Indonesia has 26,000 species of orchids that are very potential and profitable. Grammatophllum stapeliiflorum is an orchid species that is increasingly difficult to find in its natural habitat. The addition of foliar fertilizer containing macro and micro nutrients can increase plant growth. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of foliar fertilizer type, concentration and the combination of the two factors on the growth of the orchid protocorm G. stapeliiflorum. This study used a factorial completely randomized design with two research factors, namely the type of foliar fertilizer with 2 treatment levels, B1 = Gandasil-D and B2 = Growmore. The second factor, fertilizer concentration with 4 treatment levels, namely A0 = control (without foliar fertilizer), A1 = 1 g/L, A2 = 2 g/L, and A3 = 3 g/L. This study consisted of 8 treatment combinations which were repeated 4 times, resulting in 32 experimental units. The parameters observed were the percentage of live explants, the percentage of browning, and the percentage of protocorms growth stages. Data were analyzed by Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and continued with Duncan's Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at a 5% level. These results indicated that the application of foliar fertilizers with Gandasil-D and Growmore affects the percentage of live explants and protocorm growth phases and also increase the percentage browning until of 32,5%. Gandasil-D is better for protocorm growth from globular to torpedo. The control is better for forming shoot of 22,5% compared to the use of foliar fertilizer.

Published: March 2024

Biochar with a high organic matter composition is considered to be an ameliorant for Ultisol. Providing biochar as an ameliorant needs to be studied because it will cause an increase in micronutrients, most of which are excessive in Ultisol. This study aims to determine the effect of several levels of biochar dosage from corn cob as a base material on changes in micronutrients in Ultisol soil. This research was conducted in a greenhouse and in the Laboratory of Agrostology, Feed Industry and Soil Science, State Islamic University of Sultan Syarif Kasim Riau. Experiments with several doses of biochar as treatment, e.g., 0%, 5%, 10%, and 15% of the composition of the growing media were arranged in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with six replications. The parameters observed were the micronutrient content of Boron (B), Copper (Cu), Zinc (Zn), Iron (Fe) and Aluminum (Al). The experimental results showed that giving corn cob biochar with doses of 0.5%, 10% and 15% did not significantly change the levels of B, Cu and Zn Ultisol. Biochar at a dose of 10% significantly increased the soil Zn content and decreased Al-dd Ultisol solubility.

ENHANCING SOCIAL CONNECTION AND SITTING SKILLS IN CHILDREN WITH AUTISM
Authors: Hunanyan Nelly
Published: March 2024

The commented issue is intended for all specialists carrying out special pedagogical work, and especially speech therapists, who during their speech therapy classes often deal with hyperactivity and negative behaviors: aggression, self-aggression, as well as self-restrained children and adolescents.

The research of the presented phenomena and the search for coping solutions by the speech therapist may seem unacceptable to some specialists because the work carried out on overcoming aggressive manifestations, and the rejection of any proposed method of communication are considered the subject and object of the study of psychologists. However, the unprecedented frequency of these phenomena during speech therapy classes allows us to address the researched phenomena from a speech therapy perspective as well, because aggressive manifestations and especially disobedience to the specialist and rejection of all possible forms of contact can be an obstacle to speech therapy intervention with children and adolescents with autism syndrome.

The application of the necessary steps for the formation of emotional contact during the speech therapy classes presented in the article, as well as the creation of special conditions, document their unique role in terms of the effective implementation of speech therapy classes through experimental research.
THE FUNDAMENTAL ISSUE OF CONTINUING EDUCATION IN SPEECH THERAPY
Authors: Kalfayan Ashekian Taline
Published: March 2024

Studies in medicine and sciences are constantly changing with the advancement of research and new discoveries. Continuing education in a field such as speech pathology is crucial for this reason. Most developed countries, like the United States of America and countries in Europe, make education after graduation mandatory and enforce restrictions on licenses in order to encourage people to renew them. Armenia, however, does not. For example, The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) requires all certificate holders (CCC-A and CCC-SLP) to maintain their ASHA Certificates of Clinical Competence and their CCC-SLP by taking additional courses every few years. Countries outside of the United States, such as Canada and Australia, have similar requirements of completing extra hours of practice and education in order to maintain the speech-language pathologist license. 

