Bahasa Sunda, dengan kompleksitas undak-usuk basa, memiliki peran penting dalam komunikasi di Jawa Barat, Indonesia. Mesin penerjemah Bahasa Sunda Loma ke Bahasa Sunda Halus menjadi tantangan karena penggunaan kata harus tepat sesuai konteksnya. Mesin ini penting sebagai alat pembelajaran Bahasa Sunda, mengingat banyaknya generasi yang kehilangan pemahaman terhadap bahasa daerah. Neural Machine Translation (NMT), terutama dengan model Long Short Term Memory (LSTM), menjadi solusi yang menjanjikan. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengimplementasikan LSTM dalam penerjemah Bahasa Sunda, tetapi penelitian terbaru masih kurang. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa optimizer ADAM pada dataset duplikat menghasilkan akurasi terbaik, meskipun masih ada evaluasi yang kurang baik. Mesin penerjemah ini diharapkan dapat membantu pelestarian Bahasa Sunda di era digital. Evaluasi BLEU score menunjukkan kualitas terjemahan yang rendah pada dataset asli dan dataset duplikat dengan optimizer RMS, sementara dengan optimizer ADAM menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan, terutama pada dataset duplikat. Meskipun demikian, masih ditemukan evaluasi yang kurang baik pada dataset yang diduplikat.

Sundanese, with its intricate speech levels, holds a pivotal role in West Java's communication. Translating from Loma to Formal Sundanese poses challenges due to precise contextual word usage. Crucial for Sundanese language preservation, a Neural Machine Translation (NMT) system using Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) models emerges promising, yet current research is limited.This study aims to implement LSTM in Sundanese translation, focusing on the ADAM optimizer's efficacy on duplicate datasets. While ADAM yields the highest accuracy, some evaluations remain suboptimal. The translation engine's role is vital in preserving Sundanese in the digital era. BLEU score evaluations show low translation quality with RMS and significant improvements with ADAM, especially in duplicates. However, deficiencies persist, notably in duplicated datasets. This endeavor addresses the decline in regional language comprehension among younger generations, fostering Sundanese language education.

Published: August 2024

El aceite de oliva, un componente esencial de la dieta mediterránea destaca por ser la principal fuente de grasas en esta alimentación y por aportar componentes de alto valor nutricional. Más allá de su impacto en el perfil lipídico, el aceite de oliva también juega un papel importante en el control de los niveles de azúcar en la sangre y la presión arterial. Entre sus propiedades destacan sus efectos antioxidantes y antiinflamatorios, la reducción del riesgo de formación de trombos y la promoción de la vasodilatación, todos contribuyentes significativos a la salud cardiovascular.
Estos efectos beneficiosos del aceite de oliva se deben principalmente a su alto contenido de grasas monoinsaturadas y micronutrientes, en particular los compuestos fenólicos. A nivel clínico, la mayoría de las evidencias sobre estos beneficios provienen de estudios observacionales, que han servido para reafirmar la posición del aceite de oliva como uno de los alimentos más beneficiosos para la salud humana. La variedad de ventajas que ofrece hace que sea un elemento indispensable en una dieta saludable y equilibrada.
Biological factors associated with long COVID and comparative analysis of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein variants: a retrospective study in Thailand
Authors: Kiatratdasakul Supanchita , Noisumdaeng Pirom , Niyomdecha Nattamon 
Published: August 2024

Background
Post-acute COVID-19 syndrome (long COVID) refers to the persistence of COVID-19 symptoms or exceptional symptoms following recovery. Even without conferring fatality, it represents a significant global public health burden. Despite many reports on long COVID, the prevalence and data on associated biological factors remain unclear and limited. This research aimed to determine the prevalence of long COVID during the two distinct epidemic periods in Thailand, due to the Delta and Omicron variants of SARS-CoV-2, and to investigate the biological factors associated with long COVID. In addition, the spike protein amino acid sequences of the Delta and Omicron variants were compared to determine the frequency of mutations and their potential biological implications.

Methods
A retrospective cross-sectional study was established to recruit confirmed COVID-19 participants at Maharat Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital who had recovered for at least three months and were infected between June 2021 and August 2022. The demographic data and long COVID experience were collected via telephone interview. The biological factors were analyzed through binary logistic regression. The datasets of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein amino acid sequence of the Delta and Omicron variants in Thailand were retrieved from GIDSAID to determine mutation frequencies and to identify possible roles of the mutations based on published data.

Results
Data was collected from a total of 247 participants comprising 106 and 141 participants of the Delta and Omicron epidemic periods, respectively. Apart from the COVID-19 severity and health status, the baseline participant data of the two time periods were remarkably similar. The prevalence of long COVID observed in the Omicron period was higher than in the Delta period (74.5% vs. 66.0%). The biological factors associated with long COVID were epidemic variant, age, treatment with symptomatic medicines, and vaccination status. When the spike protein sequence data of the two variants were compared, it was observed that the Omicron variant exhibited a greater quantity of amino acid changes in its receptor-binding domain (RBD) and receptor-binding motif (RBM). The critical changes of the Omicron variant within these regions had a significant function in enhancing virus transmissibility and host immune response resistance.

Conclusion
This study revealed informative data associated with long COVID in Thailand. More attention should be given to long COVID caused by unique virus variants and other biological factors to prepare a healthcare management strategy for COVID-19 patients after recovery.

