Cultural results have developed in the era of globalisation and culture in Ubud Castle—the introduction of the Puri Family to Europeans in 1927. Further development in 1930, the Ubud area began to be introduced by Walter Spies through his paintings so that Ubud was known to foreign countries, and also packaged cultural products as part of tourist attraction. Furthermore, this paper focuses on cultural dynamics that contain customs and traditions by asking two questions: First, How are the cultural dynamics of Ubud aristocratic families in the era of globalisation? The second tries to trace the forms of cultural dynamics and their implications. Both questions above are answered by elaborating the concepts of dynamics, nobility, tourism and globalisation. The concept is wrapped through theory. Two theories are used in this paper, namely the theory of dynamics and psychological theory, with the methodology of the history of mentality. The results of this paper show an interesting phenomenon: the cultural dynamics experienced by the Ubud nobility cannot be separated from changes in the government system from the kingdom in the form of government. Like The entry of foreign culture with the introduction of a painter from France, Walter Spies and the entry of tourism, there was a cultural dynamic in the life of the noble family of Ubud Royal Palace.

| Arm Muscle Power, Agility, and Chets Pass Ability in Basketball: Is there a Connection? | Author : M. Taqwal Jumareng, Yustinus Sukarmin | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Basketball is one of the most popular sports in the world. A basketball player needs to have cardiovascular power to run up and down the court from time to time during four-quarters of a game, but players must also be able to perform explosive bursts of speed, explosive jumps, and explosive moves for agility, over time. Arm muscle power is one of the things needed by basketball players to be able to pass well, because basketball players rely on attributes related to strength to perform basic techniques. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between arm muscle power and agility to basketball chest pass ability. The method used in this study was correlational, the sample in this study was 33 male students Haluoleo University Physical Education study program. Instruments used to measure arm muscle power with two-hand medicine ball put, instruments to measure agility with shutlle run tests, and chest pass ability test instruments using chest pass ability tests. The data analysis technique used in this study used product moment correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis using SPSS 26. The results of this study are known to have a positive relationship between arm muscle power and chest pass ability in students of 0.414 with a significance value of 0.016. As for the agility variable, it has no relationship with chest pass ability of 0.054 with a significance value of 0.766. The relationship of Arm Muscle Power and Agility to Chest Pass Ability has a correlation value of 0.417 with a significance value of 0.057. This means that there is a relationship between Arm Muscle Power and Agility to Chest Pass Ability, but it is not significant. The two independent variables together affect the dependent variable by 17.4%. The conclusion of this study is that it can be concluded that there is a positive and significant relationship between arm muscle power and students chest pass ability. The success of doing a chest pass is to use the strength of the arm muscles so that the ball moves. This means that the better the strength of the players arm muscles, the faster the ball will move. The strength needed to perform this chest pass movement is obtained from the strength of the muscles in the arm. If done well and systematically, it will affect the ability of chest passes in basketball. While there is no relationship between agility and chest pass ability, speed remains an important component of basketball. Based on this, a good exercise program is needed to increase arm muscle power so that chest pass ability can increase, besides that it is also necessary to include an agility training program to support all aspects of the basketball game.

| Simultaneous Equation: The Case of Inflation & Rupiah Exchange Rate in Indonesia 2001-2022 | Author : Rheta Da Lhutfa Salam, Prayitno Basuki | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :This study aims to determine the relationship between inflation and the rupiah exchange rate in Indonesia in 2001-2022, using simultaneous equations through a two-stage least square (2SLS) approach. The method used in this study is simultaneous equation regression, in which the variables are interconnected. The data used in this study is Indonesian state data for 2001-2022, including inflation, exchange rates, interest rates, gross domestic product, and exports obtained from the Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS) Indonesia website. The results of the study based on the two-stage least square (2SLS), the simultaneous equation of inflation (INF), showed that the variable interest rate (R) and gross domestic product (GDP) had a significant effect on inflation (INF). In contrast, the exchange rate variable (ER) did not significantly affect inflation (INF). Simultaneously, the exchange rate (ER), interest rate (R), and gross domestic product (GDP) affected inflation (INF) because F (prob) was smaller from alpha = 5%. Then, in the exchange rate equation (ER), inflation variables (INF), money supply (M2) and exports (X) have a significant effect on the exchange rate. Simultaneously, Inflation (INF), money supply (M2), and exports (X) affect the exchange rate (ER) because F (prob) is smaller than alpha = 5%.

