Published: October 2019

In an effort to provide motivation to improve the dedication and performance of the teller, the selection of the best teller is done periodically every year, some criteria that are performance appraisals are discipline, initiative, thorough, friendly, and speed of service, During this time the assessment of tellers by the Branch Manager does not yet have a method that can handle priority problems with many of these criteria so that the Branch Manager often has difficulty in choosing the best employee objectively.For the sake of work efficiency and effectiveness, we need an appropriate decision-making method with the aim to build and provide an alternative to a decision support system that is the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method,in the AHP method there is the concept of eigen vector for the priority ranking process of each criterion based on a pairwise comparison matrix, this will facilitate the process of selecting the best teller because the concept is simple, easy to understand,the computation is efficient and has the ability to measure performance and alternative decisions in a simple mathematical form,so that we will get the best teller who deserves to get the best teller (bonus) allowance and a better career path in the future. And application programs are made in order to facilitate the application of the use of the AHP method when implemented.

Use and Efficacy of Analgesic Agents in Sheep (Ovis aries) Used in Biomedical Research
Authors: Stillman Mark W , Whittaker Alexandra L
Published: October 2019

Sheep (Ovis aries) are widely used as large animal models in biomedical research. However, current literature on the use of analgesics in sheep generally focuses on an industry or farm level of use. This structured review evaluates use and efficacy of analgesics administered
to sheep in a biomedical research setting. Electronic databases were searched with terms related to analgesia in research sheep. After application of exclusion criteria, 29 peer-reviewed publications were evaluated from 1995 to 2018. Drugs used for analgesia in sheep include opioids, α2
agonists, NSAID, local anesthetics, NMDA receptor antagonists, and calcium channel blockers. Opioid agonists have previously been considered short acting and of questionable efficacy in sheep, but newer modalities may provide effective analgesia. NSAID may exhibit an analgesic effect only
when inflammatory pain is present and may not be beneficial for use in acute pain models. α2 agonists provide effective yet short-lived analgesia; however, side effects are of concern. Local anesthetics were previously widely used as stand-alone agents, as alternatives to
the use of general anesthetics in sheep. These agents have since fallen out of favor as sole agents. Despite this, they provide a valuable analgesic effect when used as adjuncts to general anesthetic regimes. The NMDA antagonist ketamine provided good analgesia and is likely underutilized
as an analgesic agent in sheep. Future controlled studies should further evaluate the analgesic properties of ketamine in sheep.
Género y memoria en La sangre de la aurora de Claudia Salazar Jiménez
Authors: Molina Olivares Mario Esteban
Published: October 2019

Este artículo estudia las representaciones de género en La sangre de la aurora (2013) de Claudia Salazar Jiménez con el fin de examinar la configuración de la memoria del conflicto entre el Estado y Sendero Luminoso en Perú. A la luz de los aportes del feminismo interseccional y del giro afectivo, la argumentación aborda las intensidades afectivas que modifican los cuerpos de las mujeres que se mueven entre el deseo y el miedo. También analiza las funciones de los medios de comunicación que transmiten desinformación junto al afán inquisitivo frente al trauma. A modo de hipótesis de lectura se propone que la experiencia de las protagonistas, especialmente la acentuación de lo afectivo sirve como una forma de establecer líneas de fuga del control institucional.
“Correr y que no te devuelvan, correr para olvidar de dónde has partido”: una lectura de Los documentados (2005) de Yolanda Arroyo
Authors: Bustamante Fernanda
Published: October 2019

En este texto propongo una lectura de la novela Los documentados (2005) de la escritora puertorriqueña Yolanda Arroyo, a partir de la idea de que es un relato que gira en torno a la vulneración y la precariedad de los cuerpos inmigrantes, y en cómo estas subjetividades, en su condición de cuerpos caribeños racializados, se enfrentan a prácticas y discursos que responden a una lógica de repudio y exclusión. Para ello me aproximaré a la obra atendiendo a la representación de las subjetividades migrantes, a la forma como son narrados esos cuerpos-Otros; y me centraré en aquellos episodios en los que se reproduce un discurso xenófobo, en los que se denuncian las perversas estructuras raciales sobre las que se construyeron, o negociaron, las identidades caribeñas.

