IDENTIFYING WOMEN WITH PSYCHOLOGICAL PROBLEMS DURING THE IN VITRO FERTILIZATION PROCESS: THE PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATION TEST (PET)
Authors: Opsenica Kostić Jelena , Mitrović Milica
Published: September 2022

Especially strong or inadequate emotional reactions during in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment may affect both the success of the treatment and later mental health. This study tested the possibility of using Psychological Evaluation Test for Infertile Couples (PET) scores to identify women with psychological problems during the IVF process, so that they can be offered psychological counseling. The sample comprised 158 women, all of whom were undergoing the IVF treatment at the time of the study, and 128 women who had at least one child conceived without difficulties. All of the respondents filled in a questionnaire concerning their emotional status and coping competencies, while the PET was given only to the respondents undergoing IVF. Respondents with higher PET scores (> 30) have significantly higher Negative Affectivity and Shame in front of others, and lower Positive Affectivity and Coping competencies than the group with low PET scores (≤ 30) and women who conceived without difficulties.  Respondents with lower PET scores do not significantly differ from women who conceived without difficulties. The results obtained suggest that the PET cut-off score > 30 may be considered a reliable measure to identify women with psychological problems i.e., reaching scores of > 30 can be taken as an indicator of the need for psychological support.

The aim of this research is to determine the characteristics of storytelling in preschool children. The study included 60 children, aged four, five and six years. The characteristics of the narration of a story on the macrolinguistic and microlinguistic plane were assessed by applying the Comic story task (Kostić, Vladisavljević & Popović, 1983).The results of the macrolinguistic structure of storytelling showed that focus in four and five-year-olds is in describing the introductory event and the activities leading to a goal. In contrast, with six-year-old children story patterns exist at a cognitive level, since the elements of the comic story are consistently described in just slightly less than half of the them.The results of the microlinguistic structure of storytelling showed that the four-year-olds stories predominantly contain simple sentences, while simple-extended and dependent-complex syntactic constructions dominate in the stories of five-year-olds. In contrast, there is a tendency in six-year-olds to use complex (consecutive, dependent) sentences. Storytelling in children develops gradually over the preschool period, so instructions for storytelling is important for all children, especially for those at risk for or with language learning impairments.
TRANSFORMATION OF THE CONCEPTUALIZATION OF SUICIDE THROUGH THE CENTURIES IN EUROPE
Authors: Ivanović Milena
Published: September 2022

In this paper we aim to acknowledge suicide both as a universality, omnipresent through various cultures and ages and always evoking potent reactions, as well as inspect its historical and geographical specificities. In particular, the historical transformation of discourse surrounding suicide in Europe is examined, including how judicial, religious, medical, psychological, literary, philosophical views, debates and writings on suicide have shaped the treatment of suicidality and the conceptualization of people with suicidal ideation. Parallels are drawn between past and current approaches to treatment and concerns regarding the depiction of suicide, while changes are examined within the context of and as a reflection of societal changes, both in terms of empathy and knowledge available, as well as grand social revolutions and dominant political regimes and orientations.

There has been an increase in cases of early marriage nationwide during the Covid-19 pandemic. Based on data from the Central Java DP3AP2KB, there were 11,301 cases of early childhood marriages for girls and 1,671 for boys. This also happened in Semarang Regency, Central Java, which was caused by the decline in the economic level of the community so that marrying underage children was considered as an alternative problem solving. For this reason, it is necessary to have an early marriage prevention program in the form of changing people's mindsets, especially mothers and children, which also provide solutions to the problems of early marriage. The program that is run as an effort to prevent early marriage is the Early Marriage Community Partnership Program (PKM) from Psychosocial, Cultural and Reproductive Health Perspectives. This is considered important because psychosocial, cultural problems and lack of understanding of reproductive health are the drivers of early marriage. Education for PKK mothers, youth and youth organizations has succeeded in increasing perceptions of the negative impact of early marriage. Education participants also made an agreement to jointly reduce the number of early marriages by involving youth in Karang Taruna activities.

