A má utilização da água e a deficiência de hábitos higiênicos podem desencadear doenças de origem parasitária, bacteriana e vírica, sendo as parasitoses de origem hídrica dominantes das patologias existentes no cenário mundial. A água ingerida pela população precisa estar em condições adequadas para o consumo, pois trata-se de um constituinte importante para o organismo. Neste sentido, este trabalho objetivou-se em analisar a qualidade físico-química e microbiológica da água de poços subterrâneos localizados no município de Jaru-RO. Foram selecionados vinte e quatro poços para a verificação dos parâmetro: pH, condutividade, oxigênio dissolvido, dureza total, alcalinidade total, cloretos, amônia, cloro (método N,N-dietil-p-fenileno diamina – DPD), cor, ferro, oxigênio consumido e coliformes totais em uma única campanha no mês de julho de 2019, comparando os resultados com os estabelecidos pela legislação vigente. Dentre os poços analisados, apenas 16,7% apresentaram resultados dentro dos padrões com relação ao pH, isto se deve as características do solo da região, 12,5% apresentaram resultados não satisfatório com relação a concentração de oxigênio dissolvido e 83,3% apresentaram valores maiores de coliformes totais do que prevê a Portaria 2914 do Ministério da Saúde, sendo este um dado preocupante. Desse modo, este estudo mostrou que um melhor gerenciamento destes poços pode ser feito, pois mesmo com a cloração estes ainda apresentam altos níveis de contaminantes.

Em relação à qualidade das águas subterrâneas, a presença de nitrato está entre os principais indicadores de poluição dos recursos hídricos. Este trabalho teve como objetivo investigar a presença de nitrato e conhecer o processo de remoção do íon nitrato de águas oriundas de fontes subterrâneas da bacia hidrográfica do Ribeirão Borba Gato (BHBG), utilizando carvão ativado. As amostras foram coletadas entre 08/2014 a 08/2015, em 19 poços tubulares e submetidas a análises físico-químicas, onde foi explorada a remoção do íon nitrato por meio de filtro de carvão ativado comercial. A partir das análises foi possível verificar possíveis riscos de contaminação antrópica, por meio das concentrações de nitrato e detectar a quantidade de nitrato que o filtro comercial de carvão ativado retém no processo de filtração lenta. Grande parte das amostras evidenciaram concentrações de nitrato acima dos valores naturais para águas subterrâneas. Verificou-se, portanto, que as fontes subterrâneas da BHBG vêm sofrendo contaminação, podendo apresentar outros poluentes de igual ou superior periculosidade à saúde humana e ambiental.
The Late Cretaceous flora of the Khatanga depression
Authors: Golovneva L. B.
Published: June 2020

Fossil plants from the Late Cretaceous deposits of the Khatanga depression are joined in three floristic assemblages: the Ledyanaya assemblage (the Turonian-Coniacian), the Kheta assemblage (the late Coniacian-early Santonian) and Mutino assemblage (the late Santonian-early Campanian).

The Ledyanaya floristic assemblage contains ferns (Anemia rarinervis Abramova), cycadophytes (Nilssonia sp.), ginkgoales (Ginkgo ex gr. sibirica Heer), conifers (Taxodium sp., Sequoia tenuifolia (Schmalh.) Sveshn. et Budants.) and angiosperms (Pseudoprotophyllum hatangaense Abramova, Liriodendropsis simplex (Newb.) Newb., Trochodendroides sp., ะกissites sp., Dicotylophyllum sp.). The characteristic features of this assemblage are depauperated composition of angiosperms and survival of the Early Cretaceous relic elements. The Kheta floristic assemblage contains only Taxodium sp. and Trochodendroides sp. The Mutino floristic assemblage contains Sequoia tenuifolia, Pseudoprotophyllum hatangaense, Quereuxia angulata (Newb.) Krysht. ex Baik. and Cobbania corrugata (Lesq.) Stockey, Rothwell et Johnson.

