Authors: Prommuang Phawat , Seviset Somchai , Egwutvongsa Songwut 
Published: August 2024

Purpose: To study the kiln that affect the construction brick production industry and to provide guidelines for solving problems.

Method: This is qualitative research collecting data from 17 Kiln brick production industry Owners with in-depth interview. Data is analyzed by content and thematic analysis.

Results and Conclusion: (1) Physical characteristics of the furnace square brick kiln model. The structure of this kiln is made of cooked bricks into a rectangular permanent wall. There is a firewood compartment and a brick entry door on the side. Production capacity is 50,000-100,000 bricks/stove. Specific energy was 1.6-3.8 MJ/kg of brick, some stoves use 7.8 MJ/kg brick. (2) Burning temperature. Brick firing in Thailand usually ends at 900 degrees Celsius, with brick heating, brick drying, brick kilning, and temperature reduction. which uses a fairly high temperature for burning. (3) The burning time is approximately 7 days, which corresponds to the temperature of the firing side by heating the bricks, baking the bricks, burning the bricks, and reducing the temperature. By using firewood as a leaven. Therefore, there is a lack of technology development in brick production and efficient brick firing with a long firing period. (4) Heat energy loss. Brick firing in Thailand usually ends at a temperature of 900 degrees Celsius and is then turned off for a few days. To reduce cracking due to sudden temperature changes, then turn on the kiln to let the bricks cool naturally allowing the bricks to cool naturally. The heat energy stored is left and that is a loss of heat energy.

Research Implications: Brick burning uses a lot of energy, firewood as fuel, and the efficiency of the kilns used is quite low. It is likely that the efficiency of brick kilns will be improved or brick kilns with high thermal efficiency to be used as a replacement to achieve high efficiency. This allows the brick production industry to continue to exist.

Originality/Value: The improvement of fuel using for Kiln in brick burning can be improved for more effectiveness and clean environment.

Published: August 2024

Objective: Investigate understanding the impact of the active Problem Based Learning (PBL) methodology on the knowledge consolidated during medical graduation and the challenge of social management.

Theoretical Framework: Social management is a process that is taken to a specific community and is based on collective, continuous and open learning for the design and execution of projects that respond to the needs and problems of a specific focus. In this context, we involve the learning process as a dynamic process that suffers from interference from all of an individual's biopsychosocial components. Understanding that different teaching techniques generate different results in content retention and learning itself is essential for new methodologies and technologies to be developed in order to facilitate this process. In this sense, the problem-based method or PBL consists of a teaching model centered on the student and their knowledge and the teacher in the figure of a tutor, who guides the student on the learning journey, and is shown to be an innovative method, modifying relationships between learning agents and knowledge itself, especially in the academic environment.

Method: The methodology adopted for this research comprises a bibliographical review of the literature. Data collection was carried out through articles published on the PubMed and SciELO platforms, totaling 13 articles that met the inclusion criteria.

Results and Discussion: The results obtained revealed that PBL promotes a significant improvement in students' critical thinking capacity, and the implementation of PBL in teaching environments was associated with significant learning and the development of essential skills for academic development and professional practice. In general, the articles analyzed show that choosing PBL as a teaching method in different educational contexts not only improves academic performance, but also develops crucial skills for professional practice, preparing students to face complex challenges and improve their capabilities at the same time. throughout their careers.

Originality/Value: This study contributes to the literature by addressing the use of PBL as a dynamic and effective teaching method, compared to traditional teaching and social management. The relevance and value of this research are based on the extent to which it addresses a learning model that can provide essential skills for training in the health field.

Published: August 2024

Objective: This research aims to analyze the direction of farming policy toward food resilience through subsidy program and maintaining the existence of farmers.

Theoretical Framework: As an agrarian state, Indonesia has majority populations living in rural areas with farming being livelihood and rice being main food staple. Therefore, the availability of food material is a very crucial problem.

Method: The research methods used was survey on dry-land farmers, secondary data, and documentation of newspaper clipping.

Result: The result shows: 1) the farming policy is inhibited by the ever reduced land, 2) subsidy granting has not solved the farmers’ problem yet, the difficulty of finding fertilizer during harvest season and lowered prices during harvest season, and 3) the governmental policy through importing rice does not solve the root of problem in achieving food resilience by making the farmers not prosperous.

Implication of Research: The policy is made by government through improving domestic production and importing rice to secure the rice reserve in Perum BULOG.

Conclusion: The problems inhibiting the production of food staple are the reduced farming land, the increased population number, and the natural factor. On the other hand, the price of rice goes down during harvest season and import during low season always occurs repeatedly. A commitment of farming policy direction partial to the farmers is required, from upstream to downstream.

Factors Influencing City Attractiveness of Constantine
Authors: Tahar Kihal Mohamed , Souad Sassi Boudemagh 
Published: August 2024

Objective: The objective of this research was to elucidate the various urban factors within the city of Constantine that contribute to its attractiveness.

Theoretical Framework: The purpose of this study is to identify urban factors that influence personal satisfaction and the city's appeal for residents and non- residents of Constantine. By exploring the different dimensions of the city's image, the authors provide an analytical technique for quantifying the competitive structure of Constantine and its ability to attract peoples.

