Authors: Widyanti Tuty , Azis Nurul Ni'ma , Nirfah Nirfah
Published: December 2021

Tuberkulosis paru merupakan penyakit infeksi yang disebabkan oleh Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Diagnosis ditegakkan bila ditemukan kuman Mycobacterium tuberculosis pada pemeriksaan mikroskopis, pemeriksaan dahak secara langsung memiliki beberapa kelemahan yaitu masih banyaknya jaringan, lendir yang akan memperbesar volume sampel,sehingga akan memperkecil kemungkinan untuk dapat mengambil sampel yang mengandung kuman Mycobacterium tuberculosi . Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hasil pemeriksaan Mycobacterium tubeculosis pada dahak suspek penderita TB dengan pemeriksaan secara langsung dibandingkan dengan perlakuan homogenisasi. Metode penelitian adalah observasi laboratorik yang bersifat deskriptif. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan secara accidental sampling sebanyak 5 sampel. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa: dari 5 sampel, didapatkan peningkatan hasil positifitas setelah dilakukan homogenisasi pada sampel dahak sewaktu sebanyak 20%, pagi 20%, sewaktu 40%. Didapatkan juga hasil pemeriksaan yang sama baik secara langsung dan setelah homogenisasi sebanyak 60% dahak sewaktu, 80% dahak pagi, dan 20% dahak sewaktu. Namun, ada juga hasil pemeriksaan dahak yang mengalami penurunan positifitas sebanyak 20% pada sampel dahak sewaktu, 0% sampel dahak pagi, dan 40% pada sampel dahak sewaktu.Berdasarkan hasil yang dapat disimpulkan bahwa terdapat perbedaan antara pemeriksaan secara langsung dan  pemeriksaan metode homogenisasi.

Biological and Molecular Evidence for the Existence of Bruchid Ecotypes in the Nigerian Cowpea Ecosystem
Authors: Jackai LEN
Published: December 2021

The oviposition, growth and development of six populations of Callosobruchus maculatus (IT, PH, UM, MD‐1, MD‐2, MD‐3) from different localities in Nigeria were studied on a resistant (TVu 2027) and susceptible (Ife Brown) cowpea cultivar and four cultivars of African yam bean, Progenies obtained by cross‐mating individuals from the different populations were also studied.. Oviposition was highest in the MD insect beetle population and lowest in the UM population. IT and PH populations had the highest adult emergence and shortest development times on the resistant control. Genomic differences among bruchid populations were confirmed by the Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) fingerprinting technique with PH population being the most distant. All progenies with IT as the female parent also had better emergence and shorter development time than their reciprocal crosses or those involving other populations, but this varied with the fitness of the male parent. The UM population averaged <10% adult emergence on TVu 2027 compared to 71.9 % on the susceptible control, but was better adapted to the AYB (66 % emergence) than were other populations. These results suggest possible existence of ecotypes, of this bruchid species in Nigeria with potentially important implications for the development and deployment of resistant cowpea varieties.

Authors: Muita Richard
Published: December 2021

The impacts of increased water levels in Kenyan lakes are a major problem that is affecting communities and their livelihoods. Upsurge in water levels of the Rift Valley Lakes is one of the recent climate extremes witnessed over Eastern Africa where the rises appear to be consistent with the occurrence of enhanced seasonal rains between 2016 and 2020. Considering that many explanations have been provided as possible causes, there is still little empirical evidences. This study aimed at assessing the link between meteorological factors and the rises in lake levels in order to see if these can explain the causes. Further using surface observations potential to predict the water levels was examined. Datasets on rainfall, temperature and water levels from four Lakes in Kenya were used to establish the changes in these variables using statistical methods. Generalized Linear Models were used to predict the water levels in the study lakes. Results indicate that rainfall and temperature as well as other climate drivers has been changing over the last recent years with increased precipitation being consistent with the observed high stands in the Rift Valley lakes. Specifically, the results of the forecasted levels indicate substantial and slight increase for lake levels in Naivasha while the Lake Baringo levels are predicted to rise sharply within the study data periods.

