Leveraging big data analytics for enhanced healthcare insurance: A new computational approach to efficiency and cost reduction
Authors: Lakshmi Narasimhan Srinivasagopalan
Published: December 2024

Healthcare insurance systems, especially in regions like India, face persistent challenges in cost management, resource allocation, and the timely processing of claims and data. This paper introduces an innovative data-driven approach to healthcare insurance that harnesses Big Data Analytics combined with a novel analytical framework designed for greater operational efficiency. We propose a hybrid method integrating Set Theory, MapReduce, Association Rule Mining, and MongoDB to create a robust model for healthcare insurance data analytics. Our method, developed to analyze large datasets accurately, aims to reduce processing delays and enhance decision-making by identifying patterns in patient claims and provider submissions. A prototype was developed using Java and evaluated on data from the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) in India, achieving an accuracy rate of 98.3%, a notable improvement over existing models. The results demonstrate significant reductions in delays within data processing, streamlining both resource flow and data management. This model not only enhances data accuracy but also contributes to a more sustainable healthcare financing structure, marking a step forward in aligning healthcare services with modern technological advances.

Published: December 2024

Age estimation using the radiographic method is a simple and non-invasive method that is suitable for age estimation because it can provide information about tooth maturity and morphological changes related to increasing age and is feasible to do in both living and dead persons. The maxillary central incisor teeth are selected for age estimation because it has a single root, large pulp and tends to present in old age. This study aimed to estimate age based on the Kvaal method on the maxillary central incisors using dental radiographs. This is an analytic observational study using 46 samples of dental radiographs of maxillary central incisors. The measurements were based on the Kvaal method, analyzing the pulp/tooth ratio and then substituted to linear regression to obtain the biological age. The difference between chronological age and biological age about 1.76 years. Kvaal method on the maxillary central incisors using dental is reliable for age estimation with the difference between chronological age and biological age about 1.76 years.
Employing AWS cloud technologies for enhanced scalability in data modeling: A comparative analysis of relational versus dimensional strategies
Authors: Rama Krishna Jujjavarapu
Published: December 2024

This paper provides a detailed comparative analysis of relational and dimensional data modeling strategies, utilizing AWS Cloud technologies to enhance scalability and performance. Relational data models are traditionally used for transactional systems, while dimensional models are more suited for analytical processing and business intelligence tasks. In this study, we used Amazon Redshift and AWS Glue to test the scalability of both strategies on large datasets. We evaluated the performance of each model by comparing query execution times, storage efficiency, and data accessibility. Results showed that dimensional modeling outperformed relational models in terms of query speed, with a 40% improvement in execution time for complex business intelligence queries. However, relational models demonstrated better efficiency in managing transactional data with a lower error margin. By leveraging AWS technologies, both models scaled efficiently, but dimensional models provided more flexibility in accommodating growth in data volume. This paper concludes that AWS cloud technologies can significantly improve the scalability of both relational and dimensional data models, but the choice of model should align with the specific data processing needs of the organization. This comparison provides practical insights into the strengths and weaknesses of each strategy, helping businesses optimize their data management processes.

Authors: Tantiana  , Aginta Gracia Shallomitha  , Salsabilla Eliya Andaru
Published: December 2024

Background: Risk level of caries in Indonesia is relatively high. Thus, preventive measures are needed to overcome ongoing plaque and caries problems. One of the steps that can be taken in preventing plaque and caries in early childhood is through topical fluoride with aloe vera extract.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to find out more regarding the effect of topical fluoride with aloe vera extract on frequency of plaque and caries occurrence in early childhood. Methods: The method used in this study is systematic literature review. The sources used in the systematic literature review are published sources and are recognized both nationally and internationally and can be accessed through PubMed, ResearchGate, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect.
Results: Topical fluoride with aloe vera extract can prevent caries because fluoride works by inhibiting demineralization, increasing remineralization, increasing enamel resistance to acid attack, and reacting with hydroxyapatite to form fluorapatite. Aloe vera also contains anthraquinones, saponins, and flavonoids which have antibacterial properties and can dissolve lipoproteins in bacterial cell membranes. The topical fluoride preparation used is in the form of a gel with a concentration of 12.300 to 12.500 ppm and is used 4 minutes every 3 months and is not overused because it can cause fluorosis.
Conclusion: The use of topical fluoride in combination with aloe vera extract has a considerable success rate as a preventive measure in preventing caries in early childhood.

