The aim of this study is to identify the characteristics of body size and shape in kampung chickens, as well as the relationship between body size and meat weight. To achieve this, 200 kampung chicken DOC were directly observed using purposive sampling. Purposive sampling where the chickens were divided into 3 groups of body weight, namely high, medium and low.Body size was recorded at 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 weeks of age, and the weight of flesh and bone at 12 weeks of age was analyzed using the ttest.The samples used to obtain the weight of meat and bones (breast and thighs) were 35 males and 23 females.The study used principal component analysis to identify body size and shape characteristics for males and females. Regression and correlation analysis were then conducted to determine the relationship and closeness between body size and the weight of flesh and bone.The results of the study showed that the body size and weight of flesh and bone in kampung male chickens aged 12 weeks were significantly higher
Overview of a Large-Scale Chemical Treatment Success Story: Strawberry Valley, Utah

The waters in Strawberry Valley, Utah, were chemically treated with rotenone to remove all fish species in 1990 to restore a recreational salmonid fishery. This treatment was one of the largest chemical rehabilitation projects ever undertaken, the area encompassing approximately 170 square miles including 55 tributaries to the upper Strawberry River and Strawberry Reservoir. Fish inhabited a total combined length of 161 miles of stream channel and numerous springs. Treatment volume was reduced from 400,000 to 300,000 acre-feet by treating the epilimnion when the reservoir was stratified. Approximately 875,000 lbs of powdered rotenone and 4,000 gallons of 5% liquid rotenone were used. Over 6,000 workdays using 260 personnel and $3.8 million were required to complete the task. Several innovative procedures for handling and applying rotenone (powder and liquid) were developed to include 1) use of 1,000 lb bags to handle the powder, 2) us e of a epilimnetic treatment procedure, 3) mixing powdered rotenone into a slurry with a venturi device, and 4) development of rotenone sandmix that maintains fish toxicity in seeps for 12 hour periods. Summarized here are the objectives, treatment proposal approach, public involvement efforts, regulatory procedures, research and development efforts, and logistical strategies used by the Utah Division of Wildlife to accomplish a chemical treatment of this magnitude. The results of the Strawberry Valley treatment are more than one million hours of fishing pleasure and opportunities for larg e cutthroat trout and kokanee salmon.
Protaspid ontogeny of Bolaspidella housensis (Order Ptychopariida, Class Trilobita), and other similar Cambrian protaspides

ABSTRACT The protaspid ontogeny of Bolaspidella housensis (Walcott, 1886) is re-described. This species is known from the Marjum Formation (Lower Marjuman Stage) of western Utah, USA. Three protaspid stages are recognised, with the instars discriminated most readily by different spacing between the postero-lateral ends of the fixigena. Protaspides of B. housensis are shown to be similar to those of Glaphyraspis parva, from several Upper Cambrian localities in the USA, and Ptychopariide sp. E from the Upper Cambrian of the Wasatch Mountains in Utah, USA.

Investigation of Gut Microbiota Disorders in Sepsis and Sepsis Complicated with Acute Gastrointestinal Injury Based on 16S rRNA Genes Illumina Sequencing

