Published: June 2024

IntroductionTargeted herbicide application refers to precise application of herbicides in weed-infested areas according to the location and density of farmland weeds. At present, targeted herbicide application in wheat fields generally faces problems including the low herbicide adhesion rate, leading to omission and excessive loss of herbicides.MethodsTo solve these problems, changes in the impact force of herbicide and the weed leaves in the operation process of a spraying system were studied from the interaction between weeds and herbicides applied. A dynamic model of weed leaves was established. On this basis, the research indicated that the herbicide adhesion rate is highest under spraying pressure of 0.4 MPa and flow rate of 0.011 kg/s when the spray height is 300 mm. To study the dynamic deformation of weed leaves and the distribution of liquid herbicides in the external flow field under weed-herbicide interaction, a dynamic simulation model of herbicide application was built using the finite element method.Results and DiscussionThe results show that when the spray height is 300 mm, the maximum weed leaf deformation index (LDI) is 0.43 and the velocity in the external flow field is 0 m/s under spraying pressure of 0.4 MPa and flow rate of 0.011 kg/s. This finding indicates that the herbicide is not splashed elsewhere and the turbulence intensity in the weed area is 2%, implying steady flow of the herbicide, most of which can be retained on weed leaves. Field test results of application quality of the herbicide show that the maximum LDI is 0.41 and the coverage of the herbicide in the sheltered area below the leaves is 19.02% when the spraying pressure is 0.4 MPa, flow rate is 0.011 kg/s, and spray height is 300 mm. This solves the problem of a low rate of utilization of herbicides because the herbicide passes through weed plants, and achieves the precision herbicide application in wheat fields.

IntroductionForensic psychiatric patients receive treatment to address their violent and aggressive behavior with the aim of facilitating their safe reintegration into society. On average, these treatments are effective, but the magnitude of effect sizes tends to be small, even when considering more recent advancements in digital mental health innovations. Recent research indicates that wearable technology has positive effects on the physical and mental health of the general population, and may thus also be of use in forensic psychiatry, both for patients and staff members. Several applications and use cases of wearable technology hold promise, particularly for patients with mild intellectual disability or borderline intellectual functioning, as these devices are thought to be user-friendly and provide continuous daily feedback.MethodIn the current randomized crossover trial, we addressed several limitations from previous research and compared the (continuous) usability and acceptance of four selected wearable devices. Each device was worn for one week by staff members and patients, amounting to a total of four weeks. Two of the devices were general purpose fitness trackers, while the other two devices used custom made applications designed for bio-cueing and for providing insights into physiological reactivity to daily stressors and events.ResultsOur findings indicated significant differences in usability, acceptance and continuous use between devices. The highest usability scores were obtained for the two fitness trackers (Fitbit and Garmin) compared to the two devices employing custom made applications (Sense-IT and E4 dashboard). The results showed similar outcomes for patients and staff members.DiscussionNone of the devices obtained usability scores that would justify recommendation for future use considering international standards; a finding that raises concerns about the adaptation and uptake of wearable technology in the context of forensic psychiatry. We suggest that improvements in gamification and motivational aspects of wearable technology might be helpful to tackle several challenges related to wearable technology.
Older adults' attitudes toward using Euthanasia at the end-of life: cancer vs. Parkinson's disease

Published: June 2024

BackgroundThere is a paucity of studies that compare older adults' attitudes toward Euthanasia in two different terminal illnesses. Moreover, these studies did not relate to potentially influencing psycho-social factors. The current study aimed to examine the impact of a diverse range of variables on attitudes among older adults toward Euthanasia in two medical conditions: cancer and Parkinson's disease.MethodsA total of 501 individuals aged 75 and above participated in the study. Attitudes toward Euthanasia were measured using vignettes which described two conditions: an 80-year-old man with metastatic cancer and another man in an advanced stage of Parkinson's disease. The questionnaire included measures of relevant experience (with a close family member or a friend dying from a terminal illness), self-efficacy, will to live, satisfaction with life, will to prolong life, fear of death and dying, social support, and psycho-social characteristics. The data were analyzed using hierarchical linear regression models.ResultsA more positive attitude toward Euthanasia was found in the case of cancer compared to Parkinson's disease. Being a woman, having more years of education, lower level of religiosity, greater fear of death and dying and higher self-efficacy contributes to more favorable attitudes toward Euthanasia in both end-of life conditions.ConclusionsThe finding that attitudes toward Euthanasia are statistically significantly more positive in the case of cancer compared to Parkinson's disease can be attributed to the greater prevalence of cancer in the population, and to the public's awareness of the suffering associated with each of these medical conditions. Beyond the important role of the socio-demographic characteristics of gender, education, and religiosity, it appears that fear of death and dying and self-efficacy are important psychological factors in explaining attitudes toward Euthanasia in both illnesses among older people. These findings shed light on older adults' attitudes toward Euthanasia in debilitating illnesses.