ABSTRAKIn addition to bringing changes in every sector of life, the Covid-19 pandemic is a challenge for women. In difficult conditions, women turned out to have a role in strengthening the economy in the midst of the Corona Virus Disease-19 (Covid-19). The formulation of the problem from this research was how women manage to survive and contribute to the family's economic well-being. The study employed descriptive analytic qualitative research approaches. The data collection method was conducting interviews with women parking in Meulaboh, West Aceh, and combining them with their personal histories. This study also employed observations or monitors and gathered information from online journals, books, newspapers, and other sources. According to research, even when women's income was low, they still tried to work to make ends meet despite the covid-19. During the epidemic, the majority of respondents reported their income had decreased. Only for those who work at Pasar Bina Usaha, which is unsurprising given that the market was where the inhabitants of West Aceh get their most basic requirements met. They also wanted the government to assist them and pay attention to them while they faced difficult circumstances. Government policies, the commercial sector, academics, and the community must all work together to raise awareness of economically vulnerable women during the epidemic, to provide more gender-responsive support, and to involve women in decision-making.Keywords: The role of women, covid-19, the family economy

This research is a disparity in women's leadership, especially in the context of Islamic universities in Indonesia. This is because women's leadership still faces many challenges, such as stereotyping and marginalisation of women, both in the educational, social and cultural spheres. This study aims to analyse and evaluate the leadership model of the female rector of PTKIN in implementing gender-responsive programs. This research is field research, namely field research using a qualitative approach. The data needed is the PTKIN rector model including the rector of IAIN Bukittinggi, IAIN Ponorogo, and IAIN Metro Lampung. Data collection techniques using observation, interviews and documentation, with descriptive and narrative analysis. The results of the study indicate that in implementing gender-responsive programs, namely planning and implementing activities, it shows that the three rectors of PTKIN, namely IAIN Bukittinggi, Ponorogo, and Metro Lampung, tend to be transformational-democratic. It is proven from the seven prerequisites that have been set that the planning of gender-responsive programs in its planning is moderate and open in accepting input, proposals and suggestions regarding the planning and implementation of activities as well as budgeting for activities from their subordinates. At the time of performance, they facilitated the administrative process, budget disbursement, and bureaucracy. While in the evaluation activities, although they are still said to be democratic and moderate, in the evaluation activities their leadership style is also a little permissive, an indication that they accept the evaluations carried out.
Women’s speech, a call for economic empowerment: An appraisal analysis
Authors: Adisti Aprilian Ria , Hasbi Muhammad
Published: September 2022

The phenomenon of women participation in entrepreneurship sector is rising significantly during the last decade. In reality, women still face many barriers in entrepreneurship both professionally and personally.  In 29 August 2019, Najwa Shihab delivered an inspiring keynote speech in Global Conference on Women and Entrepreneurship held by Alibaba and Lazada in Jakarta. Since Najwa Shihab's speech got many responses from the audiences, it is highly considerable to investigate the content of the speech from a linguistic point of view. This study aimed at analyzing the spoken text from Najwa Shihab’s speech through Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). For specific investigation, Appraisal framework was used in this study. The study focused on the attitude which relates to the feelings, emotion, reactions, and judgments of behaviour on Najwa Shihab’s speech about women and entrepreneurship. The design of the study was descriptive qualitative. The findings showed that the speech used 55 clauses which consisted of 27 clauses of affect (49%), 18 clauses of judgment (33%), and 10 clauses of appreciation (18%). All clause-complexes had attitudes. The use of affect dominated the percentage of attitudes. Furthermore, this speech also encouraged women to do 3 things: dare to change the paradigm of clichés and stereotypes into strength, dare to take a role in the national and global economy to ensure that women's voices and perspectives are present in every discussion and decision making, and support each other and bring the community that can empower other women.

