Authors: Manna Arup Ratan , Mallick Saptarshi , Mohakul J. P. 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACT
Mesoarchean mafic-ultramafic magmatic activities show a regular pattern in different cratons across the world and it starts with peridotitic members to pyroxenite to Geochemical Analog of Boninite (GAB) to Siliceous High Magnesium Series (SHMS) type. Magmatic activities with similar geochemical characteristic and same evolutionary trend i.e., from ultramafic to GAB to SHMS are observed in enclaves of BGC and sill of Darjing Group. Based on coherent geochemical character and intrusive field relation of these two mafic-ultramafic suites of rocks, it can be concluded that they are cogenetic and emplaced late to post first deformation of Iron Ore Supergroup orogeny with an Archean geochemical analog of modern island arc setting. Erstwhile these were classified as two different stratigraphic units. Geochemical data also indicates an enriched mantle source for this event. Besides, geochronological constraints specify its intrusion time (~2.9 Ga to ~3.0 Ga) that can be appraised with other similar events from Singhbhum Craton as well as from other cratons of different part of the world.
Blending Strategies of Coals from Diverse Origins for Efficient Coke Making
Authors: Kumari Priya , Singh Ashok K. 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACT
Blending of coals for coke making is a very important process for the steel industry globally. The importance of coal blend for coke making in India lies in its impact on the quality and efficiency of coke production. The coal blend composition affects crucial factors such as coke strength, reactivity, ash content, and gas generation during the coking process. This ensures optimal performance, cost-effectiveness, and environmental compliance in the steelmaking process and is critical for the sustainability of the steel industry in India. Globally, attempts have been made to prepare suitable blends for coke making and several models have been developed. This also depends on requirement of desired types of cokes and availability of domestic and imported coals for different countries. Presently, in most cases, the Indian coke and steel industry uses 80–85% imported coals and 15–20% domestic coals for blending. Here, six coals from different domestic local mines and three imported coals have been tried in different blend proportions, to show the feasible options to use domestic coals in higher proportions and use lesser proportions of imported coals.
In this study, two case studies are presented, demonstrating the blending of indigenous and imported coals in various proportions based on weighted average. Imported coals from Australia, New Zealand and domestic coals from domestic mines i.e. Dugda 1, Kathara, Kargali, Argada Sirka, Jamadoba and Bhujudih mines in Damodar Valley basin were used. The proximate analysis, petrographic studies and properties of these coal blends, including caking index, swelling index, fluidity, plasticity, CRI, CSR, M40 & M10 values have been discussed. The strategies of these blends depended on reactive macerals, inerts, coal rank, mineral matters and other critical parameters.
The findings of the paper indicate that, given the constraints of the Indian coke industry, the cokes produced using the blending strategy outlined in the study have achieved optimal values. On meticulous blending, high proportion of domestic inferior coals can be blended up to 38% to prepare suitable coke, while about 50% of imported coal can be blended with domestic coals. This suggests, through a carefully designed blend strategy, the Indian steel industry may address the challenges of coking coal scarcity and reduce reliance on costly coal imports.

Influence of pragmatism and scholasticism on contemporary education development
Authors: Puspitasari Eva 
Published: February 2025

