Authors: KAYA Hatice , AYIK Batuhan 
Published: September 2022

Purpose: The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between thyroid hormone levels and positive, negative, general, and cognitive symptoms in euthyroid patients with psychosis.
Materials and Methods: Thirty-three schizophrenia patients were included in this cross-sectional study. Sociodemographic and clinical data of the participants, positive and negative symptoms assessment scale (PANSS), general assessment of functionality scale (GAF), and clinical global impression scale (CGI) scores were recorded. The relationships between TSH, fT3, and fT4 levels and cognitive performances of patients which is measured via a neurocognitive battery consisting of Trail Making Test (TMT) A, TMT B, verbal fluency test (VFT), digit span (DS), forward and backward, and Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) were investigated.
Results: Significant correlations were found between fT3 levels and WCST performances. fT3 levels was significantly correlated with the number of categories achieved in WCST (r=.508; p=0.003). A significant correlation was found between fT4 levels and TMT B (r=-.376; p=0.031) and VFT (p=.355; p=0.043) performances. In the linear regression model, it was found that fT3 levels significantly predicted the number of categories achieved in WCST (UB=1.680; p=0.029).
Conclusion: The results of our study suggested that fT3 has more significant effects, primarily on executive functions, compared to T4.

Machine Learning untuk Prediksi Produksi Gula Nasional
Authors: Jaelani Toniyah 
Published: September 2022

Gula merupakan salah satu bahan utama yang selalu dibutuhkan untuk membuat makanan atau minuman. Saat ini produksi gula belum mampu memenuhi kebutuhan gula nasional. Namun, pemerintah terus menambah jumlah pabrik dan meningkatkan produktivitas pabrik gula yang ada untuk memenuhi kebutuhan gula nasional. Di sisi lain, produksi gula juga berfluktuasi. Hal ini dapat mengakibatkan kelangkaan gula jika tidak diprediksi secara tepat dan akurat. Oleh karena itu, pada penelitian ini dilakukan perbandingan prediksi produksi gula Indonesia dengan menggunakan metode machine learning yaitu Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) dan juga dilakukan prediksi dengan menggunakan metode regresi linier. Penelitian ini dilakukan berdasarkan data sekunder yang bersumber dari hasil penelitian dan laporan dari instansi atau instansi terkait. Data yang digunakan adalah data nasional berupa time series selama 52 tahun yaitu dari tahun 1968 sampai dengan tahun 2020. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa error pada metode regresi linier adalah 8%. Hasil prediksi dengan machine learning menunjukkan error yang lebih kecil dibandingkan dengan metode regresi linier. Metode LSTM menghasilkan error data kereta sebesar 0,069% dan nilai error data pengujian sebesar 0,082%. Hasil peramalan dari regresi linier memiliki trend produksi yang meningkat namun pada metode LSTM hasilnya mengalami trend penurunan. Sugar is one of the main ingredients that are always needed to make food or drink. At this time sugar production has not been able to meet the national sugar demand. However, the government continues to increase the number of factories and increase the productivity of existing sugar factories to meet national sugar demand. On the other hand, sugar production also fluctuated. This can lead to a shortage of sugar if it is not predicted precisely and accurately. Therefore, in this study, a comparison of predictions of Indonesian sugar production was carried out using the machine learning method, namely Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) and predictions were also made using a linear regression method. This research was conducted based on secondary data sourced from research results and reports from related institutions or agencies. The data used is national data in the form of a time series for 52 years, namely from 1968 to 2020. The results of this study show that the error in the linear regression method is 8%. Prediction results with machine learning show a smaller error than the linear regression method. The LSTM method produces a train data error of 0.069% and a test data error value of 0.082%. Forecasting results from linear regression have an increasing trend in production but in the LSTM method the results experience a downward trend.
Формы воплощения христианской аксиологии в русской литературе второй половины ХХ века – начала XXI века
Authors: Kazantseva Irina 
Published: September 2022

