Éduquer en anthropocène à l’université, une perspective norvégienne
Authors: Brossard Børhaug Frédérique 
Published: January 2021

Depuis 2016, le domaine universitaire en Norvège a pour objectif de transformer sensiblement son offre éducative en anthropocène. Plus particulièrement, les objectifs de ce partenariat inter-universitaire sont de transformer, en lien avec les ODD, les programmes et l’enseignement dispensé, d’axer la recherche sur ce nouveau thème et de sensibiliser les universités à leur responsabilité éthique et professionnelle. Ce travail a donné lieu à un rapport préliminaire en 2020 (SDG – Quality in higher education : Developing a platform for sharing of ideas and practices within the universities), dans lequel sont présentés les objectifs ainsi que les pratiques éducatives développés par sept universités et collèges universitaires. Mais la Norvège fait face à un profond paradoxe, celui d’être à la fois un pays producteur et exportateur d’hydrocarbures et de s’afficher en leader de la cause climatique sur la scène nationale et internationale. Cette polyphonie de prises de position doit amener à nous interroger sur l’offre éducative dispensée à l’université.
Du constat à l’action : quels enjeux recouvre la formation du monde professionnel aux transitions ?
Authors: Garda Jacques-Olivier 
Published: January 2021

Réussir une transition, c’est « facile » : il suffit de déterminer le point d’arrivée, d’identifier les écarts avec l’existant et de les combler au travers de démarches adaptées, notamment la formation. Une conduite classique du changement semble tout à fait convenir. Cependant, Albert Einstein nous rappelle que l’« on ne peut pas résoudre un problème avec le même mode de pensée que celui qui a généré le problème ». Autrement formulé, la profondeur de l’analyse et du constat peut révéler la nécessité de changements bien plus profonds que ce qui était initialement imaginé. C’est à cet exercice que nous invite le présent article : remettre en perspective les enjeux d’un monde vivable et désirable, et les conséquences pratiques qui en découlent pour la formation des personnes en activité professionnelle et en situation de responsabilité.
Monitoring the Adherence to an Adapted Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guideline on Antiemetics in 669 Patients with Cancer Receiving 1451 Chemotherapy Doses at a University Oncology Center in Saudi Arabia
Authors: Al-Salloum Haya Fahad , Amer Yasser Sami , Alsaleh Khalid Abdulrahman 
Published: January 2021

Objectives:
Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) is a common medication safety issue among cancer patients worldwide. However, there remains a research gap on adherence to the clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) for antiemetic medications to prevent and treat CINV in Saudi Arabia. Further, the adherence to our center's CPG for antiemetics for CINV at our center was never quantified before. Therefore, this audit was designed as an implementation and quality improvement intervention to fill the knowledge gaps.

Methods:
We conducted a retrospective cross-sectional observational study of the adult cancer patients attending the University Oncology Center at King Saud University Medical City. Data were extracted from the electronic health records' database for patients receiving chemotherapy in the months of February and November 2017.

Results:
Among the 669 adult cancer patients who received 1451 chemotherapy doses at our center, nearly 48% of the antiemetic prescriptions adhered to our adopted CPG's recommendations. The adherence of prescribers was more likely to moderate emetogenic agents such as doxorubicin and ifosfamide as compared to the high emetogenic agents such as cisplatin and cyclophosphamide >1500 mg/m2.

Conclusions:
Adherence to the antiemetics for CINV-CPG was suboptimal due to the unavailability of neurokinin1-receptor antagonists (NK1) antagonists and the lack of knowledge by prescribers. NK1 antagonists should be available to maximize the level of cancer care. Regular physician's education and training sessions must be conducted to familiarize them with the CPG evidence-based recommendations.
Fibonacci's Mathematical Sequence Predicts Functional and Actual Lengths of the Phalanges of the Hand
Authors: Miller Andrew S. , Gwyn Rhodri , Bhattacharjee Dhritiman , Banks Louisa N. 
Published: January 2021

Background:
Fibonacci described a mathematical sequence starting 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8… where each sub sequential number is the sum of the two preceding numbers. The golden ratio (Phi, Φ = 1.618) is the ratio of two consecutive numbers in the sequence. Here, we investigate whether there is a relationship between these mathematical sequences or ratios and functional or actual lengths of the digits.

Methods:
Two hundred radiographs of the hand were reviewed by three independent reviewers (interobserver correlation r >0.98), and the actual and functional phalangeal lengths were measured.