Children are important too: juvenile playgroups and maternal childcare in a foraging population, the Agta
Authors: Page Abigail Emma , Emmott Emily H , Dyble Mark , Smith Daniel , Chaudhary Nikhil , Viguier Sylvain , Migliano Andrea
Published: October 2019

Non-maternal caregivers (allomothers) are hypothesised to lighten the mother’s workload, producing human’s specialised life history where multiple dependent offspring are produced over a relatively short time period. Here, using in-depth observational data on who for cares for 78 Agta children (aged 0-6 years, a foraging population in northern Philippines), we explore whether allomaternal childcare substitutes (and thus decreases) maternal childcare. Previous work has investigated the role of fathers, grandmothers and siblings as allomothers, frequently overlooking non-relatives, particularly juveniles providing ‘collective childcare’ in playgroups. We found that mothers’ childcare was reduced by allomothers, but the substitutive effect varied depending on the source and type of care. Playgroups, by playing with children aged 2 and above, consistently predicted a decrease in maternal childcare. While few grandmothers were available, they were nonetheless negatively associated with maternal presence, and thus childcare, as they performed childcare activities, similar to mothers. These results underscore the importance of allomothering in reducing mothers’ childcare workload in the Agta. Mother’s flexibility in obtaining childcare from a range of available sources, including playgroups, may be the key to humans’ life history evolution, underling the necessity of a broad conceptualisation of social support in human childcare.
Beyond peaceful protest: When non-participants support violence against the police
Authors: Saavedra Patricio , Drury John
Published: October 2019

One of the most controversial issues related to protests is the use of violence by protesters. Although there is a strong social norm against protest violence, research has suggested that protesters’ endorsement of non-violent actions can change according to the legitimacy of police actions during protests. However, both non-participants’ support for protest violence and its relationship with authorities’ measures regarding protests have barely been studied. To address this, we interviewed 17 British undergraduate students with diverse previous experiences as protesters about their views on protest violence. For the interviews, we used vignettes to describe two fictional scenarios, one where the government and the police actively restrict the right to protest and another where authorities facilitate protesters’ actions. A thematic analysis incorporating elements from the ideological dilemmas approach was carried out to explore the range of arguments related to protest violence. We found that most participants articulated a variety of expressions that made up a recognisable cultural pattern: protest should be peaceful. However, when participants perceived that ‘the right to protest’ was threatened by state repression, those who earlier rejected protest violence argued that they would support the use of violence against the police as ‘self-defence’. Our findings suggest there are pervasive frameworks for interpreting and responding to real contexts of political openness and repression, and reflective of people’s ability to simultaneously hold contradictory views about the legitimacy of protest violence.
The role of intentional and automatic processes in two health-promoting nutrition behaviours: a test across a middle-school and university sample
Authors: Brown Daniel , Charlesworth Jessica-Paige , Hagger Martin S , Hamilton Kyra
Published: October 2019

Objective: High sugar-sweetened beverage consumption and low fruit and vegetable intake are associated with a range of health issues. Both intentional and automatic processes have been found to play a significant role in health behaviour change; however, previous research has tended to focus on goal-directed habits, while other potentially important automatic factors (e.g., counter-intentional habit) have been largely ignored. The aim of the current study is to understand the role of both intentional and automatic processes (i.e., goal-directed and counter-intentional habits) in two health-promoting nutrition behaviours (i.e., eating the recommended serves of fruits and vegetables a day and restricting sugar-sweetened beverage consumption) across two age-cohorts (i.e., middle school students aged 11 – 14 years and university students aged 17 – 24 years). Methods: A prospective design with two waves of data collection spaced one week apart was adopted. Participants (Total N = 606) completed an initial survey comprising measures of past behaviour, intention, goal-directed habits, and counter-intentional habits. One week later, participants (n = 414) completed a self-reported measure of behaviour. Results: Structural equation modelling revealed that intentions significantly predicted both behaviours in both samples. Goal-directed habits predicted fruit and vegetable consumption in both samples, while counter-intentional habits only predicted the restriction of sugar-sweetened beverages in the middle-school sample. Conclusions: Current findings indicate that different types of automatic factors may play a role in explaining nutrition behaviours. Specifically, habits which were worded with an avoidance-orientation (i.e., the habit to not consume or avoid consuming) did not play a significant role in predicting future behaviour. Future research should explore the concept of avoidance-oriented habits including lay-beliefs and representations of them.
Beyond Labeled Lines: A population coding account of the Thermal Grill Illusion
Authors: Fardo Francesca , Beck Brianna , Allen Micah , FInnerup Nanna
Published: October 2019

