Published: October 2023

Posyandu activities can prevent malnutrition, currently visits to posyandu are still low where visits to posyandu have only reached 62.16%, so efforts are made for government involvement to increase visits to posyandu with the SAMBAL MATAH innovation, namely Visit Toddlers with the Government, government involvement in posyandu activities are very important to increase visits to posyandu. This type of research uses a quasy experimental research design, namely pre post-test with control group design. The population in this study were all mothers with toddlers of 93 people with a purposive sampling sample, as many as 17 people in the experimental group and 17 people in the control group. The measuring tool uses attendance documentation data from the posyandu and the MCH handbook. Data analysis used the Mann Whitney test. Visits to the posyandu before the intervention 100% did not visit and after the intervention 94.1% visited the posyandu. Visits to the posyandu before the WA Group conducted 100% did not visit and after the WA Group 11.7% visited the Posyandu. There is a relationship between SAMBAL MATAH activities and visits to posyandu for mothers with toddlers in the Work Area of the Handil Baru Health Center, Tanjung Harapan Village, with a p value of 0.000. Government involvement in supporting posyandu activities can provide motivation for mothers who have toddlers to bring their toddlers to posyandu because SAMBAL MATAH activities apart from providing motivation also provide information about the importance of posyandu activities

Mencatat Wajo dalam Regsosek, Menghadirkan Wajah Indonesia
Authors: Muhammad Alie Humaedi  , Fatwa Nurul Hakim
Published: October 2023

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menarasikan emik Registrasi Sosial Ekonomi di Kabupaten Wajo Sulawesi Selatan. Penarasian emik pada aktivitas Regsosek berarti menunjukkan adanya upaya mengangkat perspektif dan praktik lokal dalam menerjemahkan aktivitas yang bersifat etik, baik berupa kebijakan, program ataupun strategi yang berskala nasional dan general. Penerjemahan itu bisa dilihat dari kelompok masyarakat sebagai kelompok target yang didata ataupun para agen penghubung pelaksana kegiatan nasional tersebut. Penarasian emik Regsosek menjadi kekuatan tersendiri dalam mengungkap kedalaman data dan sisi sosial-politik atas data yang bersifat lokal. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan metode etnografi dengan wawancara mendalam dan memahami gesture maupun habit dari informan. Hasil penelitian di Kabupaten Wajo mengungkap bahwa aspek sosialisasi dan peningkatan kesadaran atas pentingnya data menjadi bagian strategi yang perlu diperkuat. Melalui jejaring perangkat pemerintah dari tingkat provinsi hingga desa, upaya ini harus dilakukan secara maksimal. Hal lainnya, kelembagaan sosial tradisi pun sebenarnya dapat berfungsi untuk mendukung sosialisasi dan peningkatan kesadaran masyarakat itu. Sayangnya, kelembagaan formal dan informal ini seringkali disfungsi karena dilingkupi dengan rasa khawatir atas “pertanggungjawaban pendataan” yang berhubungan langsung dengan program bantuan dari pemerintah. Kelembagaan sosial tradisi yang seharusnya aktif dan menguatkan kesadaran, lebih memilih untuk “diam dan menjaga jarak”, sama pilihannya dengan para perangkat desa untuk tidak ikut serta dalam proses sosialisasi. Kenyataan inilah yang menjadi tantangan tersendiri dalam pelaksanaan program Regsosek di Kabupaten Wajo, selain tantangan substansi yang melekat pada persoalan hidup masyarakatnya sendiri. Kemiskinan ekstrem, dampak pembangunan dan perkawinan muda merupakan tiga problema akut yang menghantui kehidupan masyarakat Wajo. Tiga aspek ini pula yang menjadi “batas-batas” yang harus dijaga ketika proses pendataan dilakukan. Kesalahan menanyakan sesuatu yang berada pada tiga aspek itu, sama saja menghadirkan ketidakpercayaan, ketidaknyamanan, dan ketidakakuratan data yang diperolehnya. Dalam rangkaian pelaksanaan Regsosek, BPS Kabupaten Wajo telah membuktikan dirinya sebagai pelaksana mandat negara yang baik dan bertanggungjawab. Proses pelaksanaannya pun menjadi suatu pelajaran baik bagi kelembagaan negara lainnya dalam mengkoordinasikan suatu kegiatan berskala nasional.

