Purpose – The purpose of this study is to diagnose the extent of digital exclusion of seniors in Poland, especially in the context of their use of social services, and to review social law and government programs in terms of preventing digital exclusion of seniors. Research method – The research methods used in the preparation of the study in question are the analysis of domestic and foreign literature on the subject, the analysis of statistical data on the matter in question and the dogmatic‑legal method. Results – The analysis carried out revealed three main problems that prevent seniors from effectively using social services through information and communication technologies. First is the scant use of modern media by seniors, second is the mismatch between e-government and the possibility of its use by seniors, and the third is the lack of appropriate solutions that could solve the aforementioned problems. Originality / value / implications / recommendations – Identification of the main factors that prevent seniors from benefiting from social services supported by ICT.

Authors:   Uniwersytet Łódzki, Comporek Michał
Published: July 2023

Purpose – The main objective of the paper is establishing the characteristics of the Q-Test and EQ‑Score measures as alternative tools for assessing the earnings quality of public companies. Research method – The estimation of the earnings quality was prepared basing on the analytical formulas of Putman et al., and Gullet et al. models. The exemplification research studies were conducted for public companies classified in the WIG‑DIV index of the Warsaw Stock Exchange in 2016–2020. Results – There are positive relationships of medium strength between the calculated values of the Q-Test and EQ‑Score indicators. In the analyzed research sample, the average values of the Q-Test indicators were generally higher than the average values of the EQ‑Score indicators and were characterized by a greater degree of dispersion. The EQ‑Score is statistically significantly correlated with the discretionary accruals separated using the Jones and Kasznik models, which indicates its potential for predicting the earnings management phenomenon. Originality / value / implications / recommendations – The study is the first example of empirical verification of the usefulness of the Q-Test and EQ‑Score models in assessing the quality of the financial results of public companies operating on the Polish capital market.

Girls Empowerment! Wspieranie mocy dziewcząt* i młodych kobiet* w międzykulturowej edukacji pozaszkolnej
Authors:   Szkoła Doktorska Uniwersytetu Szczecińskiego, Reichardt Magdalena Anna
Published: July 2023

The article shows selected aspects of “the pedagogy of empowerment” aimed at girls and young women, alongside proposing methods for a successful transfer of attitudes, knowledge, and skills in this field. In the paper, learning processes are seen from an intersectional perspective, and serve to counteract cultural, structural, and systemic discrimination and unequal power relations. The considerations are based on the experiences gathered during Polish-German projects, as well as those relating to the functioning of day-care centres for girls in the federal state of Brandenburg (Ger- many), both of which have been the subject of the author’s action research over the last ten years. The text is aimed at educators, parents, girls, young women, and disseminators of ideas who are active in the field of non-formal, school and out-of-school education and who wish to support the empowerment of young people. Key in these learning processes are attention and sensitivity to individual needs and biographical complexities (understood as a set of life circumstances) while remaining perceptive and supportive of the group process. In the discussed learning processes, bonding, friendship, solidarity, consensual communication, free and critical thinking, awareness of possibilities and the ability to apply different kinds of strategies in life, as well as the ability to “perceive oneself in the present moment and place”, become particularly important. One might call this approach a “pedagogy of the present”, as it addresses situations and relationships pertinent to the here and now, rather than the distant indefinite future. As an example of this approach, the article presents the methodology used during an annual one-week German-Polish sailing trip organised for girls and young women.

Authors: Khoirudin Iman , Atmaja Hamdan Tri , Arsal Triwathy
Published: July 2023

Social resilience is one of the vital social capitals for youth, especially in Bandarharjo, North Semarang, a marginalized area with many juvenile delinquents. Social resilience is an attempt to transform social behavior in a place that is safe, conducive, and upholds tolerance. Therefore, this article aims to examine the social institution's role in building youths' social resilience in Bandarharjo North Semarang and analyze the youths' social resilience in Bandarharjo with Bourdieu's theory as the leading theory. This research employed a qualitative approach with a phenomenological description study that investigated the individual's subjective experience through the social institution leaders and youths in Bandarharjo. The results showed that the social institutions involved in the establishment of social resilience are family, village community, religious institutions, and educational institutions; youth social resilience predominantly comes from religious and family social institutions; and social resilience can alter most of the negative behaviors of marginalized youth in Bandarharjo and sustain them through internal and external negative influences. This research reinforces Bourdieu's theory that a good environment and social capital affect individuals' habits in developing social resilience.

