Abstract
In this study, the ultimate tensile strength (UTS), elongation (ELG) and tensile modulus (TEM) of a recycled low-density polyethylene groundnut shell fiber composite (r-LDPE/GSF) were modeled and simulated when considered particle size (PS) and fiber content (FC) of groundnut shell fiber (GSF) by applying response surface techniques (RSM) for structural application. The deposit of recycled low-density polyethylene (r-LDPE) and GSF, an agro-waste, were combined in the production of r-LDPE/GSF composite at PS of 50–70 mesh (300–212 µm) and FC of 10–30 wt% of the GSF. The manufactured r-LDPE/GSF composite was tested for UTS, ELG and TEM and optimized by considering these process variables of GSF, PS and FC with RSM. The outcome indicated that at optimum condition, the UTS, ELG and TEM were 8.5072 MPa, 12.83% and 0.94007 GPa, respectively. The parameters at this point were PS and FC of 60.48 mesh (250 µm) and 30 wt%, respectively. The coefficient of determination (R
2) was close to 0.99. The percentage of relative errors between raw experimental reading and the RSM was <0.16. Based on the result of the work, the predicted RSM data on tensile properties of r-LDPE/GSF composite shows that is a potential engineering material for structural application.

Desa Jawisari, yang merupakan salah satu desa diantara 16 desa yang berada di wilayah Kecamatan Limbangan Kabupaten Kendal, merupakan sentra penghasil gula aren tradisional. Namun, jumlah pengrajin yang cukup banyak ini ternyata belum mampu membawa gula aren menjadi salah satu komoditas utama Kabupaten Kendal karena sistem pengelolannya yang masih sangat tradisional. Kesalahan dalam proses pemanasan menyebabkan rendahnya kualitas gula aren yang dihasilkan, dimana intensitas warna yang tidak konsisten dan seringkali bahkan terlalu gelap. Selain itu, bentuk gula juga tidak rapi dengan ukuran yang tidak seragam. Oleh karena itu, dalam kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat masyarakat ini akan dilakukan perbaikan proses pemanasan. Namun demikian, kegiatan pengabdian ini tidak hanya fokus pada perbaikan proses pemanasan nira saja, tetapi juga dilengkapi dengan penyuluhan dan pelatihan teknik penyadapan serta penyimpanan nira serta teknik pengemasan dan pemasaran. Kegiatan ini akan dilakukan secara sinergi antara mitra, Universitas Negeri Semarang selaku lembaga akademisi serta Pemerintah Daerah Kabupaten Kendal melalui Dinas Perindustrian, Koperasi, Usaha Kecil dan Menengah. Hal ini mengingat peran Pemerintah Daerah sebagai fasilitator terhadap keberlangsungan program ini sangat diperlukan, terutama untuk pemasaran gula aren. Harapannya, gula aren dapat menjadi salah satu produk unggulan Kabupaten Kendal, jika kualitasnya dapat ditingkatkan melalui kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini.

Desa Sejaro Sakti terletak di Kecamatan Indralaya ibukota kabupaten Ogan Ilir Sumatera Selatan. Potensi peternakan sangat besar dengan jumlah ternak sapi yang banyak dan ladang penggembalaan yang cukup luas. Salah satu jenis limbah yang dihasilkan berupa urin sapi. Limbah cair tersebut belum dimanfaatkan dengan baik. Sebagai bahan yang mengandung unsur karbon dan nitrogen (C dan N), urin sapi dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai media pembuatan bioinsektisida berbasis bakteri entomopatogen, Bacillus thuringiensis. Dalam aplikasinya, urin sapi diperkaya dengan penambahan 5% molase. Hasil penelitian sebelumnya menghasilkan data tentang kandungan spora dan protein bakteri B. thuringiensis yang dapat mematikan serangga hama. Pada umumnya bioinsektisida berbasis B. thuringiensis digunakan untuk mengendalikan serangga hama namun aman bagi musuh alami. Tujuan kegiatan pengabdian ini untuk memperkenalkan cara membuat bioinsektisida berbasis B. thuringiensis dengan bahan dasar limbah urin sapi. Sasaran kegiatan ini adalah kelompok tani di Desa Sejaro Sakti. Kegiatan diadakan mulai buan September-November 2019. Metode kegiatan berupa penyuluhan dan sosialisasi tentang potensi desa, arti penting dan manfaat limbah urin sapi, serta demonstrasi pembuatan bioinsektisida. Hasil kegiatan pengabdian menunjukkan bahwa petani sangat antusias mendapatkan pengetahuan dan ketrampilan tentang pembuatan bioinsektisida berbasis B. thuringiensis. Sebagian besar petani peserta kegiatan paham tentang cara pembuatan bioinsektisida. Mereka menyatakan bahwa pembuatan bioinsektisida tersebut merupakan hal baru dan mereka berminat untuk mempraktekkannya. Telah disadari bahwa selama ini pengendalian serangga hama biasanya dilakukan dengan menggunakan insektisida kimia. Oleh karena itu, untuk mengurangi biayaa pengendalian, mereka akan menerapkannya dalam usaha pengendalian hama di lahan pertanian. Hasil uji coba yang dilakukan di lahan terbatas menunjukkan bahwa lahan yang menggunakan bioinsektisida B. thuringiensis menunjukkan pertumbuhan tanaman yang lebih baik dibandingkan dengan tanpa perlakuan.

