Dirigismo e inclusione di genere: i diversi tipi di norme nell’insegnamento delle lingue straniere
Authors: Farina Annick
Published: December 2024

In order to illustrate the difficulty for foreign language teachers of understanding how to position themselves in relation to proposals to modify our languages (in particular Italian and French languages) to allow for so-called ‘gender inclusion’, I include this question more generally in the issue of variation in language teaching, using dictionaries and metalexicographic reflection as a key to critical reading. In the same way that reference works such as general dictionaries or foreign language textbooks now take account of the different uses of language and contexts of communication on the basis of an objective norm and no longer on the basis of the subjective/imaginary norm of ‘good usage’ (whether ratified by academies or promoted by groups or organisations more or less legitimised by the ‘language market’) which reproduces a monovarietal vision of language, the language teacher deals with linguistic heterogeneity using a communicative-actional approach which relocates usages according to the context of use and the intentions of the speakers. The inclusion of connotation labels and pragmatic information in some French dictionaries is evidence of a change in the vision of variation that could serve as a model both for the most widely used Italian dictionaries and for foreign language teaching.
Educazione linguistica, potere e consapevolezza di genere
Authors: Cavagnoli Stefania , Cognigni Edith
Published: December 2024

The contribution addresses the topic of language education and the relationship with gender-
appropriate representation. After an introduction on culture and language, it focuses on the
necessary awareness of the speakers with regard to the use of the Italian language, also in didactic
contexts. It is the starting point for linguistic change and attention to power relations, which are
customary in the communicative sphere. Usage-related examples come primarily from
dictionaries, which describe linguistic routines and with them hand down stereotypical and
discriminating uses of words. Attention to these traditions, especially in language education, offers
the possibility of modifying power relations and the resulting linguistic expressions. For this
reason, the contribution not only provides techniques for linguistic and cultural change, but also
focuses on the role of Italian textbooks and their relationship to the gender dimension.
The Appropriate Sample Size to Avoid the Biasness of the Parameters Estimation in Binary Logistic Regression Models
Authors: Moaiti Jalal A. , Othman Radi A.
Published: December 2024

In general, the maximum likelihood method with Newton-Raphson iteration is used to estimate the parameters of the binary logistic regression models, and also can be estimated using an iterative (re-)weighted least squares (IWLS) whose iterations are equivalent to the Newton-Raphson iterations. However, it is known that these methods produce bias estimates if small sample sizes are used. The main aim of this paper is to determine the appropriate sample size to achieve the unbiasedness of parameters estimates in the binary logistic regression model. To investigate the appropriate sample size three models were suggested and generated with known parameters. The estimates of the suggested models were collected via simulation study, using different sample sizes. The expected values for the collected parameters by the simulation where compared with the actual values of parameters of the suggested models. From the results of the simulation study, it was found that the appropriate sample size to achieve the unbiasness for such models, is 80 or more.

This study formulates a mathematical model to predict marital success by analyzing the interplay between communication patterns, conflict resolution strategies, and financial synergy. A logistic regression framework was applied to survey data, capturing key variables such as marital satisfaction, time spent together, communication quality, and shared financial goals. The model equation demonstrates that marital satisfaction X1 positively impacts success P(Y=1), while time spent together X2 exhibits a complex relationship. Communication X3, shared financial goals X4, and conflict resolution X5 have varying but significant influences, expressed as: Correlation analysis revealed a moderate positive relationship r=0.56 between time spent together and marital satisfaction. Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) further validated the significant effects of conflict resolution F=11.12, p<0.0001 and shared financial goals F=38.12, p<0.0001 on marital satisfaction, time spent together, and communication quality as composite dependent variables. Visualizations underscored trends across demographic factors, highlighting variations by gender, education level, and communication strategies. The logistic regression model achieved a predictive accuracy of 92.24%, emphasizing its robust utility. These findings offer a rigorous, data-driven foundation for understanding marital dynamics, paving the way for actionable interventions in relational counseling and policy formulation. This mathematical framework bridges qualitative insights and quantitative analysis, advancing the scientific study of marital success.
Megacolon Caused by Hirschsprung's Disease in Pregnant Women from a Rural Area in Indonesia: A Case Report
Authors: Yonas Hadisubroto
Published: December 2024

