Published: August 2022

Decision trees have been well studied and widely used in knowledge discovery and decision support systems. One of the applications of binary integer programming to form decision trees or decision making is the knapsack problem. The knapsack problem is an integer programming problem that involves only one constraint. The knapsack problem is generally illustrated with a bag and an item. The problem to be solved is to maximize the price of goods with a certain capacity that can be loaded by a bag with a certain capacity too. In solving the knapsack problem, it can generally be done directly. In this paper we are interested to show how the implicit enumeration method solves the knapsack problem to form an optimal decision tree

Authors: Lestari Nanda , Sawaluddin Sawaluddin , Gultom Parapat
Published: August 2022

The initial decision after treatment in the hospital emergency room is very important because apart from being an indicator of the quality of care for emergency room practitioners, it is also needed to achieve health goals, namely improving the quality of critical care and preventing death. The initial decision was also for an unplanned ICU transfer. Unplanned ICU transfer is the transfer of patients who originally came from the ER (Emergency Room), then to the Inpatient Room (having been treated for 24-48 hours), then to the ICU. Many studies have been carried out to predict the initial decision of unplanned ICU transfer using univariate analysis, logistic regression analysis, and association rules. The association rule algorithm generates rules between patient diagnosis features that form a decision model for unplanned ICU transfers, so it is essential to get an association rule algorithm that is more efficient in generating rules. In this study, we compare two association rule algorithms to get a more efficient algorithm; then, the rules are used to form a decision model for unplanned ICU transfers. The study results obtained that the Apriori algorithm requires a completion time of 3 ms and the FP-Growth algorithm requires a completion time of 31 ms. Hence, the FP-Growth algorithm is 28 ms more efficient than the Apriori algorithm, while the resulting rule generation is the same number of 67 rules. Only 11 rules meet the minsupp and minconf threshold and include the set of Class Association Rules (CAR), which are used to form a decision model for unplanned ICU transfers with binary integer programming

The Covid-19 virus is a new type of disease, the first case of covid-19 was found in Wuhan Province, China in 2019 with general symptoms such as pneumonia. This virus can grow rapidly and can cause serious infections and even death. Due to the very fast transmission of the virus, the WHO declared the Covid-19 virus a pandemic on March 11, 2020. Anyone can be infected with the covid-19 virus, from small children to the elderly. However, various ways have been done, but the cases of covid-19 continue to increase. Various ways have been done to reduce the spread of COVID-19 so that the Covid-19 virus does not spread quickly. Then data mining techniques are needed by implementing the K-Means algorithm because the K-Means algorithm can group data. In this study, 790 patient data were used for COVID-19 patients. The test resulted in 3 clusters grouped based on low, medium, and high categories with a DBI value of -0.332. In cluster 0 with a low category there are 3 districts, in cluster 1 with a medium category there is 1 sub-district, in cluster 2 with a high category, there are 6 districts. From the results of the test, it can be seen that the age susceptible to COVID-19 is 26 to 45 years.

Published: August 2022

Decision support system is a system that can assist companies in making policy. There are several methods in a decision support system, one of which is the MOORA method. The MOORA method does not have a systematic weight determination. In several studies, the determination of the weight value is determined by experts in their field so that the value is less objective. So in this study, the Rank Order Centroid (ROC) and Full Consistency Method (FUCOM) weighting methods will be used systematically and objectively which will be applied to the MOORA method and a comparison of the results of these methods will be carried out with the calculation of the accuracy of the confusion matrix. The purpose of this study was to analyze the results of the weighting comparison using Rank Order Centroid (ROC) and Full Consistency Method (FUCOM) on the MOORA method so as to produce good accuracy. Based on the results of the study, testing with ROC weights on MOORA obtained results of 77.78% accuracy, 84% precision and 84% recall. While testing with ROC weights on MOORA obtained results of 77.78% accuracy, 84% precision and 84% recall. And testing with ROC+FUCOM weights on MOORA obtained 91.67% accuracy, 94% precision and 94% recall. So it can be concluded that the ROC+FUCOM weighting on MOORA produces good accuracy.

EXAMINATION OF COUNTERFEIT CONDUCTORS WITH SIGNS OF A SHORT CIRCUIT
Authors: Koshel Oleksandr
Published: August 2022

The article reviews an expert study of conductors with melting due to a short circuit from the places of fires. Given the urgency of the problem of low-quality conductors on sale, the issue of studying such objects is considered. The use of counterfeit cable and wire products leads to fires, resulting in both material losses and deaths, while the number of fires caused by low-quality products is increasing.

