Changing Patient Perceptions of MTM: Determining an Effective Method of Education
Authors: Chen Aleda M
Published: April 2018

Background:  Medication Therapy Management (MTM) is a vital resource in reducing medication nonadherence, yet many individuals who are eligible for MTM services are unaware of what MTM is and how to enroll.  Little is known about how to best educate patients on MTM services and its benefits. Objective: To determine the difference between in-person education community education versus brochure community education on MTM services on perceptions of and enrollment in MTM services. Methods:  A pre-post quasi experimental study, where patients were allocated to receive information about MTM through an educational brochure or an in-person education session and completed survey assessments pre- and post-intervention, was conducted at a federally-qualified health center.  Patients who were ages 18 years or older, MTM-eligible, and had received no prior MTM service were eligible to participate.  Changes in patient perceptions of and enrollment in MTM from pre- to post-intervention were assessed by survey instruments developed for this study. Results: A total of 35 patients (brochure=25, in-person=10) were recruited for this study.  Most participants (94.2%) either reported having never heard of MTM or not being sure if they had heard of MTM. There were no significant between-group differences on pre-survey questions or pre-post within-group changes (p>0.05). There were significant between-group differences on 11 post-assessment questions and MTM enrollment (p<0.05), with the in-person education group showing improved perceptions and greater enrollment. Conclusion: Patients remain largely unaware of MTM services; there is a need for education to increase awareness. Even though educating patients in a face-to-face context had a more positive impact on perceptions of MTM and enrollment in MTM, more research is needed regarding the best educational methods as it was difficult for patients to find time to attend an educational session.

ADAKAH ITU: VERITAS ET IUSTITIA?
Authors: Kusumohamidjojo Budiono
Published: April 2018

Abstract

The idea of truth has gone through a path of a long history and will still be the subject of a long and complex discourse. It will even remain being the cause of violent conflicts, the more if it deals with the perception of absolute truth. The unfortunate problem befalling mankind is the fact, which is based on different perceptions of truth, let alone “absolute truth”, that a lot of people strive to uphold perfect justice as if the world has a place for such an illusion. The history of mankind has reached a stage, whereby we must learn to understand that we have to distance ourselves from thoughts of promoting absolute truth, the more if aspirations toward upholding perfect justice also piggy backs thereon. Or else the world will keep constantly embroiled in senseless conflicts, violence and wars, where people would fight each other for their respective absolute principles, while actually being unaware about its absurd logic. Therefore the newly launched journal Veritas Et Iustitia would have to confront a tremendous challenge because the editors should construct a platform for continuous dialogue leading to constructive efforts towards better understanding about truth which should be increasingly more true and justice which should be increasingly more just to be pursued by mankind.

KRITIK TERHADAP PENERAPAN PASAL 156a KUHP DITINJAU DARI PERSPEKTIF KEHIDUPAN DEMOKRASI DI INDONESIA
Authors: Dian Andriasari Dian
Published: April 2018

Since long time every application of Article 156a of the Criminal Code has always caused social tension, social situation becomes very sensitive. These conditions lead to social conflicts. The issue of religion then became a commodity in the narrative of the mass media, into a debate. In the end in some cases, it always attributes the threat of democratic life. Conflict in the name of religion also surfaced, at least social tension raised after the Judge's decision by using the article. Religion is a problem that can not be separated from what should and what is real. These two things will continue to develop whereby dialectics may occur between them. If in the past religion was seen to be close to some elements of society, there was a growing tendency to recognize the differentiation between these elements and to legitimize the division of labor between the elements. But this differentiation is not accepted by all religious communities. The state's hegemony against religion is more often the legitimacy of violence and unilateral truth claims. Debate about it then led to a lot of interpretation, cross interpretation of the dispute then led to the court using the criminal justice system approach. Here is the Law as the result of social process, which should be studied as a social reality, indicating that there is a need to broaden the perspective, meaning not only to understand the rule of law from the point of logical consistency of the rules only, but also to be viewed from aspects of the process of human relations in society both individually and institutionally. Using the sociological juridical approach, the author tries to discuss how the effect of the application of article 156a of the Criminal Code in the life of democracy in Indonesia and how the prospect of future arrangement related to the formulation of religious offense in the perspective of ius constituendum.

