Published: August 2022

ABSTRACT
Asset valuation is one of the root causes of the problem. There is an intersection between the accounting profession and the appraisal profession. By the presence of property valuation, market value, investment value, insurance value, or other types can be known. According to the American Institute of Real Estate Appraiser (1987:63) and Eckert et al. (1991:151) said, it can be done through three approaches, namely the market data comparison approach and the cost approach, and the income approach (Income capitalization approach). This research was conducted by means of assessment using the Cost Approach (cost approach) and Income Approach (income approach) methods. This research was conducted to determine the market value of the property. In the research on the fair value analysis of Dalwa Syariah Hotel using the income approach method and the cost approach method based on the cost and income approach, the market value of the Dalwa Syariah Hotel object with an assessment date of May 23, 2022, was IDR 16,640,000,000 (sixteen billion six hundred and forty million rupiahs).

Published: August 2022

Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) is still the most common cause of death. Ischemic heart disease causes more than 7 million (12.8%) deaths worldwide. It is estimated that 3,750,000 Indonesians have CHD. CHD is a disease with many risk factors. ApoE gene polymorphism is associated with atherosclerosis and plays a role in lipid metabolism, which is 2-16% affecting variability in LDL levels. This study aims to look at the relationship between ApoE gene polymorphism and the severity of coronary heart disease. Data regarding ApoE gene polymorphism was obtained using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). DNA was isolated from white blood cells using DNA purification kit. ApoE2, ApoE3, ApoE4 alleles were detected by DNA sequencing. Data on the severity of coronary heart disease were obtained from angiography and were calculated based on SYNTAX scores. In this study, ApoE was obtained with e2 allele frequencies (4.63%), e3 (78.70%), and e4 (16.67%) with E2 / 2 (0%), E2 / 3 (3.70%), E2 / 4 (5.56%), E3 / 3 (64.81%), E3 / 4 (24.07%), and E4 / 4 (1.85%). The relationship between the SYNTAX score and the ApoE genotype has no significant difference. ApoE3 / 4 genotype has the highest SYNTAX score and the e4 allele has the most influence on CHD despite the influence of statin therapy.

Published: August 2022

Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) is one of the indicators in determining the degree of health of a nation. One of the causes of maternal death is related to the problem of gender inequality in society. The role of midwives in providing gender-responsive services is needed to realize welfare and health for all. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the gender approach in antenatal care at the Midwife Independent Practice Center. This research uses a descriptive qualitative method with in-depth interviews and data analysis using triangulation of sources, techniques and experts. Primary data were obtained using interview guideline sheets from 6 informants, which included 2 midwives and 2 pregnant women who did not understand antenatal care with gender responsiveness and their partners. The results of the study on the effectiveness of the gender approach in antenatal care at the Midwife E Independent Practice Place is assessed from indicators of target accuracy, socialization, achievement of goals and monitoring, it can be said to be quite effective because the implementation already involves the participation of pregnant women and their partners. However, there needs to be a guideline that regulates gender-responsive care. Suggestion: Establish a specific guideline governing gender-responsive midwifery care standards by both professional organizations and related agencies.

