Published: July 2023

Os episódios envolvendo transtornos comportamentais como a ansiedade e a depressão têm aumentado ao longo dos últimos decênios. Ambos os transtornos atuam alterando o humor. Apesar da terapia convencional oferecer um volume considerável de medicamentos ansiolíticos e antidepressivos, ao mesmo tempo, que novos estão sempre sendo desenvolvidos e testados, a aromaterapia surge como prática integrativa que pode ser empregada de forma alternativa ou complementar à medicina convencional. Aquela tem se revelado potencial, contribuindo com a mitigação do quadro de sintomas referentes à ansiedade e depressão. Assim, o presente trabalho tem por objetivo explanar, por meio de uma revisão integrativa, de que forma os óleos essenciais atuam no tratamento dos transtornos de ansiedade e depressão. O estudo se trata de uma revisão integrativa, constituída a partir de artigos que correspondem a estudos e ensaios clínicos publicados em periódicos entre 2018 e 2022. A análise é elaborada a partir de um total de 8 trabalhos selecionados. São estudos sobre a utilização dos óleos essenciais que apontam a aromaterapia como um recurso promissor no tratamento de transtornos mentais e comportamentais, graças à sua ação ansiolítica e antidepressiva, além de promover alivio aos sintomas decorrentes da ansiedade e da depressão. A aromaterapia pode ser uma favorável alternativa complementar ao tratamento medicamentoso da ansiedade e depressão, em virtude da sua ação ansiolítica e antidepressiva, oferecendo uma melhor qualidade de vida e recuperação da saúde dos pacientes.

Authors: Lenz Luis Felipe , Das Neves Patrícia Bueno
Published: July 2023

O emprego de água na suinocultura global é o principal insumo e, consequentemente, elevado. Mas, para que o produtor obtenha resultados positivos técnicos e econômicos, precisa controlar que a água tenha a qualidade correta e seja ministrada na quantidade certa, seguindo as indicações da Instrução Normativa nº 113/2020 do Ministério da Agricultura, Pecuária e Abastecimento-MAPA, acerca da qualidade exigida deste ele-mento líquido, bem como a Instrução Normativa nº 357/2005 do CONAMA, relaciona-da ao uso e controle da água potável destinada ao consumo de humanos e animais. Uma forma de manter a qualidade da água potável na suinocultura é utilizando o dióxido de cloro (ClO2), eficaz numa ampla faixa de pH (4-10) na eliminação de vírus, bactérias e algas. Neste trabalho, objetiva-se apresentar índices zootécnicos da suinocultura parana-ense relacionados com a qualidade da água potável – pH, alcalinidade, dureza e cloração - e o reflexo dela na sanidade do animal evitando a poluição dos efluentes. O procedi-mento metodológico adotado é qualitativo com abordagem indutiva e técnica de pesqui-sa exploratória baseada em uma revisão de literatura. Da pesquisa bibliográfico-documental em sites de revistas científicas como a UNIPAR, a SCIELO, a Biblioteca Digital de Teses e Dissertações (BDTD), e sites do MAPA obteve-se um vasto material de consulta e apoio acerca do tema apresentado. Conclui-se que a qualidade da água na suinocultura deve ser monitorada por um profissional para que a produção seja lucrativa, zelando pelo bem-estar do rebanho, oferecendo-lhes água potável devidamente tratada, evitando a cloração indevida, dureza e alcalinidade fora do padrão exigido por lei.

Authors: Darvishpour Azar , Asgari Tapeh Zahra
Published: July 2023

To prevent the spread of Covid-19, healthcare staff require up-to-date knowledge. There is limited information about the level of knowledge, attitudes, and compliance with Covid-19 guidelines among nursing students in Iran. This study aimed to determine knowledge, attitudes, and compliance with Covid-19 guidelines and related factors among nursing students at Guilan University of Medical Sciences in the north of Iran. This cross-sectional study was conducted on 190 undergraduate nursing students. Samples were recruited by convenience sampling according to the inclusion criteria. The research instruments included demographic characteristics and knowledge, attitude, and practice towards Covid-19 questionnaires. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data using SPSS software version 21 with a significant level of 0.05. In this study, 131 (68.9%), 182 (95.8%), and 81 (42.6%) of the study participants had good knowledge, positive attitude, and good compliance with Covid-19 guidelines, respectively. Results showed that the mean scores of knowledge, attitude, and compliance with Covid-19 guidelines were 14.66 (SD=3.03), 30.35 (SD=4.13), and 11.05 (SD=4.00), respectively. There was a significant relationship between knowledge and some demographic characteristics (gender, job, and housing status), between attitude and gender and economic status, and between compliance and gender and academic semester (P<0.05). Managers can use the results of this research to plan and provide arrangements to improve compliance with precaution guidelines during future events similar to Covid-19.
Submission of Victim Impact Statement to a Sentencing Judge: The Significance of Introducing the Scheme to Sentencing Hearing in Nigeria
Authors: Hambali Yahya
Published: July 2023

