Authors: Pangestu Arya , Purnama Bedy , Risnandar Risnandar
Published: February 2024

Produksi pisang di Indonesia pada tahun 2022 mencapai 9,6 juta ton buah. Metode konvensional yang digunakan untuk menentukan tingkat kematangan pisang masih mengandalkan indera penglihatan manusia dengan memperhatikan perubahan warna kulit pisang. Namun, penentuan tingkat kematangan pisang dengan metode ini memiliki beberapa kekurangan, seperti waktu yang lama, penilaian yang bersifat subjektif dan dapat menghasilkan hasil yang berbeda-beda bagi setiap individu. Oleh karena itu, teknologi computer vision dapat menjadi solusi yang efektif dalam mengklasifikasikan kematangan buah pisang secara otomatis. Penelitian ini menggunakan metodologi Vision Transformer (ViT) untuk mengklasifikasikan tingkat kematangan pada buah pisang, dengan tingkatan yang dibagi menjadi empat kategori, yaitu mentah, setengah matang, matang, dan terlalu matang. Penelitian dilakukan dengan menggunakan lima model ViT yang sudah dilatih sebelumnya atau pre-trained, yaitu ViT-B/16, ViT-B/32, ViT-L/16, ViT-L/32, and ViT-H/14 pada ImageNet-21k dan ImageNet-1k. Kemudian, model ViT tersebut dievaluasi dan dibandingkan dengan model CNN. Evaluasi dilakukan menggunakan metode cross-dataset dengan 5.068 citra pisang yang berbeda dari dataset latih. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan model ViTL/16-in21k memiliki akurasi tertinggi sebesar 91,61%. Model ViT menunjukkan kemampuan generalisasi yang lebih baik, sementara CNN memiliki ukuran model dan waktu pelatihan yang lebih efisien.

Published: February 2024

The subject of the study is the process of preparing and holding celebrations on the occasion of the five-year anniversary of the restoration of Soviet power in Yenisei Governorate. For any political regime the theme of legitimisation of power plays a great importance. One of the important indicators of this phenomenon are holidays, which consolidate society, and also influence the formation and consolidation of historical memory. This can be traced back to the formation of the Soviet holiday calendar. The theme of the Civil War was of great importance to the Bolshevik government as an example of demonstrating the victory of the new power. In this regard, the first five-year anniversary was to emphasise the final consolidation of the Soviet political regime. The article draws attention to the peculiarities of determining the date of celebration, which is connected with the step-by-step process of restoring Soviet power in the territory of Siberia. Minusinsk it was 13 September 1924, Krasnoyarsk - 6 January 1925. The single day of the holiday was 14 December 1924 - the day of liberation of Novonikolaevsk. The methodology of this work is based on a sociocultural approach and the preservation of historical memory. The methodology of this work is based on the socio-cultural approach, based on the idea of "dialogue of the past" and the preservation of historical memory. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the attraction of a wide range of sources to cover the little-studied fact in the context of the formation of the regional holiday component. The result of the study is the reconstruction of events related to the preparation and holding of festive events in honour of the five-year anniversary of the restoration of Soviet power in Yenisei Governorate in 1924-1925.

The relationship between the nanomorphology and the charge transport characteristics in solution-processed organic thin films has been the focus of extensive research, as it is key to the further advancement of organic photovoltaics. Understanding the nanostructured domains and their dependence on the applied thermal annealing conditions is one crucial challenge. Here, the conjugated small-molecule donor p-DTS(FBTTh2)2 is used as a model system to demonstrate how isothermal annealing alone, without addition of any processable additives during solution casting, leads to a high ordering of domain structures. Using scanning transmission X-ray microspectroscopy (STXM), the domain structures are probed at the resonance energy of 284.7 eV corresponding to the C1s to Pi* transition. The STXM data analysis reveals the in-plane orientation of the conjugated backbone comprising the heterocyclic aromatic compounds dithienosilole (DTS), bithiophene (BT), and fluorobenzothiadiazole (FBT). The analysis further exhibits the presence of ordered domains accompanied by the disordered boundaries in thin films where the increase in the domain sizes and the high degree of molecular order (anisotropy) is associated to the relatively slow crystallization dynamics of p-DTS(FBTTh2)2 molecules during isothermal annealing at 90 °C. The analysis of the out-of-plane component of the directed resonance intensity shows deviations in the local out-of-plane tilt angles to the lower values, for the most ordered regions in the thin film, suggesting the more out-of-plane orientation of Pi* resonance. These results manifest a promising role of STXM technique in enhancing the knowledge of domain structures in small molecule organic semiconductors.
DNA motifs hydrogel microparticles as gold nanocatalyst support material
Authors: Ishikawa Daisuke , Maruyama Koki , Hara Masahiko
Published: February 2024

Gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) are unique catalysts because the nanoparticulation increases the number high coordination unsaturation sites. For Au NPs to act as catalysts, the choice of a suitable support for the desired reaction is essential to ensure homogeneous dispersion of the particles while maintaining their nanosize. As a support material, hydrogels obtained by three-dimensional crosslinking of hydrophilic polymers are suitable dispersants for Au NPs. In addition, their high affinity for water-rich environments and high biocompatibility have attracted attention for biological and biomedical reactions. However, application in small, confined spaces such as in vivo requires micronization of the hydrogel. Here, we have developed a gold catalyst supported on micro-sized DNA hydrogels with variable internal crosslinking densities composed of simple DNA nanostructures called motifs. The short strand length of the DNA motif resulted in DNA hydrogel particles with high crosslinking density and Au NPs with small particle size. Furthermore, our micro-sized DNA hydrogel particle-supported gold catalyst system sufficiently advanced the model reaction with a very small amount of gold catalyst compared to a gel-supported gold catalyst system with a comparable Au NP size. The crosslinking density of the DNA hydrogel particles, and thus the size of the resulting Au NPs, can be easily varied and the catalytic activity can be enhanced by increasing the surface area of the hydrogel catalyst support through microparticulation. Our findings based on DNA nanotechnology suggest that the physical properties of the DNA hydrogel particles, such as particle size and crosslinking density, and the catalytic activity of the Au NPs, can be easily designed using computer software, as can the arrangement and length of the motifs that form the constituent units.
Deep Mind 21 functional does not extrapolate to transition metal chemistry
Authors: Zhao Heng , Gould Tim , Vuckovic Stefan
Published: February 2024

The development of density functional approximations stands at a crossroads: while machine-learned functionals show potential to surpass their human-designed counterparts, their extrapolation to unseen chemistry lags behind. Here we assess how well the recent Deep Mind 21 (DM21) machine-learned functional [Science 374, 1385–1389 (2021)], trained on main-group chemistry, extrapolates to transition metal chemistry (TMC). We show that DM21 demonstrates comparable or occasionally superior accuracy to B3LYP for TMC, but consistently struggles with achieving self-consistent field convergence for TMC molecules. We also compare main-group and TMC machine-learning DM21 features to shed light on DM21's challenges in TMC. We finally propose strategies to overcome limitations in the extrapolative capabilities of machine-learned functionals in TMC.
Universal Descriptors of 'Quasi Transition States' for Small-Data-Driven Asymmetric Catalysis Prediction in Machine Learning Model
Authors: Chen Guanming , Ye Zihao , Li Zhiming , Zhang Junliang
Published: February 2024

In contemporary enantioselectivity prediction models, the demand for numerous descriptors and extensive datasets poses a substantial challenge. Descriptor selection, fraught with uncertainty, compounds the issue while amassing requisite data remains a daunting task. The introduction of descriptors derived from quasi-transition-states (qTS) offers a promising avenue to alleviate this burden. However, the challenge of descriptor selection persists. Herein, a novel small-data-driven model based on universal descriptors (UD-qTS) is proposed. Key differentiating properties between diastereomeric qTSs, encompassing energies, frontier orbital energies, Cartesian forces and charges of core atoms, are proposed as UD. The model's efficacy is validated through its application to the asymmetric aldol reaction, utilizing 3 experimental variables and merely 9 UDs, and fewer than 150 training samples. Moreover, a novel method is presented using Cartesian forces to rectify discrepancies between qTS and true TS. This UD-qTS strategy circumvents tedious large-scale descriptor exploration and screening, offering an efficient choice for small-data-driven enantioselectivity prediction.
ВЫБОР АДЕКВАТНОГО ПОТЕНЦИАЛА ВЗАИМОДЕЙСТВИЯ ДЛЯ ОПИСАНИЯ ПЛОСКОСТНОГО КАНАЛИРОВАНИЯ РЕЛЯТИВИСТСКИХ ЧАСТИЦ