The Ledyanaya floristic assemblage is very similar with the Newsiberian flora from the Derevyannye Gory Formation of New Siberia Island. The Mutino floristic assemblage have common elements with Kundur flora (the Campanian) from the Kundur Formation of Amur region. The abundance of large leaves of Pseudoprotophyllum in the Mutino flora is evidence of the preservation of humid warm-temperate climate in the northern part of Siberia up to the Campanian. The presence of water plants Quereuxia angulata and Cobbania corrugada indicates the westward migration of some characteristic elements of the Pacific ocean lowlands.

Thermoanalytical, optical, and magnetic investigations on nanocrystalline Li0.5Fe2.5O4 and resulting ceramics prepared by a starch-based softchemistry synthesis
Authors: Köferstein Roberto
Published: May 2020

Nanocrystalline Li0.5Fe2.5O4 was prepared by a starch-based soft-chemistry synthesis. Calcining of the (LiFe)-gel between 350 and 1000 °C results in Li0.5Fe2.5O4powders with crystallite sizes from 13 to 141 nm and specific surface areas between 35 and 7.1 m2 g−1. XRD investigations reveal the formation of ordered Li0.5Fe2.5O4. Sintering between 1050 and 1250 °C leads to ceramics with relative densities of 67−95 % consisting ofgrains between 0.3 and 54 μm. As the sintering temperature increases a rising weight loss ofthe ceramic samples was observed due to the loss of Li2O. Temperature-dependent magnetic measurements indicate a superparamagnetic behaviour for the nano-sized samples. Field-dependent measurements at 3 K of ceramics sintered between 1050 and 1200 °C showincreasing saturation magnetization values (Ms) of 70.0 to 73.0 emu g−1 most likely due to the formation of lithium vacancies and a decrease of the inversion parameter. The magnetization drops down to 67.7 emu g−1 after sintering at 1250 °C caused by the formation of hematite.Diffuse reflectance spectra reveal an indirect allowed band gap decreasing from 1.93 to 1.60 eV depending on thermal treatment. DSC measurements of the order - disorder phase transition on nano-sized powders and bulk ceramics exhibit transition temperatures between 734 and 755 °C and enthalpy changes (ΔtrsH) ranging from 5.0 to 13.5 J g−1. The linear starch was found to be 11.4⋅10−6 K−1.

An Alternative Approach To User Fee Policy In The Primary Health Care Setting Of Bangladesh.
Authors: Akhter Nazneen
Published: May 2020

The concept of ascribing user fee in health care settings always remained a policy struggle and countries experienced different learning in this regards while implementing user fee at different tiers of health settings. The most exquisite learning among the many country specific evidences related to user fee are the match and mismatch between the equity principle and benefit principle while considering the client perspective. There is an added dimension of quality care which also add more complex dynamics into this concept since the quality care consideration has a double edged perspective both for clients and providers, where which one will get superiority over whom is a great question in health care, especially in the Primary Health care (PHC) of the country. In this reality the appropriate implementation guideline, followed by an appropriate practice of the administrative and management both service oriented and financial are of great importance in this user fee implementation consideration which always remained a challenge in the health care specially in remote care of PHC. This paper attempted a secondary data searching and scoping the available documents of Bangladesh and across the world to find an alternative approach to user fees policy where equity and benefit principle and quality - these three have to be placed in a well-constructed triad in PHC implementation which has been recommended as an alternative policy imperative in approaching user fees for Bangladesh PHC settings.

