KADAR PROTEIN URIN PADA IBU HAMIL TRIMESTER II DAN III DI PUSKESMAS II DENPASAR BARAT

ABSTRACT The presence of excess level of protein in pregnant women’s urine is one of the cause of preeclampsia, besides hypertension and edema. Some disease that can discover protein in pregnant women’s urine are renal diseases (glomerulus or tubular disease) and non-renal diseases (heart disease, liver disease, fever, stress, diabetes militus, hypertenssion). This study aims at describing the result of proteinuria level based on the examination from pregnant women’s urine of second and third trimester in Puskesmas II Denpasar Barat. This research applied a descriptive survey and the amount of samples was taken by using non-probability sampling method with insidental sampling technique, the data were collected from 39 respondents during the period of February to May 2016.The sample were examined semi-quantitatively by using dipstick test. Results of the examination to 39 samples indicates that 29 urine samples (74,36%) was negative, seven urine samples (17,95%) positive 1 (+), two urine samples (5,13%) positive 2 (++) and one urine samples (2,56%) positive 3 (+++). keywords: pregnant woment; protein urine level; second trimester; third trimester
Evaluation of the role of pre-operative albumin and its post-operative drop in the prediction of outcomes of emergency laparotomy

Laparotomies are among the most commonly performed surgeries in an emergency setting. Complications following laparotomy vary from pain, wound infection and dehiscence, bleeding, bowel complications such as anastomotic leaks to systemic complications such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), acute kidney injury (AKI), pulmonary thromboembolism and death. These are a result of the activation of the surgical stress response which follows all surgeries, more so the major abdominal surgeries, the magnitude and duration of which are proportional to the surgical injury. These ultimately result in catabolic changes.
Relationship between some morphological traits of the tomato lines and resistance to tomato yellow leaf curl virus disease

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is the most produced and exported vegetable in Turkey. There are many pathogens to limit tomato production by reducing yield and fruit quality. Among them, Tomato Yellow Leaf Curl Virus (TYLCV) causes important economic losses. The most efficient and environmentally friendly method against TYLCV is the use of resistant varieties. In this trial, it was aimed to determine some morphological traits which were linked to Ty-1 and Ty-3a genes which confer to TYLCV. A commercial hybrid carrying Ty-1, Ty-3a genes as heterozygous was crossed to a susceptible inbred line from Bati Akdeniz Agricultural and Research Institute (BATEM). Marker assisted selection (MAS) was carried out in F1 and F2 generations and biological tests were done for TYLCV resistance in F3 generation. MAS for Ty-3a and Ty-1 genes were compatible with biological tests. In total of 95 genotypes in F3 were developed with molecular marker selection. It was determined that 30 genotypes having the Ty-3a and Ty-1 genes as homozygous resistant. The nine genotypes carried these genes in heterozygous form. 56 genotypes were identified as susceptible. The 43 morphological traits were observed in identified individuals to correlate with resistant allele, Ty-3a. It was found that there was statistically important correlation between Ty-3a and length of internode, length of stem at first inflorescence, status of calix, leaf attitude, length of inflorescence and plant habitus. Also, there was negative correlation between fruit weight, fruit length and resistance. Therefore, we identified some morphological markers linked to Ty-3a which can be used in selection for TLYCV resistant breeding programme.
Does the presence of an opponent affect object projection accuracy in elite athletes? A study of the landing location of the short serve in elite badminton players

The ability to accurately project (e.g. throw, kick, hit) an object at high speed is a uniquely human skill, and this ability has become a critical feature of many competitive sports. Nonetheless, in some sports, the target or end-point for a projected object is often not reached because an opponent intercepts or returns the object; thus, a player cannot use object landing location information to inform accuracy outcome. By comparing the landing location of serves performed without an opponent by elite badminton players to predicted landing points of serves delivered with an opponent, we aimed to determine whether object projection accuracy is affected by the presence of an opponent. Landing locations of serves to an opponent were predicted using a model developed through analysis of serves without an opponent present. The model predicted that 69% of serves to an opponent would have landed on or short (i.e. outside the permitted area) of the service line. Thus, serve trajectory in elite badminton players was considerably altered by the presence of an opponent, despite their aim to serve to a specific point on the court.
Government Subsidies and Firm-Level Markups: Impact and Mechanism

