Authors: Wai Tin Lay , Maung Chaw Su , Lwin Swe Mar Myint
Published: December 2024

Background: Motivation status of teaching faculties in medical field can influence the students’ academic achievement, therefore, developing the tools to measure of it is essential. The study was conducted to develop and validate the questionnaire that can assess the motivation status of teaching faculties from medical and allied universities.
Methods: An exploratory sequential mixed-methods study was used. The qualitative part developed a questionnaire by two rounds of Delphi expert panels. The quantitative part validated the questionnaire using both exploratory (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Purposive sampling method was used for Delphi and total (661) participants for quantitative portion was selected randomly from medical and allied universities. First, 78-item questionnaire was generated based on Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory model. Two expert panels ensured the questionnaire’s content validity and finally, developed a 68-item questionnaire. Factor analysis was conducted to validate the questionnaire with separate samples for EFA (n=331) and CFA (n=330).
Results: EFA supported the four factors structure with 35 high loading items and which extracted 54% of the variance. Cronbach's alpha coefficient and reliability values received (more than 0.7) for all constructs. The CFA further confirmed the construct, convergent and discriminant validity of the questionnaire measuring motivation status with RMSEA=0.059, CFI=0.924, TLI=0.914, SRMR=0.057.
Conclusions: The final question set consisted of 35 items; communication (11 items), support (11 items), self-actualizations (9 items) and basic needs (4 items) which was shown to be a reliable and valid tool to be measure the motivation status among teaching faculties from medical and allied universities in Myanmar.
Balanço do PNE (2014-2024): As políticas de ação afirmativa na educação superior
Authors: Carreira Denise , Heringer Rosana
Published: December 2024

Com base em resultados de pesquisa coordenada pelas autoras, o texto aborda os desafios do Plano Nacional de Educação (PNE) (2014-2024) e recomendações para o novo PNE referentes às ações afirmativas na educação superior. Apesar dos inúmeros avanços, sobretudo após a Lei de Cotas (Lei n. 12.711, 2012), destacam-se três grandes desafios: a baixa institucionalização dessas políticas nas universidades, ainda consideradas de responsabilidade de instâncias vinculadas à assistência estudantil e/ou à igualdade étnico-racial; a redução expressiva do financiamento da educação superior decorrente das drásticas políticas de ajuste fiscal, que sufocaram as condições de permanência estudantil nos últimos anos; e a insuficiente abordagem sobre as ações afirmativas no Sistema Nacional de Avaliação da Educação Superior.
Creation of a polylingual teacher’s personal brand in teaching foreign languages through social media channels
Authors: Korableva Elizaveta Denisovna
Published: December 2024

Social media platforms have gradually changed the users’ perception of their functions. Communication between users has transformed into a global trend to acquire new knowledge and find educators to fulfill the users’ requests. The presence of polylingual teachers in a social media landscape requires specific preparation of accounts to share the ability to speak and teach several languages. This paper aims to describe the set of competencies of a polylingual teacher displayed through social media channels that create a personal brand in teaching foreign languages. Personal brand is a process of creation and promotion of unique individual characteristics to be shared with the target audience. Methods used in this research include comparative analysis and method of logical inference of relevant scientific literature published over the past 5 years on this topic and 52 social media accounts of polylingual educators. This allowed us to identify sub-competences (communicative, general cultural, psychological, pedagogical) of a teacher and the content algorithm (personal information, experience as a learner, cultural corner, driving forces of learning foreign languages, teaching methods and aids, further actions) in which sub-competences, forming a personal brand, are distributed in social media channels. The practical implication of the paper focuses on the structured representation of the individual through the content division of an account to attract new subscribers as well as online and face-to-face clients for learning several languages. The value of the study lies in its ability to show a teacher’s philosophy, education, backstage of a teaching process and learners’ results to obtain new students in conditions of a private school sector.
Deconstruction of a text in network communication: Hypertext as a new mechanism of social communication
Authors:   Saratov State University, Mogilevich Bronislava R.
Published: December 2024

