Protein DEAD-box CshA có vai trò quan trọng trong các hoạt động biểu hiện gen của tế bào. Chức năng của các domain trong protein DEAD-box cần được nghiên cứu để hiểu rõ hơn hoạt động của protein này. Trong nghiên cứu này, protein tái tổ hợp CshA và CshA-ΔCTE (loại bỏ C-terminus) đã được tinh sạch và kiểm tra các hoạt tính về khả năng hình thành liên kết với cơ chất DNA mạch đơn và mạch đôi. Các hoạt tính trao đổi mạch DNA và bắt cặp DNA trong các điều kiện có và không có sự hiện diện của ATP cũng được xác định. CshA đã thể hiện hoạt tính liên kết với cơ chất DNA theo phương thức không phụ thuộc vào ATP, trong khi CshA-ΔCTE thể hiện ái lực liên kết thấp và không chặt chẽ với cơ chất mạch đơn và mạch đôi DNA. Sự loại bỏ C-terminus của CshA đã làm mất hoạt tính trao đổi mạch DNA và hoạt tính bắt cặp DNA của CshA. Như vậy, C-terminus đóng vai trò quan trọng trong việc gia tăng ái lực liên kết với cơ chất DNA và đảm bảo hoạt tính trao đổi mạch DNA cũng như hoạt tính bắt cặp DNA của CshA.

Getting Started with the Mainstreaming of Therapeutic Jurisprudence in Criminal Cases: Tips on How and Where to Begin
Authors: Wexler David 
Published: January 2021

Therapeutic Jurisprudence (“TJ”) is a perspective that looks at the law itself as a potential therapeutic (or anti-therapeutic) agent. Under TJ, the "law" consists of legal rules and procedures as well as the practices and techniques of legal actors (judges, lawyers, therapists and others) working in a legal environment. TJ is best known for its use in special 'problem-solving courts', such as drug treatment courts and mental health courts. Now, however, an effort is being made –internationally– to “mainstream” TJ: to bring therapeutic jurisprudence practices into the “ordinary” criminal justice legal system. The current monograph offers a guide to how the mainstreaming project should proceed, and, especially, offers some suggestions for where in the process we might most profitably begin.

Authors: Vozmediano Sanz Laura , San Juan Guillén César 
Published: January 2021

En el presente trabajo se exploran las posibilidades de los Sistemas de Información Geográfica (SIG) para el estudio de los aspectos espaciales relacionados con el miedo al delito en contextos urbanos, y se presenta un caso concreto: el estudio del miedo al delito en Donostia­San Sebastián. A partir de encuestas a una muestra de residentes, se estudió la distribución del delito objetivo en la ciudad, a partir de datos judiciales, y la distribución del miedo al delito en tres escenarios urbanos distintos. Con estos datos se construyeron los mapas de criminalidad y miedo al delito en la ciudad, comprobando que la percepción subjetiva no era coincidente en el espacio con la criminalidad registrada judicialmente.

En el periódico holandés NCR Handelsblad del 25 de octubre de 2004 pueden verse en portada dos titulares aparentemente contradictorios: “A la gente le da miedo una sociedad endurecida” y “Cohen (el alcalde de Ámsterdam, del RvS) quiere ordenar la prohibición de la conducta incívica”. El primero de los artículos es acerca del Informe bianual Cultura y Sociedad del año 2004 en el que se entrevista a unas dos mil personas sobre sus deseos y expectativas para la Holanda del 2020. Según dicho informe, existe disparidad entre lo que la gente desea y las que, de hecho, son sus expectativas para el futuro. Desearían una sociedad con mayor cohesión social y más solidaria, pero se temen que ésta será cada vez más competitiva y que el clima social continuará endureciéndose.

Metformin, Oxidative Stress and Male Infertility: Way Forward
Authors: Alam Faiza , Nida Farooqui  , Rehana Rehman  
Published: January 2021

Madam,
There is an increased prevalence of infertility in male population. With reference to a variety of mechanisms, oxidative stress (OS) is responsible for alteration in structural and functional integrity of sperm leading to altered sperm parameters, hence leading to infertility (1).
Metformin though proved to be a first-line hypoglycemic agent has demonstrated antioxidant properties in numerous tissues. It inhibits the mitochondrial respiratory chain in the liver, which leads to stimulation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)-dependent as well as AMPK-independent mechanisms (2). Metformin triggers alanine production within the Sertoli cells (SCs,) balances the NADH/NAD+ equilibrium and provides antioxidant environment. This drug is a treatment of choice in treating females with Polycystic Ovaries (PCOS) on the basis of its capability to reduce insulin sensitivity as well as angiogenesis through the nuclear factor ?B (NF-?B) pathway which renders it to reduce oxidant species, thus improving the reproductive environment (3).

