Authors: Harismayanti Harismayanti , Retni Ani , Asnawati Rini
Published: June 2023

Latak Belakang : Inisiasi menyusu dini direkomendasikan oleh WHO segera setelah bayi lahir. Inisiasi menyusu dini (IMD) bukan program ibu menyusui bayi, akan tetapi bayi yang harus aktif menemukan sendiri puting susu ibu. Hal ini dilakukan dengan cara langsung meletakkan bayi baru lahir di dada ibunya dan membiarkan bayi ini merayap untuk menemukan puting susu ibu. IMD harus dilakukan saat lahir tanpa boleh di tunda dengan kegiatan menimbang atau mengukur bayi. Proses ini berlangsung skin to skin antara ibu dan bayi.Tujuan :Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui Gambaran Penatalaksanaan Inisiasi Menyusu Dini (IMD) Pada Bayi Baru Lahir Normal di RSUD dr. Hasri Ainun Habibie Gorontalo.Metode : Desain penelitian yang digunakan yaitu penelitian deskriptif dengan menggunakan teknik sampel total sampling dengan jumlah sampel 15 responden.Hasil : Hasil penelitian menunjukkan Gambaran Penatalaksanaan Inisiasi Menyusu Dini (IMD) Pada Bayi Baru Lahir Normal di RSUD dr. Hasri Ainun Habibie Gorontalo diketahui bahwa dari 15 responden di peroleh sebanyak 5 responden dilakukan IMD sesuai prosedur (33.3%) dan 10 responden tidak dilakukan sesuai prosedur (66.7%). Hasil penelitian ini diharapkan dapat bermanfaat bagi instansi kesehatan dalam memberikan pelayanan yang baik, khususnya dalam mendukung program pemerintah dalam penatalaksanaan inisiasi menyusu dini (IMD) sesuai standar operasional prosedur.

A Recent Advantage on Gastroretentive Drug Delivery System: An Overview
Authors: Patel Kamlesh , Chouksey Rajendra
Published: June 2023

In recent years, gastro-retentive drug delivery system (GRDDS) has gained researcher’s interest in the field of oral drug delivery. Various GRDDS approaches can be utilized to retain the dosage forms in the stomach and to release the drug slowly for an extended period of time. GRDDS can be used to prolong the residence time of delivery system in the stomach. This results in targeting of drug release at a specific site for the systemic or local effects. GRDDS can be used to overcome challenges associated with conventional oral dosage forms and to release the drug at a specific absorption site to improve bioavailability of particular drug substance. The challenges include fast gastric emptying of the dosage form which results in the poor bioavailability of the drug. Prolongation of the retention of drugs in stomach those having low solubility at high intestinal pH improves the solubility of drugs. GRDDS has proved to be effective in systemic actions as well as in local actions to treat gastric or duodenal ulcers. Local activity in the upper part of the small intestine can be obtained by improving the residence time of delivery system in the stomach. The system is useful for drugs which are unstable in the intestine or having a low solubility/permeability in the small intestine. Various GRDDS approaches include high density (sinking) systems, low-density (floating systems), muco-adhesive, expandable, unfold able, super porous hydrogel systems, and magnetic systems.

Published: June 2023

Effective ocular medication administration is still a difficulty for pharmaceutical scientists in the current drug delivery situation, despite various scientific endeavours. In the ocular drug delivery system, several topical medication applications in the form of solutions, suspensions, and ointments are used to treat eye infections. As a result of several anatomical and pathophysiological barriers present in the eye, many conventional dose forms have issues with poor ocular bioavailability due to short ocular residence times. Many recent available medications have weak solubility, which causes key challenges during formulation and exhibits poor bioavailability. The issue is significantly more complicated for medications that fall under BCS Class II. Nanotechnology is utilised to increase the solubility and bioavailability of poorly soluble medications in order to solve these issues. This review provides an insight into an overview of ocular challenges to anterior section delivery and strategies for removing these obstacles using nanocarrier technology. In addition to addressing the issues of poor solubility and bioavailability, nanosuppension also impacts the pharmacokinetics of the drug, enhancing its efficacy and safety.

