Published: August 2023

Pending claims are an issue that can impact hospitals, that is, more about delays in the service of doctors and employees. Several factors can cause pending claims, but the main cause of pending cases lies in the completeness of the file on the filling out of the medical resume sheet and the laboratory results that are not recorded. This research is descriptive qualitative with a population of 10 verification employees and a sample of 116 files. It uses interviews with verification officers and observations on pending files—and the identification of 5M management elements (Man, Money, Method, Machine, Materials) to determine what factors cause pending to come from. The results of the study obtained results In 2021; there were pending claims on the diagnosis of pneumoni covid-19 cases in as many as 1167 files, files that had expired were as many as 94 files and files that passed verification were as many as 145 of the total submissions of hospitalization and files for the diagnosis of pneumoni covid-19 cases were as many as 1420 files. If calculated, the percentage for pending cases is 82.18%, passed verification is 11.21% and files that expired as much as 6.61%.
A Solar PV Model Parameter Estimation Based on the Enhanced Self-Organization Maps
Authors: El Marghichi Mouncef
Published: August 2023

Solar photovoltaic (PV) is a commonly utilized renewable energy source, with PV cells often being modeled as electric circuits. The identification of suitable circuit model parameters for PV cells is vital for performance evaluation, efficiency calculations, and the implementation of maximum power point tracking in solar PV systems. However, modeling the solar PV system is a nonlinear problem that requires an efficient algorithm. In this paper, we employ the enhanced self-organization maps (EASOM) to efficiently reduce the search space for parameter estimation in solar PV models. Our algorithm trains the SOM network on a subset of solutions, identifies the top solution's neural unit, generates a population of potential solutions, and selects the best candidate using a cost function, which represents the best PV model parameters obtained. The performance of EASOM is verified by extracting the parameters of the single diode (SDM) and double diode (DDM) models for the STM6-40/36 PV module. EASOM outperformed state-of-the-art algorithms with the lowest RMSE and MSE values of 8.3 mA and 6.87e-05 and achieved the lowest maximum error values of 27.37 mA and 20.52 mA, as well as low power error of 66.04 mW and 62.8 mW for SDM and DDM models.
Afrofuturism and the Law
Authors: Capers Bennett
Published: August 2023

Long before the film Black Panther captured the public’s imagination, the cultural critic Mark Dery coined the term “Afrofuturism” to describe “speculative fiction that treats African-American themes and addresses African-American concerns in the context of twentieth-century technoculture.” Since then, the term has been applied to speculative creatives as diverse as the pop artist Janelle Monae, the science fiction writer Octavia Butler, and the visual artist Nick Cave. But only recently have thinkers turned to how Afrofuturism might guide, and shape, law. This special issue, “Afrofuturism and the Law,” features articles that explore the many ways Afrofuturism can inform a range of legal issues, and even chart the way to a better future for us all.

Published: August 2023

Background: Healthy life expectancy (HALE) at birth measures the standard of living anticipated.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to identify the main global risk factors for HALE at birth.
Methodology: The data of 212 countries have been extracted from the data hub of World Health Organization, Worldometer, World Bank, and United Nations. The HALE at birth was considered as the dependent variable and the death rate due to Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID 19), recovery rate from COVID 19, tuberculosis (TB) incidence, universal health coverage (UHC) service index, tobacco smoking, alcohol consumption rate, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevalence rate, average household size, gross domestic product (GDP), and current health expenditure were considered as the independent variables. Descriptive statistics, Pearson’s correlation analysis, and multiple linear regression model were used as the statistical tools to analyze the data.
Results: The study results revealed that the HALE is found lowest in Central African Republic (44.9 years) and highest in Singapore (76.2 years). On the other hand, the death rate due to COVID 19 is found highest in Nicaragua (32.0%). In case of the recovery rate from COVID 19, the lowest value is seen in Tajikistan (0.0). Again, the lowest UHC service index is found in Montserrat (0.0). Alcohol consumption rate is found highest in Moldova Republic (15.20). In case of HIV prevalence rate, the highest value is seen in Eswatini (27.30). Average household size is seen highest in Senegal (8.30). The recovery rate from COVID 19, UHC service index, GDP, current health expenditure TB incidence, tobacco smoking, HIV prevalence rate and average household size were significantly correlated with the HALE at birth. Again, the multiple linear regression model identified the UHC service index, alcohol consumption rate, HIV prevalence rate and average household size as the significant factors which are responsible for the variation in HALE at birth worldwide.
Conclusion: The UHC service index, alcohol consumption rate, HIV prevalence rate and average household size are the most associate factors of HALE at birth globally.