Introduction: Since mechanical neck pain has become a common problem, physiotherapists’ role in reducing symptoms caused by mechanical neck pain varies such as muscle energy technique and deep transverse friction. Based on the references, mechanical neck pain defined as a condition non-radicular or local pain which increased pain intensity during movement. The study aims to understand whether deep transverse friction and muscle energy technique are effective to reduce pain the mechanical neck pain.Method: The study used the secondary data through article review which focuses on the journals and articles related to the muscle energy technique and deep transverse friction in the mechanical neck pain. Results: The application and method of muscle energy technique are aimed at normalizing the structure of dysfunctional tissue, such as the shortening of muscles, which indirectly gives a direct effect on the joint. It is suggested as a method to improve the mobility of the joint. Besides, to reduce pain through pain modulation, deep transverse friction was applicable to provide it at the level of the supra-spinal to release endorphins, enkephaline, and cortisol. Conclusion: Either muscle energy technique or deep transverse friction are shown a good effect to reduce pain, neck disability, and increase ROM of the cervical joint in patients with mechanical neck pain. Besides, deep transverse friction has also reducing spasm/tightness at the cervical joint level in patients with mechanical neck pain.

Authors: Putri Yulian Pristanti Sani , Yulianti Atika 
Published: January 2021

Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease of the synovial joint marked by chondropathy with the proliferation of new bone and also renovation of joint contour. Knee OA is associated with age, gender, and excessive weight conditions, conservatively treated using physical therapy intervention such as Kinesio taping and retro walking exercise to enhance the range of motion of knee joint. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of Kinesio taping and retro walking exercise on the knee range of motion in older people with osteoarthritis.
Methods: This study used quasi-experimental two groups pre-test and post-test design, which was involving 30 respondents by using purposive sampling as a sample collection technique. Additionally, the sample was divided into two intervention groups. Furthermore, the obtained data were analyzed using the Mann Whitney test.
Results: After the intervention period, pre-test and post-test within-group analysis showed a significant improvement of knee ROM in the Kinesio taping group (P<0.001) and retro walking group (P=0.019). Furthermore, the analysis for mean differences of pre-test and post-test between-group comparison accepted the study hypothesis that Kinesio taping had a bigger effect than retro walking exercise to improve knee ROM (P=0.01).
Conclusion: Both Kinesio taping and retro walking exercises were influencing ROM improvement in the elderly. However, the mean result showed that Kinesio taping was giving more influence in enhancing ROM as compared to retro walking exercise.

Authors: Rahman Muhammad Abdul , Hakem Zareena 
Published: January 2021

There is increased need for solution to communicate larger data over the PON network. In this study, two problems including bottleneck and the capacity load problem were investigated and based on this, a solution is proposed. For methodology, N number of Nodes is used for ringbased architecture which represent the complete PON system. The nodes are the save points are created for monitoring the nodes and tracking their network faults. The distance from each node is equal and there are N number of checkpoints. The source and receiver node are selected dynamically. A ring-based network model is proposed with the optimized solution, less data loss and higher speed. The proposed work sets a scenario which is based on ring topology with 08 number of nodes with same number of save points. 800 m * 800 m is the dimension of the topography. We found that time it took to transfer a packet is about 1.01 second. For solving the bottleneck problem, the tree-based network model is used and accordingly, 4 sub-networks are taken in a hierarchal way. Comparison of results based on packet delivery shows that proposed model has better time factor in terms of sending data compared to the existing system.

