Monitoring a metabolic profile of wheat by using FTIR spectroscopy and chemometric methods — concept studies
Authors: Borek-Dorosz Aleksandra , Kurczab Rafał
Published: January 2024

Changes in plants under the influence of a variety of chemical and physical factors are reflected in metabolomic changes. To date, there are very few methods that would allow studying metabolic changes occurring in single cells. Spectroscopic methods especially combined with the chemometrics methods are a very good tool to investigate such changes in metabolomics. Tracking changes in plants is of particular importance in industry, especially when studying how the use of fertilizers affects plants. In this paper, we present preliminary research asa concept of proof to examine whether the use of FTIR (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy) helps to monitor the changes in the metabolomic profile of the plants. For preliminary research, four species of cereals and cuckooflower were used. In this step, it was possible to verify the differences in metabolites that are produced by plants belonging to different families. Then one species of grain was selected and subjected to eleven different physical and chemical factors. Next, the research was expanded to determine the optimal concentration of hydrogen peroxide. FTIR spectra of leaves and extracts of the plants were obtained for all experimental groups and then analyzed with the use of chemometric methods: HCA (hierarchical component analysis) and PCA (Principal component analysis). Those methods were used to help in the interpretation of metabolic changes resulting in the plant in response to external factors.

Authors: Kleszcz Krzysztof , Michoń Katarzyna
Published: January 2024

Manganese concentration in green and black tea (10 samples of each type) was determined by means of graphite-furnace atomic absorption spectrometry. Both the dry leaves and the infusions were analysed. The concentration of manganese in dry leaves was in the range of 502–1277 mg · kg−1 for black tea and 798–1906 mg · kg−1 for green one. Since lemon juice is commonly added for tea to enrich its taste, citric acid was used to simulate lemon juice influence on manganese concentration in the infusions. The infusions prepared with and without citric acid addition were analysed and the results showed significant influence of citric acid on manganese leaching. The average extraction levels of manganese from black tea equal 16% (for non-acidified infusions) and 34% (for acidified ones) while these values for green tea equal 13% and 38%, respectively. Statistical evaluation of the results showed that the differences between acidified and non-acidified infusions were statistically significant. High manganese content makes the tea an important source of manganese in human diet.

Authors: Kalsoom Sidra , Masood Sajid
Published: January 2024

Despite numerous interventions from the national and international governments and NGOs, the provision of education for children with individual needs has always been a challenge in Pakistan. Including children with particular needs in the regular education system is the first step towards achieving the target of a hundred per cent literacy rate. To achieve the target, teachers need to assess the training needs of including all the children with diverse needs. The current study comprises seven elements, including awareness, collaboration/relationship, curriculum, assessment, instructions, in-class support, and professional training (Jardí et al., 2021; Minondo et al., 2001). The phenomenology research design was used in this study to illustrate the training needs and get similar and contrasting patterns from responses of the four cases. Findings from all four participants demonstrated that teachers have a perception of commitment and high determination about inclusion. Still, there is a need for training teachers to differentiate according to the student's individual needs. All the participants were enthusiastic to include all the children with individual needs.

Authors: Titahelu Juanrico Alfaromona Sumarezs , Sopacua Margie Gladies , Supusepa Reimon , Latupeirissa Julianus Edwin
Published: January 2024

Objective: Terror is different from war; acts of terrorism are not subject to the procedures of warfare because the implementation is always sudden and the target victims are often civilians who are in crowded places. In early 2018, the tragedy of terrorism inmates at the Mobile Brigade Command Detention Center (Mako Brimob) in Kelapa Dua, Santa Maria Tak Bercela Church, GKI Diponegoro, Surabaya Central Pentecostal Church Sawahan Congregation, and Makassar Cathedral Church in March 2021 shook hearts with extraordinary horror. In an instant, there were victims of death, trauma, injuries, and lifelong disabilities. So that this can be categorized as a crime against humanity and a serious threat to the sovereignty of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia.   Purposes of the Research:  This research aims to examine and discuss the process of proving participation in the crime of terrorism in Indonesia.   Methods: This type of research is normative juridical research, conducted by examining library materials or secondary data using a statutory and conceptual approach.   Results and Discussion/Value: Judges play a crucial role in establishing justice during the proof process in the trial of terrorist crimes since the criminal act of terrorism has expanded and taken on multiple interpretations in the law. In order to convict a suspect as a result of an actual act and not just a notion or an ideology that cannot be used as an error, participation must be properly evaluated before labeling the suspect as the culprit in this case.

Authors: Setiawan Kodrat Eko Putro , Suwandi Sarwiji , Winarni Retno
Published: January 2024

Objective: The Toba Batak people in Indonesia have poems that tell about their belief in the natural environment. Sitor Situmorang is a great Indonesian poet from Batak Toba. This study aims to represent the eco-theology of the Toba Batak community as stated in the mystical poems of Sitor Situmorang.
 
