Development of compensatory and pragmatic competence in teaching foreign language to students of medical programmes
Authors: Glushchenko Oksana A.
Published: March 2021

The purpose of this work is to find ways to develop compensatory and pragmatic competencies in teaching English to future doctors using the case method. The relevance is due to modern trends in combining skills developed in higher education under a single professional competence, which requires the combination of all elements of education. The definitions of compensatory and pragmatic competences are given, their features are described. The components of these competencies in their systemic connection with each other and with teaching methods are consi-dered, the necessary conditions for their formation are identified. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that in order to achieve the goal, the case method was adapted to the specifics of medical programmes. The proposed changes made it applicable in problem language learning by shifting the emphasis of control from a solution to the communicative part of the search process. The methodology of the work included abstracted modeling of educational and language situations and their subsequent analysis. The stages of work with the case are highlighted: problematization, discussion, consensus, aimed at the development of compensatory and pragmatic competence. An algorithm for carrying out a case on medical topics is proposed.

Authors: Chvanova Marina S. , Kiselyova Irina A. , Anuryeva Maria S.
Published: March 2021

We analyze the foreign experience of training specialists for science and high technologies on the example of leading universities in China: Hong Kong Polytechnic University (China), Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (China). We study educational programs, features of their development management in the context of innovation and promotion of advanced technologies. The novelty of the research lies in the fact that as a result of generalization of scientific and pedagogical experience, for the first time, conceptual approaches to the development of the science city university as an innovative scientific and educational platform – professional self-determination of future scholars will be identified and substantiated. As a result, conceptual ap-proaches to the successful development of science cities are identified: the university should have its own base for research, a high level of technical development; training is focused on internation-al programs, norms, requirements; student research is supervised by academic and industry ex-perts; internship and approbation in industries, the possibility of training in foreign educational in-stitutions; participation in exchange programs, mentoring, student competitions; support from federal, regional and local authorities, grant support; consolidation of large and small technology companies into clusters. The practical significance lies in the fact that technologies and methods of training young researchers for breakthrough technologies will be built on the basis of the identified conceptual approaches.

Das einkommensabhängige Elterngeld als Element einer nachhaltigen Familienpolitik
Authors: Bertram Hans , Deuflhard Carolin
Published: March 2021

A sustainable family policy acknowledges the contributions of the family to society and takes it as point of departure for the support of the family. It is characterized by a clear goal orientation and the integration of different policy measures into a comprehensive strategy. Based on this concept, the article reflects the historical evolution of family policy focusing on the question whether and to what extent a paradigm shift from compensation to active support has occurred in the interpretation of policies in the fields of infrastructure, time and money. This is essential for the historical genesis of the parental allowance, considering that the emergence of the concept of a sustainable family policy was based on this paradigm shift. By means of reconstructing the conceptual evolution and political implementation of the parental allowance since the 1970s, we argue that this political measure is the first to be integrated in such a concept. The analysis shows that even though the parental allowance is a progressive element of a sustainable family policy, the implementation of a comprehensive strategy still lacks a shift towards the life course perspective and an independent basic income for children.

Zusammenfassung

Nachhaltige Familienpolitik erkennt die Leistungen der Familie für die Gesellschaft an und nimmt sie als Ausgangspunkt für die Unterstützung der Familie. Sie zeichnet sich durch klare Zielorientierungen und die Integration der verschiedenen familienpolitischen Leistungen aus. Vor diesem Hintergrund analysiert dieser Beitrag, ob und inwiefern aus der Entwicklung der Familienpolitik ein Paradigmenwechsel im Verständnis der familienpolitischen Kernelemente Infrastruktur, Zeit und Geld von einem Nachteils- zu einem Leistungsausgleich hervorgegangen ist. Denn erst auf dieser Grundlage konnte das Konzept nachhaltiger Familienpolitik formuliert werden. Anhand der Rekonstruktion der konzeptionellen Entwicklung und politischen Durchsetzung des einkommensabhängigen Elterngeldes seit den 1970er Jahren wird aufgezeigt, dass hier zum ersten Mal eine familienpolitische Maßnahme geschaffen wurde, die in dieses Konzept eingebettet ist. Die Analyse zeigt jedoch, dass das Elterngeld zwar ein Element einer nachhaltigen Familienpolitik ist, es aber bisher weder gelungen ist, eine am Gedanken des Leistungsausgleichs orientierte finanzielle Transferpolitik zu konzipieren noch eine Lebensverlaufsorientierung umzusetzen.
„Living apart together“: Sechs Typen einer heterogenen Lebensform
Authors: Lois Nadia
Published: March 2021

