Authors: Winarsih Winarsih
Published: August 2024

Organic waste easily emits horrible smells if not quickly processed. One way to process organic waste is by using an aerobic composter on a household scale. Organic waste processing has been socialized through the Department of Hygiene and Parks of Surabaya since 2002. This study aims to measure Jambangan village residents' participation rate in processing organic waste with composters. The method of this study is a survey of the Jambangan village residents that have installed the composters and have the space to place the composters. The data will then be analyzed with descriptive statistics. The data shows that Jambangan village residents' participation rate in processing organic waste with aerobic composters is very low. This is caused by a lack of knowledge and awareness among the public, combined with limited space availability. These factors contribute to the low participation rate of the community in organic waste processing.

Perceived Barriers and Facilitators Regarding the Implementation of Gamification to Promote Physical Activity in the Neighborhood: Interview Study Among Intermediaries
Authors: Schwarz Ayla , Verkooijen Kirsten , de Vet Emely , Simons Monique
Published: August 2024

Background

In the Netherlands, neighborhood sport coaches (NSCs) play an important role as intermediaries in promoting physical activity (PA) in the neighborhood. Gamification is the use of game elements in nongame contexts; it can be implemented with or without technology and holds promise for promoting PA. NSCs infrequently make use of this option.

Objective

This study aims to understand barriers to, and facilitators of, using gamification to promote PA, as perceived by NSCs.

Methods

A total of 25 semistructured interviews were conducted with NSCs in the Netherlands. The interviews were audiotaped, transcribed, and analyzed by means of thematic analysis using ATLAS.ti (version 22; ATLAS.ti Scientific Software Development GmbH) software. The deductive coding was informed by the capability, opportunity, motivation, behavior model and the theoretical domains framework, complemented by inductive coding.

Results

Barriers and facilitators identified as factors influencing the implementation of gamification were related to 7 themes. NSCs required technical, creative, and promotion skills; knowledge about existing gamification tools; and social support from their employer and professional network. Financial costs were identified as a barrier to the successful implementation of gamification. Lack of clarity regarding stakeholders’ responsibility to implement gamification could further hamper implementation. In general, NSCs were positive about investing time in implementing gamification and expected positive effects from implementing it.

Conclusions

To overcome identified barriers, a clear overview of tools, best practices, and available subsidies must be created, a gamification network must be established, the responsibility of NSCs must be clarified, and guidance must be offered on the promotion of gamification.
Assessment of the Quality and Readability of Web-Based Arabic Health Information on Halitosis: Infodemiological Study
Authors: Aboalshamat Khalid
Published: August 2024

Background

Halitosis, characterized by an undesirable mouth odor, represents a common concern.

Objective

This study aims to assess the quality and readability of web-based Arabic health information on halitosis as the internet is becoming a prominent global source of medical information.

Methods

A total of 300 Arabic websites were retrieved from Google using 3 commonly used phrases for halitosis in Arabic. The quality of the websites was assessed using benchmark criteria established by the Journal of the American Medical Association, the DISCERN tool, and the presence of the Health on the Net Foundation Code of Conduct (HONcode). The assessment of readability (Flesch Reading Ease [FRE], Simple Measure of Gobbledygook, and Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level [FKGL]) was conducted using web-based readability indexes.

Results

A total of 127 websites were examined. Regarding quality assessment, 87.4% (n=111) of websites failed to fulfill any Journal of the American Medical Association requirements, highlighting a lack of authorship (authors’ contributions), attribution (references), disclosure (sponsorship), and currency (publication date). The DISCERN tool had a mean score of 34.55 (SD 7.46), with the majority (n=72, 56.6%) rated as moderate quality, 43.3% (n=55) as having a low score, and none receiving a high DISCERN score, indicating a general inadequacy in providing quality health information to make decisions and treatment choices. No website had HONcode certification, emphasizing the concern over the credibility and trustworthiness of these resources. Regarding readability assessment, Arabic halitosis websites had high readability scores, with 90.5% (n=115) receiving an FRE score ≥80, 98.4% (n=125) receiving a Simple Measure of Gobbledygook score <7, and 67.7% (n=86) receiving an FKGL score <7. There were significant correlations between the DISCERN scores and the quantity of words (P<.001) and sentences (P<.001) on the websites. Additionally, there was a significant relationship (P<.001) between the number of sentences and FKGL and FRE scores.

