Published: January 2024

El presente documento aborda la necesidad de avanzar hacia cadenas de valor sustentables en los países de la Región Andina, centrándose en Colombia, Ecuador y Perú. La región enfrenta desafíos particulares, puesto que una proporción significativa de sus emisiones está vinculada a las actividades de exportación, principalmente de productos agrícolas y de combustibles fósiles. Sin embargo, la tendencia global hacia una economía descarbonizada presenta oportunidades en términos de integración con cadenas globales y regionales de valor, con beneficios potenciales en productividad, transferencia de conocimiento y generación de empleo. El estudio identifica eslabones y oportunidades con alto potencial para fortalecer la integración regional y reducir las emisiones de carbono. En particular, se estudian oportunidades en las cadenas de los sectores pesca, textil, producción de plásticos y caucho y automotriz. En ese sentido, se proponen cinco prioridades estratégicas para la inserción regional e internacional y otras cinco para promover la descarbonización, abarcando desde el fortalecimiento institucional hasta el financiamiento para la ejecución de proyectos sostenibles. El énfasis en el desarrollo de capacidades destaca a la educación y formación profesional como pilares clave para la región. La descarbonización no solo implica reducir emisiones, sino replantear la producción y el consumo, priorizando un modelo de economía circular con prácticas como reciclaje y reutilización. Para consolidar esta oportunidad, la cooperación internacional se postula como crucial, facilitando el acceso a tecnologías avanzadas y buenas prácticas. Por tal motivo, acuerdos bilaterales, multilaterales y con organismos regionales pueden desempeñar un papel clave en la promoción de una agenda común. Este informe proporciona una hoja de ruta, cuya ejecución dependerá de políticas bien formuladas y la capacidad de avanzar en una visión compartida para construir un futuro más próspero y sostenible.

The main function of bile acids (BA) is participation in the emulsification of dietary fats. Recently it has been discovered that BAs can also act as signaling molecules regulating the processes of their own synthesis and metabolism, as well as glucose and lipid metabolism. In addition, they affect the motility of the digestive tract and food intake. BA also interacts with the gut microbiota, a major player in their metabolism. Most of the regulatory actions of BAs are mediated by their receptors, the most important of which are the farnesoid X receptor (FXR) and the G protein-coupled receptor -TGR5, found in large amounts in the intestine, liver, adipose tissue and other tissues of the body. Recently, much attention has been paid to the influence of BA on various diseases and the possibility of using them in the treatment of e.g. inflammatory bowel disease, liver diseases, type 2 diabetes and obesity.

Authors: Putra I Nengah Kencana , Suparthana I Putu , Istri Sri Wiadnyani Anak Agung
Published: January 2024

Traditional noodles are often criticized for their low fiber content, a component with numerous health benefits in preventing degenerative diseases. Tannia, a potential food source in Indonesia, is recognized for its richness in fiber.  This study evaluated the chemical properties, cooking quality, and sensory aspects of noodles made from a composite of wheat flour and pregelatinized tannia flour (PTF). PTF, obtained by boiling tannia tuber slices at a temperature of 95°C for 10 minutes, drying, mashing, and sieving using a 60-mesh sieve, was used to substitute some of the wheat flour in dry noodles production. Substitution levels ranged from 0% (control) to 30%. Results showed a significant impact on protein, carbohydrate, and crude fiber content, as well as color, cooking quality, and sensory properties. Crude fiber increased with substitution, but above 25%, noodles exhibited lower elasticity compared to the control. In conclusion, a 25% substitution of wheat flour with PTF produced noodles with higher crude fiber content, better cooking quality, and sensory properties comparable to control noodles (without substitution). Noodles with 25% substitution had a crude fiber content of 4.89%, while control noodles were at 3.84%

Comparative study on perovskite solar cells using P_ZnO, Al_ZnO and In_ZnO as ETMs by SCAPS-1D
Authors: Kerara Meriem , Naas Abdelkrim , Reggab Khalid
Published: January 2024

