Published: December 2023

Smart street lighting is a key application in smart cities, enabling the monitoring and control of street lamps through internet connectivity. LoRa/LoRaWAN, an IoT technology, offers advantages such as low power consumption, cost-effectiveness, and a wide area network. With its extensive coverage of up to 15 kilometers and easy deployment, LoRa has become a favored connectivity option for IoT use cases. This study explores the utilization of LoRaWAN in Pangandaran, a regency in the West Java province of Indonesia. Implementing LoRaWAN in this context has resulted in several benefits, including the ability to monitor and control street lighting in specific areas of Pangandaran and real-time recording of energy consumption. The primary objective of this research is to estimate the number of LoRaWAN gateways required to support smart street lighting in Pangandaran. Two methods are employed: coverage calculation using the free space loss approach and capacity calculation. The coverage calculation suggests a requirement of 34 gateways, whereas the capacity calculation indicates that only two gateways are needed. Based on these findings, it can be inferred that, theoretically, a maximum of 34 gateways would be necessary for smart street lighting in the Pangandaran area. However, further research, including driving tests, is recommended to validate these results for future implementation. This study provides insights into the practical application of LoRaWAN technology in smart street lighting, specifically in Pangandaran. The findings contribute to optimizing infrastructure and resource allocation, ultimately enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of urban lighting systems.

Published: December 2023

Mustard can be developed or grown from a financial and business perspective to meet buyer demands and capture significant market opportunities. Mustard is a highly adaptable horticultural crop with a relatively short harvest time. This mustard offers many advantages for the farmer. For example, many farmers plant mustard in Samarinda, East Kalimantan, Indonesia. Despite being highly adaptable, some species of mustard greens do not thrive well in certain soils. Good soil is essential for optimal results when growing mustard greens. The planted mustard can be selected using decision support based on land criteria to get the best results. The purpose of this study is to recommend suitable mustard based on area requirements using a multi-objective optimization by ratio analysis (MOORA) approach. MOORA is a decision-making method that assists in choosing the best alternative from several options or alternatives based on several criteria or objectives. This observation used five criteria: Soil type, soil pH, precipitation, temperature, site elevation, and six mustard alternatives. Based on the trial land, the mustard recommended by the MOORA method is a Spoon Mustard or Pak Choy with a Yi value of 7.6698. So those chosen as mustard planted on the land are Spoon Mustard or Pak Choy. For further research, it is necessary to add or adjust new criteria and sensors in real-time that can be applied to increase efficiency in mustard towards smart farming that focuses on better results while maintaining the balance of nature.

Authors: Gunawan Albertus Emilio Kurniajaya , Wibowo Antoni
Published: December 2023

Stock investing is known worldwide as a passive income available for everyone. To increase the profit possibly gained, many researchers and investors brainstorm to gain a strategy with the most profit. Machine learning and deep learning are two of these approaches to predicting the stock's movement and deciding the strategy to gain as much as possible. To reach this goal, the researcher experiments with Random Forest (RF) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) by trying them individually and merging them into an ensembled model. The researcher used RF to classify the results from LSTM models obtained throughout the Hyperparameter Optimization (HPO) process. This idea is implemented to lessen the time needed to train and optimize each LSTM model inside the ensembled model. Another anticipation done in this research to overcome the time needed to train the model is classifying the return for longer periods. The dataset used in this model is 45 stocks listed in LQ45 as of August 2021 This research results in showing that LSTM gives better results than RF model especially when using Bayesian Optimization as the HPO method, and that the ensembled model can return better precision in predicting stocks in comparison to the LSTM model itself. Future improvement can focus on the model structure, additional model types as the ensemble model estimator, improvement on the model efficiency, and datasets research to be used in predicting the stock movement prediction

Published: December 2023

Persons with disabilities experience physical, intellectual, mental, or sensory difficulties. One type of disability is paralysis. Paralysis is a condition where there is interference with the nerves that control body movement, causing the limbs to be unable to move. Paralyzed people will find it difficult to move without the help of others. Therefore, research was carried out by creating an intelligent room system to help persons with disabilities manage their own rooms so that they do not always have to be accompanied by a nurse. Paralyzed people can turn lights or fans on and off, and send help messages to their carers via the Telegram bot. This study used the NeuroSky Mindwave EEG headset which detects the user's brain signals with outputs in the form of attention level, relaxation level (meditation), and blink strength level. The resulting signal is processed via a PC and sent via NodeMCU to give commands in the form of turning lights and fans on or off, as well as sending messages to nurses. From this research a system was produced that could turn on the lights based on the value of Attention ≥ 70, turn on the fan based on the Meditation value ≥ 74, then the value of BlinkStrength ≥ 81 which was counted 2 times to turn off the lights, 3 times to turn off the fan, 4 times to turn off the lights and fan, and more than 4 times sending help messages

