Blood-derived biomaterials for tissue graft biofabrication by solvent-based extrusion bioprinting
Authors: Del Amo Cristina , Andia Isabel
Published: May 2023

This article provides an overview of the different types of blood-derived biomaterials that can be used as solvent additives in the formulation of inks/bioinks for use in solvent extrusion printing/bioprinting. We discuss the properties of various blood sub-products obtained after blood fractionation in terms of their use in tailoring ink/bioink to produce functional constructs designed to improve tissue repair. Blood-derived additives include platelets and/or their secretome, including signaling proteins and microvesicles, which can drive cell migration, inflammation, angiogenesis, and synthesis of extracellular matrix proteins. The contribution of plasma to ink/bioink functionalization relies not only on growth factors, such as hepatocyte growth factor and insulin growth factors, but also on adhesive proteins, such as fibrinogen/fibrin, vitronectin, and fibronectin. We review the current developments and progress in solvent-based extrusion printing/bioprinting with inks/bioinks functionalized with different blood-derived products, leading toward the development of more advanced patient-specific 3D constructs in multiple medical fields, including but not limited to oral tissues and cartilage, bone, skin, liver, and neural tissues. This information will assist researchers in identifying the most suitable blood-derived product for their ink/bioink formulation based on the intended regenerative functionality of the target tissue.

Published: May 2023

Diet and light foods have been gaining a space of great significance in relation to their consumption. It is noteworthy that people, constantly, do not have the habit of reading and/or do not know how to analyze the labels on product packages. Therefore, the aim of this work was to evaluate the consumption and understanding of consumers regarding diet and light foods. The present study was conducted online, with 103 people. A semi-structured questionnaire containing questions regarding food labeling and the consumption of diet and light products was used and applied via Google forms through social networks (WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, E-mail, Telegram). There was a greater participation of people of the female gender (72.8%). About 83% and 78% of the participants reported they did not use to consume diet and light foods, respectively. More than half of the participants (58.3%) reported they had the habit of reading nutrition labels. Most of them reported they knew the difference between diet and light foods (65%), with 30.1% reporting that diet foods do not have sugar in their composition and 35.9% claiming that light products have reduced calorie levels. The level of education and income influenced the habit of reading labels and knowledge about such foods. Most respondents read the labels and understand the importance, but do not have the knowledge regarding what diet and light products are and for whom they are intended, emphasizing the need to develop educational programs and strategies that clarify how to evaluate and understand nutritional labeling

This study aims to investigate the effects of environmental value and ecological worldview on eco-recreative attitudes. In recent years, human-related pollution has seriously increased. Therefore, it is critical to explain the eco-recreative attitudes of participants with an emphasis on how these attitudes support natural life. Another indicator of the significance of this study is that it explains the premises of the attitude. Environmental value in the proposed model was examined as three subfactors: biospheric, altruistic, and egoistic. Also, an eco-recreative attitude has three sub-factors, which are affective, cognitive and behavioural. The study population consisted of individuals who participated in eco-recreation activities in Turkey. The data were collected through a questionnaire form using the convenience sampling method. The analyses were conducted using SmartPLS. The findings showed that biospheric (positive) and egoistic value (negative) had an effect on ecological worldview, while ecological worldview had a positive effect on affective, cognitive and behavioural attitude. Also, the altruistic value did not significantly affect the ecological worldview.

Background: The sino-nasal unit, although anatomically a very small space, is quite exceptional in the sense that an eclectic mix of neoplastic tumors originate from here. The diverse nature of the neoplastic pathologies and their unique natural histories prompted for this study.
Methods: In this prospective study of two years, done in a rural tertiary care hospital of India, 46 patients with benign neoplastic tumors of nasal cavity, sinuses and nasopharynx were analyzed for their clinic-pathological and radiological profile and surgical management.
Results: The incidence of benign tumor was predominant in second decade (34.8%) with significant male preponderance (M:F ratio 2.28:1). Unilateral nasal obstruction (100%) and epistaxis (84.8%) were the two most common presenting complaints. Almost half (48%) of the patients presented as late as more than one year after the onset of the symptoms. Nasal cavity was the commonest site of the tumors (50%). The most common benign tumor in present study was capillary hemangioma (41.31%) followed by angiofibroma (26.09%). All tumors were removed by a standard functional endoscopic sinus surgery or combined approach. Except a single case of inverted papilloma, all the other cases showed no recurrence at the end of one year follow up period.
Conclusions: It can be concluded from present study that conjoint application of radiology, endoscopy and histopathology is of utmost importance in dealing with benign neoplastic pathology of sino-nasal region. There is significant success in managing benign sino-nasal tumors with functional endoscopic sinus surgery or by combined approach.

