Authors:   Ryazan State Medical University, Fedoseyev A.V. , Budarev V.N. ,   Ryazan State Medical University
Published: October 2021

BACKGROUND: The problem of liver cirrhosis and associated bleedings from the varicose veins of the esophagus, unfortunately, remains highly relevant for Russia. Undoubtedly, it is important to identify factors that provoke an episode of bleeding. From a practical point of view, the most interesting ones are those that have an easily detectable nature and the maximum possible predictability. One of these factors, which is constantly varying throughout the year, is meteorological conditions. AIM: To evaluate the influence of meteorological factors on the occurrence of bleeding from varicose veins of the esophagus and the possibility of using this information to improve the schemes of primary prevention. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The material for the study was the results of examination and treatment of 86 patients hospitalized in 2016–2018 at the Emergency Hospital of Ryazan with a diagnosis of bleeding from esophageal varices. All these patients underwent fibroesophago-gastroduodenoscopy upon admission. The analysis of meteorological observations for 2016–2018 was carried out based on information from archived summaries of weather data. The results obtained were statistically processed using a standard set of programs. RESULTS: When analyzing the number of hospitalizations of patients with bleeding from varicose veins of the esophagus in different months of the year, a pronounced unevenness of admissions is revealed, the coefficient of variability is 53.65%. After excluding extreme values from the calculations, it was found that the incidence of the pathology increases in spring and autumn, decreases in summer and winter. The maximum incidence occurs in April and September, and the minimum in July and February. To determine the effect on patients of specific meteorological factors, a meteorological profile for a number of months was created from the archived weather data. In the course of statistical processing of the data, it was found that the only meteorological factor demonstrating a stable strong direct correlation with the number of hospitalizations of patients with bleeding from varicose veins of the esophagus (Pearson's correlation coefficient 0.9449) is the average atmospheric pressure gradient. This fact proves the ability of sudden changes in atmospheric pressure to provoke episodes of bleeding from the veins of the esophagus. CONCLUSIONS: When planning a course of primary pharmacological prevention of bleeding emerging the varicose veins of the esophagus, it is necessary to take into account the morbidity peaks occurring in April and September, as well as the ability of sudden changes of the atmospheric pressure to trigger the bleeding episodes.

Published: October 2021

BACKGROUND: Melanoma — is a tumor that in most cases affects the skin and is characterized by an extremely aggressive course and a steadily increasing morbidity in the world. However, diagnosed at an early stage, cutaneous melanoma (CM) has a good prognosis with correct treatment. The results of the diagnosis of CM can be improved by joint the efforts of dermatologists and artificial intelligence (AI). AIM: Cutaneous melanoma is a tumor with an unpredictable course. The article discusses ways to solve the problem of early diagnosis using multi-agent technology and an expert system based on AI. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In a large industrial city with more than three million population, a three-day campaign for the early diagnostics of cutaneous melanoma was carried out, which revealed 4 cases of CM (4.35%) at pT1a stage in 96 patients registered in 2019. A total of 800 people were examined. RESULTS: As a result of diagnostics, the following data were obtained: specificity of self-diagnostics of the region was 6.78% by the inhabitants, 78.89% by dermatologists, and 95.24% by expert oncologists. In prospective quality control of diagnostics within 6 months, such parameters as the sensitivity of diagnosing cutaneous melanoma by oncologists and dermatologists were both 100%. As a result of the study, it was found that the multi-agent technology is necessary to improve the results of CM diagnostics, and also for a more complete assessment of the onco-epidemiological situation, and for forecasting of the necessary resources in the region. CONCLUSIONS: The multi-agent technology can improve diagnostic results, but for a more complete assessment of the onco-epidemiological situation, a large-scale population screening in the region is required.
Destructive lesions of apical periodontitis: achievements of fundamental and applied science in modern approaches to solving the problem
Authors:   Tver State Medical University, Blinova A.V. , Rumyantsev V.A. ,   Tver State Medical University
Published: October 2021

