Published: May 2021

The medical record department is one of the most important parts in the hospital's effort to provide excellent service to patients. The medical records section is indeed a part that is not directly involved in patient care, but other health workers need a medical record section in order to serve patients. The purpose of this study was to analyze internal customer satisfaction related to the service of the medical records department at Muhammadiyah Hospital Ponorogo. The research design used a descriptive quantitative research design. The sampling technique used was snowball sampling. The results showed that several obstacles were found, namely the speed of providing medical records, the accuracy of providing medical records, the management of KLPCM (Incomplete Filling Of Medical Records) and medical record officers who had medical record competence were still very limited. Improved services provided by the medical record department can increase internal customer satisfaction, and of course will have a direct impact on service to patients. nurses and hospital BPJS healthcare officers.

Published: May 2021

Diarrhea is still a health problem in the world, especially in developing countries. The World Health Organization (WHO) explained that the cause of death in infants and toddlers is diarrhea, which ranks second. Meanwhile, based on Indonesia's health profile in 2015, there were 18 outbreaks of diarrhea in 11 provinces, 18 districts / cities, with 1,213 sufferers and 30 deaths (CFR 2.47%). Several factors related to the incidence of diarrhea are maternal care, birth weight and environmental sanitation. This study aims to determine the relationship between maternal parenting, birth weight and environmental sanitation with the incidence of diarrhea in children under five in Selagalas Village, the working area of ​​Cakranegara Health Center. This study used a cross-sectional quantitative design on 104 toddlers who were selected by systematic random sampling in three selected environments in Selagalas Village. Data were collected by structured interviews using questionnaires and observation sheets. Data analysis was carried out bivariately using logistic regression to see the relationship between family drinking water management and the incidence of diarrhea. 64.42% of children under five were found to have experienced diarrhea. The variable related to the incidence of diarrhea was the lack of drinking water management with a value of P = 0.03. The management of family drinking water is still lacking so it is necessary to make health promotion efforts for the family to improve the management of family drinking water that meets the requirements so that it can improve the behavior of a clean and healthy life.

Published: May 2021

DM management requires collaborative and integrated team involvement in working with patients to set goals and implement treatment for patients. The need for treatment to individuals with DM helps provide psychological support, psychomotor skills, promote self-management, and set goals for better and optimal outcomes. Therefore, in the care of DM patients, it is necessary to apply services that can help patients in undergoing treatment better, one of which is by applying clinical pathways. The design of this research is crossectional analytics. The variables of this study are the application of clinical pathways as independent variables as well as quality of service and patient satisfaction as dependent variables. The population of all dm gangrene patients in the General Surgery Department of RSUD RA Basoeni Gedeg Mojokerto was 137 patients in February - March 2020. Samples were taken with simple random sampling techniques as many as 105 respondents. The data was collected by questionnaire and processed using editing, coding, scoring and tabulating and tested with chi square test. The results of this study showed that partially and simultaneously independent variables influence the occurrence of dependent variables due to the value of < of 0.05. The application of clinical pathways can help patients know all forms of services that will be received from the beginning of the action until the patient returns home. Mechanism of application of clinical pathway will be a basis of communication that is built with good quality between hospital staff and patients so that patients will receive the maximum service and patients are satisfied with the service
La herramienta de transparencia en las noticias sobre la COVID-19 publicadas por el Diario Público durante los primeros 14 días del estado de alarma
Authors: Alonso-López Nadia , Terol-Bolinches Raúl
Published: May 2021

En la Era de la Posverdad cada vez es más complicado discernir entre aquellas informaciones que son reales y las que no. La proliferación de las noticias falsas ha llevado a los medios convencionales a mostrar el proceso de verificación de las informaciones publicadas, así como a la aparición de agencias de verificación de la información, en aras de una mayor transparencia y credibilidad. Con el inicio de la pandemia provocada por la COVID-19 el volumen de los bulos difundidos por las redes sociales y las aplicaciones de mensajería instantánea se incrementó de manera exponencial, con lo que se hizo más necesario el compromiso de veracidad de las informaciones publicadas en los medios. La presente investigación tiene como objetivo principal analizar el índice de transparencia de las noticias relacionadas con la COVID-19 y que fueron publicadas en el primer tramo del estado de alarma, los primeros 14 días tras el anuncio del presidente Pedro Sánchez hasta su primera renovación en el congreso. Tras un estudio previo, se ha optado analizar las informaciones del diario Público, que es el único que ofrece una herramienta de transparencia que muestra la trazabilidad de sus informaciones, relacionándolas con algunos ítems o palabras clave.

