The Nature of stage Transformation as a Problem (L.S. Vygotsky's virtual dialogue with a modern theater psychologist)
Authors: Rozin Vadim Markovich 
Published: September 2022

The article raises the question of the nature of stage transformation. The psychological concept of N.V. Rozhdestvenskaya's explanation of reincarnation is analyzed, which distinguishes in this phenomenon as an ideal object of science: a) acceptance and emotional assimilation of motives that are dictated by the stage role, b) formation of an attitude to an imaginary situation that allows the artist to act and live in "given circumstances", c) restructuring and functioning of the personality already during the performance in these given circumstances. For comparison, the author analyzes I.I. Silantieva's art criticism concept, in which reincarnation is explained within the framework of the new humanitarian discipline "virtualistics", as well as the explanation of this phenomenon proposed by the author within the framework of the concept of "artistic reality". The similarity of the main differences in all three interpretations of reincarnation is fixed. Then the place is given to L.S. Vygotsky, who sharply objected to the analysis of scenic phenomena in logic that does not take into account their historical development and social nature. The author notes that although psychologists are well acquainted with Vygotsky's cultural-historical theory, they, nevertheless, realizing the view of psychology as an exact science, analyze the psyche, ignoring the cultural-historical approach. He undertakes to fill this gap in relation to reincarnation, showing that this concept was formed quite late, is not characteristic of the director's theater, but in theoretical terms is associated with a certain interpretation of the subject and personality.

Published: September 2022

This study aimed to the development of a device for improve on parboiling techniques for rice farmers in Cameroon. The design and construction were carried out using an empty 0.2 m³ metal oil drum for the parboiler, which is made up of the soaking (0.1585 m³) and steaming (0.0919 m³) chambers with capacities of 0.1585 m³ and 0.0919 m³, respectively. The two chambers were divided by a perforated floor of 0.26 m². The performance of the developed parboiling device were compared with those traditional and industrial methods of parboiling. A water uptake test was carried out and a panel subjective test was used to compare the sensory and cooking quality of the rice for the developed parboiler, traditional and industrial parboiling methods. Results from this study showed that the developed parboiler used 2.5 kg of firewood to parboil 50 kg of rice in 2 hours 15 minutes at a soaking and steaming temperatures of 90 and 95°C respectively. The traditional parboiler used 9.8 kg of wood to parboil 50 kg of rice in 3 hours at a steaming temperature of 105°C. Panels’ assessment showed that the quality of rice parboiled with the developed parboiler was good compared to the traditional and industrial methods. Overall results showed a significant improvement, less time of operation and a cheaper cost using the developed parboiler. This study concluded that there is no significant difference in the water uptake of the rice parboiled using the three parboilers at varying temperatures (P = .05). This developed parboiler is 5.4 times more efficient and 4 times greater in its construction cost than the traditional one. Local materials were valorized and the device was improved by the stove and the parboiler accessories which most parboiling devices do not have.

Published: September 2022

Tomato is one of the most important vegetables in the world. Ralstonia solanacearum causes a devastating bacterial wilt that is wide-spread throughout tropical environments that has been difficult to control with chemicals and African cultural practices in poor regions of the world. This study was initiated to determine the inhibitory effect of methanolic root extract of Senna didymobotrya and Moringa oleifera seed extracts on growth and development of R. solanacearum. The study was conducted both in the Laboratory and in the green house in Maseno from where S. didymobotrya and M. oleifera specimens used were collected from the University Botanic Garden, dried under shade for 30 days, before being ground into a fine powder. 1000 grams of the plant powder was later transferred into a conical flask and covered with 250mls of methanol. Filtration was done and the extracts concentrated. Ten diseased tomato plants showing bacterial wilt symptoms earlier collected from Maseno, Mariwa, Seme and Holo all within Kisumu county (Kenya) were cut to obtain plant sections (0.5–1cm) that were later plated onto Triphenyltetrazolium chloride media. Bacteriostatic activity of the extracts was determined by the disc diffusion method on Mueller Hinton agar. In vivo evaluations were conducted in a green house using tomato seedlings. Data collected was subjected to analysis of variance and means separated were compared using least significance difference (P≤ 0.05). Both plants extracts showed inhibitory activity against R. solanacearum pathogen (M. Oleifera; 8.5 and S. didymobotrya 9.2). Based on the outcome of this study, S. didymobotrya is recommended as a potential botanical agent suitable for future trials and use in the control of R. solanacerum by tomato farmers in Maseno region Kisumu county.

