Authors: Tunjung Fitriani Evi , Rohmawati Indah , Murniati Anis
Published: February 2023

Kecemasan adalah gangguan alam sadar yang ditandai dengan perasaan ketakutan atau kekhawatiran yang mendalam dan berkelanjutan, suatu perasaan takut akan terjadi sesuatu yang tidak sesuai harapan. Produksi ASI pada ibu post partum dipengaruhi oleh beberapa faktor salah satunya yaitu faktor psikologis, kecemasan ibu. Ibu yang mengalami kecemasan akan menyebabkan terganggunya produski ASI, karena terhambatnya produksi hormone prolactin dan oksitosin. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan kecemasan dengan Produksi ASI Pada Ibu Post Partum di Rumah Sakit Ibu dan Anak Amanda, Tulungagung. Metode penelitian menggunakan analitik korelasi cross sectional. Populasi penelitian ini adalah pasien post partum di Rumah Sakit Ibu dan Anak Amanda Tulungagung, teknik sampling dengan accidental sampling didapatkan 30  sampel dan data di analisis. Hasil Penelitian menggunakan uji Spearman Rank, menunjukkan Pvalue =0,007 sehingga p <  0,05, yang berarti ada hubungan antara tingkat kecemasan dngan produksi  ASI Ibu Post Partum di Rumah Sakit Ibu dan Anak Amanda, Tulungagung. Sebagian besar responden memiliki tingkat kecemasan dalam kategori sedang yaitu sebanyak 21 responden (70%) dan dari keseluruhan responden yang menyatakan ASI tidak lancar yaitu sebanyak 9 responden (30%). Kecemasan merupakan variable yang mempengaruhi produksi  ASI. Hal ini dapat dibuktikan bahwa semakin tinggi tingkat kecemasan ibu akan mempengaruhi kerja hormon yang akan memproduksi ASI dan pada akhirnya menyebabkan jumlah produksi ASI yang dikeluarkan menjadi sedikit

Authors: NIE Lili , JIAO Fan , YANG Tingting , LIU Zhenyu
Published: February 2023

To investigate the mechanism of the movement law of sheep and theoretically support the study on the herd effect, a herd effect model based on the agent and cellular automata technology is built. The law of the herd effect is defined with the use of PyCharm for simulation, based on the characteristics of the flock tending to the top sheep. The flock activity area falls into several two-dimensional cell space structures, and the grid with the cell state of "sheep" in the cell space structure is considered a type of agent. The model assumed that there are five behaviors, including standing, walking slowly, looking for the leader, random and avoiding collisions in four scenarios. A herd effect model is built, the herd behavior is simulated, and the simulation results are compared with the actual herd behavior trajectory. The mean square error between the calculation model and the reality is 1.025. As revealed by the results, the model exhibits effective applicability, so it can better describe the trajectory of real herd behavior and provide theoretical guidance for the study on the herd effect.
CONSTRUCTION OF PLANT BIOLOGICAL CIRCUIT MODEL FOR STORING MODAL INFORMATION DURING TOMATO GROWTH PROCESS
Authors: WANG Ying , YANG Huifei , XIE Ruijie , LIU Zhenyu
Published: February 2023

During the growth and development of tomato plants, its different cells or tissues would store external environmental information and express it in the form of ion transportation. In order to better examine the storage model of tomato plants, the tomato individual tissue and whole plant biological circuit models were closely examined based on the idea of modal theory. According to the parameter inversion theory, in the frequency range of 0.1Hz - 1MHz, the impedance spectrum measurement and dielectric properties of tomato plants in four modal periods of germination stage were carried out. The stages were namely the seedling stage, flowering and fruit setting stage, and fruiting stage respectively. Impedance spectrum fitting was performed with the ZSimpWin software. Then, the biological circuit model of each tissue of tomato plant was obtained. Next, the parameter inversion was used to calculate the value of each element of the biological circuit model. Lastly, the biological circuit model of the tomato plant body in each period was obtained. Through the charging and discharging test of the model of the tomato plant body at each stage, the corresponding parameter value relationship was obtained according to the capacitance characteristics. This would be compared with the component values obtained from the parameter inversion in the model. Results showed that the errors were all less than 4.8%, which verified the rationality of the model. This system acted as a theoretical guidance for the research on the growth and development of tomato and other plants.