Terror Management Theory: Missiological Applications in Times of Crisis
Authors: Dunaetz David Robert
Published: May 2020

Terror Management Theory seeks to explain the human motivation to find meaning in life. The theory proposes that humans experience anxiety, even terror, when faced with the reality of their own mortality. To manage this anxiety, humans are motivated to adopt worldviews that indicate that they are significant (in contrast to meaningless) and that they will endure beyond death, either figuratively or literally. Global crises, such as natural disasters, terrorism, or war, make human mortality salient on a large scale. In such situations, humans are more than ever motivated to seek an afterlife, to act in a way to be remembered favorably after death, and to identify with communities that will transcend the duration of their own life. These conditions make some individuals especially open to the gospel which explains how humans can experience eternal life, how they can live righteous lives full of love, and how they can fit into both the Christian community and the Missio Dei. Missionaries should use this openness to the gospel in sensitive and loving ways to help victims of global crises discover a solution to the existential terror that they experience when facing their own mortality. The loving response of missionaries is to proclaim the Christian worldview so that people can make sense out of the crisis and respond positively to the gospel.

ABSTRACK Ambiguity is a meaningful thing or has more than two meanings. Most people misinterpret what is read and hear. This can occur both in spoken speech and writing. This interpretation of more than one can raise doubts and confusion in making decisions about meaning referred to, so that the reader must be observant in grasping the meaning of that intended by the writer. Ambiguity at this level occurs because of the sounds of spoken language. sometimes it can be misinterpreted the meaning of a word or phrase because during a conversation the phrase or word is said too quickly. This study aims to describe the ambiguity of the Indonesian language used by Iqra University students in composing narratives and papers. This type of research is qualitative research that is naturally or in the context of a wholeness. by using descriptive collected in the form of words and not numbers. The data in this study are data that contain ambiguity using the theories of experts when analyzing. Data collection techniques namely after describing the form of words and phrases in Indonesian written by students after that are analyzed according to theory. the results showed that in students' essays there were words and phrases that contained ambiguity

Numerous studies have consistently reported functional activation of the cerebellum duringreading tasks, especially in the right cerebellar hemisphere. However, it remains unclear whether this regionis also involved in reading in the earliest stages of reading acquisition. Here, we investigated whether andhow the cerebellum contributes to reading acquisition. We tested 80 5-6-year-old kindergarteners, whoperformed a visual word matching task during which functional MRI (fMRI) data were collected. We foundthat bilateral cerebellar hemispheres were significantly activated during visual word processing. Moreover,activation of left cerebellar lobule VII extended to lobule VIII negatively and significantly correlated withcurrent reading ability, whereas activation of right cerebellar lobule VII extended to lobule VIII significantlyand positively correlated with future reading ability. Functional decoding via functional connectivity patternsfurther revealed that left and right cerebellar lobules connected with different cerebral cortex. Our resultssuggest a division of labor between the left and right cerebellar lobules in beginning readers.
Determinants of preventive behaviors in response to the COVID-19 pandemic in France: comparing the sociocultural, psychosocial and social cognitive explanations.
Authors: Raude Jocelyn
Published: May 2020

In absence of effective pharmaceutical treatments, the individual’s compliance with a series of behavioral recommendations provided by the public health authorities play a critical role in the control and prevention of SARS-CoV2 infection. However, we still do not know much about the rate and determinants of adoption of the recommended health behaviors. This paper examines the compliance with the main behavioral recommendations, and compares sociocultural, psychosocial and social cognitive explanations for its variation in the French population. Based on the current literature, these 3 categories of factors were identified as potential determinants of individual differences in the health preventive behaviors. The data used for these analyses are drawn from 2 cross-sectional studies (N ≥ 2,000) conducted after the lockdown and before the peak of the COVID-19 epidemic in France. The participants were drawn from a larger internet consumer panel where recruitment was stratified to generate a socio-demographically representative sample of the French adult population. Overall, the results show a very high rate of compliance with the behavioral recommendations among the participants. A series of linear regression analyses were then performed to assess the potential explanatory power of these approaches in complying with these recommendations by successively including sociocultural factors, psychosocial factors, social cognitive factors, and then all factors, in the model. Only the inclusion of the cognitive variables substantially increased the explained variance of the self-reported adoption of preventive behaviors, providing better support for the social cognitive than the sociocultural and psychosocial explanations.
Ten steps toward a better personality science - how quality may be rewarded more in research evaluation
Authors: Leising Daniel , Thielmann Isabel , Glöckner Andreas , Gärtner Anne , Schönbrodt Felix D.
Published: May 2020

