Authors: Amalliah Julie , Dianova Sri , Kurniawan Ferry Dwi , Zulfikar Teuku , Yusuf Nurrahmah
Published: August 2023

Background: Indonesia has the highest number of adolescent smokers in the world. Carbon monoxide (CO) is a by-product of tobacco smoking and is inhaled into the lungs. A smokerlyzer can monitor its level. Cigarette smoke also causes inflammation that affects airflow in the airways and can be detected by measuring the peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR). This study aims to determine the relationship between smoking and CO levels and PEFR in high school students in Banda Aceh City.Methods: This quantitative study uses an analytical observational approach with a cross-sectional design. This study involved 300 students from five senior high schools in Banda Aceh. The data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney and Spearman test with a significance value <0.05.Results: CO levels of the smoker students were higher (12.61 ± 3.342 ppm) than nonsmoker students (2.46 ± 0.569 ppm), p=0.000. The average PEFR for smoking students was lower than nonsmokers (61.11 ± 9.163%) than for non-smoking students (78.48 ± 6.804 %), p=0.000. Duration of smoking in smoking students was also strongly associated with CO levels and PEFR (r=+0.749, p=0,000, r=-0.560, p=0.000, respectively).Conclusion: There is a relationship between smoking and CO levels and PEFR in senior high school students in Banda Aceh.

Published: August 2023

Background: COVID-19 is known to have infected more than a million people. COVID-19 can be treated with antivirals. Besides antiviral drugs, vaccination becomes one of the strategies to suppress the spread of COVID-19. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of antivirus and the relationship between vaccination and the effectiveness of the two antiviral therapies in COVID-19 patients based on improvements in the patient's clinical condition, length of stay, and mortality.Methods: This study used a retrospective cohort design conducted at the Universitas Indonesia Hospital, Depok, Indonesia. Data were taken from medical records and hospital databases from January 2021 to August 2022. The antivirals in this study were remdesivir and favipiravir. The samples were divided into two groups, namely the vaccinated and unvaccinated groups.Results: The factor affecting the effectiveness of remdesivir and favipiravir therapy was the severity of COVID-19. It was shown that vaccination had a significant effect on improving clinical conditions, reducing length of stay, and reducing mortality in patients treated with remdesivir who had been vaccinated compared to those who had not been vaccinated. In patients who received favipiravir therapy and were vaccinated, it also showed an effect on improving clinical conditions, length of stay, and mortality compared to patients who were not vaccinated, although the results were not statistically significant.Conclusion: Vaccination had a positive effect on the effectiveness of remdesivir and favipiravir in COVID-19 patients, which could improve the patient's clinical condition in a better direction, as well as reduce length of hospitalization and mortality.

Authors: Handjaja Filemon Suryawan , Rasmin Menaldi , Prasenohadi Prasenohadi , Akmal Ernita
Published: August 2023

Background: History shows that respiratory system has a long and complicated arrangement so that many factors can affect a human’s ability to breathe. Some electrolytes often considered as most important are sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), calcium (Ca2+) and chloride (Cl-). Other than that, magnesium (Mg2+) and phosphate (PO43-) are also important in all processes, especially at the neuromuscular junction and in muscle cells as adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Some researchers have found that PO43- affected patients’ clinical condition and ventilator weaning success, although Mg2+ gave inconsistent results. Until now, there have not been any studies or data about the significance of Mg2+ and PO43- in ventilator weaning in Indonesia.Methods: This was a cross sectional study with total sampling. A vein blood sample was taken after ICU/RICU admission at Persahabatan Hospital. Blood sample was taken consecutively until it reached a minimum of 30 subjects (pilot study). All patients found with mechanical ventilation were included, except for patients with complicated procedure (e.g. avian influenza, multidrug-resistant tuberculosis). Blood sample was analyzed for Mg2+, inorganic phosphate (Pi) and other additional tests. Failure in weaning was defined as reintubation within 48 hours after extubation or failure in the spontaneous breathing trial (SBT).Results: Of the 31 subjects evaluated, there were 3 patients with weaning failure. The median Mg2+ value was 0.5 (0.5-2.6) in successfully weaned patients and 0.6 (0.6-2.7) in patients with weaning failure, lower than its normal value. The mean Pi value was 4.21±1.17 (normal value) in successfully weaned patients and 5.43±0.47 (high value) in patients with weaning failure. Further analysis found that no significant relation was found between weaning and patient’s characteristics other than heart rate and Ca2+, although it was not clear if there were some biases which could affect these results. Low Mg2+ value was observed in 23 subjects, no low Pi value was seen in all subjects, high Mg2+ value was found in 1 subject, high Pi value was observed in 11 subjects, and the rest was in the normal range.Conclusion: The median Mg2+ value in both weaning groups (successful and failed) were below the normal limit at 0.5 (0.5-2.6) and 0.6 (0.6-2.7). Mean Pi value in the successful weaning group was 4.21±1.17 (within normal range), and the value in failed weaning group was 5.43±0.47 (above normal range).

