Transforming nutritional behaviors of basic school children through school-based participatory nutrition education program: A study protocol
Authors: Upreti Yadu Ram , Devkota Bhimsen 
Published: January 2023

Dietary habits build on in the formative years persist across the lifespan; therefore, developing healthy nutritional behaviors is crucial among school-going children. The school education can be a powerful influence in modifying the nutritional behaviors of children. Available evidence indicates that school-based nutrition education may promote improved dietary behaviours of school children if it is integrated with motivation, action, and a supportive environment. This study aims to design, implement and evaluate a school-based participatory nutrition education program (SBPNEP) to transform the nutritional behavior of students through participatory action research (PAR). This study uses a transformative mixed-method design as part of the PAR methodology. Five co-educational community schools are selected from Chitwan district of Nepal following the inclusion criteria of NORHED Rupantran Project under Tribhuvan University. Among the five schools, one is selected as the ‘action school’ where intervention sessions will be implemented. The remaining four schools serve as the ‘reference schools’ where effective intervention components of the action school will be replicated. Basic school students, their parents, basic school science and health education teachers, and school leaders are the co-researchers of this study. Both quantitative tools and qualitative methods will be used to generate the data. Quantitative data will be analyzed using inferential statistics (bivariate and multivariate), whilst the interpretive phenomenological analysis (IPA) method will be used for meaning making process of the qualitative data. Three components of the intervention also said to be PAR cycles: sensitization and motivation’, ‘nutrition pedagogy’ and ‘creating a supportive environment for sustainability’ will be implemented following an iterative process of planning, acting, observing, and reflecting of the PAR cycle. The effectiveness of the intervention activities will be evaluated under three phases: short-term, mid-term, and long-term.

Authors: Nepal G. M. , Chand P. , Poudel K. , Acharya S. R. 
Published: January 2023

Background More than 50% of patients with stroke have hypertension, a common modifiable risk factor for stroke. Studies reported that 90% of diagnosed hypertensive patients do not seek for treatment in Nepal and the reason for this remains unexplored. There is a possibility that lack of knowledge of stroke and its potential causes may be the reason.
Objective To assess the knowledge of stroke in a group of patients with hypertension in suburban Nepal.
Method Hypertensive patients visiting a tertiary care hospital in Nepal were approached and were included if they were 18 years or older. We used the Nepali version of ‘Awareness of Stroke, Risk Factors, and Treatment’ questionnaire to assess the knowledge of stroke. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the results.
Result A total of 273 patients were included with the mean age of 56 years. Almost half (48%) of the patients were uneducated. We found that only 24% of the patients identified brain as an organ affected by stroke, only 32% were aware about more than one warning signs of stroke, 64% reported that they were unaware of the treatment options for stroke and only 5% reported control of blood pressure as a part of stroke management. The commonest reported identifiable risk factor for hypertension was high blood pressure (44%).
Conclusion There are significant knowledge gaps regarding stroke in hypertensive patients. Although most patients recognized hypertension as a risk factor for stroke, they were unaware of treatment options. Increasing awareness of hypertension as a risk factor for stroke may help to prevent the stroke burden in Nepal.
Women empowerment in the story Vidha of Hindi literature
Authors: Garg Sushma 
Published: January 2023

