Assessing the Effects of Tannery Pollutants in Tamilnadu: Special Reference to Chennai City
Authors: John Sundar S
Published: March 2024

A study was carried out to assess the chromium content of groundwater in the vicinity of tanneries in a district of Chennai, southern India. The common effluent treatment plant (CETP) treats the sewage from these tanneries before releasing it into open drains that connect to the neighbouring Adyar River. Tanneries are one of the industries that significantly contribute to pollution in the Chennai district. Chennai, the study region famous for having an airport in the district, is a rapidly urbanising area. There are many tanneries in the vicinity, and their effluents frequently impact the nearby land and water since they are not treated. The chemicals that lead to the area’s degradation have been identified by chemical analysis of the collected water samples.

Published: March 2024

Jeder Mensch konstruiert sich die Wirklichkeit entsprechend seiner individuellen Dispositionen selbst. Die Diskussion um den Konstruktivismus als Erkenntnistheorie wird seit langem geführt, zunehmend auch in der Pädagogik und Didaktik. Besonders für die Arbeit in Lernwerkstätten scheinen diese Argumentationen produktiv zu sein, wie die Ausführungen von Kersten Reich nahelegen. Um das Phänomen der Konstruktion von Lebenswirklichkeit zu verdeutlichen, werden die Darlegungen und Begründungen von Autor:innen zudem aus biologischer, kybernetischer, psychologischer oder philosophischer Sicht vorgestellt, um eine Einordnung zu ermöglichen und die begriffliche Schärfung zu verdeutlichen. Bezogen auf (Hochschul)Lernwerkstätten könnten davon ausgehend Prämissen konkret für das Studium in Lernwerkstätten abgeleitet und differenzierter beschrieben werden. (DIPF/Orig.)
The role of hydrogen in nonradiative recombination in CsPbI3: a first-principles investigation
Authors: Zhang Jiajia , Li Peipei , Zhang Hui , Han Chen , Wu Ju
Published: March 2024

Defect-induced nonradiative recombination is the main factor hindering efficiency improvement in CsPbI3 perovskite solar cells. It has been recently claimed that the unintentionally incorporated H impurity can potentially cause nonradiative losses due to the deep levels. Using first-principles approaches, we show that, as a matter of fact, the H impurity has a negligible effect on carrier recombination in CsPbI3 due to its small nonradiative capture coefficient and low density. This insight rationalizes why the addition of hydriodic acid does not reduce carrier lifetime and could prevent acidic additives being discarded as potential candidates for assisting film growth.

Blood cold chain is a mandatory requirement of blood donation procedures to protect blood from bacterial contamination and to extend the shelf life of blood. Blood bank as a storage medium for blood bags requires a temperature between 2℃-6℃ on average. However, in general, blood banks only have 1 cold temperature distribution point, which is feared that the spread of cold temperatures in the compartment will be different at each point. For this reason, the researcher intended to design a blood bank temperature distribution monitoring device consisting of 7 measurement points. In this case, temperature sensor readings at each point are displayed wirelessly to smartphone devices using the Blynk platform and are also on a 3.5-inch TFT screen. The measurement data were then stored on the SD card memory so that the level of temperature fluctuations in the blood bank compartment can be analyzed during use. The module was also equipped with an alarm warning on the module and the Blynk application if the temperature is out of the normal temperature range (2℃-6℃). Before being used for measuring temperature distribution, the device made was compared with the standard Fluke DPM4 tester, in which the highest error obtained was 2.08% at T1, 1.58% at T2, -2.73% at T3, 1,61% at T4, -1.07% at T5, -0.06% at T6, and -2.32% at T7. After being compared with standard equipment, the device was used to measure the temperature spread in the Kirsch brand blood bank and the average temperature obtained was 3.56℃ at T1, 3.58℃ at T2, 3.73℃ at T3, 3.57℃ at T4, 3.67℃ at T5, 3.63℃ at T6, and 3.72℃ at T7. Based on the analysis results, the blood bank monitoring device can be used to measure the temperature spread in the blood bank compartment at 7 measurement points. Furthermore, temperature readings can be monitored wirelessly and remotely. It is hoped that this research can further help laboratory personnel at the Blood Transfusion Unit to monitor and evaluate the level of temperature spread in the blood bank compartment and prevent early damage to blood components.