Published: February 2024

В работе рассматривается плоскостное каналирование релятивистских частиц в сопутствующей системе отсчета (ССО), движущейся со скоростью, равной продольной компоненте скорости каналированной частицы. В ССО движение частицы при плоскостном каналировании будет одномерным, причем для электронов и позитронов с энергиями до нескольких ГэВ оно будет нерелятивистским, как в атоме водорода. Показано, что основные характеристики квантовых состояний поперечного движения частиц при плоскостном каналировании слабо чувствительны к функциональной зависимости параметров усредненного потенциала от поперечных координат. Для определения основных характеристик такого движения предлагается использовать приближенные методы квантования Бора–Зоммерфельда, позволяющие сделать такой расчет аналитически. Приближенный метод расчета квантовых состояний можно расширить и применить для рассмотрения поперечного движения, выходящего за рамки нерелятивистского приближения даже в сопутствующей системе отсчета. Найдены распределения допустимых состояний поперечного финитного движения по энергиям для нескольких вариантов модельных потенциалов. Показано, что, несмотря на разницу в структуре энергетических уровней, средние расстояния между энергетическими уровнями практически нечувствительны к выбору модельного потенциала. Найдены энергии уровней поперечного движения для случая, когда нерелятивистское приближение не применимо даже в сопутствующей системе отсчета.

Low-income households often struggle with accessing essential resources like housing, healthcare, and education. Overcoming these challenges requires innovative solutions. While many low-income individuals’ own vehicles, the potential of these vehicles as functional spaces remains largely unexplored. This thesis initially centered on how refugees could generate income using car interiors. However, the research direction shifted to harness the broader potential of car interiors as versatile, mobile workstations.

The study’s core aim is to determine the feasibility of multi-functional, foldable furniture in transforming a vehicle into a mobile office for a wider demographic. This transition shifted the project’s focus from specific furniture designs to the multifunctionality of the entire car space, emphasizing innovative interior architecture solutions.

The overarching research question is: How can the interior redesign of a car serve as a feasible workplace for low-income families? Through design-centric investigation and a case study analysis, this research offers insights and solutions for those relying on their cars as primary resources, aiming for both functionality and accessibility.

Published: February 2024

Objective: To observe the application effect of rapid recovery surgical nursing in patients with ovarian cancer and its impact on pain levels. Methods: Forty cases of ovarian cancer patients admitted from December 2019 to December 2022 were selected as the subjects of this study and divided into two groups using a double-blind method. The number of cases was the same; one group served as the control group, receiving routine care, while the other served as the observation group, receiving rapid recovery surgical care. Postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery indicators, postoperative pain, and postoperative complications between the two groups were compared. Results: The first postoperative exhaust, defecation, and out-of-bed activity times of the 20 patients with ovarian cancer in the observation group were shorter than those of the patients in the control group, and the motilin level 48 hours after surgery was higher than that of the patients in the control group (P < 0.05). The pain score of the observation group 48 hours after surgery (1.33 ± 0.21 points) was lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05). Additionally, the postoperative complication rate of the observation group was 5.00%, which was lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Providing rapid recovery surgical care for patients with ovarian cancer can help restore postoperative gastrointestinal function, relieve pain, reduce complications, and promote early recovery.

