Penerapan Metode Preceptorship dalam Kegiatan Orientasi untuk Perawat Baru pada Unit Hemodialisis di Rumah Sakit
Authors: Aryanti Eriliana , Dimpudus Rima Aurelia , Setiawati Lisa , Wardhani Viera
Published: October 2020

Latar Belakang: Praktik keperawatan yang dilakukan dalam pelayanan hemodialisis harus sesuai dengan standar profesi maupun standar prosedur operasional dengan memperhatikan aspek keselamatan pasien. Preceptorship merupakan salah satu metode yang dipersiapkan untuk meningkatkan kemampuan praktik klinis keperawatan. Tren peningkatan insiden ketidaktepatan insersi vena dan arteri pada pasien hemodialisis mendorong peneliti untuk mencari solusi dengan metode preceptorship.

Tujuan: Untuk mendeskripsikan penerapan metode preceptorship yang sudah digunakan dalam kegiatan orientasi perawat baru pada Unit Hemodialisis di rumah sakit serta berbagai faktor yang mempengaruhinya.

Metode: Metode penelitian menggunakan penelitian deskriptif berdasarkan hasil pengumpulan data primer dan sekunder. Berbagai faktor yang menjadi akar penyebab masalah dikelompokkan berdasarkan 5M, yaitu man, machine, method, material, dan money, kemudian dianalisis dengan menggunakan fishbone diagram dan 5 whys analysis. Akar penyebab masalah yang teridentifikasi diprioritaskan sesuai kriteria Urgency, Seriousness, dan Growth (USG) melalui Focus Group Discussion (FGD) yang diikuti oleh pejabat manajemen rumah sakit dan perawat Unit Hemodialisis sebagai subjek penelitian. Analisis data dilakukan secara deskriptif.

Hasil: Akar penyebab masalah terbesar dalam penerapan metode preceptorship di Unit Hemodialisis yaitu faktor sumber daya manusia berupa jam terbang dan jumlah yang kurang. Beberapa alternatif solusi yang dapat dilakukan antara lain perlu ditetapkan standardisasi dalam penerapan metode preceptorship terkait waktu pelaksanaan bimbingan, perlunya pelatihan komunikasi asertif dalam metode preceptorship untuk meningkatkan kepercayaan antara pasien dengan perawat, dibutuhkan penetapan target bagi perawat baru untuk melakukan tindakan keperawatan pada pasien hemodialisis, dan penyediaan fasilitas laboratorium untuk peningkatan keahlian perawat di bidang hemodialisis.

Kesimpulan: Terdapat beberapa kendala dalam penerapan metode preceptorship pada perawat baru di Unit Hemodialisis. Kendala berupa teknis pelaksanaan bimbingan, perbandingan jumlah preceptor dengan perawat baru, pemenuhan kualifikasi sebagai preceptor, dan standardisasi untuk mengevaluasi preceptor maupun peningkatan kompetensi perawat baru yang dihasilkan setelah menjalani masa orientasi. Perlu disusun modul yang dapat digunakan sebagai standardisasi panduan dalam kegiatan pendidikan dan pelatihan berbasis metode preceptorship pada Unit Hemodialisis di rumah sakit.
Faktor-faktor yang Berpengaruh terhadap Luaran Klinis Seksio Sesaerea Emergensi di Rumah Sakit Sint Carolus Jakarta
Authors: Setijanto Ivanna Theresa
Published: October 2020

Latar Belakang : Seksio sesarea (SC) emergensi bertujuan untuk menyelamatkan nyawa ibu dan janin saat terjadi komplikasi kehamilan dan persalinan, namun tidak semua kasus SC emergensi terdapat ancaman nyawa ibu atau janin. Indikasi yang tepat, waktu pelaksanaan yang tepat diharapkan dapat memberikan luaran klinis yang baik bagi ibu dan bayi. Persiapan pelaksanaan SC emergensi di RS St. Carolus saat ini sebagian besar (68,5%) berlangsung lebih dari standar PONEK, lebih dari 30 menit setelah diputuskan. Evaluasi mengenai kesesuaian indikasi dan dampak pelaksanaan SC emergensi terhadap luaran klinis ibu dan bayi belum pernah dilakukan. 

