Authors: Irsyad Kamal
Published: February 2025

Inovasi merupakan faktor kunci dalam pertumbuhan dan keberlanjutan startup, terutama dengan semakin meningkatnya peran teknologi dalam strategi inovasi. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan Systematic Literature Review (SLR) untuk menganalisis 32 artikel ilmiah yang membahas tren inovasi, faktor pendorong, dan dampaknya terhadap startup. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa startup semakin beralih ke transformasi digital, dengan pemanfaatan teknologi seperti AI, IoT, dan blockchain dalam pengembangan produk dan model bisnis. Faktor internal seperti kapabilitas tim, budaya inovasi, dan manajemen pengetahuan berperan penting dalam inovasi, sementara faktor eksternal seperti kolaborasi dengan ekosistem startup, regulasi pemerintah, dan akses terhadap modal turut mempercepat adopsi inovasi. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa startup yang berhasil mengintegrasikan inovasi berbasis teknologi dan strategi bisnis berbasis platform memiliki keunggulan kompetitif dan peluang pertumbuhan yang lebih tinggi. Namun, masih terdapat tantangan seperti keterbatasan sumber daya dan regulasi di negara berkembang yang dapat menghambat inovasi startup. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini merekomendasikan kebijakan yang lebih mendukung inovasi serta eksplorasi lebih lanjut tentang strategi inovasi berbasis teknologi untuk keberlanjutan startup di berbagai sektor industri.

O estudo avaliou dados sobre a evasão estudantil nos cursos de Química da Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM), abrangendo as modalidades de Química Licenciatura, Química Bacharelado, Química Industrial e Tecnologia em Processos Químicos. Os dados coletados abrangeram informações do período de 2009 a 2024. Observou-se um aumento nas matrículas entre 2013 e 2019, seguido de uma queda nos anos subsequentes, atribuída principalmente ao impacto da pandemia de COVID-19. Em 2024, o número de matrículas retornou a aumentar, sugerindo uma recuperação após o período pandêmico. Em todos os anos analisados, exceto 2019, houve uma maior taxa de ingresso de mulheres em comparação aos homens. Isso reflete uma maior presença feminina nos cursos de graduação na área de Química. A análise indicou que, embora haja uma maior proporção de mulheres ingressantes, em geral, elas também são maioria quando de trata de evasão. Mesmo numericamente maior em número de evasão, as mulheres que permanecem no curso têm uma taxa de conclusão comparativamente alta. No curso de Química Licenciatura, por exemplo, as mulheres formadas representaram 60,83% dos concluintes entre 2009 e 2024. Esses dados evidenciam a necessidade de políticas específicas para abordar não apenas a questão de disparidade de gênero, mas também no que diz respeito ao acesso quanto na permanência e conclusão dos cursos de graduação em Química e áreas correlatas.

Legal Protection for Police Officers in Handling of Labour Demonstrations
Authors: Ra’af Abdi Pandua  , Suwarno Abadi
Published: February 2025

Labour demonstrations often involve social tensions that pose legal risks for police officers. This study aims to analyse the implementation of legal protection for police officers handling labour demonstrations in Surabaya. The research employs a normative juridical method, utilising statutory, conceptual, and case approaches. The findings reveal that police officers' understanding of legal boundaries in managing demonstrations needs improvement, and challenges persist in ensuring effective legal protection. Therefore, this study recommends enhancing human rights-based training, developing clear internal policies on the use of force, and providing proactive legal support for police officers. These measures are expected to minimise the risk of criminalisation against officers acting in accordance with procedures and to enhance professionalism in handling labour demonstrations.
Investigating the Nature of X-Ray Sources in the Andromeda Galaxy Using Chandra and Hubble Data
Authors: Marentes Erika , Rangelov Blagoy
Published: February 2025

