В Ферганской области, в рамках проекта (EU-AGRIN), реализуемого Программой развития Организации Объединенных Наций (ПРООН) совместно с Министерством сельского хозяйства Республики Узбекистан и финансируемого Европейским Союзом, изучена продуктивность и солеустойчивость нового сорта продовольственной бобовой культуры маш (Vigna radiata (L.) R.Wilczek), широко применяемой в республике. В статье приведены результаты тестирования продуктивности нового сорта маша Баркарор на староорошаемых луговых сазово-аллювиальных легко суглинистых засоленных почвах в Дангаринском районе Ферганской области Узбекистана. Исследованы свойства почв. Проверено воздействие микробиологического препарата TERIA-S и химического препарата Биосолвент на изменение показателей засоленности и плодородия почвы за период вегетации маша, при однократном орошении культуры. Изучено изменение химического состав солей и установлено, что в вариантах с применением Тeria-S и Контроль содержание сульфата кальция снизилось, а содержание сульфата магния увеличилось. В варианте с применением препарата Биосолвент, содержащего органическую кислоту, в почве снизилось содержание солей, как кальция, так и магния. Установлена статистическая значимость зависимости урожая маша от засоленности почвы для условий Ферганской области и получено уравнение, позволяющее прогнозировать урожай маша сорта Баркарор при снижении или повышении засоления почвы.
In the Fergana region, within the framework of the project (EU-AGRIN), implemented by the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) jointly with the Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic of Uzbekistan and funded by the European Union, the productivity and salt tolerance of a new variety of food legume mung bean (Vigna radiata (L.) R.Wilczek), widely used in the republic, was studied. The article presents the results of testing the productivity of a new variety of mungbean ‘Barkaror’ on old-irrigated meadow sazovo-alluvial light loamy saline soils in Danghara district of Fergana region of Uzbekistan. Soil properties were investigated. The eff ect of microbiological preparation TERIA-S and chemical preparation Biosolvent on the change of salinity and soil fertility indices during mungbean vegetation period under single irrigation was checked. The change of chemical composition of salts was studied and it was found that at TERIA-S and Control variants the content of calcium sulfate decreased, and the content of magnesium sulfate increased. On the variant with application of Biosolvent preparation containing organic acid, the content of salts both calcium and magnesium decreased in the soil. Statistical signifi cance of dependence of mungbean yield on soil salinity for conditions of Fergana region was established and an equation was obtained, which allows to predict the yield of mungbean ‘Barkaror’ variety in case of decrease or increase of soil salinity.
Transformation as a Principle of Language Development (Based on the Material of the Armenian Language)

Published: December 2024

Transformation, if all the changes that occur in a language are concentrated in it, represents the "living spirit" of its structure, which allows a huge array of all kinds of names and designations to create a dynamic world of human communication. The term has become especially used since the middle of the last century, after the publication of N. Chomsky's book "Syntactic Structures", however, it is used more in relation to syntactic structures, while not only word formation and form formation, but also syntax itself with its units are a product of transformations. If the latter are considered at the level of synchrony, they find a place in descriptive grammar and lexicology and are defined no more than units of the language system. If they are considered in diachrony, they clearly indicate the development of language and linguistic thinking. Since this is the first time the problem is posed in this way, the paper attempts to show the fruitfulness and importance of studying transformations in the history of one language, using the example of Armenian, described from the very beginning of the 5th century AD. The results, we think, are of great interest to the philosophy of language and the science of the development of thinking.

