Published: September 2024

Located at the Tlagah village hall, more than 200 residents made KTPs and around 100 more made birth certificates. The realization of this program departs from the fact that there are still many residents of Tlagah village who do not have ID cards, especially the elderly, and this becomes a problem when there is assistance from the government because they have to use ID cards. As a result, assistance in the form of money or groceries and other assistance is often misdirected because those who deserve it do not meet the requirements (don't have an ID card). The enthusiasm and warm response was shown by the Tlagah village community. The implementation of this activity was also assisted by the youth, the coordinator and the Tlagah village youth group. They all accompanied and assisted officers when the recording was carried out. Making electronic ID cards for the Tlagah village community, served by a ball pick-up mechanism (mobile service). They don't need to go directly to the office or at the sub-district service house, but officers from the Population and Civil Registration Office come directly to a predetermined location. So that the existence of a service model like this in the future must increase its capacity and reach, such as services for birth certificates and electronic KTP recording in hospitals and other places that facilitate access for the community. With this service model, it is hoped that public awareness about the importance of population documents and civil registration documents will increase. In addition, the presence of this program is intended to make it easier for people to get services from government or private institutions because they already have a resident identity.

Authors: Wang Ying , Strzepek Tamera J. , Costello Dawn M. , Crowley Patricia A. , Plavnicky John S. , Russell Donna K. , Wu Guan , Jean-Gilles Jerome , Miyamoto Hiroshi
Published: September 2024

Context.—

Urothelial denudation seen in transurethral biopsy specimens may occasionally indicate the presence of discohesive high-grade urothelial carcinoma (HGUC).

Objective.—

To determine if denuded urothelial cells can be detected in the supernatants of formalin solution collected from the containers of transurethral biopsy/resection specimens after the entire tissue was submitted for histologic examination.

Design.—

We assessed the formalin supernatants by processing for cell block (n = 43) or ThinPrep smear (n = 57).

Results.—

In the cell block cohort, only 2 of 43 cases (5%) (1 pTa HGUC, 1 pT1 HGUC) showed rare urothelial cells. By contrast, in the ThinPrep method, the smear was satisfactory for evaluation in 52 of 57 cases (91%). The cytologic diagnosis of HGUC was made in the smears from 7 of 12 (58%) pTa/pT1 cases and 6 of 9 (67%) pTis cases. Remarkably, HGUC cells were detected in 2 of 5 cases (40%) with histologic diagnosis of urothelial atypia suspicious for but not diagnostic of urothelial carcinoma in situ. Additionally, in 31 cases exhibiting urothelial denudation without definitive cancer on hematoxylin-eosin–stained slides, HGUC cells (2 of 31; 6%), atypical urothelial cells (5 of 31; 16%), or benign-appearing urothelial cells (20 of 31; 65%) were present, and only 4 of 31 (13%) were unsatisfactory.

Conclusions.—

Cytologic examination of ThinPrep smears from the formalin supernatants even following submission of the entire transurethral biopsy/resection specimens for histologic examination is useful for assessing denuded urothelial cells. This technique can particularly be applied to nonneoplastic cases showing extensive urothelial denudation to detect possible malignant cells and/or indeterminate cases to assist to make a more definitive diagnosis.

Authors: Dias Lara , Nóbrega Leandro , Oliveira-Pinto José , Mansilha Armando
Published: September 2024

Introduction and Objective
Impact of chronic anticoagulation on endoleak risk after EVAR has been conflicting. Our aim was to assess how anticoagulation at time of EVAR can impact endoleak risk after EVAR.
 
Methods
A retrospective review of all patients submitted to elective EVAR for infra-renal abdominal aortic aneurysms from January 2018 to December 2021 was performed. Patients with isolated iliac aneurysms, complex repair (F/BEVAR) or presenting with rupture or symptomatic aneurysms were excluded. Patient demographics, procedural and post-operative outcomes were reviewed. Outcomes were defined according the SVS Reporting standards for endovascular aortic aneurysm repair. Primary endpoint was the impact of chronic anticoagulation type II EL after EVAR. Post-operative complications and reinterventions were also addressed. Survival analysis was preferred to compare endoleak occurrence among groups. Cox regression was performed to evaluated independent anticoagulation effect on type II EL occurrence.
 
Results
A total of 99 patients were identified, with 19 (19.2%) of these on chronic oral anticoagulation at time of EVAR. All anticoagulated patients were male and were older than non-anticoagulated patients (mean age 76.4 ±8.5 vs 71.4 ± 7.9, p=0.017). Patients on oral anticoagulation were more likely to have cardiac arrythmia, with no other differences regarding baseline comorbidities. There were no differences in type of anaesthesia or intra-operative complications. Four patients on anticoagulation were submitted to an additional procedure in the first 30-day (21.1% vs 7.5%, p=0.096). Mean follow-up was 18,9 ± 15,25 months. During follow-up, a total of 10 patients developed type II endoleak (EL): four patients in the anticoagulation group (21,1%), vs 6 non-anticoagulated patients (7,5%), p=0.032). After adjustment for age and gender, anticoagulated patients were at greater risk for type II EL (HR: 8.92, CI95% 1.65-48.12, p=0,011). Three-year overall survival was worst for anticoagulated patients, 49,1% vs 87,7%, p=<0.001.
 