В статье показано, что судьба христианской традиции в официальной и неподцензурной литературе России 60-80-х годов объясняет логику современного литературного процесса. Анализ эволюции жанра, метода и стиля прозы Леонида Бородина и Валентина Распутина – традиционалистов, в разных формах сохранявших христианскую направленность своих произведений на всех этапах творчества, – позволяет сделать выводы о преемственности православной традиции в русской литературе второй половины XX – начала XXI веков. Имманентные закономерности литературного процесса определили взаимосвязь между уровнями религиозной традиции и поэтикой произведений. Для неподцензурной литературы характерно преимущественное использование прямого публицистического слова; после 90-х годов публицистические жанры в соответствии со своей внутренней логикой становятся адекватной формой поддержания целостности общества, а художественные произведения продолжают имплицитно воплощать сакральные ценности. Для творчества Бородина характерно обращение к таким формам условности и жанрам, как фантастические элементы, мифы, притчи, сказки; проза Распутина отмечена усилением фольклорного элемента, психологизма, рефлексии. Оба писателя в разных формах развивают возможности реалистического художественного метода на общей аксиологической основе, иллюстрируя пути сохранения христианской традиции.

Pandemia do covid-19 e ensino remoto emergencial: em análise a Rede Estadual de Ensino de Mato Grosso do Sul
Authors: Da Silva Rodrigo Rocha , Pereira Ana Paula Camilo 
Published: September 2022

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo debater como tem sido promovido o ensino remoto emergencial, adotado a partir do surgimento do atual contexto de pandemia ocasionado pelo novo coronavírus (SARS-CoV-2) e a doença causada por ele (Covid-19), que afetaram os modos de vida da sociedade, sobretudo em virtude do isolamento/distanciamento social, face ao alto grau de propagação e letalidade. Metodologicamente, para a presente análise, de cunho qualitativo, foi realizado um levantamento bibliográfico e documental do processo de implementação do ensino remoto emergencial no contexto da Rede Estadual de Ensino de Mato Grosso do Sul, com foco para Campo Grande, bem como das medidas empregadas durante os anos letivos de 2020 e 2021 para o acesso e permanente vínculo dos estudantes com as escolas. Os resultados obtidos apontaram que as ações instituídas em Mato Grosso do Sul não foram suficientes para que os estudantes pudessem ter garantido seu direito à aprendizagem dos conteúdos escolares, uma vez que o sucesso das medidas dependia de fatores como: conhecimento dos professores sobre as plataformas virtuais e planejamento de atividades remotas que pudessem ser desenvolvidas pelos estudantes sem a mediação direta do professor; acesso dos estudantes à internet e às plataformas digitais; autonomia de aprendizagem por meio de atividades impressas; e engajamento dos estudantes a uma dessas formas de ensino. Concluímos que a falta de fomento por parte do Governo Federal e Estadual para disponibilizar acesso à internet e aos equipamentos e recursos necessários para o ensino remoto maximizam o problema das desigualdades sociais, acarretando prejuízos ao desenvolvimento educacional dos estudantes.
Potential socio-economic impact of replacing traditional woven baskets with reusable plastic crates on livelihoods of basket makers in Southeast Nigeria

Published: September 2022

In Nigeria, packaging of fresh fruits and vegetables especially tomatoes is mostly done using traditional woven baskets from palm fronds. There is a belief that the introduction of reusable plastic crates (RPC) may take away the source of livelihood of basket makers and sellers who are majorly domiciled in the southeastern zone of Nigeria. The study assessed the potential socio-economic impact of replacing baskets with plastic crates for fresh tomato transportation on the livelihoods of basket makers in southeast Nigeria. Primary data were collected using structured questionnaires. Overall, 430 basket makers were drawn from 16 basket production villages in Anambra, Imo, Ebonyi and Enugu states of the southeast. The primary source of income for the majority of the respondents (90.6%) was basket making, with other sources of income being mostly trading (21.3%) and farming (18.6%). About 28.9% of the respondents' income was between N11,000 and N20,000, while 34.7% were earning less thanN10,00 and 36.4% earning above N20,000. As many as 76.7% were willing to diversify into other businesses, particularly trading (37.3%), provision selling (16%) and skilled work (10.6%). The major challenges identified in diversifying were shortage of capital (96.3%) and a lack of prerequisite skills (3.7%). These challenges could be resolved by government intervention (47.8%), provision of financial aid, (39.2%); new jobs (2.2%) and loans (3.2%). Alternative income-generating activities include opening a provision store, food selling, rearing of animals/animal husbandry, trading in automobile spare parts, fruit selling, meat selling, bakery and confectionary. The perceived impacts of replacing baskets with RPCs were joblessness, increased poverty, crime and prostitution, rural urban drift and a dwindling economy. It is thus recommended that plastic crate introduction should be gradual and systematic and basket makers should be properly sensitized and informed. Government and non-governmental organizations should assist basket makers in mitigating the potential impact of replacing baskets with RPCs.

