Published: March 2024

One of the problems at SMPN 2 Batukliang Utara is the lack of literacy and numeracy. This is proven by education report cards which show that literacy and numeracy scores are still lacking. In reality, not all students are able to achieve the expected competencies. This inability to understand scientific concepts is caused by the difficulties faced by students in responding to the learning given, which has an impact on students' low literacy and numeracy skills. To overcome this problem, of course appropriate learning media is needed. Learning media is also an important part of the learning process, so it is necessary to look for creative learning media that allows students to understand the material. The presence of campus students teaching here can become partners for teachers in implementing innovation in learning, and learning models that are creative, innovative and fun. In this program, campus teaching students are responsible for assisting the school in the teaching and learning process, as well as school adaptation. Apart from that, students also have a responsibility to improve student literacy and numeracy. The results of this program are expected to increase the literacy and numeracy levels of students at SMP Negeri 2 Batukliang Utara.

Mengatasi Siswa Sekolah Dasar yang Kesulitan dalam Mengerjakan Soal Matematika dengan Pendekatan Segitiga Restitusi
Authors: Maryanto Maryanto , Fatimah Siti
Published: March 2024

The aim of this research is to describe a model for overcoming elementary school students who have difficulty working on mathematics problems using the restitution triangle approach. Difficulty working on math problems is part of the difficulty learning mathematics. Difficulty learning mathematics is generally defined as a condition where students are unable to learn mathematics subjects completely. The restitution triangle was originally a step towards positively disciplining students. The restitution triangle approach contains aspects of a humanist approach for students. There are three steps to the restitution triangle approach, starting from stabilizing identity. This step builds confidence in students that everyone has experienced mistakes in doing questions. So that students do not feel mentally down. The second step is Validation of Incorrect Actions. In this step, students are invited to reflect on any part of the problem they got wrong and are guided to correct it, there is a remedial learning process. The third step asks about beliefs. In this step, students' motivation is increased so that students now know the steps to work on the questions, and tomorrow they will not make any more mistakes when working on the questions. The results of a literature review found that the stages of the restitution triangle in positive discipline can be used to help overcome elementary school students who have difficulty working on mathematics problems.
Integrative taxonomy supports two new species of Macrobiotus (Tardigrada: Eutardigrada: Macrobiotidae) allowing further discussion on the genus phylogeny
Authors: Stec Daniel
Published: March 2024

In this study, I describe two new species of Macrobiotus based on morphological data collected through light and scanning electron microscopy. Both species are accompanied by DNA sequences from four commonly used molecular markers (18S rDNA, 28S rDNA, ITS-2, and COI). Macrobiotus ovovittatus sp. nov. was discovered in Greenland and can be distinguished from similar taxa of Macrobiotus by its continuous, solid, and clearly wrinkled egg surface, adorned with sparse, very small and irregularly spaced pores. Additionally, the terminal discs of egg processes are covered in multiple light-refracting dots, resembling crocheted napkins. Macrobiotus mileri sp. nov. was found in Israel and is characterized by unique pore arrangements in its body cuticle, expressed in two distinct animal forms: (i) forma porata with large pores arranged in five distinct patches and (ii) forma aporata with single, almost undetectable pores. It also features weakly defined convex terminal discs with smooth edges. Furthermore, the phylogenetic analyses conducted in this study offer the most updated phylogeny of superclade I within the family Macrobiotidae. This facilitates additional discussion concerning the interrelationships among species within the genus Macrobiotus and the circumscription of species groups within it.

ЧАСТНЫЕ КНИЖНЫЕ КОЛЛЕКЦИИ АЛМАТЫ: ВОПРОСЫ И ПРОБЛЕМЫ
Authors: Тұяқбаев Өмір
Published: March 2024

Несомненно, культурное наследие, оставленное каждым поколением, подлежит сохранению, исследованию и приумножению. Особое место в структуре этого наследия на ряду библиотек и музей занимает частная коллекция. Частные коллекции вполне могут отражать историческое развитие культуры страны и мировой культуры в целом. Но, как ни странно, этот перечень в стране традиционно не включает научное изучение артефактов, что не вполне, может быть, отвечает современным реалиям. Научная атрибуция коллекционных предметов и возможность обретения частными коллекциями «академического характера» очень важна, как и музейных, библиотечных фондов, так как личная коллекция вполне может стать поводом для гордости целой страны и служить воплощением национального духа.

