Authors: Shaikh Zaffar Ahmed 
Published: May 2021

In the modern age, changes in climate, global warming, depletion of energy resources and other concerns related to the environment have prompted the development of green technologies. Scientists consider that the expansion in the echelons of the sustainable development will influence sustainable economics as well as societies. It will likewise have an extremely positive effect on supportability later on. Technical progressions in the cutting edge society symbolize human creativity and novelties. Conversely, that innovation has brought about the disturbance of ecology from a region to worldwide level. Green technologies have a positive prospect in addressing the necessities of monetary sustainability. But, factors concerning ecological and societal sustainability should be strengthened in a conjoint way. Environmental in addition to economic influence and effectiveness of an innovation ought to be broken down before the use of technologies. It ought to be a win-win circumstance while financial and economic and sustainable progressions are profoundly emphasized on. This review paper delivers a general idea of green technologies. The difficulties looked in progressing and executing green technologies and modern patterns that result in sustainability are moreover talked about. This review likewise portrays administrative strategies and fund associated issues.

A new method of cloud point extraction was determined for preconcentration and determination of different metal ions like copper(II), nickel(II) and cobalt(II) ions. The complexation has been done by bis(2-acetyl pyridine 4-phenyl 3-thiosemicarbazone) (APPT) using sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) as surfactant. Metal ions are extracted into the phase rich in SDS after centrifugation. Initially, micellar phase was dissolved in 10 mL of deionized water then acidified with 0.5 mol/L HNO3, enhanced the surfactant- rich phase and analyzed by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). The effects of pH, the concen- trations of metal ions and chelating agent (APPT), volume of surfactant (SDS), equilibration temperature and time were studied on CPE. The preconcentration factor obtained was 25 and the limits of detection(DL) obtained for cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) were 1.5, 1.7 and 2.4 ng/mL, respectively. This method of preconcentration was effectively useful for the determination of cobalt(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) in water samples.

Purpose Endometriosis is a benign gynecological disease affecting women in their Reproductive age and characterized by chronic pelvic pain and infertility. Previous studies have demonstrated the role of neurotrophins (in particular brain-derived neurotrophic factor) in the pain pathway and in inflammation processes, which both characterize endometriosis. Our previous study revealed higher brain-derived neurotrophic factor levels in patients suffering from endometriosis than in healthy women during the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle, thus suggesting a neuroprotective role of this particular neurotrophin in response to a neuro-inflammatory reaction. The aim of this study is to assess whether the diurnal variation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor and the circadian rhythm of cortisol are preserved in this kind of patient. Methods We enrolled 11 healthy women (age range 20 to 30, BMI range 20.6 to 29.3), and 11 women suffering from endometriosis (age range 25 to 35, BMI range 20.5 to 27.2). Blood samples were withdrawn from each subject in the follicular phase at 8:00, 12:00, 16:00, 20:00, 24:00, and at 8:00 the following day, in order to assess BDNF and cortisol plasma levels during the day. Results We found a preserved cortisol circadian rhythm in patients with endometriosis, while the BDNF daily variation is blunted if compared to healthy women in follicular phase. Conclusions In endometriosis the biological rhythm is preserved, which is demonstrated by the cortisol's rhythm, and the lack of BDNF variation is probably only blunted by the increase in its peripheral production, because of the physiopathologic mechanisms of this disease.

Aim of study: Evaluating the variability of physical and chemical soil properties under different soil uses in an experimental farmland of the southwestern Colombian Andes.Area of study: This research was conducted at the Botana Experimental Farm in the mountainous area of Nariño, at the south-western Colombia.Material and methods: nine soil variables were measured under six soil uses which included traditional agriculture, agroforestry systems, and a 67-year-old secondary forest that was used as a reference for comparisons with other soil uses. Data was analyzed through Principal Component Analysis and Duncan’s tests.Main results: organic carbon, cation exchange capacity, clay contents and base saturation were the variables with higher variability among soil uses. The secondary forest and an agroforestry system with alley-cropped wax laurel showed the best soil conditions, whilst pastures and monoculture potato crop plots showed the least desirable conditions for all variables.Research highlights: We found that soils under alley-crop with wax laurel presented the characteristics most similar to the secondary forest. Conversely, soils under alley-crop with alder resembled the soils under intensive management (pasture and potato monocrop); which is related to the inadequate management of this agroforestry systems, provoking that the woody component does not accomplish its goal when implemented.Keywords: soil; agroforestry systems; Andes; forest.Abbreviations used: ACAL, Alley cropping of Alder Trees, ACWL; Alley cropping of Wax Laurel; AFS, agroforestry systems; AWC, available water capacity; BD, Bulk Density; BS, Base saturation; CEC, Cation Exchange Capacity; CLA, Clay; CI, Confidence Intervals, INF, Infiltration; ANOVA, Analysis of Variance; OC, Soil Organic Carbon; PAST, Pasture; PCA, Principal Component Analysis; PC, Principal Component; POCR, Potato Crop; POR, Soil Porosity; SCAL, Scattered Alder Trees; SEFO, Secondary Forest; SU, soil uses; AU, Animal unit.
Rebellerende zorgprofessionals

