Authors: De Vedia Lautaro , López Furst María José , Scapellato Pablo , Lopardo Gustavo , Clara Liliana , Lista Nicolás
Published: October 2023

Las infecciones por Staphylococcus aureus meticilino resistente adquirido en la comunidad (SAMR-AC) constituyen un problema emergente debido a su elevada virulencia y gran capacidad de diseminación. Para las infecciones invasivas, las recomendaciones publicadas sugieren vancomicina como droga de elección. Sin embargo, no está claro si otras alternativas pudieran ser mejores en determinadas situaciones, o si el uso de combinaciones de antibióticos sería beneficioso. No se han realizado trabajos que sugieran que alguna alternativa terapéutica sea preferible a otra para el tratamiento de pacientes con infecciones invasivas por SAMR-AC, por lo que las decisiones a tomar se basan en la extrapolación de datos de estudios realizados en otros contextos o en la opinión de expertos. Por tal motivo, se presenta esta revisión, con el objeto de poner en manos de los infectólogos y otros especialistas la evidencia disponible, a fin de intentar encontrar las mejores alternativas de tratamiento para estas infecciones.

Published: October 2023

This study aims to analyze the relationship between credit risk and operational risk on tax avoidance aggressiveness in banking companies in Indonesia for the period 2004-2021. The total observations in the study amounted to 271 samples. The testing method in this study uses multiple regression analysis with panel data. In general, the results show that Non-Performing Loans (NPL) is positively related to to Effective Tax Rates (ETR); in this case, an increase in NPL does not make companies more aggressive in tax avoidance. While Business Operating Profitability (BOPO) is negatively related ETR, in this case, an increase in BOPO makes the company more aggressive in tax avoidance. The results show significant differences in the effect of NPL and BOPO on ETR as a proxy for tax avoidance aggressiveness between the models analyzed. Although NPL shows a significant positive relationship with ETR in one of the first models, the relationship is not significant in the other models. Meanwhile, BOPO has an insignificant negative relationship with ETR in the first model but a negative significant relationship in the second model.

Authors: CİVAN Adem , KARHAN Aziz , CİVAN Alirıza Han
Published: October 2023

In this study, the aim is to examine the effect of plyometric training on anaerobic capacities in skateboarding athletes. A total of 14-18 28 skateboarding athletes, including 14 experimental and 14 control groups, participated in the study. As the experimental and control groups continued to practice skateboarding regularly, the research group had an extra 8 weeks and two days of plyometric training. Two measurements have been taken before and after the workout (pre-test). The data were obtained using the SPSS26 statistical package program. Since the number of participants is 28, the Data did not show a normal distribution. Wilkoxcan Test was used in the comparison of preliminary and final test in the group. The Man Whitney U test was used to compare the data between the groups and was accepted as a level of 0.05.The result was statistically compared between the test group and the control group, and it was determined that there was no significant difference between the vertical jump and anaerobic power parameters (p0.05). When we compare the intra-group data of the experimental group and the control group, there is a statistically significant difference in the mean of vertical spatter and anaerobic power (p0.05).As a result, there is no significant difference between the groups of 8 weeks of pliometric training, while a positive increase in vertical leap and anaerobic power parameters after the 8 weeks of pliometric training of the experimental group is observed. Regular planned and scheduled 8 weeks of pliometric training can be said to contribute to the development of parameters such as vertical jump, anaerobic power, and explosive force in athletes.Keywords: Plyometric training, explosive strength, skateboarding.

Authors: KIM Kibaek , PICKETT Andrew C. , STOKOWSKI Sarah , HAN Jinwook
Published: October 2023

Research in higher education has emphasized the importance of diversity by demonstrating that students’ exposure to diversity can support positive academic outcomes. Still, little attention has focused on the role of sport and recreation in promoting students’ inclusive thought patterns. This study analyzed the influence of sport spectatorship, physical activity participation, and team identification on college students’ (N=140) openness to diversity and academic outcomes. The results indicated that sport and recreational activity had a significant negative effect on students’ openness to diversity (β = -.20, p .05). Additionally, team identification was shown to have a significant negative effect on students’ academic outcomes (β = -.25, p .01). This study strived to provide insight into diversity efforts, demonstrating that sport and physical activity may serve as tools to assist in fostering inclusive excellence.
Unemployment Anxiety and Hopelessness in University Students
Authors: YALÇIN Yahya Gökhan
Published: October 2023

