Authors: Carlander Anders , Lekander Mats , Asmundson Gordon J. G. , Taylor Steven , Olofsson Bagge Roger , Lindqvist Bagge Ann-Sophie
Published: February 2022

Background

The COVID Stress Scales (CSS) assess health- and contamination-related distress in the face of a medical outbreak like the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Though the CSS is translated into 21 languages, it has not been validated in a Swedish national sample.

Aim

Our general objective is to provide a translation, replication, and validation of the CSS and test its convergent- and discriminant validity in relation to anxiety, health anxiety, depression, and stress in the general Swedish population. We also present latent psychometric properties by modelling based on item response theory.

Methods

Participants consisted of 3044 Swedish adults (> 18 years) from a pre-stratified (gender, age, and education) sample from The Swedish Citizen Panel. Mental health status was assessed by validated instruments, including the CSS, PHQ-4, SHAI-14, and PSS-10.

Results

Results indicate that our Swedish translation of CSS has good psychometric properties and consists of 5 correlated factors.

Discussion

The CSS is useful either as a unidimensional or multidimensional construct using the CSS scales to measure key facets of pandemic-related stress.

Conclusions

The findings support the cross-cultural validity of the CSS and its potential utility in understanding many of the emotional challenges posed by the current and future pandemics.

Introduction

While antiretroviral therapy (ART) coverage for pregnant women has undergone steady scale-up, Nigeria’s final mother- to-child transmission of HIV (MTCT) rate remains unacceptably high at 10%. This study aimed to determine final outcomes (MTCT rates) and their correlates among HIV-exposed infants (HEI) in nine states and the Federal Capital Territory, Nigeria.

Methods

This retrospective, cross-sectional study was conducted at 96 primary, secondary and tertiary health facilities supported by the Institute of Human Virology Nigeria. Data was abstracted for a birth cohort of HEI born between October 30, 2014 and April 30, 2015 whose 18–24 month final outcome was assessed by October 30, 2016. Only infants with a six-week first DNA PCR result, and a rapid HIV antibody test result at age 18 to 24 months were included. Multivariate logistic regression (adjusted odds ratios [aORs]) evaluated for predictors of HIV positivity at ≥18 months.

Results

After testing at ≥18 months, 68 (2.8%) of the 2,405 exposed infants in the birth cohort were HIV-positive. After a minimum of 18 months of follow-up, 51 (75%) HIV-positive infants were alive on ART; 7 (10%) had died, 5 (7.3%) were lost to follow-up and 5 (7.3%) were transferred out. Rural maternal residence, lack of maternal ART/ARV prophylaxis, mixed infant feeding and infant birth weight less than 2.5 kg correlated with an HIV-positive status for infant final outcomes.

Conclusion

The final HIV positivity rate of 2.8% is encouraging, but is not population-based. Nevertheless, supported by our findings, we recommend continued programmatic focus on early access to quality prenatal care and maternal ART for pregnant women, especially for women living with HIV in rural areas. Furthermore, implementation of nationwide sensitization and education on six-months’ exclusive infant breastfeeding with concurrent maternal ART should be strengthened and sustained to reduce MTCT rates.

were synthesized using Schiff base, S-benzyl-β-N-(p-dimethylaminophenyl)methylene dithiocarbazate
(HL), which was synthesized by the condensation of equimolar concentrations of
p-(dimethylamino)benzaldehyde and S-benzyldithiocarbazate. The metal complexes and dithiocarbazate
ligands were confirmed by elemental study and spectroscopic techniques such as 1H and 13C NMR,
electronic absorption spectroscopy, molar conductance, infrared techniques. The magnetic susceptibility
and UV-vis spectral data suggest that the metal complexes (ML2)X2 show octahedral geometry. The
bioactivity of ligand and its metal complexes were investigated by the well diffusion method against
one fungus (Candida albicans) and three pathogenic bacteria (E. coli and B. cereus and S. aureus).
Bioactivity analysis revealed that the (ML2)X2 complex of Fe(II) and Fe(III) shows enhanced
antibacterial activity than free ligand. Comparatively, among all metal complexes, the Fe(III) complex
shows higher antibacterial activity and moderate antifungal activity.

