Penge Pakraman village is a traditional village that has the potency to become ecotourism. The emergence of new tourist attractions affects land changes to support tourism activities. This causes the number of plant species in nature to decrease. Plant conservation by utilizing local wisdom is one effort to reduce the decrease of plant species number. The application of Tri Hita Karana and Tri Mandala in Balinese daily life able to support plant conservation activity. The objective of this research was to determine the role of Tri Mandala concept in plant conservation at Pakraman Penge home garden. Data collection methods are carried out through observation plant location with inventory number and name of plants in house sample. Plant use continues with study literature. The results of an inventory of plant diversity in home gardens of Pakraman Penge village recorded 70 species of plants from 16 houses sample. The plant habitus varied from herbs, shrubs until trees. Plant species in the home gardens have functions for ceremonies (51%), medicinal (24%), ornamental (17%), food (6%), and spices (2%). However, based on the location, most plant species were found in madya mandala and the lowest were found in utama mandala. We also found plants with conservation status consist of least concerned (15 species), vulnerable (Dracaena draco), near threatened (Cycas rumphii), endangered (Coffea arabica). Therefore, the application of Tri Mandala concept on Balinese home gardens supports plant conservation and gives economic benefit in individual leve

Kajian Kebutuhan Family Centered Care dalam Perawatan Bayi Sakit Kritis di Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

Infants hospitalization in the NICU adversely affect for infants and parents. Efforts can be developed to minimize this impact is by applying family centered care (FCC). The first step is identify needs of parents. In previous study examined the differences needs of parents. This study aimed to identify the FCC needs in critically ill infants care in the NICU. The research method was mixed method design with sequential explanatory strategy. The samples in quantitative research were 45 respondents and using questionnaires NICU Family Need Inventory. Data analysis was done by mean. Qualitative research using 7 participants and using interview guidelines. Data analysis used analysis content technique. This research has been carried out in the NICU Government Hospital of Bandung Raya. The quantitative result indicated that parents with critically ill infants in the NICU need assurance most (M = 3.90), followed by information (M = 3.82), proximity (M = 3.76), support (M = 3.49), and comfort (M = 3.37). The main themes from qualitative analysis demonstrated needs of parents in assurance associated with assured the best care possible is being given to infants; information is honest, clear, and routine regarding condition, prognosis, and procedures that performed to infants; and proximity to always close and make contact with the infants. Needs of parents are focused on the wellbeing of their infants. In doing nursing care, beside improving care to the infants, the nurses should pay attention to needs of parents related the assurance their infants get the best care, open communication, and close contact with their infants. By identifying the needs of parents in the NICU, it can allow nurses to integrate the needs of parents into FCC so that parents can meet these needs, get satisfaction, and can improve the quality of life infants

Development of Nonlinear Adaptive PI Controller For Improved Pneumatic Actuator System

The wide application of pneumatic actuator in electrical and electronics sectors are undeniable hence ask for a good control environment. PID controller is always known with easy implementation and good control performance. But the limitation of the PID static gains to effectively control the complex nonlinear system is unavoidable. This suggests the enhancement of the PI controller with a nonlinear adaptive interaction algorithm (AIA). The modification is introduced by integrating a nonlinear gain function that adaptively tunes the AIA parameter, hence resulting the best tuning of the PI control gains. The uncertainties and nonlinearities inherent in the system parameters are believed to be handled by the integration, therefore improving the controller performances while maintaining the pneumatic actuator at the desired position. It was proved that improved error performance criteria’s, settling time and overshoot were resulted by the nonlinear AIA PI compared to fix AIA PI. Besides, the nonlinear AIA PI has successfully reduced the overshoot to 5.35% and 6.70% compared to optimal AIA PI and optimal PI controller, respectively. To conclude, the development of the proposed controller is demonstrated to function well and offers an alternative tuning strategy in other electronical and electronic engineering applications

Effects of leptin on sperm count and morphology in Sprague‐Dawley rats and their reversibility following a 6‐week recovery period

Altered epididymal sperm count and morphology following leptin treatment has been reported recently. This study examined the effects of 42 days of leptin treatment on sperm count and morphology and their reversibility during a subsequent 56‐day recovery period. Twelve‐week‐old male Sprague‐Dawley rats were randomised into four leptin and four saline‐treated control groups (n = 6). Intraperitoneal injections of leptin were given daily (60 μg Kg−1 body weight) for 42 days. Controls received 0.1 ml of 0.9% saline. Leptin‐treated animals and their respective age‐matched controls were euthanised on either day 1, 21, 42 or 56 of recovery for collection of epididymal spermatozoa. Sperm concentration was determined using a Makler counting chamber. Spermatozoa were analysed for 8‐hydroxy‐2‐deoxyguanosine and DNA fragmentation (Comet assay). Data were analysed using anova. Sperm concentration
