Authors:   Universidad Libre, Echeverry Jiménez Isabella
Published: June 2024

En la actualidad, hay evidencia de que la Enfermedad Renal Crónica (ERC) aumenta de forma significativa día a día, generando una carga de enfermedad terminal importante, convirtiéndose así en un problema de salud pública. Por ser esta más prevalente en la edad adulta, se acostumbra abordarla con el enfoque propio de la adultez, en la medida en que la obesidad, la diabetes y la hipertensión son las causas más frecuentes de ERC que requieren un manejo nutricional desde su inicio. Por su parte, en los niños, la enfermedad renal aguda y crónica requiere también un soporte nutricional desde etapas muy tempranas de la vida. Las anormalidades congénitas de los riñones y las vías urinarias (CAKUT, sigla en inglés), son las causantes del 50-55 % de la enfermedad renal crónica en niños y adolescentes. Adicionalmente, se suma ese 10 a15 % que generan los niños prematuros y/o con Retardo del Crecimiento Intra Uterino (RCIU) que, al final de su desarrollo postnatal, quedan con una masa renal disminuida, colocándolos en riesgo de deterioro de la función renal en etapas tempranas de la vida. Existe otro grupo de pacientes causante de ERC, que son los niños que desde la infancia exhiben enfermedades glomerulares renales como el síndrome nefrótico, con pérdidas sustanciales de proteínas y micronutrientes por orina u otros que presentan tubulopatías, en donde las pérdidas de electrolitos, aminoácidos o sustancias buffers por orina generan un impacto negativo sobre el desarrollo pondoestatural y sicomotor del niño. Este grupo poblacional es el causante del 15-20 % de ERC. Todas estas enfermedades se vuelven aún más importante cuando se encuentran en períodos especiales de la vida como es el crecimiento rápido en los primeros tres años de vida, la adolescencia, embarazo o procedimientos quirúrgicos mayores, convirtiéndose en poblaciones que requieren una intervención o asesoría nutricional adecuada como pilar fundamental para su manejo. Estas causas de ERC en el niño, que desde su inicio tienen el acompañamiento de los pediatras, urólogos, cirujanos pedi

Aluminum Alloy 6061 is widely used in various engineering applications, including automotive vehicle wheels. The selection of aluminum alloy wheels involves aspects such as corrosion resistance. To enhance corrosion resistance, there are several methods, one of which is anodizing. Anodizing is a process that involves an electrolytic coating process that transforms the surface of aluminum into aluminum oxide (Al2O3), which the main process of aluminum anodizing requires a solution of sulfuric acid, chromic acid, or a mixture of sulfuric acid and oxalic acid. The sulfuric acid used must be concentrated acid, and acid is an oxidizing substance. The thickness of the oxide is approximately twice the thickness of the lost aluminum. The purpose of this research is to determine the characteristic such as surface roughness values, corrosion rates, and changes in morphology in Aluminum 6061 after undergoing anodizing. In this study, various current strengths were used, namely 0.75 Amperes, 1.5 Amperes, 2.25 Amperes, and 3 Amperes. The highest surface roughness value was obtained at 0.447 μm in the third specimen of the 0.75 Ampere variation, while the lowest was 0.075 μm in the first specimen of the 3 Ampere variation. The highest corrosion rate was observed in the 0.75 Ampere variation, with a rate of 17.724004 mpy, and the lowest was 0.0731653 mpy in the 3 Ampere variation. SEM results show that, in general, Aluminum 6061 tends to have a bright gray color, which is a surface that has been coated by cathode.

One of the processes commonly used in making plastic goods is the injection molding process. Every process in injection molding has a very important role. A less-than-perfect process will result in defects or failure in the product. To reduce product defects, one of the processes that must be researched is the barrel purging process. The purging volume on the mini injection machine using the V-line method is inconsistent, as evidenced by the fact that if the purging waste, or what is usually called an avalanche is weighed, it will produce a non-uniform mass. This research uses a mini injection machine with the V-line method which has 2 main steps to carry out the plastic injection process; dosing and injecting. Unlike injection engines in general, this engine does not have a check-ring to withstand back pressure. This machine uses a shut-off system as a replacement for the check-ring role. This machine has never been subjected to a purging volume consistency testing process. The consistency of the purging volume greatly influences the product uniformity results. The research method used in this final assignment is direct. Data collection and test specimen collection will be taken directly on the mini injection machine using the V-line method. The steps taken in this research are planning, taking data, taking test specimens, processing test specimen data, and comparing test specimen data to obtain analysis results. The research results show that the mini V-line injection machine cannot support mass production, because increasing the screw rotation speed will affect the consistency of the volume of plastic that will be produced in the barrel, causing production to not run quickly and precisely.

