This study explores the antibacterial effects of Nigella sativa seeds on bacteria obtained from clinical samples. The aim was to assess the antibacterial properties of both aqueous and methanolic extracts of Nigella sativa seeds against E. coli, S. aureus, and P. aeruginosa. The three samples were collected from the Microbiology Laboratory of Modibbo Adamawa Medical Centre and were reconfirmed using culture, microscopy, and some biochemical tests. The seed samples of N. sativa were procured from herbal point Yola, Adamawa State, Nigeria. The phytochemical assay of the extracts revealed the presence of flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, phenols, cardiac glycosides, steroids, saponins, and terpenoids in both extracts. The highest antibacterial activity against S. aureus, E. coli, and P. aeruginosa was demonstrated by the aqueous extract of N. sativa seeds, with inhibition zone diameters of 19.30 ±0.61 mm, 8.10 ±2.17 mm, and 12.00 ±0.29 mm, respectively. However, the methanol extract exhibited slightly greater activity against E. coli and P. aeruginosa, with inhibition zone diameters of 12.10 ±0.38 mm and 13.80 ±0.40 mm, respectively. Both methanol and aqueous extracts showed minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 25 mg/mL against S. aureus and E. coli. Similarly, for P. aeruginosa, the MIC was 25 mg/mL for methanol extract and 50 mg/mL for aqueous extract. The minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) for both extracts against S. aureus and E. coli was determined to be 25 mg/mL. However, for P. aeruginosa, the MBC was 25 mg/mL for the aqueous extract and 50 mg/mL for the methanol extract. The study indicates that N. sativa seed extract possesses antibacterial properties against S. aureus and P. aeruginosa, underscoring its potential as an effective medicinal antibacterial agent.

Anesthesia Management for Scoliosis Correction Surgery at the Level of Thoracic Vertebra 4 - Lumbar Vertebra 3 with Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring
Authors: Faras Asaduddien , Utama Sigit Prasetya
Published: July 2024

Background: Scoliosis correction surgery in cases of adolescent idiophatic scoliosis (AIS) with the help of intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IOM) is an operative technique that aims to increase the safety of surgery in spinal correction by providing a real-time assessment of the underlying nerve structure risk. The management of anesthetic techniques for osteotomy and posterior spinal fusion (PSF) with the help of this IOM requires the expertise of an anesthesiologist to understand influence of anesthetic drugs/ agents on IOM, especially in spinal surgery, the anesthetic technique to be chosen, as well as the selection of drugs and doses that support the operative implementation with this IOM. However, it is important because intraoperative neurophysiocial monitoring can prevent intraoperative neurological injury.Case: A 14-year-old girl with AIS lenke I who will undergo scoliosis correction surgery for thoracic vertebrae 4 to lumbar vertebra 3 with monitoring using IOM.Discussion: Neurological injury is the most feared thing that occurs during spinal surgery.The use of intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) in spinal surgery is widely used by surgeons to increase safety during direct surgery. Another advantage of using IOM is that it is very sensitive and specific, has a fast response time, and can detect damage at an early stage.Conclusion: Management of AIS with posterior spine fusion can improve the patient's quality of life, but this must be accompanied by safety during surgery, one of which is the use of IOM.

Published: July 2024

Crude oil has important role in global economy, including Indonesia with considerable dependence on crude oil energy consumption. The increase in crude oil prices can be triggered by several factors, one of which is geopolitical conflict that occurred due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022. As the result, world crude oil prices rose above US$100 per barrel for the first time since 2014. Therefore, this study uses pulse function intervention analysis approach to evaluate the impact of certain events in predicting data over the next few periods. The pulse function is used because the intervention occurs at the moment t only. The data used starts from June 8, 2020 to September 19, 2022 on weekly basis with the proportion of training and testing data is 90:10. The best intervention model obtained is ARIMA (3,2,0) with b=0, s=1, r=2, and intervention point at T=91. The prediction results for the next 12 periods obtained MAPE value of 2.8982% and MSE of 10.2687. This study is expected to help reduce risks due to uncertainty in world crude oil prices and in line with the goals of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to ensure access to reliable, sustainable, and affordable energy.
AN ADDITIVE SUBDISTRIBUTION HAZARDS MODEL FOR COMPETING RISKS DATA
Authors: Molydah S Molydah S , Danardono Danardono
Published: July 2024

