Authors: Handayuni Linda , Mardiawati Dewi , Yenni Ririn Afrima , Rahmadian Rozi
Published: June 2023

Congenital hypothyroidism is one of the causes of mental retardation in children that can be prevented if recognized and treated early. Thyroid hormones play a role in the development of the central nervous system. It is known that 95% of CH do not show typical clinical signs and symptoms at birth and the duration of early intervention to prevent mental retardation is short. Therefore, most developed countries have conducted neonatal screening programs for early detection of CH. The purpose of this study was to determine the diagnosis and management of congenital hypoteroid based on medical record analysis. This research method is a cross-sectional descriptive study with a quantitative approach to patient medical records. Data were analyzed in accordance with the standard diagnosis and management of congenital hypoteroid issued by the Pediatric Association in 2017. The clinical practice guidelines explain that congenital hypothyroidism can be transient or permanent and is classified according to the location of the disorder: primary (in the thyroid gland) or secondary (in the pituitary and/or hypothalamus); severity of hypothyroidism: (serum TSH levels > 100 mIU/L are considered severe; and age of onset of hypothyroidism. The most common form is permanent primary CH (high serum TSH levels) due to thyroid dysgenesis. Permanent CH requires lifelong treatment while transient CH does not. The results of the study have met clinical guidelines, namely CH screening in newborns is positive if the TSH level is ≥ 20 mU/L. Infants with positive screening results must be confirmed by re-checking serum TSH and FT4. The diagnosis of CH is made when TSH levels are high and FT4 is low. In non-screened infants, the diagnosis is made through clinical symptoms and serum TSH and FT4 examination.

Published: June 2023

The involvement of bacteria in lowering the concentrations of heavy metal contaminants in the environment is one of the most recent topics of discussion in the field of microbiology. This topic hasn't been brought up much in microbiology lectures thus far in the classroom. Therefore, it is important to analyze the requirement for the construction of a microbiology practical model with the focus on investigating heavy metal-bioremediating bacteria as environmental polluting agents. The curriculum papers in the biology education study program were analyzed using quantitative and descriptive research methodologies, with a focus on the microbiology course. Additionally, this study used both closed- and open-ended questions. We studied a total of 45 fourth-semester microbiology students from four different institutions, six microbiology lecturers from several Indonesian universities, and four biology teachers from Tanjung Pinang. It was discovered that environmental bioremediation needs to be covered in more detail in microbiology lectures and practicum for aspiring biology teachers based on an analysis of the curriculum, students' perspectives, and instructors' perceptions. Lectures on the subject of heavy metal bioremediation should cover it in detail and should provide useful knowledge. The teacher believes that lab exercises have the potential to be a successful teaching method for this subject.

Published: June 2023

The PjBL approach is applied to the Physics Laboratory Management course to support the achievement of learning outcomes. Through PjBL, preservice teachers are given assignments related to their future work as teachers and are required to complete them in groups. This study aims to determine how preservice teachers perceive their collaborative skills while interacting with group members when completing assignments. This research applied a mixed-methods approach to better understand research problems by quantitative and qualitative data. We employ total population sampling to examine the entire population with a particular set of characteristics from 67 people who completed the group project assignment. We analyze and describe the quantitative and qualitative data results to answer preservice teachers' perceptions of their collaborative team working skills during PjBL. We prefer the explanatory design method, where qualitative data is needed to explain the significant quantitative results. As a result, Preservice Teachers' perception shows that during PjBL, they have obtained collaboration skills in teamwork, managing conflicts, decision making, and communication skills. From the interviews, we dig up additional information about their complaints about the difficulty of completing projects and working in teams. However, the benefits of the additional skills they get are more profitable than their challenges. This analysis informs us that Preservice Teachers show a more significant positive response regarding collaboration skills during PjBL. It can be considered to continue to bring up collaboration skills in any given learning approach.

