Authors: Ulyanovskaya E. V. , Atabiev K. M.
Published: June 2021

The results of a long-term ecological testing of 12 apple varieties of domestic and foreign selection in the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania are presented. The biological features of fruiting of representatives of the genus Malus in a southern region of Russia were studied with the purpose of identifying the most valuable varieties in terms of a set of indicators for further breeding and production. According to the conducted long-term observations (2012–2019), the following varieties with compact small-sized crowns (volume of 1.48-2.09 m3) were identified: Zolotaya Korona, Lyubimoe Dutovoj, Sunrise and Red Chiff. Among summer triploid varieties, the variety of Soyuz was selected according to the yield factor (total yield was 159.2 t/ha, which was 56.5 t/ha higher than the control). The varieties of early winter and winter ripening period with a high total (198.3–299.2 t/ha) and average (33.05–49.87 t/ha) yield were determined: Ligol, Zolotaya Korona, Lyubimoe Dutovoj, Alanskoe and Pinova. It was established that the varieties of Alanskoe, Zolotaya Korona, Lyubimoe Dutovoj, Sunrise and Pinova exhibit high productivity indicators, with the specific productivity of the crown volume being 17.00–21.87 kg/m3. It was revealed that the fruits of all studied foreign and domestic apple varieties grown under favourable conditions of the region meet modern requirements in terms of diameter (65–75 + mm) and average weight (200–220 g). Among the most promising varieties for breeding and production were found to be Liberty, Zolotaya Korona and Lyubimoe Dutovoj with large fruit (214.5–237.8 g), as well as Soyuz, Ligol, Alanskoe and Prikubanskoe with very large fruit (289.3–330.2 g). It is concluded that the apple varieties of regional selection (Alanskoe, Zolotaya Korona, Lyubimoe Dutovoj, Soyuz) and foreign selection (Sunrise and Pinova) can be recommended when breeding varieties with the required set of valuable agrobiological propertites, as well as when creating intensive industrial plantings and obtaining high-quality domestic fruit products.

Authors: Tarmidi Deden
Published: June 2021

UMKM merupakan jenis usaha terbesar di Indonesia dari jumlahnya, namun umumnya pelaku UMKM terbatas pada bagian penjualan atau produksi saja sehingga memiliki keterbatasan dalam menghitung dan menyetor pajak penghasilan yang menjadi hak dan kewajiban perpajakan pelaku UMKM. SME Tower merupakan lokasi dimana pelaku UMKM di seluruh Indonesia menjajakan hasil kerajinannya. Kegiatan Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat ini dilakukan dengan metode sosialisasi dan demonstrasi, praktek / latihan menghitung dan menyetor pajak dengan studi kasus, dan metode tanya jawab. Hasil dari PKM ditemukan bahwa sebenarnya pelaku UKM sadar bahwa pajak sangat penting bagi pembangunan dan juga usaha UMKM namun dengan keterbatasan informasi dari Direktorat Jenderal Pajk dan keterbatasan sumber daya manusia menjadikan pelaku UMKM belum sepenuhnya melaksanakan hak dan kewajiban perpajakan. Kegiatan PKM ini dirasakan sangat bermanfaat bagi peserta dan terjadi peningkatan pemahaman peserta tentang penghitungan dan penyetoran pajak UMKM.

La valeur ajoutée de la digitalisation: être plusinformé, connecté et agile

La digitalisation et les nouvelles technologies représentent un grand potentiel pour soutenir une gestion des écosystèmes forestiers qui soit proche de la nature, multifonctionnelle et durable. Il existe déjà de nombreux exemples concrets de l’utilisation judicieuse de ces technologies dans ce domaine exigeant et complexe. Les capteurs des satellites, des drones ou des smartphones fournissent des informations toujours plus précises sur l’état de la forêt et son évolution. La digitalisation et la mise en réseau des processus de gestion favorisent une pensée systémique et aident à mieux appréhender la complexité de la gestion forestière. Les plateformes d’échange d’expériences et de connaissances permettent de mettre en commun les nombreuses et diverses expertises venant de la pratique, ce qui permet de mieux comprendre, en fonction des situations et des faits, la dynamique des écosystèmes forestiers, les techniques sylvicoles utilisées et leurs effets. La réalité virtuelle offre la possibilité de rapprocher la forêt du grand public. Par exemple, le «voyage dans le temps», permis par une documentation visuelle de la forêt au cours du temps, peut être utilisé pour illustrer les effets des mesures sylvicoles et les relier concrètement aux attentes de la société et des propriétaires forestiers. Etre bien informé et renforcer la pensée systémique et les échanges avec les acteurs forestiers sont des conditions préalables importantes pour pouvoir s’adapter rapidement, de façon flexible et efficace et faire preuve d’agilité, ce d’autant plus dans un contexte de changements profonds, tels que les changements climatiques.