COMMEMORATION OF THE ANNIVERSARIES OF THE JANUARY UPRISING OF 1863 BY THE POLISH COMMUNITY OF L’VIV AT THE TURN OF THE 19th AND 20th CENTURIES (through the prism of L’viv polish journals)
Authors: KOLB Nataliia
Published: August 2023

It is noted that at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, the leading Polish circles of L’viv paid considerable attention to the formation and preservation of a high level of national consciousness and patriotism in Polish society. It is indicated that one of the tools for this was patriotic celebrations, among which the celebrations in honor of the January Uprising of 1863 occupied an important place. It is emphasized that the L’viv Polish community annually celebrated two dates related to this uprising: in August in honor of the members of the National Government executed by the Russian authorities, and in January, commemorating the day the uprising began. The January celebrations were of larger scale. They included memorial services, concert programs, and a patriotic gathering. It is noted that at first the organization of the celebrations was taken care of by Polish youth, and since 1898 by a specially created public committee.

It was emphasized that public opinion very carefully controlled the level of patriotic celebrations and the involvement of numerous L’viv public in them. It was found that at the end of the 19th century a certain indifference of L’viv residents to the annual January celebrations was evident. This prompted the Public Committee to expand the circle of organizers of these celebrations and the area of their holding. It is indicated that the 35th, and especially the 40th and 50th anniversaries of the January Uprising were celebrated with great solemnity: services were held in all L’viv churches, grand processions through the streets of the city, concerts and patriotic gatherings.

It is noted that at the beginning of the 20th century socialists joined the commemoration of the January Uprising, chanting left-wing slogans. Also, at times, the aggravation of Ukrainian-Polish relations and the general radicalization of attitudes in Galician society lest its mark on the course of the celebrations.

Keywords: L’viv, January Uprising, Polish public, patriotic celebrations, memorial services, patriotism.

Published: August 2023

Introduction: Wideband tympanometry and evoked otoacoustic emissions can help audiologically monitor children birth to 3 years old, with or without risk factors for hearing loss. Objective: To study wideband tympanometry results in acoustic absorbance measures and transient evoked and distortion-product otoacoustic emission records during audiological monitoring. Method: This prospective observational study encompassed 58 children with and without risk indicators for hearing loss, with a mean age of 16.7 months. Data were obtained from the databases of four public maternity hospitals in São Paulo. Subjects were characterized as normal hearing or conductive hearing loss in the groups with and without risk factors for hearing loss. Results: Wideband absorbance at 1000 to 8000 Hz was verified to correlate the absorbance level with the transient evoked and distortion-product otoacoustic emission response levels at 1000 to 8000 Hz and wideband tympanometry. Normal hearing individuals’ absorbance at 1500 Hz to 6000 Hz ranged from 0.92 to 0.98, in which the best results may be found. Conclusion: Absorbance values are higher in male and normal hearing children. Evoked otoacoustic emission levels agreed with absorbance measures – the greater the absorbance, the higher the transient evoked and distortion-product otoacoustic emission levels.

