Published: June 2023

The importance of the fisheries sector for East Java Province can be seen from the high capture fisheries production compared to other provinces di Indonesia. In 2021, East Java Province is listed as the province with the highest capture fisheries production in Indonesia. This is suspected to be affected by several factors i.e the numberi of fishermen, fishing vessels, and fishing ports, so analysis is needed to determinei the effect of these factors on capture fisheries in East Java. The aim of this studyi was to determine the effect of the amount of fishermen, fishing boats, and fishing ports on capture fisheries production in East Java. The research methodi used in this research iis descriptive using secondary data. The data analysis used is multiplei linear regression,  F-test, and  T-test. Based on the results,  the multiple linear regression analysis were obtained by the equation y = 292.543,118 + 0,381 X1-0,722 X2 + 2.838,450 X3 with an adjusted R2 value of 72,7 %. The F test shows a isignificance <0,05, which meansi that the total number of fishermen, fishing boats, and fishing ports have a significant effecti simultaneously on capture fisheries production in East Java. The T-test shows that the numberi of fishing ports has a partially significant effect on marine capture fisheries production in East Java Province (sig. <0,05). Meanwhile, the number ofi fishermen and fishingi boats showed no partially significant effect oni capture fisheriesi production in East Java Province (sig. > 0,05).

Authors: Tambaru Rahmadi
Published: June 2023

This study aimed to evaluate environmental parameters and phytoplankton quality as well as the implications for the food safety of seafood-consuming coastal communities. The study was conducted in coastal waters of South Sulawesi, Indonesia at four sites (three stations/site): Pangkep (PK), Kuri (KR), Maros (MR), and Tallo (TL) during June, August, and October 2020. Observations formed three spatial clusters: MR1, PK; MR2, MR3, TL; KR (92.5 % similarity), and two temporal clusters: June 2020; August and October 2020 (87.9 % similarity). PCA showed parameters most strongly characterizing TL, KR, and MR (except MR1) were high levels of salinity, nitrate, nitrite, ammonium, silicate, temperature, pH, and abundance of  both phytoplankton that can form harmful algal blooms (HABs) and non-HAB forming phytoplankton (non-HABs), with low current velocity. PK was characterized by high current velocity, non-HABs, orthophosphate, ammonium, nitrite, and turbidity with low nitrate and HABs. Main characterizing parameters in the temporal PCA were high current velocity and HABs with low orthophosphate in June 2020; high nitrate, ammonium, orthophosphate, and non-HABs with even lower HABs in August 2020; high turbidity, temperature, and salinity with low pH, nitrite, silicate, and HABs in October 2020. Current velocity (low at TL, KR, MR and high at PK) influenced both non-HABs and HABs. The results indicate that faster currents may have impeded HABs development so that the phytoplankton quality was still good. Therefore, the fish from these waters can be considered safe for human consumption, thereby contributing to maintaining the health of coastal communities.

Authors: Ablola Ferissa B.
Published: June 2023

The two learning theories which were evidently used in medical education include cognitive and sociocultural frameworks. The interplay of different learning theories in education is vital since most of the existing theories have specific focus of development. In addition, a certain theory is best fit with a particular learning outcome and audience profile. The application of learning theories is education is said to be dynamic and becomes more complex with increasing educational level. This systematic review aims to describe the possible shift from integration of cognitive learning theory to employment of socio-cultural approach in medical and health-allied education over the years among students, educators and the learning institution through systematic review following the PRISMA guidelines. In addition, the changes in teaching modality and individual acceptance of the shift of learning framework among cognitive constructivist and social constructivist will also be documented. This present review may serve as baseline information on the connection of two widely used theories in medical education in different year levels. Further, this study emphasizes the significance of the alignment of different learning theories and combination of insights from several educational frameworks, would permit the creation of a teaching/learning design with real theoretical depth. A more inclusive systematic review is necessary to involve more related studies, and exploration of interaction among other learning theories in health and other fields of study is encouraged.
Intravascular Large B-Cell Lymphoma (IVLBCL) Presenting with CNS Involvement in Patient with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Authors: Grabovska D  , Balodis A  , Kreitale E  , Pucite E
Published: June 2023

