Published: January 2024

BACKGROUND: Architecture students maintain uncomfortable body postures for hours while designing and constructing project models, putting them at high risk of developing musculoskeletal pain (MSP). OBJECTIVE: This research aimed to determine the prevalence of MSP among students at the Architecture and Planning College at King Saud University, Saudi Arabia. METHODS: This descriptive cross-sectional survey study used a self-administered online questionnaire. A total of 123 students (65 female) aged 19–25 years participated. The survey consisted of eight demographic and health status questions and the Extended Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire (NMQ-E). The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics; Mann-Whitney U and chi-square tests were used to compare genders at α= .05. RESULTS: Approximately 94.3% of architecture students reported pain in at least one body region in the last 12 months, and 87.0% in the last seven days. The highest reported percentage of MSP was neck pain, followed by lower back pain. No differences in MSP were found between genders, except in elbow and hand pain for the last 12 months and elbow pain for the last seven days. CONCLUSION: There was a high prevalence of MSP among undergraduate architecture students, highlighting the need to prevent occupational health issues at an early stage.
A Deeper Look at the Origin and Evolution of the Social Work Profession
Authors: Sethuramalingam V.
Published: January 2024

The purpose of this article is to examine how social work has changed from its beginnings to the early 21st century in India, Europe, the United Kingdom and the United States. It emphasises the significance of understanding social work's past in order to consider the field's potential futures. Qualitative research methods were utilised, and information was gathered from existing literature, informants, and through field visits for observation and verification to validate the collected data. Almshouses, or choultries, in India, can trace their origins back to the time of Buddha. Records from the Chinese traveller Fa-Hien reveals similar hospitals in India around 400 BCE. From the 7th century AD, the temples served food to devotees through 'temple kitchens. These institutions paved the way for almshouses in China, the Middle East, Europe, and Britain, signifying that the groundwork for Social Work as a profession in India predates the Charity Organisation Society and the Settlement House Movement. Although Social Work, both as a career and as a way of living, evolved in India, they were not explicitly mentioned as such in the countless books on Social Work that have been published over the decades.
Surgical Treatment of Uncomplicated Pilonidal Sinus with the Simple Closed Technique - New Findings of Pilonidal Sinus Treatment from Albania.
Authors: Dettmer Marius , Doll Dietrich , Maak Matthias
Published: January 2024

Dear Editor,

Concerning the article of Bollano E et al. “Surgical treatment of uncomplicated Pilonidal Sinus with a simple closed technique” has been gathering our attention. In this LTE, we would like to critically discuss some of the author's statements. Firstly, the stated pathophysiology of PSD is an outdated theory. Furthermore, primary midline closure, as postulated by the author, is not the surgical procedure of first choice, as several large reviews have shown.

The letter discusses the rationale behind adopting the simple closed technique, highlighting its efficacy and potential advantages. By presenting data from our experiences in Albania, we aim to contribute valuable insights to the global discourse on pilonidal sinus treatment.

This letter is a noteworthy addition to AJTES, offering fresh insights into the treatment landscape of pilonidal sinus. We trust the editorial team will find the content aligned with the journal's objectives and scope.

Your consideration of this submission is highly appreciated, and we look forward to the possibility of contributing to the journal's ongoing dialogue on innovative surgical approaches.
Allergic Acute Coronary Syndrome: A Case Report and Literature Review
Authors: Hoxha Mehmet , Ndreu Ester , Qirko Loloçi Etleva
Published: January 2024

Introduction: Kounis Syndrome was first described in 1991 by Kounis and Zavras as “the concurrence of chest pain during an allergic reaction, accompanied by clinical laboratory findings of classical angina pectoris caused by inflammatory mediators released during the allergic insult” [1].

The mechanism of Kounis Syndrome most likely involves the release of cytokines through mast-cell degranulation, which leads to coronary vasospasm and atheromatous plaque erosion or rupture following the allergic reaction to an allergen.[2]

The treatment is specific to acute coronary syndrome and anaphylaxis, with the added complication that the drugs used, while indicated in each of the two disorders separately, may present contradictions when administered jointly in one patient.[3]

The purpose of this review is to briefly revise the existing literature regarding its overlooked diagnosis and contradictory joint management of anaphylaxis and acute coronary syndrome.

