Published: January 2024

La falta de separación y tratamiento de los residuos orgánicos en México y en el mundo es un problema que afecta al medioambiente.  El uso de larvas de mosca soldado negra Hermetia illucens es una alternativa sustentable para la bioconversión de los residuos orgánicos. El propósito de este artículo es difundir el potencial de las larvas de mosca soldado negra en la bioconversión de diferentes tipos y cantidades de residuos orgánicos, generando productos como el residuo excretado por las larvas, conocido en inglés como “frass”, el cual tiene una composición similar a una composta inmadura, que puede ser utilizada como abono para propósitos agrícolas por su contenido de N, P y K. Este tema requiere más investigación sobre la composición fisicoquímica, la maduración y los pre y post-tratamientos de la composta producida por las larvas para su adecuado uso en la agricultura.

Published: January 2024

El objetivo principal de un mapa geológico es mostrar gráficamente la representación realista de la distribución espacial de unidades de roca y estructuras del área de estudio, e integrarlas en una secuencia cronológica de eventos. Los mapas son la piedra angular de estudios geológicos de diversa índole y temática. En este trabajo se plantea el trazo del contorno de estructuras planas proyectadas en un mapa, como un problema común que enfrentan los geólogos de campo y que, potencialmente, infringe un considerable grado de incertidumbre en el producto final. Las soluciones que aquí se presentan tienen como base la geometría descriptiva y euclidiana y utilizan ejemplos de estructuras en el oriente de la Sierra de Pachuca. Adicionalmente, se enfatiza que el dibujo manual de los contornos es una etapa crítica en la construcción del mapa, independiente de los medios digitales con los que se generará la versión final y que la comprobación subsecuente y sucesiva en el campo, es fundamental.

The name of transgender woman is given to that person whose sex assigned at birth is not consistent with their gender identity or expression. Mexico occupies the second place in transfeminicides. Furthermore, the acts of violence and discrimination, also afflict this group and can be related to negative perceptions towards trans women. On the other hand, health care for trans women turns out to be inadequate because it does not cover their needs. Likewise, within the field of research in Mexico, studies that focus on trans women are scarce. Based on the aforementioned, it is evident that this population remains in a vulnerable state, and it infers incongruously in the bioethical principles that should cover this group. For this reason, bioethics is the branch of ethics that aims to provide dignified and humanized treatment of human life based on four principles: 1) beneficence, 2) non-maleficence, 3) autonomy, and 4) justice. Currently, greater awareness is required among both health service providers and researchers to provide timely care and inclusion in research protocols, which allows the generation of more epidemiological information on trans women.
Orfanatos, asilos, cárceles, centros psiquiátricos, productos del desamor.
Authors: Marquez-de León Verónica
Published: January 2024

Los orfanatos, asilos, cárceles y centros psiquiátricos son los lugares donde seres humanos son recluidos faltos de atención y amor, donde la gente sobrevive en tristeza enfrentando así un abandono y en muchos casos el abuso, por ende, la falta de amor hacia sí mismo y a la sociedad.

Como sociedad y gobierno debemos poner atención especial en estos centros, donde el mismo abandon, hace que al interior se cometan  injusticias e incluso corrupción por parte de las personas que manejan en algún nivel estos lugares. Tal fue el caso del orfanato en Michoacán llamado “de Mamá Rosa” o “la Gran familia”, donde la corrupción,  injusticia, abuso, arbitrariedad  estuvo presente por más de 50 años y estas arbitrariedades, se pudiera estar repitiendo ahora mismo en cualquier centro de este tipo.

Por el bien de nuestra sociedad debemos observar y actuar en base a leyes, y que realmente en estos centros exista un trato digno, promoviendo un cambio en la legislación para que las adopciones sean eficientes y breves. En cuanto a la cárcel, asilos y centros psiquiátricos deben tener un seguimiento real, ya que los bebés o adultos podrían estar viviendo con síndrome de Estocolmo, donde no quieren  denunciar el maltrato que reciben . Como sociedad y gobierno debemos evitar que los seres humanos caigan en estos lugares, para que desde la familia, se de una real atención, buena guía, sobre todo amor.

