Pemanfaatan teknologi informasi membantu dunia pendidikan dalam mengolah data untuk mendukung pengambilan keputusan terhadap permasalahan yang sedang dihadapi. Salah satu upaya untuk meningkatkan kualitas lulusan dalam bidang pendidikan di perguruan tinggi adalah melalui Program Kreativitas Mahasiswa (PKM) yang diselenggarakan oleh Direktorat Jenderal Pendidikan Tinggi. PKM merupakan upaya yang dikembangkan untuk menumbuhkan, mewadahi, dan mewujudkan ide kreatif serta inovatif mahasiswa, hal ini dapat mengantarkan mahasiswa menjadi pribadi yang tahu dan taat aturan, kreatif, inovatif dan obektif kooperatif dalam membangun keragaman intelektual. Sejak awal terselenggarakannya PKM di Institut Teknologi Telkom Purwokerto, proses bisnis belum sepenuhnya didukung oleh teknologi informasi. Pengumpulan berkas dalam bentuk hard copy mengakibatkan adanya penumpukan data, dan segala informasi terkait kebutuhan data belum mempunyai tempat penyimpanan yang efisien jika sewaktu-waktu pengguna membutuhkan data dengan cepat, selain itu juga adanya penyimpanan data dapat membantu pengelola untuk menghindari adanya redundancy data. Hal tersebut tentunya dapat menghambat proses bisnis yang ada baik dari sisi pengelola maupun sisi mahasiswa. Adanya penelitian ini bertujuan untuk merancang sebuah sistem yang terkomputerisasi agar proses bisnis dapat berjalan dan terdokumentasikan dengan baik dan efektif dengan menggunakan metode Extreme Programming (XP). Metode XP melakukan pendekatan secara sistematis dan urut mulai dari level planning, design, coding dan testing. Metode ini memberikan sebuah fleksibilitas kepada user dengan melibatkan user secara langsung. Hasil penelitian berupa rancangan sistem informasi berbasis website yang dapat memudahkan pengguna dalam menjalankan proses bisnis, dengan didukung blackbox testing yang mendapatkan hasil valid/sesuai.

Listening-with the subaltern: Anthropocene, Pluriverse and more-than-human agency
Authors: Carvalho António , Riquito Mariana
Published: March 2022

The Anthropocene brings to the fore the need to foster ontologies that reject the modern “one-world world” (Law 2015) model, characterized by extractivism, dualism and human exceptionalism, requiring the enactment of pluriverses (de la Cadena & Blaser 2018) that recognize the heterogeneous clamor of human and non-human agency. As an attempt to listen-with those oppressed and silenced by the modern extractivist paradigm, in this paper, we propose the mobilization of relational, dialogic and nondualistic methodologies that attend to subaltern and more-than-human worlds. Drawing on a variety of sources – such as the Parliament of Things, the Council of All Beings, the Pedagogy of the Oppressed, meditative and artistic practices –, our article speculatively engages with affective, situated, hybrid and counter hegemonic methodologies that articulate contemplative practices, the arts, more-than-human agency and local communities, recognizing that politics, aesthetics and affect are intimately entwined. Our experimental endeavour is centred on three case studies that encapsulate some of the socio-political and technological tensions of our current zeitgeist – wildfires, geoengineering, and lithium mining –, speculating on how pluriversal methodologies can bring to the fore the many worlds silenced by the modern “one-world world”.
Sobre la recepción de Las madres no de Katixa Agirre
Maternidad y narración en los sistemas literarios vasco y castellano
Authors: Pérez Isasi Santiago , Sampedro Aiora
Published: March 2022

