Penggunaan ponsel pintar di kalangan orang tua meningkat tajam, karena mereka mencariketerhubungan dengan pasangan, teman, dan pekerjaan selama masa-masa sebagai orang tua yang terkadang tidak terhubung secara sosial. Karena semakin banyak orang tua yang menggunakan ponsel pintar saat berinteraksi dengan anak-anak mereka, semakin banyak penelitian mengenai implikasi penggunaan ponsel pintar orang tua terhadap interaksi orang tua-anak. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian yang telah ada, terlihat bahwa penggunaan ponsel dapat memberikan dampak positif dan negatif bagi keluarga. Oleh karena itu, perlu adanya peningkatan kemampuan dan pemahaman orang tua dalam penggunaan ponsel dalam keluarga sehingga dampak negatif yang mungkin muncul dapat dicegah. Untuk mengatasi permasalahan tersebut telah dilaksanakan kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat di Kejaksaan Negeri Depok dengan metode penyuluhan, yang dilaksanakan dalam beberapa tahap. Pertama analisis situasi, kedua penyusunan materi pengabdian, selanjutnya melakukan perijinan dan koordinasi dengan mitra terkait pelaksanaan pengabdian, melakukan kegiatan penyuluhan dan evaluasi. Hasildari kegiatan ini adalah peningkatan pengetahuan dan pemahaman orang tua tentang penggunaan ponsel pintar dalam berkomunikasi dengan anggota keluarga.

Smartphone use among parents is increasing sharply, as they seek connectedness with partners, friends, and work during the sometimes socially disconnected time of parenthood. As more parents use smartphones when interacting with their children, there is increasing research on the implications of parental smartphone use on parent-child interactions. Based on the results of existing research, it appears that cellphone use can have both positive and negative impacts on the family. Therefore, it is necessary to increase parents' ability and understanding of using cell phones in the family so that negative impacts that may arise can be prevented. To overcome this problem, community service activities have been carried out at the Depok District Prosecutor'sOffice using the counseling method, which is carried out in several stages. First, analyze the situation, second, prepare service materials, then carry out permits and coordinate with partners regarding the implementation of service, and carry out outreach and evaluation activities. The result of this activity is an increase in parents' knowledge and understanding of the use of smartphones in communicating with family members.

Published: November 2023

One of the primary focuses of the Republic of Kazakhstan concerning sustainable and stable improvements in the well-being of its population is the advancement of the healthcare sector. A mathematical model for an automated medical diagnostics system integrates machine learning algorithms, statistical models, and decision trees to analyze patient data and facilitate accurate diagnoses. This model enables healthcare professionals to enhance the efficiency and reliability of medical diagnostics by leveraging advanced computational techniques.In diagnosing diseases, the differential diagnosis between primary biliary cirrhosis of the liver and active hepatitis with cholestatic syndrome poses a challenge due to their overlapping symptoms. Both conditions exhibit jaundice, pruritus, fatigue, and hepatomegaly. However, distinguishing features based on clinical and laboratory observations can aid in accurate differentiation between the two states. These distinguishing features can be incorporated by developing a mathematical model for diagnosing diseases, enabling precise identification and guiding appropriate treatment strategies.
Predicting the progression of diseases is a crucial aspect of healthcare, enabling personalized interventions and improved patient outcomes. A mathematical approach can facilitate this prediction by monitoring changes in diagnostic results aligned with the severity of symptoms, which inherently vary over the observation period. By employing mathematical modeling techniques, healthcare professionals gain valuable insights into disease progression, supporting informed decision-making and tailored treatments.
In conclusion, developing a mathematical model for an automated medical diagnostics system, incorporating machine learning algorithms, statistical models, and decision trees, significantly contributes to healthcare. These models enhance the accuracy, efficiency, and personalization of medical diagnoses. Additionally, mathematical models aid in the differential diagnosis of challenging conditions and provide predictions regarding disease progression, ultimately benefiting patient care and treatment outcomes.
Hiroshima selon Keiji Nakazawa : dans l’ombre de la bombe
Authors: Capiau Brecht 
Published: November 2023

