Beras merupakan salah satu makanan wajib bagi masyarakat Indonesia. Salah satu daerah penghasil beras terbesar di Indonesia adalah daerah Delanggu, tepatnya Kabupaten Klaten, Jawa Tengah. Banyak jenis beras yang beredar di pasaran memiliki kualitas dari segi warna, tekstur, dan aroma berbeda-beda. Begitu pun, peran beras sebagai bahan pangan pokok masyarakat Indonesia menjadikan permintaan masyarakat terhadap konsumsi beras juga tinggi. Namun, fluktuasi yang terjadi setiap tahunnya terhadap harga bahan pangan pokok, membuat tingkat daya beli masyarakat mengalami penurunan yang mendorong tindak kecurangan berupa manipulasi kualitas beras oleh beberapa oknum dengan mengoplos beras dengan kualitas berbeda. Maka diperlukan teknologi yang dapat membantu masyarakat maupun pemerintah dalam mengidentifikasi kualitas beras yang beredar di pasaran untuk menentukan tingkat kelayakan beras tersebut. Dalam penelitian ini telah dirancang sistem berbasis machine learning untuk mengidentifikasi kualitas beras menggunakan citra. Dalam pengklasifikasian, penulis menggunakan metode Naïve Bayes. Sedangkan, pada ekstraksi ciri digunakan metode Gray Level Co-Occurrence Matrix (GLCM) yang nantinya akan digunakan untuk menentukan tekstur beras. Berdasarkan pengujian yang telah di lakukan, dapat diketahui bahwa sistem yang dirancang dapat mengidentifikasi beras delanggu berdasarkan dua kualitas yaitu beras kelas super dan biasa. Pengujian dilakukan menggunakan 40 citra beras di mana masing-masing kelas memiliki dua kualitas citra beras. Sehingga didapatkan dari beberapa skenario pengujian parameter orde dua terbaik pada kombinasi dua ciri orde dua metode GLCM dengan hasil akurasi terbaik yaitu contrast-correlation dengan akurasi 100,00 % dan waktu komputasi 82,59 detik dengan sudut 135° dan jarak piksel d=1.

Published: June 2023

The academic paper highlights the results of studying zoomorphic metaphors of modern Ukrainian linguoculture. Poetic texts of the ХХ - ХХІ centuries were primarily the source base because the language of poetry is the natural medium of metaphor. In poetry, the potential of metaphor is fully implemented. It conveys numerous shades of meaning, and semantic nuances, as well as the purpose of influencing the reader, stimulating his creative imagination, giving aesthetic pleasure, expanding the worldview, involving in co-creation, etc. Publicistic texts containing zoomorphic metaphors were also included in the analysis. The purpose of the research was to identify the principal types of zoomorphic metaphors and to find out the features of their semantics and functions in the language of modern Ukrainian poetry and journalism. It has been established that in the Ukrainian linguoculture, the basic donor zones of zoomorphic metaphors are the concepts of animals, birds, domestic animals, reptiles, and insects. A separate donor zone in Ukrainian linguoculture is the wing concept. Based on these donor zones, the types of zoomorphic metaphors were determined. Most zoomorphic metaphors recorded in Ukrainian poetry and journalism are traditional in their form using and implemented content. They have a distinct ethnocultural color and are connected with mythology. The rest of the metaphors are individually and authorial, arising based on the similarity of the compared concepts. All zoomorphic metaphors are divided into three groups according to the presence of an additional evaluative value: metaphors with a positive emotional and evaluative value, metaphors with a negative emotional and evaluative value, and metaphors with a neutral value. Metaphors of positive evaluation are noticeably predominant in Ukrainian poetry. They create specific sensory images of nature and objects and characterize a person and his mental state. The research proved that zoomorphic metaphors are frequently employed in the English language to convey figurative meanings by likening human characteristics or actions to those of animals. These metaphors utilize the traits, behaviors, or physical attributes of diverse animals to enrich the description or comprehension of a specific subject. It was acknowledged that the prevalence and characteristics of zoomorphic metaphors in the English language may diverge from those observed in Ukrainian linguoculture. The particular attributes, cultural associations, and symbolic interpretations assigned to various animals can vary across different languages and cultures.

