Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement in Orthopaedic Trauma
Authors: Jayakumar Prakash , Heng Marilyn , Okelana Bandele , Vrahas Mark , Rodriguez-Villalon Antia , Joeris Alexander
Published: June 2023

Patient-reported outcome (PRO) measurements are validated tools developed to quantify self-reported aspects of capability, mindset, and circumstances in a standardized fashion. While PRO measurements have primarily been used in the research realm, a growing body of work now underscores substantial opportunities in applying the data generated by these tools to advance patient-centered musculoskeletal care. Specifically, the insights into a patient's health status derived from these measures can augment the standard biomedical approach to the management of patients with orthopaedic trauma. For instance, PRO measures have demonstrated the high prevalence of psychological distress and social concerns within trauma populations and shown that mindsets and circumstances account for a substantial amount of the variation in levels of symptom intensity and capability in these patients. Such findings support the need for a more integrated, biopsychosocial, and multidisciplinary team-based approach to orthopaedic trauma care that include both technical and nontechnical skillsets. In this chapter, we explore the range of available fixed-scale and computer adaptive PRO measures that can quantify aspects of capability, mindsets, and circumstances of the patient with orthopaedic trauma during their experience of injury, recovery, and rehabilitation. Furthermore, we define human, technical, and system-level challenges within the often complex, dynamic, and clinically intense trauma setting. Finally, we highlight potential opportunities through successfully implementing PRO measurements for clinical decision support, shared decision making, predicting health outcomes, and developing advanced care pathways for patients and populations with orthopaedic trauma.

Published: June 2023

Introduction:

Postoperative radiographs are used to monitor fractures of the tibia and femur after intramedullary fixation. This study sought to examine how frequently these radiographs change management.

Methods:

This was a single-center chart review of patients over a 4-year period at a level I trauma center. Radiographs were defined as either performed for routine surveillance or performed with some clinical correlate on history and examination. Participants received intramedullary nailing for diaphyseal fractures of the femur or tibia. Patients required at least one postoperative radiograph. All patients were subject to our institution's follow-up protocol: visits at 2, 6, 12, and 24 weeks. Radiographs that changed management were those that led to alterations in follow-up, directed counseling, or contributed to the decision to proceed with revision surgery.

Results:

A total of 374 patients were found. Two hundred seventy-seven received at least one post-op radiograph. The median follow-up was 23 weeks. Six hundred seventeen total radiographs were reviewed. Nine radiographs contributed to a change in management (9/617 = 1.5%). No surveillance radiograph taken before 14 weeks resulted in changes in management.

Discussion:

Our results suggest that radiographs taken in the first 3 months post-op in asymptomatic patients treated with lower extremity intramedullary rods do not result in changes to clinical management.

Utang cenderung meningkatkan nilai PDB dan menurunkan angka kemiskinan. Dalam hal tata kelola utang sebagai pendorong perekonomian dan kemiskinan, Era Soeharto dan Era Habibie cenderung berbeda dan lebih baik dari Era Soekarno. Sementara tatakelola utang Era Abdurrahman wahid, Era Megawati, Era SBY dan Era Jokowi tidak berbeda atau tidak lebih baik dari Era Soekarno. Meski secara nasional dapat meningkatkan PDB dan menurunkan kemiskinan, utang tidak mampu meningkatkan kesejahteraan rakyat (baca pendapatan perkapita). Utang luar negeri bahkan cenderung menurunkan tingkat kesejahteraan rakyat banyak. Ini berlaku untuk semua rezim pemerintahan.

Models of Religious Conflict Resolution in Multicultural Societies
Authors: Suwarno Didik , Mawardi Kholid
Published: June 2023

Religious conflicts occur because of differences in concepts carried out by the followers of the religion itself. The emergence of judgments from one group to another usually triggers religious conflicts. This research is qualitative research, that is library research using data sources in the form of reference books and scientific journal articles. The results of this study provide three models for resolving religious conflicts, namely: 1. Handling strength-based social conflicts. 2. Handling socio-religious conflicts on a rights-based basis rests on the superiority of the rights of one party over the rights of others. 3. Handling is based on importance. As an Indonesian nation respects differences, builds mutual care, tolerance, because Indonesia is a big country that has many tribes, cultures, and religions. If we do not build mutual care, tolerance and respect for differences, it will be difficult to maintain the unity and unity of Indonesia.

