Decision Support Model of Rice Seeds Selection using Hybrid Multi Criteria Decision Making
Authors: - Andharini Dwi Cahyani
Published: June 2023

The initial stage in rice farming is the selection of rice seeds. To ensure a decent crop, seed selection must be taken into account. A decision support system may be a solution to this issue since the selection of the best rice seeds includes numerous elements connected to the considerations and preferences of each farmer group region. In this research, eight criteria were utilized to choose rice seeds: seed purity and uniformity, disease and pest resistance, agronomic traits, maturation and growth duration, environmental adaptability, farmer feedback and performance, yield potential, and grain quality. The weighting techniques utilized in this research are an arrangement of the Analytical Hierarchy Process and the Profile Matching Algorithm. When compared to expert judgements, the outcomes of this method's recommendations have a low error rate, with a MAPE value of 6.5%.

Published: June 2023

This study aimed to analyze lowland rice farming income and analyze the optimization of the use of production factors to achieve lowland rice farming efficiency in Telaga district, Gorontalo regency. This study was conducted from September to October 2021 by survey and interview, while the sampling used a simple random method. The data sources were both primary and secondary in type, while the data analysis used to examine the rice farming income used qualitative descriptive analysis. Further, the means to examine the optimization level of the production factor usage employed Cobb-Douglas analysis and Product Marginal Value. The findings showed the income average for a growing season reached Rp. 37.217.960 ha./GS., while the analysis results revealed the Revenue of Cost Ratio for farming achieved 2.14. Hence, the area is deemed feasible. Land area (X1), Seeds (X2), Fertilizer (X3), Pesticides (X4), and Labor (X5) had simultaneous effects on the income, but partially only fertilizer (X3) variable did not effect on the income. The use of production factors of land area, pesticides, and labor was not optimal because the optimization value obtained NMPxi 1, which means the need for reuse. Meanwhile, the use of seeds and urea fertilizer was not optimal yet because the optimization value obtained NMPxi 1, which means its usage needs improving to provide optimal interest for farmers at the research site.

Published: June 2023

Background: The objectives of this study were to compare the graft uptake and post-operative hearing results of underlay myringoplasty with temporalis fascia and perichondrial-cartilage composite graft in high risk perforations. Materials & Methods: Patients of ages of 13 years and above with diagnosis of chronic otitis media – mucosal type with high risk perforations undergoing myringoplasty were included. Criteria of high risk were >50% perforation of tympanic membrane, revision cases, absent/eroded handle of malleus, oedematous/unhealthy middle ear mucosa and marginal perforation of any size. Pure tone audiometry was done within 1 week before surgery. Seventy cases included for myringoplasty were randomly allocated by lottery method into two groups with 35 cases each in temporalis fascia group and perichondrial - cartilage composite graft group. After 6 weeks graft uptake results were assessed and post-operative hearing was evaluated and compared within and between the groups. Results: Graft uptake rates in temporalis fascia group and perichodrial - cartilage composite graft group were 88.57% and 91.43%, respectively with no statistically significant difference between the groups (p = 0.69). The mean pre- and post-operative air bone gaps in temporalis fascia group were 31.81 ± 10.49 dB and 17.87 ± 7.96 dB. The mean pre- and post-operative air bone gaps in perichondrial - cartilage composite group were 35.19 ±7.26 dB and 22.62 ± 8.77 dB. These differences in both the groups were statistically highly significant (p < 0.001) showing improvement in the hearing after surgery. The mean post-operative ABG gains were 13.94 ± 8.36 dB and 12.57 ± 8.21 dB in temporalis fascia and perichondrial - cartilage composite groups respectively.

