Abstract

Background: With the rapid increase in the number of chest CT images, the workload faced by radiologists has increased dramatically. It is undeniable that the future use of artificial intelligence (AI) image-assisted diagnosis system in clinical treatment is a major trend in medical development. Therefore, in order to explore the value and diagnostic accuracy of the current AI system in clinical application, we aims to compare the detection and differentiation of benign and malignant pulmonary nodules between AI system and physicians, so as to provide a theoretical basis for clinical application.
Methods:Our study encompassed a cohort of 23,336 patients who underwent chest low-dose spiral CT (LDCT) screening for lung cancer at the Health Management Center of West China Hospital. We conducted a comparative analysis between AI-assisted reading and manual interpretation, focusing on the detection and differentiation of benign and malignant pulmonary nodules.
Results: The AI-assisted reading exhibited a significantly higher screening positive rate and probability of diagnosing malignant pulmonary nodules compared to manual interpretation (both P < 0.001). Moreover, AI scanning demonstrated a markedly superior detection rate of malignant pulmonary nodules compared to manual scanning (97.2% vs 86.4%, P < 0.001). Additionally, the lung cancer detection rate was substantially higher in the AI reading group compared to the manual reading group (98.9% vs 90.3%, P < 0.001).
Conclusions: Our findings underscore the superior screening positive rate and lung cancer detection rate achieved through AI-assisted reading compared to manual interpretation. Thus, AI exhibits considerable potential as an adjunctive tool in lung cancer screening within clinical practice settings.

Abstract

Mining has played a significant role in the economy of South American countries for centuries. Although industrial mining has become predominant in most countries, the expansion of the garimpos, here referred to as mechanized mining, has increased substantially. This type of mining, mainly related to gold, is not only harmful to human health due to the usage of high amounts of mercury (Hg), but its trails of disastrous environmental and social changes are equally nefarious throughout the terrestrial ecosystems. It directly contributes to forest degradation and contamination of its soil, water resources, and people. In this article, we used an Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm based on convolutional neural networks to locate and map industrial and mechanized mining sites in Brazil from 1985 to 2022 using open-access satellite images. The extensive satellite time series analysis allowed us to quantify the growth of ~ 763% of Brazil's overall mining area, jumping from 580 km2 in 1985 to 4460 km² in 2022. Mechanized mining grew approximately 1200%, from 218 km² in 1985 to 2627 km2 in 2022. Such rapid and recent garimpo expansion, particularly in the Amazon, has raised significant concerns. The Brazilian garimpo is essentially Amazonian, as more than 91% of national mechanized mining is in this biome. Almost 40% of the mechanized mines detected in the biome are five years old or younger. This percentage increases to an alarming 62% inside indigenous lands. Thus, claims regarding Brazil's long-term cohabitation with standard mining practices cannot be sustained. At least 77% of the 2022 mechanized mining area shows explicit signs of illegality. Urgent effort is needed to combat and control illegal mining expansion. Particular attention must be given to the Kayapo, Munduruku, and Yanomami indigenous lands. These concentrate more than 90% of the garimpo extraction across indigenous territories. We conclude that the Brazilian efforts to curb illegal mining in the last five years have failed. Before the country can reverse the lack of control over illegal mining in the Amazon, there is a long way to go. It must radically improve and intensify the current strategies to fight the illicit expansion of garimpos.

Published: April 2024

Abstract
Raman spectroscopy is a powerful technique in the context of planetary exploration because it provides information on mineral identification, chemistry, and abundance. For Raman spectrometers with large spot sizes, multiple mineral phases can be investigated by collecting a single Raman spectrum. There is a lack of methodology for quantifying mineral species in mixtures due to the independent signal strengths of different materials in Raman spectra. Two techniques are presented in this work for quantifying common rock-forming minerals: partial least-squares multivariate analysis and a novel approach called Raman cross-section proxies (numerical metrics associated with specific Raman features). This paper targets 20 mineral species relevant to the mineralogy of the planet Mars. Mineral end-member samples and 187 binary mineral-mineral mixtures (mixture of two distinct minerals) are used for multivariate modeling. Eighteen diamond-mineral mixtures are used to derive Raman cross-section proxies. Mineral abundance proportions are predicted for the binary mineral-mineral mixtures with known mineralogical content to evaluate the efficacy of the two quantitative methods. Technique performance is mineral dependent. The root mean square error for unseen predictions (RMSE-P) using Raman cross-section proxies ranges from ±3.2–17.0 vol%. For the multivariate models, the cross-validated root mean square error (RMSE-CV) ranges from ±8.8 to 26.2 vol%. Although these error estimates are not directly comparable, they provide the most accurate error estimate currently available. Different scenarios may favor the use of one or the other of the two quantitative methods. This work provides fundamental groundwork that can be applied to common rock-forming minerals on terrestrial planets, including Mars. Quantification of mineral abundances aids in answering critical geologic questions related to ancient primary and altered rocks as well as planetary processes and conditions.
LULC dynamics and the effects of urban green spaces in cooling and mitigating micro-climate change and urban heat island effects: a case study in Addis Ababa City, Ethiopia

