“Going Backward”: Effects of age and fatigue on posterior-directed falls in Parkinson disease
Authors: Papa Evan V. , Patterson Rita M. , Bugnariu Nicoleta
Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND: Nearly half of persons with Parkinson disease (PD) report fatigue as a factor in their fall history. However, it is unknown whether these self-reported falls are caused by a sensation of fatigue or performance fatigue. OBJECTIVE: We sought to investigate the influences of performance fatigue and age on postural control in persons with PD. METHODS: Individuals with PD (n = 14) underwent postural control assessments before (T0) and immediately after (T1) fatiguing exercise. Biomechanical data were gathered on participants completing a treadmill-induced, posterior-directed fall. Performance fatigue was produced using lower extremity resistance exercise on an isokinetic ergometer. Repeated measures ANCOVAs were used with age as a covariate to determine the effects of performance fatigue on biomechanical variables. RESULTS: After adjustment for age, there was a statistically significant difference in peak center of pressure (COP) latency during the support phase of recovery. Pairwise comparisons demonstrated a decrease in peak ankle displacement from T0 to T1. Age was also found to be significantly related to reaction time and peak knee displacement while participants were fatigued. CONCLUSIONS: The decreased peak COP latency, along with decreased ankle angular displacement, suggest that persons with PD adopt a stiffening strategy in response to backward directed falls. Postural stiffening is not uncommon in persons with PD and could be a risk factor for falls. Older individuals with PD demonstrate slower mobility scores and decreased reaction times in the setting of fatigue, suggesting a combined effect of the aging and fatigue processes.

Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND: Mirror therapy (MT) has proven to be beneficial for treating patients suffering from motor aphasia after stroke. However, the impacts of MT on neuroplasticity remain unexplored. OBJECTIVE: In this paper we conducted a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the treatment using the MT on motor aphasia following acute cerebral infarction. METHODS: We randomly assigned 30 patients into test and control groups, with test group patients treated with MT, whereas control group patients were treated with sham MT. At 24 hours prior to and after the intervention, we obtained functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data from study subjects. At baseline, after treatment and 12-week follow-up, we additionally evaluated patients with the Modified Rankin Scale (mRS), the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), and the aphasia quotient (AQ) in the western aphasia test. RESULTS: After 2 weeks of treatment, the test group demonstrated significant improvements in AQ values, naming, repetition, spontaneous speech, and mRS scores compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Furthermore, in the follow-up time point (12 weeks), we found that the test group exhibited significantly better NIHSS scores and AQ evaluation indicators than the control group (P < 0.05). Specifically, the fMRI study shows that functional connectivity significantly improved in test group patients mainly among frontal, temporal, and parietal lobes of the left hemisphere with each other than controls group. Meanwhile, we found significantly enhanced functional connectivity with the hippocampus (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Our results indicate that the MT can expedite the recovery of language function during the early phases of stroke recovery. These findings may elucidate the underlying mechanism of MT and the application of this therapy as an adjunct rehabilitation technique in language recovery.

BACKGROUND: There are no reports regarding the long-term retention of effects of Lee Silverman Voice Treatment® BIG (LSVT® BIG) on improvements in quality of life (QOL) among patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the short-term effect of LSVT® BIG on QOL improvement and its retention in a patient with PD. Motor symptoms, walking ability, and walking speed were evaluated as factors associated with QOL. METHODS: A 63-year-old woman who was diagnosed with PD received a 4-week LSVT® BIG program under the supervision of certified LSVT® BIG physical therapists. The participant’s disease severity was classified as Hoehn and Yahr stage 2. The Parkinson’s Disease Questionnaire-39 (PDQ-39), Movement Disorder Society-sponsored Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) part 3, timed up-and-go test (TUG), and 10 m walk test (10 MWT) were evaluated before, after, and 1-year after the intervention. RESULTS: The results indicated short-term improvements in the PDQ-39, MDS-UPDRS part 3, TUG, and 10 MWT which were retained for up to 1 year. CONCLUSIONS: This case report suggests the possibility of 1-year retention of improvements in QOL, motor symptoms, walking ability, and walking speed resulting from LSVT® BIG intervention in a patient with mild PD.

