Locally Driven Options for Managing Sanitation Issues in Kalingalinga Township of Lusaka
Authors: Mubanga Kabwe H. , Mubanga Fiona C. , Chirwa Beatrice , Musonda-Mubanga Annie , Kayumba Rebecca
Published: February 2022

In recent years, the challenge of sanitation has manifested itself in the perennial outbreaks of diseases such as cholera and dysentery, as well as pollution of water resources, contamination of air, soil and land proliferation of pests and vermin and the loss of aesthetic beauty particularly in low income residential areas. These areas are densely populated implying that externalities resulting from unsanitary conditions will impact more people compared to high residential areas. Further, as long as sanitation management solutions introduced to the locals do not seem to be locally driven, promoters are likely to face dis-adoptions. This study aimed at investigating locally driven options for managing sanitation issues in Kalingalinga Township. It utilized 126 respondents who were systematically randomly sampled. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics, correlation techniques and the least square difference (LSD) methods. The study identified sanitation issues related to waste disposal, unsanitary toilets, intermittent water supply and flooding due to blocked drainages during the rainy season as key sanitation issues affecting residents of Kalingalinga Township. The ratings of the sanitary conditions in the area were largely influenced by one’s level of education and exposure with respondents who had undergone higher levels of formal education being more stringent in their ratings. While level of income was a determinant of access to water supply in the Township, the residents’ poor attitude towards solid waste disposal was a major challenge contributing to unsanitary conditions in the area. The study identified the need to separate generated waste into usable categories that could be recycled, reused and sold as raw materials to particular manufacturing industries. The success of locally driven options would hinge on residents being educated on the sustainable waste management techniques which would also contribute to household income generation through selling off usable wastes. Further, a change in the attitude of residents towards waste management, use of designated solid waste collectors who take waste to designated dump sites, use of disinfectants in toilets and avoidance of stagnating waste water would also help to manage sanitation in the area. Poor sanitation and hygiene have contributed to malnutrition cases in Zambia which may be caused by diarrheal diseases. If sanitation is well managed in this Township, then diarrheal cases, caused by poor sanitation, can be minimized. While the Lusaka City Council was often mentioned as a major solution towards waste management in the area, the study recommended participatory education of the locals in sustainable waste management, conversion of household waste into household income and a change in residents’ attitude as the starting points in ensuring successful sanitation management.

Authors: Kanani Xhorda , Ormeni Rrapo
Published: February 2022

During two decades of this century, the Albanian and its surrounding seismicity is dominated by high values. One active fault zone, determined on the foci and energy of earthquakes is Bulqiza-Macukull zone. On August 11, 2018 a moderate Ms5.2 earthquake sequence burst in the Bulqiza-Macukull tectonic fault zone. The main shock was located 8 km northwest of Bulqiza town and was felt over a larger area of northern, central and southern Albania. The Bulqiza-Macukull tectonic segment is exposed on the ground at a length of about 35 km, according to the SE-NW direction. The database of this study, composed of 305 seismic events with ML>1.0 is characterized by tectonic earthquakes activity in this fault zone. The focal mechanisms solution of the moderate earthquake indicate stress regime in this zone. The analysis of main aspects of seismicity during this century provides us correct interpretations of seismotectonics, geodynamic phenomena of the Earth's crust. The Bulqiza-Macukull transversal fault zone presents a threat to the nearby urban and hydropower areas.

Authors: Nmezi S. N. , Nwachukwu M. C. , Igbomezie M. C.
Published: February 2022

Purpose: The study was conducted to investigate the possible effects of Alstonia congensis (leaf, bark and root) extracts on heamatology of albino rat.
Is the extract poisonous? What is the LD50 of the extract? Is the heamatology of the test animals affected by the extract? Is the effect dangerous for the animal?
Method: The study was carried out between February 2019 to October 2020. A. congensis was collected from Emekuku area of Imo State. The albino rats were purchased from the Animal Science and Production Department of Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike, Umuahia. Acute toxicity studies of the crude extracts were carried out in albino mice. The possible effects of the extracts on hematology of the albino rats were determined using automated machine.
Results: In acute toxicity test, all the mice that received the doses (10, 100,1000, 1600, 2900 and 5000 mg/kg) of the extract survived beyond the 2weeks of observation. The medium lethal dose toxicity value (LD50) of the extract must be above 5000 mg/kg which indicates that the extract is safe for consumption. The extracts did exhibit some hematological changes, the packed cell volume (PCV) of the test animals were reduced. The RBC of the animals were reduced significantly when 800 mg/kg of bark extract was given, but no mortality was observed. The WBC and HB of the animals were affected but the effects were not significant. There was no evidence of drug-induced symptoms at all the doses of the extract administered.
Conclusion: The extract can be deleterious to the heamatological parameters of the test animal when used in high doses for a long period. Therefore, it is advisable to be used in chronic cases where orthodox medicine failed.

