Authors: Hutami Dinar Tyas , Putro Nur Hidayanto Pancoro Setyo
Published: May 2023

Teachers' language assessment literacy (LAL) is critical to the success of education, the quality of students' learning, and students' willingness to study. Yet, studies on teachers' LAL preparation to face the Merdeka Belajar (Freedom of Learning) curriculum are still scarce. Most LAL studies used questionnaires to assess teachers' knowledge. In contrast to that, this study utilized teachers’ LAL knowledge test adapted from Al-bahlani (2019). This study investigates teachers' self-perceived LAL consisting of competence, frequency of practice, and assessment knowledge in The Association of English Teachers Banyumas district region (MGMP) with a total of 77 participants involved by investigating teachers' self-perceived LAL consisting of competence, frequency of practice, and assessment knowledge. The current study utilized two data sources, including a questionnaire and a language assessment knowledge test to employ a quantitative methodology using MANOVA and Pearson’s product-moment correlation. The results showed both strengths and weaknesses in the teachers’ LAL, as well as matches and mismatches between teachers' self-perceived and shown assessment knowledge. Overall, EFL teachers in Banyumas regency are at a fair level of LAL and pre-service training in assessment was the variable with the greatest impact on teachers' LAL. Future research may also require investigating the objectives, actions, and outcomes of assessment training provided by teachers’ training institutes and professional development programs.  Keywords: LAL, Language assessment, Language Assessment Literacy, Merdeka Belajar curriculum, Freedom of Learning Curriculum.

Published: May 2023

The curricular implementations are represented in the textbook. The textbook is used by all students, who may have varying levels of thinking skill; however, it is a good opportunity to encourage students, regardless of their critical thinking skill level, to not only learn to know and understand, but also to apply, evaluate, and create such a product from their learning. The present study aims to investigates the level of thinking skills employed in the reading parts of EFL textbooks in Indonesia. The Ministry of Education and Culture officially printed the textbook for senior high school students in grade X. Content analysis was used to explore the level and frequency of thinking skills, focusing on the task and reading questions in the textbook. The data were quantitatively displayed in the form of a table. It was gained through the coding process based on the theoretical framework of Low Order Thinking Skills (LOTS) and High Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) introduced by Bloom. It was found that the textbook mostly included knowledge and comprehension levels of thinking in the reading tasks and questions. It means that LOTS-based tasks and questions are more dominant than HOTS.

Contemporary analyses of comparative fishing data: a case study of Thorny skate on the Grand Banks (NAFO Divisions 3LNOP)
Authors:   Centre for Fisheries Ecosystem Research, Fisheries and Marine Institute - Memorial University of Newfoundland, Cadigan Noel , Simpson Mark ,   Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Center
Published: May 2023

We re-analyze Thorny skate data from two comparative fishing experiments conducted by DFO in 1995 and 1996 using improved and more contemporary methods to estimate the relative efficiency of the Campelen 1800 demersal shrimp trawl survey protocol compared to the Engel 145 otter trawl. We correct possible bias in the method previously applied to these data. We investigate if there are size-based differences and if depth or spatial regions have important effects on results. We also investigate the influence and robustness of the estimation procedures, which was a concern in the original analyses of these data for other groundfish species. We did not find strong evidence that the relative efficiency of the Campelen trawl protocol compared to the Engel was different for smaller-sized Thorny skate compared to larger ones. However, we conclude that there is a potential that size-based differential catchability existed but there is insufficient information to reliably estimate these effects for Thorny skate. We also found evidence of significant differences in relative efficiency among NAFO Divisions and experiments, which is similar to other flatfish species. However, the mechanisms for these differences are unknown and it is not clear if spatial estimates should be used when converting Engel indices to Campelen equivalents. Hence, we do not recommend a different Engel-Campelen conversion factor than the one currently used in stock assessments for Thorny skates on the Grand Banks (NAFO Divisions 3LNOPs).
Correlation of Ground Penetrating Radar Data with Geotechnical Prospect Profiles: Reduto Case Study, Belém-PA, Brazil
Authors: Souza Danusa Mayara de , Alcântara Júnior Lyvio Luiz Clávio de
Published: May 2023

The study presented in this manuscript aimed to relate the sedimentary strata imaged by the ground penetrating radar (GPR) method through numerical modeling with the mapping of sedimentary strata acquired through geotechnical surveys. The study aimed to expose how obtaining subsoil information through noninvasive/destructive electromagnetic waves is beneficial, as they are reliable and less costly than drilling holes beyond what is necessary to have a subsurface mapping. In this sense, physical-geological modeling was carried out. The information on the type of sediments, acquired through simple recognition surveys carried out in the city of Belém-PA, helped to create a model of a sedimentary package with its respective intrinsic physical properties. The result shows that the GPR recovered with good vertical and horizontal resolution at the beginning and end of the layers of the sedimentary package studied, proving to be very effective for locating geotechnical sounding points and safely reducing costs.

