Authors: Arief Yusuf Al
Published: September 2024

In 1998, 2002, and 2015, Indonesia experienced the worst smog disaster. Not only caused disruption inIndonesia, but the smog also caused problems in neighbouring countries. Most people think that this is the resultof forest fires, but in fact the smog is caused by something else related to peatlands. This must be introduced tothe people of Indonesia and the world so that there is no ongoing misunderstanding. Therefore, the authorsdeveloped an English for Specific Purpose (ESP) textbook related to peatlands and smog. This research isintended to develop a textbook on the relationship between peatlands and smog disasters which will be used forthe educational process related to this matter which will be distributed in the form of textbooks. The methodologyused in this research is Research and Development, where researchers will conduct data and informationcollection qualitatively. Furthermore, the findings will be the basis for the development of textbooks containingmaterial about peatlands and smog. The results showed that the smog that occurred, especially in the Kalimantanarea, was not pure due to the burning of forests for plantation land only. The smog turned out to be caused byburning peatlands where the fire was below the surface of the ground, making it difficult to extinguish and causesmoke to continue to spread for a long time. Root structure and content in peatlands is the main source of smogproblems. This was then used as material for the preparation of English for Specific Purposes textbooks:Peatlands and the Smog Disaster. This research is limited only to peatlands in Kalimantan, smog, and developingtextbooks as an educational tool. Since the focus of this study is only on the peatlands and the smog disasterdeveloped for textbooks as educational reference material, the results of this study can be said to be classifiedas new research and have a high urgency to be carried out.

Authors: Khan Muhammad S. , Suhartono Antonius W. , Auerkari Elza I.
Published: September 2024

Abstract: Dental trauma is a common occurrence in forensic investigations and may provide important clues about the amount of damages and when they occurred, both of which are vital in court cases. Forensic pathologists and dentists work hand in hand to assess and diagnose oral injuries accurately, which is crucial for those who are alive and those who have passed away. In order to guarantee accurate forensic results, the need of standardizing procedures used in dental trauma analysis, such as clinical and radiographic tests, and the need of thorough documentation are very crucial. The many kinds of dental injuries, their causes, and how forensic applications help to identify victims and piece together are very important to be discussed. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the importance of dental injury analysis, procedures and their implications in various cases within the scope of forensic odontology for efficient practice, highlighting the vital role of forensic odontology in medico-legal investigations via an in-depth review of the existing literature.

O entre-lugar do sujeito cambiante em o antigo futuro de Luiz Ruffato
Authors: Da Silva Lucas Neiva
Published: September 2024

The novel The Old Future by Luiz Ruffato presents a refined narrative, both from a linguistic perspective — as is characteristic of the writer, since the acclaimed They Were Many Horses — and in terms of the literary representation of socially marginalized groups, thus exposing unhealed wounds in society. Additionally, the plot includes political events and social crises that reveal the complex scene of Brazilian life from the 20th century to the early decades of the 21st century. The book tells the story of four men from the Bortoletto family, who, coming from Italy, settled in Rodeiro-MG and sent descendants to Cataguases-MG, São Paulo, and the USA. The one hundred chapters refer to the one hundred years of this saga, marked by family fragmentation, ruptures, disillusions, and a constant state of uprootedness.

Authors: Ribas Villasanti Débora , Teotonio do Nascimento Daniel
Published: September 2024

The objective of this study was to evaluate how the quality of Technical Vocational Education was established in Brazil from the Law of Directives and Bases of National Education (LDB) nº 9394/96, through a Systematic Review (RS) of the scientific production of the last 10 years. Twenty-four articles from the CAPES Periodicals Portal were analyzed. The results showed the participation of several actors from different segments in the process of developing the quality of technical professional education and with different interests. The principles of professional education proved to be diverse and overlapping, however, work as an educational principle, and work for the labor market stood out. Regarding the attributes, it was not possible to find in the research’s attributes indicated for Technical Professional Education. As for the potential of technical professional education, most of them are aimed at training for the job market and a tiny portion for polytechnic training. As for the limitations of Vocational Education, these were directed to the lack of Public Policies aimed at different curricula of Vocational Education and High School, the structural duality between both and social inequality. Regarding the indicator, the only one found in the research was IDEB. It is concluded that the quality of technical professional education was instituted through training totally focused on the qualification of labor to meet the labor market, thus excluding the subject from receiving an emancipatory training.