Results:
Both the functional and actual lengths of the phalanges of the little finger followed Fibonacci's sequence. The index, middle, and ring fingers followed a mathematical sequence related to the Fibonacci's sequence. We were not able to demonstrate any direct relationship between phalangeal length and the golden ration (Φ). The sum of lengths of the distal and middle phalanx equals the length of the proximal phalanx with great accuracy.

Conclusions:
This is useful in many surgical situations (congenital deformities, polytrauma to the hands, and arthroplasty).
A Comparative Study of Thiel Soft-embalmed and Formalin Preserved Cadavers for Anatomy Dissection
Authors: Villacorta Pio Renato F. , Hernando Harivelle Charmaine T. , Abdulla Abdel Jeffri A. , Barroa Jupiter Kelly H. 
Published: January 2021

Background and Objective. Cadavers are the main teaching and learning tools utilized by faculty and students of Gross Anatomy. The conventional procedure of using formalin to preserve cadavers has its limited benefit due to its obnoxious odor, darkened color, indistinguishable small structures, rigid joints, with friable organs and tissues. Using the Thiel Method, cadavers are known to have: life-like presentation, a high degree of suppleness, natural mobilization of various body parts with tolerable odor, natural color, and antimicrobial and antifungal efficacy. The aim of this study was to compare the Thiel soft-embalmed cadaver and the formalin-preserved cadaver for use in Gross Anatomy dissection.
Materials and Method. Six formalin-preserved cadavers were compared with six Thiel soft-embalmed ones and were evaluated by 160 first year medical students and 10 faculty members of Gross Anatomy from the University of the Philippines College of Medicine using a visual analogue scale that evaluated the cadaver’s presenting color. A Likert scale was utilized to assess the skin and muscle texture, blood vessel integrity, odor, joint flexibility, and state of cadaver preservation. Their perceptions on the ease of the dissection process, distensibility, and differentiation of structures were also elicited through a questionnaire checklist.
Results. Results show that the Thiel Method-preserved cadavers were rated higher compared to the formalinpreserved cadavers in terms of: 1) presenting color; 2) tolerable odor; 3) skin and muscle texture; 4) blood vessel integrity; 5) joint flexibility; and 6) state of cadaver preservation after 1 year. However, the ease of the dissection process, the distensibility of structures, and the differentiation of the various structures were easily managed in the formalin-preserved cadavers while the feasibility of practicing laparoscopy, endoscopy, and intubation were seen in the Thiel soft-embalmed cadavers. Results validate the claims of previous studies on the advantages presented in using the Thiel Method.
Conclusion. Cadavers preserved utilizing the Thiel Method are life-like and can be used for Gross Anatomy dissection. The data gathered support the feasibility of using them also in research and training.
Androgenetic Alopecia and its Association with Metabolic Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Authors: Caro-Chang Leah Antoinette M. , Gervasio Mia Katrina R. , Yap-Silva Claudine 
Published: January 2021

Objectives. The study aimed to confirm the association between androgenetic alopecia (AGA) and Metabolic Syndrome (MetS). It also aimed to determine if early-onset AGA among males and AGA among females increases the risk of developing MetS, and if severity of AGA increases the odds of developing MetS.
Methods. Observational studies from electronic databases were selected by the consensus of three independent review authors. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale for assessing the quality of non-randomized studies in meta-analysis was used. Statistical analyses were accomplished using Review Manager software.
Results. A total of 11 case-control studies, one prospective cohort study, and five cross-sectional studies were selected. In the meta-analysis of ten case-control studies and three cross-sectional studies (3840 participants), AGA was significantly correlated with MetS (OR 2.59, 95% CI 1.51 to 4.44; p<0.0005). Early-onset AGA among males (<35 years old) showed significant association (OR 3.69, 95% CI 2.15 to 6.33; p<0.00001). AGA among females also increased the odds of developing MetS (OR 5.59, 95% CI 2.06 to 15.12; p<0.0007). Moderate to severe AGA in males, Norwood-Hamilton IV or higher, was also significant (OR 1.65, 95% CI 1.12 to 2.42; p=0.01). The same trend was noted for females with Ludwig II and III (OR 5.82, 95% CI 2.54 to 13.34; p<0.00001).
Conclusion. Although the pathophysiology still remains under investigation, the present study points to an association between AGA and MetS. It can be used as a marker to identify patients who should be screened for MetS and managed accordingly.

