Authors: Susatyo Jeffry Adijaya , Wibowo Heri
Published: December 2017

Filariasis is a contagious disease caused by worms of the genus Filaria which transmitted through the bite of various species of mosquitoes. In Indonesia, the existence of filariasis cases are still very concerning. Jati Sampurna and Jati Karya villages in Pondokgede Sub-district, Bekasi District, West Java have been known as filariasis endemic area. Length of stay is presumed as one of many factors that affects filariasis occurrence in those villages. This study aimed to determine the distribution of anti-filarial IgG4 on the region and its comparison with the length of stay and residence status. This study was based on secondary data. Secondary data were obtained from primary research data done by cross-sectional method. These data were used to assess the correlation of filarial infection risk factors in pregnant women living in endemic areas based on the distribution of anti-filarial IgG4 in Pondok Gede, Bekasi district, West Java. The study showed that there was an increase in anti-filarial IgG4 against residence status (p=0.017) and a positive correlation between the number of anti-filarial IgG4 with length of stay in years (p=0.003).

Published: December 2017

This case-control study was conducted to assess the relative role of genetic and environmental factors in determining the clinical manifestations of atopy allergy disease in school children, which is part of a large study of the prevalence of allergic diseases in school children in Surabaya. Using a simple multi-stage random sampling, 348 children from 5 elementary schools, 4 junior high schools, and 4 senior high schools in Surabaya were involved in the study. The subjects of the study along with her parents were guided to fill out the modified ISAAC questionnaire and underwent physical examination and skin prick test using 27 common allergen types found in the environment. For the analysis, 110 school children were randomly selected from the parent sample and included in the case group of 55 people (positive skin prick test against > 1 type of allergen), and the control group of 55 people (negative skin prick test). All genetic and environmental factors data were collected and analyzed. Most of the subjects had clinical manifestations of allergic rhinitis (66.36%), asthma (21.82%), food allergies (10.9%), and atopic dermatitis (6.36%). Complete models for multiple logistic regression analysis can only be performed for overall atopic disease and allergic rhinitis disease. The first birth order and exposure to home dust mites were the most significant clinical manifestations of atopy disease (OR 4.548, 95% CI: 1.813-11.410, p=0.01). Atopy status of the father was the only significant determinant factor for the manifestation of allergic rhinitis in the study subjects (OR 3.929; 95% CI: 1.143-13.052, p=0.03). Both genetic and environmental factors interacted and determined clinical manifestations of atopy allergy disease in school pupils. The father's genetic factors were more dominant than maternal genetic factors in determining the clinical manifestations of allergic rhinitis in offspring.
Comparative study of strengthening strategies for reinforced concrete frame with soft ground story
Authors: Islam Md. Shafiqul , Shuvo Aojoy Kumar
Published: December 2017

One of the common forms of reinforced concrete (RC) framed building is to provide parking facility at ground level which is created by not providing any infill masonry at parking floor level. Due to the presence of infill walls in the entire upper story except for the ground story makes the upper stories much stiffer than the open ground story resulting in their poor performance during earthquakes. So strengthening of such reinforced concrete (RC) frame buildings with an open ground story is indispensable. In the present study several Strengthening options were evaluated for their effectiveness in improving the performance of such building without disturbing the parking facility of ground story based on linear and nonlinear analysis. The strengthening techniques studied were changing column dimension, providing diagonal bracing, lateral buttresses, shear wall, and providing chevron. The Strengthened building results were compared with the results of the original structure to deduce the structural performance improvement and cost associated to each solution were determined to develop cost efficiency relation for different strengthening technique. Providing lateral buttresses in the open first story was found to be more feasible in both case of increase ground story strength and economic point of view among all strengthening options.
DEVELOPING STUDENTS CRITICAL THINKING THROUGH INTRODUCING VIDEO MATERIALS INTO EDUCATIONAL PROCESS
Authors: Korshuk T. L.
Published: December 2017

