"I Visited a Traditional Healer Because I Felt I wasn’t Getting any Better by Using Active Antiretroviral". Understanding Cultural Imperatives in the Context of Adherence to Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy
Authors: Ondwela Matombo , Mothiba Tebogo , Mangi Nozuko , Ter Goon Daniel 
Published: August 2019

Background:
Anecdotal and empirical evidence seems to indicate that many people across the African continent indulge in different cultural practices that impinge on their adherence to the Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART). These cultural practices vary between ethnicities or regions.

Objective:
The aim of this paper was to explore the cultural practices affecting HIV positive patients’ adherence to HAART in the Mopani district in Limpopo province, South Africa.

Methods:
A qualitative, explorative, descriptive study was conducted. Data were collected through one-to-one unstructured interviews using an interview schedule guide. Data were analysed using Tesch’s method of qualitative data analysis.

Results:
The findings indicate that cultural practices and beliefs concerning diseases and cure, prevailing faith that traditional health practitioners (THPs) could treat HIV/AIDS, stigmatisation of HIV patients, and the belief that HIV is caused by witchcraft and demons were the factors affecting patients on HAART. Clearly, HIV positive patients on HAART concurrently visit and patronise the THPs. This practice is affected by their cultural orientations and negatively impact on their adherence to HAART.

Conclusion:
The increased patronage of traditional medicine among HIV individuals are HAART calls for the integration of traditional health services into public health, and a multi-disciplinary collaboration would be beneficial to the community.
Deployment of Multiple Sink in Different Monitoring Areas Based on the Optimization Technique
Authors: Chandel Sonal Telang , Sharma Sanjay 
Published: August 2019

Background:
Wireless Sensor Networks are widely used in different applications like
environmental monitoring, health monitoring, wildlife monitoring, etc. The monitored area may
be of any shape, such as circular, rectangular, and square. Finding an ideal node deployment technique
in Wireless Sensor Systems Networks (WSNs) that would diminish cost, be powerful to
node failure, shorten calculation, and communication overhead, and guarantee full coverage
alongside network connectivity is a troublesome issue. Sensing coverage and system connectivity
are two of the most basic issues in WSNs as they can straightforwardly affect the network lifetime
and activity. In traditional WSNs, deployment of a single sink results in more traffic load on that
sink causes higher energy consumption. Thus, it is necessary to deploy multiple sinks.

Methods:
The efficient deployment of sensors and multiple sinks is a challenging task as the performance
of the network depends on it. This paper proposes “Sensor Sink Deployment Optimization
Algorithm (SSDOA)” sensors and multiple sinks deployment technique in different monitoring
area. The deployment strategy is based on the optimization technique. We have simulated it in
Matlab simulator. The impact of sensors and sinks on various network performance parameters
like coverage, network lifetime and energy consumption has been analyzed.

Results:
Compared to existing methods, our method performs better in any monitoring area. Reported
numerical results show that the proposed approach SSDOA outperforms PSO, GA and
Random deployment in the square monitoring area with 9% better network lifetime, 4% full coverage
and 7.3% lesser energy consumption respectively. Furthermore, our proposed approach also
performs better in circular and rectangular monitoring area.

