Weeding Frequency to Increase Productivity of Sorghum in Gumara -Maksegnit Watershed
Authors: Abeje Yimer , Jemberu Tsedalu , Jorgi Tesfay
Published: May 2020

In the Amhara region, Ethiopia, sorghum production took 655,671 hectares of land, of which North Gondar zone accounts for one-third of it, 204, 686 ha. But its productivity is low, around 1.9 tons per hectare.  Sorghum production has so many constraints, insect pest, disease, and weed infestation are the most known among them. Farmers in the Northwestern Ethiopia, Gumara-maksegnit watershed have no weeding habit of their sorghum at the right time and frequency because they believe that weed-free crops at the early stage of the crop will be infested with stalk borer damage and after at the beginning of September they start to weed their land and used the weed as a feed for their animal. Therefore the objective of this study was to determine the weeding frequency of sorghum in Gumara-maksegnit watershed, North Western Ethiopia in order to increase its productivity. The experiment was conducted in the Gumara- maksegnit watershed for two cropping seasons (2014-2015) in the main season at three sites. The experimental design was arranged in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Treatments like weed-free, unweeded, and farmers practice treatments, hand weeding once, two times hand weeding, three times hand weeding, and Shelshalo were studied. According to the combined analysis of variance of the two-year data showed that weed-free treatments gave the highest yield (3314 kg/ha) followed by two times and three times hand weeding. However, there was no significant difference between weed-free and two times hand weeding. Therefore, two times hand weeding is recommended for Gondar Zuria and similar agroecological areas.

Published: May 2020

Background: Amniotic fluid plays a vital role during foetal life. The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the foetomaternal outcome in relation to amniotic fluid index in pregnant females beyond 36 weeks of gestation.Methods: This prospective type of study was conducted for one-year duration from May 2018 to May 2019 in 350 pregnant females beyond 36 weeks of gestation with clinically significant abnormal liquor volume. Clinical diagnosis was later on confirmed with ultrasonography and patients were categorized in three categories as patients with Amniotic fluid index (AFI) 5 to 24, AFI <5 and AFI > or = 25. Complete labour record was made and fetomaternal outcome was assessed.Results: In this study, incidence of oligohydramnios was found to be more than polyhydramnios at term. No significant differences were found in relation to age, parity, religion, residence and booking status in all the study groups. Mostly patients 119 (52%) delivered by caesarean section in oligohydramnios group whereas vaginal delivery was commonly seen in patients with normal AFI (80%) and polyhydramnios (55%). Growth restriction 59 (26%) and malpresentation 18 (8%) were commonly seen with oligohydramnios. In the polyhydramnios group, 14 (35%) babies had malformations whereas only 6 (3%) babies had malformations in patients with oligohydramnios. Significant differences were found in the foetal outcome between the patients with oligohydramnios and polyhydramnios in comparison to patients with normal AFI.Conclusions: In pregnant females with abnormal liquor volume increases the chances of maternal morbidity and perinatal morbidity and mortality.

Authors: Balde Ibrahima S. , Adjoby Roland , Diallo Mamadou Hady , Balde Ousmane
Published: May 2020

Background: The objective of the study is to compare the frequency, the socio-demographic characteristics, the indications, the fetal maternal prognosis and the Robson classification of prophylactic and emergency caesarean sections.Methods: This was a comparative study of prophylactic and emergency caesarean sections at the maternity of Ignace Deen national hospital. It was a 12 month (July 1, 2016 to June 30, 2017) descriptive and analytical study.Results: Prophylactic caesarean sections accounted for 12, 51% of caesarean sections and 3.96% of deliveries at the ward. Prophylactic caesarean sections involved pregnant women aged from 20 to 29, holder of higher education degrees (51.54%), married (92.76%) employed (56.83%) and whose prenatal visit was provided by the obstetrician (73.54%). While the emergency caesarean section concerned parturient aged between 20 and 34, mostly non-schooled (36.49%), transferred patients (80.22%) and nulliparous (58.5%). Surgical indications were mainly scarred uterus (32.32%) and maternal pathologies (18.11%) prophylaxis; bleeding in the last quarter (25.90%) acute fetal distress (20.33%) in emergency. Groups 6 and 5 of the Robson classification were the most represented with a 2.23% morbidity and a zero maternal lethality in prophylaxis versus groups 5 and 6 with a 10.03% morbidity and a 1.67% maternal lethality in emergency.Conclusions: Improving this prognosis would be achieved through an increase in the frequency of prophylactic caesarean sections.

