Authors: Supri Aisyah , Rachmawaty Rini , Syahrul Syahrul
Published: April 2019

Background: One of nursing management functions is organizing nursing staff through assessing their working performances. Managing nursing staff in order to improve their working performance is vital. Thus, it needs to be well-designed to meet the patients’ expectation on health care quality. Nurses’ performance is defined as the action, achievement, or fulfillment of nurses’ responsibilities based on their tasks that have been assigned to them.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to describe the nurses’ performance assessment and the nurse activities based on nursing clinical authority at the Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo hospital Makassar.

Methods: This research is a qualitative descriptive study. Data were gathered from Focus Group Discussion (FGD), individual interviews, and document analysis.

Results: The study results showed that generally the assessment of the nurses’ performances at the Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo hospital has been conducted since 2015. However, there were still some areas that need to be improved, such as the quantity indicator assessment that is currently not developed based on the nursing clinical authority. In fact, the assessment of nurses' performance for quantity indicators should be adjusted to the nursing clinical authority that has been assigned to them after completing the credentialing process as stated in the Nurse Clinical Assignment Letter.

Conclusion: The assessment of nurses’ performance should be adhered to the nursing clinical authority and it is better if hospital managers may synchronize the nursing clinical authority with the online nursing logbook provided in the Hospital Information System

Knowledge of Primigravida about the Regularity of Examination of Pregnancy in Gayaman Village, Mojokerto Regency
Authors: Mail Erfiani
Published: April 2019

Background: The high rate of maternal and infant mortality is due to the low level of knowledge of mothers and the frequency of irregular pregnancy checks.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the knowledge of primigravida mothers about the regularity of prenatal care.

Methods: This type of observational research, according to the analysis is descriptive research. The population is all primigravida mothers who examined in Gayaman Village and the sample size of 30 respondents was taken based on total sampling technique. The instrument used was a questionnaire. Data collection is done through several stages, namely editing, coding, tabulating and scoring data, data collection was carried out on August 17-21 2018 in Gayaman Village, Mojokerto Regency.

Result: The results of the general data from primigravida mothers' knowledge of the regularity of prenatal care showed that of 30 respondents less than 50% had sufficient knowledge of 9 respondents (30%). The data analysis here is enough because the education level of the respondents is lacking, so that in selecting and filtering the information received because the higher the level of education someone will influence the intellectual ability to choose information.

Conclusion: The conclusions from this study indicate that the knowledge of primigravida mothers about the regularity of prenatal care is sufficient. Therefore, it is necessary to improve communication, information and education from health workers in providing counseling on antenatal care, so that mothers understand more about the regularity of prenatal care.
Reinventing Governance from Centralisation to Decentralisation: The need for a new direction for Ghana’s local government system
Authors: Asare-Donkoh Frankie
Published: April 2019

This paper discusses Ghana’s decentralisation and local government system
vis-à-vis the District Assembly concept which has functioned since 1988. It
analyses why the system has not made the desired impact on the country’s
governance system and democratic process. It concludes that the decentralisation
system has failed to make the desired impact due to a lack of democratic
accountability and legitimacy at the grassroots level and the absence of
political will of successive governments to devolve power. It makes some
recommendations and proposals on how the system could be made more functional,
democratic and accountable to build the confidence and trust of citizens and
increase their level of participation in the democratic dispensation.
Запаси лісової підстилки приміських лісів Харківщини як основного горючого матеріалу в чистих сосняках
Authors: Ворон В. П. , Сидоренко С. Г. , Мельник Є. Є. , Коваль І. М.
Published: April 2019

Мета статті –  виявити особливості кількісних і якісних змін у лісовій підстилці чистих сосняків зелених зон міста Харків із віком, що впливають на пожежну небезпеку.

