Authors: Lasnoto Lasnoto  , Burhanuddin Burhanuddin  , Bowo Lestono
Published: October 2023

On February 2, 2019, PT Bank BRI (Persero) Tbk introduced Super App Brimo' by BRI to replace the previous iteration of their mobile banking, BRI Online (Brimo' 1.0). The Brimo by BRI target audience was organised by Bank BRI management in 2022, and it was disseminated to 12 Regional Offices in Indonesia. Bank BRI Region VI/Jawa 1 ran many acquisition programmes, including the Strategic Partnership Programme, to meet the aim of Brimo's users. Out of the 128 partners who entered the strategic partnership programme in 2022, 106 partners are classified as having low acquisition because they have an ability to recruit fewer than 50 users, and just 3 partners have the ability to acquire more than 500 users. In order to boost the partner's willingness to distribute Brimo' by BRI and, ultimately, increase the penetration of Brimo' by BRI, this study looks at potential options. The results show that there are some issues that partners face when distributing Brimo' by BRI, including technical difficulties, a lack of product knowledge, staffing issues, gimmicks that don't suit partners' preferences, poorly optimised promotions, the need for reward and recognition programmes, and partners' lack of confidence in their ability to distribute Brimo' by BRI. The study comes to the conclusion that offline training, gimmicky customization, reward and recognition programmes, and quicker referral fee payment are necessary to boost partner willingness to acquire Brimo's users. To determine how these guidelines will affect people, more research will be required.

A essencialidade do saneamento à uma qualidade de vida para o ser humano e para manutenção de um meio sustentável e salobre é indubitável. O esgotamento sanitário, entre os serviços de saneamento, ainda apresenta déficits significativos em todo Brasil. A falta de cobertura a determinadas áreas, a prestação de maneira negligente e o tratamento inadequado das águas servidas é um fator determinante no atraso econômico e social de várias populações. Com base nessa problemática, o presente trabalho investiga e descreve alguns dos aspectos da prestação do serviço de esgotamento sanitário em municípios de pequeno porte na Paraíba, descrevendo o cenário atual do mesmo. Para tal, foi feito um levantamento, junto a órgãos públicos, prefeituras e população, que permitiu o tratamento e organização de informações que serviram para construção de um banco de dados, que permitiu a análise e caracterização de aspectos desse serviço no estado , principalmente, no que se refere, ao acesso a coleta e tratamento dos esgotos gerados na zona urbana. Ficou evidente que os municípios com pequena população são os que apresentam piores índices e taxas de atendimento e tratamento. A situação de atendimento é precária em todas as localidades avaliadas, não atingindo taxas de coleta acima de 55%. Em todos os municípios foram encontrados lançamento de esgotos a céu aberto, sendo que em alguns deles, essa era a única destinação final das águas servidas. Foi possível, desta forma, identificar os quadros mais frágeis para o atendimento desse serviço, para que sejam criadas políticas de planejamento direcionadas para essas fragilidades e também para que esses serviços atinjam o acesso de maneira satisfatória e igualitária para todas as esferas da sociedade direcionando as autoridades competentes, de modo eficiente, para esse objetivo.

A equipe de enfermagem desempenha um papel vital, fornecendo cuidados e apoio tanto em ambientes hospitalares quanto domiciliares. Os cuidados paliativos não aceleram a morte, mas oferecem uma morte digna e mais confortável. A abordagem interdisciplinar, como destacada por Silva, enriquece a eficácia dos cuidados. Conclusão: destaca-se a importância crítica dos cuidados paliativos no tratamento de pacientes com câncer. Ao fornecer suporte abrangente e humano, os cuidados paliativos não apenas aliviam o sofrimento, mas também enriquecem a qualidade de vida. Esta abordagem, guiada pelo compromisso com a dignidade e compaixão, molda um caminho promissor para melhorar a experiência dos pacientes enfrentando desafios oncológicos.

Published: October 2023

Mining generates great environmental impacts, in addition to a large amount of waste. In order to comply with environmental legislation, the production of seedlings is one of the actions carried out, which requires a large volume of substrates, generally commercial. The topsoil it is a residue with physical-chemical characteristics with potential for agricultural use, present in large quantities, reaching 33 thousand m3. This research aimed to know the technical feasibility of topsoil added to commercial substrate for the production of seedlings of four native Caatinga species. The experiment was carried out in a completely randomized design, in a 5 x 4 factorial model, with five topsoil levels (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100%) and four species [‘Canafístula’ (Peltophorum dubium), ‘Farinha Seca’ (Albizia hasslerii), ‘Timbaúba’ (Enterolobium contortisiliquum) and ‘Ipê Branco’ (Tabebuia roseo-alba)]. Considering the Dickson quality index, for the species ‘Canafístula’ and ‘Ipê Branco’, 74.1 and 36.1% are the maximum limits of topsoil and, for ‘Farinha Seca’ and ‘Timbaúba’, up to 100% can be used. In general, the addition of topsoil to the substrate will allow savings of 77% in substrate costs, making its use in the production of forest seedlings economically viable and environmentally correct.