В этой связи необходимо также отметить и существующие, ждущие своего часа проблемы, связанные с учетом и обследованием частных собраний с тем, чтобы в будущем можно было бы создать условия для их изучения и ввода в научный оборот.

В представленной статье поднимаются и рассматриваются актуальные вопросы и проблемы, с которыми часто сталкиваются частные коллекционеры рукописей г. Алматы.
МЕСТНЫЕ ПОДРАЖАНИЯ МОНЕТАМ ДИНАСТИИ ТАН В ДЕНЕЖНОМ ОБРАЩЕНИИ СЕМИРЕЧЬЯ
Authors: Камышев Александр
Published: March 2024

Основным источником для изучения денежного обращения в Семиречье во времена правления карлуков являются нумизматические находки. Бронзовые литые подражания монетам династии Тан, которые получили широкое распространение в середине IX – начале Х вв., дают минимальную информацию о времени и месте их изготовления. Изучению были подвергнуты сначала Семиреченские местные подражания монетам династии Тан (330 экз.), собранные в восточной части Чуйской долины на городищах Ак-Бешим, Красная Речка, Шиш-Тюбе и Бурана. Монеты визуально были разделены по степени деградации монетного типа. Проведен сравнительный анализ подражательных монет с указанных городищ и находок с округи Тараза. В качестве разновидностей выделены несколько подражаний тюргешским монетам. Некоторые имитируют утяжеленные монеты с рунической буквой «r», похожей на букву «М», которая просматривается на реверсе. Подражания обычным тюргешским образцам имеют круглое отверстие и полностью оплывшую легенду. На основе статистического анализа разнообразных типов подражаний с городищ Чуйской и Таласской долин делается вывод об инициации их выпуска не государством (централизованно), а городскими властями для обеспечения нужд местных рынков.
EKSPANSI POLITIK BANI UMAYYAH
Authors: Murtadho Ibnu
Published: March 2024

Abstrak
Ekspansi militer Islam menurut Montgomerry Watt disebut sebagai jihad atau perang suci tidaklah mutlak kebenarannya, karena tidak ada misi agama yang khusus dalam hal ini Islam, tuduhan bahwa Islam disebarkan dengan kekuatan senjata dan bahwa orang-orang disuruh memeluk ‘Islam atau pedang’, hanya benar pada batas tertentu. Muawwiyah memegang jabatan sebegai khalifah pertama dinasti Umayyah dengan penuh pada periode 660-680 M, daerah yang berhasil ditaklukan kembali adalah front Timur dikendalikan oleh Panglima dan Gubernur Ziyad bin Abih yang setelah menaklukan Mekran, Sizistan, dan Kabul juga berhasil ke Sugdiana, (Barangkali Shughud daerah kekuasaan salah satu anak suku dari bangsa Turki), ekspedisi ini dipimpin oleh putranya Ziyad bin Abih dan Ubaidillah.
Terlepas dari beberapa kontroversi yang terjadi pada masa dinasti Umayyah, sekiranya dapat diakui bahwa ekspansi terluas bangsa Arab terjadi pada era dinasti Umayyah ini. Berbicara mengenai sejarah, suatu kajian tentang masa lampau perlu kiranya rujukan yang matang, ini biasanya menjadi kendala karena sedikitnya sejarah yang mencatat keotentikan peristiwa. Pada masa ini pula Islam mengembangkan sayapnya jauh ke Afrika Timur, Eropa, Asia guna memperlancar dakwah Islam

Die Wiederentdeckung dreier Mörserkanonen (Bombarden) aus der Waffenkammer der Stadt Hermannstadt (16. Jh.)
Authors:   Muzeul Național Brukenthal Sibiu, Malanca Răzvan
Published: March 2024

The invention of gunpowder in the 9th century can be seen like mankind being gifted fire for a second time. In the centuries to follow it had many practical applications, but the first ballistic usage of gunpowder is mentioned in the 13th century. Shortly after, in the 14th century, the first cannons were created. These empiric versions of artillery objects were bulky and cumbersome metal cannons called bombards. They were cast out of copper alloy such as bronze, or they were made out of iron. The focus of this paper lies on the latter and for that reason a short understanding of metallurgy was necessary. Period documents show that, in the Transylvanian city of Sibiu, there were active workshops for casting cannons since the late 14th century. Geopolitical turmoil in the 15th century forces Transylvanian cities to amass a great deal of fire weapons and arms. Further inquiry showed that in Sibiu, in the 16th century, amongst the weapons being made and kept in the city's arsenal were three mortar canons. Since a great number of the original arsenal is still in existence in the history museum of Sibiu but the collection lacks artillery pieces such as cannons, bombards or mortars, such weapons were considered to be lost throughout history. This paper aims to remediate these by giving back to the city's community its three cast iron mortar cannons.
Rumänische Schüler am Evangelischen Gymnasium in Schäßburg in der Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts
Authors:   Muzeul de Istorie Sighișoara, Teșculă Nicolae
Published: March 2024

