Effect of Service Quality Dimension and Marketing Mixed Dimension of Consumer Loyalty with Consumer Satisfaction as Mediation
Authors: Andrianto Yohanes , Santoso Singgih
Published: December 2019

The phenomenon of the emergence of many souvenir shops in the Purbalingga area of Central Java has resulted in increasingly strong business competition. In order to survive in the face of competition, business actors need to pay attention to important aspects in running their business. The author takes several aspects, namely the dimensions of service quality (physical evidence, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy) and the dimensions of the marketing mix (products, prices, places, promotions) that can influence customer loyalty with customer satisfaction as mediation. The author makes the Original Nopia Shop as a research object because the shop is one of the souvenir shops that are quite old and famous in the Purbalingga area. The design of this study was a survey using a questionnaire distributed to 200 respondents of Original Nopia Store customers with a purposive random sampling method. Research variables were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) and obtained the following results: (1) Service quality significantly influences customer satisfaction, (2) Marketing Mix does not significantly influence customer satisfaction, (3) Consumer satisfaction has a significant effect on consumer loyalty, (4) consumer satisfaction does not mediate between the influence of service quality on consumer loyalty, (5) consumer satisfaction is able to mediate between the influence of marketing mix on consumer loyalty, (6) consumer satisfaction does not mediate between the influence of service quality and marketing mix simultaneously towards consumer loyalty.

Published: December 2019

Indonesia as a legal state, the presence of law in a country aims to guarantee life to protect the interests of citizens. In the Indonesian government system there are several branches of power, namely the legislative, executive and judiciary branches, the judicial power branches are the Supreme Court and the Constitutional Court. The Constitutional Court's authority is contained in Article 24 C paragraph (1) and (2) adjudicating at the first and last level whose decision is final to review the Law on the Constitution. Marriage agreement is a form of agreement that regulates assets in marriage and others. A marriage agreement is also an agreement which can affect other regulations. So with the regulation of the marriage agreement in Article 29 paragraph (1) prior to the lawsuit for judicial review to the Constitutional Court stating that the marriage agreement was made at the time, and before the marriage took place, this is what prevents many married couples from different citizens who previously were not have a marriage agreement while their interests require a marriage agreement. The decision analysis can be concluded that the Urgency of the marriage agreement in its decision No.69 / PUU-XIII / 2015 states that the importance of the marriage agreement is related to the position of shared property so that there is a separation of husband's assets with the wife's assets both regarding their respective belongings and the assets that belong to each other obtained during the marriage known as joint property. Whereas the assets obtained before their marriage period together are known as inheritance or personal property obtained after the marriage period which is usually referred to as acquisition assets. Due to the legal marriage agreement before MK Decision Number 69 / PUU-XIII / 2015, Indonesian citizens who carry out marriages mixed and does not make a marriage agreement, the Indonesian citizen may not have immovable property in the form of ownership or building rights.
The Use of Pocket Dictionary and Online Word-For-Word Translation on Reading Skill: An Experimental Study at Sman 4 Kota Bima Academic Year 2018/2019
Authors: Dinarty Arma
Published: December 2019

This research is aimed at comparing the impact of published pocket dictionary (PD) and online word-for- word (OWfW) translation on the students’ reading skill. The study was conducted at the second year students of SMAN 4 Kota Bima in the academic year 2018/2019. The method used was experimental study wherein two classes of students were purposively selected as experimental samples. One class of 32 students (i.e. XI Science 1) served as the pocket dictionary group and one class of 32 students (i.e. XI Science 2) were selected as the word-for-word online translation group.  Each group was taught three types of reading texts (i.e. narrative, argument, and procedure) obtained from pedagogic texts in the textbooks and authentic texts from other (non-textbook) sources. Pre-test and post-test were administered to each group prior to and after the treatment. The data was analyzed by using multiple t- test formula comparing multiple dimensions of the dictionary use and the reading skills. The study shows that both PD and OWfW translations were equally effective in assisting the students with the reading skills. PD translation is more effective for skimming skill useful for general comprehension of reading texts, OWfW translation is more effective for helping students scan for specific information in the texts. The paper also discusses opportunities and challenges facing the students in using the dictionary types.