Tujuan : Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui faktor-faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap luaran klinis SC emergensi di RS St. Carolus Jakarta.

Metode : Sebuah penelitian potong lintang, observasional analitik di RS St. Carolus Jakarta pada Agustus 2017 hingga Oktober 2017. Subyek dikumpulkan secara konsekutif hingga batas waktu yang ditentukan, melalui kriteria inklusi dan eklusi, diikutkan dalam penelitian. Sampel diteliti ketepatan indikasi SC emergensi, faktor yang mempengaruhi serta dampaknya terhadap luaran klinis ibu dan bayi.

Hasil : Terdapat 41 subyek yang masuk dalam penelitian. Tidak didapatkan faktor yang berpengaruh terhadap luaran klinis ibu. Paritas ibu menjadi faktor prediktor pelaksanaan IMD (OR 4,5 IK 95% 1,009-20,24). Dari 41 subyek tersebut, 22 % subyek termasuk dalam standar kegawatdaruratan ibu atau janin. Decision to delivery interval (DDI) keseluruhan adalah 170 menit, dan pada keadaan gawat darurat ibu atau bayi adalah 77 menit, SC dilakukan sesuai kategori kegawatan SC emergensi (p<0,05).

Kesimpulan : Faktor yang berperan dalam luaran klinis SC emergensi adalah paritas ibu terhadap IMD. Operasi SC emergensi telah dilakukan sesuai klinis, dan DDI bukan merupakan prediktor namun indikator kualitas layanan emergensi.

Destructive earthquakes usually causes gargantuan casualties. So, to cut back these inimical casualties’ analysis are made to reduce despicable and forlorn impacts which they left upon others to just ponder and become lugubrious. These factors measure the decisive casualties it brings and also earthquake and therefore the development of rational prediction model to casualties become a crucial analysis topic, as a result of quality and cognitive content of gift prediction methodology of price, an additional correct prediction model is mentioned by gray correlation theory and BP neural networks. The earthquake can be analyzed succinct by using various technique mainly predictive commands to marshal all the calculated time and magnitude of a potential earthquake have been the topic of the many studies varied ways are tried mistreatment several input variables like temperature exorable, seismic movements and particularly the variable climatic conditions. The relation between recorded seismal-acoustic information associate degreed occurring an abnormal seismic process (ASP). However, it's obstreperous to predict all parameters the placement, time and magnitude of the earthquake by mistreatment this information. This model description is different from others as with the help of the prediction commands most of the paragons and domains are identified and tend to explore the activity of serious Earthquakes. We use the preemptive data information which is collected around the planet. We retrieved the data to perceive that associate degree earthquake reaches the class of exceeds a grade range of eight on Richter Scale. The two main affected areas are in the field of Data Exploration and Data Mapping. Number of occurrences of an earthquake with different magnitude ranges, severity of an earthquake. Mapping is thereby crucial to identify highly affected areas based on Magnitude and Correlation between depth and magnitude. So, based on the above explorations we have made the following predictions. Predictions Magnitude based on depth. Magnitude based on Latitude and Longitude. Depth based on Latitude and Longitude The primitive algorithm used here are the Machine Learning Algorithm I.e. Linear Regression and KMeans Clustering. Firstly, we have made all the predictions via Linear Regression and made different clusters of the Earthquakes which belong to the same subdivision as that of Magnitude or Depth.

