Authors: Fernandes Fernanda Ferreira , Moreira Amanda Costa , Pinto Patrícia Cristina Gomes
Published: May 2024

INTRODUÇÃO: Deve-se reforçar o cuidado na administração de medicamento para o recém-nascido, considerando o aleitamento materno e o processo de saúde-doença. OBJETIVO: Descrever o uso de medicamento administrado ao recém-nascido no contexto do aleitamento materno, profilaxia e terapêutica de doenças. METODOLOGIA: Trata-se de um estudo de revisão bibliográfica da literatura com interesse na educação continuada, a fim de que o leitor adquira e atualize o conhecimento sobre o tema. RESULTADOS E DISCUSSÃO: Há necessidade de se refinar a escolha do medicamento para a lactante a fim de manter o aleitamento, pois pode haver passagem do medicamento pelo leite materno. As terapias medicamentosas para os recém-nascidos integram grande parte da neonatologia. Devemos estar atentos à presença de efeito adverso por medicamento em neonatologia. As falhas no processo de utilização de medicamento contribuem para a redução da segurança do paciente. A definição de medicamento de uso não licenciado para o recém-nascido engloba o originado de modificações de medicamento licenciado, como aquele modificado na forma farmacêutica, sem autorização de órgão regulador para venda, importado, contraindicado e que não tem informação para uso nessa população. CONSIDERAÇÕES FINAIS: Reiteramos o uso prudente de medicamento para a lactante e a segurança da profilaxia e tratamentos de doenças no recém-nascido. A rede de educação de fornecimento de medicamento no período neonatal deve envolver toda a equipe de saúde e a indústria farmacêutica. É importante estimular a pesquisa e a divulgação dos resultados para que possamos zelar cada vez mais pela segurança na administração de medicamento ao recém-nascido.

INTRODUÇÃO: A doença de Chagas (DC) é uma condição infecciosa transmitida pelo protozoário Trypanosoma Cruzi e é considerada uma doença tropical negligenciada. Essa condição está relacionada à manutenção do ciclo da pobreza, em que mulheres pobres e sem acesso ao diagnóstico e tratamento podem transmiti-la aos filhos. OBJETIVO: Compreender as formas maternas e neonatais da DC, além de expor orientações para o diagnóstico e tratamento da enfermidade. METODOLOGIA: Mediante revisão bibliográfica, foram consultados 8 documentos oficiais da área, incluídos os de natureza nacional e internacional, em forma de guia, consenso, protocolo clínico, publicações de dados epidemiológicos e acordos internacionais. De forma complementar, foram lidos 2 artigos após busca nas bases de dados BVS e Pubmed, inclusos trabalhos publicados nos últimos 5 anos e excluídos aqueles de acesso privado ou que não atendessem ao objetivo da pesquisa. RESULTADOS E DISCUSSÃO: Em 2010, um terço das novas infecções foram adquiridas de forma congênita. A prevalência mundial em gestante é de 1% a 40%, com 15.000 casos anuais de infecção congênita na América Latina. Apesar disso, estima-se que em 2015, mais de 90% das pessoas atingidas no mundo não tinham acesso ao diagnóstico e ao tratamento sistemático. A despeito dos elevados impactos na morbimortalidade, tal parasitose segue sem a devida atenção dos órgãos de saúde, em especial no que concerne à transmissão vertical, ainda pouco explorada. CONSIDERAÇÕES FINAIS: Frequentemente a DC se apresenta assintomática, entretanto, em alguns casos, pode ocasionar manifestações cardíacas e neurológicas em mulheres e crianças, podendo inclusive ocasionar morte neonatal. Logo, é recomendada a triagem pré-natal em mulheres expostas ao risco de transmissão e em filhos de mães infectadas. O tratamento é feito com benznidazol e nifurtimox.

