Financial Forecast Optimization with Ensemble Models and Error Analysis
Authors: Hari Purwidiantoro Moch , Aini Afifah Nur , Agustin Tinuk
Published: February 2025

This study proposes an error mitigation model applied to the financial sector in higher education, aiming to improve the prediction accuracy in a linear regression model used to monitor and manage campus finances. By analyzing the error distribution of the original model, an additional model is developed to reduce the impact of errors on identified sensitive areas. These two models are then combined into one ensemble model, which is able to reduce the standard residual error (RSE) by up to 7%. The use of this ensemble model has proven effective in improving the accuracy of the results compared to a single model. A case study using university financial data, including parameters such as operating costs, revenues, and budget allocations, shows that error mitigation can provide significant improvements in campus financial management, especially in terms of budget planning and expenditure prediction. This study opens up opportunities for wider application in the higher education sector that requires more accurate and efficient financial management
LOOK ALIKE-SOUND ALIKE PREDICTION AS A TOOL FOR PATIENT SAFETY
Authors: Anggiratih Endang
Published: February 2025

Report from the WHO that one of the highest causes of medication errors is Look Alike – Sound Alike (LASA) drugs, leading to errors in receiving information about the drugs, which of course will affect patient safety. Efforts to reduce medication errors have been widely implemented, such as conducting medication training, managing medications, and storing and labeling medications. However, all of that leads to human error, so the utilization of technology is needed to address this issue. The technology expected to help reduce medication errors is the utilization of artificial intelligence (AI). AI is designed for automation processes and systems that can learn independently, allowing the causes of medication errors such as LASA to be learned by the system and predicted automatically. Deep learning is a part of AI that works by providing solutions accurately and automatically. The Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) algorithm is one of the deep learning methods that has been proven accurate in predictions based on previous research studies. In this study, LASA predictions were made using RNN with the aim of serving as an aid to reduce medication errors, thereby ensuring patient safety. The accuracy achieved is 99% for training and 81% for testing.

Authors: Suryanto Suryanto , Andriyani Widyastuti
Published: February 2025

In this study, we conducted a comprehensive sentiment analysis of users on the social media platform X concerning the viral controversy surrounding the KasKus account known as “Fufufafa.” This issue attracted widespread attention and sparked varied reactions within the online community. To gain insights into public opinion on the topic, we utilized the Support Vector Machine (SVM) method, a widely recognized machine learning algorithm for classification tasks. The data for this research was gathered from various posts, comments, and public discussions on platform X, which were pre-processed to filter out irrelevant information, such as spam, unrelated topics, and non-informative content. After cleaning the data, user sentiments were categorized into three primary classes: positive, negative, and neutral. The SVM model was then trained and tested using a labeled dataset to accurately predict user sentiments based on the textual content of their interactions.

Two types of youth migration in the south of Russia are characterized: educational and labor. The analysis of the results of regional and federal sociological studies on various aspects of interregional and local mobility is carried out. Conclusions are drawn about the trends and some properties of the migration process in the conditions of modern Russian reality; the practical and theoretical significance of the conclusions is determined.
The Motif of the Assistant in Kalmyk Fairy Tales for the Plot “Stepmother and Stepdaughter”
Authors:   Kalmyk Scientific Center of the RAS, Goryaeva Baira B.
Published: February 2025