Segregation concepts and using generalized diversity indices in environmental communities
Authors: Gebriel M. Shamia  , Ala Eddin Alshareef
Published: December 2024

The concept of segregation has received less attention in ecology. Species diversity is a concept that includes the number of species (the total number of possible species) in the community, their abundance, and the individuals who are divided among the species, for which biodiversity is generally considered in three dimensions: within communities (α-diversity), between or among communities (β-diversity), and in the total dataset (γ-diversity). Recently, Shamia proposed using an improved generalized diversity index, which includes special cases of MacArthur's and Hill’s indices. Such an index is easy to interpret when all species have equal even abundances resulting in an equivalent number to refer to the output in the community. index, when community weights are unequal relative abundances, has been applied to real data for comparing the index's performance under the segregation concept. Such measure for different sites gives meaningful results of multiplicative partitioning.

Islamic World View : Perbandingan Ekonomi Islam dan Ekonomi Konvensional
Authors: Wijayanto Baskoro
Published: December 2024

Islamic World View (pandangan hidup Islam) merupakan paradigma yang berakar pada nilai-nilai tauhid, keadilan, dan keseimbangan, yang menjadi landasan utama sistem ekonomi Islam. Ekonomi Islam dan ekonomi konvensional sering kali dibandingkan karena keduanya memiliki prinsip-prinsip yang sangat berbeda dalam menjalankan sistem perekonomian. Ekonomi Islam berlandaskan pada nilai-nilai moral, etika, dan hukum Islam, sedangkan ekonomi konvensional lebih mengutamakan efisiensi dan keuntungan, seringkali tanpa memperhatikan aspek moral dan sosial. Dengan demikian, Ekonomi Islam menawarkan paradigma ekonomi yang relevan bagi masyarakat global yang membutuhkan sistem yang lebih adil dan etis.

Türk ve Japon ütopyaları: Yurda Dönüş veya Yurdun Kaybı
Authors: Akdemir Nuray
Published: December 2024

Ütopya, İngiliz yazar ve devlet adamı Thomas More’un 1516 yılında yayımlanan Utopia adlı eseriyle edebiyatta bir tür olarak ilk kez ortaya çıkmıştır. More’un 16. yüzyılda İngiliz toplumunun sosyal, ekonomik ve siyasal yaşamındaki sorunlarına eleştirel bir yaklaşım getirerek, tamamen rasyonel sınırlar içerisinde alternatif bir toplum modeli önerdiği Utopia tarzında bir roman modernleşme süreçlerinin başladığı Tanzimat ve Meiji Dönemleri öncesi Türk ve Japon edebiyatlarında yazılmamıştır. Bu türde romanlar her iki edebiyatta da Batının yoğun etkisi altında modernleşme dönemlerinin yaşandığı 19. yüzyılda yazılmaya başlamıştır. Bu dönemde her iki ulusta da ilk çevirilerin özellikle Batı edebiyatından ütopyaların olması dikkat çekicidir. Bu ütopyalar hem Türkiye’de hem de Japonya’da başta ideal modern bir toplum inşası için entelektüel araçlar olarak düşünülse de zaman içinde Batı ütopyalarının temel ilkelerini ve ideallerini, kendi kültürel ve tarihsel bağlamlarına uygun bir şekilde dönüştürmüşlerdir. Bu bağlamda Haruo Satō’nun Güzel Şehir ve Memduh Şevket Esendal’ın Yurda Dönüş ütopyaları incelenerek, her iki eserin kendi ulusal kimlikleri ve toplumsal dinamikleri çerçevesinde Batı ütopyalarının nasıl adapte edildiği ve yeniden şekillendirildiği analiz edilecektir. Satō ve Esendal, kendi kültürel bağlamlarını dikkate alarak, modernleşme sürecindeki toplumlarına yönelik eleştirilerini ve ideal toplum modellerini sunmuşlardır.