Published: February 2022

Background: Improving maternal and child health can be achieved through programs aimed at reducing maternal mortality rate (MMR) and infant mortality rate (IMR). Apart from going through a normal delivery, labor can also be done by abdominal surgery/ cesarean section (CS). A safe and timely Cesarean Section (CS) remains a major challenge in countries with high MMR, which poses new challenges to these countries in being able to minimize CS without clinical indication. This study aims to determine the rates and characteristics of patients underwent CS, indications of CS, as well as the rate of CS based on Robson's classification system.

Methods: A retrospective descriptive study of labor and delivery cases in the Sanglah General Hospital Denpasar was conducted from the period of 1stJanuary 2018 - 31st December 2018.

Results: From 1121 deliveries in 2018, the rates of CS in that period were 34.3%. As many as 28.1% were the age of 25-29 years. The 31.9% subjects were primigravida, with the gestational age was term around 66%. The majority of samples around 73.2% did not have a history of previous CS. Using Robson criteria, we found that the biggest contribution for CS rate was from group 10 (23.38%), then group 5 (15.84%) and group 2 (13.51%).

Conclusion: Around 385 cases of labor with CS were obtained from a total of 1121 deliveries in 2018 (34.3%). The highest rate was found in the age group of 25-29 years, mothers with first pregnancy (primigravida), most of the gestational age was term, majority did not have a history of previous CS and the highest contribution of CS rate was from Robson group 10 (23.38%).

Authors: Oranu Emmanuel Okwudili , Ojule John Dimkpa
Published: February 2022

Background: The contraceptive prevalence of Nigeria is low. Post partum contraception (PPC), especially in the immediate post period, may improve our contraceptive prevalence rate.

Objective: To determine the level of awareness and willingness to use post partum contraception by antenatal attendees of the University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital (UPTH).

Methods: This is a cross-sectional questionnaire-based prospective study in consented antenatal attendees of the UPTH between the 1st of June and 31st of August 2020. Pretested questionnaires were administered on the respondents by trained assistants. Their socio-demographic data and information on their awareness and willingness to use post partum contraception were entered into excel spread sheet and analyzed with SPSS version 20.0. Chi-square test of variables were done and P<0.05 was taken as significant. The results were presented in tables of frequencies and percentages.

Result: Two hundred and seventy-one antenatal attendees of the UPTH participated in this study. Their mean parity was 2.65 with a standard deviated of 1.25. Of the total number of respondents, 299(99.26%) had at least a secondary education, 156 were aware of post partum contraception; giving a prevalence of 57.56%. Two hundred and six (76.01%) expressed willingness to use post partum contraception if counseled and offered. Husbands support for the use of contraception was 69.37%.

Conclusion: There was poor awareness of post partum contraception in the UPTH antenatal attendees. However, the expression of willingness to use this method of contraception was high.
The Spatial Impacts of Covid-19 and Households Behavioural Changes in Akure, Nigeria
Authors: Olubi Abiodun Rufus , Ayoola Hezekiah Adedayo
Published: February 2022

Individuals' spatial experiences differ but, in many cases, the local environment and the society at large constitute huge influences on life experiences. COVID-19 is the current life experience that affects physical, societal, as well as residential wellbeing globally. It causes radical changes in the meaning, perception, and individual behaviours in and around residential housing spaces with lots of implications worth researching. This paper through survey examined the spatial experiences presented by the pandemic; its impacts on the spaces and other factors that constitute huge changes in human household behaviours within the low-income neighbourhoods in Akure, Nigeria. It was discovered that individual houses serve as the first line of defence against COVID-19; the lockdown imposed on cities and other precautionary measures also necessitated voluntary and involuntary behavioural changes which become visible in many households, these changes may likely be sustained after the pandemic. The paper emphasizes the need to reinforce the built environment against pandemics and also to ensure that post-pandemic residential housing designs are flexible, easily adaptable, upgradeable, and sustainable.
Towards African Renaissance: A Linguistic Study of Ayi Kwei Armah’s Two Thousand Seasons
Authors: Omo-Ojugo Grace Iyengumena
Published: February 2022

