ARSITEKTUR POST-MODERN
Authors: Aini Qurratul , Hayatulla
Published: June 2024

Kebangkitan revolusi industry yang dimulai pada awal abad XIX telah menyebabkan terjadinya perubahan dalam skala besar pada pola hidup dan pola pikir masyarakat pada saat itu. Perubahan ini turut memberikan pengaruh besar dalam perkembangan arsitektur dan membawa perubahan tersendiri pada beberapa karya arsitektur. Dipelopori oleh Le Corbusier, arsitektur modern dengan tiga tahap perkembangannya mulai ditinggalkan pada tahun 1960-an. Sebagai penyempurnaan, lahirlah arsitektur post modern yang digagas oleh Charles Jencks. Beberapa bangunan yang mengaplikasikan design arsitektur post modern diantaranya adalah gedung bank nasional Georgia yang terletak di Tbilisi,Bangunan Hotel Asia yang terletak di Surakarta serta Museum Tsunami Aceh yang terletak di Banda Aceh. Arsitektur post modern selalu berusaha mempertahankan bangunan lama yang memiliki nilai sejarah tinggi dengan cara membuatnya berdampingan dengan bangunan baru sehinga keduanya akan saling mendukung. Meskipun tidak sepopuler gaya arsitektur lainnya, arsitektur post modern masih terus berkembang dan digunakan hingga saat ini.

Hair is the crown for everyone because hair functions aside from providing warmth, protection, beauty, and support. Hair loss that can cause baldness is one of the most serious problems for everyone. This study aimed to determine the activity of Hair Tonic combination formulations of kelor leaf ethanol extract (Moringa oleifera Lam.) and ethanol extracts of Fragrant Pandan  leaves (Pandanus amaryllifolius Roxb) on rat hair growth compared to single use. The method began with the maseration process of ethanol extract of kelor leaves and ethanol extract of Fragrant Pandan leaves, characterization of extracts (specific and non-specific parameters), chemical content testing of extracts and formulation of Hair Tonic preparations consisting of F1 (positive control), F2 (6% kelor leaf extract), F3 (6% ethanol pandan extract), F4 (combination of 2% kelor leaf extract with 4% ethanol pandan extract), F5 (3% kelor leaf ethanol extract and 3% ethanol pandan leaf extract), F6 (combination of 4% kelor leaf ethanol extract and 2% ethanol pandan leaf extract). The rat hair growth activity was divided into 8 groups: each rat's back was shaved to a size of 4 × 4 cm, the rats were left for 24 hours and then testing was carried out by spraying each formula, and hair growth was observed for 28 days. ...
Conceptualized Fusion Reactor based on Gas Turbine with High Temperature CO2
Authors: Kodama Noriyuki
Published: June 2024

Author discovered the mechanism of Cold fusion that covalent bond compression of D-D transition electron to deep orbit which distance is a few femto- meters from the nucleus, which electron density between d-d is so dense that it shields the coulomb repulsive force to cause Fusion, and discovered that nucleus is constituted only by proton and internal electron and neutron is a pair of proton and electron in deep orbit. Dr. Ohmasa claims that his transmutation reactor produce produces precious metal from base metal, which shows experimentally and author discovered that femto-H2 fusion to metal cause transmutation, which proves the existence of femto-H2, and femto-D2 therefore current nucleus model is probed to be incorrect. Dr. Ohmasa also claims that CO2 can be reduced by burning with fossil gas fuel mixed with H2 and O2, and author hypothesized the cause that compression of C-O bond cause fusion between C and O to be P and Si based on the correct nucleus model and based on author’s Cold fusion mechanism of bond compression. Developing this mechanism and hypothesis, I would like to propose the conceptualized fusion reactor based on gas turbine with high temperature CO2. D-D bond can be compressed by high temperature CO2 and by the collision of high-speed blades in gas turbine to cause D+D fusion and C+O fusion, which reduce the CO2 emission. Reactor needs to be cooling to generate power by steam turbine and high- speed blade rotation produce power and causes fusions.
Don Cupitt and the Realism/Non-Realism Debate
Authors: Eastwood Jessica
Published: June 2024

