BACKGROUND: The Hospital to Home Outcomes (H2O) trial was a 2-arm, randomized controlled trial that assessed the effects of a nurse home visit after a pediatric hospital discharge. Children randomized to the intervention had higher 30-day postdischarge reutilization rates compared with those with standard discharge. We sought to understand perspectives on why postdischarge home nurse visits resulted in higher reutilization rates and to elicit suggestions on how to improve future interventions.
METHODS: We sought qualitative input using focus groups and interviews from stakeholder groups: parents, primary care physicians (PCP), hospital medicine physicians, and home care registered nurses (RNs). A multidisciplinary team coded and analyzed transcripts using an inductive, iterative approach.
RESULTS: Thirty-three parents participated in interviews. Three focus groups were completed with PCPs (n = 7), 2 with hospital medicine physicians (n = 12), and 2 with RNs (n = 10). Major themes in the explanation of increased reutilization included: appropriateness of patient reutilization; impact of red flags/warning sign instructions on family’s reutilization decisions; hospital-affiliated RNs “directing traffic” back to hospital; and home visit RNs had a low threshold for escalating care. Major themes for improving design of the intervention included: need for improved postdischarge communication; individualizing home visits—one size does not fit all; and providing context and framing of red flags.
CONCLUSION: Stakeholders questioned whether hospital reutilization was appropriate and whether the intervention unintentionally directed patients back to the hospital. Future interventions could individualize the visit to specific needs or diagnoses, enhance postdischarge communication, and better connect patients and home nurses to primary care.
Two-Year Experience of 14 French Pigtail Catheters Placed by Procedure-Focused Hospitalists
Authors: Puetz Joseph , Segon Ankur , Umpierrez Adrian
Published: March 2020

BACKGROUND: Recent studies show small-bore chest tubes, commonly 14 French pigtail catheters (PCs), are noninferior to large-bore chest tubes for treating various conditions, and they are associated with better patient comfort. The Medical College of Wisconsin implemented a bedside procedure service (BPS) that has been trained in the placement of PCs as an adjunct to its interventional radiology department.
METHODS: The data regarding consults for PC placement was collected by the BPS over a 2-year period. Primary outcomes reviewed were insertion-related complications (IRCs), unsuccessful attempts (UAs), and adverse outcomes (AOs) because the authors believe these represent the safety and effectiveness of the group. It was determined which services consulted the BPS for PC placement, the indications for consults, and a brief review of declined PC consults.
RESULTS: Of the 124 accepted consults, the service had 3 IRCs (2.4%), 2 UAs (1.6%), and 3 AOs (2.4%). A total of 18 consults were declined. The BPS was consulted by 12 services with 8 primary reasons for PC placement.
CONCLUSIONS: At high-volume, tertiary care centers, and with the support of cardiothoracic surgical and interventional radiology services, procedure-focused hospitalists can safely serve as an adjunct service for PC placement in selected hospitalized patients.
Effect of Santolina pectinata (Lag.) Essential Oil to protect against the corrosion of Mild steel in 1.0 M HCl: Experimental and quantum chemical studies
Authors: Manssouri Mounir , Laghchimi Amal , Ansari Abdeslam , Znini Mohamed , Lakbaibi Zouhair , El Ouadi Yassir , Majidi Lhou
Published: March 2020

The essential oil of Santolina pectinata aerial parts (SP oil) was extracted by hydrodistillation and analyzed by Gas Chromatography (GC) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS). 34 components were identified, accounting 59.4% of the total oil, which (Z)-heptadeca-10,16-dien-7-one (ZHD) was the major component with 28 % of the oil. The protective effect of this oil on the corrosion of mild steel (MS) in 1M HCl solution was tested by the measurements of Weight loss (WL), potentiodynamic polarization (PDP), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). From WL measurements, the inhibiting effect was raised with the increasing of both concentration inhibitor and temperature. PDP curves led to a mixed-type inhibitor. The charge transfer process mainly controls the results of EIS measurements. The SP oil adsorption not only was discovered to obey Langmuir isotherm but showed a chemical interaction as well. The computational methods such as density functional theory (DFT), Monte Carlo (MC) and radial distribution function (RDF) simulations were also performed to analyze the possible contribution of (Z)-heptadeca-10,16-dien-7-one (ZHD) to the corrosion prevention effect of global oil.

