Optimasi Pasca Panen untuk Peningkatan Kualitas Biji Kakao : Review
Authors: Iswari Kasma
Published: February 2024

Kualitas biji kakao merupakan faktor utama yang menentukan rasa, aroma, dan karakteristik produk cokelat yang dihasilkan. Oleh karena itu, optimasi pascapanen kakao yang mencakup umur panen/indek panen, fermentasi biji kakao dan pengeringan biji memiliki peran penting dalam memastikan kualitas biji kakao. Penentuan umur panen secara konvensional menghasilkan kualitas biji tidak  seragam. Saat ini dihasilkan suatu model yang dihubungkan dengan komputer untuk mengidentifikasi  tingkat kematangan buah kakao dengan menggabungkan penggunaan teknik spektrogram dan deep learning melalui Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) untuk mengklasifikasikan tingkat kematangan  biji kakao berdasarkan suara yang dihasilkan saat pod kakao dipukul (thumping) yang dikenal dengan Metode Deep Learning. Pengolahan citra digital juga dapat digunakan untuk menentukan indek kematangan buah kakao dengan menggunakan tabel warna berdasarkan parameter warna dan indeks kematangan. Proses fermentasi dipengaruhi oleh suhu, oksigen, air dan substrat. Untuk mencapai suhu optimal (44-48°C) dan warna biji kakao yang dihasilkan lebih baik dapat dilakukan dengan menggunakan wadah kotak kayu  ukuran besar (70 cm x 90 cm x 100 cm). Jenis wadah juga mempengaruhi hasil fermentasi. Untuk skala kecil, tas jute jauh lebih baik karena diperoleh suhu maksimum, jumlah biji terfermentasi lebih tinggi dan rasa pahit berkurang. Metode pengeringan dengan sinar matahari terbuka, tenaga surya, oven, microwave, dan pengeringan beku telah diteliti untuk pengeringan biji kakao dengan tujuan meningkatkan kualitas akhir biji kakao. Optimasi metode pengeringan biji kakao  dapat dilakukan dengan pengering rumah kaca tenaga surya (pada suhu 21–52°C), karena dapat menghilangkan risiko jamur dan kontaminasi eksternal pada biji kakao akibat hujan dan hama serta menghasilkan kualitas biji sesuai standar mutu standar SNI 2323-2008/Amandemen 1:2010

HEMATOLOGICAL DYNAMICS IN HEMODIALYSIS: A COMPREHENSIVE EXAMINATION OF PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC RENAL FAILURE IN A TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL
Authors: Krishna Upadhye  , Dr. Uttam Kumar Aggarwal
Published: February 2024

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant health burden in developing countries like India, leading to high morbidity and mortality rates. The study aimed to determine the incidence of anemia among patients with CKD and examine its potential association with other predictive markers.
Methods: A cross-sectional observational research was undertaken within a tertiary hospital setting to examine the incidence of hematological abnormalities and explore the association between anemia and its many manifestations in patients with stages 3-5 chronic kidney disease (CKD). The markers for anemia encompassed measurements of hemoglobin percentage (Hb%), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), and examination of peripheral smears. The investigation also examined the correlation between stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and red cell distribution width (RDW), thrombocytopenia, leucocyte count, and differential count.
Result: The study found that 96.8% of participants displayed symptoms of anemia, characterized by normocytic and normochromic observations on peripheral measures. A significant number of patients (57.3% of them) had a higher total leucocyte count (TLC), but there was no statistically significant link between a higher TLC and the worsening stages of CKD. The mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and platelet levels exhibited a predominantly normal range, with relatively few observed fluctuations. However, there is a positive link between the advancement of CKD and an increase in red cell distribution width (RDW).
Conclusion: The study highlights the changes in blood parameters observed in individuals with CKD, with particular attention given to the high occurrence of anemia. The findings underscore the importance of comprehensive iron investigations and the timely identification and intervention of anemia. Adopting a comprehensive strategy that includes regular monitoring of blood parameters, specifically focusing on anemia and iron levels, is crucial for effectively managing and enhancing the overall health of individuals with CKD

