The Use of Color Gradation on Program Visualization for Learning Programming
Authors: Nathasya Rossevine Artha , Karnalim Oscar 
Published: November 2020

According to several works, Program Visualization (PV) enhances student understanding further about how a particular program works. However, to our knowledge, no PVs utilize color gradation as a part of their features, even though color plays an important role in visualization. Therefore, two uses of color gradation on PV are proposed on this paper. On the one hand, color gradation can be used to display execution frequency of each instruction; instruction with higher execution frequency will be assigned with more-prominent color. Such piece of information is expected to help student for understanding program complexity. On the other hand, color gradation can also be used to display access frequency of each variable; variable with higher access frequency will be assigned with more-prominent color. Such piece of information is expected to help student for understanding program-to-variable dependency. Both uses are proved to be effective for learning programming according to our evaluation.

The results of cultivation and changes in fish and biological indicators of this year carp when using feed additives NuPro® та Bio-Mos
Authors: Vachko Yu. R. , Barylo Ye. O. , Chmyr K. I. 
Published: November 2020

The intensification and development potential of the aquaculture sector has created challenges in finding alternative sources of protein for use in fish feed diets to develop feeds that provide adequate nutrition for fish growth while reducing the use of traditional protein sources. Therefore, the paper aimed to study the feasibility and effectiveness of feed additives “Bio-Mos” and “NuPro®” when implementing them into the diet of this year's carp (Сyprinus carpio). Researches were carried out in the conditions of the fishery “Rudnyky” of the Mykolaiv district of the Lviv region. The object of the study was this year's carp (Cyprinus carpio L.), which were grown in monoculture with artificial feed. In our research, it was found that the maximum average monthly temperature of the water supply source is set in August – +25.6 °С. The oxygen concentration was in the range of 6.5–7.3 mg/dm3. The highest values of permanganate oxidation were found in August – 12.8 g O2/m3, NO2 content increased slightly in July (0.052 mgN/l) and August (0.071 mgN/l) the number of nitrates increased slightly in August and September at 0.360 mgN/l and 0.281 mgN/l. The concentration of NH4+ was at the level of minimum values – 0.151–0.331 mg N/dm3. The phosphate content (PO4-3) fluctuated slightly in the range of 0.11–0.18 mg P/dm3. As a result of research, it was found that when the drug “NuPro” was included in the diet, the average individual weight of this year's carp was higher during the caught period by 24.3 %, and when using the additive “Bio-Mos” this figure exceeded the control by 28.6 %. Accordingly, the total mass of caught young carp from the second experimental pond exceeded this figure in the first control pond by 45.0 %, and in the third experimental pond, respectively – by 57.4 %. At the same time, “NuPro” та “Bio-Mos” increase the survival of young people from 9.3 % to 16.7 %. Therefore, when using feed additives “NuPro” and “Bio-Mos” in the amount of 2 % by weight of feed has a positive effect on the productivity of this year`s carp (Cyprinus carpio L.), which are grown in the III zone of fish farming.

Published: November 2020

The growth and development of fish depend on the physicochemical properties of water, such as temperature, turbidity, concentration of hydrogen ions (pH), dissolved oxygen, total alkalinity, total hardness, nitrates, nitrites, etc. The article presents data on the hydrochemical regime of growing ponds of the farm “Rudnyky” of Lviv region. Studies have shown that the water quality indicators of growing ponds during the growing season are within the normative values and the water is suitable for fish farming. In the breeding ponds of the Rudnyky fishery, the water quality indicators fluctuated within the following limits, namely: the hydrogen index (pH) was within the maximum permissible concentrations (6.7–8.0). The content of dissolved oxygen in the water during the growing season was within normal limits (6.5 to 7.8 mg/l) and fully met the requirements for carp fish ponds, the alkalinity of the water was average and varied between 2.40 and 3.20 mg-eq/l, permanganate and dichromate oxidation varied slightly – 8.6–15.45 mgO/l and 25.6–40.50 mgO/l, which corresponds to the normative indicators for fish farming. The concentration of ammonium nitrogen (NH4+) in the growing ponds of the farm averaged 0.008–0,520 mg N/l, the content of nitrites and nitrates was 0.002–0.100 mg N/l and 0.060–0,520 mg N/l, respectively. The average concentration ranged from 0.10 mg P/l to 0.40 mg P/l of mineral phosphorus (PO4-3), which did not exceed the normative values. The amount of total iron in the water of the pond did not have high values, averaged 0.10–0.38 mg Fe/l, which was within the maximum allowable concentrations. The values of total hardness of water were determined as moderately hard and were in the range of 2.9–5.0 mg-eq/l. The salt composition of pond water was characterized by total mineralization, the ratio of ions and the content of chlorides, sulfates, bicarbonates. During the study period, the content of chlorides (Cl-) sulfates (SO4 2-); hydrocarbons (HCO3-), did not exceed the maximum allowable concentration. Among the cations in the pond water, calcium ions (Ca2+ ) predominated, their content averaged 28.2–80 mg Ca/l. In the studied pond, the concentration of magnesium (Mg2+) reached average values – 6.8–20.0 mg/l. The total mineralization of water was 300.4–440.4 mg/l. By the nature of the ionic composition, the water of the growing ponds belongs to the hydrocarbonate composition of the calcium group.