The optimum pH and temperature of protease from RS1 isolate were 10 and 45℃, respectively.  Ion Mg3+ increased RS1 protease whereas ion of Na+, K+, Fe2+, and Zn2+ inhibited protease from RS1 isolate. Study on the effect of metals ion indicated that protease from RS1 isolate was metaloenzyme. Based analysis on SDS-PAGE, the molecular weight of RS1 protease had 12 bands with molecular weights ranging from 34.75 kDa to 263.53 kDa.
A comparative ethnographic study of collective knowledge brokering across the syntactic, semantic and pragmatic knowledge boundaries in applied health research
Authors: Waring Justin , Clarke Jenelle , Vickers Rob
Published: March 2020

Background

Knowledge brokers facilitate the creation, sharing and use of knowledge among different research, policy and practice communities. This paper examines the way collective knowledge brokering can address the syntactic, semantic and pragmatic boundaries that separate research and practice communities.

Methods

A comparative ethnographic study of three applied health research projects, each researching the implementation of clinical interventions into healthcare practice. Data was collected through in-depth non-participant observations, semi-structured interviews and documentary analysis with each project team and associated practice stakeholder communities.

Findings

The study describes how ‘core’ project teams and ‘peripheral’ stakeholder groups can be differentiated as relatively bounded epistemic communities. It also identifies both ‘designated’ and ‘non-designated’ knowledge brokers as working within and between these communities. Through comparing the life cycles of these projects, the study identifies the individual and collective brokering activities involved in sharing knowledge among these communities.

Discussion

The study reaffirms the idea that it is challenging for a single broker to undertake all brokering tasks, and that knowledge sharing is achieved through sequential and parallel forms of collective knowledge brokering. Furthermore, different brokering strategies are needed to address the syntactic, semantic and pragmatic boundaries that separate epistemic communities. The paper proposes a maturity model of collective knowledge brokering.
Biblioteques i eficiència : adaptació de l''indicador de la potència del sistema de la metodologia Secaba-Rank per a noves necessitats.
Authors: Lázaro Rodríguez Pedro , López Gijón Javier , Herrera Viedma Enrique
Published: March 2020

Objective: This study has two objectives. The first is to create a new configuration for the System Potency indicator from the Secaba-Rank methodology, which includes measures related to the budget, loans, visits, Internet use and attendance at cultural activities in libraries. The results are then used to obtain information on the efficiency of Spanish public libraries. The second objective is to compare and analyse the results of the ranks based on the new measures of the System Potency indicator. The overall aim is to assess the measurement of the efficiency of libraries in the context of a changing society. Methodology: With regard to the first objective, the method is the adaptation of the System Potency indicator of the Secaba-Rank methodology. This indicator, which has been previously used to analyse efficiency in both Spanish public and university libraries, reports libraries’ outputs and inputs and obtains information on their efficiency. The new System Potency indicator takes into account activities of libraries such as loans, visits, Internet use and attendance at cultural activities. The comparison between the ranks generated for each dimension and the rank based on the total System Potency indicator is carried out by calculating the Spearman's rho correlation coefficient.
Results: The results show that the Secaba-Rank methodology is suitable for studying the efficiency of libraries according to their current role, especially in the analyses comparing loans and visits; Internet use and total efficiency; and attendance at cultural activities and total efficiency. Finally, the results for total efficiency (considering the relationship between the budget and loans, visits, use of the Internet and the attendance at cultural activities), indicate that four systems in Spain were inefficient (Catalonia, Valencia, Andalusia and the Basque Country), while the rest were efficient.
Information content of absorption spectra and implications for ocean color inversion
Authors: Cael B. B. , Chase Alison , Boss Emmanuel
Published: March 2020