Published: December 2019

This study aims to empirically examine the effects of competence, independence, work experience and internal control systems. Using 61 samples of employees working as auditors in the Maluku Provincial Inspectorate, Ambon City and West Seram District, the data analysis method uses SEM-PLS with the help of the Warp PLS 6.0 application. The results showed that competency had no effect on audit quality, because respondents' demographics had competencies that were not in accordance with the standards, so that in the last few years they had received a fair audit opinion with an exception. Independence has a positive effect on audit quality, the auditor who is always objective in carrying out the audit process, will produce a quality audit. Work experience has a positive effect on audit quality, the more experienced the auditor, the easier it will be to detect audit problems. The internal control system is able to strengthen the relationship of competence, independence and job satisfaction with audit quality, this shows that a good internal control system will support the creation of quality audits.

Morfologías del peronismo clásico en el discurso de Cristina Fernández (2007-2011)
Authors: Estévez Rubín de Celis Juan Ignacio
Published: December 2019

Desde un enfoque posestructuralista, este artículo desarrolla una aproximación a las formas de representación del peronismo clásico (1945-1955) en el discurso de Cristina Fernández de Kirchner (cfk) de su primer mandato (2007-2011). En este periodo, el discurso kirchnerista recupera con vigor la matriz histórica del peronismo clásico o primer peronismo, anclando parte de su narrativa en el aparato simbólico-discursivo del peronismo de la década de 1940. En este sentido, aquí se examina de qué forma el kirchnerismo se presenta como una identidad deudora del peronismo clásico a través de una resignificación discursiva del momento de emergencia del peronismo como identidad política.

Authors: Ambya  , Nairobi  , Wayan Suparta I , Desfiandi Andi , Said Jamaliah
Published: December 2019

Purpose: As a province located outside Java Island, the provinces in Sumatera Island have diversity in economic growth among the regions which could lead to the inequality of development. This study aims to analyze the convergence of sigma and absolute beta and also to measure the speed of the convergence of the economic growth in the new autonomous regions in Sumatera.

Methodology: The research method in this study used the data panel in the form of Fixed Effect model.

Results: The result of the research showed that the convergence of sigma occurred over four years during the study period while the convergence of the absolute beta did not occur. It can be seen from the Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) per capita levels of the new autonomous regions which are lower and it does not grow faster than the new autonomous regions which have higher GRDP per capita levels. The absolute convergence rate is 11 percent per year and the time it takes to close half of the initial half-time conversion (the half-time convergence) is six years.

PRODUTIVIDADE E TEOR DE NUTRIENTES EM POPULAÇÕES DE MILHO SAFRINHA SOLTEIRO E CONSORCIADO COM BRAQUIÁRIA
Authors: MAKINO PRISCILA AKEMI , CECCON GESSÍ , FACHINELLI RICARDO
Published: December 2019

A densidade de plantas é uma das variáveis agronômicas com maior influência sobre a produtividade de grãos e, em sistemas consorciados, pode minimizar a interferência da braquiária sobre o milho. Objetivou-se avaliar o teor de nutrientes foliares e a produção de massa e grãos de milho safrinha, consorciado com Brachiaria brizantha cv. BRS Paiaguás, com populações de plantas, em espaçamento reduzido. A pesquisa foi conduzida na safrinha de 2016, em Dourados-MS, em delineamento experimental de blocos casualizados, com parcelas subdivididas, e quatro repetições. As parcelas foram constituídas pelos sistemas de cultivo de milho solteiro e consorciado e as subparcelas, pelas populações de plantas de milho (45.000, 52.000, 65.000 e 96.000 plantas ha-1). O consórcio milho-braquiária reduziu os teores foliares de N, P, Ca, S e Cu do milho, mas incrementou a massa seca de palha na maior população. A massa seca por planta, o número e massa de grãos por espiga diminuíram com o aumento da população de milho, porém a massa seca total e a produtividade da cultura aumentaram, independentemente da presença da forrageira. As populações de plantas de milho têm maior influência sobre o seu crescimento e produtividade do que a presença da braquiária.

