Implementation of Tikanga Māori in Animal Euthanasia Teaching
Authors: Dale Arnja , Walker Jessica , Perrott John
Published: April 2022

One of the core functions of being an Animal Welfare Inspector is to mitigate animal suffering, pain and distress; a common method of which is through euthanising animals. Animal cadavers are used to teach euthanasia techniques to students studying towards the Certificate in Animal Welfare Investigations at Unitec Institute of Technology. This programme attracts a multi-cultural student body. Working with animal cadavers can be emotionally challenging and requires cultural sensitivity. This article reports on a number of tikanga Māori strategies incorporated for the first time. These uphold the principles of Unitec’s Te Noho Kotahitanga, as well as the 2nd article of the Tiriti o Waitangi (Treaty of Waitangi). This has allowed for this animal euthanasia teaching to ensure Māori-centred support is provided and the teaching is culturally relevant. Feedback on these tikanga Māori initiatives has been very positive in: acknowledging the value and integrity of Māori knowledge and practice, therefore evidencing a commitment to such key elements of Māoritanga; developing effective student-teacher relationships; and unlocking the science and innovation potential of Māori people and resources to the benefit of all New Zealand. In addition, incorporating tikanga Māori into our teaching has led to: increasing cultural awareness and competency of staff and students, and providing culturally safe support for Māori students.

METHODOLOGY OF WRITING SCIENTIFIC ARTICLES BY STUDENTS OF HIGHER PEDAGOGICAL INSTITUTIONS
Authors: Protas O.
Published: April 2022

Nowadays the urgent problem of education is the training of high-level specialists. To solve this problem, modern HEIs not only implement an educational program in a particular field of knowledge and specialty, but also offer students to engage in scientific research.

Research activity is characterized as a type of intellectual activity aimed at developing the creative potential of the learner. It is an opportunity for self-development and self-realization in professional activities. As a rule, one of the main results of a researcher's scientific work is a qualifying thesis. Still, intermediate or final results can be presented in the form of scientific articles published in professional journals.

Provided that the institutions of higher education train highly qualified pedagogical specialists, the methodology of preparation and writing of scientific articles has its own specifics. It has to meet all the requirements for research articles at the legislative level.

The stages of writing an academic article are well-known, but, depending on the issue of the scientific research, it can be pedagogical or professional direction. In the case when the article is pedagogical, the main emphasis is on the peculiarities of integration into the educational process of the latest technologies and methods. If the article has a proessional focus, it provides a description of the results of the implementation of a particular educational methodology or technology during its study in a particular discipline.

The results of researche can be accumulated and considered in various aspects and presented in the form of scientific articles. This knowledge will allow the future teachers not only to obtain the appropriate level of education while studying at the institute, but also will create the basis for acquiring scientific knowledge and self-realization in further scientific work.

Published: April 2022

Background: Occupational diseases can be prevented by implementing the appropriate occupational health and safety measures against occupational hazards in the workplace. Unfamiliarity with and mis-management of occupational diseases by physicians is often linked to inadequate medical training. This study aims to investigate medical students' awareness of, knowledge and attitudes towards oc-cupational health, exposure to occupational hazards, and preventive measures.Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted with medical students between March and June 2021. Due to the introduction of online education during the COVID-19 pandemic, the questionnaire was sent to the students in the electronic medium. The data analysis was performed with SPSS (version 21). Pearson chi-square test and Fisher's exact test were used for the comparison of the categorical variables for two independent groups.Results: Of the 547 medical students who participated in the study, 56.7% (n= 310) were female, and 43.3% (n=257) were male. The median age was 22 (18-30) years. Of the students, 29.4% (n=161) were attending the preclinical classes, 27.8% (n=152) were 6th-year, 21.9% (n=120) were 4th-year, and 20.8% (n=114) were 5th-year. Of the participants, 12.2% (n=67) scored their level of knowledge about the perceived occupational diseases 1 out of 5, 40% (n=219) scored 2 out of 5, 38.6% (n=211) scored 3 out of 5, 9.1% (n=50) scored 4 out of 5. It was found that the level of knowledge increased with the class level.Conclusions: This study showed that the medical students' knowledge about occupational diseases is at a moderate level, and it is essential to offer a dedicated course on occupational diseases during medical training in order to increase their knowledge about these diseases.