Introduction. Fairy tales on the relationship between a stepmother and a stepdaughter are widely distributed internationally and are represented by several plot types of the Aarne-Thompson index. The universal plot acquires its own characteristics at the level of a motif. Results. The analysis of the texts of Kalmyk fairy tales on the plot of “Stepmother and stepdaughter” showed that the motif of the magical assistant is plot-forming. A cow appears as a wonderful helper of an orphan in Kalmyk fairy tales. The cow acts as the patroness of a girl doomed to orphan hood and a hard life. V. Y. Propp notes that in a number of fairy tale versions, this cow is nothing more than the girl’s deceased birth mother. In fairy tales, the stepmother forces the orphan to graze cows, gives her difficult assignments. Based on the material of various oral traditions, it can be noted that a wonderful cow helps a stepdaughter to perform the tasks of a stepmother. In Kalmyk fairy tales there is no motif of the difficult task of the stepmother, but it should be noted that the wonderful cow, in addition to the function of an assistant, also acquires the function of a donor after her death, providing food and outfits. In Kalmyk fairy tales in addition to the wonderful cow, there is also a donor who puts the heroine to the test. The old woman and the woman in the considered fairy tales, according to V. Ya. Propp, are assistants, thanks to whom the transfiguration of the heroine (T) takes place. According to the functions of the actors V. Ya. Propp, the woman who stuck the sun and moon on her cheeks, and the old woman on whose head fruits grow, also belong to the category of assistants, but with the functions of a donor who tests the heroine before transforming her (in the above texts, endowing with beauty, outfits and jewelry). Along with the cow, they can be attributed to mythological assistants. It should be noted that in Kalmyk fairy tales on the plot of “Stepmother and Stepdaughter”, the orphan’s assistants are also people: childless old people and the heroine’s husband himself. It can be noted as a feature that in Kalmyk fairy tales based on the plot “Stepmother and Stepdaughter”, the motif of the assistant is realized on two levels: mythological, when an animal and wonderful donors help, and profane, when childless old men and the heroine’s husband come to her aid.

Published: February 2025

The article analyses the resource availability of the Russian university teachers in the conditions of managerialism policy implementation. Managerialism requires from the teaching community active professional activity on the widest range of employment. It is conditioned by the assertion of the values of inter-university competition, implemented through the tools of commercialization of science and education. In this competitive opposition, the amount of the resources available to university teachers is crucial. Our empirical research has shown that the teaching community does not have such quantity and quality of the resources that teachers are equally successful in carrying out all types of professional activities. Since ‘professional failure’ in managerialism is equated with bankruptcy, in order to prevent it, universities choose strategies that reduce the quality standards of scientific and educational work. The maximum negative mani­festation of this strategy is the imitation of professional activity, which, in accordance with the position of the majority of respondents, determines at this stage the main interactions of social actors in the field of science. In a broader context, the negative effects of managerialist policy are manifested, firstly, in the reduction of the resource potential of the teachers, since any forms of imitation destroy or prevent the formation of the professional culture, and secondly, in the deterioration of the conditions of the personnel training for the national economy, since there is a direct link between the quality of the teaching community and the quality of the professional training. All this already in the near future will contribute to further strengthening of the asymmetry between the Centre and Russian regions.
Medical care in rural areas of the Republic of Kalmykia: problems of sectoral asymmetry in the region
Authors:   Kalmyk Scientific Centre of the RAS, Badmaeva Nogan V.
Published: February 2025

The article analyzes the problems of medical care in rural areas of the Republic of Kalmykia. The purpose of the article is to study key aspects of the quality of medical care in rural areas, including accessibility, waiting conditions, the attitude of medical staff and the level of patient satisfaction. Materials and methods. To assess the number of medical workers, statistical data provided by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Kalmykia at the request of the Kalmyk Scientific Center of the RAS were analyzed. To study the quality of medical care in rural areas, a sociological survey of rural residents in 13 districts of the Republic of Kalmykia was conducted. A total of 580 respondents were interviewed in rural areas in April, May, and July 2024. The interviews with the heads of rural municipalities were also conducted (N=20). Results. The study showed that the problem of the access to qualified medical care is one of the factors of the regional asymmetry, since in urban areas the problem of the access to medical care is not so acute. The analysis of the statistical information showed the existing asymmetry in the distribution of the doctors by age groups in all regions of the republic. The quality of medical care in rural areas remains one of the main challenges for the Russian healthcare system. The problems related to the availability of the medical facilities, the lack of qualified personnel and the state of the infrastructure continue to be relevant and require immediate solutions. Solving these problems is a factor in reducing inequalities in the health of the citizens living in different types of settlements.
Peter the Great’s Decrees and Letters to Khan Ayuka as Sources on the History of Russian-Kalmyk Relations
Authors:   Kalmyk Scientific Center of the RAS, Tepkeev Vladimir T. , Kamandzhaev Narma A. ,   Kalmyk Scientific Center of the RAS
Published: February 2025