Using data from the Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury (PHAT) program and the Chandra X-ray Observatory, we analyzed X-ray sources in the Andromeda Galaxy (M31). From this we identified 799 X-ray sources within the PHAT region. Our analysis suggests that the X-ray sources consist mainly of high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) with a few low-mass X-ray binaries. These sources show a cumulative X-ray luminosity function consistent with other star-forming galaxies dominated by HMXBs. The population of evolved stars within M31, as identified by color–magnitude diagrams, further supports the hypothesis that these X-ray sources are predominantly X-ray binaries.
Hidden Companions to Intermediate-mass Stars. XXV. Uncovering a 2.6 M⊙, 0.36 au Companion to m Carinae (Plus Evidence for a M ∼ 0.5M⊙ Outer Companion)*
Authors: Waisberg Idel , Klein Ygal , Katz Boaz
Published: February 2025

m Carinae is a B9V star and the most massive member of the nearby and young (13 Myr) Carina association containing about 25 stars. It has been reported as SB2 in the past but the nature of the companion was only vaguely assessed. Here we report on a VLTI/GRAVITY interferometric observation which revealed that the companion has a K band flux ratio of 92% at a projected separation ρ = 5.20 mas ↔ 0.36 au. Isochrones based on the photometry imply masses M
Aa = 2.75M

Ab = 2.63M

⊙ companion at a separation of about 20 au and which could be easily detected with modern Adaptive Optics observations.
DDT Theorem over ideal in quadratic field
Authors: Yang Zhishan , Yu Zongqi
Published: February 2025

Let $ K $ be a quadratic field and $ \mathfrak{a} $ be a fixed integral ideal of $ O_K $. In this paper, we investigate the distribution of ideals that divide $ \mathfrak{a} $ using the Selberg-Delange method. This is a natural variation of a result studied by Deshouillers, Dress, and Tenenbaum (often referred to as the DDT Theorem), and we find that this distribution converges to the arcsine distribution.
Building new social contracts: a critical review of ideas and actions to fulfill African aspirations through education
Authors: Saxena Sweta C. , Tesoriere Giuseppe , Ahmed Syed T. , Aidi Wafa
Published: February 2025

This article proposes a theoretical framework for constructing a new social contract through education based on three levers—affordability, accessibility, and applicability—focusing on Africa. The article argues that if governments make education more affordable, accessible, and applicable, they can ensure a virtuous cycle of trust between the government and people, resulting in policies that deliver equal opportunities, create intergenerational mobility, and reduce poverty. The contribution of the framework lies in providing a foundation for new public policy research on the interaction between sector development (like education) and social contract building. The framework is designed to be sufficiently general to systematically investigate broad trends in public policies and sufficiently flexible to accommodate specific micro-contexts in developing countries.
La voix et la machine
Authors: Bossis Bruno
Published: February 2025

Si la musique vocale et l’univers des machines sont deux domaines bien connus, leur croisement dans ce que l’auteur appelle « la vocalité artificielle » n’a encore jamais fait l’objet d’un ouvrage synthétique. Issue des grandes découvertes scientifiques du xixe siècle, la voix machinique a d’abord fasciné les écrivains avant d’irriguer le monde de la composition musicale. Quels rapports les compositeurs entretiennent-ils avec la simulation et le traitement de la voix ? Qui veut en comprendre les enjeux artistiques doit examiner aussi bien les conditions nécessaires à son émergence, les moyens et les modèles utilisés que leurs corollaires stylistiques. Au-delà des gestes musicaux interrogés à travers quelques œuvres emblématiques, l’emprise de la machine sur la voix remet brutalement en cause son statut. Entre rupture et continuité, entre figuration et décorporéification, entre évidence et paradoxe, « le chant des technologies » déplace inexorablement le centre de gravité de la voix musicale.
Climate Sensitivity Assessment at the Regional Scale for Spatial Planning
Authors: Palermo Annunziata , Chieffallo Lucia , Avolio Elenio
Published: February 2025

The aim of this research is the quantitative characterization of climate risk, in order to support spatial planners in choosing resilient adaptive actions at the urban and territorial scale. According to the Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, climate risk is the combination of hazard, exposure, and vulnerability parameters. Vulnerability is a function of the climate sensitivity and the adaptive capacity. From the planners' point of view, climate sensitivity expresses the degree to which the study area is influenced by the climate variability. In this regard, the authors have implemented a GeoDataBase to quantify the climate sensitivity over a southern Italian region, analyzing long-term measured meteorological data (air temperature and precipitation) and subsequently generating synthetic maps by interpolating data. As a result, the authors present climate sensitivity maps of the Calabria region, providing useful physical and data-based identification of priority areas for planning purposes.

The significant burden and adverse outcomes of Trichomonas vaginalis infection during pregnancy highlight the urgent need to understand the factors contributing to its widespread occurrence. Our study determined the prevalence of T. vaginalis infection among parturients using the novel Trichomonas rapid test, and then assessed associated factors among parturients in Lagos, Nigeria.

