Published: December 2024

This study examines the impact of three AI generative tools—Diffit, Brisk, and Mendeley—on university students’ writing perceptions and motivation. A mixed-methods approach combined quantitative pretest and posttest assessments with qualitative insights from interviews and classroom observations. The participants, 27 students from Universitas Ekasakti Padang, were purposively sampled and randomly assigned to groups based on the AI tool used. Quantitative results revealed that the Diffit group achieved self-efficacy improvements from 80% (initial) to 90% (post-intervention), with a task value of 60%. The Brisk group showed consistently high self-efficacy (90%) and task value (90%), achieving an 80% writing proficiency score. In contrast, the Mendeley group recorded self-efficacy scores of 100% initially, dropping to 60%, but maintained a writing proficiency score of 80% due to a task value of 80%. Findings highlight self-efficacy as the most critical factor influencing writing improvement, supported by task value, intrinsic motivation, and perceived usefulness. Recommendations include integrating AI tools to build students’ confidence, aligning tasks with personal goals, and fostering intrinsic motivation. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of AI tools in enhancing writing proficiency by addressing students' cognitive, emotional, and motivational needs.

A relevância da sociologia para mulheres presas e as peculiaridades dos espaços escolares dentro do sistema prisional
Authors: Lima Paulo  Cesar
Published: December 2024

This article is an excerpt from a master's thesis on teaching sociology in the female prison system. Brazil's incarceration policy makes the country third in the world in terms of the number of prisoners. In addition to the well-known difficulty of establishing sociology in Brazilian education, other elements must be considered when approaching the teaching of sociology in an environment as peculiar as that of a prison. Documentary gaps and the lack of targeted policies are part of the questioning of the importance or otherwise of education for people deprived of their liberty. The issue of work in prisons is an insurmountable need, because overcrowding, alarming numbers of illnesses, the presence of criminal factions, and the very situation of social vulnerability, make it difficult to achieve the goal of resocialization. In this context, the teaching of sociology becomes a challenge, because the problems that the subject studies encounter various barriers within an institution that has oppression as a 'necessary' conduct in its ideological base.

Several researchers found that the author of Tcheonzamun is really skillful. Her technique for both the separation of Chinese character and the translation on Korean pronunciation is truly good (Park et al., 2021; Kim, 2023). So it is considered that the author of Tcheonzamun or her neighbor might create Chinese character. The present researchers selected by random seven Chinese characters, named them from 0221 to 0227. Sampling of Chinese character is random. The title of this work is ‘A Story about Time Travel – The Story of Chinese Characters (0221-0227) When Translated on Korean Pronunciation’. This work concerns the translation of Chinese character on the basis of Korean pronunciation (Kim, 2023). The theme of this research is as follows. 0227. (祭; 살작 봐! Sal-zag-boa!) {present meaning; the ceremony for the dead ancestors.} < 祭=月(Sal) + 厶(zageun) + 示(boa).> [Originally, it is ‘Sal-zag-boa!’; ‘See you a bit!’] It is not the ceremony for the dead ancestor(s), it is but the feast of the present life! See you a bit! It is the strong hope for seeing his girlfriend or her boyfriend. It is very different from the common sense for this Chinese character of (祭). The meaning of the previous 6 Chinese characters is practical. But the meaning of the seventh Chinese character (祭) is opposite. It is known that Chinese character was created 3,000 years ago. During 3,000 years, why is the meaning of the Chinese character(祭) changed? Originally it showed the joyful love affair. However, now it is the sad ceremony of mourning.

