Published: January 2024

Antibiotic resistance currently considered as a global concern mostly impacting low- and middle-income nations and it can be accelerated by antibiotic abuse and other forms of excessive antibiotic use. There is little data on community practices and understanding in Somaliland on antibiotics and antibiotic resistance. To provide evidence-based communication intervention techniques for safer antibiotic use the qualitative study was done from November 1st to December 1st, 2023, and consisted of in-depth semi-structured interviews with adult heads of households in Hargeisa, Somaliland, using purposive and snowball sampling strategies. Participants were chosen from a variety of medical and educational backgrounds. Thematic analysis was used to investigate community knowledge and antibiotic use in the sampled population. To investigate the level of awareness on antibiotic use, 20 respondents (households) were questioned (Table 1). Of these, 17 (85%) became aware of the term antibiotic itself, with 7 (35%) being prescribed by a physician, 9 (45%) receiving laboratory diagnosis when using antibiotics, and 6 (30%) becoming aware of the potential risks associated with improper antibiotic use. This study highlighted the community's lack of understanding about antibiotic use. The majority of the study participants knew the phrase "antibiotic" but had no idea what it meant, the side effect of the antibiotics and other medical science related information regarding how to safely use antibiotics. According to the findings, initiatives for antibiotic stewardship should focus on community education to prevent antibiotic misuse or abuse.

Published: January 2024

In this work we study the intersection properties of a finite disk system in the euclidean space. We accomplish this by utilizing subsets of spheres with varying dimensions and analyze specific points within them, referred to as poles. Additionally, we introduce two applications: estimating the common scale factor for the radii that makes the re-scaled disks intersects in a single point, this is the \v{C}ech scale, and constructing the minimal Axis-Aligned Bounding Box (AABB) that encloses the intersection of all disks in the system.

The modern age offers many challenges in terms of health related physical condition, such as new technologies, fast and stressful lifestyle, unhealthy diets, alarming statistics on physical activity, etc. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic accentuated the existing problems, being necessary to answer the following questions: what is the fitness level of the population? and how important are physical exercises in human life? The purpose of this paper is to monitor the fitness level of a group of students, with the help of a new fitness test system, providing individualized feedback, guidance, or motivation to the subjects. Thus, we applied the new EFB system (European Fitness Badge), that evaluates certain components of physical condition in relation to health (endurance, strength, coordination, flexibility), on a group of 180 students, 78 male (43.3%) and 102 female (56.7%), with the average age m = 23.59 ± 7.38 years, from different specializations within the U.A.V. Arad. The subjects were divided into two groups: beginners - TP1 (N-93) and advanced - TP2 (N-87). The results showed significant differences in most components of overall fitness depending on the test profile (basic or advanced), demografic factors (sex and age), and student’s major (sport, economics, psychology, etc.), a stronger association between ABSI and overall fitness than BMI, and that test profile acts as mediator between demografic factors (sex and age) and fitness abilities. In conclusion this study evidenced tendencies toward differences between the groups of subjects based on the test profile. Also the advanced profile participant scores were higher than those of the basic profile participants. The results reflect as well a lower BMI and ABSI indexes for the advanced profile participants.

Published: January 2024

Opioid use disorder has increased in the world in recent years and Iran ranks first in terms of opium smoking in the world. In fact, opium smoking by traditional methods, in addition to dependence on morphine, is a behavioral addiction in Iran. The body position during opium smoking is usually non-standard and non-ergonomic. Over time, changes in muscle tissue, tendons and ligaments, and the connective tissue go from elasticity to neuromuscular plasticity. This study aims to compare sway back posture and musculoskeletal problems between opium smokers and non-drug users. In this comparative and cross-sectional study, 80 opium smokers were compared with 74 non-drug users in terms of sway angle (sway back posture), and musculoskeletal complaints (NORDIC questionnaire) and the association of possible risk factors was investigated. Data were analyzed by Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Correlation Coefficient and paired-t tests using SPSS version 23. There were significant differences between two groups in terms of sway back posture (P=0.007), and neck (<0.001), upper back (<0.001) and lower back (0.006) musculoskeletal complaints. Homelessness, the lifetime duration of opium smoking (in months), and the duration of daily opium smoking (in minutes) had significant correlation with sway back posture and musculoskeletal complaints. Homelessness was the strongest predictor and had strongest correlation. Overall, an increase in the duration of sitting in non-ergonomic positions could lead to increase in sway angle and sway back posture and increase in musculoskeletal complaints of neck, upper back and lower back due to the non-neutral posture of opium smoking. It seems that plasticity and structural and functional adaptations of the posture occurs due to opium smoking and further studies are recommended.