Authors: Fernando Daniel S. , Bual Joel M. 
Published: August 2024

Aims: This study assessed the life skills level of Grade 12 students in a Catholic school in Central Philippines during 2023–2024 in terms of self-awareness, empathy, effective communication, interpersonal relations, creative thinking, critical thinking, decision-making, problem-solving, coping with emotions, and coping with stress when they were taken as a whole and also grouped according to biological sex, academic strand, family structure, and family monthly income. Likewise, demographics were correlated with their life skills level.
Study Design: Quantitative research design, particularly the descriptive-correlational approach.
Place and Duration of Study: Catholic school in Central Philippines during 2023–2024.
Methodology: The respondents were 210 Grade 12 students. In assessing the study, the 100-item standardized life skills assessment questionnaire by Subasree et al. [1] was employed. It was validated and yielded 89% concurrence using face and content validity. The fitness of the items to the Filipino context was checked by Pahilanga et al. [11], yielding a reliable Cronbach’s alpha score of 0.92. This was responded to using the scale from very high to very low. In data analysis, descriptive and correlational analyses were utilized. The descriptive analysis was employed to determine the students' level of life skills using mean and standard deviation. Meanwhile, the correlational analysis correlated the demographics and their life skills.
Results: Generally, their life skills level (M=3.29, SD=0.22) was rated average. Meanwhile, the areas that need improvement are coping with stress (M=2.44, SD=0.50) with a low-level rating and average levels for coping with emotions (M=2.88, SD=0.44), effective communication (M=3.21, SD=0.40), interpersonal relationships (M=3.11, SD=0.43), and decision making (M=3.38, SD=0.35). In the demographics, their sex, strand, family structure, and family income were rated average. The Point biserial correlation shows no relationship between the students’ life skills and the following variables: biological sex [r(275)=-0.075, p=0.277], family structure [r(275)=0.041, p=0.550], and family income [r(275)=0.093, p=0.178]. Hence, the null hypotheses are accepted. Meanwhile, the eta correlation showed no relationship between their life skills and their strands [η=0.080, p=0.723]. Hence, the null hypothesis is accepted.
Conclusion: Given the findings of the study, continuous improvement of the student's life skills acquisition is necessary. Deepening life skills development in the Catholic school's curriculum and instruction is recommended. Incorporating it into curricular and non-curricular programs and activities may also help. Additionally, their exposure to various tasks and responsibilities that establish their sense of independence is also vital to help them develop these skills and apply what they have learned in real-life situations.

Authors: Sharma Arjun , Tiwari Raghvendra , Panwar Nitesh Kumar 
Published: August 2024

Combining ability is mostly used by breeders to select appropriate parental cultivars to produce the larger progeny of new combinations through their hybridization. The objectives of this research were to estimate the general combining ability of parents and specific combining abilities of F1 hybrids, to identify suitable parents and hybrids for yield and its contributing traits. In this study, materials comprising 8 F1s derived by crossing 2 lines with 4 testers following the Line x Tester mating design. The F1s and the parental genotypes were grown at the ‘Research Farm’ of the Tagore University's, Department of Genetics & Plant Breeding during the autumn 2021 using Randomized Block Design (RBD) with three replications. The popular soybean variety JS 335 was found as the best overall performer (good general combiner) for most traits, while the cross-combination JS 93-05 X RVS 2001-4 showed particular promise for specific traits. The cross RVS-24 X JS 95-60 showed desirable traits like high plant height, pod number, and yield, making it a potential candidate for breeding higher-yielding and biomass-rich varieties. Additionally, crosses RVS-24 X JS 95-60, RVS-24 X JS 335, JS 93-05 X RVS 2001-4, and RVS-24 X JS 97-52 exhibited high heterotic responses for seed yield, making them valuable for developing high-yielding lines. The cross JS 93-05 X RVS 2001-4 showed the best potential for genetic improvement in the pod number/plant, seed number per pod, yield/plant, and the harvest index, making it a valuable resource for isolating high-yielding genotypes.

Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of 1% metformin gel administered locally as an adjunct to basic periodontal treatment in patients with periodontitis at different stages, with type II diabetes mellitus, who were using oral metformin.
Study Design: This is a randomized, parallel, double-blind, clinical and laboratory-based clinical study.
Place and Duration of Study: It was carried out from April 2022 to March 2023. Study carried out in Cascavel-PR, Brazil.
Methodology: Total of 39 patients were evaluated, divided into two groups, CM (n=20): Periodontal therapy with an association of 1% metformin gel and SM (n=19): Periodontal therapy with placebo gel association. The patients were evaluated at 0, 3 and 6 months, through the following exams: clinical exams (clinical probing depth, bleeding on probing, clinical attachment loss and plaque index), hematological exams (fasting glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, creatinine and total cholesterol and fractions) and collection of gingival crevicular fluid for evaluation of IL-17 by means of the ELISA test and to determine the amount of fluid absorbed (mm2).
Results: Both groups significantly reduced the amount of plaque, bleeding on probing and the amount of gingival crevicular fluid in mm2 (p<0.05) while CPD (clinical probing depth) was significantly reduced (p<0.05) only in the CM group. When evaluating the different probing depths, pockets <5 and ≥ 5 mm reduced significantly (p<0.05) in the CM group, while in the SM group, only pockets <5 mm were significantly reduced. The results of the hematological exams did not show statistical difference in this period and the same occurred with the amount of IL-17 present in the gingival crevicular fluid.
Conclusion: According to the results obtained in the present study, the local application of 1% metformin gel in patients with PD and type II DM was effective when associated with basic periodontal treatment over periodontal clinical parameters, compared to the placebo gel.
