Effect of growth regulators on productivity and quality of tomato crop under Volga delta conditions
Authors: Abdelkader M. M. , Puchkov M. Yu. 
Published: December 2019

Relevance. Tomato considered a significant vegetable crop that plays a prominent role in the field of human health. At present, there are large numbers of tomato cultivars with a wide range of morphological and sensorial characteristics which determine their use. Farmers often use some chemical substances which have similar structure and activity with endogenous plant hormone called (exogenous) as a low-cost alternative to regulate plant growth and increase yield. Thus, the use of Plant Growth Regulators (PGRs) has become an important component of the agro-technical procedures for most cultivated species.Methods. This study aims to evaluate the effect of four growth regulators (Krezacin, Chitosan, Zircon and Energene) on growth, productivity and quality of two Russian tomato varieties (Moriana and Superjol) under delta Volga conditions. Each type applied three times on both cultivars (Soaking tomato seeds before sowing, spraying on plants at vegetative phase, spraying on plants at flowering phase with three replications.Results. The results showed that; combination between Energene and cultivar Moriana enhanced the most of studied characters (Germination – 83.1%, fresh weight of Arial parts – 241.9 g, dry weight – 74.4 g, Number of № flowers/plant – 51.0, № fruits /plant – 35.6, fruit set – 69.8%, plant yield – 2.44 kg, TSS – 5.1°Brix, Content of Ascorbic Acid – 25.6 mg/100 g); Interaction between “Energene x Superjol” gave the maximum value for Plant height (85.6 cm), Fruit weight (72.6 g); while “Krezacin x Moriana” registered the highest fruit dry matter (6.77%) and Acidity (0.53%); Applying Zircon on Cultivar Moriana increased number of leaves/plant (56.8) and nitrate contents (27.6 mg/kg); the maximum LAI (150.1 cm2 ) obtained from interaction between Chitosan and cultivar Superjol whereas, “Chitosan x Moriana” treatment gave the highest level of Carotenoids (4.12%).

Use of Conjunctions in Columns by Güneri Civaoğlu: A Text-Linguistics Analysis
Authors: ÖZDEN Erkan 
Published: December 2019

Text-linguistics
investigates whether words that appear together form a text or not and today
there are some generally accepted norms called textuality criteria. Through
these, mostly examples from the literary genre are examined but it is observed
that other types of texts which are more casual and in-life are partially
neglected. Newspaper columns with hundreds of thousands of readers every day
are also worth being studied in text-linguistics. In this study, columns by
Güneri Civaoğlu were examined in terms of conjunctions. In the research,
conducted in the form of content analysis, on the one hand, it was tried to
understand which types of conjunctions were employed more in the related
columns, and on the other hand what the author intended with them. Civaoğlu
preferred additive conjunctions the most in his columns. It was generally aimed
to establish a link between the successive elements and to help each of these
elements to support each other and thus to present their ideas more
strongly. Next to addition, adversative
conjunctions were preferred and the author aimed to increase the readers’
attention and the reception of the text by using a combination of the opposite
elements with each other. Temporal and causal conjunctions were used very
rarely compared to the other two types. It was also revealed that the author
frequently placed additional emphasis on conjunctions with a unique style by
using them between two hyphens or at the beginning of a separate paragraph
alone.

Published: December 2019

This study investigates the historical development of vocational and
technical secondary education in Turkey, and addresses the conducting projects
in order to enhance vocational and technical education. The project approaches
the development of vocational and technical secondary education from
pre-republican era until the present by examining literature using collecting
method. Until 18th century, it was seen
that vocational education appeared in mentor-protégé fashion, and 18th century
onwards, foundation of vocational and technical education institutions which
merely corresponded to today’s understanding of education was observed.
Development of vocational and technical education gained importance with the
republican era, and critical studies have been done to contribute to the
quantitative and qualitative incline of technical education in spite of the
arrest points throughout the years. Studies regarding the development of
vocational and technical education have been drastically escalated especially
after 1970 with OSANOR, METGE, MTEM, MEGEP, and IKMEP projects. However,
vocational and technical education has still not reached to its desired degree
due to various reasons.

