Diabetes distress in adult patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
Authors: Kurza Dominika , Kobos Ewa
Published: December 2022

Background: Diabetes is a chronic and demanding condition, exposing patients to complex physical and mental challenges, and making them particularly vulnerable to distress. Diabetes distress related to disease in diabetic patients is a term encompassing challenges associated with the psychosocial adaptation required of these individuals. Aim of the study: To assess distress in patients with diabetes mellitus. Material and methods: This study was conducted among 107 patients with type 1 and 2 diabetes mellitus reporting for follow-up at a diabetes clinic. The Diabetes Distress Scale (DDS) was used for data collection. Results: Moderate and severe diabetes distress was found in 36.4% and 15% of respondents in the study group, respectively. The total mean score for the DDS was 2.19. The largest percentages of respondents with high levels of distress were observed in patients with a financial situation rated lower than good (30.6%), those having less than secondary education (28.0%), and those under 30 years of age (27.8%). Patients with type 1 diabetes (26.9%), a disease duration > 30 years (30.8%), those using insulin pump therapy (30%) or CGM (Continuous Glucose Monitoring) and FGM (Flash Glucose Monitoring) systems (50%), and those showing ≥ 3 chronic diabetic complications (37.5%) experienced severe distress. Conclusions: Overall, diabetic patients showed a moderate level of distress. The greatest inconveniences caused by the disorder were associated with regimen-related distress and emotional burden. Rural patients with a lower level of education and a lower financial status showed higher levels of distress. Patients experiencing chronic complications from diabetes and those with higher levels of glycated hemoglobin also presented with more severe distress.

Published: December 2022

Friction stir processing (FSP) was used to modify a larger-size surface of H65 copper alloy. The influence of the traverse speed and the rotation speed on the microstructure, the microhardness and the wear resistance of the modified surface were analyzed. The wear mechanism of the modified H65 copper alloy was revealed. The results indicate that the grain size was greatly refined after FSP compared with the parent metal and that the grain size increased with the increment of the rotation speed. The average microhardness of the modified surface was higher than that of the parent metal. The average microhardness had a highest value of 174.13 HV when the traverse speed was 200 mm/min and the rotation speed was 200 rpm, i.e., 21% higher than that of the parent metal. The average microhardness decreased with the increase of the rotation speed. When the traverse speed was 200 mm/min and the rotation speed was 600 rpm, the average friction coefficient of the modified surface was the smallest (0.3213), which was lower than that of the parent metal (0.3810). The wear mechanism of the H65 copper alloy modified by FSP was mainly adhesive wear accompanied by local abrasive wear.

Published: December 2022

Background: The school feeding program was introduced in Nigeria in 2004 with the aim of encouraging school enrolment and reducing micro and macronutrient deficiencies in the country. Minerals and vitamins are required in minute quantities for the normal functioning of the body. Objective: The objective of the study was to determine the concentration of vitamins A, D and E and some mineral composition (Copper, Magnesium, Sodium, Calcium, and Potassium) in cooked Pasta samples given to the National Home Grown School Feeding Program in some selected schools in Gombe LGA of Gombe State. Methodology: Cooked Pasta (Jollof spaghetti) was collected from three (3) randomly selected schools (Bubayero primary school, Tudun-Wadan Pantami primary school, Pantami primary school) in Gombe, Nigeria. Moisture content in the food samples was done according to the Standard method described by the AOAC. For the determination of vitamin levels, the food samples collected were dried in an oven (GenLab) for three (3) days at 50oC and grounded using mortar and pestle into a fine powder, stored in airtight containers and analyzed using a UV spectrophotometer. Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (Buck Scientific) was used to determine copper, calcium and magnesium, while Flame photometry was used for the analysis of sodium and potassium. Results: Each of the analyzed samples had a very high moisture content ranging from 73.7% in Bubayero Primary School and Tudun-wadan Pantami Primary School been the lowest with 69.2%. Bubayero Primary School Pasta sample had the highest level of Vitamin A (573.23 IU/100g) and the lowest level of Vitamin C (2.00mg/100g). The least Vitamin A content was found in Tudun-Wadan Pantami Primary school Pasta sample (363.40 IU/100g). Sample from Pantami Primary School had the lowest concentrations of three out of the four minerals detected. Copper was not detected in all the samples. Conclusion: Pasta samples analyzed from different schools have low levels of the required minerals and water-soluble vitamin C which may be compensated with the addition of some vegetables such as spinach and may still be cost-effective.
Book reviews [International Journal of Emotional Education, 14(2)]
Authors:   Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Surrey, Cowie Helen
Published: December 2022