Authors: Maulana Rahmad , Syarifuddin Syarifuddin
Published: September 2022

A stereotype is a form of gender inequality that often occurs against women with negative labeling of their characteristics, physique, and actions. This study aims to analyze and describe the stereotyping of female characters in the novel Raaytu Ramallâh by Mourid Barghouti. The author cleverly presented interesting and relevant stories about contemporary social conditions prone to stereotypes against women. This study used a qualitative descriptive method on the object, the novel Raaytu Ramallâh, with a content analysis approach focused on examining its contents. Essential data and information collected and studied in this study were words, phrases and sentences containing elements of racial discrimination's impact in short stories. The data were collected through techniques such as reading, recording, and analyzing documents with a feminist approach as the framework of thinking. The results showed there are six forms of stereotypes against women experienced by the female characters in this novel; first, it is women's nature to immediately get proposed to marry right after graduating from elementary school; second, gender differences between women and men cause negative labeling; third, negative stigma against women's physique, attractiveness; fourth, widows are labelled as "foreigners" and "refugees from afar"; fifth, women fighters are labelled "liars" and given the stigma of "one hundred mothers for one child"; and sixth, women's actions are labelled as "lazy".Keywords : Stereotypes, female characters, feminism

Dual-characters hand puppet is the result of combining more than one ordinary hand puppet into a new-designed hand puppet. Dual-characters hand puppet is an innovative learning aid which can be used by teachers or adults with storytelling method which has many benefits especially in stimulating children's expressive language. Expressive language is the ability to ask questions, answer questions, communicate orally, retell what is known, learn pragmatic language, express feelings, ideas, and desires in the form of scribbles. The lack of variety of hand puppet design in stimulating children's expressive language is the basis of this research. This study aims to determine the feasibility of dual-characters hand puppet in stimulating children's expressive language development and to determine children's responses to the use of the media. This study uses an adapted research design from the Borg and Gall Research and Development (R&D) with six (6) stages of research. The results of this study indicate the media feasibility as of 94.5% and content feasibility is 93.7%, both of which are in the “very eligible” category to use. The results of testing the media to measure the child's response received the results as of 87.5% and 85% with the “eligible” category for use.

Published: September 2022

Plants used in the traditional healing system require a systematic evaluation that may give more promising data about their medicinal value and may be useful to meet the rising demand for novel agents to combat infections and diseases. The plant Sesbania procumbens is a one used traditionally by the rural population for a varietyof medicinal purposes including anti inflammatory activity. Based on this report the plant S. procumbens was selected for our research and in this study different extracts of S. procumbens were evaluated in vitro for anti-inflammatory activity. The whole plant material was collected, authenticated, aerial parts were separated, shade dried for about two weeks and made into a coarse powder by using mechanical grinder. Extraction of powdered material was done by soxhlation using the different solvents of increasing polarity viz., petroleum ether, chloroform, ethyl acetate and methanol. Dried extracts thus obtained were subjected to in vitro anti-inflammatory evaluation by human red blood cell (HRBC) membrane stabilization in normal and different temperature (54°C and −10°C) and tonicity (hypotonic and isotonic) conditions. Six different concentrations (100, 200, 400, 600, 800, 1000μg/ml) of four extracts were subjected to evaluation with indomethacin (100μg/ml) as standard control. The data thus collected was analysed by using SPSS version 15.0. All values are expressed as mean ± SD. 0.05 was considered statistically significant From the results, a dose-dependent rise in antiinflammatory activity was found in all the tested extracts. Particularly, the methanol and ethyl acetate extracts showed significant activity in their maximum testing concentration (1000µg/ml) in all the experimental approaches. The results of this study strongly supported the claims of the anti-inflammatory property of the tested extracts. Further studies such as in vivo evaluations and phytochemical screening of the extracts may give more significant data which may be useful for the development of novel chemotherapeutic agents
Novel Formulation of Herbal Pesticide for Rice Cultivation
Authors: K Ahilandeswari , Maheswari.N Uma
Published: September 2022

