HUBUNGAN POLA KONSUMSI ALA VEGETARIAN TERHADAP LEMAK VISCERAL

Vegetarian, vegan and non-vegan, can lower the risk of metabolic syndrome disease caused by central obesity by measuring waist circumference and the general obesity by assessing Body Mass Index (BMI). One of alternative to prevent can be done by changing the pattern of diet habits from omnivores (the consumption of animal products and vegetable and dairy) become vegetarian (vegetable and dairy product consumption). The purpose of this study was to analyze differences in waist circumference and BMI in terms of nutrient intake in the vegetarian community members Indonesia Vegetarian Society (IVS) at the age of 30-58 years in Maha Vihara Maitreya Medan. This study was an observational with cross sectional design. These research subjects are divided into two groups, 42 vegans and 42 non-vegans selected by screening, and then determined by purposive sampling. Nutrient intake data collected by interview using the 24-hour recall, while the antropometry measurement using a measuring tape, scales and microtoise. Analysis were done using Independent T-test. The results showed there’s difference of waist circumference between vegan and non vegan (p = 0.008), but there is no difference of IMT (p = 0105). Statistically, energy and protein intake was not different (p> 0.05), however, there were differences found in carbohydrate intake (p = 0.001) and total fat (p = 0.005) in the vegan and non vegan. The continue research on the diet of vegan vegetarian adverse event to metabolic syndrome and the characteristics of the food based on local cultural wisdom needs to be done.

Effect of Extraction Residue on the Properties of Asphalt Binders

The present study investigates the influence of extraction residue on the properties of aged 7 and unaged asphalt binders. The extraction residues such as trichloroethylene and mineral 8 filler were varied in selected range of percentage (0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 mineral filler while when there are no equipments for high speed centrifugal separation and pressure filtration. 67 They also indicated after test results that the adverse effects from residual trichloroethylene can be decreased if 68 the temperature of Abson recovery experiment can be reduced to less than 140? , and the protection gas can be 69 removed, when no condensing liquid trichloroethylene coming out from the end of the orifice of the condenser 70 tube. Physical properties, including softening point, penetration, 15? ductility and the 60? dynamic viscosity 71 have been carried out by (Liu Zhihui, 2012;Hu Xudong, 2003) on virgin and recovered blank pitch binders using 72 trichloroethylene under welldefined operating conditions. The results obtained from the experiments showed that 73 the penetration degree increased while the softening point and the 60? viscosity decrease as well as the asphalt 74 density when the asphalt is recovered. They concluded that the reduction of the physical properties of recovered 75 binder is due to the non-completely removal of the solvent. To investigate the factors that affect the recovery of 76 asphalt, the effect of the trichloroethylene and powder mineral residue at four different percentages (0.5%, 1%, 77 1.5%, and 2%) on the asphalt properties has been analyzed. In this study, 70# grade asphalt and SBS modified 78 asphalt were used to analyze the effect of residue on the properties of asphalt. A large number of experiments 79 have shown that the possible residual residues for the recovery of asphalt from rotary evaporators include mineral 80 filler and trichloroethylene, which are mainly aimed at the effects of residuals on the properties of asphalt. To 81 investigate the factors that affect the recovery of asphalt, the effect of the trichloroethylene and powder mineral 82 residue at four different percentages (0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2%) on the asphalt properties has been analyzed. 83 In this study, 70# grade asphalt and SBS modified asphalt were used to analyze the effect of residue on the properties of asphalt. filler the parallelism of the test be relatively discrete. It has then a little effect on the test
Calibration automatique d'un réseau de capteurs sans fil à effet Hall mesurant la consommation énergétique résidentielle