OBJECTIVE
To test the hypothesis that an Apgar score at 10 minutes is independently predictive for death or moderate or severe disability.

METHODS
A secondary analysis of the Optimizing Cooling Trial (NCT01192776) including 347 infants with ≥36 weeks’ gestational age at birth and hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy and 18- to 22-month outcomes from 18 US centers in the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Neonatal Research Network. The primary outcome was the composite of death or moderate/severe disability at 18 to 22 months of age. Generalized estimating equation models were used to examine the relationship between Apgar scores and outcomes, controlling for center, hypothermia treatment, and severity of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Classification and regression tree analyses were conducted to identify combinations of variables available during resuscitation that were most predictive for the composite outcome and death.

RESULTS
The study revealed that 50% (13 of 26) of infants with a 10-minute Apgar score of 0 survived; 46% (6 of 13) had no disability, 16% (2 of 13) had mild disability, and 38% (5 of 13) had moderate or severe disability. The 10-minute Apgar score of 0 was independently associated with death or moderate or severe disability (adjusted relative risk = 1.72, 95% confidence interval 1.11–2.68, P value = .016), but the area under the curve analysis (AUC) was low (AUC = 0.56). The predictive accuracy improved when the 10-minute Apgar score was combined with other risk variables available during resuscitation by using a classification and regression tree analysis (AUC = 0.66).

CONCLUSIONS
A 10-minute Apgar score of 0 alone does not predict the risk of death or moderate or severe disability well. The current study provides evidence in support of the 2020 American Heart Association/International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation recommendation for continuing resuscitative efforts for infants who need cardiopulmonary resuscitation at 10 minutes after birth.
A Fotografia como Emulação dos Fatos
Authors: Klein Alberto , Dias Emerson 
Published: March 2022

Este artigo tem como objetivo tratar a fotografia como um mecanismo de emulação no processo de construção da notícia, capaz de inserir-se nas relações socioeconômicas e apresentar-se na História como “outro real”. A emulação impõe um conflito aparente com o referente da imagem e atua – concomitantemente – como igual, similar e rival dos acontecimentos do mundo. A partir de dois exemplos da fotografia institucional – as imagens das instalações da hidrelétrica de Itaipu e a imagem da cúpula da Casa Branca assistindo às ações de captura e morte de Osama Bin Laden – o conceito de emulação é proposto em tensionamento com a noção de simulacro do pensador Jean Baudrillard, valendo-se das contribuições de autores como Vilém Flusser e Norval Baitello Júnior para entender as relações e interferências das imagens-êmulos junto às relações sociais e culturais.

La cárcel es mucho más que una estructura, la cárcel es un espacio social que se nutre de hechos y eventos que acaecen dentro y fuera de ella.
En este sentido, más que una pequeña sociedad dentro de otra con dinámicas y preceptos propios —como lo plantea Sykes—, la cárcel conviene pensarla—siguiendo a Darío Melossi—, como la radicalización de lo externo, como la sobre presurización de la sociedad durkhemiana, donde los mismos preceptos y valores que allí operan, son reconceptualizados por medio de un relativismo cultural que genera así un campus sui géneris, donde diversos capitales sociales (pero sobre todo el capital delictivo, que podemos definir como el acervo de conductas valoradas dentro de la subcultura carcelaria), entran en disputa por la prominencia y la jerarquía a nivel de pares. Valiéndonos de las esferas de Sloterdijk, la prisión sería entonces una burbuja más de la espuma (sociedad), pero una burbuja expuesta a mayor presión.

