Published: January 2024

Goats are recognized as a vital and versatile livestock commodity with significant importance in rural farmers’ communities of developing countries, including Nepal. Growth, reproductive and litter performances are considered as the major economic traits of goats. This study was designed to compare the growth, reproduction and litter traits of goat kids and does at mid hill region for different non-genetic factors such as genetic groups (Khari, Boer 75% and 50%), parity (early, mid and late), season of conception and kidding (summer, autumn, winter, spring), sex (male and female) and type of birth (single, twins and triplet) under optimum management regime. Data for the four-year study period (2017 to 2021) on production performance were entered into MS-Excel sheet from the data record book of the National Goat Research Program, Bandipur and analyzed by using Mixed Model Least-square and Maximum Likelihood Computer Program PC-2 statistical package. The means were compared using Duncans' Multiple Range Test (DMRT). Results revealed that the effect of genetic group, parity, type of birth and sex were significant (p<0.05) with respect to growth at different stages along with genetic group and parity that were significant with major non-genetic factors affecting reproduction and litter traits. Better reproduction parameters were recorded for the Khari goat breed than Boer crossbred. Similarly, litter traits at both birth and weaning were found better in later parities with better performance in Khari. Males were born heavier and consistent throughout the study period up to eighteen months. Hence, based on the findings of this study, it can be concluded that Khari goat breed has high potential for its reproduction and litter traits with a massive scope of improvement through selection within the population. Likewise, it is also important to consider the growth of inferior Khari goats can also be genetically improved through upgrading up to 75% blood level using an appropriate breed, such as Boer.

Rada dyrektorów w prostej spółce akcyjnej – wybrane zagadnienia de lege lata
Authors: Kierznowski Wojciech 
Published: January 2024

Celem artykułu jest analiza stosunkowo nowej i nierozpowszechnionej alternatywy prowadzenia prostej spółki akcyjnej w formie monistycznej, cechującej się utworzeniem rady dyrektorów na rzecz braku zarządu i rady nadzorczej w spółce kapitałowej. Prosta spółka akcyjna była nieznaną do 2021 r. w Polsce formą prawną. Na rynku, gdzie wcześniej ustawodawca narzucał określony model prowadzenia spółki, niekoniecznie atrakcyjny dla start-upów, młodych przedsiębiorców lub inwestorów zagranicznych, rada dyrektorów, jej komitety, podział na dyrektorów wykonawczych i niewykonawczych, zdaje się atrakcyjną odmianą i swoistym ukłonem w stronę wyżej wymienionych podmiotów, być może zainteresowanych innymi rozwiązaniami. Obecnie niedostatecznie opisana jest sama rada dyrektorów, jak i jej efekty legislacyjne. Artykuł powstał w oparciu o większość dostępnych w kraju aktualnych źródeł na temat prostej spółki akcyjnej oraz wybrane zagraniczne publikacje, które odnoszą się do funkcjonowania tego modelu prowadzenia przedsiębiorstwa już na dobrze ugruntowanej scenie międzynarodowej. Przedstawiono zalety i korzyści, jakie wniosła nowelizacja wprowadzająca prostą spółkę akcyjną do Kodeksu spółek handlowych, ale również potencjalne wady i ryzyko w zakresie niezależności organów spółki. Opisany został model monistyczny i dualistyczny z podobieństwami, które zauważyć można m.in. w Stanach Zjednoczonych. Skomentowane zostały także niedoceniane komitety rady dyrektorów, sposób ich funkcjonowania i rozbieżność zdań w doktrynie przedmiotu.

The Perennial Outsider: Israel and Regional Order Change Post-2011
Authors: Schonmann Noa 
Published: January 2024

This chapter examines the role of Israel within the Middle East regional order and assesses the extent of change within or beyond that order in the post 2003 and post 2011 period. It argues that few scholars pay more than scant attention to Israel’s role within the regional order. Although some have analysed the shifting fortunes of Iran, Turkey, Egypt, Syria, Iraq and other states during this period, Israel’s role in the regional order continues to be neglected. The chapter posits that it is impossible to accurately assess the extent of change within the Middle East regional order as a result of events since 2003 without understanding Israel’s role within that order. Pointing to the increasing power of Iran and the decreasing salience of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict in Arab and Middle East politics, the chapter interprets the recent normalization or peace deals between some Arab states and Israel not as the collapse of the old regional order, or the emergence of a new order, but as an attempt by these states to counterbalance the growing power of Iran. The article surveys recent developments in relations between Israel and the UAE and Bahrain after the 2020 Abraham Accords and argues that these developments further support the argument about Israel’s previous and continuing role in the regional order.
Species Cleansing: The Rhetoric of Rat Control in the People’s Republic of Poland 1945–1956
Authors: Jarzębowska Gabriela 
Published: January 2024