The article presents the analysis of the transformation of texts as mechanisms of social communication, in particular in digital social
reality. The transformation of social reality is updated in various spheres of human life – social communication, self-identification, sociocultural
codes and rituals. Any text (statement), being a social action, is an institutional construct and correlates with the structure of the social reality of
its generation. The sociological perspective of the study of texts is based on the combination of two methodological approaches - solidaristic and
critical, which, however, assume the primacy of social structure and the secondary nature of language (text). In the context of the methodology of
symbolic interactionism, it is shown that the meaning of any text is determined by the sociocultural context. The theory of speech acts considers all
texts as sets of social actions (speech acts), the adequate interpretation of which is determined by their compliance with established social norms
and traditions. The modern social reality of the digital community is characterized by uncertainty, instability and many risky situations. Under
these conditions, all texts as social constructs also changed their functions. This is especially true for the texts that provide social communication
in the virtual reality of the Internet. The shift in the communicative function of the text towards pragmatics led to the changes in text structures
and the emergence of a new format – a hypertext. The specificity of hypertext is actualized in its nonlinearity, fragmentation and uncertainty.
Network social communication, as an indirect environment remote from the communicants in time and space, operates with hypertexts containing, in addition to the primary text, evaluation comments, links and allusions. This property of hypertexts (intertextuality) provides large-scale
social communication between countless numbers of communicators. The social consequences of the functioning of hypertexts are to ensure
and maintain social equality between users of the Internet space.
Trends in tourism supply and demand in the micro-regions of the Southern Great Plain region
Authors: Kovács Helga , Ritter Krisztián , Komarek Levente
Published: December 2024

According to the Statistical Office of the European Union (EUROSTAT), the Southern Great Plain region was one of the poorest regions in the European Union in 2022, and tourism development could be one of the breakthrough points. The Southern Great Plain region has a special role for spas and related health tourism, and its rich historical heritage provides a good basis for cultural tourism. The main purpose of the research was to examine the tourism situation in the micro-regions of the Southern Great Plain region, using a complex tourism performance indicator and cluster analysis. Based on the results of the complex tourism performance indicator, the Gyulai micro-region performed the best in the region. The results of the indicator show that tourism is not only concentrated in the tourist areas defined by the government in the region. These micro-region are thus excluded from the target areas for tourism investment. In the future, it would be important to examine the situation of areas that are not included in the defined tourism areas and to integrate them into the tourism target areas, since tourism is a means of balanced development of the areas and can contribute to the convergence of disadvantaged areas.
Demographic and Regional Labour Market Analysis of the Historic Market Towns of Greater Cumania, Hungary
Authors: Mezei Martin , Nagyné Molnár, PhD Melinda
Published: December 2024

The subject of my research is the study of the settlements with a rural-urban past in the Greater Cumania (Hungarian name of the region: Nagykunság). This historic small region in the Northern Great Plain region is a region with many economic and social problems. My research covers six settlements, all of which have a rural-urban past, but only five of them have city status today: Karcag, Kisújszállás Kunhegyes, Kunszentmárton and Túrkeve. Kunmadaras is a municipality.
The focus of my research is on the common economic and cultural heritage of these settlements and their unique development paths. The common economic and cultural heritage is the past as a field town, and the heritage that the Kuns who founded the settlements not only had an administration independent of the county system, a patent status, but also shared a common culture. Grater Cumania as a historical region is no longer a functional unit. Starting from common foundations, the six settlements have responded differently to the challenges of the past decades. The extent to which each of them has successfully responded to the economic and social challenges they have faced is faithfully reflected in their economic and social relations.
The aim of my research is, on the one hand, to review the current balance of the settlements with a rural-urban past in Greater Cumania, both individually and in comparison with each other, in order to identify future opportunities, possibilities and threats. On the other hand, my aim is also to examine what the common Greater Cumanian heritage means for the settlements that have taken different development paths and rely on different spatial relations. Can a cultural product, a brand, be built out of it?

A tanulmány az EU-s innovációs eredménytábla humán erőforrás és információs technológiák alkalmazására irányuló mutatókat vizsgálja, és megvilágításba helyezi az oktatás kulcsszerepét.
Property Investment Measurement (IAS 40) And Quality of Financial Statements of Listed Pharmaceutical Firms in Nigeria
Authors: Olalekan Fadairo Ibukun , Siyanbola Tunji Trimisiu , Aderibigbe Amos Adejare , Oyewunmi Adenike Abibat
Published: December 2024