Esta revisión tuvo como objetivo comprender la relación entre las características oculares y la depresión en personas jóvenes, para su aplicación en el aprendizaje automático. Se realizó una revisión sistemática para examinar el comportamiento ocular en personas con síntomas depresivos e identificar patrones de movimiento ocular relacionados con trastornos mentales. La búsqueda se realizó utilizando las bases de datos de Google Scholar, Semantic Scholar, PubMed, SpringerLink, MDPI, EBSCO e IEEE Xplore. Se revisaron más de 50 publicaciones de los últimos cinco años. Se revisaron estudios de correlación sobre el comportamiento ocular en personas con depresión y grupos de control, lo que proporcionó información sobre el componente de atención en la depresión. Además, se revisaron investigaciones sobre la detección de la depresión mediante algoritmos de aprendizaje automático y datos oculares donde se utilizaron diferentes paradigmas experimentales de seguimiento ocular y conjuntos de datos para registrar información mientras los participantes observaban estímulos visuales emocionales. Esta revisión presenta relaciones entre diferentes estados mentales y el comportamiento ocular, haciendo hincapié en las poblaciones jóvenes. Mediante la tecnología de seguimiento ocular, es posible apoyar el diagnóstico de la depresión y, por lo tanto, prevenir su desarrollo. Se identificaron tendencias generales para las poblaciones jóvenes y adultas, que deben considerarse en futuras detecciones automáticas de trastornos mentales utilizando datos oculares.

Published: January 2024

Aim: The present study aims to investigate the relationship between chronic widespread musculoskeletal

system pain (CWP) and neuropathic pain (NP) among patients, who were diagnosed with obstructive

sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS).

Material and Methods: For this cross-sectional study, the study was carried out in sleep polyclinic of

Uşak University’s Medical Faculty Hospital between 1 May 2017 and 1 February 2018. The patients,

who applied to the sleep polyclinic for the complaint of sleep disorder and were diagnosed with OSAS by

using polysomnography (PSG) but haven’t had a treatment for this purpose yet, were involved..

Results: Examining the PSG results of participants, mild OSAS was detected in 16 cases, moderate

OSAS in 15 cases, and severe OSAS in 26 cases. Pain was detected in minimum 1 region in 89% of

the cases, whereas 38.5% of participants were found to have neuropathic pain (NP). NP was found to

linearly increase with an increase in degree of OSAS (p=0.049). According to Pittsburgh Sleep Quality

Index (PSQI) scores, 54% (n=31) of the participants had poor sleep quality, and according to Health

Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) scale scores, 36% (n=21) of the participants had low quality of

life (QoL). When examining the differences between groups, due to the variables not being normally

distributed, the Mann Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis-H Tests were utilized. to investigate the relationships

among variables that do not follow a normal distribution, Spearman’s Correlation Coefficient was

employed.

Conclusion: CWP and NP were found to accompany each other among those with OSAS. The

prevalence of NP increases with an increase in degree of OSAS. The QoL and quality of sleep among

those with OSAS with pain were poorer than those having no pain. Women with OSAS were found to

have higher pain and lower QoL when compared to men.

Published: January 2024

KwaZulu-Natal Research Innovation and Sequencing platform (KRISP) is the health sciences Research Center of the University of Kwazulu-Natal (UKZN). The platform offers cutting-edge genomics services. It started operating in 2017 and since its inception, KRISP has focused on establishing a professional genomic services laboratory through acquiring state of-the-art equipment, and implementing industrial scale processes and systems. Managers at KRISP also place emphasis on recruiting highly-qualified personnel. At the time of this research, the selected market for KRISP encompassed users from public research organisations, industry R&D and other commercial users. The need for cutting edge-genomics is fast-growing in South Africa and globally, given an impact of its application in many fields of science. Because of the expertise in health sciences research, KRISP is well positioned to offer genomics for infectious diseases’ research and diagnostics. In the marketplace, KRISP faces a strong competition from large domestic and international genomic laboratories. To penetrate the market, KRISP adopted a cost leadership strategy. While the approach helped KRISP build customer base, it is not sustainable because established rival laboratories operate at scale and are able to offer much lower prices. Therefore, KRISP’s survival and growth depend on devising a better suited approach to attain sustainable competitive advantage. The main aim of this study was to explore personnel differentiation as a strategy to create competitive advantage at KRISP. The focus was on understanding whether KRISP’s personnel demonstrate unique qualities that enhance the value of the services the platform offers. The research employed an exploratory case study strategy and qualitative research method underpinned by two qualitative research tools: an in-depth interview and document collection. The findings showed that the elements differentiating KRISP services were its high technical competence, knowledge, diverse skillset and the positive attitude of personnel. Service delivery outcomes resulting from these qualities included high-quality and comprehensive services offering, reliability and customisation. The KRISP environment and work practices were enabling for personnel learning and continuous capacity development. This was key to sustain personnel commitment and creativity.
Leading from face-to-face to virtual: leaders' experiences at the University of KwaZulu-Natal during the pandemic.
Authors:   , Badru Abdulbaqi Eyitayo
Published: January 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic lockdown disrupted the usual functioning of businesses and organisations had to operate remotely to continue working. This brought about a unique opportunity for organisations such as traditional Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), who would not have previously considered virtual work arrangements, to explore and experience the opportunities and possibilities of virtual work arrangements. Post-COVID-19 pandemic, organisations are now re-strategising and incorporating elements of virtualness in their operations, which require new structures and leadership beyond traditional face-to-face approaches. This increasing interest in virtual work arrangements and existing virtual leadership challenges necessitates further research to explore leaders' experiences of leading virtually during the COVID-19 pandemic to identify successful approaches and their specific challenges. The study employed the qualitative research approach to explore leaders’ experiences of leading virtually during the COVID-19 pandemic at the University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN) in South Africa. A purposive sampling technique was used in selecting the study participants. Thirteen participants were interviewed, including academic leaders and directors of professional services. The interviews were recorded via Zoom and subsequently transcribed. Thematic analysis of interview transcripts was undertaken using the NVIVO software. Codes and themes were generated from the analysis to answer the research questions. The study findings revealed that participants adopted and hardened their face-to-face leadership styles upon transitioning to virtual leadership. Amongst the attributes and behaviours exhibited by the leaders were trust, empathy, good communication, consultation, and self-confidence. Some of the challenges participants faced when leading virtually included a lack of participation by subordinates, slow response rates, exhaustion, balancing work and personal life, isolation, and load shedding. Generally, participants expressed both positive and negative feelings toward leading virtually during the COVID-19 pandemic. All participants believed that the era of completely face-to-face work arrangements is over and that a hybrid working model should be adopted and institutionalised in the future. Based on the key findings of the study, a face-to-face-to virtual leadership transition conceptual framework was developed to illustrate the possible journey of face-to-face leaders to become virtual leaders.

