Published: August 2023

Abstract. On 22 October 2019, the Francolí river basin in Catalonia, north-eastern Spain, experienced a heavy precipitation event that resulted in a catastrophic flash flood, causing six fatalities. Firstly, this study investigates the hydrometeorological factors that concurred in the unfolding of this event by using large-scale meteorological grid analyses, high-resolution mesoscale model simulations, radar-derived precipitation estimates, post-flood field observations and hydrological modelling. Mesoscale diagnosis reveals that a persistent south-easterly airflow brought low level moisture and established convective instability over the region, while local orography was instrumental to trigger moist deep convection. A convective train promoted intense, copious and prolonged precipitation over the north-western catchment headwaters. Basin response was significantly modulated by the very dry initial soil moisture conditions. After the long-lasting rainfall, an acute burst of precipitation resulted in extreme flash flooding. Fast and abrupt increases in river flow lead to short times for protection procedures to be implemented effectively. Secondly, this study collects the social response times during the event and compares them with catchment dynamics. The idea is to examine the adequacy of monitoring and warning issuance in meeting the needs of the population at risk. Based on this information, the study provides recommendations aimed at minimizing losses and improving preparedness for similar natural hazards in the future.

Published: August 2023

Tilapia is one type of freshwater fish that has a lot of demand in the market. Therefore, the production of tilapia aquaculture is increasing. Increased production of aquaculture causes a decrease in water quality due to the large number of metabolic wastes. Fish farmers usually require a large amount of money to overcome the decline in the quality of aquaculture pond water. For this reason, it is necessary to apply techniques to improve the quality of aquaculture pond water at an affordable cost. Azolla sp and Ipoemea aquatica are plants that can absorb environmental contaminants. The research method used was experimental method with untreated pool water samples (control), pool water samples treated with kale (Treatment 1), pool water samples treated with Azolla sp. (Treatment 2) and pond water samples with the combination treatment of kale and Azolla sp. (Treatment 3). Ammonia levels in Tilapia pond water samples were statistically analyzed using the SPSS application. The results showed that kale and Azolla sp. tends to be effective in reducing ammonia levels in Tilapia rearing pond water. The water spinach treatment had a higher value in reducing ammonia levels in the sample water of the tilapia rearing pond, which was 5.99 compared to the Azolla sp. of 3.22 and the combination treatment of 5.95.

Fast retrieval of fMRI data for real-time applications: improving the transfer time through direct connection
Authors: Lührs Michael , Poser Benedikt A. , Auer Tibor , Goebel Rainer
Published: August 2023

One of the significant challenges in real-time fMRI environments is to ensure that the functional images are exported in real-time. The prerequired ability to reconstruct these images immediately after the acquisition has already been resolved in 2004. Nowadays, more sophisticated sequences allow for higher resolution and faster repetition times and thereby challenging the ability to export this data in real-time. In this article, we tackle the potentially arising problem of sending the reconstructed data from the MRI to an external PC to perform the real-time fMRI analysis. We show that depending on the implementation of the data transfer, long delays can occur that can differ drastically in time and how often they occur. In addition, we propose a solution for SIEMENS MRI devices which was tested and applied already on multiple MRI devices including 3T and 7T machines on different vendor software versions. This new technique can be used as a blueprint that can be directly applied to other manufacturers. We also provide the source code of the described solution and show that the delay in the data transfer can be significantly reduced to a tolerable level using our proposed procedure. Finally, we integrate measurement options for the data transfer times to improve quality measures in (clinical) real-time fMRI environments that can implement the proposed solution. Efforts should be taken by the real-time fMRI community and MRI manufacturers to employ a standardized real-time export e.g., similar to the lab streaming layer which is used as a standard export method in EEG environments.
Improving the Interpretability of fMRI Decoding Using Deep Neural Networks and Adversarial Robustness

