Published: November 2024

O zolpidem foi desenvolvido para tratar insônia e prevenir a sedação excessiva e a sonolência diurna associadas aos benzodiazepínicos. Inicialmente acreditava-se que apresentavam baixo risco de dependência. No entanto, ao longo dos anos, foi observado um perfil diferente. Diante disso, o objetivo deste trabalho foi realizar uma revisão de literatura a fim de mostrar as principais reações adversas e características de dependência relacionados ao uso de zolpidem. Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática da literatura, a partir da busca sistemática dos artigos indexados dos últimos 10 anos, na base de dados Literatura  Latino-Americana  e  do  Caribe  em Ciências  da  Saúde  (LILACS), Scientific Eletronic Library Online (Scielo) e National Library of Medicine (MEDLINE). Os descritores para  busca  foram  definidos  após  consulta  no  DeCS  (Descritores  em  Ciências  da Saúde), associados entre si, conforme combinações pelo operador booleano “AND”, sendo eles: zolpidem, efeitos adversos, farmacodependência e farmacologia. Nesse sentido, foram incluídos 11 artigos na pesquisa, os quais mostraram que o uso do zolpidem é extremamente importante no tratamento da insônia. No entanto seu uso deve ser acompanhado especialmente em pacientes idosos, do sexo feminino, que apresentam comorbidades psiquiátricas e que fazem uso de outros medicamentos controlados. Conclui-se assim que o zolpidem apresenta perfil amplo de reações adversas e dependência.

O traumatismo múltiplo de mão por artefatos explosivos é um problema de saúde pública. Dessa maneira, este artigo apresenta uma revisão de literatura com o objetivo de identificar as práticas no tratamento destas lesões. A pesquisa foi conduzida na base de dados MEDLINE, utilizando termos específicos relacionados a lesões por explosão, abrangendo os últimos 10 anos. Foram selecionados 5 estudos que atenderam aos critérios de inclusão, como foco em lesões de mão e detalhamento de abordagens de tratamento. A seleção foi feita com base na qualidade metodológica e relevância clínica. Os estudos revelaram alta incidência de amputações e fraturas. Além disso, destacaram necessidade de intervenções farmacológicas e cirúrgicas, com ênfase no alívio da dor e prevenção de infecções. Observou-se também uma lacuna significativa na formação dos profissionais de saúde para lidar com traumas dessa natureza, evidenciando a necessidade de treinamento especializado. Apesar das contribuições, a revisão revelou a escassez de pesquisas robustas sobre o tema, indicando a necessidade de mais estudos que explorem diferentes abordagens terapêuticas e protocolos de reabilitação.

O crescente uso de dispositivos digitais entre crianças e adolescentes tem gerado preocupações sobre o impacto desse comportamento no desenvolvimento do Transtorno de Déficit de Atenção com Hiperatividade (TDAH), especialmente em indivíduos predispostos geneticamente. Objetiva-se, neste trabalho, investigar a relação entre o tempo de tela e o agravamento dos sintomas de TDAH, além de analisar fatores genéticos e neurológicos associados. Para tanto, realizou-se uma revisão integrativa da literatura, analisando estudos publicados entre 2019 e 2024. A busca foi realizada nas bases de dados PubMed, utilizando os descritores "Screen Time" e "Attention Deficit and Disruptive Behavior Disorders", selecionando artigos relevantes ao impacto do tempo de tela no TDAH. Observa-se que o tempo excessivo de tela está associado ao aumento de sintomas como desatenção, impulsividade e hiperatividade, além de prejudicar a qualidade do sono e as habilidades sociais. Crianças geneticamente predispostas ao TDAH são particularmente vulneráveis aos efeitos negativos do uso prolongado de dispositivos eletrônicos. Conclui-se que o uso excessivo de telas atua como um fator potencializador dos sintomas de TDAH. Portanto, estratégias de limitação do tempo de tela, supervisão parental ativa e seleção de conteúdos educativos são essenciais para mitigar esses efeitos e promover um desenvolvimento saudável em crianças e adolescentes com TDAH.