In this study, we analyze the effect of selected local and global factors on Azerbaijan's real exchange rate during the period of January 2013 to April 2021, using the quantile regression method that takes asymmetry into account. The results showed that all variables generally influence the real exchange rate at lower quantiles. Specifically, an increase in OILP and CPI leads to a decrease in RER at Q1-Q5 and Q1-Q2, respectively. Furthermore, an increase in RESV and GPR leads to a decrease in RER at Q1-Q2 and Q1, respectively. The effect of the coefficients also decreases as the quantiles increase.

Паранеопластические ревматические синдромы — это редкие синдромы, связанные с опухолью, но не вызываемые непосредственно ею или ее метастазами. Связь между опухолями и ревматическими синдромами изучается уже много лет. В итоге был обнаружен ряд синдромов, имеющих прямое отношение к опухолевым заболеваниям. Их распознавание, ранняя диагностика и адекватное лечение позволят раньше выявить опухолевый процесс, вовремя начать соответствующее лечение и добиться гораздо лучших результатов. Опыт показывает, что в большинстве описанных случаев паранеопластические синдромы появляются на месяцы и даже годы раньше, чем собственно опухолевые заболевания. Острое начало ревматических синдромов и неадекватная реакция на стандартное стероидное и/или цитостатическое лечение позволяют установить диагноз. Наиболее распространенными паранеопластическими ревматическими синдромами являются гипертрофическая остеоартропатия, паранеопластический полиартрит, RS3PE, ревматическая полимиалгия, пальмарный фасциит с полиартритом, амилоидная артропатия, склеродермия, синдром Рейно. Существуют также некоторые заболевания, при которых риск обнаружения опухолей значительно повышен. Это синдром Шегрена, дерматомиозит, а также различные виды опухолей, вызванные применением некоторых цитостатических препаратов, таких как циклофосфамид․
Paraneoplastic rheumatic syndromes are rare syndromes that are associated with a tumor but are not directly caused by it or its metastasis. The relationship between tumors and rheumatic syndromes has been studied for many years. In the end, a number of syndromes were discovered, which are directly related to tumor diseases. Their recognition, early diagnosis and appropriate treatment will make it possible to detect the tumor process earlier, start the appropriate treatment in time and achieve much better results. Experience shows that in most of the described cases, paraneoplastic syndromes appear months or even years earlier than the actual tumor diseases. Acute onset of rheumatic syndromes and inadequate response to standard steroid and/or cytostatic treatment help in the diagnosis. The most common paraneoplastic rheumatic syndromes are hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, paraneoplastic polyarthritis, RS3PE, polymyalgia rheumatica with certain reservations, palmar fasciitis with polyarthritis, amyloid arthropathy, scleroderma, similar syndromes, Raynaud's syndrome.

В норме и сразу после 5-минутной велоэргометрической нагрузки изучен характер изменений некоторых психологических и гемодинамических показателей студентов, за 6-12 месяцев до исследования переболевших COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2). Показано, что уровни всех изученных гемодинамических показателей студентов превышали возрастную норму. Кратковременная физическая нагрузка способствовала переходу гемодинамических и ряда других исследован-ных показателей, характеризующих функциональное состояние организма, из состояния напряжения на уровень перенапряжения. Полученные нами данные подтверждают, что действие COVID-19 проявляется не только на уровне респираторной, но и сердечно-сосудистой системы, понижая тем самым адаптационные возможности организма.
Under the normal conditions and immediately after a 5-minute bicycle ergo-metric load, we studied the nature of changes in some psychological and hemodynamic parameters in students recovered from COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) 6-12 months before the studies. It was shown that the levels of all studied hemodynamic indicators of students exceeded the age norm. Short-term physical activity contributed to the transition of hemodynamic and a number of other studied indicators characterizing the functional state of the body from a stressed level to a state of overstrain. Our data confirm that the effect of COVID-19 is manifested not only at the level of the respiratory system of the body, but also at the level of the cardiovascular system, thereby lowering the adaptive capacity of the body.