Published: June 2024

In greenhouse cultivation of stock (Matthiola incana), the main causative agent of its death is the fungus Fusarium sp., especially in the early phenological stages, resulting in significant losses during the first four weeks of cultivation. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate phytosanitary control techniques (chemical, biological, and antibiotics) to reduce Fusarium sp. infection in stock (Matthiola incana) cultivation. The experiment was conducted in a randomized block design with five treatments (control; chemical products; biological products, antibiotics, and product combinations) and three replications. The chemical active ingredients used were aluminum phosphite, iprodione, captan, and Hymexazol. Biological solutions included Trichoderma sp. and Bacillus subtilis, while antibiotics used were Weed Pirocontrole, Kasugamicin, Polioxin B, Azoxystrobin, and Kresoxym methyl. Additionally, product combinations were evaluated, such as Fosetyl aluminum, Bacillus subtilis, Polioxin B, Hymexazol, and Azoxystrobin. Control efficacy was measured based on the severity of fungal growth in culture, while mortality represented the loss rate at the end of the experiment. The combined treatment of techniques was superior, with a mortality rate of 13.77%, compared to the 63.00% recorded in the absolute control group. These results underscore the importance of an integrated approach to Fusarium sp. control in stock cultivation, emphasizing the effectiveness of combining different phytosanitary techniques to minimize losses and promote successful production.

Published: June 2024

The development of information and communication technology has contributed to the increase in the creation and dissemination of pornography which has had a negative influence on the morals and noble personality of the Indonesian people. In relation to the era of globalization, the existence of a corporation has a big contribution to the interests of the country and its citizens. The existence of corporations is often accompanied by violations, including violations of criminal law, one of which is the case of the pornographic film industry and trade. The authors examine the criteria for criminal acts of pornography which are classified as corporate crimes and how sanctions are applied for criminal acts of pornography as a corporate crime. This research uses normative-empirical juridical methods and analytical descriptive research specifications. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that the criteria for criminal acts of pornography which are classified as corporate crimes are non-violent, corrosive effect, and have a very detrimental impact on society at large. The industry and trade in pornographic films is a form of criminal corporation/organization, and there has never been a court decision regarding sanctions for corporate criminal acts applied to cases of criminal acts of pornography. Efforts that can be made to overcome this problem are to harmonize the definition of a corporation, create clear criteria for corporations as subjects of criminal law, need to hold Focus Group Discussions (FGD) among academics and law enforcement officials, and apply sanctions against perpetrators of criminal acts of pornography which are classified as corporate crimes.
The Effect of Object Thickness in Numerical Reflectance and Transmittance using Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD)
Authors: Gunawan Vincensius
Published: June 2024

The electromagnetic waves could be simulated using finite difference time domain.  This simulation method based on Maxwell equations.  Here, the fields were spatially discretized along time discretization.  This was the basic concept for updating the fields in every time step.  Since the reflection and transmission of electromagnetic waves were the basic phenomena for optical studies of the waves in materials, we studied the reflectance and transmittance.  In FDTD, the reflection and transmission could be calculated using Fourier transformation.  We found that the thickness of the object which was inserted to the system affected the reflection and transmission significantly.  If the thickness of the object became thicker, then there also increased  the appearance frequency of the reflectance with the similar values.  It was also happened to the transmittance.