Authors: Dorotan Miguel Manuel C. , Estanislao Rafael Deo F. , Sales Reneepearl Kim P. , Magdaraog Maria Angeli C. , Geroy Lester Sam A. 
Published: January 2021

Introduction. The National Unified Health Research Agenda is a major document whose creation by the Philippine National Health Research Systems is mandated by Philippine Law. Multiple frameworks, methods, and approaches for the development of a health research agenda exists. Available literature on research priority setting have mostly focused on its methods, results, or implementation. There are limited studies on the operations management of conducting a national health research priority-setting exercise.
Objectives. This paper aims to describe the operational components utilized to develop the NUHRA 2017-2022 and provide lessons learned for future research priority setting endeavors. Methods. This paper identified and categorized the operational components to develop the NUHRA 2017-2022 using the Enabler Criterion of the European Foundation for Quality Management’s (EFQM) Excellence Model.
Results. Operationalizing the development of a national health research agenda requires the harmonization of multiple components. Having region-based staff involved in the production of a regional situational analysis improved its context and accuracy. The workload for each cluster team must be considered and anticipated by the management. Stakeholder engagement requires political, diplomatic, advocacy, marketing, management, and technical skills. The process requires building relationships with various institutions. In a largescale project, management processes must be in place to effectively track and monitor its progress.
Conclusion. Operations and management are usually a neglected area in research and development projects. In a bottoms-up research priority-setting approach, iteration and flexibility is needed which requires a lot of management skills and insight. Duration of the project, planning, resources available, and quality of outputs have a strong interconnected relationship.
Strengthening Science and Technology for Health Research: Perspectives from Trade, Development, and Innovation
Authors: De Leon Paul Ernest N. , Sales Reneepearl Kim P. , Geroy Lester Sam A. , Lopez Jaifred Christian F. 
Published: January 2021

Background. It has long been observed globally that the extent to which developing countries can achieve health targets depends on their capacity to generate, harness, and apply science and technology (S&T). Beyond the health sector, S&T contributes to development by providing a solid foundation for education, infrastructure, and economic progress. The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) suggests a set of fundamental elements for an ideal S&T environment: knowledge generators, producers, infrastructures, and the policy instruments.
Objectives and Methods. Through document and secondary data review guided by the UNCTAD fundamental elements, this paper aimed to 1) provide an overview of the S&T policies in the country, 2) assess the country’s S&T status, 3) identify gaps and challenges, and 4) provide recommendations to strengthen the S&T environment in the country.
Results. The country’s set of policies in S&T has succeeded in attracting businesses, nurturing good governance, and applying necessary regulatory mechanisms that offers protection and incentives to innovation. While performance in Education & Research has improved, spending on research, patent applications, and journal publications lags regionally and globally. The country’s university-industry collaboration has been in decline since 2015. Between 2013 to 2015, innovations strongly enabled changes in business and organizational models. Data show that the country has been devoting increasing percentage of its GDP to Gross Capital Formation. Conversely, logistics performance has been decreasing. The country’s score for information and communication technology has been increasing since 2013. Since 2014, the density of newly registered business has remained stagnant.
Conclusion. Policies implemented through the years in the Philippines have managed to balance strengthening infrastructure capacity while increasing translation and uptake of new knowledge and technologies by enterprises. The country’s S&T performance has remained largely stagnant despite the availability of human capital. The Philippines has devoted low funding to research and development, indicating the low priority that it has for S&T. This is manifested in the low research output of the country, in the form of patents and publications, that lags both regionally and globally. The availability of quality infrastructure is a requirement for efficient work of researchers and facilitates adaption of new technologies by enterprises. However, these developments must be coupled with good logistical processes to meet the demands of researchers and the industry.

Authors: Lopez Jaifred Christian F. , De Veyra Chiqui M. , Geroy Lester Sam A. , Sales Reneepearl Kim P. , Dizon Teddy S. , Cutiongco-de la Paz Eva Maria 
Published: January 2021

Background and Objective. This paper aims to describe long-term visions for health research in the Philippines. Ambisyon Natin 2040, an overarching vision for a dynamic country by the year 2040, is its main inspiration as this enables innovation and sustainable development.
Methods. The health research profile conceptual framework developed by Tugwell et al., (2006) was utilized to structure the articulation of these visions. Review of related literature, reports, and documents and in-depth interviews with key players in health research were conducted.
Results. In view of economic and technological developments in the country, it is expected that in 2040, health research priorities shall be more trans-disciplinary and more advanced. Research on health regulation and ethics will continue to be of importance. A more enabling environment for health research is also envisioned, since majority of research funding is expected to come from government, in addition to more research-friendly laws. More innovative platforms will be utilized to disseminate research results. The increasing international exposure and impact of academic work in the Philippines is also envisaged.
Conclusion and Recommendations. Health research in the Philippines has been benefitted by a lot of gains and advances in the past years. Thus, to create an enabling health research system in the Philippines by 2040, focusing on innovations in health research, increased number of funding sources, and crafting of better policies on health research should be pursued. Sustaining these gains and advancing health research in our country entail collective effort from different stakeholders, both public and private.

