The Representation of Palestinian-Israeli Conflict in Online News Articles: A Critical Discourse Analysis
Authors: Heni Adnania Nugra , Chandra Oktiva Herry
Published: June 2022

This study aims to analyse how Palestinian-Israeli conflicts are reported by two different news media, in this case Fox News (American) and Detik.Com (Indonesian). The data in this study were words and sentences which represent how Palestinian-Israeli conflict is reported by the two media. The data were taken from 4 news articles of Fox News and Detik.com which were reported from May 15 to May 31, 2021. The data were collected by using participant non-observation method with note-taking techniques. Then, the data were analyzed based on Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) theory proposed by Fairclough (1995). The results of the research indicate that there are differences in the representation of Palestinian and Israeli conflicts in the two media. In Fox News articles, Palestine, especially Hamas, is represented as a terrorist and there is an element of the American government's alignment with Israel. Meanwhile, in Detik.com articles, Israel is represented as the perpetrator of the attack while Palestine is represented as the victim.
Trends in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in the Gulf Cooperation Council countries: antibiotic resistance, virulence factors and emerging strains
Authors: Al-Saleh Abdullah , Shahid Mohammad , Farid Eman , Bindayna Khalid
Published: June 2022

Background: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a ubiquitous pathogen that is increasing in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. It is implicated in a wide range of infections, from superficial skin infections to lifethreatening syndromes. MRSA has moved beyond healthcare facilities, affecting individuals in the community without substantial risk factors. Aims: To review the prevalence and molecular characterization of MRSA in GCC countries during 2011–2021. Methods: We comprehensively searched PubMed using the following keywords: MRSA, Staphylococcus aureus, GCC, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Oman, Qatar, UAE, prevalence, and molecular characterization for articles published after 2011. Results: Thirty-nine of 111 articles examined, fulfilled the purpose of this review. Most studies were in Kuwait (44%), Saudi Arabia (28%) and United Arab Emirates (10%). Studies from other GCC countries were sporadic. Several studies demonstrated a clear emergence in antibiotic resistance especially against fusidic acid, ciprofloxacin and clindamycin. Regional prevalence of MRSA is reported as 25–35%, with clear dominance of community-acquired (CA)-MRSA. Panton– Valentine leucocidin (PVL)-producing strains accounted for 35–45%, with clear association with CA-MRSA emergence, but there were some sporadic reports of incorporation of PVL in healthcare-associated (HA)-MRSA. The reported dominant strains included EUST80, USA1100 and WA-MRSA-51. Novel strains are more likely to produce PVL and show fusidic acid resistance. Conclusion: There is a need for national and regional MRSA surveillance programmes, especially with the emergence of strains that require no underlying risk factors to cause illness, as well as the propagation of chimeric resistance elements in both HA-MRSA and CA-MRSA.
Analysis of Crypto-Ransomware Using Network Traffic
Authors: Owolafe Otasowie , F. Thompson Aderonke
Published: June 2022

Ransomware is a form of malware attack that makes use of encryption to make information inaccessible for the motive of gathering a specified amount of payment. Many victims of this attack who couldn’t recover their information from backups have been compelled to decide between losing the information or paying the sum requested by the attacker. This research shows some of the various samples of ransomware, the phases of attack, and the chance of recognizing ransomware by the network traffic patterns it generates. Traffic generated from the infected system was considered. Experimental results from the ransomware detection show that some certain ransomware is very noisy and generates noticeable traffic patterns. In light of traffic information gathered from ransomware, conceivable discovery thoughts could be investigated. The result of the analysis shows that some ransomware generates traffic that is different from normal network traffic. Also, the infection of the file server system shows that the length and time vary but after infection the time for the different samples of ransomware to carry out its encryption is constant.
Forensic Dental Age Estimation of North Indian Children Using Three Radiological Scoring Methods
Authors: Sankhyan Deeksha , S. Sehrawat Jagmahender , Talwar Manjit
Published: June 2022