Authors: Rizqi Fathi Alfinur , Utami Sri Nuryani
Published: May 2021

Populasi penduduk Indonesia diperkirakan akan mencapai 350 juta pada tahun 2045, mendorong Indonesia untuk meningkatkan ketersediaan pangan 3% setiap tahunnya. Program Upaya Khusus (Upsus) Padi Jagung Kedelai (Pajale), menjadi salah satu program unggulan pemerintah dalam menjawab tantangan ini. Di sisi lain, tekanan lingkungan memberikan batas jelas untuk melaksanakan proses budidaya pertanian berkelanjutan. Sebagaimana dua tujuan dari Sustainability Development Goals (SDGs) adalah menghentikan kelaparan dan kepastian akses terhadap air. Konsep air virtual (virtual water) hadir sebagai salah satu alternatif konsep berserta alat hitung air yang diperlukan dalam sebuah proses produksi pertanian. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengidentifikasi air virtual untuk komoditas padi, jagung, dan kedelai di wilayah Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta. Analisa dalam penelitian ini menghasilkan nilai tapak air yang terdiri dari blue water, green water, dan grey water. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan, bahwa water footprint tahunan kedelai merupakan yang tertinggi dengan 2.589 m3/ton disusul padi ladang, jagung, dan padi sawah sebesar 1.280 m3/ton; 844 m3/ton; 841 m3/ton. Hasil ini disebabkan oleh tingkat produktivitas yang semakin tinggi nilainya maka akan menghasil nilai water footprint akan semakin rendah. Pelaksanaan penelitian ini mengungkap faktor yang mempengaruhi jumlah air yang diperlukan untuk memproduksi komoditas pertanian. Pemilihan lokasi, kondisi iklim, jenis tanaman, teknik budidaya hingga penggunaan pupuk merupakan faktor yang perlu diperhatikan untuk dapat menekan penggunaan air dalam proses produksi pertanian. Dengan demikian, tujuan pelaksanaan budidaya pertanian yang berkelanjutan dapat terwujud.

Published: May 2021

Pengembangan sebuah Daerah Irigasi (DI) dilakukan untuk meningkatkan produktivitas hasil pertanian khususnya komoditas padi dan palawija. Produktivitas padi dan palawija dipengaruhi oleh kinerja irigasi, baik itu infrastuktur maupun pengelolaan irigasi. Pengelolaan operasi jaringan irigasi di DI Ciliman masih belum optimal akibat tidak adanya operasi dalam mengatur jumlah air yang masuk di setiap sadap, sehingga menyebabkan air masuk berlebihan di hulu sedangkan di hilir sering kali tidak mendapatkan air. Hal ini diperparah dengan kondisi ketersediaan air pada musim kemarau yang lebih rendah dibandingkan dengan kebutuhan air irigasinya. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengoptimasi rencana tata tanam dan alokasi air irigasi DI Ciliman dengan mempertimbangkan keandalan pemberian air. Penelitian dilakukan melalui simulasi neraca air pada beberapa skenario pembagian golongan, perubahan jadwal tanam, dan perubahan luasan tanam. Optimasi rencana tanam dilakukan dengan memaksimalkan keandalan pemberian air irigasi. Pola tanam yang direkomendasikan adalah 100% padi ditanam di musim tanam I, 100% padi ditanam di musim tanam II, dan 27,47% palawija (kedelai) ditanam di musim tanam III. Pemberian air dibagi menjadi 3 golongan dengan jadwal tanam untuk dimulai pada bulan November periode ke-1, musim tanam II dimulai pada Maret periode ke-1, dan musim tanam III dimulai pada bulan Juli periode ke-2. Dengan kenario ini, terjadi peningkatan indeks pertanaman dimana awalnya pada rencana tanam eksiting sebesar 199,7 (keandalan 83%) menjadi 213,7 (keandalan 100%).
The persistence of persistence in the research world

Published: May 2021

Timmer (2021) raised the issue of perceived value and persistent use of a persistent and very serious problem in humankind's scientific inquiries: replicability problems. Apparently, reading Timmer's makes serious scientists and academics—who have embraced basic ethical standards—both worried and disappointed. And everybody should not omit the fact that Timmer's discussion has been backed by another truly scientific attempt made by Serra-Garcia & Gneezy (2021), published in a high-prestige journal, Science Advances.
Over-expression of protein regulator of cytokinesis 1 in human endometrial cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: May 2021

