Destigmatizing Experiences of Combat Veterans Engaged in Civilian Disaster Relief: Implications for Community Transition

Combat veterans possess some attributes of differentness that may cause others in society to create stigmatized perceptions of them and devalue their skills. Direct interaction/contact allows targeted individuals—in this case, combat veterans—to demonstrate their value by dispelling negative attitudes or beliefs others may have of them. A previous study reported that the disaster relief setting facilitates contact among combat veterans and non-military civilians. This study applied Modified Labeling Theory (MLT) to assess if the stigma and labeling experience among combat veterans volunteering in disaster settings provides a nuanced understanding. Semi-structured interviews were used to assess perceptions of male Team Rubicon (TR) members (n=9) who provide disaster relief in civilian settings. All participants served in combat. Data were thematically analyzed. Findings suggest 1) combat veterans were not stigmatized by their label; and 2) personal contact with civilians impacted by disaster helped TR members a) to demonstrate their value, and b) feel more optimistic about connecting with civilians in other contexts. Our findings suggest that veterans working with peer combat veterans and civilians in disaster settings provided a destigmatizing condition whereby combat veterans felt less stigmatized by others and more interpersonally connected with civilians. It is recommended that since the majority of services for veterans come from civilian community providers, it is imperative that providers be sensitive to military culture and experiences of those serving in combat to avoid further stigmatization of veterans.
Association between hereditary hemochromatosis and hepatocellular carcinoma: a comprehensive review

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a significant global health problem with high morbidity and mortality. Its incidence is increasing exponentially worldwide with a close overlap between annual incidence and death rates. Even though significant advances have been made in HCC treatment, fewer than 20% of patients with HCC are suitable for potentially curative treatment. Hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) is an important genetic risk factor for HCC. HH is an autosomal recessive disorder of iron metabolism, characterised by elevated iron deposition in most organs including the liver, leading to progressive organ dysfunction. HCC is a complication of HH, nearly always occurring in patients with cirrhosis and contributes to increased mortality rates. Identifying the susceptibility of development of HCC in HH patients has gained much traction. This review summarises the current knowledge with regard to the association of HH and HCC in order to encourage further research. In this review, we focus particularly on HFE gene-related HH. Herein, we highlight and discuss emerging clinical research which addresses the prevalence of HCC in HH patients and the coincidence of HH with other risk factors for HCC development. We also focus on the therapeutic tools in the management of HCC associated with HH.

RESULTS AND EVALUATION OF A MODIFIED TECHNIQUE FOR PERCUTANEOUS PINNING OF PROXIMAL HUMERUS

Introduction: Proximal humeral fractures are extremely common injuries, and are one of the true osteoporotic fractures. For those that have moderate to severe displacement, the optimal treatment for the patient has not been fully elucidated. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the functional outcome of a modification of percutaneous K-wire fixation technique. Material and methods: A prospective study was performed on all patients diagnosed with intra-articular proximal humerus fracture presenting to us from June 2016 to June 2018. Only patients with closed, displaced two or three part fractures as per Neer’s classification were included in the study. Fractures were managed by close reduction and percutaneous pinning with K wires which were linked by a fixator rod using clamps. Patients were evaluated for functional outcome using the Constant score. Results: Twenty seven patients comprising of 18 females and 9 males were followed for an average period of 14 months. Mean age of the patients was 56 years. Fall while walking was the most common mode of injury followed. Mean Constant Score of patients was 77.2. All patients achieved full functional range of motion by the end of 4 months. No nerve injury was reported. Conclusion: Modified technique for percutaneous Kwire fixation using the fixator mini clamps and rods is an effective and economical method allowing biological preservation with good results.
Knowledge, attitude, and practices toward evidence-based dentistry among dentists of Bengaluru city