As provided for in the Department of Education Order No. 43. s. 2015, teachers are encouraged to engage in research to improve the delivery of basic education. Moreover, DepEd has instituted research to promote an environment of evidence-based decision-making and establish a culture of research. Hence, this study was made. The study aimed to look into the teachers’ and school heads’ engagement in action research specifically identifying the needs and administrative support of elementary schools. Specifically, it sought to answer the following questions: How many teachers and school heads are engage in action research?; What are the factors the influence teachers and school heads to engage in action research?; What are the teachers’ and school heads challenge’s and needs in conducting action research?; What administrative support was needed by the teachers and school heads in the conduct of action research? And What research enhancement plan can be proposed based on the findings of the study? Based on the findings of the study, it concludes that teachers and school heads identified action research as beneficial to their academic undertaking since the majority of them were engaged in action research. However, they also emphasized that conducting action research was not an easy task and there were challenges along the way that somehow affected their desire to finish their research work. The findings implied that policy-makers and school administrators may consider and address the research needs of these educators to inspire more school personnel to be actively involved. Hence, when a community of teacher-researchers is formed, school concerns like instruction, facilities, and student performance and behavior are directly and instantaneously addressed.

The transition in the educational system places pressure on all academic institutions and their stakeholders upon the strike of a pandemic. The issues of readiness of the students and faculty are a concern. An immediate shift from face-to-face classes to online learning was implemented. Students’ everyday experiences had been controlled. They were confined to the four corners of their house with their cellphone, iPad, or desktop. Different activities in school were missed by the students which cause stress and anxiety. This study aims to investigate the potential effects of online learning on the mental health condition (particularly stress and anxiety) of students and faculty in the university. One hundred thirty-eight (138) students and sixteen (16) faculties completed the Perceived Stress Scale (10 items), Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7 (GAD 7- 7 items), and Psychological Well-Being (18 items). In-depth interviews with students and select faculty were done for the qualitative part to understand their experience, challenges, difficulty, and benefits online. Students and faculty reported feeling stressed and anxious not only because of COVID-19 dangers but also due to social and physical limitations, lack of familiarity with new learning platforms, technical difficulties, poor connection, and life-work balance challenges. Self-care had been very essential to students and faculty for them to cope with new normal learning. Keywords: Mental health, Psychological well-being, Stress, Anxiety, Self-care, Mixed Method

Spirituality was defined as a way individuals seek and express meaning and purpose and the way they experience their connectedness to the moment. Studies showed that spiritual beliefs provided comfort to cancer patients and that different dimensions were related to the different aspects of health. The study aims to determine and correlate the effects of spirituality and the quality of life among patients enrolled in the outpatient chemotherapy clinic. An analytical cross-sectional study using a non-probability convenience sampling was done of which validated questionnaires on the Spirituality and Quality of Life were the research instruments of the study. Pearson’s correlation coefficient/Spearman rho computed on the relationship between the dimensions of spirituality and subscales of the quality of life among cancer patients. Chi-Square/Fisher’s test was used to determine the correlation between the types and stages of cancer with the quality of life and spirituality of the respondents. A total of 105 cancer patients participated in this study, This study revealed that most of the cancer patients enrolled in the outpatient chemotherapy clinic had a mean score of 3.56 +/- 0.35 indicating a moderate to high level of spirituality. It also showed a mean score of 5.41 +/- 0.53 indicating high QOLs. Dimensions of spirituality that were found to have a significant association with QOL domains (p-values < 0.05) were Mindfulness and Feeling of Security which were both found to have a positive correlation with Emotional Well-being and Social Status. Spiritual care should be included as one of the non-pharmacological modalities in the comprehensive management and palliative care for Filipino cancer patients to improve the overall well-being, healthcare outcomes, and quality of life of patients and their families.