Perbedaan Perceived Restorativeness Antara Siswa Yang Bersekolah Di Sekolah Alam Dengan Sekolah Umum
Authors: Johan Satria Putra
Published: June 2021

Pengalaman restoratif atau perceived restorativeness adalah suatu pemulihan kondisi individu dari kelelahan psikologis sebagai akibat dari aktivitas sehari-hari. Ruang bagi anak untuk berinteraksi dengan alam dewasa ini semakin sedikit, sehingga perceived restorativeness menjadi menurun. Salah satu jenis sekolah yang ada saat ini yang memiliki unsur-unsur alami adalah sekolah alam, namun masih sangat sedikit penelitian psikologi di Indonesia dengan objek sekolah alam ini.. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat bagaimana perbedaan perceived restorativeness antara anak yang bersekolah di sekolah alam dengan anak yang bersekolah di sekolah umum. Penelitian dilakukan dengan pendekatan kuantitatif untuk melihat perbedaan perceived restorativeness antara dua kelompok subjek tersebut menggunakan teknik uji komparasi. Instrumen yang digunakan adalah skala PRCSC-II. Hasilnya ditemukan bahwa terdapat perbedaan  perceived restorativeness antara siswa sekolah alam dengan sekolah umum (p<0,05), dengan tingkat perceived restorativeness pada siswa sekolah negeri lebih tinggi daripada siswa sekolah alam. Perbedaan ini dapat disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor, yaitu kerapian dan kelebatan elemen hijau di sekolah yang bersangkutan, keberadaan teman, serta aktivitas yang dilakukan di sekolah. Diharapkan dari hasil penelitian ini nantinya dapat diaplikasikan, baik oleh pihak sekolah umum maupun sekolah alam, untuk merancang lingkungan sekolah yang lebih restoratif.

Authors: Fakhruddin Fakhruddin
Published: June 2021

The social morality education contained in Serambeak is a meeting of the sacred mission of Islamic education with the Rejang culture in terms maintaining the life of the Rejang community. The Rejang community lives on the basis of a rural life system that strongly adheres to a set of cultures and customs called Serambeak, which contain social morality education of the community. Thus, this qualitative research was conducted by means of the descriptive-analytic method in a way that the words, sentences, and discourses in the literary work of Serambeak were described, and were, then, analyzed by providing understanding and explanations of texts. Data interpretation was carried out resting upon the researcher’s and community’s perspectives through information shared by traditional and religious leaders. The data analysis technique was carried out by classifying the data based on tracing the sentence clusters in Serambeak through the character's speeches and their   attitudes. The results of this study revealed the following: First, the use of Serambeak as a local culture with its literary beauty makes it easier for the Rejang community to receive the social morality education brought by Islam as a foreign religion. Second, the content of social morality education in Serambeak consists of the arrangement of life for action and demands for action. Third, the social morality education contained in Serambeak is an effort to erode the old life orders, attitudes, and behaviors of Rejang people.

What Do Americans Think About Federal Tax Options to Support Transportation? Results from Year Twelve of a National Survey
Authors: Agrawal Asha Weinstein , Nixon Hilary
Published: June 2021