Effective measures to combat healthcare-associated infections are directly dependent on a thorough study of the prerequisites for their occurrence. The purpose of the study is to analyze healthcare-associated infections in the Ruse region of Bulgaria by medical facilities and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on them for 2014-2021. Materials and methods: The study covers the registration of patients who were served and registered healthcare-associated infections sorted by year in all medical facilities (9 units) in the district. The data was collected from the system for epidemiological surveillance of hospitals, and the analysis of the country and Ruse region and the analysis of the Ruse Regional Health Inspectorate. Documentary, statistical, and graphic methods are used. Results and discussion: The data show that the number of patients served in the district in 2014-2021 increased (71,501 people in 2014), with small fluctuations in 2017, among which it fell to the initial level of 71,014 for 2021. There are data on the influence of the population structure and the workload of medical facilities. One of the hospitals - University Multiprofile Hospital for Active Treatment "Kanev" JSC, Ruse accounts for almost half of the patients admitted for treatment. Reported cases of healthcare-associated infections in the region by year show holding at one level, with no sharp fluctuations until 2019. A link has been established between the increasing incidence of COVID-19 and registered healthcare-associated infections in 2020 and 2021.

Actitud ante el aborto terapéutico por causas infecciosas en estudiantes de la carrera de medicina de UNIANDES Ecuador 2022
Authors: Tubón Usca Irvin Ricardo
Published: June 2023

Infection is the third most common cause of pregnancy-related mortality worldwide, accounting for approximately 10.7% of pregnancy-related deaths in low- and middle-income countries, and 4.7% of all deaths in high-income countries. The incidence of puerperal sepsis has increased over the last decade, in some cases doubling with increasing rates of severe sepsis contributing to mortality. Faced with this situation, future new doctors must have clear concepts related to therapeutic abortion resulting from infections, since they could compromise the health of the pregnant patient and be accused of malpractice, and on the other hand, they must be attentive to the laws and policies of each country in order not to violate them. In this sense, a descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out between January and June 2022 on 105 medical students in the last years of their studies to find out the attitude of the students towards therapeutic abortion due to infection, through the application of 2 measurement instruments measurement. The first questionnaire is a Semantic Differential and the second questionnaire is a Likert Type Scale. The results revealed that the adjectives used in the Sematic Differential and Likert-type questionnaires showed a high development of the attitude of medical students related to the practice of therapeutic abortions, keeping in mind the health of the patient and being vigilant of the specific laws, in this case of Ecuador.

Efficient Implementations of High-Order Finite Elements with the deal.II Library
Authors: Kronbichler Martin
Published: June 2023

My talk will present experiences and insights from the development of high-performance matrix-free operator evaluation algorithms with the deal.II finite element library. Originally, our efforts have concentrated on hexahedral finite elements, where integrals can be computed very efficiently with sum factorization techniques, but we have also looked into other element shapes recently, motivated by encouraging results from the Nektar++ team. The resulting implementations come with an arithmetic intensity of one to five Flop/byte, with memory transfer primarily due to the access into input and output vectors as well as some geometry or variable coefficient data. This enables a cost per degree of freedom that is almost constant for a broad range of polynomial degrees of cell and face integrals of high order continuous and discontinuous finite elements, and allows to select the polynomial degree as a parameter to trade against mesh generation limitations. From a hardware perspective, the Flop/byte ratio suggests that memory bandwidth is the main performance limit on many CPU and GPU architectures. Furthermore, many downstream solvers, such as multigrid smoothers, explicit time stepping, or conjugate gradient solvers, are now no longer dominated by the matrix-vector products, and vector operations need to be explicitly taken into consideration as well. My talk will show the effect of algorithmic optimizations on fluid dynamics simulations on massively parallel computers.
Revitalizing the Political Avant-garde of the “Absurd” in Eugene Ionesco’s Rhinoceros and Harold Pinter’s The Room
Authors: Chatterjee Abhinaba
Published: June 2023

This article considers the political possibilities of the avant-garde in the experimental “absurd” plays of Eugene Ionesco’s Rhinoceros and Harold Pinter’s The Room that endeavor to depict the senselessness of life, reducing plot and characters to a bare minimum. While the popular interpretation of the plays has been made against the ideological exhaustion of post–World War Europe and America and hence with the philosophy of existentialism, this article analyzes the two plays in terms of the tension with contemporary ideologies that continue to inform our present lives. One prominent mode of creating this tension is minimization of the communication between the actors, director, and the audience in order to create a misinterpretation of the purpose of communication. The article argues that the element of the avant-garde is revitalized in such studies dealing with existential angst, Marxist orientation of Ionesco or Pinter’s commentary on racism, and can be properly interpreted by an appreciation of the multiple modernities that the plays inhabit.
The Zen-inflected Cosmological Imaginations of William Carlos Williams and Alan Watts
Authors: Azambuja Enaiê Mairê
Published: June 2023

The effervescent cultural scene of the West Coast in the 1950s—particularly regarding movements such as the San Francisco Renaissance and the Beat Generation—was influenced by Eastern thought and religious practices. These were disseminated by figures such as the Japanese scholar D.T. Suzuki and the Bay Area-based and self-proclaimed “philosophical entertainer” Alan Watts. Along with Watts, another influential figure for the West Coast poets—having even served as mentor to Allen Ginsberg—was William Carlos Williams. This essay argues that, influenced by Zen Buddhist principles, both Williams and Watts propose a vision of the imagination as a cosmological force capable of merging the material and transcendental dimensions of reality. This essay suggests that Williams’s and Watts’s concepts and their understanding of Zen Buddhist ideas deeply affected the works of the West Coast poets and laid the foundations for their cross-cultural interests as well as their experimentation with poetics and spirituality.

