Authors: Marsigit Jessica , Fitriana Ika
Published: March 2023

Latar Belakang: Demensia adalah salah satu penyakit kronis degeneratif yang hingga saat ini belum memiliki tata laksana definitif. Beberapa suplementasi yang menjanjikan untuk meningkatkan fungsi kognitif, salah satunya adalah vitamin D3. Tujuan: Membuat telaah sistematis studi terkait suplementasi vitamin D3 dan peranannya dalam meningkatkan fungsi kognitif. Metode: Pencarian sistematis dilakukan pada tiga database, yaitu PubMed, CENTRAL, dan ScienceDirect untuk memilih studi eksperimental sesuai kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi. Artikel yang terpilih kemudian ditelaah kritis dan dianalisis lebih lanjut. Hasil: Pada analisis akhir didapatkan 5 artikel untuk telaah kritis, hanya satu studi memiliki risiko bias rendah. Empat studi populasi lanjut usia (lansia) tanpa gangguan kognitif menunjukkan tidak ada perbedaan signifikan fungsi kognitif kelompok suplementasi vitamin D dibandingkan kelompok plasebo. Satu studi populasi lansia penderita Alzheimer menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan nilai total IQ setelah suplementasi vitamin D3 800 IU per hari selama 12 bulan. Simpulan: Suplementasi vitamin D3 pada lansia dengan fungsi kognitif baik tidak menghasilkan perubahan fungsi kognitif bermakna. Namun, menjaga fungsi kognitif harus dilakukan secara komprehensif, dimulai dari pola diet seimbang, aktivitas fisik, serta latihan kognitif rutin.

Background: Dementia is one of the chronic degenerative diseases that until now does not have a definitive therapy. Several supplements are promising to increase cognitive function, including vitamin D3. Objective: Make a systematic review on studies related to vitamin D3 supplementation and its role in improving cognitive function. Method: A systematic search was carried out on three databases, which are PubMed, CENTRAL, and ScienceDirect to select experimental studies based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The selected articles were then critically reviewed and further analyzed. Results: Five articles were included in the final analysis to be critically appraised, only one study has a low risk of bias. Four studies regarding elderlies without cognitive dysfunction showed no significant differences between group with vitamin D supplementation and placebo in terms of cognitive function. One study with Alzheimer’s elderlies as the population showed a significant increase in total IQ score after vitamin D3 800 IU supplementation every day for 12 months. Conclusion: Vitamin D3 supplementation for elderlies with good cognitive function showed no significant difference. However, maintaining cognitive function needs a comprehensive management i.e., balanced diet, physical activity, and routine cognitive training.

Visual Translation, Design, and Language Justice: a Case Study from North Central Florida
Authors: Sierra-Niño Valentina , Gonzales Laura
Published: March 2023

Purpose: This article presents a case study of how a bilingual technical communicator and a bilingual visual designer collaborated to visualize stories of language access in North Central Florida. Method: We combined participatory methods used in technical communication
(Agboka, 2013; Rose and Cardinal, 2018) with interviews and design methods (Gonzalez Viveros et al., 2020) from both technical communication and visual design. The goal of the study was to document the languages spoken by immigrant community members in North Central Florida, to interview immigrant
community members about their languages, and to transform interview data into visual designs that could inspire conversation about language justice in our community. Results: By transforming interview data into visual designs (i. e., collages), we were able to understand the complexity
that language plays in the lives of multilingual communities, gaining insights into both the challenges and the advantages of speaking multiple languages as immigrants in North Central Florida. Conclusion: We encourage other technical communication and design researchers to implement
visual data approaches in their work, particularly when working with participants whose language histories span beyond white American Englishes. As technical communication continues expanding into more global contexts and as language diversity continues to be a reality in contemporary technical
communication work, interdisciplinary collaborations among technical communicators, translators, and designers, will continue to gain importance and impact, particularly in community- driven projects.

