The Relationship Between Fundamental Motor Skills and Physical Fitness in Children Aged 7-12 Years
Authors: Wu Caifang , Wang Xiaozan
Published: February 2023

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between fundamental motor skills (FMS) and physical fitness (PF) in children
aged 7-12 years. The participants were 217 children (50.7% female) from a primary school in Shanghai. The FMS was assessed using Chinese
version Test of Gross Motor Development–3 edition (CTGMD-3), which includes 6 locomotor skills and 7 ball skills. PF was measured following
China’s national physical health standards for students, which includes BMI, vital capacity, sit and reach, 50m sprint, one-minute rope
jumping, one-minute sit-ups and 50m * 8 shuttle run. The weighted score of the 7 tests was calculated to represent the performance of
PF. Four participants were assigned into one group and took all tests within a physical education class. Two well-trained graduate
assistants performed the tests within one month. Descriptive statistics were computed after checking the normality of the scores of
CTGMD-3 and PF. Pearson correlation was used to determine the relationship between FMS and PF. The significance level was set at 0.05.
The results showed a significantly positive correlation between the CTGMD-3 score and PF score (r = 0.166, p = 0.014).
There was a significantly positive correlation between the score of locomotor skills and PF scores (r = 0.269, p < 0.01).
No significant correlation between the score of ball skills and PF score (r = 0.065, p = 0.338) was found. It is concluded
that FMS, especially locomotor skills, was associated with PF among children aged 7-12 years. The generalizability of this study was
limited since the participants were from one primary school in Shanghai. The small sample size might limit the power of this study.
Future research is needed to explore the mechanism underlying the relationship between FMS and PF.

Published: February 2023

Playing golf is good for health. Previous studies found that golf training can improve performance such as muscle strength, endurance, balance, and agility. Constitution is the important foundation of national and social development, and children are the key period of constitution development. At present, there are few studies on the influence of golf on children's physical fitness. This study explored the influence of 16-week soft golf exercise intervention on the physical health of 4–5-year-old children. Sixty children aged 4-5 years old were recruited from a kindergarten school in Shanghai, China with means of age at 4.56±0.54 and height at 112.72±3.96. Participants were randomly assigned into experimental group and control group. The physical fitness data were collected before and after the intervention. The intervention lasted 16 weeks of soft golf training with twice a week and 45 minutes each time. The control group did not do any training. The results showed that: (1) there were no significant differences between the experimental group and the control group in terms of lower limb strength and coordination ability. After intervention, Participants in the experimental group performed significantly better than those in the control group. (2) There were no significant differences in upper limb strength, endurance, and balance among participants between the experimental group and the control group. After intervention, Participants in the experimental group and the control group improved in physical fitness at varying degrees when compared with the pre-test, however the improvements were not statistically significant. This study showed that after 16 weeks of soft golf intervention, participants in the experimental group and the control group had different degrees of improvement in physical fitness test indicators. Especially in lower limb strength and coordination ability test indicators, participants in the experimental group performed significantly higher than those in the control group. It is suggested that the impact of soft golf on children's physical fitness was positive. In China, research on golf and children's physical fitness is still in its infancy. Soft golf retains the characteristics of traditional golf, and the development conditions are more convenient, which provide objective conditions for campus golf. The exercise effect of soft golf on physical fitness among different participants should be further explored in the future.

Efficacy of Granisetron versus Sufentanil on Reducing Myoclonic Movements Following Etomidate
Authors: Alipour Mohammad , Abdi Naeem , Zaj Parisa , Mashhadi Leila
Published: February 2023