The theme of the Special Issue is climate change, so this book is particularly relevant to educators. Alison Woolf, author of Better Mental Health in Schools: Four Key Principles for Practice in Challenging Times, takes account of the global difficulties that face us all and shows evidence-based ways in which educators can help children and young people to navigate their way through this difficult time. She shows awareness of the universal social and emotional pressures that all young people in the present century face and explains how these can increase the psychological and behavioural difficulties of individual pupils. As an experienced practitioner, she is aware of the complexity of the task that schools are required to do in fostering positive mental health in their students. However, she indicates the value of a whole-school approach and provides many illustrations of how teachers can enhance their students’ emotional health and well-being while, at the same time, taking care of their own mental health.

Students’ living conditions may suffer as a result of climate change. This research examined the impact of climate change awareness on undergraduates’ beliefs about socio-emotional well-being in Nigeria. The total number of undergraduate students in Kwara state made up the study’s population, with the sample size being 589. The Climate Change and Mental Wellbeing Questionnaire (CCMWQ) was used to collect data from randomly selected undergraduate participants for the study. The acquired data was evaluated using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA and PPMC at a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that most undergraduates are aware of climate change but have little understanding of its origins, effects, and preventive strategies. The results further revealed that the undergraduates’ level of climate change awareness influences their beliefs about their socio-emotional wellbeing. At different ages, participants’ opinions on how climate change would affect their socio-emotional health varied dramatically. Similarly, a correlation exists between climate change awareness and beliefs about socio-emotional well-being and awareness and attitude towards protecting the environment.
Use of social-emotional learning in online teacher education

Published: December 2022

The goal of this paper is to address the questions of how social-emotional learning [SEL] can be incorporated into online learning and what effect such integration can have on students. The COVID-19 outbreak significantly increased the use of online learning at all levels of education. However, research shows that the online learning experience may contribute to students’ feelings of distancing, alienation, and loneliness. The assumption underlying this study was that these negative feelings are not inherent to the online learning experience; rather, they can be avoided by using online-SEL (“O-SEL”) techniques that integrate SEL into online learning processes. This qualitative case study included 42 preservice teachers enrolled in a college of education in Israel, who participated in an online course that employed specific methods for integrating the SEL component. Analysis of students’ reactions to the course revealed that O-SEL not only improved students’ emotional experience but also enhanced their cognitive learning. These findings strongly suggest that models of online learning should include SEL. Additional research may confirm the positive O-SEL effects on students’ experience and achievements. In this context, the current study introduces the concept of “social emotional presence,” which is necessary for learning and development to take place online.
Short research report : Relationship between alexithymia as a multi-dimensional construct and depression in university students : mediating role of anxiety

Published: December 2022

This study investigated the relationship between alexithymia and depression amongst university students and how it is mediated by anxiety. Data was collected from a sample of university students (n= 74, Men = 41, Women = 33) aged 18 to 25 (Mean = 22.05, SD = .38). The findings revealed a statistically significant gender difference with men being more alexithymic than women. There was a significant positive correlation between the alexithymic subscales difficulty identifying feelings (DDF) and difficulty describing feelings (DIF), depression and anxiety. DDF and DIF along with anxiety predicted depression. Anxiety partially mediated the relationship between DIF and depression but completely mediated the relationship between DDF and depression. Alexithymic features DDF and DIF predict depression in the sample but Externally Oriented Thinking (EOT) did not. Anxiety was found to be an underlying mechanism operating in the between alexithymic features and depression.
Adolescent cyberstanders’ experience of cyberbullying in the era of Covid-19 in South Africa
Authors:   Department of Psychology, College of Human Sciences, University of South Africa, Adewoye Segun Emmanuel
Published: December 2022

