Authors: Skrzypczyńska Joanna
Published: March 2024

Instrumenty ochrony rynku, w tym przede wszystkim postępowanie antydumpingowe, są aktualnie jednym z najważniejszych środków protekcji handlowej. Stosowanie tych instrumentów umożliwia UE reagowanie na nieuczciwe zachowania partnerów handlowych. Polityka handlowa UE uwzględniania nie tylko interesy państw członkowskich UE, ale zobowiązania wynikające z członkostwa UE w Światowej Organizacji Handlu. Celem artykułu jest analiza przyczyn, zakresu i efektów reformy unijnych instrumentów ochrony rynku ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem jej wpływu na postępowania antydumpingowe wobec Chin.

Adeno‐associated virus‐based approach for genetic modification of cardiac fibroblasts in adult rat hearts
Authors: Nieto Bridget , Cypress Michael W. , Jhun Bong Sook , O‐Uchi Jin
Published: March 2024

Cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) are an attractive target for reducing pathological cardiac remodeling, and understanding the underlying mechanisms of these processes is the key to develop successful therapies for treating the pressure‐overloaded heart. CF‐specific knockout (KO) mouse lines with a Cre recombinase under the control of human TCF21 (hTCF21) promoter and/or an adeno‐associated virus serotype 9 (AAV9)‐hTCF21 system provide a powerful tool for understanding CF biology in vivo. Although a variety of rat disease models are vital for the research of cardiac fibrosis similar to mouse models, there are few rat models that employ cardiac cell‐specific conditional gene modification, which has hindered the development and translational relevance of cardiac disease models. In addition, to date, there are no reports of gene manipulation specifically in rat CFs in vivo. Here, we report a simplified CF‐specific rat transgenic model using an AAV9‐hTCF21 system that achieved a CF‐specific expression of transgene in adult rat hearts. Moreover, we successfully applied this approach to specifically manipulate mitochondrial morphology in quiescent CFs. In summary, this model will allow us to develop fast and simple rat CF‐specific transgenic models for studying cardiovascular diseases in vivo.
KAT2A changes the function of endometrial stromal cells via regulating the succinylation of ENO1
Authors: Zeng Kangkang , Yin Hao
Published: March 2024

Endometriosis is increasingly affecting women worldwide and research is focusing on identifying key targets in its pathogenesis. Changes in succinylation genes regulate the function of this protein and further influence the development of the disease. However, the role of succinylation genes in endometriosis is not clear from current studies. The expression of succinylation genes was determined in ectopic endometrium (EC) and ectopic patients with uterine fibroids (EN) by real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blot. Cell Counting Kit-8, transwell assays, and flow cytometry were used to assess endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion. KAT2A and ENO1 association was detected by qRT-PCR, immunofluorescence, and CoIP. We found that gene and protein levels of KAT2A were significantly increased in the EC group compared to EN group tissues. KAT2A silencing inhibited cell proliferation, migration, and invasion and promoted apoptosis. Western blot results showed that the expression of ENO1 and its succinylation was significantly upregulated in ECSc after KAT2A overexpression. CoIP results showed that KAT2A is positively bound to ENO1. Immunofluorescence also showed co-localized expression of KAT2A with ENO1. Furthermore, ENO1 overexpression reversed the effects of KAT2A silencing on the malignant behavior of ESCs. In summary, we found that succinylation of ENO1 mediated by KAT2A played a role in promoting the progression of endometriosis.

Published: March 2024

The central nervous system is essential for maintaining homeostasis and controlling the body’s physiological functions. However, its biochemical characteristics make it highly vulnerable to oxidative damage, which is a common factor in neurodegenerative diseases like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). ALS is a leading cause of motor neuron disease, characterized by a rapidly progressing and incurable condition. ALS often results in death from respiratory failure within 3–5 years from the onset of the first symptoms, underscoring the urgent need to address this medical challenge. The aim of this study is to present available data supporting the role of oxidative stress in the mechanisms underlying ALS and to discuss potential antioxidant therapies currently in development. These therapies aim to improve the quality of life and life expectancy for patients affected by this devastating disease.
The counting principle makes number words unique
Authors: Ariel Mira , Levshina Natalia
Published: March 2024

