ABSTRACT

Lung cancer which found mostly in men has been one of problematic diseases in the world as well as in Indonesia. It is currently stated as a disease with the highest death rate. Pollutants and smoking habits are two main causes of lung cancer that researchers have found. The world’s improvement in the study of carcinogenesis and molecular protein bring impacts in the study of lung cancer. Research findings of protein inhibitor to carcinogenesis and new proteins become defiances to the existing therapy that convey great challenges, yet bring a new hope in giving specific therapy through molecular approach. This approach closely relates to genomic projects and has more moderate form of derivation in anatomy pathology examination. Examination technology advance in several researches shows little hopes in giving lung cancer patients’ longer lifespan which are not completely satifsying.

This study aims to give broader insights and an identifier to a more sustain advanced anatomy pathology in determining targeted theraphy and in decision making on giving chemoteraphy medicine. Therefore, chemotheraphy medicines/treatments will not merely be based only on clinical reasons, but also use more molecular protein approach individually.

ABSTRACT

               Diabetes melitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by an increase in blood glucose levels caused by disruption of the pancreas in producing insulin. Alloxan is a substrate that can trigger the condition of hyperglycemia which can cause diabetes because of its toxic nature to pancreatic beta cells. Damage to pancreatic beta cells is caused by Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) which causes necrosis in the pancreatic beta cells. Soursop leaf extract (Annona muricata L.) has antioxidants such as flavonoids and tannins which can inhibit ROS increase.

               The aim of this study to find out about the effect of soursop leaf (Annona muricata Linn) extract in repaired to pancreatic tissue damage of male wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) induced by alloxan. This study used 24 male Wistar rats, divided into 3 groups : K(-) group that no treatment, K(+) group that induced by alloxan dose 150mg/kgBW and K(p) group that induced by alloxan dose 150mg/kgBW and given soursop leaf extract dose 150mg/kgBW. The result of this study showed that there was significant difference (p = 0.001) of pancreatic tissue damage measured by histopathologic score between group of no treatment rats compared to the group of rats induced by alloxan. There was a significant difference of pancreatic tissue damage measured by histopatology score group of rats induced by alloxan compared to group of rats induced by alloxan and given soursop leaf extract     So it can be concluded that the administration of alloxan significantly increases the pancreatic tissue damage and the administration of soursop leaf extract can improve pancreatic tissue damage measured by histopathology score because soursop leaf extract contains flavonoids and tannins which function as antioxidants.

Published: August 2020

Objective Substantial research has revealed cognitive function impairments in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). However, the relationship between MDD cognitive function impairment and brain activity is yet to be elucidated. This study aimed to reveal this relationship using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to extensively measure frontotemporal cortex function.Methods We recruited 18 inpatients with MDD and 22 healthy controls. Regional oxygenated hemoglobin changes (oxy-Hb) were measured during a verbal fluency task and its relationship to cognitive function was assessed. Cognitive function was assessed using the Japanese version of the Brief Assessment of Cognition in Schizophrenia.Results Compared to healthy controls, patients with MDD displayed poorer motor speed, attention and speed of information processing, and executive function. In the bilateral prefrontal and temporal surface regions, regional oxy-Hb changes were significantly lower in patients with MDD than in healthy individuals. Moreover, we observed a correlation between reduced activation in the left temporal region and poor motor speed in patients with MDD.Conclusion We suggest that reduced activation in the left temporal region in patients with MDD could be a biomarker of poor motor speed. Additionally, NIRS may be useful as a noninvasive, clinical measurement tool for assessing motor speed in these patients.