This study uses the SCAPS 1D software to analyze solar cells with lead iodide perovskite (CH3NH3PbI3) as the active material and three different types of ZnO doping: undoped (P_ZnO), aluminum-doped (Al_ZnO), and indium-doped (In_ZnO) as the electron transport layer (ETL). This study aims to investigate the effects of charge carrier density on the J-V characteristics and electrical properties (Jsc, Voc, FF, Eff) of a solar cell structure made up of FTO/ETL/CH3NH3PbI3/CuInSe2/Au. Gold makes up the back contact, and tin oxide doped with fluorine (FTO) makes up the front contact. These two compounds have work roles are 5.47 eV and 4.4 eV respectively. Zinc oxide, both undoped and doped, makes up the electron transport layer, whereas methyl ammonium lead iodide makes up the absorber layer. Thin sheets, indium diselenide, and copper make up the hole transport layer. An optimal perovskite layer was obtained by decreasing the electron transportation layer's thickness (ETL) from 500 to 100 nm. For the In_ZnO ETL, this optimization was accomplished at 300K working temperature. Reduced ETL thickness was shown to result in higher efficiency (above 27%), as well as higher fill factor (above 87%). With a Voc value of 1.180V, a FF value of 87.55%, and a Jsc value of 26.276mA/cm2, the greatest efficiency performance of 27.15% was found. Using an absorber layer made of CH3NH3PbI3 with a thickness of 800 nm and indium-doped oxide of zinc (In_ZnO) is the layer that transports electrons, this performance was achieved. The results are obtained at a constant irradiance level of 1000 W/m2, under the AM1.5G spectrum.
Uso de ensaios tipo SPT para a análise de capacidade de carga de fundações em termos determinísticos e probabilísticos
Authors: Fonseca Jorge Felipe Garcez , Azevedo George Fernandes
Published: January 2024

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo elaborar uma análise determinística e probabilística de três elementos adotados de fundação profunda: estaca Strauss, Hélice contínua e Pré-moldada (centrifugada), por meio do uso de dados de ensaios tipo SPT. Para a análise determinística, utilizou-se o método de Aoki-Velloso (1975) para a determinação da capacidade de carga do elemento de fundação, que utiliza o índice de resistência à penetração do solo. Para a análise probabilística, utilizou-se a metodologia FOSM para o cálculo de probabilidade de ruptura para as três estacas escolhidas conforme os valores de diâmetro, valores médios dos índices de resistência a penetração e fator de correção apresentados na literatura. Tanto a abordagem determinística, quanto a abordagem probabilística, foi realizada por meio da implementação computacional, através de linguagem de programação com uso do software Matlab. A compilação dos dados obtidos dos ensaios tipo SPT foi estabelecida em planilhas no software Excel com os seguintes parâmetros: classificação do solo, nível de água, índices de resistência a penetração do solo, coeficiente em relação ao tipo de solo (K), coeficiente de atrito do solo (?) e variação da espessura das camadas. Em seguida, verificou-se capacidade de carga média e a probabilidade de ruptura para três cargas adotadas e três diâmetros conforme a literatura para cada estaca adotada. Após resultados obtidos, encontrou-se valores aceitáveis de probabilidade de ruptura para todas as estacas analisadas, tendo a estaca Strauss, com sua maior carga de trabalho de 600 kN e menor diâmetro de 0,27m, apresentando a maior probabilidade de ruptura e a estaca Hélice Contínua, com sua menor carga de trabalho de 500 kN e menor diâmetro de 0,275m, apresentando a menor probabilidade de ruptura. A estaca Pré-moldada (centrifugada), portanto, apresentou as maiores cargas últimas calculadas. Os resultados encontrados foram satisfatórios e os cálculos deverão servir de base para possíveis estudos geotécnicos envolvendo ensaios tipo SPT.