Conclusion: The graft uptake rates and hearing results after perichondrial - cartilage composite graft are similar to those of temporalis fascia graft. Perichondrial- cartilage composite graft even though more rigid and thicker than temporalis fascia did not affect post-operative hearing results adversely
About one household item of the Altaians
Authors:   Gorno-Altaisk State University, Yamaeva Elizaveta E.
Published: June 2023

The article is devoted to the culture and religious beliefs of the Altaians and the use of household, family things in the course of rituals. In the traditional culture, reflecting the pastoral lifestyle of nomads, felt products occupy a special place. Everyday household items, such as felt, being included in the ritual field of the rite, acquire special significance. During a religious prayer, they can be presented as a bedding for the master spirit of Altai, celestial deities who can “descend from heaven” and sit on a carpet. In the first half of the XX century. in rituals, large felt carpets were widely used, which are used in everyday life as a “wrapping” material for newborn lambs and calves. Nowadays, the practice includes small family rugs, which the faithful take with them to individual or public prayers.
Democratization" of army and naval life: Russian servicemen in Finland during the socio-political transformations of the revolution 1917
Authors:   Institute of Language, Literature and History of the Karelian Science Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Dubrovskaya Elena Yu.
Published: June 2023

The materials of archival documents first introduced into scientific circulation from the funds of the National Archive of Finland, the Russian State Archive of the Navy in St. Petersburg, publications in the periodical press of 1917 and memoir literature examined aspects of socio-political transformations that took place during the Russian revolution in the Russian troops placed on the territory of the former autonomous Grand Duchy of Finland. The article considers the ambiguously assessed manifestations of the "democratization" of army and naval life, as well as their influence on the public mood of officers, soldiers and sailors. The consequences of the transformational processes that developed in the Russian troops at the final stage of the First World War are shown, both for the combat effectiveness of land and sea units, and for the relationship between military personnel and the population of Finland.
“The line of Uvarov” vs “the line of Magnitsky”: ideological struggle in the Ministry of Public Education in 1817–1821 and the first resignation of S. S. Uvarov
Authors:   St. Petersburg State University, Pustivoit Ivan S. , Zhukovskaya Tatiana N. ,   St. Petersburg Institute of History of the Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: June 2023

The article discusses the resignation of S. S. Uvarov from the post of trustee of the St. Petersburg educational district in 1821, a kind of fork in the history of the capital district, but also in the entire policy of education of the Alexander reign. Since the establishment of the Ministry of Spiritual Affairs and Public Education in 1817 and the appointment of a trustee of Emperor A. N. Golitsyn, the composition and mode of operation of the expert body of the MNP — the Main Board of Schools — has changed. In it, active exposing activities were launched by new members of M. L. Magnitsky and D. P. Runich, who became the mainstay of Golitsyn, in essence, his personal experts. S. S. Uvarov fought for several years with the “Golitsyn party” for the preservation of the principles of school and university reform, laid down in the legislation of 1802–1804. The confrontation within the MNP, which determined for a decade the fate of not only the metropolitan university, but also the general course in the management of education, unfolded between the “Magnitsky line” and the “Uvarov line” and began as early as 1817 on the issue of the “second category” of the Main Pedagogical Institute, in which Uvarov intended to concentrate the training of elementary school teachers using the Lancaster method. The confrontation turned into open forms in 1819 on the issue of closing the Kazan University. In the second half of 1819, Uvarov's opponents blocked a constructive discussion in the GPU and the adoption of a special charter for St. Petersburg University. In 1820, the confrontation between the two parties was aggravated by the history of the prohibition of the book of Professor A. P. Kunitsyn “Natural Law” and the exclusion of the subject itself from the program not only of St. Petersburg, but also of other universities. Then the Noble boarding school at St. Petersburg University became the object of denunciation, which led to personnel changes, a change in the mode of education and a tightening of disciplinary supervision. Based on archival and published sources, a chronicle of the dramatic events of the turn of the 1810s–1820s is presented, when, as a result of ideological sabotage, M. L. Magnitsky and D. P. Runich, there is a change in the vector in the policy of education in the direction of fighting the principles developed in 1802-1804: the autonomy of universities, the European orientation in scientific and personnel policy, the selectivity and softness of the class framework in the school system.

Metallothermic, especially magnesiothermic, solid-state reactions have been widely applied to synthesize various materials. However, further investigations regarding the use of this method for composite syntheses are needed because of the high reactivity of magnesium. Herein, we report an in situ magnesiothermic reduction to synthesize a composite of Ge@C as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries. The obtained electrode delivered a specific capacity of 454.2 mAh·g−1 after 200 cycles at a specific current of 1000 mA·g−1. The stable electrochemical performance and good rate performance of the electrode (432.3 mAh·g−1 at a specific current of 5000 mA·g−1) are attributed to the enhancement in distribution and chemical contact between Ge nanoparticles and the biomass-based carbon matrix. A comparison with other synthesis routes has been conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of contact formation during in situ synthesis.