Published: February 2024

The histological grade is usually used as a prognostic factor in canine mammary gland carcinomas, but the actual biological behaviour is not always in accordance with this available tool. Disrupted expression of cell adhesion molecules is a very promising way how to predict possible tumour spread. The goal of this study was to detect and quantify the expression of adhesion molecule E-cadherin and β-catenin by means of immunofluorescence and relate the findings with the histological grade in 18 samples of canine mammary gland carcinomas. There is a disruption of β-catenin and E-cadherin expression in canine mammary carcinoma. Significantly positive correlation was found between the expression index of E-cadherin and β-catenin with the histological grade. A significant difference (P < 0.05) in the membrane index (MI) of β-catenin expression was found between groups of canine mammary carcinomas (CMCs) grade I and II, grade I and III, grade II and III. A significant difference (P < 0.05) in the MI of E-cadherin expression was also found between groups of CMCs grade I and II, grade I and III, grade II and III. A significant difference (P < 0.05) in the cytoplasmic index (CI) of β-catenin expression was found between groups of CMCs grade I and II, grade I and III. In the case of CI expression of E-cadherin, no significant difference was found in the expression of E-cadherinin CMCs of different grade. The results of the study show that these adhesion molecules could be promising markers in determining the prognosis of patients with CMCs.

Published: February 2024

The anatomy of the human forearm and hand has been described in great detail, including possible anatomical variations. For animals, this information is still not complete. The aim of this case study was to describe the anatomy of the muscles of the forearm and hand in one individual of the Anubis baboon and to compare this information with the available data on the subject and with the anatomical standard and possible variations in humans. The biggest differences were noted in the extensor digiti minimi, where two separate muscle bellies were dissected. We believe that in this individual it was the extensor digiti quarti proprius and extensor digiti quinti proprius muscles. Anatomical standard has not yet been established for the thenar, hypothenar, and contrahentes muscles in the deep layer of the muscles of the forearm of the baboon and literary sources differ notably in some information. Determining the anatomical standard and anatomical variability of individual structures in animals is an important contribution to the field of veterinary surgery and orthopaedics.

Published: February 2024

The aim of this study was to compare the microbiological quality of cooked sausages produced with a traditional salt content (2.1%) and reformulated batches with a salt content reduced to 1.7%. The reformulation was tested on two types of comminuted meat products – Špekáčky sausage with a diameter of up to 46 mm or Bologna-type sausages in diameter of 85 mm (Gothaj sausage) or 75 mm (Junior sausage). The total viable count (TVC) increased only slightly during the four-week storage (4 ± 1 °C) of all batches of Špekáčky sausage. Comparing batches 1.7 and 2.1, there is an evident difference in the number of CFU/g, with samples of Špekáčky 1.7 showing numbers of bacteria higher by approximately 1 logarithmic order throughout practically the entire storage period (P = 0.001). The population of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) remained well beneath a value of 5.0 log CFU/g even at the end of the experiment. For Bologna-type sausages, the TVC was either beneath the limit of detection or at its boundary in all samples. LAB were not detected during storage of Bologna-type sausages. The results confirmed that the proportion of salt in cooked sausages can be reduced to 1.7% without negatively affecting the shelf life or safety of the final products.

Se realizó un estudio para analizar las percepciones y prácticas de seguridad informática de los estudiantes universitarios de primer y último semestres de la carrera universitaria de Licenciatura en Administración. El objetivo fue buscar diferencias entre lo reportado por ambos grupos. Se contó con la participación de sesenta estudiantes, todos de la generación Z, es decir, que nacieron después del año 1995. Treinta fueron de primer semestre y treinta de octavo. A todos se les aplicó un mismo cuestionario. Para establecer diferencias estadísticas significativas se realizaron pruebas t para grupos independientes. Los resultados muestran que los alumnos de octavo semestre realizaron más respaldos de información (t(46)=-2.29, p=0.02), solicitaron más ayuda de profesionales informáticos especializados (t(58)=-2.65, p=0.01) y utilizaron contraseñas más largas (t(58)=-2.48, p=0.01). Se tomaron en cuenta las debilidades detectadas y se realizó una propuesta para la capacitación y concientización en seguridad informática desde el interior de la universidad

