Authors: J. E. NAGAMANI , SAH USHA , H. A. RAVINDRANATH
Published: July 2021

Objective: The current study is an attempt to screen for the in vitro clot lysis and proteolytic activity of aqueous extract of Leucas aspera leaves.

Methods: Thrombolytic activity and protease activity of the crude enzyme obtained by ammonium sulfate precipitation and dialysis were assayed using blood clot and casein as substrates respectively. Native PAGE and gel documentation studies were performed to calculate the molecular weight of the enzyme.

Results: In the study, 40% salt fractioned crude enzyme sample exhibited significant thrombolytic and caseinolytic activity. Further dose-dependent increased activity was observed with the maximum lytic activity of 52.11±1.04 % at 1 mg/ml of the sample when compared to the reference drug streptokinase (71.39±0.32%). Also, 68.72±0.62 U/hr of caseinolytic activity was observed for 1 mg/ml of the sample fraction.

Conclusion: The study highlights and validates the efficacy of Leucas aspera leaves extract for thrombolytic and proteolytic actions. Enzyme with an approximate molecular weight, 19.89 KDa could be responsible for the significant lytic activity.

Conclusion: This study helps to discover disease-causing deleterious SNPs with different computational tools and gives information about potent SNPs.
On the Prevalence of Autoimmune Disease Markers in a Working Population and its Relationship to Wellness
Authors: Waheed Umber , Greenlaw Roger , Falsetti Sherry
Published: July 2021

Background: Autoimmune disease prevalence is rising at an increasing rate. However, little research currently exists on pre-screenings for autoimmunity and early disease management. We propose wellness visits should include an autoimmune disease panel screening for autoantibodies at preclinical and clinical levels.

Methods: A working population of individuals without formally diagnosed autoimmune disease underwent company-sponsored wellness visits. Wellness markers such as blood pressure and lipid measurements and an autoantibody panel were obtained during the visits. Participants were offered functional medicine information afterwards.

Results: Seventy-eight participants completed the visits. One or more wellness marker “abnormalities” were seen in 97% (76/78) of participants. Each wellness marker’s frequency of abnormality ranged from 13–82% of the participants. Preclinical or clinical autoantibody levels were seen in 53% (41/78) of the “healthy” working population with no previous autoimmune disease diagnoses. Preclinical markers were seen in 21% (16/78)of participants and clinical markers were seen in 32% (25/78) of participants. At least one wellness screening abnormality was seen in 98% (40/41) of participants with positive autoantibody findings. At least 50% of participants with a specific wellness abnormality tested at the higher “clinically” significant autoantibody levels.

Conclusion: Preliminary findings from this study suggest that the integration of an autoantibody panel in wellness visits may be beneficial. Individuals may also consider healthier living practices and proactive prevention of autoimmune disease pathogenesis through applications of functional medicine and therapeutic lifestyle change. Clinical marker findings in asymptomatic individuals raises a limitation in the usefulness of such a panel, and further research such as a placebo-controlled prospective cohort study with an intervention trial or serial testing of autoantibody prevalence is needed.
Individuumok és álindividuumok az interneten
Authors: Bokor Tamás
Published: July 2021

A cikk megvizsgálja a virtuális és reális világ határán mozgó individuumok viszonyainak elmúlt húszévnyi változását a digitális hálózati média fejlődésének tükrében. Bár kezdetben úgy tűnt, hogy a mobil információs társadalom technológiái a modernségben nem hoztak sok változást az individualitás kifejeződése szempontjából, az elmúlt húsz év árnyalta a képet. A virtualitás és realitás határán egyensúlyozó individuum már nem két világ polgára, hanem egyé, amely magába foglalja a konvergáló virtualitást és realitást. A tér- és időkereteket már nem uralják a „digitális nomádok”: a virtualitás és a realitás korábban szétválasztható színterei egyetlen világgá állnak össze. A digitális hálózati média humán ágensei mellett a hálózat technológiai gépi ágensei mindinkább egyenrangú partnerekké válnak. A digitális nomád metaforája ezért sem állja már meg a helyét: aki korábban egyedül vándorolt a feltáratlan, kiaknázatlan területeken, most számtalan társsal együtt – úgy más individuumokkal, mint gépi ágensekkel – halad, és „nomádsága”, szabadsága már csak látszólagos. A gépi ágensek sokasodása miatt ember és gép szimbiózisa a jövőben fokozódni látszik, új megbékélés igényét támasztva emberi
és gépi ágensek között.