The foundation of this study lies in the longstanding debate between practice-oriented, experiential educational approaches (pragmatism) and more traditional, theory-centered methods grounded in deductive logic (scholasticism). This research examines the influence of the philosophical streams of pragmatism and scholasticism on contemporary education. Adopting a qualitative approach, the study employs comparative literature analysis to evaluate the application of these philosophies within the modern educational framework. Findings reveal that pragmatism plays a pivotal role in shaping an educational system that is dynamic, adaptable, and responsive to contemporary societal needs, particularly by linking learning to real-life experiences. Conversely, scholasticism contributes significantly by preserving the value of education founded on deep theoretical comprehension and systematic logic. The synergy between these two philosophical approaches is posited to create a more balanced and holistic curriculum, blending practical and theoretical aspects essential for fostering student competencies in modern education. This research offers a new perspective on curriculum formulation by integrating the strengths of both approaches. AbstrakLatar belakang penelitian ini berakar dari perdebatan panjang antara pendekatan pendidikan yang berorientasi pada praktik dan pengalaman langsung (pragmatisme) dan pendekatan pendidikan yang lebih tradisional berbasis teori dan logika deduktif (scholatisisme). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh dua aliran filsafat pragmatisme dan scholatisisme terhadap pendidikan kontemporer. Pendekatan penelitian ini bersifat kualitatif, mengadopsi analisis literatur dengan metode komparatif guna mengevaluasi implementasi kedua aliran filsafat dalam konteks sistem pendidikan kontemporer. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penelitian ini menawarkan perspektif baru dalam perumusan kurikulum yang efektif dengan mengintegrasikan kekuatan dari kedua pendekatan. Pragmatisme berperan penting dalam membentuk sistem Pendidikan yang dinamis, fleksibel, dan relevan dengan kebutuhan masyarakat kontemporer, khususnya dalam menghubungkan pembelajaran dengan pengalaman sehari-hari. Di sisi lain, scholatisisme memberikan kontribusi besar dalam mempertahankan pentingnya Pendidikan yang berbasis pada pemahaman teori yang mendalam dan logika yang sistematis.

Published: February 2025

Background. Degenerative stenosis of the spinal canal is a condition observed mostly in the elderly. It significantly decreases their quality of life and physical activity. Surgical treatment of the patients is frequently associated with significant surgical and anesthesiologic risks especially during conventional open decompression. The problem of decreasing invasiveness of surgical interventions is important for these patients because in their case lighter postoperative injury and decreased recovery duration after surgery are crucial. Aim. To evaluate clinical outcomes in patients with central degenerative lumbosacral stenoses after percutaneous endoscopic decompression. Materials and methods. Comparison of clinical and radiological characteristics before surgery, on day 1 and month 6 after surgery was performed. Among clinical characteristics, pain syndrome in the leg / legs per the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) were evaluated. The evaluated radiological characteristic was the spinal canal cross-sectional area (CSA) in cm2 per the magnetic resonance imaging. Statistical analysis was performed using the SPSS Statistics v. 26.0 (IBM, USA) software. Results. Pain syndrome in the leg / legs (decreased VAS score) after surgery decreased significantly (р = 0.006). No significant difference between the VAS scores on day 1 and 6 months after the surgery was found (adjusted significance level padj = 1.000). Similarly, disability index changes were statistically significant after surgery (р = 0.005): ODI score decreased. Additionally, no statistically significant differences between ODI score on day 1 and 6 months after surgery were observed (padj = 1.000). Increase in CSA of the spinal canal was statistically significant (р = 0.001), no differences in this parameter on day 1 and 6 months after surgery were found. Conversion to microsurgical access was necessary in 4 (23.5 %) of 17 patients. No statistically significant differences in VAS, ODI scores and CSA changes at different time points were observed in patients who required conversion. Conclusion. Results of the study show significant improvement of the patients’ clinical status (per the VAS and ODI) and achievement of adequate radiological decompression (increased spinal canal CSA) which persisted for 6 months after percutaneous endoscopic interventions.
The Ideology of Challenging a Marriage Contract
Authors: Akhmedov A. Ya. 
Published: February 2025

The paper investigated the possibility of applying provisions of a simple partnership contract to the property and personal relations of spouses. The author joins supporters of the contractual nature of marriage, while realizing the weaknesses of this approach and that relationships between the spouses is not limited to an amicable agreement. Nevertheless, on the basis of a comparative legal analysis of the regulation of relations between the parties to a simple partnership agreement and the relations of spouses, it is possible to demonstrate the fundamental similarity of the legislator’s approaches to their normative regulation. Spouses, just like the parties to a partnership agreement, have a common goal, combine deposits, bear common expenses, share profits, and become co-owners of property acquired in marriage. The relationship between the spouses is of a trusting nature, each of the spouses has the right to dispose of common property, to establish legal consequences for the other spouse. In connection with the indicated similarity of the normative regulation of relations under the contract of a simple partnership and relations between spouses, the author endeavored to justify the invalidity and termination of the marriage contract, as well as admissibility of the spouses concluding a gift agreement on the basis of the provisions regulating the contract of a simple partnership. Thus, the contestability of a marriage contract containing conditions that put one of the spouses in an extremely unfavorable position is explained not only by the principles of justice and equality of spouses, but also by the prohibition of «leonine partnerships.» The nuptial agreement, acting as an agreement changing the dispositive regulation of the matrimonial agreement of the spouses, terminates when the spouses terminate the agreement and does not apply to newly concluded marriages between the same persons.