Published: March 2024

Land Surface Temperature (LST) can be used to detect the occurrence of climate change. The change in LST can affect disease patterns such as Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF). The incidence of DHF in Madura from 2010-2019 showed instability. The highest DHF incidence rate in Madura occurred in 2015. This study aims to analyze the spatial and temporal effect of LST on the incidence of DHF in Madura. The analysis was carried out spatially and temporally, using multivariate regression (spatial) and Autoregression (temporal) methods with a cubic spline for LST. This study used secondary data from two institution. LST data was obtained from the MODIS NASA website, while DHF data was obtained from the East Java Provincial Health Office. LST in most sub-region, increased in 2003 and 2015, then which is in line with the incidence of dengue fever in Madura, which also increased around 2015-2016. The R2 value from the cubic spline test shows that the model used is quite good and has the same performance in all regions of Madura. The Z-value in all regions is negative, which indicates a cold area. The highest Z-value in region 1 is related to Bangkalan Regency which has more incidences of DHF in the highest category. While the lowest Z-value is found in region 3 related to Pamekasan Regency which has never been in the high category. The incidence of DHF based on LST in Madura illustrates that Bangkalan and Sumenep regencies have greater potential than Sampang and Pamekasan regencies.

The use of batteries as the main power source in portable equipment systems has several drawbacks, including the percentage of battery power that must be monitored so that the system is always active. Analysis of battery power efficiency is needed to determine the resistance of portable systems. This study makes a portable system for monitoring the condition of patients with infectious diseases in a special isolation room that can measure heart rate, body temperature, and oxygen saturation. The design of this device uses a 2200mAH battery as a power source on the IC TTGO ESP32 to manage data and display measurement results, the MAX30102 sensor to measure oxygen saturation and heart rate, and the MCP9808 sensor to measure body temperature. The design of this device has been tested on respondents aged 25-40 years by placing the sensor on the fingertip then the measurement results are compared with a standard device that has been calibrated. The measurement results show that the device is feasible to use because the measurement error value is ±5%. Testing the efficiency of battery power in normal mode and save mode. In normal mode, the current used in the device is 154.9 mA, while the save mode by not activating the LCD TTGO ESP32 requires a current of 126.7 mA. The results of the analysis show that using the battery in normal mode can activate the device for up to ±14 hours and in save mode for ±17 hours. This designed method is useful for measuring power efficiency in different device modes and the user knows the battery charging time at regular intervals.

A vital sign examination is one of the important indications used to establish the diagnosis of a disease and is useful for determining the medical treatment plan needed for the patient. An electrocardiograph (ECG) is a parameter in medical equipment used in the process of measuring the electrical activity of the heart muscle by measuring biopotential differences from the body surface. In 2016, cardiovascular disease was the number-one cause of death in the world. This happens because the detection of cardiovascular disease is often late, so a monitoring tool is needed that can monitor the patient's condition quickly and efficiently. The purpose of this research is to create a tool that is used to facilitate the monitoring of patient conditions. The implication of this research is that in the many cases where the signal produced is not perfect and there is still a lot of noise, this can be overcome by using the STM32F7 microcontroller, which has a 16-bit resolution, so that the resulting signal will be better, smoother, and have less noise. produced is very small. The method used in this study was to use a phantom ECG as a comparison and to use five respondents whose BPM values were to be compared with another comparison using a pulse oximeter. The design of this tool uses an ECG analog circuit that is placed on the patient's lead II leads to detect the patient's electrocardiograph signal. Data processing will be done using the STM32F7 microcontroller, and the results of the data processing will be sent to the PC using Visual Basic. The results showed that the BPM error value using a phantom ECG was 2.5%. While the smallest error value is 0,83%. In BPM measurements using 5 respondents, the largest error value was 0.9% and the smallest error value was 0%. The results of these tests indicate that this module can be used to monitor the value of each parameter in accordance with the plan.

