Ethnonyms in Karabakh Folklore and their Linguistic Characteristics
Onomastic units in the language are related to folklore and all spiritual values. Language is not part of a culture, but it accumulates cultural ideas throughout its history, the world and human concepts through linguistic means, in other words, in words, phrases, specific lexical layers, and sometimes even in grammar. Language serves as the material of cultural expression while being the meta-language of culture, which fixes the meanings, motives and interpretations of oral texts in verbal forms. Viewing language as a source of cultural codes, forms of expression of cultural tradition, study and reference for regeneration of ancient culture, along with folklore texts, ceremonies, and folk, would be more accurate.The ancient history and geography of the people live in the language. The names of ancient tribes, clans and peoples that existed in the homeland of the language speakers have been preserved in folklore examples and have survived to this day. Tribe, folk names - ethnonyms are onomastic units frequently in Karabakh folklore.Information about Azerbaijan's ancient and medieval ethnonyms can be found mainly in the works of ancient authors and Persian-language texts from the medieval period.The study of ethnonyms is also helpful from the historical point of view of the Azerbaijani language. The phonetic differences between the written forms of ethnonyms in the sources and their pronounced documents in our toponymy are significant.The article is based on examples collected and compiled from the book of 10 volumes, "Karabakh: folklore is also a History", published by the Institute of Folklore of the Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences. The etymology of ethnonyms used in Karabakh folklore has been reviewed
Le Crédit de TVA dans le Code General des Impôts (CGI): Essai d’analyse sur ses Origines lors du Contrôle fiscal et ses Implications fiscales
L' objectif pour cet étude est mettre l 'accent sur une question qui pose des interrogations tant sur le plan légal que pratique, en effet le mécanisme de la TVA constitué par deux grandes composantes : à savoir la taxation du chiffre d' affaires et les déduction de TVA grevant les intrants d’ une opération ne peut donner lieu qu' un débit de taxe ( taxe payée au trésors ), si d' autres conditions on été réunies comme par exemple l' application des taux uniques de TVA tant l'amant qu' à l 'aval de la même opération, or dans la réalité et au vu de la structure des dispositions fiscales régissant la TVA , la situation est plus complexe et dans beaucoup de cas, le résultat de cette opération donnera lieu à un crédit de TVA, d' où l' intérêt de rechercher son origine et ses implications fiscales au travers une lecture du code des impôts et la réalité pratique lors du contrôle fiscal
The Palestinian Woman: A History of Struggle
The history of the Palestinian woman cannot be separated from the national history of the Palestinian people. Throughout this century, Palestinian women marched and demonstrated, were exiled and killed for the defense and liberation of their homeland and the protection of their children, husbands, brothers and sisters. In this process of national liberation, the Palestinian woman liberated herself from some of the restrictions placed upon her by the traditional, patriarchal society. Unlike the American woman\u27s struggle which was a struggle against sexism, patriarchal institutions and male domination, the Palestinian woman\u27s struggle is a response to the national conditions of statelessness, occupation, exile and oppression
Determination of the Heat Distribution in the Raw Cotton Packed in the Coil
As a result of experimental studies, a special mathematical model of raw cotton is developed. The effect of density change on the thermal conductivity coefficient is determined. A nonlinear differential equation of heat propagation in coils is obtained. The dependence of the density of raw cotton on the coil height is determined experimentally. The heat flux is intense propagating from denser layers of raw cotton to less dense ones. In a saturated form, the effect of density changes on the propagation of heat is less than in the coils. Pocket spontaneous heating occurs locally with sharp boundaries.An expression is found, which is the general solution of the mathematical model of heat propagation in raw cotton in coils, on the basis of which a number of physical real models can be constructed.The model allows to preliminarily give an estimation of the likely picture of the temperature field in the given microvolumes of raw cotton
IMPROVING THE MECHANISM OF USING THE PRICE FACTOR IN THE EFFECTIVE REGULATION OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION ON THE BASIS OF FUZZY LOGIC
When studying the role of the price mechanism in the sustainable development of the economy, in accordance with the requirements of the modern economic mechanism, first of all, attention should be paid to the issue of state regulation of prices. The attitude to state regulation of prices is ambiguous. Existing control over the implementation of state regulation of the prices of a group of products based on the social protection of the population and the economic interests of the state, and economic legitimacy is sometimes perceived as a violation of economic democracy. However, the analysis of the role of the price factor in economic development proves that this idea has no basis. Thus, it is not possible to make accurate calculations so that the price of the product can change at any time for various reasons. Therefore, it is advisable to approach these calculations on the basis of fuzzy logic.When studying the role of the price mechanism in the sustainable development of the economy, in accordance with the requirements of the modern economic mechanism, first of all, attention should be paid to the issue of state regulation of prices.