Introduction: In these challenging times, practice of dentistry is becoming more complex. Evidence-based dentistry (EBD) strengthen the profession by identifying knowledge gaps, confidence in clinical decision making and encourage to formulate clear questions regarding the evidence needed. It closes the gap between clinical research and real-world practice and provides tools to interpret and apply research findings. Aim: This study aims to describe the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of dentists toward the concept of EBD. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among a representative sample of 300 dentists in dental colleges and private practices of Bengaluru city using a self-administered questionnaire. Descriptive statistics was computed. The frequency for each domain of knowledge, attitude, and practice was calculated after giving weight age for each option. For statistical analysis, t-test was used. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Mean age of the dentists was 32.9 ± 8.1 years. Mean knowledge, attitude, and practice were 17.41 ± 6.45, 1.92 ± 0.75, and 17.06 ± 3.05, respectively. Majority of them relied on their own judgment as a guide to primary care practice. Very less number of dentists relied on Cochrane library as a reliable source for evidence-based practice. Conclusions: Although the dentists were generally aware of the concept of EBD very little use of this concept in clinical practice was followed quoting lack of access as a barrier. However, the reflected attitudes toward EBD were good with most of the respondents expressing an interest in having further education in this concept.
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus-prevalence and Antimicrobial Sensitivity Pattern among Burn Patients in a Tertiary Care Hospital in Vindhya Region

Background: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a well-recognized public health problem throughout the world. The evolution of new genetically distinct community-acquired and livestock-acquired MRSA and extended resistance to other non-β-lactams including vancomycin has only amplified the crisis. This paper presents data on the prevalence of MRSA and resistance pattern to other antibiotics on the selected specimen from burn patients. Materials and Methods: This is a prospective study conducted in the burn unit of Shyam Shah Medical College and Sanjay Gandhi Memorial Hospital, Rewa (M.P.), from June 2018 to May 2019, where all patients with flame and scald burns were included in the study who had up to a second degree or partial-thickness burns. Results: A total of 558 patients were admitted in the burn unit throu`ghout the year, the age ranged from 2 months to 85 years. About 56.10% were females and 43.90% were males. Pseudomonas aeruginosa (37.5%) was the most common isolate followed by S. aureus (18.75%). The prevalence of MRSA was 57.14% but all the MRSA isolates showed 100% sensitivity to vancomycin and linezolid closely followed by piperacillin and tazobactam combination. The prevalence of methicillin resistance overall among S. aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis was found to be 51.72%. Conclusion: MRSA is prevalent among the burn wounds but is 100% sensitive to vancomycin and linezolid. To ensure early and appropriate therapy, routine microbiological surveillance and a regular update of their antimicrobial susceptibility pattern could help in the prevention of development of multidrug resistance.
A Comparison Study of Airfoils Used in H-Rotor Darrieus Wind Turbine

A Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWTs) is considered one of the promising type of turbines. Although the full life cycle of VAWTs shows that it has advantageous on a cost basis or material basis over Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines HAWTs. VAWTs are easy to connect generator/gears, lower fatigue, and easier blade control if required and compact design. Darrieus turbine is one of the most important types of VAWTs since it reaches to an approximate level of horizontal axis wind turbines. The main disadvantages are that the Darrieus turbines are not a selfstarting turbine and its performance is low comparing to the horizontal axis. In order to improve the Darrieus performance and its execution, it needs to check the efficiency of the H-rotor Darrieus turbine. In this project, ANSYS is used to compare between different types of airfoils to check which one gives a precise result. This experiment will be carried out by twodimensional Computational Fluid Dynamics to the aerodynamic investigation for 15 different types of symmetric and non-symmetric airfoils. Through the test, if attack angle is increased, the Cl/Cd ratio increases as well. The Cl/Cd ratio is representing the performance factor of an accurate result and shape of air foils. There are four family types of airfoils that give a smoother result than the rest of airfoils, and the results indicated that AH93W215 has the highest possible efficiency with the wider operating range compared with other four-airfoil sections. This study expresses the idea of using AH93W215 airfoil instead of the conventional NACA 00XX for the H-rotor Darrieus turbine since it has a better performance and precise results.