Following Ariel (2021. Why it’s hard to construct ad hoc number concepts. In Caterina Mauri, Ilaria Fiorentini, & Eugenio Goria (eds.), Building categories in interaction: Linguistic resources at work, 439–462. Amsterdam: John Benjamins), we argue that number words manifest distinct distributional patterns from open-class lexical items. When modified, open-class words typically take selectors (as in kinda table), which select a subset of their potential denotations (e.g., “nonprototypical table”). They are typically not modified by loosening operators (e.g., approximately), since even if bare, typical lexemes can broaden their interpretation (e.g., table referring to a rock used as a table). Number words, on the other hand, have a single, precise meaning and denotation and cannot take a selector, which would need to select a subset of their (single) denotation (??kinda seven). However, they are often overtly broadened (approximately seven), creating a range of values around N. First, we extend Ariel’s empirical examination to the larger COCA and to Hebrew (HeTenTen). Second, we propose that open-class and number words belong to sparse versus dense lexical domains, respectively, because the former exhibit prototypicality effects, but the latter do not. Third, we further support the contrast between sparse and dense domains by reference to: synchronic word2vec models of sparse and dense lexemes, which testify to their differential distributions, numeral use in noncounting communities, and different renewal rates for the two lexical types.
Emotionally (in)hospitable spaces: reflecting on language teacher–teacher educator collaboration as a source of emotion labor and emotional capital
Authors: Cinaglia Carlo , Montgomery D. Philip , Coss Matthew D.
Published: March 2024

While various aspects of language teachers’ emotional experiences have been gaining attention, including emotion labor and emotional capital, less attention has been placed on the emotional experiences of teacher educators supporting language teachers in emotionally challenging situations. Following calls to examine language teachers’ emotional experiences ecologically and as socially and institutionally shaped, we engaged in collaborative autoethnography to explore how language teacher and teacher educator emotion labor reflects answerability to multiple commitments in the face of external feeling rules. Our findings highlight how language teacher–teacher educator collaboration can mitigate as well as reproduce emotion labor. This study contributes to research on language teacher emotion labor by focusing on the role of the teacher educator in supporting language teacher emotional capital and highlighting the complexity underlying emotion labor and emotional capital as multi-directional. Furthermore, the study illustrates how collaborative autoethnography can generate reflexivity and emotional capital for language teacher educators.
Investigation of 16 × 10 Gbps mode division multiplexed enabled integrated NGPON–FSO architecture under wired-wireless link losses
Authors: Kumari Meet
Published: March 2024

To enhance the transmission capacity for energy consumption and low cost system, mode division multiplexing (MDM) using mode 0 and mode 1 is proposed and investigated. A pair of eight downlink and uplink wavelengths is transmitted by using each MDM mode in an integrated bidirectional next generation passive optical network and free space optics (NGPON–FSO) system at 10 Gbps per channel transmission rate under the impact of FSO–fiber links impairments. Simulation results indicate that received power of −21.2 dBm with 0.2 dB power penalty can be obtained over 1 km FSO and 100 m multimode fiber under unfavourable turbulent effects. The system provides extended FSO link range, and fiber range of 150 km and 600 m respectively at threshold limit of 10−3. Besides, the mathematical analysis depicts the receiver sensitivity and splitter power budget of 42 dBm and 18 dB, respectively, for the proposed system. The system offers finest performance than other pre-existing systems.

AÇÃO EXTENSIONISTA: UMA OPORTUNIDADE DA UNIVERSIDADE COMILITAR AO LADO DE PESSOAS EM VULNERABILIDADE DE GÊNERO
Authors: Medianeira Bolzan Larissa
Published: March 2024

O objetivo deste artigo foi compreender o papel de uma universidade pública extensionista na cocriação de Inovação Social (IS). Considerando que as ações extensionistas sejam orientadas pelo ato Dusseliano de colocar-se “efetiva e praticamente ‘junto’ ao Outro no que tange aos vazios institucionais acerca de problemas socioambientais. Para tanto, o Living Lab (LL) “Mais Juntas” serviu como objeto de análise. O método para desenvolvimento deste trabalho foi a pesquisa-ação. De modo geral, esta pesquisa evidenciou que em ações de extensão a universidade é capaz de orquestrar o processo de cocriação de inovações sociais colocando-se “efetiva e praticamente ‘junto’ ao Outro” (DUSSEL, 2001), uma vez que no Living Lab Mais Juntas, todas ações foram orquestradas pelo projeto unificado com ênfase em extensão “Mais Juntas” da UFPel.É válido destacar ainda que a utilização do método de cocriação Design Sprint, validado neste artigo para utilização na cocriação de inovações sociais, possibilitou a mobilidade de conhecimento e a manutenção da estabilidade da rede, assim como uma comunicação horizontal e a construção do capital relacional entre os atores.

