One of the most efficient aminoglycoside is amikacin. Yet, it has been linked to unwanted renal toxicity, which has resulted in negative alterations in various biochemical indicators, particularly ...those related to oxidative stress, kidney function, and inflammation. The goal of this research was to see how citrus bergamot extract affected hemato-biochemical, inflammatory, and oxidative stress parameters in male rats triggered by acute amikacin toxicity.A total of 30 male rats were divided into five equal groups, each with six rats. The first group received 1 ml DW orally and its represent control group. Group 1 was given 1 ml of DW orally and I.P. AK (1.2 gm/kg) on day seven. Group 2 was given 100 mg/kg CBE orally for ten days. Groups (3) and (4) were given 100 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg of CBE, respectively, orally for ten days. On the seventh day of the experiments, I.P. AK (1.2 gm/kg) was given to the test groups. At the end of the trial, blood samples were used to assess oxidative stress, renal function, inflammatory markers, and some hemato-biochemical parameters.Significantly higher levels of serum MDA, IL-6, urea, and creatinine, and an adversely affect lipid profile, are indications of AK-induced nephrotoxicity. Supplementation of CBE attenuated AK-induced change in these biomarkers.It was concluded that CBE supplementation protects against the nephrotoxic effects of AK because to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and hypolipemic properties.

Geopolitical and national interests predominate, given that a war between Russia and Ukraine would result in a daily economic decline in both countries. I am convinced that countries, not their ...people, wage wars. People have other concerns, such as food and a virus that has apparently not yet left these countries. Several plausibility arguments are presented in the first section of the paper, which addresses the persistently debated virus's origins. In contrast, its leadership continues to flounder. Numerous healthcare workers perished on the front lines, but there was scant coverage of their deaths during the first year of the pandemic and none since. The elderly, the frail elderly, and even the young are the most severely affected by the pandemic deaths that have occurred over the past two years and continue to occur. Current ontology is concerned with the controversies, hypotheses, and theories surrounding this damned insignificant RNA and its capacity to cause such catastrophic harm to humanity. Indeed, the issue is its disputed and contested origin. After two years, it appears that the graphs, countries, and news that are updated every minute on the Worldometer have not changed. However, something has changed; for example, countries have ceased to report the incidence of COVID-19 deaths.
The leading Russian culture philosophers of the 20th century – Aleksei Losev and Gustav Shpet turned to images of circus art and eccentrics in order to explain how modern aesthetic perception works. ...The author proves that this appeal was not only illustrative, but had to structure the idea of culture in a new way, far from the habits of the positivist approach. Direct competition, which encourages subjective emotion and allegorical thinking, was questioned with the ascetic of contemplation and direct reaction, intended to the rules more than to properties. The ascetic of contemplation and direct reaction, which intends to the rules more than to properties, were set in opposition to the direct competition that encourages subjective emotion and allegorical thinking.

Using as examples two Polish-French ...projects named „Shakespeare Project” and „MOON”, whose aim was an artistic exchange between professional French actors and a group of young circus artists from Klub 303 Ośrodka Kultury Kraków–Nowa Huta, the author presents multidimensional (educational, social and intercultural) influence of theatre.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of COVID-19 preventive measures on the mental health of performing arts students. In a prospective cohort study, performing arts students (
N
= ...213) from Codarts Rotterdam, University of the Arts, were invited to monitor their health during one academic year (September 2019–May 2020). Every month, students completed items on mental health complaints, stress, and sleep quality. Chi-square tests and repeated-measures ANOVA with deviation contrasts were performed to investigate whether COVID-19 preventive measures were associated with changes in mental health complaints, stress scores, and sleep quality. During the COVID-19 lockdown, subjective mental health, Mental Health Inventory-5 (MHI-5), and items on loneliness were additionally completed by the respondents. A total of 98 students (46.0%) were included in the analyses. The 3-month prevalence of mental health complaints was significantly higher during the COVID-19 lockdown compared to the two pre-COVID-19 periods (
p
< 0.001). Mean stress scores were significantly lower for February (35.20) and March (36.41) when compared to the overall mean (40.38). Sleep quality scores (mean) were significantly higher for April (6.90), and May (6.89) when compared to overall mean (6.58). Furthermore, at least 75.5% of the participants dealt with moderate to very severe loneliness in all 3 months during the COVID-19 lockdown. During lockdown, performing arts students perceived less stress and their sleep quality increased. However, the prevalence of mental health complaints increased. Besides, 3 out 4 students dealt with moderate to very severe loneliness.
