The results revealed that students participated in this study tended to use achievement strategies (73.07%) more frequently than avoidance strategies (26.92%). Specifically, students used nine out of twelve communication strategy types, and the most frequent strategy used by students while conducting discussion was the use of fillers strategy (51.28%).

Babasan, paribasa and Sundanese script (read: Kaganga) are barely known among the people. Although Sundanese used as means of communication, but cultural values that contain in them does not discover properly. Through appropiate technology in the form of kartu opat kalima pancer and popular fashion that nuanced local knowledge are expected people’s devotion and pride towards Sundanese cultural values in the basis of language can be grown.Keywords: cultural element, group identifier, narrowly missing, appropiate technology, devotion
Has It Always Been This Way? Tracing the Evolution of Teacher Quality Gaps in U.S. Public Schools
Authors: Goldhaber Dan , Quince Vanessa , Theobald Roddy

There is mounting evidence of substantial “teacher quality gaps” (TQGs) between advantaged and disadvantaged students but practically no empirical evidence about their history. We use longitudinal data on public school students, teachers, and schools from two states—North Carolina and Washington—to provide a descriptive history of the evolution of TQGs in these states. We find that TQGs exist in every year in each state, and for all measures, we consider student disadvantage and teacher quality. But there is variation in the magnitudes and sources of TQGs over time, between the two states, and depending on the measure of student disadvantage and teacher quality.

Background: Children in developing countries are now receiving surgical repair for congenital heart defects. Despite advancement in the medical and surgical field, in developing countries where we have severe budgetary constraints, lack of funding for maintenance, poverty, skilled manpower deficit and knowledge deficit among public, pediatric cardiac surgery still remains a major challenge. For the parents of those children undergone corrective surgery more in-depth educational sessions are required to enable them to recognize and anticipate the complications so as to manage their child effectively at home following discharge. The study aims to assess the knowledge regarding home care of children undergone cardiac surgery with a view to develop an information booklet in home care.Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among 60 mothers of children undergone cardiac surgery at a tertiary level cardiac center at Bengaluru, India using a structured knowledge questionnaire.Results: Result revealed that majority 55% of the mothers had moderate knowledge, 40% had inadequate knowledge and only 5% had adequateknowledge. Variables such as age, education, occupation of mothers and source of information were significantly associated (p <0.05) with the level of knowledge.Conclusions: The knowledge of mothers regarding home care of children undergone cardiac surgery was found to be insufficient to enable them to take care of their children. The inadequate knowledge can be effectivelystrengthened through information booklet, discharge teaching and other mass media used as a source of information in educating not only the mothers of children but also other family members who acts as a care taker.Med Phoenix Vol.2(1) July 2017, 38-43

Urinary tract infection is the second most common infection following respiratory tract infection. Among the outdoor and the indoor patients it is one of the common clinical state of affairs. For the effective management of this common clinical condition isolation of the common bacterial uropathogens and their antibiotic sensitivity profile is obligatory. In this present brief work an effort has been made to isolate the common bacterial uropathogen and their susceptibility pattern to the regularly used antimicrobial agents. We carried out this work in the Microbiology department of National Medical College from June 2016 to December 2016. In our study beside clean catched mid stream urine sample, catheterized urine sample and suprapubic aspirates are also collected. In our study we included a total of 516 UTI samples of patients. In our work 319 (62%) culture positive urine samples were from outpatient patient department while 197 (38%) were from inpatient department. Among both the outdoor and the indoor patient E. coli was the predominant organism followed by Klebsiella, Staphylococci, Enterococci and Pseudomonas. In our present work we found that the common bacterial isolates from the indoor patient showed higher degree resistance towards Aminopenicillin, Piperacillin, Nitrofurantoin, Ciprofloxacin and Nalidixic acid. Common bacterial uropathogens were found to be sensitive against Norfloxacin, Nitrofurantoin and Cephalosporins like Cefuroxime and Ceftazidime. It has also been found that beside E. coli other bacterial uropathogens were effective against third generation Cepahalosporins and Amikacin. This study clearly denotes that antibiotic sensitivity test should be carried out for determination of optimal treatment regimen against UTI.Med Phoenix Vol.2(1) July 2017, 74-77

OBJECTIVE

Ventral intermediate nucleus deep brain stimulation (DBS) for essential tremor is traditionally performed with intraoperative test stimulation and conscious sedation, without general anesthesia (GA). Recently, the authors reported retrospective data on 17 patients undergoing DBS after induction of GA with standardized anatomical coordinates on T1-weighted MRI sequences used for indirect targeting. Here, they compare prospectively collected data from essential tremor patients undergoing DBS both with GA and without GA (non-GA).