Competing risk failure time data occur frequently in medical a number of methods have been proposed for the analysis of these data. The classic approach is to model all cause-specific hazards and then estimate the cumulative incidence curve based on these cause-specific hazards. Unfortunately, the cause-specific hazard function does not have a direct interpretation in terms of survival probabilities for the particular failure type.  In this paper, we consider a more flexible model for the subdistribution. It is a combination of the additive model and the Cox model and allows one to perform a more detailed study of covariate effects. One advantage of this approach is that our regression modeling allows for non-proportional hazards. This leads to a new simple goodness-of-fit procedure for the proportional subdistribution hazards assumption that is very easy to use. We applied this method to melanoma data and estimated the cumulative death rate for those who died from melanoma after surgical removal of the tumor. It was found that two covariates had a time-varying effect and two other covariates had a constant effect in predicting the cumulative incidence curve in patients who died of melanoma following tumor removal surgery.

Published: July 2024

Well-designed, dialogic, and interdisciplinary learning opportunities in science related disciplines can promote many educational goals. The difficulty lies in providing these opportunities in schools. Can out-of-school focus days fill the void? Here, we performed a mixed methods study to discover how middle school learners perceive focus days that included dialogic, interdisciplinary activities in mathematics, science, and philosophy, all around socio-scientific dilemmas. We also sought to understand the experiences’ impact on learners’ self-perceived dialogic engagement in the school classroom. We focused on (1) learners’ perceptions and recollections of the dialogic climate during the focus days; (2) the perceived contribution of the three disciplines (mathematics, science and philosophy) to the interdisciplinary focus days; and (3) the focus days’ effects on the dialogic climate in the everyday school environment. Our findings suggest that (1) learners generally considered the focus days as enjoyable and different than their everyday school experience; (2) students did not consider each discipline equally relevant to the focus days’ main topics; and (3) the effects of the focus days were localized, that is, no impact was found on the dialogic climate at school. We discuss implications for promoting interdisciplinary, dialogic science related learning in secondary schools.

Published: July 2024

In contrast to microarray methods, sequence-based technologies directly determine the nucleic acid sequence. A number of modern sequencing technologies are referred to collectively as "next-generation sequencing" (NGS), often known as "high-throughput sequencing." Compared to conventional Sanger sequencing, NGS gives orders of magnitude more data at a much lower ongoing cost. These new technologies allow for much faster and more affordable sequencing of DNA and RNA, revolutionizing the study of genomics and molecular biology. Technical improvements in NGS sequencing methods have rapidly increased sequencing volume to several billion nucleotides within a short period and at a reasonable cost. Currently, NGS is developing into a molecular microscope that is permeating almost all areas of biological research. The last ten years have seen the development of NGS platforms and methodologies, and the quality of the sequences has increased to the point where NGS is now utilized in human clinical diagnosis. Due to significant cost reductions and greater community acceptance of NGS, the utilization of NGS techniques in studying clinical trials has significantly increased. NGS is a useful tool for detecting mutations in people with cancer and genetic abnormalities. To ascertain whether NGS can cost-effectively improve patient outcomes, more thorough cost-effectiveness studies of NGS applied to patient care management are required.
Behavior of ultra-high-performance concrete deep beams reinforced by basalt fibers
Authors: Hussain Laith N. , Hamood Mohammed J. , Al-Shaarbaf Ehsan A.
Published: July 2024

