Published: February 2022

Fermented cereal-based drinks as “kounou” are among the most popular indigenous beverages in Northern Cameroon. Because they are made in a primitive way, they are ready to be served while still actively fermenting. Therefore, some physicochemical properties of “kounou” were tested in the current study during 4 days of storage at room and refrigerated temperatures. Samples of “kondourkou” a sub type of “kounou” were purchased from local producers located in the Far North region of Cameroon. During storage at 28 ± 2°C and 4 ± 1°C, total sugars, pH, total acidity, alcohol content, total soluble solids, dry matter, total dissolved solids, and conductivity of samples were measured in triplicate using standards procedures. The results showed that pH decreased from 3.34 to 3.16, and 3.65 to 3.4 after storage at room and refrigerated temperatures, respectively. The decrease in total sugar (30.3%-12.1%) and soluble solids (7.26-4.89°Brix), as well as increase in titratable acidity (0.26%-0.36%) were significant for samples stored at ambient temperature. While no significant changes in all these parameters were revealed for samples stored at cold conditions (54.8%-37.9%; 8.79-8.13°Brix and 0.18-0.25%, respectively). Dry matter and total dissolved solids were lower in samples stored at room temperature (from 10.3-11.2% and 841.9-1002 mg/L, respectively) than those kept under refrigeration (from 12.15 to 12.5% and 1061.2-1231.7 mg/L, respectively). Alcohol content and conductivity were respectively in the range of 3.5-2.35% and 1692.4-2012.5 mg/L for samples stored at room temperature, and 3.18-3.37% and 1692.4-2205 mg/L for those kept under refrigeration. Principal component analysis revealed that samples stored under refrigeration were structured in two sub-cluster, the first formed by those stored for 1 and 2 days and the second including those kept for 3 and 4 days. While samples left at room temperature were separated into three sub groups, those stored for a day, 2 and 3 days, and 4 days. Finally, it would be appropriate to consume refrigerated “kounou” as well as commercialize and/or store it under refrigeration.
Contribution of Corporate Governance on Performance of Listed Companies in Kenya
Authors: Isaac R. M. 
Published: February 2022

Leadership is a process of social influence in which one person can enlist the aid and support of others in the accomplishment of a common task. Corporate governance has dominated leadership policy agenda in developed market economies for more than a decade and African continent is gradually adopting it on their policy agenda on leadership and governance of their organisations. The Nairobi Securities Exchange (formerly Nairobi Stock Exchange) (NSE) is the principal stock exchange of Kenya. This study was to establish the contribution of Corporate Governance on leadership performance of Listed Companies in Kenya. The target population consisted of the 62 listed companies that had been listed at the NSE in 2015. The study used primary data which was collected using questionnaires. Data was analysed and presented using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to present the results of this study. The study found that good corporate governance is a major ingredient to leadership performance and there must be deliberate effort by company leadership to create systems that ensure there is effective corporate governance. The study recommends that board of directors should actively promote long term performance, take control of the company business and significantly promote growth in financial performance, market performance, shareholder return, share value and customer satisfaction. The study encourages company leaders to draw strong strategies to counter any political interferences, ethnicity and nepotism which are the major cancerous effect to leadership styles and structures, leadership composition, leadership independency, stakeholders’ ownership and ownership concentration which are significant factors to performance.
Interview as Archive: Moving in Disciplinary Space from Cultural Studies to Cultural Science. An Interview with John Hartley AM
Authors: Owen Samantha 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
On 19 July 2021 John and I met at Curtin University on the unceded lands of the Noongar people to discuss his passage from cultural studies to cultural science. For a short time I was the caretaker Editor-in-Chief and so it seemed appropriate that John and I have the conversation to mark the transition of the journal to a new home and team following the long editorship by John while Cultural Science resided in the Centre for Culture and Technology (CCAT) Curtin University. Appropriately, our conversation was bookended by morning coffee and then lunch with Lucy Montgomery, the Cultural Science Commissioning Editor, leader of the Innovation in Knowledge Communication research program at CCAT and co-lead of the Curtin Open Knowledge Initiative.
I framed the discussion around John’s career so far in an attempt to capture his contributions to the fields of cultural studies, creative industries, cultural science and the Humanities generally, and also to identify the complex of academics, individuals and institutions that he worked with and built up throughout his career inside the academy. John publishes prolifically, and the volume of his publications is extraordinary, as is his impact. This is clear in the way John is intellectually generous and innovative: he follows and creates trends and in the shaping of disciplines he remains focused on how to create and sustain communities of practice. What came out of the interview is that John’s academic core, his driving force through his life of work remains unchanged: contributions to culture – high or low – should be taken seriously, whether that be banal everyday television, comics, Paul Smith, Welsh nationalism or the climate activism of Greta Thunberg.