Authors: Condeza Lovella C. , Arguelles Christopher B. , Velez Cris F. , Labadan Glenda M. , Baja Emmanuel S. , Vergeire-Dalmacion Godofreda 
Published: January 2021

Background. The roll-over test is a simple, easily available clinical test using the sphygmomanometer to predict pregnancy-induced hypertension starting at 20 weeks age of gestation (AOG). However, the roll-over test is not part of the standard prenatal care in government health facilities even if health workers can easily perform the test.
Objectives. To validate the roll-over test at the 20th weeks of gestation and to determine the risk factors for preeclampsia in 4 health districts of Surigao City, a province in the CARAGA Region of the Philippines.
Methods. A total of 190 pregnant women without history of hypertension during their previous pregnancies from 4 health districts in Surigao City, Philippines were consecutively enrolled from May 2014 to October 2014 in a cross-sectional study design. The roll-over test was done using the method described in Williams Obstetrics and the validity of the roll-over test was measured. Bivariate and multivariate analyses were done to determine risk factors for preeclampsia.
Results. Seven of the 190 women developed preeclampsia. The sensitivity of the rollover test done at 20 weeks AOG was 43% and the specificity was 81%. Maternal age, history of urinary tract infection (UTI) and a positive rollover test were associated with preeclampsia.
Conclusion. Pregnant women whose ages are <20 years or >29 years old, or who had a history of UTI, or a positive roll-over test are more likely to develop preeclampsia. Roll-over test has a low sensitivity at 20 weeks AOG. More studies are warranted to explore the improvement of its predictive value in other AOG.

Authors: Berniyanti Titiek , Setijanto R. Darmawan , Hariani Ninuk , Romadhoni Sarah Fitria 
Published: January 2021

Background. In 2017, there were sixty people who identified themselves as lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender/ transsexual (LGBT) people in Sememi Public Health Center, and seven of them were known to be people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). People who are at high risk for HIV infection, especially the LGBT people and Female Sex Workers, are at even greater risk of developing a number of severe periodontal diseases. Periodontal problems, such as periodontitis, in HIV patients, are more severe and occur more frequently than uninfected patients. However, data on dental visit in Sememi Public Health Center as the primary health center in Sememi district is still limited, and there is still no data regarding periodontal health status among HIV patients.
Objective. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between HIV/AIDS and periodontal health status among the population who are at high risk of HIV/AIDS in Sememi Public Health Center area.
Method. This study was conducted with a cross-sectional design. The sample size was determined using a total sampling technique and came up with 30 participants.
Conclusion. Population with a high risk of HIV/AIDS in Sememi Health Center area in Surabaya City has poor periodontal status, due to a large number of bleeding on probing (BOP), periodontal pocket depth, and loss of attachment (LOA). There is no significant difference between BOP results and pocket depth between the HIV and non-HIV groups. But a significant difference was found between LOA in the HIV and non-HIV groups. On the contrary, we found that there is no significant relationship between HIV/AIDS and xerostomia in this study.

Data kependudukan merupakan suatu hal yang harus dikelola baik oleh pemerintah untuk diolah sampai pada berbagai keperluan, baik daerah maupun pusat. Keberadaan datanya pun dituntut untuk selalu up to date (saat ini). Pengelolaan data penduduk di desa juli uruek anoe kecamatan juli kabupaten Bireuen masih diolah secara manual oleh pemerintah struktural desa, misalnya data penduduk atau data perpindahan penduduk yang dikelola oleh sekretaris desa, sementara data kelahiran dikelola oleh bidan desa kemudian dikirim kepada pengelola data penduduk di desa. Dengan konsep database terdistribusi dapat dibangun sebuah sistem yang langsung dikelola oleh bidan desa ketika ada penduduk yang melahirkan untuk disimpan atau diinput kedalam sistem. Gambar sistem menjelaskan aliran data secara umum, yaitu terdapat 4 entitas pada aplikasi yang di rancang, di antaranya admin sistem untuk menginput dan mengelola user pengguna aplikasi, kemudian operator kecamatan dan operator kabupaten dapat melihat data laporan, kemudian pengguna sekretaris desa untuk menginput data kartu keluarga, data penduduk, data kematian, data pindahan, data kedatangan
