Published: February 2025

Perkawinan dini menjadi salah satu penyebab perceraian yang paling dominan di Indonesia. Hal ini tentunya perlu menjadi perhatian yang serius karena dapat berdampak pada kualitas generasi penerus di masa depan. Berdasarkan hal tersebut, maka kami tertarik untuk melakukan pencegahan terjadinya perkawinan dini dengan edukasi kepada masyarakat, yaitu melalui penyuluhan hukum yang kami laksanakan di SMAN 42 Jakarta. Menurut Kepala Sekolah SMAN 42 Jakarta yaitu bapak Deden Suhendi, belum pernah ada yang melakukan sosialiasi terkait upaya pencegahan perkawinan dini. Sehingga ini menjadi suatu kesempatan yang baik bagi kami untuk melaksanakan sosialisasi di SMAN 42 Jakarta. Metode yang digunakan dalam kegiatan ini adalah dengan menggunakan metode ceramah, yaitu melalui pemberian materi terkait UU Perkawinan, selain itu juga diberikan pre-test dan post-test untuk mengukur pemahaman siswa tentang materi yang diberikan. Hasil kegiatan ini menunjukkan bahwa berdasarkan perbandingan antara pre-test dan post-test, terdapat kenaikan signifikan terhadap jawaban siswa yang benar terkait materi perkawinan dini. Para  peserta  memahami  materi  yang  disampaikan,  narasumber menguasai materi. Secara  keseluruhan, kegiatan ini sukses dalam  mencapai  tujuan  edukasi  dan  dapat  dijadikan  sebagai  model  untuk  program  pengabdian masyarakat lainnya.
 
Early marriage is one of the most dominant causes of divorce in Indonesia. This certainly needs serious attention because it can affect the quality of the next generation in the future. Based on this, we are interested in preventing early marriage by educating the community, namely through legal counseling that we carry out at SMAN 42 Jakarta. According to the Principal of SMAN 42 Jakarta, Mr. Deden Suhendi, no one has ever conducted socialization related to efforts to prevent early marriage. So this is a good opportunity for us to carry out socialization at SMAN 42 Jakarta. The method used in this activity is to use the lecture method, namely by providing material related to the Marriage Law, in addition to a pre-test and post-test to measure students' understanding of the material given. The results of this activity show that based on the comparison between the pre-test and post-test, there is a significant increase in students' correct answers related to the material on early marriage. The participants understand the material presented, the resource person masters the material. Overall, this activity was successful in achieving educational goals and can be used as a model for other community service programs.

Background: Dermatophytoses are caused by keratinophilic fungi called dermatophytes, which can invade keratinized tissue. Dermatophytoses is a serious health concern in regions with high humidity, dense population density, and poor sanitary conditions. Many antifungal drugs are available to treat this infection but in routine clinical practice, these antifungal drugs are not always effective. For this reason, antifungal susceptibility test is an epidemiological concern to reduce the dermatophytic infection. Objective: This study was aimed to evaluate the susceptibility patterns of Tricophyton Rubrum and Tricophyton Mentagrophytes to antifungal drugs. Methods: To determine the pattern of antifungal susceptibility in dermatophytes, this study comprised 246 patients with a clinical diagnosis of dermophytoses across all age groups. The skin, hair, and nails were sampled in an aseptic manner. These samples were mounted in potassium hydroxide (KOH) and cultured on sabouraud dextrose agar (SDA). Direct microscopy and culture method were used in diagnosis of dermatophytosis. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and biochemical tests (urease test and hair perforation test) were used to identify dermatophyte species. An established colony was cultivated on potato dextrose agar (PDA) for sensitivity testing. Following notable sporulation, the spores were collected in normal saline and a standardized inoculum adjusted with 0.5 Mcfarland solution was applied to SDA plates, which were then incubated at room temperature (26-28˚C). After three to seven days, the zone of inhibition was evaluated and the drug's sensitivity, intermediate level, or resistance was determined accordingly. Results: It was observed that, thirty-one (93.55%) Trichophyton rubrum and 45 (91.11%) Trichophyton mentagrophytes were resistant to fluconazole. Twenty (64.52%) Trichophyton rubrum and 30 (66.67%) Trichophyton mentagrophyte were resistant to terbinafine. Resistant to itraconazole and voriconazole were ...

Authors: Masood Ishtiyaq , Brar Bupinder , Singla Neeraj
Published: February 2025

Left bundle branch block (LBBB) makes ECG interpretation difficult in acute coronary syndrome. Sgarbossa criteria is usually used for diagnosing myocardial infarction in presence of LBBB. However not all patients fulfil this criterion. Our case, a 66 year old hypertensive & diabetic male who was finally diagnosed as acute coronary syndrome did not fulfil Sgarbossa & modified Sgarbossa criteria. Hence we need a comprehensive ECG analysis in patients with chest pain & new or presumably new onset LBBB. Our algorithmic approach that is demonstrated in our case report, combines multiple criteria with different sensitivities and specificities and can be valuable in diagnosing myocardial infarction in presence of LBBB.