Published: August 2022

Pendudukan Belanda di Nusantara berpengaruh terhadap struktur kehidupan masyarakat. Pengaruhnya dalam berbagai bidang seperti ekonomi, sosial, dan budaya. Salah satunya tentang representasi perempuan Jawa melalui iklan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode sejarah yang meliputi heuristik, verifikasi eksternal dan internal, interpretasi dengan pendekatan analisis wacana multimodal untuk melihat sebuah gambar dikombinasikan dengan teks dan tata letak membentuk wacana yang dapat dipahami orang banyak, sehingga tergambar praksis sosialnya berkenaan aktivitas sosial beserta tatanan sosial masyarakat, dan historiografi. Hasil penelitian menunjukan jika iklan memainkan peran sebagai tulang punggung finansial bagi keberlangsungan industri pers. Iklan yang termuat dalam surat kabar dan majalah memiliki kredibilitas tinggi sebagai alat perekam dinamika masyarakat sehingga digunakan merekonstruksi perubahan masyarakat. Menariknya beberapa iklan selalu terdapat sosok perempuan. Ternyata dibalik sosok perempuan terdapat wacana yang ingin disampaikan pembuat iklan. Wacana tersebut diantaranya seksime untuk menarik minat laki-laki terhadap suatu produk. Terdapat pula wacana yang berhubungan dengan imperialisme, kolonialisme, dan kapitalisme terkait citra perempuan. Kaum bumiputra coba dibentuk pola berpikirnya jika citra perempuan ideal dan cantik seperti di Barat. Pada saat yang sama, iklan seperti itu menghadirkan kolonisasi sebagai hal yang suci dan mewah tanpa melewatkan acuan rasis yang menempatkan orang kulit putih sebagai representasi manusia yang superior yang berbudaya dan beradab.

Down syndrome (DS) is caused by human chromosome 21 (HSA21) trisomy. It is characterized by a poorly understood intellectual disability (ID). We studied two mouse models of DS, one with an extra copy of theDyrk1Agene (189N3) and the other with an extra copy of the mouse Chr16 syntenic region (Dp(16)1Yey). RNA-seq analysis of the transcripts deregulated in the embryonic hippocampus revealed an enrichment in genes associated with chromatin for the 189N3 model, and synapses for the Dp(16)1Yey model. A large-scale yeast two-hybrid screen (82 different screens, including 72 HSA21 baits and 10 rebounds) of a human brain library containing at least 107independent fragments identified 1,949 novel protein–protein interactions. The direct interactors of HSA21 baits and rebounds were significantly enriched in ID-related genes (P-value < 2.29 × 10−8). Proximity ligation assays showed that some of the proteins encoded by HSA21 were located at the dendritic spine postsynaptic density, in a protein network at the dendritic spine postsynapse. We located HSA21 DYRK1A and DSCAM, mutations of which increase the risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) 20-fold, in this postsynaptic network. We found that an intracellular domain of DSCAM bound either DLGs, which are multimeric scaffolds comprising receptors, ion channels and associated signaling proteins, or DYRK1A. The DYRK1A-DSCAM interaction domain is conserved inDrosophilaand humans. The postsynaptic network was found to be enriched in proteins associated with ARC-related synaptic plasticity, ASD, and late-onset Alzheimer’s disease. These results highlight links between DS and brain diseases with a complex genetic basis.
RNA-sequencing of single cholangiocyte-derived organoids reveals high organoid-to organoid variability

Published: August 2022

Over the last decades, organoids have been established from most of the tissue-resident stem and iPS cells. They hold great promise for our understanding of mammalian organ development, but also for the study of disease or even personalised medicine. In recent years, several reports hinted at intraculture organoid variability, but a systematic analysis of such heterogeneity has not been performed before. Here, we used RNA-seq of individual intrahepatic cholangiocyte organoids to address this question. We find that batch-to-batch variation is very low, whereas passage number has a profound impact on gene expression profiles. On the other hand, there is organoid-to-organoid variability within a culture. Using differential gene expression, we did not identify specific pathways that drive this variability, pointing towards possible effects of the microenvironment within the culture condition. Taken together, our study provides a framework for organoid researchers to properly consider experimental design.
PFKFB4 interacts with ICMT and activates RAS/AKT signaling-dependent cell migration in melanoma
Authors: Sittewelle Méghane , Kappès Vincent , Zhou Chenxi , Lécuyer Déborah , Monsoro-Burq Anne H
Published: August 2022

