Published: August 2024

The clothing and textile industry is crucial to Pakistan's economy, significantly contributing to GDP and employment. Pakistan, with its strong expertise in cotton manufacturing, faces intense competition from China in the lucrative United States market. This study aims to evaluate Pakistan's textile and clothing exports to the United States and analyze its competitive advantages against China. Utilizing two analytical techniques, the Trade Competitiveness Index and Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA), this research assesses Pakistan's positioning in the US market relative to China. Secondary data from authoritative sources such as WITS and UN Comtrade, along with scholarly articles, serve as the basis for the analysis. The study focuses on three key textile divisions (SITC 26, SITC 65, and SITC 84) and examines their impact on US imports. Key findings indicate that while Pakistan has demonstrated growth in textile exports, particularly in textile fabrics (SITC 26) and clothing (SITC 84), it still lags behind China in overall export volume and market share. The RCA analysis reveals that Pakistan possesses a comparative advantage in specific textile categories, though China's market dominance remains unchallenged. The research identifies several challenges for Pakistan, including inefficient resource use, energy supply issues, high production costs, and outdated equipment. However, opportunities for improvement lie in enhancing quality standards, compliance with international trade requirements, and strategic policy enhancements. The study provides actionable recommendations to strengthen Pakistan’s competitiveness, such as modernizing production equipment, optimizing resource use, and exploring new markets. The findings of this study are crucial for policymakers, industry stakeholders, and businesses aiming to strengthen Pakistan's textile exports and navigate the highly competitive global textile landscape.

Enteropathy is a gastrointestinal disorder characterized by inflammation in the small intestine and one of the causes of enteropathy is the side effects of certain drugs, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The mechanism of NSAIDs, such as indomethacin, could inhibit prostaglandin synthesis, leading to a decrease in mucus production and small intestine integrity. To test the effects of a drug, it is necessary to undergo preclinical testing using animal models. Commonly used animal models such as mice and rats have several drawbacks including high cost, ethical issues, and long lifespan. Therefore, alternatives such as using invertebrate animals like Drosophila melanogaster as a more economical in vivo platform with genetic similarity to mammals and devoid of ethical concerns are needed. The aim of this study was to evaluate Drosophila melanogaster as an in vivo model organism in testing the side effects of pharmaceuticals that cause enteropathy. In this study, flies aged 3–5 days were starved and then placed into treatment vials comprising untreated control and indomethacin-treated (3.75 mM, 7.5 mM, and 15 mM). Survival analysis was conducted during the treatment period, followed by a Smurf assay test after seven days of treatment. Subsequently, the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine-related genes (drs and totA), mitochondria stability-related genes (tom40), and endogenous antioxidant-related genes (sod1, sod2, and cat) was performed using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Our data indicated that indomethacin did not impact lifespan or cause intestinal damage. However, we observed increased expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine-related genes, including drs, and a twofold increase in totA gene expression. Furthermore, there was a significant upregulation of mitochondrial stability gene tom40, endogenous antioxidant genes sod1 and cat, and a threefold increase in sod2 at 15 mM indomethacin. Although no phenotypical changes in gut integrity were detected, the increased expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine genes suggests the occurrence of inflammation in the indomethacin-treated flies.

Published: August 2024

Efficient access to timely information is critical in today's digital era. Web crawlers, automated programs that navigate the Internet, play an important role in collecting data from websites such as Kumparan, a leading news site in Indonesia. This research shows the effectiveness of the Breadth-First Search (BFS) and Depth-First Search (DFS) algorithms in indexing Kumparan content. The results of the research show that BFS consistently indexes more files comprehensively but with longer execution times compared to DFS, which provides faster initial results but with fewer files. For example, at depth 4 BFS indexed 949 files in 886.94 seconds, while DFS indexed 470 files in 233.02 seconds. These findings highlight the balance between precision and speed when selecting a crawling algorithm tailored to the needs of a particular website. This research provides insights into optimizing web crawler technology for complex websites such as Coil and suggests avenues for further research to improve permission efficiency and adaptability across a variety of crawling scenarios.