The article deals with the problem of teaching critical thinking in course of English learning. Critical thinking is one of the main principles of successful professional work. The educational process in Ukraine having long been marred by routine procedures, outdated information and old methods now undergoes a series of changes moving to European standards of Bologna process. The research of using video materials in educational process has already been studied by many scientists and philologists. The advantages of English teaching with the help of visibility, including audio, text and pictures, are proven and widely asserted by many teachers. Therefore, the video materials produce both practical and theoretical information; moreover, they provide additional motivation and can be used for interdisciplinary connections. The research shows that students taking regular tasks based on video materials are progressing faster and develop not only language skills of audition and speaking but also critical thinking skills. The tasks for developing critical thinking can be connected with teaching academic writing and speaking, namely, producing presentations and discussions. There is much to be done for developing a system or special storage of video materials that can give benefits to development students’ critical thinking and therefore productivity of educational process.
Political Reforms for Prosperity and Political Resistance in Botswana
Authors: Maundeni Zibani , Masilo Bontle , Petros Patience
Published: December 2017

A people thought to be passive, weak and docile surprised many when they revolted against encroaching authoritarianism in their country - Botswana. What started under Ian Khama as the most feared and potentially productive regime turned out to be the most opposed and most beleaguered. How did this reverse happen? Many authors (including Good, Taylor and others) mistakenly assumed that Botswana’s civil society was too weak and fearful, and that it would not stand up to any dictatorship. In contrast, Botswana towards the end of 2011 had reached a point at which civil society constantly challenged and clashed with government, resisting growing authoritarian tendencies. The political scenario of mid 2011 characterised by a long drawn public service strike was the clearest signal that the president was no longer feared. This paper focuses on Khama’s political reforms and the political resistance that accompanied them. It argues that Ian Khama introduced several reforms that met lots of resistance that threatened the stability and sustainability of the Botswana society. The paper concludes that political reforms have left the Botswana society deeply divided, but alert.

Authors: Minani Isidore , Ishengoma Esther K.
Published: December 2017

This study explores the role of financial linkages in mitigating barriers to rural active poor for accessing microcredit. Through the interview to 34 Microfinance institutions and their 74 clients selected from Tanzania and Kenya, the exploratory research using the Content Analysis technique established that financial linkages have significantly contributed in increasing MFIs loanable funds. However, they have not mitigated the barriers to microcredit access including the types and size of collaterals, mandatory savings/deposits amount, higher-than-market interest rates, hidden charges, unbending repayment arrangement, short grace period and inflexible initial loan size which are among key barriers to rural active poor to access microcredit despite its availability. Findings implication appeals for objective national microfinance policy revisit to address aforementioned barriers in both countries if the sector is to benefit the rural active poor.
Epigenomics of Plant’s Responses to Environmental Stress
Authors: Kumar Suresh
Published: December 2017

Genome-wide epigenetic changes in plants are being reported during the development and environmental stresses, which are often correlated with gene expression at the transcriptional level. Sum total of the biochemical changes in nuclear DNA, post-translational modifications in histone proteins and variations in the biogenesis of non-coding RNAs in a cell is known as epigenome. These changes are often responsible for variation in expression of the gene without any change in the underlying nucleotide sequence. The changes might also cause variation in chromatin structure resulting into the changes in function/activity of the genome. The epigenomic changes are dynamic with respect to the endogenous and/or environmental stimuli which affect phenotypic plasticity of the organism. Both, the epigenetic changes and variation in gene expression might return to the pre-stress state soon after withdrawal of the stress. However, a part of the epigenetic changes may be retained which is reported to play role in acclimatization, adaptation as well as in the evolutionary processes. Understanding epigenome-engineering for improved stress tolerance in plants has become essential for better utilization of the genetic factors. This review delineates the importance of epigenomics towards possible improvement of plant’s responses to environmental stresses for climate resilient agriculture.
Influence of Abrasive Shape on the Abrasion and Phase Transformation of Monocrystalline Silicon
Authors: Shi Junqin , Wei Xinqi , Chen Juan , Sun Kun , Fang Liang
Published: December 2017