Published: November 2024

A busca por tratamentos odontológicos estéticos, como clareamento dental e facetas dentárias, está se tornando cada vez mais popular. O objetivo desta pesquisa é avaliar e comparar a eficácia e longevidade desses dois métodos para tratamento de dentes escurecidos. A abordagem utilizada teve como objetivo realizar uma revisão abrangente da literatura científica atual. O clareamento dental, apesar de eficaz a curto prazo, pode apresentar o reaparecimento de manchas e danos ao esmalte dentário. Em contrapartida, as facetas dentárias, inclusive as de porcelana, apresentam maior durabilidade e proteção ao esmalte, sendo uma solução para longo prazo. Os resultados apontam que a escolha entre clareamento e facetas deve levar em consideração fatores como a expectativa do paciente, além dos custos envolvidos. A conclusão é que, embora o clareamento seja uma alternativa menos agressiva, as facetas dentárias oferecem maior durabilidade e manutenção reduzida, sendo perfeitas para quem procura resultados mais duradouros.

Published: November 2024

A Disfunção Temporomandibular (DTM) é uma condição multifatorial que afeta a articulação temporomandibular (ATM) e os músculos mastigatórios, gerando dor e dificuldade de movimento, com prevalência de até 75% ao longo da vida. A DTM é mais frequente em mulheres, especialmente entre 25 e 30 anos, e após os 50 anos devido à artrose da ATM. Esta pesquisa investigou o impacto da Educação em Dor (Pain Science Education - PSE) no tratamento de pacientes com artralgia na ATM, utilizando uma revisão integrativa de literatura com 8 artigos selecionados.A PSE tem como objetivo reconceituar a dor, ajudando os pacientes a compreenderem que a dor nem sempre reflete um dano estrutural, mas pode estar relacionada à sensibilização do sistema nervoso central. A revisão indicou que a PSE, combinada com estratégias de autocuidado como exercícios mandibulares, massagem e correção de hábitos parafuncionais, contribuiu significativamente para a redução da dor, melhora da qualidade de vida e funcionalidade dos pacientes. Os resultados destacam a importância de uma abordagem biopsicossocial no manejo da DTM, mostrando que a educação sobre a condição aumenta o empoderamento dos pacientes e a adesão aos tratamentos conservadores. Embora tenha havido melhorias significativas nos sintomas, ainda há uma lacuna na padronização das intervenções educativas, especialmente em pacientes com comorbidades. Conclui-se que a PSE é eficaz no manejo da DTM, mas mais pesquisas são necessárias para otimizar os tratamentos a longo prazo.

Российский опыт Третьего цикла Периодической отчётности системы всемирного наследия
Authors: В.А. Родионова , П.О. Адамовская
Published: November 2024

Становясь частью системы всемирного наследия, объекты культурного и природного наследия принимают на себя обязательство следовать положениям, изложенным в Конвенции об охране всемирного культурного и природного наследия (1972). В качестве одного из главных инструментов, который позволяет отслеживать имплементацию данного основополагающего документа, выступает процедура Периодической отчётности. Будучи важным инструментом самодиагностики для управляющих объектами всемирного наследия, опыт курирования Третьего цикла Периодической отчётности оказался в равной мере полезным и для Института Наследия как Национального координатора. Так, по итогам Третьего цикла Институт Наследия выявил ключевые закономерности и сложности в управлении российскими объектами всемирного наследия. В данной статье авторы анализируют опыт прохождения российскими объектами всемирного культурного и природного наследия Третьего цикла Периодической отчётности в 2023 году. Заключительная часть статьи содержит ряд рекомендаций для управляющих российскими объектами по результатам проведённого анализа.

Through their participation in the World Heritage system, cultural and natural heritage sites show willingness to follow main preservation concepts laid out in the Convention concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage (1972). One of the key instruments allowing to monitor implementation of this fundamental document is the Periodic Reporting procedure. While being a useful self-diagnostic tool for World Heritage objects, coordination of the Third Cycle of Periodic Reporting proved to be equally useful for the Heritage Institute as the National coordinator. Results of the Third Cycle of Periodic Reporting exercise allowed the Heritage Institute to determine main patterns and difficulties that Russian World Heritage objects came across. The paper provides an in-depth analysis of the Third Cycle of UNESCO Periodic Reporting that the Russian Natural and Cultural World Heritage sites partook in 2023. Analysing experiences with the self-reporting mechanism of individual World Heritage sites is then used to create a set of recommendations for the Russian sites managers.
К проблеме обнаружения и коллекционирования археологических предметов
Authors: К.Е. Рыбак
Published: November 2024

Обсуждаются вопросы об ответственности за совершение сделок с археологическими предметами. Делается вывод, что в целом допускается отчуждение частными лицами археологических предметов, если только предметы были включены в состав Музейного фонда Российской Федерации. При этом открытым остается вопрос о рисках, связанных с изъятием археологических предметов, не включенных в состав Музейного фонда, предоставленных частными лицами на выставки в музеи. Также в статье анализируется корректность использования категории «археологическая находка» с учетом понятия «находка», используемого в Гражданском кодексе Российской Федерации.

