Student dropout from universities in Europe: A review of empirical literature
Authors: Kehm Barbara M. , Larsen Malene Rode , Sommersel Hanna Bjørnøy 
Published: August 2020

This contribution is based on an extensive literature review of student dropout in Europe, which was carried out by a research group of the Danish Clearinghouse for Education in cooperation with an international expert group in 2012/2013. The review served to answer three basic questions: What is dropout? Why does it occur? What can be done to reduce or prevent it? Only empirical studies were included in the review and altogether 44 studies were included. The article points out that student dropout is a more complex and multidimensional issue than most people think and that it is important to distinguish between formal dropout (i.e., leaving university studies altogether before degree completion) and transfer (i.e., changing subject and/or institution). The review summarizes and discusses the main results of the 44 studies included in terms of nine dimensions: (a) study conditions at university, (b) academic integration at university, (c) social integration at university, (d) personal efforts and motivations for studying, (e) information and admission requirements, (f) prior academic achievement in school, (g) personal characteristics of the student, (h) sociodemographic background of the student, and (i) external conditions. The conclusions provide an answer to the three questions posed above and include recommendations for further research, university leadership, and policymakers.
Which ways of evaluation of education for sustainability is acceptable for Hungarian teachers?
Authors: Varga Attila , Könczey Réka 
Published: August 2020

By what criteria and how can the efficiency of education for sustainable development (ESD) be assessed or measured? Theoretical and political definitions of teacher competencies for ESD are only the first steps in the implementation process of these competencies throughout the educational system. If we want to develop an effective evaluation system of ESD, a diagnosis is needed about which ways of evaluation are accepted by teachers and which competencies needed further developments. Our research has been conducted to map teachers’ views about the possible ways to evaluate ESD. An online questionnaire was used to gain data about teachers’ view on different types of ESD evaluation. On the basis of the results, a three-level ESD evaluation system seems generally and professionally appropriate: (a) introducing ESD competencies in the mainstream teacher evaluation processes, (b) initiating awards and other appraisal system for innovative ESD teachers and schools, and (c) periodic external assessment of pupils’ and teachers’ preparedness of sustainability-related issues.

Published: August 2020

Abstract
Spatial distribution of seismic intensity plays an important role in emergency response during and immediately after an earthquake. In this study, we propose a deep learning model to predict the seismic intensity based on only the observation records at the seismic stations in a surrounding area. The deep learning model is trained using the observation records at both the input and target stations, and no geological information is used. Once the model is developed, for example, using the data from a temporal seismic array, the model can spatially interpolate the seismic intensity from the sparse layout of the seismic stations. The model consists of long short-term memory cells, which are well-established neural network components for time series analysis. We used observed seismograms in 1996 through 2019 at the Kyoshin Network (K-NET) and Kiban–Kyoshin Network (KiK-net) stations located in the northeastern part of Japan. In our deep learning model, approximately 85% of validation data is successfully classified into seismic intensity scales, which is better than adopting either the maximum or weighted average of the input data. We also apply the deep learning model to earthquake early warning (EEW). The model can predict the seismic intensity accurately and provides a long warning time. We concluded that our approach is a possible future solution for increasing the accuracy of EEW.
Automatic Detection of Amplitude-Distorted Samples from Clipped Seismic Waveforms
Authors: Wang Shuqin , Zhang Jinhai 
Published: August 2020

AbstractSeismic waveforms are essential for seismology but are clipped when their actual amplitudes are too high to be faithfully recorded by seismometers. The clipping effects are popular for both big earthquakes and small earthquakes within a short epicentral distance. Here, we illustrate potential risks of direct usage of clipped waveforms by examining the frequency leakage and show the failure of bandpass filtering for different clipping levels; then we summarize two characteristics of clipped records: (1) The temporal gradient is unusually large around the clipped segment compared with the unclipped portions, and (2) the clipped samples cluster into one segment or several if many samples are involved. Next, we propose three criteria for distinguishing clipped samples from the perfect samples based on these two characteristics. Finally, we design a numerical algorithm for automatic detection of clipped samples using constraints on the gradient, amplitude, and gradient-varying range. Numerical experiments show the excellent performance of our algorithm on automatically detecting the clipped samples. Our algorithm seamlessly integrates all necessary constraints for both flat-top type and back-to-zero type and thus can correctly recognize these two types simultaneously; in addition, it is basically data driven and thus can work well without considering seismometer configuration and instrument type, which would be helpful for real-time detection of clipped records without interruption from human operations. As a robust and swift tool of automatic detection on amplitude-clipped samples, our algorithm could identify most typical clipped records and reduce potential risks due to using unrecognizable clipped waveforms; furthermore, it would be helpful for fast detection and possible restoration of clipped waveforms in the presence of huge volumes of data.
Takayasu arteritis: a comprehensive review of literature
Authors: Bishnoi Ravin K. , Devi Shivani , Rai Shivani , . Gunjot 
Published: August 2020

Takayasu arteritis is an inflammatory pulseless disease of large arteries with unknown etiology which advances in three stages i.e. early systemic, vascular, and burnout stage. It is more prevalent in Asian women of childbearing age. Hypertension, fever, weight loss, arthralgia, limb claudication, light-headedness, and arterial pain are common manifestations. Angiography is a gold standard test to evaluate TA. There is no reliable serological marker has been identified. Control on the inflammatory process and hypertension are two imperative angles to treat the disease. Steroids are most used. Reconstructive surgeries are limited to severe and stenotic lesions. This review aims to report comprehensive evidence about Takayasu arteritis. We conducted an integrative review of theoretical and empirical publications reporting epidemiology, etiopathogenesis, classification, diagnostic evaluation, and management of TA. The authors searched PubMed, Embase, and Scopus until March 2020. A total of 1104 records found, we included 37 papers for review after reading the articles. Remaining was excluded because of no innovative content, insufficient details, and no clear endpoints. This review of the literature presents comprehensive evidence in all fields of TA. Still, large areas need to be studied for better management of patients with TA.