Objective: Etomidate-induced myoclonus occurs in up to 85% of patients under general anesthesia. This type of myoclonus can induce significant clinical and economic problems in patients with special conditions. Hence, to reduce the intensity of myoclonus movements, the present study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of granisetron and sufentanil on reducing the intensity of etomidate-induced myoclonic movements. Methods: This double-blind randomized clinical trial study consisted of 96 adult patients. Using block randomization, subjects were divided into three groups of 32: the group receiving granisetron 40 μg / kg (group G), the group receiving sufentanil 0.2 μg / kg (group S), and the control group who did not receive the pretreatment (group C). Patients received these medications as pretreatments 120 seconds before induction with etomidate. After injection of etomidate with a dose of 0.3 mg/kg, the incidence of myoclonus was evaluated. After evaluating the myoclonus, the full dose of narcotics (fentanyl 1 μg / kg) and muscle relaxants (atracurium 0.5 mg/kg) were administered to patients, and a suitable airway was established for them. Results: The findings indicated that granisetron reduced the intensity and incidence of myoclonic movements more than sufentanil. In addition, myoclonic movements were observed at a significantly higher intensity in the control group (P=0.001). Conclusion: The results obtained from the current study indicate that granisetron and sufentanil as pretreatments are effective for reducing myoclonus in patients.

Keywords: Granisetron; Sufentanil; Etomidate; Myoclonus; Movement.

Con mucho gusto presentamos a nuestros lectores el primer número del 2023 de Medicina UPB que contiene 12 manuscritos: cinco de ellos son investigaciones origi­nales, cinco son revisiones narrativas y dos son reportes de casos. El primero de los originales es un ensayo clínico controlado sobre dos tipos de ayuno en pacientes sometidos a intervencionismo bajo anestesia local. Es un tema de debate ya que no hay una normatividad clara sobre el ayuno más apropiado en estos casos, por lo que el experimento realizado contribuye a la toma de decisiones en este importante asunto. Los tres siguientes estudios son sobre salud mental. El primero trata el consumo de sustancias en pacientes con esquizofrenia. Es de gran relevancia dada la gravedad de ambas entidades, la dependencia y el trastorno del neurodesarrollo, que empeoran al discurrir juntas en el mismo paciente.

Objetivo: determinar el efecto de dos tipos de ayuno sobre parámetros de satisfacción, náuseas, vómito, presión arterial y glucometría en pacientes sometidos a procedimientos de intervencionismo percutáneo bajo anestesia local en un servicio de hemodinámica en Medellín, 2019. Metodología: ensayo clínico aleatorizado abierto de dos brazos en pacientes sometidos a procedimientos de intervencionismo percutáneo bajo anestesia local durante tres meses. Cada brazo con 153 participantes; se asignó un ayuno de seis horas y al grupo de exposición un ayuno de dos horas para alimentos de fácil digestión; no hubo cega­miento, se realizó cálculo de muestra, y se hizo análisis univariado, bivariado y modelo de regresión logística con la variable satisfacción. Resultados: en el grupo de ayuno de seis horas el 2.6% presentó náuseas y en el grupo de exposición el 1.3%; se observó un caso de vómito. La presión arterial y glucometría mostraron diferencias estadísticas sin relevancia clínica. Se encontró significancia esta­dística para mareo, cefalea, hambre, sed y tipo de ayuno respecto con la satisfacción del paciente. Los pacientes con ayuno tuvieron un puntaje de satisfacción entre 60 y 100 y los de dieta ligera entre 82.5 y 100 puntos. Conclusiones: El ayuno de dos horas en dieta ligera mejora la satisfacción de los pa­cientes, disminuye la sensación de hambre, sed, presencia de cefalea y mareo, compa­rado con un ayuno de seis horas. Este estudio no encontró diferencias en las variables hemodinámicas ni en la frecuencia de náuseas y vómito.

La prevención del suicidio es un imperativo mundial, sin embargo, la divulgación de las medidas universales, selectivas e indicadas no es suficiente sin la evidencia de su efec­tividad. Esta revisión tiene como objetivo mostrar estrategias de salud pública para la prevención del suicidio, otras que ya son útiles y algunos programas multicomponentes que han dado resultado en ese sentido. El estudio del suicidio es relevante, pero no es posible establecer un único modelo predictivo, en consonancia, las estrategias de salud pública deben ser implementadas desde las características culturales, demográficas, sociales y económicas del entorno. Las políticas de prevención de suicidio alrededor del mundo contemplan diversas medidas, pero se requiere la implementación de las que sean más efectivas en cada contexto. Además, los actores sociales deben reconocer y promover las recomendaciones sobre el tema para la efectividad de la prevención.
Using machine-learning methods in determination of the pipe line gas turbine plant effective power
Authors: Blinov V.L. , Deryabin G.A.
Published: February 2023

