General elections are held with the intention of electing community representatives who can then form a government, continue the independence movement, and uphold the integrity of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia. Political parties themselves are a forum for association and gathering of people to participate in government guaranteed by the constitution. In becoming election participants political parties and members of political parties must register through the Political Party Information System (SIPOL) created by the election organizers, namely the General Election Commission in order to help make it easier for political parties to register and assist the KPU in carrying out the stages of verification and determination of political parties participating in elections as well as creating more transparent and accountable parties and increasing orderliness of political parties in the registration stage. The purpose of this research is to describe the application of political party information systems, especially in Tegal City, as well as to describe the quality of political parties. This study uses a qualitative descriptive research method, with data analysis techniques using Nvivo analysis to obtain systematic analysis results. The results of the study show that the application of the Political Party Information System at the Tegal City KPU and the Tegal City political parties is said to be quite good. Where from the KPU and political parties they feel very facilitated by the existence of SIPOL as a tool for registering, verifying, and determining political parties participating in elections, as well as the level of transparency and accountability of political parties has increased since the existence of SIPOL

INSULIN RESISTANCE, SERUM ADIPONECTIN AND ADIPONECTIN GENE POLYMORPHISM IN FIRST-DEGREE RELATIVES OF INDIVIDUALS WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS
Authors: Kiraç Yasemin , Yilmaz Murat
Published: August 2024

Objective: Investigation of insulin resistance, serum adiponectin levels, and adiponectin gene polymorphism in first-degree relatives of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients.
Material and Methods: A total of 142 individuals (34 males, 108 females) meeting the inclusion criteria for first-degree relatives of T2DM patients were included in the study. A control group consisting of 80 (15 males, 65 females) healthy adults was formed. Blood pressure, waist and hip circumferences were measured for all participants. Fasting glucose and insulin levels, lipid profile, serum adiponectin level, and adiponectin gene polymorphism were analyzed, and an oral glucose tolerance test with 75 grams of glucose was conducted. Insulin resistance was calculated using the HOMA-IR method.
Results: HOMA-IR value, total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, and triglyceride levels were significantly higher, while HDL-cholesterol level was significantly lower in first-degree relatives of T2DM patients compared to the control group. Glucose tolerance impairment was more prevalent in the study group. Serum adiponectin levels were significantly lower in the study group. Adiponectin gene polymorphism showed a similarity between the two groups.
Conclusion: The higher HOMA-IR and lower serum adiponectin levels detected in first-degree relatives of T2DM patients suggest impairment in metabolic functions in these individuals. However, adiponectin gene polymorphism showed a similarity between the study and control groups. Further extensive studies supported by single gene polymorphism and multi-allele investigations, taking into account environmental factors and lifestyle, are needed to determine the effect of adiponectin gene polymorphism on diabetes development and impaired metabolic functions.

Published: August 2024

The increase in motorcycle theft cases has become a serious concern. This research aims to design a motorcycle parking security system through a website in response to this challenge. The system uses a website accessible via smartphones using QR code. Users scan the provided QR code to access the website, where they will be prompted to enter a password that functions as a controller for the locking and unlocking process of the motorcycle's front wheel using a servo motor. Furthermore, to detect forced removal attempts, the system is equipped with an alarm that notifies the parking attendant. This alarm will be activated if vibrations above 20 cm/s2 are detected and will be accompanied by a buzzer sound as a danger signal. Based on the results of the study, this system can work well and produce the appropriate output as previously designed with a success percentage of 91% and the servo motor as a motorcycle safety device can work to lock the front tire of a motorcycle that has a tire tread width of 90 mm according to with what was previously defined

Published: August 2024

In computer vision applications, pattern recognition is one of the important fields in artificial intelligence. With the advancement in deep learning technology, many machine learning algorithms were developed to tackle the problem of pattern recognition. The purpose of conducting the research is to create the first-ever Dzongkha handwritten digit dataset and develop a model to classify the digit. In the study, the 3 layer set of CONV → ReLU → POOL, followed by a fully connected layer, dropout layer, and softmax function were used to train the digit. In the dataset, each class (0-9) contains 1500 images which are split into train, validation, and test sets: 70:20:10. The model was trained on three different image dimensions: 28 by 28, 32 by 32, and 64 by 64. Compared to image dimensions 28 by 28 and 32 by 32, 64 by 64 gave the highest train, validation, and test accuracy of 98.66%, 98.9%, and 99.13% respectively. In the future, the sample of digits needs to be increased and use the transfer learning concept to train the model.

