A Meta-analysis of the Executive Function components Inhibition, Shifting, and Attention in Intellectual Disabilities
Authors: Spaniol Malin , Danielsson Henrik
Published: July 2019

This is a preprint of a manuscript that is currently under review. Analysis code and data can be found in the accompanying OSF project https://osf.io/njsd3/. BackgroundExecutive function is a concept for higher-order cognitive functions which havethe role of controller and modulator of cognitive abilities. The consensus inthe literature is that people with an intellectual disability perform significantlylower on executive function tasks than groups matched on chronological age.The comparison with groups matched on mental age is less clear. Therefore,the objective of this meta-analysis was to investigate to what extent executivefunction is impaired in people with intellectual disability compared to atypically developing control group matched on mental age. It was alsoinvestigated if the executive function component and intellectual disabilityaetiology moderated the effect.MethodsEligibility criteria were participants with intellectual disability (IQ < 75)without a dual diagnosis; a comparison group matched on mental age; executivefunction outcome reported in a group comparison study design withn > 10. Working memory tasks and ratings of executive function were notincluded. The literature search yielded 6637 potentially interesting articles.26 studies (with 99 effect sizes) including 1395 participants were included inthe quantitative synthesis.ResultsA multilevel random-effects meta-analysis found that people with intellectualdisability performed statistically significantly lower than the mental age matchedgroup on the executive function tasks, g = -0.34, CI 95%= [-0.53,-0.16]. However, the heterogeneity between effect sizes was large. Theintellectual disability aetiology moderator was significant, but it only reducedthe heterogeneity marginally.ConclusionThe overall conclusion is that individuals with an intellectual disabilityhave more problems with executive function tasks than mental age-matchedcontrols. Limitations are the large unexplained variance and the remarkablyhigh number (69) of different tests that were used, which make more detailedconclusions problematic. This meta-analysis implies that future studies needto be of better quality, have higher power, and to a higher degree use thesame executive function tests.
The Effects of Needs for Security and Certainty on Economic Beliefs: The Role of Political Engagement and the Welfare State model
Authors: Czarnek Gabriela , Kossowska Małgorzata
Published: July 2019

We suggest that the effects of needs for security and certainty (NSC) on economic beliefs result from potentially competing dispositional (political engagement) and contextual (the country-level political narrative around the welfare state) influences. An analysis of data from the 2016 European Social Survey (N = 40,870) showed that at low levels of political engagement, NSC is associated with left-wing beliefs. However, at high levels of political engagement, the NSC effects are conditional on a country’s welfare state model: NSC is related to right-wing beliefs in Liberal, Continental, and Southern types, but the effects are non-significant in the Nordic type and the reverse under the Eastern type. Analysis of 2018 round of the same survey (N = 45,575) corroborated the main findings (except the Southern type for which NSC effects were non-significant). This study advances knowledge on the psychological roots of economic beliefs and contributes to understanding of people’s political choices.
A Computational Analysis of the Dynamics of R Style Based on 94 Million Lines of Code from All CRAN Packages in the Past 20 Years
Authors: Yen Chai-Yi , Chang Mia Huai-Wen , Chan Chung-hong
Published: July 2019

There are so many programming style variations in R. We have analyzed 94 million lines of R code and quantified the evolution in popularity of 12 style-elements from 1998 to 2018. We attribute 3 main factors that drive changes in programming style: effect of style-guides, effect of introducing new features, and effect of editors. We have identified community-specific programming style variations. For example, there are programming communities which do not use snake_case at all. A consensus in programming style is forming. We have summarised it into a _Consensus-based Style_.
Relationships and comparative reliability of ultrasound derived measures of upper and lower limb muscle thickness, and estimates of muscle area from anthropometric measures
Authors: Budzynski-Seymour Emily , Fisher James , Giessing Jürgen , Gentil Paulo , Steele James
Published: July 2019

