Authors: Wisudawati Wida , Maryani Diani
Published: February 2024

Ketidaktahuan ibu tentang pentingnya ASI masih sangat rendah yaitu sekitar 42%. Masih banyak ibu yang mengeluh dan putus asa karena air susu yang belum keluar atau tidak lancar. Ketidaklancaran pengeluaran ASI pada hari pertama setelah melahirkan dapat disebabkan oleh kurangnya rangsangan hormon oksitosin dan keadaan psikologis ibu yang sangat berperan dalam kelancaran pengeluaran ASI (Mulyani, 2013). Menurut Widuri (2013), ada beberapa upaya bagi ibu agar berhasil menyusui yaitu salah satunya dengan menyusui sesegera mungkin setelah bayi lahir yaitu diawali dengan IMD dan kontak kulit antara ibu dan bayi. Bayi merasa aman dan puas karena mendapatkan kehangatan dari dekapan ibunya. Ibu yang merasa rileks dan nyaman maka pengeluaran ASI akan berlangsung baik. Refleks hisapan bayi pada puting ibu akan merangsang produksi ASI. Maka dari itu, peneliti ingin mengetahui hubungan pengetahuan dan IMD dengan ASI Ekslusif. Desain dalam penelitian ini adalah rancangan analitik dengan rancangan cross sectional. Penelitian dilakukan di PMB Kota Tangerang pada bulan Mei-Juli tahun 2023. Besar Sampel yang digunakan pada sampel kasus merupakan total sampling sebanyak 44 responden. Hasil penelitian menggambarkan sebagian besar yaitu 50% responden memiliki pengetahuan yang baik mengenai ASI eklsusif dan sebagian besar melewati pelaksanaan IMD pada saat proses persalinan ( 34%). Berdasarkan hasil pengukuran didapatkan hasil uji Chi Square nilai p value <0,05, maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa ada hubungan yang signifikan antara pengetahuan ibu dengan keberhasilan ASI ekslusif dan ada hubungan antara  pelaksaaan IMD dengan keberhasilan ASI ekslusif

The purpose of this is to investigate the consumer buying dynamics in small towns and settlements in United Arab Emirates for the benefit of marketers, manufacturers, policy decision makers, government of UAE and the academic world. This piece of research is to contribute to a deeper understanding of applying the various dynamics of customers in rural market of the entire GCC countries. Particularly, the literature review conducted for this study revealed that very little attention has been paid for consumer buying dynamics in the UAE rural consumers with specific reference to small towns and settlements. The authors used a structured questionnaire consisting of five point Likert scale to collect data from thirteen small towns and settlements: Khor Fakhan, Kalba, Jabal Ali, Dibba - Al Fujairah, Madinat Zayed, Ruwais, Liwa Oasis, Dhaid, Ghayathi, Ar-Rams, Dibba - Al Hisn, Hatta and Al Madam. The population of them range from 11,120 to 39,151. The sample was composed of 2,083 persons from all the chosen thirteen small towns and settlements in United Arab Emirates. The rural customer profile of the United Arab Emirates is diverse, consisting of groups ranging from high-income Emarati nationals to high income expatriates to less affluent foreign workers from various countries. Consequently, customer behaviors, attitudes and preferences vary widely in the country and are often hard to pinpoint (Euromonitor). Burson-Marsteller Arab Youth Survey, which was conducted in 16 Arab countries, showed that nearly half of Arab youth are keen to embrace modernity. Moreover, the study’s findings supported that the numbers were also reflective of the views in Emirati society. The current study results revealed that the rural customers along with the product they consider affordability in terms of price, also think about quality, performance, reliability, brand and other critical aspects Therefore, it is recommended that the products be in line of rationality rather than just making low price appeals. Moreover, the study’s findings emphasized that the rural customers maintain dignity and look for the deals focusing on value for money. Therefore, it is recommended that the lifestyle and value is one of the dominant factors of rural population in UAE.

Digitalisation, Gender, and Training of Employees in the Second Half of Working Life in Germany (Online Appendix)
Authors: Kortmann Lisa Katharina , Stuth Stefan , Simonson Julia
Published: February 2024

Digitalisation places new demands on employees working in changing occupations. To undertake the adaptation to new requirements further training is one central strategy of updating and building new skills – especially for older employees. Digitalisation in the world of work has been shown to affect male and female employees differently. However, little is known about the interrelationship between digitalisation in occupations and training. This gap is addressed by investigating (1) the association of training participation and the extent of digitalisation in their occupations of employees in the second half of working life and (2) whether there is a gender difference in this association. In addition, these questions are investigated regarding the employee’s desire to participate in future training. Using data from the German Ageing Survey, logistic regressions are applied to control for sociodemographic, labour market and work-related characteristics of employees aged 43 to 65 in Germany. Positive associations between a change in the level of digitalisation in occupations and (the desire for) training participation are found. The more pronounced the change in the digitalisation level in occupations, the more female employees seem to be disadvantaged in training participation compared to men.