Published: February 2022

Seaweeds are one of the most diverse bioreserves, including a wide range of bioactive compounds
with various properties and functions. In present study, the antioxidant and anticancer activity of
brown seaweed Turbinaria ornata was extracted using two different solvents like aqueous and ethanol.
Higher concentrations of bioactive compounds were observed in ethanolic extract of T. ornata (EETO)
in comparison to aqueous extract of T. ornata (AETO). The ethanolic extract showed potent antioxidant
properties for DPPH and hydroxyl radical scavenging. The IC50 value of the ethanolic extract was
found to be 48 and 50 μg/mL for DPPH and hydroxyl radical scavenging assay, respectively. Human
breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7) cells treated with different concentrations of the ethanolic extract
showed a dose-dependent increase in cell inhibition. The LC50 value of the ethanolic extract was
calculated to be 115.19 μg/mL and cell morphology was observed under an inverted phase-contrast
microscope. As a result, based on the present findings, it is suggested that T. ornata extract might be a
promising antioxidant and anticancer therapeutics.

Published: February 2022

Present work analyzes the kinetic study of mineralization during electro-oxidation on Ti/DSA
(Ta2O5-Ir2O5) and combined electro-oxidation and electro-coagulation on stainless steel anode of an
antidiabetic drug metformin hydrochloride (MET-HCl) in synthetic wastewater over a specific charge.
Four different reaction orders (0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2) were tested using the integral analysis method by
plotting TOC concentration terms over specific charges to determine the exact rate kinetics for the
mineralization. The effect of applied current density was evaluated at 50 ppm of sodium sulphate as
supporting electrolyte, and the effect of supporting electrolyte concentration was also assessed at a
current density of 0.93 mA/cm2 in 50 ppm MET-HCl solution. As a result of (i) electro-oxidation
experiments on MET-HCl, carried out on Ti/DSA anode, and (ii) combined electro-oxidation and
electro-coagulation experiments carried out on stainless steel anode, based on the R-squared value of
the mineralization curves, the first-order reaction rate was proposed.

Published: February 2022

The aim of this study is to assess the pesticides residues in wheat and soil samples from Ghaziabad
city of India. Herein, wheat and soil samples were collected from fields in Ghaziabad city, India from
2017 to 2019 and analyzed on GC-MS/MS & LC-MS/MS using QuEChERS method of extraction.
One or multiple pesticide residues were detected in the wheat and soil samples. Cypermethrin,
cyahalofep butyl and chlorpyrifos were frequently detected in the soil samples. Concentrations of
carbendazim and chlorpyrifos in the paired soil and wheat samples exhibited significant positive
correlations. The monitoring results showed that the concentrations of some pesticides in the wheat
flour samples exceeded the FSSAI MRL standard, which implies possible intake risks via consumption.
Hence, dietary risk assessments were conducted. The resulting hazard quotient (HQ) values fell within
3.89-7.25 indicates that dietary risk of studied crop is low and their current residue concentrations in
wheat would be safe for human consumption.

Published: February 2022

A new polymeric membrane sensor for Cd(II) ion based on methyl acrylate-acrylonitrile-methyl
methacrylate terpolymer as membrane carrier has been synthesized via atom transfer radical
polymerization (ATRP) method at 60 ºC. Preliminary investigation with the membrane exhibited
promising selectivity for Cd(II) ion with a slope of 32.02 mV/decade and the same could be estimated
in the concentration range of 1 × 10-6 − 1 × 10-1 M in the working pH range of 4-6 for up to 90 days.
The potentials generated across the membrane were reproducible and the response time was less than
one minute. The electrode works well even in a partially non-aqueous media. The effect of surfactant
and detergent on the working of Cd(II) selective electrode was also studied. A decrease in potential
was observed in the presence of appreciable amount of surfactant and detergent. Addition of plasticisers
was found to greatly improve the performance of membrane, best results being obtained with the
membrane ratio (NaTPB:TP:TBP::1:100:06), exhibiting a working concentration range of 1 × 10-6 − 1
× 10-1 mol L-1 with a short response time of 10 s. The proposed sensor shows significantly good
selectivity toward Cd(II) ion in comparison with some alkali, alkaline earth, transition and heavy
metal ions. It was successfully employed as an indicator electrode in potentiometric titration of
cadmium(II) ions against EDTA solution.