Authors: Saviola Donatella , De Gaetano Katia , Galvani Romina , Bosetti Sara , Abbati Paola , Igharo Vivian , De Tanti Antonio
Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND: Coffin-Siris syndrome is a rare genetic disease with heterozygous variants in the ARID1A, ARID1B, ARID2, DPF2, SMARCA4, SMARCB1, SMARCE1 or SOX11 genes. It may manifest with somatic anomalies, deafness, urogenital malformations, recurrent infections, mental retardation, speech deficit, agenesis of the corpus callosum, convulsions, hypotonia, developmental delay, and scoliosis. CASE REPORT: A 14-year-old boy with Coffin-Siris syndrome due to variants in the ARID1A gene was referred to the clinic. His rehabilitation over a 9-year period was described. The problem of assessment and the approach to rehabilitation was discussed, enabling a progressive remodelling of the cognitive-behavioural disorders that most hindered the possibility of his acquiring new skills and achieving social and family integration. CLINICAL REHABILITATION: A protracted, customised, multiprofessional rehabilitation approach, centred on realistic functional objectives, implemented with the direct involvement of the family and school, was the only way to achieve the maximum independence and social and family integration permitted by his residual disability.

Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND: Wearable technologies have been developed for healthy aging. The technology for electromyography (EMG)-controlled functional electrical stimulation (FES) systems has been developed, but research on how helpful it is in daily life has been insufficient. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the EMG-controlled FES system on muscle morphology, balance, and gait in older adults. METHODS: Twenty-nine older adults were evaluated under two randomly assigned conditions (non-FES and FES assists). Muscle morphology, balance, gait function, and muscle effort during gait were measured using ultrasonography, a physical test, a gait analysis system, and EMG. RESULTS: The EMG-controlled FES system improved gait speed by 11.1% and cadence by 15.6% (P< 0.01). The symmetry ratio of the bilateral gastrocnemius was improved by 9.9% in the stance phase and 11.8% in the swing phase (P< 0.05). The degrees of coactivation of the knee and ankle muscles were reduced by 45.1% and 50.5%, respectively (P< 0.05). Balance improved by 6–10.7% (P< 0.01). CONCLUSION: The EMG-controlled FES system is useful for balance and gait function by increasing muscle symmetry and decreasing muscle coactivation during walking in older adults.

Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND: COVID-19 presents a threat to the mental health of the medical staff working with COVID-19 patients. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the impact of working during the COVID-19 pandemic on resident physicians. METHODS: The study was conducted via anonymous online survey and included resident physicians. The survey contained questions about sociodemographic information, general job satisfaction during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their personal lives. RESULTS: This study included a response from 728 resident physicians. The majority of residents rated that the COVID-19 pandemic had a mostly negative impact on their satisfaction with professional life (59.9%) and quality of work (62.8%), their personal lives (44.7%) and quality of life (57.1%). Half of all residents indicated that they did not have enough personal protective equipment (PPE). About one-third of residents indicated that the level of stress at work during the COVID-19 pandemic was higher. CONCLUSIONS: Working as resident physicians during COVID-19 pandemic had a negative effect on participants’ professional and personal lives. Residents did not have all the necessary PPE nor felt safe working with patients with suspected or proven COVID-19. Further action is needed to provide support for physician residents working during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND: With the spread of COVID-19 and the worsening global prevention and control situation, the risk of infection faced by health workers has been unprecedented. It is necessary to fully understand the occupational risks of health workers to protect them and reduce their risk of infection. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to obtain comprehensive and detailed information on occupational risk factors of infectious diseases for HWs in different dimensions and to propose control strategies for three risk dimensions to protect HWs who are at high risk of infection during the pandemic. METHODS: A total number of 619 articles published from 2010 to 2021 were searched to conduct bibliometric analysis, which were retrieved in the Web of Science database with defined search terms. There were 26 articles met the criteria, and they were screened to identify occupational risk factors. RESULTS: We conducted an analysis of cited institutions, co-citation network analysis of journals, and references from bibliometric analysis. Nine risk factors were extracted, and they were classified and sorted into three dimensions. Infection control strategies for each dimension were proposed. CONCLUSIONS: The risk of infection faced by HWs is unprecedented. Medical institutions should pay more attention to the nine risk factors that we identified and use the three risk dimensions to carry out risk identification and infection control to reduce the infection risk of HWs and protect them better.