Published: April 2024

ABSTRACT

Land surface temperature (LST) increase and urban heat islands (UHI) are significant issues in urban development. Urban green spaces are crucial in combating micro-climate change. This study assesses their effects on cooling and mitigating micro-climate change in Addis Ababa using remotely sensed data from Landsat 5 TM (1990), Landsat 7 ETM+ (2005), and Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS (2021). LST was retrieved using mono-window algorithms for Landsat 5 and Landsat 7, and the split-window algorithm for Landsat 8. Regression and correlation analyses of LST and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) were conducted using SPSS V23, STATA, and R Studio. Results showed a decrease in urban green space (UGS) from 120.4 km² in 1990 to 76.26 km² in 2021. Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that built-up areas and green vegetation accounted for 92.2% of LST variations. The cooling efficiency (CE) and threshold value (TVoE) of green space were calculated as 4.5 ± 0.5 hectares. This suggests that allocating green spaces of this size effectively reduces heat effects. Strengthening public participation in urban greening is crucial to mitigate micro-climate change, sustain urban development, and improve quality of life. Built-up areas and vegetation significantly impact LST more than surface water (NDWI), essential for urban green and land-use planning to minimize urbanization impacts.

Published: April 2024

Background:
We have previously demonstrated that oxidative stress and brain mitochondrial
dysfunction are key mediators of brain pathology during myocardial infarction (MI).

Objective:
To investigate the beneficial effects of mitochondrial dynamic modulators, including mitochondrial
fission inhibitor (Mdivi-1) and mitochondrial fusion promotor (M1), on cognitive function
and molecular signaling in the brain of MI rats in comparison with the effect of enalapril.

Methods:
Male rats were assigned to either sham or MI operation. In the MI group, rats with an ejection
Fraction less than 50% were included, and then they received one of the following treatments for
5 weeks: vehicle, enalapril, Mdivi-1, or M1. Cognitive function was tested, and the brains were used
for molecular study.

Results:
MI rats exhibited cardiac dysfunction with systemic oxidative stress. Cognitive impairment
was found in MI rats, along with dendritic spine loss, blood-brain barrier (BBB) breakdown, brain mitochondrial
dysfunction, and decreased mitochondrial and increased glycolysis metabolism, without
the alteration of APP, BACE-1, Tau and p-Tau proteins. Treatment with Mdivi-1, M1, and enalapril
equally improved cognitive function in MI rats. All treatments decreased dendritic spine loss, brain
mitochondrial oxidative stress, and restored mitochondrial metabolism. Brain mitochondrial fusion
was recovered only in the Mdivi-1-treated group.

Conclusion:
Mitochondrial dynamics modulators improved cognitive function in MI rats through a
reduction of systemic oxidative stress and brain mitochondrial dysfunction and the enhancement
of mitochondrial metabolism. In addition, this mitochondrial fission inhibitor increased mitochondrial
fusion in MI rats.

