Published: November 2020

Urbanization is a significant human activity affecting the environment. The study analyzes land use/land cover changes and examines built-up expansion through multi-temporal Landsat images spanning 1985 to 2015. In order to assess the pattern of urbanization, land consumption ratio (LCR) and land absorption coefficient (LAC) have been estimated. In 1985, vegetation cover occupied 54.70%, water bodies accounted for 22.10%, and built-up/open area accounted for 15.80% of the total study area. However, in 2015, vegetation and water bodies reduced drastically to 42.60% and 17.90% while there was a geometric progression in built-up/open area accounting for 39.50% of the entire study area. Also, between 1985-2015, vegetation cover and water bodies declined by 0.74% and 0.63% while the built-up/open area increased at an average rate of 4.99% per annum. The analysis of land consumption ratio revealed that built-up expansion has led to a high level of consumption of vegetation cover and water bodies at the rate of 0.016, 0.007 and 0.006 in 1985, 2000 and 2015 respectively. Similarly, land absorption coefficient accounted for 0.002 and 0.005 between the periods of 1985-2000 and 2000-2015. The rate of land acquisition indicates that development is high over the 30 years leading to a decline of green areas. If the present trend continues, it will lead to severe degradation of urban micro-biome, especially wetland resources, hence the call for a proper land-use policy for Lagos and other similar megacities in Nigeria.

Hepatitis is an important liver disease caused by Hepatitis B virus (HBV). Majority of people infected with HBV are unaware, presenting symptoms only at an advanced stage of the disease. Therefore this study determines the knowledge, attitude, practice and sero-prevalence of Hepatitis B virus infection among fresh undergraduate students of Olabisi Onabanjo University, so as to detect the infection early and institute treatment. Sera from fresh undergraduate students on medical checkup were screened for Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) using Rapid Diagnostic Test strip, Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) and molecular method using Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA analysis (RAPD). Structured questionnaire was administered to obtain socio-demographic information, risk factors and knowledge of the students about Hepatitis. The awareness of HBV infection was 182 (45.5%). Major sources of information include electronic media 71 (39%), internet 64 (35%) and health workers 60 (33%). Majority of the students 352 (88%) had poor knowledge and 260 (65%) had negative attitude towards HBV infection. The prevalence of HBsAg is 12 (3%) for both the Rapid Diagnostic Test strip and ELISA methods. The presence of HBV DNA in the HBsAg positive samples also confirmed the presence of Hepatitis B virus and RAPD resolved the DNA into different polymorphic bands. The carriage of HBsAg by these students called for concern as they could be potential source of spread for the infection. There is genetic variation in the HBV DNA. Education on risk factors of Hepatitis B virus in order to prevent transmission of the virus is required.
Evaluating Progress towards Universal Health Coverage in Ukraine
Authors: Korzh Oleksii 
Published: November 2020

The healthcare system of Ukraine is characterized by low ratings, not only in terms of health outcomes, but also in terms of access to services, where one of the main obstacles is the financial problem, equity and justice, as well as the lack of implementation of measures aimed at positively stimulating the health potential of the population countries. The latest political revolution in Ukraine (2014) once again opened up the possibility of implementing a project of deep modernization of the Ukrainian state. However, at this time, we can witness the birth of an entirely new system of healthcare in Ukraine formed “from scratch”: with new priorities as well as completely new approaches and management principles. The transformation of the health care system began to develop gradually, with a focus on primary health care. Significant progress has been made over the past few years towards a human-centered model for the provision of health services. The process to build the National Health Service has started, which should fundamentally change the funding system by focusing not on beds (as was the case before) but on the principle “money follows the patient,” thereby planning to gradually transfer to insurance medicine.
The social perception of monastic life between falsity and reality in contemporary world
Authors: Nina Stănescu  
Published: November 2020

Analysis of the misled mundane perceptions of monasteries and monastic life, and finding ways to change this concepts to the appropriate social reality in order to improve relations between the mundane and the monastic population, and also to increase the role of monasteries in moral and spiritual development of adolescents and youth. The key to this problem is communion, meaning together-living, together-working and together-thinking. The great revelation of Christianity was and is that the community comes first, either the big or the small communtiy. Great empires have induced the illusion that the great things, the secrets and the keys to our lives they are somewhere above or outside the small circle of our lives.