Institutional Considerations for the EU Gas Sector Competitiveness
Authors: Lont Paweł
Published: June 2024

The study explores the subject of sectoral competitiveness on the example of gas sectors in different European countries. Literature review on sectoral competitiveness suggests that the concept has evolved considerably over time and that contemporary definitions of competitiveness span beyond traditional economic factors. Studies on gas sector in this context to date, however, have largely focused on export competitiveness of upstream activities. To address the research gap, a targeted approach is suggested to study and compare competitiveness of the entire national gas sectors, spanning beyond standard productivity measures. A dedicated synthetic indicator is designed to perform a comparative analysis of contemporary gas sectors, taking account of the gas price offered to the industry, institutional performance, infrastructure readiness and job creation potential. Then, the case study is presented and it examines four countries that have liberalized their gas sectors and are reliant on gas imports to a different degree. Results confirm that the application of a synthetic indicator factoring in different aspects of sectoral competitiveness is appropriate to arrive at a holistic view of gas sector’s relative performance. The significance of the institutional setup is also confirmed from the perspective of inducing investment, enhancing market liquidity, as well as creating sustainable jobs in the gas sector.
„Historio, historio, cóżeś ty za pani”
Authors: Stobiecki Rafał
Published: June 2024

Tytuł książki świadomie nawiązuje do wiersza Agnieszki Osieckiej. Poetka odsłania przed nami tę twarz historii, której często nie chcemy widzieć, którą podświadomie odrzucamy. Nie dostojnej muzy Klio, ale historii będącej ciężarem, obezwładniającej, pretensjonalnej, bezwzględnej, oskarżającej.
Ale jest jeszcze inna twarz przeszłości. To historia pokrzepiająca, przeszłość jako bajka opowiadana przez zwycięzców i moralistów, w gruncie rzeczy niewiele znacząca poza samą sobą. Zdając sobie sprawę z pewnej przewrotności, która towarzyszy naszym zmaganiom z historią, w niniejszej pracy chciałbym upomnieć się o ten rodzaj historii, który przeciwstawia się dwóm wcześniej wymienionym, zwrócić uwagę na potrzebę historii refleksyjnej, krytycznej, świadomej swoich ograniczeń. Zebrane w książce teksty zdecydowałem się podzielić na trzy dopełniające się części.
Pierwsza z nich dotyczy historiografii, druga koncentruje się na zjawisku pamięci zbiorowej/pamięci historycznej, trzecia grupuje wypowiedzi na temat szeroko dyskutowanej ostatnio kategorii „polityki historycznej”, tej dawnej i tej współczesnej. Ideą spajającą zebrane w tej książce szkice jest przeświadczenie o różnych formach obecności przeszłości w kulturze. W zależności od kontekstu może ona służyć celom poznawczym, emancypacyjnym, ludycznym czy propagandowym. Ów nadmiar historii i różne użytki, które z niej czynimy, są znakiem epoki.

Developmental Anatomy of Gray Matter of Spinal Cord in Animals with Special Reference to Prenatal Goat: A Review
Authors: Maya S.
Published: June 2024

Spinal cord is the major nerve tract of vertebrates, extending from the brain through the vertebral canal. Primordium, the neural tube was initially with thick lateral walls having three layers: inner germinal/ependymal layer, middle mantle layer forming the gray matter and outer marginal layer forming white matter. It presented a diamond-shaped lumen with a sulcus limitans, alar, basal, roof and floor plates and limiting membranes. Gray matter of the cord occupies the central region of spinal cord and in amniotes has in cross section, the well-known ‘H’ or butterfly-like shape. The white matter forms a thick peripheral zone of the cord and is divided by the gray columns into dorsal, lateral and ventral funiculi. There are three coumns for the gray matter, viz. the dorsal, ventral and lateral horns, with ventral ones being wider at the enlargements of the cord. Lateral horn appears only at thoracic, anterior lumbar and middle sacral levels. The layers of gray matter were laminae I to X. Lamina I or marginal zone capped the dorsal horn. Lamina II represented substantia gelatinosa and covered the dorsal horn, beneath marginal zone. Lamina III was an area with loosely arranged larger cells, entering the substantia gelatinosa. Lamina IV was a poorly defined cell column with nucleus proprius. Lamina V was a broad zone extending across the cervix of the dorsal horn; had spinal reticular nucleus and reticular processes. The region showed small to medium-sized cells which were most numerous in the zone between the ventral part of the dorsal horn and the lateral funiculus of white matter. Lamina VI was broad with unclear boundaries, related medially to central canal. It had compact medial and less compact lateral zones. Lamina VII shows the intermediate gray matter, with intermediolateral and intermediomedial nuclei, cervical nucleus of Stilling and Clark’s column. Lamina VIII had cells of small and medium size and was not sharply distinguished from lamina VII. Lamina IX had alpha and gamma type of neurons, which were larger at enlargements. Ventral horn had lateral and medial nuclear groups of multipolar neurons. Medial nuclear groups were seen in all regions and lateral groups only at enlargements. Medial nuclear group had dorsomedial and ventromedial nuclei; whereas the smaller lateral nuclear group had dorsolateral and ventrolateral nuclei. In addition, the enlargements also had central and retrodorsolateral nuclei. Lamina X was seen around the central canal. Laminae varied in cell size and thickness between regions of the cord. Development of laminae and nuclei of spinal gray in fetuses corresponded to the progressive growth of muscles and skeleton. All the ten laminae were together present in the spinal gray matter by the end of gestation.