This study is about the meaningful academic maturation process that an aspiring teacher must undertake to be fully prepared, equipped, and nurtured to become a school head. Alongside the other elements of being a school head like the experiential learnings, effects of the colleagues in the academe, and the problems or challenges the informants have encountered in their pursuit toward their present administrative functions and will present a descriptive and comprehensive data on their preparations of being a school head. The researcher made use of the technique of mixed method in gathering information. This study found out that superiors in the academe positively influence the teachers leading to administrative functions in terms of professional motivation. On account of this, the aforementioned hierarchical officials play an important role in inspiring and motivating future school administrators. The data gathered showed that various factors such as continuing professional development, years of teaching and leadership experience, regular workshops and training, coaching and mentoring from current school heads, knowledge, and compliance with the laws in the field of education- all together are what comprise the effective maturation process for teachers leading to administrative functions. Furthermore, the informants believed that experiential learning is an essential maturation process in preparation for administrative functions. After examining the data that were transcribed from the interviews, themes emerged. Seeking advice, Flexibility to the work environment, Community and Political dealings, Workload issues, Instructional and Good leadership. Therefore, current school officials represent a very important role in the academic maturation of teachers in preparation for administrative functions. Finally, the proposed Program/Curriculum Enrichment/ Technology Program for this study, a guidebook on becoming a school head was devised to help aspiring teachers on their journey to becoming a fully equipped school head ready to serve the pupils, the teachers, the educational system, and the community.

The introduction of ChatGPT by OpenAI in November 2022 has garnered much discussion and debate. The technology’s potential, which generates conversations in real-time using machine learning and natural language processing methods, has led to fears of job displacement (Lowrey, 2023) and student cheating (Mitchell, 2023; Cotton et al., 2023). However, the technology has not only brought fear, but also great expectations on the potential of the technology as a helpful educational aid (Ceres, 2023) and in expanding human potential (Hoffman, 2023). In this article, the use of ChatGPT is explored as a way to help students understand and improve their English grammar in comparison with Grammarly and ProWritingAid. A short text by a Japanese university is analyzed using Grammarly, ProWritingAid, and ChatGPT. The results found that, overall, ChatGPT provides the most helpful and best overall solution in helping Japanese English Language Learners (ELLs) with their grammar. Based on the results of the ChatGPT analysis, the application was introduced to first-year Japanese university students in a paragraph writing assignment. Questionnaire results on how students felt about the use of ChatGPT as a grammar-checker are presented.

Countermeasures for the development of industry-based university foundations in the new era
Authors: Li Xuan
Published: June 2023

The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China points out that education, science and technology, and talent are the basic and strategic support for the construction of a modern socialist country in all respects. It has pointed out the direction and development path for the development of universities as well as university foundations. Starting from the history, current situation and future development of university foundations, this paper proposes to fully understand the great significance of the new era and enhance the sense of mission in the work of university foundations; to deeply understand the connotation of the work and continuously deepen the understanding of the regularity of university foundations; to accurately grasp the development trend of the industry and continuously create a new situation for the development of university foundations. The industry-based university foundations should take the spirit of the 20th National Congress as the guide, combine the characteristics and discipline advantages of the university, focus on improving the quality of talent cultivation, scientific research and innovation level, and social service capacity, take multiple measures to comprehensively improve the governance capacity and contribute to the construction of a leading education country.
A Prototype for Automated Delimitation of Work Cycles from Machine Sensor Data in Cable Yarding Operations