The structure of this paper is threefold. First, it will suggest that the religious realist and non-realist attitudes are representative of a spectrum of cognitive attitudes toward God rather than two polarising positions. Second, it will offer ‘thick’ and ‘thin’ forms of both attitudes, with ‘thickness’ representing the strength of metaphysical commitment. Finally, in answer to ‘what is at stake?’, the genuineness of religious non-realism and a ‘thin’ form of realism will be defended to a significant extent. Don Cupitt’s work will be commended for helping to open up the conversation and for introducing a range of authentic ways of talking and thinking about God.
Grand Design versus Multiarmed Spiral Galaxies: Dependence on Galaxy Structure
Authors: Smith Beverly J. , Watson Matthew , Giroux Mark L. , Struck Curtis
Published: June 2024

We developed an algorithm to use Galaxy Zoo 3D spiral arm masks produced by citizen scientist volunteers to semiautomatically classify spiral galaxies as either multiarmed or grand design spirals. Our final sample consists of 299 multiarmed and 245 grand design galaxies. On average, the grand design galaxies have smaller stellar masses than the multiarmed galaxies. For a given stellar mass, the grand design galaxies have larger concentrations, earlier Hubble types, smaller half-light radii, and larger central surface mass densities than the multiarmed galaxies. Lower-mass galaxies of both arm classes have later Hubble types and lower concentrations than higher-mass galaxies. In our sample, a higher fraction of grand design galaxies have classical bulges rather than pseudo-bulges, compared to multiarmed galaxies. These results are consistent with theoretical models and simulations, which suggest that dense classical bulges support the development and/or longevity of two-armed spiral patterns. Similar specific star formation rates (sSFRs) are found in multiarmed and grand design galaxies with similar stellar masses and concentrations. This implies that the sSFRs in spiral galaxies are a function of concentration and stellar mass, but independent of the number of spiral arms. Our classifications are consistent with arm counts from the Galaxy Zoo 2 project and published m = 3 Fourier amplitudes.
Chandra X-Ray Observations of PSR J1849-0001, Its Pulsar Wind Nebula, and the TeV Source HESS J1849-000
Authors: Gagnon Seth , Kargaltsev Oleg , Klingler Noel , Hare Jeremy , Yang Hui , Lange Alexander , Eagle Jordan
Published: June 2024

We obtained a 108 ks Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO) observation of PSR J1849-0001 and its pulsar wind nebula (PWN) coincident with the TeV source HESS J1849-000. By analyzing the new and old (archival) CXO data, we resolved the pulsar from the PWN, explored the PWN morphology on arcsecond and arcminute scales, and measured the spectra of different regions of the PWN. Both the pulsar and the compact inner PWN spectra are hard with power-law photon indices of 1.20 ± 0.07 and 1.49 ± 0.20, respectively. The jet-dominated PWN has a relatively low luminosity, lack of γ-ray pulsations, relatively hard and nonthermal spectrum of the pulsar, and sine-like pulse profile, which indicates a relatively small angle between the pulsar’s spin and magnetic dipole axis. In this respect, it shares similar properties with a few other so-called MeV pulsars. Although the joint X-ray and TeV spectral energy distribution can be roughly described by a single-zone model, the obtained magnetic field value is unrealistically low. A more realistic scenario is the presence of a relic PWN, no longer emitting synchrotron X-rays but still radiating in TeV via inverse-Compton upscattering. We also serendipitously detected surprisingly bright X-ray emission from a very wide binary whose components should not be interacting.
An Expanded Set of Los Alamos OPLIB Tables in MESA: Type-1 Rosseland-mean Opacities and Solar Models