Published: May 2020

Background: Antenatal corticosteroid administration in preterm pregnancies is recommended to promote fetal lung maturation. Studies have reported temporary reduction in fetal heart rate, breathing and movements following maternal corticosteroid administration. Authors studied effect of maternal corticosteroid administration on fetoplacental circulation in preterm pregnancies with IUGR and its correlation with perinatal outcome.Methods: Observational study included 77 preterm singleton pregnant women with IUGR. Color doppler day 0 (before betamethasone) of umbilical artery of 77 cases done. All received two doses of 12 mg of betamethasone intramuscularly 24 hours apart. Umbilical artery doppler on day 2 (24 to 48 hours of 1st dose of betamethasone) and day 4 (72 to 96 hours of 1st dose of betamethasone) done. Pulsatility index (PI) of umbilical artery on doppler and Neonatal details of all women noted.Results: On day 2 doppler, 56 (73%) women (Group A) showed decrease in umbilical artery PI while 21 (27%) women (Group B) did not show decrease in umbilical artery PI. Mean umbilical artery PI of 77 cases on day 0 and day 2 were 1.73±0.73 and 1.54±0.76 respectively (p<0.001). Mean Umbilical artery PI values of undelivered 60 cases on day 0, day 2 and day 4 were 1.55±0.61, 1.33±0.55 and 1.47±0.63 respectively (p<0.001). Group B neonates had poorer Apgar scores, higher neonatal complication, longer hospital stay, lesser umbilical pH at birth and higher perinatal mortality rate than Group A neonates.Conclusions: Significant reduction in mean umbilical artery PI observed on day 2 following betamethasone administration (p<0.001), which was maintained till 4th day after 1st dose of betamethasone (p<0.05). Women who showed improvement in umbilical artery pulsatility index following betamethasone administration had a better perinatal outcome as compared to women who did not.

Background: The iterative caesarean section, is a caesarean section that is performed on a uterus already healed, therefore for fear of maternal and perinatal risks, is recognized as one of the main causes of the inflation of caesarean section in the world. One in three caesarean sections is performed because of a scar uterus. Objective of this study was to analyse the epidemiological and clinical factors of iterative caesarean sections in the gynecology-obstetrics department at the Teaching Hospital of Cocody (Abidjan).Methods: This was a retrospective and descriptive study conducted from June 1st, 2018 to May 31st, 2019, including 349 iterative caesarean section cases.Results: The first iterative C-section accounted for 16.1% of the C-section indications during the study period. The average age of the patients was 30 years. Nearly half of the patients practiced in the informal sector 47.9%, were uneducated in 38.1% of cases and lived with a partner in 73.1% of cases. The majority of patients in this series 75.1% performed at least 4 ANCs. Patients were followed by prenatal visits in 61% of cases by midwives and in 8.6% of cases had an inter-reproductive space of less than 18 months. This study patients were evacuated in 46.4% of cases. Acute fetal distress was the first indication of first iterative caesarean section with 20.3% of cases. Emergency caesarean sections accounted for 84.4% of the cases in this series. Authors found maternal death 0.3% and 6.7% perinatal mortality.Conclusions: The iterative caesarean section is a caesarean section likely to cause difficulties and complications per- operative. Although in constant improvement the prognosis of the mother-child couple still remains a problem in this context, prenatal monitoring should be the prerogative of obstetrician gynecologists.

Published: May 2020

Background: Food-borne disease outbreaks remain a major global health problem, and cross-contamination from raw meat is a major cause in developed countries due to inadequate handling. The goal of this study was to assess the poultry shop personnel's knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) in the selected districts of Bangladesh.Methods: 103 poultry shop personnel were involved in this cross-sectional study.Results: A significant association was observed between the poultry shop personnel and the knowledge (p<0.05), attitudes (p<0.05), and practices (p<0.05) of safe meat-handling. The 68.3% of poultry shop personnel had good, 26.9% had moderate, while only 4.8% of poultry shop personnel had poor knowledge about hygiene practices. The 5.8% of poultry shop personnel showed poor, 19.2% showed moderate and 75% of poultry shop personnel showed good attitude towards hygiene practices. But the poultry shop personnel 36.5% had poor, 44.2% had moderate and only 20% showed good practice of hygiene practices. The knowledge, attitude and practice Mean±SD score of poultry shop personnel was 7.38±2.04, 7.87±2.24 and 4.41±2.38 respectively, indicating that poultry shop personnel had good knowledge and attitude but poor practice. We also found that 42% of poultry shops and poultry shop personnel had maintained totally unhygienic workplace, 56% had moderately hygienic, and while only 2% poultry shops and poultry shop personnel had maintained fully hygienic workplace. Further, linear regression analysis revealed that KAP levels have been significantly associated with age, education, and the majority of knowledge, attitudes, and practice related questions (p<0.05).Conclusions: Public health awareness about safe poultry meat handling and hygiene among poultry shop personnel, in general, should be at the front burner.

