Authors: Putra Made sukma , Lilik Djuari  , Rina Yudiwati
Published: July 2022

The incidence of obesity in the world has increased recently and doubled from 1980 to 2014. Obesity can increase the risk of many diseases. Medical students are a vulnerable group affected by obesity because of stressful conditions that can increase the incidence of obesity. This analytical research uses a cross sectional method approach using primary data. The populations in this study were medical students at the Faculty of Medicine, Airlangga University. In this study, 300 samples were taken from first-fifth semester students. The independent variables that will be studied in this study are Gender, physical activity, family obesity history, and consumption of fruit or vegetables. The dependent variable in this study is nutritional status. Based on this study found a significant association between gender, family history of obesity, eating of fruits or vegetables to nutritional status. Still, there is no significant association between physical activity on the nutritional group of medical students. Three variables in this research correlated with the nutritional status of medical education students at the Faculty of Medicine, Airlangga University, Surabaya, which are gender, family obesity history, and consumption of fruit or vegetables. From this research, it was found that the incidence of over-nutrition was still high among medical education students and there was still a lack of awareness among students to exercise and consume fruit or vegetables in their meals.

Authors: Banal Christian L. , Ortega-Dela Cruz Ruth A.
Published: July 2022

This case study used a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods to determine the resilience of private school teachers in facing workload adversities during the COVID-19 pandemic in Academic Year 2020-2021. It also analysed how the teaching workload adversities affect the teachers’ teaching performance in terms of assigned classes and school-related activities, and teacher well-being in terms of teaching activities, non-teaching activities, and well-being. Resilience was determined using the Adversity Response Profile (ARP) developed by Dr. Paul Stoltz, the proponent of Adversity Quotient. Findings showed that the mean of respondents’ ARP is Below Average. This in addition to heavy and challenging teaching workloads has negative impacts on the teachers’ teaching performance and well-being. The study provides implications not only to its subjects but to all stakeholders of an educational institution. It signifies the importance of resilience or the ability to bounce back from adversities in life. Now that the COVID-19 pandemic persists, having resilience is a must especially for teachers. Thus, it calls for a more administrative support by providing the ways and means to help develop and strengthen the teachers’ resilience especially in this time of pandemic.
The Politics of Vaccine Diplomacy and Sino-Indonesian Relations
Authors: Yuliantoro Nur Rachmat
Published: July 2022

Since the beginning of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has shattered many aspects of human life worldwide. Many believed China was theorigin of the coronavirus that sparked the pandemic. While dealing with the virus domestically, China has also pleaded to help many countries overcome the impact of the pandemic. Within this context, China runs the so-called vaccine diplomacy: providing Chinese-made vaccines to countries in need, including Indonesia. This article argues that although vaccine diplomacy can be seen as evidence of China’s soft power, it is also carried out to serve China’s national interests. Vaccine diplomacy to Indonesia is to demonstrate China’s goodwill and friendship. It is also to help Indonesia recover its economy with the support of Chinese investment and to promote its inﬂuence in the region within the context of great power rivalry with the United States.
Sejak awal tahun 2020, pandemi COVID-19 telah menghancurkan banyak aspek kehidupan manusia di seluruh dunia. Banyak yangpercaya Cina adalah asal mula virus Corona yang memicu pandemi. Sembari menangani virus di dalam negeri, Cina juga telah membantubanyak negara mengatasi dampak pandemi tersebut. Sebagai kekuatan besar yang bertanggung jawab, China menjalankan apa yang disebut diplomasi vaksin: menyediakan vaksin buatan China ke negara-negara yang membutuhkan, termasuk Indonesia. Artikel ini berpendapat bahwa meskipun diplomasi vaksin dapat dilihat sebagai bukti soft power China, ia juga dilakukan untuk melayani kepentingan nasional China. Diplomasi vaksin ke Indonesia ditujukan untuk memperlihatkan itikad baik dan persahabatan Cina. Ia juga dimaksudkan untuk membantu Indonesia memperbaiki ekonominya dengan dukungan investasi Cina serta memajukan pengaruhnya di kawasan dalam konteks persaingan kekuatan besar dengan Amerika Serikat.
Is the Ambition Hypothesis Exist on China's Defense Spending?
Authors: Kennedy Posma Sariguna Johnson
Published: July 2022

