Growth Period of Porang (Amorphophallus onchophyllus P.) Through Tubber Cut and Inorganic Fertilizer Treatment

Porang (Amorphophallus onchophyllus) has many benefits for industry and health, because of the high content of glucomannan in its tubers. Porang needs to be developed, but the problem is getting a uniform source of tuber seeds. To get the uniform tuber seeds by dividing them. This study aims to get a uniform source of tuber seeds. This study was conducted in the field and laboratory. The experiment was arranged in a CRD. There are two factors, in seed tuber division: U1= Intact tuber, U2=Tuber cut in 2, U3=Tuber cut in 3 parts, and U4=Tubers cut into 4 parts. The second factor is fertilizer consisting of Urea, Za, and Phonska. The results of the combined treatment between tuber division and fertilizer treatment showed no significant interaction in all observed parameters. The seed tuber division treatment affects the bud break time, plant height, stem diameter, and canopy width, only at the beginning of growth. U1 gives the highest growth. The various fertilizer treatments only had a significant effect on plant height and stem diameter at 7 and 8 WAP. The treatment of splitting tuber seeds can replace intact tubers to be used as Porang tuber seeds

Capturing children's play behaviours in outdoor environments: A comparative analysis of play in early adolescence at primary school versus high school.

Transition from primary school to high school can be a time of significant stress for young people. Social connection may mitigate the stress experienced by young people, yet their play activities, which are a key source of connection and friendship, have not been examined. The aim of the study was to capture the play behaviours of children in outdoor school environments. Children's play behaviours in their final year of primary school and those in their first year of high school were captured using a standardised tool (Tool for Observing Play Outdoors). Observations occurred in school outdoor environments during break times in the South Australian autumn of 2021. Frequencies and types of play were compared between year levels using descriptive statistics and contingency tables. Data were collected from four schools (two metropolitan and two regional), which were all from a similar level on the Index of Educational Disadvantage. Four observation sessions were held at each school. Parents of 42 (16 girls) primary school students and 85 (33 girls) high school students gave permission for their children to participate. Physical play was the most frequent activity observed in both primary school and high school followed by expressive play. Year level was significantly associated with the type of play engaged in. Findings demonstrate children in the first year of high school continue to engage in physical and social play albeit less than those in the final year of primary school. Further research is needed to determine whether the physical and social environment or onset of puberty is more influential on changes in children's play.

Реконструкція літературного канону в незалежній Україні (90‑і рр. ХХ ст.)

The article reveals the peculiarities of the national literary canon changing during the beginning of 1990th, which we also called the transitional period. It was a time of radical break of social and cultural life of Ukraine. It was necessary to ensure the completeness of the national culture, which it had previously been deprived of due to its colonial status. This proved to be a difficult task that could be realized only in a longer time perspective. That task needed the efforts of several generations which represented different regions in their writings. A fundamentally new configuration has emerged in the literature of the period of independence of Ukraine. This configuration is embodied by several distinctive features of this time. Firstly, we are talking about the literature of socialist realism. For a long time, it was functional and dominant in the reader’s perception. Those texts have lost their significance. Secondly, we had a situation when an understanding of the global literary context emerged. The reason for this had become the numerous significant works from the West and from neighbouring Central European countries, which were translated, published and discussed in Ukrainian and which reflected the postcolonial thoughts. Thirdly, an impressive retrospective of national literature was opened. There much of literary works had not been known or properly appreciated before. Fourthly, a new discourse began to fill in. It was provided by the literary texts of Yurii Andrukhovych, Oksana Zabuzhko, Ihor Rymaruk, Leonid Kononovych, Volodymyr Danylenko, Oles Ulianenko, Yurii Gudz, and many others. That discourse contributed to the accumulation of the aesthetic quality that will become the way for creating a new national canon of literature. The creation of such a canon began at the beginning of the XXI century, when real prerequisites emerged at the level of school and university literature teaching. Also, the basis of the new canon is clearly manifested in the content of modern textbooks and anthologies that represent contemporary Ukrainian literature.

