Published: February 2023

In this research work, a survey of gamma radiation dose level in scrap metals from scrap metal markets in Jos metropolis was carried out using the gamma scout radiation detector. Measurement were taken from eleven randomly identified scrap metals market in Jos. Results from this study show that the mean background radiation was 0.213 µSv/hr with a maximum and minimum values of 0.299µSv/hr and 0.165 µSv/hr respectively. The maximum background_ADR(Background Annual Dose Rate) was 47.656µSv/yr and was observed in YTM and GCFGR markets which were mixed scraps and automobile scrap metals in nature. These values are higher than standard background radiation of 0.133µSv/hr and are below the ICRP maximum permissible limit of 0.57 µSv/hr. The values of the measured annual radiation dose rate for all the scrap markets[Gamma radiation Annual Dose Rate (A_ADR), Beta Annual Dose Rate (B_ADR), Alpha radiation Annual Dose Rate (C_ADR)] were lower than the ICRP recommended limit of 1000 µSv/yr (1 mSv/yr) for the public and 20000µSv/yr for occupationally exposed work personnel. The studied areas are confirmed to be within the permissible limit and so may not pose any significant radiological health effects or hazards on the general public and the workers. These findings suggest regular assessment should be carried out at these areas to ensure that exposures are kept as low as reasonably achievable and within the tolerable limit of exposures.
Analysis of pantun writing skills of class v students of SDN Sirnagalih 2
Authors: Santoso Yolanda Marsha 
Published: February 2023

Background: Skills are the focus of experts, one of the skills that must be achieved is the skill of writing rhymes.
Purpose: this study aims to determine the extent to which students are able to make poetry works that are carried out at SDN SIRNAGALIH 2, Bogor Regency.
Design and methods: The type of research method used in this research is Descriptive Qualitative Method.
Results: The results of the analysis of several rhymes written by class V students have fulfilled the theoretical rhyme requirements (Masruchin, 2017). However, a rhyme that rhymes a-a-a-a is found, but the results of this paper can still be said to be a rhyme because it is in accordance with the theory (Attas, 2022) and (Pasaribu, 2021). The students' rhymes written in one line have 6-14 syllables but are still said to be rhymes because they are in accordance with the theory (Riandi, 2020) and (Mutohharoh et al., 2018). It can be concluded that not all rhymes written by students of class V at SDN SIRNAGALIH 2 meet the theoretical rhyme requirements (Masruchin, 2017).

Published: February 2023

Incremental sheet forming (ISF) technology is a suitable and flexible solution to create complex 3D geometries of the sheet. A sheet is gradually formed into the desired shape with a forming tool usually attached to a CNC machine or robot. This process is valid with metal as well as with polymer sheets. However, the inaccuracy of geometry and occurring process errors in previously discussed industries prove the novelty of the technology.
In this research a novel single point heated toll with control system for incremental sheet forming process is proposed and investigated. Experimental research results revealed main heating parameters necessary for ISF and mechanical properties dependency from heating.

Published: February 2023

In the present work, enhancement of the thermal performance of a central processor unit (CPU) cooling system through a heat sink subjected to an impinging air jet is realized. The height of the impinging air jet duct, the mode of air flow on the heat sink, air blowing mode and as well as the suction blow mode "pull" and the air jet duct geometry are three important influence parameters on the phenomenon. The results obtained show that a jet height H = 20mm, a convergent duct of H = 40mm in height and a hair dryer tip provide further improvement of the cooling technique. The two preceding parameters combined with the fan air suction blow mode improve the performance by at least 11,2% compared to the initial configuration (marketed product), having as characteristics (H = 0mm, fan in the blowing push mode). The use of a converging duct and a hair dryer conduit show that the velocities from the hair dryer tip far exceed those from the best standard conduit height, H=20 mm. That said, the improvement of the flow in the central zone is substantially achieved, which consequently improves the heat removal in this zone at least 19%.

Authors: Du Zixue , Wu Haoxin , Yang Zhen , Wen Xiaoxia 
Published: February 2023

This paper presents an intelligent formation operation mode (IFOM) based on straddle-type rapid transit vehicles. Taking the straddle-type rapid transit vehicles operating in IFOM as the object, the operation mode of the vehicle is defined in the control system architecture of the straddle-type rapid transit system. In addition, considering the heterogeneous operating environ-ment of formation vehicles, an evaluation index system for formation vehicles is proposed. Then, according to the vehicle longitudinal dynamics model and the artificial potential field formation algorithm, we build the formation vehicle operation controller. After that, referring to the vehicle dynamics model, a multi rigid body dynamics simulation model of formation vehicles in a heterogeneous operating environment is established. Finally, the operating performance of formation vehicles in heterogeneous operating environment is analyzed. The analysis results show that the operation performance of the formation vehicle meets the requirements of the evaluation index system, which proves the feasibility of the formation operation of straddle-type rapid transit vehicles operating in IFOM.

