A Comprehensive Review of Strategies of Topical Niosomes and Their Synergistic Effect for Enhanced Therapeutic Outcomes
Authors: Thilagam N. Bharathi Sai , Karthik V.P , Sowmya C. , Gnanasambandan R.
Published: December 2024

The review aims to assess the potential of niosomes—nonionic surfactant-based vesicular
systems—as carriers for topical and transdermal drug delivery. Niosomes enable targeted and controlled
drug release while minimizing systemic toxicity. The investigation centers on their structure,
stability, and capacity to entrap both hydrophilic and lipophilic drugs, as well as their use in managing
various dermatological and systemic disorders. Recent studies have examined the formulation of
niosomes, particularly highlighting the roles of nonionic surfactants and cholesterol in enhancing the
stability and entrapment efficiency of these vesicles. Research on permeability enhancers has been
reviewed for their ability to work together to improve drug transport and bioavailability. It also provides
a detailed discussion on the use of niosomes in treating various dermatological conditions, as
well as their applications in systemic diseases, with a particular focus on co-delivery systems in cancer
therapies. Niosomes exhibit efficacy in drug delivery by providing an increase in penetration
through the stratum corneum, targeting hydrophilic and lipophilic drugs for dermatological and systemic
applications. The Development of niosomal therapy has expanded into immunization, antiinflammatory
treatments, and the control of pigmentation. Permeability enhancers further increase
their efficacy, bioavailability, and tissue localization. Anticancer treatment using niosomes for codelivery
of agents demonstrates synergistic effects with reduced side effects. Niosomes have tremendous
potential in advancing topical and transdermal drug delivery, offering controlled, targeted
release and improved patient outcomes. With optimized fabrication and comprehensive toxicity
evaluation, niosomes can potentially revolutionize topical therapies, making them safer, more effective,
and patient-friendly for a range of next-generation treatment options across dermatology and
beyond.
A Study on Learning Resources Recommendation Based on Multi-Domain Fusion Network
Authors: Zhang ShuQin , Wang HaoRan , Su XinYu
Published: December 2024

Background:

Considering the singularity of collaborative filtering algorithms in
recommending learning resources and the problem that existing knowledge graph convolutional
networks cannot deeply mine the neighbourhood information of learning resource nodes in
application scenarios with less neighbourhood information, a multi-domain fusion convolutional
network learning resource recommendation model based on knowledge graphs is proposed
here.

Objective:

This study aimed to improve the accuracy and personalization of recommendations
of filtering algorithms.

Methods:

First, the model mapped learner nodes, learning resources, and their neighbour nodes
into low-dimensional dense vectors. Second, the multi-domain fusion layer and the multidomain
aggregator were used to obtain the fused multi-domain learning resource vector. Finally,
the learner vector and the multi-domain learning resource vector were fed into the prediction
layer to calculate the interaction probability.

Results:

To verify the effectiveness of the algorithm, we conducted a comparative experiment
using the publicly available datasets MOOPer and MOOCCubeX. The experimental results
showed that the proposed model outperformed baseline models, such as CKE, MKR, KGCN,
DEKGCN, and KGIN, in terms of evaluation metrics, such as AUC, ACC, and F1. At the same
time, when the neighborhood information was limited, the AUC, ACC, and F1 values of the
proposed model still maintained the optimal value.

Conclusion:

Compared to the optimal baseline model, the effectiveness of the proposed model
has been proven.

Authors: Chauhan Parul , Tiwari Ankita , Emmanuel Okoro , Babu M. Arockia
Published: December 2024

In 2019, a life-threatening virus, SARS-Cov 2 emerged in China and caused destruction
all around the world, affecting many lives; the origin of this virus is still debatable and unclear. The
coronavirus is a contagious disease with high rates of transmission; it mutates rapidly and now has
variants, some of which have caused a lot of damage to lives and the economy. These variants are
mainly classified into three main groups: a) variants of concern; b) variants of interest; and c) variants
under monitoring. Vaccines are the safest and most effective option for preventing covid and
saving lives, as building immunity and breaking the chain of transmission is essential even though
vaccines that have been developed till now have different effects against different variants of coronavirus.
As it is known that vaccines are the main shield to protect from coronavirus, due to rapid
mutation and slow developments of vaccines several people are still getting infected with covid-19.
Many treatment options are available, such as antiviral drugs, nanotechnology, plasma therapy, and
monoclonal antibodies. Besides prevention and treatment, correct diagnosis of the disease is essential,
and for this purpose, different diagnostic techniques are discussed in this article alongside the
possible future of COVID-19.

