Este ensayo es parte del libro inédito De Las Armas a las Aulas. La Educación en Tamaulipas 1900-1940 que próximamente será publicado por Editorial Costa-Amic. El objetivo de estudiar esta modalidad educativa, es analizar los motivos que orillaron al gobierno del general Lázaro Cárdenas apara modificar el Artículo 3° Constitucional y la manera como repercutió en la sociedad tamaulipeca. Sobre todo, porque sus antecedentes se remontan al periodo gubernamental de Emilio Portes Gil, quien se inspiró para diseñar su administración con algunas ideas socialistas propias de la época postrevolucionaria, entre ellas el reparto agrario, el asunto obrero y la educación. Todo esto se refleja en los estatutos del partido Socialista Fronterizo, instituto político que fundó en 1924, donde dedica varios apartados a estos ramos. La educación socialista fue una semilla ideológica, promotora de la justicia social que germinó en territorios administrados por hacendados. En algunos casos, al paso de los años muchos de los adoctrinados terminaron por afiliarse a partidos porlíticos como el Partido Comunista Mexicano, grupos de izquierda y movimientos sociales. De igual manera, los catedráticos y maestros egresados de la Escuela de Tamatán se convirtieron en promotores de luchas sociales y organizaciones como la Federación de Estudiantes Campesinos Socialistas de México (FECSM), fundada por el profesor José Santos Valdés, ex director de la Escuela de Tamatán y José Dolores Ponce Rodríguez. La metodología está basada en la búsqueda, interpretación y cruce de fuentes históricas, sobre todo periódicos, discursos y documentos de la época que nos ayuden a obtener conocimientos y esclarecer el desarrollo, resultados y repercusión de este tipo de enseñanza escolar en Tamaulipas.
La migración en tránsito por México y las nuevas agendas investigativas post Covid-19
Authors:   Universidad de Guadalajara, Astorga Morales Abel
Published: July 2022

Este artículo analiza el impacto de la pandemia por Covid-19 en una problemática particular: el fenómeno de la migración en tránsito por México. De manera más particular, se realiza un primer acercamiento a diversas temáticas, y se delinean nuevas agendas y líneas de acción para investigaciones futuras de mayor alcance. El tránsito en tiempos de pandemia incrementó los riesgos y la vulnerabilidad de miles de migrantes provenientes principalmente de Centroamérica. Es evidente que si para el migrante en tránsito los riesgos se acrecientan, también para los estudiosos de la migración surgen nuevas tareas que atender. Este texto busca poner sobre la mesa las nuevas agendas investigativas post Covid-19. Se parte de una revisión de libros, artículos, reportes de investigación, y posicionamientos de las autoridades y los organismos internacionales respecto a la problemática, y se delinean temáticas como: el contexto general de la transmigración por México durante la pandemia, la alta contagiosidad del Covid-19, las nuevas caravanas migrantes, las condiciones de los albergues, vulnerabilidad de las mujeres migrantes, el aumento de la discriminación y xenofobia, y la etapa de vacunación.

El Heavy Metal a lo largo de su historia ha tenido relevancia por ser un género musical versátil, dinámico y cambiante frente a los estigmas demoniacos y violentos que durante más de treinta años lo han caracterizado. Menester mencionar que insertándose en su ambiente sonoro y lírico incita a la reflexión e investigación del porqué su razón de ser, preguntándose de primera mano sobre los antecedentes históricos que fundamentan los temas relacionados a las urbes (sus principales espacios) y las dinámicas sociales por las cuales se ha forjado. Esto último argumenta que esta música propone una variabilidad de contenidos que rebasa el imaginario colectivo y se sumerge en la crítica y problemáticas circundantes que por medio del arte engloba una proyección fuerte, de alto decibelio, tempo y rítmica instrumentales que abarca postulados de protesta, historia de las ciudades, procesos históricos, religiosos, marginales, así como la metáfora, la alegoría literaria, fantástica, poética y temas personales e individuales que versan en el romanticismo, la psique, el nihilismo, la muerte y el mencionado satanismo. Esto último, interesante en términos de continuar la indagación académica a que esta música es poseedora e incluyente de una experiencia filosófica rodeado de religiosidad que embate las sendas de lucha entre el bien y el mal, poseyendo a manera propia un halo espiritual en sus acordes, melodías y en los partidarios adscritos a este grupo cultural.