FACTORS LEADING TO THE ACCEPTANCE OF FEMALE EXECUTIVES’ LEADERSHIP IN THE BROADCASTING AND TELECOMMUNICATION ORGANIZATION

The objectives of this research were 1) to study the acceptance level of female executives in the broadcasting and telecommunication organization and 2) to study different types of leadership that lead to acceptance from co-workers, subordinates, and supervisors in the broadcasting and telecommunication organization. It is a quantitative research, in which the questionnaire was used to collect data from 1,257respondents in the broadcasting and telecommunication organization. The samples were obtained by purposive sampling. Data analysis was based on descriptive analysis. Hypothesis testing was based on multiple regression. The results found that the factors of skills, personality, and types of leadership hugely generated the acceptance of female executives’ leadership; affected the acceptance; and led to work success and efficient administration for broadcasting and telecommunication organizations in Thailand. The casual relationship model developed was appropriate because it conformed to the empirical data. Moreover, each factor was valid and acceptable. The factors were the most crucial variables of administrative style for executives; and of success in the acceptance of female executives in regulatory agencies.
Alternative models of implementation Co rporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Rehabilitation Home Unlivable (RTLH) Sinarmas in Military Region VII / Wirabuana Makassar involving the public sector, private sector and civil society d early in perspective Governance

In view of the science of public administration involvement of other actors outside the state (Non State) in managing public affairs known as the paradigm of governance. Governance refers to a process of policy-making and the process by which the policy was implemented with the involvement of the public sector (state/government), private sector (private) and civil society (community) in the process of making and implementing the policy of the. With the Law No. 40 taun 2007 on PT particular article 74 on social corporate responsibility (CSR) and Article 66 which requires the company is required to have a report from the program CSR indicted, the phenomenon of CSR has become a public matter.

Patients’ Perception of Quality Nursing Care in a Federal Medical Centre

- Measuring and reporting patient satisfaction has become very important in this era of health care management system as an evaluator for quality care services. The derogatory remarks which range from poor quality of care delivery to service delay, discontinuity of care, indifferent attitude of nursing staff and poor communication skills, when compared with findings of various studies is rather contradictory. This study explored patient’s idea of quality nursing care (QNC) services in congruence with the overall patients’ perception of quality nursing care and patients’ characteristics. The Study used a descriptive survey approach in which structured questionnaires (IPQCN) on a five (5) point likert scale was used for data collection. Thematic analysis was used to code and describe patients’ idea of quality nursing care. The results of 100 in-patient perception of quality care nursing were analyzed using percentages, and chi square analysis method to compare variables. The finding revealed that majority of the patients (62%) had deficient knowledge on quality nursing care while 38% of the respondents’ idea of QNC centered on nurses attributes and the organization of nursing care. Evaluation of the overall patients’ perception of QNC shows a high (44.5%) and very high (41.8%) level of satisfaction while 8.9% showed dissatisfaction with the QNC. The cross tabulation of patients characteristics; age, marital status, duration of hospitalization, previous history of hospitalization, health status, educational level and the perception of QNC shows high level of significance. These provided further insight on the significance of individualized and holistic care. While the patients’ perception of quality nursing care remains high and positive as seen from this study and various other studies, it is imperative to match it with proper knowledge and recognizable standard of quality to prevent unrealistic expectations, false positive perception, unwholesome comments and negative public image of profession. Sound orientation should be rendered and expectation of possible outcome should be well communicated so as to empower patients to be better evaluators of Quality nursing care.
Cheating and Neutralization

The concept of neutralization —originally developed in the field of criminology— has been widely used in the context of student cheating. Cheaters are said to believe that cheating is wrong yet to deny that what they did is wrong or to blame someone else. I argue that authors who make claims of findings of neutralization generally cannot substantiate them. They over-interpret their data, in particular taking ‘does not contradict the theory’ as meaning ‘proves the theory’. I also point out that purely empirical data cannot be enough, since neutralization requires some theory of what is wrong behaviour, and no such theory has been provided so far. © Mathieu Bouville, 2008
Using Hexad User Types to Select Suitable Gamification Elements to Encourage Healthy Eating

