Hostile Households: Deportability and Reproductive Geography in Brown’s Assembly and Varvello’s "Brexit Blues"
Authors: Montesi Vanessa
Published: January 2025

This article argues that Comparative Studies adequately show how literature can serve as an original resource for animating interdisciplinary geopolitical debates, contributing in important ways to other disciplines (in this case, social and political theory) and the theories used to analyse them. It does so by focusing on the comparative analysis of two works of fiction that deal with the intimate repercussions of the UK’s hostile environment rhetoric and policies on transnational couples, showing how they challenge and complicate Bridget Anderson’s concept of “community of value” (2013) and add significant elements to Sara Ahmed’s theory of The Cultural Politics of Emotions(2014). Through a comparative approach to the discussion on how deportability impinges upon intimacy and romantic relationships, I consider Marco Varvello’s short-story “Brexit Blues”(2018) and Natasha Brown’s novel As-sembly(2021) as “scale-bending” (Smith 2004) literary projects that highlight the scalar slide between household and nation to reveal the intertwinings of migration and reproductive politics in today’s “climatic context of anti-blackness” (Gedalof 2022) and immigration eugenics (D’Aoust 2022).

Informal Sector Migrants and Remittances: Questioning the Culture and Socio-Economic Impact
Authors: Adihartono Wisnu
Published: January 2025

This paper discusses the socio-economic impact of informal sector migrants and their remintances. It is known that in 2018 informal sector workers amounted to 58.22 percent. This is of course very worrying. The informal sector is unorganized, unregulated, and mostly legal but unregistered. The motivation of workers who work in the informal sector is to earn enough income for survival. From an economic point of view, the existence of remittances can be said to be important because it is able to improve the family economy and for the progress of the recipient community. In addition to being one of the instruments of economic change, remittances also have a broad impact on social and cultural life for families, recipient communities and their areas of origin. In the context of migration, it is stated that remittances in developing countries are a form of migrant efforts in maintaining the continuity of socio-economic ties with the area of origin, even though they are geographically far apart. This research uses qualitative research methods, descriptive and direct observation which is only carried out in Jakarta by looking directly at how informal sector migrants work.

Published: January 2025

Drug abuse has become a global phenomenon and poses a serious threat to society at local, national, regional, and international levels. The National Narcotics Agency (BNN), as the leading sector in the Prevention and Eradication of Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking (P4GN), has a policy direction in the field of rehabilitation aimed at improving rehabilitation facilities to enhance the quality of life of drug abusers, addicts, and/or victims of drug abuse (P2K). This study was conducted using mixed methods: a qualitative approach through in-depth interviews with clients and significant others, and a quantitative approach by identifying and analyzing each variable in the WHOQoL-BREF in its impact on the quality of life of drug abuse victims. The study's findings indicate that the WHOQoL condition of outpatient clients is at a good level, with recovery and empowerment in both public and domestic spaces. This condition is not only influenced by the clients' and families' commitment and motivation but also by their experiences during rehabilitation services.
Household Resilience in Rural and Urban Societies: A Sociological-Anthropological Perspective
Authors: Rozikin Opik , Sunaryo Mukhlas Oyo , Ahmad Saebani Beni
Published: January 2025

This paper examines the sociological and anthropological perspectives on household resilience in rural and urban communities. This research is grounded in significant social change, where values and social structure shifts impact how individuals and families sustain their existence. This study aims to understand how sociocultural factors influence household resilience strategies and compare the differences and similarities between rural and urban communities in this context. The methods used include literature studies. The theoretical framework for this research encompasses social structure theory, social network theory, and anthropological approaches that emphasize an in-depth understanding of cultural practices. The discussion results indicate that rural communities rely on community solidarity and tradition in building household resilience, whereas urban communities prioritize individualistic social networks. The implications of this research provide insights for policymakers and social practitioners in designing more effective intervention programs to enhance household resilience, considering each community's unique characteristics. This study is expected to contribute to the further development of research in the fields of sociology and anthropology, as well as offer a new perspective on understanding social dynamics in Indonesia.