The paper considers methods of the gas turbine plant power designed for natural gas transportation and reveals their drawbacks. A program in the Python language was created to study applicability of the machine-learning methods to determine the plant power under operating conditions. Archival gas-dynamic parameters registered by the plant automatic control system were used as the initial data. Forecast quality of the machine-learning models was estimated depending on different sets of the feature parameters. Recommendations on the models use are provided; and the method error was determined. Hypothesis on applicability of models learned based on data of a single engine to estimate the power of the other engines of the same type was refuted. Machine-learning methods could be used to determine the gas turbine plant power even in the absence of part of the initial data, which is the main advantage over traditional methods.
Etyka w działalności samorządu terytorialnego
Authors: Stawecki Marek
Published: February 2023

Corruption is an actual threat to democracy as it impairs the citizens’ trust towards the state. Therefore, it is
necessary to undertake any actions that would prevent it; actions that would promote the formation of ethical
structure in all departments of administration, as well as would build an ethical awareness among local government employees and city councilors. Ethical behaviour is dependent on clear procedures, good regulations and
their proper interpretation.
The principal objective should be to increase the citizens’ trust towards public administration and to improve
administrative work. That is why one of the most obvious techniques (but not the only one) of raising ethical
standards is to implement an adequate system of choice and selection of employees. In Poland, when the moral
standard of a candidate for a post in public administration comes under close scrutiny, any doubts are quite often
eliminated by the assumption that, if the candidate is patronized by a third party, its authority is a warrant of his or
her adequate ethical standard. Of course, it’s a wrong point of view.
The above-mentioned examples indicate that the rules of ethics should be introduced to public administration work because they guarantee that the quality of services will be good, they will neutralize corruption and,
if followed, they will enable preparing public administration officers and local government representatives to
assume responsibility for their actions.

Narkomania w wojsku – wybrane uwarunkowania
Authors: Dudek Mieczysław
Published: February 2023

Drug abuse is a growing social problem in Poland and is a particularly serious problem in the Military. The
conditions of military service may be a factor that stimulates drug addiction among soldiers, particularly those
who are psychically and physically weak and not adapted to team work. The psychical stress that results from the
abrupt breaking of existing bonds and social relationships (family, colleagues, partners) is intensified by spatial
limits (military barracks), and the character of military units (personal freedom limitation). Another important
aspect is, natural in this situation, access to weapons and the nature of tasks performed by a modern army. Yet the
army continues to recruit young people who are physically and mentally weaker and weaker. In face of this problem, the commanders, supervisors and teachers are required to possess not only psychological and pedagogical
knowledge, but also ethical and moral awareness.
The article is based on empirical results of the test conducted in 2007 among 100 conscription soldiers of the
Lublin Garrison of the Polish Army.

Przyjaźń i wspólnota, jako czynniki autentyzmu życia i działania ludzi. Kilka uwag na podstawie własnego doświadczenia
Authors: Sztylka Andrzej
Published: February 2023

Friendship is the foremost form of human individual relation, a demanding community of ethical courage
and reciprocation of the measure of life in the ethico-existential dimension. The said relation is of autotelic nature,
being no substitute for other forms of human co-existence, however it contributes to solving issues insurmountable
in other forms of human relations. It opens up the human’s existence to wider dimensions of co-existence and cofeeling. In the human community a man’s development – of an individual and that of a member of the society – is
determined by their gradual realization of stable humanistic values, constituting the fundamental criterion of their
attitude towards reality. The human closeness and reciprocating the measure of life are the basic features of
friendship and community. That makes those qualities compatible both existentially and practically. The abovementioned forms of human existence have to be clearly distinguished from the passing conventional reciprocity,
founded on the societally-accepted concept of “the idol of the market”. The relevance of the will to authenticity of
the co-existing human beings, finding its expression in practicing equivalency in acts of reciprocity and shaping
a mutually adequate measure of life, has to be strongly emphasized.