Published: June 2024

We present a set of 1194 Type-1 Rosseland-mean opacity tables for four different metallicity mixtures. These new Los Alamos OPLIB atomic radiative opacity tables are an order of magnitude larger in number than any previous opacity table release, and span regimes where previous opacity tables have not existed. For example, the new set of opacity tables expands the metallicity range to Z = 10−6 to Z = 0.2, which allows improved accuracy of opacities at low and high metallicity, increases the table density in the metallicity range Z = 10−4 to Z = 0.1 to enhance the accuracy of opacities drawn from interpolations across neighboring metallicities, and adds entries for hydrogen mass fractions between X = 0 and X = 0.1 including X = 10−2, 10−3, 10−4, 10−5, 10−6 that can improve stellar models of hydrogen deficient stars. We implement these new OPLIB radiative opacity tables in MESA and find that calibrated solar models agree broadly with previously published helioseismic and solar neutrino results. We find differences between using the new 1194 OPLIB opacity tables and the 126 OPAL opacity tables range from ≈20% to 80% across individual chemical mixtures, up to ≈8% and ≈15% at the bottom and top of the solar convection zone respectively, and ≈7% in the solar core. We also find differences between standard solar models using different opacity table sources that are on par with altering the initial abundance mixture. We conclude that this new, open-access set of OPLIB opacity tables does not solve the solar modeling problem, and suggest the investigation of physical mechanisms other than the atomic radiative opacity.
Are we overdiagnosing multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C)? A case series of children with bacterial infection mimicking MIS-C
Authors: Kumar Anil , Rajvanshi Nikhil , Prabhakaran Kalyana , Saini Lokesh , Goyal Jagdish Prasad , Kumar Prawin
Published: June 2024

Introduction: Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a serious hyperinflammatory condition associated with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. Usually, the diagnosis of MIS-C is made by criteria defined by international organizations, which include specific clinical features, laboratory findings, and evidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection. We hereby present a case series of three children. The objective of this case series, involving chart review of medical records of children admitted with MIS-C, is to emphasize that the features of MIS-C may overlap with other conditions.
Case presentation: Three children were presented with MIS-C based on World Health Organization (WHO) criteria and given treatment for the same. However, due to persistent symptoms, they were further worked up and diagnosed to have underlying bacterial infections which included liver abscess, enteric fever, or urinary tract infection.
Conclusions: The criteria for MIS-C may overlap with other conditions, particularly bacterial infection that may lead to overdiagnosis of MIS-C. Therefore, one should be very careful in making an MIS-C diagnosis and other differential diagnoses should be considered when the symptoms persist or worsen.
Purulent lymphadenitis caused by ST59 community-associated Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in an infant
Authors: Ren Yifan
Published: June 2024

Introduction: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA), which has the potential to produce serious infections, was a common cause of skin and soft tissue infections, acute purulent lymphadenitis was rare.
Case report: The patient was a female infant with lumps, tenderness, and fever on the right side of the neck and groin. Laboratory tests suggested a bacterial infection. The diagnosis of acute purulent lymphadenitis was made based on the clinical signs and the results of a supporting exam. After three days, MRSA developed in the secretions of suppurative lymph nodes. Her mother's nasopharyngeal swab sample results revealed MRSA. The genotypes of two bacterial strains that underwent molecular analysis were identical.
Results: 17 days after admission, the patient showed signs of clinical recovery.
Conclusions: The incident brought to light the possible spread of CA-MRSA in the Chinese population. Even without a definite path of infection, CA-MRSA should be taken into consideration when the standard treatment for children with acute purulent lymphadenitis is ineffective. Early infancy MRSA acquisition may be mostly caused by maternal-infant horizontal transmission.

Published: June 2024

Introduction: The objective of the present study was to report, for the first time, the presence of canine parvovirus type 2c (CPV-2c) in domesticated dogs with acute gastroenteritis and to characterize the antigenic variants circulating in Palestine.
Methodology: A veterinary clinical-based epidemiological study was carried out between December 2022 and April 2023. Fifty fecal samples were collected from dogs with gastroenteritis and screened for CPV-2 infection by polymerase chain reaction. The distribution of positive cases according to various epidemiological factors was studied. Partial sequencing of the viral protein 2 (VP2) gene was performed for the analysis of CPV-2 variants.
Results: Most of the investigated samples (60%; n = 50) during the study period were found positive for CPV-2 infection. There was no difference in the distribution of positive cases of CPV-2 infection based on age group, gender, location, and vaccination status. The analysis of nucleotide and amino acid sequences from amplified products, as well as phylogenetic analysis, revealed the presence of CPV-2c clustered with Asian CPV-2c variants.
Conclusions: In summary, this study represents the initial genetic analysis of CPV-2 present in Palestinian dogs with gastroenteritis and provides evidence that confirms the existence of the CPV-2c variants. To determine the prevailing CPV-2 variant associated with the infection, it is crucial to conduct further sequence analysis using large populations of both domestic and wild canines.