Low-Dose Continuous 5-Fluorouracil Combined with Leucovorin, nab-Paclitaxel, Oxaliplatin, and Bevacizumab for Patients with Advanced Pancreatic Cancer: A Retrospective Analysis.
BackgroundContinuous-infusion 5-fluorouracil (5FU) and calcium leucovorin plus nab-paclitaxel and oxaliplatin have been shown to be active in patients with pancreatic cancer. As a protracted low-dose infusion, 5FU is antiangiogenic, and has synergy with bevacizumab. As shown in the treatment of breast cancer, bevacizumab and nab-paclitaxel are also synergetic.ObjectiveIn this paper we retrospectively analyze the survival of 65 patients with advanced pancreatic cancer who were treated with low-dose continuous (metronomic) chemotherapy given in conjunction with conventional anti-VEGF therapy.Patients and methodsSince July of 2008, we have treated 65 patients with 5FU (180Â mg/m2/day Ă— 14Â days) via an ambulatory pump. Calcium leucovorin (20Â mg/m2 IV), nab-paclitaxel (60Â mg/m2) IV as a 30-min infusion, and oxaliplatin (50Â mg/m2) IV as a 60-min infusion were given on days 1, 8, and 15. Bevacizumab (5Â mg/kg) IV over 30Â min was administered on days 1 and 15. Cycles were repeated every 28-35Â days. There were 42 women and 23 men, and the median age was 59 years. Forty-six patients had stage IV disease.ResultsThe median survival was 19Â months, with 82% of patients surviving 12Â months or longer. The overall response rate was 49%. There were 28 patients who had received prior treatment, 15 of whom responded to therapy. Fifty-two patients had elevated CA 19-9 prior to treatment. Of these, 21 patients had 90% or greater reduction in CA 19-9 levels. This cohort had an objective response rate of 71% and a median survival of 27Â months. Thirty patients stopped treatment due to disease progression, and an additional 22 stopped because of toxicity. One patient died while on therapy.ConclusionsThis non-gemcitabine-based regimen resulted in higher response rates and better survival than what is commonly observed with therapy given at conventional dosing schedules. Low-dose continuous (metronomic therapy) cytotoxic chemotherapy combined with antiangiogenic therapy is safe and effective

Amplification of Environmental Appraisal Coordination at General Hospital Lahore and its Implications to Evaluate Management Review
Quality standards have been a significant achievement for organizations worldwide. Environmental standards should be established in hospitals by coding ISO14001. Hospital water pollution can cause health issues in nearby urban areas and settlements. The study was aimed to estimate, characterize, use, and response to water quality parameters on amplification of environmental coordination at General Hospital Lahore (GHL), and their implications for evaluation in management reviewing. For these purposes, the drinking water samples were collected from different locations in the study area. All these samples were analyzed for different water quality parameters namely, pH, TDS, turbidity, and chloride, and compared with national environmental quality standards (NEQS). All the results and management processeswere also compared with ISO 14001:2015, which indicated the weakness in the general administration framework and Environmental Management System (EMS). The results show that pH 8.6, TDS 1100 mg/l, turbidity 5.5 NTU, and chloride 260 mg/l were exceeding the maximum permissible limits. The present study recommended that GHL water should be treated before its use/ disposal. In the end, an EMS (a policy with protocol) manual was developed for continual improvement of water use. Drinking water quality assessment and EMS framework offer assistance to oversee the water quality and environment in health centers. Drinking water quality management under the guidelines of the environment management system manual developed in this study will greatly help to manage the environment, particularly water pollution in local hospitals of Pakistan

Pancreas Cancer-Associated Weight Loss.
Unintentional weight loss in patients with pancreatic cancer is highly prevalent and contributes to low therapeutic tolerance, reduced quality of life, and overall mortality. Weight loss in pancreatic cancer can be due to anorexia, malabsorption, and/or cachexia. Proper supportive care can stabilize or reverse weight loss in patients and improve outcomes. We review the literature on supportive care relevant to pancreatic cancer patients, and offer evidence-based recommendations that include expert nutritional assessment, counseling, supportive measures to ensure adequate caloric intake, pancreatic enzyme supplementation, nutritional supplement replacement, orexigenic agents, and exercise. Pancreatic Cancer Action Network-supported initiatives will spearhead the dissemination and adoption of these best supportive care practices. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: Weight loss in pancreatic cancer patients is endemic, as 85% of pancreatic cancer patients meet the classic definition of cancer cachexia. Despite its significant prevalence and associated morbidity, there is no established approach to this disease entity. It is believed that this is due to an important knowledge gap in understanding the underlying biology and lack of optimal treatment approaches. This article reviews the literature regarding pancreas cancer-associated weight loss and establishes a new framework from which to view this complex clinical problem. An improved approach and understanding will help educate clinicians, improve clinical care, and provide more clarity for future clinical investigation