Published: March 2024

O aleitamento materno é recomendado como principal meio de alimentação e prevenção de doenças para o bebê. A amamentação inicia-se no puerpério, que é considerado um período de vulnerabilidade em relação à saúde mental, modificações fisiológicas, hormonais e sociais que ocorrem nesse período na mulher. Portanto, a rede de apoio familiar e profissional é uma importante ferramenta para garantir o acolhimento e o sucesso da amamentação, considerando que a insegurança, estresse e ansiedade são característicos do puerpério, e podem favorecer o desmame precoce. O projeto de extensão interdisciplinar ProAmamenta, composto pelos cursos de Enfermagem e Psicologia, visa promover educação em saúde e acolhimento às puérperas, levando conhecimento, em relação aos benefícios, vantagens e importância da amamentação.Devido à pandemia do vírus COVID-19, o projeto vem atuando de forma remota desde março de 2020. A utilização das plataformas digitais, possibilitou um maior alcance e interação com a comunidade, assim como trouxe a possibilidade de ampliar as discussões sobre a temática por meio da realização de palestras transmitidas ao vivo pelo instagram. Atualmente, o projeto está construindo o seu retorno presencial com o intuito de continuar prestando orientação para as puérperas e seus familiares. O projeto tem contribuído de forma significativa no processo de amamentação de muitas mulheres, principalmente na orientação psicológica e sobre a importância que esta prática possui para todos os envolvidos: mulher, criança, família e comunidade.
Ca2+/Calmodulin-Dependent Protein Kinase II Enhances Retinal Ganglion Cell Survival But Suppresses Axon Regeneration after Optic Nerve Injury

Neuroprotection after injury or in neurodegenerative disease remains a major goal for basic and translational neuroscience. Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), the projection neurons of the eye, degenerate in optic neuropathies after axon injury, and there are no clinical therapies to prevent their loss or restore their connectivity to targets in the brain. Here we demonstrate a profound neuroprotective effect of the exogenous expression of various Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) isoforms in mice. A dramatic increase in RGC survival following the optic nerve trauma was elicited by the expression of constitutively active variants of multiple CaMKII isoforms in RGCs using adeno-associated viral (AAV) vectors across a 100-fold range of AAV dosing in vivo. Despite this neuroprotection, however, short-distance RGC axon sprouting was suppressed by CaMKII, and long-distance axon regeneration elicited by several pro-axon growth treatments was likewise inhibited even as CaMKII further enhanced RGC survival. Notably, in a dose-escalation study, AAV-expressed CaMKII was more potent for axon growth suppression than the promotion of survival. That diffuse overexpression of constitutively active CaMKII strongly promotes RGC survival after axon injury may be clinically valuable for neuroprotection per se. However, the associated strong suppression of the optic nerve axon regeneration demonstrates the need for understanding the intracellular domain- and target-specific CaMKII activities to the development of CaMKII signaling pathway-directed strategies for the treatment of optic neuropathies.
The Politics of Land and Belonging in North Pakistan
Authors: Karrar Hasan H.
Published: March 2024

Pakistan’s mountainous north borders China. Deepening bilateral ties, together with increasing investments from within Pakistan, have amplified local anxiety over loss of control over resources. A complicated history left the area with multiple land tenure systems. Much of this region, today known as Gilgit-Baltistan, is disputed with India. Consequently, it has a constitutionally liminal status and its people do not enjoy equal citizenship rights. With the construction of the China–Pakistan Economic Corridor, a major part of the global Belt and Road Initiative, Chinese influence has been entangled in local histories and political economies.
Engenharia diagnóstica aplicada à Perícia Criminal em local de desabamento: um ensaio de carbonatação com o uso de fenolftaleína
Authors: Cotomacio André Carrara
Published: March 2024

