Authors: Juliana Mutia , M.G Sianipar Imelda , Aditya Willyanto Nathan
Published: June 2023

Background: Hand hygiene has been regarded as the most efficient technique in nosocomial infections control.

Aim: This study aims to summarize and evaluate the impact of hand hygiene practices among health care workers for prevention of nosocomial infection.

Methods: A systematic search strategy was conducted across several electronic reference databases (PubMed, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar) and included articles published between 2019–2023. Duplicate publications, review articles, and incomplete articles were excluded.

Results: The databases search identified a total of 19.427articles (Table 1). Of these, 120 articles passed the screening process, resulting in 20 articles for full-text assessment. Among them, 13 articles contain insufficient details regarding the focus of interest. Hence, we found 7 appropriate studies.

Conclusion: Our study found that hand hygiene practices is a preventive measure for NIs and it seems that hand rubbing appeared to be more effective than hand washing as a hand-hygiene strategy, albeit with evidence of low to moderate quality. This strategy promotes the use of hand-rubbing in intensive care units for improved clinical outcomes for patients and healthcare providers.

Published: June 2023

La medición del capital intelectual es un reto para las universidades que tienen facultades y programas en educación virtual, lo cual implica una revisión y una aproximación desde la evolución de los modelos financieros, las diversas experiencias a nivel Latinoamérica y los marcos normativos para establecer los lineamientos que contribuyen el reconocimiento, la medición, la monetización y la evaluación de los intangibles. A nivel metodológico, se realizó la revisión documental desde el método hipotético-deductivo para demostrar la relación existente entre el estándar Iberoamericano para la educación virtual definido en consenso desde la Organización de Estados Iberoamericanos y los tipos de capital intelectual en la modalidad (capital humano, estructural, relacional, innovación y aprendizaje y social). Los resultados muestran una mayor representación del capital estructural compuesto por lo organizacional y tecnológico seguido por el capital relacional, los cuales se soportan en el capital humano, generando un cambio de paradigma que no se limita al inventario de los recursos sino al uso del conocimiento en los procesos, la cultura, la satisfacción de los grupos de interés y la gestión de la información, con factores de resultado como el capital social desde la responsabilidad social universitaria y el relacionamiento universidad-empresa-sociedad, la innovación y el aprendizaje para el mejoramiento del sistema.
From Brushstrokes to Pixels: Analyzing the Evolution of Political Propaganda in Visual Media
Authors: Ahmed Ala Beshank , Fatah Shajwan N. , Ahmed Atta Abdalwahid
Published: June 2023

Leaders, particularly those associated with fascist ideologies, employ visual media as a tool to construct and propagate certain doctrines within the general populace. In this scholarly endeavor, our pursuit revolves around elucidating the profound interplay between art and photography as potent instruments of persuasive communication. First, readers will meet a brief historical background of both mechanisms. Later, in the literature review, several studies will be presented in which critics have shed light on art and photography as effective ways for political propaganda, by analyzing their synergistic relationship and impact on individuals. The argument will be integrated with the works of both Roland Bathes and Walter Benjamin. In the final part of this paper, we provide a few visual representations of both Western and Eastern political figures – King Henry VIII, Napoleon Bonaparte, Adolf Hitler, and Saddam Hussein – who have framed the population’s perception through the impact of their artistic weaponry.

The accurate and timely segmentation of COVID-19 infection areas from CT scans is crucial for effective diagnosis and treatment planning. In this paper, we propose an automated approach utilizing machine learning techniques for COVID-19 infection segmentation. The proposed framework utilizes a convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture to extract informative features from CT scan images. These features are then fed into a segmentation model, which employs a combination of U-Net and attention mechanisms for accurate delineation of infection regions. To enhance the model's performance, we employ a transfer learning strategy by pretraining the CNN on a large dataset of general medical images. To evaluate the effectiveness of our approach, we conducted experiments on a diverse dataset consisting of CT scans from COVID-19 patients. The results demonstrate the superiority of our method in accurately segmenting infection areas, achieving an average Dice coefficient of 0.92 and a Jaccard index of 0.88. The proposed automated segmentation method offers significant potential for aiding radiologists and clinicians in identifying COVID-19 infection regions from CT scans rapidly and accurately. It can contribute to improved diagnosis, patient management, and treatment planning in the fight against the ongoing pandemic.
“Kolori, Sirkuli”: Semantic Relations of the Indigenized English Lexemes in Cebuano
Authors: D.K.J.R.C Talde , A.H.R Lovitos
Published: June 2023

