Authors: Asmuni Shahariah , Mhd. Khalili Jamaliah , Hussin Nur Bashirah , Mohd Zain Zahariah
Published: March 2018

In 2011, Malaysia introduced the No Plastic Bag Day program where stores charge a levy of MYR0.20 (USD0.06) on ach plastic bag used. Based on observations, participation in the program is moderate, with 47.7% of consumers willingly paid the levy. Those who bring their own bags are mostly female, Malay and Chinese customers. Consumers in the central region tend to avoid the levy. Based on findings of study, the NPBD program is 52.3% effective. In order to discourage the use of plastic bags, the government may need to reconsider the amount of levy charged on consumers.

Published: March 2018

Understanding environmental conditions of neighbourhoods can play a critical role in maintaining social interactions among residents. This research is carried out to assess the effect of street permeability on the degree of social cohesion among residents in a residential neighbourhood in Penang, Malaysia. A total of 250 households participated in the study. The findings indicate that permeability can account for a significant proportion of the variance in residents’ social cohesion. Residents living in less permeable streets are more likely to have a high social cohesion with their neighbours. The results further support the defensible space concept which advocates closed streets.Keywords: Permeability; social cohesion; road type; residential neighbourhoodeISSN 2398-4295 © 2018.

The Efficacy of a Web-Based Screening and Brief Intervention for Reducing Alcohol Consumption Among Japanese Problem Drinkers: Protocol for a Single-Blind Randomized Controlled Trial (Preprint)
Authors: Hamamura Toshitaka , Suganuma Shinichiro , Takano Ayumi , Matsumoto Toshihiko , Shimoyama Haruhiko
Published: March 2018

BACKGROUND

The literature shows that computer-delivered interventions with personalized normative feedback can reduce problem drinking for up to 6 months in the West. Meanwhile, no studies have been conducted to examine the effects of such interventions among Japanese problem drinkers. Possible moderators associated with effectiveness of the intervention need to be also explored.

OBJECTIVE

The purpose of this study is to conduct a trial and examine the efficacy of a brief intervention with personal normative feedback and psychoeducation on several measures of alcohol consumption among Japanese problem drinkers. Additionally, this study will examine whether the level of alcohol use disorder and beliefs about the physical and psychological outcomes of drinking moderate the effect of the intervention on outcome measures.

METHODS

This study will conduct a single-blind, 2-armed randomized controlled trial. Japanese adults with an Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test score of 8 or higher will be enrolled in the trial. Participants allocated to the intervention group will receive the intervention immediately after the baseline measurements, and participants allocated to the waitlist group will receive the intervention at the end of the trial. Outcome measures include drinking quantity, drinking frequency, and alcohol-related consequences. Follow-up assessment will take place at 1 month, 2 months, and 6 months following the baseline measurement. The authors will not know the group allocation during trial. The authors will plan to collect a sample of 600 participants. Mixed-effect analyses of variance will be used to examine the main effects of condition, the main effects of time, and the interaction effects between condition and time on outcome variables.

RESULTS

Enrollment for the trial began on January 6, 2018 and data are expected to be available by August 2018.

CONCLUSIONS

This study will contribute to the literature by demonstrating the efficacy of Web-based screenings and brief interventions among Japanese problem drinkers and indicating several possible moderators between the intervention and outcomes. This type of Web-based brief intervention has the possibility of being implemented in Japanese schools and workplaces as a prevention tool.

Risk factors and distribution of leprosy in YogyakartaPurposeThe purpose of this paper was to identify risk factors and distribution pattern of leprosy in Yogyakarta. MethodsA case-control study was conducted involving 112 samples which consisted of 56 cases and 56 controls. ResultsThe study found three risk factors of leprosy: BCG vaccination, humidity and lighting. BCG vaccination was the most dominant risk factor of leprosy. The study also showed that the distribution pattern of leprosy in Yogyakarta was clustered. BCG vaccination was the most dominant risk factor for leprosy occurrence. Distribution of leprosy events were wide-spread and dispersed in the city of Yogyakarta, Sleman, Bantul and Kulon Progo, and only in Gunung Kidul Regency were clustered, and overall in Yogyakarta Special Region was clustered. The existence of cases of leprosy was largely distant with primary health care, away from roads and rivers as well as more dominant in settlements in mountainous areas.ConclusionActive case finding of leprosy by health workers, especially in clustered areas to decide the transmission of leprosy either from humans or the environment, with training of leprosy and counseling officers to remove leprosy-related stigma needs to be done. These efforts need to be coordinated between the Health Office and community health centers so that the number of cases in each region can be known.

