Published: December 2023

SD Kartika X-3 stands out among elementary schools in West Bandung due to its exceptional non-academic achievements, which is why the school mandates student participation in extracurricular activities. However, managing a large number of extracurricular members poses challenges for the school. These issues encompass the registration process, reporting of values, data retrieval, and communication regarding extracurricular activities. To address these challenges, the authors have developed an Extracurricular Management Information System. Data collection methods employed include observation, interviews, and documentation, with the system development based on the prototype methodology. System analysis involves tools like Flowmap and evaluation tables, while system design employs UML diagrams, such as Use Case Diagrams, Activity Diagrams, Sequence Diagrams, and Class Diagrams, in addition to utilizing Balsamiq for interface design, and MySQL for database design. System testing is conducted using the BlackBox approach. The Extracurricular Management Information System streamlines extracurricular data management, prevents paper accumulation, and facilitates the generation of attendance reports.

Published: December 2023

The utilization of information technology has become a positive trend. Its usefulness is not only as a medium of information or concerning business, but information technology has also been used by agencies or organizations. An agency or organization has begun to use technology as a tool that can help management in making a decision where the decision is very important to do. The CEMPOR Dispora Bandung City organization when selecting trainees still uses a manual method by filling in the criteria filled in by the committee. This method only relies on assessments made in the field. A recommendation system must be created to assist the Cempor Dispora committee in determining the selected trainees for the next training session in a more systematic and structured manner. This will help the company make decisions. This research recommendation system selects trainees using the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method to evaluate the accuracy of the method. Calculating the number of participants' average scores for this training activity and speeding up the participant selection process are the capabilities of this web-based trainee selection recommendation system. As a result of Confusion Matrix Testing, the system has an accuracy of 95.00%.

Information Systems have become a crucial component in the digital era of today's world. The use of information systems is widely employed in government agencies to facilitate work processes and provide the best services. The Directorate of Metrology, in its effort to enhance services, has developed a new information system called the Legal Metrology Calibration and Recalibration Management Information System (SIMPEL). However, in its implementation at the Integrated Trade Services Unit IV (UPTP IV), numerous challenges have been identified that result in a decrease in Non-TaX State Revenue and an increase in the number of complaints. PNBP serves as a performance indicator for UPTP IV services. Therefore, an evaluation study of SIMPEL is needed to increase the PNBP figures. Based on several references, the variables of effectiveness and technical capability are considered for evaluating SIMPEL. The research methodology employed is the multiple linear regression method. The research findings indicate that partially, from the customer perspective, the evaluation of effectiveness significantly affects the performance of UPTP IV services. Partially, from the employee perspective, the evaluation of technical capability significantly influences the performance of UPTP IV services. Simultaneously, the evaluation of effectiveness and technical capability significantly affects the performance of UPTP IV services.

Authors: Azi Aditya Bayu , Nugroho Arif , Handoko Pryo
Published: December 2023

Transportation refers to the act of relocating or transferring an object from one location to another, with the intention of enhancing its utility or enabling its application for specific purposes in the new destination. Public transportation refers to a form of mass transportation that provides passenger services through a collective travel system. This method of transportation is accessible to the general public, operates on predetermined routes, and requires payment for each individual journey. Public transportation operates on a rental or payment system. The primary function of public transportation is to cater to the mobility needs and interests of the community. Survey research encompasses the examination of both extensive and limited populations through the collection of data from representative samples. Its primary objective is to ascertain the relative prevalence, distribution, and interrelationship of variables. In summary, it may be concluded that both routes did not demonstrate financial feasibility within the initial two-year period, considering a discount rate of 12.5%. While the internal rate of return (IRR) study suggests the possibility of long-term profitability, it is crucial to thoroughly evaluate the short-term risks and losses that are brought to light by the benefit-cost ratio (BCR) and net present value (NPV) calculations. When making decisions on the operation of this route, it is necessary to carefully analyze several elements, such as market conditions, competition, and prevailing economic circumstances. Prior to proceeding with or ceasing route operations, it is imperative to conduct a comprehensive study and engage in strategic planning that aligns with DAMRI's commercial objectives.

