Analysis of the effect early cluster centre points on the combination of k-means algorithms and sum of squared error on k centroid

K-Means clustering is a clustering algorithm based on a partition with data only entered into one grub K, the algorithm determines the number of grub at the beginning and defines the set of K centroid. The initial determination of the cluster center is very influential on the results of the clustering process in determining the quality of clustering. The results of better clustering are often obtained after several trials. Sum of Squared Error (SSE) is a representation of homogeneity or uniformity within a cluster. In this study, the Sum of Squared Error (SSE) was used as an approach to determine the center point of the initial cluster of the K-Means algorithm. Tests were carried out on 2 datasets and the number of centroids 2,3,4,5,6,7,8, and 9 obtained values of centroids 3 and 4 in iris data had better number of iterations using a combination of K-Means and Sum of Squared Error ( SSE). These results prove that the grouping with the method of determining the cluster center starting with the K-Means algorithm is based on the minimum Sum of Squared Error value that can improve clustering results and increase the value of Sum of Squared Error (SSE), compared to conventional cluster center points.

DIAGNOSTIC VALUE OF DUPLEX DOPPLER ULTRASOUND PARAMETERS IN PAPILLARY THYROID CARCINOMA.

Context Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common type of thyroid cancer due to its high fibrotic content; it can affect the blood flow resistance. Objective To introduce duplex Doppler ultrasonography (DDUS) parameters of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and their correlation with size. Design The study was designed as a prospective study. Subjects and Methods Thyroid nodules of the patients who were already scheduled for thyroid surgery either for malignant thyroid nodules or multinodular goiter were evaluated for DDUS parameters. Size, systolic to diastolic flow velocity (S/D) ratio, pulsatility index (PI), and resistive index (RI) of each nodule were recorded. Nodules were diagnosed as PTC or benign nodules based on histopathology. DDUS parameters were compared between PTCs versus benign nodules and micro PTCs (≤ 10 mm) versus large PTCs (> 10 mm). A correlation analysis was performed between the size and DDUS parameters. Results 140 thyroid nodules (30 PTCs, 110 benign nodules) were obtained. The mean S/D ratio, PI, and RI values were significantly higher in PTC than in benign nodules (p values were 0.0001, 0.0003, and 0.0001 respectively). The optimal cut-off values of S/D (0.732), PI (0.732), and RI (0.738) had accuracy rates of 71%, 69%, and 69%, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference between micro PTC and large PTC with regards to DDUS parameters. The size and DDUS parameters of PTC showed no significant correlation. Conclusions PTC has a high resistive flow pattern regardless of its size; however the clinical utility of DDUS to differentiate a PTC from benign nodule is limited.
UNIQUE APPLICATIONS OF OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF SILICON NANOSTRUCTURES

Silicon nanostructures can be prepared by different methods that considerably change their optical properties depending on experimental conditions. They are also very sensitive to molecular environment and external influences that can be used for multiple applications in different areas. Silicon nanostructures prepared by laser ablation show large perspectives for molecular sensing and biomedical applications. In this paper, an overview of optical properties of silicon nanostructures with focus on nanoparticles prepared by ultrafast laser ablation in liquids is provided. It is shown that they reveal wide prospects for applications in nanobiomedicine and their unique characteristics can be significantly enhanced due to laser-induced metal incorporation. Metal inclusions lead to appearance of plasmonic properties in semiconductor nanomaterials that can be applied for molecule detection using surface enhancing of optical response.
Testing a theoretical resistance law for overland flow on a stony hillslope

Overland flow, sediments, and nutrients transported in runoff are important processes involved in soil erosion and water pollution. Modelling transport of sediments and chemicals requires accurate estimates of hydraulic resistance, which is one of the key variables characterizing runoff water depth and velocity. In this paper, a new theoretical power–velocity profile, originally deduced neglecting the impact effect of rainfall, was initially modified for taking into account the effect of rainfall intensity. Then a theoretical flow resistance law was obtained by integration of the new flow velocity distribution. This flow resistance law was tested using field measurements by Nearing for the condition of overland flow under simulated rainfall. Measurements of the Darcy–Weisbach friction factor, corresponding to flow Reynolds number ranging from 48 to 194, were obtained for simulated rainfall with two different rainfall intensity values (59 and 178 mm hr−1). The database, including measurements of flow velocity, water depth, cross‐sectional area, wetted perimeter, and bed slope, allowed for calibration of the relationship between the velocity profile parameter Γ, the slope steepness s, and the flow Froude number F, taking also into account the influence of rainfall intensity i. Results yielded the following conclusions: (a) The proposed theoretical flow resistance equation accurately estimated the Darcy–Weisbach friction factor for overland flow under simulated rainfall, (b) the flow resistance increased with rainfall intensity for laminar overland flow, and (c) the mean flow velocity was quasi‐independent of the slope gradient.
A mixed method study of second cancer risk among cancer survivors