| Meritocracy Disguised as Equity: The Relationship between Teacher Professional Organizations and Teacher Ideology | Author : Hope Kitts | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :The institution of public schooling in the United States exists in the popular imagination as a primary means of achieving social mobility. It is believed that schools provide students with unbiased opportunities to earn credentials that translate into real, economic benefits. This myth of equality of opportunity in the contexts of schooling, while idyllic, does more harm than good when it comes to addressing historical inequities and serving as a means for the realization of social justice. Through a window into a larger qualitative study with practicing secondary school teachers at a large, district high school in the southwest United States, I show how discourses of meritocracy at a micro level are reflected in the language of influential teacher professional organizations. I call on these organizations to examine how their use of language promotes meritocratic myths that homogenize diverse student populations and eclipse historical, Generational inequities that persist to this day. |
| Framing Analysis of the Suspected Corruption Case of Agriculture Minister Syahrul Yasin Limpo | Author : Tasya Lee Maharani, Nawiroh Vera | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Corruption is one of the deep-rooted problems in this country. One of the corruption cases that caught the publics attention and also received media attention was the corruption case of Minister of Agriculture Syahrul Yasin Limpo or commonly known as SYL. SYLs corruption case was widely reported in various mass media, one of which was Detik.com. News is the result of media construction. The content of each news is determined by several factors such as media ideology, ownership factors, and individual factors from the news journalist. One method of analysis to see how the media constructs a news narrative can use news framing analysis. This research is descriptive qualitative research with a constructivist paradigm perspective. This study aims to analyze how Detik.com framed the news of SYLs suspected corruption case. The news used are 3 news articles that were posted at the time of SYLs alleged arrest (October 12-13, 2023). The framing analysis used is Robert N. Entmans framing model which has 4 main elements: 1. Problem identification, what the problem is framed as; 2. Diagnoses causes, causal logic related to the problem; 3. Make moral judgment, what moral values are highlighted by the media; and 4. Solution, what solutions are highlighted in the news frame. The results showed that Detik.com reported on SYLs corruption case which showed the firm action taken by the KPK for corruption cases in the Ministry of Agriculture. The total amount of corruption money of SYL and 2 other perpetrators KS and MH was reported 1 day after the day of being arrested and questioned.

| Effect of Training Using Pullbuoy on Breaststroke Swimming Speed in Club RD Athletes | Author : Ridho Yariansyah, Guntur, Septian Raibowo, Yahya Eko Nopiyanto, Ali Munir | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Speed in swimming is very important because it affects the results of matches and the athletes efficiency. Optimal speed results in shorter journey times, providing a competitive advantage. This study aims to determine the effect of the pull buoy training method on the breaststroke swimming speed of RD Rejang Lebong club athletes. This type of research is experimental research using a one group pre-test and post-test research design. The population in this study was the RD Rejang Lebong club, totaling 90 athletes and the sampling technique used purposive sampling with certain considerations totaling 30 athletes. The tool used to measure breaststroke swimming speed is the 50 meters swimming test. Data analysis used a paired t-test. The research results obtained t = 0.0002 t table = 1.699 at a significance level = 0.05 and the correlation test results were 49.10%. It can be concluded that there is no significant influence of the training method using a pull buoy on the 50 meters breaststroke swimming speed of RD Rejang Lebong club athletes. This is of concern to researchers and the study conducted regarding the research results is that there are several factors that make the research unsuccessful or the independent variables do not have a significant effect on attachment variables such as the level of physical readiness of athletes in carrying out training, increasing the number of training from the frequency of training per week before. and quite serious training from athletes even though in the end the research results showed insignificant results for this training. |
| Performance Evaluation of Induction Motor Behaviour on Conventional and PV System Power Sources | Author : Ebenezer Asuquo Williams, Ekom Enefiok Okpo, Imo Edwin Nkan | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :The present study explores the integration of photovoltaic (PV) systems for enhancement of power system quality and reliability, particularly when PV system is deployed to power inductive loads which have wide applications in commercial and industrial settings. A mixed approach is deployed using MATLAB/Simulink for the modelling and simulation process. The study investigates the impact of inductive loads on PV system, comparing its performance with a conventional power source of same power willing capacity. The PV system was modelled by connecting PV arrays in series and parallel combinations. The output of the PV arrays was fed into a three phase PWM inverter, the harmonics present at the inverter output were eliminated using properly sized Inductor- capacitor (L-C) filter circuit. Also, a three-phase conventional source of same output capacity was modelled. Comparative analysis of the impacts inductive loads has on both sources were carried out and this was accomplished by integrating three-phase asynchronous motor rated at 15kW(20HP). The induction motors were independently powered by two distinct sources and further subjected to intermittent loading conditions. The major parameters investigated includes the rotor speed, rotor current, and electromagnetic torque of the asynchronous motor. The outcome of the study showed that the conventional source outperforms the PV system. These necessitates the studies on adoption of advance strategies on how the negative impacts and challenges encountered in the course of integrating PV system to power inductive loads will be address.