The current Nigerian criminal justice system prevents rime victims from having the benefit of telling the sentencing judge what harm they have suffered and how their need for effective recovery may be attended to. Whereas different victim-oriented policies and programmes have emerged in the English criminal justice system and those of some common law countries, the voice of the crime victim is still opaque to the sentencing judge in Nigeria. The Administration of Criminal Justice Act, 2015, which requires a sentencing judge to consider— among others—the interest of the victim in his sentence, leaves the judge with wide discretion that has occasioned some inconsistencies in sentencing outcomes. Accordingly, the article aims to do a comparative study of the English criminal justice system and a few other common law jurisdictions to find out how this lapse in the law can be corrected. The study adopts the doctrinal methodology to discover how the English sentencing judge is assisted to understand and attend to the effects of crime on the victim. The research discovers that the use of the Victim Personal Statement—referred to as Victim Impact Statement (VIS) in other jurisdictions—has tremendously helped both the sentencing judge and the victim in this regard. Accordingly, the article recommends the use of the VIS in the sentencing hearing in Nigeria in order to cover the gap in the law and promote the recognition of the harm suffered by crime victims.
Social Work Journals: A Key Disciplinary Resource
Authors: Morgenshtern Marina , Schmid Jeanette , Levere Chloe
Published: July 2023

Social work journals are repositories of disciplinary knowledge. The recent critiques of Western and anglophone dominance in knowledge production and publication barriers experienced by scholars from the Global South and those non-anglophone have implications for journals and the knowledges they (re)produce. The lack of comprehensive lists of journals adds a further obstacle to the dissemination of non-dominant social work knowledges. To deal with this concern, we offer a novel list of international social work journals that includes journals omitted from existing English-language Northern lists and situates them as credible sources of social work knowledge.
A Phenomenological Study of Perpetrator–Survivor Accounts of Intimate Partner Violence among University Students in South Africa
Authors: Oyedemi Toks Dele , Rabothata Linah
Published: July 2023

South Africa has one of the highest rates of intimate partner violence and femicide in the world. Studies have indicated that poverty and illiteracy contribute to intimate partner violence, and that higher levels of education reduce the rate of intimate partner violence. Considering the role of illiteracy and higher education in the occurrence of intimate partner violence, the aim of this study is to examine why youths at a university perpetrate intimate partner violence and to explore the experiences of survivors of intimate partner violence at a specific institution. Through a phenomenological design influenced by a narrative communication paradigm, in the study, we used face-to-face interviews to explore the opinions and experiences of university students who were perpetrators and survivors of intimate partner violence. The findings indicate that educated youths are not extraneous to a culture of normalisation of violence as a result of male cultural socialisation, expectation of dominance of power, women’s vulnerability and acquiescence. These often result in fatal consequences that describe the prevalence of intimate partner violence in South Africa. We recommend social literacy about violence, gender equality, women’s right and effective legal recourse.
An Intersectional Approach to Access to Justice for Persons with Albinism: A Discussion Article
Authors: Hargovan Hema
Published: July 2023

The quest for access to justice for persons with albinism is a chimera. Adopting a social justice and human rights perspective, in this article, I draw attention to the multiple and complex intersectional forms of discrimination which hinder that quest. In this article, I first define albinism and then highlight a range of issues that may be of interest to researchers, policymakers and practitioners. I explain the ways in which a longstanding tradition of myths and beliefs aggravates the plight of persons with albinism (women, young girls and children in particular) in sub-Saharan Africa. In the belief that a multidisciplinary approach is vital to understanding and responding to the complexities of the issues raised, I provide a detailed and lengthy review of literature drawn from social work, sociology, criminology, victimology, community development and human rights law. In the methodological review, I recommend three complementary approaches that researchers investigating a similar topic may find useful. The discussion concludes with the observation that there is no adequate access to justice for persons with albinism if there is no enforceable legislation. In the article, I identify gaps in the scholarly literature and recommend areas for future research. Finally, I call for the urgent implementation of the National Action Plan to Combat Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance and the reform of the White Paper on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, which will provide greater clarity on the disability status of persons with albinism in both the private and public sector.