Published: March 2024

This study aims to develop a tool that can assist nurses in examining patients by displaying sounds and signals on a TFT LCD screen. This tool uses the MAX 9814 sound sensor, which converts sound into an electrical signal. This sensor will generate a voltage when the diaphragm inside it moves back and forth. To design this tool, researchers used a series of high pass filters and low pass filters with a cut-off frequency of 333 Hz - 714 kHz. During testing of this tool using the MAX 9814 sensor mounted on a stethoscope, the signal appears stable on the TFT LCD screen and sound can be played properly. However, if the placement of the stethoscope is not correct during the examination, this can also affect the signal and sound produced. This tool should not produce a clear and loud sound when checking, because if this happens, the inspection cannot be carried out optimally. This research also produces a signal shape that is almost similar to the signal on the phantom. It is important to note that the MAX 9814 can work optimally if it is not exposed to environmental noise. Therefore, if this equipment is used in a noisy environment, the signal and sound produced may be disturbed by environmental noise. This research was conducted with the aim of making it easier for doctors and nurses to carry out portable examinations, as well as to monitor signals and sounds easily.

Authors: Syaifudin Syaifudin , Rahmawati Triana
Published: March 2024

An infusion pump is a tool used to inject a certain amount of fluid into the patient's body through the patient's veins continuously over a certain period of time. A syringe pump is a tool that functions to push the syringe rod so that it can produce a flow ranging from microliters to milliliters per minute periodically with high accuracy. Very often there are problems with blockages or occlusion when using infusion pumps and syringe pumps. The occlusion limit set is ≤20 PSI according to ECRI. The presence of occlusion in the infusion pump and syringe pump can be identified when there is an alarm buzzer which will sound when a blockage is detected. A 1 Channel Portable Infusion Device Analyzer has been designed using the SKU 237545 Sensor, namely by using a 1 channel flowrate and occlusion sensor and making it portable to be efficient. For this reason, it is necessary to analyze the performance of the tools that have been created. How accurate is it? From the results of performance testing, Oclusion was corrected at 0.242 psi and 0.3 Psi. For flow rate, the largest correction was 2.4 ml/hour and the uncertainty was 6,046 ml/hour. This shows that the accuracy of the design is still quite high and the resulting tool is still not stable, this can be seen from the uncertainty value. The uncertainty that occurs is likely due to the sensitivity of the droplet sensor related to the detection time of the droplet

Por intermédio do pensamento de Henri Lefebvre revisitado por meio de revisão bibliográfica em diálogo com alguns de seus interlocutores, apresentamos uma abordagem que compreende o reconhecimento dos diferentes modos de se produzir o espaço como um dos aspectos do direito à cidade. A compreensão do direito à cidade como o direito à diferença é um contraponto à sociabilidade capitalista e suas tendências de homogeneização do espaço e dos modos de existência. Ressaltamos que esse direito não é pensado aqui como um direito transcendente ou, simplesmente, um direito positivo, sendo o direito à cidade localizado nas práticas socioespaciais dos sujeitos.

