The current research work aimed to develop and evaluate the ibuprofen loaded ethosomal gel for transdermal delivery. Ibuprofen is an anti-inflammatory drug. On oral administration, it undergoes extensive hepatic metabolism. It has short biological half-life (1.8-2hr) and low bioavailability (49-70%). To overcome the side effects, it would be preferable to apply via transdermal delivery. Ibuprofen loaded ethosomes were prepared by film hydration technique using 32 factorial design and characterized for various physicochemical parameters. The optimized ethosomes was incorporated into gel using carbopol 940NF as a gel base. The developed gels were tested against rheology, ex vivo skin permeation studies, FTIR studies and stability studies. The prepared ethosomal dispersion shown particle size in the range of 140 nm to 242nm, zeta potential was found in the range of -18 to -36mV, %EE was found in the range of 44 to 84% and in vitro permeation studies were found in the range of 71 to 94% respectively. Based on rheological properties, 1%w/v concentration was optimized among the prepared gels. The ethosomal gel flux was found to be 27µg/cm2/hr which was found as better than other test products. FTIR studies revealed that there was no incompatibity between drug and excipients. Stability studies resulted that the optimum storage condition (2-8°C) doesn’t effect on degradation of physicochemical properties. It was concluded that ethosomes alters physicochemical properties of drug and thus enhances its permeation across the skin. Hence, ethosomes are considered as promising tool for anti-inflammatory therapy via transdermal delivery. Key words: Factorial design, Gel, Rheology, Permeation, Ethosomes

Poverty is one of the nation's problems that is the cause of the emergence of social inequality, unemployment and economic backwardness. In order to reduce the poverty rate, it is necessary to have innovative policies that are reflected by the Pasuruan Regency Government in response to these problems through Regent Decree no. 9 of 2016 concerning the Maslahat Village Program. The location of the Maslahat Village Program, one of which is in Kalipucang Village, Tutur District, has an agricultural and livestock base. The Maslahat Village Program is the flagship program of the Pasuruan Regent in optimizing village potential so that villages that are considered lagging behind in terms of development and economy can become developed villages and reduce poverty, unemployment and social inequality in them. This type of research uses descriptive qualitative research. The data collection technique was by direct interviews with informants consisting of the Village Head and Village Apparatus, the Community, Head of the Pasuruan Regency Government Service and Apparatus and Members of the Pasuruan Regency DPRD. This study uses the theory of summative evaluation or impact evaluation by using several indicators. Based on the results of the research that has been done, it can be said that this program seems to be quite successful where from the 10 summative evaluation indicators used there are several indicators that are considered very good, namely the aspect of public perception. The community does give a good perception and actively participates. In indicators of results and influence of the program, the community has felt the impact and results, although in reality there are other supporting factors and actors. Keywords: Capacity, Local Wisdom Values. Meanwhile, the indicators for general and specific objectives, cost effectiveness and cost efficiency appear to be quite good. But there are also many indicators that are not implemented, such as the absence of policy evaluations from the Regional Government which are then communicated to stakeholders. Kalipucang Village also did not anticipate well the outputs that were not anticipated by the program, namely those related to land transfer and the availability of village funds in the program. In general, the Maslahat Village Program contributes to improving the economy and development in the village with the birth of the development of MSMEs, the agricultural, livestock and tourism sectors. However, the Maslahat Village Program, if evaluated, is only a formality and routine. In addition, in the management of program implementation, there is a mal function management that does not evaluate the program so that it appears that the Maslahat Village program is a symbolic and prestigious program from the political aspect that tends to be an unsustainable program.

Like other countries around the world, both developed and developing countries, Indonesia's local government performance is measured primarily through the provision of basic services. Despite efforts to improve the service represents a concrete manifestation of good governance to promote human development, local governments have struggled to overcome many challenges and limitations. In this paper, good governance focuses on motivation and progress that emerged by some districts in Indonesia in improving their management system for the creation of effective service. Local governments can benefit from the assistance in fostering reform, provide advocacy, facilitating groups of stakeholders in implementing the reform agenda, monitor performance, and initiate and replicate the results. A study showed that coaching should be a partnership between consultant and local governments to develop capacity and provide skills to local government. The creation of a market for consulting and advocacy services include networking and advocacy among professional bodies and practitioners, public oversight bodies and “watchdog” organizations and groups of non-governmental organizations (NGO’s). In addition, the need to develop the market for the instruments in accordance with capacity building, particularly government-assisted instruments.

