Drought constitutes a significant natural disaster with profound implications for agricultural productivity, economic stability, and ecological balance. Batam is one of the cities experiencing a high level of drought. At the end of 2022, Batam is actually on the verge of drought. The purpose of this study is to find out information on the distribution of potential for drought in Batam and the dominant factors affecting the potential for drought occurred using NDVI and TCT algorithms. This research employed remote sensing and GIS techniques, using Landsat 8 images to acquire parameters from NDVI, TCT, and Rainfall data, which are then processed through scoring and overlaying. The final step was to validate the vegetation index parameter by taking the coordinates. The final result is a map of the potential for drought in Batam, consisting of 5 classes of potential for drought. The area with a very low potential for drought was located mostly in Sagulung, with an area of 2.661,89 Ha. The areas with low potential for drought were mostly located in Nongsa, Batam Center, Batu Ampar, Bengkong, Lubuk Baja, and Batu Aji, with an area of 7.175,22 Ha. The areas with a very high potential for drought were mostly located in Galang, Bulang, and Belakang Padang, with an area of 19.744,76 Ha. The area with moderate potential for drought was mostly located in Sungai Beduk, with an area of 22.122,71 Ha. The areas with high potential for drought were mostly located in Galang and Bulang, with an area of 35.663,89 Ha. It is concluded from the results of this research that the collective classification of high and very high drought potential levels covers up to 64% of the entire research area.

Published: November 2024

Changes in water temperature impact the dynamics of lake ecosystems. Changing climate factors, including wind speed and air temperature, influence the water temperature of lakes. This research aims to analyze the response of water temperature to wind speed and air temperature in Lake Laut Tawar. Observations were conducted from August to September 2023, with a sampling frequency of every two weeks. The results revealed that water temperature, wind speed, and air temperature in Lake Laut Tawar fluctuated according to the presence of light, namely day and night factors. Variations in sunlight intensity lead to hourly fluctuations in air temperatures, while wind speeds vary hourly due to changes in air pressure, consequently resulting in hourly variations in water temperature as well. During daylight hours, air temperature surpasses water temperature, whereas during nighttime hours, water temperature exceeds air temperature. Heat transfer from the air to the water contributes to an increase in water temperature, while the release of heat energy from the surface water into the air leads to a decrease in water temperature. Changes in the water temperature of Lake Laut Tawar are primarily influenced by changes in wind speed and air temperature by 80 percent simultaneously. However, while air temperature showed a partial response, wind speed did not exhibit a significant response. The relationship between these variables can be expressed through a mathematical model Tw = 0.356 Ta + 0.025 W + 15.674, where Tw is water temperature (°C), Ta is air temperature (°C), and W is wind speed (km/minute). Another factor that influences the water temperature of Lake Laut Tawar is the inlet water temperature, which was not observed in this research.

Published: November 2024

Ponelo Island is located in the northern part of Sulawesi, which is still an enigma regarding the genesis of the volcanic rocks found on this island. Therefore, the objective of this study is to understand the petrogenesis and tectonic implication of these volcanic rocks. Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) to obtain trace and rare earth elements is the method of this study. The volcanic rocks found on Ponelo Island consist of basalt and basaltic andesite rocks with a calc-alkaline affinity. The transition data suggested a highly fractionated cause of low transition element (Ni=17-38 ppm; Cr=13-47) compared to primary magma concentration, anomalies negative of Ba, Sr, and Ti of spider diagrams, and negative anomaly of Eu (Eu/Eu*=0.88-0.99). Relationship between low concentration between Ce/Y (0.74-0.76) and La/Yb vs Sm/Yb ratio indicated ~5% spinel-lherzolite mantle source partial melting. On the other hand, incompatible element ratios, such as Ba/Nb (39.03-45.28), Ba/Th (75.52-82.67), Rb/Nb (3.93-6.22), K/Nb (1772.22-2703.45), Ba/La=13.67-14.57, Th/La (0.17-0.18), La/Nb (2.91-3.16), depleted Nb/U (6-6.74), and also lack of xenolith or enclaves indicate cryptic crustal contamination. The slab-derived fluid indicated by ratios of Rb/Y (0/019-0/05), Nb/Y (0.10-0.11), Th/Yb (0.52-0.61), and Ba/La ratio (13.29-14.57). Ponelo volcanic rocks shows typical calc-alkaline island arc tectonic setting particularly with enrichment in ion lithophile element (LILE) and light rare earth elements (LREE) along with depletion in high field strenght elements (HFSE) and heavy rare earth elemets (HREE), as shown by spider diagrams.
Paroles d’enseignants autour de l’inclusion scolaire en France et au Québec

