ACTIVE POWER LOSS REDUCTION BY BETTER-QUALITY PARTICLE SWARM OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM
Authors: Lenin K.
Published: October 2020

In this paper Better-Quality Particle Swarm Optimization (BPSO) algorithm is proposed to solve the optimal reactive power Problem. Proposed algorithm is obtained by combining particle swarm optimization (PSO), Cauchy mutation and an evolutionary selection strategy. The idea is to introduce the Cauchy mutation into PSO in the hope of preventing PSO from trapping into a local optimum through long jumps made by the Cauchy mutation. In order to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed Better-Quality Particle Swarm Optimization (BPSO) algorithm, it has been tested on IEEE 57 bus system. Simulation Results show’s that BPSO is more efficient than other reported algorithms in reducing the real power loss.

Authors: Mbosowo Etukudo , Ebinimitei Simon
Published: October 2020

The effect of different soil conditions on some physiological indices of Costus afer was studied in two locations (Otuoke and Opolo) in Bayelsa State, Nigeria. The soils physico-chemical properties as well as mineral elements and phytochemical contents in leaf samples were assessed using standard procedure. The descending order of mineral elements in location I were, P > Ca > Mg > K > C > H > AI >Na > N, while that of location 2 were, P > Ca > C > K >Al >H > Mg > Na > N. The contents of calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, nitrogen and phosphorus in leaves of C. afer in location I were significantly (P < 0.05) higher than those of location 2, while the iron, zinc and lead contents in leaves of the test plant in location 1 were relatively higher than that of location 2. There were also marked variations in phyto chemical contents in leaves of the test plant between the two locations. This study indicates that soil factors have a considerable influence on the mineral elements and phytochemical contents of Costus afer.

Authors: Noveri Irsadunas , Najib Khairun , Yusuf M.
Published: October 2020

The growth of the population requires space to accommodate human activities. The development aims to provide a space for humans, but it has an impact on the decreasing green open space. The majority of previous research examines the policy, policy implementation, community support/ involvement, and the need for green open space. While this study examines the management and the factors of the management of public green open space, the research uses a descriptive qualitative method by utilizing primary data through interviews and observations and is supported by secondary data, such as reports, rules, and research results. This study found that the management of green open space, and regulations were available at the regional level; however, for the fulfilment of public green open space only reached 10.76% while still lacking 9.24% because the management faces the substance and technical problems. To fix these deficiencies requires a master plan and a strong leadership commitment to realize these deficiencies.
Asssessing Public Private Partnership in Indonesia Tourism
Authors: Rhama Bhayu , Setiawan Ferry
Published: October 2020

Several studies have shown significant development in Indonesia tourism; however, works of literature that focus on the extent of successful stakeholders’ participation in Indonesia tourism are hard to be found. This study aims to determine the success of public-private partnership (PPP) in the development of tourism in Indonesia and uses a descriptive qualitative methodology by conducting a literature study on previous studies related to tourism development in Indonesia, which adopted the concept of PPP in 2012. The research result shows that the PPP concept can be effectively carried out in tourist destination development programs and tourist infrastructure improvement programs. In addition, several targets must be set to achieve the success of public private partnership in the development of tourism in Indonesia, namely: 1) creating competitive tourism globally or nationally, 2) creating cooperative tourism focusing on the service and tourist destination infrastructure, 3) creating tourism that has unique characteristics based on its natural conditions so it has its own identity.
Examining Inter-organizational Network During Emergency Response of Gunungkidul Drought 2019
Authors: Wicaksono Agung
Published: October 2020

