Published: November 2024

The presence of certain parasites in Clarias species consumed in Nigeria has continued to pose some challenges to fish production in many parts of Nigeria. The present study was aimed at assessing the sex-related distribution of parasites in gills and gastrointestinal tracks of Clarias species consumed in Nigeria. Two hundred and sixty (260) Clarias species obtained from River Taraba, Taraba state was examined for the presence of gill and digestive tract parasites. One hundred and forty (140) of them were Clarias gariepinus and one hundred and twenty (120) were Clarias anguillaris. Analysis was carried out using standard parasitological techniques. The gills of the fish were removed and observed under a stereo microscope for parasites. The intestines were cut opened and viewed under the stereo microscope section-by-section. Parasites seen were recovered, fixed, and preserved in 5% formalin before they were later processed. Two gill parasites, Macrogyrodactylus sp. (a monogenean) and Ergasilus sarsi (a copepod) were recovered. The relationship between sex and gill parasite infestation was significant (p<0.05). Three parasite species namely Tetracampos ciliotheca and Monobothroides woodland (cestodes) and Procamallanus laeviconchus (nematode) were recovered from the digestive tract of both Clarias species in the river. Relationships between the sex of fish and digestive tract infestation were also significant (p<0.05).

Published: November 2024

Higher education institutions are expected to provide quality and relevant education at present. For this reason, a study that aims to determine the performance of their graduates in the licensure examinations offered by the states must be conducted. This study will conduct a correlational analysis of the licensure examination for Arellano University teachers of 2018 education graduates. This study utilized the correlation research method. Documentary analysis was used as a technique for gathering the data. Six (6) BEED graduates and nineteen (19) BSED graduates were selected for this study. Their rating in the licensure examination for teachers and academic performance in courses such as professional education, course assessment 1, course assessment 2, and practice teaching were correlated. BSED graduates performed better in the 2018 Licensure Examination for Teachers than BEED graduates. BEED graduates perform below the passing rank in all the components of LET. The study’s findings revealed that both the BEED and BSED graduates performed below the passing rating required by PRC in the professional education component of the test. The academic performance of the BEED graduate did not redound and translate to their successful performance in the Licensure Examination for Teachers. On the other hand, the academic performance of the BEED graduates was confirmed in the results of the LET. The BSED graduates performed better, as revealed in their academic performance than their BEED counterparts. BEED graduates’ academic performance in course assessment 2 concurred with the result of their LET performance in professional education, while their academic performance in the three subjects’ professional education, course assessment 1, and practice teaching did not redound to their performance in the LET. The BSED graduates’ academic performance reflected their performance in the LET. With these findings, it was recommended that both programs be revisited and thoroughly reviewed in terms of instruction and assessment to ensure that these are aligned with the competencies tested in the LET. Intensive preparation and training of the BEED students must also be done. Lastly, the severe participation of the students in intensive training in preparation for the LET must be ensured to help them become more prepared and confident to take the test in the future.

Published: November 2024

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is an uncommon adenocarcinoma of the bile duct epithelial. There is no standard regimen yet for patients with adequate performance status. Therefore, effective agents are necessary. Recently, protein-bound polysaccharide K (PSK) has shown a great anticancer potential. L. polychrous is a Thai local edible mushroom that traditionally used as a folk medicine for treatments of fever and inflammation. This study aimed to identify the PSK from hot water extract of L. polychrous and examine the anticancer activity against a CCA cell line KKU-213A. The PSK were quantified by ELISA and characterized using SDS-PAGE, glycoprotein staining kit, and western blot analysis. The antioxidant activity was assessed by DPPH assay. Cytotoxic effect against KKU-213A was assessed by MTT assay. Apoptosis and cell cycle were analyzed by flow cytometry. The highest PSK levels were found in L. polychrous extract compared with the other 14 mushroom species which purified PSK is approximately 70 kDa of glycoprotein. The hot water extract of L. polychrous showed strong antioxidant activity. The cell viability of KKU-213A cells was significantly inhibited with L. polychrous extract at an IC50 value of 3.31 ± 0.09 mg/mL. In addition, the induction of cell cycle arrest at S and G2/M phases was observed together with induction of apoptosis, and mitochondrial membrane dysfunction in concentration-dependent manner. Hence the L. polychrous extract is the great source of PSK with strong antioxidant activity and exhibits anti-CCA effects through cell cycle arrest and apoptotic induction.
HIGHLIGHTS

Lentinus polychrous, a Thai local edible mushroom, is the good source of PSK and powerful antioxidant activity.
The hot water extract of L. polychrous suppresses cell viability, induces apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, and mitochondrial dysfunction in CCA cell line.
The anticancer effects of L. polychrous extract against CCA cells makes it a potential agent for CCA treatment.