Sergei Eisenstein in the Proletkult
Authors: Biggart John , Bulgakowa Oksana 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This article examines some of the theoretical issues that exercised Sergei Eisenstein during the years 1920–1924 when he worked in the Russian Proletarian Cultural-Educational Organization (Proletkult), of which Aleksandr Bogdanov was one of the founders. We ask how far Eisenstein was influenced by Marxism in general and by the ideas of Bogdanov in particular, and explain his exit from the Proletkult in terms of the unacceptability of his theory and practice of theatre and film to the Chairman of the Proletkult, Valeriyan Pletnëv. During these years the Agitprop Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party, at Lenin’s behest, was taking steps to reduce the scope of activities of the Proletkult, discredit Bogdanov as a thinker, and exclude him from politics.
Aleksandr Bogdanov’s Podbor and Proletkult: An Adaptive Systems Perspective
Authors: Dudley Peter 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
If one accepts (following Poustilnik 1995 and 1998) that Aleksandr Bogdanov’s intention in using the term podbor over otbor aimed at defining the process by which the ‘system in its environment’ comes into and continues in existence, one is also constrained to accept that such systems are active agents in the definition of self. Systems that create and maintain themselves in this way actively ‘assemble’ or construct themselves in reference to the nature of their relationship with their environments, rather than passively surviving in relation to environmental conditions. By extending this interpretation (of the choice of podbor over otbor) to the proletariat, as an individually and collectively adaptive system, it becomes possible to visualize the Proletkult as a conscious project to create an environment where it (the proletariat) could construct and adapt itself as a politically active, relevant and dominant class, thereby placing creative and cultural workers in the forefront of radical social change.
Towards a Tektology of Tektology
Authors: Tompsett Fabian 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This essay explores the diffractive relationship between Aleksandr Bogdanov and Otto Neurath. Using a diffractive methodology derived from Karen Barad, these two thinkers are brought into relationship through their impact upon the German Figurative Constructivists, a political-art movement which emerged from the Council Communist current grouped around the Berlin review Die Aktion. This yields a contextualization of both Bogdanov and Neurath within the political environment that arose within Social Democracy in the first third of the twentieth century. This interpretation provides a basis for how tektological approaches can be implemented in the age of digitized information.
Prevalence of Bullying in Grassroots Soccer in Spain: Victims, Bullies, and Bystanders

Published: February 2022

Abstract
Bullying is a social problem that has been studied most in schools but affects other social contexts. However, there is a general lack of studies on bullying in sports. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of bullying among youth soccer players. Participants were 1,980 soccer players (88.2% boys) aged 8 to 13 years (Mage = 10.5, SD = 1.68) from 25 clubs in Catalonia, Spain. An ad hoc questionnaire was administered to analyze the prevalence and characteristics of bullying from the perspective of victims, bullies, and bystanders. The overall bullying victimization rate was 8.9%, with higher rates observed in the younger categories (p < .001); 5.2% of victims experienced bullying in both their soccer club and at school. The bullying and bystander rates were 14.8% and 34.7%, respectively, with significant differences between boys and girls (15.5% of boys and 9% of girls were bullies [p < .05], while 36.4% of boys and 21.9% of girls were bystanders [p < .001]). Verbal bullying was the main type of bullying reported. The locker room and pitch were the most common locations, and victims were more likely to deal with bullying on their own than to ask for help. Bullying is present in grassroots soccer, and anti-bullying programs are needed to instill ethical and moral values in athletes and equip coaches with the necessary skills to prevent, detect, and address bullying situations.