Objetives. To perform a description of the etiology of hospitalized
children with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in Spain and analyze
predictors related to etiology. Hypothesis. The different etiological
groups of pediatric CAP are associated to different clinical,
radiographic and analytical data. Design. Observational, multi-center,
prospective study. Patient selection. Patients from 1 month to 17 years
admitted because of CAP from April 2012 to May 2019. Methods. An
extensive microbiological workup was done. Clinical, radiographic and
analytical parameters were analyzed in order to differentiate viral,
atypical bacteria (AB) and typical bacteria (TyB) pneumonia. Results.
495 children were enrolled. At least one likely causative pathogen was
identified in 262 (52.9%). Pathogenic viruses in 155/262 (59.2%), AB
in 84/262 (32.1%) and TyB in 40/262 (15.3%). Consolidation was found
in 89/138 (64.5%) CAP attributed to virus only, in 74/84 (88.1%) of
CAP attributed to AB and 40/40 (100%) of CAP attributed to TyB.
Para-pneumonic pleural effusion (PPE) was found in 112/495 (22.6%)
patients, 61/112 (54.5%) with a likely causative pathogen: virus 12/61
(19.7%), AB 23/61 (37.7%) and TyB 26/61 (42.6%). Viral etiology was
significantly more frequent in younger patients and those with lower
oxygen saturation, wheezing, no-consolidation and higher lymphocyte
counts. Patients with AB were significantly more likely to have more
days of fever at admission and a higher rate of use of antibiotics
before admission. Conclusions. Viruses and AB are the main cause of
pediatric CAP in Spain. Wheezing, younger age and no-consolidation on
the X-ray support viral etiology. Viruses and AB can also cause PPE. The
use of antibiotic in pediatric CAP can be restricted.
Changes in antiepileptic drug prescriptions over a decade in childbearing women in Lombardy Region, Italy
Authors: Clavenna Antonio , Campi Rita , Putignano Daria , Fortino Ida , Bonati Maurizio
Published: July 2021

Aim To describe the antiepileptic drug (AED) prescription pattern in
pregnant women and women of childbearing age in the 2010-2019 period in
the Lombardy region, Italy. Methods The Lombardy region administrative
healthcare databases (2010-2019) were analysed. AEDs were classified as
drugs belonging to the N03A subgroup of the Anatomical Therapeutic
Chemical Classification System. Women 15-49 years old were considered as
women of childbearing age, while exposure during pregnancy was estimated
taking into account the 12 months before delivery (International
Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification,
ICD-9-CM codes in the diagnosis record from 650 to 659). Results During
2019, 16,605 women of childbearing age (prevalence: 14.8‰) received at
least one AED prescription. Pregabalin was the most widely used
antiepileptic in women of childbearing age (22.3%), followed by
valproic acid (20.0%). The prevalence of AED prescription in pregnant
women was 3.8‰, and levetiracetam and lamotrigine (16.6%) were the most
commonly prescribed drugs. The prevalence of AED prescription did not
change from 2010 to 2019 in women of childbearing age or in pregnant
women. Valproic acid was one of the most used AEDs in pregnancy until
2016, after which its prescription declined from 19% to 14% of AED
users. Conclusions Despite the decrease in valproic acid prescription
over time, this drug is still among the most used AEDs, in particular in
women of childbearing age. Educational interventions for healthcare
professionals and women are needed in order to reduce the risk of
unplanned pregnancy.
LINKS BETWEEN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