Authors: Ganchev Donyo
Published: July 2022

The antifungal action of soaps prepared from sunflower oil (pure and amended with various organic materials) was examined towards bread mould.   The results show that at 2-2.5 % percent concentration, pure (without any amendment) sunflower oil-based soap can completely block the development of mould on bread, just like 70 % ethanol solution. Amendment of the soap with different organic materials like dry shells from  Rapana venosa, dry mapple leaves, dry olive pits, and so on can cause differences in the action of the soap towards mould. The highest effectiveness was observed in the soaps enhanced with Rapana venosa dry shells and dry pumpkin seeds.

Published: July 2022

The results of needs analysis from Competency Standards of Indonesian Medical Doctors (SKDI) and the Profile of Faculty of Medicine, the University of Mataram, Lombok Indonesia, show that English has a strong position for students at this Faculty. English is needed for study preparation, graduation requirements, apprenticeship in a hospital, a job competition, and professional development. However, the high demand for English is not supported by well-designed language programs. This article is a part of a three-year project aiming at redesigning language programs based on the gaps between necessities (TSA) and current levels of English. It employs R & D approach. From the analysis, seven syllabi are designed to fulfill various demands, i.e., short-term, mid-term, and long-term goals. These goals produce various kinds of syllabus such as General Academic Reading, Academic Reading, TOEFL Preparation Course (Listening, SWE, and Reading), English for Communication, and English for Presentation. Those syllabi are realized by employing different approaches to syllabus design, depending on the goals and characteristics of the courses. The study yields a number of approaches to cater to students’ needs, i.e., Structural-Based (for TOEFL – SWE section), Skill-Based (for Reading and Listening on TOEFL), Genre-Based (General Academic Reading and English for Presentation), and Content-Based (for academic English), and Topic-based. Syllabi (for English for Communication). This study signifies that different purposes of language learning need different approaches to syllabus design.
Island Schools-Communities’ Preparedness and Resiliency for Disaster Management
Authors: Rico Julynn J.
Published: July 2022

The Philippines is the third most disaster prone country in the world, mainly due to its location and geographical context (Jha, 2018). This descriptive study ascertained the level of preparedness and resiliency in disaster management among the twenty - three (23) island schools-communities in the Municipality of Concepcion, Province of Iloilo, Philippines. Likewise, it determined the gaps and needs in disaster preparedness and resiliency building among the local residents. Results revealed that as an entire group and whether classified as to the type of school, school population, and school location, island schools-communities were “highly prepared” for disasters. Further, findings indicated that they also have a “high level of resiliency”.  These were validated by the participants’ claim that the values of “self-reliance” and “sense of community” enabled them to survive, thrive, and recover from disaster situations. The study has further shown the need to put up food and water supply shelters or storage facilities among the different island schools-communities.

Authors:   Department of Milk and Meat Production Technologies, National University of Life and Environmental Sciences, Kyiv, Ukraine. Email: kostenko_vasyl@ukr.net, Kostenko Vasyl Ivanovych
Published: July 2022

