Authors: Idedhyana Ida Bagus , Nityasa NPN , Dananjaya I Gusti Ngurah Made
Published: September 2023

Perpustakaan umum memiliki peranan strategis dalam mendukung mencerdaskan generasi bangsa. Namun kondisi fasilitas literasi di Kabupaten Gianyar jauh dari standar SNI 7495 tahun 2009. Citra Kabupaten Gianyar sebagai daerah pariwisata yang menuntut adanya pelayanan publik yang baik, menyebabkan kondisi tersebut berbanding terbalik dengan minat baca dan potensi pemustaka masyarakatnya yang semakin meningkat tiap tahunnya. Dengan demikian perlunya pengadaan perpustakaan umum di Kabupaten Gianyar untuk dapat memfasilitasi potensi positif yang ada. Perancangan ini bertujuan untuk merancang fasilitas perpustakaan umum di Kabupaten Gianyar dengan menerapkan tema perancangan perpaduan desain biofilik dan metafora dalam mewujudkan bangunan perpustakaan umum yang peduli terhadap lingkungan sekaligus menarik tampilannya. Konsep dasar yang digunakan adalah edukatif, komunikatif dan rekreatif. Metode perancangannya menggunakan teknik pengumpulan data studi kepustakaan dan observasi, metode pengolahan data berupa analisa, sintesa dan transformasi. Temuan yang didapatkan yaitu diperlukan perancangan perpustakaan umum di Kabupaten Gianyar yang sesuai dengan standar serta memfokuskan pada penyelesaian tiga kriteria desain, yaitu: bangunan yang dapat memberikan pelayanan publik yang lebih baik kepada masyarakat di Kabupaten Gianyar; sebagai wadah yang dapat menghilangkan kesan membosankan perpustakaan umum; sebagai wadah yang dapat mengembalikan hubungan serasi antara manusia dengan alam serta dapat menjadi identitas literasi bagi Kabupaten Gianyar.
Lessons to be learned from Only Fools: the protection of fictional characters, parody and pastiche
Authors: Karjiker S
Published: September 2023

Die uitspraak in die Engelse saak Shazam Productions v Only Fools The Dining Experience (“Shazam-saak”) was in twee opsigte ’n grensverskuiwende kopiereg-uitspraak. Dit was die eerste keer dat kopieregbeskerming aan ’n fiksiekarakter onder Engelse reg erken is, en dat sodanige beskerming buite die werk waarin daardie karakter oorspronklik verskyn het, kon bestaan. Tweedens was dit moontlik die eerste keer dat die billike handeling-verwere van parodie en nabootsing teen ’n eis van kopieregskending deur ’n Engelse verhoorhof oorweeg is. Die uitspraak is noemenswaardig aangesien ’n Suid-Afrikaanse hof tot op hede nog geen erkenning gegee het dat ’n fiksiekarakter ook kopieregbeskerming kan geniet nie. Daardie moontlikheid is nie oorweeg in Rapid Phase Entertainment CC v SABC nie. Die Shazam-saak bied verdere ondersteuning vir die geskiktheid van ’n fiksiekarakter vir kopieregbeskerming, onafhanklik van die werk waarin die karakter voorheen verskyn het. Daar word vertrou dat dit in die Suid-Afrikaanse reg erken sal word. Die saak is ook om ’n ander rede leersaam, naamlik die voorgestelde invoering van die billike handeling-verwere van parodie en nabootsing, en ’n Amerikaanse-styl stelsel vir billike gebruik, in Suid-Afrikaanse kopieregwetgewing in die Wysigingswetsontwerp op Outeursreg. Die Shazam-saak verskaf ’n paar nuttige kriteria vir die oorweging van daardie spesifieke verwere, en die toepaslikheid van die stelsel van billike gebruik. Die Shazam-saak is egter nie bo kritiek verhewe nie. Dit lyk of die hof ’n arbitrêre onderskeid getref het deur bepaalde kopieregwerke as literêre werke of dramatiese werke te klassifiseer. Dit is te wyte aan die vreemdheid van Britse kopiereg, waarvolgens literêre werke en dramatiese werke onderling in verskillende kategorieë in die Britse outeursreg val. Hierdie uitgangspunt van die Britse kopieregwetgewing is beslis effe vreemd. Die Suid-Afrikaanse kopiereg is anders in hierdie verband. Die hof het ook beslis dat, vir die toepassing van die billike handeling-verwere van parodie en nabootsing, dit nie ’n tweeledige toets behels nie. Eerstens, of die inbreukmakende gebruik vir die uitgesonderde doel is, en tweedens, of hierdie tot billike handeling van die werk aanleiding gee. Die hof het bevind dat die ondersoek een saamgestelde beoordeling is, naamlik of die dade waaroor gekla word (dit wil sê parodie of nabootsing) neerkom op billike handeling vir die spesifieke doel. Daar word aangevoer dat dit nie korrek is nie. Verder word aangevoer dat dit nie nodig is vir ’n hof om direk, as ’n afsonderlike ondersoek, die drie stap-toets te oorweeg benewens ’n spesifieke billike handeling-uitsondering nie.
Aantekeninge: An update of recent labour law developments from South African courts 2023
Authors: Van Staden MJ
Published: September 2023