Published: April 2018

Objective

The objective of this study was to determine the sensitivity and accuracy of five sonographic features of Hashimoto thyroiditis (HT) in histologically confirmed cases. In addition, to determine if sonographic features can serve as a predictor of underlying malignancy.

Methods

A cohort of 101 patients who underwent thyroidectomy for malignancy or other clinical conditions with histologically confirmed HT and a pre-operative thyroid ultrasound examination were included. A retrospective analysis of sonographic features and radiology reports was conducted and comparative statistical analysis completed.

Results

Among the cohort of 101 patients, 84% demonstrated sonographic evidence of HT. The following features were used for the identification of HT: Diffuse hypoechoic echogenicity, parenchymal heterogeneity, hypoechoic micronodularity, echogenic septations, and hypervascularity. There was a female predominance (9:1) with an average age of 50 years. Among the studied sonographic features of HT, parenchymal heterogeneity was the most sensitive (88.2%) and hypervascularity was the least sensitive (17.7%). Approximately 44% of the study cohort had malignancy; papillary thyroid carcinoma was by far the most common, accounting for 89% of all malignancies. Hypoechoic micronodularity was the feature with the greatest positive predictive value (PPV) for malignancy. Nodal metastasis was less common in patients with sonographically evident HT.

Conclusion

HT is the most common cause of hypothyroidism in iodine sufficient areas of the world. Parenchymal heterogeneity and diffuse hypoechogenicity were the most sensitive sonographic features of HT. Hypoechoic micronodularity demonstrated the greatest PPV for malignancy.

Published: April 2018

The sphenoid sinus one of the posterior group of sinus, considered one of the most difficult sinuses due to its deep location in the skull. The interest in the understanding of the anatomy of the sphenoid sinus increased markedly during the last decades due to the development of endoscopic transsphenoidal approaches to the intracranial structures. The important anatomical relations of the sphenoid sinus make it one of the difficult and challenging structures for the surgeons. In this case report,we present one of the anatomical variations that was found during cadaveric dissection of the head. In this case we found abnormal bony defect in the lateral wall of the sinus,the defect closed just by the lining mucosa of the sinus and the dura from its intracranial side. A point may be of clinical importance to the related nearby structures.

risks. Who should correct misinterpretations? This editorial raises the question with an example

related to infant feeding practices and the risk of type 1diabetes. A major study found no

The effects of zinc supplementation on zinc, retinol and carotene levels in lactating Amazonian women
Authors: Shrimpton Roger , Marinho Helyde
Published: April 2018

The effects of zinc supplementation on levels of zinc, retinol and carotene in serum and breast milk were investigated in a double blind controlled prospective study amongst 66 poor urban Amazonian mothers in 1981. The mothers predominantly breast-fed their infants for the first five months of life and took supplements from soon after birth. Milk retinol levels were already significantly higher in zinc supplemented (ZS) than non-zinc supplemented (NZS) mothers by one month post-partum, and by four months had risen significantly in the ZS mothers but fallen in NZS mothers. At four months post-partum, milk retinol levels of ZS mothers were near normal and double those of NZS mothers. The effect of zinc supplementation on these retinol levels was possibly associated with an increased absorption and utilization of dietary carotene, since milk carotene levels also increased in ZS mothers to levels three times those of NZS mothers at four months post-partum. This impact of zinc supplementation on maternal and breast milk vitamin A levels has not been shown previously and is of potential relevance where zinc and vitamin A deficiency are common.

