Teaching EFL/ESL in the Digital Age: Education Post COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Sherif Nada Mohsen
Published: September 2023

The education industry is one of the sectors heavily affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Thanks to the advancement of educational technologies and global collaborations, teachers managed to shift to distance teaching to mitigate the effect of the worldwide school closures. This sudden shift revealed the glory of the Digital Age and the need to upskill teachers and learners to compete in the future job market. This paper discusses the emerging skills needed for the future and investigates the perceptions of EFL/ESL teachers about their current education environment status post-COVID-19 pandemic along with their student’s digital skills. This study adopts a descriptive quantitative approach. The research instrument used is a survey to collect the perspectives of non-native EFL/ESL teachers and instructors working in developing countries about their current education environment post-COVID-19 pandemic. The survey was in the form of a close-ended descriptive questionnaire including four sections. The findings reveal that future jobs are based on high cognitive skills that need to be implemented in today’s learners. High awareness of the importance of continuous professional development and the need for further digital up skilling of learners, practitioners, and workspaces were also reported. Further studies with broader samples of EFL/ESL teachers are recommended.
Symmetries and topological operators, on average
Authors: Antinucci Andrea , Galati Giovanni , Rizi Giovanni , Serone Marco
Published: September 2023

We study Ward identities and selection rules for local correlators in disordered theories where a 0-form global symmetry of a QFT is explicitly broken by a random coupling hh but it re-emerges after quenched average. We consider hh space-dependent or constant. In both cases we construct the symmetry operator implementing the group action, topological after average. In the first case, relevant in statistical systems with random impurities, such symmetries can be coupled to external backgrounds and can be gauged, like ordinary symmetries in QFTs. We also determine exotic selection rules arising when symmetries emerge after average in the IR, explaining the origin of LogCFTs from symmetry considerations. In the second case, relevant in AdS/CFT to describe the dual boundary theory of certain bulk gravitational theories, the charge operator is not purely codimension-1, it can be defined only on homologically trivial cycles and on connected spaces. Selection rules for average correlators exist, yet such symmetries cannot be coupled to background gauge fields in ordinary ways and cannot be gauged. When the space is disconnected, in each connected component charge violation occurs, as expected from Euclidean wormholes in the bulk theory. Our findings show the obstruction to interpret symmetries emergent after average as gauged in the bulk.
ALICE at the LHC and astrophysics: From providing input for the search for antinuclei in space to constraining the equation of state of neutron stars
Authors: Kalweit Alexander
Published: September 2023

The ALICE experiment at the LHC was originally designed to study the creation of the quark-gluon-plasma in heavy-ion collisions, a new state of matter in which quarks and gluons are not confined into hadrons. More recently, the versatility of both the Large Hadron Collider and the ALICE apparatus have given additionally access to a unique set of nuclear and hadronic physics measurements. The main results from this new and dynamic research area will be presented. The application of these findings to astrophysical challenges, ranging from the equation of state of neutron stars to the search for dark matter in space, will be discussed.
Probing hadronic interaction models with the hybrid data of the Pierre Auger Observatory
Authors: Vícha Jakub
Published: September 2023

Presently large systematic uncertainties remain in the description of hadronic interactions at ultra-high energies and a fully consistent description of air-shower experimental data is yet to be reached. The amount of data collected by the Pierre Auger Observatory using simultaneously the fluorescence and surface detectors in the energy range 10^{18.5}18.5 -10^{19.0}19.0 eV has provided opportunity to perform a multi-parameter test of model predictions. We apply a global method to simultaneously fit the mass composition of cosmic rays and adjustments to the simulated depth of shower maximum, and hadronic signal at ground level. The best description of the hybrid data is obtained for a deeper scale of simulated depth of shower maximum than predicted by hadronic interaction models tuned to the LHC data. Consequently, the deficit of the simulated hadronic signal at ground level, dominated by muons, is alleviated with respect to the unmodified hadronic interaction models. Because of the size of the adjustments to simulated depth of shower maximum and hadronic signal and the large number of events in the sample, the statistical significance of these assumed adjustments is large, greater than 5\sigma_{stat}σstat, even for the combination of the systematic experimental shifts within 1\sigma_{sys}σsys that are the most favorable for the models.

