An extremely rare form of diabetes mellitus is monogenic diabetes, a subset of which is permanent neonatal diabetes which is usually suspected in a child less than 6 months presenting with hyperglycaemia. We are reporting case of a 40 days old female child with an autosomal dominant INS gene mutation which results in permanent neonatal diabetes in infants requiring lifelong insulin therapy.
POLY ALKYL CYANOACRYLATE NANOPARTICLES AS DELIVERY VEHICLE IN COMBATING DISEASES
Authors: Mandal Ardhendu Kumar
Published: December 2020

The major problems in drug delivery to specific diseased sites possess drug-resistance, drug-toxicity, biological barriers and non-specificity to the target-cells observed among patients worldwide. To overcome these barriers, the biodegradable poly alkyl cyanoacrylate (PACA) nanocarriers have been used, while a core made up of PACA is functionalized with biologically active ligands such as cargos, biotin and antibody for enabling specific targeting, and stabilized with outer polyethylene glycol or surfactants in combating cancer, neurodegenerative and infectious diseases. The review demonstrates mainly the synthesis, functionalizations and the biomedical applications of PACA nanoparticles against various diseases to consider them as potent delivery vehicle.

International Development Cooperation in the Fields of Water and Sanitation: A Comparative Study of the United States and the Spanish Approaches in Latin America and the Caribbean
Authors: Colina Martín Sergio
Published: December 2020

In the last decade, the access to drinking water and sanitation have been acknowledged as human rights by the international community; they have also been recognized as a crucial goal for achieving sustainable development for all, in the framework of the 2030 Agenda. The need for international cooperation in those fields has gained new attention, and several multilateral actors and development agencies (including USAID and AECID) have consolidated or amplified their support to the WASH sector in developing countries. A comparative analysis of the different ways in which the United States and the Spanish cooperation conceive, design and implement their development programmes in Latin America and the Caribbean can contribute to a better understanding on the strategies to effectively protect and promote those human rights and to achieve SDG 6.

Authors: Arifi Arben , Tetaj Luan
Published: December 2020

The Monastery of Deçan is a monument of cultural heritage in Deçan-Kosova. The monastery was built in the 14th century, and is listed at the UNESCO monuments list. The monastery of Deçan is considered one of the most important cultural and monumental building pertaining to the medieval period in Kosova and in the region in general. The paper deals especially with the historical aspect of its existence as well as its architectonic properties. The architecture of monastery of Deçan is characterized by Byzantine elements, but one can also observe Roman Italian elements in its architecture. The attempts to appropriate and assimilate the historical and cultural background that is characteristic to the monastery, and classify it as a Serbian monastery are numerous and often times lack sufficient scientific basis. The monastery of Deçan, with its Roman-Gothic architecture and its unique history enriches the cultural mosaic of cultural heritage in Kosova, and as such it is part of the culture of all Kosovars.
Um estudo acerca da potencialidade significativa de um material de ensino sobre circunferência e círculo
Authors: Silva Rufino Maria Aparecida da , Silva José Roberto da
Published: December 2020

Apesar das reformulações por que passou o ensino de matemática, ainda há diversas barreiras a serem superadas, a exemplo do que ocorre na difusão das ideias de circunferência e de círculo, explorando-se excessivamente o manuseio mecânico das fórmulas, sem considerar o raciocínio matemático que lhes dão sustentação. Dessa forma, investe-se na aplicação de um material de ensino, sobre a forma de oficina, na qual se reconstrói algumas ideias da base histórica desses objetos e seus cálculos, estimulando os processos cognitivos ausubelianos da diferenciação progressiva e da reconciliação integradora. A fim de caracterizar a potencialidade significativa desse material, a oficina foi aplicada em uma turma de 42 alunos do 9º ano do EF, de uma escola do município de Lagoa de Itaenga – PE/Br. Trata-se de um estudo de caso educativo, cujas respostas a um questionário diagnóstico, reaplicado como questionário avaliativo, dão conta de que parte dos alunos evoluíram conceitualmente sobre as ideias de círculo e  de circunferência e sobre o processo de aquisição e aplicação das fórmulas do comprimento da circunferência e da área do círculo. Isso foi possível a partir da aplicação da oficina quando vivenciaram algumas tentativas históricas para a obtenção desses modelos, como o uso do método da exaustão arquimediano. Mediante estes dados caracteriza-se o material como potencialmente significativo.
Atividades investigativas no ensino de função afim: desafios e possibilidades
Authors: Sousa Ivan Bezerra de , Pimentel de Almeida José Joelson
Published: December 2020