Published: June 2022

Futures studies offer a framework of ideas and guidelines that allow us to develop more productive images of the future and ways of working with it. Despite several efforts to translate this approach to different educational contexts, it is still a field under development. The main objective of this article is to present and discuss the latest international academic developments and contributions of futures studies to education. For this purpose, we conducted a systematic review of the literature using the Web of Science and Scopus databases. We considered articles published between 2012 and 2022. We started with 437 articles and after the application of the exclusion criteria, this number was reduced to 50 articles that were directly related to educational issues. The findings show that the literature included specific educational methodologies, a balance between theoretical and empirical publications, a focus on specialised journals and countries and that multidisciplinarity in education was not common with subjects outside social sciences. Moreover, we found that the predictive approach and negative perspectives were not present. We conclude that futures literacy is a key element to bringing together ideas related to futures studies in education, that futures studies contribute to changing the way of working with and conceptualising the future in education, and that they promote transformative movements.

Los estudios de futuros ofrecen un marco de ideas y disposiciones a partir de las cuales desarrollar imágenes más productivas del futuro y formas de trabajar con este. Aunque existen múltiples esfuerzos por trasladar estos planteamientos a diferentes ámbitos educativos, aún sigue siendo un campo por desarrollar. El objetivo central de este artículo es exponer y discutir los últimos avances y contribuciones académicas internacionales de estudios de futuros en educación. Para ello, se ha realizado una revisión sistemática de la literatura usando las bases de datos Web of Science y Scopus considerando artículos publicados entre 2012 y 2022. Se ha contado con una muestra inicial de 437 artículos que, al aplicar criterios de exclusión, se redujo a 50 que vinculaban directamente los estudios de futuros a temas educativos. Los hallazgos muestran que las publicaciones contienen propuestas educativas, que existe un equilibrio entre estudios teóricos y empíricos, que se concentran en revistas especializadas, en determinados países y que la multidisciplinariedad es limitada fuera de las Ciencias sociales. Asimismo, encontramos que el enfoque predictivo y las visiones negativas no tienen presencia. Se concluye que la alfabetización en futuros es un elemento clave para acercar las ideas de estudios de futuros al ámbito educativo, que los estudios de futuros contribuyen a cambiar las formas de trabajar y conceptualizar el futuro en educación y que promueven dinámicas transformadoras.

Farming ofRhynchophorus phoenicishas been part of the human race for over 200,000 years as a productive strategy for subsistence living. Despite the remarkable interest generated in recent years, and the studies carried out by scientists in Ghana, insect rearing for food is still in its infant stage and bedeviled with enormous challenges such as managerial, extension service, technology, and marketing. In highlighting these challenges, the confirmatory factor analysis method was used to analyse the challenges facingR. phoenicislarvae farmers in the Ejisu-Juaben Municipality. The purposive sampling technique was used to sample the farmers. Closed and opened ended questionnaires were administered by ten well-trained field enumerators in a face-to-face interview in the selected communities (Donyina, Fumesua, Asotwe, Kubease, and Bomfa). The results highlighted extension, managerial, technology, and marketing as the main components containing sixteen variables with a percentage variation of 70.8% in the production ofR. phoenicislarvae. These factors were managerial challenges (25.2%), technological challenges (23.0%), extension services challenges (16.7%), and marketing challenges (6.9%).R. phoenicislarvae have great potential for sustainably providing food and livelihood for the growing population in the Ejisu-Juaben Municipality. However, the various variables under the four main challenges can be addressed by scientists across the country if the government equips and task research institutions such as the Centre for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), the Savannah Agricultural Research Institute (SARI), and the Universities, with resources to come out with technologies that will enhance the production ofR. phoenicislarvae in the municipality.
Energías renovables y desarrollo local en Extremadura

Published: June 2022

Extremadura produce en la actualidad cuatro veces más energía de la que consume. A pesar de ello, la Administración Regional proyecta multiplicar por 2,7 la potencia instalada de generación renovable, especialmente de tipo solar fotovoltaico. Este planteamiento se sustenta de modo prioritario en la construcción de grandes plantas fotovoltaicas y se justifica por el impacto positivo que podrían ejercer sobre el desarrollo local mediante la generación de empleo, la fijación de población en el territorio y la mejora general de la economía.
Para valorar estos planteamientos, son objetivos de este artículo analizar la evolución y tipología de la producción eléctrica en Extremadura y ponderar la incidencia de la producción eléctrica en el desarrollo de los municipios extremeños a través de la generación de empleo y de sus efectos demográficos y económicos. Los resultados indican que las grandes cifras de capital invertido, de superficie ocupada, de paneles instalados o de energía producida no guardan relación con la incidencia que tiene la producción eléctrica en el desarrollo de los territorios afectados.
Demographics, Finances, Social Media
Authors: Davis Miles
Published: June 2022

