Abstract
The common bean is one of the most widely used sources of plant protein in the human diet in developing countries. Despite its importance, production remains relatively low and is likely to worsen as a result of climatic disturbances. In sub-Saharan Africa, rainfall is the most limiting climatic variable for bean production. Using the best genotypes and sowing dates has proven to be the best solution to overcome these constraints. Then, the aim of this study was to evaluate the performance and stability of common bean genotypes under different sowing dates in Lubumbashi agro-ecological conditions. The trial was carried out during two consecutive years using a split-plot design consisting of sowing date ‘main plot’ and genotype ‘sub-plots’, replicated three times. The results showed that 2020 had less rainfall than 2019 (774.2 and 812.6 mm, respectively). Significant interactions were observed between genotype and sowing date (E × G), year and genotype (G × Y), sowing date and year (E × Y), and genotype, sowing date and year (E × G × Y). Higher phenotypic variation for yield (184313.5) than genotypic variation (95524.2) as well as for the other observed traits. High heritability for the trait day at flowering (JFL) (0.7) and low heritability (0.1) for plant height (HP.28.JAS) and 0.5 for yield, highlighting the influence of environmental factors (sowing date). The GGE biplot identified genotypes V8 (1,178 kg ha−1) and V9 (985 kg ha−1) as the best performing and most stable genotypes, compared to genotypes V2 (650.4 kg−1) and V5 (646.3 kg ha−1), which were stable but less successful. The most favorable environments were identified as E8, E4, and E5. Despite the climatic disturbances, some common bean genotypes show good plasticity, and using them would increase production, which depends not only on the potential of the genotype but also on the time of sowing.
Die Förderungswürdigkeit des „Mündigen Siegers“ durch die Kunst zum Ausdruck bringen

Zusammenfassung
Ausgehend von der Sackgasse, in welcher sich die Diskussion um den Sinn und Zweck einer staatlichen Spitzensportförderung in Deutschland befindet, greift der vorliegende Beitrag das Leitbild des „Mündigen Siegers“ als Alternative zu einer bislang rein erfolgsorientierten Förderlogik auf. Zur Identifizierung „Mündiger Sieger“, die über eine Medaille hinausreicht, wird das Selbst-Verständnis derartiger Persönlichkeiten zum Schmerz und zur Kontingenz aufgefasst, vor allem aber die selbst-bewusste Mündigkeit, sich das Leid zur Leidenschaft und die Kontingenz in Form einer erstrebenswerten Lebenskunst anzuverwandeln. Soll dieser Prozess zudem eine zivilgesellschaftliche (Vorbild)Funktion erfüllen, muss das Vorbildhafte dann jedoch auch mitteilbar werden. Hierfür wird in der Kunst eine bislang unberücksichtigte Möglichkeit gesehen, was nicht allein in der argumentationslogischen Konsequenz des Beitrags mündet, sondern am Beispiel konkreter Kunstwerke zum Ausdruck gebracht und somit zur Diskussion gestellt wird.
Remedies for a Prince with a Nosebleed: SAA 10, 321–322 and the Missing Medical Tablet of Urad-Nanaya
Authors: Simkó Krisztián 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
K 1452, a previously unpublished tablet from the Kouyunjik Collection in the British Museum, contains pharmaceutical remedies and incantations against nasal haemorrhage. The format of this tablet suggests that it was prepared for practical purposes. Neo-Assyrian medical letters offer the closest parallels in Nineveh, and two of them, SAA 10, 321 and 322, record remedies for a prince suffering from a heavy nosebleed. The former letter also mentions a text (mašṭaru) sent by the chief physician. In this paper, it is argued that K 1452 may very well be the text mentioned in SAA 10 321.
Work on this paper has benefitted from two text-reading seminars, where I had the opportunity to present my preliminary edition of K 1452. I want to express my sincere thanks to the organisers, Mark Weeden (London Cuneiforum) and Mark Geller (NinMed – Nineveh Medicine), and everyone who participated in these two online reading groups. I want to thank Irving Finkel, who has graciously given his time discussing difficult philological problems and numerous questions at the interpretative level. I am also grateful to Cale Johnson for his many corrections and helpful comments on earlier drafts of this paper, and to Jon Taylor for providing me with valuable insights into the handwriting of texts in the Kouyunjik Collection.