As atividades elaboradas por professores para suas aulas de Matemática apresentam diferentes ramificações, todas com um mesmo propósito, a aprendizagem dos alunos sobre os assuntos requeridos no currículo. No presente artigo expomos algumas reflexões sobre atividades investigativas em sala de aula, destacando uma que envolve o ensino de função afim, mostrando desde sua elaboração, até a aplicação e análise dos resultados obtidos. Trata-se de uma atividade investigativa desenvolvida no ano de 2017, envolvendo uma turma de primeiro ano do Ensino Médio. Considerando o contexto de aplicação, discutimos sobre o potencial de aulas investigativas como metodologia a ser adotada no ensino de Matemática, considerando que a produção de significados pode ocorrer de forma mais dinâmica a partir dos conhecimentos prévios e estratégias pessoais de resolução de problemas, ou seja, considerando o repertório de conhecimentos e de estratégias pessoais dos próprios alunos, podendo, inclusive, levar a diferentes resultados para uma mesma situação. A atividade foi elaborada com ênfase na venda de geladinhos e foi dividida em três etapas. Na primeira, foi discutido sobre isto como uma possibilidade de empreendedorismo; na segunda, foi explorado um quadro com os ingredientes de nove sabores de geladinhos; e, na terceira etapa, cada equipe trabalhou com um único sabor, com o objetivo de criar estratégias para as vendas desse produto, descobrir o valor do custo de produção, do preço de venda e do lucro obtido com dois geladinhos de tamanhos diferentes.  A partir da investigação proposta e que era particular para cada equipe, pediu-se que os alunos determinassem as funções que representavam o preço de custo, de venda e de lucro de cada sabor de geladinho, os gráficos dessas funções e o ponto de vista de cada uma delas sobre a atividade que estava em pauta. Foi constatado uma maior interação entre os alunos, raciocínios diferentes para o mesmo fim e uma ótima oportunidade para discutirmos situações tão presentes em nosso dia a dia, como o empreendedorismo e o capitalismo que estão tão presentes em nosso cotidiano e na sociedade em que estamos inseridos.
Ensino dos números racionais a partir de materiais manipuláveis e objetos de aprendizagens
Authors: Melo José Ronaldo , Machado Bastos Elisabeth
Published: December 2020

Esta pesquisa teve por escopo investigar na sala aula de Matemática, do 6° ano do Ensino Fundamental, em qual perspectiva se desenvolve o ensino dos números fracionários. Para a produção dos dados foram aplicados dois questionários, que resultaram num mapa conceitual, bem como sete atividades que se deram com o uso de materiais manipuláveis e digitais. Os resultados obtidos através desses recursos revelaram apropriação do algoritmo comum, apresentados nos livros didáticos, assim como a não compreensão do conceito de equivalência, o que caracteriza a aprendizagem como mecânica, em que o aprendiz não vincula os conceitos prévios aos conceitos presentes em sua estrutura cognitiva. Considerando que o mapeador desenha as proposições de acordo com o objetivo focal proposto pelo professor e o seu conhecimento prévio, foi possível estabelecer a comparação dos dois mapas e, assim, verificar um avanço considerável na abstração dos conceitos de equivalência, potencializados mediante o uso do material desenvolvido para esse fim. Sabe-se que a aprendizagem significativa é dependente da estrutura cognitiva idiossincrática do indivíduo e requer a associação de um conceito a outro dentro de um sistema hierarquicamente organizado, uma vez a aprendizagem sendo formal depende de mecanismo para a apresentação dos conceitos e da retenção pelo indivíduo. Nessa perspectiva, é emergente a mudança na prática docente, no sentido do uso de uma variedade maior de recursos que fomentem a assimilação de informações.

Published: December 2020

The door is an essential part of any structure that provides access and security of lives and properties. The manual operation of a door could be cumbersome and laborious when the traffic volume is high. Also, it has been observed that doors could serve as a medium of spreading the deadly coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection. Therefore, a prototype automatic sliding door that plays a crucial role in curbing the spread of this infectious diseases has been designed and implemented in this paper. The design of the prototype sliding door is in two parts namely; the structural part and the automation part. The structural design of the door was achieved using the Microsoft Visio 2016 while the design of the automation system was achieved using express printed circuit board. The implementation of the structural part was achieved using 1 inch particle board while the implementation of the automation system was based on the components like the active infrared sensor, resistors (10 kΩ), capacitor (1000 µF), transistors (TIP41 Q8, BC548 Q7), LED indicators, press button switch, pulley system, drive belt, stepper motor (IP65), and ATMEGA 8 microcontroller. The result of the tests carried out on the door showed that the prototype automatic sliding door was characterized by average opening time, closing time, delay time, and optimal sensing range of 3.10 s, 3.05 s, 5.72 s, and 23.5 cm, respectively. It can therefore be concluded from this work that the prototype automatic sliding door is effective in overriding the manual operation of the door.
Thrombocytopenia in Intensive care units
Authors: Badlou Bahram Alamdary
Published: December 2020