Rebellious healthcare professionals: juggling with rules, passion and accountability
Bureaucracy and ‘red tape’ are seen as a main annoyance in healthcare practice. ‘Rules’ like guidelines and performance indicators would withdraw professionals from their real work, that is, helping patients. However, rules may also improve quality of care if they foster high quality practices. In this research, we explore how healthcare rebels deal with rules in their everyday work: how rebels ignore, engender and bend rules to build new environments for doing good care. Drawing on ethnographic research in three hospitals in the Netherlands (2017-2018), we reveal how rebels build and care for clinical microsystems containing their own clinical unit and related contexts (e.g. pharmaceutical suppliers, ICT companies, primary care) to evoke alternative and situated practices of good care delivery – i.e. focusing on quality of life and person-centred care. Rebels enact mechanisms of decoupling and recoupling to disconnect rules that embark on good care in specific patient situations, and build new routines that foster good care. However, such caring practices are hard to generalize as they often occur ‘under the radar’ and hence remain hardly noticed to the outside world. We argue that through revising accounting processes, and paying more attention to narratives of good care, more convenient quality systems could be found.

To determine the effectiveness and satisfaction with orthopodologic treatments in users of the University Clinic of podiatry at the University of A Coruña, according to various parameters. After approval from the ethics committee of the University of A Coruña, an observational retrospective study (n = 125). We analyzed the effectiveness and satisfaction with the orthopodologic treatments depending on the reason for consultation, diagnosis, treatment and goals of treatment. We performed a descriptive analysis of all variables collected. The most frequent reason for consultation was for pain of the hindfoot (58.2%).The most frequent diagnosis was plantar fasciitis, followed by metatarsalgia (29.7% vs. 18.6%). The orthotic treatment corrective was the most used (68.5%) with pronation control (52.3%). The majority of patients reported improvement in pain, and a high degree of satisfaction with the treatment used. The profile of the patient who consults the Podiatry clinic for a orthopodologic treatment is that of a man over the age of 50, who consulted for pain of the hindfoot. The most frequent diagnosis is plantar fasciitis and the treatment carried out the corrective for pronation control. The majority of patients used the brace between 4 and 8 hours a day, with a high satisfaction with the treatment and improvement in the evolution of the pain. The degree of satisfaction was significantly associated with age, younger patients more satisfied. The improvement of pain was significantly associated with age, younger patients who show improvement.
The Age-Sex Structure of Religion as a Determinant of the Social Inclusion of Internal Migrants in Maroua
Authors: Billa Robert Nanche 
Published: May 2021

We set out to find out how the sex-age structure of religion of internal migrants influences their integration in the socio-economic activities of Maroua. We used the exponential non-discriminative snowball sampling method to collect data in which each new referral provided us with more data for referral until we got enough number of subjects for the sample. We concluded that: if one is a Muslim, one will have a stable and progressing business because Muslims maintain a good relationship with their neighbors and they also practice a relationship of solidarity. However, the socio-economic activities of Catholics, Pentecostals and Protestants suffer because they lack the cultural capital that Muslims enjoy. However, age plays a major role: when they are 45–54 years old, the income of the internally migrated Muslims and Catholics drastically decline while that of Pentecostals and Protestants increases. Older Muslims and Catholics earn basically very low income unlike Protestants who earn very high salary. The income inequality among men is much higher than that among women. Generally, men have a more conflictual relationship with their neighbors than women and women diversify their relationship with the natives more than men.
Hepatit B’ye Bağlı Kronik Karaciğer Hastalığında Safra Kesesi Motilitesinin Değerlendirilmesi
Authors: TUNCEL Elif Tuğba 
Published: May 2021

