Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by mycobacterium tuberculosis. It can affect some parts of the body: lungs, lymph nodes, intestines, kidneys, endometrium, bones, and brain. According to the survey of tuberculosis prevalence conducted by Republic of Indonesia Ministry of Health in 2013-2014, Indonesia was the second country in the world with the most case of tuberculosis. It makes Indonesia become a country with emergency in lungs tuberculosis. An expert system for lungs tuberculosis detection is built to help people detecting the possibility of suffering from lungs tuberculosis. Therefore, it is hoped that the lungs tuberculosis patient can have early treatment. Certainty factor is used to solve the uncertainty problem delivered by the doctor when examining the patient. Thus, certainty factor is an appropriate method to be used in the expert system for detecting certain disease. This method has been correctly implemented, proved by comparing system detection result to manual calculation result. The expert system has 81.25% accuracy, 83.49% success using DeLone and McLean model, and a cronbach alpha of 0.82 which indicates a good reliability based on the indicators used in the questionnaire. Index Terms— Certainty Factor, Disease Detection, Expert System, Pulmonary Tuberculosis, Situsparu

In this article, we first investigate the quality of aerial air pollution measurements and characterize the main error sources of drone-mounted gas sensors. To that end, we build ASTRO+, an aerial-ground pollution monitoring platform, and use it to collect a comprehensive dataset of both aerial and reference air pollution measurements. We show that the dynamic airflow caused by drones affects temperature and humidity levels of the ambient air, which then affect the measurement quality of gas sensors. Then, in the second part of this article, we leverage the effects of weather conditions on pollution measurements’ quality in order to design an unmanned aerial vehicle mission planning algorithm that adapts the trajectory of the drones while taking into account the quality of aerial measurements. We evaluate our mission planning approach based on a Volatile Organic Compound pollution dataset and show a high-performance improvement that is maintained even when pollution dynamics are high.

Gas sensors are critical components when adhering to health safety and environmental policies in various manufacturing industries, such as the petroleum and oil industry; scent and makeup production; food and beverage manufacturing; chemical engineering; pollution monitoring. In recent times, gas sensors have been introduced to medical diagnostics, bioprocesses, and plant disease diagnosis processes. There could be an adverse impact on human health due to the mixture of various gases (e.g., acetone (A), ethanol (E), propane (P)) that vent out from industrial areas. Therefore, it is important to accurately detect and differentiate such gases. Towards this goal, this paper presents a novel electronic nose (e-nose) detection method to classify various explosive gases. To detect explosive gases, metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) sensors are used as reliable tools to detect such volatile gases. The data received from MOS sensors are processed through a multivariate analysis technique to classify different categories of gases. Multivariate analysis was done using three variants—differential, relative, and fractional analyses—in principal components analysis (PCA). The MOS sensors also have three different designs: loading design, notch design, and Bi design. The proposed MOS sensor-based e-nose accurately detects and classifies three different gases, which indicates the reliability and practicality of the developed system. The developed system enables discrimination of these gases from the mixture. Based on the results from the proposed system, authorities can take preventive measures to deal with these gases to avoid their potential adverse impacts on employee health.

The Global Environment Monitoring System (GEMS) is a collective effort of the world community to acquire, through monitoring, the data needed for rational management of the environment, and arose from recommendations of the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment which was held in Stockholm in 1972. The GEMS Programme Activity Centre (PAC) at UNEP headquarters in Nairobi, Kenya, coordinates all that it can of the various environmental monitoring activities which are carried on throughout the world—particularly those within the United Nations System.Great care is taken to ensure that data gathered by GEMS are of the highest attainable quality, and that data collected from different parts of a particular monitoring network are both comparable and compatible. The GEMS Programme Activity Centre (PAC), in the manner of UNEP itself, is not operational but works mainly through the intermediary of the Specialized Agencies of the United Nations System—most notably FAO, ILO, UNESCO, WHO, and WMO—together with appropriate intergovernmental organizations such as IUCN.The GEMS monitoring system consists of five closelyinterrelated programmes which have built-in provision for training and for rendering technical assistance to ensure the participation of countries that are inadequately provided with personnel and equipment. The five are:1. Climate-related monitoring;2. Monitoring of long-range transport of pollutants;3. Health-related monitoring (concerned with pollutional effects);4. Ocean monitoring; and5. Terrestrial renewable-resource monitoring.Each of these broad areas contains at least five distinct world-wide monitoring networks. Examples of these latter are the World Glacier Inventory, Background Air Pollution Monitoring Network, Urban Air Pollution Monitoring Network, Global Water Quality Monitoring Network, Tropical Forest Monitoring Network, Species Conservation Monitoring Network, etc.Monitored data are gathered at suitable coordinating centres for each network at which appropriate data-bases have been, or are being, established. Data are analyzed to produce periodic regional and global assessments which are reported at intervals that are appropriate to the variable which is being considered.

Since the first Android smartphones were released, many applications have been developed until today. One of them is security application. Security applications consist of several types of applications such as Antivirus, SIM Card Change Alarm, and Applocker. SIM Card Changed Alarm is a security application that has capability to monitor SIM Card change in Android smartphones. Although there are many SIM Card Change Alarm applications which are available in Google Playstore, there are many people who are not satisfied with this applications. It happens due to them only sends the SMS alert to the owner without locking the phone to prevent other people using it. The outcome of this research will have the same feature as SIM Card Change Alarm but with additional features such as locking the smartphone if the SIM Card has been changed, locking and unlocking remotely using SMS, triggering loud alarm, and calling-back to owner when the smartphone has been lost or stolen. The outcome expected for the Prifone Application is a userfriendly application which could be used by many people around the world and also is able to secure Android smartphones.

Industrial revolution has started to rule the world in all aspects. As a result of this, pollutant level of contagious gas in the atmosphere is increasing at an alarming rate. The pollutants in the atmosphere create imbalance in ecosystem which in turn affects the health of human population. Although there existmany methodologies to check the pollutant level in atmosphere, it still remains a challenge for certain cement factories and chemical industries to keep a check on it. Such imbalances can be controlled by using appropriate air pollution monitoring system. OPSIS, Uras26, Magnos27 and CODEL are the methods which exist in cement factories to check the pollutant level during the emission from chimney only. Wireless Sensor Network is a versatile technology that can sense, monitor, measure, and gather information. The decision can be made from the collected information. This paper proposes how sensor nodes are deployed in cement factories at various stages of manufacturing process, how the pollutant is measured and conveyed to authority through a communication medium.

Introduction: Bronchial cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the world. We conducted  this work in order to describe  the epidemiological, clinical, therapeutic and evolutionary  characteristics of primary operated bronchopulmonary cancers. Methods: Retrospective study including all operated patients from January 2016 to October 2018. The data was entered on an Excel file and then transferred to SPSS software for analysis. Results: The rate of primary operated bronchopulmonary cancers was 6,3 %. The sex ratio was 3,11. The average age was 58,5 years old. The average consultation time exceeded three months in 80% of cases. Adenocarcinoma was the most common histological type. Conclusion: The very low rate of stages I and II at the time of diagnosis requires awareness of the value of screening and early diagnosis so that patients can benefit from surgical treatment.
