Small freshwater fish species (SFFs) (length \25 cm) are highly rich in vitamin A, calcium, iron etc. and hence, can contribute to social health through nutrient supplement to rural communities. Under the pressure of extensive modern agricultural practices and indiscriminate harvesting, stocks of SFFs are gradually declining and their habitats and breeding grounds are also being deteriorated at faster rate. A better conservationist approach could be carp-SFFs integration which will reduce indiscriminate mass capture fishing of SFFs and will ensure conservation of natural SFFs stocks in their habitats providing economic benefit to stakeholders. Different studies have already showed success story of SFF polyculture through carp—SFFs integration. This production cum conservation practice leads to sustainability—a better term in fishery is ‘social fishery’. However, the part which needs attention is the feeding ecology of SFFs to understand within and between species (with carps) food partitioning and habitat preference as better culture cum conservational approach.

Repeated imipramine administration enhances the effects of NMDA receptor ligands on synchronous activity in rat frontal cortex in vitro. B. BO-BULA, K. TOKARSKI, G. HESS. Pol. J. Pharmacol., 2001, 53, 635–639. This study assessed the effects of repeated administration (14 days) of imipramine on the function of NMDA receptors by measuring the frequency of spontaneous epileptiform discharges which develop in rat frontal cortical slices incubated in Mg 2+-free conditions. Imipramine significantly enhanced both the excitatory effect of NMDA and the inhibitory effect of the competitive NMDA receptor antagonist CGP 37849 on the frequency of discharges. These results are consistent with studies indicating that chronic administration of antidepressant drugs induces adaptive changes in NMDA receptor/ channel complex in the cerebral cortex. Key words: antidepressant drug, neocortical slice, epileptiform activity, rat correspondence;

В монографии М. Ю. Андрейчевой рассматриваются представления древнерусских книжников об иноверцах (славянских и тюркских язычниках, мусульманах, католиках и иудеях), отразившиеся в Повести временных лет. Автор исследовала комплекс наиболее репрезентативных в отношении заявленной темы сюжетов летописного повествования. В ходе анализа Повести, ее прямых и косвенных источников, а также других памятников, позволяющих пролить свет на исследуемое явление в более широком историко-культурном и религиозном контексте, М.Ю. Андрейчева смогла выявить ряд новых источников летописи и показать, что широкий круг отображенных в раннем летописании образов иноверцев (описания вероучения, культа, нравов, обычаев и облика) содержит ранее не замечавшиеся исследователями семантические пласты.

Correction method for averaging slowly time-variant room impulse response measurements2016 •
Various methods exist for room acoustic measurements. To increase the signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR), averaging of repeated room impulse responses (RIR) can be performed under the assumption of time-invariant systems. Associated with a study of the Paris Notre Dame cathedral, time-variances due to minute temperature changes were observed which confounded results of averaged RIRs, producing significantly shorter reverberation times. A correction method for such time-variance of the acoustic system is proposed, based on time-stretching. Following correction, reverberation times of averaged RIRs were comparable to expected tolerance ranges for measurements, well within one just noticeable difference, while also exhibiting a mid-frequency SNR gain of 8 dB.

Analysis of in-hospital mortality among people with and without diabetes in South Western Sydney public hospitals (2014–2017)2021 •
Background Diabetes is a major public health problem affecting about 1.4 million Australians, especially in South Western Sydney, a hotspot of diabetes with higher than average rates for hospitalisations. The current understanding of the international burden of diabetes and related complications is poor and data on hospital outcomes and/or what common factors influence mortality rate in people with and without diabetes in Australia using a representative sample is lacking. This study determined in-hospital mortality rate and the factors associated among people with and without diabetes. Methods Retrospective data for 554,421 adult inpatients was extracted from the population-based New South Wales (NSW) Admitted Patient Data over 3 financial years (from 1 July 2014–30 June 2015 to 1 July 2016–30 June 2017). The in-hospital mortality per 1000 admitted persons, standardised mortality ratios (SMR) were calculated. Binary logistic regression was performed, adjusting for potential covaria...