Destructive lesions of the periodontium are a serious professional challenge for dentists. Along with tooth loss, which requires expensive prosthetics, chronic odontogenic inflammation provokes transient bacteremia and disrupts the homeostasis of the body. This leads to an exacerbation of somatic diseases, the development of allergic reactions and atherosclerotic damage to the walls of blood vessels. Timely diagnosis and prognosis, adequate choice of treatment methods play a key role in providing care to patients with this pathology. Depending on the clinical situation, both conservative and surgical strategies can be successful. The aim of this review is systematization of the scientific facts, which were accumulated over the past 5–10 years and describing the existing regenerative surgical techniques and promising possibilities of conservative treatment of destructive apical periodontal lesions. CONCLUSION: The latest materials for tissue regeneration developed by scientists are promising in complicated clinical cases associated with a significant loss of the bone tissue and spread of the lesion to the neighboring anatomical structures (maxillary sinus, nasal cavity, etc.). However, with the development of ideas of a tooth as of a nanostructured organ, integration of nanoscale particles with antimicrobial properties into the composition of temporary and permanent filling materials, conservative treatment methods also possess great practical potential. A deeper understanding of pathophysiology and microbiology of pathological process of cyst formation creates methodological basis for development by dentists of the novel therapeutic methods of treatment of periapical lesions that are currently regarded as a “sentence” to the invasive intervention – cystectomy, resection of the root apex or removal of the causal tooth. Effective endodontics is the key to sparing and predictable elimination of foci of chronic odontogenic infection that deranges homeostasis of the whole organism. This is a promising field for synthesis of fundamental and clinical knowledge, for international scientific cooperation with the primary aim to improve the quality of Human life.
TO THE STUDY OF THE MECHANISM OF TRIGGERING THE PLACEBO EFFECT: PLACEBO AND AUTO-SUGGESTION
Authors:   Center “Practices of Self-Healing”, Khaikin A.V.
Published: October 2021

The current state of research on the placebo effect is considered. The task is set to develop the idea of the role of positive expectation in the mechanism of placebo implementation. A number of assumptions concerning the nature of placebo and approaches to its study are put forward. Consideration of the effect in its linear structure can contribute to the study of the nature of the placebo. It is useful to understand this phenomenon as consisting of a stage of psychological triggering and a stage of psychosomatic and physiological implementation. In turn, it is useful to consider the first of them as consisting of a preliminary stage of forming a positive (or negative – with nocebo) expectation, confidence in a certain effect of a placebo agent, and the stage of actually triggering a placebo. When implementing the placebo effect, the active expectation of a certain internal process and its result activates the mechanism of auto-suggestion, within which the expected is realized. The placebo is triggered by the implementation of one of the types of autosuggestion process, which does not presuppose any purposeful actions of the subject, for example, orders addressed to the unconscious. A significant part of the studies of the placebo effect nature can be carried out within the framework of the study of the mechanisms and patterns of this way of autosuggestion, which is triggered by the confident active expectation of the subject in the onset of certain internal changes. It is clear that such studies can be carried out in contexts other than those of placebo and nocebo implementation, for example, neutral in relation to the physical and emotional state and make their conduct not burdened with ethical problems. Which, of course, can significantly contribute to the intensification of the study of the placebo nature. It is concluded that the proposed concept develops the thesis about the necessary role of positive expectation in the implementation of the placebo effect, explaining the role of expectation in the mechanism of its launch. Understanding the mechanism of the placebo effect as a mechanism for self-suggestion will significantly simplify the conditions for experimental studies of placebo patterns and creates a context for further research.

STUDY OF THE TARGETS OF SCARY IMAGE CORRECTION IN PEOPLE WITH HIGH PERSONAL ANXIETY
Authors:   Ryazan State Medical University, Varlamov A.V. , Yakovleva N.V. ,   Ryazan State Medical University
Published: October 2021

