A Method to Determine the Feed Conversion Coefficient in Farm Pigs
Authors: Stass V. L.
Published: August 2023

The aim of this study was to find out a formula for the feed conversion coefficient which is applicable solely to farm pigs. The study was performed by applying a hybrid model of growth of pigs. The model of growth of animals in this research was not advanced, it was published elsewhere. In this study only necessary equations of the model were used. Feed conversion coefficient is a complicated trait. In this research the usually used formula of feed conversion coefficient was revised and transformed. In the study three features of feed conversion were analysed. The reason to distinct the three case studies was that the feed conversion coefficient differs in the same weight pigs under condition that one is a growing animal but other reached its maximum weight. The first case study concerns pigs that reached their maximum weight. The second case study concerns growing animals in a limited weight range. Third one considers a general case; weight range from weaning up to maximum weight. There are three results in this study. The first one suggests a formula for the average feed conversion coefficient in pigs which reached their maximum weight. The second result suggests a formula of the average feed conversion coefficient for growing animals in a limited weight range. Third result suggests a formula of the average feed conversion coefficient for pigs in any weight range between 30 ± 6 kg, and maximum weight.

Published: August 2023

This study aims to examine the effect of e-taxation (eTax) use on taxpayer compliance (TPC) and taxpayer satisfaction (TPS). To achieve this objective, this study used taxpayer satisfaction as a moderating variable. Using a questionnaire survey, this study was carried out on 309 tax accounts as a sample at 33 tax service locations in West Java. The data of this study were explained via the use of structural equation modelling and verification. Based on the data analysis, this study showed that the use of electronic tax filing and the level of taxpayers’ satisfaction had a considerable impact in a positive direction on taxpayer compliance. This study also shows that the influence of e-taxation on taxpayer compliance is successfully moderated by the level of satisfaction reported by taxpayers. This study implies that eTax may increase the satisfaction that taxpayers feel while meeting their tax responsibilities, despite the fact that this effect is not as significant as the effect that it has on taxpayer compliance. The e-taxation system must be improved in accordance with the tax administration business process in order to make it easier and more trusted by its users, hence increasing taxpayer compliance.

In our institute we have four hostels and all having their own individual mess, where daily a large amount of kitchen waste is obtained which can be utilized for better purposes. Biogas production requires Anaerobic digestion. Project was to Create an Organic Processing Facility to create biogas which will be more cost effective, eco-friendly, cut down on land fill waste, generate a high-quality renewable fuel, and reduce carbon dioxide & methane emissions. Overall, by creating a biogas reactor on campus in the backyard of our hostels will be beneficial. Kitchen (food waste) was collected from different hostels of PACE IT & S Mess as feed stock for our reactor which works as an aerobic digester system to produce biogas energy. The anaerobic digestion of kitchen waste produces biogas, a valuable energy resource Anaerobic digestion is a microbial process for production of biogas, which consist of Primarily methane (CH4) & carbon dioxide (CO2). Biogas can be used as energy source and also for numerous purposes. But any possible applications require knowledge & information about the composition and quantity of constituents in the biogas produced. The continuously-fed digester requires addition of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to maintain the alkalinity and pH to 7. For this reactor we have prepared our Inoculum than we installed batch reactors, to which inoculum of previous cow dung slurry along with the kitchen waste was added to develop our own Inoculum. A combination of these mixed inoculum was used for biogas production at 37°C in laboratory (small scale) reactor (20L capacity) In our study, the production of biogas and methane is done from the starch-rich and sugary material and is determined at laboratory scale using the simple digesters.

From the beginning, binders such as red mud mortar, lime mortar, cement mortar, etc., played a major role. It has been found that the production of cement increases the quantity of uncontrollable CO2 emissions. Another adhesive that can be used in place of cement is geopolymer. Because geopolymer concrete may reduce carbon emissions, the concrete business could grow sustainably and prosper as a result. This technology has the potential to reduce CO2 emissions from the construction sector by up to 80%. To make the binder for geo polymer concrete, alkaline solutions are used to activate sources of materials rich in silica (Si) and aluminium (Al), such as fly ash, GGBS, etc. Geopolymer-made concrete includes no cement at all. In this study, we attempted to determine the compressive strength and durability properties of geopolymer concrete using various molarities of 8M, 10M, and 12M along with Sodium Silicate solution. The alkaline activators used were Sodium hydroxide (NaOH), Potassium hydroxide (KOH), and combination of both (50%NaOH + 50%KOH). To achieve the highest pH value for better mechanical and durability characteristics, chemical analysis is done. After 7 and 28 days of age, the Compression and Permeability experiments were conducted. The GPC's strength and durability characteristics were contrasted with those of conventional concrete.

