Authors: SADA MARYAM MUSA
Published: August 2024

This study evaluated the impact of product delivery system on availability of petroleum product in Nigeria. This study covered the relevant stakeholders which included oil workers and downstream agencies within the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). Primary data was adopted using a questionnaire distributed to 374 participants. In achieving this, this study used the discrete choice model which is the multinomial logit model. The results from the analysis of the primary data reveal that 224 (59.9%) of the participants agreed that ruptured pipes affected the time and duration of products getting to consumers while 150 (40.1%) objected to this. 290 respondents (77.5%) believe that there are not enough pipeline networks in Nigeria. Also, 365 respondents (97.6%) also agreed that functioning refineries will positively affect the transportation of petroleum products through pipeline transport mode. The study recommended that the Nigerian Government should revalidate and intensify policy and project to improve and strengthen the petroleum pipeline transportation system, enhancing product distribution and ease of doing business; Focus on upgrading pipeline technology to meet international standards and global best practices, ensuring timely delivery and reducing time and resource wastage; construct more petroleum pipeline networks to link terminals in commercial cities and factory locations, reducing delivery inefficiency and production costs; implementing policy measures to combat oil theft, pipeline vandalism, and ruptures, minimizing production costs and enabling the removal of product consumption and subsidies.

Authors: Wittmann Erich Christian
Published: August 2024

Dieses Handbuch für den Mathematikunterricht der Sekundarstufe ("Handbuch S") setzt das mit Gerhard N. Müller verfasste "Handbuch produktiver Rechenübungen" für die Grundschule ("Handbuch G") fort. Ausdrückliches Ziel ist es, einen nahtlosen Übergang des Mathematiklernens von der Grundschule in die Sekundarstufe zu gewährleisten. Aus der stufenübergreifenden Sicht des Mathematikunterrichts ergeben sich auch neue curriculare Lösungen, z.B. die Behandlung der Dezimalzahlen vor der Bruchrechnung und die Behandlung der Prozentrechnung direkt im Anschluss an Dezimalzahlen (Band 1) sowie die Einführung der ganzen Zahlen und der Brüche auf der Grundlage der Rechengesetze in Form einer "Prä-Algebra" (Band 2). Wie das "Handbuch G" versteht sich auch das "Handbuch S" als Referenztext für eine professionelle Lehrerbildung in beiden Phasen und für die Praxis. Es vermittelt ein praktikables Konzept für eine fachlich fundierte, schlanke Unterrichtsvorbereitung ohne methodischen Schnickschnack. Nebenher fördert es auch die aktive Auseinandersetzung mit dem Fach und seinem Bildungswert. Mit dieser erweiterten Zielsetzung sollen ausdrücklich auch das professionelle Profil der Lehrpersonen und ihre fachliche Autorität gestärkt werden. Sowohl die Schüler als auch die Eltern haben dafür ein feines Gespür. Alle Veröffentlichungen im Projekt Mathe 2000 fußen auf einer langjährigen praxisnahen Entwicklungsforschung, die internationale Anerkennung genießt. Über das Projekt und die entwickelten Materialien, kann man sich unter www.Mathe2000.de informieren. Hans Freudenthal ist einer der fünf Erzväter des Projekts.

Published: August 2024

The interior design business is growing along with customers' increasing interest in ease of service. Increased competition drives the need for differentiation by integrating well-being and wellness into building design through the Wellness-Centric Approach. This research aims to identify customer needs and preferences related to interest in well-being and wellness in building design. Involving observations from consultants, literature reviews, and surveys, the findings present an analysis of the industry, market forces, and key trends. Awareness of well-being and wellness in building design is increasing, although it is not yet aligned with the psychological aspects. Competition, consumer preferences, technology, and regulations affect service quality and pricing. The lack of wellness-focused consultants and technological knowledge, as well as government regulations, also play an important role. Key trends in wellness design include air quality, technology, color, eco-friendly materials, natural elements, and health representation, opening up competitive opportunities for well-being and wellness design. Opportunities arise from increased real estate investment and shifting consumer preferences due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Published: August 2024