Indications are that cyberstanders can be negatively affected by witnessing cyberbullying incidents and are even more likely than direct victims of cyberbullying to report symptoms of stress. However, cyberbystanders are understudied in the cyberbullying literature because most research predominantly focuses on perpetrators or direct victims of cyberbullying. This study aimed to explore the lived experiences of adolescent cyberbystanders who witnessed cyberbullying in the COVID-19 era. Twenty adolescent cyberbystanders were purposely selected to participate in this study. The qualitative data was analysed using inductive thematic analysis. The findings demonstrated that cyberbullying has various detrimental effects that include educational, psychological, and emotional consequences for those exposed to it. It is recommended that anti-cyberbullying programmes should be incorporated into the curriculum so that teachers and educational psychologists can emphasise the negative impact of cyberbullying on bullies, victims and bystanders. With more awareness of the detrimental consequences of cyberbullying on all parties involved, adolescents may become more competent in respecting people’s rights and privacy within cyberspace.
Coping is crucial : exploring relations between K-12 educators and staff coping strategies, perceived stress and psychological wellbeing
Authors:   Brock University, Ontario, Canada, Savage Michael , Woloshyn Vera ,   Brock University, Ontario, Canada
Published: December 2022

This causal comparative study explored K-12 educators’ and school staff’s self-reported levels of well-being, perceived stress, and use of coping strategies. An online survey was administered to 686 educators consisting of teachers, school administrators, professional support staff, administrative support staff and other school staff in a medium-sized schoolboard in Southern Ontario, Canada. The results show that educators reported overall low scores of wellbeing and higher levels of perceived stress as compared to the general population. Female educators reported significantly higher perceived stress than their male colleagues. A k-means cluster analysis of the educators’ coping strategies identified four unique clusters which were significantly different from each other. It was shown that participants in two of the clusters, consisting of approximately 32% of the participants in this study, used maladaptive coping strategies more frequent and that the participants in these two clusters exhibited significantly poorer wellbeing and significantly more perceived stress than their colleagues in the other two clusters. The limitations and practical implications of this study are discussed.

Authors: I. Bassey Sunday , Eteng Salvation , Ewah Eric Friday
Published: December 2022

Generally, the survival of regions and locations is predicated among others, on the corridors of accessibility. In contemporary times, transportation is regarded as the life wire of development and a lot is dependent on it. In spite of its importance, there is neglect in the development and maintenance of rural transportation system especially in countries of the developing world such as Nigeria. Based on this assertion, this paper seeks to assess the level of service of rural transportation in Abi Local Government Area of Cross River State. The study specifically sought to identify the various modes and means of transportation in the study area, examine the contributions of rural transportation to the socio-economic development of the area, identify the problems militating against effective rural transportation services and make recommendations for improvement. The study relied on questionnaire, interviews and observations for data collection. A total of 400 copies of questionnaire were distributed and 377 copies were retrieved and used for analysis. The study used tables, charts and simple percentages for data presentation and analysis. The hypothesis that was formulated was tested using simple linear regression. The study observed that motorcycle is the most preferred mode of transportation by respondents in the study area. The result of the hypothesis showed that the level of service of rural transportation does not have significant effect on the socio-economic development of the area. This imply that socio-economic development in the study area is not completely tied to the level of service of rural transportation. Furthermore, the problems militating against effective rural transportation services include poor funding and difficult terrain. The study suggested that funding for road rehabilitation be increased by the government and other sources of funding such as Public Private Partnerships be advocated in the road development/rehabilitation process.

Keywords: Transportation, rural transportation, mode of transportation, means of transportation, level of service.

Published: December 2022

I examine the extent of volatility transmission, spill-over and contagion among Nigeria, some selected African and world equity markets. Empirical findings indicate the presence of volatility transmission and spill-over among the Nigerian and world equity markets. However, for the Nigerian and African markets, the results show that there is volatility transmission, but no evidence of volatility spill-over. The results were not statistically significant enough to prove the existence of volatility contagion among all the African markets, arising from the recent global financial crisis.

