Authors: Suryanti
Published: January 2024

ABSTRAK
Proses penuaan diikuti berbagai permasalahan kesehatan terutama secara degeneratif yang dapat menimbulkan berbagai macam gangguan, antara lain:  gangguan sulit tidur (insomnia). Olah raga atau aktivitas  fisik akan menstimulatori aktivitas 5-hidroksi-triptamin (5-HT) atau  serotonin.  Pelepasan  5-HT  ke  diensefalon  dan  serebrum  akan membantu menyebabkan  tidur  normal, dengan cara  menginhibisi aktif sistem non-5-HTnergik supraspinal (Nurdianningrum et al., 2016). Senam lansia adalah salah satu aktivitas olahraga yang biasanya dilakukan lansia akan mendorong jantung bekerja optimal, dan membantu menghilangkan radikal bebas yang berkeliaran di dalam tubuh dan terbukti memperbaiki kualitas tidur pada lanjut usia (Sumedi & Kuswati, 2010). Namun senam lansia biasanya hanya dipergunakkan untuk lansia yang sehat dan yang hanya bisa berdiri sedangkan lansia yang tdk kuat berdiri tidak bias melasanakan. Senam Bio Energy Power (BEP) adalah jenis senam di dunia kedokteran disebut Autotherapy. Senam ini merupakan kombinasi  olah energi dan olah gerak yang dirancang untuk mengoptimalkan kemampuan tubuh dalam mengobati diri sendiri baik secara fisik maupun psikis. Karena senam BEP ini sinergis dan sangat mendukung pengobatan medis, sehingga baik dan cocok dilakukan orang yang sehat maupun yang sedang sakit. Senam BEP bias dilakukan oleh lansia baik yang bias berdiri tegak maupun yanghanya bias duduk dikursi roda atau bahkan sambil tiduran, mampu untuk meningkat kualitas tidur lansia (Muhammad Fauzi, 2019).
Tujuan: Mengetahui  Pengaruh Senam BEP Terhadap Kualitas Tidur Pada Lansia Di Panti Wredha Dharma Bakti Kasih Surakarta. Metodologi penelitian:  Metode quasy experiment dengan rancangan penelitian non equivalent control group design. Dilaksanakan di Panti Wredha Darma Bakti Kasih  dan Panti Lansia Aisyiyah Surakarta. Dengan diberi eksperimen senam BEP di Panti Wredha Darma Bakti Kasih, dan senam lansia di Panti Lansia Aisyiyah  2 kali seminggu selama 2 minggu. Hasil dan pembahasan:  Senam BEP berpengaruh pada peningkatan kualitas tidur  pada lansia dengan nilai  p= 0.000. Senam ini akan menimbulkan efek fisik dan psikologis dengan melalui beberapa mekanisme yaitu: pertama dengan aktifitas serotonin, yang akan menginisiasi tidur. Kedua menekan aktivasi inflamasi, Mekanisme ketiga yaitu Peningkatan relaksasi. Kesimpulan; Senam BEP berpengaruh terhadap tingkat kualitas tidur pada lansia, Senam BEP dan Senam lansia berpengaruh terhadap tingkat depresi  pada lansia.

Authors: Fathi Muhammad , Sisybania Sisybania , Akbar Muh Syaiful
Published: January 2024

Background: Pregnancy begins at conception and lasts until childbirth. During this period, pregnant women experience both psychological and physical changes that can lead to back pain. The initial cause of back pain is the forward growth of the uterus, which shifts the center of gravity of the earth towards the lower body. To help alleviate back pain in pregnant women, a maternity belt can be used to increase lumbopelvic stability by simultaneously pressing on the sacroiliac joint surface and positioning the sacroiliac joint in a specific position to enhance stability. In this research, before and after the intervention, the level of pain will be measured using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Objective: to determine whether the level of back pain in second-trimester pregnant women decreases after using a maternity belt. Method and Subjects: This study is a quasi-experiment with a pre-test and post-test design. Samples were chosen using purposive sampling. The research instrument used the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) and was analyzed using the Wilcoxon test with SPSS. Results: The pain scale before using the maternity belt had a minimum value of 3 (mild pain), a maximum value of 6 (moderate pain) with an average of 4.44 (moderate pain), whereas the pain scale after using the maternity belt had a minimum value of 1 (mild pain), a maximum value of 2 (mild pain) with an average of 1.32 (mild pain). Conclusion: There is an effect of using a maternity belt on the reduction of the degree of pain before and after using the maternity belt by 3.12 where p=0.000 (p<0.05)

Relación empírica entre sólidos disueltos totales y conductividad eléctrica en las piscinas de cultivo piscícola del Centro Experimental de Investigación y Producción Amazónica de la Universidad Estatal Amazónica
Authors: Jimenez Jumbo Luis David , Arias Ramírez Bryan Josué , Arias Pastuna Mayra Alexandra , Reyes Cordova Álvaro Luis José
Published: January 2024