Published: November 2024

Flooding is a pervasive natural disaster that significantly impacts agriculture, infrastructure, and communities, particularly in rural and agricultural regions. Traditional methods of flood assessment and compensation are often manual, time-intensive, and prone to inaccuracies, resulting in delayed aid and inequitable resource distribution. With advancements in technology, satellite imagery and artificial intelligence (AI) provide new opportunities for real-time flood mapping and automated disaster response.
This project proposes a Real-Time Flood Mapping and Compensation System using the Attention U-Net deep learning model. Satellite imagery is analysed to detect and segment flood-affected regions with high precision. The Attention U-Net architecture enhances segmentation accuracy by focusing on the most relevant regions in the images while ignoring irrelevant or noisy areas, such as clouds or non-flooded landscapes. The system integrates geospatial data on land boundaries to assess flood severity for individual properties, enabling fair and data-driven compensation for affected landowners.
This project holds significant potential for transforming flood disaster management by reducing response times, fostering transparency, and empowering affected communities to recover more effectively. The integration of advanced AI and geospatial technologies marks a critical step toward mitigating the impacts of natural disasters in a rapidly changing climate
Matemática divertida, explorando por qué no debería ser vista como aburrida
Authors: Caballero Vigil Lorenzo
Published: November 2024

No se necesita de tanta argumentación para demostrar que, en su mayoría, a los estudiantes no les gusta ni siquiera un poco la matemática; lo que influencia y predispone, negativamente, hacia cualquier actividad que se desarrolle en esta asignatura. Esto obliga a todo buen docente a valerse de diferentes estrategias que le permitan tener al estudiante presente (cuerpo y mente), en el aula de clases. Una opción para lograr este objetivo es la incorporación de juegos, ya sea, diseñados directamente para apoyar las clases de matemática o adaptados para tal fin. Por lo que, en este artículo, exponemos los resultados de una investigación documental en la que se define a qué se le llama juego en matemática, la importancia y beneficios que tiene la incorporación de juegos en la clase de matemática y se sugieren tres juegos para reforzar la suma y resta de números enteros y los conceptos de múltiplo y divisores de un número.  Todo esto con el fin de contribuir en la erradicación de la predisposición que tienen los estudiantes hacia la matemática y demostrar que se puede aprender de una forma divertida.

Biomass, Capitalism, and Hegemony
Authors: Daviron Benoit
Published: November 2024

How did Europeans achieve global dominance and continue to satisfy their ever-growing needs? How do we explain the effects this has on the rest of the world?

In his magnum opus, published here in English for the first time as an open access book, world-renowned critical development scholar Benoit Daviron blends Braudelian history and a food systems approach to show how biomass--as the metabolism of societies and as a source of matter and energy--explains key historical phases of Western capitalist hegemony and the transitions between them. By examining various uses of biomass, technical production and extraction methods, forms of labour mobilization, and exchange systems, Daviron provides startling new insights into capitalist development from the 16th century to the present.

This book is essential reading for students and scholars of critical approaches to global development, and for anyone interested in how capitalist domination came to be and how the bio-meatabolic imbalances it created might be redressed.

