Comparative Study among MAPE, RMSE and R Square over the Treatment Techniques Undergone for PCOS Influenced Women
Authors: Shanmugavalli M. , Ignatia K. Majella Jenvi
Published: December 2023

Background:

Among the various statistical measures, Root Mean Square Error
(RMSE), Mean absolute Percentage Error (MAPE), and R-squared (Coefficient of determination)
are the most widely used methods. The significance of the R square approach in the medical field
was extensively discussed in the current review. Furthermore, we compared a number of statistical
metrics for potential applications in the treatment of various disorders. In addition, the pertinent
patents of R square for the consequences of testosterone and the enzymes aspartate dehydrogenase
(AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) on Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) treated patients
have been developed.

Method:

We study in this paper the detailed comparative study on the biological system using
RMSE, MAPE, and R Squared, which consists of 29 PCOS-influenced women against 20 healthy
women and followed by the obesity verification model over the Sprague Dawley rats.

Results:

R Square provides the best results among all mathematical regression analytical methods
in PCOS-influenced patients.

Conclusion:

In this study, we provide the strong conclusion that aspartate dehydrogenase (AST)
with testosterone treated on PCOS influenced women to have a greater chance of getting affected
by Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) rather than alanine transaminase (ALT) with testosterone-
treated patients. Furthermore, this study extends their mathematical regression analysis
through R squared for the obesity verification over rat model. It confirms that letrozole-treated
rats are inhibited in obese compared with control rats, which results in a chance of NAFLD.
Therefore, AST combined with testosterone creates a major chance for liver dysfunction.

A Narrative Review
Authors: Gupta Jeetendra Kumar , Singh Kuldeep , Kumar Shivendra , Khandelwal Girdhar
Published: December 2023

Cancer remains a significant global health concern, and natural compounds found in
fruits and vegetables have shown potential anti-cancer effects. Grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) has
gained attention due to its rich phytochemical composition and biological activities, including
anti-cancer properties. This narrative review analyzes the literature on grapefruit-based drug
development and its potential as an adjunctive or alternative therapeutic strategy for cancer
treatment. Grapefruit-derived compounds have been extensively studied for their anti-cancer
effects, with preclinical studies showing promising outcomes in inhibiting cancer cell growth
and proliferation. Compounds made from grapefruit also have anti-cancer effects. They do this
in a number of ways, such as by affecting the cell cycle, apoptosis, angiogenesis, metastasis,
and key signalling pathways. Petrified grapefruit compounds have potential synergistic effects
with conventional chemotherapy drugs, enhancing cytotoxic effects while reducing adverse
side effects. They have shown promising results in overcoming drug resistance, a major obstacle in cancer treatment. However, challenges such as bioavailability, drug interactions, and
variability in compound composition remain. Overall, grapefruit-derived compounds possess
significant anti-cancer properties and warrant further investigation for clinical application.

Published: December 2023

Background:

Skin aging is a result of the aging process and also intrinsic and extrinsic
factors. In order to better understand this process and evaluate anti-aging products, it is necessary
to develop in vitro models that can recapitulate the biological process of aged skin. Therefore, the
aim of this study was to develop an aged skin equivalent model to evaluate these properties.

Methods:

Human fibroblasts were incorporated into the collagen matrix and keratinocytes were
added and cultured in an air-liquid interface for 21 days. During this period, the matrices were
exposed to UV or EX527 to trigger biological aging processes.

Results:

The two protocols evaluated demonstrated reduced expression of genes related to longevity and regulation of cellular redox homeostasis, and it was confirmed with histological analysis. Also, the model demonstrated the anti-aging potential of resveratrol.

Conclusion:

The model developed is a promising platform for reproducing aged skin and evaluating rejuvenating agents.

