Reproductive health is a topic that needs to be known in adolescents because there is a critical period that is both normative and maladaptive in adolescent development. Junior high school (SMP) students are categorized as early adolescents (12–15 years old). Their characteristics include unstable behaviour, tending to be emotional and unrealistic, and being a critical period for various information so that they can experience problems such as promiscuity, teenage pregnancy, abortion, sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), and others. Grade 7 students at SMP Ma'arif Borobudur have not yet received information about reproductive health. The method used was providing reproductive health education using multimedia and group discussions. The sub-topics of this health counselling consisted of material on introducing reproductive organs, sexually transmitted diseases, unwanted pregnancy, premarital sex, and healthy reproductive tips. The activity was carried out in four stages: problem assessment, socialization of plans, education, and evaluation. The activity improved knowledge among adolescents about reproductive health, seen in pretest results with a mean of 81.08 and posttest scores of 86.70 in the range of 0-100. It shows that reproductive health education can improve adolescents' knowledge, so this activity needs to be carried out periodically.

Food is one of the basic human needs, and food is usually given food additives. However, public knowledge about food additives still needs to be improved in terms of type, appropriate dosage for use and impact on human health. Apart from being good, food must also be halal, but public understanding of halal food ingredients and the contamination of non-halal ingredients into food is still lacking. This community service activity aims to increase public knowledge, especially in Talaka village, about food additives that are halal, healthy and nutritious and to be able to recognize products that contain food additives that are dangerous to health. This activity was carried out through introductions, giving pre-test questionnaires, providing education on halal, healthy and nutritious food, and giving a post-test afterwards. Nineteen participants answered questions correctly before education was 50%, while after education it was improved to 75%. Based on the results of observations and discussions with counselling participants, information was obtained that the public already understands the importance of choosing food products that are hygienic, halal, healthy and nutritious and that the public knows about additional ingredients—permitted and prohibited foods for food products.

La presencia de quilotórax y de abdomen agudo quiloso luego de un vaciamiento ganglionar cervical izquierdo es una complicación muy poco frecuente. Se presenta el caso de una mujer de 24 años a quien se le realizó un vaciamiento ganglionar cervical bilateral por metástasis de carcinoma de tiroides. El segundo día del posoperatorio presentó dolor abdominal. Los estudios complementarios permitieron diagnosticar quilotórax y abdomen agudo quiloso, posiblemente como consecuencia de la ligadura inadvertida del conducto torácico. Se realizó el tratamiento médico y el drenaje percutáneo de ambas cavidades. Debido a buena evolución se indicó el alta hospitalaria con el drenaje abdominal, y continuar el seguimiento en forma ambulatoria. El tratamiento médico controlado para las lesiones del conducto torácico constituye la primera opción. En caso de mala evolución se debe pensar en la resolución quirúrgica sin demora.
Liderazgo pospandemia. ¿Qué aprendimos? ¿Qué debemos modificar?
Authors:   Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires, Pekolj Juan
Published: November 2023

Among the negative aspects of this pandemic, I would like to mention those who have passed away, the physical and psychological damage caused, the economic losses, the appearance of opportunists, the poor political management, the longest “quarantine”, and the fact that the government issued isolation orders and we isolated ourselves. Nevertheless, some good things also came out of the pandemic. We had to push the limits, adapt, be creative, learn, be innovate, leave our comfort zone, come together, show what we are capable of, appreciate more what we have, and seek to achieve a balance in life. There are two important aspects to consider and underscore in this presentation: the concept of leadership and the impact of the pandemic. Leadership goes far beyond the leader and is the result of the interaction of the leader with his/her team to achieve common targets proposed and based on motivation
Using Working Parameters to Control Formation and Shape of Lotus-Type Pores
Authors: Wei Peng-Sheng , Ou Yu-Ting
Published: November 2023