Abstract: Pituitary adenomas are the most common type and benign tumours arising from hormone expressing cells in the anterior pituitary gland. They account for 10% to 15% of all intracranial masses. Pituitary adenomas present clinically in three ways: syndromes of hormone hypersecretion or deficiency; neurologic manifestations from mass effect of an expanding gland; or an incidental finding on imaging done for an unrelated issue. A 49-years old man, was reffered to the hospital with symptoms of chronic headache and blurred vision. General physical examination revealed no abnormalities. History of previous illness and medication were unremarkable. MRI brain showed hyperintense lesion in suprasellar/selllar area. Hormone assay reciprocally revealed hypocortisolism and hyperprolactinemia.

Spontaneous Nasal Polypectomy Proceeded by Fluticasone Propionate (XHANCE®) and Zileuton (Xyflo®) Application
Authors: Rowane Marija , Graven Kelsey , Hostoffer Robert 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
Background: Nasal polyps (NPs) are inflammatory outgrowths of paranasal sinus mucosa that occur in one to four percent of the population and most commonly cause congestion, obstruction, or hyposmia. Intranasal corticosteroids, along with short courses of oral corticosteroids, are most often recommended for symptomatic nasal polyposis, prior to consideration of surgical intervention. We present the first reported case of spontaneous nasal polypectomy, occurring after use of fluticasone propionate (XHANCE®) and zileuton (Xyflo®).
Methods: A 43-year-old Asian-Indian male with history of allergic rhinitis, asthma, and nasal polyposis had been prescribed subcutaneous immunotherapy for five years without effectiveness before another polypectomy was scheduled. After the polyps resurfaced, the patient was prescribed prednisone and underwent another polypectomy. He later presented with persistent NPs and congestion, as well as diffuse lymphadenopathy and pruritic eyes and ears. Fluticasone Propionate was continued as maintenance therapy and Zileuton was prescribed in place of Montelukast (Singulair®).
Results: After several weeks of the new treatment regimen, the patient reported polyp irritation and movement, as well as influenza-like symptoms. Epistaxis soon occurred, followed by a spontaneous polypectomy. Three more polyps were expelled with bloody discharge. The patient reported resolved hyposmia and reduced symptoms thereafter. The treatment regimen was continued without change or further episodes of epistaxis and polypectomy.
Conclusion: Few case reports in the literature describe polyp autoamputation. We report the first instance of spontaneous nasal polypectomy in the literature, induced by Fluticasone Propionate and Zileuton.