Published: June 2023

The purpose of this study is a descriptive survey using data from the Korea national health and nutrition examination survey 2021 to identify factors that influence suicidal ideation in adults through machine learning. The subjects of the study were 208 adults with suicidal ideation and 4,449 adults without suicidal ideation, and machine learning was performed using a random forest model. Python 3.9.7, Scikit-learn 1.2.2, SciPy 1.614, and ELI5 packages were used for statistical analysis and model construction, and the mean, standard deviation, frequency, ratio, performance evaluation of the built model, and values of variables affecting suicidal thoughts were checked. The results showed that the average age of the subjects with suicidal ideation was 50.21±17.575 years, and their anxiety was 7.50±5.882, which was higher than that of adults without suicidal ideation (1.82±3.027). The overall performance of the constructed model was an AUC of 0.984 (95% CI, 0.984-0.984) and an accuracy of 0.945 (95% CI, 0.945-0.945). Factors influencing suicidal ideation were mainly related to mental health, with the most significant factor being depression for more than two weeks (0.998±0.038). Preemptive measures to prevent suicide by managing depression are needed, and programs to promote mental health and reduce psychological distress should be established.

GERMAN SPACE MILITARY POWER AND STRATEGY DEVELOPMENT
Authors: YEH Kuang-Ho
Published: June 2023

Space military power refers to a state actor entering space freely, seeking the goals of benefiting national space interests, maintaining space security and the capabilities of fulfilling space infrastructure, and implementing space military policies. As the earliest “space power” in the world, Germany has been committed to continuous capacity building and policy planning in the space military field. This article seeks to provide a detailed overview of Germany’s unique historical background and evolutionary logic on space military power and strategic origin. Based on literature review and studies pertaining to space military strategy theories, this article reveals basic facts of Germany’s space military development under the “ideality - materialization” mutual constructed context, and illuminates the implications of theoretical changes in Germany’s space military strategy guidance from peaceful utilization and passive defense to effective control.

This pioneering study endeavours to ascertain how the Covid-19 pandemic impacted on digitalisation in the European Union member states. The second objective is to elucidate the ties between digitalisation and security in terms of military spending, security threats, and the government effectiveness. Whilst using hierarchical clustering, it was detected that the era of pandemic had diversified the EU member states even more. The fixed-effect model confirmed that changes in digitalisation had been associated solely with government effectiveness.
NO LONGER IN THE SHADOW
Authors: URBANOVSKÁ Jana , NOVOTNÝ Antonín
Published: June 2023

The article explores the driving forces behind the increase in Czech-German defence cooperation since the mid-2010s. We argue that the growth is due to several factors: Germany’s more active role in European security, an upgrade of the political framework of Czech-German relations and the Czech Republic’s need to modernise its armed forces. Further enhancement of relations was hindered by underdeveloped cooperation within the defence industry. The war in Ukraine has broken through this ‘glass ceiling’, and the quality of Czech-German defence cooperation is increasing.
The smallest stag beetles (Coleoptera, Lucanidae): hidden paleodiversity in mid-Cretaceous Kachin amber from northern Myanmar
Authors: Yamamoto Shûhei
Published: June 2023

The fossil record of stag beetles (Lucanidae), especially in Mesozoic amber, is sparse. Four additional fossil lucanids preserved in mid-Cretaceous Kachin amber from northern Myanmar are here reported. All of these species are included in the primitive subfamily Aesalinae, and have been identified as: Protonicagus mandibularissp. nov. (tribe Nicagini); Cretognathus minutissimusgen. et sp. nov. (tribe Ceratognathini); Ceratognathini gen. et sp. indet. 1 (provisional assignment); and Ceratognathini gen. et sp. indet. 2 (provisional assignment). Except for Protonicagus mandibularissp. nov., the stag beetles appear to be connected to the continent of Gondwana, as with the Kachin amber paleofauna. More interestingly, these species have significantly smaller bodies than the extant species, with three of them measuring less than 3 mm, which makes them the smallest known species of Lucanidae. This finding is congruent with a trend toward miniaturization in several unrelated lineages of Kachin amber beetles, and it shows hidden paleodiversity of stag beetles during the Cretaceous.

