BACKGROUND

Previous conventional models for the prediction of diabetes could be updated by incorporating the increasing amount of health data available and new risk prediction methodology.

OBJECTIVE

We aimed to develop a substantially improved diabetes risk prediction model using sophisticated machine-learning algorithms based on a large retrospective population cohort of over 230,000 people who were enrolled in the study during 2006-2017.

METHODS

We collected demographic, medical, behavioral, and incidence data for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in over 236,684 diabetes-free participants recruited from the 45 and Up Study. We predicted and compared the risk of diabetes onset in these participants at 3, 5, 7, and 10 years based on three machine-learning approaches and the conventional regression model.

RESULTS

Overall, 6.05% (14,313/236,684) of the participants developed T2DM during an average 8.8-year follow-up period. The 10-year diabetes incidence in men was 8.30% (8.08%-8.49%), which was significantly higher (odds ratio 1.37, 95% CI 1.32-1.41) than that in women at 6.20% (6.00%-6.40%). The incidence of T2DM was doubled in individuals with obesity (men: 17.78% [17.05%-18.43%]; women: 14.59% [13.99%-15.17%]) compared with that of nonobese individuals. The gradient boosting machine model showed the best performance among the four models (area under the curve of 79% in 3-year prediction and 75% in 10-year prediction). All machine-learning models predicted BMI as the most significant factor contributing to diabetes onset, which explained 12%-50% of the variance in the prediction of diabetes. The model predicted that if BMI in obese and overweight participants could be hypothetically reduced to a healthy range, the 10-year probability of diabetes onset would be significantly reduced from 8.3% to 2.8% (P<.001).

CONCLUSIONS

A one-time self-reported survey can accurately predict the risk of diabetes using a machine-learning approach. Achieving a healthy BMI can significantly reduce the risk of developing T2DM.

One of the daily living skills that is less acquired by the intellectually disabled children is dressing skill. Mother of the intellectually disabled children very often assist them to put on their dresses. Their mothers are often reluctant to train them to put on their attires appropriately by themselves due to the lack of information on the ways to train appropriate dressing. The objective of this study was to validate guide book AMAN (Anak MAndiri berpakaiaN), which was aimed to be used by mothers to train the self dressing skill to their intellectually disabled children. The validating process of the book was done by applying content validity test by involving 7 expert panelists who scored the contents of the guide book. The implementation of this guide book was studied using quasi experiment method with one group pretest-posttest design involving 15 subjects. The findings indicated that the guide book AMAN has a significant content validity with V values ranging from 0.71 to 0.91 on each aspect of its content. The guide book AMAN potentially increased the parents’ knowledge in training dressing skills to intellectually disabled children with z value of -3.205 (p < 0.05).

The number of negative impacts caused by CSA makes it still need serious treatment. Mother as the closest environment of early childhood should be able to be a preventive agent of CSA. In fact, there was still many mothers who do not have knowledge dan skill regarding CSA prevention on children. Therefore, a program was needed to improve the knowledge and skills of parents through the “PILAR” program (Skilled-Taught Self Protection Skill). This study aimed to validate the “PILAR”program through content validation with professional judgement and empirical validation with training using the one pretest and posttest group design. The result showed that knowledge about CSA prevention improves significantly after being given training with Z = -2.952, p = 0.003 (p < 0.01) and CSA prevention skills improve significantly with Z = -2.952, p = 0.003 (p < 0.01). It meant that the program of “PILAR” was able to improve the knowledge and skills of mothers in performing prevention of CSA.

