Rhodamin B merupakan bahan kimia yang dilarang digunakan pada makanan dan minuman karena dapat menyebabkan gejala pembesar hati dan ginjal, gangguan fungsi hati, gangguan fisiologis tubuh, atau bahkan bisa menyebabkan timbulnya kanker hati. Namun, karena alasan mengurangi biaya produksi, menghasilkan keuntungan dan memperpanjang umur simpan, banyak produsen masih menggunakan bahan-bahan tersebut. Hal ini mungkin disebabkan oleh ketidaktahuan dan sikap acuh tak acuh produsen terhadap keamanan pangan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengetahui gambaran pengetahuan, sikap pedagang jajanan, dan penggunaan Rhodamin B pada makanan jajanan di Sekolah Dasar Negeri Kecamatan Laweyan, Surakarta.

The results of analytical and field studies of the influence of modern climatic conditions on the formation of the soil water regime on drained lands are presented. It has been determined that an increase in air temperature and uneven distribution, changes in the nature, intensity, and structure of precipitation, and an increase in the number of cases of heavy rainfall, which are local during the warm period of the year, do not allow for the effective accumulation of moisture in the soil. The formation of new conditions for the cultivation of crops and changes in the directions of the use of drained lands requires expanding the functional tasks of drainage systems and improving the efficiency of water regulation on drained lands. Due to the discrepancy between the technological integrity embedded in the existing drainage systems at the stage of their design, the technical and technological capabilities of the systems, and the modern infrastructure of the users of drained lands, operational management of the technological processes of water regulation and maintenance of the optimal water regime of the soil is not ensured today.
Studies at production sites on drainage systems typical for the drainage reclamation zone have established that carrying out a set of works to restore the channels of the open and collector-drainage network to design indicators, repairing and equipping hydraulic structures, the presence on the drainage systems of the possibility of water accumulation and the use of irrigation systems (drum-type sprinkler), made it possible to regulate the water regime of the soil and maintain humidity in the active soil layer within the limits close to optimal during the growing season. By regulating the groundwater level, the increase in the yield of crops was: spring wheat - by 19,8%, oats - by 26,5%, corn for grain - by 24,6%, and soybeans - by 48,0%. The cost of the increase in yield obtained by the water regime regulation during the study period averaged: spring wheat – 5,1 thousand UAH, oats – 4,8 thousand UAH, corn for grain – 12,9 thousand UAH, soybeans – 16,0 thousand UAH for 1 hectare. Information materials on the influence of modern climatic conditions on the formation of the soil water regime on reclaimed lands were obtained, which serve as the basis for the development of a methodology for substantiating the parameters for managing the soil water regime on reclaimed lands, taking into account the peculiarities of its formation under modern economic conditions and climate change.

Lexical means of the Iraqi dialect for description the appearance, character, and characteristics of a person
Authors: Hana Ya. Yu. J. 
Published: February 2024

The article provides an analysis of lexical constructions that are used in the modern Iraqi dialect of Arabic to describe the appearance or character of a person. The layer of vocabulary chosen for study is unique; most of the set expressions are not used in literary Arabic. The author groups the constructions under consideration by meaning, offers their translation into Russian, noting possible analogies, and also provides comments necessary to understand the semantics of a particular expression. The article also discusses constructions that reflect the influence on the Iraqi dialect a large amount of vocabulary borrowed from Persian, Turkish and English. Many borrowings of this kind are used to describe a person’s character and appearance.The vocabulary of the Arabic dialects is most susceptible to various influences and is of particular interest to the researcher, as it gives an idea of the ability of the language to constantly change, adapting to modern needs. The study of such constructions is important for a more complete understanding of the characteristics of the spoken language, and at the same time the mentality of its speakers.

Published: February 2024

Background: Because dementia is a long-term condition, the appropriate involvement of health-care professionals is considered important. However, little is known about the factors associated with changes in family caregiver burden. Objective: To clarify changes in family caregiver burden and associated factors during follow-up at a memory clinic. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted, enrolling 495 pairs of patients with dementia or mild cognitive impairment and their family caregivers. A total of 120 pairs completed the second evaluation. The caregiver burden was assessed using the Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI). Data at the initial visit and after an average follow-up of about 2 years were compared and analyzed. Results: At initial visit, the patients’ mean age, Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and ZBI scores were 78.6±5.6 years, 23.3±3.5, and 22.6±16.7, respectively. At follow-up, MMSE scores decreased (21.4±4.5, p < 0.001), but ZBI scores remained similar (22.5±13.6). When the difference in ZBI scores between the two time points was defined as ΔZBI, and the related factors were analyzed by multiple regression analysis, ZBI scores at the initial visit, start of psychotropic drug, and decrease of neuropsychiatric symptoms were identified as significant factors ( p < 0.001, p = 0.003, p < 0.001, respectively). A significant negative correlation was found between ZBI scores at the initial visit and ΔZBI ( r = –0.588, p < 0.001). Conclusions: These findings suggest the importance of assessing changes in the burden experienced by family caregivers during the disease follow-up.
The Paintings Reveal the Story: Case Study of a Well-Known Swedish Artist Suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease
Authors: Holmbom Larsen Axel , Londos Elisabet 
Published: February 2024

