RESETTLEMENT ADMINISTRATION HANDBOOKS: CREATION, CONTENT, DISTRIBUTION, READING (LATE 19TH – EARLY 20TH CENTURY)
Authors: Чупин М.Ю. 
Published: July 2024

В фокусе исследования автора находятся малоизученные проблемы создания и бытования справочников, которые Переселенческое управление издавало для крестьян в конце XIX – начале XX в. Установлены авторы, тиражи и механизмы распространения такого рода книжной продукции. За несколько десятилетий сложились целые серии справочных изданий, которые предоставляли переселенцу детальную информацию о регионах Азиатской России в текущем году. Со сменой переселенческого курса от сдерживания к поощрению репрезентация Сибири становилась все более позитивной. Вместе с тем справочники не были рекламным изданием, так как в них содержались разносторонние (в том числе негативные) сведения о Сибири. Их можно считать одним из ограниченно эффективных каналов информирования. Тиражи и механизмы, компенсировавшие грамотность, делали справочные книги доступными, но действенность их распространения остается неясной. Кроме того, крестьяне могли воспринимать содержание справочника в искаженном виде и не доверять официальной информации.
The study focuses on the understudied problems of creation and use of handbooks published by Resettlement Administration for peasants in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The first official publications for informing settlers were issued by Resettlement Administration. Comparison of the handbooks of different years shows how the system of information collection developed and how the representation of Siberia changed. A series of handbooks about Asiatic Russia emerged over several decades, as well as their short versions, and handbooks about resettlement areas. They provided the settlers with detailed information about the regions of Asiatic Russia in the current year. The representation of Siberia became more positive with the change of the resettlement course from deter to encouragement. The compilers of handbooks, their print runs, and the mechanism of their distribution are identified. Generally, the compilers of handbooks were experienced and high-ranking officials, some of whom were engaged in scientific activities. The purpose of the handbooks was not advertising, but informing peasants about the difficulties and prospects of resettlement. It is complicated to establish with certainty what influence the handbooks had on the settlers. At most, they can be considered a limitedly effective source of information. The annual circulation corresponded to the number of settlers, with some years being exceptions. However, it is not clear whether the mechanism of distribution of handbooks allowed to bring the publications to the reader. The literacy level of peasants was low, but there were compensatory mechanisms, such as collective reading aloud, assistance of officials and zemstvo workers. It is possible that a significant factor that reduced the effectiveness of handbooks was that peasants misunderstood them and might not have trusted official information.
PEMBERIAN FUCOIDAN SECARA ORAL DARI HASIL EKSTRAKSI Sargassum sp. UNTUK MENANGGULANGI MOTILE AEROMONAS SEPTICEMIA PADA IKAN LELE (Clarias sp.)

Motile aeromonas septicemia (MAS) adalah salah satu penyakit yang sering menyebabkan kematian pada ikan, dan disebabkan oleh bakteri Aeromonas hydrophila. Salah satu cara untuk menanggulangi penyakit bakteri yang menyerang ikan adalah dengan menggunakan imunostimulan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh pemberian fucoidan secara oral terhadap perkembangan gejala penyakit ikan lele yang diinfeksi A. hydrophila. Penggunaan metode asam digunakan untuk mengekstraksi fucoidan dari Sargassum sp. Penelitian ini melibatkan empat perlakuan dan tiga ulangan. Perlakuan P1, P2, P3, dan P4, masing-masing meliputi kontrol, 2, 4, dan 6 g fucoidan per kilogram pakan. Pakan diberikan kepada ikan dalam jumlah 5% dari berat kering pakan terhadap biomassa ikan. Setelah itu, dilakukan uji tantang dengan memberikan dosis 0,1 mL per ikan dari A. hydrophila dengan kepadatan 2,77 x 107 sel per ml secara intraperitonial satu minggu setelah pemberian fucoidan secara oral. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemberian fucoidan secara oral dengan dosis 2, 4, dan 6 g fucoidan per kilogram pakan tidak menghasilkan peningkatan yang signifikan dalam sintasan (P>0,05) dan tidak mampu menunda MTD pada ikan yang terinfeksi A. hydrophila KP1 jika infeksi dilakukan di bawah LD50. Perlu dilakukan penelitian lebih lanjut dengan menambahkan dosis fucoidan pada pakan ikan lele untuk mendapatkan hasil yang lebih baik.Motile aeromonas septicemia (MAS) is a disease that often causes death in fish, and is caused by Aeromonas hydrophila. One of ways to overcome bacterial diseases that attack fish is to use immunostimulants. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of oral administration of fucoidan on the development of disease symptoms in catfish infected with A. hydrophila. The acid method was used to extract fucoidan from Sargassum sp. This experiment involved four treatments and three replications. Treatments P1, P2, P3, and P4, respectively, included control, 2, 4, and 6 g of fucoidan per kilogram of feed. Feed was given to fish in an amount of 5% of the dry weight of the feed to fish biomass. After that, a challenge test was carried out by giving a dose of 0.1 mL per fish of A. hydrophila with a density of 2.77 x 107 cells per mL intraperitoneally one week after oral administration of fucoidan. The results showed that oral administration of fucoidan at doses of 2, 4, and 6 g of fucoidan per kilogram of feed did not result in a significant increase in survival (P>0.05) and was unable to delay MTD in fish infected with A. hydrophila KP1 if infection carried out below LD50. Further study needs to be done by adding a dose of fucoidan to catfish feed to get better results.
Проблемы «языка инклюзии»: на примере наименований людей с ментальными особенностями
Authors: Руднева Екатерина Алексеевна 
Published: July 2024

