Authors: Giartiningsih Giartiningsih
Published: May 2021

Pandemic is a recurring event that causes a global recession and threatens human security. The Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia is predicted to have very high morbidity and mortality rate. The strategy has been implemented but the case is still high, so it needs to be evaluated of the management factor from task force and community health center. The research method used is descriptive qualitative, with purposive sampling and indeep interview of 16 main informants and 2 triangulation informants. The research results from the input aspect of man and money are sufficient, lack of material becouse of regulations, budgets, stock and information that cause negative stigma and inadequate movement of task force and inadequate mentoring methods due to weak coordination. The planning aspects consider community input (batoom up), fulfillment of guidelines and instructions from the health office or district task force (top down) with a system of changes to the Financial Budget. The conclusion is that the preventive and promotive roles of community health center management and task forces are not maximal in efforts to deal with a pandemic becouse of limited inputs and constraints in organization and implementation.

Published: May 2021

La comunicación hospitalaria tiende cada vez más a maximizar los beneficios de la gestión de redes sociales y su engagement. Para lograr este objetivo, es clave el estudio analítico. Con el objetivo de establecer recomendaciones centradas en optimizar la estrategia de contenidos en las redes sociales de hospitales e identificar elementos de mejora, se presentan resultados obtenidos con la ayuda de diversas herramientas analíticas aplicadas a una muestra de centros hospitalarios de Alicante (España). Con base en el registro actual de la base de datos ObservaTICs, son descritos los perfiles de Facebook y Twitter, utilizando ratios para la medición del engagement y a través de la revisión del tráfico de sus páginas web. En conclusión, se observa que los centros, si bien pueden mostrar diferencias en cuanto a su actividad y calidad de contenido, requieren una planificación y control de las redes sociales para comunicarse con sus públicos, sus stakeholders y facilitar información útil sobre asuntos de salud que repercute en la reputación de la propia institución y especialmente en la salud de los mismos pacientes. En el futuro es probable que se incremente este tipo de comunicación mediante contenidos enfocados a reforzar los vínculos paciente-médico, así como paciente-hospital.

Fluid flow analysis through a bend pipe is extensively conducted in practical and cell separation operations. It is observed that flow behaviors in the bend pipe are influenced by some parameters such as curvature, aspect ratio, etc. As a result, various phenomena, steady solution branches, unsteady solutions, energy transfer are changed. In this paper, the acts of flows are performed together for fixed curvature, δ = 0.2, and Prandtl number, Pr = 7.0 (water). Here, for a wide variety of Dean numbers (100 ≤ Dn ≤ 1000) and three fixed Grashof numbers, Gr = 100, 500, and 1000; time-independent solutions with linear stabilities are investigated first where only the first steady branch exhibits linear stability out of two steady solution branches obtained. Then, different flow transitions between the required range of Dean numbers (Dn) and several Grashof numbers (Gr) are investigated using time-dependent solutions. Power spectrum density (PSD) is further revealed in order to gain a deeper understanding of periodic and multi-periodic flows. Flow velocity contours including axial flow (AF) and secondary flow (SF) and their temperature profiles (TP) are also exposed. The SFs reveal that two- to four-vortex flows are produced due to the turning of steady branch and the flow instabilities. Furthermore, the energy transfer between the cooled and heated sidewalls of the pipe is calculated. Finally, a link between centrifugal and body force with the energy transfer has been shown in this research which reveals that the fluid has merged that certainly rises the overall energy transfer.
Over-expression of ubiquitin conjugating enzyme E2 C in human endometrial cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: May 2021

Gynecologic cancers including cancers of the endometrium are a clinical problem (1-4). We mined published microarray data (5, 6) to discover genes associated with endometrial cancers by comparing transcriptomes of the normal endometrium and endometrial tumors from humans. We identified ubiquitin conjugating enzyme E2 C, encoded by UBE2C, as among the most differentially expressed genes, transcriptome-wide, in cancers of the endometrium. UBE2C was expressed at significantly higher levels in endometrial tumor tissues as compared to the endometrium. Importantly, primary tumor expression of UBE2C was correlated with overall survival in patients with endometrial cancer. UBE2C may be a molecule of interest in understanding the etiology or progression of human endometrial cancer.