Authors: Margiotta Annarita
Published: September 2023

KM3NeT is a research infrastructure in construction under the Mediterranean Sea. It hosts two large volume neutrino Cherenkov telescopes: ARCA at a depth of 3500 m, located offshore Sicily, and ORCA, 2500 m under the sea level, offshore the southern French coast. The two detectors share the same detection principle and technology and the same data acquisition design, the only difference being the geometrical arrangement of the optical sensors. This allows to span a wide range of neutrino energy and cover a large scientific program: The study of neutrino properties, first of all neutrino mass ordering, the identification and study of high energy neutrino astrophysical sources, indirect dark matter searches and core collapse supernovae detection.
Muons in showers with energy $\boldsymbol{E_{0} \geq}$ 5 EeV and QGSjetII-04 and EPOS LHC models of hadronic interactions. Is there a muon deficit in the models?
Authors: Knurenko Stanislav P. , Petrov Igor S.
Published: September 2023

The paper presents data on the muon component with a threshold\varepsilon_{thr} \geqεthr≥ 1 GeV. Air showers were registered at the Yakutsk array during almost 50 years of continuous air shower observations. The characteristics of muons are compared with calculations of QGSjetII-04 and EPOS LHC models for a proton and an iron nucleus. There is a muon deficit in the models, at energies greater than 5 EeV. To make an agreement between experimental data and simulations on muons, further tuning of the models is required.

KASCADE and its extension array of KASCADE-Grande were devoted to measure individual air showers of cosmic rays in the primary energy range of 100 TeV to 1 EeV. The experiment has substantially contributed to investigate the energy spectrum and mass composition of cosmic rays in the transition region from galactic to extragalactic origin of cosmic rays as well as to quantify the characteristics of hadronic interaction models in the air shower development through validity tests using the multi-detector information from KASCADE-Grande. Although the data accumulation was completed in 2013, data analysis is still continuing. Recently, we investigated the reliability of the new hadronic interactions models of the SIBYLL version 2.3d only with the energy spectra from the KASCADE-Grande data. The evolution of the muon content of high energy air showers in the atmosphere is studied as well, using EPOS-LHC, SIBYLL 2.3, QGSJET-II-04 and SIBYLL 2.3c. In this talk, recent results from KASCADE-Grande and the update of the KASCADE Cosmic Ray Data Centre (KCDC) will be discussed.
The role of alarmins in the pathogenesis of psoriasis
Authors: Mezentsev A. V. , Denisova E. V. , Sobolev V. V. , Korsunskaya I. M.
Published: September 2023

Alarmins are a group of immune activating proteins/peptides that initiate an inflammatory process by interacting with immune cells. The alarmins are biosynthesized as a result of cell injury, often due to proteolysis of native proteins. Most often, the alarmins are released into the extracellular matrix as a result of infection, burn or trauma. Several studies have been conducted recently to determine the role of alarmins in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. This work was aimed to assess the clinical potential of alarmins and characterize their role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. The proposed review analysed 6 groups of alarmins with increased expression in the skin of patients with psoriasis: defensins, CAMP/LL-37, amphoterin/HMGB1, interleukin-1 (IL-1)-like cytokine family members (IL1 and -33) with alarmin properties, heat shock proteins, and proteins of the S100 family. The presented work also discusses the therapeutic potential of alarmins: the possibility to use them as the drug therapy target, as well as to establish diagnosis and monitor the progress of psoriasis. The further experimental studies are supposed to pay considerable attention to alarmin receptors, as well as members involved in the signalling pathways they initiated. These work findings help to obtain biologically active compounds that will be able to specifically and effectively inhibit the physiological effects of alarmins, as well as control the inflammatory process they induced. It seems certain that the use of alarmin antagonists in clinical practice will prove useful in the treatment of both psoriasis and other chronic autoimmune diseases, especially in cases where the most commonly used therapies are not effective enough.