This study encompasses to measure frequency of physiologically motivated emptying the udder by Holstein cows during lactation. With the recording of the hours of the day, the experiment shows that the first-born cows emptied the udder, on average, almost three times a day, the cows having second lactation emptied 2.5 times a day, and cows having 3rd and 4th lactations emptied udder three or more times a day. Analysis of the daily attending a robotic milking machine during lactation by first-born cows showed that the visitation frequency was relatively even, except for the maximum peaks from 11.00 to 12.00 o’clock and from 21.00 to 23.00 o’clock. Similarly, among the cows of the 2nd lactation there were two maximum peaks of milking or udder emptying – at night from 22.00 to 1.00 o'clock and in the day from 12.00 to 17.00 o'clock. For cows having 3rd lactation, there were two maximum peaks of udder emptying - one from 21.00 to 1.00 o'clock at night, and the second from 12.00 to 17.00 o'clock in the afternoon. Cows under 4th lactation had three relatively high maxima: the first from 1.00 to 4.00 o'clock at night, the second from 10.00 to 12.00 o'clock in the afternoon, and the third from 18.00 to 22.00 o'clock at night. This study concludes that high milk productivity of cows needs emptying (milking) of the udder at least three times a day. Since almost a third of udder emptying occurs at night, at that time it is necessary to provide animals with adequate water and feed on the feed table.
AN ANALYSIS OF THE VARIATION IN HUMAN HEIGHT BASED ON PHENOTYPIC TRAITS IN HEREDITY
Authors: Abdulazeez Sikiru Adeyinka
Published: July 2022

The phenotypic traits in offspring’s are often dependent on that of the parents. Taking height as the phenotypic trait, we can obtain a regression model for parents and their offspring’s, and also test for the significance of the overall model. As the detection of causal links between genetic and phenotypic variation is accelerating, a re-examination for our conceptual tools may help by finding unifying principles within the swarm of data. The analysis from this research reveal that Multiple Correlation Coefficient is 0.87 which implies that there is a strong positive relationship between Offspring’s Growth and Parent’s Phenotype with R-squared value of 0.75 which implies that 75% of Offspring’s attribute will result from Parent Phenotype. A Multiple Regression model given as offspring’s Growth  = 58.589 + 0.535Father’s Height +0.140Mother’s Height.The value 0.535 implies the contribution per unit change of Father’s Height in Offspring’s Growth and 0.140 is the contribution per unit change of Mothers Height in Offspring’s Growth. The Multiple Regression model is statistically significant with p-value of 0.003 less than 0.05. Multicolinearity test in the analysis shows that the predictor variables are moderately Collinear observing the Variance Inflation Factor (VIF). The recommendations require parents to put more efforts on preventing negative phenotypic traits from transferring from the environment to their offspring and couples should try to check their Genotype and Blood group since they highly contribute to the Offspring characteristics

Published: July 2022

The semi-arid region of the world is occasionally affected by erratic rainfall and drought which threatens agricultural production and food security. This paper presents the outcome obtained from a review to provide proactive measures that will combat the problems of water scarcity through the adoption of sensor-based drip irrigation by small-scale farmers. The small-scale farmers constituted the larger proportion of the farming population in the region. The paper is centred on the general overview of irrigation practices, advances in irrigation systems, modelling irrigation and cropping Systems, coupling soil sensors with drip irrigation and their adoption. Factors that hinder the acceptance and adoption of sensor-based drip irrigation systems were reviewed and synthesized which include initial capital investment, farmers’ awareness, risk perception and uncertainties, technical know-how, farm size and capital recovery. A simple framework for adopting a sensor-based drip irrigation system was developed. The building blocks of the framework include the dissemination of sensor-based irrigation to farmers, the creation of awareness among farming communities, and the provision of subsidies and credit. Others include the provision of policies and environmental standards and review of the price of water charges. This study will be useful to farmers, agricultural extension agents and policymakers in making decisions about the water resources planning and farming activities in the region.

Published: July 2022

The speedy increase in the pollution of water bodies due to heavy metals discharged from tannery effluents is becoming a serious issue, calling for important measures to be taken to order to curtail water contamination. In this study, a low-cost adsorbent was prepared by carbonizing sweet dattock shell (Sd) for the removal of nickel (Ni) from tannery effluent. The two (Freundlich, Langmuir, Temkin) and three (Redlich Peterson, Sips, Toths) parameter isotherm models were used to fit the equilibrium data using linear regression methods by applying error functions in determine the best adsorption isotherm model. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier ransform infrared (FTIR) were used to characterize the adsorbents. Sips and Langmuir were the best-fitted isotherm models for the process based on error functions. Chi-square error function predicted well for two-and three-parameter isotherm study having the lowest errors values. The FTIR showed a shift functional groups present at certain vibrations. The SEM affirmed irregular surface texture for the Sd with pore openings and whitish spots on the adsorbent. Also, Sd shell adsorption capacity proved efficient as an adsorbent for Ni removal from tannery effluents.