Published: August 2024

Ensuring safety while riding a motorbike is an imperative task. Currently, safety products such as helmets have the capability to provide protection to users without the additional feature of issuing warnings. Consequently, a preemptive alert system is developed to offer timely notifications to drivers. The experimental setup involves the utilization of a Max30100 sensor that is linked to a microcontroller and integrated into a helmet. The objective of this final project is to offer a timely alert to the rider and utilize the Max30100 sensor for pulse detection in order to ascertain the normalcy of the rider's pulse. In instances where the rider encounters tiredness and fatigue, it is common for the pulse intensity to exhibit a reduction. The Blynk application presents the detection pulse findings on the smartphone screen, while the buzzer on the helmet will activate in response to vibrations and sounds once the pulse has diminished. Based on testing, the average pulse rate on quiet road conditions is 78.58 BPM. On busy road conditions, the average pulse rate is 73.25 BPM. While in traffic conditions, the average pulse rate is 73.5 BPM. The helmet theft detector uses a Sharp GP2Y0A21 sensor that can only detect object distances up to 10 cm.

Published: August 2024

Information security is paramount for individuals, companies, and governments. Threats to data confidentiality are increasingly complex, demanding strong protection. Therefore, cryptography and steganography play pivotal roles. This study proposes the utilization of LSB (Least Significant Bit) steganography on image files employing the 3DES (Triple Data Encryption Standard) algorithm. The aim is to facilitate secure transmission and reception of data, including confidential messages, within digital information media. The research methodology involves implementing 3DES + LSB using Image Citra and innovating 3DES + MD5 Hash in .txt files. The results and discussions described include, among others, Pseudocode, Cryptographic Testing, and Steganography Testing. Based on the results of program analysis and testing, it can be concluded that the more messages that are inserted in the image, the more pixel differences there are in the stego image. The more colors in the image to which the message will be inserted, the more pixel differences in the stego image will be. The images that stego objects can present are only images with .png and .jpeg extensions. Testing from the fidelity aspect, the average PSNR obtained is 66,365, meaning that the stego image quality is very good. Testing from the recovery aspect, from 4 tested stego images, showed that messages can be extracted again. Testing of the robustness spec using two attack techniques, namely rotation, and robustness, shows that the message cannot be extracted from the image. Testers of the computation time, from testing 1-1000 characters, show the average time required for computation is about 0.798 seconds.

El virus HTLV-I como posible causa de la paraparesia espástica del Pacífico
Authors: Vladimir Zaninovi´c  , Robin Biojó  , César Arango  , Pablo Barreto
Published: August 2024

Se describe un foco de prevalencia elevada de paraparesia espástica tropical en la porción sur de la costa del Pacífico de Colombia. Como todos los pacientes vivían en las llanuras costeras, este síndrome se denominó paraparesia espástica del Pacífico. Los síntomas y signos son los de un síndrome de neurona motora superior, propio sólo de adultos de ambos sexos.
La prevalencia del síndrome (98/100 000) en Tumaco, pequeño puerto colombiano, excede la prevalencia actual de la enfermedad de neurona motora en Guam y en la Península Kii. Se dan los criterios diagnósticos mínimos. De casi 100 casos que se encontraron, se incluyeron 77 en este trabajo y de ellos 20 con el cuadro clásico, se llevaron desde la costa del Pacífico al Hospital Universitario del Valle en Cali, donde se le hicieron estudios completos neurológicos y de laboratorio. Los hallazgos positivos fueron: parasitismo múltiple (85%), eosinofilia (50%), megaloblastosis (40%), serología positiva para VDRL (75%), y la misma cifra de positividad para FTA-abs en el líquido cefalorraquídeo. Las pruebas virológicas para HTLV-I mostraron tasas altas de anticuerpos en 100% de los sueros y en 72.7% de los LCR. Todos los sueros y LCR de controles fueron negativos para HTLV-I y HSTLV-III. Estos resultados sugieren un proceso infeccioso como la causa de la paraparesia espástica tropical. La transmisión sexual podría explicar el hecho que la enfermedad ataca sólo a los adultos.

