The use of UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) technology or drones in the monitoring of vineyards and orchards offers multiple benefits, improving the monitoring, management, and productivity of crops. The main goal of this study was to implement a cost-effective integrated UAV technology that includes the necessary hardware and software elements for analyzing the health and growth of agricultural crops in general, with a particular focus on vineyards and orchards. Based on the analysis, agronomists, experts in the field, or ordinary farmers can implement appropriate management measures, such as adjusting the irrigation process, applying fertilizers or phytosanitary treatments, and potentially using shading for the crops. Continuous crop monitoring allows for the evaluation of the effectiveness of the implemented measures and the adjustment of the crop management strategy. Another important objective was the use of high-precision sensors that can be easily attached to a commercial civil drone. The developed system should have a compact size and low energy consumption and even allow for IoT connectivity. To collect and record data from these sensors, a program written in Python is used, containing specific blocks for data acquisition from each sensor to facilitate the monitoring of environmental factors or energy consumption. Experimental tests conducted in the orchard space at the Faculty of Biotechnical Systems Engineering of the National University of Science and Technology Politehnica in Bucharest, Romania, led to the creation of maps showing the health status of the crops based on vegetation indices. The tests demonstrated that UAVs could rapidly cover large areas and collect detailed data without requiring extensive human resources or costly equipment. The results of the analysis of the drone's flight performance underscore the considerable potential of UAV technologies in revolutionizing precision agriculture, particularly in orchards, providing farmers with powerful tools to improve the sustainability and productivity of their crops.

Para escribir estos relatos me basé en mi experiencias personal en el barrio más hermoso del mundo, el barrio Galán de la comuna doce de la ciudad de Ibagué. Si no me creen que es un barrio divino, vean el video de la canción Una historia diferente de Santiago Cruz. Si Santiago no los duerme con su canto soporífero en el video, podrán ver unas calles llenas de color, de vida, de sonrisas desdentadas de niños y viejas felices. Unas calles que fueron escenarios de partidos de fútbol, de prestamistas gota a gota cobrando el pellejo al deudor, de ajustes de cuentas de un señor que mató al violador de su esposa, de otra esposa que descubrió que su marido pensionado de la Policía era homosexual.

Abordamos en este trabajo la poética de la novela gráfica infantil. Para ello, empezamos por definir un concepto general de ficción dentro del cual participarían, junto a otras manifestaciones, las que llamamos literaturas gráficas. Dentro de estas, abordamos el cómic como medio capaz de alojar diferentes géneros, uno de los cuales sería la novela gráfica infantil. Esta es caracterizada en nuestra investigación por una triple adscripción: a un medio, que sería el cómic; a un género, que sería la novela gráfica; y a una categoría de literatura, que sería la LIJ. Establecidos los fundamentos de la novela gráfica infantil, proponemos el análisis de dos ejemplos recientes de dicho género: por un lado, el encuentro con el otro que nos propone Memet, una novela gráfica infantil a cargo de la guionista Noémie Marsily y la dibujante Isabella Cieli, publicada en Bélgica en 2019 y traducida al español en 2022; y, por otro, el tema de la huida de la muerte en A toda pastilla, una novela gráfica infantil de Josephine Mark publicada en Alemania en 2022 y traducida al español en 2023.

Educare a nuovi immaginari e a nuovi linguaggi. I libri per l’infanzia come veicoli di contronarrazioni di genere
Authors: Biemmi Irene
Published: December 2024

Promoting gender education pathways requires embracing the notion that girls and boys, young women and young men, are competent social actors who do not passively absorb the influences of their social context but are instead capable of reworking, deconstructing, and critically analyzing them. This is contingent on providing them with the necessary educational and cultural tools to undertake this sophisticated process. When learners become co-protagonists and co-constructors of cultural and cognitive processes, new possibilities for cultural change and renewal emerge. In the context of gender education, this means that individuals can continuously renegotiate socially established gender expectations, with each person’s transformation contributing to shifting boundaries and opening new spaces for reimagining norms. Children’s literature is a valuable and inexhaustible resource for identity formation, social initiation, and the development of individual and collective imagination. It thus represents a powerful tool for educating new generations of girls and boys to transcend gender boundaries and to position themselves as active participants in a cultural transformation that is already underway, but which must be continually foregrounded and encouraged.

