Authors: Suadaa Irfana Maisyatus , . . 
Published: July 2018

The development of technology provides convenience to all human beings including public librarians. OPAC becomes a solution for library users to search books in a short time with accurate data in which they previously used a manual system. However, there are some users, especially users with certain disabilities, such as users who cannot see, are unable to use OPAC. The idea came up to make OPAC with voice as a substitute for another alternative of text input use. OPAC with voice has been used in several big libraries in Indonesia. One of them is in State Islamic University of Sunan Kalijogo. However, because there are still some shortcomings in terms of voice recognition in which one of them is the limited number of recognizable languages, so in this study, it will be discussed the use of Google API for voice recognition and voice synthesis which is then integrated with OPAC, and the algorithm used in the search is Fullproof algorithm. The methods used in this research were literature study, system design, prototype application creation, and application testing. From the test results, the application is able to search the data book in OPAC using voice input from various languages with a relatively fast searching time. Applications are also able to voice the book found in the form of sound.

Home is a basic need of human life and plays an important role in wellbeing human life. The quality of design should meet the needs and way of life as every human being deserves to enjoy it. Today's housing design failed to respond in meeting the needs of the occupants. The designs are now too much influenced from the west and contrary to the needs of the local design, especially the Malays. The space for the Malay Muslims is the reflection of the fulfilment of its way of life. The occupants are experiencing multiple unfavourable housing issues. This paper highlight the housing issues and conditions on how certain issues of housing affordability affect societal wellbeing. The writing of this study will discuss the issues and problems of residential low and medium cost-of-modern design houses. Forty-five willing respondents were randomly selected to answer questionnaires based on their willingness and the data were analysed using SPSS statistics to interpret these issues. The findings will be the basis for addressing the main issues and to proposed the application of the conceptual Malay heritage design in the design towards the creation of quality interior design dwelling.

Simulation-Based Optical Threshold Component Design for Mitigating Four-Wave Mixing Effects in WDM Radio Over Fiber Systems
Authors: Musa Ahmed , Bany Salameh Haytham , Olaimat Ayat 
Published: July 2018

AbstractThe gigantic demand on high bandwidth and capacity has triggered the need to use the radio over optical fiber (RoF) systems. RoF systems offer several attractive features such as low attenuation loss, large bandwidth, less interference, etc., which can improve the communication system reliability and achieve high data rates. However, the RoF system suffers from linear and nonlinear fiber impairments, which result in signal distortion. Several solutions have been proposed to overcome linear impairments; on the other hand, the nonlinear impairments issue is still a challenging problem in RoF communication systems. Four-wave mixing (FWM) is the most dominating nonlinear impairments that impacts the performance of optical fiber communication systems and the RoF systems as well. In this article, we present a strategy to mitigate the FWM effect in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) RoF systems. Specifically, we study the effect of FWM under high transmit power levels over long transmission distances. This proposed strategy aligns the optical and radio link parameters to alleviate the FWM effects. To achieve this objective, the impact of WDM RoF system parameters such as wavelength ($\lambda_i$), transmitted power, etc., on system performance is investigated. The main performance metrics are the total signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), optical SNR (OSNR), Q-factor, and bit error rate (BER). Given these metrics, our proposed strategy defines an optical threshold level that applies to the optical threshold component to get rid of the undesired signals generated by the FWM effect.

Abstract
Reference intervals (RIs) for laboratory analyses by and large, are provided by analytical platform providers – the provenience and preanalytics of materials for the calculation of intervals often remain arcane particularly relating to the age group of donors. In an observational, prospective cohort study on 1467 healthy uniracial Caucasian residents >60 years of age, 105 frequently used lab tests were done on one blood sample. With a nonrestrictive definition of health, several pathological lab results pointing to occult disease have been found and published from SENIORLAB so far. The RIs found for hemoglobin in women went from 117.9 to 152.4 g/L (80–84 years) and in men from 124.9 to 170.6 g/L (90% confidence interval [CI]). This article lists RIs computed with SENIORLAB data for such frequently ordered analyses as platelet counts, vitamin B12 and folate, ferritin and analytes measured to estimate metabolic performance in glucose turnover. In fact, 64.5% of the cohort showed prediabetic fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and/or glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c); total serum folate levels but not red blood cell folate decreased with progressing age. As much as 66% of evaluable study participants had insufficient levels of 25(OH) vitamin D. Published reports from SENIORLAB are referenced in this article.