Method: This research is qualitative research using ethnographic approaches and interactive models for data analysis techniques. Qualitative research focuses on an in-depth understanding of human behavior, beliefs, and interactions, often by gathering rich narrative details. The ethnographic approach involves researchers who dive directly into the community or context under study to observe and interpret cultural phenomena. Interactive models in data analysis techniques refer to the continuous cycle of data collection, analysis, and interpretation to refine theory and understanding iteratively.
 
Results: The results showed that the natural environment is believed to be controlled by Debata Mulajadi Nabolon and Si Boru Deakparujar (God of Earth, Land, Forest) who taught their descendants to care for the earth and its contents. The Toba Batak people consider land, water, and forests inseparable from human life. Sitor Situmorang's mystical poems became transformative literature used to explore awareness of the natural environment through an ecological vision of human existence in harmony with nature.
 
Conclusions: The belief of the Toba Batak people in Debata Mulajadi Nabolon and Si Boru Deakparujar influenced their views on the importance of maintaining harmony with nature. The mystical poems of Sitor Situmorang are recognized as literary works that play a role in making people aware of the importance of ecological vision and human survival side by side with nature.

Objective: Air Traffic Controller (ATC) is one of the professions that has a high level of stress due to the very heavy burden of PLLU job responsibilities that risk the lives of airplane passengers and all flight crews. Work stress for ATC officers must be avoided because it can affect personal health and productivity at work. ATC officers require a lot of focus and energy that should be balanced with a lot of human resources as well.   Method: This research design is cross-sectional, namely observational research design with a sample size of 65 Air Traffic Controller (ATC) employees selected by proportional random sampling. The SPSS program was used to process data univariately and the Smart PLS program was used to process data bivariately and multivariately using path analysis.   Results: Then, the results showed that there was an effect of tenure on work stress (p=0.025), workload on work stress (p=0.00), age on work productivity (p=0.01), the effect of workload on work productivity (p=0.016), while there was no effect of age on work stress (p=0.22), tenure on work productivity (p=0.692), work stress on work productivity (p=0.46). Based on the intervening test, the indirect effect of age on work productivity through work stress (p=0.6530), the indirect effect of tenure on work productivity through work stress (p=0.542) and the indirect effect of workload on work productivity through stress is (p=0.461).   Conclusion: Age, tenure and workload have a direct and indirect effect on work productivity, while the variables of age on productivity through work stress, tenure on productivity through work stress, and workload on productivity through work stress have no direct effect. Implication of the research: This research can help Air Traffic Controller employees by educating them about the causes of heavy workload and work stress resulting in decreased work productivity.   Originality: This journal presents a study of age, tenure and workload, on work productivity through work stress in Air Traffic Controller employees at Sultan Hasanuddin International Airport Makassar. Previous work stress studies only used questionnaire measuring instruments, so in this study the use of questionnaires was replaced by measuring instruments Cocorometer. This study discusses the effect of age, tenure and workload, on work productivity through work stress. The findings explain the effect of age on work productivity, tenure on stress, workload on stress, and workload on work productivity.

Published: January 2024

Objective: Since the main responsibility of an Air Traffic Controller (ATC) is to prevent and avoid aircraft collisions, occupational safety and health must be a top priority for ATCs to maintain excellent work performance and be able to direct air traffic. ATCs experience high levels of stress at work, which may influence the occurrence of conflict. Through the use of job stress as an intervening variable, this study sought to examine the direct and indirect effects of interpersonal conflict and family problems on employee performance in the Makassar City air traffic control (ATC) workforce.
 
Method: A quantitative study that takes a cross-sectional method. Using a straightforward random selection technique, 100 employees of ATC’s in MATSC served as the sample size. The SPSS program was used to process data univariately and bivariately, and the AMOS program was used to process data multivariately using path analysis.
 
Results: The results showed that there is a direct effect of workplace conflict (p-value = 0.013), family problems (p-value = 0.001), work stress (p-value = 0.047) on employee performance and has an indirect effect of workplace conflict (p-value = 0.005) and family problems (p-value = 0.008) on employee performance through work stress.
 
Conclusion: This demonstrates that workplace conflict and family problems have a direct and indirect impact on employees' performance through job stress as an intervening variable. Future studies are anticipated to look at aspects besides workplace conflict and family problems that can impact employee performance.
 
Implication of the research: This research can be an important topic for discussion at the AirNav Company, so that awareness arises that the company must be able to provide psychological services to Air Traffic Controller (ATC) employees in Makassar City. Then, the results of this study can help employees related to the elements of the onset of conflict in the workplace and family problems that cause work stress so that employee performance decreases.
Originality: This journal presents a study of workplace conflict, family problems and work stress on the performance of Air Traffic Controller employees. Considering that previous studies only tested work stress using a questionnaire measuring instrument, this study uses a work stress measuring instrument, namely a cocorometer, so that it can be a comparison material from previous studies. This study discusses the influence of psychosocial (workplace conflict and family problems) and work stress on job performance in Air traffic controller employees in Makassar City.