The objective of this study was to compare whole grains of different corn hybrids in the finishing diet of lambs in terms of apparent digestibility, ingestive behavior and feedlot performance. Twenty-four crossbred lambs housed in individual pens were used. The animals were fed 7.35% hay and 92.65% concentrate (dry matter basis) containing 23.05% of a protein supplement plus 69.6% whole corn grains of the hybrids P3862, P4285 or Status for 72 days and were then slaughtered. The final body weight (40.82 kg) or daily weight gain (251 g) did not differ between lambs fed the different hybrids. Daily dry matter intake, expressed as percentage of live weight, was lower in the group fed the Status hybrid and intermediate in the group fed the P3862 hybrid. The Status hybrid resulted in lower digestibility of dietary crude protein, dry matter, and organic matter. There was no difference in hot carcass weight (19.8 kg), hot carcass yield (48.6%) or ingestive behavior between animals fed the different hybrids. Whole grains of the corn hybrids P3862 and P4285 are more indicated for fattening lambs fed with high-concentrate diets.

ESTADO NOVO COMO PROPOSITOR DA NAÇÃO: O TEMA DO REGIONALISMO PERPASSANDO A IDEOLOGIA DO REGIME ENTRE 1938 E 1945
Authors: Azevedo Dias Weslley Luiz de
Published: December 2019

O tema do regionalismo assumiu importância crucial ao longo do desenvolvimento do Pensamento Político Brasileiro. Como tópico constante nas discussões de várias obras, tal assunto passou a fazer parte, não somente, de um cânone, como também de um imaginário total de nacionalidade. Durante o Estado Novo, vários autores dedicaram-se a uma tentativa de compreensão da gênese de questões cruciais para o desenvolvimento da nação. Nesse sentido, será objetivo deste trabalho compreender a maneira como seus textos expressaram a questão do regionalismo no Brasil e, dessa forma, examinar as disposições sobre o assunto durante o Estado Novo. Utilizaremos obras de alguns arautos do regime, como Oliveira Viana, Manuel Duarte, Francisco Campos e Azevedo Amaral. Outras serão dos intérpretes oficiais do regime, como Almir de Andrade e o próprio Getúlio Vargas. Para efeito comparativo, trabalharemos também alguns dos opositores do governo, em busca de talvez uma postura diversa em relação ao tema. Para tal intento, nos valeremos de uma exploração contextualista nos moldes de John Pocock como base interpretativa para os diálogos da época.
Cultivo in vitro de Piper aduncum espécie com potencial econômico da Amazônia Sul-Ocidental

Published: December 2019

A pimenta de macaco (Piper aduncum) é uma espécie nativa da Amazônia, que possui grande potencial econômico em razão de o seu óleo essencial conter substâncias bioquímicas com propriedades fungicida e inseticida. Seu cultivo é sustentável, podendo ser explorado de forma não destrutiva e renovável. Com a crescente demanda para a produção de óleo essencial dessa espécie, existe a necessidade da implantação de cultivos comerciais, e com isso se tem como limitação a oferta de mudas em quantidade e com qualidade. A produção de mudas em laboratório por meio da micropropagação supre tal necessidade, já que permite a obtenção de material isento de doenças e em larga escala. O objetivo deste trabalho foi verificar os parâmetros necessários para o cultivo in vitro de sementes dessa espécie. Foram realizados três experimentos: germinação e crescimento inicial, multiplicação e enraizamento in vitro. Foram utilizados os meios de cultura MS e WPM em diferentes concentrações salinas. Para multiplicação in vitro foram testadas quatro citocininas em cinco diferentes concentrações, e para o enraizamento in vitro foram utilizados três tipos de auxinas em seis diferentes concentrações. Todas as variáveis foram submetidas à análise de variância e, quando o valor de F foi significativo, utilizou-se a comparação das médias pelo teste de Tukey ao nível de 5% de probabilidade de erro, para tratamentos qualitativos. Já para os tratamentos quantitativos, foi realizada análise de regressão polinomial ao nível de 5% de probabilidade de erro. Verificou-se que a germinação in vitro das sementes de P. aduncum deve ser realizada se utilizando sais do meio MS; para a multiplicação e o enraizamento in vitro não é necessária a adição de reguladores de crescimento nesse meio, provavelmente os níveis endógenos desses reguladores nos explantes são suficientes para suprir suas necessidades de crescimento e desenvolvimento. Observou-se também que a utilização de citocininas propicia o aparecimento de calos na base dos explantes.