In vitro Studies on Anticoccidial Effects of Healthy Sheep Bile against Eimeria magna and Eimeria exigua Oocysts and Sporozoites Isolated from Domestic Rabbits
Authors: Murshed Mutee , Mares Mohammed M. , Aljawdah Hossam M.A. , Al-Quraishy Saleh
Published: January 2024

Background: Coccidiosis is one of the most common diseases that hinder the raising of rabbits. The disease causes symptoms such as diarrhea and loss of appetite. Acute infection causes bloody feces and negatively affects fertility. Diarrhea may be bloody due to the intestinal epithelium withering off as many oocysts and merozoites burst out of the cells. This leads to the deaths of rabbits resulting in huge economic losses for commercial rabbit systems. Methods: The study aims to determine the optimal effective concentration of bile collected from healthy sheep gall bladder inhibiting in vitro sporulation and viability of E. magna and E. exigua oocysts and sporozoites isolated from rabbit intestine. Un-sporulated oocysts were exposed (1×102) to six treatments: 2.5% potassium dichromate solution as the non-treated control, four concentrations of bile (12.5%, 25%, 50% and 100%) and Toltrazuril 25 mg/ml as traditional medicine for anti-oocyst activities. In addition, 250, 500, 750 and 1000 mg/mL concentrations of bile were evaluated for effect on sporozoite viability. The oocysts were examined after 25, 50, 75 and 100 hours and sporozoites after 12 and 24 hours of treatment. Result: GC-Mass analysis showed that sheep bile contains 12 biologically active compounds. In addition, quantitative analysis revealed total phenols (50.65±0.5) and total flavonoids (9.39±0.4). After 100 hours of exposure, sheep bile was able to prevent sporulation of E. magna and E. exigua oocysts at 100% and 50% concentrations and the rate of inhibition was about 96% and 79%, respectively. Additionally, bile exhibited the least discouraging of 11% at a dose of 125 mg/mL and the highest suppression of 95% of E. magna and E. exigua sporozoites viable at 1000 mg/ml. Generally, the inhibition rate typically increased with longer incubation times and greater doses. Findings have scientifically validated the use of bile in fighting against coccidiosis. Additional studies are required to separate the active compounds found in bile and their mechanisms of action and potential applications in rabbit farms.

A Systematic Overview of Reviews of the Use of Immersive Virtual Reality in Higher Education
Authors: Craig Chris D. , Kay Robin
Published: January 2024

Objectives: Immersive virtual reality (IVR) provides opportunities to learn within a nonphysical, digital world. The purpose of this critical review was to examine published systematic reviews regarding the benefits and challenges of IVR in higher education to inform best practices. Method: We followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Overviews of Reviews (PRIOR) to ensure transparency and to afford an evidence-based approach for synthesizing insights from a broad range of research. We analyzed and synthesized 10 reviews that include 332 studies with over 9,878 participants, following an integrated synthesis design process using thematic analysis and emergent coding. Results: Results confirmed the various benefits and challenges of IVR. The benefits include improved student learning and behaviours, while challenges include technology issues, behaviours that inhibit learning, and learning how to use IVR. Conclusions: IVR holds considerable potential in disciplines requiring practical applications such as simulation-based training and testing. However, further research into contexts such as participant age, gender, instructional design or learning theory, and longitudinal study is required. Finally, higher education stakeholders will benefit from budgeting time and costs, aligning IVR use with real-world applications, maintaining an adaptive mindset, and developing scaffolded instructional design. Implications for Theory and/or Practice: The primary benefits of student learning through IVR include enhanced skill acquisition, experiences, and learning outcomes. In addition, while immersive platforms housed in static rooms may present financial challenges, the emergence of—and increased investment into—untethered headsets and haptic controllers can reduce operational costs and increase student access to high-quality learning experiences.

Authors:  Aghdam  Kahnamouei 
Published: January 2024

Background and Objective: Using pain-relieving drugs during labor is now part of standard care in many countries throughout the world. There are many methods for reducing pain in labor time and each method has its own risks and benefits. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of pethidine versus paracetamol as an analgesic during labor in pregnant women. Methods: In this clinical trial study, 100 women expected to have a natural childbirth were observed and then randomly allocated two groups. The first groups receive paracetamol and the second group receives pethidine. The intensity of labor pain experienced by the subjects and the outcome of delivery were collected by a checklist. Results: There was a significant difference between the average pain score in paracetamol and pethidine groups in 30 minutes after intervention, but there was not a significant difference between the severity of the pain in two groups before intervention and 10 and 60min after intervention. No significant differences were seen regarding duration and interval of uterine contractions, neonatal complications, first minute Apgar score and side effects of used drugs between the two studied groups. There was a significant difference between the average of fifth minute Apgar score and mother SBP and RR after intervention between two groups. Conclusions: Use of paracetamol reduces pain more than pethidine within 30 minutes after intervention
Effects of Sodium Bicarbonate Supplementation on Repeated-sprint Ability in Professional vs. Amateur Soccer Players
Authors: Owen Adam L
Published: January 2024