Waste Classification using CNN Algorithm
Authors: Diqi Mohammad
Published: February 2023

One of the cornerstones to efficient waste management is proper and accurate waste classification. However, people find it challenging to categorize such a big and diverse amount of waste. As a result, we employ deep learning to classify waste efficiently. This paper uses the CNN algorithm to provide a problem-solving strategy to waste classification. The model achieves an accuracy of 0.9969 and a loss of 0.0205. As a result, we argue that employing CNN algorithms to categorize waste yields better results and reduces losses efficiently.

Published: February 2023

Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), is an acute, life-threatening emergent disease involving the skin and mucous membranes with serious systemic complications. It is characterized by widespread epidermal sloughing. Drugs are the most common triggers of TEN, but infection, vaccination, radiation therapy and malignant neoplasms can all induce it in susceptible patients. We report two cases in whom a hair dye and a COVID-19 vaccine (BioNTech®, Pfizer) were believed to be the causative agents. These patients have to undergo repeated debridements of the necrotic tissue. In this manuscript the anesthetic management of TEN patients is discussed. Detailed preoperative evaluation, aggressive fluid and electrolyte replacement, avoidance of hypothermia during debridement, minimizing anesthetic agents and limiting traumatic procedures are key points in the management.

Femoral shaft fractures occur in 10–37 / 100.000 patients per year, and mainly male young patients are affected (median age 27 years) compared to the fracture of the elderly in female patients (median age 80 years). Fracture of the femoral diaphysis is a common fracture which is seen frequently in orthopaedic department . Treatment can be operative and nonoperative. Usually operating managment is preferred and results are good. In developing countries patients suffer from low social economic conditions which cause problem in seeking treatment so malunion and non union are common. The problem treating malunion are related to restoring the axis; the limb length and joint mobility in the knee and hip Diaphyseal malunion poses a great challenge for the orthopedic surgeon, and an inundation of morbidity for the patient. Diaphyseal malunion can cause altered gait, adjacent joint osteoarthritis and body dissatisfaction. we present our experience in a case of 11month old malunited shaft of femur fracture which was treated with open reduction and internal xation using a broad dynamic compression plate (dcp). The object of surgery was to restore the function. The common indication for operating malunited shaft femur fracture are overlaping , angulation >10-15◦ and rotation > 45◦ with or without angulation (externally or internally) and relieve pain.

Gait Event Detection with Proprioceptive Force Sensing in a Powered Knee-Ankle Prosthesis: Validation over Walking Speeds and Slopes
Authors: Keller Emily , Laubscher Curt , Gregg Robert
Published: February 2023

Many powered prosthetic devices use load cells to detect ground interaction forces and gait events. These sensors introduce additional weight and cost in the device. Recent proprioceptive actuators enable an algebraic relationship be?tween actuator torques and ground contact forces. This paper presents a proprioceptive force sensing paradigm which esti?mates ground reaction forces as a solution to detect gait events without a load cell. A floating body dynamic model is obtained with constraints at the center of pressure representing foot-ground interaction. Constraint forces are derived to estimate ground reaction forces and subsequently timing of gait events. A treadmill experiment is conducted with a powered knee-ankle prosthesis used by an able-bodied subject walking at various speeds and slopes. Results show accurate gait event timing, with pooled data showing heel strike detection lagging by only 6.7 ± 7.2 ms and toe off detection leading by 30.4 ± 11.0 ms compared to values obtained from the load cell. These results establish proof of concept for predicting gait events without a load cell in powered prostheses with proprioceptive actuators. 
A Fiber-Optic Array Spectrometer with Parallel Multichannel Optical Lock-in Detection and its Application to In Situ Lighting Measurements
Authors: Martinsons Christophe , Picard Nicolas , Carrell Samuel
Published: February 2023

This paper describes a new optical spectroscopy instrument achieving lock-in detection in all its spectral output channels in a parallel and simultaneous fashion.  It is based on two identical compact array spectrometers working in phase quadrature thanks to optical modulators synchronized with an external reference signal.

In the application example, the optical lock-in spectrometer was used to perform spectral irradiance measurements with commercial LED lamps exhibiting temporal light modulation at different frequencies. A remote sensing optical device was designed to measure from a distance the temporal luminous waveform of a specific LED lamp and send it to the reference input of the optical lock-in spectrometer. When the lamps were operating together on top of a large continuous luminous background, the optical lock-in spectrometer successfully retrieved the respective spectral irradiance distributions and color parameters of each lamp, allowing their characterization to be performed independently of the other light sources illuminating the sensor during the measurements.