Authors: Holas Paweł , Shevchuk Yuliana , Jankowski Tomasz
Published: May 2023

The purpose of the present study was to adapt the Self-Compassion Scale (SCS; Neff, 2003) into Polish, to examine its validity and reliability, and to determine population norms for this tool. The study involved 604 adults (aged 18–85 years, 278 women and 326 men), constituting a representative sample of the Polish population in terms of gender, age, and place of residence. The adaptation procedure was carried out according to the rules of translation, demonstrating the fidelity of the translation of the original version of the questionnaire. The reliability of the measurement was tested using Cronbach’s alpha internal consistency method and test–retest method. The validity was assessed by analyzing correlation coefficients between SCS scores and the intensity of mindfulness (understood as a trait), resilience, empathic sensitivity with its subscales of perspective taking, personal distress and emphatic concern, and the level of depression and anxiety. Measurement stability was assessed using intraclass correlation coefficients applied to two consecutive measurements. The factor structure was verified using confirmatory factor analysis. The results showed that the SCS in the Polish version has good psychometric properties, and the emerged factor structure indicates that the best fit and specification had a model with two general factors of CS (compassionate self-responding) and RUS (reduced uncompassionate self-responding) and three specific factors: self-kindness, shared humanity, and mindfulness.

Published: May 2023

When evaluating the intelligibility of speech distorted by noise and reverberation, direct or indirect methods of measuring the speech transmission index are used. However, it remains insufficiently studied how significantly differ the results of measurements obtained by direct and indirect methods. To find an answer to this question, the use of a multicomponent test signal consisting of four "elementary" signals separated by pauses is proposed in this paper. As "elementary" signals, it is proposed to use a maximum-length sequence, a speech shaped maximum-length sequence, a speech shaped stationary noise, and a speech shaped amplitude-modulated noise. Use of amplitude-modulated noise allows estimating speech transmission index by a direct method. Other "elementary" signals make it possible to estimate speech transmission index by two variants of indirect method. The proposed algorithms and corresponding computer programs were tested on trial signal models, while the consistency of the obtained results with the results of previous studies was revealed. The results of the signal models studies show that both considered variants of the indirect speech transmission index measurement method lead to underestimated results compared to the direct method. For one of the variants of the indirect method, the value of the estimate bias is 0.03–0.04, regardless of the interfering conditions. For another variant of the indirect method, the estimate bias varies from 0.01 to 0.18, depending on the interference conditions.

Published: May 2023

In this study, the researcher focuses mainly on the analysis of the visual and verbal signs and how the meaning of semiotic signs is realized in graffities. This study is based on library research and uses the descriptive-qualitative method to analyze the data. The data for this study is ten urban anti-sexualism harassment graffities, collected by downloading the images from the websites of Pinterest and Google. Graffiti is a form of visual communication that mostly consist of writings and drawings that have been made on public surfaces, mainly the walls. The theory for visual signs was used to analyze the data of the semiotic Triadic Model proposed by Charles Sanders Peirce, whereas the theory of Dyer was used to analyze verbal signs. The analysis revealed that visual signs mainly indicate character movement in graffiti and emotions. The verbal signs support visual signs by highlighting some aspects in graffiti to convey information about how people should be more concerned about anti-sexual harassment issues that occur in life. In addition, the analysis of this study also shows that meaningful events are created by the relationship between visual and verbal signs contained in each graffiti.

Authors: Agung Prabowo Bagya , . Nurjihad , Fairuzzaman Fahmi
Published: May 2023

The Association of State-Owned Banks (Himbara) has taken over the ownership of three Islamic banks, Bank Rakyat Indonesia Syariah, Bank Syariah Mandiri, and Bank Negara Indonesia. As a result of this, the government expects Islamic finance to be more competitive in the digital age. To comply with the legislation, deposits made by customers who deposit money also go to the combined bank. According to the explanation of Article 28 of Law No. 10 of 1998 on Banking, the responsibility of the bank for customer funds in connection with a merger of banks is typically regulated. The merger carried out by the bank must not impair the interests of the customer. However, neither the Banking Law nor other pertinent laws and regulations provide additional guidance on the types of legal remedies that consumers negatively affected by this merger could use. This study aimed to ascertain the obligation of the Mudharib under the Mudharabah financing arrangement to Shahibul Maal funds following the merger into an Indonesian Sharia Commercial Bank. The results showed that the mudharib must continue the mudharabah financing agreement and continue to offer profit sharing in accordance with the terms of the shahibul maal funds in the mudharabah financing agreement following the merger into Bank Syariah Indonesia.