Published: February 2023

Urban sprawl is the growth of a settlement that occurs during urbanization. Guwahati city, located in the Kamrup Metropolitan District of Assam, India, is the hub of the northeastern states. To examine urban sprawl and the rate of population expansion during the past 30 years, research has been conducted to determine the built-up land characteristics. A temporal study using satellite images for two different years (1990 and 2020) has been carried out through GIS and remote sensing techniques, supervised classification using maximum likelihood for land use land cover preparation and raster calculator has been used to delineate NDVI and the Urban Index. The city has been divided into five buffer zones from the central growth point, and the sprawl has been analyzed for each buffer zone. The city's growth is so drastic that the built-up area has increased from 27.18% in 1990 to 47.87% in 2020. Zone-wise, the most remarkable changes have been seen in zone 2 and zone 5, up to 28.95% and 22.62%, respectively. Zone-3 counts as the minor changes in the built-up area, i.e., 6.2% due to the Ramsar site named Deeparbeel. This study will help urban planners understand the nature of sprawl and develop a feasible solution.

The purpose of the paper is to demonstrate the potential of experiential learning in fulfilling the role of higher education institutions in teaching and promoting an MBA education. The educational achievements of the Green Week of the MBA in Agribusiness and Commerce (AgriMBA) are highlighted and challenges and areas in need of improvement are discussed.
Curriculum serves as the foundation of teaching students. While progress has been made in MBA curriculum, including economics, informatics, finance, marketing, and management, integrating these knowledge areas into experiential learning should be a key component of an MBA education. The AgriMBA provides such an integration of knowledge areas within an experiential learning environment of the Green Week. The Green Week has included 343 students representing 21 countries, six continents, and 11 universities, involved 34 case studies, and hosted by six universities during the 17 years it has been held.
Although most MBA programs include case studies in their curriculum, the Green Week is unique in providing “live”, real-time case studies, where students representing multiple universities and countries come together to present their recommendations to business executives. This intensive, experiential learning opportunity exhibits how students from different cultural backgrounds are able to quickly form functional teams, apply curriculum knowledge areas, and effectively achieve this ambitious goal.

Published: February 2023

Packaging does not only protect a product but also provides directions for using the product, as well as relevant information about its content and nutritional value. This study was undertaken to assess Granulated Cassava (Gari) sellers’ perception, profitability and determinants of packaging in Ashanti Region. The study area was purposively selected because of the active participation and contribution of marketing activities. A structured questionnaire was administered in the form of interview to obtain primary data from the respondents. Data was generated using binary and multinomial logit regression model and Garret ranking technique. The results showed that there is 0.11% difference in the gross margin of both ventures which is also statistically significant at 1%. Years of education, legal requirement, and durability of the packaging material and cost of packaging material were the significant factors that influence sellers’ choice of packaging. Lack of technical know-how, cost of capital equipment and lack of knowledge on packaging equipment and/or material were the most limiting constraints affecting Gari packaging. The study recommends that investors should invest in the Gari packaging business since it has a relatively higher rate of returns as compared to the unpackaged one.
Management issues of cropping with sorghum in the production structure - a case study of Hungary
Authors: Felföldi János , Sulyok Dénes , Czakó Iván , Kovács Krisztián
Published: February 2023