Drought is a disaster that often occurs in Gunungkidul Regency, where the condition was exacerbated by the occurrence of a long drought in 2019 (BMKG, 2019). Beside climatic and geological factors, drought is also caused by the involvement of multi-stakeholders, including local governments in managing drought emergency conditions. This research presented a case study on drought disaster management in Gunungkidul in 2019, where qualitative and social network analysis research methods were applied. Social network analysis was used to examine the central actors of the organizations involved in drought management and the role of networks in these levels of government. Meanwhile, qualitative methods were used to explore the factors influencing the network. The results show that the central actors during the emergency response were BPBD, PMI, and PDAM of Gunungkidul Regency. Meanwhile, the role of inter-organizational networks at the district level had been optimized by performing command and control over developments in the situation, involving community organizations and business institutions. Furthermore, on the factors affecting the network, everything had been maximized except two factors that were still lacking, including partnerships and the use of sophisticated information technology.
Investigation of graphite effect on the mechanical and tribological properties of Al 7075-SiC-graphite hybrid metal matrix composites
Authors: ATLA SRIDHAR , Kaujala Prasanna Lakshmi
Published: October 2020

The aluminium metal matrix composite reinforced with ceramic material of Silicon carbide (SiC) has good mechanical properties. However, aluminium based ceramic composites require improvements in their lubrication and tribological properties. In this study an attempt is made in the development of a new material through powder metallurgy technique by the addition of Graphite, which acts as a solid lubricant. This work investigated the inﬂuence of graphite on the wear behaviour of Al 7075/SiC /X wt.% graphite(X=0, 5 and 10) hybrid composite. The investigation reveals the effectiveness of incorporation of graphite in the composite for gaining wear reduction. The Al 7075 (aluminium alloy 7075) reinforced with SiC –graphite were investigated. The composites were fabricated using powder metallurgy route. The microstructures, material combination, wear and friction properties were analysed by scanning electron microscopy, XRD, and pin-on-disc wear tester. The newly developed aluminium composite has signiﬁcant improvements in tribological properties with a combination of 5% Silicon carbide (SiC) and 5% Graphite. The test reveals that sliding distance of 1000 m and sliding speed of 1.5 m/s with applied load of 5 N result in minimum wear loss of 0.01062g and coefficient of friction as 0.1278.
Dry sliding friction and wear behavior of hybrid glass - carbon fiber reinforced PA66/PTFE composites
Authors: B M Rudresh , B N Ravikumar , D Madhu
Published: October 2020

The tribological response and the frictional effects in dry sliding wear behaviour of hybrid Glass –Carbon composites under the action of sliding load and sliding velocity was studied. The material systems considered for the investigation were PA66/PTFE blend (80/20 wt. %), Blend(PA66/PTFE)/10 wt.% short glass fiber (SGF), Blend (PA66/PTFE)/10 wt.% short carbon fiber (SCF) and Blend (PA66/PTFE)/10 wt.% SGF/10 wt.% SCF (GC).These composites were produced using melt mixing method through extrusion and followed by injection molding. The experimentation was conducted as per ASTM G99 method. The experimentation data revealed that the significant wear resistance was exhibited by Glass-Carbon hybrid composites under the action of all the test parameters. This is attributed to the hybrid effect of fibres which may restrict the early reaching of softening point of polymers thereby preventing melting wear. Further, the formation of uniform and defined transfer polymer substrate on the steel disc surface reduced the frictional effects. Further, Blend/SCF composites were better than Blend/SGF composites. The composites studied were sensitive to applied normal load compared to velocity. The combined matrix and fiber wear were credited to the critical wear volume loss. Fiber misalignment, matrix deformation, melting wear and fiber peeling were some of the failure mechanisms observed in the morphological study of hybrid composites through SEM images.