This article analyses the positive reception of Katixa Agirre’s novel Las madres no. In order to contextualise these considerations, we will briefly present the writer’s career up to this point, and we will offer a brief narrative analysis of the novel. Finally, we will trace some possible explanations for the favourable reception of the book Las madres no among Spanish-speaking readers and critics: the originality of the text and the chosen subgenre (the crime thriller); the recent boom of publications on the topic of motherhood in Spanish and Latin-American recent literatures; and also the role played by the publishing house, Tránsito Libros, an independent and fairly young company with a strong presence in social networks which has attracted some enthusiastic followers within the Spanish readership. The combination of these different elements may explain why Las madres no has received more attention than other works by the same author, and by other Basque writers who have been translated into Spanish.
Karmele Jaio (1970), una escritora vasca
Explorar la masculinidad feminista
Authors: Gabantxo-Uriagereka Miren
Published: March 2022

This interview with the Basque writer Karmele Jaio (1970), whose novel Aitaren etxea (My Father’s House) received the Euskadi Prize for Literature in 2020, brings to the fore her preoccupation with contemporary masculinity: the way it is now, and the way it should be. Taking the patriarchy down and moving society toward feminism demand the concept of masculinity be rebuilt. Things are further complicated by the fact that the struggle for the Basque nation put women’s advancement needs on hold – and these women and their needs are Karmele Jaio’s novels’ ultimate protagonists.

Published: March 2022

Until February 2022, the pandemic has led to the death of seven million. Anti-COVID-19 policies in Mexico are distinguished by individual distancing rather than confinement recommended, but not imposed by the State. In this scenario, the pandemic has claimed the lives of 300,000, although the government recognizes another 300,000 related to atypical pneumonia. The objective of the present work was to specify a model for the study of attitudes towards the effects of the pandemic on the environment. An exploratory, cross-sectional and correlational work was carried out with 100 students, considering their confinement and intensive use of electronic technologies, devices and networks. A factorial structure was found that explained 35% of the total variance, although the research design limited the results to the study setting, suggesting the extension of the work towards the contrast of the proposed model.

Published: March 2022

Выявлена цереброваскулярная активность нового синтезированного соединения никотиноил-L-пролина в условиях острой церебральной ишемии, вызванной окклюзией левой сонной артерии у крыс, и хронической ишемии мозга, вызванной ограничением двигательной активности животных — гипокинезией. Методом лазерной допплеровской флоуметрии установлено, что внутрибрюшинное введение исследуемого соединения в дозе 10 мг/кг стимулирует локальный мозговой кровоток, восстанавливая кровоснабжение мозга крыс более чем на 40 %, как в условиях острой ишемии мозга, так и на фоне хронической ишемизации мозговой ткани, вызванной ограничением двигательной активности животных в течение 15 дней. Регистрация системного артериального давления крыс неинвазивным методом «Tail-cuff» показала, что цереброваскулярные эффекты никотиноил-L-пролина не сопровождаются изменениями показателей системного артериального давления и частоты сердечных сокращений у животных.

Authors: Кайшева Нелли Шаликовна , Кайшев Александр Шаликович , Ларский Михаил Владимирович
Published: March 2022

На основе аминокислот жидкой фазы послеспиртовой кукурузной барды разработан способ получения бетаинов гидрохлоридов (с добавлением пепсина) в форме субстанции и таблеток, предназначенных в качестве лекарственного средства пищеварительного, ферментного действия. Впервые использована в качестве фармацевтического сырья послеспиртовая кукурузная барда, более богатая аминокислотами, более масштабная и доступная, чем традиционное сырье — меласса. Из аминокислот барды (глицина, глутаминовой кислоты, аргинина, аланина, аспарагиновой кислоты, тирозина, гистидина, серина, валина, лейцина, лизина, треонина) полусинтезом получены бетаины гидрохлориды с высокими выходом (5,7 % к жидкой фазе) и количественным содержанием (99 %). Для обеспечения оптимальных фармацевтико-технологических свойств таблеток модифицированы их состав и технология. Полученные таблетки практически нетоксичны, по специфическому действию не уступают аналогу — «Ацидин-пепсину». Проведенные исследования позволяют решить проблему импортозамещения зарубежного лекарственного средства и наладить производство из доступного отечественного сырья.

