Published: February 2025

Dalam memenuhi kebutuhan energi listrik, pada saat beban dihidupkan maka distribusi beban tidak sinkron sehingga terjadi ketidakseimbangan beban yang mempengaruhi suplai daya Untuk itu penulis ingin melakukan penelitian untuk menganalisis ketidakseimbangan beban tersebut. akibat kerugian yang terjadi pada gardu distribusi GLS 84 di desa Polohungo. Data terukur dari lapangan operasi distribusi digunakan sebagai acuan untuk menemukan dan menentukan gardu distribusi dengan beban tidak seimbang. Secara umum, beban tidak seimbang dapat dengan mudah diinduksi dengan melihat hasil pengukuran arus netral. Jika arus netral lebih besar atau sama dengan arus fasa diperoleh, beban yang tidak seimbang pada jaringan harus dicurigai. Induksi beban tidak seimbang juga dapat dilihat dari besarnya arus untuk masing-masing fasa (R, S dan T) yang memiliki selisih yang besar.Dari hasil prosentase terlihat bahwa pada malam hari ketidakseimbangan beban pada trafo lebih besar (19%), dibandingkan pada siang hari yaitu (5%). Hal ini disebabkan oleh penggunaan listrik yang tidak merata sehingga menimbulkan beban yang tidak seimbang. Ketidakseimbangan beban menyebabkan arus mengalir pada penghantar netral. Arus ini merupakan kerugian yang harus ditanggung oleh PT. PLN karena di sepanjang penghantar netral terdapat hambatan. Ada kebutuhan untuk perawatan transformator triwulanan, trimester atau tahunan untuk mencegah ketidakseimbangan beban, dan untuk mencegah kerusakan pada transformator.

The Maximum Number of Connected Sets in Regular Graphs
Authors: Cambie Stijn , Jooken Jorik , Goedgebeur Jan
Published: February 2025

We make some fundamental observations and conjectures on the number of connected sets $N(G)$ in $d$-regular graphs $G$. We improve the best known lower bounds on the exponential behavior of the maximum of $N(G)$ for regular graphs by considering a different construction of a family of graphs (depending on smaller base graphs) and improve the upper bounds conditional on one of our conjectures. The lower bounds are estimated using combinatorial reductions and linear algebra. We also determine the exact maxima of $N(G)$ for cubic and quartic graphs with small order.
New Strongly Regular Graphs Found via Local Search for Partial Difference Sets
Authors: Brady Andrew
Published: February 2025

Strongly regular graphs (SRGs) are highly symmetric combinatorial objects, with connections to many areas of mathematics including finite fields, finite geometries, and number theory. One can construct an SRG via the Cayley Graph of a regular partial difference set (PDS). Local search is a common class of search algorithm that iteratively adjusts a state to (locally) minimize an error function. In this work, we use local search to find PDSs. We found PDSs with 62 different parameter values in 1254 nonisomorphic groups of orders at most 147. Many of these PDSs replicate known results. In two cases, (144,52,16,20) and (147,66,25,33), the PDSs found give the first known construction of SRGs with these parameters. In some other cases, the SRG was already known but a PDS in that group was unknown. This work also corroborates the existence of $(64,18,2,6)$ PDSs in precisely 73 groups of order 64.
Necessary Condition for Optimal Control of Uncertain Stochastic Systems
Authors: Hlahla Clift Kudzai , Chikodza Eriyoti
Published: February 2025

This paper examines an uncertain stochastic maximum principle, aiming to establish a necessary condition for optimality in control problems through the classical variational approach. By integrating Liu’s uncertainty theory with conventional stochastic optimal control theory, the study addresses a hybrid optimal control problem that merges elements from both frameworks. The analysis operates under the assumption that the associated adjoint equation, specifically the uncertain backward stochastic differential equation (UBSDE), exists uniquely. This assumption is grounded in prior research that has rigorously established the existence and uniqueness of UBSDEs.