Metode analisis yang digunakan adalah studi pustaka/library research dengan mengkaji secara mendalam literatur yang membahas tentang al-Gazali khususnya karya-karya dan pemikirannya. Tulisan ini membahas tentang bagaimana sebenarnya konsep ekonomi al-Ghazali? Alasan utama dipilihnya konsep ekonomi al-Ghazali adalah karena konsep tersebut memiliki kekhasan tersendiri dibandingkan dengan konsep pemikir lainnya. Penulis menyimpulkan bahwa pemikiran al-Ghazali dalam bidang ekonomi cenderung pada etika moral. Al-Ghazali mendasarkan konsep ekonominya pada konsep sufi, karena pada saat itu kekayaan dan pemerintahan resmi penuh gengsi untuk menerima pendekatan fiqh (yurisprudensi Islam) dan filosofis. Ekonom Muslim memiliki kontribusi yang lebih besar terhadap pembangunan ekonomi tidak hanya di lingkungan Islam, tetapi juga ekonomi konvensional. Penulis tulisan ini, dengan pembahasan pemikiran ekonomi para pemikir muslim, berharap wacana ekonomi Islam di kalangan akademisi menjadi lebih hidup.Keywords : Al-Ghazali; Pemikiran; Ekonomi Islam TRANSLATE with x EnglishArabicHebrewPolishBulgarianHindiPortugueseCatalanHmong DawRomanianChinese SimplifiedHungarianRussianChinese TraditionalIndonesianSlovakCzechItalianSlovenianDanishJapaneseSpanishDutchKlingonSwedishEnglishKoreanThaiEstonianLatvianTurkishFinnishLithuanianUkrainianFrenchMalayUrduGermanMalteseVietnameseGreekNorwegianWelshHaitian CreolePersian // TRANSLATE with COPY THE URL BELOW Back EMBED THE SNIPPET BELOW IN YOUR SITE Enable collaborative features and customize widget: Bing Webmaster PortalBack// This page is in Indonesian Translate to English AfrikaansAlbanianAmharicArabicArmenianAzerbaijaniBengaliBulgarianCatalanCroatianCzechDanishDutchEnglishEstonianFinnishFrenchGermanGreekGujaratiHaitian CreoleHebrewHindiHungarianIcelandicIndonesianItalianJapaneseKannadaKazakhKhmerKoreanKurdish (Kurmanji)LaoLatvianLithuanianMalagasyMalayMalayalamMalteseMaoriMarathiMyanmar (Burmese)NepaliNorwegianPashtoPersianPolishPortuguesePunjabiRomanianRussianSamoanSimplified ChineseSlovakSlovenianSpanishSwedishTamilTeluguThaiTraditional ChineseTurkishUkrainianUrduVietnameseWelsh Always translate Indonesian to EnglishPRO Never translate Indonesian Never translate ejournal.uin-suska.ac.id
KONSEP TA’DIB PADA PENDIDIKAN ISLAM DALAM PERSPEKTIF SYED MUHAMMAD NAQUIB AL-ATTAS DAN IMPLEMENTASINYA TERHADAP ADAB PERGAULAN TEMAN SEBAYA
Authors: Pratama Muhammad Surya , Wahyuni Sri 
Published: April 2024

This study aims to identify and analyze the concept of ta'dib in Islamic education from the perspective of Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas and the form of its implementation of the application of peer association. The analysis method used is literature research by examining in depth the literature that discusses the thoughts of Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas related to Islamic education then analyzing the form of its implementation in the application of peer association. The main reason for choosing the concept of ta'dib Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas is because this concept has its own characteristics in Islamic education compared to concepts from other thinkers. Where in the concept of ta'dib this leads to aspects of spirituality, where someone who receives something (adab) is not only limited to his knowledge, but he feels the meaning of a science in the soul of someone who seeks knowledge. The author hopes that there will be an application of the concept of ta'dib in Islamic education, because if Islamic education practices the concept of ta'dib in the process, where there is an effort to seed and plant adab gradually, which involves aspects of spatiality in its order, then the goal of Islam itself is achieved, namely how to produce students with good morals, especially applying adab values in associating to their peers.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi dan menganalisis konsep ta’dib pada pendidikan Islam dalam perspektif Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas dan bentuk implementasinya terhadap penerapan adab pergaulan teman sebaya. Metode analisis yang digunakan adalah penelitian kepustakaan dengan cara mengkaji secara mendalam literatur yang membahas tentang pemikiran Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas terkait pendidikan Islam kemudian dianalisis bentuk implementasinya pada penerapan adab pergaulan teman sebaya. Alasan utama dipilihnya konsep ta’dib Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas dikarenakan konsep ini memiliki karakteristik tersendiri dalam pendidikan Islam dibandingkan dengan konsep dari pemikir lainnya. Dimana dalam konsep ta’dib ini mengarahkan kepada aspek spiritualitas, dimana seseorang yang menerima sesuatu (adab) tidak hanya sebatas pada pengetahuannya saja, namun ia merasakan sampainya makna dari suatu ilmu tersebut pada jiwa seseorang yang menuntut ilmu. Penulis mengharapkan adanya penerapan konsep ta’dib ini dalam pendidikan Islam, karena jikalau pendidikan Islam mengamalkan konsep ta’dib dalam prosesnya, dimana di dalamnya ada usaha penyemaian serta penanaman adab secara bertahap, yang melibatkan aspek spitualitas dalam tatanannya, maka tercapailah tujuan Islam itu sendiri yakni bagaimana melahirkan siswa yang berakhlak baik, khususnya menerapkan nilai-nilai adab dalam bergaul kepada teman sebayanya.
‘Eastern’ Onomasticon of I. A. Bunin Prosaist: Hierarchy and Systematicity
Authors: Selemeneva O. A. , Potekhina P. S. 
Published: April 2024