Язык, находясь в тесной связи с социальными, культурными и политическими процессами, не только отражает, но и формирует их. В фокусе исследования – публичный дискурс, включающий тексты об инклюзивных проектах, а именно мастерских для широкой аудитории. В статье анализируются наименования благополучателей и то, как выбор слов влияет на создание их образа. Материал исследования составили тексты, размещенные в интернете; сплошная выборка наименований сотрудников инклюзивных мастерских; данные веб-корпуса (для проверки частотности и даты первой фиксации); интервью, где участникам (с диагнозами и без) предлагалось высказать свое мнение по поводу тех или иных выражений и поделиться своим опытом. Подробно обсуждается номинация «люди с ментальными особенностями», а также актуальные идеологии и причины, по которым она оказывается проблематичной. Многочисленные варианты различаются по степени эвфемистичности и устойчивости словосочетаний: так, «люди с особенностями» могут быть «с ментальными особенностями», «особенностями развития», «особенностями интеллектуального развития», «развития психики и интеллекта»; «с нарушениями» – «интеллектуальными», «ментальными», «психическими», «умственными»; «с инвалидностью» – «ментальной» или «по психическому расстройству»; фиксируются варианты с прилагательными «особый», «особенный», «нейроотличный» и др. Хотя многие из этих выражений используются как взаимозаменяемые, они несут дополнительные оттенки значений и могут обозначать категории, пересекающиеся лишь частично, а также отличаются по тем идеологиям, которые стоят за ними. Основные выделенные закономерности – это вариативность и эвфемистичность наименований, а также новизна некоторых из них («ментальные особенности», «нейроотличный»). «Язык инклюзии» эвфемистичен и в более широком смысле, т. к. находится на стадии становления, стремясь найти корректные формулировки для обозначения тех смыслов и категорий, которые составляют социальную проблему, и предлагая новые этические модели. Кроме того, он ориентирован в большей степени на тех, кто связан с темой, и может оказаться не ясным для неспециалистов. Это обусловлено как особенностями функционирования этого языка, который касается профессиональных областей и учитывает прогрессивные идеологии, так и низкой осведомленностью общества.

Published: July 2024

Objective: to investigate the effects of sodium valproate on plasma concentrations of homocysteine, folate and vitamin B12 levels in epileptic patients with long-standing tonic-clonic seizures compared to newly diagnosed epileptic patients and healthy controls.Material and methods. The study included 90 participants (mean age 36.30±12.83 years, the majority (58.89%) were males) divided into three groups: 30 non-epileptic people (control Group 1), 30 newly diagnosed epileptic patients (Group 2), and 30 patients with long-term tonic-clonic seizures epilepsy (Group 3). In Group 3, patients received sodium valproate therapy. All subjects underwent clinical and neurological examinations. Differences in plasma levels of homocysteine, folic acid and vitamin B12 in three groups were investigated after 6 months of follow-up.Results. Homocysteine level in Groups 2 and 3 was increased; for Group 2 it was significantly higher than for Groups 3 and 1 (p=0.001). Plasma folate level in Groups 2 and 3 was decreased; for Group 3 it was significantly higher than for Group 2 and lower than for Group 1 (p=0.001). Vitamin B12 level in Groups 2 and 3 was decreased, but the difference was not significant (p=0.090). In Groups 1 and 2, a significant correlation was observed between the indicators.Conclusion. Sodium valproate аdministration might disrupt the homeostatic level of homocysteine, folate and vitamin B12 and cause irregularity of their plasma contents in epileptic patients with long-standing tonic-clonic seizures.