Introduction: Serratia marcescens is an opportunistic pathogen found ubiquitously in the environment and associated with a wide range of nosocomial infections. This multidrug-resistant bacterium has been a cause of concern for hospitals and healthcare facilities due to its ability to spread rapidly and cause outbreaks. Next generation sequencing genotyping of bacterial isolates has proven to be a valuable tool for tracking the spread and transmission of nosocomial infections. This has allowed for the identification of outbreaks and transmission chains, as well as determining whether cases are due to endogenous or exogenous sources. Evidence of nosocomial transmission has been gathered through genotyping methods. The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic diversity of carbapenemase-producing S. marcescens in an outbreak at a public hospital in Cuiaba, MT, Brazil.
Methodology: Ten isolates of S. marcenses were sequenced and antibiotic resistance profiles analyzed over 12 days.
Results: The isolates were clonal and multidrug resistant. Gentamycin and tigecycline had sensitivity in 90% and 80% isolates, respectively. Genomic analysis identified several genes that encode β-lactamases, aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes, efflux pumps, and other virulence factors.
Conclusions: Systematic surveillance is crucial in monitoring the evolution of S. marcescens genotypes, as it can lead to early detection and prevention of outbreaks.
Prototype Biodiversity Digital Twin: Phylogenetic Diversity
Authors: Mikryukov Vladimir , Abarenkov Kessy , Jeppesen Thomas , Schigel Dmitry , Frøslev Tobias
Published: June 2024

Phylogenetic diversity (PD) represents a fundamental measure of biodiversity, encapsulating the extent of evolutionary history within species groups. This measure, pivotal for understanding biodiversity's full dimension, has gained recognition by major environmental and scientific organisations, including the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services. Unlike traditional taxonomic richness, PD offers a comprehensive, evolutionary perspective on biodiversity, essential for conservation planning and biodiversity management. This manuscript describes the development of a BioDT (Biodiversity Digital Twin) prototype, aimed at facilitating the calculation and visualisation of biodiversity metrics from global, dynamic data sources. By utilising the PhyloNext pipeline and integrating with global phylogenetic and species occurrence databases like the Open Tree of Life (OToL) and the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF), the prototype aims to significantly reduce computation time and enhance user interaction. This enables dynamic visualisation and potentially hypothesis testing, making it a valuable tool for researchers, monitoring initiatives, policy-makers and the public. The prototype's development focuses on improving the PhyloNext pipeline's scalability and creating a more intuitive user interface, expanding its utility for conservation efforts and biodiversity exploration. Our work illustrates the potential impact of the BioDT prototype in supporting diverse user groups in visualising and exploring PD, thus contributing to more informed decision-making in conservation and biodiversity management.
« Nous à la campagne, l’écologie, on la connaît ». Contestations et appropriations des injonctions environnementales par des Gilets jaunes ruraux
Authors: Rubert Aldo
Published: June 2024

Le texte explore la stigmatisation des modes de vie ruraux comme « antiécologiques », notamment à travers la mobilisation des Gilets jaunes. Bien qu’initialement critiqués pour leur opposition à la taxe carbone, les Gilets jaunes expriment un sentiment d’injustice plus large envers une fiscalité écologique perçue comme inéquitable. Ils partagent des attitudes favorables à la protection de l’environnement, tout en se méfiant des discours moralisateurs de l’écologie dominante et ses injonctions.Un réseau de distribution de fruits et légumes créé par un collectif de Gilets jaunes apparaît comme un lieu d’observation des sensibilités variées envers l’écologie. L’article met en lumière la diversité des modes de contestation de l’écologie institutionnelle, l’appropriation différenciée de l’enjeu écologique et la responsabilisation d’autres acteurs dans les dégradations environnementales. Face à une image statique des frontières de classe, les Gilets jaunes proches du pôle diplômé des classes moyennes adoptent le « vivre avec moins » et expérimentent des conversions écologiques relativement radicales. Les Gilets jaunes appartenant aux classes populaires relisent par ailleurs leur style de vie sobre comme écologique et peuvent s’aligner à des pratiques de consommation engagée.
L’agroécologie en projets. Comment s’institutionnalise la marginalisation de la « transition agricole » en France, au Brésil et à Cuba
Authors: Aureille Marie , Pahun Jeanne , Carcelle Sébastien
Published: June 2024

