Published: October 2022

This study aims to analyze the influence of capital variables and type of business on the income of Muslim women living in coastal areas in Aceh Province. The population in this study is Coastal Women who do business in Aceh Province by selecting samples using a purposive sampling technique with the criteria that women who do business have a fishing husband, living on the coast in the districts of Nagan Raya, Lhokseumawe and Aceh Besar. Primary data were obtained from interviews and questionnaires with coastal women as many as 90 coastal women doing business. Whereas secondary data was obtained from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), District Community Empowerment Agency (BPM) and the internet. The analysis first uses the validity and reliability test and then the hypothesis is tested using multiple regression tests to find out whether an independent variable influences the motivation of coastal women with a significance level of 5% which aims to see how the overall relationship between capital and type of business affects women's business income Muslims in Aceh Province. The results show the simultaneous influence of both Capital Variables (X1) and Type of business (X2) significantly influencing Muslim women's Business Income. Based on the regression coefficient of the Capital Variable (X1) and Business Type (X2) partially there is a positive and significant effect on the Coastal Muslim Women's Business Income in Aceh Province.

Published: October 2022

This paper reviews the listening comprehension orientations and strategies in learning English language among L2 learners. Listening skill is one of the most critical key in learning English language. Listening comprehension is a process of understanding the language input in which helps the EFL learners to receive and interact with language input and enables the emergence of other language skills. Heavy research was carried out concerning listening comprehension problems and strategies. Thus, this paper reviews approximately 50 papers with a time span from 2010 to 2019. By searching on Google Scholar and Research Gate for the terms: listening comprehension, listening comprehension orientations, listening comprehension difficulties, and listening comprehension strategies. In general, most studies found that whenever EFL learners face a difficulty in listening, they try to find out the most effective listening strategies to solve their listening difficulties. By doing this, they could improve their listening comprehension. Further research is recommended in order to review papers that dealt with the strategies of other skills i.e. reading strategies and speaking strategies since they are under researched.

Izhodišča: Duktalni adenokarcinom trebušne slinavke (PDAC) je ena najbolj smrtonosnih rakavih bolezni. V naši raziskavi smo želeli ovrednotiti povezavo zunajceličnih veziklov (ZV) iz krvne plazme s celokupnim preživetjem bolnikov s PDAC, ki so bili kirurško obravnavani.
Metode: V retrospektivno raziskavo smo vključili 32 preiskovancev s postavljeno diagnozo PDAC, ki so bili kirurško obravnavani na KO za abdominalno kirurgijo UKC Ljubljana. Za vsakega preiskovanca smo pridobili klinične podatke, laboratorijske izvide, histopatološko analizo in vzorec krvne plazme. ZV smo osamili iz plazme preiskovancev in določili njihovo koncentracijo in velikost.
Rezultati: Preiskovance smo glede na tip kirurške obravnave razdelili na skupino z opravljeno resekcijo tumorja in skupino z opravljeno eksploracijo brez resekcije. Pokazali smo, da so ZV v krvni plazmi bolnikov z eksploracijo značilno večji od ZV bolnikov z resekcijo (p < 0,05). Z analize ROC smo določili mejne vrednosti velikosti ZV, ki so ločile preiskovance glede na tip kirurške obravnave. Pri mejni vrednosti 183,3 nm za povprečno velikost ZV je za napoved resekcije občutljivost 0,591 in specifičnost 0,900 s površino pod krivuljo 0,77 (95 % CI = 0,60–0.93, p = 0,016). Preiskovanci z večjimi ZV so imeli slabše celokupno preživetje (p < 0,05), pri čemer je bilo preživetje preiskovancev s povprečno velikostjo ali mediano velikosti ZV večje od mejne vrednosti za 13,8 mesecev slabše (p < 0,05).
Zaključek: V sklopu raziskave smo pokazali povezavo med velikostjo ZV in celokupnim preživetjem bolnikov s PDAC, ki so bili kirurško obravnavani. S tem smo pokazali potencial ZV kot dodatnih bioloških označevalcev za personalizirani pristop k zdravljenju bolnikov s PDAC.

