Published: February 2021

As technology advances, the development of equipment used by humans is increasing and most of the equipment produces unwanted sounds that cause noise. To overcome this, an alternative material for soundproofing is needed which is relatively cheap and easily available in the community by using marble powder as a polyurethane mixture in soundproof panels. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the sound absorption coefficient value and to determine the relationship between the frequency of the sound source and the sound absorption coefficient of acoustic materials using marble powder mixed with polyurethane in different compositions. The sound absorption test in this study was carried out using a two-microphone impedance tube and has a frequency limit of 125 Hz - 4000 Hz, variations in the mass composition of marble and polyurethane powder 1: 1, 1: 2 and 1: 3 with a thickness of 5 cm, 3cm and 1 cm. Then the test results of the 1: 1 test specimen, the lowest sound absorption coefficient value was obtained 0.10 0.73 cm-1 at a thickness of 1 cm with a frequency of 4000 Hz and the highest was 0.73 cm-1 at a thickness of 5 cm with a frequency of 125 Hz, the test results 1: 2 test specimen, the lowest sound absorption coefficient value is 0.29 cm-1 at a thickness of 5 cm at a frequency of 4000 Hz and the highest is 0.67 cm-1 at a thickness of 5 cm at 250 Hz, then the test results of the test specimen are 1: 3 values The lowest sound absorption coefficient was 0.24 at a thickness of 1 cm at a frequency of 4000 Hz and the highest was 0.71 at a thickness of 5 cm at a frequency of 250 Hz. For the comparison of the sound absorption coefficient values ​​based on the composition and thickness, the lowest and highest sound absorption coefficient values ​​are found in 1: 1 specimens with a thickness of 1 cm and 5 cm with the best sound absorption coefficient values ​​on average at a frequency of 500 Hz, but in material 1:2 and 1:3 obtained the sound absorption coefficient values ​​are in between on the grounds that the thicker the material, the higher the sound absorption coefficient value. Thus it can be concluded that the polyurethane composite material mixed with marble powder can be used as a sound absorbing panel material, especially in a 1: 1 composition

Globally, women are underrepresented in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields. Although women’s participation in higher education is increasing, they are still significantly underrepresented in STEM fields. It is important to understand the forces at play, which drive women's choice of STEM education. A variety of factors impact the choice of females to take STEM path including personal (I.e. self-concept, self-efficacy, personal preferences, self-stereotyping and intrinsic motivation) as well as the external factors (i.e. role models, family, teacher’s influence as well as low recruitment of women in STEM fields). This paper systematically reviews the literature on young women’s intention to undertake STEM education in Malaysian context. The paper has adopted the PRISMA protocol for Systematic Literature Review (SLR). The paper has identified 10 research papers which have attempted to identify the factors effecting female participation in STEM education in Malaysian context. Furthermore, the paper has also highlighted the factors which have been identified by these studies as well as those personal and external factors which have not been studied extensively in Malaysian context.

Published: February 2021

While the local governments view the development charge as one of their income sources for providing utilities to the society, property developers’ communities still contend that the charge surges development uncertainty. Moreover, the existing empirical studies of the implementation of development charge in Malaysia is limited by a lack of developer’s view regarding this matter. This further inhibits the aim to gauge the property developers’ perspectives regarding the implementation of development charge in Malaysia. An online exploratory questionnaire was conducted to gather information from the respondents, which included 10 house developers from all over Malaysia by using purposive sampling technique. The findings revealed that the effect it has to property developers seems to have increased developer's uncertainties, especially on the cost of property development. Moreover, the contentious issue concerning how development charge affects the availability and affordability of housing, surround the use of development charge due to the developers pass the burden by increasing the house price. This paper provides new insights for future research in the study of relevant approaches to improve the efficiency of the development charge and the effect it has on the developer's uncertainty.

Maize on the Move: The Diffusion of a Tropical Cultivar across Europe
Authors: Galesi Loren
Published: February 2021

This article examines the transfer and reception of maize into Europe in the wake of the Columbian Exchange. Treating maize as a plant - and reviewing familiar historical sources through the lens of the plant's likes and dislikes, its requirements and inherent traits - provides us with a novel source of information about how maize might have moved through European spaces, even in cases where the traditional historical record is silent. This article will make use of such data, employing current genetic research to interpret art and textual sources. I will show that all maize originally transported to Europe hailed from one slim gene pool. I will argue that the unique characteristics of those seeds impacted on the way maize fit into European ecosystems, and consequently into European cultures.