Anemia is a major health issue and associated with increased morbidity. Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is the most prevalent, followed by anemia of chronic disease (ACD). IDA and ACD often co-exist, challenging diagnosis and treatment. While iron supplementation is the first-line therapy for IDA, its optimal route of administration and the efficacy of different repletion strategies in ACD are elusive. Female Lewis rats were injected with group A streptococcal peptidoglycan-polysaccharide (PG-APS) to induce inflammatory arthritis with associated ACD and/or repeatedly phlebotomized and fed with a low iron diet to induce IDA, or a combination thereof (ACD/IDA). Iron was either supplemented by daily oral gavage of ferric maltol or by weekly intravenous (i.v.) injection of ferric carboxymaltose for up to 4 weeks. While both strategies reversed IDA, they remained ineffective to improve hemoglobin (Hb) levels in ACD, although oral iron showed slight amelioration of various erythropoiesis-associated parameters. In contrast, both iron treatments significantly increased Hb in ACD/IDA. In ACD and ACD/IDA animals, i.v. iron administration resulted in iron trapping in liver and splenic macrophages, induction of ferritin expression and increased circulating levels of the iron hormone hepcidin and the inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6, while oral iron supplementation reduced interleukin-6 levels. Thus, oral and i.v. iron resulted in divergent effects on systemic and tissue iron homeostasis and inflammation. Our results indicate that both iron supplements improve Hb in ACD/IDA, but are ineffective in ACD with pronounced inflammation, and that under the latter condition, i.v. iron is trapped in macrophages and may enhance inflammation.

Investment in shares is seen from the rise and fall of share prices on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX), therefore, in investing in shares, investors must analyze the condition factors that affect the company. The stock price itself reflects the value of the stock to the public, a high stock price provides capital gains and a better image making it easier for management to get funds from outside the company. To measure and analyze a company, the main measuring tool is needed, namely the company's financial statements. Profitability is the result achieved by a company in a certain period, for example, at a certain level of sales, assets and share capital. This ratio is closely related to the ability and effectiveness of the company's operations in generating profits. Assessment of profitability ratios, namely the income statement and balance sheet (statement of financial position) which aims to measure the company's profit, both in relation to income, assets, and own capital. So the results of the profitability ratios are used as benchmarks or a description of the effectiveness of management performance seen from the profits obtained by the company. From the results of the analysis Profitability ratios in mining companies listed on the BEI can be seen in the company's financial performance based on the categories of very good, good, sufficient, less, and very poor. With the application of profitability ratio analysis, it can be seen how financial performance is, because the system can automatically calculate calculations for Profit Margin, Net Profit Margin, Return on Assets, Return on Equity. Users of this application can find out financial performance in order to minimize company losses in running a business.

The global burden of chronic liver disease (CLD) is substantial. Due to the limited indication of and accessibility to antiviral therapy in viral hepatitis and lack of effective pharmacological treatment in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, the beneficial effects of antidiabetics and non–antidiabetics in clinical practice have been continuously investigated in patients with CLD. In this narrative review, we focused on non-antidiabetic drugs, including ursodeoxycholic acid, silymarin, dimethyl4,4’-dimethoxy-5,6,5’,6’-dimethylenedixoybiphenyl-2,2’-dicarboxylate, L-ornithine L-aspartate, branched chain amino acids, statin, probiotics, vitamin E, and aspirin, and summarized their beneficial effects in CLD. Based on the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory properties, and regulatory functions in glucose or lipid metabolism, several non–antidiabetic drugs have shown beneficial effects in improving liver histology, aminotransferase level, and metabolic parameters and reducing risks of hepatocellular carcinoma and mortality, without significant safety concerns, in patients with CLD. Although the effect as the centerpiece management in patients with CLD is not robust, the use of these non-antidiabetic drugs might be potentially beneficial as an adjuvant or combined treatment strategy.
Disclosure of Traditional and Complementary Medicine Use and its Associated Factors to Medical Doctors Among the Longhouse Community in Julau, Sarawak
Authors: Sahak Noorzilawati , Stephen Jeffery
Published: July 2022