Authors: Bhat Mudasir Maqbool , Hussain Md Sadique , Bisht Ajay Singh , Agrawal Mohit , Sultana Ayesha , Khurrana Navneet , Kumar Rajesh
Published: December 2024

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a severe, progressive disorder characterized by elevated
pulmonary arterial pressure, leading to right ventricular failure and increased mortality. Despite advancements
in management, the median survival for PH patients remains 5-7 years, with an inhospital
mortality rate of approximately 6%. The core pathological feature of PH is pulmonary vascular
remodeling (PVR), a multifactorial process involving endothelial dysfunction, inflammation,
and aberrant immune responses. While current therapies target endothelial dysfunction, they fall
short of preventing PVR or halting disease progression. Emerging research highlights the potential
of immune-inflammatory pathways, oxygen-sensing mechanisms, and gut microbiota modulation as
therapeutic targets. Integrating nutritional strategies, probiotics, and fecal microbiota transplantation
(FMT) as adjunctive therapies also shows promise. These factors may collectively influence PVR,
offering novel insights into therapeutic avenues for PH management in the future.

Published: December 2024

In the paper was investigated the variability of the morphological and anatomical traits of one-year-old seedlings of different species from the genus Quercus (Quercus robur L., Quercus petraea Matt. Liebl. and Quercus frainetto Ten.) cultivated in a plastic container Bosnaplast 18. The acorn was sown in November 2022, while the measurements of the studied elements were performed at the end of the growing season next year. In terms of morphological characteristics, the highest mean values of both researched parameters (root collar diameter and height) were recorded in Q. robur, followed by Q. frainetto, while the lowest mean values were found in Q. petraea. As for anatomical parameters, the following were analyzed: vessels width, the proportion of bark, pith and wood, as well as the participation of early- and latewood zones. Vessels width shows the least average values in Q. petraea, while no significant differences were recorded between Q. robur and Q. frainetto. The highest presence of wood, as well as the early zone within it, was found in Q. robur. The proportion of bark is a little bit higher in Q. frainetto compared to the other two species, while the pith proportion is significantly lower in Q. robur than in the other two species. Based on the obtained results, we can conclude that Q. robur seedlings show the best performance, before all from morphological point of view.

Authors: Mubarok Mubarok , Mulyadi Urip , Triyono Agus
Published: December 2024

This article will discuss the construction of Pekalongan cultural identity in the ‘Ngalor Ngidul Kalongan’ program on Batik TV Pekalongan. This program was chosen as a context to show how local content from the Local Public Broadcasting Institution (LPPL) constructs cultural identity. One of the differences with other studies on local content is the selection of television media and the concepts used. The concepts used are identity, cultural identity, local content and the role of local television. Batik TV was chosen as the object of research because of its position as an LPPL that differentiates its function and role from private television and TVRI. The method used is a literature study and observation of the Ngalor Ngidul Kalongan program broadcast on Batik TV Pekalongan. The literature study was conducted by selecting journal articles that are relevant to the research theme. Observations were made by reading broadcast descriptions and watching program content. The results of the study show that the construction of cultural identity appears in the program content which includes history, traditions, culinary, current community activities that are associated with the cultural identity of Pekalongan residents. The selection of the host and assistant host represents the figure of a cultural figure and the millennial young generation. This is to show the relationship between cultural materials and efforts to attract the interest of the millennial generation to watch the show. The construction of Pekalongan's cultural identity presented in the Ngalor Ngidul Kalongan show on Batik TV illustrates the characteristics of the behavior and way of thinking of 'Pekalongan people'. The show not only constructs identity from the aspect of type, but also commodifies it as a flagship show.