A survey was undertaken to evaluate the biochemical parameters like chlorophyll, carbohydrate, ascorbic acid, APTI of Neem (Azadirachta indica) and Sajina (Moringa oleifera) plants and sample leaves were collected during two different seasons like monsoon of 2019 and winter of 2020, from ten different sites of Purulia town like Nistarini College premises, Deshbandhu Road near Raghabpur more, Station para (near Maheswari lodge), Railway station and surrounding areas, Bus stand to Taxi stand, Gopal More, Zilla School More, Bhatbandh, Goshala More, Bongabari. All of these areas are either in the vicinity of heavily vehicle burdened roads or railway station. Neem (Azadirachta indica) and Sajina (Moringa oleifera) plants were selected as these plants are very commonly found in this area. Carbohydrate in Neem leaves were significantly higher during monsoon at all sites excluding Station Para, Gopal More and Bhatbandh where no significant differences were noticed. Carbohydrate levels were reduced during winter in Nistarini College Premises, Railway Station, Bus Stand to Taxi Stand, Bhatbandh and Goshala More but reverse results were observed during winter in leaves samples collected from Station Para and Zilla School More. Air Pollution Tolerance Index (APTI) indicates the tolerance capacity of plants species to air pollution and can be calculated to categorize sensitive, intermediate and tolerant species. Lowest and highest APTI value for Neem leaves during monsoon were recorded from Gopal More (13.88) and Goshala More (17.84) respectively while during winter season lowest APTI value of same species was observed in Deshbandhu Road (5.96) but highest value was experienced from Zilla School More (20.56). In case of Sajina leaves, during monsoon, maximum APTI was noticed in Nistarini College premises (15.97) and minimum value was recorded from Goshala More (12.72). In winter season lowest APTI was noticed in Bus stand to Taxi stand area (10.12) and highest value was from Station para near Maheswari Lodge (16.59).

Rapidly spreading disease, COVID-19 is classified as the human-to-human transmissionable disease and currently it becomes a pandemic in the Globe. In this paper, we propose the conceptual mathematical model and analyze a Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Quarantined or Isolated-Recovered- Susceptible (SEIRUS) type infectious disease model with imprecise parameters. We have divided the model formulation portion into four subsections. They are namely crisp SEIRUS model, interval SEIRUS model and fuzzy SEIRUS model. The existence condition and boundedness of the solution to our proposed model have been discussed. The asymptotical stability of the system at different equilibrium point is investigated. Also we have explained the global stability at endemic equilibrium point. Application of optimal control of the system is described and solved. Finally, some numerical results have been shown to test the theoretical study of the model. We observed that the population is greatly influenced for the imprecise nature of parameters.
INVESTIGATION OF THE STRUCTURAL TRENDS THROUGH AEROMAGNETIC DATA FOR THE CENTRAL ANATOLIAN CRYSTALLINE COMPLEX (KIRSEHIR BLOCK), TURKEY
Authors: ERBEK KIRAN Ezgi
Published: December 2021

The main goal of this study is to delineate the subsurface structural features and depths of the causative sources in the Central Anatolian Crystalline Complex (Kirsehir Block), Turkey from aeromagnetic data. To this end, spectral analysis technique, analytic signal (AS) and tilt angle method were applied to the aeromagnetic data. The depths of causative sources were founded to vary between 8.48 km and 1.60 km. The AS and tilt angle method was implemented to regional anomalies and it was seen that the geological units defined by the field observation have a deeper root below the surface. In addition, although there are no rocks that have magnetic properties in the center of the geological map, the existence of a magnetized structure in the tilt map was determined. This phenomenon can be evaluated as the existence of a highly magnetized unit in the region that may have been covered by continental clastic rocks.

Impacto do Simples Nacional no Emprego das MPEs do Estado de Pernambuco
Authors: Bendô Joane Alinne Paiva , Rocha Roberta Moraes , Justo Wellington Ribeiro , Silveira Neto Raul da Mota
Published: December 2021

Este artigo propõe-se a investigar se o Simples Nacional tem implicado níveis mais elevados de emprego para as MPEs, que são beneficiadas pelo regime de tributação simplificado e pelas alíquotas menores das contribuições e impostos que incidem sobre as empresas no Brasil. Ao focar na empresa, pode-se dizer que a renúncia fiscal gerada pelo Simples se difere das tradicionais políticas de incentivos fiscais regionais adotadas no Brasil. Porém, espera-se que os estados que têm a economia mais dependente das MPEs sejam os mais favorecidos por uma política direcionada a essas empresas. Para tanto, foram utilizados os microdados identificados da base de dados da RAIS-ME (2002 a 2014), a partir dos quais foi possível estimar modelos de regressão com controles para as características observáveis e não observáveis das firmas e, também, locacionais. O objeto de análise foi uma das principais economias da Região Nordeste, o estado de Pernambuco. Isto porque as MPEs têm uma relativa importância para a geração de emprego e renda no estado, consolidando-se em polos produtivos, especializados em serviços (Médico e Tecnológico) e indústrias/comércio (Têxtil/Confecção). Ademais, trabalhar com uma amostra de empresas que estão expostas a fatores econômicos e fiscais semelhantes minimiza possíveis vieses causados por variáveis omitidas. Os resultados encontrados indicaram que as empresas que estão no Simples Nacional geraram, em média, aproximadamente 19% mais empregos, quando comparadas com o grupo de controle, sendo esse efeito ainda maior para as empresas que passam mais tempo ininterrupto no Simples. Esses resultados são válidos mesmo após a incorporação de controles fixos e variantes no tempo das empresas e locacionais, sugerindo que a política tem um impacto positivo no mercado de trabalho formal no estado.
Desemprego Severo no Meio Rural Brasileiro
Authors: Costa Edward Martins , Vieira Filho José Eustáquio Ribeiro
Published: December 2021

