Published: July 2023

The objective of this research is to analyze the conceptions that students of the Second Cycle Primary Education degree have on the didactics of the language, in the light of the graduate profile of the Salomé Ureña Higher Institute of Teacher Training (ISFODOSU) and the teaching profile required by the Dominican educational system. The methodological approach is based on the qualitative paradigm. A questionnaire of ten open questions was applied to four groups of students selected under an intentional sampling. An analysis matrix with ten dimensions and four domain levels was designed in order to facilitate the grouping of qualitative coding. The data collected was processed through the MAXQDA 2020 program to ensure consistency and quality. The main findings place the students in an instrumentalist conception of language and in transition towards the epistemic conception. In addition, they are aware of the approach that prevails in the curricular design of their country and they conceive the teaching of the language related to the communicative approach, which is evidenced through a set of methodological applications related to the development of language skills from different discursive genres.

Published: July 2023

Inadequate breastfeeding leads to a lack of nutritional intake by infants. Reduced breast milk secretion can be caused by psychological and physiological factors. Not getting enough breast milk can increase the risk of gastrointestinal infections, and obesity in babies. It can also reduce the level of intelligence of children, and increase infant mortality. This study was a literature review with a sample of 10 journals, including ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Google Scholar. The keywords fenugreek OR trigonellas OR Foenumgraceum AND acupressure OR shiatsu OR zhi ya OR chih ya AND feeding OR breastfeeding AND breastfeeding OR milk secretion AND breast milk OR breast milk were used. The exclusion criteria were publications that were older than 10 years, those with irrelevant titles, inaccessible full text, in a language other than English and Indonesian, had the incorrect population, not an RCT journal, was a case-control study, and a quasi-experimental study. The results showed that from a total of 10 journals, fenugreek therapy was found in journal numbers 1 (Egyptian), 2 (Iranian), 3 (Egyptian), and 4 (Indian). Increased breast milk production had a p-value <0.005, but journal number 2 was considered the most effective as an increase in breast milk can be seen from the increase in variables in infants. Acupressure therapy in journals number 6 (Iranian), 7 (Indonesian), 8 (Indonesian) and 10 (Indonesian) was also equally significant in increasing breast milk production with p-value <0.005, but in journal number 10, presenting ST points 17 and ST 18 which was done every 2 days for 2 weeks showed a significantly higher value. To conclude, fenugreek and acupressure both contribute to increasing breast milk production.

One of the primary services at the physiotherapy clinic of UMM Hospital is post-stroke rehabilitation. The hospital is fully equipped with the infrastructure that supports these services, including the availability of static cycles, IR, and diathermy. Post-stroke rehabilitation services have been conducted since June 2013, however, since the establishment of the clinic, levels of patient satisfaction have not been evaluated. Assessment of client satisfaction is important because, in the future, the clinic will be a place of reference for physiotherapy students about post-stroke rehabilitation and providing excellent service to clients. This study used the SERVQUAL (Service Quality) method which involves the assessment of the aspects of tangibility, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy, to assess the level of patient satisfaction with different services. The study was conducted on all patients who come to the clinic between March and May 2015. The sample size was 20 patients. We identified the patient’s expectations and perception of clinic physiotherapy at the clinic and compared it to the results of the SERVQUAL performance assessment. Based on the results of the study, it was found that the majority of respondents were unsatisfied with the services at the physiotherapy clinic, due to the limitations of the physiotherapists’ abilities, long waiting times for services, and lack of on-call physiotherapists. In addition, there are patient complaints about the lack of equipment at the clinic. However, patients were very satisfied with the safety and comfort of the therapy services, this is influenced by the abilities of qualified physiotherapists who are able to resolve complaints We suggest that the clinic needs to increase the number of physiotherapists in this clinic, and it is necessary to make updates to the existing physiotherapy equipment.

Cirrhosis is the final stage of chronic liver disease caused by fibrosis which decreases the function and changes the shape and structure of the liver. Portal hypertension is an essential pathophysiology of cirrhosis, which can lead to an increased risk of death in patients resulting in very detrimental complications originating from portal obstruction of blood flow, such as cirrhosis or blockage of blood vessels. According to the EASL guidelines, non-selective β-blocker therapy such as propranolol can reduce portal pressure by reducing the portal venous flow through two mechanisms: decreased cardiac output and decreased splanchnic blood flow. This study aimed to determine the pattern of using propranolol in patients with liver cirrhosis in Sidoarjo Hospital. This was an observational study with a retrospective approach in cirrhosis patients with portal hypertension from 1st January 2021 until 31st December 2021. The Patient Medication Records (PMR) data was obtained from 15 male patients (68%), with the most age ranging from 56 to 65 years old (37%). The pattern of using single therapy was in 22 patients (100%). The highest use of single treatment was Propranolol (3×10 mg) with 12 patients (52%), Propranolol (2x10 mg) with ten patients (43%), and Propranolol (2x40 mg) with only one patient (5%).