Published: June 2024

IntroductionLinognathus stenopsis lice are an extensive parasitic concern in goat populations worldwide, posing significant economic and health risks. This study examined the identification of alleles of resistance to pyrethroid and mutations in L. stenopsis samples obtained from goats in five provinces in western and northwestern Iran.MethodsMorphological and molecular techniques were employed to identify the louse species. Molecular identification methods and gene sequencing were used to identify resistance-associated mutations in the voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC) gene.Results and discussionThe results revealed that six amino acid substitutions, including threonine-to-isoleucine (T917I), leucine-to-phenylalanine (L920F), isoleucine-to-phenylalanine (I927F), phenylalanine-to-alanine (F928A), valine-to-arginine (V929R), and arginine-to-leucine (R930L) mutations, were present in the VGSC gene of L. stenopsis lice from various regions of Iran. These findings suggest the potential for pyrethroid resistance development in this louse species, highlighting the importance of integrated pest management (IPM) strategies. Such strategies, which combine selective insecticides, regular grooming, and environmental sanitation, are crucial for effectively managing L. stenopsis infestations and preserving the efficacy of pyrethroids for pest control. Moreover, the emergence of novel kdr mutations underscores the need for ongoing research into the molecular mechanisms underlying these mutations. This research is vital for developing strategies to combat pyrethroid resistance and maintaining the efficacy of insecticides in controlling lice.
The Composition and Biochemical Properties of Strophantus (Apocynaceae), with a Focus on S. sarmentosus
Authors: König Simone 
Published: June 2024

The genus Strophantus belongs to the Apocynaceae family of flowering plants which grows primarily in tropical Africa. The plants are widely used in traditional herbal medicine. S. sarmentosus, in particular, is used for the treatment of, e.g., joint pain and rheumatoid arthritis, wound infections, head lice, diarrhea, snake bite, and eye conditions. Despite its widespread use, dedicated research characterizing its bioactive plant components is scarce. Investigations have focused mainly on its cardenolides because of their cardioactivity and historical use as cardiotonic. There are also studies concerning the antibacterial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activity of plant extracts. This review summarizes the present knowledge surrounding the biochemical and analytical research on Strophantus, in general, and S. sarmentosus, in particular, and describes the current state of the field based on the available scientific literature.

The article reveals the role of art in actualizing the knowledge of national history by the younger generation, aimed at re-evaluating the meanings that were distorted over the centuries by the Russian and later Soviet empires.
The author’s focus is on historical events in Ukrainian history of the 20th and 21st centuries, which have dramatic and tragic meanings.
Ukrainian-centrism is defined as the basis for forming the worldview orientations of young people through art and for re-evaluating the values of all subjects of the educational process. Ukrainianness of artistic thinking as the foundation of national-patriotic education is positioned as a point of reference and at the same time a reference point for Ukrainian-centrism as a technology of musical education.
A selective review of musical works dedicated to the events of the Holodomor, the Chernobyl tragedy, Ukraine’s struggle for independence on the Maidan in 2014, during the anti-terrorist operation, and the military realities of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine has been carried out. Among the authors of the works to which the article appeals are L. Dychko, S. Luniov, V. Polova, V. Sylvestrov, Ye. Stankovych, K. Tsepkolenko, Yu. Shevchenko, O. Shchetynskyi, O. Yakovchuk, S. Yarunskyi et al.
The landmark of psychological and pedagogical cultivation of an optimistic attitude towards the future as a vital need for Ukrainians is singled out. It is a key aspect of communication with pupils and student youth in the educational process based on music that actualizes historical events. The complexity of such communication regarding the embodiment of tragic images is emphasized. The necessity of forming a positive image of the future Ukraine through music that embodies the dramatic pages of Ukrainian history is emphasized. It is important for establishing the national identity of the youth and forming the motivation to protect one’s own cultural heritage.