Published: July 2021

The author's aim is to identify the links between two reporting systems: financial and nonfinancial.In this article, the connection between the financial statements and the management report will be shown. The work concerns the management report after the introduction of theobligation of non-financial reporting in the form of additional information in this report, or by means of a separate statement on non-financial information.The objective was achieved by means of literature studies in the field of accounting, as well as the analysis of legal acts, based on which the relations between the two reports should bedetermined. Deductive and inductive reasoning and the method of critical, comparative and descriptive analysis and synthesis were used to formulate conclusions. The existence of linksbetween the management report and the financial statement has been demonstrated. These links may pose a risk of repetition and non-compliance. It is desirable that these links should be madeclear to people responsible for drawing up both reports. Particular attention should be paid to the presentation of this information and steps should be taken in the accounting internal controlprocedures and internal audit, perhaps to confirm that the relevant information has been reconciled and to avoid unnecessary repetition.The results of the research show that there are so many connections, including non-financial information, that it is worthwhile to provide them and their verification as a conscious andorganized activity. This will build the image of the company in the eyes of the report readers.
Faciliteringens dramaturgi i affektive rum
Authors: Krøgholt Ida
Published: July 2021

Denne artikel undersøger facilitering som dramaturgisk kommunikation med fokus på de affektive og kropslige dele af kommunikationen.
Facilitering åbner som begreb for en spændvidde af teknikker og tilgange til processer indenfor organisationsledelse, pædagogik og kunstprocesser. I artiklen er begrebet specifikt rettet mod teaterpædagogik men har også generel didaktisk relevans. Gennem analyse af et konkret eksempel på en facilitators ledelse af en kropslig samarbejdsøvelse med en gruppe unge, spørger jeg, hvordan affektteori kan bidrage til at observere og analysere de fintfølende dele af faciliteringen, der ellers falder udenfor den sproglige registrering. Der introduceres to teoretiske perspektiver – vitalistisk affektteori samt kognitions- og spejlteori – gennem hvilke de affektive aspekter belyses som kollektive intensiteter og kropslige spejlinger. I forlængelse heraf udskilles tre greb til faciliteringens dramaturgi – det side-coachende, det spejlende og det kinæstetisk-empatiske – der fremhæver konkrete former for kommunikation med fokus på det affektive i det undersøgte felt for teaterpædagogisk facilitering.
Et temanummer om dramaturgi i didaktiske kontekster
Authors: Lindstøl Frinde , Knudsen Kristian Nødtvedt , Bakke Jannike Orhem
Published: July 2021

Intensjonen bak dette temanummeret i JASEd er å styrke dramaturgi som forskningsfelt koplet til klasserommet og andre didaktiske kontekster. I Norge, men også i Norden, har det de siste par tiårene vært en økende interesse for å anvende dramaturgiske perspektiver i blant annet klasserom. Didaktiske kontekster forstår vi som rom, møteplasser og situasjoner/hendelser der undervisning og læring oppstår, skapes og settes i spill. I dette temanummeret vil vi undersøke hvordan dramaturgiske praksiser, dramaturgisk teori, dramaturgisk metode og tilhørende analyser kan supplere og vitalisere undervisning og andre kontekster, som for eksempel både lærerutdanning og kunstfag.

Realidad laboral del egresado de la licenciatura en Canto de la Universidad Autónoma de Zacatecas
Authors: Caignet Lima Solanye
Published: July 2021