Investigation of microorganisms for natural product is the new paradigm in drug discovery research. Microorganisms are obtained from different sources for this purpose, and plants are one of these sources. Endophytes usually present in the plant’s cell walls have been confirmed to synthesize secondary metabolites similar or sometimes different from those of their host plants. This movement from plants to their endophytes for potential drug molecules led some researchers in Nigeria to investigate the endophytes (especially fungal endophytes) of some Nigerian medicinal plants for bioactive secondary. The current study tries to summarize the research so far conducted on fungal endophytes of Nigerian medicinal plants, and correlate the endophytes’ secondary metabolites and their pharmacological activities with those of the host plants. To achieve this, research articles written in English were sourced from Google Scholar, PubMed, Science Direct and Scopus from the time scientific study on fungal endophytes started in Nigeria till date. Out of over 7000 plant species in the Nigerian biodiversity, only about only a few have had their endophytes scientifically explored for pharmacological activities and some of them generated novel bioactive compounds.

The purpose of this study was to test the toxicity of a mixture of turmeric and tamarind leaves extract cream using Wistar rats. This study used rats as experimental animals which were carried out in 2 stages, namely preliminary tests using 5 groups of experimental animals. After adaptation the experimental animals were given cream doses of 50, 200, 1000, 2000 mg/kg bw. The second stage was carried out after the results of the first stage showed symptoms of toxicity and death. The second stage used two groups of rats (3 each), namely the treatment group using the largest dose of cream that did not cause death and the control group which was a placebo. In addition, observations of collagen content were also carried out. The results showed that the turmeric and tamarind extract cream did not have toxic properties. The skin of rats that were given turmeric and tamarind extract cream produced higher collagen content and was different from the other groups.

Review of phosphatidylserines health benefits in Parkinson’s disease and students survey
Authors: LaNisha Potts  , Alvina Okafor  , Ayona Shelton  , Bisrat Hailemeskel
Published: May 2023

The goal of this study is two folds: to conduct a literature review of the beneficial use of phosphatidylserine in Parkinson’s Disease (PD) and to determine the knowledge base and opinion of pharmacy students. The literature search that was conducted revealed there are only very few clinical studies found that show the beneficial effect of phosphatidylserine in PD. The students’ survey conducted was among 42 first-year professional pharmacy students. The goal was to gain insight into if they had knowledge of the supplement phosphatidylserine in PD. The survey data was analyzed using SPSS software. Results show that the participants have limited overall knowledge of the topic. The results from the opinion questions also varied highly among the participants. Demographic factors of age, educational level, and work experiences affected the outcome significantly. For example, the higher the age, education level, and number of years worked the more likely the participant believed phosphatidylserine would help with the treatment of PD. A few studies have shown the use of supplements is beneficial for cognitive disorders; however, none are showing the knowledge status of this usage amongst healthcare professionals. Based on studies reviewed, phosphatidylserine may be beneficial in slowing the progression of PD. That may be one of the reasons for the students’ limited knowledge shown in this study.

Published: May 2023

Introduction: Berberine is a naturally occurring alkaloid substance that can be extracted from various plants and can be found in medicinal herbs. The goal of this study is to conduct a literature review of the clinical use of berberine and assess the knowledge and opinion of pharmacy students on its beneficial effect as a blood sugar-reducing supplement. Methodology: An online survey was developed and sent to 42 students with a 100% response rate. The focal point of the remaining 15 questions was based on knowledge and perceptions regarding Berberine. Results: A total of 42 individuals participated in the survey. The majority of the participants were female (64.29%); between 24- 26 years old age range (40.48%); live in the DMV area where the study was conducted (42.86%). When asked about work experience, 50% of those who took the survey answered full-time, and 16 (38.10%) worked part-time. The majority (61.9%) indicated high knowledge about feeling comfortable with the beneficial use of berberine in reducing blood sugar. However, their overall knowledge score was 59.5% which is much less than the passing score set at 70%. When looking at how comfortable participants were regarding dietary supplements, the majority (n=25; 59.5%) were positive in their comfort. But only a third of participants (n=14; 33.3%) had the opportunity to interact with patients to discuss dietary supplements. Interestingly, more than two-thirds (n=29; 69%) of participants had taken supplements in the past for various personal reasons and the majority (n=28; 66.7%) of participants responded that they are currently taking supplements including vitamins. However, because of the low number of participants as a limitation of this study, a larger study with students in the medical field is recommended as a future plan. Conclusion: Overall, students showed a low level of knowledge despite their high opinion. The study shows the need to expose students more to dietary and herbal supplements during their pharmacy program. This would allow them to meet their patients’ needs upon graduation particularly if they chose to practice in a community pharmacy setting.