The rise and fall in the status of women in the Indian society is probably not seen in any other society in the history of the world. Change is the eternal law of nature. With the change of time, the restrictions made for women are getting relaxed to a great extent. Along with the spread of education, women are trying to stand equal to men in every field, but no matter how much the family attitude has changed, still women in our society do not have the freedom to voluntarily, for themselves. You can choose the field of your choice. On the other hand, women are discriminated on the basis of gender in the society. But at present women are challenging every situation by being empowered themselves. Women empowerment has appeared in both positive and negative forms in the story genre of current Hindi literature.
Abstract in Hindi Language:
भारतीय समाज में नारी की स्थिति में जितना आरोह व अवरोह रहा है, सम्भवतः विश्व के इतिहास के किसी दूसरे समाज में यह स्थिति देखने को नहीं मिलेगी। परिवर्तन प्रकृति का शाश्वत नियम है। समय परिवर्तन के साथ-साथ महिलाओं के लिए बने प्रतिबन्धों में काफी हद तक शिथिलता आती जा रही है। शिक्षा के प्रसार के साथ-साथ महिलाएँ हर क्षेत्र में पुरूषों के समकक्ष आ खड़ी होने को उद्यत हैं, किंतु कितना ही पारिवारिक दृष्टिकोण परिवर्तित क्यों न हुआ हो, फिर भी हमारे समाज में महिलाओं को यह स्वतंत्रता नहीं है कि वे स्वेच्छा से, अपने लिए मनचाहे क्षेत्र का चुनाव कर सकें। दूसरी ओर समाज में महिला के साथ लिंग के आधार पर भेदभाव किया जाता है। परंतु वर्तमान में नारी स्वयं सशक्त होकर प्रत्येक परिस्थिति को चुनौती दे रही है। महिला सशक्तिकरण वर्तमान हिन्दी साहित्य की कहानी विधा में सकरात्मक व नकारात्मक दोनों रूपों में ही प्रकट हुआ है।
Keywords: महिला सशक्तिकरण, कहानी, कामकाजी, समाज, शोषण, आधुनिक सोच व पुरूष प्रधान समाज।

OBJECTIVE
The goal of this study was to investigate and identify the predictors associated with the incidence of hydrocephalus requiring shunt insertion in patients with encephalocele (EC), and to develop a scoring system to estimate the probability of hydrocephalus occurrence over time in these patients.

METHODS
A retrospective analysis was undertaken on data from patients treated for EC at a tertiary medical center between 2010 and 2021. Data including patient age at presentation, sex, sac location, sac size, contents, presence of ventriculomegaly/hydrocephalus, CSF leakage, and other associated intracranial/extracranial anomalies were among the variables evaluated for their predictive value. In addition, logistic regression analyses were performed to identify the independent predictors. A predictive scoring system was developed based on regression coefficients.

RESULTS
A total of 102 cases of EC were identified. The patient group consisted of 52 boys and 50 girls. Seventy-one patients (69.6%) had posterior ECs. Forty-three (42.2%) of the ECs contained neural tissue. Thirty-three patients presented with ventriculomegaly (32.4%), 30 of whom (90.9%) underwent ventriculoperitoneal shunt placement for hydrocephalus. Multivariate analysis revealed that the presence of other associated anomalies (OR 2.8, 95% CI 1.1–7.4, p = 0.027), larger EC sac size (OR 1.3, 95% CI 1.01–1.6, p = 0.042), and infections (OR 6.8, 95% CI 1.3–34.8, p = 0.034) were associated with ventriculomegaly. The logistic regression model consisted of 5 variables including the patients’ history of meningitis, their sex, sac location, sac size, and presence of other other associated anomalies; analysis resulted in the maximum accuracy of 86% for the prediction of hydrocephalus occurrence.

CONCLUSIONS
According to the findings, the presence of other associated anomalies, a larger sac, and infections are significant independent predictors of hydrocephalus. By considering these 3 predictors as well as sac location and the patient’s sex, it will be possible to predict hydrocephalus occurrence in patients with EC with significant accuracy.
PROPERTIES OF THE EQUATION OF HEAT CONDUCTION WITH DISSIPATION SOLUTIONS
Authors: Horodets'kyi V. , Martynyuk O. 
Published: January 2023

This paper investigates the properties of the solutions of the equation of heat conduction with dissipation, which is associated with a harmonic oscillator - the operator $-d^2/dx^2 + x^2$, $x\in \mathbb{R}$ (non-negative and self-adjoint in $L_2(\mathbb{R})$). An explicit form of the function is given, which is analogous to the fundamental solution of the Cauchy problem for the heat conduction equation. A formula that describes all infinitely differentiable (with respect to the variable $x$) solutions of such an equation was found, well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for the heat conduction equation with dissipation with the initial function, which is an element of the space of generalized functions $(S_{1/2}^{1/2})'$, is established. It is established that $(S_{1/2}^{1/2})'$ is the "maximum" space of initial data of the Cauchy problem, for which the solutions are infinite functions differentiable by spatial variable. The main means of research are formal Hermite series, which are identified with linear continuous functionals defined on $S_{1/2}^{1/2}$.

