Competência em informação, sobrecarga de informação e vulnerabilidade em informação em estudantes de cursos pré-vestibular públicos e gratuitos
Authors: Fazzioni Dilva Páscoa De Marco , Vitorino Elizete Vieira
Published: June 2022

Este trabalho tem como objetivo compreender a sobrecarga de informação em alunos de cursos pré-vestibular públicos, gratuitos e comunitários, identificando relações e princípios norteadores da competência em informação do público-alvo. Com relação à metodologia, a pesquisa teve abordagem qualitativa e ênfase na fenomenologia. A investigação foi realizada por meio de pesquisas bibliográfica e documental, além de entrevistas com 38 estudantes de quatro cursos pré-vestibulares, abordando seus sentimentos e experiências relacionados à competência em informação, sobrecarga de informação e vulnerabilidade em informação. Os resultados apontam que alguns estudantes apresentam percepções tácitas da competência em informação, alinhadas aos conceitos da literatura. Na maior parte, eles se sentem inseguros quanto a aspectos como a confiabilidade da informação, métodos de organização pessoal e técnicas de estudo mais eficientes. Mesmo reconhecendo a sobrecarga de informação e relatando os sintomas psicossomáticos, em maior número os estudantes não se consideram prejudicados pelo fenômeno. Eles também reportam situações em que se sentiram vulneráveis, em especial por causa de fatores como baixa autoestima e dificuldades de compreender conteúdos. Concluiu-se que os entrevistados reconhecem a importância da informação para suas vidas e para a sociedade. Mesmo sem conhecer os fundamentos da competência em informação, os entrevistados apresentam reflexões pertinentes sobre o tema.

Published: June 2022

Discute a adoção dos sistemas de classificação bibliográfica para fins de ordenação de documentos no contexto estadunidense da virada do século XIX para o XX e a configuração do número de chamada como modelo composto pela associação entre o número de coleção, o número de classe e o número do livro. Busca-se explicitar a historicidade do número de chamada e as críticas a ele direcionadas. O trabalho fundamenta-se em revisão de literatura sobre a temática, desenvolvendo-se com base em pesquisa de grupo e pesquisas individuais, iniciadas em 2012, e que, desde então, resultam em trabalhos acadêmicos, livro, trabalhos em evento e artigos. O texto principia pela discussão sobre os sentidos vinculados ao uso dos sistemas de classificação bibliográfica para a ordenação de documentos. Na sequência, discorre sobre a estrutura do número de chamada como modelo que operacionaliza arranjos em sistemas de localização relativa, mobilizando, em especial, a intensa produção de reflexões voltadas a soluções para a composição do número do livro. Por fim, revisita algumas críticas aos sistemas de classificação bibliográfica e em associação ao número de chamada. Como considerações finais, ressalta a atualidade da ordenação de documentos, sobretudo quando a experiência direta do público com as coleções é almejada, haja vista a função enunciativa dos arranjos espacializados, função essa que fomenta a exploração significativa e criativa das coleções.

The principle of "biological diversity through biological equity"
Authors: Tiras Kharlampy P.
Published: June 2022

The modern practice of biological research required the formation of a new ethics of biology, which became a synthesis of observation and experiment. The article considers the ethical aspects of modern biology from the point of view of criticism of the anthropocentric approach. A position has been put forward on the lifetime of a modern biological group as the main criterion for its place and role in the evolution of living things. The consequence of this is the need to form an attitude towards biodiversity as a one-time and equal coexistence of diverse groups of representatives of wildlife.
A conceptual connection is proposed between the new ethics of biology and the classical ethical construction the "golden rule" of ethics, and the ethics of naturalistic biology, which is inextricably linked with it, coming from the ethics of science of Goethe and Meyen.
The proposed ethical concept of biology includes several elements, called "principles" by the author, which together cover all aspects of the ethics of biological research.
These are the principles:

Biological diversity as the basis of biological "equality".
"Watch no touch" look, (but) do not touch the ethics of "virtual experiment".
"Ethical means accurate" adherence to ethically "pure" approaches to an object as a condition for obtaining accurate information about a living object.
Healing is an active merci and the foundation of solidarity. Discussion about the past and future of bioethics dedicated to the 75th anniversary of Pavel Dmitrievich Tishchenko
Authors: Tishchenko Pavel D. , Sedova Natalya N. , Petrov Kirill A.
Published: June 2022