Desastres envolvendo edificações e obras na construção civil possuem grande repercussão na sociedade, não somente devido às perdas materiais, mas, principalmente, em razão do impacto gerado nas eventuais vítimas, podendo custar suas vidas, prejudicar o seu bem-estar físico e psicológico e consumir os seus recursos e os de suas famílias. À vista desse panorama, demandas judiciais podem ser levadas à discussão não somente nas áreas cível, trabalhista e previdenciária, mas também na esfera penal. Nesse sentido, a Engenharia Forense, por meio da Engenharia Diagnóstica, tem se mostrado uma grande aliada para esclarecer aos Magistrados questões técnicas necessárias à apuração das causas de um desabamento e de suas responsabilidades. Destarte, o presente trabalho tem por objetivo apresentar os aspectos observados quando da perícia em um local de desabamento ocorrido em um estabelecimento público de saúde, aplicando os princípios da Engenharia Diagnóstica à Perícia Criminal, amparados pelo método científico. Além desses elementos, também foi constatada a viabilidade da realização de um ensaio não destrutivo, barato e de fácil execução com o uso de fenolftaleína, para a determinação da profundidade de carbonatação do concreto — fator que indica o comprometimento da estrutura. Em outro quadrante, também foram identificados aspectos administrativos e de gestão de engenharia que caracterizam condutas que inobservaram o dever objetivo de cuidado, podendo estabelecer nexo de causalidade entre essa inobservância e os resultados lesivos dela advindos.

Este artigo aborda a implementação do sistema de gestão da qualidade (SGQ), no período de 2018 a 2022, ocorrido no Laboratório de Genética Forense da Polícia Cientifica do Amapá (LGF/PCA). Desde 2010, o LGF/PCA participa do compartilhamento de perfis genéticos com outros laboratórios de DNA forense no Brasil, através do banco de dados de perfis genéticos criminal e de identificação, utilizando o software CODIS. Porém, a Rede Integrada de Perfis Genéticos (RIBPG) instituiu resoluções especificas, sendo Resolução nº 12-CG/RIBPG, de 1 de agosto de 2019, a que estabelece os critérios mínimos para que um LGF no Brasil possa compartilhar os perfis genéticos a partir do Banco Nacional de Perfis Genético (BNPG). E utilizando uma metodologia  descritiva e exploratória com abordagem qualitativa através de pesquisa bibliográfica, documentais e observações diretas, os autores descrevem como foi o desenvolvimento e os resultados observados antes e após a implementação do SGQ tendo como parâmetro de análise as auditorias externas e interna pelas quais o LGF/PCA foi submetido, destacando-se as experiências e desafios enfrentados, com o objetivo de ajudar a fomentar o conhecimento para outros laboratórios que estão iniciando a jornada da qualidade.
Feminists are warriors: Framing effects of war metaphors
Authors:   Universidad Católica del Uruguay, Montevideo, Uruguay, Reali Florencia , Avellaneda Lucien ,   Universidad de los Andes, Bogotá, Colombia
Published: March 2024

Metaphors influence general attitudes towards political and social ideas (Otieno et al. 2016). In particular, war metaphors are very common in political discourse. Their framing effects, however, depend on the context in which war metaphors are used, rendering positive or negative outcomes (Flusberg et al. 2018; Thibodeau 2018). Reali (2021) explored metaphorical framing of feminism and women in feminism-related news in online media in Spanish, finding that war metaphors depicting women as warriors fighting for their rights were the most prevalent ones. Here, we use an experimental paradigm to explore whether the use of war metaphors affects the perception of issues defended by the feminist movements. Spanish-speaking participants were exposed to a vignette describing a hypothetical case of elective abortion. Two variables were manipulated in a 2X2 between-subjects design: 1.the use of warfare framing (war metaphors/neutral frames), and 2.the use of inclusive language in Spanish (gender inclusive/gender neutral language). Additionally, participants’ sociodemographic data were collected. A series of regression analyses showed an effect of metaphorical framing on the perception of the right to decide, perception of the partner’s right to opine, and the perception of the main character’s coldness when controlling for sociodemographic variables. The use of inclusive language had little effect on perception. Consistent with previous findings, sociodemographic factors strongly affected perception: men, and conservative and religious participants rated the right to decide lower, and character’s coldness as higher.
Understanding and evaluation: A cross-linguistic study of the evaluative collocates of English and Armenian verbs of understanding
Authors:   Yerevan State University, Armenia, Yerznkyan Yelena , Movsisyan Diana ,   Armenian State University of Economics, Armenia
Published: March 2024