Authors: M. Adeyemi Maria
Published: August 2024

Phytochemicals are natural chemical constituents or bioactive compounds found in medicinal plants, aromatic plants, vegetables, fruits, leaves, flowers and roots which work in conjunction with nutrients and dietary fibers to act as defense against diseases and to slow the aging process. The medicinal values of plants lie in the abilities of these phytochemicals to produce definite physiological action on the human body. A variety of phytochemicals such as polyphenols, terpenoids, flavonoids, tannins, saponins, glycosides and steroids present in plants and their products are key factors in the treatment of several disorders including lifestyle disorders. Lifestyle disorders, also known as non-communicable diseases, are conditions associated with the way people live and behave. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) fact sheets, lifestyle disorders like obesity, diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, respiratory and gastrointestinal diseases account for 59 percent of the 56.5 million deaths annually and 45.9 percent of the global burden of disease (WHO, 2021). This review introduced and identified various phytochemicals reported with beneficial effects or roles and their functional classification or subclasses that have been identified to help prevent diseases associated with lifestyle changes.

Kegiatan pengabdian Masyarakat ini merujuk salah satu tujuan kemenag RI dalam meningkatkan nilai toleransi beragama.  Namun sayangnya berdasarkan observasi pengabdi kepada remaja di kota metro, banyak yang tidak memahami seluk beluk dari mana istilah moderasi beragama ini lahir. Teologi moderasi beragama menjadi rancu saat tidak ada yang memahami asal muasal istilah tersebut. Padahal, istilah moderasi beragama ini tidaklah jauh sama dengan pemahaman teologi yang sudah ada di Indonesia. Disamping itu, dunia literasi digital sudah sangat populer di masyarakat metro khususnya remaja. Sayangnya, banyak materi digital yang tidak mencerminkan dakwah moderasi dan cenderung mengandung provokasi radikal. Hal tersebut disebabkan karena para pengguna media digital di minim dalam menyebarkan dakwahnya lewat dunia digital ini. Sehingga usaha, upaya dan semangat juang moderasi bergama dalam menanamkan dakwah dunia digital perlu ditingkatkan. Oleh karena itu,kegiatan pengabdian masyrakat dengan metode ABCD (Assed Based Community Development) ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pemahaman remaja kota Metro tentang akar teologi moderasi beragama serta dapat mengaktualisasikan dalam bentuk karya  berbentuk flyer digital berbasis moderasi beragama.

Determination of Methdilazine by Extractive Colorimetric Method from Pharmaceutical Dosage Form
Authors: Rele Rajan V. , Tiwatane Prathamesh P.
Published: August 2024

Simple sensitive and accurate ion pair complex formation, extractive spectrophotometric methods have developed for the estimation of methdilazine hydrochloride in pharmaceutical dosage form. The methods are based on the formation of ion paired coloured complexes by the drug with reactive dyes like Congo red, picric acid and methyl orange in acidic medium. The ion associated complexes were formed and quantitatively extracted under the experimental condition in chloroform. The absorbance values were measured at 490 nm, 400 nm, and 430 nm respectively. The proposed methods were validated statistically. Recoveries of methods were carried out by standard addition method. The linearity was found to be 1-10 μg/ml, 2-12 μg/ml, and 1-14 μg/ml for methods respectively. The low values of standard deviation and percentage RSD indicate high precision of methods. Hence these methods are useful for routine estimation of methdilazine hydrochloride in pharmaceutical dosages.
Characterisation of the Glare Properties of Photovoltaic Modules and PV Systems Using a Photographic Camera
Authors: Hess Donat , Bucher Christof
Published: August 2024

With the increasing prevalence of photovoltaic (PV) installations on north-facing roofs in urban areas, the issue of glare on PV modules is becoming more significant. This paper presents a method for measuring and characterising the intensity and type of glare using a commercially available photo camera. The method utilises the fact that brightness information is inherently contained in a photograph. Due to the strong non-linearity of brightness information in an image, especially when using High Dynamic Range (HDR) functionality, an image needs to be divided into multiple sub-images with clearly defined settings, and the linear range extracted from each of them. The information obtained in this way is then assembled into a new image. The resulting luminance image describes the intensity and shape of glare, forming the basis for calculating the occurrence of glare (times and days of the year) in a simplified manner.