Coverage Analysis of IRS-Aided Millimeter-Wave Networks: A Practical Approach
Authors: Etcibasi Abdullah , Aktas Emre
Published: February 2023

Intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs) have become a popular topic in recent years for their great potential for controlling the radio link environment of wireless networks. With this controlled environment, the coverage can be increased. This paper examines the coverage analysis of IRS-aided networks, considering both two-dimensional buildings and the product-distance path loss model for the first time.  Leveraging the tools from stochastic geometry, the locations of base stations (BSs), buildings, and IRSs are modeled with a homogeneous Poisson point process (PPP). A Gamma approximation for the distribution of the nearest line-of-sight (LoS)-neighbor distance is proposed, leading to a closed-form expression for the distribution of the product-distance. Feasible BSs are defined as BSs which are reachable via an IRS deployed on a specific facade of a building, and the ratio of feasible BSs is derived. Simulations are performed, which confirm the proposed analytical methods. In the numerical results, it is observed that the IRSs can introduce up to a 45\% coverage boost, and the effect of the IRS length on the coverage probability is limited beyond 1.2 meters at 60 GHz.
RGB-D Visual Odometry via Low Order Gaussian Gradient Metrics
Authors: Yao Zhigang , An Xu
Published: February 2023

This paper gives a direct Visual Odometry (VO) of RGB-D cameras by using features conducted with low-order Gaussian derivative functions such as Gaussian gradient operator. By using the feature metrics locally, it improves further possibilities for sampling more reliable points from scenarios that are lack of structure or texture and is beneficial to continuous tracking. The proposed approach reaches relatively acceptable performance with a globally heuristic framework built on the general coarse-to-fine and inverse compositional estimation. Experimental results are conducted on a group of TUM datasets for validating the proposed approach.
Federated Learning for Maritime Environments:Use Cases, Experimental Results, and Open Issues
Authors: Giannopoulos Anastasios , Gkonis Panagiotis , Bithas Petros , Nomikos Nikolaos , Ntroulias George , Trakadas Panagiotis
Published: February 2023

Maritime transportation is vital for economic growth, since it is responsible for the vast majority of global trade. However, optimizing maritime transportation, focusing on certain performance metrics may lead to non-convex problems due to the large number and heterogeneity of network nodes and vessels. Furthermore, the harsh propagation environment, and the long propagation distances might be prohibitive for the implementation of conventional optimization. Machine learning (ML) represents a viable way towards complexity minimization but still, it might not be feasible to fully exploit its potential, since error-free feedback channels are usually assumed while the overall centralized processing delay from numerous distributed sources might render real-time deployment infeasible, due to stringent latency requirements. Meanwhile, security and privacy concerns constitute key driving factors for decentralized ML solutions, since data locality is vital to protect sensitive information. Taking into consideration all the above, this paper discusses feasibility issues, regarding the deployment of federated learning (FL) solutions in maritime environments, via the presentation and analysis of various use cases. Moreover, experimental results using datasets from an enterprise specializing in the maritime industry are provided, showing the superiority of FL over traditional ML approaches, in terms of accuracy and complexity. Finally, open issues that must be addressed to pave the way for the wide adoption of FL in maritime applications are discussed.
Novel blind full multipath Two Way Relay Network (TWRN), OFDM channel estimation using Machine Learning
Authors: De Parthapratim
Published: February 2023

Most two way relay network (TWRN) half-duplex channel estimation algorithms have been developed for single path channels, except for those in frequency domain OFDM systems. We derive a novel time-domain, blind Maximum A posteriori Probability (MAP) estimation method for multipath estimation in TWRN OFDM systems. Since a TWRN half-duplex system is a cascade of two/more bidirectional transmission systems, there are multiple forward and reverse, individual, as well as composite/cascade (of two individual) channels (unlike only one channel in traditional transmission). The situation is further complicated in the case of multipath channels. Additionally, TWRN systems suffer from having noise components at different nodes, including colored (non-white) at the receiver terminal node. Thus most recent research works concentrate on the easier task of estimating single-path (flat frequency) channels, that too by pilot-based, and sometimes, even by suboptimal least squares (LS) methods. However, in this paper, forward, composite/individual mulipath channel estimators developed are semiblind (for enhanced spectral efficiency), and which turn out to be nonlinear. Moreover, an unique "Factor Analysis Alternating Maximization" method (used in psychometrics and some Machine Learning (MLe) applications, but not in signal processing, communication/TWRN systems), is used, in a novel manner, to overcome the colored noise problem, allowing one to derive novel, closed-form, analytical expressions for reverse individual channel h estimation, (with its convergence provided), which is unavailable in existing literature. Non-trivial Cramer Rao bounds have also been derived for these novel multipath channel estimators. Comprehensive simulation results show the novel forward, reverse, composite and individual channel estimation methods perform much better than the existing ones.