Published: September 2022

Background: The introduction of synthetic pesticides Lambda-cyhalothrinin for crop protection in general has significantly contributed to increased productivity. Lambda-cyhalothrin have been reported to cause toxic effects on humans, ranging from short-term effects such as headaches and nausea to chronic effects like cancer, reproductive damage and endocrine disruption. Lambda-cyhalothrin is a type-II highly active synthetic pyrethroid insecticide which contains a-cyano group. Lambda-cyhalothrin applied at the rate of 30 g a.i. ha-1 was found to be effective against shoot and fruit borer on brinjal.
Methods: The analytical method for the determination of Lambda-cyhalothrin 5% EC (Test Item) on brinjal was validated as per DG-SANTE 2019 guideline. The field trails including the dissipation study and final residue study were conducted in a randomized block design in open field. As per recommendation, dose of test item (T1= 15 g a.i/ha; T2 = 30 g a.i/ha) were 500 L/hectare for Trial. Lambda-cyhalothrin residues of brinjal samples were determined at 0, 1, 3, 5, 7 and 10 days at both application of recommended and double the recommended dose of test item. Result: The analytical method employed for determination of persistence residues of Lambda-cyhalothrin in brinjal was validated and found accurate and precise. The per cent dissipation of Lambda-cyhalothrin for the treatment T1 was 37.22% after 1 day which increased to 96.66% by 10th day, similarly for the double dose (T2) the initial dissipation was 57.14%, which increased to 99.7 % after 10th day. The half-life (T1/2) values of Lambda-cyhalothrin on brinjal were found to be 2.06 and 2.13 days for T1 and T2, respectively.

Objectives. To evaluate COVID-19 disparities among non-Hispanic American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) and non-Hispanic White persons in urban areas. Methods. Using COVID-19 case surveillance data, we calculated cumulative incidence rates and risk ratios (RRs) among non-Hispanic AI/AN and non-Hispanic White persons living in select urban counties in the United States by age and sex during January 22, 2020, to October 19, 2021. We separated cases into prevaccine (January 22, 2020–April 4, 2021) and postvaccine (April 5, 2021–October 19, 2021) periods. Results. Overall in urban areas, the COVID-19 age-adjusted rate among non-Hispanic AI/AN persons (n = 47 431) was 1.66 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.36, 2.01) times that of non-Hispanic White persons (n = 2 301 911). The COVID-19 prevaccine age-adjusted rate was higher (8227 per 100 000; 95% CI = 6283, 10 770) than was the postvaccine rate (3703 per 100 000; 95% CI = 3235, 4240) among non-Hispanic AI/AN compared with among non-Hispanic White persons (2819 per 100 000; 95% CI = 2527, 3144; RR = 1.31; 95% CI = 1.17, 1.48). Conclusions. This study highlights disparities in COVID-19 between non-Hispanic AI/AN and non-Hispanic White persons in urban areas. These findings suggest that COVID-19 vaccination and other public health efforts among urban AI/AN communities can reduce COVID-19 disparities in urban AI/AN populations.

