Forged Letters. Counterfeit Manumission Certificates and Subaltern Writing Practices as Used by Enslaved Individuals in Early Modern Iberia
Authors: Bouza Fernando
Published: July 2024

The focus of the essay is the fabrication, circulation and use of ‘forged documents’ by subaltern groups, and in particular, counterfeit manumission certificates created for and by enslaved individuals in Iberia during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The analysis of ‘forged documents’ provides a deeper insight into how official model documents were appropriated by these subaltern illiterate groups. Furthermore, it provides a testimony of the dynamics of subaltern responses to documentary norms and models along the lines discussed by Donald F. McKenzie.
People, Pamphlets and Popular Mobilisation in the Aragonese Rebellion of 1591
Authors: Gascón Pérez Jesús
Published: July 2024

In 1591, Philip II faced a revolt from his Aragonese subjects. A good number of nobles, priests and citizens were involved in the rebellion, but artisans, farmers and other members of the people also played a role in it. The article focuses on this important conflict, emphasising the relevance of popular intervention and how it was mobilised by the pamphlets which the leaders of the movement commissioned and spread by diverse means in order to gain the support of the less privileged ranks of Aragonese society. In this sense, the Aragonese Rebellion of 1591 offers a good example of popular mobilisation and of the limits of popular agency within a political conflict during the Early Modern Age.
The Memory of Rebellion (Lyon, 1529)
Authors: Béroujon Anne
Published: July 2024

The first half of the sixteenth century saw an explosion of popular revolts throughout Europe. Focusing on the French city of Lyon, the article analyses written expressions of revolt, including street bills, posters and, indirectly, oral relays. In April 1529, the city was devastated by the Grande Rebeyne (great revolt), triggered by a placard accusing the municipality of incompetence and corruption and calling for a riot. Despite the harsh repression, others appeared in the following years in an effort to rekindle the flame of rebellion. How did these writings come down to us and under what conditions were they produced? Despite the anonymous popular signature, did they really express the views of subaltern people? Can the precedents and customs on which they rely be reconstructed, given that the archives were jealously preserved by the municipal councillors? How does a chain of insurrectionary writings take shape over time and is there evidence of re-use in popular memory? Drawing on rare traces produced chiefly by political elites (handwritten consular archives and sixteenth- and seventeenth-century histories of Lyon), the article seeks to answer these questions and to counterbalance the dominant discourse by articulating the written protest and the social memory emerging from it.

Published: July 2024

Background: Cervical insufficiency is one of the causes of preterm birth. The object of the study was to compare maternal and neonatal outcomes with different cerclage indications in Dhofar region, Oman.  
Methods: It is a retrospective observational study. Data was collected from the electronic medical records system on standardized Performa in an Excel sheet. All cases of singleton pregnancy that underwent cervical cerclage were studied for the duration of 1/1/2018 – 30/4/2020 (28 months) at Sultan Qaboos Hospital, Salalah, Oman. Statistical analysis was done on SPSS-24.  P-value ≤ 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: We had 86 cases with cerclage included in the study, eight of which were lost from follow-up, therefore, analysis of 78 cases was done. Out of 78 cases, 61 were history indicated, 12 were ultrasound indicated and 5 were rescue cerclages. The 3 women had a bicornuate uterus. Maternal age and BMI were comparable in all groups.15 (19%) delivered before 32weeks, 151(19%) cases at 33-36weeks and 48(61.5%) at 37 weeks and more results were not significant in < 32 weeks group. The mode of delivery was vaginal 52(66.7%) and 21(27%) had cesarean section There were five miscarriages, 2 intrauterine fetal deaths (IUFD), and 4 early neonatal deaths (ENND). There were 5 cases of preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), two abruptions and 2 cases had chorioamnionitis with septic shock. Cerclage to delivery interval in most cases was >20 weeks (3-26 weeks). Neonatal survival was comparable in history-indicated and ultrasound-indicated groups 87% and 91.7% respectively. 8 (10%) cases were admitted to the special care baby unit (SCBU) out of which 4 had early neonatal death due to extreme prematurity.
Conclusion: The length of the cervix is reciprocally related to the risk of premature delivery. Therefore, the diagnosis and management of a short cervix is a substantial challenge in obstetrics.  Ultrasound-indicated had almost similar outcomes as history indicated. Rescue cerclage is worth attempting to improve fetal outcomes.
Keywords: Cervical cerclage, cervical insufficiency, Preterm delivery, Second Trimester Miscarriages, Neonatal survival.

