In recent years’ machine learning is playing a vital role in our everyday lifelike, it can help us to route somewhere, find something for what we aren’t aware of, or can schedule appointments in seconds. Looking at the other side of the coin besides machine learning Mobile phones are equivocating and competing in the same field. If we take an optimistic view, by applying machine learning in our mobile devices, we can make our lives better and even move society forward. Image Classification is the most common and trending topic of machine learning. Among several different types of models in deep learning, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN’s) have intimated high performance on image classification which are made out of various handling layers to gain proficiency with the portrayals of information with numerous unique levels, are the best AI models as of late. Here, we have trained a simple CNN and completed the experiments on the dataset called Fashion Mnist and Flower Recognition, and also analyzed the techniques of integrating the trained model in the Android platform.
Trouble is Brewing: Exploring the Relationship Between Time of Coffee Consumption and Short-Term Memory Performance
Authors: Shwom Rayanna , Breig Alycia
Published: November 2020

Many high school students drink coffee either in the morning before a test to feel more awake or the night before a test so they can stay up later to study. However, it is unclear if it is more beneficial to a student’s memory, and therefore test performance, to drink coffee at night or in the morning. A case study experiment was performed in which six participants underwent two trials. In each trial, participants consumed coffee at varying times before taking a short-term memory test the following morning. Based on these test scores, the time at which coffee had the most beneficial effect on memory test performance was determined for each participant. It was found that the time of day that caffeine is consumed affects each high school student’s short-term memories differently based on personal factors, such as caffeine sensitivity. Although limited, these findings add to the field of research and have practical implications in terms of test performance for high school students.
An Idiopathic Dalliance in Television, Para-social Relationships, and Consumption: A Study of Pop-Culture Television Nutrition and the Bandwagon Effect
Authors: Sycoff Leah , Cunningham Charese
Published: November 2020

Although it has previously been established that television causes unhealthy eating habits, uncertainty remains as to how this occurs. This study researches the parameters of viewers forming an emotional investment with the characters in pop-culture television and subsequently becoming influenced by the negative nutritional habits that are promoted. This influence is a form of cognitive bias called bandwagon effect. In context, it can be described as a psychological phenomenon in which the viewer starts to eat unhealthy foods as a result of having formed a para-social bond with television characters and, regardless of previous knowledge and practices, the viewer begins to copy the television characters’ food intake regiment. In order to prove this argument, a correlational study was run. Participants, female adolescents and early adults (the most prominent demographic of the show), completed the required consent form preceding survey part one, then watched several episodes of the pop-culture television series Gilmore Girls, known for the aesthetically pleasing protagonists’ plentiful consumption of unhealthy food. The participants of the study had unhealthy and healthy food options displayed within grasp while viewing and at completion of the viewing filled out survey part two which asked about food choices. A week later, participants received survey part three to fill out and return to the researcher. Upon receiving the results, data analysis was performed, and the outcome was deemed statistically insignificant even though the hypothesis proved correct. It was found that participants had worse nutrition after watching the pop-culture television series.
A Violation of “One Country, Two Systems:” Chinese Encroachment on Hong Kong’s Democratic Autonomy
Authors: Selig Ryan , Gagne Bridget , MacDonald Nick
Published: November 2020

Since 1997 Hong Kong has operated as a Special Administrative Region (SAR) of the People’s Republic of China under a policy known as “One Country, Two Systems.” An analysis of the critical period of 1997-2020 (which came to a close with the 2020 National Security Law) demonstrates the ways in which the People’s Republic of China has used its influence to limit the democratic autonomy and ideological independence of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. By breaking down China’s actions into three distinct sections of politics, media, and education this review addresses the many layers and facets of Chinese encroachment on the freedoms of the people of Hong Kong. In the political sector, China has worked to limit democratic representation in Hong Kong via interference in the executive, legislative, and judicial branches of Hong Kong’s government. In the field of media, China has used direct and indirect editorial action as well as economic influence to limit negative perceptions of Beijing. In the education system, China has taken a top-down approach to instill Chinese patriotism in Hong Kong’s curriculum to expand the support for China in Hong Kong’s youth. Tracking these violations of Hong Kong’s autonomy and also the people’s response demonstrates that although China continues to push the “One Country” aspect of the “One Country, Two Systems” policy, the people of Hong Kong will continue to fight for their freedoms as long as they have a voice.

