The application of tariff applied in handling BPJS patients references the INA- CBGs and the payment model used by BPJS Kesehatan to replace the total bill by the hospital. Hospitals receive payments based on the INA- CBGs rate, which is the average cost spent by a group of diagnoses. It is expected to improve the quality and efficiency of hospitals. The benefit of implementing INA -CBGs in JKN is the tariffs in the form of packages cover all components of hospital costs. Cost efficiency efforts must be made. That is no deficit from the applicable INA-CBGS tariff. Quality and cost control efforts are very important in the implementation of ENT specialist poly services. This study aims to analyze the demographic characteristics of the patient, the patient's diagnosis, the difference in rates between INA CBGS payments and RSIS rates, the composition of financing and the Unit Cost of ENT Polyclinics. The research type is quantitative observational with cross-sectional design. The research location is at the Surabaya Islamic Hospital with BPJS TXT data, processing in January-December 2019. The results showed, the demographic characteristics of most patients were > 50 years old, and most of them were diagnosed with minor chronic diseases. The difference between Ina-CBGS payments and RSIS rates is Rp. 60,174 which means that each patient contributes a profit of Rp. 60,174. The composition of the financing for implementation of the ENT Polyclinic is the cost of consulting services. The unit cost of ENT Polyclinic patients is Rp. 132,774 per patient.

Diabetes Mellitus type II (DT2) is a disorder of insulin function (insulin resistance) caused by 2 factors, i.e. environmental and genetic factors. Previous studies have identified the presence of specific alleles that differentiate between DT2 and non-DT2 sufferers. Identification of the allele indicated leucine rich repeats and guanylate kinase domain containing (LRGUK) gene. The aim of this research was to design a specific primer to amplify LRGUK gene. The primer design was based on a 576 bp nucleotide base and added 100 bp in the 5'  and 100 bp in the 3' direction using NCBI-Primer BLAST. The primers produced were selected based on eight criteria’s. The results were validated with 6 samples of DT2 patients and visualized using agarose gel. The results of the analysis showed that the primers Forward 5'-TCCTACTCTGTGTCCTTCCTTG-3' and Reverse 5'-GTGGTGACAAGGAGG TTTGC-3' were able to amplify specifically with a length of 687 bp.

Uluslararası Dostluk Çerçevesinde Türkiye-İran İlişkileri: Mustafa Kemal Atatürk ve Rıza Şah Pehlevi
Authors: ELHAN Nail , KARAOĞLU Orhan
Published: December 2022

Uluslararası İlişkilerde devletler arasındaki dostluk sıklıkla çıkarlar etrafında bir araya gelen, liderlerden ve duygulardan bağımsız bir alan olarak kabul görmektedir. Buna göre devletler, uluslararası politikanın temel aktörleridir ve bireyler ile duyguların devletlerin pratikleri ve kararları üzerinde herhangi bir etkileri yoktur. Diğer taraftan son dönemlerde bireylerin, liderler arasındaki ilişkilerin ve duyguların da uluslararası ilişkiler çalışmalarında birer analiz birimi olarak ele alınabileceği savını savunan yeni yaklaşımlar ortaya çıkmaktadır. Uluslararası dostluk, bu yaklaşımlardan biridir. Uluslararası dostluk yaklaşımına göre aktörlerin uluslararası politikada çıkarlarının ötesine geçerek bir dostluk ilişkisi yaratmaları mümkündür. Bu ilişkinin ortaya çıkmasında ise en temel faktörler liderler, onların duygusal yaklaşımları ve onların arasındaki ilişkilerdir. Bu çalışma, uluslararası dostluk yaklaşımından hareketle Atatürk ve Rıza Şah dönemlerini içeren 1923-1938 yılları arası Türkiye-İran ilişkilerini ele alacaktır. Çalışmada arşiv belgeleri de kullanılarak söz konusu dönemdeki iki ülke ilişkilerinin Atatürk ve Rıza Şah arasında gelişen ilişkiler çerçevesinde uluslararası dostluk kapsamında değerlendirilebileceği üzerinde durulacaktır. Çalışma bu bağlamda iki iddia üzerinde bina edilecektir. Bunlardan ilki, uluslararası dostluğun uluslararası ilişkilerde bir analiz birimi olarak kullanılabileceğidir. İkincisi ise Türkiye-İran ilişkilerinin Atatürk ve Rıza Şah’ın liderliğindeki dönemlerde dostluk çerçevesinde değerlendirilebileceğidir. Çalışma, arşiv belgelerini de kullanarak bu iddiasını temellendirecektir. Bu kapsamda Türkiye-İran ilişkileri literatürüne yeni bir çerçeveden bakıyor olması hasebiyle literatüre katkıda bulunma iddiasındadır.