This contribution considers recent South African labour law cases from June 2022 to May 2023. It focuses on several decisions handed down by South African courts on various labour and employment law matters. The cases considered have the potential to provide labour law scholars with insights into the interpretation and application of legal principles relevant to labour and employment law. These cases involve novel legal issues or challenge existing legal principles. They may also include disputes with social or political implications. They may challenge existing social norms or legal structures and require legal scholars to rethink their understanding of these structures. It is foreseen that these cases can provide labour law scholars with a framework for understanding legal principles and the reasoning behind the court’s decision. Labour law cases are numerous, and it is virtually impossible for labour lawyers to be aware of all labour law developments.

Published: September 2023

Sunlight is required for vitamin D synthesis but is also responsible for various adverse effects on human skin, including photoaging, sunburn, and skin cancer. To avoid this, regular use of sunscreens is recommended. The aim of the study was to evaluate the knowledge of a subset of our local population about exposure to sun and assess the attitude about the importance of sunscreen usage. This prospective cross-sectional study was conducted at the dermatology outpatient clinic using a predesigned questionnaire filled by the participants. A total of 200 patients were selected, out of which 135 were females and 65 were males. Forty-nine percent of the participants claimed to use sunblock; however, the majority (54%) used it only occasionally.

Effectiveness of computed tomography-guided nasotracheal intubation procedure on predicting tube advancement difficulty and preventing epistaxis: a prospective case-control study
Authors: Orbay Yasli Seher , Gunay Canpolat Dilek , Baydan Ebru , Ahmet Emin Demirbas
Published: September 2023

Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of computed tomography-guided nasotracheal intubation procedure in predicting tube advancement difficulty and preventing epistaxis.
Methods: The prospective study was conducted at Erciyes University Faculty of Dentistry from April 2018 to June 2019 and comprised maxillofacial surgery patients of either gender aged 18-50 years who were due to undergo bimaxillary orthognathic surgery, which was defined as American Society of Anaesthesiology grade I or II. The space where the tube was to be passed in the internal nasal valve region was measured horizontally and vertically using computed tomography. A single experienced anaesthesiologists intubated all the patients who were later divided into 'easy' group A and 'difficult' group B on the basis of the effort required to advance the tube through the nasal passage. Data was analysed using JASP version 0.14.1.0).
Results: Of the 60 patients, 42(70%) were females and 18(30%) were males. The overall mean age was 29.0±10.5 years and the mean body mass index value was 23.6±4.0kg/m2 (p>0.05). There were 28(46.6%) patients in group A, and 32(53.3%) in group B. Median distances were significantly shorter and epistaxis was significantly higher in group B compared to group A (p<0.001).  The cut-off values to reveal the distance at which difficulty may be experienced while advancing the tube, determined through receiver operating characteristic analysis, were 1.09cm for vertical and 0.39cm for horizontal distances.
Conclusion: The nasotracheal intubation procedure under the guidance of computed tomography could help predict the difficulty of tube advancement, and could thus prevent epistaxis and other related nasal intubation complications.
Clinical trial number: NCT05525754.