METHODS

Clinical outcomes were prospectively collected at baseline and 3-month follow-up for patients undergoing DBS surgery performed by a single surgeon. Stereotactic, euclidean, and radial errors of lead placement were calculated. Functional (activities of daily living), quality of life (Quality of Life in Essential Tremor [QUEST] questionnaire), and tremor severity outcomes were compared between groups.

RESULTS

Fifty-six patients underwent surgery: 16 without GA (24 electrodes) and 40 with GA (66 electrodes). The mean baseline functional scores and QUEST summary indices were not different between groups (p = 0.91 and p = 0.59, respectively). Non-GA and GA groups did not differ significantly regarding mean postoperative percentages of functional improvement (non-GA, 47.9% vs GA, 48.1%; p = 0.96) or QUEST summary indices (non-GA, 79.9% vs GA, 74.8%; p = 0.50). Accuracy was comparable between groups (mean radial error 0.9 ± 0.3 mm for non-GA and 0.9 ± 0.4 mm for GA patients) (p = 0.75). The mean euclidean error was also similar between groups (non-GA, 1.1 ± 0.6 mm vs GA, 1.2 ± 0.5 mm; p = 0.92). No patient had an intraoperative complication, and the number of postoperative complications was not different between groups (non-GA, n = 1 vs GA, n = 10; p = 0.16).

CONCLUSIONS

DBS performed with the patient under GA to treat essential tremor is as safe and effective as traditional DBS surgery with intraoperative test stimulation while the patient is under conscious sedation without GA.

OBJECTIVE

The aim of this study was to present long-term seizure outcome data in a consecutive series of patients with refractory mesial temporal lobe epilepsy primarily treated with transsylvian selective amygdalohippocampectomy (SAHE).

METHODS

The authors retrospectively analyzed prospectively collected data for all patients who had undergone resective surgery for medically refractory epilepsy at their institution between July 1994 and December 2014. Seizure outcome was assessed according to the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) and the Engel classifications.

RESULTS

The authors performed an SAHE in 158 patients (78 males, 80 females; 73 right side, 85 left side) with a mean age of 37.1 ± 10.0 years at surgery. Four patients lost to follow-up and 1 patient who committed suicide were excluded from analysis. The mean follow-up period was 9.7 years. At the last available follow-up (or before reoperation), 68 patients (44.4%) had achieved an outcome classified as ILAE Class 1a, 46 patients (30.1%) Class 1, 6 patients (3.9%) Class 2, 16 patients (10.4%) Class 3, 15 patients (9.8%) Class 4, and 2 patients (1.3%) Class 5. These outcomes correspond to Engel Class I in 78.4% of the patients, Engel Class II in 10.5%, Engel Class III in 8.5%, and Engel Class IV in 2.0%. Eleven patients underwent a second surgery (anterior temporal lobectomy) after a mean of 4.4 years from the SAHE (left side in 6 patients, right side in 5). Eight (72.7%) of these 11 patients achieved seizure freedom.

The overall ILEA seizure outcome since (re)operation after a mean follow-up of 10.0 years was Class 1a in 72 patients (47.0%), Class 1 in 50 patients (32.6%), Class 2 in 7 patients (4.6%), Class 3 in 15 patients (9.8%), Class 4 in 8 patients (5.2%), and Class 5 in 1 patient (0.6%). These outcomes correspond to an Engel Class I outcome in 84.3% of the patients.

CONCLUSIONS

A satisfactory long-term seizure outcome following transsylvian SAHE was demonstrated in a selected group of patients with refractory temporal lobe epilepsy.