The remarkable success of Bangladesh in harnessing information and communication technology for the health sector has garnered widespread acclaim, captivating global attention and admiration. Previously fragmented data systems are now unified within a centralized repository, facilitating seamless data exchange across health information systems. This integration eliminates redundancy, enhances monitoring capabilities, tracks progress on health-related SDG indicators, and empowers evidence-based decision-making. Fifteen years ago, Bangladesh’s healthcare system operated on basic paper-based documentation. Today, however, Bangladesh is the world's leading user of the District Health Information System Version 2 (DHIS 2). The Health Information System (HIS) has become a crucial tool, enabling the country to monitor emerging health risks and measure progress toward ambitious health objectives, including the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). An effective HIS fills critical knowledge gaps for public health experts, offering indispensable insights that drive improvements in overall health outcomes. Yet, the effectiveness of an HIS is shaped by far more than data alone; it is influenced by robust administrative and organizational frameworks and requires a supportive environment that fosters sound policy implementation. Equally essential are key human elements—skilled and knowledgeable health workers, personal motivation, strong leadership, and collaboration among various stakeholders. This overview aims to delve into some of the fundamental challenges facing DHIS 2 implementation in Bangladesh, exploring ways to refine and elevate DHIS 2 to meet the health needs of the nation.

Published: December 2024

Background: Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) includes various abnormal cell growths from the placental trophoblast, such as hydatidiform mole, invasive mole, choriocarcinoma, and placental site trophoblastic tumor (PSTT). This study aimed to determine if post-evacuation serum hCG levels and their ratio during the first two weeks could predict persistent gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) in complete molar pregnancies. Aim of the study: The aim of the study was to evaluate the relationship between post-evacuation serum β-hCG levels and the occurrence of persistent gestational trophoblastic neoplasia in patients at a tertiary care center. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at the Outpatient Department of Gynecological Oncology, BSMMU, Dhaka, in 2021, involving 50 patients with histopathologically confirmed molar pregnancy. Post-evacuation β-hCG levels were monitored to assess the risk of persistent gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (PGTN). Data were analyzed using SPSS version 20 with t-tests, chi-square tests, ROC curves, and logistic regression, setting p<0.05 as significant. Results: GTN-positive patients were younger, had lower incomes, and were underweight. They showed a higher prevalence of grape-like vesicle expulsion, thyrotoxic symptoms, prior molar pregnancies, and family history of molar pregnancy. β-hCG levels >100,000 mIU/mL were found in all GTN-positive cases. Log-transformed β-hCG levels from weeks 5 to 8 were higher in GTN-positive cases, with week 8 β-hCG providing 97.7% sensitivity, 100% specificity, and an AUC of 0.997 for GTN prediction. Conclusion: Elevated post-evacuation β-hCG levels and specific clinical factors are strong predictors of persistent gestational trophoblastic neoplasia in hydatidiform mole, highlighting the importance of early detection.

Published: December 2024

The prevalence of undernutrition of pregnant women remains high in Indonesia, and also deficiency of micronutrition such as iron, folic acid, or vitamin B which affected low level of hemoglobin. The insufficient hemoglobin levels in erythrocytes could disturb delivery oxygen needed to the tissues and fetus as well. The occurrence of anemia in pregnant women varies depending on diet, infections, lifestyle, environment, and socioeconomic factors. This study aims to describe the erythrocyte morphology of pregnant women in Kupang City, located in a dry island region. The research involved 24 pregnant women living in Kupang City, using a cross-sectional observational method. The results of erythrocyte morphology from peripheral blood smears showed that 12 subjects (50%) had microcytic hypochromic anemia and 1 subject (4.2%) had microcytic normochromic anemia. This indicates that, based on erythrocyte morphology, nutritional deficiencies and the possibility of chronic inflammation among pregnant women are still very high. Geographical background could be a predisposing factor for this anemia. Continuous education about adequate and balanced nutrition for pregnant women and further investigations to determine the etiology of inflammation are greatly needed.