A meningite pneumocócica é uma infecção grave do sistema nervoso central, normalmente caracterizada por febre, rigidez de nuca e alterações no nível de consciência. Este relato descreve o caso de um paciente masculino de 21 anos que apresentou um quadro atípico de meningite pneumocócica com erupção cutânea petequial, uma manifestação clinicamente semelhante à meningococcemia. A presença de lesões petequiais inicialmente sugeriu meningococcemia, mas a biópsia de pele revelou cocos gram-positivos, e a falta de resposta ao tratamento com Ceftriaxona levou à introdução de Vancomicina, resultando em melhora clínica. O caso destaca a necessidade de considerar diagnósticos diferenciais em apresentações atípicas de meningite e a importância da adaptação rápida da terapêutica com base na evolução clínica e nos achados laboratoriais.

Resumo Fundamento: A Cardiomiopatia Chagásica Crônica (CCC) é causada por um processo inflamatório induzido pelo Trypanosoma cruzi, que leva à miocardite com fibrose reativa e reparativa. A CCC progride com alterações de perfusão miocárdica e eventos histopatológicos que afetam a Aptidão Cardiorrespiratória (ACR). Objetivos: Avaliamos os efeitos do Treinamento Físico Aeróbico (TFA) na perfusão miocárdica e nos comprometimentos morfológicos e funcionais relacionados à inflamação e fibrose em hamsters sírios com CCC. Como objetivo secundário, analisamos as áreas de secção transversa do músculo esquelético. Métodos: Hamsters com CCC e seus respectivos controles foram divididos em quatro grupos: CCC sedentário, CCC-TFA, controle sedentário e controle TFA. Sete meses após a infecção, os animais foram submetidos à ecocardiografia, à cintilografia de perfusão miocárdica e ao teste de esforço cardiopulmonar. TFA de intensidade moderada foi realizado durante cinquenta minutos, cinco vezes por semana, por oito semanas. Posteriormente, os animais foram reavaliados. A análise histopatológica foi realizada após os procedimentos acima mencionados. O nível de significância foi estabelecido em 5% em todas as análises (p<0,05). Resultados: Animais com CCC sedentários apresentaram piores Defeitos de Perfusão Miocárdica (DPM) ao longo do tempo, Fração de Ejeção do Ventrículo Esquerdo (FEVE) reduzida, e apresentaram mais inflamação e fibrose quando comparados aos demais grupos (análise ANOVA mista). Por outro lado, o TFA foi capaz de mitigar a progressão do DPM, atenuar a inflamação e a fibrose e melhorar a eficiência da ACR em animais CCC-TFA. Conclusão: Nosso estudo demonstrou que o TFA melhorou a disfunção cardíaca, DPM e reduziu a inflamação e a fibrose em modelos de hamster com CCC. Além disso, os animais CCC-SED apresentaram atrofia do músculo esquelético, enquanto os animais CCC-TFA apresentaram a AST do músculo esquelético preservada. Compreender os efeitos da TFA nas dimensões fisiopatológicas da CCC é crucial para futuras pesquisas e intervenções terapêuticas.

Abstract Background: Chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy (CCC) is caused by an inflammatory process induced by Trypanosoma cruzi, which leads to myocarditis with reactive and reparative fibrosis. CCC progresses with myocardial perfusion abnormalities and histopathological events that affect cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF). Objectives: We evaluated the effects of aerobic physical training (APT) on myocardial perfusion and on morphological and functional impairments related with inflammation and fibrosis in Syrian hamsters with CCC. As a secondary objective, we analyzed the cross-sectional areas of the skeletal muscle. Methods: Hamsters with CCC and their respective controls were divided into four groups: CCC sedentary, CCC-APT, sedentary control and APT control. Seven months after infection, the animals underwent echocardiography, myocardial perfusion scintigraphy and cardiopulmonary exercise testing. Moderate-intensity APT was performed for fifty minutes, five times a week, for eight weeks. Subsequently, the animals were reassessed. Histopathological analysis was conducted after the above-mentioned procedures. The level of significance was set at 5% in all analyses (p<0.05). Results: CCC sedentary animals presented worse myocardial perfusion defects (MPD) over time, reduced left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF) and showed more inflammation and fibrosis when compared to other groups (mixed ANOVA analysis). Conversely, APT was able to mitigate the progression of MPD, ameliorate inflammation and fibrosis and improve CRF efficiency in CCC-APT animals. Conclusions: Our study demonstrated that APT ameliorated cardiac dysfunction, MPD, and reduced inflammation and fibrosis in CCC hamster models. Additionally, CCC-SED animals presented skeletal muscle atrophy while CCC-APT animals showed preserved skeletal muscle CSA. Understanding APT's effects on CCC's pathophysiological dimensions is crucial for future research and therapeutic interventions.
Can Vocabulary and Grammar Hold the Doorway for College Reading Success? The Case of Arabic Learners of English
Authors:   University of Bahrain  Kingdom of Bahrain, Allaith Zainab
Published: September 2024

