Published: January 2020

Di era globalisasi perkembangan teknologi dan komunikasi semakin pesat. Perkembangan teknologi di bidang informasi dan komunikasi ini dapat dibuktikan melalui kehadiran Internet, yang bisa diakses oleh semua orang dari berbagai kalangan di manpun dan kapanpun. Perkembangan teknologi ini secara tidak langsung juga berpengaruh pada gaya hidup masyarakat, yang dulunya mencari informasi dengan membaca surat kabar, tetapi saat ini banyak masyarakat yang lebih memilih membaca berita lewat media online. Media online merupakan ruang pemberitaan yang memadukan antara teknologi komunikasi (internet) dan jurnalisme konvensional dalam satu ruang yang disebut jurnalisme online. Dalam menyajikan berita baik itu media online maupun media cetak, hal mendasar yang perlu diperhatikan adalah perlunya melakukan pengecekan kembali kebenaran dari suatu berita yang di tulis, berita yang ditulis tidak menyerang kepentingan individu atau kelompok tertentu atau bersifat netral. Di sinilah pentingya penyunting untuk menyunting berita baik di media online maupun cetak.

Strategies for Mitigating Sexual Desire Discrepancy in Relationships
Authors: Vowels Laura Marika , Mark Kristen P
Published: January 2020

Sexual desire discrepancy, when one member of a couple experiences more or less sexual desire relative to their partner, is among the main reasons for couples to seek therapy. A great deal of prior research has examined the complexity of sexual desire and the role of sexual desire discrepancy in long-term relationships, but little research has specifically examined strategies used to mitigate sexual desire discrepancy when it arises. Thus, the purpose of the present mixed methods study was to identify the strategies that individuals in long-term relationships use during times of desire discrepancy and to address whether the use of specific strategies influenced sexual and relationship satisfaction and sexual desire. We collected data from 229 participants and our thematic content analysis produced 17 strategies, divided into five main groups (disengagement, communication, engagement in activity alone, engagement in other activity with partner, and have sex anyway). Specific strategies were associated with sexual and relationship satisfaction but not with sexual desire. Specifically, partnered strategies were associated with higher levels of sexual and relationship satisfaction compared to individual strategies. Additionally, participants who reported that their strategies were very helpful had higher levels of sexual and relationship satisfaction compared to participants who found them somewhat helpful followed by not at all helpful. These results have implications for clinicians, educators, and researchers and highlight the importance of using effective strategies to deal with desire discrepancy and communicating about them in relationships. The use of effective strategies can have implications for overall couple well-being. Preregistration available at: https://osf.io/e3dcnData and materials available at: https://osf.io/634us/
Solutions to the problems of incremental validity testing in relationship science
Authors: Wang Yilin Andre , Eastwick Paul
Published: January 2020

Incremental validity testing (i.e., testing whether a focal predictor is associated with an outcome above and beyond a covariate) is common (e.g., 57% of Personal Relationships articles in 2017), yet it is fraught with conceptual and statistical problems. First, researchers often use it to overemphasize the novelty or counterintuitiveness of findings, which hinders cumulative understanding. Second, incremental validity testing requires that the focal predictor and the covariate represent separate constructs; researchers risk committing the “jangle fallacy” without such evidence. Third, the most common approach to incremental validity testing (i.e., standard multiple regression, 88% of articles) inflates Type I error and can produce invalid conclusions. We also discuss the relevance of these issues to dyadic/longitudinal designs, and we offer concrete solutions.
The effects of communicating uncertainty on public trust in facts and numbers
Authors: van der Bles Anne Marthe , Linden Sander van der , Freeman Alexandra , Spiegelhalter David
Published: January 2020

Uncertainty is inherent to our knowledge about the state of the world, yet often not communicated alongside scientific facts and numbers. In the “post-truth” era where facts are increasingly contested, a common assumption is that communicating uncertainty will reduce public trust. Yet, a lack of systematic research makes it difficult to evaluate such claims. We conducted five experiments—including one preregistered replication with a national sample and one field experiment on the BBC News website — (total N = 5633) to examine whether communicating epistemic uncertainty about facts across different topics (e.g. global warming, immigration), formats (verbal vs. numeric), and magnitudes (high vs low) influences public trust. Results show that whereas people do perceive greater uncertainty when it is communicated, we observed only a small decrease in trust in numbers and trustworthiness of the source, and mostly for verbal uncertainty communication. These results could help reassure all communicators of facts and science that they can be more open and transparent about the limits of human knowledge.