The experimental design was completely randomized with four replications and seven treatments: 1) Control (C), whole-plant sorghum with no additives; 2) Microbial (M), whole-plant sorghum + microbial additive (0.2% of original matter); 3) Sugar (S), whole-plant sorghum + brown sugar (4.0% of original matter); 4) Microbial plus sugar additives (MS), whole-plant sorghum + microbial additive (0.2% of original matter) + brown sugar (4.0% of original matter); 5) Whey (W), whole-plant sorghum + whey (3% of original matter); 6) Microbial plus whey additives (MW), whole-plant sorghum + microbial additive (0.2% of original matter) + whey (3% of original matter); 7) Microbial plus sugar plus whey (MSW), whole-plant sorghum + microbial additive (0.2% of original matter) + brown sugar (4.0% of original matter) + whey (3% of original matter). The sorghum was cut 111 days after emergence, in the milky-floury stage, and ensiled in polyvinyl chloride silos, adapted with a Bunsen valve. After 35 days of storage, the silos were opened, and samples were collected for the respective analyzes. The additives only presented differences for dry matter, mineral matter, organic matter, crude protein, ether extract, neutral detergent fiber, acid detergent fiber, total carbohydrates, and A + B1 fraction of the carbohydrates. In the present study, microbial inoculants, brown sugar, whey, and their interactions were effective in improving the chemical profile as well as the soluble carbohydrate fraction of whole-plant sorghum silage.

The objective of this research was to characterize the vibrational spectrum of the Zn(II) and Cd(II) thioglycolate complexes, as well as their structures, vibrational analysis and the natural orbitals of bonds, through the infrared spectrum with Fourier transform (FT -IR) and Raman. The thioglycolate complexes of Zn(II) and Cd(II) were synthesized following  procedures given by  the graphical method, and structural analysis was performed  through  a theoretical-experimental method  using both, the hybrid RHF/MP2:STO-3G and the experimental FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra. Calculations were performed on the optimized structure and harmonic vibrational wavenumbers for both complexes were obtained. Second derivative of the vibrational spectra and deconvolution analysis were also performed. The infrared and Raman spectra show many combination and overtone bands in both cases. Calculated and experimental spectra confirmed the structural hypothesis considering two ATG (thioglycolic acid) with two water molecules in the coordination sphere of the central atoms. The natural bond orbital analysis (NBO) was also carried out to study the Zn(II) and Cd(II) hybridization leading to a pseudo-octahedral geometry for both complexes.

Abstract—The role of the hospital is very helpful in efforts to improve the quality of public health, for this reason the need for fast and appropriate services so that human resources are maintained for their survival. At dr. Hospital Hendrikus Fernandez Larantuka East Nusa Tenggara, the registration service still uses the intranet system or local network and system errors often occur so that the patient registration process is hampered. In addition, the system created on the intranet network also has drawbacks, one of which is that it can only be accessed by people who are connected to the building's network. With these problems, there is a need for a mobile-based application that can be accessed directly by the public in real time from anywhere and any time. The purpose of this study is to create a mobile-based application design that is capable of processing inpatient registration services at hospitals with an attractive and user-friendly appearance. The method used in this study is the prototyping method. This method is a software development model by creating a prototype or model to provide an overview to the user by going through 5 stages, namely communications, quick plan, quick design model, prototype construct, and development delivery and feedback. The tool used in making this prototype is the Figma application. The results of this study are that there is an application prototype that can be used as reference material for RSUD dr. Hendrikus Fernandez Larantuka, East Nusa Tenggara, in developing his system so that the inpatient registration process can be carried out by the community anytime and anywhere. Likewise, information from the hospital can be received in real time by the public through the mobile-based hospital inpatient application.

Abstract— Nowadays, awareness of the importance of cultural heritage is decreasing among the public, especially among youth who will become leaders and inherit the culture of their region. Law Number 11 of 2010 stipulates the importance of protecting and preserving cultural heritage because it has significant value in history, science, education, religion and culture. Therefore, the existence of cultural heritage must be considered and maintained properly according to applicable regulations. There are several criteria for assessing buildings that will be used as cultural heritage according to Law number 11 of 2010 in Chapter III, article 5, cultural heritage criteria, namely the age of the building, historical value, cultural value and architectural value. This study aims to create a system that can determine the feasibility of a building as a cultural heritage in a precise and accurate way (case study DISPORAPARBUD Purwakarta). In this study, the Simple Multi Attribute Rating Technique (SMART) method was used in the Decision Support System (SPK). The results of this study are to produce recommendations for buildings that are worthy of being cultural heritage in accordance with predetermined criteria, namely the Normal School building with a value of 1 by occupying the first rank, which will then be recommended to the Purwakarta DISPORAPARBUD