Objectified fears and the corresponding frightening images are the most striking signs of the anxiety-phobic disorder formation. The high manifestation comorbidity of fear and anxiety necessitates a comprehensive and versatile corrective action, and the variety of existing psychotherapeutic approaches provides a wide range of intervention tools. This article presents a method of forming an eclectically oriented psychocorrection program based on the theoretical provisions of cognitive-behavioral, emotional-figurative and analytical approaches, as well as a method for assessing its effectiveness. In order to establish specific corrective targets of influence, the personal characteristics of the subjects were considered as predictors of the effectiveness of the developed program. The scheme of psychocorrectional influence developed within the framework of the study included the stages of actualization of the frightening image, desensitization and cognitive transformation. To actualize the image in the minds of the subjects, the techniques of imaginative (in the imagination) and virtual (using virtual reality equipment) exposure were used. The use of psychocorrectional influence on a sample of 20 volunteers who declared that they had objectified fear and demonstrated a high level of personal anxiety (according to the STAI scale) showed a statistically significant effectiveness. The following traits were established as predictors of changes in the state of the subjects according to the results of correction at different levels: high courage and low pedantry (for personal anxiety), practicality (for the level of expression of the worked out fear), exaltation and emotiveness (for well-being) and daydreaming (for activity and mood). Based on the data obtained, linear regression equations were drawn up, illustrating the comparative contribution of the listed personality traits to the effectiveness of the impact. Based on the results of the study, an eclectic model of corrective action on frightening images in people with high personal anxiety has been developed and their personality traits have been established, which are predictors of the effectiveness of exposure. The data will be useful both in practical work with manifestations of objectified fears, and in organizing further research in the field of psychotherapy.
Natural frequencies analysis of functionally graded circular cylindrical shells
Authors: Alshabatat Nabeel T. , Zannon Mohammad
Published: October 2021

In the present work, a study on natural frequencies of functionally graded materials (FGM) circular cylindrical shells is presented. TheFGM is considered to be a mixture of two materials. The volumetric fractions are considered to vary in the radial direction (i.e., through the thickness) in compliance with a conventional power-law distribution. The equivalent material properties are estimated based on the Voigt model. The analysis of the FGM cylindrical shells is performed using the third-order shear deformation shell theory and the principle of virtual displacements. Moreover, the third-order shear deformation shell theory coupled with Carrera’s unified formulation is applied for the derivation of the governing equations associated with the free vibration of circular cylindrical shells. The accuracy of this method is examined by comparing the obtained numerical results with other previously published results. Additionally, parametric studies are performed for FGM cylindrical shells with several boundary conditions in order to show the effect of several design variables on the natural frequencies such as the power-law exponent, the circumferential wave number, the length to radius ratio and the thickness to radius ratio.

The interrelated concepts of memory policy, historical policy and security policy are considered. It is shown that in Russia and in the Republic of Belarus there is a steady trend of securitization of historical policy and memory policy. The tendencies of indoctrination of the securitist model of historical policy into official documents of both states are considered. It is shown that both in Belarus and in Russia, the internal political confrontation is considered in the historicist construct of the Cold War. It is argued that in the context of the need to deepen integration within the framework of the Union State, it is necessary to search for a relatively unified holistic concept of history for all the forces of Russian and Belarusian societies.

Transformation of the Image of Japan in Murzilka Magazine in the 20th century
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Gromova Mariya
Published: October 2021

The image of Japan in the children’s magazine “Murzilka” has been changing depending on the relations between the USSR and Japan and the development of interliterary ties during the 20th century. During the period of the Japanese invasion to Manchuria and the Lake Khasan Battle, abstract “Japanese” are presented as aggressors, fascists, encroaching on the Soviet borders. The class nature of the Japanese-Chinese conflicts is emphasized. During the period of the Khrushchev Thaw Japan turns out to be a country with an interesting and unique culture. There are published poems and songs of Japanese poets, fairy tales, descriptions of folk holidays and everyday life, “paper theater” kamishibai there. In the first decade after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Japan mesmerizes “Murzilka”’s readers with the unity of material and spiritual culture, presented in ikebana, origami and tea ceremony. It is a country that exists beyond time, and the basis of Japanese life is formed by ancient traditions and exquisite holidays.

We motif of social violence in the space of cinematic communication
Authors: Tarasov К. A.
Published: October 2021

Social violence traditionally has been a constituent in the information flow of artistic communication, of the cinematic one especially. With the language specific to cinema it is easier, than with the languages of other arts, to attract and command the attention of a broad public with the spectacle of violence. Also, as a rule, it is more economical because of the relatively low cost of embodying violence on the screen considering the overall expensiveness of film production. In the West, the filming of practices of violence aimed at entertaining the public, as well as the public concern at the possibility of their negative impact on the rising generation, has a long history. Within the concept of “the audience as the victim” there were thousands of studies conducted, especially in USA. In the USSR cinema of the entertainment orientation was under the ideological ban which put the representation of violence within certain boundaries. In the 1990s the situation of cinema changed drastically. Je escalation of entertainment violence on the screen caused a public concern. Sociologists began to study its perception by and impact on spectators. In this regard, the article considers the experience of conceptualizing the reformatting of its representation after, consequent upon the impact of the last century’s revolutionary violence, cinema had obtained the status of “the most important of all the arts” and “the social significance” of the violence became the cultural code of its representation. But with the transition of Russian cinema to the market, foreign entertainment movies were granted open access to the nation’s film screens. Entertainment violence reached the status of a commercially important communicative attraction. Its effectiveness in this function is viewed in the article based on the materials of sociological surveys conducted among filmgoers of the cities of Kirov and Ekaterinburg. Another side of the issue considered as well is the sociocultural effects of violent images on the rising generation in whose midst there is a “risk group” that merits careful research and preventive acknowledgment in the process of social control.
Analysis of children’s toys as a method for predicting the future generation
Authors: Novikova E. S.
Published: October 2021

