Identifikasi dan Perbandingan Kelimpahan Sampah Plastik Berdasarkan Ukuran pada Sedimen di Beberapa Pantai Kabupaten Pasuruan, Jawa Timur
Authors: Yona Defri , Di Prikah Fadhilah Aisyah , As’adi Muhammad Arif
Published: August 2020

Produksi dan penggunaan plastik yang semakin meningkat dari tahun ke tahun tentunya akan berdampak pada jumlah sampah yang tersebar dan berakhir di laut. Penelitian ini dilakukan di beberapa pantai yang terdapat di Kabupaten Pasuruan yaitu: Pantai Lekok, Pasir Panjang, Watuprapat dan Kapasan. Pemilihan keempat lokasi tersebut dikarenakan masih minimnya pengelolaan sampah plastik serta tingginya aktivitas masyarakat yang berpotensi menimbulkan pencemaran plastik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis keberadaan plastik berdasarkan ukurannya (makroplastik, mesoplastik dan mikroplastik) serta membandingkan kelimpahan sampah plastik di keempat pantai tersebut. Area sampling makroplastik menggunakan transek kuadran 5 x 5 m dan di dalamnya diletakkan transek kuadran 0,5 x 0,5 m untuk sampling mesoplastik dan mikroplastik. Sampel mikroplastik dilakukan dengan mengambil sedimen sedalam 0-3 cm. Tahap identifikasi makro-mesoplastik dilakukan secara insitu sedangkan identifikasi mikroplastik dilakukan secara eksitu di laboratorium. Empat jenis sampah plastik ditemukan yaitu film, fiber, fragmen dan styrofoam. Film mendominasi di semua ukuran di keempat pantai yang selanjutnya diikuti oleh fiber, fragmen dan styrofoam. Hal ini dikarenakan tingginya penggunaan plastik sekali pakai seperti kantong plastik, bungkus makanan dan juga alat tangkap ikan.  Terdapat perbedaan kelimpahan total sampah plastik di setiap pantai untuk setiap ukuran. Kelimpahan sampah plastik di setiap ukurannya ditemukan lebih besar di Pantai Lekok dan Pasir Panjang dibandingkan di Pantai Watuprapat dan Kapasan.  Perbedaan tersebut disebabkan oleh perbedaan tingkat aktivitas manusia di keempat pantai sebagai penyumbang pencemaran plastik.

Authors: Rahsia Shandra Andina , Gusmayanti Evi , Nusantara Rossie Wiedya
Published: August 2020

Lahan gambut di Kota Pontianak sering mengalami kebakaran yang berulang hampir setiap tahun. Tutupan lahan gambut yang terbakar beragam, mulai dari semak belukar hingga kebun masyrakat seperti akasia, kelapa sawit dan kebun campuran. Selain melepaskan emisi CO2 pada saat kebakaran berlangsung, lahan gambut yang mengalami perubahan fisik dan kimia akibat kebaarakan dapat mempengaruhi jumlah emisi CO2 yang dilepaskan ke atmosfer pasca terjadinya kebakaran.  Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengukur jumlah emisi CO2 pada lahan gambut yang terbakar pada pertengahan tahun 2018 di Kota Pontianak serta menganalisis korelasinya dengan beberapa faktor lingkungan. Penelitian dilakukan pada bulan Mei- Juli 2019 di Kota Pontianak Provinsi Kalimantan Barat pada lahan gambut pasca kebakaran dengan vegetasi awal berupa tanaman akasia dan vegetasi saat dilakukan penelitian berupa semak belukar. Pengukuran Emisi CO2 menggunakan metode sungkup tertutup dengan alat ukur portable EGM 4 (Infra Red Gas Analyzer). Selain itu dilakukan pula pengambilan sampel tanah untuk menganalisis beberapa karakteristik fisik (bobot isi, kadar air gravimetrik, muka air tanah) dan kimia gambut ( kandungan bahan organik, kadar abu, kadar C Organik, pH dan Eh tanah) serta pengukuran variabel lingkungan (suhu udara dan suhu tanah). Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa nilai fluks CO2 pada selama periode pengukuran berkisar dari 183 – 595 ton CO2 dengan rerata sebesar 416,07 t CO2 ± 92,99 . Emisi CO2 ini berkorelasi tidak nyata dengan variabel lingkungan. Selain mengindikasikan kompleksitas proses dekomposisi gambut sebagai penghasil emisi CO2 di lahan pasca kebakaran yang tidak dapat dikaitkan dengan variabel lingkungan tertentu, hal ini menunjukkan perlunya melakukan pengukuran dalam jangka waktu yang lebih panjang agar pola emisi dapat terlihat.