Published: October 2022

Beekeeping is an agricultural activity that was more or less developed and practiced in different ways in the different regions of Togo. In recent years, in certain regions of the country, such as the plateau region, we have noticed a special consideration of the populations for beekeeping, which they practice as a subsistence activity. It is with the aim of seeing if a beekeeper can live exclusively from this activity that the study was carried out. This work has to evaluate the economic contribution of the beekeeping activity in the life of the producers of the region of the plateaus of Togo.
To achieve this objective, socio-economic surveys were carried out on the basis of a semi-structured questionnaire via individual interviews. The questionnaire took into account: the profile of the beekeeper, annual investments, number and type of hive used, harvested products, the quantity obtained per hive and per year, selling price.
The results obtained on the sale of honey and wax, showed that the beekeeping activity would be economically profitable. For the evaluation of profitability, the cost/revenue method was used. Production costs relate to materials and various expenses incurred. Gross receipts were estimated from cash flows from the sale of hive products. After investigation of the turnover, the profits are calculated by difference between income and expenditure for each product harvested for the year 2019. In short, the activity allows an average annual profit of 766.600 FCFA for beekeepers harvesting only honey and 829.000 FCFA for those harvesting both honey and beeswax, for an average number of 33 hives per producer.
This study has shown that a serious beekeeper who is well organized and has at least thirty hives can normally make a good living from this beekeeping activity.

Published: October 2022

AbstractThis study investigates the type and transformation of spatial composition in Craig Ellwood's residential buildings and focuses on the material and modular systems. Herein, 28 works and structures, primary exterior finishing materials, primary interior finishing materials, and modular systems on both plan and section are analyzed. This analysis derived the following points: when standardization of construction paved the way for uniform spaces in the 1950s, Ellwood countered this trend by spatially arranging the materials with texture in one modular system and controlling them with the exposed beams. Through this approach, he created an architecture that gave rhythm to the space. In the 1960s, Ellwood used various column spans, defining the appearance of buildings by exposing beams and columns on the outside and creating compositions that gave rhythm to the outside.

Published: October 2022

AbstractFresh water scarcity is increasingly affecting urban landscapes, and the best strategy for sustaining the turfgrass industry would be to create, select, and use drought‐resistant genotypes. Bermudagrasses (Cynodon spp.) have different mechanisms to survive drought stress either by growing long roots, stomatal regulation, or accumulating biochemical solutes in the leaf. The drought response of 10 bermudagrasses was evaluated under two environments: (a) unrestricted root zone in the field and (b) restricted 17‐cm root zone in a greenhouse. Each study consisted of four commercially available (‘Latitude 36’, ‘Tifway’, ‘TifTuf’, and ‘Celebration’) and six experimental genotypes (OSU1337, OSU1403, OSU1439, TifB16101, TifB16113, and TifB16120). In the field study, all the genotypes survived the 60‐ and 49‐d dry‐down periods in 2017 and 2018, respectively, without completely browning off. Results showed a range of drought performance among genotypes, with TifTuf and Latitude 36 being the best‐ and worst‐performing industry standards, respectively. TifB16101, TifB16120, and TifB16113 were consistently the top performers with a leaf firing (LF) and turf quality (TQ) above 6, lower canopy temperature (CT), and greater normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) values in the field. However, when grown in 17‐cm pots, TifTuf, TifB16113, and TifB16120 demonstrated a TQ below 6 within 6 and 9 days of drought (DOD) in 2019 and 2020, respectively. The discrepancy between studies suggests that these genotypes may have the ability to extract water from deeper soil profiles when root zones are unrestricted. Furthermore, these findings reinforce the importance of soil depth in maintaining turfgrasses without supplemental irrigation.

AimDuring the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, the number of traffic accidents and injured patients was reported to be lower than that before the pandemic. However, little is known regarding the relationship between periods of the state of emergency and the number of patients who met with traffic accidents.MethodsThe numbers of trauma patients and deaths due to traffic accidents in Tokyo and Osaka were collected monthly from the statistics published by the police department. A state of emergency was declared four times in both cities. The number of trauma patients and deaths was compared between the emergency and other periods.ResultsThe number of monthly patients per 100,000 due to traffic accidents during the state of emergency was significantly lower than that during other periods in Tokyo (16.56 versus 18.20; P = 0.008) and Osaka (24.12 versus 28.79; P = 0.002). However, the monthly number of deaths during the state of emergency was not significantly different compared with those during the other periods in Tokyo (0.08 versus 0.08; P = 0.65) and Osaka (0.10 versus 0.14; P = 0.082). A decrease in the number of trauma patients was observed before the emergency period; however, the reduction rate dropped as the period passed.ConclusionThere were significantly fewer trauma patients due to traffic accidents during the state of emergency than during the other periods, with no significant difference in the number of deaths.