Published: June 2023

Background: The rates of guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) prescription for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) in Asia remain sub-optimal. The primary objective of this study was to examine HFrEF polypill eligibility in the context of measured baseline prescription rates of individual components of GDMT among participants with HFrEF in Asia.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of 4,868 patients with HFrEF from the multi-national ASIAN-HF registry was performed, and 3,716 patients were included in the final, complete case analysis. Eligibility for a HFrEF polypill, upon which patients were grouped and characterized, was based on the following: left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVEF < 40% on baseline echocardiography), systolic blood pressure ≥ 100 mm Hg, heart rate ≥ 50 beats/minute, eGFR ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73 m, and serum potassium ≤ 5.0 mEq/L. Regression analyses were performed to evaluate associations of the baseline sociodemographic factors with HFrEF polypill eligibility.
Results: Among 3,716 patients with HFrEF in the ASIAN-HF registry, 70.3% were eligible for a HFrEF polypill. HFrEF polypill eligibility was significantly higher than baseline rates of triple therapy prescription of GDMT across sex, all studied geographical regions, and income levels. Patients were more likely to be eligible for a HFrEF polypill if they were younger and male, with higher BMI and systolic blood pressure, and less likely to be eligible if they were from Japan and Thailand.
Conclusion: The majority of patients with HFrEF in ASIAN-HF were eligible for a HFrEF polypill and were not receiving conventional triple therapy. HFrEF polypills may be a feasible and scalable implementation strategy to help close the treatment gap among patients with HFrEF in Asia.

Published: June 2023

Introduction: Monkeypox is a viral illness caused by an enveloped double-stranded DNA virus that belongs to the genus orthopoxvirus in the Poxviridae family. Until now, available data on the perinatal outcomes in pregnant people with monkeypox infection acquired in pregnancy are still limited.

Case Report: We report a case of a 33-year-old pregnant woman with monkeypox virus infection confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of skin lesions. She had a spontaneous preterm delivery at 32 weeks’ gestation. The monkeypox skin lesions occurred at 20 weeks’ gestation, cleared at 24 weeks’ gestation, and the infant was well at birth with no evidence of monkeypox infection.

Conclusion: This case report underlines the possible association between monkeypox virus infection acquired in pregnancy and preterm birth, which is a leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality.

Introduction: The emotions experienced by man on a daily basis and how they affect the human psychological is what determines the quality of the so-called mental health. This condition is related to complete physical, mental and social well-being and not just in the presence or absence of disease. Society has been experiencing a growing process of medicalization, especially in the use of psychotropic drugs, drugs that act on the Central Nervous System. University students and, in particular, medical students are more likely to use these drugs in search of better academic performance and stress relief, although this habit can impact mental health. Objective: To analyze mental health, the use of psychotropic drugs and associated factors in medical students. Methodology: This is a cross-sectional and analytical study carried out in the North of Minas Gerais. Data collection took place in a sample of 286 students enrolled in the medical course of a higher education institution in the north of Minas Gerais. Data were collected in structured face-to-face interviews with the aim of evaluating the use of psychotropic drugs. The State Trait Anxiety Inventory (IDATE-E) and the simplified ABEP social classifier were used as a basis for the elaboration of the questionnaire. Results: It was observed in the sample of 286 participants that there is an increased chance of using psychotropic drugs among students in the 3rd and 4th year of the course. In addition, there was an increase in the use of psychotropic drugs, especially in individuals who have depressive symptoms. Conclusion: Careful attention is needed from those involved in the learning process of medical students in relation to the use of psychotropic drugs by these students, especially in the last periods of the course before the internship, due to the greater propensity to use medication, anxiety symptoms and panic.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized various fields, including healthcare, by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, treatment planning, and patient care. In the field of oral medicine, AI has emerged as a powerful tool with the potential to transform dental practice and improve patient outcomes. This study aims to investigate the perceptions and attitudes of dentists towards the integration of AI in oral medicine. A sample size of 200 dentists was recruited for this study. A structured questionnaire was developed to gather data on their knowledge, experience, and opinions regarding AI in oral medicine. The questionnaire included items related to dentists' familiarity with AI technologies, perceived benefits and challenges of AI integration, and their willingness to adopt AI in their practice. Analysis of the data revealed that the majority of dentists had a basic understanding of AI and its applications in oral medicine. They recognized the potential of AI to improve diagnostic accuracy, streamline treatment planning, and enhance patient communication. However, concerns were raised regarding the reliability of AI algorithms, data security and privacy, and the potential impact on the dentist-patient relationship. The study findings indicate a generally positive attitude towards the integration of AI in oral medicine among the surveyed dentists.
The Usage of Direct Method in Learning Arabic at Home
Authors: Hamidin Norfaezah Mohd
Published: June 2023