The evaluation of the physical attributes of the soil is of fundamental importance for the understanding of the impacts caused by the different uses in the agricultural systems. In this sense, the objective of this work was to evaluate the changes in physical attributes of the soil in an area with different uses located in the north of Espírito Santo. The experiment followed a randomized block design (DBC), in a 4 × 2 factorial scheme, represented by 4 areas (coffee, fruit, pasture and native forest) and 2 depth classes (0-10 and 10-20 cm), resulting in a total of 8 treatments with 5 replications. The physical attributes evaluated were: texture, Ds (soil density); Dp (particle density); Ma (macroporosity); Mi (microporosity) and Pt (total porosity). The data obtained were submitted to analysis of variance and the comparison of means was performed using the Tukey test at 5%, using the statistical program R© 4.2. Then, the physical attributes data were grouped into a similarity dendrogram, using the Euclidean distance method. The area with native forest presented the best physical attributes of the soil, followed by: coffee, fruit and pasture, not differing in depth. As for the analysis by grouping, native forest was similar to coffee growing and fruitful showed the greatest dissimilarity between land uses, especially in relation to forest.

Authors: G R Dr. Lokesh , Geethanjali G Dr.
Published: March 2023

There is a radical undercurrent of socio-economic transformation in Karnataka. Women Self Help Groups as entrepreneurial organization have started contributing to their own cause and to the economy. Women entrepreneurship has many interwoven dimensions and hence presents many challenges. In developing country like India where economic status of women is very pathetic especially in rural areas and opportunities of earning are very less in this scenario the Self Help Groups (SHGs) have paved the way for economic independence of rural women. The study analyzes literature review on Self-Help Groups in Entrepreneurship and Rural Women. This paper aims to provide a selective literature review of articles published in the last decade on self-help groups managed by rural women. The review also found that this research lacked a theoretical underpinning and that more research studies are needed to empirically validate some of the key variables emerging in this area of research. The study concludes with a literature synthesis and recommendations for future research.
The Vertical Rectus Abdominis Myocutaneous Flap for Complex Abdominal Wall Reconstruction on a Relapse Case of Monophasic Synovial Sarcoma
Authors: Alfadz Kholifah Akbar  , Muhammad Pratama Mandala Putra  , Denny Irwansyah
Published: March 2023

Introduction: Vertical Rectus Abdominis Myocutaneous (VRAM) flap is a chosen method for a large wound closure instead of Anterolateral Thigh (ALT) flap. Both versatile and highly vascularized flaps share almost similar advantages for large wound closure. In our case, the site and size of the wound are the points of consideration.
Case Presentation: A 16-year-old girl with a chief complaint of a large progressive lower abdominal mass enlarged since January 2021 that has grown back from the same site. Abdominal CT-Scan shows a tumor in the right lower abdomen infiltrated to the pelvic cavity and spanning from the lower abdominal area all the way to the groin area. Histopathology interpretation suggests a Monophasic Synovial Sarcoma. The patient underwent a second tumor resection with VRAM flap as the wound closure. The benefits of this versatile flap are excellent dead space obliteration and low Surgical Site Occurrence (SSO’s).
Conclusion: As postulated in many studies VRAM flap is an excellent flap for a CAWR procedure. The expected SSO’s is non-existence during the postoperative follow-up
The vocabulary of Learner-Space Interactions Understanding learning spaces experience through the repertory grid method
Authors: Lallemand Carine , Koenig Vincent
Published: March 2023

Higher education institutions are facing new educational challenges and are striving for an evolution in pedagogical practices. This evolution is accompanied by the need for innovative learning spaces to support students in the development of “21st century skills”. Designing these spaces requires a deep understanding of learners’ needs and experiences. User-centered design therefore appears as an adequate process to understand learning experiences in relation to spatial design. In this paper, we describe how the repertory grid method has been used to explore students’ perceptions of learning environments (N = 26). We identified 381 personal constructs (contrasted word pairs) associated with learning spaces and grouped them into seven categories (22 subcategories), ranked by number of occurrences. This study provides a basis for the development of a vocabulary of learners-spaces interactions, in support of the design and assessment of learning space experiences.
Using Emotional Attachment as a Lens to Improve User’s E-reading Experience
Authors: Girard Adam , Cowan Benjamin R. , Shankar Kalpana , Coyle David
Published: March 2023