Dengue fever presenting as acute febrile illness in neonates: a case series from Pakistan
Authors: Salim Maliha , Kumar Vinod , Zaheer Hafsa , Shamim Nazia , Hashmi Hina Mumtaz
Published: September 2023

Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne disease caused by flavivirus. It primarily infects people living in tropical and subtropical areas and can be transmitted vertically or horizontally to new-borns. We discuss the clinical spectrum, treatment, and outcomes of five neonates who presented with dengue fever at Aga Khan Hospital for Women in Karimabad, Karachi, Pakistan, during the 2021 post-monsoon season (October to December). Dengue infection was confirmed via positive NS1 antigen test. All new-borns had fever, flushing, and thrombocytopenia. Capillary leak syndrome and haemorrhagic complications occurred in one case. Two babies required oxygen support, with one mortality. Due to the severity of the disease in this population, we suggest that dengue fever should be evaluated as a differential diagnosis in neonates with sepsis and thrombocytopenia, especially in high-risk or endemic areas.

Usual presentation of an unusual pathogen – Cryptococcus laurentii meningitis: a case report
Authors: Zulfiqar Azka , Rafia Irfan  , Faisal Hanif  , Javaid Usman
Published: September 2023

Infections caused by non-neoformans Cryptococcus spp., including Cryptococcus laurentii, previously thought to be saprophyte and non-pathogenic, have become more common during the past few years, particularly in immunocompromised hosts. To the best of our knowledge here, we present the first case of meningitis in an immunocompromised patient due to a fungus that has never been reported in Pakistan. Our patient, a 40-year old male, who had acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) was diagnosed as Cryptococcus laurentti meningitis, with a rare neurological manifestation i.e., cryptococcomas and lepto-meningitis. We presume that exposure to pigeon droppings and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome were the risk factors for this case report. He was treated with liposomal Amphotericin (LAMB) and fluconazole but unfortunately, he rapidly deteriorated and ultimately succumbed to the infection. This case underscores the significance of prompt diagnosis and vigorous treatment of Cryptococcus laurentii meningitis, as well as the need for continued surveillance in immunocompromised individuals.
Can the use of infrared vein finder help refine venipuncture?
Authors: Mansoor Noman , Warsi Aimen
Published: September 2023

Madam,
Venipuncture is one of the most frequent invasive procedures carried out in hospitals. It involves inserting a needle into a vein in order to extract a blood sample for hematological, biochemical, or bacteriological investigation. [1]. Although the most common procedure, it does come with its drawbacks.
A study investigating more than a million venipuncture procedures between 2005 and 2014 revealed that one in every 3700 persons (0.027%) faced post-venipuncture complications [2]. Although the number is small, it cannot be disregarded. Another study found that mild bruising and hematoma were prevalent, accounting for 12.3% of all venipunctures, with minor bruising being the most frequent. Serious complications were also observed in 3.4% of patients. In 2.6% of cases, there was hypotension and diaphoresis. Syncope occurred in around 1% of patients [3]. A study also showed that six patients out of 80,000 seen in a blood-transfusion center over two years had painful peripheral-nerve injuries after venipuncture in the antecubital fossa [4]. Other possible complications include petechiae, extravasations, edema, thrombosis, and arterial puncture [5]. Although the number of post-venipuncture complications is small, it does persist and needs to be addressed. These complications can be reduced to a significant extent by the use of an infrared vein finder.
An infrared vein finder is a medical device that uses infrared light to locate veins beneath the skin. The light passes through the skin and reflects off the blood vessels beneath. An optical sensor then records the reflected light, which produces an image of the veins that can be viewed on a display screen. [6]. When placing IVs or taking blood samples, they aid in greater accuracy and save time because veins can be found quickly and easily. Since needles can be placed into veins more precisely, they can lessen pain and discomfort for patients. They might also lessen the number of issues that can arise when drawing blood or inserting IVs. The near-infrared technology is also useful for finding the vein for cannulation, therapy, and other medical purposes at a very low cost, for pediatric and elderly patients, as well as others with challenging venous access. [7]. Their use in emergency settings can be vital, as they allow faster vein access hence saving critical time. They can be operated by anyone who has received proper training because they are uncomplicated to operate. They are also reasonably priced.