TIME CALCULATION METHODS OF THE BUGIS MAKASSAR TRIBE BASED ON THE KU TIKA BOOK
Authors: Sartika Sartika
Published: September 2023

The Bugis Makassar Tribe Society is one of the tribes in Indonesia that has historical traces in the calendar system. The method of calculating people's time in ancient times was contained in the Ku Tika manuscript of the Bone Tribe which until now is no longer used and is only used as a historical source. Many of today's generations do not know and are no longer able to be read by various backgrounds in society in general. This is because the language used in the text is not the same as today's language, such as the Lontara Bugis language. Therefore, a study is needed regarding the contents of the manuscript so that it can be known by all audiences. This research is included in library research, namely research by collecting data and information from books, journals, and other document records. Based on the results of the research, it can be seen that the Ku Tika manuscript of the Bone tribe explains the meaning of hours, days and months. The time calculation method used is called Pakkita Esso which means the system of five times in one day.

Effect of Ultrasonic Exposure on the Efficiency of De-Oiling Fluid Lecithins
Authors: Lisovaya Ekaterina , Viktorova Elena , Sverdlichenko Anastasia , Zhane Mariet
Published: September 2023

De-oiling fluid lecithin is a resource- and energy-intensive process that provides a phospholipid isolate with a high content of phospholipids. Ultrasonic exposure is one of the most effective and easy-to-implement physical methods that intensify this chemical-technological procedure. This article describes the effect of ultrasonic exposure on the efficiency of de-oiling fluid lecithins.

The research featured soy lecithin (fluid, partially de-oiled, phospholipid isolate). The de-oiling process involved acetone as a solvent and included three 10-min stages at a temperature of 40°C. The ratio of lecithin:acetone (by weight) was as follows: stage I – 1:7, stage II – 1:6, stage III – 1:5. The systems of fluid lecithin – acetone and partially de-oiled lecithin – acetone underwent ultrasonic treatment during the de-oiling process at different specific power and exposure time. As a result of filtration, phases separated into an acetone solution of neutral lipids and phospholipids. The phospholipid isolate was dried in a vacuum oven at 5 kPa and 40°C. Each stage ended with the following measurements: the content of phospholipids in partially de-oiled lecithins, the content of phospholipids in the phospholipid isolate, and the extraction degree of neutral lipids after distilling the solvent from the acetone miscella.

The specific power in the lecithin – acetone system was 0.28 W/cm3 at de-oiling stage I and 0.36 W/cm3 at stages II and III. Three minutes of ultrasonic exposure at stages I and II and two minutes at stage III reduced the acetone consumption by 1.2 times. The resulting phospholipid isolate yielded by 3.3% more phospholipids than the control sample, which presupposed no ultrasonic treatment.

Ultrasonic exposure proved to be an effective and solvent-saving three-stage method that intensified the process of de-oiling fluid soy lecithin. The study specified the optimal technological modes for obtaining a phospholipid isolate with a high content of phospholipids (98.6%), which can be recommended as a food additive.

Published: September 2023

Pempek is an authentic traditional dish of Indonesian cuisine. As a popular food, it needs to be both tasty and nutritious. Mashed pumpkin can add some health-beneficial properties to the traditional pempek and reduce its carbohydrate content. This research featured pempek made of farmed toman fish (Channa micropeltes), which is an affordable raw material. The research objective was to evaluate the consumer acceptance of the experimental pempek based on its sensory assessment and a folding test. This research also revealed the proximate composition, β-carotene, and amino acids in the pempek samples.

The research procedure included the following stages: making pumpkin puree; making pempek by substituting tapioca flour with pumpkin puree (control: 0%, Formulation 1: 10%, Formulation 2: 20%); sensory assessment and folding test; proximate analysis; β-carotene analysis; and amino acid analysis.

A greater proportion of pumpkin puree improved the appearance, color, aroma, flavor, and texture values of the experimental sample. Based on the folding test, the elasticity of pempek decreased as the pumpkin share increased. Pumpkin puree improved the quality of pempek in terms of its protein, moisture, ash, carbohydrate, β-carotene, and amino acid composition. Formulation 2 with 20% of tapioca flour substituted with pumpkin puree showed the best results for protein (7.91%) and amino acids (10.27%), as well as the lowest carbohydrate content (26.76%).

