Authors: Mirah Dewanti Made Ayu
Published: October 2024

The Health Law in regulating the use of telemedicine/telemedicine is much more general than the regulations in the Kepmenkes and Permenkes. Because the Health Law is much more general and only mentions a few provisions in the mechanism of running telemedicine, namely only related to definitions, health efforts, and health service facilities. Based on the three rules described above, none of the provisions regulate the rights of patients or the legal protection of patients who use the utilization of telemedicine. The type of research used in this study is normative juridical research. Furthermore, the research approach in this study uses a stata approach. This research is descriptive, which makes a systematic description, regulation of telemedicine and patient protection in telemedicine services. The author concludes, first, Based on the three rules, no one mentions the existence of legal protection regarding patient rights in using telemedicine, but the legal protection referred to in the Health Law is only to patients in general. Second, the vagueness regarding the protection of these rights specifically in the implementation of telemedicine. So that the regulation related to the protection of patients' rights in the implementation of telemedicine still has several gaps that need to be regulated further.

Published: October 2024

ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the relationship between sacroiliac joint (SIJ) involvement and central sensitization (CS) in patients with axial
spondyloarthritis (axSpA).
Patients and Methods: Twenty-four patients with axSpA were included in this study. CS was investigated via pressure pain threshold
(PPT), temporal summation (TS), conditional pain modulation (CPM), and the central sensitization inventory (CSI). Sacroiliac joint
involvement was assessed using the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based Canadian Spondyloarthritis Research Consortium
(SPARCC) scoring system. CS-related parameters and SPARCC score correlations were analyzed.
Results: The median (IQR) sacroiliac PPT score for the right SIJ was calculated as 17.47 (4.43) and 17.67 (4.57) for the left SIJ. In the TS
measurement, the right SIJ TS median (IQR) value was calculated as 4.0 (3.5) and 4.0 (2.75) for the left side. The median (IQR) value
was 149.67 (107.5) for CPM and 45.0 (27.75) for CSI. The median (IQR) sacroiliac inflammation score was calculated as 3.0 (8.75),
and the median (IQR) structural score was calculated as 7.0 (11.5). No correlation was found between SPARCC scores and PPT, TS,
CPM, and CSI values.
Conclusion: In axSpA patients, there was no association observed between pain sensitivity measures and sacroiliac involvement.
Further comprehensive studies are required, taking into account the complex nature of CS.

EMPREGO DA HISTOPATOLOGIA NO DIAGNÓSTICO DIFERENCIAL DE LESÕES NODULARES ESPLÊNICAS EM CÃES SUBMETIDOS A ESPLENECTOMIA
Authors: Silva Juliana Gonçalves da , Salzedas Breno Aguiar , Xavier José Guilherme
Published: October 2024

O baço é um órgão híbrido, vascular e linfoide, de tamanho variável, associado a múltiplas funções, como armazenamento e filtração sanguínea e reciclagem de ferro. No entanto, a esplenectomia é um procedimento usual, principalmente nos casos de esplenomegalia, associada a freqüente redução da sobrevida. Este estudo propõe a caracterização histopatológica das lesões nodulares esplênicas em cães esplenectomizados, com base em cortes corados por hematoxilina-eosina, considerando sua natureza e relevância em termos sistêmicos. Foram avaliados 178 nódulos esplênicos, 115 não neoplásicos e 63 neoplásicos. Predominaram cães entre 8 e 13 anos de idade, com destaque para cães das raças labrador e golden retriever. As lesões não neoplásicas compuseram 64,7% das amostras, com ênfase nos casos de hiperplasias nodulares (34,82%). As neoplasias representaram 35,3% das condições, dentre as quais estão processos raros ou ainda não relatados em baço de cães, como um mielolipoma, um linfangioma e um angioma de células litorais. Em consonância com a literatura, o processo neoplásico mais diagnosticado foi o hemangiossarcoma (21.34%). A escassez de métodos diagnósticos alternativos à histopatologia e o elevado risco de ruptura lesional e consequente hemoperitônio fundamentam a realização de esplenectomias em elevada proporção dos casos. No entanto, nossos achados indicam o predomínio de lesões benignas e fortalecem o esforço pelo desenvolvimento de métodos menos agressivos que a esplenectomia para o diagnóstico diferencial das lesões nodulares esplênicas.

Paddlefish movement and dam passage in the Ohio and Kanawha Rivers, West Virginia
Authors: Welsh Stuart
Published: October 2024

The Paddlefish (Polyodon spathula), a large-bodied and highly migratory species of large river systems, has experienced population declines or extirpation in parts of its native range. As an effort to reestablish a Paddlefish population in the Ohio River of West Virginia, the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources has stocked fingerling Paddlefish in the previous two decades. Post-stocking studies could assess the status of the reintroduced population, which includes collecting information on their seasonal movements and dam passage frequency through navigation dams of the Ohio and Kanawha Rivers. Using acoustic telemetry techniques, we monitored seasonal movements and assessed dam passage of five Paddlefish in the Robert C. Byrd Pool of the Ohio and Kanawha rivers. Paddlefish were highly mobile with two individuals using the entire R.C. Byrd Pool during the 11-month study period. Most movements occurred during the expected spawning period of April and May, where all individuals frequented the upper section of the pool in the Kanawha River. Downstream passage was documented for one individual at the R.C. Byrd lock during July 2023, but no evidence of upstream passage was documented for the locks at Racine (Ohio River) or Winfield (Kanawha River). Tagging of additional Paddlefish would be beneficial to increase sample size for future assessments and continue efforts toward the long-term conservation and management of Ohio River Paddlefish.