Un reseau de capteurs sans fil mesurant la consommation energetique residentielle de chacun des disjoncteurs du panneau d’alimentation principal d’une residence est un outil tres pratique pour un usager, mais un tel systeme peut s’averer dispendieux. Afin de reduire le cout de ce produit, un reseau de capteurs a effet Hall est propose en alternative aux traditionnels transformateurs de courants. Un systeme utilisant plusieurs capteurs a effet Hall est beaucoup moins couteux et est plus facile d’installation grâce a son potentiel de miniaturisation. Par contre, la precision des mesures des capteurs a effet Hall n’est pas la meme que celle des transformateurs de courants puisque sa sensibilite depend de la proximite de celui-ci au fil qu’il mesure, ce qui cause alors des incertitudes au niveau du gain du capteur. Ce memoire contribue a l’amelioration de la precision des mesures prises par les capteurs a effet Hall en proposant deux algorithmes numeriques afin de faire la calibration des capteurs. Le premier algorithme est l’algorithme des moindres carres (LMS) qui est simple et peut calibrer les capteurs sans presence de diaphonie tandis que le second est l’analyse en composantes independantes rapide (FastICA) qui est un algorithme plus complexe, mais en mesure d’attenuer le probleme de diaphonie lorsqu’il est present. Suite a la presentation du systeme et de la theorie liee aux algorithmes, les resultats des simulations et des experimentations sont presentes pour les deux algorithmes. Pour les resultats de simulation avec LMS, l’erreur moyenne du courant mesure par capteur pour 3 a 30 capteurs sans diaphonie et avec bruit est de 0,53 ARMS. Pour ce qui est de la combinaison de FastICA et LMS, l’erreur moyenne du courant mesure avec diaphonie et avec bruit est de 0,55 ARMS pour 3 capteurs allant jusqu’a 0,83 ARMS pour 30 capteurs. Deux types d’installations sont testes pour les resultats experimentaux. L’algorithme LMS pour les tests sans diaphonie est en mesure de reduire l’erreur moyenne par capteur pour 3 capteurs a 0,47 ARMS pour l’installation 1 (cafetiere, fusil a air chaud et purificateur d’air) et a 0,49 ARMS pour l’installation 2 (cafetiere, fusil a air chaud et plinthes controlees par un thermostat electronique). Puisque les mesures d’un des appareils utilises pour l’installation 1 sont tres bruitees, la combinaison de FastICA et LMS pour les tests avec diaphonie a seulement reduit l’erreur moyenne par capteur pour 3 capteurs a 3,16 ARMS. Par contre, l’erreur est reduite a 0,85 ARMS pour l’installation 2.
Obesity and comorbid conditions: An urban population-based cross-sectional study in Northwest India

obesity. It is simple to calculate, and it categorizes a person as underweight, normal, overweight, and obese with its stages. [4] Overweight and obesity substantially increase the risk of premature morbidity and mortality due to excess body fat accumulation which affects individuals health negatively. [5] Obesity contributes to numerous and varied comorbid conditions. Complications can occur in many organ systems, ranging from cardiovascular to respiratory Background: Obesity of late has become a challenge for public health planners both in developing as well as the developed nations. Obesity has assumed pandemic proportions worldwide. Objectives: (1) To determine the prevalence of obesity in urban adults aged 30 years and above. (2) To find the common comorbid conditions associated with obesity. Material and Methods: Using systematic random sampling, the current cross-sectional study was conducted among urban adults ≥ 30 years of age using a pre-designed, pre-tested, and pre-structured questionnaire. Information regarding sociodemographic profile and current health status were recorded. Anthropometric data regarding height and weight were also taken. The data thus collected were analysed, and Chi-square was used as the test of significance. Results: Overall prevalence of obesity and overweight in both sexes was 26.43% and 43.69%, respectively. Hypertension was the most common comorbid condition. Among the various risk factors, age, sex, and socioeconomic status were significantly associated with body mass index (BMI) ( P < 0.05). Conclusion: The trends show a high prevalence of both obesity as well as overweight which is a cause of concern. Therefore, the need for early detection to prevent obesity-associated complications is of prime concern. Despite emergence of new tools, BMI remains safe and effective tool not only to calculate but also to detect pre-obesity at an incipient stage. ABSTRACT
Effect of Contralateral Hip Adduction on Activity of Lumbar Stabilizers and Pelvic Lateral Tilting During Hip Abduction in Side-Lying

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of contralateral hip adduction (CHA) on the muscle activity of lumbar stabilizers and the angle of pelvic lateral tilting during hip abduction in side lying. Twenty healthy male subjects with no medical history of lower extremity or lumbar spine disorders were recruited for the study. Subjects randomly performed preferred hip abduction (PHA) and hip abduction with contralateral hip adduction in side lying. The muscle activities of the dominant side rectus abdominis, external oblique, internal oblique, quadratus lumborum, gluteus medius, and non-dominant side hip adductor longus were measured during PHA and CHA by using a surface electromyography (EMG) system. Pelvic lateral tilting motion was measured by using a three-dimensional motion analysis system. Data on EMG and pelvic motion were collected at the same time during PHA and CHA. A paired t-test was used to compare EMG activity and the angle of pelvic lateral tilting in the two exercises. The study found that the EMG activities of all muscles were more increased significantly in CHA than PHA condition. The angle of pelvic lateral tilting was more decreased significantly in CHA than PHA condition. These findings suggest that CHA could be recommended as a hip abduction exercise for activating lumbar stabilizers and decreasing compensatory pelvic lateral tilting motion.
Adjacent Superpixel-Based Multiscale Spatial-Spectral Kernel for Hyperspectral Classification