The irrational use of chemical pesticides has caused serious health hazards and environmental problems in developing countries including India. Hence, the Present investigation was carried out to formulate an effective Herbal pesticide against three major pests of rice like stem borers, leafhoppers and plant hoppers and to find solution for control of pest population by traditional agricultural practices. Oil of Azadirachta indica, Vitex nigundo, Ipomoea carnea, Adhatoda zeylanica and natural surfactant are the main constituents used in the formulations. Larvae of stem borers in the infected stem and hopper damaged part of the plant were selected for the study. A total of six herbal formulations at four different concentrations were sprayed on larvae of stem borers and hopper damaged parts of plants. The developed herbal pesticides have been validated in the field as well as in lab conditions and larval mortality rates were observed. After treatment, the population of pests decreased gradually and the mortality rate of larvae increased. Herbal pesticides focus on providing solutions and relief from various types of insects that cause massive damages to the plants being grown on a farm. These products were made of natural materials that have properties of killing or keeping out pests within the range of the field. The results showed that the extent of growth of these pests was less when compared to control and minimum occurrence of pest attack and Percent Dead Heart (DH) was confirmed in response to herbal formulations. The foremost benefit of this herbal pesticide is managing the Yellow Stem Borer (YSB) pest population and providing healthier cropping systems. Hence it is recommended to use this herbal pesticide for disease free sustainable cultivation of organic rice.

Já há algumas décadas, determinados conceitos, que pareciam sólidos e davam base a teorias antropológicas, estão sob suspeita na disciplina: sociedade, cultura, parentesco e, particularmente, religião. Hoje, é quase consensual na antropologia a necessidade de questionar sua universalidade. Críticas à religião como categoria antropológica (como a de Asad) são bastante conhecidas, sendo desnecessário repisá-las aqui. Mas quero atentar para o mal-estar daí derivado. Diante de uma noção tão abstrata, universalizável, temos de nos haver com o fato de que “religião” é uma palavra fundamentalmente eurocêntrica, demasiadamente cristã e que amiúde traduz mal práticas de povos não euro-americanos. Paira algum incômodo sobre como tratar a religião antropologicamente, se rejeitamos sua universalidade, mas permanecemos utilizando o termo, tanto para descrever certas instituições, práticas e ideias, quanto para demarcar temas e horizontes disciplinares. Nas últimas décadas, poucos antropólogos têm ousado propor um conceito de religião. Ainda assim, continuamos a fazer “antropologia da religião”. Aí o desconforto.

ANALYSIS OF THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE AND ENERGY FRAMEWORKS OF 5-ACETIL-1,3-DIMETHYL BARBITURIC ACID
Authors: KINCAL Sultan , TOPKAYA Cansu , GÜP Ramazan , HÖKELEK Tuncer
Published: September 2022

C8H9N2O4 was prepared via acetylation of 1,3-dimethyl barbituric acid. The atomic and crystalline structures were determined using single crystal analysis (X-ray). It is a member of the monoclinic system P 21/c group of space with a = 8.6056 (3) Å, b = 9.1602 (3) Å, c = 11.9601 (4) Å, β = 109.410 (3)°, Z = 4 and V = 889.22 (5) Å3. π–π interactions between circles of nearby molecules with intercentroid distances of 3.4300 (11) aid in the stability of the structure by keeping the crystals in place. The Hirshfeld surface (HS) analysis of the crystal structure reveals that the H... O/O... H (45.9%) and H... H (32.9%) interactions contribute the most to crystal packing. The most essential interactions in crystal packing are hydrogen bonding and van der Waals interactions. According to the dispersion, electrostatic and overall energy frameworks, the contribution of dispersion energy dominates the stability.