Published: June 2023

The demand for increased efficiency in timber harvesting has traditionally been met by continuous technical improvements in machines and an increase in mechanisation. The use of active and passive sensors on machines enables improvements in aspects such as operational efficiency, fuel consumption and worker safety. Timber harvesting machine manufacturers have used these technologies to improve the maintenance and control of their machines, to select and optimise harvesting techniques and fuel consumption. To a more limited extent, it has also been used to evaluate the time taken to complete tasks. The systematic use of machine sensor data, in a central database or cloud solution is a more recent trend.Machine data is recorded over long periods of time and at high resolution. This data therefore has considerable potential for scientific investigations. For mechanised timber harvesting operations, this could include a better understanding of the interaction between productivity and operational parameters, which first of all requires an efficient determination of cycle time.This study was the first to automatically delimitate tower yarder cycle times from machine sensor data. In addition to machine sensor data, cycle times were collected through a traditional manual time and motion study, and cycle times from both studies were compared to a reference cycle time determined from video footage of the yarder in operation.Based on three days of detailed time study, the total cycle time in the classic manual time (–1.3%) and in the machine sensor data (–1.2%) was only slightly shorter than in the reference study, and the average cycle time did not differ significantly (classic manual time study: –0.08±0.94 min, p=0.997; machine sensor data study: –0.08±0.26 min, p=0.997). However, the accuracy of the machine sensor approach (RMSE=0.92) was more than three times higher than that of the classic manual time study (RMSE=0.27).With the integration of sensors on forestry machines now being commonplace, this study shows that machine sensor data can be reliably interpreted for time study purposes such as machine or system optimisation. This eliminates the need for manual time study, which can be both cumbersome and dependent on the experience of the observer, and allows long term data sets to be obtained and analysed with comparatively little effort. However, a truly automated time study needs to be supplemented with automated determination of and linkage to other operational parameters, such as yarding and lateral yarding distance or load volume.

Een analyse van de wetsgeschiedenis leidt tot de conclusie dat aan deze begrippen zowel in de uitvoeringspraktijk van de Regionale Toetsingscommissies Euthanasie als in de vakliteratuur een andere betekenis wordt toegekend dan de wetgever destijds voor ogen heeft gestaan.
The Invisible Reality of Quantum Mechanics: The ‎‎‎Deterministic Perspective
Authors:   According to the request of the author of this article, the affiliation has been secured with Hyperscience International Journal, Herrebrugh ‎ Albert V
Published: June 2023

The fundamental deterministic nature of quantum mechanics (QM) is mathematically demonstrated by the modeling of the ‎‎‎quantum (multiple) slit experiments; hence this paper is written from a deterministic perspective (DP) in quantum mechanics.‎ ‎Due to approximately 90 years of indeterminism and probabilistic statistical results, the theory consists of many ‎‎‎interpretations and is often regarded as counterintuitive. The latter is in the deterministic perspective not the case and is ‎‎‎illustrated with some examples. After a brief historic perspective, ‘invisible’ i.e. invisible entities of reality in mathematical ‎‎‎treatment, are introduced. These entities are handled by mathematics indirectly i.e. are described in a transformed domain ‎‎‎without variables violating the Heisenberg relation. In nature, i.e. on micro and macro levels, causality is fully ‘entangled’ with ‎‎‎energy, information - in the meaning of ordering or coding - as well as time. In contrast with the macro scale with many forms ‎‎‎and types of memory functions, without a memory property of quanta, causality is the bearer of information symmetry on ‎‎the ‎quantum scale. Further on in this DP paper: mathematical and philosophical consequences and influences in several ‎‎‎paragraphs, regarding subjects such as ‘free will’ and expected ‘threats to science’, the Bell inequalities, Alice and Bob & ‎‎‎entanglement, causality, information, retro-causality, spooky action, encryption and computing, teleportation, and in general ‎‎‎interpretations rooted in indeterminacy in QM as well as associated topics on independence, fine-tuning. The last paragraph ‎‎‎outlines the mathematical treatment of QM more extensively and may clarify references to the above-mentioned topics of ‎‎‎discussion in QM further.‎

Background: Coronary slow flow phenomenon (CSFP) is a medical challenge, especially regarding its diagnosis. The use of speckle tracking seems to provide a clue for diagnosis. However, its role is not well addressed.

Aim of the work: To assess the value of the left ventricle's global longitudinal strain by 2D speckle tracking to detect subclinical left ventricular systolic dysfunction in patients with the slow coronary flow.

Patients and methods: This study was performed between May and September 2020 at the cardiology department, Al-Azhar University Hospital (New Damietta).  Thirty patients are known to have slow coronary flow based on a previous coronary angiographic examination, and 30 healthy participants with the same demographic match (age and sex) as a control group were included. Patients were classified into two groups: Group (A): Included 30 patients with a coronary slow flow. Group (B): Included 30 normal healthy adult persons served as a control group.  All were assessed clinically and by radiological investigations. In addition, speckle tracking echocardiography was done for all patients.