Background: In Indonesia, nasopharyngeal cancer ranks 4th most in malignancies. As a method of treatment, the development of radiotherapy has made it possible to give high doses to tumors with little risk of healthy tissue, but still maintain accuracy by performing geometry verification procedures. The purpose of this study was to determine the geometry verification procedure of nasopharyngeal cancer with EPID on the Linac plane in RSUP Dr. Kariadi Semarang; the average geometric shift that occurs and why is only done before fractions 1 and 4 only.Methods: This type of research is qualitative with a case study approach. The data is taken from February 2019 to June 2019 by the method of observation, documentation and interviews. The data obtained were analyzed by interactive models, making transcripts of interviews then reduced and processed in the form of open coding, presented in the form of quotations and concluded.Results: The results showed that the geometry verification procedure was started by making a calendar treatment, adjusting the patient's setup at the origin point, switching to the iso center point. Take the image portal with EPID AP and Lateral projections. Match image portals with DRR images. Then the geometric shift data were obtained with a mean shift from the iso center in 5 patient samples: vertical axis 0.15 cm to superior; longitudinal -0.01 cm anteriorly and laterally 0.04 cm to the right. Tolerance limit of 0.3 cm. This verification is only done before fractions 1 and 4 because of the high service load.Conclusion: The geometry verification procedure has been going well with the results of the shift is still below the tolerance limit. Verification information before the 1st and 4th fractions was not enough to assess the accuracy of the irradiation carried out properly maintained.

Vector control needs to be done so that the environment is healthy and free from disease. Flies are one of the vectors for diseases such as diarrhea. Parts of flies that can play a role in disease transmission are legs, wings, body hair, feces and vomit. Flies like habitats with poor sanitation are very attracted to bad smells, piles of wet garbage, vegetables, and scraps of meat, this condition can be described by market conditions. The sweet market in Purwokerto can be a potential place for disease spread. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of fly traps with electric current in reducing fly density in Pasar Manis, West Purwokerto District, Banyumas Regency. This type of research is research and development to develop and test tools and to determine the effectiveness of tools in reducing fly density. Samples were taken non-randomly, namely at TPS, loss of meat and storage of vegetables. The data analysis used was univariate to calculate the effectiveness of using the Flaytrap With Electric Current tool and bivariate analysis using the paired T test to determine differences in fly density before and after treatment. The results of the study obtained a sig value (P-value) of 0.004. The sig value shows that the sig value. (P-Value) α (0.05), so there is a significant difference between the results of measurements of fly density before and after treatment using Flytrap with Electric Current and the efficiency of the tool in reducing fly density by 42.87%. For further research, it is necessary to add attractants with strong odors so that they can attract flies into the trap.

BACKGROUND: Although carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common neuromuscular disorder, studies on its conservative treatment are inadequate and contradictory. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate and compare the effectiveness of low power laser therapy (LPLT) and Kinesio taping (KT) for the treatment of CTS. METHODS: Sixty patients with CTS were included in this study. One group received 15 sessions of KT, and the second group underwent 15 sessions of LPLT within three weeks. All patients were assessed with hand grip strength (HGS), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)-pain, Douleur Neuropathique-4 (DN4) score, Boston Questionnaire (BQ), and electroneuromyography before and after treatment. RESULTS: Before treatment, all clinical and neurophysiological parameters were similar between the groups. After treatment, both groups significantly improved in terms of HGS, VAS-pain, DN4, and BQ. However, the LPLT group had significantly better HGS, VAS-pain, DN4, and BQ than the KT group. In addition, while median nerve motor distal latency and median nerve sensory conduction velocity improved significantly with treatment in both groups, the LPLT group’s improvement was significantly better than that of the KT group. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with CTS, both LPLT and KT were effective treatments. However, the LPLT group had significantly better improvements than the KT group.

Published: February 2021

At present, cancer is a major health issue and the second leading cause of mortality worldwide. Researchers have been working hard on investigating not only improved therapeutics but also on early detection methods, both critical to increasing treatment efficacy and developing methods for disease prevention. Diagnosis of cancers at an early stage can promote timely medical intervention and effective treatment and will result in inhibiting tumor growth and development. Several advances have been made in the diagnostics and imagining technologies for early tumor detection and deciding an effective therapy these include radiomics, nanobodies, and aptamers. Here in this review, we summarize the main applications of radiomics, aptamers, and the use of nanobody-based probes for molecular imaging applications in diagnosis, treatment planning, and evaluations in the field of oncology to develop quantitative and personalized medicine. The preclinical data reported to date are quite promising, and it is predicted that nanobody-based molecular imaging agents will play an important role in the diagnosis and management of different cancer types in near future.

Published: February 2021

The goal of research in Facial Expression Recognition (FER) is to build a robust and strong recognizability model. In this paper, we propose a new scheme for FER systems based on convolutional neural network. Part of the regular convolution operation is replaced by depthwise separable convolution to reduce the number of parameters and the computational workload; the self-adaption joint loss function is adopted to improve the classification performance. In addition, we balance our train set through data augmentation, and we preprocess the input images through illumination processing, face detection, and other methods, effectively maximizing the expression recognition rate. Experiments to validate our methods are conducted based on the TensorFlow platform and Fer2013 dataset. We analyze the experimental results before and after train set balancing and network model modification, and we compare our results with those of other researchers. The results show that our method is effective at increasing the expression recognition rate under the same experiment conditions. We further conduct an experiment on our own expression dataset relevant to driving safety, and it yields similar results.