Published: December 2019

Inhame, macaxeira e batata-doce são vegetais importantes no Nordeste brasileiro, uma vez que esses tubérculos são ricos em amido. Os Polihidroxialcanoatos (PHAs) são polímeros biodegradáveis produzidos a partir de amido e utilizados na produção de plásticos. O objetivo deste trabalho foi isolar e identificar bactérias com potencial aplicação biotecnológica para produção de polihidroxialcanoatos a partir da rizosfera e superfície de túberas de inhame, macaxeira e batata-doce. A coleta das culturas bacterianas ocorreu por meio da retirada do solo da rizosfera e da superfície das túberas. Após diluições seriadas e semeio do solo em meio de cultura, bactérias com características morfológicas distintas foram selecionadas para análise através do PCR de colônia. Das 214 bactérias analisadas, 11 amostras foram positivas para o gene phaC, fator fundamental para síntese de PHA. Nove bactérias apresentaram resultado satisfatório para produção de grânulos de PHAs após coloração de Sudan Black. Dentre as bactérias positivas no PCR e Sudan Black, oito foram identificadas por sequenciamento ao nível de gênero ou espécie, como: Pseudomonas, Bacillus, Agrobacterium, Stenotrophomonas, Cupriavidus e Microvirga flocculans, sendo esta última descrita pela primeira vez na literatura como produtora de PHA. A aplicação de PCR de colônia com coloração por Sudan Black mostrou-se eficiente e rápida para a seleção de bactérias potencialmente produtoras de PHAs a partir de amostras de solo.

This study was developed by students of scientific initiation of High School (PIBIC/EM). For data collection a semi-structured questionnaire was applied to the students of the respective courses during the period of their classes in the Institution. It was observed that 63% do not have knowledge about the correct procedure of disposal of drug residues and 55.6% still discard the expired drugs in the common trash. Regarding household cleaning products, 90.1% of the participants do not know how to dispose of these residues in their homes, despite frequent use (83.8%). Concerning residues of insecticides, rodenticides and repellents, about 50% of the participants discard the waste in the common bin and 44% do not know how to dispose of these products. Overall, this study showed that High School students from the Environmental Sanitation and Biotechnology technical Course inappropriately dispose of the drug residues and sanitary household products in their homes. Thus, it emphasizes the importance of including the topic about waste management in basic education courses.

The ghost-rock of the Chansin quarry (Belgium) – A remarkable example of pseudogallery
Authors: Dubois Caroline , Quinif Yves
Published: December 2019

In the Chansin quarry (Belgium), a horizontal karstic gallery which seems to be totally filled has been discovered. The study of this filling shows that it is composed of a residual alterite from the bedrock. The ghost-rock karstification has stopped just after the first phase of this karstogenesis. The residual alterite is still present, without significant geometrical modification. The transition between the unaltered bedrock and the ghost-rock is very clear. We present the characteristics of this ghost-rock which is here regarded as a typical example of a pseudo-gallery and act as a reference for further definition.

Published: December 2019

Aim: The purpose of this study was to compare root canal volumes (RCVs) obtained by means of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to those obtained by micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) after applying different segmentation algorithms. Methods: Eighteen extracted human teeth with sound root canals were individually scanned in CBCT and micro-CT using specific acquisition parameters. Two different images segmentation strategies were applied to both acquisition methods (a visual and an automatic threshold). From each segmented tooth, the root canal volume was obtained. A paired t-test was used to identify differences between mean values resulted from the experimental groups and the gold standard. In addition, Pearson correlation coefficients and the agreement among the experimental groups with the gold standard were also calculated. The significance level adopted was 5%. Results: No statistical differences between the segmentation methods (visual and automatic) were observed for micro-CT acquired images. However, significant differences for the two segmentation methods tested were seen when CBCT acquired images were compared with the micro-CT automatic segmentation methods used. In general, an overestimation of the values in the visual method were observed while an underestimation was observed with the automatic segmentation algorithm. Conclusion: Cone beam computed tomography images acquired with parameters used in the present study resulted in low agreement with root canal volumes obtained with a micro-CT tomography gold standard method of RCV calculation.

