Estimation of Median Lethal Concentration (LC50) of Pyrethroid and Carbamates Pesticides using the Nematode Caenorhabditis elegans to Predict Mammalian Acute Lethality (LD50)
Authors: Rana Krishna , Gautam Priyanka
Published: September 2023

Present study was aimed to estimate the median lethal concentration of most extensively used pesticides, pyrethroid (transfluthrin and cyfluthrin) and carbamates’ pesticides (methiocarb and propoxur to deter pests, using a free-living nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans as model organism. The median Lethal Concentration (LC50) was calculated by Log-dose/ probit regression line method, and Worms showed 24-hours lethality at concentrations 37 mg/l, 61 mg/l, 63 mg/l, and 48 mg/l for transfluthrin, cyfluthrin and methiocarb, propoxur respectively on NGM. Structural and toxicidal differences may has been for Differences in the median lethal concentration. LD50 and LC50 values data was compare with mammalian oral LD50 and calculated LC50 using C. elegans respectively. C. elegans found to be the more convenient for generating LC50 values analogous to the mammals LD50 values. So, C. elegans has great promises in the area of toxicological research.

Gotu kola is one of the medicinal plants that is widely used because of its various nutritional content. In general, the cultivation only uses inorganic fertilizers, which have long-term effects that are not good for the environment. The use of organic fertilizers is an effort to produce high-standard products. Rabbit urine liquid organic fertilizer and goat manure are alternative types of fertilizer that can be given. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the response of giving liquid organic fertilizer of rabbit urine and goat manure and their interaction with the growth and yield. The study used a Factorial Randomized Block Design (RBD). The first factor was rabbit urine liquid organic fertilizer (LOF) with a concentration of 0, 2, and 4%. The second factor was goat manure with doses of 0, 37, and 75 g/polybag. The results showed that applying rabbit urine (LOF) and goat manure increased the growth and yield of gotu kola. Application of 2% rabbit urine LOF significantly increased stalk length compared to controls. Gotu kola plants given 37 g/polybag of goat manure produced stolons that were significantly longer than those treated with goat manure 75 g/polybag and had significantly heavier roots than other treatments. The interaction of rabbit urine LOF and goat manure application had no significant effect on all observed variables.

The world population is proliferating, and the proportion of people living in urban areas is also increasing. It is challenging to achieve the SDGs, especially SDG 11, which aims to make cities and communities more inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable. Meeting the needs of urban residents, such as housing, public infrastructure, a clean environment, security, jobs, and other basic needs to live comfortably in a city with limited resources, is a problem. Sustainable cities are becoming increasingly important today to facilitate the growth of sustainable cities that integrate economic, sociocultural, environmental, ICT/transverse, and urban dimensions. Effective evaluation of urban sustainability is essential for sustainable development. Banten Province is one of the regions that has committed to achieving the SDGs. This commitment is contained in Banten Governor Regulation Number 47 of 2019 concerning the Regional Action Plan for the Sustainable Development Goals of Banten Province for 2020‒2022. Therefore, this study aims to assess and map the sustainability status of cities in Banten Province using Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) analysis and processed with PROMETHEE (Preference Ranking Organization METHods for Enrichment Evaluation). The number of criteria for a sustainable city in 2012 was 82 criteria and 109 criteria in 2022, where the highest number of criteria is on the sociocultural and economic dimensions. The PROMETHEE results show that the cities in Banten Province with the best sustainability levels are Tangerang City and South Tangerang City. City governments with low sustainability status or experiencing a decrease in sustainability status need to improve the performance of sustainable city indicators so that development can be sustainable.