Published: November 2020

Traditional media has portrayed both genders in a biased manner, displaying differences in roles and personalities; this biased portrayal has a variety of impacts on people’s lives and careers. The aim of this paper is to analyze interactions between each gender on the show Cutthroat Kitchen through a content analysis to discover whether or not gender impacts interaction types and frequencies. Ultimately, this paper has concluded that gender does affect interactions on the show due to the differing frequencies for various types of interactions such as insults and threats. Furthermore, the frequency of each gender initiating interactions differs along with the connotation of said interactions. These findings of this study have implications on the field of social psychology and the casting of reality T.V. shows, especially food-based ones.
Investigating the Impact of Serum on the Growth of TM7x and Host XH001
Authors: Khomski Alice , Pugach-Gordon Megan
Published: November 2020

Nanosynbacter lyticus strain TM7x is an ultra-small, parasitic bacterium that lives on the surface of host, Actinomyces odontolyticus strain XH001. Studies have reported a considerable increase in TM7x abundance in patients with periodontal disease, and this association warrants further investigation. Interestingly, gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) flow also increases during periodontitis. The prevalence of TM7x during periodontal disease may thus result from attraction to GCF. However, GCF is not commercially available for testing. Since its composition is similar to that of fetal bovine serum (FBS), FBS was tested instead. The objectives of this project are to determine whether FBS promotes the growth of TM7x and XH001 and to develop the optimal culture medium for analysis of these microbes. TM7x/XH001 co-culture and XH001 monoculture were separately cultivated in media (RPMI and FMC) supplemented with FBS. Cultures grown in the same, non-supplemented media served as control samples. Serial dilutions were performed and spotted onto plates at several time points, and samples were quantified in colony-forming units (CFU)/mL. 2% FBS FMC induced a significant increase in the growth of culture samples, as compared to control FMC (p = 0.0140 and p = 0.0424 for the co-culture and monoculture, respectively). Furthermore, microscopy revealed a heightened presence of TM7x in FBS-supplemented media in comparison to control media. These findings signify that FBS is an effective supplement to RPMI and FMC, both of which support TM7x/XH001 growth. Overall, the utilization of these media with FBS can ensure optimal cultivation of TM7x for investigation of its potential pathogenicity.

Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench commonly known as lady finger or okra, is a popular tropical plant that produces green, slender, finger-shaped fruits. The fruits are commonly harvested when young and consumed as green vegetable. The study primarily investigated the morphological, anatomical and physiological changes that occur in the lady finger or okra var. 'Smooth Green' whole fruit, its pericarp and seeds. Based on these data, the fruit's optimal stage of maturity for harvest was determined. Fruits were collected at different developmental stages starting at 3 days after anthesis (DAA) and every 3 days thereafter until th the 24 day when further growth in size was no longer evident. Morphological parameters were measured in situ using intact fruits. Fresh and dry weights were measured using destructive samples. Histological procedures were used to examine anatomical features of the pericarp. The Alkali Trapping Method was used to monitor respiratory activity of the developing fruits. The okra plants started to flower at 48 days after sowing. A tiny fruit was formed immediately the day after anthesis and continued to grow in size and weight reaching full mature size at day 24. Growth in fresh weight of the whole fruit, the pericarp and the seed followed a double sigmoidal pattern while seed growth was linear. Young fruits had high moisture but low dry matter content while older ones had low moisture and high dry matter content. Young fruits were light green in color, more rounded in diameter and more hairy while older ones were deep green in color, became increasingly ribbed and glossy or less hairy as they matured. Anatomically, young pericarp had smaller and tightly compact cells becoming larger and bulkier with increasing age. Based on the results, okra is best harvested and consumed as fresh green vegetable when it is young at 9 DAA, when it is light green and immature, when it is about 16.8 cm in length, about 1.9 cm in diameter, has high moisture content of about 92%, when its pericarp tissues and seeds are soft, translucent and spongy and has lower respiration rate which ensures longer shelf life and good eating quality