Recent research shows that cancer survivors are at greater risk of developing cancer than the general population. Knowledge of the magnitude of second cancer risk and cancer-specific deaths among cancer survivors, factors that influence their second cancer risk, cancer survivors‟ perceptions of second cancer risk and current practices and existing gaps in follow-up care is urgently needed if we hope to prepare survivors and their healthcare providers as to how best to monitor their long-term health. An exploratory mixed method study, guided by Kaplan and colleagues (2000) multilevel approach to the health determinants, was conducted to provide a detailed understanding of second cancer risks among cancer survivors. Data collection methods included: (1) qualitative survey of current practices in the follow-up care offered for cancer survivors across Canada, (2) population-based health databases (cancer registry and health insurance databases), and (3) qualitative interviews on cancer survivors‟ perceptions of second cancer risks. Coordinated follow-up services are not universally available across Canada. Yet, cancer survivors have a 4-7-fold increased risk of developing cancer compared to the general population in Nova Scotia and Manitoba. Second cancer risks varied by demographic and disease-related factors such as age at first cancer diagnosis, cancer type, treatment era, and time since diagnosis. Second cancer risk does not exist only as an epidemiological calculation. Second cancer risk, from the perspective of cancer survivors, is shaped by more intuitive conceptual models than statistical models of risk. The theme, Life After Cancer – Living with Risk, described survivors‟ sense that second cancer risk is now a part of their everyday lives.

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is common, painful and disabling; in addition to patients, work colleagues, friends and family are negatively impacted. The currently available antidepressant drugs are not always useful – all achieve remission in only a proportion of cases, and none universally prevent relapse. They have troublesome side-effects (which may precipitate discontinuation), and are often used in suicidal behaviour.
Prevalence and antimicrobial resistance profiles of Escherichia coli isolated from free-range pigs.

INTRODUCTION Numerous studies about antimicrobial resistant Escherichia coli (E. coli) of animal origins have been conducted around the world, most of them focus on bacteria from animals raised in intensive breeding farms, but systematic studies on antimicrobial resistance in E. coli of free range animals are still lacking. METHODOLOGY This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and antimicrobial resistance profiles of E. coli from free-range pigs in Laiwu mountainous areas, eastern China. RESULTS Among 123 fecal samples, 123 non-duplicate E. coli were obtained with an isolation rate of 100.0％ (123/123). These E. coli showed the highest resistance rate to tetracycline (77/123, 62.6％), but all were sensitive to amoxicillin/clavulanic acid. Thirty-eight E. coli (38/123, 30.9％) showed multidrug resistance (MDR). Among 123 E. coli isolates, only 39 carried antimicrobial resistant genes detected in this study. Of these 39 isolates, blaTEM-1, blaCTX-M-14, blaCTX-M-15, qnrB, qnrD, qnrS1, floR and cfr genes were detected in 13, 9, 4, 7, 10, 7, 20, and 7 isolates, respectively. blaTEM-1 and blaCTX-M-14 genes were concomitantly detected in 6 isolates, and blaTEM, qnrB, qnrS and qnrD genes were concomitantly detected in 7 isolates. CONCLUSIONS Free-ranging pigs may be regarded as a potential reservoir for antibiotic resistant genes.
SATISFACTION LEVEL OF PATIENTS, PHYSICIANS, AND PRIVATE PRIMARY HEALTHCARE CENTER MANAGERS WITH CHRONIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM IN INDONESIA

Objective: Program PengelolaanPenyakitKronis (PROLANIS) or Chronic Disease Management Program (CDMP) is a healthcare system that was conducted by Healthcare and Social Security Agency in Indonesia to improve patients’ quality of life. The objective of this study was to analyze level satisfaction of patients, physicians, and private Primary Healthcare Centers (PHCs) with this program, focusing on hypertension care. Methods: This study was conducted in 7 private PHCs in Bandung City, Indonesia. A cross sectional study was performed to measure patient satisfaction with PSQ-18 on 143 PROLANIS patients with hypertension. A total number of 8 physicians and 7 private PHC managers were involved in this study. Level satisfaction of physicians and private PHC managers were observed by using in-depth interviews. Results: The results showed that patient satisfaction was estimated to be 68.52±8.54, which could be interpreted that patient satisfy with PROLANIS. In-depth interviews showed that physicians did not satisfy with PROLANIS due to several factors (e.g., unintegrated prescription systems, lack of medicines, uncompleted laboratory facilities, lack of physicians, unintegrated referral services, and lack of collaboration between primary and secondary healthcare system). On the other hand, private PHC managers were quite satisfied with PROLANIS due to its linearity with other activities in private PHCs. Conclusion: Level satisfaction of patients with PROLANIS is quite good, while physicians might not satisfy with this program. In particular, private PHC managers confirmed that they are satisfied with this program
Impact of anti-tubercular treatment on weight and symptoms of category I tuberculosis patients in an urban city of central India

