Authors: Zahwa Imala  , Cucun Sunaengsih  , Aah Ahmad Syahid
Published: August 2024

This research was motivated by elementary school students’ low numeracy literacy ability, especially grade III. The low numeracy literacy of students is caused by students' thinking that mathematics is a complex subject and the selection of learning models that do not develop students' critical thinking skills. Meanwhile, students need good critical thinking and problem-solving skills to answer numeracy literacy questions. This study aims to determine the effect of problem-based learning models on numeracy literacy skills. The research method used in this study is a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental non-equivalent control group design. The samples in this study were grade III A and B students of SD Negeri Sukaraja Wetan I. The research instruments used were numeracy literacy tests, teacher performance observation sheets, and student activity observation sheets. Data analysis techniques used in SPSS version 26 are the t-test, simple linear regression, and N-Gain tests. The results of this study showed the influence of the problem-based learning model on the numeracy literacy ability of elementary school students by 52.8%. In addition, there was a difference in students' numeracy literacy ability, marked by an increase of 41% with the medium category in the experimental class. In contrast, in the control class, there was only an increase in scores of 11% with the low category.

Several articles did not report the outcomes of the innovations, presenting opportunities for further research to evaluate these innovations more deeply.
Dense Colon Scarring After Infliximab for Acute Severe Ulcerative Colitis
Authors: Patel Rahul , Vutukuru Sriya , Dasu Neethi , Snyder Charles
Published: August 2024

Introduction: Infliximab is a monoclonal antibody against tumor necrosis factor alpha used in the treatment of ulcerative colitis. It has been shown to be efficacious in patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis and/or those who have failed intravenous steroids. We present a unique finding of profoundly dense colonic scarring after a year of infliximab therapy in a patient with acute severe ulcerative colitis. Case: A female in her early 60s presented to the hospital with a three month history of rectal bleeding and intermittent fevers. A colonoscopy was done which demonstrated severe Mayo 3 left-sided colitis, consistent with a diagnosis of acute severe ulcerative colitis. After failing mesalamine and intravenous methylprednisolone, she was started on infliximab resulting in marked symptom improvement. She then had a repeat colonoscopy one year later which showed no active ulcerative colitis with a mayo score 0 but profound scarring correlating to the severe initial ulcerations from the previous year. Discussion: During normal pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis, inflammation and ulceration causes the bowel walls to swell and thicken with scar tissue. After treatment with monoclonal antibodies, the mucosa should normally heal without evidence of scar tissue or fibrosis. Despite being at high risk for colectomy, this patient responded well to infliximab. However, further studies and follow ups are needed to determine if the scar tissue in this patient has long term effects. Research is ongoing on how to prevent fibrosis in inflammatory bowel disease.

Authors: Chu Heaven , Tamous Sarah , Kavvi Ashhabal , Khan Amin
Published: August 2024

Diabetes is a chronic health condition that hinders the body’s metabolic process using insulin to maintain glycemic homeostasis. It is prevalent worldwide, with about 10% of the global adult population affected. Socio-economic and cultural factors and determinants make diabetes and diabetes management more of a health risk for certain populations rather than others. The prevalence of diabetes in the United States is higher than the global average and the risk factors disproportionately affect disadvantaged communities. This study was designed to investigate health disparities in diabetes among a diverse population sample. The study included researching the disparities of diabetes patients in South Jersey and designing a service project to help disadvantaged communities. Demographic data from the 2023 census shows that the southern New Jersey counties with higher deaths due to diabetes are also counties with higher percentages of minority populations. Salem and Cumberland county had the highest number of deaths due to diabetes (22 and 28.8 per 100,000, respectively). Both counties also had higher populations of African Americans and Hispanics compared to the other counties. Diabetes can lead to various complications if not properly managed, including heart disease, stroke, kidney damage, nerve damage, and vision problems. As a result, it is critical for people with diabetes to frequently check their blood sugar levels, maintain a nutritious diet, get regular exercise, take their medications as directed, and see doctors on a regular basis. Patients with diabetes can increase quality of life if detected and managed early.

