Authors: Vasconcelos Isadora Ferreira Morais de , Arantes Filho Welington , Silva João Divino dos Santos
Published: September 2021

Um dos maiores problemas dos municípios brasileiros atualmente é o manejo dos resíduos sólidos, o que traz a tona a crescente busca por alternativas economicamente viáveis de reciclagem e reutilização dos resíduos resultantes das diversas atividades humanas. A compostagem é uma técnica que utiliza resíduos orgânicos em geral para a produção de um composto capaz de melhorar as características físicas e químicas do solo. O presente trabalho visa analisar se a compostagem é uma alternativa que pode ser utilizada na diminuição da quantidade de resíduos que são encaminhados para o aterro no município de Itapagipe-MG, visto que grande parte dos resíduos produzidos no município são de origem domiciliar e orgânica. Com o método Quali-quantitativo e Analise bibliográfica, conclui-se que a compostagem é sim uma alternativa viável para o município de Itapagipe-MG, o município já possui uma Usina de Tratamento de resíduos e vem investindo na gestão de resíduos. É necessário ainda que a Usina funcione com capacidade total, pois, atualmente é realizada apenas a separação dos resíduos, e que a população participe ativamente do processo porque os resíduos orgânicos precisam ser separados em sua origem, ou seja, os domicílios.

Investigation of a Paternal-Mediated Preeclampsia-Like Pregnancy Phenotype Mouse Model
Authors: Burnette Lauren , Gemmel Mary , Gallaher Marcia , Powers Robert
Published: September 2021

Preeclampsia, a pregnancy specific syndrome characterized by new onset hypertension and proteinuria, is a leading cause of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. While no animal model perfectly mimics the human syndrome, breeding C1q-/- (male) to C57 (female) mice results in a preeclampsia-like pregnancy including pregnancy-specific hypertension, vascular dysfunction and altering placental phenotype. As the placental genotype is primarily paternally driven, lack of paternal C1q is likely driving this preeclampsia-like phenotype. However, more work is needed to investigate whether a lack of maternal C1q also contributes to this preeclampsia-like phenotype. The aim of this study was to investigate the pregnancy phenotype of genetic control (C1q-/- female bred to C57 male) mice. Blood pressure was monitored during pregnancy and vascular function assessed during late pregnancy (gestation day 17.5) in genetic control females. These data were compared to similar data obtained from control (C57 male bred to C57 female) and preeclampsia-like (C1q-/- male bred to C57 female) pregnant mice. Genetic control blood pressure and vascular function data were similar to that of the control pregnancy group, indicating no significant effect of maternal C1q deficiency on the “preeclampsia-like” pregnancy phenotype. As understanding preeclampsia and its effect on women’s health is critical, the work presented is important to confirm the C1q-/- x C57 mouse model as a useful model for studying this syndrome further.
Black Lives Matter, COVID-19, and Political Opportunities:
Authors: Turillo Daniel
Published: September 2021

In the summer of 2020, while mired in the COVID-19 pandemic, the United States experienced an unprecedentedly massive wave of protests led by the Black Lives Matter movement. Given the novelty of this upswell and the lack of a clear precedent thereof, there does not yet exist much scholarly analysis into why and how this movement expanded as significantly as it did or what developmental routes it may take as in the future. My research seeks to remedy this gap by employing the political process theory of social movement activity to interpret how the COVID pandemic increased opportunities for insurgent activity, how Black Lives Matter was in a prime position to take advantage of those opportunities, and how the movement can and should approach its future development to retain the support and leverage it accumulated during the 2020 protests. Through informal qualitative analysis rooted in the political process model, I suggest that COVID led to greater public recognition of institutional maladies in the United States, which Black Lives Matter was able to channel toward protest activity thanks to the low-cost, high-reward membership system inherent in its non-hierarchical structure and tactful use of social media. I then briefly consider different developmental paths that Black Lives Matter may take and assert that carefully implemented attempts at formalization will allow the movement to retain its organizing potential regardless of any volatile external opportunities.
A study and Description of the Femtocells Wireless Communication Networks
Authors: Alwafie Fathi , Ukasha Ali , Abujnah Nabeil A.
Published: September 2021