AGAMA DALAM PROSES KEBANGKITAN ADAT DI INDONESIA: Studi Masyarakat Rencong Telang Kerinci Jambi
Authors: Zainuddin Mahli , Permata Ahmad Norma
Published: February 2022

After the fall of the New Order, Indonesia witnessed a political revival of traditions. Four factors have been identified as that lead to the revival: first, orchestrated campaigns by local and international NGOs to protect traditional communities’ access to lands and natural resources; second, as efforts by local elites to fill the power vacuum after the centralist new order government ended; third, struggles by local groups that suffered marginalization during the previous regime to reclaim their rights; finally, efforts by local groups to adopt alternative social norms in organizing their communities.  However, a more detailed description on how these revivals carried out is difficult to find. This article put forward such a description, in the case of the Rencong Telang community in Kerinci, Jambi. After almost two decades of decline, the authority of Adat can finally be restored after the corrupt elites have been replaced. Interestingly, it was personal religiosity that served as the criterion to replace them, while leadership accountability always failed to do so. This finding will also enrich the discussion on the relationship between adat and religion beyond conflict and harmony.Pasca runtuhnya Orde Baru, peran adat mengalami kebangkitan politik di berbagai daerah. Paling tidak ada empat faktor yang dianggap mempengaruhi kebangkitan tersebut: pertama, kampanye LSM internasional yang mendorong hak-hak masyarakat adat; kedua, sebagai upaya mengisi kekosongan otoritas lokal pasca runtuhnya rezim Orde Baru; ketiga, sebagai upaya kelompok minoritas yang merasa tertindas selama Orde Baru; dan terakhir, adat sebagai alternatif membangkitkan idealisme tatanan sosial--namun tidak banyak penjelasan bagaimana proses kebangkitan tersebut terjadi. Kebangkitan otoritas adat di kalangan masyarakat Rencong Telang, Kerinci, Jambi menjadi kasus yang menarik. Setelah hampir dua dekade mengalami kemerosotan--seiring dengan kemerosotan ekonomi yang diiringi perubahan politik akibat desentralisasi--Adat kehilangan otoritasnya karena tokoh adat terjebak pragmatisme politik dan instrumentalisasi adat untuk pragmatisme politik berujung pada saling pecat. Berbagai upaya konsolidasi dilakukan, dan baru berhasil setelah dilakukan penegakan sanksi adat secara tegas. Menariknya, yang menjadi kriteria penegakan sanksi adalah ketaatan beragama. Sehingga agama menjadi kriteria kredibilitas lembaga Adat. Ini sekaligus menjadi tambahan pengayaan bagi kajian relasi adat dan agama yang selama lebih banyak memperdebatkan konflik dan harmoni.
RETORIKA IMAJI FILANTROPI ISLAM MODERN DALAM PRANGKO AMAL MUHAMMADIYAH
Authors: Sofia Adib
Published: February 2022

In pre-independence era until several decades after, stamps become very precious things either functionally or conceptually. At that time stamps functioned not only as the proof of payment for sending letters or documents but also as the fundraising tool or usually called charity stamps. Muhammadiyah charity stamps issued in Dutch East Indies period have become the modern Islamic philanthropic icons. Until their 80 years of existence in 2021, these stamps are still being discussed and performed in various media. Therefore, this writing is trying to reveal the meaning of stamps in several stages and in various contexts. First, in terms of denotative image, it can find the detailed description of visual and textual form of the charity stamps. Second, in terms of connotative rhetoric, it can find the meaning of stamps as (i) the confession of Dutch East Indies Government to Islamic movement; (ii) the professionalism of Islamic philanthropy; (iii) humanitarian actions from general public for general public; and (iv) a form of spirituality and social worship. Third, on the mystical stage it can find the meaning of (i) collective culture of sustainability to manage the philanthropy in organized manner and (ii) collective culture of sustainability to live religion happily. These three of meanings have answered why the existence of Muhammadiyah charity stamps is still being appreciated until today.