Published: October 2023

Ketepatan dan keakuratan data menjadi hal yang krusial dalam reformasi sistem perlindungan sosial. Karenanya, kehadiran Regsosek memberi harapan baru akan tersedianya data sosial ekonomi masyarakat yang komprehensif. Perjalanan Regsosek di Kota Balikpapan turut memotret berbagai keragaman yang dimiliki oleh kota ini, serta mengungkap kondisi sosial, kerentanan, dan fakta kerawanan di masing-masing kawasan: area perkebunan dengan kehidupan keras dan kegigihan para perantau, kemiskinan dan sanitasi yang buruk pada perumahan kumuh terselip dekat pusat kota, hingga kerawanan sosial di pemukiman pelabuhan. Kendala yang ditemui dalam proses pendataan diantaranya adalah: ketersediaan waktu responden, kondisi geografis yang sulit di sebagian wilayah perkebunan, ketidaksesuaian data prelist, meningkatnya prevalensi Covid-19 di beberapa area, eksklusifitas warga di kawasan elit, hingga keterbatasan sinyal yang menyulitkan petugas dalam melakukan tagging lokasi. Pendataan secara berkelompok dilakukan di beberapa kawasan karena faktor keamanan pada area dengan kerawanan sosial tinggi. Keterbukaan masyarakat dalam menyampaikan data serta peran ketua SLS dalam verifikasi awal data prelist menjadi hal yang vital dalam memperoleh data yang tepat dan akurat. Dukungan, koordinasi, kolaborasi, dan sinergi berbagai pihak dalam tiap pelaksanaan tahap kegiatan Regsosek menjadi faktor penguat terhadap kesuksesan Regsosek di Kota Balikpapan untuk menghasilkan basis data yang valid.

Published: October 2023

This work has considered the modern ideas on the mechanism of surface modification for used nanodispersed inorganic modifiers with an acidic surface, which significantly affect the hydrate and transport properties of polymeric proton-conducting electrolytes. Authors have proposed an alternative approach consisting of the synthesis of new composite nanoscale systems characterized by high ionic conductivity and developed a method for obtaining composite materials with "core-shell" structure based on an inorganic proton conductor (polyantimonic acid) modified with silicon oxide. The surface morphology of the synthesized nanoparticles has been studied by transmission electron microscopy, and their sizes have been determined. The data on frequency dependence of the electrical impedance are presented and the behavior of the active and reactive components of the impedance and conductivity in the frequency range from 100 Hz to 1 MHz has been analyzed. An equivalent electrical circuit simulating the impedance dispersion for obtained composites with "core-shell" structure based on PAA and SiO2 has been proposed.
Children's discourse on peer relationships in “glass backyards” during the distance learning period
Authors: Nowosielska Edyta
Published: October 2023

The article is an attempt to recognise and describe the specificity of peer relationships in “glass backyards” during the time of distance learning based on the discourse of students of grades I-III. Five groups of first-grade students (7- and 8-year-old children) and five groups of third-grade students (9- and 10-year-old children) from selected schools from all over Poland took part in the research. The research method used was focus group interviews. The children's statements showed how much importance they attached to relationships with peers during distance learning. “Glass backyards” provided them with topics for conversation and fun, as well as encouraged their activities around common passions and interests. From an educational point of view, “glass backyards” were beneficial for children creating the space for social life. We should ask the question whether “glass backyards” can become backyards of direct relationships and emotions for children? Today we must consider them as something inevitable, see their meaning and believe that for modern children they can become an additional place to develop relationships with peers.

Authors: Azócar Patricia , Valdés-González Marisela , Garrido-Suárez Bárbara B. , Fernández-Alfonso Maria S. , Garrido Gabino
Published: October 2023

Context: Self-medication is a self-care practice. It is a frequent and widespread habit in all societies and does not distinguish between sex and age. Therefore, students are not exempt from using this practice. Aims: To carry out a systematic review of scientific articles published between 2010 and 2020 on self-medication in university students of careers related to medical and biological sciences with PRISMA guidelines. Methods: A standardized search was performed in four databases with the following terms: Automedicación (in Spanish), Self-medication, Automedication, University Student, and Students. For the selection of studies, the Rayyan® tool was used. The most relevant information on self-medication of university students was collected. Results: Fourteen articles were included and evaluated as high, medium, and low quality with the AXIS tool. The results of the study reflected a high self-medication in university students of careers related to medical and biological sciences, with a higher prevalence of self-medication in women than in men. The more knowledge these students have, the greater their self-medication and, thus, they always maintain this practice, being the most indicated causes for it the problems in the respiratory tract, headaches, and gastrointestinal problems. The main reasons for these students to practice self-medication are the knowledge they have acquired in their curricula, due to past experiences with the same symptoms and minor illnesses. Pharmacies, through friends, relatives or neighbors and home medicine cabinets are the most common places for the acquisition of medications by these students, indicating that analgesics/anti-inflammatories, antibiotics, and antipyretics are the most used medications among them. Conclusions: These students practice self-medication because they consider they have sufficient knowledge about diseases and their treatments, which gives them more confidence in making the decision to self-medicate. Subsequently, self-knowledge is a decisive reason for self-medication. Moreover, self-medication patterns regarding the use of drugs from various therapeutic categories vary among medical and biological sciences university students from different countries.
A Review on Optimizing Medication Delivery: Losartan Potassium and Hydrochlorothiazide in Microbeads and Granules
Authors: Debbarma Bimal , Tyagi Chandra Kishore
Published: October 2023

