Analysis of Increasing Knowledge, Attitudes, and Behaviors for Type 2 Diabetes Complication Prevention
Authors: Rusmini Rusmini , Suyanto Edy , Nurwahidah Nurwahidah , Maharani Ratih Putri
Published: November 2023

Diabetes mellitus is characterized by elevated blood sugar levels due to either a lack of insulin or decreased cellular sensitivity to insulin. Type 2 diabetes accounts for most (90%) of all diabetes cases. Diabetes mellitus is a significant contributor to mortality, mainly because it leads to complications such as atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, and stroke. The research was designed as a quasi-experiment, employing a pre-test and post-test with a control group. The analysis included the use of Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney tests. The sampling method used was purposive sampling, involving 100 participants. The results of the data analysis using the Wilcoxon test in the treatment group indicated a p-value of 0.000 (p<0.05) for the knowledge, attitude, and behavior variables. In the control group, a p-value of 0.002 (p<0.05) was observed for the knowledge variable, while p-values of 0.001 (p<0.05) were found for the attitude and behavior variables. These findings support the acceptance of the alternative hypothesis (Ha) and the rejection of the null hypothesis (H0), suggesting that the use of video media and modules positively impacts increasing knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors aimed at preventing complications. When examining the intervention group and control group using the Mann-Whitney Test, the p-value of 0.000 was less than 0.002, indicating that the use of video educational media in the intervention group significantly improved knowledge. Likewise, the statistical tests on attitudes in both groups revealed a p-value of 0.000, which was less than 0.001, signifying that video educational media significantly improved attitudes in the intervention group. Finally, the analysis of behavioral tests demonstrated a p-value of 0.000, which was less than 0.001 in both groups, highlighting the greater impact of video educational media in enhancing behavior. In conclusion, video educational media and modules effectively enhance knowledge, attitudes, and behavior in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, video education is more influential in improving these aspects compared to other methods.

Authors: Rosa Marlene , Lopes Susana , Silva Emanuel , Martins Natália
Published: November 2023

Introdução: A utilização do jogo, enquanto sistema de avaliação em dupla tarefa, tem vindo a demonstrar um potencial relevante pelas suas propriedades. Objetivo: Testar a aplicabilidade do jogo analógico na avaliação de dupla tarefa em pessoas idosas. Metodologia: Foi realizado um estudo observacional, transversal, com uma mostra de 13 idosos com capacidade de caminhar curtas distâncias. A amostra foi caracterizada nas variáveis sociodemográficas, da mobilidade funcional (Timed-up and Go Test-TUG) e da função cognitiva (6-CIT). Os participantes foram avaliados na sua performance (tempo/seg.) no jogo Labirinto (Agilidades, Inc.) nas diferentes modalidades: grelhas de jogo limpo (S, M e L) vs grelhas de jogo com pistas cognitivas. Para cada modalidade foram recolhidas 3 tentativas. Depois de uma análise descritiva (mediana, IIQ) da performance no jogo, no TUG e no 6-CIT, foi analisada a diferença estatística entre níveis de jogo (wilcoxon) e calculada a correlação entre a performance, o TUG e o 6-CIT. Resultados: Na modalidade de jogo limpo a mediana do tempo aumenta de acordo com a dimensão das grelhas (S:7.67 - L: 14.50);correlações fortes foram encontradas entre o TUG e o tempo nas grelhas S (r=0.802) e L (r=0.808).A variabilidade entre tentativas é superior para a grelha Mpistas (1.53-20.67). Entre o 6-cit e o Spistas (0.580), Mlimpo (0.639) e Mpistas (0,636) foram detetadas correlações moderadas. Conclusão: Dificuldades de equilíbrio resultam num aumento de dificuldade no desempenho no jogo limpo. Algumas adaptações ao protocolo do Jogo podem ser determinantes para garantir condições de segurança na avaliação de dupla tarefa em idosos.