Published: December 2024

Sprout cultivation is one of the practical and economical methods to obtain a type of food rich in nutrients. However, the success of sprout cultivation requires proper control of soil moisture and water pH in the cultivation environment. Watering begins when the moisture of the mung bean plant reaches the specified parameters with a soil moisture of 67 and a pH value of + 9. This tool aims to make manual work easier to automate, a benefit in watering sprout plants. This tool uses a water ph sensor and a soil moisture sensor or soil moisture sensor that functions as a soil moisture detector that will send commands to the Arduino uno to turn on the relay so that the water pump can automatically water according to the needs of the soil. The creation of this final project is carried out by designing, making and implementing system components which include Arduino uno as a controller, relay to turn on the water pump and turn off the water pump, LCD (linquit Crystal Display) to display the soil moisture value and water ph value. The results of the research value prove that the tools to be made can function properly and can be developed as expected.
Design and Build of Air Conditioners with Peltier Modules and PID Controls
Authors: Mahesa Sangga Bhuwana  , Rasyida Shabihah Zukro Aini
Published: December 2024

Air conditioners are among the technologies that have been increasingly common, as time has gone on, from personal comfort to room comfort. A multi-story building is one location that requires air conditioning. This is because the structure's air pressure will rise until a certain level, making the temperature too low, so air conditioning is necessary to maintain a comfortable temperature. Similarly, in tropical areas where the temperature exceeds what is reasonably comfortable. However, the current air conditioner technology has the potential to harm the environment. Since Freon, which is used in it, can pass through the ozone layer. Eventually, global warming will happen and the world will get hotter. The SHT21 sensor is the kind of sensor that will be utilized in this final project since it has strong and steady chemical resistance over time and uses the I2C interface. This type of sensor is also capable of being utilized as a calibrated ambient temperature sensor, with a digital output form already comprised. This sensor will enable us to create a PID system with feedback that monitors the temperature produced by the Peltier module along with reacting to controlled PID by delivering PWM into the driver, then subsequently transmits the signal to the Peltier module for monitoring. When the duty cycle is 100 percent or the PWM value is set to 255, the Peltier module generates a 12-volt voltage at its best. When duty cycle 0 percent or PWM value 0 is selected, the module stops functioning. It is anticipated that this system will advance toward a Freon-free air conditioning system.

Published: December 2024

O tema das transferências de pacientes tem ganhado crescente relevância tanto no cenário nacional quanto internacional, especialmente com a multiplicação de estudos que destacam a necessidade de melhorias na transição dos cuidados de saúde. A evidência científica mostra que uma comunicação eficaz entre os profissionais de saúde pode reduzir redundâncias, economizar tempo, aumentar a segurança do paciente e melhorar a satisfação da equipe.
Essa comunicação eficaz pode ser alcançada por meio do uso de ferramentas estruturadas que orientam a transferência de informações. Nesse contexto, a técnica ISBAR (Identificação, Situação, Background, Avaliação e Recomendações) tem sido frequentemente recomendada para garantir uma comunicação clara e precisa entre as equipes de saúde.
O objetivo desta intervenção é promover a segurança do paciente durante a transição de cuidados de saúde, implementando a técnica ISBAR em um serviço de internamento cirúrgico de um hospital no norte de Portugal.
Futuros estudos são essenciais para avaliar a eficácia da técnica ISBAR no contexto português, especialmente considerando que a norma de orientação clínica 001/2017 já recomenda a sua utilização nos serviços de saúde.

To cope with these challenges, food delivery couriers utilise several individual strategies such as WhatsApp support groups and networks to help them with job-related challenges. The article concludes with several interventions to policy change to improve the working conditions of food delivery couriers.
Media and the Case of State Capture in South Africa: How Independent Outlets Aided Whistleblowers in Communicating their Messages
Authors: Radulovic Ugljesa
Published: December 2024

State capture, which is when private actors influence the state through illegal and non-transparent forms, significantly impacted South Africa’s socio-political landscape during Jacob Zuma’s presidency. This transpired largely because of an unethical nexus that formed around Zuma, those in government loyal to him, and the powerful business family – the Guptas. These revelations came to the fore because of independent media, which focused on exposing the illicit relationships driving state capture. Independent media was reliant on whistleblowers to communicate a complete narrative, which resulted in a mutually beneficial collaboration between independent media and whistleblowers. A qualitative research approach employing two methods was utilised to examine this collaboration. The dominant source of information arose from semi-structured interviews conducted with whistleblowers and independent media outlet affiliates. This data was further supplemented with document analysis. This study found that independent media played a crucial role in providing support to state capture whistleblowers. Support occurred in three forms, namely: defensive; emotional; and offensive support. Defensive support entailed legal, financial and security aid. Emotional support was provided in the form of informal counselling. Offensive support entailed using media exposure to make the whistleblowers’ narratives public, as well as mediating between whistleblowers and official commissions of inquiry.