The Many Worlds of Trauma: An Interdisciplinary Perspective
Authors: Calinescu Amalia
Published: December 2023

The article presents a multidimensional analysis of trauma. The socio-physiological approach in the first part sets the stage for underlining the role of integrative psychotherapy in addressing traumatic wounds. Drawing from different fields, the study then provides Kazuo Ishiguro's psychoanalytic approach to understanding the relationship between trauma and human existence, with a particular focus on the interplay between memory, identity and chronic emotional disturbances. The study thus explores how fiction can serve as a therapeutic tool, giving voice to characters who either embark on healing journeys or try to conceal their unhealed wounds within self-contained worlds. Through existential parables, therapeutic fiction can delve into the psychological implications of traumas, offering the possibility of acceptance, or even healing, despite the immutable nature of the past. Ultimately, this interdisciplinary analysis aims to deepen one’s understanding of trauma's impact on individuals and society while it highlights the potential for healing and growth in real life through the worlds of fiction.

O PROTAGONISMO JUVENIL EM CONTEXTOS EDUCACIONAIS
Authors: Corrêa Shirlei de Souza , Santos João Derli de Souza , Simão Vera Lúcia
Published: December 2023

A juventude vem demarcando um campo de mudanças, de lutas e de conquistas na sociedade. Tais mudanças vêm favorecendo a quebra de alguns paradigmas e, ainda, instalando outros. O próprio conceito de juventude que a sociedade contemporânea vem adotando, aponta um olhar além das questões biológicas, se ocupando, sobretudo, com o jovem que assume o desafio de agir, interagir e influenciar as estruturas existentes. Essa questão, a do protagonismo juvenil, quando discutida no contexto escolar, pode ganhar espaço e promover a ampla participação do jovem como verdadeiro ator da dinâmica escolar. Com o objetivo de perceber como os profissionais visualizam esta questão no interior das escolas, esta pesquisa, sob a metodologia do grupo focal, percebeu que estes movimentos são marcados mais pelas exigências legais - instituídas por documentos ou ações que são impostas às unidades escolares, do que pelos desejos e necessidades dos próprios jovens.
Palavras-chave: Protagonismo escolar. Juventude. Contexto escolar.
 
ABSTRACT
The youth has been demarcating a field of changes, fights and achievements in society. Such changes have been favoring the breaking of some paradigms and also installing others. The very concept of youth that contemporary society has been adopting points to a look beyond biological issues, focusing, above all, on young people who take on the challenge of acting, interacting and influencing existing structures. The issue of youth protagonism, when discussed in the school context, can gain space and promote the broad participation of young people as true actors in school dynamics. With the aim of understanding how professionals see this issue within schools, this research, using the focus group methodology, realized that these movements are marked more by legal requirements - established by documents or actions that are imposed on school units, rather than by the desires and needs of young people themselves.
Keywords: School protagonism. Youth. School context.

Atheist Therapy: Radical Embodiment in Early Modern Medical Materialism
Authors: Wolfe Charles
Published: December 2023

Materialism as a doctrine is, of course, a part of the history of philosophy, even if it was often a polemical construct, and it took until the 18th century for philosophers to be willing to call themselves materialists. Difficulties also have been pointed out in terms of “continuity,” i.e., does what Democritus, Lucretius, Hobbes and Diderot have to say about matter, the body and the soul all belong in one discursive and conceptual frame? Interestingly, materialism is also a classic figure in the history of medicine, often intersecting with philosophical considerations. Notably, the question of body-soul relations. This is apparent in Galen’s treatise on body and soul and then much more massively in the early modern period (with reference to Galen, but also Lucretius, and Aristotelian naturalism). In the following essay I reflect on the exact nature of early modern medical materialism, its philosophical status and contribution.