The article discusses the issues of liability for transactions with archaeological objects. It is concluded that, in general, alienation of archaeological objects by individuals is permitted, provided that the objects have been included in the Museum Fund of the Russian Federation. At the same time, the question of the risks associated with the seizure of archaeological objects not included in the Museum Fund, provided by individuals for exhibitions in museums, remains open. The article also analyzes the correctness of using the category «archaeological find» taking into account the concept of «find» used in the Civil Code of the Russian Federation.

Urbanismo y movilidad en los valles del Éufrates y del Alto Khabur:
Authors: Constanze Lima Leandro Wladimir Gastón , Jaruf Pablo
Published: November 2024

Durante las últimas fases del Calcolítico Tardío surgieron múltiples asentamientos urbanos en los valles del Éufrates y del Alto Khabur. La fuerte presencia de cultura Uruk llevó a pensar que dichos centros eran resultado de la influencia de la Baja Mesopotamia, cuyos habitantes se habían trasladado al norte y/o impuesto su cultura. En los últimos años, sin embargo, se ha matizado el peso de unos sobre otros, proponiendo que las poblaciones locales habrían participado de manera voluntaria en dichas relaciones, así como también resaltando los indicios previos de urbanización local. Ahora bien, una vez finalizado el Calcolítico Tardío no sólo se verifica el repliegue de la cultura Uruk sino también del fenómeno urbano, indicando entonces que habría existido una estrecha relación entre ambos fenómenos. En este artículo, retomando un estudio dedicado a los sitios de Hacinebi Tepe, de Habuba Kabira Sur/Tel Qannas, y de Tell Brak, nos proponemos analizar estos cambios en los patrones de asentamiento y las formas de organización social durante y después de la expansión Uruk, para intentar comprender de qué manera urbanismo y movilidad se articularon en dichas dinámicas.
NATO enhanced forward presence in the Baltics: The nexus between the host and the framework nation
Authors: Palavenis Donatas
Published: November 2024

Following the events in Ukraine in 2014, North Atlantic Treaty Organization decided to strengthen its presence in three Baltic States (3B) by establishing an enhanced Forward Presence (eFP) in Estonia, led by the United Kingdom; Latvia, led by Canada; and Lithuania, led by Germany. This study examines the nexus between host nations (HNs) and the eFP framework nations (FNs) while referencing small state theories. The case study considered theoretical and analytical approaches, including classical realism, neorealism, constructivism, liberal theory, neoliberal theory, shelter theory, alliance theory, alliance shelter theory, theory of the free-riding concept of bandwagoning, strategic hedging, and the concept of neutrality to indicate small states’ behaviour and attitude towards bigger states. The more intensive nexus between FNs and HNs was evident in the 3B; however, it varied when analysing activities in military and economic fields. Empirical evidence related to the FN–HN states’ pair led to different theoretical considerations. The study’s outcome suggests that an individual bespoke approach towards the 3B’s is required. The alliance and alliance shelter theories should be regarded as the most appropriate, albeit not explicitly corresponding with first-hand findings.
AS REFLEXÕES SOBRE GÊNERO NO MBITO DA GESTÃO DE RECURSOS HÍDRICOS NO ESTADO DO CEARÁ

Published: November 2024

A compreensão dos desafios da igualdade de gênero na gestão dos recursos hídricos tem sido alvo de estudos que consideram levantamentos quantitativos acerca da representação feminina em diferentes colegiados deliberativos. Nesse contexto, o objetivo dessa pesquisa foi avaliar a representatividade feminina no Conselho Estadual de Recursos Hídricos (CONERH) e nos Comitês de Bacia Hidrográfica (CBH) do Estado do Ceará, além de produzir uma síntese reflexiva acerca de documentos orientadores e de planejamento relativos à gestão hídrica. Foi observado que em todos há predominância da representatividade masculina tanto no CONERH como nos CBH, onde a média feminina, considerando todas as bacias hidrográficas não ultrapassa os 30%. Quanto aos planos e documentos norteadores avaliados, dez dos doze CBH não apresentaram planejamentos específicos para a discussão e realização de atividades para a promoção da equidade das relações de água e gênero em processos de decisão. O presente trabalho contribuiu para um levantamento qualitativo e quantitativo que pode subsidiar o planejamento de tais ações para a equiparação da participação feminina na gestão dos recursos hídricos.

