The Challenges of Education Based on Multicultural in National Local Culture Conservation in Globalization Era
Authors: Suradi Ahmad 
Published: September 2018

Abstrak: Artikel ini menganalisis tentang tantangan pendidikan berbasis multikultural dalam pelestarian budaya lokal nasional di era globalisasi. Metode yang digunakan untuk menganalisis masalah ini adalah studi pustaka dengan pendekatan kualitatif. Fenomena yang kini dihadapi masyarakat adalah perubahan sosial dan budaya yang sangat mendasar. Percepatan informasi gelombang globalisasi membawa perubahan signifikan dalam masyarakat, baik pada tingkat struktur luar (pola perilaku dan sikap) maupun struktur dalam (sistem nilai, pandangan hidup, filosofi dan keyakinan). Perubahan terjadi karena adanya kontak budaya antar negara yang ditafsirkan sebagai dialektika nilai-nilai baru dengan nilai-nilai lama yang mendominasi satu sama lain, yang memungkinkan homogenisasi dan neoliberalisasi di semua aspek kehidupan termasuk nilai-nilai budaya lokal yang telah menjadi pedoman masyarakat. Kondisi ini menimbulkan perubahan nilai karena masyarakat lebih mengagungkan nilai modern dengan mengesampingkan nilai transendental. Akibatnya ada berbagai bentuk penyimpangan nilai-nilai moral yang tercermin dalam gaya hidup masyarakat. Oleh karena itu, penguatan dan pewarisan nilai-nilai budaya lokal perlu dilakukan secara intensif untuk generasi muda.ملخص: حاول هذا المقال تحليل تحدّيّات التربية على أساس تعدديّة الثقافات في إبقاء الثقافة المحلية الوطنية في عصر العولمة. والطريقة المستخدمة للتحليل هي بحوث المكتبية بالمدخل النوعي. والظاهرة التى يواجهها الناس الآن هي التغير الاجتماعي والثقافي أساسيا. وسرعة أمواج معلومات العولمة تؤدّى إلى تغيّر هام في المجتمع سواء أكان في الجانب الخارجي (التصرفات والمواقف) أو الجانب الداخلي ( نظام القيمة، وفلسفة الحياة، والعقيدة). وقعت هذه التغيرات نتيجة الاتصال الثقافي بين البلدان وفُسرت هذه بالحوار بين القيم الجديدة والقيم القديمة السائدة فيما بينهم التي يمكن بها التجنيس وتكوين الليبرالية الجديدة في جميع نواحي الحياة، وفيها قيم الثقافة المحلية التي أصبحث توجيها للمجتمع. أدت هذه الحالة إلى تغيرات القيم، لأن المجتمع يفضّل القيم العصرية ويهمل الغيبيات. وأدت هذه إلى وجود عدول القيم الأخلاقية المتمثّلة في أسلوب حياة المجتمع. لذا فإن من المهم تقوية وتوريث القيم الثقافية المحلية المتواصلة للشباب.

Surface Energy Balance Partitioning in Tilled Bare Soils
Authors: Akuoko Ohene , Kool Dilia , Sauer Thomas J. , Horton Robert 
Published: September 2018

Core Ideas
Following tillage, soil bulk density increased after rainfall.
Increases in soil bulk density decreased the available energy for turbulent fluxes.
Surface energy balances in tilled soils are affected by changes in bulk density.
Surface energy balance (SEB) partitioning is critical to heat and water budgets at the soil–atmosphere interface. Tillage can alter SEB partitioning by initially decreasing soil bulk density (ρb), after which ρb increases with time due to rainfall and other factors. The objective of this study is to determine the effect of ρb changes on SEB partitioning. We measured SEB components for two 4‐d periods (Period 1 and Period 2) at an early‐tilled (T1) and late‐tilled (T2) bare soil site. During Period 1, ρb, net radiation, and soil heat flux were similar for T1 and T2, but evaporation was higher at T2. During Period 2, ρb was 0.11 g cm‾3 larger at T2 than at T1. This resulted in a 7% higher soil heat flux at T2, which in turn caused 13% less evaporation. These results highlight the importance of considering dynamic ρb with time when determining SEB partitioning for tilled soils.

