Authors: Basri Muhammad Ridha
Published: May 2023

Penelitian ini mengkaji tentang praktik salat jumat online bersama KH Wawan Gunawan Abdul Wahid selama masa pandemi Covid-19. Kajian ini menggunakan metode etnografi virtual dalam mencermati ritual keagamaan berupa salat jumat online yang termediatisasi melalui Zoom Clouds Meeting secara real time. Hasil penelitian ini menemukan bahwa teknologi media telah menjadi alat untuk memediasi suatu ritual keagamaan. Terjadi dekonstruksi atau pergeseran makna tempat salat atau masjid, serta makna keterhubungan antarjamaah dengan imam. Pelaksanaan salat jumat online dilandasi dengan pemahaman bahwa telah terjadi kesatuan tempat imam dan makmum yang difasilitasi oleh bit-bit teknologi media. Pelaku menilai bahwa selama makmum masih dapat mendengar suara imam dengan jelas, maka itu memenuhi syarat untuk sahnya pelaksanaan salat jumat berjamaah di masa darurat. Pengalaman salat di ruang virtual ini antara lain melahirkan perasaan menyata (sense of the real) dan perasaan mengomunitas (sense of the community) di antara para jamaah yang terpencar di beberapa tempat.

Objective: to conduct a comparative analysis of the level of α-defensins (HNP1-3) and cytokines (IL-8, IL-4, IL-17, TNFα) to identify predictors of chronic acute urticaria. Materials and methods. There were 57 patients under observation with acute recurrent urticaria, divided by the level of serum IgE into 3 groups: group 1 - patients with IgE levels up to 100 IU / ml, group 2 - with IgE from 100 to 500 IU / ml, group 3- with IgE over 500 IU / ml. The quantitative content of α-defensins (HNP 1-3) in blood plasma and cytokines (IL-8, IL-4, IL-17A, TNF-α), IgE in blood serum was determined by solid-phase ELISA. Rusults. The study showed that in all patients with acute urticaria there was an increase in the level of serum cytokines (IL-8, IL-17A, TNF-α) and α-defensins HNP 1-3, the most pronounced in patients of group 3 with an IgE level of more than 500 IU/ml According to the results of correlation analysis, the strongest direct correlation was found between the level of α-defensins HNP 1-3 and IL-17A. In patients of groups 2 and 3, a strong direct correlation was also found between the level of HNP 1-3 and TNFα. Conclusion. The results of the study showed that a significant increase in the level of cytokines IL-4, IL-8, IL-17A, TNF-α and α-defensins (HNP1-3) in patients with acute recurrent urticaria indicates their key role in the pathogenesis of the disease. The revealed direct correlation between the levels of α-defensins, IL-17A and TNF-α reflects the dynamics of the course of immunoinflammatory process and can be regarded as predictors of chronic acute urticaria.

Objective: to study the effects of the GHK peptide and its structure analogues on the mechanisms of innate immunity and lipid peroxidation in wound. Materials and methods. The experiments were performed on 70 male Wistar rats. The skin wound was modeled by applying a full-layer wound with an area of 250 mm2 on the animal's back. The peptides Gly-His-Lys (GHK), D-Ala-Gly-His-Lys (D-Ala-GHK), and Gly-His-Lys-D-Ala (GHK-D-Ala) were used in doses of 0.5 μg/kg and 1.5 μg/kg, which it was administered intradermally in doses of 0.5 μg/kg and 1.5 μg/kg in a volume of 0.1 ml for 3, 7 or 10 days. The activity of lipid peroxidation (LPO) processes in blood serum was assessed by the content of malonic dialdehyde (MDA) and acylhydroperoxides (AHP). The antioxidant mechanisms were evaluated by determining the activity of catalase and the total antioxidant activity (OAA) of blood serum. Phagocytic activity of blood neutrophils was assessed by phagocytic index (PI) and phagocytic number (PN). The activity of oxygen-dependent mechanisms in phagocytes was evaluated in a spontaneous nitroblue tetrazolium test (NBT). Results. After the administration of GHK, the tendency to PI, PN and completeness of phagocytosis prevailed, which mainly persisted with the use of peptides D-Ala-GHK and GHK-D-Ala. At the same time, the GHK-D-Ala peptide at a dose of 1.5 μg/kg had the most stable effect on phagocytic activity. The data obtained in the NBT are largely consistent with the PN indicators. At the same time, the effects of structural analogues, unlike GHK, were manifested throughout the experiment. Significantly significant changes in the activity of LPO and antioxidant mechanisms were observed with the use of all peptides. However, their dynamics, orientation and severity throughout the experiment were quite complex. Conclusion. GHK and its structural analogues, D-Ala-GHK and GHK-D-Ala, had an effect on the indicators of innate immunity and LPO in a skin wound, the severity and direction of which depends on the healing period. At the same time, the most pronounced and stable effects were observed when using GHK-D-Ala. That demonstrates the importance of protecting the tripeptide molecule from the action of carboxypeptidases.