For the most used copper wires, the electrical properties are determined by the presence of impurities, some of which have a significant effect on electrical resistance. The technical standards for round copper electrical rolling (rolled wire) regulate 19 types of impurities, the content of which is limited to thousandths of a percentage only. Thus, the oxygen content is limited to 0.04 %.

In counterfeit products the content of impurities can be limited only by the limit of solubility in liquid metal. In particular, the oxygen content can reach such limits when there will be a copper eutectic with an oxygen content of 0.39 %. In this case not only electrical, but also mechanical and external properties will change, which practically are manifested as a decrease in plasticity and defects in the conductor surface.

The development of methods for studying conductors with melting has been going on for more than a decade, but nowadays not all of the issues of methodological support have been resolved. The use of such indicators as presence of an eutectic phase in copper conductors in the case of counterfeit products does not have methodological support and additional research is necessary.

Given the possibility that low-quality conductors could be present among the objects of study, it is proposed to use the results of metallographic studies only for cases of undoubted use of only high-quality conductors.

For express assessment in expert studies of the copper wire quality, it is recommended to use tests for twisting-untwisting (assessment of mechanical properties) and surface evaluation of the conductor under insulation on samples of areas which are not damaged by fire. The parameters of the surface condition and rejection signs, the number of twisting-unwinding cycles are set by the manufacturer depending on the diameter of the wire.

Key words: research of conductors with signs of short circuit, counterfeit conductors, metallographic researches of conductors from fire places.

A área têxtil tem uma parcela significativa nas indústrias, com etapas de processos que vão desde a cultura da fibra, fiação, tecelagem, enobrecimento e beneficiamento, até a confecção dos produtos têxteis, esses utilizados para desenvolvimentos de produtos de todos tipos. Essas indústrias geram significativa quantidade de resíduos durante o processo produtivo, mas na confecção está a problemática das sobras de tecidos, com produção global estimada em torno de 150 milhões de toneladas por ano, sendo 85% desses, destinados de forma incorreta. Diante desse problema, é iminente repensar esses resíduos, transformando-os a partir de algum método de reciclagem ou de reaproveitamento, utilizando-os como matéria prima para outros processos. As soluções usuais para os resíduos têxteis é a destinação como desfibrados para serem utilizados como isolantes térmicos ou acústicos na indústria da construção civil e para enchimentos de artefatos como almofadas, por exemplo. Isto decorre da dificuldade de encontrar meios adequados de separação das misturas de fibras já que as composições dos tecidos usualmente são mistas. O objetivo deste trabalho foi apresentar estudos sobre reciclagem de tecidos por meios químicos e mecânicos, por meio de estudos da literatura.  A metodologia usada nesta pesquisa foi RSL - Revisão sistemática de literatura, em que foram selecionados trabalhos que abordaram a reciclagem de material têxtil. O panorama atualizado destas informações pode contribuir para novos esforços direcionados à reciclagem têxtil. Os resultados obtidos dão conta de um esforço contínuo, com destaque às questões de reciclagem química em tecidos mistos, grande impedimento para processos simplificados de reciclagem. Têm-se muitas iniciativas interessantes e promissoras a serem avaliadas.
Manifestações orofaciais em crianças violentadas sexualmente: o papel do cirurgião-dentista no diagnóstico
Authors: Vaz Larissa Cristina de Moura
Published: August 2022

O abuso sexual contra crianças e adolescentes é um dos principais problemas de saúde pública mundial, que pode causar consequências físicas e psicológicas de curto e longo prazo. O objetivo desse estudo é revisar a literatura sobre os sinais e sintomas relacionados ao abuso sexual em crianças e adolescentes que podem ser identificados pelo cirurgião-dentista. As manifestações orofaciais mais comuns são compostas por lacerações, hematomas ou abrasões no lábio, língua, freios labiais e linguais, gengiva, mucosa oral, traumatismos dentários, equimoses, mordidas e arranhões. As lesões bucais de violência sexual são difíceis de diagnosticar, porque podem ser confundidos com acidente ou doença, mas sinais como eritema, úlcera, petéquias no palato pode ser significado de abuso sexual através do sexo oral forçado, além da presença de sintomas das doenças sexualmente transmissíveis na região orofacial e orofaríngea. Muitas vítimas não apresentam os sinais físicos supracitados, portanto, os aspectos psicológicos devem ser levados em consideração. O medo por parte dos profissionais da saúde de enxergar a violência é um fato, uma vez que temem pela reação dos familiares, o incorreto diagnóstico e desconhecimento de como realizar a notificação. Em casos de suspeita de abuso sexual, o cirurgião-dentista deve registrar no prontuário do paciente, seguido de notificação aos órgãos competentes. Conclui-se que o odontólogo é um profissional capaz de atuar na identificação de casos envolvendo abuso sexual infantil.