Authors: Esteves Diana , Vieira Ana , Duarte Nuno
Published: November 2024

roduction: Body image (BI) is a critical aspect for women with breast cancer, as it impacts both appearance and functionality. Despite the importance of physiotherapy in improving BI, studies on women's perceptions of its effects on BI are limited. Objective: To evaluate the self-perception of post-surgical breast cancer patients regarding the effects of physiotherapy on their BI and its relationship with functionality, anxiety, and depression. Methods: A pre-experimental study involving 35 women who underwent breast cancer surgery, assessed before and after 10-12 physiotherapy sessions using the Body Image Scale, Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand, and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scales. Results: A greater negative impact on BI was observed in younger women (p=0.027) and those with higher education (p=0.029), which correlated with greater upper limb dysfunction (p<0.001), increased anxiety (p<0.001), and depression (p=0.002). After the intervention, there was a significant improvement in BI (p<0.001). Women with higher education showed greater body acceptance (p=0.045) and upper limb functionality (p<0.001). Most participants reported that physiotherapy contributed to an improvement in their BI. Conclusions: This intervention program demonstrated that physiotherapy plays a crucial role in the recovery of BI in post-surgical breast cancer women, highlighting its importance in the rehabilitation process and in promoting psychological and functional well-being.

Autonome Überwachung des geometrischen Aufbaus von Werkzeugen für das Seilschleifen
Authors: Rahner Björn-Holger
Published: November 2024

Das Seilschleifen, auch Seilsägen genannt, ist ein Trennverfahren, das in der Bauindustrie, im Rückbau und der Natursteinindustrie eingesetzt wird. Ein Nachteil des Verfahrens ist die fehlende Prozesssicherheit, da bspw. das Aufschieben von Schleifsegmenten nicht prozessparallel erfasst werden kann. Dies kann zu einem Versagen des Werkzeugverbunds (Seilriss) führen, der die Produktivität mindert und Maschinen- sowie lebensbedrohliche Personenschäden verursachen kann. Um diesem Defizit zu begegnen, wird eine Methode zur prozessparallelen Erfassung und Überwachung des Werkzeugaufbaus vorgestellt und prototypisch realisiert. Ohne Notwendigkeit von Expertenwissen und ohne Beeinflussung der Produktivität gewährleistet die eingeführte Bewertungsmethode erstmalig Prozesssicherheit. Darüber hinaus lässt sich die autonom arbeitende Prozessüberwachung auf alle marktüblichen Seilwerkzeuge und Maschinen (mobil, stationär) übertragen. Ferner wird eine neuartige Methode zur Überwachung von Schlupf an der Antriebsrolle eingeführt.
Robuste Auslegung zur Minderung von Lateralschwingungen in Tiefbohrsträngen
Authors: Gorelik Ilja
Published: November 2024

Bohrstrangschwingungen führen in der Regel zu einer verkürzten Lebensdauer der Bohrstrangkomponenten und der darin enthaltenen elektronischen Bauteile. Insbesondere die Vermeidung von Lateralschwingungen ist von hoher wirtschaftlicher Relevanz, da die damit einhergehenden hohen Biegewechselbeanspruchungen und Stoßbelastungen das größte Schadenspotential für die Bohrstrangkomponenten bergen. Erschwert wird die messtechnische und modellbasierte Vorhersage von Biegeschwingungen durch den Umstand, dass diese stark lokalisiert auftreten bzw. von unterschiedlichen Prozessparametern und Randbedingungen, die wiederum Schwankungen unterworfen sein können, abhängig sind. Basierend auf der Transfermatrixmethode wird im Rahmen der vorliegenden Arbeit ein recheneffizientes strukturdynamisches Modell entwickelt. Am Beispiel einer Bohrstranggeometrie wird das freie und erzwungene Schwingungsverhalten unter Annahme von zufällig verteilten Parameterwerten untersucht. Des Weiteren werden erstmalig Methoden der globalen Sensitivitätsanalyse im Kontext der Bohrstrangdynamik angewandt und es wird dargelegt, wie diese für eine robuste modellbasierte Auslegung genutzt werden können, um eine Minderung von Lateralschwingungen zu erzielen.
Selbst parametrierbare positionsgeberlose Regelung für den Grunddrehzahlbereich einer permanentmagneterregten Synchronmaschine
Authors: Lindemann Georg
Published: November 2024