Based on data of the German Family Panel (pairfam) (respondents aged 15 to 37), this study explores different types of partnerships with separate households (“living apart together”, LAT). A cluster analysis suggests that the initial classification into three types of LAT (precursor to cohabitation, work-related long-distance relationship or deliberately chosen living arrangement) has to be qualified. Among adolescents, the precursor type splits up into two subtypes, which mainly differ in the degree of commitment to the partner. Although couples in the cluster "work-related LAT" live particularly far apart, their relationship quality is somewhat higher than expected. Furthermore, a cluster of high-conflict partnerships is found. However, there is no clear evidence of LAT as a deliberately chosen arrangement. In addition to the cluster analysis, it is examined longitudinally whether the six clusters differ systematically with regard to the propensity of subsequent cohabitation and partnership dissolution, respectively.

Zusammenfassung

In dieser Studie wird mit Daten des Beziehungs- und Familienpanels (pairfam) (Befragte zwischen 15 und 37 Jahre) überprüft, in welchen Erscheinungsformen Partnerschaften mit getrennten Haushalten („living apart together“, LAT) auftreten. Die heuristische Einteilung in die Typen Vorstufe, berufsbedingte Fernbeziehung und Beziehungsideal erweist sich dabei teilweise als fruchtbar, muss jedoch nach den Ergebnissen einer Clusteranalyse weiter differenziert werden. Der vor allem bei Jugendlichen anzutreffende Vorstufen-Typ spaltet sich in zwei Unterformen, eine unverbindliche und eine stärker verfestigte Form, auf. Berufsbedingte LAT-Partnerschaften zeichnen sich erwartungsgemäß durch einen hohen Anteil von Doppelverdienerpaaren und eine überdurchschnittliche Wohnortentfernung aus, sind aber in ihrer Partnerschaftsqualität weniger eingeschränkt als erwartet. Während darüber hinaus ein Cluster von stark konfliktbehafteten LAT-Partnerschaften identifiziert werden kann, finden sich keine eindeutigen Hinweise auf die Existenz der LAT als Beziehungsideal. Im Anschluss an die Clusteranalyse wird im Längsschnitt überprüft, inwieweit sich die Wahrscheinlichkeit einer Trennung bzw. einer Haushaltsgründung zwischen den sechs LAT-Typen innerhalb von 12 Monaten unterscheidet.

Der Zusammenhang von positivem und negativem Interaktionsverhalten in der Partnerschaft mit Partnerschaftszufriedenheit und Trennungsabsichten
Authors: Nussbeck Fridtjof W. , Hilpert Peter , Bodenmann Guy
Published: March 2021

In this study, we focus on self-reported negative and positive interaction behavior and their relationship with one’s own relationship satisfaction and intention to separate, controlling for perceived stress, well-being and satisfaction with life. Our aim is to analyze if negative or positive interaction behavior is more predictive for relationship satisfaction and intention to separate. For this purpose, we examined N = 2,583 married participants. Results indicate that negative and positive behaviors predict relationship satisfaction and intention to separate beyond the prediction by control variables. Comparing two forms of positive behavior (1. dyadic coping, 2. positive interaction behavior), dyadic coping was a better predictor of relationship satisfaction than positive interaction behavior. In sum, results show the importance of positive behavior for relationship quality in a convenience sample of married subjects. Implications for counseling, therapy, and future research are discussed.

Zusammenfassung

In dieser Studie wird der Zusammenhang von selbsteingeschätztem negativem und positivem Interaktionsverhalten mit der eigenen Partnerschaftszufriedenheit und Trennungsabsichten unter Kontrolle der Einflüsse von erlebtem Stress, allgemeinem Wohlbefinden und Lebenszufriedenheit analysiert. Hauptziel ist die Prüfung der Frage, ob negatives oder positives Interaktionsverhalten prädiktiver für die Partnerschaftszufriedenheit und die Trennungsabsichten ist. Dazu wurden N = 2‘583 verheiratete Personen zu ihrer Partnerschaft befragt. Die Resultate zeigen, dass selbsteingeschätztes eigenes negatives und positives Verhalten wie erwartet über die Kontrollvariablen hinaus mit Partnerschaftszufriedenheit und Trennungsabsichten zusammenhängt. Beim Vergleich der beiden untersuchten Bestandteile des positiven Verhaltens (1. dyadisches Coping; 2. positives Interaktionsverhalten) weist das dyadische Coping stärkere Effekte auf die Partnerschaftszufriedenheit auf, als positives Interaktionsverhalten. Insgesamt belegen die Ergebnisse die Bedeutung des positiven Verhaltens in klinisch unauffälligen Partnerschaftsbeziehungen. Implikationen für die Beratung, Psychotherapie und zukünftige Forschung werden diskutiert.