This study aimed to design a prototype application for online patient registration at the Malang City Health Center. The method used is Research and Development Prototyping. The manufacturing stages start from (1) the identification of basic needs, (2) developing a working prototype, (3) using a prototype (trial), and (4) revising and improving the prototype. The instrument used in this study was an interview guide conducted with two Heads of PHC (Dinoyo and Rampal Celaket) and nine Registration Officers at two Health Centers to determine the need for designing a prototype online registration application. Observations were made regarding the existing IT systems (Hardware and Software) in both PHC, the facilities and infrastructure that support IT systems (rooms, internet networks, etc.) and the documents supporting the processes. The results of this prototype design were in the form of a list of functional and non-functional requirements, business process flow diagrams, data flow diagrams, Entity Relationship Diagrams, and Interface Design, including programming language and user interface. Based on the results of the online patient registration prototype design, it enters the initial stage of using a system design that is by user needs but has yet to reach the implementation stage. However, this prototype can be used as a reference in developing an integrated online registration system with existing information systems at the PHC.

The Identity Social of Tax Compliance: How it Impacts Manufacturing Business
Authors: Dwianika Agustine , Paramita Sofia Irma , . Nur Uddin , Retnaningtyas Ika
Published: July 2023

This paper used a qualitative method to investigate the impacts of manufacturer’s social identity on their tax attitudes and how these effects affect firm’s tax compliance. The data from 101 respondents reported that membership and identity affect their firm’s tax compliance, but not private and public collective self-esteem. The result showed that dependence on the community and stakeholder views on corporate identity are considered important by companies to increase public trust. Meanwhile, private and public collective self-esteem were no longer the key. It implies that the former is more likely to have a higher cost of tax collection to represent tax compliance, which may restrict funds for their public sector and adversely affects its functionality. This is consistent with the previous findings that identify socially impacted tax compliance, instead of self-esteem. Research results for manufacturing managers related to strengthening social identity factors in order to improve overall corporate tax compliance, such as joining tax communities, professional membership’s and the like. By having a clear social identity, managers have channels to discuss tax issues and find solutions to tax problems more easily.

Published: July 2023

The conducted research on geological structure and material composition of the Siberian platform kimberlites indicated the complexity and diversity of geologic-tectonic and paleogeographic conditions which should be considered when performing the prediction-prospecting works for diamonds in every particular region. The geological-geophysical and geomorphological occurence conditions of kimberlite diatremes determine the mode of their prediction and prospecting. The knowledge on the material composition of not only desired diatremes but also of sedimentary and magmatic formations enclosing and overlying diatremes is an important criterion for prospecting of kimberlite bodies in various geologic-tectonic conditions. Special attention should be paid to typomorphic features of both initial and newly-formed minerals in diatremes. Every diamondiferous region is characterized by a certain complex of typomorphic associations of primary and secondary minerals of kimberlites. The majority of kimberlite pipes are dominated by diamonds with an ultrabasic association of solid intrusion phases (olivine, chromite, pyrope, etc.).