| Childhood Obesity and the Risk of Hypertension in the Caribbean Region: A Narrative Review | Author : Feimatta Immah Sowa, Md, Mph, Pg. Dip. | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Childhood obesity is a rising epidemic affecting both developed and developing countries worldwide. In the Caribbean, estimates of obesity in children are noted to be above the predicted global values, and evidence suggests that the rise in obesity levels is due to environmental influences in dietary practices and physical inactivity.
Methods: This review aims to determine the effects of childhood obesity and the associated risks of developing hypertension in the Caribbean population. Research articles were identified using computer-based search engines such as Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect, World Health Organization (WHO), and Caribbean Public Health Agency (CARPHA) databases. Researched articles with various study designs were then thoroughly analyzed to extract detailed information about obesity in childhood and the risks for hypertension in later years.
Results: Rapid weight gain in infancy and high (body mass index) BMI levels in childhood are associated with higher blood pressure values and increased cardiovascular risk. Additionally, direct baseline elevation of blood pressure (B.P.) measurements, noted in obese/overweight children compared to their nonobese counterparts, confirm the hypothesis that childhood obesity is positively associated with hypertension.
Conclusion: This review article provides detailed facts about childhood obesity, the risk for hypertension, and improvement recommendations and calls attention to the health implications of obesity-related hypertension in children if left untreated.

| Review on Effects of Organophosphate Pesticides in Human Health and Way to Mitigates its Harmful Impacts | Author : Mr. Subrata Kumar Payra, Ms. Deepa Goswami, Mrs. Sanchita Pan, Mr. Atanu Bera,Ms. Supriya Jana, Mr. Jagmohan Sing, Mr. Atanu Bhowmik | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Due to increasing the human population day by day, for the control of the human population, needs to increase the agricultural productivity, for agricultural production is increasing we use pesticide. Pesticides not only kill the target pest species also affect non-target organisms. Pesticide pollution has become a significant problem all over the world. This is mainly due to the abuse and overuse of pesticides which remain in the soil for several years and leach into water bodies. Pesticides are chemical (synthetic or semi-synthetic) agents that control and destroy pest population. Organophosphate pesticides are major bulk that includes malathion, parathion, diazinon, fenthion, chlordecone, Imidacloprid, dichlorvos, chlorpyrifos, ethion, nerve gases (soman, sarin, tabun, VX), ophthalmic agents (echothiophate, isoflurophate), and antihelmintics (trichlorfon). Herbicides (tribufos or DEF, merphos) are tricresyl phosphate etc. Though various pesticides were banned due to its harmful impacts on human health and environment, but still some has been used in paddy fields, greenhouse culture, horticulture and even hydroponics. They persistent in nature (bio-accumulation and bio-magnification by the food chain, especially through pieces) and cause acute or chronic toxicity. They contain very noxious components that harm our neuronal system by cholinergic effects. Pesticide also has an unfavorable effect on aquatic organisms such as ataxia causing late maturation in fish. Various physical and chemical methods are used for the reduction the toxicity of pesticides, physically and chemically pesticide reduction process is costly and hazardous. One good strategy is applied for the remediation of pesticides is bioremediation, i.e- use of various modified strain of agricultural microbes especially bacteria.