Published: June 2024

Background: Vaccination and deworming are routine programs in cattle health management. However, the anthelmintic’s effectiveness on the immune response in vaccinated cattle is limited. Therefore, this study investigated whether anthelmintic administration affects the oxidative stress and immunity induced by vaccination against lumpy skin disease (LSD) in cattle. Methods: Thirty-seven Thai beef cattle were divided into two groups. Group 1) 19 cattle were vaccinated against LSD with a Neethling LSD virus (LSDV) vaccine as the control group and Group 2) 18 cattle were vaccinated against LSD with a Neethling LSDV vaccine and received albendazole treatment. Then, the intensity of gastrointestinal parasite infestation, level of malondialdehyde, inflammatory cytokines and antibody titer to LSDV were investigated in both groups on day 30 of the experimental period. Result: The results showed that the types and intensity of gastrointestinal parasites were decreased in the anthelmintic-treated group. There were no significant differences in the levels of malondialdehyde, IFN-γ, TNF-α and LSD-specific antibody titers between the control and the anthelmintic treatment group (P greater than 0.05), while the expression level of IL-4 in the anthelmintic treatment group was significantly lower than in the control group (P less than 0.05). Our study indicated that albendazole treatment did not affect oxidative stress and innate and adaptive immunity against LSDV. Moreover, single-dose albendazole therapy led to a reduction in the expression level of IL-4, which is involved in defense against parasites.

Digital Adoption and Women in the Labor Market: Indonesia’s Case
Authors: Sofa Wahyuni Andriana , Eschachasthi Realita
Published: June 2024

Although the advantages of digitalization are frequently mentioned, there is still a persistent gender disparity in labor participation, especially in developing nations. This study examines the extent to which digitalization guarantees gender equality. Specifically, it aims to analyze the impact of internet usage on women’s involvement in Indonesia’s workforce. This study additionally examines the impacts in various parts of the country. Through the use of panel Tobit regression, utilizing district-level data obtained from SUSENAS-KOR, SAKERNAS, and INDO-DAPOER for the years 2017-2019, we have discovered a noteworthy and positive correlation between the utilization of the internet and the participation of women in the labor force. The observed effect remains strong even after accounting for additional factors. The heterogeneity analysis indicates that the correlation between internet usage and female labor force participation is more pronounced in the Java region than in areas outside Java. However, obstacles still prohibit women from accessing the advantages of digitalization. Hence, the proposed policy entails prioritizing equitable internet access and diminishing the obstacles to women’s participation in the labor market to attain gender equality.

Authors: Sari Vita Kartika , Yaumidin Umi Karomah
Published: June 2024

The necessity for a reevaluation of international trade has become increasingly apparent, particularly in Islamic countries. This study aims to estimate the economic development of selected Islamic countries, namely Egypt, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, Brunei Darussalam, and Kuwait, in terms of export performance. This study was conducted within the broader context of Islamic countries, with a specific focus on analyzing dynamic panel data from 2010 to 2019. The dependent variable included exports of goods and services, while the regressors included GDP growth, broad money, and inflation. An estimation based on the panel generalized method of moments revealed a significant effect of export (-1) on export, a significant and negative impact of broad money on export, and a significant and positive effect on inflation. In contrast, GDP growth was not found to be significant. These findings are consistent with the high number of global Muslim consumers and the growth of Islamic finance assets. Currently, Islamic countries are prioritizing product diversification for both the Muslim and global markets. These findings indicate the need for increased economic development to achieve the practical implications of sustainable economic growth in Islamic economies.