Authors: Burns Bethany , Dollinger Beth 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
Background: To describe the development and implementation of a pilot pediatric nutrition curriculum created by medical students for underserved communities.
Methods: Medical students designed an interactive cooking and nutrition curriculum for children to address local community needs. Children participated in the four-module pilot program offered over the summer. Participants completed pretest and posttest surveys before and after the four-week curriculum. A post curriculum implementation survey was filled out by parents to assess long-term effectiveness of the program.
Results: The course was divided into four themed nutrition classes that represented major staples of the diet. Within each themed class existed supporting objectives involving kitchen safety, serving sizes, nutrition labels, etc. The pretest group (n=44) scored an average of 59% (n= 3.55/6) on six nutrition knowledge questions. The posttest group (n=21) scored an average of 68% (n = 4.1/6). Post implementation survey response rate was 16% (n = 7/44) with 100% (n = 7/7) of respondents reporting that they would definitely recommend the program. Using a ranking scale (1–5), parents strongly agreed (4.6–5.0) that their children exhibited more confidence in the kitchen (5.0), developed more interest in preparing meals and snacks (4.7), demonstrated greater awareness of kitchen safety (4.7) and displayed more knowledge about nutrition (4.6) after participating in the nutrition program.
Conclusion: After piloting the program for two seasons, surveys identified baseline participant characteristics, nutrition knowledge, expected retention rates and longitudinal behavior changes. Further optimization of surveys is needed to better assess the efficacy of the program.

Published: November 2020

English language has always been a challenging subject for some students in Malaysia (Normazidah Che Musa, Lie & Hazita Azman, 2012). Despite the fact that these students have learned English for almost ten years in school, they are still facing problems to learn it mostly due to language anxiety (Nur Afiqah Ab. Latif, 2015). This study was conducted to identify the effectiveness of peer-tutoring approach as one way to lower the students’ anxiety level as well as to boost their motivation in learning English language. This study was conducted in a public university in Malaysia where seventeen pre-diploma students were selected to join a ‘Mentor-mentee’ programme as the mentees while five diploma (semester three) students were chosen to be the mentors. The mentors were asked to coach the pre-diploma students in learning English language by using four interesting and interactive English games namely ‘Truth or Dare’, ‘Roll the Dice, ‘Spot the Error’ and ‘Once upon a Time’. The researchers used a google form to get responses from the participants and the results show that the peer-tutoring programme has appeared to create a more relaxed and friendly environment for the students to learn English, thus boost their motivation in learning English.

Published: November 2020

Sejarah telah membuktikan bahawa bahasa Melayu pernah muncul sebagai lingua franca ratusan tahun yang lalu sekali gus merupakan refleksi kepada kehebatan dan ketinggian darjat bahasa tersebut. Lingua franca merujuk kepada bahasa perantara atau bahasa perhubungan antara masyarakat dengan golongan yang berlainan bahasa. Hal ini bermaksud bahasa Melayu merupakan bahasa pergaulan yang mudah dipelajari dan difahami oleh sesiapa sahaja. Lantaran itu, bahasa tersebut berupaya bertindak sebagai jambatan ke arah pengharmonian dan perpaduan dalam kalangan para penuturnya kerana keserasian serta kesefahaman mereka melalui satu bahasa pertuturan yang sama. Kehebatan bahasa Melayu juga turut terserlah apabila perjanjian- perjanjian penting antara pihak penjajah dengan Raja-raja Melayu turut dibuat dalan bahasa Melayu bertulisan jawi seperti Perjanjian Pangkor 1874. Malah ketika zaman penjajahan, bahasa Melayu tidak pernah dihapuskan oleh penjajah. Seterusnya status bahasa Melayu telah diangkat sebagai salah satu daripada elemen-elemen tradisi dalam Perlembagaan Persekutuan. Situasi ini memaparkan bahasa Melayu merupakan sumber jati diri yang kukuh serta berupaya membentuk semangat patriotisme setiap penuturnya yang bergelar rakyat Malaysia. Namun realiti yang berlaku agak berbeza apabila terdapat sebilangan warganegara yang fasih berbahasa Melayu telah memaparkan sikap tidak patriotik mereka secara terang-terangan, terutamanya melalui media sosial. Justeru, kajian ini dilakukan secara kuantitatif untuk meneliti pendirian generasi muda di negara ini terhadap keupayaan bahasa Melayu sebagai wadah semangat patriotisme. Responden kajian ini terdiri daripada 400 mahasiswa Universiti Putra Malaysia dan 400 mahasiswa Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris. Hasil kajian memaparkan majoriti responden berpendirian bahawa bahasa Melayu sememangnya berupaya bertindak sebagai wadah patriotisme.
Pieniężne instrumenty polityki rodzinnej a dzietność i aktywność zawodowa kobiet
Authors: Zajkowska Olga 
Published: November 2020

