Authors: Nisa Uljannah Nisa Uljannah 
Published: February 2024

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana sejarah perkembangan minibus bireuen express di Kabupaten Bireuen. Metode yang digunakan adalah penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif. Berdasarkan observasi dan wawancara yang telah peneliti lakukan di peroleh bahwa minibus bireuen express didirikan pada tahun 1975 oleh H. Asyek dan Yusri Nandek dengan nama karoseri CV Bireuen Express. Minibus bireuen express didirikan karena tidak ada transportasi umum yang beroperasional dan jarang nya transportasi umum dari luar daerah yang beoperasional di kawasan Kabupaten Bireuen. Pada tahun 1980 unit minibus bireuen express mencapai 250 unit kemudian pada tahun 1998 unit minibus bireuen express turun menjadi 150 unit, hal tersebut disebabkan oleh faktor konflik yang terjadi di Aceh yang menyebabkan kemunduran yang sangat pesat terhadap minibus bireuen express. Walaupun terjadi kemunduran minibus bireuen express tetap mampu mempertahankan eksistensi nya dalam perkembangan transportasi modern.

School Security and Safety Challenges in Nigeria: Evaluating the Existential Threats of Domestic Terrorism in the North East Region
Authors: Nte Awajiowa 
Published: February 2024

Abstract

The ubiquity of terrorism cannot be overemphasized as it has become a global common phenomenon. Schools are easy prey of terrorist attack since they lack the maximum security apparatuses that other state institutions possess. All over the world, terrorist attacks have taken place inside and beside school premises raising serious concern for government, security experts and school authorities. The recurring events of school shootings that keep taking place in the United States of America, Beslan Russia and even in Norway have proven that no school is totally immune from attacks by insiders, criminals, terrorists and non-state actors. Consequently, schools should be protected from these threats given the public emotion, sensitivity and global concerns about places of learning. In the last decade or so, Nigeria has gone through the harrowing experiences of terrorist attacks on schools especially in the Northern part of the country and the North East in particular by Boko Haram, ISWAP and currently armed bandits. This study therefore examines this ugly menace that has defied sustainable solutions to insecurity and safety threats in Schools. The study is descriptive in nature and gathered information from materials already available and questionnaires from individuals and schools authorities.

This study aims to determine students’ perceptions of using the FONDI application for speaking practice and the research uses the Fondi application because this application is still rarely used for classroom learning. The design of this research was descriptive qualitative. Data collection using interviews with students of Junior High School in Banyuwangi. Five students who had been using the FONDI application for around two months were interviewed, such that while using the FONDI program for speaking practice, these students may describe their perceptions, improving the quality and fluidity of their speaking. After conducting interviews, the results showed that students gave positive perceptions, such as, the students feeling happy, enthusiastic, and increasingly eager to use the Fondi application to improve their speaking skills. But students also gave negative perceptions, such as, that Fondi should be subscribed at a cost that is quite expensive and should be supported by the internet.
Parasitic Disease and COVID-19 Syndemics in Indonesia: Biomedical Aspects
Authors: Trasia Reqgi First 
Published: February 2024

Background: Syndemics happened while two or more coinfections have dangerous interaction and lead to a harmful outcome than for either single infection. In Indonesia, during COVID-19 pandemic, it has deal with a doble burden presume to neglected tropical disese (NTD) control. Parasitic disease as a part of NTD must be a concern in Indonesia along pandemc. There are still few articles that review the biomedical aspects of co-infection COVID-19 with parasitic diseases in Indonesia, whereas an understanding of biomedical aspects can encourage knowledge about pathogenesis which will make an earlier diagnosis.
Results: This review summarize how parasites may serve as protective agents or risk factors in pandemic and, vice versa, how the COVID-19 may disturb the prevention and misdiagnosis of parasitic disease in Indonesia. Co-infection COVID-19 with malaria increass the burden of severe clinical manifestations and poor prognosis due to exaggerated proinflammatory response. Coinfection triggers TNF and IL-6 to activate coagulation cascade leading to micro-thrombosis and coagulopathy. Besides, helminthiasis causes vary configuration of immune-modulation, thereby lowering susceptibility to other infections and tolerating COVID-19 better. They modify Th2 respons to limit pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-6 which is observed in severe cases of COVID-19. T-cell hypoactivation in SARS-CoV-2 and W.bancrofti will cause relatively mild manifestation of COVID-19.
Conclusions: In parasite infection, the IL-4 may elevate and induce shadow memory CD8+ T-cell (TVM cell) for CD8 response rapidly agains virus. It control human IL-4 or IL-10 that leads to the maturation of Th2 cells and down-regulation of the inflamation respons of IFN-g, IL-17 and TNF-a. These mechanisms allow us to blockade the cytokines storms observed in COVID-19 cases.

