Published: January 2024

Tekanan darah tinggi atau hipertensi masih menjadi masalah dengan tingkat morbiditas dan mortalitas yang cukup tinggi. Menurut data Riset Kesehatan Dasar (Riskesdas) Indonesia prevalensi penderita hipertensi pada tahun 2013 sebesar 25,8% kemudian mengalami peningkatan pada tahun 2018 menjadi 34,1% pada penduduk usia ≥18 tahun.Tekanan darah dapat dikendalikan dengan cara mengatur gaya hidup dan menerapkan pola makan Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH). DASH adalah rencana makan untuk mengurangi atau mengendalikan tekanan darah tinggi yang berfokus pada makanan rendah sodium serta makanan yang kaya magnesium, potasium, kalsium dan nutrisi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis tingkat pengetahuan tentang DASH dengan tingkat kepatuhan terhadap diet. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode Literature Review dengan menggunakan analisis deskriptif naratif. Dalam penelusuran artikel menggunakan metode PRISMA melalui database Google Schoolar, ScienceDirect dan PubMed. Hasil literature review dari 17 artikel menunjukan bahwa pengetahuan tentang diet DASH secara efektif bisa didapatkan melalui video pembelajaran grup WhatsApp, media audiovisual (gambar dan suara), edukasi berbasis keluarga dan konseling gizi. Sedangkan kepatuhan terhadap diet dapat ditingkatkan melalui pemberian video edukasi, pesan DASH-like diet melalui WhatsApp, pendidikan kesehatan secara langsung, program pelatihan mindfulness, dan menerapkan metode Transtheoretical model (TTM). Tingginya tingkat pengetahuan tentang diet DASH dapat meningkatkan kepatuhan terhadap diet hipertensi. Selain itu, pengetahuan tentang diet DASH dan diikuti dengan peningkatan konsumsi makanan yang teratur dapat meningkatkan kepatuhan dalam mengikuti diet.

Innovation, a necessity for organizations to get competitive advantage and business perennity
Authors: Lemos Lelles de Paula
Published: January 2024

Innovation is extremely important for organizations to prosper in the current market, but achieving success using innovation may not be such a simple task, as each organization needs a different form of innovation given its specificity and the objective it intends to achieve. One way to identify the best way to innovate for an organization is through the Value Proposition Canvas, because through it it will be possible to draw the profile of customers, understanding their pain points, in order to satisfy their needs. Thus, organizations can innovate through the aspects of products and services, value proposition, processes, marketing, organizational, among others. However, this is just the beginning of the innovative process, as innovation must be understood and incorporated by everyone in the organization, a very important factor for its operation. In this way, it is necessary to install the innovation mentality within the organization, stimulating creativity, allowing failures to obtain improvements, and promoting a collaborative environment. Using flexibility, training knowledge, and recognizing the accomplishments of employees will be essential to create a culture of innovation, thus providing competitive advantage and business continuity. This paper aims to highlight the need for innovation in organizations, identifying in which areas innovation can occur to obtain competitive advantage and business continuity, how to install an innovation mindset within organizations, noting which resources and practices are used to create this culture of innovation, and understanding its concepts and importance.

Authors: Braga Daniela , Setti Amanda , Morishima Christina , Iaconelli Assumpto , Borges Edson
Published: January 2024

Objective

To study if there are any effects of follicular output rate (FORT) and follicle to oocyte index (FOI) on embryos morphokinetics.

Study design

Kinetic data of 8,376 embryos, cultured in a time-lapse imaging incubator, derived from 2,470 patients undergoing ICSI cycles were analysed. Embryos were split into groups according to FOI value: Low FOI (n=247 cycles and 894 embryos) and High FOI (n=2,223 cycles and 7,482 embryos) and according to the FORT value: Low FORT (n= 753 cycle and 2,556 embryos), Medium FORT (n=874 cycles and 2,970 embryos), and High FORT (n=843 cycles and 2,850 embryos). Morphokinetic data were compared among the groups.

Results

Embryos derived from cycles with a low FOI presented slower development, a significantly lower KID score D5, blastocyst formation, and implantation rates when compared with those from cycles with high FOI. For the FORT, an increased time to complete morphokinetic events, significantly lower rates of blastocyst formation and implantation was observed among embryos derived from cycles with low FORT, followed by those with medium FORT, while embryos derived from cycles with high FORT presented a better development competence. However, no significant differences were noted in clinical pregnancy, miscarriage, or livebirth rates when the low, medium, and high FORT groups were compared.

Conclusion

FORT and FOI correlate with faster embryo development and may be a valuable approach to predict embryo developmental potential.
TRANSFER OF LOADS FROM THREE HETEROGENEOUS ELASTIC STRINGERS TO AN INFINITE SHEET THROUGH ADHESIVE LAYERS
Authors: Kerobyan Agasi V. , Sahakyan Karen P.
Published: January 2024

This paper considers the problem for an elastic infinite plate (sheet), which on parallel finite parts of its upper surface is strengthened by three finite stringers, two of which are located on the same line, having different elastic properties. The stringers are deformed under the action of horizontal forces. The interaction between infinite sheet and stringers takes place through thin elastic adhesive layers having other physical-mechanical properties and geometric configuration. The problem of determining unknown shear stresses acting between the infinite sheet and stringers is reduced to a system of Fredholm integral equations of second kind with respect to unknown functions, which are specified on three finite intervals. It is shown that in the certain domain of the change of the characteristic parameters of the problem this system of integral equations can be solved by the method of successive approximations. Particular cases are considered, the character and behaviour of unknown shear stresses are investigated. Further, for various values of changing characteristic parameters of the problem the multiple numerical results and its analysis are presented.