Pavel Dmitrievich Tishchenko, one of the founders of Russian bioethics, turned 75 on January 10, 2022. Joining the numerous congratulations, journal Bioethics publishes the text of the discussion dedicated to this event. The discussion was initiated by the question of the history of Russian bioethics formation in the perspective of its simultaneous emergence in Moscow, Volgograd, St. Petersburg, Kazan. The participants exchanged opinions on the significance of I.T. Frolov's ideas for the formation of the Moscow School of Bioethics. The influence of the concept of "frontier" proposed by Tristram Engelhardt Jr. on the formation of distinctive features of Russian bioethics was revealed during the discussion. It is emphasized that at the early stages of its formation Russian bioethics was more concerned with the problems of clinical trials than with the moral dilemmas arising from medical practice. An important stage for self-understanding of bioethics was the events of the Afghan company, which exposed the imperfection of the healthcare system in the USSR. The discussion touches a critical examination of the traditional principles of bioethics. The conversation of the philosophical foundations of modern bioethics allowed to formulate two theoretical opinions. The firs assertion determines that philosophical theories delay with revolutionary changes in the field of medical and scientific practice. The second one determines the need for the formation of stable teacher-student relations sufficient for enculturation with the tradition of thinking. The participants noted the undoubted humanizing influence of these principles on clinical practice and scientific research. At the same time the risks associated with an attempt to transfer the principles that was established in the Western tradition into the practices of Russian medicine and science were identified. Speakers claimed the idea of harmonization the principles to the traditions of Russian philosophy and ethics. Thus, the medical art should be conceived as an active mercy, and many bioethical problems as social challenges that require solidarity. It was noted, that bioethics is transforming from type of value-based communication of specialists to a formalized procedure.
Studi Analisis Terhadap Bintang Rigel Sebagai Acuan Penentu Arah Kiblat Di Malam Hari
Authors: Hakim Samsul
Published: June 2022

Abstract:

In general the determination of Qibla direction using azimuth method of Qibla refers to the position or azimuthh of the sun. So also in the books of phlegm, no one discusses the use other than the sun to determine the direction of the Qibla. This research is a field research that is included in qualitative research. The primary data in this study is data obtained through observation and manual calculation results using the position or azimuthh of Rigel stars. The secondary data is the result of an interview on the experts of astronomers as well as the documentation of astronomical books, astronomy software to assist the author in collecting data. This study resulted in two findings. First, the use of Rigel stars as the direction of Qibla in the evening can be used as alternative direction ofQibla using Azimuthh method of Qibla. Secondly, the accuracy of the use of Rigel stars as the direction of Qibla at night is as accurate as the direction of Qibla using the sun.

Abstrak :

Pada umumnya penentuan arah kiblat menggunakan metode azimuth kiblat mengacu pada posisi atau azimuthh matahari. Begitu juga di dalam buku-buku ilmu falak, tidak ada yang membahas penggunaan selain dari Matahari untuk menentukan arah kiblat. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian lapangan (field research) yang termasuk ke dalam penelitian kualitatif. Data primer dalam penelitian ini adalah data yang diperoleh melalui observasi dan hasil perhitungan manual dengan menggunakan posisi atau azimuthh bintang Rigel. Adapun data sekundernya adalah hasil wawancara terhadap para pakar ilmu falak serta dokumentasi berupa buku-buku astronomi, software astronomi untuk membantu penulis dalam mengumpulkan data. Penelitian ini menghasilkan dua temuan. Pertama, penggunaan bintang Rigel sebagai penentuan arah kiblat di malam hari dapat dijadikan sebagai alternatif penentuan arah kiblat menggunakan metode azimuthh kiblat. Kedua, akurasi penggunaan bintang Rigel sebagai penentuan arah kiblat di malam hari sama akuratnya sebagaimana penentuanarah kiblat menggunakan Matahari.