Published: June 2023

The karstic cave, la Cueva de Los Sabinos, located in the Sierra de El Abra in the state of San Luis Potosí, Mexico, is mostly known for hosting a population of blind, depigmented Astyanax mexicanus cavefish. Herein, we report the discovery of a non-pigmented sponge (Porifera) in the final sump of this cave. No genus or species name could be attributed because we did not collect any specimen. Up to now, the sponge distribution seems restricted to a single pool in la Cueva de Los Sabinos, but further careful exploration of other pools of the cave as well as closely related cavities is warranted. To our knowledge, this observation constitutes the fourth report of a freshwater, white, cave-adapted sponge in the world and the first for Mexico and North America. It is also the eleventh troglobite species encountered in Los Sabinos. Our discovery confirms the exceptionally rich biodiversity of this cave ecosystem.
Irlande. Le système de santé sous pression malgré un plan de réforme ambitieux
Authors: Delahaie Noélie
Published: June 2023

La République d’Irlande est le seul pays d’Europe de l’Ouest où il n’existe pas d’accès universel aux soins de santé. Près de la moitié de la population dispose ainsi d’une assurance santé privée, laquelle permet un accès plus rapide aux soins, au détriment des assurés publics. Un plan de réforme inédit a certes été lancé en 2017 avec l’objectif d’universaliser l’accès aux soins mais sa très lente mise en œuvre suscite l’inquiétude du corps médical, qui redoute « une crise » du système de santé.

Le gouvernement espagnol de coalition de gauche a fait adopter deux lois (2021 et 2023) afin d’assurer la viabilité du système public de retraite. Ce processus de réforme est remarquable en ce qu’il résulte d’une concertation entre l’ensemble des forces politiques et sociales et qu’il est équilibré, puisque les mesures adoptées (augmentation des cotisations des employeurs et des salariés et surtaxe des hauts salaires) demandent des efforts à tous.

Les dépenses publiques et leurs déterminants
Authors: Lechevalier Arnaud , Vigny Léo
Published: June 2023

Si les dépenses publiques ont donné lieu à des débats nourris sur leurs finalités, leur efficacité, leur impact sur le solde budgétaire des administrations publiques, particulièrement dans le contexte européen, ou encore leurs effets sur la dynamique macroéconomique, l’examen de leurs déterminants a été peu présent dans le débat économique national. Pour y remédier, nous proposons une revue critique de la littérature de ces déterminants à l’échelle internationale. Depuis la fin du XIX e siècle, la croissance économique, la configuration des systèmes politiques, le mouvement de démocratisation des sociétés et les demandes sociales conflictuelles qui en résultent, plus récemment, les conséquences de l’internationalisation croissante des économies, ont été autant de déterminants majeurs mis en avant pour expliquer les évolutions des dépenses publiques. Cependant, les résultats économétriques qui ressortent des comparaisons internationales sont souvent contradictoires et ne permettent pas de trancher sur l’importance respective des variables explicatives. Pour sortir de cette impasse, nous proposons une démarche alternative appliquée aux économies européennes. Dans le cadre d’une approche socio-économique attentive au rôle de l’histoire et des institutions, nous mettons en avant, dans un premier temps, l’importance des complémentarités institutionnelles constitutives des modèles de croissance nationaux en Europe et le rôle qu’y jouent les dépenses publiques. Puis, dans un second temps, nous réinscrivons ces dynamiques dans le cadre des processus spécifiques d’intégration à l’œuvre au sein de l’Union économique et monétaire susceptibles de rendre compte des déterminants, au cours des deux dernières décennies, des trajectoires des dépenses publiques des États qui en sont membres.