BACKGROUND : The upper respiratory tract is susceptible to inflammation caused by exposure to airborne contaminants, particularly chemical irritants. Inhaled irritant gases can lead to various symptoms and adverse reactions in the respiratory tract. Laboratory workers are at a high risk of respiratory tract inflammation due to exposure to volatile chemicals. The use of personal protective equipment (PPE), such as masks, is essential to prevent inflammation and protect the respiratory tract. Lung function tests using spirometry, including Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1.0), and Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF), can help identify abnormalities in lung function.
AIMS :  The primary objective of this investigation is to juxtapose the pulmonary conditions of laboratory workers before and after the utilization of KN95® masks and Acchadana® masks.
METHOD : The study design was a Randomized Control Trial, and the subjects were divided into two groups: the control group wearing KN95 masks and the treatment group wearing Acchadana® herbal masks. Spirometry measurements were taken before and after using the masks, and statistical analysis was conducted to compare the results.
RESULT :  The results showed that both mask groups experienced improvements in lung function parameters after using the masks. However, the KN95 mask group showed better lung conditions compared to the Acchadana® mask group.
CONCLUSION : Spirometry tests conducted on lab workers revealed improved lung function metrics (including FVC, FEV1.0, and PEF) following the usage of KN95 masks and Acchadana® herbal masks. The KN95 mask users exhibited superior respiratory health compared to the other group in this investigation.

This study investigated the influence of in ovo administration of oyster mushroom aqueous extract on intestinal development of broiler chickens. A total of 600 hatching eggs of Arbor acre strain of broiler chickens were used in this experiment. The eggs were divided into three treatments; T1: Control (non-injected eggs), T2: in ovo administration of 0.1 ml of oyster mushroom aqueous extract and T3: in ovo administration of 0.2 ml of oyster mushroom aqueous extract. In ovo injection of eggs was carried out on the 18th day of incubation and hatched chicks were brooded for 2 weeks and the experiment lasted for six weeks. At the starter and finisher (7th and 56th days of age) phases, two birds per replicate were randomly selected for intestinal evaluation. Data collected were subjected to Analysis of Variance using General Linear Model. Results from the starter phase showed jejunal villus height significantly (p<0.05) ranged from 290.62 µm in birds in T1 to 415.60 µm in birds in the T3 group. Moreover, jejunal crypt depth ranged from 51.96 µm to 115.62 µm, while muscular wall thickness ranged from 53.94 µm to 139.23 µm with the highest recorded in the T2 birds. In finisher broilers, there was significant (p<0.05) difference among treatments for duodenum length, muscular wall thickness of the ileum and colon length. Histological plates taken in the starter phase indicated no visible lesion in the villi across treatments with crypts appearing normal. However, finisher broilers in the T2 group had preeminent villi representation showing intact enterocytes and slightly high and more prominent crypts. Therefore, to improve jejunal morphology in the starter phase as well as increased intestinal length and superior duodenal histology in the finisher phase of broiler chickens, in ovo administration of 0.1 ml oyster mushroom aqueous extract is recommended.