Since China conducted the economic reform in 1987, it has advanced a leap in its economy, technology, research, and military capabilities, surpassing many countries globally, even to have matched the United States. This study aims to discover whether there has been an ambition hypothesis in China when the country increased its defense since carrying out the reforms. This study adopts a quantitative analysis method that builds two simultaneous regression structural equation models: economic growth and military equation. The study results then indicate that China’s alleged motivation for ambition in determining the defense budget is met, where economic growth and taxes positively affect the military budget. The fulfillment of the hypothesis ambition in China is in stark contrast to the case of the United States, where economic growth and taxes negatively impact the size of the country’s military budget. In other words, unlike China, the United States increased its military budget when its economic growth got disrupted. For instance, during the trade war between the United States and China in March 2018, the United States eventually increased its military strength though its economy was hampered.
Keywords: Ambition Hypothesis, Defense Spending, Military Strength, China-United States Rivalry, Trade War.
 
Sejak melakukan reformasi ekonomi pada tahun 1987, Tiongkok telah mengalami lompatan kapabilitas ekonomi, teknologi, penelitian, dan militer hingga melampaui banyak negara secara global dan bahkan hampir menyamai Amerika Serikat. Tujuan dari penelitian ini lantas adalah untuk mengetahui apakah terdapat hipotesis ambisi di Tiongkok ketika meningkatkan pertahanannya sejak adanya reformasi. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah analisis kuantitatif dengan membangun dua model persamaan struktural, yaitu persamaan pertumbuhan ekonomi dan persamaan militer, yang akan diregresi secara simultan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dugaan motivasi ambisi Cina terpenuhi dalam penentuan anggaran pertahanannya, dimana pertumbuhan ekonomi dan pajak berpengaruh positif terhadap besaran anggaran militer. Pemenuhan hipotesis ambisi di Tiongkok berbanding terbalik dengan kasusu Amerika Serikat yang pertumbuhan ekonomi dan pajaknya justru berdampak negatif pada besaran anggaran militernya. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa Amerika Serikat akan meningkatkan anggaran militernya ketika pertumbuhan ekonominya terganggu. Contohnya, ketika Perang Dagang dengan Tiongkok pada Maret 2018 lalu, Amerika Serikat justru meningkatkan kekuatan militernya walau perekonomiannya sedang terganggu.

Daily atrial fibrillation issues: the view-point of a practicing surgeon
Authors: Bilfinger Thomas V.
Published: July 2022

Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is encountered daily by the cardiac surgeon. How to deal with a patient with pre existing AF who is on anticoagulation taking into account urgency, type of anticoagulation and procedure planned are some of the daily considerations encountered. When to start anticoagulation and other pharmacotherapy after the occurrence of post-op atrial fibrillation and the use of ablative therapies in view of bleeding and other complications are daily judgement calls made by surgeons. Whom to offer combined interventions are decisions the surgeon faces daily. While guidelines help in broad strokes, there is little help for individual situations which is due to structural problems and absence of universal definitions resulting in the lack of granular data needed for practical individualized daily decision making.

