Authors: Lianti Lita , Sinaga Febryos Pernandes , Fitryani Dina 
Published: February 2024

Goat’s milk consumption (9.6 litre/capita/year) by Indonesian is still lower than cow’s milk consumption (11.8 6 litre/capita/year). One of the causes is because the goaty flavour in goat’s milk. Yoghurt is increasingly in demand, especially for people with lactose intolerance. Yoghurt is preffered because of its probiotics. Innovation in adding red ginger extract in goat milk yoghurt processing is expected can increase public interest in goat’s milk consumption. Besides being able to decrease the goaty flavour, red ginger extract could have more health benefits because of its bioactive contents. This study analysed fermentation time’s effect on the chemical and microbiological characteristics goat’s milk yoghurt (YSK) and goat’s milk yoghurt with red ginger extract (YSK EJM). This study is designed with Randomized Group Design (RGD). The first factor (A) is a different type of yoghurt, namely A1=goat's milk yoghurt without added red ginger extract and A2=goat's milk yoghurt with red ginger extract. The second factor (B) is the fermentation time (P1= 0 hours, P2= 6 hours, P3= 12 hours, P4= 18 hours, and P5= 24 hours. Data were obtained by two replications and two repititions. Ph and total titrated acid between YSK and YSK EJM were significantly different (p<0.05) after 12 hours fermentation. Total Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) for the two variations were different after 18 hours fermentation. Total LAB reached 106 CFU/ml for 12 hours fermentation and continuesly increased for 24 hours fermentation, YSK (5.32 x 107 CFU/ml) and YSK EJM (2.83 x 107 CFU/ml).
Comparative Study of Aromatic and Non-Aromatic Rice Farming in Farmer Groups in Talo Sub-District, Seluma District
Authors: Feriady Anton , Mutmainnah Elni 
Published: February 2024

In general, aromatic rice is included in a special rice class according to geographical indications because its quality and aroma characteristics depend on the region, it cannot be cultivated anywhere (Ministry of Agriculture Number 48 of 2017 concerning special rice). Non-aromatic rice is local rice that is cultivated and used to produce output or results in the form of local rice. On the other hand, aromatic rice farming is not carried out by many farmers, especially farmers in Seluma Regency, in fact there are only a few of them. The aim of this research is to examine comparative aromatic and non-aromatic rice farming in Talo District, Seluma Regency. The determination of the research location was carried out purposively, with the consideration that the research location was a farmer group that was active and continuously cultivated aromatic and non-aromatic rice, namely the Muda Sepakat farmer group and the Seijoan farmer group.
The profit from rice farming in two aromatic and non-aromatic varieties in Talo District, Seluma Regency is that in the aromatic rice business, it can be seen that the average profit received during each planting season is IDR. 20,391,000, while the average profit for non-aromatics in one planting season is IDR. 15,850,500. so the difference in profit between the two varieties is Rp. 4,540,500. Aromatic rice farming is more profitable than non-aromatic rice.

Abstract
We present Keck Cosmic Web Imager Lyα integral field spectroscopy of the fields surrounding 14 damped Lyα absorbers (DLAs) at z ≈ 2. Of these 14 DLAs, nine have high metallicities ([M/H] > − 0.3), and four of those nine feature a CO-emitting galaxy at an impact parameter ≲30 kpc. Our search reaches median Lyα line flux sensitivities of ∼2 × 10−17 erg s−1 cm−2 over apertures of ∼6 kpc and out to impact parameters of ∼50 kpc. We recover the Lyα flux of three known Lyα-emitting H i-selected galaxies in our sample. In addition, we find two Lyα emitters at impact parameters of ≈50–70 kpc from the high-metallicity DLA at z ≈ 1.96 toward QSO B0551-366. This field also contains a massive CO-emitting galaxy at an impact parameter of ≈15 kpc. Apart from the field with QSO B0551-366, we do not detect significant Lyα emission in any of the remaining eight high-metallicity DLA fields. Considering the depth of our observations and our ability to recover previously known Lyα emitters, we conclude that H i-selected galaxies associated with high-metallicity DLAs at z ≈ 2 are dusty and therefore might feature low Lyα escape fractions. Our results indicate that complementary approaches—using Lyα, CO, Hα, and [C ii] 158 μm emission—are necessary to identify the wide range of galaxy types associated with z ≈ 2 DLAs.
One Fits All: A Unified Synchrotron Model Explains GRBs with FRED-shape Pulses