Published: August 2024

Background

The wrist is a complex joint that plays a role in several everyday tasks. Various radiological indices have been created to assess the alignment and structure of the wrist using standard X-ray images. Nevertheless, these indicators may differ based on variables such as age, gender, ethnicity, handedness, and wrist position. This research aimed to assess the radiological indices of the wrist in a group of healthy people from Jordan and investigate the impact of age and gender on these indices.

Methods

We obtained data from a sample of 385 patients who presented at our hospital with minor non-specific wrist pain and satisfied the specified criteria for inclusion. We conducted measurements of radial inclination, radial height, volar tilt, ulnar variance, and carpal height ratio using both anteroposterior and lateral views of the wrist. We used linear regression and independent sample t-test to examine the correlation between age, gender, and radiological indicators. The reliability of the measurements was assessed using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC).

Results

Our study revealed a negative correlation between age and carpal height ratio (r = -0.13, p = 0.03). However, no significant gender differences were seen in any of the radiological indices (p > 0.05). Our findings indicate that ulnar variance had the greatest level of reliability across observers, with an intra-observer intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) of 0.95 and an inter-observer ICC of 0.8. Conversely, volar tilt exhibited the lowest inter-observer reliability, with an ICC of 0.1.

Our results provide a valuable point of reference for the wrist morphology and alignment in the Jordanian population. Our suggestion is that the carpal height ratio might indicate alterations in the wrist joint due to aging, whereas ulnar variation may serve as a dependable indicator of wrist alignment. We suggest doing more research to investigate the biological and anatomical factors behind these results and to compare them with other demographic groups.

Bu çalışmada Türkiye’de ekonomik büyüme ile dış ticaret arasındaki etkileşimin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Türkiye’de 1980 yılından sonra ithalat gereksinimini azaltacak nitelikteki dış ticaret politikaları yerine ihracatı teşvik eden ve ihracatın artırılmasını hedefleyen dış ticaret politikaları benimsenmiştir. Çalışmada 1980-2019 yılları arasındaki dönemde ekonomik büyüme ile ihracat arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemek üzere kişi başına GSYH, mal ve hizmet ihracatı, brüt sermaye oluşumu ve nüfus değişkenlerine ait yıllık veriler kullanılmıştır. Değişkenlere ait serilerin birim kök analizi yapılmış ve nüfus değişkeni dışında birinci farklarında durağan oldukları anlaşılmıştır. Bağımlı ve bağımsız değişkenler arasındaki eş bütünleşme ilişkisi ARDL sınır testi ile analiz edilmiş ve sonrasında Toda-Yamamoto nedensellik testi uygulanmıştır. Yapılan testler sonucunda değişkenler arasında eş bütünleşme olduğu bulgusuna ulaşılmıştır. Uzun dönem ilişkisi açısından ihracatın ekonomik büyümeyi pozitif yönde etkilediği saptanmıştır. Nüfus değişkeninin ekonomik büyüme üzerindeki etkisinin negatif yönde olduğu saptanmıştır. Toda-Yamamoto nedensellik testine göre ise ihracattan ekonomik büyümeye doğru tek yönlü Granger nedensellik ilişkisi olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
分析大流行敘事之恐懼治理：以新冠疫情為例
Authors: 紀慧君 紀慧君
Published: August 2024

