Authors: Pacadaljen Randy E.
Published: November 2024

The study investigates incidental learning and the appreciation of college students towards culturally-oriented activities in physical education sessions. The exploratory research design uses one-on-one interviews to gather data from 20 physical education students enrolled in the 2023–2024 school year. The positive impact of integrating culturally-oriented activities into physical education sessions is that it emphasizes the importance of cultural awareness and inclusivity in educational settings. The benefits of incorporating culturally-oriented activities into physical education include promoting cultural understanding and enriching students’ educational experiences. The transformative effect of culturally oriented activities in physical education prepares students to become responsible global citizens, emphasizing the importance of cultural enrichment. Incorporating culturally-oriented activities in physical education sessions has significant implications for educational practices, policies, and societal attitudes towards diversity, promoting global citizenship and inclusivity. Integrating culturally-oriented activities in physical education is essential in the current context to nurture cultural awareness, respect, and diversity among students. Investigating the effects of such activities can help educators create more inclusive and culturally responsive learning environments, preparing students for a diverse and interconnected world. Physical education is a way of education through physical activities that are selected and carried on with full regard to values in human growth, development, and behavior. Help learners to better understand both their own identity and the ethos of the school context and environment they share with others. Teachers’ and students’ perspectives on culturally relevant physical education. Aspects of culture and education should be complementary in terms of complementing and reinforcing each other.

Published: November 2024

Although methotrexate (MTX) is an effective chemotherapeutic agent in the treatment of cancer, its use is limited due to the occurrence of systemic tissue toxicity, including those affecting the reproductive system. Gallic acid (GAL) is a phenolic compound that has been demonstrated to exert beneficial effects in a number of pathological conditions associated with oxidative stress (OS) in recent years. This study was designed to investigate the potential therapeutic benefits of GAL in the treatment of MTX-induced ovarian damage, for the first time. Adult female rats (n=30) were randomly allocated to five groups: control, MTX, MTX+GAL (2.5 and 5 mg/kg) and high-dose GAL only (5 mg/kg). A single intraperitoneal injection of MTX (20 mg/kg) was administered to induce ovarian toxicity. The treatment groups were administered 2.5 and 5 mg/kg of GAL intraperitoneally for a period of three consecutive days. The levels of OS, inflammation and apoptosis were determined in ovarian tissue samples collected on the fifth day of the study using spectrophotometric methods. The results showed that GAL treatment reduced the level of ovarian lipid peroxidation, inflammation, and apoptosis and promoted the ovarian antioxidant system in rats subjected to MTX. The results of this study indicate that GAL may have the potential to ameliorate MTX-associated oxidative and inflammatory ovarian damage. The ovarian protective effect of GAL requires further confirmation through more extensive preclinical studies.

Revisión bibliográfica: el suero salino como medicamento. Riesgos de su uso en el entorno sanitario y sus alternativas
Authors: Navarro-Nieto Silvia , Ortiz-Gómez José Antonio
Published: November 2024

La fluidoterapia o reposición de líquidos corporales con soluciones intravenosas en el ámbito sanitario, tanto en el contexto perioperatorio como en el entorno crítico, suponen una estrategia crucial para el manejo de la hidratación y el equilibrio electrolítico del paciente. Generalmente el fluido más usado es la Solución Salina Fisiológica 0,9%, pero su administración genera controversia, ya que éste se suele administrar sin tener en cuenta que, como fármaco que es, su uso puede acarrear diversos efectos adversos y su infusión intravenosa debe ser personalizada en función de las condiciones del paciente, y considerando otras alternativas intravenosas disponibles. Las enfermeras son quienes se encargan de manipular, administrar e incluso elegir qué líquido se administra en esta práctica, y como tal, es responsabilidad del mismo conocer y optimizar todos los conocimientos y recursos posibles para saber elegir, desde la evidencia científica y carácter crítico, la mejor opción.