Authors: Khan Shaida , Kramer Alan , McIver Johnathan , Cady Leah , Trivedi Jaya R.
Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has changed the face of health care delivery. Health care institutions rapidly transitioned to telehealth to provide care to patients. Prior to the pandemic, telehealth services extended mostly to patients with established diagnoses. Driven by a necessity to provide care to all patients during the pandemic, neurologists started evaluating new patients also via telehealth. OBJECTIVE: To explore opportunities, challenges, and feasibility of telehealth for new patients with neuromuscular disorders. METHODS: New patient visits performed in our neuromuscular clinic were analyzed from March 18, 2020 - July 31, 2020. Data collected included visit volume, demographics, geographic distance of patient’s residence from our institution, and no-show and cancellation rates. RESULTS: Total number of patients seen was 1,471; 472 (32%) were new patients. No-show and cancellation rates for telehealth visits were lower than historical in-person visits. There was a wide range of ages (35–74 years) with representation of new patients from a large geographical territory. CONCLUSION: This study advances our understanding regarding the adoption and implementation of telehealth for new patients. Our clinic was able to provide timely access and care to a significant number of patients who could not travel to our institution during COVID-19.

Occupational injuries in underground coal mining in Serbia: A case study
Authors: Ilić Krstić Ivana , Avramović Danijela , Živković Snežana
Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND: Mining, especially underground coal mining, has always been a hazardous occupation. Injuries, including those that are fatal, are a major occupational risk that all miners have to face. OBJECTIVE: Despite the fact that all workers are aware of the risks, efforts must be made to increase their safety through the implementation of preventive measures. METHODS: This retrospective study includes injury data from all nine Serbian coal mines over a 16-year period, from 2000 to 2016. All injury data were collected from employee safety and health records. RESULTS: In the analyzed period, a total of 9,273 occupational injuries were recorded at Resavica. The highest number of occupational injuries (over 600) were recorded in 2008 (669), 2004 (651), and 2005 (603). The data shows that almost one fifth of the total number of occupational injuries, or 20.74%, occurred during the said three years. On average, 493.06 minor, 51.12 severe, and 1.29 fatal injuries occurred each year. Every day there were 1.29 minor occupational injuries and every seven days there was one severe injury. CONCLUSIONS: Despite indications that there is a connection between some of the variables and the number of injuries, the general conclusion is that injuries are accidental and unpredictable. The high percentages of injuries are due to the organization of work and the age or qualification structure of the staff and, of course, are the consequence of likelihood –the greater the number of workers, the greater the likelihood of injury. However, the present study showed that some measures can be taken to increase occupational safety and reduce the number of injuries.
Understanding work participation among employees with common mental disorders: What works, for whom, under what circumstances and how? A systematic realist review protocol
Authors: van Hees Suzanne G.M. , Carlier Bouwine E. , Blonk Roland W.B. , Oomens Shirley
Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND: Work participation among employees with common mental disorders (CMDs) is an increasingly important, yet highly complex phenomenon. Given the call for preventing instead of reacting to negative work outcomes, there is a need to understand how employees with CMDs can continue working. OBJECTIVES: 1) to provide insights in applying a realist approach to the literature review process and 2) to present a way to develop an explanatory framework on work participation, the related causal mechanisms and the interaction with the work context. METHODS: A systematic realist literature review, using stay at work (SAW) and work performance (WP) as outcomes of work participation. This protocol paper explains the rationale, tools and procedures developed and used for identification, selection, appraisal and synthesis of included studies. RESULTS: The review process entailed six steps to develop so called ‘middle range program theories’. Each step followed a systematic, iterative procedure using context-mechanism-outcome (CMO) configurations. CONCLUSIONS: Conducting a realist review adds on the understanding to promote work participation, by examining the heterogeneity and complexity of intervention- and observational studies. This paper facilitates other researchers within the field of occupational health by demonstrating ways to develop a framework on work participation using realist synthesis.
“Working old-old”: Psychological well-being, cognitive abilities and physical health of employed and self-employed Europeans aged 75+
Authors: Augner Christoph
Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND: Recent research deals with the effects of employment/self-employment of elderly on mental and physical health. However, the rising group of “old-old”, aged 75 and above, is almost missing in this research. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to analyze psychological well-being, cognitive abilities and physical health of employed/self-employed and retired Europeans aged 75 and above (“old-old”). METHODS: We used data recently collected by Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE). Our final sample consisted of N = 9,884, 57.69%were female. Employed or self-employed (vs. retired) rate was 30.20%for male and 28.88%for female. Mean age of the sample was 81.07 (SD = 4.90). RESULTS: Employed/self-employed “old-old” showed significant better psychological well-being, cognitive abilities and physical health than their retired counterparts. Age of the groups did not differ. Further analysis indicated the close connection between physical health (i.e. chronic diseases, negative self-perceived health, physical inactivity and ADL number of limitations) and employment/self-employment status. CONCLUSIONS: Against the background of continuity theory of ageing future research has to focus on the growing group of “old-old” still working.