Published: August 2020

O objetivo deste estudo foi usar um cenário envolvendo pessoas com deficiência, seus familiares e estudantes de Odontologia para avaliar a percepção dos estudantes a respeito das necessidades destas pessoas. Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo transversal no qual participaram 60 estudantes de Odontologia matriculados na disciplina de Clínica Integrada Para Pacientes com Necessidades Especiais. Formaram-se grupos focais que receberam um questionário semiestruturado com questões que exploraram aspectos sobre o atendimento de pessoas com deficiência e da rotina destas pessoas. Na sequência utilizou-se um cenário no qual estudantes interagiram com pessoas com deficiência e seus familiares.  Na última etapa os grupos formularam hipóteses a respeito do atendimento destes pacientes. Os dados coletados nos três momentos foram agrupados em categorias e temas e analisados no software Atlas Ti. Os principais resultados obtidos foram agrupados em categorias de acordo com a percepção dos estudantes antes e depois da criação do cenário. Os dados obtidos após a análise qualitativa revelam que antes da criação do cenário os estudantes se colocaram no centro da discussão argumentando que atender pessoas com deficiência seria uma oportunidade para desenvolver suas habilidades, sem se preocupar com a pessoa com deficiência em si. Após a criação do cenário parece ter havido uma mudança importante na percepção dos estudantes acerca dessas pessoas e de suas famílias e as palavras respeito e empatia apareceram frequentemente nos textos produzidos pelos estudantes. Aproximar os estudantes da realidade vivida pela pessoa com deficiência e de sua família parece ser uma alternativa para educar o estudante de Odontologia.

Authors: Salomão Neto Benito Adelmo
Published: August 2020

O artigo buscou enquadrar o município de Uberlândia, estado de Minas Gerais, na hipótese do Leviatã de Brennan e Buchanan. A partir da crise fiscal que se abateu no município desde meados da presente década, buscou-se compreender as causas destes desequilíbrios orçamentários. Foi verificado após uma ampla análise dos dados, que tais problemas não se deram devido à queda de arrecadação. As evidências apontam para uma série de problemas estruturais, como a excessiva dependência de receitas transferidas causando ilusão fiscal, o avanço dos gastos públicos evidenciando o efeito Flypaper, além de captura de recursos públicos por grupos de interesse organizados no município. O artigo analisou o orçamento de Uberlândia entre 2005 e 2019, traçando um amplo diagnóstico dos problemas financeiros da Prefeitura e propondo algumas reformas que visem solucionar estes desequilíbrios.

The function of poetry is to help people in many different ways to overcome the challenges when they seem to have lost their lives. However, the present paper aims at  demonstrating  how does imagination  in Wallace Steven's(1879-1955) poetry offer skills and techniques which help understand better and cope with difficulties. However, two of Steven's poem are tackled in this paper:  "Thirteen Ways of  Looking At  Black Bird" and  '' Disillusion of Ten O'clock". Furthermore, the paper deals with the poem from a new critic  point of view. Accordingly, the  study concludes that  the poet's style of using imagery in many different ways is a modern way of coping with and understanding reality.

Theory evaluation in the age of cumulative science
Authors: Cristia Alejandrina , Tsuji Sho , Bergmann Christina
Published: August 2020

Theories are a key part of the scientific process. How should we evaluate theories against evidence? The two traditional and most widespread approaches use single studies and qualitative reviews to evaluate theories; more recently, large-scale replications are used. We argue here that none of these approaches as currently implemented fits in with cumulative science tenets. We propose instead the use of online and transparent Community-Augmented Meta-Analyses (CAMAs). These are cumulative and open because they are built using all available data, with mechanisms in place to prevent data overfitting and to statistically model methodological "noise". As a consequence, theory evaluation becomes a transparent, replicable endeavor. We provide counter-arguments for the most common complaints against using meta-analyses for theory evaluation. Finally, we come to conclude that CAMAs will highlight areas of uncertainty better than the alternative theory evaluation approaches, and could trigger a much needed shift towards a cumulative mindset both with respect to theory and data, leading us to do experiments and qualitative reviews differently.