Traditional and Complementary Medicine (TCM) practice is increasing worldwide and Malaysia is no exception. Despite the wide use of TCM by the population, there seems to be an issue of not disclosing TCM use to their medical doctor. The aim was to explore the related factors that influence the disclosure of TCM use to medical doctor among respondents in selected longhouses in Sarawak. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 90 respondents from selected Iban longhouses in Julau, Sarikei District.  Data were collected using face-to-face interview based on questionnaire consisted of sociodemographic characteristics, TCM use and disclosure, health profile, healthcare utilization and attitude towards TCM. To determine the factors related to disclosure of TCM use, independent t-test and Chi-square (χ2) test was used to examine the relationship between various variables and disclosure of TCM use. The mean age of studied participants was 45.20 (±14.92) years and 80% were married. The prevalence of ever used of TCM treatment was 70%. The rate of disclosure of TCM use among respondents was 27%. Univariate analyses yielded three main factors that significant associated with the disclosure of TCM use among respondents which were education level, presence of chronic diseases and type of chronic diseases (heart disease). The rate of disclosure of TCM use in this study is very low consistent with other local and foreign studies. Thus, other relevant factors that are not studied need to be further explored for better understanding in order to have better integration between TCM and current health system.
The Knowledge, Perception and Attitude of Year 1 Undergraduate Students in the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences (FMHS), Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS) on Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)
Authors: Talip Saiful Bahri
Published: July 2022

Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is a cardiovascular disease where there is plaque buildup in the wall of the coronary artery, an artery that supplies the heart. This disease is also often referred to as coronary heart disease or ischemic heart disease. Globally, CAD has been known as the most common type of heart disease and the leading cause of death. In Malaysia, CAD is also known to be the leading cause of death. Hence, this study aims to determine the knowledge, attitude, and perception of CAD among the students of the University of Malaysia, Sarawak (UNIMAS). The minimum number of Year 1 FMHS students involved in this study was calculated by using Raosoft Sample Size Calculator software. A Google online form (self- administered questionnaire) that consisted of respondent’s characteristics, perception of CAD, knowledge on risk factors and clinical presentation of CAD, and attitude towards the preventive measure of CAD was used to collect the data of the students. The data collected was analyzed by using IBM SPSS Statistics software version 27 while the frequencies, means, standard deviation, and p-value were calculated to achieve the specific objectives of this study. According to the results, out of 200 respondents, most of the respondents were female (76.5%) and participation from medical students (66.5%) is more than the nursing students (33.5%). Overall, females have a better level of knowledge on CAD compared to males. Nursing students have a better level of attitude towards the preventive measure of CAD than medical students while medical students have a higher level of knowledge on other parts of the questionnaire compared to nursing students. There is a significant correlation between the perception of CAD, its risk factors, clinical presentation, and the attitude towards the preventive measure of CAD. Knowledge of CAD clinical presentation and preventive measures has a significant correlation with the gender of the respondents. Meanwhile, the knowledge of risk factors of CAD has a significant correlation with the courses of the students. However, the perception of CAD does not have a significant correlation with both gender and the courses of the students. Furthermore, the results obtained from the study may not represent the level of knowledge regarding CAD on a large scale. Therefore, more research regarding this issue should be conducted more often as it will help to give an even better overview of the level of knowledge about CAD and its association with the attitude on CAD preventive measures among the community.
Knowledge, Attitude, and Compliance to Standard Precautions Among UNIMAS Nursing Students
Authors: Kaushal Dev Nath , Clement Eris Alisca
Published: July 2022