Prevalence of diseases of the nose and paranasal sinuses in community-acquired pneumonia
Authors:   Republic of Uzbekistan, Tashkent Medical Academy, Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Uzbekistan, Bakiyeva Shahlo Xamidullayevna
Published: February 2025

In most cases, patients with community-acquired pneumonia have inflammatory diseases of the nose and paranasal sinuses, as well as in patients who have had a history of inflammatory diseases of the upper respiratory tract several weeks and months ago. When examining such patients with rhinosinusitis, the functions of the nose and paranasal sinuses are impaired, which in turn leads to the activation of opportunistic microflora, which increases the adhesion of pathogenic microorganisms to the mucous membrane of the upper respiratory tract and creates favorable conditions for microbial colonization. It is known that viruses have a bronchotropic effect, manifested by damage to the epithelium and a violation of the trophism of the bronchi due to damage to the nerve conductors. Under the influence of the general toxic effect of the virus, phagocytosis is inhibited, immunological protection is impaired, as a result, favorable conditions are created for the entry of pathogenic bacterial flora located in the upper respiratory tract into the bronchi and alveoli of the lungs, which to a large extent contributes to the development of diseases of the lower respiratory tract.

Authors:   University of the West of Scotland, Paisley campus, UK, Pendlebury Ben , James Kieran ,   University of the West of Scotland, Paisley campus, UK
Published: February 2025

This article will detail the Post Office and Horizon scandal (United Kingdom), from the implementation of the system to the wrongful accusations and fallout from the High Court case that found the system utterly unfit for purpose. Four ethical theories will be detailed: Foucault’s ethics, Utilitarianism, Deontology, and Sartrean Existentialism. The Horizon scandal represents a significant ethical failure within the Post Office, according to notions of accountability, transparency, and corporate responsibility. The primary ethical issue was the lack of accountability from the Post Office management. Despite repeated reports of problems with the Horizon system, the Post Office continued to rely on its data to prosecute sub-postmasters. This shows a disregard for the responsibility they held over the system's accuracy and the lives of their subpostmasters. In light of the Horizon scandal, and as a means to attempt to regain public trust, there should be reforms under four headings: Improved Oversight; Greater Transparency; Compensation and Rehabilitation; and Ethical Training. Compensation and Rehabilitation implies providing adequate compensation and support for those wronged by the scandal and ensuring that their reputations are restored. Ethical Training means implementing comprehensive ethical training programmes within the organization to foster a culture of accountability and fairness.

The specific objectives of the study are to determine the effect of employment, education, recreation and social orientation on youth restiveness in Aba. The study adopted descriptive survey design. This study was conducted in Aba, Abia State Nigeria. The metro population of Aba is put at 1,230,407, according to Google (2024). However, following Ekwueme (2014), the population of the youth in Aba is about sixty (60%) percent of the entire population. Hence, 60% of 1,230,407 (Aba population) is 738,244.2. On the strength of this, the population of the study, which makes up the youths is 738,244. With a known population, the sample size of 400 was determined using Taro Yamane statistical formula. We adopted simple random sampling techniques. Structured questionnaire was the major instrument for data collection. The data were analyzed with descriptive statistics such as mean, simple percentage and frequency, and the result shows that all the economic empowerment variables have positive effect on youth restiveness. The four stated hypotheses were tested with multiple linear regression model and the result revealed that, there is significant effect of employment, education and recreation on youth restiveness in Aba, Abia State. However, there is no significant effect of social orientation on youth restiveness in Aba, Abia State, Nigeria. In conclusion, economic empowerment significantly affects youth restiveness in Aba, Abia State, Nigeria. We, therefore, recommended that the government should create jobs to give employment to job seekers as a way of keeping them busy and out of idleness, because an idle brain they say, is the devil’s workshop. Also, entrepreneurship skills acquisition training that produces skilled manpower, innovative and self-reliant citizens should be part of youth trainings than resorting to the palliative and unsustainable approach to attacking hunger, among others.