Pharmaceutical companies in Nigeria encounter several unique challenges when applying IAS 40 for the measurement of investment properties. These challenges are largely due to the complexity of the standards, management's potential manipulation of financial results, and Nigeria's unique economic and regulatory context. This study investigated the impact of investment property measurement under IAS 40 on the financial reporting quality of listed pharmaceutical companies in Nigeria. A cross-sectional survey design was employed, collecting data from selected pharmaceutical companies using structured questionnaires. The study analyzed responses from 95 employees through multiple regression analysis with SPSS 25. The results indicated that the cost method had a positive insignificant effect on the reliability of financial statements (β1 = 0.009; p = 0.532 > 0.05). In contrast, the fair value method for measuring investment property demonstrated a positive and significant effect on the reliability of financial statements in Nigerian pharmaceutical companies (β2 = 0.203; p = 0.032 < 0.05). Similarly, while the cost method had a positive effect on the comparability of financial statements (β1 = 0.051), this relationship was not statistically significant (p = 0.423 > 0.05). However, the fair value method showed a significant positive effect on the comparability of financial statements (β2 = 0.355; p = 0.017 < 0.05). The study recommends that Nigerian pharmaceutical firms adopt the fair value method for measuring investment properties to enhance financial statement reliability and comparability, promoting more transparent and accurate financial reporting.

Published: December 2024

An experiment was carried out during 2014-2015 at the Experimental Farm, Department of Horticulture, Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat to study the effect of biofertilizer consortium on yield, quality and soil health of french bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). The experiment was laid out in a randomized block design (RBD) with seven treatments and replicated thrice. The treatments were T1: FYM 20 t/ha+ NPK @ 30:40:20 kg/ha (RDF), T2: Enriched compost @ 3 t/ha, T3: Enriched compost @ 3 t/ha + Consortium, T4: Vermicompost @ 3 t/ha, T5: Vermicompost @ 5 t/ha, T6: Vermicompost @ 2.5 t/ha+ Consortium and T7: Consortium (Rhizobium + Azotobacter + Azospirillum + PSB). The performance of french bean was greatly influenced by different treatments. Application of recommended dose of fertilizer in T1 recorded significantly higher yield attributing characters viz., pod/plant (28.57), pod length (15.07 cm), pod girth (0.96cm), seed/pod (6.73), pod yield(11.27 t/ha) and harvest index (67.67%) respectively. Similarly, T1 also recorded minimum dry matter content (6.87%); crude fibre content (7.15%) and maximum crude protein content (22.63%). Among the organic treatments, T3 reflected the maximum for all the yield attributing characters which was closure with T1; while T4 recorded significantly maximum ascorbic acid content (11.67 mg 100g/FW). Further, T3 also recorded the best for soil parameters viz., bulk density (0.83 g/cm3), pH (5.33), P2O5 (47.40 kg/ha), microbial biomass carbon (630.33ìg/g/24h), dehydrogenase activity (711.50 ìg TPF/g/24h) and phosphomonoesterase activity (442.43ìg p-nitrophenol/g/h) respectively. T5 recorded highest organic carbon (0.68%); while T1 also revealed maximum N and K (220.56 and 119.31kg/ha) content.

Published: December 2024

Background: Principal component analysis (PCA) is a biometrical technique or a dimensionality reduction method where large number of measurements could be replaced by fewer measurements without significant loss of information. PCA is a multivariate methodology and helps to eliminate redundant traits and transforms original group of variables into another group known as principal components. It can be used with success when characteristics are correlated. PCA can help in accurate selection of superior animals. Methods: The present study was carried out in HD-K75 pigs maintained at ICAR-All India Coordinated Research on Pig, AAU, Khanapara, Guwahati, Assam, India. A total of 13 economic traits viz. age at sexual maturity (ASM), age at first fertile service (AFFS), age at first farrowing (AFF), farrowing interval (FI), litter size at birth (LSB), litter weight at birth (LWB), litter size at weaning (LSW), litter weight at weaning (LWW), teats number (TN), body weight at Birth (BWB), body weight at weaning (BWW), body weight at 5 month (BM5) and body weight at 8 month (BM8) were considered. Data were collected from a total of 164 sows. Data belonged to 8 years from 2015 to 2023. The principal component analysis was performed using the factor module in SPSS 24. Result: Factor analysis with varimax rotation uncovered four principal components, collectively explaining 84.18% of the total variance. The first, second, third and fourth principal component accounted for 29.71%, 29.33%, 12.683% and 12.452% of the variance. High component loading was found for LSW and LWW in first component, LSB for second component, BW5 for third component and BW8 for fourth component respectively. The communality values ranged from 0.980 (ASM and AFFS) to 0.608 (BWW). These findings indicate that PCA can serve as a valuable tool in breeding programmes, allowing for a significant reduction in the number of economic traits to be used in selection procedure.
Raising a Child with Autism Spectrum Disorder: Examining Parental Factors
Authors: Barklı Ayça , Doğan Aysun
Published: December 2024

