Published: August 2023

Background: The health of nursing students are affected by different stressors. The perception of and the ability to handle the stress depends on their coping styles.
Objectives: To find the prevalence of stress and factors associated with stress and coping mechanisms among B.Sc. nursing students of Nursing College, at Bankura, West Bengal.
Methodology: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted among 201 B.Sc. nursing students of a tertiary care centre at Bankura using self-administered questionnaire, PSS-10 and Brief-COPE inventory. Association between categorical data were analysed using chi square test. Correlation between two quantitative variables was tested using Spearman’s rank correlation, while Mann Whitney U test was performed to compare the differences between two groups.
Results: Proportion of participants with low, moderate and high perceived stress were 18.9%, 67.2% and 13.9% respectively. Higher academic year, opting career by compulsion, history of long-term illness and receiving no support from family were associated with high stress. There was significant positive correlation between age, problem focused coping, avoidant coping, adaptive coping and maladaptive coping scores with PSS-10.
Conclusions: Complete stress-free nursing career might be a stretch, but it is imperative to identify the stressors to alleviate the level of perceived stress among the nursing students.

Artificial Intelligence and Graphic Design
Authors: Blazhev Boyan
Published: August 2023

The connection between artificial intelligence (AI) and graphic design is close and increasingly significant in the world of technology and creativity. Graphic design involves the use of various elements, such as images, text, and color, to create visual communication. This process is often slow and laborious. Artificial intelligence can be useful to automate these processes and improve the efficiency of design work. Artificial intelligence in the modern era is a powerful weapon for creating new graphic elements, improving the quality of designs and analyzing user behavior. In the future, it is expected that these capabilities will develop and new ways to use artificial intelligence in graphic design will appear, but one should not forget the dangers that this spanless new tool hides.

La voz del paciente nos ayuda a aprender
Authors: Fernández Casalderrey Carmen , Climent Durán Marina
Published: August 2023

Se ofrecen herramientas (análisis de videograbación, trabajo en grupo, juego de roles, y feedback constructivo) para la docencia en entrevista clínica, usando como ejemplo las escenas videograbadas en un documental (El arte de escuchar de paciente a persona) en el que se recogen las opiniones de los pacientes. En paralelo, y con el apoyo de diversos vídeos del documental, se dan pistas para trabajar diferentes técnicas de entrevista clínica: recibimiento, generar confianza, informar, escuchar y ser empáticos.

Aunque el trabajo está orientado básicamente para la docencia en entrevista clínica, el clínico no docente, al escuchar las necesidades expresadas por los pacientes en los vídeos y leer y repasar las principales técnicas de comunicación en las diferentes fases de la entrevista, puede completar su formación en aspectos necesarios de la comunicación con sus pacientes.
La ecocardioscopia en los soplos
Authors: Díaz Sánchez Santiago , Rodríguez Báscones Almudena
Published: August 2023

Se ha de integrar la ecocardioscopia con el resto de las técnicas de exploración cardiológica: auscultación, electrocardiografía y radiografía de tórax.
Las dos causas más frecuentes de las valvulopatías son la degenerativa (países desarrollados) y la reumática (países en vías de desarrollo).
Se ha de sospechar la existencia de una valvulopatía significativa ante la auscultación de soplos en cualquiera de los grandes síndromes cardiológicos, o incluso en pacientes asintomáticos, pero con un elevado riesgo cardiovascular.
La correcta evaluación de las válvulas cardíacas obliga a su estudio en, al menos, dos planos.
La correcta valoración de una valvulopatía incluye: evaluar su morfología, determinar la repercusión en las cámaras cardíacas y analizar los flujos transvalvulares.
Las calcificaciones de las válvulas mitral y aórtica son frecuentes a partir de los 65 años y una constante a partir de los 80; lo cual no implica que sean disfuncionales.
La ecocardioscopia permite establecer si una valvulopatía es significativa, pero no cuantificar con precisión el grado de gravedad.
La gravedad de una valvulopatía y su indicación quirúrgica han de establecerse a partir de estudios ecocardiográficos reglados.

Published: August 2023

O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar os efeitos da reforma agrária, das incidências pluviométricas e da concessão de crédito sobre a renda rural. Foi utilizada a metodologia de Mínimos Quadrados Generalizados Quase Factíveis (MQGF). Os dados utilizados formam um painel para os estados da federação, entre os anos de 1999 e 2009. Os resultados apontam uma relação positiva e significativa entre os índices de chuvas e a renda, assim como o crédito e a renda. Todavia a variável terra apontou-se como não significativa para geração de renda. Assim, políticas de incentivo ao crédito rural e anos com maiores indecências de chuvas colaborarão para o alcance de maiores níveis de renda rural.