Sub-Gaussian random variables and Wiman's inequality for analytic functions
Authors: Kuryliak A.O. , Skaskiv O.B.
Published: July 2023

Let $f$ be an analytic function in $\{z: |z|<R\}$ of the form $f(z)=\sum\limits_{n=0}^{+\infty}a_n z^n$. In the paper, we consider the Wiman-type inequality for random analytic functions of the form $f(z,\omega)=\sum\limits_{n=0}^{+\infty}Z_n(\omega)a_nz^n$, where $(Z_n)$ is a sequence on the Steinhaus probability space of real independent centered sub-Gaussian random variables, i.e. $(\exists D>0)(\forall k\in\mathbb{N})(\forall \lambda\in\mathbb{R})\colon \mathbf{E}(e^{\lambda Z_k})\leq e^{D \lambda^2}$, and such that $(\exists\beta>0)(\exists n_0\in\mathbb{N})\colon \inf\limits_{n\geq n_0}\mathbf{E}|Z_n|^{-\beta}<+\infty.$

It is proved that for every $\delta>0$ there exists a set $E(\delta)\subset [0,R)$ of finite $h$-logarithmic measure (i.e. $\int\nolimits_{E}h(r)d\ln r<+\infty$) such that almost surely for all $r\in(r_0(\omega),R)\backslash E$ we have \[ M_f(r,\omega):=\max\big\{|f(z,\omega)|\colon |z|=r\big\}\leq \sqrt{h(r)}\mu_f(r)\Big(\ln^3h(r)\ln\{h(r)\mu_f(r)\}\Big)^{1/4+\delta}, \] where $h(r)$ is any fixed continuous non-decreasing function on $[0;R)$ such that $h(r)\geq2$ for all $r\in (0,R)$ and $\int^R_{r_{0}} h(r) d\ln r =+\infty$ for some $r_0\in(0,R)$.

Interventionismus 2.0
Authors: Follert Florian , Quitzau Jörn
Published: July 2023

Negative Externalitäten und Marktversagen dienen in der medialen Diskussion nicht zuletzt als Begründung für staatliche Eingriffe in die Marktwirtschaft und die individuelle Entscheidungsfreiheit der Bürger und Unternehmen – oftmals gepaart mit einer generellen Skepsis gegenüber der Institution des Marktes. Wir nehmen dies zum Anlass, einen staatlichen Interventionismus kritisch zu würdigen, der sich in modernen Gesellschaften nur noch selten als solcher zu erkennen gibt, sondern den Bürgern vielmehr das Gefühl vermittelt, die staatlichen Eingriffe seien ein alternativloses Mittel, das dem sogenannten Allgemeinwohl diene. Zahlreiche Erkenntnisse der ökonomischen Theorie – insbesondere die Dezentralität des Wissens und der Subjektivismus – lassen jedoch erhebliche Zweifel an den Fähigkeiten eines Zentralplaners aufkommen.
Una concepción hegeliana de la amnistía
Authors: Mañalich Raffo Juan Pablo
Published: July 2023

El artículo presenta una aproximación a la institución de la amnistía basada en la concepción de la prerrogativa de «gracia» como potestad soberana que Hegel articula en su Filosofía del Derecho. Tras dar cuenta de su carácter políticamente problemático, se examina cómo la potestad de amnistiar, así entendida, puede ser integrada en un esquema constitucional de división de poderes, lo cual exige considerar el mérito de la usual identificación del «derecho de gracia» con un resabio monárquico. A partir de ello, el artículo se centra en las implicaciones jurídico-políticas de que en semejante manifestación de la «majestad del espíritu» se vea reflejada una esfera «más elevada» que aquella en cual se encuentra situado su ejercicio. La indagación en la función de la gracia como reflejo (marginal), en el nivel de desenvolvimiento del espíritu objetivo, del pleno reconocimiento recíproco en el que consiste el espíritu absoluto hace posible resignificar la institución de la amnistía como un señalamiento de la finitud de lo jurídico.

Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are used in various sectors of the national economy, in particular in agriculture. The purpose of the research is to consider the essence and directions of application of AI technologies in agriculture. These technologies are used in various branches of agriculture: detection of plant diseases, classification and identification of weeds, determination and counting of fruits, management of water resources and soil, forecasting of weather (climate), determination of animal behavior. AI technologies used in agriculture have a number of significant features. First of all, these are software and technical means. AI technologies perform an intellectual function when performing work in agriculture, which consists in making abstract conclusions, recognizing patterns, taking actions in conditions of incomplete information, showing creativity, and the ability to self-learn. The strengths of the use of AI technologies include increasing labor productivity in the agricultural sector, increasing the efficiency of management decisions, as well as increasing access to information, expanding human opportunities in the workplace and the emergence of new professions. The main opportunities are related to various technical breakthroughs, including machine learning, the use of neural networks, big data, etc. This will create additional jobs in high-tech sectors, in particular in programming. AI technologies will allow to optimize the production of food all over the world and reduce the severity of the problem of global hunger. One of the threats to Ukraine lies in the apparent lag behind advanced countries in the development of these technologies for agriculture. The results of the research can be used by the executive authorities when develo¬ping programs for the innovative development of agriculture and technical modernization of the industry.
Moving Horizon State Estimation for Linear System with Application to Autonomous Vehicle
Authors: Purnawan Heri , Ilmi Ulul , Faroh Rifky Aisyatul , Ar Rizqi Ahmad Bustanul Ali , Resmi Fitroh
Published: July 2023

AbstractThis paper proposes moving horizon estimation (MHE) to estimate the state variables of autonomous vehicle linear systems under measurement noises. To solve the MHE optimization problem, quadratic programming is employed. The steering angle, yaw angle, and global position constraints of an autonomous vehicle are considered in the estimation design. According to the simulation results, it can be observed that although the longer MHE step can give better results compared to the shorter MHE step, the difference in the MHE step only slightly affects the estimated results. However, the longer MHE step can increase the computational time. Additionally, the proposed MHE scheme is compared to the Kalman filter (KF) estimator. Based on the obtained results, the KF gives a better estimation than the MHE, but this notion must be verified for other case studies.Keywords: autonomous vehicle; Kalman filter; linear system; MHE; quadratic programming. AbstrakPaper ini mengusulkan moving horizon estimation (MHE) untuk mengestimasi variabel keadaan sistem linier kendaraan otonom karena pengaruh noise pengukuran. Untuk menyelesaikan masalah optimasi MHE, digunakan pemrograman kuadratik. Kendala sudut kemudi, sudut yaw dan posisi global dari kendaraan otonom dipertimbangkan dalam desain estimasi. Dari hasil simulasi dapat diketahui bahwa meskipun langkah MHE yang lebih panjang dapat memberikan hasil yang lebih baik dibandingkan dengan langkah MHE yang lebih pendek, perbedaan langkah MHE hanya sedikit mempengaruhi hasil estimasi. Namun, langkah MHE yang semakin panjang dapat meningkatkan waktu komputasi. Selain itu, skema MHE yang diusulkan dibandingkan dengan estimator Kalman filter (KF). Berdasarkan hasil yang diperoleh, KF memberikan estimasi yang lebih baik daripada MHE, tetapi gagasan ini harus diverifikasi untuk studi kasus lainnya.Kata Kunci: kendaraan otonom; Kalman filter; sistem linier; MHE; pemrograman kuadratik. 2020MSC: 62P35, 65D19
The Alpha Power Transformed Logistic Distribution: Properties, application and VaR Estimation