This case report describes a rare occurrence of Hirschsprung's disease presenting in a 26-year-old pregnant
woman from a rural area in Indonesia. Initially asymptomatic for pregnancy-related issues, the patient had
experienced lifelong constipation, frequently managed with laxatives, and had significant abdominal distension.
At approximately 34-35 weeks of gestation, an ultrasound during a routine obstetric check-up revealed intestinal
dilation potentially compressing the uterus. Subsequent referral to a regional hospital confirmed the diagnosis
of Hirschsprung's disease, differentiated from teratoma through imaging and postoperative findings. A classical
caesarean section was performed at 38 weeks, during which a significantly dilated sigmoid megacolon and
fecaloma were discovered and managed with a distal colostomy. This case highlights the challenges of
diagnosing and managing rare gastrointestinal disorders in pregnant patients, emphasizing the importance of
considering congenital anomalies in differential diagnoses to ensure appropriate prenatal care and surgical
intervention.

Authors:   Department of Pathology, Mekran Medical College, Turbat, Pakistan., Sidhwani Santosh Kumar
Published: December 2024

Objective: To assess the accuracy of ultrasound-guided core biopsy in staging axillary lymph nodes in clinically
node-negative invasive breast cancer patients using histopathology as the gold standard.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in the Department of Pathology at Mekran Medical College, Turbat, Pakistan, from April 2023 to September 2023. The study included breast cancer patients who were clinically negative for lymph node involvement. Ultrasound-guided core biopsies were performed on suspicious axillary lymph nodes by experienced radiologists, with histopathological analysis serving as the gold standard. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and overall accuracy were calculated to assess diagnostic performance. Patient demographics, tumor characteristics, and axillary ultrasound findings were also recorded. Results: A total of 132 invasive breast cancer patients were included, with a mean age of 57.67 ± 13.03 years. The majority of patients were diagnosed with invasive ductal carcinoma, accounting for 113 (85.6%) cases. Hormone receptor positivity was prevalent, with estrogen receptor positivity in 119 (90.2%) and progesterone receptor positivity in 116 (87.9%) cases. The most common immunohistochemistry subtype was Luminal B, present in 66 (50%) patients, followed by Luminal A in 51 (38.6%) patients. Most tumors were of moderate grade 77 (58.4%) and early-stage (pT1) 63 (47.7%). Ultrasound-guided core biopsy exhibited a sensitivity of 87.9% and specificity of 100%,
with positive and negative predictive values of 100% and 89.2% respectively, resulting in a diagnostic accuracy of
93.9%.
Conclusion: Ultrasound-guided core biopsy demonstrates strong diagnostic performance in identifying
metastatic axillary lymph nodes in clinically node-negative invasive breast cancer patients.

Se presenta el Diagnóstico del Centro de Internamiento para Adolescentes "Quinta del Bosque", explora la relación de los adolescentes internos con sus familias, muestra aspectos positivos como la percepción de apoyo familiar e identifica problemáticas concernientes al consumo de sustancias, la violencia y la desestructuración familiar.
Las conclusiones subrayan la valía de la familia, aunque también advierten que, no siempre cumple con una función formativa beneficiosa. Se enfatiza la necesidad de proponer y ejecutar programas de intervención que fortalezcan las habilidades comunicativas y emocionales de las familias, así como el acceso a servicios de salud -física y mental- para asegurar el desarrollo integral de sus adolescentes.
Antitrust’s Normative Economic Theory Needs a Reboot
Authors:   Professor of Economics and Adjunct Professor of Law, University of Utah, Glick Mark , Lozada Gabriel A. ,   Associate Professor of Economics, University of Utah, Bush Darren ,   Leonard B. Rosenberg Professor of Law, University of Houston Law Center
Published: December 2024