This chapter examines the rhetoric regarding a broad scale rat extermination program in Poland which took place in 1945-1956. Although the intensification of rodent control campaigns at the turn of the 1950s can be explained by a sharp increase of rat population during the war period, the co-occurrence of the anti-rat propaganda with political purges, as well as strategic and rhetorical resemblances between these two operations, call for a closer attention. The chapter argues that the nature of this campaign was political and clearly linked to the consolidation of the Stalinist regime and demonstrates that the regime's combatant logic, centered around chasing enemies in order to consolidate the nation around the Party, soon began to incorporate non-human actors as well. As creatures posing considerable threat both to public health (vectors of disease) and national economy ("crafty thieves") rats can be perceived as embodiments of challenges to be confronted by the state devastated during the war. Propaganda materials from Stalinist times explicitly emphasize the presence of rat populations in neglected areas as a touchstone of backwardness and underdevelopment, making rats (or rather, their absence) a gauge of modernization processes. This chapter highlights how that the campaign had deeper historical and ideological foundations and ramifications. The connection between discursive mechanisms of modernity (including metaphors of purification) and the militarized narrative has already been identified in genocide studies and, most notably, in Holocaust studies and, as proposed here, a similar mechanism may be at play in debates over environmental management. The anti-rat program in Poland has deeper underpinnings that exceed strictly genocidal logic and should be considered as an inseparable component of modernity, specifically its combatant and utilitarian concepts of human relations with a non-human world.
Forged Network Narratives: Tolstoy’s The Forged Coupon and a Cycle of Adaptations in World Cinema
Authors: Dolgopolov Greg 
Published: January 2024

The Forged Coupon was Tolstoy’s last publication – the culmination of a lifetime’s work, a spiritual and conceptual legacy that would be passed forward and onward in an ongoing cycle of crisscrossing paths in much the same way as the relay structure of the novella. The Forged Coupon is remarkably cinematic, and it has been adapted into a multitude of films from different countries. The chapter examines the story’s major cinematic adaptations: not all these variations directly attribute Tolstoy’s tale, but the distinctive narrative structure of the Forged Coupon has given rise to the complex ‘network narratives’ identified by David Bordwell as becoming a common ‘dominant principle of offbeat storytelling’. The chapter surveys the legacy of Tolstoy’s final story and its phenomenal impact on international cinema narratives.

Published: January 2024

Perinatal damage to the central nervous system (CNS) is currently a pressing issue within the structure of neonatal pathology, leading to the development of various neurological complications and causing disability and death.The purpose. Identifying risk factors contributing to perinatal third-degree hypoxic-ischemic damage of the CNS in newborns and to examine the data of clinical, laboratory and instrumental studies.Results. In the course of this study, it was revealed that the leading syndromes at the birth of the majority of infants from the main group were the suppression syndrome and the syndrome of muscular hypotension. The highest proportion among extragenital pathologies was represented by infectious diseases of various etiologies, which the newborns’ mothers had suffered during pregnancy and childbirth. Most commonly reported pregnancy complications in mothers of the main group were anemia, fetal bladder abnormality and premature rupture of fetal membranes. Neurosonography revealed subependymal cysts, signs of cerebral ischemia and ventriculomegaly as most сommonly visualized abnormalities.Conclusions. It was established during the study that the primary risk factors for the development of hypoxic-ischemic damage to the CNS were complications during pregnancy and infectious diseases of various etiologies, which the mothers had suffered during pregnancy and childbirth.
C5L2 CRISPR KO enhances dental pulp stem cell-mediated dentinogenesis via TrkB under TNFα-induced inflammation
Authors: Irfan Muhammad , Marzban Hassan , Chung Seung 
Published: January 2024