Background: Peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) is one of the pulmonary ventilation parameters that affects quality of life. PEFR is known to be negatively affected by high body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC). This study aimed to determine the correlation of BMI and WC with PEFR in first-year medical undergraduates at Diponegoro University.Methods: This was a cross-sectional study held from October 5th to October 8th, 2020, which measured the BMI, WC, and PEFR of 169 first-year medical students at Diponegoro University. The BMI, WC, and PEFR were assessed using a digital scale, measuring tape, and Mini-Wright peak flow meter (PFM), respectively. Spearman test was used for bivariate analysis, whereas the multiple regression method was used for multivariate analysis. The results are considered significant if P <0,05 for bivariate and F <0,05 for multivariate analysis. The IBM SPSS Statistics 26.0 Software was used for statistical analysis.Results: Most of the subjects had normal BMI, with a mean value of 23.38 (±0.36) kg/m2. As many as 71.6% of the subjects had normal WC. There was a correlation between BMI and PEFR (P = 0.001) with a weak strength (R = 0.260). As for BMI, WC also demonstrated a significant positive correlation (P <0.001) with a weak strength (R = 0.342) towards PEFR. Simultaneously, both BMI and WC had a significant positive correlation (F <0.001) with a weak strength (R = 0.361) towards PEFR.Conclusion: Higher BMI and WC values coincided with higher PEFR values.

Mass vaccination, which is one of the main control policies, provides herd immunity against infectious diseases. This could contribute to the control of the disease and eventually its eradication. The purpose of this study was to investigate the safety and humoral immune response of Brucella melitensis Rev.1 vaccine before the start of mass vaccination. A total of 741 sheep and goats were vaccinated conjunctivally. No adverse effect was observed after the vaccination of the animals. No abortion was seen in pregnant animals. Vaccine strain was isolated from some milk samples taken from only lactating vaccinated goats. Excretion of the vaccine strain was not intense and long-termed. Post-vaccination immune response was evaluated by serological tests, namely, Rose Bengal Plate Test, Serum Agglutination Test and Complement Fixation Test. One month after vaccination, the immune response was high, and the decrease of antibody titers was the highest four to six months after vaccination by inversely correlated with the age of the vaccinated animals. In conclusion, we observed that Brucella melitensis Rev.1 vaccine, used conjunctivally, was safe enough for the animals, and vaccinated animals had high vaccine-induced immune response.

Published: August 2023

The present study was intended to assess the potential of a mature empty pea shell (Pisum sativum) as a feed additive to the common carp (Cyprinus carpio) diet. This study was conducted for 90 days with the inclusion of 15 % pea shells into the feed with one control without pea shells in common carp feed. Pea shell was used as an additive to the feed in three experimental groups (T1, T2, T3) and the control group. In the T1 group, inclusion of pea shell partially replaced the fish meal, in the T2 group − partially replaced the fish meal and de-oiled groundnut cake, in the T3 group − partially replaced the deoiled groundnut cake and fully replaced the de-oiled mustard cake. An increase in the average weight gain was observed in the T3 group (11.17 ± 0.08) with respect to the T1 (10.89 ± 0.11) and T2 (11.05 ± 0.11) groups but lower than that of control (11.84 ± 0.09; at p < 0.05). In the T3 group, the specific growth rate (SGR) was significantly lower (1.04 ± 0.01) than the control (1.08 ± 0.02; at p < 0.05) but not significantly different with T1 (1.01 ± 0.03) and T2 (1.03 ± 0.03) groups. In the T3 group, the feed conversion ratio (FCR) was comparably higher (1.07 ± 0.01) than control (1.01 ± 0.01) but lower than T1 (1.10 ± 0.01) andT2 (1.09 ± 0.01) groups (p < 0.05). The study revealed that the inclusion of pea shells into fish feed can replace plant-based protein sources (mustard cake and groundnut cake).