La licenciatura en Canto de la Unidad Académica de Artes de la Universidad Autónoma de Zacatecas (UAA-UAZ), con una duración de cuatro años en el nuevo plan de estudios, se estructuró con base en las necesidades formativas del estudiante. La UAA-UAZ ha trabajado durante años para hacerse pertinente como opción principal para la formación de estudiantes de canto. Diversos cantantes han egresado de esta licenciatura con el firme propósito de convertirse en hábiles y eficientes exponentes del Canto. Sin embargo, una vez titulado, el nuevo licenciado en Canto se ha encontrado con un panorama laboral limitado y complejo. En tal sentido, en esta investigación se comprobó el comportamiento del mercado laboral en el ámbito del canto en general. También se comprobó la vinculación que existe entre las materias del currículo de la licenciatura en Canto, así como la carencia de otras necesarias para alcanzar un mejor perfil de egreso. Los objetivos perseguidos fueron el diagnóstico y análisis general del plan de estudio actual y el perfil de egreso, aspectos que inciden en la continuidad hacia la inserción laboral. Se encontró que un interesante porcentaje de artistas que se dedican a las bellas artes en el país se autoemplean. De hecho, la información recabada con una encuesta demuestra inconsistencias con los resultados del currículo de la licenciatura en Canto, así como con las exigencias de un mercado laboral inestable. Asimismo, los profesionales del arte que están ocupados durante el año a nivel nacional representan un bajo porcentaje en la tabla de encuesta del observatorio laboral. Se concluye, por tanto, que la licenciatura en Canto presenta una desconexión con el mercado laboral, la cual es generada por políticas educativas y culturales que deben ser revisadas.

Published: July 2021

The ability to understand mathematics is a faculty crucial to be possessed by pre-service teachers who will enter into the education sphere. It is one of the professional competencies essential for teachers since satisfactory lessons’ delivery engenders more comprehensible instruction in teachers’ students. Qualitative research employs a descriptive approach relevant to the research purpose, describing mathematics pre-service teachers’ professional competency of understanding the concept toward probability observed based on mathematical abilities; advanced, intermediate, and basic mathematics ability. The subjects are three pre-service teachers having passed discrete mathematics course in a college in Madura. The criteria to select the subjects are the GPA (Grade-point Average) of the last semester and information from the lecturer.  It is because unlikely to administer the test due to online learning applied at the college. Findings indicated that the subject with advanced mathematics ability could meet individual concepts, relate concepts and connect concepts with the operations. The subject with intermediate mathematics ability could meet individual concepts, but could not relate to some concepts. However,  he could connect concepts with the operations. The subject with basic mathematics ability could not meet individual concepts, relate concepts, and connect concepts with the operations. In terms of the advancement indicator of understanding the concept, the subjects have not attained it since they have not apprehended concept definition well, particularly the probability concept, although the subject with advanced mathematics ability was procedurally prodigious.

Ideally, vocational high schools are able to produce graduates who can immediately enter the world of work. However, the reality is that there are still vocational high school graduate students who are still unemployed after graduating, this is because students do not prepare career plans beforehand. This type of research is quantitative with a correlational descriptive approach. The sample in this study amounted to 32 vocational students who were determined using purposive sampling. The instrument used was a parental attention questionnaire, a learning motivation questionnaire and a student career planning questionnaire. In addition, researchers also used a Likert scale model instrument. The analysis technique used is simple regression and multiple regression. The research results found that; 1) parental attention contributes significantly to student career planning, 2) learning motivation contributes significantly to student career planning, and 3) parental attention and learning motivation together contribute significantly to student career planning.

ASHABU AL-SABT DALAM AL-QUR'AN (Studi Komparasi Penafsiran Ibn Kathir dan Wahbah Zuhaili)
Authors: Ihwan Amali Jaelani Dan
Published: July 2021

As a guide to human life, the Qur'an has served many wise stories about the ancients so that we can make i'tibar in everyday life. One interesting story to study is the story of Ashab al-Sabt. The mufassir, both classical and contemporary mufassir, have their own interpretation in interpreting the story of Ashab al-Sabt contained in the Qur'an, even in interpreting the form of adzab in the story cendrung give rise to a polemic of prolonged interpretation. This research will describe the interpretation of Ibn Kathir and Wahbah al-Zuhaili on the story of Ashab al-Sabt and the similarities and differences between the interpretation of Ibn Kathir and Wahbah al-Zuhaili about Ashab al-Sabt. The approach used is qualitative approach with the type of literature research (library research). As for the results of this study, Ibn Kathir and Wahbah al-Zuhaili interpreted the story of Ashab al-Sabt as the story of the ancient people who lived on the outsized sea of Qazlum (red sea) of Ailah city who violated God's command not to catch fish on Saturday. Second, there is an equal interpretation between the two is that the form of God's curse on Ashab al-Sabt who committed violations in the form of physical curses that is the change of physical form into apes and the two mufassir agreed that in response to the agreement made, Ashab al-Sabt divided into three groups, namely: groups that commit violations, groups that prohibit violations and groups that are silent. The difference in interpretation between the two is that the interpretation of Wahbah al-Zuhaili is ahkam interpretation, this is seen when he interprets the story from the perspective of Fiqh al-Hayah wa al-Ahkam, that the story of Ashab al-Sabt part of the assertion of sadd dzara'i and the obligations of charity ma'ruf and nahi munkar.