Published: May 2023

In Indonesia, the concept of undue influence is being used to annul agreements. There is a need to thoroughly analyse the undue influence doctrine, its relationship with the influence of the equity principle, and the urgency of its application in Indonesian contract law because Indonesia does not have a clear defining rule for the term. This study employs normative juridical research techniques by utilising a statutory approach, a case study approach, a historical approach, a comparative approach, and a conceptual approach. In conclusion, the equity principle is crucial when examining excessive influence. Therefore, the doctrine of equity should be considered while formulating the undue impact on the development of favourable legislation in Indonesia.

Authors: Setiawan Nur Heriyanto Dodik , Syarahbil Hudzaifi Muhammad
Published: May 2023

People with disabilities often have unequal access to education. Most higher education institutions and universities in Indonesia still have discriminatory practices. The main factors that affect people with disabilities are the lack of infrastructure and limited budget allocation. In Indonesian Islamic higher education institutions, many policies related to the development of education have not considered persons with disabilities. This study used a normative research method which examined legal policies for people with disabilities in Islamic universities in Indonesia. This study is essential to understand the legal policies in Islamic universities for people with disabilities. In addition, this study also provided an analysis of the compatibility between Fiqh related to equality for people with disabilities and legal policies in Islamic universities in Indonesia. This study concluded that most Islamic universities in Indonesia do not have legal policies that support people with disabilities and ensure their equal treatment at the university. For this reason, this study recommended that the ministry, which has the duty and authority in the field of education, establish guidelines and ensure that all universities in Indonesia provide accessibility to persons with disabilities.

This study aimed to reveal the wisdom of the State Civil Apparatus (SCA) in charge of the Government Agency Performance Accountability System (GAPAS) organization in the Situbondo Regency, Indonesia. The research focused on individual accountability practices to strengthen the performance accountability of governmental institutions based on the Madura philosophy of Bhuppa’ Bhabbhu Ghuru Rato. Ethnomethodology was conducted using four steps: indexicality analysis, reflexivity, contextual action, and common-sense presentation. The individuals involved in the GAPAS were not entirely Madurese; nevertheless, the Madura philosophy of Bhuppa’ Bhabbhu Ghuru Rato had been internalized by everyone. It was found that this philosophical understanding was not only for individuals but also could be a role model for subordinates. This philosophy was believed to be one of the success factors in achieving the A rank for three consecutive years in the GAPAS. Regional leaders need to consider the strength of the philosophy of local wisdom and internalize it in organizational management since it can positively impact individual performance.

Published: May 2023

This study analyzed managers’ ethical judgments against excessive investment in social care programs. The equity theory was used to develop the egocentric concept of selfmanagement, which predicted that individual managers with different compensation schemes and levels of long-term goals would make other ethical decisions in the corporate social care programs. The research had an experimental design, which found that managers underpay schemes that discourage pay schemes that do not provide managers with incentives to over-invest in social care programs; some consider that excessive spending in social activities is unethical. A compensation payment scheme encourages managers to overspend on social activities. Our study found that a manager with long-term goals perceives overspending as bad for the company or unethical. So, we concluded that economic incentives or compensation and an individual’s long-term goals impact ethical decisions. The results of our review highlighted the importance of designing appropriate payment schemes for managers because such schemes encourage investment decisions and managers’ ethical judgments. In addition, the results also identified the importance of considering individual factors, especially the long-term goal of managers.

