Of the oral diseases that affect horses, dental occurrences are the most relevant in veterinary practice. The objective of this work was to carry out assessments of the oral cavity of traction horses and military personnel, with emphasis on the analysis of the leveling of the incisor teeth, in order to characterize the main periodontal diseases caused by their alteration. The procedures were carried out in the city of Imperatriz - MA, where 41 horses were evaluated, 30 for traction and 11 for military use. It was observed that the causes of misalignment in both groups were diagonal and ladder bite, ventral and dorsal curvature, diastema, oligodontia, wear due to aerophagia, brachygnathism and prognathism. In both groups, the presence of periodontal disease secondary to malocclusion or diastema was identified. It is observed that the evaluation of the oral cavity of horses is extremely important, because these animals have continuous eruption of teeth, they usually present occlusion changes, which can lead to more serious conditions, causing damage to their health.

Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Nkana Enoh
Published: April 2023

Problem Limited research exists regarding the professional development program processes and components used to train instructors to equip students with intellectual and developmental disabilities to receive greater support and access to the benefits of a postsecondary educational experience. Purpose of the Study The principal purpose of this research was to conduct a multiple case study of inclusive postsecondary education (IPSE) programs known as Transition Programs for Students with Intellectual Disabilities (TPSID) and/or Comprehensive Transition Programs (CTP) at institutions of higher education across the United States to examine training provided to instructors teaching students with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) who were enrolled in typical college courses. Method A qualitative, multiple case study design was used. Five IPSE programs across the United States comprised the sample for this study. Two types of sampling were used: convenience sampling and non-probability or purposeful sampling. Convenience sampling was used to select the five IPSE programs based on their willingness to participate and provide the needed documents for analysis. Purposeful sampling was used to select the interview participants based on their ability to provide the most insight and understanding of the instructor training processes. To provide a comprehensive examination of the four research questions related to the training development, components, implementation, and evaluation processes for instructors teaching IPSE program students in typical college courses, interviews of the training affiliates, training observations, and document analysis were conducted within the five programs. Results There is no unified approach to the training of instructors teaching students with IDD in IPSE programs. However, similarities exist in the training development, implementation, and evaluation processes used across programs. In conjunction with knowledge, skills, and practices, potential barriers to success such as the attitudes of instructors must be addressed. The roles of training affiliates in the development, implementation, and evaluation of the training were described. Conclusions The landscape of higher education is changing to provide access and inclusive learning opportunities to a more diverse group of students. There is hope that the institutions of higher education will begin to adopt the teaching and learning practices that best meet the needs of the new and growing group of learner types. Although there has been some progress, much work remains to be done to ensure that instructors are equipped to support the success of students with IDD and other diverse learners.
Marketing Adventist Higher Education in North America : College Choice - Motivators and Barriers
Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Dart George
Published: April 2023

Purpose/Problem It is estimated more than 75% of Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) college-bound students (rising freshmen) who live in the North American Division (NAD) do not attend an SDA college/university. This is a major challenge for the NAD colleges/universities. Discovering motivators and barriers for SDA college-bound students is vital in understanding what influences this population in their college choice selection. Method This is a quantitative, cross-sectional, comparative study. An electronic survey using Qualtrics was sent to over 14,000 students with 461 respondents as the sample size. Respondents were sorted into four study groups, using the type of high school attended and the type of college selected to attend. Comparisons of SDA college awareness, college choice motivators and barriers, and composition of messaging were analyzed using Chi-square, standard residuals, and perceptual maps. Results Rising freshmen who selected to attend a non-SDA college considered quality of education and price/cost as important criteria in college choice selection. Rising freshmen who selected to attend an SDA college considered spiritual life on campus and quality of education as important criteria in college choice selection. Lack of awareness of NAD SDA colleges/universities is a major obstacle. Students who do not attend a SDA academy and chose to attend a non-SDA college, are more than two times less aware of SDA colleges/universities than students who do attend a SDA academy. The lack of awareness correlates to these students reporting low or no recruitment activities from SDA colleges/universities. It appears the lack of a database of school-age church members is a major barrier. Conclusion This was a comparative study of Sauder’s (2008). The studies collected data 13 years apart. Both studies discovered a lack of awareness among rising freshmen. In order to increase enrollment at SDA colleges/universities, the SDA denomination must prioritize the creation of a robust database with all members, but especially those who are school age which includes elementary, high school and college/post college. It must be updated and maintained consistently. Research must continue on a regular, basis and not have lapses of such great length. This would assist with updated strategies created for messaging, recruiting, marketing and advertising. The colleges/universities and SDA denomination must appreciate this as a continuous collaborative effort.