Heat and pain illusions can be generated by simultaneous cold and warm stimulation on the skin, at temperatures that would normally be perceived as innocuous in isolation (e.g., ‘synthetic heat’ and the ‘thermal grill illusion’). Historically, two key questions have dominated the literature: Which specific pathway conveys the illusory perception of heat and pain? Where specifically does the illusory pain originate in the central nervous system? Two major theories – the addition and the disinhibition theories – have suggested distinct pathways, as well as specific spinal or supraspinal mechanisms. However, both theories fail to fully explain experimental findings on illusory heat and pain phenomena. We suggest that the disagreement between previous theories and experimental evidence can be solved by abandoning the assumption of one-to-one relations between pathways and perceived qualities. We argue that a population coding framework, based on distributed activity across non-nociceptive and nociceptive pathways, offers a more powerful explanation of illusory heat and pain. This framework offers new hypotheses regarding the neural mechanisms underlying temperature and pain perception.

Published: October 2019

This research is to measure the effect of focused and unfocused feedback on second language (L2) learners’ writing accuracy with involving gender and learners’ cultural background factors. The study applied a pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design. The participants were 128 learners at IAIN Palangka Raya, Indonesia. During the learning process, the first treatment group was treated using Focused Direct Feedback; the second treatment group was treated using Unfocused Direct Feedback, and the control group was not given any treatments or No Feedback. Data were analyzed using a three-way ANOVA analyses. The analysis confirmed that the focused direct of feedback gave a facilitative effect on the learners’ writing accuracy. In terms of gender, the learners' writing accuracy differed significantly different between males and female. In terms of cultural background, the learners’ writing accuracy did not differ significantly among each ethnics. There were no differences significantly on the learners’ writing accuracy caused by gender and the types of corrective feedback factors. There were no differences significantly on the learners’ writing accuracy caused by cultural background and types of corrective feedback factors. There were no differences significantly on the learners’ writing accuracy caused by gender and cultural background factors. There were no differences significantly on the learners’ writing accuracy caused by gender, cultural background the types of corrective feedback factors. To conclude, it was noted that gender and different types of feedback had a vital thing in increasing learners’ writing accuracy. Corrective feedback was important for both the teachers and learners in L2 writing class.

Reconceptualising the Governance of Migration Policy in Australia
Authors: Jones Stephen
Published: October 2019

This article offers a comprehensive assessment of the current trends in the governance arrangements of migrant settlement policy in Australia. It outlines the context of migrant policy as an important element of nation building and in contributing to the most multicultural society in the OECD. While immigration remains popular with the majority of Australians it is not without challenges in terms of coordination between levels of government to achieve effective outcomes. The lessons from Australia have relevance for other multilevel systems in terms of the need for cooperative approaches that combine top down and bottom up contributions from government agencies at all levels and non-government organisations. The article provides an analysis of governance issues from the perspective of the major stakeholders. The key question addressed in this paper is; what are the key challenges and opportunities of establishing cooperative approaches to immigration policy in a multilevel system? Issues involved in a potential transition of Australia’s immigration policy from a centralist approach to a more cooperative approach will be examined through the lens of a framework of analysis that consists of three scenarios for the structure of immigration policy: the centralist, the cooperative and the asymmetric scenarios.
Local Self-Governments in Dealing with Mass Migrations and Integration of Migrants in Hungary
Authors: Temesi István
Published: October 2019

In Hungary migration is an issue almost exclusively and entirely managed by the central government through its agencies. The policy on migration and its implementation are decisively handled by the government. The legal background is arranged through legislation that serves political purposes: a coherent system of new legislative acts and decrees were passed, and others were modified. The implementation of this disposition is realized by authorities directly controlled by the government, including the decisions made on requests for asylum, other types of recognition, or for subsidies. In this centralized system, not much is left to do for local self-governments. Legislation deprived local self-governments of the possible instruments that would serve the management of migration. The decision makers of local self-governments are strongly influenced by the central political guidelines, as well as by the local population. Thus, the issue of supporting the integration of migrants by Hungarian local self-governments is very difficult to examine.
The Use of Military Forces in the Protection of the Borders and Prevention of Irregular Migrations in Selected South East European Countries
Authors: Sadrić Benjamin
Published: October 2019