Marriage is identical with happiness, every couple who goes through marriage hopes that their marriage will go well. To achieve this requires readiness, both in terms of thinking and financial maturity. A good age according to experts, a person to get married is 25 years for men and 21 years for women. But unfortunately many in the marriage community occur at a very young age, which we often call early marriage. . Based on the National Population and Family Planning Agency (BKKBN) the number of child marriages (18 years and under) in Indonesia is increasing. Early marriages occur usually not based on mature considerations, but are more dominated by personal needs, family economic factors, educational factors, hereditary adat factors, and mental factors of adolescents. Persuasive communication is one of the effective communication methods to influence someone in this case persuasive communication with video media is expected to be able to influence the public to suppress underage marriages. Data collection methods in this case use the Design Thingking method. the design of public service video advertisements about the risk of early marriage in West Lombok is Soft Sell, namely the concept of conveying the contents of messages indirectly to the intended target audience, and also having a comedy or comedy genre concept in it. The concepts used to influence the audience include the choice of color, font and also every scene in the video. For the color itself the authors use bright colors, cheerful and pleasant, also the selection of fonts that look relaxed and light. so this public service ad is easy to remember and influences the target audience following the advice in the campaign video.

Authors: Azmi Syukur , Nuryartono Nunung , Binenbaum Eran
Published: October 2020

Village funds is still a new fiscal policy that was initially launched in 2015 by the seventh president of Indonesia, “Joko Widodo”, as his pilot project. Some villages have significantly benefited from developments and improvements initiated by the policy. However, it also has been identified through various investigative analysis that not all village funds allocations transferred to local governments have been implemented effectively and efficiently. This research examines the relationship between the village funds allocations and poverty alleviation in Aceh province, Indonesia. Using a panel data model that provides random-effects estimations, it concludes the village funds allocations from the period of 2015 to 2018 cannot reduce the poverty rate in 23 regencies/municipalities in Aceh. Fiscal variables, government expenditure and government own revenue have also shown a positive relationship with the poverty rate. Furthermore, with fixed-effects estimation, village funds allocations also show the same result of its relationship with the number of people living in poverty. Meanwhile, one fiscal variable, GDRP has a negative and significant relationship with the number of people living in poverty. Some social variables, such as education and population have also had significant and negative effects on the poverty rate and the number of people living in poverty.
Câbirî’nin İ‘câzu’l-Kur’ân Anlayışının Tahlil ve Tenkidi
Authors: ORAL Hüseyin
Published: October 2020

Muhammed Âbid el-Câbirî (1935-2010), son dönemin önemli mütefekkirlerindendir. Fehmü’l-Kur’âni’l-Hakîm isimli üç ciltlik tefsiri ve Kur’an’a dair yazdığı Medhal ile’l-Kur’âni’l-Kerîm adlı eseri, tefsir ilmi açısın-dan Cabiri’nin önemini bir kat daha artırmaktadır. Bu çalışma, Câbirî’nin Kur’ân’ın i‘câzına dair görüşle-rini gerekçeleriyle ortaya koymayı ve eleştirel bir bakış açısıyla tahlil etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Câbirî’ye göre Kur’ân’ın, Kureyş’i en çok etkileyen yönlerinden biri nazmıydı. Bu nazım, daha önce duydukları hiçbir söze benzememesine rağmen onlar inanmamakta direndiler. Allah da onlara önce Kur’ân’ın tümünün, ardından on sûrenin ve nihayet tek bir sûrenin benzerini getirmeleri hususunda meydan okudu. Ku-reyş’liler bu tehaddîler karşısında âciz kalınca Kur’ân’ın mu‘ciz yönü ortaya çıkmış oldu. Ayrıca -Câbirî’ye göre- Kur’ân’ın i‘câzında, belagat ve fesahatine ilaveten okunuş tarzının da etkisi söz konusudur. “Tec-vid” ve “tertil” şeklinde isimlendirilen bu okuyuş tarzı Kur’ân’ın bir parçasıdır. Bunun yanında Kur’ân’ın önceki peygamberlere verilen hissî mucizeleri neshettiğini düşünen Câbirî, Hz. Peygamber’in tek mucize-sinin Kur’ân olduğunu ifade etmekte ve aktarılan diğer olağanüstü hadiseleri kabul etmemektedir. Ancak bu meselede Câbirî’yi büyük oranda etkileyen İbn Rüşd’ün görüşünün hem daha isabetli hem de daha tutarlı olduğu görülmektedir.
İslâm Bilimlerinin Oluşum ve Gelişiminde Kur’ân’ın Rolü Üzerine
Authors: ERSÖZ Resul
Published: October 2020