In this paper the femtocell base station called as Femtocell Access Point (FAP) was descriped and studied. The femtocell (FAP) is fully user deployed and hence reduces the infrastructure, maintenance and operational cost of the operator while at the same time providing good Quality of Service (QoS) to the end user and high network capacity gains. The surest way to increase the system capacity and data rates can be achieved efficiently in a wireless system by getting the transmitter and receiver closer to each other. In a network with nomadic users, this inevitably involves deploying more infrastructure, typically in the form of microcells, hotspots, distributed antennas, or relays. Femtocells deployed in the macrocell significantly improve the indoor coverage and provide better user experience.

In this paper the four indoor propagation path loss models with simulated data for different scenarios at 2 GHz are presented In additions the Simulation were carried out in two different scenarios LOS and NLOS for max 50m femtocell and max 100m  macrocell network. The simulation results was implemented using Matlab code software.

The service life of transformers and, as a consequence, of the electric power systems depends largely on the chemical composition and electrical insulating properties of the oil. In this regard, much attention is paid to the control of physical and chemical indicators and operational properties of transformer oils. The aim of this work is to determine the important diagnostic parameters such as the acid number and the tangent of the dielectric loss angle of the transformer oil based on the measured coordinates of the color of the transformer oil. This goal is achieved by the study of the coordinates of the transformer oils chromaticity. For this purpose, a white light source is used, which is a LED with a pumping line of 450 nm and a maximum radiation in the region of 550-560 nm, with radiation in the range from 400 to 800 nm. Sensors 1, 2, 3 allow determining the chromaticity coordinates of the measured source R, G, B (red, green, blue), due to several receivers having spectral characteristics of sensitivity in the corresponding region of the visible spectrum. The most significant result of the work was the establishment of correlations between the TM chromaticity coordinatesб their acid number and the tangent of the dielectric loss angle of TM. The significance of the results obtained was that the acid number and the tangent of the dielectric loss angle of the transformer oil could be determined by the chromaticity coordinates, and hence, by the color of the oil.

Microsurgical decompression of the supraorbital nerve in the treatment of chronic neuropathic pain in the frontal-temporal area
Authors: Baytinger A. V. , Isaeva N. V.
Published: September 2021

Chronic headache is common. One of the causes of frontal-temporal pain may be compression of sensory nerves from the trigeminal nerve system, for example, the supraorbital nerve. Our study involved 12 women with symptoms of supraorbital nerve neuralgia resistant to drug correction. He underwent microsurgical decompression of the supraorbital nerve. The results of the operation were assessed by the change in the level of neuropathic pain using the PainDetect questionnaire and the degree of psychosocial maladjustment of the patient according to the MIDAS questionnaire, before and after the operation. The data obtained indicate a significant decrease in the level of neuropathic pain in patients 1 month after surgery and a significant minimization of the effect of headache on the quality of life in patients 3 months after surgery. Two out of 12 women did not notice any improvement, which required repeated delayed revision and extended proximal decompression of the supraorbital nerve with dissection of m. corrugator supercilii fibers. After the myotomy, pain regression was achieved and the patients noted that they were satisfied with the result.

