Multiplicity and concentration of semi-classical solutions to nonlinear Dirac-Klein-Gordon systems
Authors: Ding Yanheng , Yu Yuanyang , Dong Xiaojing 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
In the present article, we study multiplicity of semi-classical solutions of a Yukawa-coupled massive Dirac-Klein-Gordon system with the general nonlinear self-coupling, which is either subcritical or critical growth. The number of solutions obtained is described by the ratio of maximum and behavior at infinity of the potentials. We use the variational method that relies upon a delicate cutting off technique. It allows us to overcome the lack of convexity of the nonlinearities.

Published: July 2022

Abstract
In this paper, we construct a new generalized result to study the existence of solutions of nonlinear fractional boundary value problems (FBVPs). The proposed results unify the existence criteria of certain FBVPs including periodic and antiperiodic as special cases that have been previously studied separately in the literature. The method we employ is topological in its nature and manifests themselves in the forms of differential inequalities (lower and upper solutions, and coupled lower and upper solutions (CLUSs)). Two examples are given to demonstrate the applicability of the developed theoretical results.
Personalized approach for complex bilateral calcaneal osteomyelitis and defect reconstruction with bilateral abductor digiti minimi flaps
Authors: Grigorescu Oana , Dragu Adrian , Bönke Florian , Schreiber Martin , Rammelt Stefan 
Published: July 2022

Abstract

Objectives
The best treatment for displaced, intra-articular fractures of the calcaneus remains controversial and it is generally agreed, that there is no single method that is suitable for all patients.

Case presentation
Here we report a rare case of bilateral calcaneal osteomyelitis with fistula formation following open reduction and plate fixation via an extensile lateral approach that could be salvaged with an interdisciplinary approach including orthopedic and plastic surgeons. We are not aware of a similar case in the literature. Abductor digit minimi flaps is a well-established procedure in plastic and reconstructive surgery with a minimal functional defect and morbidity at the donor site. This treatment protocol resulted in minimal donor-site morbidity and good bone remodeling in the further course. We believe that it may be of use for complicated courses even with limited resources.

Conclusions
Abductor digit minimi flaps is a well-established procedure in plastic and reconstructive surgery with a minimal functional defect and morbidity at the donor site.
Colors in the representation of biological structures
Authors: Zoppè Monica 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
Among the many properties of proteins, sugars, nucleic acids, membranes and other cellular components, color is not present. At the same time, we humans have a natural ability of recognizing and appreciating colors, and use them generously, with the aim of both delivering information and pleasing the eyes. In this article, I suggest how we can conciliate these two situations, with the contribution of biologists, artists, and computer graphics and perception experts. The concept can be developed in a series of initiatives involving the community, including discussion sessions, technical challenges, experimental studies and outreach activities.
Role of prophylactic HIPEC in non-metastatic, serosa-invasive gastric cancer: a literature review
Authors: Kunte Aditya R. , Parray Aamir M. , Bhandare Manish S. , Solanki Sohan Lal 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
The role of prophylactic hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (p-HIPEC) in serosa invasive gastric cancers without gross or microscopic peritoneal disease, to reduce the rate of peritoneal relapse is an area of ongoing research. Although p-HIPEC is effective in reducing the rate of peritoneal relapse and improving disease free and overall survival with or without adjuvant chemotherapy, when added to curative surgery in locally advanced, non-metastatic gastric cancers, the available literature is at best, heterogeneous, centre-specific and skewed. Apart from that, variations in the systemic therapy used, and the presence of the associated nodal disease further complicate this picture. To evaluate the role of p-HIPEC the PubMed, Cochrane central register of clinical trials, and the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) meeting library were searched with the search terms, “gastric”, “cancer”, “hyperthermic”, “intraperitoneal”, “chemotherapy”, prophylactic”, “HIPEC” in various combinations, and a critical review of the available evidence was done. Although p-HIPEC is a promising therapy in the management of locally advanced gastric cancers, the current evidence is insufficient to recommend its inclusion into routine clinical practice. Future research should be directed towards identification of the appropriate patient subset and towards redefining its role with current peri-operative systemic therapies.

Abstract
Biodiesel is a promising clean energy supply that can be made from sustainable and low-grade fuels using a variety of methods. Transesterification is one of the processes that can occur in the manifestation of an effective catalyst. The catalyst may be homogeneous or heterogeneous in nature. This article reviews on the formation of biodiesel from various sources of waste oils using heterogeneous nanocatalysts. The manufacture of biodiesel using homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis had been extensively studied, and new heterogeneous catalysts are constantly being examined. In general, homogeneous catalysts are effective at remodeling biodiesel with low free fatty acid (FFA) and single-origin feedstock having water. Heterogeneous catalysts, instead have higher interest, a wider scope of selectivity, better FFA, and better water adaptability. These properties are regulated by the number and intensity of active basic or acid sites. In order to achieve a viable alternative to conventional homogeneous catalysts for biodiesel processing, heterogeneous catalysts made from waste and biocatalysts are needed. Nanocatalysts have recently attracted interest due to their high catalytic performance under favorable operating conditions. This review evaluates the usage of heterogeneous nanocatalysts for the production of biodiesel from different sources of waste oil and the factors effecting the process of biodiesel production.
Juozas Gabrys and Lithuania at the League of Nations: Political Activity
Authors: Šipelytė Monika 
Published: July 2022

The political activity of Juozas Gabrys at the League of Nations in Geneva from 1927 to 1939 is the main subject of this article. He and his colleagues established Lithuanian Information Bureau here in the 1930s and worked as journalists. Gabrys also sought to gain a position as a Lithuanian diplomat and the best possibility for that was the post of an ambassador to the League of Nations in Geneva. He thought that his mission was to propagate Lithuanian interests in Western Europe, and the fact that he had started this activity before World War I, should have granted a good and prosperous life for himself as well. Unfortunately, good intentions not always were embodied in the fruitful results. As for the image of the Lithuanian activity in Geneva, not all of Gabrys’ actions succeeded in a positive way. Of course, at the surroundings of the League, Lithuania was seen and heard not only from Gabrys’ publications, but also from official Lithuanian information agencies and legislations. But maybe his irony and accusations worked as stimulator for other Lithuanian journalists and politicians? And maybe his true role at the scene of diplomacy was not to make the decisions, but to take into account every decision made and explain it to the society of Lithuania and Geneva.