Authors: Salsabila Naia Ramadhani , Putri Herdiani Sulistyo , Hardianto Gatut , Kriswidyatomo Prihatma
Published: January 2025

Cesarean section is a surgical procedure involving an incision in the abdominal wall and uterus to deliver a baby. Based on urgency, it is classified into elective and emergency types. This procedure may trigger acute postoperative pain at the incision site, impacting both the mother and the baby. Effective pain management is essential for ensuring patient comfort and recovery. Identifying pain levels following cesarean delivery is crucial to determining appropriate interventions. Objective: To see the differences in pain experienced by patients undergoing elective and emergency cesarean sections at Dr. Soetomo General Hospital during the April-May 2024 period. Methods: An analytical study with a retrospective design. Results: The study included all patients undergoing elective and emergency cesarean sections at Dr. Soetomo General Hospital during April-May 2024. A total of 38 patients met the inclusion and exclusion criteria, with 25 patients undergoing emergency cesarean sections and 13 undergoing elective procedures. Postoperative pain intensity varied more widely among emergency cesarean patients, while all elective cesarean patients experienced mild pain. However, statistical analysis revealed no significant difference between the two groups. Conclusion: There is no significant difference in postoperative pain intensity between patients undergoing elective and emergency cesarean sections at Dr. Soetomo General Hospital during April-May 2024.
Mortality Rate and Clinical Manifestations of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Non-Nephritis Patients: A Literature Review
Authors: Aisya Sarah , Awalia Awalia
Published: January 2025

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects multiple organs and tissues throughout the body (Fava & Petri, 2019). The Lupus Foundation of America estimates approximately 1.5 million cases in the United States and at least 5 million worldwide, with 16,000 new cases diagnosed annually. About 50% of patients with SLE develop renal involvement (Indonesian Rheumatology Association, 2019). Among the various manifestations of SLE, renal complications, primarily lupus nephritis, are the most prevalent and severe. These complications significantly contribute to the morbidity and mortality associated with the disease (Ocampo-Piraquive et al., 2018). Therefore, researchers are interested in conducting research of other clinical manifestations and the mortality rate of SLE. This review is expected to be useful for enriching knowledge about the morbidity and mortality of SLE non-nephritis. However, further research is needed with more comprehensive variables to determine the risk factors for SLE, the relationship between comorbidities and mortality in SLE patients, and survival in SLE patients.
Nifedipine Effectiveness in Treating Hypertension Disorders of Pregnancy: A Literature Review
Authors: Fitri Riza Salsabila , Ardiana Meity
Published: January 2025

Hypertension Disorders of Pregnancy (HDP), defined by systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg or diastolic ≥90 mmHg, is a leading cause of maternal and fetal mortality, with severe cases marked by systolic ≥160 mmHg or diastolic ≥110 mmHg. HDP leads to significant complications such as preeclampsia, HELLP syndrome, and long-term cardiovascular risks for mothers. Management of HDP is crucial, and nifedipine, a calcium channel blocker, is commonly used as a first-line treatment due to its rapid onset and effectiveness in reducing blood pressure. Studies show nifedipine lowers blood pressure faster and is more tolerable than other antihypertensives like labetalol and hydralazine. However, it can cause side effects such as tachycardia, headache, and potential fetal complications, including lower birth weight. Despite these risks, nifedipine remains a preferred treatment option for managing HDP.
Effects of Stress on Blood Pressure: A Literature Review
Authors: Oei Eugenia Richita , Sari Dewi Ratna , Setiawan Hayuris Kinandita , Bestari Damba
Published: January 2025