Global health and economy have been severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic that
was brought on by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. This makes the creation of potent medications for
the treatment of COVID-19 disease a top goal. In clinical trials, several medications that have been
repurposed for the treatment of COVID-19 have shown promise. Nevertheless, there are a lot of obstacles to overcome in the creation of COVID-19 pharmacological therapy. The inability to pinpoint
prospective treatment targets is one difficulty caused by the unclear etiology of COVID-19. Another
difficulty is the virus' quick evolution, which can result in the creation of drug-resistant variants.
Furthermore, the quick start of clinical trials has been prompted by the strong demand for effective
therapies. A lack of reliable data on the safety and efficacy of medications can result from the early
start of clinical trials that have been prompted by the strong demand for effective medicines. Despite
these obstacles, the development of various promising pharmacological treatments for COVID-19
has advanced. These include immune-modulating medications, like dexamethasone and tocilizumab,
as well as antiviral medicines, like remdesivir and favipiravir. Combination therapies using several
medications may also be useful in enhancing outcomes for COVID-19 patients. Despite some encouraging advancements, there are still a lot of obstacles to be addressed in the development of
pharmacological therapy for COVID-19. Further research is needed to identify the most effective
treatment approaches for this disease.

SARS-CoV-2 infection among pregnant women causes maternal and neonatal complications. Professional societies endorse the vaccination among pregnant women. This review of the
cohort studies aims to assess the short-term maternal and neonatal outcomes among vaccinated vs.
non-vaccinated pregnant women with SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. We searched Cochrane Central
Registry of Controlled Trials, Scopus, Google Scholar, and PubMed databases. The observational
cohort studies published from July 2021 to December 2022 were included. The eligibility criteria
were assessed. The studies documenting maternal and neonatal outcomes and the relative risk, and
95% confidence interval were considered. Joanna Briggs Institute data extraction form was used,
and the quality assessment of the included study was conducted using the Newcastle-Ottawa quality assessment scale. The quality of the grading was summarised with GradePro software. Data
from the five cohort studies are considered. 56% of the un-vaccinated pregnant women experience
composite adverse maternal outcomes (RR: 3.97; 95% CI:0.73,21.49; p-value: ˂0.11). There was a
reduced risk of occurrence of the meconium-stained amniotic fluid who are vaccinated (RR: 0.89;
95% CI:0.71, 1.12; p value=0.33). The unvaccinated group is 3.16 times more likely to take infertility treatment (RR: 3.54; 95% CI:2.04, 6.12; p-value: ˂0.00001). There was no significant difference concerning neonatal outcomes between both groups. The pregnant women who were not vaccinated against SARS-CoV had an increased risk for a composite adverse maternal outcome and
meconium-stained amniotic fluid. The vaccine has effectively prevented the disease in the first six
months. Additional studies are needed to understand the safety of the SARS-CoV vaccine.

Associations Between Patient-Reported Outcome Measures of Physical and Psychological Functioning and Willingness to Share Social Media Data for Research Among Adolescents With a Chronic Rheumatic Disease: Cross-Sectional Survey
Authors: Weitzman Elissa R , Minegishi Machiko , Cox Rachele , Wisk Lauren E
Published: December 2023

Background

Social media data may augment understanding of the disease and treatment experiences and quality of life of youth with chronic medical conditions. Little is known about the willingness to share social media data for health research among youth with chronic medical conditions and the differences in health status between sharing and nonsharing youth with chronic medical conditions.

Objective

We aimed to evaluate the associations between patient-reported measures of disease symptoms and functioning and the willingness to share social media data.

Methods

Between February 2018 and August 2019, during routine clinic visits, survey data about social media use and the willingness to share social media data (dependent variable) were collected from adolescents in a national rheumatic disease registry. Survey data were analyzed with patient-reported measures of disease symptoms and functioning and a clinical measure of disease activity, which were collected through a parent study. We used descriptive statistics and multivariate logistic regression to compare patient-reported outcomes between youth with chronic medical conditions who opted to share social media data and those who did not opt to share such data.

Results

Among 112 youths, (age: mean 16.1, SD 1.6 y; female: n=72, 64.3%), 83 (74.1%) agreed to share social media data. Female participants were more likely to share (P=.04). In all, 49 (43.8%) and 28 (25%) participants viewed and posted about rheumatic disease, respectively. Compared to nonsharers, sharers reported lower mobility (T-score: mean 49.0, SD 9.4 vs mean 53.9, SD 8.9; P=.02) and more pain interference (T-score: mean 45.7, SD 8.8 vs mean 40.4, SD 8.0; P=.005), fatigue (T-score: mean 49.1, SD 11.0 vs mean 39.7, SD 9.7; P<.001), depression (T-score: mean 48.1, SD 8.9 vs mean 42.2, SD 8.4; P=.003), and anxiety (T-score: mean 45.2, SD 9.3 vs mean 38.5, SD 7.0; P<.001). In regression analyses adjusted for age, sex, study site, and Physician Global Assessment score, each 1-unit increase in symptoms was associated with greater odds of willingness to share social media data, for measures of pain interference (Adjusted Odds Ratio [AOR] 1.07, 95% CI 1.001-1.14), fatigue (AOR 1.08, 95% CI 1.03-1.13), depression (AOR 1.07, 95% CI 1.01-1.13), and anxiety (AOR 1.10, 95% CI 1.03-1.18).

