Приведены результаты изучения распространения и развития болезней, вредителей, сорных растений в условиях возделывания горчицы сизой (сарептской) по традиционной, минимальной и нулевой технологиям на южных карбонатных черноземах степной зоны Северного Казахстана. Показано, что при возделывании горчицы сизой важное значение имеет защита растений с использованием препарата для предпосевной обработки семян инсектофунгицидного действия, гербицидов против двудольных и злаковых сорных растений, фунгицида и инсектицида. Выполнение комплекса защитных мероприятий в значительной степени сдерживает распространение и развитие семенной инфекции, ложной мучнистой росы, крестоцветных блошек, рапсового цветоеда, капустной моли, однолетних и многолетних злаковых и двудольных сорняков и способствует получению дополнительно 54-58% урожая семян от уровня контроля (без обработки). Рассмотрены значение биологического препарата Seedspor W на основе микроорганизмов (Glomus ssp., триходерма аспереллум, сенная палочка, Bacillus megaterium) для обеззараживания семян горчицы, листовых и корневых подкормок препаратом Smart Start P и их значение для урожайности горчицы. Наибольший рост урожайности семян обеспечили в условиях минимальной технологии возделывания, где были получены наибольшие показатели от 6,8 ц/га до 8,2 ц/га.

Published: July 2023

The principles of water management were developed based on the analysis of the water management situation in Balkash – Alakol water district.
The analysis of modern degradation of ecological systems shows that this process is a direct result of timely forecast assessments and foresight of possible consequences of decisions taken at the stage of developing schemes for integrated use and protection of water resources for separate river basins of Kazakhstan.
In water-scarce river basins, the further development of water management and, accordingly, the development of economic sectors require matching the available water resources and demand for them. Thus, ideally, it is necessary to coordinate the possibility of taking water from the environment of a certain amount of natural, including water resources, with the self-recovering ability of the environment.
Due to anthropogenic activity and a sharp increase in water consumption in the upper reaches of Ile River, tense water management and ecological situation has already developed in the Balkash-Alakolskiy water basin, in which the unique Balkash lake can share the same fate as Aral Sea. The planned medium and long-term measures for development of irrigated agriculture in the territories of Zhetysu and Almaty regions result in additional excessive burden on natural environment in the region. Possible comprehensive measures are proposed to solve the strategic task of water (socio-ecological and economically optimal) management in Balkash-Alakol water basin, taking into account the preservation of Balkash Lake.

Authors: Knyazkov V. B. , Prazdnikov E. N. , Daikhes N. A. 
Published: July 2023

Purpose: to study anatomical and physiological features of the soft palate in patients with rhonchopathy and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome so as to minimize damage to tissue structures during laser uvulopalatoplasty.Material and methods. Five hundred twenty-three patients with rhonchopathy and OSA syndrome were examined using the index technique for determining neck circumference-height ratio (NHR), pharyngoscopy and endoscopy of the oral and pharyngeal cavities.Results. Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is more often met in patients having rhonchopathy and the brachymorphic and mesomorphic type of their neck. The researchers have found a clear dependence between the increase in the number of patients having rhonchopathy and moderate and severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and the increase of soft palate hypertrophy combined with ptosis. A cone-shaped depression on the anterior surface of the soft palate was noted in 80-90 % of patients with normal weight (body mass index < 25); in 40–60 % of patients with grade I obesity (body mass index – 30–34.9); in 10–15 % of patients with grade II obesity (body mass index – 35–39,9); in patients with grade IIIobesity (body mass index > 40) there were no any depression in the soft palate. Patients with uncomplicated snoring have a thick area in the forma pillow at the back of their soft palate sized 1 × 0.5 × 0.5 cm, while in patients with severe OSA syndrome this «pillow» is up to 2 × 1.5 × 1 cm.Conclusion. The effectiveness of laser uvulopalatoplasty depends not only on the adequate choice of main parameters for laser irradiation, but also on the careful consideration of anatomical and functional features of the soft palate in each operated patient with rhonchopathy and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.