Published: February 2025

Neurofibromas are benign tumors that develop from the nerve roots and plexuses of the spinal nerves. Plexiform neurofibromas, which are pathognomonic of Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1), are typically slow-growing and can present with a variety of symptoms depending on their location. This article reports the case of a 7-year-old child with a history of scoliosis who presented with a swelling in the lumbar region. Clinical examination revealed painless subcutaneous nodules, multiple café au lait spots, and hypertrichosis. Ultrasound showed hypo-echoic, well-limited, hypervascular nodules, while thoracolumbar MRI revealed T2 hyperintense nodular thickening of the dorsolumbar roots and paraspinal soft tissues, consistent with plexiform neurofibromas. These findings confirmed the diagnosis of NF1 with plexiform neurofibromas. The discussion highlights the importance of clinical examination and advanced imaging, particularly MRI, in diagnosing NF1 and assessing the extent of the lesions. Management primarily involves symptom monitoring, as complete surgical resection is often challenging. Early diagnosis and long-term follow-up are critical to managing complications such as tumor progression, skeletal abnormalities, and malignant transformation.

Published: February 2025

This study aims to describe the utilization of the learning community feature on the Merdeka Mengajar Platform (PMM) and identify the challenges faced by teachers in accessing and using this feature at SDN 182/1 Hutan Lindung. The research was conducted at SDN 182/1 Hutan Lindung during the odd semester of the 2024/2025 academic year. A qualitative method with a case study approach was employed. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving teachers of grades IV, V, and VI. The validity of the data was tested using triangulation of techniques, sources, and time. The findings indicate that the use of the learning community feature on PMM is still low. Teachers only utilized this feature at the initial stages, such as joining a community or participating in one specific activity, but there was no continuity in its use. Activities within the learning community were limited because teachers more frequently used other features, such as self-training and teaching tools, which were considered more relevant to supporting their daily tasks. Additionally, the lack of routine habits in accessing this feature also contributed to its limited use. The challenges faced by teachers in accessing and utilizing the learning community feature include several aspects. Limited technological skills caused difficulties in navigating the PMM interface. High workloads made it challenging for teachers to allocate time to explore features like the learning community. Low teacher motivation to actively participate was influenced by the lack of support from the school environment and limited supporting facilities.

Detour Index of Major Road Transport Links of Rajasthan.
Authors: - Dr. Akhilesh Vaishnava
Published: February 2025

Rajasthan is the largest state in area in India. India has second largest road transport network after U.S.A. and Rajasthan also has second largest road transport network in country after U.P. It was very difficult to analyse the whole road transport network of the largest state which could mislead from the way of the object of study and could give flawed results. That is why only those major links are included which join the district headquarters to the capital of state. Detour index is an effective measure of the efficiency of transport network. It is a good indicator of the level of complexity of topology. A straight-line link is a route of minimum distance between two nodes. But these are found rarely in real world. Even the straight-line links also have deviation to some extent. These types of deviations are found due to physical barriers like mountains, rivers, ravines, plateaus, lakes, ponds etc.; which are measured by detour index.

Authors: Silma Farraha  , Husni  , Deswita Sari  , Rikarni  , Zelly Dia  , Dwi Yulia
Published: February 2025

Background: Dengue infection remains a significant health concern in Indonesia, with a high mortality rate. Early identification and prediction of severe dengue are crucial for effective management and mortality reduction. The platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) has emerged as a potential biomarker for assessing dengue severity due to its association with inflammatory responses.
Methods: This descriptive study included 48 pediatric patients diagnosed with dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and dengue shock syndrome (DSS) at Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital Padang between March and August 2024. Patients were included if they were aged 0-18 years, had a confirmed diagnosis of DHF or DSS, and underwent complete blood count and serological testing for dengue. Patients with chronic diseases or other comorbidities were excluded. Complete blood counts were performed using flow cytometry, and PLR was calculated by dividing the platelet count by the absolute lymphocyte count. Clinical data were obtained from medical records.
Results: The majority of patients were aged 6-18 years (68.8%), with 20 (41.7%) presenting with DHF and 28 (58.3%) with DSS. The median platelet count was lower in DSS patients (26,000/mm3) compared to DHF patients (35,500/mm3). The median PLR was also significantly lower in DSS patients (8.95) compared to DHF patients (15.61). A PLR value <20 was more frequently observed in DSS patients (89.3%) than in DHF patients (75%).
Conclusion: A lower PLR value was associated with more severe clinical manifestations of dengue infection, particularly DSS. PLR can serve as a valuable biomarker for assessing dengue severity, utilizing readily available and cost-effective complete blood count results.