Published: July 2024

As lesões traumáticas graves são danos físicos severos resultantes de eventos traumáticos agudos, frequentemente causados por acidentes automobilísticos, quedas de altura, ferimentos por arma de fogo, entre outros. A ação conjunta e multidisciplinar de ortopedistas, traumatologistas e psiquiatras é essencial para o manejo desse perfil de pacientes. Diante disso, é importante fazer uma análise das terapias por meio da abordagem multidisciplinar, tendo em vista que o perfil de paciente que passa por lesões traumáticas é complexo e necessita de inúmeros saberes compartilhados para a promoção de uma assistência adequada. Sendo assim, objetiva-se compreender a relação multidisciplinar para o manejo de pacientes com lesão traumática grave. Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática da literatura, a qual investigou sobre a abordagem multidisciplinar entre médicos ortopedistas, traumatologistas e psiquiatras de pacientes que passaram por lesões traumáticas graves, pela coleta de dados nas plataformas PubMed, LILACS, Periódicos CAPES, EMBASE e Scielo, dos últimos 5 anos. Assim, os estudos revisados destacam a relevância crítica da abordagem multidisciplinar na gestão de pacientes com trauma ortopédico, enfatizando a interação complexa entre fatores psicológicos e resultados clínicos. A pesquisa evidencia que a presença de transtornos como ansiedade e depressão está associada a desfechos cirúrgicos adversos, influenciando diretamente a recuperação funcional e a qualidade de vida pós-operatória. A implementação de estratégias integrativas, incluindo triagem sistemática e intervenções psicossociais, emerge como fundamental para otimizar o cuidado desses pacientes, mitigando os efeitos negativos dos opioides no manejo da dor e promovendo uma abordagem holística na prática clínica.

A sífilis, uma patologia causada pela bactéria Treponema pallidum, possui diversas maneiras de contraí-la, podendo ser categorizada como adquirida quando há o contágio por meio de contato sexual ou transfusão sanguínea. É um problema de saúde pública no Brasil, sendo uma doença altamente prevalente. Felizmente, há uma ferramenta simples disponível para o seu diagnóstico: o teste rápido. O objetivo é examinar quantitativamente a incidência da doença e descrever qualitativamente os fatores associados, como escolaridade materna, realização de pré-natal e idade das mães. O estudo é ecológico, observacional e temporal, abrangendo as regiões Norte e Sudeste do Brasil, com dados coletados do DATASUS em março de 2024. Os resultados indicam uma redução significativa nos casos de sífilis congênita em ambas as regiões. Observou-se que, no Norte, predominam as mães com ensino fundamental incompleto, enquanto no Sudeste, a maioria tem ensino médio completo. Em ambas as regiões, uma parcela significativa das mães não realizou pré-natal, e a faixa etária mais afetada é de 20 a 24 anos. As diferenças na densidade populacional entre as regiões foram notáveis.

Introdução: A Pneumonia Adquirida na Comunidade (PAC) constitui uma das principais causas de mortalidade e hospitalizações a nível mundial. A PAC consiste em uma infecção aguda de caráter respiratório que atinge diretamente os pulmões, podendo ser de origem bacteriana ou viral e acomete os alvéolos. Os princiais agentes são os vírus, apesar de que o patógeno Streptococcus pneumoniae, até os dias atuais, representa um significativo número de casos. A doença representa uma importante causa de internação hospitalar. Portanto, cabe a necessidade de investigação de recursos que fundamentem a tomada de decisão, como o uso da ferramenta  CURB-65, criado em 2003 pela British Thoracic Society. Objetivo: Evidenciar utilização do CURB-65 para avaliação de gravidade e direcionamento ao tratamento clínico da Pneumonia Adquirida na Comunidade. Método: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa de literatura, um instrumento da prática baseada em evidências. Inicialmente, foi formulada a seguinte questão de pesquisa: “Quais as evidências da utilização do CURB-65 para avaliação de gravidade e direcionamento ao tratamento clínico da Pneumonia Adquirida na Comunidade?”. A análise de dados foi proveniente da Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde nas bases de dados da Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS) e Medical Literature Analysis and Retrievel System Online (MEDLINE). A partir da busca inicial, ocorrida de junho a julho de 2024, oito (8) foram condizentes com a questão de pesquisa. Resultados e Discussão: O CURB-65 torna possível a avaliação precoce da gravidade clínica, uma vez que atribuiu-se valores ao quadro de saúde apresentado pelo paciente. Verifica-se que os modelos preditivos, como o CURB-65, são ferramentas fundamentais à Saúde Pública, uma vez que auxiliam na tomada de decisão. Em vista do exposto, as decisões são fundamentais à segurança do paciente e ao uso racional de recursos. Isso porque a admissão no período tardio na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva apontam para a elevação nas taxas de mortalidade. Conclusão: Compreendeu-se, ao final da pesquisa, que o escore constitui uma ferramenta essencial à prática clínica e o manejo adequado constitui uma atribuição indispensável ao profissional de saúde. Desse modo, objetiva-se, primordialmente, a ocorrência de desfechos assertivos ao tempo em que há a redução da mortalidade.
Systemic Analysis of the Translation of Cultural Elements in English and French Versions of Mofolo’s Moeti oa Bochabela
Authors: Seutla Lieketso Agatha
Published: July 2024

