Published: June 2024

The ability to use both sides of feet in association football, or so-called soccer in some countries, is highly valued, and therefore professional athletes rigorously train their non-dominant foot to perform effectively on the pitch. However, a subject that relates that players’ laterality aspect to the overall quality of the league of a given country has not yet been widely explored. This paper discusses the subject through a data analytics approach, leveraging the abundance of publicly available football datasets to describe interesting phenomena through data visualizations. In the present study, the foot laterality measure is represented by the percentage of left-footed scored goals and league’s overall quality by the market values of players. Results show that in general, leagues with higher market values have higher rates of left-footed goals. The findings in this work agree with those in past research conducted with other methods, hence confirming the validity of data analytics based on the crowdsourced football data. This research intends to emphasize the potential of data science in sport sector and motivate the football professionals to use big data to fine-tune their physical training methods and sport psychology approaches.

Improving Time-To-Degree of Health Sciences Students through Adapted Postgraduate Student Support Initiatives: An Initial Evaluation
Authors: Vuuren Corlia Janse van , Smith Robyn
Published: June 2024

Postgraduate student progression and attainment remains a measure of success for universities. Postgraduate student support is important to improve retention and time-to-degree. South Africa has poor postgraduate student output and the literature on integrated postgraduate support strategies remains scarce in this context. This paper describes the development of an integrated postgraduate student support programme for health sciences students at a South African university. Furthermore, it provides an initial evaluation of the influence of the programme on the postgraduate students’ progression from time-of-entry to pivotal milestones, compared to the progression of students prior to the implementation of the programme. Institutional demographic and school-specific data on the time taken to achieve pivotal milestones for 65 postgraduate students were included in this descriptive analytical study. The sample consisted of 50 master’s and 15 doctoral degree students. A comparative analysis was conducted using quantitative progression data for the master’s 2018/2019 cohort (prior to intervention implementation) (n=28) and the 2020/2021 cohort (after intervention implementation) (n=22). The support strategies implemented almost halved the time from entry to evaluation committee (i.e. research protocol approval committee) (mean 7.3 months) and final ethical approval (mean 14.5 months) for the 2020/2021 cohort. The current limited analysis found the time-to-submission for the 2020/2021 cohort (mean 33.6 months) (n=7) comparable to that of the 2018/2019 cohort (mean 37.4 months)(n=28). Ongoing mapping and analysis of time-to-pivotal-milestones is necessary to identify the barriers and facilitators to achieving sequential pivotal milestones. The initial evaluation indicates that a variation in the type, format, and timing of support interventions is needed to reduce time-to-degree.

Published: June 2024

Augmented reality (AR) technology has gained popularity among educators over the past decade in line with the development of Industrial Revolution 4.0 and the 21st century learning concept. Previous studies have provided evidence that students’ engagement in AR, in general, facilitates the development of problem-solving skills required in the field of education. However, there has been a lack of systematic research on the correlation between AR technologies and learning strategies, as well as the problem-solving methods utilized. Therefore, this study aimed to examine types of AR technologies utilized and their integration with learning strategies and problem-solving methods employed in education. The methodology of this study involved employing the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) approach, based on references from reputable online databases, namely Web of Science, Scopus, and ScienceDirect. The study analyzed publications from 2018 to 2023, with a total of 14 selected articles (N = 14). The findings show that the most popular type of AR technology was marker-based AR. In addition, the most dominant learning strategy was problem-based learning (PBL), with the specific problem-solving approach being the computational thinking approach. In conclusion, these findings will provide guidance regarding the types of AR technologies that have been integrated with learning strategies and problem-solving methods. By identifying the limitations of the analyzed AR technologies and learning strategies, new research opportunities can emerge, focusing on integrating emerging AR technologies with problemsolving methods that may be more effective in the learning process.