Abstract—The decreasing sheep population has raised serious concerns regarding its impact on both the livestock industry and export opportunities. One of the main factors contributing to this decline is the prevalence of diseases among sheep. These illnesses present a significant problem as they can lead to reduced meat production, animal fatalities, and economic losses. The limited knowledge among farmers regarding these diseases and sheep care makes it challenging to diagnose and treat the conditions effectively. To address this issue and aid farmers in easily diagnosing diseases, a web-based expert system utilizing the fuzzy Mamdani method was developed. The selection of the fuzzy Mamdani method was based on its ability to handle uncertainty in disease diagnosis, providing reasonably accurate results by evaluating symptoms, determining disease severity, and recommending appropriate treatments. Through the fuzzy Mamdani method and the web-based platform, this system offers convenient access for farmers to diagnose diseases in their sheep online. According to the analysis results, reproductive health disorders are the primary cause of the decline in the sheep population. Consequently, the expert system for diagnosing sheep diseases serves as an alternative for early prevention and suitable treatment. System testing indicates an accuracy rate of 80%, signifying the system's capability to provide reasonably accurate diagnoses. The main goal of this research is to support the livestock and fisheries department in Purwakarta in diagnosing sheep diseases, preventing epidemic outbreaks, and implementing proper measures to mitigate the negative impacts on the livestock industry while promoting sustainable growth of the sheep population

Presently, the complaining service in Kartasura local government relies on manual recording where people must come to the government office, write their complaints and submit them to the office staff. This situation causes inefficiency since people have to travel from their places to the local government office. Moreover, the manual recording makes the complaints cannot be managed properly since the same complaints can be submitted more than one time. Additionally, it also causes some confusion to the government staff since they need to carefully check whether it has been submitted previously and approve the complaints accordingly. To solve the issue, a web-based application complaint system is developed to reduce the number of the same complaints from the citizen as well as to help staff manage the complaints data. The Jaro-Winkler String Similarity algorithm is adopted to check the similarity of newly submitted complaints with existing complaints data. The algorithm detects similarities of newly submitted complaints by determining the level of string equality to the existing complaints. Experimental results using one month period of complaints data in December 2022 show that the application is able to detect the similarity between the newly submitted complaints to the existing complaints. As the value of similarity threshold is higher, the number of rejected complaints also increases.  Meanwhile, the test results of the system using the System Usability Scale Score obtained an average value of 76.5, which means the system is included in the Acceptable category and can be used for daily activity.

Indonesia is a tropical region with ever-changing weather changes. It is necessary to conduct a research on weather prediction as a decision making regarding weather information that will occur in the future. Rainfall is one of the factors that cause changes in weather in an area. This research was conducted on the climate in the Yogyakarta region in the form of mountains and lowlands causing differences in rainfall. The variables that are used to make predictions are several parameters that affect rainfall, namely temperature, humidity, wind speed and duration of solar radiation. These 5 variables are processed through the data obtained then carried out research and comparisons with the previous data. Multiple linear regression is the algorithm used. This algorithm is one of the machine learning techniques by making rainfall data as the dependent variable and other parameters as independent variables. This study uses Yogyakarta City, Central Java climate data for 2010-2020. The results obtained are an R2 score of 12.99%. Prediction of rainfall is obtained at 14.41778516. Then the RMSE evaluation resulted in a deviation between predicted rainfall and actual rainfall of 14.78316110508722. Based on these results, it shows that there is light rain because it is in the intensity category of 5 mm – 20 mm/day.

It is believed that atherogenesis is a multifactorial process, which could already start in utero. Development of atherosclerosis progresses over decades and leads to the cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in adulthood. At present, we have no exact explanation for all the risk factors acting in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. This review should provide an overview about the possible role of intrauterine undernutrition in the development of risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Intrauterine undernutrition leads to changes in fetal growth and metabolism and programs later development of some of these risk factors. A number of experimental and human studies indicates that hypertension as well as impaired cholesterol and glucose metabolism are affected by intrauterine growth. Intrauterine undernutrition plays an important role and acts synergistically with numerous genetic and environmental factors in the development of atherosclerosis. There is evidence that undernutrition of the fetus has permanent effects on the health status of human individuals.