TOURISM IN UKRAINE IN THE WAR CONDITIONS: THE EUROPEAN INTEGRATION ASPECT
Authors:   Kyiv National University of Technology and Design, Hryhorchuk Daryna
Published: August 2023

The direction of our research is based on the issue of the development of tourism and the European integration course of Ukraine in the conditions of a full-scale Russian invasion. In the paper, the author emphasizes the need for the development of national tourism both in the conditions of war and in the framework of post-war reconstruction. At the same time, the development of tourism should take place strictly within the limits and taking into account the European integration course of Ukraine. Author emphasizes that today, Ukraine faces a task that consists in the contradiction between the need to integrate into the world economy, on the one hand, and to ensure the protection of national interests and security, on the other. That’s why the main aim of our study is the analysis of the development of tourism in the war conditions in the context of the European integration of Ukraine. The paper states, that military actions have a significant negative impact on the tourism industry regions and the whole country. There are reasons for military actions and their impact on tourism security concerns; decrease in demand; infrastructure damage; loss of jobs and a negative image, all of which have a significant impact on development of tourism in Ukraine. At the same time, the author notes that the situation in tourism, as in other sectors of the economy, is closely related to the issue of Ukraine's European course. Thus, the article noted that the experience of European integration of Ukraine in the conditions of war has a unique character. By resisting large-scale armed Russian intervention, suffering from huge human costs and financial and economic losses, the country acquired the status of a candidate for joining the EU, continues European integration in various areas, deepens partnership with the EU in sectoral directions, implements the recommendations of the European Commission and implements the provisions of the Agreement in practice about the association.
SECURITY THINKING: THE UKRAINIAN CONTEXT
Authors:   Ukrainian Catholic University, Liashenko Oleksandra
Published: August 2023

In an increasingly interconnected world, the security landscape has become exponentially more complex. Organizations and individuals face a myriad of threats, from sophisticated attacks to ever-evolving vulnerabilities. In order to successfully navigate this treacherous terrain, it is critical to develop a safety-focused mindset. Taking this proactive approach can pave the way for resilience to complexity, where strong defenses and adaptive strategies work in tandem to protect our security ecosystem. Security Thinking is a proactive approach to analyzing and addressing potential risks and vulnerabilities in order to enhance security measures. It involves a mindset that prioritizes prevention, preparedness, and adaptability to protect against various threats and challenges. Security Thinking encourages individuals and organizations to consider security implications at every level, from technology and processes to human behavior, promoting a resilient and secure environment. It is a continuous and dynamic process that seeks to stay ahead of emerging threats and evolve in response to changing security landscapes. At the same time, there is another definition. Security Mindset is an individual's or organization's way of thinking that places a strong emphasis on security and risk management. It involves being proactive in identifying potential threats, vulnerabilities, and weaknesses in systems, processes, and behaviors. Developing a security mindset is not an end point, but a continuous journey. Using intellectual rigor and an innovative spirit, you can significantly influence the formation of a security ecosystem. The principles of resilience to complexity and a holistic approach to security, guided by a security-centric mindset, are becoming a dynamic force in protecting the security ecosystem. By integrating physical security, modernized legislation, social engineering, data privacy protection and psychological security, we can build a fortress against a wide range of threats. However, the unprecedented challenges associated with Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine have significantly complicated the architecture of modern security, creating a need for the development of a new paradigm of security thinking and practical tools for its application.

Sandy texture soils have a great expression in agricultural areas worldwide. In the Baixada Fluminense, soils with a sandy texture on the surface horizons are striking, and a good part of these areas is destined for producing vegetables using conventional cultivation methods. The sandy texture is one of the great challenges for agriculture due to the low water retention capacity provided to the soil, the rapid decomposition of organic matter, and the intense loss of nutrients by leaching. In these areas, the action of erosive processes is sometimes observed, whether water or wind erosion. The practices carried out in conventional agriculture can accentuate these processes. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of different soil management systems, with different vegetation covers, on the pathways of aggregate formation, the nutrient contents contained therein, and the organic matter fractions, with the objective of using these properties as indicators of soil quality. The study was carried out in an organic production unit, with no-till system (NT) and conventional system (CT), three vegetal covers were evaluated, namely; seed cocktail 1 (C1) (Crotalaria (Crotalaria juncea) (20 kg ha
-1
), Jack Bean (Canavalia ensiformis) (150 kg ha
-1
) and millet (Pennisetum glaucum) (60 kg ha
-1
)), and seed cocktail 2 (C2) (with 50 % of the amount of seeds used in C1), and spontaneous plants (S. P). Undisturbed samples were collected at the layers of 0.00-0.05 and 0.05-0.10 m, and, from these samples, aggregates with a diameter between 9.7 and 8.0 mm were classified according to the formation route (Biogenic or Physicogenic). From these, the chemical properties were quantified (pH, Ca
2+
, Mg
2+
, Al
3+
, P, Na
+
, K
+
), and also the carbon fractions (total organic carbon – TOC, mineral-associated organic carbon – MAOC), particulate organic carbon – POC, and free light fraction carbon – LFC). Based on the results, it was verified that the percentage of biogenic aggregates was higher than the physicogenic one in the layer of 0.00-0.05 m, not being verified influences of the vegetal coverage or the management system. Chemical properties did not differ significantly between training pathways. The CT, for the most part, was the system in which the highest values of chemical properties were observed, and in general, the C2 and S.P coatings were the ones that provided the greatest improvements for chemical properties and carbon content.