ABSTRAKKurikulum berperan penting dalam mempersiapkan generasi penerus warga negara yang bertanggung jawab, kreatif, inventif, dan ahli bagi bangsa dan bangsa. Sumber daya manusia yang berkualitas dan berkualitas sangat penting bagi keberhasilan suatu negara karena pendidikan adalah jantungnya sekolah, masyarakat, dan bahkan negara. Pengembangan kurikulum, di sisi lain, sering mengalami banyak masalah yang harus ditangani. Masalah kurikulum dan pembelajaran pengembangan karakter menjadi fokus penelitian ini. Penelitian ini didasarkan pada tinjauan literatur. Namun, beberapa masalah dengan kurikulum dan pembelajaran pendidikan karakter telah dicatat, termasuk fakta bahwa mereka tetap tunduk pada tujuan politik kelompok. Pendidikan PKn, pancasila, dan agama semuanya berada di bawah payung pendidikan karakter. Kurangnya pendekatan dan lingkungan pendidikan yang tidak mendukung serta panutan orang tua semuanya berkontribusi pada kurangnya pendidikan pengembangan karakter. Kata Kunci: Pendidikan karakter, Kurikulum, Problematika, Pendidikan
Pembentukan Karakter dengan Mengenali Diri Sendiri

Published: February 2023

Mengenali diri sendiri sama seperti proses pencarian jati diri. Setiap individu pasti melewati berbagai hal yang dapat menentukan seperti apa dan bagaimana cara mereka hidup. Kemudian, dari sana mereka akan dapat memahami dirinya. Bisa saja perjalanan hidup yang membuatnya menjadi dewasa dan bijaksana sebelum waktunya, adapula yang matang dalam segi usia tetapi belum matang dari segi pemikiran dan implementasi kehidupan. Hal inilah yang membuat individu menjadi terombang ambing. Seolah ia sudah paham akan dirinya padahal ia hanya selalu bertahan pada zona nyamannya. Dengan demikian, karakter yang melekat dalam dirinya menjadi tidak kuat. Mudah goyah, selalu terbawa arus yang mungkin saja sebetulnya tidak dia harapkan. Maka, perlu adanya pembentukan karakter dengan mengenali diri sendiri agar dapat menemukan jati diri yang sesungguhnya. Karena memahami diri sendiri adalah pembentukan karakter yang sesungguhnya. Penelitian ini berbasis kualitatif deskripsi dengan menggunakan metode kepustakaan, studi kasus dan survei. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa pembentukan karakter sangat dipengaruhi oleh proses mengenali diri sendiri. Karena keduanya sama-sama perlu dibangun dan dikembangkan untuk mencapai jati diri yang berkualitas.Kata Kunci: pembentukan karakter, mengenal diri sendiri, hidup berkualitas
Implementation of Business Excellence Models in Healthcare for Quality Assessment: A Systematic Review
Authors: Kamal Eman
Published: February 2023

The assessment of healthcare facility quality using business excellence models provides valuable information about performance gaps, which can be used to improve performance. Within the excellence framework, the “result” domain presents more challenges in terms of improvement over time. Using European and American business excellence-based models (EFQM and Balridge, respectively), this review aims to highlight the impact of quality assessment on the improvement of healthcare performance results. A literature search was performed using PubMed, SCOPUS, and CINAHL databases. PRISMA guidelines were followed. All the articles were evaluated using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP) Tool. Thematic analysis was conducted following Thomas and Harden's approach, and confidence levels were determined using the GRADE-CERQual method. Nine studies were included. Two main themes emerged: 1) the assessment highlighted improvement in some results; and 2) the assessment highlighted areas that need improvement. The assessments focused mostly on customer-based results and least on society-based results. Six out of nine included studies did not show improvement in the desired results after a one-time assessment; however, no recommendations to improve quality were given to the facility after the assessments. Unless there is continuity in the assessment process, the desired results may not improve.