Soccer is described within the research as a high-speed and high-intensity intermittent sport exposing players across many levels to a continued physical, physiological, technical, tactical and psychological demands. This variance of stressors encountered during actual training and competitive match-play have shown fatigue to become a prevalent issue, especially following periods of high intensity bouts. As a result this investigation has been developed in order to compare the effects of sodium bicarbonate ingestion (NaHCO3) on professional and amateur soccer player’s RSA (7 x professional players: mean±SD: age 21.7±2.1yrs; weight 79.7±9.5kg; and 7 x amateur players: mean±SD: age 22.8±1.2yrs; weight 79.3±4.9kg). Each player ingested 0.3g.kg-1 NaHCO3 or placebo microcrystalline cellulose (MC) in a randomized, double-blind, crossover order, 90-minutes before the repeated-sprint ability (RSA) test (5 x 6-seconds maximal-effort sprints). No differences were found in La- concentrations among professional or amateur players in MC or NaHCO3 conditions pre-exercise (P>0.05). The NaHCO3 trial revealed significantly higher post-exercise La-concentrations in professional (9.57±1.09vs. 10.77±0.90mmol/L-1) vs. amateur players (10.06±1.45 vs. 10.87±1.25 mmol/L-1). NaHCO3 resulted in significant improvements in mean power output in sprints 2 (512.3±199.4 vs. 547.6±185.3W) and 3 (468.6±209.4 vs. 491.6±199.0W) in amateurs, but no effect in professionals. Therefore, it may be suggested that amateur participants in soccer may benefit from NaHCO3 ingestion more than professional players as a result of their reduced physical conditioning level when compared to professional level players.
Community-Based Management of Acute Malnutrition: An Effective Intervention for Under-Nutrition
Authors: Kawuki Joseph
Published: January 2024

Globally, Acute Malnutrition (AM) causes more than 50% of childhood mortality among children under five years of age. Before embracing the use of ready-to-use therapeutic foods, the management of AM was restricted to hospitals bases. However, the current availability of Ready to Use Therapeutic Food (RUTF) has enabled undernourished children to be treated in their communities. RUTF has proved to be highly effective in treating severely malnourished children and allows households to facilitate food intake without supervision from health care professionals. Recent evidence shows that Community Management of Acute Malnutrition (CMAM) is a cost-effective method in management and prevention of malnutrition with high impact on population health, especially in reducing childhood mortality attributed to severe acute malnutrition (SAM). The unique components and principles of CMAM enable early detection and treatment of AM, with high coverage rates. Despite the proven effectiveness of CMAM programs, CMAM still draws insufficient attention for global implementation, and thus the need to integrate CMAM as well as health education and promotion programs into national health systems.

Knowledge of the history of information becomes important, considering that society is dynamic, transforms and shifts from an agricultural based-society to an industrial based, and recent becomes the information society today. Documentation technique used to collect data related to information preservation and information dissemination historically. This article uses historical analysis to explain the development of information, especially in its preservation and dissemination. This article found that the preservation of information has taken a long time, i.e. ever since humans as "being of thought" began to recognize how to write and read. The information is preserved in script form in the earliest form and then developed into print form. The information is disseminated through various media and types, ranging from manual to digital. Based on these findings, multiple forms of preservation and dissemination of information are constantly developing to create a society that puts information as wisdom in life.
Analysis of Child Education Welfare Policies from the Perspective of Social Justice: Focusing on Dream Start, Head Start, and Sure Start
Authors:   Korean Comparative Education Society, Hong Mi Yung , Lee Seula
Published: January 2024

