With the continuous advancement of socio-economic levels and relentless innovation in modern medical technologies, there's been a significant increase in the importance people place on their physiological health, particularly in the context of colorectal cancer—a prevalent malignant tumor that has captivated widespread attention within the medical community for its prevention and treatment. Notably, colorectal polyps, identified as precursors to colorectal cancer, are crucial for early diagnosis and precise detection, serving as fundamental elements in averting the disease and diminishing both its incidence and mortality rates. The swift progression of deep neural network technology in recent years has revolutionized computer-assisted medical diagnosis, especially for the detection of colorectal polyps. Deep learning technology, with its robust capability for feature learning and representation, has emerged as an invaluable aid for physicians, markedly enhancing diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. This study centers on colorectal polyps, striving to develop a detection model with superior accuracy by meticulously analyzing contemporary leading target detection algorithms. By fully exploiting the potent capabilities of deep neural networks, the model aims to boost the precision of colorectal polyp detection significantly, aiding physicians in elevating detection efficiency and simplifying diagnostic processes. By undertaking this research, we aim to make a significant contribution toward more accurate and efficient technological support for the early diagnosis and prevention of colorectal polyps, thereby aiding in the reduction of both the incidence and mortality rates associated with colorectal cancer.

Surgery still often causes various problems, one of which is pain, but the problem of pain during and after surgery can be overcome by anesthesia technique. One of them is spinal anesthesia technique. However, spinal anesthesia still has drawbacks where the duration of sensory and motor blockade is still very short. Various methods are used to prolong the duration of sensory and motor blockade of spinal anesthesia, one of which is the addition of adjuvants such as fentanyl and clonidine. This study was conducted to compare the speed of onset of action of sensory-motor blockade and the lengthening of duration of action of sensory-motor blockade between the addition of 25 g fentanyl compared to 50 g conidine in 10 mg hyperbaric 0.5% bipivacaine administered under spinal anesthesia. This study used a Randomized Control Trial (RCT) design with a double-blind randomized control trial and was conducted at Mitra Plumbon Hospital Cirebon from March-April 2021. There were 42 patients who met the inclusion criteria who underwent surgery with spinal anesthesia. Patients were divided into 2 groups, group 1 used 10mg hyperbaric 0.5% bupivacaine plus 25µg fentanyl, while group 2 used 10mg hyperbaric 0.5% bupivacaine plus 50µg clonidine. We investigated the onset of action and duration of action of sensory-motor blockade, the effect of hemodynamic shock, the effect of sedation levels and intraoperative adverse effects (side effects). Data analysis using SPSS 20.0. In the group of 10 mg bupivacaine 0.5% hyperbaric plus clonidine 50 g, the onset of action of sensory-motor blockade was faster and the duration of action was longer than in the group of 10 mg bupivacaine 0.5% hyperbaric plus 25 g fentanyl with a P value <0.05. Likewise, the effect of hemodynamic fluctuations in the 10mg hyperbaric 0.5% bupivacaine group plus 50 g clnidine was more stable than the 10mg hyperbaric 0.5% bupivacaine group plus 25 g fentanyl. While the effect of the level of sedation and intraoperative side effects are comparable

Instant noodles, categorized as part of ready-to-eat cuisine, represent a form of food that is conveniently packaged, easily served, practical, and prepared in a straightforward manner. Despite their convenience, instant noodles fall short of being considered a comprehensive food option due to their inability to fulfill the body's well-rounded nutritional requirements. A typical serving of instant noodles primarily consists of elevated levels of carbohydrates and protein, yet lacks sufficient energy, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. The consumption of instant noodles is driven by the time constraints faced by a majority of consumers, preventing them from indulging in a complete meal and preparing it from scratch. Regularly consuming instant noodles may pose health risks and hazards, given their inclusion of preservatives and low nutritional content. This study employs quantitative research methods, adhering to scientific principles by being concrete, empirical, objective, measurable, rational, and systematic. Quantitative approaches prioritize the analysis of numerical data, subsequently processed through suitable statistical methods. In conclusion, the statistical analysis conducted reveals that both preference (X1) and suitability (X2) jointly exert a significant impact on packaging quality (Y) within the scope of this research. However, it is crucial to note that 51.1% of the variation in Y remains unexplained by these two independent variables, suggesting that other factors may also contribute to determining the quality of packaging.

