Published: July 2021

Connection between direct kidney involvement and novel CoronaVirus Disease (COVID-19) has been less evident until now. In today’s critical scenario of COVID-19, as healthcare professionals, our prime responsibility is to create awareness in clinician and general public as to mysterious facts of kidney involvement in Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome CoronaVirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Further, we have shed light on the clinical management of patients with chronic kidney disorders, particularly those on dialysis and having kidney transplants who are critically ill with COVID-19. Based upon our comprehensive literature review, we concluded that kidney involvement is an independent risk factor for mortality in patients with COVID-19 infection. This paper will assuredly be helpful for the new generation nephrologists to deal with such a disastrous situation.

Authors: Griffin B. , Braman S.K. 
Published: July 2021

AbstractDuring 2017 and 2018, gardeners at 36 locations across 21 Georgia counties volunteered to be part of the Georgia Pollinator Census project. The goals of the project were to generate a snapshot of pollinator population data while educating gardeners about the importance of pollinators and other beneficial insects and assisting schools with science, technology, engineering, art, and math programming. Effective insect identification training and on-going support were crucial parts of this citizen science project. Insect counting was conducted in September and October on an aster species and another plant species chosen by the participants. Twenty-eight plant taxa were chosen by participants to be frequently visited by pollinators. Analysis of the data indicates a higher number of sightings of bumble bees, Bombus spp. Latrelle (Hymenoptera: Apidae); honey bees, Apis mellifera L. (Hymenoptera: Apidae), and wasps (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) in rural areas and a higher number of sightings of carpenter bees, Xylocopa spp. Latrelle (Hymenoptera: Apidae); flies (Diptera); and “other insects” (e.g., those that did not fall into any of the other seven categories) in urban areas. We also saw an increase in entomological interest among the participants as well as an increase in insect knowledge. This pilot project was used to refine criteria for a larger state-wide census.

Published: July 2021

Abstract
Bemisia tabaci Gennadius (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) has been phylogenetically divided into several putative species based on nucleotide sequence of mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase 1 (mtCOI). To confirm the putative species among B. tabaci populations in Iran, insects were collected from different regions and plant hosts in Khuzestan province of southwestern Iran, and their mtCOI sequences were determined. DNA polymorphism and phylogenetic analysis of the 10 mtCOI sequences obtained showed four haplotypes among the specimens from Khuzestan province that were identified as the putative species MEAM1-subcladeB. Moreover, specimens previously collected from Iran were found to be members of the MEAM1-subcladeB2. Twelve variable sites were detected throughout the Iran-originated mtCOI sequences contributing to their position on the phylogenetic tree. This is the first study reporting the putative species MEAM1-subcladeB from southwestern Iran.

Background: Small supernumerary marker chromosomes (sSMCs) are chromosomal fragments with abnormal structures found in patients with fertility problems and developmental delay. They may be detected in amniotic cell karyotypes. sSMCs are categorized as hereditary or de novo. Here, we describe a case of prenatal de novo 4q11q12 sSMC and its molecular cytogenetic features which had no apparent phenotypic abnormality.
Case: The fetus of a 36-yr-old pregnant woman was detected positive for Down’s syndrome (trisomy 21) at the 16th wk of gestation. Quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction technique was applied for the rapid detection of numerical aneuploidy of chromosomes X, Y, 13, 18, and 21 microsatellites. Array comparative genomic hybridization (array CGH) technique was also conducted following the karyotype analysis of amniotic cells. The karyotype analysis was also done for the parents. Quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction result revealed a male fetus with a normal chromosomal pattern, while the amniocentesis karyotype analysis identified a male fetus with a marker chromosome (47, XY, +mar), and the sSMC were existing in 100% of amniocyte metaphase spreads. The parents’ normal karyotypes indicated that the sSMC was de novo. Array CGH analysis revealed a 6.48-Mb duplication at 4q11q12. Eventually, the parents decided to terminate the pregnancy by legal abortion.
Conclusion: Our study highlights the importance of the application of array CGH in combination with karyotype analysis for rapid and precise prenatal diagnosis of partial aneuploidy region.

Published: July 2021

In view of the profound changes that have taken place in agriculture, rice has become a major consumer crop. Thus, in addition to its important role in food security, rice is increasingly being transformed into small-scale by-products that are still poorly understood and marketed. The objective of this research is to study the process of transformation and commercialization of rice products in the township of Natitingou.
The methodological approach adopted consists essentially of collecting data from 78 actors, mainly processors and traders of rice derivatives, processing the data and analyzing the results obtained using the SWOT model.
The analysis of the results revealed that the process of processing rice derivatives in Natitingou takes into account the parboiling of rice during its transformation, the transformation of parboiled rice into a derived food product, the hygiene rules observed in the processing room and the fermentation of rice flour for consumption. Nearly 80% of those surveyed said that rice derivatives are processed with archaic tools, and marketing is not very profitable. Despite this situation, rice processing has made it possible to obtain several by-products such as cookies, cakes, akpan, and even tchoucoutou or tchapkalo, etc. Finally, the marketing of these products is done through the marketing used by the groups, the strategies of sale and distribution price of the products derived from rice, the publicity and means of communication for the sale of these products.
The Process of Musical Interpretation and the Play-Element in Music
Authors: Kashyrtsev Ruslan 
Published: July 2021