Authors: Makinde Veronica
Published: December 2023

The study investigated how many university students in private, state, and federal institutions abuse chemical substances. It also compared the three types of institution to know where abuse of substances is more prevalent. The population for the study were all university undergraduates from Ekiti State. The sample is made up of 450 respondents’ selected using simple randomization and purposive sampling technique with 115 participants from private institutions, 165 from state owned institutions and 170 participants from federal institutions. A Google Form questionnaire tagged Prevalence of Substance Abuse Scale (PSAS) was created, validated and used for data collection. Results; No significant difference could be determined in terms of gender on the prevalence of substance abuse among undergraduate students (F(1, 448) = 0.581, p <.05). A significant difference was detected in terms of age (F (3, 447) = 0.088, p < .05). It revealed a non-significant effect on the prevalence of substance abuse among undergraduates across different universities (private, state, and federal) (F(2, 447) = 0.084, p < 0.05).
It was suggested that universities should have an active counselling centre with trained counsellors to help people who struggle with substance abuse. Counsellors should work with the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) to hold events like awareness campaigns, seminars, and workshops to enlighten students about the negative effects of substance abuse.

Published: December 2023

O estudo observou mudanças na imagem corporal ao longo do tempo, especialmente entre adolescentes, influenciando a busca por corpos perfeitos e levando a escolhas por dietas restritivas. No entanto, uma abordagem mais flexível mostrou-se benéfica, promovendo comportamentos e resultados saudáveis e mantendo uma relação positiva com a comida. A pressão social por um corpo perfeito afetou a saúde mental, desequilibrando a relação das pessoas com a comida. A pesquisa comparativa entre dietas restritivas e flexíveis destacou os riscos do emagrecimento rápido e a realidade dos adolescentes em relação à comida, com foco em distorções de imagem, ressaltou que dietas restritivas não são ideais para a saúde global. A revisão bibliográfica abrangeu artigos científicos nacionais e internacionais de 1981 a 2023, utilizando diversas fontes, como BIREME, SciELO, CAPES, Google Scholar, livros, sites e PubMed. A coleta de dados ocorreu de março a novembro, com palavras-chave como "restrição alimentar", "dieta restrita", "dieta consciente", "seletividade com comida", "dietas da moda". Concluiu-se que dietas flexíveis contribuem para a saúde e o bem-estar, enquanto dietas restritivas podem causar traumas e medos alimentares. Restrições extremas muitas vezes resultam em emoções negativas, prejudicando a perda de peso saudável e uma relação positiva com a comida. A abordagem flexível, enfatizando equilíbrio, aspectos sociais e bem-estar, é considerada mais sustentável a longo prazo.

Published: December 2023

Este trabalho objetivou avaliar clinica-epidemiologicamente pacientes entre 1 e 13 anos diagnosticados com a Síndrome de Guillain-Barré (SGB) em um hospital universitário entre janeiro de 2019 e junho de 2023. Foi realizado um estudo retrospectivo de uma série de casos por meio da análise de prontuários. Encontrou-se cinco casos com manifestação clínica típica de SGB: fraqueza e redução de reflexos tendinosos de caráter progressivo e ascendente, com tempo de evolução variado. Apenas dois casos apresentaram redução de sensibilidade associada. Em quatro casos foi realizada coleta de líquor, cuja análise foi útil na confirmação do diagnóstico e nos cinco casos realizou-se eletroneuromiografia, que indicou que em um dos casos a doença era da forma desmielinizante e nos demais da forma axonal motora. Analisando a história clínica e sintomas infecciosos, além das provas sorológicas e pesquisas virais disponíveis, foi possível presumir a etiologia de dois casos sendo COVID-19 e gastroenterite prévios. Um caso teve uma correlação temporal com a Vacina Oral de Poliomielite e a vacina para Febre Amarela. Todos os pacientes foram tratados com imunoglobulina a fim de reduzir o tempo de recuperação, com um desfecho positivo em três casos. Um caso evoluiu com parada cardiorrespiratória. Um caso não apresentou melhora com uma dose de imunoglobulina, mas apresentou melhora ao receber uma segunda dose. Concluiu-se que a SGB tem gravidade e evolução variada, sendo imprescindível o reconhecimento precoce dos sintomas e agilidade no diagnóstico, de forma a iniciar o tratamento com celeridade e prevenir maiores sequelas.

