Published: December 2024

Public service refers to the provision of goods, services, and support by the government to meet the community's desires and needs. In order to assess the efficacy of this service, a metric for gauging service quality, referred to as the Community Satisfaction Index, has been devised. This data offers insights into the level of satisfaction within the community regarding a particular service. This study utilizes the K-Means Cluster algorithm, a form of unsupervised machine learning, to categorize data based on similarities and dissimilarities into distinct clusters.
The objective of this study is to gain insight and conduct an analysis of the level of satisfaction within the community regarding the information services offered by the Communication and Information Department of West Java Province. Furthermore, the objective of this study is to ascertain the categorization of the public satisfaction index by using the K-Means Cluster technique, employing an artificial intelligence methodology. This approach will enable the identification of the public satisfaction index as well as the identification of specific indicators that necessitate enhancement.
The initial step in examining the public satisfaction index through the utilization of Artificial Intelligence involves the application of the K-Means Cluster algorithm, which will generate multiple clusters based on their shared characteristics. The values utilized by each group consist of the integers 1, 2, 3, and 4. Subsequently, an assessment is conducted on each formed group in order to ascertain the most favorable outcomes. The study yielded clusters that were deemed optimal, with smaller values indicating areas in which the services could be enhanced.
The present study aims to investigate the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on public service quality, as measured by the Community Satisfaction Index (CSI). Specifically, we employ the K-Means clustering algorithm to analyze the data collected from a representative sample of community members. By utilizing AI techniques, we seek to gain insights into.

The romance of folkloric circulation Inima mi-e plină (my heart is full): interpretative peculiarities
Authors: Valuta-Cioinac Diana
Published: December 2024

The Romanian urban romance has a history of about two centuries. Even if it is a relatively modest period of time, compared to other productions from the intangible cultural heritage, however it still managed to impose itself through its musical-poetic specificity. At the same time, the interpretative aspect raises certain requirements for the singer from the point of view of vocality, artistic expressiveness, collaboration with the instrumental support, etc. In this article, we will refer to the romance „My Heart is Full” from Anton Pann's collection World Songs, proposing an interpretive version, which would preserve the authenticity of the work, the musical-poetic content and the atmosphere of the time when it was created.
Ancient Chinese philosophy and the categories of Asiatic theatre in Bertolt Brecht’s dramaturgical dimension
Authors: Ermicioi Nina , Tirtau Svetlana
Published: December 2024

There is an opinion that the way Bertolt Brecht created his theatre is comparable to the construction of the Great Wall of China. This article interprets the nature of this analogy in a special way. In fact, Brecht's dramaturgical dimension is inconceivable without an Eastern component. Cases of quoting ancient Chinese thought are found in the work «The Good Person of Szechwan». At the same time, the aesthetics, stylistic uniqueness and methods of stage expression inherent in the play of Chinese artists are partly reflected in the dramaturgical material.

Authors: Paixão Sanna Verena Moreira , Silva Carlos Danilo Cardoso Matos
Published: December 2024

Introduction: Cancer is one of the leading causes of death globally, with the majority of cases occurring in low-income countries. There are more than a hundred types, divided into sarcomas and carcinomas. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men and is usually asymptomatic. Treatment depends on the stage of the disease and may include surgery, hormone therapy, and radiation therapy. In advanced stages, new treatments such as the radiopharmaceutical LuPSMA are investigated to improve patients' quality of life.
Material and Methods: An exploratory-descriptive literature review was conducted using qualitative methods. Data collection spanned 2019–2024, sourcing relevant studies from LILACS, SciELO, and PubMed. Search terms included "Prostate Neoplasms," "Lutetium," and "Positron Emission Tomography combined with Computed Tomography," using both Portuguese and English with the boolean operator "AND." After screening 189 articles for relevance, 30 met the inclusion criteria.
Results: Theranostic treatment with LuPSMA demonstrated significant improvements in overall survival and progression-free survival in mCRPC patients. The therapy was well-tolerated, with manageable adverse effects. However, challenges remain in predicting outcomes for patients with low PSMA expression.
Conclusion: LuPSMA therapy has shown promise in enhancing survival rates and quality of life for mCRPC patients, offering a well-tolerated alternative to conventional treatments. However, there are uncertainties about the therapeutic response and prognosis in patients with low PSMA expression, indicating the need for further research. The study has contributed to imaging and oncology, offering new perspectives on alternative therapies for metastatic cancer and serving as a basis for future investigations into imaging-guided radionuclide therapies.
Mathematical modeling of hepatocellular carcinoma incorporating immunotherapy
Authors: Manda Edna Chilenje , Chirove Faraimunashe
Published: December 2024