Introduction to the Special Issue “Parental work and family/child well-being”
Authors: Pollmann-Schult Matthias , Li Jianghong
Published: March 2021

The "new economy" is characterized by increasing levels of nonstandard employment. A significant proportion of employees work very long hours, work with high intensity, or have long commutes to work. Also, many workers struggle to secure adequate, stable employment or good quality jobs, and work evening and night shifts or work multiple jobs in order to make ends meet. This special issue examines the consequences of the new economy for the wellbeing of family and children. The studies included in this special issue address the impact of parents’ nonstandard work schedules (shift work), long work hours, temporary employment, and long commutes to work on parental and child health and wellbeing, relationship satisfaction, work-family balance, and the division of labour.

Enhanced adoption of new cassava varieties is dependent on the ability to breed for acceptability attributes that define boiled roots and flour-based meals. This study assessed the role of pasting properties in defining farmers’ acceptability. Cassava accessions in a Triadic Comparison of Technologies (TRICOT) approach were assessed for acceptability in addition to moisture content root softness (boiled roots)and pasting properties (flour). Results showed location based differences in moisture content (13-17%) and boiled root softness (0.5-6.0 N/cm). Pasting properties such as peak viscosity (4300-5500 cP), breakdown (2204-3234 cP) and final viscosity (2953-3493) also varied significantly among accessions. Linear relationships were observed between consumer acceptance parameters and pasting properties {(final viscosity and root mealiness (r=0.7), ease of mingling (r=0.6), product stickiness (r=0.5) and overall performance of the flour based meal (r=0.6)}.Therefore pasting property analysis can differentiate cassava accessions and is an important tool in selection of consumer acceptable varieties.

Fermented milk product "Laban" in Libya is one of the most a traditional fermented milk product consumed a refreshing drink, particularly in the warm season The average values of the physicochemical including titratable acidity, pH, total solids, and fat were 0.73%, 4.16, 8.12%, and 1.54% respectively. Coliform, yeast and mold counts were 21×10⁴, 39×10⁴, and 41 ×10³ cfu/ ml., respectively. Most strains of coliform bacteria were Serratia odorifera, Escherichia coli 1, E. coli 2. and Klebsiella oxytoca. The average Lactococcus, Streptococcus, Mesophilic Lactobacillus / Leuconostoc and Thermophilic Lactobacillus counts were 99 ×10⁷, 96 ×10⁷, 93 ×10⁷ and 15 ×10⁷ cfu / ml. respectively. A total of 142 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolates were identified to the genus level as Lactobacillus (48.59%), Lactococcus (43.66%), Streptococcus (4.93%) and Leuconostoc (2.82%). Sugar fermentation tests revealed the most frequent Lactobacillus species found to be Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. lactis (62.32%), followed by Lactobacillus plantarum (31.88%). Furthermore, other selected LAB isolates were identified by API 50 CH test as Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactics, Lactobacillus pentosus, Lactobacillus brevis, and Leuconostoc mesenteroides ssp. cremoris. Thus, our research documented the lactic acid bacteria strains and will provides fundamental basic and useful information for further studies of strain selection starter culture, with regard to the industrial production of fermented dairy milk products.

Islamic Spiritual Deconstruction: Kanjeng Ratu Kidul Myth in Kiai Ibnu Hajar’s View
Authors: Suwito S. , Ulyan Mohammad , Novianti Ida , Muflihah M.
Published: March 2021