Introduction. Studying the history of any nation is unthinkable without an appropriate analysis of historical sources. The funds of the Russian State Archive of Ancient Acts and the Archive of the Foreign Policy of the Russian Empire contain a significant number of documents from the era of Peter the Great. We are particularly interested in materials related to the history of Russian-Kalmyk relations, specifically decrees, diplomas, and letters from top officials of the Russian state addressed to Kalmyk owners. This article will consider such types of sources as decrees and letters of Peter the Great to the Kalmyk Khan Ayuka. The purpose of the study is to introduce new sources on the history of Russian-Kalmyk relations of the 18th century into scientific circulation. The main materials for this work were the decrees and charters totaling 16 units, which relate to the period from 1700 to 1722 and belong to the funds of two archives: the Russian State Archive of Ancient Acts and the Archive of the Foreign Policy of the Russian Empire. Results. The article provides a brief source-based analysis and publishes the texts of the letters and decrees of Peter the Great to Kalmyk Khan Ayuka. Conclusions. The royal letters and decrees of Peter the Great to Kalmyk Khan Ayuka were an integral part of the exchange of information between the central government and the Kalmyk Khanate, as well as the main way of transmitting royal orders to Khan Ayuka, which, of course, emphasizes the high importance of these sources in the study of the history of Russian-Kalmyk relations at the beginning of the 18th century. The main content of the decrees were various royal orders while the letters were characterized by multitasking: along with the imperative function, they contained both answers to the letters from the Kalmyk Khan, as well as various notifications and information. The studied documents clearly show that the general logical structure of the decrees and charters is quite similar, while both the initial and final forms of the latter have undergone some changes over the time, mainly in their simplification.
La mecánica clásica de las políticas públicas: la administración del tráfico de Armas México-EE.UU. y de la desaparición de personas
Authors: Ceballos Soria Miguel Ángel
Published: February 2025

Este artículo presenta un modelo de análisis de las políticas públicas desde una perspectiva biopolítica. Se muestra cómo las políticas públicas, representadas como un ciclo circular compuesto por distintas fases, son utilizadas principalmente para administrar los problemas sociales, más allá de solucionarlos. Para ello, se recurre a la metáfora como herramienta metodológica, introduciendo el concepto de fuerza centrípeta, tomado de la física clásica, para ilustrar cómo las políticas públicas atraen los problemas sociales hacia su ciclo, manteniéndolos dentro de este círculo de gestión permanente. Se presentan dos ejemplos: la administración de las armas en la relación México-Estados Unidos y la desaparición de personas en México.
Subjetividad del muerto viviente: El fenómeno de desaparición de personas en México y la crisis de fentanilo en los E.U.A.

Published: February 2025

Banana weevil, Cosmopolites sordidus (Germar), and striped weevil, Metamasius hemipterus (Linnaeus), are pests of global importance in banana cultivation that are traditionally controlled using synthetic insecticides. Plastic traps offer an alternative method to managing these weevils. However, the effectiveness of artisanal traps, considering color, odor, position, and their influence on trapping efficacy, has been largely neglected. Here, we assessed artisanal plastic traps for capturing banana weevils, testing two trap colors (yellow and brown), two positions (horizontal and vertical), and five types of attractants: pineapple; pineapple combined with molasses; pseudostem; pseudostem combined with molasses; and the pheromone Cosmolure in Ecuadorian banana fields. Under controlled conditions, trap color and position did not significantly influence the preference for C. sordidus and M. hemipterus (P<0.05). Field bioassays revealed significant differences in the capture of C. sordidus based on trap position and odor attractants. While trap position did not affect the capture of M. hemipterus, the choice of attractant influenced insect capture rates. Cosmolure was the most effective attractant for capturing banana weevils, whereas pineapple baits attracted the highest number of stripped weevils. Over 10 days, the number of captured insects decreased for both weevils across different attractants. Our findings highlight the potential of artisanal plastic traps as a valuable tool for the integrated pest management (IPM) of C. sordidus and M. hemipterus in banana plantations.