Published: August 2023

Deep neural networks (DNNs) are being increasingly used to make predictions from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data. However, they are widely seen as uninterpretable “black boxes,” as it can be difficult to discover what input information is

used by the DNN in the process, something important in both cognitive neuroscience and clinical applications. A saliency map is a common approach for producing interpretable visualizations of the relative importance of input features for a prediction. However, methods for creating maps often fail due to DNNs being sensitive to input noise or by focusing too much on the input and too little on the model. It is also challenging to evaluate how well saliency maps correspond to the truly relevant input information, as ground truth is not always available. In this paper, we review a variety of methods for producing gradient-based saliency maps and present an adversarial training method we developed to make DNNs robust to input noise, with the goal of improving the quality of DNN saliency maps. We introduce two quantitative evaluation procedures for saliency map methods in fMRI, applicable whenever a DNN or linear model is being trained to decode some information from imaging data. We evaluate the procedures using synthetic data sets, where the complex activation structure is known, and on fMRI data from the Human Connectome Project using saliency maps produced for linear models and DNNs doing task decoding in both settings. Our key finding is that saliency maps produced with different methods vary widely in quality in both synthetic and Human Connectome Project fMRI data, even when those methods have similar prediction performance. We found that training both linear and non-linear models using adversarial noise increased the quality of their saliency maps. We also found that, while some linear models generate good saliency maps in the highly controlled, synthetic data, non-linear DNN methods generate better saliency maps in real-world fMRI data. Finally, our experiments give evidence that combining adversarial training with a complex, non-linear model can improve saliency map quality

when compared to several methods commonly used in the literature.

Usaha Mikro, Kecil dan Menengah (UMKM) merupakan usaha perdagangan yang dikelola oleh badan usaha atau perorangan yang merujuk pada usaha ekonomi produktif sesuai dengan kriteria yang ditetapkan oleh Undang-Undang Nomor 20 Tahun 2008. UMKM mempunyai peran yang strategis dalam pembangunan ekonomi nasional serta penyokong perekonomian di Indonesia khususnya pada masyarakat golongan bawah dan menengah. UMKM memiliki peran strategis dalam upaya pemerintah dalam mengatasi kemiskinan dan pengangguran, karena UMKM dapat menyerap tenaga kerja sehingga pengangguran akibat tidak terserapnya angkatan kerja dalam dunia kerja menjadi berkurang. Pandemi Covid-19 yang terjadi melanda seluruh dunia, secara global termasuk Indonesia, tentu saja berdampak terhadap berbagai sektor terutama di sektor ekonomi. Pemerintah di berbagai negara memberlakukan social distancing, physical distancing, bahkan me-lockdown negaranya. Indonesia melakukan hal yang sama dengan istilah Pembatasan Sosial Berskala Besar (PSBB) sebagai pencegahan meningkatnya penyebaran COVID-19. Tantangan terberat pelaku UMKM di masa pandemi Covid 19 adalah adanya perubahan mengakses pasar karena terbatasnya tatap muka secara langsung dan UMKM kurang memiliki ketahanan dan fleksibilitas dalam menghadapi pandemi COVID-19 ini dikarenakan optimalisasi peran digital yang masih rendah sehingga membuat pelaku UMKM kesulitan dalam mengakses teknologi dan kurang dalam memahami strategi apa saja yang dapat dilakukan agar dapat bertahan dalam bisnis dengan demikian diperlukan peran digital untuk menguatkan UMKM di masa pandemic COVID 19.