Graph Self Supervised Learning: the BT, the HSIC, and the VICReg
Authors: Nag Sayan
Published: May 2021

Self-supervised learning and pre-training strategies have developed over the last few years especially for Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). Recently application of such methods can also be noticed for Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). In this paper, we have used a graph based self-supervised learning strategy with different loss functions (Barlow Twins[? ], HSIC[? ], VICReg[? ]) which have shown promising results when applied with CNNs previously. We have also proposed a hybrid loss function combining the advantages of VICReg and HSIC and called it as VICRegHSIC. The performance of these aforementioned methods have been compared when applied to two different datasets namely MUTAG and PROTEINS. Moreover, the impact of different batch sizes, projector dimensions and data augmentation strategies have also been explored. The results are preliminary and we will be continuing to explore with other datasets.
Introduction to “Quantum Light Theory” (QLT)
Authors: Vegt Wim
Published: May 2021

Quantum Light Theory (QLT) is the development in Quantum Field Theory (QFT). In Quantum Field Theory, the fundamental interaction fields are replacing the concept of elementary particles in Classical Quantum Mechanics. In Quantum Light Theory the fundamental interaction fields are being replaced by One Single Field. The Electromagnetic Field, generally well known as Light. To realize this theoretical concept, the fundamental theory has to go back in time 300 years, the time of Isaac Newton to follow a different path in development. Nowadays experiments question more and more the fundamental concepts in Quantum Field Theory and Classical Quantum Mechanics. The publication “Operational Resource Theory of Imaginarity“ in “Physical Review Letters” in 2021 (Ref. [2]) presenting the first experimental evidence for the measurability of “Quantum Mechanical Imaginarity” directly leads to the fundamental question in this experiment: How is it possible to measure the imaginary part of “Quantum Physical Probability Waves”? This publication provides an unambiguously answer to this fundamental question in Physics, based on the fundamental “Gravitational Electromagnetic Interaction” force densities. The “Quantum Light Theory” presents a new “Gravitational-Electromagnetic Equation” describing Electromagnetic Field Configurations which are simultaneously the Mathematical Solutions for the Quantum Mechanical “Schrodinger Wave Equation” and more exactly the Mathematical Solutions for the “Relativistic Quantum Mechanical Dirac Equation”. The Mathematical Solutions for the “Gravitational-Electromagnetic Equation” carry Mass, Electric Charge and Magnetic Spin at discrete values.

Psychological pressure and compounded errors during elite-level tennis
Authors: Harris David , Vine Samuel James , Eysenck Michael , Wilson Mark
Published: May 2021

Objectives: In the context of Grand Slam tennis, we sought to examine how situational pressure and prior errors can disrupt subsequent performance in elite performers. Methods: A retrospective analysis of more than 650,000 points across 12 Grand Slam tennis tournaments from 2016-2019 was conducted to identify pressurised in-game moments and unforced errors. A scoring system was used to index situational pressure based on the current match situation (e.g., break points, stage of the match) on a point-by-point basis. The occurrence of performance errors was identified based on double faults and unforced errors, as instances of controllable mistakes. Results: A mixed effects logistic regression model revealed that an increase in the pressure index (a 1-5 score) significantly increased the probability of a performance error (ps<.001), as did an error on the preceding point (OR=1.2, 95%CI [1.17, 1.23], p<.001). A multiplicative effect of pressure and prior errors also emerged, as the negative impact of prior errors on performance was greater when situational pressure was already high, in line with the predictions of Attentional Control Theory: Sport (ACTS). Analyses of the distribution of winners and unforced errors across individual players revealed that winning players were as susceptible to pressure and prior errors as losing players. Conclusions: These findings extend our understanding of how ongoing feedback from prior mistakes may further exacerbate the effects of pressure on performance.

Objective of the Review: To systematise the information on the incidence of diabetes mellitus (DM) in patients who had the novel coronavirus infection; on the features of virus mechanism activation and pathological cascades in the body; on potential ways to control blood glucose during COVID-19. Key Points. During the novel coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) associated with high death toll in all countries, specific groups of patients were identified, where the death rate was higher than the mean figures. These groups include DM patients. DM is associated with a high risk of severe coronavirus infection and is the second common comorbidity during COVID-19. DM, degree of its compensation and complications progression impact prognosis, coronavirus infection clinical course and survival. Therefore, effective teamwork of the healthcare professionals and patient is essential. The primary objective of coordination is creation of a clear algorithm of DM management during COVID-19: strict blood glucose monitoring and prompt intensification both of antihyperglycemic therapy and specific ethiopathogenetic management of COVID-19. Conclusion. DM patients require special attention and timely adequate assistance both in outpatient and inpatient settings. Long-term follow-up of DM patients after COVID-19 to minimise the risk of DM complications is also very important. Keywords: COVID-19, diabetes mellitus, novel coronavirus infection.