We develop a within-host mathematical model for hepatitis B virus infection that leads to hepatocellular carcinoma incorporating immunotherapy as an intervention strategy and also demonstrating drug effects in the sub-therapeutic, therapeutic and toxicity regions of concentration. The model includes the dynamics of hepatocytes, immune cells, cytokines and hepatitis B virus dynamics using a system of ordinary differential equations. Model parameters were estimated using the flexible modeling environment algorithm. Treatment was presented replicating realistic pharmacokinetics of a drug called Nivolumab as a monoclonal antibody type of immunotherapy. Results suggests that immunotherapy reduces the growth of cancer cells when the drug concentration is in a therapeutic region but complete eradication is not possible. Drug concentration above the therapeutic region reduced the cancer cells to better levels but this benefit is associated with toxicity of the drug. Drug concentration below the therapeutic region is associated with little reduction in cancer cells.

Revisiting the Classical McKay Correspondence, Derived Equivalences and the Spectrum of Kleinian Surface Singularities: A Look Through the Mirror
Authors: Becerra Enrique , Katzarkov Ludmil , Lupercio Ernesto
Published: December 2024

In this article, we revisit the classical McKay correspondence via homological mirror symmetry. Specifically, we demonstrate how this correspondence can be articulated as a derived equivalence between the category of vanishing cycles associated with a Kleinian surface singularity and the category of perfect complexes on the corresponding quotient orbifold. We further illustrate how this equivalence allows for the interpretation of the spectrum of a Kleinian surface singularity solely in terms of the representation-theoretic data of the associated binary polyhedral group.
The effects of different color lights on the growth, glandular trichome development and essential oil content of Mentha arvensis L
Authors: Huang Tingting , Myanganbayar Ariuntungalag , Davaasambuu Undarmaa
Published: December 2024

Mentha arvensis L. is well known for producing the monoterpenes menthol; its essential oil (EO) is widely used in pharmaceutics, cosmetics, food and other industries. The peltate glandular trichome (PGT) is the site responsible for the production and storage of EO in mint. Light is one of the most important environmental factors that contributes to plant growth and development, and secondary metabolism. In this report, we have investigated the influence of additional red light (White + Red, W+R) and blue light (White + Blue, W+B) on the parameters of growth, EO, and PGT in M. arvensis. Interestingly, the plant growth parameters, such as the number of branches, plant height, fresh weight, leaf area and number of leaves were significantly greater both under W+R and W+B treatments compared to the control group. Red light proved more beneficial for increasing plant height (by 15.26%) and fresh weight (by 58.42%), whereas blue light was more effective in boosting the number of branches (by 83.68%) and leaves (by 65.07%). The highest increases in essential oil (EO) content (by 36.36%), yield (by 101.72%), and peltate glandular trichome (PGT) density (by 35.64%) were observed under W+B treatment. However, both W+R and W+B had a slightly negative effect on the quality of mint EO, where menthol content decreased by 4.32 per cent and 11.88 per cent respectively. These results proved that red light is more conducive to biomass accumulation, while blue light is more conducive to EO synthesis and PGT development in M. arvensis.

Published: December 2024

Piperine is an amide alkaloid isolated from the black pepper plant. This study examined the pain‑relieving activity of piperine against paclitaxel (PTX)‑induced neuropathy. Male mice were divided into 6 groups: Sham‑operated group (remained intact), PTX group (PTX‑treated mice receiving normal saline), PTX+ piperine 10, 25, and 50 mg/kg groups (PTX‑treated mice receiving piperine) and positive control group (PTX‑treated mice receiving imipramine 10 mg/kg). Neuropathic pain was induced by PTX 2 mg/kg/day on days 1, 3, 5 and 7. On day 7, behavioral tests were conducted and serum levels of interleukin‑6 (IL‑6), tumor necrosis factor‑alpha (TNF‑α), malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase (CAT) were assayed. PTX produced significant thermal hyperalgesia compared to the sham group. Piperine at all doses alleviated neuropathic pain, and significantly decreased IL‑6, TNF‑α, and MDA, but induced CAT and SOD activities compared to the control group. Piperine could confer beneficial effects against neuropathic pain, at least partially, via reduction of inflammatory and oxidative stress markers.