Abstract
Socialization and hydroponic business practices have been carried out through a Posdaya established by the Jember University Service Institute in Karang Anom Hamlet in Serut village, Panti District, Jember Regency. Serut village was chosen as a target in the partner village development program because it has high potential for the development of hydroponic vegetables in terms of location, community awareness and independence and has an entrepreneurial spirit. On the other hand, the results of observations also found that some residents in Karang Anom Hamlet in Serut Village, Panti District have a fish farming business that has been running for the past few years. Efforts of integrated cultivation of vegetables and fish through the Aquaponics method are expected to produce 2 products at once in a one-time production process, so that products that will benefit the local community and the community at large to meet family food and nutrition are expected. and skills in managing integrated fish and vegetable cultivation in one production process. Therefore, adequate facilities and infrastructure are needed so that the partner groups can utilize aquaponics technology. The results of the activity showed that there was a positive response from the members of the partner group which was shown by the enthusiasm of the participants in participating in a series of training from start to finish. The product has been obtained in one aquaponic production per month will produce 50 kg of catfish and 40 kg of vegetables. For 3 units of fish ponds, 150 kg of catfish and 120 kg of vegetables will be produced within 3 months.

New Long-Term Opioid Prescription-Filling Behavior Arising in the 15 Months After Orthopaedic Surgery
Authors: Orfield Noah J. , Gaddis Andrew , Russell Kyle B. , Hartman David W. , Apel Peter J. , Mierisch Cassandra 
Published: December 2019

Background:
The opioid crisis is a well-known public health issue. The risk of new long-term opioid prescription-filling behavior has been investigated after certain spinal procedures and total knee and hip arthroplasty. However, this has not been examined after many other common orthopaedic procedures. The purpose of this study was to determine the rates of long-term opioid prescription-filling behavior after common orthopaedic surgical procedures in patients who were not taking opioids preoperatively.

Methods:
This study utilized the Virginia All-Payer Claims Database (APCD), an insurance claims database with data from 3.7 to 4 million patients per year. Patients who underwent orthopaedic procedures and who had not filled an opioid prescription in the time period from 2 weeks to 1 year preceding the surgical procedure were selected for evaluation in our study. The percentage of these patients who then filled at least 10 prescriptions or a 120-day supply of opioids in the time period from 90 to 455 days following the surgical procedure was calculated for the 50 most commonly billed orthopaedic surgical procedures.

Results:
The rate of long-term opioid prescription-filling behavior in patients who were not taking opioids preoperatively for the 50 most common orthopaedic procedures was 5.3% (95% confidence interval, 5.1% to 5.5%). The highest rates were observed after spinal procedures. The lowest rates were seen after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Revision surgical procedures were found to have a significantly higher rate than primary procedures (p < 0.05). The rate was also related to increasing case complexity.

Conclusions:
New long-term opioid prescription-filling behavior is common after orthopaedic surgical procedures in patients who were not taking opioids preoperatively. Risk factors include spine surgery, revision surgery, and cases with increased complexity. Orthopaedic surgeons need to be aware of this risk.

Authors: Matsumura Noboru , Takada Yuhei , Seto Takayuki , Suzuki Taku , Iwamoto Takuji , Sato Kazuki 
Published: December 2019

Case:
A 49-year-old man and a 37-year-old man with long oblique fractures of the distal clavicle were successfully treated with cerclage wiring fixation without detachment of the trapezius and deltoid muscles and exposure of the fracture site.