Background: Chronic respiratory diseases impose a significant socioeconomic burden on individuals and communities and are severely overlooked compared to other non-communicable diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, and diabetes. This study aimed to investigate the mortality rate and years of life lost due to respiratory diseases in northern Iran. Methods: The documentary research method was used and data were collected using the census. The population included all deaths registered in the Department of Health, Golestan University of Medical Sciences in Iran during 2014-2018. Results: Between 2014 and 2018, 2462 deaths due to respiratory diseases were recorded in Golestan Province, of which 1416 people (57.5%) were men and 1046 people (42.5%) were women. The Mean±SD age of death was 62.28±26.29 years, with an Mean±SD of 62.56±25.32 years for men and 61.90±27.56 years for women. The highest number of deaths due to respiratory diseases in all the studied years was in men and women aged 80 years and above (28.7% and 31.1%, respectively). Approximately, 6864 years of life were lost due to premature death during this period, with men (3511 years, 7.2 per 1,000) contributing more than women (3353 years, 7.2 per 1,000). Conclusion: Given the rapid increase in population and given that the crucial risk factors for respiratory diseases are smoking, exposure to pollutants, and allergens, more comprehensive research seems necessary throughout Iran. In addition, this study was designed before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, and due to changes that this pandemic has caused in the mortality rate, therefore, it is recommended to investigate the trend of mortality by respiratory diseases during this pandemic.
Comparativo de custos de implantação de pavimento convencional e pavimento permeável
Authors: Mello Fernanda Barbosa Gomes , Rigo Daniel
Published: April 2023

Pavimentos permeáveis (PP) são sistemas que buscam minimizar o impacto gerado pela pavimentação, facilitando a infiltração de águas pluviais e reduzindo o escoamento superficial. Pode-se, ainda, acrescentar outras vantagens ao uso de PP, tais como: remoção de poluentes da água infiltrada, aumento da segurança da via, entre outros. Apesar das vantagens, o PP é uma solução pouco usada no Brasil. Sabe-se que o custo de implantação é um dos fatores que influenciam na escolha do tipo de pavimento, sendo assim, o presente estudo propôs comparar os custos de implantação de PP com bloco de concreto poroso (PPBCP) aos custos de implantação do pavimento convencional com bloco de concreto (PCBC). Projetou-se um loteamento residencial que foi utilizado como base para o dimensionamento dos dois tipos de pavimento, seguindo diretrizes da norma ABNT NBR 16.416/2015. Verificou-se que a implantação do PPBCP pode ser até 35,82% mais cara que a implantação do PCBC, mas pode ser até 2,4% mais barata, no caso de infiltração total. Atribui-se, essa diferença, ao incremento gerado pelo preço do bloco de concreto poroso, pela espessura da camada de base e sub-base e pelos dispositivos auxiliares como drenos e mantas. Conclui-se que o custo de implantação do PPBCP, na maioria das hipóteses estudadas, é maior que o custo de implantação do PCBC, contudo, ressalta-se a importância de se considerar as vantagens dos PPs, com destaque para sua atuação na redução do impacto da urbanização no ciclo hidrológico urbano, o que representa economia nas instalações de drenagem a jusante.

