Published: September 2022

Coffee is a kind of drink that comes from the processing and extraction of coffee beans. In the production of coffee powder, the flavor is the essential quality because flavor affects consumer preferences. To produce a coffee drink that has a distinctive flavour, that is by combining robusta coffee beans and black glutinous rice. The purpose of this study was to determine the best treatment combination of temperature and roasting time of robusta coffee beans and black glutinous rice on the quality of the coffee powder. The research design used RAK which was arranged in a factorial manner of two factors, namely roasting temperatures of 190°C, 200°C, 210°C, and roasting times of 10, 15, and 20 minutes, to obtain 9 treatment combinations, 3 replicates. The research data were analyzed statistically by the ANOVA test, followed by the BNJ test. While the hedonic quality test is analyzed using the Friedman method. The Effectiveness Index test does determination of the best treatment. The best quality of coffee powder is produced at a temperature and roasting time of 200°C 20 minutes, namely the yield of 8.40%, the water content of 1.39%, ash content of 3.80%, the caffeine content of 1.33%, total antioxidants 71.87%, organoleptic characteristics, namely flavor 3.73 (strong), acidity 3.40 (quite sour), body/mouthfeel 3.67 (thick) and color 3.53 (black).

This study aims to determine and describe the mental health impacts that arise in adolescents during the stay-at-home period of the COVID-19 pandemic. This type of research was a Mix Method with a Sequential Explanatory approach with a Participant Selection model. There were 12 informants in this study consisting of 6 primary informants, 3 key informants, and 3 additional informants. The population in this study amounted to 1000 people with a total sampling technique. The results showed that the highest frequency of each variable was very severe anxiety amounting to 313 people, Normal Stress was 511 people, and normal depression was 548 people. Loneliness, confinedness, academic pressure, parental pressure, family relationships, and fear of infection negatively affect adolescents' mental health. The impact of anxiety on adolescents during the Stay at the home period of the COVID-19 pandemic is feeling fear of contracting COVID-19 either themselves or those close to them. The impact of stress on adolescents during the stay at home period of the COVID-19 pandemic is that it is difficult to focus when online learning, feeling lonely being at home continuously, feel bored at home and feel like they are confined because they can't go anywhere during this pandemic. The impact of depression on adolescents during the stay at home period of the COVID-19 pandemic is that, overall, there are actually few teenagers who appear to be experiencing depression or symptoms of depression
Debates of Fundamental Theories in People, Law and Freedom: Locke and Rousseau
Authors:   University College London, Wei Yifan
Published: September 2022

This essay is aimed to discuss the comparative views of John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s account of freedom within a state of nature and in a civil society. The concept of a state of nature as a starting assumption of a social contract, and the difference in freedom and rights within a state of nature and civil society is crucial to the discussion of social contract theories, the legitimacy of governments, and constitutions. I shall first explain and analyse both writers’ conceptions of the state of nature and civil society, and what freedom do we have in each and how we have them. Finally, by reflecting on both theorists’ assumptions and philosophical conditioning I will show that Rousseau’s account of freedom in a state of nature and civil society is more convincing depiction of freedom in a state of nature and in a civil society, as it gives a more relevant assumption of human condition and a preferable theory of government that ensures civil freedom.

This paper concludes the development and current problems of regional integration in the Yangtze River Delta, including the inadequate oversight and appraisal mechanisms and guarantees mechanisms for interregional cooperation, the lack of integration of dual chains, the urgent need to enhance the construction of ecofriendly ecological sustainability, and a proposal.
Ranokršćansko slikarstvo i skulptura u Iliriku u doba sv. Jeronima
Authors: Jarak Mirja
Published: September 2022

U doba djelovanja sv. Jeronima, tijekom druge pol. 4. i u prvim desetljećima 5. st., u cijelom Iliriku dolazi do razvoja ranokršćanske umjetnosti. Vidljive su, ipak, razlike između pojedinih provincija, uvjetovane različitim povijesnim okolnostima. Zbog širine teme, u radu se od ranokršćanskog slikarstva i skulpture obrađuju samo oslikane grobnice i plastika sarkofaga. Iako sv. Jeronim nije posebno komentirao slikarstvo i skulpturu u Iliriku, ističe se povezanost nekih motiva s njegovim tekstovima.