This research analyses social and generational theories by sociologists and economists, the patterns of development of society that they identified, and also traces the correlation between the portrait of a particular generation and toys for children under 7–11 years old, prevalent during the formation of this generation. An overview of modern popular toys is given and a forecast is made about what features and values of a generation can form their distribution. At the beginning of the research, the author discusses the connection between N. Kondratyev’s wave theory, which reflects the economic situation influencing the formation of a generation, and the Hove-Strauss theory of generations, as well as sociological works that supplement the modern understanding of generations: A.M. Rykiel’s generational values hierarchy, classification of generations by Yu.M. Levada. Further, attention is paid to the history of toys from the 1920s to 2020s and an analysis of the influence of toys on the formation of a generation is carried out. Some patterns are found between the values of a generation and toys widespread in the appropriate historical period, the result of the influence of modern toys on the portrait of a generation is predicted, and the reasons for such modern trend as gamification are also discussed. The search for patterns by which society is changing and the description of different generations and the historical and economic factors that determined their formation give the opportunity for the scientists to predict the image of the next generations. This perspective is relevant for the future as it has the prospect of development at the junction of social and exact sciences, may be used to predict scenarios of the future development of society. Revealing causal relationships and their subsequent expression by methods of mathematics will allow companies and government agencies to be more ready for new challenges, adapt to changes in society’s needs and trends in its development. At this stage, the research partially forecast the face of the generation born in 2000- 2020, and asks questions for further research1.

Diagnosis of a tracheal tear by use of an oxygen analyzer in a dog with cervical trauma
Authors: Walters Kate L. , Knight Rebekah C.
Published: October 2021

CASE DESCRIPTION

A 7.75-year-old sexually intact male Welsh Terrier was examined because of cervical soft tissue wounds and an inability to maintain hemoglobin oxygen saturation without oxygen supplementation following a dog attack.

CLINICAL FINDINGS

A 2-cm-long penetrating wound that extended into a large open pocket was identified on the left ventral aspect of the dog’s neck. The dog was anesthetized and underwent advanced imaging, the findings of which suggested that the trachea was intact. However, when the cuff of the endotracheal tube was deflated during the dog’s recovery from anesthesia, sudden oxygen desaturation occurred. Given no radiographic signs of deteriorating lung injury, a tracheal tear was suspected. For rapid confirmation of a tracheal tear, without the need for additional advanced imaging, the oxygen concentration at the skin wound was investigated by use of an oxygen analyzer. When the dog was breathing 100% oxygen, the analyzer identified a higher oxygen concentration at the edge of the penetrating wound, compared with the concentration of oxygen in room air; the leakage of oxygen-rich gases from the airway through the wound confirmed the presence of a tracheal tear, immediately indicating the need for surgical exploration and repair.

TREATMENT AND OUTCOME

Surgical repair of the tracheal tear with a left sternothyroideus muscle flap was successfully performed.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

For this dog, an oxygen analyzer was used to confirm the presence of a tracheal tear, suggesting that application of an oxygen analyzer may be useful in the emergency management of neck trauma cases.
Validating mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) cut off points as an indicator of nutritional status among nine tribal populations of India
Authors: Kshatriya Gautam K. , Chakraborty Raja , Mondal Nitish , Bose Kaushik
Published: October 2021

Mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) is an alternative anthropometric measurement to assess undernutrition but a universally accepted cut-off is yet to be established. The objectives of the present study are to determine whether the proposed sex-specific global cut-offs are suitable across several tribes in India. This cross-sectional study was conducted among nine tribal populations in India (1046 males, 1087 females). Weight, height and MUAC values were obtained, and body mass index (BMI) was calculated. The BMI cut-off (<18.5 kg/m2) was used to determine chronic energy deficiency (CED). The ROC Curve analyses of binomial logistic regression for MUAC versus CED revealed optimal cut-off point of MUAC as 23.8 cm (in males) and 21.8 cm (in females). MUAC cut-offs were similar in females, relative to males, in all tribes. Males with MUAC<24cm and females with MUAC<22 encompassed significantly higher numbers of CED than those with MUAC≥24 and ≥22 cm, respectively (χ2-value males: 254.9, p<0.001; females: 493.60, p<0.01). A single cut off point of MUAC may not be universally applicable for diverse populations and both sexes as well. It seemed that there is no alternative than to undertake further validation studies in various populations before using the MUAC cut off to identify undernourished or CED condition.
Intragroup variation in the Pre-Columbian Cuba population: A perspective from cranial morphology
Authors: Syutkina Taisiya , Pérez Mario Juan Gordillo , Hernández Godoy Silvia Teresita , Antúnez Carlos Arredondo , Rivero Armando Rangel
Published: October 2021

The paper aims to study intragroup variation inside the two pre-Columbian Cuban populations: the aceramic Archaic and the ceramic Taino groups, based on their cranial morphology. The latter applied artificial cranial deformation to all its members, so the groups are referred to as “non-deformed” and “deformed” samples here. Studies across different disciplines suggest evidence of cultural and biological diversity inside the non-deformed group, while local variations of applying the deforming device can be responsible for shape variation across the deformed group. Cranial metrics and non-metric cranial traits of the 92 crania of Cuban origin were analyzed, although the sample size varied between the analyses due to the incompleteness of the crania. Geometric morphometrics was applied to the deformed crania to study the shape variation across the sample. Three deformed crania from the Dominican Republic were analyzed together with the deformed Cuban sample to test the variability of the practice between the islands. Principal component analysis and the Mantel test did not reveal any geographic differences in the cranial metric traits. No morphological differences associated with the antiquity of materials could be seen either based on the available data. The principal component analysis of the Procrustes coordinates of the cranial vault outline in the lateral norm revealed continuous variability of cranial shapes from the ones with more flattened frontal and occipital bones to the more curved outlines, which is probably explained by individual variation. Non-metric traits variation revealed bilateral asymmetry in the expression of the occipito-mastoidal ossicles among the deformed crania. In conclusion, the study did not support assumptions about morphological diversity inside the studied samples or proved the impossibility of available craniological data to reflect possible intragroup differentiation at the moment.
Low birth weight and birth weight status in Bangladesh: A systematic review and metaanalysis

The prevalence of low birth weight (LBW) is high in Bangladesh, but no study has collated recent estimates of LBW prevalence from throughout the country. The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the prevalence of LBW and birth weight status in Bangladesh. We searched PubMed, Medline, Ovo and Google Scholar to find published articles in national and international journals from 2000–2020 and reviewed for relevance. Meta-analysis and Q test were performed to estimate the prevalence and hetero-geneity of LBW from all included articles. Meta-regression was done to quantify associations with sample size and study year. Stratified analysis was conducted and effect size calculated for differences in LBW prevalence by sex, division and urban/rural area. In total 48 studies with 166,520 births were found and included in this meta-analysis. The pooled prevalence of LBW was 29.1% (95% CI, 28.9–29.3%) in overall, 29.9% (29.7–30.2%) in rural and 15.7% (14.9–16.6%) in urban areas. There was no significant difference in average birth weight between boys and girls (SD, 0.71; 95% CI, −0.43–1.83). Prevalence of LBW was higher in north-east Bangladesh compared to other zones (p<0.05). The pooled prevalence of LBW did not change significantly for last two decades. The prevalence of LBW in Bangladesh remains high. Lack of im-provement suggests an urgent need for scaled up maternal and prenatal interventions and services known to reduce LBW. Urban/rural and divisional differences in rates suggest areas of greatest need.