Objectives: Vitamin D is a
well-known hormone and important for many metabolic pathways and different
health outcomes. The physiology of vitamin D is very complex. Multiple factors
like ethnicity, age, sex, diseases, and medication influence vitamin D
concentrations. In this study, our aim was to determine the prevalence
of vitamin D deficiency among adults in
Turkey.
Material-methods: The 25(OH) vitD3
test results of 2007 patients admitted to Selçuk University Medicine Faculty hospital
between the years of 2015 and 2016 were analyzed, retrospectively. Patients
using any vitamin D consisting drug, having chronic disease and inflammatory
disorders were excluded. Vitamin D levels were measured by a
chromatographic method (LC/MS/MS) with API3200 which is the gold standard to
measure 25(OH)D3. Results: Our
results show that the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency is
about 67.9% in our society. The mean
value of vitamin D was 16,87 ng/mL and females had significantly lower 25(OH)D3
levels compared to males (p&lt;0.001).The 25(OH)D3 levels were
higher in summer and in fall than in winter and spring. (p&lt;0.001) Conclusıons: The results indicate that
vitamin D deficiency is prevalent in this study population despite high
levels of sunshine and UV radiation throughout the year. Preventive treatments should be
planned.Amaç: D vitamini,
birçok metabolik yolakta rol alan ve bazı hastalıklarla ilişkili olan bir
hormondur. Vitamin D fizyolojisi çok karmaşıktır. Etnik köken, yaş, cinsiyet, hastalıklar ve
ilaç kullanımı vitamin D konsantrasyonunu etkilemektedir. Bu çalışmada amacımız
Türkiye’de sağlıklı erişkinlerde vitamin D eksikliği sıklığını belirlemekti. Yöntem: 2015-2016
yılları arasında Selçuk Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Hastanesi'ne başvuran 2007
hastanın 25(OH)D3 test sonuçları retrospektif olarak incelendi. Vitamin
D içeren ilaç kullanan, kronik hastalık veya enflamatuar hastalıkları olan
hastalar çalışma dışı bırakılmıştır. D vitamini seviyeleri, 25(OH)D3
ölçmek için altın standart olan kromatografik yöntemle (LC / MS / MS) API3200
cihazı ile ölçülmüştür. Sonuçlar: Bulgularımız,
çalışma popülasyonumuzda D vitamini eksikliği prevalansının yaklaşık %67,9
olduğunu göstermektedir. D vitamini ortalama değeri 16,87 ng/mL idi ve
kadınlarda 25(OH)D3 seviyeleri, erkeklere göre anlamlı derecede düşüktü (p
&lt;0,001). Yaz ve sonbahar mevsiminde 25 (OH) D3 seviyeleri, kış ve ilkbahar
mevsimine göre daha yüksekti.(p &lt;0.001) Tartışma: Sonuçlarımız

ABSTRAKIndonesia adalah negara yang plural, pluralisme di Indonesia tercermin dalam semboyan Bhinneka Tunggal Ika. Semboyan Bhinneka Tunggal Ika merupakan simbol pengikat persatuan bangsa Indonesia yang terdiri dari beragam suku, budaya, bahasa, dan agama yang berbeda-beda. Bhinneka Tunggal Ika juga berarti pengakuan terhadap kenyataan sosial historis bahwa rakyat Indonesia telah sejak lama berinteraksi secara rukun dan harmonis. Namun, sangat disayangkan pasca runtuhnya Orde Baru terjadi serangkaian konflik SARA di beberapa daerah. Kota Ambon dan Poso menjadi saksi bahwa kepentingan politik, sosial, ekonomi, dan agama akhirnya mencoreng potret kerukunan dan keharmonisan yang telah terbangun sejak lama. Maka pengokohan nilai-nilai keindonesiaan dan nasionalisme menjadi sangat penting untuk kembali dikuatkan. Sehingga kejadian-kejadian konflik yang pernah terjadi di masa lalu tidak terulang kembali pada masa-masa selanjutnya.Kata Kunci: Kemajemukan, Konflik, dan Persatuan. ABSTRACTIndonesia is a plural country, pluralism in Indonesia is reflected in the motto of Unity in Diversity. The motto of Unity in Diversity is a symbol of the binding of the unity of the Indonesian nation which consists of diverse ethnicities, cultures, languages and religions. Bhineka Tunggal Ika also means recognition of the historical social reality that the Indonesian people have long interacted harmoniously and harmoniously. However, it is very unfortunate that after the collapse of the New Order a series of SARA conflicts occurred in several regions. The cities of Ambon and Poso bear witness that political, social, economic and religious interests have finally tarnished the image of harmony and harmony that has been built for a long time. So strengthening the values of Indonesianness and nationalism becomes very important to be strengthened again. So that the events of conflict that have occurred in the past did not happen again in later periods. Keywords: Diversity, Conflict, and Unity.

Published: August 2019

Background
Video feedback has been shown to be an effective teaching tool that can improve student learning when having them view their own performance. However, the literature on the effect of integrating smartphones with video feedback in fundamental nursing skills teaching is sparse.

Objective
This study aimed to explore the potential effects of video feedback through smartphone-based instant messaging on teaching undergraduate nursing students fundamental nursing skills.

