The use of X-rays in medical imaging provides substantial diagnostic benefits but also poses risks associated with ionizing radiation exposure. Conventional lead-based protective aprons are effective but have major limitations, including excessive weight, rigidity, and potential toxicity. This study addresses a specific research gap by systematically evaluating the relationship between material thickness, radiation attenuation effectiveness, and the Half-Value Layer (HVL) of silicone rubber-based aprons filled with lead(II) oxide (PbO) at clinically relevant low-to-medium X-ray energies. An experimental method was employed by fabricating silicone–PbO composite apron prototypes with three thickness variations (2.5 mm, 3.0 mm, and 3.5 mm). Radiation attenuation tests were conducted at X-ray tube voltages of 60, 65, and 70 kV by measuring radiation intensity before and after transmission through the samples using a radiation detector, followed by calculating protection effectiveness and HVL values. The results demonstrate that apron thickness significantly influences radiation protection performance, with the highest attenuation of 85.11% achieved at a thickness of 3.5 mm. A moderate-to-strong positive correlation between thickness and protection effectiveness is observed at all voltage levels, with the highest coefficient of determination (R² = 0.916) at 65 kV. HVL values increase with thickness, indicating the need for thicker materials to achieve a 50% reduction in radiation intensity at higher attenuation levels. These findings highlight the novelty of quantitatively correlating thickness, attenuation effectiveness, and HVL within a single experimental framework and demonstrate that silicone rubber–PbO composite aprons have strong potential as a lightweight and flexible alternative to conventional lead aprons for clinical radiation protection at low-to-medium diagnostic X-ray energies.

Stunting remains a major public health challenge in Indonesia, affecting children’s physical growth and cognitive development due to inaccurate and delayed monitoring in community health centers. This study aims to develop an Internet of Things (IoT)-based anthropometric measurement and regional stunting mapping system that provides real-time, automated, and spatially contextualized data analysis. The novelty of this research lies in integrating IoT sensor networks with machine learning–based K-Means clustering and statistical validation through the Sum of Squared Error (SSE) method, supported by an automated email alert for high-risk areas. Unlike previous studies that focus solely on anthropometric measurement or standalone IoT monitoring, this study integrates real-time IoT-based data acquisition with K-Means clustering for regional stunting mapping and automated alert generation. The system employs an HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor, an MPU-6050 gyroscope, and an ESP32 microcontroller for data acquisition and transmission, followed by clustering analysis to categorize stunting prevalence into five levels. Experimental results show high measurement accuracy (mean error of 1.24%) and optimal clustering compactness (SSE = 1.72 × 10³ at k = 5), effectively identifying regions with very high prevalence and visualizing them through a web-based dashboard. Although the study is limited by the use of secondary datasets and pilot- scale validation, the findings demonstrate that the proposed IoT-based framework can enhance data-driven public health decision-making. This innovation aligns with Indonesia’s national stunting reduction strategy and supports Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3 Good Health and Well-being, contributing to the digital transformation of early childhood health monitoring.

Early detection of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a crucial challenge in child development interventions because conventional screening methods are often subjective and prone to assessor bias. This study proposes an objective solution in the form of a deep learning approach for automatic ASD classification using facial landmark representations that focus exclusively on the eye and forehead areas. The selection of these areas is based on the eye avoidance hypothesis, which states that these regions contain very rich diagnostic information and behavioral biomarkers related to the ASD phenotype. The pre-processing stage involves isolating the eye and forehead areas using Dlib 68-landmark detection to eliminate background visual noise, followed by detailed topological visualization using MediaPipe Face Mesh with 478 landmark points as the model input. The Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture used is the VGG19 model modified with transfer learning techniques and the addition of Dropout layers to improve efficiency and prevent overfitting. The model was trained on a primary dataset of 1,238 images collected under controlled conditions from children in Banda Aceh. The test results showed very promising performance with an overall accuracy of 94.35%. Specifically, the model achieved a recall (sensitivity) of 95.24%, a precision of 93.75%, and an AUC score of 0.9831. This high sensitivity is crucial in a medical context to minimize the risk of misdetection of positive cases. These results demonstrate that landmark visualization in the eye and forehead areas with the VGG19 model is a highly effective, accurate, and practical method for serving as an economical early screening tool for ASD.