Authors: Yevtushenko A. V.
Published: October 2020

The research aimed to determine the peculiarities of the formation of the parasitic system in herbivorous fish in the aquaculture of the North-Eastern and Eastern regions of Ukraine. In fish farms of the North-Eastern and Eastern regions of Ukraine, 26 species of parasites were found in herbivorous fish: 19 species in the silver carp (11 — protozoa, 1 — monogeneans, 4 — trematodes, 3 — parasitic crustaceans); 18 species in the grass carp (6 — protozoa, 1 — monogeneans, 4 — trematodes, 4 — cestodes, 3 — parasitic crustaceans); and 20 species in the bighead carp (10 — protozoa, 1 — monogeneans, 4 — trematodes, 2 — cestodes, 3 — parasitic crustaceans). 11 species (42.3%) of registered parasites were invasive; 18 species (69.2%) of the detected herbivorous fish’s parasites develop directly and 8 (30.8%) — with the participation of definitive and intermediate hosts; the fish is an additional (second intermediate) host in the life cycle of 6 species (23.1%) of parasites. Outbreaks of diseases caused by parasitic protozoa from the genera Myxobolus, Cryptobia, Chilodonella, and Ichthyophthirius have been reported in both fingerlings and two-year-olds. The protozoa from the genera Ichthyobodo, Trichodina, and Trichodinella were registered en masse only in fingerlings. Pathogens from the genus Dactylogyrus were more often registered among three-year-old silver and bighead carps. Metacercariae of Ichthyocotylurus variegatus were found en masse in fingerlings of the grass carp. Posthodiplostomum cuticola larvae in unfavorable farms were found with a high level of prevalence in fish of different age groups. Thong plerocercoids were more commonly recorded in two-year-old silver and bighead carps and fingerlings of the grass carp. The highest level of cestode infection with Bothriocephalus acheilognathi was recorded in fingerlings of the grass carp. Parasitic crustaceans Sinergasilus lieni with a high level of prevalence were registered in two-year-old and three-year-old fish. Crustaceans Lernaea cyprinacea massively affected two-year-old and three-year-old fish. Pathogens from the genera Trichodina, Cryptobia, and Chilodonella, and Dactylogyrus hypophthalmichthys, Posthodiplostomum cuticola, and Sinergasilus lieni were of the greatest epizootic significance for the silver carp; for the bighead carp — from the genus Myxobolus, (especially M. pavlovskii), Chilodonella piscicola, Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, Dactylogyrus aristichthys, Posthodiplostomum cuticola, Diplostomum spathaceum, Digramma interrupta, and Sinergasilus lieni; for the grass carp — Bothriocephalus acheilognathi, Ichthyocotylurus variegatus, Ligula intestinalis, Sinergasilus major, Lernaea cyprinacea, Ichthyobodo necator, and Ichthyophthirius multifiliis

Published: October 2020

This research is to determine the features of identification of products of the slaughter of nutria while post-slaughter veterinary-sanitary control, to assess the slaughtered yield, to study the peculiarities of the chemical and biochemical composition of the products of the slaughter of nutrias. This will allow, under the conditions of import substitution, to extend the source of raw materials for the production of sausage products and assortment of meat ready-to-cook foods. This paper represents the results of the veterinary and sanitary assessment of nutria meat as a prospective raw material for the meat processing industry in Ukraine. The peculiarities of identification of slaughter products of nutria are determined by the presence of fat deposits, rounded form lipoma, and the structure of internal organs while post-slaughter veterinary and sanitary control of nutrias’ carcasses. It is proved, nutrias have been shown to have a sufficiently high slaughter yield of 57.5 ± 2.3% as compared to rabbits. It has been proven that nutria has a fairly high lethal yield compared to a crawl. The difference in the slaughter rate of female and male species was negligible and was 4.5 ± 1.4%. Nutrias’ Meat Index is 4.9 ± 0.7. The high content of flesh on the spinal-chest and the thigh makes it possible to recommend these parts to produce portion (pieces) semi-finished products According to physicochemical composition nutria meat is characterized by an increased content of moisture (90.27 ± 2.18%), high content of protein (20.82 ± 1.15%) and low content of fat (8.34 ± 0.71%), which makes it possible to attribute this kind of meat to dietary
A concept for human-cyber-physical systems of future wind turbines towards Industry 5.0
Authors: Chen Xiao , Eder Martin Alexander , Shihavuddin ASM
Published: October 2020