Performance prediction of the centrifugal air compressor for fuel cells considering degradation characteristics based on the hierarchical evolutionary model

The performance of the centrifugal air compressor is closely related to the efficiency and energy density of the fuel cell system, and extensive work has been done in this study to achieve precise performance predictions of the compressor considering degradation characteristics. The durability test of the compressor was carried out for 5000 h, and degradation characteristics with break-in time were discussed in detail. On this basis, the hierarchical evolutionary model was constructed to perform the performance predictions based on the Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LightGBM) and Multi-objective Whale Optimization Algorithm (MOWOA). The results demonstrate that the outlet pressure of the compressor decreases by 9.4 kPa and the power consumption increases by 0.71 kW at rated volume flow rate after the break-in of 5000 h, with attenuation ratios of 4.7 % and 12.2 %, respectively. The final non-dominated solution sets have excellent uniformity, diversity and convergence, proving that the developed MOWOA has high adaptability and strong optimization capability. The hierarchical evolutionary model achieves exact predictions for the outlet temperature, flow rate and pressure of the compressor, with absolute relative errors (AREs) below 1 % in outlet temperature and pressure while 5 % in outlet flow rate. All of these provide an efficient multi-objective optimization algorithm and an auto-calibrated hierarchical evolutionary model for further performance optimization of the air compressor.

Physical discomforts, feeling of the high work intensity and the related risk factors of the frontline medical staff during COVID-19 epidemic: an early-outbreak, national survey in China.

Facing the unknown virus, COVID-19 medical staff kept wearing thick personal protective equipment during their work in the early stage of the outbreak. The survey was designed to investigate the physical discomforts, the feeling of the work intensity and the related risk factors of the frontline medical staff during COVID-19 epidemic in the early outbreak. An national survey was carried out in China from March 17th 2020 to March 20th 2020 by applying a standardized WeChat questionnaire survey. The doctors or nurses working in the wards for the confirmed COVID-19 patients on front-line were eligible to participate in the survey. Descriptive analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used. A total number of 515 COVID-19 medical staff, including 190 physicians and 325 nurses participated in this survey. 375 medical staff (72.8%) experienced physical discomforts at work, mostly consist of dyspnea (45.8%), pain (41.0%), chest distress (24.1%), dizziness (18.8%), and weakness (17.5%), while wearing thick isolation clothes at work. The mean onset time and peak time of these symptoms were 2.4 h and 3.5 h after working, respectively. 337 medical staff (65.4%) suffered from sleep disorders. 51 medical staff (10%) were highly worried about being infected by COVID-19 even during their work breaks. 246 medical staffs (47.8%) felt high work intensity and the independent influential factors were the effective daily sleep time and anxiety levels at break time (p = 0.04). The frontline medical staff during COVID-19 epidemic felt different physical discomforts when they wear thick isolation clothes at work in the early outbreak and they felt high work intensity. These precious data will help optimize the work management strategy to ensure the physical and mental health of medical staff in the face of similar outbreaks in future.

Employment intention and career planning of male nursing students in different levels of colleges and universities: Aqualitative study.

To explore the employment intention and career planning of male nursing students at different levels of colleges and universities and provide references for formulating individualized training content. Phenomenological research method in qualitative research. Using a phenomenological research method, 15 male nursing students from three levels of colleges and universities were interviewed in a one-to-half structure, and the data were analysed using NVivo12.0 software and the Colaizzi seven-step analysis method. Four themes and 10 sub-themes were extracted. The four themes included professional identity experience, nursing learning experience, career expectation and planning and educational needs. The 10 sub-themes included the negative effects of traditional impressions, the gradual establishment of professional identity, public health events promote professional identity, negative experiences in learning, positive growth from learning, varied career plans, career expectations and influencing factors, a reasonable schedule, diversity of content requirements and the positive effect of teaching teachers. Influenced by many factors, the employment intention and career planning of male nursing students at different higher education levels are varied. Schools and clinical practice units should strengthen the training of employment intention and career planning and make reasonable time adjustments to the training content. In total, 15 male interns accepted our interview request. We utilized their break time to conduct the interviews, resulting in significant contributions to the content of the article.

Pacing Strategies Differ by Sex and Rank in 2020 CrossFit® Open Tests.

This retrospective study collected video recordings of a random selection of eighty men and women (n = 160) completing all five tests of the 2020 CrossFit® Open. All competitors were ranked within the top 10,000 overall but were sub-divided based on whether they ranked within the top 10% of their respective divisions. To examine the effect of sex and rank on pacing strategy, video analysis quantified the overall repetition completion rate on each test, as well as per minute (or round) repetition completion rates for each test's individual exercises, quantity of failed repetitions, break times, and transition times. All per minute (or round) data were aggregated into first- and last-half or total test average, slopes, and coefficient of variation. Sex and rank analyses of variance were performed on averages, slopes, and coefficients of variation for each variable calculated over the first and last halves of each test, except test 5 (total only). The top 10% of men were 17.5% faster (p < 0.001) than everyone else in tests 1, 3, and 5. The top 10% of women and remaining men were ~9.5% faster than remaining women in tests 1 and 3. In test 5, the remaining men were faster than top 10% of women (~11.2%, p < 0.001), and both were faster than the remaining women. In tests 2 and 4, the top 10% of athletes were 9.7% faster (p < 0.001) than remaining athletes, and at the same time, men were 7.7% faster (p < 0.001) than women. Analysis of each test's components revealed the top 10% of competitors to be faster and more consistent in most areas, while men were generally faster than women in gymnastics components and more consistent with their pace for resistance training exercises. These data provide insight into the differential factors linked to success in the men's and women's CFO divisions.