Am 7. November 2024 hat der Bundestag die fraktionsübergreifende Antisemitismus-Resolution angenommen. Sie fordert u.a. sicherzustellen, dass Projekte in Wissenschaft, Kunst und Kultur, die als antisemitisch anzusehen sind, keine staatlichen Förderungen erhalten. Doch um die Frage, wo legitime Palästinasolidarität und Israelkritik aufhört und wo Antisemitismus anfängt, wird gesellschaftlich und politisch gerungen. Obwohl die Resolution rechtlich unverbindlich ist, können von ihr mittelbar-faktische Grundrechtseingriffe in die Meinungs-, Kunst- und Wissenschaftsfreiheit ausgehen.

Peripheral and deep en face margin assessment (PDEMA), formerly termed by NCCN as complete circumferential peripheral and deep margin assessment (CCPDMA), has the advantages of histologic visualization of the entire marginal surface, highly accurate resection of involved tissue, and sparing of uninvolved tissue. Owing to its highest reported cure rates, PDEMA is the NCCN-preferred treatment for dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, high-risk basal cell carcinoma, and very-high-risk cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. In the United States, Mohs micrographic surgery (Mohs) is the most common method of PDEMA. In Germany and some other countries, non-Mohs methods of PDEMA referred to as the Tubingen torte and muffin techniques are more widely used. The Tubingen methods of PDEMA require close communication between surgeon and pathologist. This article describes the background of both Mohs and Tubingen PDEMA, reviews what constitutes PDEMA, and provides a protocol for Tubingen PDEMA detailing critical components in a stepwise fashion using illustrative photos and diagrams. We hope to broaden understanding of the NCCN Guidelines and their rationale, align practice, and optimize patient outcomes.

Published: November 2024

Background: Melanoma guidelines recommend surgical excision with 2-cm margins for melanomas >2 mm in thickness. However, this procedure may be problematic at critical anatomic sites. We aimed to compare the outcomes of wide (2 cm) versus narrow (1 cm) excision margins in patients with melanoma >2 mm in thickness near critical structures. Patients and Methods: We retrospectively examined 736 patients undergoing excision with wide versus narrow margins at the National Cancer Institute in Milan, Italy, between 2001 and 2015. Results: A total of 265 (36.0%) patients received a wide local excision—82 (30.9%) with linear repair and 183 (69.1%) with flap or graft reconstruction. A total of 471 (64.0%) patients received a narrow excision—320 (67.9%) with linear repair and 151 (32.1%) with flap or graft reconstruction (P<.001). The 10-year overall survival rate was 69.5% (95% CI, 63.3%–76.2%) in the wide group and 68.7% (95% CI, 63.8%–74.0%) in the narrow group (P=.462); 10-year crude cumulative incidence (CCI) of local recurrence was 5.4% (95% CI, 3.2%–9.2%) in the wide and 8.8% (95% CI, 6.4%–12.1%) in the narrow group (P=.150). Multivariable Fine-Gray modeling of the CCI of local recurrence showed that Breslow thickness (P=.010) was the only statistically significant parameter. Multivariable Cox models for overall survival showed that age (P<.001), Breslow thickness (P<.001), and sentinel lymph node status (P=.019) were statistically significant covariates. Excision margin was not a significant parameter affecting patients’ outcome. Conclusions: Wide local excision with 1-cm margins for melanoma >2 mm in thickness was not associated with an increased risk of local recurrence and did not affect overall survival.

Published: November 2024

Background: The objective of this study was to assess the impact of statin use on overall survival (OS) and nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC)–specific survival in patients with advanced NPC who underwent standard concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). Patients and Methods: This propensity score matched cohort study used data from the Taiwan Cancer Registry Database and National Health Insurance Research Database to examine the impact of statin use during CCRT on both OS and NPC-specific survival. Results: Statin use during CCRT demonstrated significant and independent prognostic value for both OS and NPC-specific survival. The adjusted hazard ratio for all-cause mortality in the statin group compared with the nonstatin group was 0.48 (95% CI, 0.34–0.68; P<.0001). Similarly, the adjusted hazard ratio for NPC-specific mortality in the statin group compared with the nonstatin group was 0.43 (95% CI, 0.29–0.65; P<.0001). Rosuvastatin, atorvastatin, and lovastatin demonstrated significant efficacy in improving NPC-specific survival outcomes. Moreover, our findings indicate a dose–response relationship, with higher cumulative defined daily doses and greater daily intensity of statin use associated with reduced mortality. Conclusions: This study suggests an association between statin use during the CCRT period for NPC and potential enhancements in both OS and NPC-specific survival. Our findings indicate a possible survival benefit of rosuvastatin, atorvastatin, and lovastatin for patients with NPC undergoing CCRT. The observed dose–response relationship underscores the potential importance of higher statin use in mitigating NPC-specific mortality, but further research is needed to establish a definitive causal relationship.