Published: June 2021

BACKGROUND: The increasing globalization and the advances in communication technology have expedited the formation of virtual teams. The geographical distribution of virtual team members entails significant changes in working conditions. There is limited knowledge about the demands and resources virtual team members experience and how these can affect their mental health. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to identify work-related psychological demands and resources of virtual team members. METHODS: 14 semi-structured interviews with virtual team members were conducted. Study participants were recruited based on the gatekeeper principle and the snowball principle. The interviewees were asked about self-perceived job demands and resources of virtual teamwork. The interviews were analyzed according to Mayring’s structuring content analysis. RESULTS: Based on the qualitative analysis, the following job demands were explored among virtual team members: challenges due to permanent availability, technical conditions, and communication issues with other virtual team members. Job-related resources among virtual team members were also identified and are reflected in increased autonomy, flexibility and improved compatibility of private and professional working life. CONCLUSION: This study contributes to the understanding of the specific working conditions of virtual team members and identified job demands and resources of virtual teamwork. In addition, this study can be used as a basis for further quantitative investigations.

BACKGROUND: Return to work (RTW) is an important outcome in Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA). At present, 70–80%of TKA patients return to work within three to six months. OBJECTIVE: What are patients’ perspectives regarding beneficial and limiting factors in RTW after TKA? METHODS: Focus groups were formed in accordance with the Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research (COREQ) checklist. Three major topics were explored: 1. What was beneficial for RTW after TKA; 2. What was limiting for RTW after TKA; and 3. What additional care would benefit RTW after TKA? RESULTS: Data saturation was reached after four focus groups, comprising 17 participants—nine men and eight women (median age 58, range 52–65). The focus group study identified four main themes that contributed to a successful RTW namely rehabilitation (medical) like post-operative physical therapy, patient characteristics (personal), like motivation to RTW, occupational characteristics (work-related) like build-up in work tasks and medical support (medical) like availability of a walker or crutches. CONCLUSION: According to participants, factors within the following four themes can contribute to a successful return to work: occupational, patient, rehabilitation and medical care. Incorporating these factors into the integrated care pathway for the “young” TKA patients may increase the chances of a successful RTW.