Antitrust has adopted a normative economic theory based on maximizing economic surplus. The
theory originates with Marshall but was introduced into antitrust as the Consumer Welfare
Standard by Judge Robert Bork, and survives today in virtually every industrial organization
textbook. This persistence is unwarranted. Welfare economists abandoned it several decades
ago because the theory is inconsistent, and we review those inconsistencies. Moreover, welfare
economists and moral philosophers have shown that the theory is biased in favor of wealthy
individuals and corporations—the very powers the antitrust law is supposed to regulate. Finally,
behavioral economists and psychologists have shown that the model of human behavior behind
the economic surplus theory is simplistic and often in conflict with actual human behavior. We
argue that antitrust should be brought into alignment with modern welfare economics. We also
discuss how the New Brandeis Movement’s proposal to replace the consumer welfare standard
with the protecting competition standard could be developed to accomplish this goal.

Authors: Muttaqin Islakhul
Published: December 2024

The large number of cases that occur among teenagers, such as hostility, brawls between groups and other interpersonal conflicts, indicate the low level of personal forgiveness in these teenagers. Forgiveness studies are very important to see the psychological quality of forgiveness in adolescents to reduce deviant behavior such as aggressive behavior. One factor that influences forgiveness is religiosity. The religious norms contained in forgiveness are contained in religiosity. So this research aims to review previous research regarding the relationship between religiosity and forgiveness. Through systematic literature review (SLR) research with a meta-analysis approach, this research contains 17 international and national journal articles taken from the research period from 2010 to 2024. The Meta-analysis uses the Bare-Bone Method which examining sampling and population correlation. The results of this study show that religiosity has an influence on forgiveness. The analysis found a sampling error variance of 0.0025, while the population variance was 0.047. The results of this meta-analysis support previous research on religiosity towards forgiveness. Therefore, to foster and improve forgiveness, the religiosity factor is very important to develop in interventions for adolescent forgiveness.

Keywords - Forgiveness, Meta-Analysis, Religiosity.

The research uses a qualitative paradigm with a Charles Sanders Peirce semiotic analysis approach. Literature study is the method used based on data sources in the form of snippets of dialogue scenes from Farha's film published on the Netflix platform. The formal Object of this research is Charles Sanders Peirce's semiotics and the material Object is Farha Film by Darin J. Sallam. The results and discussion show several representations that can produce several interpretations. The explanation of the interpretation in this film is in the form of social and cultural values based on the theory expressed by Eduard Spranger. In this film, there are at least five social and cultural values consisting of religious, power, solidarity, theoretical, and art or aesthetic values. The various values presented in the film illustrate the setting of this film in Palestine, which at that time was hit by the Nakba Day event. The values in the film are expected to inspire many people, especially in seeing the phenomena in Palestine This research using Charles Sanders Peirce's Semiotics theory only found five social and cultural values and it is hoped that other researchers will continue this research with different theories.

The fortress located on the Pădurea Fagului (The Beech Forest) hill south of Biborțeni-Baraolt town in Covasna County has been a subject of interest since the 18th century, but its history has remained shrouded in mystery until now. In order to comprehend the morphology of this site and its integration in the surrounding relief units of the area, we conducted a series of interdisciplinary studies by remote sensing techniques such as aerial archaeology, LiDAR survey and geophysical investigations. These studies represent a crucial first step in preparing for a new archaeological research project at the Tiburț Fortress in Biborțeni. This article presents some of the results obtained during these studies.
The excavation in the Roman castellum
of Énlaka - Inlăceni in 2022-2023
Authors: Zsolt VISY
Published: December 2024