A pandemia impactou no isolamento social. Contudo, trouxe benefícios como o contato maior com a família. Para o enfrentamento do diagnóstico de câncer, as mulheres estudadas contaram com um suporte social e espiritual, por meio de apoio emocional, recursos materiais e práticos, recebidos de familiares e pessoas significativas. Estas são estratégias que precisam ser exploradas pela equipe multiprofissional no momento do diagnóstico, minimizando o impacto e acolhendo as demandas apresentadas pelas mulheres com câncer de mama.
Does Media Format Matter? Investigating the Toxicity, Sentiment and Topic of Audio Versus Text Social Media Messages
Authors: Li Jamy , Penaranda Valdivia Karen
Published: April 2023

Audio messaging and voice-based interactions are growing in popularity. Lexical features of a manually-curated dataset of real-world audio tweets, as well as text and video/image tweets from the same user accounts, are analyzed to explore how user-generated audio differs from text. The toxicity, sentiment, topic and length of audio tweet transcripts are compared with their accompanying text, date-matched text tweets from the same users and date-matched video/image tweets and their accompanying text. Audio tweets were significantly less toxic than both text tweets and text that accompanied the audio tweet, as well as significantly lower sentiment than their accompanying text. The topics and word counts of audio, text and video/image tweets also differed. These findings are then used to derive design implications for audio and conversational agent interaction. This research contributes preliminary insights about audio social media messages that may help researchers and designers of audio- and agent-based interaction better understand and design for different media formats.
Performance Assessment of Nano-enhanced Phase Change Material for Thermal Storage
Authors: Daneshazarian Reza , Antoun Sylvie , Dworkin Seth
Published: April 2023

The use of nano phase change material in thermal energy storage applications appears promising, but the often-poor performance and the lack of understanding of the heat transfer mechanisms interconnectedness remains a challenge and hinders their widespread integration. The existing numerical work has unveiled numerous impediments in predicting the actual melting behaviour. They rarely combine the effects of conduction enhancement, convection degradation, and latent heat reduction, due to inaccurate characterization of the thermophysical properties and the limitations of their model assumptions. In the present study, an enhanced numerical approach was developed to investigate the melting performance of xGnP-octadecane filled in a vertical cylindrical enclosure at different weight concentrations. The model results for the pure phase change material were compared and validated against the experimental data. The progression of the melting front, temperature probes, energy storage capacity and heat transfer rate of the nano phase change material were thoroughly evaluated. The current numerical observations demonstrate that the addition of nanoparticles improves, up to a critical concentration of 0.5wt%, the melting rate. The results showed that by adding 0.5wt% of xGnP in the base phase change material (octadecane), the melting rate decreases by 9.7% and the heat storage rate increases by 12.6%. However, at higher loadings, the heat transfer rate is deteriorated due to worsening of other thermophysical properties provoking the prevalence of viscous forces over natural convection and latent capacity. The system overall efficacy was found to be dependent on the net effects of relative changes of all thermophysical properties with nanoparticle concentration and temperature in the solid, so called mushy, and liquid zones. Finally, when characterizing nano phase change material, the thermal conductivity cannot be considered alone as a criterion for nano phase change material selection. A high thermal conductivity is needed for maximum heat absorption in thermal transport applications. Nevertheless, low viscosity, high latent heat and specific heat capacities are also essential to ensure a better thermal energy storage efficiency in terms of capacity and heat extraction/release rate.
The Influence of Geometry on the Performance of a Helical Steel Pile as a Geo-Exchange System

Published: April 2023

Foundation piles have the potential to improve the economic and technical feasibility of ground source heat pump (GSHP) systems. They simultaneously provide structural support and energy for space heating and cooling. In this study, a thoroughly verified and validated numerical model of a novel in-ground heat exchanger for GSHP systems is developed and used to simulate and optimize performance. Commercially available helical steel casings with nominal sizes according to the American Petroleum Institute (API) of API 13.5, API 23, API 29, API 53, API 60, and API 68 were considered. The flow rates considered were 1 L/min, 2 L/min and 4 L/min for laminar flow and lower pressure drops. Results show the performance to increase with increasing pile size owing to improved heat transfer and longer residence times. Optimizing performance with an API 68 steel casing, (with a 2” nominal plastic pipe) gives a capacity increase of 0.01 ton/pile (or 8.3%), which would reduce the approximate pile array required for a 3 ton cooling system from 13 to 12. Doubling the size of this pile while keeping other parameters constant gives an 18.5% capacity improvement with an output capacity of 0.28 ton/pile, and an 11, 20 m pile array requirement to meet a 3 ton cooling load. With a maximum heat exchange rate of 58.6 W per meter depth, this shallow in-ground heat exchanger has the potential to minimize energy and costs for small-scale implementation. In addition, the possible low flow rates help reduce pumping power requirements. This study provides a foundation for sizing and design of helical steel piles. Moreover, the study also gives insights into pile performance in multi-layered soils where the thermal conductivity varies with depth.