Abstract
Fumigation as a healing procedure was a widely used technique in Mesopotamian medicine with textual references to the existence of the medical-magical series ‘Fumigation’ known from the Late Babylonian period. BM 38438 represents a new manuscript of this text. In the first part of this paper, I provide a summary of all manuscripts of this medical-magical series ‘Fumigation’, while in the second part an edition of the new fragment will be presented.
I would like to thank the trustees of the British Museum, for permission to publish the tablet. I am very much indebted to M. J. Geller (University College London), J. Fincke (Leiden University) and the participants of an online reading group for cuneiform medicine (NinMed) organized by M. J. Geller for their suggestions and corrections. Needless to say I bear responsibility for any remaining errors.

НАСЛЕДИЕ ПРЕПОДОБНОЙ ЕВФРОСИНИИ, КНЯЖНЫ ПОЛОЦКОЙ: МУЗЕЕВЕДЧЕСКИЙ АСПЕКТ
Authors: Т.А. ДЖУМАНТАЕВА 
Published: November 2024

Предстоящий 900-летний юбилей старейшего Спасо-Евфросиниевского монастыря возвращает нас к необходимости пересмотра известных исторических и культурологических фактов, связанных с деятельностью выдающейся личности в истории Полоцка и православной церкви - преподобной Евфросинии Полоцкой. В статье учтены результаты недавних научных публикаций на заданную тему и по-новому решены некоторые вопросы репрезентации, интерпретации, актуализации и освоения материального и духовного наследия преподобной Евфросинии. С учетом последних научных исследований дан обзор объектов наследия. Кроме того, в свете музеефикации исторической территории Полоцка и превращения его в город-музей автор считает уместным и своевременным рассматривать перспективные возможности реконструкции христианской традиции через актуальные и доступные для широкой аудитории формы репрезентации наследия преподобной Евфросинии.
The relevance of the topic is caused by the approaching 900th anniversary of the Polotsk Savior-Euphrosyne Convent and the significance comprehension and perception of the heritage of Reverend Euphrosyne of Polotsk for modern people. Thanks to the adoption of Christianity and the spread of writing, the borrowing of Byzantine cultural models and the influence of Western European culture, in the 11th-12th centuries, the lands of modern Belarus entered the stage of European history. Euphrosyne of Polotsk played a major role in the political, economic and cultural development of the Polotsk land. The first East Slavic woman canonized by the Orthodox Church, she stood at the origins of the material embodiment of spiritual heritage of universal human values, perceived and transformed by her through rewriting and translating liturgical books, the construction of churches and the creation of iconographic programs for their decoration and the establishment of Christianity. The masterpieces of architecture, painting and decorative art created with her participation became the material embodiment of the spiritual heritage of the enlightener herself and had a significant impact on the spiritual and cultural development of other countries and peoples. The museological aspect of representation of the heritage of Reverend Euphrosyne, developed by the author, involves making her heritage relevant and accessible to a wide audience, up to interaction with the heritage through interactive museum tools, while maintaining a deep spiritual meaning. The article highlights current and prospective forms of representing the heritage of a unique personality in the history of Belarus and the Orthodox Church - Reverend Euphrosyne of Polotsk.
ОБРАЗ РУССКОЙ ПРАВОСЛАВНОЙ ЦЕРКВИ НА СТРАНИЦАХ ГАЗЕТЫ "ПРАВДА" В 1921 Г
Authors: В.В. ПЕРВУШИН 
Published: November 2024