In Indonesia, achieving the proportion of timely provision of MP-ASI still needs to improve. Providing nutritious food for children and families is inseparable from the culture of the local community, especially the provision of complementary foods for breastfeeding, but cultural principles often contradict the principles of health. This study aims to ascertain the community's cultural norms regarding administering MP-ASI to infants—the cross-sectional design of this study's quantitative descriptive methodology. The population is 231 people. A sample of 148 people was determined based on the Slovin formula. The questionnaire measurement scale uses a Likert scale approach (1-5). Odds ratio analysis is used to analyze data. The study's findings revealed that most mothers with good knowledge in responding to their culture also had good complementary feeding (98.5%), where the odds ratio obtained was 19.950 with a P value. 0.002, with a Lower Bound value of 2.981 and an Upper Bound of 133.533. A good mother's attitude in responding to its relation to her culture mostly shows the proper complementary feeding (94%), with an odds ratio of 4.762 and a significance level of 0.038, a lower bound of 10.90 and an upper bound of 20,813. The cultural determinants of providing complementary feeding (MP-ASI) are in the mother's knowledge and attitude. The knowledge aspect contributes more than the mother's attitude towards proper complementary feeding practices in the local culture.

Published: February 2024

Background: The care of critically ill children remains one of the most demanding and challenging aspects in the field of pediatrics. The main purpose of the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) is to prevent mortality of these children by intensive monitoring, early intervention and quality care with an objective to achieve better prognosis than the patients admitted in other parts of the hospital. Pediatric intensive care is an emerging concept in Bangladesh with only a few PICUs mostly in the capital city, Dhaka. This study was conducted to find out the pattern of diseases and outcome at our centre which would help in better understanding, modifying practices if necessary, leading to better management and outcome and necessary resource allocation by the planners.
Methods: It was a descriptive study conducted over 2 years, from October 2018 to September 2020, including all patients admitted to PICU of Combined Military Hospital, Dhaka. Bangladesh. Total 730 patients were admitted during the study period. Data were extracted from the patient’s files including demographic and clinical characteristics, previously diagnosed chronic conditions and outcome including length of stay (LOS) or death were noted.
Results: Total 730 patients were admitted during the study period. Mean age of the patient was 4 months and 4.68 days and mean hospital stay was 4.37±0.5 days. Preschool children (1–5 years of age) were the largest age group (n = 313). November and December were the most common months of admission (n = 58 and 57, respectively). Total 658 (90.1%) patient were improved and discharged, 32 (4.4%) patients were referred to surgical department, 3 (0.4%) patients was discharged against medical advice (DAMA) whereas, unfortunately 37 (5%) patients died. Central nervous system was involved in 198 (27.1%) and skin was the least involved system. A higher portion of patient of Preschool (1-5yrs) 15 (4.8%) died compared to <1 yr and > 5 years but the relationship was not significant statistically (p = 0.101). A higher proportion of males, 23 (5.2%), died compared to females, 14 (5%). This relationship was not statistically significant (p = 0.706). A higher proportion of death also observed in LOS< 24 hours, but the relationship was not significant (p=0.168).
Conclusion: This study revealed that neurological, genetic defect and respiratory diseases were the major causes of admission into the PICU with survival rate of 95%. A PICU is an essential part of hospital caring for the critically ill child by reducing morbidity and mortality. An effective and wellequipped PICU with modern facilitates can bring out the desirable outcome.