Методика дослідження. Дослідження проведено у чистих одновікових сосняках різного віку, що ростуть в умовах свіжого субору, на 9 пробних площах. На кожній пробній площі підстилку для аналізу відбирали на 9 площадках площею 1 м2 за мікрозонами – під стовбуром, на межі крони та у міжкроновому просторі. Запаси підстилки визначали зважуванням усієї маси кожного з шарів мінералізації, після чого відбирали середні зразки, які висушували у лабораторних умовах до повітряно-сухого стану. Одержані дані аналізували статистично методами варіаційної статистики, кореляційного  регресійного аналізу.

Результати дослідження. Встановлено, що товщина підстилки становила від 0,7 до 10,3 см та достовірно збільшувалася з віком насадження. Виявлено тренд  збільшення запасу лісової підстилки з віком насаджень від 172,2 до 675,9 ц/га. Виявлено, що частка нижнього гуміфікованого шару збільшується з віком, особливо інтенсивно відбувається його акумуляція з 35 до 82 років. У перестійних сосняках запас підстилки помітно мінімізується, через зниження повноти насадження та зменшення щорічного надходження хвої з опадом. Вологість підстилки достовірно відрізнялася за шарами: найнижча – в опадовому, найвища – у нижньому гуміфікованому.

Елементи наукової новизни. Вперше висвітлено закономірності накопичення та розподілу лісових горючих матеріалів у найбільш пожежонебезпечних приміських сосняках Харківщини.

Практична значущість. Прогнозування ймовірності виникнення, розвитку та поведінки пожежі є неможливим без достовірних даних щодо закономірностей накопичення різних типів лісових горючих матеріалів (ЛГМ) та динаміки їхньої вологості, тому вивчення ЛГМ є першочерговим завданням пірологічних досліджень в Україні.

As a symmetric as an asymmetric scheme requires a key (session orprivate) to be hidden. In this case, an attacker gets a chance and timefor finding and decrypting it. As long as a secret has static attributes(length, type of characters, etc.) it will always be vulnerable for anattack.We propose a new concept of keyless encryption, “Amorphicscheme”, which is semantically secured and has “Perfect Secrecy”level. It allows a secret to be transmitted over any public channel withno public or private key to be generated and stored.
POHON BINER

Salah satu penerapan teori pohon yang paling berguna dan dipakai yaitu konsep binary search tree dimana konsep ini memberikan struktur data yang memudahkan operasi pencarian, penambahan, dan penghapusan terhadap data. Operasi tersebut lebih efisien dan jauh lebih baik pada konsep ini dibanding sequential search pada senarai berkait dalam waktu eksekusi / run-time.Dari konsep binary search tree ini dikembangkan lagi suatu struktur penyimpanan data yang merupakan modifikasi dari binary search tree tersebut yaitu AVL-Tree dan Splay Tree yang masing-masing mempunyai keunggulan pada kasus tertentu yang sekarang ini sering dijumpai.AVL-Tree merupakan modifikasi binary search tree yang tinggi setiap upapohon kiri dan upapohon kanan sama atau setidaknya selisih antara keduanya tidak lebih dari 1. Keunggulan dari AVL-Tree antara lain untuk mengoptimasi pencarian data terutama untuk kasus pohon yang condong ke kiri atau ke kanan sehingga pencarian akan jauh lebih mudah apabila pohon tersebut seimbang. Kasus pohon yang condong ke kiri atau kanan itu mungkin saja terjadi terutama apabila penambahan elemen dan penghapusan elemen dilakukan terus-menerus dan tidak dapat diketahui urutannya.Sedangkan Splay-Tree justru kebalikan dari AVL-Tree yang tidak mempermasalahkan kecondongan upapohonnya namun setiap kali data diakses maka simpul dari data yang diakses tersebut akan dinaikkan keatas mendekati akar pohon. Data yang sering diakses / aktif akan berada dekat pada akar pohon sehingga data tersebut mudah Dengan demikian dapat disimpulkan bahwa penerapan teori pohon sangatlah bermanfaat dalam kajian struktur data.

