Published: July 2024

Bermukun merupakan salah satu aktiviti seni warisan budaya masyarakat Sarawak yang masih kekal relevan hingga ke hari ini. Aktiviti bermukun melibatkan tiga komponen utama iaitu bergendang, berbalas pantun dan bertandak. Metodologi kajian ini melibatkan kajian kualitatif dan analisis kandungan berbantukan Model Segi Tiga Semiotik. Data pantun dikumpul melalui kajian lapangan yang melibatkan aktiviti bermukun dan kaedah persampelan yang digunakan ialah kaedah persempelan bertujuan. Implikasi kajian ini menjadi output kepada pembinaan Profil Perlambangan Pantun Tradisi Bermukun Masyarakat Melayu Sarawak dan Profil Makna Pantun Tradisi Bermukun Masyarakat Melayu Sarawak. Aktiviti berbalas pantun ini dianggap unik kerana disampaikan secara spontan yang didendangkan melalui nyanyian. Keindahan berbalas pantun dalam tradisi bermukun ini juga dapat dilihat melalui penggunaan ungkapan dalam rangkap pantun tersebut. Ungkapan ini diwakili oleh perlambangan yang berbentuk eksplisit dan implisit yang mencerminkan keintelektualan dan seni berkomunikasi dalam kalangan masyarakat Sarawak. Namun begitu, unsur perlambangan yang berbentuk eksplisit dan implisit boleh menimbulkan ketidakfahaman disebabkan oleh kekangan bahasa yang berbeza. Kesannya, mesej yang cuba disampaikan melalui pantun tersebut tidak difahami oleh bukan penutur jati. Hakikatnya, budaya berbalas pantun yang diwarisi sejak turun-temurun ini dapat memupuk rasa cinta kepada aktiviti seni dan budaya dalam kalangan masyarakat di negeri Sarawak. Hal ini sejajar dengan peranan dan fungsi Kementerian Pelancongan, Seni dan Budaya yang dipertanggungjawabkan di bawah Jabatan Kesenian dan Kebudayaan Negeri Sarawak. Justeru, kajian ini dijalankan bagi mengenal pasti unsur perlambangan dan menganalisis makna eksplisit dan implisit dalam rangkap pantun Melayu Sarawak serta mendokumentasikan pantun sebagai hasil seni khazanah bangsa.

Background
Tracking the spread of antibiotic resistant bacteria is critical to reduce global morbidity and mortality associated with human and animal infections. There is a need to understand the role that wild animals in maintenance and transfer of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs).

Methods
This study used metagenomics to identify and compare the abundance of bacterial species and ARGs detected in the gut microbiomes from sympatric humans and wild mouse lemurs in a forest-dominated, roadless region of Madagascar near Ranomafana National Park. We examined the contribution of human geographic location toward differences in ARG abundance and compared the genomic similarity of ARGs between host source microbiomes.

Results
Alpha and beta diversity of species and ARGs between host sources were distinct but maintained a similar number of detectable ARG alleles. Humans were differentially more abundant for four distinct tetracycline resistance-associated genes compared to lemurs. There was no significant difference in human ARG diversity from different locations. Human and lemur microbiomes shared 14 distinct ARGs with highly conserved in nucleotide identity. Synteny of ARG-associated assemblies revealed a distinct multidrug-resistant gene cassette carrying dfrA1 and aadA1 present in human and lemur microbiomes without evidence of geographic overlap, suggesting that these resistance genes could be widespread in this ecosystem. Further investigation into intermediary processes that maintain drug-resistant bacteria in wildlife settings is needed.

Published: July 2024

Background: This study employed a health technology assessment approach to explore the impact of Hippolite O. Amadiet al.’s neonatal care interventions.
Methods: The research design was a qualitative desk research method. The purposive sampling procedure was adopted focusing on a subset of 10 out of a population of 45 journal articles authored by Amadi and others. Textual analysis was the method of data collection and interpretation analysis was used to analyze the data.
Results: Locally tailored interventions such as the ‘handy approach’ temperature control, Neonatal Rescue Scheme, PoliteO2blend®, community-integrated neonatal care, Initial-Setpoint-Algorithm, weatherproof nursery designs, and the recycled incubator technique. These health technology interventions, designed to address challenges in low- and middle-income countries like Nigeria, underscored the significance of locally derived solutions in improving neonatal health outcomes.
Conclusion: The study advocated for leveraging scientific journals as a pivotal medium for health technology assessment and science communication, facilitating the seamless exchange of local knowledge and innovations in neonatal care. By highlighting Hippolite Amadi’s research publications, the research emphasized the transformative role of journals in disseminating local innovations globally, promoting collaboration, and knowledge exchange beyond geographical boundaries.
Recommendation: This study underscored the importance of active stakeholder involvement in optimizing neonatal outcomes through effective science communication, with a focus on prioritizing journals to facilitate the dissemination of local innovations on a global scale and foster collaboration among healthcare professionals, researchers, and local communities to address unique challenges faced by low- and middle-income countries in neonatal care practices.