Este estudo busca mensurar a probabilidade de o trabalhador rural permanecer por mais de 12 meses desempregado, no Brasil e em suas regiões. Para tanto, utilizou-se a Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílios Contínua (PNADC) do 2o trimestre, a qual contém o suplemento de informações do Programa Bolsa Família (PBF). Ademais, realizou-se a estimação econométrica por meio do modelo Probit. Os resultados mostraram que, ao receber o PBF, ter familiar aposentado e possuir baixo nível de escolaridade, aumenta-se a probabilidade de o trabalhador rural estar no desemprego severo no Brasil. Quanto às regiões rurais, os resultados foram semelhantes aos encontrados no âmbito nacional; entretanto, houve mudança nos sinais das probabilidades, denotando uma heterogeidade no mercado de trabalho rural do país. Essa heterogeneidade ficou evidente entre as regiões Nordeste, onde a agricultura familiar é preponderante, e Centro-Oeste, região reconhecidamente impulsionada pela produção de maior escala.

The data were gathered from students’ writing of analytical text along with the picture/photograph and interview. Students’ photographs and analytical text were analyzed using photovoice analysis procedures. It consisted of selecting, contextualizing, and codifying phases. Results found three main themes: the main idea, generic structure, and language features. According to the results, photovoice is not only effective for students but also makes them feel interested and motivated in learning writing. In addition, photovoice allows students to express their creativity through the lens of a camera. Photovoice has incredibly fostered students’ learning in writing. They all have positive attitudes toward photovoice participatory learning. Thus, it can be a pedagogical tool to teach writing in an EFL setting. Although this study yielded positive outcomes in writing skills, this can not overgeneralize the outcomes. Therefore, future studies on how students write other writing genres in EFL classrooms need to be conducted.

The use of taboo words is strongly influenced by culture. In the growing discourse of use of taboo words in social reality, men are often portrayed to have discourteous traits and utter any form of taboo words when compared to women. However, a movie entitled Death Proof does not show the same trend. The present research aimed at investigating taboo words in the mentioned movie by focusing on their types and motives. Through the utilization of observation and documentation techniques, the data comprised utterances of the main characters that contained taboo words. The results revealed that the main characters employed taboos of profanity, obscenity, vulgarity, epithet and insult. Pertaining to women, they also fulfill those various classifications. Conversely, insult and profanity were the typical types men uttered during the movie. In regard to the motives of using taboo words, it was discovered that psychological, social and linguistic motives tend to stimulate male characters to utter taboo words, while women are merely affected by psychological and social motives. From the results, the research concludes that female characters utter taboo words more variably than men. However, women’s variability on the production of taboo words is limited to certain situations, while men apply taboo words in multiple contexts.

Suriye’de başlayan halk isyanlarının 2011 tarihinden itibaren çatışmalara dönüşmesi çocukları, aileleri ile birlikte ülkelerinden göç etmeye zorlamıştır. Bu noktada Suriyeli çocukların göç sonrası içerisinde bulundukları sosyal çevreye yönelik sosyal uyum süreçlerinde sorunlar yaşadığı ve gelecek yaşamlarından beklentilerinde değişimlerin olduğu görülmektedir. Buradan hareketle araştırmada nitel yöntem tercih edilmiş ve araştırmanın çalışma grubunu, İstanbul’da bulunan bir ortaokulda öğrenim gören 15-17 yaş aralığında 20 Suriyeli çocuk oluşturmuştur. Araştırmanın verileri, yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme yöntemi ile toplanarak sağlanmıştır. Araştırmanın bulguları incelendiğinde çocukların yaşadıkları birtakım farklılıklar nedeniyle sosyal uyum durumlarının olumsuz geliştiği bilinmektedir. Bu durum onlarda korku ve kaygı duygusunun devam etmesine yol açmaktadır. Çocukların gelecek beklentileri arasında en çok savaşın sona ermesi ve kendi ülkelerine geri dönme umutlarının varlığı yer almaktadır. Sonuç olarak, araştırma verilerinden Türkiye’de yaşamını devam ettiren Suriyeli çocukların burada kalmaya devam ettiği sürelerde sosyal uyum durumlarının iyileştirilmesine ihtiyaç olduğu görülmektedir. Bu nedenle politikaların bu perspektiften oluşturulması önem arz etmektedir.
China's Evolution from Socialist Legality: The Expansion in the Role of Judges and the Redress of Grievances
Authors: Akhtar Zia
Published: December 2021