Published: February 2024

Aspirin, or Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), is renowned for its pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory properties. Recent insights have illuminated its mechanisms and potential applications. Notably, low-dose aspirin reduces heart attack and stroke risks, particularly in high-risk individuals, yet optimal dosing remains under investigation. Another area explores aspirin’s potential in cancer prevention, especially for colon and gastrointestinal cancers, along with emerging roles against conditions like Alzheimer’s, diabetes, and pre-eclampsia. Aspirin’s benefits extend to kidney disease and COVID-19 research due to its anti-inflammatory actions. Stem cell effects are diverse; while enhancing hematopoietic stem cells aids bone marrow transplants, it may inhibit embryonic stem cells in specific contexts. However, challenges encompass resistance, allergies, gastrointestinal effects, and pediatric Reye’s syndrome. Pharmacogenetic studies illuminate how genetic variations impact aspirin metabolism, with enzymes like CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 affecting clearance rates, and markers such as P2RY12 and COX-1 influencing antiplatelet responses. Customized aspirin therapy, guided by genetic profiles, optimizes benefits and minimizes risks. This research underpins personalized medicine, empowering clinicians to enhance treatment precision, efficacy, and safety. As aspirin’s complex advantages and challenges continue to unfold, refined therapeutic strategies will emerge.

Authors: Nordstrand Berg Laila , C. Herring Paula
Published: February 2024

This study investigates how US military veteran students perceive the transition from the military to university and how education facilitates their adaptation to society. US military enlistees are often recruited from populations of lower socioeconomic status, and upon completion of military term, are returning to society disillusioned as to future employment and feeling apart from society. Low self-value and hopelessness haunts these men and women. Veterans are offered support for both education, housing and living expenses after ending service through the GI Bill, to help ease this transitional time back into civilian life. The teaching model to approach teaching this population is grounded in andragogical care and in active facilitation. The findings are based on a case study with interviews of veterans attending universities and earning academic degrees. The main findings indicate that professors who are working as relationship mentors in addition to being academic educators is of high value for creating safe spaces for university-society relationships, engagement, and confidence.

Novel Techniques for Classifying Exotic Spheres in High Dimensions
Authors: Ahmad Imtiaz , Jan Rashid , Nur Alam Md. , Khan Muhammad Nawaz
Published: February 2024

Discrete calculus deals with developing the concepts and techniques of differential and integral calculus in a discrete setting, often using difference equations and discrete function spaces. This paper explores how differential-difference algebra can provide an algebraic framework for advancing discrete calculus. Differential-difference algebra studies algebraic structures equipped with both differential and difference operators. These hybrid algebraic systems unify continuous and discrete analogues of derivatives and shifts. This allows the development of general theorems and properties that cover both settings. In particular, we construct differential-difference polynomial rings and fields over discrete function spaces. We define discrete derivatives and shifts algebraically using these operators. We then study integration, summation formulas, fundamental theorems, and discrete analogues of multivariate calculus concepts from an algebraic perspective. A key benefit is being able to state unified theorems in differential-difference algebra that simultaneously yield results for both the continuous and discrete cases. This provides new tools and insights for discrete calculus using modern algebraic techniques. We also discuss applications of representing discrete calculus problems in differential-difference algebras. This allows bringing to bear algebraic methods and software tools for their solution. Specific examples are provided in areas such as numerical analysis of discrete dynamical systems defined through difference equations. The paper aims to demonstrate the capabilities of differential-difference algebra as a unifying framework for further developing the foundations and applications of discrete calculus. Broader connections to algebraic modeling of discrete physical systems are also discussed.

Loxosceles boqueirao Bertani & Gallão sp. nov. is found in the State of Bahia, in the Serra do Ramalho karst area, it belongs to the rufescens species group, and is closely related to L. cardosoi Bertani, von Schimonsky & Gallão, 2018 and L. carinhanha Bertani, von Schimonsky & Gallão, 2018 from the same karst area. Thus, there are now three species in the Serra do Ramalho karst area closely related, but noticeably distinct morphologically from other species of Loxosceles. Loxosceles planetaria Bertani & Gallão sp. nov. and L. bodoquena Bertani & Gallão sp. nov. are found in the State of Mato Grosso do Sul, in the Serra da Bodoquena karst area. They belong to the gaucho species group and are closely related to L. gaucho Gertsch, 1967. These are the first species of Loxosceles described from this karst area in the State of Mato Grosso do Sul. Loxosceles boqueirao sp. nov. and L. bodoquena sp. nov. bear some troglomorphisms and are, herein, proposed as troglobitic species, whereas L. planetaria sp. nov. is proposed as a troglophilic species. Brazil has now 22 described species of Loxosceles.

Published: February 2024

Wie werden Memes für die Abwertung oder gar Entmenschlichung sozialer Gruppen genutzt? Im Kontext einer zunehmend bildbasierten Online-Kommunikation versprechen gerade Text-Bild-Kombinationen eine besondere Viralität für entsprechende Botschaften: Die aufmerksamkeitsfördernde visuelle Aufmachung kann sie nämlich über die übliche Reichweite hinaustragen. Auf Grundlage einer Zufallsstichprobe untersuchen wir daher erstmals auf einer breiten Datenbasis, wie diskriminierende Memes auf Telegram Anwendung durch rechtsextreme und verschwörungsideologische Akteure finden. Welche fünf Gruppen dabei ins Visier genommen werden, welche (uneindeutigen) Botschaften solche Bilder transportieren und welche stilistischen und persuasiven Elemente sie aufweisen, erfahrt ihr in unserem Fokus-Thema.

