Published: January 2025

This article deals with Science and the construction of scientific knowledge. The text is intended mainly for undergraduate students, and its relevance is based on the need for students to understand the scientific scope, and acquire and build knowledge, especially at the beginning of the course, so that they can expand intellectually, personally, socially, and professionally. Indeed, the appropriation of already consolidated knowledge and the acquisition of new knowledge is possible in many ways, however, the construction of scientific knowledge differs from one branch of knowledge to another. This text presents and discusses issues necessary for the beginning of scientific research: the concept of Science, types of knowledge, scientific language, scientific discursive genres, methodological possibilities, procedures, and instruments for generating data and for analysis, among other issues relevant to scientific practice. The intention is for this text to contribute to the construction of knowledge about the object that it proposes to investigate. One should not think that these are easy tricks nor are they known by everyone who enrolls in undergraduate courses; the reality is different and requires a detailed exposition and explanation, especially for those new to scientific research.

Although medical emergencies in the dental office are rare, they can pose significant risks to patients' lives. The present work was designed in order to provide a prevention protocol, early diagnosis and initial interventions to guarantee patient safety and minimize serious adverse events. For this purpose, a qualitative, descriptive and exploratory approach was used, carried out through bibliographic analysis of primary sources related to the topic. The results identified the inadequacies of the theoretical and practical training of dentists to address medical emergencies. In particular, the authors note that professionals in the field lack skills in cardiopulmonary resuscitation and basic life support. Additionally, not all offices have the equipment or medications necessary to provide first aid. For example, most dentists today do not have defibrillators or emergency medications in their offices. Under these conditions, it would be appropriate to propose a formal protocol that includes preventive measures, risk identification, continuous training and provision of resources. Therefore, it can be assumed that the regular use of the proposed programs, together with other measures for practical training, will improve the response capacity of professionals to emergencies and reduce the morbidity of incidents. Before concluding, it is necessary to point out the need for future research related to the evaluation of training programs and the requested economic analyzes to ensure that the proposed interventions are sustainable.

Authors: Hernández Runque Estela , Ron Misael , González Argote Javier
Published: January 2025

Objective: To evaluate the serum cholinesterase activity in a population that is occupationally exposed to pesticides during the years 2022 - 2023. Materials and Methods: A descriptive, field, non-experimental, quantitative research was conducted during the years 2022-2023. The population consisted of 144 workers exposed to carbamate and/or organophosphate pesticides, and the sample was of the census type, representing 100% of the population. The cholinesterase activity was determined using the Randa and Limperos method, with modifications by Epson. The analysis was conducted using Lovibond field equipment. A spreadsheet in Excel 2013 software was used for data processing. Results: There was evidence of a predominance of male labor force (95.1%), with workers over 40 years of age (62.5%) and blue-collar workers (80.6%); in terms of exposure time, workers have long exposure to insecticides. Similarly, the average decrease in cholinesterase levels exceeded 7% among the study's population, with older workers experiencing the most significant declines in enzyme activity. Conclusions: exposure to pesticides represents an occupational health problem, since it was found that the average decreases in cholinesterase occupy an important place in the population studied, reflecting potential events that could have a negative impact on the health of these workers. This makes it necessary to consolidate and strengthen the bases where the preventive culture is sustained.
Legal Consequences of the Auction of the Auction Object Related to the Beneficial Owner of the Auction Object Over the Buyer
Authors: Salsabila Amira Choirunnisa , Anshari Tunggul , Widhiawati Dyah
Published: January 2025

A competitive auction consists of a public sale managed by a second manager, where sellers and buyers exchange assets as specified in mutual documents. According to the provisions of Article 38(c) of the Financial Regulation No. 4662; these officials cannot purchase goods directly or indirectly in their presence, in accordance with the Secondary Officials Law No. 189/PMK.06/2017. However, the fact that the legislation does not specify specific conditions regarding the concept of "direct or indirect purchase" causes confusion. This ambiguity raises concerns about abuses such as buy-side consultants participating in money laundering (TPPU). This study examines two important issues: the limitations of the term "buyer" in Section 38(c) and the legal benefits provided to employees associated with the buyer-owner. Remain loyal to the judicial system, use law and techniques to analyse the interpretation of the law. The study ends with the clarification of the scope of the ban and the investigation of the legal consequences of non-compliance with the ban. These findings can form the basis for recommendations to the relevant authorities on resolving legal issues and preventing abuse of the auction process, complying with legislation and ethical rules

Background: The reliability of the purification process and monoculture technique for microalgae was investigated in this study. The study involves the isolation of microalgae from the environment of different localities to get the axenic culture of microalgae and test the reliability of other commonly used techniques. The vast usage of microalgae in industry and for the welfare of mankind demands the mono and pure culture of microalgae. Contaminants in the growth medium can alter the products which causes significant losses.
Materials and Methods: Morphological study of any strain highly demands pure culture, so different techniques are being used, but only some techniques are reliable.
Results: From the investigation, not a single technique is present which is entirely reliable, as contaminants are freely present in the universe so there are great chances of contamination.
Conclusion: Comparatively single cell picking and dilution to extinction are effective methods for investigation purposes. These techniques are more reliable when combined with other techniques, for example, the addition of antibiotics or the use of ultraviolet radiation and washing methods compositely used with the above-mentioned techniques gave fruitful and reliable results.