Gynecologic cancers including cancers of the endometrium are a clinical problem (1-4). We mined published microarray data (5, 6) to discover genes associated with endometrial cancers by comparing transcriptomes of the normal endometrium and endometrial tumors from humans. We identified protein regulator of cytokinesis 1, encoded by PRC1, as among the most differentially expressed genes, transcriptome-wide, in cancers of the endometrium. PRC1 was expressed at significantly higher levels in endometrial tumor tissues as compared to the endometrium. Importantly, primary tumor expression of PRC1 was correlated with overall survival in patients with endometrial cancer. PRC1 may be a molecule of interest in understanding the etiology or progression of human endometrial cancer.

Instructional Leadership of School Principals and Their Schools’ National Achievement Test Performance: A Search of Relationship
Authors: Suyitno
Published: May 2021

This descriptive research has its goal of obtaining instructional leadership profile of school heads along four leadership roles such as resource providers, instructional resource, communicator and visible presence. Further,the study investigated the relationship between the school heads’ instructional leadership performance and their school’ National Achievement Test (NAT) performance. As an offshoot of the investigation, an instructional leadership training program was developed. The study concluded that the school heads are ready to handle the responsibilities and perform their managerial functions; possess the ability to manage time and resources, utilize existing material resources and mobilize human resources in planning for innovations surpassed. In terms of students’ achievement, data revealed that the students have not fully mastered the competencies included in the NAT. results of the correlation analyses disclosed that school heads’ gender, age, civil status, educational attainment, position and years of service are not predictors of instructional leadership performance along the four leadership roles although it was revealed that their civil status affects their roles as communicators, In addition, the school heads’instructional leadership performance does not affect their schools’ NAT performance.
Letter to the Editor: Claims about the effects of botulinum toxin on depression should raise some eyebrows.
Authors: Coles Nicholas Alvaro , Larsen Jeff T.
Published: May 2021

Recently, Schulze and colleagues (2021) and we (Coles, Larsen, Kuribayashi, & Kuelz, 2019) published two separate meta-analyses examining whether glabellar-region botulinum toxin injections can decrease depression. Both meta-analysis teams reviewed similar studies; discussed similar mechanisms-of-action; observed unexpectedly large effect sizes; observed asymmetry in funnel plot distributions; and acknowledged that it is difficult to blind participants. Yet, our two teams came to starkly different conclusions. Whereas Schulze and colleagues concluded that the treatment reaches rigorous “1a level of evidence” standards (p. 338), we concluded the opposite: that the claim is “not yet well substantiated by a credible balance of evidence” (p. 11). In this Letter to the Editor, we clarify why we believe that a more careful consideration of the quality of the evidence, potential costs, and potential benefits is necessary before promoting botulinum toxin as an off-label treatment for depression.
The Visual Mandela Effect as evidence for shared and specific false memories across people
Authors: Prasad Deepasri , Bainbridge Wilma A.
Published: May 2021

The Mandela Effect is an internet phenomenon describing shared and consistent false memories for specific icons in popular culture. The Visual Mandela Effect (VME) is a Mandela Effect specific to visual icons (e.g., the Monopoly Man is falsely remembered with a monocle) and has not yet been empirically quantified or tested. In Experiment 1 (N=100), we demonstrate that certain images from popular iconography elicit consistent, specific false memories. In Experiment 2 (N=60), using eye-tracking-like methods, we find no attentional or visual differences that drive this phenomenon. There is no clear difference in the natural visual experience of these images (Experiment 3), and these VME-errors also occur spontaneously during recall (Experiment 4; N=50). These results demonstrate that there are certain images for which people consistently make the same false memory error, despite majority of visual experience being the canonical image.
Attention and distraction in the predictive brain
Authors: Slagter Heleen A , van Moorselaar Dirk
Published: May 2021

Whether it is possible to ignore a physically salient distractor has been topic of active debate over the past 25 years, with empirical evidence for and against each of the theoretical stances. We put forward that predictive processing may provide a unified theoretical perspective that can account reasonably well for the empirical literature on attentional capture. In this perspective, capture is a logical consequence of the overall imperative of the brain to predict what sensory signals provide precise information to achieve goal-directed behavior.
Changing context of walking behaviour: Impacts of movement restrictions in the urban neighbourhoods coping with the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Lotfata Aynaz , Gemci Aysegul , ferah Bahar
Published: May 2021