Among other sequences of integers Fibonacci numbers and Lucas numbers are cituated in the central place. In spite of great amount of literature dedicated to Fibonacci and Lucas sequences, there are still a lot of intriguing questions and open problems in this direction, see, for instance, the ''The Fibonacci Quarterly'' journal or materials of the Biannual International Conference organized by Fibonacci Association.Among other sequences of integers Fibonacci numbers and Lucas numbers are cituated in the central place. In spite of great amount of literature dedicated to Fibonacci and Lucas sequences, there are still a lot of intriguing questions and open problems in this direction, see, for instance, the ''The Fibonacci Quarterly'' journal or materials of the Biannual International Conference organized by Fibonacci Association.

We are motivated by the following simple observatoin. Consider the classical Fibonacci sequence defined by the rule

$$ F_{n+2}=F_{n+1}+F_n, n=0,1,2,\dots $$

with the initial values

$F_0=0$, $F_1=1$: $$ 0,1,1,2,3,5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55,\dots $$

If we consider a little bit another sequence

$$ G_{n+2}=G_{n+1}-G_n, n=0,1,2,\dots, $$

then for $G_0=0$, $G_1=1$ the sequence $(G_n)_{n=0}^\infty$ is of the form

$$ 0,1,1,0,-1,-1,0,1,1,0,-1,-1,\dots. $$

In other words, this sequence is periodic with period of the length $6$.

Therefore, the next questions follow naturally from the previous observation:(i) under which conditions on its coefficients the reccurent sequence is periodic? (ii) How long may be a period of the reccurent sequence and how it depends on coefficients? (iii) Does the length of a period depends on initial values of the reccurent sequence?

In the given paper we answer to these questions for the reccurent sequences of the second and the third order. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions on coefficients $u_i$ for the periodicity of a recurrent sequence defined by the rule $a_{n+k}=u_{k-1}a_{n+k-1}+\dots+u_0a_0$ for $n=0,1,\dots$ and $u_i\in\mathbb R$, $i=0,\dots,k-1$, in the case of $k=2,3$.
MODELING HARVESTING PROCESSES FOR POPULATIONS WITH NON-OVERLAPPING GENERATIONS
Authors: Matsenko V. 
Published: January 2023

Difference equations are used in order to model the dynamics of populations with non-overlapping generations, since the growth of such populations occurs only at discrete points in time.

In the simplest case such equations have the form $N_{t+1}= F(N_t)$, where $N_t >0$ is the population size at a moment of time $t$, and $F$ is a smooth function.

Among such equations the discrete logistic equation and Ricker's equation are most often used in practice.

In the given paper, these equations are considered width taking into account an effect of harvesting, that is, the equations of the form below are studied $N_{t+1}=r N_t (1- N_t) - c$ and $N_{t+1}= N_t \exp (r(1 - N_t / K )) - c$, where the parameters $r$, $K>0$, $c>0$ are harvesting intensity.

Positive equilibrium points and conditions for their stability for these equations were found. These kinds of states are often realized in nature.

For practice, periodic solutions are also important, especially with periods $T=2 (N_{t+2} = N_t)$ and $T=3 (N_{t+3} = N_t)$, since, with their existence, by Sharkovskii's theorem, one can do conclusions about the existence of periodic solutions of other periods.

For the discrete logistic equation in analytical form, the values that make up the periodic solution with period $T=2$ were found. We used numerical methods in order to find solutions with period $T=3$. For Ricker's model, the question of the existence of periodic solutions can be investigated by computer analysis only.

In the paper, a number of computer experiments were conducted in which periodic solutions were found and their stability was studied. For Ricker's model with harvesting, chaotic solutions were also found.

As we can see, the study of difference equations gives many unexpected results.

