Authors: Septiani Hani , Lestari Lusi , Ariani Dini , Heryani Sri
Published: July 2024

Introduction: Menstrual pain is pain felt during the menstrual cycle. The prevalence of primary Menstrual pain is generally experienced by adolescent girls aged 17-24 years by 67-90%. Menstrual pain has been identified as the most common menstruation-related cause of short-term school absenteeism among young girls. So menstrual pain in adolescents needs attention and information to provide appropriate treatment both pharmacologically and non-pharmacologically. Pharmacological treatment for menstrual pain can be overcome with analgesic drugs but causes addiction and dangerous side effects. One effective way to prevent menstrual pain is relaxation in the form of hand massage with endorphin massage techniques. This technique increases the release of endorphin and oxytocin hormones which function to reduce pain and based on research results show that the effectiveness of endorphin massage is more effective in reducing pain. Objective: The purpose of this research is to determine the description of female students' skills in carrying out endorphin massage techniques to relieve menstrual pain. Method: This study uses a descriptive research design. The sample in this study was determined using a quota sampling technique, namely as many as 32 respondents who fit the inclusion criteria. Result: The result of the research that respondents were able to carry out more endorphin massage technique, namely 20 people (62.5%), whereas 12 respondents (37.5%) were skilled at performing endorphin massage techniques.

Authors: Balakrishnan Priyanka , Srinivasan Daya , Eagappan A R Senthil
Published: July 2024

Tooth avulsion is a critical dental emergency where immediate and appropriate management is essential for the successful reimplantation of the tooth. The choice of storage medium during the extra-alveolar period significantly impacts the viability of periodontal ligament (PDL) cells, crucial for the long-term retention of the replanted tooth. This review examines various storage media proposed for avulsed teeth, assessing their pH, osmolality, and overall efficacy in maintaining PDL cell viability. A comprehensive literature search was conducted across databases including PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar, identifying media such as Hank’s Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS), milk, saline, propolis, coconut water, and more. Ideal storage media should exhibit antimicrobial properties, maintain physiological osmolality and pH, support PDL cell viability, and be readily available. HBSS is highlighted as the gold standard, with its ability to preserve PDL cells for up to 48 hours. Other effective media like milk, soy milk, and oral rehydration solutions are discussed for their accessibility and performance. Emerging media such as propolis and epigallocatechin-3-gallate show promise but require further research. This review emphasizes the importance of public awareness and accessibility to effective storage media to improve the prognosis of avulsed teeth.

Keywords: Storage Media, Dental Avulsion, PDL viability.

he tourism industry in Indonesia plays an important role in the national economy. The selection of travel class according to the needs and budget of tourists is an important aspect in the tourism industry. This research aims to develop a travel class classification model using dummy datasets and the K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm with RapidMiner software. The travel class dummy data set was obtained from the internet and modified according to research needs. The KNN algorithm was used to classify new travel classes based on previously classified dummy data. These dummy data were preprocessed and analyzed using RapidMiner software. The performance of the KNN model was evaluated using accuracy, precision, recall and F1-score. The results showed that the KNN algorithm with the values k = 1-2, k = 3-6, k = 8-10, k = 11-14 and k = 15 resulted in accuracy of 35.71%, 39.29%, 48.26%, 46.43% and 50.00%, respectively. This shows that the KNN algorithm with a value of k=15 produces the highest accuracy that can be effectively used to classify new travel classes based on dummy data.

Published: July 2024

Since 2020, the labour market in advanced economies has shown resilience against successive supply-side shocks. High job vacancy rates and historically low unemployment, despite a recent weakening of economic growth, imply a lower sensitivity of the labour market to changes in the business cycle, underscoring the need to re-evaluate labour market tightness, as it could increase the risks of wage-price spirals and more restrictive monetary policy. Ιn the present paper, we analyse the degree of labour market tightness and its implications for wages, inflation and monetary policy in two large open economies, the US and the euro area, and in a small open economy, Greece, that has undergone substantial labour market reforms, to explore whether post-pandemic labour market developments have common or idiosyncratic features. We find that policy support measures to address the pandemic and the energy crisis have decoupled unemployment from cyclical fluctuations, with the gap narrowing in 2023. Labour market tightness in the post-pandemic era has mainly been driven by a robust increase in labour demand, while labour supply has reverted to or exceeded pre-pandemic levels in the US, the euro area and Greece. Real compensation per employee lags labour productivity levels in all three economies, whereas it remains below its pre-pandemic level in the euro area and Greece. This suggests that the economies in question could tolerate some further catch-up in real wages in the short term without experiencing inflation.

The interpretation of the offense of breach of trust made in the published judgment refers to the examination of the impact of such elements in the manager’s behavior as ethics, purposefulness and, above all, the controversial nature of some of his decisions. This is the first such accurate opinion so far, affecting criminal liability. The court correctly separated the behaviors in relation to which one can have reasonable doubts as to the conduct of the company’s management, from the statutory description of the prohibited behavior. This description does not include such elements as ethics or the controversial nature of certain decisions, unless it leads to material damage, within the statutory limits of amounts. Therefore, the mere violation of them does not entail criminal liability

Published: July 2024

English pronunciation is a language skill that must be mastered well by students studying English, especially in the teaching department. Pronunciation that is less than perfect will result in misunderstandings and the meaning of the vocabulary can also be different. During the learning process in the classroom, the way of how to pronounce vocabulary is only given by the lecturer, which sometimes makes the class atmosphere less varied and students become less active. Therefore, this research discusses the effectiveness of videos on YouTube which are used as learning media during the English learning process in the classroom. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method with data in the form of the average results of students’ scores in English pronunciation which are tested orally. The research results show that the use of YouTube videos is very effective in improving students' pronunciation skills because the videos displayed come from native speakers who use British and American accents. In other words, videos on YouTube can become one of effective English pronunciation learning media. The research results also showed an increase of student scores in English pronunciation and students were more enthusiastic during the learning process in the classroom.
Spinal hydatid disease: A case report