Background: Intravascular lymphoma (IVL) is a rare, often fatal disease characterized by intraluminal proliferation of lymphoid cells within blood vessels. Intravascular Large B-Cell Lymphoma (IVLBCL) is frequently found in different organs, but the skin and central nervous system (CNS) are the most affected ones. Routine radiological examination and additional diagnostic tools, such as high-resolution, three-dimensional (3D) FLAIR sequence, T2-weighted (T2W) and T1-weighted (T1W) contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), MRI diffusion and perfusion imaging studies are useful to confirm the diagnosis in cases where it is not easy to perform histopathological examinations [1]. 1.2. Case Report: We present a clinical case of a 63-year-old female patient who presented with progressive cognitive deficit as mild motor aphasia, acalculia, agraphia, dyslexia and mild ideomotor apraxia without any signs of other organ involvement. It was known that the patient had 5-year anamnesis of chronic lymphocytic leukemia, stage II and splanchnic venous thrombosis 2 months ago. Blood biochemical analysis without any significant change, except leukocytosis in full blood count (leukocytes 15,2 x 10*9/L, where neutrophils were in normal range, but lymphocytes were increased). Head magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed pathological signal areas on the left parietal lobe with hypointense signal on contrast-enhanced T1-weighted, hyperintense signal on contrast-enhanced T2-weighted and FLAIR-weighted MRI images with restricted diffusion and slightly lower ADC value. Magnetic resonance perfusion imaging studies did not show an increase in cerebral blood flow or in cerebral blood volume. In this case, the patient’s diagnosis was made based on typical radiological features. 1.3. Conclusions: Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma is a rare subtype of extra nodal large B-cell lymphoma with an aggressive clinical course. The diagnosis is challenging, as it presents without any obvious tumour mass or lymphadenopathy. [2] As the clinical presentation is variable without specific characteristics, mostly biopsy or even autopsy confirms the definite diagnosis. But in some cases, the diagnosis can be made by typical radiological findings in the restricted availability of brain biopsy.

New design techniques for telecommunication payloads of space systems suitable for additive manufacturing in the context of large platforms
Authors:   , Hussain Jabir , Lopetegui Beregaña José María , Arnedo Gil Israel
Published: June 2023

In this thesis, microwave filters capable of handling high-power designed using novel synthesis method based on coupled-mode theory and inverse scattering technique and fabricated using metal additive manufacturing (AM) is presented with a view for space-based satellite applications. Microwave filter is one of the key components in a satellite payload system and as such its design and engineering requires careful consideration of various factors such as frequency range, size, weight, and power consumption limitations. The filters designed using classical methods usually suffer when operating in a wide frequency band and have low power handling capability. Thus, in this thesis, the novel synthesis technique which is general and flexible for any passive and causal frequency response is used to design filters having smooth-profile, which provides the advantage of supporting high-power. Such complex structures cannot be easily fabricated using traditional CNC methods and if done will require more time which increases the overall manufacturing cost. Thus, the smooth-profile variation of the filters is also orientated such that it is suitable to be fabricated using additive manufacturing in metal with ease. The coupled-mode theory, on which the synthesis technique is based, is used to characterise the electromagnetic behaviour of a non-uniform structure, such as a smooth-varying microwave filter, in terms of its coupling coefficients which is related through the coupled-mode equations to the physical dimensions of the structure. On the other hand, the inverse scattering technique, such as integral layer peeling method, is used to calculate the coupling coefficients from the target frequency response. Once designed, the filters are fabricated using Selective Laser Melting (SLM) technique which is one of the most commonly used metal-based AM technology. Various prototypes of the microwave filters, in both rectangular waveguide and microstrip technology, in different frequency range are considered and the results of their synthesis and fabrication are compared and analysed with the theoretical background where a high degree of agreement between them suggests the validity of the novel synthesis method and the fabrication technique.

Este texto plantea un estudio comparativo desde la tesis de “la banalidad del mal” de Hannah Arendt, a partir de dos personajes inscritos uno desde la literatura y el otro desde la filosofía moral. Por un lado, el personaje del poeta y piloto de la Fuerza Aérea en la dictadura militar de Augusto Pinochet, Carlos Wieder, que aparece en la novela Estrella distante (1996), del escritor chileno Roberto Bolaño, y, por el otro, el oficial nazi Adolf Eichmann y el conflicto político que generó su juicio penal en Jerusalén en 1961, luego de su captura en un suburbio de la ciudad de Buenos Aires, Argentina, en 1960. De esta manera, propongo un diálogo entre ambos personajes: uno literario, basado en aconte- cimientos históricos y ficticios, y la crítica desarrollada por la filósofa alemana Hannah Arendt, con indicios de filosofía política y moral, al acusado por críme- nes al pueblo judío, contra la humanidad y crímenes de guerra durante el régi- men nazi en la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Las reflexiones de Arendt, elaboradas ante la invitación a realizar un “relato de hechos” sobre el caso para la revista estadounidense The New Yorker durante el periodo del juicio, se publicaron en: Eichmann in Jerusalem.

