Authors: Mutaqin Bachtiar W. , Alwi Mulyadi , Adalya Natasya Michelle
Published: December 2021

Pantai di Desa Parangtritis, Yogyakarta termasuk dalam prioritas pengembangan pariwisata daerah berdasarkan Peraturan Daerah DIY Nomor 1 tahun 2019 dengan jumlah wisatawan yang mencapai 2,8 juta orang pada tahun 2019. Di sisi lain, data dari BPBD Kabupaten Bantul dan SAR Satlinmas Wilayah III Parangtritis tahun 2009-2015 menunjukkan tingginya jumlah korban arus retas. Oleh karena itu, perlu adanya suatu upaya identifikasi dan penyampaian informasi kepada wisatawan terkait dengan keberadaan arus retas di pantai-pantai yang ada di Desa Parangtritis. Identifikasi keberadaan arus retas dilakukan pada dua waktu yang berbeda, yaitu pada musim timur dan musim barat, dengan melakukan interpretasi visual melalui citra satelit dan memperhatikan keberadaan gisik tanduk maupun zona pecah gelombang yang terpotong. Hal tersebut dikarenakan morfologi pantai dapat berubah sebagai respon dari musim yang berdampak pada aktivitas gelombang, arus, dan pasang surut yang berbeda pula. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis morfologi, morfometri, dan morfoaransemen untuk menemukenali keberadaan, tipe, sirkulasi, dan bahaya arus retas di Pantai Parangtritis. Kemunculan 11 lokasi arus retas pada saat bulan Agustus/musim timur lebih tersebar secara merata di sepanjang pantai di Desa Parangtritis dibandingkan dengan 12 lokasi saat bulan April/musim barat. Arus retas di Desa Parangtritis sangat dinamis sehingga perlu adanya upaya diseminasi informasi bahaya arus retas pada wisatawan dan pelaku wisata sebagai salah satu tindakan mitigasi dan pengurangan risiko bencana di Desa Parangtritis.

Authors: Jibran Isham , Astuti Sola Tri , Nucifera Fitria
Published: December 2021

Kawasan Perkotaan Yogyakarta mencakup seluruh wilayah Kota Yogyakarta dan sebagian Kabupaten Sleman serta Bantul. Setiap tahunnya penggunaan lahan mengalami perubahan terutama pada Kawasan Perkotaan Yogyakarta, disertai dengan perubahan intensitas hujan. Penelitian ini berfokus pada hubungan perubahan penggunaan lahan dengan volume runoff. Perubahan penggunaan lahan diklasifikasikan menggunakan metode unsupervised berdasarkan citra Landsat 5 dan 8 dengan interval 5 tahunan (2008, 2013, dan 2018). Volume runoff maksimum dikalkulasi menggunakan metode SCS-CN. Hubungan kedua hasil tersebut dianalisis dengan metode korelasi Pearson. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa selama tahun 2008 – 2018 luas lahan terbangun meningkat sebanyak 19,5% dari 11.755,6 ha pada tahun 2008 menjadi 14.059,5 ha pada tahun 2018. Volume runoff mengalami peningkatan sebanyak 76,6% dari 7.268,68 m3 pada tahun 2008 menjadi 12.837,63 m3 pada tahun 2018.  Hal tersebut dibuktikan dengan tingginya signifikansi hasil nilai korelasi dibawah 5% dengan t- hitung lebih besar dari t-tabel. Korelasi Y menunjukkan jika lahan terbangun bertambah 100 ha maka terdapat kenaikan volume runoff sebanyak 76.09 m3. Korelasi Y untuk lahan terbuka jika bertambah 100 ha maka terdapat kenaikan volume runoff sebanyak 59.27 m3. Pada lahan vegetasi, jika luas lahan vegetasi bertambah 100 ha, volume runoff akan bertambah 54 m3. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa semakin luas penggunaan lahan terbangun maka volume runoff juga semakin besar.

