Authors: Riza Rahimi Bachtiar  , Ayu Purwaningtyas  , Mohamad Ilham Hilal
Published: April 2023

Banyuwangi is one of the agricultural centers in East Java Province and nationally. Especially for vegetable horticultural commodities, several products have been able to become regional superiors and are able to penetrate the national market such as chili, eggplant, and mustard greens. In addition, the productivity of vegetable horticulture has increased from year to year. One of the MSMEs engaged in horticulture is Senja Farm. Senja Farm has a specific activity in producing hydroponic vegetables. These vegetables are cultivated and are able to produce healthier vegetables because they are minimal in pesticide residues. Hydroponic vegetables are vegetables that are grown with the help of liquids containing minerals needed by vegetables to grow through a process that is highly guarded by the method and place of planting and does not require soil. The use of pesticides in hydroponic planting techniques is also not necessary to protect against insect pests. This has an impact on the yield of hydroponic plants in the form of organic food. Consumption of organic vegetables in Banyuwangi has a trend that tends to increase so it is very potential to be developed. However, the hydroponic process at Senja Farm still relies on plant media derived from livestock compost and seedling media using plastic (polybag). The purpose of this PKM is to utilize bagasse waste through the use of bio-seeding blocks as planting media and as a substitute for seedling media. The output targets of this PKM activity are in the form of products submitted to partners, publications in national journals with ISSN, publications in print media and in the form of videos of the implementation of activities.

Tofu is a food product that comes from processed products (protein coagulation process) of soybeans. This home-based tofu industry, in its processing, can produce waste, namely solid waste (soybean dregs) and liquid waste. Handling of tofu liquid waste is not only a temporary treatment but needs to be done on an ongoing basis, one of which is by making valuable agricultural products having economic value. The methods for implementing this Community Self-Reliance Activity (KKM) include debriefing, team coordination, training, Liquid Organic Fertilizer (POC) application, mentoring and monitoring. The people involved were UKM Harjasari and KWT Ceria Mandiri Kayu Manis. The results of this activity indicate that community service in the form of assistance in using liquid tofu waste as a POC product can reduce environmental pollution and increase public knowledge about the proper use of natural resources. This can be seen from the increase in general understanding and its application, with an average increase of 62.28%.

Water is a natural resource that is absolutely necessary for life and human life, as well as in the environmental management system, water is the main element. In everyday life, water is a basic need for the quality and sustainability of human life. Therefore, water must be available in sufficient quantity and quality. Fulfillment of water needs can be done by means of individual systems or communal systems (groups). PAMSIMAS (Community-Based Drinking Water and Sanitation Provision) is one of the programs implemented by the government which is implemented in rural and suburban areas which is carried out with a communal system (https://pamsimas.pu.go.id/). One of them is in Kampung Pinang Village, Perhentian Raja District, Kampar Regency in the form of assistance for clean water tanks. Prior to the existence of the reservoir from the PAMSIMAS government program, villagers used Kampar River water to meet their daily needs. Physically, Kampar river water looks brownish in color, this shows that the water is not suitable for consumption and is used for household needs. The PAMSIMAS that is being built currently uses water sources from below the ground surface which are usually used for cooking needs by the residents of Kampung Pinang Village. However, the water quality physically looks colorful. If this is still used continuously, it will greatly affect the health of the people of Kampung Pinang Village. Clean water is water that meets the requirements for a drinking water supply system, where the intended requirements are requirements in terms of water quality which include physical, chemical, biological and radiological qualities, so that when consumed it does not cause side effects (Kemenkes RI, 1990). From the results of the water quality test from the UPT Health Laboratory of the Pekanbaru City Government Health Service, it was found that for water sourced from PAMSIMAS drilled water, all test parameters met the requirements. Meanwhile, for water originating from rivers, the parameters of turbidity, color, iron, manganese, and total coliforms do not meet the requirements.