Aim: Postconcussion symptom-rating scales are frequently used concussion assessment tools that do not align directly with new expert, consensus-based concussion subtype classification systems. This may result in delays in concussion diagnosis, subspecialty referral and rehabilitative strategies. Objective: To determine the representation of subtype-directed symptomatology in common postconcussion symptom-rating scales. Methods: Literature review and expert consensus were used to compile commonly used concussion symptom-rating scales. Statistics were generated to describe the degree of representation of the consensus symptom set. Results: The percentage of symptoms representing each subtype/associated condition is low overall (15–26%). The ocular-motor (11%) and vestibular subtypes (19%) and cervical strain (5%)-associated condition were the most under-represented and also had the greatest unmet needs. Conclusion: Concussion subtypes do not have equal representation on commonly used concussion symptom-rating scales. There is a need for a subtype-directed symptom assessment to allow for increased accuracy of diagnosis and to guide management.
ACCESSING GENETIC KNOWLEDGE: A CASE FOR A HUMANIST VIRTUE ETHICS
Authors: Flaherty Devin
Published: November 2019

This essay presents an ethical argument for the value of taking a theoretical perspective that privileges the particularities of individual lived experience over a priori categories of subjecthood. This argument is made through the examination of one practice – disclosure – among American patients who have recently been diagnosed with Huntington’s disease, a fatal genetic disorder. Disclosure is understood in this context as the expected sharing of a Huntington’s disease diagnosis by the patient with those close to her (primarily family). It is modeled on the practice in which a medical professional informs a patient of her diagnosis. Through advancing an account of disclosure that constitutes it as an ethically obligatory practice within the realm of bioethics, the essay demonstrates that a particular set of ethical priorities is assumed by insisting on the salience of disclosure in the lives of patients diagnosed with Huntington’s disease. Two case studies are presented to illustrate that patients’ lived experience in the wake of a Hunting ton’s disease diagnosis does not necessarily include disclosure as an ethically important practice.

Remembering the Gulag in post-Soviet Magadan
Authors: Prell Norman
Published: November 2019

This essay explores the relationship between place and memory in the former Gulag periphery of Magadan in northeastern Russia. Located on the coast of the Okhotsk Sea, the city of Magadan emerged as a gateway to the sparsely populated region after the discovery of gold in the late 1920s. Today, a huge monument, the Mask of Sorrow, raised upon a hill on the margin of the city, commemorates the hundreds of thousands of prison- ers who were shipped to Magadan during the dictatorship of Stalin to work in the region’s newly established gold mines. Crucial to the region’s development was the construction of the legendary Kolyma Road between the port of Magadan and the industrial areas at the up- per Kolyma River. Built by prisoners under the most adverse conditions, this road is often referred to as ‘Road of Bones’. This essay demonstrates how the Mask of Sorrow and the Kolyma Road, during particular commemorative events, participate in the enactment of a historical landscape that bears the potential for a ritual return of the victims of the Gulag.
Ancestor Worship and Disrupted Continuity among Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in Georgia
Authors: Chabukiani Nana
Published: November 2019

Due to the Russian-Georgian military conflict in 2008, thousands of eth- nic Georgians had to flee from their villages in South Ossetia and move to new settlements built for what were now termed internally displaced persons (IDPs). Through displace- ment, IDPs lost their connection with their places of origin and, consequently, their con- nection with their ancestry. Based on ethnographic research conducted in the Koda IDP settlement, the article explores how rituals related to the deceased help IDPs sustain be- longing to their family lineage. The article illustrates that verbal commemoration, and in particular toasting, gives IDPs an opportunity to maintain presence of the deceased within their social group. While verbal commemoration is sufficient for this, tangible objects also seem to play a significant role. The place of burial and the soil provide an opportunity for the continuation of the social group of the extended family and its constant re-creation.

TECHNOLOGICAL ALIENATION OF A PERSON AND MORAL DILEMMAS AS ITS CONSEQUENCES
Authors: Prokofyeva D V
Published: November 2019

This article aims to identify new moral dilemmas generated by technological progress and its consequence - the phenomenon of technological alienation in modern society. It examines the relationship between the phenomenon of alienation, technological progress and moral dilemmas they cause in modern society. In addition to the emergence of new moral and existential issues that arises as the consequence of the direct “collision” of a person and technologies as a result of their widespread introduction into our lives, we consider moral dilemmas arising from technological progress in such areas of life as politics, economics and education. Each of them poses a deeper problem for the person - an alienation from other people, from the species essence and from oneself, which allows us to designate this question not only as social problem, but also affecting existential questions.