Effect of abrasive shape on the three-body abrasion behaviors of monocrystalline silicon was investigated by Molecular dynamics modelling. The axial ratio of abrasive particle was varied from 1.00, i.e., a complete sphere, to 0.40 to mimic abrasive shape. The particle’s movement turns toward sliding from rolling when the axial ratio becomes less than a critical value 0.46. In the abrasion process, the friction force and normal force showed an approximately sinusoid-like fluctuation for the rolling ellipsoidal particles, while the front cutting of particle caused that friction force increased and became larger than normal force for sliding particles. The phase transformation process was tracked under different particle’ movement patterns. The Si-II and Bct5 phase producing in loading process can partially transform to Si-III/Si-XII phase and backtrack to original crystal silicon under pressure release, which also occurred in the abrasion process. The secondary phase transformation showed difference for particles’ rolling and sliding movements after three-body abrasion. The rolling of particle induced the periodical and inhomogeneous deformation of substrates, while the sliding benefited producing high-quality surface in CMP process. This study aiming to construct more precise model to understand the wear mechanism benefits evaluating the MEMS wear and CMP process of crystal materials.
Valorization of Municipal Waterworks Sludge to Produce Ceramic Floor Tiles
Authors: Rodrigues Lara P. , Holanda José Nilson F.
Published: December 2017

In municipal waterworks large amounts of waste in the form of sludge have to be discarded. This investigation focuses on the processing of ceramic floor tiles incorporated with a municipal waterworks sludge. Four floor tile formulations containing up to 10 wt. % of the municipal waterworks sludge in replacement of kaolin were prepared. The floor tile processing route consisted of dry powder granulation, uniaxial pressing, and firing between 1190 and 1250 °C using a fast-firing cycle (<60 min). The densification behavior and technological properties of the floor tile pieces as function of the sludge addition and firing temperature were determined. The development of the microstructure was followed by XRD and SEM/EDS. The results show that the replacement of kaolin with municipal waterworks sludge, in the range up to 10 wt. %, allows the production of ceramic floor tiles (group BIb and group BIIa, ISO 13006 Standard) at lower firing temperatures. These results suggest a new possibility for valorization of municipal waterworks sludge with many economical and environmental benefits.
Life Emerged from [GADV]-Protein World, but Not from RNA World!?
Authors: Ikehara Kenji
Published: December 2017

All life on Earth uses three integrated molecular systems in which genetic information contained in DNA base sequences is transmitted to ribosomes by RNA and a genetic code, then translated into the amino acid sequences of structural and catalytic proteins. Therefore, the most important point for understanding the origin of life is to determine how such systems could emerge from random processes on the early Earth. In this review, two alternatives are compared: the RNA world hypothesis and the [GADV]-protein world hypothesis. [GADV] refers to four amino acids, Gly [G], Ala [A], Asp [D] and Val [V] that are conserved in the amino acid sequences of many common proteins. Here I will argue that the origins of the three primary processes required for life to begin can be better explained by the GADV hypothesis than the RNA world hypothesis. The GADV hypothesis also incorporates a conversion process by which random polymers can evolve into proteins with ordered sequences.
Inhospital Palliative Care: Should We Need to Reconsider What Role Hospitals Should Have in Patients with End-Stage Disease or Advanced Cancer?
Authors: Cotogni Paolo , Saini Andrea , De Luca Anna
Published: December 2017