Cell migration is a complex process, tightly regulated during embryonic development and abnormally activated during cancer metastasis. RAS-dependent signaling is a major nexus controlling essential cell parameters including proliferation, survival, and migration, utilizing downstream effectors such as the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. In melanoma, oncogenic mutations frequently enhance RAS, PI3K/AKT, or MAP kinase signaling and trigger other cancer hallmarks among which the activation of metabolism regulators. PFKFB4 is one of these critical regulators of glycolysis and of the Warburg effect. Here, however, we explore a novel function of PFKFB4 in melanoma cell migration. We find that PFKFB4 interacts with ICMT, a posttranslational modifier of RAS. PFKFB4 promotes ICMT/RAS interaction, controls RAS localization at the plasma membrane, activates AKT signaling and enhances cell migration. We thus provide evidence of a novel and glycolysis-independent function of PFKFB4 in human cancer cells. This unconventional activity links the metabolic regulator PFKFB4 to RAS-AKT signaling and impacts melanoma cell migration.
A Systematic Review of the Effectiveness of Core Stability Exercises in Patients with Non-Specific Low Back Pain
Authors: Smrcina Zachary , Woelfel Sarah , Burcal Christopher
Published: August 2022

Background

Low back pain affects millions of people worldwide and can be a difficult condition to manage clinically. Many cases do not have a discernable etiology, further increasing the complexity of finding an effective intervention. Core stabilization exercises (CSE) strengthen the musculature that provides stability to the spine and show promising outcomes.

Purpose

To examine the efficacy of CSE exercises in the treatment of NSLBP in adult patients.

Study Selection

Studies were included if they had patients diagnosed with NSLBP, used CSE as a treatment for NSLBP, and were a clinical trial. Exclusion criteria were studies that did not utilize an objective pain scale, patients who had a specific diagnosed pathology contributing to the NSLBP or received treatment for their NSLBP within the prior six months.

Methods

The literature was systematically searched in the PubMed, Sports Medicine & Education Index, and CINHAL databases, using the search terms core stabilization, low back pain, and exercise. The initial search yielded 229 articles and was refined using search terms ‘NOT analysis’ in order to target randomized control trials and exclude meta-analyses to narrow the search. Full-text of the articles were assessed for eligibility by utilizing inclusion and exclusion criteria that were included in this review. Articles were assessed for quality using the PEDro scale and relevant data were extracted.

Results

Five moderate-quality studies (PEDRO range: 5-8) support CSE is an effective method to decrease pain, improve functionality, and increase core strength in patients with NSLBP. Although there are other commonly used methods to treating NSLBP, CSE have shown to be a beneficial method to treating NSLBP.

Conclusion

Grade B evidence suggests core stabilization exercises can be considered a favorable method for treating pain in patients with NSLBP.

The Illicit Scripts: An Architecture that encapsulates the writers of the unwritten chapters
Authors:   , Helmy Nervan
Published: August 2022

With recent political unrest in Egypt and the election of a new president, the Egyptian people came close to having a radical Islam believer, purportedly affiliated to the radicalist group known as ISIS, as the leader of a nation that so far has remained secular. The fear shared by a great part of the Egyptian population is if Radical Islam did become the foremost power of the nation, a non-secular dictatorship becoming the new decree, causing a transformation in class, tradition and culture, and creating segregation within the believers and non-believers. The resistance becomes the outcast, living in poverty and forced into hard labour. In such a hypothetical, but not unimaginable situation, how might the oppressed survive and live comfortably with only the aid of their own community, without support of society and Government?

This thesis explores an underworld of ghettos and forced segregation settlements in order to propose a utopian alternative within a dystopian scenario and investigates how Interior Architecture might manipulate space and create comfortable and secure atmosphere within the confines of an abandoned building.

Theorist Michel Foucault and his book on “Discipline and Punish” will help guide the design research in relation to authority and actions against the unlawful. Looking at the panopticon also reviewed by Foucault, will provide a better understanding of how Interior Architecture can influence the environment.

The selected site, Bibliotheque Alexandria, was chosen for its history and the likely destruction under a non-secular radical regime. In a radical authoritarian regime, it is conceivable that restriction of knowledge would be the first act of power, following so many examples throughout history. With the abolition of the library, the building will become abandoned and provide the space for a segregated community to occupy. The thesis aim is to achieve a micro ecosystem within the architectural shell as to provide for the community and its inhabitants. Using Interior Architecture to develop a design which would enable this new lifestyle of the oppressed people of Alexandria through the use of materiality, modular systems as well as the traditional skill set within Egypt.