We will conduct a brief review of the current literature on Kounis Syndrome while describing a suspected case of a female patient presented with both anaphylaxis symptoms and angina pectoris.

Conclusions: Kounis syndrome is defined as the co-incidental occurrence of an acute coronary syndrome with hypersensitivity reactions following an allergic reaction. Treatment of allergic reactions may be sufficient in type I KS. In contrast, coronary intervention is needed in the other two types, accompanied by vasodilator drugs, including nitrates and calcium antagonists, each of which may have contradictory effects.
The Benefit of Open Rives-Stoppa Procedure in Complex Incisional Hernia.
Authors: Masati Bledi , Haxhiu Asfloral , Dhima Marsel , Punmira Tomi , Zikaj Gentian , Ibrahimi Alfred , Dogjani Agron
Published: January 2024

Introduction: Ventral hernia is one of the most common general surgical pathologies. An incisional hernia will develop in 10–15% of patients with an abdominal incision, and the risk increases to up to 23% in those who develop surgical site infections.

Ventral hernia repairs are mostly elective (90%) procedures, but the repair methods are highly variable.

Popularized in Europe by Rives and Stoppa, the retromuscular technique has proven to be very effective, with a 94.2% probability of having the lowest odds for recurrence and a 77.3% probability of having the lowest odds for SSI.

The study aimed to evaluate our experience at a secondary care center performing Rives-Stoppa repair for abdominal ventral and incisional hernias.

Materials and Methods: Between April 2019 and August 2021, 46 patients in the practice at a secondary regional hospital, Teni Konomi, Korce, Albania, underwent a Rives-Stoppa incisional hernia repair.

Results: There were 14 (31%) males and 32(69%) females (age range 31-75).

Most incisional hernias were midline xiphoid-pubic incision and supraumbilical, with several subcostals (2 right and 1 left) hernias.At the time of repair, most incisional hernias were symptomatic and evident on physical exam. In four cases, the hernia sac was incarcerated at the presentation time.

Conclusion: The Rives-Stoppa technique has excellent long-term results and low morbidity in patients with large primary or recurrent incisional hernias. It is the gold standard for most surgeons.

Paradoxes of inter-municipal public consortia in Brazil: do state capacities and social accountability in municipalities influence their decisions to cooperate?
Authors: Grin Eduardo José , Fernandes Gustavo
Published: January 2024

La literatura brasileña sobre cooperación intergubernamental para formular y ejecutar políticas públicas (aquí denominadas “consorcios públicos intermunicipales”) sugiere una falta de calidad de gestión y responsabilidad social en estos acuerdos. Los estudios, sin embargo, no exploran el contexto de gestión y responsabilidad social en los municipios que participan en estos consorcios, observando si estos elementos influyen en la decisión de los gobiernos locales de involucrarse en la cooperación intergubernamental. La investigación aborda este tema mediante el análisis de consorcios intermunicipales en políticas de salud, educación y saneamiento en Brasil. Utiliza un modelo Probit donde existen cuatro variables independientes: capacidades estatales (existencia de plan y fondos municipales y mando único del sector) y responsabilidad social (consejos municipales con representantes del gobierno y la sociedad civil). Cuando se controlan por otras variables demográficas, socioeconómicas, políticas y financieras, los resultados no brindan apoyo empírico a las hipótesis sobre la influencia de la gestión local y la responsabilidad social en la decisión de los municipios de cooperar. El estudio concluye que existe una paradoja al esperar calidad gerencial y mayor responsabilidad social en los consorcios intermunicipales. Al mismo tiempo, estos elementos no se observan como cruciales en las decisiones del municipio para participar en estos arreglos cooperativos.
Predicting Axial Stress State In Continuously Welded Rail Using Impulse-Generated Vibration Measurements
Authors: Huang Chi-Luen , Popovics John S
Published: January 2024