The development and final shape of lotus-type pores can be manipulated in advance during unidirectional solidification in this study. Independent parameters considered are solidification rate, ambient pressure, and factor accounting for solute concentration at a selected reference state in liquid deviated from that at the top surface. Lotus-type porous materials have contemporarily been used in heat sinks, energy including shock, vibration, and sound absorption in aircraft engines, etc., which strongly depend on directions, distributions, and pore shapes in solid. This model accounts for transient gas pressure in the pore affected by solute transfer, gas, capillary and hydrostatic pressures, and Sieverts’ law or Henry’s law at the bubble cap and top surface. Solute transport across the cap self-consistently accounts for solute convection at the cap based on a reference concentration deviated from that at the top free surface, the amount of solute rejected by the solidification front into the pore, and the convection-affected concentration at the solidification front. The resulting simultaneous systems of unsteady first-order ordinary differential equations are solved by a MATLAB code. The length of lotus-type pores is also interpreted by the conservation of the solute content in the system. The predicted final shapes of lotus-type pores agree with algebraic results previously confirmed by available experimental data.

Published: November 2023

Mobile wheeled robots are one of the most widespread group of service robots today. The simplicity of their design and their ability to better negotiate difficult terrain places them at the forefront. In practice, it is possible to find a variety of mobilewheeled robots, which differ from each other in the number and arrangement of wheels, the variety of structural design, or the suspension of the wheels and their suspension. Current statistics confirm that mobile service robots on wheeled chassis are themost numerous design of all realized applications, technical practice has filled with the diversity of their design solutions. The diversity of wheeled mobile service robots is mainly in the design of the wheeled chassis, the solutions range from single-wheeled to multi-wheeled concepts, from simple variants of the chassis layout to special or combined systems. The purpose of the article is the design of a three-wheeled robot, which will include the derivation of a mathematical model, the construction of a simulation model and the creation of a model in CAD software. An important part of the robot analysis is a complete kinematic model of the mechanical system, which provides all the necessary kinematic quantities for both the dynamic model of the mechanical system (force application, link loading, sizing) and for control needs (synthesis of position and velocity controllers). It is mainly about the position and orientation of the end working point in time and the corresponding position of the individual links of the mechanism. The next step was the overall design of the electronic system by appropriately selecting the electronic components and also creating the overall electronic circuitry. Finally, an experimental realistic model of the mobile robot was created from the simulation results.

Authors: Van der Spuy Stephanus Johannes Hofmeyr , Bornman Dawie
Published: November 2023

Background: Incubates are individuals who are start-up entrepreneurs and have deficiencies vested in their own personal capabilities. These personal deficiencies or shortcomings originate from a lack of entrepreneurial experience; a lack of entrepreneurial orientation; and a lack of entrepreneurial and management skills. It is unclear which personal deficiencies are applicable or unique to incubates within the Northern Cape province, South Africa. Purpose: As South Africa’s unemployment rate is at the highest it has ever been, the question is posed to government regarding what is being done to improve the situation. This study focuses specifically on identifying the personal deficiencies of incubates within the incubator sector and exactly why these factors are negatively impacting incubates. Setting: This study was conducted amongst incubates, incubator managers and incubator staff within the Northern Cape province, South Africa. Methodology: Semi-structured interviews were conducted amongst 63 participants who were Northern Cape incubates. A purposive non-probability sampling strategy was used whereby homogenous and snowballing sampling were used. The interview data was transcribed and analysed into research themes aligned within entrepreneurship. Findings: The main deficiencies identified included a lack of: (1) entrepreneurial experience; (2) entrepreneurial orientation; and (3) entrepreneurial skills. Value: New themes on entrepreneurial deficiencies amongst incubates are identified that are unique to the region and provides recommendations for future research. Professional development, a diversification of commercial activities, along with a selection instrument for applicant-entrepreneurs in incubators within the region are recommended.