Food security is the government's top priority in eradicating hunger. The government continues to make an innovation, so that food needs in Indonesia are fulfilled. One of them is increasing the rice harvest index to 5 times through the ratoon system. Currently, ratoon productivity is only 40-50% lower than its parent plant. Utilization of technology in the ratoon system is expected to increase plant productivity. This study aims to increase the productivity of the ratun by increasing the number of tillers which increase the growth of the ratoon. The experiment was arranged in completely randomized design (CRD). The factor tested were nitrogen dose (50 kg ZA / ha, 100 kg ZA / ha, 150 kg ZA / ha, 200 kg ZA / ha, and 250 kg ZA / ha) repeated 4 times. The parent rice plant which used in the ratoon system was Inpari-32 variety. Collecting data were consisted number of tillers, length of panicles, number of grains per panicle, number of pithy grains, number of empty grains, and leaf chlorophyll content. The result showed that nitrogen application 100, 150, 200, and 250 kg ZA.ha-1 has a significant effect on number of tillers compared to 50 kg ZA.ha-1, but it was not significant for the other observed variables. The optimum nitrogen dose to achieve the maximum number of tillers was 216.75 ZA.ha-1. Increasing the level of nitrogen disposed to increase plant growth and yield component of ratoon rice, although it was not significant difference.

Methodology of Ranking Higher Education Systems of Universitas 21 (U21) and Lessons for South East Asia Countries
Authors: Thi Quynh Lan Mai
Published: July 2021

The quality of higher education is only assessed through “experience”, that is, through participating in the learning process. As a result, universities increasingly have to provide enough information for prospective students to choose from. The rankings were born to meet this requirement of learners and universities. International university rankings look primarily at indicators that reflect the results of scientific and teaching achievement and often ignore activities aimed at developing local communities. U21's method of ranking the world higher education systems has covered these indicators in its methodology. The four modules of U21 include: Resources, Environment, Connectivity and Outputs. Out of all 4 U21 ranking modules, Environment is the module that South East Asia countries have the best rankings. In the rankings of modules, normalization by GDP significantly reduces the scores and rankings of countries with high GDP, but increases the rankings of countries with low GDP. U21 also observed the pattern of connection between higher education institutions and enterprises. For the ASEAN countries, the transfer of common knowledge is more important than linking with business in the form of share scientific publications. Most of the countries in the U21 ranking are rich and research-oriented. The author has analyzed the U21 ranking results of 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 of Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and drawn lessons learned for countries in South East Asia.

The Mentawai archipelago is situated to the west of mainland Sumatra and is part of the West Sumatra province. The Mentawai people are indigenous to this archipelago and are well known for their traditional healing practices performed by their Sikerei healers. Only a few studies on the traditional plant medicines of the Mentawai people have been published, which mostly suggest that Zingiberaceae is one of the most widely used families. This study examines the indigenous knowledge of Zingiberaceae by the Mentawai people living in Siberut. Field surveys were undertaken at four locations in the island where the Sikerei healers were interviewed directly to obtain information about medicinal treatments using plants from the Zingiberaceae family. Voucher specimens were collected, dried and deposited at the Herbarium of Andalas University (ANDA), Padang, West Sumatra. The study suggests that at least 32 Zingiberaceae species are used in the Mentawai’s traditional medicines. The floristic aspects, the plant part used, and the type of disease treated are discussed.