Background Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by the host’s dysfunctional response to infection, which can cause acute gastrointestinal injury (AGI). The gut microbiota is dynamic and plays a role in the immune and metabolic. The aim of this study was to investigate the composition and function of gut microbiota in patients with sepsis, as well as the gut microbiome that may be involved in the occurrence of AGI. Methods A total of 23 stool samples from healthy control individuals and 41 stool samples from sepsis patients were collected. Patients with sepsis were followed up for one week to observe whether AGI has occurred. Finally, 41 patients included 21 sepsis complicated with AGI (referred to as Com-AGI) and 20 sepsis without complicated with AGI (referred to as No-AGI). The gut microbiota was analyzed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing, followed by composition analysis, difference analysis, correlation analysis, functional prediction analysis. Results The diversity and evenness of gut microbiota were decreased in patients with sepsis. Compared with No-AGI, the gut microbiota of Com-AGI has higher community diversity, richness, and phylogenetic diversity. Escherichia-Shigella, Blautia and Enterococcus may be important indicators of sepsis. The correlation analysis showed that aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and Barnesiella have the most significant positive correlation. Moreover, Clostridium_innocuum_group, Christensenellaceae_R-7_group and Eubacterium were all significantly correlated with LAC and DAO. Clostridium_innocuum_group, Barnesiella, Christensenellaceae_R-7_group and Eubacterium may play important roles in the occurrence of AGI in sepsis. PICRUSt analysis revealed multiple functional pathways involved in the relationship between gut microbiota and sepsis, including starch degradation V, glycogen degradation I (bacterial), Lipoic acid metabolism and Valine, leucine and isoleucine biosynthesis. BugBase analysis showed that the gut microbiota with Aerobic phenotype may play an important role in sepsis. Conclusion Dysfunction of gut microbiota was associated with sepsis and AGI in patients with sepsis.
Measuring the Spatial Pattern of Ethnic Groups in San Antonio's Eastside: A Spatial Analysis Approach with the Colocation Quotient

ABSTRACT The study of cities has evolved and shifted paradigms from the early local resources viewpoint, to the morphology perspective, and to the more recent spatial approach. Through these different angles, urban geographers and sociologists have documented the different factors that lead to the formation of unique urban residential patterns. This article focuses on measuring the spatial pattern of ethnic groups residing in the Eastside neighborhood of San Antonio, Texas, in the early 1900s. The goal is to use a replicable abstract approach that will create a baseline for the comparison of current and future patterns, and provide greater understanding of the origins of residential segregation in the City of San Antonio. A historical geodatabase was created by digitizing and georeferencing buildings, blocks, and streets using Sanborn maps from 1911 and 1912, and by linking the digitized shapefiles with 1910 city directory and census data. The data were analyzed to identify and test spatial associations among different ethnic groups using the colocation quotient. This point-based metric examines the overall spatial structure of the data set and highlights the bivariate spatial association between different ethnic groups. The colocation quotient quantifies both hierarchical processes to provide an in-depth analysis of residential segregation on San Antonio's East side.

Development of Discovery Learning Based E-Modules on Animalia and Ecosystem Materials for Class X High School Students

The initial investigation in the research conducted was an interview with a Biology teacher and gave a questionnaire to 21 students of class X MIPA SMAN 12 Bungo to find out the needs of students in e-module teaching materials. The use of teaching materials used by students is still in the form of printed books, LKS, handouts, videos and image media that do not contain concepts about Biology material that is easily understood by students. Therefore, e-modules are needed that can help students in the learning process. It is known that students have difficulty understanding the concepts in Animalia and Ecosystem material, resulting in low learning outcomes. Therefore, e-modules are needed that can help students in the learning process. The purpose of this research is to produce e-modules based on discovery learning on Animalia and Ecosystem materials for class X SMA / MA students who are valid, practical and affective. This type of research is development research using the Plomp model. The Plomp model consists of three phases, namely the preliminary research phase, the design and prototyping phase and the assessment phase. The subjects in this study were students of class X SMAN 12 Bungo. The research data consisted of validation sheets, practicality assessment sheets by teachers and students, observation sheets and learning outcomes in the cognitive, affective and psychomotor domains, as well as multiple choice questions to assess the cognitive domain of students. The results showed that the discovery learning-based e-module with an average value of 93.13% with very valid criteria. The results of the practicality assessment by teachers with very practical criteria with an average value of 83.33% and the practicality assessment by students with very practical criteria with an average value of 87.72%. The effectiveness test found an influence on the learning outcomes of the cognitive, affective and psychomotor domains of students. So in this study it can be concluded that the discovery learning-based e-module on Animalia and Ecosystem material that has been developed is very valid, very practical and very effective which can be used in the learning process.
The Biodiversity of Cyprus Island