This study analyses the translation of cultural elements in the two translations of Thomas Mofolo’s Moeti oa Bochabela. The research objectives sought to identify the cultural elements in the two translations, the techniques and strategies used in rendering them, bring out the discrepancies in translating cultural elements in the two translations and suggest improvements for inadequate translations. Data was collected from the three novels and other documents after which a comparative analysis was done. The current study was guided by Descriptive Translation Studies (DTS), Philological theories of translation, Skopos Theory, Manipulation Theory and Socio-Linguistic Theory. Its findings reveal that the techniques that were used to render cultural elements in the corpus under study include literal translation, borrowing and calque, which are source text-oriented, and cultural equivalence, explicitation, reformulation, expansion, description, transposition, adaptation and omission, which are target text-oriented. The two categories of techniques fall under foreignization and domestication strategies respectively. The study also shows that in both translations, the cultural elements were more domesticated than foreignized. The English translation has more foreignization than the French one while the French translation has more domestication than the English version. Although not in all cases, there are discrepancies in the rendering of cultural elements in the two translations.
The Effect of Recycling Vocabulary on Foreign Language Learning
Authors: HAMDANE Mohamed , HAMDANE Ali
Published: July 2024

The recycling method is frequently given a tiny proportion, if not neglected, in the practice of foreign language settings, although the multiple exposure strategy to language was given substantial priority in the theory and study of second language acquisition. This experimental study used a pre-and-post-testing design and a post-teaching intervention to examine the impact of vocabulary recycling on the learning of English as a foreign language. To assess the impact of the vocabulary recycling strategy, the researchers compared the experimental group of 33 high school student's vocabulary production on writing assessments before and after the intervention to the control group of 33 students with equal levels of homogeneity. The statistical differences in the post-test between the groups demonstrated that a vocabulary-revisiting strategy is compulsory for enhancing young learners' productive abilities, particularly writing. The derived conclusions suggest significant implications for pedagogical practices and pave the way for future research in this arena.

During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, various research disciplines collaborated to address the impacts of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 infections. This paper presents an interpretability analysis of a convolutional neural network-based model designed for COVID-19 detection using audio data. We explore the input features that play a crucial role in the model’s decision-making process, including spectrograms, fundamental frequency (F0), F0 standard deviation, sex, and age. Subsequently, we examine the model’s decision patterns by generating heat maps to visualize its focus during the decision-making process. Emphasizing an explainable artificial intelligence approach, our findings demonstrate that the examined models can make unbiased decisions even in the presence of noise in training set audios, provided appropriate preprocessing steps are undertaken. Our top-performing model achieves a detection accuracy of 94.44%. Our analysis indicates that the analyzed models prioritize high-energy areas in spectrograms during the decision process, particularly focusing on high-energy regions associated with prosodic domains, while also effectively utilizing F0 for COVID-19 detection.
Wine intake and 45-year mortality in middle-aged men with high alcohol consumption: The Italian rural areas of the Seven Countries Study
Authors: Puddu Paolo Emilio , Menotti Alessandro
Published: July 2024