This report summarizes the results from the twelfth year of a national public opinion survey asking U.S. adults questions related to their views on federal transportation taxes. A nationally-representative sample of 2,516 respondents completed the online survey from February 5 to 23, 2021. The questions test public opinions about raising the federal gas tax rate, replacing the federal gas tax with a new mileage fee, and imposing a mileage fee just on commercial travel. In addition to asking directly about support for these tax options, the survey collected data on respondents’ views on the quality of their local transportation system, their priorities for federal transportation spending, their knowledge about gas taxes, their views on privacy and equity matters related to mileage fees, travel behavior, and standard sociodemographic variables. This large set of variables is used to identify personal characteristics and opinions correlated with support for the tax options. Key findings include that large majorities supported transportation improvements across modes and wanted to see the federal government work towards making the transportation system well maintained, safe, and equitable, as well as to reduce the system’s impact on climate change. Findings related to gas taxes include that only 2% of respondents knew that the federal gas tax rate had not been raised in more than 20 years, and 71% of respondents supported increasing the federal gas tax by 10 cents per gallon if the revenue would be dedicated to maintenance. With respect to mileage fees, roughly half of respondents supported some form of mileage fee, whether that was assessed on all travel or just on commercial travel, 62% believe that low-income drivers should pay a reduced mileage fee rate, and 52% think that electric vehicles should pay a lower rate than gas and diesel vehicles. The analysis of trends across the survey series, which has run from 2010 to 2011, shows that support for both higher gas taxes and a hypothetical new mileage fee has risen slowly but steadily, and Americans’ experience with COVID over the past year has not disrupted those trends. Finally, support for the tax and fee options varies mostly by most personal characteristics, but there are frequently large differences correlated with age, community type, and political affiliation.

Over the years the need for differentiating various emotions from oral communication plays an important role in emotion based studies. There have been different algorithms to classify the kinds of emotion. Although there is no measure of fidelity of the emotion under consideration, which is primarily due to the reason that most of the readily available datasets that are annotated are produced by actors and not generated in real-world scenarios. Therefore, the predicted emotion lacks an important aspect called authenticity, which is whether an emotion is actual or stimulated. In this research work, we have developed a transfer learning and style transfer based hybrid convolutional neural network algorithm to classify the emotion as well as the fidelity of the emotion. The model is trained on features extracted from a dataset that contains stimulated as well as actual utterances. We have compared the developed algorithm with conventional machine learning and deep learning techniques by few metrics like accuracy, Precision, Recall and F1 score. The developed model performs much better than the conventional machine learning and deep learning models. The research aims to dive deeper into human emotion and make a model that understands it like humans do with precision, recall, F1 score values of 0.994, 0.996, 0.995 for speech authenticity and 0.992, 0.989, 0.99 for speech emotion classification respectively.
What causes AIS? Ask the genome!

The most common developmental disorder of the spine is scoliosis, a rotated, lateral deformity in the shape of the spinal column. Scoliosis may be part of the clinical spectrum that is observed in many developmental disorders, but typically presents as an isolated symptom in otherwise healthy adolescent children. Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) has defied pathogenic understanding in part due to its genetic complexity, and to the lack of well-defined animal models. The disease is also remarkable in its sexual dimorphism, where girls are at more than five times greater risk of progressive deformity than boys. Breakthroughs have come from recent genome wide association studies (GWAS) and next generation sequencing (NGS) of human AIS cohorts. Post-hoc gene set and pathway-level analyses of genetic datasets have highlighted a role for cartilage biogenesis and the development of the intervertebral disc (IVD) in disease susceptibility. Moreover, next generation sequencing in AIS families, as well as modeling in vertebrate systems, has revealed that rare deficiencies in proteins of the cartilaginous extracellular matrix (ECM) collectively contribute to AIS. Thus, as in a jigsaw puzzle, the pieces coming together from multiple biologic studies suggest that deficiencies in the structural integrity and homeostasis of spinal cartilages are culprits in AIS susceptibility. Here, we update progress in understanding the genetic, biochemical, and cellular determinants of AIS. We also suggest a molecular model in which interaction of the hormonal environment with genetic susceptibility may increase risk of this common disorder of childhood.
The sagittal curvature of the spine can be a leading cause of scoliosis in pediatric spine
Authors: Pasha S
Published: June 2021

The etiology of the adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) remains unknown. Variations in the sagittal profile of the spine between the early stage scoliotic and non-scoliotic pediatric patients have been shown. However, no quantitative study has shown the link between the sagittal profile and 3D deformity of the spine. 126 right thoracic scoliosis with spinal and 3D reconstructions were included. A 2D finite element model was developed for each of the sagittal curve types without any deformity in the frontal or axial planes. Physiological loadings were determined from the literature and were applied in the finite element model. The 3D deformation patterns of the models were compared to the 3D spinal patterns of the AIS with the same sagittal type. A significant correlation was found between the 3D deformity of the scoliotic curves and the numerical finite element simulation of the corresponding sagittal profile as determined by pattern correlation, p<0.001. The sagittal curve deformation patterns corresponded to the spinal deformities in the patients with the same sagittal curvature. Finite element models of the spines, representing different sagittal types in 126 AIS patients showed that deformation pattern of the sagittal types changes as a function of the spine curvature and associates with the patterns of 3D spinal deformity in AIS patients with the same sagittal curves. This finding provided evidence that the sagittal curve of the spine can determine the deformity patterns in AIS.
How different the scoliotic curves are?