Authors:   Department of Horticulture, Visayas State University, Visca, Baybay City, Leyte, Philippines, Caintic Reyna Mae , Salas Rosario
Published: November 2020

Hydroponics is a system of growing plants in nutrient solutions which could be from organic or inorganic sources with or without the use of aggregate medium. It is an alternative way of growing vegetables that would overcome problems encountered in conventional farming like soil acidity, alkalinity, and soil-borne diseases. This study was conducted to evaluate the growth, yield, and profitability of ampalaya varieties grown under aggregate hydroponic systems using different nutrient solutions. The experiment was laid out in a Factorial Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications using ampalaya hybrids as factor A and nutrient solutions as factor B. The two ampalaya hybrids (Galaxy and Jade Star) applied with commercial solution showed significantly greater values in terms of horticultural parameters, yield, and yield components. Between the two ampalaya hybrids, no significant effect was observed in most of the characteristics except on the weight of roots. Galaxy had heavier roots compared to Jade Star. Consistent superiority of plants applied with commercial solution was manifested in most parameters. The overall results revealed that production of ampalaya hybrid using an aggregate hydroponic system is profitable.

Published: November 2020

The study aimed to optimize the formulation of flavored toned milk beverage using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). A 7-variable 8-run 3 Plackett-Burman (PB) design and a 3 fractional factorial experiment following Central Composite Design (CCD) were used for the variable screening experiment and the optimization study, respectively. Sensory attributes like color, aroma, mouthfeel, taste, sweetness, and general acceptability were the response parameters considered. Variable screening revealed that sugar, mango, and vanilla flavors were the three factors that significantly affected the sensory attributes of the product. These selected variables were then used in the optimization study. The levels of the independent variables significantly affected the color, sweetness, and general acceptability of the product. The levels satisfying the optimum region were: p < 0.05. 0-14.8 %w/v sugar, 0-0.8%w/v mango, and 0-0.4 %w/v vanilla. The sugar level of 13.6% (w/v), vanilla level of 0.12% (w/v), and 0% (w/v) mango level was verified as the optimum combination for flavored toned milk. Results revealed that among the responses, only the values of the actual and predicted aroma acceptability of the product were not significantly different. This implies that the proposed model equation was only fit for predicting the aroma acceptability of the product. Observed acceptability had a higher rating than the predicted value, indicating that the panelists may have improved their evaluation with less confusion when there were only two samples presented. The optimum formulation of flavored toned milk and the commercial chocolate milk were subjected to consumer evaluation to assess the acceptability of the beverage and to evaluate the preference of consumers between the newly developed and the existing milk product in the local market. The optimum formulation was accepted among 88% of the respondents while 90% liked the commercial sample. Chi-square test results showed no significant difference between the two. This implies that the optimum formulation can compete with the existing commercial product in terms of sensory acceptability. A liter of commercial milk costs Php 80 while the optimum formulation (sugar level of 13.6% w/v, vanilla level of 0.12% w/v, and mango level of 0% w/v) only costs Php 76 per liter.

centre, Maharashtra
Authors: Gondhali Gajanan , Deshmukh J K , Kundalwal Ashish , TAKALKAR ANANT
Published: November 2020

