Authors: Handayani Fitri Kurnia , Megawaty
Published: April 2024

Effective management of archival documents is vital in the educational sector as it plays a crucial role in decision-making and preserving historical records. Archives are a valuable resource that contains a wealth of information for any organization. However, the traditional method of physical document management at Sekayu 2 Negeri Vocational School has led to a significant accumulation of documents, making the process both ineffective and inefficient. This situation has created an urgent need for faster access to information. To address this issue, the school has developed an Electronic Archive for Academic Data that aims to streamline the archiving process, making it more efficient and effective. The primary objectives of this initiative are to facilitate faster retrieval of information and to reduce the physical storage space required for documents. The E-Archive for Academic Data at Sekayu 2 Negeri Vocational School was developed using the PHP programming language and the MySQL database. The introduction of this digital filing system is expected to significantly reduce the time needed to access archives and decrease the physical storage space required, thereby enhancing efficiency and effectiveness at SMK Negeri 2 Sekayu.

Authors: Qubra Rama , Saputra Rizal Adi
Published: April 2024

The rampant dissemination of false and unsourced information, commonly known as hoaxes, has become a pervasive issue in the era of internet media. In the digital age, the widespread dissemination of false and unverified information has emerged as a critical concern within the realm of internet media. Hoax news can be used to influence elections, sway public opinion, and create political instability. The rapid evolution of information technology has contributed to the uncontrollable proliferation of hoax content, necessitating the development of intelligent systems for effective classification. This research focuses on implementing a robust classification system for identifying hoax news circulating through internet media. The method used in this program is the Naive Bayes method, specifically Naive Bayes Multinomial, which works with the assumption that each feature (word) is considered independent from the others. Text vectorization using CountVectorizer converts text into a numeric vector, which can be used by classification algorithms. This program uses a trained model to make predictions on testing data and calculate evaluation metrics such as accuracy, confusion matrix, and classification reports. By leveraging these methodologies, the study aims to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of distinguishing genuine news from deceptive hoaxes. The highest accuracy value obtained in this research was 94.73% with a division of 20% test data and 80% training data. True Negative (TN): 4555, False Positive (FP): 178 and False Negative (FN): 295, True Positive (TP): 3952

Published: April 2024

The present-day environment is experiencing a rapid technological evolution that fundamentally shifts our understanding of knowledge into a more accessible and open entity. This transformative progression is redefining the practical application of competencies, concepts, and insights and exerting a profound impact on various facets of education. This paradigmatic transition, catalyzed by the pervasive influence of technology, is particularly pertinent in education, where its metamorphic contributions are conspicuously manifest. As the educational milieu continues to undergo metamorphosis, the future pedagogical and didactic methodologies will inevitably bear the indelible imprint of technological advancements. Concurrently, educators are confronted with the distinctive imperative of effectively engaging the emergent cohort of learners, commonly referred to as Generation Alpha, within the context of higher education. A pronounced entrepreneurial disposition characterizes Generation Alpha and is notably predisposed to embracing innovation and advancement, with a significant proportion of its members harboring aspirations of pursuing tertiary education. The present study undertakes a proactive stance in envisioning the educational dynamics and prospects that will define the forthcoming landscape of higher education, with a focal lens on the distinctive attributes of Generation Alpha. This entails a comprehensive inquiry into their favored pedagogical modalities, cognitive perspectives, and educational anticipations. The study embraces a robust theoretical framework anchored in the distinctive attributes of Generation Alpha, attributes invariably molded by the inexorable march of technological progress. In a complementary manner, the study derives insights from a triad of discrete empirical investigations conducted across diverse locales, including New Zealand, Iran, Iraq, and Jordan.

This study examines the seasonal variation of particulate matter (PM10; PM2.5) concentrations within Federal University Otuoke, Nigeria. The study is premised on monitoring and assessing PM10 and PM2.5 in the environment of the university. Dustmate and Kane 100-1 and 3.5.1 RS-1361C-Humidity/Temperature meter were used in sampling between the hours of 8am to 5pm per day in five day per week for a period of 6month which covers both the rainy and dry season. The sampled concentration of PM10 and PM 2.5 obtained was compared with the guidelines of “The National Ambient Air Quality Standard” established by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for compliance and regulation. Descriptive statistically methods were used in data analysis. The Results revealed that the averages PM10 are 116.71 µg/m3 and 107.25 µg/m3, while PM 2.5 records as 27.52 µg/m3 and 32.21 µg/m3 respectively. Relative humidity was also recorded 55.53 µg/m3 and 73.74 µg/m3. Similarly the results in both seasons shows the total average of PM10 as 100.19 µg/m3 and 110.07 µg/m3, PM 2.5 records 23.88 µg/m3 and 23.37 µg/m3 while relative humidity records 55.78 µg/m3 and 68.18 µg/m3 respectively. These were significantly influenced by the relative humidity of the environment of Federal University Otuoke. The study concludes that the seasonal variation of the relative humidity has an effect on the PM10 and PM2.5 concentrations and consequently the air quality of the university, hence further research into methods that will reduce particulate matter, as well as strategic environmental management policies within the university and beyond is recommended.