This single stranded RNA virus used Angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) as a receptor for entry into the host cell. Overexpression of ACE2 is observed in hypertensive, diabetic and heart patients that make them prone to COVID-19 infection. All around the world, mitigations strategies were opted by the governments to minimize transmission of COVID-19 via the implementation of social distancing norms, wearing the facemasks, and spreading awareness using digital platforms. The lack of an approved drug treatment regimen, and non-availability of a vaccine, collectively posed a challenge for mankind to fight against SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. In this scenario, repurposing of existing drugs and old treatment options like convalescent plasma therapy can be the potential alternatives to treat the disease. The Drug repurposing provides a selection of drugs based on the scientific rationale and with a shorter cycle of clinical trials, the plasma therapy can be a good source of neutralizing antibody to provide passive immunity from COVID-19 recovered patients, In this review, we provide in-depth analysis on these two approaches currently opted all around the world to treat COVID-19 patients. For this we used “Boolean Operators” such as AND, OR & NOT to search relevant research articles/reviews from the PUBMED for the repurposed drugs and the convalescent plasma in COVID-19 treatment. The repurposed drugs like repurposed drugs like Chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine, Tenofovir, Remdesivir, Ribavirin, Darunavir, Oseltamivir, Arbidol (Umifenovir), Favipiravir, Anakinra, and Baricitinib are already being used or I trials to treat the COVID-19, and those belong to a diverse category such as anti-malarial/anti-parasitic, antiretroviral/anti-viral, anti-cancer or against rheumatoid arthritis. Although, the vaccine would be an ideal option for providing active immunity against the SARS-CoV-2, but considering current situation, the neutralizing antibody through plasma therapy and repurposed drugs are the most viable option against SARS-CoV-2.

Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic cancer (1). We sought to identify genes associated with enhanced survival in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) by comparing global gene expression profiles of tumors from women diagnosed with HGSC with the best and worst progression-free survival (2). We found significant differential expression of the gene encoding the receptor antagonist for the cytokine interleukin-1 (IL-1) (IL-1RN) when comparing tumor transcriptomes based on progression-free survival. IL-1RN was expressed at significantly lower levels in high-grade serous ovarian tumors of women with the longest progression-free survival.

Facet-Level Personality Development in the Transition to Adolescence: Maturity, Disruption, and Gender Differences
Authors: Brandes Cassandra M , Kushner Shauna C , Herzhoff Kathrin , Tackett Jennifer L
Published: August 2020

The transition to adolescence is marked by enormous change in social, biological, and personality development. Although accumulating evidence has offered insight into the nature of higher-order personality trait development during this period, much less is known about the development of lower-order personality traits, or “facets”. The current study employed a cohort- sequential longitudinal design to examine domain- and facet-level trajectories for mother- reported personality traits during the early adolescent transition. Personality trait domains and facets were assessed with the Inventory of Child Individual Differences – Short Form (Deal et al., 2007). Participants were 440 children followed at four annual timepoints from middle childhood (MAge = 9.97, SD = 0.81) to early adolescence (MAge = 13.11, SD = 0.84). Results of latent growth curve models showed substantial facet-level personality stability in this period, as well as small to moderate linear change in 13 of 15 facets. Gender differences in change were evident for 9 facets. Overall patterns suggested consistent increases in agreeableness facets with null to small gender differences. Neuroticism and openness to experience facet change was heterogeneous within each domain, but patterns were similar for boys and girls. Extraversion primarily decreased, though the magnitude and direction of change differed between facets and genders. Conscientiousness increased across all facets, but only among girls. These findings overall demonstrate a high degree of developmental consistency in facets within each domain as well as some notable differences. Further, this study contributes to a small and somewhat mixed evidence base for current theories of adolescent personality development.
Finding clusters of groups with measurement invariance: Unraveling intercept non-invariance with mixture multigroup factor analysis
Authors: De Roover Kim
Published: August 2020

Comparisons of latent constructs across groups are ubiquitous in behavioral research and, nowadays, often numerous groups are involved. Measurement invariance of the constructs across the groups is imperative for valid comparisons and can be tested by multigroup factor analysis. For many groups, metric invariance (invariant factor loadings) often holds, whereas scalar invariance (invariant intercepts) is rarely supported. Scalar invariance is a prerequisite for comparing latent means, however. One may inspect group-specific intercepts to pinpoint non-invariances, but this is a daunting task in case of many groups. This paper presents mixture multigroup factor analysis (MMG-FA) for clustering groups based on their intercepts. Clusters of groups with scalar invariance are obtained by imposing cluster-specific intercepts and invariant loadings whereas unique variances, factor means and factor (co)variances can differ between groups. Thus, MMG-FA ties down the number of intercepts to inspect and generates clusters of groups wherein latent means can be validly compared.
Statements about the Pervasiveness of Behaviour Require Data about the Pervasiveness of Behaviour
Authors: Speelman Craig , McGann Marek
Published: August 2020