La producción piscícola en el Centro Experimental de Investigación y Producción Amazónica (CEIPA) monitorea la calidad de agua mediante los análisis físico-químicos; por ello, un parámetro determinante son los sólidos disueltos totales (TDS). Debido a que la medición de TDS lleva mucho tiempo, a menudo se estima a partir de la conductividad eléctrica (CE), asumiendo que los sólidos disueltos son predominantemente especies iónicas de concentración suficientemente baja para producir una relación lineal TDS-CE: TDS (mg/L) = k e × CE (μS/cm) donde k e es una constante de proporcionalidad. Las piscinas pueden tener niveles de TDS de 20.000 a más de 300.000 mg/L, donde la formación de pares iónicos y los solutos no ionizados invalidan una relación simple TDS-EC. Por lo tanto, se evaluó la composición y relación TDS-EC de todas las piscinas de cultivo piscícola del CEIPA periódicamente por un lapso de 1 año. Por debajo de una CE de 60 μS/cm, se puede estimar el TDS (mg/L) el modelo más común, el cual es el lineal teniendo que TDS = 0.809*CE + 1.449. Sin embargo, teniendo en cuenta todos das las piscinas el modelo que mejor se adapto es la cuartica teniendo un coeficiente de determinación de 0.987. Cabe recalcar que el modelo logístico se adaptaría para CE superiores a los 120 μS/cm; ya que, el modelo de regresión cuartico tiene un crecimiento exponencial a partir de los 85 μS/cm debiéndose a que tiende a un comportamiento de un flujo geodésico.

Robust Sparse Sufficient Dimension Reduction via Adaptive Lasso Penalty
Authors: Alkenani Ali , Dikheel Tahir
Published: January 2024

In some multi-index models applications, there is an important role for dimension reduction and variable selection (VS) methods. The ALMAVE is a method for variables selection under sufficient dimension reduction theory settings. It combines the adaptive Lasso and MAVE (minimum average variance estimation) to produce sparse and accurate solutions. The ALMAVE is a very sensitive method to outliers in the response y due to use the least-squares criterion. In this article, we proposed robust ALMAVE. Also, an efficient estimation algorithm was proposed. The simulation studies and Logo design data analysis were employed to check the effectiveness of ALMAVE.

Carbonate Deposition in Turloughs (Seasonal Lakes) on the Western Limestone Lowlands of Ireland - II: The Sedimentary Record
Authors: Coxon Catherine E. , Coxon Peter
Published: January 2024

Deposits found in seasonal groundwater-fed lakes (turloughs) on the limestone lowland of Ireland were investigated, and of ninety turloughs surveyed, forty-six contained calcareous deposits known as marl, consisting of more than 60%. and frequently more than 90%. calcium carbonate. The pollen record from deposits found in two turloughs in Co. Mayo suggests that the marl dates from the early Holocene (c. 10,000–9.000 years B.P.) when the turloughs were permanent lakes.

Alluvial Heavy Minerals as Indicators of Late Pleistocene Ice Flow in the Irish Midlands
Authors: Gallagher Colman
Published: January 2024

The alluvial heavy minerals of Slieve Bloom consist of an allochthonous group, glacially imported from the Carboniferous limestone piedmont, and an autochthonous group derived from the Lower Palaeozoic rocks of Slieve Bloom. The spatial distribution of each group is distinct from the other along the river valleys; the allochthonous minerals are found only where till is being fluvialiy eroded; the autochthonous dominate in valley reaches devoid of till. Given this spatial arrangement, it is proposed that the distribution of allochthonous minerals now hosted by alluvial sediments reflects the pattern of glacial depositional processes within the mountains, in particular a directionally specific distance decay in the carryover of minerals from the limestone piedmont into Slieve Bloom.

From Dursey to Darrit-Uliga-Delap: an insular odyssey
Authors: Royle Stephen A.
Published: January 2024

Let me begin by expressing my pride at being President of the Geographical Society of Ireland. As is immediately obvious from my accent. I was not raised in Ireland but on that larger island to the east. I am what used to be that rare thing, a migrant to Ireland. I am a migrant who has acculturated. 'We', i.e. Ulster, recently became the European rugby champions by beating a French side: 'we', i.e. Ireland, then just lost to France at rugby; a few days later England -no 'we'- lost heavily to France at soccer. To be acculturated is one thing; to be accepted is another, and to be accepted by my colleagues by being asked to become President of the Geographical Society of Ireland is an honour indeed and I thank the Society sincerely for it. My wife and I moved to Northern Ireland, for me to take up employment at Queen's University Belfast, in January 1976. Our three children were born and raised in Belfast and our family ties to Queen's were strengthened when our daughter read Geography and History there and we shared the unusual experience of her taking two of my courses. So my life - our lives - have become centred on this island of Ireland.

Dublin and its vicinity in 1797
Authors: Loeber Rolf , Stouthamer-Loeber Magda
Published: January 2024

This paper presents an hitherto unnoticed travel journal, describing Dublin and its vicinity in the summer and autumn of 1797. Its anonymous author, P.S., had a keen eye for architecture and describes many public buildings in the metropolis, such as the newly built Custom House and the Four Courts. In and outside of the city, he gives an account of private mansions, such as Leinster House, Charlemont House, Castletown House, Carton, and Lord Charlemont's Casino at Marino. The travel journal also focuses on landscape scenery and presents descriptions of demesnes, waterfalls and garden cottages and temples, many features of which have been since lost.