En France, au Brésil ou à Cuba, la mise à l’agenda de la promesse de la « transition agroécologique » a suivi des trajectoires différentes. Son opérationnalisation épouse toutefois une forme commune, celles des projets (appels à projets, projets de développement, projets de recherche). Alors que les politiques agricoles productivistes continuent de drainer la grande majorité des ressources financières et institutionnelles, ce recours aux projets permet la mise en scène du volontarisme des États en matière de verdissement de leur secteur agricole et entretient le récit d’une « transition agroécologique » en train d’advenir. Le choix privilégié de cet instrument d’action publique ne conduit pas à sortir l’agroécologie de sa marginalité par son inscription au sein de politiques de transition agricole, mais il tend plutôt à institutionnaliser sa marginalisation. Bénéficiant avant tout à des acteurs intermédiaires chargés de faire le lien entre financeurs et mondes agricoles, sélectionnant un nombre réduit d’agriculteurs ou d’agricultrices exemplaires ; les projets agroécologiques financent davantage des mises en réseaux que des changements de pratiques dans les exploitations.
L’evolució de l’espai en la darrera narrativa de Mercè Rodoreda: de la realitat al símbol
Authors: Cortés Orts Carles
Published: June 2024

On analyse ici l'évolution du symbolisme dans l'espace des récits de Mercè Rodoreda. Celui-ci présente une expressivité accrue dans les derniers livres publiés (Viatges i flors, Quanta, quanta guerra... et La mort i la primavera), qui ont en commun le développement d'espaces mythiques où les personnages s'offrent dans leur nudité expressive: des environnements bien différents des milieux rationnels et urbains de romans antérieurs. Tout cela dans le but de favoriser l'expression intime des personnages dans des univers atemporels et des espaces pas vraiment définis. Rodoreda offre dans ces ouvrages une vision plus profonde, qui acquiert à travers le symbole une nouvelle force expressive, et confirme une solide trajectoire qui se serait certainement poursuivie si l'auteur avait pu continuer son œuvre.

Jaume I: imatge republicana d’un rei
Authors: Gabriel Pere
Published: June 2024

L'objet de cet article est d'étudier la figure de Jacques Ier telle qu'elle apparaît, en marge des commémorations officielles d'orientation clairement catholique et conservatrice, dans la presse républicaine catalaniste de l'année 1908: tandis que la presse satirique s'amuse à reprendre, du théâtre populaire de l'époque, l'image d'un roi aux multiples aventures amoureuses, la presse «sérieuse» s'associe dans une certaine mesure à l'entreprise de mythification du personnage, en insistant toutefois sur des vertus plus proches de l'idéal républicain, telles que la tolérance et le respect des libertés collectives1.
La política de les autoritats franquistes enfront de la cultura catalana l’any 1939: el cas del Principat, Mallorca i el País Valencià
Authors: Ripoll Faust
Published: June 2024

La répression franquiste contre la langue et la culture catalanes, au cours de l'année 1939, n'a pas eu la même intensité en Catalogne, au Pays valencien et à Majorque. En effet, chaque territoire partait d'une situation politique différente, et les autorités locales pouvaient, dans certains cas, moduler la portée des mesures répressives. On observe en outre, au long de l'année, un renforcement de la ligne politique la plus dure contre la culture catalane.
Enfants et parents : des pratiques vidéoludiques plurielles pour se rencontrer
Authors: Petruzzellis Stacie , Jacobs Anaïs
Published: June 2024