Published: May 2024

Monitoring changes occurring in water bodies is a tool to make a sound decision on water quality management. This work investigates water quality parameters and metabolites in the Bloukrans, Buffalo, Swartkops and Tyhume Rivers in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa. The water physicochemical parameters assessed include the dissolved oxygen, oxidation-reduction potentials, temperature, Hydrogen ion concentration, salinity, conductivity, turbidity and total dissolved solids measured with a pre-calibrated Hanna Multiparameter instrument on-site. Chemical oxygen demand, phosphate, chloride, ammonium, sulphate and nitrate ions were measured in the laboratory with a UVmini spectrophotometer. FT-IR analysis of extracted metabolites was done on a Perkin Elmer FT-IR spectrometer. The result shows that upstream river samples have lower COD values and below the detection level in some. The concentrations of phosphate, chloride, ammonium, sulphate and nitrate ions were above the recommended values in the wastewater effluents, midstream and downstream river samples. FT-IR peaks similar to vinylidene, saturated aliphatic aldehydes, aryl aldehydes, primary amines, hydantoin amides, halogen, and organofluorides were common in the wastewater effluent samples and the receiving rivers. Grahamstown treated wastewater effluents and its receiving Bloukrans River were distinguished with absorption peaks of urethane and aromatic aldehydes. Absorption peaks of sulphonyl halides were present only on the spectra of treated wastewater effluents of Alice and the receiving downstream Tyhume River. Multivariate analysis shows correlations between the water samples from different geographical locations and treated wastewater effluents. It is concluded that the quality of the rivers was very poor and more efforts are needed to make the treated wastewater conform to the acceptable standard for a sustainable aquatic ecosystem.

Establishment of a plant regeneration system through direct organogenesis or via callus is also a prerequisite to further in vitro genetic manipulation of the cultivar through somaclonal variation, in vitro mutagenesis and genetic transformation. Production of sufficient numbers of plants of a unique genotype is possible using in vitro culture system. In this study, the effect of various concentrations and combinations of plant growth regulators for in vitro regeneration of sugarcane via callus was described using leaf-sheath as explants. Thus, a reproducible protocol for induction of callus and regeneration into plantlets were developed in sugarcane var. china using leaf-sheath as explants. Potential callus induction was observed on MS medium supplemented with 4.5 mg/l 2,4-D, in which 80% explants induced callus after culture initiation of 90 days. Shoot formation from the callus was optimum on MS + 1.0 mg/l GA3 + 0.5 mg/l Kin., in which 70% of the cultured calli formed shoots. The average number of shoot formed per culture callus was 27.0 ± 2.50 and the average shoot length of 6.5 ± 0.50 cm were achieved in this medium after culture of 60 days. Regenerated shoots rooted well when they were transferred into half strength of MS + 2.50 mg/l NAA, in which 90% shoots rooted within 30 days of culture. The average number of root produced per shoot was 18.0 ± 2.25 and the average root length of 7.50 ± 1.20 cm were observed in this medium. Ninety percent of the in vitro raised plantlets were survived in the natural environment.

Published: May 2024

People's awareness of thyroid diseases has gradually grown along with the gradual rise in thyroid cancer incidence. Thyroid dysfunction imposes a significant psychological burden on those who are diagnosed, as it affects most physiological processes. At the moment, ultrasonography and fine needle aspiration cytology are the primary methods used to diagnose thyroid cancer. There are still certain thyroid nodules that cannot be accurately and adequately classified as benign or malignant prior to surgery. Consequentially, we suggested using a more sensitive biomarker to diagnose thyroid cancer. Taurine is measured in the plasma of 60 patients from the National Cancer Institute and 10 healthy volunteers. After a full clinical examination, 20 patients were diagnosed with goitres, 20 with benign tumours, and 20 with malignant tumours. The results showed non-significant (P > 0.05) changes in the levels of TSH in all patients except in the goitre group (P < 0.001). Serum taurine levels exhibited values that significantly differed from normal (P< 0.05) for goitre and benign tumours and (P < 0.001) for malignant tumours. In conclusion, it would appear that taurine can be used as a sensitive biomarker in the early prognosis of thyroid cancer.

Published: May 2024

Pseudoaneurysm of the uterine artery is among the rare causes of postpartum secondary hemorrhage. Its diagnosis is suspected in the presence of significant uterine bleeding without any other obvious cause, and its diagnostic confirmation relies on Doppler ultrasound and angiography. We report the cases of two patients who experienced postpartum secondary hemorrhage, in whom pelvic ultrasound suspected an aneurysm, confirmed and treated by angiography. The post-embolization outcomes were favorable, marked by complete cessation of bleeding. Clinical and ultrasound follow-up at one month did not reveal recurrence of bleeding and demonstrated the disappearance of the previously described pseudoaneurysm.

