Published: September 2019

Background: Bronchiolitis is an acute inflammation of bronchioles that can be severe enough to require admission in intensive care unit. There are multiple modalities used for treatment of bronchiolitis. The objective of this study was to compare the response of adrenaline and salbutamol nebulization in terms of clinical improvement and duration of hospital stay. Study Design: Randomized controlled trial. Setting: Pediatrics Department of Avicenna Medical College and Hospital, Lahore. Period: March 2018 to October 2018. Methods: Total 66 patients with 33 in each group between ages of 2-months to 3-years admitted with the diagnosis of bronchiolitis, were included in the study. Children in the group 1 were patients treated with salbutamol nebulization 0.15 mg/kg with 3 ml normal saline every six hourly. Children in the group 2 received adrenaline nebulization 0.1 ml/kg of 1:1000 dilutions with 3 ml normal saline every six hourly. Both the groups were given similar supportive management that included oxygen therapy, intravenous fluids, and antipyretics. Data was collected in the form of age, gender, heart rate, respiratory rate, SpO2 and RDAI score at admission, 6hr, 24 hr and 48hr after admission, duration of hospital stay and duration of oxygen therapy. Results: Out of 66 patients, 38(57.6%) were male and 28(42%) were female. The mean with standard deviation of age in months was 20.45 + 12.9 in salbutamol group and 16.7 + 12.3 in adrenaline group (p value = 0.23). Mean with standard deviation of weight of patients was 9.7+ 3.5 in salbutamol group and 8.9+3.3 in adrenaline group (p value =0.34). Regarding the duration of hospital stay the mean and standard deviation of hospital stay was 4.2+ 0.9 in salbutamol group and 3.9 + 1 in adrenaline group with p value 0.016. Mean and standard deviation of duration of oxygen therapy was 1.05+ 0.7 in salbutamol group and 0.9+0.4 in adrenaline group with p value 0.42. There was no significant difference in the values of RDAI, heart rate, respiratory rate, SPO2 at admission and subsequently after 6hrs, 24hrs, and 48hrs. Conclusion: We concluded that there was a significant reduction in duration of hospital stay in patients who received adrenaline nebulization then those nebulized with salbutamol. RDAI scores in the initial 48 hours in both the groups were improved in successive readings, but there was no significant difference in RDAI scores between the two groups recorded at different time intervals.

The researcher uses sample one class. The research instrument is test. The test consists of pre-test and post-test. The result of the test is analyzed using paired t-test. The result showed that t value is -10.201 and df (degree of freedom) is 13. The researcher used the degree of significance 0.01/2 = 0.005. In the table of significance, it can be seen on the df 13 and on the degree of significance 0.005 (t-table 3.105). If t-value is compared to the t-table of the degree of significance, the result is t = -10.201 < 3.105. It means that there is significance improvement of the students’ vocbulary mastery through circle game. However, in the reserch, the researcher used two tailed test that compares the value of pre-test and post-test. It said as two tailed test, because t-table is divided in two (negative and positive) and put it on the right and left. After analyzing the result of t-test, the researcher used the degree of significance of 0.01/2 = 0.005, t-table = 3.105, and the researcher conclude that Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted, because the result of tvalue = -10.201 located in the area rejected of Ho, thus Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. Based on the result of the study, the researcher concludes that circle game is effective method used in improving students’ vocabulary mastery and makes the students more interest and fun in learning English.