Poultry farming is a relevant industry in Brazil, providing essential animal protein. However, such commercial activity faces significant challenges from bacterial-based diseases, which can impact both animal health and quality product. In this context, this study aimed to identify bacterial strains and evaluate their antimicrobial resistance profiles in poultry farms in southern Tocantins, Brazil. Samples were collected from different stages of poultry production, and the antimicrobial susceptibilities were assessed through antibiogram tests, where bacterial isolates were exposed to 17 antibiotics commonly used in bacterial infection treatment. Bacterial isolates were identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and phylogenetic analysis was used to group them based on genetic similarities. Five isolates were identified: Glutamicibacter creatinolyticus (IGA1), Enterococcus gallinarum (IGA2), Enterobacter mori (IGA3), Lysinibacillus fusiformis (IGA4), and Enterococcus faecalis (IGA5). Antibiotic susceptibility tests revealed significant variations in resistance profiles, with some isolates exhibiting multidrug-resistant (MDR) phenotypes. IGA1 was classified as multidrug-resistant, showing resistance to imipenem, meropenem, ceftazidime, trimethoprim, and doxycycline. IGA2 exhibited resistance to β-lactam antibiotics, including ceftazidime, cefepime, doxycycline, imipenem, meropenem, piperacillin-tazobactam, and tetracycline. IGA3 was resistant to aztreonam and trimethoprim, while IGA4 showed resistance to ceftazidime and cefepime but sensitivity to ciprofloxacin and linezolid. IGA5 did not show resistance to any of the tested antimicrobials. Collectively, our findings highlight bacterial diversity and antibiotic resistance in poultry fams, reinforcing the need for continuous monitoring and effective antimicrobial control strategies to promote animal health, ensure food safety, and prevent the transmission of multidrug-resistant bacteria to humans.
Experience of using geotechnical monitoring under permafrost conditions (the example of a public building in Salekhard, RF)
Authors: Novikov Yu.A.
Published: February 2025

Taking into account the specifics of permafrost and soil conditions, it is important to pay attention to the role of the initial temperature regime. Its change, caused by a combination of various factors, can affect the further operation of the facility. The author presents the results of a survey, annual observation of the vertical movements' development and thermophysical ones of a public building on permafrost soils. Geotechnical equipment location diagrams, final graphs of vertical displacements and temperature measurements are given. The reasons for increasing irreversible deformities causing the accident risk of the investigated object were determined. An opinion on the need of creating a unified geotechnical monitoring database, which would allow responding to changing operating conditions of buildings and structures on permafrost soils quickly in order to implement appropriate forecast solutions and avoid emergencies was expressed

Este libro se publica con motivo de la exposición homónima cuyo propósito es difundir la obra de Thaddaeus Haenke (Chribská, 1761-Cochabamba, 1816), un naturalista originario de Bohemia que formó parte de la expedición Malaspina-Bustamante a finales del siglo XVIII y permaneció en la América hispana hasta el final de su vida. Su intensa actividad científica verdaderamente multidisciplinar: sobresalió especialmente en el ámbito de la botánica, pero se dedicó también al estudio de la zoología, geología, medicina y la astronomía, entre otras áreas del saber, caracterizándose por un interés científico enciclopédico. Además, este joven ilustrado se interesó por las culturas indígenas, la arquitectura prehispánica y la música. Lamentablemente, su valiosa obra está insuficientemente estudiada y es poco conocida entre el gran público.
Esta exposición reúne casi una treintena de obras de Haenke nunca expuestas hasta ahora, entre las que se incluyen dibujos, una partitura y cuadernos de campo conservados en el Archivo del Real Jardín Botánico-CSIC y en el Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales. Junto a ellas, tres piezas del Museo Naval de Madrid contribuyen a contextualizar su producción en el marco de las expediciones científicas del siglo XVIII y de los avances de las ciencias náuticas y cartográficas. Esta publicación reúne el catálogo de obras expuestas y un conjunto de estudios que profundizan en la figura de Haenke, su relevancia y método de trabajo, y sobre los contextos en que se desarrolló. Con ello se pretende difundir las aportaciones de Thaddaeus Haenke y de la expedición Malaspina-Bustamante en que desarrolló buena parte de su actividad, y contribuir a comprender mejor las formas en que el conocimiento científico era construido en la época de la Ilustración.
Der intergenerationelle Turnus im irdischen Raum
Authors: Fritsch Matthias
Published: February 2025