This study aims to examine the Unemployment Anxiety and Hopelessness levels of senior students of the Faculty of Sport Sciences. While the population of the study consists of senior students of the faculty of sports science, the sample group consists of 732 senior students, 209 women and 523 men, studying at Sports Sciences Faculties of Selçuk University, Niğde Ömer Halis Demir University, Aksaray University, Düzce University and Bursa Uludağ University. Ethics Committee approval no.145 was obtained from the "Selçuk University Faculty of Sports Sciences Non-Interventional Clinical Research Ethics Committee" for the study. While the personal information form created by the researcher was used to obtain socio-demographic data, the "Unemployment Anxiety" scale prepared by Ersoy-Kart and Erdost (2008) to measure the perceptions of students about being unemployed was used to determine unemployment anxiety. The scale was composed of psychometric questions prepared by Dursun and Aytaç (2009) in line with the relevant literature to determine the unemployment anxiety levels of students. Tekin Tayfun and Korkmaz (2016) used these psychometric questions and created a 25-item unemployment anxiety scale. The Beck Hopelessness Scale, which was developed by Beck et al. (1974) to measure the individual's negative perspectives towards the future, was used to determine hopelessness levels. The variance and homogeneity of the data were tested, the Independent Samples t test was used for pairwise comparisons, the One Way Anova test was used for multiple comparisons, and the Tukey HSD test was used to determine the source of difference.It was determined that the value of men in the dimension of environmental pressure depending on the gender factor was statistically higher than the value of women (p0.05), and the change in other dimensions was not statistically significant. While it was found that the hopelessness value of women was statistically higher than the value of men (p0.05), no statistical change was observed in the dimensions of unemployment anxiety and hopelessness depending on the age, economic status and field of study. In the light of these findings, it can be said that men have more unemployment anxiety, while women experience hopelessness at a higher level than men.Keywords: Sport, Unemployment, Anxiety, Hopelessness

Authors: STOKOWSKI Sarah , RUDD Andrew , CORR Chris , JOLLY Karina , FRIDLEY Alison
Published: October 2023

AbstractThe replication of successful National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) athletic departments is commonly pursued through the targeted hiring of athletic administrators at successful athletic departments. The significance on replicating organizational success through this transfer of people is indicative of the emphases placed on winning and revenue acquisition distinct to collegiate athletic departments. During this transfer, athletic directors inherently infuse transferred organizational practices and logics into the replicating organization. Utilizing Directors’ Cup points as a determinant metric of success, this study examined the relationship between success in Division I collegiate athletics and athletic department inclusivity of LGBTQI+ members. Findings illustrated that inclusivity of LGBTQI+ members were a statistically significant predictor of Directors’ Cup Scores among NCAA Division I member institutions. Such findings are indicative of the importance in fostering an inclusive organizational environment relative to success in collegiate athletics. Further implications illustrate the positive perpetuation of LGBTQI+ inclusion through the attempted replication of successful collegiate athletic departments.

Authors: BİRİCİK Yunus Sinan , KARABABA Burak , SİVRİKAYA Mehmet Haluk
Published: October 2023

In this study, it is aimed to examine the relationship between emotional reactivity, depression, anxiety and stress in elite athletes, considering that psychological qualities such as emotional reactivity and anxiety observed in athletes due to the heavy preparation conditions inherent in sports and the recent breaks in sports may increase the risk of psycho-social disorders. In this descriptive study, the relational survey model was used. The study group of the research consisted of a total of 209 elite level athletes, 59 women and 150 men, in different branches. As a data collection tool; “Emotional Responsiveness Scale” and “Turkish Short Form of Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (Dass 21)” were used. As a result of the study, there were significant differences between the emotional reactivity and depression, anxiety, and stress levels of the athletes involved in team sports compared to the athletes involved in individual sports, according to the sports branch. However, it has been determined that there is a positive and highly significant relationship between the emotional reactivity of the athletes and their depression, anxiety, and stress levels. As a result, considering the strong relationship between emotional reactivity and psychological adjustment skills, it is important to take protective measures in both social and professional lives of athletes for this concept, as an increase in the level of emotional reactivity may have positive relations with some psychological adjustment skills.Keywords: Anxiety, Depression, Elite Athlete, Emotional Reactivity, Stress