Published: December 2024

Introduction: Virtual care has recently gained momentum yet remains underutilized for preoperative assessment. We applied implementation science methodology to the development of a virtual preoperative assessment pathway. Methods: We conducted a two-phase formative evaluation of a multidisciplinary virtual preoperative assessment. In phase 1, we conducted semi-structured interviews with patients, family members, health care providers, and decision makers to explore their experiences and perceptions of virtual care and preoperative assessment. We performed thematic analysis using the Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services (PARIHS) framework to identify factors influencing the implementation of virtual preoperative assessments. In phase 2, evidence-based strategies from the Expert Recommendations for Implementing Change (ERIC) were matched to PARIHS themes and rated for importance and feasibility by stakeholders using Go-Zone analysis. Results: Forty stakeholders were interviewed, including 12 patients or family members, 18 health care providers, and 10 decision makers. Eight themes and 49 subthemes were identified to focus the implementation of virtual preoperative assessment. Twelve implementation strategies were judged to be most important and feasible by stakeholders: develop a formal implementation blueprint, identify early adopters, identify and prepare champions, involve patients and family members, conduct local consensus discussions, build a coalition, develop educational materials, distribute educational materials, prepare patients to be active participants, revise professional roles, re-examine the implementation, and stage implementation scaleup. Discussion: We identified 12 evidence-based strategies to guide the implementation of virtual multidisciplinary preoperative assessments. Our findings can be used to guide implementation of this care innovation in other settings.
Academic half-day curricula in Canadian general internal medicine programs: A descriptive study
Authors: Chan Stephanie E. , Montague Steven J. 
Published: December 2024

Introduction: Canadian general internal medicine (GIM) subspecialty programs offer classroom-based teaching through academic half days (AHDs) to supplement clinical teaching. It is unclear how GIM programs can optimize AHDs to support trainees with heterogenous career paths, as nationwide guidance on AHD implementation is lacking. Methods: All 13 English-speaking Canadian GIM programs were invited to participate in a short-answer survey assessing 6 aspects of AHD. Two years of AHD topics from each program were extracted from provided curricular calendars and sorted into 10 categories. Results: The response rate was 100%. The assessed aspects of AHD, including the medium of delivery, total curricula time, frequency of AHD, and delegation of teaching and scheduling responsibilities differed across programs. Regarding the average total curricular time, most was spent on medical knowledge acquisition (30%) and self-directed time (35%). Most schools incorporated sessions on transition to practice ( n = 13/13; 100%) and evidence-based medicine ( n = 11/13; 85%). Fewer schools had simulation sessions ( n = 5/13; 38%) and point-of-care ultrasound teaching ( n = 5/13; 38%). Discussion: Classroom-based teaching is heterogeneously implemented across English-speaking Canadian GIM programs. Future studies exploring GIM trainees’ perceptions of AHDs’ purpose and effectiveness could provide valuable insights into how programs can best support their learners.

Published: December 2024

Introduction: Silver nanoparticles are targeted for antimicrobial and cytotoxic properties to combat antimicrobial resistance and chemoresistance. Green synthesis of silver nanoparticle method is widely used because it is environmental-friendly using biological substances as reducing and stabilising agents. Psychotria malayana Jack is rich with a wide range of phytochemicals that able to synthesise silver nanoparticle. Methods: The leaves of P. malayana Jack was extracted with ethanol-water solvent via ultrasound assisted extraction and the extract was analysed using liquid chromatography- mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The extract was then added to silver nitrate solution for 24 hours. The formation of AgNPs-PM was analysed using UV-visible spectrophotometry, scanning electron microscopy, zeta particle size and zeta potential analysis. The synthesised AgNPs-PM were tested for their cytotoxicity on human colorectal adenocarcinoma cells (Caco-2) and human epithelial breast adenocarcinoma cells (MCF-7) using 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) colourimetric assay. For antibacterial activity, the nanoparticles were tested on Gram-negative Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Gram-positive Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus using disc diffusion method. Results: AgNPs-PM were successfully synthesised using P. malayana Jack extract. LC-MS analysis showed the presence of flavonoids, amino acids and heterocyclic compounds . An attempt in cytotoxic activity test showed that at concentrations between 12.5 µg/ml to 400 µg/ml of AgNPs-PM, no cytotoxic activity was observed. Whereas, in antibacterial assay, 2 mg/ml AgNPs-PM tested on the bacterial strains showed weak inhibition on their growth. Conclusion: AgNPs-PM has been successfully synthesised and characterised. However, the AgNPs-PM possess low bioactivities of cytotoxic and antibacterial activities.