Published: January 2024

Plants endogenous hormones play an important role in resistance to soil lead (Pb) contamination. In order to explore the response of plant hormones to Pb stress, pot experiment was conducted to analysis the hormones contents, related gene expressions and Pb accumulation of Arabis alpina under Pb treatment and transporter (CAX(cation exchangers), HMA(heavy metal ATPase) and ABC(ATP-binding cassette transporter)) activities under foliage spraying auxin (IAA). The results showed that contents of total Pb and soluble components Pb (vacuoles) in roots and leaves of Arabis alpina increased with increase of Pb treatment concentrations. Compering to 100 mg·kg-1 Pb2+ treatment, Pb contents in soluble components of roots and leaves under 300 mg·kg-1 Pb2+ treatment increased by 896.3% and 238.8%, respectively. The contents of endogenous hormones in leaves and roots increased under Pb treatment concentrations. Comparing to control (0 mg·kg-1 Pb2+ treatment), contents of auxin in roots and leaves under 100 mg∙kg-1 Pb treatment increased by 176.19% and 585.29%, respectively. Auxin contents in xylem saps under 100 and 300 mg∙kg-1 Pb treatments increased by 283.14% and 100.30%, respectively. Gene expression related to auxin transport was up-adjusted. The expressions of three gene related to auxin-repressed 12.5 kDa protein and auxin-responsive GH3 family were down-adjusted. Under foliage spraying IAA, Pb contents in leaves increased by 29.81% and Pb content in symplast sap was higher than that with non spraying IAA treatment. The activities of CAX and HMA in roots of A. alpina increased by 9.62% and 8.79% with foliage spraying IAA treatment, while activity of ABC decreased by 21.94%. In general, contents of auxin and related genes expressions of A. alpina increased under Pb treatment, which enhanced activities of CAX and HMA resulting in Pb translocation through symplast pathway.

An Operating Condition Monitoring and Fault Diagnosis for Transformer Based on Partial Discharge and Artificial Neural Networks
Authors: Chen Fu-Hsien , Shieh Horng-Lin
Published: January 2024

The operation of transformers suffers from natural or man-made disasters, subjecting the equipment to prolonged exposure to temperature, lightning strikes, transient over-voltages, and over-current, gradually producing insulation aging phenomenon, which results in partial discharges within the transformer. Without dealing with it beforehand properly, it may lead to insulation breakdown. Nowadays, with the mature development of microchip control technology and wireless communication technology, which is helpful for realizing the research for online real-time and long-term monitoring capabilities for power equipment. A transformer operating condition monitoring and diagnostic system that can rapidly and effectively prevent the breakdown of transformer insulation, which can impact the overall power supply system is developed in this paper. The system is divided into two parts based on its function. The first part is the operating condition monitoring and real-time alert unit for the transformer, primarily composed of an embedded computing module, a sensor module, and a transmission module. Its work content is to capture real-time online partial discharge ultrasonic signals and high frequency current comparator pulse signals, and analyze and determine the condition of the internal insulation and operational status whether it is fault or not. The second part is the central control unit, consisting mainly of an industrial computer and a transmission module. Its work content is to store the ultrasonic and high frequency current comparator pulse signals from the transformer operation monitoring and real-time alert unit. It uses the software to eliminate signal noise and interference, and then utilizes artificial neural networks to identify the type of fault. In this paper, the research for the phenomenon of insulation degradation in transformer equipment aims to establish aging trend profiles through the dual malfunctioning alert and aging process analysis, as well as the long-term measurement of ultrasonic signals from partial discharges and high-frequency current comparator pulse signals. This approach provides crucial reference data and a foundation for disposable on-site measurement, assessing the phenomenon of insulation aging stages, defects and damage of the transformers effectively. It allows for timely replacement or maintenance in advance, achieving the prevention of malfunctioning and predictive diagnosis of aging.
A Geometric and Visual Perspective on the Four Color Map Theorem and K5 Non-Planarity and Their Connection
Authors: Shukla Chandan Kumar
Published: January 2024

This paper offers a novel geometric and visual approach to the renowned Four Color Map Theorem and K5 non-planarity problem while unveiling their profound connection to the "kissing number" problem in 2D. We represent planar graphs through circles and tangents, simplifying complex structures and shedding light on these classic problems. Our proofs by contradiction, rooted in the kissing number concept, reveal that both the Four Color Map Theorem and K5 non-planarity are fundamentally linked, as they pivot around the concept of coloring. This study bridges the realms of geometry and graph theory, providing fresh insights and emphasizing the significance of the kissing number problem in various fields.