Published: October 2023

This study aimed to investigate the effects of an 8-week Zumba exercise program on weight, body fat percentage (BFP), body muscle mass (BMM), grip strength, back strength, flexibility, and MaxVo2 parameters in sedentary women. Twenty-four women (age: 21.54±1.84, height: 163.75±4.15) who did not engage in regular physical activity and had no history of illness or sports injuries volunteered to participate in the study. The participants were randomly divided into two groups: an experimental group (12 participants) and a control group (12 participants). The experimental group underwent 60-minute Zumba exercises three days a week. Weight, height, BFP, BMM, grip strength (right and left), flexibility, and MaxVo2 were measured. The data were analyzed using SPSS 25 statistical software package. Wilcoxon Test was used for intra-group pre-test and post-test comparisons, and a significance level of p0.05 was accepted. In the experimental group, significant differences were observed in weight, BFP, BMM, flexibility, back strength, and MaxVo2 values between the pre-test and post-test, while there was no statistically significant difference in grip strength (right and left) with p0.05. In the control group, a significant difference was observed in BFP. However, no statistically significant differences were found in weight, BMM, flexibility, grip strength (right and left), back strength, and MaxVo2 with p0.05. In conclusion, based on the results of this study and considering the literature, it can be stated that Zumba exercises, which are widely practiced today, expose individuals to high-intensity physical activity. Consequently, an 8-week Zumba exercise program may positively affect weight, body fat percentage, body muscle mass, MaxVo2, flexibility, and strength parameters.Keywords: Exercise, Physical Fitness, Strength, Zumba

Et s’il fallait améliorer le On Time Delivery (OTD) en réduisant la non-qualité ?
Authors: HAMOUDA Ibtissem
Published: October 2023

Atteindre un niveau de performance supply chain passe nécessairement par l'amélioration des taux de livraison. Le projet performances industrielles propose la constitution de grappes industrielles alors proches physiquement et librement organisées autour de la firme-pivot. Nous observons alors la mise en place des proximités (géographique et non géographiques) et l’évolution des indicateurs de performances industrielles que sont la qualité et les délais. A partir de l’observation de 420 données relevées auprès une grappe industrielle de 7 sous-traitants sur une période de 20 mois entre 2014 et 2019.  Deux résultats majeurs seront discutés : le premier est relatif à l’effet positif de l’activation des proximités sur les critères de performance à savoir la qualité et les délais de livraison ; le second résultat montrera une relation significativement négative entre la qualité et les délais de livraison. Nos résultats nous permettront de communiquer à tous les acteurs de la supply chain aéronautique qu’une orientation des stratégies de proximités des sous-traitants sur cette variable est primordial.
Chaîne logistique des PMEs de la sous-traitance électronique : comment améliorer les process logistiques grâce aux technologies digitales ?
Authors: VERNY Jérôme , OULMAKKI Ouail , DURAND Marc
Published: October 2023

L’industrie 4.0 ne cesse pas de se développer au sein de l’industrie mondiale alors que les petites et moyennes entreprise (PMEs) de sous-traitance électronique (EMS) françaises ont accumulé du retard sur la digitalisation de leurs processus supply chain. Souffrant d’une demande client très volatile et d’une importante valorisation de stock, elles n’avaient pas les ressources nécessaires pour mettre en place des outils facilitant la gestion de leur chaîne logistique. Quel sont les outils permettant de gérer au mieux la visibilité de la chaîne logistique des EMS ? L’arrivée des outils de pilotage intelligent, plus flexibles et moins coûteux est une opportunité pour ces PMEs de rattraper le retard accumulé. Disposant pour la plupart, de machines de production récentes, elles ont, grâce à l’internet des objets (IoT), la possibilité de lier leurs machines à de nouveaux systèmes d’informations pour pouvoir cartographier les flux et remonter de l’information dans le but d’optimiser la visibilité de leur chaîne logistique. De plus, les possibilités apportées par une récupération fiable de leurs données leur permettraient d’évoluer dans un environnement de collaboration horizontale et verticale dans le but de renforcer la place des PMEs dans cette industrie nouvelle. Dans cet article, nous tentons d’identifier l’apport des nouvelles technologies digitales à la chaine logistique des EMS, puis, de démontrer comment la collaboration-digitalisation-big-data constituent aujourd’hui les nouveaux paradigmes de la logistique et de l’industrie 4.0 à l’ère du digital.
Modelling and performance assessment of a two-bed adsorption chiller at different operating conditions
Authors: AMIN MAJDI
Published: October 2023