One of the goals of the developments is to improve the efficiency of the activity by making the currently used traditional production structure more flexible and by making the necessary changes to the technology in the case of farmers with large agricultural land, having necessary machinery and equipments required. Farms with larger arables land are able to offset the effects of changes affecting efficacy and profitability. The main sector of Hungarian agriculture is crop production, so performance is largely determined by the annual output of the crop production sector and the price development of crop products. In the course of our analytical work, we defined a farm of 2100 hectares, for which we examined crop production, crop machinery and economic aspects. From the enterprise data, farm level results compiled according to the crop structure were calculated. Sorghum is suitable for replacing corn in the crop rotation in areas with unfavorable conditions, so a stably growing crop can be added to the crop rotation of autumn ears of corn, rape, and sunflower, instead of corn. It does not hinder the machinery modernization efforts either, since the precision tools and developments already started in corn production can be used well, and it does not require a special equipment park. At the same time, in light of the increasingly frequent negative climatic effects, sorghum’s integration into the plant production structure is encouraging, because we have to count on 3-4 drought years in a decade. Based on our analysis, the inclusion of sorghum in the crop structure does not significantly reduce the available income, which is acceptable in the given economic environment. However, its stability can significantly contribute to improving the resilience of farming, especially in comparison with corn.

The study assessed the technical efficiency of Nigerian dairy farms. Information on 73 dairy farms was obtained from the General Household Survey (GHS Panel) for the year 2018-2019 wave, and the method of analysis employed include descriptive statistics and Data Envelopment Analysis Model. The findings show that not all the farms sampled are technically efficient, which means they can still utilize their input resources more effectively. The average level of technical efficiency of sampled farms was 83%; this suggests from the technical point of view that there exist an opportunity for expansion of milk production and revenue using the same level of inputs at present and putting to use effectively available technologies by 17%. Furthermore, results also show that farms that practice grazing systems, those located in the northern part of Nigeria and small farm sizes, have higher T.E. overall.

Published: February 2023

Introduction: Acute kidney injury is a clinico-biological syndrome that ranges in severity from Kidney attack to failure. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence and risk factors of AKI after paediatric cardiac surgery with extracorporeal circulation. Methods: Prospective observational study, conducted over a period of 4 months at the cardiac centre of the CHU of Fann. The diagnosis of AKI was based on the modified RIFLE criteria for paediatrics. Results: Our work involved 40 patients with a male predominance (sex ratio 1.8) and an average age of 7.2 years. We noted 02 types of surgery: congenital surgery (80%), valvular surgery (20%). All patients underwent scheduled surgery with a mean preoperative GFR of 130.2 ml/Kg/1.73 m2. The mean duration of extracorporeal circulation was 107.7 min. Postoperatively, 82.5% were placed on sympathomimetics, 12.5% had severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction, 27.5% had severe right ventricular systolic dysfunction and one quarter of the patients received a postoperative transfusion. The incidence of AKI was 30% with: 20% at risk, 7.5% with damage and only one patient in failure. Right ventricular systolic dysfunction and postoperative transfusion were the main risk factors. Mortality in our series was 10% and the dependence on AKI was significant (p=0.038). Conclusion: The epidemiology of AKI after paediatric cardiac surgery depends on the definition used. The incidence is highly variable and depends on the epidemiological, intraoperative and postoperative characteristics of the patients.

ABSTRACT: The stages of determining election results have important characteristics; because it determines the party who wins the election and, at the same time, proves the legality and legitimacy of holding the election. Nevertheless, there are various problems regarding the formulation of policies in criminal acts related to the determination of election results. This research on the formulation of criminal acts associated with election results is normative research with a statutory approach, a conceptual approach, and a comparative approach. This legal research aims to discuss the formulation of the crime of 'late setting election results' and 'not determining election results; while at the same time reviewing future projections by formulating an ideal formulation regarding the formulation of the criminal act of determining election results. The results of the study state that the formulation of criminalization policies in illegal acts related to the determination of election results is regulated to meet various legal problems, including the dimensions of action, the dimensions of criminal responsibility, and the dimensions of criminal sanctions. Then, by taking references from Canada and Kenya, the projections of the formulation are prepared by specifying two objects of action, namely the act of not determining the election results and the act of being late in determining the election results as a crime. Completing the formulation was followed by a complete determination of the subject of a criminal offense accompanied by intentional errors and the formulation of flexibility-based sanctions oriented to avoiding sentencing disparities.

