Authors: Luo Gang , Stone Bryan L , Sheng Xiaoming , He Shan , Koebnick Corinna , Nkoy Flory L 
Published: May 2021

Background
Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) impose a heavy burden on health care. Approximately one-fourth of patients with asthma and patients with COPD are prone to exacerbations, which can be greatly reduced by preventive care via integrated disease management that has a limited service capacity. To do this well, a predictive model for proneness to exacerbation is required, but no such model exists. It would be suboptimal to build such models using the current model building approach for asthma and COPD, which has 2 gaps due to rarely factoring in temporal features showing early health changes and general directions. First, existing models for other asthma and COPD outcomes rarely use more advanced temporal features, such as the slope of the number of days to albuterol refill, and are inaccurate. Second, existing models seldom show the reason a patient is deemed high risk and the potential interventions to reduce the risk, making already occupied clinicians expend more time on chart review and overlook suitable interventions. Regular automatic explanation methods cannot deal with temporal data and address this issue well.

Objective
To enable more patients with asthma and patients with COPD to obtain suitable and timely care to avoid exacerbations, we aim to implement comprehensible computational methods to accurately predict proneness to exacerbation and recommend customized interventions.

Methods
We will use temporal features to accurately predict proneness to exacerbation, automatically find modifiable temporal risk factors for every high-risk patient, and assess the impact of actionable warnings on clinicians’ decisions to use integrated disease management to prevent proneness to exacerbation.

Results
We have obtained most of the clinical and administrative data of patients with asthma from 3 prominent American health care systems. We are retrieving other clinical and administrative data, mostly of patients with COPD, needed for the study. We intend to complete the study in 6 years.

Conclusions
Our results will help make asthma and COPD care more proactive, effective, and efficient, improving outcomes and saving resources.

PREVALENCE, PRACTICE, PERCEPTION OF SELF-MEDICATION PATTERN AMONG MEDICAL STUDENTS
Authors: GOEL DIVYA 
Published: May 2021

Objective: The use of drugs (prescription as well as non-prescription by the individual for treating self-diagnosed conditions/symptoms is a practice prevalent all around the world, though the extent, the reason may vary. The practice of self-medication is increasingly becoming a part of self-care. If practiced properly and with the authentic knowledge of drugs, it can save resources such as time and money. However, its improper use may lead to various health problems like adverse drug reactions, prolonged suffering, and drug-dependence and increase resistance among various pathogens. It has many implications, especially among medical students who have some knowledge and exposure to drugs and can present a serious threat to professionalism in medicine and it has the potential to put at risk public trust into this profession. The aim of this research was to assess the knowledge, attitude and practice of self-medication among medical students.
Methods: Research was performed as a cross-sectional study and it included 150, 2nd year (4th semester) students of a medical college. Students filled out a questionnaire created for the purpose of this research and consisted of both open-ended and close-ended questions about demographic and self-medication Consenting students anonymously filled the questionnaire. Questions about self-medication were related to the period of the previous three months.
Results: Out of 150 filled questionnaires, data of 126 were analysed as twenty-four Questionnaires were incomplete. 90.47%% medical students were found to practice self-medication. Symptoms for which they took the drugs for self-medication were fever (49.68%) followed by headache, common cold/cough and pain abdomen. Drugs taken by them for self-medication were Paracetamol (85.79%), antibiotics (77.54%), analgesics, Antihistaminic and cough suppressants. Ease (43.65%) was cited as the main reason for self-medication by the respondents. Most common source of drug information was their experience in the past illness (54.03%) Of the respondents 90.48% knew about adverse drug reactions and 93.65% knew about drug-drug interactions.
Conclusion: This study shows that the practice of self-medication is rampant among medical students of the institute. In this situation, awareness should be created toward appropriate antibiotic usage and the practice of responsible self-medication needs to be promoted among future healthcare providers. Furthermore, stringent implementation of laws governing the sale of prescription medicines can help in limiting the self-medication practice.