Outdoor play and learning practices from a comparative case study perspective

Outdoor play and learning (OPL) is emphasised differently across countries, and cultural aspects influence these practices. There are ongoing debates around outdoor learning in early years, and the communication of the value, effectiveness, and applicability of OPL across schools has encountered obstacles due to various factors. The diversity of implementations within different cultures is obvious, and there are even some variations within the same country in terms of practices and understanding of the philosophy of OPL. The current case study contributes to the gap in mapping OPL practices using a comparative approach in two types of case schools in three countries: England, Greece, and Türkiye. This study offers insights from both teachers’ and head teachers’ perspectives in addition to considering observation notes. Several themes emerged from the analysis, including ‘components of schools’ daily life outdoors, forest trips and excursions, from break time to their time, and the question of training’. In conclusion, school culture and the selected educational philosophy appear to have a more significant impact on OPL practices than environmental features alone. However, the findings indicate that schools lack a strategic and systematic approach to the deployment of OPL into the school philosophy. In terms of focusing more on the outdoors, personal values play a significant role, as does the support of stakeholders. The practical similarities and differences highlighted in this study can support the development of OPL practices and inform stakeholders in the early years to reconsider their contexts and potentially introduce transformative changes.

Growth and Yield of Tea (Camellia sinensis) as Influenced by Nano Urea during Pre and Post Pruning Opertation

The growth and yield parameters of tea on mature plants of TV 23 clone were studied after application of Nano-urea as foliar spray at Experimental Garden for Plantation Crops, Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat during the period 2021-22.&#x0D; Bud breaking number and time attain to tipping height were two growth parameters observed after pruning operation was carried out. Numbers of bud break was counted 30 days, 40 days and 50 days after pruning respectively. After 50 days maximum bud breaking number (106/ plant) was observed in 0.5% Nano-urea applied plot. To attain that height, lesser time was required (51 days) by the same plot. Plucking density, fine leaf count and green leaf yield were three yield parameters observed during first, second and rain flush. Plucking point density was found maximum (50 no/m2) during rain flush where 0.4% Nano-urea applied in 3 sprays. Fine leaf count was found maximum during first flush than it decreasing during second flush and rain flush respectively. The green leaf yield was found high in the plot where 0.4% Nano-urea applied in 3 sprays during rain flush.

Evaluation of asphaltenes a potential alternative for cement in stabilized base courses using asphalt emulsion

Stabilization of pavement base material using asphalt emulsion has been widely used to improve pavement performance. This technology produces a high-quality base course material with decreased energy consumption, carbon footprint, and raw material usage. Cement has been used as a common additive to improve these mixes strength and moisture resistance. However, some drawbacks are also associated with cement, such as negative environmental impacts, high costs, and low-temperature deficiencies. Asphaltenes is a by-product of oil-sand bitumen with little commercial value in current practice. To investigate the impact of asphaltenes on improving the rheological properties of asphalt binder, a series of binder characteristics tests using a dynamic shear rheometer, breaking time and microscopic evaluation is conducted on modified asphalt emulsion with asphaltenes. Asphaltenes is then added to asphalt emulsion-stabilized granular material, to be compared with mixtures prepared with cement. Two asphaltenes and cement-modified mixes are prepared and compared to unmodified mixtures. All mixes are tested for permanent deformation and moisture sensitivity using a Hamburg wheel tracker and flow number test, while the low-temperature properties are evaluated using indirect tensile strength tests. Dynamic modulus is also evaluated to analyze the viscoelastic behavior of the mixes. The results of this study reveal a considerable increase in the rutting resistance of asphalt mixes by adding 1% of both additives (by total weight of mix), and asphaltenes-modification shows less adverse impacts at intermediate and low temperatures than cement-modification.