This study investigated the use of indigenized English lexemes (IELs) in Cebuano, specifically focusing on the Mother Tongue-Based Multilingual Language Education (MTB-MLE) Sinugbuanong Binisaya textbooks. These IELs have been prevalent despite the existence of the equivalent words and language policy being enforced. Specifically, this study sought to: identify the linguistic features of the IELs; determine the semantic relations associated with the IELs; and explore how Cebuano IELs reflect the cultural norms of its users. A qualitative research design was employed, utilizing textual analysis and thematic analysis. The findings reveal notable phonological and morphological features in the IELs. Phonologically, insertion, deletion, and substitution processes were observed, while morphologically, changes in the inflectional affixes of verbs were highlighted, specifically through the use of the common affixes gi, i-, -i, and nag-. Furthermore, the IELs exhibit various semantic relations that include contrasts, similarities, class inclusion, case relations, and part-whole relationships. Finally, emergent themes demonstrate how IELs in Cebuano reflect the cultural norms of its users, encompassing preferences in teaching styles, classroom observations involving IELs, teaching goals and intentions, thoughts and attitudes, and challenges encountered with the MTB-MLE program. The study concludes that language borrowing offers functional advantages and remains essential even in the teaching of a mother tongue such as Cebuano. Future studies could explore IELs in informal contexts such as magazines, advertisements, and social media, investigate the semantic changes of IELs in Cebuano, and conduct longitudinal studies on the effects of the MTB-MLE program on its learners.

Published: June 2023

This study aimed to gain insight into the SLPs' views about bilingualism and the approach toward the assessment and management of bilingual children with language disorders in the Indian context. The survey included a single questionnaire consisting of 31 questions, involving multiple choice questions, open questions, and Likert scales. It elicited information about demographic data of SLPs, the history of their language and use; SLPs' views about bilingualism concerning clinical practice and theoretical aspects; and SLPs' professional practice and caseload. The survey was conducted in online mode using the google forms platform and it was circulated through e-mail and social media platforms with the link to the online google forms questionnaire. A sample of 33 professionals across (n=29 from urban & n=4 from rural backgrounds) India took part in the study. The education level of the professionals varied from bachelor's to Postdoctoral degrees. The professionals' work experience ranged from one year to eight years. Most of the professionals except three worked at second-tier city levels. This survey was designed to examine current practices for the assessment and management of language disorders in bilingual children.  Heterogeneity in the views and approach towards bilingualism was observed. Consensus is needed among the professionals who are practicing regarding the assessment and management of bilingual children. Professionals' mixed views towards bilingualism might be addressed by initial and ongoing continuing education focused on typical bilingual development and second language acquisition.

Authors: Isnaini Araina , Risna Wijayanti  , Sumiati
Published: June 2023

Islamic Financing in Indonesia has not fully received the public's attention because the application of Islamic financing does not follow Sharia principles and Islamic law. This literature review aims to assist in understanding Islamic financing concerning the intention to use Islamic financing from the perspective of MSME owner-managers. Literature review method based on journals related to the keywords "attitude, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, religiosity, Islamic financing" on the website https://scholar.google.com in the period 2013-2022. The results of previous research are summarized into four points: (1) most of the research was conducted in countries with Muslim majority populations; (2) the Theory of Planned Behavior was used as the theory underlying the research; (3) religiosity is an additional predictor because it is related to acceptance Islamic Financing by Muslim; and (4) the majority of research subjects are owner-manager of SMEs. The conclusion is the influence of individual assessment (attitudes) and social groups (subjective norms) affects individual control in the decision-making process by individuals. Religiosity may play a role in strengthening the relationship between individual assessment and social groups of perceived behavioral control. In the end, individual control influences the intention to use Islamic Financing.

Authors: Ahmed Rehan , Bibi Maria , Syed Sibtain
Published: June 2023

The largest cause of mortality worldwide is heart disease, and early identification is critical in limiting disease development. Early approaches for detecting cardiovascular illnesses assisted in determining the progressions that should have happened in high-risk persons, reducing their risks. The major goal is to save lives by recognising anomalies in cardiac circumstances, which will be performed by identifying and analysing raw data produced from cardiac information. Machine learning can provide an efficient method for making decisions and creating accurate forecasts. Machine learning techniques are being used extensively in the medical business. A unique machine learning technique is provided in the proposed study to predict cardiac disease. The planned study made advantage of open source heart disease dataset from kaggle. Hybrid algorithms for machine learning prediction are the logical mixture of many previous methodologies designed to improve efficiency and produce improved outcomes. The presented work introduces a hybrid method that employs the notion of categorization for prediction analysis. We used real patient data to build a hybrid technique to predicting cardiac disease. KNN and SVM classification techniques were utilized in this paper. Jupyter Notebook is used to implement this hybrid method. A hybrid technique outperforms other algorithms in the prediction analysis of heart disease.

