A Syntactic Information–Based Classification Model for Medical Literature: Algorithm Development and Validation Study
Authors: Tang Wentai , Wang Jian , Lin Hongfei , Zhao Di , Xu Bo , Zhang Yijia , Yang Zhihao
Published: June 2022

Background

The ever-increasing volume of medical literature necessitates the classification of medical literature. Medical relation extraction is a typical method of classifying a large volume of medical literature. With the development of arithmetic power, medical relation extraction models have evolved from rule-based models to neural network models. The single neural network model discards the shallow syntactic information while discarding the traditional rules. Therefore, we propose a syntactic information–based classification model that complements and equalizes syntactic information to enhance the model.

Objective

We aim to complete a syntactic information–based relation extraction model for more efficient medical literature classification.

Methods

We devised 2 methods for enhancing syntactic information in the model. First, we introduced shallow syntactic information into the convolutional neural network to enhance nonlocal syntactic interactions. Second, we devise a cross-domain pruning method to equalize local and nonlocal syntactic interactions.

Results

We experimented with 3 data sets related to the classification of medical literature. The F1 values were 65.5% and 91.5% on the BioCreative ViCPR (CPR) and Phenotype-Gene Relationship data sets, respectively, and the accuracy was 88.7% on the PubMed data set. Our model outperforms the current state-of-the-art baseline model in the experiments.

Conclusions

Our model based on syntactic information effectively enhances medical relation extraction. Furthermore, the results of the experiments show that shallow syntactic information helps obtain nonlocal interaction in sentences and effectively reinforces syntactic features. It also provides new ideas for future research directions.
Impact of a Clinical Text–Based Fall Prediction Model on Preventing Extended Hospital Stays for Elderly Inpatients: Model Development and Performance Evaluation
Authors: Kawazoe Yoshimasa , Shimamoto Kiminori , Shibata Daisaku , Shinohara Emiko , Kawaguchi Hideaki , Yamamoto Tomotaka
Published: June 2022

Background

Falls may cause elderly people to be bedridden, requiring professional intervention; thus, fall prevention is crucial. The use of electronic health records (EHRs) is expected to provide highly accurate risk assessment and length-of-stay data related to falls, which may be used to estimate the costs and benefits of prevention. However, no studies to date have investigated the extent to which hospital stays could be shortened through fall avoidance resulting from the use of prediction tools.

Objective

We first estimated the extended length of hospital stay caused by falls among elderly inpatients. Next, we developed a model that predicts falls using clinical text as input and evaluated its accuracy. Finally, we estimated the potentially shortened hospital stay that would be made possible by appropriate interventions based on the prediction model.

Methods

Patients aged 65 years or older were selected as subjects, and the EHRs of 1728 falls and 70,586 nonfalls were subjected to analysis. The extended-stay lengths were estimated using propensity score matching of 49 associated variables. Bidirectional encoder representations from transformers and bidirectional long short-term memory methods were used to predict falls from clinical text. The estimated length of stay and the outputs of the prediction model were used to determine stay reductions.

Results

The extended length of hospital stay due to falls was estimated to be 17.8 days (95% CI 16.6-19.0), which dropped to 8.6 days when there were unobserved covariates at an odds ratio of 2.0. The accuracy of the prediction model was as follows: area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, 0.851; F-value, 0.165; recall, 0.737; precision, 0.093; and specificity, 0.839. When assuming interventions with 25% or 100% effectiveness against cases where the model predicted a fall, the stay reduction was estimated at 0.022 and 0.099 days/day, respectively.