Authors: Syafri Mohamad , Saude Saude 
Published: July 2022

ABSTRACTThe implementation of the Distance Learning policy in all schools in Indonesia due to the Covid-19 outbreak has affected the teaching process. This quantitative research elucidates how EFL teaching and learning cope with the procedure. Two aspects will be illuminated in this research; the first is how schools and teachers prepare for online-based distance learning. The second is how the learning process conducts during the distance learning policy. This research collected data from 167 participants, including vice principals, EFL teachers, IT operators, and students from senior high schools in Palu, Central Sulawesi Provinces. The data was analyzed following the Illuminative Evaluation model by Parlett and Hamilton. The results found that schools and teachers are more well-equipped and prepared than the students. However, some students still face difficulties due to the absence of facilities and geographical situation. In the learning process, more flexible policies in class are still implemented by teachers, especially for students with limited access and lack of affective aspects.

ABSTRACTThe present study analyzed the representations of the Five Core Values of character education recommended by the Indonesian Ministry of National Education in 2017 into a national English Textbook for 7th Grade, entitled When English Rings a Bell. The present study was qualitative research, which conducted the data classification, data display, and conclusion drawing concurrently and repeatedly, while the whole process is always compared with the data collection. The study revealed that the book investigated represents all five core values: religiosity, nationalism, independence, cooperation, and integrity. Religiosity and nationalism were the two values most cultivated in the textbook, while integrity is represented more infrequently, and cooperation value is sparsely presented. These findings imply that the imbalanced representation of the five core values in the textbook investigated could negatively affect the students’ character building. Thus, the present study recommends teachers use this textbook to design activities that call for cooperation and integrity values, so the students’ character building at school can be more balanced. ABSTRAKPenelitian ini mencermati representasi Lima Nilai Utama Pendidikan Karakter yang direkomendasikan Kementrian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan pada 2017 ke dalam buku teks Bahasa Inggris untuk Kelas VII berjudul When English Rings a Bell. Kajian ini dirancang sebagai penelitian kualitatif deskriptif, dimana kategorisasi data, pemaparan data, dan penarikan kesimpulan dilakukan bersamaan dan berulang, serta selalu dibandingkan dengan proses dan hasil pengumpulan data. Ditemukan bahwa buku teks yang dikaji mengandung representasi kelima nilai utama pendidikan karakter yang direkomendasikan kementrian: religius, nasionalis, mandiri, gotong royong, dan integritas. Nilai religius dan nasionalis adalah dua nilai yang paling sering dihadirkan, sementara intgritas dihadirkan cukup sering dan nilai gotong royong merupakan nilai yang paling jarang. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa ada ketidakseimbangan dalam representasi kelima nilai utama pendidikan karakter dalam buku teks yang dikaji, yang dapat berimplikasi negative pada pengembangan karakter anak. Untuk itu, penelitian ini menyarankan agar guru mengimbangkan ketimpangan pada buku teks ini dengan merancang kegiatan-kegiatan yang mengembangkan nilai gotong royong dan integritas sehingga usaha penguatan karakter siswa dapat berlangsung dengan lebih baik dalam pembelajaran di sekolah.
La importancia de la administración eficiente del ciclo operativo en las pymes de Santa Cruz y Carrillo
Authors: Bermúdez Carrillo Luis Alberto , Campos Campos Diego 
Published: July 2022

En el presente estudio se analiza la importancia de una eficiente administración del ciclo operativo por parte de las Pymes como estrategia para lograr la operatividad, competitividad y su permanencia en el tiempo. La gestión adecuada del ciclo de operación, le permite contar con la información suficiente para estimar y cubrir sus necesidades de efectivo, y los límites que tiene para gestionar las operaciones de crédito o de contado.
Para la realización de éste, se hizo en primera instancia una revisión bibliográfica para fundamentar teóricamente los elementos, tanto del ciclo operativo como del ciclo de conversión de efectivo. Posteriormente, se aplicó una encuesta que permitió argumentar la necesidad, el grado de conocimiento y aplicación del ciclo operativo y los datos que permiten conocer la cantidad de días en el que operan estas Pymes.
Como resultado se determinó que una cantidad considerable de las Pymes desconoce la gestión del ciclo operativo, por lo tanto, no incorporan esta información en la toma de decisiones. Respecto al manejo de los ciclos de cobro, pago e inventarios, los resultados encontrados, son contrarios a lo que se aplica en la buena práctica administrativa, y a lo que indica la teoría. Por otro lado, aunque están claros de la cantidad de días que emplean cobrando y pagando, no tienen capacitación que les permita darse cuenta, de cuáles son las implicaciones que tienen los ciclos actuales. Dicha aplicación se refiere al impacto financiero que tienen por el hecho de operar con desconocimiento y de manera empírica.
