Arsen Rychinsky's work "The Problems of Ukrainian Religious Consciousness" in Ukrainian Religious Studies
Authors: Gudyma Arsen , Andreychyn M.
Published: February 2020

An unquestionable achievement of contemporary Ukrainian religious thought is the return from oblivion of Arsen Rychynsky's creative heritage, which is made by his main work, "Problems of Ukrainian Religious Consciousness." As the founder of the ethnology of religion in Ukrainian religious studies, he has filled the nearly three hundred-year gap in Ukrainian Orthodoxy, organically combining the historical origins, status, and tasks of the ethno-confessional existence of the Ukrainian people. If for the time of Peter Mohyla the idea of ​​the national Church (up to the formation of the patriarchy) was the basic factor of the national idea, then in A.Richinsky's time the national idea became the vital core of the national Church until the revival of the state, which is an unambiguous concept "for faith and the people of Russia" (XVII and nowadays the "Ukrainian State - the Ukrainian Church".

Penanggulangan sampah dengan pendekatan sosial di Kelurahan Kedung Halang Bogor
Authors: Mujahidin Endin , Kurniasih Indah
Published: February 2020

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menemukan konsep yang dapat digunakan untuk menanggulangi sampah di Kelurahan Kedung Halang dengan pendekatan sosial. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode grounded research dengan responden ketua RT (Rukun Tetangga) dan tokoh masyarakat yang berada di RW 13 (Rukun Warga). Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa sampah di Bogor berdasarkan catatan Dinas Lingkungan Hidup (DLH) Kota Bogor, setiap harinya volume sampah di kota hujan mencapai 600 ton. Sekitar 475 ton di antaranya dibuang ke Tempat Pembuangan Akhir (TPA) Galuga. Pengelolan sampah yang dilakukan di Kelurahan Kedung Halang Kota Bogor dalam pengelolaan sampah masih menggunakan metode pengumpulan secara langsung dan dipindahkan serta di tampung di TPA Galuga di biarkan tanpa ada pengelolan lanjutan, metode ini jika dilakukan terus menerus akan berdampak buruk karena dengan meningkatnya jumlah penduduk setiap tahunnya maka meningkat pula jumlah sampah, sehingga lahan yang digunakan untuk TPA yang mempuanyai luas terbatas tidak dapat lagi menampung sampah serta membuangnya kesungai atau dibakar dihalaman rumah. Berdasarkan hasil analisis data dapat disimpulkan bahwa cara untuk menanggulangi permasalahan sampah dapat dilakukan melalui pendekatan sosial dengan mengadakan gotong royang dan bank sampah.

 

Abstract

This study aims to find concepts that can be used to tackle waste in Kedung Halang Village with a social approach. The research method used was a grounded research method with respondents from the head of the RT (Rukun Tetangga) and community leaders residing in RW 13 (Rukun Warga). The results of this study indicate that the garbage in Bogor is based on the records of the Bogor City Environmental Agency (DLH), the volume of garbage in the rainy city reaches 600 tons every day. Around 475 tons of which were disposed of at the Galuga Landfill. Waste management carried out in Kedung Halang Village, Bogor City in waste management still uses the method of collecting directly and being transferred and accommodated in the Galuga landfill left without any further management, this method if done continuously will have a bad impact because with the increasing number of population each year then the amount of waste also increases, so that the land used for the landfill which has a limited area can no longer accommodate the garbage and throw it into the river or be burned on the home page. Based on the results of data analysis, it can be concluded that the way to overcome the waste problem can be done through a social approach by holding a cooperative and a waste bank.

Gaps in biodiversity conservation management within the Conservation Area that are the responsibility of the central government and outside the Conservation Areas or as the Essential Ecosystems Area (EEA) which are the authority of the Regional Government, have caused various spatial conflicts between wildlife /wild plants and land management activities. Several obstacles faced by the Local Government to conduct its authority to manage (EEA), caused the number and area of EEA determined by the Local Government to be still low. At present only 703,000 ha are determined from the 67 million ha indicated by EEA. This study aims to overview biodiversity conservation policies by local governments and company perceptions in implementing conservation policies and formulate strategies for optimizing the role of Local Governments. From the results of this study, there has not been found any legal umbrella for the implementation of Law number 23/ 2014 related to the conservation of important ecosystems in the regions. This regulatory vacuum leaves the local government in a dilemma for continuing various conservation programs. By using a SWOT to the internal strategic environment and external stratetegic environment of the Environment and Forestry Service, Bengkulu Province , as well as using an analysis of company perceptions of the conservation policies regulatary , this study has been formulated a â€œsurvival strategyâ€ through collaboration between the Central Government, Local Governments and the Private Sector to optimize the role of Local Governmentâ€™s to establish EEA in the regions.Keywords: Management gaps, Essential Ecosystems Area (EEA), Conservation Areas, SWOT analysis and perception analysis

