Authors: Shetty Hemanth Narayan , Acharya Divyashree 
Published: December 2023

Objective:
The present systematic review focused on exploring the published articles on the application of treatment of Bhramari Pranayama (BP) on Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI).

Methods:
A systematic search was carried out to identify the eligible studies exploring the effect of BP treatment on functional handicap caused by tinnitus in PubMed, Mesh PubMed, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, Francis and Taylor, Elsevier, Embase, Cochrane Library, PsycINFO, and IndMED in electronic databases. Studies on applying the treatment of BP on lessening functional impairment reflected in THI were identified following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Articles were screened for inclusion by two independent reviewers, with a third reviewer for adjudication. The Cochrane risk-of-bias tool was used to investigate the quality appraisal of the included studies.

Results:
Two studies were shortlisted, and the research design of two studies was a randomized control trial and multiple treatment randomized groups. There was a low risk in each of the studies. There was a strong causal relationship between BP and reduced handicap from tinnitus, with the estimated effect size of 0.86 and 0.92 in each study.

Conclusion:
This review highlights the application of the BP has reduced functional handicap among persons with tinnitus having a severity of a moderate degree of handicap.

BACKGROUND
Accurate diagnosis and early resection of colorectal polyps are important to prevent the occurrence of colorectal cancer. However, technical factors and morphological factors of polyps itself can lead to missed diagnoses. Image-enhanced endoscopy and chromoendoscopy (CE) have been developed to facilitate an accurate diagnosis. There have been no reports on visibility using a combination of texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI) and CE for colorectal tumors.
AIM
To investigate the visibility of margins and surfaces with the combination of TXI and CE for colorectal lesions.
METHODS
This retrospective study included patients who underwent lower gastrointestinal endoscopy at the Toyoshima Endoscopy Clinic. We extracted polyps that were resected and diagnosed as adenomas or serrated polyps (hyperplastic polyps and sessile serrated lesions) from our endoscopic database. An expert endoscopist performed the lower gastrointestinal endoscopies and observed the lesion using white light imaging (WLI), TXI, CE, and TXI + CE modalities. Indigo carmine dye was used for CE. Three expert endoscopists rated the visibility of the margin and surface patterns in four ranks, from 1 to 4. The primary outcomes were the average visibility scores for the margin and surface patterns based on the WLI, TXI, CE, and TXI + CE observations. Visibility scores between the four modalities were compared by the Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn tests.
RESULTS
A total of 48 patients with 81 polyps were assessed. The histological subtypes included 50 tubular adenomas, 16 hyperplastic polyps, and 15 sessile serrated lesions. The visibility scores for the margins based on WLI, TXI, CE, and TXI + CE were 2.44 ± 0.93, 2.90 ± 0.93, 3.37 ± 0.74, and 3.75 ± 0.49, respectively. The visibility scores for the surface based on WLI, TXI, CE, and TXI + CE were 2.25 ± 0.80, 2.84 ± 0.84, 3.12 ± 0.72, and 3.51 ± 0.60, respectively. The visibility scores for the detection and surface on TXI were significantly lower than that on CE but higher than that on WLI (P < 0.001). The visibility scores for the margin and surface on TXI + CE were significantly higher than those on CE (P < 0.001). In the sub-analysis of adenomas, the visibility for the margin and surface on TXI + CE was significantly better than that on WLI, TXI, and CE (P < 0.001). In the sub-analysis of serrated polyps, the visibility for the margin and surface on TXI + CE was also significantly better than that on WLI, TXI, and CE (P < 0.001).
CONCLUSION
TXI + CE enhanced the visibility of the margin and surface compared to WLI, TXI, and CE for colorectal lesions.

Civilized Death: The Issue of Stray Animals and Sports Mega- Events in Russia
Authors: Galindabaeva Vera 
Published: December 2023

The article examines how the strategy of constructing the social problem of animal cruelty in Russia has become successful in the context of preparing and holding sports mega- events. The constructionist theory of social problems by M. Spector, J. Kitsius, and J. Best is developed on the basis of N. Elias’s civilization theory, as well as on the studies of mega- events in non-western countries. The analytical scheme of hierarchically interconnected levels of industries of social problems initiating, in interaction, the very actualization of various social conditions on the threshold of mega- events is offered: these are regional, national, and international. Two cities were chosen, Kazan and Sochi, for the empirical fields of research. The research sample included materials from the media of regional and federal publications. The articles on the topic of stray animals in Sochi and Kazan in the eve of the sports mega- events were also searched on the websites of major international news agencies and newspapers. The method of discourse analysis was applied to the rhetoric of the main actors, to identify the main techniques of typification and the main discourses that are formed around the issue of the homeless animals’ treatment. Longitudinal media analysis allowed us to see how the rhetoric of actors of the national industry of social problems changes under the pressure of the international industry of social problems. We consider discursive constructions that are actively promoted at the regional level, but are modified or disappear at the federal and international levels.
“New Pearl Harbor” and US Digital Media 2001‑2002
Authors: Buranok Sergei O. , Tokmakova Polina D. 
Published: December 2023