O verdadeiro Machado De Assis? o confronto crítico de Abel Barros Baptista
Authors: Noronha Marcelo Brice Assis 
Published: November 2020

O presente artigo traz um balanço empreendido por Abel Barros Baptista dos suportes que a crítica machadiana arregimentou para consolidar uma leitura, principalmente em embate com a interpretação de Roberto Schwarz. Tentaremos destacar os apelos ficcionais que o crítico mobiliza, com a presença de um Machado de Assis fortemente calcado na verdade que o texto propõe. Disso sairá um Machado de Assis mais clean e embaralhado, talvez, num diálogo que destaca aspectos mais universalistas da obra machadiana, e em confronto direto como uma tradição, dita localista.
Palavras chave: Machado de Assis, Abel Barros Baptista, paradigma do pé atrás.
Abd al Rahman III
Authors: Rui Adailson José 
Published: November 2020

No presente artigo, tendo como fontes obras escritas, entre outros autores, por Ibn Hayan, séc. XI, e estudos recentes que tratam da história de al-Andalus, apresentamos o processo que culminou com a auto proclamação em 929 de Abd al Rahman III como califa. A partir desse ato, Córdoba passava a ser a sede do califado Omeya, dando continuidade a sua função de sede do poder iniciada no século VIII, com a implantação do emirado. Porém, a nova situação atribuída a ela em breve seria alterada, pois, uma cidade palatina foi construída – Medinat al Zahra - para ser a moradia do califa e abrigar o aparato governamental nomeado e conduzido por ele, reduzindo as intervenções e influências existentes em Córdoba.
Lengua y saberes: reflexiones desde la visión indígena
Authors: MONTERO GUTENBERG GERVASIO 
Published: November 2020

Este artículo aborda reflexiones sobre la lengua y los saberes indígenas, en particular, desde la perspectiva de la cultura ikoots y de la lengua ombeayiüts. Hablar desde la lengua y los saberes indígenas, es evidenciar una pluralidad epistémica sobre la forma de ver y concebir el mundo. La lengua y cultura son dos entes indisociables que apuntalan y dimensionan el ser y relacionarse con el cosmos y que va configurando la visión y las formas de aprender, enseñar, hacer y convivir en la vida cultural y social. Las palabras desde la lengua indígena suelen ser “polisintéticas”, por ende, no se atrapa a la realidad en el concepto mismo, sino que, sólo se intenta aproximarse a ella mediante la interpretación. Por eso, en el contexto escolar existe tensiones en la interpretación de sentido y significado de los saberes indígenas y los saberes escolares lo que hacen complejo su atención y abordaje en el aula.

Published: November 2020

A combinação de elementos meteorológicos pode afetar grandemente o desenvolvimento e o desempenho da produção nas lavouras de soja. Em condições ideais de temperatura, radiação, precipitação, vento e umidade, a exemplo, doenças podem se manifestar, como é o caso da Ferrugem Asiática (Phakopsora pachyrhizi) e exigir medidas de correção com o uso expressivo de agroquímicos. Diante desse problema, esta investigação objetivou identificar a influência de condições meteorológicas associadas a ocorrência da Ferrugem Asiática na fase assintomática em lavoura de soja da região central do estado do Rio Grande do Sul. Para a análise utilizou-se de dados de uma estação meteorológica (Pro-BASF) e de um coletor de esporos (modelo SIRGA-2000), ambos presentes na área de estudo. O resultado desta análise mostrou as características meteorológicas facilitadoras da ocorrência da doença. Estas apontam as faixas de 14C° a 26º Cº, porém, a ação mais intensa ocorre entre 19,7Cº e 24,3Cº, com tempo de molhamento foliar entre 6 a 12 horas. Tais resultados são premissas importantes para a tomada de decisão, pois podem subsidiar o momento oportuno e eficiente de aplicação de agroquímicos e minimizar os impactos ambientais da agricultura.

Convicts on the Loose in All My Sons and John Gabriel Borkman
Authors: Brucher Richard 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
This essay distinguishes several features of the Kellers' domestic tragedy in All My Sons by discussing it in light shed by John Gabriel Borkman, Ibsen's late tragedy about the family and social impacts of fraud, delusion, and denial. As well as exploring certain intertextualities—such as advice to ex-cons, excuses for business practices, problems with mothers and girlfriends, and forms of retribution—the essay takes into account the effects of repertory performance. It discusses productions of the two plays staged by the Stratford (Ontario) Festival in 2016.
Motivate or Demotivate? Factors Influencing Choice of Media as a Career
Authors: Iyer Kavitha , Siddhartha Anupam 
Published: November 2020

The choice of media as a career has conventionally not been a top priority amongst undergraduate students in India. Despite the surging need for responsible media professionals in a developing country like India, this career is not widely accepted or chosen. This research aimed at determining specific motivations among the first-year undergraduate students choosing a career in media. The same were determined through expert interactions followed by an online survey to include over 400 students pursuing an undergraduate programme at various colleges across India. The analysis showed that undergraduate media students are passionate with a deep interest in the concerned field and have an enhanced need to be different from others. They are creative, highly communicative, would like to pursue their interest and passion as well as distinguish themselves from conventional career seekers. Choice of media as a career at the undergraduate level is preferred more by female students compared to their male counterparts. Most interestingly and importantly, media as a career is mostly against the wishes of parents; the influence of parents being negative. This study contributes to a deep understanding of motivational factors and their criticalities in influencing the young generation in India. The factors can aid the educational policymakers, academicians, industry experts, and researchers to develop strategies to encourage students to choose a career in media. This research also serves as a starting point to generate discussions to change the belief and attitudes of parents towards media as a career option for their wards.