Emergency Medicine Specialists (EMS) are supposed to helping/keeping certain patients alive. Although the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) personnel's priority is just saving life of ICU's patients but their approaches are not always in advantage of treated patients [1-5]. Prevalent thrombocytopenia (on ICU admission) occurred in 8.3% to 67.6% of patients; incident thrombocytopenia (developing during the course of the ICU stay) occurred in 13.0% to 44.1% of patients. High illness severity, sepsis, and organ dysfunction often correlated with thrombocytopenia.
Effectiveness of Oral Health Promotion by Community Health Workers in Reducing Periodontal Diseases among Pregnant Women
Authors: Sania Sania
Published: December 2020

Background: Poor periodontal conditions among pregnant women might be a risk factor for adverse pregnancy outcomes which include preeclampsia, preterm delivery, intrauterine growth restriction, and fetal demise (stillbirth).

Aim: To assess the effectiveness of oral health promotion by community health workers in diminishing periodontal diseases among pregnant women in rural areas of Jammu District.

Methodology: In this community-based cluster randomized controlled study, Jammu district was divided into 5 administrative provinces with a total of 16 PHCs. In our study baseline assessment of Oral Health-related Knowledge, Attitude and Practices, and Oral health status using Oral Hygiene Index was done among pregnant women. Trained ASHA workers served as a medium to impart oral health education to pregnant females on a regular basis. After 3 months of follow up in the 2nd trimester, again oral health-related knowledge, attitude and practices, and oral health status using Oral Hygiene Index were assessed and oral prophylaxis was done for all pregnant women. After 4-5 months birth outcomes were collected at PHC's.

Results: The knowledge about oral health was poor in pregnant women, and it improved after providing health education in pregnant women. Scaling alone as an independent variable did not influence the reduction in the preterm birth week (p= 1.000) and birth weight (p=0.113) at 2ndtrimester of pregnancy.

Conclusion: Sociocultural factors, illiteracy, misconception, and the extra burden of work on ASHA workers are the main reasons for the ineffective transfer of knowledge and very little change in oral health behavior in pregnant women.

Authors: Cheng Yuanjun
Published: December 2020

Pleomorphic liposarcoma rarely develops in the chest area. This report presents a primary pleomorphic liposarcoma that was discovered in the left chest area of a 74-year-old female patient. The patient had presented specific symptoms, including cough, chest tightness and shortness of breath. A radical excision of the tumor was performed. The tumor was extremely large (27 cm - 24 cm- 10 cm) and completely encapsulated. Upon histological examination, it was diagnosed as a giant, pleomorphic liposarcoma. Thereafter, non-specific radiological and endoscopic results during clinical work-up delayed diagnosis until post-operative histology were gathered. In this report, the case-specific clinical and radiological diagnostic challenges are discussed, as well as the relevant surgical and pathological findings.
On the Minimum Size of Hamilton Saturated Hypergraphs
Authors: Ruciński Andrzej , Żak Andrzej
Published: December 2020

For $1\leq \ell< k$,  an $\ell$-overlapping $k$-cycle is a $k$-uniform hypergraph in which, for some cyclic vertex ordering, every edge consists of $k$ consecutive vertices and every two consecutive edges share exactly $\ell$ vertices. A $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$ is $\ell$-hamiltonian saturated if $H$ does not contain an $\ell$-overlapping hamiltonian $k$-cycle but every hypergraph obtained from $H$ by adding one edge does contain such a cycle. Let sat$(N,k,\ell)$ be the smallest number of edges in an $\ell$-hamiltonian saturated $k$-uniform hypergraph on $N$ vertices. In the case of graphs Clark and Entringer showed in 1983 that sat$(N,2,1)=\lceil \tfrac{3N}2\rceil$. The present authors proved that for $k\geq 3$ and $\ell=1$, as well as for all $0.8k\leq \ell\leq k-1$, sat$(N,k,\ell)=\Theta(N^{\ell})$. Here we prove that sat$(N,2\ell,\ell)=\Theta\left(N^\ell\right)$.
Minimal Non-Odd-Transversal Hypergraphs and Minimal Non-Odd-Bipartite Hypergraphs
Authors: Fan Yi-Zheng , Wang Yi , Wan Jiang-Chao
Published: December 2020

