Authors: Clímaco Gabrielli , Rossoni Diogo Francisco , Bergamasco Rita de Cássia
Published: September 2024

The bootstrap method with resampling is a statistical tool that allows obtaining a greater confidence interval without the need for repetitions, as is the case with the RSM. The objective of this work was to apply this method in the extraction optimization of betacyanin from beet. Time and temperature were used in a second-order CCRD, and the response variable was the betacyanin content. The optimum extraction point was obtained by RSM, at 28min and 66°C. From the bootstrap analysis a reliable ellipse was constructed, and the maximum amounts were located at 20-35min and 60-65ºC, confirming the maximum extraction point. These results suggest that the bootstrap method is useful in evaluating the reliability of the optimization of betacyanin extraction from beet, predicted by RSM.

Published: September 2024

The present study aimed to evaluate the concentration of heavy metals considered globally alarming, such as cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), lead (Pb) and zinc (Zn), in the surface water and in the sediment of urban rivers located in an area covered by the Guarani Aquifer, in Lages, southern Brazil. The water and sediment samples were collected in September and October 2016 in three urban rivers. The quantification of the metals was performed through an atomic absorption spectrometer. The levels of Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb and Zn in the control points (P1 and P7) presented a concentration below the level I proposed by Brazilian legislation 344/2004 of the National Environment Council (CONAMA), while the other points presented concentrations higher and above level I, evidencing an increase of metals in the rivers from upstream to downstream of the urban area of ​​Lages. Cr concentrations above level II proposed by Brazilian legislation at the mouth of the Carahá River were also found, and this value may have adverse effects on aquatic biota. The results show that urban rivers in the area covered by the Guarani Aquifer in Lages have been contaminated by toxic elements associated with anthropogenic activities.

This study aims to evaluate the chemical profile and biotechnological larvicidal potential of the nanoemulsion of the essential oil of Salvia officinalis L. The leaves of the plant were collected in São Luís, MA, from January to May 2021. The essential oil was extracted by hydrodistillation at 100°C for 3h. Chemical characterization was obtained by GC-MS. The oil-in-water nanoemulsion was formulated by the low-energy phase inversion method and subjected to thermodynamic stability tests. Antioxidant activity is performed by the spectrophotometric method of scavenging hydroxyl radicals from salicylic acid. For larvicidal activity, Aedes aegypti larvae were subjected to EO solutions and nanoemulsions in concentrations (10-100 mg L-1), larval mortality was evaluated, and the LC50 was determined by the Probit method. The majority compounds of the EO were: eucalyptol with 65.14%, camphor (30.63%), and α-Terpineol (1.53%). The formulations were characterized as nanoemulsions with a droplet size <200 nm. The PDI was <0.200, indicating a narrow size distribution. The antioxidant activity exhibited EC50 of 136.29 mg L-1 and 51.59 mg L-1. The nanoemulsion with larvicidal potential showed an LC50 of 71.17 mg L-1. The nanoemulsion showed bioactive potential for larvicidal action, which may be related to the presence of its chemical compounds, and its use is encouraged in the fight against Aedes aegypti.

Authors: Gavlak Guilherme , Oliveira Filho Paulo Costa de , Martins Kelly Geronazzo , Lombardi Kátia Cylene
Published: September 2024

Due to uncontrolled population growth and intensified anthropic activities, numerous environmental impacts occur in water bodies, such as the toxicity of their waters. This study aimed to evaluate the water toxicity of the Antas River through ecotoxicological bioassays using neonates of the microcrustacean Daphnia magna, and to relate it to land use and land cover in areas near the river. Fourteen sampling points were selected along the entire assessed stretch of the river, and water samples were collected and subjected to acute toxicity analyses using neonates. Land use and land cover mapping of the Antas River Watershed was generated, and an analysis was conducted within approximately a 400-meter radius from each sampling point. The occupation rates for each evaluated area were quantified and subsequently correlated with the obtained toxicity data. The results revealed a high significance level (99%) indicating that land use and land cover in the vicinity of water bodies directly influence water toxicity, impacting it in urban areas or preserving it in native forest areas, depending on the land use, as assessed through acute assays using neonates of the microcrustacean Daphnia magna.