Previous results were to determine the full extent and warehouse wing of the principia, followed by the eastern, northern and southern vallum trimming in 2016, 2019 and 2021. The purpose of the excavations was also to verify or refute the three- and four-period defensive works assumed by Komp. The 2022 excavation did not confirm his complicated periodization. The wall of the stone fort runs further north of the northern gate tower of the porta praetoria, based on previous surveys and geophysical surveys. The cause of this phenomenon was the slipping of the clay soil. The porta praetoria had two phases. For the first time, in 149, it was built without gate towers or only with not identifiable inner towers, the known towers were erected only at the time of repair and renovation at the beginning of the 3rd century. On the south side of the gate tower, a detail of the via praetoria was unearthed. The protective trench had three periods. The innermost one extends also under the stone foundation of the castellum, so this was the trench of the palisade camp. The II and III defensive trenches belonged to the stone-walled fortress. The pushing of the axis of trench III by one and a half meters out is a consequence of the fact that the wall of the tower jumped out of the former wall plane. Trench II can be linked to the stone fort in 149 and Trench III to the fort restored at the beginning of the third century, presumably during the time of Caracalla, when the gate towers were built. The main purpose of the excavation in 2023 was to fully excavate the porta principalis dextra. Both gate towers and the demolished former wall were excavated. Again, it appeared that the gate towers were built later, based on a building inscription found earlier, at the time of Caracalla. The trenches of both phases of the stone fortress were narrowed in the lane of the via principalis to facilitate passage over them.

Experiencing knowledge: gathering interpretations while dwelling with festival volunteer realities
Authors: Clayton Diana
Published: December 2024

In pursuit of new knowledge production in (Festival) Events Studies, this paper explores the space where Festival- and Knowledge-Studies converge and argues the case for interpretations of lived experiences to generate trustworthy and quality outputs. Interpretivist (hermeneutic) treatments of (phenomenological) lived experiences offer alternatives to traditional approaches, particularly when exploring ‘fuzzy concepts’ that defy simple explanations and measurements. This paper’s purpose is to advance methodological plurality in (Festival) Events Studies and examines a research study and its associated design choices. The project in focus gathered lived experiences of knowledge-sharing activities among festival volunteers as recorded in diaries and through depth-interviews, both of which informed the researcher’s interpretations and four final themes. This paper demonstrates the need for robust standards in gathering rich and deep phenomenological ‘data’, and supports interpretivists’ contributions to reveal new perspectives on the practice and possession of knowledge for Events Studies.

Impact of TP53 mutations on the efficacy of CAR-T cell therapy in cancer
Authors: Mirgayazova Regina , Khadiullina Raniya , Filimonova Maria , Chasov Vitaly , Bulatov Emil
Published: December 2024

The efficacy of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T therapy may not match initial expectations due to the influence of multiple circumstances, some of which cannot be predicted. CAR-T treatment groups include high-risk patients, particularly those with TP53 mutations. A significant body of research has demonstrated that mutations in the TP53 gene play a pivotal role in cancer development and progression. Any aberration in the TP53 gene in cancer is invariably associated with complications and a poor prognosis. Moreover, mutations in the TP53 gene have been observed to correlate with resistance to conventional chemotherapy, prompting the use of alternative therapeutic approaches, including CAR-T therapy. However, there is a possibility that abnormalities in the TP53 gene may affect patients after CAR-T cell administration reducing the efficacy of therapy. This review examines the link between TP53 mutations in cancer and the efficacy of CAR-T therapy, as well as the potential implications of this aspect in therapeutic planning.
Pre-trained BERT Architecture Analysis for Indonesian Question Answer Model
Authors: Sudianto Sudianto
Published: December 2024

Developing a question-and-answer system in Natural Language Processing (NLP) has become a major concern in the Indonesian language context. One of the main challenges in developing a question-and-answer system is the limited dataset, which can cause instability in system performance. The limitations of the dataset make it difficult for the question-and-answer model to understand and answer questions well. The proposed solution uses Transfer Learning with pre-trained models such as BERT. This research aims to analyze the performance of the BERT model, which has been adapted for question-and-answer tasks in Indonesian. The BERT model uses an Indonesian language dataset adapted specifically for question-and-answer tasks. A customization approach tunes BERT parameters according to the given training data. The results obtained; the model is improved by minimizing the loss function. Evaluation of the trained model shows that the best validation loss is 0.00057 after 150 epochs. In addition, through in-depth evaluation of the similarity of question texts, the BERT model can answer questions measurably, according to existing knowledge in the dataset.

