The Potential of Methane Gas as an Alternative Energy Source in Kebon Kongok Landfill
Authors: Abdullah Taufik , Hidayat Nur Rosman , Sholehah Hijriati 
Published: December 2020

Waste management in West Nusa Tenggara Provincial Government focuses on two main things, namely the reduction and handling and providing of TPA which is still operated with an open dumping system. Application of an open system in TPA will cause many problems, including air pollution by methane gas and the greenhouse effect. This study aims to determine the potential methane gas content of the Kebon Kongok landfill as an alternative energy source by modelling using LandGEM. The data in this study consisted of the year of the TPA operation plan and the annual data on the waste generation of TPA. The results showed that the potential content of methane gas was 12,999,633.62 m3/year, or equivalent to 14,520.88 MWh/year, in the form of gas as much as 9,966.38 Megagrams of LPG/ year. Therefore, the Kebon Kongok TPA has the potential to be used as a power plant fuelled by methane gas and facilitates electricity connections for the surrounding community because when compared to other existing renewable energy plants in the Lombok Electricity System, the capacity of 1.66 Megawatts was already equivalent to the power generation capacity which are already operating commercially.
Undergraduates’ use of metacognitive strategies in a PBL writing process
Authors: Aliyu Muhammad Mukhtar , Yong Mei Fung 
Published: December 2020

This study examines the use of metacognitive strategies in undergraduates’ PBL writing process. The participants of the study are 18 second-year undergraduates in an intact class of Advanced Composition in a university in North-eastern Nigeria. Data for the study were collected through audio and video recordings of the participants’ interactions in the PBL process. The findings of the study showed the PBL allowed the participants to effectively use metacognitive strategies: planning, monitoring and evaluation in various ways to achieve their writing goals. For the planning process, the participants made an overall plan of their writing process, generated various ideas, retrieved their rhetorical and linguistic knowledge, and made decisions on what and how to present ideas in their writing. For monitoring, they kept track of the transition of ideas and paragraphs in their writing and identify and remedy problems that affect the writing progress. For evaluation, they evaluated the content, organisation, and language of their writing. The paper makes some recommendations for teachers to assist students in the use of metacognitive strategies which eventually improve their writing skills.

Published: December 2020

CONTEXT:Given the wide-ranging health impacts of justice system involvement, we examined evidence for the association between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and justice system contact in the United States.OBJECTIVE:To synthesize epidemiological evidence for the association between ACEs and justice system contact.DATA SOURCES:We searched 5 databases for studies conducted through January 2020. The search term used for each database was as follows: (“aces” OR “childhood adversities”) AND (“delinquency” OR “crime” OR “juvenile” OR criminal* OR offend*).STUDY SELECTION:We included all observational studies assessing the association between ACEs and justice system contact conducted in the United States.DATA EXTRACTION:Data extracted from each eligible study included information about the study design, study population, sample size, exposure and outcome measures, and key findings. Study quality was assessed by using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale for nonrandomized trials.RESULTS:In total, 10 of 11 studies reviewed were conducted in juvenile population groups. Elevated ACE scores were associated with increased risk of juvenile justice system contact. Estimates of the adjusted odds ratio of justice system contact per 1-point increase in ACE score ranged from 0.91 to 1.68. Results were consistent across multiple types of justice system contact and across geographic regions.LIMITATIONS:Most studies reviewed were conducted in juvenile justice-involved populations with follow-up limited to adolescence or early adulthood.CONCLUSIONS:ACEs are positively associated with juvenile justice system contact in a dose-response fashion. ACE prevention programs may help reduce juvenile justice system contacts and improve child and adolescent health.