Authors: Sulton Fullisal Achmad
Published: December 2024

This study aims to analyze the communication styles of presidential candidate pair Prabowo Subianto and Gibran Rakabuming Raka in the 2024 presidential election debates broadcast on television. The method used is quantitative content analysis of debate recordings, focusing on verbal and non-verbal language, ways of conveying messages, and responding to debate opponents. The results show significant differences in the communication styles of the two candidates. Prabowo Subianto tends to use an aggressive communication style that reflects his character as a firm and confrontational leader, while Gibran Rakabuming Raka more often displays a passive communication style that indicates a more accommodative approach and avoids conflict. These findings provide insight into how communication styles can reflect candidate personalities, backgrounds, and political strategies in an effort to gain voter support. The implication is that candidates, campaign teams, political parties, and the media need to strategically design and align communication styles with voter preferences and other campaign elements. However, further research is needed with wider media coverage, a multi-method approach, and linking with other variables to get a more comprehensive picture of the dynamics of communication styles in political contestation in Indonesia.

Calling for Better Ecological Values: Integrating Indigenous Knowledge System with Sustainable Policies
Authors: Mohanty Abhinita , Ghosh Arindam , Roy Shubhagata
Published: December 2024

Sustainability is increasingly becoming a popular term in the fields of research and practice. The concept is gaining momentum due to increasing awareness about the environment of common people, stringent government policies, and the recognition of the finite nature of resources. We live in the anthropocene and the future of humanity and of our planet lies in the hands of today's younger generation (Banerjee and Prasad, 2018). Rapid industrialization for more than the last hundred years has taken a huge toll on the environment. The emission of greenhouse gases (GHS) is continuously increasing the average global temperature. Governments worldwide have imposed different environmental policies (popularly known as carbon policies) to reduce emissions. Despite the stringent laws, increasing awareness, and several high-level international conclaves the emissions around the world are increasing steadily.
In this paper, we have discussed the livelihood of some indigenous tribes of India. These tribes in general stay away from the critical discussions related to “sustainability”, but their practices and culture have upheld the concept of sustainability for ages. These practices often outcome from their traditional knowledge with an inherent respect for nature and its resources. In this paper, we have discussed the sustainable lifestyle and practices of a few tribal communities in the Indian state of Odisha. Encouraging, and fostering these practices can promote the concept of “sustainability” to a large extent.

Authors: Muhibbatul Jannah Siti Nur , Farpina Eka , Aina Ganea Qorry
Published: December 2024

Lead is a heavy metal that often pollutes aquatic biota such as green mussels. Green mussels that contain lead if consumed in humans can pose health risks such as long-term assumptions or in high levels can cause poisoning. To reduce the lead level, we can use apple cider vinegar with and without mother which contains acetic acid and citric acid. The purpose of this study is to observe lead levels of green mussels after soaking with apple cider vinegar with and without mother, percentage decrease in green mussels lead content and the effectiveness of apple cider vinegar with and without mother in reducing lead levels. This study was a quasi-experiment by soaking green mussels using apple cider vinegar with and without mother for 5, 10, 15 minutes. The sample is prepared by drying the sample in the oven and extracting the sample using wet destruction so that a clear liquid is obtained that can be measured using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The results showed that the average lead levels sample soaked by apple cider vinegar with mothers were 0.219 mg/L, 0.103 mg/L, 0.088 mg/L, without mothers were 0.205 mg/L, 0.173 mg/L, 0.125 mg/L. The percentage of lead decrease was 2.6%, 49%, 51% used apple cider vinegar with mother while without mother is 8%, 15%, 30%.  After the one-way ANOVA test, a p-value of > 0.05 was obtained with no effect of lead reduction. Based on research apple cider vinegar with and without mother can reduce lead levels, but statistically, the decrease is not significant.

Authors: Sidiq Budi Perkasa  , Mochammad Facta  , Iwan Setiawan
Published: December 2024