ntroduction: CKD has turned a major cause of morbidity and
mortality. The prevalence of peripheral neuropathy is directly
proportional to duration and severity of CKD. Peripheral
neuropathy becomes evident after the patient reaches stage
4 CKD, but electrophysiological evidences occurs earlier. NCS
is an important means of evaluating the functional integrity of
peripheral nerves and has implications regarding clinical course
and prognosis.
Objectives: To study electrophysiological findings of peripheral
neuropathy in CKD patients
Methodology: The present study was a cross sectional;
descriptive study was conducted in October 2016 to October
2018. Data analysed by using SPSS 23.0 version. Clinical and
neurological examinations were done and blood investigations
were performed following which NCS was done. Results: Out
of 90 subjects, majority were from 45-54 years age group (26).
70% were male and 30% were females. Total 10 (11.11%)
patients showed pure sensory type of PN. Total 47 (52.22%)
patients showed sensory-motor type of PN. sensory-motor type
of PN was the predominant type (52.22%) found in study
followed by pure sensory type of PN (11.11%). Pure axonal
sensory motor pattern of PN found in 15 (25%) patients in preHD group, 11 (36.66%) patients in HD group. The difference
between the pre-HD and HD groups were statistically significant
for the median nerve amplitude, common peroneal nerve CV,
posterior tibial nerve CV, posterior tibial nerve distal latency
and sural nerve distal latency (p < 0.05).
Conclusion:Peripheral neuropathy is very common in CKD,
more common in dialysis patients as compared to predialysis
patients. It’s frequency and severity increase as the duration
of disease and stage of CKD increases. Sensory motor type of
neuropathy is more common than pure sensory type of
neuropathy.Pure axonal sensory motor and mixed (axonal +
demyelinating) sensory motor neuropathy are common
patterns of PN in CKD.

El estudio consistió en comparar el desarrollo poblacional de dos especies de lombriz Eisenia fetida y Eisenia andreí en tres tipos de sustrato: estiércol de bovino, estiércol de conejo y una mezcla de los dos. Se utilizaron contenedores con un kilo de sustrato, con 20 lombrices. El diseño experimental fue un arreglo factorial con bloques al azar. Las variables consideradas fueron número de capullos, lombrices jóvenes y adultas para la composición de la población y longitud de la lombriz, peso de la lombriz y peso del humus para el rendimiento. Los datos, fueron vaciados en una hoja de cálculo de Microsoft Excel. Se realizó una comparación de medias de Tukey (p≤ 0.05). Los resultados indicaron que el tratamiento T1 (Eisenia andrei + estiércol de bovino) y el tratamiento T4 (Eisenia fetida + estiércol de bovino) fueron los mejores en cuestiones reproductivas y presentaron la mejor composición poblacional (capullos, juveniles y adultas). Los tratamientos T2 (Eisenia andrei + estiércol de conejo) y el tratamiento T5 (Eisenia fetida + estiércol de conejo), presentaron las cantidades más bajas de lombrices, pero resultaron los mejores tratamientos en cuanto ganancia de peso y longitud promedio de la lombriz. Por lo tanto el mejor sustrato fue el de la mezcla de estiércol de bovino más el estiércol de conejo, ya que reúne los requerimientos de la lombriz, para que la especie se desarrolle y mantenga una composición equilibrada de la población.
A Statistical Approach for Voiced Speech Detection
Authors: Mohanty Mihir Narayan , Routray Aurobinda , Kabisatpathy Prithviraj
Published: November 2020

Detection of Voice in speech signal is a challenging problem in developing high-performance systems used in noisy environments. In this paper, we present an efficient algorithm for robust voiced speech detection and for the application to variable-rate speech coding. The key idea of the algorithm is considering speech energy and zero crossings rate (ZCR) information simultaneously when processing speech signals and finding the end point of the signal. Next to it a decision rule and a background noise statistics estimator, by applying a statistical model. A robust decision rule is derived from the generalized likelihood ratio test (LRT) by assuming that the noise statistics are known a priori. The algorithm is most efficient for the time-varying noise. According to our simulation results, the proposed algorithm shows significantly better performance in low signal-to-noise ratio and in noisy environments.

Pendidikan dalam Perspektif Hadis
Authors: Siddik Hasbi
Published: November 2020

This paper will explore education in the perspective of Hadith, both the meaning, the nature, and the practice of education, as well as its urgency. In the books of Hadis (al-kutub al-tis’ah) there are many themes that talk about education. In the books it is mentioned a lot of terms tarbiyah, ta'lim, ta'dib, and other terms associated with it such as ‘ilm, al-aql, al-fikr, al-hikmah, and so on. The number of Hadis proves that the Prophet during his life did pay special attention to the issue of education. The search for an educational theme in the Hadis is a thematic study method (syarh al-mawdhui). The results of this study found that there are at least five themes in the Hadis on education: 1) the primacy of education (educating children); 2) the urgency of teaching science (in education); 3) the reward obtained for the learners; 4) fitrah (for children) to learn in education; 5) education from an early age (the obligation of parents to educate their children in worship or praying)
The Effect of a Cardiovascular Self-Management Support Program on Preventing Cardiovascular Complication Behaviors and Clinical Outcomes in the Elderly with Poorly Controlled Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Indonesia
Authors: HISNI Dayan , CHINNAWONG Tippamas , THANIWATTANANON Ploenpit
Published: November 2020