This resulted in unforeseen difficulties and hazards for non-COVID-19 patients in accessing healthcare professionals and facilities. Objectives: The objective of this study was to analyze the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and repeated lockdowns on the non-COVID patients; to understand the social, psychological, and medical issues faced by them; and propose solutions for difficulties faced by this specific cohort of patients. Methods: We conducted a retrospective observational study on all non-COVID patients reporting for non-COVID-19 illnesses. We conducted the data analysis by comparing the trends for 15 months each in the pre-pandemic (1 January 2019 to 31 March 2020) and pandemic periods (1 April 2020 to 30 June 2021). Results: There was a 65.92% decrease in Out Patient Department (OPD) attendance, a 56.05% decrease in admissions, and a 90.33 % decrease in elective surgical procedures in non-COVID-19 patients. However, there was a significant increase in emergency surgeries by 62.16%. Conclusion: There has been a significant albeit much-needed diversion of time, energy, and resources to manage COVID-19 patients in recent times. This has led to a paucity of care opportunities for non-COVID-19 patients, which has been further compounded by the frequent lockdowns. We attempted to understand the impact of the pandemic on non-COVID-19 patients, particularly in peripheral hospitals in Hilly Terrains. We propose the solutions to tackle these issues and describe our experience with them.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a major threat to world health and safety, making it the primary concern of global community that requires immediate preventive measures. Several organs are affected by this disease simultaneously with possible long-lasting sequelae. Disease pathogenesis is influenced by, the type of virus and its mutation, the number of viruses, individual’s immune system and their age, gender, nutritional status, homeostasis between the immune, nervous and endocrine systems, and also physical condition. All of these factors play a role in the onset, duration, severity, and recurrence of the disease. Since the exact mechanism of infection with this virus is not fully understood, in this study we aimed to investigate its effects on the reproductive system in male and female as well as pregnancy outcome.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is the second prevalent organ damage among COVID-19 infected individuals, which mainly affects those with critical diseases or underlying kidney disorders. Emerging data have suggested that AKI is associated with adverse outcomes, severe COVID-19 disease, and high mortality. However, the true nature and pathophysiology of COVID-19-associated kidney injury, and its effect on patients with underlying kidney diseases and transplant recipients, still remains controversial. Accordingly, this review study aimed primarily to describe the history of AKI in COVID-19 infected patients and to achieve a robust understanding of the latest findings on the mechanism of the injury. Secondly, this systematic and precise review of the literature concerning the aspects of AKI in infected patients with chronic kidney disease and transplant recipients provided a comprehensive report of mortality in these individuals. Finally, the present research suggested the possible protective measures that physicians can take to prevent, control, and treat this condition. Our study paves the way for future works with a more robust methodology to better understand COVID-19-related kidney injury.

Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene encodes ACE, an enzyme of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) that plays a significant role in homeostasis and control of blood pressure. It seems that genetic variations can affect ACE function and cause atherosclerosis, one of the most common diseases worldwide, especially in developed countries and one of the leading causes of death in these countries. The presence of ACE insertion/deletion (I/D) affect the function of ACE. This polymorphism can lead to progression of atherosclerosis in some population. Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), Google Scholar and PubMed of the most common diseases worldwide. Additionally, EBSCO and Web of Science have been searched. In this review, we studied the effects of ACE I/D polymorphism in various populations and its influence on the risk of onset and progression of atherosclerosis. Depending on the population and the area under study, polymorphisms can contribute to the risk of disease.