This paper explores ways to improve e-reading by examining the experience of people who have developed a sense of attachment to their e-readers. Nine participants who reported experiencing emotional attachment completed a semi-structured interview asking them about their experiences with e-readers and e-reading. Thematic analysis led to three main themes being identified as important to their experiences: projection of identity, control over the device, and environmental factors. We examine how these themes suggest that people’s experiences of reading in traditional and electronic formats are heavily interlinked. We also discuss how these themes resonate with the wider attachment literature. Based on our findings we suggest the need to support the expression of identity through configuration and display in the e-reader experience, as well as exploring ways devices can be used to control and personalize the reading environment.
Investigating the effects of odours integration in reading and learning experiences
Authors: Bordegoni Monica , Carulli Marina , Shi Yuan , Ruscio Daniele
Published: March 2023

Books are the tools used for reading novel and stories, but also for educational purposes. Conventional books have undergone a radical transformation in recent years due to the use of new technologies. However, the technological devices used for reading e-books today are still poorly exploited, while they can represent a fundamental tool to make the reading experience more immersive by using a complete multisensory approach. In this perspective, one sense that represents an important element of human perception is the sense of smell. Consequently, authors make the hypothesis that the introduction of odours during reading sessions could increase the user experience and the learning performances. In order to demonstrate these hypotheses, the authors have defined and carried out several experimental testing sessions. The analysis of the collected data proved that the introduction of odours does not disturb the reader during reading activities but, on the contrary, it can make the experience more immersive. Similarly, odours do not disturb the studying activities, but they can instead increase the level of concentration and the learning performances of people.

Published: March 2023

In recognition of changes to the typical patterns of working life, Higher Education in overall the world is currently laying great stress on Competence-based learning. Nevertheless, while lifelong learning is increasingly influencing university and workplace in overall the world, some critical issues still have to be worked out so as to reach its full potential. Since, it appears to address the assessment expectations of these competences. This concern has not been sufficiently investigated and only a minority provided some efforts to grant the fundamental models to assess Learners based on the standard required competences. Thus, we propose in this work our semantic model for competence-based assessment to support the formal and informal learning competences visibility. As well, we provide a high level sub-models architecture. This framework is carried out through the use of Web Services. The experimentation results support our research goals.

Propofol infusion syndrome: a systematic review
Authors: Santos Lucas Rone , Estrin Marcelo Adrian
Published: March 2023

Introduction: propofol infusion syndrome (SIP) is a rare but extremely serious condition that can occur following the administration of high doses (>2 - 5 mg/kg/h) of propofol for prolonged periods (>48 hours). However, cases of SIP have also been reported after low-dose or short-duration propofol infusion. The condition is characterized by metabolic acidosis, cardiovascular and renal disturbances, rhabdomyolysis, as well as electrocardiographic abnormalities, etc.
Objective: to describe the main characteristics, prevention, diagnosis, and management of SIP.
Methods: a literature search and selection of articles published in the last 5 years on SIP in critically ill patients were carried out in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. This was done through the Pubmed, TRipDatabase, SciELO, and Google Scholar databases, following the PRISMA methodology.
Results: 26 articles were included, which analyzed the definition, general characteristics, epidemiology, risk factors, pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, prevention, and treatment.
Conclusions: the literature found reports that SIP is very rare but potentially fatal. The best treatment is prevention and early diagnosis. It is important to be aware that patients receiving propofol infusion are at risk of developing SIP. Therefore, greater monitoring and knowledge of patient clinical profiles is recommended. If SIP is suspected, propofol use should be discontinued and replaced with an alternative hypnotic agent, and management should be initiated. This includes immediate discontinuation of propofol infusion and problem-oriented management, such as hemodialysis, hemodynamic support, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in refractory cases. Further research is needed on SIP to obtain more data on its diagnosis, pathophysiology, and incidence

An Improved Model for Short Term load forecasting and Price Forecasting using Novel Machine learning for various areas of Lahore Pakistan
Authors: M. Sohaib Roomi Sohaibroomi
Published: March 2023