The town on the Târnava Mare river has a rich school tradition, the first educational institution being documented in 1522. The 19th century brings an evolution of the school in Sighișoara, both through reforms in the educational field, marked by the introduction of modern pedagogical precepts, and through the diversification of school institutions from the point of view of the nationalities that lived in the city as well as of the specialization of schools. From the fourth decade of the 19th century, students of Romanian nationality began to be enrolled at the prestigious Evangelic Gymnasium in Sighișoara, and the increase in their number became exponential starting from the sixth decade of the 19th century. We link this increase on the one hand to the significant evolution of the number of Romanians and Hungarians living in the city, and on the other hand to their economic ascendancy during this period. Among the enrolled students are the sons of priests and peasants from Sighișoara and the surrounding area, attracted by the reputation of this high-quality educational institution of the Transylvanian Saxons, whose most prestigious graduates could subsequently continue their studies at universities in the empire or the German-speaking area, thus contributing to the formation of a secular intellectual elite that grew stronger and became more involved in the life of the community.

Use of bio-binders for asphalt lazers of pavement structures
Authors: Mladenović Goran , Đorđević Jelena , Milovanović Nikola
Published: March 2024

Bitumen, as the main binder used for the production of asphalt layers of road constructions, is obtained by distilling crude oil, which, as a fossil fuel, will have limited availability in the future and whose exploitation has a significant negative impact on the environment. The concept of bio-binders has recently been developed and refers to binders for asphalt mixtures containing bio-renewable materials. The paper presents the types of biobinders, their application, the basic requirements so that they can be used in asphalt layers, as well as the production procedures. The basic physical and chemical characteristics of bio-oil, as well as the significant characteristics of bio-binders and their influence on the aging resistance of modified bitumens are presented. Finally, the impact of the application of bio-binder on the performance of asphalt mixtures is presented, which depends to a considerable extent on the origin of the biomass used for production of biobinder. Bio-binders generally have a favorable effect on improving the characteristics of asphalt mixtures at low temperatures, but lead to a decrease in the rutting resistance of the mixtures at high temperatures. In addition to this, a description of the application of bio-binders for the rejuvenation of aged bitumen from reclaimed asphalt pavement, which is widely used in the recycling of asphalt mixtures, is presented.
Association of coronary atherosclerosis with stutzerimonas stutzeri strains (HaSa 1, 2, 3, and 4) of biofilmforming bacteria
Authors: Yazan Ismail , Al-Sultan Saba
Published: March 2024

Objective. Coronary atherosclerosis, also known as coronary artery disease, is increasing in developing countries like Iraq. A recent study investigated the presence and potential impact of a bacterial strain called Stutzerimonas stutzeri on coronary atherosclerosis. This research aims to provide insights into this medical concern that has seen a significant surge in cases over the past two decades. Methods. Samples were collected from patients who underwent Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) at the Mosul Center for Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery between 9/10/2022 and 1/3/2023. The samples were obtained from the fluid (blood) coming out from the guiding catheter of the balloon during angioplasty, and then the balloon samples were placed in transport media (Tryptone Soya Broth). Advanced scientific methods, including biochemical tests, the Vitek-2 system, a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), and Molecular methods based on the 16S rRNA gene, were utilized to identify the bacteria. The Nitrogen base sequences were located and compared to those in the NCBI database using BLAST software. Results. New strains of Stutzerimonas stutzeri bacteria were discovered in people with coronary atherosclerosis for the first time. The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) named these new strains as follows: Stutzerimonas stutzeri strain HaSa1, S. stutzeri strain HaSa2, S. stutzeri strain HaSa3, and S. stutzeri strain HaSa4. They have the ability to form biofilms. This was diagnosed with direct smears of balloon samples, smears of isolated bacterial colonies stained with a gram stain, and scanning electron microscope photos of balloon samples. Conclusion. The newly found Stutzerimonas stutzeri strains most likely cause chronic inflammatory responses in people that have atherosclerosis in their coronary arteries by building biofilms.