Core Ideas
Grass–legume forage systems outperformed grass monocultures.
Arachis glabrata had greater potential for N2 fixation than other peanut species.
Grass enhanced its nutritive value and obtained N from legumes when grown in mixtures.
Bermudagrass hybrids (Cynodon spp.), such as Tifton 85, are among the most widely used forages for hay production in the southeastern United States, although large N fertilizer inputs are often required for sustained productivity. Grass–legume mixtures can reduce the need for N fertilization. The objective was to assess peanut species (Arachis spp.) as alternatives to N fertilizer. One annual species (Arachis hypogaea L. cv. TUFRunner ‘727’) and two perennials, pintoi peanut (A. pintoi Krap & W.C. Greg cv. ‘Amarillo’) and rhizoma peanut (RP; A. glabrata Benth., cv. ‘Florigraze’ and germplasm Ecoturf) were evaluated in Tifton 85 swards. Planting occurred in 2014 and mixtures were evaluated through 2016. Responses included herbage accumulation (HA), peanut proportion in HA, nutritive value, biological nitrogen fixation (BNF), %N derived from atmosphere (%Ndfa), and %N of grass N that was transferred from peanut. Ecoturf–grass mixtures had the greatest HA (900 kg DM ha−1 harvest−1), while TUFRunner 727–grass mixtures had the least (690 kg DM ha−1 harvest−1). Mixing peanuts with Tifton 85 increased in vitro digestible organic matter (IVDOM) concentration of the grass from 588 g kg−1 in monocultures to 620 g kg−1 in mixtures, but did not increase grass crude protein (CP) concentration. Contribution of Amarillo peanut was minimal throughout the study, TUFRunner 727 contributed significantly in the year of planting only, but RP contribution increased each year. Although peanut species were unable to replace the amount of N typically applied to bermudagrass hay fields, there is evidence RP in particular could contribute to mixture productivity and nutritive value.
Response of Soil Organic Carbon, pH, Electrical Conductivity, and Water Stable Aggregates to Long‐Term Annual Manure and Inorganic Fertilizer
Authors: Ozlu Ekrem , Kumar Sandeep 
Published: September 2018

Core Ideas
Long‐term annual application of manure maintained the soil pH but inorganic fertilizer decreased it.
Manure application increased soil organic carbon (SOC) and total nitrogen (TN).
Higher manure rate helps in improving the water stable aggregates compared to inorganic fertilizer at 0‐ to 10‐cm depth.
Manure enhances soil fertility and crop yield; however, an optimum rate of manure application is important to avoid any negative impacts to soils and the environment. This study was conducted to assess the long‐term impacts of manure and inorganic fertilizer rates on soil organic carbon (SOC), total nitrogen (TN), water stable aggregate (WSA), pH, and electrical conductivity (EC) under corn (Zea mays L.)‐soybean (Glycine max L.) rotation at Beresford (established in 2003) and Brookings (established in 2008), South Dakota (SD). Study treatments included low (LM), medium (MM) and high (HM) manure, medium (MF) and high (HF) inorganic fertilizer, and control (CK). Soil samples were extracted from four replicates at 0‐ to 10‐cm, 10‐ to 20‐cm, 20‐ to 30‐cm and 30‐ to 40‐cm depths from either site in 2015. Results showed that manure application maintained the soil pH at 0 to 10 cm depth; whereas, inorganic fertilizer decreased it compared to the control treatment at either site. The highest SOC concentrations at 0‐ to 10‐cm depth were observed under HM (38.3 g kg–1) as compared to that under MM (30.9 g kg–1), LM (27.6 g kg–1), MF application (24.0 g kg–1), HF (25.8 g kg–1) and CK (23.3 g kg–1). Furthermore, HM treatment significantly increased SOC for each depth increment from 0‐ to 40‐cm compared to the inorganic fertilizer at either site. A similar trend was observed for the TN but differences were not always significant. On an average, manure increased the EC (1.56 dS m–1) by 2.2 times compared to that of fertilizer (0.71 dS m–1) for 0‐ to 10‐cm depth. Similarly, manure significantly increased WSA by 7.2 and 5.6% compared to that of fertilizer at 0‐ to 10‐cm depth for Brookings and Beresford, respectively. Data from this study concluded that the long‐term annual application of manure improved selected soil properties compared to that of inorganic fertilizer.
A Direct‐Push Freezing Core Barrel for Sampling Unconsolidated Subsurface Sediments and Adjacent Pore Fluids
Authors: Trost Jared J. , Christy Thomas M. , Bekins Barbara A. 
Published: September 2018