The pathomechanism of spinal deformity development in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) has been related to the sagittal curvature of the spine. It is not known how the variations in the sagittal profile relates to the coronal deformity patterns in AIS. A total of 70 Lenke 1 and 50 Lenke 5 AIS patients were included retrospectively. A finite element (FE) model was developed for each spine where the sagittal spinal curvatures were modeled as 2D S shaped elastic rods. Transverse plane deformation patterns of these rods under physiological loading were determined and clustered based on their similarities. The patients’ characteristics, including the Lenke type, and the spinal measurements in these deformation pattern clusters were statistically compared. Three different axial deformation patterns were determined from the FE simulations of the 120 sagittal curves. Two axial groups were looped shaped in opposing directions (Group I and III) and one was lemniscate shaped (Group II). 94% of the patients in Groups I and II were Lenke 1 and 100% of Group III was Lenke 5. The position of the sagittal inflection point moved downward from Group I-III resulting in significantly different ratio of the arc lengths above and below the sagittal inflection points for Groups I, II and III (0.49±0.59, 1.15±0.44, and 3.22±1.8). A classification of idiopathic scoliosis, based on the biomechanics of S-shaped flexible rods deformation could distinguish between different coronal curve types. The geometrical parameters of the sagittal profiles in the axial deformation pattern groups were significantly different.

The aims of this study were to evaluate the effect of a thoracoplasty procedure in addition to a posterior spinal fusion and instrumentation on an Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) patient’s 3D back contour as measured by surface topography. We performed a retrospective review to identify patients who were treated with posterior spinal fusion with spinal instrumentation and those who were treated with an additional thoracoplasty procedure. We analyzed changes in surface topography measurements between these two groups using t-test and ANCOVA statistical analyses. Although there were no statistically significant differences in 11 of 12 variables, thoracoplasty-posterior spinal fusion (n=10) group had a mean 6.6 unit reduction in trunk asymmetry while the posterior spinal fusion group (n=26) had a mean 22.8 unit reduction in trunk asymmetry (p-value<0.05). The posterior spinal fusion group and thoracoplasty-posterior spinal fusion group were not shown to have clinically significant differences in 3D back contour correction. An additional thoracoplasty procedure does not provide better correction in the transverse plane and in fact had a smaller degree of trunk asymmetry correction. This supports the current trends of decreasing use of thoracoplasty in AIS patients to address severe rib hump deformities given concerns for decreased post-operative lung function and alternative methods of vertebral body derotation, such as thoracic pedicle screws.

Severe adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) requires surgery to halt curve progression. Accurate insertion of pedicle screws is important. This study reports a newly developed 3D ultrasound (3DUS) to localize pedicles intraoperatively and register a pre-op 3D vertebral model to the surface to be displayed for navigation. The objective was to determine speed of the custom 3DUS navigator and accuracy of pedicle probe placement. The developed 3DUS navigator integrated an ultrasound scanner with motion capture cameras. Two adolescent 3D printed spine models T2-T8 and T7-T11 were modified to include pedicle holes with known trajectory and be mounted on a high precision LEGO pegboard in a water bath for imaging. Calibration of the motion cameras and the 3DUS were conducted prior to the study. A total of 27 scans from T3 to T11 vertebrae with 3 individual scans were performed to validate the repeatability. Three accuracy tests that varied vertebral a) orientation, b) position and c) a combination of location and orientation were completed. Based on all experiments, the acquisition-to-display time was 18.9±3.1s. The repeatability of the trajectory error and positional error were 0.5±0.2° and 0.3±0.1mm, respectively. The a) center orientation, b) position and c) orientation/position on trajectory and positional error were for a) 1.4±0.9° and 0.5±0.4mm, b) 1.4±0.8° and 0.3±0.3mm and c) 2.0±0.8° and 0.5±0.5mm, respectively. These results demonstrated that a high precision real-time 3DUS navigator for screw placement in scoliosis surgery is feasible. The next step will study the effect of surrounding soft tissues on navigation accuracy.
