Manejo de residuos sólidos urbanos en la ciudad de Orizaba durante la pandemia de COVID-19
Authors: Domínguez Corona Dannia Mariel , Zamora Hernández Abigail , González López Gloria Inés
Published: November 2024

La pandemia de COVID-19 tuvo un impacto significativo en el manejo de los residuos sólidos. Lo anterior derivado de las medidas de confinamiento para frenar la propagación del virus, que propició aumento del consumo de productos de limpieza y de la compra de artículos en línea. Además, el uso de mascarillas, guantes y equipo de protección personal, así como los casos de enfermos positivos que convalecieron en las casas, contribuyó al incremento en la generación de residuos sólidos urbanos (RSU) y biológico infecciosos. El presente trabajo abordó el manejo de los RSU en la ciudad de Orizaba, ubicada en la zona centro del estado de Veracruz. La metodología se dividió en cuatro etapas, primero se estudió la operación del sistema de Limpia Pública y se solicitó información sobre medidas de prevención durante la contingencia, así como los cambios en las actividades del personal de recolección. Posteriormente, se diseñaron y aplicaron tres encuestas, que fueron los instrumentos de apoyo para conocer: a) las condiciones de la recolección; b) la percepción de los supervisores y c) el punto de vista de los usuarios. La última fase fue el análisis de los datos recopilados. Los resultados mostraron que al inicio de la pandemia se efectuó la recolección diferenciada de RSU y de los marcados como residuos COVID. A todo el personal se le capacitó y se le otorgó equipo y material de protección personal. Sin embargo, 78% de los recolectores mencionaron que varios compañeros dieron positivo a COVID. Más de la mitad de los habitantes (54%), dijo no haber realizado separación y marcado de residuos COVID, lo que coincide con la percepción que tuvieron los recolectores y los supervisores. Los usuarios manifestaron la falta de difusión de información por parte de LP, así como la necesidad de que implementen nuevas estrategias.
A művészeti magazin mint a kortárs művészet alternatív megjelenítési rítusa
Authors: Szlama Norbert
Published: November 2024

A művészeti alkotások megjelenítése összetett kérdés. Egy alkotáshoz tervezett megjelenítési tér sok esetben torzul, megváltozik, felülírja valamilyen körülmény. Ezért egy olyan felület, ami távol áll minden elképzelhető fizikális tértől, érzékeny pontja egy ilyen reprezentációnak. Erre példa a művészeti magazin. A fizikai térből a kétdimenziós térbe konvertálja az alkotást. Ezt csak érzékeny és értő módon teheti meg. Emiatt válik ez a megjelenítési aktus különlegessé. Nem egy objektív kommunikációs pozíció, inkább egyfajta személyes rítus. Ezért feltételezem, hogy a művészeti magazinoknál tapasztalható, külső szemmel természetesnek és neutrálisnak tűnő megjelenés több kérdést vet fel, mint amit a puszta jelenlétük indokolna. Ezen kérdések közül cikkemben foglalkozni fogok a magazinok kereskedelmi vonatkozásával, a magazinok mögött álló szerkesztőkkel. Közelebbről szemlélem azt, hogy az előző két tényező befolyásolja-e a megjelenített műalkotás valamely kommunikációs vonatkozását, és azt is vizsgálom, hogy a művészek által szerkesztett magazinok miben különbözhetnek a professzionális szervezetek által szerkesztett magazinoktól.

Published: November 2024

Medicinal plants have been known and used worldwide for thousands of years. One type of medicinal plant that is often used is gaharu. The efficacy of gaharu leaves provides properties as a fever reducer, increases appetite, launches menstruation, and relieves pain. This study aims to determine whether there is an analgesic effect from the methanol extract of gaharu leaves in male Wistar rats using the heat stimulation method. This study was an experimental study using twenty-five male Wistar rats divided into five groups. Group I (negative control), rats were treated with 1% CMC-Na. Group II (positive control), rats treated with mefenamic acid 45 mg/kg BW. Group III, IV, and V rats were treated with gaharu leaf methanol extract suspension (100; 200, and 400) mg/kg BW. Pain stimulation was carried out by dipping the rat tail into a 40°C water bath. Data on response time to pain, stimuli were analyzed using the One-Way Analysis of Variance (ANNOVA) method with a 95% confidence level followed by a post-hoc Tukey test to determine which group had the same or significantly different effect. The results showed that the normal response time data for mice to painful stimuli ranged from 2.79 to 3.57 seconds. 1% CMC-Na treatment in mice was unable to increase the response time to a significant pain stimulus (p>0.05). Mefenamic acid treatment 45 mg/Kg BW significantly increased the response time to painful stimuli (p<0.05) with the longest average response time to painful stimuli, namely 8.87 seconds. Based on the method used in this research, methanol extract of agarwood leaves 400 mg/kgBW has almost the same analgesic effect as mefenamic acid 45 mg/KgBW.

