Model ETAS Spatio-Temporal pada Analisis Pemetaan Intensitas Kegempaan di Wilayah Sumatera
Authors: Wijaya Andreas Rony 
Published: March 2023

High seismic activity forces Indonesia to mitigate natural disasters to minimize the impact of these disasters. One of the mitigation efforts that can be done is to know the possibility of an earthquake occurring in an area. Earthquakes, which are random phenomena, cannot be determined with certainty. Therefore, studies in seismological statistics can be used. One of the studies in seismological statistics that discusses the occurrence of earthquakes is the epidemic-type aftershock sequence (ETAS) model. This model describes the main seismic activity followed by aftershocks. The ETAS model, which only considers the parameters of time and event magnitude, was developed into a Spatio-temporal ETAS model, which also describes spatial parameters or locations. This study used the Spatio-temporal ETAS model to analyze the Sumatra region’s seismic activity from 2000-2022. Earthquake data sources are obtained from the United State Geological Survey (USGS). Based on data analysis, the Spatio-temporal ETAS model expressed in terms of the conditional intensity function shows that earthquakes that occur in the Sumatera region with a large magnitude tend to produce a large conditional intensity function as well. The spatial component of the spatio-temporal ETAS model can be explained by mapping the peak ground acceleration (PGA). The results of the PGA mapping show that seismic activity in the Sumatera region is prone to occur along the north and west coasts of the Sumatra region, with PGA values ranging from 0.2 g to 0.9 g. The larger the PGA value means, the higher the risk of an earthquake occurring in the area marked with a reddish-yellow dot or contour.

FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH BURNOUT AMONG NURSES DURING COVID-19 PANDEMIC: A SCOPING REVIEW
Authors: Wati Suis Galischa , Sutrimo Ade 
Published: March 2023

The current COVID-19 pandemic has become a serious threat and difficult challenge for global health. This detrimental condition increases nurses' workload, the risk of fatigue and can cause stress on nurses that can induce burnout. Untreated burnout must be examined thoroughly because it can lead to a decrease of nurses’ performance and prompted to nursing errors that will affect the quality of health services and patient care outcomes. However study related to nursing burnout is still rarely performed. This scoping review aimed to identify several factors related to burnout in nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study was conducted between January-March 2021 by searching and analyzing all eligible studies from several electronic databases including ProQuest, Science Direct, Scopus, and Springer Link for related articles published from 2019 to 2021. The following terms were used in the search: burnout, nursing burnout, cause of nursing burnout, and COVID-19. A systematic process using The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and a Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guideline were carried out in the review process. A total of 10 article journals were finally selected of 343 studies. Sociodemographic factors (female, marriage, having child, education qualification, age, and ethnicity), psychological factors (depression, stress, anxiety, resilience, and self-efficacy), and also occupational factors (workload, job demands, working environment, working as a front line worker, direct contact with a COVID-19 patient, availability of personal protective equipment, and salary) were identified as factors that influenced burnout syndrome among nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic.

PHYSIOLOGICAL DISORDERS DUE TO THE USE OF PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT ON NURSES IN THE ERA OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC: LITERATURE STUDY
Authors: Nurwidiyanti Erika , Santoso Teguh , Afrianti Dwi 
Published: March 2023

The use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is important for nurses when providing services to patients to avoid infectious diseases including COVID-19. However, continuous use of PPE can cause physiological problems such as headache, facial dermatitis, difficulty breathing, irritation, and discomfort. This study aims to determine various physiological disorders due to the use of PPE on nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic based on the results of a critical review of scientific articles. The search for scientific articles was carried out through the search engines Google Scholar, Pubmed, and EBSCO with the keywords personal protective equipment, physiological disorders, nurses, and the COVID-19 pandemic. The search is limited to 2020-2021, which is accessible in full text for free. The results of the literature study found 13 suitable articles. It is known that the use of PPE has effects such as headache, dermatitis, itching, rash, difficulty breathing, irritation, reactions to body skin tissue, acne and discomfort when used continuously for an indefinite period of time. It can be concluded that the use of PPE has a negative impact on the physiological condition of nurses if PPE is used continuously without regard to safety management in the use of PPE.