The purpose of this chapter is to address the changing external factors impacting a college or university—these terms will be used interchangeably for the remainder of the document—presidency and how these changes often place a president in conflict with established norms and traditions within the academy. The external factors identified can impact both the personal reputation of the president and that of the institution they are leading. If these factors are not managed well, they could lead to not only the president's failure, but also to a dismissal from their role and long-term reputational damage to the university. The external factors can be divided into three broad categories, which overlap but have to be addressed with distinct strategies. These categories are shifting demographics, college business model, and the role of social media.
Balancing Access and Quality
Authors: Nunez Elsa M.
Published: June 2022

Dr. Elsa M. Núñez, president of Eastern Connecticut State University, describes her personal and professional journey to bring the promise of a college degree to underrepresented students. The chapter explores the academic achievement gap in Connecticut, the importance of a college degree in today's technological society, and the need to provide access to higher education to a growing minority population long denied access to college. Dr. Núñez then uses two programs at Eastern—the Dual College Enrollment Program and Eastern's participation in a national program for undocumented students—to demonstrate how this New England public university has been able to enroll students from marginalized communities and provide them with an engaged campus experience that leads to graduation. Even as Eastern has impacted the lives of underrepresented students, the university has maintained the quality of the education its students receive. U.S. News and World Report's 2022 rankings place Eastern #1 in New England among public regional universities for the third year in a row.
Late blowing defect in Grottone cheese: detection of clostridia and control strategies
Authors: Peruzy Maria Francesca , Blaiotta Giuseppe , Aponte Maria , De Sena Maria , Murru Nicoletta
Published: June 2022

“Grottone” is a pasta filata hard cheese produced in Campania region from cow’s milk and characterized by holes formation due to CO2 development by Propionic Acid Bacteria. The contamination of raw milk with butyric acid-producing spore-forming clostridia represent a major concern for cheese producers since clostridia outgrowth may lead to the cheese late blowing defect during ripening. Detection of clostridial endospores in milk before processing and the use of antimicrobial compounds may represent an important control strategy. The present study is aimed to point out the most suitable procedure for the determination of clostridial spores in dairy samples, and to assess the inhibitory activity of several antimicrobial compounds against Cl. sporogenes. Based on results, MPN counts on Bryant and Burkey medium and CFU on RCM proved to be the most suitable protocols for routine testing. By using these procedures clostridial spores were detected in 10 out 13 milk samples and in all cheeses with late blowing defect. Within antimicrobial compounds, sodium nitrate is still the best choice for preventing late blowing, nevertheless a protective culture of Lacticaseibacillus casei proved to be a promising alternative. Nevertheless, the use of this protective culture in six Grottone cheese productions carried out at farm level, led to unsatisfactory results. Holes’ development was hampered likely for an inhibition of the PAB starter and the expected ‘Grouviera-type’ taste was not perceived by panellists. Based on results, the use of protective cultures needs to be contextualized and interactions with starters needs to be evaluated case by case.
Preoperative computed tomography-guided patent blue localization for pulmonary nodules

Published: June 2022

Background:

The increasing lung cancer screening for asymptomatic adults via computed tomography (CT) has increased the discovery of intermediate pulmonary nodules (PNs) that are small, with a subsolid component, or/and are relatively deeply seated. Pre- or intraoperative localization could be the main modality to identify and localize these target intermediate PNs and facilitate the subsequent surgical resection accordingly. Herein, we present the learning experience of preoperative CT-guided patent blue localization (CTPBL) for PNs in a tertiary hospital and concomitantly conduct an extensive literature review.

Materials and Methods:

This retrospective study included all patients with PNs undergoing CTPBL before video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) resection from January 2019 to August 2020. After completing the consultation and informed consent, preoperative CTPBL was conducted to label these intermediate PNs. Data included the patients' characteristics (sex, age, smoking status, and comorbidities), CTPBL details (PN size and related lobe, dye dilution, puncture times, and time interval from localization to surgery), CT-guided localization complications (pneumothorax, focal parenchyma hemorrhage, hemothorax, and hemoptysis), and intraoperative findings and postoperative pathologic report. The Chi-square tests, Fisher's exact test, and independent t-tests were used to compare the abovementioned variables. Multiple regression analysis was used to identify the potential risk factors for CTPBL-related complications.