Rapid Urbanization, Ecology and Sustainability: The Need for a Broad Strategy, Holism and Transdisciplinarity
Authors: Santamaria Gerardo del Cerro
Published: November 2019

This paper questions the conventional approaches to “planetary urbanization,” particularly their neglect to articulate the current process of rapid urban growth within the framework of new climate regimes and the ecological crisis. From this angle, it is irrelevant whether we focus on the idea of “city” or “the urban” in order to grasp contemporary socio-economic developments. Put differently, `”planetary urbanization” is one of the fundamentally constitutive elements of the Anthropocene era. Planetary urbanization is a problematic concept, and one that does not allow us to seriously analyze and assess the ecological threat and begin to craft proposals for a better understanding of sustainable development practices. After suggesting that the idea of “ecology” is fundamentally opposed to the idea of “nature,” we propose a concept of sustainability that is relevant for urban contexts and for an overall situation of planetary urbanization defined within the Anthropocene. Accordingly, an urban context will be defined as sustainable if it is planned and governed to account for the capacity, fitness, resilience, diversity and balance of its ecosystem. We take the view of sustainability as an organic process including environment, economy and community: form and efficiency (environmental factors in design, architecture, engineering and construction) as well as policy (urban plans and practices that explicitly aim at maintaining and improving the social and economic well-being of citizens). We need to step away from any conception of “the natural” as Nature. What is natural is what is sustainable, both urban and non-urban.

The aim of this study was to determine fatty acid and soluble sugar profiles of the grape seed flour originated from non-fermented dried pomace of international and autochthonous grape varieties in order to estimate their potential nutritional value. The grape seed flours were obtained from the grapes harvested in technological maturity. It has been shown that grape seed flours contained significant quantities of unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs), especially linoleic fatty acids, whose content ranged from 61.15 - 83.47 %. Oleic acid mostly contributed to the content of monounsaturated fatty acids, while the stearic acid was the most abundant saturated fatty acid (SFA). Among polyunsaturated fatty acids, mainly ?-6 FAs, were the most represented. The tested grape seed flours had the high UFA/SFA ratio (3.63- 11.09), low atherogenicity (0.04-0.13) and thrombogenicity (0.16-0.47) indices. Fifteen different sugars were found in analysed samples with the total concentration ranging from 40588 to 91319 mg/kg seed with fructose and glucose as the most abundant. Principal component analysis based on the content of FAs and soluble sugars revealed unique composition of the seed flour of Prokupac variety. These findings indicate that the tested grape seed flours is a good source of nutritionally valuable FAs and sugars that can play an important role in the formulation of a new functional food products.
The role of international authority in lake's hierarchical "scheme" of world politics
Authors: Ajzenhamer Vladimir
Published: November 2019

Although the agreement of different theoretical approaches regarding the role
and importance of power in world politics can easily be reached, when it
comes to its definition even elementary consensus is lacking. In this paper,
we analyze theoretical interpretations of power given by David Lake, which
in its conceptual scope and explanation of international order deviates from
the established theoretical tracks in the field of IR. We focus on the
concept of authority as a form of international power, which is one of the
fundamental pillars of Lake's theory of hierarchy in international
relations. Comparing the content of Lake's concept of authority with
different theoretical interpretations of international power, primarily
those that preceded it, we emphasized the theoretical advantages of Lake's
interpretation of the structure of the international system. We conclude
that Lake?s theory can be characterized as "non-canonical" rethinking of
world politics to some extent. The relation of superiority and
subordination, which does not rest on coercion, nor fear of force, but on
voluntary consent, forms the backbone of Lake's theory, and at the same time
represents its most recognizable and controversial part. Subjugation to the
force is often read as a dark chapter of human history, a chapter that
humanity seemingly scornfully closed after the rise and success of the
anti-colonial movement in the second half of the twentieth century. In this
context, Lake's study indicates that reality is something completely
different. Former colonies still agree to a subordinate position in order to
benefit from it, but today voluntarily. By analyzing his concept of
authority and comparing it to other conceptions of power, we tried to
explain Lake's view on world politics, and why his findings on authority,
subordination, superiority and international hierarchies in the field of
economics and security represent unavoidable theoretical destinations for
every scholar interested in the study of contemporary international
relations.