Conclusions

The accuracy of the prediction model using clinical text is considered to be higher than the prediction accuracy of conventional assessments. However, our model’s precision remained low at 9.3%. This may be due, in part, to the inclusion of cases in which falls did not occur because of preventative interventions during hospitalization. Nonetheless, it is estimated that interventions for cases when falls were predicted will reduce medical costs by 886 Yen/day (~US $6.50/day) of intervention, even if the preventative effect is 25%. Limitations include the fact that these results cannot be extrapolated to short- or long-term hospitalization cases, and that this was a single-center study.
Understanding Preconception Women’s Needs and Preferences for Digital Health Resources: Qualitative Study
Authors: Walker Ruth Elizabeth , Quong Sara , Olivier Patrick , Wu Ling , Xie Jue , Boyle Jacqueline
Published: June 2022

Background

Improving preconception health can benefit all women, their children, and their families regardless of their individual pregnancy intentions. Rapidly increasing access to information technology and online engagement have created opportunities to use digital health resources to engage with preconception women regarding lifestyle behaviors.

Objective

This study explores how preconception women engage with digital health resources and online platforms to inform the design and development of a digital health resource to support women to make positive behavior change for their preconception health.

Methods

This codesign research followed the Double Diamond process, which focuses on contextualization and explorative processes in phase 1 and ideation and development processes in phase 2. Phase 1 is reported on in this study and was undertaken via a series of 1-on-1 in-depth interviews with female participants (N=12) aged 18-45 years over 3 months. Interviews were designed to explore participants’ lived experiences in relation to their health and desired supports for healthy lifestyle behaviors. The first interview focused on participants’ perceptions of health and health behaviors, the second interview focused on social connections for health, and the third interview focused on digital health information and supports. Conversations from the first interview informed the development of the second interview, and conversations from the second interview informed the development of the third interview. Community advisors (N=8) met to provide feedback and advice to the researchers throughout the interview process. Qualitative analyses of transcripts from interviews were undertaken by 2 researchers before a deductive process identified themes mapped to the capability, opportunity, motivation, and behavior (COM-B) framework.

Results

In total, 9 themes and 8 subthemes were identified from 124 codes. In relation to digital health resources, specifically, participants were already engaging with a range of digital health resources and had high expectations of these. Digital health resources needed to be easy to access, make women’s busy lives easier, be evidence based, and be reputable. Social connectedness was also highly important to our participants, with information and advice from peers with similar experiences being preferred over yet more online health information. Online communities facilitated these social interactions. Participants were open to the idea of chatbots and virtual assistants but acknowledged that they would not replace authentic social interactions.

Conclusions

Codesigned digital health resources should be evidence based, reputable, and easy to access. Social connections were considered highly important to women, and designers of digital health resources should consider how they can increase opportunities for women to connect and learn from each other to promote health behaviors.

Framework for Brain Disease Detection Using Machine Learning Approach
Authors: Bashir Mir Kaisar
Published: June 2022

Abstract: In healthy persons, machine learning analysis of neuroimaging data can reliably predict chronological size/age, and departures from healthy brain ageing are linked to cognitive impairment and illness. Most brain illnesses, such as epilepsy or a brain tumor, are difficult to diagnose and need several visits to doctors and electroencephalogram technicians. Using Artificial Intelligence and deep learning, this research attempts to automate brain disease detection based on brain size. Many brain diseases can be identified by measuring the size of the brain. Using a noninvasive method to collect data directly from the brain provides substantial information about its health and illness. When examining an Electroencephalography, clinicians presently classify and discover abnormalities on the brain. It may be feasible to learn and categories brain activity with the proper quantity of data and machine learning algorithms (i.e.: anxiety, epilepsy spikes, abnormal tumor activity, disease etc.). Following that, hybrid approach would analyses the brain datasets and look for signs of a condition in order to automate the identification and categorization of the disorders/diseases discovered.
Implementation and Segmentation of Glaucoma using Mathematical Morphology of Retinal Fundus Images
Authors: M Mr. Anand
Published: June 2022

Abstract: To diagnose diseases, various healthcare systems use content-predicted picture analysis and computer vision techniques. Fundus images acquired with a fundus camera are used to detect anomalies in a human ocular perceiver. Glaucoma is the second most common ocular perceiver disease that can lead to neurodegeneration. The main cause of this condition is said to be an insufficient intraocular pressure within the human ocular perceiver. Glaucoma has no symptoms in its early stages and can lead to ocular incapacitation if it is not treated. Glaucoma can be detected early enough to prevent representative vision loss. Manual evaluation of the human ocular perceiver is a valid technique, but it is prone to human error. To identify glaucoma, we will need image processing, artificial intelligence, and computer vision techniques.

