Authors: Abdullah Najihah Hakimah , Saerahany Legori Ibrahim  , Mohd Rosli Nur Aqilah , Handan Rabitah , Mohd Zamri 
Published: January 2024

Sediment yield is the net result of soil erosion and sediment deposition processes. In the watershed, sediment yields are dominantly determined by stream flow, drainage area, and channel size. Land-use activity conducted by human is one of the major contributions to the sediment yield in the watershed. The study area covered in this study is the Sungai Pusu which flows through International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM). Significant amount of sediments is deposited in Sungai Pusu due to the improper land clearing activities that are taking place along the river’s main tributaries. As a result, the water quality of Sungai Pusu is rapidly deteriorating. Sediment yield estimation is crucial in order to design suitable measure to rehabilitate the river. The aim of this study is to estimate sediment yield at Sungai Pusu watershed using SWAT model. Remote sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS) were used to evaluate sedimentation over time in the Sungai Pusu watershed. The SWAT model was performed to simulate water balance, stream flow, and sediment yield. The annual sediment yield obtained by the model is 427-ton ha-1 year-1.

Authors: Shanmugamani Karishma , Mohamad Fazeeda 
Published: January 2024

As one of the key steps in the manufacturing supply chain, warehousing is in the position of controlling inventories. The success of realised goods movements can often be measured by how well warehouse activities are carried out. The goal of this study is to identify the problems with inventory management in warehouses and to install WMS to enhance inventory control in a warehouse setting. In industries such as manufacturing and other forms of production, efficient warehousing and management of inventory is essential. A systematic evaluation is used throughout the literature to investigate warehouse operational challenges and how they impact performance measures. As clients develop increasingly sophisticated and require precise, safe, and rapid information communication, this study develops and comprehends the usage of technological advances to support the business and incorporate trustworthiness, control, and flexibility into the daily operations of warehouses. The main goal of this study was to enhance the work management system of the organisation. The outcomes from this study offer a few helpful suggestions on applying WMS practises within the organisation.
Influence of Clad Layer Thickness of Aluminium Alloy by Friction Surface Cladding Process
Authors: Yusoff N.I. , Sulaiman L.H. 
Published: January 2024

Friction Surface Cladding (FSC) is a process that enables the deposition of clad material on a substrate through a hollow rotating tool to create thin clad layers at sufficiently high temperatures. Heat is produced during the cladding process by friction at the tool-clad layer and the substrate. This study focus on the influence of clad layer thickness of aluminium alloy AA2024 at the control process temperature around 300℃ to 350℃. The material used is AA2024-T4 for the clad layer and AA2024-T351 for the substrate. A thermal model is built using COMSOL Multiphysics 6.0 and Heat Transfer in Solid (ht) with time-dependent study is used to study the heat transformation as well as optimize the rotational speed at different clad layer thicknesses. The major finding in this study indicates that the heat generated is proportional to the clad layer thickness. The highest heat transformation can be seen at the cladding region between the cladding rod and the substrate and the temperature reaches a maximum of 333.95℃.
“Entre Verlaine y el buey de este trapiche”: poesía de Alfredo Sancho
Authors: Fuentes Belgrave Laura 
Published: January 2024

La sección de literatura de la edición n.° 33 presenta poesía de la obra muy poco divulgada y estudiada de Alfredo Sancho, poeta y dramaturgo costarricense, quien nació el 16 de abril de 1924 y falleció en México en 1990. Según el académico y poeta Carlos Rafael Duverrán, Sancho perteneció a la primera generación vanguardista, o generación perdida (1917-1927) de la literatura en Costa Rica, país donde fundó el Teatro Universitario (1951), el Experimental de Costa Rica (1953), el Teatro de la Prensa (1956) y el Instituto Nacional de Artes Dramáticas (1961).
Del libro Cantera bruta (1965), antología de poesía de Alfredo Sancho, con ilustraciones y texto en la contraportada del connotado artista Francisco Amighetti, también costarricense, se reproducen los siguientes poemas, cuya luz singularísima poetiza la cotidianidad y “comunica su espíritu, para adherirse a un sistema de expresiones que está más allá de la lingüística”, tal como fue descrita su obra por la escritora Yolanda Oreamuno.
Cazadores-recolectores de la transición Pleistoceno/Holoceno Temprano de Jaywamachay, Ayacucho
Authors: Yataco Capcha Juan , Nami Hugo G. 
Published: January 2024