Authors: Fajriyah Novita , Andriani Dewi
Published: December 2022

Introduction. Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is defined as Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT) with onset or first recognition during pregnancy. Gestational diabetes mellitus occurs in 2 to 9 percent of all pregnancies and is associated with substantial rates of maternal and perinatal complications. Women with a history of GDM have a sevenfold lifetime risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) compared with those with euglycemic pregnancies.A systematic review was conducted to evaluate the evidence from published studies on the effect of non-pharmacological interventions on the health of glycemic control of pregnant women at high risk (gestational diabetes mellitus).Method. The databases used in this systematic review are Scopus, Science Direct, and PubMed. Relevant articles were searched from 27 May to 29 June 2022. The publication year was limited to 2018 – 2022. A total of 20 randomized controlled trials were included that focused on non-pharmacological interventions in GDM women.Results & Analysis. The selected articles show that physical exercise interventions consist of moderate-intensity aerobic and resistance exercise, educational interventions include telemedicine and mobile health (m-health), and dietary nutrition interventions.Discussions. Non-pharmacological interventions can have a good effect on the control of GDM in the treatment of GDM. In general, women with GDM can improve their condition and prevent the risk of complications in childbirth. The physical exercise intervention had a significant beneficial effect on controlling blood glucose levels in GDM women, while other interventions that also had a beneficial effect were education with telemedicine and mobile health media.

Published: December 2022

AIMS OF THE STUDY: To describe reasons for medical emergency team (MET) activation over time, to analyse outcomes, and to describe the circadian distribution of MET calls and Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admissions following MET activation. METHODS: Monocentric retrospective observational study of prospectively collected data on all MET calls between 1st of January 2012 until 31st of May 2019. We analysed data on baselines, referring wards, and disposition of all MET patients. In addition, we allocated all MET calls to the hourly intervals over the 24-hour cycle of the day in order to identify peak times of team activation. RESULTS: A total of 4068 calls in 3277 patients (37% female, n = 1210) were analysed. The mean age was 65.9 years (± 15.7). The MET dose (defined as MET calls/1000 hospital admissions) remained relatively stable over the years with a median of 8.0 calls/1000 hospitalisations (interquartile range [IQR] 7.0–10.0). A total of 2526 calls (62%) occurred out of hours (17:00 to 8:00). The hourly rate of MET activations was greatest during the evening shift (33.8% of calls in seven hours), followed by the day shift (35.8% calls in nine hours) and night shift (30.4% in eight hours). Over the years, staff concern was the main reason for a MET call (n = 1192, 34%), followed by low peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) not responding to oxygen therapy (n = 776, 22%). Abnormal respiratory rate was a trigger to call the MET in 44 cases (1.3%), and was not documented prior to 2017. Overall, in-hospital mortality was 22%. CONCLUSION: While most common reasons for MET calls over the years were staff concern and low SpO2, abnormal respiratory rate was the least frequent, but increased after the introduction of the quick sequential organ failure assessment (qSOFA) in 2016. Most MET calls occurred out of hours with peak hours during the evening shift, highlighting the importance of resource allocation during this shift when planning to introduce a MET system in a hospital. In-hospital mortality after a MET call was 22%.

Die russische Aggression gegen die Ukraine hat die europäische Sicherheitsarchitektur nachhaltig verschoben. Für die Europäische Union (EU) und viele andere (westliche) Staaten sind Sanktionen gegenüber Russland und Belarus das Mittel der Wahl, um sich als relevante Akteure zu behaupten. Dabei blickt die EU auf eine nicht unerhebliche Sanktionspraxis zurück. Der Beitrag setzt sich mit dem Kontext der europäischen Sanktionspolitik sowie ihren Zielen auseinander und gibt anhand einer Kategorisierung der Sanktionsarten einen Überblick über die bislang sechs Sanktionspakete der EU. Schließlich wird ein erstes Zwischenfazit zu den positiven sowie negativen Auswirkungen der Sanktionen und der sicherheitspolitischen Position der EU getroffen.
On the Lack of a General Part for EU Private International Law
Authors: Meškić Zlatan
Published: December 2022

The question of a general part for EU Private International Law has attracted research and debate among PIL scholars long before the EU started to codify this legal field after the Amsterdam Treaty. However, the EU has made no attempt to make use of the existing research to adopt a comprehensive regulation of the general part of EU PIL and has adopted sector-specific regulation with inconsistent regulation of several general institutes. For the occasion of the anniversary of the Zeitschrift für Europarechtliche Studien this paper revisits the topic to answer the question which institutes of PIL should be codified in a general part of EU PIL. The conclusions are made based on four criteria: which general institutes of PIL are already regulated in the EU; are they generally applicable to all special parts of EU PIL; what is their practical relevance; and is there a need for their uniform regulation. The paper analyzes the discrepancies between existing general institutes of EU PIL and offers brief discussions on the possible formulation of some of the institutes for the general part.
The EU’s Commitment to Social and Environmental Standards in its Modernised Trade Defence Instruments
Authors: Vaerenbergh Pieter Van
Published: December 2022