Published: November 2024

Background: The incorporation of electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePROs), such as the Geriatric Assessment (GA) and treatment preferences, into decision-making for pancreatic cancer has been limited by clinician- and system-level barriers concerning workflow. We hypothesized that ePRO inclusion within multidisciplinary tumor boards (MDTBs) would circumvent barriers and provide a venue for systematic consideration of critical patient-provided information. Patients and Methods: The INtegrating Systematic PatIent-Reported Evaluations (INSPIRE) intervention consists of (1) patient survey completion, including GA and patient preferences, and (2) screensharing patient ePROs during MDTBs. Proctor et al’s implementation outcomes were assessed, with penetration (the proportion of consented patients who were presented at MDTBs) acting as the primary outcome (considered successful at 70%). Secondary outcomes included adoption, feasibility, acceptability, appropriateness, cost, and sustainability, assessed by clinician post-MDTB exit surveys, clinician postintervention surveys, clinician postintervention semistructured interviews, and time-coding analysis of recorded and transcribed historical (November 2021–February 2022) and intervention (September 2022–June 2023) MDTBs. Results: A total of 50 patients completed surveys and all were presented at MDTBs (penetration=100%). All eligible clinicians (n=9) enrolled patients (adoption=100%) and reported that ePROs were useful in 90% and led to a change in treatment plan in 30% of cases. In postintervention surveys and interviews, clinicians primarily responded positively to feasibility, acceptability, and appropriateness questions. Time-coding analysis found a modest time cost of an additional 51.1 seconds in mean discussion time-per-patient between preintervention (mean [SD], 172.7 [111.4] seconds) and intervention patients (mean [SD], 223.8 [107.1] seconds); 86% of clinicians reported the intervention did not take too much time. All surveyed clinicians reported interest in continuing the intervention and suggested adaptations to further promote sustainability. Conclusions: The integration of ePROs into pancreatic MDTBs was feasible and acceptable, providing a potential approach to increase the utilization of ePROs by clinical teams in their management of patients with pancreatic cancer.
La concepción de la moral del espíritu en los Pensamientos de Blaise Pascal
Authors: Fuster Camp Ignasi
Published: November 2024

El Papa Francisco ha dedicado su carta apostólica Sublimitas et miseria hominis (2023) a la figura de Blaise Pascal, con motivo del cuarto centenario de su nacimiento. Pascal es un eminente moralista y pensador sobre la moral humana –además de otras muchas facetas destacables de su rica personalidad humana e intelectual–. El humanista Pascal no podía dejar de interesarse por el cometido de las acciones humanas y el horizonte moral bajo el cual son realizadas. Entonces, ¿qué pistas nos ofrece este autor en los inicios de la modernidad europea sobre el sentido de la moral humana? Pascal introduce el orden del espíritu, concibiendo así una moral del espíritu. Es lo que me dispongo a analizar a través del presente artículo y que desarrollaré destacando tres aspectos relevantes: 1) el protagonismo de la razón en el discernimiento ético; 2) el lugar del corazón en la elección moral; 3) la posibilidad de la culpa en la existencia humana.

Published: November 2024

A surveymeter is a measuring instrument that functions to detect radiation exposure doses, which uses a Geiger Muller gas filled detector with the initial unit of sievert converted to microsievert (μSv/hour). In this research, we fabricated an IoT-based surveymeter and tested the response of the gas fill detector used to changes in exposure factors. Before collecting data, it is mandatory to set parameters on the control panel to determine the radiation exposure dose to be measured. Measurements are carried out on a mobile X-Ray with parameter settings including tube voltage (kV), tube current (mA), and exposure time (s). From the results of research that the Geiger Muller gas filled detector responds to the radiation exposure dose that has been determined on the control panel and fired by mobile X-Ray, the results detected by the detector will be displayed in the application in the form of Counts Per Minute (CPM), µSv/h, + /- and data can be stored in the database. The higher the tube current value given, the smaller the radiation dose value obtained. In other words, the gas fill detector responds with a dose value that is directly proportional to the X-ray tube voltage value and inversely proportional to the X-ray tube current value.