Traditionally, palliative care (PC) systems focused on the needs of advanced cancer patients. But, most patients needing PC have end-stage organ diseases. Similarly, PC models focused on the needs of patients in hospice or at home; however, in most cases PC is provided in acute hospitals. Indeed, the symptom burden that these patients experience in the last year of life frequently forces them to seek care in Emergency Department. The majority of them are admitted to the hospital and many die. This issue poses important concerns. Despite the efforts of attending healthcare professionals, inhospital patients do not receive optimal care near the end-of-life. Also, evidence is emerging that delay in identifying patients needing PC have a detrimental impact on their quality of life (QoL). Therefore, there is an urgent need to early and properly identify these patients among those hospitalized. Several trials reported the efficacy of PC in improving the QoL in these patients. Each hospital should ensure that a multidisciplinary PC team is available to support attending physicians to achieve the best QoL for both PC patients and their families. This review discusses the role and the impact of inhospital PC in patients with end-stage disease or advanced cancer.

Published: December 2017

The health benefits of purple sweetpotato, which is used as an edible food in its natural state and in processed foods and as a natural color pigment, have been recognized. In Japan, sweetpotato has been economically produced in regions below 36°4′N latitude, however, cultivation areas are beginning to expand further north. The anthocyanin and polyphenolics in purple sweetpotatoes cultivated in different locations; I (42°92′ N, 143°04′ E), II (35°99′ N, 140°01′ E), and III (31°72′ N, 131°03′ E), were compared over two years. Total anthocyanin and polyphenolic contents in purple sweetpotatoes tended to be high in location I. Their contents significantly differed over the two years in locations I and III and was dependent on temperature during cultivation. The anthocyanin and polyphenolic compositions differed between locations. The peonidin/cyanidin ratios were higher in location III compared with I and II in all varieties. The relative amount of chlorogenic acid was higher in location I, while the amount of 3,4- and 4,5-dicaffeoyolquinic acids were higher in location III, suggesting that the variability of the anthocyanin and polyphenolic content and composition was dependent on cultivation conditions. This study suggested that northern areas in Japan are an alternative production area and may yield higher amounts of anthocyanin and polyphenolics.

Authors: Viel Quentin , Esposito Antonella , Saiter Jean-Marc , Santulli Carlo , Turner Joseph A.
Published: December 2017

In this work, the apparent shear strength at the interface between a bamboo fiber and the surrounding poly(lactic acid) (PLA) matrix is quantified. A method for processing pull-out test samples within a controlled embedded length is proposed and the details of the test procedure are presented, along with a critical discussion of the results. Two series of samples are considered: untreated and mercerized bamboo fibers from the same batch, embedded in the same polyester matrix. Electron and optical microscopy are used to observe the fiber-matrix interface before and after the test, and to identify the failure mode of each sample, especially as regards the occurrence of fibrillation in the fiber bundles. The values of apparent interfacial shear strength are calculated only for regular fibers successfully pulled out from the matrix, and reported with their statistical variations. Mercerization, whose efficiency was proven by Fourier Transform InfraRed (FTIR) spectroscopy, did not appear though to improve the quality of the interface (τapp = 7.0 ± 3.1 MPa for untreated fibers and τapp = 5.3 ± 2.4 MPa for treated fibers).

Published: December 2017

An explosive growth in vehicular wireless services and applications gives rise to spectrum resource starvation. Cognitive radio has been used to vehicular networks to mitigate the impending spectrum starvation problem by allowing vehicles to fully exploit spectrum opportunities unoccupied by licensed users. Efficient and effective detection of licensed user is a critical issue to realize cognitive radio applications. However, spectrum sensing in vehicular environments is a very challenging task due to vehicles mobility. For instance, vehicle mobility has a large effect on the wireless channel, thereby impacting the detection performance of spectrum sensing. Thus, gargantuan efforts have been made in order to analyze the fading properties of mobile radio channel in vehicular environments. Indeed, numerous studies have demonstrated that the wireless channel in vehicular environments can be characterized by a temporally correlated Rayleigh fading. In this paper, we focus on energy detection for spectrum sensing and a counting rule for cooperative sensing based on Neyman-Pearson criteria. Further, we go into the effect of the sensing and reporting channels condition on spectrum sensing performance under temporally correlated Rayleigh sensing channel. For local and cooperative sensing, we derive some alternative expressions for average probability of miss detection. The pertinent numerical and simulating results are provided to further validate our theoretical analyses under a variety of scenarios.