LIVRE : Le 8 juillet 2022, l’assassinat de l’ancien Premier ministre japonais Shinzo Abe secoue le monde entier… et surtout les Japonais. D’après une étude de l’Institute for Health Metrics and Évaluation, le taux d’homicides par armes à feu ne s’élève pourtant qu’à 0,02 victime pour 100 000 habitants au pays du Soleil levant. Par comparaison, ce chiffre monte à 4,12 aux États-Unis, plaçant cette nation en tête d’un bien sombre classement. Le pacifisme qui caractérise la politique intérieure et extérieure nipponne depuis la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale a très certainement contribué à ce score historiquement bas, tout comme la culture populaire japonaise. Gen d’Hiroshima, chronique antiguerre de plus de 2 500 pages livrée par le mangaka Keiji Nakazawa, est sans l’ombre d’un doute l’ultime témoignage de la résistance japonaise face à tout ce qui se rapporte à la violence et à la militarisation
La lecture comme support pédagogique pour l’apprentissage de la Shoah dans l’enseignement secondaire en Fédération Wallonie‑Bruxelles
Authors: Lambert Anne 
Published: November 2023

ENQUÊTE : L’enseignement de la Shoah a évolué progressivement, marquant la prise de conscience de l’importance de transmettre cette période de l’histoire aux jeunes générations. L’école est ainsi perçue par les enseignants comme le moyen principal de transmission de la Shoah en Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles (FWB). Ils ont la liberté d’approfondir certains sujets et d’en survoler d’autres1. Floriane Schneider et Iannis Roder2 distinguent la transmission de contenu et les méthodes pédagogiques pour construire une mémoire durable. Outre les manuels scolaires, les enseignants ont ainsi intégré d’autres outils, dont la littérature, pour encourager la réflexion, l’esprit critique et l’apprentissage. Cet article examine comment les livres peuvent être un support efficace pour l’enseignement de la Shoah. Il se base sur une enquête menée auprès des enseignants du secondaire de la FWB au premier semestre 2023 par la Fondation Auschwitz. Le rapport complet sera publié ultérieurement.

An Observational Study of Factors affecting CA125 Levels in Premenopausal Women
Authors: Balachandran Amrita , Nayak S Radhakrishna 
Published: November 2023

Abstract

Background:
CA125 levels show a variation in premenopausal women during the menstrual cycle. Moreover, various modifiable and non-modifiable factors affect its value which needs to be taken into account while interpreting the results. The study was done with an objective (1) to determine differences in CA125 levels during the mid-cycle and menstrual phase of menstruation and (2) to determine the factors (demographic and clinical) that may affect CA125 values.

Materials and Methods:
An observational study was conducted from December 2017 to May 2019. Women of reproductive age group of 15–45 years with regular menstrual cycles were included in the study. The CA125 levels were compared among mid-cycle values and values during menstruation. A mean of the values was taken, and factors affecting it were determined by regression analysis. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

Results:
The mean age of the patients was 28.71 ± 6.14 years. The median day of sample collection during menses was day 2 and during mid-cycle was day 14. Compared to mid-cycle CA125 values, values during menses were significantly higher (24.74 ± 17.43 vs. 12.39 ± 7.3, P < 0.0001) with a mean difference of 12.35 ± 15.04. Multivariate regression analysis showed that days of menses (beta coefficient 3.49, P = 0.0001) and regular caffeine consumption (beta coefficient 7.074, P = 0.007) were significant independent positive risk factors of CA125 levels.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, CA125 levels are significantly higher during menstruation as compared to mid-cycle values in premenopausal women. The significant factors leading to higher CA125 levels are days of menses and caffeine consumption.

Abstract

Background:
One of the well-known causes of subfertility is polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Genetic components play a critical role in the etiology of PCOS. The recognition of differentially expressed genes in PCOS patients might provide a better understanding of the pathophysiology of this syndrome and paves the way for novel therapeutics. Gene expression profiles in cumulus cells (CCs) could be used as biological criteria for embryo competence and their analysis might lead to important molecular information about embryo quality. CALM1, PSMD6, and AK124742 are three well-known genes associated with embryo development. Therefore, the objective of this study was to compare the expression of CALM1, PSMD6, and AK124742 genes in the CCs of infertile PCOS patients with their expression in the CCs of the donor fertile group.

