LITERATUR REVIEW EFEKTIFITAS DAUN SRIKAYA (Annona squamosa) DALAM MENGHAMBAT PERTUMBUHAN BAKTERI Staphyloccocus aureus

Srikaya (Anonna Squamosa) berpotensi sebagai sumber senyawa antimikroba. Berdasarkan penelitian terdahulu, diketahui Srikaya memiliki beberapa manfaat, salah satunya sebagai antimikroba. Zat antibakteri yang terkandung dalam srikaya yaitu flavonoid, terpenoid dan alkaloid. Flavonoid merupakan senyawa yang mampu menghambat dan membunuh bakteri dimana salah satu keturunanya fenol bersifat asam sehingga disebut asam karbolat yang mampu mendenaturasi protein dan merusak dinding sel bakteri. Senyawa alkaloid merupakan komponen yang terdapat pada alam yang bersifat basa yang bereaksi dengan asam amino dimana reaksi tersebut menyebabkan sel bakteri lisis. Terpenoid merupakan komponen yang mempunyai bau yang dapat di isolasi melalui proses penyulingan, yang disebut minyak atsiri yang dapat digunakan sebagai anti jamur, antibakteri dan gangguan kesehatan lainnya. Berdasarkan penelitian yang telah di lakukan, ekstrak daun srikaya dapat menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri Staphylococcus aureus. Tujuan dari literature review ini adalah untuk mengetahui efektivitas ekstrak daun srikaya sebagai antimikroba. Metode yang digunakan dalam artikel ini adalah penelusuran artikel melalui database Google Scholar, dengan menggunakan kata kunci “Efektifitas daun srikaya (Anonna squamosa) dalam menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri Staphylococcus aureus” lalu artikel dipilih dengan meninjau judul dan abstrak artikel, melibatkan 5 pustaka nasional. Hasil dari berbagai penelusuran yang dicantumkan dalam artikel ini untuk menunjukkan adanya potensi daun srikaya sebagai antibakteri. Pemilihan pelarut yang tepat dalam proses ekstraksi daun srikaya sangat penting untuk mendapatkan aktivitas antimikroba yang optimal yang berdampak pada zona hambat yang terbentuk

A review of the current use of commercial wearable technology and smartphone apps with application in monitoring individuals following total hip replacement surgery

The advent of commercially available wearable activity monitors and smartphone apps allows objective digital monitoring of daily activities of patients before and after THR surgery. A wide variety of wearable activity monitors and smartphone apps are being marketed to assist with enhancing physical activity following surgery. A systematic review of commercial wearable tech- nology and smartphone apps was undertaken to assess the evidence supporting their efficacy in assisting rehabilitation and patient monitoring following THR. A search was conducted using the electronic databases including Medline, CINAHL, Cochrane, PsycARTICLES and PubMed of studies from January 2000 to January 2019. Five studies met the eligibility criteria. A review of the studies found very little evidence to support long term efficacy of the technology in enhancing rehabilitation and patient monitoring post THR. Future work is required to establish which commercially available monitoring technology is most valuable to patients, which ones improve clinical outcomes post THR, and what are the best economical models for their deployment

The population of the study was 2015 /2016 second year students of SMA Swasta Muhammadiyah-8 Kisaran. The number of population of this research consisted of three parallel classes, which were selected by using cluster random sampling technique, the total were (80) students. The sample was divide into two groups; the first group is (40) students (XI IPS 1) which was the Experimental group and the second group is (40) students (XI IPS 2) which was the Control group. The experimental group was taught by using imaginative reading materials while the control group was taught without using imaginative reading materials. The instrument of the research was test. There were two kinds of test that the researcher used, they were pre-test and post-test.

The Importance and Utilization of Information Technology among External Auditors in Yemen

Utilization of information technology (IT) has a direct impact on the judgment of external auditors and ultimately impact the audit effectiveness and efficiency. This study investigates the level of IT importance, IT utilization, and the fit between them in the context of audit job in Yemen. The proposed model investigate the impact of IT knowledge, IT training and firm size on the fit between IT importance and IT utilization. The level of IT utilization among auditors is lower than their perception towards the IT importance. Seven technologies are considered as important in the specific context of audit work in Yemen, however only two technologies are rated as utilizable by the auditors. On average, System Development and Installation receives the lowest mean value for both IT utilization and importance. On the other hand, General Office Automation receives the highest mean value. Generally, responding auditors perceived their overall importance of IT as important, while their current utilization of IT is less than adequate. A questionnaire was used to gather data from 197 auditors representing Big-Four and non Big-Four firms. The results show that IT knowledge and IT training significantly contributed to the fit of IT utilization and IT importance. Additionally, results imply that information systems audit in Yemen is still at the minimum level

IT fit on auditors’ performance in Yemen

The alignment between the importance and utilisation of IT (IT fit), and the impact of IT fit on organisational performance has been an issue of concern for many researchers. Therefore, this study examined the effect of organisational, social, individual, and environmental factors on IT fit and on auditors’ performance as well as the influence of IT fit on auditors’ performance. It also examined the mediating effect of IT fit on the relationship between these independent variables and auditors’ performance. Data from 274 auditors were analyzed using the PLS-SEM. The results indicate that auditors perceived their utilisation of IT utilisation to be less than the importance of IT, hence providing important insights into the importance and the utilisation of technologies in the context of audit work in Yemen. The findings suggest that information systems audit in Yemen is still at the minimum level. Further analyses on the effect of the independent variables, namely IT knowledge, facilitating resources, IT trust, competitive pressure, management support, client’s complexity of the IT system, internalisation and cognitive style, on IT fit show them to be positive and significant. Interestingly, IT fit is found to be a mediator between these eight variables and auditors’ performance. This study also finds that management support, IT knowledge, IT trust, internalisation, IT training, client’s complexity of the IT System, cognitive style and IT fit have positive and significant effects on auditors’ performance. The three most important variables are IT knowledge, facilitating resources, and management support. The findings suggest the important role of IT fit in increasing the effect of these variables on auditors’ performance. Therefore, audit firms and professional bodies need to focus on the issue of IT fit to increase the performance of their auditors