BACKGROUND: Motor performance in older adults with cognitive impairment is worse under dual task conditions, increasing the risk of falls. However, there is a lack of studies that analyze this performance over time in people with different cognitive profiles.
AIM: This study aimed to compare the performance of an isolated task and a dual task in people with preserved cognition (PrC), mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer`s disease (AD).
METHOD: Data were collected on two occasions (T1; T2), thirty-two months apart. Participants (n=51) were separated between groups: PrC (n=22), MCI (n=19) and AD (n=10). They were analyzed in three situations: 1) isolated motor task - Timed up and go test (TUGT); 2) cognitive-motor test (CMT)– dialing on the phone; 3) dual task (DT). To compare the performance of the dual task between the groups, delta was calculated and the ANCOVA test was applied.
RESULTS: Although the cost of the dual task was not significantly different over time in any group, we found increases in the time required to complete the TUGT (p<0.01) and TUGT-DT (p>0.01) after 32 months in the AD group and a reduction in time in the PrC and MCI groups.  A greater number of steps in the TUGT-DT (p<0.01) and an increase in cadence in the TUGT (p=0.01) and TUGT-DT (p<0.01) were also found in the AD group.
CONCLUSION:We suggest that a more functional task, such as walking while typing on the phone, may be considered a more sensitive way of assessing older adults with AD.

Axle counter merupakan peralatan pendeteksi kereta api dengan memancarkan frekuensi gelombang untuk menghitung jumlah gandar pada sarana yang melewatinya. Pada Resort Sintel 4. 1 Tegal sering terjadi kerusakan axle counter karena imbas petir yang mengakibatkan kerusakan komponen pada axle counter. Pada prinsipnya arus berlebih tersebut dapat langsung dibumikan tanpa merusak komponen dengan sistem grounding yang baik. Dengan latar belakang tersebut peneliti merencanakan sistem grounding yang baik untuk mengantisipasi kejadian tersebut. Perencanaan yang dilakukan dengan memperhitungkan kebutuhan grounding dengan metode seri dan paralel, dengan parameter jenis tanah, kedalaman, dan diameter grounding sehingga dapat direncanakan nilai tahanan pentanahan yang sesuai. Peneliti juga mendesain sistem grounding menggunakan software Aspix yang dapat disimulasikan menyerupai kondisi yang sama pada lapangan. Pengukuran langsung nilai tahanan pentanahan diperlukan untuk memvalidasi hasil perhitungan perencanaan dan simulai desain grounding untuk mengetahui faktor kesalahan dari perencanaan yang dilakukan peneliti. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah sistem grounding berpengaruh pada nilai tahanan pentanahan. Sistem paralel memiliki nilai tahanan pentanahan paling kecil terdapat pada tanah sawah dengan kedalamanan 2,5 meter dan diameter 25mm2. Jadi untuk menentukan nilai tahanan pentanahan yang sesuai, kedalaman penanaman berpengaruh terhadap sistem grounding yang digunakan karena semakin dalam penanaman maka akan semakin mendekati air tanah. Sistem grounding yang efektif untuk sistem seri pada kedalaman 1 meter dengan jenis tanah sawah.

Sistem irigasi di Indonesia masih menerapkan metode tradisional, yaitu metode buka tutup untuk saluran irigasi ke sawah masih dilakukan secara manual dengan tenaga manusia. Metode tersebut dinilai peneliti kurang efektif dan efisien, sehingga diperlukan sistem monitoring dalam saluran irigasi tersebut. Monitoring ketinggian air diperlukan untuk menjaga debit air agar tidak merusak sawah ataupun tanaman lain disekitarnya. Sistem monitoring dirancang menggunakan sensor ultrasonic dan NodeMCU sebagai media komunikasi data yang terhubung dengan jaringan WiFi. Sistem ini berbasis Internet of Things sehingga proses monitoring dapat dilakukan melalui aplikasi Blynk pada smartphone. Penerapan sistem ini diharapkan dapat membuat pekerjaan para petani menjadi lebih efektif dan efisien. Dari hasil perancangan dan pengujian prototipe, dapat ditarik kesimpulan bahwa sensor ultrasonic memiliki pengukuran jarak ke permukaan air yang presisi dengan alat pembanding yaitu penggaris. Fungsi aktuator dan Blynk membuktikan bahwa kontrol jarak jauh berjalan dengan baik dan responsif dalam membuka atau menutup pintu irigasi dan mematikan atau menyalakan pompa DC. Hasil pengujian QoS masing-masing parameter memperoleh rata-rata, untuk delay sebesar 1491 ms, untuk throughput sebesar 6,131 kbps, untuk packet loss sebesar 11,36%. Berdasarkan standarisasi TIPHON, hasil pengujian parameter delay dan throughput masuk dalam kategori Buruk. Sedangkan hasil pengujian parameter packet loss masuk dalam kategori Baik. Hal ini dikarenakan Blynk server butuh waktu untuk menanggapi paket yang dikirim maupun paket yang diterima.