Brand Experience on Brand Loyalty through Brand Satisfaction and Brand Trust: Study on Altex Cat Customers in East Java
Authors: Mustajab Duta
Published: August 2023

The paint industry in Indonesia is facing fierce competition from competitors and increasingly selective consumers. In this context, PT Atlantic Ocean Paint, a prominent company known for its product Altex, aims to understand customer needs and create positive brand experiences to foster brand loyalty and boost sales. This study, conducted in Papua Province, Indonesia, with 200 participants from various cities, explores how brand experience, brand satisfaction, and brand trust influence brand loyalty. Data was collected through a structured research instrument with validated scales for the mentioned variables. The findings indicate that brand experience directly affects brand satisfaction but not brand trust. Brand satisfaction, in turn, influences both brand trust and brand loyalty. However, brand experience does not have a direct impact on brand loyalty. Nevertheless, there is an indirect influence, as brand experience significantly affects brand loyalty through brand satisfaction and brand trust. By grasping these insights, PT Atlantic Ocean Paint can effectively enhance customer loyalty and improve its competitive edge in the challenging paint market in Indonesia.

Published: August 2023

A partir da segunda metade do século XX, a população brasileira passou por mudanças socioeconômicas e processos de modernização que refletiram diretamente na taxa de natalidade e de mortalidade da população (VASCONCELOS E GOMES, 2012), sendo observada queda da mortalidade infantil e da fecundidade, aumento da expectativa de vida, além de movimentos migratórios e de urbanização que impactaram na densidade populacional (IBGE, 2010, 2022).

A transição do cuidado deve ser organizada de maneira integrada, os cuidados precisam ser coordenados em rede, ao longo do percurso assistencial, desde a entrada do paciente no sistema até os cuidados ao fim da vida (VERAS et al., 2013). METODO: Estudo do tipo descritivo com abordagem qualitativa. Tendo como cenário o SAD. Em 2022 visando otimizar os leitos hospitalares do município foi criado uma equipe transição de cuidados que diariamente.           O resultado da experiência inovadora da EMAD-TC no CHC nos mostrou que, entre 10/02/22 e 30/11/22 foram corridos 3094 leitos, destes 1078 não elegíveis, 1015 permaneciam em propedêutica na unidade hospitalar, com indicação para SAD e transitamos para o domicílio, o total de 1001 usuários. Em sua maioria apresentavam lesão cutânea, infecções do trato urinário, dependiam de equipamentos para manutenção de vida, ou precisavam de reabilitação. CONCLUSÃO: A implementação da EMAD Transição do Cuidado trouxe às portas de urgência e do complexo hospitalar mais uma oportunidade de atender o usuário integralmente, em suas diversas demandas de saúde, possibilitando seu retorno para casa com mais brevidade.

Expanding Land-grant Universities’ Community Engagement: An Exploration of the Transformational Factors Affecting the Performance of Intercollegiate Extension Programs
Authors: Caillouet Olivia , Harder Amy , Bunch J.C. , Roberts Grady , Radunovich Heidi
Published: August 2023

University engagement in community settings is increasingly valued and expected. Extension efforts vary slightly from community engagement conducted at private institutions but the ultimate goal has been focused on a stronger level of societal relevance that improves both society and the overarching goals of higher education. The Organizational Change model helped frame the discussion of external or internal forces that would create opportunities or barriers for intercollegiate Extension programs. The research question was developed to explore how transformational factors influence the success or failure of intercollegiate Extension programs. A qualitative, phenomenological approach was used, and eight interview transcripts were analyzed. Participants were required to be Extension employees who had experience with an intercollegiate Extension program. Data were analyzed using the template analysis and the constant comparative method. Findings reported that transformational factors were: (a) financial needs of intercollegiate programs exceed what is commonly available through internal funding, (b) promoting access to higher education and serving the public, (c) leaders recognizing the potential of intercollegiate Extension programs to help improve the reputation and visibility of the university as a whole, and (d) changing culture to integrate intercollegiate Extension programs. Nevertheless, more research is needed to better understand these non-traditional programs.
Clusters of re-use: the late Roman Wall and the Unfinished Baths of Lepcis Magna
Authors: Bigi Francesca
Published: August 2023

Lepcis Magna is a privileged site for investigating re-use in all its forms, and this paper focuses on the materials which are to be found recycled in two late-antique contexts: the late Roman defensive circuit and the so-called Unfinished Baths. In both contexts, the architects made use of a multitude of older elements, mostly architectural and epigraphic, many of which are still unpublished. These are discussed here for the first time in an attempt to investigate their character, their original provenance and in which ways they were employed within these new settings.