Authors: Hakim Muhammad Lukman , Qurbani Indah Dwi , Wahid Abdul
Published: February 2022

The author looks at the inverse social reality looking at Indonesia’s rankings. In fact, in 2009, Indonesia was classified as a country with full freedom. Saiful Mujani (2019) believes that the decline in freedom in Indonesia is strongly related to religious or minority intolerance. Researchers see in East Java there are still cases related to acts of tolerance. The study applies Van Der Walt’s model for religious tolerance (2014) which has seven key indicators, those (a) minimizing religious differences, (b) inclusivity, (c) exclusivity and selfishness, (d) openness to change, (e) faith and respect for others, (f) religious beliefs, and (g) recognizing the freedom of others. The data for this study was collected by conducting surveys in 38 regions in East Java. The number of survey respondents was 402 and the study found that the level of religious tolerance in East Java in 2020 was 73.9 (out of 100). This is proof that religious tolerance in East Java is categorized as “good”. The highest score is on the first indicator which is 82 and the lowest score is on the sixth indicator which is 63.4. This finding is expected to be a government policy recommendation for its development program in East Java.

This paper aims to reveal what is the true moral message in the sentence Isjudu> li A>dama. Therefore, the research focuses on the fragments of these verses in Surah al-Baqarah verse 34 and al-Kahfi verse 50. Understanding the moral message in every verse of the Koran is very important to know. It aims to make the message of the Koran relevant today. In this study, the analysis was carried out on two tafsir works, namely Tafsir Al-Mishbah by M. Quraish Shihab and Tafsir Al-Azhar by Hamka. Both are products of Indonesian interpretation, they use the tah{lily method of interpretation, with the pattern of adabi ijtima'i. However, from the results of the author's analysis using qualitative research methods and literature, and supported by comparative studies with several aspects of the object of study, the conclusion is that the interpretation in the Al-Misbah Tafsir; specifically on the two verses above, it is more comprehensive than the explanation of the Tafsir Al-Azhar. And also, in the Tafsir Al-Misbah, a more dominant moral message is found, in addition to mutual respect, respect and respect as fellow beings, Al-Baqarah verse 34 can be the basis for the obligation to respect those who are knowledgeable. [Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengungkap apa sebenarnya pesan moral pada kalimat Isjudu> li A>dama. Maka dari itu, penelitian terfokuskan pada penggalan ayat tersebut yang ada dalam surat al-Baqarah ayat 34 dan al-Kahfi ayat 50. Memahami pesan moral dalam setiap ayat al-Quran sangat penting untuk diketahui. Hal tersebut bertujuan untuk merelevansikan pesan al-Quran di zaman sekarang. Dalam penelitian ini, analisis dilakukan pada dua karya tafsir, yakni Tafsir Al-Mishbah karya dari M. Quraish Shihab dan Tafsir Al-Azhar karya dari Hamka. Keduanya merupakan produk tafsir nusantara, sama sama menggunakan metode tafsir tah{lily, bercorak adabi ijtima‘i. Namun dari hasil analisis penulis menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dan kepustakaan, serta ditunjang dengan studi komparasi/muqaran dengan beberapa aspek obyek kajian dihasilkan kesimpulan bahwa tafsiran dalam Tafsir Al-Misbah; khusus pada dua ayat di atas, lebih komprehensif dibandingkan penjelasan Tafsir Al-Azhar. Dan juga, dalam Tafsir Al-Misbah ditemukan pesan moral yang lebih dominan, selain harus saling memuliakan, menghormati dan menghargai sebagai sesama makhluk, Al-Baqarah ayat 34 dapat menjadi dasar tentang kewajiban menghormati orang-orang yang berpengetahuan.]
Corrección por exposición de las velocidades de viento medidas en dos estaciones de Cuba
Authors: Aldereguía Sánchez Camila , Ballote Álvarez Javier , Fernández Lorenzo Ingrid , Elena Parnás Vivian Beatriz
Published: February 2022