Die geberlose Regelung von permanentmagneterregten Synchronmaschinen (PMSM) kann Bauraum und Kosten reduzieren, da kein Rotorlagegeber benötigt wird. Diese Regelung ist jedoch von Maschinenparametern und empirischen Einstellungen abhängig. In dieser Arbeit wird die geberlose Drehzahlregelung von PMSM im Grunddrehzahlbereich in Verbindung mit einem Auto-Commissioning zur selbstständigen Inbetriebnahme untersucht. Ein Verfahren zur Rotorlageschätzung auf Basis der magnetischen Anisotropie wird verbessert und dessen Vorteile auf ein EMK-basiertes Verfahren für höhere Drehzahlen übertragen. Beide Verfahren werden zu einem kombiniert, das vom Stillstand bis zu mittleren Drehzahlen funktioniert. Ein Auto-Commissioning ermöglicht die Inbetriebnahme ohne Rotorlagegeber.
Individualisierung orthopädischer Implantate durch algorithmisches Entwerfen am Beispiel einer Hüftschaftprothese
Authors: Müller Patrick
Published: November 2024

In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird ein umfassender Ansatz zur Individualisierung von orthopädischen Implantaten hinsichtlich der Form sowie der Topologie präsentiert. Im Fokus steht dabei die Entwicklung einer generischen Prozesskette innerhalb eines Knowledge-Based Engineering (KBE)-Systems, das in einer rechnerunterstützten Entwicklungsumgebung umgesetzt wird. Diese Prozesskette umfasst alle Schritte von der Datenerfassung bis zur Optimierung der individualisierten Implantatform und -topologie. Dafür werden Methoden und Werkzeuge, wie das algorithmische Entwerfen und numerische Optimierungen, angewendet, um individuelle Varianten zu entwerfen, die sowohl die Passgenauigkeit durch eine optimierte Form verbessern als auch den Effekt des Stress-Shieldings durch lokal angepasste Gitterstrukturen minimieren. Die Anwendbarkeit des methodischen Vorgehens und der Entwicklungsumgebung für die Individualisierung der Form und Topologie der orthopädischen Implantate erfolgt durch eine Fallstudie. Die Validierung der individualisierten Form erfolgt durch eine klinische Implantation einer Endo-Exo-Prothese in einen Hundekadaver und die der individualisierten Topologie durch Vergleiche mit klinisch validierten mikroskopischen Finite-Element (micro-FE) Modellen.
Automatisierte Inspektion thermischer Beschichtungsschäden auf Basis von maschinellem Lernen
Authors: Hedrich Kolja
Published: November 2024

Die Instandhaltung und Inspektion teil-montierter Mantelstromflugtriebwerke umfasst aufgrund des beengten Bauraums häufig den Einsatz von Videoendoskopen zur bildhaften Erfassung und Untersuchung von Schäden. Gegenwärtig erfolgt sowohl die Bedienung des Endoskops als auch die abschließende Abschätzung und Quantifizierung von Schäden meistens durch geschultes Fachpersonal. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wird für einen solchen Inspektionsprozess an thermischen Beschichtungsflächen bzw. Anstreifbelägen eine Automatisierungslösungzur objektiven und präzisen Quantifizierung entwickelt. Diese Beschichtungen befinden sich unter anderem auf Rotoren des Hochdruckkompressors und weisen dort häufig flächige Ablösungen der Keramikbeschichtung auf, welche durch 2D-Videoendoskope bildhaft erfasst und anschließend als relative Schadensfläche quantifiziert werden sollen. Das Ziel der Automatisierungslösung ist daher die Verarbeitung von Inspektionsvideos zur Generierung einer gesamten Abbildung der zu untersuchenden Fläche und einer anschließenden Segmentierung von Schadensflächen, um das resultierende Schadensmaß objektiv und präzise zu berechnen. Diese Arbeit leistet somit einen wissenschaftlichen Beitrag zur Quantifizierung von Beschichtungsschäden in Flugtriebwerken und stellt eine funktionale Basis für ein industrielles Assistenzsystem im Inspektionsprozess dar.