Elderly people with poorly controlled type 2 DM often develop cardiovascular disease (CVD) as a major complication. Prevention can be managed by the action of preventing cardiovascular complication behaviors (PCCB) which consist of a DM and healthy heart diet, physical exercise, taking medication regularly, and ceasing smoking. The cardiovascular self-management support program (CSSP) facilitates successful and improved PCCB and clinical outcomes in the elderly with poorly controlled type 2 DM. A quasi-experimental study was conducted to find out the effectiveness of CSSP on PCCB and clinical outcomes in elderly with poorly controlled type 2 DM. Fifty-nine elders with poorly controlled type 2 DM were randomly recruited and divided into an experimental and a control group. Of these, 30 participants in the experimental group received the CSSP and the usual care whereas the control group only received the usual care. PCCB was measured by the prevention of cardiovascular complication behaviors questionnaire (PCCBQ), while clinical outcomes were measured by clinical devices provided by the Public Health Center. An independent t-test was conducted to determine the effect of the program between groups and a paired t-test was used to report the effect of the program within the group. The results showed that the mean score of the PCCB in the experimental group was significantly higher than those in the control group after participating in the program (p < .05) and improved the mean scores of the clinical outcomes except for the diastolic blood pressure (p > .05). The CSSP in this study clearly indicates positive effects on improving the PCCB and some clinical outcomes in the elderly with poorly controlled type 2 DM.

utilização da reprodução humana assistida e seus efeitos no Direito de Família e Direito Sucessório sob a ótica do princípio da dignidade da pessoa humana
Authors: Amaro Mylene Manfrinato dos Reis , Zenni Alessandro Severino Vallér
Published: November 2020

A presente pesquisa tem por objetivo discutir sobre a reprodução humana assistida e suas consequências jurídicas frente ao Direito de Família e Sucessões, sob a ótica do princípio da dignidade da pessoa humana, principalmente no que tange às relações de parentesco e aos direitos sucessórios do filho, o que faz com que o conceito de filiação e de alguns institutos do direito sucessório sejam repensados. A respeito da temática, destaca-se que a Constituição Federal de 1988 possui como fundamento da democracia e pressuposto de respeito entre os indivíduos a dignidade da pessoa humana. Além disso, o ordenamento brasileiro consagra, além da filiação biológica e jurídica, a filiação civil ou a socioafetiva. E é justamente sob este prisma que o caráter biológico da filiação abre espaço também à afetividade, estendendo o direito de igualdade no âmbito dos direitos sucessórios à filiação adotiva, inclusive àqueles advindos fora da constância do casamento e aos gerados por meio de técnicas de reprodução humana assistida. Por isso, há proibição de qualquer tipo de discriminação ou diferenciação entre os filhos. Nesta perspectiva, é necessário que o Direito de Família e Sucessões seja aplicado de forma que atenda não só aos anseios daqueles que querem ter realizado o seu projeto parental, mas também e, principalmente, que assegure o melhor interesse da criança gerada através das técnicas de reprodução assistida.
Sobre o dever de cumprir o ordenamento jurídico e a atuação do juiz
Authors: Marques Paulo Henrique Resende , Pedra Adriano Sant’Ana
Published: November 2020