Mashed pumpkin proved to be an excellent substitute of tapioca flour in the traditional Indonesian pempek fishcake as it improved both its sensory profile and nutritional value.

Published: September 2023

Sourdough bakery products have a wide range of tastes and aromas, an extended shelf-life, and other benefits that are important for food producers and consumers. Recent years have seen a growing research interest in the microbiome of bakery sourdoughs. The research objective was to generalize, systematize, and analyze modern data on spontaneous fermentation starters, their production methods, and their role in the technological process at modern bakeries.

The study featured domestic and foreign monographs, research articles, and patents related to various aspects of the production and commercial use of spontaneously fermented baking starters. The search covered publications indexed in PubMed and eLIBRARY.RU in 2000–2022. The sources were selected based on such indicators as completeness, consistency, reliability, and relevance. The obtained data were analyzed and systematized in line with the method of apperception and holography.

The analysis focused on the factors that affect the microbiome of baking starter cultures, in particular, spontaneous fermentation. Another aspect included the effect of the raw materials used at the stage of breeding spontaneous fermentation starter cultures on their quality indicators. The transformation of bioactive compounds in the process of sourdough fermentation proved to be an increasingly relevant research matter. Food producers are looking for more effective tools to develop bakery products with specific nutritional properties, e.g., lower glycemic index, increased content of bioactive nutrients, reduced acrylamide content, low gliadin allergenicity, etc.

The isolation and profiling of microorganisms included in the microbiome of spontaneous fermentation sourdough cultures is of practical interest because new strains might produce starter cultures intended for various target audiences.
New Technology of Functional Bakery Products
Authors: Ladnova Olga , Koryachkina Svetlana , Koryachkin Vladimir , Bolshakova Larisa
Published: September 2023

Peas (Pisum sativum L.) are rich in protein, B vitamins, and dietary fiber, represented by hemicellulose and pectins. In terms of amino acids, pea proteins are as close to the reference protein as possible. The limiting amino acids of pea protein are sulfur-containing, i.e., methionine and cysteine. Peas are also rich in lysine, which is the limiting amino acid for wheat flour. Therefore, products of pea processing can expand the range of commercial high-protein foods, including functional bakery products. The research objective was to develop a technology for functional bread from a mix of wholemeal pea flour and wheat gluten.

The study featured baking wheat flour, wheat gluten, wholemeal pea flour of San Cipriano and Vega varieties, dough samples, and ready-made bread. The carbohydrate-amylase complex of flour was studied using an Amilotest AT-97 device. The starch content was determined by the polarimetric method. The spectrophotometric method served to test the flower samples for protein while the Kjeldahl method was applied to the bread samples. The rheological properties of the dough were studied on a Reotest 2 viscometer. The sensory evaluation relied on a panel of experts, and the chemical composition was revealed by calculation and analytically.

The wholemeal pea flour had a lower starch gel viscosity compared to the wheat flour sample. A greater amount of flour added during kneading increased the viscosity of the resulting dough. The acidity was rather high: 7.2 and 9.4 degrees for San Cipriano and Vega samples, respectively, and so was the autolytic activity (≤ 80 s). These useful qualities made it possible to reduce the technological process by 115 and 145 min. The resulting bread demonstrated good physical, chemical, and sensory indicators. The high-protein raw materials increased the protein content in bread by 41.9–46.4%, compared to the control sample, which equaled 33.1–34.2% of the recommended daily intake per 100 g of bread.

The optimal ratio of wholemeal high-protein pea flour and wheat gluten was 20/80 for the San Cipriano samples and 30/70 for the Vega variety.
Seasonal Variations in the Biological Value of Kyrgyz Donkey’s Milk Proteins

Published: September 2023

Due to its protein component, donkey’s milk is a multifunctional product with a wide range of beneficial physiological properties. It is known for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, rejuvenating, antimicrobial, and antitumor effects. However, the milk of Kyrgyz donkeys has not received proper scientific attention in this respect. This study analyzed the seasonal amino acid profile and biological value of milk obtained from Kyrgyz donkeys.