Published: September 2023

The lack of competence of principals in resolving conflicts in schools is of particular concern because it is related to the progress of an educational institution. This study aims to develop models and research products that are useful for education and literacy used by school principals in managing conflict in schools. The research method used is the research and development of the ADDIE model. The research subjects were linguists, materials experts, and learning design experts to validate research products, while to test user responses, the subjects selected were the principal of SMA PGRI Metro City, SMA Ma’arif 1 Metro City, and SMA Muhammadiyah 02 Metro City. Data collection was done using questionnaires, and the results were analyzed qualitatively and descriptively. This research went through several stages, namely: 1) the model development stage, which was carried out at the analysis stage, namely analyzing the characteristics of the school; 2) the feasibility of a prophetic-based conflict management model product; and 3) the use of the prophetic conflict management module through user response testing. As a result, prophetic conflict management is in the very good category to use. The format and layout aspects of the conflict management module fall into the very appropriate category. In the aspect of writing, the Prophetic conflict management module is in the very appropriate category. In the aspect of formulating the outline of the material, the principal must improve conflict management skills by participating in training or developing conflict management capacity in schools. The implementation of the principal’s role in creating a harmonious and comfortable school organizational climate can be realized if he can demonstrate fair and responsible leadership behavior.

Authors: Lloydon C. Bautista Teodoro , Irish Marryza G. Bragais Janine , Amalia Fitri Tin
Published: September 2023

This article examines the challenges facing democracy in Southeast Asia, including the decline of the liberal democratic model, the rise of populism, and the retreat of globalization. It identifies five key trends that have led to the deterioration of the democratic ethos in the region and highlight the emergence of strong populist leaders who promise change through radical reforms. The article argues that it is necessary to explore the emergence of new political governance models that are uniquely Asian and lie outside the perceived colonial shadows of North America and Western Europe. This study focuses on four emerging market countries in Southeast Asia. It uses qualitative research methods to examine how these countries are coping with the decline of liberal democratic principles and institutions in the region. The study aims to provide an overview of the possible outcomes of new political governance models as the area moves forward. The review highlights that while the decline of liberal democratic principles and institutions in Southeast Asia has hurt social and economic progress in the region, emerging market countries in the region have taken steps to address the decline by strengthening democratic institutions, increasing investment and trade, and strengthening vital economic sectors such as tourism and information technology. In addition, the review also discusses the potential for a new political governance model to emerge that is distinctly Asian and in keeping with the culture and history of each country in the region.

Published: September 2023

Political awareness is very important to be built from an early age in the younger generation. It encourages them to participate and contribute to their nation. This study aims to see how far the effectiveness of citizenship education is in an effort to increase political awareness and national political identity for the younger generation. This study uses a quantitative approach to the type of evaluation design research model. The evaluation instrument used was context, input, process, and product (CIPP), while the data analysis method used descriptive quantitative data analysis. The results of this study are that Pancasila and Citizenship Education (PPKn) has a vision and mission to develop students into human beings who have a sense of nationality and love for the motherland, through the process of accepting and carrying out the teachings of their religion; have honest behavior, discipline, responsibility; and are polite, caring, and confident in interacting with family, friends, and teachers. The findings in this study are that the components in citizenship education are materials taught to students contained in the book Pancasila and Citizenship Education, which includes components to fulfill indicators of forming students’ political awareness, and citizenship education learning strategies have also used a strategy of involving students in the environment where they live. To increase participation, use strategies for activities in schools to increase tolerance and awareness as citizens. A strategy is carried out involving several relevant stakeholders such as election administrators and the police. The formation of national identity in the citizenship education component is that material taught to students to enhance the formation of national identity has not been included in the material being taught; therefore, learning strategies to achieve the formation of student national identity have not been carried out.

Published: September 2023

Climate change is considered to be the most serious challenge to global development, with its widespread, unanticipated consequences disproportionately affecting the poorest and most vulnerable. Immediate action to curb climate change and deal with its repercussions is crucial in achieving all the SDGs. Southeast Asia is one region that is particularly sensitive to the effects of climate change. Policymakers began to take an action, as the consequences of environmental issues and climate change became more severe. Key environmental regulations, such as framework laws, safeguard measures, and air and water quality standards, have been implemented throughout the region. Muslim democratic countries differ systematically both in the degree of Islamic political party concentration in the parliament and in the party discipline. Brunei Darussalam, Indonesia, and Malaysia have very different political systems, ranging from absolute monarchy, in which the Sultan of Brunei Darussalam rules almost every aspect of society’s life, to democratic deficit in Indonesia, in which the government’s methods or operations fall short for satisfying democratic norms. Although the three Muslim countries share divergences in democracy state, but the countries’ sustainable development policies and overall SDGs score of realization remain similar during the period of 2001-2021.