Kur’ân, bir medeniyet projesi olan İslâm’ın temel kaynağı olarak insanlığın önüne yepyeni ufuklar açmış-tır. Onun öncelikli hedefi, ictimâiyât ve ahlak olmakla birlikte, bünyesinde, ilim/bilim gibi medeniyetin temel unsurların¬dan bazı kodlar barındırmaktadır. İşte bu makalede, Müslümanların bilim¬leri sahiplen-mesini ve geliştirmesini sağlayan faktörlerin başında yer alan söz konusu Kur’ânî kod ve referanslar ele alınacaktır. İslâm bilimleri ile kastımız, Müslümanların alıp geliştirdikleri bilimlerdir. Zira kanaatimizce bilimlerin herhangi bir dine yahut etnik guruba aidiyeti söz konusu değildir. İslâm bilimlerinin milâdî 8. yüzyıl ile 13. yüzyıl ara¬sında zirve yaptığı ve bunun bilimler tarihinin beş yüz yıllık altın çağına tekabül ettiği inkâr edilemez bir gerçektir. İslâm medeniyeti adına sağlanan bu gelişmede Kur’ân, akla, tefekküre ve irade hürriyetine yaptığı atıf ile ba¬şat faktördür. Bu bağlamda Kur’ân’ın insana sağladığı diğer bir kaza-nım, onun, doğru bir dünya-âhiret dengesi kurabilmesidir. Çünkü Kur’ân’dan mülhem sahih din tanım-laması bunu gerektirir. Bu makalede, Kur’ân’ın bilim üretmede Müslümanlara sağladığı katkıların açık-lanması hedeflenmiştir ve bu, diğer dinlerle mukayeseli bir şekilde yapı¬lacaktır. Diğer bir hedefimiz de, Müslümanların bilimler tarihindeki yerine ve modern bilimlere olan katkılarına temas etmektir.

Do People Agree on How Positive Emotions are Expressed? A Survey of Four Emotions and Five Modalities across 11 Cultures
Authors: Manokara Kunalan , Đurić Mirna , Fischer Agneta , Sauter Disa
Published: October 2020

While much is known about how negative emotions are expressed in different modalities, our understanding of the nonverbal expressions of positive emotions remains limited. In the present research, we draw upon disparate lines of theoretical and empirical work on positive emotions, and systematically examine which channels are thought to be used for expressing four positive emotions: feeling moved, gratitude, interest, and triumph. Employing the intersubjective approach, an established method in cross-cultural psychology, we first explored how the four positive emotions were reported to be expressed in two North American community samples (Studies 1a & 1b: n = 1466). We next confirmed the cross-cultural generalizability of our findings by surveying respondents from ten countries that diverged on cultural values (Study 2: n = 1826). Feeling moved was thought to be signaled with facial expressions, gratitude with the use of words, interest with words, face and voice, and triumph with body posture, vocal cues, facial expressions, and words. These findings provide cross-culturally consistent findings of differential expressions across positive emotions. Notably, positive emotions were thought to be expressed via modalities that go beyond the face.

Few studies have examined the genetic and environmental pathways through which formal daycare attendance and school readiness are associated. The purpose of this study was to explore if daycare attendance could moderate genetic and environmental contributions to school readiness. A sample of 648 (85% White; 50% Female) pairs of twins was used to compute a GxE, CxE and ExE interaction analyses. Each standard deviation of formal daycare intensity (high number of hours per week), but not age of onset decreased the contribution of shared environment (-0.13) but not genes or unique environment to school readiness. The results support the hypothesis that daycare acts as a normalizing environment, possibly buffering the negative effects from low-quality home environments on cognitive abilities.