Published: July 2024

A clinical observation of a patient with Dravet syndrome caused by SCN1A gene mutation is presented. Dravet syndrome is a severe epileptic encephalopathy that occurs in early childhood, accompanied by seizure polymorphism, drug-resistant course and severe cognitive impairment. The current clinical case confirms the opportunity for drug controlled course of Dravet syndrome. A two-year remission was achieved using polytherapy with antiepileptic drugs. Currently, a complete remission during duotherapy with topiramate in combination with levetiracetam is sustained. The described clinical case also demonstrates preservation of cognitive functions: the child successfully acquires full general education program. It should be noted that upon early relief of epileptic seizures, no cognitive functions become affected.

The incidence of autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is rising due to increased awareness of the condition and detection of new autoantibodies. Coinciding with this rise are false positive autoantibodies without clinical correlates. Objective: To explore the clinical profiles of Omani patients who are truly positive for AE autoantibodies and compare them with those with false-positive autoantibodies. Methods: We reviewed the medical records of all patients who tested positive for AE antibody from May 2016 to December 2022. Cases were verified by three neurologists based on the existing criteria for AE. Results: The participants comprised N = 67 patients, 19 (28%) of whom fulfilled the criteria for AE. True-positive AE patients were younger with mean age of 35.3 ± 4.7 years (p = 0.010). They were also more likely to present with subacute memory disturbances (6/19; 32%; p = 0.030), seizures (12; 63%; p = 0.028), abnormal electroencephalogram (EEG) findings (10; 65%; p = 0.040), and abnormal signals in limbic region on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (5; 26%; p = 0.010). Subacute memory disturbance was a significant predictor for true positivity (OR = 17.807, 95%CI = 1.608–197.202; p = 0.019). Anti-N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis was the most frequent type of AE (8; 42.1%), followed by anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD65) (4; 21.1%). Conclusion: Of the 67 cases with positive AE autoantibody panel, 48 (72%) were false-positive. The presence of subacute memory impairment was a significant predictor of AE. Anti-NMDAR encephalitis was the most frequent AE encountered in our cohort.

Published: July 2024

A relevant learning space for academics, especially junior researchers, is the academic conference. While conference participation has long been associated with personal attendance at the conference venue, virtual participation is becoming increasingly important. This study investigates the perceived value of a purely virtual academic conference for its participants by analyzing the evaluation feedback (N = 759) from three virtual and two face-to-face LAK conferences. For the purposes of this study, we derive a definition of conference value and identify factors contributing to the overall value rating of virtual academic conferences based on the existing literature. Results indicate a perceived value of virtual conferences comparable with that of face-to-face events, satisfaction with social interaction and topics of interest being the most important predictors. Our insights show that virtual conferences are valuable events for academic professional development and conference organizers can utilize these results to design a valuable event for their participants.

For this reason, this research aims to conduct a literature review of the problems of teachers' readiness in implementing the new curriculum or the Merdeka Belajar Curriculum and find solutions. The method chosen in this research is SLR (Systematic Literature Review) method. In this research, 15 articles relevant to the Merdeka Belajar Curriculum and the problems faced by teachers in implementing it for the period 2022-2023 are reviewed with a focus on problems, teacher readiness and new curriculum implementation. The articles used in this study were obtained from Sinta Journal, and Publish or Perish.The results of this study show that firstly, most teachers faced challenges in understanding the concepts and teaching strategies promoted by the new curriculum. This indicates the need for increased training and debriefing of teachers to enable them to play their role as learning facilitators in the spirit of this curriculum. Second, limited facilities and infrastructure, both in terms of funds and teaching materials, are a serious obstacle to the implementation of this curriculum. Therefore, there is a need for further support from the government and related parties to ensure the availability of adequate infrastructure.

Accuracy of 4 Different Methods for Estimation of Remaining Growth and Timing of Epiphysiodesis
Authors: Breen Anne Berg , Steen Harald , Pripp Are , Niratisairak Sanyalak , Horn Joachim 
Published: July 2024

Background:
The calculation of remaining growth in children and the timing of epiphysiodesis in those with leg-length discrepancy (LLD) is most often done with 4 methods: the Green-Anderson, White-Menelaus, Moseley straight-line graph, and multiplier methods. The aims of this study were to identify the most accurate method with use of bone age or chronological age and to evaluate the influence of including inhibition in the calculations.

Methods:
One hundred and ninety-one children (10 to 17 years of age) with LLD who underwent surgical closure of the growth plate and were followed until skeletal maturity were identified from a local health register. Patients had at least 2 leg-length examinations with simultaneous bone-age assessments (according to the Greulich and Pyle method), with the last examination performed ≤6 months before surgery. The accuracy of each method was calculated as the mean absolute prediction error (predicted leg length – actual leg length at maturity) for the short leg, the long leg, and the LLD. Comparisons were made among the 4 methods and among calculations made with chronological age versus bone age and those made with versus those without incorporation of a reduced growth rate (inhibition) of the short leg compared with the long leg.