Published: November 2024

Community Health Centers (Puskesmas) are the main place for the public to get basic health services. In certain conditions, the Health Center will receive visits from patients who arrive with the same number of origins at the same time. This has an impact on health services experiencing a decline and not maximizing the health of health workers in checking patients' health. So, comprehensive services are not obtained, and there are even patients who queue for too long. In order to minimize this occurrence, simulations are carried out to predict the number of possible visits that will occur in the future. The method used in this study is Monte Carlo. This research is intended so that the information provided by the Health Center related to the prediction of the number of patient visits that are likely to occur in the next year or in the future can be done validly and accurately. The data used is data on the number of patient visits in 2021, 2022, and 2023. As a result of this study, a prediction of the number of patient visits was obtained so that the Health Center could implement the next action that was useful for improving the quality of services needed

An important digital image processing is image segmentation, which separates objects from the background for further analysis. One segmentation technique is edge detection, which looks for boundaries between areas of different brightness. This article compares four edge detection methods: Roberts, Prewitt, Sobel, and Canny. The results show that, despite requiring more complex computations, Canny's method produces the sharpest and best connected edges; Sobel and Prewitt's method, on the other hand, is faster and simpler than Roberts' method, but is less effective in dealing with noise and often produces edges that are not connected to the plane. The choice of edge detection method depends on the application. Sobel and Prewitt are good for speed and stability, and Roberts is suitable for fast processing of images with minimal noise.

The rapid development of technology demands solutions to optimise heat management for electronic components. Through this study, the researchers evaluated the effectiveness of various types of coolants in a liquid cooling system for electrical equipment, especially CPUs. Using design simulations conducted through SolidWorks software, this research aims to optimise the flow rate and selection of coolant type to achieve maximum thermal efficiency and reduce production and operational costs. The simulation results show that water is the most efficient coolant with significant temperature reduction compared to Ethylene Glycol (EG), Propylene Glycol (PG), and silicone oil. Water shows a temperature drop of 11.76°C, while EG and PG show a temperature drop of 8.82°C and 7.35°C respectively and silicone oil shows a temperature drop of 4.9°C. It can be seen from the simulation that water shows the most effective temperature reduction compared to EG, PG, and Silicone Oil.

At every educational institution there is a library for students to use at that institution. Likewise with SMP Negeri 2 Wewewa Tengah. At the school there is a library but it still uses a bookkeeping management system or is still written manually, while the number of active borrowers is almost all students carrying out the borrowing process at the school. The process of borrowing books in the library begins when students come to the library and tell the library staff that they want to borrow books. Then students select the books they want to borrow on the shelves provided. Next, the library staff records the borrower's data, such as full name, student identification number, and class, as well as data on books borrowed, such as book title, author, and inventory number in the ledger used as a borrowing register.). The school library has a strategic role and function in developing the potential of students from the entire academic community in the school environment. The library is part of the learning resources that every school has, a library that is still manual is something that needs to be created a system that can help with administrative activities. With the e-library, users can access it together with other users without having to wait in line. The search process is easier and faster because it is assisted by an information search engine that uses a database. This system presents a variant of the digital library, including a user page section that presents books available at the Central Wewewa State library

PT XYZ is a private company in Palembang that supplies medical devices and equipment. This company conducts performance assessments every year to provide appropriate rewards in the form of gifts, bonuses or incentives to employees. In carrying out the performance assessment process for providing employee rewards, it is still done manually. This process is inefficient because it takes a lot of time, is prone to errors in calculation and it is not clear which aspects of the criteria are important. By using the Weighted Product methodology, this study tries to create a decision support system (DSS) that will simplify this evaluation procedure. This application is made website-based, using the laravel framework with the Iterative system development method. The results obtained indicate that the system can help companies improve efficiency by conducting automatic assessments, providing measurable weights, transparently and using the Weighted Product method for more accurate assessments. Overall, the system developed meets the research objectives.