Published: February 2022

Spontaneous pneumomediastinum, pneumothorax, pneumoperitoneum, and soft tissue emphysema have been recently described in several sources as possible complications in patients with severe COVID-19 and lung damage. This clinical case is dedicated to demonstrarte the development of these lesions in 3 male patients with comorbid conditions. The putative pathophysiological mechanism of these complications is air leakage due to extensive diffuse alveolar damage followed by rupture of the alveoli. All presented patients had a favorable outcome of the disease without lethal cases, their laboratory data and clinical dynamics were described.It should be noted that such conditions are not rare complications of COVID-19, and are observed mainly in male patients with severe form of the disease and the presence of comorbid conditions. Such complications are associated with long hospitalization and a severe prognosis. In some cases, with a mild course of the disease and positive dynamics in a decrease of the percentage of pulmonary lesions, the outcome is favorable, not requiring additional invasive interventions.

Non-invasive study of genetic anomalies of human embryos
Authors: Панкрушина Алла Николаевна , Калиничева Ирина Антоновна 
Published: February 2022

Для выявления генетических патологий плода женщин на I триместре беременности проанализированы 456 результатов скрининга биохимических и ультразвуковых маркеров анеуплоидии, проведённого на базе клиники ООО «Медикал Геномикс» (г. Тверь). Самым распространённым заболеванием плода у обследованных являлся синдром Дауна (89% от всех выявленных возможных генетических аномалий развития эмбриона). Биохимические маркеры скрининга, такие как содержание хорионического гонадотропина (ХГЧ) и плацентарного фактора роста (PLGF) в крови матери, по нашим результатам являются более информативными, чем ультразвуковые для выявления вероятности развития синдрома Дауна у плода на ранней стадии беременности женщины.
To identify genetic pathologies of the fetus of women in the first trimester of pregnancy, 456 results of screening of biochemical and ultrasound markers of aneuploidy, carried out on the basis of the clinic of LLC "Medical Genomix" (Tver), were analyzed. The most common fetal disease in the examined patients was Down syndrome (89% of all identified possible genetic anomalies of embryo development). Biochemical markers of screening, such as the content of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) and placental growth factor (PLGF) in the mother's blood, according to our results, are more informative than ultrasound for detecting the likelihood of developing Down syndrome in a fetus at an early stage of a woman's pregnancy

A novel two-layer, intradural and extradural patch graft approach to treating dural defects and tears: illustrative case
Authors: Lazarus Daniella , Hawks Charlotte , Kumar Namrita , McCaffrey Tara , Jenkins Arthur L. 
Published: February 2022

BACKGROUND
Dural tears must be quickly addressed to avoid the development of positional headaches and pseudomeningoceles, among other complications. However, sizeable areas of friable or absent dura create unique challenges when attempting to achieve a watertight seal. We have developed a two-layer subdural and epidural fibrous patch technique to treat expansive or challenging dural tears as a result of our experience treating spinal fluid leaks.

OBSERVATIONS
The authors present the treatment of a large necrotic (5 × 1.5 cm) dural defect refractory to initial attempts at standard primary repair with dural patch grafting and requiring a revision with a dual-layer patch to manage persistent cerebrospinal fluid leakage.

LESSONS
The use of a two-layer (subdural and epidural) patch is both a safe and effective dural repair technique for creating a watertight seal in challenging large areas in which the dura may be damaged, scarred, or absent. We also propose that this technique may be able to be used for smaller challenging tears, as well as potentially for repairs of large blood vessels or other fluid-filled structures in the body.
