Gisting Dairy Farm (GDF) merupakan UMKM, bergerak dalam usaha sapi perah di Desa Sidokaton Gisting, Tanggamus dan dikelola secara mandiri. System pemeliharaan sudah tertata dan tersedia sumber air bor yang setiap saat digunakan untuk pembersihan kandang dan memandikan sapi. Populasi saat ini 41 ekor (25 ekor sapi dewasa). Jika rata- rata per ekor sapi menghasilkan feses 15 - 20 kg setiap hari, artinya akan dihasilkan 615 – 1.230 kg kotoran sapi per hari (224.475 – 448.950 kg/tahun), belum termasuk urin dan air memandikan sapi dan membersihkan kandang yang dilakukan setiap hari. Dengan lahan yang sangat terbatas, usaha ternak sapi perah GDF sangat berpotensi mencemari lingkungan disekitarnya. Tidak optimalnya pengolahan limbah disebabkan :1) Minimnya pengetahuan SDM Gisting Dairy farm mengenai pengelolaan limbah, kaitannya dengan perbaikan kualitas lingkungan. 2) SDM Gisting Dairy Farm belum mengetahui model dan teknologi pengolahan limbah dan manfaat pengolahan kaitannya dengan produksi bersih usaha sapi perah; 3) SDM Gisting Dairy Farm belum mengerti mengolah limbah menjadi pupuk organik maka perlu dilakukan pendampingan. Solusi yang ditawarkan : 1) Mensosialisasikan model dan teknologi pengolahan limbah dan manfaat pengolahan kaitannya dengan produksi bersih usaha sapi perah; 2) Merancang dan membuat model pengelolaan limbah di GDF; 3) Mendemonstrasikan pengolahan limbah menjadi pupuk organic dan membuat demplot percontohan tanman hijauan pakan ternak. 4) Melakukan pendampingan dalam proses penerapan/implementasi produksi bersih melalui pengelolaan terpadu limbah yang diproduksi pada usaha mitra, disertai dengan evaluasi. Berdasarkan hasil dan pembahasan dapat disimpulkan bahwa : (1) Pemahaman SDM mitra terkait produksi bersih pada usaha sapi perah meningkat; (2) SDM mitra mampu mengoah limbah menjadi pupuk organic (kompos); (3) Terjadi perbaikan lingkungan yang signifikan melalui penerapan produksi bersih, limbah yang terbuang ke lingkungan menurun; (4) Implementasi produksi bersih pada usaha sapi perah di GDF mampu meningkatkan tanbahan pendapatan bagi sistem tersebut (B/C Ratio >0,12).

Résumé
Notre hôpital propose depuis longtemps la Dialyse Péritonéale (DP) pour permettre aux patients de maintenir leur autonomie tout en poursuivant leurs activités quotidiennes. Récemment, nous avons introduit l’hémodialyse à domicile quotidienne (HDQ) avec le système Pureflow® un nouveau système permettant de préparer le dialysat à partir de l’eau courante, facilitant ainsi la gestion du matériel nécessaire. Cette initiative a débuté en octobre 2023 avec la formation de deux patients, qui ont ensuite commencé leur traitement à domicile.
L’impact de ce changement a été évalué par des entretiens basés sur une grille d’évaluation de qualité de vie, recueillant les expériences vécues par les patients. Nous rapportons les témoignages de ces deux premiers patients, Mr J. et Mme S., ont partagé leurs expériences positives, notant une amélioration de leur fatigue, de leur sommeil, et une meilleure intégration dans leur vie familiale et sociale. Mme S. a pu adapter ses séances de dialyse à son emploi du temps familial, tandis que Mr J. a retrouvé une certaine autonomie et a amélioré sa condition physique, malgré quelques défis liés à sa routine de dialyse quotidienne.
Ces témoignages soulignent l’amélioration de la qualité de vie des patients grâce à la dialyse à domicile, notamment en termes de réduction de la fatigue, d’amélioration du sommeil et de diminution de la douleur. La transition vers l’HDQ a été bien acceptée, les patients appréciant la flexibilité et l’adaptation de la dialyse à leur environnement familial. Cette expérience positive encourage notre service à continuer de proposer l’HDQ comme alternative avantageuse pour la gestion de l’insuffisance rénale, mettant en avant l’importance de la qualité de vie dans le choix des techniques de dialyse.
Témoignage d’un patient en hémodialyse longue nocturne à domicile sur cycleur conventionnel.
Authors: Huré Fabrice 
Published: April 2024