Authors: Chakma Jyotiswi
Published: December 2024

Background: The Marma buddhist community, an indigenous group residing in Bangladesh's Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT), faces significant socio-cultural challenges. Marma women play pivotal roles in community leadership and cultural preservation, but limited research explores their contributions and the barriers they face. Objective: To explore the roles of Marma women in community leadership and cultural preservation, analyzing challenges and contributions statistically. Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted in the CHT's Bandarban, Khagrachari, and Rangamati districts from January 2020 to December 2022. A purposive sample of 318 Marma women aged 18 and above was selected. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and focus group discussions (FGDs). Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, chi-square tests, and logistic regression. In contrast, qualitative data were thematically analyzed to explore leadership roles, cultural preservation, and challenges faced by Marma women. Results: The study revealed that 64% of the respondents held leadership positions in local governance or community organizations, with a statistically significant relationship between education level and leadership roles (p < 0.01). Participation in cultural preservation activities, such as traditional festivals and rituals, was reported by 78% of women, with a significant correlation between age and cultural involvement (p = 0.02). Moreover, 53% of the participants were involved in educational initiatives to transmit Marma language and culture to younger generations, with a p-value of 0.03, indicating a significant relationship between involvement in education and leadership roles. Challenges such as gender inequality and limited access to resources were reported by 45% of respondents, with the issue of resource accessibility significantly associated with leadership participation (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Marma women are integral to community leadership and cultural preservation in the CHT. Their contributions are vital for sustaining the cultural identity of the Marma people, but they face significant challenges that hinder their full participation. Addressing gender inequities and improving resource accessibility is critical to empowering Marma women in their leadership and cultural preservation efforts.

Authors: Sajid Dr Muhammad Ashraf , Haque Dr Misbah Ul , Habib Dr Zahid , Abougazia Dr. Abdelwahed Samir
Published: December 2024

Acute mesenteric venous thrombosis (MVT) is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition, with the superior mesenteric vein (SMV) being the most frequently affected site of thrombosis. It is commonly observed in patients with underlying disorders that disrupt Virchow's Triad, which includes hypercoagulability, stasis, and endothelial injury [1]. In its acute form, SMVT is frequently associated with intestinal ischemia, complicating its clinical management and treatment [2]. The thrombotic occlusion of the mesenteric veins leads to impaired venous return, bowel ischemia, and in some cases, infarction, significantly impacting patient prognosis [3, 4]. We present a case of acute superior mesenteric venous thrombosis (SMVT) in a 42-year-old man who presented to our emergency walk-in clinic with acute onset of severe abdominal pain. He was referred to secondary care, where his contrast-enhanced abdominal Computerized Tomography (CT) scan revealed thrombosis of the superior mesenteric vein, splenic vein, and partial thrombosis of the intrahepatic part of the right portal vein. However, the CT scan showed no evidence of small bowel infarction or ischemia. He was subsequently managed with conservative measures.

Etiology, Diagnosis, and Clinical Management of Vulvodynia (Vulvar Pain)
Authors: Bayirli Ramazan
Published: December 2024

Vulvodynia is a chronic condition characterized by pain and discomfort in the vulvar vestibule, the area surrounding the vaginal opening. The etiology and pathophysiology of vulvodynia are complex and multifactorial. Current evidence points to a combination of peripheral inflammation, neural sensitization, hormonal dysregulation, and psychosocial factors. It typically manifests as sharp, burning pain or discomfort localized to the vestibule. An individualized, multimodal approach is vital in the treatment of vulvodynia. Conservative therapy is often the first line of treatment, with pharmacological and surgical options considered when these are insufficient. Emerging therapeutic approaches include platelet-rich plasma and low-level laser therapies. The heterogeneity of vulvodynia and the lack of a standardized diagnostic approach present significant challenges in clinical practice and research. Future studies should focus on elucidating the underlying pathophysiology of vulvodynia, emphasizing identifying biomarkers that may facilitate early diagnosis and targeted treatments. Advances in understanding the roles of central sensitization, neuroinflammation, and genetic predispositions may pave the way for more personalized and effective treatments. Vulvodynia significantly affects women's physical, emotional, and sexual health. Although progress has been made in understanding the potential underlying mechanisms, many gaps remain in its effective management. A multidisciplinary approach that includes medical, physical, and psychological therapies offers the best outcomes for patients. However, further research is necessary to develop more effective, individualized treatments and to improve the overall quality of care for women suffering from this condition.