Armenia also does not have a higher board or association that legally monitors and audits speech pathologists after graduation, but they should work to establish one in order to encourage and enforce speech pathologists to complete the requirements necessary to continue their practice. Armenia is trying to modernize and change the medical education system in order to advance their professional development and allow for the international mobility of healthcare workers, but they should also work to set requirements like these for the speech therapy field in Armenia. Continuing professional development allows for cardinal information that might have been forgotten over the years after graduating or receiving a license to be reviewed and recollected. With the introduction of new technologies and methods, speech pathologists need to be informed of the new ways of practice through their continuing education requirements. Speech pathologists in Armenia can use the opportunity of continuing education to learn how to use new methods such as Armav and incorporate them into their own practices.
Mengusung Politik Damai Abdurrahman Wahid dalam Mengatasi Eskalasi Konflik Kelompok Kriminal Bersenjata dengan Tentara Nasional Indonesia di Papua
Authors: Letsoin Yetva Softiming , Baunsele Oktovianus Robertus , Taroreh Tomy
Published: March 2024

This paper intends to reflect philosophically as well as to promote the need for a peaceful politics in resolving the conflict of the Armed Criminal Group (KKB) in Papua. This elaboration is reviewed based on Wahid's words and political legacy. The methodology used is the analysis of the text through critical reading that listens to the understanding and concept of peaceful politics according to the spark of Wahid's thought. The author assumes that the prolonged conflict that occurs in Papua, namely the conflict stirred up by the KKB, is one of the biggest threats to the integrity of the Republic of Indonesia. The Indonesian government's decision to upgrade the KKB's status as a terrorist group presupposes the deployment of security forces to hunt down KKB members. However, this has not been the right solution, because in fact the conflict continues to this day. Therefore, the government needs to promote appropriate and relevant solutions so that the disintegration of the nation does not occur. The author finds that humanism and Wahid's ideas about the politics of peace that adhere to the principles of equality and liberation can stem various social and political problems, especially the escalation of conflict in Papua.

Sedangkan struktur pelaksana program RTLH melalui kerjasama yang dilakukan oleh Dinas Sosial bersama dengan Lurah dan RT/RW terlaksana dengan cukup baik. Namun penulis menyarankan Dinas Sosial Kabupaten Banjar melakukan komunikasi secara langsung terhadap masyarakat melalui sosialisasi bantuan program RTLH, menambah jumlah pegawai yang secara khusus melakukan pendataan dan pengawasan di dalam pelaksanaan program RTLH.

Aiming to address power consumption issues of various equipment in metro stations and the inefficiency of peak shaving and valley filling in the power supply system, this study presents an economic optimization scheduling method for the multi-modal “source-network-load-storage” system in metro stations. The proposed method, called the Improved Gray Wolf Optimization Algorithm (IGWO), utilizes objective evaluation criteria to achieve economic optimization. First, construct a mathematical model of the “sourcenetwork- load-storage” joint system with the metro station at its core. This model should consider the electricity consumption within the station. Secondly, a two-layer optimal scheduling model is established, with the upper model aiming to optimize peak elimination and valley filling, and the lower model aiming to minimize electricity consumption costs within a scheduling cycle. Finally, this paper introduces the IGWO optimization approach, which utilizes meta-models and the Improved Gray Wolf Optimization Algorithm to address the nonlinearity and computational complexity of the two-layer model. The analysis shows that the proposed model and algorithm can improve the solution speed and minimize the cost of electricity used by about 5.5% to 8.7% on the one hand, and on the other hand, it improves the solution accuracy, and at the same time effectively realizes the peak shaving and valley filling, which provides a proof of the effectiveness and feasibility of the new method.

Listeria monocytogenes is a ubiquitous microorganism that is isolated from a variety of sources such as soil, water, decaying vegetation, sewage, animal feeds, silage, farm environments and food-processing environments. This study aimed to determine the prevalence, serogroups, biofilm formation, virulence factor genes, and genetic relationships of L. monocytogenes strains isolated from beef meat and meat contact surfaces obtained from a slaughterhouse in Burdur, Turkey. In this study, a total of 179 beef meat and meat contact surface samples were analyzed for the presence of L. monocytogenes by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Out of a total of 179 beef meat and meat contact surface samples, 83 (46.37%) were found to be contaminated with L. monocytogenes, with the highest incidence (53.01%) occurring in beef meat. In the present study, most of the isolated strains belonged to serogroups IIB and IVB (lineage I). The L. monocytogenes strain also contained monoA-B, prfA, plcA, plcB, mpl, hlyA, actA, gtcA, dltA, Fri, flaA, InlA, InlC, InlJ, and iap genes. Biofilm formation was not determined in the tested samples at pH 5.5 and different temperatures (4°C, 10°C, 25°C, and 37°C). However, strong biofilm formation was observed in 6.45% (2/31) of the strains at pH 7.0 after 48 h incubation at 37°C, and in 3.22% (1/31) of the strains at pH 7.0 after 48 h incubation at 4°C and 10°C. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) results showed that L. monocytogenes isolates were clonally related, and cross-contamination was present. In addition, PFGE results also revealed that AscI had more distinguishing power than the ApaI restriction enzyme. These results indicate that L. monocytogenes detected from meat and meat contact surfaces in the slaughterhouse pose a potential risk to public health.