Hip Pain in Nonambulatory Children with Type-I or II Spinal Muscular Atrophy
Authors: Hanna Rewais B. , Nahm Nick , Bent Melissa A. , Sund Sarah , Patterson Karen , Schroth Mary K. , Halanski Matthew A. 
Published: September 2022

Background:
The purpose of the present study was to define the prevalence of hip pain in nonambulatory children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) (type I or II) treated with aggressive medical management, prior to widespread use of disease-modifying therapies (DMTs).

Methods:
A retrospective chart review (1993 to 2017) was performed on children diagnosed with SMA to identify subjective reports of hip pain and associated interventions, while radiographs were evaluated to assess hip instability and spinal deformity.

Results:
Seventy-two patients (33 with type I and 39 with type II) met the inclusion criteria. Hip pain was more frequent in type-II SMA (49% versus 12%; p = 0.001). Seventeen percent of the patients with 2 copies of the SMN2 (survival motor neuron 2) gene, 53% of patients with 3 copies, and 1 of the 2 patients with 4 copies reported hip pain. Nearly all patients had abnormal findings on hip radiographs made at the onset of pain or at the latest follow-up; however, no patient with type-I and 18% of those with type-II SMA had pain that was severe enough to undergo invasive intervention (p = 0.01). The intervention reduced the pain in most of those patients but completely eliminated it in only 1 patient. No significant differences were found with respect to the mean age at the onset of scoliosis, the mean age at the time of scoliosis surgery, or whether insertion of growing rods or posterior spine fusion was performed between those with and without hip pain requiring invasive treatment.

Conclusions:
This study is, to our knowledge, the largest investigation to date to assess hip pain among nonambulatory children with type-I or type-II SMA and suggests that symptoms rather than radiographs be utilized to direct care. These data will be crucial in assessing any effects that the new DMTs have on the natural history of hip pathology and pain in nonambulatory patients with SMA.

Experimental and Visual Analysis of Proppant-Slickwater Flow in a Large-Scaled Rough Fracture
Authors: Qu Hai , Xu Yang , Hong Jun , Chen Xiangjun , Li Chengying , Liu Xu 
Published: September 2022

SummaryUnderstanding proppant transport and distribution in hydraulic fractures is crucial to designing and optimizing hydraulic fracturing treatments in the field. The actual fracture surfaces are typically rough and form a tortuous pathway, significantly affecting proppant migration. However, many rough models are very small in size, and some have only one rough surface. Thus, it is inadequate to display proppant transport behaviors and placement laws.This study proposed a novel method to develop large-scale rough panels reproduced from actual hydraulic fractures. A large transparent slot (2×0.3 m) was successfully constructed to simulate a shear fracture with 5 mm relative displacement of two matched surfaces. Six kinds of proppants were selected to study the effects of particle density and size. Four types of slickwater were prepared to achieve viscous diversity. A high-resolution particle image velocimetry (PIV) system detected the instantaneous velocity and vector fields in the rough pathway to understand particle transport behaviors. The specific parametric study includes a quantitative analysis of the proppant bed profile, equilibrium height, coverage area, injection pressure, and volumes of proppant settled in the slot and outlet tank. Also, five tests are carried out in the smooth slot, which has the same size as the rough slot.The test results demonstrate that the narrow rough fracture would significantly hinder particle transport, especially in the horizontal direction. The proppant bed is higher and closer to the inlet than that in the smooth model. Particles mixed with highly viscous slickwater easily aggregate in the two-sided rough model and gradually form finger-like regions at the lower part of the inlet. The unstable flow and vortices can disperse aggregated particles and avoid particle clogging. Proppants injected at the high volume fraction are prone to settle quickly and build up a higher bed contact with the inlet, leading to more considerable injection pressure. Perforation blockage often occurred in the rough model, and the near-wellbore screenout was induced as the bed blocked all perforations. Enhancing the fluid carrying capacity and using smaller proppant help avoid perforation blockage and improve far-field fracture conductivity. Two correlations were developed to predict the equilibrium height and coverage area of the proppant bed. The experimental results and laws provide novel understandings that can help optimize hydraulic fracturing design and treatment by rationally selecting proppant and fracturing fluid to improve the productivity in tight reservoirs.