The 2015 refugee crisis in Europe was a humanitarian, legal, and logistical cri sis. New circumstances gave rise to ideas of calling upon armies to serve at bor ders. This paper analyses all the elements of the refugee crisis that could serve to legitimise or oppose the use of military forces in the protection of state borders. Governments’ international obligations to protect refugees and providing security for their citizens came into conflict during the crisis. In an age of terrorist threats, the roles of the police and the military are shifting in an unknown direction, yet these international obligations remain. The refugee crisis challenged not only international law but also European Union policies and ethical principles. The possible solutions were either to ac cept all refugees or to close the borders entirely and somewhere in between these opposing solutions the army was considered as a tool. Many have emphasized that there is no place for military personnel at state borders regardless of refugee inflow. Hence, this paper examines the arguments for a “military ban”. Furthermore, a thorough analysis follows on the legal and logistical legitimacy of army usage at borders. At the end, Hungarian, Slovenian, and Croatian legislation are discussed and compared with a view to problems that could arise from the differences in the legislation regarding possible future migration and refugee inflows.

Geochronology of the southern margin of the Bighorn Batholith, Wyoming
Authors: Malone John , Malone David , Gifford Jennifer , Craddock John , Arkle Jeanette , Wolf Michael
Published: October 2019

The Bighorn Mountains in north-central Wyoming reveal one of the largest exposures of 2800 Ma to 3000 Ma rocks in Laurentia. The northern part of the crystalline core is composed of the composite Bighorn batholith, whereas the central and southern areas of the range expose older gneiss complexes as well as minor supracrustal rocks. We provide new high-resolution LA-ICPMS U-Pb data on zircons sampled from eleven samples of tonalite, granodiorite, mylonite, and migmatite from the southern margin of the Bighorn batholith in the headwaters of the north fork of Paint Rock Creek. These rocks range from strongly foliated to massive and are difficult to subdivide into mappable units in the field because of their lithologic and structural similarities. Several cross-cutting mylonite zones (<10-meter-wide) that trend ~N70°E-N80E and dip steeply are present in the study area. Three distinct age populations are evident: ~2930-2940 Ma, 2905-2915 Ma, and 2880-2890 Ma. Several samples contain xenocrystic zircons >3000 Ma, ranging to 3500 Ma, which indicates assimilation of older crust. Each of the three age populations reported here are older than the previously reported age of ~2850 Ma age for the northern Bighorn Batholith but within the 2890 Ma, 2940 Ma, and 2950 Ma age groupings previously reported for the southern gneiss terrane. Three conclusions can be drawn from these data. First, the Bighorn batholith, at least along the southern margin, contains phases at least 80 million years older than the northern phase of the body, and emplacement was protracted and occurred over a ~100 Ma period. Second, episodes of both intrusion and shearing took place in this area as the various phases of the Bighorn batholith were emplaced. Finally, the existence of inherited zircons within the Bighorn batholith in the age range of ~3.0 Ga to 3.5 Ga indicates that the Bighorn batholith intruded through older crust. This older crust is perhaps a northern extension of Sacawee block in the northern Granite Mountains of central Wyoming, which may underlie the Bighorn Mountains.
EXPERIENCE WITH THE USE OF NONINVASIVE VENTILATION IN CANCER PATIENTS AFTER LOBECTOMY
Authors: Krasnoselskyi N. V. , Krutko E. N. , Yurchenko O. N. , Halushko О. А.
Published: October 2019

With the appearance of the modern devices for noninvasive ventilation (NIAVL) in our country, the interest to this issue has increased even more, because the use of a simple, atraumatic method of ventilation allows to avoid intubation and of invasive mechanical ventilation through an endotracheal tube with their complications for some patients. The purpose of the study was to investigate the effectiveness and indications for the use of noninvasive ventilation in cancer patients which underwent surgical operations on the thoracic organs. Since 2013, 34 patients who underwent surgical treatment on the thoracic organs have been examined. Patients were divided into two groups. The first group included patients (n = 24), which received noninvasive lung ventilation (NIAVL) in the early postoperative period. The second group consisted of patients (n = 10) that were treated according to the local protocol. The use of NIAVL in patients that were operated on the chest organs proved to be effective as it improved hemodynamics and blood gases balance and it can prevent the development of respiratory failure.
The role of herpesviruses 6 and 7 in the development of chronic fatigue syndrome: a review of literature and description of clinical cases

Published: October 2019

At the issue represented the etiopathogenesis of the chronic fatigue syndrome of (CFS) with immune dysfunction. Many doctors consider this problem only from the point of view of non-psychological disorders requiring only psycho-correction and non-drug treatment. However, syndromocomplex of CFS includes not only neuropsychiatric disorders, but also fibromyalgia syndrome, unexplained genesis, lymphadenopathy, non-specific polyarthralgias. It is also controversial about the feasibility of treating type 6 herpesviruses and type 7 viruses. Some authors consider the need for antiviral therapy only when reactivating the herpesvirus infection, in the transplantation of organs and tissues. However, for frequent HHV-7 and HHV-6 viremia remains resistant to ganciclovir, unlike CMV and EBV, which is successfully controlled by viremia.