Published: May 2020

Background: Occupational ocular injuries are quite common among industrial and agricultural workers. It is an important cause of preventable vision loss in developing as well as developed countries. The principal objective of our research work was to study epidemiological profile of occupational ocular injuries and use of protective eye wear at workplace in North India.Methods: A prospective, hospital based observational study was conducted on 400 patients of occupational ocular injuries attending emergency services and OPD in Regional Institute of Ophthalmology, PGIMS Rohtak, Haryana, India during June 2016 to March 2020.Results: Out of 400 patients of occupational ocular injuries, majority were male (92%) and most common age group affected was 31-40 years (48%) followed by 21-30 years (30%). Most common injured patients were of manufacturing industry (45%) followed by construction site (30%) and agriculture based industry (25%). Metallic foreign body (70%) was found to be the most common cause of occupational ocular injury in 70% cases followed by chemical injury in 10% cases. Ocular injuries were more common in temporary workers (65%) who were not having proper safety training and not using protective devices at workplace.Conclusions: Occupational ocular injuries most commonly affect young productive population leading to temporary or permanent vision loss. Avoidance of protective glasses and lack of basic safety training make them more vulnerable for ocular injuries. Therefore, all workers should be encouraged to adopt basic safety measures and proper safety training should be given to them. It will not only help in reducing the ocular morbidity, but will also enhance the economic productivity.

Published: May 2020

A discussão dos eventos radioativos tem grande importância, independente do nível e da área de conhecimento, visto o grande impacto do seu uso na sociedade, seja na geração de energia ou na aplicação na área médica. A questão é que mesmo fazendo parte dos conteúdos presentes dos cursos de formação em física a abordagem é realizada apenas de forma teórica, tornando o contato com o tema ocorre somente de forma abstrata e criando assim grande dificuldade na aprendizagem. Nos casos dos cursos na modalidade a distância a questão se torna mais complexa, visto que todo processo de aprendizagem é realizado em grande parte de forma autônoma pelos estudantes e que pode dificultar ainda mais a compreensão. Assim, nesse trabalho é apresentado uma proposta de apresentação e discussão do decaimento radioativo, com auxílio da plataforma PhET, onde ao realizar medidas, virtuais, de certa amostra é possível para que o estudante compreenda o significado das grandezas meia vida e a atividade de radioativa de uma amostra emissora de partícula alfa.

Authors: Vladimirovna Kharicheva Dina , Voldemarovna Bigler Lyudmila , Nikolaevich Baidalinov Sergei , Valeryevna Zhilina Anna , Anatolyevna Meleshkina Elena
Published: May 2020

Purpose of the study: The purpose of this work is to consider the possibilities of hermeneutics in developing the skill of understanding a musical text as one of the main mental abilities of musician-performers.

Methodology: The study is based on the method of hermeneutics, the method of analyzing a musical text, which is widely used in the humanities and social sciences in general and plays an essential role in art criticism. Unlike other methods, text analysis uses the point of view of the author of the text. Interpretative and content analysis are the two primary forms of textual analysis of cultural artifacts. Interpreting textual analysis seeks to go beyond the surface of the meaning and explore the hidden "message" of the author.

Main Findings: The main findings of the study are that the role of musical hermeneutics is important in the professional training of contemporary performers in connection with the need to develop their ability to understand a musical text and form a culture of interpretation.

Applications of this study: This research can be used in musicological analysis and the process of professional education of musician-performers and theorists. The novelty of the work consists in proving the effectiveness of the method of musical hermeneutics in the formation of a culture of interpretation in performers.

Novelty/Originality of this study: The method turned out to be effective for not only the theory of literature, hermeneutics, and semiotics, but also for musicology and the work of composers and performers directly working with intertexts.