This work proposes a novel concept for a semi-autonomous human-cyber-physical system (HCPS) to operate next-generation wind turbines on the way towards Industry 5.0. The exponential increase in the complexity of future wind turbines requires artificial intelligence (AI) to operate the machines efficiently and consistently. Evolving current Industry 4.0 digital twin technology beyond a sole aid for a human decision-making process, the digital twin in the proposed system is utilized for highly effective training of the AI through machine learning. Human intelligence (HI) is elevated to a supervisory level, making high-level decisions through a human-machine interface to break the autonomy when needed. This paper points out a plausible way to realize the HCPS by identifying strategic development demands for the key enabling technologies projected from readily available knowledge.
Outlier-Robust Kernel Hierarchical-Optimization RLS On A Budget With Affine Constraints
Authors: Slavakis Konstantinos , Yukawa Masahiro
Published: October 2020

This paper introduces a non-parametric learning framework to combat outliers in online, multi-output, and nonlinear regression tasks. A hierarchical-optimization problem underpins the learning task: Search in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) for a function that minimizes a sample average $\ell_p$-norm ($1 \leq p \leq 2$) error loss on data contaminated by noise and outliers, subject to side information that takes the form of affine constraints defined as the set of minimizers of a quadratic loss on a finite number of faithful data devoid of noise and outliers. To surmount the computational obstacles inflicted by the choice of loss and the potentially infinite dimensional RKHS, approximations of the $\ell_p$-norm loss, as well as a novel twist of the criterion of approximate linear dependency are devised to keep the computational-complexity footprint of the proposed algorithm bounded over time. Numerical tests on datasets showcase the robust behavior of the advocated framework against different types of outliers, under a low computational load, while satisfying at the same time the affine constraints, in contrast to the state-of-the-art methods which are constraint agnostic.

Investigation of the Effect of Reducing the Thickness of Road Surfacing Layers Within the Tolerance Limits on the Reliability and Durability of Highways
Authors: Гошовец С. В.
Published: October 2020

Состояние проблемы. Считается, что уменьшение толщины слоя в пределах допуска не оказывает существенного влияния на надежность и долговечность дорожной одежды. Так как конструкция дорожной одежды, как правило, состоит из нескольких слоев, можно предположить, что занижение толщины слоев в пределах допуска может оказать негативное влияние на прочность конструкции в целом. Применительно к отечественным нормам проектирования и строительства данное предположение остается не изученным. Результаты. Проведен анализ показателей, характеризующих толщину слоя, и практик назначения строительных допусков. Проанализированы исследования влияния допуска на надежность дорожной одежды и рекомендации по корректировке толщины слоев конструкции под влиянием допусков. Выполнены моделирование и расчет конструкций с учетом допусков. Выводы. Полученные результаты подтвердили предположение о том, что уменьшение толщины слоев дорожной одежды в пределах допусков негативно влияет на все критерии прочности. Предложено решение по устранению несогласованности между строительными допусками и нормами проектирования.

Statement of the problem. Reducing the layer thickness within the tolerance is considered not to have a significant effect on the reliability and durability of the road surface structure. Since the construction of roadways usually consists of several layers, the assumption that understating the thickness of the layers within the tolerance can have a negative impact on the overall strength of the structure is not unreasonable. In relation to the domestic standards for the design and construction of this assumption has not yet been studied. Results. The analysis of indicators characterizing the layer thickness and practices for the purpose of construction tolerances, analysis of recommendations in the design standards for correcting the thickness of the layers of the structure due to the influence of tolerances, studies of the influence of tolerance on the reliability of road pavement, modeling and calculation of structures with allowances, suggestions are provided. Conclusions. The results confirmed the assumption that reducing the thickness of road surface layers within the tolerance limits negatively affects all the strength criteria. We have proposed a solution in order to eliminate inconsistencies between construction tolerances and design standards.