La question du rapport aux jeux vidéo est quasiment permanente au sein d’un Dispositif Institut Thérapeutique Éducatif et Pédagogique (DITEP) qui accueille des enfants et adolescents présentant des troubles du comportement. Notre contribution s’appuie sur des fragments cliniques recueillis au sein d’un DITEP et interroge la place que peuvent avoir les parents autour du jeu vidéo. Nous montrons ainsi que la possible rencontre parent-enfant dépasse le cadre du jouer ensemble et mettons en évidence d’autres modalités d’être ensemble autour des pratiques vidéoludiques : les pratiques spectatorielles, langagières, transmissives, structurantes, dialogiques et contractuelles.
Usage du rétrogaming en médiation thérapeutique : une mise en histoire intergénérationnelle
Authors: Haza-Pery Marion , Barsi Antoine
Published: June 2024

Les médiations numériques commencent à se répandre chez les cliniciens et dans des institutions pour travailler, via un médium, les problématiques des patients, en individuel ou en groupe. Dans l’éventail de ces pratiques, se trouve le rétrogaming. Cet article déploie les spécificités du rétrogaming, tant en termes de contenus que d’enjeux intergénérationnels et d’historicisation possible. Le rétrogaming permet de convoquer des souvenirs d’un parent, d’un oncle, d’une tante, ou d’un grand-parent joueur. Le rétrogaming en thérapie donne ainsi la possibilité de créer une passerelle entre passé, présent et futur. Le cas de Danny illustre la construction d’une mythopoïèse familiale, initiée par le lien thérapeutique.
Career choice intention and work engagement of the audit professional in the Brazilian context
Authors: Krüger Cristiane , Dias Lopes Luís Felipe , Moraes dos Santos Rafaelly , Escalante Peiter Ester
Published: June 2024

Objective: This research analyzed the attitudinal, subjective norms, behavioral perception, and work engagement variables that determine the audit professional’s intention to choose to pursue the career.Method: The methodology is quantitative, descriptive, and survey. Data were obtained through the application of a questionnaire with 312 audit professionals in Brazil. Data analysis included structural equation modeling.Originality/Relevance: The theoretical gap lies in the relationship between the Theory of Planned Behavior and work engagement in audit professionals. In this way, the intention of deciding on a career does not consist only in choosing a specific branch within the accounting area, but also in the individual’s willingness and competence to implement their projects and in the future engagement to support it, which demonstrates the confidence of the search.Results: The results revealed that audit professionals are happy to follow in this area, feel confident, believe in their professional capacity, and intend to grow in their careers in the coming years. Professionals have high levels of vigor, dedication, and concentration, and are highly engaged in their work. Personal attitudes, subjective norms, vigor, and dedication presented an explanatory power of 58% of the intention, concluding that the relationships between the scales are supported.Theoretical contributions: The model for measuring the relationship between intention to choose a career and engagement at work was validated. The study fills a gap in the behavioral area, helping to understand the auditor's behavior.
Die armblanke-vraagstuk in Port Elizabeth, 1916 - 1934: 'n verkennende studie
Authors: Terblanche H.O.
Published: June 2024

Two factors were mainly responsible for the impoverished rural Afrikaner's trek to the city, namely rural impoverishment and urban industrialisation. Most of the poor whites were unskilled or semi-skilled workers. White unemployment was rife in Port Elizabeth during the 1920's and 1930's. Only a small percentage of the whites owned their own homes. Overcrowding was a common phenomenon. Korsten and Sidwell was in actual fact one big slum. The health conditions were shocking. Community poverty also adversely affected the urban Afrikaner as regards education. Many impoverished Afrikaners in the city thus developed a feeling of inferiority.
Uniqueness meets Semantics: A Novel Semantically Meaningful Bag-of-Words Approach for Matching Resumes to Job Profiles
Authors: Susan Seba , Sharma Muskan , Choudhary Gargi
Published: June 2024

In an increasingly competitive world, automated screening of resumes of candidates is the need of the hour given the large numbers of such resumes in career portals on the World Wide Web. Resume classification is a subset of the document classification problem in which the keywords extracted from the resume play a significant role in determining the job profile. In this paper, we explore the novel combination of uniqueness in terms of the number of occurrences of a keyword in a resume class as compared to the other resume classes, and the concept of semantics by representing the filtered keywords using word embeddings that can be used to find semantic similarities between resume documents. The principle of maximum entropy partitioning is used to find the keywords unique to a particular class. The aim is to use semantic representations of only those keywords that occur more frequently in one class more than in any other class; these are then passed as input to a Bidirectional long short-term memory (LSTM) for classification. Our experiments on a benchmark dataset proves that the proposed approach outperforms the state of the art in text classification by a significant margin proving the efficacy of our approach.