Partial Transection of the External Ear Caused by a Mask Worn for COVID-19 Protection
Authors: Omine Fuko , Oshima Junya , Haga Yasushi
Published: November 2023

Introduction. During the COVID-19 pandemic surgical mask-wearing was widely adopted as a means of preventing infections, but there have been several reports of mask-induced skin problems. In this report, we describe a case in which surgery was required for a mask-induced ear injury. Case Report. An otherwise healthy 63-year-old male presented to the plastic surgery department with an auricle injury. He had been using a mask that was too small for his face for more than 1 month; the tight ear loops caused the upper part of his left auricle to begin to dissect, resulting in a large tear. More than a third of the left upper auricle was torn, and the wound surface was epithelialized. The patient had no history of skin disease or psychiatric disorder but was engaged in a job that required wearing a helmet constantly. Surgery was performed to refresh the epithelialized wound surface and suture it, and the patient healed without complication. Conclusion. While mask-wearing mandates and recommendations have considerably eased since the height of the pandemic, the current authors’ experience has brought to light problems related to mask usage. Thus, efforts should be made to investigate the causes of these problems and provide appropriate advice.
Driving Adaptive Colloids Into Unsteady State Operation Via Push-Pull Effects
Authors: Lanz Cornelia , Künnecke Nele , Krysiak Yasar , Polarz Sebastian
Published: November 2023

Unlike conventional colloids showing random mobility because of Brownian motion, active colloids contain nanomotors that translate chemical or physical triggers into directed movement. Whereas the acceleration of such particles works well, it is difficult to decelerate them by request. Driving and stopping functional colloids in dispersion is desirable for precise positioning, active matter therapeutics, or fundamental studies on how dissipative states influence emergent properties of particle ensembles. We developed nanoparticles comprising two independent mechanisms for propulsion, a chemical engine associated with a Janus-type modification of organosilica nanoparticles and a physical locomotion because of a superparamagnetic core inside these particles. Both triggers can be used independently to initiate the particles' directed and anisotropic movement. The magnetic forces can be tuned, most importantly with respect to the angle defining the chemical acceleration. Superposition and a boost state are adopted for a parallel alignment. However, when the magnetic field acting on the particles is turned to an antiparallel orientation, a rapid deceleration can be observed, and the colloids halt.

Published: November 2023

Extracellular environment regulates structures and functions of cells, from molecular up to the tissue level. However, underlying mechanisms that influence organization and adaptation of cancer in 3D environments are not yet fully understood. In this study, we investigate the influence of viscosity of the environment on the mechanical adaptability of human hepatoma cell (HepG2) spheroids in vitro, using hybrid 3D microcapsule reactors formed with droplet-based microfluidics. To mimic the environment with different mechanical properties, HepG2 cells are encapsulated in hybrid alginate core- shell microcapsules with tunable core viscosities achieved by incorporating carboxymethylcellulose. The significant changes in cell and spheroid distribution, proliferation, and cytoskeleton are observed and quantified. Importantly, changes in expression and distribution of F-actin and keratin 8 indicate that the spheroid stiffness varies with viscosity of the surrounding medium. The increase in F-actin levels in viscous medium can be indicative of enhanced tumor cell ability to traverse dense tissue. These results demonstrate that cancer cell assemblies (scale ca. 200-300μm) are able to dynamically adapt to the changes of extracellular viscosity, which holds promise for advancing our understanding of the mechanical characteristics of cancer entities development.