The objective of this study was to design and optimize losartan potassium sustained release and hydrochlorothiazide immediate release formulations. The microbeads are prepared by ionic gellation technique. To evaluate the physical parameters, in-vitro drug release and stability studies formulated tablets were performed. The in-vitro drug release of the optimized formulation was compared with that of the marketed product. Losartan potassium sustained release microbeads offer slow and sustained release of the medication over a period of time. Furthermore Hydrochlorothiazide granules were prepared and then evaluated. The formulation of immediate release granules of hydrochlorothiazide is a promising approach to improve the bioavailability of the drug and reduce its side effects. Hydrochlorothiazide granules allow for a more rapid onset of action, which can be beneficial in patients with acute symptoms. Combining these two medications can be beneficial for patients with hypertension as they can provide both immediate and sustained relief from symptoms.

Published: October 2023

Considering the fact that food contains many nutrients that can be exploited and used by man. The study assesses the impact of instant noodles prepared with natural spice and noodles seasoning on changes in body weight and hemato-biochemical parameters in a model using albino rats. Nine (9) distinct groups of six (6) Wistar rats each were given instant noodles with seasoning and one with natural spice (40g of crayfish and 30g of onion) for 90 days. The Wistar rats were divided into 54 groups. While groups 2 through 9 served as the treatment groups and were given variously prepared instant noodles and rat pellets, group 1 served as the control group was given rat pellet and tap water. Using established techniques, all biochemical parameters were examined. The findings revealed that there were no appreciable variations in the body weight of Wistar rats in any of the experimental groups. In comparison to those fed instant noodles cooked with noodle seasoning, those fed instant noodles prepared with natural spice show significantly higher development rates (P< 0.05). Furthermore, rats given quick noodles had a non-significant rise (p > 0.05) in the concentration of total protein. Additionally, the albumin concentration in these groups increased significantly (P < 0.05),when compared to  rats fed noodles prepared with seasoning to rats fed noodles prepared with natural spice, non-significant differences (p> 0.05) were observed in the blood parameters. Spiced instant noodles are not safe to eat. It is thus advised that users of instant noodles reduce the amount of spices used, as cooking with natural spices appears to mitigate the effect of free radicals deposited on the spices.

Geochronology of reworked ash and its implications for accommodation space variations in distal foreland basins, McMurray Formation, Alberta, Canada
Authors: Fietz Susanne W. , Crowley Jim L. , MacEachern James A. , Dashtgard Shahin E. , Gibson H. Dan
Published: October 2023

A bentonite bed consisting of reworked volcanic ash from the Barremian to Aptian lower McMurray Formation is dated using chemical abrasion thermal ionization mass spectrometry (CA-TIMS) on zircon. The bentonite bed is from a cored interval in the McKay Paleovalley in the northern Athabasca Oil Sands Region of Alberta, Canada. Deposition of the lower McMurray Formation took place in the distal portion of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin early in the Cretaceous-to-Paleocene phase of widespread contractional deformation in the Canadian Cordillera. A 30 g sample of volcanic ash yielded >10,000 very small (<50 µm) zircon grains with the vast majority (~99.7%) being highly abraded and clearly detrital. Twenty-six sharply faceted grains were sufficiently large to be mounted for laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICPMS) analysis, which yielded seven Lower Cretaceous dates. These Lower Cretaceous grains were further analyzed using CA-TIMS. The five youngest CA-TIMS dates agree with a weighted mean of 121.51 ± 0.11 Ma which is conservatively interpreted as a maximum depositional age (MDA). The good agreement between the five zircon dates indicates the MDA is probably the depositional age. This study demonstrates that with careful analysis of zircon populations, high-confidence MDAs can be derived even from reworked ash beds that are dominated overwhelmingly by detrital zircon. The date from this study overlaps a previously published MDA of 121.39 ± 0.27 Ma for the top of the lower McMurray Formation in Firebag Tributary in the northeastern Athabasca Oil Sands Area. The overlapping dates establish a widespread chronostratigraphic surface within the northern Athabasca Oil Sands Area. Both ages are from ash beds preserved in coal seams, suggesting that the coal-bearing interval is a regional marker bed and that the ash beds may form an intraformational datum. Further, the occurrence of the ash beds in the McMurray Formation in close proximity to regional flooding surfaces suggests that tectonic activity in the emerging Canadian Cordillera influenced accommodation space variations in the distal portions of the adjacent foreland basin.

