Effects of Exploitation Pressures and River Damming on the Population Structure of Elephant Snout Fish (Mormyrus Kannume) Forsskal 1775: A Case Study on the Upper Victoria Nile
Authors: Bassa Samuel 
Published: March 2021

The Elephant snout fish (Mormyrus kannume) Forsskal (1775) is one of the riverine fish species that was previously important for the River Nile riparian people as food and income. The fish is currently exploited mainly as bait for the Nile perch. This study was conducted from 2008 to 2016 and focused on catch rates, value, size structure, maturity status, and feeding habits of M. kannume. Annual catch estimates were made in order to evaluate the exploitation rate of the fish. Results revealed clear fluctuations in catches with a general increase in revenue from 1,200 (000) US$ to 8,600 (000) US$. With comparison to available literature, the fish exhibited a smaller size at maturity and smaller mean focal length (L50 for males and females were 25.2 and 28.2 cm; mean fork length of (25.9±0.32 cm). The observed changes could be due to increased fishing effort along with gear changes from gillnets to basket traps. Therefore the exploitation rate of the Elephant snout fish in the upper Victoria Nile may be unsustainable. Keywords: Bait; exploitation; Nile perch
Heavy Metals in Heterobranchus Longifilis (Cuvier And Valenciennes, 1840) Cultured in Earthen Ponds in Selected Communities in Warri Metropolis, Nigeria

Published: March 2021

The concentrations of Cadmium (Cd), Copper (Cu), Lead (Pb) and Zinc (Zn) in Heterobranchus longifilis (Mean total length= 40.52 cm; mean weight=563.25 g) cultured in earthen ponds in Warri, Nigeria, were determined by Atomic Absorption Spectrometric technique in order to provide baseline data and to ascertain the suitability of such fish for consumption. The mean concentrations of metals in H. longifilis, ranged from 0.13 mg/kg for Cd in January to 72.51 mg/kg for Cu in June with significant differences (p<0.05) observed in the mean concentrations of Cu, Pb and Zn in fish between months. The mean concentrations of metals in H.longifilis, ranged from 0.12 mg/kg for Cd at Jeddo to 69.27 mg/kg for Cu at Ubeji with significant differences (p<0.05) observed in the mean concentration of Zn in fish between stations. The bioaccumulation quotient (BQ) values ranged from 0.50 for Cd at Jeddo to 37.24 for Cu at Oboroke while the hazard quotient (HQ) ranged from 0.39 for Zn to 3.43 for Pb. The maximum acceptable risk (MAR) values anged from 0.02 for Pb at Ekpan to 6.29 for Zn at Ubeji while the estimated average daily intake (EADI) of heavy metals ranged from 0.09 mg/person/day for Cd to 36.13 mg/person/day for Cu. It was concluded that Cd, Cu and Pb were the metals that presented a potential risk to the consuming public and that the heavy metal content in earthen ponds should be routinely monitored in order to keep metal levels within safe limits.Keywords: Heavy metals, Hazard quotient, Heterobranchus longifilis

Published: March 2021

Seed germination and seedling growth performance of Maesopsis eminii and Terminalia catappa under different water soaking treatments were evaluated for 120 days under nursery conditions. A total of 1400 seeds were pre-treated with hot (95oC) and cold water (ambient temperature) by soaking for 12, 24 and 48 hours with a control of no soaking. The seeds were sown directly into polythene pots filled with uniform growth medium (top forest soil, sand and clay soilmixed in a ratio of 5:3:2) to avoid disturbance of the root system after germination. The seeds were sown in a randomized block design with seven treatments and three replicates. Data were analysed using ANOVA in GenStat v18. Results indicated that soaking enhanced seed germination. Soaking of seeds in cold water for 12 hours resulted into higher germination (90% for Terminalia catappa and 85% for Maesopsis eminii) than the control (48%). Soaking period and water temperature significantly influenced seedling vigour (F value = 0.962; p = 0.038). Soaking seeds in cold water for 24 hours enhanced Maesopsis eminii seedling growth by 8.0 cm Terminalia catappa seedlings by 7.4 cm. Seed dormancy, germination percentage and growth performance in hard coated seeds such as Maesopsis eminii and Terminalia catappa can be broken by soaking in cold water for 12-24 hours. Pre-germination treatments significantly influences the germination and seedling growth.

