Economic and Environmental Aspects of SustainableTourism Development-A Conceptual Study
Authors: Khuntia Nabanita , Mishra Jitendra Mohan 
Published: June 2018

The term sustainable development is a commonly and widely used term in our contemporary world. The concept has gained popularity because it satisfies the urge of both its environmentalists and the developers. Sustainable tourism is considered as the meeting point of the developers and environmentalists even as both of them are quite skeptic about each other and criticize each other. Tourism which is an economic sector can eradicate poverty to a great extent. But the overuse of the natural resources for the tourism activities always leads to the negative impact on the environment. So there is an urgent need to maintain the balance between development and environment; otherwise the ever grasping power of tourism and development will demolish the basic structure of the world. The aim of this paper is to study the dialogues of sustainable tourism with reference to environment and economy. The present article is a conceptual discussion of evolution and the issues of sustainable tourism under economy and the environmental heads and concludes that both environment and development have equal importance in the betterment and survival of the human society
Airlines Operation to Puducherry: Poor Patronage or Inefficiency of the Carrier?
Authors: Mishra Jitendra Mohan 
Published: June 2018

Puducherry is a known tourist destination and if merged with the neighboring Tamil Nadu becomes largest tourist receiving region in the country. An airlines carrier SpiceJet operated till recently in February last year, when it withdrew operations from Puducherry. Study revealed however that this flying sector has been making steady growth and making profits though not comparable with prime sectors of the airlines company. Despite the conducive environment, the airlines‟ choice of scrapping the route deserves research. The present study thus is a sincere attempt to study the viability of the Puducherry sector for airlines operation. For the purpose it examined the perception of travellers about the select quality aspects of air transportation prevailed in Puducherry viz. choice of air travel over other modes, time factor and cost or value for money. The study was conducted across occupational groups for future segmentation of the market. The data for the research was collected through primary survey at Bengaluru amongst passengers who travelled to Puducherry by air. Secondary data related to the study were collected from Puducherry airport and other internet sources. The findings of survey revealed as respondents expressed their satisfaction about timing aspects of air travel; however the time to reach the airports in both Bengaluru and Puducherry is a concern that needs to be looked into by the local governments of respective states.

Sun, Sand and Sea are the three ‘Mantras’ which make a destination explored from unexplored, and popular from unpopular. Seaside tourism and recreation have rapidly increased in recent decades, becoming a "big business" and a primary contributor to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of several countries.Coastal areas are thickly populated worldwide, putting the coastal environment in danger.
The Vanishing Sacred Groves ("Kavus") in the 'God's Own Country' and its Ecological Significance
Authors: U Umesh , S Sheena 
Published: June 2018

Kavu" or the holy Sarpa Kavu (meaning Sacred Grove of the Serpent) is a typically small traditional grove of trees seen in the Kerala state of South India. These pristine groves usually have representations of several Naga Devatas (serpent gods), which were worshipped by the joint families or big houses (taravads). This was part of Nagaradhana (snake worship) which was prevalent among Keralites during past centuries. The kayos' represent the locally deep-rooted tradition of worshipping plants, animals and local deities. They are mostly concentrated in Kerala's entire region especially in the North Malabar region. The kavus; however, are facing threats byway of changes in values as well as socio-economic pressures, despite the weight of
traditional beliefs and rituals associated with them. Large scale conversion of land, decline of traditional agrarian values, socio­economic factors, population pressure and shortage of land have already made a dent on the rich ecosystem of 'kavus'. A large number of 'sarpa kavus', that were protected and maintained by upper caste communities, disappeared, due to the disintegration of families that protected them. In some cases, this led to their renovation and conversion into temples. There are reports stating that the 'kavus' suffered large scale degradation in the state due to high percentage of settler migration. These rich ecological repositories that also function as traditional water-harvesting system are not being given due importance. Most of the 'kavus' are located near agricultural lands; this indicates their role in an agrarian society. Most of the 'kavus' have perennial water resources rich in organic matter that enhance fertility of agriculture lands. Community protection alone can save the ' kavus'. Only through solid initiatives, it's possible to create awareness about 'kavus' ecological value among the communities (stakeholders); traditionally protecting the 'kavus' and the public. Sanctity of the 'kavus' may have been sustained by beliefs. No less important is their protection by highlighting their ecological importance.