Published: July 2024

Introduction: The parasitic tapeworm Echinococcus granulosus causes cystic echinococcosis, also known as hydatidosis. It is a serious medical condition that can show up in a lot of different ways. Although spinal involvement occurs in about 45% of bone echinococcosis cases, it represents only 0.5–4% of all echinococcosis cases. The disease can spread to the spine through hematogenous dissemination, direct invasion, or cerebrospinal fluid seeding from ruptured cysts. While the liver and lungs are the most commonly affected organs, spinal involvement can lead to severe complications, including radiculopathy, motor deficits, and paraparesis. Imaging, such as computed tomography (CT) and (MRI), typically makes the diagnosis by revealing cystic and osteolytic lesions.

Case Report: The patient is a 51-year-old male from the Kakheti region (a region in Georgia) who presented with progressive generalized weakness, nausea, vomiting, and lumbar pain. He had a history of spinal echinococcosis, diagnosed 15 years ago, but was unable to complete antiprotozoal treatment due to intolerance to albendazole. Over the years, his condition deteriorated, leading to lower paraplegia and urinary incontinence, necessitating a suprapubic cystostomy. Imaging revealed extensive septated cystic lesions in Th4-S1, which spread to the ribs and subcutaneous tissues. Despite neurosurgical intervention to reduce the cyst burden, the infestation persisted. Multiple hospitalizations were required for complications, such as urinary tract infections and pneumonia. Joint supervision managed the patient’s condition, but he continued to experience spherocyte discharge from numerous fistulas.

Conclusion: This case underscores the severe and chronic nature of spinal echinococcal infection, particularly when complete antiprotozoal treatment is not feasible. The patient did not experience severe neurological complications despite the extensive disease burden and the development of multiple vertebral-cutaneous fistulas, possibly due to the continuous drainage of spherocytes. This unusual clinical course highlights the importance of comprehensive management and the potential impact of innovative approaches on managing complex parasitic infections.

Published: July 2024

Despite increasing incidence across the world, not much evidence is available for understanding and effective management of loneliness. More recently, the COVID-19 pandemic, hard economic times, parental stress, marriage issues and other factors pressed the global population with severe loneliness in high-income, low and middle-income countries (LMICs). This literature review investigates the current landscape of loneliness in high and LMICs to identify new developments, knowledge gaps and insights. This literature search in electronic databases, PubMed/Medline and Google Scholar, to gather qualitative and quantitative evidence and evaluate reported symptoms, prevalence and variance of loneliness across populations. The review focused on unaddressed or contentious issues that are vital for evidence-based interventions. The incidence of loneliness among adolescents, married, children, and separated partners in high and LMIC resonated around vulnerability due to socio-economic, cultural, political and ethnic features. A global incidence of loneliness manifested through parental stress, family conflict, abuse and victimization, racial discrimination, loss of jobs, the COVID-19 pandemic and weak social connections. In children aged 4 to 10 years, loss of pro-social activities like hobbies, sports, school, family conflicts, child-parent disagreements, sedentary behaviors like increased screen time, health disparities and racism have been associated with loneliness. Loneliness has been deemed a trigger of poor social development, quality of life and family fragmentation. The global variance of loneliness can be attributed to unique risk factors. Loneliness implicates social isolation, stress, anxiety, and sleep disturbances among children, adolescents and elderly people. Apart from parental stress, the recent pandemic amplified its prevalence due to hard economic times, loss of jobs and curfews. Males, adolescents and children are the major victims of ensuing loneliness. nonetheless, our study established that physical exercise is an effective intervention against loneliness.

Published: July 2024

A Odontologia hospitalar é um conjunto de ações preventivas, diagnósticas e terapêuticas de doenças orofaciais e manifestações bucais de origem sistêmicas. As unidades de terapia intensiva (UTI) são voltadas ao cuidado do paciente em estado crítico em todos os níveis assistenciais. A falta ou a ineficiência da higiene bucal em pacientes em Unidade de Terapia Intensiva (UTI), quando associada a condições sistêmicas, fatores extrínsecos como o tabagismo e uso de medicamentos, favorece a formação e maior complexidade do biofilme bucal, propiciando o desenvolvimento de doenças de origem bucal e odontogênicas que influenciam no tempo de permanência no ambiente hospitalar. A revisão de literatura apresenta a importância do Cirurgião-Dentista nas equipes multidisciplinares de Unidades de Terapia Intensiva, além de discutir a atuação do cirurgião-dentista (CD) dentro destas unidades. Foram utilizados 30 artigos publicados no período de 2012 a 2022 que tratavam principalmente da importância do CD na UTI. Concluiu-se que se faz necessário a inserção do CD nas UTI, pois através da promoção, prevenção, diagnóstico e tratamento é possível uma recuperação mais rápida e com menos sequelas, proporcionando uma melhor qualidade de vida. A atuação ainda é bastante irregular, não há padronização na prestação de serviço. E ainda constatou-se que a maioria dos hospitais ainda não possuem um protocolo para cuidados com a higiene bucal e nem a presença de um CD. É considerável salientar que a prevenção e o controle do biofilme podem reduzir a quantidade de microrganismos presentes na cavidade bucal dos pacientes que se encontram internados em UTI.