The article is devoted to examination of such phenomenon as musical interpretation, which incorporates various aspects of composer’s and performer’s creativity, listener’s perception, different styles of musical art, creative communication in music. The attempt to find the traits of the play-element in the process of musical interpretation may help to define the mechanisms, through which “play” activity in music in general is realized. Systematic approaches of scholars of the play-element and theorists of artistic interpretation present great possibilities to conduct such a research.
Examination of theoretical points of view on beforementioned problems allowed to reach a conclusion that the play-element is inherent to the music and is expressed in the process of interpretation. This happens in the framework of the system “composer – performer – sound director – listener”, in which artistic interpretation plays a significant role.

Background: Based on the duration and intensity of the exercise, sports can b classified into two types: endurance and non endurance (strength and power). Endurance sports is a high risk sport with low diet quality, nutritional status (body mass index (BMI) and body fat percentage), and haemoglobin level. Objectives: The aimed of this study is to analyze the differences of diet quality, nutritionl status, and haemoglobin level of female adolescent athletes in endurance and non endurance sports. Methods: An observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted on 23 endurance athletes and 21 non endurance athletes in BBLOP Central Java, UNNES swimming and athletic sports club, and Salatiga atlhetic sports club. Subjects were selected by purposive sampling. BMI and body was measured by Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (Tanita DC-360). Haemoglobin level was assessed by cyanmethemoglobin method. Diet quality was measured by semi quantitative food frequency questionnaire (SQ-FFQ) and diet quality index-international (DQI-I) form. Data was analyzed by independent t-test and Mann-Whitney. Results: The majority of nutritional status based on BMI and perventage body fat in endurance and non endurance athlete were normal. About 9,5% of non endurance athlete had anemia. There were significant difference in diet quality (p=0,029) and variety of protein source, iron, vitamin C, and empty calorie foods intake (p<0,001; p=0,028; p=0,045; p<0,001) of endurance and non endurance athletes, but no significant difference in body fat percentage (p=0,573) and haemoglobin level (p=0,714). Conclusion: There were significant difference on diet quality, variety of protein source, iron, vitamin C, and empty calorie foods intake between endurance and non endurance athletes.
ANALYSIS OF ELECTRICAL LOAD SCHEDULES OF 10/0.4 KV TRANSFORMER SUBSTATIONS OF RESIDENTIAL AREAS FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF STATIONARITY PLOTS
Authors: Shcherbak Iryna , Kovalova Yuliia , Korobka Volodymyr 
Published: July 2021

It is proposed on the electrical load graphs of transformer substations 10/0.4 kV in residential areas to allocate the stationarity areas for further modelling of load schedules and the implementation of controlling influences on the modes of consumers-regulators in order to align the overall graph of the electrical load. The relevance and complexity of the problem under consideration is caused by the fact that the load variation of transformer substations 10/0.4 kV in residential areas occurs randomly. This is due to the significant number, nomenclature and diversity of types of connected consumers, as well as the lack of deterministic connections between consumers of electricity, in addition, the random load function in the daily interval is non-stationary. In this regard, there was a need to develop the stages of selecting the areas of stationarity on the electrical load graphs of transformer substations 10/0.4 kV of residential areas. A measurement of the load graphs of 10/0,4 kV transformer substations is carried out, according to the results of which the distribution law of active and reactive power measurements is investigated. After confirming the hypothesis of normal distribution law, parametric tests are performed. Fisher's F-criterion is used to confirm the hypothesis of a constant variance, and Student's t-criterion is used to confirm the hypothesis of a constant mathematical expectation. The next stage, based on constancy of the variance and mathematical expectation, is the determination of autocorrelation coefficients of the studied random function and plotting of the autocorrelation function. To approximate the function the autocorrelation coefficients are determined by the least squares method and the autocorrelation function attenuation analysis is performed. The implementation of the defined stages allows to identify the areas of stationarity on the load graphs of transformer substations 10/0.4 kV. For a reliable description of the process of changing the load of transformer substations 10/0.4 kV the use of probabilistic-statistical method of modelling is justified that takes into account the stochastic nature of the load changes on the selected areas of stationarity.

Formal differentiated approach to managing women with stress urinary incontinence
Authors: Fedorova Daria 
Published: July 2021

ABSTRACT
The object of research: treatment of women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI).
Investigated problem: substantiation of the choice of treatment methods in the management of women of different ages with SUI depending on the urogynecological status, age, financial capabilities, risk of complications and speed of achieving the desired result.
The main scientific results: An approach has been developed to substantiate the most rational method of treatment of women of different ages with SUI, taking into account the provision of an adequate standard of living. It is based on the use of hierarchy analysis, which allows to determine the priorities between competing treatments - mid-urethral sling (MUS), pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) and containment (absorbent pads). The expediency of applying a formal differentiated approach is confirmed by the results of questionnaires of representative groups of women on the technology of UDI-6 and IIQ-7 questionnaires before and after treatment. It is recommended to choose a rational method of treatment or a set of treatment methods personally depending on the urogynecological status, age, financial capabilities, risk of complications and speed of achieving the desired result. MUS has gained the highest number of points due to the short time of treatment and rehabilitation, long-term postoperative effect, accessibility, low level of complications and significant improvement of life quality in young and elderly women. The most rational method of treatment of middle-aged patients with SUI is the method of PFMT as one that has a positive impact on the life quality of women and does not require financial costs.
The area of practical use of the research results: medical institutions providing urogynecological care to women.
Innovative technological product: development of a formal differentiated approach to the management of women with SUI, which allows to choose the most rational method of treatment taking into account the life quality.
Scope of the innovative technological product: clinical practice of treatment of women with SUI.