Results:  In Doppler flow measures, E wave and E/A ratio showed significantly lower values in CSFP when compared with the control group (p= 0.02, 0.003 respectively). According to tissue velocity imaging (TVI), there is a similarity between both groups without any significant difference.  Speckle tracking measurements demonstrate significantly lower value in patients with CSFP than the control group (p=0.003).

Conclusion: In patients with CSF, LV systolic function detected during both conventional and tissue Doppler echocardiographic examinations was not affected, but 2D longitudinal strain demonstrated that LV systolic function was impaired. CSFP could impair LV diastolic function.

El objetivo de estudio es identificar y caracterizar las estrategias aplicadas por los docentes del programa de Licenciatura en Enseñanza del Francés para promover la participación de sus estudiantes en el aula virtual frente a los nuevos retos derivados de la pandemia donde la modalidad virtual requiere la adaptación de contenidos a un formato digital y el desarrollo de nuevas estrategias que posibiliten el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje. El diseño metodológico de la presente investigación es cuantitativo descriptivo con corte transversal. Los datos se obtuvieron a partir de las respuestas obtenidas de los cuestionarios aplicadas a los alumnos del programa Licenciatura en Enseñanza del Francés (LEF), quienes cursaron materias en modalidad virtual durante el periodo otoño 2021. Los indicios identifican a las estrategias discursivas como promotoras de la participación en el entorno virtual haciéndose patentes en tres ámbitos: en la construcción de conocimiento, en el área socio afectiva y en los recursos digitales. Se puede afirmar que los docentes generan un ambiente de confianza y una actitud empática para incentivar las contribuciones del alumno en estos entornos, sin embargo, existe una clara limitación del uso de medios digitales generadores de intervención y participación activa.

Este trabajo realiza una aportación reflexiva, construida a partir de diferentes procesos de investigación, sobre los conceptos de educación global y educación para la ciudadanía global y la relación que ambos términos tienen con el fomento de la participación como promotora de la ciudadanía global. Se analizan las causas que han motivado la introducción en el debate académico de la relación entre educación, ciudadanía y participación. Los autores y autoras, miembros del Grupo de Pedagogía Social (GPS) para la inclusión y cohesión social de la Universidad de Barcelona, presentan un conjunto de experiencias; basadas en el análisis de proyectos de investigación desarrollados en los últimos años, que ahondan en esta relación y cómo desde la praxis de la participación cívica-social se fomentan los valores de una educación para la ciudadanía global. El artículo finaliza con una aportación propia que recoge un conjunto de elementos pedagógicos que fomentan la participación cívica-social.

Volumen 15, Número Especial II (2022) - La participación como herramienta educativa para la inclusión, la convivencia y el éxito educativo
Tal y como señalan las organizaciones internacionales de referencia (UE, ONU, UNESCO), la participación es un factor de integración social y educativa que ha de desarrollarse desde la primera infancia. Promover formas de vida conjuntas en un marco de respeto a la diversidad, la participación y el desarrollo democrático, se ha convertido en un compromiso adoptado por ministerios de educación de diferentes países del mundo. El Consejo de Europa (2010), señala la importancia de fomentar una educación que posibilite la participación del alumnado en la sociedad, entendiendo la participación como una herramienta fundamental para el desarrollo de la convivencia y la inclusión.

Centrally Thrombosed Renal Angiomyolipoma: A COVID-Induced Pathology?
Authors: A. Naoun Adrian
Published: June 2023