Agung Wahyudi Biantoro Mechanical Engineering Department, Universitas Mercu Buana, Jakarta. Jl. Meruya Selatan No. 1, Jakarta Barat. Email : agung_wahyudi@mercubuana.ac.idPresent the need for efficient transportation is very important for modern human life. Various types of studies continue to be carried out to support the implementation of the use of Gas Fuel (CNG), to reduce dependence on fossil fuels. The use of BBG is considered more efficient and environmentally friendly than using fuel oil (BBM). However, thus, the use of CNG can hurt a negative impact on human safety and even cause considerable losses if it is not used carefully, especially if there is no known leakage from the tube and cause a fire to the vehicle. CNG gas that has a leak does smell so normal leakage is easily detected. However, if the leaky gas seeps into the engine, and the bottom of the bus or under the carpet, it will be difficult to detect. CNG gas is famous for its flammability so that the leakage of CNG equipment is at high risk of fire. Based on this description, the need for an early gas leak detection device using a microcontroller can monitor the presence of gas leaks in vehicles that can be observed directly through the LED screen in the form of a warning that can be placed on the cabin dashboard. From the above problems, the authors are interested in making a study by creating an innovation tool called GLEDS (Gas Leakage Early Detection System) in Microcontroller-Based Motorized Vehicles. The purpose of this study was to determine the condition of the design of the gas cylinder position in motorized vehicles and design the manufacture and GLEDS tool to detect gas leaks in motorized vehicles. Based on the whole system starting from the design and manufacture of GLEDS tools The conclusion is that the GLEDS gas leak detector can work well, this is indicated by the functioning of the tool when given butane gas. The buzzer sounds, the green LED lights up and displays graphical data on Android. Next, the sensor will detect a leak in the gas cylinder, if near the gas cylinder regulator there is really a butane gas content at a concentration of 280 ppm which then increases to 400 ppm. At a concentration of 300 ppm, the tool works well, with active buzzer alarms and LED lights. This GLEDS tool can be placed in the trunk of a car, close to gas cylinders of LNG four-wheeled motorized vehicles. Keywords: Gas Leak Detection, GLEDS, Arduino Uno, Microcontroller
Pengaruh Beban Lentur Pada Poros Stainless Steel Terhadap Siklus Kegagalan Fatik
Authors: Fitri Muhamad 
Published: May 2021

Salah satu penyebab dari kerusakan pada komponen mesin adalah disebabkan oleh kelelahan, yaitu kegagalan pada material akibat beban/ tegangan berulang – ulang (Cylic stress) meskipun besarnya tegangan tersebut masih di bawah batas kekuatan elastiknya. Karenanya, kelelahan, khususnya pada komponen mesin merupakan sifat yang sangat penting untuk dikaji dan diteliti. Salah satu komponen mesin yang mengalami beban berulang-ulang adalah poros. Akibat beban-beban yang bekerja pada poros meskipun jauh di bawah tegangan luluhnya, poros dapat mengalami kelelahan. Karenanya sebuah poros perlu diuji sifat lelahnya untuk memperkirakan umur poros tersebut saat digunakan nantinya. Pada poros yang berputar ada yang mengalami beben lentur ada yang tidak. Adanya beban lentur pada poros kemungkinan akan menambah pendek umur siklus lelah dari poros. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah: Menguji Bagaimana pengaruh beban lentur terhadap umur siklus fatik dari poros Stainless steel SUS 304 untuk kemudian mendapatkan hubungan antara momen lentur yang diberikan dengan umur siklus dalam bentuk persamaan matematis. Pengujian dilakukan untuk 7 macam variasi beban, mulai dari beban 1kg, 1,5kg, 2kg, 2,5kg, 3kg, 3,5kg dan 4 kg, yang mana beban yang diberikan tersebut akan dirasakan sebagai beban lentur oleh poros. Hasil pengujian ini membuktikan bahwa besarnya beban lentur yang dialami oleh suatu poros stainless steel berpengaruh terhadap umur kegagalan fatik poros tersebut, yang mana, semakin tinggi beban yang diberikan maka umurya semakin pendek. Pengujian spesimen dengan diberi beban terendah sebesar 1 kg yang menghasilkan momen lentur sebesar 0,882 N.m dan tegangan geser sebesar 41,6 Nm, poros dapat beroperasi hingga 32820 siklus. Beban maksimum sebesar 4 kg menghasilkan momen lentur sebesar 3528 Nm, dan tegangan geser sebesar 166,45 N/m² dan kegagalan poros terjadi pada siklus 3702.
Hospital Lobbying and Performance