Recent theoretical and empirical urban planning studies suggest that the availability of daily amenities, such as shopping stores, health care units, education services, pharmacies, within a 15-20-minute walking distance can keep daily life flux and also bring physical activities to individuals coping with the movement limitations of lockdowns during the COVID-19 Pandemic. This paper focuses on the relationship between neighborhood walkability and the changing walking behavior of 514 individuals during these lockdowns. The spatial context of this relationship highlights three main urban design aspects of the novel and innovative urban neighborhood planning: walkable access, spatial proximity, and social cohesion. This study demonstrates how restrictions imposed by the COVID-19 Pandemic affect the walking behaviors of the individuals, within 15-20 minute walkable and non-walkable neighborhoods located in different socio-economic geographies from American, European, Asian, Western Pacific, African, and Eastern Mediterranean cities. The discussion section of the methodology is supported by a survey questionnaire conducted in 24 disparate neighborhoods. Our data obtained from survey questionnaires is indicating that lockdown restrictions during the Pandemic influenced the walking purpose. Research findings also reflect limitations during the Pandemic complicate individuals’ requiring access to amenities in urban neighborhoods. With a nod to future studies on this topic, this paper proposes a basic framework as well as a thematic analysis with superimposed polar matrix charts.

Published: May 2021

Chronic expansive retroperitoneal hematoma is a hematoma that grows progressively sometime after the original trauma. It can appear in different locations. The mechanism of onset is unclear, but experimental evidence favours an inflammatory cause. For diagnostic imaging, magnetic resonance imaging is more useful than computed tomography (CT). However, it is difficult to differentiate it from other soft tissue tumors, sarcomas, actinomycosis or inflammatory pseudotumors, due to the uneven central uptake. Histopathological analysis of the lesion usually shows a dense fibrous tissue capsule containing numerous old clots without finding clear atypia or signs suggestive of malignancy. The treatment of choice is complete resection of the lesion (including the capsule), as incomplete treatments (such as drainage or curettage of the hematoma contents) may cause recurrence.

Objective of the Review: To discuss the problem of selecting antihyperglycemic drugs; to identify the trends in prescription of various groups of oral antihyperglycemic agents. Key Points. When type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) is diagnosed, a number of patients need prompt combined antihyperglycemic therapy because of a marked carbohydrate metabolism disorder. The prescription paradigm of initial therapy has shifted towards antihyperglycemic agents with established nephro- and cardioprotective effects (sodium-glucose linked transporter-2 inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists). Drugs are recommended depending on presence or absence of a comorbid cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cardiovascular risk factors, and safety as regards hypoglycaemic events; therefore, very often selection of a therapeutic regimen can be challenging. Still, the first-line treatment for patients without CVD is metformin; however, a combined therapy is required in the majority of cases. Poor compliance, continued use of monotherapy, despite the need to boost the therapy, patient’s reluctance to take additional drugs can facilitate occurrence and progression of a lot of associated complications. In such cases, combined medications reducing the amount of tablets and improving compliance are useful. The most common combination of antihyperglycemic drugs is metformin and sulfonylureas. Still, care should be taken because of differences in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the molecules in the latter group. High selectivity of some sulfonylureas can evidence their milder effect for glucose level reduction. Sulfonylureas are also cost-effective as compared to other antidiabetic medications. Conclusion. A wide choice of drugs allows a medical professional selecting an optimal antihyperglycemic regimen, taking into account individual characteristics of a patient. Prompt combined medications are a treatment of choice for the majority of patients with DM. Selection of antihyperglycemic drugs is affected by the cost as well. The most important thing is that the drugs are well-studied, efficient and safe. Keywords: type 2 diabetes mellitus, combined therapy, sulphonylurea, Glimepiride, metformin.