Authors: ÇETİN Merve
Published: December 2022

Göç etmeye karar vermiş bireylerin ya da toplumların önceki göçerlerden bilgi alması, irtibata geçmesi, göç süreci ve sonrasında da çeşitli ilişki ağları kurması göçmenlerin yaşayacağı bir takım risklerden kaçınmayı ve maliyetleri azaltmayı sağlar. Her göçmen toplumu gibi İranlı mültecilerin de benzer süreçleri yaşadığı açıktır. İran İslam Cumhuriyeti’nin uygulamış olduğu politikalardan etkilenen halk göç yolunu tercih etmektedir. Türkiye’nin transit ülke olduğu İran göç hareketinde, Türkiye’nin göç politikaları çerçevesinde belirlenen ve transit mültecilerin yerleştirildiği uydu kentlerden biri de Denizli’dir. Fakat Birleşmiş Milletler’in ve diğer ülkelerin değişen göç politikaları nedeniyle İranlı göçmenler üçüncü ülkelere gidememiş ve Denizli’de arafta kalmışlardır. Öte yandan son dönemde yaşanan göçler Türkiye’ye yerleşme niyetiyle de gerçekleşmektedir. Söz konusu kaotik durum Denizli’de toplumsal uyum süreci yaşamayı, uzun yıllar barınmayı ve kent içerisinde bir alt nüfus oluşturmayı beraberinde getirmiştir. Bu çalışma Denizli’de barınarak heterojen içeriklere sahip bir alt nüfus oluşturan İranlı mültecilerin göç öncesi, göç süreci ve göç sonrası toplumsal uyum süreçlerinde sahip oldukları ve işe koştukları sosyal sermayelerinin ve ilişki ağlarının neler olduğunu ortaya koymayı hedefleyen bir çalışmadır. Bu amaçla nitel araştırma yöntemi kullanılmış, yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşme formu aracılığıyla, toplamda kartopu örnekleme yoluyla ulaşılan 14 İranlı ile derinlemesine görüşmeler yapılarak veriler toplanmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda; Denizli’ye uzun yıllar önce göç eden İranlılarla son dönemde göç eden İranlıların sahip olduğu sosyal sermaye ve ilişki ağlarındaki farklılıkların varlığı tespit edilmiş ve bu farkların toplumsal uyum sürecini etkilediği ortaya konulmuştur.
Exploring the decomposition of epics using natural language processing
Authors: Seitlheko Bokang , Mwansa Laban
Published: December 2022

Agile user requirements are typically givens as user stories written using natural language and they come in different forms. The most complex form of stories to work with are epics. If epics are poorly understood, they can contribute to threats regarding the sprints or projects becoming behind schedule. It can be attributed to the epic's complexity. The research aimed to explore and attempt the use of Stanza from the Stanford NLP group in the decomposition of epics by creating a text generative model. We have also utilised the chunking technique to formulate the tasks from the generated user stories by identifying the linguistic structure through the aid of a POS tagger. The obtained results illustrate that the stanza can be utilised in the requirements engineering domain such as Sprint backlog grooming. The benefits of this research work are enormous considering that sprint backlog grooming takes considerable time and is always in iterative mode. Agile teams will also benefit from this work by efficiently using sprint timeboxes with minimal sprint planning effort. This will enable agile teams to spend more time delivering the right solutions with reduced sprint planning time and effort.

Published: December 2022

The experiment was carried out in the south-west region of Bangladesh to understand the general goat husbandry practices and the socioeconomic significance of goat farmers. Through a face-to-face interview with these rural farmers, information was collected from a total of 100 goat farmers at random in five Upazila in the Kustia district. The majority of the farmers were illiterate and middle-class, and their main source of income was agriculture. In this region, 14% of farmers involved in goat rearing mostly raised Black Bengal goats (84%) and crossbred goats (9%). Both buck and doe were reared by 67% of the farmers. Most of the farmers (92%) practiced a semi-intensive rearing system. Among the farmers, 88% did not use bamboo or wooden platform inside houses. The farmers fed their goats green grass, green grass with straw and green grass with concentrates at 70%, 11%, and 19%, respectively. Only Napier Pakchong (43%) and German (22%) fodders were cultivated whereas 92% of farmers practiced no methods. On rainy days, the goats were nourished mostly on tree leaves and 93% of farmers did not practice their goats a winter bath. Most of the goats in the study areas were affected by pneumonia (59%) and PPR (24%) with pneumonia having a high mortality rate (28%). A good portion (87.67%) of farmers practiced vaccination against PPR. The burial method for disposal of carcasses was followed by 96% of farmers. Most of the farmers (92%) gave the anthelmintic drug to deworm their goats. These results suggested that proper training is essential for better rearing and management of goats.