Conclusions

High percentages of youth with rheumatic diseases used and were willing to share their social media data for research. Sharers reported worse symptoms and functioning compared to those of nonsharers. Social media may offer a potent information source and engagement pathway for youth with rheumatic diseases, but differences between sharing and nonsharing youth merit consideration when designing studies and evaluating social media–derived findings.
Machine Learning–Based Asthma Attack Prediction Models From Routinely Collected Electronic Health Records: Systematic Scoping Review
Authors: Budiarto Arif , Tsang Kevin C H , Wilson Andrew M , Sheikh Aziz , Shah Syed Ahmar
Published: December 2023

Background

An early warning tool to predict attacks could enhance asthma management and reduce the likelihood of serious consequences. Electronic health records (EHRs) providing access to historical data about patients with asthma coupled with machine learning (ML) provide an opportunity to develop such a tool. Several studies have developed ML-based tools to predict asthma attacks.

Objective

This study aims to critically evaluate ML-based models derived using EHRs for the prediction of asthma attacks.

Methods

We systematically searched PubMed and Scopus (the search period was between January 1, 2012, and January 31, 2023) for papers meeting the following inclusion criteria: (1) used EHR data as the main data source, (2) used asthma attack as the outcome, and (3) compared ML-based prediction models’ performance. We excluded non-English papers and nonresearch papers, such as commentary and systematic review papers. In addition, we also excluded papers that did not provide any details about the respective ML approach and its result, including protocol papers. The selected studies were then summarized across multiple dimensions including data preprocessing methods, ML algorithms, model validation, model explainability, and model implementation.

Results

Overall, 17 papers were included at the end of the selection process. There was considerable heterogeneity in how asthma attacks were defined. Of the 17 studies, 8 (47%) studies used routinely collected data both from primary care and secondary care practices together. Extreme imbalanced data was a notable issue in most studies (13/17, 76%), but only 38% (5/13) of them explicitly dealt with it in their data preprocessing pipeline. The gradient boosting–based method was the best ML method in 59% (10/17) of the studies. Of the 17 studies, 14 (82%) studies used a model explanation method to identify the most important predictors. None of the studies followed the standard reporting guidelines, and none were prospectively validated.

Conclusions

Our review indicates that this research field is still underdeveloped, given the limited body of evidence, heterogeneity of methods, lack of external validation, and suboptimally reported models. We highlighted several technical challenges (class imbalance, external validation, model explanation, and adherence to reporting guidelines to aid reproducibility) that need to be addressed to make progress toward clinical adoption.
HelaDepDet 2.0 - A Novel Deep Learning Approach for Detecting the Severity of Human Depression on Social Media Analysis (Preprint)
Authors: Priyadarshana Y H P P , Liang Zilu , Piumarta Ian
Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND

Depression affects the mental and physical well-being of humans. According to the latest statistics, cases of depression-driven self-harm and suicide are reported at an alarming rate. Although multiple clinical diagnosis methods have been established, the requirements of having skilled medical staff, equipment, and processing time limit their accessibility. Depression detection using social media data has therefore become a growing research area. Social media is used to express emotions and feelings hence analyzing such content could help to detect abnormalities sooner than by clinical diagnosis. Even though there are systems which can detect the presence or absence of depression, such methods cannot determine the severity of depression and many of them were not validated on large corpora.

OBJECTIVE

In this study, we propose a confidence vector based novel deep learning approach for detecting the severity of human depression. A well-balanced and aggregated novel dataset is also introduced as a part of this study to validate our proposed model on a large corpus.