Authors: Cristina Rosas Izabela , De Mello Chaves Maria Júlia , Oliveira Conti Rafaela , Carolino Sales Silva Alessandro Rangel
Published: September 2023

Introdução: A intoxicação por vitamina D tem se tornado frequente devido ao aumento da suple­mentação de forma indiscriminada, muitas vezes sem acompanhamento de um profissional capac­itado. Objetivos: Discutir a suplementação inadequada da vitamina D, a participação do médico e farmacêutico e abordar as causas e consequências da hipervitaminose. Métodos: Trata-se de uma revisão narrativa de publicações científicas encontradas em bases indexadas e de acordo com o escopo do estudo. Resultados: A vitamina D conta com inúmeros benefícios e funções no organ­ismo, devido a isso, é visível um crescente interesse da população na suplementação, causando um consumo indiscriminado com possibilidade de intoxicação. De acordo com o Instituto de Medicina norte-americana, a toxicidade geralmente é causada com doses acima de 10 mil UI/dia resultando em concentrações séricas maiores que 150 ng/mL. Segundo diferentes autores, as consequências da intoxicação da vitamina D são: desenvolvimento de problemas gastrointestinais, neurológicos e a hipercalcemia, afetando sobretudo a função renal. Conclusão: A suplementação da vitamina com base apenas em leitura de estudos enaltecendo seus benefícios não é ideal, sendo necessário um acompanhamento médico individualizado. Além disso, é essencial uma comunicação efetiva entre o profissional e o paciente para que haja um entendimento da prescrição e evite-se o uso inadequado da suplementação vitamínica.

Waiting times at the outpatient clinic for child and adolescent psychiatry at the University Hospital of Brussels: which factors are related to waiting times and the risk of being admitted for diagnostics?

Long waiting lists are a major problem in mental health care for minors. In Flanders (Belgium), concrete data about waiting lists are limited. Gaining more insight into this problem and exploring possibilities to reduce waiting times are essential.

This exploratory study of a retrospective cohort mapped the waiting times and population characteristics of all registered patients in the period of May 1, 2020 to April 30, 2021 who were placed on the waiting list for intake at the outpatient clinic for child and adolescent psychiatry of the University Hospital of Brussels. A logistic regression analysis was conducted to determine factors associated with the likelihood of rejection. Based on the data, a template for an online questionnaire was developed to help identify patients at high risk of being rejected more quickly.

Half of the 382 registered patients moved on for further assessment. The median waiting time until intake was 17 weeks. The likelihood of being rejected increased as the parents’ total Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) score decreased and with current involvement of psychological/psychiatric services.

This study confirms the long waiting time for ambulatory multidisciplinary child psychiatric assessment within a university hospital. A significant proportion of the patients does not proceed for further assessment, which makes fast identification of these patients important. A proposal for an online questionnaire was developed for this purpose. Patients with an increased risk of rejection can be screened in the short term. Follow-up research with practical implementation and evaluation of the impact on waiting times is necessary.