Between 1966 and 1968, Richard MacNeish led the "Ayacucho Archaeological-Botanical Project" program in the Ayacucho basin, Huamanga province. There, they found more than 450 sites with human occupations. The Jaywamachay eaves stand out for their exhumed archaeological record. Excavations in 1969 and 1970 revealed the region's oldest human occupations. Detailed descriptions were published only for specimens corresponding to hunter-gatherers living during the last millennium of the Pleistocene and using Fell points. Due to the importance of these findings, the lithic remains (n = 4,388) contained in the twelve earliest strata of the site that present an age ranging between 11,603 and 9,556 calibrated years before the present were organized and studied. The analysis allowed us to identify two clear artifactual sets of different techno-morphological characteristics and chronologies. Due to the similarities of the instruments and their association with consistent calibration dating, archaeological remains from strata H to J were left between ~≥10.3 - 9 kya by Early Holocene hunter-gatherers. From J1 to J3, human occupations lived during the Pleistocene/Holocene transition between 12.6 and 10.2 kya, and used Fell Points. These records make Jaywamachay one of the most significant sites to learn about the earliest human groups that inhabited the Ayacucho basin in the past.

Authors: Saavedra Salinas Lizbeth Bretania , Sánchez Benites Félix Santiago 
Published: January 2024

Esta investigación consiste en la evaluación económica y técnica de dos sistemas de construcción utilizados en la industria. Se realizó la comparación del costo, duración de la fase del casco y nivel de residuos de construcción por sistema. Los sistemas analizados son: i) Viguetas prefabricadas y ii) Prelosas prefabricadas, aplicado en el edificio multifamiliar Sente. Además, se presenta el criterio del nivel tecnológico, que muestra la reducción del plazo con el sistema de prelosas, en comparación con el de viguetas. Como parte de la evaluación económica se estimaron los costos que implica cada sistema, acorde a su secuencia constructiva y periodos de ejecución. El resultado fue que el sistema de prelosas, en comparación al de viguetas, logra reducir el costo de obra en 3.4%, el plazo del casco en 10% (acumulado entre ambas torres). También este sistema disminuye la generación de residuos sólidos de construcción, porque requiere 18.5% menos de concreto in situ en obra, que el de viguetas prefabricadas.
Mujeres en ciencia: Los desafíos de las dentistas-científicas en Perú
Authors: Quispe-Salcedo Angela 
Published: January 2024

El rol de la mujer en la ciencia, especialmente en STEM (Ciencia, tecnología, ingeniería y matemáticas; por sus siglas en inglés) ha avanzado dramáticamente a través de los años, a pesar de todos los obstáculos característicos de cada siglo 1. La estructura social había considerado a la mujer como cuidadora de la casa y de los niños, además de ser consideradas inferiores en términos de intelecto y empleo 2. Áreas como medicina y la naciente odontología, que en el siglo diecinueve estaban dominadas por hombres, albergan ahora en las aulas universitarias grupos igualitarios de estudiantes de ambos géneros. Aun cuando el progreso es evidente en cuanto al acceso a la formación profesional en ciencias de la salud, el camino hacia la obtención de puestos de responsabilidad mayor, o toma de decisiones, sigue siendo desigual para las mujeres en estas áreas.
Reflexiones sobre las masculinidades, sus construcciones sociales y sus “crisis”
Authors: Pessina Itriago María M. 
Published: January 2024