Variabilitas respon obat antar pasien merupakan salah satu penyebab morbiditas dan mortalitas pada pasien. Sebagian pasien dapat mengalami adverse drug reaction (ADR) maupun efek subterapeutik pada pemberian obat. Terdapat beberapa faktor yang berkontribusi terhadap hal tersebut, salah satunya adalah variabilitas genetik antar individu. Variabilitas genetik tersebut mendorong perkembangan ilmu farmakogenomik saat ini. Farmakogenomik adalah ilmu yang mempelajari bagaimana gen memengaruhi respon individu terhadap obat. Tujuan dikembangkannya farmakogenomik adalah untuk menghasilkan pengobatan yang lebih optimal. Beberapa gen telah dibuktikan memiliki keterkaitan terhadap respon obat, yang mana dapat mempengaruhi kadar obat di dalam darah (farmakokinetik) maupun efek obat secara langsung (farmakodinamik). Perubahan farmakokinetik dan farmakodinamik obat dapat berpotensi menyebabkan toksisitas maupun penurunan efektivitas suatu obat. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk memaparkan ketersediaan informasi variasi genetik yang telah diketahui dapat mempengaruhi respon obat, sehingga dapat membantu meningkatkan ketepatan strategi farmakoterapi

Published: August 2024

Over the years, we have been teaching and learning performing arts that significantly support human development, especially among young school learners. According to studies, performing arts, particularly dance, have assisted young learners in developing a sense of awareness - physically, emotionally, spiritually, and intellectually. Hence, establishing a cultural club in Malaysian schools is pertinent to unearthing young learners' potential. However, we discovered that our young learners have significant issues related to their left and right coordination, which is the foundation of physical activities, especially dancing. To address this issue, we tailored our teaching strategies to conditional behavior learning. Our study aims to help these learners improve their joget dancing technique. To collect and reflect meaningful data, we have recruited 15 participants among our school pupils. They are all girls aged between 13 and 17 years old. We spent almost two months making sense of all relevant information and data for this research via observation, reflection, planning, and action. Our reflection indicates that most young learners experience left-right coordination problems and cannot perform the instruction accordingly. Hence, the intervention has helped them improve their technique. Using both the Vygotsky and Learning Progression frameworks to teach dance has had a significant impact on students' performances and could be applied to other subjects and platforms.

Authors: Pranoto Yuliana Melita , Handayani Anik Nur , Herwanto Heru Wahyu , Kristian Yosi
Published: August 2024

Information technology is pivotal in increasing efficiency and effectiveness in online retail, particularly in product matching. This research delves into the challenges associated with product matching in the e-commerce sector, addressing issues related to the diversity and ambiguity of product titles and the fast-paced introduction of new products to the market. As a solution, we implement a neural network-based approach. The main contribution of this research is the implementation and validation of the Doc2Vec method in the context of product matching for e-commerce products. Additionally, this study successfully identifies the optimal parameter combinations for Hierarchical Clustering, which has been tested and validated on 4,000 product title data points. The data for learning and evaluation comes from an online retail platform and includes 34,000 product names from various sectors. The research compares two Doc2Vec architectures for feature extraction from product titles and then integrates them with a Hierarchical Clustering approach to group similar products. The results indicate that the Doc2Vec model with the DBOW (Distributed Bag of Words) architecture yields a better average NMI (Normalized Mutual Information) Score than the DM (Distributed Memory) architecture.

Background: Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) inhibitors are frequently prescribed for patients with type 2 diabetes; however, their cost can pose a significant barrier for those with impaired kidney function. This study aimed to estimate the economic benefits of substituting non-renal dose-adjusted (NRDA) DPP4 inhibitors with renal dose-adjusted (RDA) DPP4 inhibitors in patients with both impaired kidney function and type 2 diabetes.Methods: This retrospective cohort study was conducted from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2018, using data obtained from common data models of five medical centers in Korea. Model 1 applied the prescription pattern of participants with preserved kidney function to those with impaired kidney function. In contrast, model 2 replaced all NRDA DPP4 inhibitors with RDA DPP4 inhibitors, adjusting the doses of RDA DPP4 inhibitors based on individual kidney function. The primary outcome was the cost difference between the two models.Results: In total, 67,964,996 prescription records were analyzed. NRDA DPP4 inhibitors were more frequently prescribed to patients with impaired kidney function than in those with preserved kidney function (25.7%, 51.3%, 64.3%, and 71.6% in patients with estimated glomerular filtration rates [eGFRs] of ≥60, <60, <45, and <30 mL/min/1.73 m2, respectively). When model 1 was applied, the cost savings per year were 7.6% for eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 and 30.4% for eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m2. According to model 2, 15.4% to 51.2% per year could be saved depending on kidney impairment severity.Conclusion: Adjusting the doses of RDA DPP4 inhibitors based on individual kidney function could alleviate the economic burden associated with medical expenses.
Territorialidades em foco: análise do Índice de Vulnerabilidade Social em diferentes contextos brasileiros
Authors: Teixeira Laura Cristina Melo , Freitas Sávio Nunes de , Effgen Julia Frederica , Costa Marco Aurélio
Published: August 2024