Authors: Sa’diyah Ilmatus
Published: June 2021

Aspek utama yang lebih banyak dipertimbangkan saat berkomunikasi secara tertulis dengan orang lain melalui whatsApp adalah kesantunan. Bahkan, pertimbangan kesantunan jauh lebih tinggi daripada maksud pesan di dalamnya. Walaupun whatsApp sudah dilengkapi dengan beragam ekspresi (emoticon), hal itu belum cukup untuk menampilkan kesantunan linguistik pengirim pesan. Oleh karena itu, analisis kesantunan linguistik pada pesan tertulis yang dikirim melalui pesan whatsApp perlu dilakukan. Secara khusus, penelitian ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi bentuk, strategi, dan fungsi kesantunan linguistik pada komunikasi melalui pesan whatsApp selama masyarakat bekerja dari rumah pada pandemik covid-19. Teori kesantunan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah teori kesantunan Leech pada fungsi kesantunan (1993) dan bentuk kesantunan oleh Oktavianus dan Revita pada bentuk kesantunan (2013). Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif. Data penelitian ini berasal dari pesan tertulis di whatsApp yang masuk ke peneliti. Data pengirim pesan tidak ditampilkan. Data dianalisis dengan metode padan pragmatik dan kontekstual. Berdasarkan hasil analisis, ditemukan 3 bentuk kesantunan dan 5 fungsi kesantunan. Bentuk kesantunan meliputi kesantunan meminta, bertanya, dan memuji. Fungsi kesantunan meliputi fungsi kompetitif, menyenangkan, kerja sama, dan bertentangan. Kata kunci: kesantunan linguistik, kesantunan pesan tertulis, fungsi kesantunan, bentuk kesantunan

PROBLEMATIKA PEMBELAJARAN BAHASA INDONESIA BAGI PENUTUR ASING (BIPA) DALAM PERSPEKTIF PSIKOLINGUISTIK
Authors: Purnamasari Arlinda
Published: June 2021

Pemelajar BIPA biasanya menjadikan bahasa Indonesia sebagai bahasa kedua (B2) atau bahasa ketiganya (B3) sehingga setiap pemelajar memiliki perbedaan bahasa pertama (B1), perbedaan latar belakang sosiokultural, dan perbedaan tujuan mempelajari bahasa Indonesia. Perbedaan tersebut dapat menjadi faktor munculnya problematika dalam pembelajaran BIPA. Tulisan ini akan lebih memfokuskan permasalahan dalam pembelajaran BIPA terutama pada aspek psikolinguistik. Tujuan dilakukannya penelitian ini antara lain: 1) mendeskripsikan pengaruh kurangnya modal kultural pemelajar BIPA tentang Indonesia terhadap pembelajaran BIPA, 2) mendeskripsikan pengaruh kurangnya praktik penggunaan bahasa Indonesia oleh pemelajar BIPA terhadap pembelajaran BIPA, 3) mendeskripsikan pengaruh beban psikologis pemelajar BIPA terhadap pembelajaran BIPA. Penelitian dilakukan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode deskriptif. Data penelitian diperoleh melalui teknik studi pustaka. Berdasarkan problematika yang muncul, pengajar dan pemelajar harus bersinergi mewujudkan proses pembelajaran yang interaktif, inovatif, dan bermakna. Pemelajar harus berusaha beradaptasi dengan keadaan sosiokultural Indonesia. Pengajar dapat memberikan gambaran tentang negara Indonesia karena kejutan budaya dan kejutan bahasa akan menghambat pemerolehan bahasa pemelajar. Selain itu, pemelajar harus terus mempraktikkan kemampuannya dalam berbahasa Indonesia dan berinteraksi secara emosional dengan lingkungan di Indonesia. Pengajar juga harus melihat bahwa kesalahan yang dilakukan pemelajar BIPA merupakan hal yang wajar. Selain itu, pengajar harus terus memberikan afirmasi positif dan motivasi kepada pemelajar.Kata kunci: problematika pembelajaran, bahasa Indonesia bagi penutur asing, psikolinguistik.