Authors: Ghoddousi Saeed , Anderson Austin , Rezaie Behnaz
Published: October 2020

Life without water is not possible on the earth, while modern humans need water not only for drinking, sanitization, and agriculture but also for industrial activities including electricity and cooling generations. Hence, emphasis on water sustainability through different sectors including thermoelectric and cooling plants is an intelligent strategy while the tight connections of water and energy guide study towards energy-water nexus investigations. Cooling towers are equipment for dissipating the excess heat by water evaporation or they hidden gates for wasting water. The objective of the present study is to elaborate on the role of cooling towers in improving environment sustainability by presenting various methods of energy and water modeling, categorizing various methods for modifying water and energy consumptions through past studies and mapping future studies. regarding cooling towers. Presenting a history of energy-water modeling methods of cooling towers, the Markel, the Poppe, and the effectiveness– Number of Transfer Unit (NTU) models, has followed by assessing the environmental impact of cooling towers in the form of excess water consumption, plume, and energy usage. Summarizing and organizing the past efforts for upgrading water management in cooling towers have been in two directions either providing more water supply, or modifications of the cooling tower to use less water. Then the different methodologies for each direction are introduced for further elaborations. This study’s practical outcome is proposing the methods of improving water sustainability for any cooling towers from past studies to assist engineers in the industry in modifying cooling towers water consumption. Showing the roadmap for the planning future investigations on the cooling towers based on the past efforts is another outcome of the present study to provide an insight for academia with research interest on cooling towers.
An Exploration of Error-Driven Learning in Simple Two-Layer Networks From a Discriminative Learning Perspective
Authors: Hoppe Dorothée B. , Hendriks Petra , Ramscar Michael , van Rij Jacolien
Published: October 2020

Error-driven learning algorithms, which iteratively adjust expectations based on prediction error, are the basis for a vast array of models in the brain and cognitive sciences that often differ widely in their precise form and application: historically, they range from simple models in psychology and cybernetics to current complex deep learning models dominating discussions in machine learning and artificial intelligence. However, despite the ubiquity of this mechanism, detailed theoretical analyses of its basic workings uninfluenced by existing theories or specific research goals are rare in the literature. To address this, we present an exposition and theoretical analysis of error-driven learning - focusing on its simplest form for clarity - and relate this to the historical development of error-driven learning models in the cognitive sciences. Although historically error-driven models have been thought of as associative, such that learning is thought to combine preexisting elemental representations, this analysis will highlight the discriminative nature of learning in these models and the implications of this for the way how learning is conceptualized. We complement our theoretical exposition of error-driven learning with a practical guide to the application of simple error-driven learning models in which we discuss a number of example simulations, that are presented in detail in an accompanying tutorial.
Climatology and Forest Phenology during 1984-2013 around Western Lake Superior, USA.
Authors: Garcia Matthew
Published: October 2020

Landsat has a history of use in the diagnosis of land surface phenology, vegetation disturbance, and their impacts on numerous forest biological processes. Studies have connected remote sensing-based phenology to surface climatological patterns, often using average temperatures and derived growing degree day accumulations. I present a detailed examination of remotely sensed forest phenology in the region of western Lake Superior, USA, based on a comprehensive climatological assessment and 1984-2013 Landsat imagery. I use this climatology to explain both the mean annual land surface phenological cycle and its interannual variability in temperate mixed forests. I assess long-term climatological means, trends, and interannual variability for the study period using available weather station data, focusing on numerous basic and derived climate indicators: seasonal and annual temperature and precipitation, the traditionally defined frost-free growing season, and a newly defined metric of the climatological growing season: the warm-season plateau in accumulated chilling days. Results indicate +0.56°C regional warming during the 30-year study period, with cooler springs (–1.26°C) and significant autumn warming (+1.54°C). The duration of the climatological growing season has increased +0.27 days/y, extending primarily into autumn. Summer precipitation in my study area declined by an average –0.34 cm/y, potentially leading to moisture stress that can impair vegetation carbon uptake rates and can render the forest more vulnerable to disturbance. Many changes in temperature, precipitation, and climatological growing season are most prominent in locations where Lake Superior exerts a strong hydroclimatological influence, especially the Minnesota shoreline and in forest areas downwind (southeast) of the lake. I then develop and demonstrate a novel phenoclimatological modeling method, applied over five Landsat footprints across my study area, that combines (1) diagnosis of the mean phenological cycle from remote sensing observations with (2) a partial-least-squares regression (PLSR) approach to modeling vegetation index residuals using these numerous meteorological and climatological observations. While the mean phenology often used to inform land surface models in meteorological and climate modeling systems may explain 50-70% of the observed phenological variability, this mixed modeling approach can explain more than 90% of the variability in phenological observations based on long-term Landsat records for this region.