Published: December 2020

Objetivo Generar una propuesta preliminar de un sistema integral de vigilancia del síndrome febril agudo para el municipio de Villeta, Cundinamarca, que contribuya en los procesos de recolección de datos en la presentación de casos en humanos y animales.Materiales y Métodos Un estudio retrospectivo transversal de 40 fichas de notificación obligatoria para pacientes con sospecha de dengue captados durante octubre de 2011 y marzo de 2013 en el hospital Salazar de Villeta, que generó una base de datos analizada por el programa Epiinfo 7. Asimismo, debido a la evidencia de circulación de leptospirosis y rickettsiosis en dicho municipio y considerando que estas etiologías son de carácter zoonótico, se realizó una adaptación respecto al evento en canino. De esta manera, estos resultados permitieron diseñar la propuesta de un sistema de vigilancia conformada por definiciones operativas de caso para las etiologías febriles, algoritmos de acción e instrumentos de notificación.Resultados El 60% de las personas que consultaron por síndrome febril pertenecían a la cabecera municipal; el 30% de los pacientes fueron menores de 10 años. Los síntomas manifestados con mayor frecuencia fueron: fiebre (98%), mialgias (85%), cefalea (75%) y artralgias (65%). El mayor número de casos se presentó en septiembre de 2012. El sistema de vigilancia propuesto contribuirá al fortalecimiento de la vigilancia sindrómica, que considera cuatro componentes: humano, animal, comunitario y ambiental, lo que facilita la identificación y la atención oportuna de los casos de síndrome febril agudo.Conclusión El sistema de vigilancia sindrómica permite abordar integralmente las enfermedades febriles con signos comunes haciendo más eficiente el proceso de notificación.

"Låt lärarna vara lärare" – idéer om lärararbete i det offentliga samtalet om lärarassistenter
Authors: Lindqvist Per 
Published: December 2020

I artikeln uppmärksammas det offentliga samtalet om behovet av avlastning för lärare, i vilket införandet av lärarassistenter förts fram som en potentiellt verkningsfull åtgärd. Med hjälp av en innehållsanalys av medietexter prövas att se på samtalet som en del av en svängning i samtalet om skolan och lärararbetet som i förlängningen kan innebära en omdefiniering av lärares arbete. De övergripande frågorna i artikeln kretsar kring vilka olika idéer om lärararbetet som träder fram och som ges dominans i samtalet. I studien diskuteras också hur samtalet kan komma att påverka framtida förflyttningar av gränser kring framför allt den sociala dimensionen av lärararbetet.
Resultatet visar att exponeringen av begreppet ”lärarassistent” i media ökade närmast explosionsartat under början av 2016 samt att mediasamtalet har präglats av konsensus om idén om det ”rena” lärararbetet där lärarna ska ägna sig åt undervisning och överlämna andra kringuppgifter åt antingen yrkesgrupper med lägre status i organisationen eller professionella yrkesgrupper med specialistkompetens. Studien visar också att samtalet om införande av lärarassistenter i de svenska skolorna kan ses som ett steg på väg tillbaka mot en reduktion av lärararbetets sociala dimension, där lärarassistenter tar hand om det elevnära arbetet och där lärarens utsträckning från klassrummet begränsas.
Organiserade partnerskap i lärarutbildning lägger grunden för praktiknära forskning
Authors: Jarl Maria , Taube Magdalena 
Published: December 2020

Tidigare artiklar i debatten om praktiknära forskning har uppmärksammat den nationella försöksverksamheten med samverkan kring praktiknära forskning, ULF. Vi menar att bilden av ULF i tidigare artiklar är för snäv. Det primära syftet är inte praktiknära forskning i sig, utan att utveckla och pröva former för samverkan kring praktiknära forskning mellan lärosäte och skolhuvudmän, inom ramen för samarbetsavtal, så kallade ULF-avtal. I artikeln diskuteras ULF-avtalens centrala funktion med utgångspunkt i forskningen om partnerskap i lärarutbildning. Vi ger exempel från ULF-arbetet vid Göteborgs universitet, ett av fyra universitet som ansvarar för ULF på regeringens uppdrag. Vi argumenterar för att det saknas grund för farhågan att den praktiknära forskningen ensidigt skulle fokusera på metoder som fungerar eller att det skulle vara ett problem att andra än lärarna är med och definierar vad som är praktiknära, vilket har framkommit i tidigare artiklar.
Lärarna – problem eller lösning?
Authors: Carlgren Ingrid 
Published: December 2020