Deep beams are crucial for construction projects due to their load-carrying capacity, shear resistance, and architectural adaptability. Ultra-high strength concrete and ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) are used in their production. Basalt fiber is used as an alternative due to its corrosion resistance, tensile strength, and thermal stability. This study investigates the behavior of UHPC deep beams reinforced with basalt fibers. Three sets of 11 specimens were constructed without transverse reinforcement and reinforced with either fibers or steel fibers. The study also analyzes the impact of parameters like shear strength capacity, crack development, and load-deflection behavior on UHPC deep beams. The study discovered that the inclusion of basalt fibers in UHPC deep beam can effectively postpone the onset of diagonal cracks. Incorporating basalt fiber at concentrations of 0.5, 0.75, and 1.0% led to respective increases of 48.17, 70.07, and 86.66% in the diagonal fracture force, as compared to the inclusion of steel fibers which resulted in increases of 18.24, 56.93, and 98.54% in diagonal fracture loads. The ideal ratio for enhancing the maximum shear capacity was found to be 0.75% of basalt. This specific percent resulted in the highest measured force out of the three percentages that were examined. The addition of basalt fibers at concentrations of 0.5, 0.75, and 1.0% resulted in respective improvements of 11.62, 30.08, and 28.69% in the ultimate shear capacities. During that period, steel fibers significantly enhanced the ultimate shear capacity, resulting in an increase of 19.83, 34.49, and 55.24% compared to specimens without fiber reinforcement. Regarding the second parameter of this investigation, a drop in the shear span ratio is linked to an augmentation in shear capacity and a reduction in mid-span deflection to varying extents for both the utilization of basalt and steel fibers.

Different alternative hosts can reduce or even avoid pre-imaginal conditioning of parasitoids in mass production programs. Spodoptera cosmioides (Walker) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) may be an alternative host for mass rearing the parasitoid Palmistichus elaeisis Delvare & LaSalle (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae). The objective of this study was to evaluate the parasitism, emergence, egg-to-adult period, progeny size, sex ratio, and consumption of host tissue per individual of P. elaeisis produced using S. cosmioides pupae in the laboratory. Newly formed S. cosmioides pupae were weighed, individualized in glass tubes and each one was exposed to six newly emerged P. elaeisis females during 48 h. These pupae were transferred to plastic pots until the emergence of P. elaeisis adults. Palmistichus elaeisis parasitized and emerged from 100.0 % and 87.5 % of the S. cosmioides pupae, respectively. The egg-to-adult period of P. elaeisis was 24.28 ± 0.18 days, with 109 ± 2 individuals emerging per host pupae. Mass consumption of the host was 2.56 ± 0.01 mg per parasitoid emerged. This is the first report of P. elaeisis parasitizing and developing in S. cosmioides pupae. The ease of rearing S. cosmioides with an artificial diet, and the high parasitism, emergence, and progeny size of P. elaeisis support the suitability of this alternative host to mass-rearing this parasitoid.

Published: July 2024

Spectral reconstruction, critical for understanding sample composition, is extensively applied in fields like remote sensing, geology, and medical imaging. However, existing spectral reconstruction methods require bulky equipment or complex electronic reconstruction algorithms, which limit the system’s performance and applications. This paper presents a novel flexible all-optical opto-intelligence spectrometer, termed OIS, using a diffractive neural network for high-precision spectral reconstruction, featuring low energy consumption and light-speed processing. Simulation experiments indicate that the OIS is able to achieve high-precision spectral reconstruction under spatially coherent and incoherent light sources without relying on any complex electronic algorithms, and integration with a simplified electrical calibration module can further improve the performance of OIS. To demonstrate the robustness of OIS, spectral reconstruction was also successfully conducted on real-world datasets. Our work provides a valuable reference for using diffractive neural networks in spectral interaction and perception, contributing to ongoing developments in photonic computing and machine learning.
An Early Anticipation of Market Socialism? Liberalism, Heresy, and Knowledge in John Stuart Mill's Political Economy of Socialism
Authors: Manioudis Manolis , Milonakis Dimitris
Published: July 2024