व्याकरणकार पाणिनि उत्तर वैदिक भाषाका चिन्तक हुन् । उनले लौकिक संस्कृतलाई आधार मानेर व्याकरण ग्रन्थ रचना गरी वैदिक संस्कृतको रूपसिद्धि प्रक्रियालाई पनि समेट्ने प्रयास गरेका छन् । पाणिनीय व्याकरण परम्परामा पाणिनि, कात्यायन र पतञ्जलीलाई मुनित्रयका नामले सम्बोधन गरिन्छ । यसको अर्थ हुन्छ – पाणिनीय व्याकरणको परिपूर्णतामा यी तिन मुनिको संयुक्त योगदान रहेको छ । पाणिनीय व्याकरणको प्रादुर्भावपछि अधिकांश व्याकरण सम्प्रदाय या त लुप्त भएका छन् या पाणिनीय व्याकरणको प्रभावमा सीमित रहेका छन् । पाणिनि संस्कृत व्याकरण परम्पराका शिखर व्यक्तित्व हुन् । पाणिनिले सूत्र शैलीमा अष्टाध्यायीको रचना गरेका छन् । यसमा आठ अध्याय छन् र प्रत्येक अध्यायमा चार पाउ गरी जम्मा ३२ खण्ड खन् । अष्टाध्यायीमा माहेश्वर सूत्र (शिव सूत्र) समेत गरी ३९९७ सूत्र छन् । पाणिनिको व्याकरणमा संस्कृतका वैदिक र लौकिक दुवै भेदको वर्णन पाइन्छ । पाणिनिले धेरै सूत्रमा भाषयाम् भनेको र बोलचालमा मात्र उपयोगी प्रत्यभिवादे शुद्रे इत्यादि सूत्र रचना गरेकाले उनका समयमा संस्कृत लोकमा बोलचालको भाषा थियो भन्ने ज्ञात हुन्छ ।

EU Common Security and Defence Policy and China: a case study of coopetition
Authors: Litwin Boris
Published: October 2020

With the 2019 EU–China Strategic Outlook, the EU has revalidated its dual perspective on China as cooperation partner and strategic competitor at the same time. So far, considerations of China in EU and EU Member States have primarily focused on economic questions. However, as China‘s foreign policy becomes more assertive and visible via military deployments in the EU‘s geopolitical neighbourhood, the EU needs to confront this challenge by giving appropriate and concrete political responses in a geostrategic context as well. Based on the concept of „coopetition“, this article provides an analysis and subsequent recommendations on how the EU can integrate the “China factor” in its Common Security and Defence Policy, while ensuring that a balance of cooperation and competition in EU’s China policy is retained