Background: Stress disrupts homeostasis, triggering adaptive responses that can become maladaptive with prolonged exposure, leading to conditions like hypertension. Chronic stress elevates sympathoadrenal activity and stress hormones, contributing to vascular tone and hypertension, a major global health concern. In Indonesia, hypertension prevalence rose to 34.1% in 2018, particularly among young adults. Objective: This review explores stress effects and mechanisms linking stress to blood pressure. Method: Collecting the data and information from Google Scholar, PubMed, and ScienceDirect with a total of 22 pieces of literature using keywords like “effects”, “stress”, and “blood pressure”. Result: The review highlights that distress and sustress disrupt homeostasis, adversely affecting blood pressure. Acute stress temporarily raises blood pressure through the “fight or flight” response involving the sympathetic nervous system and HPA axis, while chronic stress causes sustained hypertension via elevated cortisol, inflammation, and circadian disruption. Gender differences, with women showing oxytocin-mediated buffering and men’s heightened sympathoadrenal reactivity, underscore the need for effective stress management to reduce cardiovascular risks.
A magyarországi lakosság környezetvédelemmel kapcsolatos fizetési hajlandóságának elemzése az ISSP és az EVS felmérései alapján
Authors: Nistor Laura , Bálint Gyöngyvér
Published: January 2025

Tanulmányunkban az International Social Survey Programme (ISSP) 1993-as, 2020-as és a European Values Survey (EVS) 1991–2017 felmérései alapján vizsgáljuk a környezetvédelemmel kapcsolatos fizetési hajlandóságot Magyarországon. Elemzésünk célja, hogy feltárja a fizetési hajlandóság trendjének alakulását és a hajlandósággal összefüggő egyéni szintű háttérváltozókat. Az eredmények azt mutatják, hogy a vizsgált periódusban csökkent a magyarországiak környezetvédelemmel kapcsolatos fizetési hajlandósága. Az ISSP 2020 és az EVS 2017 adatain a szakirodalom alapján megfogalmazott hipotézisek mentén, logisztikus regressziós módszerrel vizsgáljuk a környezetvédelemmel kapcsolatos fizetési hajlandóságot befolyásoló tényezőket. Az EVS egyetlen, az ISSP három kérdésben vizsgálja a fizetési hajlandóságot. A három kérdést külön-külön, majd egy kumulatív változóvá alakítva is elemezzük. A regressziós modellek eredményei egyszerre jeleznek hasonlóságokat és különbségeket. Összességében nézve, a környezetvédelmi fizetési hajlandóság egy gazdasági helyzetbe ágyazott specifikus diszpozíció, kifejezéséhez nem elegendőek a környezetvédelemmel kapcsolatos pozitív attitűdök, a kérdés gazdasági fejlődést is feltételez, amiért a válaszadók a környezet bizonyos aspektusait is képesek feláldozni. A magasabb iskolázottság és jövedelem, a bizalom különböző formái, a posztmaterialista értékrend, a környezettudatosság ugyancsak növeli a fizetési hajlandóságot, és beigazolja ilyen irányú hipotéziseinket A klímatudatosság szignifikánsan növeli a fizetési hajlandóság egyes dimenzióit, általában véve viszont még túl távolinak tűnik ahhoz, hogy fizetési diszpozíciókra bírja a válaszadókat.
Az energiaátmenet és örökségvédelem párhuzamos narratívái és konfliktusai egy kertvárosi munkástelep diszkurzív kontextusában
Authors: Horzsa Gergely
Published: January 2025