Abstrak

Kelurahan Karangsari kecamatan Tuban kabupaten Tuban terletak di pesisir utara pantai Tuban dan sebagian besar masyarakatnya bermata pencaharian sebagai nelayan dan dari hasil laut. Salah satu hasil laut terbanyak yaitu ikan tongkol. Namun, ikan tongkol hanya dimanfaatkan bagian badan dan ekornya. Bagian kepala ikan tongkol hanya dibuang dan sering menjadi limbah. Limbah kepala ikan tongkol dapat menjadi limbah yang mengganggu lingkungan karena baunya yang tidak sedap. Masih rendahnya pengolahan limbah kepala ikan tongkol menyebabkan limbah kepala ikan tongkol belum tersentuh untuk diolah menjadi produk yang memiliki nilai ekonomis yang tinggi tanpa mengurangi kandungan protein dan kalsium yang terkandung di dalamnya. Limbah kepala ikan tongkol dilakukan inovasi baru berupa kornet. Pengolahan kornet menggunakan bahan-bahan alami. Kornet yang dinamai KOKI NON ADIBAH (KOrnet Kepala Ikan NON ADItif berbahaya, Bergizi, dan murAH) dibuat dari bahan dasar limbah kepala ikan tongkol dengan penambahan bahan aditif alami seperti garam dan gula sebagai pengawet dan pemanis, serta rempah-rempah sebagai penguat rasa. Tujuan pelatihan ini diharapkan dapat dikembangkan dalam skala yang lebih besar untuk diproduksi dan dijual. Kegiatan ini dilaksanakan di kelurahan Karangsari kecamatan Tuban kabupaten Tuban dihadiri oleh anggota PKK dan Karang Taruna RT 02/RW 01.

EXAMINING THE CONNECTION BETWEEN STUDENTS’ WORKING MEMORY AND THEIR ABILITIES TO SOLVE OPEN-ENDED CHEMISTRY PROBLEMS
Authors: Upahi Johnson E. , Ramnarain Umesh
Published: February 2020

Open-ended problem-solving skills have been identified as employable skills, which undergraduate students will need to have in order to cope with real-life problems in their workplaces after graduation. However, the development and assessment of these skills have been inconsistent across courses offered in universities. This research examined undergraduate students’ ability to engage with open-ended chemistry problems, and the influence of their working memory space on problem solving. The research is a descriptive research design that employed a survey method for collection data. A purposive sampling technique was used to recruit 665 students from 19 chemistry departments in Nigerian universities. The students’ ability to solve open-ended problems was measured in terms of their performance and was found to be below average (< 50). The female students outperformed their male counterparts in the chemistry open-ended problem-solving test (ChemOPST). A strong positive correlation was found to exist between students’ working memory capacity and their performance in the ChemOPST. The research concludes on the need for experiential-based learning of chemical concepts which could help students build a knowledge base that is required to engage with problems that have real-life applications. Keywords: open-ended problems, working memory, chemistry problem-solving, university students.
IDENTIFYING PRE-SERVICE TEACHERS’ INITIAL IMPRESSIONS OF THE CONCEPT CARTOONS IN THE SCHOOL CORRIDORS AND INFORMAL PHYSICS LEARNING
Authors: Atasoy Şengül , Toksoy Seyhan Eryılmaz , Çalık Muammer
Published: February 2020