Published: December 2021

The differential diagnosis of pleural effusion is extensive. Pleural fluid characteristics are helpful in classifying, as transudate or exudate, being this determinant to achieve an accurate diagnosis.
The authors present a clinical report of a 74-year-old man with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction heart failure, of ischemic etiology, and multiple cardiovascular risk factors, who develops a pleural effusion. In his medical history it is important to denote a recent diagnosis of colon adenocarcinoma, without evidence of metastatic disease, submitted to hemicolectomy. Four months after this diagnosis, he was admitted in the Emergency Department with dyspnea, type 1 respiratory failure and de novo pleural effusion. The most probable etiologies of pleural effusion were excluded, including heart failure and a metastatic disease. Ultimately, it was reported a difficult (or not so) and unexpected etiology for the pleural effusion, in a patient with multimorbidity and multiple confounders.
It is crucial to see beyond the obvious. A real-life challenge for Internal Medicine.
The ResQCPR System: An Objective and Systematic Review
Authors: Goodwin, D.O., EMT-P, RN-BSN Glenn , Zeid, D.O. Tarik , Belok, D.O. Todd
Published: December 2021

The resource-limiting environment of the pre-hospital setting necessitates the continuous development of tools and interventions that maximise the capabilities of emergency medical services (EMS) municipalities. One such product developed by Zoll, the ResQCPR system, attempts to enhance the effectiveness of prehospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The ResQCPR system is comprised of the ResQPOD, which is an impedance threshold device (ITD), and the ResQPUMP, which is an assisted compression-decompression (ACD) device. Limited data exists regarding Zoll’s specific apparatuses as well as similar such devices. This systematic analysis comprehensively summarises a number of related studies. Their methods, limitations, results, and other aspects are outlined in the respective sections. Conclusion: This review concludes by determining that the effectiveness of the ResQPUMP, in particular (and ACD devices in general), is promising while the ResQPOD’s is uncertain. Future studies are needed to determine whether the effectiveness of the ResQPUMP markedly diminishes when used independently of the ResQPOD. This is an important feature for fire departments and other EMS municipalities because outfitting all appropriate units with both devices can be quite costly. Further studies are also needed to demonstrate reproducibility in humans (because 2 of the studies used pigs as test subjects) and with a greater amount of test subjects.

A Descriptive Analysis of Non-obligatory Shifts in Three Disney Animated Films Dubbed into Modern Standard Arabic
Authors: Sulaiman AlSuhaim Dana
Published: December 2021

This qualitative quantitative descriptive-analytical study aimed to describe the non-obligatory shifts employed in three English Disney animated films dubbed into MSA by applying Toury’s (1995/2012) normative model and shifts introduced in the course of his applied case studies. The researcher described and analyzed preliminary, initial and operational norms (non-obligatory shifts) employed on the level of three textual segments: the lexical-semantic, the stylistic, and the prosodic. The researcher compared those shifts with the original choices in the English versions of three selected Disney animated films. In the light of Toury’s theory (1995/2012), the current study investigated the hypothesis that the accepted socio-cultural, ideological, and linguistic norms of the Arabic culture directed the choices of the non-obligatory shifts chosen by the Arabic dubbers of English Disney animations dubbed into MSA. This investigation was conducted in application to three case studies, namely, Tangled (2010), Frozen (2013) and Big Hero 6 (2014). In order to decide the most frequently used shifts in the process of dubbing, the frequency rate of each non-obligatory shift was calculated to determine the highest frequently used shift. The study came to the conclusion that there is a direct relationship between the non-obligatory shifts (operational norms) applied during dubbing on the one hand and the socio-cultural, ideological, and linguistic norms imposed by the target culture on the other hand. Those target culture norms governed not only the operational choices but also the preliminary choices of the three selected Disney animated films dubbed into MSA. Affected by the preliminary and operational norms, Arab dubbers’ tendency towards producing acceptable rather than adequate translations decided the initial norms.

Authors: ZILINYI ZSOMBOR , NAGY ÁGOSTON , STERBENZ TAMÁS , NAGY BOTOND ÁGOSTON , NAGY BENEDEK ÁGOST
Published: December 2021

"Success in team sports foremostly depends on individual performance
and the cooperation of the team members. We aimed to investigate the individual
performance changes of youth awarded basketball players from youth to senior
national team level. For this purpose we examined four game-related basketball
statistics: Minutes Played (MP), Points Scored (PS), Rebounds (REB), and
Assists (AST) both in youth and senior level with regression analysis. We
collected all the individually prized players of former youth European Championships
available on the most reliable websites (N=323). We used descriptive statistical
methods and also investigated correlation between their prized performance
and their senior peak performance on national level (p<0.01). Our analysis
showed that a larger amount of the previously awarded players became
member of their senior national team (58%, n=188). 90.71% of the awarded
players (n=293) were the first or second best scoring leader of their own
team in their youth prime. We found moderate significant correlation between
youth rebounds and senior rebounds, also youth assists and senior assists,
but only weak correlation between youth and senior Minutes Played and
Points Scored. From this aspect getting awards on youth level can boost an
athlete’s career, but it doesn’t mean to reach the same peak when they are
selected to the senior squads as time and age are dominant background
variables, an extended analysis is needed in the future."