Abstract: The gold standard measure for assessing muscular size currently is magnetic resonance imaging; however, it is expensive and not easily accessible. Both anthropometric techniques (AN) and ultrasound (UT) are commonly employed methods to measure muscle size. However, the degree to which these approaches offer similar information has not been examined. The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between UT and AN measurements of muscle thickness in addition to their comparative reliability. Fifteen males (27±9 years) volunteered to take part in the study and underwent both AN and UT measures, taken to assess their upper arm and upper leg muscle size on separate days a week apart. Correlations between the two measures ranged from r=0.548-0.918 (p<0.05) suggesting a good relationship and thus comparable information. Results showed similar coefficient of variation (CV%) for the upper leg (AN 2.3%, UT 2.4%), but slightly greater reliability for UT results for the upper arm (AN 5.5%, UT 2.8%). It appears that both methods are reliable approaches to measurement of muscle size, though AN likely represents a lower cost and greater ease of use. Researchers should consider this when deciding upon which approach to use in the assessment of muscle size in the absence of gold standard approaches.
Pediatric Lung isolation in a limited resource setup: a case report
Authors: Baral Pankaj , Prasad Jagat Narayan , Bhandari Sabin , Thapa Pratistha
Published: July 2019

Rationale: Pediatric lung isolation is a great challenge to an anesthesiologist. Despite various advances in techniques and equipment in lung isolation, most of the sophisticated devices are unavailable in remote setups. Blind techniques have been used, but they have a low success rate. Patient concerns: Here we report a case of a five year old male child who had cough and fever for one month. CT scan of chest revealed right sided empyema thoracis for which decortication was planned under general anaesthesia with one lung ventilation. Double lumen tube for this patient was not commercially available and we did not have a paediatric fiberoptic bronchoscope, which would fit inside the endotracheal tube necessary for the patient. Interventions: After anesthesia induction, an adult fiberoptic bronchoscope was used as an aid for insertion of bougie into the left mainstem bronchus followed by rail roading the endotracheal tube over the bougie for lung isolation. Outcomes: Surgery then proceeded in left lateral position with a right thoracotomy under a quiet surgical field. Conclusion: In case of unavailability of paediatric fiberoptic bronchoscope, an adult fiberoptic bronchoscope and a bougie can aid in successful lung isolation in paediatric patients.

Primary Infective Pyomyositis of the Hip Abductors Presenting as Trochanteric
Bursitis
Authors: GA Sheridan , DP Johnson , EJ Heffernan , PD Curtin
Published: July 2019

Introduction: Pyomyositis is an uncommon suppurative infection of skeletal muscle. In recent times, it is
becoming more prevalent in the context of immunosuppression and diabetes and it is known to show a
preponderance for pelvic girdle muscles. We present a case of a primary infective pyomyositis of the gluteal
musculature in a diabetic patient which presented initially as a typical greater trochanteric bursitis.
Case Report: A 52 year old female presented with sudden onset left lateral thigh pain localized to the
greater trochanteric region. Relevant comorbidities included a BMI of 35, uncontrolled non insulindependent diabetes mellitus and hypertension. Her HbA1c on presentation was 97mmol/mol. She had a
raised CRP of 92 with a normal white cell count. MRI confirmed an ill-defined collection overlying the
gluteal tendon insertions with extensive surrounding oedema. The patient was surgically managed and
underwent incision and drainage through a direct lateral incision. Samples sent were positive for
staphylococcus aureus and the patient was commenced on IV flucloxacillin. They progressed to a full
recovery.
Conclusion: We recommend that consideration be given to infective pyomyositis in the differential for
patients presenting acutely with trochanteric hip pain. Pyrexia, raised inflammatory markers and a history
of diabetes mellitus or other immunosuppressive conditions should raise clinical suspicion for occult
infection even in the setting of a common clinical complaint such as trochanteric hip pain. MRI is essential
in achieving early diagnosis and surgical drainage and medical management can lead to a good clinical
recovery.