This study was conducted to examine effects of ensiling, toasting or ensiling plus toasting in partial-crop field peas and faba beans harvested each with 375 g dry matter/kg (Biologische Bundesanstalt, Bundessortenamt und Chemische Industrie (BBCH) scale 79 and 81, respectively) on gas production and post-ruminal crude protein (PRCP) concentration byin vitro incubation in ruminal fluid batch-cultures. The silages made from partial-crop field peas and faba beans (Rostock Model Silages) had a pH of 4.3 and 4.6, respectively, and were not typically lactic acid dominated. The silages remained stable after opening for 100 h (peas) and 168 h (faba beans). Toasting was simulated in a drying oven at 160 °C for 60 min. Post-incubation pH and gas accumulation profiles were little affected by treatment. Ensiling did not alter effective PRCP. Toasting and ensiling plus toasting increased effective PRCP up to 25 and 20%-points in peas and up to 35 and 11%-points in faba beans, respectively. Ensiling increased non-protein nitrogen and soluble protein concentration, whilst toasting decreased soluble protein. Significant correlations existed between protein fraction B3 (neutral detergent-insoluble protein) and effective PRCP (r≥0.84;P<0.05) and fraction C (acid detergent-insoluble protein) and effective PRCP (r≥0.79;P<0.05). Ensiling and toasting both decreased arginine and lysine levels. It was concluded that partial-crop peas and faba beans with BBCH 79 and 81, respectively, can provide readily available nutrients and high-quality fibre in the residual plant. However, preserving by ensiling required balance between the reduction of non-protein nitrogen and fermentability characteristics. Toasting reduced protein solubility and increased PRCP, but it was not clear if PRCP was usable for ruminants or was partially bound into Maillard polymers.
Robustness analysis of exponential synchronization in complex dynamic networks with random perturbations
Authors: Zhang Qike , Fang Wenxiang , Xie Tao
Published: June 2023

This article discusses the robustness of exponential synchronization (ESy) of complex dynamic networks (CDNs) with random perturbations. Using the Gronwall-Bellman lemma and partial inequality techniques, by solving the transcendental equation, the maximum perturbation intensity of the CDN is estimated. This implies that the disturbed system achieves ESy if the disturbance intensity is within the range of our estimation. We illustrate the theoretical results with two numerical examples.
AD-DETR: DETR with asymmetrical relation and decoupled attention in crowded scenes
Authors: Huang Yueming , Yuan Guowu
Published: June 2023

Pedestrian detection in crowded scenes is widely used in computer vision. However, it still has two difficulties: 1) eliminating repeated predictions (multiple predictions corresponding to the same object); 2) false detection and missing detection due to the high scene occlusion rate and the small visible area of detected pedestrians. This paper presents a detection framework based on DETR (detection transformer) to address the above problems, and the model is called AD-DETR (asymmetrical relation detection transformer). We find that the symmetry in a DETR framework causes synchronous prediction updates and duplicate predictions. Therefore, we propose an asymmetric relationship fusion mechanism and let each query asymmetrically fuse the relative relationships of surrounding predictions to learn to eliminate duplicate predictions. Then, we propose a decoupled cross-attention head that allows the model to learn to restrict the range of attention to focus more on visible regions and regions that contribute more to confidence. The method can reduce the noise information introduced by the occluded objects to reduce the false detection rate. Meanwhile, in our proposed asymmetric relations module, we establish a way to encode the relative relation between sets of attention points and improve the baseline. Without additional annotations, combined with the deformable-DETR with Res50 as the backbone, our method can achieve an average precision of 92.6%, MR$ ^{-2} $ of 40.0% and Jaccard index of 84.4% on the challenging CrowdHuman dataset. Our method exceeds previous methods, such as Iter-E2EDet (progressive end-to-end object detection), MIP (one proposal, multiple predictions), etc. Experiments show that our method can significantly improve the performance of the query-based model for crowded scenes, and it is highly robust for the crowded scene.

