ECONOMIC DIPLOMACY OF TURKEY IN THE CONTEXT OF POLITICS OF PRESTIGE IN FOREIGN ECONOMIC RELATIONS by Uğur Ünal

“…States are obliged toadjust their foreign policy according to circumstances like relaxation in the conflicts between the in-block orinter-blocks caused by the socio-political, socio-economic and socio-psychological developments; change ofpower balance; and emergence of new strong states as these circumstances can present new possibilities or, onthe contrary, hazards before the world states.States living between two double-poled blocks from the World War I to the late 1950s witnessed China pullingitself out of the Soviet Socialist system in the early 1960s and beginning to increase its effectiveness as a thirdmajor in its region. …”

Computational design, expression, and characterization of a Plasmodium falciparum multi-epitope, multi-stage vaccine candidate (PfCTMAG) by Joan A. Chick, Nadege N. Abongdia, Robert A. Shey, Tobias O. Apinjoh

“…In-silico analysis revealed that the designed antigen, PfCTMAG (Plasmodium falciparum Circumsporozoite, Thrombospondin-related adhesion protein, Merozoite surface protein 2, Apical asparagine (Asn)-rich protein and Glutamate-Rich Protein), effectively bound to Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR-4) and triggered a strong immune response. In sero-reactivity studies, malaria-positives (cases) had higher anti-PfCTMAG IgG (p = 0.024) and IgM (p < 0.001) levels compared to malaria negatives (controls). …”

Soil Restoration Practices on Priming Effect Intensity and Carbon Fluxes by Abdourhimou Amadou Issoufou, Bachirou Hamadou Younoussa, Idrissa Soumana, Ali Mahamane

“…In addition, restoration influences the abundance and diversity of decomposers, as well as the soil microbial community, by inducing up to more CO2 emission with fresh millet straw addition in fresh state than the predecomposed one. Restoration had strongly increased the impact by up to 22.7%, while the priming effect (PE) mineralization did not increase. …”