Published: April 2018

ABSTRAKElectrical Submersible Pump (ESP) merupakan salah satu sistem pumping yang digunakan dalam produksi minyak bumi dengan menggunakan motor induksi sebagai penggerak utama yang ditanamkan ke dalam sumur. Seperti yang telah diketahui bahwa kinerja sistem ESP yang digunakan di PT Baker Hughes Indonesia, berlangsung secara terus-menerus. Hal ini dapat mempengaruhi kinerja motor yang menyebabkan hasil produksi menurun. Hasil produksi minyak mentah berbeda-beda untuk masing-masing wellpad, dimana 1 wellpad terdiri dari beberapa sumur dan masing-masing sumur memiliki kedalaman yang berbeda sehingga kapasitas motor dan pompa yang digunakan berbeda pula. Kapasitas pompa sangat bergantung pada parameter sumur minyak yaitu kedalaman sumur, Total Dynamic Head (TDH), hasil produksi perjam, dan hasil produksi perhari per-TDH. Oleh karena itu, dapat ditentukan korelasi antara kapasitas Motor ESP terhadap keempat paramter sumur tersebut. Berdasarkan hasil pengolahan data dan analisis sistem diperoleh bahwa kapasitas daya motor berbanding lurus secara linier terhadap keempat parameter tersebut. Kata Kunci: ESP, wellpad, hasil produksi, kapasitas daya motor.ABSTRACTElectrical Submersible Pump (ESP) is one of the pumping system used in the production of petroleum by using an induction motor as the prime mover which are implanted into the well. As we known that the performance of the ESP system which is used in PT Baker Hughes Indonesia, has worked continuously. This can affect motor performance which led to decreased production yield. The production of crude oil varies for each well pad, that 1 well pad consists of several wells and each well has a different depth so that the capacity of the motor and pump are used differently. Pump capacity is very dependent on the parameters of the oil wells, the depth of the well, Total Dynamic Head (TDH), the hourly production and production per day per-TDH. Therefore, we can determine the correlation between the motor power againts the four well’s parameters. Based on the results of data processing and systems analysis showed that the motor power linearly proportional to the four parameters.Keywords: ESP, well pad, production, capacity motor power.

Published: April 2018

Globally, cardiovascular diseases (CVD) constitute a leading cause of mortality. Heart disease in India occurs 10 to 15 years earlier than in the west. One fifth of the deaths in India are from coronary heart disease (CHD). The global burden of disease due to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) is escalating, principally due to a sharp rise in the developing countries which are experiencing rapid health transition. More than 2000 plants have been listed in the Traditional (Herbal/Alternative) systems of medicine and some of these are providing comprehensive relief to the people suffering from cardiovascular diseases, specially “hyperlipidemia” and “ischemic heart disease”. WHO reports indicate that around eighty percent of the global population still relies on botanical drugs and several herbal medicines have advanced to clinical use in modern times. This review work explains chemical and pharmacological status of various cardioprotective plants including phytoconstituents responsible for cardioprotection, pharmacological screening model and mechanism involved in cardioprotection.

Published: April 2018

In the present study we investigated antimicrobial activity of diethyl ether and methanol extractions of bark and leaves of Ficus religiosa plant against three bacteria (E.coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aurignosa) and one fungi (Aspergillus niger). The results showed that the methanol extracts of both leaves and bark showed antimicrobial activity on three tested bacteria and no effect on A.niger. In methanol extracts S.aureus showed maximum sensitivity (inhibition zone 28mm) followed by E.coli (inhibition zone 16mm) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (inhibition zone 12mm). Diethyl ether extracts of leaves were also showed maximum inhibition on S.aureus followed by E.coli and P.aeruginosa. Both methanol and diethyl ether extracts of bark showed antimicrobial activity on three types of tested bacteria and very less inhibition activity on A.niger. But comparatively bark extracts of both the solvents were showed less antimicrobial activity than leaves extracts on the tested microbes.

Authors: Chauhan P. K. , . Rishma , Singh V. , B. Abhishek
Published: April 2018

Cigarette smoking is the serious health problems and most important avoidable cause of death in world. Worldwide more than 8 million people currently die each year from smoking half of them before of the age of 60. Every cigarette reduces the life span by about 5 minutes. Smoke contains oxidising agents and the oxidation reactions can produce free radicals. In turn, these radicals can start chain reactions that damage cells. In the present study 40 male subjects were divided into four different groups and their lipid profile have been estimated by various tests i.e. Cholesterol, Triglyceride, HDL-C, LDLC, VLDL-C. It was observed that in cigarette smokers HDL-C level decreased and cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL-C, VLDL-C level increased as compared to the control i.e. non- cigarette smokers. In case of MDA and Antioxidant enzymes test, the value of MDA increases and antioxidant enzymes decreases in cigarette smokers as compared to the control i.e. non- cigarette smokers. The variation in the level of lipid profile and antioxidant enzymes from normal values causes several diseases such as Lung cancer, other cancers, heart disease, and stroke and has numerous immediate health effects on the brain and on the respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, immune systems.