Published: July 2023

Objectives:

Diabetes is more prevalent in middle- and higher-income groups and is spreading at an alarming rate. Drug therapy is compulsory because of the chronic and progressive nature of the disease. With such multifactorial background of high prevalence, progressive nature of the disease leading to various complications, increased healthcare cost, and availability of multiple therapeutic regimens prescribed, this study has been done to evaluate the cost-effective analysis of oral hypoglycemic agents.

Materials and Methods:

This is a prospective, parallel group, and comparative observational study conducted by the Department of Pharmacology in collaboration with the Department of Endocrinology at Kalinga Institute of Medical Sciences, Bhubaneswar. The duration of the study was of 2 years. A total number of 220 patients were selected and based on body mass index, patients were categorized into preobese (new and old diabetic patients) and obese (new and old diabetic patients) categories. In this study, cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) was done to evaluate the cost differences between two or more medication groups, with a similar clinical effect. Results of CEA are expressed as an average cost-effectiveness ratio or as an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio.

Results:

From this study, it is observed that in terms of benefit, dual therapy of Metformin and Dapagliflozin was most efficacious followed by Metformin and Sitagliptin as well as Metformin and Glimepiride combinations. If cost is considered, Metformin montherapy and metformin and Glimepiride dual therapy was most cost-effective. In triple regimen, MET+VOG+GLIM combination was seen to be more cost effective than gliptin combination, both in terms of control of FBS as well as PPBS. The cost of treatment goes parallel with duration of disease, being higher in the old cases of long-standing duration.

Conclusion:

The present study shows that SGLT2 inhibitors are better class of oral hypoglycemics in terms of long-term benefits and this group is prescribed as dual therapy more frequently but cost of therapy is the greatest barrier. Metformin and Sulfonylureas remain the most beneficial combination, both in terms of efficacy and cost. The cost of treatment was varying, depending on the duration of disease, being higher in old cases and lower in new cases.
ROMAN PERIOD GRAVE INSIDE THE STONE CIRCLE AT THE SAMBIAN-NATANGIAN SCHLAKALKEN-2 - ZAOSTROV'E-2 CEMETERY
Authors: Казанский М.М. , Мастыкова А.В.
Published: July 2023

Рассматривается погребение римского времени в каменном ящике, заключенном в каменный круг на могильнике Шлакалькен-2 - Заостровье-2, относящемся к памятникам самбийско-натангийской культуры (культура Доллькайм-Коврово). Предполагается, что это захоронение отражает влияние германских погребальных обрядов на культуру балтского населения Самбийского полуострова и даже свидетельствует о присутствии в составе носителей самбийско-натангийской культуры германцев - носителей вельбаркской культуры или же выходцев из Скандинавии. Скандинавское влияние в данном случае представляется более вероятным. Однако в раннем железном веке и в римское время погребения в каменных ящиках, окруженных каменными кругами, широко распространяются в циркумбалтийском регионе, в том числе и за пределами германского мира, у балтов и прибалтийских финнов. Поэтому вполне возможно, что погребение на могильнике Шлакалькен-2 - Заостровье-2 каким-то образом связано с этой общебалтийской традицией.

The paper explores a cist grave of the Roman period made inside a stone circle at the Schlakalken-2-Zaostrov'e-2 cemetery ascribed to the Sambian-Natangian cultural tradition (Dollkeim-Kovrovo culture). Presumably, this grave reflects the impact of Germanic funerary rites on the Baltic peoples that lived in the Sambian peninsula suggesting that the Sambian-Natangian population groups also included Germanic people who belonged to the Wielbark culture or were born in Scandinavia. In this case, the Scandinavian influence seems to be more likely. However, in the Early Iron Age and in the Roman period the rite of arranging burials in stone cists enclosed by stone circles spread among the Balts and the Baltic Finns all across the circum-Baltic region, including the areas outside the Germanic world. For this reason, it is quite possible that the grave at the Schlakalken-2-Zaostrov'e-2 cemetery is somehow linked to this general Baltic traditio.