Continuously welded rails are connected without stress relief joints and, thus, thermally induced rail movement is constrained, which can result in the development of excessive axial stress and risk of rail failure. Nondestructive testing (NDT) methods that estimate in-place rail stress state or rail neutral temperature are desired. Some methods have been developed, but none satisfy the requirements for ideal monitoring in practice. We propose an NDT technique based on impulse-generated vibration, seeking high-frequency rail vibration resonances whose frequency maintains a consistent correlation with rail axial stress/strain across different temperatures, stress states, and rail support conditions. Rail temperature, axial strain, and vibration data were collected from an active Class 1 commercial rail line over a period of nearly two years. The frequencies of four consistent and clear resonance modes of the rail were monitored. One of the identified modes demonstrates a unique linear relation with axial strain across a range of temperatures and stress states at each of the two measurement locations. The developed linear relations were used to predict in-place strain and rail neutral temperature with acceptable accuracy across all the measurement data, although each test location exhibits a unique relation.

Published: January 2024

Approximately 80% of stroke patients experience disability in the form of hemiparesis (weakness of half of the body). Physiotherapy problems that commonly occur in post-stroke hemiparesis include decreased muscle strength, spasticity, and balance disorders. This research is a correlation analysis study with one independent variable and 2 dependent variables, aiming to determine the correlation between balance improvement with decreased leg muscle spasticity and improved leg muscle strength in post-stroke hemiparesis patients, carried out at the Inggit Medical Center Clinic Makassar with a total sample of 12 people who met the inclusion criteria and were given intervention in the form of the bobath method for 10 treatments, the measuring instruments used were functional reach test (FRT) for balance, Asworth scale for spasticity, and chair stand for leg muscle strength. Spearman test between balance and muscle strength obtained a p value of 0.001 (p <0.05) with a positive r of 0.822 which means there is a positive and significant correlation between increasing balance and increasing muscle strength. While between balance and spasticity obtained a p value of 0.04 (p <0.05) with a negative r value of 0.584, which means there is a negative and significant correlation between increasing balance and decreasing spasticity. Improved balance has a significant relationship with increased muscle strength, and improved balance has a significant relationship with decreased spasticity in post-stroke hemiparesis patients.

Authors: Widodo Purwanto
Published: January 2024

The research aims to analyze the influence of the Covid-19 crisis on changes in the daily return pattern of the LQ45 Index, and to see whether the daily return pattern of the LQ45 Index is efficient as argued by the EMH (Efficient Market Hypothesis). The observation period was before and during Covid 19. Data analysis used an econometric approach to test any EMH anomalies, as well as running the ARCH-GARCH model due to the use of dummy variables. The analysis results show that Covid-19 has no effect on the daily return pattern of LQ45, The Week Four effect is proven, but The Day of Week effect, Monday effect and Weekend effect are not found. Another finding that the trading day anomaly testing model is sensitive to the error term distribution, also suggests that good news or bad news in volatility not only depends on the asymmetric model but also the choice of error term distribution.
Words Matter

Published: January 2024

The academic library milieu is replete with verbal interactions that occur between library staff and patrons, as well as within the library staff cohort. Such communication impacts the quality and results of library support provided to students, faculty and community. It also affects workplace health and productivity. Consequently, among academic library staff, knowledge and awareness of effective language use is a crucial component of professional practice. This scoping review examines and analyzes the published literature for beneficial and detrimental verbatim exemplars of communication in the context of academic libraries. While the review found significant literature addressing categories of interpersonal communication in the academic library, few studies provide verbal exemplars. Given that such exemplars play an important role in understanding language categories, and in augmenting effective language use, this gap in the literature warrants further attention.
Preserving traditional Balinese architecture: exploring the relevance of undagi’s indigenous knowledge in post-pandemic interior design
Authors: Dwi Noorwatha I Kadek , Santosa Imam
Published: January 2024

