Published: January 2022

A Floresta Ombrófila Mista (FOM), fitofisionomia da Mata Atlântica (MA), vem sofrendo redução de sua área original a pequenos fragmentos florestais, o que promove impactos na biodiversidade e no ambiente. As nascentes de água existentes nesses fragmentos desempenham papel crucial para a manutenção dos serviços ecossistêmicos prestados por esse bioma, que fornecem os recursos hídricos necessários ao abastecimento de cidades. Dentre os organismos presentes nesses ecossistemas aquáticos destacam-se os macroinvertebrados bentônicos. O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar a estrutura da fauna destes organismos em duas nascentes, uma superficial e uma subterrânea, ambas localizadas em fragmentos de FOM. O sedimento foi coletado por meio do amostrador Surber e os organismos foram identificados até o menor nível taxonômico possível. Posteriormente, foram realizados cálculos dos índices ecológicos e uma análise de rede para as comunidades. Os resultados demonstraram que a nascente subterrânea apresentou maior abundância com 232 organismos coletados, onde Elmidae (51%), Chironomidae (29%) e Calamoceratidae (10%) foram os táxons mais frequentes. Porém, a nascente superficial obteve maior valor de diversidade, e os táxons mais frequentes foram Chironomidae (39%), Elmidae (15%) e Polycentropodidae (10%). Os táxons Oligochaeta, Elmidae, Parametriocnemus, Stenochironomus, Endotribelus, Caladomyia e Tipulidae foram compartilhados por ambas as nascentes. Conclui-se que mesmo pertencendo a fragmentos florestais preservados e de um mesmo bioma, a localização física da nascente (superficial ou subterrânea) faz com que os organismos habitantes sejam diversos. Isso demonstra que a heterogeneidade de habitats e as condições ambientais distintas interferem na estrutura da comunidade bentônica existente em nascentes.

Rice Farming Technical Efficiency Using Certified Seeds in Indramayu Regency. Production inputs used in rice farming can affect crop yields. Yields can be increased through technical efficiency or production efficiency approaches. Technical efficiency is defined as an effort to increase the maximum output from the use of a certain number of inputs or technology. This study aims to analyze the technical efficiency and determinants of technical inefficiency in rice farming using certified seeds in Indramayu Regency. The data collected were in the form of production inputs and farmer characteristics from several farmers whose rice farming used certified seeds in Jatibarang, Bangodua, Widasari and Cikedung Districts with a total sample of 84 respondents. Technical efficiency and determinants of technical inefficiency were analyzed using the Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) approach. The results of the analysis show that rice farming using certified seeds in Indramayu Regency is technically efficient with an average technical efficiency value of 0.93. Production inputs that affect technical efficiency include land, seeds, nitrogen nutrients, phosphate nutrients, potassium and pesticides. Land, seeds, phosphate and potassium nutrients significantly affect technical efficiency at the 1% real level, while nitrogen and pesticide nutrients have a significant effect on technical efficiency at the 5% real level. Variables that affect technical inefficiency include age and experience of farmers. Farmer’s age has an effect on technical inefficiency at the real level of 5%, while farmer’s experience has a significant effect on technical inefficiency at the real level of 10%. The conclusion is that rice farming using certified seeds in Indramayu Regency is technically efficient.