Dolgozatom egy esettanulmány segítségével azt mutatja be, hogy milyen módon strukturálódik egy nagyvárosi lokalitásban az energiaátmenet kérdése, és hogyan kerül konfliktusba örökségvédelmi szempontokkal. Az esettanulmány terepe egy magyarországi nagyvárosi, egy- és kétszintes, iker- és társasházakból álló, az 1945 előtti időszakban épült munkástelep, amelynek fontos az építészeti értéke. A dolgozat tudományos relevanciáját az adja, hogy a fenntartható energiahasználat, a megújuló energia kérdéseivel kapcsolatos társadalmi attitűdök és cselekvések kutatása szegényes a hazai társadalomtudományi szakirodalomban, miközben olyan, egyébként jelentős társadalmi relevanciájú témakörrel, mint az energiaközösségek, egyáltalán nem foglalkozik a magyar szociológia. A kutatás 12, az örökségvédelem, illetve az energiaátmenet kérdéseivel foglalkozó helyi civil aktivistával készített félig strukturált interjún alapul. A kutatás eredményeképp megállapítom, hogy az örökségvédelemhez az esztétikum fogalmai, a hely szellemének a tisztelete, a mozdulatlanság és a nyűg fogalmai kapcsolódnak, az energiaátmenethez pedig a praktikum, a pénzügyi megtérülés, az öngondoskodás, a természeti és szociális kihívások megoldásának lehetősége. A két fogalomkészlet sok esetben összekapcsolódik: abban, hogy mindkettő technológiaorientált, helyi hagyományokhoz kötődik, átlengi egy bizonyos mértékű pesszimizmus, ami pedig egy újabb közös pontból: abból fakad, hogy küzdelmes, helyesnek címkézett célért történő civil munka erőfeszítése, miközben a helyi és országos hatóságok a szembenállás feloldása megoldásának gátjait jelentik.
Vannak-e értékfüggetlen klímapolitikai szakértők és válaszok?
Authors: Varjú Viktor
Published: January 2025

Kétségtelen, hogy a klímaváltozás ma már a társadalomtudományokban is kiemelten kezelt téma. Számos hazai és nemzetközi kutatás tárja fel a klímaváltozáshoz való viszonyulásokat kvantitatív és kvalitatív módszerekkel egyaránt. Jelen tanulmány arra vállalkozik, hogy bemutassa azt, hogy a hazai klímaszakértők milyen szempontokkal, értékekkel kapcsolódnak össze, amikor klímaszakértőként reprezentálják magukat. Továbbá ezek az összekapcsolódások – különös tekintettel a klímaváltozással összefüggő politikai kapcsolódásokra – hogyan befolyásolják a klímaváltozás (mint válság) értelmezési kereteit. A kutatás egy 30 fős szakértői interjúsorozatra épül. A 30-60 perc közötti strukturált interjúk 2021-ben készültek a civil szférában, az önkormányzatoknál, a kutatói szférában és az államigazgatásban dolgozó klímaszakértőkkel, az ország minden részéből. A vizsgálat három réteg mentén történik. A tanulmány egyszerre elemzi a szakértők klímaváltozásról alkotott konstrukcióit, perspektíváját a (hazai társadalmi szereplők) klímaváltozáshoz való viszonyulásáról, valamint vizsgálja a szakértők (konstrukciót alkotók) társadalmi, „hovatartozási” mintázatát és annak befolyásoló hatását. A kutatás tanulsága, hogy a hazai szakértők értékválasztása nem homogén, ugyanakkor klímaszakértői mivoltukat megőrzik. A napi politika diskurzusba történő bevitele azonban kimozdítja a szakértőket pozíciójukból, és a politikai hovatartozás erősen befolyásoló tényezője lesz a szakpolitikai konstrukcióalkotásnak.