Jimnastik, artistik buz pateni, çeşitli dans türleri gibi bale de estetik ağırlıklı performansa dayanan dallar içinde aralarındaki farklara rağmen benzerlikler göstermekte, çocukluktan itibaren mesleğin gerekliliklerinden ötürü sanatçı adayları çok yoğun çalışma programı ve çeşitli katı tutumlara maruz kalmaktadırlar. Ancak, güncel görsel estetik standartları koruyabilmeleri uğruna bale dansçıları dengesiz beslenme, menstural düzensizlikler veya kesilmesi, kemik erimesi ve stres kırıkları tıbbi sıkıntılar yaşamaktadırlar (Benson vd, 1989 ; Wolman ve Harries, 1989 ). Ergenlikten itibaren yetersiz beslenme ve sıkı kalori kısıtlamaları ile karşı karşıya kalınmasının beslenme bozukluklarının gelişmesine sebep olduğu araştırmalar sonucu tespit edilmiş, Amerikan Psikiyatri Derneği’i 2013 yılında DSM-5’e (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders– 5) göre yeme bozukluklarını 8 alt gruba ayrılmıştır ( American Psychiatric Association, 2013). Araştırmalarda balerinlerin boya göre ideal ağırlıklarının % 12’ nin altında olduğu % 15.0’inin anoreksiya ,% 19.0’unun bulimiya nervoza ölçütlerinde olduğu ( Hamilton vd.,1985), kilolarını kontrol edebilmek için %29,3’ünün kendini aç bıraktığı, %9,6’sının istifra ederek kendini kontrol etmeye çalıştığı ve %4,2’sinin laksatife başvurduğu belirlenmiş (Thomas vd., 2011), yaklaşık %83’ünün yeme bozukluğu semptomu gösterdiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır (Ringham vd.,2006). Araştırmalar sonucunda ABD Dans/ABD Bale Yöneticileri Konseyi 2011 yılında, bale dansçıları için sağlıklı beslenme kılavuzu geliştirmiştir ( Challis, 2009). Yeme bozukluklarının önlenmesi ve tedavisinde eğitim ve bilinçli yaklaşım oldukça önem taşımaktadır. Dansçılar ve adayları sanatın estetik, teknik, fizyolojik yönlerinde sakatlık ve baskı durumları ile baş edebilmek için bilgili olmalı, eğitimciler ve aileler de risk faktörleri, erken belirti ve semptomları, tanı ve tedavi başarılı olmazsa ciddi problemler ile karşı karşıya kalınacağının bilincinde olmalı semptom gösteren öğrenci veya profesyonellerin performanslarının, sağlıklarının süreçten negatif etkileneceği; tıbbi, psikolojik ve sosyal sonuçları ile problemle karşılaşıldığında uzmanlardan yardım almaları konusunda bilinçli olmalıdır ( Hasbay, 2005; Keser ve Yüksel, 2020 ).

Sanatsal psikolojizm kahramanın ruhsal dünyasının ve onun değişimlerinin detaylı betimlenmesidir. Genel anlamda yazınsal üretimin bir gereği olarak bütün edebî yapıtlarda bulunan sanatsal psiklojizm, özel anlamda psikolojik anlatılara özgü yazma üslup ve tekniklerin tümünü kapsayan bir anlatma edimi olarak tanımlanabilir. Bu çalışmanın amacı ilk defa teorik olarak ortaya konulan bir çözümleme yönteminin edebi metinler üzerinden örneklendirilmesidir. Çalışma kapsamında Ferit Edgü’nün Hakkâri öncesi yazdığı Kaçkınlar, Bozgun ve Av adlı öykü kitaplarından amaçlı örnekleme yöntemiyle seçilen sırasıyla IV. Kaçkın, Leş ve Yitik Gün adlı öyküleri seçilmiştir. Çalışma nitel yaklaşıma dayalı olarak doküman incelemesi şeklinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. İlgili öykülerin çözümlenmesinde betimsel çözümleme yaklaşımına dayalı olarak içerik analizi yöntemi tercih edilmiştir. Bu bağlamda gerçekleştirilen incelemenin psikolojizm ve Greimas’ın anlatısal tipteki metinlerde olay örgüsünü incelemede kullandığı dörtlü şemanın bütünleşik ve birbirini destekler niteliktedir. Gerçekleştirilen deneysel okuma sonucunda, bu döneme ait öykülerde, özne konumundaki kahramanların olay merkezli psikolojik bir dönüşüm yaşadıkları; bilinçsizlik, omtolojik mücadele, ötekileştirmeye direnç, kalıp toplumsal normların aynileştiren ve doğal olarak da şeyleştirip nesneleştiren dönüşümsel baskısının anlatı kişileri üzerinde ruhsal tükenmişlik oluşturduğu tespit edilmiştir.