Novelty rejection in episodic memory
Authors: Osth Adam F , Zhou Aspen , Lilburn Simon , Little Daniel R.
Published: April 2019

Episodic memory theories have postulated that in recognition, a probe is accepted or rejected on the basis of its global similarity to studied items. Mewhort and Johns (2000) directly tested global similarity predictions by manipulating the feature compositions of probes -- novelty rejection was facilitated when probes contained novel features even when other features strongly matched, an advantage dubbed the extralist feature effect, which greatly challenged global matching models. In this work, we conducted similar experiments using continuously-valued separable- and integral-dimension stimuli. Analogs of extralist lures were constructed where one stimulus dimension contained a value that was more novel than the other dimensions while overall similarity was equated to another class of lures. Facilitated novelty rejection for lures with extralist features was only found for separable-dimension stimuli. While integral-dimension stimuli were well described by a global matching model, the model failed to account for extralist feature effects with separable-dimension stimuli. We applied global matching models -- including variants of the exemplar-based linear ballistic accumulator (EB-LBA) -- that employed different means of novelty rejection afforded by separable-dimension stimuli, including decisions based on the global similarity of the individual dimensions and selective attention being directed toward novel probe values (a diagnostic attention model). While these variants produced the extralist feature effect, only the diagnostic attention model succeeded in providing a sufficient account of all of the data. The model was also able to account for extralist feature effects in an experiment with discrete features similar to those from Mewhort and Johns (2000).

Race, Ethnicity, and the Future of Work
Authors: Moradi Pegah
Published: April 2019

Leading up to and following the 2016 American presidential election, “White working class” employment and political agency has become particularly salient. A simultaneous discussion on the role of automation in unemployment complicates the political narrative; by one estimate, 47% of American jobs are at risk of computerization (Frey and Osborne, 2013). This study analyzes how occupational automation corresponds with racial and ethnic demographics within occupational groups from both a historical and contemporary perspective. I find that throughout American industrialization, non-White and immigrant workers shifted to low-wage, unskilled work because of the political and social limitations imposed upon these groups. In the context of today’s AI-driven automation, I find that White workers are more heavily affected by automatability than other racial groups. Conversely, however, I found that the proportion of White workers in an occupation is negatively correlated with an occupation’s automatability. I conclude with suggestions for a susceptibility-based approach to predicting employment outcomes from AI-driven automation.
Hierarchies of Categorical Disadvantage: Economic Insecurity at the Intersection of Disability, Gender, and Race
Authors: Maroto Michelle Lee , Pettinicchio David , Patterson Andrew
Published: April 2019

Intersectional feminist scholars emphasize how overlapping systems of oppression structure gender inequality, but in focusing on the gendered, classed, and racialized bases of stratification, many often overlook disability as an important social category in determining economic outcomes. This is a significant omission given that disability severely limits opportunities and contributes to cumulative disadvantage. We draw from feminist disability and intersectional theories to account for how disability intersects with gender, race, and education to produce economic insecurity. The findings from our analyses of 2015 American Community Survey data provide strong empirical support for hierarchies of disadvantage, where women and racial minority groups with disabilities and less education experience the highest poverty levels, report the lowest total income, and have a greater reliance on sources outside the labor market for economic security. By taking disability into account, our study demonstrates how these multiple characteristics lead to overlapping oppressions that become embedded and reproduced within the larger social structure.
Hospitality to Others Rooted in an Ecclesiology of the Baptized People of God
Authors: Shaw C. Pierson
Published: April 2019

[Figure: see text]