Authors: Haris M. Syauqi , Anshori Mochammad , Khudori Ahsanun Naseh
Published: August 2023

Stunting or cases of failure to thrive in toddlers is one of the most serious health problems faced by the people of Indonesia. Based on data from the Ministry of Health and the Central Statistics Agency, East Java Province has a stunting prevalence value of 26.8% which is categorized as a high prevalence value according to the standards of the World Health Organization (WHO). Random forest is one of the machine learning algorithms in the field of artificial intelligence that can learn patterns from labeled data so that it can be used as a method for predicting or forecasting data. This approach is considered very suitable to be used in predicting the value of stunting prevalence because stunting prevalence data is usually accompanied by other data in the health sector according to survey results. Previous studies on the prediction of stunting prevalence used secondary data sourced from one survey only. Therefore, this study is one of the efforts to contribute in providing solutions for the stunting problem in East Java Province by combining several data from different surveys in the same year. The results of this study show that from 20 factor candidates for predicting stunting prevalence value, only 12 factors are suspected to be causative factors based on their correlation value. However, the prediction results obtained using the random forest algorithm in this study, with data consisting of 12 features and a dataset consisting of only 38 data, have results with error values of 1.02 in MAE and 1.64 in MSE that are not better than multi-linear regression which can produce smaller error values of 0.93 in MAE and 1.34 in MSE.

No presente artigo, buscamos analisar o romance “Salvar el fuego”, do escritor Guillermo Arriaga, sobre a ótica da sociologia do romance e considerando a obra como um exemplar do romance da violência, observando correlações entre forma da narrativa e a complexidade do fenômeno social. O romance se passa no México dos anos 2020 e traz diferentes narrativas sobre a violência e as desigualdades neste país. Interessa ainda analisar os personagens principais – Marina Longines, José Cauthemoc e Francisco Cuitláhuac – enquanto heróis problemáticos, a importância da literatura, da dança e do amor em meio ao contexto carcerário, bem como a possibilidade de redenção aos personagens.
José do Telhado, cantado e decantado em obras literárias

Neste texto, reflito sobre as representações realizadas, por meio de romancistas, sobre um bandido-herói português, José Teixeira da Silva, conhecido como José do Telhado, que viveu no século XIX, na região do Distrito do Porto, Portugal. José do Telhado comandou uma quadrilha de salteadores que tinha como aspectos importantes evitar “o uso da violência física”, fazer uma classificação moral das suas possíveis vítimas, bem como, o fato de “roubar dos ricos para distribuir com os pobres”. A máxima difundida é a de que ele perseguia uma moral, procurava uma honra, tendo como corolário ou contraposição o estabelecimento de uma “justiça popular”. Camilo Castelo Branco, celebrado romancista de Portugal notabilizou José do Telhado, germinando um salteador ilustre, de renome e célebre, dando asas à imaginação popular. Foi classificado por alguns romancistas, que se dedicaram a esse tema, como o maior salteador/bandido do século XIX, de Portugal, tendo sido degredado, para a África. Na trajetória dele, nos romances, esse personagem é enaltecido pelos valores de bondade, altruísmo, resiliência e em razão de um comportamento íntegro.

A efetividade da união entre a estrutura metálica e a base acrílica de uma PPR (Prótese Parcial Removível) é fundamental para se evitar microinfiltração (descoloração ou fratura na linha de acabamento da resina), o que compromete a longevidade da prótese. O objetivo dessa revisão sistemática foi identificar qual o tratamento da superfície do metal aumenta a resistência de união entre as ligas metálicas e resina acrílica em PPR. Foi realizada de acordo o PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyzes) e registrada no PROSPERO  (International Prospective Registry of Systematic Reviews) (CRD42022384926). Uma busca eletrônica foi realizada, por 3 examinadores nas bases de dados: Medline-PubMed®, Scopus e Web of Science, e na literatura cinzenta (ProQuest), sem restrição de período de publicação. A busca eletrônica resultou em 4.143 artigos e após aremoção das duplicatas e leitura de títulos e resumos, 37 artigos foram avaliados na íntegra, resultando em 6 artigos. Todos os estudos avaliaram materiais para base acrílica (termopolimerizável) unido ao metal (ligas de Cobalto-Cromo e Titânio). Dentre os tratamentos de superfície do metal, estão: (1) jateamento com partículas de óxido de alumínio (50μm, 250μm e 110μm) seguido do primer e (2) primer. Conclui-se que o jateamento do metal com partículas de óxido de alumínio seguido da aplicaçãodo primer à base de MDP, aumenta a resistência de união aos materiais de base de prótese termopolimerizável.