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Ankara ili Mamak ilçesinde Ortaokul düzeyinde görev yapan sınıf rehber öğretmenlerinin Bireyselleştirilmiş Eğitim Programı (BEP) hazırlama sürecinde yaşadıkları güçlüklerin düzeyini belirleyerek bazı demografik ve mesleki değişkenler açısından farklılaşıp farklılaşmadığına bakmaktır. Çalışmaya Ankara ili Mamak ilçesindeki ortaokullarda görev yapan 208 öğretmen katılmıştır. Araştırmada yaşadıkları güçlüklerin düzeyini belirlemek için Leyla Tike’nin (2007) geliştirdiği ‘Bireyselleştirilmiş Eğitim Programı Hazırlama Sürecine İlişkin Yaşanılan Güçlükleri Belirleme Ölçeği’ ve içerisinde cinsiyet, görev süresi, branş vb bilgilerin yer aldığı ‘Kişisel Bilgi Formu’ kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın ilk bulgusu kadın öğretmenlerin BEP hazırlama konusunda erkek öğretmenlere göre tutumlarının daha olumlu ve daha az güçlük yaşadığıdır. Araştırmanın bir diğer bulgusu bekar öğretmenlerin tutumlarının evli öğretmenlere göre daha olumlu olduğu ve daha az güçlük yaşadığıdır. Kıdem sürelerine bakıldığında 21-25 yıl arasında görev yapan daha tecrübeli öğretmenlerin daha olumlu bir tutuma sahip olduğunu görmekteyiz. Çalışmada BEP hazırlama sürecine ilişkin hizmet içi eğitim alan öğretmenlerin daha az güçlük yaşadıkları bu nedenle de sürece daha olumlu baktıkları görülmüştür.

Introduction. Treatment of the coexistent pathology of lung cancer and tuberculosis remains the prerogative of experimental research, since the optimal treatment strategy for the coexistence of these two diseases has not yet been developed. The purpose was to study the effectiveness and safety of carboplatin-containing antitumor therapy regimens in combination with anti-tuberculosis chemotherapy. Material and methods. The study was conducted on 64 C57BL/6 mice aged two months with a previously modeled coexistant pathology of lung carcinoma and tuberculosis. Depending on the therapy, 4 groups were formed: 1 – control without treatment (n=16), 2 – antitumor (carboplatin + paclitaxel) + antituberculosis therapy (n=16), 3 – antitumor (carboplatin + pemetrexed) + antituberculosis therapy (n=16), 4 – antitumor (carboplatin + gemcitabine) + anti-tuberculosis therapy (n=16). The anti-tuberculosis therapy regimen included the administration of isoniazid, rifampicin, pyrazinamide and ethambutol. The antitumor effect (tumor growth index, tumor growth inhibition), antituberculosis effect (CFU per lung weight), toxicity (clinical blood test parameters, biometric indicators of internal organs), and survival were assessed. Statistical processing was carried out using non-parmetric statistics methods. Results. The lowest average body weight was recorded in group 4 from 7 to 21 days. The greatest differences between groups in the volume of the tumor node were observed from 12 to 16 days of the experiment under the influence of antitumor drugs. At the same time, the greatest inhibition of tumor growth was observed in group 4. On day 9 in group 2 there were signs of the myelo-immunosuppressive effect of antitumor therapy in the form of a decrease in the concentration of leukocytes, lymphocytes and monocytes. In the study groups, there were no statistically significant differences in the survival rate of the experimental and control groups. In all experimental groups, significantly lower spleen MC values were recorded, and in group 4, significantly lower liver MC values were also recorded. The highest level of mycobacterial load was recorded in the control group. The lowest CFU per lung weight was found in the carboplatin and gemcitabine treatment group. Conclusion. Carboplatin-containing chemotherapy regimens for lung carcinoma in tuberculosis-infected mice have both antitumor and antituberculosis effects. The most pronounced antimycobacterial activity was recorded when using a combination of antituberculosis therapy with carboplatin and gemcitabine.