Published: February 2024

The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effects of an infusion obtained from dried Chinar (Platanus orientalis L.; PO) leaves against ethanol (EtOH)-induced damage in rat testes. Thirty male Wistar rats were randomly and equally divided into 5 groups, as the Control, EtOH 20%, EtOH 20% + Silymarin (10 mg/kg/day), EtOH 20% + PO-20 mg/mL infusion, and EtOH 20% + PO-60 mg/mL infusion. Histopathologically, treatment with PO-60 leaf infusion resulted in improvements in EtOH-induced damage in the testes by inhibiting the depletion of germ cells and loss of spermatozoa. Immunohistochemically, an increase in the expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and caspase-3 was observed in the EtOH group. Treatment with the PO extract markedly reduced the EtOH-induced expression of eNOS and caspase-3 in the EtOH 20% + PO-60 group. According to the biochemical results, both of the PO infusion treatments caused a decrease in the malondialdehyde levels compared to the EtOH group. On the other hand, the glutathione contents in the treatment groups were significantly higher than ethanol group. Fluctuations in antioxidant defense enzyme activities were determined. PO leaf might have a protective role against EtOH-induced testicular damage in rats by inducing apoptosis via the upregulation of eNOS expression and preventing lipid peroxidation.
Keywords: Platanus orientalis; eNOS; caspase-3; Ethanol; Immunohistochemistery
Economic Impact of Forest Damage in an Alpine Environment
Authors: Notaro Sandra , Paletto Alessandro , Raffaelli Roberta
Published: February 2024

The aim of this paper is to evaluate the situation regarding the main types of damage to forests and their respective economic consequences, with reference to a case study in the Italian Alps (Trentino province). Each kind of damage (wind and snow, defoliation, fire and tillage) has been analysed in terms of its impact on four forest functions (production, protection, tourismrecreation and carbon sequestration) and evaluated in monetary terms. Market value was used to estimate the production and carbon sequestration functions, replacement cost method for protection, and contingent valuation for tourism-recreation. Applying desk research on damage caused by the main biotic and abiotic factors to this particular case study led us to estimate a annual damage of about € 1,624,921 equal to 4.71 € per hectare. This can be considered a lower bound estimate of possibly greater damage. Another interesting result that emerged from the evaluation exercise is that the wealth of information produced through monitoring and scientific research in the last twenty years does not readily lend itself to economic analysis.

Sus scrofa: Population Structure, Reproduction and Condition in Tropical North-Eastern Australia
Authors: Heise-Pavlov Peter M. , Heise-Pavlov Sigrid R. , Nelson John E.
Published: February 2024

Three feral pig populations inhabiting contrasting environments along the north eastern coast of Australia have been investigated with respect to population structure, individual condition and reproduction. The population on Prince of Wales Island contains a large proportion of juvenile and sub-adult pigs but lacks pigs in the higher age classes. Individuals also breed at an earlier age than animals of the mainland populations. Pig populations on Cape York Peninsula show a larger proportion of older animals and feral pigs living in rainforest habitats show a low proportion of animals in very young and very old age classes. Pigs from the lowland rainforest population are in better condition than those of the other populations for most of the year, reflecting the availability of food all year round in this environment. Differences in the population structure of the three populations are discussed with respect to fecundity and several mortality factors such as predation and diseases/parasites.

This research aimed to investigate the social and emotional skills of students through participation in secondary school concert bands. Using a qualitative approach, the study involved a focus group interview of 10-12 students who are section heads, and a semi-structured interview with the band director of each secondary school concert band that made it to the final round of competitions held in Thailand over the past five years. The result revealed that students exhibited strong self-learning capacities with respect to their social and emotional learning (SEL) skills in the following ways; a) self-awareness―they knew their strengths and weaknesses, knew how to improve themselves and were able to deal with their own feelings, b) self-management―they demonstrated effective management in their own practice routine, dealing and overcoming stress and pressure, c) social awareness―they empathised with and understood the perspectives of others and recognised their diverse backgrounds and cultures, d) relationship skills―they built strong relationships with other members, band directors and band alumni, negotiated conflict among other members and sought and offered help when necessary, and e) responsible decision making―they learned to make decisions responsibly and reasonably on behalf of their bands.
Before Their Ears and Minds: Sublation in the Musical Praxis of José Maceda and Mathias Spahlinger
Authors: Baes Jonas Ureta
Published: February 2024

The objective of this article is to construct an analytic framework for new music based on Hegel’s dialectics and focusing on José Maceda’s Music for Gongs and Bamboo (1997) and Mathias Spahlinger’s Gegen Unendlich (1995). This unlikely opposition between two important composers, José Maceda (1917–2004) from the Philippines and Mathias Spahlinger (b. 1944) from Germany, becomes an entry point into discussing the nature of the dialectical process in Hegelian thought, which is rooted in the principle of sublation (German aufheben or aufhebung). Music is seen as a potent human endeavour that underscores sublation when musical works are experienced and the transformations of musical material emerge in the ears and the minds of the listeners. It is for this assumption that the matter of perception pervades through the analysis and the discussions in the paper. Examining the unique compositional processes in both works demonstrates how sublation is a most effective tool in the understanding of the praxis and the composer’s mind-work, especially in both cases where each uniquely challenges the Western traditional harmonic gestalt.