Methods
We conducted a study on teaching fundamental nursing skills to 6 classes of second-year undergraduate nursing students. In 2 classes (the intervention group), the instructor elected to use smartphone-based video feedback to facilitate teaching; instructors in the other 4 classes (the control group) elected to use routine methods of teaching without video feedback. Scores from the final examination, in-class assignments, and the General Self-Efficacy Scale questionnaire were collected and compared between the two groups. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to estimate the independent effect of video feedback after adjusting for gender, age, and prior experience in the use of WeChat/QQ in learning applications. An ad hoc questionnaire was used for student evaluation of the novel smartphone-based video feedback teaching method.

Results
A total of 195 nursing students (65 in the video feedback group and 130 in the control group) completed the study and were included in the final analysis. Mean and standard deviation of scores on the final examination, bed making, aseptic procedure, vital signs measurement, and oxygen therapy were 91.29 (SD 2.36), 90.52 (SD 3.18), 93.23 (SD 3.16), 91.65 (SD 4.21), and 92.06 (SD 3.58), respectively, in the video feedback group and 89.99 (SD 3.12), 81.71 (SD 8.63), 87.12 (SD 5.50), 87.45 (SD 8.00), and 90.37 (SD 6.36), respectively, in the control group (differences were statistically significant). The mean and standard deviation of scores for assignments in catheterization and enema and General Self-Efficacy Scale were 89.69 (SD 3.22), 91.14 (SD 3.15), and 24.52 (SD 5.35), respectively, in the video feedback group and 88.82 (SD 7.48), 90.79 (SD 6.08), and 24.50 (SD 6.16), respectively, in the control group (differences were not statistically significant). The majority (over 98%) of nursing students were satisfied with this smartphone-based video feedback teaching method.

Conclusions
Video feedback through smartphone-based instant messaging may be an effective way to improve nursing students’ academic performance and professional skills.

The aim of the present study was to understand, in Portugal, relationships between the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and the organizational performance, on the one hand, and relationships between the shareholder value creation and the CEO total compensation, on the other hand. This research is divided into two parts. The first part was examined whether organizational performance based on accounting measures influences organizational performance based on market measures and whether organizational performance based on accounting measures and market measures influences the CEO total compensation. The second part of the study analyses whether organizational performance, based on accounting measures and market measures, and the CEO total compensation influence the shareholder value creation. This research was based on agency theory assumptions in order to build the analysis model. The sample was composed of companies listed on Euronext Lisbon. The data analysis was performed using the structural equation modelling method. The results showed that organizational performance based on accounting measures influences organizational performance based on market measures, the CEO total compensation and the shareholder value creation.<p> </p>

História do Direito Administrativo no Brasil (1937-1964): o debate em torno das delegações legislativasThe history of the Administrative Law in Brazil (1937-1964): the debate about legislative delegation Mauricio Costa Mesurini[1] RESUMO: Trata-se de um trabalho sobre história do Direito Administrativo no Brasil, notadamente no período de 1937 a 1964. O objetivo é mostrar alguns aspectos da trajetória do campo, em especial as transformações favorecidas pela tendência modernizadora, entre elas, o debate em torno das delegações legislativas, um tema que se desenvolveu na doutrina a partir e à margem das disposições constitucionais da época. É inegável a importância da lei para o direito público moderno. Mas o que é a lei? Quem tem o poder de confeccioná-la? “O governo das leis” em substituição ao “governo dos homens”, em verdade uma tautologia, encobre o problema sobre a fonte de onde emanam as leis. Assim sendo, mesmo em um Estado de Direito, a disputa político-jurídica permanece latente e continua em jogo a definição de quem são os “senhores” da legislação. O artigo investiga o debate jurídico em torno das delegações legislativas abordando quatro juristas da época: Francisco Campos, Victor Nunes Leal, Bilac Pinto e Themistocles Cavalcanti. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Direito Administrativo. Direito Constitucional. Delegações legislativas. Separação de poderes. ABSTRACT: This paper is a study on the history of administrative law in Brazil, notably in the period 1937-1964. The purpose is to present some aspects of the development of this field of study, especially the changes favored by the modernization process through which Brazil has passed, such as the debate about legislative delegation, a theme that was developed in the legal doctrine from and beyond the constitutional arrangement of the period. It is undeniable the importance of the legislation to modern public law. But what is legislation? Who has the power to make it? The “rule of law” replacing the “government of men”, in fact a tautology, conceals the problem of the source from where the law emanates. Therefore, even in the bases of the rule of law, the legal-political dispute remains latent, and the definition about who establishes the law remains open. More specifically, the paper analyzes the debate about legislative delegation in Brazil by four legal experts of the period: Francisco Campos, Victor Nunes Leal, Bilac Pinto and Themistocles Cavalcanti. KEYWORDS: Administrative law. Constitutional law. Legislative delegation. Separation of powers.[1] Doutor em História do Direito pela Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina – UFSC, 2016.