MODELING OF HETEROGENEOUS TUMOR DYNAMICS. THE INFLUENCE OF PROTON IRRADIATION ONLY AND IN COMBINATION WITH DNA SYNTHESIS INHIBITOR – ARAC
Authors: Lesovaya E. , Sadykova O. , Lobachevsky P.
Published: June 2024

Interpretation of the growth of a malignant tumor and its response to therapeutic treatment requires consideration of its heterogeneity, taking into account the presence in it of a small subpopulation of tumor stem cells along with ordinary tumor cells. In present work, a mathematical model is proposed that combines two basic concepts of the theory of tumor growth - stochastic growth and the presence of a subpopulation of tumor stem cells. The model is a system of ordinary differential equations that describes the dynamics of subpopulations of tumor cells, taking into account different types of division and transitions between them. An important feature of the system is the maintenance of the equilibrium proportion of tumor stem cells in an unirradiated tumor using feedback. The model was used to interpret experimental data on inhibition of tumor growth after protons irradiation at a dose of 10 Gy only and the combined treatment of irradiation and the inhibitor of DNA synthesis AraC in laboratory mice with grafted melanoma B16. The effect of irradiation only and irradiation in combination with AraC is included in the system using a parameter describing the probability of loss of the cell's ability to successfully divide. As a result, the dependence of tumor volume on time calculated for cases without irradiation, after irradiation and after irradiation with AraC serves as a good approximation of experimental data, which makes it possible to evaluate the parameters of the system.

Em sua Radiomensagem Natalícia de 1957, estampada neste fascículo da REB na Secção “Documentação”, Pio XII desenvolve largamente o tema circunscrito por estas três palavras: “Angústia, Confiança e Ação”. Um tema antigo, que, porém, em nossos dias toma aspectos novos. Os imensos horizontes que os progressos científicos e técnicos abrem ao homem levam a modificações profundas da vida e da ação, reclamando assim um reajuste de atitudes e de comportamentos que não pode deixar de atingir a vida cristã. O tema engloba o assunto importante da atitude do cristão diante das realidades terrestres e de sua ação respectiva. As frentes que se formam diante das realidades terrestres apresentam os extremos dos homens que estão inteiramente absorvidas por elas e dos cristãos que negam a missão terrestre do cristianismo...

Published: June 2024

Bread wheat is cultivated in a wide range of high and mid-altitude areas of Ethiopia ranking 4th in area coverage and 2nd in productivity. Although many improved bread wheat varieties have been released nationally and regionally, these varieties are not well disseminated and popularized. In southern Ethiopia “Gamo” district, there is only little bread wheat variety under production which is risky if there would be an occurrence of new diseases and other stresses. To alleviate such a crop’s potential challenge, recently released bread wheat varieties were tested for their phenotypic performance to confirm their environmental adaptation. The average productivity of the tested genotypes were evaluated at three locations (Dita, Kamba and Bonke) using randomized complete block design with three replication for two consecutive years (2020/21 to 2021/22).The experimental material consists of ten improved bread wheat genotypes including standard check. The Combined analysis of variance showed significant (P<0.05) difference among tested genotypes on collected parameters except spike length and productive tiller number indicating the presence of adequate variability among the tested genotypes. The highest combined mean grain yield recorded was 3789.5kg ha-1 from Bondena variety while the lowest obtained was 2797.5 kg ha-1 from Lemu variety.

Authors: Mujiono  , Sujianto
Published: June 2024

The findings of observations conducted at the Home Industry indicate that one of the procedures that is thought to be highly significant is the stage of coffee bean peel separation. The lengthy process of separating coffee beans involves two separate machines; the first machine is still used to mix the peel and coffee beans, and the second machine is used to clean any remaining peel mixture. To solve the issues mentioned above and increase production, the time and motion study method as one of the methods of designing machine operator work systems, is used. It is accompanied by data uniformity tests, data adequacy tests, and cycle time, standard time, and standard output measurements. The design of this coffee peeling machine is to design a combination of machine one and machine two using anthropometric measurements including: standing elbow height, hand reach forward, sideways hand reach, standing navel height, standing knee height. The standard time for the existing machine is 23.87 seconds per kg, while the standard time for the new machine is 12.60 seconds per kg. The existing machine's standard output is 151.2 kg per hour, while the new machine's standard output is 216 kg per hour, resulting in an 89% increase in productivity.

The goal of periodontal treatment is to reduce inflammation and regenerate the defects. As the structure of periodontium is composed of four types of different tissue (cementum, alveolar bone periodontal ligament, and gingiva), the regeneration should allow different cell proliferation in the separated spaces. However, it was difficult to achieve. Need a barrier membrane for epithelial exclusion to promote the healing of periodontal tissues in such a way that the original structure and function are preserved instead of repairing with junctional epithelium. During the occlusive period, the cells including cementoblast, osteoblast, osteoclast, and mesenchymal cells from PDL are activated to rebuild their missing tissues. The human amniotic membrane (HAM) has been used as a barrier membrane in furcation defects, intrabony defects, and gingival recession coverage. The HAM is associated with several problems, such as difficulty in finding donors, so that insufficient to provide mass production for this material. The use of HAM has also led to legal and religious concerns because they must be extracted from the human body. Therefore, the use of Bovine Amniotic Membrane (BAM) as an alternative might address the above limitations, making mass production possible without the ethical concerns of using human material.