Results:

This study included 54 consecutive patients with 58 PNs, of which 54 had single and 4 had double nodules. The average size of PNs was 0.77 ± 0.31 cm (0.3–2.1); the localization duration and time interval from initial labeling to VATS were 40.4 ± 12.1 min (24–72) and 243.4 ± 94.8 min (118–520), separately. The success rate of preoperative CTPBL was 96.6% (56/58), and all PNs were uneventfully resected via VATS after CTPBL. CTPBL-related complications accounted for 40.7% (22/54), including pneumothorax (22/54), focal parenchyma hemorrhage (11/54), hemothorax (2/54), and hemoptysis (2/54), in order. Based on our multiple regression analysis, the number of PNs is the only potential risk factor related to CTPBL-related hemoptysis (95% confidence interval = −0.545–−0.233; P < 0.001).

Conclusion:

Based on our learning experience, CTPBL for intermediate PNs could be a safe procedure to label intermediate PNs for thoracoscopic excisional biopsy with a satisfactory success rate. Moreover, our multiple regression analysis demonstrated that patients undergoing repetitive localizations for two PNs were prone to have hemoptysis after CTPBL.
Low-dose computed tomography screening, follow-up, and management of lung nodules – An expert consensus statement from Taiwan
Authors: Chiang Xu-Heng , Hsu Hsao-Hsun , Chen Jin-Shing , Hsu Chung-Ping , Hsu Han-Shui
Published: June 2022

Lung cancer has the highest mortality rates in many advanced countries including those in Europe and America. In Taiwan, lung cancer had, in the last 10 years, the third incidence and the highest mortality rates. Currently, lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in Taiwan. Every year, about 13,000 people are newly diagnosed with lung cancer, and more than 9000 people die of this disease. To reduce the high mortality rate of lung cancer, many experts promote lung cancer screenings based on the results from several trials (e.g., NELSON trial, National Lung Screening Trial). However, the cost–effect impacts derived from widespread low-dose computed tomography (CT) screening should be considered. This review article is based on the health education guidance manual provided by the National Health Administration of the Ministry of Health and Welfare and jointly developed by Taiwan Lung Cancer Institute, Association of Thoracic and Intensive Care Medicine, Taiwan Association of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Taiwan Radiological Society, Taiwan Society of Thoracic Surgeons, and Formosa Cancer Foundation. It also describes who, when, and how often individuals should undergo CT-based lung cancer screening. Furthermore, follow-up and treatment recommendations for patients with positive screening results are included in this review.

Cyborg i maszyna – od tego wszystko się zaczyna! O początkach techniki i cyborgizacji w pradziejach
Authors: Dzbyński Aleksander
Published: June 2022

Wychodząc od koncepcji maszyny Mumforda, tekst łączy wątki antropologiczne, archeologiczne, historyczne i filozoficzne, aby zarysować przemianę człowieka od najwcześniejszych epok prahistorycznych do dnia dzisiejszego. Tak wyznaczona trajektoria śledzenia technologicznych wątków w „naturze” ludzkiej obejmuje antropologiczną koncepcję szamanizmu i magii, problematykę początku technicyzacji kultury ludzkiej z punktu widzenia prahistorii, aż po specyficzne wizje pierwszych robotów i sztucznej inteligencji w starożytnej Grecji oraz ich teologicznie przekonwertowanej recepcji w epoce oświecenia. Artykuł zawiera również krótkie zarysowanie istoty techniki, sięgającej wczesnej epoki metalu i mającej związek z fuzją techniki i matematyki, jaka się wówczas dokonała.

CYBORG AND MACHINE – THIS IS WHERE IT ALL STARTS! ON THE ORIGINS OF TECHNOLOGY AND CYBORGIZATION IN PREHISTORY

Starting from Mumford's concept of the machine, the text combines anthropological, archaeological, historical and philosophical themes to outline the transformation of human beings from the earliest prehistoric epochs to the present day. The trajectory thus set out to trace technological threads in human “nature” ranges from the anthropological concept of shamanism and magic, to the question about the beginning of the technicism of human culture from the perspective of prehistory, to the specific visions of the first robots and artificial intelligence in ancient Greece and their theologically-converted reception in the Age of Enlightenment. The article also includes a brief outline of the essence of technics, going back to the early metal age and having to do with the fusion of technology and mathematics that have taken place then.