This paper investigates the impact of government subsidies on the firm-level markups and its mechanism of action by measuring the firm-level markups based on a micro dataset of Chinese manufacturing firms from 2000 to 2007. The findings suggest that government subsidies significantly reduce the markups of Chinese firms. Moreover, there is significant heterogeneity in the negative impact of government subsidies among different types of firms. Furthermore, analysis of the impact mechanism based on the mediation effect model shows that the increase in rent-seeking cost is an important way for government subsidies to reduce the firm-level markups. Finally, based on the dynamic decomposition of the aggregate markup of the Chinese manufacturing industry, it is found that government subsidies significantly reduce the industry-level aggregate markup through within-firm and cross-firm effects. This study enriches the literature on government subsidies and markups, and provides a new perspective for understanding the micro-performance of government subsidies.
Phenomenological inquiry on nursing science international students’ experiences in a non-native English pre-clinical learning environment

Article history: Received 19 November 2019 Received in revised form 22 February 2020 Accepted 24 February 2020 Pre-clinical learning in nursing science introduces unique terminologies, abstractions, and activities needed in foundational knowledge. The language, culture, and pedagogical differences within the non-native English-medium instruction result in more complex situations for international students. The study aimed to reveal the lived experiences of international nursing students in a non-native English pre-clinical learning environment. Utilizing phenomenological design, interviews gathered data from purposively sampled participants, from four different Asian countries enrolled in an international program. Thematic analysis was done to reveal their experiences. Four major themes emerged from the participants’ narratives. Their lived experiences began with idealized expectations defined by family influence, guided opportunity, and inspiration. It evolved into a communicative struggle with the divergence of reality from their expectations. Their shaken idealizations and disrupted learning process due to language barriers had an emotional toll. The satisfactory laboratory experiences with unmet expectations brought out ambivalence in them. Communing with others, adaptive response and introspection helped them towards reality reorientation and recalibration, the last two themes to emerge. Different aspects with varying impact within the learning environment defined the experiences of the nursing science international students. These students process and develop their own adaptive responses within their evolving experiences in the non-native English pre-clinical learning environment. Policy development, continuing English language support, student development and support programs for nursing science international program students in the context of pre-clinical training are needed.
Replacing the Classic Learning Form at Universities as an Immediate Response to the COVID-19 Virus Infection in Georgia

: The high education system in Georgia currently is based only on the classical form of education, where the classrooms are led by the lecturers face-to-face with their students. Although the old system before 90-s could have lectures in the form of tuition by correspondence, this kind of system was cancelled. The modern system got under challenge when from March 02 of 2020 the education process was suspended in universities and schools countrywide due to the spread of COVID-19 coronavirus by the recommendation of national centre of disease control of Georgia. As previous practice shows universities would have to recover the missed classes in summer, or even in autumn that is a very uncomfortable period. As an alternative online interactive teaching was proposed using products that are part of G suite for education, such as Gmail, Classroom, Calendar, Forms, Jamboard, Drawings, Drive, Hangouts meet and free software Open broadcast studio. All of the products were tested. Paper includes the resolutions and recommendations for universities and colleges to quickly change the study form from face-to-face to online with minimal expenditures.
Ultrasound, a powerful non-thermal and green technique on phenolic fractional profiles (free, conjugated glycoside, conjugate esters and bound) in fermented seabuckthorn beverage

Phenolic compounds were characterized after traditional extraction method (TEM) and ultrasound-assisted extractions (UAEs) for 10 min (US10) and 15 min (US15). Four fractions (free, bound, conjugated esters, and conjugated glycosides) were obtained and characterized using RP-HPLC-PDA. The US10 extracted 22.1 % (454.3 mg/kg) phenolic compounds while US15 extracted 66.6% (1369.7 mg/kg) phenolic compounds compared to traditional extraction method (TEM) after 1 hour of extraction. US10 and TEM extracted a similar amount of aglycones (112.3 + 4.0 and 109.0 + 12.9 mg/kg, respectively) while US15 showed a significant decrease in aglycone extraction (58.9 + 4.1 mg/kg) (P<0.05). In seabuckthorn kombucha, US decreased initial microbial load by 2.6 log CFU/mL, increased ORAC value by 3% and increased water solubility index (WSI) by 40% (from 6.64 g/g to 9.29 g/g) without syneresis. Results from this study suggest that application of US can enhance phenolic functionality during fermentation and is capable of decreasing syneresis, increasing oil yield, decreasing microbial load, and increasing ORAC with minimal loss of nutritional quality.
Assessment of Primary Care Doctors’ Practice Regarding Asthma Management in Health Centers in Khartoum State, Sudan, 2017