Den anklagade tittaren. Strategiskt publiktilltal i satiriska anklagelser
Authors: Bruhn Tommy , Doona Joanna
Published: September 2021

Public accusations often lead to controversy. Accusations have been studied as causing certain types of defense, as well as for how accusing parties persuade audiences of guilt, and amplify an act’s offensiveness. We investigate a satire programme as a strategic act, with a specific focus on how its accusatory rhetorical structure strategically invites certain responses, and counteracts others. We show how a segment in the news satire programme ‘Swedish News’ constructed a complex accusation against the Swedish private school queue system, and against the character of the educated middle class who tend to use it. The segment’s structure places the accused middle class as an addressed audience in three different subject positions, wherein the relationship between them motivates penance rather than defense. The analysis shows how a changing positioning of the same group as judge, victim and accused can perform certain functions in accusatory speech, indicating roads to redemption and opening up for possibilities of reconciliation

Published: August 2021

The objective of this study was to determine the impact of internal marketing on the organizational commitment of employees in the retail sector. The method used was a quantitative correlational approach, at an explanatory level with a non-experimental design. The study sample consisted of 392 workers belonging to the retail sector. The results generated by structural equations show that specific relationships have p < 0.05, i.e. all the proposed hypotheses are accepted in the proposed correlation between internal marketing and the three types of organizational commitment, among them the affective commitment, which generates emotional ties between the employee and the organization, feeling proud to remain in the same linking the values and objectives of the same as their own goals, the commitment of permanence, which implies the risks involved in separating from the organization as well as the loss of all the benefits obtained and how these would be difficult to obtain if the employee were to leave the organization. Finally, the normative commitment, which arises when the employee perceives some kind of opportunity or special benefit in the organization, thus generating a bond of moral reciprocity, i.e. a bond of loyalty. The conclusion of the study is that the use of internal marketing for personnel selection is a fundamental tool for achieving acceptable levels of the three types of commitment mentioned above. This ensures the efficiency of the company both internally and externally, with long-term results.

Published: August 2021

This study examines the effect of the performance of traders in the partnership relationship between the government, the private sector, and the community which is very necessary to build a food supply chain network in order to provide stimulation for the supporting factors and reduce the inhibiting factors for the success of the merchant's business, increase profits, and maintain food availability in traditional markets. This research was conducted at Andir Market, Bandung City, Indonesia. The research sample consisted of 100 Andir market traders. The research method used was a quantitative method with survey research that uses a questionnaire as the main instrument in data collection. The results of the analysis and discussion of the researchers have identified factors that can be used to strengthen the food supply chain network in the Public-Private-Community Partnership in traditional markets, namely management, empowerment, physical market conditions, and competitive strategies. Simultaneously, the four traders' performance factors have a significant effect on the food supply chain network with an R-square value of 0.658 (65.8%) with tcount greater than 1.96 or (3.817> 1.96). This means that if the changes that occur are good in the performance of traders, the food supply chain network in traditional markets will also be good, while the remaining 0.342 (34.2%) is explained by factors other than these variables. The expected implication is that the success of the supply chain network that is built due to strong interactions within the Public-Private-Community Partnership and other supply chain actors is able to face challenges during and after the pandemic. So that the quality of traditional market products, especially products that are quickly damaged or rotten, can be superior and well guaranteed for the food needs of people throughout Indonesia.

Published: August 2021

This study aims empirically to analyze mitigation strategies for operational supply risk among halal food manufacturers in Malaysia. A survey of 369 halal food manufacturers is used to test a research model that proposes a relationship between operational supply risk and risk consequences as well as the mediating role of risk mitigation strategies. Structural equation modeling reveals that in the absence of a risk mitigation strategy (behavior-based management, buffer-based management, and traceability-based management), operational risk consequences are significantly influenced by operational supply risk. The analysis also showed the mitigation strategies reduce risk events by its interaction between operational supply risk and risk consequences. This study shows significant data about the management of halal food manufacturing. Due to the limitations of this survey, further study is necessary to analyze how other halal's sectors manage their supply chain risk management.
Teacher Agency Through Collaborative Expertise-building
Authors:   University College London, Tupas Ruanni
Published: August 2021