Реконструкции индивидуальной «истории жизни», основанные на комплексном изучении скелетных останков, являются традиционным направлением работы с палеоантропологическими материалами в археологическом контексте, а появление новых методов способствует их большей достоверности. При раскопках кургана 7 могильника Девица V в 2021 г. Донской экспедицией ИА РАН было открыто интересное погребение, в котором присутствовали останки одного индивида. Это был мужчина в возрасте старше 45 лет, более точное определение возраста которого осложнено патологиями. У этого индивида были выявлены следы давних множественных переломов, а также комплекс признаков, позволяющих диагностировать диффузный идиопатический скелетный гиперостоз, который наиболее часто встречается у мужчин старшего возраста с избыточным весом и нарушением обмена веществ. По результатам изучения изотопного состава азота коллагена костной ткани можно заключить, что в рационе индивида преобладали животные белки. На основании характеристики состояния здоровья, физического статуса и типа питания, а также с привлечением исторических источников и с учетом археологического контекста ставится вопрос о принадлежности индивида к особой группе скифского жречества.

Reconstruction of an individual ‘life story' based on comprehensive studies of skeletal remains is a traditional area of research relating to paleoanthropological remains in the archaeological context, with new methods improving its reliability. In 2021 the excavations of kurgan 7 at the Devitsa V cemetery performed by the Don expedition of the Institute of Archaeology, RAS, discovered an interesting grave with remains of one individual. It was a male over 40 years old, more precise age of this male is difficult to determine because of pathologies such as marks of multiple old fractures as well as a number of symptoms that can help diagnose diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis which is more common among older males suffering from overweight and metabolic disorder. It can be inferred from the analysis of the nitrogen stable isotope composition of the bone tissue collagen that animal protein prevailed in this individual's food intake. Based on this male's health conditions, physical status and the type of diet as well as historical sources and the archaeological context, the authors of this paper suggest that the dead belonged to a special group of Scythian priesthood.
OF THE PREDISPOSING FACTOR OF CRIBRA ORBITALIA AMONG PAST POPULATIONS OF EASTERN EUROPE
Authors: Свиркина Н.Г. , Решетова И.К.
Published: July 2023

В рамках исследования были проанализированы оригинальные авторские и литературные данные 70 серий от эпохи бронзы до средневековья. Они были сгруппированы по трем категориям: 1 - географическая локализация (происхождение с территории условного севера и юга Русской равнины); 2 - мобильность (оседлое и кочевое); 3 - принадлежность к урбанистическому центру (городское/ сельское). Cribra orbitalia у детей и взрослых выше в южных городских сериях, однако для северных регионов ситуация прямо противоположная - у жителей городов частоты встречаемости патологии ниже, чем у населения сельской округи. Самые высокие частоты встречаемости признака у оседлого населения юга Русской равнины, самые низкие - у кочевников. Очевидно, что пищевой фактор играет важную роль, поскольку именно диета определяет характер поступления витаминов и микроэлементов; влияет на способность усвоения необходимых для организма веществ. Другой негативный фактор - скученность и антисанитарные условия жизни. Перспективными представляются исследования с использованием индивидуальных патологических, паразитологических и изотопных данных.

This study analyzes original data and data published in literature relating to 70 series covering the period from the Bronze Age to the Middle Ages. The data have been grouped into three categories: 1 - geographical localization (origin in the area of grid north and the south of the Russian Plain); 2 - mobility (sedentary/nomadic); 3 - residence (urban/ rural). In southern urban series the prevalence of cribra orbitalia among children and adults has been found higher than in the northern areas where the situation is reverse, the prevalence of this pathology among the urban residents is lower than among the rural population. The highest prevalence of this disease has been recorded for the sedentary population that lived in the south of the Russian Plain, while the lowest has been observed among the nomadic groups. It is clear that the food factor has an important role to play as it is the diet that determines how vitamins and micronutrients are absorbed by the body, the food factor also has an impact on the ability to absorb the nutrients that the body needs. Another adverse factor are crowded and unsanitary living conditions. Studies with the use of pathological, parasitological and stable isotope data at the individual level seem to have good prospects.