Mixed matrix composite membranes (MMCMs) hold great potential to realize
efficient CO2 removal from natural gas. However, the reduction of
separation performance arising from the interfacial defects, significant
plasticization and aging effect in the thin films severely limit their
application. Herein, we fabricated a series of polyimide MMCMs with
MOF-protruding structure wherein amino-functionalized ZIF-8 nanocrystals
nearly penetrate the thin selective layer. Through engineering the
interfacial interactions, e.g., covalent or hydrogen bondings, we
successfully fabricated defect-free MMCMs with the thickness ranging
from 140 to 280 nm. The stronger interfacial interactions eliminate the
interfacial defects and restrict the mobility of polymer chains under
high pressure. Accordingly, the MMCM displays a high CO2 permeance of
778 GPU and a CO2/CH4 selectivity of 34 with significantly improved
resistance to plasticization and aging. Considering the superior
performance, we anticipate our work could provide guidelines on
designing advanced MMMs to tackle critical separations.
Transgenerational effects of elevated CO 2 : Downregulation of photosynthetic efficiency and stomatal sensitivity to drought
Authors: Schweiger Andreas , Awdamet Fikeremariam Tegegn , Drenckhan Wiebke , Berauer Bernd J.
Published: September 2022

Increasing atmospheric CO and drought are major
symptoms of anthropogenic climate change with profound effects on plant
growth. Transgenerational memory (i.e. influence of the parental
environment on offspring phenotype and performance) has been suggested
as a relevant mechanism for plants to build-up adaptative capacity for
rapid environmental changes. However, this mechanism of pre-adaptation
remains poorly investigated so far. We investigated intra- and
transgenerational effects of elevated CO on drought
response of wheat. We used seeds from a FACE (Free Air Carbon Dioxide
Enrichment) experiment with ambient and elevated CO to
grow plants in climate chambers in which we varied CO ,
atmospheric water demand and soil moisture. We quantified photosynthetic
efficiency, stomatal sensitivity and biomass production. We observed
intragenerational upregulation of photosynthetic efficiency but
transgenerational downregulation of photosynthetic efficiency, stomatal
sensitivity and water use efficiency as response to maternally elevated
CO . Plant biomass was affected by drought and
experimental CO but not by maternal CO
. Our study showcases the importance of
transgenerational memory effects when studying climate change response
of plants and could have major implications for our understanding of
global dynamics of carbon sequestration. It highlights the pressing need
for multi-generational experiments accounting for transgenerational
memory effects of elevated CO .
On the solution of the distributed optimal control problem with time-periodic parabolic equations

We consider the system of linear equations arisen from the finite
element discretization of the distributed optimal control problem with
time-periodic parabolic equations. A block alternating splitting
iteration (BASI) method is presented for solving the obtained system. We
prove that the BASI method is unconditionally convergent. We derive the
BASI preconditioner and present an estimation formula for the parameter
of the BASI preconditioner. Numerical results are presented to verify
the efficiency of both the BASI method and the BASI preconditioner.
Comparison with some existing methods are also given.

Authors: Bisht Himanshi , Tripathi Apoorva , Thakor Shubham , Shetty Swasthi , Meyur Shourya , Raval Goldy
Published: September 2022

In 2022, Monkey pox disease was declared as a Global Health Emergency.
With the emergence of an epidemic such as this, it becomes imperative
that accurate information is imparted to all the individuals. However,
as seen in the case of Covid-19 pandemic, it is evident that people
consume most of the information through social media platforms such as
Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and others. With this, there is a
possibility of an increase in dissemination of misinformation which was
very well noted in case of Covid-19 Pandemic. Aims: To analyse the
information that is available on Instagram regarding Monkey Pox disease
and to determine its accuracy. Methodology: A cross-sectional,
observational type of study where total of 522 posts were analysed over
a period of two days was done. Top 90 posts from the top six monkey pox
related hashtags were analysed on the basis of a proforma made of
pre-selected questions via the platform google docs and accordingly the
results were calculated. Results showed that, most of the posts are
descriptive in nature, and only a few(11.65%) were posted by doctors.
Most of them were posted by news or other agencies. Some of the posts
were from unverified sources as well(27.65%). Discussion: As witnessed
in Covid 19, there is prevalent misinformation when a global health
emergency is concerned, attributed to vast access to social media
platforms. In order to combat this dissemination of false information,
such platforms should be regulated and should operate under guidelines
of WHO.
Diabetes and obesity in Down Syndrome across the lifespan: a retrospective cohort study using UK electronic health records
Authors: Aslam Aisha A , Baksh R Asaad , Pape Sarah E , Strydom Andre , Gulliford Martin C , CHANG Lian Fong
Published: September 2022