COVID-19 pandemic is not slowing down, while the government from various countries is currently designing the ‘new normal’ to restart back their economy. Up to now, there is a significant mortality rate in the health care professionals that act as the frontliners in the hospitals and clinics in battling the COVID-19 menace. Based on computational sciences studied since the 1960s, artificial intelligence (AI) could assist healthcare professionals to protect themselves from the SARS-CoV-2 virus and treat the patients in an efficient and secure manner. AI, starting from the diagnosis, treatment, medication, until the prediction of the next pandemic, could assist in various areas. The objective of this review is to highlight AI in the health sciences in order to assist healthcare professionals in facing the COVID-19 pandemic, and the threat of the future pandemics.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 05 No. 02 April’21 Page: 177-184
Assessment of serum Ischemia Modified Albumin (IMA) Levels in Acute Rheumatic Fever
Authors: Dawn Indranil , Biswas Gouranga
Published: October 2020

Introduction : Rheumatic fever (RF) is an autoimmune, multiorgan inflammatory disease. The patients develop carditis (50-78%), arthritis (35-88%), chorea (2-19%), erythema marginatum (< 6%) and subcutaneous nodules (< 1-13%). Ischemia modified albumin or cobalt binding albumin is one of new biomarker for inflammation and oxidative stress. Various previous studies indicate that acute rheumatic fever is associated with oxidative stress and inflammation. In the present study, we examined IMA, CRP, ESR and albumin levels in acute rheumatic fever.Material and method: This case control study was conductedbetween April 2017 to March 2018 in pediatrics department of Malda Medical College and Hospital. Study group composed of 42 children aged 5-18 years suffering from acute rheumatic fever diagnosed by modified jones criteria and they compared with 50 healthy age and sex match control. The IMA levels were compared among groups, and the association to acute phase reactants were investigated.Results: Values ofserumischemia modified albumin, ESR and C Reactive Protein were significantly higher in cases compared to control group (p value ≤0.001). But no significant differencewas found between values of serum albumin in cases compared to control group. Positive correlation was found between cases serum IMA and ESR, C-Reactive protein.Conclusion: Serumischemia modified albumin were significantly higher in children with acute rheumatic fever compared to control group, so IMA could be used as a biomarker in diagnosis of ARF. However, further multicenter and larger case studies are needed to provide stronger evidence.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 05 No. 02 April’21 Page: 222-225

В работе представлено патофизиологическое обоснование формирования MODS и ранних гнойно-воспалительных осложнений в раннем посттравматическом периоде на модели тяжелой тупой травмы груди и живота у крыс. Показано, что на фоне снижения кишечной экстракции кислорода, развившегося в ответ на травму, нарушается проницаемость кишечного барьера, что сопровождается массивным поступлением эндотоксинов кишечных бактерий в кровь, что проявляется значительным снижением концентрации Анти–ЛПС–IgG в плазме крови крыс. Данный процесс является индуктором каскадных иммунопатологических реакций организма и запускающих в ряд патологических кругов с последующим развитием MODS и способствует развитию ранних гнойно-воспалительных осложнений.

Tujuan penulisan jurnal ini adalah untuk membuat aplikasi pemesanan alat kontrasepsi keluarga berencana untuk membantu pegawai Badan Keluarga Berencana dan Pemberdayaan Perempuan (BKB-PP) kota Palembang khususnya Sub Bagian Umum dan Gudang dalam melakukan pencatatan data pemesanan dan pengiriman alat kontrasepsi. Setelah penulis melakukan observasi dan wawancara maka diketahui bahwa masalah yang ada pada Sub Bagian Umum dan Gudang BKB-PP kota Palembang adalah belum adanya aplikasi khusus yang dapat membantu dalam mengelolah data pemesanan dan pengirim alat kontrasepsi, sehingga dalam pencatatan data pemesanan masih dilakukan secara konvensional dengan menggunakan kertas, dengan demikian maka penulis memutuskan untuk membuat aplikasi yang lebih aplikatif dan mudah digunakan untuk membantu dalam efesiensi kerja pegawai BKB-PP kota Palembang. Aplikasi pemesanan alat kontrasepsi keluarga berencana yang dibuat menggunakan program Visual Basic.Net 2008 dengan database MySQL yang mengkasilkan 16 form dan lima report.