A vitamina D, além de ter o papel nutricional, tem como principal função, regular o metabolismo ósseo. Estudos mostram que a falta de vitamina D em proporções epidêmicas, causam diversos agravos à saúde, principalmente as quedas frequentes em idosos e os principais benefícios favorecidos por ela, os fatores que contribuem para sua deficiência e os meios de prevenções adequados em grupos de risco. Em idosos, é comum a isufiencia de vitamina D, perdendo massa óssea e tendo um grande aumento de quedas e fraturas. As quedas causam morbidade e mortalidade em idosos. É necessário o uso de vitamina D ativa, pois ela melhora a capacidade física em idosos, reduzindo assim, o risco e a incidência de quedas.

A radioterapia pode ser dividida em duas modalidades: a braquiterapia e a teleterapia, sendo a última, a técnica mais difundida. Os equipamentos de teleterapia são capazes de produzir feixes de fótons ou elétrons que saem do equipamento em direção ao paciente posicionado sobre a mesa de tratamento. Para garantir que o campo de irradiação forneça a dose correta e que os feixes produzidos incidam apenas na região de interesse, é necessário a realização de uma série de testes de controle de qualidade, sendo uma parte destes testes executados por meio de equipamentos específicos de dosimetria: um conjunto dosimétrico, além de um simulador (fantoma) cheio de água que simula a interação do feixe com o corpo humano. Depedendo da quantidade de energias que o acelerador linear pode produzir, e considerando que o controle de qualidade deve ser realizado periodicamente sobre cada uma das energias disponíveis no equipamento, o processo todo acaba por se tornar demasiadamente lento e moroso, quando se utiliza um simulador de acionamento manual comparado a um equipamento automatizado. O objetivo deste trabalho foi projetar e construir um equipamento automatizados de baixo custo, baseado em uma plataforma open source (Arduino), com acesso a peças de acessíveis comparáveis aos dispositivos dedicados a controle de qualidade em radioterapia disponíveis no mercado. E espera-se ainda, em um trabalho futuro, desenvolver um software que em conjunto com o equipamento, seja capaz de realizar o processo de varredura do feixe de radiação. Trata-se, portanto de uma pesquisa de natureza aplicada.

A engenharia de tecidos é uma promissora área da biotecnologia que envolve a combinação de células, biomateriais e fatores de crescimento para criar estruturas que podem substituir ou regenerar tecidos danificados. A crescente demanda por soluções devido à escassez de órgãos e lesões têm impulsionado abordagens multidisciplinares na criação de biomateriais para esse fim. Portanto, o objetivo do presente trabalho de desenvolver uma revisão de literatura através da análise de artigos sobre a evolução da engenharia de tecidos, suas técnicas e como ela é aplicada na medicina atual apresentou como conclusão que ainda que haja múltiplos desafios dentro da modernização da engenharia tecidual, como a criação de vasos sanguíneos funcionais e questões éticas, com os investimentos realizados em pesquisa e utilização de regulamentações adequadas, a bioengenharia têm revolucionado a medicina regenerativa por meio de técnicas como a impressão 3D, uso de scaffolds e bioimpressões, diminuindo a fila dos transplantes e gerando melhores chances aos pacientes que buscam por cuidados médicos.

O envelhecimento é um fenômeno mundial e uma fase da vida pela qual todo indivíduo passará um dia. Essa alteração física do envelhecimento pode levar a déficits de equilíbrio e distúrbios da marcha, levando à ocorrência de quedas e limitações funcionais, que podem trazer consequências para a saúde do idoso, como fraturas, lesões de pele, redução da mobilidade e dificuldade para realizar as Atividades de Vida Diária -AVD. A Cinesioterapia previne e trata os distúrbios cinéticos funcionais intercorrentes em órgãos e sistemas do corpo humano, gerados por alterações genéticas, por traumas e por doenças adquiridas e se antecipar para tais situações é importante uma vez que com ações preventivas pode-se impedir a ocorrência de acidentes. Este artigo tem como objetivo contribuir para a preservação da função motora funcional, visando alcançar autonomia e o mais importante, melhorar a qualidade de vida. A busca de estudos realizou – se nas bases de dados eletrônicas: Google acadêmico, SciELO, Lilacs – Bireme. Os critérios de inclusão foram: Artigos disponíveis na íntegra, em português no período de 2018 à 2023, com acesso gratuito e que tivessem afinidade com a temática. Identificaram – se no total 40 publicações, após aplicação dos critérios de inclusão, permaneceram 20 estudos. Concluímos que os fisioterapeutas são cruciais com o seu conhecimento técnico e científico, utilizando-se da cinesioterapia promovendo melhorias para o envelhecimento saudável e despertando as pessoas para prestarem mais atenção à saúde dos idosos.