O artigo objetiva defender a possibilidade de o juiz praticar um ato de desobediência civil quando uma norma válida for contrária a questões de consciência. Serão expostas as três modalidades de desobediência civil segundo Ronald Dworkin (baseada na integridade, na justiça e na política). Apenas o primeiro tipo de desobediência civil poderia ser aplicada pelo magistrado, pois, ao mesmo tempo em que a desobediência civil ocorre contra leis inválidas (de tal maneira que um juiz teria poder para não aplicá-las ao exercer um controle de constitucionalidade, não sendo, então, desobediência), a baseada na integridade ocorre por questões pessoais de consciência, sendo que o fato de a convicção pessoal de alguém proibir determinada conduta legal independe do poder que a emanou. Serão mostrados alguns conceitos de Dworkin para justificar a desobediência civil pelo juiz, mas não para entendê-la como uma atitude ideal, já que este autor é contrário à discricionariedade judicial.
Iniciativa popular estadual no Brasil
Authors: Sgarbossa Luís Fernando , Bittencourt Laura Cabrelli
Published: November 2020

A iniciativa legislativa popular ou autolegislação, apresentando-se como uma forma de exercício direto de poder pelo povo, é instituição relativamente recente no sistema constitucional brasileiro e tema relevante no âmbito do Direito Constitucional. Apesar de razoavelmente estudada em nível federal, a iniciativa popular estadual ainda é pouco explorada pela literatura nacional. O presente estudo, resultado parcial de projeto de pesquisa em andamento, examina tal temática a partir de pesquisa básica, de levantamento, quantitativa, qualitativa e comparativa. Após uma análise de tal instituto nas 27 normas fundamentais subnacionais em vigor no país, em nível estadual e distrital, foi possível constatar que todas as constituições estaduais e a Lei Orgânica do Distrito Federal prevêem iniciativa popular de lei; que dezenove Estados contemplam iniciativa popular de Emendas à Constituição; que dez Estados adotam o mesmo procedimento para ambas as espécies em termos de iniciativa, em termos dispersão, quóruns e formalidades exigidas; que oito Estados, no entanto, estabelecem critérios distintos para o exercício do referido direito quanto à iniciativa voltada à produção de normas constitucionais ou infraconstitucionais. A partir dos resultados da pesquisa foi possível verificar razoável grau de inovação no âmbito da iniciativa popular por parte dos constituintes estaduais, notadamente no que diz respeito ao estabelecimento de modalidade de iniciativa inexistente em nível federal, a saber, a iniciativa popular de Emendas à Constituição. Foi possível evidenciar significativo grau de autonomia do constituinte estadual, em disposições relativas a regime prioritário ou favorecido de tramitação da espécie legislativa em questão; a criação de instituições inovadoras, como ini ciativa popular de CPI e veto popular; a previsão de referendo e plebiscito por iniciativa popular, a previsão de iniciativa popular específica em matéria orçamentária e financeira e iniciativa popular reforçada por consulta popular, entre outros aspectos.

Anemia yang dialami remaja putri akan berdampak lebih serius, mengingat mereka adalah para calon ibu yang akan hamil dan melahirkan seorang bayi, sehingga memperbesar risiko kematian ibu melahirkan, bayi lahir prematur dan berat bayi lahir rendah (BBLR). Anemia dapat dihindari dengan konsumsi makanan tinggi zat besi, asam folat, vitamin A, vitamin C dan zink, dan pemberian tablet tambah darah (TTD). Pemerintah memiliki program rutin terkait pendistribusian TTD bagi wanita usia subur (WUS), termasuk remaja dan ibu hamil.

Banyak faktor yang berhubungan dengan perilaku konsumsi makanan pada remaja, salah satunya adalah pengetahuan, Pengetahuan  remaja  tentang  anemia  defisiensi  besi  akan berpengaruh  terhadap  sikap  dan  perilaku  remaja  dalam  pemilihan  makanan  dan selanjutnya akan berpengaruh terhadap keadaan gizi remaja termasuk status anemia defisiensi besi. Oleh karena itu diperlukan informasi masalah gizi pada remaja serta fakor-faktor  yang  mempengaruhinya.  Informasi  ini  sangat  berguna  sebagai  dasar penetapan strategi  program  perbaikan  kesehatan  dan  gizi  pada  kelompok  remaja (Mubin Halim, 2007).