Public management of sport: a description and comparative analysis of the organizational structure in Brazil and Portugal
Authors: Avalone Athayde Pedro Fernando , Figueiredo António
Published: November 2023

This article delves into the public management of sports policies in Brazil and Portugal, relying on a descriptive and comparative analysis of the organizational structures adopted by the two countries. The study takes the form of descriptive-analytical research employing a qualitative approach with an exploratory scope. The employed methodologies encompass bibliographic review and documentary analysis. The primary objective was to describe and conduct a comparative analysis of the public management of the national sports policies in Brazil and Portugal, using the organizational structures in the sector as a benchmark, up until 2022. The findings reveal that both countries share a history of tethering or subordinating sports to various realms of state activities. This aspect could be interpreted as indicative of institutional fragility, highlighting a diminished political legitimacy of the sector and a lesser integration into the governmental agenda. Distinguishing between them, a noteworthy discourse revolves around the establishment of a national sports system. This system delineates competencies, responsibilities, and modes of interaction. In this regard, the Portuguese context appears to make more significant strides compared to the Brazilian scenario.

The Power of Images: Exploring Gender Performances of Filipino Female Celebrities on Instagram
Authors: Sumaylo Reynes Lastimoza
Published: November 2023

Instagram is a social photography ‘app’ designed to run on a Smartphone through which the social media user can produce visual and textual impressions, thus allowing the ambient viewer to interact and distribute these impressions (Mirsarraf et al., 2017). This study aimed to examined how social media networks are changing the way female celebrities portray themselves to the public and how these digital platforms are assisting in the cultivation of celebrity personas. This study was analyzed using feminist theory, and framing analysis. The results revealed that each female celebrity used Instagram in different ways; however, there were commonalities to their self-representation. Anne Curtis Smith, Liza Soberano, and Kathryn Bernardo all used the medium as more or less a self-promotion tool. Anne Curtis Smith created a somewhat accessible persona, though this was done through self-objectifying, body centric, and sexually explicit images and messaging; Liza Soberano created an accessible persona through less objectifying visual messaging; and Kathryn Bernardo created a dynamic and distant persona through sexualized and dream-like imagery and subject matter.
Principals’ Management of Co-curricular Activities as Determinant of Students’ Completion Rates in Public Technical Training Institutions in Kiambu County, Kenya
Authors: Mwaura Mercy , Waweru Samuel , Mbirithi Daniel
Published: November 2023

Purpose: Principals play an important role in the management of co-curricular activities such as planning. However, in Kiambu County, students’ completion rates in technical training institutions are low. This study intended to assess principals’ management of co-curricular activities as determinant of students’ completion rates in public technical training institutions in Kiambu County, Kenya.

Methodology: The study adopted mixed methodology and concurrent triangulation research design. Qualitative data were analyzed thematically along the objectives and presented in narrative forms. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics such as frequencies and percentages and inferentially using Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation Analysis with the help of Statistical Packages for Social Sciences and presented by using tables.

Findings: The study established that, dropout rates among students in public technical training institutions have been high which has led to fluctuating students’ completion rates. The study further established that principals play a key role in the management of co-curricular activities and how such activities influence students’ completion rates in public technical training institutions. However, the study revealed that most principals are rarely involved in the actual planning of CCAs but appreciate the value of such activities in the wholistic growth and development of students.

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study recommends that, as a practice, principals should continue allocating more resources for improving infrastructure for co-curricular activities. As a policy, the Ministry of Education should formulate a policy enabling colleges to partner with other statehooders to provide resources and better the quality of facilities meant for CCAs in technical training institutions.
Twee patiënten met acute toxische hepatitis na recente inname van thee

Two patients with toxic hepatitis after tea ingestion

Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is common and can manifest in various degrees: from asymptomatic increased transaminases to hepatocellular jaundice with an elevated total and direct bilirubin to acute liver failure. When accompanied by jaundice, there is a mortality rate of 10%. In acute liver failure, referral to a tertiary centre is necessary.