Published: August 2024

Aims This review aims to assess the correlations between outcomes and cost of treatment methods for pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients, specifically comparing CAR T-cell therapy and Standard-of-Care (SoC) therapy. The socioeconomic background of patients will also be taken into consideration to see if there are differences in their outcomes. Methods Peer-reviewed publications were collected from PubMed and Web of Science. The keyword strings used were “acute lymphoblastic leukemia,” “pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia,” “pediatric,” “CAR T-cell therapy,” and “cost-effectiveness.” 27 citations were obtained. Titles were screened by 6 authors. Articles met the inclusion criteria including potential Quality-Adjusted Life Year (QALY) gains, mean price of CAR T-cell therapy and SoC therapy. The outcomes measured were presented in terms of total treatment cost for both CAR T-cell therapy and SoC treatments such as chemotherapy and/or hematopoietic stem-cell transplant. Results In the 6 comparative studies used, the overall cost and QALY of CAR T-cell therapy was higher than the SoC. In 4 of 6 studies, the price per QALY for CAR T-cell therapy was lower than the SoC treatment, ranging from $24,696 - $304,611 less per QALY. In the other 2 studies, the price per QALY for CAR T-cell therapy was higher by $6,452 and $18,874 per QALY. Conclusions Overall, CAR T-cell therapy was more expensive; however, it provided more QALY than other SoC’s. Future studies could determine if and how socioeconomic status, region, and race impact QALY for CAR T-cell, and how to mitigate barriers to access.

Published: August 2024

Uncontrolled diabetes may cause preventable but significant effects. One major preventative measure is early screening; there are hopes that community healthcare workers can increase awareness and screening availability, especially in underserved populations. We hosted and recorded logs of patients at mobile COVID health clinics, educating those with uncontrolled diabetes and connecting them to healthcare. We then looked to see if any patients had improvements in blood glucose to non-diabetic levels. 378 patients were logged, but only 138 were in events that had a significant amount of repeat visits. Twenty-five of them had blood sugar indicative of uncontrolled diabetes. Out of those, there were six patients with uncontrolled diabetes and multiple visits. Four of them had improvements in blood glucose on their most recent visit, with two maintaining persistently high levels of blood glucose. While these preliminary studies show promise in the potential efficacy of CHWs in improving screening and outcomes of uncontrolled diabetes, there is a very limited sample size. Future studies should incorporate more patient logs and explore other chronic conditions commonly undiagnosed in underserved populations such as chronic kidney disease and hypertension.

Assessment of geomechanical properties of Sakhalin shelf reservoirs based on modeling results
Authors: Kerimov V. Yu. , Potemkin G. N. , Shatyrov A. K.
Published: August 2024

Background. Due to the complex tectonic structure of the Sea of Okhotsk shelf and intense geodynamic activity in this area, specialized technologies are required to study reservoir properties. In this work, we implement the technology of secondary permeability estimation using the Kirinskoye and Ayashskoye license blocks as an example. The research objects included structural and lithologic traps of different complexes. It was found that the Prisakhalin shelf, including the Kirinsky and Ayashsky license areas, is subject to the modern shear stress field with the sublatitude-oriented axis of maximum compression. This initiates the formation of a local stress field, launches changes in the degree of fracture openness, and determines the secondary porosity and permeability of rocks. 3D modeling allowed us to calculate predicted permeability for each stratigraphic horizon. A significant difference of secondary permeability in the upper and lower stratigraphic horizons is noted.

Aim. To evaluate secondary filtration and capacitance properties of reservoirs by geomechanical modeling.

Materials and methods. Geomechanical modeling to assess the filtration and capacitance properties of Sakhalin shelf reservoirs was carried out using the ROXAR software package.

Results. This work allowed not only the filtration efficiency to be predicted, but also the processes occurring in the geological section of the shelf of the Sea of Okhotsk to be elucidated.

Published: August 2024

Background. The main aspects of the influence of suction pressure on slope stability are considered; an example of calculations in the Plaxis software is presented. Specific features in the behavior of unsaturated and saturated soils are described. A model for describing the behavior of saturated soil under the influence of suction pressure is proposed.

Aim. Soviet hydrophysic and soil scientists actively explored the relationship between capillary-sorption (structural or matrix) water pressure in the soil and humidity. However, the introduction of foreign methods and software based thereon into the engineering and geological practice of calculating the stability of slopes has raised the question about the influence of suction pressure of clay soils on the stability of slopes.