[Purpose] This study investigates educational welfare policies to address the widening educational disparities among low-income children and adolescents under increasing social polarization. It focuses on analyzing the enactment of social justice in the Head Start program in the USA, Sure Start in the UK, and Dream Start in South Korea.
[Methods] Employing Gewirtz and Cribb's(2002) plural models of social justice, an extension of John Rawls' theory of distributive justice, this study examines the threefold aspects of 'distributive, cultural, and organizational justice' in these policies.
[Results] Key findings highlight that these policies variously achieve distributive, cultural, and organizational justice through effective resource allocation, information accessibility, recognition of beneficiary diversity, and democratic participation. Specific emphasis is placed on the need for equitable information distribution in distributive justice, acknowledgment of diversity in cultural justice, and democratic stakeholder participation in organizational justice.
[Conclusion] The study underscores the necessity of exploring how these justice dimensions interact and coexist, proposing policy recommendations for the future trajectory of child education welfare.

Authors:   Korean Comparative Education Society, Kim Kyuseok , Jo Seongbin , Chang Hyunjeong , Yang Sunghoon , Shin Hyunseok
Published: January 2024

[Purpose] This study examined diversity organizations within universities in South Korea and juxtaposed these findings with a case from the State University of New York (SUNY).
[Methods] Using a systematic literature review as a starting point, we interviewed five pivotal representatives from South Korean universities with a established diversity organization, as well as four chief diversity officers from SUNY. Anchoring our research in the Context-Input- Process-Product evaluation model, a multiple case study approach was adopted.
[Results] In the context of evaluation phase, the rise of diversity organizations was seen as a spontaneous response to cater to the shifting demands of higher education. From an input evaluation perspective, the objectives were deemed appropriate, yet there was a noticeable lack of internal resources and support mechanisms. When evaluating processes, they primarily functioned as consultative entities, thereby influencing their capacity to shape institutional decisions. Furthermore, product evaluation revealed that these organizations made commendable strides. This includes advocating for legislative reforms, revamping academic curricula, publicizing official statements, developing diversity index/metric, and orchestrating various publications and public events.
[Conclusion] Based on this foundation, it was suggested that the university's diversity policy, beyond its educational impact, should serve as a keyword for university innovation.
College-to-labor market transitions in Peru: Focusing on the stratification by higher education sector
Authors:   Korean Comparative Education Society, Shin Minkyung , Kim Heeyun
Published: January 2024

[Purpose] Despite their strong academic capabilities, the graduates of national universities in Peru tend to face more difficulties when searching a job or tend to find employment at workplaces that offer lower wages compared to those with similar abilities from private universities. This research aims to examine the factors associated with disparity in the labor outcomes of bachelor’s degree holders across socioeconomic status.
[Research Methods] We first reviewed the history, finance, and admissions system of Peruvian higher education institutions to ruminate on the divided higher education system where the high school to college pipelines differ depending on socioeconomic status. Next, we examined the factors associated with the disadvantages national university graduates experience in the context of racial discrimination, prejudice stemming from terrorism, and social capital.
[Results] First, college pipeline is divided across the level of socioeconomic background where students with higher status, predominantly white, are more likely to attend private universities. They achieve better labor outcomes due to the inequality in career opportunities favoring white candidates. Second, the history of national universities involved in the terrorist activities of radical communist guerrilla groups serves as a sort of stigma disadvantaging the graduates from national universities in labor market. Third, job seekers with higher socioeconomic status are able to effectively use their social networks, putting students from national universities at a disadvantage compared to private university graduates.
[Conclusion] Peruvian society is divided in terms of the student access to colleges depending on socioeconomic status, and this stratification extends to the labor market, resulting in the limitations on social mobility based on one's Alma mater. In order for Peruvian higher education to contribute to social mobility, these unfair employment factors arising from individual socioeconomic backgrounds need to be addressed, and diversity and equity in student access should be improved.
Analysis of Country-Level Institutional Factors related to Recognition of Immigrants’ Rights among Non-immigrant Adolescents: A Focus on Contact Theory
Authors:   Korean Comparative Education Society, Jeong Seongkyeong , Park Hwanbo
Published: January 2024

