Inventory of lichen and bryophyte communities in the Yeon Unit of Lewis and Clark National Historical Park: Final report
Authors:   Siskiyou BioSurvey, LLC
Published: December 2023

The 106-acre Yeon Unit of Lewis and Clark National Historic Park lies along the immediate coast eight miles north of Seaside, Oregon. The primary objective of these surveys was to capture the complete lichen and bryophyte flora of the Yeon property with focus on the remnant prairies and the salix swamp, report on any rare species observed or collected, and document the extent and population size of the rare lichen, Pannaria rubiginosa. Surveys were conducted in December 2021 and January 2022. While this report sufficiently characterizes the lichen and bryophyte flora of the Yeon property, it is not sufficient for the Sunset property. For a complete list of the non-vascular flora of the Sunset property, a more intentional survey should be conducted.

Of the 46 bryophyte species recorded, none of them are considered rare by ORBIC. The species checklist reflects a bryoflora typical of Pacific Northwest coastal dune ecosystems. The collection of Dicranum rhabdocarpum needs to be verified as it is rare in Oregon and there is low confidence in the species level determination of it. The invasive moss, Camplylopus introflexus, was found throughout the site in impacted areas especially where fire management had been conducted. This moss should be monitored as it has spread throughout most areas of the dune and may displace native bryophytes and complicate ecological succession in fire/restoration areas.

Lichens were found throughout the 106-acre Yeon unit, although in varying density and diversity. The fore dunes adjacent to the open sand area of the coast historically hosted the coastal prairie habitat but now this area was almost completely infested with the invasive beachgrasses Ammophila arenaria and A. breviligulata. In this area these xerophytic Ammophila species occupied nearly 100% of the terrestrial habitat and there were no trees or shrubs to provide arboreal lichen habitat. There were a few small patches of remnant prairie within the swaths of Ammophila spp. that were generally smaller than 10m?. In these areas the lichens were dominated by Cladonia, Peltigera and Scytinium species.

In general, the shore pine habitat that has not been recently thinned had a dense canopy and therefore the surveyable lichen habitat had very low rates of lichen colonization. The exceptions were the areas with edge effects. The west side facing the foredunes hosted a few arboreal species. Light gaps within this forest had minimal arboreal and terrestrial species colonization. Thinned shore pine plantations had a slightly higher concentration of species richness and increased biomass due to the abundance of light that penetrates to the surveyable habitat. These were limited to fairly common species in genera such as Hypogymnia, Platismatia, and Usnea. The area with the richest lichen diversity was in the interdunal wetland and willow swamp areas. These habitats had rich and well developed cyanolichen communities.

Authors: Purba Djuli Sjafei , Tarigan Vitryani , Tarigan Wico Jontarudi
Published: December 2023

Transparansi dan akuntabilitas adalah dua dari tujuh prinsip manajemen keuangan. Oleh karena itu maka laporan keuangan keuangan harus menganut prinsip tersebut baik laporan keuangan organisasi bisnis maupun organisasi nirlaba. Laporan keuangan yang telah manganut prinsip transparan dan akuntabilitas berdampak terhadap keberlanjutan organisasi. Para stake holder dapat mudah memahami dan memberikan kepercayaan yang tinggi terhadap pembacanya, sehingga laporan keuangan dapat dijadikan sebuah dasar untuk mengambil langkah atau menetapkan berbagai program. Secara khusus laporan keuangan organisasi nirlaba seperti gereja, masjid dan organisasi sosial lainnya yang nota bene sumber pendapatannya adalah berasal dari sumbangan anggota organisasi. Semakin tinggi tingkat kepercayaan maka berpotensi semakin besar sumbangan yang akan diberikan oleh anggota. Namun dalam rangka terwujudnya laporan keuangan yang transparan dan akuntabel dibutuhkan sistim informasi akuntansi yang memadai. Sistim informasi akuntansi yang baik tercermin dari berbagai dokumen yang dilahirkan yang dapat merekam seluruh transaksi yang terjadi di dalam organisasi. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Gerja Kristen Protestan Simalungun (GKPS) Hosianna. Hasil observasi menunjukkan terdapat banyak kegiatan ibadah yang terjadi di lingkup gereja dan rumit nya aliran kas. Setiap kegiatan ibadah terdapat pengumpulan dana. Penelitian ini dimulai dari mengidentifikasi berbagai kegiatan ibadah yang ada, merancang formulir sebagai media untuk merekam data keuangan yang terjadi, dan selanjutnya menyusun laporan keuangan berdasarkan Pernyataan Standar Akuntansi Keuagan (PSAK) 45. Hasil yang didapat dari penelitian ini yaitu terciptanya 19 formulir yang diberi nama formulir Hos-01 sampai Hos-19 dan berdasarkan data yang direkam di dalam formulir tersebut disusunlah laporan keuangan yang mengacu pada proses akuntansi. Laporan keuangan yang dilahirkan adalah laporan posisi keuangan, laporan aktivitas, laporan arus kas dan  catatan atas laporan keuangan

