Estudo de 1.000 Casos de Câncer Gástrico Análise Crítica das Classificações
Authors: Nogueira Ana Margarida Miguel Ferreira , Raso Pedro , Tafuri Washington Luíz
Published: August 2023

Os autores estudaram 1.000 casos de câncer gástrico levantados dos arquivos de biopsia e necropsia do Departamento de Anatomia Patológica e Medicina Legal da Faculdade de Medicina da UFMG. Após análise dos casos, tentou-se enquadrá-los nas classificações de Lauren, Kubo, Mulligan-Rember/Teglbjaerg e Chun-Ming. Os casos de padrão misto foram classificados de acordo com o tipo predominante. Correlacionou-se, quando possível, o quadro histológico com o sexo, idade, aspecto macroscópico, cor e evolução. Após análise do matérial segundo as quatro classificações acima referidas, concluíram: 1) a classificação que melhor se adaptou ao estudo foi a de Kubo: 2) o câncer gástrico foi mas frequente no homem: 3) a diferença das médias de idade dos casos de biopsia e necropsia não foi significativa: 4) nos casos biopsiados que tinham biopsia prévia, não houve discrepância nos diagnósticos: 5) os adenocarcinomas tiveram maior incidência entre os 50 e 60 anos, em ambos os sexos: 6) os carcinomas apresentaram incidência alta em faixas etárias mais baixas (40-49 anos) especialmente no sexo feminino: 7) preponderou nos mulatos seguido de perto pelos brancos: foi muito menos frequente nos negros: 8) a sede mais freqüente foi o antro e o piloro: 9) predominou o tipo estenosante nos carcinomas e o ulcerado e úlcero-vegetante nos adenocarcinomas.

Exposure assessment of non-electric ice resurfacer operators in indoor ice rinks: a pilot study
Authors: McLennon Travis , Hon Chun-Yip
Published: August 2023

Exposure of ice resurfacer operators to indoor air contaminants was measured in six indoor ice arenas. A standardized questionnaire on technical and operational features was employed and indoor airborne concentrations of carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), nitric oxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and total volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were measured. Air samples were collected using a range of direct reading instruments attached to the driver's seat of the resurfacer. The range of mean exposure concentrations via positional sampling (i.e. as close as able to the operator's breathing zone) were 5.7-7.4 ppm, 694-2171 ppm, <0.5 to 0.5 ppm, and < 0.1 to 0.2 ppm, for CO, CO2, NO, and NO2, respectively. Exposure levels for SO2 and VOC were below detection. Overall, each of the measured indoor air contaminants was found to be below its respective occupational exposure limits (OEL), suggesting that the risk of hazardous exposure is low. The use of natural gas as a fuel source is believed to contribute to low contaminant concentrations.
Biological Monitoring via Urine Samples to Assess Healthcare Workers’ Exposure to Hazardous Drugs: A Scoping Review
Authors: Hon Chun-Yip , Motiwala Naqiyah
Published: August 2023

Although biological monitoring is beneficial as it assesses all possible routes of exposure, urine sampling of healthcare workers exposed to hazardous drugs is currently not routine. Therefore, a scoping review was performed on this subject matter to understand what is known about exposure and identify knowledge gaps. A literature search was performed on three databases: ProQuest, Web of Science, and PubMed. Articles published between 2005 and 2020 and written in English were included. Overall, this review consisted of 39 full-text articles. The studies varied with respect to design, sample sizes, sample collection times, and drugs examined. Many articles found at least one sample had detectable levels of a hazardous drug. Studies reported urinary drug contamination despite controls being employed. Knowledge gaps included a lack of an exposure limit, lack of a standardized sampling method, and lack of correlation between health effects and urinary contamination levels. Due to differences in sample collection and analysis, a comparison between studies was not possible. Nevertheless, it appears that biological monitoring via urine sampling is meaningful to aid in understanding healthcare workers’ exposure to hazardous drugs. This is supported by the fact that most studies reported positive urine samples and that case-control studies had statistically significant findings.
Occupational Exposure to Antineoplastic Drugs: Identification of Job Categories Potentially Exposed throughout the Hospital Medication System
Authors: Hon Chun-Yip , Teschke Kay , Chua Prescillia , Venners Scott A. , Nakashima Lynne
Published: August 2023

Objectives: Studies examining healthcare workers' exposure to antineoplastic drugs have focused on the drug preparation or drug administration areas. However, such an approach has probably underestimated the overall exposure risk as the drugs need to be delivered to the facility, transported internally and then disposed. The objective of this study is to determine whether drug contamination occurs throughout a facility and, simultaneously, to identify those job categories that are potentially exposed.