Although believed to be reliable in children, dental age estimations have reportedly shown variations in their accuracy levels, indicating regional differences. The present paper aims to study the error threshold of the Nolla, Demirjian and Willems methods for age estimation of North Indian children.
Digital orthopantomograms of 168 children aged 3-15 years were analyzed for the three methods. Demirjian dental age was found to be closest to the mean chronological age, as indicated by the p-value of paired t-test. The error range for the Willems and Demirijian methods was ±5 years with 87.5% of cases showing error within the range of ±2 years, and it was ±6 years with 84.5% of cases showing error within ±2 years using the Nolla method. The mean absolute error for the Nolla, Demirjian and Willems methods was 1.09, 1.10 and 0.97 years, respectively.
The Willems method was better suited for dental age estimation of the studied population, though none of the methods precisely estimated the age of the participants. Wide variations in age estimates of varied population groups may be due to differences in statistical methods or genetic factors. Thus, comparison of the methods for different populations by the same researcher is suggested to reduce certain biasness (statistical methodology) in the study.
Shock-Resistance Responses of Frigate Equipments by Underwater Explosion
Authors: Kim Hyunwoo , Choung Joonmo
Published: June 2022

Three-dimensional finite element analysis (3D-FEA) models have been used to evaluate the shock-resistance responses of various equipments, including armaments mounted on a warship caused by underwater explosion (UNDEX). This paper aims to check the possibility of using one-dimensional (1D) FEA models for the shock-resistance responses. A frigate was chosen for the evaluation of the shock-resistance responses by the UNDEX. The frigate was divided into the thirteen discrete segments along the length of the ship. The 1D Timoshenko beam elements were used to model the frigate. The explosive charge mass and the stand-off distance were determined based on the ship length and the keel shock factor (KSF), respectively. The UNDEX pressure fields were generated using the Geers-Hunter doubly asymptotic model. The pseudo-velocity shock response spectrum (PVSS) for the 1D-FEA model (1D-PVSS) was calculated using the acceleration history at a concerned equipment position where the digital recursive filtering algorithm was used. The 1D-PVSS was compared with the 3D-PVSS that was taken from a reference, and a relatively good agreement was found. In addition, the 1D-PVSS was compared with the design criteria specified by the German Federal Armed forces, which is called the BV043. The 1D-PVSS was proven to be relatively reasonable, reducing the computing cost dramatically.

Authors: Candırı Busra , Ozaltın Gulfem Ezgi , Karaoba Dilan Demirtas , Talu Burcu
Published: June 2022

Background/Aim: There are conflicting results regarding the effect of motor and functional independence levels of disabled children on the burden of care. In addition, this burden, as well as musculoskeletal problems of pediatric caregivers, has not been examined in detail. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of motor and functional levels of the disabled child.

Methods: The study was planned as a single-blind, multicenter, cross-sectional study. Children between ages 1-12 with physical disabilities from various problems, and 65 caregivers over the age of 18 who cared for them for at least 6 months, were included. Caregivers were divided into two groups, as per the BAKAS Caregiver Impact Scale score as high care burden (n = 33) or low care burden (n = 32). The motor level of the disabled child was determined by the Gross Motor Function Classification System, and the functional level of the Pediatric Functional Independence Measurement. The Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire was used to evaluate musculoskeletal problems in caregivers.

Results: There was no significant difference between the Gross Motor Function Classification System levels of children in groups (P > 0.05). The Pediatric Functional Independence Measurement scores of children in the high care burden group were significantly lower than those in the low care burden group (P < 0.05). According to a comparison of pain in parts of the body for 12 months, using the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire, the percentage of pain in the neck, shoulder, back, elbow, hand, hip, and foot regions of caregivers was significantly higher in the group with a high care burden (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference between percent of low back and knee pain in the last 12 months (P > 0.05). A weak positive correlation was found between the BAKAS Caregiver Impact scores and the Pediatric Functional Independence Measurement of children with disabilities (r = 0.26; P = 0.03).