The research topic is aimed at studying the means, methods and techniques of updating the metaphor “New Pearl Harbor” in the US foreign policy discourse. Analysis of the evolution of this metaphor in the US media in the 21st century allows us to talk about the formation of a special phenomenon of the socio-political life of the United States, the reconstruction and explanation of which is not possible within the framework of the traditional methodology of historical research, but requires an interdisciplinary approach based on historical imagology. The importance and significance of this metaphor is shown by the fact that in every foreign policy crisis, in every new threat, in every aggravation of the international situation, the metaphor “Pearl Harbor” was used in the United States. The metaphor “New Pearl Harbor” and its variation “Russian Pearl Harbor” is an important element of US foreign policy discourse and contemporary research. As a result of the research, it was established that the metaphor “New Pearl Harbor” is used both for “internal consumption” (political discourse) and for the external one. Moreover, in the 21st century, this metaphor very often arises in the coverage and analysis of contemporary Russian-American relations. The article shows the evolution of the “New Pearl Harbor” metaphor in the US digital media. Digital media in the United States reacted most quickly to changes in the use of the “New Pearl Harbor” metaphor. The article is intended for political scientists, historians and journalists.
Challenges and needs in Ladino teaching among ten language revitalisation activists
Authors: Fredholm Kent 
Published: December 2023

This article presents results from interviews with ten teachers engaged in Ladino (Judaeo-Spanish) revitalisation. The purpose of the study is to collect Ladino teachers’ experiences to understand the challenges they face and the needs they express to continue their activities.
Challenges were related to students’ linguistic backgrounds, students’ and teachers’ confidence about expressing themselves in Ladino, and to views on language normativity. The teachers expressed needs concerning finding stable teacher positions, about creating a Ladino proficiency test and certificate, developing resources for language teaching, and updating Ladino’s vocabulary to reflect contemporary life. Creating venues for learners to use the language, and opportunities for Ladino teachers to meet and discuss pedagogical issues were seen as important.
The teachers’ views differed considerably regarding questions on language norms, and an official language proficiency certificate. The results point to the need for further discussions, and for teacher development initiatives.
Stability analysis of robust control problems in linear descriptor systems with matching conditions
Authors: Khudhur Azhar Abbas , Jasim Sabeeh Lafta 
Published: December 2023

We investigate the optimal control equivalent and state feedback approach to linear time-invariant descriptor systems with norm-bounded uncertainty in matrix A(q). The goal is to find a controller that can stabilize the system even in the presence of random perturbations and to study the effect of initial conditions on the system’s stability. The systems with matching conditions and also linear algebraic equations with the full rank of the algebraic coefficient matrix are investigated. The solution to the optimal control problem (OCP) for the linear descriptor system (LDS) is the solution to the robust linear descriptor control problem provided. We will show that with theorems and examples.

Published: December 2023

Abstract. This study employed multiple techniques to investigate the contribution of grown new particles to the number concentration of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) at various supersaturation (SS) levels at a rural mountain site in the North China Plain from 29 June to 14 July 2019. On 8 new particle formation (NPF) days, the total particle number concentrations (Ncn) were 8.4 ± 6.1×103 cm−3, which was substantially higher compared to 4.7 ± 2.6×103 cm−3 on non-NPF days. However, the CCN concentration (Nccn) at 0.2 % SS and 0.4 % SS on the NPF days was significantly lower than those observed on non-NPF days (p<0.05). This was due to the lower cloud activation efficiency of preexisting particles resulting from organic vapor condensation and smaller number concentrations of preexisting particles on NPF days. A case-by-case examination showed that the grown new particles only yielded a detectable contribution to Nccn at 0.4 % SS and 1.0 % SS during the NPF event on 1 July 2019, accounting for 12 % ± 11 % and 23 % ± 12 % of Nccn, respectively. The increased Nccn during two other NPF events and at 0.2 % SS on 1 July 2019 were detectable but determined mainly by varying preexisting particles rather than grown new particles. In addition, the hygroscopicity parameter values, concentrations of inorganic and organic particulate components, and surface chemical composition of different sized particles were analyzed in terms of chemical drivers to grow new particles. The results showed that the grown new particles via organic vapor condensation generally had no detectable contribution to Nccn but incidentally did. However, this conclusion was drawn from a small size of observational data, leaving more observations, particularly long-term observations and the growth of preexisting particles to the CCN required size, needed for further investigation.