Authors: Миронов М.Ю.
Published: December 2023

Работа посвящена управлению динамическими свойствами конструкций, нагрузка на которые задается в виде спектра силового или инерционного воздействия. Согласно положениям линейной спектральной теории, суммарный квазистатический спектральный отклик балки есть квадратичная комбинация активных собственных форм, взвешенных зависящими от вида нагрузки амплитудными коэффициентами. На основе рассмотренных в работах [1]-[2] матричных зависимостей анализа чувствительности определяются производные от спектрального отклика кусочно-призматической балки по параметрам проектирования. Используется МКЭ в варианте метода перемещений для плоской балочной модели, аналитические методы получения производных от частот, форм колебаний и нестационарных откликов, метод для комбинации модальных откликов как корня из суммы квадратов [7]. Для модели балки с большим числом КЭ выполнено сравнение распределения спектрального отклика и интегрально осредненного нестационарного отклика [3].

The work is devoted to the control of the dynamic properties of structures, the load on which is set in the form of a spectrum of force or inertia effects. According to the provisions of linear spectral theory, the total quasi-static spectral response of a beam is a quadratic combination of active eigenforms weighted by amplitude coefficients depending on the type of load. On the basis of the matrix dependencies of sensitivity analysis considered in [1]-[2], the derivatives of the spectral response of a piecewise prismatic beam are determined according to the design parameters. The FEM is used in a variant of the displacement method for a flat beam model, analytical methods for obtaining derivatives of frequencies, waveforms and non-stationary responses, a method for combining modal responses as the root of the sum of squares [7]. For a beam model with a large number of QE, a comparison of the distribution of the spectral response and the integrally averaged nonstationary response was performed [3].

В работе рассмотрено напряженно-деформированного состояния толстостенной полимерной сферической оболочки, находящейся под внутренним давлением. Отмечается, в связи с нелинейностью задачи, неприменимость «котельных» формул. Получена аппроксимация радиальных перемещений (квадратичный полином) и тангенциальных напряжений (гиперболическая зависимость) в зависимости от отношения толщины оболочки к ее радиусу. Проведены расчеты прочности и устойчивости сферического сосуда диаметром 1.6 метра, находящегося под внутренним давлением. Сравнение полученных результатов по аналитическим зависимостям (объемная задача теории упругости) и численным, выполненных по методу конечного элемента с пятью конечными элементами по толщине в расчетной модели, выявило прекрасную согласованность. Отмечается необходимость при расчете конкретных объектов обращать особое внимание на зоны с концентрацией напряжений. Показана возможность потери устойчивости толстостенной полимерной сферической оболочки, даже находящейся под внутренним давлением.

The paper considers the stress-strain state of a thick-walled polymer spherical shell under internal pressure. It is noted, due to the nonlinearity of the problem, the inapplicability of "boiler" formulas. An approximation of radial displacements (quadratic polynomial) and tangential stresses (hyperbolic dependence) depending on the ratio of the thickness of the shell to its radius is obtained. Calculations of the strength and stability of a spherical vessel with a diameter of 1.6 meters, which is under internal pressure, are carried out. Comparison of the results obtained by analytical dependencies (the volumetric problem of the theory of elasticity) and numerical, performed by the finite element method with five finite elements in thickness in the computational model, revealed excellent consistency. It is noted that it is necessary to pay special attention to zones with stress concentration when calculating specific objects. The possibility of loss of stability of a thick-walled polymer spherical shell, even under internal pressure.