This article emphasizes the consideration of herbal and dietary supplements (HDS). The use of HDS in Europe and the US is rising. Some studies state that 1 out of 3 to 1 out of 2 Americans take dietary supplements, which raises concerns about HDS-related toxic hepatitis. HDS involve any supplement that could cause liver damage, including herbs, vitamins, minerals, amino acids and proteins. The prevalence of hepatotoxicity is underestimated.

DILI is a diagnosis of exclusion. Diseases that should be excluded, are viral hepatitis, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), alcoholic steatohepatitis (ASH), hereditary hemochromatosis, autoimmune hepatitis, Wilson’s disease and alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency. If there is an increased total and direct bilirubin with or without cholestasis, bile duct stones and hepatobiliary malignancies should be excluded. A liver biopsy may be necessary if the diagnosis is unclear or when several diagnoses are plausible.

Liver damage usually occurs within 1 to 6 months after starting the product and is usually reversible.

It is important to bear in mind HDS when considering DILI as the incidence of HDS is clearly increasing.

Exploring Disruptive Adolescent Behaviours on Social Media: A Case Study During the Times of Crisis
Authors: Nawi Aliff , Khamis Nor Yazi , Hussin Zalmizy , Abdul Aziz Muhammad Noor
Published: November 2023

Social media usage has been observed to increase in times of crisis, like the COVID-19 pandemic, when it served as the primary means of communication with the outside world. The amplification is hypothesised to cause higher adverse consequences to adolescents with disruptive behaviours. These vulnerable youngsters, characterised by higher negative emotionality, could experience a more unfavourable impact of the media than those with non-disruptive behaviours. However, the extent to which the media can affect disruptive adolescents is unknown. Twenty-one secondary school adolescents identified with several disruptive behaviour records were selected for a survey and online observation of an explanatory mixed-method design. Nine adolescents’ personal Instagram accounts were observed for over three months. The data recorded a medium-high social media use among the respondents, particularly in maintaining existing relationships. There were patterns of oblivious, excessive attention-seeking posts from the qualitative exploration, which conflicts with the adolescents’ weak agreement on using the media to make themselves known. The adolescents’ postings on spiritual advice brought some engrossing tone down of the adolescents’ behaviours. The grounded religious beliefs could be their self-control mechanism when using the media. The echo chamber of their spiritual advice postings and controlled media use could be much-needed interventions for adolescents with disruptive behaviours.

An in vitro Model to Study Placental Functions in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
Authors: Sharma Amarish Kumar , Nayak Nihar Ranjan , Jena Manoj Kumar
Published: November 2023

Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a serious pregnancy complication that affects around 14 % of pregnancies worldwide. It not only causes short-term complications in the mother and child but also significantly increases the risks of several chronic diseases, including cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. An excess production of the soluble vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor 1 in the placenta, which is a natural inhibitor of VEGF, has been linked to various pregnancy complications. However, placentas affected by GDM often exhibit increased vascularization, suggesting that the role of VEGF in GDM differs from its impact on typical pregnancy complications. Unfortunately, limited studies on placental functions in GDM have been conducted due to a lack of reliable culture models. Methods: In this study, we developed an in vitro model of GDM using the human choriocarcinoma trophoblast cell line BeWo and examined the effects of VEGF on glucose uptake. The BeWo cells were treated with a high glucose-containing (25 mM) syncytialization differentiation medium to produce insulin-resistant cells. Insulin resistance was assessed by a glucose uptake assay using the fluorescent glucose analog 2-NBDG and flow cytometry analysis. Results: The cells treated with high glucose exhibited a significant decrease in glucose uptake, suggesting the successful development of glucose resistance in these cells. However, VEGF treatment did not show a significant impact on glucose uptake in high glucose-treated cells. Conclusions: It is important to note that glucose homeostasis is a complex process involving multiple cell types, and further studies are necessary to fully understand the functions of VEGF on GDM placentas. Nevertheless, the in vitro model we have developed and validated will be a valuable tool for studying placental pathophysiology in GDM and evaluating the effectiveness of potential therapeutic agents.
HIGHLIGHTS