Authors: Юшкова Н. Г.
Published: October 2020

Постановка задачи. Новые тенденции в градостроительстве ХХI в. отражают влияние научно-технического прогресса и развития общественных отношений. В территориальных системах расселения отмечается выраженная динамика градостроительных процессов, их региональная идентичность, неоднородность и локальность размещения в пространстве. Без должной методологии сохранение сложившегося структурно-функционального порядка становится проблематичным. Установление особенностей и закономерностей развития территориальных систем как основа их реорганизации требует систематизации новейшего градостроительного опыта. Результаты. Выявлено наличие особой группы объектов - локальных градостроительных образований, обоснованы их характерные признаки, предопределяющие построение типологии. На основе дифференциации способов их взаимодействия с территориальными системами сформулированы основные положения методологии градостроительного планирования. Выводы. Признаки, свойства и характеристики локальных градостроительных образований определяют динамику территориальных систем. Их учет при обосновании градостроительных решений позволяет реализовать одновременно требования устойчивости и инноватизации, что способствует формированию в территориальных системах новых элементов и связей, обусловливает процесс градостроительной эволюции и содействует повышению комфортности среды жизнедеятельности.

Statement of the problem. New trends in urban planning of the 21 century are indicative of the influence of scientific and technological progress and the development of social relations. In the territorial systems of settlement, there is a distinct dynamics of urban planning processes, their regional identity, heterogeneity and locality of location in space. Without the proper methodology, the preservation of the existing structural and functional order becomes an issue. Identifying the features and patterns of development of territorial systems as the basis for their reorganization requires systematization of the latest urban planning experience. Results. A special group of objects was identified - local urban formations, their characteristic features were substantiated that predetermine the construction of a typology. Based on the differentiation of the ways of their interaction with territorial systems, the major provisions of the methodology of urban planning are formulated. Conclusions. Signs, properties and characteristics of local urban formations are central to the dynamics of territorial systems. Taking them into consideration while justifying urban planning decisions allows one to simultaneously implement the requirements of sustainability and innovation, which contributes to the emergence of new elements and connections in territorial systems as well as determines the process of urban planning evolution and contributes to an increase in the comfort of the living environment.
Problems of Analysis of Design and Research Methods of Interaction with the Urban Environment
Authors: Капустин П. В. , Гаврилов А. И.
Published: October 2020

Состояние проблемы. Проблематика городской среды заявила о себе в 1960-е годы как протест против модернистских методов урбанизма и других видов проектирования. Средовое движение не случайно тогда именовали «антипрофессиональным» - оно было направлено против устоявшихся и недейственных методов работы с городом - от исследования до управления. За прошедшие десятилетия в рамках самого средового движения и его идейных наследников наработано немало методов и приемов работы, однако они до сих не подвергались анализу как пребывающая в исторической динамике целостная совокупность инструментария, альтернативного традиционному градостроительству. Результаты. Рассмотрены особенности и проблемы анализа методологического «арсенала» средового движения и урбанистики. Методы работы с городской средой впервые структурированы по типам знания. Показана близость методов исследовательского и проектного подходов в отношении городской среды. Выводы. В ближайшее время можно ожидать появления новых синтетических знаний и частных методологий, связанных как с обострением средовой проблематики, с расширением круга средовых акторов, так и с процессом профессионализации урбанистики.