  

Objective

Down Syndrome (DS) is the commonest form of chromosomal trisomy. Genetic factors in DS may increase the risk for diabetes. This study aimed to determine whether DS is associated with increased incidence of diabetes and the relationship with obesity across the lifespan compared to controls. 

Methods

Matched population-based cohort study (UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink, 1990-2020). 

Results

9,917 DS and 38,266 control patients were analysed. Diabetes rates were higher in DS individuals (incidence rate ratio 3.67; 95% CI 2.43 – 5.55; p<0.0001) and peaked at younger age; median age at diagnosis of 38 (28 to 49) years compared to 53 (43 to 61) years in controls. Incidence rates for T1DM were 0.44 per 1,000 patient years (0.31 to 0.61) in DS compared to 0.13 (0.09 to 0.17) in controls. T2DM rates were higher in DS compared to controls at age groups 5 years up to 34 years. In DS, peak mean BMI (kg/m2) was higher and at younger age (male=31.2 at 31 years; female=32.1 at 43 years) compared to controls (males=29.5 at 54 years; females 29.2 at 51 years); obesity was associated with an increased incidence of T2DM.

Conclusions

At younger ages, the incidence of diabetes in DS patients is up to four times that of controls. Peak mean BMI is higher and established earlier in DS, contributing to T2DM risk. Further investigation into the relationship between obesity and diabetes in DS is required to inform treatment and prevention measures.
Ut av edderkoppnettet med to tomme hender: Kvinners møte med hjelpetjenestene etter vold i nære relasjoner i samiske samfunn
Authors: Thorslund Berit D. , Kiil Mona Anita
Published: September 2022

Temaet er voldsutsatte kvinner fra nordsamiske områder og deres møte med offentlige hjelpetjenester som krisesentre, politiet og arbeids- og velferdsforvaltningen (Nav). Prosjektets målsetting var å få kvinnenes fortellinger om endringen de gjorde gjennom å bryte med sin voldelige partner for så å reetablere seg i en ny livshverdag. I prosessen med å endre sin livssituasjon, uten sin voldelige partner, opplevde kvinnene det de beskrev som en dobbeltydmykelse, spesielt i møte med Nav. Det handler om skam og skyldfølelse for å ha vært utsatt for vold, om taushetskulturen i de samiske samfunn der en holder familierelaterte hendelser innad i slekta, og om risikoen for å bli utfryst fra eget nettverk dersom kvinnen, som i utgangspunktet skal være «sterk», forlater sin mann. Det handler også om arven det samiske folket har med seg fra fornorskningstiden. I møter med Nav opplevde kvinnene liten anerkjennelse, og at de derfor ikke fikk innvilget tilstrekkelig hjelp. Da hjelpen ble avgrenset til arbeidsretting og ikke inkluderte kvinnenes reelle behov, ga møtene deres med Nav inntrykk av at tjenesten opprettholdt en form for strukturell makt. Dette kan gjenkjennes i undertrykkelsen samiske personer har måttet forholde seg til historisk sett.
English abstract
Can domestic violence in Sami communities lead to a double humiliation when facing the public welfare system?This article deals with women from northern Sami areas in Norway who have been exposed to domestic violence. We seek to address the significance of recognition and respect when these women, in need of help are confronting various public services. When meeting with Nav (the Norwegian Labour and Welfare Administration), the women in this study, now separated from a violent partner, experienced double humiliation in the process of re-establishing their lives. This humiliation was connected with the shame and guilt of having been exposed to domestic violence, with Sami cultural codes about keeping things in the family, and with the risk of beingexcluded from your own network if you left your partner, despite the Sami value attached to being «strong». Furthermore, this sense of humiliation is connected with the historical legacy of the Sami people from the cultural assimilation process in Norway, and how this influences their relationship with NAV. The women experienced little recognition of their current situation and needs, and a lack of help other than that related to employment. Their encounter with NAV, therefore, gave the impression of a service which reproduces the asymmetrical power structure and oppression that the Sami people have had to deal with historically.
Cervical Ectopic Pregnancy: Role of Imaging in Diagnosis and Management
Authors: D Pandey
Published: September 2022

