Framing Architectural Identity of Aceh After Two Contemporary Events
Authors: Fadhil Muhammad Naufal , Putri Aji Sofiana 
Published: December 2024

<p><em>Socio-political conditions in a region have a substantial impact on architectural identity. Two contemporary events in Aceh: the 2004 tsunami and the Free Aceh Movement and the Republic of Indonesia conflict</em><em>, impacted socio-political circumstances and architectural identities. This study revisits the architecture after those two contemporary events in Aceh by examining the socio-political processes and dynamics underlying its architectural representations. The research incorporates literature, theoretical data, </em><em>and Aceh's architectural and urban history. This research also ties socio-political data to architectural phenomena after the two contemporary events. </em><em>This research frames two main periods of architectural history after two contemporary events, namely Post-Tsunami 2004 and Post-Conflict. In the post-tsunami 2004 period, there are three architectural phenomena: </em><em>the shifting perspective of safe and vulnerable places, the new 'Tsunami' typology, and the revival of the old typology. While in the post-conflict period, there are also three architectural phenomena: the search for Islamic architecture, the return of regionalism, and architecture anomalies.</em></p>

Published: December 2024

In order to evaluate ride performance of an electric vehicle (EV) active suspension systems (ASSs), a 8-DOF full-vehicle dynamic model of EV under random road excitation is set for control ASSs of EV to enhance ride comfort. A PID controller is proposed for control. The parameters of the PID controller are tuned using the Ziegler-Nichols method. The achieved results indicate that the root mean square (RMS) values of the vertical driver's seat, vehicle body, pitching and rolling acceleration responses with ASSs using the proposed controller respectively reduce by 31.12 %, 24.76 %, 15.00 %, and 11.59 % in comparison with passive suspension systems (PSSs) under the investigated condition. In addition, these results will be the basis for optimizing the parameters for PID controller to improve the ride performance of ASS.

Authors: Wang Wenjing , Zhao Lining , Cui Xiaolin 
Published: December 2024

In order to improve the strength and stiffness characteristics of truck carriage, a structural optimization scheme based on modal analysis was proposed, which could enhance the comprehensive mechanical performance while reducing weight. Based on finite element simulation, the natural frequencies and modal shapes of the carriage were obtained. Under braking conditions, piezoelectric accelerometer was used to capture vibration data of the suspension system, which also verified the accuracy of natural frequency calculation. Through sensitivity analysis, four dimensions of the side reinforcement were selected as design variables. The approximate model of the optimization objective was constructed using an approximation method, and multi-objective genetic algorithm was used to solve the design variables. The results show that the optimized structure can decrease the mass by 2.3 %, decrease the maximum stress by 10.9 %, and increase the first-order natural frequency by 23.4 %.

Published: December 2024

In order to improve the design level of pre-stressed hollow slab bridge beams, the airport 1# bridge was taken as the research object to study on the influence of guardrails on the mechanical properties of pre-stressed hollow plate beam bridges. On the basis of conducting overall structural verification, a solid model was established to analyze the influence of bridge deck guardrails on the mechanical behavior of cast-in-place joints in hollow slab bridges. Research shows that the maximum deflection and the maximum bending moment internal force decreases by 40 % and 14.5 %, respectively when taking into account the stiffness of the guardrail. However, the maximum shear force of the hollow slab edge joint and middle joint increases by 75 % and 14.5 %, respectively. The maximum shear force increases by 35.62 % when the height of the guardrail increases from 0.5 m to 2 m. The results indicate that the influence of bridge deck guardrails on the shear performance of slab hinge joints should be considered during the preliminary design stage of such bridges. The research results can provide reference for such structures.

Authors: Sun Hao , Wang Juan , Chi Wen 
Published: December 2024

To improve the rationality of the mechanical design of traditional ship anchor windlass, based on modal analysis, lightweight research was conducted on key components. Taking the first-order natural frequency as the constraint condition, topological optimization design was carried out for the base, and size optimization design based on the response surface algorithm was carried out for the anchor chain wheel. On the premise of meeting the overall structural strength and stiffness requirements of the anchor windlass, its weight was reduced as much as possible. Through the finite element analysis and strength check of the optimized model, it was verified that the optimization results met the design requirements. The research shows that the weight reduction rate of the base reached 13.34 %, and the weight reduction rate of the anchor sprocket reached 10.5 %. After analysis and verification, the optimized structure can still meet the overall mechanical performance of the anchor windlass and achieve the expected design goal, which also provides an important reference for the structural optimization and lightweight research of other ship equipment.