Indonesia is a country with the largest Muslim population in the world, it can be seen from 85.1% of the Indonesian population who are Muslim. This research was designed with a qualitative approach. To obtain facts from the existing symptoms and seek factual information. A qualitative approach is used to describe complex realities in the field and to obtain the accuracy of facts in the field with the right interpretation. This research was carried out in the Islamic Economics Festival (FESyar) (7/10) entitled Empowerment of Zakat in the Era of Society 5.0. In a publication published by BAZNAS, zakat is a tool to control the increase in GDP and reduce economic inequality. The 2019 data shows a slowdown in economic growth with a decline in the level of public consumption. This continues in 2020 with the addition of the pandemic and recession. This is evidenced by the significant increase in Indonesian society carried out by BAZNAZ in the withdrawal of Zakat, Infaq and Alms funds in 2020. During the pandemic, the community's economic income was reduced. Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. But in reality the funds went up. One of the factors that make this increase happen is because there are. A persuasive da'wah approach or da'wah that directly presents a phenomenon. Poverty or the impact of a pandemic that makes the poor poorer. With this fact makes the community mutual help each other. In micro and macro economic policies, it has fulfilled the elements that there is inflation from the impact of the pandemic and there is a significant increase in the ZISWAF funds.
Lembaga Pemberdayaan Umat sebagai Aspek Reformatif Ekonomi Islam
Authors: Ningsih Fuji Fitria
Published: April 2022

Changes that are hard to control are called development. Development is one of the solutions to the alleviation of poverty issues. Even Cambert argued that poverty actually lies in the so-called poverty trap (deprivation trap). The elements that exist in the deprivation trap are: the poverty itself, physical weakness, alienation or isolation, vulnerability and powerlessness. Normally, a number of creative institutions are provided to help those who are completely unable to support themselves. One of these institutions is an empowerment institution with the aim of developing the potential of the community by giving them motivation and counselling. The current study is trying to describe deeper about Islamic empowerment institutions as a reformative aspect of the ummah (community). This study collected the data by studying related scientific texts about the community empowerment institutions and Religious Studies and conducting field research. Therefore, the primary data were taken from the textbooks, articles, websites, news events, al-Qur'an and al-Hadith as well as various opinions from experts and scholars. In addition, data were also collected from the program implementations of the community empowerment institutions. Islam perceives society as a system which components/individuals need and support each other. Relationship among individuals in the community is ideally mutually beneficial. The economic gap can be a potential component that can be utilized to foster harmony and brotherhood among the community individuals. Islam encourages the implementation of community empowerment by adhering to 3 main principles, namely the principle of ukhuwwah (brotherhood), the principle of ta'awun (cooperation), and the principle of equality.

Work as a fisherman is dependent on marine resources. However, coastal communities still live in poverty and the increasingly sharp inequality is very prominent in fishing communities, where a group of people really enjoy the results of fish resources. This group is those who have modern fishing gear such as trawlers and the like that are supported by a mountain of protection and permits. On the other hand, most of them, namely traditional fishermen, still live in poverty. Efforts to build and improve the quality of life of all citizens of the nation, including fishermen, both socially, economically and are our common goals. This study will discuss how the strategy of increasing the income of coastal communities in meeting the needs of life. These strategies 1) Build and strengthen social institutions that are owned or existing in the community and develop the quality of human resources. 2) Assistance from the government for coastal communities Until now, the government has actually disbursed programs to overcome fishermen's poverty, such as aid package programs such as Small Investment Credit (KIK), Permanent Working Capital Credit (KMKP) and Bimas credit as mentioned above. . 3) Role of Extension Institutions Community empowerment efforts are expected to be able to play a role in improving the quality of human resources, especially in the form and change people's behavior to achieve a better standard of living. Poverty that occurs in traditional fishermen is caused by 3 (three) very influential factors, namely: 1) the quality of human resources 2) Economic factors; and 3) institutional factors. Poverty in coastal communities is natural and cultural poverty, consumptive lifestyles and the existence of the influence of prevailing customs and cultures. Lazy attitude is characterized by low utilization of free time when not going to sea. Fishermen prefer to use their free time with activities that are less economically productive.
A foldable underwater acoustic meta-structure with broadband sound absorption at low frequency
Authors: Ke Yibo , Li Zhaoyu , Wu Guanghua , Zhang Lin , Tao Meng
Published: April 2022

An underwater absorber consisting of a microperforated panel, foldable channel and rubber coating with perfect low-frequency sound absorption, broadband absorption and strong resistance to deformation is presented. The theoretical prediction and simulation analysis are in good agreement. It is demonstrated that sound energy is mainly dissipated in the rubber coating due to waveform conversion at the coupling boundary. A meta-structure with low-frequency and broadband absorption is realized by optimizing the structural parameters. Moreover, at a relatively regulated low-frequency wavelength, the spatial folded structure enables a deep subwavelength dimension. The proposed meta-structure has wide potential applications in underwater noise control.
Generation of synthetic Point Clouds for MEMS LiDAR Sensor
Authors: Berens Felix , Elser Stefan , Reischl Markus
Published: April 2022