Conclusions

While readability was found to be very good, indicating that the information is accessible to the public, the quality of Arabic halitosis websites was poor, reflecting a significant gap in providing reliable and comprehensive health information. This highlights the need for improving the availability of high-quality materials to ensure Arabic-speaking populations have access to reliable information about halitosis and its treatment options, tying quality and availability together as critical for effective health communication.
Transcending Language Barriers: Evaluating GPT-4’s English-to-Spanish Translation Accuracy in Dermatological Patient Education Materials (Preprint)
Authors: Mackenzie Elyse Marie , Wolfe Sydney , Sanabria Bianca , Ungar Jonathan
Published: August 2024

BACKGROUND

Patient Education Materials (PEMs) are vital for helping patients understand their health conditions, treatments, and prevention strategies. Effective PEMs are especially crucial in populations with limited access to follow-up care. However, most PEMs in the U.S. are written in English, disadvantaging non-fluent speakers and contributing to poorer health outcomes. Given the prominence of Spanish in the U.S. and globally, evaluating the translation quality of PEMs into Spanish is essential. This study assesses GPT-4's ability to translate dermatological PEMs from English to Spanish.

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate the accuracy and quality of GPT-4's translations of dermatological PEMs from English to Spanish.

METHODS

Data from the 2019 Global Burden of Disease Study identified atopic dermatitis as the most burdensome dermatological condition worldwide. Three PEMs on atopic dermatitis from JAMA Dermatology were translated by GPT-4. The original English articles, JAMA’s Spanish translations, and GPT-4 translations were analyzed. A bilingual social worker rated translation quality on a Likert scale for fluency, adequacy, meaning, severity, and preference. Readability was assessed using the Flesch-Kincaid Reading Ease score for English and the Fernández-Huerta score for Spanish translations.

RESULTS

Both GPT-4 and original translations received perfect scores in adequacy, meaning, and severity. However, GPT-4 translations scored lower in fluency, with average scores of 4 compared to 4.67 for original translations. Preference varied, with GPT-4 preferred for one article. Readability analysis showed the original PEMs were difficult to read, with an average Flesch-Kincaid score of 33.2 and grade level of 13.67. GPT-4 and original translations had Fernández-Huerta scores of 50.65 and 52.76, respectively, indicating similar readability levels.

CONCLUSIONS

GPT-4 shows significant potential in translating PEMs, effectively conveying health information without compromising patient outcomes. Despite receiving slightly lower fluency scores, GPT-4 translations were preferred in some cases. Readability analysis indicated that both English and Spanish PEMs are challenging to read, underscoring the need for more accessible patient education. Future studies should expand the sample size, include multiple raters, and test translations with Spanish-speaking patients to further validate these findings. Artificial intelligence translation tools like GPT-4 could improve dermatological care for Spanish-speaking populations by providing equitable access to health information.

The highest comorbidity was congenital heart disease (230 patients or 67.84%) in specifics were atrial septal defect (41 patients or 12.39%), atrioventricular septal defect (29 patients or 8.17%), and patent ductus arteriosus (28 patients or 7.88%). The second highest comorbidity was endocrine system disorders (102 patients or 30.09%), with 100 patients (28.16%) children suffering hypothyroidism. The number of children who had one comorbidity was 248 patients (69.86%), 74 patients (20.48%) had two comorbidities, and 17 patients (4.79%) had three or more comorbidities. The highest co-prevalence of the two comorbidities was congenital heart disease and endocrine system disorders (36 patients or 10.14%). The highest co-prevalence of 3 or more comorbidities was a combination of congenital heart disease, visual impairment, and hearing impairment (6 patients or 1.69%). In conclusion, 95.49% of children with DS have comorbidities. The most common comorbidity was heart defects. About 25.63% of patients had more than one comorbidity. Children with DS who have comorbidities require more attention to prevent complications and to reduce morbidity.
Does Perceiving the Authentic Self Affect the Meaning of Life?