"Cigánsky román" Josefa Sekeru Děti z hliněné vesnice a problematika literárneho kontextu
Authors: Szabó Miloslav
Published: November 2024

This article reflects on the issue of literary context, particularly on the increasing efforts to reconceptualize it in recent years. Using the example of Josef Sekera’s novel Děti z hliněné vesnice (1952), set among Slovak Roma, it progressively reconstructs the contexts of social history, exoticism and the reception of the work in Communist Czechoslovakia and of its German translation in East Germany. In doing so, it starts out from the assumption that different levels of contextualization can help explain the sujet tensions that Sekera’s novel fails to aesthetically alleviate in any productive way, even though it does to some extent get beyond the schematism of socialist realism.

Extent to Which Domestic Savings can be Activated to Achieve Economic Development in Iraq
Authors: Kamel Mayada , Almayyahi Aymen
Published: November 2024

The current situation of local savings in the Iraqi economy, which is regarded as one of the important pillars of financing economic development, is investigated in this research. The constraints to growth in savings are also explored to understand the feasibility of activating savings in Iraq and the use of savings to solve the financing problems currently faced by the Iraqi economy. In the context of the transition from a comprehensive economy to a liberal economy connected to the global economy, policies and regulations that focus on national interests must be followed to promote economic development. Thus, local sources of financing that can reduce the negative impact of dependence on external borrowing must be sought. Especially in Iraq, many imbalances are apparent in the economic structure; the country’s economy is also highly dependent on oil resources for financing. The conclusions and recommendations of this study focus mainly on the fundamental role played by commercial banks in mobilizing savings and channeling them into productive investment channels, thereby promoting capital accumulation at the macroeconomic level. However, banking services and their role in attracting deposits have not yet reached the expected level. One of the most important recommendations is the need to develop the financial system, which is a key factor in economic development, to encourage and pool local savings, promote savings awareness, and invest them by providing credit facilities for agricultural, industrial and other productive projects.

Abstract. Atmospheric dioxygen (O2) concentration and isotopic composition are closely linked to the carbon cycle through anthropic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and biological processes such as photosynthesis and respiration. The measurement of the isotopic ratio of O2, trapped in ice core bubbles, brings information about past variation in the hydrological cycle at low latitudes, as well as past productivity. Currently, the interpretation of those variations could be drastically improved with a better (i.e., quantitative) knowledge of the oxygen isotopic fractionation that occurs during photosynthesis and respiration processes. This could be achieved, for example, during experiments using closed biological chambers. In order to estimate the isotopic fractionation coefficient with good precision, one of the principal limitations is the need for high-frequency online measurements of isotopic composition of O2, expressed as δ18O of O2 (δ18O(O2)) and O2 concentration. To address this issue, we developed a new instrument, based on the optical-feedback cavity-enhanced absorption spectroscopy (OF-CEAS) technique, enabling high-temporal-resolution and continuous measurements of O2 concentration as well as δ18O(O2), both simultaneously. The minimum Allan deviation occurred between 10 and 20 min, while precision reached 0.002 % for the O2 concentration and 0.06 ‰ for δ18O(O2), which correspond to the optimal integration time and analytical precision before instrumental drift started degrading the measurements. Instrument accuracy was in good agreement with dual-inlet isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS). Measured values were slightly affected by humidity, and we decided to measure δ18O(O2) and O2 concentration after drying the gas. On the other hand, a 1 % increase in O2 concentration increased the δ18O(O2) by 0.53 ‰. To ensure the good quality of O2 concentration and δ18O(O2) measurements we eventually proposed to measure the calibration standard every 20 min.