Authors: Subekti Dimas , Wahid Makmun
Published: August 2023

The formation of political party coalitions can be applied productively to patronage democracy, but this requires a broader comprehensive study and the addition of new conceptualizations. Therefore, this study aims to determine the development of research on the theme of political party coalition behavior from 2015 to 2021 indexed by Scopus. This study uses a scoping review method. The source of this research data comes from the Scopus database. The findings in this study that the coalition behavior of political parties will not be separated from the topic of voting behavior and the electoral system, this is evident in this study. The political parties in building coalitions must consider the level of electability by looking at behavior in the voters. Moreover, the electoral system will determine whether political parties need to form coalitions or not if they want to participate in electoral contestation. Furthermore, parliamentary elections and proportional representation are topics that have opportunities as novelties for future research related to this themes. Furthermore, Indonesia (southeast asia), Spain, Norway (Europa), Uruguay and Colombia (South America) have recently paid great attention to research on the political parties coalition behavior. The implications of the findings of this study are as a form of a reference for knowledge regarding the study of political parties. More than that, it is important to describe these findings because they can classify world research which so far has only been limited to individual findings.

Lizardite slime coating is one of significant factors in the deterioration of the floatability of sulphide minerals. In this study, a nanoparticle cationic polystyrene-co-poly(n-butylacrylate)(PS-PBNH) collector was introduced to eliminate the negative impact of lizardite slimes in pyrite flotation. Microflotation results demonstrated that lizardite slims did not affect the recovery of pyrite in the presence of PS-PBNH. Good flotation separation of pyrite from lizardite was achieved when the nanoparticle PS-PBNH collector was used. The results from adsorption study indicated that PS-PBNH exhibited a significant adsorption on the pyrite surface in the presence of lizardite slimes. Sedimentation tests showed that hetero-aggregation occurred between lizardite slimes and pyrite, whereas the introduction of PS-PBNH collector resulted in a heterogeneous dispersion between them. Zeta potential measurements suggested that PS-PBNH collector interacted with pyrite surface, and the PS-PBNH adsorption changed the surface charge of pyrite from negative to be positive. As a result, the interaction of pyrite with lizardite shifted from electrostatic attraction to electrostatic repulsion, as supported by the DLVO calculations. These results indicated PS-PBNH can be used as a potential collector for pyrite flotation in pyrite/lizardite slimes system without the need for a depressant.

If $(X,Y)$ is a partition of the vertices of a graph $G=(V,E)$ and there are $k$ edges joining vertices in $X$ to vertices in $Y$, then $(X,Y)$ is an edge separation of $G$ of order $k$. The graph $G$ is $(n,k)$-edge connected, if whenever $(X,Y)$ is an edge separation of $G$ of order at most $k$, then either $X$ or $Y$ has at most $n$ elements. We prove that if $G$ is cubic and $(n,k)$-edge connected, then one can find edges to delete so that the resulting graph is $(6n+2,k)$-edge connected. We find an explicit bound on the size of a cubic graph that is minimal in the immersion order with respect to having carving-width $k$. The techniques we use generalise techniques used to prove similar theorems for other structures. In an attempt to develop a unified setting we set up an axiomatic framework to describe certain classes of connectivity functions. We prove a theorem for such classes that gives sufficient conditions to enable a bound on the size of members that are minimal with respect to having branch-width greater than $k$. As well as proving the above mentioned result for edge connectivity in this setting, we prove (known) bounds on the size of excluded minors for the classes of matroids and graphs of branch-width $k$. We also bound the size of a connectivity function that has branch-width greater than $k$ and is minimal with respect to an operation known as elision.