Sensory data is essential for the training of methods in autonomous driving like object detection, odometry, or SLAM. MEMS LiDAR sensors can be very valuable for autonomous vehicles because they are less prone to shock and wear compared to motorized optomechanical LiDAR sensors. Recording real-world data is complicated and expensive. An alternative is simulated data, but for MEMS LiDAR sensors there is no publicly available software to simulate this type of sensor. With this paper, we introduce a method to simulate data recorded by a MEMS LiDAR sensor like the Blickfeld Cube~1 (and other MEMS LiDAR sensors as well). For this, we use the open-source autonomous driving simulation environment CARLA (our method is available online\footnote[1]{https://github.com/BerensRWU/MEMS-LiDAR-Generator}). We compare our synthetic point cloud with a real-world point cloud and evaluate the similarity. Moreover, we demonstrate the application of our method on the problem of the optimal sensor configuration.

Synergistic Integration of Machine Learning and Mathematical Optimization for Unit Commitment
Authors: WU JIANGHUA , Luh Peter , Chen Yonghong , Yan Bing , Bragin Mikhail
Published: April 2022

Unit Commitment (UC) is important for power system operations. With increasing challenges, e.g., growing intermittent renewables and intra-hour net load variability, traditional mathematical optimization could be time-consuming. Machine learning (ML) is a promising alternative. However, directly learning good solutions is difficult in view of the combinatorial nature of UC. This paper synergistically integrates ML within our recent decomposition and coordination method of Surrogate Lagrangian Relaxation to learn “good enough” subproblem solutions of deterministic UC. Compared to original UC, a subproblem is much easier to learn. Nevertheless, predicting good-enough subproblem solutions is still challenging because of the “jumps” of binary decisions and many types of constraints. To overcome these issues, subproblem dimensionality is reduced via aggregating multipliers. Multiplier distributions are novelly specified based on “jumps” for effective learning. Loss functions are innovatively designed to improve prediction qualities. Ordinal Optimization and branch-and-cut are used as backups for unfamiliar cases. Furthermore, online self-learning is seamlessly integrated with offline learning to exploit solutions from daily operations. Results on the IEEE 118-bus system and the Polish 2383-bus system demonstrate that continual learning keeps on improving the subproblem-solving process with near-optimality of the overall solutions maintained. Our method opens a new direction to solve complicated UC. 
The politics of washoku: Japan’s gastronationalism and gastrodiplomacy
Authors: Farina Felice
Published: April 2022

In this paper, we will explore the political construction of washoku by analyzing Japan’s recent strategy of gastronationalism and gastrodiplomacy. We will argue that the definition of washoku, as inscribed in the UNESCO’s International Cultural Heritage List in 2013, is the result of a process of invention of tradition whose aim is to homogenize and preserve national identity and project this identity abroad. While emphasizing the role of food as an essential element of national identity, we will also show that the promotion of washoku is also motivated by the need to address several issues of broader domestic politics. Starting from the assumption that Japan’s low food self-sufficiency rate could be improved only by increasing the demand for Japanese food, the government implemented a strategy of promotion of washoku at home (gastronationalism) and abroad (gastrodiplomacy) in order to increase both the domestic consumption of traditional food and the export of agrifood products.
Limb Body Wall Complex: A Case Report
Authors: Zahra, Louzali Fatima , S Badsi , N Benaouicha , A Lakhdar , A Baydada
Published: April 2022

Limb-body wall complex (LBWC) is a rare, congenital defect defined by lateral body-wall defects, limb reduction abnormalities and/or craniofacial defects. The developmental pathogenesis as well as the etiology of LBW complex is controversial and has no sex or familial predilection. The poor prognosis of LBWC necessitates an early antenatal diagnosis. Serum alpha-fetoprotein measurement and ultrasonographic examination is the key to prenatal diagnosis. Prenatally, the abnormal fetoplacental attachment can be detected ultrasonographically by the end of the first gestational trimester. Postnatal, the examination of placenta, umbilical cord and membranes is crucial in confirming the diagnosis of LBWC. The present case is associated with amniotic adhesive bands, thoraco-abdominoschisis, minor encephalocele, and belongs to the category of LBWC with craniofacial defects.
Ovarian Ectopic Pregnancy: A Rare Entity of Extrauterine Pregnancy (A Case Report)
Authors: Zahra Louzali Fatima , S Badsi , N Benaouicha , A Lakhdar , A Baydada
Published: April 2022