Published: May 2024

Introduction: The Apgar score is a critical tool for assessing the health of newborns immediately after birth, with implications for immediate clinical care decisions. Despite its established importance, variations in the comprehension and application of the Apgar score among healthcare professionals can significantly affect neonatal outcomes. Objective: This cross-sectional study aimed to assess the comprehension and application of the Apgar score among healthcare professionals in Dhaka, Bangladesh, to identify gaps in knowledge and practice that could impact neonatal care outcomes. Methods: Conducted between September and December 2022 at a tertiary medical college and hospital in Dhaka, this study involved 80 nurses from the labor room, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected via face-to-face interviews using a pre-tested semi-structured questionnaire, with knowledge assessed on a 24-point scale and categorized as good (>15) or poor (<15). Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0. Results: Most respondents (31.78% aged 27-33 years and 32.63% aged 34-39 years) were nursing college graduates (40.69%). A significant knowledge gap was identified, with only 25.33% demonstrating a good level of understanding of the APGAR score. Notable discrepancies were found in the recognition of the Apgar score's components, criteria, and clinical implications. Educational level significantly influenced Apgar score knowledge (p=0.046), with nursing college graduates showing greater understanding. Recent training appeared to impact knowledge positively, suggesting the need for continuous professional development. Conclusion: The study highlights a concerning gap in the understanding and application of the Apgar score among healthcare professionals in Dhaka, emphasizing the need for enhanced neonatal care education and training. Addressing these gaps through comprehensive educational programs and continuous professional development is crucial for improving neonatal assessment practices and outcomes in Bangladesh.

Published: May 2024

Introduction: Scaphocephaly is a cranial malformation resulting from premature closure of the sagittal suture. In some cases, the diagnosis is made late, leading to delayed corrective surgery. Due to the necessity of early surgical intervention, we present this condition to facilitate understanding by any physician and improve the quality of life for patients. Observation: A seven-month-old female infant presented with worsening cranial vault deformity present since birth. Morphologically, the patient exhibited a narrow and elongated head, accompanied by a median frontal bulge, with a cranial circumference of 49 cm. Standard frontal and lateral radiographs revealed an elongated skull with closure of the sagittal suture. CT scan revealed complete fusion of the sagittal suture with the classic appearance of "boat-shaped" skull. We employed the standard H-type craniectomy method. The surgical outcome, assessed 8 months post-intervention, was satisfactory both neurologically and in terms of psychomotor and aesthetic development. Conclusion: Without intervention, scaphocephaly can lead to aesthetic discomfort and contribute to low self-esteem, as well as difficulties in social, academic, and professional integration.
AI Cyber Defense and eBPF
Authors: Alex Mathew
Published: May 2024

This paper will delve into the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and extended Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) technology to enhance cyber defense capability. The most important aspect of AI is detection of threats where it employs sophisticated algorithms in the analysis of large data sets to identify any form of pattern which signals a threat in cyberspace. It enhances behavioral analysis in the monitoring of user and system behavior to identify suspicious activities. AI also helps to instantly react against the threats by automatically taking actions like isolating an infected machine or blocking the suspicious network traffic in order to minimize the response time and consequent damage. AI can predict the attacks based on historical data and current trends and design proactive defense strategies. On the other hand. eBPF technology complements AI by providing programmable kernel tracing, real-time monitoring, low overhead, and security enhancements. Attaching eBPF programs to kernel hooks provides insights into network traffic, system events, and application behavior, intrusion detection, performance monitoring, and troubleshooting. Its implementation is still optimal with less performance impact on the system. The system retains its robust security stance due to the deployment of eBPF, enforcement of kernel-level security policies, and detection of malicious activities. This synergy between AI and eBPF would mean smarter cybersecurity solutions that can change adeptly with each emerging threat and help raise defenses for the organization.

Adrenocortical carcinoma is a rare tumor, representing 0.2% of pediatric cancers. Diagnosis is made on a combination of clinical, biological, radiological, and anatomopathological arguments. Treatment involves tumor excision surgery, sometimes supplemented by chemotherapy for forms with a high risk of recurrence. Prognosis is often reserved, with a non-negligible death rate. This report presents three cases of adrenocortical carcinoma treated at our institution between 2017 and 2023. The patients were three girls aged 5 years, 8 months, and 11 years, respectively. They were admitted for signs of hyperandrogenism and arterial hypertension. The tumor was left adrenal in all patients. The histological score was Severe Weiss 6 or 7. All patients underwent tumor resection, and they all benefited from this procedure. Despite chemotherapy in one patient, normalization of blood pressure figures postoperatively, two patients progressed to recurrence and subsequently died. The objective of this study is, through three observations, to describe the problem of the management of adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) on the one hand, and to review the literature on the management and the prognosis of corticosteroid ACC in children.