En este texto se pretende analizar las masculinidades hegemónicas e híbridas, así como su relación, la cual se ha centrado en hombres jóvenes, blancos y heterosexuales, y ha reproducido de esta forma estructuras de género, raza y desigualdades sexuales entre otras condiciones que entretejen y sostienen las desigualdades que se posicionan en las estructuras sociales, marginando aquellas masculinidades subordinadas. Esto, sin dejar de lado, estudios que problematizan sobre la condición relacional y de poder que implica la división binaria del género. En este sentido, se analizan estudios recientes para abordar desde la teoría postcolonial las bases que establecen aún a un sujeto único que invisibiliza las representaciones de la otredad. De esta manera, destacar que las prácticas masculinas híbridas funcionan para fortalecer los límites simbólicos y sociales, como también contribuyen a eternizar las jerarquías de maneras más sutiles.
Finalmente, el objetivo del artículo es entender que las nuevas masculinidades han generado modelos emergentes que les permite penetrar con mayor facilidad a los espacios disputados por mujeres o grupos marginados en donde estos últimos han ganado espacios. Por todo ello, preguntarnos si estas nuevas formas son estrategias para sostener la dominación de los grupos históricamente hegemónicos y de poder.
Modelos Universitarios y Gobierno Corporativo. Trayectorias del capitalismo académico
Authors: Salazar J. Mauro , Del Valle Rojas Carlos 
Published: January 2024

El ensayo desarrolla una descripción de los criterios corporativos y empresariales cristalizados en la tesis del «gobierno corporativo» que abraza la academia anglosajona a partir de la desregulación del Welfare State. A poco andar la nueva gestión surte efectos en la Universidad latinoamericana teniendo como centro gravitacional un nuevo paradigma vinculado al rational choice. Esto último, que gradualmente afectó a los Estados Europeos en la segunda mitad de los años 70, reditúa modelos de organización y gestión que integran nuevas formas entre mundos públicos, esferas privadas y figuras mixtas ante la mundialización de la educación terciaria. Bajo este contexto irrumpe la gobernanza, cuya transición hacia el gobierno corporativo, responde a innovaciones de gestión, administración y optimización de la producción dentro del régimen posfordista. Tal proceso estimuló, la participación de agentes no estatales en la emergente «Universidad glonacal» (global, nacional y local). El declive material del régimen de «saber moderno», será la condición para intensificar una oferta terciaria centrada en el ascenso del capitalismo académico, una vez que la universidad de los erarios fiscales y la episteme gerencial, ha devenido hegemónica en América Latina.
Test information and it using
Authors: Andziulienė Beatričė , Andziulis Arūnas , Bakanauskaitė Sonata 
Published: January 2024

The questions of quality of test and test information by using Items Response Theory (IRT) are discussed in this work. Using the IRT gives many chances to make an effective test:

to measure not only difficult of everyone test's item, but what number of information it brings in test;
to get an even distribution of items by its difficulty which is harmonize with abilities of testing person;
if it's known how many item gets information in test, it's possible to make a test which will evaluate the abilities of testing person group best.

Analyse of test's results gives more reversible information for adjustment of education process. Also it lets to diagnose the vacancy of education process:

to detect what themes are mastered worst;
to find the more difficult items.

The reversible information of test lets to recognize the testing persons:

to measure the total testing person's abilities;
to detect the vacancies of everyone testing person;
to know how everyone of testing person can to work the different type of items.