Authors: Osman Abdelhady , Duncan Amanda , Giurca Patricia , Maxwell Colleen J. , Kamkar Nellie , Hogan David B. , Montero-Odasso Manuel
Published: September 2022

Background
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant disruption to research activities across Canada. The Training and Capacity Building (T&CB) Program of the Canadian Consortium on Neurodegeneration in Aging (CCNA) conducted a survey be-tween May 11th, 2020 and May 19th, 2020 to identify the chal-lenges faced by CCNA trainees because of the pandemic and how to best support trainees in response to those challenges.
Methods
Graduate students and postdoctoral researchers working under the supervision of CCNA investigators (n=113) were invited to complete a web-based survey of 13 questions. Trainees were asked questions about the impact of COVID-19 on their research activities, degree progression, funding status, and suggestions for support from the T&CB Program during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Results
A total of 41 trainees responded to the survey (response rate: 36.3%); 83% of respondents reported that they experienced changes to their research activities as a result of COVID-19, and 50% anticipated that their degree completion would be delayed. Respondents requested information from the T&CB Program on funding for non-COVID-19 projects, alternative datasets, and short educational workshops.
Conclusion
The majority of CCNA trainees surveyed experienced sig-nificant changes to their research activities as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The T&CB Program responded by switching to online programming and facilitating remote research. Further engagement with trainees is needed to ensure continued progress of research in age-related neurodegenera-tive disease in Canada post-pandemic.

Authors: Mahmoudzadeh Kenari Mostafa , Akhlaghi Saeed , Motie Mohammad Reza
Published: September 2022

Background: Prevention of surgical site infection (SSI) in hernia repair with mesh remains the main concern. Many risk factors have been proposed; however, the role of changing the glove remains to be elucidated. Methods: This longitudinal study was conducted on adult inguinal hernia cases referred to elective repair using mesh reconstruction. Two hundred cases were enrolled and classified into two groups, including the group that surgeon and his assistants changed the glove and the group in which the gloves remained unchanged. Age, gender, surgery duration, and the side of hernia were compared between those who developed SSI and those without this complication. Moreover, the infection rate was compared between the two study groups. Results: One hundred and two males (51.0%) and 98 females (49.0%) with a mean age of 42.60 ± 15.79 years old were enrolled in the study. None of the variables showed a significant difference between SSI cases and non-SSI cases. Moreover, the rate of infection was not significantly different between the two study groups. Conclusions: Glove changing before mesh application indicates no considerable role in reducing SSI rate; however, further studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Authors: Tunç Murat , Biçer Behiye
Published: September 2022

This research was carried out at Dicle University, Faculty of Agriculture during the spring season in 2020. Four chickpea varieties (Cagatay, ILC 3279, Ak 71114 and Spanish chickpea) were used. Genetic parameters were estimated for plant and agricultural traits in 4 parents and their 6 F2 combinations obtained from their half-diallel crossbreeding in chickpea. Half diallel genetic parameters, ratios and graphs (Vr,Wr) were estimated using to methods of Hayman (1954a, 1954b, 1960) in the experiment. The study was carried out randomized complete blocks design with three replications. In the study, days to first flowering, plant height, internode length, the first flower node number, internode thickness was examined. Analysis of variance revealed that differences among genotypes were significant for days to first flowering days, plant height and first flower node number. However, internode length, 5th, 7th and 9th internodes thickness were nonsignificant. Dominant allele genes are more than the recessive allele genes in the days to first flowering, plant height and first flower node number. Epistatic gene effects were significant in the parents for days to first flowering. Cagatay and ILC 3279 had mostly dominant genes, but Ak 71114 had recessive genes. Additive genetic variance was significant for days to first flowering, plant height and internode length. Internode length for parents was mostly recessive genes, especially Spanish and Ak 71114. The dominant gene effect was significant for the first flower node number. In the narrow sense heritability degree was 42% for plant height and 45% for days to first flowering.
Comparison of recovery profiles of propofol and sevoflurane anesthesia with bispectral Index monitoring In general anesthesia: Running title: Recovery profiles: Propofol vs sevoflurane
Authors: Pandya Parth , Panjabi Gauri , Parmar Jaimini , Patel Binal
Published: September 2022