The control group (n = 40) received risperidone treatment plus routine discharge guidance. The experimental group (n = 40) adopted probiotics consisting of Bifidobacterium longum, Lactobacillusacidophilus, and Enterococcus faecalis combined with risperidone treatment plus continuing nursing based on a remote health service platform. The positive and negative symptom scale scores and Schizophrenia Patients Quality of Life Scale scores were declined, the 8-item Morisky medication adherence scale score was elevated at 1, 6, and 12 months after intervention, and the improvements of these scores were more obvious in the experimental group than the control group. After intervention, neuron-specific enolase declined while the serum levels of the nerve growth factor, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, and neuregulin 1 were elevated, and the improvements in these proinflammatory cytokines were more obvious in the experimental group. After intervention, proinflammatory factors such as interleukin-4, interleukin-6, and interleukin-8 levels declined, and those in the experimental group presented lower than the control group. Continuing nursing based on RHSP combined with probiotics can improve proinflammatory cytokines, reduce the inflammatory response, and also elevate the medication compliance and quality of life of patients with schizophrenia.
Investigation of Effect of Flexural and Torsional Moment Values on Optimum RC Beam Design
Authors: Duysak Yasi̇n , Bekdaş Gebrai̇l
Published: February 2025

In reinforced concrete structural design, the sizing and reinforcement of structural elements, as well as the cost-effective fabrication of structural elements and the system, are essential considerations for structural engineers. Today, optimization methods are applied to ensure that structural elements can resist the design loads imposed on them and are sized and reinforced cost-effectively. In this study, in addition to the previous research on the optimum design of the beam section, four different bending moments are considered, and the effects of bending moments and torsional moments are investigated for the optimal cost-effective sizing and reinforcement of reinforced concrete beams. JAYA algorithm is used for beam section design and cost optimization. In this study, four different bending moments and six different torsional moments are applied to the beam section, and a shear force of 150 kN is applied to all beam sections. A total of 48 different beam analyses are performed for two different concrete classes using the MATLAB program. The design constraints and design rules of the widely used ACI 318 code (Building code requirements for structural concrete) are taken into account for beam design. The study clearly shows that an increase in torsional moment leads to an increase in the area of web reinforcement and a decrease in stirrup spacing, while an increase in bending moment leads to an increase in flexural reinforcement. The algorithm can effectively design the beam width and height to enable the beam to efficiently resist the applied moments. It is observed that the JAYA algorithm is effective for optimal beam design under different loads and proves its accuracy in previous studies.

Introduction. The aim. To substantiate the effectiveness of the use of High Pressure Processing (HPP) technology for food processing suppression and destruction of pathogenic microorganisms. Materials and methods. In the process of studying the impact of HPR technologies for the suppression and destruction of microorganisms in ready-made vegetable salads, high-pressure processing studies using the "Food Hydrostat, model 600MPa/30L" were conducted. Sampling and quality assessment were carried out in accordance with standard methods on the basis of a Testing laboratory Center (FBUZ Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology in the Sverdlovsk Region), microbiological indicators on the basis of an independent laboratory of Quality Med LLC. Results and discussion. When using high Pressure Processing (HPP) in the processing process, packaged products are placed in special containers completely immersed in water, where they are subjected to uniform compression from all sides. The process of high hydrostatic pressure is based on the application of pressure up to several thousand bar, which makes it possible to destroy pathogenic microorganisms, while preserving the nutrients and organoleptic properties of the products. This method acts on products uniformly and instantly throughout the entire volume, regardless of their shape and size, without restrictions. The conducted studies of finished products at the end of the technological process showed full compliance with the established standard for the KMAFAnM indicator (5×103 CFU/g). During the storage of both samples of HPR-treated salads, an increase in the overall level of microbial contamination is noted. However, even after 7 days of storage, all the studied samples met the established criteria for this indicator (in lg CFU/g values did not exceed 5x104 CFU/cm3), while the level of CMAFAnM in a salad sample without high-pressure treatment exceeded the standard 10 times after 7 days. Conclusion. High pressure treatment is an effective method for extending the shelf life of ready-to-eat salads. It allows you to significantly reduce the level of pathogenic microbiota and preserve the physico-chemical characteristics of products. The prospects for the use of HPR open up new opportunities to improve the safety and quality of ready-made vegetable salads, which is especially important in the conditions of the modern food market.