Abstract:

This research is based on various polemics and actual differences discussed every year in the determination of the beginning of the Islamic month (Islamic calendar), such as the month of safar, rajab month, month of Zulhijjah, and especially the beginning of Ramadan and Shawwal. Determination of the beginning of the month and time of worship is a matter of great concern in Islam, especially in Indonesia, which is one of the countries with the big majority of Muslims in the world. Various problems that arise in determining the beginning of the Islamic month (Islamic calendar), especially Ramadan and Shawwal are about mathla 'which then emerged the terms' global mathla 'and regional matla'. In this case, Indonesia has a policy of using two methods, especially in determining the beginning of the month of Ramadan, namely Hisab and Rukyat, Hilal is one form of natural phenomenon that changes the instructions for humans in determining worship times based on Hijri. calendar, so the appearance of the new moon somewhere or what is commonly called mathla 'new moon is the main requirement in determining the beginning of the month. With the emergence of the polemic of differences of opinion, the Muslim community, especially in Indonesia, relied on the fatwa of the Indonesian Ulema Council in each determination based on the opinions of the four Imam of Madzhab through the hadith, asbabul wurud, and hads atsar about the determination of mathla 'hilal.

Abstrak:

Penelitian ini diangkat dari berbagai polemik dan perbedaan yang aktual di bicarakan pada tiap tahun dalam penentuan awal bulan hijriah (kalender Islam), seperti bulan safar, bulan rajab, bulan Zulhijjah, dan khususnya awal bulan Ramadhan dan Syawal. Penentuan awal bulan dan waktu Ibadah merupakan hal yang sangat diperhatikan dalam Islam khususnya di Indonesia yang merupakan salah satu negara dengan Mayoritas muslim terbesar di dunia. Berbagai problem yang muncul dalam penentuan awal bulan hijriah (kalender Islam) khususnya ramadhan dan syawal adalah tentang mathla’ yang kemudian muncul istilah mathla’ global dan matla’ regional. Dalam hal ini di Indonesia mempunyai kebijakan dengan menggunakan dua metode khususnya dalam penentuan awal bulan Ramadhan yaitu Hisab dan rukyat, Hilal merupakan salah satu bentuk dari perubahan gejala alam yang menjadi petunjuk bagi manusia dalam menentukan waktu ibadah yang pelaksanaanya berdasarkan penanggalan Hijriah, dengan begitu munculnya Hilal di suatu tempat atau biasa disebut mathla’ hilal merupakan syarat utama dalam penentuan awal bulan tersebut, Dengan munculnya polemik perbedaan pendapat tersebut mayarakat muslim khususnya di Indonesia bersandar pada fatwa Majelis Ulama Indonesia (MUI) dalam setiap penentuanya dengan diperkuat oleh pendapat empat Imam Madzhab melalui hadist,asbabul wurud, dan atsar hadits mengenai penentuann mathla’ hilal.
Komparasi Arah Kiblat
Authors: Utami Tri Pangestu , Awaludin Muhammad
Published: June 2022

The Songak ancient mosque and the Bayan ancient mosque are two historic ancient mosques on Lombok island. The two mosques are also witnesses to the history of the spread of Islam in Lombok, so the two mosques are still being maintained and preserved to this day. Besides being a place of worship, the mosques also serve as a place to celebrate Islamic holidays and the culture of the local community. Therefore, it is very important to check the Qibla direction of the two ancient mosques, because one of the conditions for a valid prayer is facing the Qibla. This study produces data that there is a deviation from the Qibla direction in the two historic ancient mosques. The Bayan ancient mosque is considered to have a smaller deviation than the Songak ancient mosque.

 

Masjid kuno Songak dan masjid kuno Bayan merupakan dua masjid kuno bersejarah di pulau lombok. Masjid tersebut juga merupakan saksi sejarah penyebaran islam di lombok, sehingga kedua masjid tersebut masih terus dipelihara dan dipertahanan hingga saat ini. Selain sebagai tempat ibadah, kedua masjid tersebut juga dijadikan sebagai tempat perayaan hari besar islam dan kebudayaan masyarakat setempat. Oleh karena itu, pengecekan arah kiblat kedua masjid kuno tersebut sangat penting untuk dilakukan, sebab salah satu syarat sah sholat adalah menghadap kiblat. Penelitian ini menghasilkan data bahwa adanya kemelencengan arah kiblat pada kedua masjid kuno bersejarah tersebut. Masjid kuno Bayan dianggap memiliki kemelencengan yang lebih kecil dibanding dengan masjid kuno Songak.