Published: July 2022

Dinamika perekonomian menyebabkan adanya perubahan harga dalam perdagangan. Kegiatan penghitungan perubahan harga (penghitungan inflasi) secara menyeluruh menjadi penting dalam kegiatan pengendalian ekonomi daerah, supaya kesejahteraan masyarakat tetap merata di seluruh kabupaten/kota. Saat ini, kabupaten dan kota yang belum termasuk dalam proses dan kegiatan penghitungan inflasi, melakukan pengamatan tingkat harga berdasarkan pada kota inflasi terdekat. Tentu diperlukan suatu kajian sebagai bahan masukan dalam penentuan kota penghitung inflasi yang akan datang, sekaligus untuk menentukan kota inflasi acuan, supaya pengendalian harga menjadi lebih presisi dengan mempertimbangkan karakteristik kewilayahan. Namun, kajian mengenai penentuan kota penghitung inflasi belum banyak dilakukan.  Dengan data statistik resmi BPS Provinsi Kalimantan Selatan, penelitian ini menggunakan desain penelitian kuantitatif untuk menyusun klaster kabupaten/kota acuan penghitungan inflasi. Pengelompokkan ini penting untuk memetakan kembali Kabupaten/Kota di Kalimantan Selatan berdasarkan kemiripan variabel-variabel makro yang mempengaruhi tingkat harga dengan mengacu pada tiga kota penghitung inflasi yang telah ada (Banjarmasin, Tanjung, dan Kotabaru). Analisis penelitian ini menggunakan metode Wardâ€™s Agglomerative Hierarchical Clustering dengan visualisasi dendrogram (dendrogram hierarchical clustering). Berdasarkan hasil analisis klaster metode hirarki, terdapat tiga klaster yaitu wilayah kota (dan sekitarnya), wilayah pertambangan (dan sekitarnya), dan wilayah tertinggal. Juga, dalam kurun waktu tahun 2010 sampai tahun 2020, terjadi dinamika pergeseran klaster.

Mathematical modelling of granulation process in fluidised bed (overview of models)
Authors: Korniyenko Bogdan , Nesteruk Andrii
Published: July 2022

One of the most common methods of making mineral fertilizers is granulation. Fertilizers in the form of granules have a number of advantages over conventional fertilizers in the form of powder or liquid, namely, ease of transportation, well absorbed and less susceptible to weathering from the soil, convenient to use. To obtain solid particles from liquid starting material such as solutions, emulsions or suspensions, the following processes are used: crystallization, granulation, spray drying. Depending on the focus of the study, the fluidized bed granulation process can be modeled at different levels of abstraction. The dynamics of individual particles is modeled on a microscopic scale. The interaction of a particle with a liquid, equipment or other particles is considered. The next rougher level of abstraction is the mesoscale. Here the particles are divided into classes according to their characteristics. It is assumed that the particles of the class have the same properties and dynamics. On a macroscopic scale, the roughest level of approximation, attention is focused on the integral behavior of the whole set of particles. As a result, the selected characteristic values ​​describe the state of the particle layer. There are different approaches to modeling for each scale. It is proposed to describe the microscopic scale using the hydrodynamics model, the mesoscale using the balance model, and the macroscopic scale using the moments method or the Lagrange-Euler model. A combined balance-hydrodynamics model and a multi-chamber balance model that can be used for the tasks of building information technology for fluidized bed granulation process control technology are also considered.

Published: July 2022

The importance of a properly regulated immune response has been explored through various research-oriented methods. It has proved that having an effective and well-regulated immune response helps prevent many minors and serious diseases. Any kind of dysregulation in the working of the immune system may lead to severe consequences. An autoimmune disorder is one such consequence in which the component of the immune system starts targeting self-cells of the body, treating them as self-antigen producing autoantibodies and immune complexes resulting from the failure of immune responses both at a central and peripheral level. Currently, many autoimmune disorders are prevailing across the world, and new diseases need attention.In this review, we have written about the functions of T cell, LncRNAs and also some interactions between the LncRNAs and miRNAs in the pathogenesis of Multiple sclerosis (MS), Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), Type 1 diabetes (T1D), Rheumatoid arthritis (RA). To find the functions of these autoimmune disorders we have done intensive literature search during this we also found that GAS5 and MALAT are common in MS, SLE, T1D, RA. And finally, we have also mentioned the therapeutic drugs which neutralizes the different cluster of differentiation (CDs) and also suppresses the T cell differentiation in MS, SLE and RA. For T1D therapeutic strategies and various types of insulin are mentioned.