Penafsiran al-Qur’an menampakkan kontestasi ideologi oleh para mufassirnya, sebagaimana yang terjadi di era afrmatif perjalanan tafsir al-Qur’an. Kontestasi ini dirasakan secara lansung maupun tidak lansung berupa keterpengaruhan intelektual. Artikel ini membuktikan tesis tersebut, dengan menemukan adanya beberapa ajaran kemu’tazilahan (I’tizālāt) dalam tafsir Anwār al-Tanzīl karya al-Baiḍāwi yang notabene nya seorang sunni. al-Baiḍāwi menawarkan penafsiran seperti mu’tazilah dalam memahami ayat eskatologis semisal: azab kubur, bertemu Tuhan dll. Dalam analisis tafsirnya, al-Baiḍāwi terlihat memiliki kekaguman kepada sosok al-Zamakhshariy, sehingga membuat analisis tafsirnya seolah mengandung atau meng-iyakan ajaran/ faham mu’tazilah (I’tizālāt)

This paper discusses about the role of Ibn Mujahid and how hiseffortto format of the qirā‘ah sab'ah. Understanding, or at least knowing qirā'ah is an urgent matter, not only because qirā'ah is a scientific discipline of its own, but also because this science allows people who understand it to be able to explain some related scholarship, such as fiqh, law and interpretation itself. Based on this then the concepts of qirā‘ah sab'ah, qirā‘ah ‘asyr, and arba’ah‘ asyr emerge. Among the concepts above, which are widely known by the public are qirā‘ah sab’ah, seven variations of reading (al-Qirā‘ah al-Sab’ah). What a great attention of Ibn Mujahid to the science of qirā'at has led him to compose books that make it easy for the prosecutors to study different kinds of qirā'at in the Qur'an. The book what is meantion is al-Sab'ah fî al-Qirā’ah.
Are Microbes Thermodynamically Optimised Self-Reproducing Machines?
Authors: Saadat Nima P. , Nies Tim , Rousset Yvan , Ebenhöh Oliver
Published: December 2019

To understand microbial growth with mathematical models has a long tradition that dates back to the pioneering work of Jacques Monod in the 1940s. Growth laws are simple mathematical expressions that aim at describing growth rates of microbes as functions of external parameters, in particular nutrient concentrations. These laws are now widely applied to construct, e.g., dynamic ecosystem models. However, to explain the growth laws from underlying (first) principles is extremely challenging. In the second half of the 20th century, numerous experimental approaches aimed at precisely measuring heat production during microbial growth to determine the entropy balance in a growing cell and to quantify the exported entropy. This has led to the development of thermodynamic theories of microbial growth, which have generated fundamental understanding and identified principle limitations of the growth process. Whereas these approaches considered a growing microbe as a black box, modern theories heavily rely on genomic resources to describe and model genome-scale networks to explain microbial growth. Interestingly, however, thermodynamic constraints are often included in modern modelling approaches only in a rather superficial fashion, and it appears that recent modelling approaches and classical theories are disconnected fields. In order to stimulate a closer interaction between these fields, we here review various theoretical approaches that aim at describing microbial growth based on thermodynamic principles. We start with classical black-box models of cellular growth, and continue with genome-scale modelling approaches that include thermodynamics, before we place these models in the context of fundamental considerations based on non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. We conclude by identifying conceptual overlaps between the fields and suggest how the various types of theories and models can be integrated. We outline how concepts from one approach may help to inform or constrain another, and we demonstrate how genome-scale models can be used to infer classical black-box parameters, which are experimentally accessible in growth experiments. Such integration will allow understanding to what extent microbes can be viewed as thermodynamic machines, and how close they operate to theoretical optima.