Published: September 2023

This descriptive research examines the impact of using religious ideology in electoral politics on interfaith harmony and tolerance in Indonesia, focusing on the 2024 presidential election. This research aims to investigate how political candidates use social media to mobilize religious ideology and its effect on public opinion and electoral outcomes. Secondary data were collected through a comprehensive literature review, analyzing recent elections, content analysis of social media posts, patterns in social media engagement, the effectiveness of existing interfaith dialogue initiatives, and the role of misinformation, hate speech, and hoaxes related to religious ideology in electoral politics. The study found that the use of religious ideology in electoral politics has the potential to negatively impact harmony and tolerance among religious communities in Indonesia. Social media plays a crucial role in the mobilization of religious ideology by political candidates. The combination of religious ideology and social media usage may exacerbate existing interfaith tensions and further polarize the political landscape in Indonesia. The research concludes by recommending that citizens need to have a moderate understanding of religion, understand digital literacy, and always be wise in using social media with a filtering culture before sharing.

Social Status and the Behavior of Palm Farmers in Community Life
Authors: Fatmawati Ika , Isnaeni Ahmad
Published: September 2023

Social status is a level or the position of a person in a society as derived from the level of education, level of employment, level of income and wealth and expenses. Social status is often directly proportional to the behavior of rice farmers. For instance, The spread of agricultural innovations in the countryside depends on the nature of the innovation and the type of societal decision-making. If individual innovation decision-making is more dominant, the positive relationship between social status and the rice field farmer’s behavior is acceptable, but if collective decision-making is more dominant, the spread of innovation depends on the suitability of the rice field farmer’s innovations for village communities. This study aims to look at the determinants of social status and observe the relationship between social status and the behavior of rice farmers in their social liveslife in Taman Fajar Village, Purbolinggo District, East Lampung Regency. This study used a qualitative research method with a descriptive approach. The population were rice farmers in this area. Data collection was done using observation, interviews, and documentation techniques. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant influence on the social status and behavior of rice farmers in society. This means that the higher the yields the rice farmers obtain, the more positive impact they can have on society, one of which is giving alms to people in need.

Pre-weaning socialisation with non-littermates in piglets: reduced weaning stress when regrouped with unfamiliar piglets post-weaning?
Authors: Du Dongyue , Toribio Jenny-Ann
Published: September 2023

PICO question
In piglets in indoor housing systems does pre-weaning socialisation with non-littermates compared to no pre-weaning socialisation with non-littermates result in lower weaning stress when regrouped with unfamiliar piglets post-weaning?
 
Clinical bottom line
Category of research question
Treatment.
 
The number and type of study designs reviewed
Nine papers were critically reviewed. All of them were controlled trials, of which two were randomised control trials.
 
Strength of evidence
Moderate.
 
Outcomes reported
In terms of behavioural indicators of weaning stress, piglets socialised with non-littermates during lactation showed less aggressive behaviours (in the six papers that investigated aggression) and fewer skin lesions (in the six out of seven papers that investigated skin lesions) than non-socialised piglets when regrouped with unfamiliar piglets post-weaning. One of two papers showed that the cortisol level of socialised piglets had a smaller increase from pre-weaning to post-weaning level than non-socialised piglets. Four out of five papers that investigated average daily weight gain (ADG) found that the difference between socialised and non-socialised piglets in ADG was insignificant.
 
Conclusion
Based on behavioural indicators, there was strong evidence suggesting that pre-weaning socialisation with non-littermates could reduce aggression and skin lesions when regrouped with unfamiliar piglets post-weaning. However, due to the weak evidence for the physiological indicator and growth performance, the effect of pre-weaning socialisation on weaning stress was inconclusive.
 
How to apply this evidence in practice
The application of evidence into practice should take into account multiple factors, not limited to: individual clinical expertise, patient’s circumstances and owners’ values, country, location or clinic where you work, the individual case in front of you, the availability of therapies and resources.