Published: April 2023

To avoid the catastrophic results of climate change, a major shift towards clean, sustainable and renewable energy technologies is inevitable. Since buildings are capable of on-site thermal energy generation and exhibiting predictive patterns of heating and cooling, many attempts are currently underway to incorporate more renewable energy (e.g., geothermal heating and cooling) systems in buildings. Subsurface geothermal resources represent a great potential for direct use of energy; put another way, the planet is a six sextillion (10²¹) metric ton battery that is continually being replenished by solar radiation, lightning, and heat from its deep-down molten core. Despite the enormous energy potential, geothermal systems are not adopted widely due to three main reasons: high drilling costs, energy imbalance in the ground, and lack of drilling space. To address these challenges, a novel foundation-based geothermal heat exchanger system incorporating phase change material (PCM) has been designed. The proposed technology, utilizing a foundation caisson, reduces the construction and installation costs by integrating energy and structural systems together into a single ground installation. The present study aims to characterize the thermal performance of the proposed system through a numerical model that is validated and calibrated using the experimental data generated from a demonstration site that hosts a foundation caisson. Efficacy of the use of PCM on improving the thermal performance of the system is characterized in terms of energy savings and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction. Sensitivity studies demonstrate improvement in the performance of the caisson with the use of PCM with increased thermal conductivity. Also, as the seasonal heat injection to extraction ratio deviates further away from unity, the PCM helps improve the thermal performance as evidenced through reduced primary energy consumption.
Theory of Mind on Ghazali and Ibn Qayyim Al Jauzi Perspective: Analysis Model on Islamic Psychology
Authors: Rahmadi Muhammad Alif
Published: April 2023

The concept of mind was the main issue of philosophical debates on human psychology. In Islamic Psychology, this concept has been discussed long ago by prominent scholars in Islam, both are explained well by Imam al-Ghazali and Ibn Qayyim al-Jauziyyah. This study uses library research with content analysis methods. Hence, this study produces various fundamental ideas. According to Imam al-Ghazali, the human mind has a very influential role in the dynamic movement of human psychology because the mind is a power of knowledge that determines the quality of life. The human mind is called ‘aql, it has a holistic dimension and is interrelated with other spiritual organs. These spiritual organs are called the heart (qalb), spirit (ruh), and soul (nafs). The balance of mind at work affects the mental health that wanted to be achieved. Meanwhile, Ibn Qayyim al-Jauziyyah explained that the human mind is a gift given to humans as a guide for life. If this gift is not used correctly, humans will lose their identity and overlook many problems. The dimensions of thinking according to Ibn Qayyim are tafakkur, tadabbur, and ta'aqqul as contemplative efforts in shaping mental health. This effort can be likened to mindfulness in today's psychology, as clarity of mind with a focus on the present moment. In this way, both of them contribute scientifically with quite strategic exertions, combining the dynamics of the mind holistically to shape human health and well-being.