Este texto propõe uma análise espacial do Brasil em quatro territorialidades: Amazônia Legal, faixa de fronteira (FF), defrontantes com o mar e semiárido. Essa divisão é uma tentativa de ampliar o escopo de compreensão do território brasileiro para além dos recortes habituais, como a divisão por regiões. Para tanto, utilizaram-se dos dados dos Censos Demográficos de 2000 e 2010 para a construção do Índice de Vulnerabilidade Social (IVS). Os resultados apontam para uma melhoria geral da vulnerabilidade social nas áreas analisadas, porém, novos estudos são necessários para identificar os pontos convergentes e divergentes dentro das territorialidades. A desagregação dos IVS de 2000 e 2010 por cor mostrou que a população negra teve um avanço significativo, mas ainda apresenta maior vulnerabilidade social que a população branca.

Educação e crescimento econômico: um estudo econométrico-espacial para os municípios do sudeste brasileiro
Authors: Almeida Leonardo Alexandrino de , Firme Vinícius de Azevedo Couto
Published: August 2024

Este trabalho usou uma versão espacial ampliada do modelo MRW (Mankiw, Romer e Weil, 1992) para analisar o impacto da educação no crescimento da renda per capita dos municípios do Sudeste brasileiro entre 2000 e 2010. Os resultados sugerem que o impacto é maior em localidades predominantemente urbanas, desenvolvidas, com maior porte populacional e menor desigualdade. Estimou-se que um crescimento de 10% na educação aumentaria a renda entre 4,28% e 5,54%, com impactos maiores nos municípios de São Paulo e menores nos municípios de Minas Gerais. Em um cenário ideal, a renda aumentaria até 32,3% apenas com melhorias na educação. Embora elevado, este efeito poderia ficar superestimado caso a dependência espacial fosse ignorada.

Published: August 2024

O artigo avalia impactos na distribuição espacial dos salários nominais por meio de uma equação expandida da nova geografia econômica (NGE). Uma função potencial de mercado foi especificada, em que os custos de transporte são mensurados pelo tempo médio de viagem entre os principais municípios produtores industriais do Brasil em 2010. Observou-se que a acessibilidade aos mercados regionais contribuiu diretamente para o crescimento dos salários praticados pelas indústrias tradicionais (S1) e pelas fabricantes de bens de capital e duráveis (S4) nos setores de commodities minerais (S2), bem como de produtos químicos, energia e combustíveis (S3). No entanto, tais rendimentos dependem do valor das exportações locais. A qualificação do trabalho é importante fonte de retornos crescentes, mas os setores intensivos em tecnologia e de maior acesso aos mercados regionais (S4) se beneficiam mais com o alcance dos transbordamentos espaciais.

Published: August 2024

Excessive sweating caused by cholinergic receptors on eccrine glands being overstimulated is known as hyperhidrosis. Through disruption of the skin's natural defense systems, hyperhidrosis also directly affects skin conditions. As a result, dermatoses of bacterial, fungal, and less frequently viral origin are more common in afflicted people. A significant decline in the quality of life of patients is a result of the symptoms of excessive sweating. Daily activities are disrupted as a result of their substantial effects on several facets of life, including psychological, social, and even economic domains. Patients find them to be a great burden, which makes them feel alone and unconsciously self-conscious. Additionally, stress and emotions have the potential to worsen them. At the Sree Ramakrishna Medical College of Naturopathy and Yogic Sciences and Hospital in Kulasekharam, Tamil Nadu, India, ladies between the ages of 18 and 23 are participating in the study. Verbal consent was gained when the study's purpose was explained.Thirty respondents filled out this survey. The survey consists of thirty questions. This is not the usual level of understanding about food and water use. Women therefore need to be better informed about the need to get enough water, eating a healthy diet, using skincare products, managing stress, and getting enough sleep.