This article addresses the representation of the artistic image-topos of the East in the works of I. A. Bunin. The research aim is to identify, classify, and systematize the onyms of the writer’s ‘Eastern’ onomasticon. Prosaic texts related to oriental themes and those unrelated to the Eastern topic were analyzed in the study. The following methods were employed: philosophical-logical (analysis, generalization, synthesis), descriptive, taxonomic, quantitative, and contextual analysis. It was established that Bunin’s ‘Eastern’ onomasticon is a hierarchically organized structure containing various semantic groups of real and mythological names: anthroponyms / mythoanthroponyms, toponyms / mythotoponyms, hydronyms / mythohydronyms, biblionyms, etc. It is noted that the systematicity of the explicant onyms of Bunin’s East is ensured by extralinguistic and linguistic factors: authorial presupposition, reader’s background knowledge, intratextual and intertextual connections of onyms. The authors conclude that the multifaceted toponymic series, the synonymy of choronyms and theonyms, the intersecting astionymic and mythoanthroponymic series in poetry and prose, and the onyms-intertextems indicate the syncretism of the artistic image-topos of Bunin’s East, its representation by specific geocultural images of spaces such as Egypt, Turkey, Palestine, India, etc.
THE TEACHER'S USE OF INSPIRATION AS A BASIS FOR EFFECTIVE WORK IN THE EDUCATIONAL PROCESS
Authors: AVETISYAN Mariana , KAROGHLANIAN Sossie 
Published: April 2024

The article talks about inspiration, different approaches and interpretations of scientists on the one hand, and on the other hand, it refers to the role of the teacher and how a teacher, using inspiration as a method, can influence students' learning motivation. Studies have shown that the teacher is important to the learning process.
This paper discusses the characteristics of teachers and how they must be well trained, focus on and monitor the educational process, be dedicated and responsive, build positive relationships with students, and create a safe classroom environment to maintain students’ long-term achievement.
The work is interesting and contains novelty because these two topics - inspiration and the role of the teacher - have been discussed a lot by different sciences. Still, for the first time, an attempt is made to scientifically connect these two important links and prove through research that the correct use of inspiration in the educational process can lead to unprecedented results: increased learning motivation and the effectiveness of the learning process. This article will try to substantiate our assumptions theoretically and present the research results in future works.

Published: April 2024

Abstract

Background
The global impact of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on health professionals has been profound. In response to these circumstances, the coordination committee of the Hellenic Group of Young Oncologists (HeGYO) embarked on an investigation into the well-being of its members.

Methods
For the purposes of this study, we developed a 44-question questionnaire. The responses were electronically collected and exported into data frames, which were then subjected to statistical analyses.

Results
The study cohort comprised 77 oncologists, of whom 81.7% (n=67) were under the age of 40. Survey responses highlighted the profound impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on young oncologists in Greece, with 67.5% (n=52) feeling that their work lives have not returned to pre-pandemic levels, 74% (n=57) experiencing changes in duties, and 74.0% (n=57) reporting increased working hours. Additionally, 82% (n=63) of participants reassessed their work–life balance. Notably, 92.2% (n=71) expressed fears of COVID-19 contamination, unrelated to the perceived quality of protective measures (p=0.291). Time allocated to clinical and pre-clinical research was also decreased, as reported by 36.4% (n=28) and 41.6% (n=32) respectively. Surprisingly, the pandemic did not prompt the initiation of unhealthy habits, but 51.2% (n=40) reported a reduction in physical activity.

Conclusions
In summary, this study reveals that the COVID-19 pandemic significantly altered the professional landscape for young oncologists in Greece, impacting work dynamics, research productivity, and overall well-being. These findings underscore the necessity for targeted interventions during emergencies in the healthcare in order to maintain a resilient workforce in oncology.