Conclusion: The lower functional level of the disabled child may cause an increase in caregiver burden of both the caregivers and musculoskeletal disorders.
Intraoral route for excising a large dermoid cyst of the floor of mouth: A discussion
Authors: Karmakar Shilpi , Mishra Brijesh
Published: June 2022

Surgical excision is an effective treatment for a dermoid cyst (DC) of the floor of the mouth (FOM). A dichotomy of opinions exist regarding the appropriate approach to surgical excision. In this study, we discuss our experience with excising a large DC via an intraoral route. An 18-year-old female presented with swelling of the submental region for one year. Under general anesthesia, an incision was conducted in the mucosa of FOM. By removing some contents, the cyst was delivered in toto. While some studies have stressed that the location of origin and size of the DC influence the route of excision, other authors have pointed out that by the time both median genioglossal and geniohyoid cysts become large enough to produce symptoms, both the muscles are splayed out and thus, the cysts are more amenable to excision by intraoral approach. This case highlights a dichotomy of opinion regarding the existing literature and to educate the clinicians about the benefits of the intraoral route of excision.

Authors: Dušek Radim , Sagapova Nikola
Published: June 2022

The paper focuses on the social network Instagram and its use by Czech university students during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns with restricted travel and services in comparison to typical Instagram activity in the pre-pandemic period. As Instagram specializes in visuals, it is perceived as an attractive online tool for promoting a wide range of products and services, including hospitality services and tourism destinations. The research aimed to determine which aspects of the use of this social network were affected by the pandemic lockdown period in 2020 among the young generation of active Instagram users. The analysis of data collected from a survey of 1138 respondents, for example, showed that students often started to follow new topics - especially in the areas of politics, health, personal development, sports, or hospitality services - in the context of the pandemic and its associated restrictions. At the same time, they started to spend more time on Instagram daily, typically 1-3 hours longer than they did in the pre-pandemic period. The analysis findings suggest that this social network should be seen as an increasingly important tool for effective online communication with the younger generation with tertiary education.

Authors: Kan TangChung
Published: June 2022

School travel plan (STP) is a significant tourism market for travel agencies; this study explores how travel agencies with customer orientation ability, product advantages, and high-quality service performance affect customer perceived value and the strategic adaptation of travel agencies from a resource-based view by moderating the effect of inter-functional coordination. Proportionate stratified sampling was used to select teachers and administrators from junior and high schools who participated in graduation trip selection for three years from Taiwan, and 183 samples were collected for analysis; likewise, PLS-SEM was adopted to verify the measurements and test hypotheses in the research. The scientific results indicate that travel agencies with customer orientation, product advantages, and high service performance positively impact customer perceived value. Inter-functional coordination has a moderating effect on customer perceived value and travel agency strategic adaptation. Travel agencies have customer-oriented characteristics that can clearly understand customers’ needs and prioritize them. Constantly reviewing customers’ needs and enhancing their perceived value can lead to increased sales volume in STP market. Effective communication and coordination are the critical effects of cooperation between travel agencies and other tourism industries, and travel agencies should quickly respond to schools and provide tourism products that meet STPs’ needs in Taiwan.

Authors: Arora Manish , Kumar Gupta Peeyush
Published: June 2022

Environmental concern is a cognizable topic in current days; almost every industry has initiated to put positive effort into dealing with the negative impact of the production and consumption. Digitalization is being practiced as a better outcome, but it also significantly affects the environment. CO2e has been identified as a pollutant through digital procedures caused by digital carbon emission. Almost half of the population is online, so it is becoming increasingly common to broadcast advertisements for better communication, which is one of the most contributing practices to carbon emissions. The maximum data transmission frequency is a driving key for the digital carbon footprint. The other significant key drivers are size, dimension, resolution, and color application in the graphics, which are the essential elements of graphic design. Therefore, it is a natural question what the role of graphic design in can be minimizing carbon emissions and what measures a graphic designer can take as a responsibility. After recording the in-depth opinions of designers and students, an attempt was made to outline the influential factors for the responsibilities of graphic designers to reduce the digital carbon footprint to elicit an answer to the above question.