Amaç: Çalışmamızda hepatit B’ye bağlı kronik karaciğer hastalarında portal hipertansiyonla ilişkili faktörlerin safra kesesi duvar kalınlığı ve motilitesi üzerindeki etkilerine bakıldı. Aynı zamanda antrum duvar kalınlığı ve mide motilitesi üzerindeki etkilerine bakılması amaçlandı.
Yöntemler: Çalışmaya portal hipertansiyon bulguları olmayan 10 hasta kontrol, portal hipertansiyon gelişmiş 20 hasta olgu grubu olarak alındı. Batın ultrasonografiyle açlık, test yemeği sonrası 15.dk, 30.dk, 60.dk, 90.dk, 120.dk safra kesesi ve antrum duvar kalınlığı, postprandiyal safra kesesi volümleri ve ejeksiyon fraksiyonları ölçüldü.
Bulgular: Hastaların 15’i Child Pugh A (%50), 10’u Child Pugh B (%35), 5’i Child Pugh C (%15) olarak sınıflandırıldı. Her iki grupta zamanla safra kesesi ejeksiyon fraksiyon oranlarının arttığı, safra kesesi volümlerin de azalma olduğu gösterildi. Sirozlu hastaların safra kesesi duvar kalınlık değişimi kontrol grubuna göre 30 ve 90. dk’ larda istatistiksel anlamlı ölçüde arttığı gösterildi. Sirozlu hastalarda antrum duvar kalınlığındaki değişim oranının 15, 30. ve 120. dakikalarda istatistiksel olarak anlamlı şekilde arttığı gösterildi.
Sonuç: Kronik karaciğer hastalığında safra kesesi duvar kalınlığında artma ve motilitesinde azalma olduğu saptandı. Bu sonuçlardan portal hipertansiyonun tek başına sorumlu olmadığı gösterildi. Portal hipertansiyon olan ve olmayan kronik karaciğer hastalarında safra kesesi hipomotilitesi yönünden bir fark olmadığı saptandı. Safra kesesi hipomotilitesi ve kese duvar kalınlaşmasında portal hipertansiyonla ilişkili karaciğer yetmezliğine bağlı rezervin azalması, hipoalbuminemi, safra stazı bilinen önemli nedenlerdir. Ancak portal hipertansiyon dışı nörohumoral faktörlerin de sorumlu olabileceğini düşündürdüğünden bununla ilgili ileri çalışmaların yapılması gerektiğini düşünmekteyiz.
Pleurotus Eryngii Ekstraktının Sprague-Dawley Sıçanlarında Adriamisin Kaynaklı Kardiyotoksisite Üzerindeki Etkilerinin İncelenmesi
Authors: ERDEM GÜZEL Elif 
Published: May 2021

Amaç: Adriamisin (ADR), kanser tedavilerinde kullanılan güçlü ve geniş spektrumlu bir antibiyotiktir. Fakat ADR’nin klinik etkinliği, doza bağlı kardiyotoksisitesi nedeniyle engellenmektedir. Bu nedenle çalışmada ADR uygulanan sıçanların kalp dokularında meydana gelen değişiklikler üzerine Pleurotus eryngii ekstraktının (PEE)’nin koruyucu etkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Yöntemler: Sprague-Dawley cinsi erkek sıçanlar 4 eşit gruba ayrıldı (n=6). Kontrol grubuna DMSO/etanol çözeltisi oral gavaj yolu ile gün aşırı verildi. ADR grubuna 10 mg/kg ADR intraperitoneal (i.p) olarak tek doz uygulandı. ADR+PEE grubuna 10 mg/kg i.p tek doz ADR verildikten sonra DMSO/etanol içinde çözdürülen 200 mg/kg PEE oral gavaj yoluyla gün aşırı verildi. PEE grubuna oral gavaj ile DMSO/etanolde çözdürülen 200 mg/kg PEE gün aşırı verildi. 21.günün sonunda sıçanlar dekapite edildi. Dekapitasyonun ardından kalp dokuları çıkarılarak histolojik ve kantitatif RT-PCR analizleri yapıldı.
Bulgular: ADR grubuna ait kalp dokularında inflamatuar hücre artışı, miyofibril kaybı, sitoplazmik vakuolizasyon ve vasküler konjesyon bulgularına rastlanıldı. PEE tedavisinin bu histopatolojik bulgularda iyileşmeye neden olduğu gözlendi. Ayrıca ADR grubunda kontrol grubuna kıyasla IL1-β immunoreaktivitesinde ve IL1-β, BAX, Kaspaz-3 mRNA seviyelerinde anlamlı bir artış olduğu izlendi. ADR+PEE grubunda ise ADR grubuna kıyasla IL-1β immunoreaktivitesinde ve IL1-β, BAX, Kaspaz-3 mRNA seviyelerinde anlamlı bir azalma olduğu belirlendi.
Sonuç: ADR’ye bağlı kardiyotoksisitede PEE tedavisinin anti-apoptotik ve anti-inflamatuar özellikleri ile kardiyoprotektif etki gösterdiği ortaya koyuldu.