Relationship between Personality Traits and Satisfaction in Interpersonal Relationships among Consecrated Religious in Catholic Higher Education Institutions in Lang’ ata Sub-County, Kenya
Authors: Musambai Ignatius , Kitonga Dr. Daniel M. , Muraya Dr. Phyllis N.
Published: September 2023

Scholars have argued that there is a relationship between personality traits and satisfaction in interpersonal relationships among individuals. As such, the current study sought to investigate the relationship between personality traits and satisfaction in interpersonal relationships among consecrated religious in Catholic higher education institutions in Lang’ata Sub-County, Kenya. The study employed a quantitative paradigm to collect data and analyze it. A correlational research design was utilized. Proportionate stratified random sampling method was used to select 329 participants that took part in the study. The study was based on the Big Five Model and the Fundamental Interpersonal Relationship Orientation theory. Data was collected using the Big Five Inventory and the Relationship Assessment Scale and analyzed using both descriptive and correlational analysis. The results showed that majority (80.9%) of the participants had moderate level of satisfaction in interpersonal relationships, compared to 18.1% who had high level of satisfaction in interpersonal relationships, and 1.0% of the participants who had low level of satisfaction in interpersonal relationships. In addition, the study found out that there is a statistically significant relationship between personality traits such as extraversion (r=0.128, p=0.021), agreeableness (r=0.398, p=0.000), conscientiousness (r=0.281, p=0.000), openness (r=0.171, p0.002) and neuroticism (r=-0.323, p=0.000) and satisfaction in interpersonal relationship among the respondents. The study concluded that there is a link between personality traits and satisfaction in interpersonal relationship among the consecrated religious. The study recommended that counselors need to psycho-educate the clients especially those high in neuroticism on how to develop interpersonal skills.

Researchers and educators asserted that music-based intervention is more effective than traditional teaching approaches when educating children due to the fact that music-based intervention promotes students' memory and interest. An ongoing imbalance in education that stands to be corrected is how parents and teachers may be more concerned with children's academic achievement than their social skills. In that context, this quantitative study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of song-based music and movement intervention in improving social skills among elementary-age children. The sixty participants (aged 7–9 years) were divided equally into three experimental groups (song-based, music and movement as well as song-based music and movement intervention) and a control group (no treatment). Quantitative data collected through pre and post-tests were assessed by three independent evaluators using the researcher-adapted Intrapersonal and Interpersonal Skills Measurement Form (IISMF). Participants' physical reactions, such as facial expressions, behaviours, and emotions, were observed. The results indicated that the song-based music and movement intervention had significantly improved the social skills on both dimensions of intrapersonal and interpersonal compared to the other interventions. This study provides insights to promote the implementation of song-based music and movement intervention for schoolteachers to improve young age children's social skills. Furthermore, social skills are one of the crucial elements in 21st-century learning skills that contribute to their future success.
In-sistencia y ex-sistencia: sistencia como categoría ontológica

Sistencia surge como categoría ontológica que permite dar sustento a los entes y relacionarlos con el ser sin por ello perder la condición de cada uno de ellos. Dios se presenta como ser trascedente; y el humano y el mundo, como seres dependientes del ser en sí mismo. Palabras Clave: ontología, Dios, humano, mundo, existencia.

Corría el año de 1837. Un joven que había nacido viejo, a los 24 años, encorvado y un poco lerdo en su caminar, con su pipa en la mano, con un rostro amable pero con una mirada que dejaba en silencio hasta al más elocuente, atrapaba con su mirada contemplativa la juventud de la quinceañera Regine Olsen. Ella en ese instante sintió que su inocencia se convertía en un interrogante inmortal y él desbordaba su ingenio en palabras que no lograban siquiera hacer un esbozo de lo que entre ellos acontecía: una de las grandes historias de amor en un pequeño y alejado país confinado a 40 islas en el norte del hemisferio.
ABRSM Örnekli Bir Sertifika Sınav Sisteminin Müziksel Performans Alanlarındaki Kullanımına Yönelik Öğretim Elemanı Görüşleri