Smog effects on pneumonia in under-five children in Pontianak CityPurposeThe purpose of this study was to discover the influence of smoke haze on the incidence of pneumonia in under-five children in Pontianak.MethodsAn ecological study was conducted using time trend analysis, with correlation and multiple linear regression analysis on data of under-five children diagnosed with pneumonia following primary health care diagnosis meeting WHO criteria in Integrated Management of Childhood Illness (MTBS) in Pontianak from January 2010 to January 2014. ResultsThe study found that smoke haze had no direct effects on the incidence of pneumonia in under-five children in Pontianak. Instead, pneumonia in under-five children is influenced by seasons, while smoke haze is also affected by the season, especially during the dry season.ConclusionPneumonia disease in under-five children was influenced by seasons. In the dry season, NO2 content in the air undergoes photochemical reactions that increase O3 levels, while in the rainy season, pneumonia is affected by rainfall and wind velocity that causes air to become moist. The smoke haze generated by forest and land fires in the form of gases and particles has no direct effects on pneumonia in under-five children. Further research to decrease O3 levels in the air, especially in the dry season needs to be done. In addition, policies related to the reduction of hotspots in the dry season also need to be done by the government to minimize the risk factors of pneumonia events.Pneumonia disease in under-five children was influenced by seasons.

Compliance of antenatal care and election of birth helpers in NatunaPurposeThis study aimed to determine the association of ANC (Antenatal care) compliance with birth attendant choice in Natuna.MethodsThis study used a cross-sectional method. The subjects of the research were mothers in Natuna regency 2014. The variables were: independent variable (ANC compliance), the dependent variable (the birth attendant choice), and the control variables (age, maternal education, distance to the health facilities, parity). Data collection used questionnaires and interviews. The data analysis used descriptive and inferential analysis. The bivariable analysis used the chi-square test and multivariable analysis used logistic regression test with 95% of confidence interval (CI) and a significance level of p <0.05.ResultsBivariable and multivariable analysis showed significant correlations between ANC compliance with birth attendant choice. Pregnant women who did not comply doing ANC according to the standard that has been set at least four times had a chance two times more likely to give birth with the traditional birth attendant (TBA) than the pregnant women who complied to implement the ANC during pregnancy. Mothers with low education had a chance two times greater of choosing the TBA as birth attendant than women who are highly educated. Mothers with parity of >2 had a chance 1.9 times greater of choosing the TBA as birth attendant than women with parity ≤2.ConclusionsThere needs to be a control program from the health department working with community health workers to socialize awareness of the importance of the ANC. There needs to be the addition of TBA who are trained and partnered especially in remote areas because it cannot be denied there are still many people who choose TBA as a birth helper.

Background and objectives

Deficiency of essential trace elements and excess of potentially toxic trace elements are common in patients on hemodialysis. Whether these abnormalities are associated with poor outcomes is unknown but worth investigating, because they are potentially treatable.

Design, setting, participants, & measurements

We did a prospective longitudinal study of 1278 patients on incident hemodialysis, assessing blood concentrations of 25 trace elements at baseline. We used adjusted logistic regression to evaluate the association between trace element status and four outcomes (death, cardiovascular events, systemic infection, and hospitalization). A priori hypotheses concerned (1) deficiency of zinc, selenium, and manganese and (2) excess of lead, arsenic, and mercury. Concentrations of the other 19 elements were tested in hypothesis-generating analyses.

