Authors: Ünal Ezgi , Narcı Hüseyin , Ayrık Cüneyt , Erdoğan Semra 
Published: February 2025

Abstract

Aim: In this study, we sought to investigate the success of nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs ) in predicting disease severity and mortality in patients with AP.
Methods: This single-center, retrospective study was conducted in AP patients admitted to the emergency department. NRBCs values and other laboratory data were recorded in the study form. Patients were divided into three groups according to disease severity (mild, moderate and severe) and two groups according to outcome (survivors and non-survivors). Results: Half of the 296 patients included in the study were male and the mean age was 55.6±17.9 years. NRBCs values were higher in severe cases than in mild and moderate groups. In the Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis performed to determine disease severity, the specificity, sensitivity and area under curve (AUC) values for NRBCs were 58,8%, 91.8%, and 0.755, respectively. The NRBCs values were higher in non-survivors patients than in survivors patients. In the ROC analysis performed to detect non-survivors patients, the specificity sensitivity and AUC values for NRBCs were 63,6%, 90,9% and 0.770, respectively.
Conclusion: In AP patients, high NRBCs levels may be successful in predicting both disease severity and mortality. However, more studies are needed for clinical use

Authors: PAVLIUK Nonna 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This paper demonstrates an influence of the anthropogenic Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emission trend on climate talks aimed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The influence of commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, undertaken by the largest emitter countries within the framework of international treaties (the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement), on the fossil energy consumption and CO2 emissions from the combustion of various types of fuel by these countries has been analyzed. Emissions from the European Union (EU), as well as consumption of renewable and alternative energy sources by countries are beyond the subject of this paper.
The paper focuses on the obligations that the largest emitters of greenhouse gas emissions are ready to undertake in order to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. The impact of the country’s choice of the base year on its ambitious climate action to reduce emissions has been evaluated. Challenges that the countries may face in the implementation of the Net Zero by 2050: A Roadmap for the Global Energy Sector, developed by the International Energy Agency (IEA), have been identified.

Authors: WYCZARSKA-KOKOT Joanna 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Contemporary requirements on the quality of swimming pool water necessitate the improvement of the classical technology of its treatment. It is associated with the need to modernize installations or implement a new technology. The purpose of the analysis is to compare the effects of using classical and modified technologies for the treatment of swimming pool water in sports and recreational pools with similar characteristics. The research was carried out for ten pools, which were divided into two groups – pools with a classical water treatment system and a modified one. The conducted tests showed significant differences in water quality in terms of: pH, redox, permanganate index (CODMn), total organic carbon (TOC), free chlorine, combined chlorine, chloroform and trihalomethanes (THMs), and no differences in terms of: temperature, turbidity, nitrates and ammonium ion. It was found that the modified swimming pool water treatment technologies made it possible to obtain water of better quality with regard to physical, chemical and bacteriological properties.

Published: February 2025

Photoselective netting is well-known for filtering the intercepted solar radiation and affecting light quality. However, more information is needed about how horticulture manipulation of light quantity and quality affects avocado rootstock seedlings' growth and physiological traits. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of colored shading on the growth and development of avocado creole for planting production. A completely randomized experimental design with four treatments and five repetitions was used. The treatments included colored nets (red, black, white, and control – without a net). Net shading treatments affected leaf number, leaf area, leaf area index, rootstock diameter and length, dry matter, Dickson quality index, and all gas exchange variables. In contrast, specific leaf area and root length were not affected by the colored net. The red net generally increased the rootstock diameter and length, Dickson quality index, and net photosynthesis and water use efficiency more than the black, white net, and full sunlight growth conditions. This study reveals that changing the light intensity allows rootstock growth and physiological performance to be manipulated using different colored shade nets.

Published: February 2025

There is growing interest in large-scale breeding of black soldier fly (BSF) larvae due to their ability to consume a wide variety of organic materials. This study aimed to standardize the key developmental phases of Hermetia illucens within a rearing unit under marginal conditions (2160 meters above sea level; Temperature 14 °C average annual precipitation of 1800 mm) in an Andean Temperate Forest ecosystem. The primary objective was to optimize the production of 5-day-old larvae. A subdivided plot design was employed, incorporating two cage types, three attractants types, two glasses and three egg-laying sites, with three replicates for each combination, resulting in a total of 108 experimental units. The following factors were compared: cage type (Zurbrügg type cage and a cage proposed by the University of Caldas), attractant (organic waste, fermented waste, and a mixture containing 100 grams of dead black soldier fly adults), drinkers (cotton and sponge) and egg-laying sites (three different dimensions (A: 45 cm x 12 cm x 7 cm, B: 24 cm x 7 cm x 3 cm, and C: 12 cm x 1.2 cm x 0.5 cm)The combination of the University of Caldas cage, sponge drinkers, and the type C attractant yielded the most promising results in terms of egg weight and projected larval population size under the specific marginal conditions of the study area. The findings of this study will help to promote strategies to transform organic waste using BSF larvae in marginal conditions.

