Authors: Liu Jiangping , Jia Jiutai , Xue Heru , Pan Xin , Liu Yilei
Published: January 2022

In order to achieve the prediction of milk protein content in milk from hygiene and health point of view, this paper uses the spectral characteristics of milk hyperspectral to propose a predictive modeling method based on convolutional neural network (CNN). In this experiment, 45 samples of milk with different concentration of protein were collected by visible/near infrared hyperspectral imaging system, and the number of samples was expanded to 4,500 by region of interest extraction, the obtained absorption spectra were processed using the Savitzky–Golay smoothing, then a 1-D CNN was used to establish the prediction model. The result of experiment indicates that the CNN model can basically complete the task of protein content prediction in milk, and the determinant coefficient of calibration set, determinant coefficient of prediction set, root mean square error of calibration set, and root mean square error of prediction set of the CNN model are 0.9071, 0.9101, 0.1159 g/(100 mL), and 0.1044 g/(100 mL), respectively. In order to verify the predictive ability of CNN, comparative experiments were carried out using more traditional partial least square regression (PLSR) and support vector regression (SVR), the experiment result shows the CNN model has the largest R2 and the smallest root mean square error. Comparing with the optimized PLSR and SVR models (dimension reduction), CNN model still has a best fitting effect. To summarize, the CNN model can fully use the spectral features of milk to achieve a higher precision prediction of milk protein content, and it has a lower demand for data preprocessing.
A Forcing Function for Testing Marine Fenders with Comparison to ASTM F2192-05(17) and PIANC Guidelines
Authors: Metzger Andrew T.
Published: January 2022

This work derives a forcing function that is intended for performance evaluation of a marine fender. The forcing function is based on the physics of a realistic berthing scenario and is presented in terms of force, deflection, and time. Presenting the forcing function in these terms will facilitate implementation using modern-day actuators and control systems. The forcing function is compared with the guidelines of the current ASTM standard, ASTM F2192-05(2017), Standard Test Method for Determining and Reporting the Berthing Energy and Reaction of Marine Fenders, for testing and reporting the performance of marine fenders, as well as the World Association for Waterborne Transport Infrastructure (PIANC) guidelines. It was found that the velocity regime for an actual berthing scenario is nonlinear, while the ASTM standard and PIANC guidelines provide for both linear and nonlinear decreasing velocity regimes when testing, none of which conform to the berthing scenario. It was also found that the duration of a test, using the current standard, is longer than the duration of an actual berthing scenario. In addition, it was determined that the energy-based approach provided in the current ASTM standard is identical to the physics of a berthing scenario. However, a shortcoming of the energy-based approach, as presented, is the difficulty in implementation, because the equation provided in the standard is in terms of energy, which is not programmable into controllers of testing equipment. The methodology presented here will yield input values for testing that are a realistic description of a vessel coming to rest at berth. This approach may be used for a unique vessel of particular significance, a specific class of vessels, or in general performance testing. It is expected that the results presented here are a basis for test parameters that will be an accurate description of field conditions.

Authors: Acuña Dante , Cornejo William
Published: January 2022

Introducción. La enfermedad de Carrión, causada por Bartonella bacilliformis, es una enfermedad reemergente en el Perú, que se diagnostica convencionalmente mediante el frotis sanguíneo y el cultivo, los cuales son métodos poco sensibles, necesitándose métodos diagnósticos alternativos. Objetivos. Determinar la sensibilidad y especificidad de la contrainmunoelectroforesis (CIEF) utilizando un antígeno sonicado obtenido de una cepa de Bartonella sp., para detectar anticuerpos contra la bacteria comparado con el cultivo como estándar de referencia. Métodos. El antígeno para la prueba se obtuvo por sonicación de un aislado de Bartonella sp., cultivado en un medio bifásico con y sin sangre de carnero. La reactividad del antígeno sonicado fue evaluada por la CIEF empleando 123 sueros de personas, de los cuales 60 fueron de pacientes con diagnóstico clínico y bacteriológico de enfermedad de Carrión, 54 de personas con otras infecciones y 9 de personas sanas. Para la estandarización de la prueba de CIEF se evaluaron el tamaño y la distancia entre los pocillos, así como la concentración del antígeno y los volúmenes de los reactivos usados. Resultados. La concentración óptima del antígeno fue de 0,64 mg/mL, la distancia entre los pocillos de 3 mm, el tamaño de los pocillos de 3 mm y el volumen de los reactivos de 12 μL. La CIEF estandarizada tuvo una sensibilidad de 43,3% y una especificidad de 98,4%. Conclusiones. Los resultados de la CIEF revelan una baja sensibilidad de la prueba, pudiéndose usar como una prueba confirmatoria dada su elevada especificidad, pero no puede ser utilizada como prueba de tamizaje serológico por su escasa sensibilidad.