Comparison of Radiobiological Models for Radiation Therapy Plans of Prostate Cancer: Three-dimensional Conformal versus Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy
Authors: Mesbahi A , Rasouli N , Mohammadzadeh M , Nasiri Motlagh B , Ozan Tekin H
Published: July 2019

Purpose: In the current study, using different radiobiological models, tumor control probability (TCP) and normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) of radiotherapy plans were calculated for three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT) and intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) of prostate cancer.Methods and Materials: 10 prostate plans were randomly selected among patients undergoing radiation therapy of prostate cancer. For each patient, 3D-CRT and IMRT plans were designed to deliver, on average 76 Gy and 82 Gy to planning target volume, respectively. Using different radiobiological models including Poisson, equivalent uniform dose (EUD) and Lyman-Kutcher-Burman (LKB), TCP and NTCP were calculated for prostate and critical organs including bladder, rectum and femoral heads.Results: IMRT plans provided significantly lower NTCP for bladder, rectum and femoral heads using LKB and EUD models (p-value <0.05). The EUD-calculated TCP for prostate cancer revealed no considerable improvement for IMRT plans relative to 3D-CRT plans. However, the TCPs calculated by Poisson model were dependent on α/β, and higher TCP for IMRT relative to 3D-CRT was seen for α/β higher than 5.Conclusion: It can be concluded that IMRT plans were superior to 3D-CRT plans in terms of estimated NTCP for studied critical organs. On the other hand, different mathematical models provided different quantitative outcome for TCP of prostate cancer plans. More clinical studies are suggested to confirm the accuracy of studied radiobiological models.

Published: July 2019

The overall aims of this study are to conduct a needs analysis of curriculum design of the “Human Rights, Citizenship and Democracy” course for the teacher candidates at the Department of Classroom Teaching and to propose a curriculum design. In this study, convergent parallel mixed methods design comprising both qualitative and quantitative data collection is used. In the qualitative aspect of the needs analysis, in-depth interviews with eight primary school teachers who taught or have been teaching the “Human Rights, Citizenship and Democracy” course in the fourth year of the primary school, three instructors from Department of Classroom Teaching at the Faculty of Education who are teaching a course with similar content and six teacher candidates registered at the 4th grade of the same department were counducted. Based on the interview results, a “Needs Analysis Questionnaire” was developed by the researchers and used for the quantitative dimension. The questionnaire is applied to 80 teacher candidates who are 3rd and 4th grade classroom teacher candidates in a a state university in Istanbul. Qualitative data were analyzed through the content analysis carried out by using NVivo11 analysis software. In the analysis of the quantitative data, a descriptive analysis was made by using SPSS.20 software package. According to results, It is seen that the teacher candidates are barely knowledgeable about the child rights; and that the teacher candidates appreciate the learning outcomes of the course design, and yet they consider themselves quite incompetent for these learning outcomes. Additionaly, the results demonstrated that an education programme on human rights, citizenship and democracy should be offered to the teacher candidates as a must course. In line with the results of the needs analysis, an education programme design model on human rights, citizenship, democracy and child rights is proposed.

Published: July 2019

The aim of this research is determining the support behaviors and activities parents realized for their children’s learning and revealing it relationships with some demographical properties of parents. The translational simultaneous mixed method was used. This study in which quantitative and qualitative methods used together, firstly survey was applied and the semi-structured interviews was done. Data obtained by these data collection tools were analysed simultenously. The participants of this study are 360 parents who are parents of students studying in 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th grades at a secondary school in İstanbul. Semi-structured interviews were realized with 43 parents chosen from these participants. The questionnaire consists of three dimensions and 66 items. In the analysis of quantitative data percentage, frequency, arithmetic means and one-way variance analysis (ANOVA) were used. Descriptive analysis was used for analysing qualitative data. According to data obtained from the research, parents realized the activities which are related to motivate their children to learning and the activities that parents do with the other education stakeholders more than the activities that parents do for helping their children’s lessons. The academical supporting activities parents do are mostly general ones. The general academical supporting activities parents stated that they do generally are following their children’s homeworks/examinations, encouraging them for studying, researching form different learning sources,  doing test, providing appropriate learning environments at home, sending their children to school courses and following their academic scores. The motivational supporting activities parents stated that they do mostly are praising their children when they achieve something, encouraging them when they couldn’t be successful in their lessons and talking about what they do at school. The activities mostly stated by parents that they realized collaboratively with other people and insititutions which are related to their children’s learning are attending parents’ meeting and speaking out their negative and positive thoughts about school and teachers. Parents’ opinions about the supporting activities they realised don’t differ according to their educational levels and occupations but they differ according to their ages. It can be said that younger parents (ages between 20 and 30) do supporting activities more than others.