Three monuments to Rhodopaios: a case study of re-use and continuity at Aphrodisias in the sixth century
Authors: Lenaghan Julia
Published: August 2023

The honorific monuments erected in late antiquity in the city of Aphrodisias are striking in their preservation and in their appearance. Two scholars, Charlotte Roueché and R.R.R. Smith, have provided full and ground-breaking publications of these monuments and have extracted important information from careful study of the epigraphic and sculptural elements. Further study conducted under the aegis of Smith and B. Ward-Perkins in the Last Statues of Antiquity Project, has grounded these monuments in the larger, empire-wide context of late antiquity. These fine academic studies have made these late Aphrodisian honours points of reference. Without the work of these distinguished scholars, this paper would not be possible or relevant. This paper seeks merely to focus attention on small details of structure, technique, and iconography in an attempt to sharpen our vision of the very last of these monuments. It endeavours to distinguish tendencies specific to the sixth-century honorific statuary habit at Aphrodisias and to understand the concept of re-use and recycling in that last moment of the statue culture in this conservative city, by looking at three monuments dedicated to the same man in the last moments of the habit. These are three statues monuments to one Rhodopaios of the second quarter of the sixth century, preserved in different states. The paper is divided into three parts; an introduction that considers the main trends of honorific statuary, the presentation of the three monuments of Rhodopaios, and a conclusion.

The jewellery from grave 10 of Pontezuelas in Colonia Augusta Emerita (Mérida, Spain): family heirlooms?
Authors: Barrero Martin Nova
Published: August 2023

Between 1934 and 1936, the archaeologist Antonio Floriano directed excavations in the city of Mérida, the ancient colony Augusta Emerita. Some years later, once the Civil War had ended, he published a good deal of the finds. These included the explorations conducted in the Oriental Necropolis of the city, an area whose extent he established and considered as a whole for the first time. Grave-goods from this cemetery were recorded, including the so-called Grave 10 of Pontezuelas. The grave is pinpointed on the published excavation plan and the grave-goods listed, but no mention is made of the context of their find. This highly interesting assemblage is particularly opulent due to the gold jewellery it contains. Especially noteworthy is a bracelet combining pairs of gold hemispheres—in the style of well-known examples from Pompeii but technically very dissimilar—with jet beads, some of which follow the model of the gold pieces. Other pieces consist of a ring with a highly original sandal-shaped bezel whose closest reference is to sandal-shaped fibulae known in the provinces of the limes, from Britannia to Pannonia; several hollow pieces; an earring; and a brooch. Various considerations point to the broad timespan of the types of jewellery in the assemblage and could indicate that they represent family heirlooms, brought together over a lengthy period of time (perhaps spanning over a century), passed on from generation to generation.

The construction of other genders by means of personal appearance in medieval Islam: the case of mukhannathūn (effeminates) and kuntha (hermaphrodites)
Authors: Hirsch Hadas
Published: August 2023

This article focuses on two variations from the Muslim patriarchal binary system of females and males: mukhannathūn (those who display female behaviour and appearance while having male sex organs) and khuntha (those with a lack of or confused sex organs). These two categories were tolerated and represent an extension of the normative expected sex-gender spectrum of Islam. Personal appearance, in its broad meaning, is used as a tool for analysing the social-religious existence of mukhannathūn and khuntha within the community. The article concludes that jurists imposed a whole set of regulations, mixing male and female appearance, for the purpose of defining and differentiating these groups. These laws also enabled the religious and social existence of mukhannathūn and khuntha within Muslim communities. The patriarchal system preserved its power and protected itself while widening the binary male-female spectrum to include variations such as medial sex.

This study aims to analyze and compare the performance of three main classification models, namely Random Forest Classifier, Support Vector Machine, and Artificial Neural Network, in classifying Multiclass brain tumors based on MRI images. The research method includes exploratory data analysis (EDA), dataset preprocessing with image segmentation using the Canny method, and feature extraction using the Humoment method. The performance of the classification models is evaluated based on accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score. The analysis results show variations in the performance of the three classification models, with Random Forest Classifier having an accuracy of 0.7, weighted precision of 0.55, weighted recall of 0.7, and weighted F1 score of 0.59; Support Vector Machine having an accuracy of 0.71, weighted precision of 0.5, weighted recall of 0.71, and weighted F1 score of 0.59; and Artificial Neural Network having an accuracy of 0.62, weighted precision of 0.6, weighted recall of 0.62, and weighted F1 score of 0.61. Visualization using box plots also reveals outliers in the performance of the three models. These findings indicate variations and outliers in the performance of the classification models for Multiclass brain tumor classification. Further analysis is needed to understand the factors that influence performance differences and identify ways to improve the classification model performance for brain tumor diagnosis based on MRI images