Published: February 2025

Globally, maternal mortality and morbidity continue to be major public health issues, particularly in low and middle-income countries including Nigeria where access to skilled birth attendants (SBA) remain major challenge. Increasing the number of pregnancies attended by SBA could aid in lowering maternal morbidity and mortality. This study explores the perception of pregnant women towards Birth Preparedness and Complication Readiness (BPCR) in selected Primary Health care facilities of Ondo State, Nigeria. The study employed a qualitative approach where focus group discussion among twenty-two pregnant women were selected from primary health care. Data was analysed using inductive thematic method. Two thematic categories which include knowledge and Practice of pregnant women on BPCR, and seven subthemes emerged from the data; they included knowledge of danger signs, routine scan, and diet, purchase of baby and hospital items, antenatal registration, and exclusive breastfeeding. Poor perception of BPCR and practice were identified among the participants. Hence, the need for midwives to include all the elements BPCR into the prenatal education in order to reduce maternal health complications and death is recommended as this would lead to positive pregnancy outcome.

Published: February 2025

O desgaste dentário severo é uma condição multifatorial que afeta a função mastigatória, a estética facial e a qualidade de vida, frequentemente associada a hábitos parafuncionais, como o bruxismo, e alterações oclusais. Este relato de caso clínico aborda a reabilitação estética e funcional de um paciente de 44 anos que apresentava desgaste incisal e oclusal severo, mordida cruzada posterior, desvio de linha média, lesões cervicais não cariosas e redução significativa da dimensão vertical de oclusão (DVO). As queixas incluíam dificuldades mastigatórias, baixa exposição dentária ao sorrir e insatisfação estética. O planejamento e execução do tratamento foram realizados utilizando tecnologias digitais avançadas, como o articulador virtual e o software Exocad. Essas ferramentas permitiram uma análise funcional precisa e a personalização do tratamento, culminando na confecção de facetas de porcelana para os dentes anteriores, tabletops cerâmicos para os dentes posteriores e coroas sobre implantes nos dentes 36, 37 e 17. O uso de um jig de desprogramação foi essencial para determinar a posição mandibular ideal e registrar a nova DVO. Os desfechos do tratamento incluíram a restauração da DVO, a correção da mordida cruzada e do desvio da linha média, além de uma melhora significativa na exposição dentária e na harmonia facial. O paciente relatou alta satisfação funcional e estética. Este relato reforça a eficácia das tecnologias digitais no planejamento e execução de reabilitações complexas, evidenciando a importância de uma abordagem interdisciplinar e baseada em evidências para a prática odontológica moderna.

Dépistage du déficit de la dihydropyrimidine déshydrogénase : une prévention de la toxicité des fluoropyrimidines
Authors: Narjoz Céline , Maillard Mathilde , Loriot Marie-Anne , Thomas Frédéric
Published: February 2025

Le 5-fluoro-uracile (5-FU) et la capécitabine appartiennent à la classe des fluoropyrimidines, molécules cytotoxiques anciennes mais encore indispensables pour le traitement de nombreuses tumeurs solides (côlon et rectum, oropharynx, seins, ovaires). Ces molécules peuvent entraîner des effets indésirables, principalement hématologiques et digestifs. Une des causes de la toxicité des fluoropyrimidines est le déficit de l’activité de la dihydropyrimidine déshydrogénase (DPD), une enzyme impliquée dans leur inactivation et leur élimination. Une forte variabilité interindividuelle de l’activité enzymatique est décrite et l’existence de déficits complets à l’origine de décès liés à la toxicité médicamenteuse nécessite sa détermination avant l’initiation d’un traitement. L’activité DPD peut être évaluée soit directement par la mesure de l’uracilémie (approche phénotypique), soit par l’identification des variants délétères du gène DPYD (approche génotypique). En s’appuyant sur de nombreuses études et recommandations de groupes d’experts en pharmacogénétique, nationaux et internationaux, l’Agence nationale de sécurité du médicament et des produits de santé a récemment rendu obligatoire le dépistage du déficit en DPD. Cette décision garantit une meilleure pratique de prescription des fluoropyrimidines, en termes d’efficacité et de sécurité pour le patient.