Objective of the Review: To discuss the current idea of the aetiology, diagnosis and management of secondary adrenal insufficiency (SAI). Key Points. The article describes key causes of the disease, including iatrogenic causes, discusses the widely studied effect of adrenocorticotropic hormone suppression by glucocorticoids and a lesser studied autoimmune hypophysitis induced by check point inhibitors. Special aspects of SAI diagnosis, principles of replacement therapy and cases of unjustified glucocorticoids prescription are given in detail. Risk classification for disease development if glucocorticoids are prescribed for other conditions is presented; an algorithm for management of this group of patients is described. Conclusion. If diagnosed untimely and treated incorrectly, SAI is a severe condition with a high risk of addisonian crisis and death. As the diagnosis is very often challenging, due vigilance is warranted, especially in high-risk groups (patients on long-lasting glucocorticoid therapy). At the same time, unjustified treatment should be avoided if diagnosis is not verified. Keywords: secondary adrenal insufficiency, secondary hypoadrenocorticism, aetiological diagnostics, glucocorticoid therapy.

The current study is to evaluate the patient facing problems by applying Late Acceptance Hill Climbing Algorithm (LAHC) in hospital settings. The recent proposed procedure of LAHC is based on metaheuristic algorithm which is linked with one-point clarification method. Patient’s satisfaction regarding the performance of the hospital is a composite mechanism. The optimization procedure is connected with NP-hard problems which is practically related to the problems faced by patients. These problems are concerned with assigning the group of patients visiting the hospital for receiving healthcare services. The common issues faced by patients include communication gap, response time to attend patients, early symptomatic relief, getting proper advice for dosage and usage of medicines, clean hospital environment. Moreover, patient education and guidance before discharge from hospital is also the missing element. The suggested algorithm of LAHC to PFP is developed and it has two phases: the first phase includes providing the initial feasible solution using communication-oriented methodology. The second phase uses three neighborhood framework which are implanted inside the segment of PFP based on LAHC to additionally upgrade the underlying feasible solution of the introductory phase.

U konzervatorskom elaboratu br. 5 obrađena je vila Ehrlich - Marić u Ulici Ivana Gorana Kovačića 37 (k. č. 839 k. o. Centar), danas Hrvatski muzej arhitekture HAZU. Naručitelj Herman Ehrlich uspio je otkupiti najbolji položaj u samom oblikovnom razdoblju zagrebačkog naselja ljetnikovaca na obroncima Medvednice, sagradivši tamo vilu u stilu romantičnog historicizma (Mijo Geher, 1890.–1891.). Radikalno preoblikovana 1928. za novog vlasnika, prema projektu Aladara Baranyaija, vila je dobila obilježja neoklasicizma i art décoa, ostvarenih u originalnoj kombinaciji. Osim prostornih i arhitektonskih kvaliteta, tijekom svoje povijesti odlikovala se i osebujnim namjenama, od ljetnikovca s restoranom i poslije prebivališta znamenitih pojedinaca (Vladimir Nazor, Drago Ibler), preko majstorskih radionica vodećih hrvatskih arhitekata, sve do današnje namjene jedinog muzeja arhitekture u Hrvatskoj. U cjelovitoj obnovi koja predstoji zbog oštećenja u potresu, uz rekonstrukciju vrijednih arhitektonskih značajki, vila će moći biti i funkcionalnije adaptirana za važnu namjenu koju ima.