Published: July 2022

Drought is one of the most serious abiotic stressors in the environment, restricting agricultural production by reducing plant growth, development, and productivity. To investigate such a complex and multifaceted stressor and its effects on the plants, a systems biology-based approach is necessitated, entailing the generation of co-expression networks, identification of highly-priority transcription factors (TFs) dynamic mathematical modeling, and computational simulations. Here, we studied a high-resolution drought transcriptome of Arabidopsis. We revealed distinct temporal transcriptional signatures and demonstrated the involvement of specific biological pathways. Generation of a large-scale co-expression network followed by network centrality analyses identified 117 TFs that possess critical properties of hubs, bottlenecks, and high clustering coefficients nodes. Dynamic transcriptional regulatory modeling on integrated TF-target and transcriptome datasets uncovered major transcriptional events during the course of drought stress. Mathematical transcriptional simulations allowed us to ascertain the activation status of major TFs as well as the transcriptional intensity and amplitude of their target genes. Finally, we validated our predictions by providing experimental evidence of gene expression under drought stress for a set of four TFs and their major target genes using qRT-PCR. Taken together, we provided a systems-level perspective on the dynamic transcriptional regulation during drought stress in Arabidopsis and uncovered numerous novel TFs that can potentially be used in future genetic crop engineering programs.

Authors: Kim Sungjun , Cho Mingyu , Im Seyeong , Yun Joongho , Nam Jaekwang
Published: July 2022

The magnetic navigation system (MNS) with gradient and uniform saddle coils is one of the effective systems to manipulate various medical magnetic robot due to its compact structure and uniformity of the magnetic field and field gradient. However, it has limited operating time and large inductance effect due to the high current density and numerous turns of coils, respectively. In this paper, we propose an optimization methodology of the MNS considering the current density and inductance of the coils. We introduce objective functions, constraints, and design variables of the MNS. Then, the MNS was designed by an optimization algorithm. The constructed MNS was compared with the conventional MNS, and it could generate 22 % stronger magnetic field or field gradient while the maximum three-dimensional rotating magnetic field was improved by 42 %. We also demonstrated an unclogging performance of a helical robot was improved by 54 % with the constructed MNS.

In comparison with the first year of study, the incidence of diseases of the nervous system increases by 43,8%, diseases of the digestive system – 41,7%, diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue – 29,5%, diseases of the eye and its accessory apparatus – 13,4% and for diseases of the genitourinary system - by 12,8%. In adolescents studying in different working conditions, there is a repeated frequency of complaints of a different nature. Among the trainees of the oil and gas production operator and carpenter, a high frequency of complaints was noted from the urinary system, skin and allergic reactions; carpet weaver - from the nervous, musculoskeletal system, skin and vision; in adolescent seamstresses - from the nervous, cardiovascular system with frequent allergic reactions; adolescents who are trained as chefs have a higher prevalence of complaints related to the cardiovascular system and allergic reactions. Conclusion. Despite the short contact of students with various production factors during labor training, unfavorable occupational and production risk factors can cause disruption of the regulatory mechanisms of physiological adaptation in adolescents.

The article investigates models and methods of complex control of power consumption modes. It is shown that the power shortage during peak hours makes it difficult to maintain a balance between generation and consumption capacity, which led to the need to impose restrictions on the electrical load of industrial consumers and the development of methods and tools to control power consumption. Moreover, the tasks of controlling the modes of active power consumption and reactive power compensation are closely related. It is shown that the following methods of power consumption management are currently known: instantaneous rate; at the ideal rate; management on the forecast value; control with the use of average power on a moving time interval ("moving window" method). Optimal control of power consumption system modes and reactive power modes for the relevant control period is based on the use of operational forecasting methods. Studies have shown that a positive role in improving the efficiency of optimization of power consumption modes can play and influencing its level of voltage control in the power supply system. In this regard, it is advisable to move to a comprehensive solution to the problem of power management, both through the management of consumers - regulators, and the impact on the voltage regimes of the power supply system. Static characteristics of changes in active and reactive powers from voltage changes in the power supply system are given. Solving the problem of obtaining static characteristics is possible as a result of active experiments; or based on the integration of static characteristics of individual electrical receivers. Focus on the second way is advisable with a limited number of different types of electrical receivers. However, in any case, it is necessary to determine the static characteristics of individual large consumers - regulators, disabling or enabling which can significantly affect the integrated static characteristics of the power supply. An approach to integrated management of power consumption modes is proposed, which consists in the fact that from the beginning of the controlled interval periodically formed real values of active and reactive electricity consumption, as well as voltage values at the controlled point of the network. Then the forecast of active and reactive energy consumption to the end of the controlled interval and the forecast of the average voltage level is determined, the deviation between the forecast and set power consumption is determined and, if the forecast value of power consumption exceeds the set. At the same time determine the possible changes in reactive power and, if necessary, control the capacitor banks. Experimental studies of the considered models are carried out. The structural scheme of the system of complex control and management of power consumption modes is given.