The study aims to assess the performance of an adsorption chiller using the Maxsorb III-methanol as an adsorbent pair. A modified transient lumped parameter model was developed to evaluate the dynamic behavior of the system at various operating parameters. Methanol is used as refrigerant as it has a significant latent heat of evaporation, high normal boiling point, low melting point and environmentally friendly. The results showed that the modified transient lumped parameter model can predict well the dynamic behavior of the adsorption chiller under different operating conditions. The system was able to produce about 13.65 kW (227 W kg-1) cooling capacity with a thermal COP of 0.73 at 85 and 30 oC driving source and cooling temperatures respectively. In addition, simulation tests were made to compare the performance of the Maxsorb III-methanol system with the different working pairs at the same physical dimensions of the present system components and operating parameters. At heat source temperatures of 85 oC which can be gained from waste heat or solar energy, the COP of the Maxsorb III-methanol cycle was about 12.0%, 44.0% and 6.6% higher than that of ACF-ethanol, silica-gel-water and activated charcoal/methanol cycles. The Maxsorb III/methanol adsorption cycle can work effectively with low grade heat sources, which can be gained from renewable energy or waste heat sources.

Kant e Rousseau: religião e teodiceia nas Anotações nas Observações sobre o Sentimento do Belo e do Sublime
Authors: Cunha Bruno
Published: October 2023

Tomando como referência o debate com Rousseau, meu objetivo nesse artigo é explicitar, por meio da análise de algumas dessas Anotações e com auxílio de algumas passagens de outros textos, as novas concepções kantianas sobre a religião e a teodiceia que emergiram em meados de 1760. Especificamente, busco mostrar que ao se apropriar criticamente do pensamento de Rousseau, Kant é levado às primeiras formulações de uma inovadora resposta para as questõees do mal moral e da justiça de Deus, que resultarío no rompimento com Leibniz e, consequentemente, na elaboração dos contornos mais essenciais da ética e da filosofia da religião que anos a frente seriam apresentadas como doutrinas filosóficas definitivas em seus trabalhos da maturidade.
Observações críticas acerca da prova kantiana da objetividade das representações na Dedução Transcendental das Categorias
Authors: Yokoyama Fernando Sposito
Published: October 2023

De acordo com uma tradicional linha interpretativa, a Dedução Transcendental apresentada por Kant na Crítica da Razão Pura contém um argumento anti-cético que se propõe a provar a objetividade de nossas representações mentais. Embora acreditemos que esta seja uma interpretação correta da Dedução, o presente artigo pretende questionar o real alcance deste seu argumento anti-cético. Segundo nossa análise, para provar a objetividade das nossas representações Kant precisa se comprometer com a tese de que a conformidade dos fenômenos à nossa faculdade de cognição não é meramente contingente, mas necessária. Porém, defenderemos que esta mesma tese nos obrigará a atribuir aos princípios regulativos da razão e/ou ao chamado "princípio de conformidade a fins" um papel por meio do qual eles afetarão de maneira negativa os resultados "anti-céticos" supostamente obtidos pelo argumento da Dedução.
Emoção, Razão e Ação em Kant
Authors: Borges Maria
Published: October 2023

Embora Kant nunca tenha usado a palavra "emoção" em seus escritos, ela tem um significado vital para entender sua filosofia. Nesta palestra, ofereço uma leitura do papel das emoções, levando em conta suas múltiplas manifestações na obra de Kant, incluindo afetos e paixõees. Eu exploro como, na visão de mundo de Kant, nossas ações são informadas, contextualizadas e dependentes da tensão entre emoção e razão. Por um lado, há emoções morais positivas que podem e devem ser cultivadas. Por outro lado, afetos e paixõees são considerados doenças da mente, na medida em que levam à fraqueza da vontade, no caso dos afetos, e ao mal, no caso das paixõees. Entender o papel dessas emoções enriquece nossa compreensão da teoria moral de Kant.
O realismo político de Kant
Authors: Peres Daniel Tourinho
Published: October 2023