Published: July 2023

AbstractIn this paper, a new three-parameter distribution, which is a member of the Alpha Power Transformed Family of distributions, is introduced. The new distribution is a generalization of the logistic model called the alpha power transformed logistic (APTL) distribution. Some mathematical properties of the new distribution like moments, quantile function, median, skewness, kurtosis, Rényi entropy, and order statistics are discussed. The parameters of the distribution are estimated using the maximum likelihood estimation method and a simulation study is performed to investigate the effectiveness of the estimates. The usefulness and flexibility of the APTL distribution in modelling financial data are investigated using two portfolio stock indices, namely the NASDAQ and New York stock indices, both from the United States stock market. Based on the model selection criteria, we are able to establish empirically that the APTL distribution is the best for modelling the two data sets, among the various distributions compared in the study. For each of the data, the quantile value-at-risk estimates for the APTL distribution give the smaller expected portfolio loss at high confidence levels in comparison to those of the other distributions.Keywords: Alpha power transformed family of distributions; logistic distribution; maximum likelihood estimation; portfolio investments; value-at-risk. AbstrakPada artikel ini, diperkenalkan distribusi baru dengan tiga parameter yang merupakan anggota dari keluarga distribusi Alpha Power Transformed. Distribusi baru ini merupakan generalisasi dari model logistik yang disebut distribusi Alpha Power Transform Logistics (APTL). Selain itu, dibahas pula beberapa sifat matematika dari distribusi tersebut yaitu momen, fungsi kuantil, median, kemiringan, kurtosis, entropi Rényi, dan statistik terurut. Parameter distribusi diestimasi menggunakan metode maximum likelihood estimation dan studi simulasi dilakukan untuk menyelidiki keefektifan estimasi. Kegunaan dan fleksibilitas distribusi APTL dalam pemodelan data keuangan diselidiki menggunakan dua indeks saham portofolio dari pasar saham Amerika Serikat yaitu indeks saham NASDAQ dan New York. Berdasarkan kriteria pemilihan model, secara empiris, dihasilkan bahwa APTL adalah distribusi terbaik untuk memodelkan dua set data di antara berbagai distribusi yang dibandingkan pada penelitian ini. Untuk setiap data, estimasi kuantil value-at-risk untuk distribusi APTL memberikan kerugian portofolio yang diharapkan lebih kecil dengan tingkat kepercayaan tinggi dibandingkan dengan distribusi lainnya.Kata Kunci: distribusi dari keluarga Alpha power transformed; distribusi logistik; maximum likelihood estimation; investasi portofolio; value-at-risk. 2020MSC: 62E10.
Bilder, Musik und Lyrik in kolumbianischen Familiengedächtnissen
Authors: Homann Florian
Published: July 2023

Die kolumbianischen Schriftsteller Héctor Abad Faciolince und Tomás González inszenieren in ihrer Literatur bevorzugt die komplexen Prozesse des Erinnerns anhand von Familiengedächtnissen, wobei der Austausch der Erfahrungen von verschiedenen Medien und Erinnerungsfiguren abhängt. In ausgewählten Erzähltexten beider Autoren wird untersucht, inwieweit Kunstwerke anderer Gattungen, wie Gedichte, Bilder oder Lieder die Funktionen von Erinnerungsfiguren übernehmen. Da die Gedächtnisse der Familien über eine Vielzahl intermedialer Verweise im Spiel mit lyrischen, visuellen und auditiven Elementen vermittelt werden, ist schlusszufolgern, dass die Inhalte der dargestellten Gedächtnisse zwar in einem sozialen Nahhorizont verortet sind, durch diese Bezüge jedoch in eine kulturelle Dimension übertragen und als paradigmatisch für eine größere Gemeinschaft gesehen werden können.

Relación entre teoría y práctica estadística en tiempos de pandemia por COVID-19 en estudiantes de Enfermería. ¿Unidad dialéctica perdida?
Authors: Alonso Trujillo Javier , Alonso Ricardez Abraham , Valera Mota Myrna Miriam , Cuevas Guajardo Leticia
Published: July 2023

El objetivo de este trabajo fue analizar la correlación entre teoría y práctica observada durante una experiencia docente en tiempos de pandemia por COVID-19 en el módulo de métodos cuantitativos. Se aplicó un diseño observacional, transversal, prospectivo y analítico. Se obtuvieron calificaciones teórico-prácticas durante cuatro meses del ciclo escolar de un grupo de 22 estudiantes de Enfermería. Se aplicaron tres instrumentos de medición tipo cuestionario para medir el aprendizaje teórico, práctico de entrenamiento y práctico aplicado en los temas de cálculo del tamaño muestral, validación interna de instrumentos, estadística univariada/bivariada y estadística multivariada. Los datos se obtuvieron al recolectar las calificaciones obtenidas en formularios de Google aplicados en línea. Se realizaron análisis de correlación teórico-práctica con las calificaciones obtenidas. Solo se obtuvo una correlación directa, moderada y significativa entre teoría y práctica de estadística multivariada (r = .579; p = .005). En conclusión, prácticamente no hubo correlación teórico-práctica entre los contenidos evaluados, excepto en aquellos considerados complejos (Estadística multivariada). Se sugiere que la estrategia aquí presentada, sea aplicada en cualquier asignatura como método de control pedagógico con la finalidad de observar si la unidad dialéctica teoría-práctica se conserva o se ha perdido, y se analicen los posibles factores causantes de ello.