Romancing the University: BIPOC Scholars in Romance Novels in the 1980s and now
Authors: Kamble Jayashree
Published: January 2024

English-language mass-market romance novels written by BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) writers and starring BIPOC protagonists are a small but important group. This article is a comparative analysis of how recent representations of diversity in this sub-set of the genre, specifically the character of the Black academic and the language of racial justice, compare with the first group of BIPOC novels that were published in 1984 (Sandra Kitt’s Adam and Eva and All Good Things as well as Barbara Stephens’s A Toast to Love). In Adrianna Herrera’s American Love Story (2019), Katrina Jackson’s Office Hours (2020), and Talia Hibbert’s Take a Hint, Dani Brown (2020), the authors deploy the academic protagonists and setting to stage the intersections of gender, queerness, race, class, and immigrant histories, particularly as they manifest in academia, the supposed haven of free thought. In contrast to the 1984 BIPOC academic romantic protagonist, the more recent incarnation voices the cost that racism and sexism imposes even on seemingly successful people of color and articulates the structural changes and reparative policies that must be adopted for true equity.
«Clueless» (1995) and «Emma.» (2020) in Dialogue: the Postfeminist and the Fourth-Wave Feminist Heroine in Austen Adaptations
Authors: García Muñoz María
Published: January 2024

This article explores the pervasive influence of Jane Austen’s novel Emma (1815) and its adaptability to contemporary contexts. It examines the portrayal of Austen’s protagonists in two film adaptations, Cher in Clueless (dir. Heckerling, 1995) and Emma in Emma. (dir. de Wilde, 2020). Cher epitomises the archetypal postfeminist heroine of the 1990s, with her inherent contradictions and the perpetuation of certain problematic discourses. By contrast, in spite of being set in the Regency period, the latest Emma showcases a more humanised character with an updated feminist attitude which resonates with the ideals of fourth-wave feminism.
Margin-alt: el ethos periférico y los márgenes a propósito de Javier García Rodríguez
Authors: Gutiérrez Valencia Cristina
Published: January 2024

Javier García Rodríguez es un autor cuya obra tiene base autobiográfica, pese a lo cual, la autoconciencia ficcional es un elemento clave. Todos sus libros configuran una misma obra, porque comparten un mismo autor implícito que utiliza el material autobiográfico pero sin seguir un orden cronológico. El cronotopo de dicha obra está fracturado por esta estructura desorganizada y la confluencia de dos ejes fundamentales: el barrio de Pajarillos Altos en el Valladolid de la infancia y el interior de Estados Unidos en la juventud. Las referencias culturales que van conformando el cronotopo son parte del sistema estilístico del autor, que aun inscribiéndose en una corriente generacional de regreso al barrio de los orígenes, transgrede los géneros, las intenciones y las formas de sus coetáneos.
Securities Crowdfunding (SCF) Syariah Berbasis Sukuk Sebagai Solusi Permodalan UMK Halal Di Indonesia
Authors: Syamsuri Syamsyuri , Jakiyudin Ahmad Havid , Wicaksono Muhamad Budi
Published: January 2024

Capital serves as a metric for evaluating the performance of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (UMK) in Indonesia.   Halal product-focused MSEs necessitate a steady flow of money derived exclusively from halal sources.   Currently, the capital acquired is derived from financial institutions in both conventional and sharia banking sectors through the imposition of collateral.   Sharia SCF is a digital platform that facilitates the connection between business operators and investors in a virtual environment, simplifying the process of investing.   This study aims to address the issue of capital acquisition for halal micro and small enterprises (MSEs).   The proposed method utilizes a prospective analysis to determine the viability of a sukuk-based Sharia SCF.   Qualitative descriptive research methods, including literature studies, are employed to delve more into the findings of the analysis.   The study's findings indicate that sukuk-based Sharia SCF can serve as a viable alternative source of business capital that is assured to be halal.   MSE actors have the opportunity to enhance their business by leveraging the SCF provider platform in Indonesia, which offers attractive investment returns.   SHAFIQ and LBS Crowdfunding are platforms that facilitate the execution of sharia-compliant investments, specifically sukuk.   Enforcing halal certification as a requirement can serve as a catalyst for the growth of the Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSE) sector in Indonesia, positioning it as a key player in the halal industry by 2024.
Islamic Da'wah and Cancel Culture on Virtual Media (A Case of Salafi in Lombok)
Authors: Naamy Nazar
Published: January 2024