Published: June 2018

El propósito del estudio fue evaluar la suplementación de residuo seco de cervecería (orujo) y sales minerales (Fosvimin®) en la producción de leche de vacas cruzadas en la zona de Pucallpa, Perú. Se utilizaron tres grupos de seis vacas en diferente fase de lactación y de diverso grado de cruzamiento, pero con predominancia cebú. Los tratamientos fueron: T1 = pastura naturalizada (PN), T2 = PN + 5 kg de orujo seco de cervecería (Os) y T3 = PN + Os + 100 g/vaca de sal mineral. Los tres grupos de vacas fueron enfrentados a los tres tratamientos por periodos de 10 días, en un diseño de bloques completos al azar, donde la producción de leche fue medida entre los días 6 y 10 de cada periodo. Los suplementos de T2 y T3 fueron proporcionados durante el ordeño. El forraje disponible de la pastura naturalizada fue de 2207.6 kg/ha de materia seca. La producción de leche en T1, T2 y T3 fue de 4.5, 4.3 y 4.8 l/vaca/día, respectivamente, habiendo diferencia significativa entre T3 con T2 y T1 (p<0.05). Los resultados ostraron un efecto benéfico de la suplementación combinada de residuos de cervecería y sales minerales en la producción de leche de vacas al pastoreo.

Authors: Disher Timothy , Cameron Chris , Mitra Souvik , Cathcart Kelcey , Campbell-Yeo Marsha 
Published: June 2018

CONTEXT:
Retinopathy of prematurity eye examinations conducted in the neonatal intensive care.

OBJECTIVE:
To combine randomized trials of pain-relieving interventions for retinopathy of prematurity examinations using network meta-analysis.

DATA SOURCES:
Systematic review and network meta-analysis of Medline, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Web of Science, and the World Health Organization International Clinical Trials Registry Platform. All databases were searched from inception to February 2017.

STUDY SELECTION:
Abstract and title screen and full-text screening were conducted independently by 2 reviewers.

DATA EXTRACTION:
Data were extracted by 2 reviewers and pooled with random effect models if the number of trials within a comparison was sufficient. The primary outcome was pain during the examination period; secondary outcomes were pain after the examination, physiologic response, and adverse events.

RESULTS:
Twenty-nine studies (N = 1487) were included. Topical anesthetic (TA) combined with sweet taste and an adjunct intervention (eg, nonnutritive sucking) had the highest probability of being the optimal treatment (mean difference [95% credible interval] versus TA alone = −3.67 [−5.86 to −1.47]; surface under the cumulative ranking curve = 0.86). Secondary outcomes were sparsely reported (2–4 studies, N = 90–248) but supported sweet-tasting solutions with or without adjunct interventions as optimal.

LIMITATIONS:
Limitations included moderate heterogeneity in pain assessment reactivity phase and severe heterogeneity in the regulation phase.

CONCLUSIONS:
Multisensory interventions including sweet taste is likely the optimal treatment for reducing pain resulting from eye examinations in preterm infants. No interventions were effective in absolute terms.

Authors: Varyvoda Yu.Yu. , Tymoshyk A.M. , Tsizh B.R. 
Published: June 2018

Розглядається гідро-вітроенергетична установка, у якій залежно від добових потреб електроенергії та природніх коливань напору води і сили вітру оперативно здійснюється регулювання ефективності виробленої електроенергії за рахунок ситуативного використання енергії вітрогенератора. Встановлено, що стихійні зміни параметрів енергоносіїв негативно впливають на техніко-економічні показники енергообладнання. Внаслідок цього втрати і собівартість електроенергії суттєво зростають. Підтверджено, що залежність собівартості виробництва електроенергії від числа годин використання встановленої потужності енергоустановки оцінюється коефіцієнтом екстенсивного використання Кекс, коефіцієнтом інтенсивного використання Кінт та коефіцієнтом інтегрального використання Кін = Кекс × Кінт . Запропонована схема гідро-вітроенергетичної установки, в якій механічно об’єднані процеси виробництва електроенергії через використання сили вітру і напору води. Механічно об’єднуючи (для спільного регулювання) процеси виробництва електроенергії в одній гідро-вітроенергетичній установці, можна підвищити ступінь використання встановленої потужності міні-ГЕС за рахунок збільшення тривалості безперервної роботи з максимально високим ККД. Ступінь використання встановленої потужності міні-ГЕС зростає за рахунок збільшення тривалості безперервної роботи з максимально високим ККД. У нічний період гідрогенератор з турбіною може використовуватися як насос для накопичення води у водоймищі і її подальшого використання в денний максимум навантаження. Підвищення ефективності роботи таких установок буде відчутним, коли один з генераторів буде здатний підсилювати механічною або (і) електричною енергією потужність іншого, забезпечуючи більший ступінь їх використання. Розглянуто і проаналізовано різні варіанти механічного управління роботою гідро-вітроенергетичної установки при можливих змінах напору води чи (і) вітру. Подано висновки та перспективи подальших досліджень висвітленої проблеми.