Authors: Fan Lingling , Wang Zhengyu , Miao Zhixin , Maslennikov Slava 
Published: March 2023

<p>In this letter, a new dissipative energy flow (DEF) method is derived for source detection of oscillations associated with inverter-based resources (IBRs). The conventional DEF method encounters difficulty in correctly locating the oscillation source in an IBR-penetrated system simulated in electromagnetic transient (EMT) environment. By examining the fundamental assumption, we derived a new DEF suitable for IBRs acting as current sources. The detection results show the IBR oscillations’ origins can be correctly located using the proposed DEF. </p>

Published: March 2023

<p>The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus continues to have a significant impact on the global population. To effectively triage patients and understand the progression of the disease, a metric-based analysis of diagnostic techniques is necessary. The objective of the present study is to identify COVID-19 from chest CT scans and determine the extent of severity, defined by a severity score that indicates the volume of infection. An unsupervised preprocessing pipeline is proposed to extract relevant clinical features and utilize this information to employ a pre-trained ImageNet model to extract discriminative features. Subsequently, a shallow feed-forward neural network is trained to classify the available CT scans into three classes namely COVID-19, Community-Acquired Pneumonia, and Normal. Through various ablation studies, we find that a domain-specific pre-processing pipeline improves classification accuracy significantly. In terms of classification accuracy, our approach when evaluated on publicly available datasets is seen to have an absolute improvement of 6\% F1 score over the baseline model. Further, the estimated infection severity score is observed to be well correlated with radiologists' assessments. The results support the necessity of data-driven pre-processing before implementing learning algorithms.</p>
Towards Visual-Prompt Temporal Answer Grounding in Instructional Video
Authors: Li Shutao , Li Bin , Sun Bin , Weng Yixuan 
Published: March 2023

<p>The temporal answer grounding in instructional video (TAGV) is a new task naturally derived from temporal sentence grounding in general video (TSGV). Given an untrimmed instructional video and a text question, this task aims at locating the frame span from the video that can semantically answer the question. Existing methods tend to formulate the TAGV task with a visual span-based predictor by matching the video frame span queried by the text question. However, due to the weak correlations of the semantic features between the textual question and visual answer, existing methods adopting the visual span-based predictor perform poorly in the TAGV task. In this paper, we propose a visual-prompt text span localizing (VPTSL) method, which introduces the timestamped subtitles to perform the text span localization. Specifically, we design the text span-based predictor, where the input text question, video subtitles, and visual prompt features are jointly learned with the pre-trained language model for enhancing the joint semantic representations. As a result, the TAGV task is reformulated with the visual-prompt subtitle span prediction matching the visual answer. Extensive experiments on three instructional video datasets, namely MedVidQA, TutorialVQA, and VehicleVQA, show that the proposed method outperforms several state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods by a large margin in terms of mIoU score, which demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed visual prompt and text span-based predictor.

Published: March 2023

<p>6G will connect heterogeneous intelligent agents to make them natively operate complex cooperative tasks. When connecting intelligence, two main research questions arise to identify how artificial intelligence and machine learning models behave depending on: i) their input data quality, affected by errors induced by interference and additive noise during wireless communication; ii) their contextual effectiveness and resilience to interpret and exploit the meaning behind the data. Both questions are within the realm of semantic and goal-oriented communications. With this paper we investigate on how to effectively share communication spectrum resources between a legacy communication systems (i.e., data-oriented) and a new goal-oriented edge intelligence one. Specifically, we address the scenario of an enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB) service, i.e., a user uploading a video stream to a radio access point, interfering with an edge inference system, in which a user uploads images to a Mobile Edge Host that runs a classification task. Our objective is to achieve, through cooperation, the eMBB service highest data rate, subject to a target goal-effectiveness of the edge inference service, namely the probability of confident inference on time. We first formalize a general definition of goal in the context of wireless communications. This includes the goal-effectiveness, (i.e., the goal achievability rate, or the probability of achieving the goal), as well as that of goal cost (i.e., the network resource consumption needed to achieve the goal with target effectiveness). We argue and show, through numerical evaluations, that communication reliability and goal-effectiveness are not straightforwardly linked. Then, after a performance evaluation aiming to clarify the difference between communication performance and goal-effectiveness, a long-term optimization problem is formulated and solved via Lyapunov stochastic network optimization tools, to guarantee the desired target performance. Finally, our numerical results assess the advantages of the proposed optimization, and the superiority of the goal-oriented strategy against baseline 5G compliant legacy approaches, under both stationary and non-stationary communication (and computation) environments. </p>