Decades before he was known as a historian or as an early neoconservative thinker, let alone as the father of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Benzion Netanyahu was a young student and journalist in British Mandatory Palestine. In this tumultuous period, reaching its peak with the 1933 murder of Haim Arlosoroff, Netanyahu dwelt at the margins of Zionist politics, belonging to a group of well-educated, right-wing, young outsiders—students, poets, journalists, intellectuals, and pseudo-intellectuals—all of whom rebelled against their current and former Hebrew University professors. This study examines the crystallization of Netanyahu’s worldview and his Zionist ideology by focusing on three events between 1932 and 1935 that shaped his hostility toward the left and, much later, which became integral components of politics in Israel.
A Leap over History
Authors: Horowitz Brian
Published: May 2021

This article argues that Vladimir Jabotinsky envisioned ‘leaping over history’ to immediately achieve his goal of creating a Jewish majority in Eretz Israel. On several occasions he tried to break with evolutionary time and make events bend to his will. My arguments show him to be a revolutionary political thinker similar to Lenin, Stalin, or Mussolini, rather than a gradualist and parliamentarian. Looking at his career from this angle permits one to create a different timeline that pits Jabotinsky’s feverish activity against the slow progress of the Zionist movement.
No Sabras in the Fields?
Authors: Gilula Leah
Published: May 2021

The Cameri Theatre of Tel Aviv has always presented itself as the first repertory theater in the Yishuv that represented the sabras, creating the impression that its actors and artists were themselves mainly sabras and Hebrew their native language. However, this image, based chiefly on the successful performance of the play He Walked through the Fields, does not reflect reality. The article questions the myth by exploring the actual number of sabra theater artists and actors in the troupe, their place and measure of influence. Exposing this image sheds light on The Cameri Theatre at its beginning as well as on the creation of the image of the sabra, as presented by the character of Uri, and embraced by Hebrew culture.

Recent studies, however, have shown that MT serves a symbolic tool and can be way more effective in L2 learning than the exclusive use of TL. While many studies have examined the extent and functions of MT, only a few have explored the sociocognitive functions using Vygotsky's sociocultural (SCT) framework. The present study, therefore, adopted SCT to examine the amount and sociocognitive functions of MT. Classroom observations and stimulated recalls interviews were used to collect data from MBA students (n=6). Results showed that, learners MT use made up only 14% of the total amount of speech in L2 classroom. Most importantly, MT performed important functions, such as scaffolding, intersubjectivity and cognitive regulation. MT facilitated vocabulary learning in L2 through scaffolded help; created intersubjectivity by increasing motivation, reducing anxiety, and helped internalize L2 through cognitive self-regulation. A number of implications for classroom pedagogy and language policy have also been discussed.

Developing Emancipatory Thinking through Narratives in Antebellum America
Authors: Jamil Amir , Shah Bahramand
Published: May 2021

Literature has served as one of the most convincing tools for developing emancipatory thinking among Americans, particularly the colored people in the antebellum period. The current research paper is an attempt to study and explore how emancipatory thinking was developed through literature which is, generally considered to be more fictional than factual. Through the close reading of the selected narratives written during the period, the researcher has attempted to unearth various aspects and relate them with the factual accounts of the time in order to investigate their closer relationship with each other. This required a theoretical framework that would enable us to juxtapose the literary and non-literary texts to have an actual picture of the situation; therefore, the non-literary journalistic writings during that period have been studied parallel to the literary narratives. The findings and discussion developed in this study also suggest that further studies may also be conducted in order to dispel the misconception ascribed to narratives of the antebellum period that narratives are imaginary scattered accounts of the authors which are much exaggerated than to have elements of realism.

Published: May 2021

The Pak-U.S. relations have been through many ups and downs throughout the history of Pakistan. For most of the time during the cold war, relations remained either warm or normal except for some short periods. The ties went down the slope after the cold war and towards the onset of the twenty-first century. In addition to some drastic shifts in the regional and global political scenario, the incident of 9/11 proved a watershed for Pak-U.S. ties as well. Pakistan's decision to stand with America and her allies provided an opportunity for both the states to improve bilateral ties. Key challenges include, but not limited to, issues of trust and coordination, the problems of strategic harmony and divergence of interests and varied policies about arms and nuclear proliferation. Pak-U.S. relations have also been affected by their respective relations with other states. From Pakistan's perspective, it is essential not only to identify points of convergence and divergence with the United States but also to explore policy options to meet such challenges.

An opinionnaire containing twenty-five opinion items was administered to fifty parents who send their wards to popularly known as English medium schools. The results of the study show that the majority of parents are fearful about the socio- academic or professional future of the children if sent to Urdu medium schools, which are either in the public sector or known as Galli/mohallah schools having eye-catching names. The study unfolds that a majority of parents themselves studied at Urdu medium schools, which, according to them, were once capable of catering to the multi-faceted needs of the students.