Background: Primary health care (PHC) is the gateway to the health system, and is expected to resolve up to 85% of health problems in general. Sub-optimal management of asthma can be attributed to patient’s, doctor’s or health services’ factors. The aim of this study was to assess the Primary care doctors’ practice regarding asthma management in health centers in Khartoum State, Sudan. Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional health facility based study in which a pre-tested self-administered questionnaire was used to collect information from the primary care doctors regarding their practice in asthma management. Results: Of 131 primary care doctors (PCDs), covering 29 health centers, 87% of them were females and 75.5% were family medicine specialists (registrars and physicians). The majority of PCDs (>90%) identified environmental triggers/inducers of asthma and checked for treatment adherence at each visit. More than half of the PCDs (50%-89%) addressed patients concerns about disease/treatment, provided smoking cessation counseling and/or recommended cessation measures, and prescribed an inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) as initial maintenance therapy. Less than half of them (<50%) provided a written action plan for both exacerbation management and asthma education. Conclusion: Although the results were acceptable and comparable in most aspects of managing asthma there was a considerable gap between practice and known guidelines on asthma management. There is an urgent need to develop and implement a national protocol on asthma management.
Roughness induced shear thickening in frictional non-Brownian suspensions: A numerical study

Particle surface roughness plays a pivotal role in dictating the rheological behavior of dense suspensions of rigid particles as it promotes interparticle contacts, leading to friction and contact stresses. This suggests that roughness must have a significant impact on the shear thickening behavior of suspensions, as friction is considered to be the underlying mechanism for shear thickening in dense suspensions. To this end, we numerically investigate the effects of systematically increasing the particle surface roughness on shear thickening suspensions. We show that increasing roughness leads to early onset of shear thickening, especially discontinuous shear thickening, in terms of both the critical shear rate and the critical volume fraction. In addition, roughness enhances the strength of the shear thickening effect as it leads to increase in the viscosity of dense suspensions. We explain these results by investigating the role of roughness in the evolution of contact networks and the jamming fraction. Increasing roughness leads to denser contact networks with high contact stresses and reduction in the jamming fraction. Finally, we visualize the effect of roughness on the phase diagram for viscosity in the shear rate–volume fraction plane. The results presented in the paper are consistent with recent experimental studies, which indicates that the computational framework developed can be utilized to predict and tune suspension behavior for specific applications.Particle surface roughness plays a pivotal role in dictating the rheological behavior of dense suspensions of rigid particles as it promotes interparticle contacts, leading to friction and contact stresses.

EFFECT OF REPLACING BONE ASH WITH EGGSHELL MEAL ON NUTRIENT DIGESTIBILITY AND BLOOD PARAMETERS OF BROILER CHICKENS

One hundred and eighty 28-days-old Arbor Acres broiler birds were utilized in a 28 day experiment to investigate the effect of replacing bone ash with eggshell meal in the diet of broiler birds on their nutrient digestibility and blood parameters. Five experimental diets tagged T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 were formulated to be isocaloric (2865.53 kcal ME/kg) and isonitrogenous (20% crude protein) such that eggshell meal replaced bone ash at 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% for treatments T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 respectively. The birds were randomly assigned to the five dietary treatments and replicated twice giving a total of eighteen birds per replicate in a completely randomized design. The study showed that the haematological parameters were not affected (P>0.05) by the treatments except for Corpuscular Haemoglobin which were best (P 0.05) influenced by the treatments. Ten 28-days old birds with similar live body weight were paired and randomly assigned to five dietary treatments tagged T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 which were compounded to contain the same composition as those used in the blood studies. The birds were housed in cages and fed such that each group passed through the five treatments by rotation in a Latin Square Design arrangement. Feed and faecal samples were taken for proximate analysis. The results of the proximate analysis of the oven-dried faeces were used to compute the coefficient of digestibility of the nutrients. The results obtained showed that digestibility of dry matter, crude protein, crude fibre, ether extract, ash and nitrogen-free extract were not affected (P>0.05) by the treatments. It is therefore, recommended that since there was no deleterious and adverse effect of including eggshell meal in the diets on the blood parameters and digestibility of the nutrients, farmers can use eggshell meal as a major source of dietary calcium in broiler’ diets.
Study of Coagulation Profile and Platelet Counts in Pre Eclamptic and Eclamptic Patients

Objectives: We conducted this prospective case-control study in rural population based medical institute of central India. The aim of the study was to assess and analyze the coagulation profile (PT, aPTT, fibrinogen and fibrin degradation product [FDP] levels) and platelet counts in 3 rd trimester normotensive, pre-eclamptic and eclamptic pregnant women. Methods: In all subjects (cases and controls) 2 ml of blood sample was collected in EDTA and tri-sodium citrate bulbs for platelet counts and coagulation profile respectively. Results: The mean PT and aPTT were significantly high in cases and mean fibrinogen level was significantly low in cases as compared to controls. FDP was significantly increased in cases as compared to non-detectable level in the controls. Thrombocytopenia was observed in 45% of cases. No any correlation between level of platelet count and abnormal coagulation test results (PT, aPTT, fibrinogen and FDP) were found. Conclusion: We found in our study that platelet count and above coagulation tests should be performed in cases of pre eclampsia and eclampsia to identify severity of disease and to prevent development of complications.

