Published: February 2025

The important thing in learning a language is understanding its cultural elements. Mastering the language means mastering the elements of its culture. The relationship between language and culture can’t be separated. According to Krasner (1999), for learners of a language are not only having language competence but also mastering and understanding the elements of culture. integrating the cultural elements based on its context is important because languages are not only the product of the culture but also symbols of cultures. The purpose of this study is to know how the importance of cultural recognition in teaching English.The purpose of teaching foreign language are to communicate fluently and acceptably both spoken and written according to the context, situation, and condition. Further, English teachers should conduct the activities of teaching and learning where the teaching language and teaching of culture linked together.To achieve this goal, teachers are expected to teach linguistic elements, language skills, and also integrate elements of culture in English classroom appropriately using the most suitable technique, method and approach.

Candidate genes controlling the taste qualities of garden strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) fruits
Authors: Mezhina K. M. , Tikhonova N. G. 
Published: February 2025

Strawberry (Fragaria L.) is one of the commercially valuable berry crops. Strawberries are valued for their attractive appearance and nutritional value, are a low-calorie product and have a low glycemic index. In the industrial production, preference is given to cultivars distinguished by good resistance to pathogens, high yield and transportability. However, probably as a result of breeding aimed at improving these and other characteristics, most industrial cultivars have lost their taste qualities. The use of accelerated breeding methods to improve the taste of strawberry fruits is one of the promising areas. At the first stages of work to accelerate breeding, it is necessary to search for candidate genes that regulate certain qualities. To date, a total of over 2,000 volatile aromatic compounds are known in various fruit crops. The components regulating the sugar-acid index include sugars and organic acids. The review examines a group of genes, including the SWEET gene family, which regulate the transfer of sugars from leaves to fruits in a number of crops. The genes involved in the biosynthesis of sugars, associated with the accumulation of malic acid in fruit trees, citric acid in citrus fruits, as well as genes regulating the basic taste qualities of fruits and berries are considered.. The key genes for flavor regulation in strawberry fruits are FaOMT, FaFAD1, and FanAAMT. The regulation of sucrose levels is influenced by the FaSPS, FaPHS1, FaSuc11, and FaSUSY genes, of glucose by FaGlu8 and FaGlu3, and of fructose by FaFRU. The content of citric acid is regulated by the FaMYB5 gene, while that of ascorbic acid is regulated by FaAKR23 and FaGalUR.
Prospects of Security Agencies’ Cooperation in Nepal
Authors: Upreti Yukesh 
Published: February 2025

In this ever-changing and dynamic global security environment, the need for security agency cooperation has been an integral part of national security. Security agency cooperation refers to the collaborative efforts among various national and international agencies aimed at achieving mutual security objectives through resource sharing, coordinated actions, and information exchange. In the context of Nepal, different internal and external factors have necessitated security agency cooperation to concentrate on profound national security. Currently, four security agencies are mandated in an umbrella framework of national security to promote national sovereignty, territorial integrity, and national unity. Notably, research conducted on national security has suggested enhancing security agency cooperation to counter the persistent threats to the nation. This paper aims to assess the effectiveness of security agencies cooperation in Nepal along with its benefit and challenges. The methodology engaged to meet the objective of research is a qualitative approach with descriptive and analytical research design. The research tool used by the researcher is an in-depth interview with ten key informants for accurate and authentic data. The acquired data are codified, and themes are analyzed through non-numeric unstructured data indexing, searching, and theorizing (NVIVO) software. The findings show that security agency cooperation is progressive in nature, and it would benefit from prompt service delivery, crisis responses, the formation of strong intelligence mechanisms, national and international recognition, and improved border security. Challenges such as legal jurisdiction, citizen distrust, lack of technical knowledge, and leadership apathy exist as major hindrances. The research suggests revising the role of the National Security Council, constructing an integrated command post, establishing a joint intelligence mechanism, and implementing a leadership familiarization program to enhance security agency cooperation
Climate Change and Its Impact on Biodiversity of Nepal
Authors: Kapri Chandra Shekhar 
Published: February 2025