Authors: Pandey Chakra Raj , Baral Rajiv , Dahal Sunit , Sharma Sushil , Bajracharya Aayush , Thapa Ram
Published: January 2020

Introduction: Laxity after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is one of the troublesome problems lasting many years. Laxity can be tested by clinical and arthrometer preoperatively as well as postoperatively. The purpose of this study is to evaluate postoperative laxity in Nepalese population.

Materials & methods: This retrospective study was carried out in Grande International Hospital, Kathmandu. All cases which had completed six-months follow up and presented in outpatient department were included in the study. Laxity was tested by Karl Storz Arthrometer using anterior force in 20 degrees of knee flexion with maximum manual force by the same doctor. The statistical significance level was set at p=0.05. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS 16.

Results: 21 cases operated via arthroscopic method were eligible for the study. Mean age was 28.3±10.44. There were 14 (66.7%) male 7 (33.3%) female. A total of eight cases of laxity (36.36%) were identified - six males (75%) and two females (25%). Hamstring grafts accounted for three cases of laxity (37.5%) while Bone Patellar Tendon Bone Graft (BPTB) accounted for five cases (62.5%). The mean follow-up was one and half years. Hamstring and bone patellar tendon bone graft were used in 6 (28.6%) and 15 (71.4%) cases respectively.

Conclusion: Previous studies have concluded that >3mm of laxity difference is associated with difficulties in vigorous activities. However, our patients were comfortable in their daily activities without significant clinical outcome.

Authors: Joshi Gyanendra , Bijukachhe Binod , Khan Javed Ahmad
Published: January 2020

Introduction: To report the treatment results of 19 patients who underwent excision of intradural extramedullary (IDEM) spinal tumors.

Materials & Methods:  This is a retrospective study. Patients’ records were retrieved from the electronic database of Grande International Hospital. There were 19 IDEM spinal tumors excised over a period of 6 years between January 2013 and August 2019 by a single surgeon. There were 11 (57.9%) males and 8 (42.1%) females with an average age of 48.37±21.87 years (range, 5-79 years). The mean postoperative follow-up period was 12.87±14.88 months (range, 15 days - 60 months). The histopathological findings, locations of the tumors, and clinical results were analyzed. Neurological findings were evaluated using ASIA grading system and pain was evaluated using VAS score.

Results:  Histopathologically the tumors were: 8 meningioma (42.1%), 4 schwannoma (21.1%), 4 neurofibroma (21.1%), 1 dermoid cyst (5.3%), 1 lipoma (5.3%), and 1 myxopapillary ependymoma (5.3%). Tumor locations were: dorsal in 10 (52.6%), lumbar in 5 (26.3%), lumbosacral in 2 (10.5%), dorsolumbar in 1 (5.3%), and cervical in 1 (5.3%) patient. Neurologic status of 7 patients was normal and 12 had neurologic involvement with 3 patients having Cauda Equina Syndrome (CES) preoperatively. At the final follow-up, 3-grade, 2-grade and 1-grade improvement in ASIA score was observed in 1, 6 and 1 cases, respectively. There was no change in the ASIA grade in 1 case. All 3 cases of CES achieved full neural recovery. Preoperative VAS score was 9.21±1.08 and improved significantly to 0.74±1.62 after surgery. Neurological improvement was seen in 91.67% with complete recovery in 75% of the cases and not a single case deteriorated neurologically post-surgery.

Conclusion:  Most intradural-extramedullary spinal cord tumors are mostly benign and good clinical results can be obtained when adequately treated with surgery.

Authors: Poudel Anuj , Shah Anita , Khatiwada Sulochana , Samdurkar Ashok
Published: January 2020

INTRODUCTION:- Leprosy is one of the major health problems in Nepal, caused by Mycobacterium leprae. Histopathological examination is considered as important tool for proper classification of the disease. This study was carried out to study the histopathological features of leprosy in skin biopsies and classify based on microscopy, bacterial index to correlate with clinical presentations.

MATERIAL AND METHODS:- A retrospective observational study was done at Department of Pathology of Universal College of Medical Sciences (UCMS) Bhairahawa for 2 years from 1st November 2015 to 31stOctober 2017 and total 68 cases were analysed. Cases in which histopathological diagnosis of leprosy was made or considered differential diagnosis were selected for study. Ridley and Jopling classification was used histologically to make diagnosis of leprosy. Copies of issued histopathology reports, that are preserved in the department routinely were used to obtain data pertaining to age, sex, clinical information and histopathological findings.

RESULTS:- This study included 68 patients diagnosed histologically as leprosy. Histopathological examination of the skin biopsies of 68 patients revealed that, the maximum histopathological cases 28 (41.17%) are BT followed by 15 cases (22.05%) of IL (15) and 9 (13.23%) of TT. Complete parity between clinical diagnosis and histopathology was observed in 55.88 % and disparity was seen in 44.12%.