Efficacy and Safety of Injection Sepsivac® (Heat-killed Mycobacterium W) in Gram-negative Sepsis administered via an Intravenous Route
Authors: Agrawal Rajat
Published: June 2023

Background: As an immunomodulator, the mycobacterium w (Mw) has improved outcomes for patients suffering from severe sepsis. The traditional route of administration for Mw is intradermal (ID), which is limited to administering 0.1 mL per injection (Inj). The intravenous (IV) route can be an alternative to ID. Aims and objectives: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of Inj Sepsivac® IV in gram-negative sepsis. Materials and methods: Present retrospective observational study was conducted in an intensive care unit (ICU) of tertiary care hospital. The study included 30 consecutive patients with presumed gram-negative sepsis within 48 hours of the first organ dysfunction. Patients received Inj Sepsivac® 0.3 mL diluted in 100 mL normal saline to be given as slow IV infusions over at least 15 minutes, every day for 3 consecutive days. Efficacy was assessed by recording the change in vital parameters, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, and laboratory investigations. Safety was evaluated by the occurrence of allergic reactions including anaphylaxis, the site of infection, and secondary infection. Each patient was followed up for 14 days from the day of enrolment. Results: Mean age of patients with gram-negative sepsis was 62.67 ± 12.77 years with male preponderance (63.3%). Pneumonia (40.1%) and intraabdominal infections (26.7%) were the most common etiologies of sepsis. A significant improvement in all the vitals and mean SOFA scores was observed from day 2 onward. More than half of the patients required ventilator support [17 (56.7%)], and mortality was observed in 7 (25%) patients. None was reported to have a secondary infection. Laboratory parameters improved and oxygen requirement was reduced postday 4 till the end of treatment from baseline. Conclusion: The IV route of administration was found to be efficacious and safe and allow ease of administration in treating gram-negative sepsis. Further large multicentric randomized trials are required to confirm our findings.

We describe the case of a patient who came with features suggestive of diabetic ketoacidosis. On further evaluation of DKA, we found that it was caused by acute pancreatitis. This acute pancreatitis was found to be caused by hypercalcemia, which was in turn due to primary hyperparathyroidism. Imaging studies done for hyperparathyroidism revealed a thyroid nodule which later turned out to be malignant. This patient was also incidentally found to have hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.

Objective: (1) To study cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) adenosine deaminase (ADA) and CSF C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in the differentiation of viral, pyogenic, and tuberculous meningitis (TBM). (2) To estimate the borderline levels of CRP in CSF in viral, pyogenic, and TBM. Methods: A prospective and cross-sectional study was conducted at the Department of Medicine, SRN Hospital, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, India, between August 2016 and September 2018. In this study, a total of 100 patients with meningitis were included applying specific inclusion and exclusion criteria after proper ethical approval. Results: Out of 100 patients, 61 were TBM, 31 were pyogenic meningitis, and eight were viral meningitis (VM). CSF CRP level was significantly increased in pyogenic meningitis (1.05 ± 0.36 mg/dL) compared to nonpyogenic meningitis [TBM (0.42 ± 0.13 mg/dL) and VM (0.37 ± 0.09 mg/dL)]. At the cut-off level of CRP in CSF > 0.6 mg/dL, its diagnostic sensitivity in pyogenic meningitis was 93.55% and specificity 94.20%. While CSF ADA levels were higher in the TBM group (13.32 ± 3.21 U/L) compared to the other two groups [pyogenic meningitis (6.15 ± 1.27 U/L) and VM (4.86 ± 0.88 U/L)]. At a cut-off, CSF ADA level of >10 U/L, its diagnostic sensitivity for TBM was 91.67% and specificity 90%. Conclusion: Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) CRP levels were found to be raised in pyogenic meningitis, and CSF ADA was found to be elevated in TBM. While both ADA level and CRP level in CSF are found low in VM.

Published: June 2023

Pulmonary aspergillosis is a well-recognized fungal lung disease caused by the Aspergillus species (especially Aspergillus fumigatus). Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is milder form of pulmonary aspergillosis compared to other more invasive forms. However, if left untreated, ABPA can cause significant lung damage. We present the case of a 33-year-old man who came with complaints of shortness of breath, chest discomfort, and productive cough. The patient underwent High Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) scan of the chest which, suggested the diagnosis of ABPA with secondary tension pneumothorax.

Authors: Balar Sanketkumar , Beke Nandkumar , Patki Dattatray , Bahulikar Arun , Phalgune Deepak
Published: June 2023