Autism spectrum disorder is a neurodevelopmental disorder that is quite common today. Although being diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder causes children to face with various difficulties in their lives, raising a child with autism spectrum disorder also poses several difficulties for the parents and families. Studies showed that parents raising children with autism spectrum disorder may perceive their parenting as inadequate and may experience stress, depression and anxiety due to their children's health, behavioral, social and emotional problems. Parents cannot devote enough time to themselves and therefore report intense fatigue. At the same time, raising a child diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder also differentiates the relationship between parent and child. Within the family system, marriage and sibling relationships are also affected and parents report high divorce rates due to difficulties experienced within the family. Lack of access to sufficient financial resources and time also causes various difficulties within the family. All these difficulties negatively affect parents' quality of life. The necessity of interventions specific to the needs of parents in all these areas is inevitable. In this review study, it is aimed to examine difficulties parents experience with their children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder and, to discuss the limitations of studies examining the impact of autism spectrum disorder on parents.
Intersecting Exclusion in Digital Cash and Voucher Assistance in Nigeria
Authors: Faith Becky
Published: December 2024

BASIC Research focuses on the intersection between social protection and humanitarian approaches in providing assistance in protracted crises. Digital systems can offer benefits in these contexts, but can also increase vulnerabilities. Delivering cash and voucher assistance (CVA) at scale using digital tools in challenging contexts is complex. A lack of digital and financial infrastructure, and the digital exclusion experienced by intended beneficiaries from marginalised communities, are critical issues.

This Policy Briefing looks at the different drivers of digitisation from the perspectives of aid recipients, humanitarian, and government actors in North East Nigeria. It explores the obstacles these actors face in delivering programmes in an inclusive and accountable way.

Le stress thermique environnemental dans l’espèce bovine : 2. Effets physiologiques, pathologiques, comportementaux, alimentaires, immunitaires et sur la production laitière
Authors: Hanzen Christian , Delhez Pauline , Hornick Jean-Luc , Lessire Françoise , Gherissi Djellel Eddine
Published: December 2024

Contexte : Le stress thermique se traduit par divers effets sur la physiologie générale de l’animal. Objectifs : Cette revue de littérature a pour objectif de décrire les effets physiologiques, pathologiques, comportementaux, alimentaires et immunitaires du stress thermique et son impact sur la production laitière. Méthode : À partir de la base PubMed, elle s’est concentrée dans un premier temps sur les articles de synthèse puis a été complétée par les références des articles identifiés. Résultats : La température corporelle mesurée par des capteurs placés en divers endroits du corps dépend davantage du THI que de la température environnementale. Elle dépend du niveau de la production laitière, de la race et du rythme circadien. L’augmentation de la fréquence respiratoire (> 60 mouvements/min)et le halètement qui en résulte tout comme l’augmentation de la quantité d’eau ingérée et la réduction de l’ingestion alimentaire constituent les principales manifestations d’un stress thermique. Il se traduit également par une perte d’état corporel et une augmentation du pH sanguin. Il entrave le développement néonatal du fait de la réduction de l’ingestion alimentaire et de l’altération du système immunitaire. La diminution de la production laitière est une autre conséquence importante d’un stress thermique qui s’accompagne par ailleurs d’une diminution de la concentration en protéines, matière grasse et lactose du lait. Diverses altérations comportementales sont également observées : diminution de la position couchée et augmentation des stations debout, recherche d’ombre et d’eau, etc. Les effets immunitaires du stress thermique s’observent davantage avant qu’après le sevrage. Chez la vache en lactation, il entraîne une augmentation du taux cellulaire du lait et une diminution de la concentration plasmatique en cytokines et en immunoglobulines. Enfin, un stress thermique induit une augmentation de la prévalence de pathologies telles que l’acidose du rumen, l’acétonémie, les boiteries, les mammites ou encore l’infestation parasitaire. Conclusions : L’augmentation de la température environnementale nous invite à prendre davantage conscience de la multiplicité de ses effets directs ou indirects responsables à court, moyen et long terme et de ses conséquences économiques. L’augmentation constante des recherches conduites pour objectiver les effets observés permettront aux responsables de la santé animale de mettre en place les stratégies adéquates pour en limiter les effets.