This study focuses on the exploration of Africa concept of a dream world – a continent marching towards a rebirth, towards that utopia that Joseph Edoki wrote about in The Upward Path (Edoki, 2008).   This Africa concept of rebirth does not believe in jumping the gun to get to the utopia, but rather beams the searchlight on the opportunities, challenges and prospects that are littered all along the trajectory of the journey to that utopia Africans look forward to. For long, Africa as a continent was captured in slavery and this took its toll on the people as they developed inferiority complex, low self-esteem, no love loss, among others. Thus, at the expiration of colonialism, so much damage had been done. Ayi Kwei Armah’s Two Thousand Seasons (Armah, 1979) warns against a repeat of the cause of the desolation in the first place, and then illustrates that the only escape route is to return to “The Way” which Africans have lost. Thus, the text is about a people depressed, a people neglected, and a people striving to recover their identity even from the hands of their own people. This paper is a linguistic study of Armah’s Two Thousand Seasons set to investigate the novelist’s level of success in the employment of the creative linguistic features aimed at driving home his message about African struggle for survival on the one hand, and highlighting the difficulties encountered in the course of pursuing rebirth on the other hand. Halliday’s Systemic Functional Approach has been adopted in this work.
Determining the Necessary Requirements for Developing a Business-to-Business Application: A Consultancy-Based Analysis
Authors: Haruna Abdallah Imam
Published: February 2022

Digital transformation, one of the by-products of technological advancement, has become a powerful driving force for success in the corporate world. The reasons are many and varied: the use of technology helps expedite business processes, manage employees remotely with ease while ensuring smooth automation of various operations. However, in this age of unprecedented volatility in the market, all business leaders need to think differently about their organization’s strategic direction and prepare their businesses for the disruptive competition that lies ahead. It, therefore, makes business sense that Company X is contemplating developing a mobile Business-to-Business (B2B) application to help boost business-customer interactions. That, in turn, would ensure profitable business growth that maximizes shareholder value and remove the core barriers and restrictions that hinder business growth. As a Small and Medium-sized Enterprise (SME) in the food industry that supplies food products to catering companies, Company X has realized that implementing a well-developed and customized B2B mobile app in the daily transactions of the company would be one of the surest ways to increase visibility and maximize sales. The ensuing pages and paragraphs would present a report bid proposal for Company X, which requires a scoping study to determine the needed requirements for developing and implementing the Business-to-Business (B2B) mobile application. For the app to successfully address the needs of the business, and be widely accepted by customers, several factors must be taken into consideration before, during, and after the development of the app. Thus, this report would focus on addressing those existential requirements that the client needs to analyze carefully before allotting any resources – both financial and human – to the project. The purpose is to make available to Company X a strategic decision-making tool that would aid in pre-investment brainstorming and preparations. The bid report adopts industry-approved methodologies and techniques to examine, scientifically, the most suitable structural, resource, and functional requirements required for the development and effectuation of the mobile Business-to-Business app project. Given that the timeline for the completion of the study is six (6) months, this report would rely on the Gantt chart to outline the sequence of activities and to determine when, where, and how each activity would be performed. This is meant to ensure effective and efficient completion of the report.

The results indicate three main issues to build peaceful relations between Great Britain and the United States in this period. First, overcoming the consequences of the War of 1812; Secondly, resolving disputes existing in relations between the two countries in the previous period; and lastly, developing trade relations between the two countries. The paper contributes to the study of Anglo-American relations and issues of American history in the mentioned period.
Perspectives on the Development of the EU Crisis Management System
Authors: Stankov Vasil Hristov
Published: February 2022