Results:
The White-Menelaus method with use of bone age and a fixed inhibition rate was the most accurate method, with a prediction error of 1.5 ± 1.5 cm for the short leg, 1.0 ± 1.2 cm for the long leg, and 0.7 ± 0.7 cm for the LLD. Pairwise comparison of short-leg length and LLD according to the White-Menelaus and other methods showed that they were significantly different (p ≤ 0.002). The calculated inhibition rate did not increase accuracy.

Conclusions:
The White-Menelaus method used with bone age and constant inhibition should be the preferred method when predicting remaining growth and the timing of epiphysiodesis in children between 10 and 17 years of age. One examination is in most cases sufficient for the preoperative clinical investigation when chronological age and bone age are concordant.

Level of Evidence:
Prognostic Level III. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
Short-term applications of liquid organic fertilizer from fermented fish residue had adverse effects on the soil and leafy vegetable qualities
Authors: Sukitprapanon Tanabhat-Sakorn 
Published: July 2024

Abstract

Fermented fish residue (FFR) is a major byproduct generated from the fermented fish sources industries and has the potential to make liquid organic fertilizer. This study aims to determine the chemical properties of the FFR and OF derived from the FFR and to investigate the short-term application effects of the OF on the qualities of soil and leafy vegetable. Three cropping seasons of leafy vegetables (lettuce: Lactuca sativa) were conducted in a field experiment with five treatments consisting of liquid chemical fertilizer (IF) and various doses of the OF with water ratios of 1:100, 1:200, 1:500, and 1:1000. The FFR and OF were acidic and contained elevated amounts of N, EC, and Na but low in P, K, and potentially toxic elements. Applying high OF concentrations caused lower soil pH and exchangeable forms of Ca and Mg, but it enhanced available Fe, exchangeable sodium percentage, and exchangeable Na in soil. Short-term application of the OF had the potential risk of causing soil salinity and sodicity. Moreover, adding higher OF concentrations adversely impacts Na accumulation and K reduction in plants. Therefore, this study proposes that the FFR should not be used for OF production unless its Na is reduced.
Ortho-LBP: Novel Features for Enhanced Pattern Recognition through Bitwise Logical Fusion of Bidirectional Orthogonal Information with LBP

Published: July 2024

Abstract

Local binary patterns (LBPs) have been fundamental in image processing and machine learning, yet they exhibit limitations such as low preference, generalisation issues, and restricted neighbourhood sampling. To address these, we propose three novel feature extraction techniques: horizontal orthogonal information fused LBP (HOI-LBP), vertical orthogonal information fused LBP (VOI-LBP), and multiplied orthogonal information fused LBP (MOI-LBP). These proposed techniques integrate orthogonal information from the outer 5x5 neighbourhood through logical bitwisefusion with the traditional LBP 3x3 operator. We enhance feature richness and noise robustness by leveraging logical combinations of AND and OR operations on the cyclic 8-bit pairs of corner, horizontal, and vertical pairs of pixels surrounding the central pixel in the LBP’s outer neighbourhood. Experimental evaluations across diverse benchmark datasets, including dog versus cat, CIFAR-10, and MNIST, demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed techniques. We train different deep learning models, such as VGG-16, MobileNet, and EfficientNet B0. The HOI-LBP, VOI-LBP, and MOILBPfeatures consistently do better than regular LBP, showing an average increase of 6.63% training accuracy, and 4.7%in test accuracy. Furthermore, average reductions of 9.46% and 7.51% in training and validation losses signify improvedconvergence and generalisation capabilities. These results show that by capturing subtle variations in texture, gradientenergies, and structural patterns, the fused features offer a more comprehensive representation of image content. Thus,the proposed techniques introduce a paradigm shift in image processing and machine learning, empowering finer detailcapture and improved performance across diverse applications.
Effect of Thermal Aging on Mechanical Performance of GF/PBT Composites for High Voltage Bushing

Published: July 2024

Abstract

The present work aims to study the mechanical performance of glass fiber reinforced polybutylene terephthalate (GF/PBT) composite materials used for high-pressure casing under different thermal aging temperatures. Both tensile and three-point bending tests are conducted on the thermally aged GF/PBT samples. Meanwhile, the stress analysis is performed using the finite element method, and the tensile fracture morphology and mode are observed using a scanning electron microscope. The findings reveal a decline in both tensile and bending strengths of GF/PBT as the aging temperature rises. It is worth noting that the elastic modulus of the composite samples remained relatively unaffected by thermal aging. The thermally aged materials exhibit brittle fracture, which directly affects the bonding performance between glass fibers and PBT matrix.