Transdisciplinariedad investigativa: una apuesta en construcción para las Relaciones Internacionales e inteligencia/ Investigative transdisciplinarity: a bet in construction for International Relations and intelligence
Authors: Noboa González María Fernanda 
Published: June 2018

Apostar por una estrategia investigativa transdisciplinaria entre las Relaciones Internacionales (RI), en su sub-campo de seguridad y los Estudios de Inteligencia (EI), implica un triple compromiso: rigurosidad epistemológica, pertinencia teórico-metodológica y una clara responsabilidad político-ética, para desarrollar líneas analíticas adaptables –y con voz propia– a las necesidades investigativas locales. Este artículo constituye una reflexión crítica orientada a evaluar la pertinencia metodológica trandisciplinaria en construcción, para la generación de conocimiento nuevo; de esta manera, ampliar la comprensión de objetos de estudio del mundo internacional y de inteligencia de manera glocal. Los hallazgos muestran que gran parte de la literatura en RI y EI, especialmente en el ámbito de la seguridad, basan su producción en métodos ortodoxos, que marginalizan las potencialidades transdisciplinarias e instrumentan miradas pragmáticas con escasa reflexión epistemológica del método.
Abstract
Betting on a transdisciplinary research strategy between International Relations (RI) and Intelligence Studies (EI) implies a triple commitment: epistemological rigor, theoretical-methodological relevance and a clear political-ethical responsibility, to develop adaptive analytical lines with a voice of its own before the local investigative needs of both fields. Thus, this article constitutes a critical reflection aimed at evaluating the methodological relevance of transdisciplinarity in construction, towards the production of new knowledge that allows to expanding the understanding of the objects of study of the international world and of intelligence in a glocal way. The findings show that a large part of the literature in RI and EI bases its production on orthodox methods, marginalizing transdisciplinary potentialities and implementing pragmatic views with little epistemological reflection of the method.
Estudios estratégicos: entre la rigurosidad y la subjetividad/ Strategic studies: between rigour and subjectivity
Authors: Salgado Espinoza Raúl , Barreiro Martínez Daniela Alejandra 
Published: June 2018

El presente artículo propone que los reducidos diálogos y debates entre los grupos académicos provenientes de las diferentes regiones y perspectivas han contribuido a la expansión ilimitada de las temáticas abarcadas por los estudios estratégicos. Desde una perspectiva metodológica y para desarrollar este argumento, este artículo hace un análisis descriptivo-analítico de la literatura sobre los estudios estratégicos desde tres diferentes encuadres: mundial, regional y nacional. El texto se desarrolla con la premisa fundamental de que la “estrategia” como objeto de estudio ha perdido su cualidad de concepto analítico a causa de su ampliación más allá de lo militar.
Abstract
This paper proposes that the limited dialogue and debate amongst groups of academics from different regions and perspectives have contributed to the unlimited expansion of the strategic spectrum and the themes that cover strategic studies. From a methodological perspective and in order to develop this argument, this article provides a descriptive-analytical study of the literature of the field of strategic studies, from three different angles: worldwide, regional and national. The text develops with the fundamental premise that “strategy”, as object of study, has lost its original content as an analytical concept as a result of the broadening of its meaning.

Authors: Nachimuthu Dr.Kavitha , Awoke Kassa Mr.Wondim 
Published: June 2018

Quality education is the crucial for over development of the country. But there are different challenges for student to get quality education which led for poor academic performance. The study was conducted in the University of Gondar, Ethiopia to examine determinants of academic performance of the student. It was conducted at the second semester results of the final score in three courses for the academic year 2016/17 (Farming System Research and Innovation, Innovation System and Agricultural and Rural Extension). The courses were delivered for second year rural development and agricultural extension, adult education and community development 2nd year and animal production and extension 3rd year in the University of Gondar. Totally 118 students considered and stratified as male and female to compare and contrast the academic performance based on their attendance and total score. The multiple regressions was used to carried out to determine the impact of students’ attendance and gender (being male and female) at teaching and learning process in their final academic performance. The study reveals that female students attained more than male student but on average they perform less than male students. Both gender and attendance have significant effect on academic performance of the student. Gender was significant at 1% probability and attendance was significant at 1%. Therefore, university should give emphasis for these determinants and further study should be conducted to identify other factors which hinder academic performance of the student.

Authors: Abdelkader Noha , Arslan Elif Keskin , Coskun Hilal Erol- , Küçüksolak Gözde , Kaplan Yusuf Cem 
Published: June 2018

Objective: To evaluate the available human data to-date in order to assess whether the prenatal exposure to botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) is associated with major congenital malformations and other adverse pregnancy outcomes.
Methods: Searches were conducted in PubMed/MEDLINE and Reprotox in November 2017. Cohort and case-control studies, case series, case reports were the primary data of interest.
Results: No controlled studies but case series and case reports of therapeutic BTX-A administration during pregnancy were identified. Case reports regarding pregnant women with botulism were also reviewed.
Conclusions: Limited data suggests that BTX-A exposure for therapeutic indications during pregnancy does not seem to be associated with an increase in risk of major congenital malformations. Rates of fetal loss were substantially different between prospective and retrospective data. Controlled epidemiological studies are needed to refute or support our findings.