以往，衛生治理是以某個國界之內的範圍來考慮，倚靠的是主權國家通過邊境控制保護其領土，以避免傳染病的入侵。然而，當今傳染病的風險跨越國家疆域，必須使用跨越國界的方式治理，即從「國家威脅管理」轉移到「全球風險治理」。恐懼治理是公共衛生重要與核心措施，動員恐懼等同於控制社會。新冠疫情敘事多置入適當程度的恐懼，在恐懼中，安全與秩序是首要價值，這意味為達到安全，民眾必須放棄部份的自由。本研究分析做為風險生產者與治理者的世界衛生組織（WHO）治理新冠疫情的方式，分析其如何運用科學證據與專家言說建構恐懼，以瞭解大流行敘事如何產生於特定的社會和政治語境中，以及在其間涉及的權力、規訓、治理等議題。

 

In the past, public health governance was primarily concerned with a specific national territory and relied on sovereign states to protect their territory through border controls to prevent the invasion of infectious diseases. However, the risks of infectious diseases nowadays transcend national boundaries, necessitating a cross-border approach to disease governance, shifting from "national threat management" to "global risk governance." Fear is a crucial and central measure in public health, with pandemic narratives often incorporating an appropriate level of fear. In this context, security and order are paramount values, implying that in order to achieve security, individuals may need to relinquish certain freedoms and refrain from actions that would undermine the ability of governing institutions. This study analyzes the World Health Organization (WHO)’s approach to pandemic governance as both a "producer and governor of risks." This study examined how WHO utilizes scientific evidence and expert discourse to construct fear. This analysis seeks to understand how pandemic narratives emerge within specific social and political contexts and addresses issues related to power, regulation, and governance within the framework of fear-based governance.

 
Conceptual Flipsiding in/and Illiberal Imagination: Towards a Discourse-Conceptual Analysis
Authors: Krzyżanowski Michał , Krzyżanowska Natalia
Published: August 2024

This article highlights the increasingly prevalent process of so-called “conceptual flipsiding”: that is, of strategic reversal of notions once closely associated with liberal democracy, and of its key values of freedom, equality, tolerance, and the like, for the pronouncedly illiberal gains. Viewing the said process as part and parcel of the wider normalization of an illiberal imagination through strategic discourses and practices in and beyond the field of politics, the article contends that conceptual flipsiding increasingly allows recontextualizing and eventually normalizing a deeply illiberal understanding of polity, society, and community. Seeing these as increasingly redefined in recent years in many formerly liberal-democratic contexts by, especially, the far right and its numerous affiliates in politics, media, and/or un-civil society, the article argues for theoretical and analytical elaboration of conceptual flipsiding in order to depict its wider exploratory usability in grasping the current illiberal conceptual and discursive fluidity. The article emphasizes that, following the discourse-conceptual logic behind the conceptual flipsiding dynamics, one is able to deconstruct the ongoing infusion of key social and political concepts and discourses with new and often deeply illiberal understandings.

Background: RNA-based therapeutics, including antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs), small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), and messenger RNAs (mRNAs), offer significant promise in treating genetic and acquired diseases by targeting specific RNA sequences, encoding therapeutic proteins, or facilitating genome editing. However, the effective delivery of these RNA therapeutics remains a major challenge due to their large size, negative charge, and susceptibility to degradation. Aim: This review aims to explore advanced drug delivery systems developed to enhance the efficacy of RNA-based therapeutics, focusing on both viral and non-viral methods, and to evaluate the progress and limitations of these systems in clinical applications. Methods: The review synthesizes recent advancements in RNA delivery technologies, including viral vectors, lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), polymer-based nanoparticles, and hybrid systems. It also examines various targeting strategies such as passive and active targeting to improve the specificity and efficiency of RNA delivery. Results: Significant progress has been made with both viral and non-viral delivery systems. Viral vectors, though effective, face challenges related to immunogenicity and production costs. Non-viral systems, particularly lipid nanoparticles and polymer-based carriers, have shown promising results, with several FDA-approved products demonstrating clinical efficacy. Advances in targeting strategies, including ligand-based and antibody-based methods, have improved the precision of RNA delivery.
O manuscrito contra os protestantes do Padre João Baptista de Castro (1756)
Authors: Curado Manuel
Published: August 2024