Dieser Artikel bietet eine Antwort auf massive ökologische Destabilisierungen, indem er die vielversprechenden Vorschläge, Generationengerechtigkeit zu verstehen als ein abwechselndes An-der-Reihe-Sein mit der Erde verbindet mit den Entwürfen einer geokinetischen Sicht der Erde und der Idee einer zweiten Kopernikanischen Revolution. Die Argumentation erfolgt in vier Schritten. Erstens argumentiere ich, dass die jüngsten Aufforderungen, auf das Anthropozän zu reagieren, indem wir die gelebte menschliche Zeit in die geologische Zeit einbetten, durch die Zeit der Generationen und somit durch die Ethik der aufeinander folgenden menschlichen Generationen ergänzt werden muss. Um dann die intergenerationelle Gerechtigkeit zu konzeptualisieren, gehe ich daraufhin auf den Vorschlag ein, dass sich die menschlichen Generationen mit der Erde abwechseln, also jede Generation eine Art Turnus innehat. Im dritten Abschnitt wird gezeigt, dass die Erde jedoch kein externes, austauschbares Objekt ist, das wir abwechselnd benutzen (wie es z. B. bei einem Fahrrad der Fall wäre). Ebenso ist sie kein Objekt, das wir wahlweise nutzen oder nicht nutzen können, sondern sie ist konstitutiv dafür, dass Generationen überhaupt entstehen und sich abwechseln können. In diesem konstitutiven Sinne wechseln nicht nur ‚wir‘ uns mit der Erde ab, sondern, so könnte man sagen, sie wechselt auch uns ab. Um diesen Gedanken weiter zu spezifizieren, diskutiere ich abschließend die sogenannte ‚zweite Kopernikanische Revolution‘, nach der sich die Erde nicht nur um die Sonne bewegt, sondern auch in ihrem Inneren in Bewegung ist und diese geokinetischen Prozesse die menschlichen Generationen mitkonstituieren. In diesem Sinne fordern uns die Umweltdestabilisierungen auf, die Zeit als immer schon intergenerationell verfasst und den Raum als gegenkopernikanisch zu verstehen.

Das Buch „Ökonomie, Demokratie und liberaler Sozialismus“ von Hannes Kuch verbindet auf äußerst anregende Weise Rawlsianische Gerechtigkeitstheorie mit Kritischer Theorie, um für einen Marktsozialismus mit stark wirtschaftsdemokratischer Ausrichtung zu argumentieren. Diese Einleitung gibt einen Überblick über die Artikel in diesem Schwerpunkt.
Unfreiheit ohne Leiden
Authors: Schumann Frank
Published: February 2025