В статье публикуются результаты РФА-исследования металла 58 боспорских бронзовых сестерциев I-II вв. н. э. из клада, найденного на античном поселении Коржевский 6 (Славянский район Краснодарского края) в 2021 г. Редкий гомогенный комплекс дал новые возможности для изучения монетных сплавов и определения потенциальных источников меди для боспорского монетного двора в последней трети I - середине II в. н. э. Предполагается, что медь поступала из месторождений полиметаллических руд, локализуемых на Кавказе, Балкано-Карпатского рудного пояса и, возможно, уральских медно-пирротиновых месторождений.

The article publishes the results of X-ray fluorescence analysis (XRF) of 58 Bosporan bronze sestertii of the first and second centuries AD from the hoard found at the ancient Korzhevsky 6 settlement (Slavyansk district of the Krasnodar Territory) in 2021. A rare homogeneous assemblage provided new opportunities for studying coinage alloys and identifying potential sources of copper for the Bosporan mint in the last third of the 1st century to the mid 2nd century AD. It is assumed that copper came most likely from deposits of polymetallic ores localized in the Caucasus, as well as the Balkan-Carpathian ore belt, and possibly the Ural copper-pyrrhotite deposits.
THE ORGANOGENIC LAYER IN KURGAN 5 (CHIMISHLIYA DISTRICT, REPUBLIC OF MOLDOVA): COMPOSITION AND ORIGIN
Authors: Бабенко А.Н.
Published: July 2023

В статье представлены результаты изучения погребения 12 кургана 5, расположенного у северной окраины г. Чимишлия (Республика Молдова). Согласно элементам погребального обряда, захоронение относится к белозерской культуре. Конструкция погребальной камеры и инвентарь свидетельствуют об элитном статусе усопшего. Органогенная прослойка, обнаруженная над южным выкидом погребения, изучена с применением спорово-пыльцевого и сферулитного анализов. Слоистая структура образца, присутствие в спорово-пыльцевом спектре большого количества комков пыльцы и наличие сферулитов указывают на навозное происхождение органогенной прослойки. Спорово-пыльцевой спектр позволяет сделать предположение о совершении погребения в период с мая по июль. Возведение деревянных конструкций и использование навоза в погребальном сооружении, вероятнее всего, свидетельствуют об имитации жилища и привычной для погребенного обстановки.

The paper describes results of excavating grave 12, kurgan 5, located near the northern outskirts of the town of Chimishliya (Republic of Moldova). According to the elements of the funerary rite, the grave is attributed to the Belozerka culture. The construction design of the burial chamber and funerary offerings suggest a high rank of the deceased person. The organogenic layer discovered above the southern discharge of the grave was studied by pollen and spherulitic analyses. The layered structure of the sample, presence of a large number of pollen clumps and spherulites indicate that the organogenic layer consisted of manure. The pollen spectrum suggests that the burial was made in the period from May to July. The erection of wooden structures and the use of manure in the funerary construction, most likely, indicate that this construction imitates the dwelling and its interior that the deceased person was used to.

В статье сравниваются типологические системы анализа лепной керамики тушемлинско-банцеровской культуры и соседних родственных культур (в первую очередь колочинской), изложенные в литературе начиная с 1960-х гг. Это сравнение необходимо для выработки в конечном итоге единых подходов и методов, обеспечивающих дальнейшее изучение древностей больших территорий, на которых в последующую эпоху формируется государство Русь. Выявлены историографические традиции, часть которых оценивается как перспективная для согласования отдельных работ между собой и создания единой типологии. Намечены направления работы для решения задачи создания общеупотребительной универсальной типологической системы анализа керамических материалов указанного круга.