This research is focused on exploring the relevance of undagi’s indigenous knowledge implemented on post-pandemic interior design as a recommendation for preserving traditional Balinese architecture in the modern era. As UNESCO promoted safeguarding the "Intangible Cultural Heritage" in 2003, all designers must strengthen the cultural side in still relevant designs for the modern era. In Bali, undagi’s (traditional architect) existence declined in the modern era. Undagi’s indigenous knowledge is the basis for the architectural development of traditional Balinese houses (umah) for designing tourism facilities as research objects. This research is a desk study with a critical analytical approach that qualitatively conducts a comparative study between indigenous knowledge and post-pandemic interior design recommendations with two stages of research—in the first stage, critically analyzing post-pandemic interior design recommendations by previous researchers with a systemic literature review. In the second stage, exploring undagi’s indigenous knowledge consists of explicit and tacit knowledge. The result of the two stages is the formulation of the relevance of undagi’s indigenous knowledge in post-pandemic interior design in Bali. The study results show that the undagi’s indigenous knowledge has relevance, which aligns with the recommendations for post-pandemic interior design criteria by previous researchers. This relevance is closely relevant, and several relevant values require development and interpretation to have interconnectivity between modern and traditional values. This process of interconnectivity must prioritize the principle of preserving traditional Balinese architecture in the modern era.

Серед них безперебійне забезпечення та доступність продуктів харчування належної якості у достатній кількості для підтримання нормальної життєдіяльності організму. Також виокремлено окремі вразливі аспекти продовольчої безпеки, запобігання яким покладається безпосередньо на особовий склад продовольчої служби і напряму залежить від їхньої компетенції. Вони пов'язані з псуванням продуктів харчування у зв'язку з закінченням терміну придатності продукту, та/або у зв'язку з потраплянням у продовольство патогенних організмів, хімічних, фізичних, радіоактивних забрудників. Розроблено рекомендації щодо мінімізації можливих ризиків продовольчої безпеки, що є особливо актуальним — в умовах ведення бойових дій. Визначено два найбільш імовірних способи зараження продовольства в умовах ведення бойових дій, а саме ненавмисний, внаслідок халатності або недотримання правил техніки безпеки поводження з продовольством та зараження як результат диверсійної діяльності.

Цінність дослідження: Окреслення найбільш уразливих аспектів зберігання, транспортування, приготування та видачі готової їжі дозволить розробити систему оцінки ризиків та оптимальну стратегію запобігання навмисному та випадковому псуванню продовольства.

DINAMIKA GRATITUDE PADA IBU YANG MEMILIKI ANAK DOWN SYNDROME
Authors:   Widya Mandala Catholic University Surabaya, Teguh Pipit Meidy , Prasetyo Eli ,   Widya Mandala Catholic University Surabaya
Published: January 2024

Down syndrome adalah sebuah kelainan kromosom 21 menyebabkan anak dengan memiliki kekurangan dalam aspek kognitif. Ketika seorang ibu dihadapkan dengan lahirnya anak down syndrome pasti akan memberikan dampak pada kehidupan ibu. Adanya keterbatasan yang dialami oleh anak down syndrome, pengasuhan yang diberikan kepada anak down syndrome dengan anak normal akan berbeda. Dalam hal ini, gratitude penting untuk tumbuh dalam kehidupan orangtua atau ibu yang memiliki anak berkebutuhan khusus. Adanya gratitude ini penting, sebagai protective factor agar individu menjadi pribadi yang resilien dalam melampaui kondisi yang penuh. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan fenomenologi. Informan dalam penelitian ini adalah tiga ibu yang memiliki anak down syndrome usia remaja. Peneliti memperoleh informan dengan menggunakan metode purposive sampling. Penelitian ini menggunakan teknik analisis data inductive thematic analysis. Hasil penelitian dalam penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa titik di mana informan merasakan gratitude adalah ketika terjadi proses internal dalam diri informan yang disertai oleh nilai-nilai spiritualitas, lalu informan membandingkan kondisinya dengan kondisi orang lain yang lebih di bawahnya dan adanya dukungan sosial dari keluarga dan lingkungannya. Dengan adanya gratitude, ketiga informan dapat memunculkan rasa empati, memaknai kehadiran anak, dan juga mendukung perkembangan anak.
DINAMIKA PSIKOSPIRITUAL PENYEMBUHAN LUKA BATIN