Cervical pregnancy is rare form of ectopic pregnancy with implantation in the endocervical canal and accounts for less than 1% of all ectopic gestation. Ultrasonography has important role both in diagnosis and treatment. Early diagnosis in asymptomatic phase is possible especially in IVF pregnancies as these women are in constant clinical supervision. The transvaginal ultrasonography is safe and helpful in clinching diagnosis. Methotrexate (MTX) is the first line management in hemodynamically stable patient. In cases with presence of cardiac activity, MTX can be combined with ultrasound guided local injection of potassium chloride. Measures like intracervical vasopressin injection, ligation of cervico-vaginal division of uterine artery or use of inflated foley’s bulb can be used prior to conservative surgery like endocervical curettage to reduce chances of bleeding. Interventional radiological procedure like uterine artery embolization (UAE) is another option if available, before curettage to minimise bleeding
Caesarean Delivery in a German Population Based Birth Cohort with Special Focus on Maternal Request 1990-2013
Authors: N Baldes
Published: September 2022

Background: In the industrialized world, the proportion of caesarean sections (CS) is increasing over time. Estimating the incidence of caesarean delivery on maternal request (CDMR) to be 7–14% of all CS today. Previous studies described advanced maternal age, increasing maternal body mass index (BMI), multiple pregnancies, breech presentation, suspected low infant birthweight and private hospital status as reasons for the overall increase. The aim of this study was to evaluate the birth mode distribution in correlation to influencing factors over time. Methods: We analysed data on CDMR of the population-based Mainz birth registry from 1990-2013. The following known exposure were considered to be relevant: maternal age, BMI, diabetes, smoking and ethnicity, assisted reproductive technologies (ART), socioeconomic status of the family, infants birthweight, and year of data collection as a proxy for unknown risk factors. A logistic regression model quantifies the impact of these factors. Results: The overall proportion of CDMR was 4.1% of all births in the study period and 17.1% of all CS. The proportion of CDMR increased from 0.8% to 4.5% as well as CS from 16.4% to 29.5% from 1990 to 2013. The logistic regression model for CDMR showed significant results for maternal age, infants birthweight >90%ile, ART, smoking mothers, BMI, and maternal diabetes. However, a large proportion of the yearly increase remains unexplained. Conclusion: Since the CDMR proportion rises over time independently from the other factors, there have to be other factors influencing the CDMR rate.