Methods: This was a multi-site study based in Vancouver, British Columbia. Interviews were conducted to determine the departments where the drugs travel. Subsequent site observations were performed to ascertain those surfaces which frequently came into contact with antineoplastic drugs and to determine the job categories which are likely to contact these surfaces. Wipe samples were collected to quantify surface contamination.

Results: Surface contamination was found in all six stages of the hospital medication system. Job categories consistently found to be at risk of exposure were nurses, pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, and pharmacy receivers. Up to 11 job categories per site may be at risk of exposure at some point during the hospital medication system.

Conclusion: We found drug contamination on select surfaces at every stage of the medication system, which indicates the existence of an exposure potential throughout the facility. Our results suggest that a broader range of workers are potentially exposed than has been previously examined. These results will allow us to develop a more inclusive exposure assessment encompassing all healthcare workers that are at risk throughout the hospital medication system.
Case Study in a Working Environment Highlighting the Divergence between Sound Level and Workers’ Perception towards Noise
Authors: Hon Chun-Yip , Tchernikov Illia , Fairclough Craig , Behar Alberto
Published: August 2023

Excessive noise levels are a prevalent issue in food processing operations and, although there have been numerous studies on occupational noise, no single study has used a concurrent mixed-methods approach. Employing this study design allows for an understanding of the level of convergence (similarity) between measured noise levels and workers' attitudes and perceptions towards noise. This, in turn, allows for the identification of potential challenges with respect to the implementation of hearing conservation efforts. In this study, spot noise measurements were collected using a sound level meter. One-on-one interviews were conducted with workers to determine attitudes and perceptions towards noise in their workplaces. Subsequently, the results of the noise measurements (quantitative data) were integrated with the survey responses (qualitative data) to identify convergence. The majority of the noise measurements were found to exceed 85 dBA-the criterion mandated by the local occupational health and safety legislation. Although all study participants felt that it was noisy in the workplace, a large proportion of respondents indicated that the noise was not bothersome. With workers' perception being contradictory to the measured noise levels, it is a challenge to implement hearing conservation measures unless changes are made to raise the awareness of the risks associated with excessive noise exposure.
Emissions and health risks from the use of 3D printers in an occupational setting
Authors: Chan Felix L , Hon Chun-Yip , Tarlo Susan M. , Rajaram Nikhil , House Ronald
Published: August 2023

The aim of this study was to determine concentrations of particulates and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from 3D printers using polylactic acid (PLA) filaments at a university workroom to assess exposure and health risks in an occupational setting. Under typical-case (one printer) and worst-case (three printers operating simultaneously) scenarios, particulate concentra- tion (total and respirable), VOCs and formaldehyde were measured. Air samples were collected in the printing room and adjacent hallway. Size resolved levels of nano-diameter particles were also collected in the printing room. Total particulate levels were higher in the worst-case scenario (0.7 mg/m3) vs. typical-case scenario (0.3 mg/m3). Respirable particulate and formaldehyde con- centrations were similar between the two scenarios. Size-resolved measurements showed that most particles ranged from approximately 27 to 116 nm. Total VOC levels were approximately 6-fold higher during the worst-case scenario vs. typical situation with isopropyl alcohol being the predominant VOC. Airborne concentrations in the hallway were generally lower than inside the printing room. All measurements were below their respective occupational exposure limits. In summary, emissions of particulates and VOCs increased when multiple 3D printers were operating simultaneously. Airborne levels in the adjacent hallway were similar between the two scenarios. Overall, data suggest a low risk of significant and persistent adverse health effects. Nevertheless, the health effects attributed to 3D printing are not fully known and adherence to good hygiene principles is recommended during use of this technology.

Adapting to the Ontario Labour Market: A Critical Assessment of the Role of Family in the Labour Market Integration of Immigrants
Authors: Shields John , Lujan Omar , Bauder Harald , Gintova Maria
Published: August 2023

For more than a decade, academic research has pointed out that economic class immigrants in Canada experience significant levels of underemployment. Studies in Canada, however, have tended to ignore the role of the family in the process of immigrant labour market integration. The purpose of this research is to study the labour trajectory of immigrant families highlighting their experiences with barriers to finding employment, their strategies for overcoming these barriers, and how their family story interacts with this process. Also, this study sheds light on immigrants’ experiences with employment services and it includes the perception of service providers about economic class immigrants’ integration into the Canadian labour market. A qualitative study of economic class immigrants and their families was utilized employing semistructured interviews and focus groups in order to examine their experiences with the labour market in the Great Toronto Area.