Authors: Chyan Phie , Achmad Andani , Nurtanio Ingrid , Areni Intan Sari
Published: December 2023

Stress is a psychological condition that requires proper treatment due to its potential long-term effects on health and cognitive faculties. This is particularly pertinent when considering pre- and early-school-age children, where stress can yield a range of adverse effects. Furthermore, detection in children requires a particular approach different from adults because of their physical and cognitive limitations. Traditional approaches, such as psychological assessments or the measurement of biosignal parameters prove ineffective in this context. Speech is also one of the approaches used to detect stress without causing discomfort to the subject and does not require prerequisites for a certain level of cognitive ability. Therefore, this study introduced a hybrid deep learning approach using supervised and unsupervised learning in a stress detection model. The model predicted the stress state of the subject and provided positional data point analysis in the form of a cluster map to obtain information on the degree using CNN and GSOM algorithms. The results showed an average accuracy and F1 score of 94.7% and 95%, using the children's voice dataset. To compare with the state-of-the-art, model were tested with the open-source DAIC Woz dataset and obtained average accuracy and F1 scores of 89% and 88%. The cluster map generated by GSOM further underscored the discerning capability in identifying stress and quantifying the degree experienced by the subjects, based on their speech patterns

Published: December 2023

Agriculture faces challenges in achieving high-yield production while minimizing the use of chemicals. The excessive use of chemicals in agriculture poses many problems. Accurate disease diagnosis is crucial for effective plant disease detection and treatment. Automatic identification of plant diseases using computer vision techniques offers new and efficient approaches compared to traditional methods. Transformers, a type of deep learning model, have shown great promise in computer vision, but as the technology is still new, many vision transformer models struggle to identify diseases by examining the entire leaf. This paper aims to utilize the vision transformer model in analyzing and identifying common diseases that hinder the growth and development of plants through the plant leave images. Besides, it aims to improve the model's stability by focusing more on the entire leaf than individual parts and generalizing better results on leaves not in the image center. Added features such as Shift Patch Tokenization, Locality Self Attention, and Positional Encoding help focus on the whole leaf. The final test accuracy obtained is 89.58%, with relatively slight variances in precision, accuracy, and F1 score across classes, as well as satisfactory model robustness towards changes in leaf orientation and position within the image. The model's effectiveness shows the vision transformer's potential for automated plant disease diagnosis, which can help farmers take timely measures to prevent losses and ensure food security.

A global medical issue, primarily raised in underdeveloped nations, is inappropriate Menstrual Hygiene Management (MHM) among teenage girls. Menstrual hygiene is a global concern because there are over 0.6 billion teenage females (about 8% of the population). The Asian and African continents are home to over 80% of these teenagers. Throughout, 355 million girls and women in India have periods. However, MHM causes discomfort and a lack of respect for millions of women all over the country. In alignment with today's technologies like cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), and Internet of Things (IoT), the MHM can be handled effectively. A quantitative survey was carried out among 184 random volunteers aged 18-22 to reveal the current status of MHM in India. The result of the survey confirmed that 72.8% of girls encountered stress during their period, 45% of them were unaware of hygiene products to be used while in the menstruation cycle, 65.2% of them used sanitary pads, and 57.6% of them received disrespectful treatments. This work aims to empower women with the MHM by facilitating knowledge on the menstrual cycle and guiding them about safe-to-use products and disposal strategies in home, work, or community places with the help of technological advancements. Further, introduce a simple friendhood discussion forum through an intelligent chatbot like "Sirona, " a chatbot built over Whatsapp that facilitates a complete ecosystem for MHM.