Published: May 2023

Microplastic (MP) debris is now a global concern. The Chao Phraya is the largest river in Thailand and transports MPs from terrestrial areas to the ocean. MP debris in its water and sediment were measured in March 2021, September 2021, and March 2022 in five provinces along the watercourse. Hydrological data were also collected to estimate the MP riverine flux between provinces. Size, shape, color, and types of MP polymers were observed, with sedimentation data collected for MP content. Results showed that MPs were found at all sample stations, with average abundance in all province water samples ranging from 0.54 ± 0.05 to 1.07 ± 0.28 pieces/L, while in sediment sample, numbers ranged from 183.84 ± 38.76 to 546.18 ± 86.84 pieces/kg dry weight throughout all seasons. Overall contamination and accumulation were similar between provinces but significantly different between seasons. Sizes of MPs in water varied between seasons with MPs in sediment mostly 330–5,000 μm (Kruskal–Wallis, P < 0.05). Sedimentation of MPs was different between seasons (Kruskal–Wallis, P < 0.05). The highest MP flux values discharged from Samut Prakan Province to the inner Gulf of Thailand were 1.83 × 105 and 1.60 × 105 million items/day in September 2021 and March 2022, respectively.

Leaves
Authors: Nagarajana Kandasamy , Khan Nayla , Ghai Roma , Grover Parul , Kapoor Garima , Alam Md Shamshir
Published: May 2023

Introduction:

Cardiovascular disorders are the most prevalent and life-threatening
conditions affecting human beings. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the cardioprotective effect
of P. rubra leaves.

Aim:

Plumeria rubra L. has been used for ages in alternative/traditional systems of medicine for
several conditions, such as arthritis, toothache, pruritus, asthma, dysuria, gonorrhoea, diabetes,
and various types of inflammation.

Methods:

Acute toxicity studies were performed using OECD 423 guidelines, and cardiomyopathy
was induced in Wistar albino rats through an intraperitoneal injection of doxorubicin hydrochloride.
Different groups were established to study the efficacy of doxorubicin-treated P. rubra
leaf extract for 7 days. Blood pressure of both systolic and diastolic was recorded with noninvasive
blood pressure apparatus, and the mean was considered. Biochemical parameters were
analysed for serum and tissue homogenate viz. lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), thiobarbituric acid
reactive substance (TBARS), reduced glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase
(CAT).

Results:

The LD50 cut-off range for the leaf extract was found to be 2,000 mg/kg body weight. P.
rubra leaf extract prevented the increase in heart rate (364.8 BPM) and mean blood pressure
(122.24 mmHg) and demonstrated good results as an antihypertensive agent. The treatment with
the extract was also found to revert the oxidative stress levels, as depicted by the MDA, SOD, and
catalase levels in heart tissue in treated rats.

Conclusion:

P. rubra leaf extract at a higher dose (200 mg/kg) exerted a compelling cardioprotective
action against cardiomyopathy induced by doxorubicin in Wistar rats due to the presence of
lignan glycoside, liriodendrin.

Published: May 2023

Background:

Family caregivers of stroke patients suffer from a high caregiving burden that affects their quality of life. Telenursing can provide caregivers and patients with services at the lowest cost and full access. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the impact of telenursing on the quality of life of caregivers of older stroke patients.

Methods:

A total of 79 family caregivers of older stroke patients participated in this randomized clinical trial. The samples were selected from caregivers of older stroke patients admitted to a teaching hospital in Qazvin, Iran. They were randomly divided into two groups. The intervention group participated in an educational intervention for 12 weeks through telephone follow-up and social media. The Barthel Scale and the 36-item Short Form Survey (SF-36) were used for data collection. The chi-square and independent and paired t-tests were used to analyze the data.