The employing of IRT technologies is correct in different stages of testing process. It helps in objectively evaluating the test quality and increasing efficiency of education process.
The estimation of characteristics of tested persons and parameters of test items in the same scale enables to compare the ability of person with the difficult of item. It enables to create the modern potted systems of paperless learning control.
La teoría de la segunda naturaleza de Hegel. El “lapso” del espíritu
Authors: Menke Christoph , Rebelles Santiago , Zuñiga Francisco 
Published: January 2024

Mientras que en las concepciones neoaristotélicas de la virtud y la Bildung el concepto de segunda naturaleza describe la culminación exitosa de la educación humana, Hegel utiliza este término para analizar la naturaleza irremediablemente ambigua, incluso conflictiva, del espíritu. El espíritu solo puede realizarse a sí mismo creando (1) una segunda naturaleza como orden de libertad, perdiéndose a sí mismo, o (2) una segunda naturaleza, es decir, un orden de exterioridad, regido por los automatismos inconscientes del hábito. En la segunda acepción del término, segunda naturaleza refiere a la inversión de sí mismo del espíritu. Por otro lado, la misma inversión de la libre posición en la existencia objetiva es el momento del éxito del espíritu (“absoluto”). El artículo expone esta ambigüedad indecidible de la segunda naturaleza y afirma que su aceptación y desarrollo son las condiciones de una comprensión adecuada de la constitución y las formas de la segunda naturaleza.

AbstractAn ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method was developed for the determination of nobiletin and tangeretin in rat plasma, and the plasma was processed by a simple liquid-liquid extraction method with ethyl acetate. The chromatographic column was UPLC HSS T3 (50 × 2.1 mm, 1.7 μm), the mobile phase was acetonitrile-water (containing 0.1% formic acid). Multiple reaction monitoring mode (MRM) was used for quantitative analysis, nobiletin m/z 403.29 → 373.14 (cone voltage 22v, collision voltage 28v), tangeretin m/z 373.28 → 343.17 (cone voltage 20v, collision voltage 28V), tangeretin m/z 373.28 → 343.17 (cone voltage 20V, collision voltage 28V) and internal standard vitexin m/z 433.14 → 313.03 (cone voltage 32v, collision voltage 26v). The pharmacokinetics of nobiletin and tangeretin were evaluated in rats. The established UPLC-MS/MS method in the range of 2–2,000 ng mL−1 was successfully applied to the pharmacokinetics, and the calculated bioavailability of nobiletin and tangeretin was 63.9 and 46.1%, respectively.

Authors: Demidova T. Yu. , Ushanova F. O. , Bogacheva T. L. 
Published: January 2024

Clinical guidelines increasingly emphasize the importance of multifactorial treatment of type 2 diabetes (DM2), including both glycemic control and body weight control, comprehensive management of classical cardiological risk factors, as well as the use of drugs with proven cardionephroprotective effects to reduce the risk of long-term complications. The development of semaglutide, a long—acting and highly homologous receptor agonist of glucagon-like peptide-1 (arGPP-1) based on a widely recognized representative of the liraglutide class, was an important milestone in expanding the possibilities of disease management, and the successes achieved in the clinical research program of the drug contributed to the formation of the above aspects of the recommendations.The clinical efficacy of semaglutide was evaluated in the framework of the SUSTAIN clinical research program for more than 10,000 patients with DM2. The program includes 6 major global studies of Phase IIIa (SUSTAIN 1-6) and 5 studies of phase IIIb (SUSTAIN 7-11), as well as a number of other studies and analyses.The development of a domestic reproduced drug containing semaglutide will increase the availability of semaglutide preparations in the Russian Federation, as well as significantly more effectively control the level of glycemia in patients with DM2. This review presents the results of the efficacy and safety of semaglutide, including the Russian bioequivalent drug semaglutide.