METHODS

We formulated the problem of interest into a multiclass classification problem. The core logic is to generate confidence vectors considering the identified depressive words/phrases of each extracted social media statements and then to obtain the exact depression severity level using a fully connected deep neural network. To validate our method, we aggregated two labelled, unbalanced, and small public corpora for depression severity detection to obtain a well-balanced dataset consisting of more than 40,000 social media statements. Optimal data balancing techniques were applied to maintain a fair number of samples in each depression severity class. To our knowledge, this is the largest corpus for depression severity detection to date.

RESULTS

Experimental results showed that our methodology achieved a new state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance in depression severity detection with Precision, Recall, and F1 Scores of 79%, 77%, and 76%, respectively, over existing baselines.

CONCLUSIONS

The results showed that our method is competitive with baseline models for depression severity detection.

Authors: Handayani Valentina Dwi Suci , Sulistyaningsih Endang
Published: December 2023

Produktivitas bawang merah nasional masih di bawah potensi hasil yang diharapkan. Tidak optimalnya produktivitas bawang merah disebabkan interferensi gulma. Interferensi gulma dapat menjadi penyebab kehilangan hasil pada proses budidaya karena adanya kompetisi dan dampak dari alelopati. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat dampak interferensi gulma terhadap kualitas dan hasil bawang bawang merah. Penelitian menggunakan Rancangan Acak Kelompok Lengkap (RAKL) dengan tiga blok sebagai ulangan. Perlakuan yang diujikan adalah pengendalian gulma dan tanpa pengendalian. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan pengendalian gulma pada lahan pertanian menyebabkan perubahan kelimpahan dan keragaman komunitas gulma. Pengendalian gulma pada saat 3 dan 6 minggu setelah tanam (mst) menyebabkan perbedaan kelimpahan gulma dan perubahan  dominasi gulma yaitu dari rumputan menjadi daun lebar yang terjadi pada pengamatan 6 mst dan 9 mst. Kelimpahan dan dominansi gulma berdampak pada penurunan diameter umbi, bobot segar umbi dan bobot umbi bawang merah kering jemur (susut bobot). Pengendalian gulma pada lahan pertanian dapat mencegah kehilangan hasil bawang merah dengan rerata 3 ton/ha dibandingkan lahan tanpa pengendalian.

Published: December 2023

Este libro presenta los resultados de la evaluación de riesgo de 44 especies ornamentales de peces exóticos que se comercializan en México. La segunda causa de pérdida de biodiversidad son las especies exóticas invasoras (EEI). Estas especies son capaces de formar poblaciones viables y dispersarse fuera de su área de distribución nativa. Una vez que se establecen, pueden modificar los ciclos biogeoquímicos de los ecosistemas, desplazar hasta causar la extinción de especies nativas, influir negativamente en el sector salud y provocar pérdidas millonarias (dañan instalaciones como tuberías de agua, entorpecen la navegación, provocan la pérdida de cosechas enteras o su erradicación requieren millones de dólares). Considerando todo esto, queda más que clara la necesidad actual de conocer la identidad, la biología y las medidas preventivas para evitar la invasión de las EEI.

Published: December 2023

Customary land in Bali has a very close relationship with the daily life of indigenous people in Bali. Until now, inheritance disputes still occur a lot in Bali, especially seeing the economic value of customary land in Bali today, it also triggers people who have converted from Hinduism to have the same rights as those who are still Hindus in terms of inheritance regardless of the various obligations that must be carried out in Balinese Customary society. The objectives of research are to explore and identify the temple land / Druwe Mrajan land which is still sustainable today, and find court decisions that strengthen Balinese Customary Law. The method uses descriptive approach to describe precisely the properties of an individual, situation, symptom or certain group to determine the presence or absence of a relationship between a symptom and other symptoms in society. Through an Empirical approach, with the reality that occurs in the community according to the Awig-awig of the Padang Luwih Traditional village, states that people who have left Hinduism (Ninggal Kedaton) no longer get inheritance rights in the family, because they cannot carry out their obligations both in life in the Customary community, Family, and obligations to ancestors in Mrajan Agung. Inheritance in Balinese customary law does not solely contain the rights of the heirs to the inheritance property, but more than that, the most important is the obligation of the heirs to the testator. The obligation of the heirs is a consequence of the rights they receive.