The economy relies on accurate projections of power usage. Accurate predictions of power consumption are essential for supply-side policymakers. In contrast, when there is a lack of data and considerations, it might be difficult to make accurate predictions. Consequently, using the original data sequence, we developed the DCOGM forecasting model, which combines data transformation with background value interpolation optimization (1,1). To test the accuracy of DCOGM (1,1) in simulation and prediction, two case studies are conducted. Most existing enhanced grey models do not do as well in forecasting as DCOGM (1,1) does, according to the data DCOGM is used to estimate Pakistan's Lahore City's overall energy consumption from 2017 to 2021. (1,1). According to the DCOGM (1,1) model, Lahore's demand for energy will increase over the next four years, comparing to those other grey adjustment models and the regular GM (1,1). It is possible to employ DCOGM (1,1) as a short-term forecasting approach in addition to other forecasting challenges with a limited number of data points.

Published: March 2023

The Internet is now experiencing an unprecedented expansion with the development of connected objects. At its inception the IoT, like any revolution, its objectives were quite limited. Its main objective was to reduce the effort of human data entry in order to allow the storage and automatic processing of the latter. Moreover, objects generate a lot of data that they cannot store or process by themselves, hence the need for external support. This is how Cloud Computing comes to answer this problem, making the success of IoT. This technology guarantees the storage, availability, processing, etc. of data, its integration into the latter is known as "Cloud of Things" CoT. The data generated should not only be stored, but rather processed in order to derive knowledge, decision making. The objective of our work is to analyze mutual authentication management models of IoT devices to optimize resources trying to provide solutions in the face of resource availability.

“Pensamiento – lenguaje – escritura": una perspectiva filosófica – educativa de la comunicación actual
Authors: Peralta Hernández Aroldo Enoc , Loza Cruz Jesús Alexander , Aoyama Argumedo Esperanza
Published: March 2023

El presente documento intenta explicar la existencia del lenguaje en el ser del humano, así como su esencia y trascendencia en la sociedad. Para que ello suceda, no se debe tomar al lenguaje como un concepto aislado sino implicar sus relaciones de dependencia. Estas relaciones resultan ser, por un lado, la facultad de pensamiento y por otro, un instrumento con el que se le represente, en este caso la escritura. De esta manera es como conciliamos la relación que existe entre pensamiento, lenguaje y escritura, de lo cual sostenemos que cuando alguna de estas se ve afectada incide en las otras dos. Sin duda alguna, la comunicación, como causa final del lenguaje, ha ido evolucionando en demasía. Por ello, reflexionar sobre los actos comunicativos que del lenguaje se derivan resulta ser de suma importancia en el estudio de las ciencias humanas, más específicamente en la Filosofía Educativa.

Sa’duddîn et-Teftâzânî (öl. 792/1390) tarafından ‘Akâ‘idu’n-Nesefî üzerine kaleme alınan Şerhu’l-Akâid isimli eser, kelâm şerh geleneğinin en meşhur örneklerinden birisidir. Klasik kelâm tarihinde büyük bir öneme sahip olan bu eser, Osmanlı uleması tarafından rağbet görmüş ve asırlarca medreselerin müfredatını şekillendirerek ders kitabı olarak okutulmuştur. Mezkûr önemine binaen bu çalışmamızda Şerhu’l-Akâid isimli eser ele alınmış ve hadis ilmi açısından incelenerek bazı tespitlerde bulunulmuştur. Buna göre, eserde mevcut bir rivâyet kullanımından bahsetmek mümkündür. Ancak bu rivâyetlerin daha çok sem‘îyyat ve muhtelif meselelerin ele alındığı bölümlerde yoğunlaştığı görülmektedir. Diğer taraftan eserde kullanılan hadislerin büyük bir kısmının ilk dönem hadis kaynaklarında tahric edildiği ve bunların yaklaşık üçte ikisinin sıhhat bakımından sahih veya hasen olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Rivâyetleri hadis âlimlerinden farklı olarak isnad zikretmeden eserine alan Teftâzânî, zaman zaman takti’ ve iktibas yöntemleriyle hadis kullanmış ve şâhid-mütâbi türü rivâyetlere de yer vermiştir. Hadisleri anlama noktasında ise lafızcı yak-laşımdan ziyade te’vilci yaklaşımı benimseyen Teftâzânî, nadir de olsa metin tenkidi kriterlerinden Kur’an ve sünnete arz metotlarına da başvurmuştur. Haberlerin bilgi değeri noktasında önemli tartışmalara giren Teftâzânî, haber-i vâhidlerin mücerret olarak itikatta delil olamayacağını vurgulamıştır. Ancak bu yaklaşıma rağmen, eserinin birçok yerinde bu tür haberleri delil olarak kullanmıştır.