By combining IoT devices, such as fire alarm systems (smoke and high-temperature sensors), sensors, and other supplementary equipment, the research paper offers the "IOT based Fire Alerting Smart System" in smart buildings. The research article proposes the "IOT based Fire Alerting Smart System" in smart buildings by merging IOT devices such as fire alarm systems (smoke burn with high-temperature sensors), sensors, and other auxiliary equipment. That notification includes the time and location of fire occurs.  Comparing two existing smart IoT-based fire warning systems from around the world.  The Internet of Things is designed to provide organisations and individuals more visibility, and it now has the ability to govern 99 percent of available surroundings and objects that aren't connected to the Internet. Thus, IOT will be able to accomplish more meaningful work at a higher level by creating opportunities for individuals and businesses so that they can engage more with the outside world more than ever. Old fire alarm systems include many different types of devices that play a particular role in the workings of the system, detecting a person and detecting and wearing out a person through visual and auditory devices in the event of fire, smoke, monoxide carbon or others emergency. These types of alarms can be actuated by manual focus or manual fire alarms, such as suction stations, and can be activated automatically on smoke and heat detectors. The alarm can come with an electric chime. A horn or wall speaker can be a bright tone for a speaker that sounds an alarm; for example, you can add an audio evacuation message to warn you about using the elevator and other warning messages to users.

Published: December 2022

The world has moved from fossil fuels to renewable energy resources due to adverse environmental impacts, limited sources, and economic issues. It is not necessary that renewable energy sources have always led to many advantages but have drawbacks like weather dependency, unreliability, storage problems, and upfront costs. This study focuses on one of the major types of RES solar PV systems. The data is used from the specification of solar modules at Sukkur IBA University Sindh Pakistan. Solar photovoltaic output depends upon the weather conditions which vary from time to time resulting in variation in irradiance, temperature, power, and efficiency. This paper aims to observe the effects of the temperature ranging from 1 to 55°c on the efficiency of the monocrystalline photovoltaic module using MATLAB/Simulink. The performance parameters could be Open Circuit Voltage (VOC), Short Circuit Current (ISC), Maximum Power Point Current (IMP), Maximum Power Point Voltages (VMP), Fill Factor (FF), and Efficiency (η). Results from the simulation show that the estimated variation of silicon solar cell parameters such as VOC, IMP, series resistance, FF, and η decrease frequently with increasing temperature. And some parameters such as ISC, IMP, and temperature of the panel increase with rising ambient temperature.World has moved from fossil fuels to renewable energy resources due to adverse environmental impacts, limited sources, and economic issues.

Static Pakistani Sign Language Classification using Support Vector Machine
Authors: Mirza Shaheer , Munaf Sheikh Muhammad , Ali Shahid , Asif Muhammad
Published: December 2022

In this study, a system is proposed that uses the Support Vector Machine (SVM) technique with Bag-of-Words (BoW) and recognizes static Pakistani Sign Language (PSL) alphabets. The application of the BoW technique with SVM, on a PSL images' dataset, has not been performed previously. Similarly, no publicly available dataset for PSL is available and previous studies have achieved a maximum classification accuracy of 91.98%. For this study, a total of 511 images are collected for 36 static PSL alphabet signs from a native signer. The Sign Language (SL) recognition system uses the collected images as input and converts them to grayscale. To segment the images, the system uses the thresholding technique and Speeded Up Robust Feature (SURF) to extract the features. The system uses K-means clustering to cluster the extracted features. To form the BoW, the system computes the Euclidean distance among SURF descriptors and clustered data. The system then uses 5-fold cross-validation to divide the codebooks obtained from the BoW into training and testing. The developed system yields an overall accuracy of 97.87% for the classification of static PSL signs at 1,500×1,500 image dimensions and 500 Bags.

Published: December 2022

The multiple access technique of the current wireless communication system depends on the orthogonal multiple access (OMA) technique. The availability of orthogonal resources is limited in OMA and cannot support the increasing demand for a large number of users and efficient use of the spectrum in the coming years. The Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is considered in the future release of 5G and beyond 5G. In NOMA, multiple users can be dealt with in the same resource block at the same time, which allows NOMA to provide large connectivity, low latency, and high spectral efficiency. In this paper, the outage probability expression for the MISO-NOMA downlink system is derived by employing an indefinite quadratic form (IQF) approach. Analytical results are compared with the Monte Carlo simulations which validate our theoretical derivations. Further, the performance of the MISO-NOMA system is assessed with different numbers of users in the system and different SNR values.