Research on the Relationship Between Venture Capitalists’ Trust in the Entrepreneur and Their Investment Behaviors
Authors: Li Sulei , Yang Hongtao
Published: August 2020

Venture capitalists’ trust in entrepreneurs and their investment behaviors does not interact directly; Trust is a psychological state rather than static and stable phenomena. The relationship is affected by multiple factors. This study aims to develop a better understanding of the complex relationship and to show the degree of influence among factors, and to reveal “The Bewilderment of Decision-making” of VC. Based on SEM, this paper analyzes the relationship between the factors: the influencing factors at the initial stage of trust, trust, investor risk appetite, entrepreneurs’ behaviors, capitalists’ decision-making Behaviors, capitalists’ post-investment Behaviors. Our qualitative analysis is based on data by issuing 323 questionnaire surveys of 104 Chinese venture capital firms which are divided into different regions by Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM). By analyzing various behaviors, we find that entrepreneurs’ behavior is a key factor in this relationship. Several factors studied earlier have a positive impact on the capitalist’s pre-investment decision-making behavior, but no significant impact on post-investment behavior. These results include trust and investor risk appetite. Through interviews, it was found that the capitalist’s post-investment behavior was related to the capitalist’s ability, resources, management mechanism and other factors.
Material advancement in technological development for the 5G wireless communications
Authors: Hao Huali , Hui David , Lau Denvid
Published: August 2020

The rapidly increasing number of mobile devices, voluminous data, and higher data rate is pushing the development of the fifth-generation (5G) wireless communications. The 5G networks are broadly characterized by three unique features: ubiquitous connectivity, extremely low latency, and very high-speed data transfer via adoption of new technology to equip future millimeter band wireless communication systems at nanoscale and massive multi-input multi-output (MIMO) with extreme base station and device densities, as well as unprecedented numbers of nanoantennas. In this article, these new technologies of 5G are presented so as to figure out the advanced requirements proposed for the nanomaterials applied to antennas in particular. Because of massive MIMO and ultra-densification technology, conventional antennas are unable to serve the new frequency for smaller sizes, and the nanoantennas are used in 5G. The nanomaterials for nanoantennas applied in wideband millimeter waves are introduced. Four types of nanomaterials including graphene, carbon nanotubes, metallic nanomaterials, and metamaterials are illustrated with a focus on their morphology and electromagnetic properties. The challenges for the commercialization of 5G and nanomaterials are also discussed. An atomistic modeling approach is proposed for the development of novel nanomaterials applied in 5G and beyond.
Effect of interphase parameters on elastic modulus prediction for cellulose nanocrystal fiber reinforced polymer composite
Authors: Lim Joong Yeon , Kim Han-Wool , Park Min-Wook
Published: August 2020

In this study, the effective elastic modulus (Ec
) of a cellulose nanocrystal fiber reinforced polymer composite was evaluated using the Mori-Tanaka and finite element (FE) model. The FE model was generated using a representative volume element with a periodic boundary condition. The mass fractions of the fiber in the composites (MFf
) were set to 1, 2, and 3 wt.%. Elastic modulus values for interphase were input and were either uniform or exhibited a gradient. The E c
for the uniform interphase region increased significantly with MFf
, but was relatively low for interphase regions exhibiting a gradient. The results show that interphase parameters must be considered carefully when predicting Ec
using the FE model.
Health-related quality of life in burning mouth syndrome – a case-control study
Authors: Jedel Elizabeth , Elfström Magnus L. , Hägglin Catharina
Published: August 2020

Objectives

The cardinal symptom of burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is long-lasting pain and comprehensive health-related quality of life (HRQL) assessments may estimate how well patients with BMS live in relation to their health issues. The aims of the study were to explore general and BMS-specific HRQL based on an HRQL model and to compare HRQL in patients with BMS and age-matched controls.