This study aims to explore and know human nature, especially the perspective of the Tasik Malaya village community. By using a qualitative descriptive writing method, by obtaining data from observation, direct interviews. Informants in this study were residents of the Tasik Malaya village community including priests and housewives. The research results obtained informationHumans are special creatures, because why? humans are given the potential by the creator in the form of thoughts to act, act and with the potential they already have which can later direct the individual himself to a positive path and be able to regulate and control himself in determining his future destiny. Conclusion: Human behavior in dealing with life, can be a benchmark for good or bad someone in the eyes of society. Attitude reflects our personality. How a person behaves and how he behaves is a form of identity that he has.
Design and Build API-Based Multistore Marketplace Using Agile Methodology
Authors: Fernando Donny , Karyaningsih Dentik
Published: February 2024

The business activities of a company require technology that can drive operational efficiency. Marketplaces have become one of the effective marketing channels today for promoting the company's products and services. To reach a broader market, having more than one store on a marketplace is a choice that many companies currently opt for. However, managing multiple stores on marketplaces is not an efficient management approach. This research is an applied study conducted in one startup company (profitto.co.id) that sells developing furniture components, aiming to provide the implementation of an API-based system integration solution to manage multiple stores on Tokopedia and utilizes the Scrum methodology for software development.
Fissures in education
Authors: Razu I. John Mohan
Published: February 2024

This monograph is located in an uncomfortable place: at an intersection. What I mean is that the roadmap of India’s educational system is at a crossroad. It is cornered at a junction where the traffic lights all of a sudden goes off, and what we see is only the amber keep flickering. Those on four, three and two wheels are totally dismayed and do not know how to navigate, because the road traffic has gone hay way and is in total pandemonium. However, I have used ‘traffic lights’ at a junction as an analogy to explain the maze of lacunas that our system of education is facing and thus being explained in succinct ways as fissures.(Foreword, p. 5)
Consequence of COVID-19 on Cryptocurrency Returns
Authors: Kumar Umesh , Biqing Huang
Published: February 2024

This study scrutinizes the COVID-19 measures and their effect on leading cryptocurrency returns. Our direct measures of COVID-19 show that cryptocurrency returns are significantly influenced by COVID-19 and are most visible throughout pre-vaccination phase. The intraday price movement becomes wider during vaccination period compared to cryptocurrency returns. The findings demonstrate that even negative news of COVID-19 did not deter investors from being optimistic in the pre-vaccination period. Further, COVID-19 impacts on the cryptocurrency market diverge depending on the size of currency once vaccination begins. It reflects a different underlying dynamic process in cryptocurrency trading.
Short term unpredictability of high Reynolds number turbulence - rough dependence on initial data
Authors: Feng Zaichun , Li Y. Charles
Published: February 2024

Short term unpredictability is discovered numerically for high Reynolds number fluid flows under periodic boundary conditions. Furthermore, the abundance of the short term unpredictability is also discovered. These discoveries support our theory that fully developed turbulence is constantly driven by such short term unpredictability.

Authors: Eddine Ghouraf Djamel , Abdellatif Naceri , Abdelkader Sayeh
Published: February 2024

in this paper, Meta-heuristic techniques using genetic algorithms GA and particle swarm optimization PSO to tuning optimal design of power system stabilizer PSS proposed. This latter have been used for many years to add damping to electromechanical oscillations of power system, Based on this idea we have proposed multiobjective function composed with tow function, first maximize stability margin by increasing the damping factors while minimizing the real parts of the eigenvalues. Simulation results to comparative study between genetic algorithms and particle swarm optimization obtained by our realized graphical user interface (GUI) proved the efficiency of PSS optimized by genetic algorithms in comparison with Particle Swarm Optimization, showing stable   system   responses   almost   insensitive   to   large parameter variations and under different operating regime (under-excited, nominal and over excited regime).
Hexapod Robot Movement Control for Uneven Terrain
Authors: Prasetio Yusuf , Widodo Nuryono Satya
Published: February 2024

Hexapod robot is a robot that has 6 legs with joints or structures that resemble insect legs. This study uses the inverse kinematic method with the aim of finding points and effectors of the robot's legs that will make the robot's legs pass through uneven obstacles such as uneven flor, stairs, bolong-bolong obstacles, bolong-non-obvious obstacles and non-objective obstacles. This inverse kinematic is accessed with the Open Cm 9.04 microcontroller to control the dynamixel servo on the robot leg. The results of testing the robot's movement using inverse kinematics have succeeded in overcoming uneven obstacles using the inverse kinematic method. For testing the stability of the robot it is still not stable enough because the mechanical part of the foot is still not precise. The conclusion of the study, from 6 trials that average and uneven obstacles were obtained in the range of 85% - 95%. The inverse kinematic method using a proximity sensor on the front of the robot, the average success that can be obtained is in the range of 80% - 90%.