Relevance.The article presents the results of studying the economic and biological indicators of various coriander samples planted at the Absheron Experimental Base of the Genetic Resources Institute in the autumn and spring, to select the most promising of them and determine the optimal sowing dates that ensure production for most of the year. Material and methods. The research material was the seeds of 5 coriander samples (Coriandrum sativum L.) from various early maturity groups introduced on Absheron: Ordubad (cat. No. 31); Iranian (Cat. No. 87); Azerbaijani (cat. No. 157); Dagestan (cat. No. 171); Borchali (cat. No. 167). When carrying out phenological observations, the onset of economic suitability, bolting, flowering and seed maturation was noted. The total yield from the plot was determined.Results. Phenological observations have shown that depending on the date of coriander samples sowing, the duration of the vegetation period and individual phases of development changed. Sowing dates also significantly affected the early maturity and productivity of the samples, but for different samples to varying degrees. Optimal for the Absheron part of Azerbaijan is the timing of sowing coriander from mid-March to the end of April and in September. The most promising were the coriander samples: Azerbaijan (cat. No. 157), Dagestan (cat. No. 171) and Iranian (cat. No. 87). Sowing at the optimum time of the most productive varieties with a long period of harvest can ensure the uninterrupted supply of fresh coriander greens for most of the year.
ANTIFUNGAL ACTIVITIES OF MAULI BANANA STEM AND BASIL LEAVES EXTRACT MIXTURE AGAINST Candida albicans
Authors: Kamalia Nor , Apriasari Maharani Laillyza , Wasiaturrahmah Yusrinie 
Published: August 2020

ABSTRACTBackground: Mauli banana stem and basil leaves are natural ingredients that have the potential to be used as a treatment for Candida albicans infections. The methanol extract of mauli banana stem with 25% concentration is merely fungistatic which is still not capable to induce fungicidal effect, while the 100% concentration is known to be less effective than 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate. Adding basil leaves extract to mauli banana stem extract is expected to increase antifungal activities against Candida albicans. Purpose: to analyze the antifungal activity of mauli banana stem and basil leaves extract mixture with concentrations of 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% and 100% against Candida albicans by dilution method. Method: This research used a true experimental method with a pretest–posttest control group design consisting of 11 treatments to obtain Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC). Result: The 10% concentration was identified as the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC), and no concentration could be classified as the Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) because all treatment group still exhibited Candida albicans growth on the SDA medium. Conclusion: Mauli banana stem and basil leaves extract mixture has an MIC value of 10% and does not demonstrate any value for the MBC.

ABSTRACTBackground : Gingival enlargement, a terminology for an increase in the size of the gingiva, is a general feature of gingival dis­eases. Gingival melanin pigmentation does not present a medical problem, but is likely to generate a concern in aesthetic function. Although melanin pigmentation is not a chief complain, this condition still need to be corrected. Clinicians are often confronted with a challenge in achieving gingival esthetics. Purpose : This case report aims to explain how to achieve esthetical and functional demands in gingival enlargement and gingival hyperpigmentation case with gingivectomy and gingival depigmentation. Case: This surgical procedure aim to retain esthetical and functional demands. Case Management: An 18-years-old male presenting with maxillary chronic inflam­matory gingival enlargement associated with prolonged orth­odontic therapy is reported. Orthodontic appliances are factors for irritation and plaque retention that interfere oral hygiene and regulate gingival inflammation. Surgical therapy was performed to provide a better aesthetic outcome and prevent plaque retention. Conclusion: The combination of gingivectomy and gingival depigmentation can resolve gingival enlargement and gingival hyperpigmentation perfectly with close proximity to the ideal gingival condition.Keyword : Gingival depigmentation, Gingivectomy, Orthodontic

Published: August 2020

The Role of Accommodation and Food Service Industry which is measured by its contribution, employment and its affecting factors, employment elasticity, as well as labor productivity towards economy, particulary tourism, has not been optimised. This research aims to analyse: (1) the impact of Provincial Minimum Wage (PMW), Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP), the Number of Businesses, and Inflation on employment in Accommodation and Food Service Industry; (2) its contribution toward economy, employment, employment elasticity, and labor productivity in the given industry. The analytical tools used in this research are Descriptive Statistics and Pooled Data Regression Model (FEM and REM Approaches). The data being analysed is secondary data series 2014-2018 and cross sectional which is taken (provinces in Jawa-Bali) and respective to this research problem and goal. The result shows that the factors influencing employment rate positively and significantly are GRDP and inflation, whilst those affecting insignificantly are PMW and the number of businesses. The average contribution during 2015-2018 was 7.43% annually, whereas in Bali and DIY, the contribution was 23.17% and 10.21%, respectively. The employment rate per business averaged to 497 people with the average growth of employment in the given industri of about 14.22% annually. The employment elasticity was 0.63 and labor productivity per person averaged to IDR 84.99 million higher than national average of IDR 53.84 million/person in 2018. Consequently, in order to increase output, high multiplier effect in economy, stable inflation (3%-4% annually), and prudential PMW policy are required
