Published: July 2024

Vibrio parahaemolyticus is one of the causative agents of vibriosis which causes mortality and significant economic losses in shrimp aquaculture. Application of probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics is an environmentally friendly strategy to control vibriosis and limit the use of antibiotics. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of probiotic, prebiotic and synbiotic diets on survival, growth and immune response of white shrimp. The experiments consisted of 5 treatments and 5 replications. (K-) Without the addition of probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics and no challenge test; (K+) Without the addition of probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics and challenge test; (P1) Addition of probiotics and challenge test; (P2) Addition of prebiotics and challenge test; (P3) Addition of synbiotics and challenge test. The parameters measured were SGR, FCR, THC, phagocytosis activity, lysozyme activity and SR. The results showed that SGR and FCR with probiotic (4.70±0.29%; 1.53±0.10) and synbiotic (4.60±0.15%; 1.64±0.14) diets were significantly different than K+ and no significant differences between them. The post-challenge results showed that the survival with probiotic (61.33±8.69%), prebiotic (42.67±7.60%) and synbiotic (57.33±10.11%) diets was significantly different than K+ (21.33±11.93%). No significant differences between probiotic and synbiotic diets on survival. Synbiotic diets showed the best immune response post-challenge test with THC (1.59±0.26x106 cells/mL), phagocytosis activity (42.80±6.91%), and lysozyme activity (0.92±0.11 cm) and significantly different than K+. The study concluded that probiotic or synbiotic diets had the best effect on SGR, FCR and survival of white shrimp post V. parahaemolyticus infection. Meanwhile, synbiotic diets showed the best immune response post V. parahaemolyticus infection.

Published: July 2024

Given its thermoalkaliphilic properties, T1 lipase holds significant potential for diverse industrial applications. However, traditional expression methods in Escherichia coli, specifically the plasmid-based system, present challenges of exerting metabolic burden on host cells and elevated costs due to antibiotic usage. This study addresses these issues by pioneering the expression of recombinant T1 lipase in a sucrose-utilizing E. coli strain W, using molasses as an economical carbon source. The gene cassette (KIKO plasmid), containing the T1 lipase gene regulated by tac and trc promoters, was integrated into the E. coli genome via the λ Red recombinase system. T1 lipase was optimally expressed in shake flasks at 16°C and a 3% molasses concentration in M9 medium with 0.8 mM IPTG as inducer, yielding 0.44 U/mL activity in the genome-based system compared to 0.94 U/mL in the plasmid-based system. This study not only underscores the potential of employing sucrose-utilizing E. coli strain for industrial recombinant protein production but also highlights the need for further optimization of genome-based expression systems. It offers an alternative to reduce costs and enhance sustainability in the stable production of industrially relevant enzymes like T1 lipase, without the need for antibiotic supplementation, and has broader implications for leveraging inexpensive carbon sources like molasses in biotechnological applications.

Published: July 2024

The management of huge waste generated from crop harvesting and processing has continued to create challenges and constitute an environmental nuisance. Inappropriate disposal and open-air burning of crop residues exacerbate environmental pollution, escalate bush burning and deforestation, and impact human health. Mixing, processing, and conversion of crop residues to form useful composites for various applications remain one of the economical, eco-friendly, and sustainable strategies for its management. The study constructed composites by mixing different ratios of unripe plantain peel (UPP) and coconut fibre (CCF) with an appropriate binder and hardener. The fabricated composites were subjected to mechanical, compositional, and morphological analyses. The outcomes of the tests show that the hardness, tensile strength, and impact strength only UPP is 97.8 RHN, 411 MPa, and 9 818 J/m2, respectively while the CCF/UPP composite is 98.5 RHN, 538 MPa, and 12 273 J/m2, respectively. The wear rate of UPP is 0.56 cm3/m while that of the CFF/UPP composite is as high as 0.73 cm3/m and increases with increased load. Silicon, oxygen, and aluminium are the major constituents of the composite samples as revealed by the compositional analysis. The tensile strength, hardness, impact, and wear rate of UPP can be boosted by the blending of CFF to form homogenous composites. The outcome of this study will deepen the literature and escalate research into the conversion and utilization of crop residues for diverse applications. The usage of innovative technologies and energy-efficient techniques should be adopted for the processing, modification, and conversion of crop residues.