Cryogenic threshold voltage and on-current variability comparative analysis of same-fab 65 nm bulk and fully depleted silicon-on-insulator metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistors
Authors: Liu Zihao , Mizutani Tomoko , Takeuchi Kiyoshi , Saraya Takuya , Oka Hiroshi , Mori Takahiro , Kobayashi Masaharu , Hiramoto Toshiro
Published: November 2024

In this study, the current and threshold voltage variability for fully depleted silicon-on-insulator (FDSOI) and bulk field-effect transistors (FETs) that are prepared at the same fab using the same process are analyzed and compared at cryogenic temperature (CT) and RT. It is found that FDSOI shows more variability at CT, especially in the linear region. However, FDSOI still has smaller variability compared to bulk FETs, including a smaller drain-induced barrier lowering value. It is also found that the limited random dopant fluctuation (RDF) in FDSOI makes the impact from other variability sources more obvious, while the variability in bulk is more shadowed by RDF. The origins of such phenomena are discussed.

Published: November 2024

We propose a strain application process and structure for a chemisorption-based resonant mass sensor using graphene, aiming to develop a novel sensing platform with high sensitivity and selectivity. The results demonstrate the successful application of 0.26%–0.30% strain to suspended graphene through the thermal shrinkage of SU-8, resulting in a 25% improvement in resonance characteristics. Furthermore, we demonstrated the mass sensing of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spikes chemisorbed on the strain-applied graphene resonant mass sensor, achieving a mass sensitivity 149,000 times higher than that of silicon-based chemisorption mass sensors.

Published: November 2024

El dominio en el tablero internacional del Imperio Habsburgo (que desde 1581 hasta 1640 incluyó a España y Portugal) fomentó la expansión de la cultura tanto material como simbólica de la Península Ibérica en Europa y más específicamente en Inglaterra. Este artículo se propone abordar la naturaleza y el alcance de la presencia de esa cultura material en la obra de James Shirley, cuya deuda literaria española es una de las más conspicuas del período jacobeo-carolino y piedra de toque de la penetración de la literatura y cultura ibéricas en la Inglaterra del periodo moderno temprano. Además, dado que las relaciones socio-textuales relativas a la cultura material en los textos literarios entre la España e Inglaterra de esa época no han sido analizadas extensamente, excepto en el caso de Shakespeare (Duque 1981 y 1991), el análisis de la obra shirleiana presenta un punto de vista privilegiado desde el que obtener una visión general de la penetración de estos elementos materiales en la vida inglesa plasmada en las obras literarias de la época.
‘Forever young’: The eternal child archetype in the post-apocalyptic world of Gary Shteyngart’s Super Sad True Love Story (2010)
Authors: Brandt Ablanedo David
Published: November 2024

Using Jungian psychologist Marie-Louise von Franz’s The Problem of the Puer Aeternus (2000) as a theoretical framework, the present article discusses the characters and the apocalyptic world of Gary Shteyngart’s Super Sad True Love Story (2010) through the perspective of the archetype of the eternal child. The discussion focuses on the main characters’ quest for immortality, the visibility of the individual among the masses, and the dangers of a cold, detached Weltanschauung in contemporary society, additionally foregrounding interpretations of character behaviours, such as their infantile reactions to events and their relationships, which are presented in relation to the respective Jungian archetype.
Natural Imagery in Margaret Atwood’s Recent Poetry
Authors: Sánchez Calle Pilar
Published: November 2024

