Published: November 2024

Introduction: Hyperuricemia is a significant risk factor for the development of chronic kidney disease. Excessive uric acid can deposit in the kidneys, triggering inflammatory reactions and oxidative stress, leading to structural damage in the glomeruli. Black garlic, with its antioxidant and bioactive compounds, has the potential to protect the kidneys from hyperuricemia-induced damage. Our objective is to evaluate the effect of black garlic supplementation on the histopathological features of glomeruli in a hyperuricemic rat model.
Methods: This study was an analytical observational study using Biological Remnant Materials (BRM) from a previous study. The sample consisted of 30 male Sprague-Dawley rats divided into 5 groups: disease control, drug control (allopurinol), and 3 black garlic dose groups (240 mg/day, 480 mg/day, and 960 mg/day). Data were collected through histopathological examination of kidney tissue using the glomerular damage scoring method (0-3). Data analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA and post hoc LSD tests.
Results: Black garlic demonstrated protective effects on the histopathological features of glomeruli in hyperuricemic rats. The 240 mg/day dose showed the most significant improvement in kidney health, reducing glomerular damage scores compared to the disease control group (p < 0.05). These findings suggest that black garlic can serve as a preventive agent against kidney complications caused by hyperuricemia.
Conclusion: Black garlic provides protective effects on glomerular histopathology in hyperuricemic rats, with the 240 mg/day dose being the most effective. These results suggest potential use for black garlic in preventing kidney complications in hyperuricemia.

Published: November 2024

Semigenetta Helbing, 1927 is a small genet-like carnivoran in the family Viverridae Gray, 1821. The genus has a modest diversity in the Miocene of Eurasia. With its first documentation going back to 1850s, the European records are relatively continuous with five currently recognized species. Asian records have a much shorter history of studies with its first record, S. huaiheensis Qiu & Gu, being published in 1986. In the present paper, we review the Asian records of Semigenetta from China and Thailand, which so far are represented by three species based on fragmentary jaws and teeth. We recognize two new species, S. qiae n. sp. from the late Miocene (c. 6.2-6.9 Ma) of Lufeng Basin in central Yunnan Province, South China and S. thailandica n. sp. from the middle Miocene (13.4-13.2 Ma) of Mae Moh Basin in Lampang Province, northern Thailand. Zoogeographically, both S. huaiheensis and S. thailandica n. sp. seem traceable to their European ancestors, as independent immigration events. Semigenetta thailandica n. sp. may have given rise to S. qiae n. sp., i.e., S. thailandica n. sp. and S. qiae n. sp., both recovered from lignitic sediments, potentially form a southeast Asian clade. All Asian Semigenetta occur within the Oriental zoogeographic province, and like their European counterparts, presumably prefer warm, humid, and wooded environments. Their relatively conservative morphology and low diversity seem also indicative of a stable environment in subtropical refugia. Semigenetta qiae n. sp. from Lufeng is the last survivor of the genus in Asia.

É um artigo importante, para se ter base do que se trata o teatro lambe-lambe, para então seguir as discussões que têm movimentado a comunidade lambeira e que fazem parte também das artes cenográficas.
The Fourth Cognitive R/Evolution
Authors: Flatt Steve 
Published: November 2024

Humans are at a turning point in their evolution. Many individuals and groups realise that there is need for change. This paper illustrates the difficulties evolution has created in human thinking, consequently producing many of the hurdles we face today. Linear problem-solving thinking is no longer adequate when creating a sustainable ecology, economy or society. Humans must look beyond the problem, and be creative about what kind of a world is wanted. Resolving problems using competition and conflict is not effective. Effective change will only take place by using cooperation, community and connection to develop a sustainable world. The paradigm shift in thinking is from problem-focused to possibility-focused approaches.

Authors: Mandavia Khushi , Vaghela Krishna , Vidani Jignesh 
Published: November 2024

This study investigates consumer satisfaction regarding online versus offline shopping for clothes among Generation Z in Ahmedabad, aiming to understand their preferences, behaviors, and concerns. Using a survey-based approach, the research analyzes key factors influencing their shopping experiences, such as trust, convenience, security, product quality, variety, fit, and customer service. The findings reveal that while Generation Z appreciates the convenience, discounts, and variety offered by online shopping, they still express concerns about security and confidence in product quality and fit. Offline shopping, on the other hand, is preferred for its reliability in assessing product quality, fit, and personalized customer service. The study also highlights the hybrid nature of Generation Z's shopping behavior, with many consumers using both online and offline channels based on the advantages each provides. These insights suggest that retailers should adopt an omnichannel approach, integrating online and offline experiences to enhance customer satisfaction. The practical implications for retailers include improving online security, navigation, and return processes, while maintaining high-quality in-store experiences. Recommendations for future research include expanding the study to other regions, investigating the role of emerging technologies, and exploring the impact of sustainability and ethics on shopping preferences