Published: June 2022

Twitter is one of the popular microblogs that allow users to write posts. Retweeting is one of the mechanisms for the diffusion of information on Twitter. One way to understand the spread of information is to learn about retweet predictions. This study focuses on predicting retweets using Evolutionary Undersampling Boosting (EUSBoost) based on user, content, and time-based features. We also consider the vector of text as a predictive feature. Models with EUSBoost are able to outperform models using the AdaBoost method. The evaluation results show that the best model can achieve an AUC performance score of 77.21% and a GM score of 77.18%. While the Adaboost-based models achieved AUC scores ranging from 68% to 69% and GM scores ranging from 62% to 63%. In addition, we found that there was no significant difference between using numeric features only and combining numeric and text features.

Published: June 2022

The COVID-19 that has occurred has changed all human routines. COVID-19 has also prompted countries to issue work from home (WFH) policies. With this policy, the line between office work and homework is invisible. This condition triggers conflict, especially between husband and wife working, namely between work and family. However, good interaction between family members can be a mediator for working couples. In this regard, the study aims to analyze family interactions and the effect of work-family conflict on the quality of marriage for husband and wife working families during the COVID-19 pandemic. The design of this research is a cross-sectional study and was carried out in the city of Bogor in March 2021. Research respondents are wives who work in the formal sector and have school-age children, and the number is 65 families. The method in this study was self-administered, and an online questionnaire was used. Analysis of the influence of family characteristics, work-family conflict, and family interaction on marriage quality used regression test. As a result, during the COVID-19 pandemic, marriage quality was in the high category, with work-family conflict in the low category and family interactions were in the moderate category. Based on the regression test results, it is known that the quality of marriage is positively and significantly influenced by the length of the marriage and negatively significantly by work-family conflict. The research implication is that work-family conflicts can be overcome with good interactions between family members during the pandemic.

Research on the benefits of Bacillus sp. in aquaculture has been done a lot. Currently, the aquaculture industry, especially shrimp farming, is facing AHPND disease, which is known to be caused by Vibrio parahaemolyticus. This study aims to see the effect of Bacillus sp. against virulence of V. parahaemolyticus in vitro using caseinase production as an indicator and survival of Artemia franciscana cultured axenically when challenged with V. parahaemolyticus. In in vitro tests, cultures of V. parahaemolyticus were grown with and without the addition of Bacillus sp. on Luria Bertani (LB) liquid media, and then the caseinase test was carried out using skim milk (SM) agar as a growth medium. In the challenge test, 10 axenic cultured Artemia sp. were distributed in falcon tubes containing 10 ml of sterile seawater. Challenge test treatments consisted of treatment A as control of Artemia culture without the addition of bacteria, treatment B Artemia culture adding by 106 CFU/ml V. parahaemolyticus, treatment C Artemia culture with the addition of 106 CFU/ml Bacillus sp., and treatment D Artemia culture with the addition of 106 CFU/ml V. parahaemolyticus and 106 CFU/ml Bacillus sp. All treatments were done in triplicates. The results showed that the addition of Bacillus sp. was able to reduce the caseinase production of V. parahemolyticus up to 29% indicated by the decrease  of the clearing zone diameter formed on SM agar. Furthermore, the addition of Bacillus sp. in treatment D was able to significantly increasing (P<0.05) of Artemia's survival when challenged with V. parahamolyticus. This indicates that Bacillus sp. has a potential as a probiotic candidate to prevent disease caused by V. parahaemolyticus.