The paper compares typological systems used in analyzing hand-made ceramics of the Tushemlya-Bantserovshchina culture and related cultures in the neighboring regions (in particular, the Kolochin culture) described in literature since the 1960s. This comparison is needed to work out unified approaches and methods supporting further studies of antiquities from the vast areas where Kievan Rus emerged as a state in the subsequent period. The paper singles out historiographical traditions some which are deemed to be viable for ensuring consistency among various studies as well as developing a unified typology. It also outlines areas of research to address the task regarding the development of a common universal typological system for analyzing ceramic materials attributed to these cultural contexts.
Article court : Le chien comme stratégie de prévention contre les cambriolages dans les domiciles de l’île de Montréal
Authors: Ostiguy Rebecca , Boivin Rémi
Published: July 2023

Le cambriolage est un crime particulièrement fréquent dans les grandes villes. L’objectif de ce projet est d’évaluer la présence d’un lien statistique entre la répartition de cambriolages et la propriété de chiens dans les domiciles de la ville de Montréal pour les années 2015 à 2018. Cette étude vise à croiser des données en sources ouvertes de la ville quant au nombre de cambriolages, du registre municipal des animaux de compagnie, ainsi que des données du recensement. Des analyses bivariées et multivariées, telles que les corrélations et une analyse de régression binomiale négative, sont utilisées. Les résultats suggèrent que les chiens ont un fort effet dissuasif sur la commission de cambriolages, présumément en augmentant les coûts du passage à l’acte pour les cambrioleurs potentiels. Cette recherche suggère de nouveau que des moyens de prévention situationnelle peuvent avoir un impact considérable sur le crime.

Perwujudan komitmen pemerintah dalam meningkatkan populasi sapi potong sebagai target untuk kecukupan konsumsi daging nasional dilakukan melalui Program UPSUS SIWAB (Upaya Khusus Sapi Indukan Wajib Bunting) dengan melaksanakan program Inseminasi Buatan (IB). Namun tidak tersedianya informasi mengenai kegiatan pelaksanaan IB pada ternak milik masyarakat dan data kelahiran ternak, serta pelaporan data akseptor, mengakibatkan program tersebut belum terlaksana secara optimal. Perekaman data ternak sapi indukan serta pelaksanan kegiatan IB menggunakan aplikasi berbasis komputer, dapat menyediakan informasi yang akurat untuk mengukur tingkat keberhasilan program inseminasi buatan yang digunakan sebagai pertimbangan dalam membuat kebijakan bagi pihak pengambil keputusan yakni pemerintah guna menyusun program SIWAB yang berkelanjutan. Aplikasi untuk mengukur tingkat keberhasilan inseminasi buatan pada sapi potong  berdasarkan variable conception rate, yang menggunakan data pelayanan IB, data kebuntingan dan data kelahiran ternak. Tingkat keberhasilan IB berdasarkan analisis yang dilakukan dari beberapa daerah di Kabupaten Merauke berdasarkan  variabel conception rate (CR) menunjukkan bahwa data yang digunakan untuk mengukur tingkat keberhasilan IB yakni jumlah sapi yang di B dan jumlah sapi bunting saling berkorelasi, dengan nilai CR tertinggi 78,48 % pada distrik Jagebob,  dan terendah di distrik Merauke  27,27 %.

Meningkatnya ketersediaan data historis dalam jumlah besar dan kebutuhan untuk membuat perkiraan yang akurat tentang perilaku masa depan menjadi perhatian khusus dalam mencari teknik yang dapat menarik kesimpulan dari mengamati hubungan antara data tertentu, antara data masa lalu dan data masa depan. Domain peramalan mengalami peningkatan sejak tahun 1960-an, dengan metode statistik linier, misalnya menggunakan model ARIMA. Baru-baru ini, model pembelajaran mesin telah menarik perhatian dan dapat digunakan sebagai teknik lain selain model statistik klasik untuk kasus peramalan. Penelitian ini memprediksi perubahan kasus baru positif Covid-19 per satu juta penduduk (new cases per million Covid-19) di Indonesia menggunakan pembelajaran mesin. Pemodelan perubahan new cases per million diperlukan karena penyakit ini merupakan penyakit baru, sehingga sampai saat ini belum ada pemodelan deret waktu yang cukup akurat untuk menggambarkan kasus tersebut. Teknik machine learning yang akan digunakan adalah Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) dan Support Vector Machine (SVM) dan dibandingkan kinerja dari kedua teknik tersebut. Dari hasil perhitungan kinerja, prediksi new cases per million Covid-19 yang dilakukan dengan menggunakan SVM(RMSE = 9,053) memiliki kinerja yang lebih baik dibandingkan dengan menggunakan MLP (RMSE = 10,284). Nilai RMSE yang lebih kecil menunjukkan kinerja yang lebih baik.