The increasing use of hyperspectral optical data in oceanography, both in situ and via remote sensing, holds the potential to significantly advance characterization of marine ecology and biogeochemistry because, in principle, hyperspectral data can provide much more detailed inferences of ecosystem properties via inversion. Effective inferences, however, require careful consideration of the close similarity of different signals of interest, and how these interplay with measurement error and uncertainty to reduce the degrees of freedom (DoF) of hyperspectral measurements. Here we discuss complementary approaches to quantify the DoF in hyperspectral measurements in the case of in situ particulate absorption measurements, though these approaches can also be used on other such data, e.g., ocean color remote sensing. Analyses suggest intermediate (

∼

) DoF for our dataset of global hyperspectral particulate absorption spectra from the Tara Oceans expedition, meaning that these data can yield coarse community structure information. Empirically, chlorophyll is an effective first-order predictor of absorption spectra, meaning that error characteristics and the mathematics of inversion need to be carefully considered for hyperspectral data to provide information beyond that which chlorophyll provides. We also discuss other useful analytical tools that can be applied to this problem and place our results in the context of hyperspectral remote sensing.
Physics-informed neural networks for inverse problems in nano-optics and metamaterials
Authors: Chen Yuyao , Lu Lu , Karniadakis George Em , Dal Negro Luca
Published: March 2020

In this paper, we employ the emerging paradigm of physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) for the solution of representative inverse scattering problems in photonic metamaterials and nano-optics technologies. In particular, we successfully apply mesh-free PINNs to the difficult task of retrieving the effective permittivity parameters of a number of finite-size scattering systems that involve many interacting nanostructures as well as multi-component nanoparticles. Our methodology is fully validated by numerical simulations based on the finite element method (FEM). The development of physics-informed deep learning techniques for inverse scattering can enable the design of novel functional nanostructures and significantly broaden the design space of metamaterials by naturally accounting for radiation and finite-size effects beyond the limitations of traditional effective medium theories.
Three-dimensional interferometric scattering microscopy via remote focusing technique
Authors: Lee Il-Buem , Moon Hyeon-Min , Park Jin-Sung , Zambochova Katerina , Hong Seok-Cheol , Cho Minhaeng
Published: March 2020

Interferometric scattering (iSCAT) microscopy enables us to track nm-sized objects with high spatial and temporal resolutions and permits label-free imaging of biomolecules. Its superb sensitivity, however, comes at a cost by several downsides, such as slow three-dimensional imaging and limited vertical tracking. Here, we propose a new method, Remote Focusing-iSCAT (RF-iSCAT) microscopy, to visualize a volume specimen by imaging sections at different depths without translation of either the objective lens or sample stage. We demonstrate the principle of RF-iSCAT by determining the

z

-position of submicrometer beads by translating the reference mirror instead. RF-iSCAT features an unprecedentedly long range of vertical tracking and permits fast but vibration-free vertical scanning. We anticipate that RF-iSCAT would enhance the utility of iSCAT for dynamics study.

Authors: Pardede Berlin Pandapotan , Agil Muhammad , Supriatna Iman
Published: March 2020

Fertility is the most important aspect in the efforts to increase livestock populations. Protamine and various proteins in sperm and seminal plasma are the results of the molecular analysis which can be used as a marker of fertility. Each of the proteins plays an important role in the normal function of sperm, starting from the formation of sperm structure, motility, capacitation, cell protection, acrosome reactions, successful fertilization, egg activation, and embryonic development. Finally, these molecular components can be a marker of fertility and can help to diagnose the cases of infertility/subfertility in livestock in the field.
MICRO-MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF CEMENT AND SLAG COMPOSITES MEASURED BY NANOINDENTATION
Authors: Němeček Jiří , Němeček Jiří
Published: March 2020

