Authors: Akifa Begum  , Sridevi G
Published: September 2020

The circadian rhythm is a biological rhythm that produces physical, psychological and behavioural changes in a living organism, and it follows a daily cycle. This cycle depends on the response of the organism to light and darkness in the environment. The aim of the study was to analyse and evaluate the influence of circadian rhythm on individual differences in morningness-eveningness attitude among the normal healthy subjects. Morningness eveningness questionnaire is a standard tool to assess sleep, wakefulness alertness, self-awareness and best time activity of the individual either in the morning time or evening time. This questionnaire was self-administered, and it consisted of 10 questions and was circulated via google forms. The results revealed that a majority of 85% of the participants are evening types of persons and the significance level was a p-value < 0.05 of the chi-square test. The present study assessed the influence of the circadian rhythm on the morningness-eveningness scale, and results revealed that most of the participants were alarm dependant, had difficulty in waking up. They were very active in the evening and went to bed very late. So, the study concluded that the majority of participants were evening type of person.

Published: September 2020

Fractures of the middle third of the face have increased in number over the past two decades. Trauma to the facial area results in injuries not only to dental structures but also maxillomandibular fractures. In addition, these injuries frequently occur in combination with injuries of other parts of the body. The etiology of these fractures have various causes, such as traffic accidents, falls, assaults, sports, and others. The aim of the study was to assess the knowledge and awareness about LeFort I fracture among undergraduate dental students. A custom made questionnaire comprising of 10 questions to assess the knowledge about LeFort I fracture was formulated and circulated among 100 undergraduate dental students. The responses were then subjected to statistical analysis. Among 100 undergraduate dental students, 52% of them were aware of the types of maxillofacial fractures, and LeFort I fracture is a maxillary fracture, 34% of them have reported that Le Fort I fracture causes disruption of the cribriform plate of the ethmoid bone,35% of them reported that LeFort I fracture might be associated with cerebrospinal fluid leak and 25% of them were still unaware that floating palate is the typical clinical presentation of LeFort I fracture. Also, only 30% were aware that intermaxillary fixation is the management of LeFort I fracture. The present study suggests that among undergraduate dental students, the knowledge about the clinical presentation and the management of LeFort I fracture is inadequate.

Published: September 2020

Chlorogenic Acid (CA) is the formation of an ester established among caffeic and quinic acid. CA contains hydroxyl based groups over an aromatic moiety and exhibits very effective anticancer, antimutational and antioxidant activities. This survey was performed for assessing the awareness about antioxidant activities of CA amongst dental students. A cross-sectional survey was performed with a pretested questionnaire with ten questions disseminated among 100 dental students. The questionnaire assessed the awareness about CA therapy, their dietary sources, medicinal uses, antioxidant activity, anti ischaemic activity and free radical scavenging effect of chlorogenic acid. The responses were recorded and analyzed. 7% were aware of dietary sources,5% were aware of medical uses, 5% were aware of mechanisms of antioxidant activity, 4 % were aware of the anti ischaemic activity, and 5% were aware of the free radical scavenging effect of chlorogenic acid. Awareness about the usage of CA therapy is very less among dental students. Increased awareness programs and sensitization programs should be conducted to improve the awareness levels.

Published: September 2020

Objective. To characterize carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from patients treated at a hospital in Cumaná, Sucre, Venezuela.

Methods. This was a retrospective study conducted at the general hospital in Cumaná where 58 K. pneumoniae strains were analyzed for resistance to antimicrobials, specifically carbapenems, in January – June 2015. Production of metallo-β-lactamases and serine carbapenemases was determined by the double-disc synergy test, using EDTA-sodium mercaptoacetic acid and 3-aminophenyl boronic acid discs, respectively. Multiplex-PCR was used to detect genes coding for carbapenemases. Molecular typing using ERIC-PCR determined the presence of clones.