Published: August 2023

From the establishment of Ahmad Shah Durrani's government in Kandahar, Afghanistan had become a completely independent country in the region. For this reason, the first rulers of this country come to power and acted as king, which resulted in the domination of foreign countries, especially England, in Afghanistan some of the king or ruler, like Shah Zaman Durrani, was very interested in conquering the northern and northwestern regions of India. On this issue, in the early year of 1797, Shah Zaman sent a message to Marquis Wesley, the Governor General of the East India Company, informing him of his decision to conquer the northern parts of India and inviting him to help push the Maratha tribe back to the Deccan and cooperate with Afghan forces. Finally, these actions imposed a series of agreements on Afghanistan that are still in place today. During the first period of Shah Shuja's reign, 1804-1809, the first treaty that was imposed, called the Peshawar Treaty, was signed by the representatives of Afghanistan and England, Alfinstin from England, Muhammad Akram, Amin Mulk, and Abul Hasan, the treasurer of Shah Shuja, on June 17, 1809, in Peshawar. The British signed three treaties with Shah Shuja. The Treaty of Peshawar, Treaty of Lahore, and Treaty of Kandahar, in all three of these treaties Shah Shuja was in different conditions. The colonialist actions of the British caused a lot of opposition from the people and governments of Afghanistan, and among all the colonial powers of that time, the European country was the first country that paid special attention to Afghanistan and its foreign policy and was still earlier than others in its internal affairs. Interfered, Britain was controlled by the East India Company from India, the said company had been able to develop its political, military, and economic influence in the land of India until the end of the 18th century. One of the most important reasons for the three wars between the two countries was the policy of development and advancement of Britain and protecting India from powers like Russia and France, and also the competition between the two empires of Russia and England in Central Asia, which led to British aggression in the territory of Afghanistan and Taking many parts of these lands was imposed by signing treaties and contracts.

Published: August 2023

Women, who make up half of the society, have an undeniable effect on the development and transformation of nations. The illiteracy of this great human group will cause irreparable damages to the society and will cause the country to fall behind the caravan of modern civilized societies. Because educated mothers have an indisputable effectiveness and efficiency in the proper education of the future generations and will result in improved general level of literacy in the society. In Islam, there is no Sharia barrier for women's education and many religious texts have emphasized the necessity of women's education. The history of Islamic culture has recorded many eminent women who have played an important role in promoting Islamic culture. Since the mission of professors of educational institutions requires them to reflect the objective issues of society in their scientific works, therefore, in this article, an attempt has been made to examine the necessity of women's education, solutions to improve it, and the consequences of banning women from education.

Introduction: Endometriosis is a medical condition in which there is abnormal growth of tissue resembling the endometrium outside the uterus. It can cause symptoms of pain and/or infertility. The current medical therapy focuses on reducing estradiol levels or stimulating progesterone response. One of the most effective options for medical treatment is the use of GnRH analogs. Dienogest have a direct anti-inflammatory effect on endometriotic stromal cells. However, a comparison of the anti-inflammatory effects of these drugs on IFN-Ɣ has not been previously investigated. Therefore, this study aims to compare the effects of reducing IFN-Ɣ by both Dienogest and Leuprolide Acetat in a mouse model.
Material and Methods: This study employed a post-test only control group design and involved 4 groups, namely the negative control group, positive control group, and two treatment groups: one group administered Dienogest at a dosage of 0.0052 milligrams per day for 14 days, and the other administered Leuprolide Acetat at a dosage of 0.00975 milligrams once every 5 days for a period of 14 days. Serum IFN-Ɣ levels were measured using Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). The data were subsequently analyzed using IBM SPSS 25 with One-Way ANOVA test.
Results: This study demonstrated that Leuprolide Acetat significantly decreased serum levels of IFN-Ɣ, whereas Dienogest actually increased the levels .
Conclusion: In a mouse model of endometriosis (Mus musculus), Leuprolide Acetat effectively reduced the levels of IFN-Ɣ (pro-inflammatory). Conversely, Dienogest increased the levels of IFN-Ɣ (anti-inflammatory) in the mouse model of endometriosis.