Published: July 2023

Abstract
We build a field-level emulator for cosmic structure formation that is accurate in the nonlinear regime. Our emulator consists of two convolutional neural networks trained to output the nonlinear displacements and velocities of N-body simulation particles based on their linear inputs. Cosmology dependence is encoded in the form of style parameters at each layer of the neural network, enabling the emulator to effectively interpolate the outcomes of structure formation between different flat Lambda cold dark matter cosmologies over a wide range of background matter densities. The neural network architecture makes the model differentiable by construction, providing a powerful tool for fast field-level inference. We test the accuracy of our method by considering several summary statistics, including the density power spectrum with and without redshift space distortions, the displacement power spectrum, the momentum power spectrum, the density bispectrum, halo abundances, and halo profiles with and without redshift space distortions. We compare these statistics from our emulator with the full N-body results, the COmoving Lagrangian Acceleration (COLA) method, and a fiducial neural network with no cosmological dependence. We find that our emulator gives accurate results down to scales of k ∼ 1 Mpc−1
h, representing a considerable improvement over both COLA and the fiducial neural network. We also demonstrate that our emulator generalizes well to initial conditions containing primordial non-Gaussianity without the need for any additional style parameters or retraining.
Sgr A* Spin and Mass Estimates through the Detection of an Extremely Large Mass-ratio Inspiral
Authors: Vázquez-Aceves Verónica , Lin Yiren , Torres-Orjuela Alejandro 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Estimating the spin of Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*) is one of the current challenges we face in understanding the center of our Galaxy. In the present work, we show that detecting the gravitational waves (GWs) emitted by a brown dwarf inspiraling around Sgr A* will allow us to measure the mass and the spin of Sgr A* with unprecedented accuracy. Such systems are known as extremely large mass-ratio inspirals (XMRIs) and are expected to be abundant and loud sources in our Galactic center. We consider XMRIs with a fixed orbital inclination and different spins of Sgr A* (s) between 0.1 and 0.9. For both cases, we obtain the number of circular and eccentric XMRIs expected to be detected by space-borne GW detectors like LISA and TianQin. We find that if the orbit is eccentric, then we expect to always have several XMRIs in band while for almost circular XMRIs, we only expect to have one source in band if Sgr A* is highly spinning. We later perform a Fisher matrix analysis to show that by detecting a single XMRI the mass of Sgr A* can be determined with an accuracy of the order 10−2
M
⊙, while the spin can be measured with an accuracy between 10−7 and 10−4 depending on the orbital parameters of the XMRI.

Abstract
Faraday rotation measures (RMs) have been used for many studies of cosmic
magnetism, and in most cases having more RMs is beneficial for those studies.
This has lead to the development of RM surveys that have produced large
catalogs, as well as meta-catalogs collecting RMs from many different
publications. However, it has been difficult to take full advantage of all of
these RMs, as the individual catalogs have been published in many different
places, and in many different formats. In addition, the polarization spectra
used to determine these RMs are rarely published, limiting the ability to
reanalyze data as new methods or additional observations become available. We
propose a standard convention for RM catalogs, RMTable2023, and a standard for
source-integrated polarized spectra of radio sources, PolSpectra2023. These
standards are intended to maximize the value and utility of these data for
researchers and to make them easier to access. To demonstrate the use of the
RMTable2023 standard, we have produced a consolidated catalog of 55,819 RMs
collected from 42 published catalogs.
Un manuel de géographie liturgique dans la salle d’apparition du temple d’Hathor à Dendaraدليل الجغرافيا الشَعَائِريَّة في قاعة التَجَلِّي بمعبد حتحور في دندرة
Authors: Medini Lorenzo 
Published: July 2023

Dans une étude sur un groupe de scènes d’offrandes de la cour du temple d’Edfou, Philippe Derchain a mis en évidence les relations qui existent entre ces scènes, connues dans la littérature égyptologique sous le nom de « manuel de géographie liturgique ». Chaque tableau fait référence à une province de l’Égypte qui est représentée à travers un rite en relation avec sa divinité principale. L’ensemble du territoire égyptien est donc matérialisé par différentes actions rituelles. Trois autres ensembles de scènes présentant une structure similaire sont connus : les tableaux de l’hypostyle du pronaos du temple d’Edfou, les scènes sur l’extérieur du mur d’enceinte du même temple et les tableaux sur l’extérieur du naos de Dendara. Cet article s’intéresse à un autre groupe de scènes du même type, également situé dans le temple de Dendara, qui n’a pas encore été identifié en tant que manuel de géographie liturgique. Les troisième et quatrième registres de la moitié orientale de la salle de l’apparition présentent des rites liés aux dix premières provinces de Haute Égypte. La structure originale de cet ensemble sera analysée ainsi que son rôle dans le temple de Dendara et la façon dont il s’intègre dans la décoration de l’édifice.