This article aims to examine the cancel culture phenomenon experienced by a speaker Tuan Guru Mizan Qudsiyah from Lombok NTB on YouTube in 2020. The questions in this article are what is cancel culture, how does cancel culture impact individuals and groups, how does Islamic communication view the cancel culture phenomenon, how are the implications of cancel culture on Tuan Guru Mizan Qudsiyah. This research uses qualitative methods with a case study approach and this research data is taken from YouTube and then analyzed using Pierre Bourdieu's genetic structuralism theory. The results of this study revealed that cancel culture is rejection, cancellation, and boycott carried out by netizens to eliminate the charisma of a public figure because of controversial words and actions on virtual media. Individually, cancel culture results in anxiety, stress, depression, and loss of privacy. While in groups can cause social fears that are not in accordance with the norm which eventually experience restrictions on expression. Islamic communication views the phenomenon of cancel culture in virtual media as a new parasite in carrying out the principles of Islamic communication such as justice, forgiveness, dialogue, deliberation, providing opportunities for self-improvement, compassion, empathy, tenderness, and respecting differences. As for the implications of cancel culture against Tuan Guru Mizan Qudsiyah from East Lombok on YouTube in 2020 for his statement insulting the tombs of Lombok guardians as "Sasak Language: Makam Tain Acong and Tain Acong Keramat: Dog Feces Grave and Dog Feces Sacred "which in the end he was canceled by the mob and then his Assunah Islamic boarding school in Bagek Nyaka, Aikmel District, East Lombok Regency, West Nusa Tenggara was attacked and burned.

Personal branding is essential for boosting a preacher's credibility, which increases public trust. Therefore, this paper aims to reveal the implementation of personal branding for da'wa by a famous female celebrity preacher, Oki Setiana Dewi, who has been active in online da'wa for over a decade. Data for this paper were mainly obtained by documenting Oki Setiana Dewi's Instagram account (@okisetianadewi). The content analysis technique was applied to qualitatively and descriptively analyze the collected data. The findings of this research show that eight principles are actively used in da'wa personal branding: specialization, leadership, personality, difference, visibility, unity, firmness, and good name. Oki Setiana Dewi consistently displays various da'wa content in photos, videos, and written captions to build her image as a female preacher.
Social Construction of Religious Attitude towards Disaster among Victims of Natural Disasters in Palu and Lombok
Authors: Ridho Miftahur , Hudriansyah Hudriansyah
Published: January 2024

Every religion has teachings related to the best ways to cope with problems, including those caused by natural disasters. Thus, natural disasters can reshape the construction of religious attitudes among the community. Therefore, this research aims to understand how natural disasters are perceived by religious leaders in the aftermath of earthquakes in Palu and Lombok and how these perceptions impact the community's views on ideal religious attitudes after a disaster.

This research employs a phenomenological approach with thematic data analysis techniques applied to research data collected through interviews with various religious leaders and community members in Lombok Island and Palu City, two regions that experienced natural disaster events in 2018.

The research findings suggest that, despite the resurgence of a back-to-nature sentiment following the disasters in Lombok, for the Wetu Telu Muslim community, this sentiment carries a deeper meaning than merely promoting an environmentally conscious way of life. It signifies a return to a way of life rooted in traditions passed down through generations, a way of life that has been eroded by the modernization brought about by the proselytizing efforts of the majority Muslim group over the past five decades. In Palu City, the earthquake and tsunami disaster in 2018 has also shaped the community's perception of disasters and influenced their religious behaviors in the post-disaster society. In general, three common perspectives were identified. First, a majority believes the disaster is a form of divine admonition from Allah due to various deviant behaviors in the society. Second, some believe the disaster is a result of the shifting of the Palu-Koro fault plates, an unavoidable natural event, grounded in empirical knowledge sources and disaster facts. Third, Muslim groups view the disaster as a test from Allah. These three perspectives have essentially shaped a unique religious attitude among the community expressed in various forms of religiosity.