BILINGUALISM AND ITS TYPOLOGY IN KABARDIAN POETRY
Authors: БОРОВА А.Р. , ГЯЗОВ И.В. 
Published: March 2021

В статье рассматривается актуальная проблема билингвизма, обосновываются и выявляются причины обращения национальных писателей к творчеству на русском языке. В результате исследования было выделено два генетически разнородных вида поэтического билингвизма. Один из них в работе рассматривается как естественное продолжение традиций русскоязычной литературы, заложенных еще в XIX в. целым рядом адыгских просветителей. Делается акцент на том, что данный тип русскоязычной кабардинской поэзии можно отнести к эволюционному движению национального эстетического сознания интегративного характера. Направлен он на расширение зоны фронтирных культурных представлений, на создание медиаторного выразительного инструментария и реализуется индивидуальными усилиями художников, полноценно освоивших русские поэтические практики, но также полно идентифицирующих собственную этничность. Во втором типе русскоязычного творчества адыгов авторы исследования усматривают компенсаторные тенденции, возникшие как ответ на недостаточность некоторых форм поэтического отражения, особенно четко проявившуюся в период резкого изменения информационной среды всего пространства Советского Союза во второй половине 80-х гг. прошлого века.
The article considers the actual problem of bilingualism, justifies and identifies the reasons for the appeal of national writers to creativity in russian. The study identified two genetically diverse types of poetic bilingualism. The author considers one of them to be a natural continuation of the traditions of russian-language literature, laid down in the 19th century by a number of adyghe educators. The emphasis is placed on the fact that this type of russian-language kabardian poetry can be attributed to the evolutionary movement of the national aesthetic consciousness of an integrative nature. It is aimed at expanding the zone of frontier cultural representations, at creating mediator expressive tools, and is implemented by the individual efforts of artists who have fully mastered Russian poetry practices, but also fully identifying their own ethnicity. In the second type of russian-language creativity of the circassians, the authors of the study sees compensatory tendencies that arose as a response to the insufficiency of some forms of poetic reflection, which was especially clearly manifested during a sharp change in the information environment of the entire space of the Soviet Union in the second half of the 80-s of the last century.
VSEVOLOD MILLER AS A RESEARCHER AND INTERPRETER
Authors: ЧИБИРОВ Л.А. 
Published: March 2021

Научное наследие В.Ф. Миллера отмечено выдающимися достижениями в области лингвистики, истории, этнографии и археологии. Его глубокие познания в сфере этнических культур народов Северного Кавказа и прежде всего осетин позволили ему стать основоположником нового научного направления – нартологии. Им были сделаны первые попытки научного осмысления исторической основы существования эпических сказаний о нартах. Заслуги ученого в деле собирания, публикации и популяризации осетинских сказаний велики. Миллер первым высказал об интернациональном характере сказаний. Он же впервые провел яркие параллели между нартовскими сказаниями осетин и скифо-аланским бытом, послужившие весомым аргументом в обосновании этногенетического вывода о скифо-алано-осетинском единстве. Работы ученого заложили основы сравнительно-исторического исследования эпоса, успешно продолженного его последователями (В. Абаев, Ж. Дюмезиль). Труды Миллера, по определению Ж. Дюмезиля – «русского ученого высшего класса», не потеряли своей значимости до наших дней.
V.F. Miller’s scientific heritage is noted for outstanding achievements in the field of linguistics, history, ethnography and archaeology. His deep knowledge of ethnic cultures of the peoples of the North Caucasus, and above all the Ossetians, allowed him to become the founder of a new scientific direction – Nartology. He made the first attempts to scientifically comprehend the historical basis of the existence of epic legends about the Narts. The scientist’s merits in the collection, publication and popularization of Ossetian legends are great. Miller was the first who expressed the international character of legends. For the first time he drew vivid parallels between the Nart legends of the Ossetians and the Scythian-Alanian way of life, which served as a weighty argument in substantiating the ethnogenetic conclusion about the Scythian-Alano-Ossetian unity. The scientist’’s works laid the foundations for a comparative historical study of the epic, which was successfully continued by his followers (V. Abaev, G. Dumézil). Miller’s works, by the definition of G. Dumézil, “a Russian scientist of the highest class,” have not lost their significance to this day.

The Mediating Role of Social Phobia Between Perfectionism and Low Life Satisfaction Among Young Women
Authors: Dobos Bianca , Urban Robert , Kenny Dianna , Piko Bettina F 
Published: March 2021

Individuals with social phobia report lower quality of life, poorer social functioning and lower achievement. Young women are more likely to experience anxiety than other demographic groups. Using bidirectional associations and a path model, this study examined the interrelationship between social phobia and trait anxiety, perfectionism and self-efficacy, and the role these variables play in the life satisfaction of 394 females aged between 18 and 35. Correlational analysis revealed that women with higher levels of trait anxiety, social phobia and perfectionism and lower levels of perceived self-efficacy were less satisfied with their life. Greater satisfaction with life was achieved by those who had higher self-efficacy, lower trait anxiety, less perfectionism and fewer social fears. In the final path model, the mediated effect of perfectionism, social phobia and satisfaction with life was significant. Social phobia fully mediated the link between perfectionism and low life satisfaction. These results suggest that perfectionism indirectly affects satisfaction with life through its contribution to the experience of social phobia. Overall, these results support the role of social phobia in young women’s lower satisfaction with life. In addition, perfectionism – indirectly, through developing social phobia – may also contribute to lower levels of life satisfaction, while self-efficacy does not mediate these interrelationships.
The Dynamics of Subjective Well-Being Among Recurrent Flood Victims: Development and Testing of an Integrated Model
Authors: Baruah Chandita , Hussain Dilwar 
Published: March 2021