| The Effect of Secretome Hypoxia Mesenchymal Stem Cells on PDGF and IL-1b Gene Expression (Experimental Study on Wistar Rats Hyperglycemic Wound Models) | Author : Nensi Rianti, Agung Putra, Prasetyowati Subchan | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Hyperglycemic wounds take longer to heal, and high glucose results in an increase in inflammatory cells, a decrease in the angiogenesis process, and the production of growth factors. Antibiotic treatment, surgery, or debridement can increase the risk of amputation. This study aimed to determine the effect of administering gel secretome hypoxia mesenchymal stem cells (SH-MSCs) on the expression of PDGF and IL-1b in Wistar rats with a hyperglycemic wound model. In vivo laboratory experimental research with a Post Test Only Control Group Design. The samples consisted of 30 Wistar rats, divided into 5 groups, namely healthy rats (P1), negative control (P2), positive control with gentamicin (P3), gel secretome dose of 20 µL/rat (P4), and gel secretome dose of 40 µL/rat (P5). MSC secretome hypoxia gel treatment for 10 days, then skin tissue samples were examined using the RTq-PCR method to analyze PDGF and IL-1b gene expression. Analysis of PDGF gene expression showed significant differences between treatment groups using the Kruskal-Wallis test with a result of 0.018 (p<0.05), but there were no significant differences between groups using the Mann-Whitney test (p<0.05). Analysis of IL-1b gene expression showed significant differences between treatment groups using the Kruskal Wallis test with a result of 0.001 (p<0.05), various doses of secretome gel affected reducing IL-1b gene expression using the Mann Whitney test with a result of 0.004 (p<0, 05). The most significant decrease was at a secretome dose of 40 µL/mouse. MSC secretome hypoxia gel at a dose of 40 µL/rat effectively reduces IL-1b gene expression in Wistar rats with a hyperglycemic wound model. However, various doses of MSC secretome hypoxia gel do not significantly increase PDGF gene expression.

| The Knife-Plane Configuration Model of CCP equipment from plasma corona discharge case | Author : Asep Yoyo Wardaya, Zaenul Muhlisin, Isnain Gunadi, Pandji Triadyaksa | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :This research discusses the concept of analytical calculations of current-voltage (I-V) characteristics in the case of corona discharges using an asymmetric electrode model (with a DC source), which is often called capacitively coupled plasma (CCP) equipment. This CCP equipment, which is almost similar in shape to capacitor equipment in conventional electrical equipment, has the characteristic of having an active electrode in an upright position above the position of a passive electrode (in a lying position) in the air. Another characteristic is that the lowest end of the active electrode has a sharp surface so that a large corona current flows out of the sharp surface towards the passive electrode. The (I-V) characteristic calculation method can be calculated using a geometric concept (based on the sharp surface at the tip of the active electrode) using a modified capacitance concept. For the case of an asymmetric model with an arrangement of active and passive electrodes perpendicular to each other, the capacitance calculation can use the knife-plane electrode configuration model.

| The Influence of Salak Skin Ethanol Extract on the Lipid Profile, Il-6 and MDA Serum (Experimental Study on Male Rats of Wistar Strains Induced by High-Fat Diet) | Author : Hanny Fuzi Lestari, Setyo Trisnadi, Danis Pertiwi, Wahyudi | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Dyslipidemia is characterized by an increase in total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL and a decrease in HDL. One of the consequences of endothelial dysfunction as a precursor to cardiovascular disease is induced by oxidative stress and inflammation, so this condition must be controlled. Dyslipidemia causes an increase in pro-inflammatory cytokines which play a role in oxidative stress and inflammatory processes. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of administering snake fruit ethanol extract on serum lipid profile, IL-6 and MDA levels in Wistar rats induced by a high-fat diet. The type of research is experimental with a Post Test Only Control Group Design research design. The research subjects used 36 Wistar rats, divided into 6 treatment groups, namely healthy control group (KS), negative control (K-), positive control with simvastatin (K+), 60 mg dose EEKS group (P1), 120 mg dose EEKS group (P2), and EEKS group dose 240 mg (P3). Examination on day 36 used blood serum ELISA method to analyze levels of lipid profile, IL-6 and MDA. There was a significant difference using the t test (p0.05) in the average decrease in total cholesterol, LDL, triglyceride levels and increase in HDL levels. The results of IL-6 levels showed significant differences between groups using the one way anova test (p0.05), the 120 mg dose had the lowest results but was not significantly different when compared to the K+ group using the post hoc LSD test (p0, 05), while the results of MDA levels were significantly different using the Kruskal Wallis test (p0.05), showing that the 240 mg dose had the same results as the simvastatin group using the Mann- Whitney test (p0.05). Snake bark ethanol extract (EEKS) at a dose of 240 mg has the same effect as simvastatin by reducing total cholesterol, LDL, triglyceride levels and increasing HDL.

