Rare Earth Elements, Microorganisms, and Control of Plant Diseases
Authors: Kastori Rudolf , Putnik-Delić Marina , Maksimović Ivana 
Published: December 2024

Summary
Rare earth elements (REEs) are a group of trace metals relatively abundant in the Earth’s crust. REEs are widely dispersed in small concentrations throughout the environment. These elements demonstrate similar physical and chemical properties. REEs have been widely used in various areas of industry, agriculture and medicine. China was the first country to commercially apply REE products as micro-fertilizers or growth simulators in agriculture. Although REEs are not essential for living organisms, they can influence their life processes. Results of recent investigations demonstrate that hormesis commonly occurs in a variety of plants and microorganisms in response to REEs. REEs affect the growth, reproduction and metabolism of microorganisms. Microorganisms are involved in all geochemical cycles of metals. They can produce various organic acids and other substances capable of mobilizing REEs in the soil, thereby promoting their uptake by plants. Metals can be bound by microorganisms through bioadsorption, bioaccumulation, and interactions with metabolic products, which may help in reducing metal leaching and increase their availability to plants. As a result, microorganisms can be used for the revitalization of habitats polluted by metals, primarily water. It was found that REEs can directly and indirectly affect several types of plant pathogens. REEs can control some phytopathogens directly by reducing their growth and virulence in host plants, while also eliciting disease resistance response in plants. The mechanisms by which REEs act against plant diseases result from complex interactions of many biotic and abiotic factors, which indicates the multifaceted nature of this phenomenon. Current evidence confirms that REEs can control pathogens under certain conditions. However, further studies investigating the mechanisms by which REEs control pathogens and performance of individual elements are necessary for their further application.

Published: December 2024

Abstract
Financial fraud activities are very frequent in recent days in rural areas where people are more in need of money and desperate to make some in any way possible. This research explores the nature, causes, and consequences of rural financial fraud with the impact on rural life and the responses of law enforcement to these occurrences. The primary data for this study was collected through in-depth interview from 24 victims of financial fraud, and 4 KIIs were conducted to get the data through semi-structured questionnaires using the qualitative research method, and the findings are presented using thematic analysis. This study found greed, temptation, and believing in fraudsters are the main causes of these fraud incidents. The fraudster, in all cases, motivated the victims in a certain way and took as much money as possible before running away, and the responses of law enforcement, credit cooperative authorities, and the local government are not satisfactory as they did nothing much to prevent and combat these fraudulent activities. The impact of these fraudulent schemes is severe, as the victims faced financial breakdown, family pressure, and psychological pressure. Moreover, reducing cravings for money, inspecting schemes before investing, monitoring by the respective authorities and building awareness among people can be preventive factors to stop these kinds of rural financial fraud.

Authors: Hamamci Hatice Nayman , Aren Selim 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
This study is aimed to quantitatively classify the publications about the concept of tribalism and to reveal the reflections of the relevant concept in the literature. A systematic literature review was conducted with bibliometric analysis. The study examined 334 articles published between 2003 and 2023 that used the terms "tribalism", "tribal", or "tribes." The articles were exported from Web of Science database in November 2023. The data set of the study was analyzed using the Bibliometix package in the R Studio program. In this context, content analysis and citation network analysis were performed on the data. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the number of articles published on tribalism has fluctuated over the years. Brand tribalism, culture and customer tribes are the most frequently used keywords along with tribalism. A diffraction occurred in 2016 and the words "community", "brand community", "consumer tribes" and "brand" came to the fore. In the last five years, tribalism, brand, brand tribalism and tribal marketing were the most trending topics. It was found that the most frequently cited articles regarding the concept of tribalism are mainly theoretical articles.

Objective: To describe the profile of Consciential Intelligence (CI) in Peruvian adults before the COVID-19 pandemic occurs.

Theoretical Framework: Concepts and theories are provided that underpin the study and provide a solid basis for understanding the subject matter and context of the research.

Method: Cross-sectional study of 415 adult participants in the province of Ica-Peru. Data collection was carried out by means of an online survey using the Consciential Intelligence Scale and a questionnaire with general variables.

Results and Discussion: The majority of the participants presented an unhealthy CI profile; better CI scores were revealed by women, health worker, evangelical religion, young life stage and higher education. Results vary according to existential thinking and transcendental awareness in practice. It is recommended that this modality of intelligence be cultivated and developed so that it can flourish to the fullest.

Research Implications: CI is presented as an alternative to recover human values in a community with patterns and paradigms typical of a dystopian society.

Originality/Value: CI is a recently coined term to refer to Howard Gardner's ninth multiple intelligence. A construct that has regained relevance in the current times of crisis of conscience because of its relationship with virtuous behaviour.