Requirements for military goods under the legislation of the Russian Empire of the 19th century
Authors: Kovaleva Natalia V. , Zozulya Alexandr A.
Published: December 2024

Ensuring the state’s security is objectively related to providing its force structures with weapons and equipment. The intensive development of warfare methods and means imposes new requirements on the characteristics of military goods, which necessitates the improvement of technical and legal regulation in this area. These factors focus on the study of the existing experience in the legal regulation of the quality of defense products. The study aims to test the hypothesis that the establishment of requirements for military goods at the legislative level was mainly through technical-legal norms. In the course of the study, systemic, structural-functional, historical-legal and formal-legal methods are applied. The legislation of the Russian Empire of the first half of the 19th century in force in this area is analyzed. The unsystematic and fragmentation of certain statutory instruments containing regulatory requirements for military goods is revealed. It is established that the legislator paid special attention to detailing the requirements for the detection of product defects during their acceptance by the state customer. It is concluded that various methods have been used to formulate technical and legal norms.
Gang as a type of organized group and its difference from an armed group guilty of committing a robbery
Authors: Chapurko Tatyana M. , Kartavchenko Victoria V. , Nazarenko Alina E.
Published: December 2024

It is analyzed which individuals are subject to criminal sanctions for committing attacks by certain types of organized groups. Reasons are identified which explain why organized crime poses a significant threat to both individual members of society and the state as a whole. Signs have been identified that can distinguish banditry from robbery. It is determined that one of the essential characteristics of individuals’ group as a gang is stability, although this is not defined at the legislative level. It is unclear on the basis of what criteria the court should de-termine the presence or absence of this characteristic in specific cases of criminal offenses committed by mul-tiple individuals. Therefore, it is concluded that it would be beneficial to establish a definition for stability or its characteristics in law. By implementing this measure, ambiguity in law enforcement’s understanding of this as-pect would be eliminated.
Classroom Incivility Going Viral on Social Media: One Professor’s Encounters
Authors: Anuik Jonathan
Published: December 2024

The advent of social media expands the domain of the standard classroom. The outcome is that incidents of conflict, also known as classroom incivility, exist not only within the conventional classroom. They can take place on social media platforms. In this paper, the author draws on his experience with a complaint about an assignment in one of his classes that surfaced on X (formerly Twitter), feedback on the assignment that took the shape of a story on Instagram, and his response to the activity in the two venues. He draws on the concept of classroom incivility and reflects on how this term, named to describe conflict in in-person classrooms, is relevant on social media platforms.
Dinâmicas de ocupação e domínio no espaço público
Authors: Morais Vitor de Souza , Mello Fernando Antônio Oliveira , Amaral Camilo Vladimir de Lima
Published: December 2024

Os espaços públicos abertos idealizados no Brasil no decorrer do século XX demonstram de diferentes formas as forças e vontade política atreladas a propostas de planejamento e requalificação urbana. O Estado Novo (1937-1945) representa um momento de adensamento do discurso pela modernização do país. Este contexto embasou a criação de Goiânia como nova capital de Goiás e como uma imagem e identidade desejada para o território brasileiro. Seu planejamento urbano buscou privilegiar, através de seu emblemático traçado de três grandes avenidas convergentes, uma grande Praça Cívica central que abrigaria o conjunto de edificações para a sede administrativa do governo estadual, concebido como um lugar para uso, sociabilidade e domínio do espírito público. Nessa perspectiva o artigo visa debater a condição da Praça Cívica enquanto espaço público e seus impactos no convívio social no contexto do século XXI. Essa reflexão parte da problemática dos espaços públicos concebidos pela nova política, como lugares representantes dos ideais, de ordem e de modernidade desejados para o país, que parecem, sobretudo, exaltar a dominância do poder político. As antigas apropriações, as transformações urbanas e as dinâmicas sociais – que ocorreram tanto no centro como na praça – levantam o questionamento sobre como o processo de globalização e a cultura da individualidade agiram a partir da idealização deste espaço. Essa relação pode ser discutida não apenas através das modificações no uso e na materialidade, mas também no sentido de um planejamento monumental que privilegia diferentes ideias de poder e modernidade. A discussão verifica como o local apresenta apenas esse domínio público, e se são observados outros atravessamentos em seu uso. Para tal se apoia no método lefebvriano regressivo-progressivo, utilizando a história como ferramenta para uma discussão da atualidade através de suas origens, compreendendo o caráter atual como parte de uma processualidade. Assim, busca-se destacar como há uma mistura de tempos históricos que moldam estruturas socioespaciais conflituosas no decorrer do tempo e como as práticas de uma rotina urbana contribuem nessas transformações.
Dueto Ja Ne e Steve Lá
Authors: Fenerich Alexandre Sperandéo
Published: December 2024