We point out ten steps that we think will go a long way in improving personality science. The first five steps focus on fostering consensus regarding (1) research goals, (2) terminology, (3) measurement practices, (4) data handling, and (5) the current state of theory and evidence. The other five steps focus on improving the credibility of empirical research, through (6) formal modelling, (7) mandatory pre-registration for confirmatory claims, (8) replication as a routine practice, (9) planning for informative studies (e.g., in terms of statistical power), and (10) making data, analysis scripts, and materials openly available. The current, quantity- based incentive structures in academia clearly stand in the way of implementing many of these practices, resulting in a research literature with sometimes questionable utility and/or integrity. As a solution, we propose a quality-based reward scheme that explicitly weights published research by its Good Science merits. Scientists need to be increasingly rewarded for doing good work, not just lots of work.

Adopting open science principles can be challenging and time-intensive, because doing so requires substantial conceptual education and training in the use of new tools. This paper introduces the Workflow for Open Reproducible Code in Science (WORCS): A step-by-step procedure that researchers can follow to make a research project open and reproducible. The purpose of the workflow is to lower the threshold for adoption of open science principles. It is based on established best practices, and can be used either in parallel to, or in absence of, top-down requirements by journals, institutions, and funding bodies. To facilitate widespread adoption, the WORCS principles have been implemented in the R package worcs, which offers an RStudio project template and utility functions for specific workflow steps. This paper introduces the conceptual workflow, discusses how it meets different standards for open science, and addresses the functionality provided by the R implementation, worcs. This paper is primarily targeted towards scholars conducting research projects in R, conducting research that involves academic prose, analysis code, and (optionally) tabular data. However, the workflow is flexible enough to accommodate other scenarios, and offers a sensible starting point for customized solutions. The source code for the R package and manuscript, and a list of user examples of WORCS projects, are available at https://github.com/cjvanlissa/worcs.

Published: May 2020

Ghost cell odontogenic carcinoma (GCOC) a rare malignant Odontogenic Carcinoma with an unpredictable behaviour presenting with local recurrences and distant metastases, to best of our knowledge about 38 cases have been reported in the past. This is an additional case of GCOC in a 25-year old female presented with a slow-growing mandibular swelling since 9 months with restricted jaw mobility. The CT scan showed an ill-defined osteodestructive lesion in the mandible. The histological examination confirms the diagnoses as a GCOC.
Immunohistochemical examination was performed for Ki-67 proliferation index and p53 a predictor of progression. This case was managed by wide surgical resection of tumor and reconstruction of the defect by free fibular flap. Six months follow- up period shows no signs of recurrence. GCOC is rare Odontogenic Carcinoma with unpredictable behaviour however p53 & Ki67 proliferation index can predict the progression of tumor and help in differentiation from benign precursor lesions as early diagnosis & treatment of GCOC is necessary to prevent local recurrences & distant metastases.

Published: May 2020

Background: The clinician's role is paramount in surgical pathologist’s evaluation of surgical specimens. The study aims at evaluating clinicians’ role in the surgical pathology process in Nigeria.
Materials and Methods: This is a three-year (2016-2018) study of all (1262) routines surgical pathology specimens (SPS) received at the histopathology department of Delta State University Teaching Hospital Oghara. Parameters analyzed include the quality of the containers and fixatives used during specimen submission and the information supplied by the clinician (Specimen nature, patients’ age, gender, address, , hospital number, phone number and clinical information. The information was analyzed using Microsoft Excel 2017 and the result presented in tables.
Results: Nine (0.6%) SPS were not stored in appropriate fixative while in 88(8.3%) cases, the quantity of fixatives were inadequate. Forty (3.2%) of sample containers were inadequate while 86(6.8%) of the sample labels were wrongly placed. Fifty-two containers accommodated more than one SPS. The gender, age, address, hospital number, time of collection in day and hour were omitted in 21(1.7%), 18(1.4%), 627(49.7%), 921(73.0%) and 58(4.6%) of the cases respectively. The clinical request form, clinical findings, previous investigations, previous treatment history and presumptive or definitive diagnosis were missing in 288(22.8%), 192(15.2%), 282(22.4%), 424(33.6%), 340(27.0%) and 98(7.7%) cases respectively. Their names, contact telephone numbers and signature were omitted in the request in 58(4.6%), 1230(97.5%) and 143(11.3%) of the cases respectively.
Conclusions: Among the parameters evaluated, Clinicians are mostly non-compliant in providing clinical information and their phone numbers. Continuous education and interaction with clinicians, computerized information management system and introduction of non-conformity registrar are possible ways of closing this gap.