O objetivo do artigo está em colocar em questão uma leitura dominante da filosofia política de Kant, que a aproxima de uma teoria da justiça. Ainda que o direito tenha um peso em seu pensamento político, direito e política, justiça e política não são o mesmo para Kant. Seu pensamento político contém uma dimensão que lida com a contingência, com a história, e não se esgota, portanto, em uma pura normatividade. O texto procura ressaltar essa dimensão, apontando para algumas questõees políticas que Kant enfrenta em seus textos
Bernard Williams, Thomas Nagel, Immanuel Kant e Moral Luck
Authors: Esteves Julio
Published: October 2023

Neste artigo, procedo a uma exposição crítica do conceito de moral luck da perspectiva da filosofia moral kantiana. Começo por um breve exame do conceito tal como originalmente introduzido por Bernard Williams. Em seguida, faço uma exposição e um exame crítico do conceito de moral luck nos 4 tipos defendidos por Thomas Nagel. Minha conclusão geral é a de que os sentidos de moral luck apresentados por Nagel são o resultado de uma alternância indevida entre o ponto de vista subjetivo e interno, ou seja, do agente ou ator, sobre as ações, e o ponto de vista objetivo e externo, ou seja, de um observador externo, sobre essas mesmas ações. Desse modo, eles não pertencem à filosofia moral e prática propriamente ditas. Encerro com uma breve exposição de um sentido de moral luck empregado por Kant no postulado da imortalidade da alma, no interior do conceito do sumo bem.
A Intuição Formal na Dedução Transcendental B
Authors: Marques José Luciano Verçosa
Published: October 2023

A intuição formal é a definição que Kant dá às representações de espaço e de tempo como intuições mesmas (KrV, B160-161n.). Na literatura de comentários de Kant, trata-se mais amplamente das implicações dessa definição para a compreensão da economia argumentativa da Crítica da Razão Pura, mais especificamente da relação entre a Estética Transcendental e a dedução transcendental B (2ª edição). Contudo, mesmo que se busque investigar essa questão, é preciso que se questione a função que a intuição formal tem na dedução transcendental B, a fim de se verificar por que as intuições do espaço e do tempo são necessárias. O presente artigo tem o objetivo de esclarecer essa função, demonstrando que a prova da validade objetiva das categorias depende das representações de espaço e de tempo como intuições formais, pois, sem elas, a determinação completa dos objetos da sensibilidade humana não seria possível. Esclarecer esse ponto não apenas permite a compreensão da prova contida na dedução transcendental B, mas confere um primeiro passo para solucionar os problemas argumentativos da Crítica, uma vez que se compreende o papel do espaço e do tempo na aplicação das categorias aos objetos sensíveis.
Sobre a Bipedia e Destinação da Razão: Rousseau entre (contra?) Kant e Moscati
Authors: Santos Leonardo Rennó Ribeiro
Published: October 2023

Trata-se de examinar a suposta rejeição de Kant da tese rousseauísta sobre a bipedia humana na sua resenha, publicada anonimamente, da obra do anatomista e médico italiano Pietro Moscati. Após uma apresentação sucinta sobre o contexto da recensão, será interrogado o real interesse de Kant em contrapor um dos pilares do Segundo Discurso de Rousseau à tese do italiano sobre a origem quadrúpede da espécie humana. Ao trazer para o primeiro plano da exposição o antagonismo entre animalidade e racionalidade que de algum modo parece sustentar a argumentação de Moscati, Kant estaria na verdade avaliando os dois grandes sistemas classificatórios da História Natural que ganharam um arranjo paradoxal nas mãos de Rousseau: os de Lineu e Buffon. Com isso, é possível ampliar a importância de Rousseau na filosofia de Kant demonstrando que o pensamento do genebrino também funciona como matriz teórica para a estruturação kantiana da sua antropologia física.
Identifying the sources and impacts of caregiver fatigue and burnout among mental health caregivers: A qualitative approach
Authors: Solikhah Fitriana Kurniasari
Published: October 2023