O texto trata de duas peças do compositor Rodolfo Caesar, Dueto Je Ne e Steve Lá, construídas a partir do procedimento do compositor norte-americano Steve Reich da micro-defasagem entre trilhas de áudio. Apesar de utilizar da mesma técnica, todavia, Caesar cria outros sentidos, seja a partir da relação deste procedimento com os materiais de origem, seja, no caso de Steve Lá, por acoplar imagens visuais ao substrato sonoro. Os sentidos criados com o material apropriado pelo compositor - a voz do artista Joseph   (caso de Dueto Ja Ne) e imagens e a música do DVD Broadway (caso de Steve Lá) serão analisados. Finalmente, será marcada a vinculação do Dueto Ja Ne a um desenho do artista visual Milton Machado que possui caráter de uma partitura, de cuja leitura proveio a ideia de apropriação do procedimento de Reich.
Considerações kantianas sobre a representação, a estética, o belo e o sublime
Authors: França Carlos
Published: December 2024

Kant (1724-1804) introduziu o termo estética na Crítica da Razão Pura, referindo-se às formas puras da intuição sensível a priori: espaço e tempo. Essas formas, parte da dimensão transcendental, condicionam a recepção das intuições sensíveis, organizadas internamente pelo tempo e externamente pelo espaço. Para Kant, o tempo subordina todos os objetos como fenômenos da sensibilidade. Ele concebeu o termo “estética transcendental” para descrever a estrutura pré-existente que permite a recepção das intuições sensíveis, diferenciando-se da crítica do gosto. Kant afirma que o conhecimento exige sensibilidade (recepção de representações) e compreensão (formação de conceitos aplicados a essas intuições). Contudo, apesar da centralidade da noção de representação, ele não forneceu uma definição completa, utilizando-a em partes da Lógica Transcendental e da Estética Transcendental. Este estudo analisa as condições de sua formulação e difusão nas críticas kantianas.
No juízo estético, Kant explora por que ele não gera conhecimento, impossibilitando sua universalização objetiva. A afirmação de algo como belo busca sua universalidade, mas a discordância alheia pode gerar frustração, destacando a subjetividade do gosto estético.
A segunda parte aborda a Analítica do Belo e a Analítica do Sublime, evidenciando rupturas e inovações trazidas pela Crítica da Faculdade do Juízo. Analisa-se o belo em relação ao prazer e à dor, e o papel dos juízos determinante e reflexivo na estética do belo. A estética do sublime, abrangendo suas formas matemática e dinâmica, é explorada em suas conexões com natureza, moral e o informe.
Leitura visual de Introdução à Pedra de Rodolfo Caesar
Authors: Garcia Denise Hortência Lopes
Published: December 2024

Trata-se de um trabalho de análise visual da obra Introdução à Pedra de Rodolfo Caesar, utilizando, para isso, o programa Acousmograph. Esse aplicativo funciona como um gráfico no qual se transcreve o tempo, as durações e as frequências. É uma leitura pessoal da obra, pois as imagens visuais geradas não traduzem as imagens sonoras, mas buscam traduzir uma escuta pessoal da obra. A leitura não é um gráfico abstrato, mas cheia de referências sonoras e não sonoras que procurei traduzir em formas e cores que remetem a objetos, elementos e sentimentos. Proponho que esse seja um método válido de análise musical, confiando na intermodalidade entre som e imagem.

