Abstract
Diabetes, adjudged a risk factor for coronavirus infectious disease 2019 (COVID-19), can be managed through consumption of plantain and its associated products. Plantain is usually processed into flour and other storable/value-added products due to its very short shelf-life. To process unripe plantain pulps into flour, there is a need for size reduction after drying. This paper presents the development and performance evaluation of a size reduction unit for pulverizing, sieving and conveying material to the next processing stage in a plantain flour process plant. Its model was developed using solidworks application software. After design analysis, the model was simulated to establish its suitability/adequacy for fabrication. The pulverizer was fabricated using locally available materials. Its performance evaluation gave 400kg/h throughput, 96% crushing efficiency and 96% efficiency based on the required particle size. The average particle size of flour obtained was 236μm using 500μm screen. Effect of cyclone control-valve on the pulverizer’s overall efficiency was also investigated by allowing it to operate when the valve was completely closed, partially closed and fully opened. It was observed that the control-valve’s positions significantly influenced the machine’s performance/efficiency. It can thus be inferred that the position of cyclone control-valve has significant effect on a pulverizer’s efficiency/performance. Hence, leaving control-valve fully opened during operation would help a pulverizer perform with optimum efficiency, as the pulverizer was able to convey material, efficiently in that position, to the next processing stage during performance evaluation.

Published: December 2021

Abstract
The paper deals with the topic of social responsibility in selected organizations in the Czech Republic. This topic is mainly associated with the requirements for economical and ecological production. In reality, however, this area has a much broader meaning. In the introduction, the paper deals with the definition of corporate social responsibility, the importance of this industry, the description of stake-holders and the basic principles of the whole concept. Furthermore, the paper deals with the benefits of implementing corporate social responsibility in the overall concept of the organization and describes the most common barriers to the adoption of the concept of CSR in organizations. The next part analyses the current attitude of organizations to CSR in the form of a questionnaire survey. Organizations from various areas of the private as well as the public sector were involved in the survey. The questionnaire is divided into three groups within the questions asked to the respondents. The first part of the questions is focused on the identification of organizations, focus size and other information. The second part focuses on awareness of corporate social responsibility and the last part deals with issues related to strengthening awareness of CSR.

Abstract
During the process of regeneration of machine parts, certain phenomena occur that have a significant impact on the loss of their working ability. Hereditary properties are expressed by the interdependence of geometric and physical-mechanical-metallurgical parameters of gear teeth created during the technological operations of regeneration of worn teeth by hard-facing. The influence of the type of additional material (electrodes and their combinations) on the tribological characteristics of welded gear teeth was considered, whereby the so-called hard additional materials were applied. Those are the additional materials that give the required surface hardness of the teeth without subsequent thermal or thermochemical treatment. This research did not involve the regeneration of specific worn gears removed from machine systems, but the new gears were made, which were then damaged and then regenerated by hard-facing using the shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) procedure. Thus, all the tested gears were made of the same material, belonged to one batch and were machined on the same machines with the same machining regimes. The tests were performed on samples made of 20MnCr5 steel for cementation, on a tribometer by the “block on disc” method, which was designed to simulate the operating conditions of coupled teeth of concrete gears in the exploitation conditions. Based on the conducted tribological tests, the average coefficients of friction and topography of the surfaces were determined by measuring the wear trace and it was defined which additional materials give the best tribological characteristics of the surfaces of gears regenerated by hard-facing.

Authors: Tunjungsari Komang Ratih 
Published: December 2021

ABSTRACT
As one of the iconic Buddhist temple and touristic site in Central of Java, Indonesia, Borobudur has developed its status into UNESCO World Heritage since 1991. This means the project for Borobudur’s development become in continuity with the number of tourists visit each day. In one side, the development should not harm the site otherwise, it should be conserved the site and rethinking about carrying capacity of the tourists. The main concept of this paper used for development of Borobodur is as visitor attraction management, four realms of visitor experience that should be counted when developing a visitor attraction, namely entertainment, education, aesthetic and escapism. Literature review mostly used for the methodology of this paper and also explorative description from some sources. The author will develop the temple compounds of Borobudur and the image of the temple compounds will be seen as historical, religious and cultural values that can be enjoyed as the quality tourism toward the international visitors. The objectives of developing the temple compounds’ are not only to pursue the number of the visitors but also to expand the value of sustainable cultural to enhance the visitors’ experience. From the concepts, development should be delivered in the way of marketing, in dealing with the competitors, bringing the sustainable concept toward visitor’s experience and working with the ethics of UNESCO.