Background: Glaucoma is a significant public health problem due to its substantial increase in the projected number of glaucoma cases. In Ethiopia, glaucoma accounts for 5.2% of irreversible blindness and is the fifth main cause of blindness. The main objective of this study was to modeling time to blindness of left and right eyes of glaucoma patients. Study Design: An institution-based retrospective cohort study. Methods: This study was conducted among 315 glaucoma patients admitted to the Ophthalmology Department of Jimma University Medical Center (JUMC), Southwest Ethiopia, from January 1, 2016, to August 30, 2020. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and semiparametric and parametric copula models were applied to identify factors that affect time to the blindness in glaucoma patients and the dependence between time to the blindness of the left and right eyes, respectively. An Akaike information criterion (AIC) was used to select the best non-nested model. Results: In total, 211 (66.9%) out of 315 glaucoma patients were blind, whereas 104 (33.1%) patients were censored. The median time to the blindness of the left and right eyes was determined to be 12 months. The result suggested that the risk of the blindness in male patients was 1.005 (P=0.01) times higher than that in female patients, and the risk of the blindness in patients who had early, moderate, and advanced glaucoma was estimated to be 0.582 (P=0.002), 0.485 (P=0.001) and 0.887 (P=0.003) times less than that in the patients with absolute glaucoma, respectively. Conclusions: Age, place of residence, gender, type of medication, diabetes disease, stage of glaucoma, duration of treatment, intraocular pressure (IOP), and cup-disk ratio were significantly associated with and affected by the time to the blindness of left and right eyes in glaucoma patients. Awareness should be given to the community to reduce the burden of glaucoma.

Background: Healthcare workers (HCWs) run a high risk of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The HCWs are prone to the SARS-CoV-2 infection in the hospital despite being fully vaccinated. The present study aimed to address the factors associated with the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine breakthrough among HCWs. Study Design: A prospective cohort study. Methods: Participants were 184 HCWs receiving two doses of inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (CoronaVac, Sinovac Life Science). All participants were followed for six months. Confirmed COVID-19 was defined as positive SARS-CoV-2 by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Before undergoing RT-PCR, questionnaires were used to obtain information on demographic characteristics, profession, contact with COVID-19 cases, personal protective equipment (PPE), health protocols adherence, exercise, and nutritional habits. Results: A number of 57 (31%) participants were COVID-19 positive. Close contact with COVID-19 cases (adjusted RR 6.82, 95% CI: 1.97, 47.98, P=0.044), being a resident doctor (adjusted RR 4.72, 95% CI: 1.11, 20.11, P=0.036), improper mask-wearing (adjusted RR 2.36, 95% CI: 1.15, 4.85, P=0.019), and lower frequency of eating fruit and vegetables (adjusted RR 2.73, 95% CI: 1.34, 5.57, P=0.006) increased the risk of vaccine breakthrough. Compared to single surgical masks, KN95 and N95 significantly reduced the risk of COVID-19 (adjusted RR 0.27, 95% CI: 0.07, 0.97, P=0.045 and adjusted RR 0.25, 95% CI: 0.07, 0.87, P=0.029), respectively. Conclusion: As evidenced by the obtained results, being a resident doctor, close contact with confirmed COVID-19 cases, health protocol incompliance, as well as the lower frequency of fruit and vegetable consumption were associated with the risk of vaccine breakthrough among HCWs. Appropriate strategies are needed to prevent the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection among HCWs.

Se estudió el efecto de la densidad de inóculo de Sclerotium cepivorum Berk. y su control mediante tebuconazole (folicur 250 EW) en el cultivo del ajo (Allium sativum L.). Se probaron dos factores: densidad de inóculo con cuatro niveles (0, 10, 25 y 50 esclerocios por kilogramo de suelo) y el fungicida tebuconazole (2 L ha-1) con tres niveles (sin fungicida, dos aplicaciones a 0 y 30 días después de la siembra, y tres aplicaciones a 0, 30 y 60 días, respectivamente). La incidencia de la enfermedad aumentó en forma directamente proporcional a la densidad de inóculo. Asimismo, la pérdida de peso seco de raíz, follaje y bulbo se incrementó a medida que aumentó la densidad de esclerocios a la que se expusieron las plantas. La eficacia del tebuconazole en el control de la enfermedad estuvo en función de la cantidad de esclerocios en el suelo y del número de aplicaciones del fungicida. Al aumentar la densidad de esclerocios disminuyó su efectividad hasta en 42.6 % y al incrementar la frecuencia de aplicaciones aumentó a 87.2 %.