Statement of the problem. The urban environment paradigm emerged in the 1960s as a protest against the modernist methods of urbanism and other types of design. It was no coincidence that the environmental movement was back then called "anti-professional" as it was directed against the established and ineffective methods of working with the city, i. e., from research to management. Over the past decades, within the framework of the environmental movement and its ideological heirs, a lot of methods and have been developed. However, they have not yet been analyzed as an integral set of tools in the historical dynamics which is an alternative to traditional urban planning. Results. The features and problems of the analysis of the methodological “arsenal” of environmental movement and urban studies are considered. The methods of working with the urban environment are first structured according to the types of knowledge. The proximity of research and design approaches in the case when the urban environment is dealt with is shown. Conclusions. In the nearest future, we can expect new synthetic knowledge and particular methodologies related to both the exacerbation of environmental problems to emerge as well as the expansion of the circle of environmental actors and the process of professionalization of urbanstics.

Deverbal nominalizations in Ktunaxa
Authors: Gatchalian Terrance
Published: October 2020

This paper presents an overview on deverbal nominalizations from Ktunaxa, a language isolate spoken in eastern British Columbia, Canada. Deverbal nominalizations are formed uniformly with a left-peripheral nominalizing particle k (Morgan 1991). However, they do not form a single homogenous class with respect to various syntactic properties. These properties are illustrated with novel data, showing that deverbal nominalizations fall into at least two classes, which are analyzed here as nominalization taking place at either vP or VP, where vP-nominalizations include the external argument and VP-nominalizations do not. Evidence for this division comes from how possession is expressed, the interpretation of the passive (and passive-like constructions), and the licensing of verbal modifiers. As both classes of deverbal nominalizations are constructed uniformly with the nominalizing particle, these properties are derived syntactically from the size of the verbal constituent being nominalized.

PERCEPTIONS AND ABILITIES RELATED TO PATIENT ENGAGEMENT IN DIABETES CARE AMONG PRIMARY HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS IN MALAYSIA: A QUALITATIVE STUDY
Authors: Kragelund Nielsen Karoline , Calopietro Michael , Yeow Toh Peng , Tahir bin Aris  , Bjerre-Christensen Ulla
Published: October 2020

Malaysia seeks to transform its public healthcare sector to manage the growing number of people with diabetes. Patient engagement is a critical clinical competency for healthcare providers treating people with diabetes. In this study, we investigate the perceptions of and ability to practice patient engagement among doctors and nurses working in Malaysia’s primary healthcare system. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine non-specialist doctors and ten nurses working in primary healthcare clinics. Further, 12 key informants with specialist knowledge about diabetes care and the healthcare system in Malaysia were interviewed. The interviews were analyzed using qualitative content analysis. Three main themes emerged: 1) understanding barriers to self-care and treatment, 2) perceived training needs and skills within patient engagement and empowerment, and 3) challenges to the practice of patient engagement. A range of barriers was identified in healthcare providers’ ability to practice patient engagement. Future efforts should seek to improve competencies within patient engagement, identification of especially psychosocial barriers to self-care and empowerment. Yet, available manpower and time also influence whether patient engagement is practiced.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a well-known risk factor for tuberculosis (TB). Prevalence of TB among DM patients ranged from 1.7 % to 36 %. Limited information has been reported regarding TB among DM patients in Indonesia. This case-control study aimed to investigate prevalence and related factors of pulmonary TB among DM patients in Dr. Kariadi General Hospital. Cases of pulmonary TB were defined by a positive acid-fast bacilli smear or molecular rapid test and thorax x-ray. Data were presented as frequency and percentage comparing the case and control group. Chi-square continued by Binary logistic regression analyses were done to determine the relationship between the parameters and TB status performed by the SPSS 16. Prevalence of 8.02% or 72 patients were diagnosed as having pulmonary TB from 898 registered patients with DM. Of the 72 TB patients, 30 completed the data as case group, and 45 DM patients without TB determined as a control group. Comparison between the case and control group study found differences in household contact (63.3 % and 4.4 %, respectively), random plasma glucose (76.7 % and 33.3 %), duration of DM (40 % and 71 %), and treatment compliance (30 % and 68.9 %). The final   model in Binary logistic regression involved household contact, random plasma glucose level, and treatment compliance. The prevalence of pulmonary TB among DM patients in Dr. Kariadi General Hospital was 8.02%. Risk factors that were associated with this occurrence were: household contact, high random plasma glucose level, and poor treatment compliance.

Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed with descriptive statistics, and binary logistic regression. The results were revealed the risk factors affecting CKD including aged, dyslipidemia, being ill of diabetes mellitus, being unable to control blood pressure, being unable to control blood sugar level, taking add more salty seasoning to the cooked food, cooking with sodium salt over the prescribed amount, using the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, lack of exercise, herbal plants consumption as drugs that are toxic to the kidney, edema, foamy urine, and nocturia. All risk factors were able to co-predict the risk to CKD about 83.2% at the 0.05 level of significance. Therefore, to prevent early states with CKD in the high-risk populations, the focus should be on encouraging health literacy because health literary it has a positive relationship with health-promoting behaviors. The health care provider needs to concentrate on increasing health literacy for self– management with them.

A novel strain of coronavirus was first detected in Wuhan, China in December 2019. It is the causative agent of a respiratory disease known as the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). On 12th March 2020, it was declared as a global pandemic by the World Health Organization. The aim of the study was to study the impact of MCO in terms of the academic performance and finance on the student population and to measure the level of knowledge, attitude and practice towards prevention of coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) among a private university students in Malaysia. On 22nd April until 30th April 2020, a cross-sectional study using a convenient sampling method was conducted among 401 students using a self-administered online questionnaire survey. It was found that 272 (67.8%) of the respondents had a less negative impact of MCO while 129 (32.3%) of the respondent had a more negative impact of MCO. The findings show also 229 respondents (57.1%) have adequate knowledge. As for the attitude, about 237 respondents (59.1%) have an adequate attitude and only 191 respondents (47.6%) have adequate practice towards the prevention of COVID-19. There was a significant relationship between knowledge, attitude, and practice with family income, a significant relationship between knowledge and practice, a significant relationship between knowledge and attitude, a sig. relationship between knowledge, attitude, practice with university faculties, the relationship between knowledge and source of information. The MCO showed significant association with knowledge level and with practice, also MCO was less negatively impact on the medical faculty students with p-value 0.004. The MCO was more negatively impacting those with less family income. The study findings concluded that the majority of the participants had a fair level of knowledge, attitude, and a lesser level of good practice towards the prevention of COVID-19. However, the COVID-19 is still considered a global pandemic and has not resolved yet. Therefore, to minimize the risk of future COVID-19 cases current efforts to educate the public towards knowledge, attitude, and practice towards prevention of COVID-19 in public health should be done.

Despite the fines and action taken by authorities against illegal dental practise, it could not be eliminated and remain a threat to the public’s oral health. The aim of this study was to gather holistic evidence on unlicensed dental practice by collating news coverage, scientific research publications, and information on social media activities of illegal dental practitioners. Information on news coverage was collated via Google, Yahoo and Bing while information on research publications was obtained through three databases, Scopus, Pubmed and Google Scholar. Public data from Facebook and Instagram were extracted to gain information on illegal dental services actively provided. Out of 195 news reported regarding unlicensed dental practitioner, only 110 news reported on legal actions received with 81 news reports were on financial punishments, and the rest was on jail terms or probation. For scientific publications, only 13 related publications were found, and the majority were case reports. Despite having a law that stated an unlicensed dentist would be punished, there were more than 170 Facebook, and Instagram users with thousands of followers found actively offering illegal dental services to the public. In conclusion, not much attention was paid by the scientific community on illegal dental practice despite it being a significant public health issue and covered quite thoroughly in the news, and services are still actively offered through social media. This descriptive report helps give a holistic perspective on the illegal dental service providers issue, especially in Malaysia.