Berdasarkan hal diatas, pelaksana abdimas merasa penting untuk melaksanakan kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat dengan judul “edukasi kesehatan tentang resiko anemia terhadap kesehatan reproduksi remaja putri Di GOR Candrabaga Kota Bekasi tahun 2019”

Studi yang dilakukan WHO di 55 rumah sakit di 14 negara diseluruh dunia juga menunjukkan bahwa (8,7%) pasien rumah sakit menderita infeksi selama menjalani perawatan di rumah sakit. Sementara di Negara berkembang, diperkirakan lebih dari (40%) pasien di rumah sakit terserang infeksi nosokomial. Penelitian yang dilakukan di 11 rumah sakit di DKI Jakarta pada tahun 2010 menunjukkan bahwa (9,8%) pasien rawat inap mendapat infeksi yang baru selama di rawat. Tingginya frekuensi kontak dengan darah penderita akan meningkatkan risiko terjadinya infeksi pada tenaga kesehatan. Penelitian yang dilakukan terhadap 24.000 tenaga kesehatan di rumah sakit selama 3 tahun menunjukkan bahwa insiden kontak darah (exposure rate) 3,5 per 100 pekerja per tahun. Studi awal yang dilakukan peneliti pada bulan September tahun 2013 dengan melakukan wawancara terbuka kepada Bidan Kelurahan Setiawargi Kecamatan Tamansari Kota Tasikmalaya diperoleh informasi bahwa masih ada kejadian cross infection yang terjadi pada ibu hamil yang disebabkan karena penggunaan alat-alat yang tidak steril, dalam hal ini penggunaan termometer. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui perbandingan proses dekontaminasi termometer antara yang menggunakan Alkohol 70% dengan Larutan Klorin, Air Sabun dan Air DTT pada ibu hamil trimester III di Kelurahan Setiawargi Kecamatan Tamansari Kota Tasikmalaya.

Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah eksperimen, dengan rancangan acak lengkap. Penelitian ini telah dilaksanakan di Kelurahan Setiawargi Kecamatan Tamansari  Kota  Tasikmalaya,  pada  bulan  Desember  Tahun 2013. Besar sampel sebanyak 2 orang yang diambil dengan teknik Purposive Sampling.  Instrumen penelitian ini menggunakan termometer yang telah dikalibrasi, lembar observasi, media agar dan mikroskop.

Hasil Penelitian menunjukkan bahwa termometer baru yang akan digunakan terdapat bakteri jumlah bakteri setelah digunakan pada ketiak ibu hamil trimester III responden A pada temp 1 sebanyak 1077 koloni/cm2 dan temp 2 sebanyak 1923 koloni/cm2. Sedangkan pada ibu hamil trimester III responden B pada temp 1 sebanyak 4619 koloni/cm2 dan pada temp II sebanyak 1000 koloni/cm2. Terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan proses dekontaminasi termometer antara yang menggunakan alkohol 70% dengan larutan klorin, air sabun, dan air DTT pada ibu hamil trimester III di Kelurahan Setiawargi Kecamatan Tamansari Kota Tasikmalaya periode Nopember-Desember tahun 2014 (p = 0,04). Direkomendasikan petugas kesehatan/ bidan dalam mensterilkan alat-alat kesehatan dapat menggunakan alkohol 70%, karena dapat efektif menghilangkan bakteri, serta membuat SOP nya.
A dimensão causal-explicativa dos tipos ideais: a contribuição metodológica de Max Weber para a sociologia contemporânea
Authors: Albert Gert
Published: November 2020

O artigo propõe uma leitura e atualização do conceito weberiano de tipo ideal a partir do conceito de non statemente view de Roland Giere. Conforme este último, teorias consistem em modelos teóricos e hipóteses. Da mesma, os tipos ideais de Weber não consistem de proposições substantivas, mas de idealizações teóricas não falsificáveis das quais derivam, contudo, hipóteses para serem falseadas ou confirmadas. O estatuto epistemológico dos tipos ideais weberianos não consiste em proposições descritivo-causais, mas de definições. Dessa forma logramos não apenas uma nova interpretação do legado epistemológico weberiano, mas também abrimos caminho para sua interlocução com a atual filosofia da ciência.  Palavras-chave: Max Weber; Ronald Giere; Tipos Ideais; Non Statement-Views.
¿Cómo se incorpora el cuidado en las políticas públicas educacionales? Un análisis documental 1991-2019
Authors: Winkler Müller María Inés , Jorquera Martínez Carolina Paz , Cortés Concha Margarita Ester , Vargas Canales Victoria Ignacia
Published: November 2020