| The Effect of Topical Gel Secretome Hypoxic Mesenchymal Stem Cells (SH-MSCs) on IL-6 and TGF- ß Gene Expression (Experimental Study in Male Wistar Alopecia-Like Rat Models Induced by Fluconazole) | Author : Meri Aldila Rahmanita, Agung Putra, Deddy Hermansyah | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Alopecia induced by the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) stimulates changes in the immune and neuroendocrine systems. Hair follicles have dermal papillary cells (DPCs) that bind to corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) receptors. Research shows that transforming growth factor (TGF-ß) is one of the expressions that can be an indication of the influence of CRF. The effect of CRF itself is to cause hair loss. The purpose of this study was to determine the Secretome of Hypoxia Mesenchymal Stem Cells (SH-MSCs) against IL-6 expression and TGF-ß expression. This study used experimentally in vivo with the Post Test Only Control Group Design method. The subjects of this study were male rats of Wistar strain which were divided into 4 treatments consisting of 1 healthy group, 1 negative control group, 1 treatment group with SH-MSCs dose 10% in a dose of 200 mg/rat/day gel, and 1 more treatment group with SH-MSCs dose 20% in a dose of 200 mg/rat/day. On the 21st day, IL-6 expression and TGF-ß expression were examined. Data were analyzed using the One-Way ANOVA Test and the Kruskall-Wallis Test to determine the effect of each group. The One-Way ANOVA test showed the results of IL-6 expression (p = 0.000) showed a significant difference (p < 0.05) and the Kruskall-Wallis test of TGF-ß expression (p = 0.000) with SH-MSCs dose 200 was a significant difference (p < 0.05). The administration of 10% and 20% doses of SH-MSCs in 200 mg gel may decrease IL-6 expression. Dosed SH-MSCs 20%increased TGF-ß expression in alopecia-like rats. The development of the use of SH-MSCs is expected to be an alternative to alopecia therapy that is more beneficial and safe for the body.

| Conflict Resolution between Russia and Ukraine Based on an International Law Perspective | Author : Awang Bayu Aji, Dr. Joko Setiyono, S.H., M.Hum | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :The conflict between Ukraine and Russia is not something new. The Russian invasion of Ukraine, which began on February 24, 2022, is one of the significant upheavals in the global order since World War II. The roots of the conflict between Ukraine and Russia can be traced back to Ukraine gaining independence in 1991 after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Since then, Ukraine has become one of Russias most vital satellite states, influenced by Russian politicians, oligarchs, and businesses. The concentration of forces and military drills eventually led to the invasion conducted by Russia into the territory of Ukraine on February 24, 2022. This invasion then intensified, encouraging various efforts to resolve the conflict. This analysis aims to examine the resolution of the dispute between Russia and Ukraine from the perspective of International Law. The research employed a normative legal research approach. Several attempts to resolve the Ukraine-Russia conflict have been made, including through negotiations, efforts by Turkey, interventions by the United Nations Security Council, and mediations conducted by four countries, namely Turkey, Israel, China, and Indonesia. However, these efforts did not yield any results. Currently, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) is urgently trying to persuade Russia to cease its invasion of Ukraine, but Russia has declined to attend the hearings.