Authors: Chulakova O. Y. 
Published: February 2025

This article examines the legal status of a technology broker in the context of international and foreign practice. In the context of increasing technological progress and the increasing role of innovation for the development of the economy of each country, the function of a technology broker as a figure acting in the interests of both technology developers and their users is becoming increasingly important and relevant. At the same time, the legal status of these subjects of legal relations is currently uncertain. A comparative analysis of foreign practice shows differences in approaches to regulating the activities of technology brokers in different countries. Important aspects are the observance of intellectual rights, protection of intellectual property and confidentiality, as well as the need to adapt legal regulation to different legal systems, taking into account the need to integrate a technology broker into legal relations arising during technology transfer.At the same time, approaches to regulating the activities of technology brokers depend on the specifics of legislation aimed at supporting innovation and protecting intellectual property. For the successful functioning of legislation in the field of technology brokerage, consistent work is required to create a unified legal environment that will take into account the interests of all participants in this market and provide conditions for their activities.

Published: February 2025

La lepra es un problema importante de salud mundial que, aunque es extremadamente rara en Europa, está sufriendo un incremento en su diagnóstico de hasta el 10% de los casos totales en el mundo y duplicados en España con 10 nuevos casos por año. Clínicamente produce lesiones hipopigmentadas o rojizas que típicamente presentan una pérdida de sensibilidad. Los hallazgos histopatológicos pueden ser variables y se han descrito las variantes lepromatosa, borderline y tuberculoide. No siempre la biopsia mostrará una imagen histopatológica definitiva o compatible por lo que la sospecha clínica diagnóstica es, en definitivas, la mejor herramienta. Para su confirmación se puede realizar la determinación de DNA de Mycobacterium leprae sobre material parafinado o muestras conservadas en alcohol.

Published: February 2025

Introducción: la enfermedad renal crónica (ERC) afecta aproximadamente al 10 % de la población mundial, siendo más frecuente entre pacientes diabéticos e hipertensos. Para quienes padecen esta condición, el trasplante renal representa una opción terapéutica que mejora significativamente su calidad de vida y supervivencia. No obstante, la adherencia a la medicación inmunosupresora es esencial para prevenir el rechazo del injerto y minimizar las complicaciones asociadas al trasplante.
Objetivo: fue evaluar la relación entre la adherencia a la medicación inmunosupresora y la calidad de vida en pacientes trasplantados renales.
Metodología: se llevó a cabo un estudio observacional transversal en el que participaron 80 pacientes adultos con trasplante renal funcionante. La adherencia a la medicación se evaluó utilizando el cuestionario ITAS y el cuestionario de la Universidad de Mansuora, mientras que la calidad de vida fue medida mediante el cuestionario SF-36. Se emplearon análisis de varianza y pruebas de chi-cuadrado para comparar las variables relacionadas con adherencia y calidad de vida.
Resultados: el 65 % de los pacientes fueron clasificados como adherentes a la medicación inmunosupresora. No se identificaron diferencias significativas en las características sociodemográficas entre los pacientes adherentes y no adherentes. Sin embargo, los pacientes adherentes obtuvieron mejores puntuaciones en las dimensiones de dolor corporal y cambios en la salud del SF-36, con diferencias estadísticamente significativas (p<0,05).
Conclusiones: la adherencia a la medicación inmunosupresora se asocia con una mejor calidad de vida en pacientes trasplantados renales. Las dimensiones de dolor corporal y cambios en la salud fueron particularmente más favorables en los pacientes adherentes, lo que subraya la importancia de promover estrategias para mejorar la adherencia terapéutica en esta población.