Authors: Дубровина М.Э. 
Published: February 2025

Настоящее исследование посвящено анализу форм страдательного залога в современном турецком и английском языках. Исследование проводится в рамках сопоставительного типологического подхода, когда особенности значений и сферы функционирования этих форм сравниваются друг с другом с целью выяснения общих и отличных черт. В результате становится понятно, что, несмотря на различный тип языков и различный план выражения, турецкий и английский пассив имеют много схожего в речевом употреблении: обе формы являются продуктивным средством, имеют два значения (собственно-страдательное и неопределенно-личное) и могут употребляться в предложениях как с выраженным агенсом, так и без него.
This study focuses on the analysis of the passive voice forms in the modern Turkish and English languages. The research is carried out within the framework of a comparative typological approach, when the meanings and functioning of these forms are compared with each other in order to clarify common and distinct features. As a result, it becomes clear that despite the different type of languages and different plane of expression, the Turkish and English passive have many similarities in speech usage. Both forms are productive, have two meanings: passive and indefinite-personal, and can be used in sentences with or without an expressed agent.

Published: February 2025

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To determine whether Miniature Horse mares are predisposed to hemoperitoneum from nonneoplastic ovarian hemorrhage and report the clinical characteristics of this disorder.

ANIMALS
51 equines with hemoperitoneum, including 22 nonminiature mares and 9 Miniature Horse mares, identified by searching medical records of a tertiary large animal hospital for confirmed hemoperitoneum cases between 2012 and 2023.

CLINICAL PRESENTATION
Signs of hemoperitoneum in miniature mares included lethargy, inappetence, colic, tachycardia, and moderate to severe anemia (PCV ranging from 11% to 19%). Five miniature mares did not survive and were necropsied.

RESULTS
Miniature Horse mares were markedly overrepresented at 29% of hemoperitoneum mares, and no miniature stallions or geldings with hemoperitoneum were identified. In nonminiature mares, hemoperitoneum was attributed to intestinal strangulation (n = 4), suspected or confirmed neoplasia (11), peripartum uterine artery rupture (2), splenic trauma (3), ovarian hematoma (1), and spontaneous broad ligament hematoma (1). In miniature mares, ruptured corpus hemorrhagicum (n = 4) and ovarian hemorrhage (1) were confirmed at necropsy. The other 4 miniature mares survived with no definitive cause of hemoperitoneum identified on extensive diagnostics; 1 was treated for hemoperitoneum again 6 years later, at which time a corpus hemorrhagicum was suspected on ovarian ultrasound. Two miniature mares in first-trimester gestation during treatment for hemoperitoneum subsequently produced normal foals.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE
Ovarian hemorrhage is an uncommon cause of hemoperitoneum in equines; however, it should be considered a likely differential diagnosis for hemoperitoneum in miniature mares, including during pregnancy. Reproductive tract assessment should be performed in equine hemoperitoneum cases, particularly for miniature mares.

AbstrakTelah dirancang suatu sistem otomasi rotary sample collector berbasis mikrokontroler ATmega8535 untuk pengisian tabung reaksi secara otomatis. Rak tabung reaksi dirancang berbentuk piringan dari bahan karton tebal dengan diameter 22,7 cm dan massa 145 g, sedangkan poros pemutar piringan terbuat dari pipa PVC (polyvinyl chloride) berdiamter 2,2 cm dan massa 49,05 g. Sistem dirancang untuk mengisi dan merotasi 4 tabung reaksi. Pengisian tabung dengan zat cair dilakukan melalui kran elektrik (electric valve) yang katupnya dikontrol berdasarkan sinyal keluaran fotodioda. LED (light emitting diode) dan fotodioda berfungsi sebagai sistem sensor ketinggian zat cair dalam tabung. Ketika zat cair dalam tabung telah mencapai ketinggian tertentu, mikrokontroler mengirimkan sinyal untuk menutup katup kran, dan kemudian mengirim sinyal untuk menggerakkan motor stepper sejauh 90Â° (untuk 4 tabung). Ketika rotasi telah mencapai 90Â°, mikrokontroler mengirim sinyal untuk menghentikan motor stepper dan kemudian mengirimkan sinyal untuk membuka kran. Proses berulang hingga tabung ke-4 terisi. Tipe motor stepper yang digunakan adalah unipolar. Sistem motor stepper yang telah dibuat mampu memutar beban hinggaÂ 3445,36 g. Zat cair yang dapat dideteksi dalam sistem otomasi ini bergantung pada daya tembus cahaya yang dihasilkan LED; zat cair yang lebih bening memerlukan LED yang daya tembusnya lebih lemah.Kata kunci: rotary sample collector, motor stepper, LED dan fotodioda, ATmega8535.AbstractAn automation system of a rotary sample collector based on microcontroller ATmega8535 for filling test tubes has been designed.