Treasure Maps for Detections of Extreme Energy Cosmic Rays
Authors: Globus Noémie , Fedynitch Anatoli , Blandford Roger D. 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
The origin of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays is a 60 yr old mystery. We show that with more events at the highest energies (above 150 EeV) it may be possible to limit the character of the sources and learn about the intervening magnetic fields. Individual sources become more prominent, relative to the background, as the horizon diminishes. An event-by-event, composition-dependent observatory would allow a “tomography” of the sources as different mass and energy groups probe different GZK horizons. A major goal here is to provide a methodology to distinguish between steady and transient or highly variable sources. Using recent Galactic magnetic field models, we calculate “treasure” sky maps to identify the most promising directions for detecting Extreme Energy Cosmic Rays doublets, events that are close in arrival time and direction. On this basis, we predict the incidence of doublets as a function of the nature of the source host galaxy. Based on the asymmetry in the distribution of time delays, we show that observation of doublets might distinguish source models. In particular, the Telescope Array hotspot could exhibit temporal variability as it is in a “magnetic window” of small time delays. These considerations could improve the use of data with existing facilities and the planning of future ones such as Global Cosmic Ray Observatory (GCOS).

The genus Cantonius Théry, 1929 is a small group with two subgenera and 12 species. However, the biology of this genus is still unknown.
In this paper, three species of the genus Cantonius Théry, 1929 were found on bamboo leaves, revealing for the first time that Cantonius species are also leaf-miners. Two new species were recorded from Jiangxi Province and are described here: Cantonius (Cantonius) anjiensis sp. n. (host plant: Pleioblastus amarus) and Cantonius (Procantonius) qiyunensis sp. n. (host plant: Bambusa blumeana) followed by C. (P.) austrisinicus Kalashian, 2021 (host plant: Oligostachyum paniculatum) recorded from Guangxi Province. Including habitats, photos of three species together with C. (P.) qiyunensis sp. n. pupa, host plants, and leaf mines of the three species are presented. Moreover, the bionomics and habits of the genus are discussed for the first time, and a hypothesis for the distribution of Cantonius is provided.
Raphaëlle Décloître, Le récit allégorique de la fin du Moyen Âge : poétique d’un effacement inévité
Authors: Décloître Raphaëlle 
Published: March 2023

La présente thèse porte sur les récits allégoriques écrits entre 1453 et 1510, qui constituent les derniers représentants directs de l’importante tradition allégorico-narrative popularisée par le Roman de la Rose. Dans la mesure où ils s’ancrent par rapport à un avant et dans l’absence d’un après, ces textes ont développé une poétique tardive qui leur est propre, fondée sur le respect de l’héritage littéraire plus que sur la rivalité, sur la préservation des procédés d’écriture plus que sur leur rénovation. Se dissociant de la filiation critique inaugurée par Jean de Meun, ils renouent ainsi avec les propositions allégorico-narratives non conflictuelles de Guillaume de Lorris, qu’ils honorent par un certain conservatisme. Si l’étude des dernières manifestations d’un genre nécessite, en plus de s’attarder aux considérations poétiques, de replacer les œuvres tardives dans l’histoire littéraire (pour comprendre leur état de postérité et de finalité), il semble que, dans le cas des derniers récits allégoriques, la poétique des textes soit révélatrice de leur positionnement : au-delà des bouleversements culturels du tournant du xvie siècle, le rapport paisible de ces œuvres à leur filiation paraît en effet avoir peu encouragé le renouvellement de la pratique.
Doen metodologies wat akademies verkondig word: Ontwikkelings en geleenthede vir homiletiek in SA