Reading is an important skill for college success. This study investigated cognitive predictors of English reading comprehension success among college students whose first language is Arabic. Knowledge of vocabulary/grammar emerged as the strongest predictor of reading success, followed by silent reading fluency, and then decoding skill. However, metacognitive awareness of reading strategies did not statistically significantly contribute to the model. Findings suggest that Arabic speakers draw on their vocabulary and grammar knowledge when tackling an English reading comprehension task, skills that are language specific to L2. Implications include the recommendation for placing the development of college students’ language reservoir at the heart of language programs, and incorporating silent reading fluency and decoding skill within these programs. The finding regarding metacognitive awareness of reading strategies brings into question whether a certain level of language proficiency must be met by language learners before reading strategies begin to contribute to reading comprehension achievement. Keywords: Arabic speakers, Cognitive Model, college reading, decoding skill, EFL, ELL, English language learners, ESL, grammar knowledge, metacognitive awareness of reading strategies, reading comprehension, second and foreign language acquisition, silent reading fluency, vocabulary knowledge

Authors:   Postgraduate Student, Financial University under the Government of Russia, Junior Research Fellow, Central Economics and Mathematics Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Egorov Andrey V.
Published: September 2024

The article develops the approach of evidential modeling by G.B. Kleiner with an emphasis on the third principle (selection of a complete system of premises). The necessity of systematization of premises and construction on its basis of a new classification of models is substantiated. The concept of isotonic curve is introduced as a reflection of a compromise between the degree of parameterization of premises and complexity of the model. Kleiner's subjective approach is supplemented by the introduction of the subject of the user of models and a shift in focus towards taking into account his needs.

The turbulence of the global economy, caused by largescale external influences on it (the COVID19 pandemic, the hybrid war between Russia and the West in Ukraine), poses the task of managing the sustainability of the enterprise, understood from the point of view of international research as resilience, to business owners and their top management. The purpose of this article is to propose an approach to assessing and ensuring the sustainability of a company based on the fuzzylogical formalism of the industry Rlens and the "wind rose" associated with this lens. The Rlens is positioned in the "stability – efficiency" coordinate space and is a fuzzyparabolic function. The stability is analyzed based on the fuzzy logic matrix aggregate calculator (MAC) technology to obtain a stability index (RI) in the range from 0,1 to 0,9. The efficiency of an enterprise is assessed by the return on equity (ROE) indicator. The enterprise is a representative point in the RIROE phase space, which moves along the "wind rose" of 8 main directions. The exit of the imaging point beyond the lens means a loss of stability in a positive or negative value. The distance from the imaging point to the lens boundary characterizes the level of risk of loss of stability: the lower the distance, the higher the risk. Three industry lenses are considered within the framework of the industry conglomerate of the international manufacturing industry: metallurgy (DJ27), mechanical engineering (DK29), light industry (DB). Industry codes comply with the European industry classification standard NASE 1.1. The consequences of the movement of the enterprise's representative point in each main direction within the "wind rose" are assessed. Measures for strategic positioning of enterprises taking into account industry anisotropy are proposed. Strategic positioning of enterprises in relation to industry Rlenses opens up broad opportunities for strategic planning of enterprise activities, while the designated positioning itself is the basis for strategic goalsetting. Behind each planned movement of an enterprise within the "wind rose" there is a set of measures that ensure proper goal achievement. A subsequent transition from the form of a strategic plan to the form of a traditional management budget is expected.

Currently, the issue of finding of new, effective and safe drugs for the topical treatment of mastitis, which combine antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties and, having low bioavailability of active ingredients, do not worsen the quality of milk during and after their use, is very relevant. One of these products is the domestic veterinary drug «Argumistin®». The high effectiveness of the drug is due to the combined action of antibacterial agents, included in its composition – highly dispersed silver particles (colloidal silver) and substances from the group of quaternary ammonium compounds. In the course of the researches, the active components of the drug «Argumistin®» were determined in blood plasma and cow milk, by high-performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometric detection and atomic emission spectroscopy with inductively coupled plasma for various pharmacokinetic studies to remove the active components of the drug «Argumistin®» from the mammalian body. The low bioavailability of the active components of the drug "Argumistin®" - miramistin and colloidal silver, has been proven, which makes it possible to use it in the treatment of subclinical mastitis in cows without culling meat and dairy products.