New Russian socio-political phraseology: development trends
Authors: Leontyeva Tatayna V. , Shchetinina Anna V.
Published: June 2022

The results of observations on stable expressions limited to socio-political topics, extracted from modern publicist texts, are presented. The relevance of studying the new phraseology that appears and functions in media texts is due to the need to comprehend the society transformations and changes in socio-political realities. The purpose of the research is to characterize expressions in institutional relations, nominating power relations, and the phenomena of conflict communication as new phraseological units of the political sphere. The article introduces the new material: most of the studied phraseology have appeared relatively recently in the Russian language, is not recorded in dictionaries and was extracted from media texts and the National Corpus of the Russian language. In order to determine the model of phraseological nomination, the authors used the method of component analysis, and in order to formulate the meaning - the method of context analysis and reconstruction of the set expression meaning. Phraseological units that call public actions, social actors, forms of communication were analyzed. It is concluded that the emergence and functioning of the analyzed phraseological units in speech are due to the fact that the speaker or writer solves some pragmatic problem. In the socio-political environment, his intention especially often stems from the need to select effective speech means for performing the communicative tasks of recruiting (according to this principle, the names of public actions are developed to involve a larger number of participants), ranking (phraseological groups with grading concepts of the same row are used) and hedging (indirect nomination reduces the communication conflict).
Phraseological units functions implementation in the discursive space of the Russian-speaking Internet
Authors: Dobrova Mariia S.
Published: June 2022

The purpose of the research is to consider the aspects of some functions of phrasemes in the Russian-language Internet discourse, primarily in connection with their role in forming significant elements of network communication. The relevance of the study is determined by the fact, that the problem of implementation of certain functions of set expressions in Internet discourse has not yet been fully explored and requires close attention to the interdependence of phraseology and other Internet phenomena. The material of the article are contexts with phrasemes, collected by the method of continuous sampling only from the proper network genres: Internet forums, network blogs, Internet comments, social networks, etc. The author analyzes the features of phraseology and its pragmatic potential. The method of continuous sampling, classification-typological and interpretive methods, as well as the method of discourse-contextual analysis of linguistic units were used. The methodological basis was formed by articles on the functional aspects of phraseology and Internet linguistics. The study proved that, on the one hand, the Internet is an actual environment for studying the linguistic units functioning, and phraseology itself in the new speech and discursive conditions remains in demand. It is shown that phraseology and its functions in online communication create proper discursive features of the Internet: expressiveness, colloquialism, neogenity, etc., and also take part in emerging different phenomena of network origin: Internet memes, “demotivators,” threads of Internet comments.

Related studies have provided significant insights into polyploid
breeding in recent years, but limited research was focused on trees. The
genomic information for the growth and response to abiotic stress in
polyploidy trees is still largely unknown. Populus alba
’Berolinensis’, also named “Yinzhong poplar”, is a triploid
poplar in the northeast of China. This hybrid triploid poplar is widely
used as landscape ornamentals in urban areas because of its fast growth
and high tolerance to abiotic stress. As an artificially synthesized
male allotriploid hybrid, the three monoploid genomes of P. alba
’Berolinensis’ originated from different poplar species, so it is
the desired material for studying polyploidy genomic collaboration
mechanisms. Therefore, we intensively studied the allelic genomic
collaboration mechanism in P. alba ’Berolinensis’. This
study generated a high-quality chromosome-level genome assembly for the
P. alba ’Berolinensis’ consisting of 19 allelic
chromosomes. Its three monoploid chromosomes are polymorphic with an
average of 42.22 variant sites per allelic gene locus. Meanwhile, we
found that stress related genes such as RD22 and LEA7
exhibited structure variations. The above information has all been
deployed to our polyploid genome online analysis website TreeGenomes
(https://www.treegenomes.com). These polyploid genomic related resources
will provide critical foundations for the molecular breeding of P.
alba ’Berolinensis’ and help us uncover the allopolyploidization
effects on the resistance and traits of polyploidy species deeper in the
future.
A PDE model approach to formation control of large-scale mobile sensor networks with boundary uncertainties