Authors: Zeta Christian , Reaño Gustavo , De Vinatea José
Published: January 2022

La pancreatitis crónica calcificante (PCC) es la forma más común de pancreatitis crónica a nivel mundial y está relacionada a dolor crónico incapacitante e insuficiencia pancreática. El manejo del dolor abdominal crónico en PCC representa un reto, siendo habitual el uso de opiáceos que generan tolerancia y dependencia. Por esta razón se propone un tratamiento escalonado, progresando desde tratamiento médico y endoscópico hasta el quirúrgico con el fin de aliviar el dolor y conservar la función pancreática. La pancreatoyeyunostomia lateral (PYL) o procedimiento de Partington Rochelle, es la técnica de elección más frecuente en pacientes con dolor crónico producto de la PCC refractario a tratamiento médico y endoscópico, asociado a dilatación del conducto pancreático principal. Reportamos el caso de un paciente con diagnóstico de PCC sometido a PYL laparoscópica, siendo el primer reporte en el Perú, describimos la técnica empleada y la complicación tratada con éxito. Se revisa la literatura pertinente.

Foreign Direct Investment and Economic Growth Nexus: Empirical Insight from Guinea
Authors: Keita Oumar , Baorong Yu
Published: January 2022

Although the predominant theoretical literature presumed foreign capital inflows to carry broad benefits to recipient nations, this assumption has been recently questioned in Guinea since the resulting GDP growth has weakly impacted social welfare. This empirical study offers a better insight of the extent to which foreign direct investment (FDI) influences economic growth in the Guinean context over the period 1990-2017. Fiscally, the per GDP FDI net inflows and GDP growth rate are respectively employed as FDI estimate and economic advancement indicator. The findings established in this study included: first, foreign direct investment in the long run positively affects economic advancement in Guinea at 1% significance level. This outcome suggests that 1% raise in FDI per GDP leads to 0.45 increase in GDP growth. Moreover, this finding is in line with the main literature related to foreign investment induced effects in Africa and other developing regions. Second, the short run coefficients suggest the same story exposed by the long run investigation. FDI per GDP [L1], [L2] positively and significantly influences economic growth in the Guinean context. Even though there is strong evidence that FDI positively affects growth in Guinea, government should consider the form of foreign investments to be promoted in the country. The study recommends that resource seeking type without transformation must be discouraged for the benefit of market or efficiency seeking investment. By doing so, Guinean economy will experience healthier and welfare enhancing growth.

Published: January 2022

Body image includes two aspects which are one’s perceptions towards one’s body size, weight, shape, as well as physical attributes or movements and feelings about these attributes, which consequently impact one’s behaviour. In this regard, the media plays a key role in defining emerging adults’ self-beliefs about themselves and how these attributes are further translated into behavioural outcomes. Guided by the Sociocultural Theory, this study is undertaken to probe the extent of media influence on Malaysian emerging adults’ body image and how this influence exerts on their emotions and behaviours. Through purposive sampling technique on 227 emerging adults enrolled at a Malaysian public university, a questionnaire probed the causal role of the media and its effects on the body image of these young adults. The study found that the media, particularly social media has a strong and significant influence on Malaysian emerging adults. However, a noteworthy finding is that the emotional states experienced by young adults are not always negative. Despite the constant flooding of advertisements on ideal beauty, weight and skin tone, the majority take the more rational and positive route in improving themselves and their body image by opting for exercise and change in diet regime. This implies that educators, parents, policy makers and the society at large need to constantly awaken the minds of the youth about the inevitable impact of the media and care should be taken to ensure frequent reinforcements and mitigation approaches.
Analysis of Safety Performance of Construction Projects in India Using Safety Audit Elements, AHP and Taguchi Loss Function: A Case Study
Authors: SIVA RAJAPRASAD SUNKU VENKATA
Published: January 2022