Authors: López Pacheco María Marta
Published: July 2023

El objetivo de este artículo fue describir la experiencia de un caso exitoso de inclusión en el campo laboral de una persona con trastorno del espectro autista [TEA] por medio del acompañamiento dado en el lugar de trabajo. Está enmarcado bajo una metodología cualitativa, con un diseño de estudio de caso relatado desde la experiencia de una compañera de trabajo. La selección de la muestra fue por conveniencia, ya que se dio en un contexto específico donde la Universidad de Costa Rica contrató a una persona pianista de 38 años con diagnóstico TEA, que desempeña un rol de pianista acompañante en los cursos de Canto Complementario. La obtención de información se hizo por medio de la recolección de documentos, entrevistas estructuradas a la mamá, a un exprofesor de música y una persona perteneciente al equipo de PROEMDIS, además de observaciones con participación completa. Los datos obtenidos se categorizaron en cinco criterios temáticos para su análisis: apoyo de la familia durante la infancia, primeros pasos como estudiante de piano en la edad escolar, retos en el ambiente laboral, tipos de apoyo laboral, evolución del proceso de inclusión. Se concluye que abordar el proceso de Oscar con una perspectiva a largo plazo dio como resultado pequeños avances continuos que armaron un cambio positivo en el tiempo. La confianza alcanzada en Oscar en el proceso de estos cuatro años exhibió una favorable modulación de sus emociones, reacciones ante lo nuevo, control de impulsos y conductas disfuncionales, lo cual abrió paso a nuevos contactos y ambientes sociales. Se insta a las entidades empleadoras a crear un ambiente adaptado a sus empleados y empleadas con TEA, para que así logren permanecer en el lugar de trabajo y puedan aspirar a una estabilidad laboral, una mejora en los ingresos que les empodere y motive, con la posibilidad de abrir una brecha hacia una mejor calidad de vida.

Published: July 2023

La filosofía en las escuelas es considerada una asignatura de alto impacto para el fortalecimiento de habilidades de pensamiento crítico y reflexivo. No obstante, aunque se reconozca su valor, también se ha cuestionado sobre su utilidad en el currículo educativo siendo un tema latente en la escena educativa actual. Esta investigación tiene como objetivo conocer las percepciones y miradas del estudiantado de la ciudad de Barranquilla (Colombia) con respecto a la forma en que se enseña filosofía en las aulas y sus consideraciones sobre la utilidad del saber filosófico, según las metodologías de enseñanza. Se utilizó el enfoque cualitativo, diseño etnográfico y tipo descriptivo, por medio de la entrevista semiestructurada, para conocer el testimonio de 20 personas estudiantes pertenecientes a 10 instituciones educativas oficiales de la ciudad de Barranquilla en el año 2022. Los resultados dan cuenta de que el estudiantado consideran el saber filosófico como inútil, debido a las metodologías de enseñanza tradicionalistas basadas en el aprendizaje memorístico, la falta de espacios de reflexión, el dogmatismo académico y la falta de formación docente para ofrecer conocimientos sobre filosofía. Por esto, se hace necesario fomentar la participación del alumnado a partir de espacios de discusión y reflexión con respecto a la aplicabilidad de los contenidos filosóficos en la cotidianidad estudiantil.

This will be achieved by employing a high-performance super plasticizing admixture that significantly enhances polymer-modified concrete mechanical capabilities. The study indicates that the polymer styrene-butadiene rubber (used increases concrete mechanical properties by 10% by weight. When the dosage exceeds 10% by weight of cement, the compressive, tensile, and flexural strengths of polymer-modified concrete are diminished. With the addition of a superplasticizer with a ratio of 1.2%, regular polymer-modified concrete compressive strength has increased from 34.3 to 42.9 MPa for a 10% polymer/cement ratio. Additionally, this superplasticizer enhanced the Material's flexural and tensile strength.