Published: May 2021

ABSTRACT
Lobbying is a primary avenue through which business organizations attempt to influence legislation, regulations, or policies. In this study, we examine the association between lobbying and hospital performance and find that the effects of lobbying activities on hospital performance vary according to the distinct types of hospital ownership. Specifically, we find that lobbying raises employee salaries in not-for-profit (NFP) hospitals, reduces uncompensated care costs in both for-profit and NFP hospitals, and increases return on assets (ROA) in for-profit hospitals. We also find that the effects of lobbying on employee salaries, uncompensated care costs, and ROA are not significant in government hospitals. Taken together, our findings suggest that NFP hospitals lobby to protect employees' interests, while for-profit hospitals lobby to maximize investors' interests. Our paper provides evidence to illustrate that the goals and effects of hospital lobbying vary according to hospital ownership types.

Presented clinical case is a rare case of poorly differentiated squamous cell non-keratinizing cancer of the right lung with ingrowth into the diaphragm and liver, metastatic liver damage in combination with recurrent echinococcosis of the liver. Taking into account the epidemiological history, the surgery, the features of radiation imaging and the results of serology in the preoperative period, the diagnosis of “echinococcosis of the liver with spread to the lungs” was made, which turned out to be incorrect. The diagnosis during the surgical operation was changed, but also turned out to be incorrect. The final diagnosis was made only on the basis of histological and immunohistochemical studies.The reasons of diagnostic errors are analyzed, the emphasis is made on the criteria of differential diagnosis. Typical features of visualization of liver echinococcosis, lung cancer with local and distant spread are presented.

Purpose. To demonstrate capabilities and features in spleen pathology diagnostics based on clinical experience of Botkin City Hospital.Materials and methods. The analysis of 89 patients with spleen abnormalities was performed in the term from 01/2014 till 08/2020. All the patients underwent computed tomography (CT) and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with contrast enhancing. All cases verified surgically and/or clinically.Results. There were 37 cases of trauma (42%). Accuracy and precision of the method was 100%. In detection of active bleeding the highest diagnostic accuracy (100%) was shown with extravasation symptom – 7 cases. In non-traumatic group (n = 52, 58%) two biggest sub-groups were abscesses (n = 19, 36% in this group) and infarctions (n = 15, 29%). There were 8 cases of cysts (15%), 3 of them – hydatid, 5 cases of spleen hemangiomas. (9.6%), 3 cases of spleen metastases (6%). There was 1 case of angiosarcoma (2%) and 1 case cystic lymphangioma (2%).Conclusion. The most frequent condition in spleen pathology, diagnosed in radiology department is trauma. In non-traumatic cases two biggest groups are abscesses and infarctions. CT features of spleen infarction are pyramidal wedge of hypoperfused splenic tissue with the apex pointing towards the hilum, and the base on the splenic capsule. In all cases in our study cysts were incidental findings. Spleen metastases are rare due to organ hemodynamics. The most rare lesions of the spleen are primal tumors.

Published: May 2021

The main purpose of our paper is to identify and analyse the underlying stereotype attributes concerning accountant, accounting and users through cartoons. Doing so, we aim to capture insights of how this spectrum of society perceives actors involved on accounting issues. Our study also differs from others as our period of analysis is long, 79 years, from 1925 to 2003. As we have the advantage of a long period and a popular non-professional database, we can work with multiple actors as accountant, accounting and users, instead of focusing on single one. And the richness of database also allowed splitting these main actors in 7 actors. In order to capture stereotype nuances of multiple actors from a cartoon database, we use discourse analysis method that has been used on other studies of identity but not to study accounting issues. As cartoons are composed by images and texts to give a message, it is richer to analyze discourse beyond images and texts. Our results are mainly consistent with previous studies although we found some different results when considering different periods of time as well new findings about tax actors such as taxpayers, tax agent and tax accounting.