Published: September 2022

This research-based paper explored the factors associated with the growth of filmmaking in Tanzania despite the collapse of the Tanzania Film Company in 1978. Its objectives were to establish current trends in the country, identify factors that motivate the filmmakers to produce films and examine the role culture has played in its growth. In order to get conclusive views on what transpired and motivated Tanzania’s filmmakers to successfully produce films, out of the one hundred and twenty filmmakers registered under Tanzania Film Federation (TAFF), it used one hundred and eight copies of questionnaire and interviewed twelve, making it a census. It was found that the film industry has been progressing well in terms of improved film quality, quantity and marketing trends. Three factors that motivated filmmakers were revealed as culture, audience support and use of Kiswahili, the national language. All these increased the market. The study recommends that the government should set up a regulatory framework governing the film industry, impose strict anti-piracy laws, and establish film schools. Noteworthy, the cultural values of traditional dances, stage plays and made it easy to switch into film making.

Published: September 2022

Aims: An investigation was conducted to examine the distribution of available plant nutrients and the relationships between soil properties and available nutrient status in soil profiles in the Western Hilly Tracts of the Cuttack District, Odisha.
Place and Duration of Study: The research area, i.e. the Narasinghpur block, is located in the western part of the Cuttack district in Odisha and is characterized by lateritic uplands and mountainous terrain. Three soil profiles were exposed i.e. upland, medium land and low land before the rainy season (February, 2020).
Methodology: For experiments, five layers demarcated at 20cm intervals up to a depth of 100cm were sampled, processed, and stored. Several parameters, including particle size, pH, EC, OC, and available Ca, Mg, S, Fe, Mn, Cu, and Zn were analysed and interpreted using standard protocols.
Results: Sand content decreased with pedon depth, whereas clay content showed the opposite trend. With increasing soil depth in all pedons, soil pH increased while EC and soil organic carbon content declined. The available Ca, Mg, and S in surface soils varied from 4.11 to 6.56 [cmol (p+)/kg], 2.15 to 3.54 [cmol (p+)/kg] and 9.85 to 12.06 mg kg-1, respectively. The corresponding subsurface ranges for these nutrients were 4.31 to 8.52 [cmol (p+)/kg], 2.41 to 4.52 [cmol (p+)/kg], and 6.95 to 11.41 mg kg-1, respectively. The available Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, and B range in surface soils were 127.85-278.81, 68.48-144.98, 0.64-0.9, 0.54-0.63 and 0.37-0.47 mg kg-1, respectively. The subsurface ranges for these nutrients were 102.32–234.46, 53.21–118.28, 0.28–0.89, 0.17–0.50, and 0.29–0.91 mg kg-1. The status of micronutrients in the present study region was as follows: Fe > Mn > Cu > Zn > B. With increasing soil depth, available Ca and Mg increased, but available S, Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn and B declined. Positive correlations between available Fe, Mn, Cu, and Zn with the soil organic carbon content of the soil and negative correlations with the soil pH were observed.
Conclusion: Plant nutrients in the research area varied with topography, although the differences between upland, medium land and lowland wasn't substantial. However, accelerated decomposition of soil organic matter and agricultural residues likely led to highermicronutrient concentrations at the soil's surface than subsurface.

Published: September 2022

Background: Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) is a major health problem worldwide and its diagnosis is still challenging. Thioredoxin (TRX) is a class of small redox proteins known to be present in all organisms. It plays a role in many important biological processes, including redox signaling.
Aims: The main aim of this study was to study the serum thioredoxin level for assessment of response after ablation therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma in Egyptian patients.
Patients and Methods: This prospective case study was carried out in Department of Tropical Medicine and Infectious Diseases, Tanta University Hospital. The duration of study was from April 2019 till April 2020.
Results: Significant differences were found between the four groups regarding TRX as group B and C showed significant elevation in TRX level compared to group A & D. TRX was significantly decreased after 6 months compared to 3 months and preoperative. TRX at cutoff 100 ng/ml can differentiate between early HCC and liver cirrhosis with the sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV was 95%, 85%, 86% and 94% respectively. There were positive significant correlations between TRX and focal lesion size. There were also positive significant correlations between TRX and aspartate transaminase (AST), Total bilirubin, direct bilirubin and international normalization ratio (INR). In group C after therapeutic intervention, there was a significant decrease in TRX level among patients showing complete response compared to those with partial response or progressive course.
Conclusions: TRX could serve as a potential diagnostic biomarker for HCC. TRX could be used as a predictive marker of therapeutic ablation outcome in hepatocellular carcinoma patients.