The complete inventory of Portuguese documents regarding the Reformation and Portuguese perceptions of the lives of Protestant nations remains to be done. This paper aims to contribute to that inventory with a study of a manuscript from the Évora Public Library (codex CXII/2-13, on folio 51). The Discurso sobre Vários Pontos da Religião contra os Hereges Protestantes by Father João Baptista de Castro (1700-1775) lists, from a Catholic point of view, the prejudices Protestants had about the rites of Roman Catholicism. This text, dated February 2, 1756, also reveals Baptista de Castro’s extensive knowledge of Anglican authors little known in Portugal, such as Bishop Edward Stillingfleet (1635-1699) and the publicist Joseph Addison (1672-1719), founder of The Spectator. Baptista de Castro, better known for his popular works, in which he sometimes used the pseudonym Custodio Jesam Baratta (e.g., Recreaçam Proveytosa, 1728), does not rise above the level of anecdote. Figures like Luther and Henry VIII are belittled in his view as authors of erroneous interpretations of religious texts. He refuses, therefore, to attribute any merit to the Reformation movement. The paper concludes with a reflection on the enduring value of documents like this Discourse.

Este artigo teve como objetivo analisar quais fatores influenciaram o movimento de organização político-sindical das(os) assistentes sociais no contexto do novo sindicalismo na criação e posterior suspensão das atividades do Sindicato de Assistentes Sociais no estado do Paraná no período de 1983 a 1994. O estudo se baseou em pesquisa bibliográfica nas produções de autores que discutiram a temática, como também em pesquisa documental e de campo com entrevista semiestruturada com sujeitos que vivenciaram este processo. A análise teve como referência a compreensão de que a categoria profissional no estado do Paraná acompanhou o movimento de reorganização político-sindical da estrutura sindical por ramo de atividade econômica. Compreendeu-se que a perspectiva coletiva de incorporação das categorias profissionais nos espaços sindicais de luta geral da classe trabalhadora, apresentada e defendida pela CUT - Central Única dos Trabalhadores, permaneceu inconclusa, não sendo sustentada em seu desdobramento sócio-histórico no Brasil, como também pela categoria profissional no estado do Paraná. Este estudo é resultado de dissertação de mestrado apresentada ao Programa de Pós-Graduação em Serviço Social da Universidade Estadual do Oeste do Paraná - UNIOESTE, Campus de Toledo/PR.

Saat ini Indonesia terus berupaya untuk memodernisasi alutsista yang dimiliki. Begitu pula dengan alutsista milik TNI Angkatan Laut. Berbagai bentuk ancaman di perbatasan wilayah laut Indonesia dengan Negara lain tidak dapat kita hindari. Industri pertahanan dihadapkan kepada tujuan untuk mewujudkan pemerataan pembangunan industri ke seluruh wilayah NKRI guna memperkuat dan memperkokoh ketahanan nasional. Namun faktanya Negara kita belum mampu bersaing dengan negara lain dari segi alutsista, hal ini dikarenakan beberapa alutsista masih pemerintah beli dari luar. Sehingga perlu dilakukan evaluasi mengapa industri pertahanan di Indonesia belum bisa memenuhi kebutuhan alutsista pada pasar domestik dan belum mampu bersaing secara internasional, serta belum bisa mendukung pertumbuhan ekonomi nasional. Pada penelitian ini peneliti menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan teknik analisa deskriptif dan literature review. Sumber data penelitian artikel yang ditulis didapatkan melalui sumber beragam, meliputi buku, jurnal dan berita. Hasil penelitian artikel yang ditulis oleh peneliti menunjukkan bahwa agar mencapai kemandirian industri pertahanan yang utama adalah dimulai dengan peran pemerintah dan kementerian atau Lembaga terkait karena Industri Pertahanan Nasional sangat berpengaruh dalam membangun alat utama sistem senjata TNI Angkatan Laut guna mendukung tercapainya keamanan batas wilayah laut Indonesia.

