Abstract
The following discussion will consider practices and processes that a client should adopt in order to raise their confidence in the value of consulting work they commission. The discussion will focus on key criteria to facilitate success, whilst recognising that these alone will not result in valuable consulting outputs. A defined client scope will first be considered before moving on to collaboration and resources, trust, consultant expertise and governance framework before concluding how these factors contribute to the delivery of a valuable consultancy project outcome.
Chemical and pharmacological characterization of vasopressin antagonists
Authors: Hajnal Kelemen , Ágota-Noémi Barta 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in developed countries worldwide. In acute decompensated heart failure, hyponatraemia is common, often correlating with the severity of heart failure. In hyponatraemia, there is an excess of body water, for which therapy involves reducing water intake and increasing renal (electrolyte-free) water excretion. To achieve the latter, a new pharmacotherapeutic group has been introduced; the aquatic vasopressin antagonists, known as ‘vaptans’ (such as tolvaptan, satavaptan, etc.), which block vasopressin-2 (V2) receptors in the renal tubules. They have a unique mechanism of action; they promote water excretion and without affecting the excretion of other electrolytes (e.g., sodium ions). Vaptans have been shown to be effective in reversing hyponatraemia, syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH), and in managing heart and liver failure. In this review, we describe the history, preparation, physicochemical properties, structure-activity relationships, and pharmacological properties, as well as mechanism of action of vasopressin antagonists.

Authors: Puski Gabriella-Melinda , Varga Erzsébet 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Medlar (Mespilus germanica) is an exotic plant native to Central Asia and the southern slopes of the Caucasus, which was introduced to Europe during the Roman Empire. In its native habitats, it exists in both wild and cultivated forms. The plant is distinguished by its large, bright green leaves, white flowers, and unique fruit, making it a popular ornamental choice in botanical gardens and parks throughout Western Europe. The flowers typically bloom from late May to early June, and the fruit, which resembles an apple or an elongated pear, is suitable for human consumption. In the Caucasus region, the leaves, fruit, and bark of the medlar plant play a significant role in traditional folk medicine. It is cultivated in Italy, the Balkans, and in the Dobruja region of Romania, where it also grows spontaneously in the wild. The fruit, which weighs between 20 and 60 grams, is commonly used to produce jam, wine, jelly, and juice. Additionally, the leaves, bark, and fruit of the plant are recognized for their rich content of bioactive substances. Since the 2000s, the medlar plant has attracted considerable interest from researchers, with ongoing investigations into its active compounds and pharmacological properties. This study aims to present a literature review, highlighting that both the leaves and fruit are abundant in polyphenols, flavonoids, organic acids, minerals, and vitamin C. In the near future, the medlar fruit may emerge as a valuable raw material for the food and pharmaceutical industries, with the active substances extracted from its fruit and leaves potentially serving as significant resources in pharmaceutical applications.
The Concept of Reforming Military Justice System Specifically in the Termination of Investigations on the Regulation of Institutions and Authority of Military Police Investigations in Indonesia
Authors: Prasetyoandi Destri , Sulistiani Lies , Rusmiati Elis 
Published: January 2025

Objective: Military Criminal Procedure Law (HAPMIL) (Law No 31 of 1997) on Military Justice was found to require legal reform to correlate with current legal developments. The substance of this law should further adapt to evolving legal principles including the prompt resolution of cases and the realization of justice as well as legal benefits which were the objectives long desired in the scope of Military Justice in Indonesia.

Theoretical Framework: In this context, there have been no regulations allowing Military Police Investigators (POM) to terminate military case during the investigation stage, even when valid reasons for termination exist. Therefore, this study aimed to address the lack of authority granted to POM to terminate investigations which undermined the effectiveness of legal processes.

Method: The analysis further used a normative legal approach and concluded that empowering POM investigators with authority to terminate investigations would enhance the efficiency of law enforcement.

Results and Discussion: Specifically, when POM determined that an investigation lacked sufficient evidence to proceed terminating the process in accordance with legal provisions would ensure fairness and clarity for both the accused and investigators.

Research Implications: This study provides valuable insights for policymakers, agricultural practitioners, and stakeholders in Magetan Regency.

Originality/Value: This research offers a unique contribution to the existing literature on food security and land use planning. The findings of this study can be applied to other regions facing similar challenges, making it a valuable resource for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners.

Objective: The aim of this work is to show the application of Full Factorial Planning to an environmental problem.

Theoretical framework: Design of experiments is defined as a set of statistical techniques applied to the planning, conduct, analysis and interpretation of controlled tests, seeking to find (define) the factors that influence the values of a parameter or a group of parameters. Its basic principle makes it possible to vary all the levels of all the discrete or continuous variables (called factors) at once, for each experiment, in a programmed and rational way (Peixoto et al., 2008).