Published: July 2024

Landfilling is the most common practice used for the disposal of solid waste since it is the cheapest method of municipal solid waste management. The present study aims to determine the physical and chemical characteristics of dumped solid waste collected directly from Okhla landfill site (New Delhi, India) which has been declared as exhausted in 2018. These waste samples have been collected having ages beyond 20 years. Further, several laboratory tests were performed on the samples to investigate parameters namely physical composition, moisture content, density, optimum moisture content, pH, electrical conductivity, percentages of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), hydrogen (H), sulphur (S) and C/N ratio. The physical composition of samples was found to be substantially heterogenous. The mean values for moisture content and optimum moisture content were observed as 10.03% and 22.27% respectively. Moreover, the mean of density, pH and electrical conductivity were obtained as 1323.88 kg/m3, 6.44 and 3.06 mho/cm respectively. On the other hand, the elemental parameters C, H, N, S mean percentages were evaluated as 5.98%, 0.73%, 0.27% and 0.71%. Consequently, C/N ratio was evaluated as 23.46 for the samples. These results have also been compared with the MSW characteristics of Asian countries.

Published: July 2024

This research aims to analyze the financial performance of the Ambon City regional government in terms of financial ratios in implementing regional autonomy. This research is a descriptive qualitative research type. Using documentation study data collection techniques or by tracing which is done by collecting secondary data, namely regional government financial report data for 2012 - 2015 from related agencies. The data analysis technique used is the descriptive analysis technique to assess financial performance, namely the regional independence ratio, effectiveness ratio, regional financial activity/harmony ratio and regional financial growth ratio, assessing financial capability using the degree of fiscal autonomy ratio and routine capability index. The research results found that the Regional Financial Independence Ratio (RKKD) of Ambon City during the three year observation period from 2013 to 2015 was on a scale of 0% - 25%, which means it was classified as "poor". Regional Financial Activity/Harmony Ratio (RAKD) for Direct Expenditures (BL) and Indirect Expenditures (BTL) in Ambon City, where during the observation period Indirect Expenditures (BTL) had a large portion compared to Direct Expenditures. The amount of indirect expenditure has reached more than 65%, which means that the Ambon City Government spends more on personnel expenditure than on public services. Growth ratio, it is known that of the four elements of the APBD, namely PAD, TPD, Indirect Expenditure and Direct Expenditure, the Ambon City government was only able to maintain good PAD growth during the observation period from 2013 to 2015, the rest of the growth rate still needs to be improved. The DOF ratio of Ambon City during the three year observation period from 2013 to 2015 was "very poor", below 10%, and that means that the Ambon City Government has very poor ability to finance government activities. The Routine Capacity Index (IKR) for the three year observation period from 2013 to 2015 shows that the ability of the Ambon City government to spend routine expenditures with local original income is still "deficient", namely less than 20% or in other words more than 80% of the City's routine expenditures. Ambon is covered by funds from the center.

Published: July 2024

With continued conflicts all over the world, more refugees will continue migrating to countries they consider safe. According to Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung and Young Leaders Think Tank (2017), refugees prefer dwelling in urban areas, which can be attributed to the global urbanisation phenomenon. This paper examines the factors influencing rural-urban migration to inform refugee management in urban settings. According to the Office of the Prime Minister, Uganda Refugee Statistics of September 2023, Uganda was host to over 1.5 million refugees, mainly from, South Sudan, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Somalia, Burundi, Eritrea and Rwanda. These refugees are registered in the rural settlements (refugee camps) as provided for by Uganda’s legal framework on the management of refugees, which framework also only recognises refugees in the capital Kampala as urban refugees. However, the landscape has evolved as some refugees have self-settled in various urban centres across Uganda, rapidly increasing the urban population and stressing urban services. Our study findings in Koboko Municipality show various personal, push and pull factors responsible for the refugees’ decision for rural-urban migration. These factors relate to demographic age, education level, gender, better social services, payable employment, economic activities, and utilisation of skills among others. The findings signal the need to recognise and plan for urban refugees in urban areas other than Kampala City. Urbanisation is a factor in refugee management in Uganda.