Tendencias de la mortalidad materna en el Instituto Materno Infantil, 1950-1980
Authors: Klevens B. Joanne , Díaz LI. Rodrigo
Published: May 2020

El análisis de la mortalidad materna en el Instituto Materno Infantil a través de tres décadas muestra:—Un descenso rápido de la tasa de mortalidad materna de 1950 a 1960 y un descenso lento de las tasas de 1960 a 1980.—Que la mayor proporción de la mortalidad en todos los períodos de estudio corresponde a mortalidad materna de causa directa y esta, a su vez, se distribuye en 4 causas principales: aborto, infección puerperal, toxemia y hemorragia.—Un descenso de las tasas de mortalidad por toxemia y hemorragia, especialmente en el período 1950-1960.—Relativa estabilidad de las tasas de mortalidad por aborto e infección a pesar de los avances en técnicas de asepsia y antisepsia.— Variación en la importancia relativa de estas 4 causas. En la década de los 50, la hemorragia y la toxemia ocupaban los primeros lugares. Después de este período, las primeras causas de mortalidad son el aborto y la infección.Ante estos resultados, se plantea la posibilidad de reducir aún más la mortalidad materna en el Instituto mediante el estudio de los factores de riesgo de la infección puerperal, el análisis de las medidas pertinentes para su prevención y control y la aplicación de estas medidas en conjunto con las ya conocidas para la prevención y control de morbimortalidad por aborto.
УЧЕТ ПАРАМЕТРА АНИЗОТРОПИИ ПРОНИЦАЕМОСТИ В ГЕОЛОГО-ГИДРОДИНАМИЧЕСКИХ МОДЕЛЯХ КАРБОНАТНЫХ ОБЪЕКТОВ (НА ПРИМЕРЕ ГАГАРИНСКОГО МЕСТОРОЖДЕНИЯ)

Published: May 2020

Актуальность работы. Значительная доля разрабатываемых нефтяных активов, приуроченных к карбонатным сложнопостроенным объектам, заметно возросла как на территории России, так и в Пермском крае. Достоверное знание параметров трещинно-порового типа коллектора позволяет уточнить действующие геолого-гидродинамические модели, подобрать рациональную систему разработки, регулировать процессы разработки и обеспечить для данного пласта оптимальные геолого-технические мероприятия. При построении и адаптации геолого-гидродинамических моделей нефтяных месторождений, особенно относящихся к сложнопостроенным карбонатным коллекторам, важное значение имеет знание как горизонтальной, так и вертикальной проницаемости (параметра анизотропии). При создании геолого-гидродинамических моделей карбонатных объектов месторождений Пермского края зачастую вертикальную проницаемость принимают равной нулю, хотя это далеко не так. Определение вертикальной проницаемости (параметра анизотропии), ее динамика при изменении пластового и забойного давлений и использование в геолого-гидродинамических моделях является актуальной задачей, которая позволит повысить качество и достоверность использования цифровых моделей для расчета и прогнозирования процесса добычи нефти. Цель: совершенствование геолого-гидродинамических моделей с учетом использования показателя анизотропии проницаемости. Объект: карбонатная фаменская залежь Гагаринского месторождения. Методы:обработка данных геолого-промысловых исследований; использование гидродинамического симулятораTempest версии 8.3.1 компании Roxar. Результаты. По предложенной в статье методике определения параметра анизотропии обработаны 252 исследования, проведенные на добывающих и нагнетательных скважинах фаменской залежи Гагаринского месторождения. Для каждой литолого-фациальной зоны построена зависимость показателя анизотропии проницаемости от забойного давления. Для прогнозирования и оценки эффективности применяемых геолого-технических мероприятий и технологических показателей разработки авторами статьи модифицирована геолого-гидродинамическая модель с учетом полученных зависимостей об изменении параметра анизотропии. С помощью модифицированной гидродинамической модели удалось значительно улучшить адаптацию как по добывающим, так и по нагнетательным скважинам. Таким образом, повысилось качество и достоверность цифровой модели фаменской залежи Гагаринского месторождения для расчетов и прогнозирования процесса добычи нефти.