Results. Four strains of K. pneumoniae resistant to carbapenems were identified. Phenotypic methods for detection of metallo-β-lactamases and serine carbapenemases were positive, and PCR demonstrated the co-presence of blaNDM and blaKPC genes in all four strains. ERIC-PCR identified two clones circulating in the hospital.

Conclusions. Infection control strategies are needed at the central hospital in Cumaná and its surrounding areas to prevent the spread of these pathogens, especially given the high levels of migration from Venezuela to other countries in South America.

Genetic landscape clustering of a large DNA barcoding dataset reveals shared patterns of genetic divergence among freshwater fishes of the Maroni Basin
Authors: Papa Yvan , Le Bail Pierre Yves , Covain Raphael
Published: September 2020

The Maroni is one of the most speciose basins of the Guianas and hosts a
megadiverse freshwater fish community. Although taxonomical references
exist for both the Surinamese and Guyanese parts of the basin, these
lists were mainly based on morphological identification and there are
still taxonomical uncertainties concerning the status of several fish
species. Here we present a barcode dataset of 1,284 COI sequences from
199 freshwater fish species (68.86% of the total number of strictly
freshwater fishes from the basin) from 124 genera, 36 families, and 8
orders. DNA barcoding allowed for fast and efficient identification of
all specimens studied as well as unveiling a consequent cryptic
diversity, with the detection of 20 putative cryptic species and 5
species flagged for re-identification. In order to explore global
genetic patterns across the basin, genetic divergence landscapes were
computed for 128 species, showing a global trend of high genetic
divergence between the Surinamese south-west (Tapanahony and Paloemeu),
the Guianese south-east (Marouini, Litany, Tampok, Lawa…), and
the river mouth in the north. This could be explained either by lower
levels of connectivity between these three main parts or by the exchange
of individuals with the surrounding basins. A new method of ordination
of genetic landscapes successfully assigned species into cluster groups
based on their respective pattern of genetic divergence across the
Maroni Basin: genetically homogenous species across the basin were
effectively discriminated from species showing high spatial genetic
fragmentation and possible lower capacity for dispersal.

Prevalence of and risk factors for depression among female Syrian refugees and Jordanians with chronic disease: a pilot study
Authors: Sharp Madison , Parpia Alyssa , Ahram Mamoun , Mahmoud Refqi , Khoshnood Kaveh
Published: September 2020

Background: Chronic disease and depression are primary contributors to morbidity among displaced and local populations. Aims: This study aims to address the prevalence for and risk factors of comorbid depression among Jordanian and Syrian women with known chronic disease. Methods: To provide evidence for mental health intervention planning, we conducted a cross-sectional survey to investigate determinants of depression among female Syrian refugees and Jordanians with chronic disease living in Amman. A total of 272 female Syrian refugees and Jordanians with chronic disease were recruited from 4 clinics across Amman from June to August 2017. We compared demographic and health characteristics and depression level and identified predictors of depression via multivariable ordinal regression. Results: Moderate to high levels of depression were reported in 55.9% of the participants, with a prevalence of 41.1% among Jordanians and 70.6% among Syrians. Syrians with chronic disease had 2.73 times greater odds of higher levels of depression than their Jordanian peers. After adjusting for age, income, spouse employment status, gastrointestinal or genitourinary disorder status, and perceived self-efficacy, Syrians were not at significantly greater odds of reporting higher levels of depression. Risk factors for higher depression levels included having an unemployed spouse, diagnosis of gastrointestinal or genitourinary disorder and low perceived self-efficacy. Conclusion: Depression is frequently comorbid with chronic physical conditions and has a deleterious impact on health status. Mental health interventions and chronic disease management tailored to differences among local and displaced communities may reduce disease burden and disability.