A preocupação com a atual matriz energética do mundo provocou muitos países a buscarem formas mais sustentáveis de produzir energia, uma dessas forma é através da utilização da biomassa proveniente de resíduos urbanos e agrícolas. Através da briquetagem, há uma maneira de transformar os resíduos, que não seriam reutilizados nem descartados de forma correta, em briquetes que é um biocombustível sólido e compactado. Nesta pesquisa, os briquetes foram feitos em laboratório utilizando misturas de Pinus sp. e bagaço de cana de açúcar. Com um total de sete tratamentos, T1(100% Bagaço), T2(25% Pinus + 75% Bagaço), T3(75% Pinus + 25% Bagaço), T4(100% Pinus), enquanto que "T5", "T6" e "T7" foram feitos com uma proporção de 50% Pinus e 50% Bagaço, todos os tratamentos têm uma granulometria de 10 mesh. O objetivo do presente projeto foi analisar a resistência mecânica das misturas. Os briquetes foram produzidos com uma máquina de briquetagem manual com uma pressão de 15 toneladas. T5 é a mistura com queima mais rápida devido a seu alto conteúdo volátil e baixo conteúdo de carbono fixo, enquanto T2 tem o maior tratamento de carbono fixo. O T1 (bagaço puro) foi visto como o briquete com maior taxa de umidade, enquanto o meio bagaço meio pinus sp. apresentou o menor teor de umidade, embora os briquetes à base de pinus cresçam e resistam mais ao impacto do que os à base de bagaço. No entanto, a taxa do PCS foi maior em T4 (100% Pinus sp.). Concluiu-se que o pinus, é um bom material para produzir briquetes, afinal, suas características como PCS elevado e pequeno teor de cinzas é importante para gerar energia.

Introduction: This study was conducted to evaluate the relation between extra articular distal radius fracture associated with and without ulnar styloid fracture and the rotational movements of wrist and forearm. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study was performed on 86 unilateral, extra articular distal radius fracture, treated conservatively. Associated ulnar styloid fracture was present in 42 (48.8%) group Aand 44 (51.2%) with intact ulnar styloid group B. Men were 54 (62.8%) and women 32 (37.2%). Distal radius fracture involving right, dominant side were 56 (65.1%). All patients were treated by one surgeon with close reduction under anaesthesia with plaster immobilisation. Long arm cast was applied with forearm in supination wrist in ulnar volar flexion and after 2 weeks changed to below elbow cast with wrist in neutral rotation. Results: The mean limitation of supination was 7.82 ± 5.19 for group 1 (intact styloid) and 23.82±14.41 for group 2 (fractured styloid). The mean limitation of pronation was 4.72 ± 3.68 for group 1 (intact styloid) and 3.29 ± 2.79 for group 2 (fractured styloid). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant regarding the limitation of supination, but not about the 0 0 0 limitation of pronation. The average pronation deformity was 120 (range 60 to 190 ) in patients with dorsal malunion and 110 0 (range 50 to 210) in volar malunion. The supination deformity averaged at about 80° (range 40° to 140°) in dorsal and 120 0 0 (range 80 to 170 ) in volarly angulated distal radius malunion.

Background: Unused and expired medicines pose a significant risk to the environment if they are not stored or disposed of properly. Proper knowledge and understanding of the dangers posed by these medicines to the environment and their disposal techniques is necessary. Aim:To evaluate the knowledge and attitude of consumers as well as students regarding the disposal of unused medications. Material and Methods: Evaluation of awareness and attitude regarding the disposal of medicines and their adverse effects was done using a questionnaire among 346 participants (MBBS and BDS students and the consumers). Results were expressed in frequency and percentages. Comparative analysis between medical students and consumers for the above parameters was done using Pearson's Chi-Square test. Results: Awareness and attitude possessed by the participants were subpar than expected. Even if the attitudes of the consumers and medical students were comparable, the latter were significantly less aware of the effects (81% v/s 69%; p=0.009) of improper disposal on the environment and humans. Conclusion: Both consumers and medical students had a basic understanding of medication pollution but need a comprehensive understanding of the causes and effects of this issue. The consumers comparatively had higher awareness about disposal and adverse effects of unused/expired medications than medical students.