Di masa depan, energi terbarukan akan menggantikan energi fosil. Microgrid arus searah (direct current, dc) memiliki kemampuan untuk beroperasi secara mandiri tanpa terhubung ke jaringan utilitas. Turbin angin, generator sinkron magnet permanen (permanent magnet synchronous generator, PMSG), penyearah, konverter dc-dc boost, konverter dc-dc bidirectional, baterai, dan maximum power point tracking (MPPT) dapat dimasukkan ke dalam konfigurasi sistem microgrid dc. Sistem dengan komponen kompleks tersebut memiliki tantangan untuk menjaga tegangan dc tetap stabil ketika terjadi perubahan beban maupun perubahan kecepatan angin. Makalah ini berfokus pada perbaikan kinerja microgrid dc dengan menambah kendali tegangan untuk memenuhi permintaan beban tersebut dan menjaga stabilitas tegangan dc yang konstan. Pengujian dilakukan dengan tiga kondisi. Pada kondisi pertama, turbin angin dapat menyuplai beban dan baterai; pada kondisi kedua, turbin angin dan baterai menyuplai beban; sedangkan pada kondisi ketiga, beban sepenuhnya disuplai oleh baterai. Hasil pengujian memperlihatkan bahwa kinerja sistem yang dirancang dapat memenuhi permintaan beban dan untuk mengisi baterai. Ketika pembangkitan dari turbin angin tidak dapat memenuhi permintaan beban, baterai dan turbin angin dapat menyuplai beban. Dengan deviasi hanya 1%, sistem dapat mempertahankan tegangan pada bus dc sebesar 400 V. Menurut referensi IEC 61000-14-17, nilai ini masih dalam batas toleransi beban yang dapat diterima.

Published: December 2024

Isolator tegangan tinggi memainkan peran penting dalam memastikan keamanan sistem listrik yang beroperasi pada tegangan tinggi. Isolator memiliki fungsi sebagai pemisah tegangan antara konduktor fase dan konduktor fase lainnya dan juga antara konduktor fase dengan ground. Dalam perancangan sistem tenaga listrik, basic insulation level (BIL) tidak dapat diabaikan. BIL merupakan batas operasional tegangan maksimum sebelum isolator mengalami flashover. Selain harus mampu menahan tegangan, isolator juga harus mampu menahan kondisi lingkungan, seperti suhu, kelembapan, dan polusi, yang dapat memengaruhi kinerja isolator. Pada penelitian ini, dilakukan pengujian untuk melihat kinerja isolator kaca bekas PLTU Adipala ketika dipengaruhi oleh kondisi lingkungan dan dibandingkan dengan nilai BIL. Pengujian dilakukan dengan empat skema, yaitu pengujian dalam kondisi baik, pengujian dengan kondisi basah, pengujian dengan kondisi diberikan polutan, dan pengujian dengan kondisi ketika isolator dengan polutan berada pada kondisi lembap. Berdasarkan pengujian, didapatkan hasil bahwa kondisi yang sangat memengaruhi kinerja isolator adalah kondisi basah dan juga kondisi berpolutan dan lembap. Pada kondisi isolator bersih yang terkena hujan, penurunan kinerja isolator sebesar 19% sampai 25%, sedangkan pada kondisi diberikan polutan dengan equivalent salt deposit density (ESDD) 0,113816 mg/cm2 dan non-soluble deposit density (NSDD) 1,309962 mg/cm2 serta berada pada kelembapan 90%, terjadi penurunan kinerja sebesar 41% hingga 53%. Penurunan yang sangat signifikan ini tentunya mengakibatkan kinerja isolator berada jauh di bawah standar BIL.
Improving the Android Geopositioning Accuracy Using Graham Scan Algorithm and Moment Centroid
Authors: Rachmat Wahid Saleh Insani  , Sucipto
Published: December 2024

Geopositioning is the process of determining or estimating the geographic position of an object through the global positioning system (GPS). The calculations in geopositioning require measurements of distances or angles relative to known reference positions. In Android devices, achieving accuracy, speed, and power efficiency in geopositioning with GPS, cellular networks, and Wi-Fi can be challenging. This research aimed to improve the accuracy of the geopositioning process for cellular networks on Android devices through polygon triangulation using the Graham scan algorithm and determining a moment centroid for the improved estimation of geolocation data. The geolocation data were collected using an Android smartphone with a cellular network and disabled Wi-Fi. A filtering phase on the coordinates was established to obtain the closest distance coordinates from the other. The distances between each pair of coordinates were calculated using the haversine formula, and then the average distance of all pairs was calculated. Then, a polygon was formed by arranging the coordinates in a sequence, which was achieved using the Graham scan algorithm. After obtaining a set of triangles from the polygon triangulation results, the moment centroid of each formed triangle was determined. The centroid, as a result, was compared with another centroid calculation, the Lagrange interpolation polynomial. Based on the results obtained from quantifying the accuracy and precision using average Euclidean error (AEE) and root mean square error (RMSE), the coordinates derived from the moment centroid were more accurate and precise than the Lagrange interpolation polynomial.
Memory as Counter Narrative: A Subaltern Ramayana
Authors: Sreekala.B Sreekala.B
Published: December 2024