One promising way to use quantum information to secure everyday communication is through the distribution of quantum keys. By exchanging a secret key, the Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) approach allows two parties to communicate securely.BB84 protocol is among the most well-known QKD protocols. In this protocol, qubits are exchanged via a quantum channel between the sender and the receiver. This enables them to produce a shared key that is impenetrable to eavesdroppers and illustrate the fundamental ideas of QKD using current simulations and implementations. The results of this study demonstrate that the BB84 protocol is a highly secure QKD technique that has been investigated in great detail and used in a variety of contexts. Additionally, over the enhancements made to the BB84 protocol such as the use of advanced error correction techniques and decoy states to increase its security and usability is discussed. With an emphasis on the BB84 protocol in secure communication technologies, this study offers an extensive analysis of QKD systems overall.

In the year 2019, 121 patients were admitted to the Casavatore Hospice. All patients, upon admission, exhibited pressure ulcers (Ldp) in both stages I and II. A portion of the patients with stage II ulcers were treated with advanced dressings containing micronized silver (20 patients), resulting in a regression of the ulcer to stage I. Subsequently, they were treated with topical application of silver sulfadiazine cream until complete healing of the lesion. Patients who did not have favorable indications for the application of such treatment were treated with Sofargen cream (60 patients), nonetheless preventing the worsening of the stage of the pressure ulcer. Patients with stage I ulcers (41 patients) were treated daily with silver sulfadiazine spray, which still contributed to the prevention of secondary lesions associated with immobility.

The objective of managing pressure ulcers in bedridden or terminal patients has been fully achieved within dignified care times and, above all, with reduced company costs.

As a final result, considering the current prices for both dressings and the specific drug, we achieved an economic savings exceeding 35%, highlighting how it is possible to implement, in various aspects and situations, important yet simple care approaches while respecting therapeutic appropriateness and patient compliance.

Authors: Rosario Martín G.
Published: April 2024

HIV can cause numerous health-related complications, which can lead to disabilities that affect the quality of life. Purpose: The primary objective of this study was to conduct a thorough investigation of the potential effects of a sedentary lifestyle (SDL) on the cardio-motor profile of Hispanic Latinos living with HIV. Methods: A submaximal cardiovascular test (Ross Test) was conducted to obtain cardiomotor results. Retrospective data was collected from the cardiomotor data, which was collected from records of members enrolled at the HIV fitness center in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Results: Two hundred ninety-one participants were designated 250 in the non-SD and SD groups. The SD group displayed a comparable Cd4 count value (626.3+/-334.5) to the non-SD group (677.9+/-453.1). Both groups had comparable CD4 counts. An ANOVA comparison determined variations in the SD group, with a reduced treadmill inclination distinguished from the counterpart. Conclusion: Motor parameters are deficient in patients with both conditions. It seems the more challenging gait motor components are the first signs of those surviving with HIV who live an SDL. We encourage healthcare providers to incorporate specific cardio-motor items alluded to in this investigation to identify the process influencing gait that further alters the quality of life of those with HIV.

Hippocrates, the "Father of Rhinology," provided detailed descriptions of nasal polypoidal tumors and nasal complex from 460-370 B.C. His writings are the earliest known sinus anatomy, with anatomists studying primates and mammals focusing on paranasal air sinuses. This systematic review explores the link between anatomical variations in the sinonasal region and sinus pathology, providing a comprehensive understanding of the prevalence, types, and clinical implications, thereby aiding clinicians in making informed decisions and improving patient outcomes. A thorough search of PubMed, Google Scholar, Research Gate and PRISMA guidelines were used to perform this review, with subjects related to the study's title as the primary search criteria. We used the following search terms: nasal blockage, paranasal sinus, sinus pathology, and nasal-respiratory complex. Anatomical variations in the ostiomeatal complex, found in 83.5% of cases, significantly impact sinus drainage and ventilation, leading to sinus pathology. Variations like deviated nasal septum, concha bullosa, and agger nasi cells obstruct mucus and air flow, causing sinusitis. Studies show a clear association between anatomical variations and chronic sinusitis, highlighting the importance of considering these variations when evaluating patients with sinus pathology. Nasal polyps are another common pathology associated with anatomical variations in the sinonasal region. Sinusitis is the most common condition affecting the nose and paranasal sinuses, which are affected by trauma, tumors, and sphenoid sinuses. Staphylococcus bacteria, found on skin and nasal cavities, can infect people. Sinonasal disease encompasses a range of illnesses, from inflammatory to malignant, and is the fifth leading cause of antibiotic use and the highest frequency across all age groups. Research indicates a correlation between anatomical variations in the sinonasal area and sinus pathology, particularly in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis. Careful assessment and CT are crucial for identifying and treating these variations. Further research is needed to fully understand the clinical implications of these variations, as they can significantly impact sinus pathology and the management of sinus conditions.