PRELIMINARY ASSESSMENT OF A BLACK CURRANT NEW HYBRID MATERIAL FOR RESISTANCE TO BIOTIC FACTORS
Authors: Bakhotskaya А. Yu. , Knyazev S. D. 
Published: December 2021

Resistance to diseases and pests is one of the main tasks of a breeder when creating varieties of cultivated plants. On perennial plants, which include black currants, diseases have a significant impact on the quantity and quality of the formed yield, as well as on the laying of the subsequent yield. Constant screening of new breeding material allows not only to select and isolate promising highly resistant forms at the early stages of ontogenesis, but also, as a result, to speed up the entire selection process of creating immune varieties. As a result of our research, we found that the bulk of the studied hybrid seedlings in 2019-2020 were resistant to American powdery mildew and columnar rust.
High resistance to American powdery mildew is characteristic of derivatives of glutinous currant and the Scandinavian subspecies of black currant. Also, the derivatives of glutinous currant are characterized by high resistance to columnar rust.

Published: December 2021

It was determined during the study that a technogenic succession of perennial gramineous motley grass phytocenosis took place on reclaimed agricultural lands near mining company. The goal of a study was to estimate the shift in botanical composition and productivity of perennial agrophytocenosis on reclaimed fallow soils under aerial technogenic influence in Karelia. Over the last three years perennial gramineous herbs (Bromopsis inermis L., Phleum pratense L.) and motley grass (Urtica dioica L., Anthriscus sylvestris L., Chamaenerion angustifolium L.) are dominant in phyto-association. As we move away from mining location (100, 200, 300 meters) a gradual natural shift in vegetation takes place. The quantity of gramineous herbs decreases (from 77,8 to 42,9%) and the quantity of motley grass increases (from 21,2 to 56,8%) as compared to a control plot (16,5 and 82,9% accordingly). Low level of rainfall at the first half of summer, which is normal for Karelian climate, presence of polluting substances in soil and on surface caused substantial decline in growth of valuable fodder such as Bromopsis inermis (linear indicator 20,7 – 31,8 centimeters) as compared to background conditions (40,2 centimeters). Also, the mentioned above circumstances caused increase of total yield of perennial grass (13,2 – 16,4 – 22,0 tons per hectare; background – 28,0 tons per hectare) as we move away from mining location.

Published: December 2021

ABSTRACT

Background
Exercise is part of the general recommendations for care of people with most arthropathies or connective tissue diseases, but it does not feature specifically in the clinical guidelines for management of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and systemic sclerosis (SSc) by rheumatology practitioners. In this study, we sought to explore rheumatologists' (RHs') and rheumatology nurses' (RNs') perspectives and use of exercise interventions for adults with SLE or SSc.

Methods
Semistructured interviews were conducted with Australian RHs and RNs online using Zoom (video conferencing software). Interviews were transcribed verbatim, then coded and analyzed using NVivo for content analysis of themes.

Results
Seventeen participants completed the interviews (RHs n = 12, RNs n = 5). Five themes were identified: rheumatology practitioners perceive that (1) exercise is beneficial for adults with SLE or SSc, especially in managing fatigue, pain, and wellbeing; (2) exercise presents some general, structural, and disease-related barriers for adults with SLE or SSc; (3) rheumatology practitioners are confident in providing general exercise advice but lack time and confidence in prescribing exercise; (4) rheumatology practitioners' concerns about exercise are limited to those with heart and lung disease, inflamed joints, ulcerated fingertips, and severe contractures; and (5) to facilitate safe and attainable exercise, rheumatology practitioners recommend long-term, supervised, gradual, and affordable exercise options. There were no clear differences identified between the views of RNs and RHs.

Conclusion
Rheumatology practitioners require information and options for long-term and affordable exercise for adults with SLE or SSc that are supervised, individualized, and focus on a gradual progressive approach.
A Primer on Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses: Part I
Authors: Fisher Stuart , Pearson Melissa J , Smart Neil A. 
Published: December 2021

ABSTRACT
The conduct of systematic reviews and meta-analyses are a cornerstone source of information required for evidence-based practice in all medical and allied health professions. Meta-analyses are important in the exercise sciences because, for instance, sometimes many small underpowered studies may suggest the optimal treatment deviates from the generic guidelines that suggest 30 minutes to 60 minutes of moderate intensity aerobic activity 3 to 5 times weekly, supplemented by 1 or more sessions of resistance exercise. A systematic review and meta-analysis can help by combining studies to increase power and provide an answer. The signature method of presenting results of meta-analyses is the forest plot, and an ability to interpret these data and the associated funnel plots are essential to the practice of evidence-based exercise programming. This work describes the processes of systematic review and meta-analysis and informs the reader on how these works may be presented, interpreted, and applied. Some examples from the field of kinesiology and exercise physiology are presented to illustrate how the results of a meta-analysis may influence evidence-based practice.