INTRODUCTION. Over the past decades, there has been signiﬁcant growth in adhesive technologies for ﬁxed orthodontic appliances. Developments in adhesive systems have focused on simpliﬁed methods of use, improved composition and high bonding ability to tooth structure.AIM. The aim of this study is to compare the shear bond strength of a 5th generation adhesive system and a universal adhesive system in two etching techniques for ﬁxation of metal brackets.MATERIALS AND METHODS. The study consisted sample of 30 removed human upper premolars. The teeth were randomly distributed into three groups, 10 in each group. In the group 1, the Transbond XT adhesive system (3M Unitek) was used, in the group 2 – the universal adhesive Tetric N bond Universal (Vivapen) in the etching technique, in the group 3 – Tetric N bond Universal (Vivapen) in the self-etching technique. The study used metal brackets for upper premolars Gemini Bracket MBT (3M Unitek, USA) with a micro-engraved base with an area of 10.61 mm.RESULTS. In group 1, the shear strength value was 21.2 ± 3.2 MPa, in group 2 – 21.6 ± 5.2 MPa, in group 3 – 17.7 ± 6.4 MPa. There were no statistically signiﬁcant diﬀerences between the study groups. According to the study, a decrease in the level of adhesive force was found when using a universal adhesive without prior etching of the enamel with phosphoric acid. However, this level remained within the clinically recommended range.CONCLUSIONS. Thus, all studied adhesive systems used in various etching techniques demonstrated high adhesive performance, providing strong adhesion of the orthodontic structure to the tooth surface.

Published: June 2024

عاشت مصر لحظات متعثرة في تاريخها خلال القرن الخامس ق.م، فكان دخول الفرس لها سهلاً من خلال الصحراء الشرقية، لم يتمكن الجيش المكون أغلبه من المرتزقة الإغريق من التصدي للفرس، فاضطر الملك المصري بسماتيك الثالث للتراجع ، واستغل قمبيز الفرصة وحاصر الجيش المصري في منف.
احتل قمبيز مصر، وفكر في التقرب من الشعب مصر وعندما فشل، ظهر الوجه الآخر له، فبدأ التعامل بوحشية مفرطة وبعد وفاته، تولى الملك دارا الذي لم يختلف عنه، وعندما انشغل داريوس بحرب المدن الأيونية التي انهزم فيها الفرس، استغل المصريون الفرصة لإعلان الثورة على الفرس، وعندما علم داريوس بالأمر، توعد المصريين بأشد أنواع العقاب لكنه مات قبل أن ينفذ تهديده.
كما قام اكزركسيس بقمع الثورة حتى مات هو أيضًا، وتولى بعده ابنه اكزركسيس الثاني الذي استمر في حربه ضد اليونان، ولكن هذه المرة استغل المصريين كجنود تُحارب معه حتى اغتيل هو أيضًا على يد قائد الحرس، فاستغل المصريون الفرصة ثانية وأعلنوا الثورة، كما دخل أهل كيرينايكا في صراع مع الفرس بسبب تدخل الفرس في الحرب الأهلية داخل إقليم كيرينايكا، وفي اغلب الاوقات وقفت المدن الاغريقية إلى جانب الثوار وذلك للحد من الخطر الفارسي الذي كان يهددها
مقام النبوة بين اليهودية والإسلام

Published: June 2024

لقد اهتم البحث بمقام النبوة، من حيث مضمونها ولوازمها في الديانتين اليهودية والإسلام، لأنها الأساس لكل دين وهي القاسم المشترك بين الأديان السماوية.
وقد قسم البحث إلى مبحثين تناول المبحث الأول: مصطلح النبوة والرسالة من حيث اللغة والاصطلاح، ومفهومها عند اليهود، ومواطن الانحراف عندهم، وما ترتب عليه من تبعات كانت سبب انحراف اليهود فيما بعد.
وتضمن كذلك مفهوم النبوة عند المسلمين، كما تطرق البحث إلى صفات الأنبياء عليهم الصلاة والسلام في الديانتين كما ورد في الكتاب المقدس والقرآن الكريم.
أما المبحث الثاني فقد تناول فيه الباحث لوازم النبوة، حيث تطرق الباحث للوحى وصوره في الديانتين وما نتج عنه من فهم، وكذلك العصمة وما ترتب عليها من مخالفات عند اليهود ومقارنة ذلك بالإسلام