In this study, the micromechanical response of two cementitious composites was characterized by nanoindentation. Pure Portland cement paste and Portland cement with 50 vol. % replaced with granulated blast furnace slag (GBFS) paste were investigated at the age of 28 days. Grid nanoindentation, statistical deconvolution and scanning electron microscopy were used to characterize the main hydration products. Several grids with approximately 500 indents on each sample were performed to obtain modulus of elasticity, hardness and creep indentation parameter. Similar mechanical phases containing calcium silica hydrate, crystalline calcium hydroxide and un-hydrated clinker were found in both samples varying by volume fraction. Blended cement, moreover, contains a phase of slag hydration products with a significantly lower modulus of elasticity. This phase with a high portion of unreacted GBFS is mostly responsible for the difference of mechanical properties of the whole composite.
LOCALIZATION ANALYSIS OF AN ORTHOTROPIC MULTI-SURFACE PLASTICITY MODEL UNDER UNIAXIAL STRESS
Authors: Pagani Claudio , Jirásek Milan , Horák Martin
Published: March 2020

Numerical simulations of masonry structures are often based on continuum macromodelling approaches that need constitutive laws able to phenomenologically reproduce the behavior of the material. To capture the deformation process up to failure, appropriate softening laws are needed to take into account the contraction of the yield stress domain caused by cracking and crushing. It is well known that softening may lead to localization of inelastic strain. This paper focuses on localization analysis of an orthotropic macro-scale model in the framework of multi-surface plasticity, which describes the in-plane behavior of masonry structures. Preliminary results reported in this short paper are limited to uniaxial stress states. Analytical localization conditions are first derived for uniaxial stress states with principal axes aligned with the material axes of orthotropy. Then, localization analysis is extended to an arbitrary angle between the principal stress axes and the axes of orthotropy.

Authors: Dallas Ioannis , Ntoumanis Ioannis , Karatza Francesca , Ch. Makris Georgios
Published: March 2020

In the present work, data analysis of Erasmus+ Sport programs was performed using Network Theory. Funding amounts and partner coun-tries per program are the information of the target data. Developing a Python-based program, a network of countries' partnerships has been developed to examine whether specific countries cooperate more frequently, and which countries participate in more Erasmus+ Sport pro-grams. Thus, some basic indicators of centrality from network theory were calculated, which are presented together with their mathematical interpretation.It has also been studied whether the number of a country's participation in these programs is affected by its economic or social national characteristics. Specifically, GDP, happiness and education indexes are all examined if they affect a country's participation. Finally, given how the funding amount of a program is split between the partner countries, the total amount of funding received by each country for the period 2014-2018 was calculated.Â Â
KEPALSUAN HIDUP DALAM HIPERREALITAS IKLAN
Authors: Haryono Cosmas Gatot
Published: March 2020

Kapitalis (melalui iklan) memanfaatkan kondisi manusia yang terjebak dalam kehidupan yang dipenuhi dengan simulasi untuk mencapai keuntungan  mereka. Di era modern ini, manusia telah terjerembab dalam ruang simulakra dan kehidupan hiperealis untuk kepentingan perluasan penetrasi produk mereka. Situasi ini  dimanfaatkan sebagai sarana untuk memberikan fantasi-fantasi ataupun simulasi-simulasi lain sehingga  menyebabkan manusia tidak bisa lagi membedakan mana yang asli dari yang palsu, yang real dari yang virtual, yang nyata dari fantasi.Peneliti ini didasarkan pada pandangan Jean P. Baudrillard  yang melihat dunia manusia saat ini merupakan suatu dunia simulacra  dipenuhi dengan simulasi dan memmbentuk kehidupan yang hiperrealitas. Media massa (terutama melalui iklan dan film) mempunyai peranan yang sangat besar dalam meciptakan dunia simulacra ini. Faktanya film dan iklan menyuguhkan  begitu banyak kehidupan hiperrealis kepada audiensnya.  Peneliti sangat tertarik untuk mengkaji permasalahan ini dan menggunakan menggunakan analisis naratif Todorovuntuk membongkar iklan komersial Ramayana Departement Store episode #DisneyHakSegalaBangsa yang peneliti pilih sebagai obyek penelitian.Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa manusia tidak bisa dilepaskan dari lingkaran kepalsuan yang  digambarkan sebagai  “sebuah lingkaran setan kehidupan” karena pada waktunya siapapun korban dari kepalsuan juga akan melakukan hal yang sama kepada yang lainnya.  Melalui iklan ini, Ramayana-lah menggambarkan dirinya sendiri sebagai sumber keaslian yang sebenarnya, dimana kegembiraan dan semua impian akan terwujud. Ramayana hendak menggiring pola konsumsi masyarakat Indonesia agar tetap berada dalam keadaan, dimana mereka terjebak pada komsumsi yang salah kaprah dan menjadi semakin terjerembab dalam pola konsumsi yang kehilangan esensi karena hanya melihat  eksistensi dan citra dirinya.
MENGAJUKAN ANALISIS KELAS SOSIAL DALAM MEMBACA IKLAN
Authors: Mutahir Arizal
Published: March 2020