Background and Objectives: Dental caries is one of the most common human pathological conditions resulting from the invasion of bacteria into the dentin. Current treatment options are limited. In many cases, endodontic therapy leads to permanent pulp tissue loss. Dentin–pulp complex regeneration involves dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) that differentiate into odontoblast-like cells under an inflammatory context. However, limited information is available on how DPSC differentiation processes are affected under inflammatory environments. We identified the crucial role of complement C5a and its receptor C5aR in the inflammation-induced odontoblastic DPSC differentiation.Methodology: Here, we further investigated the role of a second and controversial C5a receptor, C5L2, in this process and explored the underlying mechanism. Human DPSCs were examined during 7-, 10-, and 14-day odontogenic differentiation treated with TNFα, C5L2 CRISPR, and tyrosine receptor kinase B (TrkB) antagonist [cyclotraxin-B (CTX-B)].Results: Our data demonstrate that C5L2 CRISPR knockout (KO) enhances mineralization in TNFα-stimulated differentiating DPSCs. We further confirmed that C5L2 CRISPR KO significantly enhances dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP) and dentin matrix protein-1 (DMP-1) expression after 14-day odontoblastic DPSC differentiation, and treatment with CTX-B abolished the TNFα/C5L2 CRISPR KO-induced DSPP and DMP-1 increase, suggesting TrkB’s critical role in this process.Conclusion and Key applications: Our data suggest a regulatory role of C5L2 and TrkB in the TNFα-induced odontogenic DPSC differentiation. This study may provide a useful tool to understand the mechanisms of the role of inflammation in dentinogenesis that is required for successful DPSC engineering strategies.
Strength distribution of cemented waste rock backfill: a similarity simulation experiment
Authors: Gao Zhong , Huang Mingqing , Zhan Shulin , Tan Wei 
Published: January 2024

Backfill of cemented waste rock into underground mined-out areas is an effective way to eliminate solid wastes and potential hazards in mines. To understand the backfill strength distribution law throughout the stope, similarity simulation experiments were conducted for direct-irrigating cemented waste rock backfill, and OpenCV and neural network were employed to analyze particle segregation and the spatial distribution of backfill strength. Results show that distinct gravitational segregation leads to an uneven and heterogeneous distribution of natural graded waste rocks in a similar model. Backfill strength near sidewalls and bottom of the model surpasses that of other areas. In the vertical direction, the average backfill strength increases with depth, ranging from 1.15 MPa at the topmost layer to 1.91 MPa at the bottommost layer. Horizontally, the average backfill strength near model boundaries is consistently higher than that at the model center, irrespective of the layer depth and orientation. Neural network prediction on spatial backfill strength proves reliable, exhibiting an average relative error of 4.12%, compared to the traditional surface fitting with a 10.20% error. Verification tests affirm the capability of the neural network model to accurately predict the anisotropic and nonlinear distribution of backfill strength in a large stope.

ContextThe condition when a person’s gender identity does not match the sex assigned at birth is called gender incongruence (GI). Numbers of GI people seeking medical care increased tremendously over the last decade. Diabetes mellitus is a severe and lifelong disease. GI combined with diabetes may potentiate into a burdensome package for affected people.ObjectiveThe study aimed to characterize people with GI and diabetes from an extensive standardized registry, the Prospective Diabetes Follow-up Registry (DPV), and to identify potential metabolic and psychological burdens.MethodsWe compared demographic and clinical registry data of persons with type 1 or type 2 diabetes and GI to those without GI and used propensity score matching (1:4) with age, diabetes duration and treatment year as covariates.Results75 persons with GI, 49 with type 1 and 26 with type 2 diabetes were identified. HbA1c values were similar in matched persons with type 1 or 2 diabetes and GI compared to those without GI. Lipid profiles showed no difference, neither in type 1 nor in type 2 diabetes. Diastolic blood pressure was higher in the type 1 and GI group than in those without, whereas systolic blood pressure showed comparable results in all groups. Depression and anxiety were significantly higher in GI people (type 1 and 2). Non-suicidal self-injurious behaviour was more common in type 1 and GI, as was suicidality in type 2 with GI.ConclusionMental health issues are frequent in people with diabetes and GI and need to be specially addressed in this population.