Methods

For this case-control study 56 female patients with BMS and 56 female controls completed the following: A general questionnaire with Global items for life satisfaction, general health and oral health; General Population-Clinical Outcomes in Routine Evaluation (GP-CORE); Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS); and Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14). Patients with BMS completed additional questionnaires which included BMS-problem severity, a global item for ratings of overall severity perceptions measured by visual analog scale (VAS); and BMS-modified Multidimensional Pain Inventory-Swedish version (MPI-S). BMS-modified MPI-S includes the three subscales Pain severity, Interference and Social support.

Results

Patients with BMS scored worse on all global items, GP-CORE, HADS and OHIP-14 compared to controls and the differences were large. Patients with severe BMS problems, as defined by a median split on BMS-problem severity, scored worse on the BMS-modified MPI-S subscale Pain severity and the difference was large.

Conclusions

We found clearly impaired general HRQL in patients with BMS compared to controls. For specific HRQL, the severity of pain was worse among patients with higher overall BMS-problem severity. The HRQL model with global ratings together with physical, psychological and social concepts has capacity to increase comparability and validity of studies, however further evaluations of the measures are needed.

The HRQL model may be used over time to increase the understanding of different HRQL aspects and their internal relationships. In clinical settings, with an increased knowledge of one´s own distinctive quality of life abilities and restrictions, the patients with BMS can be guided and supported to manage their long-lasting pain. The HRQL model may be an aid toward bridging distinctions between general and oral health to further encourage collaboration between medicine and odontology.

MORRO EM CENA – A VIDA EM ARTE NO MUSEU HISTÓRICO DE MORRO REDONDO/RS
Authors: Ribeiro Diego Lemos , De Souza Marcos Roberto Silva , Carril Nair , Ribas Fábio Omar Vattimo , Manoel Miriã Da Mota
Published: August 2020

O presente artigo pretende expor as ações de teatro no projeto denominado “Morro em Cena”, no contexto de um museu do interior do estado do Rio Grande do Sul. Com as reflexões apresentadas, pretende-se fortalecer as discussões sobre as práticas do teatro para diferentes faixas etárias, dentro de instituições museológicas. A metodologia utilizada para este trabalho foi a “Investigação Baseada nas Artes”, que se fundamenta em utilizar formas não convencionais de investigação, como uso de recursos visuais e/ou performáticos. Objetiva-se discutir uma prática museológica efetivamente inclusiva e intergeracional, com viés inter e multidisciplinar, comprometida com a construção colaborativa de conhecimentos, por intermédio de realizações de diversas peças de teatro, apresentadas em diferentes cidades e contextos. Com base nas discussões ora propostas, almeja-se, doravante, o desenvolvimento de um documentário e a realização de um curta-metragem. Ao longo destes dois anos de ações artísticas dentro do espaço museológico, com crianças e adultos, foram observados resultados que transcendem a mensuração quantitativa. Os ganhos foram relacionados desde melhora da comunicação, oralidade e desinibição, por parte das crianças, quanto ao sentido de pertença e transgeracionalidade. Mais do que peças teatrais, cujo apelo dramático coloca em cena as reminiscências dos antepassados daquela comunidade, o contato direto com o acervo do museu potencializa o sentimento de partilha do indizível, oportunizando uma ressignificação de memórias e fazeres.
CAPOEIRA ANCESTRAL, UMA PRÁXIS AFRO-BRASILEIRA
Authors: Palhares Leandro Ribeiro
Published: August 2020