Results: The biochemical results showed that the mean plasma glucose of Type 1 diabetes (213.65±20.35) and Type 2 diabetes (218.78+7.85) were significantly (P<0.05) higher than that of non-diabetic control (81.88±17.22) mg/dl; the mean plasma glucose and the systolic reading of the Diabetes Mellitus with Nephropathy, hypertension, coronary artery disease, neuropathy, and retinopathy patients were significantly (p<0.05) higher than the control subjects. Among diabetic hypertensive patients mean insulin and c-peptide levels were significantly (p<0.05) lower, while the mean insulin level was insignificantly (p>0.05) lower in diabetic patients with neuropathy or coronary artery disease. No significant (p>0.05) differences was observed in the mean plasma c-peptide level, and diastolic reading of diabetic patient with neuropathy. There were no significant (p>0.05) differences in the mean plasma c-peptide level, systolic and diastolic readings of Diabetic patients with coronary heart disease or retinopathy.
Conclusion: There were significant differences in the blood pressure parameters in both the diabetes mellitus and diabetic complications in this study.

Background: Touch/ imprint cytology has been utilized for intraoperative evaluations of tumors to complement frozen sections in order to reach diagnosis prior to histopathology diagnosis. The main aim of this study is to find role of touch imprint in determining histopathology diagnosis of ovarian neoplasm.
Materials and Methods: All together one hundred three cases were evaluated using both touch/imprint and histopathology diagnosis. The histopathology diagnoses consisted of Benign (n=85), borderline (n=4), and malignant (n=12). Touch imprint cytology consists of Negative for malignancy (n=90), Positive for malignancy (n=11) and inadequate (n=2). Inadequate smear was excluded from the study.
Results: Both touch / imprint cytology were able to diagnose benign and malignant ovarian neoplasm. Out of 103 cases, in cytology showed 89.1% patients were negative and 10.9% patients were positive. Histopathology shows 84.2% of benign ovarian neoplasm, 3.9% borderline neoplasm and 11.9% of malignant. Diagnostic accuracy of touch/ imprint was 99% with sensitivity 100% and specificity was 91.67%. Positive predictive value was 98.89% and negative predictive value was 100%.
Conclusion: Touch/ imprint cytology examination is simple, rapid and useful test in evaluation of ovarian neoplasms. It plays very important role in preliminary intraoperative diagnosis of benign and malignant ovarian neoplasms.

Malignant odontogenic tumors are rare and represent approximately 1% of all oral malignancies. Ameloblastic Carcinoma is an uncommon malignant odontogenic tumor accounting for 1.5%-2.0% of all odontogenic tumors that can be difficult to differentiate from Ameloblastoma, and can arise directly as an undifferentiated lesion or from a preexisting benign lesion. It is a highly aggressive tumor with rapid growth and a high potential for distant metastasis. The most common site of occurrence is posterior mandible. Here we present a case report of Ameloblastic Carcinoma, relapse case of a benign lesion 15 years after surgery which presented as firm growth in the right mandible for 2 months.
A radical shift in the diagnostic approach to diffuse gliomas
Authors: Panth Rajesh
Published: May 2020