Banyaknya kematian bibit yang masih kecil dalam pemeliharaan disebabkan oleh kurangnya perhatian dari media dan pemeliharaan kondisi air. Kegagalan budidaya ikan dapat disebabkan oleh air dengan keasaman (pH) yang terlalu asam atau basa, dan suhu yang tidak sesuai akan mempengaruhi angka kematian. Tingkat keasaman (pH) air yang baik untuk ikan lele adalah 6,5 – 8,5. Tingkat pH 9 ke atas akan menyebabkan nafsu makan ikan lele menurun dan tingkat pH air di bawah 5 akan menyebabkan penggumpalan lendir di insang ikan lele dan mudah berkembang biaknya jamur atau bakteri patogen. Suhu air yang baik untuk pertumbuhan ikan adalah antara 20-30°C. Perubahan cuaca yang sewaktu-waktu berubah secara ekstrem, hujan yang terus menerus dan kemudian panas yang tinggi akan membuat suhu dan pH air berubah drastis sehingga menyebabkan ikan lele mengalami stress dan kematian. Berdasarkan pengamatan tersebut, diperlukan suatu alat yang mampu menjaga kualitas air berupa suhu dan pH air. Sistem Pengendalian Kualitas Air berupa pH dan suhu air dengan kontrol proporsional dapat mengontrol keasaman pH dan suhu air pada budidaya ikan lele. Sistem ini terbukti berhasil meningkatkan pertumbuhan pada kolam A dengan sistem. pertumbuhan ikan lele dari 4 cm ke ukuran 5 – 6 cm meningkat 7.7% lebih tinggi dari kolam B tanpa sistem. Pertumbuhan ikan lele ke ukuran 7 – 8 cm pada kolam A 3.5% lebih tinggi daripada kolam B. Pertumbuhan ikan lele ke ukuran 9 cm pada kolam A 4% lebih tinggi dan angka kematian pada kolam A dengan sistem 16% lebih rendah dibandingkan dengan kolam B tanpa sistem. Sistem kendali kualitas air berupa pH dan suhu air ini terbukti mampu meningkatkan pertumbuhan dan menekan kematian ikan lele  dengan menjaga kestabilan suhu dan pH air kolam pada nilai setpoint dan aplikasi android yang dibuat berhasil menampilkan nilai dari pembacaan dari sensor pH dan suhu yang telah ditampung di dalam cloud firebase sehingga memonitoring kualitas air berupa suhu dan pH air dapat dilakukan dari jarak jauh.

Saham adalah kepemilikan hak oleh perorangan (pemegang saham) pada suatu perusahaan berdasarkan pemberian modal sehingga dianggap  memiliki kepemilikan dan pengawasan perusahaan tersebut berdasarkan bagian tertentu. Menurut data dari Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) pada tahun 2020, jumlah investor di Pasar Modal Indonesia yang terdiri dari investor saham, reksadana dan obligasi, mengalami kenaikan 56 persen yaitu 3,87 juta Single Investor Identification (SID) sampai pada tanggal 29 Desember 2020. Kenaikan ini menjadi 4 kali lipat lebih tinggi sejak 4 tahun terakhir. Investor saham juga mengalami kenaikan sebanyak 53 persen menjadi 1,68 juta SID. Hal tersebut menunjukkan besarnya minat masyarakat terhadap keikutsertaan pada kepemilikan saham. Namun dalam berinvestasi terdapat risiko. Risiko dalam berinvestasi di pasar modal sebenarnya dapat diminimalisir dengan pemilihan saham yang benar terutama dalam hal fundamendal perusahaan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode K-Means untuk mengelompokan saham sesuai dengan karakteristiknya. Berdasarkan perhitungan, didapatkan sebanyak 5 kali Iterasi untuk 4 Kelas/Cluster yang telah didefinisikan diawal. Selain itu, didapatkan hasil bahwa Kelas/Cluster 1 dan 4 diisi oleh emiten-emiten yang memiliki fundamental buruk  serta Kelas/Cluster 2 berisi emiten pemberi dividen yang tinggi. Secara keseluruhan, didapatkan kesimpulan bahwa algoritma K-Mean dapat digunakan untuk membantu para Investor dalam melakukan pencarian emiten yang sesuai dengan karakteristik yang diinginkan.