BACKGROUND

Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU), as severe complications of diabetes mellitus (DM), significantly compromise patient health and carry risks of amputation and mortality.

AIM

To offer new insights into the occurrence and development of DFU, focusing on the therapeutic mechanisms of X-Paste (XP) of wound healing in diabetic mice.

METHODS

Employing traditional Chinese medicine ointment preparation methods, XP combines various medicinal ingredients. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) identified XP’s main components. Using streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic, we aimed to investigate whether XP participated in the process of diabetic wound healing. RNA-sequencing analyzed gene expression differences between XP-treated and control groups. Molecular docking clarified XP’s treatment mechanisms for diabetic wound healing. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were used to investigate the effects of Andrographolide (Andro) on cell viability, reactive oxygen species generation, apoptosis, proliferation, and metastasis in vitro following exposure to high glucose (HG), while NF-E2-related factor-2 (Nrf2 ) knockdown elucidated Andro’s molecular mechanisms.

RESULTS

XP notably enhanced wound healing in mice, expediting the healing process. RNA-sequencing revealed Nrf2 upregulation in DM tissues following XP treatment. HPLC identified 21 primary XP components, with Andro exhibiting strong Nrf2 binding. Andro mitigated HG-induced HUVECs proliferation, metastasis, angiogenic injury, and inflammation inhibition. Andro alleviates HG-induced HUVECs damage through Nrf2 /HO-1 pathway activation, with Nrf2 knockdown reducing Andro’s proliferative and endothelial protective effects.

CONCLUSION

XP significantly promotes wound healing in STZ-induced diabetic models. As XP’s key component, Andro activates the Nrf2 /HO-1 signaling pathway, enhancing cell proliferation, tubule formation, and inflammation reduction.
Effect of Injector Type and Intake Boosting on Combustion,
Performance, and Emission Characteristics of a Spray-Guided Gasoline Direct
Injection Engine—A Computational Fluid Dynamics Study

In general, GDI engines operate with stratified mixtures at part-load conditions
enabling increased fuel economy with high power output, however, with a
compensation of increased soot emissions at part-load conditions. This is mainly
due to improper in-cylinder mixing of air and fuel leading to a sharp decrease
in gradient of reactant destruction term and heat release rate (HRR), resulting
in flame quenching. The type of fuel injector and engine operating conditions
play a significant role in the in-cylinder mixture formation. Therefore, in this
study, a CFD analysis is utilized to compare the effect of stratified mixture
combustion with multi-hole solid-cone and hollow-cone injectors on the
performance and emission characteristics of a spray-guided GDI engine.

The equivalence ratio (ϕ) from 0.6 to 0.8 with the constant
engine speed of 2000 rev/min is considered. For both injectors, the fuel
injection pressure of 200 bar is used with 60° spray-cone angles. For lean
boosting conditions, intake pressures of 1 bar, 1.2 bar, and 1.4 bar are
maintained for 0.8 equivalence ratio cases for both injectors. Results from the
CFD analysis are compared with those of the available experimental results with
good agreement. Analyzing the results, naturally aspirated and intake boosting
conditions for ϕ of 0.8, mixture distribution and flame
propagation for the multi-hole solid injector are better than hollow-cone
injector. Also, for the ϕ of 0.8, naturally aspirated mode, the
soot emissions by the hollow-cone injector are higher by about 90%, and the
NOx emissions are higher by about 19% compared to that of the
multi-hole solid-cone injector. Under boosted intake pressure conditions, for
the hollow-cone injector, the soot emissions are higher by about 97%–99%, and
NOx emissions are higher by about 7%–6% compared to the
multi-hole solid-cone injector. Also, HC and CO emissions are considerably lower
for the hollow-cone injector than that of the multi-hole solid-cone
injector.