Se evaluaron características de las viviendas y su relación con la permanencia de vectores. La búsqueda de vectores se realizó en el intradomicilio y peridomicilio de las viviendas, y mediante la instalación de una trampa de luz en un ambiente silvestre adyacente a una de las comunidades. Para la búsqueda de flagelados fueron examinadas al microscopio óptico las heces de los triatominos colectados. Se realizó la técnica de xenocultivo para los insectos positivos. Fueron encontrados e identificados triatominos tanto en los ambientes domésticos como en el ambiente silvestre en la zona de las comunidades del Pueblo Ayoreo Totobiegosode del Alto Paraguay: Chaidi y Aocojadi, durante el periodo de colecta del 2016. Los triatominos identificados en este estudio, Triatoma sordida y Triatoma guasayana, son propios de ambientes silvestres, aunque durante ciertas épocas del año actúan como especies intrusivas invadiendo las áreas domésticas. Se detectó la infección natural con T. cruzi-like en un ejemplar proveniente de la comunidad Chaidi, sin descartar la posibilidad de que el parásito se encuentre circulando en Aocojadi. La investigación contribuye a considerar el riesgo de exposición a la enfermedad que tiene la población local, debido a que hasta el momento de este estudio no se cuenta con información sobre la presencia o ausencia de circulación de T. cruzi en estas comunidades.

Los efectos del cambio climático sobre la biodiversidad demandan que se implementen estrategias de adaptación a escala de genes, de especies y del paisaje. La especie Equisetum giganteum localmente conocida como “cola de caballo”, es una especie de la flora nativa del Paraguay que se encuentra en peligro de extinción, motivo por el cual es importante que se establezcan medidas para su conservación. Le misma constituye uno de los objetos de conservación de la Reserva Natural Tapytá, ubicada en el Distrito de San Juan Nepomuceno, Departamento de Caazapá. El objetivo de la investigación fue proponer una metodología básica para el análisis de la adaptación al cambio climático de la especie Equisetum giganteum dentro de la reserva. Los objetivos específicos fueron: identificar las presiones y fuentes de presión que afectan a la especie; determinar la viabilidad de la especie; y sugerir medidas para su conservación en el área protegida ante un escenario de cambio climático. La metodología empleada se basó en el empleo de: transectos, entrevistas a informantes calificados, aplicación de escenarios climáticos, adaptación de las directrices de The Nature Conservancy, grupos focales de validación, construcción de escenarios distintos de viabilidad de la especie, y elaboración de medidas para su conservación. La alteración de la calidad del agua, fragmentación, degradación del hábitat, y régimen (micro climático) alterado, fueron las presiones identificadas en el estudio; cuyas fuentes fueron la contaminación difusa, el cambio de uso de suelo, la recolección de subsistencia incompatible, la depredación por especies domésticas y el cambio climático. Según el análisis de viabilidad, la especie Equisetum giganteum tiene una buena capacidad de persistencia y colonización dentro de la reserva. Como medidas para su conservación se sugieren realizar talleres de educación; replantación de ejemplares; implementación de terrazas; conservación ex situ e in situ y continuidad de investigaciones en el tema.
PENGARUH OPTIMASI TRANSFORMATOR DAYA TERHADAP PERKEMBANGAN BEBAN FEEDER UNTUK MEMINIMALISASI GANGGUAN DAN DEFISIT BEBAN LISTRIK DI WILAYAH SORONG-PROVINSI PAPUA BARAT