Given that an increasing number of people cultivate poor eating habits, encouraging people to eat healthy is important. One way to motivate people eating healthy is using gamification, i.e. using game elements in a non-game context. Often, a static set of gamification elements is used. However, research suggests that the motivational impact of gamification elements differs substantially across users, demanding personalized approaches. In this paper, we contribute to this by investigating the perception of frequently used gamification elements in the healthy eating domain and correlations to Hexad user types in an online study (N=237). To do so, we created storyboards illustrating these gamification elements and show their comprehensibility in a lab study (N=8). Our results validate and extend previous research in the healthy eating domain, underline the need for personalization and could be used to inform the design of gamified systems for healthy eating.
CLINICAL COMPETENCY AND ITS RELATED FACTORS IN NURSES

Introduction and objectives: Changes in Systems of health monitoring and the need for safe and affordable services and also increased expect of receiving services with proper quality, have considered clinical competencies of health-related professions and also clinical competency is the one of the factors influencing satisfaction and patient safety. Hence it is necessary for nurses and their supervisors to improve and evaluate their clinical competency. That it requires identifying the influencing or clinical competency related factors. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate clinical competency and its related factors in nurses working at hospitals affiliated to Zahedan University of Medical Sciences. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive analytic study, 231 nurses were selected randomly. Research samples were nurses who were in charge of direct care for patients in one of the clinical sections. The data collection instrument was a two-part questionnaire. The first part is related to the nurses' individual characteristics and the second part of clinical competency standard questionnaire (CIRN) includes 55 items. Data analysis using descriptive and inferential statistical analysis was performed by SPSS version 17. Results: Data collected showed that the majority stated that they have a high clinical competency (1.80), and also, in demographic variables there was a significant relationship between clinical competency, age and years of service. Conclusion: in accordance with the results of this study, nurses with the fewer age and years of service should be considered more carefully in order to increase clinical competency by proper training and capability enhancement.
Niall O’Higgins and Marco Stimolo Trust and reciprocity in youth labor markets: An experimental approach to analyzing the impact of labour market experiences on young people Economics and Econometrics Research Institute EERI

In this experiment, we study whether individuals’ labour market state (i.e. employed, student or NEET) affect their trusting and trustworthy behavior. To identify both the effect of labour market state and the effect of information on others’ labour market state over one’s behavior, we implement an experiment with two one-shot trust games with random and anonymous matching: in the first game, subjects receive no information on the counterpart; in the second one, the labour market state of both players is common knowledge. We find that, amongst the different sub-categories of NEETs, the status of unemployed has a markedly negative effect on trust and trustworthiness. Furthermore, precariousness in the labour market results to be as damaging as unemployment for trust and trustworthiness.

This study was conducted to determine the antibiotic and screening resistance genes of Escherichia coli (E. coli) isolated from diarrheal yak calves from high remote plateau in Sichuan, China. A total 41 rectal swabs were obtained from diarrheal yak calves. E. coli were isolated and identified. The antimicrobial sensitivity was tested by piloting the disk diffusion method for 21 antibiotics. Polymerase chain reaction was employed to detect the resistance genes. The results showed that the drug resistance ranged from 2.4% (amikacin) to 53.7% (tetracycline), while no isolates were found resistant to neomycin and polymyxin B. Multi-drug resistance was detected in 4.9% isolates to 17 antimicrobial agents; and 24.4% isolates were found susceptible to all antimicrobial agents. The aminoglycoside resistance genes of aac(3)-lla, ant(3')-la and aph(3')-lla was positive in 4.9%, 2.1% and 7.3% E. coli isolates respectively. The 4.9% and 2.1% of E. coli isolates were detected in b-Lactam resistance genes of TEM and CTX-M, respectively; and 12.2% and 4.9% of E. coli isolates were found to have Tetracycline resistance genes of tetM and tetA, respectively. The present study reveals that the yak calves from high cold plateau are potential reservoir of E. coli with widely distributed multiple drug resistance which requires the attention of concerned authorities regarding the use of non-standard antibiotics.