Construction safety performance is traditionally assessed based on workplace conditions and analyzing accident statistics, there is no provision to consider the safety management systems which affect site safety. One of the systems use to measure safety performance is occupational safety and health audit which identify failures within a system and the information gathered assist to determine the best course of corrective action. Therefore, this study was designed and conducted to develop a method for evaluating the safety performance of five highway project sites in India using the Analytic Hierarchy Process and Taguchi loss functions. In the first stage of the study, the Analytic Hierarchy Process was applied by obtaining the judgments of the expert team to determine the weights of the safety audit elements. In the second stage, the five project sites were analyzed and ranked by determining the total loss score using the Taguchi loss functions. Based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process analysis, the weights of the safety management (0.1949), hazard identification and risk assessment (0.1460), and safety education and training (0.1268) had the highest impact on the safety performance of the five project sites. The results of the Taguchi loss functions of the five project sites showed that the total loss score was the lowest and highest for project site 3 (77.89) and site 5 (81.54), respectively. In the current study, an integrated method was developed for evaluating the safety performance of five highway project sites. The weights of the nine safety audit elements were vital in determining the total loss score by using the Taguchi loss functions for ranking the five projects sites based on safety performance. Therefore, using this method can be an effective step in identifying the project site with better safety performance as a benchmarking unit for the other sites.

Published: January 2022

Despite all the positive effects of cell phones on communication, the improper use of these devices may lead to fatigue and many other problems, including academic, physical, and social problems. Among different age groups, students are the most affected due to the importance of cell phones in their educational and communications needs. In this study, we seek to investigate the relationship between improper use of cell phones and fatigue in Iranian medical students. In the present descriptive-analytical and cross-sectional study, 400 students were randomly selected from the Iran University of Medical Sciences by cluster sampling. Data collection tools included demographic information questionnaires, harmful cell phone use (COS), and fatigue (Smets). Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 22 based on the frequency tests, mean, standard deviation, and ANOVA with a significance level of 0.05. The mean age of students was 24.1±5.65. The total population of the study was 56% female and 44%, male. The results revealed that the prevalence of fatigue among students was moderate (56.60%). The status of harmful cell phone use was reported to be moderate (90%). There was a significant relationship between mobile phone use and total fatigue (p=0.029), decreased motivation (p=0.025), and mental fatigue (p = 0.001). Results showed that excessive use of cell phones had an adverse impact on total fatigue, mental fatigue, and motivation. Therefore, it is recommended to design effective interventions to prevent harmful use of cell-phone, student fatigue, and other consequences, including academic failure and reduction of mental health.

Due to the discharge of the effluent containing rich-nutrient matters such as phosphate into water bodies, some of the problems including eutrophication created that created adverse environmental impacts. Hence, we prepared a new Fe-doped coconut fiber coir-based biochar (Fe-CFCB) as an effective adsorbent for adsorbing phosphate from an aqueous solution. According to characteristics results, the amorphous structure besides the presence of ferrihydrite and hydroxide confirmed in the Fe-CFCB, enhances the phosphate adsorption. The pH and Temperature are played the main roles in phosphate adsorption by Fe-CFCB, according to batch experimental. the experimental data and before/after adsorption characteristics appeared that the electrostatic attraction, chemical precipitation, and complexation could be considered as main mechanisms of adsorption P by FeCFCB. The newly prepared adsorbent could reveal a feasible pathway for phosphate removal from an aqueous solution and also could consider an effective and eco-friendly adsorbent for the removal of wide ranges of pollutants in the future.