BeWo cells are the choriocarcinoma cell line which were cultured in the in vitro condition
BeWo cells were differentiated using forskolin and 8-Br Camp
Insulin resistant model of BeWo cells were prepared by high glucose (25 mM) treatment
The effect of VEGF on glucose homeostasis in GDM model of BeWo cells was observed

Apprendre à tenir compte des voix des élèves autistes dans la formation initiale pour soutenir l’éducation inclusive
Authors: Boisvert Marie-Eve , Lavigne Andréa
Published: November 2023

Les déclarations internationales récentes sur les droits des enfants de même que les changements de paradigme pour une éducation inclusive amènent à réfléchir à la considération des points de vue des élèves à l’école. Ainsi, cet article vise à s'interroger sur la place des voix des élèves dans la formation initiale des futures personnes enseignantes. Des exemples tirés de deux recherches ethnographiques réalisées avec des élèves autistes du secondaire et du préscolaire permettent de réfléchir à l’espace discursif donné aux élèves en classe et à la réelle prise en compte de ce qu’ils expriment. L’analyse permet de dégager des pistes pour incorporer les voix des élèves à la formation initiale et en montrer l’importance dans la pratique enseignante. L’hétérogénéité des moyens d’expression des élèves, de même que des points de vue, amène à la prudence relativement aux interventions uniformes. Les pistes dégagées illustrent la nécessité de sortir d’une logique de comparaison à la norme, et de plutôt dresser des portraits positifs des élèves qui montrent leurs capacités. Les pistes émergentes contribuent à mettre en doute les représentations qu’ont les personnes étudiantes des difficultés des élèves.
Un stage d’intervention pédagogique sous l’angle des approches inclusives : évolution des pratiques et des perceptions des stagiaires
Authors: Koubeissy Rola , Malo Annie
Published: November 2023

Cet article est tiré d’un projet de recherche mené auprès des stagiaires dans le cadre d’un programme de formation initiale des enseignant-es au Québec. Il a pour but de saisir l’évolution des pratiques inclusives de deux étudiantes stagiaires et de leurs perceptions à propos de ces pratiques tout au long d’un stage d’intervention pédagogique au primaire. Pour ce faire, nous nous sommes basées sur les cinq domaines des pratiques inclusives observables (Finkelstein, et al., 2021). La collecte de données repose sur l’analyse de trois travaux demandés aux stagiaires dans le cadre de leur stage : deux productions écrites et l’analyse d’un extrait vidéo d’une activité d’enseignement qu’elles ont réalisée. L’analyse des données est organisée en trois phases : avant, pendant et après l’expérience du stage. Elle met en exergue l’élargissement des domaines des pratiques inclusives tout au long du stage, d’une phase à l’autre. Les perceptions des stagiaires des pratiques inclusives ont également évolué, mais différemment. La perception de l’une des stagiaires s’inscrit dans la perspective d’engager et de faire participer tous/tes les élèves et celle de l’autre est orientée vers des pratiques pour des élèves ayant des besoins particuliers.
INADEQUACY OF APPLICATION OF SENTENCING POLICY FOR PERPETRATORS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
Authors: Prelević Plavšić Snežana , Spasojević Đorđe , Dragojlović Joko
Published: November 2023