Published: December 2023

The human handwriting pattern is one of the research areas of pattern recognition; it is very complex. Therefore, research in this field has become quite popular. Moreover, human handwriting pattern recognition is needed for several things, one of them being character recognition. Recognition of Arabic handwriting is complex because everyone has different characteristics in writing and Arabic characters have quite abstract shapes and patterns. From previous research, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), a deep learning-based algorithm, has a fairly high accuracy value when used for public datasets such as AHDB and private datasets. In this study, private datasets are used with a fairly high level of complexity because the respondents appointed to write Arabic letters come from different age categories. The CNN architecture used in this research is the architecture developed by Yan LeCun known as LeNet-5. The local dataset used was 8400 images, with details of 6720 for training data (each letter has 240 images) and 1680 for testing data (each letter has 60 images). The total respondents who wrote Arabic script were 30 people, and each person wrote each letter ten times. The accuracy obtained is 81% higher than in previous studies. The following study will test a number of additional CNN architectures to increase the accuracy of the results. In addition to accuracy, this study will also calculate the misclassification rate, root mean square error, and mean absolute error.

Effect of non-adherence to ARV therapy on 3-year life of HIV/AIDS patients: a cohort retrospective study
Authors: Sitanggang Hendra Dhermawan , Wahyono Tri Yunis Miko , Ayu Ira Marti
Published: December 2023

Background: Antiretroviral drug Therapy (ART) has dramatically reduced the morbidity and mortality of People Living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). However, adherence to antiretroviral therapy has become a challenge due to a lifetime of therapy. Adherence to antiretroviral therapy is one determining factor in the success of treatment.

Method: This study aimed to determine the influence of medication non-adherence on the 3-year survival of patients with HIV/AIDS. The study design used a retrospective cohort and calculated survival estimates using Cox regression. All HIV/AIDS patients in the RSPI-SS from 2010 â€“ April 2012, totaling 164 patients, were obtained from medical records, a summary of treatment and ART (follow-up), pharmacy data, and ARV therapy monitoring books at the RSPI-SS. Data analysis using cox regression.

Results: The cumulative survival probability of patients with HIV/AIDS at RSPI Prof. dr. Sulianti Saroso in the second year (24th month) was 95.6% and in the third year (in the 36th) was 91%. Multivariate analysis with Cox regression showed the factors that affected the 3-year survival of patients with HIV/AIDS are non-adherence to ART after being controlled by initial CD4 count (aHR = 7.608; 95% CI: 1.664 to 34.790) and non-compliance appointments after controlled by opportunistic infection, age and initial CD4 count (aHR = 2.456; 95% CI: 0.802 to 7.518). Among patients' non-adherence to ART, non-compliance appointments affected the 3-year survival of patients with HIV/AIDS after controlled by initial CD4 count, sex, CPT, modes of HIV transmission,  WHO clinical stage, opportunistic infection, and age (aHR = 4.517; 95%CI: 0.729 to 27.987).

Conclusion: Non-adherence to ART may cause a failure to suppress HIV viral, thus increasing the possibility of HIV mutations that can lead to drug-resistant and ultimately increase the risk of death. Patients who do not adhere to medication and do not adhere to their medication appointments show a higher risk of dying than those who adhere to HIV/AIDS. Non-adherence to taking medication in the first year can be used as a marker to monitor medication adherence and the patient's health condition in the future. Therefore, it is essential to monitor adherence to taking the medication regularly through ARV therapy surveillance activities.

Authors: Hanina Hanina , Humaryanto Humaryanto , Lipinwati Lipinwati
Published: December 2023

Background: Developing herbal medicines for antibacterial activity has been challenging in Indonesia. Of the alternative antimicrobials, areca nut (Areca catechu L) has antimicrobial activity since it contains flavonoids, tannins, phenols, alkaloids, saponins, terpenoids, and glycosides. The use of antibiotics in underdeveloped and developing countries is still irrational, and bacterial infection in Indonesia is still a problem to resolve, so searching for new herbal medicines is very important. Staphylococcus aureus is the most common normal flora that causes infection. The two types of Staphylococcus aureus are Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA). The study aimed to determine the efficacy of the antibacterial activity of areca nut ethanol extract against MRSA and MSSA isolates.

Methods: The research was conducted at the Biomedical Laboratory, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Jambi. Young and old areca nut ethanol extracts were macerated using 96% ethanol. The antibacterial activity test of the ethanol extract was carried out using the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method against the isolates of MRSA (clinical isolates) and MSSA (SA 25923/K+, SA 29213/K-).

Results: The results showed that the phytochemicals of young areca nut extracts contained alkaloids, flavonoids, phenols, and steroids, and old areca nut extracts contained alkaloids, flavonoids, and phenols. The MRSA isolates did not show the activity of the two areca nut ethanol extracts and were also resistant to Ceftadizime, Gentamicin, Ceftriaxone, and Cefoxitin. The MSSA isolates showed strong activity against old areca nut ethanol extract, moderate activity against young areca nut ethanol extract, and resistance to gentamicin.