Calibrating ecological models or making decisions with them is an optimisation problem with challenging methodological issues. Depending on the optimisation formulation, there may be a large variety of optimisation configurations (e.g. multiple objectives, constraints, stochastic criteria) and finding a single acceptable solution may be difficult. The challenges are exacerbated by the high computational cost and the non linear or elusive mathematical properties that increased with the complexity of numerical models. From the feedbacks of practitioners, the need for a guideline for conducting optimisation of complex models has emerged. In this context, we propose a practical guide for the complex model optimisation process, covering both calibration and decision-making. The guide sets out the workflow with recommendations for each step based on existing tools and methods usually scattered throughout the literature. This guide is accompanied with an ODDO template (Overview, Design, Details of Optimisation) to standardise the published description of model-based optimisation and suggests research directions.
Introducing the "K-Shaped Sign", A New Finding on CT to Detect Early-Stage Pancreatic Cancer
Authors: Kobashi Yuko , Matsui Junichi
Published: December 2019

Background: Pancreatic invasive ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the fourth leading cause of cancer mortality in Japan. The early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer, which will increase the number of patients with resectable tumors, is urgently needed. The purpose of the present study was to examine the earliest signs of pancreatic abnormalities on CT in order to facilitate the diagnosis and treatment of PDAC. Methods: Forty-one patients with pancreatic cancer and their 154 CTs were selected for the present study. We used the images that were acquired prior to the diagnosis and examined the pancreas in these images to observe serial changes in the morphology of the pancreas after selecting CT images in which PDAC was suspected. We also confirmed whether the main pancreatic duct was observed around that area of the pancreas. Four thousand two hundred seventy-seven patients without pancreato-biliary disease with 4630 CTs were selected for the control group. Results: Two pancreas shapes were detected: localized constriction of the pancreatic parenchyma referred to as the K-shaped sign, and localized fatty changes. Twenty-four (58.5%) of 41 patients showed the K-shaped sign. The main pancreatic duct without dilatation was noted around the K-shaped sign in 9 of the 24 patients. Eight of 41 patients (19.5%) showed localized fatty changes. Nine of 41 patients (21.9%) showed no abnormality. In the control group, only seven of 4277 patients (0.16%) showed the K-shaped sign. Conclusions: The K-shaped sign including localized fatty changes is the earliest CT sign that presents with pancreatic abnormalities. The K-shaped sign does not indicate PDAC itself but may predict its future development.

Recently, with the deterioration of bridge facilities, demand has arisen for a method to inspect many bridges efficiently. One proposed bridge inspection method involves observation and inspection of cracks on undersides of bridges using a video camera mounted on an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that flies under the bridges. There is an option to have a pilot operate the UAV, but it is desirable to have the UAV fly autonomously when efficiency of inspection is considered. Though there is a method using GPS for autonomous flight control of UAVs, there are many cases in which GPS cannot be utilized under bridges, and a new method is required for autonomous flight control in such places. The authors have already shown that autonomous flight control of UAVs can be achieved within the range of a monocular camera image by measuring the position of a UAV using camera images. However, since the flight range is bounded by the monocular camera image, it is necessary to move the camera position to fly the UAV autonomously in a wider space. In this paper, it is shown that a UAV can achieve autonomous flight control in wider spaces by constructing a single coordinate system for a combination of two camera images. In addition, considering that various measuring instruments might be mounted on a UAV, an adaptive control method capable of obtaining good control performance without changing the design parameters of the controllers should be applied. This method is useful for maintaining control performance when the total weight of the UAV changes. To show the effectiveness of our proposed method, we give an appropriate practical flight target orbit and present its experimental results.
A Tobacco Control Framework for Regulating Public Consumption of Cannabis: Multistate Analysis and Policy Implications

Published: December 2019

Eleven US states and Washington, DC, legalized recreational (adult use) cannabis. Seven states—Alaska, California, Colorado, Massachusetts, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington—allow cannabis sales. A public health concern is that exemptions in state or local smoke-free laws for public cannabis smoking or vaping will weaken smoke-free laws, expose the public to secondhand cannabis, and renormalize smoking.

We describe the experience of the seven states and challenges faced in maintaining smoke-free laws. Using elements of a tobacco control framework, we identify best practices in cannabis regulation by comparing each state’s smoke-free laws and allowances for public cannabis use. All states prohibit public cannabis use; two lack 100% smoke-free protections; one lacks vaping devices in its smoke-free law; three allow cannabis use in retailers; two allow cannabis use in social consumption lounges; and two allow cannabis use in tourism venues.