The paper addresses the issue of domestic violence in Serbia, with a focus on the judicial treatment of perpetrators of this criminal offense and the position of women as the most common victims. The aim of the paper is to examine whether the judicial treatment is lenient and inadequate, thus violating the principle of equality before the law and jeopardizing the protection of victims and children. The paper relies on quantitative analysis of official statistical data on domestic violence in Serbia over a period of 18 years (2002-2020), obtained from reports of relevant institutions. Additionally, the authors analyze verdicts of the basic courts of the Republic of Serbia using a random sampling method, investigating aspects related to circumstances considered as mitigating factors. The paper demonstrates that a significant number of reports of domestic violence are dismissed or the proceedings are halted, and the sentences imposed are mostly conditional and lenient. The authors conclude that the judicial treatment of domestic violence perpetrators in Serbia is inefficient and discriminatory, leading to inadequate protection of victims and children and the perpetuation of violent patterns. The paper also highlights the urgent need for comprehensive intervention by the state and society to prevent and combat domestic violence. The authors propose possible measures to improve the situation, such as strengthening the legal framework, providing support to victims and perpetrators, and conducting qualitative research on the motivations, attitudes, and experiences of both perpetrators and victims of domestic violence.

Današnjicu karakteriše izrazito ubrzan razvoj informacionokomunikacionih tehnologija. Ova tehničko-tehnološka pojava, kao u ostalom i svaka druga pojava, ima i pozitivne i negativne društvene implikacije. Njene pozitivne strane dobro su poznate i neizostavno su nesporne. Međutim, ona, kao što smo pomenuli, poseduje i negativne strane. U okviru ovog rada predmet analize biće samo jedan aspekt negativne strane prisutnosti informaciono-komunikacionih tehnologija u današnjem društvu, tj. bavićemo se pitanjem negativnog uticaja informaciono-komunikacionih tehnologija na jednu od najranjivijih grupa našeg društva – na decu. U tom smislu, analiziraćemo međunarodne propise koji regulišu pitanje zloupotrebe dece na internetu. Kada je reč o domaćoj regulativi predmet analize biće fokusiran na četiri karakteristična oblika zloupotrebe dece na internetu (trafiking, vršnjačko nasilje, tzv. seksualne devijacije i krađu ličnih podataka), a u okviru normativnih propisa kojima se suzbijaju, mada pre svega preveniraju ovakve pojave.
REPORTING IN DAILY NEWSPAPERS IN SERBIA AND REPUBLIC OF SRPSKA IMMEDIATELY AFTER ACTS OF VIOLENCE: A CASE STUDY OF THE MASS MURDER AT VLADISLAV RIBNIKAR PRIMARY SCHOOL
Authors: Mlinarević Jovana
Published: November 2023

On the first day after the mass murder, a qualitative content analysis was conducted on nine daily newspapers in Republic of Srpska and Serbia. It aimed to determine the existence of similarities in the reporting of daily newspapers in the two countries, compare the existing reporting with current media regulations and self-regulation, identify any violations, and provide recommendations for future, more ethical reporting, given that a number of ethical lapses were observed in the reporting. The analysis of this event has both scientific and societal justification because the event impacted all members of society, and one of the tasks of science is to provide concrete advice on how to report ethically, professionally, and in accordance with recommendations and existing norms. Ethical lapses in the media can have consequences during times of crisis, shock, disbelief, panic and concern, which were understandably triggered in the audience, given that an event of this nature had not been recorded in our societies before.

Abstract. The effects of anthropogenic warming on the hydroclimate of California are becoming more pronounced, with increased frequency of multi-year droughts and flooding. As a past analog for the future, the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) is a unique natural experiment for assessing global and regional hydroclimate sensitivity to greenhouse gas warming. Globally, extensive evidence (i.e., observations, climate models with high pCO2) demonstrates hydrological intensification with significant variability from region to region (i.e., dryer or wetter, or greater frequency and/or intensity of extreme events). Central California (paleolatitude ~42° N), roughly at the boundary between dry subtropical highs and mid-latitude low pressure systems, would have been particularly susceptible to shifts in atmospheric circulation and precipitation patterns/intensity. Here, we present new observations and climate model output on regional/local hydroclimate responses in central California during PETM. Our findings based on multi-proxy evidence within the context of model output suggest a transition to an overall drier climate punctuated by increased precipitation during summer months along the central coastal California during the PETM.