Published: June 2022

This paper investigates the consensus problem of an array of large
mobile sensor networks. A new framework for the dynamic of mobile
sensors as a continuum which described by parabolic system with boundary
disturbance is proposed. The communication topology of agents is a chain
graph and fixed. Leader feedback laws which is designed in a manner to
the boundary control of large mobile sensor networks allow the mobile
sensors achieve the formation steadily. By referring to Lyapunov
functional method and employing boundary control approach, a new
protocol is established to deal with formation problem for the large
mobile sensor networks. Finally, numerical examples are given to
illustrate the usefulness of the results.
Fichte’s troubles with a state
Authors: Dimic Zoran
Published: June 2022

Fichte?s relation towards the institution of the state is directly dependent
on how the notion of freedom was developed in his philosophy. However, his
understanding of freedom was transformed dynamically from freedom understood
in a distinctly individualistic way as the absence of any obligations (early
Fichte) to legally grounded freedom in a state institution that implies
restricting one?s freedom by the freedom of others (mature phase).
Accordingly, Fichte?s attitude towards the notion of the state changed -
from its understanding as an external institution that should only enable
the individual?s freedom and eventually disappear to the understanding of
the state as the only guarantor of human liberation and the original place
for freedom. However, in his late phase, Fichte would abandon such an idea
of the state again and develop a new concept of national education that
should do what the state failed to do. Therefore, we must conclude that
Fichte does not have an exact position on the relationship between the
state, man, and freedom as the highest goal.
„Philosophy is dead”: Kajica Milanov on dialectical and historical materialism
Authors: Milosavljevic Boris
Published: June 2022

Kajica Milanov (1905-1986) was educated in Vienna, Belgrade and Berlin. He taught philosophy at the Faculty of Philosophy (University of Belgrade). During World War II Milanov was in German captivity. Afther the war Milanov was asked to teach philosophy in the spirit of Marxism. Because of the political pressure he had to emigrate to Austria, and eventually to Australia (1949). In 1954 Milanov became a Lecturer at the Department of Philosophy in Hobart, University of Tasmania (UTAS). At that time the most notorious scandal in the history of Australian philosophy broke out (Orr case). In that troubled period Milanov managed to keep alive studies at the Philosophy department (1956-1969), with which he has been credited today. He continued to work at the same department as a Senior Lecturer until 1975. Milanov had authored several books and special publications.
Response-dependence and aesthetic realism: Zangwill and Pettit
Authors: Jovanovic Monika
Published: June 2022

In this paper I discuss the application of the response-dependence thesis in aesthetics. When we apply this thesis in aesthetics, we arrive at the view that aesthetic properties are in some way, epistemologically or ontologically, dependent on the response of an observer. Even though all defenders of the response-dependence thesis adopt the same formula, they interpret it in different, even mutually incompatible ways. We can see how such contrasting readings can be widely divergent when we compare two well-known aesthetic papers which adhere to the response-dependence thesis: the Philip Pettit?s paper on the possibility of aesthetic realism, and the Nick Zangwill?s paper on the ontological status of beauty. After I critically examin and compare the views argued in these papers, I will try to answer a more general question of whether a response-dependence thesis, in its original form, can help us better understand the ontological and the epistemological status of aesthetic qualities.
Aesthetic attitude, aesthetic experiences and aesthetic emotions: Analysis from the perspective of Ingarden′s aesthetics
Authors: Grubor Nebojsa
Published: June 2022