Fats and oils are one of the most important components of compound feed for poultry. Their importance is determined by the ability to accumulate energy in the body, as lipids are structural components of biological membranes. Therefore, it is necessary to use lipid feed additives and phospholipid preparations. Optimal doses of the phospholipid preparation – lipofos, a by-product of soy lecithin production, have been established for laying hens. Hepatoprotective properties of the studied drug were established, which are manifested by the restoration of the histostructure of bird liver cells. An increase in egg production of laying hens and an improvement in product quality were also noted.

Neutrophils in cattle share similarities with neutrophils from other species in terms of their activation mechanisms, migration into tissues, modulation of immune responses, and destruction of pathogenic microorganisms. Cytochemical diagnostic methods are used to assess the activity of neutrophil granulocytes. These methods are characterized by the simplicity of reaction setup, reproducibility, and the ability to determine the quantitative content of the substance under investigation in the cell or the activity of the enzyme based on the intensity of staining and the amount of stained material. Immunocytochemical methods are applied both in clinical practice and experimental work. A comparative evaluation of the effectiveness of the methods we selected for studying the mechanisms of bactericidal activity of neutrophils in purulent-inflammatory processes in cattle is necessary for selecting a potential biomarker as a prognostic test for the development of purulent-septic complications in animals.

Agriculture is actively developing in the Leningrad region. The number of farms of various forms of ownership engaged in the breeding of small cattle is increasing. To maintain well-being in farms, it is necessary to carry out planned preventive measures, which include regular testing of animals for helminthiasis. Timely examination of the animal population for invasive diseases and carrying out the necessary treatment leads to the safety of young animals, increased weight gain, resistance to adverse environmental conditions, and a decrease in mortality. According to many authors, the dominant invasions of small cattle are strongylatoses of the gastrointestinal tract. For the most effective deworming, it is necessary to know both the desired timing of its implementation and the level of effectiveness of the drugs used, as a result of which it is necessary to establish the seasonality of infection and the level of infestation of small cattle (sheep and goats) with pathogens from the Strongylata suborder. The research was conducted in the conditions of farms of different forms of ownership (farms and private farms) in the Leningrad region. The objects of the study were small cattle (sheep and goats) of various sex and age groups, and the material was fresh feces taken from the rectum in different seasons of the year for three years. The study of faeces was carried out according to generally accepted methods. To analyze the infection of small cattle (sheep and goats) with strongylatoses of the gastrointestinal tract by month during the year, the average monthly temperature and humidity for 2021, 2022 and 2023 were taken into account. Analyzing the results obtained over three calendar years, it was revealed that the maximum number of infected animals was diagnosed in both the cold and warm seasons of the year. In 2021, in September and October – 81.5% and 67.2% for goats; in October and November – 100% and 66.7% for sheep. In 2022, in August and September – 70.1% and 92.6% for goats; 81.3% and 74.6% for sheep. In 2023, in April, May and September – 100%, 72.7% and 83.2% (for goats); and for sheep in February, April and September – 100%, 66.4% and 73.3%, respectively. An essential role in the timing of larval development in the environment is played by the ambient temperature and the amount of precipitation, which is clearly visible in 2023.

Malaysian cocoa production relied on cocoa farmers since 2006 because they were the major holder (81.4%) of the cocoa cultivation area. As for Sarawak, 100% of cocoa production was from cocoa farmers. Sarawak used to produce 21,200 metric tons of dried cocoa beans in 1990. The government also has spent more on training and fertilizer for cocoa farmers to increase PMCF productivity. However, the production keeps gradually decreasing yearly. In 2021, Sarawak only produced 59 metric tons of dried cocoa beans and the productivity decreased by 10% to 0.19 metric/ton/ha/year compared to 2019 productivity (MCB, 2022). In order to strategies the long-term improvement of cocoa production, this study aims to define the relationship between location, infrastructure, and transportation toward the work performance of Sarawak PMCF. Driven by Iceberg Model, the objectives of this preliminary study are to determine i) the location, infrastructure, and transportation towards work performance levels ii) the relationship between location, infrastructure, and transportation with work performance iii) the most factors (IVs) that contribute more toward work performances. A total number of 35 respondents were involved in this purposive data collection which is only 30% of the sample population of the preliminary study which was 105 PMCF. The sample procedure used the approach of random sampling technique. These 35 respondents were selected involving 3.6% of respondents for each zone population of Sarawak rural areas namely the Northern, Middle, and Southern Coastal Zone. The data was r by IBM SPSS version 25.0. The data were tested by using Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and then analyzed by descriptive, correlation, and regression analysis to answer all objectives. The study found all the variables showed moderate-level indicators. The variables that showed moderate and positive correlation were location and infrastructure. In contrast, location is the most contributing factor to the work performance of PMCF in Sarawak.