Toxoplasmosis is a disease caused by the parasite Toxoplasma gondii, with high prevalence in Southeast Asia, including Indonesia. This infection can cause brain damage and is associated with diseases such as epilepsy. This study aims to analyze the occurrence of seizures in patients whose mothers have a history of T. gondii infection. Toxoplasmosis during pregnancy can be transmitted to the fetus via the placenta, causing severe fetal tissue damage and potentially triggering neurological disorders like epilepsy. Pathophysiological mechanisms include increased blood-brain barrier permeability, excitotoxicity, and damage to glutamatergic receptors and mitochondria. In Indonesia, the prevalence of toxoplasmosis ranges from 40%-60%, with risk factors including contact with stray cats and consuming raw meat. This study utilizes a literature review method to investigate the relationship between maternal T. gondii infection and the incidence of epilepsy in offspring. The findings suggest that maternal T. gondii infection during pregnancy significantly increases the risk of epilepsy in offspring. Effective public health measures are crucial for raising prevention awareness and improving access to comprehensive prenatal care.

This research aims to analyze the process of forming the 1945 NRI Constitution from several perspectives, including the political, economic and social historical background, the role of figures in the process, as well as the process of drafting and ratifying the 1945 NRI Constitution. At that time, before the proclamation of independence in 17 August 1945, Indonesia experienced political resistance from figures such as Sukarno and Mohammad Hatta, as well as social and economic dissatisfaction from the Dutch colonial system. In the 1945 Draft Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia (UUD NRI), nationalists played an important role in formulating the vision of the country through the Research Institute for Preparatory Efforts for Indonesian Independence (BPUPKI) and the Preparatory Committee for Indonesian Independence (PPKI). The BPUPKI and PPKI conferences became the main forum for the ratification and promulgation of the 1945 Constitution on 18 August 1945 and became the starting point for the newly independent country. This research method uses a historical approach which involves analysis of various relevant primary and secondary sources. It is hoped that the results of this research will provide a better understanding of how the process of forming the 1945 NRI Constitution took place, which focuses on the background to its formation, the roles of the figures involved in its formulation, as well as the drafting process until the 1945 NRI Constitution was ratified.

Section design is an important process for designing reinforced concrete structures because of the existence of factors such as bearing capacity and cost. After defining the initial cross sections for reinforced concrete elements, reinforcement amounts are calculated within the framework of certain rules and regulations. In the classical method, optimum cost and reliable structure can be designed by trial and error. Designing with the classical method is quite time-consuming. As in different fields, metaheuristic algorithms are employed to civil engineering applications to reach the optimum solution. In this study, unlike other examples from the literature, the optimum cost design of reinforced concrete beam cross-section was done, adding torsional moment to bending moment and effects of shearing force through the use of the JAYA algorithm. The optimum cost design of a reinforced concrete beam section under the effects of torsional moment, bending moment and shear force is performed. The design is done according to the rules specified in ACI 318 (Building code requirements for structural concrete), as it is well-known and used in many international projects. For the purpose of this study, cross-sections of 10 different reinforced concrete beam cross-sections were designed under 5 different loads for 2 different concrete classes through MATLAB software, with the aim of finding the optimum beam cross-section. A reinforced concrete beam is designed under different torsional loads and for different concrete classes and it is aimed to find the optimum beam cross-section. It shows the effect of torsional force on reinforced concrete beam cross section and reinforcement by using different torsional loads. It was observed that the algorithm used tends to approach the optimum result, increasing the area of concrete with lower unit cost or reducing the distance between stirrups. It was concluded that Jaya algorithm performs effectively with respect to optimizing reinforced concrete beams. The algorithm used can be applied to different reinforced concrete elements.

This study investigated the mechanical performance of lightweight photocatalytic marbelite (LPM). In the production of LPM, titanium dioxide (TiO2) and various fiber additives were used to impart self-cleaning properties to the LPM with photocatalytic effect. In the study, fibers were added to the LPM mix at different ratios (0%, 0.5%, 1%) and unit weight, ultrasound transmission rate, bending, splitting tensile and compressive strength tests were carried out on these specimens. The mixture was prepared with perlite and polyester resin and enriched with TiO2 and fiber additives. Perlite was used as an aggregate in the LPM and lightweighting properties were added to the specimens. The experimental results show that increasing the fiber content significantly improves the mechanical strength of the LPM. The improvement in bending strength reached 60%, while in compressive strength it reached 25% and in splitting tensile strength it reached 35%. With the addition of TiO2, the bending strength of LPM increased by 15%, while the compressive strength increased by 12% and the splitting tensile strength increased by 7%. These ratios were higher with increasing fiber content. These results suggest that LPM, which provide environmental benefits with their photocatalytic properties and improved mechanical performance, can be more effectively used in industrial applications.
