Authors: Gurmessa Kassahun , Garuma Zelalem 
Published: March 2021

The hydroponic fodder yield performance evaluation of different varities of sorghum was conducted in green house of Wollega University.. Three experiments were conducted. The first was to observe effects of irrigation frequency. The second one was undertaken to evaluate four sorghum varieties (Lalo, Chemeda, Gamadi and Dano) on fodder yield, yield related components and nutritive values. The third experiment was done to determine the appropriate date of harvest for biomass yield and agronomic traits. Complete randomized design (CRD) was employed to conduct the experiment with three replications. The results showed that there was no significant difference (p>0.05) between treatments on Dry matter yield (t/ha), Leaf Weight (t/ha), Root weight (t/ha) and Plant height (cm) as effect of frequency of watering at 2hr, 3hr and 4hr interval but, significant difference (p<0.05) among varieties of sorghums as an effect of frequency of irrigation on Fresh yield(t/ha), Plant height (cm) and leaf to root ratio (LRR%).The lowest average fresh yields were harvested at 7th days after planting and consistently increased until 17th days of planting. The highest plant heights were observed at 17 days while the lowest was observed at 7th days of harvesting. Except for dry matter (DM), Ash and crude protein (CP), there were significant differences (P<0.05) in neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF), acid detergent lignin (ADL) and in vitro dry matter digestibility contents of the sorghum varieties. The Sorghum variety, Gamadi contained the highest CP (13.29%) and lowest Acid detergent lignin contents. The Sorghum variety, Chemeda showed best in vitro DM digestibility (73.24%). Harvesting hydroponic sorghum at 17 days after planting gave the best biomass yield (t/ha), LRR and Plant height (cm); showing the increase in biomass as time of harvesting increases. Among the tested varieties of sorghum a variety, Dano best for biomass yield among the others.

Objective: This study was designed to evaluate the prevalence of depression in females with primary infertility at a tertiary care hospital in Rawalpindi and identify the factors associated with the condition. Study Design: Descriptive Cross-sectional study. Setting: Infertility Clinic of the Department of Obstetrics and Gyanecology, Benazir Bhutto Hospital, Rawalpindi. Period: February to August 2016. Material & Methods: Females between the ages of 18 and 40 years with primary infertility were included in the study. The presence and severity of depressive symptoms were assessed using the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D). Socio-demographic details and clinical information was collected on a pre-designed proforma. Results: A total of 102 females were included in the study. The mean age of the patients was 31 years with a STD of ± 4.3 years. 78.4% (n=80) patients were suffering from depression on the basis of HAM-D scores. 18 (17.6%) had mild depression, 34 (33.3%) had moderate depression, 20 (19.6%) had severe depression and 8 (7.8%) patients had very severe depression. An analysis of the socio-demographic factors showed that a majority of the females were educated, housewives and living in extended families. The frequency of depression was significantly associated with a low monthly household income (p=0.046). Conclusion: A high proportion of females with primary infertility suffer from depression. Screening for psychiatric illnesses should be part of the standard evaluation of these patients. Early detection and timely psychological intervention can lead to a significant reduction in long-term morbidity.

Design and Simulation of a controller for Double Fed Induction Generator turbine Utilized Solar Up Draft Tower
Authors: Heelan Mayada Yousif , AL-Qrimili Fadhil Abbas 
Published: March 2021

This paper introduces a complete design and simulation of a controller for the double fed induction generator (DFIG) turbine. The work also included the solar updraft tower (SUT) design to supply Al-Mahmoudia hospital in Baghdad/Iraq. The design includes the daily average load estimation, annual solar irradiance and, temperature monitoring, and logging.
According to the data obtained from the Ministry of Science and Technology, Baghdad has low wind speed. Therefore, the (SUT) has been designed to generate electrical power depending on the difference between the external and internal air temperature. The temperature difference will generate a suitable airspeed to drive the wind turbine, connected to the proposed (DFIG) generators that generate the appropriate electrical power required. The proposed controller of the DFIG is based on (vector control) by using PI control to feed the power of the rotor circuit parts. The (DFIG) consists of two back-to-back PWM inverters connected between the stator and the rotor. This paper's main goal is to design and simulate a controller for two (DFIG's) under various operating conditions driven by a wind turbine, which is rotated by the warm wind effect inside the solar updraft tower. This is to generate maximum power with constant magnitude and frequency of the output voltage. The proposed controller's performance is verified by using a simulation model built using the MATLAB/Simulink software. The simulation results confirm that the proposed controller (Vector Control), using PI controller maintains both the magnitude and frequency of the output voltage stays constant at the nominal values and stabilization irrespective of the wind speed variations and extract maximum output power. In addition, the controller provides (MPPT) to the turbine to generate the maximum power according to the available wind speed. The torque will give the rotor quadrature current (Iqr), which causes speed change according to the working conditions. The results also showed the steady-state and discussed the two different methods (Vector Control, MPPT) of the control strategy (DFIG). MATLAB and Simulink software used for modeling one of DFIG's modules to supply the hospital load of 276 KW. Besides, simulation results show that the controller demonstrates significant improvements in terms of better stability and faster response.
РОЛЬ НАУКОВОЇ Й ЕКСПЕРИМЕНТАЛЬНО-ДОСЛІДНИЦЬКОЇ ДІЯЛЬНОСТІ М. О. ТЮЛЕНЄВА ДЛЯ УКРАЇНСЬКОГО СОЦІУМУ В 30-ті – 60-ті рр. ХХ ст.
Authors: Шульга Наталія 
Published: March 2021