Astrocytic tumours comprise the majority of central nervous system tumours and they have been traditionally graded as recommended by World Health Organization on the basis of atypia, mitoses, microvascular proliferation and necrosis. The 2016 WHO classification of diffuse gliomas incorporates both molecular and histological criteria to categorize these tumours to better predict behavior. A layered diagnostic format is now the recommended approach with the WHO grade being assigned on histological criteria to be supplemented by molecular characterization once the result of isocitrate dehydrogenase is available. The presence of 1p/19q-codeletion has now been included in the definition of oligodendrogliomas. Oligoastrocytomas have now almost vanished as an entity because they are classified as either astrocytomas or oligodendrogliomas after molecular testing. Tests have to be modified in resource limited settings to reach a molecular diagnosis based on new scientific literature and research.

Perubahan kondisi pasar membuat UKM pengecoran logam mengubah produk yang diproduksi. Perubahan produk yang diproduksi diikuti dengan jenis cetakan yang digunakan. Awalnya, UKM ini hanya menggunakan cetakan logam, tetapi saat ini diperlukan cetakan tanah untuk membuat produk yang baru. Dengan penambahan jenis cetakan yang digunakan, terdapat beberapa kendala pada proses pencetakan logam. Peletakan cetakan tanah yang jauh dari tungku membuat kekentalan logam berbeda antara produk satu dengan yang lainnya. Untuk mengurangi jumlah kecacatan hasil produksi, perlu dilakukan penataan ulang fasilitas. Penataan ulang fasilitas dimulai dari pembuatan peta proses operasi untuk setiap produk sampai dengan perhitungan-perhitungan total momen produk dengan menggunakan From to Chart (FTC). Dengan melakukan beberapa kali percobaan, maka diperoleh sebuah layout usulan yang menghasilkan total momen produk terkecil dan jumlah output lebih banyak dari sebelumnya. Sehingga, dapat dikatakan bahwa layout tersebut dapat meningkatkan kualitas dan produktivitas UKM pengecoran logam.

ABSTRAKDalam pengembangan dunia pertanian, Indonesia terus mengembangkan beragam varietas padi. Hal ini karena pertumbuhan penduduk yang cukup pesat, produksi beras Indonesia tidak mampu mencukupi kebutuhan dalam negeri sehingga perlu dilakukan impor beras. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui faktor yang berpengaruh pada pendapatan usahatani padi dan membandingkan pendapatan usahatani padi antara varietas Ciherang dengan IR.64. Dilihat dari geografisnya, Kabupaten Semarang cukup strategis dan memiliki potensi wilayah dalam peningkatan produksi beras. Di Kecamatan Banyubiru, Kabupaten Semarang, petani lebih memilih varietas Ciherang dan IR64 untuk ditanam karena sesuai dengan faktor lingkungan pertumbuhan dan perkembangan tanaman, seperti suhu, struktur tanah, jenis tanah, pH tanah dan iklim. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan varietas Ciherang pada indikator benih lebih efektif dibandingkan varietas IR.64 dengan p-value < 0,05. Sedangkan untuk varietas IR.64 indikator pupuk, tenaga kerja, dan pestisida lebih efektif dibandingkan dengan varietas Ciherang dengan p-value < 0,05.ABSTRACTIn developing of agriculture, Indonesia continues to develop a variety of rice varieties. This is because the population growth is quite rapid, so that Indonesia rice production is not able to meet domestic needs so it requires importing rice from other countries. This study aims to determine the factors that influence rice farming income and compare it between Ciherang and IR.64 varieties. From its geography, Semarang Regency is quite strategic and has the potential of the region in increasing rice production. In Banyubiru District, Semarang Regency, farmers prefer Ciherang and IR.64 varieties to be planted because they are in accordance with environmental factors with plant growth and development, such as temperature, soil structure, soil type, soil pH and climate. The results showed that the Ciherang variety in the seed indicator was more effective than the IR.64 variety with p-value <0.005. Whereas for IR.64 varieties, fertilizer, labor and pesticide indicators were more effective than Ciherang varieties with p-value <0.05.