Simulation study on arc motion process of DC miniature circuit breakers

Based on the theory of magnetohydrodynamics, a mathematical model of air arc in the arc extinguishing chamber of a DC miniature circuit breaker was established. By coupling external circuit characteristics and contact movement process, the motion process of the arc was simulated and analyzed. On this basis, the effects of breaking speed, time constant, and magnetic field on the arc motion characteristics were studied. The study showed that increasing the breaking speed appropriately and adding appropriate magnetic field can improve the breaking performance of DC miniature circuit breakers. The research results can provide reference for the optimization design of DC miniature circuit breakers.

GRB 221009A: Revealing a Hidden Afterglow during the Prompt Emission Phase with Fermi-GBM Observations

Recently, LHAASO reported the detection of the brightest-of-all-time GRB 221009A, revealing the early onset of a TeV afterglow. We analyze the spectral evolution of the X-ray/gamma-ray emission of GRB 221009A measured by the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) during the dips of two prompt emission pulses (i.e., intervals T 0 + [300–328] s and T 0 + [338–378] s, where T 0 is the GBM trigger time). We find that the spectra at the dips transit from the Band function to a power-law function, indicating a transition from the prompt emission to the afterglow. After ∼T 0 + 660 s, the spectrum is well described by a power-law function, and the afterglow becomes dominant. Remarkably, the underlying afterglow emission at the dips smoothly connect with the afterglow after ∼T 0 + 660 s. The entire afterglow emission measured by GBM can be fitted by a power-law function F ∼ t −0.95±0.05, where t is the time since the first main pulse at T* = T 0 + 226 s, consistent with the TeV afterglow decay measured by LHAASO. The start time of this power-law decay indicates that the afterglow peak of GRB 221009A should be earlier than T 0 + 300 s. We also test the possible presence of a jet break in the early afterglow light curve, finding that both the jet break model and single power-law decay model are consistent with the GBM data. The two models cannot be distinguished with the GBM data alone because the inferred jet break time is quite close to the end of the GBM observations.

An ergonomic focus evaluation of work-related musculoskeletal disorders amongst operators in the UAE network control centres

Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) have rapidly increased during the last decade, but only a few descriptive surveys have been conducted in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). This study investigated the prevalence of WMSDs and analysed their ergonomic risks amongst operators in the network control rooms across two government organisations, X and Y, in the UAE. Essential data were collected by the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire (NMQ) and the Maastricht Upper Extremity Questionnaire (MUEQ) from online surveys and direct observations based on the Rapid Office Strain Assessment (ROSA) and the Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA) form and ergonomic measurements for the working environments, respectively. Fifty-three and eighteen operators participated from Organisations X and Y. This study found a high presence of WMSDs in both organisations over the past 12 months. In Organisation X, individual, work-related physical and psychosocial risk factors of high BMI, educational level, morning work shift, high job duration, lack of exercise habit, awkward body posture, high job demand, low job control, and low work social support were associated with WMSDs in different body areas (p < 0.05). In Organisation Y, older age, high BMI, high job duration, lack of exercise habits, unergonomic workstations, awkward body posture, low break time, high job demand, and stress level were associated with WMSDs in different body areas (p < 0.05). The control room operators' most affected body areas were the back, eyes, and neck. Several efficient ergonomic intervention ideas were explored to lessen the detrimental effects of WMSDs and preclude the development of WMSDs amongst the control centre operators.

직무환경이 노인요양시설 요양보호사의 이직 의도에 미치는 영향

The purpose of the study is to suggest a plan to prevent turnover of nursing care workers by revealing the impact of work environment on turnover intention among various variables that affect turnover intention. The subjects of the study are care workers working in elderly care facilities. To collect data, questionnaires were obtained from 280 care workers working in elderly care facilities in North and South Chungcheong Provinces, and descriptive statistics, mean difference, and hierarchical multiple regression analysis were conducted. As a result of the study, the variables that influenced the turnover intention of nursing care workers were work-related variables such as wages, break time, number of residents in charge, and work-related diseases, and interpersonal and organizational factors also influenced turnover intention. Based on the research results, it was suggested to establish wage guidelines for nursing care workers, prepare regulations for night rest time and the number of residents in charge, and prepare measures to prevent musculoskeletal diseases.