Thalassocentricity of the coastal territories of Russia: residential and economic measurement
Authors: Druzhinin A.G.
Published: September 2024

In the XXI century, the development of the resource potential of the World Ocean is the basic condition for socio-economic development; this problem is also actualized for modern Russia, initiating the focus of human-geographical research, including directly on the coastal territories. The article is devoted to the conceptualization, parameterization and typologization of the phenomenon of “displacement to the sea” of the components of the spatial structure (residential and economic) of coastal territories, defined as “thalassocentricity”. The causes, manifestations and consequences of the thalassocentricity of multi-scale territorial socioeconomic systems are revealed, the place and role of this category in the conceptual and categorical apparatus of Human geography are shown. Based on demographic and economic statistics for 155 Russian municipalities with direct access to the sea, a multi-criteria assessment of the degree and dynamics (for 2010–2021) of the thalassocentricity of the coastal subjects of the Russian Federation is proposed. It was found that out of 26 coastal regions of the country, in six (Khabarovsk Krai, Kalmykia, Karelia, Yakutia, as well as the “new” – DNR and Zaporozhye Region), the effects of thalassocentricity occur exclusively at the
local level (closing in the contour of the coastal municipalities), in two more (Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug and Krasnoyarsk Krai) according to as marine economic activity increases, they spread to the vast Arctic periphery. The remaining 18 are classified as thalasso centered.
Comprehensive assessment of agricultural development in the Russia-Belarus border
region
Authors: Danshin A.I. , Radikevich A.V.
Published: September 2024

The main goal of this work is to search for new approaches to the study of agriculture in
territories within which there are contrasts in the level of agricultural development in particular and the level of socio-economic development in general. The work uses methods of gravitational fields and economic-geographical profiling along the conventional line Minsk - Moscow, and also tests for the current state of agriculture the approach to assessing the agricultural specialization of territories, first proposed by I. von Thünen. The level of agricultural development, assessed using these methods, is presented in ten-year dynamics.The use of these methods made it possible to identify
both poles of agricultural growth and depressed areas that lag behind in terms of the level of agricultural development and requirethe use of special instruments of
institutional and socio-economic policy to support theagricultural industry. As a result of applying profiling techniques and building potential models within the Republic of Belarus, it was possible to identify two poles of agricultural growth, as well as assess the level of gap in agricultural indicators when crossing the border. It has been established that in recent years, within the Russian sector of the border area, there has been an accelerated development of agriculture, due to the policy of import substitution in key agricultural sectors. At the same time, the agriculture of the border region, in general, being on the periphery of the countries, underrealizes the potential of the geographical location between the two largest sales markets of the Union State and currently needs more intensive development. Another conclusion is the correspondence of the agricultural specialization of the regions of Mezhcapital to the one identified in the works of J. von Thünen according to theoretical ideas about the specialization of agricultural production at a distance from large cities.
Spatial overview of center-periphery migration interactions in Russia
Authors: Mkrtchyan N.V.
Published: September 2024

The migration appeal of major cities and their suburbs (centers) and the outflow of the
population from the periphery in Russia is a well-documented phenomenon. Utilizing detailed spatial data, this study examines the spatial diversity of the migration balance of 137 identified centers, represented by cities with a population of 100,000 or more and their suburbs, and 82 peripheral areas for the 33years 2011-2020. The analysis encompasses not only the flow between centers and the periphery but also among individual centers, as well as migration involving the centers and peripheries within their regions and in interregional exchanges. Out of the variety of centers, 21 main ones are distinguished, concentrating the primary flow of population from peripheral territories and attracting populations from other centers. Meanwhile, half of the centers experienced migration loss. The centers leading the migration flow in each federal district are identified, with particular attention given to the migration balance characteristics of the largest centers. The data used allowed for analysis with and without considering auto-return, which impacts the scale of migration gain/loss, but, as it turned out, virtually does not alter the spatial pattern of population flow between centers and periphery.

Authors: Istiqomah Putri  , Ratih Dwi Astuti
Published: September 2024

Introduction: Pediatric abdominal emergencies demand swift and accurate diagnosis for optimal management. In resource-constrained settings, point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) has emerged as a valuable tool. This study aimed to evaluate the utility of ultrasound in diagnosing and managing pediatric abdominal emergencies in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Methods: A retrospective review of pediatric patients (age ≤ 18 years) presenting with acute abdominal pain to a tertiary care hospital in Jakarta from 2018 to 2023 was conducted. Data collected included demographics, clinical presentation, ultrasound findings, final diagnosis, and management decisions. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) of ultrasound for various abdominal emergencies were calculated.
Results: A total of 543 patients met the inclusion criteria. The most common diagnoses were appendicitis (n=187, 34.4%), intussusception (n=82, 15.1%), and gastroenteritis (n=75, 13.8%). Ultrasound demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing appendicitis (92% and 88%, respectively), intussusception (95% and 90%), and free fluid in the abdomen (98% and 94%). POCUS influenced management decisions in 68% of cases, including expediting surgery or avoiding unnecessary interventions.
Conclusion: Ultrasound is a valuable tool for the diagnosis and management of pediatric abdominal emergencies in Jakarta. Its high sensitivity and specificity, coupled with its point-of-care availability, make it particularly useful in resource-limited settings.