Combined Use of Aerial Remote Sensing and Terrestrial Survey in ICAO eTOD's Electronic Terrain- and Obstacle Data Collection
Authors: Bagdi Zsolt , Bakó Gábor , Molnár Zsolt
Published: April 2023

Maintaining and enhancing aviation safety at all times is an essential factor at various airports around the world. It is not enough to keep it at that level, as we also see from history that the volume of air traffic doubles almost every 15 years. The number of aircraft in traffic is constantly increasing, and airport infrastructure needs to be developed. Consequently, the challenges for aviation are also greater. Electronic Terrain- and Obstacle Data Collection (eTOD) at airports and their surroundings are an essential procedure for aviation safety that aims to organize databases of potentially dangerous flight obstacles. The process is based on passive optical aerial remote sensing from a fixed-wing aircraft. With the help of point cloud and geoinformatics software created during the processing of in-flight recordings and additional data, strictly defined terrain- and obstacle data can be organized into databases, the format of which is regulated by international standards and documents, according to which the obstacle database can be used internationally. These data sets are needed not only because they are required by law, but also because they form the basis for the design of various aircraft procedures and make a major contribution to safe aviation.

Para tal efecto se describe la evolución de las relaciones entre estos ámbitos de gobierno en las últimas tres dé­cadas, distinguiendo ingresos y gastos. Una segunda parte del trabajo trata de in­troducir los elementos teóricos fundamentales que puedan ser útiles para entender el estado actual de estas relaciones en México y su posible evolución en el futuro; se trata además de identificar las tendencias y los riesgos. La conclusión central es que se requiere de una mayor participación de los gobiernos estatales en el proceso de recaudación de impuestos y una redefinición del papel del gobierno federal.

El objetivo del trabajo es proponer una alternativa de desarrollo municipal al utilizar insumos orgánicos locales en sistemas en rotación de cultivos 2:1 (alfalfa y maíz nativo). Se analizó el desempeño de la fertilidad química edáfica de tres insumos locales (vermicomposta, paja de alfalfa, rastrojo de maíz). En invernadero se sembró ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam) uti­lizando contenedores de 2.5 l (2.5 dm3) con tezontle, vermiculita, perlita, peat-moss y suelo agrícola. El estudio se realizó del 15 de enero al 15 de febrero de 2017; el diseño experimental fue en bloques al azar con tres tra­tamientos (vermicomposta madura y estabilizada, paja de alfalfa y rastrojo de maíz) obtenidos in situ aplicando cinco dosis equivalentes (1, 3, 6 9 y 12 t ha-1) a cada tratamiento, cinco repeticiones y un testigo. Se midió el desarrollo vegetativo del ryegrass a los 30 días después de la siembra (dds). Para el análisis e interpretación de los resultados se utilizaron mode-
EL PAPEL DEL EURO EN EL SISTEMA FINANCIERO INTERNACIONAL: ALGUNAS APROXIMACIONES TEÓRICAS

El surgimiento y puesta en circulación del euro puede definirse como uno de los acontecimientos más importantes acaecidos en el Sistema Financiero Internacional (SFI). La decisión tomada por un grupo de países al adoptar una moneda común es un hecho inédito, que implica cambios sustanciales en el diseño y funcionamiento del SFI, inclusive trasciende esta esfera y el ámbito geográfico europeo para implicar cambios a nivel mucho más glo­bal, ya sea en el plano sectorial como en el conjunto de países que actual­mente integran la economía mundial. Acorde con lo anterior, el objetivo de este trabajo es el de explicar el rol del euro en el SFI, lo que incluye una explicación del actual SFI y la función internacional que la moneda europea juega en el mismo, es decir, como moneda de endeudamiento y de préstamo, estudiando si se desarrolla más rápidamente que su función comercial internacional. Se empleará el método científico bajo un enfoque cualitativo y alcance exploratorio y descriptivo, las herramientas a emplear serán el análisis del contenido y el pensamiento crítico haciendo uso de la modalidad de ensayo de investigación científica. Entre los resultados obtenidos de este análisis, es que se aprecian importantes repercusiones en las relaciones comerciales, financieras y en la propia integración que se evi­dencian a nivel de la economía internacional en su conjunto y también en otras regiones geográficas, más allá de Europa, como es el caso de los países de Europa del Este que se han incorporado a la Unión Europea (UE) en fecha reciente, y otras regiones con vínculos históricos estrechos con este continente, como las naciones latinoamericanas o los países de África y el Pacífico. Se concluye que la creciente utilización del euro como moneda de reserva internacional a modo de diversificación de reservas o carteras de inversión por parte de otras naciones, donde sobresale por su importancia el caso de China, conllevará a una mayor estabilidad en el SFI.