Results:

The mean age of 79 caregivers participating in the study was 46.16 ± 11.32 years. No significant differences were found between the two groups at baseline. However, the independent t-test showed significant differences in the psychological subscale (p <0.001) between the intervention and control groups after the intervention. In addition, the results of the paired t-test showed significant improvements in the intervention group in physical (p <0.001) and psychological (p <0.001) subscales.

Conclusion:

The results of the current study support the effectiveness of telenursing in improving the quality of life of caregivers of older stroke patients.

Authors: Baía Magalhães Breno
Published: May 2023

O presente artigo abordará a possibilidade ou não de deferimento judicial de medicamentos não contemplados nas políticas do SUS e, em caso positivo, quais os critérios judiciais que deverão ser preenchidos para tanto. A pesquisa, além de realizar resenha bibliográfica sobre a judicialização da saúde no campo empírico, analisará a correlação de progenia entre o RE nº 566.471/RN e a STA 175, a fim de aferir convergências, divergências e os critérios estipulados pelo STF para o deferimento de medicamentos fora da lista do SUS. Concluímos que não há, entre os votos até agora apresentados no RE, uma interação acerca de seus fundamentos, apenas uma veiculação particular de cada ministro sobre o tema, principalmente acerca dos parâmetros desenvolvidos, dificultando a compreensão e a extração dos critérios que o judiciário deverá seguir em casos futuros.

O presente a trabalho se propõe a refletir sobre as contribuições e possibilidades metodológicas de pesquisas neoinstitucionais que englobem práticas e reflexões decoloniais – ou descoloniais – como ferramentas produtivas de mesoanálises, diante da necessidade de repensar os paradigmas de descrição, de avaliação e de transformação das instituições reais a partir das suas regras e dinâmicas informais, especialmente, as que são pautadas nas mobilizações dos seus atores e na pluralidade de acepções e de reinvindicações de direitos que coexistem, se imbricam e se afetam mutualmente com as regras formais. Mediante a adoção teórico-conceitual do neoinstitucionalismo, em conjunto com as reflexões críticas propiciadas por pesquisas empíricas, interdisciplinares e fundo decolonial, objetiva-se elencar caminhos metodológicos possíveis para a identificação do comportamento e da interação entre as instituições formais e informais, das suas regras do jogo e dos seus partícipes de forma a evitar reificações, homogeneizações ou meras compilações legislativas, principalmente, no âmbito do estudo do direito comparado. Logo, dar-se-á enfoque aos contributos do processo de escuta ativa dos jogadores e do seu processo de autopercepção enquanto tais, ressaltando o papel das ações de projetos de extensão e de movimentos sociais em defesa de direitos por meio de mobilizações sociais, litigâncias estratégicas e novas leituras e perspectivas sob as normas postas, propondo, ao fim, possíveis caminhos para edificar uma teoria neoinstitucional de fundo decolonial.
Dashboard With Bump Charts to Visualize the Changes in the Rankings of Leading Causes of Death According to Two Lists: National Population-Based Time-Series Cross-Sectional Study
Authors: Tai Shu-Yu , Chi Ying-Chen , Chien Yu-Wen , Kawachi Ichiro , Lu Tsung-Hsueh
Published: May 2023

Background

Health advocates and the media often use the rankings of the leading causes of death (CODs) to draw attention to health issues with relatively high mortality burdens in a population. The National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) publishes “Deaths: leading causes” annually. The ranking list used by the NCHS and statistical offices in several countries includes broad categories such as cancer, heart disease, and accidents. However, the list used by the World Health Organization (WHO) subdivides broad categories (17 for cancer, 8 for heart disease, and 6 for accidents) and classifies Alzheimer disease and related dementias and hypertensive diseases more comprehensively compared to the NCHS list. Regarding the data visualization of the rankings of leading CODs, the bar chart is the most commonly used graph; nevertheless, bar charts may not effectively reveal the changes in the rankings over time.

Objective

The aim of this study is to use a dashboard with bump charts to visualize the changes in the rankings of the leading CODs in the United States by sex and age from 1999 to 2021, according to 2 lists (NCHS vs WHO).

Methods

Data on the number of deaths in each category from each list for each year were obtained from the Wide-ranging Online Data for Epidemiologic Research system, maintained by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Rankings were based on the absolute number of deaths. The dashboard enables users to filter by list (NCHS or WHO) and demographic characteristics (sex and age) and highlight a particular COD.