This article aims to study and analyze the Islamic spiritual sides of the deconstruction in Kanjeng Ratu Kidul belief from the perspective of Kiai Ibnu Hajar. Kanjeng Ratu Kidul is a very popular myth among people in the southern part of Java Island. Most of them hold annual ceremonies as a way to express their request for having the blessing and being avoided from disasters. The data of this research were collected through in-depth interviews and participatory observations. Derrida’s deconstruction theory was applied to analyze the spirituality aspects. There are three deconstruction processes: (1) logocentric identification; (2) internal contradiction return; (3) difference or building new construction. This research found that Kiai Ibnu Hajar’s deconstruction spirituality was performed in three stages: (1) visual identification stage, which is done through eliciting the discourse of Kanjeng Ratu Kidul by her pictures or photos; (2) returning stage, which is done through mind-verbal activities, i.e. by understanding the nature and existence of human being through religious teachings and informal chats; (3) building new concept, which is actualized through the use of new terms among the members of Jamaah Aolia Panggang Mosque.
First record of late Campanian paleoceanographic and paleoclimatic changes, Arabian Platform, Mazidag-Mardin area, SE Turkey

Published: March 2021

The sedimentology, geochemistry and paleontology of the pelagic upper Campanian Maastrichtian Bozova Formation in the "Mazidag" (Mazıdağı) - Mardin area, SE Turkey, reveal paleoceanographic and paleoecological changes for the first time. A 119.25 m-thick composite stratigraphic section is characterized by alternating marls, clayey limestones, shales, and black shales; no coarse siliciclastic admixture or turbidite intercalations were recorded in the section. Biostratigraphic data indicate the presence of the Radotruncana calcarata Zone, and the UC15de/UC16 nannofossil zones. Stable isotope and elemental geochemical analyses have been carried out in the studied section. The isotope curves display similar patterns compared to reference curves from European and Chinese basins in the same interval. The prominent negative carbon isotope excursion determined in the upper interval can be correlated with the Late Campanian Event. Proxy elements display generally two relative rising trends in productivity from the lower part and the middle part of the succession. The lower part of the section records relatively more dysoxic/anoxic conditions and coincides with common black shale beds. The presence of both diverse planktonic foraminifera and calcareous nannofossils in the studied interval indicates a fully marine, warm-water, low-latitude Tethysian oceanic environment. In addition, the plant fossils derived from the nearby land mass indicate that a tropical humid climate was similar to that in northeast Australia. Therefore, warm water, tropical humid atmospheric conditions developed in the studied area causing the rise in productivity, precipitation and transportation of plant debris into offshore environments.
Jurassian brachiopods of the Valanginian - Hauterivian interval. Their contribution to the dating of the Salima Formation in Mount Lebanon

Les gisements jurassiens français ou suisses du Crétacé basal (Valanginien ou Hauterivien) recèlent de nombreuses espèces de brachiopodes parmi lesquelles 3 espèces inconnues au Liban : Lamellaerhynchia desori (Loriol in Pictet & Campiche, 1872), Sulcirhynchia valangiensis (Loriol, 1864) et Terebratulina arzierensis (Loriol, 1864). Le site fossilifère de la Formation de Salima à Zeghrine, une localité proche de Bikfaya (Mont Liban), recèle une association constituée de Belothyris pseudojurensis (Leymerie, 1842), Lamellaerhynchia hauteriviensis Burri, 1953, Loriolithyris valdensis (Loriol, 1868), Lor. latifrons (Pictet, 1872), Sellithyris carteroniana (Orbigny, 1847) et Terebratulina biauriculata Orbigny, 1850, toutes également présentes dans les localités jurassiennes. Sur la base de l'étude de son association de brachiopodes, la Formation de Salima est par conséquent attribuée au Valanginien indifférencié. [The Jurassian French or Swiss outcrops of the lowermost Cretaceous (Valanginian or Hauterivian) yield numerous brachiopod species including 3 species: Lamellaerhynchia desori (Loriol in Pictet & Campiche, 1872), Sulcirhynchia valangiensis (Loriol, 1864), and Terebratulina arzierensis (Loriol, 1864), which are not found in Lebanon. The fossiliferous site of the Salima Formation at Zeghrine, a locality close to Bikfaya (Mount Lebanon), yields an assemblage made of Belothyris pseudojurensis (Leymerie, 1842), Lamellaerhynchia hauteriviensis Burri, 1953, Loriolithyris valdensis (Loriol, 1868), Lor. latifrons (Pictet, 1872), Sellithyris carteroniana (Orbigny, 1847), and Terebratulina biauriculata Orbigny, 1850; all are also present in Jurassian localities. On the basis of the study of its brachiopod assemblage, the Salima Formation is therefore ascribed an undifferentiated Valanginian age.]