Bevezetés: Magyarországon a legtöbb országgal ellentétben a
COVID–19-pandémia első két évében emelkedés volt tapasztalható a befejezett
öngyilkosságok tekintetében az előző évek csökkenő tendenciájához képest. Az
elkövetett violens öngyilkossági kísérletek száma prediktív erővel bír a
befejezett öngyilkosságok tekintetében. Célkitűzés: A 2016 és
2021 között violens öngyilkossági kísérlet miatt a Dr. Manninger Jenő Baleseti
Központban ellátott betegek számának változását elemeztük, kiemelten fókuszálva
a pandémia első két éve alatt tapasztalt változásokra. Módszer:
A megszakított idősorok elemzésének (interrupted time-series analysis) módszerét
alkalmaztuk, Prais–Winsten-regresszió segítségével, kontrollálva az
autoregresszív hatás mellett az idő- és a szezonális hatásokat is, hogy
megbecsüljük a pandémia hatását az elkövetett violens öngyilkossági kísérletek
tekintetében az általunk vizsgált mintán. Eredmények: A
pandémia első két évében emelkedett a violens öngyilkossági kísérlet miatt
ellátott betegek száma a Dr. Manninger Jenő Baleseti Központban. 2020-ban
szignifikáns emelkedés figyelhető meg az előző évekhez képest, amelyet 2021-ben
csökkenő tendencia követett. Megbeszélés és következtetés: Hat
év (2016–2021) violens öngyilkossági kísérleti adatait összevetve, a pandémia
első két éve alatt emelkedés volt tapasztalható az előző évek csökkenő

Children raised by single parents often face more difficulties in family relationships than children raised in intact families. Single parents frequently struggle to balance work and parental responsibilities. Ernest Prakasa’s film Susah Sinyal attempts to raise awareness of the phenomenon of single parenthood by depicting the relationship and struggles of a single mother and her daughter. The objectives of this study were to (1) examine how the audience interprets the representation of single parents in films, and (2) investigate how this representation influences the audience’s understanding of single-parent life in the real world. This study included five children raised by single parents. This is a descriptive study that is divided into two stages using the reception analysis method. The first step is to perform content analysis or encoding. The second stage is decoding, which includes a Focused Group Discussion (FGD). The findings indicate that the representation of single parents in the film has various meanings for the audience. They felt that the film accurately represented their point of view while others said no. This film does not provide many new ideas or alternative perspectives on single-parent family life. Furthermore, the message conveyed in this film could be a reflection of Indonesian society.

Published: July 2023

This research aims to analize determine the ceramic trade in Jambi through the Batu Bom Port which then the Ceramic Trade began to occur in the Sitimang Market and the impact of the ceramic trading activities in the Sitimang Jambi Market. Some of the problems raised are the beginning of the formation of the ceramic market in Jambi and the ceramic trade in Jambi after the closure of the Batu Bom Port. This research uses historical research methods. The findings of this study were the emergence of the ceramic market in Sitimang begins with a port that carries various commodities. Ceramics is one of the commodities brought by the ship and the existence of ship loading and unloading needs causes the Batu Bom Port area to emerge markets for shipping needs or sell products from outside vessels. However the Batu Bom Port was finally moved which caused ceramic traders to look for other ceramic trading centers such as Jakarta and Batam.

Abad ke-20, kesehatan masyarakat Jawa mulai menunjukkan perubahan. Tingkat mortalitas penduduk di Jawa akibat penyakit dan wabah mulai berkurang. Salah satunya adalah peran dari pelayanan farrmasi sebagai langkah kuratif maupun preventif dari pemerintah. Apotek adalah tempat pelayanan farmasi. Tulisan ini menjelaskan perkembangan apotek sebagai sebuah instansi kesehatan di Jawa yang dijelaskan menggunakan metode sejarah. Tahapan metode sejarah dilakukand engan empat tahap, yakni heuristik, kritik, interpretasi dan historiografi. Sumber yang digunakan untuk menjelaskan hal tersebut adalah majalah farmasi, pharmaceutische tijdschrift voor nederlandsch indie, buku sejaman, serta sumber yang didapatkan dari informasi elektronik melalui laman delpher.nl serta kitlv.nl.  Berdasarkan hasil penulusuran sumber dan hasil kritik serta interpretasi menunjukkan bahwa apotek merupakan salah satu fasilitas untuk penunjang kesehatan masyarakat di Jawa. Apotek berkembang di Jawa sejak adanya peraturan pemerintah staadblad No. 97 Tahun 1882. Apotek dikembangkan oleh apoteker Belanda dengan menyediakan obat kimia yang dapat dikonsumsi oleh masyarakat. Tidak lupa, apotek menggunakan majalah, Koran untuk promosi serta propaganda terhadap masyarakat dalam mengkonsumsi  obat-obatan kimia. Oleh karena itu, apotek menjadi garda terdepan pertukaran budaya kesehatan modern dalam masyarakat Jawa.