Method: Experiments were carried out in an industrial plant in the south of Rio de Janeiro and the data was treated using Full Factorial Design.

Final Considerations: It can be concluded that full factorial design is a very viable option for obtaining the optimum values or the optimum range of values to obtain the best possible response variable in a study. In this specific case of the company, it can be concluded that Line 1 and Line 3 are the most responsible for the concentration of nitrogen oxide discharged into the river and, therefore, the n-waste should be pre-treated.

Implications of the research: The use of Factorial Planning is multiplying in the scientific literature and is proving to be highly effective in dealing with data where the assumptions of Normality are not confirmed.

Originality/value: Despite being well-known statistical tools, Factorial Designs are widely used and can bring innovations to their application, as in the case of the company in question.
The Battle of the Atlantic, the “Air Gap,” and the Delay in Allocating Liberators to the Royal Canadian Air Force
Authors: Bell Christopher M. 
Published: January 2025

The gravest crisis of the Battle of the Atlantic came in the latter part of 1942 and early 1943 when German submarine forces concentrated in the central ocean, the “air gap” beyond the reach of shore based Allied maritime air forces. More capable aircraft were available, but not assigned to the maritime role until the spring of 1943. This article proposes a new methodology for understanding the reasons for the delay by examining the complex interactions among the navies, air forces, and politicians of the three Allied powers primarily responsible for trade defence in the Atlantic Ocean – Great Britain, the United States, and Canada – and exploring the special difficulties faced by the Royal Canadian Air Force.

Authors: Nurfitriani Ine , Faridah Didih , Rohayati Dedeh 
Published: January 2025

The phenomena of Covid-19 challenges the government in carrying out the classroom activity; for this reason, the government issued a policy to change studying activities which are commonly achieved in the classroom into studying from home throughout the Covid-19. This research discusses teacher and students’ talk in their online public speaking class interaction via zoom cloud meeting. The purpose of this study was aimed to find out the types of teachers and students chatting in their online interaction via zoom cloud meetings, the types of classroom interaction in public speaking class via zoom cloud meetings, and to find out students’ perceptions toward their teacher talk through zoom cloud meeting. The present study used a qualitative paradigm with the type of intrinsic case study. Thirteen students from a 2C public speaking class in an English education program, and an English lecturer participated in this research. The data taken from observation aims to find out types of teacher and students talk in public speaking class via zoom cloud meeting, and types of classroom interaction in public speaking class. Meanwhile, a set of questionnaires was employed to collect data about the students’ perceptions toward their teacher talk through zoom cloud meeting. The data from observation were proceeded by means of FLINT System to interpret teacher and students' talk; regarding the type of classroom interaction was adapted from Malamah-Thomas (1987 as cited in Alifea Asanuary Sharliz, 2017). The questionnaire data were analyzed using the Likert Scale measurement. The findings revealed that the types of teachers and student talk and the types of classroom interaction that occurred in class 2C were dominated by the teacher talk. Although students prefer to talk a lot in class, the results of this study indicated that the teacher talks more in class. The researcher suggests for the public speaking teacher to make changes in classroom activity for the coming semester, i.e., the teacher facilitates students to talk a lot during the process of teaching and learning.

Objetivo: Relatar um caso clínico que estabelece o diagnóstico diferencial de lesões odontogênicas, enfatizando os critérios diagnósticos utilizados para a exclusão ou confirmação dessas condições, visando oferecer uma abordagem de tratamento efetiva e de excelência. Detalhamento do caso: Paciente do sexo masculino, 9 anos, apresentou aumento de volume em região anterior da mandíbula, com mobilidade dentária, ausência do elemento 43, todavia, sem sintomatologia dolorosa. Na radiografia panorâmica, foi identificada uma lesão radiolúcida extensa, delimitada, envolvendo o deslocamento do dente 43 para região inferior da mandíbula. Para o diagnóstico diferencial, foi realizado exame histopatológico. A histopatologia desempenha um papel crucial no diagnóstico diferencial de lesões maxilofaciais, especialmente em casos onde as características clínicas e radiográficas são similares. A análise histopatológica permite descartar algumas condições, sendo fundamental para refinar o diagnóstico e direcionar o tratamento de forma mais eficaz. Considerações finais: Os cistos dentígero, queratocistos e odontomas complexos, representam lesões odontogênicas com características clínicas e radiográficas muito similares, sendo imprescindível a realização de exames histopatológicos. Essa diferenciação é essencial para evitar diagnósticos incorretos e tratamentos inadequados, uma vez que cada lesão possui um potencial patogênico e uma resposta terapêutica distintas.