Rastrelliger brachysoma, a short mackerel, is a significant pelagic fish that is common in the fisheries in the Gulf of Thailand. The management of fish stocks is a prerequisite for fish conservation strategies and profitable fisheries. Morphological character differences between stocks of species provide a method for identifying fish stocks. This study was aimed to identify stock population of short mackerel in the Upper and Middle Gulf of Thailand. The fish specimens were collected from four different locations: Chonburi and Prachuap Khiri Khan (central provinces of Thailand), Chumphon and Surat Thani (southern provinces of Thailand). Twelve morphometric characters of fish were assessed to determine the stock populations by stepwise discriminant analysis. The results showed that 12 morphometric characters were significantly different among the four populations. In the discriminant function analysis, the first function explained 61.30% of total variations, whereas the 2nd and 3rd functions were 26.50% and 12.20%, respectively. The characters included total length, standard length, folk length, head length, post – orbital length, pre – dorsal length, pre – pelvic length, 1st dorsal to 2nd dorsal length, pelvic to anal length, pre – anal length, head depth, and greatest depth, all of which can be used to differentiate these populations. According to the results of the discriminant analysis, the populations of short mackerel were predicted and subsequently classified with an accuracy rate of 54.88%.

Antibodies are valuable for the detection, identification, and diagnosis of pathogens in many fields, including aquaculture. In this study, we aimed to produce monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against the parasite Perkinsus olseni, isolated from the clam Paphia undulata in Thailand. The mAbs were characterized using dot blotting and immunohistochemistry techniques in order to identify their class and their ability to detect the hypnospores and zoospores of P. olseni. Immunoreactions between the obtained mAbs and P. olseni produced black or grey spots according to the concentration of parasites detected by the mAbs. The quantitative detection thresholds of hypnospores for the two most strongly reactive mAbs were 105 cells/mL (producing grey spots) to 107 cells/mL (producing black spots), and more than 107 cells/mL (grey spots) for zoospores. Both mAbs showed immunoreactivity at the surface of trophozoite cells of P. olseni in infected clam tissues as assessed by immunohistochemistry analysis, indicating that they could be used for the detection and identification of P. olseni infection in commercial Pa. undulata production.

The objective of this study is to examine the readiness of Malaysian millennials and Gen-Zs for fintech adoption in accounting. This study developed the conceptual framework based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT)’s four key fundamental constructs: performance expectancy (PE), effort expectancy (EE), social influence (SI), and facilitating conditions (FC). The research utilized a quantitative method using an online survey to gather data from 108 respondents across Malaysia. The findings indicate that PE and FC are found to be key predictors of users’ fintech adoption intention (AI). It was also discovered that EE and SI have no significance on users’ fintech adoption intention (AI). Also, AI has a significant impact on users’ loyalty to keep using Fintech services. It is observed that PE is the strongest predictor of fintech adoption intention followed by FC, and AI does have a positive influence on consumers’ fintech loyalty due to the positive correlation between them. The result also demonstrates that adoption intention has a direct effect on users’ fintech loyalty. To encourage consumers to further continue using fintech services in the future, it is necessary to build a consumer loyalty base. The presence of one may attract new users to adopt the fintech services hence forming loyalty. Overall, this study may help gauge a portion of Malaysian millennials and Gen-Z’s awareness, adaptability, and acceptance of fintech in accounting.