Research into the relationship between alcohol consumption and health has a long-standing history. Previous studies have revealed the beneficial effects of moderate alcohol consumption on cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all-cause mortality compared to abstainers and heavy drinkers. To study the long-term impact of wine intake on mortality, we conducted a study involving 1284 men aged 45 – 64 years in 1965, followed over a period of 45 years. We analyzed their wine-drinking habits in relation to all-cause mortality and specific causes using the Cox model. In addition, we utilized a multiple regression model with age at death as the dependent variable adjusted for age, smoking habits, body mass index, physical activity, dietary score, and comorbidity index. At baseline, 97.7% of participants were drinkers, consuming alcohol at an average of 77.4 g/day (mostly from wine). After 45 years, 98.4% of men had passed away. Our findings revealed a J-shaped relationship between alcohol intake and mortality from major CVD and all causes, while the relationship was roughly linear for cancer and liver cirrhosis. The relationship with CVD and all-cause mortality remained J-shaped, even when abstainers were excluded from the analysis, indicating potential health benefits for those consuming an average of 52 g/day (range: 47 – 70 g) and a 34% excess in mortality for those consuming an average of 176 g/day (range: 142 – 570 g). The average age at death for the reference class was 3.5 years higher compared to abstainers and 3.8 years higher compared to the upper class (average: 176 g/day). Reducing alcohol intake during the first 20 years of follow-up was beneficial in terms of life expectancy. In a lifetime follow-up, the relationship between alcohol consumption and mortality formed a J-shaped curve for CVD and all-cause mortality, even when excluding abstainers. Thus, relatively high wine consumption is more beneficial than lower intakes, especially when associated with vigorous physical activity at work – a common practice among rural men in the 1960s.

Authors: Mondal Surajit , Shubhra Goswami Shankha
Published: July 2024

Additive manufacturing (AM) processes have revolutionized manufacturing industries by enabling the production of complex geometries with reduced material waste and lead times. However, ensuring the quality of AM parts remains a significant challenge due to the complexity of the process and inherent variability in material properties. This review investigates the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance quality assurance in AM processes, focusing on specific machine learning techniques such as convolutional neural networks for defect detection, support vector machines for classification of material properties, and reinforcement learning for real-time process optimization. The AI-driven methodologies are applied to predict defects, optimize process parameters, and monitor real-time production quality, utilizing large datasets generated from sensors and in-situ monitoring systems. The study demonstrates significant improvements in the accuracy of defect detection, the reliability of material property classification, and the efficiency of process optimization. In addition, it addresses challenges such as data pre-processing, model interpretability, and integration with existing AM systems. The findings highlight the potential of AI to transform quality assurance in AM and outline future research directions for further integration and enhancement of AI techniques in AM.

Prevalensi merokok di Kabupaten Indramayu kelompok umur ≥ 10 tahun sebesar 28,87% untuk yang perokok setiap hari, dan 3,56% untuk perokok kadang-kadang. Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui implementasi Kebijakan Perda No 8 Tahun 2016 tentang KTR di Kabupaten Indramayu (Studi Kasus Tahun 2016-2021). Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus. Informan dalam penelitian ini berjumlah 12, Informan Utama yaitu Ketua DPRD, Kasie Promkes Dinkes, dan Kasie Bina Masyarakat Satpol PP, Informan Triangulasi yaitu LSM dan 8 penanggungjawab tempat KTR. Hasil penelitian menyatakan bahwa penyebaran informasi sudah disampaikan kepada dinas-dinas dan eksekutif lain, sosialisasi belum mertata dan belum secara konsisten. Penyediaan fasilitas ruangan khusus merokok masih belum semua menyediakan, alokasi berasal dari APBD dan BOK, Rambu "dilarang merokok" sudah diterapkan yang tidak menerapkan di angkot dan terminal. Penyediaan asbak di lakukan di tempat ibadah, tempat kerja dan tempat lainnya, kerja sama lintas sektor sudah dilakukan, penerapan KTR belum berjalan optimal dikarenakan masih terdapat kawasan yang belum mempunyai Satgas dan SOP. Simpulan dalam penelitian ini dilihat dari faktor komunikasi, sumber daya, disposisi dan struktur birokrasi masih belum optimal. Oleh sebab itu disarankan agar meningkatkan faktor-faktor yang dapat mempengaruhi proses implementasi kebijakan publik.