Published: June 2022

Polysaccharides such as carrageenan are potential materials that can be used as bioplastics. Modified starch is a material that can reduce the hydrophilic properties and increase the hydrophobic and mechanical properties of bioplastics. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the application of modified starch on carrageenan-based bioplastic spoons from seaweed Eucheuma cottonii on the biodegradability and water resistance, and to determine the best formulation of bioplastic spoons that could produce the best biodegradability and water resistance. The experimental method in this study used a completely randomized design. The treatment given was the concentration of modified starch (0; 2; 2.5; and 3 grams). The results showed that the addition of modified starch would slow down the rate of biodegradation and improve water resistance, but produced fluctuating values caused by various factors.

Anadara granosa are one of the benthic organisms that are frequently reported because contained heavy metals because of water pollution. This is because A. granosa is a feeder filter so that accumulates heavy metals in its body. Reduce the levels of heavy metals with activated charcoal from coconut shells in the absorbance process using the depuration method. It is re-optimized with the use of nano-active charcoal. The goal was to determine the effect of concentrations of nano-active charcoal from coconut shells on the heavy metal content of A. granosa. Stages of this reserch, namely charcoal activation, ultrasonication, SEM testing, blood shell depuration, and heavy metal testing. Based on the results of the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) Test it is known that the charcoal particles are sized 10-9 nm. The types of heavy metals found included hydrargyrum (Hg) 0.0009 mg/kg, cadmium (Cd) 0.62 mg/kg, and plumbum (Pb) 1.82 mg/kg. Heavy metals with lowest content is found in P5 (active charcoal concentration of 15% of the sample weight) of mercury (Hg) 0.0002 mg/kg; cadmium (Cd) 0.1 mg/kg; and lead (Pb) 0.373 mg/kg. This shows that the higher concentraion of activated charcoal given, the lower heavy metal content.

Current and future opportunities for liquid biopsy of circulating biomarkers to aid in early cancer detection
Authors: Gawel Susan H. , Jackson Laurel , Jeanblanc Nicolette , Davis Gerard J.
Published: June 2022

Early diagnosis of cancer can significantly improve treatment and survival outcomes. Imaging and tissue biopsy are the gold standard diagnostic approaches but are costly, invasive, and often unable to detect early-stage tumors. The past decade has marked an acceleration in the discovery and development of liquid biopsy tests for aiding in the detection of various types of tumor markers in non-tissue samples, such as blood. Liquid biopsy markers include circulating tumor cells, as well as tumor cell fragments, nucleic acids, and proteins. Liquid biopsy may be useful in screening patients considered to be at high risk of developing cancer, for refining diagnosis when combined with other test results, and for early detection of recurrence. Advances in big data analytics, informatics, and artificial intelligence will make it possible to combine patient history, clinical data, and liquid biopsy marker profiles to achieve more accurate and earlier diagnosis. In this review, we summarize the current use of liquid biopsy in cancer care, including the development of multi-analyte panels to improve diagnostic accuracy and detect several cancer types in a single assay. We highlight recent advances for potential future applications of liquid biopsy to aid in the diagnosis of early-stage lung cancer. We also discuss the opportunities and challenges of integrating liquid biopsy into current algorithms for cancer screening and diagnosis.

Authors: Shiha Gamal , Soliman Reham , Hassan Ayman A. , Mikhail Nabiel N.H.
Published: June 2022