El presente trabajo estudió la relación entre la violencia filio-parental con el consumo de sustancias psicoactivas, la comisión de delitos y la violencia intrafamiliar en un grupo de jóvenes vinculados al sistema de responsabilidad penal para adolescentes en Colombia. Desde un enfoque cuantitativo se implementó un diseño no experimental de tipo transversal correlacional, con una muestra aleatoria simple de 461 jóvenes a quienes se les aplicó un cuestionario de la Escala Táctica de Conflictos Revisada. Los resultados señalan que, los adolescentes y jóvenes infractores tienen mayor probabilidad de perpetrar agresiones hacia alguno de sus progenitores cuando han vivenciado algún tipo de violencia en la familia. Se puede concluir que la violenciafilio-parental es un fenómeno que requiere ser reconocido y estudiado con mayor profundidad en la población colombiana para su prevención y abordaje oportuno.

Published: March 2022

Potential induced degradation (PID) is a defect that has a severe effect on the performance of photovoltaic (PV) modules in field conditions. It is caused by leakage currents and the accumulation of sodium ions (Na+) between the anti-reflective coating and the encapsulation. In the experiment reported on here, PID was artificially induced through a PID stress test, where the surface of a poly-crystalline p‑type module was covered with an aluminium sheet connected to the positive terminal of a high voltage power supply (1000 V), while the short-circuited module terminals was biased to the negative terminal. This stress test was applied to two similar poly-crystalline p‑type modules, A and B, for 48 hours and 20 hours respectively. The duration of the stress test determines the degree of PID severity induced. The length of the test resulted in Module A’s power decreasing by 88% and Module B’s by 40%. Electroluminescence and current-voltage measurements were taken at regular intervals over a period of more than a year to monitor the natural recovery of the modules. These measurements show that the natural recovery of severe PID modules is possible, but slow. After the test period, the maximum power of Module A and Module B had recovered to 63% and 96% of the original level. PID experienced in the field is generally less severe than for the modules in this study, so PID recovery could be achieved by adopting a process of setting affected strings at open-circuit in turns.

A crescente demanda por informações sobre a dinâmica de uso das terras e da atividade agrícola na Amazônia, exige um esforço para que novos estudos sejam realizados. Este trabalho teve por objetivo propor uma metodologia para o mapeamento de pequenos cultivos de cacau, bem como discutir as relações espaciais dos mesmos no contexto do município de Tomé-Açu, Estado do Pará. Para isso, foi construída uma base de dados na plataforma QGIS, destinada à manipulação e à análise de dados georreferenciados. O mapeamento dos cultivos de cacau considerou mosaico de imagens PlanetScope, bandas 1, 2 e 3, ano de 2017, com resolução espacial de 3 m. As imagens foram classificadas por análise visual preliminar, considerando padrões espaciais e espectrais. O produto obtido foi refinado posteriormente a partir de mapeamentos participativos com atores locais. Verificou-se que as áreas com cacau se concentram em propriedades de até 50 ha, valor este relativo ao módulo fiscal definido para a área de estudo. Foram registrados quase 4 mil hectares de cultivos de cacau no ano de 2017. Os plantios de cacau estão concentrados próximos à malha viária, em áreas agrícolas consolidadas, distantes das frentes pioneiras de expansão agrícola.