Many studies on advertising in Indonesia have been conducted. The discussions are mostly about the influence of advertising on consumers. However, such studies often slip into a deterministic understanding. Actions are understood as behaviors merely influenced by external factors. The study of advertising deals with the relationship between the subject's intentions, actions, and the meanings contained in the advertisement. Thus, it not only discusses the influence of advertising on consumption behavior, but also requires a study of representation in advertising. Unfortunately, some studies of advertising representation have not touched the theme of the representation of social classes, as if advertisements don't talk about social classes explicitly. The absence of social class analysis in advertisement study tends to disguise the actual conditions of the society. Using the method of semiotic analysis to read advertisements on television as the subject of the study, this paper aims to show that images of social class are still present in advertisements. This paper finds that social class images in advertisements are stereotyped. The lower social class is described as a social class that is dominated and is doing a class-passing. Based on the findings, this paper argues that the analysis of social classes is still required to examine any forms of popular culture such as advertising and, at the same time, can show the actual conditions of social classes in the society.

Authors: Anam Moh Khoirul , Nurhayati Nurhayati
Published: March 2020

Recent campaign models tend to change from the traditional model which commonly happened in the past. If in the past the campaign was identical to speeches, flags, marches, etc., nowadays the campaign can be done by utilizing the digital world as a media, even though the old model is still used today in a fewer portion. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the digital campaign advertisement of Gus Ipul in East Java Election 2018. Using the Systemic Functional Grammar (SFG) theory and Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) approach of Fairclough three-dimensional model, researchers want to reveal what message is behind the advertisements. The data in this study are five political campaign videos obtained from online video service providers, www.youtube.com. The videos are downloaded, then transcribed so that the textual data is obtained. These data are analyzed using the SFG theory. From the analysis, the results of the present study show that Gus Ipul’s political advertising is included in advocacy and contrasting advertising. Also, there are two objectives of Gus Ipul's political advertising. The first is to satire political opponents, and the second is to provide information. The information conveyed is by providing positive information, namely by using the lexicon like pengalaman - experience, paham - understanding and amanah -trustworthiness. From the political advertisement model, it can also be obtained that there are four strategies used in advertising viz emphasizing our good things, emphasizing their bad things, de-emphasizing our bad things, and de-emphasizing their good things.
NARATIVE ANALYSIS OF CAMPAIGN OF PERSIJA PLAYERS ON THE VIDEO #JAGAGBK
Authors: Pratiwi Aprilianti - , Kaligis Retor A.W. , Anshari Fardihian -
Published: March 2020

The purpose of this study is to analyze the campaign narrative delivered by Persija players on the #JagaGBK video in an effort to compile the position of Jakmania in order to maintain SUGBK. The method used in this study is qualitative analysis with narrative analysis. The theory is the Narrative Paradigm theory. The results showed that the #JagaGBK video was in accordance with the three basic concepts of the Narrative Paradigm theory: coherence, truth and good reason. Persuasive campaigns carried out are relevant to the target audience because the message was conveyed by Persija players who were very familiar with Jakmania. It takes synergy between the elements of communicators, messages, communicants and the media used to conduct persuasive campaigns. If one element does not synergize with other elements, then the campaign carried out is ineffective and far from expectations. Based on the elements of the persuasive campaign, #JagaGBK video communicators are on two levels, namely the level of ideas or initiators and messengers. As the initiator of the idea was Persija management and Jakmania Chairman, while the courier was seven Persija players. The target audience for this campaign is Jakmania. The message to be conveyed is #JagaGBK. The message is packaged in videos that are spread through the Persija player's Instagram account. Through the #JagaGBK video narrative, it is expected that Jakmania can always keep GBK while watching the Persija match.