Cilj: Kvalitetna prehrana, koja podrazumijeva uravnoteženi unos hranjivih i zaštitnih tvari, jedan je od preduvjeta za prevenciju pretilosti i očuvanje zdravlja pojedinca. Cilj ovoga rada bio je utvrditi unos pojedinih makronutrijenata učenika mlađe školske dobi, te ustanoviti postoji li povezanost unosa pojedinih makronutrijenata s odgovarajućim pokazateljima statusa uhranjenosti i sastava tijela. Metode: Istraživanje je provedeno na uzorku 402 učenika, polaznika četvrtih razreda osnovnih škola Zadarske županije. Temeljem 6 morfoloških mjera izračunati su pokazatelji statusa uhranjenosti i sastava tijela (indeks tjelesne mase, indeks za procjenu rizičnog tipa pretilosti, subskapularno tricipitalni indeks i % masti), a unos pojedinih makronutrijenata procijenjen je FFQ upitnikom frekvencija za procjenu unosa hrane i nutrijenata. Izračunati su osnovni deskriptivni parametri, testirana je normalnost distribucije, a za definiranje funkcionalne veze pokazatelja statusa uhranjenosti i sastava tijela, te unosa pojedinih makronutrijenata, primijenjena je regresijska analiza. Rezultati: Prosječni dnevni energetski unos učenika (2132,56±703,99 kcal/dan) odgovara preporučenom dnevnom unosu energije s obzirom na dob ispitanika, dok je prosječni dnevni energetski unos učenica (2110,14±760,77 kcal/dan) nešto viši od preporučenoga. Učenice unose nešto više proteina i masti od preporučenog dnevnog unosa, dok učenici unose nešto manje ugljikohidrata. Na uzorku učenika nema značajne povezanosti apsolutnog unosa pojedinih makronutrijenata i pokazatelja statusa uhranjenosti i sastava tijela, dok je kod učenica dobivena značajna negativna povezanost unosa proteina sa sumom kožnih nabora (β=-0,42) i značajna pozitivna povezanost unosa masti s opsegom trbuha (β=0,46). Zaključak: Prosječni dnevni energetski unos ispitanika diferencira se s obzirom na spol, kao i povezanost unosa pojedinih makronutrijenata s pokazateljima statusa uhranjenosti. Prekomjerni unos pojedinih makronutrijenata može doprinijeti porastu pojedinih pokazatelja statusa uhranjenosti i sastava tijela, a značajne povezanosti upućuju na zaključak da kvalitetna i ravnomjerna prehrana može značajno pridonijeti boljem statusu uhranjenosti ispitanika
Reviewing Software Testing Models and Optimization Techniques: An Analysis of Efficiency and Advancement Needs

Software testing is a crucial component of software engineering that aims to confirm the intended functionality of software modules and minimize the likelihood of future failures. This paper provides a comprehensive review of various software testing models and optimization techniques available in the literature, emphasizing their performance analysis and related research papers. The paper analyzes and discusses the most commonly used software testing models, including waterfall, incremental, V-model, agile, and spiral models, and identifies several areas for improvement to increase their effectiveness. These areas include using machine learning techniques to automate and optimize testing processes, reducing the number of test cases required, and introducing new metrics to gauge the success of testing. Moreover, the paper suggests developing entirely novel methods to deal with the challenges of contemporary software programs, such as the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence. This paper aims to analyze various software testing models and optimization techniques thoroughly, highlight their advantages and disadvantages, and suggest improvements to increase their efficiency and effectiveness. By continuously improving and optimizing software testing processes, software modules can function as intended, minimizing the likelihood of future failures.
Europäischer Grundrechtsschutz für (dritt-)staatliche Propagandasender? – Anmerkung zum Urteil des EuG v. 27.7.2022, Rs. T-125/22 (RT France/Rat)
Authors: Gundel Jörg
Published: March 2023