BACKGROUND: Nephrotoxicity of Gentamicin (GM), an important aminoglycoside, is still a serious issue in clinical use. Therefore, natural products are currently being used as an alternate source of medicinal substances by researchers all over the world for new medication molecules. Eruca sativa shows several health benefits that appear to be associated with the content of flavonoids. Therefore, the objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of E. sativa seed extract (ESE) and its active flavenol rutin (RUT) in GM-induced nephrotoxicity in adult male rats. METHODS: The animals were divided into 10 groups: a control group, a groups administered 150 mg/kg body weight (BW) of ESE, a group administered 300 mg/kg BW of ESE, a group administered with 50 mg/kg BW of RUT, a group administered with 100 mg/kg BW of RUT, a GM-nephrotoxic group, and four GM-nephrotoxic groups treated with the same doses of ESE and RUT as previous groups. The treatments were given orally for 4 weeks. Following the treatments animals in all groups were sacrificed. The blood samples were drawn, and the kidney tissue samples were collected for further analysis.RESULTS: ESE alleviated the nephrotoxic effects of GM as it decreased the serum levels of creatinine, urea, Na+, K+, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF- α), and interleukin-1β (IL-1β). Moreover, ESE was linked with kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) and Cystatin C mRNA downregulation. Although treatment with pure RUT induced the same modulation of ESE in GM- nephrotoxic rats, pure RUT was more effective than ESE in the modulation of oxidative kidney injury.CONCLUSION: The present study revealed the health-promoting effects of ESE or RUT in the attenuation of GM-induced nephrotoxicity.KEYWORDS: nephrotoxicity, gentamicin, Eruca sativa, rutin, inflammation, KIM-1/cystatin C expression
What to Target in Cognitive Behavioral Treatment for Gambling Disorder - A Qualitative Study of Clinically Relevant Behaviors

Published: March 2022

Abstract
BackgroundFrom a clinical perspective, knowledge of the psychological processes involved in maintaining gambling disorder has been lacking. This qualitative study formulated hypotheses on how gambling disorder is maintained by identifying clinically relevant behaviors at an individual level, as a means to guide the development of new cognitive behavioral interventions.MethodsSix individuals from a treatment study, diagnosed with gambling disorder and with diverse symptom profiles of psychiatric comorbidity, were recruited. Participants were interviewed using an in-depth semi-structured functional interview and completed self-report measures assessing gambling behavior. ResultsFunctional analysis was used as a theoretical framework for a thematic analysis, which yielded the following categories: 1) antecedents that may increase or decrease gambling; 2) experiences accompanying gambling; 3) control strategies; 4) consequences of gambling behavior; and 5) events terminating gambling behavior. Few differences were identified in relation to symptom profiles of psychiatric comorbidity, although some gamblers did not report experiencing abstinence when not being able to gamble.ConclusionsGambling is a secluded activity mainly triggered by access to money. Positive and negative emotions could be both antecedents and functions of gambling behavior. Avoidance-based strategies used to control gambling might result in a failure to learn to control gambling behavior. Anticipation, selective attention, and chasing could be important reinforcers, which should be addressed in new developments in cognitive behavioral treatment for gambling disorder.

Abstract
Schools as social bases and children’s centers are among the most vulnerable areas to flooding. Flood risk mapping (FRM) is very important for flood preparedness and adopting preventive plans for reducing the school vulnerability to flooding. To achieve this, there is a need for the models that can be used in vast areas with high predictive accuracy. This study aims to develop the innovative hybrid models by coupling the support vector regression (SVR), statistical approaches, and two meta-heuristic algorithms, whale optimization algorithms (WOA) as well as grey wolf optimizer (GWO). According to the proposed methodology, a hybrid feature of SVR and frequency ratio (FR-SVR) is optimized by applying the GWO and WOA optimization algorithms to generate the maps related to flood susceptibility (FSMs). The method was utilized for the Ardabil Province located in southwestern Caspian Sea precincts of which faced devastating floods. The GIS database including 147 ground control locations of flooded zones and nine factors which influence flood were utilized to learn and ascertain the validity of the models. The statistical measures of RMSE, MAE, AUC, and ROC curve were then applied for the developed models in order to estimate prophetically. The results indicated that the meta-optimized FR-SVR-GWO as well as FR-SVR-WOA models exceeded the FR-SVR and FR models in training (RMSEFR-SVR-WOA = 0.2016, RMSEFR-SVR-GWO = 0.1885, AUCFR-SVR-WOA = 0.87, AUCFR-SVR-GWO = 0.88) and validation (RMSEFR-SVR-WOA = 0.2025, RMSEFR-SVR-GWO = 0.1986, AUCFR-SVR-WOA = 0.87, AUCFR-SVR-GWO = 0.87) phases. The FR-SVR-WOA and FR-SVR-GWO models were very competitive regarding AUC and RMSE values, but the FR-SVR-WOA model reproduced greater flood susceptibility rates and was considered for school flood risk mapping (SFRM).