[Purpose] This study aims to explore how attitudes toward recognizing the diverse rights that immigrants should enjoy as humans change according to the level of institutionalization of equality in a country, with a focus on non-immigrant-background adolescents. Specifically, based on the contact theory that various types of 'contact' promote positive attitudes toward specific groups, the study examines the role that the nation's institutions can play as a contact environment.
[Methods]The study utilizes data from international assessments such as PISA, MIPEX, and World Bank to analyze factors at the individual, school, and national levels. A hierarchical linear model is applied to identify factors at three levels.
[Results] The main findings of this study are as follows. First, in countries with a high level of institutionalization of equality, non-immigrant-background adolescents show positive recognition of the rights of immigrant adolescents. Second, adolescents who have direct contact with immigrant peers in the friend group and the attending school tend to have a more positive recognition of immigrant rights than those who do not. Third, there is an interactive effect between the level of institutionalization of equality and direct contact with immigrant peers within the school.
[Conclusion] Direct contact with immigrant peers is crucial for non-immigrant-background adolescents to positively recognize the rights of immigrants, especially in peer groups where close relationships can be formed. Non-immigrant-background adolescents in countries with a high level of equality institutionalization tend to have a more positive recognition of immigrant rights, and state institutions guaranteeing equality can play a greater role in driving the attitude of non-immigrant-background adolescents in contact with immigrants, who are relatively distant in social relationships.

This study explores the relationship between self-efficacy, students' interest, and physics learning outcomes for students in classes XI IPA 1 and XI IPA 2 at SMA Negeri 16 Bungo. The learning outcomes are focused on the dimensions of conceptual and factual knowledge. Data on students' self-efficacy and interest were collected through a structured scale questionnaire, while data on students' learning outcomes in conceptual and factual knowledge were obtained through test instruments. The results indicate a positive correlation between students' self-efficacy, interest in learning, and physics learning outcomes. The correlation coefficient (r value) obtained is greater than the critical r value, with significance less than 0.05. Regression analysis reveals that the calculated F value is greater than the critical F value, and the calculated t value is greater than the critical t value, both with significance less than 0.05. Regression analysis also shows that self-efficacy and students' interest in learning affect physics learning outcomes by 68%, leaving 32% influenced by other factors not investigated in this study. For teachers, this research provides practical insights into the importance of developing students' self-efficacy and interest in the context of physics learning. By considering these aspects, teachers can design more effective teaching strategies to support students' optimal development in physics learning. In the theoretical framework, these findings support the concept that internal factors such as self-efficacy and interest play a crucial role in achieving good learning outcomes.

Tripolar Dislocation: Elbow Terrible Triad–Essex-Lopresti Injury–Trans-scaphoid Perilunate Dislocation
Authors: Dukan Ruben , Charles Seyrol , Marc Juvenspan , Emmanuel Masmejean , Salma Otayek , Marc Soubeyrand
Published: January 2024

Case:

A 23-year-old man presented with a right upper limb injury after a 10-m fall. Initial evaluation demonstrated a terrible triad elbow injury associated with a trans-scaphoid perilunate dislocation. Elbow stabilization with radial head replacement and carpal fixation was performed. Radiographs on postoperative day 7 demonstrated an ipsilateral Essex-Lopresti injury, which had been initially missed, and revision surgery was performed to reconstruct the interosseous membrane.

Conclusion:

Surgeons should maintain a high degree of suspicion for an ipsilateral Essex-Lopresti injury in patients with a terrible triad elbow fracture-dislocation in combination with a trans-scaphoid perilunate dislocation. Both preoperative imaging, including the contralateral side, and intraoperative evaluation are recommended to rule out longitudinal instability of the forearm in the setting of combined wrist and elbow fracture-dislocations.

Published: January 2024

Case:

A 15-year-old girl known with osteogenesis imperfecta presented with left femoral pain. She had been treated with multiple Fassier-Duval intramedullary nails, which were still in situ. Radiographic imaging demonstrated focal osteolysis and periosteal reaction at the telescopic junction of the rod in the distal femur. She underwent implant removal. Intraoperative sampling demonstrating acute sterile inflammation and presence of brownish colored particles consistent with metal debris and osteolysis. Explant analysis confirmed corrosion of the stainless-steel telescopic nail as the underlying cause.

Conclusion:

Osteolysis and periosteal reaction because of corrosion should be considered in conjunction with other more common causes of pain, such as fracture or infection, in patients treated with telescopic intramedullary nails.