O presente estudo foi proposto seguindo o percurso metodológico qualitativo da revisão bibliográfica e tendo suas análises baseadas no processo construtivo e interpretativo, embasado pela Epistemologia Qualitativa. A capoeiragem pode ser uma das principais experiências históricas afro-brasileiras. A Capoeira Ancestral, que emergiu, aproximadamente, entre 1850 a 1920, se fundamenta em processos coletivos, éticos, conscientes, de resistência. Ela apresenta, até os dias de hoje, um caráter decolonial e sem fins capitalistas/mercadológicos. Os fundamentos da Capoeira Ancestral se constituíram a partir de saberes africanos. Seus ritos de guerra, de festejos e religiosos apresentavam um fazer comum, um eixo norteador: a condução do corpo, permeado pela música e pelo canto. A comunicação sempre se fez presente pelo som (tambores, palmas, corpos, vozes): a corpo-oralidade como método de preservação das identidades étnicas, dos valores e saberes ancestrais. O Recôncavo Baiano foi o berço da capoeiragem, agregando os fundamentos codificados no berimbau e nos cantos — e os Candomblés, os Sambas de Roda e o Batuque também se desenvolveram segundo a mesma episteme africana. Na Capoeira Ancestral, cada toque de berimbau tem função, cada formação de bateria codifica um saber corporal que precisa ser decifrado; o capoeirista tinha de aprender a ler carta de ABC. Resgatar a Capoeira Ancestral torna-se um passo importante na reparação das memórias e fundamentos ancestrais da capoeiragem, resistindo por décadas ao silenciamento e invizibilização, porém, ainda hoje, vivos.

O presente artigo tem como objetivo discutir a criação e a prática de duas ações educativas para dois museus universitários, com tipologias diferentes, sendo eles o Museu de Arte Leopoldo Gotuzzo e o Museu do Doce. Neste sentido, discutem-se as interfaces de um processo criativo desenvolvido com o intuito de ser uma atividade educativa para museus, portanto fez-se necessário refletir sobre teorias acerca da educação museal. Como metodologia utilizou-se a revisão bibliográfica, entrevistas com os agentes das instituições participantes, práticas de experimentação e debates em sala de aula. Ambos os projetos foram realizados em sua totalidade, envolvendo cerca de oitenta jovens de diferentes instituições. Possibilitando assim uma ampliação da atuação dos museus envolvidos, bem como o diálogo com públicos muitas vezes distantes destes.

A Extensão é a ação de interação entre universidade e sociedade, existe e opera na Cultura dos grupos da qual participa e decorre. Amalgamadas, extensão e cultura desenvolvem-se, transformam-se e ganham novos sentidos. Pela heterogeneidade dos seus atores, com impacto direto na qualificação cidadã, crítica, saudável e criativa, a Cultura atende a missão da universidade: conhecimento aplicado, em amplitude do saber fazer, na transversalidade das suas dimensões acadêmicas integralizadas. Considerando a universidade como parte inseparável da sociedade, e vice-versa, torna-se difícil, ou provavelmente impossível, desenvolver a tríade Ensino, Pesquisa e Extensão sem pautar a Cultura como um elemento constitutivo, integrado e fundamental para a formação do sujeito. Estas dimensões, que são complementares, estão para além das disciplinas. Cada uma delas é um sistema em expansão articulado e comprometido com o contexto no qual agem, no qual funcionam, como verdadeira metáfora da chave com o cadeado. O compartilhamento entre "mundos" permite a criação de outros "mundos" e, consequentemente, compreensões de suas realidades em estado contínuo de transformação. Como uma criança que aprende a perspectiva e passa a perceber o espaço pelo seu escalonamento, desde cedo, também escalona o tempo por entre sua prática e modifica seus processos, velocidades e sonhos. A experiência, assim, produz significado pela cultura e possibilita construir formas de ser, de expressar, de pensar e de decidir, à vista disso, por um ou outro caminho. Nela se potencializa a permanência dos valores humanos e/ou os seus esvaecimentos, ambos pautados pela pluralidade dos perfis dos seus inter-atores (professores, técnicos, alunos, comunidade externa) e de suas emergências: viver e ser feliz com a sua vida e a vida do outro.
Microglial mTOR is Neuronal Protective and Antiepileptogenic in the Pilocarpine Model of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy

Published: August 2020

Excessive activation of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling is epileptogenic in genetic epilepsy. However, the exact role of microglial mTOR in acquired epilepsy remains to be clarified. In the present study, we found that mTOR is strongly activated in microglia following excitatory injury elicited by status epilepticus. To determine the role of microglial mTOR signaling in excitatory injury and epileptogenesis, we generated mice with restrictive deletion of mTOR in microglia. Both male and female mice were used in the present study. We found that mTOR-deficient microglia lost their typical proliferative and inflammatory responses to excitatory injury, whereas the proliferation of astrocytes was preserved. In addition, mTOR-deficient microglia did not effectively engulf injured/dying neurons. More importantly, microglial mTOR-deficient mice displayed increased neuronal loss and developed more severe spontaneous seizures. These findings suggest that microglial mTOR plays a protective role in mitigating neuronal loss and attenuating epileptogenesis in the excitatory injury model of epilepsy.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTThe mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway is strongly implicated in epilepsy. However, the effect of mTOR inhibitors in preclinical models of acquired epilepsy is inconsistent. The broad presence of mTOR signaling in various brain cells could prevent mTOR inhibitors from achieving a net therapeutic effect. This conundrum has spurred further investigation of the cell type-specific effects of mTOR signaling in the CNS. We found that activation of microglial mTOR is antiepileptogenic. Thus, microglial mTOR activation represents a novel antiepileptogenic route that appears to parallel the proepileptogenic route of neuronal mTOR activation. This may explain why the net effect of mTOR inhibitors is paradoxical in the acquired models of epilepsy. Our findings could better guide the use of mTOR inhibitors in preventing acquired epilepsy.
Stress Impairs Intentional Memory Control through Altered Theta Oscillations in Lateral Parietal Cortex

Published: August 2020

Accumulating evidence suggests that forgetting is not necessarily a passive process but that we can, to some extent, actively control what we remember and what we forget. Although this intentional control of memory has potentially far-reaching implications, the factors that influence our capacity to intentionally control our memory are largely unknown. Here, we tested whether acute stress may disrupt the intentional control of memory and, if so, through which neural mechanism. We exposed healthy men and women to a stress (n= 27) or control (n= 26) procedure before they aimed repeatedly to retrieve some previously learned cue-target pairs and to actively suppress others. While control participants showed reduced memory for suppressed compared with baseline pairs in a subsequent memory test, this suppression-induced forgetting was completely abolished after stress. Using magnetoencephalography (MEG), we show that the reduced ability to suppress memories after stress is associated with altered theta activity in the inferior temporal cortex when the control process (retrieval or suppression) is triggered and in the lateral parietal cortex when control is exerted, with the latter being directly correlated with the stress hormone cortisol. Moreover, the suppression-induced forgetting was linked to altered connectivity between the hippocampus and right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (PFC), which in turn was negatively correlated to stress-induced cortisol increases. These findings provide novel insights into conditions under which our capacity to actively control our memory breaks down and may have considerable implications for stress-related psychopathologies, such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), that are characterized by unwanted memories of distressing events.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTIt is typically assumed that forgetting is a passive process that can hardly be controlled. There is, however, evidence that we may actively control, to some extent, what we remember and what we forget. This intentional memory control has considerable implications for mental disorders in which patients suffer from unwanted (e.g., traumatic) memories. Here, we demonstrate that the capacity to intentionally control our memory breaks down after stress. Using magnetoencephalography (MEG), we show that this stress-induced memory control deficit is linked to altered activity in the lateral parietal cortex and the connectivity between the hippocampus and right prefrontal cortex (PFC). These findings provide novel insights into conditions under which memory control fails and are highly relevant in the context of stress-related psychopathologies.