Standard precautions pertain to the minimum standards of infection prevention practices that apply to patient care, regardless of confirmed or suspected infection status among patients in any setting where medical care is given. These practice guidelines not only help to minimize the spread of infection among patients but also help to avoid healthcare workers from contracting infections when caring for patients. Nursing students are equally at risk to exposure to infections during their clinical attachments in the healthcare setting. Hence, this study aims to assess the level of knowledge, attitude, and compliance toward standard precautions among undergraduate nursing students in Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS). It also aims to identify the associations between knowledge, attitude, and compliance toward standard precautions among UNIMAS nursing students. Data was collected from a total of 167 participants using a self-administered questionnaire which was disseminated online via Google Forms. The data collection tool consisted of a 46-item structured questionnaire in 4-parts investigating participant’s sociodemographic profile, knowledge, attitude and compliance towards standard precautions. Study participants consisted of students from the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (with honours) Programme in UNIMAS. Data collected were entered into a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet and was further analyzed using IBM SPSS version 26. Majority of participants in the study demonstrated very good (46.7%, n=78) and good knowledge (50.9%, n=85) levels while only a minority demonstrated fair knowledge (2.4%, n=4) with none exhibiting low knowledge levels toward standard precautions. Most nursing students (97.6%, n=163) investigated in this study showed positive attitudes toward standard precautions practices. Most study participants self-reported their compliance toward standard precaution practices as high (89.8%, n=150) with a minority reporting average (7.8%, n=13), low (0.6%, n=1) and very low (1.8%, n=3) compliance respectively. Further analyses revealed significant correlations between knowledge and attitude (r= .165, p=.033, p< .05); and attitude and compliance (r= -.505, p=.000, p< .05) with no significant correlations between knowledge and compliance (r= -.036, p=.645, p> .05). Undergraduate nursing students of UNIMAS in this study demonstrated desirably good knowledge levels and positive attitudes with a high level of compliance toward standard precautions practices. Despite the overall desirable findings, there is still room for targeted improvements in the undergraduate programme delivery specifically aimed at misconceptions regarding the use of personal protection equipment (PPE) to maintain and further enhance student’s knowledge, attitudes and compliance toward standard precautions.

The specific aspects investigated were: (1) the extent to which the logos, pathos and ethos appeals were used; (2) the use of the active and passive voice in attribution of responsibility; and (3) the use of personal pronouns in the appeals. Six of Mahathir Mohamad’s political speeches in Malay language delivered in 2018-2020 with a word-count of 13,000 words were analysed using Aristotle’s rhetorical proofs. The results show that Mahathir Mohamad relied on logos (56.17%) and pathos (39.63%) but not ethos (4.20%). Mahathir Mohamad came across as a political leader who relied on argumentation and the positioning of himself as a spokesperson for the ruling coalition and the government, reflected in “kita” (we-inclusive) accounting for 50.26% of personal pronouns used. However, in the context of a distressing situation, he resorted to the pathos appeal and the frequent use of “I” to show personal interpretations. The passive voice and circumstantial referents were strategically used in disparaging remarks without identifying the doer. The study indicated that seasoned political leaders have a stable rhetorical style with flexibility to suit situations and audiences.

Namun, apabila seorang pegawai kantor Notaris atau PPAT memberikan sertifikat kepada orang lain selain klien tanpa sepengetahuan mereka, maka perbuatan pegawai tersebut mengakibatkan Notaris atau PPAT tidak dapat memenuhi kewajiban profesinya. Perbuatan pegawai tersebut dapat dikatakan sebagai perbuatan melawan hukum.

Notaries must protect the interests of clients in carrying out legal actions with their assistance. The Notary himself can hold concurrent positions as a Land Deed Official or PPAT as regulated in Article 7 paragraph (1) Government Regulation Number 24 of 2016 concerning Amendment to Government Regulation Number 37 of 1998 concerning Regulation of the Position of Land Deed Official. The certificate belonging to the Notary and PPAT clients is one that must be maintained properly by the Notary and PPAT. However, if an employee of the Notary's office or PPAT gives a certificate to someone other than the client without their knowledge, then the employee's actions result in the Notary or PPAT being unable to fulfill their professional obligations. The employee's actions can be said to be against the law. Therefore, it is necessary to further analyze the legal protection for a Notary or PPAT if his office employee gives the client's certificate to another person without the Notary's knowledge. Keywords: Notary, Land Deed Official, Obligations, Certificates, Clients, Tort, and Employees.