Results

Several CODs that were only on the WHO list, including brain, breast, colon, hematopoietic, lung, pancreas, prostate, and uterus cancer (all classified as cancer on the NCHS list); unintentional transport injury; poisoning; drowning; and falls (all classified as accidents on the NCHS list), were among the 10 leading CODs in several sex and age subgroups. In contrast, several CODs that appeared among the 10 leading CODs according to the NCHS list, such as pneumonia, kidney disease, cirrhosis, and sepsis, were excluded from the 10 leading CODs if the WHO list was used. The rank of Alzheimer disease and related dementias and hypertensive diseases according to the WHO list was higher than their ranks according to the NCHS list. A marked increase in the ranking of unintentional poisoning among men aged 45-64 years was noted from 2008 to 2021.

Conclusions

A dashboard with bump charts can be used to improve the visualization of the changes in the rankings of leading CODs according to the WHO and NCHS lists as well as demographic characteristics; the visualization can help users make informed decisions regarding the most appropriate ranking list for their needs.

Published: May 2023

Background: The success of the hospital industry, especially health services, depends on the participation of nurses in providing quality services to patients. In improving the quality of nurse services, hospital management must maximize nurses’ effectiveness, productivity, and innovation by encouraging positive attitudes in work by increasing nurse engagement. At RSU Aprillia Cilacap, the role of nurses is needed, which is shown through vigor, dedication and absorption.

Objective: This study measured the relationship between the variables of nurse engagement with the performance of nurses in inpatient installations.

Methods: Analytical descriptive quantitative research with cross sectional research design and research sample was 40 nurses.

The study measuring instrument is a questionnaire. The sampling technique used was a survey technique carried out by distributing questionnaires with a Likert Scale, involving the entire research sample. Data analysis used cross-tabulation of respondent characteristics on nurse engagement and nurse performance and bivariate analysis using the Chi-Square test (x2 ).

Results: There is no correlation between vigor and nurse performance (significance value (p) = 0.061 > 0.05), no correlation between dedication and nurse performance (significance value (p)= 0.291 > 0.05), and there is a correlation between absorption and nurse performance (value of significance). significancy (p) = 0.029

< 0.05).

Conclusion: The majority of nurses are at the level of engagement and nurse performance in the medium category. Thus, the manage ment needs to increase the engagement and performance of nurses by implementing nurse engagement with a work contract or MOU for new employees who have completed orientation and old employees who have been appointed as employees. Management needs to do retention so that potential nurses remain obedient and contribute generously to the hospital. The nurse recruitment process requires re-evaluation to obtain quality human resources and have values following the hospital’s vision, mission and goals.

Authors: Luqman Hakim  , Laksono Trisnantoro  , Ni Luh Putu Eka Putri Andayani
Published: May 2023

Background: WHO has designated COVID-19 as a World Public Health Emergency. Success of the district level in handling COVID-19 is determined by the efforts made in these 3 phases: preparedness, response, and recovery. Sleman which has an urban character has its own vulnerabilitie and resources in the COVID-19 pandemic situation.

Objective: This study aimed to obtain an overview of the preparedness, response, and recovery in controlling COVID-19.

Methods: Qualitative research with a case study design in Sleman using the WHO Practical Actions in Cities to Strength Preparedness Checklist for the COVID-19 Pandemic and Beyond. The research subjects are informants who play a role in Task Force. Data were collected by means of documentation studies, observation, and in-depth interviews. Data validation was done by triangulation of sources and research data.

Results: Expert academics and communities are less involved. At the beginning of the pandemic, risk communication was less than optimal to form stakeholder awareness in the government and the community, resulting in poor public compliance with health protocols and public health measures. Mobility restrictions follow national directives. However, compliance monitoring and enforcement of violations are weak. Testing and tracing capacity is still far below the standard. The strategy to increase the capacity of COVID-19 beds in hospitals does not anticipate a surge in cases, and the formation of village shelters has not been maximized.

Conclusion: Planning and coordination require improvement by

taking into account existing vulnerabilities and involving all resources in the community. Risk communication strategies need to be strengthened according to changing situations and tailored to

specific targets using effective media. The government needs to make adjustments to public health measures carefully, taking into

account the epidemiological situation, the capacity of the health system, and the socioeconomic conditions of the community.