If the Church is considered to be an assembly of the baptized people of Christ’s body, then that structure necessarily compels members of that body to be mindful of the plight of the displaced: refugees, immigrants, sojourners, trafficked people, strangers, victims of crisis, marginalized migrants, and, in fact, anyone seeking justice and safety. In this context, there is a biblical imperative to action, compelling baptized people to show justice and mercy in times of crises. This imperative often gets overlooked, especially in recent days with the migrant crises created by the Trump administration with respect to the southern US border. This article maps out different global/historical situations of immigrant crises to provide a context for the current situation. It offers background on the contempt shown by the US president’s migrant policy and then correlates and advances biblical imperatives, especially as given by the New Testament and along Pauline lines. It argues for spelling out a reminder: government is an agent of God in the natural law order. And, from a Christian perspective, Church leaders and baptized people of God have an obligation to live out a call to love in the form of an ecclesiology of hospitality. That is, God’s covenant with the baptized people implies an enabling directive to the Church, its leaders, and the body of Christ to advocate for migrants and victims amid the escalating crises created by government policies that show contempt for migrants and their families.
“You can’t be up there” – youth cultural participation and appropriation of space
Authors: Andersson Björn , Mengilli Yağmur , Pohl Axel , Reutlinger Christian
Published: April 2019

This article investigates the relationship between youth cultural practices and young people’s spatial appropriation. For this purpose, we analyse case studies into groups of young people involved in two forms of practices that are marked by particular perceptions of the (urban) space: two Parkour groups and a Scouts group. The questions we are dealing with concern the way to which young members of these groups are appropriating ‘free space’ through participating in activities like the Scouts or Parkour. Furthermore, this article also explores important questions concerning processes of how young people’s participation in urban areas should be understood and what consequences this understanding has for youth policy.
Tail convergences of pullback attractors for asymptotically converging multi-valued dynamical systems

In this paper we study pullback attractors of multi-valued dynamical systems that are asymptotically convergent. It is shown that, under certain conditions, the components of the pullback attractor of a dynamical system can converge in time to those of the pullback attractor of the limiting dynamical system. Particular examples are asymptotically autonomous and asymptotically periodic pullback attractors. Different criteria theorems requiring different conditions are established and their applicability and advantages are highlighted.
Beneficial effects of high-fiber diet on the expression and level of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 of hypercholesterolemia rats
Authors: Danuyanti I Gusti Ayu Nyoman , Farmawati Arta , Sunarti
Published: April 2019

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:

Hypercholesterolemia triggered by high-fat and high-fructose diets increases Reactive Oxygen Species production, causing oxidative stress and increasing the expression of Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in endothelial cells as a form of inflammatory response. High-fiber diet could restrict lipolysis in adipose tissue, decreasing the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines while indirectly decreasing the expression of ICAM-1.

METHODS:

The research analyzed beneficial effects of high-fiber diet divided into five groups: normal (N); hypercholesterolemia (HC); HC + 1.04 g fiber/rat/day (HFD1); HC + 2.07 g fiber/rat/day (HFD2) and HC + 3.11 g fiber/rat/day (HFD3) for 6-weeks intervention on the level and expression of ICAM-1 in rats induced by high-fat and high-fructose diets.

RESULTS:

The administration of a high-fiber diet reduced the levels of ICAM-1 plasma hypercholesterolemia rats (HFD1, HFD2 and HFD3) when compared with the hypercholesterolemia group ( p <  0.001) without fiber administration. In addition, the administration of a high-fiber diet also decreased ICAM-1 gene expression in rat adipose tissue when compared with the hypercholesterolemia group ( p <  0.05). The decreased plasma levels of ICAM-1 were not correlated with the reduced ICAM-1 gene expression in rat adipose tissue after administration of a high-fiber diet.

CONCLUSIONS:

The high-fiber diet administration was able to decrease expression and level of ICAM-1 in hypercholesterolemia rats induced by high-fat and high-fructose diets.

Authors: Fiore Valerio , Capraro Michele , Ragusa Rosalia , Godos Justyna , Mistretta Antonio , Marranzano Marina
Published: April 2019

BACKGROUND:

Limited data are available regarding the association between dietary habits and metabolic outcomes in post-menopausal women living in Italy.

OBJECTIVE:

To investigate the relation between adherence to the Mediterranean diet and prevalence of overweight/obesity, type-2 diabetes, hypertension and dyslipidemias in a sample of post-menopausal women.

METHODS:

Data on 499 women were extracted from a population-based representative sample collected in Sicily, southern Italy. High adherence to the Mediterranean diet was defined as being in the highest quartile of a score used to calculate the level of adherence in the entire cohort.