Att Pedagogisk forskning i Sverige tar initiativ till en debatt är i sig ett uttryck för att den praktiknära forskningen blivit något som är nödvändigt att förhålla sig till. Men är det ökande intresse bland forskare, som både Camilio von Greiff och Anders Persson beskriver, ett tecken på ett paradigmskifte(von Greiff, 2020; Persson, 2020) ? Eller är det helt enkelt den pedagogiska starflocken som flyger dit pengarna och uppdragen finns? I det senare fallet innebär det att många olika intressen kommer in i det så kallade tredje rummet (se debattinläggen från Olsson & Cederlund, Maria Jarl och Magdalena Taube samt Tine S. Prøitz) och därmed också en strid om vad den praktiknära forskningen ska vara.
A Dynamic-Rupture Model of the 2019 Mw 7.1 Ridgecrest Earthquake Being Compatible with the Observations

Published: December 2020

AbstractWe explore the 2019 Mw 7.1 Ridgecrest earthquake dynamic rupture on the nonplanar fault with homogeneous dynamic parameters using a layered media model. Our model shows that this event produced an average of 1.9 m of right-lateral slip with a maximum slip of ∼4.2  m at the place near the epicenter, and the variation of fault-plane strike angles from the middle to the southeastern segment appears to have behaved as a “stress barrier,” which postponed the rupture. We also compare the synthetics based on our dynamic rupture with the field records and find good agreement with the static Global Positioning System (GPS) coseismic offsets and strong ground motion waveforms. Our work provides a dynamic-rupture interpretation of the Mw 7.1 Ridgecrest earthquake.
Epidemic and the Individual: Renaissance Understandings of the Plague in View of Modern Experiences
Authors: Blum Paul Richard 
Published: December 2020

Epidemia a jednostka: renesansowe rozumienie plag z perspektywy nowoczesnych doświadczeń
Epidemie są wyzwaniem dla indywidualizmu. Chociaż myślimy o chorobach w kategoriach osobistego cierpienia i wyborów, plagi od dawna dotykają wspólnot i społeczności. Epidemie zwracają perspektywę na zbiorowość, transcendencję i to, co zewnętrzne, a strach, terapia i opieka stają się bardziej uniwersalne niż indywidualne. Oto wnioski, które możemy wyciągnąć z teorii epidemii filozofów renesansu. Marsilio Ficino (1433–1499) udzielił „Rady przeciwko zarazie” (Consilio contro la pestilenzia), podkreślając harmonię ciała ze środowiskiem (powietrze i planety). Girolamo Fracastoro (1477–1553) stworzył pierwszy opis kiły (syfilisu) zarówno pod względem naukowym, jak i poetyckim (Syphilis sive de morbo gallico). Wymyślił nazwę dla tej dolegliwości. Postrzegał aktywność seksualną jako jedno z typowych zachowań międzyludzkich. Troska o zdrowie wymaga szacunku dla innych, a obwinianie innych (jak w przypadku „choroby francuskiej”) jest bezużyteczne. Jean Fernel (1497-1558) wezwał do ściśle medycznych badań epidemii, jednocześnie przyznając, że dane są niewystarczające, stąd tytuł jego książki De abditis rerum causis („Ukryte przyczyny”). W ten sposób wyjaśnił irracjonalne zachowanie populacji i niektórych uczonych. Zadaniem jest przeżycie w niepewności i powstrzymanie epidemii poprzez powstrzymanie nieznanego.
La crisis de la democracia representativa y las tendencias hacia un hiperpresidencialismo, un análisis del caso México
Authors: Wong Meraz Víctor Alejandro 
Published: December 2020