Published: August 2024

Self-authenticity and the meaning of life are important for an individual’s psychological well-being. However, studies on the relationship between authenticity and the meaning of life using a quantitative approach have been largely carried out in Western countries, with minimum research being conducted in the Indonesian context. However, several studies have found differences in self-authenticity among different social and cultural conditions. The purpose of this study was to unveil the influence of perceived authenticity on the meaning of life by controlling for self-esteem and positive affect in Indonesian adults. These control variables were added to see the influence of the two variables more precisely. This study involved 369 adult Indonesians (aged 18-64 years old, M=32.2 years). The instruments used were the Authenticity Scale, Multidimensional Existential Meaning Scale, Positive and Negative Affect Schedule, and Rosenberg Self-Esteem Test. Data collection was carried out online, and multilevel regression analysis was used to test the hypothesis. The findings indicate that, by controlling for self-esteem and positive affect, feeling authentic influences the person’s meaning in life. Perceived authenticity in the 18-35 age group is lower than in the 36-45 and 46-55 age groups. The study also found that the married group perceives themselves as more authentic than the unmarried. The findings of this study can be a basis for future studies on authenticity in Indonesia and help build awareness about the importance of authenticity for Indonesian adults.

Authors: Chike Onuchukwu Godwin
Published: August 2024

Laser Direct Energy Deposition (LDED) is a highly precise additive manufacturing technique that enables the creation and repair of complex metal components by melting and depositing metal powders. This study comprehensively evaluates Ti-6Al4V alloy within the LDED framework, highlighting its performance relative to other metals such as stainless steel, Inconel, and aluminum alloys. Ti-6Al-4V, a titanium-based alloy known for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, fatigue resistance, and corrosion resistance, is scrutinized for its advantages and limitations in the LDED process. The research includes a detailed comparison of mechanical properties, thermal behavior, and cost-effectiveness of Ti-6Al-4V against other common LDED metals. Additionally, the study explores the impact of powder metallurgy techniques on the deposition quality and performance of Ti-6Al-4V, focusing on aspects such as powder production methods, particle size distribution, and alloying effects. Real-world applications and case studies from industries including aerospace, automotive, and medical engineering are examined to illustrate the practical advantages of Ti-6Al-4V. The paper concludes by identifying key challenges and opportunities associated with Ti-6Al-4V in LDED and offering recommendations for future research and practical applications. This comprehensive evaluation aims to enhance understanding of Ti-6Al-4V's role in LDED and guide its optimized use in advanced manufacturing contexts
The Importance of Victim Sensitive Body-Worn Camera Policy
Authors: Saulnier Alana , Couture-Carron Amanda
Published: August 2024

Working with interview data from victims of sexual assault and/or intimate partner violence (IPV), key themes emerged that are important for victim-sensitive body-worn camera (BWC) policies: notification, consent, alternative recording options, procedural consistency, and data storage and access.
Recommendations to promote victim-sensitive BWC use include: notifying victims of BWC use as soon as reasonably possible, asking victims if they consent to BWC recording, retaining audio (but not video) recording if consent is not provided, ensuring that BWCs are used consistently by frontline members, requiring that BWC videos are regularly subject to supervisory review, leveraging BWC videos in training to prepare for quality victim-police interactions, and providing victims with clear information regarding BWC footage access and data security.
Police Recruitment Videos and their Relevance for Attracting Officers
Authors: Simpson Rylan
Published: August 2024

Police recruitment videos are a widely used and highly salient form of police marketing. These videos can attract prospective applicants, communicate information about a policing career with a given agency, and help prospective applicants to assess their potential fit with that agency.
Police agencies tend to highlight the more thrilling and high-risk elements of policing in their recruitment videos rather than the more community-oriented and low-risk elements of policing. 
The content of recruitment videos could impact who decides to pursue policing careers, the behaviour of officers once hired, as well as officer satisfaction and retention. Police leaders should pay careful attention to the content of their recruitment videos.