Linie – Priel – Strömung. Instabiles Katastrophenwissen und Ozeanographie in Theodor Storms Der Schimmelreiter
Authors: Völker Oliver
Published: February 2024

Abstract Der Aufsatz setzt sich mit dem Verhältnis von Festland und Meer in Storms Der Schimmelreiter auseinander. Die Forschung geht meist von einer topographischen Gegenüberstellung aus, die den im Zentrum der Novelle stehenden Konflikt zwischen Aufklärung
und Irrationalität illustriert. Demnach verweist das durch Arbeit gestaltete Festland auf Prinzipien der kulturellen Ordnung, der Abbildbarkeit im Medium der Karte und auf eine realistische Poetik des Erzählens. Jenseits des Deichs erstreckt sich demgegenüber das Meer als ein
lebensfeindliches Prinzip, das jede Ordnung des Raums unterspült und metonymisch für eine dem Menschen gegenübergestellte Natur einsteht. Der Beitrag arbeitet heraus, wie die vermeintlich getrennten Bereiche von Land und Meer durch eine Reihe an Verbindungswegen in Kontakt zueinander
treten. Das Meer ist demnach kein negatives Prinzip der Leere, sondern weist eine eigene Dynamik auf, die ich in den Begriffen des Spiels und der Strömung verdeutliche. Gestalt erlangen diese dynamischen Wasserkräfte besonders im Priel, der in Storms Novelle die Katastrophe bedingt,
der die Hauptfiguren rund um Hauke Haien zum Opfer fallen.

Authors: Yoshida Masayuki , Inoue Yuhei , Pizzo Anthony D. , Nagazumi Jin , Aizawa Kurumi
Published: February 2024

Mega-sport events are frequently criticized for excessive commercialization and sustainability concerns. By contrast, non-mega sport events (NMSEs) offer more cost-effective, locally suitable, and socially sustainable benefits. To understand the lasting influence of NMSEs on local sport
participation, we constructed a research model based on systems theory and integrated with youth and grassroots sport development legacies into a trickle-down effect model to examine their mediating roles. In the context of the National Sports Festival, an annual Japanese sport competition,
we surveyed sport and government officials (N = 158) on the legacies of youth and grassroots sport development, sport infrastructure, sport inspiration, and sport participation. The findings indicate both sport infrastructure and sport inspiration legacies have positive indirect effects
on sport participation legacy through grassroots sport development legacy. This study adds new insights on the importance of NMSEs, identifying grassroots sport development legacy as a mediating mechanism that facilitates sport participation.

Published: February 2024

In this article, we use the functional variational method to solve the Burgers equation with an additional time-dependent variable coefficient. The main advantage of the proposed method over other methods is that it allows to obtain more new solutions of the equation. Among the solutions obtained, new soliton solutions should be noted, which are of great importance for revealing the internal mechanism of physical phenomena. Three-dimensional graphs of solutions are constructed using the mathematical program Matlab. For a better understanding of the physical properties of some of the resulting solutions, their graphical representations are shown. This method is effective for finding exact solutions to many other similar wave equations.

NEW CREATIVE PERSPECTIVE ON EXISTENTIAL AND SOCIAL UNDERCURRENTS IN BRITISH GOTHIC NOVELS
Authors: Nair Aswathy A. S. , Dwivedi Laxmi Dhar
Published: February 2024

Changes that occur often in the world around us in accordance with each period’s change. It is a common trend in writing to introduce new tendencies, and the Gothic subgenre exhibits this tendency. The term Gothic has its roots in the early 16th century and refers to a mysterious quality that appears in some metaphysical items. This paper is a humble attempt to explore the history of the Gothic novel and demonstrate how mystery alone recreates this genre in British literature. The ability of intangible components to incite fear in readers was lessened with the rise of the mysterious portrayal of a story in day-to-day life. As the Gothic novel began to examine reality, readers’ desire to learn the truth increased. This paper investigates to understand the reasons for the abrupt disappearance of metaphysical components and increased focus and importance on existential and social issues by examining a few randomly chosen modern novels and comparing them to the earlier Gothic classics. It highlights the differences occurring in readers’ views according to the various times while also evaluating the variance occurring within the Gothic genre.
Passing Stars as an Important Driver of Paleoclimate and the Solar System’s Orbital Evolution
Authors: Kaib Nathan A. , Raymond Sean N.
Published: February 2024