Method: The research is structured in the following manner. Initially, we analyze conventional methods used in place marketing to determine perceptions of place and city branding. Next, we emphasize the urban elements that impact both the satisfaction of residents and the overall appeal of the city to both residents and non-residents. To assess the attractiveness of Constantine, we establish an extensive list of city branding factors derived from the influences on city brand perceptions. The third part of the research involves defining and characterizing the sample, questionnaire, and variables. Finally, we evaluate our findings and discuss the practical implications for place marketers.

Results and Discussion: The results of this study indicate that Constantine's ability to attract people is primarily influenced by the environment's quality, level of internationalization, and healthcare quality. Factors such as economic development, touristic capacity, and cultural quality do not significantly contribute to its attractiveness. Moreover, city representation, communication, education quality, safety level, and social services quality have a non-significant negative impact on the city's ability to attract people.

Research Implications: The aim of this study is to explore the various aspects that influence metropolitan complacency as they affect the city’s ability to attract peoples such as young entrepreneurs, international business people, highly qualified individuals and tourists. In this way, our study aims to bring some practical implications for local and global location marketing and management.

Originality/Value: This study focuses on the Constantine metropolitan area, firstly because no studies have been published so far examining the region in this context, and secondly why Constantine a priority for the Algerian government to promote its economic, cultural and tourism development.

Background
Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a severe thrombotic microangiopathy predominantly affecting the kidneys, often associated with complement dysregulation. This study is aimed to analyze the clinical characteristics, treatment outcomes, and long-term implications of aHUS in a resource-limited setting.

Materials and Methods
A retrospective observational study conducted at an institute between January 2016 and December 2022 included all patients with aHUS, excluding secondary causes and renal transplant recipients. Demographic profiles, clinical features, laboratory parameters, treatment modalities (immunosuppression and plasma exchange), and outcomes were collected. Anticomplement Factor H (anti-CFH) antibody, complement levels, and genetic mutation analysis were performed to ascertain etiological factors. The patient and renal outcomes of anti-CFH positive and negative patients on long-term follow-up were compared.

Results
Fifty-seven patients (mean age: 12.5 ± 4.9 years; 63% males) were analyzed. Among them, 33 (57.9%) tested positive for anti-CFH antibodies and eight presented postpartum. Initial remission was achieved in 42 (73.6%) patients, with 13 (22.8%) partial and 29 (50.9%) complete remission. The median follow-up duration was 24 months [interquartile range (IQR) 8.5–84]; 12 (21%) patients died, with two deaths during the index admission, six among nonresponders, and 4 among responders. Dialysis-free renal survival was superior in anti-CFH seropositive patients (81.2%) compared to seronegative counterparts (55.9%), while patient survival was statistically similar between the two groups. Elevated anti-CFH titers (>4000 AU/ml), age ≥16 years, female gender, and seizures predicted nonresponsiveness.

Conclusion
Anti-CFH antibody associated aHUS had better kidney outcomes than the seronegative counterparts. In resource limited settings, a combination of plasma exchange and immunosuppression showed promising results in the short and long term.

Authors: Ibrahim Hassan S. Ibrahim 
Published: August 2024

Solar energy is a crucial and sustainable source of electricity that may be harnessed for a long duration without causing pollution. Moreover, it reduces pollution, thus improving the quality of life and reducing the cost of energy in the long term. This study analyzes and uses the modified Angstrőm–Prescott equation to estimate the monthly average global solar radiation in the Erbil governorate depending on latitude and daylight hours. The data is collected from the Agriculture Directorate in Erbil for ten stations in different locations for the period (2016-2023). Results show that the global solar energy in the region reaches a maximum of 8.4 kW.day-1.m-2 in the summertime and descends to a minimum of 1.6 kW.day-1.m-2 in winter. The equation used to estimate global solar energy is in strong agreement with measured data from the ground base weather station, and to validate the results, mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and residual mean square error (RMSE) were used. They found the value of MAPE = 4.34 -7.98 and RMSE= 0.183-0.426, indicating that the model is suitable for estimating solar radiation.

Constitutional Acquisitions of Augustus in 19 B. C.
Authors: Михайловский Ф.А. 
Published: August 2024

Статья посвящена спорному вопросу о государственно-правовом положении Августа после так называемого урегулирования 19 г. до н. э. Обыкновенно исследователи указывают на расхождения между сообщениями Диона Кассия и самого Августа, отдавая предпочтение последнему. Однако в литературе уже давно был предложен более продуктивный подход, в основе которого лежало стремление согласовывать противоречивые сведения источников, а не отвергать целиком те или иные данные как якобы ошибочные.
The article is devoted to the controversial issue of the state-legal status of Augustus after the so-called settlement of 19 B. C. Usually, researchers point to discrepancies between the reports of Dion Cassius and Augustus himself, preferring the latter. However, a more productive approach has long been proposed in the literature, which is based on the desire to reconcile contradictory information from sources, rather than completely reject certain data as allegedly erroneous.