A comprehensive longitudinal study of gut microbiota dynamic changes in laying hens at four growth stages prior to egg production
Authors: Choi Seojin , Kim Eun Bae
Published: October 2023

Objective: The poultry industry is a primary source of animal protein worldwide. The gut microbiota of poultry birds, such as chickens and ducks, is critical in maintaining their health, growth, and productivity. This study aimed to identify longitudinal changes in the gut microbiota of laying hens from birth to the pre-laying stage.Methods: From a total of 80 Hy-Line Brown laying hens, birds were selected based on weight at equal intervals to collect feces (n = 20 per growth) and ileal contents (n = 10 per growth) for each growth stage (days 10, 21, 58, and 101). The V4 regions of the 16S rRNA gene were amplified after extracting DNA from feces and ileal contents. Amplicon sequencing was performed using Illumina, followed by analysis.Results: Microbial diversity increased with growth stages, regardless of sampling sites. Microbial community analysis indicated that Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, and Bacteroidetes were the dominant phyla in the feces and ileal. The abundance of Lactobacillus was highest on day 10, and that of Escherichia-shigella was higher on day 21 than those at the other stages at the genus level (for the feces and ileal contents; p<0.05). Furthermore, Turicibacter was the most abundant genus after changing feed (for the feces and ileal contents; p<0.05). The fecal Ruminococcus torques and ileal Lysinibacillus were negatively correlated with the body weights of chickens (p<0.05).Conclusion: The gut microbiota of laying hens changes during the four growth stages, and interactions between microbiota and feed may be present. Our findings provide valuable data for understanding the gut microbiota of laying hens at various growth stages and future applied studies.

Published: October 2023

Background: As the repair capacity of the nervous system is low, stem cell therapy is a trend for replacement therapy. Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) have the potential to differentiate into many tissues, such as neurons. Harmine (7-methoxy-1methyl-9H-pyrido[3,4-b] indole) is an alkaloidal component of medicinal plants with a long history in traditional medicine. Alginate is a biocompatible hydrogel widely used as a biomaterial base in various scaffolds. Objectives: This study investigated whether harmine and encapsulation of cells in alginate hydrogel could improve DPSCs differentiation into neural cells. Methods: DPSCs were cultured under standard stem cell culture conditions, then encapsulated in alginate hydrogel, and treated with differentiation medium with and without harmine. After 14 days, cell proliferation and differentiation were assessed by the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and flow cytometry. Results: Harmine (5 and 10 μM) significantly increased the proliferation and viability of DPSCs compared to the control group in both two-dimensional and three-dimensional culture systems (P < 0.05). The expression levels of three neural cell markers (nestin, microtubule-associated protein [MAP-2], and β-tubulin III) in DPSCs-derived neural cells cultured in two-dimensional and three-dimensional culture systems were significantly increased in harmine-treated two-dimensional and three-dimensional culture systems compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Either harmine or alginate hydrogel had an accelerating effect on DPSCs differentiation into neural cells. Harmine also increased the proliferation of the cells.

Published: October 2023

Background: Sperm cryopreservation can reduce the quality of sperm. Antioxidants can improve sperm parameters by decreasing oxidative stress. Objectives: This study was performed to determine the effect of supplementing sperm freezing media with cysteamine on the quality of sperm after freezing. Methods: This descriptive-analytical research was conducted at Omolbanin Center for Infertility Treatment in Dezful, Iran, in 2022. The samples included 60 men with normosperm based on the World Health Organization standards. Each sample was divided into three parts: 1. fresh semen group, 2. semen frozen with 10 mmol cysteamine supplementation, and 3. semen frozen without cysteamine supplementation. Viability, motility, morphology, total antioxidant capacity (TAC), and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were evaluated. The results were described using SPSS version 22, and the significance level was considered P ≤ 0.05. Results: The mean of progressive motility was significantly higher in the fresh semen group (48.3 ± 4.74) compared to the two other groups. The mean progressive motility was significantly lower in the group without cysteamine supplementation (24.4 ± 3.38) than in the group with cysteamine supplementation (35.3 ± 4.9). Moreover, TAC was significantly higher in the group with cysteamine supplementation (816.6 ± 4.36) than in the other groups. We found that the MDA level was significantly higher in the group without cysteamine supplementation than in the other groups (36.5 ± 2.51). Conclusions: According to the results of the present study, appropriate conditions for preserving the sperm parameters after cryopreservation could be created by adding cysteamine to the sperm cryopreservation media as an antioxidant effective on sperm parameters.