The Indian subcontinent is vulnerable to natural disasters, predominantly devastating floods. The north-eastern region of India, especially the state of Assam, is endowed with many natural water resources, making the area highly flood-prone. However, very few studies have investigated the population’s subjective well-being (SWB) in these areas despite such recurrent adversity. An integrated model of SWB is proposed and tested by combining the SWB homeostasis theory and the theory of conservation of resources. The integrated model indicated both subjective as well as objective variables as significant predictors of the SWB. A sample of 306 participants was randomly selected from two severely flood-affected areas in the state of Assam in India using a cross-sectional survey study design. Structural equation modeling was used to test two hypothesized integrated models (a direct and mediational path model). The results indicated that SWB homeostasis is maintained within the normative range of 60-65 points when measured on a 100-point continuum. Analysis of the direct path model showed that education, safe shelter, personality traits (extraversion, neuroticism, agreeableness, and openness), object and condition resources, psychological buffers (optimism and perceived control), and negative affect significantly predicted SWB. The mediational path model indicated that optimism is a significant mediator between personality traits (agreeableness, conscientiousness, and neuroticism), positive affect, resources (object resources and condition resources), and SWB. The study findings may have implications for counselling in addressing internal psychological buffers such as optimism and perceived control for maintaining the SWB of the disaster victims.

Eklampsia dengan asma merupakan kondisi medis yang paling sering terjadi dalam kehamilan. Eklampsia dengan asma akut berat dalam kehamilan merupakan problem yang sulit. Kejadian eklampsia sekitar 2–8% diseluruh dunia dan merupakan penyebab kematian tertinggi kedua setelah perdarahan. Prevalensi terjadinya 0,3%–0,7% pada negara berkembang. Asma merupakan penyakit inflamasi kronis saluran nafas yang melibatkan banyak sel dan elemen seluler yang mengakibatkan terjadinya hiperresponsif jalan nafas yang dapat menimbulkan gejala episodik berulang berupa wheezing, sesak nafas, dada berat dan batuk. Di Indonesia prevalensi berkisar 5-6% dari populasi penduduk, dimana serangan asma biasanya timbul pada usia kehamilan 24–36 minggu. Seorang wanita 28 tahun G1P0A0 datang hamil 35 minggu dengan keluhan sesak, nyeri kepala, kejang tiga kali, kaki bengkak. Dilakukan seksio sesarea dengan anestesi umum. Ventilator mekanik selama seksio sesarea harus disesuaikan untuk menjaga PCO2 30–32 mmHg. Intubasi dilakukan dengan rapid sequence induction dan setelah pipa endotrakheal masuk dijaga tekanan darah supaya tidak meningkat. Setelah operasi selesai dilakukan ekstubasi dalam untuk mencegah gejolak hemodinamik dan mengurangi iritasi saluran nafas. Pasca operasi pasien masuk intensive care unit untuk pemantauan lebih lanjut. Penanganan anestesi yang efektif pada pasien ini akan meningkatkan survival serta memberikan prognosis yang lebih baik
Management of Anesthesia in Caesarean Section for Patient with Eclampsia and SevereAcute Asthma
Abstract
Eclampsia with asthma is the most common medical condition in pregnancy. Eclampsia with severe acute asthma in pregnancy is a difficult problem. The incidence of eckampsia is around 2–8% worldwide and is the second highest cause of death after bleeding. The prevalence of occurrence is 0.3% –0.7% in developing countries. Asthma is a chronic inflammatory airway disease that involves many cells and cellular elements that cause airway hyperresponsiveness which can cause recurrent episodic symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, heavy chest and coughing. In Indonesia the prevalence ranges from 5–6% of the population, where asthma attacks usually occur at 24–36 weeks' gestation. A 28-year-old woman G1P0A0 comes 35 weeks pregnant with complaints of tightness, headache, seizures three times, swollen feet. Caesarean section was performed under general anesthesia. Mechanical ventilator during cesarean section must be adjusted to maintain PCO2 30–32 mmHg. Intubation was done by rapid sequence induction and after the endotracheal tube has been entered, the intracranial pressure is maintained so it did not increase. After the operation was complete, extubation was done to prevent hemodynamic fluctuations and reduce airway irritation. Postoperatively the patient was admitted to the intensive care unit for further monitoring. Effective anesthetic treatment in these patients will increase survival and provide a better prognosis