While petroleum-based polymers have been widely accepted due to their functional properties, it is becoming evident that some bio-based materials can also be engineered to deliver novel functionalities such as 4D responsivity. Integrating bio-based responsive materials with 4D printing technology can offer considerable potential for large-scale applications such as furniture products. This integration provides a more novel form of transportation for such products as well as the opportunity to eliminate the requirement for the production of multiple parts and assembly of them. In addition, this integration provides the opportunity to make use of locally-available resources for a more sustainable economy. Despite these advantages, there is a lack of research that explores the application of these materials and technologies for large-scale products. In response, this research showcases the potential design opportunity of responsive bio-based polymers combined with 4D printing technology for large-scale applications.

This research involves a series of physical experiments conducted in collaboration with material scientists based on the Material Driven Design method. These experiments demonstrate the novel properties of engineered cellulose-based polyesters in the form of design concepts. Hardware was developed to provide the required tools for large-scale prototyping. In addition, this research employs the Research Through Design approach to guide an experimental and iterative process of developing furniture designs, as a case study for large-scale products.

This research creates four outcomes in different stages of the project. The first outcome is a taxonomy of cellulose-based polyesters with their properties. The second outcome is a large-scale paste extruder that can be installed on an industrial robot arm. The third is a series of 4D-printed, small-scale furniture models with the ability to transform from a 2D to 3D shape for flat-pack furniture. Lastly, this research results in a 1:4 scale furniture prototype.

Overall this research explores and evaluates the plausibility of large-scale applications for bio-based polymers and 4D printing technology. In addition, it reveals the challenges involved in this process and provides a reference point for the future development of material and design.
Mirror VR: The design of a fully immersive virtual reality game for upper limb rehabilitation post-stroke using mirror therapy
Authors:   , Leniston-Kahsai Senai
Published: August 2022

Motor rehabilitation post-stroke requires practice that is high-intensity, repetitive, task-specific, challenging, and goal-oriented to promote neuroplasticity to maximise functional recovery outcomes. There is concern that people with stroke (PwS) are not engaging in sufficient therapy dose to induce significant neuroplastic changes. PwS can utilise motor priming techniques, such as mirror therapy (MT), that are low-cost adjuncts to conventional physical rehabilitation proposed to induce neuroplasticity. However, the repetitive and perceived boring elements of conventional physical therapy exercises are potential reasons for low adherence in home-based independent rehabilitation. Interactive rehabilitation-focused video games have shown initial promise for facilitating engagement in rehabilitation. Virtual reality (VR) games focus on movement and promote increased immersion in virtual environments compared to 2D interfaces. The recent emergence of low-cost and standalone consumer-based VR headsets opens the accessibility of VR to new audiences. VR, in combination with interactive gaming, affords opportunities to extend the visual and proprioceptive feedback employed in MT and use gamification to facilitate engagement in rehabilitation.

This thesis involved the design of a fully immersive VR game based on MT. The research comprised three stages: empathic design through a design thinking workshop, iterative prototyping, and expert review of game design with clinicians. A design thinking workshop involving PwS and stroke rehabilitation experts informed the construction of design criteria for the game. Research through design, using the design criteria, was conducted iteratively. An expert review by clinicians evaluated the potential usability of the game as well as validated the game against our design criteria. VR enhanced the visual illusion employed in mirror therapy and could provide an immersive and novel self-management tool for PwS to positively engage with their rehabilitation. Future directions will include testing how VR could facilitate engagement in rehabilitation through qualitative and quantitative analysis of the user testing with PwS.
Non-Destructive Analysis to Investigate the Stone Alterations at a UNESCO World Heritage Site