Con base en la perspectiva teórica de la ética del cuidado a partir de la teoría fundada, se presenta los resultados de la primera etapa de un proyecto mayor cuyo objetivo central es reconstruir y comprender las lógicas y acciones características que las comunidades educativas reconocen como prevención de problemas psicosociales, promoción del bienestar y construcción de comunidades de cuidado. Se aplicó un diseño exploratorio-interpretativo para realizar un análisis documental de 24 leyes educativas y 22 Planes Anuales de Educación Municipal de la Provincia de Santiago [PADEM], estas fueron categorizadas tras un doble análisis, primero deductivo y luego inductivo, emergiendo cuatro categorías centrales: referencias al cuidado, prácticas de cuidado, quién cuida y a quién se cuida. El concepto de cuidado está asociado principalmente a la buena convivencia, se cuida primordialmente a estudiantes y los agentes de cuidado son más diversos. Respecto de las prácticas, destaca el énfasis puesto en lo que está prohibido, como la violencia escolar y la discriminación arbitraria. En los documentos más recientes emergen como tema la prevención de conductas autolesivas y del consumo de alcohol y drogas.
Análisis de las estrategias discursivas empleadas en la construcción de discurso antifeminista en redes sociales
Authors: Bonet-Martí Jordi
Published: November 2020

El antifeminismo se ha convertido en un discurso cada vez más presente en las redes sociales; sin embargo, son todavía pocas las investigaciones que aborden su desarrollo en el área iberoamericana. Este artículo tiene por finalidad dar cuenta de las prácticas discursivas empleadas por el antifeminismo para asociar las movilizaciones feministas del 8 de marzo a la expansión de la pandemia de la COVID-19 en España. Para ello, se desarrolla un análisis crítico del discurso de las publicaciones realizadas en Twitter durante los meses de marzo y abril de 2020 con el fin de visibilizar e identificar las estrategias empleadas para establecer dicha asociación. Del análisis realizado, se evidencian las similitudes y diferencias entre el discurso antifeminista tradicional de base religiosa y las nuevas formas de antifeminismo vinculadas a las opciones de derecha populista, y se infiere que este nuevo antifeminismo se articula como un contramovimiento que hace un uso estratégico de las retóricas de la intransigencia y de los mecanismos de propagación del rumor a fin de fundamentar prácticas desdemocratizadoras.
Reinvención de la vida cotidiana en mujeres cucuteñas en tiempos de Covid-19
Authors: Parada Rico Doris Amparo , Zambrano Plata Gloria Esperanza
Published: November 2020

Se realiza un acercamiento a la vida cotidiana, en relación a las prácticas, relacionamientos sociales y subjetividades teniendo en cuenta perspectivas teóricas de la sociología, entre ellas de Agnes Heller y Norbert Elías. El objetivo propuesto es indagar en las transformaciones de la vida cotidiana en la mujer cucuteña durante el periodo de aislamiento en la pandemia por Covid-19. Se aplicó la teoría fundamentada como método analítico en el marco de un estudio cualitativo con enfoque fenomenológico en el que participaron 15 mujeres. Los resultados, a partir de entrevistas a profundidad, señalan siete categorías generales y una central que dan cuenta de la construcción de una nueva cotidianidad, donde se acentúan las prácticas para afrontar la situación económica, trasegar entre la necesidad y el temor al contagio, y adaptar espacios y tiempos paralelos para el trabajo, el cuidado, estudio y recreación; se van dando formas de relacionarse en la virtualidad con la familia y otros contextos;  finalmente, emerge la resignificación de valores e intersubjetividades que develan la añoranza por la existencia, la presencia del otro y el valor del ambiente.