Dzietność poniżej prostej zastępowalności pokoleń występująca w krajach rozwiniętych, a zwłaszcza niska dzietność utrzymująca się w wielu z nich, stanowi ważną przesłankę dyskusji o rozwiązaniach polityki rodzinnej wspierających wzrost dzietności. Jednym z narzędzi polityki rodzinnej są zasiłki na dzieci. Artykuł podejmuje próbę przeglądu skuteczności różnych form świadczeń pieniężnych na dzieci zarówno w odniesieniu do dzietności jak i pracy zawodowej kobiet. Zwrócono też uwagę na inne efekty, w tym związane z dobrostanem dzieci. Wyniki prowadzą do wniosku, zgodnego z ustaleniami innych analiz porównawczych, że wpływ na dzietność tych świadczeń jest zależny od kontekstu instytucjonalnego, w jakim są wdrażane. Zwraca też uwagę na konieczność rozpatrywania zasiłków wraz z innymi instrumentami polityki rodzinnej.

Published: November 2020

Para conter o contágio pela pandemia do Covid-19 uma das primeiras medidas de distanciamento social foi a suspensão das aulas presenciais. A alternativa que se tornou viável na atual conjuntura foi o ensino remoto. Este trabalho visa traçar um panorama de como os professores do Atendimento Educacional Especializado (AEE) da rede municipal de ensino de Uruguaiana/RS vem desenvolvendo esse serviço no Ensino Remoto. Com esse intuito foi desenvolvido um questionário aplicado a 09 professores de AEE do município. A análise qualitativa do questionário foi realizada a partir de 7 categorias que compreendem: a formação acadêmica do profissional, formação continuada, compreensão sobre o ensino remoto, diversidade de necessidades especiais atendidas, número de atendidos, recursos empregados na mediação remota e a efetividade do serviço de atendimento na promoção da aprendizagem através do ensino remoto. Como resultados obtemos que os professores pesquisados possuem formação adequada, bem como tem realizado inúmeros cursos de capacitação via ensino à distância. Segundo os professores existem entre 11 e 24 alunos em cada escola necessitando de atendimento com as mais variadas deficiências. As atividades do AEE vêm sendo realizadas remotamente através de recursos de tecnologias digitais/impressa e o auxílio dos familiares dos estudantes. A efetividade desse atendimento, depende de diferentes fatores como: o tipo de necessidade especial, a capacidade de interação do aluno com as mídias digitais/impressas e o comprometimento familiar. A educação inclusiva no ensino remoto vem ocorrendo de forma parcial principalmente porque é difícil incluir junto ao ambiente escolar de uma forma remota.

O presente estudo buscou realizar um diagnóstico situacional da dinâmica de atendimento e cuidado dos profissionais de saúde que tratam de pacientes onco-hematológicos em um hospital público do Estado do Rio de Janeiro. Foi realizado um estudo de caso único sob a perspectiva teórica Bioecologia do Desenvolvimento Humano. Os dados foram coletados e organizados a partir de estratégias metodológicas fundamentadas na inserção ecológica realizada durante 70 horas de observações naturalísticas e registros em diário de campo. Participaram 23 profissionais de saúde da área da hematologia. Os dados foram analisados seguindo os princípios da grounded-theory. Os resultados revelaram eixos que demonstraram os seguintes aspectos de influência: pessoais - a subjetividade das ações da equipe; contextuais - aspectos protocolares técnicos/burocráticos e protocolares humanizados; e, relacionais - formas de comunicação, processos proximais e práticas profissionais dos participantes. Destaca-se a relevância da inserção ecológica como estratégia reveladora de categorias de análise que permitem a compreensão de elementos que explicam a dinâmica do envolvimento dos profissionais de saúde com pacientes da onco-hematologia. Ressalta-se a diferença entre atendimento e cuidado, sendo o primeiro aspecto mais objetivo e voltado para os elementos técnicos, burocráticos e protocolares e o segundo voltado para o âmbito subjetivo de elementos emocionais e relativos à resiliência em profissionais da saúde: solidariedade, humor, afeto, reciprocidade e empatia.
