El concepto: origen, características y poderes"
La palabra concepto tiene su origen etimológico del latín CONCEPTIO, “entender”, de
CONCIPERE, “tomar y mantener firme”, de COM, “juntos”, más CAPERE, “tomar, tomar,
sostener”. En el siglo XIV adoptó el significado actual de "toma mental, comprende". Se trata,
por tanto, de una comprensión de la discusión en la que se intenta “dar” lo que el otro da por
hecho, lo que se pone como estructura firme detrás de esa exposición.
Sócrates, en sus argumentos, investigó desde una primera perspectiva negativa, demostrando
que su interlocutor en realidad no sabía de qué estaba hablando, sabemos que Sócrates nunca dio
una definición objetiva y final del tema que estaba discutiendo, sino que siempre siguió el

Mobile mixed reality platform for rapid prototyping
Authors: Megha Mahesh Patil  , Sagar Vishnurao Wankhede  , Vedant Sharad Chaudhari
Published: September 2024

Mixed Reality (MR) represents a revolutionary advancement in computing, poised to transform interactions with the digital world by integrating virtual elements into real-world environments. This technology has the potential to significantly impact prototyping, business operations, and the education sector. Traditionally, the prototyping phase in product development involves sketching designs on paper or using CAD for 3D rendering, followed by manufacturing or 3D printing prototypes—a process that is both costly and time-consuming. MR tools allow developers to augment 3D models of prototypes over surfaces or in midair, enabling designers to modify and refine their designs without the need for repeated printing. In education, MR enhances the presentation of knowledge, moving beyond printed books and 2D screen presentations to create immersive, interactive learning experiences. This facilitates a deeper understanding by allowing users to move around and interact with virtual content. Recognizing the need for virtual object interaction in prototyping and education, we have developed a mobile mixed reality application that seamlessly blends the physical and digital worlds. This application allows users to rotate, scale, translate, and dismantle virtual objects, providing a more intuitive and engaging way to grasp structural concepts.

The interplay of ADHD, social media usage, and dopamine receptors in adolescents: A literature review
Authors: Shanna Indira Fayzhia  , Yunias Setiawati
Published: September 2024

ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder marked by symptoms such as inattentiveness, hyperactivity, and impulsivity, with a prevalence rate exceeding 5%. The pathophysiology of ADHD includes cognitive and functional brain abnormalities, particularly in the anterior cingulate gyrus and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, as well as decreased activity in the frontostriatal region. Diagnosis involves comprehensive assessments based on behavioral criteria outlined in the DSM-5. Treatment primarily includes stimulant medications, which are effective in about 70% of patients, and non-stimulant options such as atomoxetine and antidepressants. The review explores the effects of social media on adolescents, highlighting both negative impacts, such as social isolation, depression, and cyberbullying, and positive aspects, such as enhanced communication and knowledge sharing. Adolescents with ADHD are particularly vulnerable to behavioral addictions due to their poor impulse control, making them susceptible to excessive social media use. Additionally, the role of D2-dopamine receptors in ADHD is discussed, noting that genetic components like the DRD2 gene can affect dopamine neurotransmission, impacting attention and pleasure experiences. The pleasure principle, as proposed by Freud, is also analyzed in the context of ADHD, suggesting that individuals with ADHD may engage in behaviors that provide immediate gratification to avoid discomfort. Therefore, this review underscores the correlation between ADHD symptoms, social media usage, dopamine receptor function, and the underlying psychological drives in adolescents, providing a comprehensive understanding of these interrelated factors.
Robust authentication mechanisms integrating biometrics and AI for securing remote access to cloud-based healthcare services
Authors: OMOLOLA AKINOLA
Published: September 2024

Strong authentication is needed to protect remote patient health data in cloud-based healthcare services. Traditional verification techniques like passwords or tokens are hard to remember, share, or steal. This project aims to secure online cloud healthcare platform access using biometrics and AI. Biometrics is the finest cloud healthcare user authentication option, while others have issues with utility, accuracy, and fraud. Research reveals that biometric approaches may authenticate persons well, but cloud storage can compromise privacy. Machine learning aids biometric recognition, but current systems don't balance accuracy, scalability, and security. This article shows a multi-factor login solution using device biometrics and cloud AI. Remote log-ins are verified by fingerprints and facial recognition on mobile apps. Anomaly detection finds illogical attempts to get access, and machine learning models use biometric templates to authenticate persons. This biometric-AI technique seeks a balance between strong authentication, privacy, and usability. System design includes mobile client biometric sensors, template extractor module, AI authentication server, and cloud healthcare databases. Faces and fingerprints are processed locally before sending a safe encrypted template. Deep learning recognition models verify templates against server enrollment records. An isolation forest algorithm detects unusual login trends for security. The authentication method was tested on 50 people for five weeks. Fingerprint and face recognition outperformed passwords with FARs of 0.0008% and FRRs of 0.2%. The AI detector thwarted 99.9% of simulated cyberattacks and scored 4.5/5 for usability. A comparison study found that the multi-factor system was more accurate, trustworthy, and scalable than single biometric or password schemes. The study developed and evaluated a privacy-preserving biometric-AI identification system for remote cloud healthcare access. The multi-modal solution was easy to use and secure against multiple attack scenarios. With continued scalability and inclusiveness advancements, it could be used in many therapeutic settings worldwide.