Abstract. The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of natural river floods on biotic communities. To this purpose, we used freshwater mussels (FMs), recognized as one of the most reliable bioindicators in aquatic environments. A well-established valvometry technique was applied to measure the FMs valve gaping behaviour, considering both gaping amplitude and frequency. The mussels have been employed in two distinct configurations, either free to move or stuck on vertical bars.  We performed experiments in a laboratory flume and in the Paglia River (Italy). The FMs valve gaping movement was first recorded, then the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) analysis was applied to the signals to get the time-dependent frequency of the signals. Laboratory experiments allowed to assess to what extent stuck mussels react differently than free mussels to abrupt increases in flow conditions. Subsequently, we examined the response of thirteen stuck mussels installed in real riverine conditions during a moderate flood occurred on March 31, 2022, with a rapid increase of the water level. The experimental results demonstrate that stuck mussels produce signals that are more consistent and easier to interpret compared to free mussels, primarily due to the reduced number of features resulting from movement constraints. The stuck mussels in the field showed a sharp and timely change of valve gaping frequency as the flood ramped up, thus confirming the findings in the laboratory. The results highlight the effectiveness of using FMs as bioindicators for assessing the impact of floods on the aquatic ecosystem, and the utility of CWT as a suitable signal processing tool for analyzing valvometric time series. These findings provide a pathway towards the integration of FMs valvometry and CWT for the development of operational real-time Biological Early Warning Systems (BEWS) aimed at the monitoring and safeguarding of aquatic ecosystems.

Abstract. Soil respiration measurement is important to assess natural carbon dioxide production. The closed chamber technique allows relatively easy soil respiration monitoring. A planned spatially large-scale campaign incites us to implement our ultra-low-cost portative chamber The chamber itself is entirely built from commercial parts with little, easy-to-make, quick machining work. The resulting setup is an easy-to-operate standalone, robust device. Used sensors are cost-effective yet accurate digital sensors that were successfully checked against some reference sensors. All these characteristics made the described chamber accessible to build and use for a wide scientific and educational community. The wide interest aroused by this construction among our colleagues pushes us to share our achievements. In this short note, we describe this simple device along with used sensors and apparent respiration quotient tip.

Abstract. Central Dronning Maud Land (cDML) is part of the late Mesoproterozoic Maud Belt in East Antarctica, which was metamorphosed and deformed during the Ediacaran–Cambrian Gondwana assembly. Here we study high-pressure (HP) mafic rocks in Gjelsvikfjella, cDML, which occur as lenses and pods transposed in highly strained, upper amphibolite-facies gneisses. We present a P–T–t history for the HP rocks based on mineral assemblages, reaction textures and new U–Pb zircon data. Relics that indicate an early HP granulite-facies stage have been identified in anhydrous garnet–clinopyroxene rocks. The peak-pressure assemblage was plagioclase-free and contained garnet, titanite, clinopyroxene and quartz. The HP assemblage has been extensively overprinted by lower-pressure phases and exhibits a variety of symplectite and corona textures that record the post-peak-pressure evolution of the rocks. Decompression and heating in the granulite-facies field resulted in the replacement of titanite by ilmenite–clinopyroxene symplectite, formation of clinopyroxene–plagioclase intergrowths and resorption of garnet by plagioclase–clinopyroxene kelyphite. Formation of late orthopyroxene in symplectites and kelyphites demonstrates that the P–T evolution entered the medium-pressure granulite-facies field. The peak metamorphic stage was followed by retrograde cooling into the amphibolite facies. In situ laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) U–Pb dating of zircons indicate Mesoproterozoic protolith ages (1150–1000 Ma) and Ediacaran–Cambrian metamorphic reworking at ca. 568 and ca. 514 Ma. The HP granulites were formed and exhumed during a clockwise P–T evolution related to continental collision during Gondwana amalgamation, followed by post-collisional extension and orogenic collapse.