Male Infertility has been an issue of significant concern affecting an appraised 20-30% of couples worldwide. The study aims to access the hormonal and semen profile following metformin and ethanolic leave extract of Annona muricata (ELAM) on arsenic-induced toxicity in Male Wistar rats. Thirty-male Wistar rats were used in the study, weighing 150-170 grams, and were divided into six groups of five rats each. Group A received 50 mg/kg of arsenic trioxide (As2O3) only. Group B received feed and water ad libitum. Groups C and D received 50mg/kg of As2O3 and were immediately treated with 30 mg/kg of metformin and 500 mg/kg of ELAM. Group E received 500mg/kg of ELAM and treated immediately with As2O3, and group F received 30 mg/kg of metformin and treated immediately with As2O3. Data obtained were subjected to ANOVA followed by post Hoc LSD using SPSS version 25. Semen quality, Testosterone, FSH, LH levels, and gonadal-somatic index were analysed. Values were presented as Mean±SEM and considered significant at p<0.05. The gonadal-somatic index revealed a significant decrease in group D, while groups B, C, E, and F had no significant decrease compared to A. As2O3 treated rats showed impaired sperm motility, morphology, and total sperm count significantly in groups A to B, while groups C, D, E, and F improved sperm motility, morphology, and total sperm count. Testosterone, LH, and FSH showed a significant decline in group A compared to B, except for LH. Groups C, D, E, and F showed a significant increase in testosterone and LH, except group C in FSH. The study concluded that MET and ELAM improved semen quality and hormonal profile, which could be used in the reversing and prevention of male infecundity linked to arsenic trioxide toxicity caused by oxidative stress.

Background: Nephrectomy is the surgical removal of all or part of a diseased kidney in a living person. Pathological assessment of the tissue specimen is required in most cases for eventual diagnosis and disease prognostication. Objective: To demonstrate the pathological patterns of nephrectomy specimens in Nnewi, South East Nigeria. Methods: The data of all the nephrectomy specimens submitted to the Department of Histopathology of the Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital, Nnewi, as well as Triple Green Diagnostic Clinics Ltd, Nnewi, from 2007 to 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Their pathological features were analyzed. Results: Of the 153 nephrectomy specimens, 141 that had complete data were used for the study. Those that had neoplastic lesions were 84(59.6%), while 57(40.4%) were non-neoplastic. Of the neoplastic lesions, 79 (94%) were malignant and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) accounted for 60%, with a mean age of 48.8±18.1 years and median age 52.5 years. RCC occurred commonly in the sixth decade of life (26%) with male preponderance (56%) and predominantly involving the left kidney (64%). Clear cell variant of renal cell carcinoma was the most common (52%), followed by papillary variant (34%). Nephroblastoma was the most common malignancy in the first decade with a modal age of 2years. Chronic pyelonephritis was the most common non-neoplastic lesions. Conclusion: Nephrectomy is done for a wide range of renal pathology, with more done for neoplastic conditions than non-neoplastic ones.

Published: May 2023

Neurodegeneration associated with pantothenate kinase deficiency is a rare disease. To confirm its diagnosis, studies are needed that are often not available in all countries and times (as in this case). Clinical case: In the Child Psychiatry ward of the "Juan Manuel Márquez" Pediatric Hospital, an adolescent was treated with psychiatric disorders of psychotic functioning level with little response to treatment, extrapyramidal manifestations and other progressive neurological dysfunction. The classic image of "tiger eyes" was evidenced by magnetic resonance imaging of the skull, at the beginning unilateral, and at 10 months it was performed again, verifying the bilateral image, in addition to significant cognitive, language, communication and loss of skills deterioration. With regression, affective symptoms and sleep disorder. Conclusions: Although neurodegeneration associated with pantothenate kinase deficiency is a rare disease and in the present case it could only be considered probable, it should be included in the differential diagnosis of children and adolescents with the progression of clinical manifestations, including extrapyramidal dysfunction. dementia, even in the absence of a tiger-eye image at the onset of manifestations or its unilateral presence. Psychiatric manifestations were the cause of admission from the start, and their persistence and poor response to treatment may be a manifestation that alerts to the presence of this disease.