Introduction: Introduction of more rapid and short-acting volatile anesthetics and intravenous anesthetics has allowed anesthesiologists to achieve a recovery profile that facilitates rapid emergence after general anesthesia. Both propofol and sevoflurane provide rapid induction and faster recovery by titrating the depth of anesthesia based on the BIS Index during maintenance. The objectives of the study were analysis of hemodynamic parameters, changes in the BIS Index, recovery characteristics, postoperative complications. Methods: Following IRB approval, an observational study was conducted in 60 patients of ASA grade I-II, aged 18-60 years undergoing surgical procedures under general anesthesia. Patients were randomly divided into two groups, with 30 patients each receiving propofol infusion (Group P) or sevoflurane (Group S) to maintain anesthesia. The requirement of anesthetic agents was titrated by BIS monitoring. BIS score was held between 40 to 60. Results: Hemodynamic parameters like heart rate and mean arterial pressure (MAP) were comparable in both groups. During recovery, the meantime to spontaneous ventilation, eye-opening, hand squeezing, following verbal command, extubation, stating the name, and mean time to achieve modified Aldrete's score of ≥ 9 from the cessation of the anesthetic drug was significantly shorter in Group S as compared to Group P. PONV was noted as a postoperative complication in the sevoflurane group. Conclusion: In our study, sevoflurane provided rapid emergence and faster recovery with stable hemodynamic. However, propofol appears to be an excellent alternative to sevoflurane for maintenance of anesthesia as it also provides fast recovery with a lower incidence of PONV
Patient safety in anesthesia: Learning from mistakes?
Authors: Nešković Vojislava
Published: September 2022

Anesthesiology is the first specialization with clearly defined activities towards patient safety. The Helsinki Declaration on patient safety in anesthesiology, launched in 2010 and signed by the Serbian Association of Anesthesiologists and Intensivists (SAAI), represents a framework for building safety culture and raising awareness on improving the quality of anesthesia and intensive care. It is important to understand why and how patients complete their surgical treatment without unexpected adverse events and which safety features are a natural part of the anesthesiologist's daily work. At the same time, it is necessary to identify weaknesses that can be corrected and prevent mistakes or complications that adversely affect the outcome. Reporting critical incidents is one element of improving patient safety through organizational changes and improved procedures in patient management. In 2018, connected to the UAIS website, a platform for critical incident reporting in anesthesia and intensive care: "Critical incident reporting system Serbia (CIRSS)", was created, which, unfortunately, has not given the expected results yet. Regardless of the complexity of implementing change, every individual who advocates safety culture and represents a role model in their working environment can make a huge contribution to improving everyday practice. Critical incident reporting and analysis should be a mandatory part of the anesthesia curriculum, as well as part of continuing medical education program.
Media representation of female athletes at the most "gender-equal" Olympic games
Authors: Đukić-Živadinović Tatjana , Vujović Marija
Published: September 2022

The Tokyo 2021 Olympics are declared the first gender-equal games because almost 49% of the nearly 11,000 athletes in Tokyo were women, which is why they are very important for the analysis from the gender perspective. This paper aims to determine how much and in what way female athletes were represented in the media. The research is based on the hypothesis that female athletes are underrepresented compared to male athletes and that most media content about female athletes contains gender stereotypes. Quantitative and qualitative content analysis were applied. The corpus of research consists of a total of 730 articles published on the Serbian digital media "Blic Online". The authors conclude that only 30 percent of media space is dedicated to female athletes. The research also shows that 40 percent of articles about female athletes contain gender stereotypes or are not related to sports and professional results of female athletes. Despite the progress achieved in the Olympic Games' gender policy, the media image does not reflect it.
Role of acute pain when achieving cuffing position using means of restraint
Authors: Milosavljević Srđan , Drljačić Dragana , Srećković Sreten
Published: September 2022

The paper indicates the role and importance of acute pain during the operation of cuffing. The application of means of restraint from the space of physical strength, which usually precedes the activity of cuffing, requires a good knowledge of individual fighting techniques, and especially levers which serve to bring the person into the cuffing position by creating the feeling of acute pain. In that sense, lever is a good choice, because by executing lever, a person can be kept under control both for a shorter and a longer period of time, i.e. as long as it takes for cuffing to be performed safely. For that reason, it is important to know and distinguish the factors that define the individual value of each lever: possible level of infliction of pain (availability of body part, possibility of precise support, required level of force, time required for realization, etc.), as well as basic consequences of lever application. The applied lever, whose execution is harmonized with the previously mentioned factors, will produce sufficiently intense acute pain. Pain is an unpleasant sensory or emotional experience that is caused by potential or existing tissue damage or one that is described in words that would correspond to the said damage.
Digital habits of Generation Z: Students of sports
Authors: Markov-Čikić Ivana , Ivanovski Aleksandar
Published: September 2022