Perekonomian masyarakat desa dapat diawali dengan memanfaatkan Tanaman Obat Keluarga (TOGA). Salah satu TOGA yang dapat digunakan untuk dijadikan sebagai terobasan berwirausaha adalah bunga telang. Bunga telang memiliki banyak khasiat untuk kesehatan dan juga dapat dijadikan sebagai salah satu bahan untuk pembuatan olahan produk usaha. Desa Kroman adalah salah satu desa di Kabupaten Gresik di daerah pesisiran. Mayoritas masyarakat desa tersebut hanya sebagai buruh industri songkok. Dari kondisi ini penting dilakukan untuk dilakukan suatu penyuluhan untuk membuka wawasan masyarakat sekitar memiliki usaha sampingan dalam rangka peningkatan perekonomian masyarakat. Dari kegiatan penyuluhan ini dapat ditemukan beberapa hal penting diantaranya yaitu masih ada 28,6% peserta kegiatan yang belum tahu bunga telang. Ada 40% dari peserta kegiatan yang sudah tahu bunga telang ternyata belum mengetahui khasiatnya. Ada 71% peserta kegiatan yang belum mengetahui varietas bunga telang. Ada 14,3% peserta kegiatan yang sudah memiliki bunga telang di halaman rumahnya. Setelah kegiatan pengabdian ini dapat menjadi inspirasi dari masyarakat Desa Kroman untuk melakukan inovasi olahan herbal dan berminat untuk berwirausaha.

The fusilier fish (Caesio chrysozona) is an abundant fish resource that contributes to the economy of the Banda Islands community. This study aims to examine the growth, gonad maturity level (GML), and gonad maturity index (GMI) of the red fusilier fish landed on the coast of Kampung Baru Village, Banda District, Central Maluku. The study was conducted from July to August 2023. A total of 40 fish were collected, measured for their total length, and weighed for their body weight. After that, the fish were dissected for gonad observation, which was then weighed and determined for gonad maturity levels. The results showed that out of 40 fish, there were 14 male and 26 female fish. The length of the fish ranged from 18 to 24 cm, with body weights for females between 83 and 220 grams, and for males between 79 and 171 grams. The length-weight relationship analysis showed a (b) value for female fish of 3.664 with an ( R2) value of 0.834, while male fish had a (b) value of 1.446 with an (R2) value of 0.273. The length-weight relationship equations for female fish is (W=0.0018 L{3.664}), and for male fish (W=1.7876 L{1.446}). The gonad maturity level (GML) was dominated by GML II for both genders. The gonad maturity index (GMI) varied each month during the study, with the highest GMI for males reaching 3.10% and the lowest at 0.25%, while the highest GMI for females was 2.562% and the lowest was 0.091%.

Pendahuluan: Leukemia adalah penyakit keganasan yang umum pada anak-anak dan terjadi ketika perubahan dalam proses regulasi sel normal yang menyebabkan proliferasi sel induk hematopoietik. Penyebab utama terjadinya leukemia ini belum dapat dipastikan. Pasien leukemia memiliki kerentanan lebih tinggi terhadap penyakit gigi dan mulut seperti mucositis dan xerostomia akibat kerusakan akibat agen kemoterapi pada sel mucosa oral yang memiliki indeks mitotik yang tinggi. Tujuan: Mengetahui karakteristik leukemia pada anak dengan manifestasi oral di RSUD Abdoel Wahab Sjahranie Samarinda yang merupakan rumah sakit rujukan utama yang ada di provinsi Kalimantan Timur. Metode: Penelitian ini bersifat deskriptif dengan metode cross sectional menggunakan subyek data rekam medis berdasarkan kriteria yang ditentukan. Data dikelompokkan berdasarkan jenis leukemia, usia, jenis kelamin, status gizi dan manifestasi oral. Hasil: Sebanyak 1.330 kasus Leukemia di tahun 2017-2021 dengan 12 responden yang sesuai. Didapatkan kasus dengan Jenis kelamin laki-laki (58,3%) dan usia 0-5 tahun yang sebanding dengan usia 6-18 tahun (50%). Tipe leukemia limfoblastik akut menjadi tipe yang paling banyak dalam penelitian ini dengan frekuensi 83.3%. Mucositis (58,3%) sebagai manifestasi orang yang paling banyak dengan status gizi normal (41,7%) serta hasil laboratorium yang menyatakan rata-rata dari leukosit adalah 45.700 /uL, hemoglobin adalah 10.4 g/dl, dan trombosit adalah 117.600 /mm3. Sebanyak 66,6% responden telah mendapatkan kemoterapi. Kesimpulan: Kesehatan rongga mulut pasien leukemia merupakan refleksi dari status sistemik. Manifestasi oral dapat terjadi akibat penyakit leukemia ataupun efek samping dari kemoterapi.

Published: September 2024

Background: This study aims to determine whether there is a difference in compression strength between resin composites that use the stamp technique and those that do not use the stamp technique. Objective: To identify the effect of the stamp technique with occlusal matrix on the compression strength and compare it with the one without stamp technique. Materials and methods: This study used an occlusal matrix from a transparent impression made of silicone to print the occlusal teeth. This transparent impression was attached to the resin surface composite prior to polymerization and remained on the surface until polymerization ended. The advantage of using this transparent occlusal matrix is ​​that the light cure can penetrate through the transparent layer of the impression. It can be used to isolate oxygen during polymerization. Results: The average compression strength of composite resin with the stamp technique was 128.5300 ±17.23023 MPa, while composite resin without the stamp technique was 91.2460 ±8,72802 MPa. Conclusion: This study showed the difference between the two test groups, where the resin composite using the stamp strength had a higher compression strength.