Authors: Chitra K K , Jat Rakesh Kumar 
Published: December 2024

The current study is done on plant extracts as antiepileptic medication in ayurvedic formulation. The convulsions are induced by electro shock therapy or picrotoxin, strychnine/brucine. After induction of convulsion the plant extract is administered as standard group, control group and simple group of six albino rats and the results are screened and analyzed with standard drug comparision. Pre-treatment of MEIR (methanolic extract of Ipomoea reniformis) for 15days at the dose of 200 and 400 milligram per kilogram body weight was used to evaluate antiepileptic activity. The antiepileptic activity was studied against seizures induced by Maximum electro shock (MES) in rats, Isoniazid (INH) and Pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) in mice.. In pre-treatment studies of antiepileptic activity, MEIR significantly (p<0.01) reduced the tonic hind limb extensor phase in MES model at 400milligram per kilogram body weight, while in INH, PTZ models at the dose of 200 and 400 milligram per kilogram body weight MEIR significantly (p<0.01) delayed the onset of clonic and tonic convulsions. The results of the Pr (+) study suggest that the MEIR possess antiepileptic activity in rats and mice. The results of each activites are compared with standard medicament and evaluated.

Formulation, Optimization and Characterization: Thermosensitive Intranasal Nanostructured Lipid Carrier (NLC) In-situ Gel of Novel Agomelatine to Overcome the Limitations of Oral Delivery
Authors: Zainab Nabeela , Basha Syed Abdul Azeez , Mannan Abdul 
Published: December 2024

Agomelatine (AG), the first-in-class melatonergic antidepressant used in Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), belongs to BCS Class-II with low oral bioavailability (<5%) due to extensive hepatic metabolism. This research work developed a thermosensitive in-situ gel using nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) for intranasal delivery as alternate route, aiming to bypass hepatic metabolism, enable controlled release, and enhance cerebral distribution. FTIR ensured compatibility with lipids, surfactants and polymers. AG-NLCs were synthesized utilizing hot high-speed homogenization with 5 mg agomelatine dose and optimized with 32 factorial design with total lipids (Precirol® ATO 5:Oleic acid – 70:30) and surfactant concentration (% of Poloxamer 188) as independent two-factor variables. The optimized AG-NLC (AF8) showed particle size of 159.3 nm, zeta potential of -37.0 mV, and 58.14% entrapment efficiency. AF8 was further fabricated into in-situ gels using thermosensitive polymer Poloxamer 407 and sodium alginate as mucoadhesive polymer, with NLCG-4 (with 8% Poloxamer 407) as the optimized in-situ gel formulation. NLCG-4 had 95.16±0.90% drug content, excellent viscosity (1690.65 ±0.40 cP at 37℃), and gelled at 33.24±0.11℃ in 10.3±0.38 seconds, ideal for nasal mucosa. NLCG-4 exhibited a complete, prolonged release of 100.01±0.2% over 6 h, and SEM images confirmed spherical particles without aggregation. The above findings suggest that thermosensitive NLC in-situ gel could be a potential novel approach for enhanced direct nose-to-brain delivery of agomelatine, bypassing first-pass metabolism to treat depression. Further in vivo investigations are ongoing to establish and justify clinical applicability of the novel system.

Authors: Dahal Prasanna , Thapa Rahi Bikram , Regmi Sushil , Magar Nabin Thapa 
Published: December 2024

Objectives: Herbal Products (HP) are commonly utilized for both medicinal and preventative purposes, however, there is a rising concern about their efficacy and safety in contemporary medical practice. The study aims to determine the perception and practice regarding HP among community pharmacists in Eastern Nepal.
Methods: A cross-sectional, quantitative study was conducted in the Jhapa, Morang, and Sunsari districts of Eastern Nepal. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire to assess pharmacists' perceptions and practices regarding herbal remedies.
Results: Pharmacy personnel from 246 community pharmacies participated in the study, in which the majority were male (78.9%), and had more than 3 years of experience (57.7%). 47.2% of respondents had shown a positive perception towards HP, whereas only 25.6% of respondents demonstrated good practices regarding herbal items at their pharmacy. Cough preparations (45.9%) and general health tonics (26.4%) were the most sold HP. Most participants (69.5%) believed HP is safe and effective, with 76% recommending the need for proper regulation. A significant number (84.1%) reinforced incorporating HP subjects in the pharmacy curriculum. In terms of practice, over half (51.2%) of pharmacy personnel sometimes dispensed HP, with 87.4% advising consumers on their use. A pharmacist perception was associated with pharmacy practice experience (p=0.020), and practice was linked with age, with better practices seen in those with age ≤30 years (p<0.001).
Conclusion: The study concludes that most community pharmacy personnel had poor perception and infrequent practice of herbal products in their pharmacy. The study recommends strict quality control, education, and regulation of herbal products to safely and effectively integrate HP in community pharmacy settings.