La presente investigación cuestiona si la educación socioemocional es un marco teórico-práctico necesario de introducir en escenarios de cuidados de niños y niñas (NN) que viven con sus madres dentro de prisión. Este sector de la población se encuentra particularmente expuesto a situaciones de violencia, exclusión social, discriminación, y pobreza; lo que constituye un entorno adverso para la etapa inicial de crianza y la protección a sus derechos conforme a los principios que estipula la Convención de los Derechos del Niño. El objetivo general plantea analizar los datos obtenidos en el diagnóstico estadístico acerca de las maternidades e infancias con referentes de crianza en prisión del Estado de México, para identificar datos que apunten a la necesidad de atender el desarrollo de la dimensión socioafectiva en los escenarios de cuidados de NN que habitan con sus madres en los centros penitenciarios. Los hallazgos de la investigación muestran datos que confirman la necesidad de ofrecer atención socioemocional desde la etapa inicial de crianza, durante el proceso de externar a los niños y niñas que cumplen los tres años de edad, e incluso desde la etapa prenatal.

La Cátedra de investigación “Infancias con referentes de crianza en prisión, Infancia es destino” es una iniciativa entre el Poder Judicial del Estado de México y la Universidad Autónoma del Estado de México que busca reflexionar sobre los derechos humanos de niñas y niños que viven dentro de las prisiones; así como niñas, niños y adolescentes que viven fuera y enfrentan la condición de tener al padre o a la madre en prisión.
Desde la investigación que genera, esta cátedra pretende aportar a la incidencia para la protección de los derechos humanos de las infancias, por lo que observa la experiencia de maternidad y paternidad, los escenarios de cuidados y crianza en historias de vida vinculadas al sistema penitenciario. La complejidad del tema ha llevado a generar una línea de trabajo multidisciplinar al considerar voces distintas desde la academia, en áreas como derecho, psicología, trabajo social, salud, nutrición, arquitectura, diseño, ciencias políticas y sociales, entre otras; lo que favorece la mirada integral, pero también interinstitucional e intersectorial porque se articula como escenario de diálogo entre la esfera gubernamental, la sociedad civil organizada y la academia, lo que posibilita no sólo la reflexión al tema, sino la posibilidad de que cada sector se enriquezca de las demás visiones.

A garantia do direito das crianças à cidade pressupõe assegurar a esta parcela da população tanto oportunidades de fruição cotidiana de espaços livres de qualidade quanto de participação em processos de planejamento, desenho urbano e projeto destes espaços. Este estudo exploratório objetivou testar o potencial de uma variedade de ferramentas–entrevistas não estruturadas, mapeamento voluntariado VGI (Volunteered Geographic Information), desenho-elicitação, foto-elicitação e Análise de Multicritérios por Pesos de Evidência–na potencialização da participação infantil em processos de transformação urbana. Crianças, entre 6 e 12 anos (incompletos), que fazem uso rotineiro dos espaços livres que estruturam a região central de Belo Horizonte participaram desta pesquisa. As ferramentas testadas se mostraram suficientemente robustas para instrumentalizar processos dialógicos que visem promover a mobilidade infantil independente a partir da transformação de espaços abertos com e para as crianças.

Cataract is one of the reversible blindness in this world. Cataracts, a leading cause of blindness, result from various factors beyond aging. While senile cataracts are common in the elderly, their diverse forms suggest multiple causes. Childhood cataracts are a leading cause of blindness in underdeveloped nations, particularly India, where they account for 7.4-15.3% of all blindness cases. Risk factors include smoking, UV-B radiation, diabetes, steroid use, heavy alcohol consumption, electric shock, and genetic conditions like Down syndrome and hereditary cataracts. Metabolic disorders such as galactosemia, infections like TORCH, and chronic diseases including chronic kidney disease, atopic dermatitis, hepatitis C, Wilson’s disease, celiac disease, systemic lupus erythematosus, Fabry disease, and Marfan syndrome also contribute. Myopia, hypertension, and trauma, particularly in children, increase risk. Notably, high-dose vitamin C supplements may elevate cataract risk, unlike lower doses in multivitamins. Understanding these factors emphasizes the need for targeted prevention and early intervention to manage cataract risk and reduce vision impairment globally. In this review article we mainly find different types of factors that cause cataract.