Hingga saat ini luka batin menjadi salah satu persoalan kompleks, terkhusus bagi anak muda dengan segala tugas dan tanggung jawab berat yang mulai diterimanya. Maka penelitian ini ingin mengkaji secara ilmiah mengenai dinamika psikospiritual pada anak muda yang menjalani penyembuhan luka batin. Penyembuhan luka batin merupakan suatu proses mengingat, memahami, dan menerima kembali pengalaman yang melukai batin seseorang dengan apa adanya (Bock, 2011). Penelitian ini menggunakan metode studi kasus dengan proses wawancara mendalam pada tiga informan yaitu laki-laki dan perempuan dengan usia dewasa awal (18-35 tahun) yang belum menikah dan telah mengikuti penyembuhan luka batin. Penelitian ini menggunakan teknik purposive dalam menentukan informan penelitian. Teknik analisis yang digunakan adalah teknik induktif, dengan melakukan validitas komunikatif dan argumentatif. Hasil analisis data menunjukkan bahwa dinamika psikospiritual pada anak muda yang melakukan penyembuhan luka berangkat dari keinginan untuk sembuh dan berdamai dengan masa lalunya sehingga bisa memiliki perasaan, pemikiran, dan perilaku baru yang terlepas dari pengalaman luka batin. Selain itu orang yang sudah berdamai dengan luka batinnya akan lebih bisa menggali pengalaman cinta dan juga hidup bagi sesama dan semesta, tidak memikirkan diri sendiri. Kemauan dari diri sendiri dan dukungan sosial sangat berperan pada proses penyembuhan luka batin ini.
Push it over the limit: Elevating DNA double-strand break toxicity
Authors:   , Koob Lisa
Published: January 2024

The integrity of our genome is constantly threatened by a variety of endogenous and exogenous sources. Repair of the lesions that arise in our DNA because of these insults to the genome is of utmost importance, as failure to repair them can lead to mutagenesis, cancer formation or cell death. Of the different types of DNA damage, the DNA double-strand break (DSB) is one of the most toxic lesions. Considering that the repair of DSBs is a crucial event during cellular homeostasis, studying the molecular details of the repair process provides many novel insights that could potentially help prevent cancer formation. We studied the response to DSBs from different angles to uncover ways to enhance their toxicity, which will hopefully allow better understanding of the cellular response to DNA damage, as well as more effective treatments for cancer patients.
In this thesis, different aspects of the DNA damage response were investigated with the goal to enhance the toxicity of DSBs. This toxicity was first probed in the context of chromatin environment. We then performed a genetic screen to identify novel sensitizers to ionizing radiation (IR). In the course of this work, we confirmed two hits from our screen, showing that depletion of these proteins results in increased sensitivity to IR. Lastly, we used a microscopy-based drug screening approach to identify compounds that lead to increased cellular toxicity of IR. This approach allowed us to identify multiple drugs that have the potential to enhance IR-induced sensitivity.

VÝVOJOVÉ TENDENCIE ZÁSADY NE BIS IN IDEM PRI UKLADANÍ (NIELEN) DAŇOVÝCH SANKCIÍ
Authors:   University of Pavol Jozef Šafárik, Úradník Michal
Published: January 2024

Právna prax ukladania sankcií, rešpektuje stav viacnásobného potrestania za jedno identické protiprávne konanie, ktoré je neraz posúdené aj ako správny delikt a aj ako trestný čin. Typickým príkladom je ukladanie sankcií na úseku daní. S prihliadnutím na právnu istotu, ako aj zásadu ne bis in idem je ale nežiaduci postup, kedy dichotomický náhľad na totožné protiprávne konanie vedie k potrestaniu osoby tak v intenciách administratívneho trestania, ako aj v trestnom konaní. Vedecký príspevok sa zaoberá analýzou uvedenej zásady, a to na podklade komparácie jej vývojových tendencii. Osobitne je zohľadnená právna teória, ako aj rozhodovacia činnosť súdnych autorít.

Crohn's disease is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that can affect any part of the digestive tract from the mouth to the anus. Oral lesions in oral Crohn's disease are the most common extraintestinal manifestations of this disease and may reflect various pathogenic diseases. They can cause specific granulomatous inflammation in the oral mucosa, may be caused by malabsorption in patients, and also with side effects of CD drug therapy. In CD, several extraintestinal manifestations can also occur at the same time, and the appearance of one of them increases the likelihood of developing another. Use of private sector services.