This study analysed the marketing behaviour of tribal millet growers in Dindori, Madhya Pradesh, and its relationship with their profiles. Millets, despite their nutritional and cultural importance, have seen a decline in cultivation due to shifts toward commercial crops. Tribal millet farmers face significant marketing challenges, including limited market access, lack of knowledge, and weak bargaining power. A sample of 120 respondents from six villages was analyzed using a structured interview schedule. Results revealed that most of the respondents exhibited medium-level marketing behaviour. Key factors influencing marketing behaviour include education, landholding size, gender, and cosmopolitan exposure. Education had the strongest positive effect, while gender showed a significant negative influence, with men more involved in marketing activities than women. Larger landholdings and exposure to external markets also positively impacted marketing behaviour. Variables such as age, family size, total annual income, annual income from millet cultivation, extension contact, social participation, economic motivation, and risk preference were found to be non-significant. The findings highlighted the need for targeted interventions, including educational initiatives, gender empowerment, and stronger market linkages, to enhance the marketing practices of tribal millet growers and support the sustainability of millet farming in this region.

We describe a method for constraining Laplacian and Dirac spectra of two dimensional compact orientable hyperbolic spin manifolds and orbifolds. The key ingredient is an infinite family of identities satisfied by the spectra. These spectral identities follow from the consistency between 1) the spectral decomposition of functions on the spin bundle into irreducible representations of SL(2,R) and 2) associativity of pointwise multiplication of functions. Applying semidefinite programming methods to our identities produces rigorous upper bounds on the Laplacian spectral gap as well as on the Dirac spectral gap conditioned on the former. In several examples, our bounds are nearly sharp; a numerical algorithm based on the Selberg trace formula shows that the [0;3,3,5] orbifold, a particular surface with signature [1;3], and the Bolza surface nearly saturate the bounds at genus 0, 1 and 2 respectively. Under additional assumptions on the number of harmonic spinors carried by the spin-surface, we obtain more restrictive bounds on the Laplacian spectral gap. In particular, these bounds apply to hyperelliptic surfaces. We also determine the set of Laplacian spectral gaps attained by all compact orientable two-dimensional hyperbolic spin orbifolds. We show that this set is upper bounded by 12.13798; this bound is nearly saturated by the [0;3,3,5] orbifold, whose first non-zero Laplacian eigenvalue is λ^(0)_1 ≈ 12.13623.

The purpose of this study is to examine how the concept of representative values has been addressed in the curriculum and textbooks throughout the history of Korea’s mathematics curriculum, and to derive pedagogical implications for teaching the data and probability domain in middle school. To achieve this, this study collected official mathematics curriculum documents promulgated in Korea and analyzed the teaching and learning content and methods related to representative values for each curriculum period. Additionally, it investigated the differences and trends across curriculum periods. Furthermore, this study analyzed 46 middle school textbooks, including those reflecting the 2007 Revised Curriculum through the 2022 Revised Curriculum. Using an analytical framework based on four characteristics of data―(1) the type of data, (2) the presence of extreme values, (3) the overall distribution of the data, and (4) the properties of a good estimator―it examined the types and features of inquiry activities used to introduce representative values in textbooks across curriculum periods. It also explored the types and trends of problems reflecting the connections between various visual representations and representative values. The findings indicate that while almost all textbooks explicitly or implicitly reflect factors such as the purpose of the data, the form of the data, the presence of extreme values, and the properties of a good estimator in the development of the representative value unit, relatively few textbooks consider the overall distribution of the data. Based on these findings, this study provides pedagogical implications and recommendations that teachers can reference when designing and implementing lessons on data and probability domain for middle school.
A Study on Methods for Improving the Performance of Descriptive Answer Clustering in Schools: Focusing on Tokenizer and Feature Extraction

Published: January 2025

A model capable of automatically categorizing or clustering student responses based on solution strategies would significantly benefit the operation of descriptive assessments in schools. Although research on clustering methods for descriptive answers has been conducted, there is still room for improvement as these methods have not fully reflected the unique characteristics of mathematical descriptive answers. Accordingly, this study proposes a method to improve existing clustering approaches by developing a tokenizer more suitable for mathematics and utilizing N-gram extraction of variables in mathematical expressions for clustering. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, responses to five descriptive questions were collected, and the performance of clustering models applying the proposed method was compared with existing approaches. The results demonstrated that the new tokenizer and feature extraction method maintained or improved performance across most clustering models. This study is significant in demonstrating that incorporating the characteristics of mathematical descriptive answers into tokenization and variable extraction techniques can enhance clustering performance, providing an effective approach for grading assistance in descriptive assessments.