Since the modernisation of the Basic Regulations in 2017 and 2018, the EU explicitly exerts social and environmental goals through the application of its trade defence instruments. Whereas the Commission portrayed the new rules as a guarantee that high European standards would not disadvantage the European industry in application of trade defence instruments, commentators were quick to question the EU’s true intentions behind the inclusion of social and environmental considerations. This article reviews three major aspects of social and environmental considerations in trade defence practice: the significant distortions methodology, the new calculation of the injury margin and the application of the Union interest test. This article commends the EU’s effort to reconcile the two seemingly opposing goals of trade defence and social and environmental protection, and identifies areas of improvement as well as possibilities to options to further “green” the trade defence instruments.
Marx und Kant
Authors: Kuhne Frank
Published: December 2022

Marx scheint sich im Kapital in einem Selbstwiderspruch zu bewegen: Einerseits charakterisiert er das Kapitalverhältnis in einer Weise, die moralische Empörung und Kritik ausdrückt, andererseits vertritt er seinem Selbstverständnis nach eine materialistische Wissenschaft, für die Moral und ihre Begründung durch die philosophische, normative Ethik nur noch als Gegenstand von Ideologiekritik taugen. Die seit Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts währende Debatte über die vermeintlichen oder wirklichen normativen Grundlagen der Kapitaltheorie hat zu keiner in der Sache überzeugenden Antwort geführt, sondern nur zu einer Vielzahl von einander widerstreitenden Positionen.

Bei aller Divergenz ist dem Gros der Positionen gemeinsam, dass sie zwischen dem ›marxschen Denken‹ und der Theorie, in die dieses Denken mündete, nicht unterscheiden. Dem widerspricht diese Arbeit. Zwischen dem Denken des Theoretikers und seiner Theorie ist in dem Moment zu unterscheiden, in dem die Theorie nicht mehr nur Gegenstand eines motivgeschichtlichen, ideengeschichtlichen oder methodologischen Interesses ist, sondern die Wahrheitsfrage an sie gestellt wird. Frank Kuhne zeigt, dass die Kapitaltheorie der Sache nach von einem emphatischen Begriff praktischer Subjektivität abhängig ist, wie er zuerst von Kant eingeführt wurde. ›Der Sache nach‹ heißt: Dieser Begriff ist für die Kapitaltheorie konstitutiv. Dagegen wird nicht behauptet, Marx sei im Grunde seines Herzens ein Kantianer gewesen. Das war er ganz sicher nicht.

Maintaining democratic stability and respect for human rights in the United States is becoming a challenge in the face of current crises. In order to meet this challenge, Leo Kempe examines the influence of ethnicity and living space on the status of democracy. In the context of the Black Lives Matter movement, he uses the examples of Washington, D.C., and Minneapolis, Minnesota, to illuminate how discrimination against African Americans in U.S. neighborhoods leads to the destabilization of the democratic system. His analysis provides insight into the connections between the lives of African Americans, geography, and democracy in the United States. This is because prevailing stereotypes, alienation, and exclusion lead to stark social inequality.

Authors: Naghibeiranvand Mehran , Piri Saeedeh , Alipour Zeinab
Published: December 2022

Background: The recent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic is the worst crisis since World War 2. Because no successful cure for this disease has been reported, efforts to improve knowledge, perspective, and performance in vulnerable groups, such as heart disease patients, are very important for managing this epidemic. Objectives: The present study was conducted to determine the effect of e-learning on COVID-19-related knowledge, attitude, and performance in heart disease patients. Methods: This was a quasi-experimental before and after study without a control group, which was conducted on 80 patients in Lorestan Heart Center (Shahid Madani Hospital, Khorramabad,) selected by random sampling method. The intervention included 10 15-minute educational sessions in 4 weeks, about COVID-19 prevention programs, such as general knowledge about COVID-19, disinfection methods, using facemasks and gloves, the correct way of washing hands, prescribed medication, and nutritional recommendations. Data collection tools were a demographic information questionnaire, a knowledge evaluation questionnaire, and a COVID-19-related performance questionnaire. The data were analyzed using SPSS 26 software by descriptive and statistical methods and paired t-test and analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results: The patients’ mean age was 55.22 ± 11.05 years. The mean knowledge of patients before the educational intervention was 13.25, and after the intervention was 17.42, and a significant statistical difference was observed (P = 0.00). Also, the patients’ mean attitude and practice before the intervention were 38.32 and 11.79, respectively, and reached 40.90 and 13.51 after the intervention, and a meaningful statistical difference was observed (P = 0.00). Conclusions: E-learning improves COVID-19-related knowledge, perspective, and practice in patients with heart disease. We suggest that some nurses should be educated in this area and, using the right equipment, vastly perform E-learning for groups susceptible to COVID-19.