Se determinaron la prevalencia y la distribución de filariasis entre los habitantes de regiones vecinas en el Departamento del Meta, la Intendencia del Casanare y la Comisaría del Vichada, en el oriente colombiano, mediante la recolección de muestras de sangre y su examen con el método de Knott. La Mansonella ozzardi, la única especie descubierta, se encontró en 2.5% de las muestras obtenidas en el Meta (6/243), en 4.9% de las de Casanare (12/247) y en 2.5% del Vichada (3/137. Todos los casos de microfilarias eran de indios que habían migrado de otras partes del oriente de Colombia, sobre todo del interior del Meta y Vichada. Estos resultados indican que las filariasis no son endémicas en las regiones examinadas y sugieren que la entrada de portadores con microfilaremias suficientemente altamente altas puede establecer focos nuevos de transmisión en áreas donde los vectores apropiados sean abundantes.

Displasia congénita de cadera. Epidemiología e hipótesis etiológica
Authors: Daza Néctar
Published: August 2024

La displasia congénita de cadera es una enfermedad grave de la articulación coxofemoral presente en todo el mundo. Este artículo propone que la enfermedad tiene como causa un factor fundamentalmente mecánico: la posición relativa de los componentes articulares. Este factor ocasiona en la articulación coxofemoral tal variedad de lesiones que la denominación de displasia congénita de cadera no alcanza a cubrirlas. El autor propone llamarla enfermedad de Ortolani-Barlow.
Nutrición y desarrollo de la capacidad física
Authors: Reina Julio César , Spurr G. B.
Published: August 2024

Al referirse a la capacidad de trabajo físico de una población del tercer mundo, donde la incidencia de desnutrición es alta, se debe tener en cuenta el estado nutricional de los individuos. Por lo general en estas poblaciones, hay porcentajes más o menos altos de adultos económicamente activos comprometidos en trabajo físico moderado o pesado. La productividad de algunas de estas ocupaciones tiene relación directa con la capacidad de trabajo físico del individuo. Además, esta capacidad depende del estado nutricional, de tal manera que el grado de desnutrición puede disminuir de modo significante la capacidad de trabajo, en su gran mayoría por una disminución en la masa muscular. Como consecuencia, la productividad del adulto desnutrido estaría disminuida en las ocupaciones que requieran un trabajo físico moderado o pesado. Durante el crecimiento de niños escolares, aun la desnutrición crónica marginal tiene como consecuencia retrasos en el crecimiento, en el desarrollo sexual, en la aceleración del crecimiento en la adolescencia y una disminución de la capacidad de trabajo físico determinado por medio del VO2 max (1/min). La reducción en el VO2 max parece que se debe a un menor tamaño corporal (menos masa corporal) de los niños comprometidos. Los resultados indican que estos niños cuando sean adultos, producirán menos en las ocupaciones que requieran trabajo físico; también sugieren la necesidad de intervenir a fin de proporcionar una nutrición adecuada para este segmento económicamente importante de la población.