Zespół Jeavonsa (ZJ) to rzadki, genetycznie uwarunkowany zespół padaczkowy charakteryzujący się miokloniami powiek z upośledzeniem świadomości lub z jej zachowaniem. Napady mogą wystąpić pod wpływem fotostymulacji lub zostać wyindukowane przez pacjenta poprzez zamknięcie powiek. Mioklonie powiek stanowią główny typ napadów, ale zwykle są błędnie interpretowane lub przeoczane, dopóki nie rozwiną się inne typy napadów lub nie zostanie wykonane wideo-EEG. Najskuteczniejszymi lekami wydają się być kwas walproinowy i lewetyracetam, często jednak dochodzi do rozwoju padaczki lekoopornej. Duża różnica między wiekiem wystąpienia pierwszych objawów a postawieniem prawidłowego rozpoznania potwierdza fakt, iż choroba ta stwarza istotne problemy diagnostyczne.

Introduction: Primary angiitis of central nervous system in childhood (cPACNS) is a rare idiopathic inflammatory disease and an increasing cause of acute ischemic stroke in children. Due to heterogenous classification and poorly understood pathomechanism there are no estimated prevalence and treatment guidelines for PACNS in pediatric population. Case report: A 6-year-old boy with symptoms of acute ischemic stroke was admitted. Neurological examination revealed left hemiparesis. After exclusion of brain hemorrhage the patient was primarily treated with anticoagulants. Brain magnetic resonance (MRI) showed reduced flow with longitudinal stenosis in right internal carotid artery and right middle cerebral artery. Numerous ischemic focuses acute and chronic were found in right cortical and subcortical regions. Hematologic disorders were excluded, as were other inflammatory disorders. Due to imaging studies and clinical features primary angiitis was suspected. Corticosteroids were administrated and regression of neurological deficits was observed. Eventually cPACNS was diagnosed. Conclusion: cPACNS should be considered after exclusion of systematic, rheumatological and secondary causes of vasculitis. Fast diagnosis and administration of therapy is absolutely essential as most of the case series carried on adult population suggest a favorable clinical outcome of cPACNS early treated with steroids.

Introduction. The article deals with The Atlas of Tibetan Medicine and examines a history of its studies at the Buryat Institute of Social Sciences from new perspectives. Goals. To facilitate this, the work aims to 1) examine a history of the Buryat copy and attempt its attribution, 2) investigate the Orientalist P. B. Baldanzhapov’s personal contribution to the exploration and preservation of the monument, and 3) identify specific features of cultural interaction in the cross-border Buddhist region of Russia and Tibet. Materials and methods. The article analyzes archival and literary documents, field records, and electronic sources. It uses modern methods of historical science, including the concept of ‘intellectual biography’. Therein, intelligence is understood as a psychological aspect, a quality of personality that takes its complete shape on the basis of moral principles. Results. The Atlas of Tibetan Medicine is a corpus of illustrations to Vaidurya sNgon-po (Tib. ‘Blue Beryl’), a commentary to rGyud-bZhi (‘Four Tantras’). Its excellent copy dated to the late 19th and early 20th centuries was once owned by Buryat datsans (monasteries), and since 1936 has been stored at the National Museum of Buryatia. The study of the forgotten monument was initiated by Baldanzhapov in 1968 when he organized a scientific department at the Buryat Institute of Social Sciences, and the research team included both secular and clerical scholars, i. e. previously repressed Buryat Buddhist monks with expertise in Tibetan, philosophy, and medicine. Notably, the work on the study and preservation of the monument had a moral, ethical significance to Baldanzhapov psychologically motivated as an intellectual shaped by the Buddhist milieu and Buddhist teachers. Being an Orientalist scholar at an academic institution, he had the resources and opportunities to fulfill his mission and — in an atheist state — return monuments of Buddhist culture to the world. Conclusions. The authentic materials analyzed attest to that the active processes of cultural interaction in the Buddhist cross-border region of Russia and Tibet resulted in that The Atlas of Tibetan Medicine and other valuable monuments were delivered to Buryatia. The paper also stresses a uniqueness of the monument and shows the invaluable personal contribution of the prominent Orientalist Baldanzhapov to its study and preservation.