The age period of 4 - 5 years is the first basis for the development of physical (motor), cognitive, language, social, emotional and cognitive abilities. According to WHO, it is estimated that 5-10% of children experience delays in thinking, with an estimated 1-3% especially for children under 5 years. In Indonesia there is a general developmental delay which includes motor, language, social, emotional and cognitive development. This research was conducted to see the relationship between maternal knowledge and gross motor development in preschool children at TKIT Al Hikmah. The research design used is analytical research with a cross sectional approach. This research was carried out at TKIT Al Hikmah in September 2023. The population in this study was all mothers of preschool age children at TKIT Al Hikmah totaling 43 people. Samples taken from the total population. From the results of the chi square test with a confidence level of 95% (α = 0.05), the calculation results show that the p value (0.049) < α (0.05) means that ha is accepted and ho is rejected. From these results it can be concluded that there is a relationship between knowledge and gross motor development in preschool children. It is hoped that respondents will be willing to participate in increasing knowledge and paying attention to the motoric development of preschool-aged children.

Authors: Begari Teja , Bernhard Klaus , Paunzen Ernst
Published: November 2024

Apsidal motion in binary stars refers to the gradual precession of the elliptical orbits of two stars around their common center of mass. This phenomenon occurs due to gravitational interactions, which cause the orientation of the orbit to shift over time. We present the indication of apsidal rotation in the eclipsing binary system Gaia DR3 2059297390930630400 (ZTF J195804.88+343708.1) by using the photometric data from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) and Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). We used Peranso to derive the orbital period from ZTF and times of minima from the TESS data.

PREVALENSI KEJADIAN HYPERMETROPIA PADA MAHASISWA UNIVERSITAS MA CHUNG MALANG PADA BULAN JULI TAHUN 2024 Prevalence Of Hypermetropia In Students Of Ma Chung University Malang In July 2024
Authors: Hendra Yuda  , Joko Irawan  , Kukuh Mujiono
Published: November 2024

Hypermetropia is a refractive disorder that affects the eye's focus on close objects and can affect academic activities. This study involved 125 students from Ma Chung University Malang, aged 17–24 years, to determine the prevalence of hypermetropia and explore factors that affect their visual health. Data collection was carried out through visual acuity examination using the Snellen chart and questionnaires related to visual habits and duration of gadget use. The results showed that 3.2% of respondents had hypermetropia. Most students (96.8%) used gadgets for more than two hours per day, with 91.2% of them doing so in a lying position, which can increase the risk of eye strain. In addition, symptoms such as blurred vision (58.4%) and eye fatigue (38.4%) were frequently reported. Other risk factors, such as lack of outdoor activities, also contributed to the decline in eye health. Education about healthy visual habits, such as the application of the 20-20-20 rule and regular eye examinations, is essential to prevent worsening of the condition. The results of this study are expected to be a basis for universities in increasing student awareness of the importance of maintaining eye health in the digital era.

Published: November 2024

Following the invasion of the Russian Federation on Ukraine on 24th February 2022, Poland has received an unprecedented influx of refugees. Statistics Poland and the World Health Organization (WHO) immediately recognized the urgent need for reliable data on the health needs of refugees and the barriers relating to their access to medical care, which would enable an effective response to the situation. The sudden surge in healthcare demand caused by the influx of those fleeing war required targeted interventions to ensure the well-being of both the refugees and the Polish population. The aim of the article is to present the methodology and key findings of the “Health of Refugees from Ukraine in Poland” survey. This comprehensive study included questionnaires conducted among members of refugee households, supplemented by behavioral insights research based on in-depth interviews with refugees from Ukraine. Additionally, interviews were conducted with Polish and Ukrainian healthcare providers, authorities responsible for rescue operations and representatives of non-governmental organizations. The mixed-methods approach was applied, which encompasses both quantitative and qualitative research. Its flexibility and the use of data from administrative registers along with big data enabled real-time analyses and a more precise understanding of the refugees’ health situation, with particular regard to the needs of women and older people. The findings of the research highlight the importance of addressing language and financial barriers, issues related to the unfamiliarity with the health system, as well as service constraints (e.g. long waiting lists) and cultural barriers (e.g. stigma associated with mental health issues). The universal application of this approach has also been approved by the UN Statistical Commission, which recommended its further development and implementation in other countries facing a refugee crisis.
Czy warto budować modele prognozowania upadłości przedsiębiorstw uwzględniające kryterium przynależności sektorowej?
Authors: Herman Sergiusz , Lach Bartłomiej
Published: November 2024