Background: The establishment of Childcare Centres (CCs) has increased as several parents leave their homes to work and need a place to keep their children. CCs are expected to make available equipment and materials for infection prevention.
Objective: To assess the facilities for infection prevention in CCs and the occurrence of common infections among children attending CCs.
Methods: Quantitative research approach was used. The study was conducted among care providers in CCs in Sagamu Local Government Area, Ogun State, Nigeria. The data were obtained using an observation checklist and a validated questionnaire with Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of 0.831.
Result: The mean age of the care providers was 35.3±9.4 years. Most (92.4%) care providers worked at private school-owned CCs. The features of infection commonly exhibited by the children included running nose (73.3%), blocked nose (49.6%), cough (66.8%), and sneezing (53.1%). Most (238; 90.8%) of the CCs had suitable structures, while 160 (61.0%) had none of the required essential structures. There was a significant positive relationship between the availability of essential structures in CCs and the occurrence of infection in the children (r = -0.153; p < 0.001) and a significant positive relationship between the availability of essential equipment and the occurrence of infection in CCs (r = 0.313; p < 0.001).
Conclusion: Emphasis should be placed on providing more infection prevention measures in CCs. This should include relevant policies, guidelines and monitoring mechanisms.
Diagnosis of Non-Immune Hydrops Foetalis and Cystic Hygroma in a 20-Week Foetus: A Case Report
Authors: Akinmoladun JA , Fatade OE , Obilade OA
Published: June 2023

Hydrops foetalis (HF) is the excessive fluid accumulation in at least two foetal body cavities, including pleural, pericardial, and peritoneal cavities, with associated soft tissue oedema. Most cases of hydrops foetalis were due to severe erythroblastosis foetalis, secondary to Rhesus isoimmunization. However, other variants include non-immune hydrops foetalis (NIHF). Foetal cystic hygroma, which occurs due to lymphatic obstruction, is commonly associated with immune hydrops foetalis (IHF). A combination of the conditions in a foetus tends to portend an abysmal prognosis because it can lead to abortion, intrauterine foetal death (IUFD) and early neonatal death (ENND). We report a case of a 22-year-old woman with a prenatal ultrasound diagnosis of a combination of NIHF and foetal cystic hygroma at 20 weeks of gestation. Therefore, there is a need for early diagnosis of the anomalies so that early termination of pregnancy can be performed if the patient desires.

Published: June 2023

Economic development is now increasingly rapid along with the times, there are many records that say that the Islamic economy existed long before the conventional economy emerged. Based on the content in the verses of the Qur'an, especially about the stories of the Prophets and Apostles, it can be seen that economic practices have existed since the time of the Prophet Adam. While Islamic economic thought itself began since the revelation of the Qur'an and the lifetime of the Prophet at the end of the 6th century AD to the beginning of the 7th century AD. Starting with the life of Prophet Adam as the first creature created by Allah SWT, it has been explained in the Qur'an about his early life while in heaven which was then revealed to earth and how Prophet Adam lived a life on earth that was much different from in heaven, thus it can be concluded that It can be seen that the values of economics have actually existed since the first creature was created, namely the prophet Adam.Keywords: Islamic economics, before prophecy, the time of the Prophet

The Syafiiyah and Hanafiyah scholars' perspectives on the background of their divergent viewpoints on the legality of receiving compensation for teaching the Qur’an are presented in this study. The law governing the payment for teaching the Qur'an, as well as the legal procedures used by Hanafiyah Ulama and Syafiyah Ulama, are the source of the disagreement that leads to the issue. Normative legal research is the kind that it is. This study’s research topic relates to the views and legal strategies held by Syafiiyah and Hanafiyah scholars regarding compensation for Qur’an instruction. The research data are different viewpoints and justifications advanced by both traditional and modern academics. While the data sources are various fiqh references, such as books, papers, and newspapers, both print and electronic, which contain details about the status of receiving compensation for teaching the Qur’an services, as well as fiqh books written by classical and modern scholars regarding wages for doing so.The findings of the study on the opinions of the Ash-Shafi'i scholars suggest that charging for the teaching of the Qur’an is acceptable regardless of whether the pupils are children or adults, even when doing so would otherwise be considered fardhu 'ain. While the Hanafiyah scholars hold that it is forbidden to be paid for work that has religious overtones. argued that since Sahih hadiths were included in the quality of hadiths narrated by Bukhari, these hadiths should be used as support for claims that receiving or accepting compensation for teaching the Qur’an is acceptable.Keywords: Wages, Teacher, Perspective