The new virtual reality of today's society and its interaction with members of the younger population is an increasingly common subject of research. The question is whether and to what extent it is possible to stop the domination of the digital. Is sport an activity that can compete with the new virtual reality and the world of video games? The paper presents online habits and inclinations towards video games of the first-year students of the Belgrade College of Sports and Health, not only qualitatively - in order to examine the time spent on video games and compare it with the time spent on sports and recreation, but also qualitatively, in terms of content - topics that occupy this particular segment of population, talented in sports and sports-oriented, but at the same time digitally-oriented. The paper has demonstrated, on a selected sample of sport-oriented members of Generation Z, some deviations from the digital characteristics of the generation they belong to demographically, the generation in which the use and application of technology is dominant in obtaining any practical information, as well as in communication and entertainment. The sample consisting of students of sports academic courses has demonstrated that a very high percentage of these students practice sports on a regular basis defying the current sedentary lifestyle. Many of them do not belong to the present-day youth subculture - 'the gamers' community', and even those who do belong to the pop culture of computer games prefer sports computer games as their choice of virtual content.
Psychomotor pattern for neurological assessment of reflex in karate and taekwondo: Manual muscle test under load - general model
Authors: Savić Radoš , Kalinović Maja
Published: September 2022

A reflex is an involuntary reaction of the nervous system to intrinsic and extrinsic stimuli. In athletes, it is largely damaged, which presents a serious problem. The psychomotor pattern for the neurological assessment of reflex in karate, taekwondo and other martial arts is based on the principles of physiology, neurology and biomechanics. Pattern can be defined as an inseparable entity of the physical (motor), psychological (mental-emotional) and energy factor, during manual muscle test under load used to assess muscle tonus, which is the subject of this paper. The aim of the paper is to determine neurological reflex activities of athletes' muscles when they are subject to load in order to fully exploit their potential. Investigating the reaction of the peripheral nervous system was based on the assessment of examinees' reflexes, among which were active athletes N = 50 and random sample of examinees N = 50, as well as on data comparison. The results indicated the damaged muscle innervation in 46% of athletes and 50% of random sample of examinees. The conclusion is that muscle tone virtually does not depend on whether someone is engaged in sport or not, and on the other hand, it sends a warning that it is necessary to balance the nervous system. Therefore, by restoring biological feedback, an adequate reaction of the nervous system improves health and athletes' training process. The authors provide a model of pre-exercise testing, which has the basic role of preventing muscle tone and a key role as a guardian of natural human functioning.
Controversies related to real protection against SARS-CoV-2 virus of the most frequently used face masks
Authors: Jokanović Vukoman , Živković Slavoljub
Published: September 2022

Face masks serve to protect the respiratory system from unwanted aerosol droplets, in which various types of pathogens or pollutants are present. They are particularly important during a pandemic, like SARS-CoV-2 pandemic we are withessing. The efficiency of filtration of aerosol droplets, which contain the virus particles, is generally unsatisfactory, especially in conditions of extremely virulent environments, for the most of commercially available masks. Therefore, the challenge is to produce masks with increased filtration efficiency, in order to reduce the percentage of virus penetration through the mask. Hence, it is crucial to correctly define the possibilities and limitations of today's most commonly used epidemiological masks, in order to successfully define completely new concepts of face masks manufacturing, which would enable the most effective protection not only of medical workers but also patients, especially in areas where virus concentrations are extremely high. Also, it has been shown that, in addition to the concentrations of infectious pathogens in a given environment, the conditions in which infection with a given pathogen occurs, such as temperature and humidity within a given contaminated space, are also important.

Published: September 2022

The inhibiting impact of ecofriendly 5-[4-(dimethylamino) benzylidene]-1,3-dimethylbarbituric acid in 1 M HCl on the corrosion for carbon steel has been examined via "weight loss (WL) method, potentiodynamic polarization (PP), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), electrochemical frequency modulation (EFM) tests". The attained outcomes exhibit that the investigated compound is excellent inhibitor and its inhibition efficiency (%IE) rises by raising concentration and decreases by raising the temperature. The adsorption of 5-arylidene barbituric acid on the surface of C-steel follows Langmuir isotherm. The adsorption process of the investigated compound is spontaneous and considered as of chemisorption and physisorption type. PP curves revealed that the 5-arylidene barbituric acid derivative is mixed-type inhibitor. Moreover, EIS results confirmed the adsorption of the investigated compound on C-steel surface via increasing on charge transfer resistance (R ct). The IE% of this inhibitor reached to 86.9% at concentration 21×10-6 M according to PP method. Finally, the experimental and theoretical results are in good harmony.