The article reveals the main features of the European Union crisis management system and outlines the endeavors undertaken to improve it further by introducing a more proactive approach through enhancing the response mechanism and expanding the capabilities for prevention, preparedness and resilience. The article highlights the ability of the EU crisis management to meet the challenges of the security environment and respond to different scenarios, including overseas political-military crises having a strong impact on various aspects of common security. Furthermore, the article explores the capabilities of the Union to conduct military and civilian missions and operations within the Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) and analyzes their specific contribution to international peace and security. The article underlines the importance of self-reliant strategic airlift as a token of strategic autonomy and a provider of flexible mobility options. It goes on to argue that matters of strategic air mobility should be addressed along with the concerns preventing the use of the EU multinational battlegroups so far. Then, the article identifies the Strategic Compass, due to be adopted in 2022, as a platform for a common strategic vision for the Union’s security and defense priorities, a sound basis for consensus on future response options and a facilitator for further integration of the military component of defense into the EU crisis management system. It also maintains that increased responsibilities would impose higher requirements upon the key elements of the crisis management process. The article points to intelligence as an integrated effort supporting CSDP military and civilian missions. Finally, it suggests three main approaches to the development of the European crisis management system and concludes that the main goal should be reinforcing the role of the EU as one of the pillars of international peace and security.

Feline Panleukopenia Infections : Treatment and Control in Nepal
Authors: Pandey Shankar
Published: February 2022

Feline panleukopenia is a fatal and contagious viral disease caused by the family of Parvoviridae. Feline panleukopenia virus (FPV) is synonymously called as feline distemper and feline Parvo. FPV infects all felids, raccoons, mink and foxes. FPV infected animals generally have compromised health conditions. Cats of all ages are mostly affected by FPV, but kittens are highly susceptible with higher mortality. The virus is resistant to many disinfectants and normally survives in the environment for several months. Transmission occurs through direct contact of faeces contaminated feeds as well as by indirect contact of fomites, and through intrauterine route. Clinical symptoms include vomition, diarrhoea, lymphopenia and neutropenia, followed by thrombocytopenia and anaemia, immunosuppression, cerebellar ataxia and abortion. Commercially available test kits are used to detect FPV antigen in faeces. Fluid therapy, antibiotics, metronidazole, supportive therapy, and good nursing care are the common treatment practice in Central Referral Veterinary Hospital (CRVH), Nepal. The disease can be controlled by isolation of infected cats, routine vaccination and disinfection of premises. The higher incidence in Nepal is due to lack of vaccination practice against FPV. Disinfectants containing sodium hypochlorite (bleach), potassium peroxymonosulfate and accelerated hydrogen peroxide are found effective. The aim of this paper is to review the current status of the disease, epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, treatment and control measures for prevention and management of feline panleukopenia infections in developing countries like Nepal.
Recontinentalizing Canada: Arctic Ice’s Liquid Modernity and the Imagining of a Canadian Archipelago
Authors: Vannini Phillip , Baldacchino Godfrey , Guay Lorraine , Royle Stephen A. , Steinberg Philip E.
Published: February 2022

Studying mobile actor networks of moving people, objects, images, and discourses, in conjunction with changing time-spaces, offers a unique opportunity to understand important, and yet relatively neglected, “relational material” dynamics of mobility. A key example of this phenomenon is the recontinentalization of Canada amidst dramatically changing articulations of the meanings and boundaries of the Canadian landice-ocean mass. A notable reason why Canada is being re-articulated in current times is the extensiveness of Arctic thawing. The reconfiguration of space and “motility” options in the Arctic constitutes an example of how “materiality and sociality produce themselves together.” In this paper we examine the possibilities and risks connected to this recontinentalization of Canada’s North. In exploring the past, present, and immediate future of this setting, we advance the paradigmatic view that Canada’s changing Arctic is the key element in a process of transformation of Canada into a peninsular body encompassed within a larger archipelagic entity: a place more intimately attuned to its immense (and growing) coastal and insular routes.
At the Intersection of Resident, Research and Recreation Stakeholder Interests: East Maui, Hawai‘i, as a Sustainable Tourism Destination
Authors: Cusick John
Published: February 2022

The experiences of contemporary protected areas indicate adaptations to challenges brought about by resource management strategies. Resident communities, protected area management, and the tourism industry stakeholders demonstrate that evolving relationships are complex webs of competing and cooperating interests. The geographic isolation of East Maui delayed the cultural disruption of traditional practices and is an area where residents simultaneously resist assimilation and re-create cultural landscapes to offer visitors a glimpse into the past and a view of an emerging future associated with the renaissance of Native Hawaiian identity. Partnerships have brought about and nurtured the perpetuation of culture and the conservation of biodiversity as stakeholders recognize shared benefits. Among the outcomes are that residents have reconstituted the identity of East Maui as a Hawaiian place with benefits to various stakeholders, including a network of protected areas. A sustainability framework suggests a reappraisal of how to nurture, not alter, East Maui’s identity.
The Fragility of Success: Repositioning Mauritian Development in the Twenty-First Century
Authors: Greig Alastair , Turner Mark , D'Arcy Paul
Published: February 2022