In Axel Honneths Theorie sozialer Freiheit kann Freiheit im vollen Sinne nur in und durch Partizipation an sozialen Kooperationszusammenhängen verwirklicht werden. Eine Freiheitstheorie müsse daher, so Honneth in Abgrenzung zu liberalen und neokantianischen Konzeptionen, ausgehend von den in modernen Gesellschaften institutionalisierten Kooperationsbeziehungen formuliert werden. Zugleich erlaube es ein solches Vorgehen, Störungen in sozialen Kooperationsbeziehungen als Einschränkungen von Freiheit zu rekonstruieren und entsprechend zu kritisieren. Honneth geht im Unterschied zu seiner früheren Anerkennungstheorie inzwischen jedoch davon aus, dass derartige Funktionsstörungen keine individuellen Leiderfahrungen mehr hervorbringen müssen. Der Beitrag argumentiert hingegen dafür, dass Einschränkungen sozialer Freiheit notwendig zumindest schwache Formen sozialen Leidens nach sich ziehen und greift dafür auf einen von Honneth liegen gelassenen Argumentationsstrang zurück: Um unterscheiden zu können, ob ihre Absichten in der sozialen Kooperation zwanglos oder doch nur zwangsförmig realisiert werden können, müssen Individuen in der Lage sein, ihre Bedürfnisse und Interessen ebenso zwanglos zu deuten. Der Beitrag entwickelt zwei in Honneths Ansatz angedeutete, aber nicht ausgearbeitete Möglichkeiten, jene Selbstdeutungsprozesse zu erhellen: Einerseits Parsons Theorie der Wertverinnerlichung, andererseits Honneths Anerkennungstheorie, welche in der Freiheitstheorie lediglich einen abgeschwächten Status innehat. Da sich die Fähigkeiten zur Selbstdeutung in beiden Ansätzen auf dem Fundament psychologisch tief ansetzender Sozialisationsprozesse ausbilden, muss auch davon ausgegangen werden, dass die von Honneth beschriebenen sozialen Pathologien und Fehlentwicklungen das Verständnis der eigenen Bedürfnisse und Interessen auf eine Weise verzerren, die von den Individuen als leidvoll erfahren wird. Vor diesem Hintergrund lassen sich drei verschiedene Fälle unterscheiden: Unmittelbare Ausschlusserfahrungen, vorübergehende Blockaden der Fähigkeiten zur Selbstdeutung sowie Störungen in der Ausbildung jener Fähigkeiten. Allerdings werden sowohl die Verinnerlichungs- als auch die Anerkennungstheorie den konzeptionellen Prämissen der Theorie sozialer Freiheit nicht vollständig gerecht, sodass es, wie abschließend festgehalten wird, für eine detaillierte Ausarbeitung des Zusammenhangs weiterer konzeptioneller Arbeit bedarf.
Einleitung: Jenseits des Individuums und über die Zeit hinweg
Authors: Ellerich-Groppe Niklas , Koesling Dominik
Published: February 2025

Sei es der angemessene Umgang mit der Klimakrise, die Zukunft der sozialen Sicherungssysteme oder das richtige Handeln angesichts eines kolonialen Erbes – in jüngster Zeit wird eine Vielzahl von Themen vermehrt in öffentlichen, aber auch akademischen Debatten aufgegriffen, die ethische Fragen der Generationenbeziehungen auf die Tagesordnung setzen. Innerhalb der Ethik überwiegen jedoch bis heute Ansätze, die durch eine Fokussierung auf das Individuum sowie die Gegenwart gekennzeichnet sind und dementsprechend nur bedingt geeignet sind, derlei Frage- und Problemstellungen zu adressieren. An dieser Stelle setzt der vorliegende Schwerpunkt Intergenerationelle Perspektiven in der Ethik an, dessen inhaltliche Diskussion der nachstehende Einleitungsbeitrag eröffnen soll. Dazu wird zunächst die Debatte rund um Intergenerationalität im ethischen Diskurs skizzenhaft umrissen. Darauf folgt ein Impuls zum Generationenbegriff, der in der gesamten Diskussion eine zentrale Stellung einnimmt. Im Anschluss werden das Ziel und die Anlage des Schwerpunkts beleuchtet, bevor abschließend ein kurzer Überblick über die sechs Schwerpunktbeiträge gegeben wird.

Published: February 2025

Objectives

To examine retrospectively the short-term effects of a compliance-free skeletal Class III corrector (NET3-corrector) compared to rapid maxillary expansion-facemask (RME-FM).

Material and Methods

Records of 20 skeletal Class III patients treated with the NET3-corrector were compared to 20 patients treated with RME-FM, mean age: 11.14 ± 1.17 years and 11.14 ± 2.06, respectively. The NET3-corrector consisted of a hybrid-expander, a lower lingual arch, and a modified PowerScope spring. The RME-FM group received an RME-facemask combination. T2 records were collected when an overjet of at least 2 mm was achieved. Differences between two timepoints within groups and differences between groups were tested using paired samples t-test and independent samples t-test, respectively (P < .05 was considered statistically significant).

Results

The treatment time was 10.5 months with NET3-corrector and 12 months with RME-FM. The NET3-corrector was well tolerated by patients and the Class III malocclusion was corrected in all patients in both groups. The overall maxillary skeletal change was greater with the NET3-corrector, with an additional 2° advancement at SNA (P < .001). Significant differences in maxillary incisor angulation were observed in the RME-FM group in comparison to NET3 (−0.37 ± 3.31 vs 4.96 ± 3.80; P < .001). The mandibular molars tipped significantly more distally in the NET3 group (7.3° more; P < .001).