Objectives: Computer usage has rapidly grown. This is because it helps to resolve problems, i.e., encountered in daily life by individuals. Various monitor screens that have been developed affect the user’s eyes. Screen size is one of the relevant impacts. Thus, this study compared the immediate effects of two computer screen sizes on visual fatigue in Video Display Terminal (VDT) users. Methods: Twenty female VDT users participated in this study. Using a randomized block design for the study, the study participants randomly drew a ballot to determine the order of using an 18.5-inch and 23-inch computer screen size. The research participants were assessed by a visual fatigue score, critical flicker frequency, and dry eye score before and after using both computer screen sizes. They were tested in an ergonomic computer workstation for 2 hours. Besides, where they rested between each workstation for ≥30 minutes or until presetting no eye fatigue symptoms. The relevant data were compared between before and after using the computers and between the two different screen sizes. Results: The collected results suggested no significant difference in the visual fatigue score, critical flicker frequency, and dry eye score between using either computer screen sizes (P>0.05). However, there were significant differences in the visual fatigue score, critical flicker frequency, and dry eye score between before and after computer screen usage (P<0.05). Discussion: Using both computer screen sizes resulted in increased visual fatigue, reduced critical flicker frequency, and increased dry eyes. The present study results can provide information in determining how to reduce risk factors and prevent visual fatigue from continuous computer use for a long time.

Authors: Guo Yi
Published: June 2021

Education is the fundamental task for a country. Higher education even plays an extremely important role in the country's economic and social development. As an African country, no matter economically developed or backward, the urgent task is to attach importance to the development of higher education. However, restricted by the economic and political development status in Sub-Saharan Africa, there are still a lot of problems in the higher education of Africa. Whereas the smooth opening and operation of the Addis Ababa light rail project (AALRTS) in Ethiopia not only fills the blank of rail transit in Ethiopia and African continent, but also breaks through the zero output of rail transit operational management training from China. The success of the training project poses a benchmarking effect on the overseas output development of China's rail transit. In this paper, taking light rail training of Shenzhen Metro in Ethiopia as an example, an analysis is made on the problems in the current vocational education development of Africa and the practice and innovation in this training.

On the basis of a wide base of sources, the article highlights and analyzes the development of research work of aircraft engine companies in Zaporizhzhia during the 1970s. The existence of a single system of functioning of the Zaporizhzhia production association “Motorobudivnyk” (now the Public Joint Stock Company “Motor Sich”) and the Zaporizhzhia Machine-Building Design Bureau “Progress” (now the State Enterprise “Ivchenko – Progress”) is taken into account. The directions of research work that were peculiar to the specified period are established. These were inventive activities, development of technological processes, increasing the reliability and durability of gas turbine engines, automation and mechanization of production, cooperation with industry firms in other countries, and cooperation with research institutions. The development of a scientific-theoretical and technical basis for the production of aircraft engines is comprehensively assessed. Its dependence on structural subdivisions, which at the aircraft engine enterprises were the department of scientific and technical information, the Information and Computing Center, the department of patenting, innovation and invention of the plant, was determined. They were engaged in the accumulation, generalization and dissemination among specialists of their own and borrowed experience of both past and present. The activity of the scientific and technical council, which included leading specialists of Zaporizhia aircraft engine companies, was monitored. Factors that contributed to the revival of research in the second half of the 1970’s were identified. Among them, the leading place belongs to the creation and production of D-36 and D-18T aircraft engines. The design advantages of these engines are described. Some shortcomings and miscalculations made during their design are taken into account. Methods and measures aimed at overcoming the difficulties associated with the design, manufacture, operation and repair of aircraft engines are summarized. The research is based on the following methods: actualization, comparative-historical, problem-chronological, multifactor analysis, principles of historicism and objectivity.