У статті охарактеризовано діяльність вітчизняного агромеліоратора, член-кореспондента АН УРСР, професора Миколи Олександровича Тюленєва (1889-1969 рр.) в Українському науково-дослідному інституті гідротехніки і меліорації протягом 30-х – 60-х рр. ХХ ст., а також проаналізовано результати його експериментально-дослідницьких робіт у галузі теорії, методології та практики агромеліоративної дослідної справи.
Авторкою використовувалися історико-генетичний, історико-хронологічний, проблемний, історико-порівняльний, персонологічний та біографічний методи. Крім того, застосовано методи систематизації та джерелознавчої критики.
Встановлено, що протягом роботи в УНДІГіМ М. О. Тюленєв проводив дослідження щодо підготовки й обробітку ґрунту, удобрення болотних ґрунтів (кислих, нейтральних і лужних), ведення рільництва, вирощування просапних і технічних культур (у тому числі цукрового буряка), городніх та ягідних культур, сіяних луків і пасовищ, їх поверхневого покращення, боротьби з бур’янами та використання удобрення на мінеральних ґрунтах. Учений керував осушувальними меліораціями під методичним координуванням УНДІГіМ. Протягом 1944-1947 рр. М. О. Тюленєв очолював відділ осушення НДІ, активно долучившись до відновлення опорної мережі інституту після звільнення окупованих територій від німців. Вчений здійснював наукове керівництво двома науково-дослідними темами: Меліоративно-гідрологічна характеристика малих річок УРСР як основа розробки проблеми комплексного використання малих річок; Конструкція і розрахунки каналоочисників для мілкої осушувальної системи.
З’ясовано, що у 1950-х рр. М. О. Тюленєв працював над вивченням можливостей і перспектив раціонального використання осушених торфових ґрунтів, насамперед, під луки і пасовища для створення міцної кормової бази. Стосовно галузі механізації меліоративних робіт поряд із виконанням завдань з будівництва й очищення каналів, питань дощування у творчості М. О. Тюленєва вирішення знайшла і механізація кротодренажних робіт, яку він проводив разом з С. І. Рудич. Ученого по праву називають класиком агромеліоративної дослідної справи радянського періоду.
ФІЛОСОФСЬКІ ТА СУСПІЛЬНО-ПОЛІТИЧНІ ПОГЛЯДИ САЇДА НУРСІ
Authors: Яценко Богдан 
Published: March 2021

С. Нурсі – відомий філософ та релігійний діяч І пол. ХХ ст. Його філософські та суспільно-політичні ідей були сформовані під впливом стагнації, внутрішніх та зовнішніх проблем Османської імперії, що доживала свої останні десятиріччя. С. Нурсі діяв в часи, коли могутня в минулому Османська імперія преживала гостру суспільну кризу. Перша Світова війна відкрила очі всього мусульманського світу на реальну могутність Європейської індустріальної машини. Логічно, що це викликало хвилю обурення старими порядками, намагання відійти від своїх споконвічних традицій. Але зараз ми чудово знаємо, що дивіз: «Весь мир насилья мы разрушим. До основанья, а затем. Мы наш, мы новый мир построим» не працює так, як хотіли б того радикальні реформатори. Пік суспільно-політичної активності Саїда Нурсі прийшовся на першу чверть ХХ ст., часи тріумфу народних сподівань на рішучі зміни в країні, які так і не відбулися. Згідно із власною філософією, навіть у часи тотальної бюрократії та погіршення становища у Османській імперії, він добився дозволу та кошт на впровадження своїх освітянських ідей. Будучи дійсно мудрою людиною, Саїд Нурсі вважав, що від старих порядків не можна відходить, але треба змінювати їх відповідно до сучасних потреб суспільства.

OBJECTIVEAlthough the past decades have seen a steady increase of women in medicine in general, women continue to represent a minority of the physician-training staff and workforce in neurosurgery in Canada and worldwide. As such, the aim of this study was to analyze the experiences of women faculty practicing neurosurgery across Canada to better understand and address the factors contributing to this disparity.METHODSA historical, cross-sectional, and mixed-method analysis of survey responses was performed using survey results obtained from women attending neurosurgeons across Canada. A web-based survey platform was utilized to collect responses. Quantitative analyses were performed on the responses from the study questionnaire, including summary and comparative statistics. Qualitative analyses of free-text responses were performed using axial and open coding.RESULTSA total of 19 of 31 respondents (61.3%) completed the survey. Positive enabling factors for career success included supportive colleagues and work environment (52.6%); academic accomplishments, including publications and advanced degrees (36.8%); and advanced fellowship training (47.4%). Perceived barriers reported included inequalities with regard to career advancement opportunities (57.8%), conflicting professional and personal interests (57.8%), and lack of mentorship (36.8%). Quantitative analyses demonstrated emerging themes of an increased need for women mentors as well as support and recognition of the contributions to career advancement of personal and family-related factors.CONCLUSIONSThis study represents, to the authors’ knowledge, the first analysis of factors influencing career success and satisfaction in women neurosurgeons across Canada. This study highlights several key factors contributing to the low representation of women in neurosurgery and identifies specific actionable items that can be addressed by training programs and institutions. In particular, female mentorship, opportunities for career advancement, and increased recognition and integration of personal and professional roles were highlighted as areas for future intervention. These findings will provide a framework for addressing these factors and improving the recruitment and retention of females in this specialty.