Fokus artikel ini adalah untuk menggambarkan bagaimana hubungan patron-klien dalam masyarakat Bajo dan apa kekuatan pelindung yang mempengaruhi masyarakat Bajo dalam pemilihan umum pemimpin lokal. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode studi kasus pada masyarakat Bajo di Desa Marobo pada saat pemilihan pemimpin lokal Kabupaten Muna 2015. Teknik datanya adalah melalui observasi dan wawancara. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa hubungan masyarakat Bajo di Desa Marobo adalah patron-client. Masyarakat Bajo memiliki hubungan dengan pemimpin formal (tokoh kepala desa dan kepala desa / Bajo) serta pemimpin non-formal (orang kaya) sebagai patron mereka. Sikap politik Bajo sangat ditentukan oleh sikap politik patron. Orang-orang Bajo dalam menentukan sikap politik mereka sangat mempertimbangkan untuk manfaat jangka panjang bagi kehidupan mereka, bukan minat sesaat. Sikap politik orang Bajo tidak hanya dicapai dengan mengandalkan kekuatan politik uang. Pemilihan patron yang tepat akan menentukan pemilihan pasangan calon dalam masyarakat Bajo. Pembina yang memiliki hubungan terstruktur formal dan informal dan hubungan yang intens dengan masyarakat Bajo lebih berpengaruh kepada pelanggan yang hanya bergantung pada faktor kekerabatan, kekerasan dan sementara.

Published: June 2018

The investigation of the exact solutions of NLPDEs plays an im-
portant role for the understanding of most nonlinear physical phenomena.
Also, the exact solutions of this equations aid the numerical solvers to assess
the correctness of their results. In this paper, (G'/G)-expansion method is pre-
sented to construct exact solutions of the Perturbed Wadati-Segur-Ablowitz
equation. Obtained the exact solutions are expressed by the hyperbolic, the
trigonometric and the rational functions. All calculations have been made with
the aid of Maple program. It is shown that the proposed algorithm is elemen-
tary, e¤ective and has been used for many PDEs in mathematical physics.

Introdução: A esclerose múltipla caracteriza-se pela presença de lesões inflamatórias a nível do encéfalo e medula espinhal. A ressonância magnética é atualmente um exame indispensável no diagnóstico, na avaliação da atividade da doença e na resposta ao tratamento. Embora na nossa prática as vantagens da ressonância magnética estejam bem estabelecidas, continuam a existir dificuldades técnicas (uso de sequências e protocolos não padronizados) e clínicas (frequência de exames não adequada) que podem dificultar o diagnóstico e o seguimento dos doentes. Neste contexto, o Grupo de Estudos de Esclerose Múltipla e a Sociedade Portuguesa de Neurorradiologia, após discussão conjunta, designaram um comité de peritos para a criação de recomendações adaptadas à realidade nacional sobre a utilização da ressonância magnética na esclerose múltipla. O objetivo deste documento é publicar as primeiras recomendações de consenso portuguesas sobre a utilização da ressonância magnética na esclerose múltiplana prática clínica.Material e Métodos: O Grupo de Estudos de Esclerose Múltipla e a Sociedade Portuguesa de Neurorradiologia, após discussão do tema em reuniões de âmbito nacional e de uma reunião do grupo de trabalho que teve lugar na Figueira da Foz em maio de 2017, designaram um comité de peritos que elaboraram por método de consenso vários protocolos padronizados sobre o uso da ressonância magnética no diagnóstico e seguimento da esclerose múltipla. O documento teve como base a melhor evidência científica e a opinião dos peritos. Posteriormente, o documento foi enviado para escrutínio à maioria dos responsáveis de consulta de esclerose múltipla e dos departamentos de neurorradiologia; os comentários e sugestões foram considerados. Os protocolos técnicos referentes à aquisição de imagem e a informação que deverá constar no relatório destes exames serão publicados numa publicação separada.Resultados: Neste artigo são propostas várias orientações práticas para promover estratégias padronizadas para serem aplicadas na prática clínica dos profissionais de saúde portugueses no que se refere ao uso da ressonância magnética na esclerose múltipla.Conclusão: Os autores esperam que estas primeiras orientações portuguesas, sobre a utilização da ressonância magnética na esclerose múltipla na prática clínica, baseadas nas melhores evidências e práticas clínicas disponíveis, sirvam para otimizar a gestão da esclerose múltipla e melhorar o tratamento destes doentes em Portugal.