Published: August 2023

This article addresses the issue of lexical similarities between some Kwa languages of Côte d'Ivoire. These languages often use the same item or an item whose pronunciation differs only by one phoneme or one syllable to designate the same reality. We analyze this phenomenon using the notion of linguistic intersection. The aim is to facilitate the choice and teaching of these languages. . To achieve our objectives, this study falls within the general framework of sociolinguistics and language teaching, using comparative linguistics. Through a few items from the six Kwa languages of our work, we proceeded to a lexico-semantic crossing to arrive at the following results: our research revealed two types of (linguistic) lexico-semantic intersection: nominal items having the same meaning are phonetically either totally or partially identical. Keywords : linguistic intersection, language didactics

Cosmophany is a concept from the mesological theory of landscape developed by Augustin Berque, which deals with the ways in which a landscape reality appears to a subject. Our study, « Landscape cosmophany in Ponge's poetry », focuses on the different trajections (perceptions) of landscape in Ponge's poetry. In a corpus of four poetic texts, 'Le lézard', 'Bords de mer', 'La Seine' and 'Carnet du bois de pins', we will attempt to elucidate the threefold constitution of landscape and Ponge's lyrical renewal through two modern approaches to landscape, Augustin Berque's mesology and Michel Collot's landscape-thinking, This article sets out to show how the notion of landscape is accompanied by a new categorisation of living. Keywords: Francis Ponge, cosmophany, landscape, mesology, lyricism.

Published: August 2023

Paraná Coast has 90 kilometers of coastline with an approximate population of 4,256 artisanal fishermen who carry out their activities in the bays and in the open sea, most of them classified as small fishermen, who historically have an asymmetrical distribution of commercialization profits imposed by retailers. Thus, in view of the need to establish new patterns of fish commercialization in the region, this research aimed to carry out a case study related to the fair trade of fish in this region. Descriptive exploratory research was carried out with 10 (ten) fishermen and the management of the only regional company that includes the practice of fair trade in its values. The study revealed that positive factors, especially security in commercial relations, fair value paid for fish and valuation of family labor, were the issues most valued by the interviewed fishermen. In relation to the negative factors, the company not absorbing the entire production, the time to pay for the production and the limited hours for delivering the fish, were the most cited issues, however they were not classified as situations that could be factors of rupture of the business process. Finally, the analysis of the fairtrade system adopted in the investigated company, allows to consider that it was installed, empirically tested and has had positive results, and can be classified in fact as a fairtrade practitioner. This model can be classified as an alternative development tool or model to the dominant neoliberal model in Brazil that can be replicated in whole or in part in other fishing regions.

Reconstruction of Communicative Rationality: A Study on the Digital Mass Media Society in Indonesia
Authors: Priadi Ribut , Thariq Muhamma
Published: August 2023

Purpose: This study looked at the cognitive response of Indonesian society (i.e. people using digital media) to narratives constructed by digital media.   Theoretical framework: It is necessary to establish an argumentative relationship of "communication" between digital media and society, since the narratives constructed by digital media are particular interests.   Method: This study used a qualitative approach, conducting a sociological analysis of narratives in the community of digital mass media users, especially mass resources for convergence (kompas.com, tempo.co and tribunnews.com). The technique of triangulation of technical sources and theories to demonstrate the validity of narrative data of people using digital media.   Results and Conclusions: The digital society can create and create imaginary spaces based on its law and culture. Therefore, a word of "communication" between the two is needed to come to terms with rational language. This relationship is a communication society based on the value of emancipatory critical rationality to achieve "consensus". Therefore, the problem posed in this study is: "how is the cognitive response and shape of the digital society in Indonesia, within the age of digital media?".   Research Implications: Knowing the digital narrative of the media is solid and changes its passive role to be "interactive" (in itself as a subject) with the media. Right now, the community doesn't have much resilience.    Originality/value: Meanwhile, the relationship between digital society and communication technology has three options, namely, first, digital society positions itself as technology; second, humanize technology as itself; and third, dialectically compromising the potential of humanity and technology.

Blogs and narratives in education: Deciphering me
Authors: Iop Maria Cristina Rigão , Rigão Maria Helena
Published: August 2023

Using as a theoretical basis the paradigm of complexity, supported by authors such as Humberto Maturana, Francisco Varela and Edgar Morin, I propose some reflections from an activity with narratives for the recovery of the author subject. The intention was to disturb young people through the use of blogs, involving self-experience and autonomy, so that they build knowledge/subjectivity in an inseparable way, considering the human/machine coupling. The narratives show the process of self-constitution and cognition emerging together, through the production of meanings for living, reconfiguring their life history and raising their level of complexity. As I get involved in the process, I start thinking about everyone involved, the emotion comes in, and then I start learning. The narratives allow us to make a reading of emotions, enchantment, learning and understanding. It is an awareness of oneself, of the process of living, of social interactions. It is a construction that takes place in a process of reflection, because educating is the process of living with the other and transforming oneself in a reciprocal way. We are educated in educating.