Climate change and biodiversity are interdependent on each other. Increased average global temperatures, due to anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, along with extreme and unpredictable weather patterns, are key manifestations of climate change, significantly affecting the planet's biodiversity and further threatening the delicate balance of the ecosystem. Biodiversity, the cornerstone of ecosystem stability and resilience, is severely threatened by habitat loss, altered migration patterns, and increased frequency of extreme weather events. Nepal, with its variety of ecosystems, vegetation types, diverse forest cover, and a wide range of plant and animal species, is exceptionally rich in biodiversity; however, it is also not spared. Located in the lap of the Hindu Kush-Himalayan region with a unique topography, Nepal is one of the most susceptible countries to confront the harmful impacts of climate change and requires appropriate urgent proactive actions. This paper examines the multifaceted relationship between climate change and biodiversity in Nepal, highlighting the threats posed by rising temperatures, altered precipitation patterns, and increased requency of extreme weather events. Through qualitative content analysis of existing literature and empirical data, this study aims to identify effective strategies for mitigating climate change's adverse effects on Nepal's biodiversity. The finding has emphasised the Community Forest program as a 'Go Green Campaign,’ increasing the role of local governments and the Nepali Army in nature conservation, stringent law enforcement, funding increase towards climate change, promoting national and international collaboration to enhance the resilience of climate change and biodiversity conservation in Nepal.

Background: Retrograde transvenous obliteration is an endovascular interventional radiology procedure demonstrating safety and efficacy for secondary prophylaxis in high-risk gastric varices. However, its efficacy as primary prophylaxis is uncertain. We conducted a systematic review and case series to evaluate the utility of this technique. Methods: A literature search utilized EMBASE, MEDLINE, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. Inclusion criteria involved single technique obliteration, known varices, and exclusively primary prophylaxis. The primary outcome was gastric variceal bleeding, with secondary outcomes of technical success, variceal eradication, adverse events, and mortality. A retrospective case series of nine patients who underwent primary prophylaxis at our North American centre was also conducted. Results: Of the 842 articles retrieved, 69 were eligible for full-text review, with the 9 studies included in the final analysis involving balloon-occluded, but not plug-assisted or coil-assisted, techniques. Only 2/9 studies involved comparator groups, with a single prospective non-randomized trial, and there was a high risk of bias in 8/9 studies. The technical success rate of the balloon-occluded obliteration technique ranged from 82% to 100%, and the variceal eradication rate ranged from 88% to 100%. In comparative studies, patients had decreased variceal bleeding and bleeding-related mortality compared with control cohorts. Our case series demonstrated a 78% survival rate with no variceal bleeding. Post-procedure ascites and worsening esophageal varices ranged from 0–55% to 11–80%, respectively. Conclusion: This review summarizes evidence regarding the efficacy of retrograde transvenous obliteration, with available studies demonstrating a high success rate in eradicating varices and preventing bleeding-associated mortality, albeit with concerns of overall quality of existing literature.

Examining the Factors Enhancing Green Growth in BRICS Economies: Interplay between Economic Globalization, Renewable Energy Use, and Government Efficiency
Authors: Neffati Mohamed , Khemiri Imen 
Published: February 2025

Studying economic green growth (EGG) and identifying its drivers have always been crucial for understanding Arabia’s sustainable economic development. Given Arabia's extensive economic globalization process, potential impacts on the country's green growth include government effectiveness and inward energy consumption. This study examines the effects of globalization, renewable energy, and institutional quality on green growth across BRICS+ countries from 1996 to 2021. This research mainly empirically explores that economic development, institutional quality, and globalization generally support green growth, while renewable energy offers long-term benefits despite short-term challenges. Non-renewable energy and environmental factors like population growth and forest areas have mixed or context-dependent impacts. Policies aimed at advancing renewable energy and improving energy efficiency have proven highly effective in reducing emissions. However, careful management is necessary to mitigate the environmental impact of free trade and dependence on non-renewable energy sources.