La velocidad básica de viento es determinante en el diseño de obras de ingeniería frente a la acción del viento. Esta velocidad se obtiene a partir de datos de estaciones meteorológicas que cumplen con determinados requerimientos de ubicación y se estima por diferentes métodos estadísticos. En ocasiones las estaciones no cumplen con las condiciones ideales de ubicación, por lo que se hace necesario hacer correcciones a los datos medidos. El objetivo de este trabajo es obtener un factor de corrección para las velocidades del viento medidas en condiciones de ubicación no ideales y comparar las velocidades básicas obtenidas con los valores propuestos para la región de Cuba en estudios internacionales. Se seleccionaron dos estaciones meteorológicas con diferentes rugosidades y se determinaron las velocidades básicas a partir del Método de Tormentas Independientes (MIS). La rugosidad se determinó mediante la aplicación del método de las clasificaciones y el método morfométrico con uso de imágenes del satélite LandSat 8. Los resultados muestran que las velocidades básicas de viento corregidas son similares por ambos métodos. La comparación con los estudios internacionales solo evidenció una adecuada correspondencia en una de las estaciones, por lo que debe ampliarse el estudio a mayor número de estaciones.

Published: February 2022

En este artículo se hace una evaluación de los impactos ambientales que se podrían derivar del uso de huecos mineros como rellenos sanitarios de RCD en canteras del distrito de Barranquilla, aplicando adecuadamente la “Guía para la rehabilitación de huecos mineros con residuos de construcción y demolición (RCD)” del Ministerio para la Transición Ecológica de España. Esta ha sido implementada exitosamente en España. Por objetivos afines en la gestión de RCD y similitudes entre canteras españolas y colombianas, se presume que podría ser adaptada en Barranquilla como ciudad representativa de Colombia. Se elaboró un Scoping como aproximación a los efectos e impactos ambientales y se utilizaron una matriz de Leopold modificada y el método EPM para la evaluación. El proyecto resultó ambientalmente viable. Los impactos positivos más significativos son: mejoramiento de condiciones fisicoquímicas y propiedades mecánicas del suelo y formalización en la disposición de RCD. Los impactos negativos más preponderantes son: afectaciones a la calidad del aire y posible contaminación de cuerpos de agua. Este artículo, junto con la Guía referida al principio, deben servir como soporte para entidades ambientales competentes responsables de tomar medidas legales y técnicas sobre la disposición de RCD en el distrito.
Estudio comparativo de coeficientes de presión normativos y experimentales en cubiertas de naves industriales
Authors: Amador Núñez Manuel Alejandro , Fernández Lorenzo Ingrid , López Llanusa Alejandro , Elena Parnás Vivian Beatriz
Published: February 2022

Todos los años ocurren fallas en cubiertas de edificaciones bajas debido a la acción de los vientos. Algunos investigadores opinan que estas pérdidas pudieran se ocasionadas por insuficiencias en las normativas para el cálculo de las edificaciones ante este tipo de cargas. En este artículo se comparan los coeficientes de presión de las cubiertas de varias edificaciones bajas que han sido ensayadas tanto en túneles de viento como por métodos numéricos (modelación computacional de fluidos) por diversos investigadores, con los coeficientes que resultarían de aplicar el Eurocódigo EN1991-1-4 sobre esas mismas estructuras. Esta investigación tiene el propósito de identificar las posibles discrepancias entre el Eurocódigo EN1991-1-4 y los ensayos experimentales, como consecuencia de la no consideración de las variaciones de la intensidad de turbulencia y de la inclinación de la cubierta en la obtención de los coeficientes de presión en la normativa. Del análisis de resultados se obtuvo que la aplicación del Eurocódigo EN1991-1-4 conduce a la subestimación de la carga de viento en la mayor parte de la cubierta, mientras que, en la esquina correspondiente al borde de ataque del viento, la carga obtenida es mayor que la resultante de los ensayos.