Published: December 2024

Estuaries in Banten Bay support fisheries activities by serving as critical habitats for plankton communities, which form the foundation of the aquatic food web. This study aims to determine the structure of plankton communities, both phytoplankton and zooplankton, as baseline data for fisheries management in Banten Bay estuaries. Fieldwork was conducted in April and October 2021 at four estuaries in Banten Province: Karangantu, Wadas, Cengkok Estuary, and Pamong. Water samples were collected for plankton identification and analysis of physical and chemical water quality parameters in situ and laboratory. Key structural attributes, including Shannon - Wiener diversity index (H'), evenness index (E), dominance index (C), trophic status and canonical correspondence analysis (CCA), were also assessed. The highest abundance of phytoplankton was found in the Karangantu estuary, while the highest abundance of zooplankton was observed in the Pamong estuary, with overall abundance higher in April. Phytoplankton diversity was highest in Karangantu in October, whereas zooplankton diversity peaked in April. Plankton diversity indicated slight to moderate pollution levels, and trophic status analysis revealed eutrophic to hypertrophic conditions across the estuaries, suggesting high nutrient levels that support fish productivity. CCA revealed significant correlations between environmental variables and plankton composition and abundance. Mitigation strategies are recommended to monitor the growth of Chaetoceros sp. and Bacteriastrum sp., especially during the dry season. Long-term monitoring of water quality and plankton dynamics is essential in other estuaries of Banten Bay to assess nutrient loading impacts and develop strategies to mitigate harmful algal blooms. These efforts are critical to ensuring sustainable fisheries management in the region.
A Systematic Review of Research Trends in Methane Emissions from Rice Fields in Asia
Authors: I Gusti Ayu Agung Pradnya Paramitha
Published: December 2024

Global greenhouse gas levels are significantly impacted by methane emissions from rice fields, especially in Asia, where the majority of the world's rice is produced. This review analyzes research trends on methane emissions from rice fields in East, Southeast, and South Asia, focusing on factors influencing emissions and the effectiveness of mitigation strategies. We synthesized data about 169 papers published between 2000 and 2023 from Web of Science and Google Scholar were merged in Mendeley. The results were visualized using VOSviewer. It covers key aspects such as water management, soil types, farming practices, and rice varieties. Our findings suggest that water management practices, including intermittent drainage and pulse irrigation, play a critical role in reducing methane emissions. Variations in emissions levels are also influenced by soil types, farming practices, and rice varieties. The research highlights significant regional differences, with China and Indonesia being major contributors to emissions, while countries such as Japan and South Korea have implemented effective mitigation measures. Emerging research topics include the impact of organic matter inputs and innovative rice cultivars on emission levels. This review underscores the need for region-specific strategies and research in less studied, such as rainfed and peatland rice fields, to enhance global understanding and control of methane emissions from rice cultivation. The boundary of this review is this manuscript only focusing on methane emissions in artificial wetlands such as rice field area not other water bodies, therefore, further research review in other freshwater ecosystems is encouraged to be done.

Authors: VERMA A K , SAMADIA D K , RAM HANUMAN , RAM CHET , KUMAR P
Published: December 2024

Brinjal (Solanum melongena L.) is one of the most common vegetable which is generally cultivated as rainy (kharif) season crop to get the fruits during autumn-winter season. However, the summer season crop has more potential than the kharif season as the fruits harvested during summer gets premium price in the market. But, getting high quality fruit yield during summer due to high temperature stress (>45°C) is a challenge particularly in hot arid agro-climate as the day and night temperature above 35°C reduces the pollen viability, fruit set, number of fruits/plant and colour retention to a great extent. The present study was carried out during 2020 and 2021 at ICAR-Central Institute of Arid Horticulture, Bikaner, Rajasthan to develop varieties with better quality fruit yield under high temperature conditions. The experiments were conducted in split plot design (SPD) considering environments as main plots and replicates within environment as subplots with three replications. As a result, CIAH-22 has been identified and characterized as a trait specific high temperature tolerant (up to 45°C) thorny brinjal genotype suitable for hot arid region. Fruit weight at marketable stage varied from 144.56–155.84 g that indicates bigger sized fruits with thorns on calyx which are preferred most by the local growers and consumers of this region. It has the yield potential of 2.18–3.72 kg fruits/plant and 447.78–471.74 q/ha. The identified genotype CIAH-22 was able to set fruits at temperature as high as 45°C which was also evidenced by its pollen viability i.e. 83.71%. High pollen viability significantly enhanced fruit set, fruit weight and number of fruits per plant and thereby yield under high temperature stress. Thus, this identified genotype can be a potential source for brinjal improvement for high temperature tolerance and regional preference of big-sized thorny fruits with attractive colour retention.