Published: August 2023

This research aims to analyze the performance of three classification models, namely Decision Tree Classifier, Support Vector Machine, and Naive Bayes Classifier, in predicting lung cancer using the "Lung Cancer Prediction" dataset. The performance evaluation metrics used include accuracy, precision weighted, recall weighted, and F1 weighted. As a preliminary step, exploratory data analysis (EDA) and dataset preprocessing, including feature selection, data cleaning, and data transformation, were conducted. The test data results showed that the Decision Tree Classifier and Naive Bayes Classifier had similar performances with high accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 values. Meanwhile, the Support Vector Machine also exhibited competitive performance, although its precision weighted value was slightly lower. Additionally, an outlier analysis was conducted using box plots, revealing that the Decision Tree Classifier had 2 outlier values, while the Support Vector Machine had 4 outlier values, and Naive Bayes had no outlier values. In conclusion, all three classification models demonstrated good potential in lung cancer prediction. However, selecting the best model requires consideration of relevant evaluation metrics for the application and accommodating the limitations of each model. Further evaluation and in-depth analysis are needed to ensure the reliability of the models in predicting lung cancer cases more accurately and consistently.
Utiliser les habiletés de pensée pour enseigner le raisonnement clinique : l’approche CREATS
Authors: CHEVALLIER F , RUELLE Y
Published: August 2023

Le raisonnement clinique est une tâche complexe qui met en jeu des mécanismes variés1,2. Le raisonnement passe par des étapes de recueil de données, de génération d’hypothèses avec l’association potentielle d’un raisonnement analytique et non analytique (par exemple la reconnaissance de forme) puis de vérification de ces hypothèses. La démarche est d’autant plus complexe qu’elle n’est pas linéaire. Ces mécanismes peuvent être pris en défaut (difficultés dans la génération d’hypothèses, fermeture prématurée des hypothèses, difficultés de priorisation, difficulté à élaborer un portrait global de la situation clinique, difficulté à élaborer un plan d’intervention) et être source d’erreurs médicales3. Son enseignement nécessite une démarche adaptée4.

Le Récit de situation complexe et authentique (RSCA) est un outil d’évaluation de la compétence fréquemment utilisé dans le cadre de la formation au Diplôme d’études spécialisées (DES) de médecine générale1,2. Il participe ainsi à alimenter le portfolio des étudiants. Selon Naccache et al., « le portfolio est une collection de travaux et de réflexions d’un étudiant, qui rassemble des informations sur les compétences qu’il a développées. Il peut être utilisé comme source d’information dans le cadre de la démarche évaluative »3. C’est dans cette perspective que le Département de médecine générale (DMG) de l’Université de Versailles-Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines (UVSQ) a mis au point un portfolio électronique, afin de faciliter la certification des compétences.

Along with developments in this era of globalization, it is the hope of each individual to look at a bright future with diverse human life conditions by fulfilling various existing needs, Islam is present which offers a concept in growing and developing the communitys economy so as to create social welfare as a whole. This concept does not only apply to Muslims, but also to all individuals on this earth because it is in line with the definition of Islam as a religion that is rahmatan lil alamin, which means Grace to all nature. The emergence of Islamic economics is aimed at building an economic framework based on religious sources so that a state economic order is formed based on justice as well as equality for the birth of a civilized society under the protection of Allah SWT. Every human activity in Islam has a principle with a measurement of the value of his merits and sins. Everything that is done by humans and has the value of worship will get a reward, and everything that contains the value of harm or harms one party will be worth a sin in the eyes of the creator. In life and quality formation of human character, Islam bases economic development on the formation of each individual who is directed to God as controlling every human action in daily mu'amalah. people who prioritize economic changes only with spiritual matters, they still deviate from God's law, each economic actor and government play an important role in creating prosperity in every level of society.

Purpose: This study aimed to determine the appropriate number of turns required for an Esmarch tourniquet, using commonly sized Esmarch bandages, to achieve a pressure target of at least 150 mm Hg during pediatric upper extremity surgery.
Methods: Twenty participants who underwent upper extremity surgery were included in the study. Two surgeons used 2- and 3-inch-sized Esmarch bandages to apply an Esmarch tourniquet to each participant’s arm. The pressure and number of turns were recorded from the second to fifth turns. The pressure was measured using a pressure sensor device.
Results: At the third turn of both the 2- and 3-inch-sized Esmarch bandages, a 150 mm Hg pressure was achieved in all participants. Intra-observer reliability resulted was “good”; however, inter-observer revealed “poor” reliability.
Conclusions: The Esmarch tourniquet is an effective and safe method for creating a bloodless operative field for upper extremity surgery in pediatric patients. The results of this present study suggested the application of three turns of the 2- and 3-inch-sized Esmarch bandages.