Abstract. Boreal fire regimes are intensifying because of climate change, and the northern parts of boreal forests are underlain by permafrost. Boreal fires combust vegetation and organic soils, which insulate permafrost, and as such deepen the seasonally thawed active layer and can lead to further carbon emissions to the atmosphere. Current understanding of the environmental drivers of post-fire thaw depth is limited but of critical importance. In addition, mapping thaw depth over fire scars may enable a better understanding of the spatial variability in post-fire responses of permafrost soils. We assessed the environmental drivers of post-fire thaw depth using field data from a fire scar in a larch-dominated forest in the continuous permafrost zone in eastern Siberia. Particularly, summer thaw depth was deeper in burned (mean=127.3 cm, standard deviation (SD) = 27.7 cm) than in unburned (98.1 cm, SD=26.9 cm) landscapes 1 year after the fire, yet the effect of fire was modulated by landscape and vegetation characteristics. We found deeper thaw in well-drained upland, in open and mature larch forest often intermixed with Scots pine, and in high-severity burns. The environmental drivers basal area, vegetation density, and burn depth explained 73.3 % of the measured thaw depth variability at the study sites. In addition, we evaluated the relationships between field-measured thaw depth and several remote sensing proxies. Albedo, the differenced normalized burn ratio (dNBR), and the pre-fire normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) derived from Landsat 8 imagery together explained 66.3 % of the variability in field-measured thaw depth. Moreover, land surface temperature (LST) displayed particularly strong correlations with post-fire thaw depth (r=0.65, p<0.01). Based on these remote sensing proxies and multiple linear regression analysis, we estimated thaw depth over the entire fire scar. Our study reveals some of the governing processes of post-fire thaw depth development and shows the capability of Landsat imagery to estimate post-fire thaw depth at a landscape scale.
A dynamical process-based model for quantifying global agricultural ammonia emissions – AMmonia–CLIMate v1.0 (AMCLIM v1.0) – Part 1: Land module for simulating emissions from synthetic fertilizer use

Abstract. Ammonia (NH3) emissions mainly originate from agricultural practices and can have multiple adverse impacts on the environment. With the substantial increase in synthetic fertilizer use over the past decades, volatilization of NH3 has become a major loss of N applied to land. Since NH3 can be strongly influenced by both environmental conditions and local management practices, a better estimate of NH3 emissions from fertilizer use requires improved understanding of the relevant processes. This study describes a new process-based model, AMmonia–CLIMate (AMCLIM), for quantifying agricultural NH3 emissions. More specifically, the present paper focuses on the development of a module (AMCLIM–Land) that is used for simulating NH3 emissions from synthetic fertilizer use. Other modules, together termed as AMCLIM-Livestock, simulate NH3 emissions from agricultural livestock and are described in Part 2). AMCLIM–Land dynamically models the evolution of N species in soils by incorporating the effects of both environmental factors and management practices to determine the NH3 emissions released from the land to the atmosphere. Based on simulations for 2010, NH3 emissions resulting from the synthetic fertilizer use are estimated at 15.0 Tg N yr−1, accounting for around 17 % of applied fertilizer N. Strong spatial and seasonal variations are found. Higher emissions typically occur in agriculturally intensive countries (such as China, India, Pakistan and the US) and mostly reach the maximum in the summer season. Volatilization rates indicate that hotter environments can result in more N lost due to NH3 emissions and show how other factors including soil moisture and pH can greatly affect volatilization of NH3. The AMCLIM model also allows for estimation of how application techniques and fertilizer type have impacts on the NH3 emissions, pointing to the importance of improving management practices to tackle nutrient loss and of appropriate data gathering to record management practices internationally.

Abstract. Dust storms pose significant risks to health and property, necessitating accurate forecasting for preventive measures. Despite advancements, dust models grapple with uncertainties arising from emission and transport processes. Data assimilation addresses these by integrating observations to rectify model error, enhancing forecast precision. The ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) is a widely used assimilation algorithm that effectively optimize model states, particularly in terms of intensity adjustment. However, the EnKF's efficacy is challenged by position errors between modeled and observed dust features, especially under substantial position errors. This study introduces the valid time shifting ensemble Kalman filter (VTS-EnKF), which combines stochastic EnKF with a valid time shifting mechanism. By recruiting additional ensemble members from neighboring valid times, this method not only accommodates variations in dust load but also explicitly accounts for positional uncertainties. Consequently, the enlarged ensemble better represents both the intensity and positional errors, thereby optimizing the utilization of observational data. The proposed VTS-EnKF was evaluated against two severe dust storm cases from spring 2021, demonstrating that position errors notably deteriorated forecast performance in terms of root mean square error (RMSE) and normalized mean bias (NMB), impeding the EnKF's effective assimilation. Conversely, the VTS-EnKF improved both the analysis and forecast accuracy compared to the conventional EnKF. Additionally, to provide a more rigorous assessment of its performance, experiments were conducted using fewer ensemble members and different time intervals.