The text discusses three basic aesthetic concepts: the concept of aesthetic attitude, aesthetic experience and aesthetic emotions, as well as their mutual relationship. The basis of the analysis is the Maria Reicher?s determination of the structure of the aesthetic experience and Roman Ingarden?s theory of aesthetic experience. The paper shows how dynamically and mutually conditioned two basic elements - representation and feeling - constitute an aesthetic experience. The aesthetic experiences begins with the original emotion. The original emotion reveals the aesthetic qualities of the object, stops everyday life and enables the transition from everyday practical to aesthetic attitude. Aesthetic attitude based on perceived aesthetic qualities leads to the constitution of an aesthetic object. The aesthetic object re-energizes the aesthetic emotions that now complete the process od constituting the aesthetic experience. The emotional evocation of the immediate aesthetic experience is the basis for assessing the aesthetic value of an aesthetic object. The basic thesis of this paper is that least three moments should be distinguished in the aesthetic component of the aesthetic experience. In the first moment, the original emotions stops the practical everyday attitude, establishes the aesthetic attitude and starts the process of creating an aesthetic experiences. In the second moment, aesthetic emotion is an integral part of the aesthetic experiences and is closely connected with aesthetic representation. In the third moment, evocative aesthetic emotion is the basis of value evaluation of an aesthetic object.

Multi-channel Optical Wireless Communication under the Effect of Low Electric Field
Authors: Sabri Noor Wisam , Mohammed Firas S.
Published: June 2022

In this study, the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technique is proposed to mitigate the influence of an external electric field on the free space optical (FSO) communication. The main advantages of the proposed technique are: decrease the attenuation (decrease bit error rate BER), improve data transmission at all divergence angles, and increase the quality (Q-factor) (even when it decreases at higher divergence angles). The importance of these results can be used to solve the problem of electric discharges that occurs on power transmission lines that interfere with the optical wireless system.
Educational achievements of children aged 10-11 years with cystic fibrosis. A data linkage study in Wales
Authors: Schlüter Daniela K , Griffiths Rowena , Akbari Ashley , Taylor-Robinson David
Published: June 2022

IntroductionAs people with cystic fibrosis (CF) lead longer, healthier lives, educational qualifications and employment prospects are increasingly important. However, little is known about the social consequences of CF, in particular, any impact on educational achievements and the support children with CF receive in schools.
ObjectivesTo assess the educational achievements of children with CF in Wales compared to the general Welsh population, and the additional learning support children with CF receive in schools.
MethodsWe conducted a population-scale data linkage study of all children born in Wales using the Secure Anonymised Information Linkage (SAIL) Databank. We used anonymised individual-level population-scale health and administrative data sources to identify children with CF born between 2000 -- 2015, linked to educational attainment records. We calculated the percentage of children that reached expected levels in statutory assessment at age 10-11, Key Stage2 (KS2), and compared this to educational outcomes in the general population. We also assessed the percentage of children with CF that received extra learning support.
ResultsOut of 150 eligible children, 119 had KS2 results. 77% (95% CI: 69%-84%) of children achieved expected levels in English, 81% (95% CI: 73% -87%) in Mathematics and 82% (95% CI: 75% - 88%) in Science. In the comparable general Welsh population, 83.4% to 91.1% achieved the expected level in English, 84.9% to 91.6% in Maths, and 87.1% to 92.2% in Science across the years of the study. 70% of children with CF received extra learning support.
ConclusionsChildren with CF in Wales may have worse educational achievements than the general population. More research is needed to inform policies and interventions to better support children with CF to reach their full educational potential and employment opportunities.