Se presentan un modelo de atención para el recién nacido ictérico por niveles de complejidad, con base en el cálculo de los factores de riesgo asociados. El programa compromete en Cali, Colombia, al Hospital Universitario del Valle, como nivel III de atención, al Hospital San Juan de Dios como nivel II, mientras 6 centros periféricos representan el nivel I. Se indican también los resultados obtenidos al operar el modelo durante 6 meses (noviembre 1990 a mayo 1991). Se encontraron 373 pacientes atendidos por ictericia en todo el programa (18% del total). La muestra analizada fue de 224 niños, 89 en el nivel III, 77 en el nivel II y 58 en el nivel I. Se administró fototerapia en los tres niveles y la exanguineotransfusión sólo se realizó en los niveles III y II. La mortalidad directa por ictericia fue 0%, no hubo complicaciones tempranas atribuibles a esta afección, como tampoco para la exanguineotransfusión. La hospitalización no justificada fue 15% en el nivel III, 32% en el nivel II y 41% en el nivel I, pudiéndose manejas los pacientes en niveles menos complejos de atención o por control ambulatorio. Al reubicarlos según criterios de riesgo se encontró que habría sido posible disminuir en 7% los costos de hospitalización por esta entidad, sin afectar la calidad de atención. Este es el primer artículo que se pública sobre un sistema de regionalización en el manejo del recién nacido ictérico.

A TOMADA DE DECISÃO DO ASSISTENTE SOCIAL. A INTELIGÊNCIA EMOCIONAL E A FORMAÇÃO EM SERVIÇO SOCIAL
Authors: Mota Gonçalo
Published: August 2024

Este artigo procura explorar o conflito latente entre as emoções e a tomada de decisão do assistente social. Argumentamos que esta relação, para além de necessária, é possível, desde que os profissionais sejam capazes de identificar e gerir as suas próprias emoções. Esta ideia de uma melhor e mais adequada atuação profissional, coincide com a perspetiva de um profissional emocionalmente competente, que consegue trabalhar num ambiente emocionalmente intenso, que está consciente dos riscos que corre e procura tomar as medidas adequadas para se proteger das eventuais consequências negativas do seu trabalho. A inteligência emocional é por isso fundamental para que o assistente social seja capaz de reconhecer e compreender os seus próprios estados emocionais e aprender com essa mesma reflexão. A nossa proposta prende-se com a inevitável sensibilização para a integração nas disciplinas de Ética e Deontologia dos ciclos de estudos em Serviço Social, de um espaço que permita a realização de atividades que promovam o auto e hétero conhecimento dos estudantes, através do desenvolvimento de competências emocionais, bem como a procura de resolução de problemas, sempre com o objetivo de contribuir para o conhecimento sobre a construção da tomada de decisão ética, enquanto desígnio do Serviço Social.

Authors: Cantú William Afonso , Milhano Sandrina , Magueta Lúcia
Published: August 2024

The connection between the arts, intervention and emotions promotes reflective thinking about new ways of intervening in society to improve socio-cultural relations. This article presents an analysis that seeks to understand the intersection of the concepts of intervention, arts and emotions, helping to map the relationships and scientific developments linked to these concepts. A descriptive and exploratory study was carried out using a bibliometric analysis with performance analysis and science mapping approaches to analyze scientific production on these concepts, identifying trends, influential authors, emerging themes and collaboration networks. The results of this investigation show the potential of the research field, the thematic synergies and the multidisciplinarity involved in the research, making it possible to understand the dynamism of these concepts and the impact they have on the relationship with the 'human being'. The combination of these concepts results in scattered data and less concrete relationship networks, underlining the specificity of research in this context. Through this research, it is possible to observe broad patterns in diverse subjects such as 'human', 'performance', 'art', 'education', 'emotions', 'mental health', among others, with possibilities for future application. These results seek to open doors for further research and present the most important works, the authors and the fields of action with growth potential.
A EDUCAÇÃO EM PORTUGAL À LUZ DOS DEBATES PARLAMENTARES DA I REPÚBLICA (1911) E DO ESTADO NOVO (1935)
Authors: Alves Dina Catarina Duarte
Published: August 2024