Published: September 2022

This paper presents a discussion of the results of previous research of the effects of surface modification of structural materials and tool steels using plasma nitriding (PN) in order to improve their mechanical, tribological and corrosion behavior. The paper discusses the current status and future directions in the application of PN on various wearing components that are exposed to high loads, stresses and frequent temperature changes. The paper provides an overview of the relevant literature whose results show the most favorable or optimal parameters of the PN process aimed at achieving the best performance in terms of wear and corrosion resistance and hardness increase for the various materials considered. Systematization of literature data about research of the impact of low-temperature PN on stainless steels has placed emphasis on those process mechanisms that achieve benefits for surface layers without creating negative side effects in the form of loss of corrosion resistance. The strengthening of hot forging dies is considered through the reasons and problems that cause the need for the application of PN, and then paper focuses on the role of PN in achieving the tribological properties required to extend the service life of the die. Publications in which the nitriding of titanium alloys is investigated through the reduction of wear, increase of bearing capacity and microhardness depending on the input parameters of the process, ie the optimal parameters applied in order to obtain the best performance characteristics are cited. The application of PN to aluminum and its alloys is discussed, as well as the conditions of testing and the achieved improvements.

Theoretical experimental aspects of composition with polymeric matrix reinforced with polymer particles
Authors: Vozga Indrit , Kasemi Vladimir
Published: September 2022

The development of composite materials and related design and production methods is one of the most important advances in the history of materials. They can be accurately modeled to respond to the requirements of the most specific applications. Many composites show, in addition to high mechanical properties, also high resistance to corrosion at high temperatures, to oxidation and wear. These unique features give design possibilities that are not achieved with any of the traditional monolithic materials. Many technological processes of composites are best suited for the production of large and complex structures, which has allowed their compaction and realization in the form of "one body", thus reducing production costs. The case of the composite with polymeric matrix reinforced with polymer particles is also interesting. PS and HDPE are two of the most used plastics in the world with a production scale of billions of tons. Less than 10% of this production is recycled. One use for recycled plastics, especially HDPE, is to melt into profiles that resemble beams, hence the term plastic beams. These products are used as building materials in many applications. One drawback of some plastic beam products is their tendency to slip.

2021 stod fortsat en god del i coronaens tegn, hvilket blandt andet har betydet at forskningsansatte har været trukket ud i klinikken til at bidrage med driften. Trods det så er der alligevel kommet flotte bidrag til tidsskriftet.

Et af bidragene kom fra vores kollegaer i Norge, Ofstad et al, som undersøgte effekten af faste akutlæger i akutmodtagelserne. Undersøgelsen viste at tilstedeværelsen af en akutlæge reducerer liggetiden og tendensen til crowding af patienter i akutmodtagelsen. Foruden bedring af patientflowet bidrog akutmedicineren også til øget psykologisk sikkerhed for de vagthavende yngre læger i akutmodtagelsen.

Elderly Hospitalized Home-Patients in the Cross-Sectoral Team Care at North Zealand Hospital’s Emergency Department
Authors: Schmidt Lasse
Published: September 2022

Background: With an increasing- and an increasingly aging population, the elderly morbidity burden is growing. This raises the question of how we can effectively respond to this health-care challenge in a hospital setting where more patients are both old and comorbid. Consequently, North Zealand Hospital’s (NOH’s) Emergency Department (E.D.) has launched a pilot project that explores the value of having a cross-sectoral team (CST) to specifically manage old (65+ y.o.), complexly ill, and vulnerable patients on a hospital-at-home (HaH) basis. The purpose of this study was to classify and categorize the CST’s elderly HAH patients (not formally discharged from NOH’s E.D. but receive home visits by the E.D.’s HaH nurses).

Methods: Data regarding the HaH CST-patients at NOH were prospectively gathered during February 2021. Microsoft Excel software was then used to categorize and analyze the data. Numeric data are given as means ± SEM.Results: There were 227 HaH CST-interventions. Of these, 186 (81.9%) were elderly patients. The number of unique HaH elderly CST-patients (uHaHe-CSTps) was 108 (56 male and 52 female) aged 81 ± 0.8 years. The uHaHe-CSTps were categorized into age groups as following: 10 (65-69 y.o.), 18 (70-70 y.o.), 20 (75-79 y.o.), 17 (80-84 y.o.), 27 (85-89 y.o.), 13 (90-94 y.o.), 3 (95-97 y.o.). Of the uHaHe-CSTps, 93% were multimorbid, 82% had polypharmacy, 33.3% were readmitted patients within 2 weeks after ended HaH CST-intervention, and 4.6% died while in HaH CST-care.

Conclusion: NOH’s E.D. has vulnerable, elderly, and complexly ill patients who may benefit from the medical care of the CST’s HaH function. Furthermore, the HaH CST assists NOH’s E.D. and the municipality by taking care of issues that can be handled effectively at the patient's home.