Methods:

This multicenter descriptive cross-sectional study enrolled n = 188 parturients in the labor ward of three hospitals in Lagos, Southwest Nigeria, from April 2021 to December 2021. We identified factors significantly associated with T. vaginalis infection using the multivariable binary logistic regression model with a backward stepwise selection approach.

Results:

The study revealed a 7.4% (95% confidence interval: 4.1–12.2) prevalence of T. vaginalis infection. The only factor independently associated with T. vaginalis infection was a history of term or preterm prelabor rupture of membranes (PROM) in the index pregnancy (adjusted odds ratio = 11.38, 95% confidence interval: 2.15–60.17).

Conclusion:

One in 13 parturient women in our study had T. vaginalis infection, with a notable association with preterm or term PROM. Our findings, however, underscore the need for further research with a larger sample size to understand the causal pathways and broader risk factors associated with T. vaginalis infection, informing more effective public health strategies.

Competency-based medical education aims to produce competent medical graduates who are well-equipped to deal with the challenges of the health-care delivery system. In the field of medical education, milestones act as a marker to provide insights to both students and teachers regarding the progress of students regarding the attainment of the learning competencies. Milestones-based assessment tends to make the assessment process structured and holistic by giving a clear roadmap for medical students and helping them understand the significance and the expected progression across the different stages of training. In conclusion, milestone-based assessments in medical education possess immense potential in assessing and guiding learning progression among medical students. The need of the hour is to do capacity-building activities and adopt a comprehensive approach to streamline the process of development and implementation of milestones in the delivery of competency-based medical education.

Published: February 2025

Background:

Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a deadly soft tissue infection characterized by fascia necrosis caused by different organisms. It requires prompt diagnosis, adequate debridement, and administration of proper empirical antibiotics pending the outcome of wound culture to reduce morbidity and mortality.

Aims:

This study aimed to identify the pathogenic organism(s) in patients with NF and their susceptibility pattern to readily available antimicrobial drugs.

Material:

A prospective descriptive study of all consenting patients with NF managed at the Plastic and Reconstructive division of the Usmanu Danfodiyo University Teaching Hospital Sokoto, Sokoto state, Northwestern Nigeria, Northwest Nigeria, from September 2018 to August 2019. Samples were collected for aerobic, anaerobic, and fungal cultures. Antibiotic susceptibility testing was carried out using the Kirby–Bauer disk diffusion method.

Results:

Thirty-two patients consisting of 20 (62.5%) males were studied with a median age of 35 years. Polymicrobial infection was more common (75%) in the 96 samples cultured. Escherichia coli was the most common isolate in 20 (28.9%) of the 69 positive cultures, whereas Peptostreptococcus species was the most common anaerobe isolated. E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus, the two most common organisms in the study, showed high susceptibility to ciprofloxacin, 90% and 84.6%, respectively. All the anaerobes showed 100% susceptibility to meropenem.

Conclusion:

Ciprofloxacin and meropenem should be considered in the empirical antimicrobial treatment of NF.

Background and Aims:

Postoperative pain management in open live donor hepatectomy is vital. This study aimed to compare postoperative analgesia provided by intrathecal morphine (ITM) and epidural in open live donor hepatectomy.

Material and Methods:

Patients were divided into two groups. In the epidural (EPI) group, a bolus dose of 0.125% levobupivacaine (5–6 mL) with 3 mg of preservative-free morphine (diluted in 5 mL of 0.9% normal saline) was injected. In the postoperative period, infusion of levobupivacaine 0.125% at a rate of 5–8 mL/hour was continued for 3 days. In the intrathecal group (ITM), 0.3 mg morphine with 1.5 mL of 0.5% bupivacaine heavy was injected. General anesthesia was administered. Postoperatively, both groups received intravenous fentanyl patient-controlled analgesia. Numerical rating score (NRS) scores were recorded at 0, 2, 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, and 72 hours postoperatively. Data were analyzed using the Student t-test, Mann–Whitney U test, and Fisher’s exact test. P < 0.05 was considered significant.

Results:

A total of 60 patients were enrolled. The postoperative fentanyl consumption for the first 24 hours was significantly higher in the EPI group compared to the ITM group (162.5 mcg vs. 75 mcg, respectively; P = 0.023). NRS up to 12 hours in the postoperative period at rest, on movement, and for shoulder pain were significantly lower in the ITM group compared to the EPI group (P = 0.000).