Conclusions:
Long oblique fractures with the acromioclavicular and coracoclavicular ligaments being intact and attached to the distal fragment are relatively rare among distal clavicle fractures. Cerclage wiring fixation is a viable treatment option for the fixation of long oblique fractures of the distal clavicle, with good clinical results and rapid recovery of shoulder function.
Modeling Human Capital Impact on the Development of the Iraqi Oil Industry
Authors: Et al. Ali 
Published: December 2019

Iraq has the second largest proven oil reserves in the world. According to oil experts, it is expected that the Iraq's reserves to rise to 200+ billion barrels of high-grade crude.
Oil is a strategic commodity for producing and exporting countries in general, and Iraq in particular, as demonstrated by the international experience that oil is an important means to achieve economic growth, an important tool in the overall economic, social and political development. It is also an important source of hard currency for any national economy and a means to connect the local economy and the global economy. In this paper we focus our attention on selecting the best regression model that explain the effect of human capital represented by different levels of human cadres on the development of the Iraqi oil industry by employing the data of a time series consisting of 21years period. Two popular classical procedures were applied to select such model, specifically, all possible regression procedure and the stepwise regression procedures. The statistical program SPSS was employed to perform the required calculations.
Geomechanical Characterization of Unconventional Source Rocks Using Rebound-Hardness Test and Mineral Mapping
Authors: Lee Ji Soo , Jacobi David , Alnajar Zainab 
Published: December 2019

Summary
Rock strength is seldom considered important by the hydrocarbon industry to help monitor the drilling progress, evaluate wellbore stability, guide well completions, or predict the success of hydraulic fracturing in unconventional reservoirs. With respect to hydraulic fracturing, rock-elastic moduli are routinely used to evaluate stress anisotropy. However, rock strength may also be a crucial parameter to evaluate when designing hydraulic-fracturing strategies to stimulate production from the rock volume. However, because of the density of horizontal laminae comprising the rock structure within a vertical whole core, the true geomechanical anisotropy for both properties is difficult to measure from extracted core plugs. Often, core-plug drilling and extraction techniques do not produce intact core plugs to measure these parameters consistently because of the laminated rock fabric. The integrity of the rock makes it is difficult to interpret both elastic moduli and rock-strength measurements using the recovered plugs extracted from horizontal, vertical, and diagonal azimuths. To address that challenge, a new, nondestructive method is demonstrated in which rebound-hardness measurements taken across a specifically gridded, slabbed rock surface can provide an estimate of the rock strength. The collected rebound-hardness numbers (RHNs) are converted into unconfined-compressive strengths (UCSs) using an empirical algorithm. The empirical algorithm was developed using UCSs measured from core plugs correlated to RHNs measured from the face of those same core plugs. The derived UCSs are then used to represent the source rock's mechanical characteristics, which can be presented as a contour map across the surface. These results have been correlated to the mineralogy of the rock surface, quantified, and mapped using micro-X-ray-fluorescence (µ-XRF) elemental maps. Differences in UCS can then be correlated to the changing mineral content of the rock surface. This nondestructive estimation of rock strength was conducted to address the challenge of relating core-scale measurements to reservoir-scaled analysis to improve hydraulic-fracturing designs in unconventional source rocks.
The Influx-Management Envelope Considering Real-Fluid Behavior
Authors: Berg Christian , Evjen Geir Arne , Velmurugan Naveen , Culen Martin 
Published: December 2019

Summary
The influx-management envelope (IME), Culen et al. (2016), is a decision-making tool for how to deal with an influx during managed-pressure-drilling (MPD) operations that offers a substantial improvement over the traditional MPD well-control matrix (WCM). However, in the case study by Gabaldon et al. (2017), it has been found that the simplified analytical solution introduced by Culen et al. (2016) makes the IME inaccurate for many real-world applications. This paper extends the original IME that considers the gas migration in the annulus as a single bubble, without making the simplifying assumptions that are required to make the equations explicit and analytically solvable. The underlying equations that are required to develop the IME are derived from first principles, and it is shown that using realistic equations of state (EOSs) for gas, and a single-bubble-type model, the equations for the IME can be numerically solved yielding less conservative limits. The proposed approach is significantly faster than constructing the IME through high-fidelity simulations. The proposed method allows for the calculation of a peak circulating pressure at the surface and the maximum weak-point pressure for a given kick size and initial shut-in pressure, as well as a kick envelope with respect to formation limits. This makes the contributions of this paper also relevant for traditional well-control situations. The effect of considering various simplifying assumptions on the resulting IME is studied, and different scenarios that compare the results of the proposed approach with that of the original single-bubble equation for the IME (Culen et al. 2016) are presented.