Kehadiran jamur ini diduga berasosiasi dengan vegetasi gulma yang berada dikebun, yang disebar melalui dengan spora dan miselianya.  Oleh karena itu untuk mendeteksi awal keberadaan jamur ganoderma diperlukan pendekataan vegetasi gulma dengan analisis hara Cu dan Zn. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan keberadaan jamur ganoderma terhadap kadar hara Cu dan Zn pada vegetasi gulma yang dominan di perkebunan kelapa sawit. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di blok 17, 16, dan 6 Afdeling VII Kebun Rambutan Kabupaten Serdang Bedagai dan analisis daun di Laboratorium Analitik PT. Socfin Indonesia, Medan. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan pada bulan Juli sampai dengan Agustus 2018. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan deskriptif analitik. Penelitian ini mengambil 3 jenis vegetasi gulma yang dominan (Cyperus rotundus, Cyclosorus aridus, dan Stenochlena palustris) kemudian dianalisis Cu dan Zn pada daun gulma. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan diperoleh 3 jenis gulma dominan disekitar kebun kelapa sawit yaitu Cyperus rotundus, Cyclosorus aridus, dan Stenochlena palustris. Hasil analisis kadar Zn dan Cu pada daun dari ketiga jenis gulma dominan disekitar kelapa sawit terinfeksi jamur ganoderma lebih rendah dibandingkan tanpa terinfeksi, kecuali pada gulma Stenochlena palustris kadar Cu lebih tinggi. Selisih persentase kadar Zn dan Cu pada daun gulma Cyperus rotundus, Cyclosorus aridus, dan Stenochlena palustris disekitar kelapa sawit terinfeksi dibandingkan tanpa terinfeksi jamur ganoderma masing-masing Zn adalah -42,72%; -43,92% dan -1,70% dan Cu masing-masing -27,13%; -25,80% dan +34,34%. Defisiensi kadar hara Cu dan Zn pada daun gulma diareal piringan maupun gawangan mati pada perkebunan kelapa sawit berpengaruh pada perkembangan spora ganoderma.

Published: November 2019

Besides being of benefit, online transport services in Indonesia also receive complaints from customers. It is not surprising that online transport service businesses have striven to improve their services by introducing electronic features, which are hoped to be able to improve feelings of being safe and comfortable, amongst users. This research assumes that the increases in electronic features are necessary, but insufficient. These features need to be supplemented by the service literacy of the driver/riders. The goal of this research is to attempt to test correlational hypotheses concerning the relationships between the three psychological variables, service resilience, organizational citizenship behavior and sensation-seeking; and service literacy. The research, conducted with 272 driver/riders (255 males, 17 females; Mage = 32.8 years old, SDage = 8.028 years) of online motorcycle taxis (ojek), indicated that those hypotheses were supported by empirical data.

Authors: Kesuma Dini
Published: November 2019

Synthesis of the 4-chlorobenzoylthiourea compound was carried out by acylating thiourea with 4-chlorobenzoyl chloride. The 4-chlorobenzoylthiourea compound  will increase the lipophilic and the electronic properties other than the lead compounds of benzoylthiourea in order to, by expectation, raise the central nervous system depressant as well. The lipophilic would affect the ability of the compounds in penetrating biological membranes, which is highly dependent on the solubility of the drug within lipid/water. Log P is the most common method used in determining the parameter value. This experiment was to mix two dissolvents (octanol and water) which are immissible. The both levels of the compounds were carefully observed by a spectrophotometer UV-Vis. From the test, the result of log P value of the 4-chlorobenzoylthiourea compound was 2.32, while the theoretical log P value of the compounds, by using the π Hansch-Fujita method is 1.62 and the f Rekker-Mannhold method is 2.225. Consequently, the result of the test shows that there is a significant difference between the progress experiment and both theoretical log P methods. Moreover, in the test of the central nervous system depressant through the potentiation test to thiopental using mice indicates that the 4-chlorobenzoylthiourea compound have potentiation effects to thiopental compared to the lead compounds of benzoylthiourea.