Published: May 2024

Introduction: moral harassment in the workplace is a growing phenomenon worldwide. Leymann defined it as a form of psychological terrorism that manifests itself over a relatively long period of hostile words or actions expressed or manifested by one or more people towards a third person (target) at work. It causes damaging consequences on the mental and physical workers health, with negative economic impacts on the company. Objectives: our objective was to study the epidemiological characteristics, the clinical aspects, and the consequences of moral harassment among the medical and paramedical staff of the Mohammed VI university hospital in Marrakech. Methods: We carried out a descriptive transversal study over six months covering 329 caregivers working at the Mohammed VI university hospital in Marrakech. The support of the investigation was an individual, and a strictly anonymous questionnaire containing the French version validated by the questionnaire of Leymann entitled Leymann Inventory of Psychological Terror; sociodemographic, mental health, and professional data were also collected. Results: In our study, the prevalence of moral harassment was 27.5%, according to Leymann's criteria (exposure to at least one situation, at least once a week for at least six months). Moral violence targets were between 25 to 35 years old (76%) and less than five years seniority (55%). The victims were represented mainly by residents (65.5%) and interns (33%). There was no correlation between sex and exposure to psychological violence (p=0,36). The supervisor was the main harasser (80%). Anxiety, depression, and symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder had been the most observed consequences on the mental health of victims. Conclusion: Moral harassment at work seems, by its prevalence, to invade the hospital environment, and young doctors constitute a particular target. Exposure to this phenomenon has a negative impact on an individual's mental health. Our results are alarming enough to prompt us to continue investigating and put in place recommendations to limit and prevent the consequences.

Utilizing local materials is a strategic step in optimizing concrete production in East Kalimantan. There's an example supply of petangis stone and semboja sand aggregates. Apart from that, using various wastes, including plastic waste, in concrete production is also a current issue. This study aims to investigate the potential substitution of fine aggregates with PET and combine them with local materials, to understand their impact on the bending strength of concrete.  The study tested concrete bending strength using 15x15x60 cm blocks with PET plastic substitutions at 0.30%, 0.45%, and 0.60% of sand weight, comparing them with PET-free concrete. The research results show that adding 0.30 and 0.45% PET plastic bottles causes a decrease in the flexural strength of concrete. This is related to the influence of changes in the composition of the concrete mix, including factors such as uneven aggregate distribution and less-than-optimal material binding. Flexural strength increases at a percentage of 0.60% by 3.7% or 3.3 MPa and shows better results than normal concrete. So the PET percentage can be used as a recommendation in making concrete using local materials such as petangis stone aggregate and semboja sand.

Published: May 2024

In the development of waste management, piles of rubbish can produce liquid waste called leachate. Leachate from landfills can affect human health and pollute the environment and aquatic biota because leachate contains various chemical compounds and many pathogenic bacteria. To minimize the impact of landfill waste on the surrounding environment, the waste is covered with material that can isolate it from the surrounding environment. This research aims to determine the optimal level of cementation solution addition to waste sludge as temporary landfill cover using the MICP method. The research results reveal that the sample permeability meets the criteria for a temporary cover landfill, where the permeability specification limits are between 10-4 to 10-5 cm/s. The research revealed that 0.25M cementation solution and Bacillus Subtilis bacteria had the lowest permeability. Soil without cementation solution has a permeability coefficient value of 5.04×10-4 cm/s, and decreases to 6.67×10-5 cm/s with a cementation solution concentration of 0.25M over a 28-day peram period. Variations in the 0.25M cementation solution showed its ability to reduce soil permeability by up to 86.7%. Permeability has decreased, which means the soil pores are getting smaller. Thus, this addition can reduce soil permeability and minimize the possibility of environmental damage by leachate.