Mauritius is often considered a ‘success story’ to be read for salutary purposes by other small island developing states (SIDS). While it does share broadly similar attributes with many other SIDS, and acts in unison with other SIDS in international fora, local histories, cultures, geography and location invariably lead to significant differences in developmental trajectories. This paper presents an assessment of Mauritian history in order to explore the contemporary threats and opportunities that face the island in its contemporary quest to transform the island into Maurice Ȋle Durable. Rather than offering Mauritius as a guide to other SIDS, it presents a useful case study of the tension between establishing social equity and carving out a functional role within the global economy.

Published: February 2022

Gifted individuals has an important role in the progress of societies, it would be beneficial to better identify these individuals and understand their needs and differences. For that reason, the peer relationships of gifted and non-gifted high school students were examined in this study. The study was carried out as survey model. The study group consisted of 156 students in total, including 60 students registered to Şahinbey Science and Art Center (BILSEM) in Gaziantep, and 96 students who were not identified as gifted. All were students in the same classes as those with talented, where secondary education was received. In the study, the “Personal Information Form” and “Peer Relationship Scale” that was developed by Atik, Çok, Çoban and Doğan (2014) were used as data collection tools. According to the results of the research, no significant difference was observed in terms of peer relationships between high school students, who were and were not identified as gifted. When peer relationships of male high school students who were and non-gifted are examined in terms of sub-dimensions, it is seen that there is a significant difference between the sub-dimensions of “companionship”, “protection” ”and “closeness” in favor of “gifted male students”. There is no significant difference in peer relationship mean scores of non-gifted female students. It can be said that there is greater differentiation in peer relationship sub-dimensions in terms of being identified as gifted in the students of 16-18 age group, compared to the 13-15 age group. The findings were discussed in the light of the relevant literature.

Traces of Spiritual Nationalism in the Selected Poems of Ranu Uniyal and Arundhati Subramaniam
Authors: Neelam``` Dr.
Published: February 2022

Ranu Uniyal and Arundhati Subramaniam are contemporary Indian English Poets. They are deeply rooted in Indian soil. Their poems are full of Indian ethos and deal with a wide variety of subjects. Spiritual nationalism is one of them. Like Aurobindo Ghosh, for them nationalism means true devotion towards one’s country and its people irrespective of their faith, caste, race and sex. India is a multilingual, multicultural and multireligious country. The conflicts on the basis of religion and culture are inevitable. People are often misguided by conservative and narrow- minded religious leaders and politicians which sometimes results in riots. Both Uniyal and Subramaniam believe that riots in a multicultural country like India are inescapable. India has faced so many invasions and incursions but continued to grow with the passage of time. The biggest strength of India is its spiritualism. It has empowered it during all external and internal assaults. Uniyal and Subramaniam believe that the negative forces which are destroying the peace and harmony of the nation can be defeated by realizing the core values of Indian culture. The objective of this research paper is to compare and explore the national ethos present in their selected poems: “In a City of Riots” by Uniyal and “Home” by Subramaniam

Published: February 2022

Pemantauan neurofisiologis intraoperatif (N-IOM) berkembang menuju standar perawatan untuk meminimalkan risiko cedera jalur saraf selama prosedur bedah saraf. Pentingnya tidak hanya terletak dalam mendiagnosis cedera pada periode perioperatif untuk pasien yang berisiko tinggi serta komplikasi neurologis dari operasi tetapi juga dalam menciptakan kesempatan untuk menyelamatkan jaringan saraf yang berisiko sebelum kerusakan menjadi ireversibel. Operasi pada tulang belakang merupakan salah satu operasi dengan tingkat resiko tinggi untuk mencederai jaringan sehat sekitar, oleh sebab itu teknik anestesi dengan N-IOM akan sangat membantu mengurangi komplikasi durante operasi. Beberapa penelitian sebelumnya meneliti tentang kombinasi yang berbeda dari teknik N-IOM (seperti somatosensory evoked potentials [SEPs], motor evoked potentials [MEPs], direct wave, free- running electromyography). Hasilnya didapatkan bahwa penggunaan N-IOM multimodal untuk operasi tumor sumsum tulang belakang memberikan hasil yang lebih baik daripada penggunaan N-IOM dengan satu teknik. Teknik N-IOM dengan menggunakan sedasi seperti propofol dan dexmedetomidine yang dikombinasikan dengan opioid seperti fentanyl dapat menjaga kedalaman anestesi pasien tanpa mengganggu sinyal N-IOM itu sendiri. Untuk memaksimalkan nilainya, penting tim operasi untuk memiliki pemahaman dasar tentang prinsip-prinsip neuromonitoring dan ahli anestesi untuk memahami bagaimana hal itu dapat dipengaruhi oleh anestesi. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan teknik anestesi yang optimal dimana hemodinamik pasien tetap terjaga selama pembedahan dan monitoring IOM tetap dapat dilakukan.