Abstract
The analysis of gamma-ray burst (GRB) spectra often relies on empirical models lacking a distinct physical explanation. Previous attempts to couple physical models with observed data focus on individual burst studies, fitting models to segmented spectra with independent physical parameters. However, these approaches typically neglect to explain the time evolution of observed spectra. In this study, we propose a novel approach by incorporating the synchrotron radiation model to provide a self-consistent explanation for a selection of single-pulse GRBs. Our study comprehensively tests the synchrotron model under a unified physical condition, such as a single injection event of electrons. By tracing the evolution of cooling electrons in a decaying magnetic field, our model predicts time-dependent observed spectra that align well with the data. Using a single set of physical parameters, our model successfully fits all time-resolved spectra within each burst. Our model suggests that the rising phase of the GRB light curve results from the increasing number of radiating electrons, while the declining phase is attributed to the curvature effect, electron cooling, and the decaying magnetic field. Our model provides a straightforward interpretation of the peak energy’s evolution, linked to the decline of the magnetic field and electron cooling due to the expansion of the GRB emission region. Our findings strongly support the notion that spectral and temporal evolution in GRB pulses originates from the expansion of the GRB emission region, with an initial radius of approximately 1015 cm, and synchrotron radiation as the underlying emission mechanism.
Magnetic Relaxation Seen in a Rapidly Evolving Light Bridge in a Sunspot

Published: February 2024

Abstract
We report a magnetic relaxation process inside a sunspot associated with the evolution of a transient light bridge (LB). From high-resolution imaging and spectro-polarimetric data taken by the 1.6 m Goode Solar Telescope installed at Big Bear Solar Observatory, we observe the evolutionary process of a rapidly evolving LB. The LB is formed as a result of the strong intrusion of filamentary structures with relatively horizontal fields into the vertical umbral field region. A strong current density is detected along a localized region where the magnetic field topology changes rapidly in the sunspot, especially in the boundary region between the LB and the umbra, and bright jets are observed intermittently and repeatedly in the chromosphere along this region through magnetic reconnection. In the second half of our observation, the horizontal component of the magnetic field diminishes within the LB, and the typical convection structure within the sunspot, which manifests itself as umbral dots, is restored. Our findings provide a comprehensive perspective not only on the evolution of an LB itself but also on its impacts in the neighboring regions, including the chromospheric activity and the change of magnetic energy of a sunspot.

Authors: Mafla Ana Cristina , Herrera-López Mauricio , Dorado-Pantoja Gabriela Tatiana , López-Ruano Karent Jheurany , Saa-Valentierra Lilibeth , Gallardo-Pino Carmen , Schwendicke Falk 
Published: February 2024

Background:
Oral health literacy (OHL) is the ability of individuals to obtain, process, and understand oral health information and services, allowing them to make appropriate oral health decisions. The association between OHL and tooth loss and replacement have not been well understood.

Objectives:
We aimed to determine the association between OHL and tooth loss and replacement in a Colombia population.

Methods:
A cross-sectional study of 384 older adults age 65 to 89 years from Pasto, Colombia was carried out. The number of lost and replaced teeth was assessed intraorally; sociodemographic and prosthetic characteristics were collected, and the Health Literacy in Dentistry questionnaire was used to evaluate OHL. Generalized linear models were estimated to assess associations between independent variables (including OHL) and the number of lost and replaced teeth.

Key Results:

There were 224 (58.3%) men and 160 (41.7%) women. The mean (standard deviation [SD]) number of lost and replaced teeth was 27.78 (4.03) and 12.53 (9.89), respectively. One hundred fifty five (40.4%) individuals had full removable dental protheses, 122 (31.8%) partial removable dental protheses, 68 (17.7%) fixed prosthetics, and 36 (9.4%) dental implants. OHL was 33.29 (6.59) and significantly positively associated with the number of replaced teeth (
β
= 0.65, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.52–0.78,
p
< .001), but not with lost teeth.

Conclusions:

OHL may foster individuals' capabilities to replace lost teeth, although we did not find it associated with reduced tooth loss, likely as tooth loss was highly common in this older population. [

Health researchers’ efforts in bridging evidence into policy and decision making in Malawi
Authors: Mapulanga Patrick 
Published: February 2024

Background: Health research is typically disseminated through peer-reviewed journals and academic forums. However, evidence suggests limited exploration of alternative communication methods for effective knowledge dissemination.Objectives: This study aimed to determine the extent to which policymakers in Malawi consult health researchers while translating their knowledge. This study aimed to determine the post-research endeavours of Malawian health researchers to incorporate research findings into policy and decision making.Method: Conducted at Kamuzu University of Health Sciences (KUHeS), this cross-sectional study employed a 5-point Likert scale survey to collect data from researchers, offering a snapshot view without indicating temporal changes or causality.Results: Researchers rarely created suggestions, take-home messages, or actionable instructions for use by health officials. They seldom give users access to a searchable database of papers, studies, and syntheses that summarise recommendations for policymakers in the field of health. They seldom send reprints of papers from scientific publications to decision-makers. Few researchers have created summaries of articles or systematic reviews for health officials’ use.Conclusion: Traditional channels, such as journals and conferences, dominate the dissemination of health research. However, limited evidence suggests the need for broader communication strategies. The current landscape lacks effective products and methods, urging researchers to produce accessible formats with clear, key messages to address policy questions.Contribution: Researchers should develop research products in compelling formats by using clear key messages. The summarised evidence should answer important policy questions. Researchers should involve the media to communicate their research outputs.