Portal vein thrombosis is the most common thrombotic complication in patients with liver cirrhosis, especially in cases of severe forms. The pathogenesis is multifactorial in nature, it determined by a change in the balance between the coagulation and anticoagulation systems. Thrombosis is often asymptomatic and is accidentally detected, although it can be complicated by varicose bleeding, intestinal ischemia, and portal biliopathy. Ultrasound Doppler examination is a screening method, as an alternative, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are used. The review highlights data on epidemiology, risk factors, clinical features, and diagnosis of portal vein thrombosis in patients with liver cirrhosis. The data on the effect of portal vein thrombosis on the progression of liver cirrhosis and the survival of patients, including after liver transplantation, are presented.
Executives Implicated in Financial Reporting Fraud and Firms’ Investment Decisions
Authors: Cho Moon Kyung , Kang Minjung
Published: June 2024

This study examines the impact of executives implicated in fraud on firms' investment decisions using AAERs in the US, aiming to address the underexplored aspect of rationalization within the fraud triangle. Executives implicated in fraud often display abnormal attitudes to justify accounting irregularities, prompting an investigation into how abnormal investment decisions are used for rationalizing fraud, given their critical role in a firm's long-term sustainability. Analysis of AAERs spanning from 1981 to 2013 reveals that implicated executives, particularly CEOs and CFOs, tend to make abnormal investment decisions, and that collusive fraud exacerbates this behavior. Notably, such executives lean towards overinvestment, particularly in R&D expenditures, to hide or justify fraud; the duration of fraud amplifies its impact on investment decisions. By shedding light on the rationalization aspect of the fraud triangle, this research contributes valuable insights for investors, regulators, and academia emphasizing the significance of public disclosure of fraud to enhance transparency in capital markets and the importance of ethics-focused education in accounting to prevent corporate fraud.
Minimization of Transmission Line Losses through Corrective Control of System Topology
Authors: Orbea David , Carrión Diego , Jaramillo Manuel
Published: June 2024

This research proposes a methodology for minimizing losses in transmission lines (LT), considering the reconfiguration of the architecture of the electrical power system (SEP). The implementation of this methodology redirects the power flow with optimal switching through its LTs to guarantee the stability of the voltage, angle, frequency, and power balance to minimize losses that affect the reliability and quality of the system. Optimal transmission switching (OTS) allows various types of analysis to be carried out, where the loadability of the lines, response times, and operating costs, among others, can be improved. This article proposes to minimize the losses in the transmission lines with the OTS by using AC power flows as a mixed integer nonlinear problem (MINLP). Several test scenarios evaluate the method’s effectiveness, determining the optimal topology for corrective control that optimizes power flows in different situations. It has been proven that this approach reduces losses compared to a base case by 99%, even in the face of N-1 or random contingencies, without losing load, maintaining the same active power dispatch, and finally verifying a strategic increase in dispatch of reactive power to maintain operating parameters within stable limits.

Published: June 2024

This study investigates the spatial urban growth patterns of cities along the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Zambia border, a region of significant economic importance characterized by cross-border trade. This activity has led to rapid, but unplanned urban growth. The objective is to quantify the spatial expansion of Congolese cities (Kipushi, Kasumbalesa, Mokambo, and Sakania) bordering Zambia and to evaluate associated landscape changes. The methodology integrates Landsat images from 1990, 2000, 2010, and 2023, coupled with Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and landscape ecology analysis tools. The results reveal substantial landscape transformations in the border cities between 1990 and 2023. These changes are primarily driven by rapid urban expansion, particularly pronounced in Kasumbalesa. Between 1990 and 2023, forest cover declined from 70% to less than 15% in Kipushi, from 80% to 10% in Kasumbalesa, from 90% to 30% in Mokambo, and from 80% to 15% in Sakania. This forest cover loss is accompanied by an increase in landscape element diversity, as indicated by the Shannon diversity index, except in Kipushi, suggesting a transition towards more heterogeneous landscapes. In these border cities, landscape dynamics are also characterized by the expansion of agriculture and savannas, highlighted by an increase in the disturbance index. Spatial pattern changes analysis shows that built-up areas, agriculture, and savannas exhibit trends of patch creation or aggregation, while forests are undergoing processes of dissection and patch attrition. Congolese cities bordering Zambia are undergoing substantial spatial changes propelled by intricate interactions between economic, demographic, and infrastructural factors. Our results highlight the necessity for sustainable development strategies to address challenges such as urban sprawl, deforestation, and fostering cross-border cooperation in border regions.