GROG-pCS: GRAPPA Operator Gridding with CS-based p-thresholding for Under-sampled Radially Encoded MRI
Authors: Aamir Fariha , Bhatti Hussnain , Aslam Ibtisam , Najeeb Faisal , Omer Hammad
Published: June 2023

Major limitation of MRI is long scan time. Compressed Sensing (CS) is a contemporary technique used to accelerate MRI scan time. In CS, fully sampled MRI images are reconstructed from the partially acquired k-space data. In CS MRI, the utilization of a non-linear reconstruction algorithm is one of the key requirements for successful signal recovery. Numerous methods have been used in CS for solving the non-linear problems to get the solution image. In this paper, we proposed GRAPPA Operator gridding (GROG) with CS-based p-thresholding to reconstruct the artefact free MR images from the partially acquired radial k-space data. In this proposed scheme, initially radially acquired under-sampled k-space data is mapped onto Cartesian space using GROG gridding and then CS reconstruction is performed by using iterative p-thresholding. The proposed method is tested on four MRI data sets, (i) simulated Shepp-Logan phantom, (ii) 1.5T human brain data, (iii) 3T human brain, and (iv) 3T short-axial cardiac (SA) radial data. The reconstruction results are compared with the CS-based iterative hard-thresholding and soft-thresholding reconstructions. The quality of the solution images is evaluated by using (i) Artifact Power (AP), (ii) Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), and (iii) Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR).

Workplace Diversity and its effects on team dynamics and productivity
Authors:   Department of CSE, SCSVMV Deemed to be University, India, Gomathy Dr C K
Published: June 2023

This essay examines workplace diversity, focusing on the recently discussed growing challenges. In light of the demographic differences among employees in terms of age, gender, race, ethnicity, and culture that typically influence productivity and business performance, such a diverse or heterogeneous work environment is largely a result of trade liberalisation and globalisation, which enable productive factor inputs to travel freely between countries. The inclusion of workforce diversity comes with some benefits, such as the formation of a collaborative and team-based learning environment, better productivity, and higher profits. It is important to be aware that there are certain new problems with workforce diversity, such as a multicultural work environment, a vast talent pool that may be leveraged for innovation and creation, inter-functional coordination, complexity, and workplace discrimination. Globalisation, migration, the ageing population, outsourcing, women's employment, etc. all contribute to these problems. An organisation should have a framework for managing workplace diversity; this will allow for the best resource allocation to build a multicultural workforce that is engaged and productive. Keywords: Workplace Diversity, Discrimination, Globalization, Multicultural, Inter-functional, Team Participation
Fortidrop: Cloud-based secure file-sharing tool using Cryptography
Authors: Bakane Sumit
Published: June 2023

The increasing prevalence of data breaches and cyber risks has made secure file sharing a crucial requirement in today's digital world. A cloud- based file-sharing solution has been developed, employing various cryptographic techniques to address this. This tool ensures the secrecy, integrity, and authenticity of shared files. It utilizes symmetric encryption to encrypt file contents, allowing only authorized users with the decryption key to access the file. Asymmetric encryption is used to securely share the decryption key, while digital signatures verify the integrity and authenticity of transferred files. Robust authentication technologies, such as multi-factor authentication, and role-based access control are implemented to ensure authorized user access and manage permissions. End-to-end encryption further enhances security by encrypting files on the sender's device and decrypting them on the recipient's device without intermediary server involvement. This technology significantly improves the security and privacy of shared files, reducing the risk of data breaches and unauthorized access.

Published: June 2023

BACKGROUND: Although culture remains the standard for TB diagnosis, 15–20% of patients diagnosed and treated for TB are culture-negative. We explored clinical characteristics, risk factors and treatment outcomes for culture-negative TB in a Peruvian cohort.METHODS:
We recruited 4,500 index TB patients and 10,160 household contacts in Lima, Peru, and enrolled 692 secondary patients diagnosed with TB during follow-up of household contacts. We analyzed smear and culture status, sociodemographic factors, clinical characteristics and TB treatment outcomes
to compare culture-negative and positive patients.RESULTS: Of the 4,880 adult patients, 915 (18.8%) were culture-negative. Culture-negative patients were less likely to report symptoms of TB disease and disease of longer duration. A multivariate analysis showed no statistically
significant difference in loss to follow-up, treatment failure or recurrence between the culture-negative and -positive groups but a higher rate of death among culture-negative patients with an adjusted OR of 1.65 (95% CI 1.05–2.60). In a multivariate analysis of determinants of culture
negativity, older age, substance use and being a secondary case were associated with culture status.CONCLUSIONS: More recognition and awareness of culture-negative TB is key for early and correct diagnosis to reduce transmission and improve treatment outcomes.