análise do racismo no conto "Nós Matamos o Cão Tinhoso"
Authors: MORAES Robson Batista
Published: May 2023

A exploração do território africano pelos europeus teve como principal motivação o racismo, utilizando a noção de raça para justificar a segregação dos povos negros africanos, sob uma pseudoideia de superioridade racial branca em detrimento de uma dita inferioridade dos povos e culturas dos negros em África. O racismo é um fenômeno global, que desde o processo de escravização vem operando como toda forma de amesquinhar, oprimir, desprezar e humilhar os negros de uma maneira a convencê-los de sua própria “inferioridade” (SOUZA, 2021). Desse modo, este artigo tem como objetivo central analisar como o racismo estrutural é retratado no conto Nós Matamos o Cão Tinhoso. Posto isso, este artigo, que possui um caráter metodológico qualitativo, documental e interdisciplinar, insere-se no campo epistemológico dos Estudos Culturais (BENNETT, 1992) no Brasil. Os estudos culturais são um campo de investigação de caráter interdisciplinar que explora as diversas formas de produção ou criação de significados e de difusão dos mesmos nas sociedades atuais. Portanto, pretende-se revelar de que forma o racismo opera no contexto moçambicano por meio de análises realizadas na obra supramencionada, de autoria do escritor Luís Bernardo Honwana, publicado em 1964. Por fim, será constatado como a literatura é um campo relevante para se refletir sobre o contexto moçambicano e de como o racismo do passado, de certa forma, ainda persiste nessa sociedade com outras faces.

Empregando dados a partir do ano de 2009 até 2019, a pesquisa foi dividida em duas análises, a primeira que foi constituída por ferramentas econométricas (através do método dos mínimos quadrados robustos) e a segunda que foi fundamentada por medidas estatísticas. Os resultados demonstram que a repercussão monetária possui bastante potencial para gerar ciclos nos mercados acionários, além disso, revelam que os estágios mais afastados dos consumidores finais são os que mais sofrem impactos de uma possível política monetária.

Este trabajo se enmarca en una investigación más amplía en la que, partiendo del dibujo de un arqueólogo/a, se pretende identificar qué sabe el alumnado en torno a la arqueología y detectar así aquellos estereotipos o creencias erróneas sobre esta ciencia y las personas que la llevan a cabo. En concreto, en este artículo se presenta el sistema de categorización diseñado para la interpretación de los dibujos. Para su elaboración se ha llevado a cabo un vaciado bibliográfico en torno a las investigaciones realizadas en relación a las ideas erróneas sobre la arqueología. A partir del mismo, se han planteado una serie de hipótesis como punto de partida de las categorías propuestas. El resultado ofrece una herramienta actualizada que facilita la interpretación de los datos en relación a los perfiles y acciones con los que se asocia la arqueología, así como su objeto de estudio. Sin embargo, su mayor aportación es la incorporación de una serie de categorías no planteadas hasta el momento, de cara a categorizar el conocimiento del método arqueológico a través de una serie de niveles de formulación.

Desde 2020, el Centre d’Estudis de Penyagolosa -CEP- trabaja junto con el Programa de Extensión Universitaria -PEU- de la Universitat Jaume I para desarrollar un proyecto territorial alrededor de las personas y los patrimonios de los cuatro municipios de la Mancomunitat de Penyagolosa - Pobles del Nord en la provincia de Castellón (Atzeneta del Maestrat, Benafigos, Vistabella del Maestrat y Xodos). El reto principal es sumar personas, colectivos, asociaciones, tejido empresarial e instituciones del territorio para, juntos y juntas, definir la comunidad patrimonial de Penyagolosa.
En este proceso de construcción colectiva, el 2 y 3 de julio de 2022 se realizaron unas jornadas para acercar cuatro modelos de organización comunitaria basados en la participación que sirvieran de punto de partida para su análisis y posterior base para diseñar un proyecto patrimonial propio: la asociación cultural, los laboratorios ciudadanos, las bibliotecas culturales y comunitarias, y los ecomuseos.
Para preparar esta jornada y conocer mejor los cuatro modelos, se constituyó un grupo motor formado por representantes institucionales y culturales de los cuatro municipios que se reunieron periódicamente y generaron una gran vinculación tanto con el proyecto como con la jornada.