The donkeys belonged to the Kyrgyz breed and inhabited the highlands of the Chui Region, Republic of Kyrgyzstan. The sampling took place in April, July, and September. The amino acid composition of milk proteins was determined by capillary electrophoresis. The biological value of proteins was assessed by amino acid score, index of essential amino acids (Auxerre index), utility ratio of essential amino acids, and utility ratio of amino acid composition.

The analysis revealed 18 amino acids, including eight essential ones. The total content of amino acids in the spring samples was 1840.07 mg/100 g. In the summer samples, this value peaked at 2037 mg/100 g; in autumn, it dropped to 1264.35 mg/100 g. The changes could be explained by the seasonal differences in the diet. The ratio of essential to non-essential amino acids approached 1:1. The milk also proved to contain arginine, which is an essential amino acid for a juvenile organism. In the spring samples, its content was 2.5 times as big as in the autumn ones. Leucine and isoleucine were responsible for 1/3 of the essential amino acids (322.60 ± 19.35 mg/100 g). The summer samples demonstrated the maximal content of some other essential amino acids, except for valine and tryptophan, which appeared to be the limiting essential amino acids for donkey’s milk in the autumn period. Total essential amino acids in the spring, summer, and autumn samples amounted to 54.24, 59.26, and 34.77 g/100 g, respectively, which exceeded the value for the reference protein (27.46 g/100 g).

Kyrgyz donkey’s milk proteins were of high biological value, regardless of the season, which means that donkey’s milk can become part of new functional products.
Love as a key theological principle of following Christ in the 21st chapter of the Gospel of John
Authors:   Ryazan Theological Seminary, Vikulov Deacon Andrey ,   Moscow Theological Academy
Published: September 2023

The article is devoted to the disclosure of the teaching of the Apostle John the Theologian about following Christ on the basis of the final chapter of the Gospel of John. The author comes to the conclusion that love is the main theme of the 21st chapter of the Gospel. The Savior’s love for the disciples is the main motive of the evangelist John’s story about the Lord’s meal with the disciples after a wonderful fishing trip. The central theme of the conversation between the Apostle Peter and the Lord Jesus Christ is also love. It is also a necessary basis for further relations between them, as well as all followers of the Savior. The article reveals the issue of the necessity of suffering and death for the disciple of Christ, the correlation of love and sorrows, the meaning of suffering. On the basis of patristic theology, conclusions are drawn that love for Christ makes it possible to overcome the natural fear of death and all the sorrows on the path of life. Suffering and death for their Teacher and Lord become His honor, glory and desired reward for the disciple. Martyrdom is not a prerequisite for the life of a follower of Christ, but those who fight for the truth to death follow Him more.
via trágica do pensamento de Martin Heidegger
Authors: Coelho Santos Marina
Published: September 2023

A questão do trágico é um importante eixo teórico da filosofia alemã pautado não somente na filosofia da arte, mas também no desenvolvimento de teses ontológicas que constituem a chamada filosofia do trágico. Heidegger, como herdeiro da tradição alemã, se debruçou sobre essa questão - principalmente em sua interpretação do primeiro estásimo da Antígona de Sófocles - que pode ser encontrada em diversos pontos de sua filosofia no período de 1935-1946. Inserindo-nos no debate da filosofia do trágico, nosso objetivo é investigar: 1) de que modo a questão do trágico se manifesta em Heidegger; 2) em que medida Heidegger se diferencia ou se aproxima da filosofia do trágico e de autores que refletiram sobre essa questão, especificamente Hegel e Hölderlin. Nossa hipótese é que há uma via trágica original no pensamento heideggeriano, sustentada por sua noção conflitual de verdade, que é uma chave de leitura da história do ser, passível de ser construída em embate com Hegel e Hölderlin.