Актуальность. В условиях снижения прироста разведанных запасов нефти важной задачей перед нефтяной отраслью России является вовлечение в активную разработку залежей с трудноизвлекаемыми запасами, характеризующихся низкой степенью их выработки, но обладающих значительными остаточными запасами. К таким объектам относятся залежи в терригенных коллекторах меловых отложений Западно-Сибирской нефтегазоносной провинции. Повышение эффективности их разработки позволит существенно расширить ресурсную базу страны. Цель:создание комплекса алгоритмов и методик, позволяющих снизить степени неопределенности и риски принятия управляющих решений, направленных на повышение эффективности управления активами недропользователя. Методы. Проведен геолого-промысловый анализ и обобщение опыта применения внутриконтурного заводнения в условиях различных групп относительно однородных объектов с использованием комплекса имеющейся информации о процессе заводнения с широким применением различных математических алгоритмов обработки данных и критериев информативности. Результаты.Предложены алгоритмы, позволяющие оценивать степень взаимодействия добывающих и нагнетательных скважин на участках с различными значениями параметров, характеризующих геологическое строение при различном их размещении, выбирать добывающие скважины для перевода их под нагнетание, определять необходимость бурения новых скважин и боковых стволов, использовать скважины транзитного фонда, оценивать ожидаемые дебиты добывающих скважин, окружающих нагнетательные, а также решать ряд других задач разработки.Установлено, что в условиях различных групп объектов степень влияния геологических параметров на степень взаимодействия скважин различна, что обусловливает необходимость дифференцированного подхода не только к выбору расстояний между добывающими и нагнетательными скважинами для повышения эффективности закачки в пласт воды, но и при решении других задач управления разработкой объектов добычи нефти. Выводы. Проведенное обобщение, полученные результаты и алгоритмы дополняют научно-методические основы повышения эффективности управления разработкой залежей нефти с трудноизвлекаемыми запасами с использованием закачки в пласт воды в пределах Западно-Сибирской нефтегазоносной провинции с минимальными неопределенностями и рисками.

We consider the necessity of the fair activities development in the urban culture space. A fair has the beneficial influence on social and cultural and economic changes in the urban environment. The research is based on the relevance of studying the fair potential as a social and cultural phenomenon, which is both economic and cultural as it contains functions of a social and cultural nature. To determine the fair social aspects in the urban culture space we consider fair as a social institution, examine its social and organizational activities. We consider the historical aspects of the fair appearance and functioning in the urban culture space. The social aspects of the fair are determined in many ways by the material world peculiarities which fill the fair space. Social, cultural senses and meanings are enclosed in the fair things and the fair itself is some kind of a language of culture. Communicative function of the fair is significant, it manifests itself in the creation of a communicative space, which includes communication, information exchange, self-realization, self-representation. A cultural and historical analysis of the fair social aspects led to several conclusions. Firstly, modern fairs are aimed at the preservation and reproduction of traditional culture. Secondly, such events contribute to the formation of new economic and social and cultural communication platforms. Such events as the fair fill the urban space with art, creative life, and allow urban culture to develop. The fair contributes to the renewal and dynamics of urban space. It preserves and complements the traditional sphere of cultural heritage.

We consider English substitutes which represent the knowledge of substances. The relevance of the study is provided by the fact that the cognitive basis of substitutes, derived from adjectives, hasn’t been the subject of the study yet. The aim of this work is the cognitive modeling of English substitutes, the description of the field of knowledge that gets objectification through substitutes. The analysis material is provided by 35 examples selected by the sampling method from the Concise Oxford English Dictionary, The Free Dictionary, Oxford English Dictionary. During the analysis a set of analysis methods is used among which a relatively new method of cognitive-matrix analysis is presented. As the result of the provided study it is established that the structure of the knowledge, objectified by English substitutes, derived from adjectives, can be presented as a private cognitive matrix that includes the core (the SUBSTANCE concept) and a number of cognitive contexts. Conceptual derivation is defined as the main cognitive process providing substantivation of adjectives. The definitive analysis of the considered English substitutes allowed us to identify their derivational meanings which are related to the propositional cognitive models. It was revealed that the formation of the considered substitutes is carried out by propositional cognitive models of two types.

A literatura infantil tem duplo destinatário: a criança (leitor) e o adulto (comprador), de modo que os paratextos externos tendem a se dividir entre ambos. Assim, visa-se, com base nos paratextos veiculados na primeira capa e na quarta capa de livros de narrativas por imagens, discutir quem é o público-alvo de obras literárias integrantes da Categoria 2 da Educação Infantil do PNBE 2014. Os livros Ladrão de galinhas, de Béatrice Rodriguez, e Calma, camaleão!, de Laurent Cardon são analisados com base em postulados de Genette (2009). Os resultados apontam a importância das mensagens paratextuais para a interpretação. Infere-se, a partir do estudo, que tanto a produção do livro como a mediação docente deve considerar os paratextos nos processos de formação do leitor.