Published: December 2023

The subgrade of road construction also determines the strength and resistance to loads on it. The subgrade in the field very varies from soft clay to hard soil. The subgrade of soft clay requires soil improvement to increase bearing capacity. This study aims to determine the increase in bearing capacity and modulus of subgrade reaction in stabilized soil with the bamboo grid. The research was conducted through a physical model using a test box. Soft clay is compacted and the above it is replaced with stabilized soil with and without the bamboo grid. The height of stabilized soil varied from 0-15 cm. The results showed that the bearing capacity increased along with the increase in height of stabilized soil.

Climate change affects seasonal changes throughout the world, including in Indonesia a tropical country that experiences rainy and dry seasons with the possibility of facing drought or flood disasters. The long storage construction has an objective to overcome the problem of water availability during the dry and rainy seasons. The Yeh Empas long storage is one of the construction weirs with rubber as a barrier and a movable gate in the Yeh Empas River as a reservoir for raw water for Tabanan Regency. The utilization of movable gates and rubber weir bodies has disadvantages in terms of cost and construction time due to the ordering time. The objective of the current study is to design an alternative weir using circular crested type and Vlughter type energy dissipators without replacing the long storage function. The weir was designed by implementing a 100-year return period flood discharge of 163.29 m3/dt. The design result depicts the dimensions of weir elements consisting of the crest radius, the crest height, the energy dissipator length, the upstream slope, the downstream slope, and the effective width is 1.00 m, 3.30 m, 5.70 m, 2:3, 1:1, and 26.31 m, respectively.

Indonesia has the latest seismic standard, namely SNI 03-1726-2012 which replaces the previous seismic standard, namely SNI 03-1726-2012. This study aims to compare the calculation and analysis of the result of the Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) apartment in Pondok Cina, Depok based on SNI 03-1726-2012 and SNI 03-1726-2019 and find out what parameters make a significant difference between SNI 03-1726-2012 and SNI 03-1726-2012. SNI 03-1726-2019. From the comparison results, there was an increase in the parameter values ​​of SS and S1 in SNI 03-1726-2019, resulting in the influence of the parameter values ​​of SDS and SD1 which became the reference for calculating the acceleration value of the response spectra in SNI 03-1726-2019. The value of the basic static shear force in the X and Y directions in SNI 03-1726-2019 increased by 18% from the value of the basic static shear force in SNI 03-1726-2012 and the value of the dynamic basic shear force in the X and Y directions in SNI 03-1726- 2019 experienced an increase of 15% from the value of the dynamic base shear force in SNI 03-1726-2012. The basic shear force increases because the acceleration spectral design response has a high increase in 03-1726-2019 compared to SNI 03-1726-2012. Based on the control of the performance level of the Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) apartment building, Pondok Cina Depok, is included in the Immediate Occupancy, meaning that when an earthquake occurs, the building does not suffer heavy damage, can still be used and the risk of casualties is very small. Performance-based planning can provide information on how the building behaves during an earthquake and the extent to which the earthquake will affect the structure.

The Law Number 28 of 2009 on Regional Taxes and Levies creates a conflict: Article 90 says taxes are due when the deed is signed, while Article 91 requires proof of tax payment before the deed can be signed by the Land Deed Official/Notary. This study aims to examine the requirements for drawing up an Authentic Deed in order to have a legal force as solid proof and to examine the legal protection for the community upon the enactment of Article 91 subsection (1) of Law Number 28 of 2009. This study is normative legal research using a statutory and conceptual approach. The legal materials are collected using the document study technique and analyzed using a descriptive method, legal interpretation, and argumentum per analogiam (Legal Analogy). The results of this study indicated that an Authentic Deed is a solid proof comprising head, body and closing of the deed. That deed shall provide certainty on the date of drawing up and signing the deed in order to provide legal certainty. The payment of the Duties on Acquisition of Rights on Land and/or Buildings is not a prerequisite for drawing up an Authentic Deed. The payment may be made after the Notary Deed is ratified and before it is registered to the Land Office by the Land Deed Official. If the Authentic Deed has not been signed or ratified by the Land Deed Official, the transfer of land rights would not happen as there is no written evidence which can protect the buyer.