CONCLUSION:- For proper classification of Leprosy, correlation of clinical and histopathological features along with bacterial index is more useful than considering any of the single parameter.
Critical Thinking in Nursing Education and Nursing practice
Authors: Kachapati Anuja , Ghimire Sulochana
Published: January 2020

Critical thinking is an essential component to competent nursing practice. Although critical thinking has been widely studied among student nurses.

Nursing education consists of the theoretical and practical training provided to nurses with the purpose to prepare them for their duties as nursing care professionals.

 Nurse educators are under pressure to show critical thinking as a program outcome. Many different strategies have been suggested for developing critical thinking among nursing students. It is easy to believe these strategies increase critical thinking, but not all have actually been measured for reliability or validity. Based on an exhaustive literature search, the author attempted to identify teaching strategies that are being used to increase critical thinking and how effective those strategies have been.

An Unusual Case of an Epidermoid Cyst Eroding into an Arteriovenous Graft Resulting in Graft Loss
Authors: Feghali Anthony , Feghali Anthony , Wilcox Kailyn , Wang You
Published: January 2020

Arteriovenous grafts (AVG) are unfortunately vulnerable to infection given their nature of being a foreign
body that is routinely accessed in a patient population that typically has multiple comorbidities.
Management of AVG infections can become more complex when a patient has exhausted all options of
hemodialysis access and gets an infection involving the AVG or a chronic wound in closed proximity.
Herein, we present a case of an epidermoid cyst that caused breakdown of a thigh PTFE dialysis graft, which
became infected and encapsulated the femoral anastomosis.
EXPERIMENTAL SUBSTANTIATION OF CARBOXYTHETERAPY IN THE TREATMENT OF PAIN SYNDROME
Authors: Kononenko A.V. , Drogovoz S. M. , Butko Ya. O. , Zupanets M. V.
Published: January 2020

Almost every person can felt the pain syndrome; it has different mechanisms of formation, which must be taken into account when determining the principles of treatment. The causes of pain are inflammation, ischemia, hypoxia, oxidative stress, etc. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are the most common painkillers, but the problem of expected efficiency and their potential risks is not fully resolved despite their huge assortment. Therefore, the search for alternative effective and safer methods of anelgesia, one of which is carboxytherapy (treatment of CO2). Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an inalienable component of the metabolism and pacemaker of the respiratory processes. The objective of the work was to study the analgesic effect of carboxytherapy (subcutaneous injections of carbon dioxide). For this purpose, we used a combined model of hyperalgesia (with a central component): carrageenan inflammation in combination with a modification of the tail immersion test. The animals (40 rats) used in the experiment were divided into five groups: I – control pathology; II – rats receiving injections of diclofenac sodium comparator at a dose of 8 mg / kg; III – animals that were subcutaneously injected with CO2 into the hind paw at a dose of 0.5 ml; IV – animals that were injected with CO2 into the hind paw at a dose of 1 ml; V – rats that received 4 mg/kg of diclofenac in combination with subcutaneous injection of CO2 into the hind paw at a dose of 1 ml. In the experiment on rats was found that subcutaneous injections of carboxytherapy at a dose of 0.5 ml and 1 ml have analgesic properties (at the level of 18.9 and 31.1 %), but the most perspective method is the complex purpose of analgesics (diclofenac sodium at a dose of 4 mg/kg) and injection of carboxytherapy (at a dose of 1 ml), which helps to reduce the degree of analgesia by 38.7 %, which correlates with the action of diclofenac sodium (at a dose of 8 mg/kg). Thus, the inclusion of carboxytherapy in conventional therapies will enhance the analgesic effect of a traditional drug and improve the safety profile of the latter.

Published: January 2020

The objective of the work was to make a comparative analysis of the result of external genital endometriosis treatment with the use of traditional surgical intervention and hormone therapy together with the use of low-molecular-weight metabolic immune response modifier 5-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrophthalazine-1,4-dione of sodium salt. Materials and methods: the experimental part of the study was previously conducted on 50 female rats which consisted of studying the influence of the immune response modifier on the course of experimentally induced endometriosis in experimental animals, in particular on changes in the estrous cycle. Injection of the immune response modifier caused retrogression of endometrioid heterotopias and normalization of the estrous cycle in the animals. The comparative analysis of the results of external genital endometriosis treatment in 66 women was conducted on the basis of experimental research. 34 women, apart from surgical intervention and hormone therapy, were injected with the immune response modifier 5-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrophthalazine-1,4-dione of sodium salt during the post surgical period. Cellular immunity, T- and B-lymphocytes, and equipment and instrumental methods, such as medical ultrasound of the organs of the lower pelvis and laparoscopy, were used to assess the results of treatment. As a result of the treatment with the use of the immune response modifier the indicators of cells immunity changed, pain severity decreased, menstrual function normalized, relapse frequency reduced, and the overall quality of life for patients improved. Socially significant effect of treatment of external genital endometriosis using metabolic immune response modifier is manifested in implementation of reproductive function ‒ elimination of infertility in 50 % of women during the first year of observation.
More Than Trolleys
Authors: Goodall Noah
Published: January 2020

