The profiling of short tandem repeats (STRS) fromnext-generation sequencing (NGS) data by establishing a whole genome STRS pipeline for forensic bioinformatics
Repeat region with length of one to six base pairs (bp), found in DNA sequences is known as short tandem repeats (STRs).
Currently, high-throughput next-generation sequencers have facilitated the effective polymorphic STR markers’ identification.
In this study, a new whole genome STRs pipeline has been established in order to call and profile STRs from next-generation
sequencing (NGS) data. Firstly, genome sequences of Helicobater pylori strain, CPY1124 and PeCan4 as reference genome
were retrieved from European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) database which then the quality of sequences were checked using
FastQC. The assembly of genome sequences was done by VELVET de novo assembler. Unordered contigs from VELVET’s
output was realigned using multiple genome alignment (MAUVE) to obtain ordered contigs sequence. Lastly, STRs calling
and profiling by Tandem Repeat Finder was done with the parameters of (2: match, 7: mismatch and 7: indels). These
parameters are for Smith-Waterman style local alignment using wrap-around dynamic programming. As a result, this new
pipeline enables to identify polymorphic and unique STRs which are GTTTG and AAACCC from CPY1124. This pipeline
has been compared with other available STRs profiling pipeline like pSTR Finder and Tandem Repeat Database (TRDB) for
validation purpose. The similar output producing by both tools thus indicates the reliability of this new pipeline for future
usage
Pengalaman Komunikasi Terapeutik Perawat Orang Lanjut Usia
Although some research related to the influence of therapeutic communication to patients has been carried out in Indonesia, research trying to explore the experience of the elderly nurse communication has never been done. Though the geriatric is a practitioner who has interacted daily with elderly patients thus have therapeutic communication experience that deserves to be explored. By using phenomenology, the study describe the experience of five geriatric nurse in conducting therapeutic communication activities for elderly patients in Sasana Tresna Werdha Jakarta. Data was collected through interviews. The informants of this research are interviewed about 45-90 minutes. In the interview the informant's provide their personal experience that contribute to the success of their therapeutic communication. Based on this study, we found ten important themes in therapeutic communicate with elderly patients, namely: the planned communication, to find out, observation, appreciation and humor, taboo communication, respect, caring, clarity, empathy and build rapport. The ten themes above we made to three (3) things that become the main learning and the essence in this study. 3 (three) it was planned, caring, and empathy are the answer to the research question
Sequestering atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> inorganically:a solution for Malaysia's CO<sub>2</sub> emission
Malaysia is anticipating an increase of 68.86% in CO2 emission in 2020, compared with the 2000 baseline, reaching 285.73 million tonnes. A major contributor to Malaysia's CO2 emissions is coal-fired electricity power plants, responsible for 43.4% of the overall emissions. Malaysia's forest soil offers organic sequestration of 15 tonnes of CO2 ha(-1) year(-1). Unlike organic CO2 sequestration in soil, inorganic sequestration of CO2 through mineral carbonation, once formed, is considered as a permanent sink. Inorganic CO2 sequestration in Malaysia has not been extensively studied, and the country's potential for using the technique for atmospheric CO2 removal is undefined. In addition, Malaysia produces a significant amount of solid waste annually and, of that, demolition concrete waste, basalt quarry fine, and fly and bottom ashes are calcium-rich materials suitable for inorganic CO2 sequestration. This project introduces a potential solution for sequestering atmospheric CO2 inorganically for Malaysia. If lands associated to future developments in Malaysia are designed for inorganic CO2 sequestration using demolition concrete waste, basalt quarry fine, and fly and bottom ashes, 597,465 tonnes of CO2 can be captured annually adding a potential annual economic benefit of (sic)4,700,000.</p