Published: July 2024

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is one of the most important legume crops worldwide, with high protein content. Chickpea productivity is highly threatened by abiotic stresses, of which drought exerts the most crucial role in terms of growth inhibition and yield losses encountered. Since germination is a critical stage that is negatively affected by drought, an experiment was conducted to estimate the genotypic variability among 27 chickpea genotypes and to determine the seed germination and seedling growth ability under water stress conditions. Seeds were subjected to water stress by using polyethylene glycol (PEG-6000) at five stress levels (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 % PEG). Among the genotype DIBG 205 (94.50%) recorded highest germination percentage compared to other genotypes. Root length recorded was highest in ICCV 4958 (18.48 cm) under 10% PEG -6000 and decreased with increase in osmotic stress. Drought significantly affected germination as well as all other associated traits with the effects of stress being analogous to the stress level applied. Seedling vigour index is a suitable selection criterion for drought tolerance, high seedling vigour index was observed in DIBG 205 and ICCV 4958 showing increased drought tolerance at high stress level, whereas low seedling vigour index was recorded in ICCV 201217 and ICCV 201116 indicating their possible exploitation as valuable genetic material for further breeding programs for drought tolerance.

Published: July 2024

This study investigates the company-controlled causes of barrier failure in Niger Delta region of Nigeria. Also, it focuses on oil and gas facilities and their operations involving hydrocarbon handling. Safety Barriers in the oil and gas industry are crucial safety systems designed to prevent hazards and mitigate the consequences of incidents. These barriers, encompassing technical, operational, and organizational elements, play a significant role in handling hazardous substances and preventing their unintended release. Despite their importance, barrier failures have been identified as major causes of process safety incidents globally, including Niger Delta region of Nigeria. A cross-sectional research design, using a questionnaire to collect primary data from 132 personnel across 12 facilities, was employed. Statistical data analyses were carried out using XLSTAT Version 2016. Findings indicate that process upsets and technical/physical failures are significant risk influencing factors, while human and operational errors, though present, are less impactful. Key technical failures include degradation of valve sealing and flange gaskets, while process upsets often result from overpressure and malfunctioning transmitters. The study highlights the need for improved risk reduction strategies and periodic training to enhance safety practices in the Niger Delta's oil and gas industry. Recommendations include increasing technical components of risk strategies and ensuring regular maintenance and compliance with safety regulations; that is, proactive maintenance strategies to mitigate the identified risks.
Precessional control of Sr ratios in marginal basins during the Messinian Salinity Crisis?

Published: April 2014

AbstractBased on 87Sr/86Sr data of the Primary Lower Gypsum (PLG) deposits in the Vena del Gesso basin—a marginal basin of the Mediterranean during the Messinian Salinity Crisis—a correlation between 87Sr/86Sr values and precessional forcing has recently been proposed but not yet confirmed. In this study, a box model is set up to represent the Miocene Mediterranean deep basin and a connected marginal basin. Measurements of 87Sr/86Sr in the Vena del Gesso and estimated salinity extrema are used to constrain model results. In an extensive analysis with this model, we assess whether coeval 87Sr/86Sr and salinity fluctuations could have been forced by precession‐driven changes in the fresh water budget. A comprehensive set of the controlling parameters is examined to assess the conditions under which precession‐driven 87Sr/86Sr variations occur and to determine the most likely setting for PLG formation. Model results show that precession‐driven 87Sr/86Sr and salinity fluctuations in marginal basins are produced in settings within a large range of marginal basin sizes, riverine strontium characteristics, amplitudes of precessional fresh water budget variation, and average fresh water budgets of both the marginal and deep basin. PLG deposition most likely occurred when the Atlantic‐Mediterranean connection was restricted, and the average fresh water budget in the Mediterranean was significantly less negative than at present day. Considering the large range of settings in which salinities and 87Sr/86Sr fluctuate on a precessional timescale, 87Sr/86Sr variations are expected to be a common feature in PLG deposits in marginal basins of the Mediterranean.
In situ geochemistry of Lower Paleozoic dolomites in the northwestern Tarim basin: Implications for the nature, origin, and evolution of diagenetic fluids