Se utilizaron 33 machos asignados a tres grupos según la edad: Adultos (31.4 meses); Jóvenes (18.2 meses) y cabritos (8.5 meses). Los jóvenes y cabritos presentaron mayor número de eyaculaciones (P < 0.05) respecto a adultos. Volumen de eyaculado, motilidad y viabilidad del semen refrigerado, motilidad y viabilidad del semen congelado no fueron diferentes (P > 0.05) entre grupos. La motilidad del semen fresco con la viabilidad de semen fresco, concentración espermática, motilidad y viabilidad de semen refrigerado y edad se correlacionaron (P < 0.01). Asimismo, el diámetro testicular, edad y peso vivo tuvieron una alta correlación (P < 0.001) con la concentración espermática. Adultos y jóvenes tuvieron menor muerte de espermatozoides post-criopreservación. Se recomienda utilizar machos adultos o jóvenes para la conservación del semen a través de la criopreservación.
Inconsistency of the Principles of Writing Variety on the WhatsApp Instant Messaging Application
Authors: Rosadi Nicky , Dinihari Yulian
Published: March 2022

This study aims to discuss the inconsistency of the principle of writing style that occurs in the WhatsApp instant messaging application. The method used in this study is a qualitative method using descriptive analysis techniques. The object in this study is the text of the conversation on the WhatsApp instant messaging application which is taken randomly and then documented in the form of images so that the chat can be recorded visually. The results of the study show that, there is an inconsistency in the principle of writing style in the WhatsApp instant messaging application which causes this form of variety to not be fully said to be a type of writing. This inconsistency is seen at the time of opening the chat, as much as 100% of the existing data, the sender of the message uses a written variety with intact principles. However, when a reply is received and a conversation occurs, 55,7% of the data shows that the principle of writing style is no longer fully applied. It was found that the sender of the message answered by using a sentence structure that was incomplete and there was an omission of elements, both subject, predicate, object, and description. In addition, it was also found 36% data showing that in the delivery, the sender of the message sometimes uses certain emoticons as an effort to build context, which in the spoken variety is usually accommodated by gestures and facial expressions. In this regard, the researcher concludes that the variety that appears in the WhatsApp instant messaging application can no longer be said to be a written variety. Due to the inconsistency of applying the principles of written and spoken variety, the authors suggest that the variety that appears in this instant messaging application is called the inlis variety.

Published: March 2022

Nature (one's genes) and nurture (one's environment) jointly contribute to the formation and evolution of health and human capital over the life cycle. This complex interplay between genes and environment can be estimated and quantified using genetic information readily available in a growing number of social science data sets. To help the novice reader interested in understanding individual decision making, public policy, and inequality using genetic data, we introduce essential genetic terminology, review the literature in economics and social-science genetics---with a focus on the interplay between genes and environment---and discuss policy implications and future prospects of the use of genetic data in the social sciences and economics.

Photosynthetically Active Radiation Decomposition Models for Agrivoltaic Systems Applications
Authors: Ma Lu Silvia , Zainali Sebastian , Campana Pietro , Stridh Bengt , Avelin Anders , Amaducci Stefano , Colauzzi Michele
Published: March 2022