Aim: Studies of clinical outcomes in chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients with pretreatment advanced liver fibrosis (F3) after sustained virologic response (SVR) are scarce, and most studies are of small cohorts and retrospective in nature. Our aim was to assess the clinical outcomes following direct acting antiviral (DAA) treatment among hepatitis C F3 patients after SVR. Methods: This study included 1517 chronic hepatitis C patients with F3 fibrosis receiving DAAs in the out-patient clinics at the Egyptian Liver Research Institute and Hospital (ELRIAH). We included patients 18 years or older with HCV who received DAAs, have F3 by transient elastography, and have no history of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Patients were followed up every six months after end of treatment using ultrasonography and AFP. Results: Significant improvement of fibrosis occurred with decreases in LSM, FIB-4, APRI, and FIB-6. When changes in LSM were categorized depending on delta LSM, 873 patients (57.5%) showed regression, 454 (29.9%) were stable, and 190 patients (12.5%) showed progression of fibrosis. Overall, 33 cases developed HCC during follow-up with incidence rate of 0.915/100 py (95%CI: 0.64-1.27). Incidence was high with progression of liver fibrosis (6.17/100 py) compared to patients with stable fibrosis (1.09/100 py) and regression of liver fibrosis (0.75/100 py). There were no significant differences as regards fibrosis indicators at baseline (LSM, FIB-4, APRI, and FIB-6) between those who developed HCC and those who did not. Conclusion: CHC Patients with F3 fibrosis showed a high rate of regression of fibrosis and decreased HCC incidence after achieving SVR following DAAs.

As a new literary form in China, Transmedia fictions are constantly impacting the status of traditional paper novels. Participation culture is an important feature of Transmedia fictions, and it plays an important role in transmedia creation and communication modes. As a representative of mass culture and grassroots culture, Transmedia fictions continuously increase their influence in people's spiritual and cultural life and impact the status of traditional elite culture through a very participatory creative process and communication process. Through the study of the participating culture in Chinese Transmedia fictions, we can have a deeper understanding of the characteristics of this literary form, which will promote the future development of world literature.
A Hierarchical Framework for Assessing Transmission Causality of Respiratory Viruses
Authors: Jefferson Tom , Heneghan Carl J. , Spencer Elizabeth , Pluddemann Annette , Onakpoya Igho , Brassey Jon , Evans David , Conly John
Published: June 2022

Systematic reviews of 591 primary studies of the modes of transmission for SARS-CoV-2 show significant methodological shortcomings and heterogeneity in the design, conduct, testing and reporting of SARS-CoV-2 transmission. While this is partly understandable at the outset of a pandemic, evidence rules of proof for assessing the transmission of this virus are needed for pre-sent and future pandemics of viral respiratory pathogens. We review the history of causality as-sessment related to microbial etiologies with a focus on respiratory viruses and suggest a hierar-chy of evidence to integrate clinical, epidemiologic, molecular and laboratory perspectives on transmission. The hierarchy, if applied to future studies, should narrow the uncertainty over the twin concepts of causality and transmission of human respiratory viruses. We attempt to address the translational gap between the current research evidence and the assessment of causality in the transmission of respiratory viruses with a focus on SARS-CoV-2. Experimentation, consistency and independent replication of research alongside our proposed framework provide a chain of evidence that can reduce the uncertainty over the transmission of respiratory viruses and increase the level of confidence in specific modes of transmission, informing the measures that should be undertaken to prevent transmission.
A Machine Learning Method to Assess Growth Patterns in Plants of the Family Lemnaceae
Authors: Romano Leone Ermes , Iovane Maurizio , Izzo Luigi Gennaro , Aronne Giovanna
Published: June 2022

Numerous new technologies have been implemented in image analysis methods that help researchers withdraw scientific conclusions from biological phenomena. Plants of the family Lemnaceae (duckweeds) are the smallest flowering plants in the world, and biometric measurements of single plants and their growth rate are highly challenging. Although the use of software for digital image analysis has changed the way scientists extract phenomenological data (also for studies on duckweeds), the procedure is often not wholly automated and sometimes relies on the intervention of a human operator. Such a constraint can limit the objectivity of the measurements and generally slows down the time required to produce scientific data. Here is the need to implement image analysis software with artificial intelligence that can substitute the human operator. In this paper, we present a new method to study the growth rates of the plants of the Lemnaceae family based on the application of machine learning procedures to digital image analysis. The method is compared to existing analogical and computer-operated procedures. Results showed that our method drastically reduces the time consumption of the human operator while retaining a high correlation in the growth rates measured with other procedures As expected, machine learning methods applied to digital image analysis can overtake the constraints of measuring growth rates of very small plants and might help duckweeds gain worldwide attention thanks to their great nutritional qualities and biological plasticity.