A New Interpretation of the Vedic Particle aṅgá
Authors: Coenen Pascal
Published: June 2023

The aim of this article is to provide a unified account for all attestations of the particle aṅgá in the Rigveda. Based on its distribution in different clause types, I argue that previous analyses of this particle, which treat it as a focus particle or a marker of the speaker’s attitude or certainty are incorrect. Instead, I propose that the particle is used to indicate shared (lack of) knowledge between speaker and addressee. This proposal is based on the observation that when the particle occurs in questions these are not information-seeking. By adducing typological parallels, I argue that this function accounts for its presence in other clause types as well. Moreover, I will attempt to show that while aṅgá has an intersubjective function it is not to be regarded as an evidential or a marker of epistemic authority or epistemic modality.

Published: June 2023

Citizen science, though well established in Australia has not yet found wide use in tertiary science education. We offer case studies to illustrate that Citizen Science approaches are slowly being adopted and we highlight the spectrum of experiences in higher education from undergraduate to alumni. Courses that integrate citizen science methods tend to focus on the involvement of students in scientific research. More recently, however, citizen science theories and practice have been explicitly taught, empowering students to bring a critical lens to citizen science approaches in addition to contributing to scientific research. Integrative citizen science approaches can draw together research and teaching in higher education. When combined, these authentic learning experiences provide opportunities for students to practice contemporary science as part of new and emerging research frameworks. This article draws together citizen science initiatives from Australian universities. We discuss the benefits of immersive citizen science projects for learning, the potential of citizen science to connect campuses with community, and the importance of critical approaches to citizen science in a pedagogical setting. We consider ways to shape citizen science in higher education settings to broaden inclusion in science both on and beyond campuses.

The phenomenon of stochastic resonance in a radio engineering system, similar in structure to a digital filter based on the Lyapunov characteristic function, is considered. The physical meaning of stochastic resonance is revealed and the hypothesis of its existence in a radio engineering system is confirmed. In the process of modeling a digital filter, the effect and indicators of stochastic resonance were established when filtering an additive mixture of a quasi-deterministic signal and "white" noise. An improvement in the signal-to-noise ratio at the output of the system by a factor of 634 compared to the signal-to-noise ratio at its input was obtained when filtering an additive mixture of a centered quasi-deterministic signal and "white" noise. When filtering an additive mixture of a non-centered quasi-deterministic signal and "white" noise, the indicated stochastic resonance index is lower and amounts to 174 times. It is proposed to consolidate the phenomenon of stochastic resonance for a radio engineering system with such new definitions as the band and bandwidth of the resonance. Noise immunity increases noticeably in the resonance band in a digital modem with a circuit similar to a digital filter based on the Lyapunov characteristic function. The purpose of this work is to present a hypothesis with a future perspective, revealing the possibility of using a new effect in the construction of radio engineering systems.
MARKET LEVERAGE OF REAL ESTATE FIRMS IN INDIA: EMPIRICAL STUDY
Authors: bag DINABANDHU
Published: June 2023

Growing urbanization, increasing population and increased per capita income have boosted the demand for housing in India. This empirical study gives us an explanation of how the market leverage of the real state firms in India are affected by firm specific attributes and external market or macroeconomic factors. Property financing is known as infrastructure financing where there exits the problems of longer gestation period, less predictable cash flows and challenge of accessing capital. This paper compares the property firms from other firms to differentiate their financial characteristics. It analyses the determinants of the market leverage for a sample of 40 Indian listed property companies for 8 year period from 2005 to 2012 and shows that current market leverage is positively and significantly impacted by previous leverage and also fewer firm characteristics that include contemporaneous operational efficiency, growth option, and change in working capital, cost of funds, etc. We conclude that transparency in property markets and accuracy in financial disclosure can help property firms‘ access capital and maintain their leverage. We also emphasize that the recent guidelines of SEBI on the introduction of REITs (Real Estate Investment Trusts) and real estate funds (REFs) are policy initiatives to channelize funds for this sector.