Abstract
Background: To explore the relationship between radiographic spondylolisthesis and occupational factors in a case-control study nested within the Wakayama Spine Study (WSS). Methods: The WSS is a cross-sectional observational study amongst Japanese adults. All participants completed a lifetime occupational history and underwent X-rays of the lumbar spine (L1-S1) according to a pre-defined protocol. One trained surgeon graded the presence of a spondylolisthesis based upon ≥5% anterior or posterior slip at one or more levels. Cases, with lumbar spondylolisthesis, were compared with controls without, for their principal occupation and occupational exposures. Results: In total, data were available for 722 adults (245 men and 477 women), mean age 70.1 (range 53-93) years. According to the pre-defined radiographic criteria, 117 were defined with spondylolisthesis (cases), leaving 605 controls. Cases were not significantly different from controls for age, gender, BMI, smoking or alcohol intake. However, cases were more than twice as likely to report occupational driving ≥ 4 hours/day (OR 2.39, 95% CI 1.08-5.27) after adjustment for age, gender and BMI. Additionally, after stratification by age using 75 years as a cut-point, cases were more than 3-fold more likely to report having worked in the agricultural/ fishing industries (OR 3.47, 95% CI 1.29-9.29) among those aged <75 years. A reduced risk of being a case was associated with climbing slopes/steps and walking. Conclusions: A history of occupational driving and working in the agricultural/fishing industry were associated with radiographic spondylolisthesis in this cross-sectional population study. This finding requires further evaluation in longitudinal studies.

Abstract
Background
Where each patient has all three conduits of internal mammary artery (IMA), saphenous vein graft (SVG) and radial artery (RA), most confounders affecting comparison between conduits can be mitigated. Additionally, since SVG progressively fails over time, restricting patient angiography to the late period only can mitigate against early SVG patency that may have occluded in the late period.

Objectives
The primary analysis was perfect patency and secondary analysis was overall patency including angiographic evidence of conduit lumen irregularity from conduit atheroma.

Methods
Research protocol driven conventional angiography was performed for patients with at least one of each conduit of IMA, RA and SVG and a minimum of 7 years postoperative. Multivariable generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) was used. Patency excluded occluded or “string sign” conduits. Perfect patency was present in patent grafts if there was no lumen irregularity.

Results
50 patients underwent coronary angiography at overall duration postoperative 13.1±2.9, and age 74.3±7.0 years. Of 196 anastomoses, IMA 62, RA 77 and SVG 57. Most IMA were to the left anterior descending territory and most RA and SVG were to the circumflex and right coronary territories. Perfect patency RA 92.2% was not different to IMA 96.8%, P=0.309; and both were significantly better than SVG 17.5%, P<0.001. Patency RA 93.5% was also not different to IMA 96.8%, P=0.169, and both arterial conduits were significantly higher than SVG 82.5%, P=0.029. Grafting according to coronary territory was not significant for perfect patency, P=0.997 and patency P=0.289. Coronary stenosis predicted perfect patency for RA only, P=0.030 and for patency, RA, P=0.007, and SVG, P=0.032.

When both arterial conduits were combined, perfect patency, P<0.001, and patency, P=0.017, were superior to SVG.

Conclusions
All but one patent internal mammary artery or radial artery grafts had perfect patency and had superior perfect patency and overall patency compared to saphenous vein grafts.