Background: The drawback of 24-hour urine collection is that it is troublesome, takes a lot of time, and is inaccurate because of collection errors and improper timing. The research in the Indian adult population about the correlation of spot urine protein/osmolality ratio (UPOR) and spot urine protein/creatinine ratio (UPCR) as a predictor of 24-hour urinary protein excretion is lacking. Objectives: To study the correlation of spot UPOR and spot UPCR as the prognosticator of 24-hour urinary protein excretion. Materials and methods: The present cross-sectional observational study was undertaken on 50 patients >18 years of age and of either sex who presented with proteinuria (dipstick test or urine routine) and were advised 24-hour urine protein examination. A 24-hour urine was collected for protein analysis starting from any time of day. Random urine samples were collected and processed for protein, creatinine, and osmolality. The spot UPOR and UPCR were calculated. The sensitivity and specificity were determined. Pearson’s correlation was used to find the correlation. Results: There was a statistically significant positive correlation of UPOR and UPCR (r = 0.418 and r = 0.512, respectively) with 24-hour urinary protein excretion. The sensitivity and specificity of UPOR to predict 24-hour urinary protein at cutoff point 1.32 was 82.3% and 81%, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of UPCR to predict 24-hour urinary protein at cutoff point 1.09 was 87 and 86%, respectively. Conclusion: For the medical determination of proteins in urine, spot UPOR and UPCR are suitable, cheap, and dependable methods that can substitute the measurement of 24-hour urine protein.

A maioria das metodologias para estimativa da erodibilidade contempla critérios determinados em laboratório e em campo, não havendo consenso para sua determinação, se tornando muito moroso em alguns casos. O presente trabalho aborda a erodibilidade em taludes de corte rodoviários, com a presença de horizontes com comportamento antagônicos entre si em relação a erosão. Para análise da erodibilidade foram realizados ensaios de caracterização em laboratório e a determinação de resistência ao cisalhamento em campo, por meio de mini vane test, sendo os resultados posteriormente correlacionados com o fator K de erodibilidade determinado com uso de metodologias indiretas. A erodibilidade mostrou relação expressiva com a resistência ao cisalhamento, onde horizontes suscetíveis à erosão possuem menores valores, reflexo direto de um conjunto de propriedades do solo, principalmente granulometria, plasticidade e teor de matéria orgânica. Por meio de análise de variância foi possível diferenciar os solos erodíveis dos não erodíveis, sendo que estes resultados também apresentaram correlação negativa significativa com o fator de erodibilidade. Portanto, a metodologia se mostrou promissora para estimar o potencial erodível de solos em campo.

No Brasil, as regras de exploração e de conservação da vegetação nativa estão instituídas no Novo Código Florestal, o registro das informações dos imóveis rurais é realizado através do Cadastro Ambiental Rural (CAR). O objetivo do estudo é desenvolver e avaliar uma metodologia para o mapeamento das inconsistências entre a cobertura e o uso da terra com Áreas de Preservação Permanente (APPs) averbadas no CAR. Para isso, foram utilizadas imagens Sentinel 1 e 2A. As bandas ópticas do Sentinel 2A com resolução espacial de 10 metros foram utilizadas no processo de segmentação, considerando os parâmetros limiar de similaridade e o Tamanho Mínimo do Objeto (TMO). A segmentação com a menor distância Euclidiana (D) foi utilizada na avaliação dos parâmetros do método Random Forest (RF). O desvio padrão das texturas Momento da Diferença Inversa e Variância foram os mais relevantes para discriminar as classes de cobertura e uso da terra. Para APPs averbadas com áreas menores que 1 módulo fiscal, num total de 95,96 hectares, a maior parte foi classificada como Campo e Mata nativa. Em áreas entre 1 e 2 módulos fiscais, total de 119,62 hectares, as classes mais predominantes também foram as classes Campo e Mata nativa.

Protecting the transaction from address-based tracking is one of the core issues in blockchain privacypreservation. In this paper, we propose a transaction framework through which the trader of a transactionorganization transacts on the blockchain public chain with privacy-enhancing; meanwhile, the manager gets access to the trader's transaction with access control based on cryptography. In the proposedframework, the hash-based one-time address is utilized to protect transactions from unauthorized tracking; furthermore, the hash-based one-time signature is creatively being used twice to verify and track thetransactions safely in the semi-honest model; through access control, the authorized managers can obtaintransaction information within their authorities. Compared with the standard Bitcoin transaction system, the proposed system achieves privacy-enhancing and post-quantum security.

Published: June 2023

Various industries have widespread adopted the intelligent customer service, thus how to understand customer intent more accurately and extract key information has become a current research hotspot. However, the features that customer service dialog texts are short length, specialization and sparse lead to the poor performance of traditional topic extraction. Based on the above background and characteristics, this paper proposes a topic model WCMUT-HDP, which is based on a weighted word co-occurrence matrix and user topic relations. In the WCMUT-HDP model, this paper introduces a semantically weighted word co-occurrence matrix to mine the statistical and semantic features of customer service texts and optimize the effect of clustering. For the structure of customer service dialogues, this paper introduces temporal and author attributes of customer service dialog into the topic recognition of customer service texts. This method helps us to accurately extracts the user's intention. WCMUT-HDP is based on the Dirichlet process, and does not need to specify the number of topics in advance, which saving the time overhead of parameter experiments and evaluation. In the end of this paper, the experimental results show that the WCMUT-HDP model can effectively identify the topics of customer service conversations, and the extracted topics can accurately reflect the user's conversational intent.