In building a village infrastructure, it is necessary to calculate the costs contained in the Budget Plan (RAB) according to the standards set by the government. The RAB provides an overview of the costs required to construct a structure or building. In addition, from the calculation of the RAB, it can also be seen that the building material requirements, manpower, and the schedule needed to complete the project. The purpose of this technical guidance is to increase the role and understanding of village officers and youth organizations in making RAB. Technical guidance is carried out by providing explanations and technical assistance directly to partners in making the RAB for the physical infrastructure project for the concrete pavement access to the mosque. The results of the technical guidance showed that there was an increase in the understanding of partners in making RAB by 70%. In addition, 50% of partners believe that they can independently make RAB for a similar project. Armed with this understanding, it is hoped that in the future partners can play a greater role in the village's physical development process starting at the planning, construction, and supervision stages of the project.

This study aims to analyze (1) Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) profile of IPA teachers in teaching science in terms of PCK component in pentagon model (2) constraint of PCK science teacher in teaching science. The PCK component consists of five components including: Component K1 (teaching orientation), K2 (knowledge of Curriculum), K3 (knowledge of students), K4 (knowledge of learning strategy) and K5 (knowledge of assessment). The research is a qualitative with phenomenology approach. The subject of the research was a science teacher at SMPN 4 Sidoarjo. Data collection techniques in this study using documentation, observation and interviews. Data analysis phase using Miles and Huberman model. Test the validity of the data used triangulation technique. Based on the research results revealed PCK teacher profile: K1 component is science learning oriented to develop the cognitive, psychomotor and affective aspects of students by applying constructivism learning theory, K2 component that is understanding the curriculum 2013 and apply it to learning but conducted development on objectives, content and learning materials, K3 component: identify that students do not experience misconception and in managing the classroom asking the students who have the advantage to help other students, K4 component is applying discovery learning model with scientific approach 5M (observing, asking, collecting data, associating and creating), K5 component is the assessment of the students covering 3 aspects (cognitive, affective and psychomotor) with assessment methods of quetion and observation, and teachers do not experience PCK constraints in teaching Water Pollution Material. In the next research is expected to reveal three other teacher competencies.

The study determined the effectiveness of guided and open inquiry instructional strategies on the science process skills of students taught Biology in senior secondary schools in Osun State, Nigeria. It also compared the self-efficacy of students taught Biology using guided inquiry with those taught Biology using open inquiry instructional strategies in senior secondary school in Osun State. The goal was to provide empirical information on the effectiveness of guided and open inquiry strategies on students’ learning outcome in Biology. The study adopted the non-equivalent pretest posttest quasi-experimental research design. Two research instruments were used to collect data for the study namely, (i) Biology Process Skills Observation checklist (BPSOC) and (ii) Self-efficacy Rating Scale (SeRS). Data collected were analyzed using appropriate inferential statistics of analysis of Covariance. The results showed that there was no significant difference in the science process skills of Biology students exposed to Open Inquiry and those exposed to guided inquiry strategy (F= 0.785, p>0.05). The results also showed that a significant difference existed in the self-efficacy of students taught using Guided Inquiry and Open Inquiry strategies (F = 11.64, p < 0.05) as those exposed to Open Inquiry had the better self-efficacy score than the other groups as shown in the mean difference between open and guided inquiry strategies. The study concluded that Open inquiry strategy was more effective in improving the self-efficacy of the respondents but was not effective in improving the science process skills of respondents in the study area.