Thin films of BiFeO3 (BFO), VO2 and BFO/VO2 were grown on SrTiO3(100) and Al2O3(0001) monocrystalline substrates using the RF and DC sputtering techniques. The surface of the films was characterized by profilometry, AFM, and XPS. The heterostructures have roughnesses between 0.2 and 16 nm and a grain size between 20 nm and 67 nm. XPS measurements show a higher proportion of the V4+ and Bi3+ oxides. In the Fe region, a higher proportion of Fe3+ is shown in the films. The homogeneous ordering, low roughnesses, and the oxidation states on the obtained surface show a good coupling in these films. The I-V curves show ohmic behavior at room temperature and change with increasing temperature. The effect of coupling these materials in a thin film shows the appearance of hysteresis cycles I-V and R-T, typical of materials with high potential in applications such as resistive memories and solar cells.
Calculating the Segmented Helix Formed by Repetitions of Identical Subunits thereby Generating a Zoo of Platonic Helices
Authors: Read Robert Lee
Published: June 2022

Eric Lord has observed: “In nature, helical structures arise when identical structural subunits combine sequentially, the orientational and translational relation between each unit and its predecessor remaining constant.” This paper proves Lord’s Observation. Constant-time algorithms are given for the segmented helix generated from the intrinsic properties of a stacked object and its conjoining rule. Standard results from screw theory and previous work are combined with corollaries of Lord’s observation to allow calculations of segmented helices from either transformation matrices or four known consecutive points. The construction of these from the intrinsic properties of the rule for conjoining repeated subunits of arbitrary shape is provided, allowing the complete parameters describing the unique segmented helix generated by arbitrary stackings to be easily calculated. Free-libre open-source interactive software and a website is provided which performs this computation for arbitrary prisms along with interactive 3D visualization . We prove that any subunit can produce a toroid-like helix or a maximally-extended helix, forming a continuous spectrum based on joint-face normal twist. This software, website and paper, taken together, compute, render, and catalog an exhaustive “zoo” of 28 uniquely-shaped platonic helices, such as the Boerdijk-Coxeter tetrahelix and various species of helices formed from dodecahedra.

Published: June 2022

Imitation Learning is a discipline of Machine Learning primarily concerned with replicating observed behavior of agents known to perform well on a given task, collected in demonstration data sets. In this paper, we set out to introduce a pipeline for collecting demonstrations and training models that can produce motion plans for industrial robots. Object throwing is defined as the motivating use case. Multiple input data modalities are surveyed, and motion capture is selected as the most practicable. Two model architectures operating autoregressively are examined -- feedforward and recurrent neural networks. Trained models execute throws on a real robot successfully, and a battery of quantitative evaluation metrics is proposed, including extrapolated throw accuracy estimates. Recurrent neural networks outperform feedforward ones in most respects, with the best models having an assessed mean throw error on the order of 0.1...0.2 m at distances of 1.5...2.0 m. The data collection, pre-processing, and model training aspects of our proposed approach show promise, but further work is required in developing Cartesian motion planning tools before it is suitable for application in production.

The use of biological fertilizers on maize is one way to increase crop productivity which refers to sustainable agriculture. This study aims to determine the effect of biological fertilizers on the growth and yield of hybrid maize. The research was conducted from May to September 2019 at the Jumantono Experimental Garden in Sukosari village, Jumantono, Karanganyar. The method used was a factorial Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with one factor, namely the dose of biological fertilizer consisting of 4 levels, 0, 12, 20, and 28 L.ha-1), Liquid biological fertilizers used are biological fertilizers containing Azospirillum sp., Azotobacter sp., and Bacillus sp. The results showed that the 12 L.ha-1 dose of biofertilizer significantly affected plant height, stem diameter, and leaf area index compared to the control (0 L.ha-1). Biofertilizer was able to increase plant height, stem diameter, and leaf area index by 9.3, 13, and 19%, respectively. The optimum dose of biofertilizer on acid soils was 12 L.ha-1 with a seed yield of 3.5 tons.ha-1 or an increase of 23.02% compared to control. This study concludes that the dose of 12 L.ha-1 can be used as a recommendation to farmers for hybrid maize cultivation on acid land.
Kombinasi BAP dan NAA untuk Media Perbanyakan Nanas Varietas Smooth Cayenne, Toboali in Vitro
Authors: Dahniar Nia , Elvavina Pepi
Published: June 2022