RESULTS:

Only 15.8% ( n = 83) of the study sample was found to have high adherence to the Mediterranean diet; these individuals were less likely to be overweight [odds ratio (OR) = 0.52, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.31–0.86] and obese (OR = 0.38, 95% CI: 0.18–0.78) as well as having dyslipidemias (OR = 0.50, 95% CI: 0.30–0.84). Among individual components of the Mediterranean diet adherence score used, obesity was inversely associated with fruit component, type-2 diabetes with cereals and olive oil, hypertension with fruit and dairy products, dyslipidemias with legumes and dairy products.

CONCLUSIONS:

Higher adherence to the Mediterranean diet was associated with better metabolic status in post-menopausal women.
Religion as a natural product of the unconscious
Authors: Bychatin S. V.
Published: April 2019

The nature of religion, its essence for centuries agitated the minds of many thinkers, theologians and religious scholars. As you know, some people saw in it a fantastic reflection of the abstract individual of his being, while others, especially the theologians, saw in it a certain theurgical power that determines the attitude of man to higher moral will, and so on. In general, these and similar approaches to religion, in the best case, more or less successfully fixing some of its features or parties, do not yet give an idea of ​​its integrity. Today, many of its definitions, formal and logical definitions are known, but for the most part they are not perfect, one-sided or simply false, because they do not rely on the essential in the religious phenomenon.

Early Heyen (794 - 901) is interesting for religious scholars for at least two reasons. First, at this time in Japan there is an independent professional philosophy (Buddhist in nature). Second, at this time the formation of the first of three religious-cultural-sociopolitical syntheses, which highlights in the history of the religions of Japan Dzh.Kitagava - the synthesis of Ritsurio: "paradigmatic form of immanent theocracy", ends. The religious and philosophical culture of early Heyana is a complex, multi-layered phenomenon. Its basis was the linguistic conceptualization of the world of classical Japanese and, to some extent, classical Chinese, as well as mythological representations, inherited mostly from archaic times. On this basis, ideas developed from the continent in the previous period - Confucian, Buddhist, Taoist, who managed to get well here for three hundred years (from VI to VIII century.) Developed.

Authors: Yatchenko V.
Published: April 2019

The postulate of the decisive role of social factors in the formation of a way of life, the creation of a spiritual climate and the general semantic field of culture has long and firmly entered in our literature as universally recognized. At the same time it is worth noting the fact that the prevalence of the use of this category in research works oftencombined with its meaningful blurriness, indistinctness. The point is that the category of "social factors" or "social factors" is a commonplace, abstraction, which in different cultural systems and in different historical situations, present themselves very different from each other phenomena
Social Church doctrines as anthropological basis of modern Christian preaching
Authors: Zhalovaga A. S.
Published: April 2019

Christian preaching, the main purpose of which is to educate a person in the spirit of the Christian worldview, should answer the questions of the present, give believers concrete recommendations and patterns of behavior in life situations. At the same time, the sermon is based not on the personal opinion of a priest or pastor, but expresses a confessional point of view on one or another problem of modern life facing believers. This point of view, as a rule, is formulated in special documents of confessions, the totality of which is called "Social doctrine of the church".
Unicual two-vector theory of "Moscow-III Rome" and "The Notes of Mysail" in the historical context of the second half of the XV century
Authors: Shevchenko Vitaliy Volodymyrovych
Published: April 2019

The categorical rejection of the Ferrara-Florence Union by the Moscow leadership, as sometimes restrained, is sometimes unconcerned, but in general, the positive attitude towards the communist act of unification of the Orthodox and Catholic Churches from the side of the ruling circles of the Commonwealth is a fact that is undeniable and scientifically irrefutable. However, not all of those who have been guarding the ideological support for this self-evident nature for more than half a century are prepared to take into account the positional distinction that touches the intra-Orthodox sphere. Therefore, I would like to present an account of the explanation of the factors that brought about the theory of "Moscow - III Rome" to life, and also led to the emergence of "Letters of Misail".
Religious issue in the activities of the party of Ukrainian radical-democrats (1905-1930's).
Authors: Strilets V. V.
Published: April 2019