L’épidémie a provoqué plusieurs initiatives de recherche en sciences sociales et humaines, épidémiologiques et sur les systèmes de santé amenant le à enregistrer 58 protocoles de recherche sur la Covid-19 avec 2 pics de soumissions notés respectivement en novembre 2020 (15 protocoles) et en janvier 2021 (13 protocoles). La gestion efficace de ce flux a nécessité la mise en place des dispositions particulières de gouvernance éthique de la recherche en période d’urgence. Deux défis étaient à relever par le comité face à la pression de la pandémie: traiter avec diligence des dossiers soumis qui sont souvent des protocoles de recherche pragmatique et veiller au respect des principes éthiques dans l’élaboration et la mise en œuvre des protocoles. Pour ce faire, des innovations étaient nécessaires, tant dans l’organisation des revues, que le de la mise en œuvre de la recherche en période de pandémie Covid-19. La note de politique ainsi rédigée vise à partager les acquis du quant à sa contribution à la protection des participants à la recherche dans le contexte de la pandémie Covid-19. La méthodologie utilisée est centrée sur la revue documentaire avec l’outil FAO et le guide des bonnes pratiques de la . Cela a permis de mettre en exergue les acquis suivants : La prise en compte de la vulnérabilité dans les procédures de recherche sur la covid-19 ; Examen systématique et réduction de la durée de traitement des protocoles Covid-19 ; Matérialisation du consentement par voie digitale ; et Vigilance éthique sur la vulnérabilité en période de Covid-19. En termes de bonnes pratiques on peut citer La digitalisation de la revue éthique et scientifique des protocoles La systématisation des commentaires écrits des reviewers et l’archivage électronique des procès-verbaux et de protocoles de recherche.

MANAGEMENT OF PHYSIOTHERAPY IN THE CASE OF OSTEOARTHRITIS GENU DEXTRA IN KRAKATAU MEDIKA HOSPITAL
Authors: Ikhlasinufus
Published: December 2022

Background: Osteoarthritis is also known as calcification of the joints. The main disorder of osteoarthritis is the breakdown of joint cartilage. Joint cartilage is a joint component that lines the ends of bones in joints, functions as a cushion and shock absorber when two bones collide when the joint is moved (1) Complaints of joint pain usually come and go and attack only a few joints. In

 

 

the early stages, joint pain occurs after strenuous physical exercise and then disappears after rest. The complaint then progresses to joint stiffness when you wake up in the morning which disappears within 15-30 minutes and decreases after being moved (2). Objective: to determine the management of physiotherapy in the condition of genu dextra osteoarthritis at the Krakatau medika hospital. Method: quantitative research with cross sectional design. Measurement of research variables was only done once by observation. Results: The patient did the examination, there was motion pain in the right knee joint, limited right knee LGS, decreased muscle strength. Parameters used to evaluate pain using a vase, LGS with Goneo Meter, muscle strength with MMT. Patients have difficulty walking long distances, squatting to standing, for toileting, limited range of motion, decreased muscle strength. In this case the management given is MWD, Tens, exercise therapy (isometric exercise, Hold Relax). Conclusion: Giving these three modalities greatly affects the condition of knee osteoarthritis, which can help prevent and treat problems such as:1. reduce pain in the knee starting from tenderness and movement using the VDS scale, 2. increasing the range of motion of the joint with a goneometer, 3. increasing muscle strength with MMT, 4. increasing the patient's functional activity with the jette scale. Suggestion: Physiotherapists are advised to always try to improve knowledge so as to identify problems that can arise in patients and can perform appropriate physiotherapy interventions for successful therapy.