The importance and process of using theory in nursing researches
Authors: Aydın Ruveyde , Kukulu Kamile
Published: March 2020

Nursing is a health discipline based on philosophy, theory, research and practice. The theories shed light on the formation of knowledge of this health discipline, the determination of research methods, the realization and application of the research process systematically. Theories are very important in determining the problem, how the problem will be solved and how this solution will be transferred to the application. In order for a knowledge to be scientific, it must be based on systematic foundations. In order to develop a professional nursing profession and education, undergraduate and graduate education should be theory based. Professionals should understand the theories in undergraduate education and internalize them, do theory-based research in graduate education, should try theories through research and develop new theories in doctoral education. In this way, the scientific foundations of the nursing profession will be strengthened. In this review, information about the use of theories in nursing research, the importance and limitations of the use of theory are presented.

Authors: Kozielska Joanna
Published: March 2020

The proposed text is an illustration of selected conclusions from a four-module research project conducted in one of the Wielkopolska counties. The aim of the empirical verification was to: make the educational and professional characteristics of the junior high school plans, get acquainted with the opinions of the employers on the situation in the local labor market, get acquainted with the plans connected with the employment of employees, get acquainted with the preparation of graduates of particular types of schools to meet the opinion of the directors of post-gymnasium schools on the state of the vocational education and to get acquainted with the opinions of the students of the upper secondary school classes on the situation on the labor market, the offer of vocational education and the self-assessment of preparation to enter the labor market. The research was conducted in the first quarter of 2016 and 2017, by the diagnostic survey method. The article is based on one of the study modules – a study of middle school students that was conducted in 2016 – the findings from the 2017 study will be cited in some places for comparative purposes only. Due to the specificity of the research topic, the selection of the research sample was random. High school students (N = 486 in 2016 and N = 490 in 2017), upper secondary school students (N = 503 – 2016 and N = 498 – 2017), upper secondary school graduates (N = 6 in 2016 and 2017 ) and the largest employers (N = 78 in 2016, N = 102 in 2017). In this project the diagnostic survey method was used as the basis. The method used to analyze the contents was made using the local traditional (printed) and internet press and the thematic work edited by the County Labor Office in Gniezno and other institutions. The main topic of this paper was the educational and vocational elections of junior high school students in the context of the situation on the local labor market (which, as it turns out, does not correspond to its needs), revealing weaknesses in vocational counseling. Regarding the specific nature of the region, attention has also been paid to the face (as opposed to the offer) of vocational education (depicted in the vocational school 2017/2018) depreciated in the eyes of the local community, which in the reality of the local labor market seems to be a rational educational choice without causing closure Road to higher education. The dissertation on vocational education has been made an additional element of publication.

Background: The Brugada Electrocardiographic Indices Registry is a comprehensive data registry composed of patients with Brugada patterns on the electrocardiogram (ECG). The aim is to test the hypotheses that (i) ECG indices combining both depolarization and repolarization abnormalities can better predict spontaneous ventricular arrhythmias than existing ECG markers in Brugada syndrome and (ii) that serial ECG measurements will provide additional information for risk stratification, especially in asymptomatic patients.

Methods: Patients with both Brugada pattern ECGs and Brugada syndrome are eligible for inclusion in this registry. Baseline characteristics and ECG variables reflecting depolarization and repolarization will be determined. The primary outcome is spontaneous ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation or sudden cardiac death. Secondary outcomes are inducible ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation and syncope.