Published: October 2021

Nature-based tourism relies on the beauty of nature to maintain sustainability and attraction. However, karst environment is vulnerable to disturbance due to tourism activity. This study, therefore, aims to analyze the social, ecological, physical, real, and effective carrying capacity of Pattunuang Assue Nature Tourism Object, Bantimurung Bulusaraung National Park. Data were collected through field measurement, observation, and interviews. Data of visitors’ favorite spot and its size were measured through observation and field measurement. Visitors’ perceptions related to the destination, including their duration activities were collected through interviews. It was further collected by observing the various spots of activity, and measuring the area of restrictive factors such as physical (number of rainy days), biotic (vegetation diversity at tree level, the diversity of birds during the busy visiting hours, the initial period of the Tarsius fuscus’ birth). We also observe the equipment and infrastructure of the destination and collected data related to management through interviews with the managers. This study reveals various carrying capacity value which can be used as an option for the managers to choose the best way to manage destination in the right way. The result showed that particular activities exceeded carrying capacity but other activities far below their carrying capacity value. The study furthermore discusses how to deal with numerous activities. It also suggests an increase in the number of visitors by considering their ecological characteristics and management capacity.
Anxiety and depression in tyrosine hydroxylase deficiency: a case report
Authors: Alarcon Belen Garcia , Walterfang Mark , Thevathasan Wesley
Published: October 2021

Background:

Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) deficiency is a very rare genetic disorder of monoamine synthesis which - alongside Guanosine triphosphate (GTP) cyclohydrolase deficiency - is one of the metabolic dopa-responsive dystonias. These disorders classically present as a dystonia with onset in adolescence which is non-progressive and responds to standard dopaminergic treatment: however, little is known about the relationship between TH deficiency and psychiatric illness.

Case Presentation:

We describe a case of a young woman who, in the absence of any heralding psychiatric symptomatology of any nature, developed a severe and limiting panic disorder at around the time of onset of her movement disorder in the setting of TH deficiency, which impacts dopamine synthesis.

Conclusion:

Neurometabolic disorders that affect neurotransmitter function frequently present with psychiatric symptomatology and can provide models for understanding some frequently presenting psychiatric illnesses such as depression and anxiety. We discuss the interplay between the dopaminergic and serotonergic systems, and how an ostensibly dopaminergic disorder could produce what has long been understood to be a serotonergically-driven anxiety syndrome.
Analisis Komentar Followers terhadap Identitas Gender Beauty Influencer Laki-Laki di Instagram

A phenomenon that starts to become popular in social media, especially Instagram, is becoming a content creator that focuses on beauty, also known as beauty influencer. Beauty influencers are identical to pretty and feminine concepts, but as the time goes by, male beauty influencers started to emerge as well. This created positive and negative opinions in society, especially about their gender identities. In Indonesia, genderless issue starts to attract public attention. Many people started to question the stiff gender categories by expressing their opinions regarding this phenomenon. This research was conducted with qualitative approach with Teun Van Dijk text analysis method. Data collection was conducted by observations, interviews, and documentations. Based on analysis, it is found that changes in society may affect an individual's social system, attitude, value, and behavioural pattern. People in the past recognise that men are masculine and women are feminine. Nowadays, gender limitation line is getting thinner, prioritising human rights. This proves that the perception of gender identities in the society are slowly changing.Salah satu fenomena yang marak di media sosial khususnya Instagram adalah menjadi content creator di bidang kecantikan atau yang biasa disebut dengan beauty influencer.Beauty influencer identik dengan konsep cantik dan feminine. Seiring perkembangan zaman, saat ini ada pula beauty influencer berjenis kelamin laki-laki. Hal tersebut memunculkan berbagai opini positif maupun negatif dalam masyarakat, khususnya mengenai identitas gender yang mereka tampilkan. Di Indonesia, isu genderless semakin menjadi perhatian publik. Orang-orang mulai mempertanyakan kategori gender yang kaku dan mengemukakan berbagai pendapat atas fenomena ini. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan pendekatan penelitian kualitatif menggunakan teknik analisis wacana Teun Van Dijk. Metode pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan menggunakan observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Berdasarkan hasil analisis dapat diketahui bahwa adanya perubahan dalam masyarakat dapat mempengaruhi sistem sosial, sikap, nilai, dan pola perilaku individu. Masyarakat pada zaman dulu memiliki persepsi bahwa pria harus maskulin dan perempuan feminin. Sementara zaman sekarang, garis pembatasan gender semakin tipis dan lebih mengutamakan hak manusia. Hal tersebut membuktikan bahwa persepsi mengenai identitas gender yang ada dalam masyarakat sudah perlahan-lahan berubah.