Sergi (Department of Geriatrics, University of Padua, Italy); the calculation of appendicular musculoskeletal mass and its index is based on the values of anthropometry and bioimpedance analysis of body composition.Results:the matrix of the ASMM Calculator allows you to determine objective quantitative criteria for sarcopenia (appendicular musculoskeletal mass and its index) based on the values of five independent variables: the patient’s gender; height and body weight, electrical and reactive esistance of the body, the program provides for use directly in outpatient admission, has a volume of 12 kB, does not require specific hardware and software means, can be installed on a mobile device.Conclusions: the use of the ASMM calculator in clinical practice allows the doctor to establish diagnostic criteria for sarcopenia in a timely manner, does not require significant professional time, provides grounds for verifying the diagnosis in accordance with the principles of evidence-based medicine; the program can be integrated into various medical information systems as a module of the medical decision support system.
Postprandial hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia
Authors: Akmedova A. A. , Ushanova F. O. 
Published: January 2024

Reactive hypoglycemia is a relatively rare hypoglycemic condition that develops due to the intake of large amounts of easily digestible carbohydrates. RG can be the result of an excessive insulin response associated with either insulin resistance or increased levels of glucagon-like peptide-1 and defects in glucagon regulation, and the most common cause of postprandial hypoglycemia (50-70%) is high insulin sensitivity. Such situations can occur in people who are very thin or who have significantly lost weight. The development of WG may be influenced by the patient’s dietary habits (high carbohydrate, low fat diet, alcohol consumption). In these conditions, insulin secretion becomes inadequate to blood glucose levels, causing hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia.This article presents a clinical case of a patient with idiopathic reactive hypoglycemia, which began to be observed in adolescence and was characterized by a decrease in glycemic levels in response to foods high in easily digestible carbohydrates
Rasmussen syndrome: absence seizures may be induced by oxcarbazepine
Authors: Caraballo Roberto H. , Cachia Pedro , Valenzuela Gabriela Reyes , Calvo Agustin 
Published: January 2024

ABSTRACTA female patient with electroclinical and neuroradiological features compatible with Rasmussen syndrome developed a particular clinical and EEG pattern. As the seizures were refractory to valproate at 750 mg/kg/day, oxcarbazepine (OXC) at 30 mg/kg/day was added. Seizures became more frequent and on neurological examination, no hemiparesis was detected. The interictal EEG showed focal spikes and diffuse paroxysms in the right fronto‐temporal regions. Brain MRI revealed right hemiatrophy, mainly at the Sylvian fissure. After initiating OXC daily, brief absence seizures, lasting less than 20 seconds and associated with bilateral and synchronous 2.5‐3‐Hz spike‐and‐waves compatible with typical absences, were observed. OXC was discontinued and the typical absences disappeared. Treatment with intravenous gammaglobulin was started. At the last control visit, at nine years of age, no absence seizures were observed either by the parents or on the EEG recording. Our patient who met the diagnostic criteria for Rasmussen syndrome presented with absence seizures that may have been induced by OXC. The absence seizures disappeared after OXC was discontinued.

ABSTRACTAims. Epilepsy with auditory features (EAF) is a focal epilepsy syndrome characterized by prominent auditory ictal manifestations. Two main genes, LGI1 and RELN, have been implicated in EAF, but the genetic aetiology remains unknown in half of families and most sporadic cases. We previously described a pathogenic SCN1A missense variant (p.Thr956Met) segregating in a large family in which the proband and her affected daughter had EAF, thus satisfying the minimum requirement for diagnosis of autosomal dominant EAF (ADEAF). However, the remaining eight affected family members had clinical manifestations typically found in families with genetic epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (GEFS+). We aimed to investigate the role/impact of SCN1A mutations in EAF.Methods. We detailed the phenotype of this family and report on SCN1A screening in a cohort of 29 familial and 52 sporadic LGI1 variant‐negative EAF patients.Results. We identified two possibly pathogenic missense variants (p.Tyr790Phe and p.Thr140Ile) in sporadic patients (3.8%) showing typical EAF and no antecedent febrile seizures. Both p.Thr956Met and p.Tyr790Phe were previously described in unrelated patients with epilepsies within the GEFS+ spectrum.Conclusion. SCN1A mutations may be involved in EAF within the GEFS+ spectrum, however, the role of SCN1A in EAF without features that lead to a suspicion of underlying GEFS+ remains unclear and should be elucidated in future studies.