Published: January 2025

A tanulmány kapcsolódik a fenntarthatóság tárgyában folyó társadalomtudományi kutatásokhoz. Keresi ugyanis azoknak az attitűdöknek a gyökereit, amelyek rávilágíthatnak annak a hátterére, hogy az emberek miért döntenek fenntarthatóbb fogyasztási gyakorlatok mellett. Azokat a kapcsolatokat keressük, amelyek magukban foglalják a természet iránt érzett felelősség, környezettudatosság, beleértve az éghajlatváltozással kapcsolatos tudatosságot, a gondoskodás etikáját és a nemek közötti egyenlőségre vonatkozó értékeket. Az elemzés adatai a HUN-REN TK Szociológia Intézetben Fenntartható fogyasztási mintázatok, viselkedési stratégiák és tudáshasználat a magyar társadalomban c. NKFIH pályázat keretében felvett keresztmetszeti felmérésből származnak. Penalizált, lineáris, LASSO-regresszió alkalmazásával vizsgáltuk a természet iránt érzett felelősséggel asszociatív kapcsolatba állítható változókat. Megállapítottuk, hogy a hazai szakirodalomban eddig fel nem tárt összefüggés van a gondoskodói etika, a nemek egyenlőségtudatos értelmezése és a környezettudatosság között. A közölt adatok nemzetközi összehasonlíthatóságának lehetőségeire is kitérünk.

The paper is devoted to the development and implementation of intelligent systems based on deep neural networks for detecting the level of mammary gland pathologies. The relevance and importance of the topic is due to the high morbidity and mortality among women, in particular, in the Republic of Kazakhstan, from breast cancer, which occupies one of the leading places in the structure of oncological diseases. Early detection of pathologies is a key factor in successful treatment; however, traditional diagnostic methods often require significant resources and are dependent on human factors. The use of artificial intelligence can improve diagnostic accuracy, reduce the workload on radiologists, and minimize the likelihood of missing early signs of the disease. The article discusses the architecture of deep neural networks adapted for analyzing mammographic images and provides a comparison of the efficiency of the proposed methods with traditional approaches. The study results demonstrate high sensitivity and specificity of automated systems in detecting both benign and malignant tumors, making them promising for clinical use.

В статье представлен методологический анализ современных требований и подходов к разработке гибридных инерциально-спутниковых навигационных систем (ГИСНС), которые обеспечивают высокую точность и надежность в условиях ограниченного или прерывистого доступа к спутниковым сигналам. В отличие от традиционных систем, ГИСНС объединяет данные инерциальных сенсоров и спутниковых систем, что не только компенсирует накопление ошибок, характерных для инерциальных измерений, но и значительно увеличивает автономность системы, позволяя ей эффективно работать в условиях сложной внешней среды. Целью исследования стало формулирование комплексных требований к информационному, техническому, метрологическому, математическому и программному обеспечению, необходимых для оптимизации работы ГИСНС. Основным достижением исследования является разработка численных алгоритмов, ориентированных на минимизацию погрешностей инерциальных сенсоров и адаптацию к динамическим изменениям, что в результате улучшает точность и стабильность системы при длительных автономных режимах. Также подчеркивается необходимость интеграции ГИСНС в информационно-измерительные комплексы (ИИК), что обеспечит высокую универсальность применения и позволит снизить погрешности на различных этапах работы системы, включая предстартовую подготовку, калибровку и эксплуатацию в условиях помех. Применение этих решений расширяет возможности ГИСНС, делая их пригодными для широкого использования в условиях сложных навигационных задач.

A educação financeira é crucial para o desenvolvimento de hábitos de poupança e investimento, especialmente entre os jovens, que são mais suscetíveis à desinformação no ambiente digital. Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar o nível de conhecimento dos jovens brasileiros sobre criptomoedas e investimentos digitais, além de entender como a falta de informações impacta suas decisões financeiras. A pesquisa utilizou uma abordagem exploratória e quantitativa, com questionários aplicados por meio de uma plataforma digital para coletar dados diretamente do público-alvo. Os resultados mostraram que, embora haja um crescente interesse por criptomoedas, a maioria dos jovens apresenta conhecimento limitado ou superficial sobre o assunto, geralmente obtido de redes sociais e fontes não especializadas. A ausência de educação formal em finanças se revela como uma barreira significativa para a adoção de práticas financeiras responsáveis. Além disso, a falta de conhecimento adequado pode resultar em decisões financeiras equivocadas, comprometendo a adoção de hábitos de investimento consciente. Com base nesses achados, conclui-se que é essencial investir em programas de educação financeira que incluam o uso e a compreensão das criptomoedas, visando capacitar os jovens a tomarem decisões mais informadas e seguras. A implementação dessas iniciativas pode diminuir a desinformação e promover a sustentabilidade financeira a longo prazo.