Core Ideas
A direct‐push freezing core barrel (DPFCB) was developed and field tested.
The DPFCB is suitable for sampling in coarse, unconsolidated sediments.
The DPFCB freezes a 10‐ to 15‐cm plug that retains fluid and sediment in core sleeves.
The DPFCB is interchangeable with unsaturated zone sampling tool strings.
Contaminants passing through the unsaturated zone can undergo changes in narrow reaction zones upon reaching saturated sediments. Understanding these reactions requires sampling of sediment together with adjacent water and microbes in a manner that preserves in situ redox conditions. Use of a basket‐type core catcher for saturated, noncohesive sediments results in redistribution or loss of fluids during sample retrieval. Previously developed sample‐freezing drive shoes for hollow‐stem auger drilling rigs lessened fluid redistribution and retained all material that entered the core barrel in noncohesive sediment cores by freezing the base of the core with liquid CO2. This technology has not previously been compatible with direct‐push rigs that are commonly used for contaminated site assessments. Here, we describe a freezing core barrel designed for direct‐push rigs that is compatible with commercially available tool strings. The device can be used interchangeably with unsaturated‐zone direct‐push tool strings, enabling core collection for studies of contaminant transport and transformation spanning unsaturated to saturated profiles. In all 10 attempts during testing near Bemidji, MN, the device froze a 10‐ to 15‐cm (4–6‐in) plug that retained fluids and sediments in a 1.2‐m (4‐ft)‐long, 5.0‐cm (2.0‐in)‐diameter polyvinyl chloride (PVC) sleeve. Cores were collected from variably saturated sediments spanning the capillary fringe through the upper 2 m of the saturated zone in sandy glacial outwash sediments. The median recovery was 81% of the drive length, similar to a sample‐freezing drive shoe developed for a wire‐line piston core sampler operated with a hollow‐stem auger drill rig.

Authors: Yuan Wei-Feng , Zhao Xin-Xiang , Sun Wen-Jing , Wu Shao-Ping , Liu Ya-Bin , Tang Xi 
Published: September 2018

Background:
The exact morbidity of myocarditis is unknown, as the treatment is generally
delayed in virtue of misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis.

Aim:
The aim of this study was to identify prognostic factors of left-ventricular remodeling on
CMRI performed in patients with pathological proven myocarditis.

Methods:
Sixty-two cases with various presentations of myocarditis (39 cases with heart failure; 23
cases with arrhythmias) were selected. All patients, who underwent coronary angiography, endomyocardial
biopsy, were divided into positive-remodeling and negative-remodelling groups to analyse
LGE and cardiac cine parameters at presentation and subsequent to 3 months.

Results:
Comparison of two subgroups in CMRI is as follows: positive LGE (65.6% vs. 86.7%;
p<0.05), LVEF (41.3±14.8% vs. 37.6±10.1%; p=0.62), (25.7±2.0% vs. 24.0±2.5%; p=0.81),
(44.5±3.9mm vs. 46.3±5.4mm; p=0.76), (129.1±8.5ml vs. 135.3±12.2ml; p=0.26), (74.8±7.3ml vs.
79.1±10.0ml; p=0.55), (52.0±5.7g vs. 49.6±6.5g; p=0.71), (34.9±3.5ml vs. 32.4±6.2ml; p=0.68),
(3.8±0.7L/min vs. 3.1±0.5L/min; p=0.64), (2.9±0.6L/min*m2 vs. 2.7±0.5L/min*m2; p=0.79).

Conclusion:
LGE-MRI is rewarding as an independent predictor in left-ventricular positive and
negative remodelling of myocarditis.

Authors: Inal Zeynep Ozturk , Inal Hasan Ali , Altunkeser Aysegul , Alkan Ender , Arslan Fatma Zeynep 
Published: September 2018

Background:
To evaluate the hysterosalpingography (HSG) findings of women with infertility
in a tertiary center located in central Turkey.

Methods:
A total of 1,996 patients undergoing the HSG procedure for the investigation of infertility
from April 2012 to 2017 were retrospectively evaluated using the archives of the reproductive
endocrinology and radiology departments. Demographic and clinical characteristics of patients
with normal HSG findings (n = 1,549) and patients with abnormal HSG findings (n = 447) were
compared, and the distribution of pathologies on the HSG examinations was evaluated as well.

Results:
There were statistically significant differences between patients with normal and abnormal
HSG findings in terms of age (25.68 ± 4.54 vs. 35.87 ± 2.65, p < 0.001), type (for secondary) and
duration of infertility [43.1% vs. 50.6% (p = 0.006); 7 (1-22) vs. 2 (1-12) (p < 0.001), respectively],
and baseline follicle stimulating hormone and estradiol levels [7.22 ± 1.38 vs. 7.55 ± 1.42 (p <
0.001); 45.54 ± 9.92 vs. 44.40 ± 9.99 (p < 0.001), respectively]. Among a total of 1,996 HSG examinations,
447 (22.39%) showed abnormalities, of which 237 (11.87%) were associated with tubal
pathologies, 163 (8.17%) with uterine pathologies, and 47 (2.35%) with a combination of both.
While the most common tubal pathology was one-sided distal tubal occlusion (2.91%), the most
common uterine pathology was filling defects (4.16%).