Materials and Methods:
CCs were collected from the follicular fluid of 33 patients with PCOS as the experimental group and 33 cumulus donor women who were referred to the infertility center for egg donation as the control group. CCs were frozen until genetic testing. The expression of CALM1, PSMD6, and AK124742 genes was detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction.

Results:

CALM1 and AK124742 gene expressions significantly increased (CALM1 P = 0.003) (AK124742 P = 0.000) and PSMD6 expression significantly decreased (P = 0.002) in the PCOS group compared to the cumulus donor (control) group.

Conclusion:
Therefore, our research findings suggest that the potential impact of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) on fertility could be attributed to modifications in the expression levels of genes that affect the reproductive.

Abstract

Background:
Colorectal cancer (CRC) has been often the main reason for dying worldwide. Many factors are implicated in the progress of colorectal carcinoma, one of the chiefs of which is DNA methylation. Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 3 (IGFBP3) and twist homolog 1 (TWIST1) genes have already been studied and are potential biomarkers for early colorectal diagnosis. Therefore, we designed this research to assess the levels of methylation of these genes in stool specimens of patients with CRC.

Materials and Methods:
A whole of 80 specimens containing 40 stool specimens from CRC patients and 40 specimens from healthy individuals as a control group was investigated. DNA was extracted using the bisulfate method and methylation of the candidate genes was assessed using methylation-sensitive high-resolution melting method. Differences in the methylation levels between CRC patients and controls were assessed by statistical analysis.

Results:
Our study showed significant hypomethylation in both IGFBP3 and TWIST1 promoters in patients’ samples compared with normal individuals and notably the promoter hypomethylation found in these genes appeared to occur simultaneously (P < 0.0001 and P < 0.0025, respectively). Meantime, hypomethylation of these genes had not any significant connection with medical results.

Conclusion:
Our results propose that the IGFBP3 and TWIST1 genes’ methylation status can serve as potential biomarkers for early CRC diagnosis. However, more studies are still necessary to better appreciate the methylation pattern of these two genes in CRC and to prove their effects on protein levels.

La végétation contractée de l’ouest du Niger constitue des écosystèmes dans lesquels les communautés locales tirent l’essentiel de leur subsistance de l’exploitation du bois. Les animaux y pâturent pendant toute la saison des pluies. Sa dégradation s’est accentuée ces trois dernières décennies, sous l’effet, principalement de la pression anthropique et du climat. Cette étude visait à analyser la dynamique de cette végétation de 1990 à 2020, dans les communes de Kouré, Farey, Gaya et Tanda. Les images Landsat 5TM (1990) et Landsat 8 de novembre (2020) ont été utilisées. La classification non supervisée par l’algorithme iso-data et le calcul des superficies au moyen du logiciel ENVI et Excel ont permis de quantifier les transformations spatiales survenues sur la base du fichier HBF, dont la sortie est une matrice de transition. Les NDVI ont été calculés grâce à la commande Quick statistic d’ENVI et les indices Standardisés des Précipitations à partir des cumuls annuels des précipitations. Les résultats ont montré une régression de végétation contractée régulière de 63,26%, de 55,76% et de 34,75% respectivement à Kouré, à Farey et dans le bloc Gaya/Tanda. De plus, une régression de la végétation contractée dégradée de 40,74%, de 555,39% et de 8,29% été enregistrée respectivement à Kouré à Farey et dans le au bloc Gaya/Tanda. La corrélation positive entre l’indice standardisé de précipitation et l’indice de végétation a été significative à Farey et non significatif à Kouré et Gaya.
The contracted vegetation of western Niger constitutes ecosystems in which local communities derive most of their livelihood from timber exploitation. Animals graze here throughout the rainy season. Its degradation has increased over the last three decades, mainly due to anthropic pressure and climate. The aim of this study was to analyze the dynamics of this vegetation from 1990 to 2020, in the communes of Kouré, Farey, Gaya and Tanda. Landsat 5TM (1990) and Landsat 8 November (2020) images were used. Unsupervised classification using the iso-data algorithm and area calculations using ENVI and Excel software were used to quantify spatial transformations based on the HBF file, the output of which is a transition matrix. NDVI was calculated using ENVI's Quick statistic command, and Standardized Precipitation Indices were calculated from annual rainfall totals. The results showed a regular contracted vegetation regression of 63.26%, 55.76% and 34.75% respectively at Kouré, Farey and in the Gaya/Tanda block. In addition, a regression of degraded contracted vegetation of 40.74%, 555.39% and 8.29% was recorded in Kouré, Farey and the Gaya/Tanda block respectively. The positive correlation between the standardized rainfall index and the vegetation index was significant in Farey and insignificant in Kouré and Gaya.