A novel decision-making approach based on interval-valued T-spherical fuzzy information with applications
Authors: Nazeer Muhammad Safdar , Ullah Kifayat , Hussain Amir
Published: September 2024

Multi-attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) is a very significant technique for selecting an alternative from the provided list. But the major problem is dealing with the information fusion during the information. Aczel-Alsina t-norm (AATN) and Aczel-Alsina t-conorm (AATCN) are the most generalized and flexible t-norm (TN) and t-conorm (TCN), which are used for information processing. Moreover, the interval-valued T-spherical fuzzy set (IVTSFS) is the latest framework to cover the maximum information from the real-life scenarios. Hence, the major contribution of this paper is to deal with the information during the MAGDM process by introducing new aggregation operators (AOs). Consequently, the interval-valued T-spherical fuzzy (IVTSF), Aczel-Alsina weighted averaging (IVTSFAAWA), IVTSF Aczel-Alsina (IVTSFAA) ordered weighted averaging (IVTSFAAOWA), IVTSFAA weighted geometric (IVTSFAAWG), IVTSFAA ordered weighted geometric (IVTSFAAOWG), and IVTSFAA hybrid weighted geometric (IVTSFAAHWG) operators are developed. It is shown that the proposed operators are valid and the results obtained are reliable by discussing some basic properties. To justify the developed AOs, an example of the MAGDM is discussed. The sensitivity of these AOs is observed keeping in view of the variable parameter. To show the importance of the newly developed theory, a comparison of the proposed AOs is established with already existing operators.

Published: September 2024

Einstein predicted a change in the energy of photons in the proximity of a gravitational field, the change being directly proportional with the distance from the gravitational source. In the following, we will present an approach to the experiment relying on the Einstein Equivalence Principle and on the recently derived expressions of the Doppler Effect for uniformly accelerated motion of the source and the receiver. We will conclude with a chapter on the numerical limits of applicability of the described method.
Regularity, synthesis, rigidity and analytic classification for linear ordinary differential equations of second order
Authors: León Víctor , Scárdua Bruno
Published: September 2024

We study second order linear homogeneous differential equations a(x)y'' + b(x)y' + c(x)y = 0 with analytic coefficients in a neighborhood of a regular singularity in the sense of Frobenius. These equations are model for a number of natural phenomena in sciences and applications in engineering. We address questions which can be divided in the following groups: (i) Regularity of solutions. (ii) Analytic classification of the differential equation. (iii) Formal and differentiable rigidity. (iv) Synthesis and uniqueness of ODEs with a prescribed solution. Our approach is inspired by elements from analytic theory of singularities and complex foliations, adapted to this framework. Our results also reinforce the connection between classical methods in second order analytic ODEs and (geometric) theory of singularities. Our results, though of a clear theoretical content, are important in justifying many procedures in the solution of such equations.
Cardiac Findings in Patients 6-60 Months of Age Filipinos with Acute Malnutrition: A Preliminary Study
Authors: Mendoza Roumilla , Colacion John , Salaya-Ruffert Ma. Shelah , Del Rosario Ethel
Published: September 2024