Ao partir de correntes filosóficas da fenomenologia, observam-se apropriações em que o arquiteto pode aproximar-se desse conhecimento relacionando aspectos da experiência humana na definição do projeto arquitetônico. Nesse cenário, destaca-se o objetivo de interpretar o trabalho de Steven Holl, considerando relações entre fenomenologia e arquitetura. O estudo parte da fundamentação teórica, ao apresentar uma contextualização sobre princípios que conduzem a abordagem fenomenológica e arquitetônica. Trata-se de uma pesquisa que envolve o suporte de registro bibliográfico, com abrangência exploratória caracterizada por uma aproximação qualitativa presente em publicações sobre o tema. Isso permitiu observar a estruturação de uma estratégia de projeto desdobrada em três eixos interpretativos: identificação do lugar, conceito e forma, e espaço arquitetônico. Para representar, descreveu-se obras de arquitetura, visando demonstrar como essas relações são apropriadas arquitetonicamente. Nesse âmbito, entende-se uma apropriação que acontece em escalas, em que existe uma interpretação de fatores da atmosfera que identifica a arquitetura a partir do lugar, articulando o conceito que define o emprego da forma em uma disposição ordenada entre partes e o todo arquitetônico, bem como relações humanas no espaço arquitetônico, configurando atributos que envolvem a experiência em determinado ambiente. Assim, encontra-se uma referência para pesquisadores, profissionais e estudantes na elaboração de propostas de projeto em arquitetura.

Published: September 2023

The case of personal data leakage that occurred in mid-2022 by hackers is a phenomenon that threatens Indonesian personal data security that needs a framework in the form of regulation. This research analyzes the phenomenon of the passing of the personal data protection bill that Indonesia lacks. The Narrative Policy Framework (NPF) theory is used to see the dynamics of policy formulation through the perspective of a narrative story related to the importance of personal data protection. The results showed that personal data breaches conducted by hackers and other data safety issues bring forth narrative perception of government abilities to sort the problem and therefore affecting the acceleration process of personal data protection bill as the solution. This research can be developed by using in-depth observations to each stakeholders to be able to explore the narratives built to accelerate the ratification of the bill. This research shows that every policy made by the government goes through dynamics of society, namely the process of disseminating information to the public as a step to obtain public justification that the policy can be turn into a formal legal product.

Analytical Solution for the Two-Layered Composite Beam-Column with Interlayer Slip and Constant Axial Load
Authors: Ecsedi István , Baksa Attila , Lengyel Ákos József , Gönczi Dávid
Published: September 2023

The authors present an analytical solution for the two-layered composite beams with imperfect shear connections. The considered beam is simply supported at both ends. The beam is subjected to transverse and axial loads. The kinematic assumptions of the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory are used. The connection of the beam components is perfect in normal direction, but the axial displacement field may have jump. The shear axial force derived from the imperfect connection is proportional to the relative slip occurring between the layers. The determination of the analytical solution is based on the Fourier method. Two examples illustrate the application of the presented analytical method.

Local authorities (LA) have been serving as leaders in their communities to implement the Low Carbon Cities Framework (LCCF). LCCFC, although carefully developed, has not been effectively utilised. This paper aimed to study the effect of LCCFC implementation on community satisfaction levels. The objectives of this paper were: (i) to determine the implementation of LCCFC in relation to community satisfaction, (ii) to analyse the levels of community satisfaction across economic, social, and environmental aspects, and (iii) to suggest strategies and frameworks for enhancing community satisfaction. A mixed method approach was employed, which encompassed both an interview and a questionnaire survey. The questionnaire survey reached a sample size of 400 participants, drawn from six distinct neighbourhood areas within the jurisdiction of the Subang Jaya Municipal Council. Meanwhile, the interview was conducted with town planners within a Local Authority (LA) as key stakeholders, alongside the community. The qualitative data was analysed using Atlas Ti, while the quantitative data was via SPSS. The findings of the present study reveal that the utilisation of the LCCF checklist by the local authority concerned is currently inadequate, thereby necessitating the identification of strategies for improvement and the formulation of action plans to enhance community contentment. It is recommended that the findings of the current study be utilised as a point of reference by other local authorities, thereby constituting a significant advancement in the pursuit of accelerating sustainable development.