Introduction: To identify work-related issues to assist mental health caregivers in identifying sources and effects of caregiver burnout; to establish a dialogue between the participants and identified sources of stress in the workplace to address identified problems; and to make recommendations to local area health services to prevent and manage stressors in a mental health caregiver practice. The proposed study will help the sector by pinpointing the causes of caregiver burnout and burnout in the mental health caregiving profession and offering solutions to those causes. Method: 20 experienced registered caregivers working as mental health caregivers were recruited using the snowball method, and convenience sampling was used to target study participants interested in finding reasons for caregiver burnout and burnout at work. Semi-structured interviews were used to collect data, in which questions about relative impact are used to help clients focus on factors outside themselves to solve problems. Results: Emotional stress and burnout are the overarching themes of studies conducted on the effects of burnout on mental health caregivers in various settings: job insecurity and labor casualization; problems with management and systems; challenges with the nature of work; inadequate resources and services; problems with other health care; aggressive and criminal consumers; and belittling consumers and caregivers. Conclusion: The physical and emotional constraints of work all contribute to mental health caregivers’ experiences of caregiver burnout. Employees’ ability to deal with and respond to pressure in the workplace has been shown to be negatively affected by stress.
A21The use of simulated learning in prequalifying physiotherapy education: a scoping review
Authors: Room Jonathan , Stiger Robyn
Published: October 2023

Background and aim:

Simulation-based learning is an increasingly popular pedagogical approach. In some areas of physiotherapy, it is better been documented, for example, cardiorespiratory physiotherapy [1]. However, its use in other physiotherapy-related settings is less clear. Therefore, the aim of this project was to review the literature on simulation-based learning in prequalifying physiotherapy education, in order to explore where studies have taken place, which physiotherapy settings it is used in and indication of its effectiveness in teaching.

Methods:

This study was carried out based on the scoping review methodology outlined by Arksey and O’Malley [2]. The following databases were searched: AMED, BNI, CINAHL, Embase, Emcare, HMIC, Medline and PsychInfo, using specific search terms, to find studies involving the use of simulation in a prequalifying physiotherapy setting. Returned papers were screened using inclusion and exclusion criteria by two reviewers. The database search results were recorded and managed using Rayyan™ [3].

Results:

The database search retrieved 280 papers. Following the removal of duplicates, screening titles and abstracts and then screening full-text papers, 39 papers were included. The included studies were conducted in USA (n = 23), Australia (n = 10), Canada (n = 1), Finland (n = 1), Germany (1), Spain (1), Taiwan (1), UK (1). Simulation-based learning activities took place in a variety of physiotherapy settings. Most took place in an acute care or cardiorespiratory setting. There was a high level of variation in the reporting of the described simulation activity. This made it difficult to establish whether simulations were of high or low fidelity. Where reporting was well described, simulation activities tended to follow a framework of pre-brief, simulation and then debriefing. The majority of studies reported some measure of the effectiveness or feasibility of simulation-based learning.

Conclusion:

This scoping review identified a growing body of evidence supporting simulation-based learning in prequalifying physiotherapy education. However, to date, its use in pedagogical research has tended to focus on the cardiorespiratory setting, and it has often been researched as a tool to explore or enhance interprofessional collaboration. Whilst both of these areas are of value to the profession, there is scope to explore the use of simulation-based learning in settings such as musculoskeletal teaching. Further work on its use and value in the teaching of discrete complex tasks, in addition to collaborative practice, such as team working, de-escalation and communication is also needed.

Published: October 2023

Tarihsel gelişimi incelendiğinde lojistiğin en temel amacı her zaman insan ihtiyaçlarını karşılamak olmuştur. İhtiyaçlar zaman içerisinde gelişip şekillendikçe lojistiğe olan ihtiyaç sürekli şekilde artış göstermiştir. İnsan ihtiyaçlarının en fazla önem kazandığı zamanlar ise şüphesiz ki afet durumlarıdır. Afetler sırasında ve sonrasında bölge halkının yaşamsal faaliyetlerini sürdürebilmesi için gerekli olan malzemelerin afet bölgesine hızlı ve sorunsuz bir şekilde ulaştırılması afet lojistiği şeklinde tanımlanmaktadır. Ülkemizde afet sırasında ya da sonrasında yardım malzemelerinin ihtiyaç duyulan bölgeye zamanında ve doğru şekilde ulaştırılmasında çok sık yaşanan kronik sorunlar bulunmaktadır. İnsani yardımların ulaştırılması sırasında ortaya çıkan bu kronik sorunlara insansız hava aracı kullanımı çözüm olarak sunulmuştur. Önemi ve örnekleri üzerine yapılan araştırmada afet öncesinde alınan önlemlerin afet sonrasına nasıl sirayet ettiği ve uygulamada yaşanan engeller değerlendirilmiştir. Bu değerlendirme ile ortaya çıkarılan sebepler ile bundan sonraki afet lojistiği planlamasında yardım malzemelerinin ulaştırılmasında insansız hava araçlarının daha yoğun kullanımının gerekliliği ortaya çıkarılmıştır.