Государственная поддержка импортозамещения в лесопромышленном комплексе Российской Федерации как необходимое условие устойчивого развития отрасли
Authors: Чекунов Андрей
Published: February 2022

Российская Федерация является обладателем одного из крупнейших запасов лесных ресурсов. На ее долю приходится около четверти всех мировых запасов леса. Данное обстоя-тельство свидетельствует о высоком потенциале отечественного лесопромышленного комплекса, эффективная реализация которого обеспечит динамичное развитие и процветание государства на долгие годы. Вместе с тем, существующая ситуация в отрасли не позволяет ей в полной мере реализовать собственный потенциал. Высокий износ производственных фондов, специализация на выпуске продукции с низкой добавленной стоимостью и интенсивная эксплуатация лесных ресурсов препятствуют эффективному функционированию национального лесопромышленного комплекса. Введение санкций в данном случае может послужить стимулом для модернизации отрасли и повышению конкурентоспособности производимой ею продукции. Государство получает возможность оказывать всестороннюю поддержку лесопромышленному комплексу в целях обеспечения его самодостаточности и устойчивости. Статья посвящена мерам государственной поддержки импортозамещения в отечественном лесопромышленном комплексе. Анализируются ход и результативность государственной поддержки импортозамещения в отрасли, ее эффективность и проблемы реализации. Предложены меры по повышению эффективности государственной поддержки импортозамещения в лесопромышленном комплексе России.

Authors: Asrifah Rofiatul , Herdiani Novera
Published: February 2022

Background:

Ship are related to public health because they allow the spread of disease due to public health risk factors, one of which is the presence of vectors that can trigger disease exchange in human. The existence of vectors on board is caused by poor sanitation such as bad hygiene, inadequate lighting and ventilation, bad food storage, and scattered garbage that is not properly disposed of.

Objectives:

This literature review aims to determine the relationship between ship sanitation factors and the presence of vectors on ship

Research Metodes:

This study use the literature review method by searching for journals on the google scholar database and one search (2010-2020). The keyword used are "ship sanitation with vector presence", "ship sanitation and presence of vectors" and "ship and vector sanitation".

Results:

The result obtained on google scholar 150 articles and one search 16 articles where only 11 articles match this study. The result of this study, unqualified ship compartments namely kitchen and warehouse, due to ineligible hygiene, do not have adequate trash cans, and are free of insects and rat. The presence of cockroach vectors tends to be found on passenger ships and the presence of mosquito and mouse vectors tends to be found on cargo ship.

Conclusion:

The conclusion in this study is that ship sanitation factors are related to the existence of vectors. The advice given is to increase routine ship sanitation checks by the Port Health Office officers.

Background:

Increased population mobility has continued to occur over time, especially worker mobility consisting of commuter mobility and circular mobility. A person's mobility is very influential on the condition of health status, especially related to the spread of infectious diseases. Direct infectious disease is a disease with the transfer of germs through physical contact from a sick person or a carrier to a healthy person.

Objectives:

To analyze the impact of the population mobility revolution on the spread of infectious diseases in Indonesia.

Research Metodes:

The study was conducted by studying literature through collecting supporting articles and analyzing secondary data. The data used are direct infectious disease data consisting of Tuberculosis, HIV, Hepatitis and Leprosy from the Indonesian Health Profile, Main Results of Basic Health Research, and Statistics Data from the Central Statistics Agency, as well as previous research articles.