L’objectif de cet article est de présenter l’évolution récente de la tuberculose en Île-de-France et dans chacun des départements de la région au cours des trois années 2015 à 2017. Ce bilan porte sur les cas de tuberculose-maladie déclarés en Île-de-France entre 2015 et 2017, l’année 2015 étant utilisée comme année de référence. Les taux d’incidence des cas de tuberculose déclarés ont été calculés sur la base des données de l’Insee de l’année correspondante. Les taux par département ont été standardisés par âge, la population d’Île-de-France étant utilisée comme population de référence. Le taux de déclaration de la tuberculose en Île-de-France a augmenté de façon significative entre 2015 et 2017, passant de 14,6/105 habitants en 2015 à 15,8/105 habitants en 2017 (+ 8,2 %, p < 0,01), suggérant une possible inversion de tendance. Tous les départements franciliens ont franchi le seuil de 10 cas de tuberculose/105 habitants en 2017. Des disparités infrarégionales sont observées avec notamment une augmentation du nombre de cas plus importante dans la capitale, atteignant un taux de 16,8/105) habitants en 2017 (contre 13,5/105 en 2015, p < 0,01). Le taux de déclaration chez les personnes nées à l’étranger a augmenté contrairement à celui observé chez les personnes nées en France qui, lui, a diminué. Parmi les cas de tuberculose déclarés en Île-de-France, une hausse est observée chez les hommes, chez les résidents en collectivité et, parmi les personnes nées à l’étranger, chez les primo-arrivants. Une tendance à la hausse des cas de tuberculose maladie est observée en Île-de-France depuis 2016. Les populations concernées par cette augmentation sont celles souffrant le plus de précarité et de promiscuité, notamment les personnes nées à l’étranger, en hébergement collectif ou sans domicile fixe et celles arrivées récemment en France. Ces observations incitent à poursuivre et renforcer l’adaptation du dépistage de ces populations à risque.

L’analyse morphologique des cellules de frottis sanguins est un examen majeur et incontournable pour les biologistes en hématologie. Elle est principalement effectuée par microscopie optique, méthode de référence, présentant néanmoins plusieurs inconvénients dont une variabilité analytique importante d’un opérateur à un autre ainsi qu’une fatigabilité non négligeable du personnel examinant les frottis. Depuis plusieurs années, les microscopes automatisés ont pris une place prépondérante dans nos laboratoires de façon plus ou moins optimisée, les biologistes ne sachant pas toujours comment les positionner par rapport à un microscope optique. Un groupe de travail constitué de huit biologistes cytologistes du Groupe Francophone d’Hématologie Cellulaire et possédant un microscope automatisé propose dans cet article des recommandations pour une intégration optimale de ces automates au sein des laboratoires d’hématologie, particulièrement au niveau de la qualification initiale et du suivi des performances de l’automate, de l’habilitation du personnel et du maintien des compétences.
Nueva fuente de las anotaciones del Brocense en su traducción del Enchiridion de Epicteto
Authors: Carmona Centeno David
Published: February 2025

Las anotaciones del Brocense en la Doctrina del estoico filósofo Epicteto (1600), la primera traducción al español del Enchiridion, sientan las bases del neoestocismo en nuestro país. Aunque Sánchez aporta material de su propia cosecha, las anotaciones resultan menos originales de lo que hasta ahora se pensaba, pues aquel usa como fuente principal los comentarios con que Thomas Naogeorgus (1508-1563), un autor protestante, glosa su versión al latín, Moralis Philosophiae Medulla (Estrasburgo, 1554). Este descubrimiento hace necesaria una nueva edición.
Sociomotor Games and Sustainable Development
Authors: Ferretti Enrico , Bortolotti Alessandro
Published: February 2025

This study, situated within the field of Motor Praxeology, examines the educational and social impacts of five sociomotor activities—three Traditional Sports Games and two Sports—implemented in high schools in Switzerland and Italy. Employing the Semantic Differential as an analytical tool, the research evaluated participants' perceptions of their experiences during the proposed activities. The findings reveal a generally positive reception; however, traditional games emerged as more inclusive, fostering gender equity and overall well-being. In contrast, sports were found to be more divisive, often perpetuating and reinforcing gender stereotypes. These results are framed within the context of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, underscoring the potential of motor play to enhance awareness of social sustainability and contribute to addressing future global challenges.