THE RISE OF PRIVATIZATION IN HEALTH SECTOR: EXPLORING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PRIVATE HEALTH CARE AND THE UPPER CLASS
Authors: Kamrunnahar Koli
Published: July 2024

In the past twenty years, the transfer of health care services from public to private ownership has been a topic of significant interest in almost every country worldwide. Privatization and the free-market system have become attractive options for countries dealing with rising healthcare costs, growing dissatisfaction with the effectiveness and quality of care in public health facilities, and limited public resources to support healthcare services. The purpose of the research to explore the relationship between private health care and the upper class. The study identifies the causes of privatization, including globalization, modernization, urbanization, capitalism, neoliberal policy formation, and people's access to it. This study is based on primary data. In order to collect primary data, a comprehensive study questionnaire was designed, including both structured closed-ended and open-ended questions, and data have been collected randomly from ten private hospitals in Madaripur. The research included a sample size of 130 respondents, consisting of 110 patients, 20 nurses, and hospital authorities. The findings conclude that private health care is the outcome of elites’ demand, which is decorated with advanced facilities. In a public hospital, it is impossible for a patient to anticipate a simple pathological or radiological examination. Patients ultimately find themselves compelled to visit private clinics. However, the high cost of these clinics often restricts people's access to them. Aside from this, capitalism has given birth to private ownership and class categorization in society, while neoliberal policy has reduced government control over public expenditure. Market competition, individual responsibility, consumer choice, and lifestyle change have also increased the privatization of health services in Madaripur, as well as in the larger cities of Bangladesh.

Teaching English in a Mexican intercultural university: analyzing teacher discourses and practices from ELF perspectives
Authors: Ramírez López Francisco Javier
Published: July 2024

The purpose of this article is to show how English teachers have integrated the concept of interculturality and how they have affected the teaching of English in an intercultural university in southeastern Mexico. Based on the contributions of the ELF approach, biographical interviews with five English teachers were analyzed to explore their discourses on the educational model and its relationship with the sociocultural context of the Yucatan Peninsula. Interviews were analyzed through discourse analysis and three categories were obtained by which teachers make sense of their current professional practice: (1) the creation of intercultural relationships, (2) the interculturalization of ELT, and (3) discursive tensions towards an intercultural approach. Different positions and definitions about interculturality and its implications in the English classroom were found. Through an ELF approach, emphasis is placed on taking advantage of the diversity present in the classroom to develop intercultural awareness. It also explores the need to pay attention to communicative needs rather than continuing with traditional communication patterns and developing critical thinking in their students.

How does ChatGPT Compare with Conventional Neural Machine Translation Systems in Performing a Chinese to English Translation Task?
Authors: CAI LIJIAN
Published: July 2024

Abstract As machine translation (MT) systems have made significant progress in recent years, it is essential to understand their strengths and weaknesses. In this paper, I look at how ChatGPT compares with DeepL and Google Translate in performing a Chinese to English translation
task. This comparative analysis points to better readability of ChatGPT-generated translations compared with output by the conventional neural machine translation (NMT) engines. The analysis also unequivocally affirms that the enhanced capabilities noted have not resulted in an adequately
high level of context awareness able to shield algorithms from generating incoherent or contextually irrelevant texts or outright nonsense; and it concludes that the human touch remains indispensable and that any algorithmic takeover of the translation industry is not going to happen anytime
soon. This does not mean, the paper argues, that there is no urgency to relinquish a business-as-usual mindset. The paper highlights the imperative to embrace AI technology as a transformative force to remake the translation industry; as well as the need for translation education programs
with a view to staying relevant through a more sensible focus on rigorous training in practical skills and critical thinking, and the cultivation of linguistic and cultural competency.
Machine Translation and Legal Text: A Case Study around Terminology (Spanish-Chinese)
Authors: GARCÉS CARMEN VALERO , HU LIANGJIAN
Published: July 2024