The study of human anatomy is a relevant part of the curriculum of health course graduation students. Given the constant reduction of hours destinated to the study of Anatomy and the debates regarding new teaching methods, the use of the Quick Response Code (QR code) has shown to be promising. Therefore, the Anatomy Department at the State University of Londrina (UEL) has developed a cataloging process concerning anatomical structures with the application of QR code, and this paper has the purpose of reporting on such experience. In the process, the structures dissected in UEL’s Anatomy Laboratory were cataloged based on a spreadsheet which contained the correlation between these structures and numbers; the information regarding each structure was then transcribed into a QR code using a digital generator, with posterior printing, lamination and attachment to the body part. The labels were made by sewing the numbered tags onto the structures. Within the discussion regarding alternative teaching methods, examples can be given regarding lamination, three- dimension projection and prospection. The use of the QR code has proven to be a valid alternative in aggregating knowledge to academic curriculum. Through the activities performed in the process of cataloging, it was possible not only to dedicate more time to the theorical and practical learning of human anatomy, but also to increase the independence in studying and developing research. Furthermore, there is an opportunity to expand the analysis directed toward human anatomy teaching and toward new learning methods.

Introduction: Bariatric, restrictive and mixed (predominantly restrictive or malabsorptive) surgery is a therapy to reduce weight and control associated diseases. This literature review discusses the relevance of procedures approved by the Federal Council of Medicine (CFM) according to bibliographic references of significant scientific evidence. Objectives: To review the techniques currently used in bariatric surgery, advantages and disadvantages. Methods: Literature review of the techniques employed in bariatric surgery, by descriptors in Portuguese (techniques in bariatric surgery, gastric banding, vertical gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypasses and biliopancreatic bypass). Results: Gastric banding is a silicone prosthesis wrapped around the stomach, which generates weight regain. Vertical gastroplasty reduces the stomach by a ring-mediated suture with good results but high recurrence. The intragastric balloon is the introduction of a silicone prosthesis with methylene blue, which must be removed after 6 months. Gastric bypass has low mortality and high efficacy, being the most used in Brazil. Vertical gastrectomy preserves the small intestine and partially the stomach, and its low postoperative mortality determines its frequent indication. The Scopinaro technique is 5% of the procedures performed in Brazil, the duodenal switch or vertical gastrectomy with intestinal detour generates nutritional deficiency. Conclusion: Comparing the surgical methods, it is up to the surgeon and the team, the particular analysis to decide which fits best for the patient. However, regardless of the technique used, scientifically it is the conduct with more positive results in the long term, compared to clinical approaches.

Neonatal Lupus Erythematosus (ENL) is a rare autoimmune disease in which immunoglobulin G is transported across the placenta into the fetal circulation. It affects both males and females. The most common clinical manifestations have been found to be skin changes, hematologic changes, hepatobiliary changes and cardiac involvement such as atrioventricular block. However, some of these symptoms tend to disappear naturally after a few months. The diagnosis can be made by biopsy, which will show histopathological mechanisms similar to those of discoid lupus and direct immunofluorescence will show the presence of IgG at the dermal-epidermal junction. The aim of this article was to improve knowledge through an integrative literature review, which used a synthesis of results obtained through research already published in order to make argumentation of the results found. It was found that the use of sunscreen, healthy habits and lifestyle and palliative treatment when applied properly, can control and even make the symptoms of this disease disappear.

Introduction: The inadequate use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), as well as the absence of work accident prevention habits by waste collection agents, cleaning and conservation of urban areas can directly impact the health and safety indexes of workers. Objective: The present work aimed to investigate how the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and the habits of prevention of accidents at work adopted by agents of waste collection and cleaning and conservation of urban areas. Methodology: Quantitative, exploratory and descriptive research was carried out with a sample of 10 workers (8 direct collectors and 2 drivers) from the municipality of Nanuque-MG, the research sought to identify which PPE are provided to these professionals and the reasons why they possibly do not use them properly. Through literature review and application of questionnaires, it was possible to obtain information on the safety practices adopted and identify the role that employers should play for the safety of workers. Results: It was observed that 20% of workers claim to have already suffered an accident at work, of these 90% say that the employer distributed PPE. Of those interviewed, 10% say they have already suffered an accident with removal from the current job, the same percentage that confirms having already suffered a mild intercurrence and did not communicate to the employer. When asked if the company offered some kind of training, 50% say yes, 50% say no. Conclusion: The results revealed that the inadequate use of PPE is influenced by several factors, such as discomfort and lack of training.

Hashimoto's thyroiditis, or chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis, is an autoimmune disease, whose main feature is inflammation of the thyroid gland, resulting from an error in the immune system. In this disease, the body produces antibodies against thyroid cells that cause the destruction or loss of function of the gland. This study aims to conduct an integrative review to describe the current state of knowledge about the immunopathological process involved in Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT), so that the research focused on understanding the immune response triggered in HT. It also aims to clarify its pathophysiology and its importance in understanding the exacerbated response of the body to this autoimmune disease. This is a bibliographic review using indexed articles available in full for free, published between 2019 and 2023, in the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM), Google Scholar and Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO).