Results

Over 2 years of follow-up, 260 (20%) patients died, 285 (24%) experienced a cardiovascular event, 117 (10%) were hospitalized for systemic infection, and 928 (77%) were hospitalized for any cause. Lower concentrations of zinc or manganese and higher concentrations of lead, arsenic, or mercury were not independently associated with higher risk of clinical outcomes. Lower concentrations of selenium were strongly and independently associated with death (odds ratio, 0.86 per decile; 99.2% confidence interval, 0.80 to 0.93) and all-cause hospitalization (odds ratio, 0.92 per decile; 99.2% confidence interval, 0.86 to 0.98). In exploratory analyses, higher copper concentrations were significantly associated with higher risk of death (odds ratio, 1.07 per decile; 99.2% confidence interval, 1.00 to 1.15), and cadmium levels in the highest decile were associated with higher risk of death (odds ratio, 1.89; 99.2% confidence interval, 1.06 to 3.38).

Conclusions

Lower levels of zinc or manganese and higher concentrations of lead, arsenic, or mercury were not associated with higher risk of clinical outcomes, but lower concentrations of selenium were strongly and independently associated with the risks of death and hospitalization.

Kegiatan penelusuran minat peserta didik merupakan salah satu dari beberapa layanan bimbingan konseling di sekolah menengah pertama. Penelusuran minat peserta didik yang merupakan implementasi kurikulum 2013 (K13), bertujuan untuk membantu peserta didik memahami kekuatan minatnya, mempermudah dalam merealisasikan pilihan arah peminatan pada saat studi lanjut di jenjang pendidikan menengah. Mengingat adanya gambaran keraguan orang tua dan peserta didik dalam menentukan jurusan atau kelompok mata pelajaran pada sekolah lanjutan merupakan permasalahan yang sering muncul dimasyarakat. Dalam penelitian ini, dibuat instrumen bimbingan konseling untuk kegiatan penelusuran minat peserta didik. Instrumen ini akan mengungkapkan kadar kesukaan peserta didik sekolah menengah pertama (SMP) terhadap 14 objek peminatan. Dimana objek peminatan tersebut mengacu pada kegiatan kelompok mata pelajaran yang ada pada jenjang pendidikan menengah. Selain itu ada juga tes Intelligence Quotient (IQ), deskripsi dukungan dan harapan orang tua peserta didik, beserta instrumen Bimbingan Konseling lainnya yang mendukung rekomendasi penelusuran minat peserta didik. Perancangan aplikasi ini menggunakan metode prototype.

Published: March 2018

Introduction: Kluver and Bucy described a behavioral syndrome in rhesus monkeys following bilateral temporal lobectomy which included psychic blindness, hyperorality, hypermetamorphosis, hypersexuality, and emotional unresponsiveness.

Case report: A 44 years old right handed male of Indo-aryan origin, blacksmith by profession, had presented in manic phase of bipolar illness. He had hypersexuality, hypermetamorphosis, hyperorality, and altered dietary habits along with amnesia and fleeting misrecognition of even his close relatives. MRI of the patient showed mild cerebral atrophy with right temporal lobe atrophy. The patient was treated with lithium and olanzapine along with benzodiazepines. The symptoms resolved gradually with resolution of the manic phase. Patient had similar features in the previous manic episode as well that resolved with resolution of mania.

Conclusion: The symptoms of Kluver-Bucy syndrome like increased libido, increased activity might be confused with that of mania. Other features of Kluver-Bucy syndrome and the overt hypersexuality could help identify it even during manic phase of bipolar illness.
HvGCN2 silencing in barley displays enhanced Blumeria graminis f. sp. hordei susceptibility
Authors: Ozturk Ibrahim , Ersoy Figen , Akkaya Mahinur
Published: March 2018