El presente artículo analiza uno de los temas centrales para el constitucionalismo moderno: el control del poder. El cual, con la crisis provocada por el COVID-19, ha puesto en jaque a todas las instituciones democráticas del mundo. Ello ha ocasionado que resurjan las tentaciones de presidentes fuertes, o incluso de llegar a los presidencialismos autoritarios bajo el argumento de poder responder mejor al reto. La metodología que se emplea para la presente investigación será cualitativa, en el sentido de que el análisis resultante es a partir del estudio en diversos textos, de las famosas facultades metaconstitucionales que han repercutido en la realidad constitucional. Igualmente, se analizarán los resultados de 2018, teniendo en cuenta que podría detonar las facultades metaconstitucionales del presidente mexicano. Como resultado de la investigación se acredita la importancia del estudio del debate del constitucional suscitado en la República de Weimar, en la época Entre Guerras. El cual, es considerado el de mayor rigor científico y que más ha aportado a las ciencias jurídicas. Allí podemos caer en el positivismo jurídico de Kelsen, decisionismo de Schmitt, integracionismo de Smend, o la metodología de las ciencias constitucionales de Heller.
WITHDRAWN: Development and validation in 500 female samples of a TP-PCR assay to identify AFF2 GCC expansions

Published: December 2020

Abstract
The absence of FRAXE pathognomonic features hampers early recognition, delaying testing and molecular confirmation. Hence, our laboratory uses a multiplex PCR-based strategy to determine the allele size of both FRAXA and FRAXE in which around 20% of female samples are uninformative. The aim of this study is to develop a timely triplet-primed amplification (TP-PCR) screening strategy to size the AFF2 GCC repeat and accurately assess homozygosity in female samples. In order to achieve this, validation was performed in a cohort of 500 females with a previous uninformative FRAXE PCR result. Unlike the presence of AGG interspersion(s) in FRAXA triplet repeats, no interspersion was observed among the samples tested. Interestingly, the presence of a T>C SNP (rs868949662), contiguous to the GCC repetitive track, allows triplet primer binding in two additional GCCs, increasing the discrimination power of the TP-PCR assay in heterozygous and homozygous samples. Twelve alleles outside the normal range, eight intermediate and four premutated, were recognized, which seems relevant considering the rarity of the AFF2 expansions. Overall, this study confirmed the absence of interspersions in both normal and expanded FRAXE alleles, providing a strict, reproducible and low-cost homozygosity screening strategy. Furthermore, the occurrence of intermediate repeat sizes with unexpected frequency introduces new areas of clinical research in this cohort in understanding these less explored AFF2 repeat sizes and newly associated phenotypes.

Abstract
Background: At present, there is no effective analysis method for array pulse wave. But this is very important for promoting the development of pulse diagnosis. Hypertension is a common and easy-to-diagnosis of cardiovascular disease, which is the development foundation of other cardiovascular diseases. Our goal in the study is to establish analysis method for array pulse wave and preliminary application in hypertensive disorders.Methods: In this study, a sensor array can be used for real-time monitoring of pulse wave twelve channels. We calculated the average pulse wave (APW) of per channel within thirty seconds. The most representative pulse wave (MRPV) and the APW matched by correlation coefficient. Feature points of the MRPV were identified by manually. These feature points corresponding to the array pulse volume (APV) parameters were also identified by manually. Finally, clinical trial was executed to detect these feature performance indicators in hypertensive disorders.Results: The raoAPV h1 , raoAPV h3 , raoAPV h4 , raoAPV h3/h1 and raoAPV h4/h of hypertension group significantly increased compared with that of the healthy group ( P <0.01, P <0.05). The zhongAPV h4 , zhongAPV h3/h1 , zhongAPV h4/h1 and meanAPV h3 , meanAPV h3/h1 , meanAPV h4/h1 were significantly increased in hypertension group compared with healthy group ( P <0.05, P <0.01). The chiAPV h4/h1 of hypertension group was obviously elevated ( P <0.05). The results preliminarily validated novelty of APV on array pulse wave analysis. This indicator was effective in reflecting the hypertensive vascular function.Conclusion: Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) pulse is a combination of multi-dimensional information. Array sensor could be better reduction of TCM pulse characteristics. In the study, the analysis of array pulse wave was valid, and the APV was reliable to mirror TCM pulse characteristics.