Dorsal dislocation of the interphalangeal joint (IPJ) of the great toe is quite rare, and it results from a hyperextension injury to the joint. Closed reduction is often attempted in the emergency setting, but this measure is seldom successful because of invagination of the sesamoid-plantar plate complex into the interphalangeal space. Generally, open reduction is indicated when closed reduction fails. The literrature is poor regarding this problem, and there are very few articles that relate to this issue. We report in this article two cases of an unreductible IPJ of the hallux due to its chronicity, which needed a surgical treatment by a bone fixation using K-wires followed by a capsulodesis. The two patients had a good result after one year of follow-up.

Published: June 2024

Objective: The purpose of this research is to determine the effect of COVID-19 disease and COVID-19 vaccines on patients with dyshidrosis. Methods: The effects of COVID-19 disease and vaccines on dyshidrosis disease were investigated. It was asked whether dyshidrosis occurred or its severity increased after COVID-19 disease or vaccinations. Information was obtained from the patients by phone who came to our dermatology clinic one year before and three years after March 11, 2020. Additionally, atopic dermatitis, allergic contact dermatitis, food allergies, fungal infection, sun exacerbation, stress, hyperhidrosis, irritating substances/water contact, and smoking were questioned and evaluated whether the COVID-19 pandemic affected these conditions. Results: 59 patients were involved in the study. 29 of them caught COVID-19 disease. There were not any changes of dyshidrosis in 20 patients who caught COVID-19, exacerbation in 5 patients, and first occurred in 4 patients. 38 patients received the COVID-19 vaccine. There were not any changes of dyshidrosis in 25 patients who received the vaccine, exacerbation in 7 patients, first occurred in 4 patients, and reduction in 2 patients. When patients before and after March 11, 2020 were compared, only smoking was found to be significantly higher during the pandemic among the factors related to dyshidrosis. Conclusion: COVID-19 disease and vaccines appeared to be among the factors that cause or increase dyshidrosis, but patch tests are required to eliminate allergic contact dermatitis causing dyshidrosis as hand washing and sanitizer use was increased in the pandemic period.

Published: June 2024

Levamisole was originally used as an anthelmintic to treat worm infestations in both humans and animals. Two simple UV spectrophotometric methods have developed for determination of levamisole in bulk and formulations. The absorption maxima (λmax) of levamisole was found to be 216nm in 0.1 N HCl and in double distilled water observed at 215 nm and Beer-Lambert’s law was obeyed over the concentration range 2-10µg/ml.LOD and LOQ values of levamisole was found to be 0.125 µg/ml, 0.416 µg/ml and 0.098 µg/ml, 0.326µg/ml in 0.1 N HCl and double distilled water respectively. The validation parameters were treated statistically with ‘t’ test and significant differences were observed. The study clearly revealed that the solvents influence the determination of levamisole. The methods developed were rapid and easily can be applied for the estimation of levamisole in bulk and pharmaceutical formulations.

fragmentary information about early epic forms and their samples has been preserved in monographs and articles by foreign and Russian scholars, collectors from the XIX – early XX centuries. These are the epic narrative “Kalmez Bakatyryos” (The Kalmez Knights), recorded by the Hungarian scholar Bernát Munkácsi in 1885. There is scant and scattered information about the informant from whom this text was recorded and about the history of its recording. Generalizations of these data are made in this work, as well as the role of the analyzed epic narrative and other similar texts in the creation of their author’s epics by Udmurt poets is revealed. Objective: to present the history of recording the fragment of the Udmurt epic narrative “Kalmez Bakatyryos”. Research materials: the fragment of the Udmurt folk epic “Kalmez Bakatyryos”, recorded by the Hungarian scholar in the end of the XIX century. Results and novelty of the research: the relevance of the research theme is due to the fact that the epic creativity of the Udmurt people still remains the least studied area of the Udmurt humanities. The scientific novelty of the article lies in the 35 Bulletin of Ugric Studies. Vol. 14. № 1 (56). 2024. fact that for the first the systematization of the material, related to the history of recording by Bernát Munkácsi of the sample of the Udmurt epic “Kalmez Bakatyryos” is carried out. As a result of the conducted research, new data were introduced into scientific circulation, including updated information about the Udmurt seminarian N. Ivanov escorting the Hungarian scientist throughout the expedition. Ivanov was the editor of folklore texts. The reconstruction of the history of the recording of the epic fragment “Kalmez Bakatyryos” allowed us to conclude that N. Ivanov edited this work. This proposition is justified by many researchers. These arguments allowed us to put forward the hypothesis that the text is literary processed. It cannot be considered purely folklore, but at the same time its authentic character cannot be ignored. It is summarized that in the future the theme of the heroic epic found its continuation in the works of Udmurt poets.