Published: December 2017

The aim of the present study is to investigate both the performance and preferences of males and females Computer Science (CS) graduates. In order to attain the above goal, a quantitative case study was conducted regarding 89 degrees, acquired from 2006 to 2012, from the Department of Computer Science and Technology, University of Peloponnese, Greece. The analysis of the data revealed that in terms of performance, no significant differences between the mean grades of males and females exist, in almost most of the courses included in the curriculum of the aforementioned CS department. Any statistically significant differences in performances were present in almost equal number of courses in favor of males and females. It seems also, that females performed better in the courses they selected more than males. Regarding preferences, in CS courses, it seems that gender differences are existent. Males preferred more than females did core programming courses and advanced topics of Software Systems, computer networks, computer engineering, robotics and mathematics, whereas females preferred more the study of algorithms and security issues, computer fractals, data management, computer architecture, and mobile communication. In addition, females preferred courses in reference with humanities and social sciences, CS terminology, and career opportunities. Yet, females did not select any of programming lab-based courses, computer engineering, computer network issues and robotics.
Growth Hormone (GH) and Cardiovascular system
Authors: Caicedo Diego , Díaz Oscar , Devesa Pablo , Devesa Jesús
Published: December 2017

This review describes the positive effects of growth hormone on the cardiovascular system. We analyze why the vascular endothelium is a real internal secretion gland, whose inflammation is the first step for developing atherosclerosis, as well as the mechanisms by which GH acts on the vascular endothelium improving its dysfunction. We also report how GH acts on coronary arterial disease and heart failure, and on peripheral arterial disease inducing the generation of new collateral vessels able to bypass a major artery occlusion. We include some preliminary data from a trial in which GH or placebo is given to elder people suffering from critical limb ischemia, showing the effects of the hormone on plasma markers of inflammation, and stating that the administration of GH in short periods of time is safe and effective even in diabetic patients. We also analyze how Klotho may have strong relationships with GH, inducing, after being released from the damaged vascular endothelium, the pituitary secretion of GH to repair the damaged tissue. Lastly, we show how GH induces wound healing by increasing the blood flow to the ischemic tissue. In summary, we postulate that short-time GH administration is useful for treating cardiovascular diseases.

Interaction and parasocial relationships are one-way relationships formed through the media. This type of relationship can be seen through various social media accounts owned by celebrities. Fans interactions with their idol celebrities in social media will lead to the formation of positive and negative parasocial relationships. This study was conducted to see how the relationship and parasocial relationship that exists between the fans with the celebrities in social media. Through observation on social media accounts owned by several celebrities in Indonesia, and in-depth interviews conducted with informants; It is known that various comments given by fans is a description of a parasocial interaction. Fans who always comments on every updated information uploaded by their idol, shows a parasocial relationship. This relationship is a picture of emotional attachment from the fans. The interaction and parasocial relationship in social media are closely related to the concept of hyperreality. All things related to a particular celebrity may be rendered artificially, so the fans will eventually form identification of the celebrity with hyperrealitas or reality that is different from the actual reality.

Negative content is a common thing encountered in social media. Not resolved yet, precisely social media is used as reference or source by mass media. In fact, media literacy has been put into practice and exposed the dangers of negative content since long time ago. Two interesting phenomena are; negative content that predicted would be soar on Jakarta Governor Election, April 2017, was missed. Those negative content still exists, organized, even commodified nowdays. The second phenomenon, the community is not just as an audience anymore. They even more daring to exist as an artist in social media. The study aims to analyze the use of media and its implications on media institution. It is important to determine the accuracy of media literacy strategies based on massive, reactive, and plural Indonesian public character. Research is in the literature review area, analyzing mass communication strategy, and presented by descriptive qualitative. The Elaboration Likelihood Model that explains central or peripheral routes of public message processing and attribution is used as the theoretical basis. The results; public using central routes are motivated for economic and social benefits. While the aspect of ability of the route is not synergy due to low competence and public ability to be critical. The peripheral route is formed by convenience, wide, and realtime interaction in social media. Researcher concludes, literacy requires ethical material and its implications in social life. For example by showing the impact and relevance of media usage in social situations. In addition, public access to seek the truth, provide feedback, and discussions need to be opened wide so that the public can think critically without intervention or doctrine.