The study aims to design and develop a more efficient measurement monitoring system based on influential parameters for the performance of hybrid PV and TEG modules using IoT with the Thingspeak application. The parameters measured include the PV top and bottom surface temperatures and output current and voltage, the surface temperatures of the TEG's hot and cold sides, their respective current and voltage outputs, air humidity, and solar intensity. This IoT-based monitoring system experimental method utilizes two types of PV, polycrystalline and monocrystalline, each rated at 50 Wp, in a hybrid configuration with 5 TEG modules attached to the back of the solar panel. The monitoring design results indicate that sensor measurements were accurate and data readings were reliable. The temperature difference between the two sides of the TEG was measured up to 21.7°C, and the hybrid efficiency of the monocrystalline PV with TEG showed better results compared to the polycrystalline setup, achieving optimum efficiency above 6%, with the PV surface temperature maintained at an average of 50°C. Additionally, IoT monitoring revealed the effect of air humidity on TEG performance: lower air humidity resulted in a larger ?T, peaking at 21.7°C with humidity at 39.1%. Therefore, this study recommends using IoT technology for observational data collection on system performance, particularly for PV and TEG, with sensor component modifications tailored to the characteristics of the targeted sensor object.

International shipping poses challenges such as customs clearance delays, slow delivery speeds, and process bottlenecks, leading to time wasstage, increased costs, and potential profit losses. These issues impact specific processes and customer satisfaction. Lean Six Sigma offers a robust framework for identifying and eliminating waste in international shipping processes. Applying the lean service approach, we identified four key waste types in international shipping: delay, duplication, unnecessary movement, and error. However, a Pareto diagram highlighted delay and error as critical culprits, with sigma values of 1.85 for delay and 2.92, 3.46, 3.77 for the three error types, respectively. These low sigma values indicate significant room for improvement After conducting an impact analysis and failure mode analysis (FMEA), four improvement recommendations were proposed: the implementation of an online shipping form filling system, providing customs training to all counter employees, and creating SOPs for inspection processes at the warehouse. These recommendations form a roadmap for international shipping companies to embrace Lean Six Sigma, enhancing efficiency, reducing costs, and improving customer satisfaction.

The estimation of the electromagnet relay remaining useful life is highly crucial to maintain reliability and avoid unscheduled breakdowns in various applications. The objective of this research work will be to design a model with much higher precision and efficiency utilizing PCA coupled with a hybrid deep learning architecture of Bi-LSTM along with Bi-GRU. The C-MAPSS dataset was of reduced dimensionality, since PCA has been applied to eliminate data redundancy while retaining crucial characteristics, and then K-means clustering is applied to classify the data; afterwards, the Bi-LSTM and Bi-GRU models are implemented for RUL relay prediction. The proposed method in comparison with typical deep learning models has a Mean Absolute Error of 0.021 and an R² of 0.996. Results developed reflect how the model can produce some very powerful prediction, however; what it really shows is great potential for this approach with respect to predictive maintenance of electromagnet relays. PCA may well amalgamate with Bi-LSTM and Bi-GRU models to achieve great scalability according to the maintenance engineering, which offers practical applications in improving the lifetime of the electromagnet relays.
Proximity Index Value for Supplier Selection Using Compromise Weighting of Stepwise Weight Assessment Ratio Analysis (SWARA) Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and MEREC: A Case Study in Indonesian Leather Industry
Authors: Ristono Agus
Published: December 2024

Procurement of new raw materials is needed when product demand increases, and raw material suppliers must be determined to meet the company's needs. This research examines what criteria a company needs when selecting criteria using Delphi. The weighting of criteria cannot be separated from the element of the decision maker's subjectivity; therefore, it is necessary to compromise between subjective and objective criteria. Therefore, the study used The Method of Removal Effects of Criteria (objective weighting of criteria) and Stepwise Weight Assessment Ratio Analysis (subjective weighting of criteria) in weighting criteria. Then, considering the weight of the criteria, the Proximity Index Value (PIV) is used to evaluate and rate the suppliers. The offered methodology is applied to a real case study from a leather manufacturing company in Indonesia to verify its applicability with a sensitivity analysis performed on different scenarios. The findings indicated that the proposed model is dependable and that the rankings are resilient to fluctuations in the criterion weights.