Dialysé moi-même, je partage ici, à sa demande, le parcours de Laurent, 50 ans, patient dialysé, débutant avec une uropathie malformative congénitale diagnostiquée à l’âge de 2 ans. À 25 ans, il découvre qu’il souffre d’insuffisance rénale chronique (IRC) et commence l’hémodialyse pendant 5 ans.
En 2003, Laurent subit une greffe rénale à Amiens, bénéficiant d’une période de 17 ans sans complications majeures. Cependant, les contraintes des centres de dialyse le conduisent à opter pour l’hémodialyse à domicile. Avec le soutien de sa compagne, il apprend les procédures nécessaires.
Après plus d’un an de dialyse à domicile, Laurent découvre la dialyse longue nocturne (HDLN) via les réseaux sociaux. Après en avoir discuté avec son néphrologue, il tente l’HDLN à domicile, avec des séances de 8 heures trois fois par semaine, s’adaptant à ses horaires de travail et à ceux de sa compagne.
Au printemps 2023, des problèmes liés à la qualité de l’eau le conduisent à passer à un cycleur à bas débit de dialysat. Des complications techniques sur l’osmoseur PureFLow® le font revenir aux poches de dialysat, provoquant fatigue et autres problèmes.
Après des essais infructueux avec un autre matériel, les techniciens réinstallent finalement un traitement d’eau adapté, permettant à Laurent de revenir au générateur conventionnel avec traitement d’eau. Il retrouve rapidement ses avantages antérieurs, soulignant l’importance de l’adaptabilité et de la collaboration entre le patient et l’équipe médicale.
En conclusion, l’HDLN à domicile avec un générateur conventionnel et traitement d’eau est actuellement le mode de traitement le plus adapté à ses besoins, permettant à Laurent de mener une vie quasi normale malgré les complications.
Multistage optical switching networks
Authors: Kaczmarek Sylwester 
Published: April 2024

The backbone networks evolution to high-speed DWDM networks generates new problems for switching. This function element must be also based on optical technology. For large capacity this cannot be realized by a single matrix, but by multistage switching networks. In the paper three types of optical matrices have been described: fiber switch FX, wavelength fiber switch WSX and wavelength interchanging fiber switch WIX. Based on these matrices, four switching network constructions were considered. The connection properties of these switching networks were evaluated, determining the electronic equivalent switching network for which these properties are well known.

Published: April 2024

Until recently, the extracellular matrix was considered only a structural component of the organ, which performs exclusively the function of the framework. However, recent studies provide insight into a much broader role of extracellular matrix in metabolic homeostasis, the transmission of intra-organ and tissue signals. Metabolic syndrome and chronic infectious diseases can change the extracellular matrix’s structure in the heart. However, the combined effect of bacterial lipopolysaccharide and metabolic syndrome on extracellular matrix of the heart remains insufficiently elucidated at present. The purpose of this work is to establish the effect of organism stimulation with bacterial lipopolysaccharide on the concentration of different fractions of glycosaminoglycans, the intensity of collagenolysis and the content of sialic acids in the heart of rats under conditions of experimental metabolic syndrome. The study was conducted on 24 sexually mature rats of the “Wistar” line weighing 200-260 g. Animals were divided into 4 groups with 6 animals in each group: control, metabolic syndrome group, lipopolysaccharide injection group and combination of lipopolysaccharide injection and metabolic syndrome group. Metabolic syndrome was modelled by using 20% fructose solution as the only water source. Lipopolysaccharide of S. typhi was administered according to the scheme: the first week, 0.4 μg/kg 3 times intraperitoneally, then once a week 0.4 μg/kg throughout the experiment. Experiment lasted for 60 days. The concentration of glycosaminoglycans, their separate fractions, the content of free L-hydroxyproline and sialic acids was studied in 10% rat heart homogenate. The combined effect of stimulation of the organism with bacterial lipopolysaccharide and metabolic syndrome modeling led to an increase in the total concentration of glycosaminoglycans in the heart of rats by 73.46% compared to the control group. Under these conditions, the concentration of the heparin-heparan fraction of glycosaminoglycans in the heart of rats increased by 188.64% compared to the control group. The content of the keratan-dermatan fraction of glycosaminoglycans increased by 75.34%, and the chondroitin fraction of glycosaminoglycans increased by 17.63%. The concentration of free L-hydroxyproline increased by 167.23%. The content of sialic acids increased by 66.95%. Metabolic syndrome, stimulation of the organism with bacterial lipopolysaccharide and their combination lead to intensification of degradation of the extracellular matrix of the heart of rats due to increased collagenolysis, destruction of proteoglycans and glycoproteins.
Socio-demographic characteristics of patients with negative and positive symptoms in schizophrenia
Authors:  Kushnir Yu.A. 
Published: April 2024

Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder that leads to impaired social adaptation, interpersonal interaction, and disability. Negative symptoms are an integral part of schizophrenia. In the world psychiatric science and practice, there are still many questions about the typology of schizophrenia, the description of its clinical manifestations, first of all, the features of negative symptoms in schizophrenia. Psychiatrists of different countries draw attention to the fact that these descriptions do not always coincide. Socio-demographic factors can be considered as factors affecting the prognosis of the course and outcome of schizophrenia. In this regard, a comprehensive approach to the study of socio-demographic characteristics of patients with schizophrenia involves the study of the influence of social factors on the formation and course of schizophrenia and determines the relevance of this study. The purpose of the study was to determine the features of socio-demographic characteristics of patients with schizophrenia in order to improve diagnosis and create psycho-corrective measures. 252 patients with negative symptoms of schizophrenia and 79 patients with positive symptoms of schizophrenia were examined. During the research, a comprehensive approach was used, consisting in the use of clinical-psychopathological, clinical-anamnestic and statistical research methods. Socio-demographic features of patients with negative symptoms in schizophrenia were established, consisting in the predominance of women; patients aged 20-29 years; persons with special secondary education; divorced and single persons; patients busy with physical labor; average level of material wealth; very poor and poor living conditions. Socio-demographic characteristics of patients with positive symptoms in schizophrenia were outlined by the predominance of men; patients aged 30-49 years; persons with incomplete higher education and with higher education; divorced and single persons; patients with disabilities; with extremely low and low levels of material well-being and a satisfactory level of living conditions. The conducted research made it possible to draw conclusions that socio-demographic features of patients with negative and positive symptoms have their own specificity, which should be taken into account when diagnosing patients with schizophrenia.

Introduction: Fixed orthodontic appliances can lead to enamel demineralization and gingival changes due to increased biofilm. Aim: To detect the presence of Prevotella intermedia, Tannerella forsythia, Streptococcus mutans, Scardovia wiggsiae, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Fusobacterium nucleatum, and Porphyromonas gingivalis in oral biofilm and presence of white spot lesions and gingivitis in users of self-ligating and conventional brackets. Design: This observational controlled study was conducted from January to December 2020. The participants used fixed orthodontic therapy for 6 months and were divided into a conventional and a self-ligating bracket group. The participants underwent clinical examination, and biofilm samples were collected from their lower incisors. Results: No differences were found in the bacteria detection between the groups (p>0.05). However, white spot lesions were more common in users of self-ligating brackets (p=0.019). There was no association between clinical data and the detection of any microorganism (p>0.05). The fluorescence intensity of A. actinomycetemcomitans was higher in self ligating brackets than in conventional brackets (p<0.05). Implications: The microbial diversit did not differ between the types of brackets; however, the presence of white spot lesions and the amount of A. actinomycetemcomitans were higher in patients with self-ligating brackets.

ABSTRAKKetika charging, baterai lithium-ion seringkali terjadi overheat dan overcharge. Begitu pun ketika discharging juga terjadi overdischarge, overheat dan overcurrent apabila tidak sesuai kurva karakteristik (T=-8.75*I+60). Hal tersebut menyebabkan kerusakan sel baterai sehingga megurangi lifetime baterai. Penelitian ini dibuat sistem battery management system (BMS) yang memantau suhu dan arus melalui pembacaan sensor. Apabila suhu saat charging melebihi batas maksimum (45°C), sistem akan diproteksi dengan menonaktifkan MOSFET (switch). Proteksi ketika discharging terjadi jika suhu atau arus melebihi batas kurva atau safety factor (p). Dari hasil data charging, sistem mampu memproteksi overheat dengan error 0.43% dan menghitung nilai state of charge (SoC) dimana akan beralih ke mode discharge jika melebihi 85% dengan error 0.01%. Saat discharging sistem mampu memproteksi ketika besaran suhu dan atau arus melebihi safety factor yakni 60 dengan error 1.74% serta mampu beralih ke mode charge jika SoC kurang dari 40% dengan errror 0.018%.Kata kunci: Safety factor, Battery Management System, State of Charge ABSTRACTDuring charging, lithium-ion batteries risk overheating and overcharging, while discharging may lead to overdischarge, overheating, and overcurrent if deviating from the characteristic curve (T=-8.75*I+60), causing battery cell damage and reducing lifetime. This study introduces a Battery Management System (BMS) that monitors temperature and current using sensors. If the charging temperature surpasses the limit (45°C), the system protects by deactivating the MOSFET switch. Discharging protection triggers if temperature or current exceeds the curve or safety factor (p). Analyzing charging data, the system defends against overheating with a 0.43% error, calculates State of Charge (SoC), shifting to discharge mode if exceeding 85% with a 0.01% error. During discharging, the system safeguards against temperature and/or current surpassing the safety factor of 60 with a 1.74% error and switches to charge mode if SoC falls below 40% with a 0.18% error.Keywords: Safety factor, Battery Management System, State of Charge