Published: January 2022

The article examines one of the aspects of the creative heritage of Purbo Baldanovich Baldanzhapov (1921–1991), the eminent scholar of history and culture of Mongolian-speaking peoples. The study is of relevance, granted the importance of his field work and materials collected in the expeditions, including the data on the history and culture of Buryats, Mongolians, and Tuvans that need to be published. The article aims to give an estimate of Baldanzhapov’s scholarly work and of his role for the development of science in Buryatia and to introduce his field materials to make them available for scientific study. For the purpose, methods of source studies were used for the description and analysis of the field materials under study and the biographical method was employed in the estimation of the scholar’s contribution to the study of the history and culture of the Mongolian-speaking peoples. Materials used for the research were his field reports, reports, expedition diaries, and notebooks kept in the scholar’s personal archive (f. no. 29) at the Center for Oriental Manuscripts and Xylographs of the Institute of Mongolian Studies, Buddhology and Tibetology, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Results. While he was involved in numerous scholarly activities, Baldanzhapov focused on the collection and identification of written monuments, especially Mongolian chronicles and works on Indo-Tibetan medicine. As a member of historical- ethnographic expeditions, he collected data on shamanistic rituals, Buryat clans and families, folklore, and ethnography. His data on the spiritual culture of the Buryats and Mongolians, the transformation of Mongolian society and the development of school education in Mongolia substantially supplement and concretize the history and culture of the peoples under study. Conclusions. Baldanzhapov managed to implement several large projects for the study of written sources, the spiritual culture of the Buryats and Mongolians, and Indo-Tibetan medicine. The draft records of most field materials are not easy to work with, but they are sure to be of relevance for the researchers in the field. Notably, in terms of their thematic coverage, the archival materials, Mongolian and Tibetan manuscripts and xylographs, microfilms, which the scholar managed to collect, are unique in the collection of the Center of Oriental Manuscripts and Xylographs of the Institute for Mongolian, Buddhist and Tibetan Studies (SB RAS).

Introduction. In 1958, the Mongolian Academy of Sciences launched the “Monumenta Historica” series, which was to become the main venue of modern historical science in Mongolia for over fifty years of research in the field. Several factors were influential for the series reputation: i) leading Mongolian scholars, as well as scholars outside of Mongolia, worked hard in the country and abroad to collect a large amount of material on Mongolian sources; ii) the Mongolian-Soviet team of scholars published “History of Mongolia”, which contributed to the study of research methods of historical sources; and iii) a large number of sources and scholarly works were published by Russian and Soviet scholars at the time, including such authors as A. M. Pozdneev, Ts. Zh. Zhamtsarano, L. S. Puchkovsky, N. P. Shastina, S. D. Dylykov, etc. whose contribution to the development of the source studies was invaluable. Among these scholars, we would like to single out Purbo B. Baldanzhapov. The present article aims to describe Baldanzhapov’s contribution to the study of Mongolian historical sources. Materials and methods. The main research methods employed for the study were biographical, historical-problematic, and historical-descriptive. Baldanzhapov’s major publications in the field and a wide range of published sources on Mongolian history were the materials selected for the undertaken research. Results. The scholar’s studies were focused on the main sources on the history of Mongolia, such as Galdan’s “Erdeniin Erikhe” (Precious Rosary), “Tsagaan tukhe” (White History), “Altan Tobchi” (Golden History) by Mergen-gegen, etc. He had an excellent command of Mongolian script, perfectly understood the content of the original monuments, and was a master of the source analysis. Baldanzhapov made several visits to Mongolia and during his stays copied many sources, including “Tsagaan tukhe” from the collection in the library of the Gandantegchenlin monastery. Conclusions. Granted a close friendly relationship between Baldanzhapov and the first editor-in-chief of the “Monumenta Historica”, Sh. Natsagdorj, who knew each other since their postgraduate days in Moscow, it may be assumed that the latter’s knowledge of his friend’s research methodology, as well as of Baldanzhapov’s published works had an overall influence on the methodology of publications in the series. Baldanzhapov’s studies of Mongolian sources have not lost their relevance, his elaborate contributions to Mongolian history and written tradition studies have served as a methodological guide for young Mongolian scholars.