Published: April 2018

Computational methods play a central role in modern drug discovery process. It includes the design and management of small molecule libraries, initial hit identification through virtual screening, optimization of the affinity as well as selectivity of hits and improving the physicochemical properties of the lead compounds. In this review article, computational drug designing approaches have been elucidated and discussed. The key considerations and guidelines for virtual chemical library design and whole drug discovery process. Traditional approach for discovery of a new drug is a costly and time consuming affair besides not being so productive. A number of potential reasons witness choosing the In-silico method of drug design to be a more wise and productive approach. There is a general perception that applied science has not kept pace with the advances of basic science. Therefore, there is a need for the use of alternative tools to get answers on efficacy and safety faster, with more certainty and at lower cost. In-silico drug design can play a significant role in all stages of drug development from the initial lead designing to final stage clinical development.
PENDEKATAN ANALISIS REGRESI INDIVIDUAL UNTUK DATA LONGITUDINAL
Authors: Bataradewa Surianto
Published: April 2018

Classical Regression analysis are usually used in analysing longitude data or repeated measurement data (where response from each individual were measured in a period of time). Assumption of the analysis is no correlation among a couple measurement at same object. Whereas the repeated measurement data in same object research usually  have correlation. Neglecting of correlation in regresion analysis will result in an uncertain conclusion.Regression individually analysis for longitudinal data attention the influence of individual effect and its interaction with time. So that with the reason, withdrawal of conclusion will be more be trusted its truth.The research objective is to compare regression individually analysis approach for longitudinal data with classical regression analysis. Data in this research is used  simulation data.Result of research indicate that regression individually analysis to longitudinal data very success improve information about change of response from time to time..

THE EFFECTS OF TRADE LIBERALIZATION BETWEEN INDONESIA AND JAPAN: A CASE TO INDONESIAN ECONOMY
Authors: Nugroho Ario Seno
Published: April 2018

This paper examines the effects of free trade between Indonesia and Japan on agriculture and manufacturing sector, consumer welfare, and the whole economy in Indonesia using a computable general equilibrium model based on 2008 Indonesia Input-Output Table. The general theory related to the effects of free trade says domestic consumers will benefit while disadvantages domestic producers will suffer from the free trade policy. In contrast, this study found that both the domestic consumers and the domestic industries (people who work in industries) benefit from trade liberalization scenario. The consumer welfare and economics utility would also increase. Also, the model estimates the reduction in government revenue, which is caused by decreasing tariff, is lower than the addition in government revenue from non-tariff income. Finally, manufacturing sector seems has the highest benefit from trade liberalization while in the agriculture sector is estimated minor outcome

Published: April 2018

AbstractThe objective of this research is to identify dwelling time bottlenecks in green and yellow channel of importation, the bottleneck causes, and how to solve the contraints. Using theory of constraints, this study conducts five-focusing steps to solve the problems. This qualitative research takes Port of Tanjung Priok as the location to observe and invloves three groups of participant consisting of regulatory institution, port operator, and ten importers as the service users. This study concludes that the main bottleneck of dwelling time can be identified in pre-clearance process that is the lengthy time of processing and issuing importation permission of prohibitted and/or restricted goods. Some causes of the bottleneck are identified covering importers’ lack of knowledge about regulation of prohibitted and/or restricted goods, unintegrated permission process with Indonesia National Single Window, and many different technical institutions involved. The proposed solutions for the constraints faced in the port are single submission and Indonesia Single Risk Management. These solutions are considered to have ability to shorten current dwelling time.     Kata kunci: dwelling time, theory of constraints, bottleneck, Indonesia National Single Window, prohibitted and/or restricted goods AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui apa yang menjadi penghambat (bottleneck) dalam dwelling time impor jalur kuning dan jalur hijau, mengapa bottleneck terjadi, dan bagaimana mengatasi bottleneck tersebut.