Cryptography has a crucial role in maintaining the security of sensitive information on digital assets. By applying strong encryption techniques, cryptography converts data into a format that is not easily read by unauthorized parties. This not only minimizes the risk of illegal access or hacking, but also ensures that information can only be accessed by parties who have the appropriate keys. Decryption techniques then allow legitimate recipients to restore the data to its original form. cryptography uses complex mathematical algorithms to convert original data into a secure, encrypted form. This applies not only to data storage in secure repositories, but also to data transmission over communications networks. Thus, the application of cryptography is not only a prerequisite for protecting sensitive information, but also for ensuring trust in data exchange in the digital era. Cryptography is the main foundation in maintaining the security of sensitive information on digital assets.

Phishing is still one of the most common and dangerous types of cyber threats, and it keeps getting more sophisticated. The increasing prevalence of phishing attempts has made it necessary for enterprises across the globe to prioritize the development of offensive and defensive cybersecurity solutions. This case study explores the current state of phishing and the developments in cyber protection tactics that have accompanied them, showcasing actual situations in which businesses have successfully reduced these risks. Phishing uses human psychology to trick people into disclosing private data, such as login passwords, bank account details, or other personal information. It frequently takes the form of official correspondence. A more advanced variation called spear-phishing is more difficult to identify and counter since it uses carefully constructed communications that are targeted at certain people or companies. More proactive threat identification and response are now possible thanks to the integration of AI and ML with conventional SIEM systems.

Some of the existing threats in cybersecurity which prominent today are phishing attacks which takes advantage of people's psychological weaknesses. In this paper, the psychological factors that can be regarded as the basis and facilitation of phishing attacks are investigated, as well as the existing methods of protection are assessed. In a systematic literature review, we synthesize existing literature on psychological attack cues, assess the efficacy of various psychological attack cues by type of attack, and discuss variation in the susceptibility of individuals to phishing attacks. The work presented herein identifies primary psychological triggers which are used by attackers, which are as follows: authority, urgency, curiosity, social proof, scarcity. We present a psychological model of phishing susceptibility and guidelines for amendments to existing defines mechanisms, including a focus on incorporating psychological theories into the technical, increasing user awareness, and more individualised protective measures. This paper provides insight into the human factor aspect in cybersecurity and presents meaningful recommendations that can help to mitigate the problem of phishing more effectively.

South African national students financial aid scheme crisis: Theory of communicative action
Authors: Albertus Rene W. , Makoza Frank
Published: February 2025

In this article, the researchers interrogate the media discourse on the national students financial aid scheme (NSFAS) crisis, as well as how the language used by politicians and students, shaped the decision-making of stakeholders. A qualitative approach was employed to analyse online media articles. Content analysis was used to organise the online media text into themes, corresponding to the concepts of the Theory of Communicative Action (TCA), and subsequently, critically interrogate the discourses presented in the text. The findings revealed claims of corruption and irregularities in the administration of the NSFAS programme, as a network of service providers and public servants was created, to assist each other in the tender process, and facilitate the looting at NSFAS. The institution failed to act on the claims, creating the impression that students were dependent on government handouts, while stripping them of the responsibility of managing the NSFAS debt. In addition, the crisis resulted in students’ protests at several higher education institutions in South Africa. In this study, the researchers offer useful insights into issues that affect NSFAS, to policymakers and managers, regarding improvements required for the effective governance, operations, and sustainability of NSFAS.Contribution: Several studies have outlined diverse issues on the NSFAS performance, and this study goes further to highlight how the media shaped the decision-making of the stakeholders.