Authors: DOBOS KÁROLY , TÓTH PÉTER JÁNOS
Published: December 2021

"ABSTRACT. Introduction: Coaches should be able to estimate successfully
different physical attributes of junior tennis player’s performance such as
power, in order to monitor players’ progress and to design the most appropriate
training program. However, this process requires reliable and valid field tests.
Objective: Aim of this study was to examine absolute and relative reliability of
overhand ball throw (OBT) test within testing session and to investigate its
validity. Methods: 257 Hungarian junior boy and girl tennis players (aged 11-
17) separated into four groups, performed OBT and serve speed (SS) tests of
standardised protocol. Results: Dependent sample t-test revealed no significant
(p= 0.31-57>0.05) difference between test and retest sample means within
testing session and magnitude of effect size (dz=0.1-0.5) were trivial for all
groups. Furthermore, all groups had low typical percentage error (CV= 3-4 %),
and standard error of measurement values was consistently low (SEM= 0.12-
0.18). Within test-retest consistency illustrated strong relative reliability (ICC=
0.98-0.99). Moreover, significantly large to very large positive correlations
were found between OBT and SS (r= 0.57-0.81; p˂0.01) tests. The coefficient of
determination indicated that OBT explained 32-65% of the SS for groups.
Conclusions: These findings suggest that absolute and relative reliability of
OBT test is high within testing session and validity of OBT test is acceptable for
measuring power ability of flat serve execution in junior tennis players."

ABSTRACT. Background: The beginning of 2020, more precisely the month of March, when the Covid-19 pandemic was declared, represents the beginning of one of the darkest pages in the history of world sport. The reason is a well-known one, namely the fact that the implementation of measures to prevent the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus have led to the cessation of competitions and the training process, for certain periods of time, in almost all sports. The aim of this study was to see how these measures have influenced the sports activity in Romania, especially that of the sports organizations from Caraş-Severin County (C-S). Thus, a number of 43 sports organizations from CS County were targeted, of which 39.3% being clubs/associations that work only at the level of children and juniors, 12.5% are clubs/associations that have only senior team, and 48.2% are clubs/associations that have both senior team and children/junior teams. All participants agreed that information could be processed and used for scientific purpose, and the study has obtained Research Ethics Approval from The Scientific Council of the Babeș-Bolyai University of Cluj-Napoca. Methods: An online questionnaire survey was conducted, with 31 items, which aimed to outline an accurate picture of the existing situation among sports organizations, which was the situation of sports competitions in 2020, respectively the 2019-2020 season, which was the situation of the training process in the 10 pandemic months of 2020, but more importantly, what are the current situation of the training process and that of the competitive system. Results: Compared to the sports activity carried out at the level of CS county, a number of 8 team sports and a number of 12 individual sports were taken into account, the answers offered being in proportion of 73% from the coaches from team sports, and 27% from individual sports coaches. It was observed that in team sports 78% of the respondents showed that the 2020-2021 competitive season had not yet started until January 2021, while 14.6% it started and was interrupted. Only 7.3% of the teams are in full competition season, the 2020-2021 championship not being embodied due to the Covid-19 pandemic. It was also found that after the resumption of stopped training, as a result of the application of measures to prevent the spread of the pandemic, the number of children decreased both in individual sports and team games. Conclusion: Based on the results, we can see the negative impact of sports organizations that are in the lower leagues, as well as those that are at the level of children and juniors. The fact that training has not been resumed, the measures imposed by the pandemic, the fear induced by a possible infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus can cause the disappearance of a significant number of sports organizations, which will have a negative effect not only on the performance sport, but also on the level of public health.