Results: As of November 15, 2019, 39 investigators from 32 cities in 18 countries had joined this registry. As of December 15, 2019, 1383 cases had been enrolled.

Conclusions: The Brugada Electrocardiographic Indices Registry will evaluate the disease life course, risk factors, and prognosis in a large series of Brugada patients. It will therefore provide insights for improving risk stratification.
Tubular carbon membrane for Hydrogen separation: Effect of Pyrolisis condition
Authors: Sharip Mohd Syafiq , Sazali Norazlianie
Published: March 2020

Hydrogen (H2)-based economy development is expected to create extensive need for efficient collecting strategies of fairly high purity H2. The aim of a H2-selective membrane is to manipulate H2’s high diffusivity characteristics as well as to restrict the outcome of lower solubility. Carbon membranes offer high potential in gas separation industry due to its highly permeable and selective. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effect of pyrolisis temperature on the gas separation properties. Matrimid 5218 used as a precursor for carbon tubular membrane preparation to produce high quality of carbon membrane via pyrolisis process. The polymer solution was coated on the surface of tubular ceramic tubes by using dip-coating method. Dip-coating technique offer high potential in fabricating defect free carbon membrane. The polymer tubular membrane was then carbonized under argon atmosphere at 600, 700, and 800, and 900oC with heating rate of 2 oC/min. Matrimid 5218-based carbon tubular membranes were fabricated and characterized in terms of its structural morphology, chemical structure, thermal stability, and gas permeation properties by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and pure gas permeation system, respectively. The highest H2/N2 selectivity of 401.08±2.56 was obtained for carbon membrane carbonized at 800oC with heating rate of 2oC/min

Published: March 2020

Malaysia is one of the largest producers and exporters of palm oil in the world, accounting for 11% of the world's oils & fats production and 27% of the export trade of oils & fats. Oil palm tree will start bearing fruits after 30 months of field planting and will continue to be productive for the next 20 to 30 years. Thus, a proper costing method is very important in order to have a clear picture of its profit loss and gain for the next 20 to 30 years. The aim of this work is to apply the activity based costing (ABC) as a method of cost estimation for the palm oil plantation. The ABC has been applied to analyze the costing for every activity involved in the palm oil plantation. The actual cost information of each activity has been obtained through a process flowchart. Other than that, proper cost driver has been assigned in order to obtain the actual manufacturing cost of an oil palm plantation. The expected monthly manufacturing costs of xxx company has been calculated which is MYR 494303.04 and consequently the accurate profitability can be achieved. Accurate profitability is the most important factor for the management to identify the money that process in order to maintain rapid but sustainable growth. Therefore, ABC has assigned actual cost information and proper cost drivers for each of the activities being involved and it makes the company’s profitability more accurate.
Violencia institucional y violación del derecho a la salud: Elementos para repensar la exigibilidad del derecho a la salud en el México actual
Authors: Bellamy Clara
Published: March 2020

The objective of the present investigation was to generate evidence on elements that may constitute obstacles in the exercise of the right to health, while documenting violations of said right and characterizing the main forms of institutional violence suffered by users of public health services.  The recommendations of the Comisión Nacional de Derechos Humanos (CNDH) (National Human Rights Commission), published in its monthly gazette between 2000 and 2016, were analyzed for cases pertaining to health.  A quantitative analysis of simple frequencies and bivariate relationships was carried out and four population profiles were established: pregnant women, non-pregnant women, men and collective cases.  Subsequently, a content analysis of the legal narrations for each group was performed and analyzed through four analytical categories: (attention) waiting time, chain of errors, obstetric violence and exclusion.  We characterize the patterns present in the violation of the right to health and debate against the arguments that support the notion that most of the errors are mainly due to infrastructure problems.  In spite of considering that infrastructure deficiencies effectively influence user attention, a finding of the investigation is that, in a great number of complaint cases presented before the CNDH, infrastructure deficiencies are not the main element, but instead, are superseded by elements related to classism, racism and sexism, perpetrated through practices of discrimination, authoritarianism and social exclusion.