In Manini.J.Anandani’s Mandodari, Queen of Lanka the author employs memory as a tool for the narrative of the persona as well as an era. The narrative is in the form of recollections by Mandodari, who is extolled as the pious and virtuous queen of the mighty king of Lanka in the epic tale. In this process of recreation, the hidden aspects of his personality and character came to the fore. As her memory took the form of a narrative, it is revealed how he shouldered the responsibility of the emancipation and the upliftment of his race from a very early age onwards, how he along with his siblings were treated as half-castes, how the knowledge of Vedas was denied to him and so on. Mandodari’s recollections never attempt to obliterate the dark corners of Dashaanan’s character. Her narrative provides an alternate representation of the cliched narration of the epics, thus creating a counter narrative of the familiar tales of Ramayana. As Mandodari walks down the memory lane, the entire discourse of Ramayana necessitated a reconstitution as Ravana is viewed through the eyes of a person who knows him from within. Her memory recreates Ravana as Dashaanan, remoulded him to an individual who is not familiar to the readers of mythology.

O problema do reconhecimento apresentado neste filme convida a problematizar um modelo de consciência enquanto estado psicológico, dependente da memória de um sujeito, apresentando-nos uma outra espécie de consciência, impessoal, mais que humana, oceânica. Qual o lugar do cinema neste tipo de reconhecimento? Fechar os olhos será a misteriosa figura deste problema.
LANGKAH-LANGKAH DALAM PEMBANTERASAN KEGIATAN DAN PERDAGANGAN CANDU DI NEGERI-NEGERI MELAYU BERSEKUTU (NNMB), 1911-1920 Eradication Measures of Opium Activities and Trade in the Federated Malay States (NNMB) 1911-1920

Artikel ini adalah bertujuan untuk mengkaji tentang usaha-usaha pembanterasan kegiatan dan perdagangan candu yang dilaksanakan oleh kerajaan NNMB dari tahun 1911 hingga 1920. Kajian ini dilakukan dengan berfokuskan Negeri-negeri Melayu Bersekutu (NNMB), kerana penulisan-penulisan sebelum adalah menjurus kepada Negeri-negeri Selat (NNS) sahaja. Di NNMB, penularan amalan menghisap candu berleluasa, ekoran daripada kemasukan orang Cina sejak akhir abad ke-18. Amalan menghisap candu mencetuskan kontroversi disebabkan kesan-kesan buruk yang timbul, terutamanya dari segi kesihatan dan kehidupan seharian. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualititatif dan kuantitatif, usaha yang diambil oleh kerajaan NNMB diperincikan. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa usaha kerajaan NNMB memberikan kesan positif terhadap pengurangan amalan menghisap candu dalam kalangan penghisap candu. Antaranya ialah pengenalan Dasar Monopoli Kerajaan, Sistem Catuan 1920, kawalan terhadap penjualan dan pembelian candu, pengenalan undang-undang dan penguatkuasaan yang lebih ketat dan bersistematik. Namun bagaimanapun, amalan menghisap candu masih tidak berjaya dihapuskan dalam tempoh 20 tahun selepas berlakunya perubahan dasar.

Authors: Moro Leandro Silva
Published: December 2024

A Abordagem Interdisciplinar é relevante, porque é constitutiva da condição e do desejado desenvolvimento humano, uma vez que parece não haver nenhum fenômeno genuinamente físico, químico ou biológico, porquanto todos estão entrelaçados ou são interdependentes. Por isso, o objetivo deste artigo é refletir sobre a relevância dessa Abordagem considerando a elaboração de uma proposta de atividade para a Educação Básica contemplando a Física. Trata-se de um extrato da experiência de preparação do professor-candidato-pesquisador-autor para um concurso público destinado ao provimento de cargo integrante da carreira de magistério superior. Em linhas gerais, a proposta apresentada envolve a resolução do problema, “Como ocorre a digestão?”, o que pode: estimular a pesquisa e o pensamento criativo dos envolvidos; auxiliar cada estudante a dominar processos de reflexão e aprendizagem com relativa autonomia, criticidade e de modo interdisciplinar.
In(ex)clusão e (des)igualdade na escola: leituras sobre o preconceito racial
Authors: Giordano Rosi , Ávila Glenda Kelly Ribeiro da Silva de
Published: December 2024