The Ukrainian Democratic-Radical Party (UDRP) was formed as a result of the unification of the Ukrainian Democratic and Ukrainian radical party in 1905. Regarding religious affairs, the UDRP program required the separation of the Church from the state and the election of the clergy that was traditional for Ukraine. The party's foundations were local communities that existed autonomously and often raised and resolved on their own. In January, 1905, the Odessa community asked the Russian government to ensure the freedom to use the Ukrainian language in the church.
Work in the system of vital senses of Ivan Ogienko
Authors: Nedzelsky K.
Published: April 2019

"In the sweat of your face you will eat bread" - this well-known biblical imperative from the Book of Genesis is best suited to the general characteristics of the life path of the famous Ukrainian scholar and theologian Ivan Ivanovich Ogienko, also known as Metropolitan Ilarion (1882-1972). All his long enough life, from early childhood to his death, he worked for the benefit of his native Ukrainian people, expressing his hard work one of the most significant of his existential traits. Maybe that's why Christianity came to the liking of the ancient ancestors of Ukrainians, who called for individualization through the hard work they never frightened, because they found in it not only livelihood but also the joy of unlucky fate. In the image of his widowed and hard-working mother, Ivan Ogienko saw the fate of the entire enslaved Ukraine and, from an early age, firmly believed that only a conscientious work for the good of his people could earn the right to God's reward. "Serve the people, then serve God!" became the main life principle of I. Ogienko, the amazing hard work of which requires a separate and meticulous scientific research.

Modern charismatic churches and national interests of the Ukrainian state
Authors: Pavlenko Pavlo Yuriyovych
Published: April 2019

The upsurge in non-traditional, including non-Christian, confessions in Ukrainian society is due to a number of factors. To a certain extent, the conversion of a part of Ukrainians to non-traditional religiosity is due to the crisis of social and political life, the transformation of ideological landmarks and the impairment of the ideological guidance of the previous system of values. Crisis phenomena did not bypass the traditional and religious sphere of society, which erupted in the crisis of traditional churches. As a result, the latter were in a state of internecine confrontation and ideological hostility, the struggle for the sphere of influence on the public. This is noticeably reflected in the mind of the believer. Insufficient attention of the clergy of traditional churches to religious requests of a person, often quite formal conduct of ritual ceremonies, inappropriate behavior of the clergyman constitute prerequisites for the transition of the ordinary believer into the womb of non-traditional religiosity, in the hope of finding the necessary personal religious comfort there.

Studying on the in vitro shoot formation of Opuntia ficus – indica (L.) Mill.
Authors: Thi Cam Duyen Nguyen , Trang Viet Bui , Thanh Huong Tran
Published: April 2019

This study presented the elimination of the glochids in the areoles of Opuntia ficus-indica cladode induced the shoot formation from the explants containing the shoot apical meristem (SAM) on Murashige and Skoog medium (MS) supplemented with 6-benzylaminopurine (BA) 5 mg/L. Morphological and physiological changes in shoot formation process were analyzed. This process involved the constant stages: activation of cell division, initiating of meristematic region; formation of shoot primordium and shoot with leaves. The SAM position in the upper front of the cladode gave the highest shoot productivity. This position had the photosynthesis rate, respiration rate, endogenous indole acetic acid (IAA) and zeatin activity higher than the others. Difference of auxin concentrations increased the amount of shoots and shoot height. The maximum number of shoots per explant was obtained on MS medium supplemented with BA 5 mg/L and 1-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) 0.5 mg/L. The elimination of SAM by removing the surface of the shoot gave the highest number of the shoot. The correlation of the glochids in the areoles, explant position, plant hormones, photosynthesis rate respiration rate and shoot formation were discussed.