Published: December 2024

Children with Special Needs in inclusive schools in Tegal City, especially at the junior high school level, are currently only present in two schools: SMPN 9 and SMPN 5. There are 9 children with special needs at SMPN 9 and 3 children with special needs at SMPN 5, all of whom require assistance in their learning processes. However, in practice, they have not received optimal support due to a lack of specialized human resources in the field. As a result, these students are still provided services similar to those given to normal children, which significantly hinders their learning development in school. Based on the results of the Special Needs Child Assistance activities in Inclusive Schools in Tegal City, especially at SMPN 5 and SMPN 9 Tegal City, there have been changes in social levels, particularly an increase in self-confidence. The learning difficulties experienced have shown improvement, with children starting to complete their tasks well, writing becoming more organized, and being able to speak coherently and manage their emotions. The findings of this activity indicate that special needs children require assistance activities to enhance their development, especially in learning. However, the weakness of this activity is that special needs children in inclusive schools in Tegal City, specifically at SMPN 5 and SMPN 9 Tegal City, still need to be accompanied by special teachers, but in reality, the human resources available in those schools are lacking.
Metaphysical attributes in natural theology Archpriest Fyodor Golubin
Authors: Ermolaev Tikhon Markovich 
Published: December 2024

The article presents a historical-philosophical and historical-theological analysis of the main topics of natural theology in the philosophical heritage of Archpriest Fyodor Golubinsky, professor of the Moscow Theological Academy (1798–1854). This research examines the doctrine of Divine attributes, which is one of the key sections of natural theology. This teaching by Golubinsky serves as the basis for the next section of his system devoted to Divine Providence, therefore, the study of the doctrine of the properties of God is necessary for a full understanding of the apologetic heritage of the professor. The focus of the research is on metaphysical divine attributes, they are common to theistic religious traditions. The article refers to pre-revolutionary spiritual and academic education, the study of which is necessary for a better orientation in the domestic educational space. A study of the legacy of Archpriest Fyodor Golubinsky confirms that the topic of Divine attributes has traditionally been taught in both dogmatic and rational theology. This underlines the importance of integrating philosophical and theological aspects in the training of the clergy, which, in turn, can have an impact on modern theological discourse and its development. The work uses general scientific methods (analysis, synthesis, comparison, systematic approach, etc.), as well as special (historical-theological and historical-philosophical). It should be noted that spiritual and academic natural theology remains almost unexplored when various topics of rational theology are actively being developed in the modern scientific space. Being an extraordinarily erudite teacher and scientist, Golubinsky integrated Orthodox religious experience into a wide theological and philosophical context, enriching domestic humanitarian and theological spaces with many fundamental Christian provisions, while preserving the methodology of natural theology. This article highlights the main sources that influenced the formation of his teaching on the metaphysical properties of God. The article highlights the strengths of the professor's constructions, in particular, in the context of substantiating the attribute of simplicity, about which active discussions are underway in the modern scientific space. The need for further research on this issue is emphasized.
Safety of emergency endoscopic endonasal surgery in COVID-positive patients with hemorrhagic complications of pituitary region tumors: A case report and review of the literature
Authors: Zeller Sabrina L , Kim Michael G. , Al-Mufti Fawaz , Hanft Simon J. , Kim Matthew , Pisapia Jared M. 
Published: December 2024

Background:
Pituitary apoplexy (PA) is a rare, life-threatening clinical syndrome that occurs in response to acute ischemic infarction or hemorrhage of a pituitary adenoma. We report two cases of sudden neurologic and visual decline in patients with pituitary region masses in coronavirus disease (COVID)-positive patients with a focus on potential pathophysiological mechanisms and a safe approach to treatment.

Case Description:
Case one is a 58-year-old male presenting with sudden-onset headache and visual disturbance. He was febrile and tested positive for COVID-19. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a large sellarsuprasellar mass with intratumoral hemorrhagic components. He underwent endoscopic endonasal resection with subsequent improvement in vision and oculomotor function. Pathology was consistent with hemorrhagic pituitary adenoma. Case two is a 15-year-old male presenting with sudden-onset severe headache and acute visual loss. He also tested positive for COVID-19. MRI revealed a sellar-suprasellar mass with a regional mass effect. He underwent endoscopic endonasal resection with improvement in vision over time. Pathology was consistent with craniopharyngioma. There was no evidence of intraoperative COVID-19 transmission among members of the surgical team, who were monitored for 2 weeks after surgery.

Conclusion:
PA in the setting of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a COVID-positive patient presenting with acute severe headache, visual loss, and/or ophthalmoplegia; we discuss proposed mechanisms related to inflammation, coagulability, and hypoxia. The absence of intraoperative COVID-19 transmission during transsphenoidal resection performed in an emergency setting suggests that the risk of exposure may be attenuated with safety precautions.
An overview of intramedullary spinal cord metastases accompanied by a 2D intraoperative video
Authors: Stewart Nehemiah , Lee Brandon , Bourdages George , Galgano Michael 
Published: December 2024

Background:
Metastatic intramedullary spinal cord metastases (IMSCMs) constitute <2% of spinal cord tumors. IMSCM is a late-stage manifestation of cancer with a highly variable presentation and poor survival rate. Here, we present an operative video involving gross total resection of an IMSCM (i.e., non-small-cell lung cancer [NSCLC]) in a 74-year-old male.