Resumo

Introdução: O presente artigo relata a experiência na construção de um projeto voltado à maternidade/paternidade de pessoas gestantes que vivem ou convivem com o HIV e de homens transgêneros grávidos, atendidas(os) no Centro de Referência e Treinamento DST/AIDS de São Paulo, Ambulatório de Gestantes e integrante do Grupo de Pré-Natal, em São Paulo/SP, Brasil. Objetivo: O Projeto tem como proposta a orientação em relação aos primeiros cuidados com o bebê, visando contribuir para minimizar as dificuldades encontradas durante o pós-parto e os cuidados iniciais com o recém-nascido, colaborando para a promoção de uma relação mais saudável e segura deste binômio. Metodologia: O método utilizado foram as oficinas: encontros coletivos, com interação e troca de saberes de maneira horizontalizada, com uma dinâmica de transmissão de conhecimento, mas, também, de dinâmica participativa e reflexiva. Resultados: Observou-se grande carência de serviços voltados para as questões emocionais desses momentos singulares que são a gestação e o puerpério, e que grande parte das pessoas gestantes que participaram não possuíam informações corretas ou atualizadas sobre os primeiros cuidados com o bebê. Considerações Finais: Constatou-se a necessidade de que trabalhos com características similares sejam desenvolvidos em outras instituições, estendendo-os a outros profissionais de saúde, trazendo novas contribuições na perspectiva de um cuidado mais humanizado.

A identidade de gênero é conceituada como a forma como uma pessoa se vê e vivência seu próprio corpo. Trans se refere-se à pessoa cuja identidade de gênero é diferente do sexo que lhe foi atribuído ao nascimento. Existem poucas informações acerca da saúde bucal dessa população e poucos estudos que existem apontam que a saúde bucal nessa população é pior que a média geral. Estudos na área de piscologia que lidam com a população constataram que experiências negativas relacionadas à identidade de gênero podem levar ao chamado "estresse de minoriais". Por isso, essa população apresenta prevalências mais altas de transtornos mentais, o que causaria um aumento na prevalência de transtornos que são afetados pelo estresse. A saúde bucal é um dos fatores considerados na avaliação da saúde geral. Assim, problemas decorrentes dessas experiências negativas incidem frequentemente na saúde bucal uma vez que a vulnerabilidade que acomete essa população está diretamente ligada as alterações bucais, que são de etiologia multifatorial e uma delas envolve o emocional. Além disso, o profissional deve estar atento ao abuso de substâncias nocivas, uso de hôrmonios sem acompanhamento, violência interpessoal e patologias que podem acometer essa população. Por isso, o cirurgião-dentista deve estar apto a acolher, diagnosticar e tratar tais distúrbios demandado por esses pacientes. É necessário que inicialmente, os profissionais dentistas se aprimorarem em relação as questões de gênero e sexualidade a fim de evitar o surgimento e disseminação do preconceito, além disso, os profissionais devem ser contribuintes com as mudanças sociais atuais, mantendo-se atualizados quanto aos direitos dessa população de forma a assegurar atendimentos acolhedores que não discriminem em razão de idade, raça, cor, etnia, orientação sexual ou identidade gênero.

Evaluation of methods of counterfactual explanation - A qualitative and quantitative analysis
Authors: Krauss Omar F. de P. e , Balbino Marcelo de S. , Nobre Cristiane N.
Published: October 2023

There is currently a growing concern about the explainability of machine learning algorithms. Explainability refers to the ability to understand and interpret the decisions made by the models, that is, the process by which a model arrives at a given prediction or classification. The counterfactual explanation involves creating alternative examples where the models prediction differs from the original. This work aims to raise and discuss essential features in the context of counterfactual explanation methods. For this, the CSSE and LORE methods will be evaluated and applied to twelve public databases, considering different characteristics regarding the number of attributes and data types. In this way, we can better understand their strengths and weaknesses using standardized metrics for different methods. This facilitates the selection and development of more effective strategies and helps to identify cases where one approach may outperform another regarding the quality of explanations. The survey measured the metrics validity, prolixity, sparsity, similarity, and hit rate. In general terms, the CSSE performed better in these metrics, except for sparsity.