Hence, this research gives the implication for the teachers to always be involved in life-long endeavor to maintain the professionalism.
Spatiotemporal Variability in Transport and Reactive Processes Across a First‐ to Fifth‐Order Fluvial Network

Fluvial networks integrate, transform, and transport constituents from terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. To date, most research on water quality dynamics has focused on process understanding at individual streams, and, as a result, there is a lack of studies analyzing how physical and biogeochemical drivers scale across fluvial networks. We performed tracer tests in five stream orders of the Jemez River continuum in New Mexico, USA, to quantify reach‐scale hyporheic exchange during two different seasonal periods to address the following: How do hyporheic zone contributions to overall riverine processing change with space and time? And does the spatiotemporal variability of hyporheic exchange scale across fluvial networks? Combining conservative (i.e., bromide) and reactive (i.e., resazurin) tracer analyses with solute transport modeling, we found a dominance of reaction‐limited transport conditions and a decrease of the contributions of hyporheic processing across stream orders and flow regimes. Our field‐based findings suggest that achieving knowledge transferability of hyporheic processing within fluvial networks may be possible, especially when process variability is sampled across multiple stream orders and flow regimes. Therefore, we propose a shift in our traditional approach to investigating scaling patterns in transport processes, which currently relies on the interpretation of studies conducted in multiple sites (mainly in headwater streams) that are located in different fluvial networks, to a more cohesive, network‐centered investigation of processes using the same or readily comparable methods.
How do East and Southeast Asian Cities Differ from Western Cities? A Systematic Review of the Urban Form Characteristics

The Fifth Assessment Report released by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC AR5) revealed that the scale of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Asian cities is similar to those from developed economies, which are driven predominantly by economic growth. Due to variations in geographic and climatic contexts, culture and religion, living style and travel behavior, governance and institutions, and a wide range of density and land use mixes, there are significant variations in urban form patterns across Western and Asian cities. This paper uses a systematic review, which is a critical interpretive synthesis methodology, to review keywords of studies related to urban form among East and Southeast Asian cities. From 3725 records identified through database searching, 213 studies were included in qualitative analysis. The results show that, although the population density in built-up areas is higher, annual population density is declining significantly in East and Southeast Asia. In addition, there are various kinds of land use mixes including horizontal, vertical, and temporal forms. As a whole, the inconsistencies of urban form characteristics exist not only between Western and Asian cities, but also among Asian cities. Serious population density decreases in Asian cities might indicate that they are undergoing similar urban development processes to those of Western cities. We should be aware of the potential lock-in trends of urban development patterns in Chinese and Southeast Asian cities.
Stabilization of Chromium (VI) in the Presence of Iron (II): Method Development and Validation

The presence of Cr (VI) in drinking water is mainly caused by leaching of chromium-containing aquifer material into groundwater. In contrast to Cr (III), it has been classified as highly toxic. For this reason, the WHO recommends the implementation of separate guideline values, instead of the so far used limit value of total chromium. The separate evaluation of Cr (VI) in raw water and during removal processes requires the Cr (VI) concentration to remain stable after sampling. In the presence of Fe (II), a stabilization of the samples is necessary to inhibit further reduction of Cr (VI) by Fe (II). In this study, two methods of Cr (VI) stabilization in Fe-(II)-containing water samples are investigated: Fe (II) oxidation by oxygen at high pH values in the presence of buffers and Fe (II) complexation by chelating agents. When adding hydrogen carbonate buffer, Cr (VI) recovery reached 100% at pH values of 10 to 12 in the presence of up to 3 mg L–1 Fe (II). Using hydrogen phosphate buffer, Cr (VI) recovery reached 100% only at pH 12 but for a Fe (II) concentration up to 6 mg L–1. Ammonium buffer was found to be less suitable for Cr (VI) stabilization. The addition of EDTA and citrate resulted in low recovery of Cr (VI), whereas citrate was found to accelerate the Cr (VI) reduction.