Toboali pineapple variety is a smooth cayenne variety because it contains high antioxidants in the form of vitamins A and C. In addition, it is a source of citric and malic acids, substances that can be used to enhance the taste of the fruit. Pineapple is a plant that is propagated with vegetative organs such as suckers, slips, and crowns. However, conventional propagation has a low propagation rate. Tissue culture is an in vitro technique used in the rapid propagation of plants and in large quantities to meet the needs of cultivation and research. The selection of regeneration media is very influential on the development of plants in tissue culture. This study aimed to obtain the optimal media combination with BAP and NAA in the regeneration of Smooth Cayenne pineapple (Toboali) in vitro for mass propagation of seedlings and genetic engineering research. This study used 6 levels of BAP, namely 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 mg.L-1 and 4 levels of NAA, namely 0, 1, 2, 3 mg.L-1. The treatment used was a combination of BAP and NAA as many as 24 treatments with 3 replications. The best pineapple regeneration medium for mass plant propagation in this study was BAP 3 mg.L-1 without NAA media which produced the highest shoots of 17.33 shoots per explant at 12 week after planting. The best pineapple regeneration medium for genetic engineering research was a combination BAP 3 mg.L-1 and NAA 2 mg.L-1 media which produced 18.33 shoots per explant from embryogenic callus.

Breeding programs need genotypic variation to make a selection and create a promising variety. Hybridization in plants produces genetic variations in the offspring to select Robusta coffee as superior planting material. The maternal-effect and combining ability help determine the next breeding strategy. This study aimed to determine the maternal effect and the combining ability on the morphological characters of branches and leaves of Robusta coffee diallel crosses. The study involved six groups of F1 offspring and their reciprocals from three parents, namely clones BP961, Q121, and BP409, which were planted singly side in the Kaliwining Experimental Garden, Jember, East Java. The estimation of female parental effect was analyzed using a t-test, and combining ability was analyzed using diallel analysis method III. The analysis results showed that the female parental effect occurred on the character of the internode length in all cross combinations and did not occur on stipule length, petiole length, leaf length, and leaf width. The parent of the cross that can be the best combiner was parent BP961 for the petiole length and leaf length, parent Q121 for stipule length and internode length, and parent BP409 for leaf width character.

Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteri (PGPR) that sourced form bamboo roots applied to Arabica coffee seeds to find out the effect of PGPR from the roots of yellow bamboo and green bamboo through maseration method with different types of doses on the growth of Arabica coffee seeds. The experiment used a Randomized Block Design as PGPR concentration as the first factor that consist of four (4) levels, that is P0 (control), P1 (PGPR 10 ml L-1 of water), P2 (PGPR 20 ml L-1 of water), and P3 (PGPR 30 ml L-1 of water). The second factor is the type of bamboo roots, that is B1 (yellow bamboo) dan B2 (green bamboo). The result showed that the application of PGPR with a concentration of 30 ml L-1 of water gave the best effect on the growth of arabica coffee seedlings. Otherwise, the type of bamboo roots as PGPR sourses did not have a different effect on growth of coffee seedlings, but given better results on PGPR that made from yellow bamboo roots compare to the green one.
The importance of physiological data variability in wearable devices for digital health applications

Published: June 2022

This paper aims at characterizing the variability of physiological data collected through a wearable device (Empatica E4), given that both intra- and inter-subject variability play a pivotal role in digital health applications, where Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques have become popular. Inter-beat intervals (IBIs), ElectroDermal Activity (EDA) and Skin Temperature (SKT) signals have been considered and variability has been evaluated in terms of general statistics (mean and standard deviation) and coefficient of variation. Results show that both intra- and inter-subject variability values are significant, especially when considering those parameters describing how the signals vary over time. Moreover, EDA seems to be the signal characterized by the highest variability, followed by IBIs, contrary to SKT that results more stable.
This variability could affect AI algorithms in classifying signals according to particular discriminants (e.g. emotions, daily activities, etc.), taking into account the dual role of variability: hindering a net distinction between classes, but also making algorithms more robust for deep learning purposes thanks to the consideration of a wide test population. Indeed, it is worthy to note that variability plays a fundamental role in the whole measurement chain, characterizing data reliability and impacting on the final results accuracy and consequently on decision-making processes.