Authors: Silva Bruno , Garcia Pedro
Published: June 2022

O treino por simulação tem vindo a ser implementado no ensino das Ciências da Saúde, em resposta a limitações da prática clínica. Através do treino e ensino por simulação é possível criar um ambiente de aprendizagem seguro, onde as condições do modelo da prática deliberada podem ser implementadas. Porém, existem vários desafios associados à emergência destes recursos pedagógicos que necessitam de resposta, como a definição das melhores estratégias para sua integração curricular, a otimização da gestão de recursos e tempo de treino e métodos para avaliação destas novas técnicas.As curvas de aprendizagem são representações da relação entre o treino e o nível de desempenho que permitem a inspeção longitudinal do processo de aprendizagem.Este artigo pretende rever o conceito de curvas de aprendizagem e descrever potenciais benefícios da sua utilização no ensino e treino dos profissionais de saúde e na simulação biomédica.
Hematoma Retroperitoneal Espontâneo: A Experiência de um Centro
Authors: Beirão Bárbara , Barreira Ana Isabel , Guimarães Fernando
Published: June 2022

INTRODUÇÃO: O hematoma retroperitoneal espontâneo (HRE) é uma entidade rara e potencialmente fatal, classicamente descrita como uma complicação da terapêutica anticoagulante. Pode constituir um desafio diagnóstico, dada a heterogeneidade das manifestações clínicas. O objetivo deste estudo é caracterizar uma população de doentes com HRE e identificar fatores preditores de mortalidade.MÉTODOS: Estudo retrospetivo incluindo todos os doentes admitidos num hospital distrital num período de 10 anos (2010-2019) com diagnóstico de HRE. Foram excluídos doentes com história de traumatismo, procedimentos invasivos ou cirurgias nos 14 dias anteriores.RESULTADOS: Foram incluídos 11 doentes; 63,6% eram homens. A idade mediana foi 81 anos. Nove doentes estavam hipocoagulados: 5 com antagonistas da vitamina K, 4 com enoxaparina. O HRE foi o motivo primário de admissão em 45,5% dos casos. Nos restantes, constituiu uma intercorrência de um internamento por outra causa. A apresentaçãoclínica mais comum foi dor abdominal (45,5%), seguida de sintomas de baixo débito (36,4%). Três doentes apresentavam um INR supraterapêutico. Todos os doentes foram tratados de forma conservadora. A mortalidade global aos 30 dias foi 36,4%; a mortalidade intra-hospitalar foi 54,5%. O HRE foi considerado a causa direta da morte em apenas 18,2%. O único fator que se associou a maior mortalidade foi o agravamento da função renal (p=0,029).CONCLUSÃO: O HRE ocorre sobretudo em doentes idosos e hipocoagulados. Associa-se a elevada mortalidade, mas tipicamente não é a causa direta da morte. É difícil identificar fatores preditores de mortalidade, parecendo, contudo, que o agravamento da função renal se associa a maior risco.
Consideraciones sobre las cartas náuticas y los portulanos. Conexiones interdisciplinares
Authors: Patriarca Giovanni
Published: June 2022

Entre el siglo XIII y XIV la difusión más amplia de los conocimientos matemáticos se expande sectorialmente a la “clase media” de los artífices (artesanos, escultores, pintores, arquitectos, carpinteros) según sus exigencias peculiares. En este marco se institucionaliza una formación práctica, que encuentra en los maestros de ábaco en Italia una expresión muy concreta. En este artículo, sustentado en importantes fuentes primarias, proponemos considerar la formación de los cartógrafos y de los “maestros portulanos” en este vibrante contexto cultural como un camino de unión entre las antiguas tradiciones de la navegación y las nuevas técnicas con sus costumbres normativas y comerciales.