Powdery mildew disease, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. hordei (Bgh), which belongs to the order Erysiphales, is a major crop disease. The general control nondepressible-2 (GCN2) gene of barley was previously found to be overexpressed during the powdery mildew resistance response. Recently, Arabidopsis thaliana GCN2 (AtGCN2) was shown to be involved in disease resistance against biotrophic and necrotrophic pathogens. In order to understand the function of Hordeum vulgare GCN2 (HvGCN2) in the barley powdery mildew resistance response, this gene was silenced by barley stripe mosaic virus (BSMV), mediated by virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS). This is the first study showing the potential importance of HvGCN2 in powdery mildew disease of barley. Based on our observations, when HvGCN2 was silenced on average by 53.5%, Bgh development was increased by 18.7 to 32.1%, which was determined by primary, secondary and longest hyphae measurements. The number of germinated spores also increased 2.8-fold in HvGCN2 silenced plants compared to control plants (BSMV:00). On the other hand, under the resistant condition, no difference was observed in HvGCN2- silenced plants compared to non-silenced lines although the gene was found to be overexpressed in incompatible interaction.
Particulate and membrane molecular sieves prepared to adsorb carbon dioxide in packed and staggered adsorber
Authors: Wu Honda
Published: March 2018

A fixed-bed adsorption system was used to remove carbon dioxide in this study. Adsorption isotherms were obtained from a microbalance system and the characteristics of a molecular sieve affected by preparing variables were analyzed. The adsorbents, including a particulate molecular sieve and a molecular sieve membrane, were used to adsorb carbon dioxide in the fixed-bed adsorption system. Since the surface properties of the molecular sieve were affected by the preparation variables, particulate and membrane molecular sieves were synthesized to examine the effects of preparation variables on the adsorption of carbon dioxide. The experimental results showed that the pore size of the molecular sieve has increased with the chain length of quaternary ammonium salts and higher hydrothermal temperature. Adsorption isotherms for carbon dioxide adsorbed by particulate molecular sieve and molecular sieve membrane were favourable. In addition, the breakthrough curve for the lower inlet gas flow rate was closer to that of the particulate molecular sieve under the same amount of outlet fresh air. The results demonstrated that the adsorption system for the staggered alumina carriers coated with molecular sieve membranes is worthy of development.
Strong convergence of Halpern iteration for products of finitely many resolvents of maximal monotone operators in Banach spaces
Authors: Timnak Sara , Naraghirad Eskandar , Hussain Nawab
Published: March 2018

In this paper, using Bregman functions, we introduce a new Halpern-type
iterative algorithm for finding common zeros of finitely many maximal
monotone operators and obtain a strongly convergent iterative sequence to the
common zeros of these operators in a reflexive Banach space. Furthermore, we
study Halpern-type iterative schemes for finding common solutions of a finite
system of equilibrium problems and null spaces of a -inverse strongly
monotone mapping in a 2-uniformly convex Banach space. Some applications of
our results to the solution of equations of Hammerstein-type are presented.
Our scheme has an advantage that we do not use any projection of a point on
the intersection of closed and convex sets which creates some difficulties in
a practical calculation of the iterative sequence. So the simple construction
of Halpern iteration provides more flexibility in defining the algorithm
parameters which is important from the numerical implementation perspective.
Presented results improve and generalize many known results in the current
literature.
An Einstein-like metric on almost Кenmotsu manifolds
Authors: Wang Yaning , Wang Wenjie
Published: March 2018

In this paper, we prove that if the metric of a three-dimensional
(k,?)'-almost Kenmotsu manifold satisfies the Miao-Tam critical condition,
then the manifold is locally isometric to the hyperbolic space H3(-1).
Moreover, we prove that if the metric of an almost Kenmotsu manifold with
conformal Reeb foliation satisfies the Miao-Tam critical condition, then the
manifold is either of constant scalar curvature or Einstein. Some corollaries
of main results are also given.
On generalisation of H-measures
Authors: Erceg Marko , Ivec Ivan
Published: March 2018

In some applications it is useful to consider variants of H-measures different
from those introduced in the classical or the parabolic case. We introduce
the notion of admissible manifold and define variant H-measures on Rd x P
for any admissible manifold P. In the sequel we study one special variant,
fractional H-measures with orthogonality property, where the corresponding
manifold and projection curves are orthogonal, as it was the case with
classical or parabolic H-measures, and prove the localisation principle.
Finally, we present a simple application of the localisation principle.