The purpose of this study was to design a software to optimize inventory management in the Office of Information Technology and Communications (OTIC) of the Faculty of Industrial Engineering and Systems of the Universidad Nacional del Callao, Peru. The research arose due to the lack of an efficient system that minimizes asset losses and reduces operational errors in the university context, where resource constraints demand sustainable and adaptable solutions. To address this problem, an agile methodological approach was used, implementing the Scrum methodology in the software design, as well as an architecture based on MVC (Model-View-Controller) with technologies such as MySQL, PHP and CodeIgniter. The evaluation of the system included usability surveys to users and an expert judgment, focused on three dimensions: Reliability, Usability and Design. The results of the study showed a high acceptance of the system in terms of ease of use and user satisfaction, highlighting the effectiveness of the modular design for future extensibility and performance improvements. This study provides theoretical value by highlighting the application of agile methodologies in educational environments and highlights the importance of a scalable design to improve inventory management in academic institutions. In practical terms, the implementation of this software offers an adaptable and scalable solution, with potential for replication in other universities, optimizing resource management and strengthening operational efficiency in the educational sector. The main contribution of the study lies in the combination of a flexible and low-cost design, aimed at meeting the specific needs of inventory management in educational environments with budgetary constraints.

Published: December 2024

Brain tumors can produce symptoms and indicators due to direct tissue death, localized invasion of the brain, or aftereffects from increased intracranial pressure. In order to identify images from the publicly available image dataset, this work combined multiple image feature sources using deep learning algorithms. The architecture of most classic convolutional neural networks (CNNs) consists of convolution modification and max-pooling of layers connected with several completely linked layers. The steps used in this system are pre-processing, segmentation, feature extraction, and classification. The preprocessing procedures of this investigation were used by the modified trimmed median filtering approach. U-Net segmentation is used to carry out the segmentation process. Features are then extracted using the wavelet transform method. In this study, MRI images of brain tumors, including meningnant and benign tumors, were detected and classified using the proposed CNN-based VGG16 model. The convolutional neural network (CNN) architectures employed in this investigation were guided by the VGG-16. The outcomes are assessed in terms of accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score after the suggested model has been simulated. According on the test findings, the recommended approach may lead to 96.9% maximum recall, 97.4% maximum F1-score, 98.45% maximum accuracy, and 98.1% maximum precision.

Lack of understanding of using liquid smoke in preserving chicken fillet food and rubber agricultural products for durability among farmers in Payakabung Village, North Indralaya District, Ogan Ilir Regency is the main factor in carrying out Community Service (PkM). The purpose of this PkM is to educate and improve the knowledge and skills of the Payakabung Village community regarding the benefits and techniques of using liquid smoke on chicken fish meat as a food preservative and agricultural products for the durability of rubber latex products. Implementing community service for farmers is done directly in the field through pedagogical and participatory learning. The activity is counselling and socialization through lecture methods, discussions, and questions and answers, where the community service team delivers the material. Community Service related to the dissemination of liquid smoke technology in Payakabung Village has effectively empowered the local community, especially farmers. Through this program, farmers have succeeded in developing skills in utilizing liquid smoke on chicken fillets and rubber agricultural products for the durability of latex, which has high economic value. The program's success is reflected in farmers' ability to use liquid smoke independently to preserve and improve the quality of products such as chicken fillets and rubber, ultimately opening up new business opportunities and increasing their income.