Decomposition models of solar irradiance estimate the magnitude of diffuse horizontal irradiance from global horizontal irradiance. These two radiation components are well-known to be essential for the prediction of solar photovoltaic systems performance. In open-field agrivoltaic systems, that is the dual use of land for both agricultural activities and solar power conversion, cultivated crops receive an unequal amount of direct, diffuse and reflected photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) depending on the area they are growing due to the non-homogenously shadings caused by the solar panels installed (above the crops or vertically mounted). It is known that PAR is more efficient for canopy photosynthesis under conditions of diffuse PAR than direct PAR per unit of total PAR. For this reason, it is fundamental to estimate the diffuse PAR component in agrivoltaic systems studies to properly predict the crop yield. Since PAR is the part of electromagnetic radiation in the waveband from 400 to 700 nm that can be used for photosynthesis by the crops, several stand-alone decomposition models of solar irradiance are selected in this study to partition PAR into direct and diffuse. These models are applied and validated in three locations in Sweden: Lanna, Hyltemossa and Norunda, using the coefficients stated on the original publications of the models and locally fitted coefficients. Results showed weaker performances in all stand-alone models for non-locally fitted coefficients (nRMSE ranging from 29% to 95%). However, performances improve with re-parameterization, reaching highest nRMSE of 37.94% in Lanna. YANG2 decomposition model is the best-performing one, reaching lowest nRMSE of 24.31% in Norunda applying re-estimated coefficients. Country level sets of coefficients for the best-performing models, YANG2 and STARKE, are given after parameterization using joined data of the three locations in Sweden. These Sweden-fitted models are tested and showing nRMSE of 25.56% (YANG2) and 28.36% (STARKE). These results can be used to perform estimations of PAR diffuse component in Sweden where measurements are not available, and the overall methodology can be similarly applied to other countries.
Testing the whole number interference hypothesis: contributions of inhibitory control and whole number knowledge to fraction understanding
Authors: Leib Elena R , Starr Ariel , Younger Jessica Wise , Consortium Project iLead , Bunge Silvia A. , Uncapher Melina , Rosenberg-Lee Miriam
Published: March 2022

The present study tests two predictions stemming from the hypothesis that a source of difficulty with rational numbers is interference from whole number magnitude knowledge. First, inhibitory control should be an independent predictor of fraction understanding, even after controlling for working memory. Second, if the source of interference is whole number knowledge, then it should hinder fraction understanding. These predictions were tested in a racially and socioeconomically diverse sample of US children (N=765; 337 female) in grades 3 (ages 8-9), 5 (ages 10-11), and 7 (ages 12-13) who completed a battery of computerized tests. The fraction comparison task included problems with both shared components (e.g., 3/5 > 2/5) and distinct components (e.g., 2/3 > 5/9), and problems that were congruent (e.g., 5/6 > 3/4) and incongruent (e.g., 3/4 > 5/7) with whole number knowledge. Inhibitory control predicted fraction comparison performance over and above working memory across component and congruency types. Whole number knowledge did not hinder performance and instead positively predicted performance for fractions with shared components. These results highlight a role for inhibitory control in rational number understanding and suggest that its contribution may be distinct from inhibiting whole number magnitude knowledge.
Estimating the true cost of garden-pathing: A computational model of latent cognitive processes
Authors: Paape Dario , Vasishth Shravan
Published: March 2022

What is the processing cost of being garden-pathed by a temporary syntactic ambiguity? We argue that comparing average reading times in garden-path versus non-garden-path sentences is not enough to answer this question. Trial-level contaminants such as inattention, the fact that garden-pathing may occur non-deterministically in the ambiguous condition, and “triage” (rejecting the sentence without reanalysis; Fodor & Inoue, 2000) lead to systematic underestimates of the true cost of garden-pathing. Furthermore, the pure garden-path effect due to encountering an unexpected word needs to be separated from the additional cost of syntactic reanalysis. To get more realistic estimates for the individual processing costs of garden-path surprisal and syntactic reanalysis, we implement a novel computational model that includes trial-level contaminants as probabilistically occurring latent cognitive processes. The model shows good predictive fit to existing reading-time and judgment data. Furthermore, the latent-process approach captures differences between NP/Z garden-path sentences and RRC garden-path sentences: The NP/Z garden path occurs nearly deterministically but can be mostly eliminated by adding a comma. By contrast, the RRC garden path occurs with a lower probability, but disambiguation via semantic plausibility is not always effective.

Determinants of Maternal Health Care Utilization in Nepal
Authors: Karki Renuka Kumari
Published: March 2022

This study aims to analyze the determinants of maternal health care utilization in Nepal. Maternal health still remains a public health problem in Nepal though it has been improving in the last decade since the number of women seeking antenatal care and opting for institutional delivery has increased. This study is based on Nepal Demographic and Health Survey data of 2016. The sample size consists of 3998 married women aged 15-49 years who had a live birth in the five years preceding the survey. Bivariate analysis is used to examine the association between adequate ANC visits and institutional delivery. A strong association is observed between women’s higher level of education and women involved in non-agricultural occupation with receipt of antenatal care and choosing of institutional delivery. The study findings conclude that there is a significant gap among different sub-groups of women in Nepal in the utilization maternal health care based on factors like women’s age, place of residence, level of education, occupation and wealth status. In order to address the existing gap and variation in ANC service utilization, particular attention should be given to women from less education, poor wealth quintile, living in rural areas, utilization of services among older age group. The results of this study put forward the need for efforts from government bodies and agencies in implementation of appropriate policies and programs to bring an improvement in the use of maternal health care services in Nepal.