This article continues the study of the traditional musical culture of the Eastern Khori-Buryats, based on rare archival material of the audio collection of the famous orientalist Purbo Baldanovich Baldanzhapov (1921–1991). The research was started by the author in 2014 in the article “Materials of P. B. Baldanzhapov as a source for studying the song tradition of the Khori-Buryats”. The aim of this article is to represent the early folklore genres of the ceremonial traditional music of the Eastern Khori-Buryats. In the article the methods of genre and structural-typological analysis of folklore works recorded by P. B. Baldanzhapov were used. The study of the Khori-Buryat ritual song tradition, as a system, entailed the involvement of a structural and functional method, which allowed us to consider various aspects of the ritual and ritual complex of the eastern Khori-Buryats. The traditional musical culture of the Eastern Khori-Buryats can be divided into two genre groups (ceremonial and non-ceremonial). The ritual music of P.B. Baldanzhapov’s audio collection includes wedding songs (Uusyn duunuud), the ancient ritual dance Neryelge and accompanying songs (Neryelgyn or Neryeenei duunuud), the glorification of the horse by Morinoy solo, Buddhist Maani chants. The second group includes such genres of non-ritual sphere as uligers (Ulgernuud), historical songs (Tuuhyn duunuud) about Shilde Zangi, magtals to parents (Magtaalnuud), ring songs (Beheligey duunuud), comic songs (Shog duunuud). In this article, special attention is paid to the unique, but already lost genres of ritual music of Khori-Buryats – Neryelgyn duunuud, accompanying the ritual dance of Neryelge and the glorification of the horse (Morinoy solo), who won the race. The analysis of the semantics of poetic texts and musical intonations of Neryelgyn duunuud and Morinoy solo allows us to attribute these genres to the early folklore layer of the traditional musical culture of the Eastern Khori-Buryats and to reveal the semantic connection with the mythology and religion of the early nomads. Of course, in the future research it is necessary to continue studying the works of non-ritual traditional music of the Khori-Buryats from the collection of P.B. Baldanzhapov. The analyses of these samples of song folklore might allow to carry out the notation of Morinoy’s solo samples with their subsequent musical analysis and publication. One of the promising areas of research may be the reconstruction of these rare and unique genres of ritual music of the Khori-Buryats in the context of a comparative historical study of the cultural traditions of the Turkic-Mongolian peoples.

Introduction. The article provides a partial statistical analysis of the database of Red Army servicemen conscripted in the Kalmyk ASSR and later identified as KIAs, DOWs and MIAs During the Great Patriotic War. Goals. The article compiles a database of Red Army conscripts from the Kalmyk ASSR further categorized as ‘fatal casualties’ and attempts a statistical analysis by places of service and death. Materials and methods. The paper examines data borrowed from volumes 1 and 2 of the edition titled ‘Memory. Sanl’. The reconstruction of missing materials on places of service and death involved the use of archival documents available at Pamyat Naroda (People’s Memory) and OBD Memorial online databases. The author employs a wide range of scientific methods, both general scientific and historical ones. The need for statistical analysis results in the wide use of statistical and extrapolation methods. Results. The work shows that both the volumes contain quite a number of inaccuracies in names of geographical objects, errors in military unit numbers, clerical errors in actual dates. Nonetheless, the present compiled and corrected database contains a significant portion of statistical data on places of service and death, and further use of the latter will contribute to the research of a collective portrait of Red Army servicemen conscripted in the Kalmyk ASSR during the Great Patriotic War of 1941–1945.

Este artigo tem por objetivo analisar a relação entre a autoimagem corporal de mulheres obesas e o consumo de moda em tamanhos maiores. Em termos metodológicos, trata-se de uma pesquisa quantitativa-descritiva, com 214 questionários respondidos e divididos em quatro grupos configurados de acordo com o grau de obesidade de cada participante. Para mensuração da percepção de autoimagem, recorreu-se à Escala de Silhueta e foi realizada uma análise estatística multivariada. Os resultados apontam a presença de distorção de autoimagem corporal na maioria das participantes, e mostram como essas mulheres lidam com essa distorção, com a autoaceitação, os padrões de beleza impostos pela sociedade, discriminação social e a maneira como vivenciam as experiências de consumo de moda e moda plus size.