Most tropical and subtropical nations in the world eat rice as their main meal. This involves hectare-sized paddy fields, whose upkeep and care becomes a tiresome undertaking for the farmers. The caregivers are unable to recognize ailments and are unable to finish the time-consuming task of crop care in a timely manner. This research offers a suggestion for a rapid identification of paddy into unhealthy plants as a result of this laborious operation. The purpose of this work is to offer a system for diagnosing and detecting paddy illness based on performance testing and image processing methods. The system, which was developed in C++ and tested using a dataset of contaminated leaf images, is used. The several varieties of spotted leaves caused by paddy disease are provided in this dataset. Image acquisition, pre-processing, feature extraction, and performance measurement are the system's four key processes. These steps each conduct their own tasks. In addition, this research provides a definitive description of the paddy illness. The image is shrunk and made grayscale in the first phase because it is the procedure for carrying out the subsequent actions. The sick areas are then divided into groups and given labels. As a result, the processing time and signal-to-noise ratio are calculated and summarized in the last phase. According to the study's findings, the suggested system can accurately and efficiently identify and categorize paddy disease in plants.
Study of Margaret Atwood’s Writing Study in Effect on Feminist
Authors: Abbas Muntadhar Jabbar
Published: June 2023

Through Margaret Atwood's works, the research explores the woman's struggle for survival as it defines her role as a woman in modern society. Her books deal with the theme of survival as shown by the female characters. Her books' major themes include failure and fertility, multiculturalism, nature vs humanity, the search for one's own identity, Southern Ontario Gothic, unlikely legends, urban versus rural, and women's empowerment. She has tried to include all of her experiences as a woman, a female, and an essayist because she is recognized as a women's movement author of the 1960s. Patriotism has a strong hold upon Atwood. Her sense of feminism, patriotism and both the Canadian and female characters is also connected to her feminism. Her fundamental compositions reveal her awareness of gender and struggle for existence. Her characters and their personalities are subtly revealed in her stories, which transport the reader to a previous memory through which the present is seen and experienced. Atwood controls women's comfortable and realistic interactions in her books, and she creates a self-portrait of women as artisans and legends who are reliable to their own internal paths. She paints a portrait of a legendary figure whose persona doesn't require depth or tenderness. The protagonists and the novels have a remarkable relationship that allows for the recording of their emotions and dreams.

Background: True tinnitus has no audible acoustic origin and is a phantom auditoria experience originating from a cause or trigger in the cochlea, brainstem, or at highly centers. The Jastreboff neurophysiologic hypothesis, which emphasizes that tinnitus is a subcortical sensation and originates from the interpretation of weak neuronal activities in the peripherals, is the most widely recognized.

Aim: This research seeks to understand the function of vitamin B12 in the management of chronic tinnitus.

Methods: A total of 100 individuals participated in this randomized, double-blinded pilot study, of whom 50 in Group A (patients) obtained intramuscular treatment of 1 ml Vitamin B12 (2500 mcg) once a week for a duration of six weeks, while the remaining 50 subjects in Group B (controls) obtained isotonic salines as a placebo. Pre- and post-treatment audiological and a Vitamin B12 testing were performed on the subjects.

Results: When standard dosages of vitamin B12 were set at 250 pg/ml, 43% of the overall tinnitus patients showed deficiencies. Upon receiving Vitamin B12 medication, individuals in Group A with Vitamin B12 insufficiency significantly improved their average tinnitus intensity index value and visual analogue scale (VAS), according to a paired t-test.

Conclusion: This study shows the substantial predominance of Vitamin B12 deficiency among >>> and the improved performance in tinnitus severity results and VAS in cobalamin-deficiency patients receiving intramuscular Vitamin B12 once a week for six weeks. It also establishes a connection between cobalamin deficiency and tinnitus, suggesting that B12 may be used therapeutically in cobalamins-deficient tinnitus subjects.

A gestão municipal obrigou-se a se organizar e a gerenciar planejamentos e ações voltadas para a implementação das observâncias advindas da referida Lei, fomentando recursos financeiros e trabalhando com orçamentos detalhados. A Prefeitura também se engajou no âmbito social, que envolve as associações de catadores de Vitória e sua importante participação no processo da coleta seletiva. O engajamento e envolvimento da gestão municipal perpassa pela inclusão social das famílias de catadores, bem como pelas questões de suma importância citadas na Lei, voltadas para os aspectos e impactos ambientais, gerenciamento de riscos das áreas de recebimentos de resíduos e seus possíveis passivos ambientais. Neste contexto, esta pesquisa busca mostrar quais são os potenciais impactos e desafios ambiental e social, para a cidade de Vitória-ES em relação à adequação do município às mudanças e prazos impostos pela Lei 12.305/10. Foram analisados registros e documentos dos anos de 2009 a 2012 que evidenciam as ações da PMV ao longo deste período e que permitem checar o que de fato foi feito pela Prefeitura para a adequação à Lei e aos prazos impostos por tal Lei de forma eficiente. Através da análise dos dados, verificou-se que em alguns aspectos a PMV galgou com êxito o atendimento a algumas diretrizes da PNRS. Ao mesmo tempo, ainda não alcançou uma importante questão de impacto ante as exigências desta Lei.