Materials and methods. The main research material was loams of the Moscow glaciation. Simulation was carried out based on the Muallem — van Genuchten model.

Results. The simulation results showed that suction pressure and capillarity directly affect the slope stability coefficient, provided that the similarity of other model parameters.

REGTECH AS A REGULATORY PARADIGM IN THE DIGITAL FINANCIAL SPACE: CAUSES OF EMERGENCE AND MANIFESTATIONS
Authors:   State Tax University, Biryuk Dmytro
Published: August 2024

This article explores the emergence and development trends of RegTech as a new regulatory paradigm in the digital financial space. The rise of RegTech is associated with: The need for post-crisis regulatory changes; The need to update risk management required additional data disclosure from regulated entities. Innovative advancements in data science (e.g., artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning) that enable structuring of unstructured data; The economic needs of regulatory process participants to minimize the rapid growth of compliance costs. The regulators' desire to enhance the effectiveness of supervisory tools.RegTech encompasses three groups of participants: Financial institutions and corporations, especially large financial institutions in developed countries. National regulators facing the need for new monitoring and control technologies.Supranational regulators facing the challenge of a radical and rapid transformation of the global financial system and the need to update their regulatory infrastructure. RegTech largely emerged in response to the needs of financial corporations seeking to reduce compliance costs. Today, RegTech focuses on digitizing manual reporting processes and personalizing service delivery, which provides significant cost savings for both the financial services industry and regulatory and supervisory bodies. The potential of RegTech lies in providing a proportional, near-real-time regulatory regime, as well as promoting much more effective compliance with regulatory requirements by regulated entities – financial corporations. Currently, regulators rely not on the internal risk management system of individual financial institutions to ensure an adequate level of capital for economic, regulatory, and accounting purposes, but have established complex rules for setting capital, maintaining leverage, and liquidity at levels sufficient to protect financial stability, supported by periodic reviews and stress tests. Financial corporations can effectively meet these requirements using RegTech.

One of the important sources of financing the state budget is foreign trade. Even before the start of fullscale aggression, Ukraine had certain tasks to diversify regional foreign trade priorities. The expansion and deepening of foreign economic cooperation between Ukraine and the European Union, the start of work on new Asian markets, significantly overshadowed first the drop in trade volumes, and then the cessation of trade with Russia. The article examines in detail the foreign trade relations of Ukraine and the countries of the Asian continent. Consider the system of legal regulation of foreign trade relations of Ukraine and the countries of the Asian continent. The main indicators of trade in goods and services of Ukraine and Asian countries were examined in detail, and the commodity structure of trade in goods and services of Ukraine and Asian countries was analyzed. Certain conclusions and recommendations are provided: Ukraine has a generally favorable position in trade in goods with these countries, except for China. This is evidenced by the constant positive balance in trade with Turkey, India and Saudi Arabia. Trade with China has a permanent negative balance. At the same time, a significant threat is the significant coverage ratio in trade with these countries. The value of this indicator significantly exceeds the safety limit and indicates the high dependence of Ukrainian exports on the markets of these countries. Ukraine conducts active trade in services with Asian countries, but the composition of the main partners in trade in services has changed. It remains Turkey, as well as Cyprus, UAE, Israel. In trade in services, the situation for Ukraine is unfavorable, which is evidenced by a constant negative balance and an extremely low level of the coverage ratio. The composition of trade in services is traditional both for Ukraine and for partner countries: Ukraine exports transport services to Cyprus, the UAE and Turkey, Ukraine imports travel-related services from Cyprus, the UAE and Turkey, as well as transport services from the UAE and Turkey and Israel. These services fully correspond to the geographical location of the countries.