John Stuart Mill is considered one of the most important representatives of the classical school of political economy. His intellectual development exhibited a gradual transition toward more socialistic views. This transition was partly the result of his interaction with French utopian socialists, which led Mill to theoretically construct an economic system lying between what is now called market capitalism and revolutionary socialism. For Mill, socialism would be a new organic period after the transitory and critical period of the “stationary state.” This paper delineates the core tenets of Mill's stationary state and presents it as an early anticipation of what from the 1920s on is called “market socialism.” Mill's optimistic vision of the stationary state was based on the spread of associations, the socialization of knowledge among all people, competition, and the importance of individuality. These elements are connected with Mill's idiosyncratic, liberal and utilitarianist vision of (market) socialism which prepares the ground for his socialist utopia based on the ideal “from each according to his capacities; to each according to his needs.”
Behaviorism, Positivism and Vygotskian Critique
Authors: Tasos Travasaros
Published: July 2024

Positivism, especially Mach's, was highly influential in the development of psychology as a science and often criticized by Marxist theorists, particularly Vygotsky in many of his writings. Behaviorism and reflexology, its Russian analog, fail to acknowledge the social character of man due to their reductionism, limiting themselves to studying only the simplest elements of human behavior. At the same time, their obsession with purifying science from supposed “metaphysical” assumptions leads to the elimination of consciousness and higher psychological functions from the field of research. The Vygotskian critique highlights that the positivist spirit of behaviorism and reflexology leads to methodological dualism.
Topographic Organization of Glutamatergic and GABAergic Parvalbumin-Positive Neurons in the Lateral Habenula
Authors: Nguyen Thi Van Trang , Nakamura Tomoya , Ichijo Hiroyuki
Published: July 2024

Parvalbumin-expressing (PV) neurons, classified by their expression of the calcium-binding protein parvalbumin, play crucial roles in the function and plasticity of the lateral habenular nucleus (LHb). This study aimed to deepen our understanding of the LHb by collecting information about the heterogeneity of LHb PV neurons in mice. To achieve this, we investigated the proportions of the transmitter machinery in LHb PV neurons, including GABAergic, glutamatergic, serotonergic, cholinergic, and dopaminergic neurotransmitter markers, using transcriptome analysis, mRNA in situ hybridization chain reaction, and immunohistochemistry. LHb PV neurons comprise three subsets: glutamatergic, GABAergic, and double-positive for glutamatergic and GABAergic machinery. By comparing the percentages of the subsets, we found that the LHb was topographically organized anteroposteriorly; the GABAergic and glutamatergic PV neurons were preferentially distributed in the anterior and posterior LHb, respectively, uncovering the anteroposterior topography of the LHb. In addition, we confirmed the mediolateral topography of lateral GABAergic PV neurons. These findings suggest that PV neurons play distinct roles in different parts of the LHb along the anteroposterior and mediolateral axes, facilitating the topographic function of the LHb. It would be interesting to determine whether their topography is differentially involved in various cognitive and motivational processes associated with the LHb, particularly the involvement of posterior glutamatergic PV neurons.

Édgar Garavito y Michel Foucault: un homenaje desde el afuera
Authors: Daza Dadán Leandro
Published: July 2024

En su trabajo entre 1985 y 1999, el filósofo colombiano Édgar Garavito busca entrar en relación con Michel Foucault, aproximarse a él, rendirle un homenaje. Su utilización de los filósofos como herramientas de trabajo, instrumentos y armas le permite establecer un concepto propio: transcursividad, que implica la transformación. El artículo se divide en ejes de transformación para analizar la presencia de herramientas foucaultianas en la construcción garaviteana. El francés se revela como punto de apoyo y, en paralelo, de distanciamiento. El vínculo Garavito-Foucault deviene así una manera de relacionarse desde el afuera. Situado en el afuera geográfico y lingüístico del francés, Garavito escucha, lee y atraviesa su obra introduciendo una novedad en la historia del pensamiento colombiano, además de homenajearlo.