This study was designed to compare the effect of two types of viral hepatitis A and E (HAVand HEV) on liver functions in Iraqi individuals by the measurement of biochemical changesassociated with hepatitis.The study performed on 58 HEV and 66 HAV infected patients compared with 28 healthysubjects. The measured biochemical tests include total serum bilirubin, serum transminases (ALTand AST) alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT).The study showed that adolescent and young adults (17-29) years, were mostly affected byHEV while children (5-12) years were frequently affected by HAV. The severity of liver damage inHEV patients was higher than HAV patients as a result of high serum transaminase levels.Patients with HEV were associated with cholestasis due to high serum level of ALP and GGTcompared to HAV patients.

Civil age estimation is part of the process of individual identification for judicial purpose. It must be applicable for dead bodies as well as for living persons. Age can be estimated through the analysis of the permanent teeth eruption process. In the present study, this process was analysed based on the Bengston’s revisited stages illustrated by AlQhatani et al. in 2010. They were used to build a linear regression model for age estimation of children. This model was built on a sample composed of 191 orthopantomographs of children aged from 9 to 19.9 years old. The created model allowed the elaboration of a formula for civil age estimation based on the most relevant teeth groups associated to their eruption stages. The estimated age showed a good correlation with civil age (R2: 0.74), and a good accuracy rate (57% at +/- 12 months and 75% at +/- 18 months). Despite what was expected, sex was not correlated with age and was discarded from the analysis.

OBJECTIVE

The aim of this study was to predict set-shifting deterioration after resection of low-grade glioma.

METHODS

The authors retrospectively analyzed a bicentric series of 102 patients who underwent surgery for low-grade glioma. The difference between the completion times of the Trail Making Test parts B and A (TMT B-A) was evaluated preoperatively and 3–4 months after surgery. High dimensionality of the information related to the surgical cavity topography was reduced to a small set of predictors in four different ways: 1) overlap between surgical cavity and each of the 122 cortical parcels composing Yeo’s 17-network parcellation of the brain; 2) Tractotron: disconnection by the cavity of the major white matter bundles; 3) overlap between the surgical cavity and each of Yeo’s networks; and 4) disconets: signature of structural disconnection by the cavity of each of Yeo’s networks. A random forest algorithm was implemented to predict the postoperative change in the TMT B-A z-score.

RESULTS

The last two network-based approaches yielded significant accuracies in left-out subjects (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC] approximately equal to 0.8, p approximately equal to 0.001) and outperformed the two alternatives. In single tree hierarchical models, the degree of damage to Yeo corticocortical network 12 (CC 12) was a critical node: patients with damage to CC 12 higher than 7.5% (cortical overlap) or 7.2% (disconets) had much higher risk to deteriorate, establishing for the first time a causal link between damage to this network and impaired set-shifting.

CONCLUSIONS

The authors’ results give strong support to the idea that network-level approaches are a powerful way to address the lesion-symptom mapping problem, enabling machine learning–powered individual outcome predictions.

Published: March 2022

OBJECTIVE

IDH-mutant diffuse low-grade gliomas (dLGGs; WHO grade 2) are often considered to have a more indolent course. In particular, in patients with 1p19q codeleted oligodendrogliomas, survival can be very long. Therefore, extended follow-up in clinical studies of IDH-mutant dLGG is needed. The authors’ primary aim was to determine results after a minimum 10-year follow-up in two hospitals advocating different surgical policies. In one center early resection was favored; in the other center an early biopsy and wait-and-scan approach was the dominant management. In addition, the authors present survival and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in stratified groups of patients with IDH-mutant astrocytoma and oligodendroglioma.