Margaret Atwood’s concern for nature, the earth and its species as well as for environmental topics has always populated her fiction and poetry. My aim in the present essay is to explore how Atwood represents nature in a selection of poems from her more recent poetry volumes (Morning in the Burned House, 1995; The Door, 2007; Dearly, 2020). Some poems in these collections attest to her concern for the environment, its degradation and poisoning. Others represent apocalyptic environmental relationships as well as themes of natural renewal as an effort to deal with human mortality and vulnerability. We also find poems where nature is presented as a commodity, as a repository of necessary knowledge or as a mythical resting place. Metamorphosis and change play essential roles both in human life and in the natural world, and figure prominently in the selected poems.
Determinants of Self-reported Morbidity among Victims of Occupational Hazard Exposure in Cement and Ceramic Production Companies in Kogi State, Nigeria
Authors: Eboh Alfred , Taiwo Patricia A. , Owumi Bernard E.
Published: November 2024

The burdens borne by employees who are victims of occupational health hazard (OHH) exposure in cement and ceramic factories, have aroused scholarly attention. Several studies have focused on health hazards with dearth of information on the actual determinants. This study therefore investigated the determinants of symptoms of self-reported morbidity distribution among victims of OHH exposure at the cement and ceramic companies in Kogi State. The study adopted a mixed methods approach involving 545 employees from Dangote Cement (DCP) PLC in Obajana and West African Ceramics Ltd (WACL) in Ajaokuta. Sample size was determined using Krejcie and Morgan (1970)’s formula. The Health Belief Model was employed as the explanatory framework. A semi-structured questionnaire was administered to the factory employees and complemented with 4 key informant interviews with medical personnel and 3 focus group discussion sessions with selected employees of the companies (DCP=2; WACL=1). Quantitative data were analysed using descriptive statistics and logistic regression, while qualitative data was content-analysed. The mean age of all the respondents was 34.70±9.18 years. Junior staff (80%) were more at WACL than DCP while senior staff dominated the cement company. Some of the common morbidity symptoms reported at DCP and WACL included body pains (52%), body weakness (52%), injuries and fractures (64%) and skin infections (64%). Patterns of morbidity symptoms were predicted by working in WACL (uOR: 9.503), being senior staff (aOR: 0.080), contract staff (aOR: 1.698), rotational shift (aOR: 0.208) and N69, 000–79,000 salary (aOR: 1.110). Both companies are plagued by occupational hazards, underscoring the need for stringent compliance with available protective equipment and regular medical evaluations to enable timely detection and effective treatment.
Nigeria’s Pharmaceutical Industry and the Challenges of Control by Regulatory Agencies
Authors: Aliyu Bashir , Ugwuoke C. U.
Published: November 2024

Despite the concerted efforts by successive governments in fighting the widespread fake, adulterated, counterfeit, and substandard pharmaceutical products, as well as drug use and misuse in Nigeria, illegal drug dealers and entrepreneurs are becoming more daring. They seem to suppress and obstruct government efforts to bring sanity into the healthcare delivery systems to perpetrate their illegal business. This paper examines the effectiveness of the concept of the Coordinated Wholesales Centres (CWC) in curtailing the menace of fake and counterfeiting, the mystery of drug use and misuse, and the challenges encountered alongside its implementation process. It also questions the inability of the government and its regulatory bodies to enforce the relocation of drug dealers to the new CWC flagship project in Kano state. The paper recommends that policymakers should recognize and prioritize drug distribution channels as a major critical issue in the healthcare delivery system, that the activities of the regulatory bodies should closely be monitored to avoid internal sabotage by the workers, strict enforcement of policies shall be adapted and to punish recalcitrant, a synergy between the regulators and drug entrepreneurs, and a coordination among the regulatory bodies to attain positive policy implementation.

Authors: Nnabuike O. Osadebe , Saidu Mubarak
Published: November 2024

The study explores the challenges faced by Gombe State federal workers from the monthly contributory pension scheme (CPS). The survey research design was adopted for the study. Simple random sampling technique was employed to select 393 respondents as a sample size using Taro Yamane statistical formula, out of 13,536 populations. Thus, data analysed through mean and chi-square square to test hypotheses. The study found that the lack of information about the monthly deductions from employees’ salaries, as well as the corruption and inefficiency of the organs responsible for regulating and controlling the administration of the scheme, pose the biggest challenges to federal government employees. Other significant issues include lack of sincerity and competence, corrupt management of the pension sector and the fear of financial mismanagement among those in charge of fund management, which casts doubt on the sustainability of Nigeria’s contributory pension scheme. Therefore, the study recommends that those in-charge of the pension fund should organised a monthly or quarterly workshop/seminars, sensitisation and awareness to the federal government workers in order to shed more light regarding the pension fund and the communication procedure should be open between the PFAs and the employees and timely payment.