Reconstructions of the paleoclimate indicate that ancient climatic fluctuations on Earth are often correlated with variations in its orbital elements. However, the chaos inherent in the solar system’s orbital evolution prevents numerical simulations from confidently predicting Earth’s past orbital evolution beyond 50–100 Myr. Gravitational interactions among the Sun’s planets and asteroids are believed to set this limiting time horizon, but most prior works approximate the solar system as an isolated system and neglect our surrounding Galaxy. Here we present simulations that include the Sun’s nearby stellar population, and we find that close-passing field stars alter our entire planetary system’s orbital evolution via their gravitational perturbations on the giant planets. This shortens the timespan over which Earth’s orbital evolution can be definitively known by a further ∼10%. In particular, in simulations that include an exceptionally close passage of the Sun-like star HD 7977 2.8 Myr ago, new sequences of Earth’s orbital evolution become possible in epochs before ∼50 Myr ago, which includes the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum. Thus, simulations predicting Earth’s past orbital evolution before ∼50 Myr ago must consider the additional uncertainty from passing stars, which can open new regimes of past orbital evolution not seen in previous modeling efforts.

Published: February 2024

Background/Aims: Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) shares pathophysiological properties with other visceral fats and potentially triggers local inflammation. However, the association of EAT with cardiovascular disease (CVD) is still debatable. The study aimed to observe the changes and associations in EAT and risk factors over time, as well as to investigate whether EAT was associated with CVD.Methods: A total of 762 participants from Seoul National University Hospital (SNUH) and SNUH Gangnam Center were included in this study. EAT was measured using coronary computed tomography angiography.Results: Baseline EAT level was positively associated with body mass index (BMI), calcium score, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) 10-year risk score, glucose, triglycerides (TG)/high-density lipoprotein (HDL), but not with total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL). At follow-up, EAT levels increased in all groups, with low EAT groups demonstrating a significant increase in EAT per year. Change in EAT was associated with a change in BMI, TG/HDL, and glucose, while changes in LDL, calcium score, and ASCVD 10-year risk score were not associated. Although calcium score and ASCVD 10-year risk score were associated with CVD events, baseline information of EAT, baseline EAT/body surface area, or EAT change was not available.Conclusions: Metabolic risks, e.g., BMI, TG/HDL, and glucose, were associated with EAT change per year, whereas classical CVD risks, e.g., LDL, calcium score, and ASCVD 10-year risk score, were not. The actual CVD event was not associated with EAT volume, warranting future studies combining qualitative assessments with quantitative ones.
Recherches sur la Sustainability

Dans ce chapitre, nous souhaitons examiner la durabilité dans le contexte du concept de responsabilité sociale des entreprises (RSE) en prenant l’exemple d’une moyenne entreprise multinationale (PME). Dans le monde d’aujourd’hui, la RSE et la question de la durabilité jouent un rôle de plus en plus important. Mais comment la mise en œuvre se déroule-t-elle dans le contexte particulier des petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) multinationales ? Dans ce contexte, des sujets et des questions génériques auxquels les entreprises de toutes tailles sont confrontées entrent en ligne de compte : quelles certifications ou quels labels sont envisagés ou attendus par les parties prenantes ? Quel est l’élément déclencheur de la mise en œuvre de la RSE dans un projet ? Quels moyens spécifiques les PME ont-elles trouvés pour canaliser ou simplifier les enjeux ? En prenant l’exemple d’une entreprise, nous montrons comment des informations peuvent être obtenues pour soutenir le développement et la mise en œuvre d’une stratégie de RSE ou de durabilité et, dans un deuxième temps, nous illustrons comment les sous-domaines de l’entreprise peuvent être priorisés dans la mise en œuvre.

Ce chapitre a pour objectif de présenter une vue d’ensemble des recherches sur le thème du digital sustainability , tel qu’il est traité de façon empirique par les chercheurs en Systèmes d’Information (SI). Pour cela, une analyse bibliométrique de 287 articles référencés dans les journaux reconnus par la communauté SI est effectuée. Les résultats confirment un récent intérêt pour le sujet, ces cinq dernières années. Cet intérêt est inégalement réparti en intensité et selon les périodes : les États-Unis ont été les pionniers, suivis par l’Europe et l’Australie, relayés par la Chine qui est la plus active actuellement. L’Afrique est la grande absente. En Europe, la France n’apparaît pas non plus. Un autre résultat découlant de notre analyse des documents centraux met en lumière l’absence de convergence dans les terminologies : la sustainability est tantôt une durabilité environnementale, tantôt une durabilité temporelle, confirmant son caractère polysémique. Un dernier résultat suite à l’analyse du réseau de co-occurrence des mots-clés affiche une structure intriquée, confirmant le caractère complexe et systémique du phénomène étudié. Ces résultats et analyses ont permis de dégager quelques pistes de recherche.