Since concept cartoons give an important opportunity for students to achieve informal physics learning, the current research focused on pre-service teachers’ initial impressions of the concept cartoons in the school corridors and informal physics learning. The aim of the research was to determine pre-service teachers’ initial impressions of the concept cartoons in the school corridors and informal physics learning via the concept cartoons. After a 14-week intervention, a questionnaire with seven open-ended questions was administered to 542 pre-service teachers from primary, mathematics and science teacher education programmes. Their responses to the questionnaire were exposed to qualitative content analysis via two categories (advanced and poor impression). The results showed that pre-service teachers generally refered to advanced impressions of the concept cartoons. In light of the results, it can be deduced that the concept cartoons have enhanced their initial impressions of informal physics/science learning via the concept cartoons. The current research recommends that pre-service teachers should be encouraged to produce their own concept cartoons on the topic(s) they found difficult. Keywords: concept cartoon, informal learning, initial impression, science education.
CONCEPTUALIZING SPATIAL ABILITIES AND THEIR RELATION TO SCIENCE LEARNING FROM A COGNITIVE PERSPECTIVE
Authors: Chen Yi-Chun , Yang Fang-Ying , Chang Cheng-Chieh
Published: February 2020

Science learning requires visuospatial thinking. Accordingly, spatial ability is regarded as the key to learning science well, but its effects are sometimes not as significant as expected. To this end, this research aims to conceptualize spatial abilities and to clarify their relation to science learning based on an analysis of empirical studies. Content analysis of 39 studies showed that (1) intrinsic-dynamic skills are the most frequently measured, (2) the explored science topics mostly involve well-established knowledge, (3) the effects of spatial ability on science achievement are inconsistent, and (4) educational interventions are not always effective in improving students’ spatial abilities or science achievement. It is argued that domain knowledge interferes with the study results and that domain-specific spatial ability exists, referring to apply spatial-type and domain-specific knowledge. Supported by cognitive theories and empirical evidence, a model is constructed to exhibit the relations between domain-general and domain-specific spatial ability as well as their effects on science achievement. According to the model, the two spatial abilities functionally partially overlap in the operations of spatial skills, and educational experience and malleable spatial skills are reciprocal; however, improvement in general spatial ability, involving the function of the central executive system, is likely limited.

Mirizzi syndrome: diagnosis and management of a challenging biliary disease
Authors: HAN Hakim , Akhter SM Quamrul , Rabbi Hashim , Islam Kazi Mazharul , Talukder Md Tuhin , Islam Md Aminul
Published: February 2020

Background: Mirizzi syndrome is a condition, difficult to diagnose pre-operatively and treat, represent a particular challenge for hepatobiliary surgeons. Furthermore, it increases the risk of intra-operative biliary injury, particularly during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The aims of this study were to point out some particular aspect of diagnosis and treatment of this condition that will be helpful for the surgeons.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed all records of the patients, surgically treated for Mirizzi syndrome from January 2013 to January 2018 in Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Shaheed Sohrawardy Medical College Hospital and BIRDEM General Hospital. Patients’ presentation, diagnostic methods, treatment and complications were recorded.

Results: During the study period, a total of 1320 cholecystectomy were performed, out of which 50 patients were diagnosed with Mirizzi syndrome, representing an incidence rate of 3.78%. Male to female ratio was 0.72:1 and mean age was 54.14 years. When we analyzed the main symptoms in the clinical debut, we found that common features were jaundice (31, 62%), cholangitis (20, 40%) and abdominal pain (22, 44%). Roux en Y hepaticojejunostomy was the treatment of choice and subtotal cholecystectomy were done for 7 cases and laparoscopic cholecystectomy for 2 cases. Mean hospital stay was 4.8±2.9 days. There was no post-operative mortality. Two cases of biliary fistula resolved with conservative management and another case required percutaneous treatment for resolution of an intraperitoneal postoperative collection.

Conclusion: Mirizzi syndrome continues to be a disease of difficult diagnosis and treatment. General surgeons without long experience in hepatobiliary surgery should refer the patient to a specialized hepatobiliary surgical center. In most of the cases biliary reconstruction is inevitable. It is important for the surgeons to know the disease and possible intra-operative challenging situations.

The biochemical profile of oral contraceptive pill user women showed different changes in plasma total protein, albumin and various trace minerals like serum zinc, copper, magnesium etc. Trace minerals are necessary for endocrine function. This study was designed to evaluate serum zinc levels of women taking oral contraceptives.

Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at Department of Biochemistry, Mymensingh Medical College Hospital from July 2013 to June 2014. A total of 150 subjects were included in this study; among them 50women were selected as control (Group I),who were neither taking oral contraceptives at the time of selection nor had taken it during prior one year period and 100 women were included as case (Group II), those were taking oral contraceptives. Again Group II was divided as Group IIA included 50 women who were taking oral contraceptives for 3 months duration or less and Group IIB included 50 women who were taking oral contraceptives for 4 months – 5years duration. Student’s unpaired‘t’ test was used to analyze the data between groups. For analytical purpose 95% confidence limit (p<0.05) was taken as level of significance.

Results: In this study, mean±SD of serum zinc was found as 84±13.33ìgm/dl, 57.88±3.68ìgm/dl and 58.40±4.59ìgm/dl in Group I, Group IIA and Group II B respectively. Serum zinc was significantly low in both Groups IIA and IIB in comparison to Group I (p<0.001).

Conclusion: In this study serum zinc level was significantly lower in women taking OCP in comparison with control individuals who were not taking any hormonal contraceptive.

Per-rectal bleeding due to jejunal Crohn’s: a rare case report from Bangladesh
Authors: Ahmed Shireen , Hoque Md Nazmul , Rahman Md Anisur
Published: February 2020

Crohn’s disease (CD) is a disorder of uncertain etiology that is characterized by transmural inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. CD may involve the entire gastrointestinal tract from mouth to the perianal area. Isolated jejunal involvement of CD is a rare entity. We describe a case of CD involving only jejunum with successful treatment in a 74-years-man who presented with melaena, abdominal pain and significant weight loss. Endoscopy of upper gastro-intestinal tract revealed gastritis and colonoscopy showed small sessile polyp at rectum and sigmoid colon, polypectomy was done accordingly. After few days of polypectomy, he again noticed melaena along with abdominal discomfort and weakness with loss of 4 kg weight within this periods. Diagnosis was confirmed by capsule endoscopy and serology. Treatment was thereafter started with oral steroid and mesalamine sachet. The patient is now on remission and is on regular follow up. CD has propensity to involve the distal small intestine and proximal large bowel. Affected persons usually experience diarrhea and abdominal pain, frequently accompanied by weight loss. Proximal small bowel involvement is less common than distal small bowel or colonic involvement in CD. CD involving proximal small intestine should be suspected in Asian patients with middle gastro-intestinal bleeding. It is associated with a high risk of clinical relapse and morbidity, including the need for abdominal surgery. Different modalities of baseline evaluation and more sophisticated diagnostic modalities may be required for patients with CD involving proximal small bowel. Capsule endoscopy (CE) currently plays an important role in CD.

Published: February 2020

Adrenal sarcomatoid carcinoma (ASC) are very rare and aggressive malignant tumors of adrenal glands containing both epithelial (carcinomatous) and mesenchymal (sarcomatous) components. ASC presents a diagnostic challenge due to its atypical symptoms and histological patterns which influence treatment.At the time of diagnosis, a large percentage of patients are already at the metastatic stage and succumb within a few months. Here, we report a case of functional sarcomatoid carcinoma in right adrenal gland in a 37-year-old female, who presented with new onset hypertension. The patient underwent right sided adrenalectomy and she was alive at the time of writing the current report.To the best of our knowledge, ASC reported in literature to date showed only few patient presented with endocrine hypersecretion and only one patient presented with both hypertension and endocrine dysfunction. So, our case is the rarest among the rare.

Clinico-Laboratory Profile and Drug Sensitivity Pattern in Urinary Tract Infection of Children in a Tertiary Care Hospital
Authors: Paul Nibedita , Nusrat Nadia , Islam Md Rafiqul , Rahman Farhana , Rahman Neshwa
Published: February 2020

Background: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is common in children. About 7% girls and 2% of boys suffer from symptomatic, culture positive UTI by 6 years of age. These children present with poor feeding, irritability, vomiting, fever, abdominal pain or failure to thrive. Now a days antibiotic resistance is a global problem which hampers appropriate treatment of urinary tract infection in children. This study was done to see clinical profile, common pathogens and their drug sensitivity pattern in UTI.

Methodology: It is a prospective study conducted in Delta Medical College & Hospital, Dhaka. All cases collected from outdoor patient or inpatient who were clinically suspected as UTI were enrolled in this study from January 2015 to July 2017. Total 200 cases were included. History was taken properly. Diagnosis of UTI was confirmed by urinalysis and culture sensitivity (C/S). All informations were recorded in preformed data sheet.