Forecasting bankruptcy of enterprises is a very important area, and it is of interest to a wide group of stakeholders. For this reason, since the beginning of the last century, continuous work aimed at developing effective tools used to this end has been undertaken. The main goal of the study presented in this article is to verify the legitimacy of constructing industry models for forecasting the bankruptcy of enterprises. The research was conducted on the basis of finan-cial data of 800 Polish companies for the years 2015–2019, drawn from the EMIS Professional database. The analysis used six methods of variable selection, six machine learning methods and 500 distinct random training and testing samples. The obtained results lead to the conclusion that there are different determinants of bankruptcy in different sectors of the economy. Models constructed on the basis of a group of enterprises conducting homogeneous economic activity make it possible to achieve, on average, higher classification accuracy rates, which demonstrates that the construction of such models is justified.

Yet they are a case in point that learning technologists provide a rare opportunity for university faculty to think through how they teach.

Sociolinguistics of regional languages: An analysis of Javanese and Madurese usage among elementary school children in Jember, Indonesia
Authors: Ferdi Hasan Moh. , Monita Diana , Sri Nugraheni Aninditya
Published: November 2024

This study analyses the patterns of Javanese and Madurese language use among primary school children in Jember, Indonesia, where the two ethnic cultures meet. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through observations, interviews and questionnaires on 50 primary school students, 6 teachers and 10 parents from three different schools. Results show a clear diglossia between Indonesian for education and the regional language (Javanese/Madurese) for informal interaction. Children code-switch between these languages flexibly depending on the social context. Families play an important role in the maintenance of regional languages, while schools and digital media such as YouTube tend to encourage the use of Indonesian. Although regional languages are still strong, national/global influences are increasingly driving the use of Indonesian, reflecting the tension between local identity and national/global demands that children face. This research provides insight into the sociolinguistic dynamics in a region with two dominant languages.

Due to the rapidly expanding agriculture and metal sectors, as well as inappropriate waste management, fertilisers, and pesticides, these inorganic pollutants are being dumped into our water, soil, and environment. Heavy metals interfere with biological functions such as growth, proliferation, differentiation, damage repair, and apoptosis. Multiple industrial, residential, agricultural, medical, and technical applications have resulted in their widespread presence in the environment, generating concerns regarding their possible consequences on human health and the environment. Heavy metals occur naturally and are vital to life, but buildup in organisms can render them hazardous. The most prevalent heavy metals that damage the environment include arsenic, cadmium, chromium, copper, nickel, lead, and mercury. Due to its capacity to travel large distances in the atmosphere, mercury, lead, and cadmium pose the most threat. Mining, industrial output (foundries, smelters, oil refineries, petrochemicals plants, pesticides production, chemical industries), untreated sewage sludge, and diffuse sources such as metal pipelines, traffic, and combustion byproducts from coal-burning power plants are all sources of heavy metals. Mercury, lead, chromium, cadmium, and arsenic have caused human poisoning more frequently than any other heavy metals. Apoptosis, development, proliferation, differentiation, damage healing, and apoptosis are all affected by heavy metals. Instabilities in the genome have been linked to heavy metals like chromium and cadmium, as well as arsenic.

Published: November 2024

En este trabajo se presentan los resultados de un estudio basado en la percepción de los jóvenes ante el cambio climático. Para ello se tomó como referencia los contenidos y competencias que figuran en la ficha docente de la asignatura relacionados con la geografía física para futuros docentes de educación primaria. Se realizó una intervención didáctica a un grupo de 79 hombres y mujeres que no cuentan con formación previa relacionada con los conceptos de sostenibilidad y cambio climático. Fue utilizada la metodología de aprendizaje basado en problemas puesta en práctica en tres sesiones de seminarios prácticos en los que se trataron las consecuencias del clima en la salud. Se obtuvo información del aprendizaje a través de un cuestionario elaborado ad hoc, y posteriormente se realizó un análisis de los datos obtenidos de carácter mixto, con un predominio de los datos cuantitativos sobre los cualitativos. Los resultados muestran que la mayor parte de los jóvenes aseguran sentir impotencia y entienden que el mundo sufrirá graves consecuencias causadas por el cambio climático. El 74% identifica la relación existente entre el cambio climático y la salud; y aseguran que son numerosos los factores que influyen en nuestro organismo una vez realizada la experiencia. Estos resultados alertan de la visión pesimista de los estudiantes a la hora de afrontar el cambio climático, proporcionando claves para mejorar su enseñanza, como la necesaria sensibilización y conocimientos relacionados con el medioambiente.