Drug utilization of oral hypoglycemic agents (OHAs) in a private healthcare setting is useful to examine the prescribing pattern of OHAs, especially the newer fixed dose combination (FDC) products. This study was aimed to evaluate the prescribing pattern of OHAs indicated for Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), to determine the costs of OHAs prescribed and total cost per prescription in the treatment of T2DM in an outpatient department of a private hospital located in central Malaysia. Retrospective review of electronic medical record (EMR) study design was adopted. Patient’s demographic characteristics, medications prescribed, prescribers’ details and cost per prescription were documented. Defined daily dose (DDD) of OHAs and drug cost were calculated. Research ethics protocol was approved and no personal data was collected. Out of the 396 EMR screened, 135 fulfilled the inclusion criteria and subsequently were analysed. In term of demography, mean age of the sample was 51 years old with 59% were male and ethnicity composition of 71% Malay and 19% Chinese. Metformin and “metformin+dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor” (DPP-4i) were the most commonly prescribed single-drug and FDC OHA, respectively. Average cost of OHAs and total cost per prescription was less than USD 68 and USD 185, respectively. Meanwhile, FDC covered 28.91% of incidences of prescriptions, but 44.6% of cost and SGTL-2i covered 9% incidences of prescriptions and 16.29% of cost. Prescribing pattern of OHA was appropriate based on patient’s T2DM diagnosis, however, dosage given were not in accordance with WHO DDD.

Introducing the NEMO-Lowlands iconic gesture dataset, collected through a gameful human–robot interaction
Authors: de Wit Jan , Krahmer Emiel , Vogt Paul
Published: October 2020

This paper describes a novel dataset of iconic gestures, together with a publicly available robot-based elicitation method to record these gestures, which consists of playing a game of charades with a humanoid robot. The game was deployed at a science museum (NEMO) and a large popular music festival (Lowlands) in the Netherlands. This resulted in recordings of 428 participants, both adults and children, performing 3715 silent iconic gestures for 35 different objects in a naturalistic setting. Our dataset adds to existing collections of iconic gesture recordings in two important ways. First, participants were free to choose how they represented the broad concepts using gestures, and they were asked to perform a second attempt if the robot did not recognize their gesture the first time. This provides insight into potential repair strategies that might be used. Second, by making the interactive game available we enable other researchers to collect additional recordings, for different concepts, and in diverse cultures or contexts. This can be done in a consistent manner because a robot is used as a confederate in the elicitation procedure, which ensures that every data collection session plays out in the same way. The current dataset can be used for research into human gesturing behavior, and as input for the gesture recognition and production capabilities of robots and virtual agents.

Published: October 2020

Cold war between US and Soviet Union ended in 1989 but Cold War between Russia and USA is still there. US-Soviet Cold war was in fact an indirect clash of ideologies, while the New Cold War between US and Russia is an indirect clash of hegemony and influence. USA considers itself the master of the Globe after the end of First Cold War and Russia does not accept the superiority of USA and practise all those Activities, which are mainly punished by super powers. Without the consent of US, Russia is cooperating with rogue states, it makes alliances, and it attacks small countries like Georgia and Ukraine. USA is busy in all those states which were previously part of Soviet Union like Central Asian Countries. This paper states that Cold war has not ended but it has taken a pause and again it has been started between Russia and USA. Glaring examples in this regards are formation of BRICS, SCO, EEC and NATO expansionism in Afghanistan and Iraq and US USSR involvement in Middle East.

Poverty is one of the main problems faced by the Pakistani economy that hinders economic growth and development. To surge the key elements, involved in poverty, this paper examines the effect of remittances, terrorism, GDP at factor cost, public spending on education and urbanization, on poverty reduction by apply VECM techniques, on data slab 1971 to 2018. Scales of some variables were transformed to log form to normalize them. The Johansen Co-integration shows long run relationship amongst the selected variables. The empirical results reveal that remittances, GDP at factor cost, public spending on education and health significantly play its role to alleviate poverty. Government must take some necessary steps involved in remittances receiving by poor household. The social protection programs must be extended to rural areas of the country so more people can be benefited from such programs.