ObjectiveSuccessful simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation (SPK) or pancreas transplantation alone (PTA) restores glycemic control. Diabetes and impaired kidney function are common side effects of immunosuppressive therapy. This study addresses glucometabolic parameters and kidney function during the first year.MethodsWe examined 67 patients with functioning grafts (SPKn = 30, PTAn = 37) transplanted between September 2011 and November 2016 who underwent repeated oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs) 8 and 52 weeks after transplantation. Another 19 patients lost their graft the first year post-transplant and 28 patients did not undergo repeated OGTTs and could not be studied. All patients received ATG induction therapy plus tacrolimus, mycophenolate and prednisolone. Glomerular filtration rate was measured before and 8 and 52 weeks after transplantation by serum clearance methods.ResultsFrom week 8 to 52 after transplantation, mean fasting glucose decreased (SPK: 5.4 ± 0.7 to 5.1 ± 0.8 mmol/L, PTA: 5.4 ± 0.6 to 5.2 ± 0.7 mmol/L; bothP < 0.05), and also 120-min post-OGTT glucose (SPK: 6.9 ± 2.9 to 5.7 ± 2.2 mmol/L;P = 0.07, PTA: 6.5 ± 1.7 to 5.7 ± 1.2 mmol/L;P < 0.05). Fasting C-peptide levels also decreased (SPK: 1500 ± 573 to 1078 ± 357 pmol/L, PTA: 1210 ± 487 to 1021 ± 434 pmol/L, bothP < 0.005). Measured GFR decreased from enlistment to 8 weeks post transplant in PTA patients (94 ± 22 to 78 ± 19 mL/min/1.73 m2;P < 0.005), but did not deteriorate from week 8 to week 52 (SPK: 55.0 ± 15.1 vs 59.7 ± 11.3 ml/min/1.73 m²;P = 0.19, PTA: 76 ± 19 vs 77 ± 19 mL/min/1.73 m²;P = 0.74).ConclusionGlycemic control and kidney function remain preserved in recipients with functioning SPK and PTA grafts 1 year after transplantation.

Transtorno de Ansiedade Generalizada sob a perspectiva da Gestalt Terapia
Authors: Maffioleti Cavaler Camila , Castro Amanda 
Published: July 2018

A ansiedade é uma característica biológica do ser humano, contudo sob condições excessivas pode atingir um nível patológico e trazer prejuízos ao bem estar dos indivíduos. O presente artigo é uma revisão narrativa do transtorno de ansiedade generalizada – TAG – compreendido à partir da escola psicológica Gestalt- terapia de Frederick Perls. O estudo concentrou-se em identificar a patologia, analisar sua etiologia e conhecer os indicadores de tratamento medicamentoso. Na perspectiva da Gestalt indivíduos ansiosos que tentam controlar a natureza reguladora a sua volta, não conseguem viver a vida de forma espontânea, pois estão preocupados com possíveis acontecimentos futuros. Quanto menos perceptivo de si próprio é o indivíduo, maior será seu empenho em se manter no controle das situações. Viver no presente é por si só um ato terapêutico. O princípio da hierarquia das necessidades está constantemente operando em todos os indivíduos, para que a situação mais importante venha emergir, basta que o indivíduo esteja consciente da experiência de si mesma o tempo todo, sem tentar controlá-la. Compreender o TAG possibilita ao terapeuta auxiliar seu paciente a sair de um ciclo vicioso disfuncional de quebra no ciclo de contato.
O Outro, do outro lado do espelho: o gênero não inteligível
Authors: Santos Jobson Rios dos 
Published: July 2018

Este artigo discute o conto “O Espelho, do outro lado”, escrito pela filósofa e feminista belga Luce Irigaray, sob uma perspectiva filosófica, psicanalítica e linguística. Trata-se de uma análise, na qualidade de enunciação estruturante, com informações objetivas que repensam aspectos em sua produção, além de uma avaliação aos modos pelos quais estão sendo elaborados outros discursos que também ordenam, seduzem e/ou oprimem o Outro. Como instrumento, utiliza-se aqui a semiótica, que não se ocupa somente dos aspectos formais do texto como também dos elementos internos e da busca de sentidos que apontam para além da significação, para o âmbito da experiência, podendo esses serem imaginativos e ficcionais. Além do domínio da significação, há essa magnitude nuclear do texto, que tenta inscrever-se e que podemos identificar como desejo. Nesta produção de significados, investigamos o conceito de speculum na dialética do imaginário – ora a plenitude do prazer e a vivência de integração possível, ora a sua ausência e, com ela, a angústia gerada pela ameaça de desintegração. E é nesse contexto e de acordo com a Teoria do Espelho estabelecida por Jacques Lacan que procedemos nessa apreciação. Então, nos deleitemos à luz de Irigaray, nesse conto, a exclusão do imaginário feminino destina à mulher uma posição de apenas experenciar-se de forma estilhaçada, na margem e à margem, de estruturas dominantes pouco seguras. A realidade não é o real, mas uma espécie de emanação desse, passível de ser performada. O que nos leva a pensar que o feminino, enquanto real, resiste à compreensão, não se conformando no lugar de Outro, e, assim, torna-se não inteligível, no qual o sexo, o gênero e a sexualidade são uma unidade ficcional.