There is a consensus that cardiac size is reduced in proportion to body mass in malnourished children, but with conflicting findings in cardiac functions. This descriptive-cross sectional study was conducted at a tertiary hospital to evaluate the cardiac findings among patients 6-60 months old with acute malnutrition using chest x-ray, electrocardiogram (ECG), and 2-D echocardiogram (2D-echo). Included in the study were 22 patients. Fourteen (14) of whom had moderate acute malnutrition (MAM) while 8 had severe acute malnutrition (SAM). Both the MAM and SAM groups have cardiothoracic (CT) ratios within normal range but lower than the mean for MAM patients 6-36 months old. ECG studies generally showed low R wave amplitude in both groups and shortened PR interval in the SAM group. Sinus tachycardia appeared to be more common in the SAM group at 50% (4/8) compared to the MAM group at 21% (3/14). 2D-echo measurements of chamber and wall dimensions on both groups were within normal limits; comparison of both groups showed the SAM group had lower left atrial dimensions and left ventricular end-systolic dimensions (LVESD) compared to the MAM group (p values of 0.006 and 0.037 respectively). Pulmonary artery pressure was higher in SAM compared to MAM with a p value of 0.026. In both groups, systolic and diastolic functions were within normal range. MAM patients 6-36 months of age have CT ratios lower than the mean. Low R wave amplitudes are seen in both groups. Those with SAM have more tachycardia and shorter PR interval. There is a trend for the SAM group to have a smaller left atrial and left ventricular end-systolic dimensions and higher pulmonary artery pressure. Systolic and diastolic functions are preserved in both groups. These cardiac findings are suggestive of the effects of malnutrition on the heart.
El pensamiento crítico entre las perspectivas histórico-política y lógico-filosófica
Authors: Nolasco Álvarez Ivonne Rosalinda , Ramírez Pérez Jorge Ariel , de la Cruz Reyes Miriam
Published: September 2024

El objetivo del artículo es presentar elementos teóricos y empíricos para sostener que es necesario introducir el pensamiento crítico en su vertiente histórico-política en la educación superior. El pensamiento crítico tiene su origen en la filosofía kantiana. Kant postula que el pensamiento crítico tiene elementos de crítica lógica (crítica de la razón pura), pero también de crítica política (El conflicto de las facultades). Posterior a Kant el pensamiento crítico se bifurca en una vertiente puramente lógica y otra vertiente política. A partir de la revisión de la literatura sobre el pensamiento crítico en educación superior, se muestra que actualmente predomina la vertiente lógica, y va desapareciendo la vertiente política, que nosotros llamamos histórico-política. A partir de revisar mallas curriculares de las licenciaturas de la Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Morelos, y de observación participante en un curso de pensamiento crítico en una licenciatura en ciencias químicas, en este documento planteamos la importancia de recuperar el pensamiento crítico en su vertiente histórico-política, que posibilita la formación de profesionales que trascienden el sentido común respecto a problemas de género y de desigualdades sociales.

Published: September 2024

The relevance of the examined problem is connected with the necessity to develop measures to combat conductor galloping and the design of power transmission lines (ETL). The purpose of the research – to analyse statistical observation data on conductor galloping and apply a mathematical model to determine the parameters of galloping, to develop effective measures to combat conductor galloping and to improve the design of power lines. A sophisticated mathematical model was developed using Mathcad software to analyze conductor galloping in overhead power lines. This model, based on the equations of motion, predicts various galloping parameters under different conditions such as wind speed, span length, and initial mechanical stress. Time diagrams were constructed to represent linear and torsional motions, revealing correlations between amplitudes and frequencies. A comprehensive statistical analysis was performed on wire characteristics and split phase parameters to evaluate their impact on galloping patterns. Numerical methods, including the Runge-Kutta method, were employed to solve the equations and compute time-dependent behaviors. Results were visualized through graphs and diagrams to facilitate interpretation. The results revealed that conductor galloping occurs at wind speeds between 5 to 18 m/s, with significant occurrences at temperatures from 0°C to -10°C. The study identified that conductor galloping occurs within a wind velocity range of 5 to 13 m/s, predominantly with wind orientations between 30˚ and 90˚. The analysis showed that the frequency of galloping closely matches the natural oscillation frequency at low wind speeds but diverges with increasing wind speed and span length. These findings provide insights into the conditions under which conductor galloping is likely to occur and can inform design and operational strategies for overhead power lines.

The Japeledok Village Tobacco Farmers Group was recently established with a simple organizational structure due to a lack of insight into institutional organization. This becomes an obstacle in the continuity of the organization in the Farmer Group. One of the programs that is a priority for the Farmer Group is the use of Farmer Group land by cultivating tobacco in order to increase income. The obstacle faced by most Farmer Group members is that the tobacco they cultivate cannot grow optimally. The solution offered is to improve the skills of Farmer Group members in crop production on land and provide assistance regarding the institutional design of an organization to strengthen the knowledge and insight of Farmer Group members in running the organization. The implementation method is through training, mentoring and practice for Farmer Group members. Training and assistance in tobacco production. Training and assistance in managing organizations as well as understanding the basics of organizational institutional design. The results obtained from training on tobacco cultivation techniques for Farmer Group members are an increase in the knowledge and skills of Farmer Group members in tobacco plant production. Most of the harvest is sold within the Farmer Group members, so that the turnaround of small-scale businesses has been successfully implemented. The result of training and assistance in organizational governance is that the administrators and members of the Farmer Group are able to prepare basic budgets/household budgets. Increasing the active role of Farmer Group members in organizations is important for the sustainability of the existence of an organization.