Published: December 2023

A Dengue é uma doença grave, cuja erradicação ainda não foi alcançada em grande parte do mundo. A ausência de uma vacina eficaz e promissora para a prevenção da doença é um dos principais fatores que contribuem para essa situação. O desenvolvimento de Vírus Like Particles (VLPs) tem se mostrado uma estratégia promissora na busca por uma vacina eficaz contra a Dengue. Segundo a literatura, a dengue é caracterizada como um dos principais problemas de saúde pública mundial. Deste modo, é descrita como uma doença infecto contagiosa considerada a principal arbovirose que acomete humanos na atualidade. No entanto, nenhum tratamento específico ou vacina está disponível atualmente no mercado.  Sendo assim, a produção de uma vacina multivalente capaz de induzir uma resposta imunológica contra os quatro sorotipos do vírus (DENV) seria a melhor opção para a prevenção da doença. Considerando que as vacinas de partículas semelhantes a vírus (VLP) tem alcançado resultados positivos na prevenção de outras doenças contagiosas, é possível questionar se este tipo de vacina não teria uma boa eficácia se aplicada a prevenção da dengue. Diante deste cenário, podemos compreender e justificar a importância deste trabalho, uma vez que estudos sobre aplicação da VLP na prevenção da dengue podem auxiliar no desenvolvimento de novos métodos de controle desta doença.

HAK PRIORITAS DAN HAK EKSLUSIF DALAM PERLINDUNGAN HKI
Authors: Sufiarina Sufiarina
Published: December 2023

AbstractIn general, Intellectual Property Rights (HKI)â€”after being registeredâ€”allow their owners to be entitled to legal protection from which exclusive rights are recognized. The registered Intellectual Right provides its owners with legal protection within their jurisdiction nationwide. The exclusive right an owner holds for a certain term of time period enables him or her to make use of it and prevents others from using it. However, the Free Trade and the Internet phenomenon may distort the exclusivity of this right beyond its physical territory, where the unscrupulous might benefit or make profit from it in an unauthorized and illegal manner. Such a condition can be anticipated by the HKI regime by exercising priority rights. The topic in this research is examined through literary study, using descriptive-analytical method. The findings suggest that exercising priority rights can secure exclusive rights of an expatriate living in a particular country.Keywords: Priority rights, exclusive rights, Intellectual Property Rights (HKI)AbstrakHKI umumnya mendapatkan perlindungan melalui pendaftaran yang melahirkan hak ekslusif. Pendaftaran memberikan perlindungan dalam batas-batas teritorial suatu negara. Hak ekslusif dimiliki selama jangka waktu tertentu, yang memberikan kewenangan hanya kepada si pemegang hak untuk menggunakan haknya dan mencegah pihak lain menggunakan HKI tersebut. Namun akibat perdagangan bebas dan fasilitas internet kemungkinan hak ekslusif tersebut bisa saja digunakan oleh pihak lain di luar batas teritorial yang beriktikat tidak baik untuk mendapatkan keuntungan dengan menggunakan hak ekslusif secara tanpa hak dan melawan hukum. Kondisi ini dapat diantisipasi oleh rezim HKI melalui penggunaan hak prioritas. Pembahasan diperoleh melalui studi kepustakaan dengan menggunakan metode deskriptif analitis. Bahwa dengan pemanfaatan fasilitas hak prioritas maka hak ekslusif orang asing di suatu negara dapat diberikan perlindungan.Kata kunci : Hak Prioritas, Hak Ekslusif HKI,