The Chinese state implemented a conscious transfer to a market economy after 1977 when the Four Modernisations were inaugurated and the new Constitution promulgated in 1982 raised the possibility for the separation of powers. The new framework introduced judicial review into the structure of the legal system that was to provide redress of grievances from mal administration. The transition to a new leadership in 2011 allowed the National Peoples Congress to enact administrative reforms, and further amendments to the Chinese Constitution in 2018 have promulgated the Judges Law. The judicial reforms promote the values of an independent judiciary and there is an effective machinery of justice which promotes judicial review. This paper argues that the centralisation of power by the Communist Party does not preclude the functioning of judicial administration that conforms to rule of law and an emerging trend of public interest litigation and participatory justice.
Effects of Biochar in Soil and Water Remediation: A Review
Authors: Perdigão Adelaide , Luís da Silva Pereira José
Published: December 2021

In the last decades increased global environmental concerns to water and soils pollution. The main concerns are related to the contamination of the ecosystem, food security, and human health since many of the contaminants present in soil and water (residues of pesticides and antibiotics, genes of resistance to antibiotics, and heavy metals) are absorbed by plants and enter the food chain. Remediation of the contaminated water and soil to ensure sustainable water supply and food production is urgently needed. The use of biochar can have a positive effect on this remediation process. There are several studies that demonstrate the biochar’s ability to block/reduce the contaminating effect of pesticides, antibiotic residues, antibiotic resistance genes, and heavy metals. The objective of this chapter is to carry out a comprehensive review of the effect of using biochar on the availability/transmission of these contaminants to the soil and food supply chain.

This research work has mainly utilized agricultural waste material to make a good-quality composite sheet product of the profitable, pollution free, economical better for farmer and industries. In this study, from corn leaf fibre to reinforced epoxy composite product has been utilized with minimum 35 to maximum range 55% but according to earlier studies, pulp composite material was used in minimum 10 to maximum 27%. Natural fibre-based composites are under intensive study due to their light weight, eco-friendly nature and unique properties. Due to the continuous supply, easy of handling, safety and biodegradability, natural fibre is considered as better alternative in replacing many structural and non-structural components. Corn leaf fibre pulp can be new source of raw material to the industries and can be potential replacement for the expensive and non-renewable synthetic fibre. Corn leaf fibre as the filler material and epoxy as the matrix material were used by changing reinforcement weight fraction. Composites were prepared using hand lay-up techniques by maintaining constant fibre and matrix volume fraction. The sample of the composites thus fabricated was subjected to tensile, impact test for finding the effect of corn husk in different concentrations.

Based on the review of contemporary literature, this paper provides an insight into the EU adaptation to the changes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Reverse globalization is identified through the trends in the international trade and FDI flows, while the digital markets' development is evaluated through the Number of individuals using the Internet to order goods and services and ECommerce sales. While this paper uses secondary data sources, it uniquely connects the identified reverse globalization and digital markets expansion with necessary changes in the competition policy pre and during the COVID19 pandemic. Additionally, this paper provides policymakers and business owners with relevant information and possible avenues to improve the competition policy and business strategy.
Does foreign investment improve technical efficiency of manufacturing: Evidence from the Republic of Serbia
Authors: Nikolić Ivan
Published: December 2021

This paper offers significant evidence for the presence of a beneficial impact of foreign direct investment on technical efficiency based on a balanced panel data on a sample of 92 manufacturing groups over the period 2010-2019. Throughout this period Serbia lost 28% of the potential output of the manufacturing sector due to technical inefficiency. The finding is directly supported by the results at the level of the observed groups. Thus, the greatest increase in technical efficiency is in branches with a high share of foreign ownership, such as: production of motor vehicles, production of chemicals, and production of wire and cable equipment. The methodology is based on stochastic frontier analysis - within that, 'true' random effects model. The paper contributes to a better understanding of the possible consequences of foreign-invested enterprises on the domestic economy and, in particular, the performance of local businesses. As a result, it is helpful to policymakers in developing counties, where FDI is thought to have technological spillovers on native businesses.