Results:

The trend of the mobility of movers experienced an increase in line with trends in communicable diseases such as Tuberculosis, HIV, and Hepatitis. High mobility affects the spread of infectious diseases Tuberculosis, Hepatitis and Leprosy seen from the factor of interaction with others, as well as the influence on HIV. The influence can be seen from Commercial Sex Workers (CSWs) who transmit to their customers and the families of CSW customers who can transmit it to their wives.

Conclusion:

The increased mobility pattern of movers is accompanied by an increased pattern of direct infectious diseases including tuberculosis, HIV, and hepatitis.

Abstract

 

Background:

Gaplek is one of the cassava preservation products. Gaplek can be processed into tape called cassava tape. Dosage of yeast in the manufacture of cassava tape increases the alcohol content in cassava tape.

Objectives:

To determine the alcohol content in cassava tape after the addition of yeast with various doses.

Research Metodes:

This research method is experimental. For this type of research is true experimental. The sample used is cassava.

Findings:

Based on the results of the alcohol content above, it can be seen that the highest alcohol content was at a yeast dose of 1.10%, namely 14.08% and decreased at a yeast dose of 1.35% with an alcohol content of 11.83%. After getting the results of the alcohol content, the data were processed using linear regression equations and obtained the equation Y=7.181x+4.846 with the determinant correlation coefficient R2 = 0.747 so that the correlation was 0.8643 which means it has a very strong correlation or correlation coefficient.

Conclusion:

The alcohol content in the tape increased with the addition of the yeast dose, where the highest level of 14,085 was obtained by adding 1.10% yeast into the cassava, but the yeast content decreased when more yeast was added.

Published: February 2022

STI is a contagious disease that often occurs in risk groups such as FSWs in the Solong area, the working area of Samarinda’s Temindung Help Center.

This study aims to determine the behavior of women sex workers in the prevention and search for treatment of sexually transmitted infections in the working area of Temindung Helping Health Center 2019. The purpose of this study is to find out the knowledge, attitudes and actions of FSWs in prevention and search for treatment in the work area of Temindung Helping Health Centers.

The method used is a qualitative method with a case study approach through interview, observation and documentation techniques with 6 research informants

WPS understanding of STI is more focused on general symptoms such as itching without knowing the type of STI and other specific characteristics. The attitude of WPS shows that it supports that agreeing STI must be prevented and treated appropriately and quickly while actions to prevent STI are still lacking which is indicated by not using condoms when serving customers. Efforts to search for STI treatment on WPS immediately seek medical treatment routinely to Health Care Workers and some use general medicine (Amoxicilin)

It is recommended to be given counseling individually and counseling, especially at the time of treatment.

Nurse performance is a measure of success in achieving nursing service goals. Good and bad performance is also influenced by workload, high workload will adversely affect the performance of nurses, poor performance of nurses will affect careers, rewards, no promotion system, and no punishment for poor performance. Based on data from the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia in 2015, the highest number of health workers was nurses as many as 147,264 people (45.65%). In Indonesia, professional nurses only make up 2% of the total existing nurses. This figure is much lower than the Philippines, which has reached 40% with one and two strata education.  This study aims to determine the relationship between workload and nurse performance at the Rawamangun Special Surgery Hospital in 2021. This study uses a Cross Sectional design. The sampling method used was Total Sampling with a total sample of 30 respondents. Data analysis in this study is univariate analysis and bivariate analysis with Chi Square test. The results of the univariate analysis showed the highest proportion of good performance was 53.3%, and the highest proportion of light workloads was 63.3%. The results of the bivariate analysis showed that PR = 0.96; 95% CI = 0.430 – 2.141. There is no relationship between workload and nurse performance at the Rawamangun Special Surgery Hospital in 2021
The Dependence of The Gravitational Lensing Properties on The Lens And Source Redshifts

Published: February 2022

This work aims to investigate the dependence of gravitational lensing properties on the lens redshift and source redshift.

The angular diameter distance hereafter referred to as ADD has been determined using two different numerical integral methods, Simpson's rule, and definite integral methods. Both of those two methods gave identical results. In addition, observational data of gravitational Lensing systems have been used to find the most probable value of lens redshift and source redshift. The result showed that the lens redshift and source redshift are more likely to occur in the ranges of zL=0.2-0.6 and zS=1-3, respectively.

Einstein radius and the critical surface mass density have been studied for those ranges of lens and source redshift. The result clearly showed that the redshifts and distances affect the lensing properties. This indicates that observations of gravitational lensing can be efficiently used to probe the distances and redshifts.