Conclusions
Chronic oral anticoagulation at time of EVAR might bring an increased risk in the development of type 2 endoleak, even after adjusting for age and gender, which did not translate in more reinterventions during follow-up. Survival of anticoagulated patients was worst, which may be related to the underlying cause for anticoagulation or to adverse events of this therapy.

Published: September 2024

This research explores the communication dynamics in absurd fashion, focusing on the sender-receiver model through Instagram captions and designs. Findings reveal that absurd fashion predominantly communicates through the sender-receiver model, where designers convey messages or critiques through their creations, and consumers interpret them accordingly. The axis of communication in absurd fashion revolves around issues such as, vegetables, and health, reflecting critiques, awareness campaigns, and shifts towards sustainability. Innovative material use, such as vegetables, fruits, and eco-friendly alternatives, displays the industry's commitment to sustainability and environmental awareness. Absurd fashion is a venue for societal analysis and action, in addition to being a means of self-expression. By embracing absurdity in fashion, designers and customers participate in a conversation that goes beyond aesthetics to address important societal and environmental issues. This research focuses light on fashion's transformational power as a communication medium, emphasizing the significance of understanding the ethical and social ramifications of design decisions in the modern fashion world

Authors:   Altai State Humanitarian and Pedagogical University named after V.M. Shukshina, Kobyzev Nikolay
Published: September 2024

The article deals with the problems of creating networks of routes for the successful differentiation of the tourist centers of Altai by functional elements. Based on the results of the analysis of existing attractors for tourism and their geography, the features of creating networks of tourist routes in the Altai region are revealed. One of the results of the work was the consideration of the scalability phenomenon when creating an optimal network of routes for the region within the Altai Republic, as well as the southern part of the Altai Territory in the area of its foothill and mountainous parts. The differentiation of service areas of tourist centers in the study was carried out along the administrative boundaries of the regions, in some cases - along mountain ranges separated by wide river valleys and watersheds. The paper proposes a model for constructing a destination complex: a tourist center - an administrative district subordinate to it - a complex of attractors. A “tourist center” is a locality where catering and accommodation organizations, tourist administrations, tourist information or visitor centers, as well as control and rescue services are located. „Subordinate administrative regions“ are administrative regions that include mountain ranges, plateaus, hills or plains within their borders, on which there is a dense network of various tourist destinations that are integral parts of mountain, water, walking and horse routes. On the territory of these regions there are „attractors“ - systems of geographical (lakes, rivers, remnants, peaks, passes, water structures, waterfalls, rapids) and cultural and historical (archaeological and ethnographic) objects.

Strigolactones (SLs) are plant hormones with significant roles in plant growth, development and environmental interactions. SLs were first discovered to stimulate the germination of parasitic plants such as Striga and Orobanche, but they have now been revealed to regulate a variety of physiological processes in plants. Since their detection as germination stimulants, SLs have received a lot of attention for their several activities in controlling shoot branching, stress responses and symbiotic interactions with beneficial microorganisms. This review examines recent bioinformatics approaches to evaluating SLs and their receptors. By thoroughly exploring the significance of SLs in plant biology, this article highlights the potential for interdisciplinary research to fully use SLs in agriculture and other applications.

Introduction: Stabbing is the predominant form of homicidal violence globally, resulting in both physical impairment and death. A stab wound is the result of a forceful push from a sharp or blunt pointed object, resulting in a wound that is deeper than it is length.
Case presentation: We present a case of a man who was found dead after being stabbed with a sharp weapon by his partner in a public area, with an open wound on the left chest. A forensic expert identified the body at Dr. Soetomo General Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia. On external examination, we found 23 open wounds on several anatomical regions. Vital injuries include an open wound on the right side of the neck and the back of both sides of the chest. In an internal examination, we found both lungs looked shrunken, and blood was found in the right and left chest cavities. The stab wound to the right back penetrated the right lower lung and right liver lobe. The stab wound to the left back penetrated the lower left lung.
Conclusion: A complete autopsy is vital to determine the cause, mechanism, and manner of death and to reconstruct the events before death.

The impact of MES digital technology on the digitalization of the quality management System (QMS): A case study
Authors: Antić Slobodan
Published: September 2024

The concept of Industry 4.0 involves the use of modern digital technologies for the radical transformation of products, services, processes, and people to improve the performance of work processes. The development of digital technologies in manufacturing, especially the implementation of MES (Manufacturing Execution System) as a digital technology in production, provides a strong impetus for the development of Quality Management Systems (QMS). The integration of MES and QMS systems creates the prerequisites for the digital transformation of quality management methods and techniques in production. Difficulties in creating an effective QMS using digital technologies lie in the lack of integration of modern quality management methods with existing software products. In most ready-made solutions, quality management (QM) is limited to controlling process parameters (heat, pressure, fluid levels...) and product quality in terms of monitoring the functional characteristics of products. In a digital QMS, it is additionally necessary to enable automatic registration and recording of process and product parameters with real-time data analysis in accordance with established procedures and instructions, and to provide the ability to influence and control the quality of the production process in real time. In this context, this paper aims to explore, through a case study in the production of cosmetic products, how MES digital technology impacts the digitization of the QMS and how it contributes to the digital transformation of the organization.