The Impact of Teaching and Learning of Chemistry of Acids and Bases in the Context of SDG 6 on Water Quality and Sanitation
Authors: Chisanga Musonda , Shumba Overson , Hayumbu Patrick , Mupeta Sydney
Published: January 2024

Purpose: Research has shown that incorporating social-scientific issues and societal concerns in the teaching and learning of STEM subjects, such as Chemistry, can enhance their relevance and appeal to learners. However, STEM experiences often fail to connect with learners' experiences and societal issues.

Materials and Methods: To address this, a study was conducted with grade 11 learners (n=60) at a secondary school in Kasama town, northern Zambia. The study explored the impact of teaching acids and bases in the context of SDG6 on water quality and sanitation, using the REACT teaching model (Relating, Experiencing, Application, Cooperation, and Transferring).

Findings: Results showed that the experimental group (n=30) performed significantly better than the control group (M experiment =67.07, S= 13.09, M control = 45.87, S=11.73, t (df =58, two-tailed =6.05, p < 0.05). The gains from pre-test to post-test were significant in the experimental group (Gain = 26.03 points, t (df=29, 2-tailed) = 8.496, p < .000) and not significant in the control group (Gain = 6.17 points, t (df=29, 2-tailed) = 1.893, p = 0.068).

Implications to Theory, Practice and Policy: These results are both statistically and practically significant.
Application of machine learning to decline curve analysis (DCA) for gas-condensate production wells with complex production history due to add-on perforation of new reservoirs

Published: January 2024

For every oil and gas operator, DCA plays an essential role since it provides crucial information for production planning and reserves estimation. DCA is the analysis of the decline in production rate or pressure over time, which can be done by fitting a curve through production or pressure historical data points and making a forecast for the well based on the assumption that the same declining trend will continue in the future. However, the conventional DCA method has been shown to have some limitations. On the other hand, machine learning has been vigorously and extensively researched in the last decade; its applications can be found in every aspect of life as well as in the oil and gas industry. Therefore, it is the ideal time to study the application of machine learning to DCA, to complement this important analysis. In this case study, machine learning was used to predict the decline of wellhead pressure, thereby determining well life as well as estimating reserves. The method was applied to 2 wells with very complex production histories due to add-on perforation of new reservoirs. The prediction was verified to have high reliability by comparison with dynamic modeling results.
Geomechanics applied to the petroleum industry: Wellbore stability, sand production, and hydraulic fracturing
Authors: Nguyen Van Hung
Published: January 2024

This article introduces three applications of geomechanics in oil and gas industry, encompassing wellbore stability analysis, hydraulic fracturing, and sand production. In this paper, we reviewed three commonly used applications involving transforming stress values from the in situ coordinate system to the wellbore centric coordinate system, which have been published in the previous studies. Subsequently, various failure criteria are applied to these three geomechanical problems. First, wellbore stability analysis involves six distinct scenarios across different oil reservoirs. The results obtained enable the selection of appropriate drilling mud densities to prevent collapses and instability of wellbore. Second, regarding sand production modeling, three oil fields are presented as examples. The results consistently indicate instances of sand production under various well production conditions. Finally, the application of geomechanics in hydraulic fracturing is illustrated. The findings distinctly illustrate the evolutionary pattern of fracture dimensions, highlighting a consistent trend in fracture length development. Notably, the expansion phase of the fracture exhibits a rapid onset during the initial stages, followed by a transition into an exceedingly gradual propagation state.

The article discusses tourism concepts dedicated to developing the tourism industry in Kazakhstan. Since its independence, Kazakhstan has adopted various tourism concepts and national plans but they do not concern or care for the entirety of Kazakhstan’s territory. Despite the country’s prosperity with regards to diversity and opportunity, it is in need of institutional structure and management efficiency to optimally succeed. Kazakhstan’s tourism industry is currently responsible for over five governmental and private organizations but they exude inefficiency. These organizations have overlapping and repeating functions. Most tourism concepts failed to be executed within the established time frames. Some concepts were created by mixing cluster theory with destination management organization methods. Essentially, these prove that Kazakhstan has weak management structure, marketing and branding with an insufficiency primarily caused by a lack of effective and efficient marketing. The country proved itself to struggle to balance multiple things at once. For instance, the 2023 conception required the country to focus on 12 types of tourism simultaneously which concluded in nothing being accomplished.Therefore, the authors suggest targeting only four types of tourism including MICE tourism, cultural heritage tourism, nature-based tourism, and spiritual tourism. Furthermore, eleven strategies are introduced with tactics to develop the country’s tourism industry. As a result, this article suggests some recommendations to solve the problems associated with the development of the tourism industry.