Teaching Challenges in Limited Face-to-Face Classes in Mathematics Implementation: A Case Study of Modality Transitioning in a High School in the Philippines
Authors: Saga Emmanuel Salazar
Published: June 2024

The modality transitioning introduced by the Department of Education (DepED) gave hope to teachers and students in ensuring quality education amidst pandemic, however, unveiled numerous challenges. The study was concerned in identifying and investigating challenges of the teachers in teaching the students of Bayugan National Comprehensive High School in accordance with its fresh implementation of limited face to face classes. A case study research design was utilized in formulating the research undertaking. Round Table Discussion (RTD) was used by the researcher to gather data relevant to the study. Three (3) Mathematics teachers participated in the RTD. Nineteen (19) virtual participants participated also in the discussion. The conduct of the discussion was held at Bayugan National Comprehensive High School (BNCHS) and was streamed via google meet. Participants’ perspective revealed that pedagogical strategies were not given attention especially majority of the schools in the Philippines offered modular distance learning as a modality. Learners’ performance during distance learning is comparatively low than that of those participating in limited face-to-face classes. While teachers were less equipped with pedagogical strategies for the students under modular distance learning modality, there is a need for determining the challenges encountered in modality transitioning offered in BNCHS.

The  teacher  researcher  oversaw  the  progress  of  the 24 Thai male and female junior high mathematics students  (13-14  years old), and offered prompt guidance and support using normal  classroom techniques.The  findings  indicated  that  the utilization  of SSA and  GeoGebra  had  a  positive  impact  on  these  students'  academic performance  and  their  ability  to  take  charge  of  their  learning  in  mathematics classes. Specifically,  the  intervention  led  to 1) improved communication between student and teacher;  2) improved students’ understanding of what they needed to  learn;  3) improved students’ confidence to ask for help from the teacher;  4) promoted student  achievement; and 5) promoted self-directed learning in mathematics lessons.
Apakah Post-Truth Berbasis Ideologi Membahayakan Demokrasi: Perspektif Penyebaran Fakta Di Media Sosial
Authors: Sharine Sondang , Sitorus Fitzerald Kennedy
Published: June 2024

The “post-truth” phenomenon that shakes the foundations of democracy by prioritizing emotional and ideological narratives over objective facts, especially in the context of social media and ideology, threatens healthy political processes and participation in society in political decision making. The aim of this research is to understand the impact of ideology-based post-truth on the stability and integrity of democracy. The research methods used in this article are based on a comprehensive literature review. The results of this research are that ideology-based post-truth poses a serious threat to the health of democracy. This phenomenon not only creates deeper political polarization and results in the spread of damaging misinformation, but also adds to the foundations of democracy such as trust in institutions, political stability, and freedom of thought and expression. The public must understand that when ideology dominates the political narrative and objective facts are ignored, democracy becomes vulnerable to manipulation and power manipulation.

Authors: Bello Lukas Bruno Damazio , Calmon João Luiz
Published: June 2024

Os Agregados Reciclados (AR) emergem como uma solução para diminuir os impactos ambientais convertendo Resíduos da Construção e Demolição (RCD) em material de construção. O objetivo geral da pesquisa é realizar uma Avaliação do Ciclo de Vida (ACV) do uso de AR para a produção de materiais de construção civil à base de cimento, visando avaliar a influência do AR nos indicadores de impactos ambientais. Ao todo foram utilizados 24 traços para o uso do AR; em argamassas, blocos pré-fabricados, concreto sem fins estruturais, estruturais e autoadensáveis. Foi utilizado o programa OpenLCA para o cálculo dos impactos ambientais por meio de 5 diferentes métodos de impacto. Ao analisar o Inventário de Ciclo de Vida e interpretar os resultados da ACV nota-se que a produção de AR se apresenta como solução viável ambientalmente em relação ao material referência desde que os impactos evitados pela reciclagem sejam contabilizados. O transporte de RCD é o principal responsável pelos impactos gerados. O material reciclado se mostrou ambientalmente viável em diversos teores de substituição tendo obtido reduções de até 43,6% nos indicadores. O AR tem potencial para substituir os Agregados Naturais (AN) em quase todos os cenários analisados.