Published: May 2021

Introduction. This publication describes the continuation of a research to determine the level of specific antibodies in patients in the long term after being suffered from COVID-19. Materials and methods. For this phase of the research, a group of patients who relapsed into a COVID-19 eight months ago (240 days) was examined. The group consists of 42 people. All patients, with no exception, had positive PCR results on COVID-19. Some patients were treated in Hospital № 4 in the infectious department, the other part was treated on an outpatient basis. All patients were relatively divided into two age groups: from 18 to 39 (n = 13) and from 40 to 65 (n = 28). The light form of disease was detected in 29 patients, the moderate form – in 11 and the severe one – in 1 patient. Afterwards the level of the antibodies was controlled on the 60th, 90th, 150th and 240th day after the onset. All patients were tested for antibodies to COVID-19 by enzymelinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) performed on the equipment: enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay Tecan (Austria); PW 40 Microplate Washer (France). ELISA set for serology COVID-19 test system IgG SARS-CoV-2 VitroTest (Ukraine). Results. According to the first stage of the research, it was recorded that the immune humoral response to Covid-19 was formed in 82 % into the group – in 54 of 66 people. Subsequently, 42 out of 54 individuals with positive antibody levels participated. Analyzing the group of those who have antibodies, we obtained the following results on day 240 from the onset of the disease: IgG levels remain above the threshold level of 80 % (n = 35). It is interesting to note that in 56 % (n = 23) the level of antibodies remains at a very high level. In 20 % (n = 8) into the group, the level of antibodies significantly decreased throughout the research period and became below the threshold by 240 days. Conclusion. Analyzing the data obtained over 8 months (240 days), certain conclusions can be drawn. The maximum level of antibodies was recorded on day 40 from the onset of the disease. It was shown that in the group of patients who had a positive level of specific antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 above the threshold, IgG did not disappear in any patient between 40 and 150 days. However, the downward trend was observed in 20 % of respondents. In this cohort of patients, the antibodies disappeared by day 240. In most patients (80 %) who recover into SARS-CoV-2, IgG levels remain high for at least 240 days.
Palača Hrvatske akademije znanosti i umjetnosti : Trg Nikole Šubića Zrinskog 11, Zagreb : povijest gradnje, valorizacija i prijedlog konzervatorskih smjernica

U konzervatorskom elaboratu br. 1 obrađena je palača Hrvatske akademije znanosti i umjetnosti na Trgu Nikole Šubića Zrinskog 11 (k. č. 2493 k. o. Centar), sjedište Akademije i Strossmayerove galerije. Njezinom gradnjom (1877.–1884.) autor Friedrich von Schmidt, koji je osmislio projekt nakon odluke da se palača umjesto na Gornjem gradu smjesti u središte Donjega grada, i suradnik Herman Bollé, koji se u taj projekt znatnije uključio nakon što je potres 1880. oštetio započetu palaču, uveli su u zagrebački historicistički ambijent važne inovacije iz same prijestolnice u Beču. S jedne strane, palača se ističe urbanističkim položajem na spoju dvaju ključnih perivojnih trgova Lenucijeve (zelene) potkove, a s druge strane, odlikuje se iznimnom arhitektonskom kvalitetom. Četverokrilno neorenesansno zdanje, naime, obilježeno je ponajprije skladnim pročeljima obloženima opekom te raskošnim vestibulom, stubištem i atrijem. Zadržavši primarnu namjenu, palača je sačuvala i svoja izvorna arhitektonska obilježja, čiju kvalitetu nadopunjuje bogati pokretni inventar – umjetnička djela, namještaj, oprema. Neki recentniji zahvati, poput promjene vestibula i donjeg dijela stubišta (1948.), nisu umanjili arhitektonsku kvalitetu, nego su ju, naprotiv, povećali. No jedan ključni oblikovni element povijesnog identiteta palače tijekom vremena u cijelosti je nestao. Riječ je o neorenesansnom osliku u reprezentativnim dijelovima palače – u ulaznom prostoru, stubištu, atriju i sjedničkim dvoranama – koji je prema Bolléovim nacrtima izveo slikar Johannes Clausen. Cjelovita obnova palače poslije oštećenja u potresu prigoda je da se nakon dovršenja restauratorskih istraživanja pristupi restauraciji nestalog oslika. Uz to, zahtjevan projekt također predmnijeva uređenje i novi postav Strossmayerove galerije.