In the data-driven era, graph data is widely distributed in multiple
fields, and its complex network relationships pose higher challenges to
data analysis models. Although graph neural networks (GNNs) perform well
in processing non-Euclidean spatial data, traditional methods are
usually limited to capturing local information through message passing
or relying on graph diffusion to obtain global information. This single
perspective makes it difficult to achieve a balance between global and
local information, especially in heterogeneous graphs, which can easily
lead to information loss or over-smoothing. To this end, we propose
Constrained Diffusion Graph Neural Networks (CDnet), which optimizes the
graph diffusion range by adding dual constraints: Constrained Diffusion
(CD) and Feature Information Flow Routing (FIFR). The CD module reduces
the diffusion depth by adaptively reducing the number of diffusion
steps, efficiently captures global information and reduces invalid
propagation. The FIFR mechanism dynamically regulates the direction and
strength of information flow between nodes to ensure precise control of
information transmission and retention of local features. Extensive
experimental results on public homogeneous and heterogeneous datasets
show that CDnet outperforms state-of-the-art methods, demonstrating its
excellent generalization and robustness in complex graph analysis. Code

Published: November 2024

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis peran industri asuransi dalam pembangunan nasional Indonesia, dengan fokus pada kontribusi investasi asuransi dalam Surat Berharga Negara (SBN) dan implikasinya terhadap pembiayaan infrastruktur negara. Penelitian ini juga mengevaluasi tantangan yang dihadapi industri asuransi, termasuk kasus gagal bayar yang melibatkan perusahaan asuransi besar seperti Jiwasraya, AJB Bumiputera 1912, dan Kresna Life, serta dampaknya terhadap kepercayaan masyarakat. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah deskriptif kualitatif, dengan analisis data sekunder dari laporan keuangan industri asuransi, data Otoritas Jasa Keuangan (OJK), serta literatur terkait. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa peran asuransi sebagai instrumen keuangan tidak hanya memberikan proteksi terhadap risiko individu tetapi juga berkontribusi signifikan terhadap pembangunan nasional melalui investasi dalam SBN, yang pada September 2023 mencapai Rp 898,17 triliun atau 46,8% dari total portofolio investasi PPDP. Namun, kasus gagal bayar yang terjadi telah menurunkan kepercayaan masyarakat terhadap produk asuransi, yang berpotensi mengurangi aliran dana investasi ke SBN. Kesimpulan penelitian ini menegaskan pentingnya peran pemerintah sebagai pembina dan pengawas industri asuransi dalam memberikan kepastian hukum, keamanan, dan kenyamanan bagi masyarakat. Implikasi dari penelitian ini adalah perlunya penguatan regulasi, pengawasan, dan transparansi untuk memitigasi risiko gagal bayar, meningkatkan kepercayaan masyarakat, serta memastikan keberlanjutan kontribusi industri asuransi terhadap pembangunan infrastruktur nasional. Optimalisasi sektor asuransi dapat menjadi salah satu kunci dalam mendukung pertumbuhan ekonomi dan pembangunan nasional yang berkelanjutan.

Authors: Fitrinaldi Fitrinaldi
Published: November 2024

Drying is a preservation method commonly used in the food industry to extend the shelf life of food by reducing the water content to a safe level. However, traditional drying methods, such as sun drying, are highly dependent on weather conditions and often produce inconsistent product quality. This research aims to optimize the salted fish drying process through the application of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the Teaching Factory environment, with a focus on monitoring and controlling temperature and humidity in real-time. The test results show that the temperature on sensor 1 reached 43.8°C, sensor 2 was 41.1°C, and sensor 3 was 49.6°C, with average humidity ranging from 35.6% to 57.8%. Drying time varies between 8-12 hours, depending on the type of biota being dried. These tests revealed that water vapor could be removed efficiently without being trapped, ensuring optimal drying. In addition, the application of IoT in the Teaching Factory provides educational value for students with relevant industry skills. This innovation offers a solution to traditional drying challenges, such as variations in product quality and the risk of microbial contamination. Therefore, the integration of IoT in the salted fish drying process has the potential to improve production standards and competitiveness in the global market.
