GAMBARAN PENGETAHUAN DAN TINDAKAN MASYARAKAT TENTANG PENGENDALIAN VEKTOR DEMAM BERDARAH DENGUE DI DESA TOUURE KABUPATEN MINAHASA TAHUN 2020
Demam Berdarah Dengue (DBD) adalah salah satu penyakit menular yang dapat dan sering menimbulkan wabah yang tidak jarang menyebabkan kematian. Berdasarkan data kasus DBD di tahun 2017 kasus DBD yang ada di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Tompaso berjumlah 9 kasus, pada tahun 2018 terdapat 8 kasus DBD di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Tompaso, sedangkan di tahun 2019 sebanyak 36 kasus yang berada di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Tompaso dan 18 kasus (50% dari total kasus) berasal dari Desa Touure Kecamatan Tompaso Kabupaten Minahasa. Masih tingginya angka kesakitan dan kematian DBD salah satu faktornya adalah kurangnya pengetahuan masyarakat tentand DBD dan tindakan masyarakat yang kurang baik dalam pengendalian vektor DBD berpotensi menjadi factor risiko penularan penyakit DBD. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk mengetahui gambaran pengetahuan dan tindakan masyarakat tentang pengendalian vektor DBD di desa Touure kecamatan Tompaso tahun 2020. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan yaitu penelitian survei deskriptif. Sampel penelitian adalah masyarakat desa Touure kecamatan Tompaso sebanyak 70 masyarakat. Analisis data dilakukan secara deskriptif berdasarkan distribusi frekwensi. Instrumen yang digunakan dalam penelitian berupa kuesioner selain itu, penelitian ini menggunakan alat tulis menulis, komputer/ laptop dan kamera. Data yang diperoleh ditampilkan menggunakan tabel. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pengetahuan responden paling banyak terdistribusi pada kategori tidak baik (78,6%), menunjukkan bahwa tindakan responden paling banyak terdistribusi pada kategori tidak baik (70%).

Based on data on dengue cases in 2017 there were 9 cases of dengue fever in the Tompaso Puskesmas work area, in 2018 there were 8 cases of dengue in the Tompaso Puskesmas work area, while in 2019 there were 36 cases in the Tompaso Puskesmas work area and 18 cases (50% of the total cases) came from Touure Village, Tompaso District, Minahasa Regency. The high rate of DHF morbidity and mortality is one of the factors is the lack of public knowledge about DHF and poor community action in controlling the DHF vector which is a risk factor for DHF transmission. The research objective was to describe the knowledge and actions of the community about dengue fever in the village of Touure, Tompaso District in 2020. The type of research used was descriptive survey research. The research sample was 70 people in Touure village, Tompaso district. Data analysis was carried out descriptively based on frequency distribution. The instrument used in the research was a questionnaire in addition to that, research using written stationery, computers / laptops and cameras. Data that can be used using tables. The results showed that the respondents' knowledge was mostly distributed in the bad category (78.6%), indicating that the respondent's actions were mostly distributed in the bad category (70%).

Objective. To implement a prescribing-error reporting system in primary care offices and analyze the reports. Design. Descriptive analysis of a voluntary prescribing-error-reporting system Setting. Seven primary care offices in Vermont, USA. Participants. One hundred and three prescribers, managers, nurses and office staff. Intervention. Nurses and office staff were asked to report all communications with community pharmacists regarding prescription problems
Temperature dependence of surface reconstructions of Au on Pd(110)
Surface reconstructions of Au film on Pd(110) substrate are studied using a
local Einstein approximation to quasiharmonic theory with the Sutton-Chen
interatomic potential. Temperature dependent surface free energies for
different coverages and surface structures are calculated. Experimentally
observed transformations from to and
structures can be explained in the framework of this model. Also conditions for
Stranski-Krastanov growth mode are found to comply with experiments. The domain
of validity of the model neglecting mixing entropy is analyzed.Comment: 7 pages, REVTeX two-column format, 3 postscript figures available on

Hydrogen atom in a spherical well: linear approximation
We discuss the boundary effects on a quantum system by examining the problem
of a hydrogen atom in a spherical well. By using an approximation method which
is linear in energy we calculate the boundary corrections to the ground-state
energy and wave function. We obtain the asymptotic dependence of the
ground-state energy on the radius of the well.Comment: Revised version to appear in European Journal of Physic
Consistent Anisotropic Repulsions for Simple Molecules
We extract atom-atom potentials from the effective spherical potentials that
suc cessfully model Hugoniot experiments on molecular fluids, e.g., and
. In the case of the resulting potentials compare very well with the
atom-atom potentials used in studies of solid-state propertie s, while for
they are considerably softer at short distances. Ground state (T=0K) and
room temperatu re calculations performed with the new potential resolve
the previous discrepancy between experimental and theoretical results.Comment: RevTeX, 5 figure
The Effect of Lattice Vibrations on Substitutional Alloy Thermodynamics
A longstanding limitation of first-principles calculations of substitutional
alloy phase diagrams is the difficulty to account for lattice vibrations. A
survey of the theoretical and experimental literature seeking to quantify the
impact of lattice vibrations on phase stability indicates that this effect can
be substantial. Typical vibrational entropy differences between phases are of
the order of 0.1 to 0.2 k_B/atom, which is comparable to the typical values of
configurational entropy differences in binary alloys (at most 0.693 k_B/atom).
This paper describes the basic formalism underlying ab initio phase diagram
calculations, along with the generalization required to account for lattice
vibrations. We overview the various techniques allowing the theoretical
calculation and the experimental determination of phonon dispersion curves and
related thermodynamic quantities, such as vibrational entropy or free energy. A
clear picture of the origin of vibrational entropy differences between phases
in an alloy system is presented that goes beyond the traditional bond counting
and volume change arguments. Vibrational entropy change can be attributed to
the changes in chemical bond stiffness associated with the changes in bond
length that take place during a phase transformation. This so-called ``bond
stiffness vs. bond length'' interpretation both summarizes the key phenomenon
driving vibrational entropy changes and provides a practical tool to model
them.Comment: Submitted to Reviews of Modern Physics 44 pages, 6 figure
Patterned nanostructure in AgCo/Pt/MgO(001) thin film
The formation of patterned nanostructure in AgCo/Pt/MgO(001) thin film is
simulated by a technique of combining molecular dynamics and phase-field
theory. The dislocation (strain) network existing in Pt/MgO is used as a
template whose pattern is transferred to AgCo phase in spinodal decomposition,
resulting in regular arrays of Co islands that are attracted by the
dislocations. The influence of various factors, such as component concentration
and film thickness, is studied. It is found that the spinodal decomposition of
AgCo in this system is mainly characterized by a competition between a
surface-directed layer structure and the strain-induced patterned structure,
where the patterned Ag-Co structure only dominates in a small range near the
interface (less than 10 atomic layers). However, if the interlayer diffusion
can be minimized by controlling film growth conditions, it is shown that the
patterned structure can be formed throughout the entire film.Comment: 8 pages, 12 figure