O artigo analisa as causas do fracasso escolar de alunos negros e pardos como resultante da estigmatização e práticas educacionais discriminatórias, bem como a influência das teorias racistas sobre as mesmas indicando a persistência da desigualdade racial no Brasil. Para tal análise realizamos uma pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, no interior de uma perspectiva sociohistórica, concluindo que, apesar das políticas voltadas ao enfrentamento do racismo fincado na sociedade brasileira, as desigualdades raciais permanecem expressivamente justificando a ênfase na formação de professores para a docência na educação básica voltada ao enfrentamento do preconceito étnico.

Authors: Carvalho Siméia da Silva , Pereira Sandra Márcia Campos , Soares Relva Lopes Chaves
Published: December 2024

Este trabalho objetiva identificar como as produções acadêmicas sobre as parcerias entre o público e o privado na educação básica discutem a organização do trabalho pedagógico escolar, visando responder à questão: como as produções acadêmicas (dissertações e teses) sobre as parcerias entre o público e o privado na educação básica discutem a organização do trabalho pedagógico escolar? Esta é uma pesquisa qualitativa, de natureza bibliográfica. Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática de literatura que buscou produções científicas utilizando-se o software Parsifal. Foram selecionadas as produções publicadas no período de 2018 a 2023 na Biblioteca Digital Brasileira de Teses e Dissertações (BDTD). Os dados foram organizados com base na técnica de análise de conteúdo de Bardin (2011). A maior parte das publicações encontradas são da região Sul do Brasil. As pesquisas analisadas comprovaram que a ascensão das ideias neoliberais revela não apenas uma questão econômica, mas uma mudança profunda na racionalidade que estrutura as relações sociais e políticas. Ressaltaram que a interseção entre o neoliberalismo e as parcerias entre o público e o privado na educação básica mostram a complexidade das influências políticas e econômicas na gestão educacional e o quanto as parcerias interferem diretamente na organização do trabalho pedagógico escolar.

Um olhar freiriano para a educação na infância
Authors: Menezes Cláudia Celeste Lima Costa , Nascimento Gilvânia da Conceição
Published: December 2024

Este artigo surge a partir das discussões e debates realizados durante o II Seminário "Paulo Freire, vida e obra em movimento: diálogos que permanecem," realizado entre Sergipe e Bahia em 2021. Com o propósito de refletir sobre a Educação Infantil à luz das ideias de Paulo Freire, o evento trouxe à tona questionamentos que incentivaram amplas reflexões: Quais são as concepções de Paulo Freire sobre a infância? Como ele enxerga a criança? Quais contribuições o pensamento freiriano oferece para a Educação Infantil? Para responder a essas questões, adotamos uma abordagem qualitativa. O resultado desse estudo aponta para a necessidade de assegurar uma Educação Infantil emancipadora inspirada nas concepções freireanas,  visando uma educação para a justiça social, para uma infância visível, digna e prazerosa, capaz de desenvolver as capacidades sonhadora, criadora e ousada de, através da educação das crianças, assim diminuir a desigualdade social. Os pequenos cidadãos precisam de uma educação de qualidade que atenda as peculiaridades da infância. Nesse viés, se faz necessário uma prática pedagógica que valorize o respeito à criança como sujeito ativo em seu processo de aprendizagem, reconhecendo suas singularidades e potencialidades. Além disso, é fundamental que o processo educativo seja baseado no diálogo e cooperação, em que as crianças possam expressar-se livremente e desenvolver uma consciência crítica desde a infância. Inspirados nas ideias de Paulo Freire, propomos uma Educação Infantil comprometida com a formação de cidadãos conscientes, capazes de questionar a realidade e participar ativamente na construção de uma sociedade mais justa e igualitária.