Ovarian ectopic pregnancy is a rare condition that carries an immediate risk of life-threatening hemorrhage and subsequent risks of infertility and recurrence. Clinicians should be well equipped to diagnose and treat this unusual form of ectopic pregnancy at the earliest .The incidence of ovarian pregnancy is increasing due to the rising incidence of infertility and the use of assisted reproductive technologies. The diagnosis is often made during surgery and requires histological confirmation. Ultrasound can detect ovarian gestations in unruptured cases but cannot easily differentiate an ovarian pregnancy from another tubal pregnancy in a ruptured state. A conservative surgical approach remains the treatment of choice. In cases of ovarian pregnancy after early surgical treatment of the disease, the success rates of future pregnancies are considered very satisfactory. We report here an unusual case of ovarian ectopic pregnancy. Our patient is a 26-year-old nulliparous woman, with no particular history. Ruptured ovarian pregnancy was suspected by endovaginal echography. A laparotomy was performed urgently, showing a ruptured ovarian ectopic pregnancy, and a wedge-shaped resection of the ovary was performed. Histopathological examination confirmed that it was an ovarian ectopic pregnancy.

Introduction: The main objective was to determine the maternal and fetal consequences of severe anemia in pregnancy at the maternity ward of the Kalabancoro Reference Health Center. Methods: Our descriptive cross-sectional study with prospective data collection was conducted from January 1, 2019 to September 30, 2019 at the maternity ward of the Kalabancoro Health Center. Eligible patients were all consenting pregnant women presenting for prenatal consultation or in the delivery room in which the diagnosis of severe anemia was retained. The anemia was considered severe when the hemoglobin level was less than 7 g/dl and/or with clinical manifestations of decompensation of the anemia. Data were processed and analyzed by SPSS 12 software. Results: A total of 161 cases out of 2010 pregnant women were recruited and treated at the Kalabancoro Health Center, which represents a prevalence of 8% of severe anemia in pregnancy. The 14-19 year age group was the most representative, i.e. 52.2% of pregnant women, with extremes of 14 to 35 years and over. Malaria was the most predominant etiology with 31.05% followed by blood spoliation 25.47% and malaria plus malnutrition 14.29%. Prematurity represented 5% of cases. Maternal death was 1.9%. Low birth weight was 16.7% and stillbirths represented 3.7%. Conclusion: Severe anemia in pregnancy remains, through its complications, one of the most dreaded pathologies. Thus, a prospective analytical study is necessary to better study the causes of severe anemia in pregnancy.

Linum usitatissimum commercially known as Flax or flaxseed is mainly considered as an oilseed crop all over the globe belonging to the family Linaceae. Flax was valued in Ancient and Early Modern times as both food and medicine. Linseed has an important position in the Indian economy due to its wide industrial utility. In recent years, it emerged as a main key resource of phytochemicals in nutritional and functional aspects of human health. Moreover, due to other nutritional considerations than its oil content, make it a more favorable choice for food technologists and nutritionists to develop it as a functional food. Several studies divulge that these ingredients work well for nutritional advantage for human beings. Scientific evidence suggests and supports flaxseed consumption due to its quality proteins, soluble fibers, and a rich source of phenolic compounds. However, a large sector of the population all over the globe is still unaware of the health benefits supplementary to its consumption and its possible applications as useful food ingredients in food and food products. Flaxseed is mainly known for its high alpha-linolenic acid content, but it is also a rich source of lignan, compounds which are biologically active in the prevention of some chronic diseases. Flaxseed dietary fiber exhibits positive effects to reduce constipation, keep better bowel movement, and as a hypocholesterolemic agent. Over and above, numerous researchers reported that flaxseed incorporated food products can have good customer adequacy along with their nutritional welfares.
Loneliness and its Relationship with Diabetes Mellitus
Authors: Agarwal Shashi K.
Published: April 2022

Loneliness is highly prevalent globally and has been noted in all age groups. Loneliness is associated with significant physical and mental health risks. These individuals have a poor quality of life. Lonely individuals also demonstrate a high mortality rate and incur more health care costs. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). a common chronic disease. Worldwide, it is expected to affect 629 individuals in 2045. Several studies have established an incriminating role of loneliness in the pathogenesis and progression of T2DM. It is estimated that the risk of developing a high HbA1c is almost fivefold in lonely people. This increased risk is independent of other confounding factors. Although increased inflammation and reduced immunity play a role, the main mechanism appears to be an increase in the hypothalamic-pituitary adrenocortical activity. Loneliness also increases unhealthy lifestyles, which also contribute to this deleterious loneliness-diabetes link. Lonely people are also more burdened with chronic diseases, which further increase the diabetic risk and its worsening. They also tend to be more non-adherent to healthcare recommendations. On the other hand, diabetic patients face a multitude of issues with daily living and healthcare, and these tend to increase loneliness. The causative factors and their mechanisms underlying this bidirectional relationship between loneliness and T2DM is narratively reviewed in this manuscript.