Authors: Darmawati Emmy , Bionille Florensius Labat
Published: January 2022

Anthracnose is a disease that attacks papaya fruit while in the field and continues until the fruit is harvested and distributed to the market. Biofungiside made from citronella and green betel was expected to extend the selling papaya at inhibiting the growth of anthracnose. The study was aimed to determine the appropriate concentration of extracts of citronella leaves (Cymbopogon nardus L.) and green betel leaves (Piper betle L.) in inhibiting the growth of C. gloeosporioides as a cause of anthracnose. The extraction was done by boiling the leaves. The test methods used were in vitro and in vivo tests. In vitro tests were carried out to test the effectiveness of citronella leaf extract with concentrations of 5%, 10%, and 10%, 20% concentrations of green betel leaf extract in inhibiting the growth of C. gloeosporioides. The results of the in vitro test showed a significant difference (á = 0.5%) between treatments with the highest effectiveness value being 10% citronella extract with 47.22% growth inhibition of C. gloeosporioides and an average colony diameter of 3.150 cm after 15 days of incubation. The results of the in vivo test, showed significantly different results (á = 0.5%) between papaya fruit soaked with 10% citronella extract and controls, both in the incidence and spread of the disease. The spread of disease in treated papaya fruit was 13.72% while control papaya fruit reached 68.49% at 6 days of storage. Citronella extract with a concentration of 10% can extend the selling time of Calinna papaya (80% maturity index) 6 days longer than the control.

To reduce dependence on imported soybeans, efforts are needed to maximize national soybean production and productivity through technological innovation. Soybean high yielding varieties are one of the easiest technologies to be adopted by farmers. The assessment aims to evaluate perceptions, attitudes and satisfaction of farmers with the attributes of superior soybean varieties. The assessment was carried out using a survey method of soybean farmers totaling 32 people in The Kebumen Regency. High yielding soybeans varieties studied is Grobogan, Anjasmoro and Gema varieties. Attributes evaluated are plant performance, yield, soybeans price selling, easier seeds to obtain, harvest age, the suitability of seed size to demand and pest resistance. Farmers’ perceptions were mapped using perceptual mapping, farmer attitudes were analyzed using the Fishbein Multiattribute Model and farmer satisfaction was analyzed using the Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI). The results of the study showed that farmers had better perceptions, attitudes and satisfaction towards Grobogan and Anjasmoro varieties compared to Gema variety. Grobogan and Anjasmoro varieties were perceived as more excellent because they had more attractive plant diversity, higher production, easier seeds to obtain and more resistance to pests-diseases. Farmers showed a more accepting attitude to cultivating Grobogan and Anjasmoro varieties with Fishbein Multiattribute scores of 45.63 and 43.93, while the Gema variety only scored 39.64. Farmers have a higher level of satisfaction with Grobogan and Anjasmoro variety with CSI values of 52.11% and 50.37% compared to the Gema variety of 44.66%.

Representation of Students with Special Educational Needs in Language Testing Research
Authors: Hallenbeck Taylor , Alqahtani Rashed
Published: January 2022

The presence of students identified as English Language Learners (ELL) and Special Education Students (SES) in mainstream settings is growing. However, representation of these populations within language testing research remains unknown. This is important because language testing scores are increasingly used to evaluate student learning, teacher quality, and school quality. This meta-synthesis examined the representation of these two exceptional populations within the mainstream language testing literature published in two language testing journals. This meta-synthesis utilized inductive analysis and descriptive statistics. Findings indicated highly skewed representations of ELL and SES within the research corpus of the reviewed journals. Further analysis of participant demographics, research settings, test formats and test modalities are reported and discussed. Results highlight critical needs for the fields of exceptional education regarding the language testing of ELL and SES populations. The paper closes with suggestions regarding such needed research.
Network monitoring and processing accuracy of big data acquisition based on mathematical model of fractional differential equation

Published: January 2022

Aiming at the lack of subjectivity of the network security situation assessment method and the complexity and non-linearity of data obtained through situational factors, a fuzzy neural network security situation which is optimised based on an improved gravitational search algorithm combined with fractional differential equation analysis, as an Evaluation model, is proposed. In order to quickly and accurately predict the situation value of the network security situation at that moment, a method for situation prediction of long-term and short-term memory networks based on an improved Nadam algorithm to optimise the online update mechanism is proposed. Note that the situation time series obtained from online assessment cannot be used in a better and efficient manner. The model can minimise the cost function and update the model more effectively by updating the model parameters online Prediction accuracy. In order to improve the problem of slow convergence speed during model network training, the Look-ahead method is used to improve Nesterov's adaptive gradient momentum estimation algorithm to accelerate the model's convergence. Finally, the simulation results analyse and compare the prediction model, which not only improves the convergence speed of the prediction model, but also greatly reduces the prediction error of the model.
The behavior of aesthetic restoration materials under extreme conditions: in vitro study.
Authors: Cerghedi Alessandra-Aniela , Melinda Székely , Cristina Molnar-Varlam
Published: January 2022