Conclusion:
HSG is the most commonly used, well-tolerated, low-cost, and safe radiological procedure
to use for the investigation of the causes of female infertility.

Authors: Nasri Nejah , El Khediri Salim , Rached Mansour , Kachouri Abdennaceur 
Published: September 2018

Methods:By applying various techniques especially node balance set, the network lifetime is increased and delay is minimized. To accomplish node balance set, Cluster Head (CH) determination mechanism is implemented and clustering based load balanced is established. Further, the enactment of the anticipated designs is established through simulations in the circumstance of scalable data transmission in a WSN.Results & Conclusion:Hypothetical study and experimental simulations are studied by various performance evaluation metrics namely clock offset, number of transmitted messages, delayed messages and Residual Energy. The results confirm that clustering with node balance set saves more energy in WSN and also it reduces synchronization errors.Background:In a Wireless Sensor Network, one of the important issues is minimizing energy consumption without losing accuracy during data transmission. Communication must be released in an optimized way, which enhances energy efficiency in the networks.
The Calculation and Optimization Research of Renewable Energy Investment Efficiency under Uncertain Conditions
Authors: Yi Tao , Zhang Yifan , Guo Yanfeng 
Published: September 2018

Background:
In the renewable energy investment market, there are risks such as fossil fuel price fluctuations, environmental risks caused by pollutant emissions, electricity price fluctuations caused by energy policies, and so on, which bring certain difficulties to measure the investment efficiency.

Methods:
In this regard, the paper applies the portfolio theory to the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model to evaluate investment efficiency. First of all, the Monte Carlo method is used to simulate the four uncertain factors of fuel unit price, feed-in tariff, annual operating hours, and carbon price, so as to quantitatively measure the risk and return of different power generation. According to the portfolio theory, it evaluates the portfolio risks and returns, respectively as input and output indicators, so as to build a Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model to estimate investment efficiency.

Conclusion:
The simulation and experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the presented method. In details, we select a poor efficiency sample, and then, we propose an optimization measure to improve the efficiency. By adjusting the proportion of its investment, the result proves that increasing the proportion of renewable energy can realize optimization and validity of renewable energy investment. Thus, it provides auxiliary support for the investment decision of renewable energy and realizes the coordinated allocation and efficient utilization of renewable energy.
Clinical Efficacy in Relieving Dentin Hypersensitivity of Nanohydroxyapatite-containing Cream: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Authors: Amaechi Bennett T. , Lemke Kelly C. , Saha Shyamali , Gelfond Jonathan 
Published: September 2018

Objective:The study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Apadent Pro (Sangi) Nanohydroxyapatite (nHAP) dental cream to relieve Dentin Hypersensitivity (DHS), compared with a positive control cream containing 20% pure silica (Silica).Methods:In this double-blind, randomized, parallel-group clinical trial, patients diagnosed with DHS and qualified to participate were randomized into two groups, nHAP (n=25) and Silica (n=26). Subjects’ baseline and posttreatment sensitivity were assessed using two pain scales, a four-point Dental Pain Scale (DPS) followed by a linear Visual Analog Scale (VAS), after the application of ice-cold and air stimuli. Subjects used custom-fabricated trays to apply their respective cream for 5 minutes once daily following brushing with standard fluoride toothpaste. Posttreatment sensitivity (efficacy) was assessed every 2 weeks for 8 weeks. Mean treatment outcomes (percentage change from baseline) at each time point were compared using the Tukey HSD test for multiplicity (P<0.05).Results:With either air or cold stimulus, VAS and DPS indicated a significant (P<0.001) reduction in DHS at each time point with either nHAP or Silica. Comparing pain scales, VAS showed no significant difference in DHS reduction between the products with either air or cold. However, with DPS, DHS reduction was significantly (P<0.05) better with Silica than with nHAP at all time points with cold, and at 2, 4, and 8 weeks with air.Conclusion:Both Apadent Pro nHAP and Silica dental creams are effective at promoting the relief of DHS symptoms. When comparing the efficacy of the two compounds to relieve DHS, results of the two pain scales were conflicting.