A fall is an event that causes a person to suddenly lie down accidentally on the ground or floor or lower level. This condition is often experienced by 1 in 3 elderly people every year. Falls can be caused by behavioral, biological, environmental and socio-economic risk factors. Nurses can make efforts to reduce the risk of falls in the elderly through education for the elderly and their families. This study aims to determine the extent of the influence of fall prevention education for the elderly using booklets on the knowledge of the elderly in the family context. This study used a quasi-experiment, two group pretest posttest, education was carried out using a fall prevention booklet for the elderly in the intervention group and without a booklet in the control group. Through the purposive sampling method using inclusion criteria, 60 respondents were obtained, consisting of 30 respondents in the intervention group and 30 respondents in the control group, with 6 interactions carried out. The results of research using the independent sample t test showed that there was a difference in the average posttest value of fall prevention knowledge between the group that received education using booklets and the group that received education without using booklets with a p-value of 0.000. The conclusion of the research is that educational interventions in nursing practice using booklet media in preventing falls in the elderly can increase client and family understanding compared to without using booklet media. The suggestion is to create an attractive media booklet containing concise information and attractive images to obtain optimal client understanding.

Background: In children, hepatitis A virus infection is usually symptom-free and provides long-term immunity. However, in changing socio-economic environments, certain adults encounter infection risks, exposing them to symptomatic illness and complications. This study aims to outline the profile of adult hepatitis A patients. Methods: We conducted a retrospective study from 2017 to 2023, involving all patients aged over 14 years who presented with acute hepatitis and tested positive for anti-HAV antibodies. Demographic, laboratory and clinical data were analyzed. Results: The analysis involved 109 cases (mean age 21 +/- 6 years, 57.8% males). All patients were symptomatic. Among them, 71.6% presented with a pseudo-flu-like syndrome, 89% with jaundice, 50.5% with fever and 30.2% with gastrointestinal symptoms. Thirty patients were hospitalized (26.6%), among them one subfulminant was recorded. Clinically, hepatomegaly was found in 8 patients (7.3%). One patient had presented with a skin rash. Serum alanine aminotransferases levels were more than 50 times the normal range in 47.7% of cases, with an average bilirubin level of 89 mg/l. Severe acute hepatitis was observed in 26.6% of patients. Conclusion: Our findings revealed that over 25% of adult patients experienced severe acute hepatitis, with one patient progressing to acute liver failure. These results underline the importance of raising awareness of hygiene practices and prompt a study of the overall seroprevalence of hepatitis in the adult population in order to improve viral hepatitis prevention and control strategies in the country.

Karak is a type of snack food that can also be used as a side dish when eating rice. Karak is found in almost all areas of Java, made from rice that is seasoned so that it has a good taste. The process of making gendar karak dough is very simple, namely by pounding it using a wooden stick whose ends are wrapped in plastic, so it requires exhausting energy and requires more than one person so that the results of the dough mix can be evenly distributed. Pounding with this tool is not efficient, that is, it takes a long time and the results are not good or uneven, and the expected results are not optimal. Problems like this must be solved so that the quality and quantity of the grinding process of gendar karak material can be improved. The design of the gendar karak dough pounding machine with an electric and time controlled drive system is intended to increase the efficiency of the gendar dough pounding process to be used as karak with better quality. The gendar karak mixer and mixer machine has been successfully made and used by UKM partners to be used as a production tool for making gendar karak where the mixing process was previously done manually using a wooden pounder. After using the mixer machine and the Karak gendar dough mixer mechanically, the manual work pounding process can be reduced and the mixing process is getting better, with the result that the taste and quality are not reduced

The most common phonation changes in patients with cleft lip and palate are: hypernasality, compensatory articulation, weak intraoral pressure and nasal air leak. The literature refers to the use of auditory-perceptual assessment in phonation analysis as the most used method by speech therapists, being considered gold standard. However, it depends on the experience of the hearing evaluators who must be highly trained. Therefore, complementary tests are supposed to extend the range of diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities. So, there is a need for a simple, objective and non-invasive test to be used in the routine care of this individual. The objective of this study is to characterize, using auditory-perceptual analysis, the speech and voice profile of a group of patients who underwent palatoplasty in the state of Rio de Janeiro, comparing these findings to the parameters found in acoustic analysis and in the literature. An interview was carried out based on the orofacial myofunctional assessment protocol for individuals with cleft lip and palate. The entire process was recorded on a video camera and directly in the acoustic analysis program using Voxmetria version 2.7, from CTS Informática, with the aid of a noise-reducing microphone. It was concluded that the auditory-perceptual and acoustic characterization of the speech and voice profile of patients who underwent palatoplasty is consistent with data obtained in the literature in other reference centers around the world. Furthermore, acoustic analysis showed statistical significance when compared to auditory-perceptual analysis, extending the range of diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities.