O estudo visa analisar a percepção de pais/cuidadores participantes do ‘Programa Cresça com seu Filho/Criança Feliz’ sobre o desenvolvimento da linguagem na primeiríssima infância. Realizada em Fortaleza/CE. A pesquisa quantitativa descritiva envolveu 22 pais/cuidadores, cadastrados no programa, por meio de questionários aplicados em visitas domiciliares. A maioria relatou momentos de diálogo e brincadeiras, destacando períodos de lazer e socialização. Entretanto, evidenciou-se uma limitação na prática de leitura para as crianças. Quanto à Fonoaudiologia, metade dos participantes associa essa área predominantemente à fala/linguagem. Os resultados apontam para uma interação positiva, mas revelam lacunas na prática de leitura e conhecimento parcial sobre a atuação fonoaudiológica, focando principalmente na fala/linguagem.

Analisar o que há de publicações científicas sobre a escala EQ-5D-5L que avalia a QV em pacientes Diabetes Mellitus tipo 2. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa construída a partir do cruzamento dos seguintes descritores em Ciências da Saúde (DeCS/MeSH): “Diabetes Mellitus tipo 2”; “Qualidade de vida”; “Impacto”; “Satisfação pessoal” e seus correspondentes em inglês “Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus”, “Quality of life”, “Impact”, “Personal satisfaction”. Os termos foram associados por intermédio dos indicadores booleanos “e” ou “and”. A coleta de dados ocorreu durante o período de setembro a outubro de 2023. Manuscritos publicados no período de 2006 a 2023, que consistiram em estudos quantitativos redigidos, exclusivamente, em inglês, foram meticulosamente examinados. Essa análise englobou oito investigações que convergiram para a conclusão de que pacientes diagnosticados com DM2 apresentam uma QV comprometida. Um aspecto notável ressaltado pelos estudos é a disparidade existente entre homens e mulheres afetados pela DM2, visto que as mulheres experimentam uma redução particularmente significativa na QV. Esse fenômeno foi quantificado por meio da utilização da escala EQ-5D-5L. Esses resultados sublinham a importância de abordagens diferenciadas e personalizadas para ambos os sexos no gerenciamento e no suporte a pacientes com DM2. Explorar as diversas dimensões da QV em pacientes com DM2 transcende um mero desafio; representa um avanço significativo para a equipe multiprofissional, enfatizando a importância de uma abordagem coletiva. Essa perspectiva expandida possibilita uma compreensão mais abrangente das necessidades e dos impactos na vida dos pacientes, fomentando uma atuação mais integrada e eficaz por parte dos profissionais de saúde.

Analisar a cobertura vacinal em menores de um ano no estado de Pernambuco. Estudo ecológico, quantitativo, com análise e gerenciamento de dados espaço-temporais da cobertura vacinal de três imunizantes em menores de um ano no estado de Pernambuco. O panorama temporal da vacinação infantil no estado indica que, entre os anos de 2012 e 2021, foram registradas quedas bruscas na vacinação para os três imunizantes (BCG, Poliomielite e Rotavírus humano). A reintrodução de doenças erradicadas (sarampo e poliomielite), bem como a pandemia de Covid-19, acentuaram as quedas na CV infantil no Brasil, registradas desde 2015. Nesse sentido, torna-se primordial para o SUS promover o acesso equitativo da população aos serviços primários à saúde. Isto é, apesar de bem-sucedidas, as vacinas não dispensam a continuidade de outras ações em saúde, especialmente as medidas de prevenção e promoção realizadas na Atenção Primária.