Among all uniform hypergraphs with even uniformity, the odd-transversal or odd-bipartite hypergraphs are closer to bipartite simple graphs than bipartite hypergraphs from the viewpoint of both structure and spectrum. A hypergraph is called odd-transversal if it contains a subset of the vertex set such that each edge intersects the subset in an odd number of vertices, and it is called minimal non-odd-transversal if it is not odd-transversal but deleting any edge results in an odd-transversal hypergraph. In this paper we give an equivalent characterization of the minimal non-odd-transversal hypergraphs by means of the degrees and the rank of its incidence matrix over $\mathbb{Z}_2$. If a minimal non-odd-transversal hypergraph is uniform, then it has even uniformity, and hence is minimal non-odd-bipartite. We characterize $2$-regular uniform  minimal non-odd-bipartite hypergraphs, and give some examples of $d$-regular uniform hypergraphs which are minimal non-odd-bipartite. Finally we give upper bounds for the least H-eigenvalue of the adjacency tensor of minimal non-odd-bipartite hypergraphs.

On the problem of authentication using passwords in information interaction
Authors: Metelkov A.
Published: December 2020

There is an ongoing debate among users and specialists about the effectiveness of passwords used to authenticate subjects of access to information systems. The relevance of choosing the topic of the article is explained by the use of passwords in almost any information system, and in many systems password protection is used as the only means. At the same time, the password's resistance to opening often determines the security of the entire information system. Domestic and foreign modern approaches to password policy formation are analyzed and generalized. On this basis, proposals have been developed to improve the protection of information using passwords.

Authors:   Chemical Engineering UNNES, Siami Desy Hikmatul , Yono Novi Hery ,   PPSDM MIGAS
Published: December 2020

The need for petroleum is increasing along with the development of the industry, while the production results from the process of recovering oil from the reservoir by using primary recovery and secondary recovery are still very low so that it takes an advanced stage, namely tertiary recovery or, known as EOR. EOR is a method that produces oil production above 50%. EOR is an effort to increase oil production, so it is included in the IOR (Improved Oil Recovery) section. EOR consists of various applications, ranging from water injection, chemical injection, gases injection to microbiology injection. The stages in the injection of water and gas still leave oil trapped in the rocks in the reservoir. MEOR is one method that can be used to bring oil trapped in reservoir rocks to the surface. The effectiveness of the MEOR method is measured based on several parameters that is formation temperature, oil viscosity, permeability, saltwater salinity, water cut, API gravity crude oil, pH, pressure, residual oil saturation, porosity depth and bacterial content in the reservoir.

Authors: Hanafi Syahrul
Published: December 2020

Indonesia has enormous potential for zakat, but the results of collecting zakat are still far from the existing potential. OPZ has made various ways to increase the collection of zakat funds, one of which is by implementing online zakat payments. This study aims to analyze the resistance to using online zakat payment services. The research approach is quantitative with the help of smartPLS software. This study's variables consist of information variables, which are independent variables, while the dependent variable consists of traditional barrier variables, image barriers, usage barriers, value barriers, and risk barriers. Data in this study collected using a questionnaire. The sample of this study was 100 respondents from various regions in Indonesia. The results showed that the information has a significant and negative effect on the traditional barrier variables, image barrier, usage barrier, value barrier. This means that the greater / more information provided by OPZ, the barrier in using online zakat payment services are getting smaller / less. The information variable on the risk barrier shows insignificant and negative results.
Project «Infiltration» or How to survive in the realm of shadows
Authors: Sukhno Alexey , Gulin Viacheslav
Published: December 2020

The purpose of the article is to change the perception of Hegel's Science of Logic as a classic work that has exclusively «historical» and «philosophical» value. The authors show that it reproduces an ambiguous intellectual situation, which indicates an internal discord in the structure of scientific utterance. This raises the question of the need for a specific action for an adequate reading of Hegel's text, capable of overcoming this ambiguity. The result of using such an action will be that it will remove the critical distance from the reader with respect to the Hegelian work, and will allow him to "enter" into it. This revolution in the perception of the classical philosophical text, according to the authors, should lead to its actualization.