Efisiensi suatu transformator antara lain ditentukan oleh besarnya beban yang meningkat baik dari bulan ke bulan maupun dari tahun ke tahun. Beban tersebut memberikan masukan kepada gardu induk sehubungan dengan kapasitasnya, sehingga akan dapat ditentukan apakah gardu induk tersebut masih mampu menanggung beban yang meningkat tersebut. Oleh karena itu diperlukan suatu penelitian mengenai optimalisasi efisiensi transformator yang ada di gardu induk Sorong, sehingga hasil dari penelitian ini dapat menentukan efisiensi transformator yang optimal sesuai dengan perkembangan beban yang akan datang. Dengan cara mengestimasi beban yang akan datang yang berupa arus (Ampere) di sisi sekunder, maka arus (Ampere) di sisi primer dapat diketahui, sehingga daya masukan (Watt) di sisi primer dan daya keluaran (Watt) di sisi sekunder dapat ditentukan.Jadi rugi-rugi transformator dapat diketahui. Dengan diketahui daya masukan, daya keluaran, rugi-rugi transformator, maka efisiensi transformator dapat ditentukan. Dari hasil estimasi beban diperoleh juga beberapa efisiensi, sehingga dapat ditentukan kapan optimal efisiensi tersebut akan terjadi terhadap perkembangan beban yang akan datang.

Zambian communities are rich with voices of the value of adult education, albeit unsystematically documented. It is these insightful voices that this article unveils. Phenomenological research design was employed. Three research sites were targeted comprising two chiefdoms and covering four villages, two villages from each chief dom. Data was collected using interviews and focus group discussions. After coding the data, narrative and thematic methods of data analysis were used. Findings reveal that the value of adult education is measured informally by the number of the adult population able to access social amenities equitably and equally on one hand, and on the other, by their ability to read the ‘word and the world’ as purported by Freire and Macedo (1987).
Assessing Indonesia’s Leadership in the Advancement of ASEAN Political-Security Community under President Joko Widodo
Authors: Drajat Gibran Mahesa
Published: July 2019

This paper aims to examine Indonesia’s leadership in ASEAN as the regional organization advances its community building in areas of political-security. Indonesia, the largest state in Southeast Asia both from geographic and economic size, is known for its de facto leadership within the regional integration process of ASEAN. Such integration is mostly prominent in areas of multilateral engagement, conflict management, and democracy as well as human rights promotion. With President Joko Widodo at the helm of Indonesia’s presidency since October 2014, Indonesia has reoriented its foreign policy cornerstone on ASEAN into other channels that best serve its national interest. As Indonesia repositions its focus from ASEAN, there is a need to evaluate whether the trajectory of ASEAN Political-Security Community will continue to thrive under the consensual decision-making process among its ten member states known as ASEAN way.

 

To evaluate Indonesia’s leadership in the advancement of ASEAN Political-Security Community under President Joko Widodo, the paper will review Indonesia’s initiatives to ASEAN and how they contribute towards Southeast Asia’s regionalism. Subsequently, three areas of Indonesia’s leadership in ASEAN Political-Security Community building will be examined: the maintenance of ASEAN Centrality, South China Sea dispute management, and promotion of democracy and human rights. The paper concludes that ASEAN way works not only when ASEAN member states find a common ground on regional issues that affect their respective domestic politics. A presence of informal and voluntary leadership where “matured” member states bring about initiative and persuasion is needed to maintain ASEAN’s strategic relevance in Asia-Pacific. For this reason, Indonesia’s legitimacy as an informal leader in ASEAN plays an important role to ensure that the organization remain united and central to its member states.

Social Entrepreneurship is a concept of entrepreneurship (entrepreneurship) that prioritizes social
activities by empowering the surrounding community. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) can be
involved to be part of Social-entrepreneurship, to support economic independence of society. To
support the sustainability of SMEs as well as a more global reach can be used creative economic
approach of each sector conducted SMEs. It aims to sustain SMEs for a long time and become the
foundation for the Indonesian economy. The purpose of the research is to conduct SME analysis to be
part of social entrepreneuship based on creative economy. Quantitative research methods (descriptive
statistics) and qualitative (interactive analysis models), where data collection is done by observation,
in-depth interviews, and approach of PRA (Participatory Rural Appraisal). The results show that local
governments fully support the existence of SMEs, especially the handicraft sector, by providing
facilities to change policies and funding assistance. Some craftsmen already have the concept of ideas
and creativity in improving product quality, it is seen from the innovation of products developed.
Society, government and community of artisans support the existence of creative economy-based
social entrepreneurship in order to support the improvement of the economy. To support the
sustainability of creative entrepreneurial based on creative economy requires the involvement of
government, entrepreneurs, communities through ongoing assistance with policy support siding with
SMEs.