Published: September 2020

This paper outlines the effect of REAL model in enhancing students' metacognitive abilities on abstract physics topics, such as electricity and magnetism. The study employed a pre-test and post-test quasi-experimental design with a control group. The experiment group (n = 30) was taught using the REAL model while control group (n = 30) was taught using the traditional method. REAL model includes recognizing the concept of targets through analogies, explaining concepts with multiple representations, applying concepts to sample solutions, and looking back at self-weakness through reflection self. Pre-test and post-tests were given at the beginning and at the end of the treatment for each group. Data were analyzed by descriptive and inferential methods. The results showed that REAL model has a positive effect in increasing students’ metacognitive ability shown by significant n-gain difference between experiment and control groups. During the study, students also felt motivated and more confident in solving physics problems shown by more than 80% of them responded positively to the learning model.

Published: September 2020

This work focuses on the 100% replacement of river sand with quarry dust in the production of concrete. Two types of concrete were produced (concrete made with river sand and that made with quarry dust as fine aggregate), the concretes produces were cast into beams and cured for 28 days. The flexural strengths of the concrete beams cast was determine at 28 day strength. At 28 days target strength the maximum flexural strength of concrete made with river sand as fine aggregate is 5.375111N/mm2 and minimum flexural strength is 2.2155N/mm2, for the concrete made with quarry dust as fine aggregate the maximum flexural strength is 2.567 N/mm2. The maximum value of 2.567 N/mm2 for concrete made with quarry dust as fine aggregate is higher than the minimum value of 2.2155N/mm2 for concrete made with river sand as fine aggregate. With this result it shows that quarry dust is a good substitute to river sand in the production of concrete.

Published: September 2020

The importation of refractory materials is one of the biggest challenges industries faced in third world countries, of which Nigerian is one of them. The addition of palm bunch ash to clay in the production of clay bricks is one of the ways refractory materials are produced. The clay used here was Nsu clay. This work looked at the compressive strength of refractory bricks which is one of the properties of refractory materials. The work eliminates the traditional methods of trial and error and the rigorous mathematical analysis associated with the formation of some regression models in the prediction of some properties of refractory bricks. This was achieved by the use of Surface Response method.  A regression model to predict the strength of a refractory brick was formulated, the model was found to be adequate based of the analysis of variance in which the Rsq, Rsq (adjusted) and Rsq (prediction) were found to be adequate, hence the model can be used to predict the compressive strength of refractory bricks. The optimal compressive strength was found to be 30.1513KN/m2 at a ratio of 1:0.2570 at a water/clay ratio of 4.2590. Also, from the results it can be seen that the compressive strength of bricks decrease with increase in the percentages of palm bunch ash.

Published: September 2020

Drawing on 24 in-depth semi-structured interviews with exonerees, this study explores the post-release experiences and struggles upon reentry. Findings highlight the urgent need to provide support to individuals who have been victimized by the very system that is supposed to protect their fundamental rights. It is essential that more customized holistic approaches be implemented to address the wide range of often-interrelated practical, social and psychological issues. Furthermore, services should be provided immediately upon release and be offered indefinitely as hardships often linger well after release. Ultimately, the goal of this paper is to encourage action toward comprehensive support after wrongful imprisonment.

Published: September 2020

Masyarakat Indonesia  sampai saat ini terus mengalami perubahan-perubahan yang sangat pesat, baik itu perubahan kecil maupun perubahan besar. Perubahan ini terjada diberbagai bidang. Kita perlu belajar pada sejarah bahwa perubahan zaman tidak bisa dilawan dan dilarang. Berkaca pada perjalanan sejarah bahwa kemajuan zaman, dan semua yang terkait teknologi tidak bisa dilawan. Jika kita bertahan pada pilihan konvensional, maka justru akan terkubur, terlindas oleh zaman. Perubahan-perubahan zaman membawa setiap lapisan masyarakat pada kemajuan Ilmu Pengetahuan dan Teknologi (IPTEK). Namun dengan adanya kemajuan Ilmu Pengetahuan dan Teknologi (IPTEK) yang diharapkan mampu menciptakan masyarakat yang madani khusunya dikalangan remaja dan setiap anak bangsa, ternyata malah justru telah mengikis nilai-nilai kesopanan, ajaran baik tentang perbuatan dan kelakuan (akhlaq) atau sering kali kita sebut sebagai moral. Penomena kemorosotan moral dikalangan remaja anak bangsa dewasa ini sudah sangat mengkhawatirkan. Maka, untuk mengatasi kemerosotan moral yang sudah melanda anak bangsa tiada lain upaya yang harus dilakukan yaitu salah satunya dengan menanamkan pendidikan karakter baik di lingkungan keluarga, sekolah, dan masyarakat sedini mungkin. Hal ini penting dilakukan karena apabila tidak dilakukan sedini mungkin, maka akan sangat sulit menanamkan karakter yang positif ketika mereka beranjak dewasa.