Published: August 2023

Almost ten thousand people are affected by cardiac arrest, and the prevalence tends to increase every year in Indonesia. Nursing students need to have skills in performing basic life support (BLS) to increase the survival rate of patients with cardiac arrest inside or outside the hospital. An effective method for facilitating students in gaining such skills is educational simulation. This study aims to identify the effectiveness of the simulation method in improving students' skills in providing BLS. This is a quantitative quasi-experiment with a pre-posttest design. The sample is all fourth-year students in Nursing at Poltekkes Kemenkes Mataram who have had emergency classes in the previous semester. Data were collected using observation sheets and analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test to identify students' skills before and after they were given educational simulations. Before the educational video method was implemented, most respondents had insufficient skills in carrying out BLS, with 11 people (55%) falling into this category. Only two respondents (10%) demonstrated good skills in conducting BLS. After the simulation, all respondents acquired the skills to perform BLS in the "good" category, with 32 people (82%) exhibiting these skills. There were no respondents who had sufficient or poor BLS skills. Educational simulation significantly influenced students' skills in performing BLS (p=0.000). It can be concluded that the simulation method was effective in improving the students' skills in performing BLS. Educational simulation of BLS can be applied as an alternative method in the learning process.

The community still perceives stunting as a negative stigma. It potentially risks the mental health of both the child and the mother. Mother resilience is crucial to deal with biopsychosocial stressors because of stunting. This research analyzes the effects of the REKIS (Resiliensi Komunitas Ibu Dengan Anak Stunting) innovation on knowledge, attitudes, behavior, and resilience regarding stunting in mothers with stunted children. This research was a quantitative study with a quasi-experimental design. The population was mothers with children diagnosed with stunting in the Gilingan Surakarta Health Center. There were 60 respondents with the total sampling technique, 30 in the control and 30 in the intervention groups. Pre-test and post-test data were collected using knowledge, attitude, behavior, and maternal resilience questionnaires. Data analysis used the Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test to test the difference in mean scores between the control and intervention groups. In addition, the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test analyzes the difference in mean scores between the pre-and post-test. The results showed that all respondents had similar demographic characteristics (age, occupation, and education). Both groups had significant differences in pre and post-test mean scores on maternal knowledge, attitudes, behavior, and resilience (p<0.05). Significant differences were in the overall pre- and post-test mean scores on maternal knowledge, attitudes, and resilience (p<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in the pre-and post-test on maternal behavior. In conclusion, The REKIS innovation can increase the resilience of mothers with stunted children.

Research indicates that fermented products have nutritional and non-nutritional components that can improve health. Milk is commonly used for fermentation products because its rich nutrients support the growth of Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB). This paper investigates antibacterial activity and 16S rRNA gene sequencing of LAB from homemade fermented milk in Medan City, Indonesia. This paper was an experimental study by In Vitro Models conducted in August-October 2019. This study used three different homemade fermented milk (SF2-4) and positive control of manufactured fermented milk (SF1). All isolated LABs underwent an antibacterial assay by the Disc diffusion method against two pathogens, including Escherichia coli (Gram-negative) and Staphylococcus aureus (Gram-positive). In addition, there was molecular identification based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The zone of inhibition from samples against Escherichia coli ranged from 5.600-12.23 mm. The most potent antibacterial activity was found in SF4 (12.23 mm) and the least in SF2 (5.60 mm). Some samples (SF1 and SF2) showed no antibacterial effect against Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. The antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus bacteria was found only in SF2 and SF3, which were 6.60 mm and 7.14 mm, respectively. Based on the characteristics, enumeration, and antibacterial activity, the authors chose isolated LAB from SF4 for molecular identification based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing. SF4 isolates had a similar 16S rRNA molecule to Lactobacillus fermentum strain NBRC 15885 with a homology level of 99.78%. In conclusion, some homemade fermented milk in Medan City, Indonesia, are potential probiotics.

The outcome of this research work is focused on optimized the design of wireless link for an FPGA based RemoteTerminal Unit (RTU). A situation representing multiple RTUs communicating with one Telecontrol Interface (TCI) developed to address optimized implementation of wireless SCADA. It was then further verified by means of benchmarking. The hardware implementation and verification of this particular RTU design has been done using a starter kit based on XILINX Spartan-3 Series FPGA with 500K logic gates and MHX-2400 frequency hopping2.4 GHz spread-spectrum communications module which is used as Telecontrol Interface. The FPGA based RTU isflexible in terms of I/Os, CPU and radio related configurations and any expansion in design can be accommodated quickly if needed as FPGA based designs are reconfigurable. However, the integration of MHX-2400 had been examined and found suitable as Telecontrol Interface for this development.

