India's Security Threats From Chinese Military Funding And Economic Development In South Asia, Tran My Hai Loc

Global: Jurnal Politik Internasional

Since gaining independence in 1947, India's population, expansive land size, robust economic position, and historical and cultural ties have enabled it to dominate South Asian neighbours with comparatively less developed economies and weaker military strength. Since Narendra Modi assumed office as the Prime Minister of India in 2014, the “Neighbourhood First” policy was coined to enhance India's influence in South Asia, creating a favourable environment for its ascent as a global power. However, China's increasing military presence and influence in South Asia through financial and military support to neighbouring countries have disrupted the region's security architecture. This article uses qualitative …

A Conceptual Framework For Understanding Lake Governance: Lake’S People, Development, Conservation, And Government, Bing Baltazar C. Brillo

Asia-Pacific Social Science Review

Governance’s concept is well-established, multifarious, and too considerable in meanings, indicators, and frameworks, making it distinct to different people and unappealing to apply in lakes. Under this, governance ought to be reductionist-parsimony to be manageable and straightforward in refocusing the primary reference—lake governance. Lake governance’s concept is rarely utilized in scholarly literature nor acknowledged in the lake’s discourse. To ameliorate, the article intends to be a discourse—elucidate, understand, and contribute to lake governance’s analytical framework, respectively, the constituent’s interrelationship among the lake’s people, development, conservation, and the government, its most influential compartment. With this, lake governance asserts (a) development and …

Mir-142: A Master Regulator In Hematological Malignancies And Therapeutic Opportunities, Wilson Huang, Doru Paul, George A Calin, Recep Bayraktar

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a type of non-coding RNA whose dysregulation is frequently associated with the onset and progression of human cancers. miR-142, an ultra-conserved miRNA with both active -3p and -5p mature strands and wide-ranging physiological targets, has been the subject of countless studies over the years. Due to its preferential expression in hematopoietic cells, miR-142 has been found to be associated with numerous types of lymphomas and leukemias. This review elucidates the multifaceted role of miR-142 in human physiology, its influence on hematopoiesis and hematopoietic cells, and its intriguing involvement in exosome-mediated miR-142 transport. Moreover, we offer a comprehensive …

Dual Mode Control Of An Inverted Pendulum: Design, Analysis And Experimental Evaluation, Laura Alvarez Hidalgo, Ian Howard

School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics

We present an inverted pendulum design using readily available V-slot rail components and 3D printing to construct custom parts. To enable the examination of different pendulum characteristics, we constructed three pendulum poles of different lengths. We implemented a brake mechanism to modify sliding friction resistance and built a paddle that can be attached to the ends of the pendulum poles. A testing rig was also developed to consistently apply disturbances by tapping the pendulum pole, characterizing balancing performance. We perform a comprehensive analysis of the behavior and control of the pendulum. This begins by considering its dynamics, including the nonlinear …

User Acceptance Of Deskab Mobile Application For Early Detection Of Scabies In Indonesia, Sandra Widaty, Dewi Friska, Kusmarinah Bramono, Siti Maulidya Sari, Irene Darmawan, Aria Kekalih

Journal of General - Procedural Dermatology and Venereology Indonesia

Background: Individual case management strategy is not suitable for reducing scabies transmission, especially in high prevalence settings. A community-based approach has been proposed to control scabies. We developed a mobile application, called DeSkab, to empower non-medical personnel in crowded populations e.g., boarding schools, and to aid the identification of skin lesions suggesting scabies based on the cardinal signs of scabies. Early treatment and prevention of scabies transmission is expected to follow this approach. This was the initial development of the DeSkab mobile application which aims to assess user acceptance.

Methods: The DeSkab mobile application was designed using Java …

Lichen Amyloidosis Treated With Topical Combination Therapy And Narrowband Ultraviolet B Phototherapy, Ulfah Hasna Hasibah, Siti Aisha Nabila Ferina, Eka Komarasari, Prima Kartika Esti, Lenti Perangin Angin

Effects Of 5% Astaxanthin Gel On Angiogenesis And Granulation Tissue In Second-Degree Burn Animal Model, Aunur Rofiq, Anggun Putri Yuniaswan, Rizki Hapsari Nugraha

Journal of General - Procedural Dermatology and Venereology Indonesia

Background: Burn injuries generate more free radicals and lead to complex immune dysfunction, which can delay wound healing compared to other wound types. Angiogenesis, essential for wound healing, requires granulation tissue as a marker for successful wound healing. Low concentrations of reactive oxygen species (ROS) are necessary to initiate this process. Astaxanthin is a potent antioxidant with anti-inflammatory properties, known to activate angiogenesis and modulate ROS signaling during wound healing.

Methods: This experimental study aimed to evaluate 5% astaxanthin gel on second-degree burns using 30 male Wistar rats. Simple random sampling was utilized. A total of 6 groups …