the presented article is a comprehensive study of parenthetical words in the Livvik dialect of the newly written Karelian language. Within the framework of the study, the authors turn to the consideration of semantics, etymology and functioning of modal words in the newly written Livvik dialect of the Karelian language. Objective: to study the semantic groups and etymology of the subjective modal components of a sentence functioning in the Livvik dialect of the Karelian language. Research materials: textbooks and dictionaries of the Livvik dialect of the newly written Karelian language. Results and novelty of the research: the article proposes a functional and semantic classification and etymological analysis of Karelian parenthetical modal words. In the Livvik dialect of the Karelian language about 40 parenthetical elements collected in newly written Karelian dictionaries are recorded. The data obtained in the process of studying dictionary materials on the Livvik dialect make it possible to distinguish 5 categories of parenthetical words by their meaning, of which the richest in composition of lexemes is the class intended to express varying degrees of reliability of a statement; other semantic subgroups (expressing a link to the source of a message, a call to an interlocutor, logical connections in a text, the emotional state of a speaker) demonstrate a much more modest segment of the field of subjective-modal collocations in the Livvik dialect of the Karelian language in terms of the number of units recorded in the dictionaries. The etymological analysis of parenthetical modal words showed that parentheses expressing the speaker’s assessment of his statement are in the process of their formation, replenishment with new lexemes; the formation of parenthetical modal phraseology is largely accomplished through syntactic derivation as the transition of notional words (names and verbs) into the class of parenthetical modal ones. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that a semantic classification of parenthetical constructions of the Livvik dialect is proposed based on data from newly written dictionary sources, as well as observations in the field of etymology of parenthetical modal words.

Published: June 2024

Electronic Government, or E-Government, is an information and communication application system that is increasingly being adopted in the government sector in line with technological advancements. The utilization of information technology in governance aids in simplifying the execution of governmental functions as providers of public services. This study delves into the changes or reforms implemented by the TPI Denpasar Class I Immigration Office, under the auspices of the Directorate General of Immigration, utilizing technological advancements in passport services through the M-Paspor digital application. The objective of this study is to analyze the implementation, readiness, inhibiting factors, and evaluate the usage of the M-Paspor application at the Immigration Office Class I TPI Denpasar. The method employed in this study is a qualitative approach with data collection through observation, interviews, and document studies. The study's outcomes reveal that the readiness to implement service through the M-Paspor application at the Denpasar Immigration Office is still suboptimal in accordance with the E-Government Readiness theoretical framework. Factors such as communication infrastructure, connectivity levels, human resource readiness, budget allocation, legal framework, and paradigm shift still require enhancement. Challenges in implementing the M-Paspor application include inadequate application maturity due to frequent disruptions, low employee productivity, societal unpreparedness for change, and uneven information dissemination. Therefore, serious attention from the government is necessary to streamline digital transformation and implement M-Paspor in passport application services. Strategic actions are required to overcome these obstacles and ensure that technology's benefits are maximized in public services.

This research proposes Foucauldian Discourse Analysis (FDA) as an innovative qualitative methodology to investigate the use of social media as a platform of power control through shared opinions. A phenomenon where social media used as a medium for public to express themselves whereas previously was often done physically (offline), is now more likely to be done in digital area through social media. This study found that the main discourse held no more power than the opponent’s discourse in the contestation. In reality, the main discourse weakened and morphed to dampened actions but still could not become a consensus that led to student action on the streets. While the main discourse was powerfully amplified from bottom to center elites, it ultimately resulted in defeat and failed to acquire acceptance or legitimation by society, leading to pseudo-power.