Published: July 2021

Abstract
The boron active belite cement is a cement type different from the Portland Cement due to the presence of B2O3 at 3–4%. The prominent properties are low hydration temperature, low early strength, and high final strength for the boron active belite cement concrete. The aim of this study is to observe self-compacting concrete properties, which includes boron active belite cement and silica fume, at the high temperatures. Withal, the cement types were decided as CEM I, CEM II, and boron active belite cement. Some mechanical and durability properties of manufactured samples were also investigated, experimentally. The samples were designed for 0.35 water/binder ratio and 2% hyper plasticizer, while the silica fume is replaced 7.5% for cement. Some rheological properties of self-compacting concrete, such as the experiments of flow diameter, flow time (t50), V-flow time, L-box and J-ring were observed at fresh stage. As high temperature related parameters, the samples were planned to be tested for 100, 200, 300, 400, 600 and 750°C, to acquire the compressive strength, tensile splitting strength, ultrasonic pulse velocity, and the unit weight. All the samples met the mentioned relevant criteria of self-compacting concrete. Withal, the presence of the boron active belite cement was enhanced by the flowability of the fresh concrete. The long time resulting compressive and splitting tensile strengths of the samples, which were produced with boron active belite cement implied greater values, then the CEM I and CEM II ones. The increasing high-temperature, decreased the strengths for all samples, and weight loss for the boron active belite cement used samples.
Modelling the Migration of Anthropogenic Pollution from Active Municipal Landfill in Groundwaters
Authors: CIUŁA Józef 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
Landfill requires a systematic monitoring of its impact on groundwater and surface waters. The paper presents the modeling of pollution migration for cases when leachate penetrates the aquifer layer. For this purpose, a conceptual hydrodynamic model of the aquifer was developed in the program Visual ModFlow Pro, which is a spatial two-layer model. Chloride ion was used as an indicator defining the rate of pollution migration. The results of calculations and modeling of pollution migration in soil-water conditions demonstrated that it is practically impossible for pollutants to penetrate the aquifer, since a sufficient protection is provided by artificial insulation and a layer of sandy clays. A potential pollution migration to groundwater can only occur after a rupture – damage to the insulation layer. In such a case, vertical infiltration will be taking place in the 4aeration zone for a relatively long period, while the migration of pollutants already in the saturation zone (hydrated) will be taking place at a relatively high speed.
How Hercules cleans up the Augean stables: differentiated implementation of the EU Water Framework Directive

Published: July 2021

AbstractRealising the goals of the European Union (EU) Water Framework Directive is difficult. The differentiation of water policies according to local conditions enjoys increasing attention and may be necessary to achieve good ecological status in all European waters. This paper seeks to explore to what extent and how local water quality determines the degree of coercion, i.e. the extent to which differentiated policies are voluntary or rather imposed upon policy addressees, of spatially differentiated water policies. It does so on the basis of seven cases in five EU Member States. For highly polluted waters, spatially differentiated policies tend either to make the use of authoritative policy instruments, i.e. coercion by way of formal regulation, or to rely on the threat to introduce such regulation. For preventing the deterioration of relatively ‘clean’ waters, voluntary instruments based on information and persuasion dominate, often supported by subsidies and/or the direct input of public resources. In relation to the spatial differentiation of water policies, issues of data demand, equality and legitimacy have to be taken into account.

Published: July 2021

Abstract
The main purpose of this study was to analyze and predict scour depth and hydraulic performance of piers using soft computing methods and to estimate scour depths using artificial neural networks and ANFIS methods. In the present study, three situations were studied: a rectangular pier without a cable (type I), a rectangular pier with a cable that has a diameter equal to 10% of the pier diameter, and a cable twist angle of 15 degrees (type II), and a rectangular pier with a cable 15% of the pier diameter and an angle of twist of 12 degrees (type III). Tests were carried out with different flow-approach angles: zero, 5, 10, and 15 degrees. Dimensional analysis based on the π Buckingham method was performed. Then, the effect of different parameters, and their importance for estimating scour depth was investigated. Piers with an angle of 15 degrees with respect to the direction of flow had the greatest depth of scouring. Cables can reduce scour depths at this angle; for the second and third classes of piers, the scouring is 10 and 22% compared to the first pier classification. For the second type of pier, angles of 5, 10, and 15 degrees led to increases in scouring depths of 3, 21, and 37% compared to the zero-angle situation.