Masalah keamanan ruangan saat ini perlu mendapatkan perhatian yang serius. Dalam sebuah bangunan atau gedung biasanya ada ruangan yang hanya boleh diakses oleh orang-orang tertentu saja. Oleh karena itu diperlukan sebuah sistem yang berfungsi sebagai pengaman ruangan tersebut. Sistem pengaman yang dibuat pada penelitian ini memanfaatkan ID e-KTP sebagai kode yang dibaca oleh RFID yang ada pada sistem. Orang yang berhak mengakses ruangan adalah orang yang ID e-KTPnya sudah terdaftar. Aplikasi WhatsApp digunakan sebagai notifikasi identitas orang yang berhak mengakses ruangan tersebut. Jika terdeteksi ada ID e-KTP yang belum terdaftar dan mencoba untuk mengakses ruang tersebut maka akan ada notifikasi ke pihak otoritas pengelola gedung. Berdasarkan hasil uji coba, rata-rata waktu tanggapan alat sebesar 1,229 detik.

Let $S=\left(s_1, \ldots, s_n\right)$ be a finite sequence of integers. Then $S$ is a Gilbreath sequence of length $n$, $S\in\mathbb{G}_n$, iff $s_1$ is even or odd and $s_2, \ldots, s_n$ are respectively odd or even and $\min\mathbb{K}_{\left(s_1, \ldots, s_m\right)}\leq s_{m+1}\leq\max\mathbb{K}_{\left(s_1, \ldots, s_m\right)}\forall m\in\left[\left.1, n\right)\right.$. This, applied to the order sequence of prime number $P$, defines Gilbreath polynomials and two integer sequences A347924 \cite{oeisA347924} and A347925 \cite{oeisA347925} which are used to prove that Gilbreath conjecture $GC$ is implied by $p_n-2^{n-1}\leqslant\mathcal{P}_{n-1}\left(1\right)$ where $\mathcal{P}_{n-1}\left(1\right)$ is the $n-1$-th Gilbreath polynomial at 1.

Abstract: The objective of Peter Chew Triangle Diagram is to clearly illustrate the topic solution of triangle and provide a complete design for the knowledge of AI age. Peter Chew's triangle diagram will suggest a better single rule that allows us to solve any problem of topic solution of triangle simple , directly and more accurately. There are two important rules for solving the topic solution of triangle today [1,2], namely the sine rule and the cosine rule. The sine rule is used to find a non-included angle when are given two sides and a non-included angle or the opposite side angle given when are given two angles and one side. The cosine rule normally is used to find the included angle when are given three sides or the third side when are given two sides and the included angle. Peter Chew Method[3] allow us to find the third side simple and directly when given two sides and a non-included angle. Peter Chew rule [4] allow us to find a non included angle simple, directly and more accurately when given 2 sides and an included angle. Aply Peter Chew Triangle Diagram to Education 4.0 Calculator , Peter Chew Triangle Diagram Calculator allows the Calculator to solve any problems in the topic solution of triangle simple, directly and more accurate. This can be effective in increasing students' interest in using technology while learning mathematics and will help in the learning of mathematics, especially when similar covid-19 issues arise in the future.