The aspects considered in this paper refer to remains of food plants found in the archaeological area of Pyrgos (Early Bronze Age, 2000 B.C.) near Limassol in Cyprus, related to the history of agriculture and cultivated plant processing technologies. For the purposes of an initial comparison of the archaeobotanical data, the authors updated a map of rainfall distribution on Cyprus with rainfall and temperature data for the period from 1973 to 2007, to produce an updated view of possible microclimates on the island. Cyprus was one of the Mediterranean islands whose particular orographic features encouraged the phylogenetic evolution of many species, and today it is especially rich in endemic species. Cyprus located at the southeastern boundary among the Mediterranean region, the Pontic region (the Irano-Turanic element) and the Near East (the Syriac and Nubo-Sindic elements) it doesn’t seem to have effectively influenced the most important endemic species, they were probably preserved by the island’s microclimates and particular edaphic conditions.
Navigating the Saudi Gig Economy: The Role of Human Resource Practices in Enhancing Job Satisfaction and Career Sustainability

In the dynamic context of the global gig economy and Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, this study offers a novel examination of the impact of HR practices on gig workers’ job satisfaction and career sustainability in Saudi Arabia. Setting itself apart from prior research, it explores the uncharted interplay between HR practices and career longevity in the Saudi gig economy. Utilizing data from 344 gig workers, the study uncovers the intermediary role of job satisfaction in connecting HR practices to career sustainability, a dimension scarcely investigated before. It further assesses the often-assumed significant effects of demographic factors such as age and gender, revealing an unexpected, non-significant moderating impact. This research finds a strong positive correlation between effective HR practices, job satisfaction, and career endurance, highlighting the transformative power of HR strategies in the Saudi gig sector. These findings are vital for policymakers and practitioners focusing on Vision 2030 goals, underscoring the need for sophisticated HR strategies tailored to the unique Saudi gig environment. By bridging a critical knowledge gap and offering actionable insights, this study contributes significantly to the academic discourse on HR dynamics in gig economies and provides a foundation for future HR policy developments.
Characterization of Cost-Saving Monofacial PERC Module under Field Conditions in South Korea

The photovoltaic (PV) industry is constantly striving to increase module power output while decreasing costs. Importantly, the performance and reliability of cost-saving products should be evaluated before being launched into the PV market to avoid any unnecessary side effects. This study investigated the performance of a monofacial module employing a cost-saving bifacial cell installed at a carport in South Korea. The bifacial cell reduces costs, compared to monofacial cell, by using a lower quantity of aluminum paste on its rear; consequently, it has become a popular product in the PV industry. The monofacial module employing the bifacial cell showed an improved voltage temperature coefficient and low-light performance over monofacial cell-based module. Our field data highlight three conclusions from the bifacial cell-based module; it showed (1) different voltage temperature coefficients with better performance at lower temperatures, (2) better low-light performance owing to high series resistance, and (3) high current owing to its bifaciality. Notably, under high irradiance and temperature conditions, the bifacial cell performed worse than the monofacial cell. We concluded that this type of cell may perform well under northern European climatic conditions, though further investigation is required to optimize cell performance under various weather conditions.