O Transtorno do Espectro Autista (TEA) é caracterizado por déficits persistentes na comunicação e interação social, bem como padrões de comportamentos repetitivos e interesses restritos. O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar o efeito da aplicação de um programa de ensino por pais/cuidadores sobre o desempenho de seu filho. Participaram uma menina de 18 meses, com TEA, e sua cuidadora. Trata-se de pesquisa quase experimental, intrassujeitos, do tipo AB (linha de base, tratamento e follow-up). Foi conduzido um programa individualizado para ensinar a cuidadora a utilizar procedimentos lúdicos, visando promover a interação social e o aumento de turnos interacionais dos participantes. Os desempenhos foram registrados em sessões semanais de 40 min, por um ano. Os dados das respostas da cuidadora foram submetidos ao Tau-U. Esta estatística, não paramétrica, revelou que nem todas as respostas da cuidadora, na fase de intervenção, mostraram fortes efeitos do tratamento, enquanto outros atestaram a robustez do mesmo. Com 95% de probabilidade de acerto, os procedimentos de intervenção afetaram significativamente as seguintes respostas : “usar músicas infantis” e “fazer um comentário engraçado ou elogioso para que a criança voltasse a brincar”. Na fase de intervenção houve  aumento considerável de iniciativas de Izabel e de respostas da cuidadora, assim como das diversas modalidades de respostas  de ambas. Assim, o programa de formação da cuidadora influenciou de forma significante a frequência de turnos e as modalidades de respostas da criança; e que a intervenção, via cuidadora, orientada por profissional, pode ser efetiva e apropriada ao contexto socioeconômico brasileiro.
Internacionalização da Educação Superior: redefinições, justificativas e estratégias
Authors: Santos Filho José Camilo dos
Published: May 2020

Neste texto de cunho teórico, tratamos de três aspectos que consideramos relevantes para a compreensão do tema da internacionalização da Educação Superior: (1) conceitos de internacionalização da Educação Superior, destacando as diferentes perspectivas de sua definição; (2) razões ou rationales da internacionalização da Educação Superior, sintetizadas em duas grandes categorias por alguns autores – razões políticas e econômicas e razões culturais e educacionais – ou em quatro por outros autores – razões política, econômica, sociocultural e acadêmica; e (3) estratégias de internacionalização da Educação Superior, traduzidas num conjunto de atividades que operacionalizam a política da instituição universitária. A implementação da política de internacionalização implica comprometimento efetivo, seja no nível estatal, seja no nível institucional, com sua incorporação explícita nos propósitos e funções atuais da universidade contemporânea.

Published: May 2020

ABSTRACTThis study examines the impact of macroeconomic variables, namely the exchange rate, interest rates, industrial production index, SBIS and inflation on the Indonesian Islamic stock index. This study uses monthly data from May 2011 to December 2018. This research is a quantitative study that applies the Johansen Cointegration Test and Vector Error Correction Model to see the long-term impact and shock response on certain variables. The findings indicate the existence of short-term and long-term causality between macroeconomic variables and the Indonesian Islamic stock index. Especially in the long run, industrial production index and inflation have a significant effect on ISSI, while the exchange rate, interest rates and SBIS have no significant effect on ISSI. IRF results show that the response of each variable and stable at different times. The ISSI response experienced a positive shock that occurred in the industrial production index and inflation. On the other hand, the exchange rate, the Bungan rate and SBIS were responded negatively by ISSI.

ABSTRACTBackground: Sarcopenia is a decrease in muscle mass and strength that mostly happens in the elderly. Sarcopenia is a problem that is often found in the elderly who are at risk of disability, hospitalization and death. This data on muscle mass and strength with physical performance is expected to support the theory of sarcopenia and as a reference in promoting and preventing sarcopenia in elderly.Aims: To analyze the association between muscle mass and strength (handgrip strength) with physical performance assessed using Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) in an elderly community.Methods: This study was a cross-sectional observational analytic study involving 203 sample of elderly (age >60 years old). The subjects were categorized as the strong and weak muscle mass and muscle strength, also the high, moderate and low physical performance. We used Bioimpedance Analysis (BIA) and hand dynamometer to measure muscle mass and muscle strength (handgrip strength). SPPB was used to assess physical performance.The association between muscle mass and strength with physical performance was displayed in bivariate analysis with chi square.Result: Of all 203 subjects, 57 were males and 146 were females. Chi square test showed association between muscle strength (handgrip strength) with physical performance (SPPB) (p=0.001), with a weak correlation (r=0.26) and no association between muscle mass and physical performance (SPPB) (p=0.517).Conclusion: There is a positive association between muscle strength with physical performance, with a weak correlation and no association between muscle mass and physical performance in the elderly community in Surabaya.