Drought is a recurrent feature of a nature causing significant damage to the mankind and environment. Due to immense increase in global warming, intensity and frequency of drought has been rising continuously over past decades and became a global issue to research on. There are several indices available to assess the severity of drought, however standardized precipitation index and standardized precipitation evapotranspiration methods are widely used by researchers to determine various characteristics of drought over different geographical area. The present study provides comprehensive review of effectivity of SPI and SPEI methods in evaluating drought along with its benefits and drawbacks. Also, recent work done using these two methods are also mentioned. However, drought is depended on numerous factors that could impact on universal use of SPI and SPEI methods giving possibility of using other methods for drought assessment. Apart from this, a prediction model can also be generated to reduce after effects of drought.

ORIGINAL RESEARCH: MIDWIVES’ KNOWLEDGE AND PRACTICE OF MIDWIFERY-LED CARE MODEL IN EMBU COUNTY, KENYA
Authors: Gitonga Lucy , Kirigia Consolata , Mukhwana undays
Published: June 2023

The midwifery-led care model improves maternal and neonatal health outcomes. For midwives to autonomously utlise a midwifery-led care model, they must know what it entails within available practice guidelines. Little is known about practitioners’ knowledge and practice of this model in Embu County. The study found that there are gaps in knowledge and implementation of midwifery-led care in Embu. We recommend educating midwives about midwifery-led care, and the introduction of this model into the region as a means of strengthening midwifery practice to improve maternal and neonatal health outcomes.
HAZARDOUS TERRAIN – PART 1: THE EMOTIONAL LANDSCAPE OF MIDWIFERY
Authors: Greenstock Kate
Published: June 2023

The first research study of trauma exposure and its impact on midwives was published as recently as 2013.1 The last decade has seen plenty written in academic literature about the occupational hazards of midwifery. Very little of it has reached the everyday midwife in NHS practice or the student midwife in educational settings. This article seeks to bridge the gap – bringing current research into plain sight so that midwives can begin to feel the relief of ‘It’s not just me…’ and stop self-blaming with ‘I’m not cut out for this’. The pandemic and current staffing crisis has made it even more obvious that there is a need for clarity and action around our psychological realities.
Assessment of bio-accessibility of heavy metals (Cd, Pb, and As) through consumption of medicinal plants collected from different regions in Nyamira- Kenya

Published: June 2023

Background: In this study, the total and bio-accessible levels of cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), and arsenic (As) in 19 Kenyan medicinal plants from two regions (Manga and Borabu) are presented.
Methods: Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was used to determine the total and bio-accessed heavy metals in plants. The NIST 1647 plant reference material was used to study the performance of the method. The method offered excellent quality parameters in terms of detection and quantification limits of 0.08 and 0.24 µg/kg, 0.5 and 1.5 µg/kg, and 3.1 and 9.5 µg /kg, linearity (r2 > 0.997) and recoveries of 95%, 99% and 93% for Cd, Pb, and As, respectively.
Results: The dry weights of the plants from Manga and Borabu showed low concentrations of Cd (270 ± 20 and 260 ± 20), As (320 ± 20 and 480 ± 40), and Pb (1230 ± 110 and 1160 ± 100) µg/kg. Significantly higher mean concentrations of Cd, Pb, and As (0.45 ± 0.11, 0.46 ± 0.12 and 0.37 ± 0.10 µg/kg) than (0.32 ± 0.07, 0.34 ± 0.11 and 0.26 ± 0.08 µg/kg) were bioaccessible enzymatically than aquatically from dry weight (p<0.05). The percentage bioaccessibility of the elements from the plants ranged from 0.08 to 10.66% and 0.02 to 2.56% for the enzymatic and aquatic procedures, respectively. 
Conclusion: The low bioaccessible concentrations of heavy (toxic) elements in plants justify their therapeutic use.
Pie equinovaro congénito tratamiento y pronostico actual.
Authors: Rueda-Leguisamo Kristell Kassandra , Aldaz-Santamaria Monica Patricia
Published: June 2023