Published: October 2019

OBJECTIVE

Lead placement for deep brain stimulation (DBS) using intraoperative MRI (iMRI) relies solely on real-time intraoperative neuroimaging to guide electrode placement, without microelectrode recording (MER) or electrical stimulation. There is limited information, however, on outcomes after iMRI-guided DBS for dystonia. The authors evaluated clinical outcomes and targeting accuracy in patients with dystonia who underwent lead placement using an iMRI targeting platform.

METHODS

Patients with dystonia undergoing iMRI-guided lead placement in the globus pallidus pars internus (GPi) were identified. Patients with a prior ablative or MER-guided procedure were excluded from clinical outcomes analysis. Burke-Fahn-Marsden Dystonia Rating Scale (BFMDRS) scores and Toronto Western Spasmodic Torticollis Rating Scale (TWSTRS) scores were assessed preoperatively and at 6 and 12 months postoperatively. Other measures analyzed include lead accuracy, complications/adverse events, and stimulation parameters.

RESULTS

A total of 60 leads were implanted in 30 patients. Stereotactic lead accuracy in the axial plane was 0.93 ± 0.12 mm from the intended target. Nineteen patients (idiopathic focal, n = 7; idiopathic segmental, n = 5; DYT1, n = 1; tardive, n = 2; other secondary, n = 4) were included in clinical outcomes analysis. The mean improvement in BFMDRS score was 51.9% ± 9.7% at 6 months and 63.4% ± 8.0% at 1 year. TWSTRS scores in patients with predominant cervical dystonia (n = 13) improved by 53.3% ± 10.5% at 6 months and 67.6% ± 9.0% at 1 year. Serious complications occurred in 6 patients (20%), involving 8 of 60 implanted leads (13.3%). The rate of serious complications across all patients undergoing iMRI-guided DBS at the authors’ institution was further reviewed, including an additional 53 patients undergoing GPi-DBS for Parkinson disease. In this expanded cohort, serious complications occurred in 11 patients (13.3%) involving 15 leads (10.1%).

CONCLUSIONS

Intraoperative MRI–guided lead placement in patients with dystonia showed improvement in clinical outcomes comparable to previously reported results using awake MER-guided lead placement. The accuracy of lead placement was high, and the procedure was well tolerated in the majority of patients. However, a number of patients experienced serious adverse events that were attributable to the introduction of a novel technique into a busy neurosurgical practice, and which led to the revision of protocols, product inserts, and on-site training.
Racial phenotypes in moyamoya disease: a comparative analysis of clinical presentation and natural history in a single multiethnic cohort of 250 hemispheres

Published: October 2019

OBJECTIVE

The authors aimed to determine whether differences exist in presentation and natural history when comparing Asian patients with moyamoya disease (MMD) to those of other ethnicities in North America.

METHODS

A database of 137 patients with MMD presenting to their institution between 1994 and 2015 was reviewed. Baseline characteristics and outcome variables, including stroke and functional outcome, were compared between Asian and non-Asian patients. Unadjusted Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and adjusted Cox regression models were used to compare stroke-free survival and stroke hazard after diagnosis among hemispheres of both racial groups. The analysis was stratified by age group, and censoring was performed until last follow-up or at the time of surgery. Because the relative rate of stroke changed between Asian and non-Asian adults after 1.5 years of follow-up, a time-segmented analysis focusing on the period 1.5 years after diagnosis was performed.

RESULTS

The cohort comprised 23% (31/137) Asian and 77% (106/137) non-Asian patients with MMD with a bimodal age distribution. Non-Asian patients had a higher prevalence of increased BMI (p = 0.02) and smoking (p = 0.04). Among patients who presented with stroke (n = 90), hemorrhage was significantly more common among Asians (p = 0.02). The natural history analysis included 250 hemispheres: 67 pediatric and 183 adult hemispheres. The overall mean follow-up duration since diagnosis was 3.3 years. Among adults, Asian patients had a higher incidence of stroke (8.0 per 100 person-years vs 3.0 per 100 person-years) over a mean follow-up of 3.3 years, but results were not statistically significant (p = 0.45). In the period beginning 1.5 years after diagnosis, Asian adults had a significantly higher hazard of stroke over a mean follow-up of 7.7 years, while controlling for sex, hypertension, and stroke before diagnosis (hazard ratio 8.8, p = 0.02). Among pediatric patients, Asians also had a higher stroke incidence (10.0 per 100 person-years vs 3.5 per 100 person-years) over a mean follow-up of 3.2 years; however, results did not reach statistical significance (p = 0.40). Functional outcome was similar between both ethnic groups at last follow-up (p = 0.57).