Published: December 2022

In this research paper, we design and simulate Silicon Oxycarbide (SiOC) channel waveguides and photonic passive device such as directional coupler. SiOC channel waveguides are designed for different values of width and height at shorter wavelength band that is 1310 nm wavelength window with refractive index of SiOC (ncore) =2.2 μm and SiO2 (nclad) = 1.444 μm. TE and TM fundamental mode is achieved at width = 1.5 microns and height = 0.5 microns to understand the single mode operation of SiOC channel waveguides. The minimum bending radius of SiOC waveguide is found to be 30 microns that is large enough to integrate the large scale devices. Directional coupler is designed to measure the coupling power between waveguides with gap 0.6, 0.7 and 0.8 microns that gives the 3dB coupling at 20, 40 and 100 microns. In this research, silicon oxycarbide is presented as potential material platform for the highly efficient photonic devices.

Authors: DROHOBYTSKYI Ihor
Published: December 2022

The paper outlines a way of changing thoughts on the implementation of a national army idea among the leadership of the nationalist wing of the national Resistance movement during World War II. The theoretical and ideological basis features of their military doctrine are described. In the context of the realization of the nationalist movement's defining goal at the time – getting an independent and united Ukrainian state, an analysis of opinions on the role of the armed forces is made.

Among representatives of the leadership of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (Bandera's group) were people of different, and often totally opposed positions on the issue of creating armed structures of a military type, which is emphasized. Based on a personal approach, the significant figures of that stage of development of the mentioned socio-political current in the context of their attitude to the formation of the national army are presented.

In general, traits of implementing measures aimed at creating and developing their own armed forces are defined. Features of the deployment of the armed forces under the auspices of nationalists within certain regions of western Ukraine are outlined. A connection among regional differences in the development of tactical military units is emphasized, as evidenced by the efforts of the leadership of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (Bandera’s group) to systematically approach the implementation of the national army doctrine. Chronological stages of armed structures formation under the auspices of nationalists in the form of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (Volyn) and the Ukrainian People's Self-Defense (Halychyna) are presented.

It is determined that in the current context, research in the chosen field, in particular, and creating an objective picture of the national past in general, are among the main aspects of forming a proper state position in Ukrainian society.

UKRAINIANS OR POLES? STRATEGIES FOR THE SURVIVAL OF POLES–SPECIAL SETTLERS IN THE 40–50S OF THE 20TH CENTURY IN A TOTALITARIAN STATE (According to the archives of the Head Offi ce of the Ministry of Internal Aff airs in Lviv region)
Authors: ZAITSEVA Vasylyna
Published: December 2022

Some behavioral strategies for the survival of the Polish population in Western Ukraine in the 40–50s of the 20th century were determined based on the secret documents of the Archives of the Head Office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Lviv region. It is outlined that after World War II there was a widespread tendency for Ukrainians to enroll in village councils, to conceal and reticence the Polish nationality. Features of Polish assistance to Ukrainian insurgents are revealed. The reasons for helping Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UIA) soldiers have been clarified: from coercion and family ties to personal choice. It was noted that Poles, suspected by the MGB of «gang involvement» in the UIA, were convicted as Ukrainians. The documents in which their Ukrainian nationality is written are listed. The accounting and personal files of the accused were analyzed in detail.

Previously unknown biographical episodes of Polish special settlers have been revealed. Their Polish nationality is revealed in the course of the case and accusations are made to dispel suspicions of aiding the OUN. Rehabilitation of Polish ancestry was a strategy for survival in difficult conditions. This was done to avoid deportation to special settlements in Siberia or imprisonment. Further strategies of substantiation of pre-war Polish ancestry in special settlements and their purpose are gradually traced, namely: due to Polish origin from leaving the Soviet Union to Poland, or returning home. It was noted that special settlers were forbidden to return home, but the Soviet authorities allowed them to travel to Poland only based on applications from Polish relatives, despite the documented Polish nationality. Also, the results of these strategies and the fate of special settlers are indicated.