Published: February 2022

Tras la firma del acuerdo de paz entre el Gobierno colombiano y las FARC-EP se destinaron alrededor del país algunos Espacios Territoriales de Capacitación y Reincorporación (ETCR) como parte del proceso de reincorporación de los excombatientes, cuyo desa-rrollo y consecución ha tenido grandes dificultades para alcanzar lo pactado en el marco del proceso de paz (demoras, negligencias, rutas claras de reincorporación, seguridad, tensiones políticas). Con base en un trabajo de campo en dos ETCR, uno en la vereda La Fila y otro en El Oso, en el departamento del Tolima, conversamos con algunos firmantes del Acuerdo de Paz y registramos a nivel audio-visual las maneras de apropiación e intervención de estos espacios donde convergen integrantes del partido Comunes, instituciones nacionales, extranjeras y comunidades vecinas. Este trabajo pro-pone una perspectiva sobre los ETCR como guetos de integración y exclusión de los excombatientes. Además, destacamos de qué manera la convivencia en los espacios ha tejido modos de habitar los ETCR expresados en las adecuaciones al espacio, órdenes y símbolos otorgados por firmantes de paz en proceso de reincorporación.

Este artículo presenta una revisión crítica en torno a la resigni-ficación de dos prácticas culturales, identitarias y literarias, alabaos y currulaos, rostros de la palabra cantada, en el contexto del conflicto armado que ha afectado desproporcionalmente a las comunidades afrocolombianas. Método: la investigación sigue la perspectiva de lo que nombro la hermenéutica del retorno, une perspectiva interpreta-tiva crítica sobre la presencia histórica de las comunidades afro en perspectiva de la descolonización. En primer lugar, se introduce una discusión respecto al carácter literario de estas dos creaciones afro. Luego se procede a la contextualización de estas prácticas como agencias de la identidad étnico-racial y cultural afro. Después, me adentro en el reconocimiento de los impactos del conflicto armado en los territorios a partir de la lectura y escucha detenida de las líricas, principalmente tres canciones a ritmo de currulao, de la agrupación de chirimía Rancho Aparte, Esteban Copete y su Kinteto, Canalón de Timbiquí y la orquesta Herencia de Timbiquí. Asimismo, se retomarán algunos alabaos del álbum titulado Voces de resistencia, apoyado por la Universidad ICESI y la Fundación Ford, y realizado por las Cantaoras de Pogue. Finalmente, mediante este escrito pre-tendo visibilizar la capacidad de reinvención de las comunidades para hacer de estas prácticas dispositivos de memoria, proceso de concienciación, denuncia y sanación mental.

Covid-19 cases in Indonesia tend to increase, and several studies show that there is still a lack of public awareness on implementing health protocols. Public spaces have a greater potential for transmission than private spaces, so it is important to ensure the implementation of health protocols. The purpose of this study was to determine the potential for community behavior on implementing health protocols in public spaces, as well as how to improve efforts that need to be made. This type of research is descriptive with a mixed method quantitative and qualitative, and its applied research. This research was conducted using a survey technique involving 2,894 respondents spread throughout Central Java. The sample is probability sampling, determined by the technique of multistage random sampling and cluster random sampling. The instrument of this research is a semi-closed questionnaire which is given through google form media. The analysis in this study uses descriptive statistical techniques, as well as qualitative analysis of simultaneous models. This study concludes that public areas must be watched out for because they have the potential to create a fairly high level of the crowd, but the implementation of the covid-19 health protocols has not been optimal, especially tourist and entertainment places, public transportation, and traditional markets. Several places with high potential for visits, such as workplaces, places of worship, culinary places, and socio-religious celebrations/rituals, also need to improve the implementation of health protocols.

In Indonesia, the Basic Health Research Data (Riskesdas) 2018 shows the prevalence of emotional mental disorders as indicated by symptoms of depression and anxiety for ages 15 years and over reaches around 6.1% of the total population of Indonesia or the equivalent of 11 million people. This number has the potential to continue to increase, because people's lives have changed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Mental health is an issue that cannot be ignored. Changes in people's behavior that have become the new normal such as work from home, study from home and even a number of religious activities have also switched to using live streaming. Thus, the house becomes the center of activity of a family which has the potential to cause mental health disorders. This study aims to find out how students who are running online lectures are aware of mental health problems. The research method was conducted by survey method with random sampling technique. The results of the research show that there is a tendency for respondents to self-diagnose due to incomplete understanding of mental health issues. Therefore, it is hoped that the service strategy for improving the quality of mental health at UPN "Veteran" Yogyakarta can be realized and internalized into the education curriculum.