Urbanization is a complex and multifaceted process that positively and negatively impacts society and the environment. To promote sustainable and inclusive urban development, it is essential to adopt a holistic and interdisciplinary approach that takes into account social, economic, and environmental factors, as well as the needs and perspectives of local communities and stakeholders. By adopting sustainable real estate practices, Pakistan can create a more sustainable and prosperous future for all its citizens. Likewise, real estate firms that aim to promote environmental, social, and economic sustainability in their operations should consider adopting a sustainable marketing approach. Real estate organizations may contribute to a more sustainable future while also benefiting their business by integrating sustainable practices into all facets of their operations and promoting sustainability to their clients and stakeholders. Sustainable marketing gives real estate companies a competitive edge and long-term profitability in addition to helping to safeguard the environment and society.
Circular Economy as a Sustainable Development Marketing Tool
Authors: Grzymala Zbigniew
Published: June 2023

The circular economy (also known as the circular economy and the circular economy) is one of the elements of the concept of sustainable development. Currently, it is most commonly described as an economy whose goal is to constantly maintain the highest value and utility of products, components, and materials in separate biological and technical cycles, and its task is ultimately to decouple economic development from the consumption of scarce resources. As humanity, we behave as if we have forgotten that we are part of the natural environment. The essence of assessing our progress has become the size of broadly understood consumption, which also pollutes our natural environment. In a sense, we have stopped observing nature, which can come to balance when it is out of balance. This chapter explores the circular economy as a sustainable development marketing tool.

Evaluation of Addon Effectiveness of Arogya Kashayam-20 in Mild-To-Moderate COVID-19 Cases – a Randomized Controlled Study
Authors: Shukla Umesh , Ujjaliya Nitin
Published: June 2023

Introduction:

The clinical features of the COVID-19 disease range from asymptomatic to mild–moderate symptoms. Owing to the severity and sudden onset of the disease, cases need hospital-based care. Several treatment protocols and strategies have been promoted and recommended by authorities including WHO, but nothing has actually been finalized to date. The present study was carried to evaluate the effectiveness of an Ayurvedic formulation, namely Arogya Kashayam-20 as an add-on to standard care in hospitalized cases of COVID-19.

Materials and Methods:

The study was a randomized controlled trial carried out at COVID Care Centre, xxxxxx with a sample size of 112 participants, aged between 16 and 60 years of either sex into two groups, namely, groups A and B. Both the groups received hydroxychloroquine, Vitamin C, and zinc as per the prevailing ICMR guidelines, and group “A” received additional Arogya Kashayam-20 for a 10-day duration. The outcome of the study was to see the negative conversion reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test after this duration.

Results:

Among the 60 cases in the study group (group A), 51 cases (85.00%) were reported with negative RT-PCR on the 10th day. Out of 52 cases registered in the control group (group B), 39 cases (75.00%) tested negative for RT-PCR. In both, groups all the cases were discharged asymptomatically on the 10th day as per the prevailing ICMR guidelines. No ADR/AE was reported during the period.

Conclusion:

The study observes that the add-on intervention group has a better outcome in terms of RT-PCR negative reports after 10 days compared to the control group.

Background:

Diabetes mellitus (DM) has turned out to be a considerable silent killer today within the world. It can be correlated with Madhumeha, mentioned under the types of Vataja Prameha. It can be managed conservatively with modifications in diet, exercise, medication, and lifestyle.

Aim:

The aim of this study was to compare the hypoglycemic effect of Haridra Churna and Chandraprabha Vati along with Pippali Churna in Madhumeha type 2 DM.

Materials and Methods:

Forty patients were allocated for intervention in two groups. In Group A, 3-g Haridra Churna and in Group B, 500-mg Chandraprabha Vati, both are given with 500-mg “Pippali Churna” twice in a day for 21 days, before meal with lukewarm water. The data study was analyzed by Chi-square/Fisher exact test for subjective criteria and Student's paired t-test for objective criteria to check the level of significance.

Results:

Significant results (P < 0.001) were found in subjective parameters were seen such as polyuria (Prabhuta Mutrata), polyphagia (Kshudhadhikya), polydipsia (Trishnadhikya), exhaustion, loss of body weight, giddiness, polyneuritis (Praharsha), and visual disturbance in both group. Haridra Churna had a significant impact (P < 0.01) on reducing the objective parameters such as fetal bovine serum (FBS), postprandial blood sugar, and urine (sugar) levels. However, in some of the symptomatic parameters, Chandraprabha Vati showed significant results which have become mandatory to be taken in consideration. However, in reducing the FBS levels, both Chandraprabha Vati and Haridra Churna were equally effective.

Conclusion:

Haridra Churna and Chandraprabh Vati along with Pippali Churna have showed significant improvement in the symptoms of Madhumeha and blood sugar levels.