BACKGROUNDLumbar spine osteomyelitis can be refractory to conventional techniques for identifying a causal organism. In cases in which a protracted antibiotic regimen is indicated, obtaining a conclusive yield on biopsy is particularly important. Although lateral transpsoas approaches and intraoperative computed tomography (CT) navigation are well documented as techniques used for spinal arthrodesis, their utility in vertebral biopsy has yet to be reported in any capacity.OBSERVATIONSIn a 44-year-old male patient with a history of Nocardia bacteremia, CT-guided biopsy failed to confirm the microbiology of an L4–5 discitis osteomyelitis. The patient underwent a minimally invasive open biopsy in which a lateral approach with intraoperative guidance was used to access the infected disc space retroperitoneally. A thin film was obtained and cultured Nocardia nova, and the patient was treated accordingly with a long course of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole.LESSONSThe combination of a lateral transpsoas approach with intraoperative navigation is a valuable technique for obtaining positive yield in cases of discitis osteomyelitis of the lumbar spine refractory to CT-guided biopsy.

С жизнью и творчеством крупнейшего русского богослова и духовного писателя второй половины XIX в. святителя Феофана Затворника читатель может теперь подробно познакомиться в первых двух томах Летописи его жизни и творчества. Среди отечественных богословов сегодня вряд ли можно назвать какое-нибудь другое имя, кому в последнее время было посвящено столько исследований. Ежегодные Феофановские чтения, конференции и семинары 1 свидетельствуют о всё возрастающем интересе к личности и творениям святителя. Как отметил в Предисловии к первому тому Святейший Патриарх Московский и всея Руси Кирилл, «духовное наследие святителя Феофана представляется и сегодня весьма актуальным для верующего человека. Принципы духовной жизни, сформулированные в трудах святителя “Путь ко спасению”, “Начертание христианского нравоучения”, “Письма о христианской жизни” служат руководством для тысяч и тысяч содевающих свое спасение.
The life and work of the greatest Russian theologian and spiritual writer of the second half of the nineteenth century, St Theophan the Recluse, is now available to the reader in the first two volumes of the Annals of his Life and Work. Among Russian theologians today one can hardly name any other name to whom so much research has been devoted lately. Theophanes' annual readings, conferences, and seminars 1 testify to a growing interest in the personality and writings of the saint. As His Holiness Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia noted in the Preface to the first volume, "The spiritual legacy of St Theophanes is still very relevant for the believer. The principles of spiritual life, formulated in his works The Way to Salvation, The Outline of Christian Morals, and Letters on the Christian Life, serve as a guide for thousands and thousands who seek salvation.

People suffered from sciatica, pain along the sciatic nerve, require therapy up to 4 months or longer to achieve controlled-pain. The main treatment for sciatica is physiotherapy; medication is only secondary therapy. This quasi-experimental study aimed to investigate the effects of counseling and drug information services (DIS) by pharmacist on medication adherence and duration of therapy. In the study conducted in March‒July 2018, 128 ambulatory sciatica patients newly diagnosed at Dr. Suyoto Hospital, Jakarta, were divided randomly into two groups, each of 64 patients. The intervention group was given counseling and DIS by clinical pharmacists (3 times with interval of 4 weeks) as well as brochures. Primary data on medication adherence were obtained prospectively through interviews using a validated questionnaire, before the intervention and 4 weeks after the last counseling and DIS by clinical pharmacists. Secondary data (up to 16 weeks), including pain scores, were obtained from medical records and the patient administrative data. The results showed that sociodemographic characteristics as well as distribution of initial adherence and initial pain levels of the two groups were not significantly different (Mann-Whitney test, p>0.05). After the last intervention, the proportion of patients with high-adherence in the intervention group (12.5%) was higher than in the control group (6.3%), as was the proportion of patient achieved controlled-pain (84.4% versus 76.6%). The results of survival analysis showed that the duration of treatment by which 50% of patients achieved controlled-pain (median survival) was significantly shorter in the intervention group (85 days) than in the control group (92 days), while the probability of achieving controlled-pain (hazard ratio) in the intervention group was 1.7 times of that in the control group. In conclusion, counseling and DIS by pharmacist can improve the effectiveness of sciatica treatment, although the main therapy for the nerve pain is not medication.