Unicompartimental knee arthroplasty metallosis treated with uni-on-uni revision: A case report
Authors: Toro Giuseppe , Braile Adriano , Conza Gianluca , De Cicco Annalisa , Abu Mukh Assala , Placella Giacomo , Salini Vincenzo 
Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND
Metallosis is the result of metallic wear debris in the soft tissues and is associated to both local and systemic inflammatory response. Metallosis has been reported after total hip and total knee arthroplasty (TKA), but rarely after a unicompartimental knee arthroplasty (UKA). In the context of UKA metallosis, surgeons often opt for revision using a TKA. However, in this paper, the authors successfully treated UKA revising the metal back only.
CASE SUMMARY
Prior to treat our patient we conducted a literature research through which we identified eleven cases of metallosis after UKA, ten (90.9%) were treated revising using though a TKA. Only one case was managed through a uni-on-uni revision, reporting high knee function. Our patient complained worsening pain and function after a snap occurred at 16 mo after UKA implantation. At 18 mo following surgical debridment and uni-on-uni revision surgery, our patient exhibited a relevant improvement in Oxford Knee Score and a reduction of metal ion levels in the blood.
CONCLUSION
Our study highlights that in case of metallosis after UKA, the treatment may be based on surgical debridement and just revising the mobilized components.

Authors: Oliveira Rejane Pivetta de , Pereira Júnior Alércio 
Published: December 2023

O artigo traça um percurso investigativo associado à criação musical. Sua proposição vincula-se ao conceito de antropofagia, ressaltando, no complexo ritualístico ameríndio, a presença indissociável da sonoridade e do ritmo no corpo e na própria linguagem. Em um segundo momento, o artigo discute as repercussões da antropofagia na criação musical contemporânea para, enfim, explicitar o processo que desentranha a canção “Jardim desencanto” do fragmento inicial de Memórias sentimentais de João Miramar, de Oswald de Andrade, considerando a hipótese que estilo telegráfico e cinematográfico do romance, somado a uma possível partitura Tupi (AZEVEDO, 2018), está na gênese do texto oswaldiano.

Cosecha de lluvia para regeneración de vegetación en zonas áridas - como antes, pero con las herramientas y tecnologías de hoy
Authors: Lupercio Huerta Felipe de Jesús 
Published: December 2023

Introducción. Los efectos del cambio climático son evidentes. Revertir este fenómeno es inaplazable, la sobrevivencia misma de nuestra especie está en riesgo. Se signan acuerdos internacionales en esta materia, de ellos se desprenden diversos programas de reforestación. Pero, debido a las sequías recurrentes, el éxito de dichos programas es errático en zonas áridas. En Caborca, como en otras partes de Sonora, en antaño se usó el entarquinamiento para sustentar la agricultura de temporal, esquema que se hacía a prueba y error mediante tiro animal. Localmente se llamó bolsas a esos embalses construidos para acumular agua de escorrentías, posteriormente se sembraban cultivos de temporal. Habitantes de Caborca en Sonora, México, tienen el recuerdo de los abuelos que trabajaban en las bolsas su temporal, así obtenían el sustento. Con la agricultura moderna, basada en extracción de aguas subterráneas y alta tecnificación, los sistemas de bolseo se abandonaron. Hoy día, es fácil ubicar las bolsas en las imágenes aéreas, densos bosques de árboles nativos invadieron profusamente los embalses y canales. Objetivo. Sustentar la reforestación con la construcción de sistemas de bolseo en el árido sonorense. Métodos. Con base en lo anterior, se propuso a la CONAFOR la estrategia de sistemas de bolseo entre 2010-2019, en donde se aprobaron diez proyectos de reforestación para la región noroeste de Sonora. Se utilizó laser, gps y maquinaria pesada para la construcción de una gran infraestructura de bolseo para cosecha de lluvia. Resultados y discusión. La infraestructura generada tiene potencial para infiltrar en el suelo 25 millones de m3 de agua/año; se bolsearon y reforestaron 2 300 ha; los bordos en curvas a nivel tienen 1.2 m de alto por seis metros de ancho en la base; sumando la longitud de los bordos construidos son 460 km. Actualmente, los árboles nativos están invadiendo ya los predios beneficiados, en los primeros proyectos la cubierta vegetal está próxima a 100%, y se implementó un sistema de silvopastoreo; con todo esto, se bajó el índice de agostadero de 60 a 10 ha/UA. Conclusión. Se demuestra la tecnología de bolseo