Authors: Khalid Mohd , Akgül Ali
Published: July 2024

The Formable integral transform for the Hilfer-Prabhakar and Prabhakar fractional derivatives, as well as their regularised forms, are derived in this article. We solve several Cauchy-type fractional differential equations with Hilfer-Prabhakar fractional derivatives by applying the Formable integral and Fourier transformations in their entirety, including the three-parameter Mittag-Leffler function. With the help of analytical solutions and improved comprehension of complicated fractional differential equations, this work expands the use of integral transforms in fractional calculus across a range of scientific and engineering fields.

In this work, Adomian decomposition method (ADM) based on Hilfer derivative is proposed to solve nonlinear fuzzy fractional gas dynamic equation. We reform the provided fractional gas dynamic equation into fuzzy Hilfer fractional differential equation. Subsequently with description of Hilfer fractional derivative and suitable initial conditions under fuzzy sense, we obtain approximate solution to the given problem. This method provides an analytical solution in the form of infinite power series. The behavior of the solution is illustrated using graphical representation.

Kebutuhan terhadap koneksi internet yang baik semakin meningkat untuk menunjang kebutuhan transferdata pada layanan VPN. Kebutuhan akan bandwidth yang stabil, tidak adanya packet loss serta latency yang rendahmenjadi indikator akan hal tersebut. Penggunaan dedicated line sebagai koneksi internet diharapkan menjadi solusiuntuk memenuhi kebutuhan tersebut, namun kenyataan dilapangan menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan bandwidtholeh user memiliki peranan lebih penting sebab walaupun dengan bandwidth yang tetap namun tidak adanya kontrolakan penggunaan didalamnya hal tersebut akan sia-sia. Oleh karenanya diperlukan suatu metode untukmeningkatkan performansi agar penggunaan tetap optimal disamping adanya penambahan bandwidth sebagaipilihan terakhir.Metode traffic shaping pada intinya bertujuan untuk mengatur penggunaan bandwidth berdasarkan prioritasatau aturan tertentu. Hal tersebut karena umumnya penggunaan dedicated line sebagai akses internet pada VPNmemerlukan bandwidth yang cukup, sehingga proses upload dan download data dari dan ke arah server tidakterganggu karena faktor ketersediaan bandwidth. Sebagai acuan dari performansi dilakukan pengujian terhadapketersediaan bandwidth yaitu menampilkan kondisi sebelum dan sesudah implementasi untuk melihat besarbandwidth yang didapat oleh server serta faktor latency dan throughput untuk melihat peningkatan performa.Parameter latency menunjukan ada penurunan dari besaran rata-rata nilai sebelum (351 ms) dan sesudahimplementasi (292 ms) dan untuk throughput menampilkan peningkatan dari mulai beban data paling rendah (32byte) yaitu dari 91,168 kbps menjadi 109,580 kbps hingga beban paling tinggi (1024 byte) yaitu 1361,702 kbpsmenjadi 1917,660 kbps.Kata kunci : VPN, traffic shaping, dedicated line, latency, throughput

STUDI SUSUT ENERGI PADA SISTEM DISTRIBUSI TENAGA LISTRIK MELALUI ANALISIS PENGUKURAN DAN PERHITUNGAN
Authors: Sugianto Sugianto , Untara Puspa
Published: July 2024

Pada Saluran Sistem Tenaga Listrik terdapat faktor rugi rugi atau penyusutan dari energi. Penyusutan ini dapat ditemui di berbagai tempat pada saluran tenaga listrik, mulai dari pembangkitan, transmisi, sampai dengan distribusi kepada konsumen. Ada dua jenis penyusutan pada sistem tenaga listrik, yaitu penyusutan teknis dan non-teknis. Penyusutan teknis adalah penyusutan yang terjadi sebagai akibat adanya impedansi pada peralatan pembangkitan maupun peralatan penyaluran dalam transmisi dan distribusi sehingga terdapat daya yang hilang. Penyusutan secara non teknis adalah susut yang disebabkan oleh kesalahan dalam pembacaan alat ukur, kesalahan kalibrasi di alat ukur, dan kesalahan akibat pemakaian yang tidak sah (pencurian) atau kesalahan kesalahan yang bersifat administratif lainnya.