Taxonomic spectra of aboriginal and alien flora fractions in some sections of the Trans-siberian railway
Authors: Vinogradova Yulia K.
Published: January 2024

An inventory of “railway” flora within 6 sectors of Trans-Siberian railway with a total length of 5400 km (58% of Transsib) was carried out. It was noted that both, native and alien fractions of the flora, are similar by high proportion of monospecific families and the Asteraceae lead. The alien fraction differs from the native one by a lower total number of families in the taxonomic spectrum, a lower rank of the Poaceae and a higher rank of the Brassicaceae. The leading families triads (the term developed by A.P. Khokhryakov for aboriginal flora of the former USSR) are not applicable for the characterization of the “railway” fl ora. The taxonomic spectrum of “railway” flora depends to a greater extent on (artificially created) edaphic factors than on climatic conditions of the territory which the railroad passes through.

Application of quantumentanglement induced polarizationfor dual-positron and promptgamma imaging
Authors: Romanchek Gregory , Shoop Greyson , Abbaszadeh Shiva
Published: January 2024

The intrinsic resolution of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging is bound by positron range effects, wherein the radioactive decay of the imaging tracer occurs at a disjoint location from positron annihilation. Compounding this issue are the variable ranges positrons achieve, depending on tracer species (the energy they are emitted with) and the medium they travel in (bone vs soft tissue, for example) – causing the range to span more than an order of magnitude across various study scenarios (~0.19 mm to ~6.4 mm). Radioisotopes, such as Zr-89, exhibit dual emissions of positron and prompt gammas, offering an opportunity for accurate tracer positioning as prompt gammas originate from the tracer location. These multi-emission radiotracers have historically suffered from increased noise corresponding to the third gamma interfering in annihilation gamma coincidence pairing. Recent advancements, however, have brought to light the unique property of annihilation gammas having scattering kinematics distinct from random gamma pairs. These properties are born from the singular quantum entanglement state available to the gamma pair following para-positronium decay which prescribes linearly orthogonal polarization. Such coherent polarization is not shared by prompt gamma emissions, offering an opportunity for their discrimination. We present an investigation into this technique, comparing the distribution of relevant scattering kinematics of entangled annihilation gammas and corresponding prompt gammas via a Monte Carlo simulation.
Optimization of the WLS design for positron emission mammography and Total-Body J-PET systems
Authors: Georgadze Anzori , Shivani Shivani , Ardebili Keyvan Tayefi , Moskal Paweł
Published: January 2024

Total-body positron emission tomography (PET) instruments are medical imaging devices that detect and visualize metabolic activity in the entire body. The PET scanner has a ring-shaped detector that surrounds the patient and detects the gamma rays emitted by the tracer as it decays. Usually these detectors are made up of scintillation crystals coupled to photodetectors that convert the light produced by the scintillation crystal into electrical signals. Jagiellonian Positron Emission Mammograph (J-PEM) is the first J-PET prototype module based on a novel idea with a plastic scintillator and wavelength shifter (WLS). At the same time, it is a prototype module for the Total-Body J-PET system. J-PEM can be an effective system for the detection and diagnosis of breast cancer in its early stage by improving sensitivity. This can be achieved using the superior timing properties of plastic scintillators combined with the WLS sheets readout. In this paper we present an application of the Geant4 program for simulating optical photon transport in the J-PEM module. We aim to study light transport within scintillator bars and WLS sheets to optimize gamma-ray hit position resolution. We simulated a pencil beam of 511 keV photons impinging the scintillator bar at different locations. For each condition we calculated the value of the pulse height centroid and the spread of the photon distribution. Some free parameters of the simulation, like reflectivity and the effective attenuation length in the sheet, were determined from a comparison to experimental data. Finally, we estimated the influence of the application of WLS layer in the Total-Body J-PET on the scatter fraction. To optimize the performance of the J-PEM module we compared geometry WLS strips 50 and 83. It was found that spatial resolution was 2.7 mm and 3.5 mm FWHM for 50 and 83 WLS strips, respectively. Despite the better granularity, the 83-strip WLS geometry exhibited poorer resolution due to fewer photons being transmitted to the strip, resulting in large fluctuations of signal.