Hiring the Right CEO: The Link Between Narcissism and Innovation

Innovation is increasing in importance for companies — even more so when times are uncertain. The role of leadership, particularly that of a CXO, is pivotal in shaping an organization's innovation strategy and culture. Innovation, especially in large or multiproduct companies, has two different, and critical forms: exploitative innovation (enhancing existing products or services) and exploratory innovation (developing new products or services). Being able to simultaneously balance both forms of innovation is known as innovation ambidexterity. So what kind of leader is likely to exhibit this ambidexterity? The answer comes to us from a research study conducted by You and team, which explores how the personality traits of a CEO, specifically narcissism, affect a company's ability to manage and balance exploratory and exploitative innovation.1 This finding has critical implications for executive search, depending on the company's context for innovation, search committees and consultants should include a new criterion – the level of narcissism of CEO candidates
Wise Leaders, Wise Behaviors: How To Foster Them To Better Serve Organizations
Authors:   Professor in SPJIMR's General Management Department. Executive Director at Centre for Wisdom in Leadership., Tahora Surya , Sarin Shalini
Published: November 2024

At a time when the complexity of business challenges and the need for capable leaders is rising, less the 20% of those in management roles have a demonstrated talent for it.1 The traits of wise leadership behaviours – adaptability, experimental mindset, and integrity among others – are in high demand, but in short supply. The lack of these traits among leaders impacts organizations in multiple ways: lower profitability, poor innovation outcomes, high employee attrition and disengagement. To address these gaps, organizations must look to foster wise leadership and decision making in general. But this is not easy, as organizations have to navigate a maze of interpretations of 'competencies', with dozens of associated traits. To help navigate and simplify the journey, this essay draws upon a recently developed integrative model of wise behavior by Judith Glück and Nic M. Weststrate.2 The essay highlight key elements of this wisdom approach, which can serve organisations as a crucial pathway to develop wise behaviors in management
Does Market Share Drive Profits For An Organization? Not Always!
Authors:   Professor & Chairperson in the Marketing department at SPJIMR., Moorthy Janakiraman , Gupta Monika
Published: November 2024

CXOs, business heads and general managers are often required to track, report and explain changes in market share. And yet, market share gain may not always result in an increase in profits. This presents twin dilemmas: When does market share matter and is there a right way to measure it? Recent research by Abhi Bhattacharya, Neil Morgan, and Lopo Rego provides valuable insights into these questions. 1 Our essay illustrates these insights and gives managers a decision-centric approach to reveal under which contexts – business-to-business, business-to-consumer, products or services – market share matters for profits. We also highlight a critical insight about the metric: Share of revenues is a better predictor of profits than unit-based metrics related to market share, potentially impacting your decision-making process

The Controversy of the 1108 Alliance between Muslims and Crusaders of the East
Authors: Alzanki Jamal
Published: November 2024

Before the First Crusade forces marched to the east in 1097, Muslims were suffering internal strife between the Abbasid caliphate, dominated by the Saljūks, and the Fatimid caliphate of Egypt over Syria. In addition, the Saljūks themselves had endured internal discord since the death of the last great Sultan, Malik-Shāh, in 1092. The Crusaders would succeede in establishing their powers in the east within a few years and threatened Muslims in Syria and Mesopotamia. The kingdom of Aleppo would face a serious threat from the Crusaders of Antioch, while governor of Mosul (Jāwlī) in Mesopotamia would defie his lord the Saljūk Sultan Muhammad’s attempt to suppress him; however, the Crusaders of the east would suffere from internal discord as well. The principality of Antioch was threatening its Crusader neighbor, the County of Edessa. All this dissension would facilitate establishment of a strange alliance in 1108 that joined several different powers differing in religion and purpose. Jawli of Mosul convinced former leaders of Hilla in southern Iraq to join his party with the Crusaders of Edessa and Armenians of Kaysum. This party concentrated their power against the Crusaders of Antioch led by Tancred and his Muslim ally Ridwan of Aleppo. This analytical study traces the roots of that alliance and shows how it emerged.
Transformuota tapatybė: fizinio ir virtualaus pasaulio patirtys
Authors: Kačergytė Karolina , Liubinienė Vilmantė
Published: November 2024

Straipsnyje nagrinėjama prielaida, kad skaitmeniniame amžiuje vis daugiau laiko praleidžiant elektroninėje erdvėje blanksta riba tarp realaus gyvenimo ir gyvenimo internete bei perskyra tarp fizinės ir virtualios tapatybės. Tai reiškia, kad tapatybė skait­meniniame amžiuje skaidosi ir formuojasi iš naujo. Taigi tapatybės transformacija vyksta ne fiziniame ar virtualiame pasaulyje, bet realizuojama kontinuume tarp šių dviejų pasaulių. Straipsnyje bandoma pagrįsti, kad tapatybė, veikiama medijų skaitmeninėje kultūroje, tampa transmedijuota ir drauge išsklaidyta, epizodiška ir interaktyvi, kitaip tariant, ji virsta transmedijos produktu.