Der im Februar 2022 begonnene russische Angriff auf die Ukraine und die daraufhin von der EU erlassenen Sanktionen stellen die Unionsgerichte erstmals vor die Notwendigkeit, über die Zulässigkeit von restriktiven Maßnahmen gegen Medienangebote zu entscheiden: Denn die EU hat in diesem Rahmen auch die Verbreitung des Programms von russischen Staatssendern verboten, die in jüngerer Zeit offensiv ihre Verankerung in der Medienlandschaft der EU-Mitgliedstaaten betrieben haben. Das Gericht sieht diese Maßnahmen der Union im Ergebnis zu Recht als zulässig an; die Grundrechtsfähigkeit solcher Staatssender wird dabei allerdings zu Unrecht als unproblematisch vorausgesetzt.
Die EU schafft transnationale soziale Rechte
Authors: Eichenhofer Eberhard
Published: March 2023

Soziale Sicherheit beruht auf nationaler Gesetzgebung, die Einwohnerwie Erwerbstätige dieses Staates schützt. Internationale Migration fordert die soziale Sicherheit heraus, weil Menschen unterschiedlichen Sozialrechten unterworfen sind. Das EU-Sozialrecht regelt deren Folgen, bestimmt das auf grenzüberschreitende Sachverhalte anwendbare Recht und normiert durch die Gebote zur Gleichbehandlung wie Gleichstellung, Eröffnung des Zugangs zu Versicherungsleistungen und Exports von Geldleistungen internationale Rechte sozialer Sicherheit. Sie bauen auf den materiellen Normen der Staaten und verbinden diese miteinander. Das europäische Koordinierungsrecht schafft dadurch eine materielle europäische Sozialgesetzgebung aus den materiellen Sozialversicherungsrechten der Staaten.

What are the legal conditions under the GDPR to determine wether data is to be considered personal data, pseudonymous or anonymous? This is currently afflicted with considerable legal uncertainty. Based on the prerequisites of the GDPR and the recent case law of the ECJ this thesis develops an extended relative understanding of the term “personal data” and articulates the legal framework and requirements that form the basis for the legal assessment of the reference of data to a personal or its pseudonymity or anonymity. This thesis elaborates various processing situations and shows the legal scope for their design. The thesis at hand is directed to both parties of academia and practice.

Background: Uncontrolled elevation of intraoperative blood pressure can result in deleterious effects with increased risk of morbidity and mortality. Objectives: We aimed to compare nitroglycerine infusion with dexmedetomidine infusion in controlling accidental intraoperative uncontrolled hypertension. Methods: This comparative study was conducted on 73 hypertensive patients undergoing cancer surgeries who experienced uncontrolled intraoperative hypertension. The data of 38 patients were retrieved from the medical records for the nitroglycerine group and 35 patients were prospectively enrolled for the dexmedetomidine group. Group N received nitroglycerine infusion (0.3 - 1 µg/kg/min), while group D received dexmedetomidine infusion (0.2 - 0.7 µg/kg/h). Results: Both groups were comparable regarding their demographic data and clinical characteristics. Systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial pressure (MAP) values were significantly lower in group N compared to group D during the period between 60 and 120 minutes intraoperatively (P < 0.001). Heart rate values were significantly lower in group D than in group N (P < 0.001). Postoperative sedation scores were better for group D with lower analgesic requirements (P < 0.001). Conclusions: Dexmedetomidine infusion can be used to manage the uncontrolled intraoperative elevation of blood pressure in selected patient population.