Published: January 2021

This paper examined the practices of news and source usage in Ethiopian Television (ETV). It assessed news and source selection criteria of the media organization. The study also focused on the major source of news and speakers in the news. Besides, factors affecting news and source selection was also another objective of the study. The study used mixed research method. As a result, quantitative content analysis and an in-depth interview were used as tools of data gathering. It employed purposive sampling to select key informants for the study. For the media content sample, the study focused on ETV’s prime time news at 8:00 PM. The findings of the study showed that the major criteria of news selection in ETV were based on the value of the news in building the image of the government. Sources of the news were government officials. The majority of the speakers in the news production by ETV staff reporters were government officials, especially those found at federal level. It was also found that there is lack of journalistic independence in the media. Journalists were influenced to report the positive sides of government and conceal the wrong doings of government officials. Therefore, in the way to the truth as diversified views are very crucial, Ethiopian Television should take the necessary measure to treat varies views in its news stories.
ETHICAL DILEMMAS OF PRO SOCIAL TELEVISION
Authors: Ukka Ibrahim T.I. 
Published: January 2021

The use of television to promote social development has generated ethical dilemmas that will affect several billion television viewers during 1990s. Development is defined as a widely participatory process of directed social change in a society, intended to bring about both social and material advancement (Rogers, 1976). Television has a greater potential impact on social development now than ever before in human history. Several countries are systematically producing television programs with prosocial messages. Prosocial television content refers to televised performances that depict cognitive, affective, or behavioral activities considered to be socially desirable by most members of a television audience (Rushton, 1982). Ethical concerns regarding the responsible use of television are prompting television producers and officials to reduce the antisocial effects of television by increasing the prosocial content of television programs.

Authors: Nasse Théophile Bindeouè , Sawadogo Yvonne Marie 
Published: January 2021

The concept of internal equity in the customer relationship management is often overlooked by Burkina companies, causing thereby a reduction in profitability. Equity and ethical marketing practices are essential to the survival of Burkina companies, especially in this context of the globalization of the economy, where fair trade values are advocated, and competition is tough. On the basis of this observation, to help identify the contribution that fair business-to-customer practices could bring not only to the economic development of enterprises, but also to the eradication of poverty in the subsistence markets, this article presents the results of an exploratory research concerning three companies in Burkina Faso (two small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and a very small company (VSE)). The results show current practices as well as challenges and limitations observed within these companies. The data collection was carried out using an interview guide addressed to the customers of these three companies in Burkina Faso. The data is collected with an audio voice recorder and then transcribed by hand using SONY audio software. The total number of interviewees is 51. The research has helped to make our contribution to the development of literature on markets livelihood which is also poorly documented and to make some suggestions to explore and to develop internal equity practices. The results show that internal equity has an influence on customer satisfaction and thus on sales’ growth.

Almost 85% of epilepsy patients which is a common neurolotical disease lives in developing world. Mostly the disease start in childhoold in more than half o the cases. Long term use of antiepileptic drugs may alter serum zinc level. The purpose of the present study was to assess the serum zinc level in childhood epilepsy treated with long-term Anti Epileptic Drug (AED). This cross-sectional study was carried out in the outdoor and indoor patient department of Pediatric neurology, BSMMU during the period from March 2013 to August 2013. Sample size was one hundred, among these fifty were case e.g. epileptic child who had received anti epileptic drugs (Carbamazepine and/or Valproic acid) for more than three months and fifty werecontrol e.g. newly diagnosed epileptic child, who have not yet received antiepileptic drugs. In this study, among100 epileptic child, mean serum zinc level in case group was 0.36(±0.20)(µg/ml)and incontrol group was 0.52(±0.26) (µg/ml),which was statistically significant (p<0.05). The use of one drug or multiple drugs in the treatment of epileptic patients has made the significant low serum zinc level.

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection of the parts of urinary tract of the body which include the lower and upper tract. The upper tract of the system include ureters and kidneys; while, lower tract include prostate in males, bladder, and urethra. If the infection is in the upper segment in the tract, it is known as kidney infection. Whereas, lower urinary tract is known as cystitis or bladder infection. Two common type of infection are based on bacteria or fungus. In this study, the objective was to test the bacterial UTIs etiology in the area of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The focus was to identify the proper antibiotics, epidemiology especially high-risk groups as well as positivity rate in terms of gender and age. The methodology of the study was collection and analysis of Urine specimen samples using the sterile container for later sensitivity and culture purpose. Isolated organisms were removed using different biochemical tests and proper antibiograms were found by using the AST or dish diffusion method. Our results based on sampling of 1402 specimens collected and tested showed positivity rate of UTI among 23.25 % (326 out of 1402 patients). The most common caused bacteria causing UTI was Escherichia Coli (E.Coli). the other commonly found bacteria included Enterococcoi, proteus, Klebsiella, Staphylococci, and Enterobacter. Our results confirmed that there was more presence of UTI among female compare to male sample. In terms of age, the common age group was between 22 to 28 years. The Tetracyclin was found to be most resistant antibiogram where as Chloramphenicol was found to be the most sensitive.