Introduction: Aesthetic materials for direct restorations can suffer changes in the oral cavity due to multiple factors acting at this level. The aim of the study was to demonstrate that aesthetic materials undergo structural changes in texture and chemicals, depending on the nature of the extrinsic factor, concentration, and exposure time. Material and methods: We used 3 types of composites, a self-polymerizing composite, two photo-polymerizing composites, and a glass ionomer. 210 teeth were initially immersed in artificial saliva as a control solution and afterwards immersed into artificial gastric juice, ethyl alcohol, energy drink, and distilled water. With the help of a pH meter, we determined the pH of the substances both before and after immersing the teeth in solutions. The teeth were monitored for 24-48 hours in a thermostat bath at 37 degrees Celsius, after which they were analyzed with the help of a rough meter that measures the smallest surface changes. Results: Significant changes in pH occurred in alcohol, where a considerable decrease was observed after 48h. Also, the alcohol produced the most aggressive changes of texture in the composites, and the smallest changes occured in the composite with nanofiller. The glass ionomer was the most affected of all the materials due to the exposure to both alcohol and artificial gastric juice, respectively energy drinks so that the surface analysis could not be performed. Conclusions: The results of the in vitro study are clinically important because the glass ionomer is much too rotten in these extreme situations. Thus, its use is not recommended both in patients with gastroesophageal reflux as well as in alcoholics and persons consuming energy drinks.
Entrepreneurs responding to the COVID-19 crisis: evidence from Ireland
Authors: Stephens Simon , McLaughlin Christopher , McLaughlin Katrina
Published: January 2022

The aim of this paper is to explore the impact that the initial stages of the COVID-19 crisis had on entrepreneurs. We present the experiences of fifteen entrepreneurs. The data was collected, using interviews. We focus on the impact that the temporary business closures which were introduced had on the entrepreneurs’ ability and propensity to continue. The interviews took place during a period of great uncertainty for the entrepreneurs and at times when their availability was extremely limited. We present data characterising the entrepreneurs; their experience during a time of crisis; and the enablers and disablers to the continuation of their entrepreneurial journey. Our analysis is based on four themes from the literature: the psychological wellbeing of the entrepreneurs; their changing attitudes to entrepreneurship; the changes they made to their business; and the supports that they needed. The outcome is novel insights into the impacts of the COVID-19 crisis.

Published: January 2022

This study investigates the corruption formation process in Iranian football. Data was collected using library studies as well as 18 in-depth and semi-structured interviews with football industry stakeholders. The research data were analyzed through the coding process in three stages: open, pivotal and selective. Grounded Theory was used to determine the initial list of corruption causes. Then, interpretive structural modeling and MICMAC analysis were utilized. Having analyzed the data, the researchers classified the variables into four different levels, and after MICMAC analysis, we divided the variables into two groups of independent and dependent variables. None of the variables were included in the group of autonomous and linkage variables. The results showed that at the highest level, corrupt governance of football (including weak football federation statutes, government control of football, and weak governance in football) was the most influential factor. At the third level, the key factor was structural dysfunction which was underpinned by both weak management and supervision in football. At the second level, defective agreements and monitoring (consisting of weak rules and regulations and inefficient national and club contracts) was significant. At the first level, financial dysfunction (including money laundering and economic and financial factors), bias and opportunism (by journalists and agents), and corruption of human resources (comprising coercion and nurturing corrupt forces) were influential. The findings showed that the managerial level has a major role in preventing corruption.
Effect of Customer Experience Quality on Loyalty in Fitness Services
Authors: Eskiler Ersin , Safak Furkan
Published: January 2022