Published: July 2018

The purposeto evaluate the effectiveness of dosing procedures for the degree of anterior transposition of the lower oblique muscle in the surgical treatment of its secondary hyperfunction of varying severity using modern methods of ophthalmological examination.Patients and methods. Between January 2013 and June 2017, 31 children (31 eyes) aged 3 to 17 years with vertical strabismus due to unilateral insufficiency of the superior oblique muscle were monitored. Depending on the magnitude of the vertical deviation in the adduction on the paretic eye measured in degrees by the Hirschberg method in the head rotation position, all patients were divided into two groups: group 1 — 12 children (12 eyes) (no more than 7° according to Hirschberg); group 2 — 19 patients (19 eyes) (more than 7° according to Hirschberg). Surgical treatment of hypertrophy was performed in all patients in both groups. Weakened the lower oblique muscle by its dosed front transposition. The degree of anterior transposition of the lower oblique muscle depended on the magnitude of the angle of vertical deviation.Results. The surgical intervention on the lower oblique muscle was performed in all patients in full. Hypertrophy in the primary position of the gaze in group 1 was completely eliminated in 11 eyes (91.7%), in group 2 — in 17 eyes (89.5%). The residual vertical angle, equal to 3 ° according to Hirschberg, in group 1 was detected in 1 eye (8.3%), in group 2 — in the 2 eyes (10.5%). Hypertrophy in adduction in group 1 was completely eliminated in 10 eyes (83.3%), in group 2 — in 17 eyes (89.5%). The residual vertical angle of 3° in Hirschberg’s group 1 was detected in 2 eyes (16.7%), in group 2 — in 2 eyes (10.5%).The conclusion. Application of the technology of dosed front transposition of the lower oblique muscle in the surgical treatment of its secondary hyperfunction will significantly improve the effectiveness and safety of treatment and reduce the risk of complications, shorten the duration of surgery and anesthesia in child. The developed method of dosing the degree of anterior transposition allows to perform this operation monolaterally, without fear of developing secondary hyperfunction of the lower oblique muscle in the pair eye.

Published: July 2018

Purpose: to study the structure of the swelling lens, the dependence of its anatomical parameters on the nucleus sizes and density, patients’ age.Patients and methods. 52 patients with intumescent mature cataract were examined. All patients underwent phacoemulsification with a two-stage continuous circular capsulorhexis. After the 2–2.5 mm capsulorhexis had been created, the liquid lenticular masses were removed from the anterior and posterior lens compartment with the aspiration/irrigation system. Visually we determined the size of the nucleus, its color and density according to Buratto’s classification.Results. When performing this work 4 types of the swelling lens structure were revealed. Type I — a small emerging white nucleus with large amount of liquid lenticular masses in the anterior and posterior lens compartment, II degree of density according to Buratto’s classification. The mean age was 49.09 ± 3.19 years old. The related ophthalmic diseases accounted for 36.4%. Type II — a large white nucleus with the presence of liquefied lenticular masses in the anterior and posterior lens compartment. III degree of density according to Buratto’s classification. The mean age was 71.00 ± 1.92 years old. Associated diseases — 84.6%. Type III — a large brown nucleus with the presence of liquefied lenticular masses in the anterior and posterior lens compartment. IV degree of density according to Buratto’s classification. The mean age was 75.84 ± 1.46 years old. Associated diseases — 100%. Type IV — a small, very dense, brown nucleus with liquid lenticular masses. V degree of density according to Buratto’s classification. The mean age was 77.33 ± 2.49 years old. Associated diseases — 100%.Conclusion. 4 types of lens structure in intumescent cataract were described depending on the nucleus size, density, the amount of the lenticular masses. By means of UBM method, it was shown that intumescent cataract is accompanied with the alterations of the ocular anterior segment parameters, which depend on the type of lens structure. It was revealed that the types of swelling lens structure are directly connected to the patients’ age: mean age of patients with type I — 49.09 ± 3.19 years old, with type II — 71.00 ± 1.92, with type III — 75.84 ± 1.46, with type IV — 77.33 ± 2.49 years old.