ObjectiveThe glymphatic system cleans amyloid and tau proteins from the brain in animal studies of Alzheimer disease (AD). However, there is no direct evidence showing this in humans.MethodsParticipants (n = 50, 62.6 ± 5.4 years old, 36 women) with AD and normal controls underwent amyloid positron emission tomography (PET), tau PET, structural T1‐weighted magnetic resonance imaging, and neuropsychological evaluation. Whole‐brain glymphatic activity was measured by diffusion tensor image analysis along the perivascular space (DTI‐ALPS).ResultsALPS‐indexes showed negative correlations with deposition of amyloid and tau on PET images and positive correlations with cognitive scores even after adjusting for age, sex, years of education, andAPOE4genotype covariates in multiple AD‐related brain regions (allp < 0.05). Mediation analysis showed that ALPS‐index acted as a significant mediator between regional standardized uptake value ratios of amyloid and tau images and cognitive dysfunction even after correcting for multiple covariates in AD‐related brain regions. These regions are responsible for attention, memory, and executive function, which are vulnerable to sleep deprivation.InterpretationGlymphatic system activity may act as a significant mediator in AD‐related cognitive dysfunction even after adjusting for multiple covariates and gray matter volumes. ALPS‐index may provide useful disease progression or treatment biomarkers for patients with AD as an indicator of modulation of glymphatic activity. ANN NEUROL 2023;93:164–174
Influence of drawing and annealing on the structure and properties of bio‐based polyamide 56 fibers

Published: October 2022

AbstractThe influences of drawing and annealing parameters on the structure and mechanical properties of melt spinning polyamide 56 (PA56) fibers were investigated and discussed in details. The as‐spun PA56 fibers have the relatively low crystallinity and rather low orientation. The crystalline phase in as‐spun PA56 fibers is mainly in γ phase. PA56 α‐like crystalline phase develops from the amorphous phase with the increase in chain orientation upon drawing of the as‐spun PA56 fibers. The crystallinity of PA56 fiber increases with rising draw ratio, which accompanies the increase in thickness of the crystalline lamella. The increase in draw ratio leads to the increase in tensile strength and the decrease in elongation at break of the resultant fibers. Tension annealing of the full‐drawn PA56 fibers at specific temperatures has obvious influences on the structure and properties of the fibers. The crystallinity and orientation increase with rising annealing temperature in the range of 150–210°C, during which the content of PA56 α‐like phase increases with the rising annealing temperature. Annealed the fibers at 230°C results in the increase in the content of PA56 γ phase with a tremendous decrease in the content of α‐like phase due to Brill transition. The optimum annealing temperature is around 170°C, at which the tenacity of the PA56 fibers is the highest. These results can provide valuable information for the production of PA56 fibers.

Published: October 2022

AbstractLiquified carbon dioxide (CO2) can be used in hydraulic fracturing fluids to provide nonaqueous alternatives to conventional water‐based fluids as it is more environmentally benign and minimizing depletion of natural‐source freshwater. However, conventional CO2‐based fluids are not sufficiently viscous to suspend proppants that are added to fracturing fluids to hold open subterranean fractures. Because of this reduced ability to suspend proppants, CO2‐based fluids have not found its niche yet as future fracturing fluids. Accordingly, a need exists for nonaqueous hydraulic fracturing fluids that adequately support and suspend proppant particles. The present study presents a green alternative of developing a poly(ethylene glycol) based polymers coated proppants which can swell in supercritical CO2 so as to decrease the entire density of the proppant during fracturing process.

AbstractTo overcome the poor conductivity of electrode film in bio‐gel electroactive actuator, graphene was introduced into its structure to prepare a kind of bio‐gel electroactive actuator based on chitosan, and its actuation characteristics were analyzed. First of all, the output characteristics of the electroactive actuator prepared with the addition of graphene oxide （GO）were tested to obtain the variation patterns of bending force and displacement. Second, electrochemical and microscopic tests were carried out and the water retention rate was analyzed to explore the internal reasons for the improvement of output characteristics. Third, how the mass fraction of GO influences the polymer electroactive actuator's bending force performance was comprehensively analyzed. The results show that adding GO significantly improved the electroactive actuator's performance. Adding graphene oxide into the polymer actuator was proved to be an effective strategy to improve the actuator's actuation properties.