Desde su introducción por consultores a principios de los ochenta y poste­riormente al ámbito académico a principios de los noventa, el término de cadena de suministro ha ganado mucha atención. Un punto importante dentro de la cadena de suministro es la integración entre los participantes de la misma, por lo que en esta investigación se explican algunas teorías relacionados con la integración de la cadena de suministro. El objetivo del artículo es analizar algunas de las teorías que influyen en la integración de la cadena de suministro y determinar cuáles son sus principales aportacio­nes al entendimiento de esta actividad. Se hizo una revisión de la litera­tura encontrando aportaciones sustanciales teorías como el Resource-Based View, teoría de los costos de transacción, teoría de la elección estratégica y la teoría de la ventaja colaborativa.

Las contribuciones son la base de todas personas físicas y morales y sa­bemos que el pago de impuestos es obligación de todos, por lo cual la imposición de las contribuciones a todo contribuyente y no contribuyente refiriéndonos a las personas morales sin fines lucrativos haciendo énfasis en que ellos también deben de aportar para el gasto público de una manera u otra, pero sabemos bien que éstas pueden ser donatarias y que deben de regirse bajo el reglamento que marca el Servicio de Administración Tribu­taria (SAT), y que si llegan a incumplir en alguno de los lineamientos con todas las facilidades de inmediato pueden perder esta autorización. Las donatarias autorizadas (DA) son muy codiciadas desde 2014 donde la Ley del Impuesto Sobre la Renta (LISR) impone que aunque se encuentre en el Título III pero si no eres DA en automático pasas al Título II, es decir al Régimen General de Personas Morales.

Con el objetivo de diseñar una pirámide cuadrangular de base y apotema iguales al Número Áureo, se calcularon las Secciones Áureas para  relacionarlas con las Constantes Físicas Universales y sus vínculos con la Física Cuántica. Existe poca información que expongan las propiedades de los prismas en relación al efecto fotoeléctrico. Se realizó una compilación bibliográfica y revisión audiovisual para analizar los contenidos temáticos.
Para el diseño geométrico se utilizaron los programas: Autocad (ver. 2017), el editor matemático Daun Equation Editor (ver. 2018) y la calculadora Magic Number 2 (ver. 2018). La pirámide diseñada es geométricamente armónica y matemáticamente contiene valores puros. Existe una relación que asocia al Número Áureo con el Número de Balmer (B), la Constante de la Estructura Fina (α) y la Constante de Rydberg (Rh). Estas re­laciones desvelan las propiedades de un prisma de cristal (pirámide) que refracta un rayo de luz para revelar que la luz blanca está compuesta por los colores del arcoíris, perturbación ondulatoria electromagnética que se percibe a través de nuestra vista y que se observa por medio del proceso de dispersión. Los resultados de este trabajo permitirán exponer la analogía geométrica de un prisma en relación a la física cuántica.

El objetivo del trabajo es proponer una alternativa de sustentabilidad am­biental mediante el uso de vermicomposta orgánica en el estado de Mi­choacán, México. El estudio se desarrolló del 01 de agosto al 30 de sep­tiembre de 2018. Se realizó una revisión documental para el análisis sobre la eficiencia agronómica de la vermicomposta orgánica utilizada como fer­tilizante en suelos agrícolas y su importancia en los sistemas de producción agropecuaria. Para la interpretación de los resultados se analizó el desem­peño de la vermicomposta para contrastar su eficiencia agronómica con insumos orgánicos derivados de residuos de cosecha procedentes del maíz y de alfalfa; para probar la hipótesis se emplearon modelos estadísticos y matemáticos que sustentan la confiabilidad del diseño experimental. Con este trabajo se expone la analogía que existe entre el desarrollo sustentable en términos ambientales al utilizar vermicomposta orgánica, como una información válida para el manejo de los sistemas de producción agrope­cuaria.