This research paper examines the state of community awareness and participation in the Low Carbon City (LCC) initiative by the Majlis Bandaraya Shah Alam (MBSA). The study aimed to explore the level of understanding, awareness, and involvement of the community in the low carbon city initiative, and to identify the factors that influence community participation. The study employed a qualitative approach where focus group discussions involving key stakeholders were conducted, and subsequently, thematically analysed. The findings suggest that the level of community awareness and participation in the low carbon city initiatives in Shah Alam is relatively low. Factors such as participation and information-sharing methods, and a lack of collaboration between stakeholders were identified as barriers to community participation. The study recommends that MBSA prioritises community engagement and education, including best practices, to increase community awareness and participation. In addition, the methods for participation and information sharing should be tailored to the target group. The findings also suggested continuous discussion and engagement among the stakeholders, especially between the communities and the local authority, can promote active participation in the LCC initiatives among the communities in Shah Alam.

The ankle-brachial index (ABI) is a diagnostic tool to know the status of a patient in terms of peripheral vascular health. The body mass index (BMI) is another tool that helps health personnel know the patient's body composition. The data that have been considered are from 151 adult patients hospitalized in the internal medicine service of the University School Hospital. They found that the relationship between these two variables is weak; this is known through statistical techniques of probability study and correlation using the methods of Spearman and Pearson. It is concluded that ABI and BMI have a weak negative correlation. Additionally, age is not a factor that affects the ABI value since it can be affected by variables and conditions not considered in this study.

Voces inauditas: acercamiento a la poesía contemporánea escrita en francés por autoras innúes
Authors: Silva Haydée
Published: September 2023

El canon etnocéntrico de la literatura en francés se ha ido resquebrajando paulatinamente, para dar cabida a nuevas expresiones literarias. Tal es el caso de la literatura en francés de las Prime-ras Naciones canadienses que, si bien ha ido ganando visibilidad, sigue siendo relativamente poco conocida fuera e incluso dentro de Quebec. Con el fin de permitir al público hispanohablante conocer, disfrutar y valorar la poesía contemporánea escrita en francés por autoras innúes, se esboza aquí un panorama de la situación actual de la producción literaria de las Primeras Naciones en Canadá, para enfocarse después en aquello que caracteriza las voces poéticas innúes: voces inauditas, voces milenarias, voces insurrectas y voces espejo. Lo anterior se ilustra de manera concreta mediante un acercamiento a la poesía de seis autoras innúes de diferentes generaciones: Joséphine Bacon, Shan Dak, Rita Mestokosho, Maya Cousineau Mollen, Marie-Andrée Gill y Natasha Kanapé Fontaine, que han alcanzado amplio reconocimiento, analizando brevemente algunas de sus obras desde cuatro núcleos temáticos ligados entre sí: los vínculos entre territorio, naturaleza y lengua; la identi-dad; el binomio silencio/palabra en su relación con los sueños y, finalmente, los nexos entre transmisión y violencia que derivan en una postura de resistencia poética e incluso política.

Fuzzy TOPSIS for Post-Harvest Losses Drivers Evaluation in Fish Supply Chain: A Case Study
Authors: Ibrahim Muhammad Faisal , Kurrahman Taufik , Meilanitasari Prita
Published: September 2023

Being highly susceptible to damage, fish result in significant post-harvest fish losses (PHFL) due to quality deterioration from inefficient harvesting and market dynamics. This study aims to identify the leading factors driving PHFL and construct a practical decision-making framework for the fisheries industry's development. Employing the fuzzy TOPSIS method, we scrutinized the critical causes of PHFL. Our literature review revealed four aspects and 13 operational processes contributing to PHFL across the supply chain. Among these processes, four drivers were the primary culprits: excessive fish capacity in shipping baskets, inadequate ice cooling during transportation to suppliers, insufficient ice cooling during supplier sorting, and the absence of appropriate tools for small retailers. To alleviate PHFL and enhance the fishery industry, priority should be given to addressing excessive fish capacity in shipping baskets, which poses a risk of physical damage during transit. Moreover, inadequate ice-cooling techniques, particularly in transportation and supplier sorting stages, raise public health and food safety concerns. Stakeholders must prioritize these critical factors for PHFL reduction.