Exploitation of the heterosis, combining ability and gene action potential in okra [Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench] serves to optimize breeding efficacy, enhance both yield and quality, and facilitate the development of disease resistant and adaptable varieties. The study was carried out during rainy (kharif) seasons of 2022 and 2023 at Dr. Yashwant Singh Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, Nauni, Solan, Himachal Pradesh to assess the combining ability and gene action potential for 14 fruit yield and related traits in 11 parental lines and their 24 crosses. The hybrid cross Neri-7×Punjab Suhawani was proven remarkably significant positive heterosis compared to both better parent (BP) and the standard check (SC) for yield and related characters. Among the parental lines, Neri-9 and Neri-11 revealed with superior general combining ability (GCA) for maximum traits. Crosses Neri-7×Punjab Suhawani followed by Neri-75×PB-5, Neri-M×Varsha Uphar, Neri-19×Punjab Suhawani, Neri-11×PB-5 and Neri-11×Varsha Uphar recorded with maximum significantly positive specific combining ability (SCA) for yield and related traits. The non-additive gene action was pronounced in governing all the traits as the ratio of general combining ability variance (σ2GCA) and specific combining ability variance (σ2SCA) was recorded less than one for all of the characters. Proportional contribution (in per cent) of the lines was recorded greater than the testers but it was recorded lower than line × tester for the maximum traits. The superior performing crosses Neri-7×Punjab Suhawani, Neri-75×PB-5, Neri-M×Varsha Uphar, Neri-19×Punjab Suhawani and Neri-11×PB-5 showed potential for producing F1 hybrids and releasing as superior recombinants after conducting several location trials.

Brinjal (Solanum melongena L.), commonly referred as eggplant, represents a globally cultivated vegetable crop highly susceptible to numerous pests and diseases. The brinjal shoot and fruit borer (BSFB) emerges as a particularly detrimental pest, causing potential losses ranging from 70–92%. The absence of effective biological control necessitates extensive research to develop brinjal varieties resistant to BSFB as they will have the potential to furnish an eco-friendly, economically viable, and sustainable strategy for pest management in brinjal cultivation. The present study was carried out during 2022 and 2023 at Kerala Agricultural University, Vellanikkara, Thrissur, Kerala to identify superior lines exhibiting resistance to shoot and fruit borer from early segregating generations (F3 and F4) of the cross Ponni × Vengeri which was moderately resistant to BSFB. Both pedigree and single seed descent (SSD) methodologies were employed, revealing considerable variation in qualitative and quantitative traits, encompassing mean, range, and genetic parameters (GCV, PCV, H2, GA, GAM, skewness, and kurtosis) across successive generations. The persistence of trait variation in the subsequent generation was ensured from the absence of selection during the single-seed descent method. Superior lines, namely 1.2.18.8, 1.2.10.7 and 1.3.10.7 were identified through the pedigree method, while 1.3.11.2, 1.4.13.2 and 1.10.16.4 emerged as superior lines through SSD method, having resistance against BSFB.

El cultivo de Penaeus vannamei se encuentra entre las especies de crustáceos de mayor importancia para la acuicultura. Sin embargo, la incidencia de patógenos y enfermedades ha incentivado la búsqueda de métodos alternativos de cultivo. El objetivo de la presente investigación fue evaluar el efecto del balance iónico en dieta sobre la salud del camarón blanco ( Penaeus vannamei) en etapa de precria cultivado en agua de pozo. Se emplearon cuatro tratamientos: T0 ‘‘control’’ (0 mg de Ca+2, Mg+2 y K+), T1 (0.1 mg Ca+2, 1.2 mg Mg+2, 0.4 mg K+), T2 (0.2 mg Ca+2, 2.2 mg Mg+2, 0.8 mg K+) y T3 (0.4 mg Ca+2, 4.2 mg Mg+2, 1.4 mg K+), cada uno con tres repeticiones (acuarios plásticos), los cuales contaron con 50 poslarvas por acuario, para un total de 600 organismos, con un tiempo de experimentación de 30 días. Se encontró diferencia significativa (P<0.05) para las variables evaluadas exceptuando la variable intestino lleno (P>0.05), siendo el T3 el más efectivo, con valores de necrosis (9.30%), larvas azuladas (7.10%), cromatóforos expandidos (10.50%), intestino semilleno (15.20%), intestino vacío (11.00%), lípidos (52.50%) y exuviación (57.40%). Se concluye que la administración adecuada de los iones en el alimento balanceado mejora el desarrollo del camarón blanco P. vannamei en la etapa de precria cultivado en agua de pozo.