Published: February 2024

Globally, social protection plays a pivotal role in poverty reduction and has been adopted to address the needs of vulnerable populations in society, including persons with disabilities. Social protection is an essential mechanism to achieve sustainable development. The United Nations’ Agenda 2030 Sustainable Development Goals seek, among others, to ensure that state parties implement social protection which could prevent situations that adversely impact the well-being of their poor citizens. Poverty lingers in Ghana, despite interventions developed under the National Social Protection Policy. Disability is a social, economic, mental, and public health issue with over a billion of the world’s population living with some form of disability. Persons with disabilities are disproportionately poor because of challenges and barriers to their inclusion and full-effective participation in society. Guided by the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and the Sustainable Development Goals, we conducted a content analysis of the National Social Protection Policy of Ghana. Twin-track approach to social policy development, modification to existing social protection programmes and the inclusion of persons with disabilities in decision-making processes are among the recommendations to address the needs of persons with disabilities in Ghana.

Leveraging Ubuntu values and principles as cultural strength to overcome mental health and emotional wellbeing issues
Authors: Kagola Frieda , Abur William 
Published: February 2024

There is a need for African people living in Australia to consider leveraging Ubuntu values as a cultural strength to address mental health and emotional wellbeing issues. for African people living in Australia. This paper is a systematic review research which employed key terms such as mental health, emotional wellbeing, African Australian, Young people. There were no participants involved, however the research articles that were reviewed in the study only focused on the African Australian community. Mental health issues among African Australian youth need to be better understood, as studies have shown they are at a higher risk for mental health, yet there has been insufficient research on the topic. In this study, most articles we employed highlighted that the extensive research on that reported migrants to be at ten times higher risk of experiencing mental health issues compared to the general population. Many studies carried out in the African Australian community have drawn more attention to the African Australian culture. This raises the need for research to be conducted on African Australian young people aged 15-29 years which is the Australian age range of a young person, to sensitize the African Australian community on mental health issues, and factors leading to young people's mental health problems in African Australian society. The aim of the study was to raise awareness about mental health issues facing the African, Australian young people and suggesting ways forward to support young people. The finding of the study demonstrates significance and values to address mental health issues in African-Australian Community groups. Research asserted that young immigrants are at greater risk of developing mental illness due to resettlement, cultural transition, and separation from extended family members. Young people lacking a secure base for emotional support from their families are more likely to face mental health issues in their lives. Mental health issues in the African context may not be categorized as a vast problem, but instead identified as life circumstances that every individual encounter. Since mental health subject is a taboo in the African culture, the study encouraged young people to pair up with other African youths to create awareness and advocate to access mental health services should need arise. This study encourages young people and their families from African heritage to leverage Ubuntu values and principles as their cultural strengths in dealing with challenging issues such as mental health and emotional wellbeing issues.

Awareness, perception and constraints to consumption of pro-vitamin a cassava foods among women of reproductive age in Ikire, Nigeria
Authors: Ariyo O. , Oladejo E.O. , Atojoko M.A. 
Published: February 2024

Pro-vitamin A cassava was introduced to Nigeria since 2011; however, the consumption remains low. Increased consumption of pro-vitamin A cassava foods can complement other vitamin A deficiency control initiatives. The study was designed to assess the awareness, perception and constraints to consumption of provitamin A cassava foods among women of reproductive age in rural and urban areas of Ikire, Nigeria. The cross-sectional study involved 200 women aged 15-49 years (100 each), selected using a three- stage sampling procedure. Data were collected using an interviewer-administered questionnaire including awareness, perception, and constraints to biofortified cassava products consumption. Data were analyzed using frequencies, percentages and Chi square test at p < 0.05. Age of respondents was 31.50±9.30 years and 27.00±9.80 years among rural and urban respondents, respectively. More respondents from rural (22%) than urban areas (2%) had no formal education. More respondents from urban than rural had ever heard (55%; 53%), seen (49%; 43%), tasted (40%; 29%), were aware of the benefits (36%; 9%), and had ever consumed (20%; 16%) biofortified cassava foods, respectively. Acceptability of colour (29%; 24%), taste (27%; 20%), aroma/flavour (26%; 20%), and texture (26%; 18%) was higher in rural than urban areas, respectively. Only 12% and 2% of urban and rural respondents considered pro-vitamin A cassava foods affordable. Rural/urban variation exists in awareness and perception of pro-vitamin A cassava foods, however, knowledge of their benefits and perceived affordability remain major constraints in both areas. A multi-faceted approach to promote nutrition education and policy support for increased affordability are recommended.