Prevalence of Retinopathy in Prediabetic Populations: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Among the leading causes of vision impairment and blindness globally, diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the most important causes. There is increasing evidence of DR prevalence in the prediabetic population. This systematic review presents collective data on retinopathy in the prediabetic population. This review article aimed to estimate the reported prevalence of retinopathy in prediabetes, impaired glucose tolerance test (GTT) without diabetes mellitus, and the risk factors involved and to summarize it. Literature searches were done using the Web of Science, CINAHL, Google Scholar, Cochrane, EMBASE, and PubMed databases from inception to April 2023. Our search included the words prediabetes, DR, and risk factors. All searches were looked at for methodological quality and evidence. Thirty-one studies were included after the screening. Population-based data were used in 23 studies (82.1%). The prediabetic population screened was 10,539. The prevalence of retinopathy ranged between 0.3% and 20.9%, showing a median of 8.1% with an interquartile range (IQR) of 4.2-11%, showing great variance in estimates due to the use of different screening methods, methods used for retinopathy grading, and study populations. Several studies compared the population with normal GTT with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and inferred that there was a lower prevalence of retinopathy in the normal GTT population (3.0%, IQR 0.3-7.4%) than prediabetes (6.7%, IQR 1.9-10.1%). According to this data, a greater retinopathy prevalence was found in prediabetic populations.
Childhood Overweight/Obesity amidst Migration, Socioeconomic Factors, and Obesogenic Behaviors: Insights from the Growing Up in New Zealand Study

Research on migration as a risk factor for obesity has produced inconsistent findings. Potential influence of migration as a social determinant of obesity has not been previously explored in New Zealand (NZ) as a migrant receiving country. This study aimed to investigate the link between maternal migration status and residential duration and childhood overweight/obesity risk in NZ, considering sociodemographic characteristics and obesogenic behaviors. Data on 5,506 4- to 5-year-old children and their mothers were taken from a large and nationally representative cohort study in NZ (the Growing Up in NZ Study). Multivariable logistic regression analyses were conducted to examine the association between maternal migration status, maternal residential duration, and child’s overweight/obesity risk and the risk of adopting obesogenic behaviors independent of socioeconomic influences. A lower proportion of children of foreign-born mothers presented with overweight/obesity (26%) at age 5 years compared with children of NZ-born mothers (29.6%) (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) 0.85, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.74, 0.98)). Maternal residential duration had no association with children’s weight status among migrant families. Regarding obesogenic behaviors, the findings were mixed with children of foreign-born mothers having lower odds of consuming fast food (AOR 0.77, 95% CI (0.65, 0.91)) and soft drinks (AOR 0.87, 95% CI (0.76, 0.99)); however, they had higher odds of having inadequate sleep duration (AOR 2.25, 95% CI (1.85, 2.73)). The lower prevalence of overweight/obesity and lower odds of consuming fast foods and soft drinks among children of foreign-born mothers indicate potential protective factors within migrant families. However, the increased likelihood of inadequate sleep duration highlights an area of concern that warrants further attention and intervention. The findings emphasize the importance of considering diverse social determinants of health and specific risk factors when developing targeted interventions to address childhood overweight/obesity.
The effect of telerehabilitation on improving the physical activity of patients with osteoarthritis: A systematic review

This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effect of telerehabilitation on improving physical activity, physical function, and quality of life in patients with osteoarthritis (OA). A systematic review of randomized controlled trial studies was conducted without a time limit by searching for keywords in the title, abstract, and study keywords in the scientific databases Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, and PubMed on October 20, 2021. This study was conducted according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Titles and abstracts were retrieved based on the inclusion, exclusion, and quality assessment criteria. Then, full texts were retrieved and reviewed independently by two separate authors based on the eligibility criteria. Disputes were resolved through discussion. A form with the same predefined elements was used to extract data. Totally, eight eligible articles were found through this review. The studies on telerehabilitation approaches were categorized into three categories, which are: home-based exercise programs by online mobile applications, sports counseling and physiotherapist support via telephone calls, and Internet-based exercise training (IBET). In four studies (57%), telerehabilitation was effective in the short term for some months and improved the performance, self-efficacy, and quality of life of participants. On the other hand, in the long-term effects, there was no difference in participants' improvement (43%). In long-term follow-up, there was no difference between the efficiency of traditional rehabilitation and telerehabilitation in improving the physical performance and quality of life. However, telerehabilitation can be a viable alternative to traditional physiotherapy in patients with OA.