공동주택 경비와 경비업법 적용에 관한 재검토

Although Multi-family Housing 'security guards' perform a variety of tasks such as cleaning and disinfection, garbage collection, and parking management as management tasks, they are limited to narrow security rooms, pre-modern working every other day, excessive break time allocation to avoid wage increases, and routine short-term contracts. They face a variety of problems, including employment instability and labor disadvantages due to the application of intermittent monitoring.&#x0D; In order to solve this problem, the competent authority newly established Article 15-2 of the 「Security Services Industry Act」 for the purpose of improving the working environment of these security guards and stipulated that they cannot be allowed to engage in activities beyond the scope of security work. However, conflicts between security guards, residents, and management entities caused.&#x0D; Accordingly, as a solution, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport established Article 65-2, Paragraph 1 of the 「Multi-family Housing Management Act」, allowing security guards to engage in tasks necessary for managing Multi-family Housing complexes within the scope prescribed by Presidential Decree.&#x0D; And article 69-2 of the Enforcement Decree of the same Act includes tasks necessary for managing Multi-family Housing complexes, such as assistance with cleaning and similar beautification, monitoring and organizing the separate discharge of recyclable resources, posting notices and putting mail in mailboxes, and tasks such as theft, fire, and theft in Multi-family Housing complexes. Parking management and storage of delivery items were stipulated to the extent of preventing risks.&#x0D; However, security guards under the 「Multi-family Housing Management Act」 and security guards under the 「Security Services Industry Act」 show differences in the content of their work, and also show differences in their work performance methods in terms of employment structure, employment type, and employment conditions. Also, in relation to laws, the 「Multi-family Housing Management Act」 and the 「Security Services Industry Act」 must be interpreted as separate laws, and it is not appropriate to directly apply the 「Security Services Industry Act」 to the security work of security guards for Multi-family Housing management.&#x0D; Accordingly, through this paper, the researcher reexamined the already proposed improvement plan for the work of Multi-family Housing security guards and proposed an amendment to the 「Multi-family Housing Management Act」

The Survival Rate and Growth of Grafted-Seedling of Durian (Durio zibethinus Murr.) Using 3 Rootstocks Ages and 3 Levels of Scion Buds

This experiment was performed to determine the survival rate of grafted-seedling growth of durians using various ages of rootstocks and different numbers of scion buds. The study was arranged in a two-factorial randomized block design with three replications. The first factor was rootstock age (4, 6, and 8 weeks) and the second factor was the number of buds on the scion (1, 2, and 3 buds). The percentage of the successful grafting and several growth parameters, i.e., time of bud break, length and diameter of new shoots were evaluated for three months. Data were analysed using analysis of variance and continued with the post-hoc Tukey’s test. The results showed that age of rootstock did not affect percentage of successful grafting, time of budburst, shoot length and shoot diameter. Likewise, the number of shoots did not affect the percentage of successful grafting, shoot length, and shoot diameter, but had a significant effect on bud bursting time (P&lt;0.05). Scion that had three buds resulted in the fastest time of bud break (28.45 days). The highest percentage of successful graft union was in the 4-week-old rootstock and scion with 2 and 3 buds (100%), the maximal successful also obtained in the 6-week-old rootstocks with 3 buds. The four-week-old rootstocks also gave the best result in the new shoot length and diameter. Nevertheless, there was no interaction between rootstock age and the number of buds on scion in survival rate of grafted seedlings of durian.

Respecting the rights of breastfeeding women in Poland. Survey results.

In Poland one has a well constructed law supporting and protecting breastfeeding women. It appears, however, that it is not adequately respected, with the exception of break time for nursing mothers at work. The goal of the conducted research was to evaluate whether Polish women are aware of their rights during breastfeeding period and how well respected are they in reality. &#x0D; The research was bound up with an educational campaign entitled “Karmię! Mam prawo!” („I breastfeed! I have the right!”) conducted in April and May 2023. It covered 3183 mothers, of whom 97% (3089) were breastfeeding. 1/3 of women know, but also 1/3 of women do not, that they have rights as a breastfeeding mother as well as a patient and a citizen. As many as 47,2% (1502) of surveyed women were refused certain services due to breastfeeding their child. 22,2% (708) of mothers felt discriminated because of breastfeeding, 53% (1702) were recommended an elimination diet, while 46,7% (1488) were suggested to stop breastfeeding without important reasons. Medical care in the hospital was insufficient in 39,4% (1155) of women, 69,5% (2211) of children were additionally fed with breast milk substitutes in hospitals while 25,1% (799) of women were not asked for consent for such intervention. 69,7% (2219) of mothers have seen advertisements for formula, mostly in hospitals and healthcare centers. Although many women’s rights are broken, almost 67,5% (2150) of mothers declare that they would not know what to do or would decline to act in order to assert their rights or claim a compensation for the harms suffered. The educational campaign led by the Center for Lactation Science has as its goal to raise awareness among women about their rights, so that they demand that they be respected, for themselves and their children, as well as for the public health.