Palliative care is start from diagnosis of serious illness until death and bereavement care. But, the term “Palliative Care” often mistakenly regarded identical to “End of Life Care” without any treatments.  It’s caused dilemma among nurses to give maximum care of palliative care needs or let the patients get minimum of care. Methods: The aim of this article is to evaluate the dilemma palliative care needs in Intensive Care Unit. This is a case study report used a qualitative approach of 3 palliative patients in ICU used descriptive case study as well as in depth-interviews with patient’s family, nurses and internist. Results and Discussion: We present a case report of 3 patient who had been admitted to hospital with cancer and need palliative care in ICU. Patients subsequently suffered a pulmonary metastase with multiple organ failure. However the goal of end of life care for dying patients is to prevent or relieve suffering as much as possible while respecting the patient’s desires. But it is still a dilemma in Indonesia, especially palliative patients in ICU. According to medical decision, patients in ICU should receive maximum treatment, but if patient is facing multiple organ failure nurse should consider to providing palliative care. Conclusions: Palliative care approaches and provision within intensive care units can significantly impact care outcomes and increase the quality-of life people with end-of life period. Palliative care not to reduce the dose of drugs and patient care.
Fixation-related potentials during mobile map assisted navigation in the real world: The effect of landmark visualization style
Authors: Hilton Christopher , Kapaj Armand , Fabrikant Sara Irina
Published: March 2024

An often-proposed enhancement for mobile maps to aid assisted navigation is the presentation of landmark information, yet understanding of the manner in which they should be displayed is limited. In this study, we investigated whether the visualization of landmarks as 3D map symbols with either an abstract or realistic style influenced the subsequent processing of those landmarks during route navigation. We utilized a real-world mobile electroencephalography approach to this question by combining several tools developed to overcome the challenges typically encountered in real-world neuroscience research. We coregistered eye-movement and EEG recordings from 45 participants as they navigated through a real-world environment using a mobile map. Analyses of fixation event-related potentials revealed that the amplitude of the parietal P200 component was enhanced when participants fixated landmarks in the real world that were visualized on the mobile map in a realistic style, and that frontal P200 latencies were prolonged for landmarks depicted in either a realistic or abstract style compared with features of the environment that were not presented on the map, but only for the male participants. In contrast, we did not observe any significant effects of landmark visualization style on visual P1-N1 peaks or the parietal late positive component. Overall, the findings indicate that the cognitive matching process between landmarks seen in the environment and those previously seen on a map is facilitated by more realistic map display, while low-level perceptual processing of landmarks and recall of associated information are unaffected by map visualization style.
Possible bi-stable structures of pyrenebutanoic acid-linked protein molecules adsorbed on graphene: theoretical study
Authors: Oishi Yasuhiro , Kitatani Motoharu , Kusakabe Koichi
Published: March 2024

We theoretically analyze possible multiple conformations of protein molecules immobilized by 1-pyrenebutanoic acid succinimidyl ester (PASE) linkers on graphene. The activation barrier between two bi-stable conformations exhibited by PASE is confirmed to be based on the steric hindrance effect between a hydrogen on the pyrene group and a hydrogen on the alkyl group of this molecule. Even after the protein is supplemented, this steric hindrance effect remains if the local structure of the linker consisting of an alkyl group and a pyrene group is maintained. Therefore, it is likely that the kinetic behavior of a protein immobilized with a single PASE linker exhibits an activation barrier-type energy surface between the bi-stable conformations on graphene. We discuss the expected protein sensors when this type of energy surface appears and provide a guideline for improving the sensitivity, especially as an oscillator-type biosensor.

The paper examines the essence and features of the application of a risk-oriented approach in the activities of detectives of the Bureau of Economic Security, the importance of introducing a risk-oriented approach in order to identify potential risks of committing criminal offenses in the spheres of budgetary, tax, customs, monetary and investment activities.
General methods of conducting inspections of the Bureau of Economic Security and their features are considered. In particular, such methods are characterized as: documentary scheduled and unscheduled inspections; actual on-site and off-site inspections; monitoring checks of compliance with legal requirements. Control purchases of goods, works or services; examinations and interviews of company officials and employees; inventories of goods and material values, calculations and obligations of the enterprise.
It has been investigated that the implementation of a risk-oriented approach consists in the analysis and comparison of information contained in the databases of the Bureau of Economic Security (BEB) with data obtained from automated information and reference systems, registers, data banks of state authorities, local self-government bodies , to which access is provided in accordance with the provisions of Article 7 of the Law of Ukraine "On the Bureau of Economic Security of Ukraine", as well as structured and unstructured data from other sources.
It is argued that based on the results of identifying, assessing and defining risks, risk management measures are taken, which consist in timely response to them by minimizing or eliminating risk factors that have led or may lead to their occurrence, as well as the consequences of the manifestation of such risks.
It was determined that the tools and methodology of the risk-oriented approach for the activities of the Bureau of Economic Security can become useful only under the conditions of quality implementation, taking into account foreign experience and careful implementation of each of the described stages.