O presente estudo trata das contribuições que os jogos e as brincadeiras propiciam no processo de ensino e aprendizagem de alunos surdos em turmas de ensino fundamental I, mas especificamente nas aulas de língua portuguesa. O objetivo geral da pesquisa foi desenvolver conceitos de forma lúdica através de jogos bilíngues em Libras/Língua Portugesa, de modo a tornar o aprendizado dinâmico e prazeroso. Ressaltamos que o trabalho pedagógico com o lúdico na sala de aula possibilita ao professor tornar a aprendizagem motivadora, prazerosa e significativa, além de proporcionar aos alunos condições adequadas ao desenvolvimento motor, emocional, cognitivo e social. O cenário escolhido para o nosso estudo foi o município de Mossoró-RN, especificamente uma escola da rede municipal de ensino de Mossoró, localizada no centro da cidade. Os instrumentos utilizados para a coleta e geração dos dados foram a observação não participante e a entrevista estruturada. Dessa forma, para fundamentar as discussões recorremos aos teóricos e estudiosos do assunto como: Skiliar (1998), Quadros (2004), Kishimoto (2011), Lopes (2015), Teixeira (2016), Oliveira Neto e González (2020) entre outros autores que se debruçam a estudar, debater e refletir sobre a problemática da educação bilíngue e sobre a ludicidade em sala de aula.
Análise crítica interseccional do discurso multimodal de representações do trabalho e dos/as trabalhadores/as na pandemia de COVID-19 em webcomics
Authors: De Sousa Oliveira Tammara Thaís , Silva Bezerra Fábio Alexandre
Published: June 2022

A pandemia da COVID-19 e os acontecimentos sociais dela decorrentes trouxeram significativas mudanças em diversas áreas da vida em sociedade (p. ex. trabalho remoto). Contudo, essas mudanças atingiram as pessoas de diferentes formas, de acordo com questões de raça, classe e gênero. Com base em conceitos e categorias de análise da gramática do design visual de Kress e van Leeuwen (2006), no modelo tridimensional proposto por Fairclough (2015[1989], 1995) para a análise crítica do discurso, e no conceito de interseccionalidade (AKOTIRENE, 2019; CRENSHAW, 1991; COLLINS; BILGE, 2016), esta pesquisa investiga como webcomics (quadrinhos online) veiculadas nas redes sociais representam o trabalho e os/as trabalhadores/as nesse contexto pandêmico. Resultados gerais indicam que as webcomics representam importantes aspectos das realidades do trabalho remoto e presencial, levando em consideração aspectos interseccionais, tais como raça, classe e gênero, a fim de revelar como a pandemia da COVID-19 tem afetado grupos sociais diferentes de maneiras particulares, revelando opressões e relações de inequidade que caracterizam nosso contexto nacional.
Ocorrências da (não) separação de línguas no Teletandem

Published: June 2022

A telecolaboração tem permitido acesso aos povos e línguas, transpondo barreiras geográficas e propiciando experiências significativas com vistas à construção de conhecimento, desenvolvimento de autonomia e competência intercultural. O teletandem, contexto que prevê a realização de sessões bilíngues de comunicação entre aprendizes de diferentes línguas por meio de aplicativos como o Skype e Zoom, tem possibilitado práticas pedagógicas significativas. Em um momento posterior à interação, um professor/pesquisador/mediador conduz as sessões de mediação junto ao grupo de participantes para promover um compartilhamento de experiências e fomentar a reflexão. O presente trabalho, sob uma metodologia qualitativa, enfoca dados de sessões de mediação com estudantes brasileiros referentes a interações conduzidas em 2016. Assim, pautados no suporte teórico da telecolaboração, tandem e teletandem, destacamos ocorrências da não separação de línguas nas interações, retratada pelos interagentes nas sessões de mediação, para compreender e buscar reforço de procedimentos e alinhamento aos interagentes. Os resultados evidenciam um desequilíbrio estabelecido pela mistura de línguas, que pode prejudicar as ações entre os pares, gerando desconfortos e interferindo, inclusive, nos demais princípios: reciprocidade e autonomia. Evidenciam, também, a importância das sessões de mediação como espaço de alinhamento e papel do mediador no suporte e potencialização da experiência entre os pares.
Computer-assisted assessment in teletandem interactions
Authors: CONSOLO Douglas Altamiro
Published: June 2022