ABSTRACT

Background:
Endometrial cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in women worldwide.

Aim and Objectives:
To study the expression of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and p53 immunohistochemistry (IHC) markers in subtyping endometrial carcinoma.

Materials and Methods:
A total of 100 cases of carcinoma endometrium submitted during January 2016 to October 2018 were included in our study. The ER, PR and p53 expressions were scored as per the adopted scoring system. Agreement between ER, PR and p53 IHC expression and the consensus HE diagnosis, FIGO grading and tumour staging were assessed using Chi square tests.

Results:
There was a statistical association between ER, PR and p53 status and tumour histologic type with a P value < 0.01. There was no statistical significance observed between ER and PR expressions and different FIGO grades. Statistical significance (P = 0.036) between p53 and different FIGO grades seen. No statistical significance was observed between ER, PR and p53 expressions and different tumour stages and tumour invasiveness. There was a statistical association between ER and PR status and lymph node metastasis. p53 did not show a statistical significance.

Conclusion:
Combination of ER, PR and p53 IHC markers can be used to distinguish type 1 and type 2 endometrial cancers. PR expression is more specific than ER in endometrioid carcinomas. p53 expression is more specific in serous carcinoma, however, p53 IHC alone cannot be used to distinguish different grades of endometrioid carcinomas as there is variability of staining in endometrioid carcinomas.

Published: July 2023

ABSTRACT

Background:
Mothers’ knowledge, attitude and practice toward childhood vaccination is the most adequate tool for prevention of infectious disease epidemics. A study on the knowledge, attitude and practice regarding immunization will help in our understanding of the variables that influence parental decision-making regarding immunization.

Aims and Objectives:
To assess the knowledge, attitude and practice regarding immunization in mothers of under 5 children in rural area in Bantwal Taluk in Mangalore.

Material and Methods:
This was a cross sectional questionnaire-based study conducted on 486 mothers of under 5 children in a rural area in Mangalore from November 2021 – January 2022. Data was collected using pretested semi structured questionnaires. Data was analysed using descriptive statistics, chi square test and outcomes expressed as frequency, proportions and percentages.

Results:
99.8% mothers were aware that vaccination prevents children from infectious disease and its complications. 23.2% of the mothers had the misconception that multiple doses of the same vaccine were not important for their child’s immunity. Vaccination campaigns to vaccinate their children were not considered important by 4.4% mothers. A significalnt proportion (26.3%) believed that multiple vaccinations at the same time would have a negative impact on their child. Most of the mothers were of the opinion that childhood vaccination was important and vaccination was more beneficial than harmful. 77% were of the opinion that the child could not get infected by the disease once vaccinated. 99.6% of the children were vaccinated at birth and 98.8% of the children were completely immunized. Optional vaccines were not given to majority of the children.

Conclusions:
Majority of the mothers were aware about the need for vaccination, had positive attitude towards the same and satisfactory immunization practices. Most of the children had completed immunization for their age, which in turn reflects on the adequate knowledge among the mothers.

Published: July 2023

ABSTRACT

Context:
The diagnosis of COVID-19 relies on the reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) obtained from the respiratory tract secretions. Due to various factors, there is a possibility of getting an inaccurate result. The false-negative result would be dangerous as the affected individual would not be subjected to quarantine and would go on to infect others. Hence, there is a need for an alternative in diagnosing COVID-19.

Aims:
To assess the correlation of computed tomography (CT) findings, laboratory parameters, and outcomes in COVID-19 suspect patients.

Design:
The study design involves retrospective study.