This study is qualitative research with a description approach. The study was conducted in North Jayapura Public Health Center from March to May 2023 involving five informants: one head of the public health center as a key informant, one chief of the nutrition and child health services and two staff of the health and child nutrition services as the primary informants, and one patients family. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to obtain the required primary data. Stunting prevalence reports in North Jayapura Public Health Center in 2022 are used as secondary data. The interviews showed a wide range of roles from various stakeholders in conducting stunting prevention programs, including midwives, nutritionists, the head of the Public Health Center, cadres, community figures, and health promotion. The funds obtained from the Health Operational Assistance (BOK) proved sufficient to implement a stunting prevention program. Facilities and infrastructure in North Jayapura Public Health Center had several adequate facilities such as complete room content based on the needs in implementing the program. The planning process (P1) of the stunting prevention program was carried out by involving screening of pregnant mothers, cooperation with Public Health Center and nursing practitioners, as well as data collection and data analysis, and then planning the activities of the PMT Program. The movement and implementation of the program (P2) was done by monitoring pregnant women at stunting risk and news. The program leaders and the head of the Public Health Center played an important role in the supervision and control of the program. Monitoring, Control, and Performance Assessment (P3) was carried out through supplementary feeding (PMT) and body height and weight monitoring. Coverage availability and monthly reports became important indicators in performance assessment. There were constraints in the effectiveness and efficiency of the program, especially about the availability of time and the economy of the people. Educating patients took a long time, so not all patients get optimal education. The results obtained with the presence of the Stunting Prevention Program in North Jayapura Public Health Center could show how many babies are undernourished in the Region of North Jayapura Public Health Center by always providing education and counseling to the mother to understand the importance of the health of the child. The results of the program giving PMT on the child stunting helped to improve the childs nutrition to be better. In conclusion, the management of stunting prevention programs in North Jayapura Public Health Center requires improvements in resource management, more integrated surveillance, and improved facilities and facilities. Collaboration between the various stakeholders is also the key to the success of the program. With an in-depth understanding of the management of stunting prevention programs, it is expected that the program can be continuously improved to have a positive impact on the health of 3-5-year-olds in the Region.

| Correlation between Macronutrient Intakes (Carbohydrate, Protein, Lipid) and Bone Mineral Density in the Elderly | Author : Inria Astari Zahra, Etisa Adi Murbawani, Lusiana Batubara | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Osteoporosis is a systemic disease that occurs in bone and is characterized by reduced bone mass and simultaneous damage to bone structure. Osteoporosis commonly occurs in the elderly because of the hormonal mechanism that plays a huge role in bone density. Micronutrients such as calcium and vitamin D have long been recognized as important in maintaining bone structure. Meanwhile, the effect of macronutrient intake on bone density remains unclear. Only a few studies have analyzed the correlation between macronutrient intakes and bone mineral density (BMD) in the elderly. Moreover, the primary data regarding the correlation has not been found in Indonesia. This study analyzed the correlation between macronutrient intakes (carbohydrate, protein, and lipid) and BMD in the elderly. This research is an observational analytical study with a cross-sectional design. Thirty-eight elderly women who met the inclusion criteria underwent an interview with 3 x 24-hour food recall, SQ-FFQ, and examination of bone density using the DXA method. Bivariate analysis using Pearson and Spearman tests was then carried out. Carbohydrate intakes and BMD have a significant negative correlation (p= 0.008), while the correlations of both lipid and protein intake with BMD are insignificant (p> 0.05). There is a significant correlation between carbohydrate intake and BMD in the elderly. On the other hand, there is no significant correlation between protein and lipid intake with BMD in the elderly.

| Prediction Using SVM and DT | Author : Dr T K Ganga, Dr S Selvakani, Mrs K Vasumathi | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Diabetes is recognized as a severe and persistent illness that leads to an elevation in blood sugar levels. Untreated and undetected diabetes can give rise to numerous complications. The laborious process of identification typically involves a patient visiting a diagnostic centre and consulting with a doctor. However, the advancement of machine learning approaches has addressed this critical issue. The objective of this study is to develop a model capable of predicting the likelihood of diabetes in patients with the utmost accuracy. To achieve this goal, three machine learning classification algorithms—Decision Tree, SVM, and Naive Bayes—are employed in this experiment to identify diabetes at an early stage. The experiments are conducted on the Pima Indians Diabetes Database (PIDD), sourced from the UCI machine learning repository. The performance of each algorithm is assessed using various metrics such as Precision, Accuracy, F-Measure, and Recall.

| Navigating the Data Security Landscape: Challenges and Solutions in Financial Markets amid Digitalization and Artificial Intelligence | Author : Mithilesh Gupta, Urvi Naresh Shah | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Financial markets have the risk of data mishandling or leakage of information. Regarding consumer, privacy breach and information mismanagement affects the overall trust in the system. With faster digitalization and online usage of information, a large section of economic markets require that consumers reveal their individual information constituting a part of regulatory requirements and privacy agreements. Financial systems gather information such as identity, payment passwords, shopping choices, and other similar details that can be shared online. Financial data is prone to misuse and leakage through big data pricing discrimination and over-marketing. Furthermore, the adoption of artificial intelligence/ Machine learning (AI/ML) creates new, distinct cyber risks and expands possibilities for cyber-attacks. AI/ML systems are susceptible to new threats along with the usual cyber threats posed by human error or software malfunctions. Encroachment of personal details and disruption of law by certain organizations make it difficult for individuals to assess the challenges or problems encountered within financial markets. Therefore, the lack of systematic arrangement of the financial system results in financial losses and psychological disruption presenting as mistrust of the governments accountability, impairment of the social balance, and erratic behavior. The present study aims to assess: 1) The scope of data security in financial markets; 2) the Challenges encountered by financial markets in maintaining data security, 3) the Role of Artificial intelligence in data breaches and Current methods (Technical and non-technical) utilized for data security.