Published: December 2023

Aim: Non-healing wounds are one of the most substantial and difficult problems to treat. Wound healing involves a sequence of complex biological processes, but often the oral cavity microbiota adversely affects healing and forms a chronic non-healing wound. Methods: In this study, a biologically active membrane (BAM) is present, consisting of decellularized human amniotic membrane and bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs). The efficacy of BAM was evaluated in a model of non-healing oral wounds in rats with streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes mellitus. Results: Studies have shown that BAM enhanced the healing of chronic oral wounds in animals with induced diabetes mellitus, reduced scarring, and reduced risk of infection. Paracrine freeze-dried BMSCs stimulated angiogenesis and improved wound conditions. Conclusions: BMSCs may lower glucose levels in rats with STZ-induced diabetes mellitus and improve the healing process of chronic diseases. However, more studies are needed to study the paracrine factors of BMSCs and their role in the treatment of non-healing wounds.

Abstract— Information technology that is currently developing is utilized in various fields such as education, health and others. One of them is hypothermia in infants. Hypothermia is a condition when the baby's temperature is below normal. It is also not uncommon for someone who sees their child to have some symptoms to seek information about the disease their child is suffering from from people around them or the internet media. When a person is suspicious of a child suffering from hypothermia, then that person needs to confirm the illness his child is suffering from. So that someone who wants to make sure the disease suffered by his child tends to go to the doctor. The problems that occur are costs and places far from home. The purpose of this research was to apply the Certainty Factor method to diagnose hypothermia and to make an expert system application for diagnosing hypothermia using the Certainty Factor approach. The results of the level of confidence based on the symptoms found from hypothermia were obtained using the Certainty Factor method, which was 96.08%. With this system, it is hoped that it will help parents determine the disease their child is suffering from, namely Hypothermia without having to see a doctor for initial treatment.

Published: December 2023

Narcotics, psychotropics, and addictive substances are drugs that can activate brain systems, affect dopamine levels, and cause addiction. In Indonesia, there is a law requiring drug addicts to receive treatment and care. To properly treat a drug addict, it is first necessary to determine the level of addiction. Data mining methods such as clustering can be used to assess a user's level of drug addiction.  This study uses the clustering algorithms Fuzzy C-means, K-Medoids, and K-means. The performance of the three clustering algorithms will then be evaluated based on the average similarity of clusters. Data such as how many types of drugs that used, the length of time they were used, the psychiatric status, and the physical condition status, are used. Clustering was accomplished using the data mining software RStudio. The clustering algorithms were then evaluated with the Davies Bouldin Index (DBI). The K-Medoids algorithm was found to have the best average similarity value of cluster for determining drug users' addiction levels based on the results of the analysis.

Published: December 2023

Pancreatic transplantation is considered by the American Diabetes Association and the European Association for the Study of Diabetes an acceptable surgical procedure in patients with type 1 diabetes also undergoing kidney transplantation in pre-final or end-stage renal disease if no contraindications are present. Pancreatic transplantation, however, is a complex surgical procedure and may lead to a range of postoperative complications that can significantly impact graft function and patient outcomes. Postoperative computed tomography (CT) is often adopted to evaluate perfusion of the transplanted pancreas, identify complications and as a guide for interventional radiology procedures. CT assessment after pancreatic transplantation should start with the evaluation of the arterial Y-graft, the venous anastomosis and the duodenojejunostomy. With regard to complications, CT allows for the identification of vascular complications, such as thrombosis or stenosis of blood vessels supplying the graft, the detection of pancreatic fluid collections, including pseudocysts, abscesses, or leaks, the assessment of bowel complications (anastomotic leaks, ileus or obstruction), and the identification of bleeding. The aim of this pictorial review is to illustrate CT findings of surgical-related complications after pancreatic transplantation. The knowledge of surgical techniques is of key importance to understand postoperative anatomic changes and imaging evaluation. Therefore, we first provide a short summary of the main techniques of pancreatic transplantation. Then, we provide a practical imaging approach to pancreatic transplantation and its complications providing tips and tricks for the prompt imaging diagnosis on CT.
Hotspots and frontiers of the relationship between gastric cancer and depression: A bibliometric study
Authors: Liu Jia-Yu , Zheng Ji-Qi , Yin Cheng-Liang , Tang Wen-Pei , Zhang Jian-Ning
Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND

A significant relationship between gastric cancer (GC) and depression has been found in the last 20 years. However, there is no comprehensive information that helps researchers find popular and potential research directions on GC and depression.

AIM

To determine the research status and hotspots by bibliometric analysis of relevant publications on the relationship between GC and depression.