Hace un recorrido por dos de los grandes problemas existentes en la sociedad colombiana: un Estado débil, desarticulado y que no hace presencia en todo el territorio nacional; pero adicionalmente, que ha sido capturado por grupos con diversos intereses, de tal forma que sus instituciones no estén al servicio de la población en general, sino del interés particular de pequeños grupos. En segundo lugar, la carencia histórica de una ciudadanía activa que se apropie de su responsabilidad como constructora de su entorno, que no espere soluciones mesiánicas ni caudillistas, sino que entienda que la solución está en sus propias manos.Así mismo, ESTADO y CIUDADANÍA. Dos falencias, una alternativa, ofrece, como alternativa ante esa crisis histórica, la formación de un sujeto político, que actúe con responsabilidad y sea corresponsable de la vida en sociedad. Un sujeto político que se sienta y actúe como soberano, con poder construir la sociedad que está pensada en la Constitución Política de 1991. En este orden de ideas permite la apropiación de los principales conceptos y categorías políticas para la formación del ciudadano que demanda este país.

Simpulan penelitian ini yaitu Kota Makassar, Kabupaten Gowa dan Kabupaten Maros merupakan kontributor utama kejadian dengue di Provinsi Sulawesi Selatan selama tahun 2017 sampai 2021. Meskipun daerah tersebut saling berbatasan, namun hubungan curah hujan terhadap kejadian dengue terlihat berbeda.
Fatos e (e)feitos da fala divergente
Authors: Figueira Rosa Attié
Published: September 2023

Este artigo tem por objetivo analisar a produção da criança como um estado de língua marcado pela heterogeneidade, domínio que convida a levar em conta a teorização saussureana, já que não se pode penetrá-lo sem "tocar com o dedo o jogo do mecanismo linguístico" (CLG: p. 192). Dedicado aos fatos linguísticos bem como a seus efeitos no diálogo com o interlocutor (predominantemente um adulto), procuramos, através de uma observação longitudinal explorar, no quadro da elaboração teórica de De Lemos (2002), o que é a fala da criança, enquanto acontecimento de um sujeito capturado pela ordem da língua, movimento pleno de inovações. Algumas são previsíveis, outras, inusitadas, elas tocam limites consolidados da língua, num funcionamento que se manifesta em ocorrências que podem surpreender os ouvintes, qualificadas até como engraçadas (o riso como efeito). A evidência empírica disponível (morfologia verbal e nominal) mostra que a reflexão que se depreende da doutrina teórica de Saussure participa da variação transbordante tanto quanto da perda, esquecimento estrutural dessa variação – um declínio nas formas destoantes, no percurso da criança, podendo atestar uma ordem relativamente estável. Estável, porém, não imutável. No que diz respeito a flexão verbal, indagamos sobre o lapsus linguae da fala adulta, visto como irrupção momentânea de uma combinação esquecida da língua.
A bugonia nas Geopônicas 15.2 e o tratamento do material técnico latino
Authors: Muniz Liebert Abreu
Published: September 2023

O tratado bizantino composto em 20 livros, as Geopônicas, oferece um conjunto de informações detalhadas sobre o procedimento conhecido no mundo clássico e tardio como bugonia, noutras palavras, uma espécie de folclore popular para o fenômeno de restauração de uma colmeia a partir de um boi morto. Dois textos antigos tratam da bugonia em mais detalhes: as Geórgicas de Virgílio, no Livro 4.284-318, e as Geopônicas, atribuídas a Cassiano Basso, no Livro 15.2; outros textos trazem menções pontuais, os mais conhecidos são os tratados de Varrão e Columela. O presente artigo pretende explorar os traços da bugonia no texto bizantino, analisando seus aspectos constitutivos, seus recursos composicionais, vocabulares, e o tratamento dado ao material da literatura técnica latina do período clássico, representados na tradição varroniana e virgiliana. As Geopônicas, a despeito das dúvidas quanto à sua autenticidade, são um importante testemunho de um interesse crescente, em meados dos séculos 9º e 10º, em uma nova abordagem histórica da Antiguidade, a saber, de fazer compilações de saberes de autores diversos do mundo antigo. Nesse sentido, o tratado bizantino, escrito em grego, demonstra a ainda marcante associação– ainda que em processo de adaptação escolástica – entre formas e temas técnicos, científicos, com formas e temas literários, marcas da herança do mundo clássico no mundo tardio. Essa associação, estranha para os modernos, influenciados pelo Romantismo do séc. 18º, como observaram Perutelli (2010) e Trevizam (2014), constitui-se a intercomunicação entre as formas de pensar e de escrever natural dos textos antigos que versaram sobre alguma matéria técnica.