Background: In hospitalized patients with COVID-19, acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with higher mortality, but data are lacking on healthcare resource utilization (HRU) and costs related to AKI, community-acquired AKI (CA-AKI), and hospital-acquired AKI (HA-AKI). Objectives: To quantify the burden of AKI, CA-AKI, and HA-AKI among inpatients with COVID-19. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included inpatients with COVID-19 discharged from US hospitals in the Premier PINC AI™ Healthcare Database April 1–October 31, 2020, categorized as AKI, CA-AKI, HA-AKI, or no AKI by ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes. Outcomes were assessed during index (initial) hospitalization and 30 days postdischarge. Results: Among 208 583 COVID-19 inpatients, 30%, 25%, and 5% had AKI, CA-AKI, and HA-AKI, of whom 10%, 7%, and 23% received dialysis, respectively. Excess mortality, HRU, and costs were greater for HA-AKI than CA-AKI. In adjusted models, for patients with AKI vs no AKI and HA-AKI vs CA-AKI, odds ratios (ORs) (95% CI) were 3.70 (3.61-3.79) and 4.11 (3.92-4.31) for intensive care unit use and 3.52 (3.41-3.63) and 2.64 (2.52-2.78) for in-hospital mortality; mean length of stay (LOS) differences and LOS ratios (95% CI) were 1.8 days and 1.24 (1.23-1.25) and 5.1 days and 1.57 (1.54-1.59); and mean cost differences and cost ratios were $7163 and 1.35 (1.34-1.36) and $19 127 and 1.78 (1.75-1.81) (all P < .001). During the 30 days postdischarge, readmission LOS was ≥6% longer for AKI vs no AKI and HA-AKI vs CA-AKI; outpatient costs were ≥41% higher for HA-AKI vs CA-AKI or no AKI. Only 30-day new dialysis (among patients without index hospitalization dialysis) had similar odds for HA-AKI vs CA-AKI (2.37-2.8 times higher for AKI, HA-AKI, or CA-AKI vs no AKI). Discussion: Among inpatients with COVID-19, HA-AKI had higher excess mortality, HRU, and costs than CA-AKI. Other studies suggest that interventions to prevent HA-AKI could decrease excess morbidity, HRU, and costs among inpatients with COVID-19. Conclusions: In adjusted models among COVID-19 inpatients, AKI, especially HA-AKI, was associated with significantly higher mortality, HRU, and costs during index admission, and higher dialysis and longer readmission LOS during the 30 days postdischarge. These findings support implementation of interventions to prevent HA-AKI in COVID-19 patients.

Authors: Johnston Hannah , Zhao Caroline , Hu Yenya
Published: February 2023

The transition from a pre-clerkship curriculum to the clerkship year presents a need to re-examine and modify study strategies for clinical subject examinations and ultimately the United States Medical License Examination STEP 2 Clinical Knowledge. Efficient and effective learning are keys in balancing the significantly increased responsibility of patient care and decreased time for examination preparation.
We describe several customizable study approaches, advice on selecting resources, and methods for applying the educational framework of deliberate practice and corrective feedback to learning during a medical student’s clerkship years. These strategies focus on intentional and outcome-driven self-assessments to identify and patch knowledge gaps tailored to the clerkship year that will empower learners.
Restless legs syndrome in end-stage renal disease patients on maintenance hemodialysis: Quality of life and sleep analysis

Published: February 2023

Vitamin D insufficiency, calcium/phosphate imbalance, iron deficiency, anemia, pregnancy, and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) are all thought to be involved in the pathogenesis of restless leg syndrome (RLS). The prevalence of RLS ranging from 6.6% to 83% has been reported in another study. It is one of the illnesses that affect the quality of life of ESRD patients on maintenance hemodialysis. Unfortunately, RLS has not received enough recognition and attention, and the underdiagnosed and undertreated rate can reach more than 10%. This study aimed to look at the sleep quality and quality of life of people with RLS who were on maintenance hemodialysis. The present study included 286 individuals on chronic dialysis. The International Restless Legs Syndrome Study Group Diagnostic Criteria and the International RLS Rating Scale were used as recommendations to diagnose and assess the severity of RLS. The Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) and the Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36) were employed to evaluate sleep quality and quality of life. All patients’ biochemical and demographic data were reviewed, and statistical analyses were carried out. In conclusion, there were no statistically significant variations in demographic information or clinical and laboratory characteristics between RLS patients and those who did not have RLS. Specifically, among dialysis patients, those with RLS had higher PSQI and SF-36 ratings.