Drawing on teacher agentive acts in the process of collaborative expertise-building in selects tertiary institutions in Southeast Asia, this paper maps out the conceptual configurations of teacher agency. In doing so, it avoids both the overly deterministic and individualistic views of agency by locating it within structuring conditions where individual acts are also mobilized. However, while most socially constructive views of agency focus on situated and institutional constraints of agency, this paper conceptualizes teacher agency in its broadest possible sense as historical, cultural and ideological phenomenon, arguing that agentive acts cannot merely be seen as either working for or against educational reform and transformation; rather teachers must take control of the process of knowledge production because it is by doing so that teachers can take ownership over their everyday classroom tactics and practices. Teacher agency in this sense is not simply a capacity to act but, in fact, an accomplishment of acts of producing knowledge for one’s professional practice.
Teacher Agency as Technologies of the Self and as Actionality: Implications for ELT Micro-Centric Policy Making
Authors:   Atma Jaya Catholic University of Indonesia, Sugiharto Setiono
Published: August 2021

This article critically examines the notion of teacher agency in light of two important conceptual frameworks: technologies of the self and transitionalist-actionistic, or conduct pragmatism. Using the former framework, teacher agency was analyzed in terms of its inherent status and dynamic flux within one’s self, while using the latter it was scrutinized for its transitional-actionistic nature triggered by one’s action or conduct. The article then argues that viewing teacher agency from these two vantage points can contribute to our understanding of the crucial role a teacher can play in creating a micro-centric policy of teaching and learning English in a specific locality, as well as of the enactment of this policy by individual teachers in a classroom setting. Implications for this critical examination of teacher agency include the import of the (re)activation of teacher agency, and its enactment both in the policy-making processes and in the teaching practices.

Relevansi Nilai Gotong Royong dalam Ajaran Pangestu sebagai Upaya Memerangi Covid 19
Authors: Anas Faisal
Published: September 2021

Since the beginning of Covid-19 pandemicin Indonesia, the number of sufferers has always increased. Even by the beginning of 2021 the number has reached one million people. The government’s efforts to prevent the spread of this virus apparently through the application of health protocols seemed not to be effective. This is partly related to the egoistic behavior of the people in doing the health protocols in their daily life. In fact, the government stressed the importance of working together in the fight against Covid-19. Based on this, the author seeks to introduce the values of mutual cooperation contained in Pangestu as one of the traditional beliefs in Indonesia to people affected by Covid-19.Data were collected from the book of Pangestu, books, and any other literature about teaching of mutual cooperation. The results show that some of these values include the importance of willingly sacrificing to save others. Furthermore, the other value is togetherness and unity to obey the rules of each individual to achieve mutual salvation. By applying these values efforts to prevent the spread of Covid 19 will certainly be much more effective.

Association Between Hopelessness And Suicidal Ideation In Iranian Medical Students: A Cross-Sectional Study
Authors: Hossein Sadeghian Mohammad , Etesam Farnaz , Nakhostin-Ansari Amin , Akbarpour Samaneh , Akhlaghi Mitra
Published: September 2021

Background and Objectives

There are limited studies regarding suicidal ideation among Iranian medical students. We aimed to evaluate the prevalence of suicidal ideation and its association with hopelessness among Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TUMS) medical students.

Methods

We designed a cross-sectional study conducted in TUMS in 2018. We developed a questionnaire consisting of three parts; the Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS), four questions regarding suicidal ideation, and questions regarding demographic characteristics. We used the available sampling technique and sent the questionnaire to 517 medical students of TUMS.

Results

In total, 224 medical students completed and sent back the questionnaire (response rate=43.32%). Participants’ mean age was 22.68 (SD=3.38) years, and 140 participants (62.5%) were female. One hundred seven students (47.76%) had mild, 58 (25.89%) had moderate, and 13 (5.8%) had severe hopelessness. Males, senior students, and dissatisfied students with their academic performance experienced more severe hopelessness (P<0.05). Thirty-six participants (16.07%) had suicidal ideation. After adjusting for age, gender, marital status, and student’s satisfaction with their academic performance, BHS total score was independently associated with suicidal ideation (OR=1.29, 95% CI=1.14-1.46, P<0.0001)

Conclusion

The prevalence of suicidal ideation and hopelessness is relatively high among Iranian medical students. Students with more severe hopelessness are at higher risk of suicidal ideation, and evaluating hopelessness among medical students can be used to screen medical students at risk of suicidal ideation.