Abstract This paper is a follow-up study to the research conducted by the authors in May 2023, in which they extracted some provisions from the Spanish Civil Code and used five popular free online translation tools, namely: GPT 3, Google Translate, DeepL, Baidu Translate
and Youdao Translate, to translate these provisions into Chinese. The aim of the study was to record and analyse how those five free online translation tools translate seven selected legal terms contained in the provisions; to summarize the common errors observed; and to call for collaboration
between translation professionals, on the one hand, and machine translation (MT) engineers, on the other, with a view to optimizing the performance of MT in legal translation (language pair Spanish-Chinese). In this follow-up research, the authors wish to determine whether any of the five
tools has displayed any change in performance over the previous six months, and to repeat the experiment with seven legal terms, of which three are different from those of the previous study. This follow-up study shows that, overall, the types of translation errors found in the previous study
persist, while, individually, GPT 4 has better rendition than GPT 3 in the translation of the limited group of terms chosen for the study.

Authors: Janah Syahratul , Platini Hesti , Fitri Siti Ulfah Rifaatul
Published: July 2024

Pleural effusion is a collection of fluid in the pleura caused by the impact of another disease. Treatment for pleural effusion can be provided through the nursing care process with airway management interventions to help minimize shortness of breath in patients. There are nursing actions that can be carried out independently by nurses, namely the semi-fowler or fowler position, administering additional oxygen, and other therapies such as pursed lips breathing. The aim of this research is to determine the effectiveness of the combination of pursed lips breathing and high fowler position in the nursing care process for patients with ineffective airway clearance nursing problems in patients with pleural effusion using the case report method and nursing care approach. The results of the study showed that the combination of pursed lips breathing and the use of the selected high fowler position as high as 90 degrees for 3 days provided comfort and reduced shortness of breath with pleural effusion while being balanced by the provision of pharmacological therapy. Providing pursed lips breathing therapy and high fowler position has the potential to reduce shortness of breath in patients with pleural effusion
Natural products as anticancer agents and enhancing their efficacy by a mechanism-based precision approach
Authors: Safe Stephen
Published: July 2024

Traditional medicines and their active ingredients and some natural products and derived analogs have been used for treating multiple diseases including cancer. Among these compounds cytotoxic agents such as bleomycin, paclitaxel and vincristine block essential pathways and genes required for cancer cell growth and these agents have diverse clinical applications. Dietary phenolics including flavonoids and related compounds are associated with multiple health benefits however most individual dietary compounds and other natural products that show promising anticancer activity in preclinical studies exhibit minimal clinical effectiveness and this is particularly true for cancer. Many of the compounds perform poorly in clinical trials due to pharmacokinetic consideration and limited uptake (e.g., curcumin) and these are issues that can be addressed. The clinical effectiveness of flavonoids and many other natural product-derived anticancer compounds can also be enhanced by a more targeted approach. This would include identifying a significant response/gene or target in a specific cancer and then identifying the optimal compound. In this review, I have discussed a limited number of targets including non-oncogene addiction genes such as Sp transcription factors, reactive oxygen species (ROS) or the orphan nuclear receptor 4A (NR4A) sub-family. Thus, the most active compound for these responses could be used only for treating patients that are ROS-inducible or highly express targets such as Sp1 or NR4A sub-family members. A mechanism-based precision medicine approach should enhance the clinical efficacy of dietary and related natural products as anticancer agents and decrease toxic side effects for some combination therapies.

The Program was delivered to 733 schools in 2023, and due to the ongoing implementation of the Program across multiple years, the study draws comparisons across different cohorts – including new and continuing schools. The evaluation is based on 2,654 surveys completed by educators, and 8,981 surveys completed by students in years 3 to 6. Results indicate that most students and educators reported positive sentiment toward the Program, with educators and students identifying a range of improvements to student wellbeing. Students who showed greater enjoyment of the program, or took elements of the program home, yielded significantly higher wellbeing outcomes than comparative students. In addition, students reporting the greatest wellbeing benefits, also believed their educator effectively communicated the Program's purpose, delivered it enthusiastically, and fostered strong student bonds. The implications surrounding the relationship between program engagement, and educator delivery were discussed, including methodological considerations for future program evaluation.