Avian gastric yeast ( Macrorhabdus ornithogaster) is a microorganism that infects aviary birds worldwide, both captive and wild. A total number of 352 birds, belonging to 18 avian species, were examined from 2019 to 2022 for M. ornithogaster, using fecal smears of live birds or cytological samples of the proventriculus taken at necropsy. These cytological samples were taken from birds that died from different causes. Some of the birds exhibited symptoms such as lethargy, regurgitation, weight loss and anorexia. Faecal samples were collected from all the birds and analysed for gastric yeast using a direct smear and Gram-staining method. The microorganism was diagnosed most frequently in budgerigars (55.5%), the African gray parrot (33.3%), and nymphs (34.3%). The prevalence of M. ornithogaster in canaries was 10%. The infection was detected in 31% of the examined birds, which shows that the occurrence of M. ornithogaster in exotic birds is common. No clinical signs were observed in the vast majority of birds that tested positive for gastric yeast.

This study aimed to develop an equine-derived hyperimmune serum against SARS-CoV-2 and evaluate its efficacy as a potential immunotherapy tool for the treatment of known and potential variants of COVID-19 in preclinical trials. The novelty of this study is the whole virus and ALUM gel adjuvant formula. The horses were immunized using a whole inactivated SARS-CoV-2 antigen, and the final purified hyperimmune serum showed high plaque reduction neutralization (PRNT 50) neutralizing titers. The efficacy of the hyperimmune serum was evaluated histopathologically and biochemically in the lungs, hearts, and serum of K18 hACE2 transgenic mice (n=45), which is an accepted model organism for SARS-CoV-2 studies and was challenged with live SARS-CoV-2. Serum treatment improved the general condition, resulting in lower levels of proinflammatory cytokines in the blood plasma, as well as reduced viral RNA titers in the lungs and hearts. Additionally, it reduced oxidative stress significantly and lessened the severity of interstitial pneumonia in the lungs when compared to infected positive controls. The study concluded that equine-derived anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies could be used for COVID-19 prevention and treatment, especially in the early stages of the disease and in combination with antiviral drugs and vaccines. This treatment will benefit special patient populations such as immunocompromised individuals, as specific antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 can neutralize the virus before it enters host cells. The rapid and cost-effective production of the serum allows for its availability during the acute phase of the disease, making it a critical intervention in preventing the spread of the disease and saving lives in new variants where a vaccine is not yet developed.

Arsenic is an important metalloid that can cause poisoning in humans and domestic animals. Exposure to arsenic causes cell damage, increasing the production of reactive oxygen species. Chitosan is a biopolymer obtained by deacetylation of chitin with antioxidant and metal ion chelating properties. In this study, the protective effect of chitosan on arsenic-induced nephrotoxicity and oxidative damage was investigated. 32 male Wistar-albino rats were divided into 4 groups of 8 rats each as control group (C), chitosan group (CS group), arsenic group (AS group), and arsenic+chitosan group (AS+CS group). The C group was given distilled water by oral gavage, the AS group was given 100 ppm/day Na-arsenite ad libitum with drinking water, the CS group was given 200 mg/kg/day chitosan dissolved in saline by oral gavage, the AS+CS group was given 100 ppm/day Na-arsenite ad libitum with drinking water and 200 mg/kg/day chitosan dissolved in saline by oral gavage for 30 days. At the end of the 30-day experimental period, 90 mg/kg ketamine was administered intraperitoneally to all rats, and blood samples and kidney tissues were collected. Urea, uric acid, creatinine, P, Mg, K, Ca, Na, Cystatin C (CYS-C), Neutrophil Gelatinase Associated Lipocalin (NGAL) and Kidney Injury Molecule 1 (KIM-1) levels were measured in serum samples. Malondialdehyde (MDA), Glutathione (GSH), Catalase (CAT) and Superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels in the supernatant obtained from kidney tissue were analyzed by ELISA method. Compared with AS group, uric acid and creatinine levels of the AS+CS group were significantly decreased (p<0.001), urea, KIM-1, CYS-C, NGAL, and MDA levels were numerically decreased and CAT, GSH, and SOD levels were numerically increased (p>0.05). In conclusion, based on both biochemical and histopathological-immunohistochemical- immunofluorescence findings, it can be concluded that chitosan attenuates kidney injury and protects the kidney.