Application of FMA on Soil Chemical Properties in Oil Palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) plants
Authors: Zebua Asri Cahyati , Wawan  , Zulfarina
Published: December 2024

Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is a significant agricultural commodity in tropical regions, particularly Indonesia. The increasing demand for palm oil has prompted the expansion of agricultural land, including the utilization of marginal lands such as Dystrudepts soil, typically characterized by low fertility and a deficiency in phosphate, a critical nutrient for plant growth. One potential solution to address these limitations is the application of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF), which have been shown to enhance water availability, improve fertilizer efficiency, facilitate nutrient absorption, and increase the populations of soil microorganisms. This study aims to evaluate the alterations in the chemical properties of Dystrudepts soil following the application of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi. The research was conducted in Petapahan Village, Tapung District. The experimental treatments comprised four levels of AMF application: a control group without AMF and three treatment groups receiving AMF at doses of 150 g/plant, 300 g/plant, and 450 g/plant. Each treatment was replicated five times, resulting in 20 experimental units containing one plant. The study employed a non-factorial RAL methodology. Data were subjected to analysis of variance, followed by Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at a 5% significance level. The findings indicated that the application of AMF significantly affected the soil's pH, organic carbon content (C-Organic), available phosphorus (P-available), and cation exchange capacity (CEC). Notably, a dose of 300 g per plant emerged as the most effective in enhancing the chemical properties of the soil associated with oil palm cultivation.

Published: December 2024

BACKGROUND: An endometrioma is a cyst that occurs when endometrial tissue grows on the epithelium of the ovary. Vitamin D is a steroid hormone that can be extracted from commonly available foods and can be synthesized by humans when exposed to sunlight. Vitamin D deficiency has been reported to be associated with various pathologies, including endometrioma. Vitamin D has been reported to have anti-angiogenic effects that may inhibit the growth of endometriotic implants.
 
AIM: Proving the effect of vitamin D administration on interleukin 6 (IL-6) levels in peritoneal fluid in patients with endometrioma.
METHOD:  Experimental research with two group, post-test only design with single blind that carried out at Central General Hospital (RSUP) Dr. Kariadi Semarang. The research subject was 50 patients with endometrioma on ovary. The definite diagnosis of endometrioma is made based on histopathological examination of tissue samples after the patient undergoes surgery. Patients will be divided into 2 groups, namely the vitamin D3 supplementation group and placebo. The intervention was carried out by providing vitamin D3 50,000 IU/week for a month. Evaluation of serum vitamin D levels were obtained using venous blood samples immediately when the patient was undergoing surgery. Interlukin-6 levels were obtained using peritoneal fluid samples obtained when the patient underwent surgery. Statistical analysis was carried out using the Independent T Test, Mann-Whitney U, Dependent T Test and Wilcoxon. Results are significant if p <0.05. Statistical analysis was carried out using SPSS edition 26.
RESULT:  Peritoneal fluid interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels between the vitamin D supplementation group and the placebo group did not show a significant difference (p=0.554).
CONCLUSION: Vitamin D supplementation in endometrioma patients is not associated with peritoneal fluid interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels.

Authors: Setiawan Andreas Arie , Sugiri Sugiri , Prasetyo Awal , Kurniawan Eirin Yovita , Putra Dominikus Evano
Published: December 2024