The paper studies the correlation between understanding and evaluation in the light of social interactions, and aims at exploring the metaphorical mapping of the process of understanding in the English and Armenian languages. The purpose of the paper is to analyze the two cognitive processes, based on the contrastive study of verbs of understanding in terms of the evaluative meaning of their collocates, thus explaining the dynamics of understanding-evaluation relations, fully manifested in the metaphorical patterns underlying the sense of the verb. It is shown that the evaluative meaning of the collocates plays a pivotal role in shaping how understanding is emotionally and rationally assessed. A corpus driven analysis of the English and Armenian factual material reveals the collocations that metaphorically confer different dimensions to the process of understanding and points out a clear tendency to mark understanding as positive when evaluated rationally and negative when evaluated emotionally. The research detects and determines three types of evaluation in the axiological system under study and classifies them as emotional, rational or orientational. Their relative positioning on the axiological scale correlates with the accepted norm viewed as the deictic centre (reference point) of the whole process. The main findings of the research make a novel contribution to the study of understanding-evaluation correlation, offering insights into the metaphorical nature of how understanding is perceived and evaluated in both English and Armenian.

Published: March 2024

The temperature of the Indonesian Low-Speed Tunnel (ILST) wind tunnel test section was measured using a Pt100-type Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD) sensor. With the upgrade of the Indonesian Low-Speed Tunnel - Data Acquisition and Reduction System (ILST-DARS) using Ethernet communication, an integrated RTD linearization circuit was designed with the Conditioning Unit (CU) Mk3 to replace the Newport 267B 16-bit parallel and DAS-Hub as the current RTD interface. In this research, the design of the signal conditioner uses the RTD_Linearization_v7.xls program from Texas Instruments, the LTspice simulator software, and the AMP01E precision instrumentation amplifier. Based on the calibration results in the range of 20 – 50 0C, this signal conditioner has an average deviation value of 0.38 0C (1.31%). In the wind tunnel speed variation testing with a range of 30 – 65 m/s, the RTD signal conditioner had an average deviation of 0.41 K (0.14%). The Repeatability Test procedure was carried out at a wind speed of 65 m/s with an angle of attack for the test model from -90 to 200 and data were collected 10 times at each angle. The average deviation of temperature against variations in the angle of attack of the test model in this procedure is 0.25 K (0.08%) and the average deviation of wind speed against variations in the angle of attack of the test model is 0.03 m/s (0.04%).
Pemahaman tentang Gizi dan Perilaku Kesehatan Ibu pada Fenomena Balita Stunting (Studi Fenomenologi Masyarakat Kelurahan Candirejo Kecamatan Ungaran Barat)
Authors: Al Hakim Muhammad Nu’man , Husain Fadly
Published: March 2024

Kelurahan Candirejo merupakan kelurahan binaan Universitas Ngudi Waluyo, dengan kategori masyarakat kelas menengah dan lokasinya yang strategis karena dekat dengan pusat kota Kabupaten Semarang, namun memiliki kasus balita stunting tertinggi se-Kecamatan Ungaran Barat selama tiga tahun berturut-turut pada tahun 2019, 2020, dan 2021. Penelitian ini bertujuan 1) mengetahui persepsi dan pengetahuan dari masyarakat dan penyedia layanan kesehatan tentang stunting dan kesehatan anak, 2) mengetahui pemahaman sosio-kultural masyarakat Kelurahan Candirejo tentang makanan dan gizi, 3) mengetahui perilaku kesehatan ibu saat hamil hingga setelah melahirkan bagi ibu yang memiliki balita stunting.

Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif dengan metode pengumpalan datanya adalah observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Validitas data untuk mencapai derajat keabsahan hasil penelitian menggunakan triangulasi. Teknik analisis data yang digunakan adalah model Creswell, yaitu 1) data lapangan hasil wawancara, 2) pengetikan data: teks, 3) membaca keseluruhan teks, 4) koding dan kualifikasi, 5) Deskripsi, pola, dan tema. Hasil Penelitian dianalisis menggunakan konsep makanan dan gizi Foster dan Anderson serta teori perilaku kesehatan Lawrence Green.

Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa sebagian masyarakat Kelurahan Candirejo mempersepsikan stunting istilah cebol atau pendek. Istilah cebol di Kelurahan Candirejo menjadi kata-kata bermakna ejekan, hal ini menjadi salah satu alasan sebagian orang tua yang memiliki anak stunting selalu mencari pembenaran bahwa anaknya tidak mengalami stunting dan anaknya akan tinggi suatu saat nanti tepatnya ketika anaknya sudah SMP. Selain mencari pembenaran, sebagian masyarakat Kelurahan Candirejo, juga tidak suka di atur dalam pemilihan makanan dan lebih memilih makanan berdasarkan kebiasaan makanan sehari-hari dan cita rasa yang menurutnya enak, terlepas makanan itu bergizi atau tidak. Ada pula budaya pantang makan yang dipercaya sebagian masyarakat yaitu saat kondisi hamil dan menyusui, contoh salah satunya ikan lele yang menjadi pantang dimakan saat hamil dan makanan pantang saat menyusui adalah udang.