ABSTRACT. Introduction: The prevalence of posture deformities and muscle weakness among primary school children is high (50-65%). Objective: To assess and improve the back care knowledge and spine disease prevention, the strength of the trunk muscles, the flexibility of the lower limb muscles, the posture, and the lumbar motor control ability of primary school children by a 1-school year back school program. Methods: 102 (mean age: 6.549±0.500 years) children were examined at the baseline, and 48 (23 boys, 25 girls) were chosen for the program. Back care knowledge was examined by validated questionnaire, trunk muscle strength, and muscle flexibility by Lehmann tests, posture by New York Posture Rating Chart, and lumbar motor control by Sitting Forward Lean Test. Results: The complete back care knowledge (2.423±3.911, 19.115±2.833 points; p<0.001), trunk flexor (3.615±7.910, 56.885±113.748 sec; p<0.001), trunk extensor (8.962±5.963, 77.000±139.801 sec; p<0.001) static muscle strength, lower limb flexibility (p<0.001), habitual posture (53.846±10.130, 81.154±9.829 points; p<0.001), posture deemed correct 40.962±16.311, 91.346±6.566 points; p<0.001) and lumbar motor control (8.269±5.474, 0.154±0.368 mm; p<0.001) significantly improved in the intervention group for the end of the program. Conclusions: The back school program improves the back care knowledge and the trunk state among 6-7 years old children.

Published: December 2021

ABSTRACT. Introduction: The purpose of this article is to analyze the motivation to practice sports and physical activities among university students. Objectives: To identify the perceived reasons, as well as the existing differences between the students from the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, regarding the motivation to practice sports and physical activities, depending on the gender and the area of residence. Methods: To find out what motivates university students to take part in various physical sports activities, we conducted a study in the academic year 2019-2020, with 257 participants. The method of quantitative research and the technique of administering questionnaires by sociological survey was used. The research tool was the Sports Motivation Scale-6 (SMS-6; Mallett et al., 2007), which is an evaluation of contextual motivation meant to ascertain the perceived reasons for practicing sports activities. Results: Regarding the behavior of practicing sports among students at the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, male students are more motivated compared to female students and intrinsic motivation is predominant compared to other types of motivation. The area of residence does not seem to influence differently the motivation of students to practice sports, the scores obtained on each type of motivation being very close between the respondents from rural and urban areas. Conclusions: Physical education and sports are perceived by some students as a school obligation (external motivation), by others as a recreational, compensatory or recovery activity, while for most of them it means fun, a way to meet new people and to enjoy their company (intrinsic motivation).

"The COVID-19 pandemic has a significant impact on the physical and psychological functioning of the entire world’s population. Our study has had three major aims: (1) to identify the major sources of discomfort related to COVID-19 pandemic in third year psychology students, (2) to establish a hierarchy of the major sources of discomfort, and (3) to identify possible vulnerabilities for different sources of discomfort. We used a cross-sectional study to explore more accurately the individual reactions and possible vulnerabilities, also including open-ended questions to explore perceived sources of discomfort. Our study included 289 third-year psychology students from Babeș-Bolyai University in Cluj-Napoca, Romania (M=24.39 years, SD=7.12). All participants were assessed regarding their levels of: depression, narcissistic traits, perfectionism, perceived stress, self-esteem, intolerance of uncertainty, subjective well-being, and emotion regulation strategies. Our results indicate significant gender and age differences: male participants reported mobility restrictions as a source of discomfort more frequently than female participants, and younger students are less concerned with restrictions regarding social relations, while older students report less emotional problems and less concern with educational problems. Students living in urban areas report less emotional problems than students from rural areas. The results generated by our research point out certain social and psychological vulnerabilities for each perceived source of discomfort (emotion-regulation strategies, perfectionism, narcissism), can bring a valuable input in counselling and therapy for individuals who are maximally affected by the pandemic of COVID-19."

In the last two decades, most of the Romanian mitigate programs aimed at reducing school dropout, have often focused only on remedial activities. However, keeping students in school for as long as possible involves increasing their school engagement, and therefore developing dimensions that target social and emotional skills is strongly recommended. In the present study, 130 primary and secondary school students from disadvantaged backgrounds, participated for 8 months in remedial and personal development activities, whose medium-term goal is to reduce school dropout. Using scales from the BASC3 and ASEBA4 psychological test batteries, we were able to capture significant effects of the intervention in reducing emotional problems and increasing students' adaptability to school-specific tasks, even though the pandemic imposed several restrictions on activities. The collected data revealed two important outcomes. First, they confirmed the effectiveness of a complex, multilevel program, which can develop the socio-emotional abilities of children at risk of dropping out of school. Second, they help us to highlight several factors that can predict its effectiveness. We consider that these empirical data constitute a solid foundation based on which similar future programs can be designed and implemented.