Статья посвящена характеристике образа Русской православной церкви по материалам, опубликованным в 1921 г. в главном печатном органе РКП(б) - газете «Правда». Рассмотрены содержательное наполнение образа церкви, методы его конструирования и жанры, в которых он представлен. Установлено, что большинство публикаций, прямо или косвенно затрагивающих тему Церкви, относятся к аналитическим жанрам. Изучение содержательной стороны представленного образа показывает, что редакция «Правды» стремилась сформировать негативное отношение к Православной церкви. Выявленные приемы создания ее образа показывают, что образ Церкви был сконструирован на противоречиях, следовательно, создавал представление о его правдоподобности. В большинстве случаев для этого использовался понятный широкому кругу читателей образ «попа», наделяемый набором устойчивых отрицательных личностных качеств и отталкивающих черт внешности.
The period of the 1920s is of particular interest in the centuries-old history of state-church relations. This decade was marked by the process of formation and testing of the basic principles of anti-religious policy. Active anti-religious propaganda intended to create a negative attitude of the population toward the Orthodox Church was an integral part of this policy. The author reports the results of the study of materials published in the newspaper “Pravda” in 1921 that allow us to characterize the image of the Orthodox Church. The article considers the content of the image of the Church, the methods of its creation, and the genres of its presentation. The theme of the Church, in one way or another, was touched upon in more than 90 issues (about a third of issues in 1921), which indicates the urgency of this problem for the Bolshevik Party. Nearly half of the discovered materials relate to analytical newspaper genres. The study of the content of the presented image reveals the aim of forming a negative attitude towards the Church. It also indicates that the image was created by combining contradictory meanings. In the materials of “Pravda”, the Orthodox Church both posed a danger to the state and was afraid of it. The Church had a strong influence on the views of the citizens, and at the same time was rapidly losing its followers. It was a serious threat and an object of ridicule. In most cases, the image of the Church was communicated to the reader through the image of a “priest” who acted as a personified embodiment of Orthodoxy as a whole. Negative personal qualities and repulsive appearance traits were assigned to the priests and the laypeople. The pages of “Pravda” also reflected the internal party disputes about the tactics of implementing anti-religious policy and propaganda. For example, the question of presenting the image of a priest in theater plays became the subject of discussion by A.S. Serafimovich and A.V. Lunacharsky.
СБОРНИК "ВОПРОСЫ КОЛОНИЗАЦИИ" (1907-1917): СТАТУС, ИЗДАТЕЛЬСКИЕ ХАРАКТЕРИСТИКИ, АВТОРСКИЙ СОСТАВ, ПРОБЛЕМАТИКА
Authors: М.Ю. ЧУПИН 
Published: November 2024

Цель исследования - выявление источниковедческих особенностей и потенциала сборника «Вопросы колонизации» (1907-1917). В центре внимания автора находятся невыявленные или недостаточно исследованные источниковедческие аспекты данного сборника: причины и цели издания, изменение его статуса, тиражи, механизм распространения, читательская аудитория. Сборник представляет собой специальное издание, которое объединяло чиновников Переселенческого управления, занимавшихся общими и частными вопросами колонизационной политики (статистиков, агрономов, юристов). Со сменой редакторов сборника изменился его статус - от критического общественного к полуофициальному изданию. Целью сборника являлось формирование общественного мнения и оказание влияния на законодательные структуры по вопросам колонизации. Благодаря тиражу и механизму бесплатной рассылки сборник активно включался в научную и общественную коммуникацию, что давало возможность оказывать влияние на структуры правительства, законодательные органы и печатные издания.
The purpose of research is to identify source study features of the collected volume “Issues of Colonization” (“Voprosy kolonizatsii”). The study focuses on the following under-researched characteristics of the collection: purpose of publication, changes in its status, circulation, distribution mechanism, and readership. The collected volume was created by the Resettlement Administration officials, who positioned themselves as independent specialists. The study shows that with the change of editors, probably caused by the government pressure, the collected volume’s status also changed: from social criticism to performing the functions of an official publication. The purpose of the publication changed: from public control to the formation of public opinion and influencing legislative structures on issues of colonization. The circulation of the collection, comparable to other specialized publications, and the mechanism of free distribution to government agencies and editorial offices of printed publications ensured the inclusion of collection in scientific and public communication, which made it possible to influence the government and legislative bodies. The authors of collected volume were predominantly officials of the Resettlement Administration united by career and personal relations. The study identified the circle of main authors of the collection. The authors of “Issues of Colonization” represented various branches of knowledge related to colonization: statistics, agronomy, jurisprudence, hydraulic engineering, forestry, etc. The study counted the number of articles devoted to the research of various aspects of colonization and various regions of the Russian Empire. The authors pursued the ideas of the priority of quality over quantity in the resettlement of peasants, planned and comprehensive colonization, the advantages of commercial farms, “khutor” and “otrub” land management.