States should close gaps in smoke-free laws and not expand where cannabis use is permitted to ensure public health.

Published: December 2019

Objectives. To describe and compare 3 garbage code (GC) redistribution models: naïve Bayes classifier (NB), coarsened exact matching (CEM), and multinomial logistic regression (MLR).

Methods. We analyzed Taiwan Vital Registration data (2008–2016) using a 2-step approach. First, we used non-GC death records to evaluate 3 different prediction models (NB, CEM, and MLR), incorporating individual-level information on multiple causes of death (MCDs) and demographic characteristics. Second, we applied the best-performing model to GC death records to predict the underlying causes of death. We conducted additional simulation analyses for evaluating the predictive performance of models.

Results. When we did not account for MCDs, all 3 models presented high average misclassification rates in GC assignment (NB, 81%; CEM, 86%; MLR, 81%). In the presence of MCD information, NB and MLR exhibited significant improvement in assignment accuracy (19% and 17% misclassification rate, respectively). Furthermore, CEM without a variable selection procedure resulted in a substantially higher misclassification rate (40%).

Conclusions. Comparing potential GC redistribution approaches provides guidance for obtaining better estimates of cause-of-death distribution and highlights the significance of MCD information for vital registration system reform.

Published: December 2019

Background:

The association between tibial plateau fracture morphology and injury force mechanism has not been well described. The aim of this study was to characterize 3-dimensional fracture patterns associated with hypothesized injury force mechanisms.

Methods:

Tibial plateau fractures treated in a large trauma center were retrospectively reviewed. Three experienced surgeons divided fractures independently into 6 groups associated with injury force mechanisms proposed from an analysis of computed tomographic (CT) imaging: flexion varus, extension varus, hyperextension varus, flexion valgus, extension valgus, and hyperextension valgus. The fracture lines and comminution zones of each fracture were graphically superimposed onto a 3-dimensional template of the proximal part of the tibia. Fracture characteristics were then summarized on the basis of the fracture maps. The association between injury force mechanism and ligament avulsions was calculated.

Results:

In total, 353 tibial plateau fractures were included. The flexion varus type pattern was seen in 67 fractures characterized by a primary fracture apex located posteromedially and was frequently associated with concomitant anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) avulsion (44.8%). The extension varus pattern was noted in 60 fractures with a characteristic medial fragment apex at the posteromedial crest or multiple apices symmetrically around the crest and was commonly completely articular in nature (65%). The hyperextension varus pattern was seen in 47 fractures as noted by anteromedial articular impaction, 51% with a fibular avulsion and 60% with posterior tension failure fragments. The flexion valgus pattern was observed in 51 fractures characterized by articular depression posterolaterally, often (58.9%) with severe comminution of the posterolateral cortical rim. The extension valgus patterns in 116 fractures only involved the lateral plateau, with central articular depression and/or a pure split. The hyperextension valgus pattern occurred in 12 fractures denoted by anterolateral articular depression. A moderate positive association was found between flexion varus fractures and ACL avulsions and between hyperextension varus fractures and fibular avulsions.

Conclusions:

Tibial plateau fractures demonstrate distinct, mechanism-associated 3-dimensional pattern characteristics. Further research is needed to validate the classification reliability among other surgeons and to determine the potential value in the diagnosis and formulation of surgical protocols.

Published: December 2019

Case:

We describe the case of a 75-year-old patient diagnosed with high-grade epithelioid hemangioendothelioma in the left hemipelvis. She underwent an internal hemipelvectomy, followed by reconstruction with a tumor prosthesis with iliac anchorage using 3D-printed cutting and placement guides. Eighteen months postoperatively, she is pain-free and walks without appliances.

Conclusions:

Using 3D-printed guides could be an appropriate alternative for patients with aggressive bone tumors in the pelvic area that require hemipelvectomy and reconstruction using a prosthesis with iliac anchorage. 3D-printed cutting guides allow precise resection with appropriate margins, could reduce the risk of injuring critical structures, and facilitate proper prosthetic component positioning.