Исследовано совместное действие производных андростена и УФ-облучения на опухолевые клетки и фибробласты легких линии Wi-38. При действии УФ-облучения в дозе 27 мДж/см2 в течение 30 мин наблюдалось подавление пролиферации нормальных клеток на 18 %, а опухолевых клеток HeLa — на 50 %. Производные андростена повышали жизнеспособность как интактных, так и облученных фибробластов. Этот эффект не связан с их прямой антирадикальной активностью, как показано в АБТС-тесте. На опухолевых клетках HeLa стероиды оказывали цитотоксическое действие, а УФ-облучение усиливало его почти в 2 раза. Обнаруженное цитопротекторное действие стероидов на нормальные клетки и химиосенсибилизирующее действие на опухолевые клетки может служить предпосылкой для создания эффективного защитного средства от повреждающего электромагнитного излучения на основе производных андростена.
JUSTIFICATION OF THE CROSS-CULTURAL MODEL OF ORGANIZATION PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT
Authors: KUDRIAVTSEVA O.
Published: December 2024

The work substantiates the cross-cultural MAPE model of the organization's personnel management (Mastering – Antimobbing – Psychoanalysis – Education), which allows reducing the negative, especially mobbing, effects of cross-cultural differentiation of the company's personnel. The model creates conditions for effective intra-organizational cross-cultural transfer of knowledge, skills, and competencies through an interconnected synthesis of mentoring, group corporate education, and intra-firm psychoanalytic counseling. The main directions of the interrelationship of the elements of the proposed cross-cultural MAPE model of personnel management are determined, in particular between intra-organizational mentoring, corporate education, psychoanalytic counseling of personnel and the mentoring system. Its compliance with the principles of rational creation of models of cross-cultural personnel management of modern companies is highlighted. The technology for introducing the cross-cultural MAPE model of personnel management into the activities of a modern organization has been developed, which includes such stages as a comprehensive analysis of the feasibility and main priority areas of implementing the MAPE model into the work of companies, an assessment of the general financial possibilities regarding the resource provision of the model, a rational organization of internal mentoring , psychoanalytic counseling and corporate education, ensuring the consistency of the elements of the MAPE model, creating mechanisms to counteract the opportunism of managers during the implementation of the model and providing "feedback" with grassroots groups of personnel, as well as control and evaluation of the socio-economic effectiveness of the implementation of this model.

One of the components of the successful operation of the enterprise and its competitiveness is efficiency. It mainly depends on the level of staff efficiency. Tracking this aspect of the business is critical to the success of the enterprise. That is why the question of monitoring the effectiveness of the use of personnel is relevant.
To implement the goals of the article, the following methods were used: information on the state of research in the field of effective human resource management was analyzed and synthesized. With the help of a systematic and information-logical approach, the actual directions for improving the evaluation and monitoring of the effectiveness of the use of the company's personnel have been determined. In the course of the research, analytical methods and graphical methods and the synthesis method were also widely used to build a structural scheme of stages and an algorithm for monitoring the effectiveness of personnel use.
The article further developed the aspects of evaluating the efficiency of the use of labor resources, which, unlike the existing ones, include aspects of the integration of technologies into monitoring processes, the development of soft skills and the impact of the working environment on the health and well-being of employees. In addition, the structural diagram of the stages and the monitoring algorithm received further development, which, unlike the existing ones, have a more systematic nature and take into account the possibility of selecting assessment and monitoring tools depending on the monitoring stages, categories of personnel and divisions of the enterprise.
The proposed improvements will optimize work processes; make informed decisions regarding hiring, firing, professional development, resource allocation, etc.; increase employee motivation; ensure the quality of products or services; satisfy the needs of customers and increase their loyalty by fast and high-quality performance of tasks; increase the company's profit.
The obtained results, consisting in the development of a block diagram of stages and an algorithm for monitoring the efficiency of the use of the company's personnel, allow for further research on the specification of the elements of individual stages of monitoring, the justification of key indicators and terms by which it will be carried out, and the development of reporting forms to display the results of monitoring.

Published: December 2024

Hypertension is a prevalent, non-communicable disease with elevated blood pressure. Overconsumption of salt increases blood pressure, posing a risk of stroke and heart attack. The DASH diet aims to lower blood pressure and maintain normal levels. This study aims to explore the relationship between self-efficacy, DAHS diet, and blood pressure in hypertensive patients in the Kediri City sub-district. The study used a quantitative, observational, and cross-sectional approach to analyze the relationship between self-efficacy, the DASH diet, and blood pressure in hypertensive patients. A sample of 100 respondents was surveyed using questionnaires.