Published: April 2014

AbstractLower Paleozoic sedimentary rocks in the northwestern Tarim basin were strongly altered by complicated geofluids, which resulted in the occurrence of various diagenetic minerals (e.g., dolomite). Here, in situ major, trace, and rare earth element geochemistry of Lower Ordovician diagenetic dolomite grains as well as petrography were performed to unravel the geochemical features, the nature, and origin of the diagenetic fluids. The results indicate that different geochemical information can be detected within a single sample, even within a single dolomite grain. Five generations of diagenetic dolomite have been identified based on geochemical signatures, resulting from four distinct types of diagenetic fluids: (1) HREE enrichment (PAAS‐normalized), low ΣREE, no Eu anomaly, low Mn, Ba, moderate Fe, and high Sr contents are probably due to early burial dolomitizing fluids; (2) MREE enrichment, high ΣREE, high Mn, Fe, and low Sr content are likely to be associated with Devonian deep‐circulating crustal hydrothermal fluids; (3) flat or LREE enrichment pattern with obviously positive Eu anomaly is inferred to be linked to Permian magmatic hydrothermal fluids; and (4) flat REE pattern, moderate ΣREE, no Eu anomaly, low Mn, Ba, moderate Fe, and high Sr contents are probably due to late burial dolomitizing fluids. The significances of in situ method demonstrated in this study, compared with the whole rock analysis, include not only contamination‐free analysis but also unraveling the internal geochemical variation within a single sample or a mineral grain. Thus, for the geochemical study of complicated diagenetic process, in situ method should be preferentially considered.

BackgroundSystemic corticosteroids are the most effective anti‐inflammatory drugs used for controlling chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) symptoms. The potential mechanisms for their beneficial effects include increasing the number and function of T regulatory cells (Tregs), as reported in the local tissue post–intranasal steroid treatment. We investigated the effect of systemic corticosteroids on peripheral blood (PB) Tregs in subjects with CRS.MethodsTwenty CRS subjects and 19 controls were recruited. PB mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from CRS subjects before and after systemic corticosteroid administration in the course of clinical treatment. Control subjects received no treatment and were studied at one visit. Nasal symptoms were recorded. CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ cells (Tregs) were analyzed by flow cytometry. Messenger RNA (mRNA) levels for interferon γ (IFN‐γ), interleukin 4 (IL‐4), IL‐10, IL‐13, IL‐17A, transforming growth factor β1 (TGF‐β1), forkhead box P3 (FoxP3), and GATA‐binding factor 3 (GATA‐3) were measured in PBMCs using real‐time polymerase chain reaction (PCR).ResultsCRS subjects reported improved nasal symptoms (p = 0.005) and significantly reduced PB Tregs after treatment with corticosteroids (p = 0.042). The transcript levels of IL‐4 and GATA‐3 were significantly higher in the CRS subjects at their first visit when compared to controls (p = 0.019 and p = 0.05, respectively). Corticosteroid treatment lowered the transcript levels of immunoregulatory transcription factors [FoxP3 (p = 0.048) and GATA‐3 (p = 0.012)] and IFN‐γ (p = 0.036) in PB.ConclusionIn contrast to prior work in local nasal tissue, our study reports reduced PB Tregs and decreased T helper 1 (TH1) and TH2 function after treatment with systemic corticosteroids. These data indicate that corticosteroid effects on Tregs in CRS are complex involving local signals in the tissue that are distinct from those in circulating cells.
Preparation and characterization of selective phenyl thiosemicarbazide modified Au(III) ion‐imprinted cellulosic cotton fibers
Authors: Monier M. , Akl M. A. , Ali W. 
Published: April 2014

ABSTRACTIn this study, a novel selective Au(III) chelating surface ion imprinted fibers based on phenyl thiosemicarbazide modified natural cotton (Au‐C‐PTS) has been synthesized, and applied for selective removal of Au(III) from aqueous solutions. Batch adsorption experiments were performed with various parameters, such as contact time, pH, initial Au(III) concentration, and temperature. The kinetic studies revealed that the adsorption process could be described by pseudo‐second‐order kinetic model, while the adsorption data correlated well with the Langmuir and Freundlich models. The maximum adsorption capacities calculated from the Langmuir equation are 140 ± 1 mg g−1 and 72 ± 1 mg g−1 at pH 5 for both Au‐C‐PTS and NI‐C‐PTS, respectively. The estimated thermodynamic parameters (Gibbs free energy (ΔG°), enthalpy (ΔH°), and entropy change (ΔS°)) indicated the spontaneity and exothermic nature of the adsorption process. Furthermore, the selectivity study revealed that the ion imprinted fibers was highly selective to Au(III) compared with Cu(II), Cd(II), Hg(II), and Fe(III). The adsorbent was successfully regenerated with a 0.1M HNO3 solution. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2014, 131, 40769.