Leukoedema is a change that affects the jugal mucosa bilaterally, presenting as a whitish or grayish-white plaque. It has uncertain etiology, but is believed to be derived from a developmental change, while leukoplakia is a clinical term for the definition of a non-shaved white plaque that can affect the jugal mucosa and other oral sites. Its etiology may be linked to the use of tobacco, alcohol and ultraviolet radiation, being considered a potentially malignant lesion and treatment will depend on the degree of cellular dysplasia and extent of the lesion. The aim of this article is to present a clinical case of a patient diagnosed with two white lesions in the jugal mucosa. A 57-year-old female brown patient sought dental care complaining of white spots on her cheeks. She reported being a smoker for 35 years, having the habit of consuming a pack and a half a day. After clinical examination, the diagnostic hypotheses of leukoedema and leukoplakia were raised. Incisional biopsy, followed by histopathological analysis, confirmed the diagnosis of leukoedema with overlapping leukoplakia. Leukoedema does not require treatment as it is a variation of normality. However, it may be clinically associated with disorders that require intervention, as in the case presented, generating masking of characteristics and, consequently, diagnostic confusion.

Este trabalho teve o objetivo de analisar a distribuição espacial das moradias nas áreas úmidas (ressacas) da sede municipal de Santana, Estado do Amapá, para os anos de 2009, 2015 e 2019, possibilitando a quantificação deste processo e a discussão de possíveis consequências na qualidade ambiental urbana. A análise de ocupação foi realizada a partir da interpretação visual de imagens de sensores remotos de elevada resolução espacial, através do método de digitalização manual, com auxílio do software livre QGIS versão 3.4. A análise dividiu-se em duas etapas: a) Análise geral das ressacas e; b) Análise fragmentada, através da delimitação das unidades espaciais: Fonte Nova, Paraíso, Central, Nova Brasília, Remédios e Provedor.  Os resultados apontaram um aumento no número de ocupações nas áreas úmidas de maior pressão populacional. Destacaram-se as porções de ressacas contidas em Fonte Nova e Paraíso com 75% e 59,7% de áreas conservadas, respectivamente, enquanto em Remédios, Central e Nova Brasília obtiveram 100% de suas áreas de ressacas antropizadas ao final da análise, demonstrando assim, uma dinâmica de ocupação crescente nos limites das ressacas, influenciando no seu estado de preservação.
TCAM Network Memory Error Detection and Correction Method
Authors: Thirumala Vidya Sagar S  , B.D.Venkatramana Reddy
Published: June 2022

Ternary content addressable memories (TCAMs) are widelyused in network devices to implement
packet classification. They are used, for example, for packet forwarding, for security, and to implement
software-defined networks (SDNs). TCAMs are commonly implemented as standalone devices or as an
intellectual property block that is integrated on networking application-specific integrated circuits. On the other
hand, field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) do not include TCAM blocks. However, the flexibility of FPGAs
makes them attractive for SDN implementations, and most FPGA vendors provide development kits for SDN.
Those need to support TCAM functionality and, therefore, there is a need to emulate TCAMs using the logic
blocks available in the FPGA. In recent years, a number of schemes to emulate TCAMs on FPGAs have been
proposed. Some of them take advantage of the large number of memory blocks available inside modern FPGAs
to use them to implement TCAMs. A problem when using memories is that they can be affected by soft errors
that corrupt the stored bits. The memories can be protected with a parity check to detect errors or with an error
correction code to correct them, but this requires additional memory bits per word. In this brief, the protection
of the memories used to emulate TCAMs is considered. In particular, it is shown that by exploiting the fact that
only a subset of the possible memory contents are valid, most single-bit errors can be corrected when the
memories are protected with a parity bit.
University Students’ and Teachers’ Wellbeing During COVID-19 in Bangladesh: A Qualitative Enquiry
Authors: Sultana Shaila , Roshid M. Moninoor , Haider Md. Zulfeqar , Khan Rubina , Kabir Mian , Jahan Akhter
Published: June 2022

The wellbeing of teachers and students has emerged as a common concern in research studies in recent times, specifically during the critical period of COVID-19. Based on the findings drawn from the qualitative data through focus group discussions of five groups of teachers (16 females and 8 males) and students (10 males and nine females) at the tertiary level of education in Bangladesh, this paper shows that online teaching during COVID-19 is affected by personal and social challenges, and consequently, both teachers and students experience anxieties and stresses. Teachers are anxious because of the university authorities' surveillance, frequent pay cuts, and fear of losing jobs due to students' low enrollment in universities. They also suffer from physical discomforts, such as back pain, blur vision, and headache because of the prolonged engagement with online activities. Students, especially those from a non-privileged background located in peripheral rural contexts, seem to suffer more from contextual realities that are non-conducive for technology-based learning. Increased numbers and various forms of online assessments also seem to become a burden for them. In general, educational experiences of online teaching seemed to have a peripheral role in their conceptualization of wellbeing. The paper concludes that the insurmountable attention given to online pedagogic practices across the world needs to be balanced out by an equal effort in improving the wellbeing of both teachers and students.