Perusahaan manufaktur merupakan perusahaan yang mengolah bahan baku menjadi suatu produk yang dapat dijual untuk memperoleh keuntungan. Tujuan utama perusahaan adalah mencari laba yang maksimal dan meminimalkan biaya. PT. Cipta Sarana Kenayu Lestari adalah salah satu perusahaan manufaktur yang bergerak dalam bidang kosmetik. Produk-produk yang dihasilkannya digunakan untuk menambah kecantikan wajah dan tubuh para kosumennya. Bahan baku didatangkan langsung dari pemasok yang lokasinya cukup dekat dengan pabrik perusahaan. Pemenuhan kebutuhan produksi didasarkan pada perkiraan produksi tahun sebelumnya, padahal sering terjadi perubahan produksi sehingga dapat menyebabkan penumpukan bahan baku yang berlebih di gudang. Penumpukan ini dapat menyebabkan biaya penyimpanan yang cukup tinggi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dalam pengendalian sediaan bahan baku PT. Cipta Sarana Kenayu Lestari masih menggunakan metode manajemen tradisional dalammengolah sediaan bahan bakunya walaupun perusahaan sudah menentukan sedikit pemasok untuk bahan baku yang dibutuhkannya tanpa menjalin kontrak jangka panjang. Pengendalian persediaan bahan baku untuk proses produksi di PT. Cipta Sarana Kenayu Lestari pada penelitian ini menggunakan metode Just In Time dalam proses pemesanan dan penyimpanan sediaan bahan bakunya.Metode ini digunakan untuk meminimalkan biaya produksi sediaan bahan baku sehingga proses produksi berjalan lancar dengan biaya sediaan bahan baku minimum tanpa adanya pemborosan. Pada penelitian ini dengan menggunakan perhitungan pengendalian persediaan bahan baku dengan metode Just In Time hasil analisis yang didapatkan bahwa Total Inventory Cost dari perusahaan untuk empat bahan baku yang digunakan dalam proses produksi bedak Denise Larusso adalah talc sebesar 34,63% atau sebesar Rp 6.547.602, mica sebesar 34,64% atau sebesar Rp 7.368.787, titanium dioxide sebesar 36,89% atau sebesar Rp 5.422.881 dan silicon sebesar 34,23% atau sebesar Rp 1.242.290 dan dapat meningkatkan laba perusahaan sebesar Rp 36.173.295. Sebaiknya dalam pengelolaan sediaan bahan baku PT. Cipta Sarana Kenayu menggunakan metode Just In Time, karena dapat meningkatkan efisiensi biaya produksi terhadap sediaan bahan baku serta dapat meningkatkan laba sebesar dari efisiensi tersebut.

Resource allocation in the cloud environment for 5G applications can be explained by referring to the strategic distribution and necessary assignment of computing resources such as virtual machines, storage, and network bandwidth that meet the dynamic demands of applications and services. The framework proposed is on resource allocation in the cloud environment by BRoML for 5G applications. In the proposed BRoML model, the Backtracking Regularized model is incorporated for the effective calculation of the resources in the cloud environment. The optimization is performed for the effective computation of resources in the cloud environment through the computed resources. Using the estimated optimized values, a machine learning model can be trained and tested to classify resource allocation. In this regard, the simulation analysis is compared to BRoML with traditional schemes like SVM and RF. The result shows that BRoML has a higher resource utilization while exhibiting lower latency, higher increased throughput, and a better efficiency score overall. Machine learning techniques and optimization mechanisms give flexibility and intelligence to BRoMl in solving resource allocation issues within cloud computing. These results reinforce the view that BRoML can create a strong impact on the development process of cloud computing with its dynamic, intelligent solution in resource allocation optimization under various scenarios.

Abstract    
The red dragon fruit peel contains fiber, antioxidants and bioactive compounds, including flavonoid compounds which have antioxidant properties. This research aims to determine the ability of 96% ethanol and 96% methanol solvents to extract flavonoids. Red dragon fruit peel powder was extracted using ethanol and methanol with the maceration. Red dragon fruit peel extract was analyzed qualitatively using the thin layer chromatography (TLC) method. The results of the flavonoid screening research showed that both methanol and ethanol extract of red dragon peel contained flavonoid according to color change after FeCl3 addition showed a change in the color of the extract to blackish green. The TLC results showed that there were purple yellow stains and the Rf value of 96% ethanol extract of red dragon fruit peel was 0.92 and 96% methanol extract was 0.95  the comparison standard (quercetin) obtained a value of 0.87. From the results of the Rf value, it shows that there are flavonoid compounds in red dragon fruit peel extract. It can be concluded that 96% ethanol and 96% methanol solvents are able to extract red dragon fruit peel flavonoids using the thin layer chromatography (TLC).