OBJECTIVE: to compare the immediate and long-term results of endoscopic mucosal resection with a circular incision (C-EMR) and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in the treatment of patients with large benign epithelial neoplasms of the colon.PATIENTS AND METHODS: a prospective randomized comparative study was conducted from November 2020 to July 2022, included 103 patients with benign epithelial neoplasms of the colon ranging in size from 20 to 30 mm. The C-EMR method was used in 52, ESD - 51 patients.RESULTS: the removal of the tumor by the C-EMR method required statistically significantly less time, compared with the ESD method – 30 and 60 minutes, respectively (p<0.001). Intra- and postoperative complications occurred in 13(23.7%) patients in the C-EMR group and in 12(23.5%) patients in the ESD group. The most frequently reported complication was postcoagulation syndrome in the main and control groups – in 9(17.3%) and 11(21.6%) cases, respectively. It was found that the difficult location of the tumor (OR=18.3; p=0.01) and intraoperative complications (OR =37.5; p=0.04) are independent conversion factors of endoscopic intervention. The frequency of tumor removal in a en bloc and achievement of negative resection margins (R0) in the main and control groups did not significantly differ – 47(90.4%) and 49(96.1%) (p=0.4) and 40(76.9%) and 45(88.2%) (p=0.2), respectively.CONCLUSION: endoscopic mucosal resection with a circumferential incision is an effective and safe operation comparable to endoscopic submucosal dissection, and can be the method of choice for benign epithelial neoplasms of the colon with sizes from 20 to 30 mm. In addition, the duration of the operation using the C-EMR method is two times less than using ESD.

BackgroundInsect odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) are a class of small molecular weight soluble proteins. In the past few years, OBPs had been found to work as carriers of ligands and play a crucial role in olfaction and various other physiological processes, like immunity. A subset of insect OBPs had been found to be expressed differently and play a function in immunity of fungal infection. However, there are few studies on the role of OBPs in immunity of bacterial infection.MethodsTo identify the immune-related OBPs of Plagiodera versicolora after infected by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, we determined the mortality of P. versicolora to P. aeruginosa and selected the time point of 50% mortality of larvae to collect samples for RNA-seq. RNAi technology was used to investigate the function of immune-related OBPs after P. aeruginosa infection.ResultsRNA-seq data shows that PverOBP18 gene significantly up-regulated by 1.8-fold and further RT-qPCR affirmed its expression. Developmental expression profile showed that the expression of PverOBP18 was highest in the pupae, followed by the female adults, and lower in the 1st-3rd larvae and male adults with lowest in eggs. Tissue expression profiling showed that PverOBP18 was dominantly expressed in the epidermis. RNAi knockdown of PverOBP18 significantly reduced the expression of bacterial recognition receptor gene PGRP and antibacterial peptide gene Attacin and reduced the resistance of P. versicolora to P. aeruginosa infection.ConclusionOur results indicated that PverOBP18 gene increased the pathogen resistance of P. versicolora by cooperating with the immune genes and provided valuable insights into using OBPs as targets to design novel strategies for management of P. versicolora.

BackgroundInsulin resistance has been proven to be associated with renal cell carcinoma (RCC). However, the prognostic value of the triglyceride–glucose (TyG) index, as a marker for insulin resistance (IR), is still unclear. Therefore, we conducted research to explore the prognostic value and the predictive performance of the TyG index in postoperative RCC patients.MethodsA total of 651 postoperative RCC patients from January 2016 to June 2018 were enrolled in the final study. Their clinical and laboratory parameters were collected from medical records and through follow-up by phone. The triglyceride–glucose (TyG) index was calculated as follows: TyG = Ln[TG (mg/dl) × FBG (mg/dL)/2]. The overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were identified as the main outcomes.ResultsThe TyG index is an independent prognostic factor for OS (HR = 2.340, 95% CI = 1.506 to 3.64, P &lt; 0.001) and DFS (HR = 2.027, 95% CI = 1.347 to 3.051, P &lt; 0.001) in postoperative RCC patients. Kaplan–Meier survival curves of the different TyG index levels showed statistically significant differences in terms of OS and DFS (log-rank test, P &lt; 0.0001). Furthermore, the TyG index was significantly associated with RCC risk factors.ConclusionThe TyG index is significantly associated with RCC survival. The mechanisms responsible for these results may contribute toward the improvement of RCC prognosis and immunotherapy efficacy and the development of new immunotherapeutic targets.
