Abstract

Banjir dan rob atau masuknya air laut ke daratan karena pengaruh pasang-surut air laut, akhir-akhir ini menjadi masalah serius di wilayah Pantura Kab. Kendal. Banjir dan rob menjadikan kawasan yang terkena dampaknya menjadi permukiman kumuh karena insfrastruktur dan fasilitas umum yang tidak berfungsi.  Dampak dari banjir dan rob di DAS Kabupaten Kendal antara lain adanya genangan pada pemukiman, ratusan hektar tambak mengalami gagal panen, dan gangguan pada akses jalan pantura. Pemerintah Provinsi Jawa Tengah maupun Kabupaten/kota setempat telah melakukan upaya penanganan lokal baik perencanaan maupun konstruksi tetapi belum saling terintegrasi dengan baik. Untuk itu diperlukan pengaturan lebih lanjut yang salah satunya dengan penyusunan Studi Penanganan Banjir dan Rob di Kabupaten Kendal. Dengan mengetahui penyebab banjir dan rob, diharapkan dapat menunjang perencanaan wilayah, perencanaan dan pengembangan infrastruktur / sarana prasarana dasar, perencanaan perumahan / pemukiman maupun pengembangan ekonomi wilayah dalam upaya mitigasi bencana tersebut.

Abstract

Contractor selection plays a vital role in project management, where factors such as cost, quality, and time must be carefully considered. This study presents an innovative approach to optimize contractor selection using an AI-driven method based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). The objective is to achieve the best possible selection of contractors by considering multiple criteria simultaneously. Real-world data on cost estimates, quality scores, and project times are collected and normalized for fair comparison. The PSO algorithm is utilized to search for the optimal combination of contractors that minimizes cost, maximizes quality, and minimizes project time. The proposed weighted objective function evaluates the performance of each contractor based on the selected criteria. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the AI-driven PSO method in achieving optimal contractor selection. The findings highlight the potential of using AI techniques for decision-making in project management, enabling project stakeholders to make informed and data-driven contractor selection decisions. This research contributes to the growing body of knowledge on AI applications in project management and provides practical insights for project managers and stakeholders involved in contractor selection processes.

Abstract

Highlights: 1. This study was the first in Gresik, Indonesia, to conduct mass screening of tuberculosis among waste workers, comprising various demographic profiles.2. Although the tuberculosis screening of the waste workers showed negative results, mass examination using an acid-fast bacilli smear remains crucial to detect latent infections and prevent transmissions.   Abstract Tuberculosis is a major source of illness and mortality worldwide. Therefore, tuberculosis screening is important to increase the number of active case-finding in a community. Bacteriological examinations can be used to initiate community-based active case-finding. Waste workers face a high risk of contracting Mycobacterium tuberculosis due to their constant exposure to waste. This study aimed to conduct bacteriological examinations to identify tuberculosis infections among waste workers in Gresik, Indonesia, who were considered a high-risk group. An analytical observational study was carried out throughout September 2023 in the Ngipik subdistrict, Gresik, East Java, Indonesia. The primary study was conducted using a cross-sectional design using interviews, measurements, and sputum examinations for all samples. The screening involved a total of 72 waste workers who had daily contact with various types of sewage and waste, including medical waste. The data were analyzed descriptively because of the constant variable. Following the analysis, the data were presented using a table and a figure. According to the acid-fast bacilli examinations, all of the samples yielded negative results. Nevertheless, this study concludes that it is imperative to carry out mass tuberculosis screening in various settings, specifically among those with a high risk. Mass screening can uncover the potential of latent tuberculosis and, thus, reduce its transmission.

Abstract

Highlights:  1. Comics centered around tuberculosis offer a novel method tailored for specific audiences, specifically children or those of school age, to learn about the disease. 2. The tuberculosis comics feature the etiology, prevention, and treatment of tuberculosis conveyed through their unique design. 3. Comics can be an innovative promotional method to support the preventive campaign against tuberculosis.    Abstract As a tropical country, Indonesia continues to grapple with the prevalence of tuberculosis. This study conducted by the Department of Public Health and Preventive Medicine at Universitas Airlangga, Surabaya, Indonesia, presented a novel approach to prevent tuberculosis through measures tailored to the socio-cultural context of the population. Specifically, this study assessed how effective the use of tuberculosis comics is as an educational tool to inform junior high school students about tuberculosis. This research was quasi-experimental, with a one-group pre-test-post-test design. Seventy junior high school students in Dukun District, Gresik, Indonesia participated in this study. Each participant received a questionnaire consisting of ten questions about tuberculosis. Afterward, tuberculosis education was shared through comics. The post-test was carried out using the same questions as the pre-test. The data were analyzed using the R Program for Windows, version 4.1.3 (Auckland University, New Zealand). The analysis revealed a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test results (p < 0.0001). As indicated by the data, comics proved to be an effective method of educating people about infectious diseases, specifically tuberculosis. Here, we introduce an educational tool designed to revitalize the educational method for disseminating knowledge about infectious diseases. Ultimately, comics can increase students' interest in learning about tuberculosis, including its etiology, prevention, and treatment strategies.

Abstract

Highlights:1. By investigating knockdown-resistance (kdr) mutations associated with insecticide resistance, this research addresses a critical gap in understanding how these mutations may affect vector control strategies on Mengare Island, Gresik, Indonesia.2. This study provides essential data on the current status of dengue virus serotypes and resistance mutations in mosquito populations across the region, guiding local health authorities in developing targeted vector control strategies. AbstractDengue fever, caused by the dengue virus (DENV), poses a significant public health challenge, particularly in tropical regions. This study aimed to detect flavivirus presence, DENV serotypes, and knockdown-resistance (kdr) mutations in mosquito samples collected from Mengare Island, Gresik, Indonesia. A cross-sectional experimental design was employed, utilizing reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for flavivirus detection and serotyping, as well as for identifying kdr mutations. Ribonucleic acid (RNA) extraction was performed using the Quick-RNA™ Miniprep Plus Kit (Zymo Research, Irvine, CA, USA), followed by RT-PCR with specific primers for DENV serotypes 1–4 and kdr mutations (V1016G and F1534C). Six adult female Aedes albopictus mosquitoes were analyzed in this study. The results revealed no evidence of flavivirus infection or DENV serotypes in the mosquito samples, as no complementary deoxyribonucleic acid (cDNA) bands corresponding to expected base pair sizes were observed on the agarose gels. Similarly, the analysis of kdr mutations showed that all samples were homozygous wildtype, with no mutations detected at the V1016G or F1534C loci. In conclusion, these findings suggest the absence of active dengue virus transmission or notable insecticide resistance in the studied mosquito population from Mengare Island. This study highlights the importance of continuous monitoring of flavivirus presence and resistance mutations. The variability in kdr mutation frequencies across regions underscores the need for sustained surveillance and effective control measures to mitigate potential outbreaks in high-risk areas such as Mengare Island.