Published: September 2024

The study aims to explore the linguistic trials of Balti-speaking English learners in using the lexical bundles in paragraph writing. Lexical bundles are linguistic terminologies that are run with a proper sequence of morphemes, and indeed, such lexical bundles possess a great role in one’s discourse and fluency. An inclusive case study approach was incorporated, focusing on a targeted team of Balti-speaking English learners enrolled to learn English as a second language in Skardu. The trials and errors of the Balti enrollees were explored in the targeted situation concerning the use of lexical bundles properly in English paragraph writing. The total lexical bundles identified in the targeted documents through textual and structural analyses were based on the fact that 'eleven were used, five were used with errors, and more than twelve were required to be added more appropriately and positively’. To improve the instructional strategies and techniques of language instructors, this study may offer great ideas to handle pedagogical challenges for language instructors in boosting instructional strategies and proficiency.

This research examines the concept of the ideal state according to the views of Islamic fundamentalists, namely Abu Al Ala Al Maududi, and its implications for multicultural countries such as Indonesia. Fundamentalism is always attached to certain religious groups that want the purification of religious teachings. Fundamentalists usually believe in the existence of literal (textual) truth, which is usually sourced from holy books that are absolute and basic. The method used in this research is qualitative, with a literature study as the basis for data collection and analysis. The results of this study are Al Maududi's thoughts about the state with the concept of government, which is based on three things, namely Universe, Al Hakimiyah Al Ilahiyah, and power in the field of legislation, which recognizes the Law of Allah SWT as the highest law in the world, and sovereignty, which is only owned by Allah SWT (God's sovereignty), or what is known as a limited popular sovereignty under the suzerainty of God, cannot be applied in Indonesia, even though Indonesia is a country that recognizes the existence of God, which is expressed through the ideology of Pancasila and the Indonesian Constitution. The implication is that if applied in a multicultural country like Indonesia, it will cause conflict and disintegration. In addition, it is feared that it will also cause discrimination against minorities and hegemonize the majority group.

This research examined the factors affecting students' readiness to study mathematics at the beginning of the 2024–2025 academic year. The study was carried out at MA Husnul Khotmah Kuningan. The sampling method used in this research was purposive sampling. The research employed a qualitative method with a case study model. Data collection instruments included questionnaires, interviews, and observations. The study results indicated that the factors with the highest percentages were cooperation among students, learning facilities, parental support, and the quality of teaching, which played a significant role in creating a supportive and effective learning environment. Indicators with the highest values highlight factors that profoundly and directly influence students' learning readiness. Factors such as student cooperation, learning facilities, parental support, and teaching quality significantly create a supportive and effective learning environment. While factors with lower percentage values, such as study habits and additional activities, are also important, they may require further attention to enhance overall learning readiness. Understanding and improving all these factors can help create a better learning environment and prepare students to face academic challenges.

This paper focuses on the problem that existing apple picking robots are unable to accurately recognize targets in complex and unstructured orchard environments. The target detection algorithm of the robot is optimized based on YOLOv5 and ResNet neural network model. First, considering the low resolution of the robot's own binocular camera, this paper adopts the RealSR model to process the image with super-resolution. Then, the YOLOv5 model is chosen as the optimized target detection algorithm, which can obtain the number, location, ripeness and quality information of apples in the image through training. Secondly, by comparing the VGG and ResNet models, which are widely used in the field of image classification, the ResNet model is finally chosen as the main body for recognizing and classifying different fruits, and its correct rate can reach more than 97%.

Published: September 2024

In agricultural market where the value of agricultural derivatives is unpredictable, having insight in volatilities of agricultural commodities in these markets is very important for investors and the government. Appling discrete maximum likelihood, we derived the equation for the volatility of the agricultural commodity price and applied it to the data obtained from World Food Programme (WFP) food prices in Nigeria. We then compared the annual volatilities of same agricultural commodity in Lagos market and Oyo market to gain some insight in the uncertainty in the agricultural commodity price. We obtained from our study that the price of Yam and Maize (White) is more stable in Lagos (Lagos) market than price of Maize (White) in Oyo (Ibadan) market. Furthermore, price of Cowpeas (Brown) is relatively stable in Ibadan market compared to Lagos market and we also deduced that the price volatility of Sorghum (White) is relatively stable in Ibadan market compared to Lagos market for the period considered.