Despite recent close attention to issues related to the reliability of psychological research (e.g., the replication crisis), issues of the validity of this research have not been considered to the same extent. This paper highlights an issue that calls into question the validity of the common research practice of studying samples of individuals, and using sample-based statistics to infer generalisations that are applied not only to the parent population, but to individuals. The lack of ergodicity in human data means that such generalizations are not justified. This problem is illustrated with respect to two common scenarios in psychological research that raise questions for the sorts of theories that are typically proposed to explain human behaviour and cognition. The paper presents a method of data analysis that requires closer attention to the range of behaviours exhibited by individuals in our research to determine the pervasiveness of effects observed in sample data. Such an approach to data analysis will produce results that are more in tune with the types of generalisations typical in reports of psychological research than mainstream analysis methods.

Expertise refers to outstanding skill or ability in a particular domain. In the domain of emotion, expertise refers to the observation that some people are better at a range of competencies related to understanding and experiencing emotions, and these competencies may help them lead healthier lives. These individual differences are represented by multiple constructs including emotional awareness, emotional clarity, emotional complexity, emotional granularity, and emotional intelligence. These constructs derive from different theoretical perspectives, highlight different competencies, and are operationalized and measured in different ways. The full set of relationships between these constructs has not yet been considered, hindering scientific progress and the translation of findings to aid mental and physical well-being. In this paper, we use a scoping review procedure to integrate these constructs within a shared conceptual space. Scoping reviews provide a principled means of synthesizing large and diverse literatures in a transparent fashion, enabling the identification of similarities as well as gaps and inconsistencies across constructs. Using domain-general accounts of expertise as a guide, we build a unifying framework for expertise in emotion and apply this to constructs that describe how people understand and experience their own emotions. Our approach offers opportunities to identify potential mechanisms of expertise in emotion, encouraging future research on those mechanisms and on educational or clinical interventions.

To what extent does a psychosocial intervention (PSI) improve return-to-work rates for welfare-receiving jobseekers who differ in ethnicity, length of unemployment, physical location, gender, and readiness for change? Two large-scale studies (Study 1: 2,459 jobseekers, Study 2: 20,057 jobseekers) across a diverse Australian sample sought to assess factors that moderated the efficacy on return-to-work outcomes of a PSI program (comprising 31 evidence-based exercises that are purported to build psychological states such as self-efficacy, resilience, and well-being) when compared to a government-funded treatment as usual (TAU) re-employment service. Study 1 showed that the PSI was much more effective than TAU (20.4% increase in job placements), but only for jobseekers who were not already proactively engaged in seeking a job. Study 2 added a one-to-one intervention to the original group PSI workshop, informed by the transtheoretical (or stage of change) model and was shown to improve job placement rates regardless of stage of jobseeking readiness, gender, age and ethnicity (41.9% increase in job placements overall). However, the intervention was not effective for those living in remote areas. The results have implications for employment services aiming to deliver better return-to-work outcomes by segmenting and personalizing support for unemployed citizens.
Structure in Context: A Morphological View of Whole Network Performance
Authors: Kim Dennie , Funk Russell , Zaheer Aks
Published: August 2020

Network perspectives in organizational research have focused primarily on how the embeddedness of actors shapes individual, or nodal, outcomes. Against this backdrop, a growing number of researchers have begun to adopt a wider lens on organizational networks, shifting the focus to collective, or whole network, performance. Yet, efforts to understand the relationship between whole network structure and whole network performance have produced conflicting findings, which suggests that a different approach may be needed. Drawing on macrostructural sociology, we propose a "whole network morphology" framework, which argues the whole network structure-performance relationship is contingent on other fundamental—relational and cultural—whole network dimensions. Subsequently, we undertake an application of our framework, through which we demonstrate how a morphological view helps address conflicting findings on the structure-performance relationship. Leveraging data on 350 million physician relationships, we study 250 whole networks known as Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs). Consistent with previous work, we do not find a clear association between structural connectedness and performance. However, we find that a more disconnected network structure is associated with negative ACO performance when the relational strength of network ties is high. We also find evidence of better ACO performance in the presence of a physician cultural orientation when the whole network is more connected.