Background: Anaemia, most common due to iron deficiency affects all ages in many populations and has become major public health global concern. Attempts continue to prevent. Objective: was to know efficacy of allopathic, ayurvedic medication, nutritional advice on women with mild, moderate anaemia with no obvious disorders which could cause anaemia. Material Methods: Institute based study was carried out after taking ethics committee’s approval. Study subjects were women of 15 to 49 years from outpatient of obstetrics gynaecology. They had disorders but not those which could have caused anaemia. Volunteers, relatives or friends of patients, were explained, included after looking into inclusion criteria. No one refused and 75% were patients. After checking haemoglobin women with mild, moderate anaemia were given medication monthly for 6 months. Nutritional advocacy was done using booklet. Total 904 anaemic women were divided in 4 groups randomly, group A Allopathic medication, group An Allopathic medication with nutritional advice, group B: Ayurvedic medication, group Bn: Ayurvedic medication with nutritional advice. Results: 1330 women screened, 904(67.96%), 168(18.6%), moderately and 736(81.41%) were mildly anaemic. Of them only 562(62.2%) women took medication though provided free, 104(61.90%) of moderately anaemic 458(62.22%), mildly anaemic. After 180 days of 104 moderately anaemic 72(69.21%) became nonanaemic, 32(30.8%) mildly anaemic and of 458 mildly anaemic, 430(93.9%) became non-anaemic women. 28(6.1%) remained mildly anaemic. Subjective analysis revealed feeling very good in most, no change in few. No one talked of negative effects. Some had side effects. Conclusion: It is essential to find ways of appropriate iron intake to prevent anaemia. In very small numbers anaemia did not change in spite of giving iron which needs research. Research on behavioural aspect is needed as noncompliance was in large numbers even with free medication.
Vascular and Neurogenic-Cobb Syndrome
Authors: A Bajaj
Published: September 2022

Cobb syndrome is an exceptional, non-inherited, genetic disorder characteristically constituted by vascular anomalies and neurological deficits. Spinal arteriovenous malformations appear in concurrence with cutaneous vascular lesions within the corresponding dermatome. Dermatome specific port wine stain upon the trunk, arteriovenous malformation, angioma, angiokeratoma, angiolipoma, cavernous haemangioma or lymphatic malformation is discerned in accompaniment with hyperreflexia, limb paresis, muscular cramps, sensory loss, bladder and bowel dysfunction, sudden paraplegia or subarachnoid haemorrhage. Spinal vascular lesions of Cobb syndrome can be adequately determined with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computerized tomography (CT) scan, plain radiography or angiography. Cobb syndrome can be appropriately managed with sclerotherapy, endovascular embolization, oral corticosteroids or surgical extermination of vascular lesions.

This research was motivated by a lack of students' understanding in history subject, especially on cause-effect point. It was evidenced by the students’ learning outcomes in Indonesian History subjects that are still under the KKM (77). This is because the teacher is still dominant using conventional learning models. For this reason, we need a learning model that can improve students' understanding on cause-effect material. The solution offered is the cooperative learning model of the Students’ Team Achievement Division. This study aims to see the effect of implementing the Student Team Achievement Division learning model on the ability of students to understand cause-effect material in history subject. This type of research is quantitative research with experimental methods. The population of this study were students of class XI IPS SMAN 3 Pariaman, in number to 150 people. The samples obtained were the XI IPS 2 class as the experimental class and XI IPS 3 as the control class totaling of 60 people. It obtained through random sampling techniques. Data collecting is done by giving pretest and posttest by using objective questions as many as 40 items. Data analysis was performed using the normality test, homogeneity test, and hypothesis testing. After these two tests were carried out on the two sample classes, there were the pretest and posttest which have differences in the mean values. The average value of the experimental class pretest was 8.54 and the control class was 7.37. The average value of the experimental class posttest was 10.54 and the control class was 8.20. Analysis of the normality test showed that both samples are normally distributed, where Lhit <Ltab in the experimental class was 0.833 and the control class was 0.840 with Ltab was 0.886. The homogeneity test results showed the sample has a homogeneous variant where Fhit <Ftab was 1.374 <1.713. The results of the t test showed Thit> Ttab which was 3.163> 2.068, so that it can be declared H0 accepted while H1 is rejected. Thus, it can be concluded that there is the influences of the use of the cooperative learning model of the Students’ Team Achievement Division on the results of history subject of Indonesian History to students in class XI of SMAN 3 Pariaman.