Strange figures, obscure creatures and exotic existences appear in numerous films of silent cinema. In the cinema, we are immersed in an oriental world, with magnificent interiors and exotic landscapes sweeping
across the screen. The stories deal with alienation effects and attempts to break out of predetermined paths. At the same time, however, the foreign is always brought back into the order of familiar structures.
In Die Macht der dunklen Kammern. Die Faszination des Fremden im frühen dänischen Kino, the film and cultural-historical background to this field of tension between ageing and normalisation is analysed on the
basis of Danish silent film cinema, which experienced its golden years at the beginning of the 20th century.

Published: March 2024

 Background:
India has the largest population with diabetes. Despite the rising prevalence of Diabetes, data on the dietary profile of the Indian population in relation to the recommendations are scarce. As India has diversity even in diet patterns changing from region to region, the diet plannings are standardised without taking into consideration of the regional variation. This study is intended to know the dietary pattern of diabetic patients of this region and the gaps in their dietary patterns.

 Objectives:

• To study the diet patterns among the diabetic patients in Hubballi taluk.
• To understand the gaps in food habits among the diabetic patients in Hubballi taluk.
• To understand the diabetic diet and compare it with the recommended dietary plan for diabetic patients recommended by other standards.

 Methodology:
A cross sectional study was conducted in Adult Diabetic Population of field practice area of KIMS, Hubballi with a semi- structured questionnaire to assess the gap in food habits as per ICMR guidelines and data is analyzed by SPSS version 25.

 Results:
In our study 35.1% are overweight and 37.7% are obese their mean calorie intake per day is 1500 Kcal/day in that around 50% of carbohydrate is consumed, 25% of protein and 25%of fats is consumed as compared to 40% of carbohydrates, 35% of proteins and 25% of fats recommended for diabetic patients.

 Conclusion:
From this study, it is evident that majority of the diabetic population have adequate knowledge about diabetic diet and practices that are to be followed. It is also evident that carbohydrate consumption is more and protein is less in our study participants and there is a need of formulating a diet plan according to the regional diet pattern and personal BMI.
Comparing Observed with Simulated Solar-disk-center Scattering Polarization in the Sr i 4607 Å Line

Solar magnetic fields alter scattering polarization in spectral lines like Sr i at 4607 Å via the Hanle effect, making it a potential diagnostic for small-scale, mixed-polarity photospheric magnetic fields. Recently, observational evidence for scattering polarization in the Sr i 4607 Å line at the solar disk center was found. Here, we investigate the reliability of the reconstruction method that made possible this detection. To this end, we apply it to linear polarization profiles of the Sr i 4607 Å line radiation emerging at the disk center obtained from a detailed 3D radiative transfer calculation in a magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) simulation snapshot with a small-scale dynamo contribution. The reconstruction method systematically reduces the scattering amplitudes by up to a factor of 2, depending on the noise level. We demonstrate that the decrease can be attributed to two systematic errors: first, the physical constraint that underlies our assumptions regarding the dependence of scattering polarization on the quadrupolar moment of the radiation field; and second, the limitations of our method in accurately determining the sign of the radiation field tensor from the observed intensity image. However, by consistently applying the reconstruction process and after taking into account image-degradation effects due to the temporally variable image quality, such as imposed by seeing, the observed and synthesized polarization signals show remarkable agreement. We thus conclude that the observed scattering polarization at the solar disk center is consistent with that emerging from a MHD model of the solar photosphere with an average magnetic field of 170 G at the visible surface.