Results: Usual presentations of UTI were fever, abdominal pain, vomiting, constipation, urinary complaints, poor feeding, labial adhesion, jaundice, excessive straining. Out of 200 cases 168 were culture positive. Group III age group (> 1year- 5 year) showed higher rate of UTI. UP to one year of age males were more affected than female and beyond one-year females were more affected than male. Most common isolated uropathogen was Escherichia coli. Most sensitive drugs for the pathogen were Imipenem and meropenem (89.39%) - Injectable form and nitrofurantoin (73.48 %)- Oral form.

Conclusion: Presentation of UTI in case of young infant is different from older children. Clinical suspicion is important for early detection of UTI. Before starting antimicrobial therapy, we must do urinalysis and culture sensitive test to prevent recurrent UTI.

Published: February 2020

Background: Acute bronchiolitis is an acute viral lower respiratory tract infection of infants and is the leading cause of hospitalization of infants below 2 years of age. Being a viral disease, there is no effective treatment of this problem other than supportive care. To provide this care, both 0.9% normal saline with salbutamol and 3% hypertonic saline has been found effective. This study was undertaken to assess the efficacy of 7% hypertonic saline on recovery from acute bronchiolitis.

Methodology: This was a randomized controlled trial, carried out in the Department of Paediatrics, Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH), Bangladesh between January 2015 to December 2015. A total of 90 children from 1 month to 2 years of age of either sex who were diagnosed and admitted as acute bronchiolitis were enrolled. After enrollment, they were randomly assigned to either 7% nebulized hypertonic saline (Group-I = 45) or to 0.9% nebulized normal saline with salbutamol (Group-II = 45). The efficacy was determined by assessing clinical severity score and length of hospital stay. Data were analyzed using computer software SPSS version 19.

Result: In this study the two groups were almost similar with respect to their demographic and baseline clinical severity score. After intervention the clinical severity score of both treatment modalities were reduced (Group-I(HS) were 7.9, 6.8, 3.8, 1.4, 1.33 while in Group-II(NS+ Salbutamol) score were 8.6, 7.6, 4.9, 3.11, 2.12) but the reduction was significant more in children who received 7% nebulized hypertonic saline than those who received 0.9% nebulized normal saline with salbutamol. Majority 42(93.3%) of group-I(HS) children recovered at the end of 72 hours whereas 17(37.8%) of the children of group-II (NS+ Salbutamol) recovered from the disease during the same period. Length of hospital stay was shorter in hypertonic saline group compared to normal saline with salbutamol group (56.36±12.33 hours vs71.07±13.48 hours, p<.001). The patients of hypertonic saline group required a shorter duration of oxygen therapy compared to normal saline with salbutamol group (12.53±3.58) hours vs (20.25± 4.15) hours, (p=0.009).

Conclusion: 7% hypertonic saline was found more effective than 0.9% normal saline with salbutamol in terms of reducing clinical severity, length of hospital stays and duration of oxygen therapy.

Talks regarding sexual problems are not encouraging in Bangladesh and sufferers are in grave situation as they are not sure regarding whom to approach and how to start. It was aimed to see the presenting patterns of female sexual dysfunctions (FSD) and co-morbidities among the patients attending at different outpatient departments (OPD) at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU). This descriptive cross sectional study was conducted among 173 female patients attending at gynecology, endocrinology and psychiatry OPD, BSMMU. Sample was taken by convenient sampling within the period of October 2015 to December 2016. Data were collected through face-to-face interview with Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) questionnaire. The results showed that, most (95.95%) of the patients were in the reproductive age group. Majority of the patients (32.95%) were in 26-30 years age group and 24.85% were in 18-25 years age group. Majority (77.5%) belonged to home maker occupational class where 12.7% was service-holder. Fifty six percent of the respondents were found to have sexual dysfunctions and 38.15% patients had endocrinological co-morbidities, 37.57% had gynecological co- morbidities and 33.53% had psychiatric co-morbidities. Positive openness in sexual health is required for the betterment of both treatment and diagnosis of sexual disorders. Specialized service center focusing the different groups is needed to deal with sexual health in a developing country like Bangladesh.