Published: September 2021

Agricultural extension service quality is a key to sustainable development and enhances the efficiency of government resources for farmers. This paper assessed farmer's satisfaction with the quality of agricultural extension services in Ninh Phuoc district, Ninh Thuan province. Major analytical tools included: exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modeling (SEM). The data were collected by direct interviews with 320 farmers participating on the extension. The analysis results showed that the level of satisfaction of the farmers was significantly influenced by the quality of the agricultural extension service and the agricultural extension service quality was influenced by factors such as farmers’ adoption of technological innovations in agriculture, the extension staff's clear presentation and understandable instructions to farmers, experienced trainers, exciting and pleasant discussions and field trip activities tailored to the needs of farmers
Efficacy of florfenicol for control of mortality associated with Flavobacterium columnare in tilapia
Authors: Nguyen Thinh H.
Published: September 2021

The efficacy of florfenicol for control of mortality associated with Flavobacterium columnare was studied in tilapia. F. columnare T3-8/10 strain used for infection was tested for virulence by bath challenge to tilapia (body weight: BW 14 - 16 g) and antimicrobial sensitivity test. The results showed LD50 of this bacterial strain was 4.8×104 CFU/mL and it was sensitive to florfenicol. Experiment for control mortality caused by the bacterium in tilapia (BW 18 - 20 g) was designed with four treatments including negative control (uninfected fish), positive control, NT10 and NT15 (infected with LD50). Just after infection, fish in positive control, NT10 and NT15 treatments were treated with florfenicol at doses of 0, 10 and 15 mg/kg BW/day for 10 days, respectively, by feeding fish with medicated feed. Mortality of fish in positive control treatment after 14 days of infection was 54.0 ± 5.47% and statistically different in comparison with those in negative control, NT10 and NT15 treatments were 0.0, 3.0 ± 4.72 and 2.60 ± 2.51%, respectively (P < 0.05). Fish in NT10 and NT15 treatments were sampled for testing florfenicol residue in the flesh at day 1, 16, 20 and 24 after treatment. The results showed florfenicol residue levels in the flesh of sampled fish at all testing timepoints were significantly lower in comparison with the safe concentration lower than 1000 ppb regulated by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development of Vietnam.
Extraction, purification and application of hydrolysed collagen from fish skin
Authors: Nguyen Binh C.
Published: September 2021

Collagen hydrolysate is a mixture of peptides which have molecular weight less than 20 kDa and are obtained from enzymatic hydrolysis of collagen or gelatin. It has extraordinary properties and bioactivities compared to collagen and gelatin, such as antioxidant, anti-freezing, anti-microbial, ultraviolet ray prevention, and stimulator for the healing hormones of arthritis. Thus, collagen hydrolysate is widely used in functional foods, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. The procedure to produce hydrolysate collagen from fish skin begins with the process of removing non-collagen substances, then enzymatic hydrolysis, and finally purification and fragmentation of collagen hydrolysate. The removal of non-collagen agents usually employs sodium hydroxide. Depending on the chemical composition of the fish skin, sodium hydroxide concentration ranges from 0.05 M to 0.1 M, the ratio of fish skin weight to sodium hydroxide solution is 1:10 (w/v) and soaking time is from 6 to 24 hours. Currently, many studies use protease enzymes to hydrolyze collagen. Depending on the type and source of enzyme, the collagen hydrolysate products have different degrees of hydrolysis (DH). Each type of enzyme needs to be performed at its optimum catalytic conditions such as pH, enzyme/substrate (E/S) ratio, hydrolysis temperature, hydrolysis time to achieve maximum DH and desired molecular weight of the obtained peptides. For rapid and effective separation of the collagen fragments, ultrafiltration or gel filtration chromatography are usually used.