Simulated data of urea of haemodialysis patient using one-compartment model
End stage kidney disease (ESKD) is a disease where both kidneys are no longer functioning properly and patients require renal replacement therapy (RRT) such as haemodialysis to prolong their life. The numbers of modality for haemodialysis had increased, as the numbers of new patient of ESKD increased. In Malaysia, the numbers of new patient had increased three-fold for the past 10 years, from year 2002 to year 2012. In this paper, demographic data, clinical data and input and output of dialysis for the selected patients are presented. The post-dialysis urea concentrations for each patient with different weightfor one compartment model were simulated using MATLAB software. The simulated values of post-dialysis urea concentration were then compared with the clinical values of post-dialysis urea concentration for different weight. The simulated values of post-dialysis urea concentration underestimated the clinical value of post-dialysis urea concentration for patient with weight less than 70kg but overestimated to patient with weight greater than 70kg. The ratio of simulated values and clinical values of post-dialysis urea concentration were found to increase with the weight of patien
Correlation Between BMI and ADLs with Mental Emotional Disorder Among Elderly

Analisis Pengaruh Fenomena El Nino dan La Nina terhadap Curah Hujan Tahun 1998 - 2016 Menggunakan Indikator Oni (Oceanic Nino Index) (Studi Kasus : Provinsi Jawa Barat)
Perubahan iklim dalam rentang 10 tahun terakhir membawa Perubahan yang sangat drastis di permukaan bumi. Beberapa pengaruh iklim ini salah satunya anomali suhu udara yang mencolok seperti fenomena El Nino dan La Nina atau yang lebih dikenal dengan fenomena ENSO (El Nino Southern Oscillation). Fenomena ENSO merupakan suatu kondisi permukaan laut di wilayah Samudera Pasifik mengalami kenaikan atau penurunan suhu permukaan laut sehingga menyebabkan adanya pergeseran musim di wilayah Indonesia. Pergeseran musim yang terjadi karena fenomena ENSO juga berpengaruh besar terhadap produksi pangan dan komoditas pertanian yang lain.Pada penelitian ini, metode pengolahan data penelitian menggunakan bahasa pemograman untuk mengolah data SST dan data curah hujan dari tahun 1998 sampai tahun 2016. Data yang digunakan berupa data suhu permukaan laut yang berasal dari satelit NOAA yaitu SST Reynolds (Sea Surface Temperature) serta data curah hujan harian yang berasal dari satelit TRMM. Pembuatan indeks ONI pada penelitian ini menggunakan data SST bulanan yang telah dikonversikan kemudian dikelompokkan kedalam masing-masing kelas. Masing-masing kelas mempunyai nilai kurang dari -0,5 yaitu keadaan La Nina, lebih dari 0,5 yaitu keadaan El Nino dan nilai diantara -0,5 sampai 0,5 yaitu keadaan normal. Pengujian data menggunakan analisis pola spasial curah hujan dan suhu permukaan laut yang dipengaruhi oleh fenomena El Nino dan La Nina.Hasil penelitian berupa peta sebaran SST dan curah hujan secara musiman untuk mengetahui pengaruh dari fenomena El Nino dan La Nina di wilayah Jawa Barat. Fenomena El Nino dan La Nina di Laut Jawa terjadi pada bulan Agustus sampai bulan Februari. Pada saat El Nino, nilai suhu permukaan laut (SST) 27áµ’C -28áµ’C dengan rata-rata 27,71áµ’C sedangkan untuk intensitas curah hujannya yaitu 1,0mm/hr-2,0mm/hr dengan rata-rata 1,63mm/hr. Pada saat La Nina, nilai suhu permukaan laut (SST) 29áµ’C-30áµ’C dengan rata-rata 29,06áµ’C sedangkan intensitas curah hujannya yaitu 9,0mm/hr-10mm/hr dengan rata-rata 9,74mm/hr. Korelasi antara curah hujan dan SST sebesar 0,413 yang menyatakan hubungan yang cukup kuat antar parameter. Sehingga dapat disimpulkan, kenaikan SST saat La Nina mempengaruhi kenaikan intensitas curah hujan sedangkan untuk penurunan SST saat El Nino mempengaruhi penurunan intensitas curah hujan