This study aimed to propose strategies of how to teach Arabic reading comprehension by using materials taken from authentic sources. It employed a method that combined library research and field research. Library research was executed by searching authentic reading texts that were contextual and relevant with students’ needs, obtained from references, magazines, newspapers, and radio programs. All of which were written in by Arabic native speakers for Arabic native speakers. Field research was conducted by teaching Arabic reading comprehension using authentic materials in in the classroom. Implementing this method, it was found that teaching Arabic reading comprehension using authentic materials should be carried out in three stages: (i) pre-reading stage, conducted by facilitating students to understand the importance of authentic materials and negotiating the topics that the students were interested in; (ii) reading stage, in which students read and grasp  texts through dialogues and group discussion guided by the teacher; and (iii) post-reading, in a way that the students did exercises by answering questions to sharpen their understanding about text contents. This practice of teaching Arabic reading provided such benefits as students were more motivated to study and more exposed to Arabic sentences having more complex and natural structures that were rarely found in simplified texts. Teacher’s guidance at each stage of learning was proven to be able to assist students in understanding the complex sentences. The significant contribution of this study is to overcome the weaknesses of using authentic materials as many studies have reported that authentic materials are frequently too difficult since they are beyond leaners’ language proficiencies. In addition, this research clearly confirms the theory of the importance of authentic materials in teaching a foreign language reading.

The purpose of the study was to investigate the progress of improving student learning outcomes by using cooperative learning methods. Changes in the educational paradigm require teachers to be able to provide meaningful learning and and make students the focus of learning.  The selection of learning methods that are in line  with the educational paradigm is a must. It is supposed to that the learning objectives can be achieved optimally. Implementation of learning Arabic at MTs. Sheikh Khalid was found by the author only use the lecture method and the media used was only a blackboard. The problem faced is the lack of motivation, boredom and lack of enthusiasm in participating in learning activities which causes low student learning outcomes and learning objectives are not achieved. Therefore, researchers offer cooperative learning methods as a solution to these problems due to the fact that this method directs students to be active and independent in the learning process. In this study, researchers used quantitative quasi-experimental methods. The research sample is a saturated sample. Therefore, the population in this study was all class IX MTs Sheikh Khalid. The result shows that cooperative learning method is a method that is compatible with the new educational paradigm, namely the SCL approach. This can be seen from the focus of learning which is centered on student activity. Therefore, the teacher's role as a facilitator is no longer the only source of learning for students. Another finding of this research shows that cooperative learning with its various types is able to respond to the changing paradigm of education with the SCL approach.

The aim of this research is to see how using a mnemonic method with a deductive approach affects in shorof learning outcomes of Interdisciplinary Islamic Studies students at Nahdhatul Ulama University Yogyakarta. Success in learning can be influenced by the selection of appropriate methods by the teacher during learning. One of the methods that can be used is the mnemonic method. This quantitative research used an experimental technique, a quasi-one-group pretest-posttest design. The acquired data were evaluated using descriptive statistical tests, a normality test with Kolmogorov-Smirnov, and a paired sample t-test. The findings of this research demonstrated that using the rhyme mnemonic method with a deductive approach to the subject of isim jamid in shorof learning, paired with the rhyme of sholawat badar, had an effect on students' learning outcomes. This was shown by an increase in the average students’ pretest score from 61.50 to the average students’ posttest score of 81.67. The results of the significant value of the paired sample t-test being 0.000 also reinforced this effect. These significant findings revealed that Sig 0.000 < 0.05, indicating a substantial difference in students’ learning outcomes before and after using the mnemonic method with a deductive approach in shorof learning. Suggestions for further research are to vary learning methods and approaches, considering that this way can affect the level of students’ understanding of the materials taught.