Published: September 2024

This study aims to examine elementary mathematics teachers' attitudes towards mathematical modelling in terms of various variables. The current study is particularly important as it is one of the few ones in our country to investigate this type of work, focusing on the attitudes of elementary mathematics teachers towards mathematical modelling across all sub-dimensions. A survey model, one of the quantitative research methods, was used, and the sample of the study consisted of 102 elementary mathematics teachers working at official secondary schools and official imam hatip secondary schools in Aydın province during the 2023-2024 academic year, determined through an appropriate sampling method. The Mathematical Modelling Attitude Scale was used as the data collection tool in the study. The research revealed that elementary mathematics teachers exhibit a low level of attitude towards mathematical modelling. Although their motivation sub-dimension towards mathematical modelling was high, the real-life sub-dimension was moderate, while the constructivism and understanding sub-dimensions were low. However, it was found that the sub-dimension and overall scores of the mathematical modelling attitude scale of elementary mathematics teachers did not differ according to gender, faculty of graduation, age, and professional experience, but they did differ according to level of education.

Published: September 2024

With the emergence of individuals with different characteristics with the developing age and the shaping of needs in these directions, approaches in education and training processes are diversifying. One of these approaches is the differentiated instruction approach based on individual learning differences. In our study; to reveal the change process of differentiated instruction approach from past to present, studies published in English and Turkish languages were examined according to various variables and it was aimed to compare them according to foreign and domestic perspectives. The research data consisted of Turkish and English articles published on differentiated instruction approaches between 2006 and 2023. The data were obtained from reliable sources by searching the Google Scholar database for Turkish articles and the Web of Science database for English studies. Document analysis, one of the qualitative research designs, was preferred as the research design and the data were analyzed by descriptive analysis method. As a result of the research, it was observed that more teacher-oriented and process-planning studies were conducted in English, while more student-oriented process-planning was observed in Turkish studies. Based on these results, it is recommended that researchers conduct studies with groups such as parents and administrators to observe the effects of the process on different data groups.
Investigation of Middle School Students' Attitudes towards Mathematics Course in the Context of Different Variables (Eskişehir-Türkiye Case)
Authors: Özen Emin , Çıray Özkara Funda
Published: September 2024

It is believed that students' motivation and emotions have an important role in their understanding of mathematics teaching. In this context, this study aims to investigate middle school students' attitudes towards mathematics lessons in the light of various variables. A quantitative cross-sectional survey approach was used in the design of the study. It was tried to understand how these variables affect students' attitudes towards mathematics. In the study, various variables such as gender, grade level, school type, technology use, use of concrete materials/activities in lessons and use of Education Information Network (EBA), an online platform for distance education, were taken into consideration. According to the findings of the study, students' attitudes towards mathematics lessons are positively affected by educational policies, curriculum designs and the creation of concrete materials and activities in the classroom. In particular, a detrimental change was observed in the attitudes of students who used EBA less. The perspective provided by this study is crucial for understanding middle school students' attitudes about mathematics in learning environments. It is also recommended that the study be extended to cover more samples and regions, as the findings can serve as a basis for further research.

Integrating Ethics Into Instructional Design Courses and Curricula
Authors: Moore Stephanie L. , Tillberg-Webb Heather K.
Published: September 2024

Ethics can be intentionally interwoven into introductory instructional design (ID) courses and ID practice without significant additional work through a reframing of foundational content and grounding of the role of an instructional designer as a designer as a “reflective practitioner.” In reviewing the literature on ethics, casting a net widely to include literature on critical approaches to technology, we identified three major themes both within instructional design and technology (IDT) and in other design- and technology-oriented disciplines such as engineering on practical approaches to ethics. Those themes center around key practices – reflection, interrogation, and design – that designers use to tackle the ethical problems that arise in practice and that are embedded in the fabric of the problem spaces we work in. In our book, Ethics and Educational Technology (Moore & Tillberg-Webb, 2023), we explored these three themes in depth and created Ethics in Practice sections for each chapter with readings, resources, and activities on common ethical problems designers confront, such as accessibility, equity, designing for diverse learners, data rights and privacy, and other considerations. Although ethics are, simply stated, a regular feature of the problems and problem spaces that IDT professionals navigate and seek to address, no model in the field addresses or integrates ethics, even a little (Moore, 2021). We would like to see that change. In this chapter, we will discuss ideas for integrating ethics into the typical instructional design course using an example from one of Heather’s courses where she has woven in ideas from our text alongside Larson & Lockee’s (2020) text, Streamlined ID. We conclude with ideas for ethics across the IDT curriculum where ethical considerations can be incorporated and the implicit ethos of a method or area of study made more explicit.