Authors: Zimmerman Corinne , Vealey Robin , Myers Nicholas
Published: October 2024

Team culture can be considered essential for the success of any sport team, and it is known that leaders of all kinds play a unique role in making team success a reality. Utilizing survey tools developed by industrial/organizational psychology, this study investigated how athlete perceptions of head coach and peer leadership behaviors are predictive of athlete perceptions of team culture. A sample of 155 current collegiate athletes representing 17 NCAA teams across three divisions participated in an online survey. A path model analysis found that perceptions of leadership behaviors of both head coaches and peer leaders were significantly predictive of athlete perceptions of team culture. Further, perceptions of head coach leadership behavior were predictive of perceptions of group communication, while perceptions of peer leadership were more significantly related to the social aspects of team culture. The results of this study provide insight into the unique ways in which athletes’ perception of leadership can influence team culture and can aid in the understanding of how team culture works within a sport context.

With the need to reduce the environmental impacts caused by fossil fuels and minimize the problems caused by a possible crisis arising from price increases or even energy shortages, alternative and renewable ways to replace such non-renewable sources are sought. them. Among the various forms, there is biogas, which can be used as fuel in internal combustion engines. In this context, the present work aimed to evaluate a motor generator adapted to biogas. A 4-stroke, single-cylinder, gasoline-powered motor generator was used, with a nominal power of 6.5 HP. The tests were carried out, taking 6 times with an interval of 10 minutes each, where the rotations and energy consumption of the motor were measured, in addition to the voltage and electric current generated to supply the resistive load. The resistive load used in the motor generator was provided by lighting seven incandescent lamps of 100W nominal each, resulting in a verified measurement of 510W, which was maintained throughout the test. The motor-generator set consumed an average volumetric flow of 1.97m³ h-¹ and an average mass flow of 1.228 kg h-¹ for a generator power of 501 W and a set efficiency of 7.53%.
Global Warming OR Not？
Authors: Tu Haoyang
Published: October 2024

Recent years have seen rising Earth's temperatures and a shrinking Antarctic land area. Studying factors affecting global warming and finding solutions to slow it is crucial. Using the Pettitt mutation point detection method, we examined March temperatures over the past decade and identified a significant change in March 2015. Predictive models (ARIMA and LSTM) forecast similar future temperatures, with the LSTM model showing slightly higher accuracy. Gray correlation and multiple linear regression analyses identified CO2 as the primary factor influencing global temperatures. Reducing CO2 emissions is essential to curb global warming.

In recent years, with the development of the Internet, the originally marginalized sexual minorities have appeared more and more frequently in the public field of vision, but due to the existence of proximal pressure and distal pressure, the psychological problems of sexual minorities still cannot be ignored. In order to better understand the living situation and mental health level of sexual minorities, reduce public opinion and disputes caused by gender knowledge errors, through literature collection, case interview, questionnaire survey, spss statistical analysis and other research methods, we integrated the definition, status and type of sexual minorities, stressors, social support status, mental health status and influence. The results show that the stressors faced by sexual minorities can reduce their perception of social support and thus reduce their mental health level. Therefore, increasing social support for sexual minorities can improve their mental health level. Finally, through the form of innovative programs to let more people pay attention to and understand this marginalized group, and strive to eliminate the public's cognitive bias towards sexual minorities.

Authors: Żurek Ewelina
Published: October 2024

W artykule ukazane zostały relacje nauczyciel – uczeń w perspektywie praw dziecka. Instytucję szkoły i nauczycieli przedstawiono w kontekście dynamicznie zmieniającego się świata, w czasach ponowoczesności. Zmiany te dotyczą struktury formalnej szkoły, a także zmieniających się relacji nauczyciel – uczeń. Prawidłowo zachodząca relacja pomiędzy tymi podmiotami jest podstawą sukcesów w edukacji i korzystnie wpływa na efektywność nauczania. Główny zaś kierunek relacji zakłada podejście ku relacjom antyautorytarnym, demokratycznym, które skupione są na podmiotowości, dialogu, poszanowaniu godności i przestrzeganiu praw dziecka. Celem badań było poznanie relacji między nauczycielami a uczniami pod kątem znajomości i przestrzegania praw dziecka. Relacje te były analizowane w perspektywie wybranych praw wynikających z Konwencji o prawach dziecka. Badanie przeprowadzono metodą sondażu diagnostycznego. Analiza materiału badawczego wykazała, że w relacjach nauczyciel – uczeń nie przestrzega się podstawowych praw dziecka i dochodzi do ich łamania. Wpływa to negatywnie na kształtowanie się prawidłowych, opartych na podmiotowości i szacunku wzajemnych relacji. Respektowanie i przestrzeganie praw dziecka powinno stać się nadrzędnym celem relacji nauczyciel – uczeń w przestrzeni edukacyjnej.