Authors: Morani Kenan , Ayana Esra Kaya , Unay Devrim
Published: November 2023

The significance of efficient and accurate diagnosis amidst the unique challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic underscores the urgency for innovative approaches. In response to these challenges, we propose a transfer learning-based approach using a recently annotated Computed Tomography (CT) image database. While many approaches propose an intensive data preprocessing and/or complex model architecture, our method focuses on offering an efficient solution with minimal manual engineering. Specifically, we investigate the suitability of a modified Xception model for COVID-19 detection. The method involves adapting a pre-trained Xception model, incorporating both the architecture and pre-trained weights from ImageNet. The output of the model was designed to make the final diagnosis decisions. The training utilized 128 batch sizes and 224x224 input image dimensions, downsized from standard 512x512. No further da processing was performed on the input data. Evaluation is conducted on the 'COV19-CT-DB' CT image dataset, containing labeled COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 cases. Results reveal the method's superiority in accuracy, precision, recall, and macro F1 score on the validation subset, outperforming the VGG-16 transfer model and thus offering enhanced precision with fewer parameters. Furthermore, compared to alternative methods for the COV19-CT-DB dataset, our approach exceeds the baseline approach and other alternatives on the same dataset. Finally, the adaptability of the modified Xception transfer learning-based model to the unique features of the COV19-CT-DB dataset showcases its potential as a robust tool for enhanced COVID-19 diagnosis from CT images.

This paper investigates integrating classification, clustering, association rules, and anomaly detection within database architectures to enable intelligent analytics. A unified architecture is proposed along with an asynchronous incremental learning technique to efficiently handle dynamic data. Comprehensive experiments on diverse real-world datasets demonstrate 10–25% improvements in metrics like query latency, accuracy, and costs compared to conventional integration approaches. Emerging applications in multimedia, spatiotemporal, and IoT mining are discussed. The holistic convergence of multiple techniques is highlighted as the key innovation in progressing towards next-generation intelligent databases powered by analytics.
Big data cluster tendency techniques with spectral features for efficient data partitions assessment
Authors: Rajasekhar Pinisetty , Ravindranath V.
Published: November 2023

Cluster tendency assessment in big data poses a challenge, particularly for non-compact separated (non-CS) datasets with irregular boundaries. This paper introduces a novel Spectral-Based Visual Technique (SVT) to address this limitation. Determining the similarity features for the data objects is a crucial computation in data clustering. Distance measures such as Euclidean and cosine are widely employed in clustering applications. By pre-determining cluster tendency, the quality of clusters is obtained using the algorithms of Visual Assessment of Cluster Tendency (VAT) and cosine-based VAT (cVAT). Both VAT and cVAT utilize Euclidean and cosine distance measures to identify the similarity features of objects. For extensive data cluster tendency assessment, an extended concept of VAT, Clustering using Improved Visual Assessment of Tendency (ClusiVAT), is employed to derive clusters with scalable amounts of time and memory loads. However, it operates efficiently for Compactly Separated (CS) datasets. The research gap lies in the need to deliver the quality of big data partitions (or clusters) for non-compact separated (non-CS) datasets. Thus, this paper proposes a spectral-based visual cluster tendency technique to address the challenge of significant data clustering for non-CS datasets. Experimental analysis employs benchmarked datasets to illustrate the performance of the proposed work compared to other techniques.

Construction and Application of An Interdisciplinary Team Teaching Model for Foreign-Related Nursing English in Higher Vocational Colleges from the Perspective of Ecolinguistics
Authors: Luo Yuping
Published: November 2023

Under the background of globalization, there are severe challenges in the cultivation of the professional skills of nursing staff, especially the English skills of foreign-related nursing, which has become an important part of the training of nursing talents. At present, most English teaching of foreign-related nursing in higher vocational colleges follows the traditional grammar teaching model. However, as most of the teaching staff for medical English are English teachers who have limited nursing professional knowledge, the industry characteristics of medical English are not fully demonstrated in the teaching process, and the lack of practicality inevitably reduces the quality of medical English teaching. Therefore, the traditional nursing English teaching model in higher vocational colleges can no longer meet the actual teaching needs. There is an urgent need to implement an interdisciplinary team teaching model that completely fits the industry environment of foreign-related nursing English and apply it flexibly to improve the quality of foreign-related nursing English teaching in higher vocational colleges, and lay a solid foundation for professional practice of nursing staff. Based on the perspective of ecolinguistics, this article explores the application strategies of the interdisciplinary team teaching model for foreign-related nursing English in higher vocational colleges, with the view to provide guidelines for the actual teaching of foreign-related nursing English.