Abstract
Background: In this study, the anxiety levels and sleep qualities of cardiologists who continue to treat cardiac emergency patients in addition to their epidemic duties during the period when the COVID 19 pandemic was the most intense and the unknown was the most in our country. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 347 cardiologists throughout Turkey from April 17 to 20, 2020. The research was conducted by means of a confidential on-line survey. The research used the Turkish versions of the 7-item Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale, 7-item Insomnia Severity Index and 9 –item Patient Health Questionnaire.Results : Of the total number of respondents, n= 193 (55.6 %) were aged 31 to 40 years and n= 84 ( 24.2%) were women. 79% of the participants were working in tertiary care centers where cardiac patients and covid patients were admitted and treated more. A considerable proportion of participants reported symptoms of anxiety (54.2 %), insomnia (44.1%), and depression (%71.1). Women cardiologist reported more severe degrees of all measurements of anxiety symptoms and depression symptoms than male cardiologists. Mean Generalized Anxiety Disorder scale scores among women vs male : 6.6 ± 3.5 vs 5.0 ± 4.3 ; p = 0.005 ; mean Insomnia Severity Index scores among women vs male doctors: 7.3±4.3 vs 6.9±4.6; P > 0.05; mean Impact of Event Scale–Revised scores among women vs male cardiologists : 8.0 ± 3.9 vs 6.8± 4.7; p = 0.02. Conclusions: In this survey, during this outbreak most of the cardiologists were found to be mentally challenged while continuing their profession. Especially the anxiety and depression symptoms of female doctor are higher than their male counterparts. The anxiety and stress disorder created by this pandemic may have serious consequences in the future, especially for physicians in intensive branches such as cardiology, who have to serve large patient groups in like low and middle-income countries. It should not be ignored that female doctors working in these branches are more sensitive to burnout syndrome.

Abstract
Background: Cow’s Milk Allergy (CMA) is one of the most prevalent food allergies (FA) among infants. Gut microbiota dysbiosis has been related to the development of FA. The primary colonization of the gut microbiota occurs via maternal route. We hypothesized that a longitudinal influence in the composition of the gut microbiota, transmitted from mothers to offspring, could be directly related to CMA development. Methods: 148 faecal samples of 34 CMA and 16 control 0-8 month-old infants and their respective mothers and grandmothers were studied. Gut microbiota was profiled by 16S rRNA gene sequencing using the Illumina MiSeq platform. 16S rRNA sequencing analysis was performed using the DADA2 pipeline. Descriptive statistics of the epidemiological variables of the three generations were analysed. Statistical analyses were performed with R 3.4.0 software. Results : Mothers allergy status and smoking habits of mothers and grandmothers were associated to infant CMA. We found that adult gut microbiota is richer and more diverse than that of infants. Relative abundance of the Prevotellaceae family was significantly different between infant groups, and between hydrolysate-fed and formula-fed infants. Finally, the Bray-Curtis distance between members of the same family was independent of the allergy status. Conclusions: Microbiota from allergic children do not differ from non-allergic at the onset of allergy. Moreover, microbiota inheritance was similar in healthy and allergic infants. Maternal smoking and allergy status were the most significant epidemiological risk factors associated with CMA. Finally, microbiota composition of infants was influenced by diet and allergy status; however, these were confounded variables.