Conclusions:

ITM significantly decreased fentanyl consumption in the first 24 hours when compared to the epidural group in patients undergoing open donor hepatectomy.
Experimental Evaluation of Binary Iso-Dodecane/n-Dodecane Blends for
Emulating Sooting Characteristics of Sustainable Aviation Fuels
Authors: Xue Xin , Sung Chih-Jen , Wang Xiaofeng
Published: February 2025

Sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) derived from renewable sources are promising
solutions for achieving carbon neutrality and further controlling aircraft
engine emissions, operating costs, and energy security. These SAFs, primarily
consist of branched and normal paraffins and exhibit significantly reduced
sooting tendencies compared to conventional petroleum-based jet fuels, due to
their lack of aromatics content. Our previous study investigated soot formation
in non-premixed combustion for three ASTM-approved alternative jet fuels, namely
Fischer–Tropsch synthetic paraffinic kerosene (FT-SPK), hydroprocessed esters
and fatty acids from camelina (HEFA-Camelina), and alcohol-to-jet (ATJ), and
demonstrated that the varying paraffinic composition within SAFs results in
diverse sooting propensities, in the order of ATJ > FT-SPK >
HEFA-Camelina. To evaluate the impact of iso-paraffins on sooting tendency and
validate the suitability of utilizing binary blends of iso-dodecane (iC12) and
normal dodecane (nC12) as surrogates for emulating sooting characteristics of
SAFs, an experimental study was conducted to measure the soot volume fraction
profiles of iC12/nC12 blends with varying blending ratios in the counterflow
non-premixed flame configuration using laser-induced incandescence technique. It
is shown that ATJ and HEFA-Camelina can be well-represented by pure iC12 and the
blend of 25% iC12 and 75% nC12 (in liquid volume), respectively. At high (low)
reactant concentrations, the blend of 75% iC12/25% nC12 (90% iC12/10% nC12)
exhibits similar sooting characteristics of FT-SPK. The present experimental
results indicate that binary blends of iC12 and nC12 have the potential to serve
as effective surrogates for SAFs, as they are predominantly composed of these
two types of paraffinic components. Furthermore, it is found that when the iC12
blending ratio exceeds 90%, the maximum soot volume fraction exhibits a stronger
nonlinear increase. This experimentally observed nonlinearity in maximum soot
volume fraction with increasing alkane branching in the binary fuel blend
signifies the importance of fuel molecular structure effects on soot formation
pathways in counterflow non-premixed flames.
Intelligent Vehicle Trajectory Tracking Control Based on Variable
Universe Fuzzy Rule Speed Planning and Piecewise Preview Model
Prediction

Published: February 2025

Intelligent vehicles can utilize a variety of sensors, computing, and control
technologies to autonomously perceive the environment and make decisions to
achieve safe, efficient, and automated driving. If the speed planning of
intelligent vehicles ignores the vehicle dynamics state, it leads to
unreasonable planning speed and is not conducive to improving the accuracy of
trajectory tracking control. Meanwhile, trajectory tracking usually does not
consider the road and speed information beyond the prediction horizon, resulting
in poor tracking precision that is not conducive to improving driving comfort.
To solve these problems, this study proposes a new longitudinal speed planning
method based on variable universe fuzzy rules and designs the piecewise preview
model predictive control (PPMPC) to realize the vehicle trajectory tracking.
First, the three-degrees-of-freedom vehicle dynamics model and trajectory
tracking model are established and verified. Then, the variable universe fuzzy
rules are introduced to design the longitudinal speed planning method, in which
the road friction coefficient and road curvature are defined as the input of the
speed planning method, and the vehicle lateral deviation is defined as the
scaling factor input of the speed variable universe. Based on the dynamics model
and trajectory tracking model, the PPMPC method is proposed to improve the
accuracy and stability of trajectory tracking. During the PPMPC method design,
the reference value of state quantity in the prediction horizon can be updated
by using further road information and planning longitudinal speed information.
Finally, the results show that the proposed planning algorithm can provide a
reasonable longitudinal speed to reduce the tracking lateral error in the
tracking control, and the proposed PPMPC can significantly improve the vehicle
speed-tracking accuracy and control stability compared with the traditional
model predictive control (MPC) method.