Introduction. The problem of effectiveness and safe pharmacological means of reducing the consequences of exposure to the ionizing effect is becoming increasingly urgent. This solution is difficult due to the high chemical toxicity of all known modern effective radioprotectors. Nowadays, much attention is paid to the study of the radioprotective properties of the so-called effects. But in most of these works, the experimental model was subjected to a one-time acute irradiation. At the same time, a safe and effective radioprotective drug under conditions of fractionated irradiation will be useful in radiation therapy for oncological diseases and during space missions, as well as in conditions of radiation contamination of territories.Aim. Comparison of the radioprotective effect of copper chlorophyllin, riboxin, also called inosine, and the combined use of glutathione and ascorbic acid with that of the reference Russian radioprotector indralin during fractionated exposure to X-ray radiation.Materials and methods. Male ICR (CD-1) mice were exposed to five daily irradiations of 2.5 Gy. On the days of each irradiation, experimental animals were administered chlorophyllin (20 μg/g), indralin (50 μg/g) in a solution of tartaric acid or glutathione (250 μg/g) and ascorbic acid (150 μg/g) before irradiation or riboxin (200 μg/g) after irradiation. The survival of mice was assessed within 30 days after the last irradiation.Result and discussion. Only the use of Riboxin ensured the survival of 10 % of irradiated animals, but without a statistically significant increase in the average life expectancy of dead animals relative to the group of intact mice. A significant increase in this parameter was provided only by the use of indralin. Copper chlorophyllin had no radioprotective effect. Perhaps the use of metal-free chlorophyll derivatives in the future will be able to have a radioprotective effect under these conditions. The combined use of glutathione and ascorbic acid led to the death of 2 out of 10 mice during the period of irradiation and drug administration, without providing an increase in survival during the observation period.Conclusion. The use of copper chlorophyllin and glutathione with ascorbic acid did not increase the survival rate and average life expectancy of deceased mice irradiated at a dose of 12.5 Gy, distributed into 5 fractions of 2.5 Gy. The use of indralin only increased the life expectancy of dead animals. Riboxin contributed to the survival of 10 % of the corresponding group.

Published: February 2025

BackgroundIn recent years, there has been a notable increase in the prevalence of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) among children in China. To enhance the efficacy of ASD intervention apps and streamline the design process for designers, this study proposes an interface design research method for ASD intervention apps based on the Kano-entropy weight method.MethodsFirst, the basic research process for ASD children is extracted by combining the characteristics of the Kano model and the entropy method. Additionally, representative app samples currently available on the market are collected and organized. Subsequently, the representative needs of ASD children are subjected to analysis and synthesis. Secondly, the data obtained from the questionnaires are organized, and the entropy method is employed to calculate the weight of the need indicators. Subsequently, the characteristics of the intervention apps and the magnitude of the weight values are employed in the analysis of different categories of needs. The case design practice is conducted with a focus on strengthening the effectiveness of the intervention apps from a human-computer interaction perspective, with a particular emphasis on relevant ASD children’s intervention training. The study employs the Kano-entropy weight method to analyze the demand indicators for ASD intervention apps in terms of content, usability, and visual design through survey analysis.ResultsThis study compiled 26 pieces of user demand information, extracted 17 specific indicators, and classified them into three types: content-based, operable, and visual. The interface design of the intervention app focuses on improving emotional abilities. Further enrich the content of the ASD children’s intervention app, improve its operation, enhance visual appeal, provide reference and basis for subsequent related designs, and improve the effectiveness of intervention training.ConclusionsThe objective is to enhance the efficacy of the apps from the perspective of human-computer interaction. This endeavor seeks to furnish pertinent theoretical references for the design of navigation interfaces for intervention apps and to provide effective assistance to educators and designers.
L’utopie réalisée : Thomas More en Nouvelle-Espagne
Authors: Armogathe Jean-Robert 
Published: February 2025

Un exemplaire de l’ Utopia de Thomas More (Bâle, 1518), conservé dans la Bibliothèque de l’Université d’Austin (Texas), comporte de nombreuses notes marginales. Il a appartenu à Juan de Zumárraga (1468-1548), premier évêque de Mexico, auteur probable de ces notes. Or son proche ami Vasco de Quiroga (1470 ?-1565), auditeur de la Deuxième Audience en Nouvelle-Espagne, puis, en 1538, évêque du nouveau diocèse de Michoacán, mentionne Thomas More, « homme illustre et plus qu’humain », dans son Información en derecho sobre algunas provisiones del Real consejo de Indias (1535), et il soutient que le modèle de république proposé par l’humaniste anglais convient parfaitement aux Indiens, chez qui il retrouve les « hommes d’or » des Saturnales
de Lucien. Dans les Lois et Ordonnances
qu’il a établies pour les villages-hôpitaux où il a rassemblé les Indiens, il propose des mesures que l’on peut souvent rapprocher de passages soulignés ou commentés dans l’exemplaire conservé à Austin. Ce projet n’est pas seulement une tentative unique de réaliser l’utopie morienne : en essayant de reconstituer un âge d’or de l’Église primitive, Vasco de Quiroga témoignait de la tension eschatologique d’un Nouveau monde fort de toutes les promesses.