A ESTRUTURA POTENCIAL DO GÊNERO DO BOLETIM DE OCORRÊNCIA SOBRE CRIMES DE LINGUAGEM CONTRA A HONRA
Authors: Ribeiro Marcos Rogério 
Published: August 2019

Este trabalho tem como objetivo realizar uma análise de gênero do Boletim de Ocorrência (doravante BO) sobre crimes de linguagem contra a honra, revelando a sua estrutura potencial com movimentos e respectivas funções. Serão utilizados, como fundamento teórico, os estudos sobre análise de gênero de John Swales (1990), sobre gramática sistêmico-funcional de Halliday e Hasan (1989) e sobre a análise da narrativa de Labov and Waletsky (1967). O corpus de pesquisa compõe-se de 60 BOs, dos anos compreendidos entre 2004 e 2009, sobre crimes contra a honra coletados aleatoriamente na Delegacia de Polícia de Itaara, cidade contígua à Santa Maria, na região central do estado do Rio Grande do Sul. A escolha de ocorrências de crimes contra a honra deve-se ao fato de eles figurarem entre os crimes praticados por intermédio do uso da linguagem, razão pela qual são chamados de crimes de linguagem, isto é, um comportamento linguístico que se torna alvo da ação legal (Gibbons, 2005, apud Fuzer, 2007). Os resultados evidenciaram que o BO sobre crimes de linguagem contra a honra é constituído de seis movimentos fixos e invariáveis, sendo, por esse motivo, considerado um gênero formulaico. Esta pesquisa pode servir de auxílio a alunos de academias de polícia no sentido de melhor compreender e produzir o gênero BO e, por esta mesma razão, pode ser também útil em cursos de Letras nesta área, uma vez que o BO é um gênero com o qual muitas pessoas provavelmente mantiveram contato, como experiência pessoal, em uma delegacia de polícia.
Coevolution of environmental sustainability orientation and strategic alliance learning in green supply chain management
Authors: Chu Kuo-Ming 
Published: August 2019

Abstract
The main aim of this paper is to show how green supply chain (SC) environmental sustainability orientation and strategic alliance learning coevolve over time. Our position is that the level of interfirm learning is a determinant of the formations and mastery mechanisms evolving in a green SC. Therefore, this study discusses the environmental sustainability of the learning processes of firms’ alliances during the life cycle of the alliances. This is done in order to encourage firms to follow green innovation and green SCs through enhancing their environmental performance and increasing their competitive advantage in the global market. In addition, this study develops a research structure and test hypotheses on the basis of survey data from 342 Taiwanese firms listed on the stock market. The results indicate that green knowledge acquisition plays a prominent role in the performance of firms’ alliances, especially when implemented in a green SC management (SCM) context. Moreover, according to one of the main findings, as companies evolve through the different phases of the alliance life cycle, their situation shows high potential for creating knowledge sharing through their exploration capabilities. Finally, when firms focus their internal organizations on learning and environmental requirements, they become better able to expand their learning capacity as well as to build and maintain a sustainable competitive advantage.

Published: August 2019

Abstract: The Ideology of Secularism in the Public Comment on the Discourse of DKI Jakarta Pilkada on Social Media. This study aims to determine the realization of secularism in the public comment text on the DKI Jakarta Pilkada news discourse on social media in terms of vocabulary and sentence structure. This study uses a qualitative-descriptive approach and content analysis method based on Norman Fairclough's theory of critical discourse. The results of the study show that the ideology of secularism is realized: (1) using words that are not related to religion such as the words smart, objective, rational, not, real work etc. which is associated with context; (2) active sentences, with the aim of further highlighting the actors and objects of events; and (3) passive sentences, with the aim of further highlighting the target and hiding the perpetrator. Ideology in discourse can be expressed through vocabulary choices and sentence structure in text through critical discourse analysis, both in mass media texts, and in individual texts (comments) on social media.