Authors: Sergeeva Nelli G. , Mazlumyan Sofia A.
Published: December 2020

The purpose of these investigations was to understand the response of different meiobenthos taxa on the oxygen depletion in the habitat in the deep-water areas of the Black Sea. The results of first study were published in TrJFAS (Sergeeva et al. 2013) and were devoted to vertical distribution of the deep-sea meiobenthic communities. This article includes a historical overview of research dedicated to meiobenthos and represents first detailed quantitative analysis of taxonomic composition and vertical distribution of main taxa of meiobenthos in the Istanbul Strait’s (Bosporus) outlet area of the Black Sea along the transition from oxic to anoxic conditions, where the sinking water is in contact with the bottom.  Nine stations were carried out in the Istanbul Strait’s outlet area of the Black Sea during 9th–21st November 2009 at the R/V ‘Arar’ cruise from the Istanbul University. The abundance and vertical distribution of main taxa of Protozoa (Ciliophora, Gromida and Foraminifera) and Metazoa (Nematoda, Polychaeta and Harpacticoida) on the Black Sea shelf and the upper slope area (75–300 m depth water) were studied. Meiobenthos was present at all investigated depths and included 21 taxa. Gromiids, hard-shell foraminifera and polychaetes were found at depths between 75–250 m, Ciliophora, soft-shelled foraminifera and nematodes were found at depths between 75–300m. Our data suggest that some benthic eukaryotes (protozoa and metazoa) can tolerate anoxic and sulfidic conditions of the Black Sea.

Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh kemampuan klasifikasi siswa yang kurang dalam mata pelajaran IPA. Kemampuan klasifikasi merupakan salah satu keterampilan dalam keterampilan proses sains. Hal ini disebabkan rendahnya minat siswa dalam belajar sains. Metode pembelajaran klasik juga mempengaruhi motivasi belajar siswa, anggapan bahwa pelajaran IPA sulit belum bisa dihilangkan dalam pemikiran siswa. Untuk mengatasi permasalahan tersebut, digunakan pendekatan Pembelajaran Aktif, Inovatif, Lingkungan, Kreatif, Efektif dan Menyenangkan (PAILKEM). Tidak hanya guru yang aktif dan kreatif namun siswa juga diharapkan dapat mengembangkan potensi yang dimiliki. Tujuan utama dalam penelitian ini adalah ingin mengetahui pengaruh Pendekatan PAILKEM terhadap perbedaan peningkatan kemampuan mengklasifikasi siswa pada pokok bahasan Pesawat Sederhana dan ingin mengetahui respon siswa yang belajar dengan Pendekatan PAILKEM. Jenis penelitian ini yaitu penelitian eksperimen dengan desain Pretest and Postest Group Desain. Lokasi penelitian di SDN Karangampel Kidul II Kec.Karangampel Kab.Indramayu. Subjek penelitian ini siswa kelas Va dan Vb dengan masing – masing jumlah siswa 22 orang.

Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa terdapat peningkatan yang signifikan pada kemampuan mengklasifikasi siswa kelas Va, sedangkan peningkatan kemampuan klasifikasi siswa kelas Vb tidak signifikan dan masih ada siswa yang belum memenuhi standar KKM mata pelajaran IPA. Berdasarkan analisis Uji Mann Whitney untuk mengetahui perbedaan skor rata – rata pretes dan postes pada kedua kelas didapatkan nilai Z=-2,5999 dan Asymp.Sig.(2-tailed) 0,009 yang lebih kecil dari nilai ttabel yaitu 0,05.

Kesimpulan berdasarkan hasil uji hipotesis tersebut yaitu tolak Ho karena nilai sig. < 0,05 dan terima Ha yang berbunyi : Pendekatan PAILKEM memiliki pengaruh dalam meningkatkan kemampuan mengklasifikasi siswa kelas V SDN Karangampel Kidul II dalam mata pelajaran IPA pada pokok bahasan Pesawat Sederhana.

BABAD DARMAYU: PEMBERONTAKAN BAGUS RANGIN DI INDRAMAYU PADA AWAL ABAD KE-19
Authors: NURHATA
Published: December 2020

Dengan mendasarkan pada naskah Babad Darmayu, artikel ini berusaha menguraikan sejarah pemberontakan Bagus Rangin di Indramayu pada awal abad ke-19. Konflik intern di tubuh keluarga dalem (bupati) Indramayu, yang melibatkan pemerintah Hindia Belanda menjadi titik awal bagi intervensi langsung Batavia atas Indramayu. Pada saat yang bersamaan, pemberontakan meletup di berbagai tempat. Penyebabnya adalah penjualan tanah penduduk kepada orang Cina.

Kehadiran tentara Batavia di Indramayu hanya memperbesar aksi massa pemberontakan, alih-alih meredam. Bagus Rangin memegang peranan penting dalam melancarkan gerakan itu. Pasukan Dalem Raden Semangun Singalodraka tidak sanggup menghentikan amuk massa pemberontak yang terus membesar. Pemberontakan baru berhenti setelah tentara Hindia Belanda, pasukan dalem Indramayu, dan orang Cina bergabung melakukan penumpasan.