TB is the ninth leading cause of death worldwide and the leading cause from a single infectious agent, ranking above HIV or AIDS. In 2016, there were an estimated 1.3 million TB deaths among HIV-negative people (down from 1.7 million in 2000) and an additional 374 000 deaths among HIV-positive people. An estimated 10.4 million people fell ill with TB in 2016: 90% were adults, 65% were male, 10% were people living with HIV (74% in Africa) and 56% were in five countries: India, Indonesia, China, the Philippines and Pakistan. Most deaths from TB can be prevented with early diagnosis and appropriate treatment. Millions of people are diagnosed and successfully treated for TB each year, averting millions of deaths (53 million 2000-2016), but there are still large gaps in detection and treatment. Most of the estimated number of incident cases in 2016 occurred in the World Health Organization (WHO) South-East Asia region (45%), the WHO African region (25%) and the WHO Western Pacific region (17%); smaller proportions of cases occurred in the WHO Eastern Mediterranean region (7%), the WHO European region (3%) and the ABSTRACT
Mapping the Link between Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Human Resource Management (HRM): How Is This Relationship Measured?

Despite the relevance of human resources in the management of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), confusion and theoretical chaos are still evident in the area. This manuscript provides a systematic review of the link between CSR and Human Resource Management (HRM), stressing the main topics along with the evolution and tendencies founded in this field. SciMAT was used to conduct a conceptual science mapping analysis based on co-word bibliographic networks. From 2006 to 2019, 194 documents were retrieved from the Web of Science. Considering the last period (2017–2019), the motor themes (those which are well-developed and relevant for the structure of the research field) were environmental management (including green HRM), sustainable HRM and pro-environmental behaviour. Socially responsible HRM (SR-HRM) was a basic theme (important, although not developed). Perceived organisational support was a specialised theme (well-developed, although less important), and employee commitment was an emerging theme (both weakly developed and marginal). In addition, a review of the measurement tools used in the main topics extracted from the previous analysis was carried out. Our analysis will help inform researchers and practitioners on the future of CSR and HRM and the previous efforts in the creation of measurement instruments.
MODELING OF THE LONG RUN IMPACT OF EXPORTS AND IMPORTS ON FOREIGN EXCHANGE RESERVE INFLOW IN NIGERIA

This study examined the long run relationship and causality among exports and imports data as explanatory variables to foreign reserves inflow into the Nigeria’s economy from January 2008 to December 2018 using Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) Bounds test approach to cointegration. The secondary data was obtained from the Central Bank of Nigeria. A unit root test of stationarity of the series returned all three series to be I(1) stationary. Bounds test result shows that there is cointegration among the variables specified in the model. The optimal lags specification returned ARDL (3, 0, 0) as overall best fitting model for monthly inflow of Foreign reserves. The speed of adjustment to long run equilibrium of 22.15% is significant to minimized distortions in the long run. The causality result highlights the crucial role exports trade plays in the accumulation of foreign reserves. Diagnostics checks on the model provided no significant evidence of serial correlation or presence of instability in the estimated coefficients at 5% significance level. The study recommends that Policy Makers should ensure definite steps are taken to diversify the country’s export trade so as to spur external reserves inflow, this will give the Country worthiness in the international market and leverage in times of economic crises thereby stabilising the economy, a stable economy will attract foreign direct investments which will further boost infrastructural development and in a long run a better living standard of the citizenry.
Research on Relationship Strength under Personalized Recommendation Service

Relationship of users in an online social network can be applied to promote personalized recommendation services. The measurement of relationship strength between user pairs is crucial to analyze the user relationship, which has been developed by many methods. An issue that has not been fully addressed is that the interaction behavior of individuals subjected to the activity field preference and interactive habits will affect interactive behavior. In this paper, the three-way representation of the activity field is given firstly, the contribution weight of the activity filed preferences is measured based on the interactions in the positive and boundary regions. Then, the interaction strength is calculated, integrating the contribution weight of the activity field preference and interactive habit. Finally, user relationship strength is calculated by fusing the interaction strength, common friend rate and similarity of feature attribute. The experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively improve the accuracy of relationship strength calculation.
