Authors: Muhammad Danial  , Hari Setijono  , Nining Widyah Kusnanik
Published: January 2020

The purpose of the study was to compare the effect of creatine and thiamine supplementation on heart rate recovery (HRR) and blood lactate levels. Twelve male students comprised the two experimental (creatine and thiamine) groups of the study. The creatine group was supplemented with 0,3 g per weight, with 30 ml of water per dose of creatine four times a day, at regular intervals during the day, for 6 consecutive days. The thiamine group received 10 mg per weight just one time 30 minutes after a meal with 150 ml of water at the last supplementation days. After the supplementation period, subjects completed the incremental treadmill after a dynamic warm-up that consisted of walking at 6 km/h for 3 minutes. An initial treadmill speed started with 8,64 km/h for two minutes at 0% gradient followed by an increase of 1,44 km/h every 30 s until subjects reached their volitional exhaustion. After exercise cessation subjects continued with an active recovery of 10.08 km/h for approximately 5 minutes. Heart rate (HR) was regularly assessed from the first 5 min of passive recovery. Blood lactate levels were measured in the 9th min of passive recovery. There were no statistically significant differences in heart rate recovery and blood lactate levels after supplementation, respectively (P > 0.05). Based on these results, it appears that creatine supplementation did not provide a different effect with thiamine on the recovery of heart rate and blood lactate levels.

Abstraction reflective student in problem solving of Mathematics based cognitive style
Authors: Fuady Anies , Purwanto - , Susiswo - , Rahardjo Swasono
Published: January 2020

The student's reflective abstraction ability in solving problems is necessary because the result of a person's reflective abstraction is a scheme used to understand something, finding solutions or solving problems. Besides, reflective abstractions are essential to higher mathematical, logical thinking as they occur in logical thinking in children. Therefore, to develop a reflective abstraction notion of high-level mathematical thinking, it is necessary to separate what is an essential feature of reflective abstraction, reflect its rules on higher mathematics, recognize and reconstruct it so that a similar theory of knowledge Mathematics and its instructions. While research that will researchers do is to know how the process of reflective abstraction of students in solving problems in terms of cognitive style. This is because the cognitive style is closely related to how to receive and process all information, especially in learning. The various trends in their learning can be identified and then classified whether the child belongs to an independent field cognitive style (thinking tends to have the independence of views) or field dependent.

Globalization, dwindling state power, and the asymmetric forces challenge
Authors: Ibok Anweting Kevin , Paschal Aniah Undie
Published: January 2020

The vast and yet growing body of literature on the subject of globalization and the state suggests a cause-effect relationship in which the former is the cause of the latter’s declining power, in the face of the credible challenge of asymmetrical forces. However, this paper takes a different stand that, far from being the cause, globalization is merely the environment, a historical stage, within which a third variable creates an HIV-like condition on the state and which has enabled opportunistic asymmetrical elements to contest with the state for power and space. We intend to demonstrate that the real culprit is an agglomeration of interests and movements espousing pseudo-liberal tendency that has undermined the capability of the state, and has evened the odds for the asymmetrical forces. We will identify the trends of this tendency and the methodology of their operation. This discussion takes place within the frameworks of classical liberalism and Thomas Ferguson’s investment theory of party competition. This paper method is entirely analytical, relying on existing literature but putting the facts in their proper perspectives.
Language and the conception of reality
Authors: Mendie John Gabriel , Udofia Stephen N
Published: January 2020

There is a widespread belief that language is a veritable instrumentum laborat (working tool) for the communication of thoughts and the conception of reality. There is equally a lingering belief that language pictures or mirrors reality. Nevertheless, to what extent can we authenticate this existing opinion? Is it the case that the conglomerate of reality can be represented linguistically without any iota of defect/fallibilism? Can language mirror reality perfectly as it is, in itself? What really is the ontological status of language? What is language anyway? How does it relate to the world? How does it relate to the mind? Should our view of language influence our view of the world? Even more seriously, what is the limit of language in the herculean task of conceiving and revealing reality? Armed with the concerns highlighted above, this paper, attempts to grapple with these questions, by first seeking insights into the meaning, nature and use of language; the nature of reality; and the role of language within the context of effective representation and a veridical a fortiori conception of different ‘forms of life and states of affairs’ of reality.
Single Incision Laparoscopy Performance and Current Status in Surgical Practice
Authors: Bhat Javid Ahmad , Malik Ajaz A , Wani Munir Ahmad , Mir Irfan Ahmad
Published: January 2020