Published: November 2024

ABSTRACT
Peri-implant bone necrosis (PIBN) is a rare yet potentially serious phenomenon contributing to implant failure. It can be challenging to determine the exact etiology, especially when multiple intricate factors are involved. This case series reports on the successful management of PIBN during early and late implant placement and peri-implantitis-associated bone necrosis, with likely causes being bone over-compression during implant placement or a consequence of periimplantitis. This case series presents five cases of peri-implant bone necrosis, with three cases occurring immediately after implant placement and the other two presenting a delayed inflammatory process of peri-implantitis between one and five years after implant placement. Clinical presentation and histopathological evaluation data present ten failed implants managed with the removal of implants and the associated necrotic bone.
All the cases were successfully managed without any signs of recurrence. Two cases confirmed bone necrosis via biopsy, illustrating the typical pattern of bone necrosis: multiple non-vital bone fragments surrounded by acute and chronic inflammatory cells and empty lacunae. All cases were successfully managed by removing necrotic bone and associated implants, with no indication of bone necrosis recurrence.
Conclusions: This case series report highlights the unusual early and delayed implant failure associated with peri-implant bone necrosis. This condition most likely results from bone over-compression during implant placement or is a sequela of the inflammatory process of peri-implantitis.

Published: November 2024

Education plays an important role in sustainable global development and is essential for the fulfillment of all 17 SDGs. Universities are starting to train the new generations of specialists who will meet the objectives of sustainable rural development. The purpose of this paper was to identify the role of the USAMV CN Library through its resources, on the training of future specialists to respond to sustainability objectives. The methodology used to analyze the library's resources is the Universal Decimal Classification. The library database and the inventory registers with the publications fund were queried. It was found the existence of specialty fund for each faculty. The report no.titles/no.students is higher for Animal Husbandry and Biotechnologies and lower for Veterinary Medicine. The existence of publications dealing with the three pillars of sustainability in all the last 20 years was found. Most of the publications belong to the social pillar. Regarding the loan, it suddenly decreases starting with 2017. Also, it is higher at the beginning of the academic year and during the session. Most loans were made by the students of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. Most loans fall under the social pillar, followed by the environmental and the economic pillars.

Published: November 2024

Background: Ovarian malignancy is an important cause of mortality among women with most cases being diagnosed late and requiring aggressive management. The association between the final diagnosis on standard conventional histopathological sections and the examination of intraoperative frozen sections is an important tool for quality control. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the role of frozen section biopsy in diagnosing ovarian masses.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted in the department of obstetrics and gynecology, Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh during the period from January 2020 to December 2020. In our study, we included 50 diagnosed cases of ovarian masses who attended the department of obstetrics and gynecology in Dhaka Medical College Hospital for surgery.
Results: The mean age of the patients was 31.68±11.04 years. On the frozen section, forty-one patients (82%) were diagnosed as benign cases while nine patients (18%) were identified as malignant. The final histopathologic diagnosis revealed 38 (76%) as benign tumors and 12 (24%) as malignant tumors. Frozen section biopsy (FSB) was found to be 75% sensitive and it showed 100% specificity. The PPV, NPV, and diagnostic accuracy of FSB were found to be 100%, 92.6%, and 94% respectively. Among the three discordant cases, two were mucinous adenocarcinoma and one was papillary serous cyst adenocarcinoma.
Conclusions: This study showed a diagnostic accuracy of 94%, which is an eye-opener for gynecological oncologists regarding the usefulness of frozen section biopsy. Frozen section diagnoses can be extremely helpful in the clinical management of ovarian cancers.

Published: November 2024

Background: Cervical cancer is the fourth most prevalent cause of mortality from cancer in women worldwide. Inflammation is a significant predictor of cancer. Indications of inflammation include a high fibrinogen level and a low albumin level. Increased fibrinogen levels have been connected to the development and spread of cancer as well as a pro-inflammatory condition. The albumin/fibrinogen ratio (AFR), which is a combination of albumin and fibrinogen, has been proposed as a novel marker of inflammation. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of the albumin-to-fibrinogen ratio as a predictive marker of advanced-stage cervical cancer.
Methods: This was a prospective observational study conducted in the department of gynecological oncology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka, Bangladesh during the period from July 2022 to June 2023. In our study, we included 70 women with biopsy-proven cervical cancer attending the inpatient and outpatient departments of the gynecological oncology department at BSMMU.
Results: The mean age of the patients was 45.37±9.54 years. The mean albumin to fibrinogen ratio was lower in the advanced-stage group (9.77±1.21) compared to that in the early-stage group (10.74±1.54) and the difference between the two groups was statistically highly significant (p=0.005). Considering 10.7 as the cut-off value (by ROC curve) we found the sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV for AFR<10.7 was 85.71%, 62.86%, 69.77%, and 81.48%, respectively.
Conclusions: Our study findings show that the albumin-to-fibrinogen ratio (AFR) emerges as a promising prognostic marker to differentiate between advanced and early-stage cases and could aid in clinical decision-making.
