Published: June 2022

Studies have shown that meta-cognitive thinking skill is teachable and it is central to other skills such as problem-solving, decision making, critical thinking, and invaluable contribution to the learners’ competencies and achievements. The study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Meta-Cognitive Strategies on Achievement in Creative Writing in primary schools. A sample of 62 pupils was selected for the study. The data were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, and mean difference. Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) was used to test the hypotheses formulated at a 0.05 level of significance. The results indicated that achievement in creative writing significantly differed as a result of teaching pupils with metacognitive strategies and traditional methods. It was recommended that metacognitive strategies should be incorporated as a teaching strategy during creative writing instructions in schools. Teachers should also be supported by giving them training that will facilitate effective lesson delivery using metacognitive strategies.

Indonesia As a plural nation that has various nuances of pluralism which is manifested in ethnic groups with unique backgrounds of regional languages, traditions, customs, arts, culture, and religions respectively. So educational inclusiveness is important to be developed in every religious education institution, especially Islam, it must even be a priority goal that must be achieved. Pesantren has a very important role, apart from being a place to learn Islamic religious knowledge, it is also a place to foster mental and moral character. One of them is fostering the value of religious tolerance carried out by Kyai at the Bakti Luhur Islamic Boarding School, Malang Regency. The fostering of religious tolerance values ​​is carried out because of the emergence of various conflicts in Indonesia that originate from problems between religious communities. For this reason, fostering the value of religious tolerance is carried out at the Bakti Luhur Islamic Boarding School with the aim of educating and fostering the mental and morals of the students to become individuals who have good morals and have a tolerant attitude towards differences in people's lives, especially religious differences. The establishment of the Bakti Luhur Islamic Boarding School since 2006 did not necessarily run smoothly, because there were several groups who did not agree with the pesantren system. Because it is considered too liberal, violates the teachings of Islam and even some people disbelieve in the business.

Orthography refers to the description of the sounds of language used by humans in the form of writing or symbols. The difference and diversity of readings of the Qur'an that exist in society is the impact of orthography that triggers the emergence of efforts to classify qiraat and qurra' from each community. The orthography and unification of the Qur'an are important to discuss so that the readings in the Qur'an that are currently circulating are not in doubt about their authenticity. This study uses the book Reconstruction of the History of the Qur'an by Taufik Adnan Amal as the basis. It will also discuss further the development of orthography and unification, especially in the early days of orthography and unification.
ABSTRAK
Ortografi merujuk pada gambaran bunyi bahasa yang digunakan oleh manusia dalam bentuk tulisan atau lambang. Perbedaan serta keragaman bacaan al-Qur’an yang ada pada masyarakat adalah dampak dari ortografi yang memicu munculnya usaha pengklasifikasian qiraat dan qurra’ dari masing-masing masyarakat. Ortografi dan unifikasi al-Qur’an penting untuk dibahas supaya bacaan dalam al-Qura’an yang beredar sekarang tidak diragukan keauntentikasinya. Penelitian ini menggunakan buku Rekonstruksi Sejarah Al-Qur’an karya Taufik Adnan Amal sebagai landasannya. Serta didalamnya akan dibahas lebih lanjut mengenai perkembangan ortografi dan unifikasi terutama pada masa awal adanya ortografi dan unifikasi.