Izvorno zapremivši cijelu dubinu bloka s pročeljem na Strossmayerovu trgu te s konjušnicom u Petrinjskoj ulici, odlikovala se osovinskom prostornom organizacijom s reprezentativnim središnjim stubištem i dvoranama te s razrađenom vanjštinom s dvama pročeljima, od kojih se ono ulično isticalo bogatstvom arhitektonske plastike okrunjene atikom sa slobodnostojećim skulpturama. Teško konstrukcijski oštećena u potresu, palača je svoja spomenička obilježja očuvala gotovo netaknutima. Stoga će restauracija najkvalitetnije izvorne neobarokne faze ponajprije podrazumijevati pomnu obnovu vanjske plastike i unutrašnje opreme, a osobito štukatura u stubištu i dvoranama.
Urdu, Punjabi & Pothwari: Striking Similarities & Uniqueness of the Three Indo-Aryan Languages
Authors: Qayyum Salma , Qayyum Samina , Qayyum Najma
Published: May 2021

Urdu, Punjabi and Pothwari are the three most widely spoken languages in Pakistan and India. Historical invasions and colonization resulted in the dispersal of the local population, causing numerous dialects of each language. There are different theories and myths about the historical connection of these languages. One such theory says that Pothwari is a variant of the Punjabi language. This might be due to the perception that Pothwari has so far been unable to claim the status of an independent language and thus, has a subordinated, relegated or inferior social status. The main reason behind this might be the folk linguistic perceptions that connect this great Oriental language with the uneducated and the unrefined. Though Urdu, Punjabi and Pothwari have sprung from the same ancestral source, they have developed uniquely over centuries. This article explores how the shared features between these three languages have diverged over time, causing great linguistic diversification
US Policy of Regime Change: Interplay of Systemic Constraints, Leaders' Perceptions, and Domestic Pressures
Authors: Nadeem Mirza Muhammad , Nayab Ayesha
Published: May 2021

How are the systemic constraints transformed through the transmission belt of leader's idiosyncrasies and domestic pressures in order to result in the outcome, which is the pursuance or non-pursuance of regime change policy by the United States? This study analyses the foreign policy decision making of President Bush vis-a-vis Iraq, President Obama vis-a-vis Libya, and President Trump vis-a-vis Iran. It raises the following questions: What is the US policy of regime change, and why and how has it pursued this policy? Why were the US policies different in Iraq, Libya, and Iran, and what have been the implications of these policies upon the region as a whole? While using neoclassical realism as the theoretical paradigm and using qualitative content analysis, this study hypothesizes that the interplay of systemic and domestic level variables results in the foreign policy outcomes in the form of action or inaction towards a particular issue.

Klimatske promjene stavljaju na kušnju maslinare 21. stoljeća te ih prisiljavaju na adekvatnu i provjerenu tehnologiju uzgoja u cilju zaštite od potencijalnih prijetnji. Zemlje mediteranskog bazena suočavaju se s velikim promjenama i izazovima koje uzrokuju posljedice globalnog zatopljenja kao što su temperaturni ekstremi i nepovoljan raspored oborina. Mnoge regije postaju nepogodne za uzgoj maslina, dok se u drugima počinju stvarati idealni uvjeti za maslinarstvo i poljoprivrednu proizvodnju općenito. Grčka i Italija su pretrpjele ogromne gubitke uslijed klimatskih promjena, stoga nam njihovi primjeri služe kao okosnica u kreiranju razvojnih strategija za maslinarstvo.
Oprema za hladno prešanje ulja na obiteljskim poljoprivrednim gospodarstvima
Authors: Poje Tomaž
Published: May 2021

Iz uljarica hladnim prešanjem dobijemo uljanu pogaču i visoko kvalitetno ulje. Ulje se upotrebljava za ljudsku prehranu, ali i za kozmetiku te za ljekovite namjene. Uljna pogača najviše se upotrebljava za ishranu stoke, ali se konzumira i u ljudskoj ishrani. Za prešanje se najčešće upotrebljavaju vijčane preše s pogonom na elektromotor. Kod vijčanih preša može se podešavati broj okretaja vijaka, promjer mlaznice i udaljenost kompresijske glave od vijka. Kod prešanja zbog trenja nastaje i toplina.