Background: Hypertension (HTN or HT), also known as high blood pressure or arterial hypertension, is a chronic medical condition in which the blood pressure in the arteries is elevated. Blood pressure is expressed by two measurements, the systolic and diastolic pressures. Purpose/Aim: To investigate the usefulness of C-reactive protein and ESR as biomarkers for the diagnosis of hypertension among hypertensive patients attending gwakor primary health centre. Methods: The study investigated the levels of ESR and CRP among hypertensive subjects. Qualitative and semi quantitative C-reactive protein was carried out on serum and ESR was also done using whole blood. Result: Of the 200 subjects recruited for the study the age distribution of C-reactive protein seropositivity among the study subjects shown that the age between 21-30 had a seropositivity 1(5.6%) with a total Number of 18 within the group, and the age group between 31-40 shown a seropositivity of 5(9.8%) with total number tested within the age group 51, also the age range between 41-50 shown a seropositivity of 6(24.0%) with total number tested to be 25, and the age range between 51-60 had no seropositivity with total number tested were 4, while >60yrs showed 2(100.0%) with total number tested were 2. the highest number of seropositivity observed was in the age range of >60yrs and above, followed by 41-50 with 24%. The highest value observed among the age group of >60yrs was not surprised because this age group are prone to degenerative diseases because of age related conditions as individual aged as shown in table 4.1. The difference observed among the age distribution of CRP seropositivity among the study subjects showed a significance difference which was statistically significant. The sex distribution among the study subject showed that men had seropositivity of 10(19.6%) with a total number of 51 tested, while female showed 4(8.2%) with total number of 49 tested. Conclusion: The findings in this study confirmed that CRP and ESR are good inflammatory markers in the management of hypertensive patients, also CRP is a more sensitive and specific marker compared to ESR, and it also reveal that as individual is aging the risk of developing hypertension is high because elderly people are more expose compared to younger persons.
Assessment of Knowledge, Attitude and Practice of Donors Towards Blood Donation and Outcome of an Intervention to Change the Behavior of Donors- A Systemic Review
Authors: Easmin Fatema , Islam Md. Ashadul
Published: April 2024

Introduction: Blood donation is a remarkably safe medical procedure; however, it is affected by attitudes, beliefs, and knowledge level. Nevertheless, blood is a veritable tool in many life-saving situations. Despite the increased demand for blood, the supply of safe blood has been inadequate. Although blood is the essence of life, and is one of the most precious donations; blood transfusion services are facing shortage of blood all over the world. A significant percentage of people have false beliefs about blood donation. Increase in the level of knowledge and correction of false beliefs should be the top most priority. Therefore, studying factors contributing to their knowledge, attitude and practice of blood donation is essential. There are studies that investigated the effectiveness of interventions or procedure changes in blood donation settings on outcomes including donor deferral, disclosure of risk factors, and rates of errors and omissions. Researchers also identified several interventions to improve donor compliance that have been tested in blood donation settings and provided evidence for the effectiveness of computerized interviews in improving detection of risk factors. Interventions can utilize the processes of change (POC) measure to guide stage matched interventions to encourage use of relevant experiential and behavioral strategies to increase blood donation. Interventions to recruit and retain blood donors in the general population have been classified into six approaches: motivation, reminders and commitments, altruism, measurement of cognitions, incentives, cognition based. Effective recruitment and retention are two different processes and may require different approaches. For example, retention may be influenced more by interventions that focus on actions during or after donation rather than interventions prior to the blood donation appointment. Educational intervention was effective in improving the knowledge and attitude towards voluntary blood donation among medical students. Continuous enlightenment will influence potential blood donors to have better knowledge and positive attitude toward voluntary blood donation.

High-fidelity simulation (HFS) stands out as a pivotal asset in nursing education, particularly for honing medication administration skills. This review, aligned with PRISMA guidelines, analyzed 148 studies spanning 2012 to 2023, with only seven meeting inclusion criteria. Despite methodological limitations in the selected studies, a consistent trend suggests that HFS significantly enhances knowledge, competence, and confidence in safe medication administration among undergraduate nursing students. Importantly, the selection of HFS or other approaches should be contingent upon specific goals and intended learning outcomes. Notably, intervention groups consistently outperformed control groups, underscoring HFS's efficacy in elevating students' capabilities. However, the overall quality of the included studies was moderate, highlighting the need for more robust methodologies in future research. This study underscores HFS as a valuable approach in nursing education, providing essential insights for effective teaching practices. It emphasizes the imperative to consider alternative approaches based on educational goals and learning outcomes while advocating for further research on cost-effectiveness, measurement tools, and optimal simulation session duration.