O encapsulamento de enzimas permite a preservação de suas atividades biológicas em diversas condições ambientais, tendo importância na aplicação industrial. Dessa forma, o objetivo deste trabalho foi produzir, purificar parcialmente e encapsular a enzima microbiana protease obtida por fermentação semissólida. O extrato enzimático foi produzido a partir da fermentação de substrato com diferentes composições físico-químicas através do agente de fermentação o fungo filamentoso Aspergillus oryzae. Um planejamento experimental de mistura foi utilizado para determinar a região experimental e as proporções ideais entre os substratos. O extrato enzimático obtido pela formulação otimizada foi submetido ao processo de purificação parcial em sulfato de amônio, diálise e na sequência liofilizado. Com a enzima liofilizada realizou-se a determinação enzimática, coagulação do leite, análise termogravimétrica e análise térmica diferencial. O processo de encapsulamento foi realizado através da técnica de gelificação iônica na presença do polímero alginato de sódio e cloreto de cálcio dihidratado. A difratometria por raios-X (DRX) identificou que as amostras mesocarpo do babaçu, farelo de trigo e fibra do coco babaçu estudadas apresentaram características estruturais amorfas, presença de celulose e lignina. A protease obtida na formulação do meio otimizado, precipitada e liofilizada apresentou capacidade de coagulação do leite, atividade proteolítica de 261,5 U/g e através das análises térmicas foi verificado que o material possui estabilidade térmica em torno de 40 °C. Foi possível encapsular o extrato enzimático e preservar a atividade enzimática e com capacidade de coagulação do leite. Os resultados evidenciaram a otimização da formulação do meio, como também o potencial de aplicação industrial da enzima purificada e encapsulada preservando a atividade e possibilitando a aplicação e reutilização da enzima.
Analysing the Impact of Bedaquiline Resistance in Fluoroquinolone-Resistant Clinical Isolates and Investigating the Molecular Interactions of BDQ with the atpE Gene

The progress of the tuberculosis eradication programme is hindered by the global health issue of drug-resistant tuberculosis, which is a significant threat to the population. Resistance-associated mutations vary geographically, so investigate the prevalence of resistance to fluoroquinolone (anti-TB) drugs and its association with resistance-related mutations in clinical isolates of Tamilnadu (north zone) and Puducherry was carried out. And the resultant fluoroquinolone drug-resistant tuberculosis strains will be subjected to the molecular analysis of bedaquiline resistance to study the mutation in the atpE gene. The study includes 430 specimens received at Intermediate Reference Laboratory, State TB training and Demonstration Centre in the Government Hospital for Chest Diseases for Molecular testing between January 2020 and December 2021. Samples were analysed by GenoType MTBDRslV.2 for the molecular detection of mutations in the gyrA and gyrB genes. FQ resistance was observed in 32 samples (7.4%), most of which were naïve and previous treatment failure cases. Twenty-five isolates had mutations in DNA gyrase subunit -A (gyrA), while mutations in gyrB were observed in only 7 isolates. Mutational analysis revealed that the mutations mainly alter codon 94 (replacing aspartic acid with glycine, D94G), and 90 (replacing alanine with valine, A90V). In Isoniazid Resistance, MDR, and treatment failure cases, the resistance to Fluoroquinolones was most commonly associated with the D94G mutation. A molecular stimulation study evaluates the effect of BDQ on atpE gene by docking, using AutoDock 4.2, showing hydrogen, hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions.
Assessing the Effects and Environmental Implications of Biochar Amendment in Agricultural Soils
Authors:   University of Nebraska - Lincoln, Plant Sciences Hall (PLSH), 279E, Lincoln NE 68583-0915, USA, Davis Thomas Wilbur
Published: May 2023

In recent years, the production and use of biochar have been increasing rapidly, and the biochar market is projected to continue growing between 2019 and 2025. Given that biochar has a long residence time in the environment (soil), a systematic review was conducted to assess the major environmental impacts of its application in agricultural soils. The results were largely consistent in indicating the positive effects of biochar on soil fertility, moisture content, and microbial communities. Moreover, biochar has been shown to improve soil physical properties and provide habitats for soil microorganisms. Biochar application in soil has the potential to mitigate climate change and reduce human health risks. However, the oxidation and ageing process of biochar has the potential to lead to the absorption, accumulation, and release of environmental pollutants such as heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), dioxins, environmentally persistent free radicals (EPFRs), perfluorochemicals (PFCs), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) depending on the type of biomass used. Therefore, when considering biochar application in soil for agricultural purposes, it is important to consider the biomass type and investigate the potential negative secondary environmental consequences.

De la marginalidad urbana a la "Ciudad autogestionaria": ¿Problema y solución?
Authors: Medina García Oswaldo
Published: May 2023

Centraremos nuestro trabajo en "Villa El Salvador" cuya constitución corresponde al año 1971 y analizaremos este nuevo patrón de asentamiento, para el que se ideó y diseñó la modalidad de desarrollo conocida como: "La ciudad empresa autogestionaria". En los últimos años, Villa El Salvador ha venido a constituirse en un excelente "caso tipo" para estudiar el problema de la marginalidad urbana y sus diversos efectos, los que no son sino manifestaciones visibles de las presiones excesivas y tensiones sin precedentes que está sufriendo la sociedad nacional y local,