Визначено ключову особливість систематичної структури керування даними, яка реалізує загальні підходи до даних, забезпечуючи прозору, ефективну, внутрішню безпеку та захист конфіденційності для внутрішніх та зовнішніх операцій в мережі 6G. Розглянуто основні концепції та відповідні мережеві функції та послуги.
Розглянуто інтелектуальну систему керування інформаційним захистом даних. Зокрема, досліджено сценарії керування даними в мережах 6G при участі кількох користувачів, які можуть бути потенційними споживачами даних, тобто споживати інформаційні дані або знання, надані системою 6G, або можуть бути постачальниками даних системи 6G. При цьому, мережа 6G може мати власну структуру керування доступом до даних, але, з іншого боку, технологія 6G також може реалізувати структуру керування даними разом з іншими учасниками галузі на основі їх власних знань у предметній галузі.
Досліджено схему інтегрованої архітектури керування захистом даних на основі технології розподіленого реєстру (DLT) для інтелектуальної радіомережі 6G. При цьому, технологія DLT знаходиться в ядрі системи мобільного зв'язку наступного покоління за допомогою відкритої екосистеми та формує новий рівень керування, що забезпечує самодостатню схему ідентифікації, отже автентифікація може виконуватися безперешкодно у різних доменах. Рівень керування даними та доступу до даних (DM/DA) створений для керування мережними та даними користувача і підтримує обмін сегментованими даними при збереженні вбудованої конфіденційності в декількох доменах.
Досліджено властивості технології DLT для досягнення трьох основних принципів проектування відкритої багатосторонньої екосистеми, а саме відкритості, функціональної сумісності та благонадійності. Оскільки будь-яка спроба доступу до даних та інформації через сервіси DLT буде реєструватися в реєстрі, властивість перевірки має ключове значення для реалізації принципу відкритості. При цьому, функціональна сумісність гарантує перетворення мережі 6G на багатосторонню екосистему, що забезпечує спільне надання послуг. Використання смарт-контракту дозволяє зовнішнім учасникам отримувати доступ через API до спільно використовуваних даних з іншого домену відповідно до умов, визначених власником даних. Крім того, запущений смарт-контракт (API) виконуватиметься автоматично, що сприяє функціональній сумісності в інтелектуальних інфокомунікаційних мережах.

Authors: Fadhil Noor Mohammed , Hamdi Rana ali 
Published: January 2023

Background: Polycystic ovarian syndrome is the most common endocrine disease in females of childbearing time of life. Women with polycystic ovarian syndrome have a higher chance of developing complications such as dyslipidemia, hypertension, and obesity. Obesity is a state of extreme fat buildup which leads to the development of multiple complications involving non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, cardiovascular disease and type2 diabetes mellitus. Podocalyxin is an element of the endothelial cells plasma membranes that is widely spread, it is limited to the luminal membrane area and is irregularly located on the surface of endothelial cells lining blood vessels.
Objectives: To estimate serum Podocalyxin in polycystic ovarian syndrome women and compare its level with healthy controls. Also, to find the correlation between serum Podocalyxin and anthropometrics parameters which are (body mass index, waist circumference, waist to hip ratio).
Methods: This case control study included 124 women who were grouped into 2 groups: group 1 included 63 females diagnosed with PCOS (patients) and group 2 included 61 healthy women (controls). Serum podocalyxin was measured by Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technique and anthropometrics measures (“body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC) and waist to hip ratio WHR”) were done.
Results: The results of this study showed significantly high mean BMI(P=0.001), WC(P=0.002) and WHR(P=0.001) in patients as compared to healthy controls. The results also showed a significant increase in mean value of serum PODXL (P=0.001) in PCOS females when compared with healthy controls. In patients group, significant positive correlations were found between serum PODXL and BMI (r=0.395, p=0.001), waist circumference (WC) (r.=0.433, p.=0.001) and waist to hip ratio (WHR) (r.=0.427, p.=0.001 ).
Conclusion: PCOS women have greater body mass represented by BMI, WC and WHR which reflect the risk of multiple complications like hypertension, dyslipidemia and cardiovascular disease. Moreover, PCOS women have higher serum PODXL which is considered as a marker for the vasculature thus might be a potential marker for prediction of early atherosclerosis.

Authors: Hazler Ana 
Published: January 2023

AbstractThis paper presents the process of establishing a terminology management infrastructure in the Slovenian Armed Forces (SAF) and the Ministry of Defence with the aim of ensuring standardized defence and military terminology. The process, which began in 2018, leaned on the best practices of the NATO Standardization Office and Canada’s Ministry of Defence, both of which have well-established military terminology management and standardization systems in place. As the process was established by language professionals, the paper attempts to identify the overall opinion with regard to terminology at the Ministry and in the SAF by means of a survey.
