Abstract

Background The clinical application of the innovative instantaneous elasticity and fat attenuation measurement technology, Hepatus, is currently in the evaluation stage. This study aimed to compare the detection performance of Fibroscan and Hepatus in patients with metabolic dysregulation who are "at-risk" for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).Methods Between January 2021 and April 2021, 149 patients were enrolled in this study. Clinical data were collected, and all patients underwent both Fibroscan and Hepatus assessments to determine liver stiffness measurement (LSM) and attenuation parameters. The correlation between the results obtained from the two transient elastography (TE) devices was analyzed. Receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC) were constructed to compare the diagnostic value of Fibroscan and Hepatus for Hepatic Steatosis Index (HSI)-based NAFLD.Results The detection success rate of Hepatus (100.0%) was higher than that of Fibroscan (96.0%). LSM (r = 0.663, P0.05) and attenuation parameters (r = 0.778, P0.05) obtained by Fibroscan and Hepatus were significantly correlated. Hepatus tended to produce a higher LSM (Hepatus vs. Fibroscan: 6.04 vs. 5.66 kPa, P=0.016) but a lower attenuation parameter than Fibroscan (Hepatus vs. Fibroscan: 264 vs. 277 dB/m, P0.001). The area under the ROC curve for detecting HSI-based NAFLD was 0.811 for Fibroscan and 0.832 for Hepatus.Conclusion Measurements obtained by Fibroscan and Hepatus are strongly correlated, and the diagnostic value of the two TE devices is comparable in detecting HSI-based NAFLD. Hepatus offer a potential TE alternative in NAFLD examination.

Abstract

This study aims to develop Hawgent Dynamic Mathematics Software Learning Media. The broad material of ICT-based kites as a medium for learning mathematics for grade IV SD students. The research method used in this research is Research and Development (R and D) with a 4-D model. The results of the material expert’s assessment of the six components include: the language aspect is 70%, the ease of use of learning media reaches the highest average of 90%, and it is concluded that the overall average percentage is 83.33%. It can be said that the ICT-based learning media that have been designed are in the feasible category. While the results of the material expert’s assessment of the four aspects obtained an average percentage of 87.89%. Based on the results of the study Hawgent Dynamic Mathematics Software Learning Media can be used as a learning media for learning mathematics to find the area ofa kite.

Abstract

This paper explores the scientific and technological contributions of ancient China and ancient Greece, highlighting key innovations and their lasting impacts. Ancient China was characterized by a practical and empirical approach to scientific inquiry, resulting in significant advancements in agriculture, astronomy, medicine, engineering, and information dissemination.  Greek contributions to medicine, guided by the Hippocratic Oath, laid the groundwork for ethical medical practice. Greek engineering and architectural innovations, exemplified by structures like the Parthenon, demonstrated their mastery of design and aesthetics. Greek advancements in astronomy and the philosophical ideas of Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle profoundly shaped Western scientific methodology and intellectual traditions. By comparing these two civilizations, the paper underscores the importance of both practical application and theoretical inquiry in the development of science and technology. The influence of cultural and philosophical contexts on scientific inquiry is also examined, highlighting the interplay between science, technology, and society. The legacies of ancient China and ancient Greece have profound implications for our understanding of the development of science and technology, emphasizing the cumulative nature of scientific progress and the enduring value of ancient knowledge. This study provides valuable insights into the rich heritage of these two great civilizations, offering inspiration for future advancements and the continued integration of ancient wisdom into contemporary practices.

Abstract

This paper examines the influence of China's economic reforms from 1978 to 2020 on the growth and development of fintech in the country. Initiated under Deng Xiaoping, these reforms transitioned China from a centrally planned economy to a market-oriented one, fostering unprecedented economic growth and modernization. This study explores how key reforms, such as the decentralization of economic decision-making, the establishment of Special Economic Zones (SEZs), and the opening up to foreign investment, have impacted the fintech sector. By analyzing early developments, key players, and technological advancements in fintech, the paper highlights the pivotal role of economic policies and investments in shaping China's digital financial landscape. The research employs qualitative methods, including interviews with industry experts and analysis of relevant documents, to provide a comprehensive understanding of the sector's evolution. The findings reveal that China's economic reforms have significantly influenced fintech growth, offering valuable insights for policymakers, businesses, and researchers interested in the interplay between economic policy and technological innovation.