Spatio-Temporal Variability of Algal Bloom in the Caspian Sea

Published: July 2024

Seasonal, interannual variability and spatial distribution of algal bloom in the North, Middle and South Caspian Sea has been investigated on the basis of Aqua MODIS chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentration data. Multi-year data demonstrate that over the two past decades Chl-a concentration has increased only in the North Caspian where the main rivers Volga and Ural enter the sea. In the Middle and South Caspian, it has shown weak negative linear trends. Special attention is paid to anomalous phytoplankton bloom, first of all cyanobacteria, in the South Caspian. Over 24 years of satellite observation, 1999-2022, abnormally intense phytoplankton bloom has been detected 8 times. Till present, it remains an open question what causes such outbreaks of intense algal bloom in the South Caspian. Generally, the literature and our studies suggest a variety of possible drivers of algal bloom, such as high sea surface and air temperature, low wind speed, high Chl-a concentration in periods preceding the development of phytoplankton bloom, atmospheric precipitation, and even dust storms. However, for the South Caspian we have found no clear correlation with any of these factors. Satellite monitoring of intense blooms, especially cyanobacteria, is of vital importance because cyanobacteria can produce potent toxins that can cause negative consequences for wildlife, ecosystems and even affect human health.

Kecacingan adalah penyakit infeksi yang ditimbulkan oleh parasit berupa cacing. Penyakit kecacingan biasanya terjadi di anak-anak usia 1 sampai 12 tahun, yang disebabkan karena anak belum bisa menjaga kebersihan. Prevensi penyakit kecacingan masih tinggi terutama di wilayah beriklim tropis dan sub tropis. Faktor penyebab tingginya prevensi  kecacingan yaitu rendahnya tingkat sanitasi pribadi (sikap hidup bersih serta sehat) dan buruknya sanitasi lingkungan. Tujuan dari review jurnal ini yaitu untuk mengetahui tingkat swamedikasi obat cacing di masyarakat. Berdasarkan pengamatan peneliti terhadap pengetahuan pencegahan kecacingan, peneliti menemukan bahwa masyarakat kurang memiliki pengetahuan tentang pencegahan kecacingan. Oleh karena itu edukasi tentang helminthiasis sangat diperlukan. Konseling kesehatan membantu menyebarkan pengetahuan masyarakat khususnya dalam pengobatan kecacingan, terutama bagi orang tua yang memiliki anak.

EXPLORANDO AS INTERSEÇÕES DA HISTÓRIA AMBIENTAL URBANA: UM PANORAMA BIBLIOGRÁFICO DAS OBRAS FUNDAMENTAIS
Authors: Medeiros Leandro Gonçalves De
Published: July 2024

Este artigo apresenta um panorama bibliográfico das obras fundamentais no campo da História Ambiental Urbana, destacando a importância da compreensão das interações entre as cidades e seus ambientes naturais ao longo da história. Inicialmente, são discutidos aspectos conceituais e teóricos que fundamentam o estudo das relações complexas entre as cidades e o ambiente natural. Lewis Mumford é reconhecido como um pioneiro na integração das preocupações ambientais ao estudo das cidades, enfatizando a dependência dessas últimas em relação aos recursos naturais. Donald Worster contribui para a compreensão das interações entre as atividades humanas e o ambiente natural, destacando a necessidade de considerar as limitações naturais na jornada humana. Autores como William Cronon, Joachim Radkau e Matthew Gandy são citados por suas perspectivas sobre a relação entre as cidades e o ambiente natural no contexto da sustentabilidade urbana. Cronon enfatiza a importância de um planejamento urbano que leve em consideração as características ecológicas locais, enquanto Radkau aborda a ecologia urbana como uma narrativa libertadora. Gandy propõe estratégias para tornar as cidades mais resilientes e adaptáveis às mudanças ambientais, promovendo uma gestão urbana mais integrada e sustentável. Por fim, são discutidos os desafios contemporâneos da urbanização - à luz de autores brasileiros de diversas áreas - como as mudanças climáticas, a degradação de habitats naturais, a poluição e a escassez de recursos, destacando a necessidade de respostas coordenadas e urgentes para promover práticas sustentáveis e mitigar os impactos negativos sobre o meio ambiente e a sociedade.