À educação têm sido assinaladas finalidades específicas com o objetivo de viabilizar um projeto de sociedade conforme à ideologia que o elabora. Em Portugal, a I República (1910-1926) e o Estado Novo (1933-1974) constituem dois períodos em que a educação mais vinculada se encontra a um projeto de sociedade, pelo que fortemente interpenetrada da ideologia política e suas finalidades. Deles, irá emergir com uma força sem precedentes uma nova conceção do homem português, do seu papel, da sua moral e virtudes. A educação será o instrumento da realização desse ideário. O presente texto tem como objetivo alargar o conhecimento sobre a educação em Portugal à luz da forma como esta era vista e discutida pelas elites governativas nos debates parlamentares dos anos iniciais dos dois regimes, perscrutando os temas da esfera educativa levados ao hemiciclo e quais os posicionamentos e propostas daí resultantes. Conclui-se que na I República, a diversidade e profundidade das opiniões era substancialmente maior que no Estado Novo, no qual o confronto de posições divergentes era praticamente inexistente. Neste último, em intervenções de cariz maniqueísta, critica-se a I República (os “maus”) e os malefícios que esta, com a sua educação libertária, trouxera aos portugueses, deturpando os sólidos valores e a moral que o regime de Salazar (os “bons”) defendia. Na I República, o debate era alimentado pelo multipartidarismo e por diferentes visões sobre a educação e o seu papel na formação do cidadão, em intervenções inflamadas e ricas em figuras de estilo.

Analysing the functionality of electrical systems allows for an evaluation of the characteristics of different power sources over varying periods and enables the coordination of multiple units. This is crucial for assessing the effects of uncertainty on the system considering load and energy generation for the effectiveness of power system monitoring and smart scheduling and cost-effectiveness of electrical grid operation. This research introduces an approach for simulating the operation of an electrical grids considering different time scales based economic and technical indices. First, a series of standard source load scenarios is established. Subsequently, multiple scenarios are produced to show the stochastic nature of renewable energy and demand and utilizing the probability features of uncertain data. The system described in this paper shifts the power balance issue from a yearly scale to weekly and daily electricity balances based on different time scales. The performance of the stochastic simulation solution is significantly enhanced by effectively coordinating in different time periods. The total coal consumption, economic index, abandoned renewable energy, and the rate of abandoned renewable energy are all closely monitored to maintain a high level of accuracy in reflecting the system's performance.

Lemongrass is a fragrant grass that has significant industrial potential. It is grown for its essential oil, which has a high economic value because of its multiple medical, cosmetic, and culinary uses. The goal of this study was to improve the morpho-physiological and anatomical attributes of lemongrass by using nanostructured plant growth regulators (sodium nitrophenolate and daminozide) loaded with silicon nanoparticles to promote sustainable agriculture. In the present study, different concentrations of sodium nitrophenolate Si-NPs and daminozide Si-NPs, such as (control, 100 mg L-1, 200 mg L-1 and 300 mg L-1) were applied. There was a total of seven treatments and each treatment was replicated three times, resulting in 10 plants. The experiment was designed using a randomized complete block design (RCBD), and data were analyzed using Fisher's analysis of variance (ANOVA). Tukey's test was used to compare treatment means at a 5% probability level. Maximum plant height (120.62 cm), number of tillers (27.36), number of leaves (135.29), leaf length (78.66 cm), plant fresh weight (4531 g), plant dry weight (1510 g), photosynthetic rate (66.43 μmolm-2s-1), transpiration rate (0.60 mmol m-2s-1), stomatal conductance (0.088 mol m-2s-1), total leaf chlorophyll contents (25.8 SPAD), epidermal thickness (88.42 μm), cortical region thickness (684.40 μm), aerenchyma cell area (0.271 mm2), metaxylem area (0.269 mm2), phloem area (0.158 mm2) and pith region(654.12 μm) were found in T3 treatment (300 mg L-1 sodium nitrophenolate Si-NPs) and leaf width showed non-significant results among the treatments. It is concluded that 300 mg L-1 Sodium nitrophenolate Si-NPs significantly improved the morpho-physiological and anatomical parameters of lemongrass plant.