Abstract. Changes in reproductive status affect the perineal muscles. These modifications enable the noninvasive diagnosis of pyometra and mastitis in beef cows. This study aims to assess the thickness and intensity of the coccygeus and levator ani muscles in beef cows affected by the reproductive disorders of pyometra and mastitis. The sample consisted of 59 Bali beef cows, 75 Madura beef cows, and 71 Ongole cross beef cows. The cervical organs, uterine corpus, uterine cornua, and placenta were visualized using transrectal imaging. The resulting images were categorized into two groups: a control group (with nonpregnant nonpartum, pregnant, and nonpregnant postpartum statuses) and a group with reproductive disorders. The coccygeus and levator ani muscles were visualized using transcutaneous imaging. Pregnant Bali beef cows have thicker coccygeus muscles than nonpregnant nonpartum Bali beef cows (P<0.05). Pregnant Madura beef cows have thicker coccygeus muscles than nonpregnant nonpartum and nonpregnant postpartum Madura beef cows (P<0.05). Pregnant Madura beef cows have thicker levator ani muscles than nonpregnant postpartum Madura beef cows (P<0.05). Nonpregnant nonpartum and pregnant Ongole cross beef cows have thicker coccygeus and levator ani muscles than nonpregnant nonpartum and pregnant Bali and Madura beef cows. For pyometra, Bali, Madura, and Ongole cross beef cows have thicker coccygeus and levator ani muscles than endometritis, nonpregnant nonpartum, pregnant and nonpregnant postpartum Bali, Madura, and Ongole cross beef cows. In the control group, only the levator ani muscle of pregnant Bali beef cows had a significant intensity compared to nonpregnant postpartum Bali beef cows (P<0.05). The muscle intensity of the coccygeus and levator ani of nonpregnant nonpartum, pregnant, and nonpregnant postpartum Bali beef cows was higher than nonpregnant nonpartum, pregnant, and nonpregnant postpartum groups for Madura and Ongole cross beef cows. For pyometra, Bali, Madura, and Ongole cross beef cows had higher coccygeus muscle intensity than nonpregnant nonpartum and pregnant Bali, Madura, and Ongole cross beef cows. Reproductive status and disorders affect the diameter of the reproductive tract and plecentome, which affect changes in sonogram thickness and intensity of the coccygeus and levator ani muscles.

Abstract. This study was conducted to evaluate the impacts of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs), zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs), and a combination of SeNPs and chromium (Cr) or ZnONPs and Cr on growth, caecal microbiota, antioxidant capacity in blood and liver tissue, and inflammatory cytokines in heat-stressed rabbits. A total of 100 newly weaned APRI rabbits were randomly divided into five homogeneous groups. A basal diet containing no feed additives (0 g per kg diet) was given to the first group, and the second, third, fourth, and fifth groups were given a diet supplemented with 0.3 mg SeNPs, 20 mg ZnONPs, 0.3 mg SeNPs and 1.5 mg Cr, and 20 mg ZnONPs and 1.5 mg Cr per kg diet, respectively. At 10 and 14 weeks of age, the live body weight (LBW) of rabbits was higher (P < 0.05) in all treatments, while LBW at 10 weeks of age was higher (P < 0.05) in combination groups. All treatments increased daily body weight gain in the age intervals of 6–10 and 6–14 weeks (P<0.05). Daily body weight gain was increased (P < 0.05) in combination groups at the age interval of 6–10 weeks. Feed intake was only increased for rabbits in the ZnONP–Cr group at age intervals of 10–14 weeks. The feed conversion ratio was significantly improved in all treatments at 6–10 and 6–14 weeks of age compared to the control. Haemoglobin was increased (P<0.05) in diets supplemented with ZnONPs and SeNP–Cr or ZnONP–Cr combinations. The platelet count was only increased (P < 0.05) by the ZnONP–Cr combination compared to other groups. Serum total proteins, total antioxidant capacity, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, IgA, IgM, nitric oxide, and lysozyme were increased, while serum total cholesterol and triglycerides, alanine transaminase, malondialdehyde, myeloperoxidase, tumour necrosis factor (TNF-α), and interleukin 4 (IL-4) were reduced by all treatments. The total antioxidant capacity in liver tissue was higher, and malondialdehyde was lower in all treatment groups. Albumin was significantly increased, while glucose, creatinine, and urea were significantly decreased in response to ZnONPs and SeNP–Cr or ZnONP–Cr combinations compared with the other groups. Dietary addition of SeNPs–Cr or ZnONPs–Cr significantly reduced interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) concentration. The caecal activity was increased, while the Escherichia coli (E. coli) count decreased considerably in all treatments compared to the control. In conclusion, SeNPs or ZnONPs with chromium as trace elements of growing rabbits can be recommended as an effective intervention to mitigate the negative impacts of heat stress (HS) by enhancing growth performance, promoting metabolic processes, and boosting immunity.