CONCLUSIONS

This study suggests a comparatively more progressive course of MMD in Asians. Further studies are required to fully characterize the phenotypic distinctions between different races and underlying pathophysiological mechanisms.

OBJECTIVE

In-stent restenosis after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting (PTAS) due to neointimal hyperplasia is a potential cause of clinical complications, including repeated revascularization and ischemic events. Neointimal hyperplasia induced by an inflammatory response to the stent strut may be a possible mechanism of in-stent restenosis. Intravenous infusion of bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has been reported to show therapeutic efficacy for cerebral stroke, presumably by an antiinflammatory effect. This study aimed to determine whether MSCs can reduce or prevent neointimal hyperplasia induced by an endovascular stent.

METHODS

In this study, two types of bare metal stents were deployed using a porcine (mini-pig) model. One stent was implanted in the common carotid artery (CCA), which is considered quite similar to the human CCA, and the other was inserted in the superficial cervical artery (SCA), which is similar in size to the human middle cerebral artery. Angiographic images, intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging, and microscopic images were used for analysis.

RESULTS

Angiographic images and IVUS studies revealed that intravenous infusion of MSCs immediately after deployment of stents prevented in-stent stenosis of the CCA and SCA. Histological analysis also confirmed that inflammatory responses around the stent struts were reduced in both the stented CCA and SCA in the mini-pig.

CONCLUSIONS

Intravenous infusion of MSCs inhibited the inflammatory reaction to an implanted stent strut, and prevented progressive neointimal hyperplasia in the stented CCA and SCA in a porcine model. Thus, MSC treatment could attenuate the recurrence of cerebral ischemic events after stenting.

Teknologi terbaru yang dapat diterapkan untuk identifikasi yaitu Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) yang merupakan sistem identifikasi tanpa kabel bisa melakukan pengambilan data dengan cepat, mudah tanpa harus bersentuhan dan dapat digunakan untuk operasi otomatis. Sistem RFID terdiri dari tag, pembaca, middleware, aplikasi program dan server. Seiringin perkembangannya muncul juga teknologi pilihan lain yaitu QR Code atau Quick Respon Code dalam mengatasi masalah identifikasi data menjadi efektif dan cepat. Untuk mengakses informasi QR Code berbeda dengan teknologi RFID yang membutuhan perangkat khusus atau reader  sebagai pembaca tag melainkan sangat mudah hanya membutuhkan perangkat camera atau webcam kemudian difokuskan QR Code pada kamera dan akan langsung terbaca dengan cepat. Saat ini dalam mengidentifikasi data medis masih dilakukan secara konvensional yaitu mengetik nomor ID dengan keyboard maka ada kemungkinan terjadi kesalahan dan membutuhkan waktu yang lama sehingga tidak efesien, untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut menggunakan RFID dan QR Code adalah solusi yang tepat, dengan RFID dan QR Code hanya cukup menempelkan pada RFID reader selanjutnya kode akan dilakukan pecarian langsung secara otomatis. Manfaat yang diperoleh pada penelitian ini adalah mengetahui perbandingan RFID dan QR Code melakukan pencarian data medis, dan dapat mengidentifikasi pencarian data medis dengan lebih mudah, cepat dan akurat.

Bicycles, scooters, Segways, skateboards, and more are placing new demands on urban streets in big cities. These modes, termed ”little vehicles” (LVs) here, share common characteristics. This research leverages the 2017 National Household Travel Survey to understand and benchmark key characteristics for current users and trip characteristics of LVs. Our findings show that young men are the predominant users of these modes for a wide range of purposes, including recreational and social activities, shopping and errands, and work travel. In the biggest metro areas in the United States, three-quarters of the trips by LVs are less than 4 km (2.5 mi), and half are shorter than 2 km (1.2 mi) (median)—a distance band that is often considered too far to walk, but shorter than most trips currently taken by car.