Published: February 2023

Hyperglycemia, insulin resistance disturbances, and other common metabolic syndrome signs are currently related to a poor outcome of Parkinson disease. There were no widely accepted nutritional intervention protocols approved for Parkinson’s disease. That author exposes a brief revision of the role of insulin resistance and glycemic metabolism dysfunction in Parkinson’s patients with diabetes. In an ongoing study, with a complete record of dietary habits and diet components, it was demonstrated no significant differences between diabetics (n = 19) and nondiabetics (N = 53). But body composition shows some particularities. A result that attracts attention is total fat analysis and percentage of fat of PD patients showing that diabetics are somewhat fattier. The self-reported presence of obesity does not differ from recorded data of weight and BMI, with no significant differences between the two groups. Taking into consideration that both groups have comparable degrees of disease progression, as measured by the UPDRS, it could be possible to infer that the maintenance of a relative overweight was a protective factor in this group of diabetic evaluated patients. Considerations are made about hasty intervention of nutritional approach for PD patients with diabetes, including body fat reduction, prescription of statins and therapeutic options for diabetes control.
New Progress in Imaging of Pituitary Diseases
Authors: Wu Youtu 
Published: February 2023

In the last 20 years, there have been advances in imaging techniques for pituitary diseases. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) particularly presents high-quality structural images and the essential information needed to authorize surgery, radiation therapy, and/or drug therapy. These images can assist in monitoring long-term outcomes. Recent technological advances, such as the advent of 7-Tesla MRI, have been used for measuring tumor consistency in pituitary adenomas. Microadenomas and other pituitary incidentaloma have been more recognized in the presence of golden-angle radial sparse parallel imaging and conventional dynamic contrast-enhanced techniques. However, standard structural (anatomical) imaging, mainly in the form of MRI, acts inadequately to identify all tumors, especially microadenomas (< 1 cm diameter), recurrent adenomas, and several incidentalomas. In this respect, nuclear isotope (radionuclide) imaging promotes tumor detection beneficially. All these imaging improvements may play a central role in clinical practice, especially when considering diagnosis, differential diagnosis, or definitive intervention. They further form accurate diagnosis, advise surgery, and decrease the risk of disrupting normal pituitary function.

Prosecutors are Functional officials who are authorized by the Act to conduct prosecutions. In the Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Criminal Justice System, that at every level of diversion is sought for diversion, the concept of diversion is the transfer of the settlement of children's cases from the criminal justice process to processes outside the criminal justice system. The application of the concept of diversion has an influence on the role of the prosecutor in performing and carrying out his duties. Attorney General Regulation No. 006/A/J.A/2015 on diversion guidelines at the prosecution level requires law enforcement officials, especially the Public Prosecutor, to handle children's cases using a restorative justice approach and seeking d iversion. Similarly kasus No. 8/Pid.Sus-Anak/2015/PN. Natural resources need to carry out a diversion process, the purpose of this study is to make the public understand more, about diversion of cases of children facing the law, because so far there are many cases of children facing the law, who do not use diversion in solving children's cases. The research methods used by normative juridical and empirical approaches, based on the results of research at the Sidoarjo District Attorney's Office regarding the diversion process are not fully in accordance with the provisions of the law, but have attached importance to the principle of best interests for children.

Techno Anthropology
Authors: Elgaard Jensen Torben 
Published: February 2023

From the introduction:
I am very honoured to be appointed professor in these two topics: Techno anthropology – a new education -and in STS - a fairly young research field. But this is also a fairly challenging appointment, since both techno anthropology and STS are relatively unknown and rather incomprehensible to the general public. In fact, a consultant from the Danish Federation of Industries recently declared that their member companies would almost certainly not want candidates with new strange combinations such as techno anthropology. The companies, she claimed, would prefer well-established educations such as lawyers, engineers and economists.
My talk today is not for the benefit of those who would reject techno anthropology out of hand – or STS for that matter. I take it as a good sign that you have come here voluntarily, and I will therefore assume some measure of good faith on your part.

Authors: Stumpf Fernanda Muniz de Macedo , de Oliveira Alessandra Silva Dias , Faerstein Eduardo , Curioni Cintia Chaves 
Published: February 2023

Background
This study aimed (1) To investigate the association between the Body Mass Index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) with multimorbidity (MM), and (2) To identify patterns of MM and investigate the relationship between BMI and WC with specific combinations of MM (patterns of MM).

Methods
A cross-sectional study was conducted with 2,698 participants of the fourth phase of the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (Pró-Saúde Study). MM was defined by the presence of two or more morbidities. MM patterns were identified by exploratory factor analysis based on tetrachoric correlations. Logistic regression models were used to assess associations (odds ratios (OR) with the respective confidence intervals (CI)).

Results
Of the total number of participants, 39.5% were overweight and 30.0% were obese; 89.0% (n = 1,468) of women and 77.0% (n = 952) of men were abdominally obese. Indeed, 60.7% (n = 1,635) was identified with MM. For the category four or more morbidities, OR values of 5.98 (95% CI 4.84–7.13) and 7.48 (95% CI 6.14–8.18) were found for each point of increase in BMI, and 6.74 (95% CI 5.48–7.99) and 8.48 (95% CI 7.64–9.29) for each additional centimeter in the WC, for female and male, respectively. Five patterns of MM were identified: respiratory, osteoarticular, cardiometabolic, gastric, and thyroid diseases (56.4% of the total variance). Positive associations were found between BMI and patterns of cardiometabolic, osteoarticular, thyroid and gastric diseases (higher OR of 1.09 [95% CI 1.04–1.14]) and less pronounced between WC and patterns of cardiometabolic and osteoarticular (higher OR of 1.04 [95% CI 1.03–1.04]).

Conclusions
The results showed that an increase of both BMI and WC was associated with a higher number of morbidities and with patterns of cardiometabolic and osteoarticular diseases.