Arabic language is amongst one of the most important languages in the world. Its importance is accentuated in the business world as Arab countries are known for their economic prowess and ingenuity. In the Muslim world, learning Arabic becomes farḍu ʿayn or compulsory because it is the crux of the Islamic religion which uses the Quran as its main reference for guidance.  Learning Arabic strengthens the understanding of the Quran and Hadith. Children in Malaysia are now learning Arabic in schools but the teaching and learning of Arabic is limited in the classroom and hardly used outside school. Consequently, the learning of the Arabic language is not so successful in Malaysia because this language is taught using Bahasa Melayu as a medium. Hence, drastic steps must be taken by parents to encourage the use of the language outside the classroom using the direct method. Syllabus should be revised to include the use of Arabic language as communication language.  Hopefully, this step will propel the successful learning of Arabic language as a second language in Malaysia.

Kajian pembelajaran bahasa Perancis (BP) sebagai bahasa asing (BA) ini menfokuskan kepada kemahiran penulisan BP. Pembelajaran BA memerlukan pelajar menguasai kemahiran berkomunikasi dan juga kemahiran penulisan. Penguasaan tatabahasa asas BP dengan baik dapat membantu dalam kemahiran penulisan bahasa sasaran dengan baik. Kajian ini terbatas kepada kemahiran penulisan ayat mudah BP dalam kalangan pelajar dengan menganalisis kesalahan dalam hasil penulisan mereka. Manakala 50 orang pelajar BP 1 (WFD10101) dari Universiti Kuala Lumpur Malaysia France Institute (UniKL MFI) telah dipilih sebagai responden kajian. Dapatan kajian dianalisis secara kualitatif dan kuantitatif. Lokasi kajian adalah UniKL MFI. Kajian analisis dokumen ini menggunakan karangan dari skrip jawapan bahagian A, soalan 11 Ujian akhir BP 1. Hasil penulisan pelajar dianalisis melalui Taksonomi Kesilapan Dulay, Burt dan Krashen (1982) untuk mengenal pasti kesalahan dan kesilapan pelajar dalam pembinaan ayat mudah BP. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan pelajar lebih cenderung melakukan kesalahan penggunaan kata preposisi, diikuti oleh kata kerja, kata nama dan kata adjektif. Kesalahan ini berlaku kerana pelajar kurang pengetahuan tatabahasa asas BP. Tambahan pula status BP sebagai BA di Malaysia, terdapat perbezaan dari segi tatabahasa, struktur ayat BP dan Bahasa Malaysia. Maka, faktor inilah punca responden melakukan kesalahan dalam penulisan dan seterusnya melakukan kesilapan penambahan, pengurangan dan pemilihan dalam ayat BP.

This research aims to scrutiny the adverse effects of the negligence of metaphoric meaning. The research went through analytical and critical methods. The research discovers breaching of Ijmāʿ, violation of the Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah and the illusion of the conflict between the revealed texts are negative effects of the negligence of the metaphorical meaning in the understanding of the Hadith.
 
الملخص
إن فهم الحديث النبوي على وجه صحيح أمر لا يستغني عنه عالم من علماء المسلمين. ومن القواعد التي تضمن صحة فهم الحديث هي فهم الحديث هي الالتفات إلى المعنى المجازي. وقد انتشرت في هذا العصر الفتاوى الشاذة يبدأ العاقل المنصف بالبحث عن سبب هذا العوج التفسيري فيجد أن بعض أسباب ذلك إهمال المجاز في فهم الحديث النبوي. فهذا البحث يهدف إلى بيان الآثار السلبية من إهمال المجاز. وقد سلك البحث المنهج التحليلي والنقدي. اكتشف البحث عن الآثار السلبية من إهمال المعنى المجازي في فهم الحديث وهي مخالفة الإجماع ومخالفة المقاصد الشرعية وتوهم إيقاع التعارض بين النصوص الشرعية.