El pie equinovaro congénito (PEC) es una anomalía ortopédica compleja presente al nacer que afecta al pie y al tobillo. Esta condición se caracteriza por la inversión del talón, la aducción del antepié y la supinación de la parte media del pie. En consecuencia, el PEC puede causar dificultades funcionales y estéticas en la vida del paciente. A lo largo de los años, el tratamiento ha experimentado una evolución considerable. En efecto, en los últimos tiempos, se ha registrado un incremento en la orientación hacia el método de Ponseti. Este método, que se ha mostrado eficaz y seguro, consta de manipulaciones y yesos seriados, seguidos de un corte percutáneo del tendón de Aquiles y la implementación de un aparato de abducción. Además, existen otras modalidades de tratamiento como: el enfoque quirúrgico de Kite y la cirugía ósea correctiva son opciones consideradas en casos severos o resistentes al tratamiento conservador. Basándose en los hallazgos adquiridos, se ha deducido que el enfoque de Ponseti es el tratamiento predilecto y de elección inicial para este trastorno. Esta preferencia se basa en su eficacia, seguridad y resultados funcionales y estéticos a largo plazo. El pronóstico de estos pacientes está fuertemente influenciado por la severidad de la deformidad, la edad en que se inicia el tratamiento y el apego al plan de tratamiento. Por tanto, el seguimiento y la intervención temprana en casos de recurrencia o complicaciones son esenciales para mejorar los resultados y garantizar una vida funcional y sin dolor para los pacientes.
Modal Transformation based Fault Location in Radial Distribution Network
Authors: Aung Thant Sin , Swe Wunna
Published: June 2023

This paper introduces the technique of fault distance estimation based on modal transformation and signal processing. The recorded faulted phase currents are applied to the Karrenbauer model transformation and these model component currents are decomposed into detail coefficients by the use of Daubechies wavelet, db6. The fault recorder installed at the terminal of the feeder records different time delays between the modal components. In order to find fault distance, the time delay values and modal components velocity are used in traveling wave theory. This paper compares two different conditions: the first condition does not use a modal transformation and the second condition uses a modal transformation. When using modal transformation conditions, three different coefficient levels (detail coefficient level 1 (D1); the combination of detail coefficient level 1+2 (D1+2) and the combination of detail coefficient level 1+2+3 (D1+2+3) ) are used to estimate the fault distance. Different fault types with different fault locations are created in MATLAB simulation.
Effect of Temperature, Holding Time, and Addition of Sn on Density on Metal Injection Molding Sintering Process

Published: June 2023

Metal injection molding (MIM) is a metal forming technique that combines powder metallurgy with plastic injection molding. MIM is very efficient in manufacturing small and complex products in large quantities. The MIM process has four steps: mixing, debinding, injection molding, and sintering. This research was conducted to determine the effect of variations in Sn addition, temperature, and holding time on the density of Al-PP products after the sintering process. Density is mass per volume so to find out the volume of Al-PP products, the use of a 3D scanner was attempted along with the EinScan application and a mesh mixer. The Taguchi method was used for data processing to determine the influence of variations in Sn addition, temperature, and holding time on density. The calculation of the percentage contribution showed that variations in Sn addition, temperature, and holding time affected density by 47%, 21%, and 3%. Also, 2% Sn addition yielded a reasonably good microstructure formation compared to without Sn addition and 1% Sn addition, where many voids remained in the specimen (the more significant the voids, the lower the density).