Published: August 2023

Seiring dengan berkembangnya zaman dan teknologi transaksi jual beli mengalami kemajuan yang sangat pesat. Jual beli akun Twitter adalah salah satu contoh dari perkembangan teknologi. Akun dalam praktik transaksi jual beli tentunya harus memenuhi syarat perjanjian dalam Pasal 1320 KUHPerdata. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis keabsahan jual beli akun Twitter yang ditinjau dari Kitab UndangUndang Hukum Perdata dan mengenai asas kepastian hukum dalam transaksi tersebut. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah jenis penelitian yuridis normatif dan menggunakan pendekatan perundangundangan dan pendekatan konseptual. Hasil penelitian menujukkan bahwa keabsahan jual beli akun Twitter yang ditinjau dari Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Perdata adalah tidak sah karena tidak memenuhi syarat keempat yaitu sebab yang halal. Adapun objek yang dijual adalah barang yang dapat diakses secara gratis namun terdapat pemanfaatan kesempatan oleh pihak penjual yang mendapat keuntungan dan Twitter melarang adanya pemindahtanganan akun. Dikarenakan syarat keempat dalam perjanjian tidak terpenuhi maka perjanjian tersebut dapat batal demi hukum atau statusnya tidak berkekuatan hukum yang mengakibatkan tidak adanya kepastian dalam hukum. Guna mengatasi probolematika tersebut maka diperlukan adanya pengaturan mengenai transaksi jual beli akun.

Tujuan khusus penelitian adalah untuk menjelaskan dan menggambarkan: penyelesaian pelanggaran adat menurut Pranata Perdamaian Adat Kaum. Untuk mencapai tujuan khusus tersebut digunakan pendekatan kualitatif dan antropologi hukum. Teknik pengumpulan data adalah pengamatan, wawancara mendalam, dan pengumpulan data sekunder. Sedangkan analisis data adalah kualitatif, yang dilakukan secara terus menerus sejak awal penelitian sampai dengan akhir penelitian. Hasil penelitian adalah: Penyelesaian pelanggaran adat menurut Pranata Perdamaian Adat Kaum. Dalam penyelesaian sengketa ini pertamakali diselesaikan oleh para fungsionaris adat Kaum, yaitu terdiri dari Kepala Kaum,Wakil Kepala Kaum, Orang Tua Kaum, dan Pegawai Syarak Kaum. Apabila penyelesaian sengketa melalui fungsionaris adat Kaum tidak berhasil, maka sengketa tersebut akan dibawa oleh para pihak yang bersengketa melalui fungsionaris adat (Penghulu Adat) dari Badan Musyawarah Adat (BMA) di desa (kelurahan), kecamatan, dan kabupaten. Pranata perdamaian adat Kaum ini sifatnya tidak statis, artinya dalam menentukan denda adat setiap pelanggaran adat tidak selalu sama tetapi berdasarkan keadaan dan kemampuan para pihak yang bersengketa. Penentuan denda adat ini lebih bersifat sekunder, sedangkan yang bersifat primer adalah “damai”, yaitu adanya kehidupan antara warga adat Kaum, yang saling bantu membantu (tolong menolong atau gotomg royong), suasana persahabatan, suasana keakraban, dan hubungan kekeluargaan.

Background and Objectives We conducted this study to propose a nystagmus based screening system (NBSS) for detecting vestibular schwannoma (VS) in patients with asymmetric sensorineural hearing loss (ASNHL).Subjects and Method Data of 90 patients diagnosed with VS were retrospectively analysed. For the 1:1 allocation, 90 ASNHL patients who were not diagnosed with VS were sequentially enrolled as the non-VS group and retrospectively analysed. Every participant received pure tone audiometry (PTA), a bedside vestibular function test, and magnetic resonance imaging. A total of 122 patients who passed the exclusion criteria were selected for the study.Results The sensitivity and specificity of the abnormal criteria of auditory brainstem response (ABR) for the detection of VS in patients (n=70) showing analyzable wave response were 80.0% and 52.0%, respectively. However, when we included all of the patients (n=122) who did not show analyzable wave response in ABR, the sensitivity and specificity of the abnormal criteria decreased to 34.8% and 68.4%, respectively. NBSS is composed of vertical spontaneous nystagmus, direction changing gaze evoked nystagmus, ipsilesional monophasic type head shaking nystagmus (HSN), and ipsilesional to contralesional biphasic type HSN. The sensitivity and specificity of the NBSS were 56.5% and 82.9%, respectively.Conclusion NBSS may be used as a supplementary test to ABR in detecting VS of ASNHL.

Pain is one of the problems encountered in patients with surgical cases. If not handled properly, pain will cause discomfort, sleep disturbances, and a decrease in quality of life. Families are expected to be able to teach deep breathing relaxation techniques to patients in managing pain at home with mild to moderate intensity. To achieve this capacity, community service activities are held which aim to improve the family's ability to perform deep breathing relaxation techniques. The activity took the form of a short training in the orchid room at Sumedang Hospital, which was attended by 16 people. The pre and post test results showed an increase in family capacity in performing deep breathing relaxation techniques (p=0.01). Thus, the activities carried out are useful for increasing family capacity in managing pain. It is hoped that this activity will continue to be carried out in other similar cases with the aim of relieving pain and improving quality of life.