The techniques of single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) is developed and based on that of conventional laparo-endoscopic surgery. At first, surgeons wanted to devise a method for visceral surgery with no incision on body’s surface, which is called natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES). As early as the 1970s, Dr. Raimund Wittmoser, the “father” of modern thoracoscopic surgery of the autonomic nervous system, used a single-intercostal incision through which he inserted a multifunctional port which contained all the instruments and optics. Another example of SILS in early times is the application of laparoscopic instrumentation to resect lesions in the rectum or sigmoid colon. Using the anus as the portal of entry, trans- anal endoscopic microsurgery (TEMS) employs a specialized multichannel trocar to reach lesions located 8 to 18 cm away from the anal verge. Compared to NOTES, SILS is easier, safer, more applicable and convenient for surgeons to master and the main reason is that physicians, but not surgeons always use endoscopes. However, laparoscope has been a tool for surgeons for a long time.
Bilateral Sacrospinous Colposuspension (BSC) for the treatment of vaginal vault prolapse – description of a novel method
Authors: Kieback Dirk G.
Published: January 2020

Vaginal vault prolapse is observed with increasing frequency in the era of large ageing populations. Various surgical techniques have been established, varying in performance, difficulty and outcome, specifically complications. A bilateral sacrospinous colposuspension technique (BSC) with a corresponding mesh prosthesis was developed using a direct I-Stitch fixation of the 38 micro-gram mesh from the vaginal apex or uterine cervix to the sacrospinous ligament or the para-sacral tendinous region for the treatment of an anatomical central pelvic floor defect. As a minimally invasive approach with the potential for conservation of the uterus, this technique should be applicable to all age groups including the increasingly frequent elderly patient with significant comorbidities.
Introducing a new service of a midwife-led telephone follow-up clinic for 3a & 3b Obstetric Anal Sphincter Injury:retrospective service evaluation and patients' satisfaction survey
Authors: SHAWER SAMI , INNAYAT SAMREEN , HUTCHINSON HALEY , BALLARD PAUL , KHUNDA AETHELE
Published: January 2020

Background Most patients with 3a and 3b perineal tears will be asymptomatic. The need for all patients to attend a hospital appointment can be questioned. We set up a midwife-led telephone review clinic for such injuries. We aim to evaluate this service by auditing it and also by analyzing patients’ satisfaction through a patient satisfaction survey.

Methods We performed retrospective analysis of the patients’ notes over 18 months. We evaluated this service by auditing its adherence to specified standards within the local guidelines and by performing a patients’ satisfaction survey of the new service via anonymized postal Friends and Family test.

Results We looked at 66 sets of notes, of which 48 had datasets with complete clinical/symptomatic data. 14/21 3a and 17/27 3b OASI were asymptomatic and discharged. Only 3 patients with 3a tear and 6 with 3b tear were referred to the consultant-led clinic. From 89 patients who had a midwife-led telephone clinic, 21 responded to the postal survey (23.6%). Two had not received their telephone appointment. 17/19 (89.4%) responded very good or good to the question ‘how well do you think your questions and concerns were addressed’. 16/19 (84.2%) responded extremely likely or likely to the question ’how likely are you to recommend this service to friends and family’.

Conclusions A midwife-led telephone follow-up clinic for patients who sustained 3a and 3b tears seems to be an acceptable service for these patients with high satisfaction rate. We believe that this service has the potential to save time and resources for both patients and healthcare providers.

Dalam Hindu kesehatan manusia bisa dicapai tidak saja secara jasmani saja, namun juga rohani. Secara rohani, tubuh sebagai simbol-simbol tempat bersthānanya Tuhan dalam wujud Dewa tertentu yang merupakan media bagi umat Hindu untuk mendekatkan diri dengan Sang Pencipta, mengadakan dialog dengan Yang Maha Kuasa untuk memohon perlindungan dan wara nugraha-Nya. Sehingga umat Hindu berkeyakinan bahwa, dalam tubuh manusia secara kosmik dilinggakan Dewa untuk mengatur fungsi tubuh. Melalui latihan meditasi fungsi-fungsi tubuh diaktifkan kembali dengan cara memproduksi konsestrasi, kesadaran dan kebijaksanaan, yaitu getaran dari perbuatan meditasi yang sangat diperlukan oleh tubuh dan merupakan pembangkit getaran-getaran energi semesta. Melalui perspektif teologi kesehatan Hindu mengungkap tentang kesehatan terkait dengan kepercayaan umat Hindu terhadap Tuhan, dimana Tuhan dipercayai sebagai sesuatu yang mempengaruhi kesehatan.