How to quantify blue carbon sequestration rates in seagrass meadow sediment: geochemical method and troubleshooting
Authors: Johannessen Sophia C.
Published: September 2023

Seagrasses take up carbon dioxide and transform it into organic carbon, some of which is buried in meadow sediments. Very high carbon burial rates have been claimed for seagrass meadows globally, and international protocols have been developed with a view to awarding carbon offset credits. However, recent geochemical work has shown that a misunderstanding of how marine sediment buries and processes organic carbon has led to overestimates of at least an order of magnitude. Common blue carbon methodology does not adequately account for bioturbation or remineralization in surface sediment, and there is often a conflation of standing stock with ongoing burial. To determine accurate seagrass carbon burial rates requires the following steps: (1) Determine the sediment accumulation rate below the surface mixed layer, using 210Pb and porosity; (2) Determine the burial concentration of organic carbon; (3) Multiply the sediment accumulation rate by the buried % organic carbon; (4) If excluding allochthonous carbon burial, use biomarkers to determine the proportion of seagrass-derived organic carbon; and (5) Account for the offset due to the burial of carbonate formed inside the meadow. Seagrass meadows provide valuable habitat and protect coastlines from erosion. They can also play a role in short-term carbon sequestration. However, if carbon credits are awarded based on inflated estimates and used to offset emissions elsewhere, the net effect could be an increase in carbon dioxide emissions to the atmosphere.

Authors: Gutierrez Alyssa , Pucket Brenton , Engevik Melinda A.
Published: September 2023

Bifidobacterium species are integral members of the human gut microbiota and these microbes have significant interactions with the intestinal mucus layer. This review delves into Bifidobacterium -mucus dynamics, shedding light on the multifaceted nature of this relationship. We cover conserved features of Bifidobacterium -mucus interactions, such as mucus adhesion and positive regulation of goblet cell and mucus production, as well as species and strain-specific attributes of mucus degradation. For each interface, we explore the molecular mechanisms underlying these interactions and their potential implications for human health. Notably, we emphasize the ability of Bifidobacterium species to positively influence the mucus layer, shedding light on its potential as a mucin-builder and a therapeutic agent for diseases associated with disrupted mucus barriers. By elucidating the complex interplay between Bifidobacterium and intestinal mucus, we aim to contribute to a deeper understanding of the gut microbiota-host interface and pave the way for novel therapeutic strategies.

This study aims to investigate the effect of various financial factors that affect the consumer product sectors in the Indonesia Stock Exchange earnings persistence. The study employed purposive sampling, the data were collected from the 2011-2020 annual financial statements, and analyzed by utilizing panel data regression. In the consumer cyclical industry, firm size and accrual amount negatively influence earnings persistence. In contrast, the impact of fluctuating cash flow, volatile sales, and debt levels was negligible. In the non-cyclical consumer sector, cash flow volatility positively influenced earnings persistence. However, debt levels and accrual amounts had a negative influence, while sales volatility and firm size had no effect. These findings suggest that the determinants of earnings persistence vary by industry and that different financial factors may affect earnings persistence differently. The results may help Indonesian stakeholders in comprehending the factors that affect the sustainability of revenues in the consumer products industry.