Published: January 2024

Pondok Pesantren (traditional Islamic boarding school) is one of Indonesia's most crucial pillars supporting educational needs. As the foremost institution upholding Islamic traditions in the archipelago, pesantren is expected to remain relevant amidst the advancements of the era without forsaking its deeply rooted values and traditions. Thus, this article aims to highlight the issue of technology utilization by pondok pesantren by describing the general landscape of digital media usage in several pesantren located in the Samarinda Seberang region, as well as analyzing the perceptions of pesantren administrators regarding the utilization of digital media as a means of information dissemination and as a tool to improve the overall management of pondok pesantren institution. To undertake this research, a phenomenological approach is employed to analyze data collected through observations, interviews, questionnaires, and documentation in six pondok pesantren in the Samarinda Seberang area. The findings reveal that the pondok pesantren in Samarinda Seberang are already familiar with the application of digital technology. However, this utilization remains limited to media based on images and videos. The incorporation of text-based technology is still restricted due to the lack of resources available to the pesantren.

One effective way to convey da'wah in the era of increasingly developing technology is to use the media as a channel for da'wah. Apart from that, the art of conveying da'wah also impacts whether or not the da'wah message reaches the da'wah partners easily. This article discusses how Ustaz Abdul Shomad's preaching rhetoric attracts people's interest in listening to his preaching via YouTube. This type of writing is descriptive qualitative research. Data was collected using direct observation/observation by watching Ustaz Abdul Shomad's preaching broadcasts via Ustadz Abdul Shomad Official YouTube videos. Another technique used is library research, namely collecting data through books, journals, and previous research. Data analysis was done using the media analysis method on Ustadz Abdul Shomad Official's YouTube account. The results of the research answered that to attract people's interest in watching preaching on YouTube media, Ustaz Abdul Shomad preached using a loud language style, a rising and falling tone and intonation, choosing everyday language that was easy for all groups to understand but still educational, and facial expressions. as well as body movements that are appropriate to the material discussed.

Generation Z, which is synonymous with the internet and cyberspace, also has concern for the environment. This study aims to describe the role of students’ green mindset in protecting nature in their fourth semester. This study uses a qualitative, naturalistic paradigm. Primary data was taken from participatory observations of 107 students in the 2020 and 2021 classes of the Islamic Communication and Broadcasting study program and interviews with 11 of them. The results of this study were: (1) They have a growth mindset to protect nature; (2) The green mindset they have had has been implemented with real behavior, namely holding deliberations with faculty student organizations to protect the surrounding environment, educating elementary school-age children to sort out the trash around them, doing a simple campaign on the social media they have, writing green in online media, and carrying out real actions in the field (planting plant seeds around the faculty and inviting campus residents to collect cooking oil waste). Overall, students' green mindsets should be cultivated by providing a green curriculum with several green courses to manage environmental challenges.

This study investigates the impact of notches on HDPE pipes, employing burst tests on notched HDPE pipes with varying depth ratios (a/t). The objective is to assess the burst pressure corresponding to each notch depth. Utilizing 3D finite element analyses within the context of elastic-plastic behavior, Von-Mises equivalent stress values are predicted at various positions near the notch. Critical Von-Mises equivalent stress values are anticipated for different notch shapes, depths, and hydrostatic pressure levels. The results reveal a substantial dependence of burst pressure on the notch depth, with equivalent stress reaching maximum values in the immediate vicinity of the notch and gradually diminishing towards the outer limits of the pipes.
Automatic Heliostat Learning for In-situ Concentrating Solar Power Plant Optimization with Differentiable Ray Tracing

Published: January 2024

Concentrating solar power plants (CSPs) are a clean energy source capable of competitive electricity generation even during night time, as well as the production of carbon-neutral fuels, offering a complementary role alongside photovoltaic plants. In CSPs, thousands of mirrors (heliostats) redirect sunlight onto a receiver, potentially generating temperatures exceeding 1000 °C. Practically, such efficient temperatures are never attained. Several unknown, yet operationally crucial parameters, e.g., misalignment in sun-tracking and surface deformations can cause dangerous temperature spikes, necessitating high safety margins. For competitive levelized cost of energy and large scale deployment, in-situ error measurements are an essential, yet unattained factor. To tackle this, we introduce a differentiable ray tracing machine learning approach that can derive the irradiance distribution of heliostats in a data-driven manner from a small number of calibration images already collected in most solar thermal power plants. By applying gradient-based optimization and a learning NURBS heliostat model, our approach is able to determine sub-millimeter imperfections in a real-world setting and predict heliostat-specific irradiance profiles, exceeding the precision of the state-of-the-art and establishing full automatization. The new optimization pipeline enables concurrent training of physical and data-driven models, representing a pioneering effort in unifying both paradigms for CSPs and can be a blueprint for other domains.