Published: September 2022

Background: In December 2019, the COVID-19 pandemic began in Wuhan and quickly spread in China and other countries in the world. The SARS-CoV-2 virus reached Bangladesh in March 2020 and the index case of the first cluster of COVID-19 was reported on 13 March, 2020, in Madaripur District.
Methods: A team from the Institute of Epidemiology, Disease Control and Research (IEDCR), of Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Bangladesh investigated the cluster, established active syndromic surveillance for respiratory diseases, and implemented control activities.
Results: The index case traveled from Italy to Bangladesh and developed respiratory symptoms and sought medical treatment in Dhaka. He was diagnosed with COVID-19 and transferred and isolated in a hospital on the day of diagnosis. We followed up his contacts as soon as we got their names and contact information. We quarantined 34 among 139 contacts, rest of them were missed contacts. The attack rate among the index cases’ contacts was 18% (6/34). Eight cases in Madaripur District with COVID-19 were epidemiologically linked to the index case. The most common symptoms were fever (100%) and cough (86%). One case was asymptomatic. The Bangladesh influenza pandemic containment plan was modified for COVID-19 mitigation which included establishing a containment zone, mobilizing the local administrative authorities, and obtaining support from local community, religious and political leaders. Active case search in the containment zone identified new cases. No new cases were linked with the nine COVID-19 cases.
Conclusion: Active surveillance by health authority, prompt isolation of cases, quarantine of contacts and establishing a containment zone to focus mitigation efforts supported the prevention efforts for further transmission of the virus from this first COVID-19 cluster in Bangladesh.

Published: September 2022

Background: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Scans are better than high-resolution computed tomography (CT) scans. They are frequently used to discover tumors, infections and chronic diseases that affect the structures in and around the orbits. This study's aim was to evaluate the contribution of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurements to MRI in the assessment of non-traumatic orbital lesions.
Methods: This prospective research involved 30 cases with clinical and radiological non-traumatic orbital lesions. All patients underwent clinical assessment, ocular examination, laboratory investigations, radiological assessment (Conventional MRI, DW-MRI)) and histopathological analysis.
Results: There was substantial agreement between the magnetic resonance and pathologic diagnosis, k=0.722, p<0.001. The cut-off value of ADC for orbital lesions was ≤ 1.0 x 10-3 to be considered malignant lesions. Diffusion-weighted MRI and ADC had a sensitivity of 87.5 %, specificity 100%, and positive predictive value of 100 %, and a negative predictive value of 94.92 % to distinguish among benign and malignant orbital lesions.
Conclusions: MRI alone can detect orbital lesions, but they couldn't distinguish among benign and malignant lesions. The ADC value is non-invasive imaging technique that may be utilized to characterize orbital lesions and distinguish among benign and malignant ones.

Published: September 2022

Background: Early percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the method of choice for myocardial infarction with ST-elevation, and a shorter interval between event and hospital arrival can result in lower mortality rates. The aim of the study was to compare the efficacy of loading dose atorvastatin defined as 80 milligrams versus loading dose rosuvastatin defined as 40 milligrams for the prevention of contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) in ST elevation myocardial infarction patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
Methods: This prospective randomized study was carried out on 150 patients with clinical features of ST elevation myocardial infarction who randomly assigned to receive either atorvastatin (80 mg) or rosuvastatin (40 mg) before undergoing the primary PCI and diagnosed according to the 2018 European society of cardiology guidelines. Patients were divided into two equal groups: Atorvastatin group: experienced PCI accepting 80 mg Atorvastatin and Rosuvastatin group: experienced PCI getting high portion (40 mg) of Rosuvastatin.
Results: CIN was insignificantly different between atorvastatin and Rosuvastatin groups. Procedural duration, contrast volume, hydration volume and number of vessels were insignificantly different between atorvastatin and rosuvastatin group. Culprit vessel was significantly different between atorvastatin and rosuvastatin group (P value= 0.0003). Number of stents was significantly different between atorvastatin and rosuvastatin group (P value= 0.013).
Conclusions: The CIN was insignificantly different between the atorvastatin and rosuvastatin groups. Thus, the antioxidant properties of both statins could protect against the CIN.