Published: November 2024

L’article « Paroles d’enseignants autour de l’inclusion scolaire en France et au Québec » permet de regarder ce que l’école, inclusive de fait, peut générer comme discours, sentiments voire réactions de la part d’enseignants de deux continents différents. Prendre en considération leurs récits et les vulnérabilités ainsi dévoilées donne l’occasion de révéler quelques freins et leviers. Ainsi, formation, soutien, risques psycho-sociaux, accessibilité et conception universelle de l’apprentissage sont des paramètres à explorer. Le but n’est pas de rejeter l’inclusion mais bien de comprendre ce qui l’obère ou la conditionne de manière à tendre vers l’inclusivité, non pas qu’à l’École, mais bien dans nos sociétés. Cela conduit donc, forcément, à interroger l’existence d’une action commune de toutes les institutions et de tous les citoyens.

Trajetórias de Clio: França e Brasil (1870-1945)
Authors: Malafaia Wolney Vianna 
Published: November 2024

Esse artigo pretende enfocar a construção da disciplina História no Brasil, primeiramente como disciplina integrante dos currículos de ensino primário e secundário; posteriormente, dentro de um quadro mais amplo do processo de formação dos cursos universitários na década de 1930. Efetivamente, convém lembrar o profundo vínculo existente entre a disciplina História e os debates políticos e as transformações econômicas e sociais verificadas nas sociedades nessas diferentes épocas. No caso brasileiro, mais especificamente, a afirmação da República e, posteriormente, a construção de uma nova base política hegemônica, a partir de 1930, produzem a necessidade de se repensar o papel do historiador e da história como disciplina. Tal necessidade vem a ser complementada com a reestruturação dos cursos superiores no Brasil e o advento das universidades. Nesse momento, convém destacar a relação Brasil/França nos debates produzidos na sociedade francesa, com imediata repercussão nos meios intelectuais brasileiros, e porque, é justamente nesse período, década de 1930, que vieram ao Brasil as Missões Francesas, com o objetivo de participar da construção dos nossos cursos superiores, em maior medida na cidade do Rio de Janeiro, então capital federal, e, em segundo lugar, em São Paulo, que já se constituía como centro econômico do país.

ObjectivesThis study aimed to investigate the association between the weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) and the prevalence of hypertension in U.S. adults.MethodsData were sourced from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) spanning 2005–2018. In our cross-sectional study, we focused on the non-institutional U.S. population over the age of 18 from various communities in the United States. WWI is derived by dividing waist circumference by the square root of body weight. The definition of hypertension was based on self-reported history of hypertension, antihypertensive drug use, and blood pressure measurements. Participants without complete information on WWI and hypertension were excluded. The independent relationship and consistency between WWI and hypertension were assessed through weighted multivariate regression. The Pearson correlation test was used to detect the association between WWI and BMI. Subgroup analyses were used to verify the stability of the relationship between WWI and the prevalence of hypertension, and interaction tests were also conducted by gender, age, smoking, and triglycerides.ResultsAmong the 37,299 participants included, the hypertension prevalence was 33.9%. After adjusting for confounding variables, WWI demonstrated a significant association with hypertension. Individuals in the top quarter of WWI had a 2.27fold higher chance of hypertension prevalence compared with the bottom quarter (OR = 2.27, 95% CI 1.97–2.61; P &lt; 0.0001). Subgroup analysis highlighted that this association was particularly pronounced in males aged ≤60 years.ConclusionThe findings underscore a robust correlation between elevated WWI and a heightened risk of hypertension, especially in males aged ≤60 years.

ObjectiveAbdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a life-threatening vascular condition. This study aimed to discover new indicators for the early detection of AAA and explore the possible involvement of immune cell activity in its development.MethodsSourced from the Gene Expression Omnibus, the AAA microarray datasets GSE47472 and GSE57691 were combined to generate the training set. Additionally, a separate dataset (GSE7084) was designated as the validation set. Enrichment analyses were carried out to explore the underlying biological mechanisms using Disease Ontology, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes, and Gene Ontology. We then utilized weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) along with 3 machine learning techniques: least absolute shrinkage and selection operator, support vector machine-recursive feature elimination, and random forest, to identify feature genes for AAA. Moreover, data were validated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, with feature genes defined as those having an area under the curve above 85% and a p-value below 0.05. Finally, the single sample gene set enrichment analysis algorithm was applied to probe the immune landscape in AAA and its connection to the selected feature genes.ResultsWe discovered 72 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) when comparing healthy and AAA samples, including 36 upregulated and 36 downregulated genes. Functional enrichment analysis revealed that the DEGs associated with AAA are primarily involved in inflammatory regulation and immune response. By intersecting the result of 3 machine learning algorithms and WGCNA, 3 feature genes were identified, including MRAP2, PPP1R14A, and PLN genes. The diagnostic performance of all these genes was strong, as revealed by the ROC analysis. A significant increase in 15 immune cell types in AAA samples was observed, based on the analysis of immune cell infiltration. In addition, the 3 feature genes show a strong linkage with different types of immune cells.ConclusionThree feature genes (MRAP2, PPP1R14A, and PLN) related to the development of AAA were identified. These genes are linked to immune cell activity and the inflammatory microenvironment, providing potential biomarkers for early detection and a basis for further research into AAA progression.

IntroductionThis study aims to explore the mechanisms by which the digital economy influences urban carbon emissions in China, with a particular focus on potential threshold effects and the mediating role of technology. As the digital economy grows, it impacts various environmental metrics, including carbon emissions, necessitating a deeper understanding of its nonlinear dynamics and implications for sustainable urban development.MethodsUsing panel data from 286 prefecture-level cities in China spanning from 2012 to 2021, we apply threshold effect models and mediation effect tests. The threshold effect model is employed to investigate non-linear characteristics of the digital economy’s impact on carbon emissions, while the mediation effect model assesses the role of technology as an intermediary in this relationship.ResultsThe threshold effect model reveals a single threshold in the impact of the digital economy on urban carbon emissions, indicating a nonlinear relationship. Initially, the influence of the digital economy on emissions is weak, but as the digital economy develops, its effect becomes more pronounced. The mediation effect model demonstrates that technological advancement can offset the increase in emissions associated with digital economic growth, thus showcasing technology’s potential to mitigate environmental impacts.DiscussionThe findings suggest that while the digital economy generally promotes urban carbon emissions, its impact is non-linear and mitigatable through technological innovation. To curb emissions in urban areas, fostering technological innovation and supporting green technology research and development are critical. Moreover, enhancing management and supervision within the digital economy sector can contribute to balancing economic growth with environmental goals. These insights are valuable for policymakers striving to harmonize digital economic expansion with sustainable environmental practices.

IntroductionOver-the-counter (OTC) medications are those obtained without a medical prescription from a healthcare professional. With the increasing availability of information from various sources, including social media, pharmacy students may be exposed to unreliable or inaccurate data. Incorrect medication use is particularly concerning due to its potential risk of causing adverse health effects.” Hence, this study aims to determine students’ knowledge and attitudes at Taif University’s pharmacy college.MethodsThis research utilized a cross-sectional online questionnaire-based study, employing data from a sample of 450 pharmacy students from Taif University in Saudi Arabia. Descriptive analysis included descriptive and differential analysis. The data were analyzed using statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) Version 27.ResultsThe majority of participants, 297 (88.2%), were aware that inappropriate use of over-the-counter medications might have negative implications. A total of 233 participants (51.8%) reported having previously used an OTC medication. Also, 293 (65.1%), were aware that using OTC medications beyond their expiration date was harmful. A total of 280 participants (62.2%) had a high knowledge of OTC medication, whereas 170 respondents (37.8%) had a low level of knowledge. A significant correlation was found between age, year of study, and the use of OTC medication p-values &lt;0.05 (0.016*, 0.003*, and 0.001* respectively) and understanding of OTC medication. Gender had no significant influence on knowledge of OTC (p &gt; 0.05).ConclusionThe study found positive attitudes toward OTC medications. Due to increased pharmaceutical exposure and self-medication, upper-year students and OTC course graduates comprehend OTC medications better. The examination found safety protocol violations in expiration dates, prescription label interpretation, and storage. Therefore, the study provides useful information for future attempts. Also, this study may contribute to the literature and guide future research to fill knowledge gaps.