Islamic boarding schools in Indonesia have classic problems related to the health of students, one of which is common in Islamic boarding schools and identical to the lives of students, is scabies. This community service activity was carried out at the As Syafiiyah Islamic boarding school to provide solutions to the problems of the As Syafiiyah Islamic boarding school community by providing education, training as well and mentoring Islamic boarding school health cadres in preventing scabies. This activity is carried out by providing education, training, and assistance to students and poskestren cadres about "self-care" in preventing scabies. Evaluation of this activity was carried out using pre and post-test scores. It was found that there was an increase in the post-test score compared to the pre-test. Before the self-care training was given, it was found that 20% of the students were still not clean in maintaining their hygiene, but after the self-care training was given, it was found that none (0%) of the students were clean and 58.5% of their hygiene was good. It is concluded that self-care training can improve the ability of students to prevent scabies through personal hygiene skills which include: clothing hygiene, skin hygiene, hand and nail hygiene, genital hygiene, towel hygiene, and cleanliness of prayer tools. The behavior of preventing scabies through maintaining personal hygiene needs to be stated in the Pesantren regulations and socialized to the Pesantren community and requires support from the Kyai or Pesantren leaders, including Bu Nyai Pesantren so that it can be implemented properly.

The incidence of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest worldwide is increasing every year, and Indonesia is one of the countries where the exact incidence of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is not yet known. The main cause of cardiac arrest is cardiovascular disease. Deaths in Indonesia due to cardiovascular diseases amount to 7.4 million (42.3%), with 6.7 million (38.3%) caused by Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) and 6.7 million (38.3%) caused by stroke. The incidence rate of heart disease in West Kalimantan is 7.89%, with hypertension incidence in individuals over 18 years old at 8.16% and in Kubu Raya Regency at 5.51%. The incidence of stroke in West Kalimantan is 0.96%. This has led to an increasing incidence of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The purpose of this community service is to provide knowledge about basic life support for cardiac arrest victims at SMAN 1 Sungai Ambawang.

Authors: Ni Gusti Ayu Made Nia Rahayu
Published: December 2024

Arbiter dan mediator memegang peran penting dalam sistem penyelesaian sengketa alternatif (ADR) di Indonesia, berfungsi untuk membantu pihak yang bersengketa mencapai kesepakatan tanpa melalui jalur pengadilan formal. Arbiter memiliki kewenangan untuk membuat keputusan yang mengikat, sementara mediator bertugas sebagai fasilitator dalam mencari solusi yang disepakati bersama. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji pengaturan honorarium bagi arbiter dan mediator dalam konteks hukum Indonesia, khususnya setelah diterbitkannya Perma No. 01 Tahun 2016 yang memperkenalkan berbagai peraturan baru terkait biaya mediasi dan peran mediator. Selain itu, penelitian ini menyoroti ketimpangan yang ada dalam pengaturan honorarium kedua profesi tersebut, baik dalam arbitrase maupun mediasi. Pengaturan honorarium yang adil dan transparan diharapkan dapat meningkatkan profesionalisme serta keadilan bagi para pihak yang terlibat dalam sengketa. Studi ini juga memberikan rekomendasi agar pengaturan honorarium arbiter dan mediator dapat disesuaikan dengan kompleksitas kasus dan kesepakatan yang adil antara pihak yang bersengketa. Diharapkan, penelitian ini dapat memberikan kontribusi terhadap kebijakan yang lebih efektif dan adil terkait pengaturan honorarium profesi arbiter dan mediator di Indonesia.
Komedia rzymska na polskiej scenie
Authors: Skwara Ewa
Published: December 2024

Artykuł analizuje zachowane przekłady sztuk dwóch rzymskich autorów, Plauta i Terencjusza, w kontekście ich adaptacji w polskich teatrach na przestrzeni ostatnich stu lat. Przynosi informacje na temat liczby polskich premier komedii Plauta w XX i XXI wieku, ale stara się także wskazać, że o doborze repertuaru decydowały przekłady i zastosowane w nich strategie. Materiału badawczego do analizy dostarczają programy teatralne, często omawiające rolę przekładu, a także przywołujące wypowiedzi badaczy i tłumaczy dramatów antycznych. Znacząca jest również nieobecność Plauta na scenie w latach 1979–2009 oraz kompletny brak zainteresowania dla twórczości Terencjusza, który w wieku XX i XXI nie pojawił się nigdy na deskach profesjonalnego teatru. Niewątpliwie duże znaczenie odegrały tutaj przekłady: ich anachroniczność lub niekomunikatywność, ale także zmiany obyczajowe XXI wieku (gender studies, #metoo).