Authors: Eny Wahyuningsih  , Muhammad Ariyon  , Ellyan Sastraningsih
Published: April 2023

Household accounting is not yet popular in Indonesia due to various factors. Among them are ignorance of its uses, such as providing peace because there is no financial deficit, self-control because following the budget that has been made, and satisfaction when the decisions are made right and the realization of long-term plans as revealed by several studies conducted by scholars in Indonesia. The participants of this community service are the housewives of Bakulan Kue. Because household accounting practices can be carried out by families who already have incomes that exceed the minimum standard of living. This is caused by low income in poor households, all income will be spent on consumption. The information that we provided turned out to be something that had not been practiced by the participants, especially in terms of recording. However, some of the participants have done budgeting in a simpler way by making allocations of daily and monthly expenditures in separate posts but without recording
Oil and Gas pipelines monitoring using IoT platform
Authors: K. Yas Ahmed , Al Qassab Ammar
Published: April 2023

The early detection of pipeline breaches in the pipeline monitoring system is a crucial concern for oil management firms. Diverse technologies have been created to identify pipeline leaks. However, they need development as the current systems take a long time to detect leaks. As a result, it can contribute to oil waste and natural disasters. This paper provides a system for detecting pipeline leaks using pressure, water-flow, Accelerometer, and voltage sensors coupled to an Arduino mega microcontroller with BLYNK IoT platform real-time monitoring. It is obvious from the data that the Oil Pipe Monitoring System is capable of displaying pipeline flowrates, pressures, and acceleration. When a leak occurs or an event occurs during operation, a message is delivered to the responsible technical individual indicating which pipe is leaking. This project successfully established an Internet of Things (IoT) platform to monitor pipeline events in real-time.

Using face detection to secure places is an important application merging with machine vision. This paper reposed a system to do face detection and recognition using existing architecture google-net and transfer learning to let the network learn images based on pre-trained architecture, The design of a network leads to an architecture that leads to maximizing the accuracy of the system and accurately detecting faces that are saved to the database and specifying the effect of weights used within the nodes of the hidden layer which consider the most time-consuming task within the architecture. The main characteristics are explained and the architecture used as well as the used data set in detail with the design of a network which provides an architecture that leads to maximizing the accuracy of the system and accurately detecting faces that are saved to the database and specifying the effect of weights used within the nodes of the hidden layer which consider the most time-consuming task within the architecture. Experimental results show using epochs 10 and 100 samples imply 98.37% training accuracy whereas other numbers of epochs either provide less accuracy or consume more time, and the number of epochs and training samples can be modified according to the system requirements. Other factors like illumination, the color of the background, and face rotation or scale were discussed as impact factors.
Recognising Physical and Mental Health Issues in Neurodivergent Females: Opinion Piece
Authors: Kelly Clive , Martin Ren , Taylor Rachael
Published: April 2023

There are many different ways to experience life and interact with others. The term ‘neurodivergence’ refers to variations from what is considered typical or normal. Research and education into neurodivergent conditions in females is essential in informing a reassessment of clinicians’ present approach to those who present with multiple unexplained symptoms. Neurodivergence may influence a person’s style of communication, learning, attitudes, and behaviour, and they may experience inequity and rejection. A formal diagnosis improves access to support services and helps them and their family better understand themselves and the challenges they face. Neurodivergent females are especially prone to many physical and psychological health issues, and it is essential that clinicians learn to recognise and respond to these. This commentary highlights the relative lack of research into clinical aspects of neurodivergent conditions in females, suggesting how clinicians might increase their awareness to mutual benefit.

Background: Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCL) is a rare progressive neurodegenerative disorder caused by more than 530 mutations of at least 13 different genes (CLN 1-14). NCL is a part of the lysosomal disease characterized by the presence of neuronal and extraneural autofluorescent lipopigment accumulations that leads to motor and mental deterioration, developmental regression, seizure, vision loss, and premature death. NCL is classified into four main groups based on the different clinical manifestations and age of presentation. In this study, we aimed to report an unusual presentation of NCL with CLN6 mutation without retina involvement. Case Presentation: We reported a 10-year-old boy with mixed types of seizures, developmental delay, cognitive problems, unsteady gait, and speech disorders. Although after a thorough assessment, CLN6 mutation was diagnosed, he had all symptoms of this mutation, except the visual impairment. Conclusion: According to recent NCL case reports from Asia, full familiarity with its presentation by pediatricians and neurologists is obligatory. Children with developmental regression or refractory seizures, who also have visual or other neurological symptoms such as ataxia and other cerebellar symptoms, even at older ages, should be evaluated for NCL. Attention to ophthalmological examinations and neurological signs and confirming the diagnosis by biopsy or genetic analysis is desirable to prevent missed diagnosis.