The analysis was carried out qualitatively.Based on the results of data analysis, it can be concluded that: 1) Notary who has been appointed in an office whose position is different from his area of office as a PPAT is temporarily dismissed from his position for violating the obligations and prohibition of office. Regulations regarding this matter are expressly regulated in UUJN. The person concerned is no longer entitled to make a deed, meaning that he no longer has the authority to make any deed, so if he turns out to still make a deed, then the deed concerned only has the power of proof as a deed under the hand. Whereas the PPAT who is appointed in a position whose position is different from his position as a Notary, causing the PPAT in question automatically stops automatically as a PPAT and for that reason, no dismissal decision is needed. Regulations regarding this matter are explicitly regulated in Government regulation number 24 of 2016 on Government regulation number 38 of 1998 on PPAT Position Regulations. 2) Notary / PPAT Actions and Steps that deal with the problems mentioned above must immediately submit an application to the relevant agency (DEPKUMHAM/BPN) to be able to adjust the area of office. In the event that the formation for the area concerned is closed, the relevant person must wait until the formation for the area is opened. In order to continue to carry out his position concerned must choose his work area as a Notary or work area as PPAT. Regulations regarding this matter are explicitly regulated in Government regulation number 24 of 2016 on Government regulation number 38 of 1998 on PPAT Position Regulations.Keywords: Legal Impact; Land Deed Official; Position; Notary.

Authors: Alia Maerani Ira
Published: September 2020

This study aims to find out to know the form of violations and witnesses to the notary position based on Law No. 2 of 2014 concerning the Position of Notary and the perspective of Islamic justice in viewing a notary who is indicated to have committed a crime in connection with an authentic deed he made.            This research uses normative law research or dogmatic law research using the doctrinal method. Normative legal research includes research on legal principles, research on legal systematics, research on vertical and horizontal synchronization stages, comparison of law and legal history.            This research concludes that the notary public is a public official who makes an authentic deed and has the authority as regulated in Article 15,16, 17 of Law No. 2 of 2014 concerning the Position of Notary Public. The notary is obliged to act on trust; honest; independent; objective and safeguard the interests of parties involved in legal actions. Notaries in carrying out their duties and positions if convicted of violations, may be subject to sanctions or sanctions in the form of civil, administrative, and notary code of ethics in accordance with Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 2 of 2014 concerning Notary Positions. Even so, the Notary Position Law does not regulate criminal sanctions against Notaries. Whereas in practice there is an opportunity for a legal action or violation by a notary related to an authentic deed he made that can be qualified as a criminal offense. A notary who is indicated to have committed a crime in carrying out his authority as a Public Official, of course, must be a concern of the government and law enforcement because the law must be upheld against anyone who commits indiscriminate violations. This rule is a manifestation of the principle of "equality before the law" (equality before the law) which is a fundamental element in the concept of the rule of law. Honesty values; keep the mandate; fair; and this objective is synergistic with the values of justice in an Islamic perspective that promotes justice and problems. Described in the Qur'an An-Nisa verses 58 and 135 and QS. Al Ma'idah verse 8. Islamic law also regulates justice in recording a deed, for example just in recording accounts receivable debts (Q.S. Al Baqoroh: 282)Keywords: Islamic Perspective; Justice; Notary Public; Perpetrators; Criminal Act