Assessment constitutes an essential dimension of learning and in teletandem interactions inasmuch as it helps interactants to verify indications of language development and the achievement of learning goals. In this paper I review computer-aided assessment (CAA) in foreign language learning with a focus on data from a partnership in the Teletandem Brazil Project: foreign languages for all. I draw on the literature on language assessment and CAA, the latter defined as any type of activity in which computers are used to support assessment beyond their functions to store and transmit information. Then I discuss excerpts from a teletandem session, considering occasions in which teletandem interactants evaluate each other’s linguistic performances. Assessment in that session is mainly characterized by different types of feedback provided by the most proficient interactant. The less proficient interactant is given feedback based on principles that underpin conversation, distance learning and teletandem, such as the use of technological resources and negotiation about how and when assessment should occur. These principles do not characterise a new paradigm in language assessment, since the conversational and linguistic criteria on which evaluation is based are similar to criteria for assessment in other contexts, for example, in face-to-face lessons.
Teletandem e Intercompreensão
Authors: LEONE Paola
Published: June 2022

O Teletandem é implementado em várias universidades e diferentes cenários de aprendizagem são projetados para atender às múltiplas necessidades de uma sociedade em mudança. Intercompréhension Orale et Teletandem (IOTT) é um projeto de telecolaboração desenvolvido pela Universidade de Lyon 2 e pela Universidade de Salento que responde a este desafio, visando o desenvolvimento de habilidades de recepção, produção e interação necessárias para se comunicar com alguém que fala / escreve por meio de línguas diferentes, mas próximas (línguas românicas, tais como espanhol e francês, por exemplo). A IOTT também desenvolve conhecimentos teóricos e habilidades metacomunicativas necessárias para evidenciar e analisar estratégias para resolver problemas de comunicação. Isso é realizado graças a uma macrotarefa chamada MINTT, uma sequência de tarefas que promovem a reflexividade dos alunos, incentivando a propensão ao pensamento crítico formativo. Depois de discutir a noção de Intercompreensão, o projeto de aprendizagem IOTT é descrito neste artigo, destacando áreas de aprendizagem potencial deste Cenário de Aprendizagem baseado em Teletandem. Gravações de Sessões Orais de Teletandem e diários, escritos por alunos após cada sessão, são mencionados para mostrar como esses percebem uma experiência tão desafiadora, como resolvem problemas de comunicação durante Sessões Orais de Teletandem e como analisam processos de negociação de significado.

physiological or metabolic processes that can cause cancer in humans. Adsorption is one of the method that is quite effective for removing Cr(VI) in waters because this method uses low cost with good efficiency. Sugar palm fruit peel waste can be used as an adsorbent because it contains active compounds such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats that can play a role in the absorption of metal ions. This sugar palm peel waste will be immobilized using a Ca-alginate medium to increase the absorption of mechanical forces in the adsorption process. The sugar palm fruit peel was activated using 4% NaOH, which was then immobilized by Ca-alginate. The adsorbent was tested to determine its functional group using FTIR and using SEM EDX to see the surface morphology and the elements present in the adsorbent. The results showed that the optimum absorption of metal ions Cr(VI) using Ca-alginate immobilized palm peel as adsorbent at optimum pH 2 with an efficiency of 63% and adsorption capacity of 0.35396 mg/g, the optimum contact time was 75 minutes with an efficiency of 73, 83% and adsorption capacity of 0.41314 mg/g and the optimum concentration at 150 ppm with adsorption capacity of 13.15185 mg/g
Optimizing Gold Recovery of Artisanal Mining: A Lesson Learned from Kenya

Published: June 2022

The metallurgical testings to treat the Kenyan artisanal gold mining samples were performed with several processes such as gravity concentration (i.e., Knelson Concentrator and panning), flotation, and cyanidation or leaching. These tests were conducted to find the best processing stages to improve the Kenyan artisanal mining recovery. From the three categories of samples treated, sample A, which was processed through gravity concentration and flotation, produced 95.64% of gold recovery. Meanwhile, sample B could produce 98.74% of gold recovery with the cyanidation test. The results from sample A and sample B confirmed that the combination of the Knelson concentrator and flotation, which the Processing Center should handle, was the perfect combination to reduce the use of cyanide during the leaching process. On the other hand, the study also showed that the tailing sample (sample C) could still be recovered through flotation. With the results obtained, the best scenario was proposed. The government played a critical role in facilitating both the artisanal miners and the Processing Center for both cases, in Kenya or Aceh.