Case Description:
A functionally independent 74-year-old male with a history of renal cell carcinoma (i.e., prior nephrectomy) and NSCLC presented with progressive right-sided hemiparesis/hemisensory loss. The patient’s magnetic resonance imaging showed a right-eccentric metastatic lesion extending from the inferior of C3 to the superior of C5. The patient underwent a laminectomy with C2-C6 instrumentation for focal en bloc resection of the tumor (i.e., pathologically proven to be NSCLC). During surgery, dorsal column mapping defined the electrophysiological midline before proceeding with the midline myelotomy. Five months postoperatively, the patient’s right-sided motor function continued to improve, and he was able to continue adjunctive therapies for his NSCLC.

Conclusion:
This study documents the efficacy/utility of gross total en bloc resection in preserving/improving the neurological function of IMSCM lesions in elderly patients.

Authors: Prasetiyo Adi 
Published: December 2024

Bandara Internasional Sultan Hasanuddin merupakan salah satu bandara yang terletak diantara perbukitan dan dataran rendah sehingga dengan kondisi tersebut pergerakan angin di bandara tersebut sangat beragam. Dalam kegiatan operasional penerbangan, angin terbagi dalam 3 jenis yaitu headwind, tailwind, dan crosswind, namun yang membahayakan bagi penerbangan adalah tailwind dan crosswind dengan kecepatan diatas 10 knot. Untuk mewujudkan keselamatan penerbangan di Bandara Internasional Sultan Hasanuddin diperlukan pemahaman tentang pola arah dan kecepatan angin permukaan yang dianalisis dengan menggunakan diagram windrose. Data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah data arah dan kecepatan angin permukaan dari tahun 2014 – 2023 yang didapatkan dari METAR (Meteorological Aerodrome Report) Stasiun Meteorologi Kelas I Sultan Hasanuddin. Berdasarkan hasil dan pembahasan yang didapatkan, arah angin yang dominan dari tahun 2014 – 2023 di Bandara Internasional Sultan Hasanuddin adalah timur (67.5° – 112.5°) serta jangkauan kecepatan angin tertinggi pada tahun 2014 – 2023 di Bandara Internasional Sultan Hasanuddin sebesar ≥ 21,58 knot. Pada arah angin yang bersilangan atau searah dengan runway 03 – 21 dan runway 13 – 31 masih ditemukan adanya kecepatan angin lebih dari 10 knot sehingga dengan kondisi tersebut berpotensi menghasilkan crosswind atau tailwind yang membahayakan pesawat.

Penelitian ini mempunyai tujuan untuk mengevaluasi perubahan morfologi dan fisikokimia tepung uwi selama perendaman dan pengeringan secara simultan. Irisan umbi uwi direndam selama 0, 24, dan 48 jam yang menyebabkan fermentasi alami, irisan umbi basah dikeringkan pada pengering kabinet selama 18 jam pada suhu pengeringan 40, 50, dan 60 °C. Irisan umbi uwi kering dihaluskan sampai 100 mesh dan dilanjutkan dengan analisis morfologi granula, kadar pati, kadar amilosa, kadar protein, kadar serat kasar, pH, titratable acidity, warna tepung uwi dan analisis gugus fungsi menggunakan ATR-FTIR. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat lubang pada permukaan granula pati hasil fermentasi 48 jam. Keberadaan lubang pada permukaan granula menyebabkan leaching amilosa yang menyebabkan perubahan pada karakteristik fisikokimia pati. Interaksi lama perendaman dan suhu pengeringan berpengaruh sangat nyata terhadap kadar pati dan warna. Semakin lama fermentasi alami dan semakin tinggi suhu pengeringan akan menurunkan kadar pati, nilai kecerahan L*, kemerahan a* dan kebiruan b*. Lama fermentasi alami menurunkan amilosa, protein larut air, serat kasar, dan pH, meningkatkan titratable acidity, namun tidak dipengaruhi oleh suhu pengeringan. Struktur molekul pati uwi hampir tidak berubah setelah fermentasi alami dan pengeringan, ditunjukkan tidak adanya gugus fungsi baru pada spektra FTIR. Karakteristik tepung uwi yang terbaik dari perlakuan fermentasi alami selama 24 jam dan pengeringan 60 °C dengan kadar pati 72,02%, rendemen, 24,595, kadar amilosa 31,07%, kadar protein larut 2,74%, kadar serat kasar 1,56%, pH 5,88, titratable acidity 0,68, kelarutan 13,28%, L* 67,9, a* 3,6, b* -2.