REFLECTIVE PRACTICE AND SELF-IDENTITY AS PARTS OF PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT: A SURVEY IN A TERTIARY LEVEL
Authors: Amalia Lulu Laela 
Published: September 2019

This study aims at revealing the knowledge of the teachers on the concept of reflective practice and self-identity as parts of professional development in an EFL higher education context. Reflective practice is closely related to the idea of learning from experience (Thomson & Pascal, 2012) and ithas been an important activity since 1980s in western education. Unfortunately, it has not been treated as one in Asian context, let alone in Indonesia. Despite the debate on the constant definition of reflective practice, investigating the understanding of the concept is yet thought-provoking. Thus, this study involves some teachers in tertiary level from both state and private universities in Indonesia. The data in this study are gained through distributing a Likert scale questionnaire on the knowledge of Reflective Practice and self-identity and an interview as a follow up data collection method in order to have thorough information. The result of the study shows that almost all teachers are aware of both concepts and their benefits for their professional development. Key words: Reflective practice, Professional development, Self-identity

Sterculiaceae de Paraguay. I. <i>Ayenia, Byttneria, Guazuma, Helicteres, Melochia</i> y <i>Sterculia</i>
Authors: Cristóbal Carmen L. 
Published: September 2019

Se presenta la revisión de la familia Sterculiaceae para Paraguay, que está representada por 56 especies y 4 variedades, o sea un total de 59 entidades, de las cuales 3 son endémicas. Están repartidas en 7 géneros, los mismos que en la Argentina, con un número variable de especies, desde solamente una como enSterculia y Guazuma, hasta 16 como en Byttneria y Melochia.. La familia habita en todo el territorio en ambientes muy diversos, bosques en galería, campos de tierra fértil, también calcáreos, salitrosos o arenosos. El porte es generalmente arbustivo o subarbustivo, raro arbóreo o lianas. Las plantas son inermes o con aguijones como en especies de Byttneria. El proyecto de revisar esta familia incentivó la atención en los viajes de recolección. Como resultado se encontróAyenia magna representante de la sección Cybiostigma. La localidad más austral conocida era Trinidad en la costa de Venezuela, y ahora fue encontrada en Cerro León, en el centro-norte de Paraguay Occidental. Otro registro interesante es el deAyenia spinulosa de la cual se conocía solamente el ejemplar elegido como Tipo. Esta especie es propia de suelos calcáreos del Departamento Concepción. Una generosa cantidad de duplicados hizo posible que esta especie esté ahora representada en muchos herbarios del mundo. Las flores de las Sterculiaceae son siempre pequeñas, generalmente aglomeradas en las axilas de las hojas, a menudo son morfológicamente complejas. Los pétalos son rojizos o violáceos, raro amarillos como en Waltheria, o blancos. Las hojas son pecioladas, estipuladas, con pelos estrellados, también simples o glandulares. En Melochia pueden ser longistilas, brevistilas o medioestilas. El aspecto de las plantas y el indumento es bastante semejante al de muchas Malvaceae por esta razón es necesario revisar esta familia en los herbarios cuando se estudian las Sterculiaceae. Hay que prestar atención a las anteras que son 2-3-tecas y alargadas en las Sterculiaceae y monotecas y redondeadas en las Malvaceae. El texto incluye descripción, sinonimia, ilustración de cada taxón y claves para facilitar la identificación de cada uno de ellos, sus distribuciones están representadas en 11 mapas.Las ilustraciones de algunos géneros fueron tomadas de trabajos de Cristóbal, pero las de Melochia fueron elaboradas para el presente trabajo, lo que consideramos interesante, por que el autor de la monografía no incluye figuras de cada taxón.

Dos puertos (argentinos) del tercer mundo, de la escenografía de lo global a la actuación local
Authors: Ramos Leonardo 
Published: September 2019

<p>El puerto de la ciudad de Buenos Aires se exhibe como un producto del diseño en el cual los proyectistas urbanos, ingenieros, arquitectos, diseñadores y artistas dejan sus firmas. Es objetivo declarar que hay una clase de dictadura de diseñadores que, extremos a provocar una estandarización de ciertos modelos, crean el culto de la escena, la fachada, la fotografía. El papel del técnico arquitecto, urbanista, artista en este caso es sólo elegir, entre los catálogos de ciudades, las imágenes de lo global que se fabrican allende el mar. La cuestión es si realmente el Puerto de Buenos Aires funciona como puerto ultramoderno o si sus cambios sólo pertenecen a una escenografía donde se representan actos de una pretendida ciudad global.</p>
