Abstract

Early-life period (≤ 1 month after birth) is critical for determining long- and short-term health of neonates. Composition of neonates’ gut microbiota varies greatly between individuals whose development is influenced by various factors including differences in maternal diet and lifestyle during pregnancy, related to population and ethnicity. Balanced microbial composition can create symbiosis among commensal microbes, immunomodulatory compound production, and subsequent immune response regulation. Unbalanced microbiota composition, characterized by more pathogenic organism, less diversity, and less resistance to disease, is called dysbiosis. Probiotic bacteria are a bacteria group contributing to the balance of neonates’ gut microbiota. Probiotic bacterial strains, such as Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium and Streptococcus strains, are present in neonatal meconium microbiota. Meconium, a biological material formed during pregnancy, is a useful source of information in describing in utero microbial environment. This review aims to describe probiotic potential in profile composition of neonates’ microbiota meconium of multiple ethnicities as marker of neonates’ health level. Molecular-based sequencing method, such as Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS), is the preferred method for analyzing complex microbiota communities, such as gut microbiota. Neonatal meconium samples are collected and DNA extractions are carried out, then the target genes are amplified by PCR. The amplicons obtained are sequenced and characterized to determine the presence of potential probiotic strains in sample. Whether the probiotic strains can be used to measure neonates’ health level during period of growth and development is also described. Those probiotic strains could be developed as microbial therapeutic agent in gastrointestinal tract disorder therapy.

Abstract

Purpose – Previous findings show that the relationship between students' levels of religiosity and academic dishonesty is inconsistent. The purpose of the present study is to clarify the relationship between religiosity with academic dishonesty. Design/methods/approach – This correlational research involved 251 students (60.6% female) of Madrasah Ibtidaiyah in Batang Regency, Central Java who were selected using cluster random sampling. Religiosity data was collected using the centrality of religiosity scale (TCR), and academic dishonesty data was assessed using the academic dishonesty scale (ADS). Data analysis was used using SPSS regression analysis. Findings – The results showed that religiosity predicted a decrease in academic dishonesty. This research also confirms that three dimensions of the 5 dimensions of religiosity significantly predict academic dishonesty, namely ideology, personal practice, and experience. The other two dimensions, namely intelligence and public practice, do not correlate with academic dishonesty. Research implications/limitations – These findings can strengthen collaboration between guidance and counseling teachers and religious education teachers to reduce students' academic dishonesty by strengthening students' levels of religiosity. Religiosity is not only seen as a ritual of worship. Originality/value – These findings have clarified and confirmed the relationship between religiosity and academic dishonesty, particularly the three dimensions of religiosity that contribute to explaining academic dishonesty.