This study follows on from previous research on the “ancien time régime” (to around 1800) by R. Koselleck and A. Assmann. It examines representations of eternity in exempla, legends and other texts. The basic motif of these texts is the break with the time, i.e. the situation where the mortal man enters a different time regime (such as paradise) and spents there a seemingly a short time, while, in fact, hundreds of years have passed. The study describes the basic types of these tales (song of the bird, wedding, vision, etc.) and analyses their common motifs.

Pesantren Hasan Munadi yang terletak di desa Karangan, Badegan, Ponorogo sedari awal memang didirikan untuk mencetak kader-kader muslim yang menghafalkan Alquran. Seiring dengan perkembangan pendidikan Pesantren Hasan Munadi mulai mendirikan yayasan dengan nama yang sama kemudian melebarkan sayapnya kepada pendidikan formal. Mulai dari taman kanak-kanak, madrasah ibtidaiyyah, madrasah tsanawiyyah, hingga madrasah aliyah. Namun, amat disayangkan, pengembangan kepada pendidikan formal ini sedikit melupakan ‘fitrah’ awal berdirinya pesantren. Hal ini dikarenakan kesulitan yang dialami para guru dalam implementasi kurikulum hafalan Alquran dan sumber daya manusia yang khusus berkecimpung dalam hafalan Alquran masih sedikit. Berangkat dari aset para alumni pesantren sekaligus para guru yang berbekal kemampuan baca Alquran yang mumpuni pelatihan manajemen madrasah dan pengelolaan kelas di pondok pesantren tahfidzul quran ini layak untuk dilaksanakan. Pasca pelatihan tersebtu dilaksanakan, antusiasme para guru dan para pimpinan luar biasa. Tidak ada kursi kosong, sekaligus mereka dengan semangat mengikuti pelatihan dari awal hingga akhir. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan kemampuan para peserta meningkat. Dan, tentu akan diperlukan evaluasi dan pendampingan yang menyeluruh secara berkelanjutan kemudian hari.

Published: March 2021

BackgroundManaging older people in the emergency department remains a challenge. We aimed to identify the factors influencing the care quality of older patients in the emergency department, in order to fine-tune future interventions for older people, taking into account the naturalistic context of the ED.Methods. This is a qualitative study of some 450 hours of observations performed in three emergency departments selected for their diverse contexts. We performed seventy observations of older patient trajectories admitted to the emergency department. Themes were extracted from the material using an inductive reasoning approach, to highlight factors positively or negatively influencing management of patient’s trajectories, in particular those presenting with typically geriatric syndromes.Results Four themes emerged: no geriatric flow routine; risk of discontinuity of care; unmet basic needs and patient-centered care; complex older patients: unwelcome in EDs? ConclusionsThe overall process of care was based on an organ- and flow-centered paradigm, which ignored older people’s specific needs and exposed them to discontinuity of care. Their basic needs were neglected and, when their management slowed the emergency department flow, older people were perceived as unwelcome. Findings of our study can inform the development of interventions about the influence of context and organizational factors.

Objective: The aim of this study is to prospectively analyze the clinical effect of an individualized bone cement prosthetic replacement in treating advanced lunate bone necrosis. Methods: Since 2006, a total of 19 Lichtman stage III and IV aseptic lunate bone necrosis patients with a wrist height ratio ≥0.5 were included, the last visit time was three years after operation. The statistically significant differences in range of motion, (Visual Analogue Scale/Score, VAS) score, Cooney score, grasp force, wrist height ratio (to the capitate bone), and radio scaphoid angle of the affected wrist joint were observed before the operation and at the last visit (p<0.05). Results: There were no statistically significant differences in the axial line and maximum diameter of the lunate bone between the healthy side and the affected side (p>0.05). Conclusion: The surgical method can restore the original anatomic structure of wrist joint, play an important role in recovering the movement function of wrist joint, and has a significant effect on wrist pain and few complications.
Climate Change Induced Shocks, Consequent Impacts, Vulnerability and Farmers Endeavor to Adapt in Northern Highland: Implication for Designing Household and Community Level Strategies