The study assessed the collective leadership competencies of agricultural researchers in selected agricultural institutes in Oyo state, Nigeria. A multistage sampling procedure was used to select 177 agricultural researchers for the study. Data were analyzed using, percentages, weighted mean scores, and logit regression analysis. Results showed that 28.4% of the employee daily create and maintain clarity in their professional vision. Also, the result on the compass dimension of employees’ engagement showed that 47.7% invested their time in relationship building. In addition, for the compass dimension on innovation, 63.6% of the employees stated that they nurture creativity and stay open to new ideas. For collective intelligence, 38.0% of the employees revealed daily established structured dialogues that harvest different perspectives. There was a significant relationship between future possibilities (r=0.03*), innovation (r=0.001*), and collective leadership competencies. The agricultural researchers’ collective leadership competencies are very low. Sensitization workshops on collective leadership be organized by relevant institutions for agricultural researchers.

Objective: Mental distress is prevalent and increasing in tertiary institutions. This study compared the prevalence of mental distress and help-seeking behaviour among undergraduates in public and private universities in Osun State, Nigeria.
Methods: A comparative cross-sectional design was used to collect data from 910 respondents in one public and one private university of Osun State, using a multistage sampling technique. Data was collected with pre-tested, semi-structured, self-administered questionnaires. Data were analysed using IBM SPSS version 22. Univariate and bivariate analyses were conducted with a level of statistical significance set at p < 0.05. Ethical clearance was obtained from the Institute of Public Health Obafemi Awolowo University.
Results: The mean age and standard deviation for public university students was 20.74 ± 2.19 years and 19.02 ± 2.27 years for private university students (p<0.001). The prevalence of mental distress was 40.4% in the public university and 43.6% in the private university (p=0.324). All respondents with mental distress in both universities sought help in the preceding 12 months. Respondents in both institutions commonly sought informal sources of help from parents and friends. A significantly higher proportion of respondents in the private university (62.9%) sought help from formal sources in the 12 months prior to the study compared with respondents in the public university (37.1%) (p=0.012).
Conclusion: The prevalence of mental distress is high in both universities with informal sources of help- seeking frequently reported. There is a need for university authorities to promote professional help-seeking in these universities.

Published: November 2023

Children under-five years of age are among the vulnerable group mostly affected by morbidity and mortality due to malaria. Insecticide treated nets (ITNs) have proved to be effective in reducing malaria transmission and increasing child survival. Significant investment into scaling up of ITNs has been done but achieving actual utilisation among beneficiaries is still a challenge in malaria endemic regions including Ghana. The study aimed to assess factors influencing utilisation of ITNs among children under-five years in Kpone-On-Sea in Ghana. We used a cross-sectional community survey design to determine the proportion of children under-five years of age sleeping under ITNs and factors influencing utilisation of ITNs among care-givers in Kpone-On-Sea. We randomly sampled 325 care-givers of children under-five years between March and June 2017. Microsoft Excel version 2016 and SPSS were used for data entry and analysis, and further analysis was conducted using STATA version 14 software. Chi-square test was used to test for associations and multiple logistic regression to determine strength of associations. We found that the proportion of children under-five years sleeping under ITNs was 91%. Factors associated with ITN utilisation among children under-five years included caregivers’ level of education (p<0.01), their awareness that children under-five years are most at risk of malaria (P<0.05), knowledge that ITN protect against mosquito bite (P<0.02), knowledge on the importance of ITNs in preventing malaria (P<0.01), ITN ownership (P<0.03), type of ITN owned (p<0.02) and the period within which caregivers utilise ITN (P<0.00). We also found high ownership of ITNs among caregivers, and no difference between caregivers’ knowledge on malaria and its prevention. These data improved the current knowledge of ITNs utilisation among caregivers of children under-five years and offer opportunities to conduct further studies in other regions of Ghana.