BACKGROUND : Waist circumference (WC) is a marker of intra-abdominal adipose tissue and a risk factor for cardiometabolic disease. A higher risk of coronary heart disease was associated with an increased WC. Garcinia mangostana Linn's anti-inflammatory activity would reduce abdominal fat deposition and WC. Additionally, Garcinia mangostana Linn's potential would increase in nanotechnology.
AIMS :  To demonstrate that WC in Wistar rats induced by an atherogenic diet can be decreased by α-Mangostin-loaded self-nanoemulsion (MG-SNE) treatment combined with physical activity.
METHOD : Experimental research with Randomized Control Trial design using a total sample of 15 male white rats (Rattus novergicus strain Wistar) weighing 300 grams and aged between 6 and 8 weeks, split into 3 groups given physical exercise for 8 weeks along with 3 different doses of medication (group K received Atorvastatin 1.44 mg once; group P1 received Garcinia mangostana Linn pericarp extract, at a dose of 800 mg/kg, divided into 3 administrations; and group P2 received MG-SNE 50 mg/kg once). Waist circumference was measured using a metline, before and after treatment.
RESULT :  WC decreased in Groups K, P1, and P2, with deltas of -5.00±21.21 mm, -12.50±24.75 mm, and -17.50±12.58 mm. The greatest decrease in WC was P2. There was no significant difference, according to the paired test between the pre-test and posttest in all groups. The p value >0.05 was determined to indicate that there were no significant differences between the groups.
CONCLUSION : WC in Wistar rats induced by an atherogenic diet can be decreased by MG-SNE treatment combined with physical exercise.

Authors: Kurnia Handy , Seno Heri Nugroho Hario , Bintoro Aris Catur , Purnomo Hery Djagat
Published: December 2024

Background: Oropharyngeal dysphagia may caused by a variety of causes. Myasthenia gravis is a common autoimmune disease affecting the neuromuscular junction. While ocular symptoms are common in myasthenia gravis, bulbar symptoms such as dysarthria and dysphagia are less common.
Aim: To present the importance of recognizing atypical presentations of myasthenia gravis and utilizing electromyography in diagnosis when AChR antibody testing is unavailable.
Case Presentation: A 57-year-old woman was referred because of progressive dysphagia for both solid and liquid food. She also experienced weight loss, heaviness of the right eyelid, drooling, and chewing difficulty. Medical history revealed diabetes. Vital signs were stable. Physical examination revealed right ptosis without any other neurological deficits. Wartenberg test and dysarthria counting test were positive. Laboratory examination revealed a blood glucose level of 270 mg/dL and an HbA1c level of 9.4%. The barium swallow study revealedno abnormalities. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed esophageal candidiasis. Electromyography showed more than 20% decremental response of the orbicularis oculi muscle. This result is suggestive of neuromuscular junction disorder. Improvement of the condition was achieved after the administration of intravenous steroids and oral pyridostigmine combined with therapeutic plasma exchange.
Discussion: Oropharyngeal dysphagia accompanied by ptosis and positive Wartenberg & dysarthria counting test is suggestive of myasthenia gravis. Although an AChR antibody test cannot be performed, significant electromyography alongside relevant clinical presentation is sufficient to diagnose myasthenia gravis.
Conclusion: It is crucial to recognize the accompanying signs and symptoms of oropharyngeal dysphagia. EMG may be used to diagnose MG in the appropriate clinical context.

Samples were collected from three distinct areas with different traffic densities: Campus C of Universitas Airlangga, Menur Road, and Prapen Road. Lead (Pb) content was analyzed using atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). The results revealed that the average lead (Pb) content absorbed by Tabebuia aurea leaves due to vehicle emissions was 1.06 mg/kg at Campus C, 1.78 mg/kg at Menur Road, and 2.35 mg/kg at Prapen Road. Stomatal density in Tabebuia aurea leaves was found to be 119.25 ± 3.605 stomata/mm² at Campus C, 123.88 ± 1.000 stomata/mm² at Menur Road, and 140.92 ± 7.211 stomata/mm² at Prapen Road. These findings suggest that stomatal density in Tabebuia aurea leaves is lower on Menur Road compared to Prapen Road but higher than at Campus C. This indicates a positive correlation between stomatal density and lead (Pb) content in Tabebuia aurea leaves.