METHODS

We used the Web of Science Core Collection to search and collate the literature on GC and depression from 2000 to 2022 on 31 May, 2023. Then, visualization analysis was performed using VOSviewer software (version 1.6.19) and the Bibliometrix package in R software.

RESULTS

We retrieved 153 pertinent publications from 2000 to 2022. The annual publication count showed an overall upward trend. China had the most prominent publications and significant contributions to this field (n = 64, 41.83%). Before 2020, most studies focused on “the effect of GC on the development and progression of depression in patients.” The latest research trends indicate that “the effect of depression on the occurrence and development of GC and its mechanism” will receive more attention in the future.

CONCLUSION

The study of “the effect of depression on the occurrence and development of GC and its mechanism” has emerged as a novel research theme over the past two years, which may become a research hotspot in this field. This study provides new insights into the hotpots and frontiers of the relationship between GC and depression, potentially guiding researchers toward hot research topics in the future.
THE IMPORTANCE OF MORAL EDUCATION IN THE FORMATION OF CHILDREN'S CHARACTER
Authors: Hafizi Zainul
Published: December 2023

This study aims to explore the central role of moral education in the process of character formation of children. Through a literature review review, we investigate the basic and theoretical concepts of moral education, as well as its positive impact on children's character development. An in-depth analysis of the literature shows that moral education includes not only moral norms, but also builds ethical values, empathy, and social responsibility. The research also highlights the linkages between moral education, the moral development of individuals, and their contribution to society more broadly. The results of this study are expected to provide a solid theoretical foundation for further understanding of the importance of moral education in shaping children's character.
Enseignement de l’histoire au Québec : analyse curriculaire sur la problématisation au secondaire
Authors: Boutonnet Vincent
Published: December 2023

Cette étude descriptive vise à comparer les programmes québécois d’histoire au secondaire en ce qui concerne la problématisation. La problématisation est une approche essentielle à la démarche historienne et est recommandée pour l’enseignement afin de développer une attitude critique envers l’histoire. La problématisation est polysémique et offre une diversité d’assises théoriques qui pourraient conduire à différentes pratiques d’enseignement. Nous proposons une analyse combinée (descriptive, lexicométrique et thématique) des programmes. Les programmes québécois n’échappent pas à la polysémie de la problématisation et en prescrivent des éléments superficiels et diffus. En effet, il y a non seulement une différence dans le traitement de la problématisation entre les trois programmes du secondaire, mais également entre les documents curriculaires d’un même programme. La formation initiale et continue du personnel enseignant conditionne probablement la mobilisation de la problématisation en classe, car la superficialité des programmes implique des prérequis théoriques qui ne sont pour le moment pas manifestes dans les pratiques ordinaires en classe d’histoire au secondaire.

Background. Most of our colleagues, upon discovering injuries to the glenoid labrum or other soft tissue structures of the shoulder joint in a patient, perform surgical interventions without paying attention to changes in its capsule. Objective: to compare the treatment outcomes of patients with shoulder contracture who underwent arthroscopic capsular release with re-fixation of the glenoid labrum versus those who underwent only re-fixation of the glenoid labrum.

Materials and methods: The study included 98 patients with shoulder joint stiffness and glenoid labrum injury. The patients were divided into two groups: group 1 underwent re-fixation of the glenoid labrum and arthroscopic capsular release, while group 2 underwent re-fixation of the glenoid labrum without arthroscopic capsular release.

Results: Three months after the operation, in group 2, the mean functional outcome according to the Constant Shoulder Score scale was slightly worse than in group 1 and ranged from 14.5 ± 6.2 points, while in group 1, the mean functional outcome was 8.5 ± 6 points (p = 0.031). Six months after the operation, in group 1, the mean functional outcome according to the Constant Shoulder Score scale was 5.1 ± 5.6 points, while in group 2, it was 10.1 ± 4.1 points (p = 0.024). Conclusion: The results of treating patients with secondary shoulder stiffness who underwent arthroscopic capsular release and fixation of the glenoid labrum were better according to the Constant Shoulder Score and the VAS scale at both 3 and 6 months after the operation than the results of treating patients who underwent only fixation of the glenoid labrum without arthroscopic capsular release.