Published: September 2023

The ultimate goal of this paper was to examine the degree of elasticity between two variables, namely, agricultural credit and agricultural growth, in Angola in the period 2003–2022. Time series data were fitted into the ARDL test using various econometric techniques such as the ADF stationarity test, Granger causality and the ordinary least squares method as well as a vector error correction model (VECM) to analyze the relationship between agricultural credit and agricultural economic growth, showing a causal relationship. Both the impacts through elasticities and the optimal point existing in this relationship were estimated. It was concluded that the impact of agricultural credit on agricultural GDP was 14.41%. Granger causality shows signs of a positive linkage between agricultural credit and agricultural GDP. However, there is a causal relationship between agricultural credit and agricultural GDP, in a unidirectional aspect. This result is consistent with most of the earlier studies reviewed in the literature, confirming that credit-oriented monetary policies can boost economic growth and, consequently, development in Angola. It is important for agricultural credit systems to be designed in a way that ensures equitable access, fair interest rates, and appropriate risk management mechanisms. Additionally, monitoring and evaluation mechanisms should be in place to assess the environmental and social impacts of credit programs on agricultural sustainability. It is worth noting that this is a first-of-a-kind study on the matter of the Angolan credit experience, specifically for the agricultural sector. Angola is still searching for a sustainable credit model that could be used as a catalyzer to boost growth and contribute to economic development.

Published: September 2023

In this paper, a variety of machine learning techniques, including Artificial Neural Networks, Decision Trees, Support Vector Machines, Random Forests, Logistic Regression, and three gradient boosting techniques (XGBoost, LightGBM, and CatBoost), were employed to predict customer churn in the telecommunications industry using a publicly available dataset. To address the issue of imbalanced data, various data sampling techniques, such as SMOTE, the combination of SMOTE with Tomek Links, and the combination of SMOTE with Edited Nearest Neighbors, were implemented. Additionally, hyperparameter tuning was utilized to optimize the performance of the machine learning models. The models were evaluated and compared using commonly used metrics, including Precision, Recall, F1-Score, and the Receiver Operating Characteristic Area Under Curve (ROC AUC). The results revealed that the performance of the models was enhanced by the application of hyperparameter tuning and the combined data sampling methods on the training data.Overall, after applying SMOTE, XGBoost achieved impressive ROC AUC scores of 90% and an F1-Score of 92%. When SMOTE was combined with Tomek Links, LightGBM performed exceptionally well, achieving a ROC AUC of 91%. XGBoost continued to outperform with an F1-Score of 91% and an ROC AUC of 89%. SMOTE with ENN led XGBoost to outperform other techniques with an F1-Score of 88% and an ROC AUC of 89%. However, LightGBM exhibited a performance decline of 4% in F1-Score and 1% in ROC AUC compared to exclusive SMOTE usage. Lastly, after Optuna Hyperparameter Tuning, CatBoost excelled, achieving an impressive F1-Score of 93% and an ROC AUC of 91%.

Published: September 2023

In recent years the study of the teacher-student relationship in the teaching-learning processes in physical education has had great emphasis. Previous studies have shown that the use of the Spectrum of teaching Styles can enhance intrinsic motivation, enjoyment, adherence to physical activity and physical activity levels in children and adolescents. The present study aims to assess if a physical education (PE) intervention based on the variations in teaching styles, with reference to production ones, can also have positive effects on physical fitness. The sample involved 4 primary school classes (n = 124 children, mean age = 8-10 years) recruited from the SBAM (Health, Wellness, Food Education and Movement at School) Project in Apulia, Southern Italy. Classes were randomly assigned to Experimental Group (EG) and Control Group (CG). EG followed a 5months experimental intervention based on the variation of teaching styles, while CG performed regular PE lessons. Physical fitness test was assessed with Standing Long Jump (SLJ), Medicine Ball Throw 1kg (MBT), and 20m sprint (20m), while two validated questionnaires were used to evaluate physical self-perception (PSP) and enjoyment. A 2x2 (intervention group x time) ANOVA was carried out to assess significant difference and interaction effect pre (t0) and post (t1) intervention protocol. Data analysis showed a significant improvement of physical fitness in both EG and CG, while PSP and enjoyment increased only in EG. Moreover, significant interaction (p<. 05) effects were found for 20m sprint, PSP and Enjoyment with low effect size (η2 ~. 20). The results of the present study highlight the effectiveness of a PE intervention based on the variation of teaching styles in improving physical fitness, self-perception, and enjoyment. Moreover, the use of production teaching styles significantly impacts self-perception and enjoyment, that are important mediating factors for guarantee better adherence to physical activity.