As the act of driving becomes increasingly automated, vehicles will encounter situations where different objectives of safety, mobility, and legality will come into conflict. These situations require a vehicle to compare relative values of different entities and objectives, where the action of the vehicle has a moral component. While discussion of these scenarios often focuses on the “trolley problem” thought experiment, these types of life-or-death moral dilemmas may be rare in practice. This article identifies four far more common examples of routine driving that require decisions with some level of ethical reasoning about how to distribute risk. These scenarios may be useful for automated vehicle developers in assessing vehicle safety and responding to potential future regulations, as well as for regulators in developing performance requirements.
Oceanic Travels
Authors: Peters Kimberley , Squire Rachael
Published: January 2020

The seas and oceans, ships and boats, alongside other maritime activities and practices, have become a focus of work within the “new mobilities paradigm.” However, water worlds much like the space they occupy in the relation to the land remain situated in the margins of such work, despite an oceanic (re)turn in disciplines such as human geography, sociology, anthropology, and politics. Drawing from this recognition, this article seeks to make two contributions. First, following earlier, agenda-setting work, it makes a renewed call for mobilities scholarship to centralize work on oceans, ships, and other forms seagoing travel and life. Second, in doing so, it suggests such work needs to voyage more deeply and widely in the future, exploring mobilities beyond surficial connections and flows across our oceans, and making more expansive the subjects and objects and scales of investigation, under the remit of the “new mobilities paradigm.”
Algorithmic Art: Shuffling Space and Time
Authors: Lai Linda Chiu-han
Published: January 2020

Why are art-science dialogues important, and how should they take place? How do our everyday culture and institutional constructs define and delimit such possibilities? Why do contemporary art lovers still presume they are immune to and from scientific knowledge? How should a visitor of a media art event make sense of the machine work? Algorithmic Art: Shuffling Space & Time (AA) directed these questions to technical experts, artists, art lovers, and the public through a series of themed discussions and a six-hundred-square-meter indoor playground of machines and computational installations. AA also sought to key in on the question of survival. What mark has the struggling existence of the twenty-year-old School of Creative Media at the City University of Hong Kong left to Hong Kong’s (media) art history? The school remains the only pedagogic research center in Hong Kong where conceptual issues of new media art creation and how to “live” in an age of big data are interrogated through scholarship and practice.

This article explores the features of Chinas hegemonic ambitions which include more economic power than its rivals and the impact of international institutions on the interstate system. As a result, China has achieved Asias first tier of a hegemon, but influence over the global institutional framework is still underway. The eradication of the Pax Americana, however, must slowly materialize in line with Beijings established practices of avoiding confrontation and including various components of the present system. If China succeeds in bringing more and more friends and allies into its clout, Pax Sinica will be successful, but within the Chinese leadership, it is still argued that alliances do not meet the terms of its foreign policy principles.

Diante da instabilidade do mercado financeiro e outros eventos isolados, é cada vez mais difícil que os investidores tenham confiança e invistam seus recursos. Dentre os eventos isolados, um dos escândalos que repercutiram no ano de 2017 foi a operação “Carne Fraca”, deflagrada pela denúncia respectiva a adulteração da carne por grandes empresas do setor da indústria da carne. Sendo assim, o objetivo desta pesquisa é verificar se as indústrias do setor da carne foram afetadas pela operação “Carne Fraca”. Para tanto, fez-se uso de indicadores financeiros para a análise das demonstrações, conjuntamente a dados de relatórios das empresas e de dados de número de exportações e abates do período. Entre os principais resultados, foi possível perceber que as empresas foram negativamente afetadas no 1º e 2º trimestre de 2017, período da operação carne fraca. Contudo, foi possível perceber indícios de recuperação já no 3º trimestre de 2017. Esta pesquisa contribui como referência de modelo de indicadores que podem ser usados para melhor análise de situação financeira das empresas que passam por dificuldades e empresas estáveis, mas que não se tem certeza se é um bom investimento.