This study, the impact of Bacillus subtilis probiotics on the productivity and faecal microbial variable of commercial laying hens in Indonesia was investigated. A total of 100,296 laying hens aged 18 weeks in a close house system were randomly allocated into two treatments with four replications per treatments. The applied treatments were T0 (control) and T1 (feed with probiotics). The experiment involved feeding laying hens with/without Bacillus subtilis strains 747 and 1781 (bacterial load of 1.5x108 cfu/kg feed, strain ratio of 1:1), collecting data on egg production, egg weight, feed consumption, and depletion from 20 to 26 weeks. Those variable were also observed from 18 to 19 weeks as pre-treatment data. Faecal samples were collected at 26 weeks for analysis of Escherichia coli, Clostridium perfringens, and lactic acid bacteria levels. The results revealed that administering Bacillus subtilis strains 1781 and 747 significantly increased daily egg production by 7.9% and reduced daily depletion by 65% at the end of the treatment phase. However, probiotic supplementation did not affect daily feed intake, feed conversion ratio, egg weight, or the levels of E. coli, C. perfringens, and lactic acid bacteria in the hens' faeces. These findings demonstrate the potential and feasibility of Bacillus subtilis strains 1781 and 747 in improving the productivity and health of laying hens of commercial-scale production. This information is valuable for the poultry industry in optimizing production practices.

Published: January 2024

Metaverse is a space where communication and interaction similar to those in the real world are possible and new experiences can be pursued through the provision of various contents and services. Owing to the recent advancements in the application of artificial intelligence (AI), Metaverse is expected to expand. The convergence of metaverse and AI overcomes the limitations of communication, resolves difficulties in creating space, and maximizes the use of internal and external data. In this study, we present the status of existing studies implemented within the Metaverse Platform virtual campus of Korea Polytechnic and the design of an advanced model that enhances interaction using machine learning such as the latest GPT technology and LLM. We propose to provide an LLM-based interactive internal information search service to improve the user environment by efficiently utilizing internal data and communicating in natural language. In future studies, we will focus on the detailed design of domain data capable of general-purpose services and implementation of the advanced model designed in this study. Thereafter, we intend to design and construct our own reliable LLM model and perform performance evaluation through with external LLM models.

Commonly used surveillance systems are stored as videos only when movement is detected. Therefore, they depend on a limited area. To expand their use, the limitations on the area and storage capacity must be overcome. A problem in terms of accuracy is that when targeting an object at a great distance, judging the object is difficult and cannot be used as evidence. In this study, to compensate for these problems, we proposed an efficient algorithm that could more accurately distinguish the background image and the target object by applying a mixed Gaussian model in the pre-processing process of the acquired image. Consequently, the average recognition and tracking rate of this algorithm was approximately 82%, compared with an average of 61% using conventional vehicle images and movement vectors.

A buried optical fiber sensor that can be detected over a large area per unit length was designed and manufactured, and study was conducted on the signal characteristics according to the load of an external intrusion object. The optical fiber used was designed and manufactured for external intrusion detection that generated bending loss of the optical fiber using a single mode optical fiber for general optical communication with a length of 4 km. This study investigated the change in the output of the optical fiber sensor and the change in the sensor output signal and detection signal owing to the invasion of external intruders according to the width of the pulse pumping light. Therefore, when changing the width of the pulse pumping light, the minimum detectable conditions according to the detection of external intruders were investigated. Finally, a monitoring technique was presented by developing a signal processing algorithm for an optical fiber sensor.
A Study on the Design of Battery Charger for Distribution System
Authors:   Korean Industrial Technology Convergence Society, Lee Dong-Yun
Published: January 2024

This paper proposes a method for the optimal design of a battery charger for a distribution system using a high-frequency PWM power converter to solve the problems of the conventional rectifier-based battery charger for supplying power to the distribution system during a power outage. The proposed battery charger for the distribution system is designed by reviewing the charging time and current according to the battery capacity, thereby reducing the cost of the battery charger system during manufacture and improving charging efficiency owing to the conduction loss of the battery charger during operation. In addition, the proposed battery charger system for the distribution system utilizes a high-frequency power conversion device to minimize the size and volume of the charger system compared with the conventional rectifier-based battery chargers.
Therefore, in this paper, we propose an optimal design method for the proposed battery charger for the distribution system and verify its feasibility through simulation results.