Feasibility of single low-dose olanzapine with triple antiemetic therapy for prevention of highly emetogenic chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting: a single-centre case series
Authors: Kamaraj Harish , Viswanathan Naveenraj , Jiju Ardhra , Viknesh R V , Kannan Ram Abhinav 
Published: December 2024

Background: Olanzapine works well as an antiemetic; however, it causes significant somnolence during the day and has additional side effects when used at a standard dose. Our goal was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of low-dose olanzapine in patients with different cancers following highly emetogenic treatment.
Patients and Methods: This study was a retrospective, single-centre study in an Indian comprehensive cancer centre. Eight patients between the ages of 46 and 70 receiving cisplatin, a high emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC) drug, were chosen for different types of cancers and had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance level of 0–2. Patients underwent chemotherapy after receiving a prophylactic low-dose oral olanzapine regimen (2·5 mg) in conjunction with a triple antiemetic treatment. In the overall phase (0–120 hours), complete response (CR) and complete control (CC) were the major endpoints. The secondary outcome assessed safety according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events V5.0 (CTCAE V5.0).
Results: All the studied patients were reported to have CR and CC. According to CTCAE v5.0, adverse effects grades varied from 0 to 1.
Interpretation: According to this study, prophylactic single low-dosage olanzapine (2·5 mg) was effective enough to prevent vomiting and nausea and reduce the incidence and severity of side effects in patients undergoing HEG; therefore, it should be deemed a new benchmark of care.
Keywords: Olanzapine, Cisplatin, Chemotherapy, Complete Control, Complete Response

Published: December 2024

The commercial development of Cavendish bananas still faces many obstacles, including the availability of seedlings/suckers at low prices, so technological substitution is needed to stimulate the growth of Cavendish banana suckers in the form of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) biological agents. The research aims to determine the correlation between AM doses and colonization levels, tissue nutrient concentrations, and photosynthetic pigments in Cavendish banana seedlings/suckers. It is also a novelty in this research study. The research was carried out in Parepare city at coordinates 3°59'30.204" S; 119°38'42.936" E using four AM doses as independent variables, namely 0 g, 5 g, 10 g, and 15 g pot-1. The variables observed (dependent variables) were the level of colonization, nutrient concentration in the tissue, and photosynthetic pigment content. Using Microsoft Excel software, statistical tests, regression, and correlation analyses were conducted to see the relationship between treatment (independent variable) and observed parameters (dependent variable). The research showed that AM dosage was positively correlated with the level of root colonization, the concentration of N, P, and K elements in the tissue, and the photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and carotenoids). A dose AM of 15 g pot-1 gave a better effect on Cavendish banana suckers, which can be recommended for the development of Cavendish banana seedlings.
Agronomic biofortification of Calcium in Pak choy (Brassica rapa subsp. chinensis) via hydroponic nutrient film technique
Authors: Zahro Regina Septiani , Faozi Khavid , Ulinnuha Zulfa , Sarjito Agus 
Published: December 2024

Pak choy is rich in calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, and vitamin K, all essential for health. Pak choy requires a proper balance of nutrients for optimal growth. In a hydroponic system, any imbalance in nutrient levels can negatively impact plant growth and reduce the nutritional value stored in the tissues. Selecting suitable varieties and providing appropriate calcium treatment can help increase calcium content and enhance productivity. This study aims to determine the effect of calcium concentration on growth, yield, and Ca content and the most responsive varieties to increased calcium concentration. The research design used was a Split Plot Design with two factors, namely calcium nitrate concentration (k) as the main plot consisting of k0 = without addition of Ca(NO3)2, k1 = addition of 300 mg/L Ca(NO3)2, k2 = addition of 600 mg/L Ca(NO3)2, k3 = addition of 900 mg/L Ca(NO3)2, and k4 = addition of 1200 mg/L Ca(NO3)2. Varieties (v) as subplots consist of v1 = Masbro, v2 = Nauli F1, and v3 = Flamingo. The results showed that the Nauli F1 variety had the best effect on the number of leaves, growth rate index, and fresh weight of shoots. Adding 900 mg/L of calcium nitrate had the best impact on plant growth, while adding 1200 mg/L of calcium nitrate caused plant poisoning. The Masbro variety was responsive to Ca biofortification.