Introduction: In the fight against the new coronavirus, prison system workers around the world have faced difficulties, including high risk of contamination, excessive working hours. inadequate and sometimes with ineffective protective measures against virus infection, generating frustration and exhaustion. Factors such as these contribute to emotional exhaustion and an increased risk of psychiatric illness. Based on the scientific evidence, with little to very little research on public prison workers, there are indications to speculate that the mental health condition of prison workers may also be affected during the COVID-19 outbreak. Objective: To evaluate the impacts of the pandemic generated by COVID-19 on the mental health of professionals in the prison system in the city of Maceió/Alagoas. Methodology: This is a prospective descriptive quantitative research. The research was carried out online with the research subjects being workers in the prison system in the city of Maceió. Inclusion criteria include any worker in the prison system in Maceió/Alagoas. Professionals who do not have internet access via cell phone, computer or tablet will be excluded from the survey; professionals with impaired cognitive capacity that prevents them from answering the questionnaire and illiterate professionals. A questionnaire was carried out to characterize the sample with questions about age, biological sex, ethnicity, income, profession, workload, whether you have a diagnosis of anxiety/depression or whether you are undergoing or have undergone psychiatric treatment, who you live with, whether you have /had a family member infected, if he was infected and, finally, if he had to isolate himself from his family for some reason. Results: it is observed that, of the 38 participants, 71.1% (n =27) do not have a diagnosis of anxiety/depression, while 26.3% (n=10) have such a diagnosis. Regarding psychiatric treatment, 73.7% (n=28) do not or have never had it and 23.7% (n=9) have or have already had this treatment. The presence of some degree of anxious mood was answered by 84.2% (n=32), while 15.8% (n=6) denied having this symptom. In addition, symptoms such as tension, insomnia, intellectual difficulties and depressed mood were reported by more than 60% (n=23) of study participants. Conclusion: The effects of the pandemic are perceived even more sensitively in the prison system. The need for confrontation and resolutive measures in the face of the negative repercussions on the mental health of health professionals in the prison system is essential.

Citation use is a significant challenge for Colombian undergraduate English teachers. Continuing the line of inquiry on citation difficulties in nonnative novice writers, the present study aims at describing the main difficulties this group of students have in citing external sources. The analysis was carried out on 30 theoretical framework chapters from their monographs. Findings indicate that (1) Some undergraduate English teachers lack further textual elaboration since they just cite but do not explain or make a comment to complement the external authors’ idea; (2) These undergraduate English teachers lack citation type variety because the predominat citation type is integral citation, turning the disocurse monotonous; (3) These teachers highly employ attribution as the main citation function which indicates an epistemological dependency on key disciplinary authors since external authors’ ideas are duplicated. This study can be used to raise awareness on nonnative undergraduate English teachers towards better citation practices in their disciplinary academic papers, which can be supported by (a) formal direct instruction in writing composition courses, in research tutoring sessions, etc., and in institutional research hotbeds; (b) analysis of experts’ texts to identify and understand the important features of academic English; (c) incorporation of studies like the present one and others in the universiry syllabus of research and writing composition courses.

Fuel Monitoring System
Authors: Palaskar Prof. S. P.
Published: May 2023

Abstract: In recent times, there has been a significant increase in the number of vehicles, particularly those running on fuel. Unfortunately, the rising fuel prices have led to instances where some petrol pump owners attempt to deceive their customers. They manipulate the fuel data or display incorrect information when customers request fuel filling. To address this problem, we have developed a solution called the Smart Fuel Meter, which accurately measures the amount of fuel dispensed into the vehicle's tank and calculates the corresponding cost based on the current fuel price. The Smart Fuel Meter incorporates Internet of Things (IoT) technology, utilizing components such as the ESP12E and an embedded system to enable efficient fuel quantity measurement and fraud detection. To enhance user accessibility and transparency, we have also implemented a web-based interface that allows customers to view real-time data regarding the actual volume of fuel dispensed and the associated cost. This web application updates the fuel price regularly, ensuring accurate cost calculations based on the latest fuel prices.

Authors: Rekha G Prof. Shashi
Published: May 2023

Abstract: The aim of this study is to develop customizedphoto-realistic talking head models, which refers to the creation of systems capable of generating believable video sequences that mimic the speech expressions and facial movements of a specific person. The authors propose a system that can produce talking head models using just a few photographs, a technique known as "few-shot learning," and with minimal training time. This system is capable of generating a plausible outcome using just one photograph, and additional photographs enhance the level of personalization. The authors present a system that can perform few-shot learning by conducting meta-learning on a vast collection of videos, which allows it to address the neural talking head models of new and unseen individuals as adversarial training problems with high-capacity generators and discriminators. The system can personalize both the generator and the discriminator's parameters based on each person, enabling training to be performed quickly with only a few images, despite the need to fine-tune millions of parameters.