Published: June 2022

Abstract
Co-occurrence networks inferred from the abundance data of microbial communities are widely applied to predict microbial interactions. However, the high workloads of bacterial isolation and the complexity of the networks themselves constrained experimental demonstrations of the predicted microbial associations and interactions. Here, we integrate droplet microfluidics and bar-coding logistics for high-throughput bacterial isolation and cultivation from environmental samples, and experimentally investigate the relationships between taxon pairs inferred from microbial co-occurrence networks. We collected Potamogeton perfoliatus plants (including roots) and associated sediments from Beijing Olympic Park (BOP) wetland. Droplets of series diluted homogenates of wetland samples were inoculated into 126 96-well plates containing R2A and TSB media. After 10 days of cultivation, 65 plates with > 30% wells showed microbial growth were selected for the inference of microbial co-occurrence networks. We cultivated 129 bacterial isolates belonging to 15 species that could represent the zero-level OTUs (Zotus) in the inferred co-occurrence networks. The co-cultivations of bacterial isolates corresponding to the prevalent Zotus pairs in networks were performed on agar plates and in broth. Results suggested that positively associated Zotu pairs in the co-occurrence network implied complicated relations including neutralism, competition, and mutualism, depending on bacterial isolate combination and cultivation time.
Air circulation study inside and outside of urban bus induced by the opening of windows.
Authors: Corzo Santiago Francisco , Godino Dario Martin , Ramajo Damian Enrique 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
In this work the external and internal airflow analysis in an urban bus is carried out through computational fluid dynamics. The research addresses the study of the internal flow to estimate the air change rate caused by the opening of windows. Two cases are considered: fully opening and partially opening the windows, and three bus speeds of 20, 40 and 60 km/h are assessed. The quantification of the air flow rate through the windows clearly displays that air enters through the rear windows and exits the bus through the front windows. This effect is explained by the pressure distribution in the outer of the bus, which causes the suction of the indoor air. At low bus speed, the incoming air flow rate increases linearly with the speed, but the improvement is lower for high speeds. The theoretical air change time at 20 km/h is around 25.7 s, which is 9 times lower than the expected by using HVAC systems. On the other hand, the estimation of the real air renewal time by solving a concentration shows that 40 s are needed to exchange 85% of the internal air of the bus. Results are conclusive to recommend the circulation with fully or partial windows opening configurations in order to reduce the risk of airborne disease transmission.

Published: June 2022

Abstract
Background
Androgen receptor variant 7 (AR-V7) is an important biomarker to guide treatment options for castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients. Its detectability in circulating tumour cells (CTCs) opens non-invasive diagnostic avenues. While detectable at the transcript level, AR-V7 protein detection in CTCs may add additional information and clinical relevance.
Aims
The aim of this study was to compare commercially available anti-AR-V7 antibodies and establish reliable AR-V7 immunocytostaining applicable to CTCs from prostate cancer (PCa) patients.
Methods
We compared seven AR-V7 antibodies by western blotting and immmunocytostaining using a set of PCa cell lines with known AR/AR-V7 status. The emerging best antibody was validated for detection of CRPC patient CTCs enriched by negative depletion of leucocytes.
Results
The anti-AR-V7 antibody, clone E308L emerged as the best antibody in regard to signal to noise ratio with a specific nuclear signal. Moreover, this antibody detects CRPC CTCs more efficiently compared to an antibody previously shown to detect AR-V7 CTCs.
Conclusion
We have determined the best antibody for AR-V7 detection of CTCs, which will open future studies to correlate AR-V7 subcellular localisation and potential co-localisation with other proteins and cellular structures to patient outcomes.

Published: June 2022

Abstract
Under the background of global climate change, flooding is causing devastating impacts on the balance of the regional water resources system. The campuses are typical built-up areas with high building density and are also disturbed by waterlogging. How to transform the campus rainwater system into sponge city reconstruction is the key problem to be solved. Based on the MIKE FLOOD platform, the urban waterlogging model is established, the causes of waterlogging are analyzed in this study. Low impact development (LID) measures are added according to the current situation. The carbon emission reduction capacity and economic benefit of each scenario are calculated and evaluated. The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is used to comprehensively evaluate the LID combination scenario to further explore a reasonable solution to mitigate urban waterlogging. The results show that the current rainwater pipe network built has a small pressure load on the campus, which cannot well respond to heavy rainfall conditions, resulting in a high risk of waterlogging in the campus. After setting up LID measures, the runoff control rate can be increased by 26.15-42.84%, and the waterlogging area above 15cm can be reduced by 72.87-100%. If the energy conservation and emission reduction benefits and costs are considered at the same time, the layout scenario of 9% bioretention facility +3% green roof+3% permeable pavement can achieve the best benefits. The research can provide a reference for planning and reconstruction of ‘sponge campus’ and old residential areas.