Oil tank buildings are designed to be earthquake-resistant throughout their lifetime. The foundation of the 3000 bbl petroleum storage tank in Penukal Abab Lematang Ilir (PALI) Regency has been designed using previous seismic standards. This encourages the importance of evaluating foundation resilience against the latest standards because the latest standards show an increase in the Peak Ground Acceleration value. This research aims to determine the Safety Factor (FK) and settlement of the existing foundation of a 3000 bbl petroleum storage tank at the Collecting Station in PALI Regency using earthquake parameters in 2022. A quantitative approach was carried out using finite element and analytical analysis. Steel tank structure design, soil investigation, loads, earthquake parameters, and existing foundation design are used. FK and settlement results will be evaluated based on API 650 and SNI 8604:2017 requirements. The analytical and finite element research results show that the FK value meets the requirements. However, the FK value obtained tends to be too large compared to the requirements. Therefore, it is recommended to design a foundation size smaller than the existing foundation as an efficiency measure. Apart from that, the settlement results at the end of the service life (50th year) show that it is still within the settlement limit permitted by API 650. The research results have confirmed that the existing foundation can withstand earthquakes based on earthquake parameters in 2022. So, these results can be used to develop tank foundation designs for earthquake-safe oil storage in similar locations.

Published: May 2024

The Bodor River is an important source of rice irrigation because most of the population works in the agricultural sector. The slopes of the Bodor River have experienced landslides, causing a major negative impact on the community. Many studies state that soil type, consistency, and friction angle influence slope failure. However, the relationship between soil characteristics and landslides on slopes, especially on the Bodor River, has not been studied. This research aims to identify soil characteristics and their influence on landslides on the slopes of the Bodor River, along with recommendations for improvement. The soil was taken after a landslide occurred at a depth of 80 cm for a sieve gradation test, Atterberg limit test, direct shear test, and slope stability analysis using the Cullman method. The research results show that the SW-SM soil type on the slopes of the Bodor River is highly vulnerable to landslides. A steep slope of 50° and a low soil friction angle between 1.38 and 14.11 have less than one safety factor. Changes in soil conditions, such as increased water content, contribute to a higher risk of landslides. Therefore, strengthening the slope is necessary, with the recommendation to increase the slope to 34.5° so that the slope safety factor increases by 73%. The results of this research provide an overview of the relationship between geotechnical soil parameters that influence slope failure in river areas and recommendations for slope improvement to prevent future collapse.

Plates have an important function in supporting the structural load above them. One important aspect of plate design is the design of the openings or holes. These openings can be needed for various purposes, such as pipe installation, ventilation, and ducts. If the plate openings are not designed carefully, it will cause serious problems such as excessive deflection. This increases the risk of structural accidents and ultimately threatens the safety of building users. This study aims to determine the effect of plates with different types of supports and opening models with 3D modeling. Quantitative descriptive research using the finite element method was used. There are 16 models with different support types (simply and fixed) and opening models (rectangular, square and circular). From the modeling, the deformation and stress values that occur will be obtained. Comparative analysis is carried out to obtain the best support and opening types. The research results show that the increase in stress concentration tends to be higher in rectangular openings, while in square and circular openings, it is smaller than in plates without openings. Circular shapes tend to have high deformation values. Meanwhile, the square shape has the smallest value compared to all models. Simply support has greater stress in rectangular and circular openings. 4-sided fixed support is the best choice because it has the smallest stress and deformation values. Through these results, it is possible to optimize the design of appropriate types of supports and openings to reduce excess stress and improve overall structural performance.

Geographically Weighted Logistic Regression (GWLR) model is a local model of the logistic regression model applied to spatial data. Parameter estimation is performed at each observation location using spatial weighting. The spatial weighting is calculated by using an adaptive tricube function and bandwidth optimum was obtained based on Generalized Cross Validation (GCV) criteria. The purpose of this study was to obtain a GWLR model on the water pollution indicator Dissolve Oxygen (DO) in Mahakam River in East Kalimantan Province and to find factors affecting the probability of the Mahakam River water was not polluted based on DO indicator. The research data is secondary obtained from Environmental Department of East Kalimantan.  The parameter estimation method was Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE). The research result showed that the closed form of ML estimator could not be found analytically and it can be approximed by using Newton-Raphson iterative methods. Based on the result of partial hypothesis test, the factors influencing the probability of the Mahakam River water was not polluted is different for every observation location. They were phosphate consentration, total dissolved solid and nitrite consentration. The factor influencing globally was total dissolved solid.