Conclusions

The compliance-free tooth-bone-borne NET3-corrector, is effective in correcting Class III malocclusion with improved maxillary skeletal outcomes compared to RME-FM in the short term. These results need to be evaluated in the long term with a randomized sample.

Objective: We aimed to determine if diabetes complications - such as kidney disease that may impair acid-base buffering capacity - independently predict the risk of subsequent diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Research Design and Methods: We accessed previously-collected 34-year data from the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial and Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications Study through public data access. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models with time-varying exposures and covariates were used to examine the associations of macrovascular disease, and early and late stages of neuropathy, nephropathy, and retinopathy with subsequent DKA occurrence as the outcome. Results: Of 1441 participants, 297 experienced 488 DKA events over follow-up. Major adverse cardiovascular events [hazard ratio (HR) 3.16, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.57-6.35, p=0.001] and late-stage neuropathy, which comprised serious foot ulcer or amputation, (HR 1.59, 95% CI 1.04-2.45, p=0.03) were independently associated with higher DKA risk. Higher risk was also associated with shorter diabetes duration (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.64-0.91, p=0.002), female sex (HR 2.04, 95% CI 1.56-2.67, p<0.001), current insulin pump use (HR 3.04, 95% CI 2.29-4.02, p<0.001), higher time-updated HbA1c (HR for additional 1% 1.39, 95% CI 1.29-1.50, p<0.001), and higher current insulin dose (HR for 1 additional unit/kg/day 2.32, 95% CI 1.62-3.33, p<0.001). Conclusion: A major cardiovascular event, foot ulcer or amputation confers the greatest risk of future DKA independent of previously-recognized risk factors, implying a need to target patients with these events for DKA prevention interventions such as self-management skills for metabolic control, management of depression, and DKA education.
Evolution of Chia Seeds from Ancient Times to Modern SuperFood
Authors: RIM Almoselhy , A Usmani , MA Siddiqui
Published: February 2025

Chia seeds (Salvia hispanica L.) have transitioned from a staple food in ancient Mesoamerican cultures to a globally recognized
super food. This article explores their evolution, starting with their origins in Central and South America and their significant
role in Aztec and Mayan civilizations, where they held nutritional, medicinal, and symbolic importance. After a period of
decline during the colonial period, chia seeds have seen resurgence from the late 1900s due to their considerable health uses
alongside their incredible versatility. Chia seeds contain high amounts of dietary fiber (34-40%), promoting digestive health
and satiety with 16-20% plant protein with all essential amino acids, and about 27-33% fats rich in omega-3 fatty acids,
and antioxidants, which help in promoting heart health, controlling blood sugar levels, managing body weight, and reducing
inflammation. Moreover, they have found newer forms and uses such as chia butter and oil which introduces nutritious
options to modern lifestyles and diets. The production of chia has been rising exponentially, especially in Australia, Mexico
and Argentina. However, issues such as farming methods, environmental issues and uneven supply in developing countries
still exist. Further opportunities exist in using chia seeds to address food shortages and improve agriculture. A new area that
is being researched is promoting health and nutrition using chia seeds

Nowadays, there is a tendency among the younger generation to be less familiar with regional cultures in Indonesia, particularly the culture of statues, which are a heritage from our ancestors, such as the statues in East Kalimantan. Introducing these statues to the younger generation can help them understand the function of the statues and the appropriate behavior when encountering sacred statues. The objective of this research is to design an application equipped with augmented reality features and to evaluate the application to help the younger generation learn about and recognize the traditional statues of East Kalimantan. The analysis of the current situation was used to meet the needs in developing an application that displays 3D models along with information on the statues using augmented reality. This research employed a quantitative method involving 60 respondents. Each respondent completed a pre-test and a post-test, and the test results were compared using the paired sample t-test. The test results indicated a difference in the number of correct answers, with an average of 23 respondents on the pre-test and 58 respondents on the post-test. The results were statistically significant, with a value of 0.000. The evaluation was carried out through a questionnaire to determine the level of user satisfaction with the application. Based on the test and evaluation results, it was proven that the augmented reality application designed can enhance public knowledge about and recognition of the traditional statues of East Kalimantan.