Authors: AY Abdurrahman , KIZILKAYA Rıdvan
Published: December 2022

Çalışmada, Ordu ve Giresun illerinde fındık yetiştiriciliği yapılan bahçelerden alınan toprakların makro (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Na) ve mikro (Fe, Cu, Mn, Zn) besin elementi kapsamları belirlenmiştir. Toprakların değişebilir katyon içeriklerinin birbirleri ile ilişkilerinden hareketle Ca/Mg, Ca/K ve Mg/K oranları da hesaplanarak değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırma alanındaki, fındık bahçesi topraklarının toplam N ve değişebilir Ca ve Mg düzeylerinin yeterli, alınabilir fosfor, değişebilir potasyum içerikleri bakımından ise yetersiz olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Araştırma alanı topraklarının mikroelement düzeylerine göre, toprakların Fe içeriklerinin noksan, Cu, Zn ve Mn içeriklerinin ise, genel olarak yeterli olduğu bulunmuştur. Ayrıca, araştırma bölgesi toprakları genel olarak asidik reaksiyonlu, tuzsuz ve yeterli düzeyde organik madde içerdiği saptanmıştır. Topraklardaki değişebilir katyonların birbirleri arasındaki ilişkiler ile Ca/Mg, Ca/K ve Mg/K oranları beraberce değerlendirildiğinde, araştırma alanındaki toprakların büyük kısmının Ca ve K noksanlığı riski ile karşı karşıya kaldığı belirlenmiştir. Bu amaçla, Bölgedeki asit reaksiyonlu toprakların yönetiminde, topraktan kireçleme yapılarak hem asitliğin giderilmesinin sağlanması hem de bitkinin ihtiyaç duyduğu kalsiyumun topraklara verilmesi açısından önemli olacaktır. Bununla beraber, sürdürülebilir toprak yönetimi ile fındık üretimi açısından topraktan ve yapraktan yapılacak gübreleme programlarında, topraktan yapılan NPK gübrelemesine ilave olarak yapraktan gübreleme uygulamalarına eksikliği bulunan Ca, Mg, Fe gibi besin maddelerinin de ilave edilmesi gerekmektedir.

The followings were analyzed: first, the percentage of articles describing the study design in the title, abstracts, or methods; second, the portion of articles describing reporting guidelines; third, the types of study design and corresponding reporting guidelines; and fourth, the suggestion of a more suitable study design based on the study design algorithm for medical literature on interventions, systematic reviews & other review types, and epidemiological studies overview.Results: Out of 45 articles, 44 described study designs (97.8%). Out of 44, 19 articles were suggested to be described with more suitable study designs, which mainly occurred in before-and-after studies, diagnostic research, and non-randomized trials. Of the 18 reporting guidelines mentioned, 8 (44.4%) were considered perfect. STROBE (Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology) was used for descriptive studies, before-and-after studies, and randomized controlled trials; however, its use should be reconsidered.Conclusion: Some declarations of study design and reporting guidelines were suggested to be described with more suitable ones. Education and training on study design and reporting guidelines for researchers are needed, and reporting guideline policies for descriptive studies should also be implemented.

Many vehicle accidents were recorded because of the drowsiness or emotional instability of the drivers. There are many fatal cases and minor cases are being recorded every day and these numbers are on a gradual increase. Some vehicle manufacturers design several safety measures such as air bags, powerful roll cages, automated braking systems to mitigate the damage of the accidents. But always prevention is better than cure. There are occasions which accidents occur due to the malfunction of the vehicle, but most of the accidents are because of the human errors done by the driver. And these human errors can be happened by the driver inside the vehicle or any driver who is driving on the road. There can be a chance of preventing such accidents if the danger could be communicated earlier to the driver. Therefore, not only detecting the current state of the driver but also communicate such a situation to nearby vehicles is very important. The proposed solution of this report is a hardware-based system which explore the ability to detect the drowsiness of the driver using image processing technologies to prevent vehicle accidents by alarming the driver and as well as communicating the danger to the nearby vehicle using light fidelity technology.
Debilidad institucional y atención al desplazamiento forzado en México: El caso de Chiapas
Authors: Díaz Vanegas Itzamara , Monsiváis Carrillo Alejandro
Published: December 2022

In recent years, several regions in Mexico are confronting a humanitarian crisis produced by rising numbers of internally displaced people. Some subnational governments have approved innovative legislation on internal displacement due to a lack of regulation at a national level, expecting to provide a solution to such a critical problem. In this article, we analyze the legislation approved in Chiapas. We draw on institutional strength theory to argue that the political process in Chiapas delivered a weak, “aspirational” institution. Far from creating substantive change on this matter, it has only generated assistance-driven actions. This research shows that, despite remarkable legislation, governmental assistance to internally displaced people is still hindered by diverging political interests and weak state capacity.