Published: December 2021

Background: Limb salvage surgery with or without radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy is the mainstay of treatment of Soft Tissue Sarcoma (STS). Though, many studies are found regarding the demographics and result of such malignancy from other parts of the world, such data is not available from our country. This study aimed to analyze the demographic data and functional outcome of STS treated with limb salvage surgery.
Methods: It is a retrospective review of 16 cases of soft tissue sarcoma of extremities and trunk managed with limb salvage surgery followed by adjuvant radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy in indicated cases from 2012 to 2017. Demographic data and functional score after 2 years of surgery were analysed and presented.
Results: There were 14 male and 2 female cases of STS with mean age of 32.88 years. The most common STS was liposarcoma (37.5%) followed by rhabdomyosarcoma (25%) and synovial sarcoma (18.8%). Extremity and lower limb were the most common sites. Mean MSTS functional score at the last follow up was 24.56 (81.83%) with range from 19-29 (63.33%-96.66%). There were good to excellent results in 13 cases (81.25%) and moderate result in 3 cases (18.75%) according to MSTS functional score. There was positive correlation of MSTS with age, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and negative correlation with grade of tumor.
Conclusions: This study showed good to excellent functional results in 81.25% of cases as per Musculoskeletal Tumor Society Score (MSTS) with positive correlation with radiotherapy, chemotherapy, age and negative correlation with grade of tumor.

Published: December 2021

An attempt has been made to calibrate magnitudes of local earthquakes recorded by National Seismological Centre (NSC) of the Department of Mines and Geology (DMG), Nepal with other magnitudes of corresponding earthquakes [eported by International Seismological Centre (ISC), UK, and United States Geological Survey (USGS), USA. Local magnitudes (ML) are used from NSC, corresponding surface wave magnitudes (Ms) and body-wave magnitudes (Mb) are used from catalog of ISC and moment magnitude (Mw) is used from catalog of the USGS.
After regression analysis, it has been found that the local magnitude s (ML) reported by NSC are slightly larger than Ms, Mb and Mw in all cases. ML, on average, is larger by an amount of about 0.5, than Ms; with an uncertainty of 0.7. Similarly, ML is larger than corresponding Mb by an amount of about 0.6 and the uncertainty is about 0.5. Likewise, ML is larger than Mw by about 1.0 and the corresponding uncertainty is 0.7.

Published: December 2021

Introduction: First Methadone Maintenance Programme (MMTP) in Nepal was started in the year 1994. This study was done to study and explore/compare findings of the present study with that of studies published in Nepal in the new millennium.
Material and Method: Study was conducted at the Mental Hospital, Lalitpur, Kathmandu, Nepal from 1994 to 2002. Data was collected for the initial 5 years from 1994 to 1998. These patients were followed up for the next five years till 2002. Data thus obtained are presented in a tabulated form, in terms of frequencies and percentages.
Results: A total of 204 patients were put on Methadone Maintenance Treatment Programme (MMTP) during the scheduled period. One-hundred-and-twenty-two (60%) of them were abusing buprenorphine. Severity of buprenorphine abuse was between 1-6 ampoules (2 ml per ampoule) per day. Approximately 40% (81) of them were sharing the injecting equipment. Seventy-seven (38%) of them had been in police custody in the past, for various reasons like theft, cheating, possessing, trafficking, violence and other antisocial behaviours. Forty-five percent (92) clients were retained at the end of 5 years. Sixty-nine family members (spouses, mothers, brothers) from these 92 regular methadone clients were interviewed. Eighty-six percent (79) of the interviewed family members reported significant improvement in clients’ health. Eighty-one percent (75) of the family members reported significant improvement among the methadone users’ family in financial responsibilities and interest in work. Overall, MMTP was found to have reduced the amount of illicit drug abuse significantly in these patients. These results are compared with the data of the subsequent published data on MMTP from Nepal in the new millennium.
Conclusion: Though the present study data may appear to be of historical value, we are presenting these data, in the light of the findings of the newer studies published of late from Nepal. Till date, our study remained the largest MMT Programme in Nepal, in terms of number of patients studied, number of years of study and number of years of follow up of these patients.