Numerous variables are considered in a normal occlusion, one of those is the homeostasis of the facial musculature and its harmony with bones and teeth. Several factors can lead to change in muscle functionality. An example is the facial burn injury in which it is common formation of hypertrophic scars that cause muscle structures dysfunction and impact on facial growth and dentition development. Patient K.R.S, 15-years-old, female, sought treatment at the Center for Attention and Research of Craniofacial Anomalies (CEAPAC) complaining of “crooked teeth”. She reported during anamnesis that when she was a child, she suffered a domestic accident which caused facial, and body burn injury. The patient had Angle Class I malocclusion and upper and lower incisor lingualization. Dental arch atresia and moderate crowding were observed. Rapid maxillary expansion and lower dental expansion were performed with the lip bumper, followed by teeth alignment and leveling with a fixed appliance. n the retainment phase, Hawley plates (upper and lower) were used in addition to a fixed lower retainer. The treatment of arch expansion and alignment proved to be viable and predictable, however, the stability has a dubious prognosis, which led the authors to indicate the use of retainers indefinitely.

The current qualitative and quantitative study methods intend to investigate the quality of electronic examinations and the obstacles of changing the examinations’ process from the participants’ experiences and perspectives. The study generates feedback to enhance the adoption and improvement of the e. examination process. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, electronic exams help much during the education interruption. The study employed two tools to answer the study’scentraln question: “To what extent did teachers and students reflect on the quality of electronic examinations’ criteria? They Were distributed among (n=165) undergraduates and (n=24) faculty members during 2020/2021. Findings from the e. questionnaire’s SPSS and interview’s content analyses indicated that most participants were satisfied with the e. exams’ flexibility, ease of use, clarity, fairness in grading, and feasibility in time, efforts, and money. Concerning challenges, few undergraduates complained about the Network problems, e. cheating, and the number of attempts to answer e. exams. Few faculty members have complained that some questions require different preparation methods, e. exams increase students’ scores without much effort. On the other hand, it opened the door for malpractices. To conclude, the results revealed that E. examinations are of high quality; they were responsible for undergraduates’ high performance, saved effort and time more than the in-class exams. The study recommends future research exploring families, especially parents, about their experience with kids regarding the quality of online examinations during the COVID- 19 pandemic. Moreover, research is needed to address how teachers deal with the validity and reliability of the electronic exams

Early blight disease (Alternaria solani Sor) is one of limiting factors in tomato production. Bacteria and yeast are potential for biocontrol of plant diseases.  Sources to obtain biocontrol agens is water extract of organic matters. The objective of this study was to examine the abilities of bacteria and yeast isolated from vermicompost water extract in inhibiting the growth of A. solani in vitro and suppressing the pathogen infection in tomato fruits and leaves. Two types of vermicompost used in this study were cattle manure vermicompost and goat manure vermicompost. The isolation of bacteria and yeast from the vermicompost water extract resulted in 14 isolates, which were 10 isolates from cattle manure vermicompost and four isolates from goat manure vermicompost. Among the isolates, six isolates (three yeast and three bacterial isolates) inhibited the growth of A. solani in vitro by 42.8% – 79.1%. In tomato fruits, five isolates inhibited A. solani infection by 70.6% - 100.0%.  In tomato plants, four isolates suppressed early blight disease in tomato leaves by 56.2% - 83.5%. The isolate that showed consistent effects in vitro as well as in vivo was bacterial isolate KB 3. This isolate was potential as biocontrol agent of tomato diseases caused by A. solani.

The application of ameliorant material and the use of varieties that are tolerant to salinity stress are one of the cultivation technologies that can increase the growth and yield of soybeans on saline soils. The purpose of this study was to determine the best type of ameliorant and variety and their interaction to increase the growth and yield of soybean plants on saline soil. The research was conducted on Jl. Budi Utomo, Pontianak City starting from 31 October 2020 to 20 January 2021. The experimental design used a completely randomized factorial design. The first factor is the type of ameliorant with 4 levels (without ameliorant, gypsum, humic acid, and cow manure). The second factor is various soybean varieties with 3 levels (Anjasmoro, Argomulyo, and Grobogan varieties). Variables observed consisted of plant height at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 WAP (weeks after planting), leaf chlorophyll content (leaf greenness), plant toxicity level, number of pods per plant, and salt content. The results showed that cow manure could increase plant growth and yield better than other ameliorants. The Anjasmoro variety gave the highest number of pods compared to Argomulyo and Grobogan on ameliorant manure, and without ameliorant Argomulyo gave the highest number of pods.