METHODS

The authors conducted a retrospective, population-based, parallel cohort study with extended long-term follow-up. The inclusion criteria were histopathological diagnosis of IDH-mutant supratentorial dLGG from 1998 through 2009 in patients aged 18 years or older. Follow-up ended January 1, 2021; therefore, all patients had primary surgery more than 10 years earlier. In region A, a biopsy and wait-and-scan approach was favored, while early resections were advocated in region B. Regional referral practice ensured population-based data, since referral to respective centers was based strictly on the patient’s residential address. Previous data from EQ-5D-3L, European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) QLQ-C30, and EORTC BN20 questionnaires were reanalyzed with respect to the current selection of IDH-mutant dLGG and to molecular subgroups. The prespecified primary endpoint was long-term regional comparison of overall survival. Secondarily, between-group differences in long-term HRQOL measures were explored.

RESULTS

Forty-eight patients from region A and 56 patients from region B were included. Early resection was performed in 17 patients (35.4%) from region A compared with 53 patients (94.6%) from region B (p < 0.001). Characteristics at baseline were otherwise similar between cohorts. Overall survival was 7.5 years (95% CI 4.1–10.8) in region A compared with 14.6 years (95% CI 11.5–17.7) in region B (p = 0.04). When stratified according to molecular subgroups, there was only a statistically significant survival benefit in favor of early resection for patients with astrocytomas. The were no apparent differences in the different HRQOL measures between cohorts.

CONCLUSIONS

In an extended follow-up of patients with IDH-mutant dLGGs, early resection was associated with a sustained and clinically relevant survival benefit. The survival benefit was not counteracted by any detectable reduction in HRQOL.
The utility of congenital cardiac status to predict endoscopic third ventriculostomy and ventriculoperitoneal shunt failure in hydrocephalic infants

Published: March 2022

OBJECTIVE

The effect of congenital cardiac status on endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) and ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS) failure in hydrocephalic infants is unknown. Because cardiac status in infants can impact central venous pressure (CVP), it is possible that congenital heart disease (CHD) and congenital cardiac anomalies may render these cerebrospinal fluid diversion interventions more susceptible to failure. Correspondingly, the aim of this study was to determine how CHD and congenital cardiac anomalies may impact the failure of these initial interventions.

METHODS

A retrospective review of the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) database was conducted. Infants (aged < 1 year) with known congenital cardiac status managed with either ETV or VPS were included. Quantitative data were compared using either parametric or nonparametric methods, and failure rates were modeled using univariable and multivariable regression analyses.

RESULTS

A total of 18,763 infants treated with ETV or VPS for hydrocephalus were identified in our search, with ETV used to treat 7657 (41%) patients and VPS used to treat 11,106 (59%). There were 6722 (36%) patients who presented with CHD at admission, and a total of 25 unique congenital cardiac anomalies were detected across the cohort. Overall, the most common anomaly was patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in 4990 (27%) patients, followed by atrial septal defect (ASD) in 2437 (13%) patients and pulmonary hypertension in 810 (4%) patients. With respect to initial intervention failure, 3869 (21%) patients required repeat surgical intervention during admission. This was significantly more common in the ETV group than the VPS group (36% vs 10%, p < 0.01). In both the ETV and VPS groups, CHD (p < 0.01), including all congenital cardiac anomalies, was an independent and significant predictor of failure. ASD (p < 0.01) and PDA (p < 0.01) both significantly predicted ETV failure, and PDA (p < 0.01) and pulmonary hypertension (p = 0.02) both significantly predicted VPS failure.

CONCLUSIONS

These results indicate that congenital cardiac status predicts ETV and VPS failure in patients with infantile hydrocephalus. The authors hypothesized that this finding was primarily due to changes in CVP; however, this may not be completely universal across both interventions and all congenital cardiac anomalies. Future studies about optimization of congenital cardiac status with ETV and VPS are required to understand the practical significance of these findings.