Actualmente, los cambios acelerados y vertiginosos que se han venido desarrollando, están llevando al agotamiento del modelo de organizaciones que hasta ahora había sido preferido tanto por tecnócratas del sector público como del sector privado. En ese sentido, el objetivo fue analizar la gestión de las funciones administrativas y su incidencia en la calidad de atención al paciente con morbilidad materna. Caso Hospital Dr. Verdi Cevallos Balda del cantón Portoviejo. El enfoque fue cuantitativo, de tipo descriptivo con un diseño no experimental. La técnica utilizada fue la encuesta implementada a través de dos cuestionarios, uno a 111 trabajadores del hospital y otro a 384 usuarios del área materna y neonatal, cada uno contó con 20 preguntas cerradas en escala Likert, ambos instrumentos tuvieron una alta consistencia evidenciado a partir del análisis de fiabilidad obtenido mediante el coeficiente de Alfa de Cronbach. Los resultados revelaron que un segmento importante de los empleados percibió la gestión administrativa como regular, mientras que una parte significativa la consideró eficiente, indicando que la gestión administrativa en el hospital es percibida como adecuada, pero con margen para mejoras. A partir de la ejecución del Rho de Spearman, se concluye que la correlación moderada de 0,142 entre la gestión administrativa y la calidad de atención indica una asociación positiva entre ambas variables. El estudio sugiere la implementación de medidas para optimizar la gestión administrativa y, en consecuencia, mejorar la atención a pacientes con morbilidad materna en el hospital.

O presente estudo tem como objetivo conhecer como o protagonismo da Pessoa Idosa é estabelecido nos Conselhos Municipais de Direito da SEDESE Regional Muriaé-MG. Pesquisa qualitativa, com aplicação de entrevista semiestruturada, utilizando o Google Forms e o Google Meet para levantamento dos dados. As etapas perpassaram a preparação da pesquisa (confecção da entrevista, contato com os/as representantes, assinatura do Termo de Compromisso Livre e Esclarecido); coleta dos dados (atuação como pesquisa-ação durante o processo); análise dos dados coletados e síntese dos resultados obtidos. Foi utilizado o Microsoft Excel, para tratar os dados e confeccionar os gráficos ilustrativos dos resultados encontrados. Percebe-se que nos 19 municípios pesquisados, o Conselho Municipal da Pessoa Idosa ainda é muito frágil no que tange estrutura, financiamento e organização, a participação nas discussões é singela e o tema protagonismo não é discutido como pauta, o que fragiliza na construção da cidadania e principalmente nas possibilidades de acesso e projetos de vida e escolhas.

Los últimos ensayos clínicos de pacientes con ataque cerebrovascular sometidos a trombectomía mecánica v/s mejor tratamiento médico, mostraron resultados favorables incluso en pacientes con un “core” isquémico extenso. En un metaanálisis reciente se mostró que incluso era beneficioso para pacientes con una isquemia extensa y hasta 24 hrs desde la última vez visto bien (Saraj, 2023). En este artículo revisamos distintos ensayos clínicos que evalúan la trombectomía, la fisiopatología de la isquemia y proponemos al astrocito y el sistema glinfático, como foco principal en los efectos del tratamiento. Planteamos la necesidad de cambiar el paradigma del tratamiento actual en pacientes  con “core” isquémico extenso, a su vez la necesidad de considerar estos cambios en el financiamiento y la organización de una red nacional de trombectomía por parte de las autoridades gubernamentales.

The article discusses changes in the appearance and location of the umbilicus (navel) as individuals age, due to factors such as physiological changes, trauma, surgical scars, birth defects, and more. The umbilicus is described as a significant aesthetic element in the abdominal wall, contributing to the overall appearance of the abdomen. Procedures like abdominoplasty are highlighted as surgeries that can significantly impact the aesthetics of the navel, often resulting in unnatural or unsightly appearances. The article emphasizes the importance of achieving a natural and aesthetically pleasing navel during abdominoplasty. It mentions that various techniques have been developed for umbilical reconstruction after abdominoplasty surgeries, with the goal of creating an ideal navel appearance. These techniques are categorized and listed in Table 1, showing the diversity of approaches to umbilical reconstruction. A new technique for umbilical reconstruction is proposed in the article, characterized by its distinctiveness as it does not involve the use of flaps. The steps of this technique involve careful planning, breaking down the circular scar of the navel into triangles, and suturing to create a natural-looking navel. Advantages of this technique include minimal tension in the sutures, utilization of skin management lines in healing, and improved naturalness and size adaptability. The article reports results from applying this new technique to 537 patients over six years, with a focus on clinical and demographic variables. Complications were found to be infrequent, with hypertrophic scars and suture dehiscence being the most common. Patient satisfaction was notably high, with 94% of patients reporting satisfaction with the surgical procedure. In conclusion, the article highlights the success and advantages of the proposed umbilical reconstruction technique without flaps, providing positive aesthetic outcomes with low complication rates and high patient satisfaction. This technique offers an alternative approach to achieving a natural and pleasing navel appearance after abdominoplasty surgeries.