| The Scientific Revolution in Europe and its Impact on Chinese Cosmology during the 16th-18th Centuries | Author : Sha Ha | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :The scientific revolution, which developed in Western Europe during the 16th-18th centuries, was one of the most significant fruits of the activity of European universities. The cultural movement of Renaissance, born in Italy a century earlier, which moved the center of attention of scholars on man, blacksmith of his destiny and on his dignity, with a marked curiosity for the laws of nature, greatly contributed to it. Another propulsive factor were the maritime expeditions across the Atlantic, the Pacific and the Indian Oceans, promoted by the kingdoms of Portugal and Spain at the end of the Reconquista between the 15th and the 16th centuries. Their vessels crossed the Equator Line, discovering new lands and new skies. Celestial Mechanics was at the center of that peaceful revolution, owing to the initiative of scholars as Nicolaus Copernicus, Galileo Galilei, Tycho Brahe, Johannes Kepler, Isaac Newton. The Jesuit missionaries, sent to China by the Roman Catholic Church with evangelizing purposes, propagated among the scholars of the imperial court the use of the astronomical telescope and the adoption of the experimental method in science. Unfortunately, the Roman Catholic Church condemned in the same years the propagation of the heliocentric theory, because it contradicted the Bible, of which the Church considered to be its exclusive interpreter. This was a hindrance to the advancement of modern Celestial Mechanics in the Far East, until the Church ceased to obstruct the heliocentric theory toward the middle of the 18th century. It took another century for that theory to be fully accepted by Chinese scholars.

This study determined the best level combination of botanical leaf extracts that has repellent and knockdown effects on major eggplant insect pest, best level combination of botanical leaf extracts that produces the highest marketable yield; best mulching materials; best level combination of botanical leaf extracts and mulching; correlation of infestation to yield; profitability of eggplant production using botanical leaf extracts and mulching materials combined; and evaluate the effects of botanical leaf extracts and mulching materials on soil chemical properties. A Bioassay test on the botanical leaf extracts was conducted prior to field experiment. Mass rearing the test insects was done to ensure uniform number of insect in eggplant per treatment. A Split- plot in Factorial Design was used in the study with three blocks. The main plot were the leaf extracts of Neem, Madre de Cacao+ Guava at 1:1:1 ratio were: P0 – No Application, P1 –250 ml leaf extract/16 li water, P2 –500 ml leaf extract /16 li water, P3 –750 ml leaf extract /16 li water, P4 – 40 ml Commercial insecticide/16 li water. The sub-plot was: M1 – Black Plastic mulch, M2 – Carbonize Rice Hulls, and M3 – Saw Dust. Results of the bioassay showed highly significant knockdown effect in the application of 500-750ml leaf extract/16 li water on fruit and shoot borer, lady spotted beetle and white flies comparable to application of commercial insecticide/16 li water. Significant repellent effects on Fruit Shoot Borer and Lady spotted beetles but no repellent effects on white flies for an application of 250ml botanical leaf extracts/16li water. Results under field condition showed that plants applied with 750ml botanical leaf extracts/16 li water is more effective than commercial insecticide/16 li water in reducing damaged leaves during the early vegetative stage of development (2nd WAT) and at reproductive stage of development (10th WAT). Highly significant difference was obtained in terms in weight of non-marketable fruit. No significant interaction was registered between botanical leaf extracts and mulching materials. Regression correlation analysis revealed that there was a direct correlation between the numbers of damaged leaves to yield. Combined application of botanical leaf extracts at 750ml/16 li water + carbonized rice hulls obtained Php 797,635.15 net for organic off-season eggplant production. Soil pH, OM, P, and K were increased with application of sawdust, carbonized rice hulls and plastic mulch.