Observations reveal several issues in education, including reliance on conventional teaching methods, educators' preference for competitive and individualistic approaches over collaborative ones, and limited opportunities for students to develop communication skills. This review aims to explore the importance of implementing the STEAM learning model, the underlying causes of educational challenges, and strategies to enhance students' 5C skills. The study adopts a Systematic Literature Review approach using the PRISMA method. Articles were retrieved from the Scopus database with the assistance of the Publish or Perish application. A total of 14 relevant and eligible articles were critically reviewed and analyzed to meet the research objectives. The findings demonstrate that the STEAM learning model is an innovative educational approach that effectively instils 5C skills—critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, communication, and confidence—in students. The integration of STEAM with other learning models provides students with relevant and practical learning experiences to address diverse educational needs. Implementing STEAM prepares future generations to face global challenges with comprehensive and relevant skill sets.

Elementary education in Indonesia has undergone significant reforms with the introduction of the K13 Curriculum and the Merdeka Curriculum. These changes aim to enhance the quality of education and equip students with 21st-century skills. This study seeks to analyze the differences in the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum and the K13 Curriculum through a systematic literature review. The research employed the SLR (Systematic Literature Review) method using Google Scholar as the primary database. The literature reviewed was limited to the period from 2019 to 2023, using a three-stage keyword search process. The first stage resulted in 3,340 documents with the keyword "K13 Curriculum." The second stage yielded 492 documents with the keywords "Merdeka Curriculum" and the addition of "AND" between these terms. In the third stage, adding the keyword "in elementary school" and the term "AND" between the earlier keywords narrowed the results to 225 documents. These documents were further filtered based on inclusion criteria, resulting in 7 articles for detailed analysis. The analysis revealed significant differences in focus and approach between the two curricula. The K13 Curriculum emphasizes the development of affective, cognitive, and psychomotor competencies through a scientific approach, while the Merdeka Curriculum prioritizes the Pancasila Student Profile through P5 (Project-Based Learning) and differentiated instruction. These changes pose challenges for educators, particularly regarding understanding and skill acquisition in implementing the curriculum.

The rapid proliferation of social media (SM) has revolutionized information sharing and communication, yet its potential in academic libraries remains underexplored. This study aims to investigate the usages and applications of social media platforms in the Dhaka University Library (DUL) to facilitate student engagement and resource access. The research adopts a quantitative approach, distributing 200 printed questionnaires to DUL students for data collection. A total of 177 usable responses were analyzed, yielding an 88.5% response rate. Data were processed using IBM SPSS to derive insights. Findings reveal that most users actively share information through platforms such as Facebook, Google+, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Academia. While students acknowledge the benefits of SM in enhancing library services, there is limited awareness of its potential drawbacks. Recommendations were developed for students and library authorities to optimize SM usage, focusing on fostering sustainable research development and distance learning. The study highlights implications for policymakers, social media developers, and educators in promoting ethical and meaningful online interactions. These findings underscore the transformative role of SM in academic libraries and its potential to enrich the learning experience in a digital age.

The change of curriculum to an independent curriculum was motivated by the backwardness of learning. In its implementation, the independent curriculum is not based on the concept set by the government. Teaching modules need to be developed so that they can be used to facilitate teachers and students. This research is a development research (R&D). This study aims to develop a self-directed learning (SDL) teaching module and test the feasibility of the SDL teaching module. In developing the teaching module, the researcher used the 4D research model. Data collection used documentation, observation, unstructured interviews and questionnaires. Data analysis used quantitative descriptive analysis techniques. Based on the research that has been done, the researcher produced an SDL teaching module. The modified 4D model development process developed the process of developing the teaching module. The developed teaching module was categorized as very suitable for use in learning and has been proven theoretically and empirically. The SDL teaching module that has been developed can facilitate teachers and students in implementing learning that is in line with the concept of the independent curriculum.