This article was written with the aim of examining Ibn Rushd's thoughts in bringing together religion and philosophy. Ibn Rushd views that there was a peaceful relationship between sharia and philosophy because apart from placing the two as a means of achieving the truth and affirming that they supported each other, not deny each other in the form of the principle of unification. That means, both were in one goal, namely to find the truth. The research method used by the author was library research. While the results of the study explained that in Ibn Rushd's view, to bring together philosophy and religion, a tool was needed, namely the mind. Ibn Rushd gave his own area of ??work on revelation and the intellect (ratio) and tried to link the two through his theory of takwil. Takwil was used to bridge the difference between the meaning of textuality and rational understanding.

Authors: Saphira Nadia , Rohmah Miftahur
Published: August 2023

This article discusses the value of religious moderation in Abul Kalam Azad in QS. al-Fatihah. The value of moderation is implied in the lafadz al-hamd which describes the nature of divinity in growing humanity. The problem formulation of this article is how is Abul Kalam Azad's interpretation related to QS. al-Fatihah? And how is the contextualization of this interpretation if it is applied in the realm of Indonesia? This article is a literature study using the analytical-descriptive method of data related to the study theme. The findings from this article are that the main religious concept of Abul Kalam Azad in QS. al-Fatihah which consists of Mahmud, Alhamd, Rab al- ‘alamin, Malikiyaum al-din, sirat al- Mustaqim there is a value of religious moderation that fosters tolerance of religious harmony implied in the lafadz al-hamd. This article confirms the interpretation of al-hamd as the concept of humanizing humans which is contextualized in the realm of Indonesia. Thus, it is very relevant to grow an interpretation based on the value of religious moderation in Indonesia.

The Qur'an was the handbook of Muslims to guide and direct the lives of Muslims throughout the world. In addition, the Al-Quran was also a basic reference or source in determining law in all aspects of life. Muslims were required to read, study, and practice the contents of the Qur'an. The existence of the Qur'an began to appear since the messenger of Allah Swt, namely Muhammad bin Abdullah Saw, received revelations sent through the angel Gabriel to inform orders, prohibitions, news, descriptions of unseen things and tell the previous people and determine the law for an incident that occurred. there at that time. The essence of studying the Koran was to understand deeply and in detail about the Koran, so the right effort for this was to understand asbabun nuzul. This study used a descriptive qualitative method with a focus on literature study. Thus, this study explained in detail about Nuzulul Qur'an, Sabab An-Nuzul and Tafsir Ilmi.

An Investigation into the Primary and Subharmonic Resonances of the Swing Equation
Authors: Sofroniou Anastasia , Premnath Bhairavi
Published: August 2023

A study is conducted to obtain a deeper insight into the primary and subharmonic resonances of the swing equation. The primary resonance, which can result in increased oscillatory responses, voltage instability, and potential system collapse, happens when the external disturbance frequency coincides with the natural frequency of the system. Subharmonic resonance occurs when the disturbance frequency is an integer fraction of the natural frequency, leading to low-frequency oscillations and possible equipment damage. The purpose of this study is to provide an extension of the existing literature of the effects of primary resonance and further provide a thorough understanding of subharmonic resonance on the stability of a certain power system paradigm. Motivated by the rich nonlinear dynamical behaviour exhibited by this evergreen model, analytical and numerical techniques are employed to examine the underlying principles, creating an efficient control solution for this resonant-related problem. The main objective of this research is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the primary and subharmonic resonances considering the dynamical and bifurcational behaviour of the underlying swing equation, whereby both analytical and numerical techniques are employed, allowing for an identification of certain precursors to chaos that may lead and cater for the safe operation of practical problems.

Published: August 2023

El objetivo de este estudio es analizar las investigaciones de pregrado en Literatura de una universidad peruana. Se realizó el mapeo sistemático de diez trabajos publicados entre el 2017 y 2022. Los resultados evidencian preferencia por la investigación en literatura peruana y que el género literario más estudiado es el narrativo. Se concluye que en los trabajos no se describen claramente los métodos científicos ni las metodologías de análisis literario; debido a su diversidad, a que los estudios literarios poseen una complejidad interdisciplinaria, y porque los esfuerzos educativos universitarios en investigación se centran en los últimos semestres.