Published: July 2023

Background: Treatment of skin allergic diseases remains a challenging research topic.
Objective: To investigate the effect of Kushen recipe extractive (KS) gel on contact dermatitis (CD) of mouse.
Methods: Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) model of mouse was established. Immunohistochemical method (ICH) and flow cytometry method (FCM) were used to detect CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes and explore the regulation effect of KS on the immune status of the organism. The expression status of eotaxin tissue was evaluated by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), ICH, and western blotting method. The survival rates of HaCaT cell and Fibroblasts affected by KS were detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) method. The inhibitory effect of KS on eotaxin produced by HaCaT cell and FBs induced by TNF-α and interleukin (IL)-4 were evaluated using RT-PCR and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay methods. The inhibitory effect of KS on nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and Signal transducers and activators of transcription 6 (STAT6) activation induced by TNF-α and IL-4 was detected by electrophoretic mobility shift assay and western blotting methods.
Results: We confirmed that KS shows favorable therapeutic effect on CD, which can obviously inhibit eotaxin expression and Eosinophils recruitment in allergic skin of mouse, as well as regulate the immune status of the organism. Furthermore, KS and its main effective components can inhibit TNF-α and IL-4 induced upregulation of eotaxin via the two signal transduction pathways, NF-κB and STAT6.
Conclusions: The great importance of traditional Chinese recipe KS is evidenced by its therapeutic effect and mechanism in ACD of mouse.
FoxO4 mediates macrophage M2 polarization by promoting LXA4R expression in an ovalbumin-induced allergic asthma model in mice
Authors: Yu Tong , Yu Yiping , Ma Yingyu , Chen Guoqing
Published: July 2023

Background: Asthma imposes a heavy burden due to its high prevalence. Forkhead box O4 (FoxO4) proteins participate in the modulation of cell progression. However, the role and mechanism of FoxO4 in asthma remains uncharted.
Methods: An allergic asthma model was constructed by the induction of ovalbumin and interleukin (IL)-4 in mice and monocyte/macrophage-like Raw264.7 cells, respectively. The role and mechanism of FoxO4 in asthma was determined by pathological staining, immunofluorescence assay, measurement of inflammatory cells in the blood, reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), Western blot analysis, and flow cytometry.
Results: Ovalbumin treatment triggered an obvious inflammatory cell infiltration with a prominent increase in F4/80+ cell numbers. The relative messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein expressions of FoxO4 were increased in both ovalbumin-induced mice and interleukin-4 (IL-4)-induced Raw264.7 cells. Inhibition of FoxO4 via AS1842856 reduced inflammatory cell infiltration, the number of Periodic Acid Schiff+ (PAS+) goblet cells, the numbers of inflammatory cells in the blood, and the airway resistance in ovalbumin-induced mice. Besides, interference of FoxO4 decreased the number of F4/80+CD206+ cells, and the relative protein expressions of CD163 and Arg1 in vivo and in vitro. Mechanically, suppression of FoxO4 diminished the relative mRNA and protein expressions of LXA4R in both ovalbumin-induced mice and IL-4-induced Raw264.7 cells. Overexpression of LXA4R reversed the outcomes caused by repression of FoxO4, including airway resistance, the number of F4/80+ cells, the proportion of CD206+ cells in ovalbumin-induced mice, and the proportion of F4/80+CD206+ cells in IL-4-induced Raw264.7 cells.
Conclusion: FoxO4/LXA4R axis mediated macrophage M2 polarization in allergic asthma.