Background: Creativity is a multifaceted, complex, activity, and as such is an overarching function of the brain rather than being confined to a specific structure or region. Alzheimer’s disease effects several cognitive domains involved in the creative process of producing art. Objective: We analyze the art of a well-known Swedish visual artist who suffered from Alzheimer’s disease to determine if, and in what way, his art and creative process might have been influenced by the disease. Methods: We compared his artistic process and artwork along with information from his spouse, medical r ecords, and cognitive tests as well as reviews of exhibitions written by art critics. Results: We show that not only did the artist continue to produce artwork well into a major decline in cognitive function, according to commonly used tests, but he could continue to do so for even longer with some assistance from his spouse. However, the artwork changed considerably as the disease progressed. We hypothesize that there is a substantial lack of representation of creative ability and function in cognitive tests. Conclusions: Signs of the Alzheimer’s disease can be seen in the early artwork if viewed by critics and those with more specialized knowledge into the artist’s production. Further analysis of the complex interaction between complex neural activities, such as artistic creativity, and cognitive diseases is warranted and might provide insight in the field of neurological degenerative disease.
Speech Acts as a Window to the Difficulties in Instrumental Activities of Daily Living: A Qualitative Descriptive Study in Mild Neurocognitive Disorder and Healthy Aging
Authors: Filiou Renée-Pier , Brambati Simona Maria , Lussier Maxime , Bier Nathalie 
Published: February 2024

Background: Executive functions (EF) are central to instrumental activities of daily living (IADL). A novel approach to the assessment of the impact of EF difficulties on IADL may be through the speech acts produced when performing IADL-inspired tasks in a laboratory-apartment. Speech acts may act as a window to the difficulties encountered during task performance. Objective: We aim to 1) qualitatively describe the speech acts produced by participants with mild neurocognitive disorder (mild NCD) and healthy controls (HC) as they performed 4 IADL-inspired tasks in a laboratory-apartment, and to then 2) compare their use in both groups. Methods: The participants’ performance was videotaped, and speech acts produced were transcribed. Qualitative description of all speech acts was performed, followed by a deductive-inductive pattern coding of data. Statistical analyses were performed to further compare their use by mild NCD participants and HC. Results: Twenty-two participants took part in the study (n mild NCD = 11; n HC = 11). Meta-categories of data emerged from pattern coding: strategies, barriers, reactions, and consequences. Mild NCD participants used significantly more strategies and barriers than did HC. They were more defensive of their performance, and more reactive to their difficulties than HC. Mild NCD participants’ verification of having completed all tasks was less efficient than controls. Conclusions: An assessment of speech acts produced during the performance of IADL-inspired tasks in a laboratory-apartment may allow to detect changes in the use of language which may reflect EF difficulties linked to cognitive decline.

Objective: This study aims to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on postpartum contraceptive methods.
Methods: This retrospective descriptive study was conducted at a single secondary center, utilizing secondary data retrieved from medical records at the Inpatient Installation of Sebelas Maret University Hospital, Surakarta, covering the period from January 2020 to January 2022.
Results: Among users of intra-uterine devices (IUDs), 85% were below 35 years old, 65% were primiparous, 67% had a history of previous injectable contraceptive use, 79% received routine antenatal care, and 51% had education below a college level. These individuals were educated about the importance of contraceptive programs during the COVID-19 pandemic. Sixty-six percent of IUD insertions were conducted via vaginal delivery, and 27% had health facilities within less than 1 km. In contrast, tubectomy contraceptive users comprised 106 patients, with the majority (54%) being aged 35 years or older, all being multiparous, and 25% tested positive for COVID-19. Among tubectomy users, 43% had a history of previous injectable contraceptive use, 85% received routine antenatal care, and 54% had education below a college level. Similar to the IUD group, they were educated about the significance of contraceptive programs during the COVID-19 pandemic. Eighty-four percent of tubectomies were performed via cesarean section, and 27% of patients lived within less than 1 km from health facilities.
Conclusion: The usage rates of intra-uterine devices and tubectomy for contraceptives remained stable during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, there was a decrease in postpartum in-person visits and mobility, coupled with an increase in hospitalizations.Keywords: contraceptive; family planning; intrauterine device; tubectomy

Published: February 2024

BackgroundThe accurate identification of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) and different nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) species is crucial for the timely diagnosis of NTM infections and for reducing poor prognoses. Nucleotide matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) has been extensively used for microbial identification with high accuracy and throughput. However, its efficacy for Mycobacterium species identification has been less studied. The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of nucleotide MALDI-TOF-MS for Mycobacterium species identification.MethodsA total of 933 clinical Mycobacterium isolates were preliminarily identified as NTM by the MPB64 test. These isolates were identified by nucleotide MALDI-TOF-MS and Sanger sequencing. The performance of nucleotide MALDI-TOF MS for identifying various Mycobacterium species was analyzed based on Sanger sequencing as the gold standard.ResultsThe total correct detection rate of all 933 clinical Mycobacterium isolates using nucleotide MALDI-TOF-MS was 91.64% (855/933), and mixed infections were detected in 18.65% (174/933) of the samples. The correct detection rates for Mycobacterium intracellulare, Mycobacterium abscessus, Mycobacterium kansasii, Mycobacterium avium, MTBC, Mycobacterium gordonae, and Mycobacterium massiliense were 99.32% (585/589), 100% (86/86), 98.46% (64/65), 94.59% (35/37), 100.00% (34/34), 95.65% (22/23), and 100% (19/19), respectively. For the identification of the MTBC, M. intracellulare, M. abscessus, M. kansasii, M. avium, M. gordonae, and M. massiliense, nucleotide MALDI-TOF-MS and Sanger sequencing results were in good agreement (k &gt; 0.7).ConclusionIn conclusion, nucleotide MALDI-TOF-MS is a promising approach for identifying MTBC and the most common clinical NTM species.