Published: December 2024

Background: Hypertension is a major public health problem worldwide. Hypertension is a risk factor for stroke, renal failure and cardiovascular disease and has an impact on hematological parameters. Hypertension with abnormal hematological parameters enhance end-organ damage. The aim of this study was to explore whether red cell indices parameters (MCV, MCH and MCHC) were associated with hypertension or not.
Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional comparative study was carried out in the Department of Physiology in collaboration with OPD Department of Medicine in Rajshahi Medical College from January 2019 to December 2019 among the hypertensive patients and normal adults in Rajshahi citywith ethical clearance from respective IERB. Samples were collected by purposive sampling technique. Pre-designed, validated, structured questionnaire was used to gather information from 60 hypertensive and 60 normotensive respondents residing in Rajshahi City. In both group, sex ratio was equal. Unpaired ‘t’ test was performed to compare the red cell indices between two groups. Data were analyzed by SPSS software, version-24. A p-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: In hypertensive group, more than half (53.3%) of the respondents had systolic blood pressure between 140 to 159 mmHg and less than three-quarter (73.3%) had diastolic blood pressure between 100 to 120 mmHg. In the normotensive group, more than half (51.7%) of the respondents had systolic blood pressure between 110 to 119 mmHg and less than two-thirds (63.3%) had diastolic blood pressure between 70 to 79 mmHg. In both hypertensive and normotensive group, the majority of the respondent’s MCV level was 76-94 fL, MCH 27-32 Pg and MCHC 31-35 gm/dl. The hematological parameters including mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) were significantly increased in the hypertensive group compared to the normotensive group (p<0.001, p<0.001 and p=0.001 respectively).
Conclusion: By regular investigation of Red Cell Indices, it is possible to diagnose early hypertension, and appropriate measures might be taken to prevent hypertension related complications. Information from the study might be helpful for the concerned people to take appropriate measures for hypertensive patients and the basis for further in-depth study on this issue.

Published: December 2024

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a heterogeneous condition characterized by hyperglycaemia because of defects in insulin secretion, insulin resistance/action or combination of both of these factors. Many population-based studies established the association of shoulder pain and/or stiffness with diabetes mellitus. Adhesive capsulitis (AC) is the progressive painful restriction in range of movement and can reduce function and quality of life.
Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional observational study was carried out in the outpatient department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Dhaka Medical College & Hospital (DMCH), Dhaka from July 2021 to June 2022with ethical clearance from respective IERB. A total of 122 diabetic patients with adhesive capsulitis attending the study place were selected by purposive sampling. The patient’s pain was recorded using the visual analogue scale (VAS). Movements of the affected shoulder joint were measured by using a goniometer. The validated Bangla version of Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) was used to assess functional status. Variables were expressed as mean ± standard deviation (SD), frequency and percentage.
Results: In this cross-sectional observational study, a total of 122 diabetic patients with adhesive capsulitis were included in which, 60 patients (49.2%) were male and the rests 62 (50.8%) were female. The mean age of the patients was 51.9 ± 8.6 years. Among the patients, 47 (38.5%) were from the 45-54 years age group and 41 (33.6%) were from 55-64 years age group. In this study 74 patients (60.7%) had adhesive capsulitis on their right shoulder and the rests 48 (39.3%) had adhesive capsulitis on their left shoulder in this study. Conclusion: Adhesive capsulitis is one of the most common musculoskeletal disorders in patients with diabetes mellitus. It is recommended that diabetic patients should always be screened for the presence of rheumatic complications since early recognition lessens the chances of irreversible damage.