Published: August 2022

This study concerns the eleven monolithic churches in Lalibela, in northeastern Ethiopia, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and currently the main pilgrimage site in Ethiopia. In 2019, on the initiative of Prime Minister, the French authorities proposed their support in the management on the site of the churches. To do so, the French Development Agency (AFD), in collaboration with the Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs and with the support of the Ministry of Culture, granted a feasibility study to examine ways of restoring, conserving, and developing the rock-hewn churches. The objective of the feasibility study conducted was to produce the preliminary technical diagnostics required for the preparation of the comprehensive project to restore, conserve, and develop the site. In order to propose a protection and conservation solution, diagnostics and analysis of the pathology of the rocks were made during two campaigns in November 2019 and November 2020. The rock pathology teams implemented non-destructive and minimally invasive analysis. The complementary methods acquire data from the rock surface and the different forms of differential alteration of the scoriaceous basalt. The objective is to characterize, through comparative analyses, the impact of a protective shelter on the alteration kinetics of the rock. The analysis, coupled with on-site observations, suggests that deterioration linked to liquid water and the persistence of a state of high water content is more damaging than the deterioration risk linked to salt crystallization. As water is the key factor in the very harmful alteration for the conservation of scoriaceous basalt as a heritage material in humid natural environments, it seems useful to fully cover the churches. Doi: 10.28991/HEF-2022-03-02-01 Full Text: PDF

Published: August 2022

Remote sensing technology can be said to be an eye in the sky which provides detailed information on various parameters of the Earth, including climatic, vegetative, and forest variables. For many years, Landsat 8 has been used to study various natural phenomena on Earth. In the present study, Landsat 8 imagery has been used to retrieve land surface temperature (LST). For retrieving LST, TIRS (Thermal Infra-Red Sensor) Spectral Bands have been used. The LST map of Udhamsingh Nagar in Uttarakhand, India has been further prepared for the period 2018 to 2021 for the month of October. The result suggested that for the study area, LST varies from 24 oC to 39 oC for the month of October in the aforesaid study period. High temperatures have been observed in built-up areas like towns and residential areas, whereas in agricultural fields and forests, the LST is lower as compared to human-induced built-up areas. Further, the southeastern part of Udhamsingh Nagar has higher LST as compared to other regions of the study area. Doi: 10.28991/HEF-2022-03-02-02 Full Text: PDF
Investigation of Colour Naturalness in Lighting: A Comparative Study
Authors: Chalmers Andrew Neil
Published: August 2022

This paper is concerned with improving the acceptability of LED light sources, since their long life and high efficiency have contributed to their widespread adoption in many applications. Concerns remain, however, in relation to their colour properties. The purpose of this paper is therefore to promote discussion of the naturalness concept among the users, specifiers, and manufacturers of lighting sources and systems, in the hope that this may provide a valid pathway to the classification of light-source colour properties. An overview is presented of experimental investigations aimed at establishing visually meaningful metrics for the colour quality of various light sources, predominantly LEDs. All the cases presented here included colour naturalness as at least one of the dimensions studied, and one has to conclude that naturalness is a property of great interest to lighting engineers and scientists. Because the majority of naturalness studies have invoked the use of pre-existing colour quality metrics, the paper also includes an overview of some of the major such metrics and their features. The paper also identifies two important concerns relating to Naturalness: the need to agree on an acceptable definition of colour naturalness in lighting; and how to standardize or compare the results of disparate investigations. Finally, the paper proposes the concept of a colour fidelity continuum, in the ultimate hope of uniting the various approaches to lighting colour quality. Doi: 10.28991/HEF-2022-03-02-04 Full Text: PDF

Сьогодні комунікація вважається невід’ємним елементом управління компанією. Обґрунтовано, що комунікативний бар'єр становить собою перешкоду, яка є причиною складності обміну інформацією в ході діалогу. Виокремлено три групи міжкультурних бар’єрів: ті, що пов’язані з національною культурою, організаційні та  особистісні. Міжкультурні бар’єри можуть призвести до того, що учасники діалогу будуть по-різному інтерпретувати однакові поняття і це накладе відбиток на ефективність розмови. Щоб зменшити або виключити це негативне явище, аналіз культурних відмінностей слід проводити на чотирьох рівнях: культурна ідентичність, культурне само сприйняття, сприйняття інших культур, пошук в культурі точок дотику з метою полегшення комунікування. Доведено, що створення комплексної внутрішньої комунікаційної системи дозволяє покращити функціонування міжнародних корпорацій на багатьох рівнях.