Abstract. We present our stand-alone data analysis application for 230Th/U dating with multi-collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (MC-ICP-MS). The Python-based algorithm is equipped with a graphical user interface (GUI) and comprises raw data treatment, corrections, age calculation, and error estimation. Our underlying measurement protocol employs a combination of Faraday cups (FCs) and secondary electron multipliers (SEMs), and the software allows for different detector layouts for the measurement of the least abundant isotopes 234U, 230Th, and 229Th. We especially focus on features that ensure reproducibility and enable user-friendly reanalysis of measurements such as customized calculation constants with templates. Result files are saved automatically and contain all relevant settings used. We demonstrate the relevance of adequate data outlier treatment and generally recommend using the median instead of the mean of calculated ratios. The performance of our evaluation software is demonstrated by a case study from a Puerto Rican stalagmite with growth phases from the modern era to 40 kyr old. The majority of the obtained ages reach uncertainties in the range of 0.3 %–0.6 %, underlining the capability of our measurement protocol.
Utilizing of Nanometal Oxides for Treatment of Refinery Product Water: A Review
Authors: Mohamed Ahmed
Published: January 2025

The complicated effluent stream known as refinery wastewater is produced by the refining of petroleum and contains a range of pollutants. This complex composition contains oil, organic molecules and heavy metals, where poses significant obstacles to conventional treatment procedures including biological processes, filtration and sedimentation. Therefore, modern and effective solutions are being provided by the methods of advanced treatment such as the application of Nano-oxides, advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), and membrane filtration. Synthetic nanoparticles known as Nano-oxides, which include nickel oxide, magnesium oxide, copper oxide, and zinc oxide, hold promising ability to treating of wastewater which generated from operations of refining. One of the studies synthesized and incorporated Nano-oxides into refinery wastewater (RPW) to improve the turbidity of water, electrical conductivity, and pH. Manganese oxide nanoparticles were particularly useful in reducing turbidity because they have special chemical properties. In general, Nano-oxides show ability on improving the refinery wastewater treatment efficiency, legal compliance in the petroleum refining sector, and supporting environmental sustainability.

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar os determinantes da geração “nem-nem” por sexo no Brasil urbano. Utilizou-se o Modelo Logit Multinível para o ano de 2010, com dois níveis hierárquicos: individual (nível 1) e municipal (nível 2). Nesse caso, o uso dessa metodologia se justifica pelo fato de a pesquisa procurar destacar os efeitos do contexto social onde esses jovens estão inseridos. Os resultados mostram que a incidência de “nem-nem” está associada a municípios de baixo IDHM, com maior população economicamente ativa desocupada. Além do mais, aumenta entre pessoas com ausência de afiliação religiosa e mulheres negras. Outro ponto importante é que a ocorrência de “nem-nem” no domicílio potencializa a probabilidade de outros jovens apresentarem o mesmo comportamento. Finalmente, ter irmão no domicílio e conviver com a mãe diminui a probabilidade de ser “nem-nem” juntamente com a escolaridade do próprio indivíduo e da pessoa de referência no domicílio.