The research findings suggest that the Bihar government, educational institutions, and individuals must collaborate effectively to completely leverage the benefits of digital media, surmount its challenges, and maximize its positive impact on public opinion.
Adam Smith y la ineficiente inmoralidad de las políticas mercantilistas
Authors: Paganelli María Pía
Published: August 2024

Adam Smith describió su obra La riqueza de las naciones como un violento ataque contra todo el sistema comercial británico. Para Smith, el Imperio británico en su totalidad era resultado de incentivos perversos provenientes de grupos de interés particulares. Estos grupos de interés generaban ineficiencias, pero también y muy especialmente, brutales injusticias para con los miembros más débiles de la sociedad. Parte de la modernidad de Adam Smith consiste en su comprensión de que todo incentivo perverso asociado a intereses específicos es una fuerza destructiva tanto de la riqueza como de la justicia. Ello era así en sus tiempos y también lo es en los nuestros.

We present the Interactive Spectral-Line Analysis Tool (iSLAT), a python-based graphical tool that allows users to interactively explore, inspect, and fit line emission observed in molecular spectra. iSLAT adopts a simple slab model in LTE that simulates emission spectra with a small set of parameters (temperature, emitting area, column density, and line broadening) that users can adjust in real time for multiple molecules or multiple thermal components of a same molecule. A central feature of iSLAT is the possibility to interactively inspect individual lines or line clusters to visualize their properties at high resolution and identify them in the population diagram. iSLAT provides a number of additional features, including the option to identify lines that are not blended at the instrumental resolution, the possibility to save custom line lists selected by the user, and to fit and measure their properties (line flux, width, and centroid) for later analysis. In this paper we launch the tool and demonstrate it on infrared spectra from the James Webb Space Telescope and ground-based instruments that provide higher resolving power. We also share curated line lists that are useful for the analysis of the forest of water emission lines observed from protoplanetary disks. iSLAT is shared with the community on GitHub.

Jetted active galactic nuclei (AGN) hosting extended photoionized nebulae provide us with a unique view of the timescales associated with AGN activity. Here, we present a new green bean galaxy at z = 0.304458 ± 0.000007 with large-scale jet-induced radio emission. The spectral energy distributions of the radio components show steep spectral indices (α = −0.85 to −0.92 for the extended regions, and α = −1.02 for the faint radio core), and spectral age modeling of the extended radio emission indicates that the lobes are >6 Myr old. It is unclear whether the jet is active, or is a remnant with an off-time of 2–3 Myr. Several detached clouds lie around the host galaxy up to 37.8 kpc away from the nucleus, and their ionization profile indicates a decline (∼2 dex) in the AGN ionizing photon production over the past ∼0.15 Myr. Furthermore, we measure a blueshift for one of the clouds that is spatially coincident with the path of the radio jet. The cloud is likely illuminated by the photoionizing AGN, and potentially underwent an interaction with the relativistic jet. Our multiwavelength analysis suggests that RGB1 was in a phase of jet production prior to the radiatively efficient accretion phase traced by the detached cloud emission. It is unclear whether RGB1 transitioned into a low-excitation radio galaxy or an inactive galaxy over the past ∼0.15 Myr, or whether the extended radio and optical emission trace distinct accretion phases that occurred in succession.

The source of the Galactic lithium (Li) has long been a puzzle. With the discovery of Li in novae, extensive research has been conducted. However, there still exists a significant disparity between the observed abundance of Li in novae and the existing theoretical predictions. Using the Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics, we simulate the evolution of novae with element diffusion and appropriately increase the amount of 3He in the mixtures. Element diffusion enhances the transport efficiency between the nuclear reaction zone and the convective region on the surface of the white dwarf (WD) during nova eruptions, which results in more 7Be being transmitted to the WD surface and ultimately ejected. Compared to the previous predictions, the abundance of 7Be in novae simulated in our model significantly increases. The result is able to explain almost all observed novae. Using the method of population synthesis, we calculate Li yield in the Galaxy. We find that the Galactic occurrence rate of novae is about 130 yr−1, and about 110 M
⊙ Li produced by nova eruption is ejected into the interstellar medium (ISM). About 73% of Li in the Galactic ISM originates from novae and approximately 15%–20% of the entire Galaxy. This means that novae are the important source of Li in the Galaxy.

Objective

To investigate (1) the effect of colchicine prophylaxis on gout remission when commencing urate-lowering therapy (ULT), and (2) illness perceptions of people in remission using 2 definitions of gout remission.