Blue supergiants are the brightest stars in their host galaxies, and yet their evolutionary status has been a long-standing problem in stellar astrophysics. In this pioneering work, we present a large sample of 59 early B-type supergiants in the Large Magellanic Cloud with newly derived stellar parameters and identify the signatures of stars born from binary mergers among them. We simulate novel 1D merger models of binaries consisting of post main-sequence giants with helium-rich cores (primaries) and main-sequence companions (secondaries), and consider the effects of interaction of the secondary with the core of the primary along with the mixing induced by the merger in the envelope. Thereafter, the evolution of the newborn 17–43

stars is followed until core-carbon depletion, close to their final pre-explosion stage. Unlike stars born alone with comparable masses, stars born from mergers of evolved binaries are blue throughout their core helium-burning phase and replicate the surface gravities and Hertzsprung–Russell diagram positions of most of our sample, thus indicating that B-type supergiants structurally resemble stars born from such mergers. Moreover, the large nitrogen-to-carbon and nitrogen-to-oxygen number ratios, coupled with helium enhancements exhibited by at least half our data sample, is uniquely reproduced by our merger models. Collectively, these findings provide compelling evidence toward the important role of binary mergers in producing the currently observed population of blue supergiants in our Universe.

Within the classical convection–diffusion approximation, we show that the angular distribution of cosmic rays (CRs) in a highly turbulent flow may exhibit significant small-scale anisotropies. The CR intensity angular power spectrum C

Why cave planthoppers study matters: are Cixiidae a subtroglophile lineage? (Hemiptera, Fulgoromorpha)
Authors: Le Cesne Maxime , Hoch Hannelore , Zhang Yalin , Bourgoin Thierry
Published: March 2024

Planthoppers are an interesting and contrasting model among insects for studying the subterranean environments. Their morphological and ethological adaptations to the underground conditions (complete darkness, lower temperatures, high hygrometry, stability of environmental constants, rarefied food sources, etc.), and their worldwide distribution in both temperate and tropical areas make them an interesting model among invertebrates. In this review, we highlight why cave planthoppers study matters, with particular emphasis on the Cixiidae. The two hypotheses proposed, the ‘climatic relict hypothesis’ and the ‘adaptive shift’, are not sufficient enough to clearly understand and explain the drivers to cavernicoly. Phylogenetic analyses approaches might help to better document and increase our knowledge on such peculiar environments. The singularity of the distribution pattern of the adaptation to cavernicoly in planthoppers raises also interesting questions to investigate and suggest contrasting scenarios to explore further, particularly should the Cixiidae be defined as a subtroglophile lineage?
Un objet pédagogique territorialisé pour enseigner les transitions et l’agroécologie
Authors: Peltier Christian
Published: March 2024

Les transitions et l’agroécologie, et leur enseignement, interrogent les cultures professionnelles des enseignants tout autant que des professionnels de l’agriculture. Dans l’enseignement agricole français, le plan stratégique « enseigner à produire autrement » et la mise en œuvre de l’évaluation capacitaire dans des référentiels de diplôme, constituent une opportunité pour repenser les processus d’apprentissage et les évaluations comme problématisation et conceptualisation du sens des activités enseignantes. Dans cet article, nous prenons appui sur un dispositif où des situations territoriales polarisées par un objet significatif et problématique en termes de durabilité (le « poulet d’élevage », la « luzerne en collectif », etc.) sont médiatisées en situations d’enseignement-apprentissage que nous qualifions de « jeux authentiques ». Nous proposons ainsi trois outils pour une évaluation-régulation des pratiques des enseignants (activités de conception, implémentation, réassurance) et des apprentissages des apprenants dans la perspective d’un agir plus soutenable.