Published: March 2021

BackgroundDespite future emissions, the world is already exposed to further warming, largely due to past emissions. If global society continues to emit greenhouse gases at current rates, the average global temperature could rise in alarming rate. The consequent shocks such as heat waves, sea level rises, storms, cyclones, flooding and droughts, which currently hit hard are also expected to be more severe and more frequent in the future across the globe. Its impacts will be very devastating to livelihoods of the world in general and farming community in particular. Therefore, adaptation appears as the best mechanisms to dampen vulnerability and increase capacity to resist to climate change.MethodologyMixed research approach i.e., qualitative and quantitative methods along with phenomenological design were used. While sample districts, elder farmers for focus group discussions and experts and development agents for intensive interviews were selected purposively, Kebeles and household heads for survey data selected using proportionate random sampling procedures. Quantitative data collected using semi-structured questionnaire were analysed using descriptive methods and index (Principal Component Analysis). Whereas, qualitative data collected using discussion and interview guiding checklists were transcribed, coded, organized with resembles and analysed thematically. Major findings & ConclusionIncrease in temperature, change in rainfall including shift in raining periods, shortage and variability of rain, frequent occurrence of drought, crop pests and animal disease were major branded climate change induced shocks in the area. Land degradation, low productivity of crop and animal production caused due to loss of soil fertility, crop pests, scarcity of pasture and water, and animal disease were the key consequent impacts of climate change induced shocks affected the livelihood. Vulnerability of farmers was very high. To reduce their vulnerability farmers employed many strategies: soil and water resource conservation practices, collecting hay, use of improved seed, fertilizer, pesticides and insecticides even if its use were very poor due to lack of finance. Farmers were at the edge of survival due to interconnected impacts.RecommendationsTherefore, government policies should emphasis on the provision of local context based farming technology packages, strengthening of watershed management practices and development and provision of well-coordinated early warning systems.

Background: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a chronic gastrointestinal disorder characterized by abdominal pain, diarrhea or constipation, and changes in defecation patterns. No organic disease has been found to explain these symptoms by routine clinical examination. This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture therapy for IBS patients based on conventional treatments. We also want to explore the optimal acupoint combination recommended for IBS and clarify the clinical advantage of "multi-acupoint co-effect and synergistic effect".Methods and analysis: A total of 204 eligible patients who meet the Rome IV criteria for IBS will be randomly allocated to receive different acupuncture. Each patient will receive 12 acupuncture treatments over four weeks and will be followed up for four weeks. The primary outcome is the IBS-symptom severity score (IBS-SSS). The secondary outcomes include the Bristol stool form scale(BSFS), the work and social adjustment score (WSAS), the IBS-quality of life (IBS-QOL), self-rating anxiety scale (SAS), and the self-rating depression scale (SDS). Both the primary outcome and the secondary outcomes measures are collected at baseline, 2 weeks, and 4 weeks of the intervention, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks after the intervention.Ethics and dissemination: The entire project has been approved by the ethics committee of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine ( 2020BZYLL0903 ) .Discussion: This is a multicenter randomized controlled trial for IBS in China. This may shed light on the efficacy of acupuncture as an alternative to IBS. The results of the trial will be disseminated in peer-reviewed publications.

After the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic took hold in the UK the ActWELL trial team’s plans to present the trial results to participants and other stakeholders had to change. Instead of face-face events, three online events were planned and hosted successfully. In this article we describe the choices made in planning and organisation of the online events including things we would do differently if we were to do it again. We think that online events are a useful platform when informing participants and other stakeholders of the results of your trial, even beyond the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and we hope this article can help other trial teams to plan their own online events.
Exploring the Association and Dissociation Between Lectures and Practicums in the Process of Learning Experience in Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing Education: a Qualitative Study in Japan
Authors: Odachi Ryo , Yada Hironori , Adachi Keiichiro
Published: March 2021

Objective: This study aimed to clarify the process of students’ experience of learning to identify association and dissociation between lectures and practicums in psychiatric and mental health nursing (PMHN) education at a university.Methods: An interview survey of 21 students from a regional national university in Japan was conducted, and the interview data were analyzed with a modified grounded theory approach.Results: The analysis identified 12 categories and 32 concepts regarding the process of learning experience in PMHN among university nursing students. Through lectures, the students accomplished “self-developmental knowledge retention” or “acquisition of superficial knowledge about PMHN” toward “formation of learning attitude based on life experience.” The outcomes of lectures significantly affected practicums; the former possibly resulted in “non-discovery of significance of practicums;” however, the latter possibly approached “developmental self-learning.”Discussion: The association between students’ interests based on life experience and contents of lectures affected practicums, and the lecture design readily imaginable from students’ experience was desirable. Practicums must be built on teaching strategies that make students aware of the particularity of communication.