Customer experience quality is an important and relatively new concept for service businesses in gaining a sustainable competitive advantage. Although the literature on customer experience quality is expanding, there is a gap concerning the antecedent and consequences of customer experience in fitness services. In this context, we tested a model that explains the precursors and implications of customer experience quality in the context of fitness services. This study was based on a non-experimental, depictive, and descriptive design. Within the scope of this study, 287 participants (216 male, 71 female) selected through a convenience sampling technique applied a self-administered questionnaire. Data were analyzed through confirmatory factor analysis and a structural equation model. The findings show that service result quality, customer–employee interaction quality, and customer–customer interaction quality affect customer experience quality, which in turn affects customer loyalty. These results show that improving the service outcome quality results in customers who experience high-quality customer–employee and customer–customer interactions becoming loyal customers.

Authors: Cortés Pedro , Harris Dana M , Bi Yan
Published: January 2022

Celiac disease is an immune-mediated illness to gluten exposure in genetically susceptible patients. It is characterized by chronic lymphocytic inflammation of the small bowel leading to villous atrophy and its associated complications. The global prevalence of celiac disease is increasing, due in part to improved screening tests and simplified diagnostic criteria. Novel therapies are being developed and include proteolytic enzymes, sequestering agents, and immunotherapies. A strict gluten-free diet, however, remains the mainstay of treatment. In this comprehensive review, we discuss the epidemiology, definitions, diagnosis, and treatment of celiac disease.

Authors: Manevska Nevena , Jankulovska Anamarija , Stefanovski Dusica Todorova , Makazlieva Tanja , Stojanoski Sinisa
Published: January 2022

Background:

The coexistence of metabolic bone disease, such as Paget disease (PD) and malignant tumor is frequently described in patients with breast, prostate, lung, lymphoproliferative, colorectal, and renal neoplasms. Indeed, when evaluating cancer patients, there may be diagnostic dilemma of interpreting some changes in bone involvement, whether they are malignant or metabolic changes, since some radiological features of metabolic bone disease can mimic those of bone metastases.

Case Presentation:

We report a case of 55-year-old male patient, with diagnosed lung adenocarcinoma, referred to the Nuclear Medicine Department for a bone scintigraphy (BS), for evaluation of presented bone metastasis. The Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/computer tomography (CT) scan revealed intensive metabolic accumulation of the radiotracer in cervical vertebra C7, and thoracic vertebra Th1, Th6, Th11, Th12, as well as lumbar vertebra L4, L5, left sacroiliac joint, both iliac and pubic bones and left proximal femur. The FDG PET/CT showed diffuse, but mildly increased uptake in Th6, Th11, L4, L5 and pelvic bones (SUV max = 3.3). The CT revealed destruction of Th11 body with compression fracture. Diagnosis of PD was made based on the findings of BS and PET/CT and further confirmed on bone biopsy and the patient was started with bisphosphonate therapy.

Conclusion:

BS and SPECT/CT are of great importance in accurate detection of incidental PD in patients with lung cancer.

Published: January 2022

A comparative wood anatomical study of six species of the genus Acacia commonly found in Nigeria was carried out. Wood samples were collected from matured branches of plants in different locations in Mazah and Shere Hills, Jos, Plateau State, Nigeria. Transverse, tangential and radial longitudinal sections as well as wood macerates were prepared and mounted unto microscopic slides using standard anatomical methods. All the species had diffused porous wood, heterogeneous rays, aseptate fibres and predominantly solitary vessels with simple perforation plate, few pore clusters and pore multiples. Banded paratracheal axial parenchyma was common in all taxa except in A. senegal which was predominantly paratracheal without bands. Multiseriate rays were common features in all taxa except in A. nilotica which had predominantly uniseriate rays. Quantitative wood anatomical characters such as fibre length, fibre diameter, fibre lumen diameter, fibre wall thickness, vessel length, vessel diameter, ray length, ray diameter and pore diameter were of taxonomic importance in the delimitation of the studied taxa. The Runkel ratio of A. senegal (0.99µm) compared favourably with some hardwood species in the Nigerian rainforest ecosystem hence this taxon could be exploited for pulp and paper in Nigeria.