Published: October 2023

Acetobacter spp. that are commonly found on fruits, can perform oxidation processes, resulting in acetic acid production in vinegar. Besides that, Acetobacter spp. able to produce bacterial cellulose (BC), which is an essential by-product. This present study was carried out to isolate Acetobacter spp. from selected local fruits. Species verification of the bacterial isolates was performed using molecular and bioinformatic approaches. A total of six local fruits (starfruit, jackfruit, watermelon, pineapple, honeydew & banana) were subjected to seven days of fermentation in a brown sugar solution. Acetobacter spp. were isolated from the fermented medium using bromocresol green ethanol agar as the selective medium. Thirteen bacterial isolates were obtained and subjected to molecular works, including DNA extraction and PCR amplification using universal primers, targeting the 16S rRNA genes. PCR-amplified products were selected for single-pass sequencing. BLASTn analysis of the sequencing results showed three isolates (23.1%) belonging to Acetobacter tropicalis and one isolate (7.7%) representing Gluconobacter oxydans might have potential in BC production. However, the remaining nine isolates (69.2%) hit the Lactobacillus genus. Morphological observation using FESEM showed that the BC produced by all the positive bacterial isolates is similar to dried nata de coco and BC produced by Acetobacter xylinum. In addition, four similar regions of -OH stretch (3400 - 3300 cm-1), -CH stretch (2970 to 2800 cm-1), -OH bending (1620 cm-1), and -COC stretch (1100 to 1073 cm-1) are identified in the BC samples. In the future, the isolated Acetobacter and Gluconobacter strains could be further utilized for large-scale BC production in a suitable fermentation medium.

Published: October 2023

In this study, an artificial intelligence (AI)--based smart campus framework is built and optimized with the aim of improving user happiness, raising AI model performance, maximizing resource utilization, and promoting smart campus adoption. The study technique employs a mixed-methods approach that combines quantitative data analysis and qualitative user feedback in order to completely evaluate the effectiveness of the framework. Literature reviews, Questionnaires of 544, interviews of 56 persons, and observations are used to collect data on user satisfaction, AI model performance, optimization strategies, and adoption of smart campuses AI models are built using statistical methodology and AI techniques for performance evaluation. In the Smart Campus Framework based on Artificial Intelligence, we gathered the data by constructing IoT sensor networks for real-time monitoring and merging student data to provide insights into academic performance and student engagement. The findings indicate that, on average, users are satisfied, and the performance ratings for the AI models vary from 7.25 to 8.25. The smart campus framework is effective, as evidenced by the optimization metric's 7.53 average score. A score of 7.4 for smart campus adoption combines user knowledge, perceived utility, and perceived ease of use. The practical implications include better user experience, cost optimization, and smart campus architecture. Theoretical implications include the verification of the mixed-methods strategy and the creation of a framework for AI model optimization. The study's findings act as a model for upcoming smart campus research, spurring creativity and change in institutions of higher learning. The study’s limitations suggest that results can be generalized with minor contextual change and this is the biggest challenge for researchers and policy makers.
Sulfate isotope composition of Messinian evaporites in the Piedmont basin (Italy)
Authors: García-Veigas Javier , Gibert Luis , Cendón Dioni I. , Dela Pierre Francesco , Natalicchio Marcello , Artiaga David
Published: October 2023

The Piedmont basin (NW Italy) records a Messinian Salinity Crisis (MSC) succession including a selenite gypsum deposit assigned to the Primary Lower Gypsum (PLG, MSC stage 1). Strontium isotope ratios are in the range of the PLG deposits of the Mediterranean area. Sulfate isotope compositions of vertically oriented selenite gypsum beds, in the lower part of the succession, are similar to those reported in other PLG deposits. However, flattened branching selenite cones in the upper part show higher isotope compositions, mainly in δ34S values, suggesting intense BSR conditions, stronger than reported in other PLG deposits. We interpret this chemical shift during deposition of the upper part of the PLG as the result of increased marine restriction assisted by the marginal position of this basin in the Adriatic Gulf during the Apennine and Alpine uplifts.