Screen exposure exacerbates impulsivity indirectly through addiction to internet and sleep disturbance.
Authors: Hallez Quentin , GIL Sandrine , Droit-Volet Sylvie
Published: June 2023

Abundant research has shown that prolonged screen exposure is associated on the one hand to impulsivity and on the other hand to sleep quality. The present study tested individual addiction to internet and sleep disturbance as mediators of the relationship between screen exposure and impulsivity, and this in a general adult population. 482 individuals completed questionnaires measuring their usual exposure of screen devices, as well as their internet addiction, sleep disturbance and impulsivity. The results confirmed the increase in impulsivity with increasing screen time. However, the screen-impulsivity relationship was mediated by the additive effect of sleep disturbance and internet addiction.
Methods to scale deliberative decision-making to billions of simultaneous people
Authors: Pescetelli Niccolo , Denis Georgina
Published: June 2023

In today’s connected information environment, communication with millions of individuals is the norm rather than the exception. However, communication is primarily text-based, asynchronous and non-deliberative. Real-time deliberation remains sporadic. Even on social media, where people can simultaneously signal their opinions to millions of individuals and engage in lengthy discussion threads, communication remains limited to broadcasting, and information aggregation is not guaranteed in a reasonable amount of time. Here, we present a novel approach to collective decision-making for open-ended problems, which scales real-time online deliberation to virtually thousands, millions, or even billions of individuals. The method, called PSi (People Supported intelligence), is an iterative method for group discussions that outputs a ranking of crowdsourced answers to open-ended questions. PSi is bounded by the number of iterations required to reach a collective decision and, thus, the time needed to reach it. It is guaranteed to output a decision in logarithmic time as a function of group size, opening the door to massive-scale deliberative decision-making. We present results from a discussion between Republicans and Democrats (N=208) on abortion rights. We present the PSi method within the broader field of collective intelligence and decision-making, its informational properties, and applications. PSi represents a scalable solution to deliberative decision-making that is theoretically resilient to herding, negative social influence, or intentional attacks (e.g., disinformation). We discuss its potential impact on deliberative democracy and deliberative participation in large groups, like organizations, cities, and societies.
La tarea de salvar el desarrollo capitalista: una primera revisión del programa de "misiones" desde América Latina
Authors: Gudynas Eduardo
Published: June 2023

Se examinan aspectos destacados del programa de “misiones” propuesto por Mariana Mazzucato, cuya meta es reformar el desarrollo capitalista, atendiendo a su popularidad en gobiernos latinoamericanos. Se consideran sus bases con-ceptuales, sus implicancias para América Latina, en especial las referidas a los extractivismos. Se advierten sobre limitaciones, simplificaciones y contradicciones, en especial las que resultan de su apego al crecimiento. Su propuesta es parte del diverso conjunto de reformas del capitalismo. También está embebida en el colonialismo de transferir estrategias de desarrollo y en una colonialidad en los saberes, por los cuales actores políticos, académicos, empresariales e incluso ciudadanos del sur recurren a propuestas del norte, olvidando o minimizando los aportes propios de América Latina.
Performance Evaluation of Artificial Angular Fly Ash Aggregate
Authors: Yadav Yogesh , Saud Ishwor Singh
Published: June 2023

This experimental study describes the development of the lightweight angular fly ash aggregate (FAA) and consequent comparison of properties of FAA with natural aggregate (gravel). The manufacturing process of these FAA involves blending of fly ash with cement and alkali activators at various proportioning of cement to fly ash and placing the mix in the mould. This is followed by curing of the cubes for 7 days after letting it to dry for 24hrs and crushing them to obtain the aggregate of different sizes. After having the fly ash aggregate, the test are carried out in fresh state and hardened state of the fly ash aggregate concrete and the conventional concrete. Results are compared to see the efficiency level of flyash aggregate concrete.The properties of both angular fly ash aggregates like Specific gravity, water absorption, Impact value, and Abrasion value are compared with the properties of the conventional aggregates (gravel). This study concludes that FAA with proper mix proportioning can be used as a substitute for conventional aggregates for sustainable construction.