La investigación tuvo como objetivo principal explorar la relación entre cultura organizacional y gestión del conocimiento en los hoteles objeto de estudio. Se empleó un enfoque cuantitativo, centrándose en la evaluación de tres hoteles mediante un cuestionario, el estudio fue de alcance correlacional y diseño no experimental transeccional, siguió un paradigma empírico-analítico. Se utilizó un instrumento con validez de contenido, mostrando confiabilidad para cultura organizacional (0.9067) y gestión del conocimiento (0.6771). En el análisis de los resultados se obtuvo que la cultura organizacional destaca un enfoque en el bienestar firme con la ética y la excelencia en el servicio al cliente, sin embargo, en la gestión del conocimiento, se evidencia la falta de documentación esencial y procedimientos para compartir conocimiento. Además, pese a existir una correlación débil positiva entre las variables de estudio, ciertas dimensiones internas evaluadas en cada variable están fuertemente relacionadas dentro de los hoteles encuestados.

Published: December 2024

En la sociedad contemporánea, el acceso a la justicia y el asesoramiento legal se consideran pilares esenciales para el ejercicio pleno de los derechos ciudadanos. Sin embargo, existen comunidades en las que el acceso a estos servicios es limitado o inexistente, perpetuando desigualdades y situaciones de vulnerabilidad. Ante este panorama, se considera necesario implementar proyectos de vinculación que acerquen el conocimiento legal a las personas que más lo necesitan. El objetivo del proyecto es evaluar el nivel de conocimiento legal de las comunidades del Cantón Guaranda, en la Provincia Bolívar, y, a partir de los resultados, diseñar estrategias que ayuden a reducir las barreras de acceso a la información legal en estas poblaciones. Se efectuó un estudio con un enfoque cualitativo y cuantitativo de corte transversal, en el cual se aplicaron encuestas a una muestra de 610 comuneros del Cantón Guaranda. La metodología incluyó el uso de secuencias explicativas, además de métodos descriptivos y comparativos, para analizar las diferencias en el conocimiento legal de las comunidades antes y después de la intervención. Los hallazgos muestran una carencia significativa de conocimiento legal entre los miembros de las comunidades involucradas en el proyecto de vinculación, lo cual resalta la importancia de mejorar su acceso a la información jurídica. Se concluye que el desarrollo de proyectos de vinculación contribuye a reducir las desigualdades en el acceso a la justicia, fortaleciendo el ejercicio de los derechos ciudadanos en las comunidades más desfavorecidas.

La inseguridad ciudadana describe la percepción de una sociedad en la que sus habitantes enfrentan constantemente el riesgo de sufrir delitos, lo que repercute negativamente en sus pensamientos y acciones, así como en la economía y el entorno circundante. Ecuador ha experimentado un preocupante aumento de este problema en los últimos años, afectando así los derechos fundamentales de los ciudadanos, donde el aumento de la criminalidad es uno de los principales factores que contribuyen en la percepción de inseguridad. De este modo, el objetivo corresponde a analizar la afectación de la Inseguridad Ciudadana en el ejercicio de los derechos humanos. La metodología consistió en un tipo de investigación descriptiva, con enfoque cualitativo, de diseño no experimental, método deductivo, con aplicación de la técnica de revisión bibliográfica-documental. En este contexto, los hallazgos reflejan un aumento en la percepción de inseguridad debido a crímenes como homicidios, robos y extorsiones, impactando los derechos a la seguridad, libertad y vida. La criminalidad se concentra en áreas urbanas y portuarias como Guayaquil y Esmeraldas. Se identifica la relación entre inseguridad, desigualdad social y crimen organizado, con grupos criminales que disputan el control de rutas de narcotráfico y prácticas como la extorsión y el lavado de activos. Se concluye que la inseguridad en Ecuador responde a factores económicos y sociales que incrementan el riesgo ciudadano, donde el crimen organizado es un motor clave. Las políticas de seguridad deben atender la desigualdad y el empleo para mejorar la calidad de vida y reducir la violencia.