Diagnóstico psicopatológico
Authors: Gaspardo Rafaela Moretti , Campos Priscilla Perla Tartarotti  Von Zuben
Published: June 2022

Este manuscrito versa sobre indivíduos diagnosticados com uma doença mental. Questiona-se: Quais seriam os efeitos de um diagnóstico psicopatológico na felicidade do indivíduo e de suas relações sociais? Frente às problematizações quanto à temática da felicidade face à possíveis repercussões do diagnóstico psicopatológico, identificou-se artigos científicos sobre diagnóstico psicopatológico, verificando-se possíveis correlações quanto à felicidade dos indivíduos e de suas relações sociais. Para tanto, foi utilizada a plataforma CAPES, o Portal de Periódicos Eletrônicos de Psicologia (PePSIC) e o Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), com os descritores “felicidade” AND “doença mental” e/ou “felicidade” AND “saúde mental” AND “diagnóstico” em artigos científicos publicados no período de 2000 a 2020. Averiguou-se aspectos em torno das perdas relacionais e prejuízo na qualidade de vida, compreendendo-se que a percepção de infelicidade ante o diagnóstico ocorre. Um resultado diagnóstico mal orientado pode interferir negativamente na felicidade dos indivíduos que o recebem e seu entorno.
Subsídios para uma Pastoral Universitária
Authors: Gusso Enzo Campos
Published: June 2022

Entendo “pastoral” como a ação do Espírito de Cristo, através da Igreja, no mundo dos homens, ação de revelação e libertação que se quer eficaz e, por isso, orgânica e metódica, como a ciência, ao mesmo tempo carismática e espontânea, surgindo da vivência interior, como a arte...

É ciência quando reflete, analisa, critica, decide a legitimidade e a eficácia dos instrumentos e métodos da sua comunicação ao homem. É arte e carisma quando comunica a vida íntima da mensagem de Deus. (Para essas aproximações de “ciência e arte”, cf. Paulo VI, Esclarecimentos sobre atualização e pastoral, 6-3-63)...
Narrativas antivacinas e a crise de confiança em algumas instituições
Authors: Costa Tainá de Almeida , Silva Eunice Almeida da
Published: June 2022

As narrativas antivacinas vêm ganhando força ao redor do mundo e têm sido foco de preocupação de autoridades de saúde nacionais e internacionais. Este artigo tem como objetivo principal analisar as narrativas postadas em dois grupos antivacinas no Facebook publicadas em 2020, quando o mundo iniciava o enfrentamento da pandemia de covid-19. A estratégia metodológica utilizada para alcançar o objetivo e ancorar as análises é o Mapa das Mediações, de Martín-Barbero. Os resultados revelam, entre outros pontos, que as narrativas antivacinas estão, em grande parte, relacionadas com uma desconfiança em duas instituições: a ciência e o Estado. Isso permite o desdobramento de novos estudos focados no desenvolvimento de políticas públicas para o combate à desinformação sobre a saúde nos meios de comunicação.
Vulnerabilidade e resistência na pandemia de covid-19: por um outro imaginário
Authors: Lage Leandro Rodrigues
Published: June 2022

O texto propõe-se a refletir sobre a pandemia de covid-19 à luz do problema da vulnerabilidade. Discute-se a pertinência dos diagnósticos sobre a distribuição desigual da vulnerabilidade e as necropolíticas, enquanto chaves compreensivas de nossa realidade histórica. Tensiona-se o argumento de que a epidemia se constituiu enquanto marco histórico de um progresso moral civilizatório. Por fim, insiste-se na vulnerabilidade e no valor renovado da proteção e do amparo aos corpos, enquanto problemas cujo sentido ético depende de suas conversões em políticas e em imaginários de igualdade.

A quick survey of EEG signal noise removal methods
Authors: Anas Fouad Ahmed
Published: June 2022

An Electroencephalogram (EEG) is produced as a consequence of the electrical voltage of neurons in the brain. The EEG signal is crucial for detecting brain activity and attitude. Because this signal has very low amplitude, it is easily corrupted by different artefacts. The study and analysis of brain signals in the presence of these artifacts is a challenging task. ECG, EOG, EMG, and motion are the popular artifacts that induce disturbance to the EEG signal. This survey paper emphasizes the artifact elimination methods with their substantial parameters that must be considered during the study of published research on this trend.