The kernel-based spatial-spectral approach has been widely used for hyperspectral image (HSI) classification in recent years, where composite kernel (CK) and spatial-spectral kernel (SSK) are the most representative methods. Unlike CK, SSK measures the similarity of two clusters in kernel space to capture the hidden manifold in HSI, which has proven to be powerful to handle the well-known sample selection bias problem. However, the cluster feature in kernel space is always handled by a spatial filter which treats a cluster as a collection of individually independent pixels. This is neither efficient nor robust. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a method which treats each cluster as the combination of several subclusters. On the basis of the assumption that each manifold within a local region is a homeomorphic subspace in Euclidean space, we consider computing subcluster-based spatial-spectral features in the original input space and measure the similarities between subclusters to construct the proposed generalized SSK (GSSK). Moreover, due to the powerful ability to preserve the object boundaries, the adjacent superpixels (ASs) under an over-segmentation condition seem to be perfect candidates that serve as the subclusters. Therefore, we propose AS-based GSSK (ASGSSK) for HSI classification. Furthermore, the superpixel-based multiscale strategy is utilized in the framework of ASGSSK (termed ASMGSSK) to further explore the multiscale structures of HSI for improving the classification performance and sidestepping the selection of an optimal superpixel scale. Compared with the classic SSK method, the proposed ASMGSSK achieves 2.2% and 3.8% higher overall accuracy on average, with only 25% and 20% computational consumption for the Indian Pines and University of Pavia datasets, respectively. Experiments on two real HSI datasets demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method.
Diagnostic Accuracy of 13C-Urea Breath Test in the Diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori Infection in Patients with Partial Gastric Resection due to Peptic Ulcer Disease

Aims: We investigated the diagnostic properties of the 13C-urea breath test (13C-UBT) prospectively. These are well validated in nonresected patients before and after treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection but not in patients with partial gastric resection due to peptic ulcer disease. Methods: Hospitalized patients with previous gastric resection and indications for upper gastrointestinal endoscopy were recruited for the study. Biopsy specimens were obtained from the fundus mucosa and the gastric remnant adjacent to the gastroenteric anastomosis for histological examination and rapid urease test (HUT test). Histological slides were evaluated after hematoxylin and eosin and Warthin-Starry dye staining. 200 ml orange juice was given orally after two baseline breath samples had been taken, and 30 min after ingestion of 75 mg 13C urea two more breath samples were obtained and analyzed by ratio mass spectrometry. The Warthin-Starry dye-stained sample was taken as reference. Results: 68 patients (47 male, 21 female, mean age 62 years; 52 Billroth II resection, 17 Billroth I resection) were included in the study. The overall prevalence of histologically proven H. pylori infection was 36.7%. The sensitivity of the 13C-UBT was 52%, the specificity 93%. The positive predictive value was 81.25%, the negative predictive value 76.9% and the accuracy was 77.9%. The sensitivity of the HUT test reached 60%, and the specificity 97%. Conclusion: The diagnostic accuracy of 13C-UBT compared with the Warthin-Starry dye staining is low. The breath test, performed in the above-described manner, cannot be recommended as a noninvasive diagnostic tool for diagnosis of H. pylori infection in patients after partial gastrectomy as a result of peptic ulcer disease.
A Modified Step-Up DC-DC Flyback Converter with Active Snubber for Improved Efficiency

The research on DC-DC power converters has been a matter of interest for years since this type of converter can be used in a wide range of applications. The main research is focused on increasing the converter voltage gain while obtaining a good efficiency and reliability. Among the different DC-DC converters, the flyback topology is well-known and widely used. In this paper, a novel high efficiency modified step-up DC-DC flyback converter is presented. The converter is based on a N-stages flyback converter with parallel connected inputs and series-connected outputs. The use of a single main diode and output capacitor reduces the number of passive elements and allows for a more economical implementation compared with interleaved flyback topologies. High efficiency is obtained by including an active snubber circuit, which returns the energy stored in the leakage inductance of the flyback transformers back to the input power supply. A 4.7 kW laboratory prototype is implemented considering four flyback stages with an input voltage of 96 V and an output voltage of 590 V, obtaining an efficiency of 95%. The converter operates in discontinuous current mode then facilitating the output voltage controller design. Experimental results are presented and discussed.
The comparison of effect of zinc sulphate and zinc oxide nanoparticles on plants