Currently, Senior High School and Madrasah Aliyah have implemented student specialization. The specialization includes Natural Science, Social Science and Language. There are several criteria for determining interest in Senior High School and Madrasah Aliyah which include academic scores, student interests and IQ. The multinomial logistic regression model is used to examine these factors because the dependent variable has more than 2 categories. Bayes method is used to estimate the parameters of the multinomial logistic regression. The Bayesian method is a parameter estimation technique that combines the likelihood and prior distribution function. The estimation with the Bayesian method was solved using Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulation (MCMC) with the Gibbs Sampler algorithm. The data used were new students at MAN 2 Samarinda on 2018/2019 with the results of interest namely Natural Science, Social Science and Language. Independent variables were used, namely the score of the Junior High School in subjects Natural Science, Social Science, Language and the rate of National Test. The results of modeling and analysis showed that the factors that significantly influenced were the score of the junior high school in the subject of Natural Science and the rate of National Test. The classification accuracy of the model was 63,10%.

Insurance is an agreement between two parties, where one party is obliged to pay and the other party has the obligation to provide compensation to the premium payer if something happens to the party in accordance with the agreement that has been made. The main problem faced by insurance companies is that the fees paid through premiums are not sufficient to finance compensation payments at the beginning of the policys, To overcome the shortage of costs the insurance company must have a reserve fund called a premium reserve. The purpose of this study was to determine the reserve for term, endowment and whole life insurance premiums using the Fackler method. The variables used in this study are the customer's age, gender, payment term, interest rate and the sum insured. In this study, premium reserves were calculated for participants aged 30 years, men and women, with a payment term of 30 years, an interest rate of 6.75%, and an insurance value of Rp. 100,000,000. Based on the calculation results, the reserve value of term life insurance premium for customers with 30 years of age and the insurance period of 30 years increases at the beginning of the year to the 21st year, after which it decreases until the reserve at the end of the 30th year, the value of the lifetime insurance premium reserve. life for customers with 30 years of age always increases from the beginning of the year to the last year where the payment for male customers is Rp. 93,176,962 and women in the amount of Rp. 93,296,217,156250. The reserve value of dual-purpose life insurance premiums for customers with 30 years of age and insurance period of 30 years always increases from the beginning of the year to the end of the year of payment of Rp. 100,000,000. The large difference in premium reserves for men and women is due to the higher chance of life for women than men.

Double Exponential Smoothing Holt (DES Holt) is a method that can be used when the data pattern shows a trend pattern. Determination of smoothing parameters usually uses trial and error, but this method still has inefficient results to get the best accuracy. One method that can be used to determine the smoothing parameters value is the golden section method. The application of the DES Holt and golden section methods will be carried out to predict the Exchange Rate of Farmers Subsector Livestock (ERFSL) of East Kalimantan Province. The purpose of this study was to obtain forecasting results and the level of accuracy of the ERFSL of East Kalimantan Province for the period January, February, and March 2020 using the DES Holt methods with the golden section smoothing parameter optimization method.

Discipline assessment of employee performance is one of the factors to improve the situation of the quality of human resources. Monitoring and assessment of employee discipline must be carried out continuously as some of the characteristics of management that have gone well as a benchmark for considering the targets that have been set. The K-Means method and the Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) method are non-hierarchical cluster methods. Both methods attempt to partition data into one or more clusters, so that data with the same characteristics are grouped into the same cluster or groups and data with different characteristics are grouped into other groups. This study discusses the comparison of the K-Means method and the Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) method in analyzing employee performance at PT. Cemara Khatulistiwa Persada Bontang, where groups of employees with high, medium, and low levels of employee performance will be determined based on the clustering results of the two methods and determine the best method. The grouping of data for the two methods was obtained from employee attendance data in 2020. Based on the results, it was found that clustering using the K-Means method in the first cluster (low performance level) had 23 employees, the second cluster (medium performance level) had 27 employees, and cluster the third (high performance level) there are 30 employees. Then based on the results of clustering using the FCM method in the first cluster (medium performance level) there are 26 employees, the second cluster (high performance level) there are 31 employees, and the third cluster (low performance level) there are 23 employees. Based on the results of the standard deviation ratio, it was obtained that the K-Means method with a value of 2.4944 was better than the FCM method with a value of 2.7323 in clustering employee performance at PT. Cemara Khatulistiwa Persada.