Penelitian ini berjudul Evaluasi Program Perikanan Terhadap Peningkatan Nilai Produksi Ikan Asin (Teri) Di Kota Lhokseumawe. Program peningkatan nilai produksi perikanan dibuat agar produksi ikan asin teri yang ada di Pusong Baru Kota Lhokseumawe dapat meningkat produktifitasnya dari tahun ke tahun. Dalam mengimplementasikan Program tersebut DKP3 masih terkendala dengan minimnya anggaran untuk di salurkan kepada Masyarakat Nelayan yang ada di Pusong Baru. Sehingga mengakibatkan nilai produksi pengeringan ikan asin yang ada di Pusong menurun tingkat produksinya dari tahun 2016 hingga 2017, hal ini dikarenakan minimnya bantuan yang di salurkan oleh Dinas Kelautan, Perikanan, Pertanian dan Pangan Kota Lhokseumawe untuk para nelayan. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui bagaimana proses dan kendala dalam evaluasi program perikanan untuk meningkatkan nilai produksi ikan asin teri di Kota Lhokseumawe. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode Kualitatif Deskriptif yaitu dengan cara melakukan observasi, wawancara dan dokumentasi. Dari hasil penelitian ini menjelaskan bahwa program DKP3 untuk meningkatkan nilai produksi perikanan yang ada di Pusong Baru diterima dengan baik oleh masyarakat nelayan dan pedagang disana. Namun dalam pelaksanaan program tersebut DKP3 kekurangan anggaran untuk disalurkan kepada para nelayan, sehingga terjadilah ketidaksinambungan antara nelayan dan DKP3 dalam produksi perikanan. Program tersebut terkendala juga dengan susahnya meminta data hasil tangkapan ikan segar kepada para nelayan, sehingga DKP3 Kota Lhokseumawe enggan untuk turun langsung kelokasi untuk meminta data kepada para nelayan. Dikarenakan hal tersebutlah kurangnya upaya dari dinas untuk meningkatkan nilai produksi perikanan yang ada di Kota Lhokseumawe

La promoción deportiva generada en los municipios es determinada por la administración municipal en conjunto con clubes privados y asociaciones deportivas, el primero con un enfoque social y los siguientes, creados con fines competitivos. Los municipios, son fundamentalmente los principales protagonistas del fenómeno deportivo en las localidades mexicanas, atienden la demanda creciente de una sociedad que reclama la necesidad de realizar ejercicio físico y deporte con fines muy variados. Este es un estudio cuantitativo y descriptivo, cuyo objetivo es generar información estadística que permita conocer el estado actual de los niveles de ejercicio físico y deporte. Se encuestaron de manera aleatoria un total de 69 personas mayores de 18 años que viven en Pueblo Nuevo IV sector en el Municipio de Apodaca, 20 hombres y 49 mujeres. Para la recolección de datos se utilizó el formato de Encuesta del Módulo de Práctica Deportiva y Ejercicio Físico 2013 (MOPRADEF). Los resultados nos muestran que el 47% no realiza ejercicio físico ni deporte, sin embargo, el 98% de este segmento, manifiesta que tiene el deseo de comenzar a realizarlo. Mientras que del 53% que si realiza ejercicio físico, el 89% lo realiza en espacios públicos, pero carecen de un líder que sirva de motivación para mantenerse activos. Concluimos que los niveles de ejercicio en este sector, son similares a la media mundial, por lo que el desarrollar líderes comunitarios que apoyen la implementación de actividades deportivas municipales, será clave para incrementar la práctica del ejercicio físico y deporte en nuestro municipio.