Authors: Sánchez Caro Carmen María
Published: July 2024

Utilizando un enfoque multidisciplinario en ciencias de la educación, este artículo pretende explorar la noción de 'tiempo muerto' en términos de práctica profesional propia de los profesionales de las comunidades indígenas de las CPI en Bogotá. A través de video-observaciones, entrevistas y charlas, intentamos captar las experiencias de ‘tiempo muerto’ de los niños en dos Casas de pensamiento indígena (CPI), con la mirada de padres, profesionales y líderes comunitarios (Taitas). Nuestros análisis nos conducen al continuum del tiempo de inactividad/actividad de los niños pequeños, a través del seguimiento pedagógico realizado por los profesionales indígenas, en relación con los momentos transcurridos en la discontinuidad del tiempo de inactividad o ‘tiempos muertos’.

Published: July 2024

To meet the functional and emotional needs of users for outdoor leisure chairs, the three-level theory of harmonious design was applied. A product design process was put together based on the Kano model and analytic hierarchy process (AHP). The Kano model obtained demand attributes and influence coefficients, while the AHP obtained total weights. The target products were designed and evaluated based on the three-level theory of harmonious design to improve the user experience and satisfaction of outdoor leisure chairs. The attribute categories of harmonious demand were obtained based on the Kano model, and the harmonious demands were ranked by importance. The design analysis and design practice were conducted with the goal of harmonious design. The AHP was used to analyze the comprehensive weights of the index factors, evaluate the user satisfaction of the three design schemes, and conduct consistency test and feasibility verification of the design schemes. The optimal design scheme was selected based on the total weight mean of three design schemes. The design and analysis method based on the Kano-AHP model can focus on user demand. It can objectively and efficiently analyze design pain spots, and effectively guide the harmonious design practice, which improves user satisfaction and market transformation efficiency of creative products.

Published: July 2024

La gestión de la innovación se constituye como un pilar primordial en la ejecución del Programa Beca 18 del Programa Nacional de Becas y Crédito Educativo (PRONABEC). Este programa educativo-social, concebido para proporcionar oportunidades educativas de alta calidad a jóvenes de recursos limitados, se enfrenta a un entorno educativo en constante transformación y desafíos emergentes. En este contexto, gestionar la innovación se convierte en un catalizador esencial para mantener la pertinencia y eficacia de Beca 18, no solo en términos de tecnología, sino en cambios en la estructura, la reinvención de procesos, políticas y estrategias. Por esas razones el presente estudio tuvo como objetivo principal determinar la relación de la variable Gestión de la innovación y la variable Implementación del Programa Beca 18. La muestra estuvo constituida por 57 becarios del programa. Los hallazgos comprueban la incidencia directa y significativa de la gestión de la innovación a través de la plataforma de Apoyo y Orientación (PAO) y sus dimensiones (orientación vocacional, oferta y preparación educativa) en la implementación del Programa Beca 18 del PRONABEC, analizado por aptitudes intelectuales y preferencias profesionales, información sobre instituciones educativas y material de preparación educativa para el periodo 2023. Estos descubrimientos permitirían a futuro diseñar el modelo de gestión de innovación propuesto, sobre la base de una orientación vocacional efectiva, como la oferta y la preparación educativa vigente.

Research on the modern distribution of 137Cs in soils of different forest site types in black alder (Alnus glutinosa (L.) Gaerth.) stands was conducted. In forest litter, there is not a high percentage of its total activity in soil: in moist fairly fertile site type (C3) – 13.4 %, damp fairly fertile site type (C4) – 16.3 %, and wet fairly fertile site type (C5) – 3.8 %. The mineral part of the soil in moist and damp fairly fertile site type is characterized by decreased density of radioactive contamination of soil layers with depth. In wet fairly fertile site type, this indicator increases to a depth of 6 - 8 cm and decreases with further deepening. A 10-cm layer of moist fairly fertile site type (C3) contains 61.8 % of the total radionuclide activity in soil, damp fairly fertile site type (C4) – 68.1%, and wet fairly fertile site type (C5) – 70.1 %, correspondingly; a 20-cm layer has 75.4, 78.3, 91.9 % and a 30-cm layer – 80.9, 82.2, 96.0 % of the total radionuclide activity.