The city of Harran, one of the ancient and ancient cities in the Euphrates region, is currently located southeast of Turkey at the source of the Balikh River, one of the tributaries of the Euphrates River. / 639 AD, under the leadership of Commander Iyadh bin Ghanem, and he concluded a treaty with them, and the city became affiliated with the Islamic State at the time of the Rashidun Caliph Omar bin Al-Khattab, may God be pleased with him. The city of Harran is one of the distinctive cities in the region of the Euphrates and the state of Islam because it is the city of the Sabian religion, with their sanctuaries, temples and sacred monuments to them. The city emerged after it became a center of rule during the Umayyad dynasty, and it became more prominent when the Umayyad Caliph Marwan II made it the capital of the Umayyad state. Thus, the city of Harran was a different city from the rest of the cities of the Euphrates Island, due to its own religion, namely the Sabian religion, and its difference in social terms from the rest of the neighboring cities because it contained different peoples and languages, and which made it distinctive also its impact on the trade route that was passing through the Euphrates Island as well. Contribution to building Islamic civilization through its scholars. Harran, Al-Sabean, Al-Jazeera, Rashdi, Umayyad.

Data were collected using three techniques namely observation, interview, and documentation which involved the school principal, vice-principal, and teachers at SLBN 1 Lima Kaum Tanah Datar Regency as the sources of data. The data were analyzed in three steps, they were data reduction, display, and verification. Trustworthiness data was done by conducting triangulation. This study found that the implementation of student management for children with special needs was run well based on the established procedures. It was proven by the existence of student planning managements including needs analysis and school activities program construction; student coaching management including student discipline coaching through scouting activities and special services for the students; and student evaluation management through learning outcome and achievement of teachers and the students as well to optimize the student management.
What Makes an Environmental Steward? An Individual Differences Approach
Authors: Plummer Ryan , Baird Julia , Dale Gillian
Published: May 2021

Engaging in environmental stewardship is critical for sustainability. Understanding individual differences and engagement is an important gap in present scholarship and addressing it is necessary to understand individual factors that relate to the types of activities engaged in, motivations and barriers to environmental stewardship. We surveyed 637 Canadian and American adults via Amazon Mechanical Turk, querying a range of demographic, psychological and environmental perceptions factors as well as motivations and barriers to stewardship activities. Respondents were ultimately grouped into Non-Stewards, Home-Oriented Stewards and Community-Oriented Stewards. Few differences were found among these groups. However, Home-Oriented Stewards and Community-Oriented Stewards exhibited very different initial and ongoing motivations to engage in environmental stewardship. Accordingly, we identify stewardship motivations as a potential leverage point and as one of several promising avenues for future research related to enhancing engagement in environmental stewardship for the sustainability of the planet.
Comparing Twitter and LODES Data for Detecting Commuter Mobility Patterns

Published: May 2021

Local and regional planners struggle to keep up with rapid changes in mobility patterns. This exploratory research is framed with the overarching goal of asking if and how geo-social network data (GSND), in this case, Twitter data, can be used to understand and explain commuting and non-commuting travel patterns. The research project set out to determine whether GSND may be used to augment US Census LODES data beyond commuting trips and whether it may serve as a short-term substitute for commuting trips. It turns out that the reverse is true and the common practice of employing LODES data to extrapolate to overall traffic demand is indeed justified. This means that expensive and rarely comprehensive surveys are now only needed to capture trip purposes. Regardless of trip purpose (e.g., shopping, regular recreational activities, dropping kids at school), the LODES data is an excellent predictor of overall road segment loads.

OBJECTIVE: The study aims at assessing the relationship between blood pressure, heart geometry parameters, and the erythrocyte content of sulfur, potassium, chlorine and phosphorus, in a group of patients with ambulatory systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP, DBP) below 140 or 90 mm Hg, respectively, who were otherwise healthy and untreated. METHODS: The study group consisted of 42 adults recruited in a primary care setting. The individuals were healthy, not undergoing any therapy and free from smoking. For each individual, data were obtained on: average 24-hour SBP and DBP, left ventricle geometry, complete blood count, lipids profile, fibrinogen, hs-CRP and the erythrocyte concentration of sulfur (S), potassium (K), chlorine (Cl) and phosphorus (P). RESULTS: Multivariate regression analysis showed statistically significant relationships of diastolic posterior wall thickness (PWTd) and relative wall thickness (RWT) with the concentration ratio of sulfur and potassium (S/K) in erythrocytes: PWTd and RWT increase as the S/K ratio increases. Also, SBP was found to be positively correlated with the S/K ratio. CONCLUSIONS: The increase in sulfur content in RBCs could be an indicator of the downregulation of nitric oxide (NO) erythrocyte bioavailability exerted by endogenously produced hydrogen sulfide (H2S), and, in consequence, a marker of the development of hypertension and/or adverse changes in heart geometry.

Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription (STAT) pathway is functionally located downstream of Janus kinases proteins and can integrate signals from diverse pathways, thus regulating several aspects of immune responses. Although contribution of STAT proteins in the pathogenesis of several inflammatory conditions has been confirmed, their role in the development of periodontitis has been less appraised. Thus, we assessed levels of STAT transcripts in the periodontal tissues and circulation of affected individuals compared with the corresponding controls. Expression of STAT1 was remarkably lower in tissues samples of patients compared with control tissues (Ratio of mean expression (RME) = 0.15, SE = 0.99, P value = 0.01). Expression of STAT3 was lower in total periodontitis tissues compared with total control tissues (RME = 0.20, SE = 0.95, P value = 0.02). Expression of STAT6 was higher in total periodontitis tissues compared with total control tissues (RME = 0.5.38, SE = 0.74, P value < 0.001). Expressions of other STAT genes were statistically similar in tissues obtained from cases and controls. Moreover, blood levels of all STAT genes were statistically similar between patients and controls. Correlation analysis demonstrated significant correlations between tissues levels of individual STAT genes as well as between their blood levels. However, tissue and blood levels of each STAT gene were not correlated. The current investigation potentiates the role of certain STAT genes in the development of this immune-related condition and warrants functional assays to clarify the mechanism.

The Mahjong game has widely been acknowledged to be a difficult problem in the field of imperfect information games. Because of its unique characteristics of asymmetric, serialized and multi-player game information, conventional methods of dealing with perfect information games are difficult to be applied directly on the Mahjong game. Therefore, AI (artificial intelligence)-based studies to handle the Mahjong game become challenging. In this study, an efficient AI-based method to play the Mahjong game is proposed based on the knowledge and game-tree searching strategy. Technically, we simplify the Mahjong game framework from multi-player to single-player. Based on the above intuition, an improved search algorithm is proposed to explore the path of winning. Meanwhile, three node extension strategies are proposed based on heuristic information to improve the search efficiency. Then, an evaluation function is designed to calculate the optimal solution by combining the winning rate, score and risk value assessment. In addition, we combine knowledge and Monte Carlo simulation to construct an opponent model to predict hidden information and translate it into available relative probabilities. Finally, dozens of experiments are designed to prove the effectiveness of each algorithm module. It is also worthy to mention that, the first version of the proposed method, which is named as KF-TREE, has won the silver medal in the Mahjong tournament of 2019 Computer Olympiad.

Intrusion can compromise the integrity, confidentiality, or availability of a computer system. Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is a type of security software designed to monitor network traffic and identify network intrusions. In this paper, A Fuzzy Rule – Based classification system is used to detect intrusion in a computer network. In order to improve the classification rate, a new method is proposed based on Genetic Algorithm (GA) for rule weights specification. The proposed method is tested on KDD99 dataset. Experimental results show the proposed method improves the performance of the fuzzy rule-based classification systems in terms of detection rate and false alarm rate.

In this letter, an efficient and electrically compact cavity-backed self-triplexing antenna using a substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) technique is proposed. The antenna model is nested with an inverted “T”-shaped cavity and convert the rectangular SIW cavity into the two quarter mode (QM) and a half mode cavity (HM) approximately; excited through a coax probe and two micro-strip feed line separately. The proposed model operates at three distinct frequencies at 9.37 GHz, 9.86 GHz, and 10.36 GHz used for X-band wireless and radar communication systems. The self-triplexing feature is obtained with the mode perturbation concept and adequate intrinsic isolation of >31 dB is observed among three input ports. The proposed antenna possesses a minimum frequency ratio, uni-directional radiation patterns with high gain, and better efficiency.

Authors: Yu Xiaobing
Published: May 2021

Rapid progress has been made in the intelligent technology of prefabricated buildings in recent years, and the related scheduling in many fields such as component production, workshop assembly, and road transportation is used for the optimization of resources. In this paper, the prefabricated building project is taken as the research objective to analyze the constraint conditions between prefabricated building projects in detail. It is proposed that the radial basis function (RBF) fuzzy logic neural network algorithm should be introduced into the optimization of building resource scheduling. Finally, the results of the experimental analysis suggest that the proposed method can effectively address the problem of resource scheduling in the prefabricated construction project, which can also provide a reference for the managers of prefabricated construction projects.