Cyclosporine or cyclosporine A is an immunosuppressive medicine used after solid organ transplantation -heart, lungs, liver, pancreas, kidney and bone marrow - to prevent organ transplant rejection and to ensure proper functioning of the transplanted organ or bone marrow. It is used in the treatment of a wide range of autoimmune diseases in various branches of medicine -hematology, ophthalmology, dermatology, nephrology, rheumatology and gastroenterology. The discovery of cyclosporine and decades of its use have led to a revolution in transplant medicine. It can be administered intravenously, orally -capsules and oral solutions, intraocularly and by inhalation. Given the successful administration of cyclosporine is the most important factor in effectual therapeutic effect, the nurse must successfully perform all the stages of the administration of oral forms of this drug, which are: medicine storage, preparation for medicine administration, medicine administration, waste disposal and providing education of the patient and family members. During the performance of all these stages, ac-cording to the health care protocol, the nurse must demonstrate dexterity, skill, confidence and a professional attitude towards the patient, while respecting all ethical principles. A successful administration of cyclosporine requires a team approach involving the doctor, nurse, patient and family members, continual professional training, keeping pace with innovations in this field and constant work on improving communication skills.

Malignant diseases represent a significant public health problem worldwide. Annually, over two million new cases are registered worldwide and over 4000 new cases in Serbia. The modern way of life characterized by sedentary behavior and improper diet have significant impact on the risk of disease, recurrence and survival. The role of nutrition is important in the prevention of malignant diseases. Fruits and vegetables (dietary fiber, vitamin C and E), omega-3 fatty acids have a protective effect by reducing oxidative stress and chronic inflammation. On the other hand, a high intake of sugar, saturated fatty acids, red and processed meat and alcohol are potential risk factors, increasing the level of circulating endogenous estrogen, insulin-like growth factor and cytokines. In the prevention of malignant diseases, the Mediterranean diet stands out, which shows the most significant effects in reducing the frequency and improving the survival of patients with malignant diseases.

Optimizing Automatic Voltage Regulation: A Deep Reinforcement Learning Approach
Authors: Mohsen Ahmed , MoustafaHassan M.A.
Published: March 2024

This paper presents a novel approach to enhance the performance of Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) systems in power systems using Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL). The AVR plays a critical role in maintaining voltage stability and ensuring reliable power delivery. However, conventional control strategies, such as PID controllers, have limitations in handling complex and nonlinear power system dynamics. In this study, the application of DRL techniques is explored, particularly the Twin-Delayed Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (TD3) algorithm, to AVR control. This algorithm offers the advantage of handling continuous action spaces and enable the controller to learn optimal control policies directly from the system's state information. The results show that the DRL approach outperforms the traditional PID and Neural Network-based control approaches, with the shortest time response and the best voltage regulation performance. The use of DRL in AVR system control shows promising potential for improving the efficiency and accuracy of power system control. This research provides insights into the advantages of DRL for process control and highlights its potential for future applications in power system control.

Background: Type 2 diabetes (NIDDM) is the commonest form of diabetes constituting nearly 90% of the diabetic population in any country. Iron is an important mineral in normal physiological processes, and ferritin is a specialized iron storage protein, which reflects iron stores in the body. Iron overload is a risk factor for diabetes. The link between iron and diabetes was first recognized in pathologic conditions-hereditary hemochromatosis and thalassemia, but high levels of dietary iron also import diabetes risk. Iron plays a direct and causal role in diabetes pathogenesis mediated both by β-cell failure and insulin resistance. The objective of the study to evaluate serum ferritin level among type 2 diabetes patients. Method: A hospital based observational study a total of 240 subjects among them 60 male diabetes patients and 60 female diabetes patients were recruited. Serum ferritin level were checked in all participants. Results: The mean age of T2DM was 59  14 years and control group was 50  13 years. The BMI of each group was 27.52  2.6 and 24.80  2.4. Ferritin (ng/dL) level in T2 DM subjects was 231  36 and control subjects was 48  22. Serum ferritin level among the study subjects control vs T2 DM, t/p value (8.465/0.0001). Conclusion: From this study it was observed that ferritin level is significantly higher among type 2 diabetes patients.