Renal Angiomyolipomas (AMLs) are benign neoplastic entities paradigmatically composed of smooth muscle, blood vessels, and adipose tissue. The cornerstone of renal AML identification fundamentally entails imaging; however, findings may rarely resemble malignancy and subsequently obfuscate diagnosis. Compellingly, the comorbid effect of viral diseases such as COVID-19 on neoplasm integrity and morphology remains incompletely understood. The following case reports a 46-year-old female presenting with intermittent right flank pain persisting for three weeks. Preliminary sonographic studies revealed a predominantly echogenic, space-occupying lesion with well-defined margins in the right renal cortex undergoing angiogenesis. Shortly thereafter, the patient contracted COVID-19, and the right flank pain progressed to a debilitatingly constant nature described as sharp, stabbing, and aggravating to an eight on a scale of ten. Recovery was uncomplicated; however, the patient presented with mild thrombocytopenia. Contrast-enhanced CT scans elucidated a compelling hypodense mass center suggesting the presence of an encapsulated thrombus accompanied by further invasion of Morison’s pouch 25 days post-initial identification. Histopathological examination of the surgically excised specimen confirmed the likely diagnosis of a centrally thrombosed renal angiomyolipoma. Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARSCoV-2) infection may have ostensibly contributed to neoplasm morphology alterations and subsequent thrombosis, as intrinsic renal cell damage is welldocumented in the literature. Consequently, clinicians must remain vigilant that radiographic abnormalities may emerge secondary to comorbid viral diseases such as COVID-19 via incompletely understood mechanism(s).

Este artigo apresenta um processo participativo com a comunidade escolar de brinquedos educativos fabricados digitalmente e uma metodologia de desenvolvimento de aulas para o desenvolvimento de habilidades cognitivas, comportamentais e mistas como a criatividade. Assim como, os resultados parciais da mensuração da criatividade a partir de uma metodologia de pré e pós teste aplicados ao longo das aulas ministrados para três turmas do primeiro, ao  terceiro anos do ensino fundamental de uma escola pública, denominado Missão Maker Escolas. Aplicado em paralelo a um conjunto de aulas, denominado Missão Maker Livre. A metodologia envolve cocriação entre os saberes da arquitetura e da comunidade escolar (alunos, professores e pais), por meio da construção de brinquedos educativos, desenhos 2D e 3D, programação e eletrônica. O teste de criatividade em si é composto por peças intercambiáveis em papelão fabricadas digitalmente (tiras e canaletas) e acessórios. A avaliação é baseada em nota geral única e nota por critérios, conferido por juízes, conforme estudado, elencado e adaptado da revisão bibliográfica. Como resultado se tem a importância do aprendizado com a observação de seus pares (colegas) e do repertório relacionado a materiais, acessórios, encaixes e experiência de construção de diversos brinquedos, para ativar a criatividade da criança.

Nossa Casa, microcosmo de um mundo perfeito

Thomas Mann, um dos maiores escritores da literatura alemã e universal, dizia em seu exílio nos Estados Unidos durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial: “Eu sou a Alemanha”. Afastado da sua pátria, fazia oposição ao nazismo. Do outro lado do Atlântico, enviava mensagens para o seu povo, numa tentativa de se fazer presente e de libertar os alemães daquele regime. Sonhava em voltar para o seu país. Depois da guerra, não voltou porque lá certamente não se sentia em casa. Há dois mil anos, Jesus Cristo dizia: “Eu sou o Reino de Deus”, “Onde dois ou três estiverem reunidos em meu nome eu estou no meio deles.” “O Reino de Deus está em vocês.” Assim como os alemães esperaram pela volta de Thomas Mann, também os cristãos, há dois mil anos, esperam pela volta de Cristo. O escritor alemão certamente já voltou para a sua pátria e para os alemães de acordo com o seu sonho de um país democrático. O mestre volta para a sua nação quando nela se sente em casa. No caso cristão, o mestre ainda não voltou. Será que não voltou porque não quer ou porque não encontra um espaço sequer, no qual se sinta em casa e no qual pudesse repousar a cabeça, um espaço do tamanho de um grão de mostarda, um espaço mínimo que corresponda ao país de seus sonhos, um espaço do tamanho de Nossa Casa, o Reino de Deus, no qual dois ou mais estivessem reunidos em seu nome? Se Cristo afirma “eu sou o Reino de Deus” e pede aos seus discípulos que façam o mesmo, não é verdade que o mestre só pode voltar quando um de seus discípulos transformar o espaço da sua casa numa unidade mínima do Reino de Deus e, assim, afirmar “eu sou o Reino de Deus” de acordo com o sonho de seu mestre? Está aí a diferença entre o mestre e o discípulo: O mestre é a obra da qual fala. O discípulo fala da obra do mestre, mas ainda não está à altura de se transformar na obra da qual fala o mestre, o Reino de Deus.