Non-finite-based remote past in Udmurt
Authors: Saraheimo Mari 
Published: December 2024

The article deals with three constructions in Udmurt based on the past participle, combined with the past tense copula (valPST1/vi̮lemPST2). The aim of the study is to describe the functions of the following constructions: 1) the experiential construction + val/vi̮lem, 2) the resultative construction + val/vi̮lem and 3) the past participle + val/vi̮lem. These constructions are examined through the theory of perfects and pluperfects and whether the constructions carry out functions typical of those of a (plu)perfect. The results of the study show that the constructions in question carry out functions typical of pluperfects, such as past relevance perfect, past experiential and counterfactual functions. The construction formed with the past participle is found to be evidentially neutral and by and large corresponding to the first finite remote past, albeit declining in use and stylistically nuanced. The so-called resultative construction, on the other hand, may acquire various meanings depending on the semantics of the verb, among them past resultative action, past relevance perfect, and past continuative. Contrary to previous descriptions, the resultative construction may also occur with an external subject argument. Finally, the constructions also carry out similar discourse-pragmatic functions as their finite counterparts, such as attenuating questions, expressing assertivity, mirativity, and marking a pre-mirative context.

Published: December 2024

IntroductionCurrent hearing aids have an abundance of feature options and technologies. It is important to understand the clinical impact of hearing aid technology selection and how to individualize fittings to optimize hearing aid performance according to listening environment. To probe the naturalistic listening experiences researchers can use in-situ outcome measures. Survey-based real-world assessments can increase knowledge of hearing aid users' everyday scenarios, beyond the limits of lab-based scenarios. This study aimed to assess the relationship between subjective preference ratings of adult listeners and hearing aid technology level using Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA). A secondary research question explored survey completion as a function of real-world participation in socially involved situations.MethodsThis study aimed to capture and assess in-the-moment listening situations and participant preference for hearing aid technology levels, using EMA through an app-based survey. Surveying was completed indoors (at home), indoors (away from home); and outdoors, and while in a listening situation with at least one communication partner. Fourteen older adults, aged 61–82 years, who were experienced bilateral hearing aids users were included in this study. Participants completed a 2-week acclimatization period wearing study-provided hearing aids, and a 2-week data collection period. In-situ surveying was used to evaluate technology-level preference in real-world listening situations with at least one communication partner. Survey data captured in-the-moment details surrounding environment, activity, and listening preference. Mixed methods were used to analyze the data, including Bayesian analyses for preference data and content analysis for text-based survey responses, including the use of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health to guide activity categorization.ResultsAcross a wide variety of categorized activities, participants demonstrated a preference for mid- to high-level hearing aid technologies when compared to the lowest level. Technology preference also varied according to reported activity location.DiscussionThe use of in-situ surveying provided a broader understanding of hearing aid users' listening environments when conversing with one or more communication partners and related technology preferences. EMA was found to be a feasible method of data collection for this cohort and may help guide clinical, person-centered selection of technology level.
Inhibition of leukotrienes and their potential role in type 1 diabetes pathogenesis: implications for montelukast as a therapeutic agent: a case report
Authors: Fatulla Pavel , Ström Ingela , Lingblom Christine , Lind Marcus 
Published: December 2024

IntroductionType 1 diabetes involves immune-mediated destruction of insulin-producing beta cells, with eosinophils potentially playing a significant role. Recent studies suggest that leukotriene inhibition might influence this process. This case report presents a novel observation of montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist, reducing insulin requirements in a patient with Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA). A 55-year-old male with LADA experienced substantial reductions in insulin dosage when treated with montelukast for respiratory symptoms. Initially diagnosed with LADA in 2018, the patient had been on insulin therapy. Montelukast therapy, initiated due to respiratory symptoms, led to a 60.5% reduction in insulin requirements which increased upon discontinuation. A subsequent montelukast course resulted in an 87.9% insulin reduction. Although the insulin-lowering effect diminished with continued montelukast use, the patient reported reduced postprandial hyperglycemia. Blood tests indicated stable glucose levels despite reduced insulin doses.ConclusionsThis case suggests that montelukast may reduce insulin needs in type 1 diabetes patients, potentially through its anti-inflammatory effects on eosinophils. These findings highlight the need for further research into montelukast’s role in type 1 diabetes management and its potential to preserve beta-cell function or reduce insulin dependence.