ABSTRAK. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui adanya (1) hubungan kecepatan lari dengan hasil lompat jauh gaya menggantung, (2) hubungan daya ledak otot tungkai dengan hasil lompat jauh gaya menggantung dan (3) hubungan kecepatan lari dan daya ledak otot tungkai dengan hasil lompat jauh gaya menggantung secara bersama-sama pada mahasiswa Kuliah Olahraga Prestasi Atletik Fakultas Ilmu Keolahragaan Universitas Negeri Jakarta.

Pengambilan data ini dilaksanakan tanggal 20 Desember 2016 di Stadion Atletik Pemuda GOR Rawamangun Jakarta Timur. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah deskriptif menggunakan teknik studi korelasi, dengan sampel sebanyak 30 mahasiswa Kuliah Olahraga Prestasi Atletik Fakultas Ilmu Keolahragaan Universitas Negeri Jakarta dari jumlah 90 mahasiswa terdaftar sebagai anggota dengan teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan purposive sampling.

Instrumen penelitian adalah dengan melakukan pengukuran terhadap variabel-variabel terdiri dari tiga tes, yaitu tes sprint 20 meter untuk mengetahui kecepatan lari, tes standing broad jump untuk mengetahui daya ledak otot tungkai, dan yang terakhir tes lompat jauh gaya menggantung. Teknik analisis yang digunakan adalah mencari regresi lalu menghitung korelasi dari variabel dengan membandingkan dengan f-tabel pada taraf signifikan 0,05.

Berdasarkan analisis hasil penelitian diperoleh:

hubungan antara kecepatan lari dengan hasil lompat jauh gaya menggantung, dengan persamaan garis linier = 10,37 – 1,59 , koefisien korelasi (ry2) = 0,87, yang berarti tingkat hubungannya masuk dalam kategori tinggi. Koefisien determinasi (ry1²) = 0,749  yang berarti variabel kecepatan lari memberikan sumbangan dengan hasil lompat jauh gaya menggantung sebesar 74,90%.

hubungan antara daya ledak otot tungkai dengan hasil lompat jauh gaya menggantung, dengan persamaan garis linier Ŷ =0,35 + 1,64 X2, koefisien korelasi (ry1) = 0,75, yang berarti tingkat hubungannya masuk dalam kategori sangat tinggi. Koefisien determinasi (ry1²) = 0,569, yang berarti variabel daya ledak otot tungkai memberikan sumbangan terhadap hasil lompat jauh gaya menggantung sebesar 56,90%.

hubungan antara kecepatan lari dan daya ledak otot tungkai dengan hasil lompat jauh gaya menggantung, dengan persamaan garis linier Ŷ= 7,87 - 1,27 + 0,82 , koefisien korelasi Ry1-2 = 0,88, yang berarti tingkat hubungannya masuk dalam kategori sangat tinggi. Koefisien determinasi (Ry1-2)² = 0,771 yang berarti variabel kecepatan lari dan daya ledak otot tungkai dengan hasil lompat jauh gaya menggantung memberikan sumbangan sebesar 77,10%. Dalam penelitian ini kecepatan lari dan daya ledak otot tungkai secara bersama-sama memberikan kontribusi sebesar 77,10% pada hasil lompat jauh gaya menggantung. Sisanya sebesar 23,90% ditentukan oleh faktor lainnya.