Authors: Федорова А.Р. , Ларионова А.С. 
Published: January 2025

В исследованиях традиционного костюма процесс его производства как социокультурное явление остается недостаточно раскрытым. В статье через призму историко-антропологического подхода рассматривается трансформация локального производства одежды в Якутии в конце XIX – ХХ вв. Для достижения этой цели привлечены разрозненные этнографические сведения, представленные в научной литературе, архивных документах и музейных коллекциях, а также собственные полевые материалы автора. В результате проведенного исследования установлено, что именно сохранение практик локального производства одежды способствовало тому, что традиционный якутский костюм продолжает оставаться востребованным в повседневной жизни.
In the issues of studying traditional costume, the very process of production as a socio-cultural phenomenon has previously been poorly studied. The article examines the changes in local production of clothing in Yakutia in the late 19th – 20th centuries from the point of view of historical and anthropological approach. To achieve this aim, ethnographic, archival and field materials are involved, with the help of which the everyday experience of the population of providing themselves with clothes during the period of modernization processes was considered. In the second half of the 20th century, localized clothing production developed in two vectors: home and factory production. The character and appearance of the products of these two directions demonstrates the influence of authorship on the appearance of costume and on the way traditions are reproduced. The article reveals that it was the practices of preserving home production of clothes and local production that contributed to the preservation of Yakut traditional costume in everyday life.
Исторические драмы Э. Радзинского как текстовое единство
Authors: Александрова И.В. 
Published: January 2025

Исторические драмы Э. Радзинского анализируются в аспекте проблемы сверхтекста, в частности, такого его типа, как текстовое единство, представленное одной из его разновидностей – несобранным (рецептивным) циклом. В числе циклообразующих свойств пьес Э. Радзинского выявлены общность их проблемно-тематического комплекса, конфликта, типов героев, сходство принципов воплощения пространственно-временного континуума, наличие системы сквозных мотивов, автореминисценций, художественной условности как авторской стратегии, жанрово-стилистических черт и общей модальной установки. Эти свойства побуждают к восприятию отдельных пьес как структурных компонентов единого целого, ядром которого является авторский идейно-художественный вектор.
The historical dramas of E. Radzinsky are analyzed in the aspect of the problem of supertext, in particular, as a type of textual unity. It is represented by one of its varieties – an uncollected (receptive) cycle, that is, a corpus of texts that have a number of unifying structural, semantic and stylistic features while maintaining the autonomy of individual works, the compositional correlation of which is not determined by the author. Among the cycle-forming properties of E. Radzinsky’s plays, the commonality of their problem-thematic complex, conflict, types of heroes, the similarity of the principles of embodiment of the space-time continuum, the presence of a system of cross-cutting motives, auto-reminiscences, artistic conventions as an author’s strategy, genre and stylistic features and a general modal setting were identified. The presence of these properties encourages the perception of separate plays as structural components of an indivisible interrity, the core of which is the author’s ideological and artistic vector. The paradigmatic relationships between the works in the cycle and the increments of meaning in each subsequent play are revealed, ensuring the internal dynamics of the textual unity and its logic.

Authors: Patil M. V. , Singla N. 
Published: January 2025

The aim. The synthesis of nanoparticles through green methods is a biologically safe, cost-effective and environmentally friendly approach. This study focuses on the green synthesis of copper nanoparticles using aqueous stem extract of Tinospora cordifolia. Additionally, this research explores the formulation of an acetyl amine-modified xanthan gum-based gel incorporating curcumin and a solution of Cu++ nanoparticles, and investigates its wound healing activity.Materials and methods. The shade-dried stem of Tinospora cordifolia was extracted with distilled water, which serves as a bio-reducing agent for the synthesis of Cu++ nanoparticles. Copper sulphate was added to the extract at room temperature using a magnetic stirrer. The visual color change during the addition indicates the formation of nanoparticles, which was further confirmed by UV spectroscopy and particle size analysis. The modified xanthan gum-based gel formulation was prepared using curcumin and a solution of Cu++ nanoparticles, and its wound healing activity was evaluated using the excision method, along with antimicrobial activity assessed by the cup and plate method.Results and discussion. UV absorption was observed at 261 nm, and the particle size was measured at 188 nm, confirming the formation of nanoparticles. The gel containing curcumin and Cu++ nanoparticles was prepared using modified xanthan gum. The nanocomposite exhibited significant antimicrobial activity against gram-positive bacteria compared to gram-negative bacteria. The group treated with the modified xanthan gum-based curcumin and nano copper composite demonstrated significant wound closure by day 16±2.Conclusion. The synthesis of Cu++ nanoparticles using Tinospora cordifolia and the formulation of a gel with modified xanthan gum and curcumin as a drug were successfully achieved. The gel formulation demonstrated significant antibacterial and wound healing activities, attributed to synergistic effect of Tinospora cordifolia, curcumin, and Cu++ nanoparticles.