Introduction: New evidence and extrapolated data from other coronaviruses suggest that symptoms and consequences of COVID-19 may persist beyond the cure. The aims of this study were to evaluate persistent symptoms after SARS-CoV-2 infection and its impact on physical condition, activities of daily living, and quality-of-life; establish whether symptom persistence is associated with higher disability; and document the evolution of the multiple domains after a home exercise program.Methods: Prospective study with patients referred to a Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine clinic, after SARS-CoV-2 infection. Patient evaluations, including a symptom questionnaire, the 1-Min Sit-to-stand test (1-MSTS), the EQ-5D questionnaire and the London Chest Activity Daily Living (LCA-DL) questionnaire, were performed before and after a home exercise program.Results: Seventy-four patients were included. The majority (n = 71) had been hospitalized (mean stay 19.66 ± 13.35 days), 51% required intensive care. At first evaluation, 54 days after symptom onset, a mean of 18.6 repetitions in the 1-MSTS were performed. The percentage of LCA-DL was above 28% in 23% of the patients. Impairments on EQ-5D were present in 44% for mobility and 44% for anxiety/depression. Mean EQ-5D VAS was 66.5 out of 100. Fifty-one (70%) had at least one persistent symptom (Symptomatic Group), while 22 (30%) were asymptomatic (Asymptomatic Group). The Symptomatic Group had statistically significantly worse mean results on 1-MSTS (16.8 vs 22.9; p < 0.001), % LCA-DL score, EQ-D5 (7.8 vs 5.7; p < 0.001) and EQ-D5-VAS. No patient characteristic, clinical background, comorbidity, or hospitalization characteristics was significantly different between groups. Every patient was given a home exercise program; 47 patients joined an additional rehabilitation program or were clinically discharged and were therefore excluded from the second evaluation. Twenty-seven patients participated in a second evaluation. In the matched analysis, mean 1-MSTS improved by 3.4 repetitions. Mean LCA-DL, mean EQ-5D score (7.1 to 6.6) and EQ-VAS score changed favourably and significantly.Conclusion: Two months after infection by SARS-CoV-2, persistent symptoms were frequent in patients referred to a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation clinic. Additionally, the SARS-CoV-2 infection, as well as the persistence of symptoms, had a negative impact in the physical condition and functionality in ADL and quality-of-life. With a home exercise program in place, a statistically significant improvement was observed. Referral of patients with persistent symptoms to Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine may be warranted.

In this short note we study a dynamical system generated by a two-parametric quadratic operator mapping a 3-dimensional simplex to itself. This is an evolution operator of the frequencies of gametes in a two-locus system. We find the set of all (a continuum set of) fixed points and show that each fixed point is nonhyperbolic. We completely describe the set of all limit points of the dynamical system. Namely, for any initial point (taken from the 3-dimensional simplex) we find an invariant set containing the initial point and a unique fixed point of the operator, such that the trajectory of the initial point converges to this fixed point.

This research focuses on the development of a foot-worn device to assist individuals with limited mobility in walking. The device aims to reduce the risk of accidents by closely moni-toring the wearer's movements and detecting potential hazards. It incorporates sensors, in-cluding the MPU6050 gyro sensor and KY-031 vibration sensor, to track the wearer's walking behavior. In case of abnormalities, such as falls, the device triggers an auditory alert and noti-fies the caregiver via LINE Notify. The system is controlled by the Node MCU ESP8266, enabling seamless integration with the Internet of Things (IoT). The objective of this study is to design an IoT system for medical assistance. The researchers created a prototype of a smart ankle device capable of detecting falls and sending notifications to the user's smartphone. The effectiveness of the notification system was evaluated using the Line Notify application. Re-sults demonstrated a successful detection of falls in 48 out of 50 trials, with two instances of false alarms during normal walking. The overall efficiency of the smart ankle device was 98%. In summary, the proposed smart ankle device demonstrates promising potential for var-ious applications in fall detection and safety alert systems. Further improvements and collab-orations with healthcare experts are recommended to enhance its performance and make it commercially viable. The device's connectivity and responsiveness to IoT systems are vital aspects to be considered. Future research should aim to develop additional features in collab-oration with physiotherapists and healthcare professionals to meet user requirements. The de-vice holds significant benefits in terms of fall detection and safety alerts, and efforts should be made to enhance its durability, robustness, and commercialization prospects.

Plant-pathogen interactions are governed by the ability of phytopathogens to utilize specialized infection structures and effectors for successful invasion. The rice blast disease, caused by the fungus Magnaporthe oryzae, poses a significant threat to global food production. In this study, we investigate the role of a novel apoplastic effector, peg periphery-localized effector (Ppe), in M. oryzae invasion. We demonstrate that Ppe is specifically expressed during plant infection and exhibits dynamic spatiotemporal localizations. It is preferentially localized to a ring structure at the collar of penetration peg formed by appressoria or transpressoria although occasionally observed in vesicle-like structures within the biotrophic interfacial complex (BIC). Through the unconventional secretion pathway involving the exocyst complex and t-SNAREs, Ppe is delivered to the rice apoplastic interface. Genetic analysis reveals that while the Δppe mutant does not exhibit developmental differences compared to the wild type, it displays reduced pathogenicity due to defects in rice penetration and expansion. Furthermore, Ppe suppresses the expression of plant defense-related genes and attenuates callose deposition at plasmodesmata, thereby facilitating fungal invasion. Our findings highlight the key role of Ppe as a novel effector in M. oryzae invasion and emphasize the significance of the peg as an infection structure and effector deployment site for overcoming host defense responses.