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to estimate the average individual effect of the company-level Norwegian Agreement on a More Inclusive Working Life (IA Agreement) on individuals’ (i) sustained return to work after a sickness absence (SA) episode, and (ii) recurrent SA.

METHODS: Using register data, 79 253 men and 94 914 women born in Norway 1967–1976 were followed for one year between 2005 and 2010 after returning to work from an SA episode (>16 days). Weighted Cox proportional hazard models analysed time to first exit from work by companies’ IA status (IA/non-IA). Weighted cumulative incidence differences between IA and non-IA groups with 95% bootstrapped confidence intervals (CI) were calculated for the competing events of full SA, graded (<100%) SA, unemployment/economic inactivity, education, disability pension, and death/emigration. Stabilised inverse probability of treatment weights balanced IA/non-IA groups according to nine covariates. Analyses were stratified by gender, and separately for two initial SA diagnoses (musculoskeletal and psychological).

RESULTS: Both men [adjusted hazard ratio (HR) 0.96, 95% CI 0.93–0.99] and women (adjusted HR 0.97, 95% CI 0.94–0.99) in IA companies were less likely to exit work in the year following SA. Similar findings were seen among individuals with musculoskeletal diagnoses and women with psychological diagnoses. Men with psychological diagnoses were more likely to exit work. Recurrent full and graded SA were more likely, and unemployment/economic inactivity less likely, in IA companies. However, the estimated effects were small and the CI often included the null.

CONCLUSIONS: Individuals working in IA companies were more likely to remain in work. This was mainly due to reduced unemployment/economic inactivity, suggesting the IA Agreement may have influenced work participation through other means than reduced SA.

Even though modern medicinal system is well developed and easily accessible, the rural people still continues to depend upon traditional medicinal system for curing various ailments. Several cases of fast recovery and many cases of death due to wrong treatment was observed during the year 2018-19 in rural villages of Nagaon district of Assam, India. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of some medicinal plants and their formulations used by traditional healer for treatment of gastrointestinal disorders. The information was collected by interaction with the traditional healers and altogether 14 plant species were documented for preparation of six different formulations. Antibacterial evaluation against E. coli, P. aeruginosa and S. aureus revealed that formulation prepared from freshly prepared plant materials showed better efficacy than formulations obtained from traditional healers. Again, organic solvents extracts showed greater antibacterial activity than the aqueous extracts. Amongst the solvents, the polar organic solvent methanol showed greater inhibitory effect as compared to other non polar organic solvents, ethanol and hexane. GC-MS analysis of the potent plant extracts showed presence of several bioactive compounds like tumerone, curlone, hexadecanoic acid, oleic acid, eicosanoic acid, erucic acid and isopimaric acid which have earlier reports of having significant antibacterial activities.

Number of secondary compounds is produced by plants as natural antioxidants. The current study's goal was to identify the phytochemical components, thin-layer chromatographic profile, total phenol, and total flavonoid content in the leaves of Pongamia pinnata and Oroxylum indicum (O. indicum) (P. pinnata). The well-known test protocol described in the literature was used to determine the qualitative analysis of different phytochemical constituents, thin-layer chromatography, and quantitative analysis of total phenolics and flavonoids. By using the Folins Ciocalteau reagent method and the aluminium chloride method, respectively, phenolic and flavonoid quantities were analysed quantitatively. Both plants contained glycosides, flavonoids, diterpenes, phenol, proteins, saponins, and carbohydrates, according to a phytochemical analysis. Studies using thin-layer chromatography and various solvent systems revealed homogeneous spots with various Rf values. According to the findings of the current study, O. indicum and P. pinnata crude extracts are a rich source of secondary phytoconstituents that have significant antioxidant potential. The pharmaceutical industries, pharmacologists, and phytochemists will all benefit from the study's findings.