Zinc oxide nanoparticles are one of the most versatile materials, due to their diverse properties, functionalities, and applications. Their potencial in agriculture is also not negligible. The zinc in form of nanoparticles is more available for plants due to its skill to penetrate roots better. In this work we focused on the evaluation and comparison of effect of common zinc source (ZnSO4.7H2O), and zinc in form of nanoparticles (nanoZnO). Our pilot results show that it is very important to deal with the toxicity of zinc in the form of nanoparticles, as this form is most likely to be more toxic to plants than its equivalents in the form of simple inorganic salts.
The Effect of 4 Different Durations of Static Hamstring Stretching on Passive Knee-Extension Range of Motion

Design: Pretest–posttest. Objective: To determine the effect of 4 durations of static hamstring stretching on knee-extension passive range of motion (KE-PROM). Context: Effects of longer (90 and 120 seconds) static hamstring stretching on PROM have not been established relative to more typically recommended 30- or 60-second durations. Subjects: 35 healthy college-age subjects with >20° loss of KE-PROM. Outcome Measure: KE-PROM. Intervention: 5-week program of single daily stretch for 30, 60, 90, or 120 seconds. Results: Static stretching was effective in increasing KE-PROM regardless of stretch duration (P < .0001). A significant improvement was identified in mean PROM for each stretching group, but no difference existed among the 4 stretch-duration groups. The control group’s mean PROM decreased (mean = -3.2°, SD = 1.9), whereas each stretching group increased PROM (means 1.9° to 3.6°). Conclusions: Five weeks of daily static hamstring stretching for 30, 60, 90, or 120 seconds increase KE-PROM. Similar b.
Quantitative phase imaging via a cGAN network with dual intensity images captured under centrosymmetric illumination

We report an end-to-end approach for quantitative phase imaging based on two intensity measurements. In our approach, we sequentially illuminate the thin complex object using two centrosymmetric LEDs whose incident angles are close to the maximum acceptance angle of the objective lens. We then feed the two acquired images to a conditional generative adversarial network (cGAN) to generate the phase image of a complex object. We show that the cGAN is able to directly learn the mapping relationship from the intensity pair to the targeted phase distribution. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is validated using both simulation and experimental data.

On Modelling Hybrid Uncertainty in Information

Abstract : Numerical induction models are considered in this report to be models that aggregate lower-level information into higher-level measures for decision making. Various forms of uncertainty may be present in such models including hybrid uncertainties within the information elements being aggregated. After a review of some existing approaches for representing higher-order uncertainty in information, a new approach is presented to enable greater fidelity of uncertainty representation, and consequently more rigorous uncertainty management in aggregation operations. Several different applications then demonstrate the proposed procedures which have direct relevance to many Defense decision making models where higher-order uncertainty is ubiquitous. The overall objective of these procedures is to extract as much meaning from the input information as possible.
Worker’s well-being. Evidence from the apparel industry in Mexico

ABSTRACT A growing body of research links working environment with employee health and well-being. We argue that greater employee well-being is associated with positive work outcomes, benefits likely vital to business performance. We have expanded the literature on this topic by evaluating these questions within a population of factory workers. To date, studies have examined well-being in the workplace in middle- and low-income countries mostly through the lens of disease and disability or have been restricted to human rights, rather than human well-being in general. This paper connects (1) job resources/work conditions and (2) worker well-being with (3) work outcomes in Mexican apparel factories belonging to the apparel supply chain. Our analysis builds on the first wave of the SHINE Worker Well-Being Survey. We examined links between working conditions, job resources, individual well-being and work outcomes using path analysis within a cross-sectional study comprising approximately 2200 Mexican factory workers. We report that job satisfaction and self-assessed work performance are positively and directly associated with worker well-being. We found that job control, trust, respect and recognition were significant correlates of all examined work outcomes (job satisfaction, work engagement and self-assessed work performance), with significant indirect effects on well-being.