BACKGROUND: Multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) treatment for children frequently includes unpalatable drugs with low overall acceptability. This can negatively impact children and their caregivers´ treatment experiences and is an important contributor to poor adherence, and
potentially, poor treatment outcomes. Children and their caregivers´ preferences for MDR-TB treatment are not well documented. We describe children and caregivers´ priorities to inform future MDR-TB treatment regimens.METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional qualitative
study at a TB hospital in South Africa using semi-structured interviews and participatory research activities with caregivers and children routinely diagnosed and treated for MDR-TB between June and August 2018.RESULTS: We conducted 15 interviews with children and their caregivers.
Children ranged from 2 to 17 years of age (median age: 8.3 years). Children and caregivers had an overall negative experience of MDR-TB treatment. Children and caregivers described how future MDR-TB drugs and regimens should prioritise sweeter flavours, fewer pills, brighter colours, and formulations
that are easy to prepare and administer and dispensed in colourful, small and discrete packaging.CONCLUSIONS: MDR-TB treatment acceptability remains low, and negatively impacts children and their caregivers´ treatment experiences. Improving the overall acceptability of MDR-TB
treatment requires engaging with children and their caregivers to better understand their priorities for new treatment regimens and child-friendly formulations.

As Redes de Atenção à Saúde (RASs), como formas efetivas de produção econômica, podem ser estruturadas em arranjos produtivos híbridos que combinam a concentração de certos serviços com a dispersão de outros. Os serviços de menor densidade tecnológica, como os de Atenção Primária à Saúde, devem ser dispersos, enquanto os serviços de maior densidade tecnológica, como hospitais, unidades de processamento de exames de patologia clínica, equipamentos de imagem etc., tendem a ser concentrados. O Objetivo de nosso trabalho consiste em apresentar as RASs como dispositivos potenciais para o cuidado integralizado. Acentuamos que, no Brasil, Os serviços de saúde estruturam-se numa rede de pontos de atenção à saúde, composta por equipamentos de diferentes densidades tecnológicas que devem ser distribuídos, espacialmente, de forma otimizada. Ao longo do trabalho é possível perceber que a organização das RASs, para ser feita de forma efetiva, eficiente e com qualidade, deve estruturar-se com base nos seguintes fundamentos: economia de escala, disponibilidade de recursos, qualidade e acesso; integração horizontal e vertical; processos de substituição; territórios sanitários; e níveis de atenção. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa, em que recorremos à literatura recente para discutir em uma perspectiva de continuum e ampliação dos debates contemporâneos.

Published: June 2023

Abstract : Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional gastrointestinal condition characterised by stomach pain, discomfort, and changes in bowel patterns in absence of organic disorder. Grahani roga is mentioned in classical ayurvedic texts which can be correlated with IBS. The current study seeks to prepare and standardise Kutaj parpati, as well as conduct a pilot study to evaluate its efficacy in Grahani roga (IBS) patients. Assessment of the influence of kutaj parpati on patient-related attributes is challenging because to non-standardized methods of preparation, and this study intends to address this gap. Materials and Methods: The kutaj parpati was prepared in Rasa shashtra and Bhaishajya kalpana department of ayurvedic Medical college.The standardization was done according to ancient ayurvedic parameters. The total loss during preparation of kutaj parpati was 12 grams. The reasons for loss might be ignition leading to oxidiation.The same kutaj parpati was used in Grahani roga (Irritable bowel syndrome) patients who satisfied inclusion criteria. The symptoms of the patients were assessed on a numeric rating scale and the changes in parameters were noted and analysed.

Salah satu cara untuk menunjang keberhasilan guru dalam proses belajar mengajar di kelas yaitu dengan menyediakan alat bantu yang disebut sumber dan media belajar. Sering kali penggunaan sumber dan media belajar tak sesuai dengan materi yang diajarkan sehingga mengakibatkan guru kurang maksimal dalam menyampaikan materi. Kurangnya pengetahuan tentang perkembangan ilmu pengetahuan juga menjadikan guru kesulitan dalam penggunanaan sumber dan media belajar di sekolah. Metode analisis yang digunakan ada tiga tahap yaitu reduksi data, penyajian data, dan verifikasi data. Untuk pemeriksaan keabsahan data, peneliti menggunakan metode Triangulasi, dalam tehnik pengumpulan data. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa guru PAI di MTs Hidayatussubban masih belum dapat menggunakan atau mengoperasikan sumber belajar yang ada disekitar lingkungannya secara tepat, dan penggunaan media yang kurang tepat juga menjadikan siswa kurang berkonsentrasi dalam menerima pelajaran.  .