Background: Epilepsy surgery has become a successful treatment option for patients with drug-resistant epilepsies. Objectives: This study aimed to assess temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) surgery outcome and its association with epilepsy duration, the presence of pre-surgical generalized tonic-clonic seizure (GTCS), and brain MRI findings. Materials & Methods: This retrospective study was performed from 2016 to 2020 at Loghman-Hakim Hospital, Tehran, Iran. The patients’ demographic data, epilepsy type, duration, frequency, brain image findings, the selected surgical approaches, and histopathological findings were collected. The post-operative seizure outcome was expressed one year according to the proposed International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) classification system. The independent sample t-test, chi-square, and one-way analysis of variance were applied to analyze the differences between variables in terms of quantitative and categorical data. Results: A total number of 69 TLE surgeries were enrolled in our study. No differences were found in the surgical outcome base on the ILAE classification system of patients with lesional vs non-lesional MRIs (P=0.834). In patients with mesial temporal sclerosis, no correlation was found between the surgical approaches including selective amygdalohippocampectomy, anterior temporal lobectomy, and post-operative seizure outcome (P=0.142). Seven patients (10.1%) developed post-operative functional seizures. Conclusion: In our study, the epilepsy duration and the presence of GTCSs before surgery had no effect on the surgery outcome. In patients with mesial temporal sclerosis, amygdalohippocampectomy, and anterior temporal lobectomy did not confer different surgical outcomes. TLE patients with normal MRI showed similar surgical outcomes as lesional patients. A significantly high proportion of our patients developed functional seizures, postoperatively.

Background: Mucormycosis is a rare disease with high morbidity and mortality, and its diagnosis is difficult and often delayed. Also, the disease tends to progress rapidly. Therefore, urgent surgical and medical intervention is lifesaving. Case Presentation: A 24-year-old woman with diabetes since 3 months ago presented with excessive tearing in her left eye, unilateral headache with epistaxis, and loss of consciousness at Razi Hospital, Rasht City, Iran, in June 2021. A clinical and pathologic diagnosis of mucormycosis was established. Imaging the head and paranasal sinuses revealed extensive involvement of the brain, paranasal sinuses, and left orbit. Treatment with liposomal amphotericin B (5 mg/kg) was administered for about 50 days until discharge. During the treatment period, the patient underwent several surgical procedures, such as enucleation of the left eye, surgery on soft and hard palates, sinuses, and neurosurgery for debridement of necrotizing tissues. After 50 days of intensive medical and surgical treatments, the patient was recovered and discharged. Conclusion: In the era of the COVID-19 pandemic, many diabetic patients acquire that infection. Physicians caring for these patients should be alert to mucormycosis as a complication of severe or mild COVID-19 infection. Early diagnostic and therapeutic interventions could be lifesaving for these patients.

Background: It is currently recommended to vaccinate against SARS CoV-2 for people with multiple sclerosis (MS), but it is uncertain what effect it will have on people with MS (PwMS). Objectives: We aimed to compare the side effects of the first and second doses of the Sinopharm vaccine in PwMS. Materials & Methods: This descriptive-analytical follow-up study was conducted on PwMS patients in Kermanshah province, Iran, who received the Sinopharm vaccine using the nationwide MS registry of Iran (NMSRI) by available methods between May and August 2021. Using a researcher-made questionnaire, demographic and clinical information about PwMS, as well as side effects from the Sinopharm vaccine were collected by telephone 5-14 days after the first and second doses. Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 25. Results: Study participants included 188 PwMS, including 148 females (78.7%) and 40 males (21.3%). PwMS had Median age of 42.66±11.1 years and Median 9.57±7.0 for disease duration. In the 1st dose, the prevalence of side effects was significantly higher than in the second dose (58.5% vs 47.0%, P=0.012). Fatigue (30.1%), myalgia (29.8%), fever (25.0%), and headache (22.3%) were the most common in the first dose, and fatigue (27.1%), headache (18.6%), myalgia (17.5%) and fever (14.9%) were the most common in the second dose. COVID-19 was present in 51 people (27.3%) before vaccination. Conclusion: Sinopharm vaccine side effects were significantly more prevalent in the first dose than in the second dose. Most side effects are moderate in severity and transient.