Purpose: Subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) and its related rotator cuff tears are the most important cause of shoulder joint pain, which has recently received greater attention. Arthroscopy is a safe, effective, and minimally invasive procedure for the treatment of stage Ⅱ or Ⅲ SIS. Previous studies have reported that little blood loss usually occurs during this procedure. However, significant perioperative hidden blood loss (HBL) is often overlooked. In this respect, we herein aimed to investigate the amount of HBL and identify its possible risk factors.Methods: We enrolled 59 patients with SIS who received shoulder arthroscopy between December 2019 and June 2020 in this study. The clinical data recorded included the height of patients, weight pre- and postoperative hematocrit (Hct), which were used to calculate HBL using Gross’s formula. We analyzed the risk factors, including sex, age, BMI (body mass index), stage of SIS, diabetes, hypertension, and operative time using multivariate linear regression analysis.Results: Our results revealed that the mean of HBL was 341.4 ± 214.9 mL, while that of the postoperative Hb loss was 13.3 ± 8.0 g/L. The incidence of postoperative anemia was significantly associated with HBL (χ2 = 14.496, P < 0.001). Furthermore, multivariate linear regression analysis demonstrated that all seven factors, including gender (P = 0.698), age (P = 0.553), BMI (P = 0.854), stage of SIS (P = 0.906), diabetes (P = 0.984), hypertension (P = 0.532), and operative time (P = 0.645), were not significantly associated with HBL. Conclusion: Findings from this study show that postoperative HBL following shoulder arthroscopy was significant, which can aggravate anemia or lead to secondary anemia, thus should not be neglected.

Background: Because of low sensitivity and specificity of the currently available urine markers for bladder cancer (BC) detection and painful cystoscopy procedure, our study was aimed to evaluate expression of urinary exosomal microRNA (miR)-96 and miR-183 as probable noninvasive and accurate biomarkers for the diagnosis and follow up of BC. Methods and results: Using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction; Expression of exosomal miR-96 and miR- 183 in the urine samples of 51 patients with BC, 21 patients with benign urinary bladder lesions and in 24 normal individuals as control group. Our study results showed higher expressions of both miR-96 and miR-183 in urine of BC patients in comparison with control group (P <0.001 for each). Analysis of receiver-operating characteristic curve demonstrated that each microRNA had good sensitivity and specificity for differentiating BC patients from non-BC patients (miR-96; 80.4% and 91.8%; and miR-183, 78.4% and 81.6% respectively) compared to cytology (37.3% and 100%). In addition, it was obvious that the sensitivity and specificity of combined miR-96 and miR-183 for the diagnosis of BC reached 88.2%% and 87.8%, respectively, which were higher than each one alone. We also found that expression of miR-96 and miR-183 with lymph node invasion, advancing grade, and pathological stage was significantly increased. After surgery, collected urine samples showed significantly lower expression of microRNA (miR-96: P < 0.001; and miR-183, P = 0.002). Conclusion: In conclusion, miR-96 and miR-183 in urine are promising diagnostic tumor markers for BC; particularly, when they combined with each other or with urinary cytology.

Metabolic pattern reconstruction is an important element in tumor progression. The metabolism of tumor cells is characterized by the abnormal increase of anaerobic glycolysis, regardless of the higher oxygen concentration, resulting in a large accumulation of energy from glucose sources, and contributes to rapid cell proliferation and tumor growth which is further referenced as the Warburg effect. We tried to reconstruct the metabolic pattern in the progression of cancer to screen which genetic changes are specific in cancer cells. A total of 12 common types of solid tumors were enrolled in the prospective study. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was implemented to analyze 9 glycolysis-related gene sets, which are closely related to the glycolysis process. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to identify independent prognostic variables for the construction of a nomogram based on clinicopathological characteristics and a glycolysis-related gene prognostic index (GRGPI). The prognostic model based on glycolysis genes has the highest area under the curve (AUC) in LIHC (Liver hepatocellular carcinoma). 8-gene signatures (AURKA, CDK1, CENPA, DEPDC1, HMMR, KIF20A, PFKFB4, STMN1) were related to overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS). Further analysis demonstrates that the prediction model can accurately distinguish between high- and low-risk cancer patients among patients in different clusters in LIHC. A nomogram with a well-fitted calibration curve based on gene expression profiles and clinical characteristics improves discrimination in internal and external cohorts. Furthermore, the altering expression of metabolic genes related to glycolysis may contribute to the reconstruction of the tumor-related microenvironment.