Materials and Methods:
RT-PCR-negative COVID suspect individuals were taken. Laboratory parameters such as serum ferritin, serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), serum D-dimer, and serum C-reactive protein (CRP) were considered. CT findings in these patients were determined. These parameters were statistically analyzed.

Statistical Analysis Used:
Frequency, percentage distribution, mean standard deviation, median, interquartile range, and Kruskal–Wallis test.

Results:
There was a statistically significant correlation between the serum LDH, serum ferritin, and serum CRP with the CT severity findings in RT-PCR-negative COVID suspect individuals. The predominant CT finding was ground-glass opacities.

Conclusions:
In conclusion, the laboratory parameters and CT findings can be used as an alternative in the diagnosis of COVID-19 in RT-PCR-negative individuals.

To assess the incidence of hypomagnesemia among patients with T2DM and compare them with healthy individuals.

Materials and Methods:
One hundred types 2 diabetic patients admitted to the general medicine outpatient Department at Government Erode Medical College Hospital, Perundurai, were recruited. Biochemical parameters and serum magnesium were assessed at admission and compared with the 100 healthy controls without T2DM.

Results:
Cases and controls had mean ages of 50.39 ± 9.76 and 50.01 ± 10.15 years, respectively. The age range of 41–50 had the highest percentage of patients (42%). The gender distribution was the same for both cases and controls, with 70% of men and 30% of women. Between cases and controls, the mean fasting blood sugar levels were 102.42 ± 11.16 mg/dl and 91.93 ± 4.32 mg/dl, respectively.

Conclusion:
Hypomagnesemia is a common problem in adults with T2DM, and we did find a significant association between Mg levels and T2DM in Erode district, Tamil Nadu.

Published: July 2023

ABSTRACT

Background:
Improving child survival still remains challenging for most of the developing countries like India. Leading causes of under-five mortality such as pneumonia and diarrhea can be prevented by ensuring good water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) practices. This study aimed to assess the WASH practices of caregivers of under-five children in a coastal area of Tamil Nadu in South India.

Materials and Methods:
This study was conducted as a community-based cross-sectional study among primary caregivers of under-five children in Thoothukudi district, Tamil Nadu. Caregivers accompanying under-five children in Threspuram and Mullakadu Primary Health Centers were interviewed. A semi-structured interview-based questionnaire was used to assess their WASH practices. Data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS).

Results:
The median WASH score was found to be 16 with an interquartile range of 6.5. Nearly 35% of the caregivers did not do anything to purify drinking water. Only less than three-fourths of the study population followed proper water storage practices. Only 7.2% of caregivers always washed their hands after defecation. The WASH score increased significantly with the education of the caregiver (P < 0.001).

Conclusion:
WASH practices were mostly poor for under-five children with male caregivers and caregivers with higher age and lower educational status.
Same-sex marriage in Japan and the role of courts in a dominant party system
Authors: Baldwin Guy 
Published: July 2023

Japan is increasingly isolated among advanced economies in not having made provision for same-sex marriage or same-sex civil unions at the national level. The main political obstacle to legal recognition of same-sex couples is the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), Japan’s dominant party, which has ruled the country with only two interruptions since 1955; many other parties support legalizing same-sex marriage, while the LDP does not. The literature suggests that the LDP secured its dominant position due to opposition fragmentation and ineffectiveness, and its own clientelist practices. Against this backdrop, cases are progressing through the Japanese judicial system seeking a finding that same-sex marriage is required under the 1947 Constitution. At the time of writing, the results of these cases have been mixed, with one case finding the current marriage law unconstitutional and two finding it constitutional.
This article contends that Japanese courts should find in favour of these claims and hold that same-sex marriage is constitutionally required. That is so not merely because it is the better position under existing legal doctrine relating to equality and non-discrimination under Article 14(1) of the Constitution, but also because the dominant party status of the LDP means that there is less reason in constitutional theory for courts to show deference to the legislature. In a dominant party system, there is less reason to expect that the government will pay sufficient heed to rights, while ‘counter-majoritarian’ difficulties with judicial review are less credible given the more ambiguous nature of the democratic mandate of the legislature. This undercuts a significant justification given for judicial deference.