Methods

Data from a 12-month double-blind placebo-controlled trial of 200 people with gout commencing allopurinol were analyzed. Participants were randomly assigned to prophylaxis with 0.5 mg daily colchicine or placebo for 6 months, followed by 6 months of additional follow-up. Gout remission was assessed using the 2016 preliminary definition or simplified definition without patient-reported outcomes. Illness perceptions were assessed using a gout-specific version of the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire.

Results

In the first 6 months, few participants were in remission according to either the 2016 preliminary definition (3% for colchicine and 4% for placebo) or the simplified definition (7% for colchicine and 12% for placebo). In the second 6 months, after study drug (colchicine or placebo) discontinuation, fewer participants in the colchicine group than in the placebo group were in remission according to the 2016 preliminary definition (4% vs 14%,P= 0.03), and the simplified definition (14% vs 28%,P= 0.02). Participants fulfilling remission using either definition had more favorable perceptions about their gout symptoms and illness concerns, as well as consequences, when using the simplified definition.

Conclusion

Using either definition, 6 months of colchicine prophylaxis when initiating ULT does not provide an advantage in the fulfillment of gout remission. People fulfilling either definition report fewer symptoms, less concern about their gout, and, when using the simplified definition, are less affected by gout.

Dans le contexte d’un long dix-huitième siècle, allant de Newton à Goethe, et du nouveau désir de couleurs qui anima alors l’univers de la consommation et le capitalisme commercial, de nouveaux modes de figurations furent imaginés en vue de les identifier, les différencier et les promouvoir ou au contraire les discriminer. Cet article procède en deux temps principaux : d’abord l’examen de l’actualité des débats sur la couleur qui témoigne d’une nouvelle épistémologie visuelle ; ensuite un inventaire de quelques modèles de représentations chromatiques, scientifiques et artistiques, depuis les diagrammes visuels jusqu’à l’objet tableau, qui donne aussi à voir une forme de réflexivité sur la figuration des couleurs à travers la notion de « couleur locale ».
From Experiments to Figuration. Pigment Powders, Newton’s Colour Wheel and Traité de la Peinture au Pastel
Authors: Simonini Giulia
Published: August 2024

Cet article retrace les liens entre deux diagrammes qui furent publiés à seulement quatre ans d’intervalle au début du XVIII e siècle. Le premier est le célèbre cercle chromatique d’Isaac Newton et le second est un diagramme composé de deux anneaux, publié dans un manuel sur la peinture au pastel. La technique de la peinture au pastel avait en effet gagné en popularité au cours de la seconde moitié du XVII e siècle, alors que Newton commençait à étudier le phénomène de la couleur. Les deux schémas eurent une importance considérable dans le développement des diagrammes circulaires pour les artistes, et ils ont souvent été associés l’un à l’autre. Cet article renforce ce lien en s’intéressant aux expériences de Newton avec les pigments en poudre –en particulier leur évolution entre les années 1670 et la publication de son ouvrage Opticks. Il montre comment celles-ci ont pu être inspirées par la peinture au pastel et comment son cercle chromatique a pu dès lors être perçu comme intimement lié à ses expériences sur les poudres et, par conséquent, à la peinture au pastel.
Représenter la richesse dans La Nouvelle Héloïse de Rousseau : « les gens du bel air, […] voilà les acteurs de tous vos romans ! »
Authors: Zagamé Antonia
Published: August 2024

Dans Julie ou La Nouvelle Héloïse , Rousseau fait le choix de ne pas représenter les mœurs luxueuses des riches dans les grandes villes, pour n’évoquer que « la vie d’honnêtes gens aisés » (C. Martin) d’un canton suisse. L’étude aborde le sujet du luxe et de la consommation des richesses au xviii e siècle en faisant dialoguer la pensée de Rousseau avec celle de philosophes contemporains précurseurs des théories libérales. Faire apparaître la cohérence entre la création esthétique et la réflexion philosophique de Rousseau permet de mieux cerner la posture critique qu’il endosse face aux laudateurs du luxe, en l’envisageant à travers ses différentes modalités. L’article contribue ainsi à montrer toute l’actualité de la réflexion de Rousseau sur ce qui favorise notre aptitude à nous mettre à la place d’autrui, comme sur les situations qui peuvent nous rendre impitoyables et nuire à la vie sociale.