Remote work as a new working pattern is considered of high importance in determining the competitiveness of the institutions that adopt this form of work. This trend toward remote working has benefited workers greatly in terms of flexibility and work-life balance and has had unanticipatedly positive effects on sustainability. The issue has grown in importance considering recent development of digitalization and high concern of countries to achieve the sustainable goals. This study attempts to examine the effect of three explanatory variables: remote work, institutional efficiency, and work management on the competitiveness of finance institutions in Saudi Arabia. To collect the primary data, a survey was conducted on a stratified random sample that comprised 1270 respondents. The sample covers the three finance sector segments: banks, insurance, and finance companies. Correlation analyses, one-sample t-tests, and multi-regression analyses are applied to analyze the data. The results of the study showed that there is a positive significant relationship between the three explanatory variables of the study and institutional competitiveness. Besides, the regression model revealed that the two explanatory variables; remote work and institution efficiency are statistically significant at 95% confidence intervals, while work management is not statistically significant. The study recommends promoting remote work to increase the finance institution's competitiveness by restructuring the work policies, designing work strategies, and introducing a new management system compatible with remote work.
Shaolinia: A Fossil Post Between Conifers and Angiosperms
Authors: Wang Xin , Chen Li-Jun
Published: June 2024

The greatly diversified flowering plants (angiosperms) are the dominating and defining group in the current earth ecosystem. However, from which group by what way the flowers, especially their gynoecia (key characteristics of angiosperms), are derived have been the questions in botany unanswered over centuries. Such an embarrassing situation can be attributed to the lack of plants with partially enclosed ovules, which are supposed to be a post between gymnosperms and angi-osperms. Here we report a fossil plant that has an apparent coniferous vegetative and reproduc-tive morphologies but has a single seed partially wrapped by the subtending bract. Such a mor-phology suggests that the carpels in angiosperms may be equivalent to bracts enclosing their axil-lary seed(s). Such a non-traditional interpretation of the homology of angiosperm carpels is com-patible with various new progresses made in botany and is in line with Tomlinson’s recent hy-pothesis. Together with other fossil evidence reported recently, it appears that gynoecia in angio-sperms are derived in multiple ways.

In the context of rapid urbanization, the spatiotemporal patterns of socio-economic exposed to high seismic hazard in large cities lacks quantitative assessment, thus, it is difficult to understand the evolution of earthquake catastrophe risk there. In this paper, exposure change rate, and absolute and relatively exposure indices were proposed to quantitatively study the changes of spatiotemporal exposure to high seismic hazard in urban areas of large cities (i.e., permanent residents in urban areas more than 1 million) in Chinese mainland, using a set of multi-temporal population, GDP, and built-up datasets and a seismic hazard zoning map. The results show that, 64 out of 78 large cities are entirely or partially located in high seismically hazardous zones. Although the urban areas of large cities in high seismically hazardous zones (HSHUAs) cover only 1.73% (167177 km²) of mainland China, their share of population, GDP, and built-up land amounted to 18.14%, 30.24% and 24.55%, respectively, in 2015. Unprecedented urbanization has led to a dramatic exposure growth in HSHUAs between 1990 and 2015. The population, GDP, and built-up land in HSHUAs increased by 110 million people (with an average annual growth rate of 2.37%), 273.71 trillion USD(average annual growth rate of 11.15%), and 10593 km2 (average annual growth rate of 2.02%), respectively. HSHUAs experienced much faster population and GDP growth than the whole country, while relatively slower growth in built-up land. Exposure growth in HSHUAs also was varied for different types of large cities. Megacities had a higher proportion of increased GDP and population in HSHUAs, induced by industry and population agglomeration. Whereas, Type II large cities had a higher proportion of increased built-up land in HSHUAs, driven mainly by urban sprawl. Our analysis indicates that, for large cities under rapid urbanization, it is an urgent need to strengthen resilient urban planning, renewal and construction.