Summary. Road traffic injury remains one of the main causes of injury in the developing countries, although this is also painful in the developed countries. Even there, providing medical care to road accident victims in rural areas is still a challenge.
The aim of the research: to determine and form the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of traffic injuries as a medical and social phenomenon in rural areas.
Materials and methods: Ananalysis of 315 cases of victims who received damage as a result of traffic accidents in rural areas was carried out.
Results and discussion. The main clinical epidemiological characteristics of traffic injuries in rural areas were studied and the presence of essential features of such injuries was established. In rural areas, there is an advantage of the survival rate over the mortality rate in both sex groups in almost the same value – almost 2 times. The dependence of the occurrence of trauma and the outcome of the traumatic process in traffic accident victims on participation in traffic has been proven. Conclusions: 1 An important feature of the clinical epidemiological characteristics of traffic injuries is a very high percentage of people of working age – 71.75%, which is significantly higher than the same indicator in the metropolis – 63.65%. The highest mortality is also observed in persons of working age 31-60 years (36.36%-41.86%).

Summary. The influence of neck torsion and adduction of the head of the talus (T) on the mechanogenesis of congenital flexible flatfoot (CFF) remains as unsufficiently studied issue.

Aim. To examine the torsion of the neck and adduction of the head of the T in normal conditions and CFF.

Material and methods. The study was performed on CT-scans of 36 feet of 20 patients: 17 feet (6 men, 3 women; age 26,9 ± 5 years) met the criteria of CFF, 19 feet (5 men, 6 women; age 31,4 ± 3,6 years) were used as con- trol. The neck torsion angle (NTA), the horizontal angle between the body and the head (body-head angle – BHA) were calculated. In the patients of the experimental group the angle of uncoverage of the head of the T (talo-navicular uncovrage angle – TNUA) was measured on antero-posterior weight-bearing X-ray. Mean comparisons and cor- relations were calculated using appropriate tests at a significance level 0,05.

Results. It was established that there was no significant difference between the averages charac- terizing the NTA in the norm [45,7 ± 1,4; CI 95 % (43; 48,4)] and in patients with CFF [47,7 ± 1; CI 95 % (45,8; 49,6)] (p = 0,25), instead BHA in the norm [14,7 ± 1,2; CI 95 % (12,3; 17,1)] was significantly different from that in patients with CFF [18,8 ± 1,3; CI 95 % (16,3; 21,3)] (p = 0,02). A relationship of medium strength (R = 0,5 at p = 0,05) was established between BHA and TNUA. Conclusion. A correlation of medium strength (R = 0,5) between BHA and TNUA may indicate the influence of the medial deviation of the head of the T on the instability of the peritalar zone.
An analysis of convergence of hybridized approximation techniques for the analytical solution of partial differential equations
Authors: Ebiwareme Liberty , Bunonyo Kubugha Wilcox , Nwokorie. Obinna
Published: December 2023

In this paper, we use the hybridization of two well-known semi-analytical methods to obtain the numerical solutions for some special linear and nonlinear partial differential equations that are predominant in most physical science disciplines. The first among these methods is the coupling of Laplace transform and Adomian decomposition method (LADM) while the second method is standard Homotopy perturbation method with Laplace transform method (HPTM). The accuracy and dependability of these proposed techniques is confirmed by applying them to solve linear and nonlinear Kleidon-Gordon equations, linear transverse equation of a vibrating beam, homogeneous and inhomogeneous nonlinear PDEs, advection equation, diffusion-convection and Korteweg-DeVries equation. Thereafter, comparison between the solutions obtained by the methods is presented in tables for convergence analysis. Consequently, the findings from our study showed the two methods can be effective alternative approaches for obtaining solutions to linear and nonlinear PDEs and higher-order initial value problems.

Published: December 2023

This study inquired into whether linguistic constituencies have an impact on learner language proficiency. An appropriate approach that was used encompasses qualitative research methods as they permit extracting valuable information from small samples. Underpinning this qualitative inquiry is Participatory Action Research (PAR) with its added advantage of being considered to have an underlying characteristic of engaging with community members in action. The researchers and study participants collaborated to determine the investigated problem, in this case being learner linguistic constituencies in parallel or divergent to language proficiency. Data was gathered from five purposefully nominated English language teachers from one rurally located institution of higher learning in one of the Eastern Cape Education Districts. Semi-structured interviews generated rich thematically analysed data as they contained open-ended types of items. It was divulged by the study that (i) language policy implementation and (ii) teacher training and professional development were the major findings that resulted in experienced challenges with regard to depreciating language proficiency where learners emanated from diversified cultural backgrounds. This paper recommends and concludes that a review of language policies is a dire exercise for consideration, as being a language-proficient learner is tantamount to academic success.