Anak berkebutuhan khusus pada umumnya mengalami perilaku maladaptive dan berpemgaruh pada gangguan fungsional yang signifikan. Sehingga Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) diperlukan untuk mengakomodasi atau memulihkan defisit keterampilan sosial dan adaptif anak-anak berkebutuhan khusus yang dapat menimbulkan hambatan untuk meminimalisir perilaku maladaptive pada anak berkebutuhan khusus. Gangguan kecemasan telah ditemukan sangat komorbiditas dengan gangguan spektrum autisme (ASD). Guru dan orang tua dapat dilatih tentang prosedur pembinaan sosial sederhana yang menggunakan metode pembelajaran pada aspek komunikasi sehingga aspek perilaku maladaptif tidak begitu mendapatkan intervensi secara khusus. Permasalahan utama yang dihadapi pada penerapan CBT adalah kurangnya kompetensi guru dan terapis dalam menerapkan metode dan pendekatan lain yang fokus pada aspek gangguan perilaku kognitif anak dengan disabilitas. Solusi yang direncanakan untuk mengatasi permasalahan tersebut adalah memberikan pelatihan dengan muatan materi tentang analisis perubahan tingkah laku dan penerapan program CBT (Coginitive Behavioral Therapy) terintegrasi.

Bail Nullification
Authors: Simonson Jocelyn
Published: April 2022

This Article explores the possibility of community nullification beyond the jury by analyzing the growing and unstudied phenomenon of community bail funds, which post bail for strangers based on broader beliefs regarding the overuse of pretrial detention. When a community bail fund posts bail, it can serve the function of nullifying a judge’s determination that a certain amount of the defendant’s personal or family money was necessary to ensure public safety and prevent flight. This growing practice—what this Article calls “bail nullification”—is powerful because it exposes publicly what many within the system already know to be true: that although bail is ostensibly a regulatory pretrial procedure, for indigent defendants it often serves the function that a real trial might, producing guilty pleas and longer sentences when an individual cannot afford to pay their bail. By examining the ways in which community bail funds serve the functions that a nullifying jury might—allowing popular participation in an individual case to facilitate larger resistance to the policies and practices of state actors—this Article argues that community bail funds have the potential to change how local criminal justice systems operate on the ground, shifting and shaping political and constitutional understandings of the institution of money bail. Community bail funds give a voice to populations who rarely have a say in how criminal justice is administered, especially poor people of color. And the study of bail funds helps point toward other ways in which bottom-up public participation can help create a criminal justice system that is truly responsive to the communities that it is ultimately supposed to serve.
Restoring Trade’s Social Contract
Authors: Meyer Timothy , Garcia Frank
Published: April 2022

As we write this, U.S. trade policy is falling into deeper and deeper disarray. The United States, Canada, and Mexico are holding frenzied meetings to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). As recently as October 11, 2017, President Donald Trump warned that he will withdraw the United States from NAFTA if he does not get a deal that is “fair” to American workers. Indeed, the Trump Administration has already pulled the United States out of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), threatened to withdraw from the United States-Korea Free Trade Agreement (KORUS), and is holding the World Trade Organization (WTO)’s vaunted dispute resolution process hostage to its demands for change.

When modern U.S. trade policy was born in 1962, President Kennedy’s new trade-negotiation authority was explicitly linked to innovative domestic measures addressing harmed workers.[12] And during the original NAFTA negotiations, Mexico and the United States created and committed to funding the North American Development Bank to invest in projects along the Mexico-U.S. border—a precedent for coupling free trade agreements with international cooperation to ameliorate the costs of such agreements. It is time to build on that history and seize this opportunity to not only get NAFTA back on track, but put NAFTA at the forefront of addressing social inequalities through trade agreements. We begin in Part I by explaining the social contract of trade—a bargain whereby trade liberalization occurs in a way that ensures the least well off among us are, at a minimum, not harmed. Parts II and III explain how contemporary trade policy can reclaim that vision.