Published: January 2025

En este documento se estiman los efectos de la pandemia de COVID-19 sobre la producción sectorial de México durante el segundo trimestre de 2020 mediante un modelo econométrico de corte transversal, que distingue el impacto del choque de oferta (restricciones sanitarias) del de demanda (caída de empleo e ingreso). En los resultados principales se encuentra que el choque de oferta tuvo un impacto más severo sobre servicios recreativos y turísticos, transporte, construcción y comercio, en tanto que el de demanda tuvo un efecto más generalizado. Estos resultados sugieren que la producción no se recuperará plenamente mientras existan restricciones sanitarias provocadas por la persistencia de la pandemia.

Stunting is a growth and development disorder in children caused by chronic malnutrition and repeated infections. Stunting has significant short- and long-term impacts and is one of the major health issues currently faced by Indonesia. The prevalence of stunting in North Sumatra Province is 18.9%, and the provincial government aims to reduce this prevalence to 14% by 2024. This study aims to compare the performance of several supervised machine learning methods in predicting stunting prevalence in North Sumatra Province. The data used is secondary data from 2021 to 2023, covering 33 districts/cities in the province. This study evaluates three machine learning models: Support Vector Regression (SVR), Decision Tree, and Random Forest, using evaluation metrics such as Mean Squared Error (MSE) and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE). The analysis results show that Random Forest provides the most accurate and consistent predictions, with lower MSE, MAE, RMSE, and MAPE values compared to the other models in most areas. Decision Tree yields good results in some regions but tends to produce higher errors in certain cases. SVR exhibits a more varied performance, with some regions showing higher prediction errors. Overall, Random Forest is the superior model for predicting district/city-level data, although model selection should be tailored to the data characteristics and application needs

The development of technology for control systems is increasing, especially to help people with disabilities and facilitate the performance of health workers. Where it is required to maintain the level of sterilization of equipment in hospitals. Eye tracking technology in the last few decades has developed very rapidly. This control system using eye tracking technology can be done with eye movements for those who experience mobility problems. This research aims to develop a light control system through eye activity using the Mediapipe framework from Google. In this study, 2 lamps (A and B) were used, each with a light intensity of 10W. In lamp A, the light intensity can be controlled by turning the light on or off using the blink of the right eye and the blink of the left eye, while lamp B can adjust the intensity of the light by opening both eyes (right and left). Research on a lighting control system using the eye tracking method with an image processing system has been successfully carried out. All data generated is based on activity, distance, eye position on the camera and differences in participant backgrounds. Apart from that, a system that can work well means consistent results are obtained. However, based on distance, the system can read with precision at distances of 50 cm and 60 cm.

Authors: Shatnataphat Chattawat
Published: January 2025

This research aims to: 1) understand democracy's fundamentals in Thailand; 2) identify sources of democratic understanding and interpretation; 3) study the essentials for establishing a stable democratic system. A mixed-method approach was used, combining qualitative and quantitative methods. In-depth interviews and document analysis were conducted, alongside a survey of 1,165 Bangkok citizens. The study found that the general population has a basic understanding of democracy, emphasizing regular elections as a key component. Income significantly affects understanding, while factors like sex, age, education, and marital status do not. The foundations of democracy, particularly freedom and participation, are well comprehended. However, not all elements are equally understood. A sustainable democratic system prioritizes just governance. These findings are crucial for developing policies and strategies to enhance democratic understanding and support in Thailand.