Published: March 2023

Bringing methodology and theory closer: Development and challenges in South African homiletics. The homiletic landscape in South Africa is rich and varied. In this contribution, we attempt to paint with broad brushstrokes this landscape. We write as practical theologians with a shared love for homiletics, but also with an interest in doing what we preach in terms of research and teaching. Put differently, we argue in the light of existing literature that there should be congruence between theories we advance, and methodologies we employ. We dwell on themes such as decolonisation, justice and reconciliation, poverty and inequality that are characteristic of our homiletical landscape. We conclude with the thought that as Christianity in South Africa grows and preachers increase in number, so do the opportunities for empirical academic involvement in preaching. However, the occasion also poses a challenge for academics engaged in homiletics, namely, to practise what they preach by bringing theory and method in a closer relationship.Contribution: The article engages current homiletical research in South Africa by means of a literature study, specifically highlighting the challenges and opportunities posed to the discipline of Homiletics within a postcolonial South African context, and at ecumenical faculties of Theology. These challenges and opportunities are especially important for a discipline such as Homiletics in South Africa with its strong Protestant and Reformed roots, to reflect on future methodologies pertaining to research and teaching.

Published: March 2023

Background: Targeted therapies combined with anthracycline chemotherapy have improved the survival of patients with acute promyelocytic leukaemia (APL). High short-term mortality has been demonstrated in low- and upper-middle-income countries, with limited local data.Aim: This study aimed to describe the demographic variables, clinical characteristics and laboratory features associated with the short-term mortality of patients with APL.Setting: The Division of Clinical Haematology, Universitas Academic Hospital (UAH), Bloemfontein, South Africa.Methods: Demographic and clinical data were obtained from the patients’ files and the MEDITECH electronic filing system. Laboratory data were retrieved from TrakCare, the National Health Laboratory Service (NHLS) electronic database. Data were analysed to report the demographic variables, clinical characteristics and laboratory features, and the short-term mortality of all newly diagnosed patients treated for APL during the 5-year period, 2015–2019.Results: Twenty-seven patients were included in this study. The 7-day mortality rate was 18.5%, and the 30-day mortality rate was 33.3%. Sanz and modified Sanz scores were significantly associated with 7-day mortality but not 30-day mortality. Creatinine ≥ 105 µmol/L was significantly associated with both 7- and 30-day mortalities. Patients who died within the first 30 days of admission had significantly higher median white cell counts and partial thromboplastin times. Hypogranular APL was identified in 55.6% of patients.Conclusion: The short-term mortality of APL at UAH is in keeping with findings at other treatment centres in middle-income countries. Despite being considered rare, hypogranular APL was the predominant type in this cohort.Contribution: This study highlights the need for practices pertaining to peripheral smear utility and interpretation to be reviewed outside of tertiary centres.
Oxidative status and its relationship with glycemic state in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus
Authors: El-Din Elshalkami Nada M.M. , Salem Nanees A.-B. , ElShabrawy Walaa O. , Abou-Elhassan Samir M. 
Published: March 2023

Background
Diabetes represents one of the most common diseases in school-aged children. Poor glycemic control in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) usually leads to more oxidative stress, increased production of oxygen-free radicals, and more diabetic complications. Oxidative stress plays a pivotal role in the development of diabetes complications, both microvascular and cardiovascular. The metabolic abnormalities of diabetes cause mitochondrial superoxide overproduction in endothelial cells of both large and small vessels and also in the myocardium.

Aim
The aim of the current study was to assess the oxidative status and its relationship with glycemic state of T1DM in children.

Patients and methods
This was a case–control study conducted on 50 children. The first group enrolled 30 children aged 2–12 years of both sexes with T1DM selected from patients attending the outpatient clinic of endocrinology unit of Mansoura University Children’s Hospital in the period between December 2020 and December 2021 and were compared with 20 age-matched and sex-matched children who served as healthy controls.

Results
The malondialdehyde (MDA) and MDA/total antioxidant capacity ratio were significantly increased among cases compared with the control group. MDA and MDA/total antioxidant capacity ratio could be used as reliable predictors for differentiating between cases and controls with high sensitivity and specificity. However, they could not be used as a reliable indicator for differentiation between cases with microalbuminuria from case without. Oxidant/antioxidant status seemed to be significantly increased among cases with poor diabetic control followed by controlled diabetic group and lastly the healthy control group.

Conclusion
Cases with T1DM were associated with a significant increase in oxidative stress, especially in poor controlled ones. Additionally, oxidative stress markers could be used as valid markers for T1DM.