Background: Although much research on patients with epilepsy (PWE) has focused on psychiatric disorders such as depression, anxiety, and psychotic disorders, the relationship between epilepsy and personality disorders has not been frequently studied. Objectives: The study aimed to evaluate borderline personality traits in PWE. Materials & Methods: In this case-control study, we evaluated 211 PWE who were consecutively referred to 22 Bahman Hospital, Mashhad, Iran, in 2021. We also compared the patients with an age-matched and gender-matched control group. The Borderline personality traits were assessed by the second subscale of the schizotypal questionnaire (STB) which is known as the borderline personality scale questionnaire. Data were coded and analyzed by SPSS software, version 20. Results: Epilepsy group had significantly higher borderline personality features in comparison with the control group (P=0.029). PWE had significantly higher scores in hopelessness (P=0.017) and impulsivity factors (P=0.046) on the STB questionnaire. Our results revealed that PWE who were married (P=0.011) and who had epilepsy for more than 10 years, had significantly higher borderline personality traits (P=0.04). Conclusion: PWE are more likely to have borderline personality traits. Therefore, it is important to screen epileptic patients to detect it earlier to avoid further consequences and its possible effects on therapeutic responses.

Background: The intensive care unit memory (ICUM) assessment tool is a practical tool for memory monitoring after the discharge from ICU. Objectives: This psychometric study purported to validate ICUM for a sample population of Iranian patients hospitalized in ICU. Materials & Methods: This research was a descriptive-analytical study that was conducted at Ahvaz University of Medical Sciences in 2022. A total of 96 patients were selected through the convenience sampling method and were asked to complete the questionnaire 2 weeks and 8 weeks after their discharge from the hospital. Exploratory factor analysis was run to validate the tool’s structure. The reliability of the ICUM tool was checked by the testretest method and the Cronbach alpha coefficient for memory subscales. Results: To increase the qualitative face and content validity of the tool in Persian, some vague items were modified according to the suggestions of the participants, language, and nursing experts. For the quantitative face validity, the item coefficient was calculated, and the minimum score obtained was 4.4. For the quantitative content validity, the content validity ratio (CVR) and content validity index (CVI) were calculated. The minimum obtained scores were CVI=0.7 and CVR=0.6. Thus, all the items were confirmed. The implementation of the factor analysis was confirmed with KMO=0.65. The highest Cronbach alpha coefficient for delusional memory was 0.62 and the highest test-retest correlation for factual memory was 0.95. Conclusion: The Persian version of ICUM has strong test-retest reliability, but weak internal consistency reliability. It is recommended that future studies evaluate the tool’s reliability over an extended period.

Banjir merupakan permasalahan drainase yang disebabkan oleh alih fungsi lahan untuk menunjang aktivitas masyarakat. Kecamatan Cianjur memiliki 11 Desa. Berdasarkan hasil observasi 4 dari 11 Desa di Kecamatan Cianjur sering terjadi banjir.  Banjir tersebut terjadi di Desa Bojong herang Jalan Dr. Muwardi (depan Islamic Center Kabupaten Cianjur), Desa Nagrak Jalan Raya Sukabumi (Depan Taman Makam Pahlawan), Desa Sayang di Jalan Aria Cikondang (depan Lembaga Permasyarakatan Kabupaten Cianjur), Desa Sawah Gede di Jalan Syariah Kavling B’elka. Permasalahan yang terjadi disebabkan oleh tertutupnya saluran inlet oleh pasir jalan raya yang menyebabkan air limpasan hujan tidak masuk ke dalam saluran drainase, saluran drainase tidak sesuai dengan debit limpasan sehingga air dalam saluran drainase meluap dan menyebabkan terjadinya genangan dan banjir. Berdasarkan hasil perhitungan penilaian skala prioritas yang terdapat pada Peraturan Menteri Pekerjaan Umum dan Perumahan Rakyat No.12 Tahun 2014 tentang Penyelenggaraan Sistem Drainase Perkotaan, penanganan banjir prioritas pertama harus dilakukan di Desa Bojong Herang, kedua di Desa Nagrak, ketiga di Desa Sayang, dan Ke empat di Desa Sawah Gede