Cookies are a practical food, easy to make, and can be stored for a long time. The main raw material for making cookies is wheat flour. Considering that the nutritional content of sorghum is not inferior to wheat flour, sorghum has the opportunity to replace wheat in food processing. The purpose of this study was to analyze the nutritional content and antioxidant activity of cookies substituted with sorghum flour. The design used an experimental study using the RAL (Completely Randomized Design) method. Cookies formulation carried out as many as 4 formulas.The best cookies were analyzed descriptively with the mean value and one-way-anova. The nutritional content of cookies was analyzed by gravimetric and titrimetric methods and the antioxidant activity test was analyzed by the DPPH method. The nutritional content of cookies substituted with sorghum flour obtained was the value of carbohydrates (49.9%), protein (5.69%), and fat (25.2%) and the antioxidant activity value of cookies substituted with sorghum flour was 104.48 ppm. The nutritional content of cookies has met the quality requirements of cookies based on SNI. 2793-2011 and the value of antioxidant activity on cookies substituted with sorghum flour is in the medium category based on the IC50 value.
The Electric Double Layer: A Physical Reality?
Authors:   Chemistry Department, Reading University, England, Hardman T. M.
Published: March 2024

Interfacial potential differences can only be interpreted in terms of a physical reality between phases of identical chemical composition. Many substances acquire a charge when immersed in water and migrate under an applied electric field. This is usually interpreted in terms of an ionic double layer at the surface and the zeta potential is defined as the potential at the plain of shear. It is doubtful if the concept of the zeta potential is of assistance in describing electrokinetic phenomena as interfacial potentials are only physically meaningful in a few carefully proscribed instances. Instead, in electrophoresis, for example, all the necessary observed experimental data to define the system should be recorded and a comparison made of mobilities, other parameters being kept constant.
The Effect of Cellulose on the Structure of Water: View 1
Authors:   Pulp & Paper Research Institute of Canada and Department of Chemistry, McGill University, Goring D. A. I.
Published: March 2024

The apparent thermal expansion of cellulose immersed in liquid water, d⌀₂/dT, is several times that of dry cellulose. A similar but greater disparity is observed when the temperature dependence of the apparent specific volume of glucose in aqueous solution is compared with the thermal expansion of crystalline glucose. This effect appears to be a general one for polyols such as glucose and glycerol and can be interpreted in terms of a ‘mixture’ theory of water structure. Water is pictured as being made up of small short-lived clusters which may be classified as either solidlike or fluidlike. The solidlike component consists of rigid, hydrogen bonded ring structures (tetramer, pentamer, hexamer). The fluidlike component consists of non-rigid, less hydrogen bonded, chain structures (dimer, trimer, star pentamer). Surfaces rich in hydroxyl groups appear to act as structure breakers by causing an increase in the proportion of the fluidlike component in the water adjacent to the interface. With cellulose, this perturbed layer consists of the non-rigid chain structures, hydrogen bonded to the -OH groups on the surface. The high values for d⌀₂/dT for glucose and cellulose are caused by the high thermal expansion of the perturbed layer.

Since the March 2020 Pandemic that hit Indonesia, this condition has greatly impacted various aspects of life. Not only economic and social, but also in the political field, including the process of implementing democracy through the 2020 simultaneous regional elections. One of the regions that will hold the December 2020 elections is Sleman Regency. Political participation in the 2020 Pilkada in Sleman has decreased compared to political participation in the 2019 election. In the 2020 Pilkada it only reached 75.82%, while in the 2019 Election it could reach 87.7%. PAN. The ongoing Covid-19 pandemic is one of the main factors causing the decline in voter turnout. This study aims to determine the factors that influence the decrease in the level of community participation in the 2020 Pilkada during the pandemic condition in Sleman Regency. This research uses a qualitative approach with a literature study method. The results of this study indicate that the decline in the level of community participation in the 2020 Pilkada in Sleman Regency is influenced by several factors, among others, the first is the Covid-19 pandemic condition where not all residents registered in the DPT can participate in voting due to constraints on domicile outside the region with PPKM rules that apply. enforced by the government. Second, there is insufficient information and socialization related to the Pilkada and health protocols for preventing Covid-19 that were enforced during the Pilkada