Conclusion: MRSA bacteria are resistant to the ethanol extract of young and old areca nuts, while the ethanol extract of old areca nuts has strong antibacterial activity against MSSA.

Authors: Rahmiwati Anita , Aggraeni Deliza
Published: December 2023

Background: Stunting is a nutritional problem due to nutrient deficiency during the first 1000 days of life. Efforts to prevent the occurrence of stunting are essential, considering the impact that will be caused. One way is to provide health education to couples of childbearing age so that they can prepare for their pregnancies well. This study aimed to determine the effect of counseling using explosion boxes to increase the knowledge and attitudes of fertile-age couples. This research uses an analytical, operational study with a quasi-experimental research design with a non-equivalent control group design. This research was conducted by providing health education as a form of intervention that was preceded by measurement of knowledge before and after the intervention.

Method: The study used a quasi-experimental method with a non-equivalent control group design. This research sample is a fertile age couple in the working area of the Office of the Religious Affairs of Sirah Pulau Padang,Ogan Komering Ilir Distric (OKI)  which amounted to 64 respondents. The sampling method uses purposive sampling.The experiment group with the Explosion Box for media education and the control group with the lecture method which was previously given a pretest first and after 14 days. Furthermore, it was analyzed with a dependent sample t-test and an independent sample t-test.

Results: The study showed that there was a significant influence in increasing knowledge both in the experimental group (p = 0,000) and the control group (p = 0,000) and the good attitude in the experimental group (p = 0.003) and the control group (p = 0,000). Furthermore, there was no significant difference between respondents' knowledge in the experimental & control group (p = 0.413) with a difference of 0.78 and the attitude of the experimental & control group (p = 0.607) with a difference of 0.98.

Conclusion: Counseling with an explosion box is more effective in increasing the knowledge and attitudes of fertile-age couples, even though there is no statistical difference between an explosion box and a lecture.

Background :Smoking is one of the habits that is inherent in humans because it is addictive. Active smokers in Indonesia have increased significantly in 10 years. Smoking has a negative impact on health, one of which is changes in salivary flow rate. Changes in salivary flow rate in smokers can cause complications in the airway when performing surgery using inhalation general anaesthesia. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between smoking status and salivary flow rate in patients with inhalation general anaesthesia.

Method : This type of research is observational analytic with a cross sectional approach. The sample in the study was 35 respondents with 4 inclusion criteria. The sample in this study was taken with purporsive sampling technique. Data collection stimulated saliva by suction method. Data analysis using univariate and bivariate analysis, namely the Chi-Square test.

Results : The results showed that inhalation general anaesthesia patients were more smokers with 24 respondents (68.6%) and respondents who experienced changes in salivary flow rate obtained the most respondents who experienced hypersaliva as many as 15 respondents (42.9%). The results of bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square test showed that 11 respondents (31.4%) who smoked experienced hypersaliva with a p-value of 0.000 <0.05.

Conclusion : There is a relationship between smoking status and salivary flow rate in inhalation anaesthesia patients, namely the increase in salivary flow rate in smoking respondents with inhalation general anaesthesia.
Platelet-Rich Plasma as Xenofree-Growth Factor For Mesenchymal Stem Cells Culture
Authors: Nurhidayati Asti , Sukmawati Dewi
Published: December 2023

Stem cell-based therapy is currently believed to be the future of medicine. The type of stem cell that is widely used in cell-based therapy is mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). In stem cell-based therapy, the MSCs that will be used mostly need to be expanded first by culturing the cells. The serum that is often used in MSCs culturing is a fetal bovine serum (FBS). However, animal components should be avoided in clinical applications and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). FBS is not adhering to GMP, which compromises the safety and effectiveness of cell-based therapies. Therefore, other supplements are required for cultures without animal serum constituents. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a plasma fraction derived from blood with a platelet concentration of 3-5 times higher than in blood. Several studies have shown that PRP contains various growth factors that can increase the proliferative and differentiation capacity of MSCs which is equivalent to or even better than FBS. PRP also has the advantage that it can be an autologous or allogeneic product from human peripheral blood, so it is free from animal substances. Therefore in the future PRP has great potential as an alternative to FBS both in culture expansion and in MSCs processing.