Authors: Maali Mahyar
Published: January 2020

Torsional behaviors of col- formed steel beams are investigated for the webs which are filled by polypropylene. Four I and U profile beams filled with polypropylene were manufactured and tested. In the study, two specimens U100 and two specimens I100 profiles with 1.5 m length and 1.20 mm thickness and thin-walled cold-formed steel profiles were used. The aim of this study is to investigate the torsional behavior of the composite material formed by pouring the polymer material into the U and I profile molds after homogenous pulping. A total of two groups of samples will be obtained: empty cold-formed steel profiles and waste polymer. In this study, finely ground waste and/or raw PP (polypropylene) was used as filling material. The polypropylene is not only improved the torsional behavior strikingly; but also give a way on environmental profit for waste recycling.

The digestive tract in Eriocheir sinensis consists of the alimentary canal which includes a foregut consisting of the mouth, esophagus, and stomach. The mouth is surrounded by several pairs of appendages which are specialized for chemoreception and prey capture while esophagus is short and straight moves food from mouth to the stomach, which look like an oval sac divided in to two parts called the cardiac chamber and the pyloric chamber. The composition of digestive tract were investigated and the diet analysis was assessed using two methods: points and frequency of occurrence. The main food items included eight types, the highest percentage of 43.6% shrimp, 42.8 % detritus and 14.5% sand, while the lowest were (0. 39 %, 0.69% and 0.97% for eggs, plants and filament algae respectively. Feeding intensity and activity values arranged between 12 -15.9 and 76 - 86%, respectively, while the Vacuity index were 14 - 31.6%, and Feeding index values were 59.9 - 79.7%.

Published: January 2020

The study was established to evaluate the effect of adding selenium with or without vitamin E on some of productive and physiological characteristics of Awassi male lambs. Sixteen lambs were selected after weaning with average weight of 24.30 kg and 3-4 months. All lambs fed 2% of body weight with basal diet and 1 kg green alfalfa /Lamb/day. The lambs were randomly divided into 4 groups. Control group (no additives), Selenium group (0.4 mg selenium), Vitamin group (100 mg vitamin E) and selenium + vitamin E group (0.4 mg selenium + 100 mg vitamin E) per kg dietary dry matter for 90 days. At the end of experiment, lamb performance and concentrations of Thyroxin T4, insulin and growth hormone were measured. The result showed that selenium and the combination of selenium + vitamin E treatments significantly increased (p <0.05) growth rates, final live body weight 42.20, 41.75 kg, respectively, and average daily gain 195, 191 g/day, respectively compared to other treatments. A significantly increase (P <0.05) in the concentrations of thyroxin hormone (T4) recorded in selenium + vitamin E treatment 18.20 ng/ml compared to selenium treatment and vitamin treatment. A significantly increase (P <0.05) in the concentrations of growth hormone of selenium treatment which recorded 9.279 ng/ml compared to vitamin treatment and control group. There is no difference in insulin hormone concentration between the groups. So we conclude that the addition of selenium with or without vitamin E to lamb diets achieved significant improvement in final body weight, daily weight gain, thyroxin and growth hormone.

This study has been conducted to determine and identify the metal elements of dates syrup extracted from Khstawy, Zehdy and Shukary using Scanning electron microscope-Energy dispersive Spectrometer (SEM-EDS) technique. The results showed that dates syrup was rich in both metal and non- metals elements. The obtained results showed some different trends in the date syrup content of mineral elements. The results showed the availability of Carbon (C) element in dates syrup extracted via hydraulic pressure from Khstawy (80.73%), Zehdy (65.28 %) and Shukary (68.49%) varieties while in dates syrup produced thermally (80.59%) and dates syrup produced without thermal (72.16%). Oxygen (O) ratio in Khstawy, Zehdy, Shukary, dates syrup produced thermally, and dates syrup produced without thermal were 18.92, 35.27, 15.26, 19.09 and 27.46 respectively. Moreover, the results showed the availability of sodium (Na) (0.17 %), sulphur (S) (0.11 %), potassium (K) (0.05%), silicon (Si) (0.03%) in the dates syrup extracted from Khstawy, while in Zehdy variety there was Aluminum (Al) (0.33%), potassium (K) (0.08%), chloride (Cl) (0.03%), magnesium (Mg) (0.01%). In Shukary variety, Al (5.24%), K (0.05%), nitrogen (N) (10.73%), (S) (0.06%), copper (Cu) (0.18%). Additionally, the results showed that the quantity of metal elements available in dates syrup produced thermally were found as follow as follows: Na (0.22%), S (0.1%) as well as O and C. Yet, the number of the metal elements in the dates syrup produced by hydraulic pressure was more that the dates syrup produced thermally are as follows: Na (0.1%), Al (0.1%), K (0.1%), S (0.02%), Si (0.03%) and phosphor (P) (0.02%).