Published: September 2023

Müziksel performans, müzik alanında sıklıkla ele alınan kunulardan biridir. Bu konular genellikle müziksel performansın nasıl geliştirileceği üzerine yoğunlaşmaktadır. Müziksel performans değerlendirmeleri konusunda bir standart oluşturulması, özellikle müzik eğitimi açısından önem taşımaktadır. Ülkemizde bu alanda uygulanan standart oluşturmaya yönelik bir çalışmaya rastlanmamıştır. Bu çalışmada, sınav sistemi ve uygulanış biçimiyle bütün dünyada yaygın olarak varlığını sürdüren ABRSM (Associated Board Royal School of Music) ve benzer kuruluşların uluslararası sertifika sınav sistemlerinin, müziksel performans alanlarında kullanımının öğretim elemanı görüşleri çerçevesinde değerlendirilmesi hedeflenmiştir. Bu araştırma özellikle müzik öğretmenliği programından mezun öğretmen adaylarını, müziksel performans alanlarında dal uzmanlıklarına göre ayrıştıran, sınıflandıran ya da tanımlayan bir belgenin bulunmaması hipotezinden yola çıkarak hazırlanmıştır. Bununla birlikte, Kamu Personeli Seçme Sınavı’nda (KPSS), müziksel performansa dayalı dal uzmanlıklarını ölçen herhangi bir sistematiğin olmadığı bilinmektedir. Bu sebeple KPSS’nın müziksel performans alanlarını ölçmedeki eksik yönü bu araştırmanın alt problemlerinden biridir. Tüm bu bilgiler göz önünde bulundurulduğunda, araştırmada müziksel performans alanlarında sınayıcı ve belirleyici, ABRSM örnekli benzer bir sertifika sınav sisteminin kendi ulusal müzik kültürü yapımıza uygun haliyle ülkemizde dal uzmanlıklarını ortaya çıkartmak ve uzmanlık seviyelerini belirlemek adına kullanılabilirliği tespit edilmek istenmiştir. Araştırmada sertifika sınav sistemine ilişkin öğretim elemanlarına yöneltilen üç açık uçlu soruya verilen yanıtların betimsel ve içerik analizine tabi tutulması ile elde edilen bulgulara yer verilmiştir. Araştırmaya yedi coğrafi bölgenin tümünde yer alan eğitim fakültelerinin müzik eğitimi anabilim dalları dâhil edilmiş olup, her bölgeden en az bir müzik eğitimi anabilim dalında görev yapan öğretim elemanının görüşü alınmıştır. Araştırma için random olarak seçilmiş otuz bir öğretim elemanının görüşü bu çalışmanın bulgularını oluşturmaktadır. Elde edilen bulgulara göre, araştırmaya katılan otuz bir öğretim elemanından yirmi tanesi “bir sertifika sınav sistemine ihtiyaç duyulduğunu”, beş tanesi “ihtiyaç duyulmadığını” ve altı tanesi “şartlı/koşullu olarak bir sertifika sınav sistemine ihtiyaç duyulduğunu” söylemektedir.

This projеct aims to dеvеlop an intеlligеnt systеm that combinеs thе powеr of dееp lеarning modеls, VGG19 and RеsNеt50, to facilitatе thе rеtriеval and captioning of criminal imagеs basеd on thеir visual contеnt. Thе proposеd systеm will consist of two main componеnts: a ContеntBasеd Imagе Rеtriеval (CBIR) systеm and an imagе captioning modulе. Thе CBIR systеm will bе built using thе VGG19 and RеsNеt50 dееp convolutional nеural nеtworks, prе-trainеd on largе-scalе imagе datasеts.

In addition to imagе rеtriеval, thе projеct will also focus on gеnеrating dеscriptivе captions for criminal imagеs using thе captioning modulе. This modulе will еmploy an attеntion-basеd mеchanism to еmphasizе rеlеvant imagе rеgions whilе gеnеrating captions. Thе captioning modеl will bе trainеd on a largе-scalе captionеd imagе datasеt to lеarn thе corrеlation bеtwееn visual fеaturеs and tеxtual dеscriptions. Thе intеgration of thе CBIR systеm and thе imagе captioning modulе will rеsult in a comprеhеnsivе tool that not only rеtriеvеs similar criminal imagеs but also providеs dеscriptivе captions, aiding invеstigators in undеrstanding thе contеxt and contеnt of thе rеtriеvеd imagеs.