Introduction. The aim. To study the actual types of pharmacological activity of extracts and basic sesquiterpene lactones from the LaurusnobilisL. leaves of the noble laurel. Materials and methods.The work uses samples of Laurusnobilisleaves collected in the southern regions of the Russian Federation during the main phases of plant growth and development. We also used samples of Laurusnobilisleaves purchased in the retail chain from various manufacturers, which had the appropriate quality and safety certificates. The study of toxicity and antidiabetic activity was carried out using well known methods. The study of antitubercular activity was carried out by the nitrate reductase method. Results and discussion. Essential oil, sesquiterpene lactones (especially dehydrocostuslactone), in comparison with known antituberculosis drugs, show pronounced activity against clinical strains of tuberculosis. A comparison of the effectiveness of the course application of the developed collection with Laurusnobilisleaves in relation to the prototype collection (without laurel leaves) showed that the studied antidiabetic collection reduces blood glucose levels (to 7.6±0.15 mmol/L compared with 11.2 ±0.8 mmol/L when using the prototype collection and from 24.5±2.3 mmol/l in intact animals), as well as normalize the indicators of total cholesterol, β-lipoproteins and insulin. Conclusion. Essential oil and sesquiterpene lactones exhibit anti-tuberculosis activity against the studied clinical strains. The collection developed by the authors (with leaves of noble laurel) has hypoglycemic activity.

As a result of the conducted research, kinetic patterns of the drying process were obtained, which are necessary to determine the rational duration of dehydration and identify its mechanism based on the study of hygroscopic characteristics of raffinate crushed pulp of persimmon fruits. For crushed pulp of persimmon fruits, dewatering of raffinate is advisable to be carried out with convective supply of thermal energy by a heated air stream that moves orthogonally along the trajectory of the dried product. The above research results do not conflict with the results of other scientists, which makes it possible to use them in the engineering practice of the food industry in the design of plants for dehydration of plant products. It is noted that the dry raffinate from blanched persimmon contains a large proportion of dietary fiber and swelling capacity. The conducted studies allowed us to identify rational operating parameters of convective drying of fruit raffinate, namely: the speed of the drying agent equal to 2.5 m/s, its temperature 75 ° C and the filling level of the working space of the drum – 1/2 with a maximum theoretical productivity of Y =208 (kg / (m3· hour)). The temperature of the coolant differs from the final temperature of the product by 15-20 ° C, as a result of which the limiting temperature of the drying agent is assumed to be about 75 ° C, which is justified by experimental data at a higher temperature of the coolant relative to the recommended one in the article.

The role of cognitive linguistics in language evolution
Authors:   Teacher of Kokand university, Uzbekistan, qizi Komilova Malikaxon Nodirjon

The conceptualization of time and space is a fundamental aspect of human cognition, deeply embedded in language. Cognitive linguistics provides a framework for understanding how individuals mentally structure these abstract domains through embodied experiences and cultural influences. This study examines how metaphor, image schemas, and conceptual blending shape linguistic representations of time and space. Findings reveal that time is often conceptualized through spatial metaphors, such as the "Moving Time" and "Time as a Path" metaphors, which structure human perception of temporal progression. Spatial cognition is influenced by embodied schemas like the "Container Schema" and "Source-Path-Goal" schema, reflecting physical experiences of movement and orientation. Cross-linguistic studies highlight cultural variations in time and space conceptualization, demonstrating that languages differ in how they encode spatial and temporal relationships. Conceptual Blending Theory further explains how mental spaces interact to create new linguistic meanings. The study concludes that while cognitive mechanisms underlying time and space conceptualization are universal, cultural and technological factors influence their linguistic expressions. Future research should explore how digital communication and evolving cultural paradigms shape the cognitive and linguistic representation of time and space.

Pyogenic cocci are among the most significant pathogens responsible for both hospital-acquired and community-acquired infections, leading to considerable morbidity and mortality worldwide. Over the past few decades, since the advent of antibiotics, the emergence and spread of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) have become a serious healthcare challenge. In this study, patients with Staphylococcal infections were observed in two major hospitals located in Tashkent city. Monitoring revealed a sharp increase in infection rates over the last three years, particularly in 2021-2023, with 3,695 infections recorded at the Tashkent Medical Academy and 14,632 cases at the Republican Scientific Center for Emergency Medical Care during the same period. Considering this situation, the effects of various antibiotics and bacteriophages as alternative treatments for Staphylococcus infections were studied. Results showed significant effectiveness with Cefoperazone + Sulbactam (2.8 cm), Fosfosin (2.7 cm), Cefepime (2.7 cm), Amikacin (2.6 cm), Levofloxacin (2.7 cm), Doxycycline (2.6 cm each), and Levomycetin (2.7 cm). The bacteriophage demonstrated an efficacy of 1.5 cm within 12 hours.