Published: November 2024

Using the multi-objective optimization method based on ratio analysis (MOORA), the purpose of this research is to develop a decision support system that will help the selection process of permanent employees at PT XYZ. In order to improve the productivity and operational efficiency of the company, a proper employee selection process is essential. Nonetheless, many factors influence the decision taken, which is often subjective. Therefore, a systematic approach is needed to help managers assess and select potential employees based on predefined standards. The MOORA method was chosen because it is able to provide optimal solutions for a variety of different criteria. The identification of employee selection criteria, the collection of employee candidate data, and the use of the MOORA method to generate employee candidate rankings are all actions performed in this study. The criteria used include work experience, education The purpose of this research is to create a system that supports the process, skills, and attitudes in decision making. The results of this system show that MOORA has the ability to provide more objective and transparent recommendations in the employee selection process than conventional methods. The results of the analysis show that this system helps decision making and increases managers' confidence in choosing employees who match the company's needs. PT XYZ hopes to use this decision support system to reduce errors in the employee selection process and help achieve the company's strategic goals. It is hoped that this research will help the process of developing decision support systems in the field of human resources.

Published: November 2024

In the present paper, the effect of the addition of graphene nanostructures and 3 mass % TiO2 on the microstructure and properties of sintered corundum ceramics were studied. Fine-porous corundum ceramics were obtained by the method of solid-phase sintering at relatively low temperatures of 1450oC, by adding graphene nanostructures in an amount of 2 % or 20 %. To lower the synthesis temperature, 3 mass % TiO2 was added to the initial ceramic blends. As a result of the solid solution formed between Al2O3 and TiO2, a well-sintered corundum ceramic is obtained at synthesis temperature lower than that of pure corundum - 1450oС. For the characterization of the initial blends and the ceramic samples, the methods of X-ray phase analysis, infrared spectroscopy, SEM, TEM EDS and visual microscopy were used. Besides, the basic physicochemical properties of the samples synthesized based on corundum were determined, e.g. water absorption (WA, %), apparent density (AD, %) and apparent (open) porosity (Pa, %).

Based on new findings at Polideportivo de Martos (Jaén) and Los Millares (Almería) sites, a review of the “plate idols” from the Southeast Iberia is carried out. The applied methodology has included the stylistic analysis and the evaluation of the provenance contexts allowing us to make some interpretative proposals. Thus, a relationship is observed between the formal variety and the geographical distribution, with respect to those of Los Millares necropolis. Also, the connection of the similarities with the contacts between social groups is shown. Finally, the role that the circulation of people, especially of certain women, played in the configuration of a relatively common ideology in Southern Iberia. “Plates” played a transcendent role in establishing the connection of certain people with ancestors (generic or particular) either by their integration in the funerary ritual, or by their (re)use as relic-ornament, or by their mobilization in ceremonials of agrarian regeneration. Its use developed from the middle of the 4th millennium BC.
Presentamos una revisión de los “ídolos placa” del Sureste de la península ibérica tras los nuevos hallazgos del Polideportivo de Martos (Jaén) y Los Millares (Almería). El análisis estilístico y contextual ha permitido diferentes valoraciones. Así, se observa una relación entre la variedad formal y la localización geográfica respecto a la distancia a la necrópolis millarense. Igualmente, se aprecia la conexión de las similitudes con contactos entre grupos sociales. Con todo, se plantea el rol que la circulación de personas, especialmente de determinadas mujeres, tuvo en la configuración de una ideología relativamente común en el sur de la península ibérica. Las “placas” desempeñaron un papel trascendente en la conexión de determinadas personas con los ancestros (genéricos o particulares) sea por su integración en el ritual funerario, sea por su (re)uso como reliquia-ornamento, o por su movilización en ceremoniales de regeneración agraria. Su uso se desarrolló desde mediados del IV milenio cal AC.

O trabalho tem o objetivo de relatar a experiência da inclusão no contexto da educação técnica e tecnológica do IFRS - Campus Vacaria, desde sua implantação, em 2016, até o ano de 2023. Depois de sete anos realizando apenas adaptações consideradas de pequeno porte, o ingresso de uma estudante com deficiência múltipla demandou a reorganização das práticas até então desenvolvidas. Através do método da observação participante e da consulta a fontes documentais e bibliográficas, detalhou-se o trabalho realizado com a aluna, com seus desafios e potencialidades, além de refletir sobre o tempo e os espaços que a educação inclusiva percorreu na instituição. Conclui-se que investir na formação escolar das pessoas com deficiência, com o suporte adequado para seu acesso, permanência e êxito, vai ao encontro da missão dos institutos federais, possibilitando a educação profissional como estratégia para a construção da cidadania destas pessoas, que historicamente tiveram o seu direito à educação restrito ou negado.
