Exploring Existential Loneliness Among Frail Older People as a Basis for an Intervention: Protocol for the Development Phase of the LONE Study
Authors: Edberg Anna-Karin , Bolmsjö Ingrid 
Published: July 2019

Background
International research concerning end-of-life issues emphasizes the importance of health care professionals (HCPs) being prepared to deal with existential aspects, like loneliness, in order to provide adequate care. The last phase of life is often related to losses of different kinds, which might trigger feelings of isolation in general and existential loneliness (EL) in particular. There is a large body of research concerning loneliness among older people in general, but little is known about the phenomenon and concept of EL in old age.

Objective
This study aims to describe the framing, design, and first results of the exploratory phase of an intervention study focusing on EL among older people: the LONE study. This stage of the study corresponds to the development phase, according to the Medical Research Council framework for designing complex interventions.

Methods
The LONE study contains both theoretical and empirical studies concerning: (1) identifying the evidence base; (2) identifying and developing theory through individual and focus group interviews with frail older people, significant others, and HCPs; and (3) modeling process and outcomes for the intervention. This project involves sensitive issues that must be carefully reviewed. The topic in itself concerns a sensitive matter and the study group is vulnerable, therefore, an ethical consciousness will be applied throughout the project.

Results
The results so far show that EL means being disconnected from life and implies a feeling of being fundamentally separated from others and the world, whether or not one has family, friends, or other close acquaintances. Although significant others highlighted things such as lack of activities, not participating in a social environment, and giving up on life as aspects of EL, the older people themselves highlighted a sense of meaningless waiting, a longing for a deeper connectedness, and restricted freedom as their origins of EL. The views of HCPs on the origin of EL, the place of care, and their own role differed between contexts.

Conclusions
The studies focusing on identifying the evidence base and developing theory are published. These results will now be used to identify potential intervention components, barriers, and enablers for the implementation of an intervention aimed at supporting HCPs in encountering EL among older people.

Published: July 2019

Background
Mobile health interventions are widely used for self-management of diabetes, which is one of the most burdensome noncommunicable chronic diseases worldwide. However, little is known about the distribution of characteristics and functions of in-store mobile apps for diabetes.

Objective
This study aimed to investigate the distribution of characteristics and functions of the in-store mobile apps for self-management of diabetes in the United States and China using a predefined functional taxonomy, which was developed and published in our previous study.

Methods
We identified apps by searching diabetes in English or Chinese in the Apple iTunes Store and Android Markets (both in the United States and China) and included apps for diabetes self-management. We examined the validity and reliability of the predefined functional taxonomy with 3 dimensions: clinical module, functional module, and potential risk. We then classified all functions in the included apps according to the predefined taxonomy and compared the differences in the features of these apps between the United States and China.

Results
We included 171 mobile diabetes apps, with 133 from the United States and 38 from China. Apps from both countries faced the challenges of evidence-based information, proper risk assessment, and declaration, especially Chinese apps. More Chinese apps provide app-based communication functions (general communication: Chinese vs US apps, 39%, 15/38 vs 18.0%, 24/133; P=.006 and patient-clinician communication: Chinese vs US apps, 68%, 26/38 vs 6.0%, 8/133; P<.001), whereas more US apps provide the decision-making module (Chinese vs US apps, 0%, 0/38 vs 23.3%, 31/133; P=.001), which is a high-risk module. Both complication prevention (Chinese vs US apps, 8%, 3/38 vs 3.8%, 5/133; P=.50) and psychological care (Chinese vs US apps, 0%, 0/38 vs 0.8%, 1/133; P>.99) are neglected by the 2 countries.

Conclusions
The distribution of characteristics and functions of in-store mobile apps for diabetes self-management in the United States was different from China. The design of in-store diabetes apps needs to be monitored closely.
A pálida História das Artes Visuais no Brasil: onde estamos negras e negros?
Authors: Santos Renata Aparecida Felinto dos 
Published: July 2019

Este artigo trata de como as produções em artes visuais que foram e são realizadas por artistas visuais negras e negros têm sido apagadas dos registros históricos, como livros e, consequentemente, do ensino de artes visuais. Quando são apresentados esses protagonismos e produções o são por meio de capítulos específicos em publicações e momentos pontuais em sala de aula para tratar de "arte negra" ou "afro-brasileira", dando a frágil percepção de que estamos incluindo a Lei 10.639/03 no currículo escolar, quando em verdade, continuamos a apartar os saberes da visualidade criados por essas e esses artistas daquele que chamamos de Artes Visuais, com letras maiúsculas. Propormos que artistas visuais negras e negros tenham suas biografias e criações aproximadas dos movimentos artísticos que já são estudados em artes visuais, quando possível, e quando não o for, que sejam apresentadas e apresentados como produção coetânea e paralela ao reconhecimento acadêmico e hegemônico, contextualizando sempre as disputas e supressões de narrativas que colocam o eurocentrismo como eixo da história das artes visuais e da humanidade. Dessa forma, propomos que a decolonialidade seja praticada em sala de aula e não apenas um termo contemporâneo utilizado nos estudos acadêmicos em humanidades numa perspectiva antirracista dos escritos.

Classroom management in the Shabah al-Lughah program has many variations on each subject and meeting. But there are also problem mufrodat learning in the classroom that are overcome by the teacher variation of strategies. his study aims to determine the strategy and role of supervisor (musyrifah) in the process of mufrodat learning on the mutawassith class so that it was categorized as a good classroom management. The type of this research is qualitative descriptive researchobtained from interviews, observation, and documentation relating to the strategy and role of musyrifah in measuring mutawassith class on the mufrodatmaterial; thenit analyzed. The data sources in this study are the musyrifah who teach in the mutawassith class. The results of this study are; first, variations strategy of musyrifah on the management of the mutawassith class when the mufrodat learning isusingthe audiolingual, the grammatical, the direct, the question, and answer method and the discussion. Second, the role of musyrifah in the classroom is more often teacher-centered, that ismusyrifah acts as an instructor, musyrifah arranges to seat, delivers material, minimizes the transition time, gives a clue when mahasantrimention mufrodat meaning.Musyrifah dominates speech while Learner-centered roles are rarely used. So the existence of this research can provide a solution for instructors of Arabic language to develop their strategies, so that the desired goals of mufrodat material can be achieved.

Published: July 2019

Tuberculosis is a contagious disease that remains a health problem worldwide. Treatment of tuberculosis is one of the main strategies in controlling tuberculosis because it can break the transmission chain, especially in families of household contacts where transmission is twice as risky as casual or unfamiliar contact. The purpose of this study was to analyze secondary data on patient adherence to pulmonary tuberculosis treatment sessions and transmission to household contact families in 2016-2017 at a private hospital in Indonesia. This research used a correlative descriptive design with Secondary Data Analysis (ADS) approach using existing data as primary data that is TB 06 and TB 09 data, TB 01 (medical card TB PKM). The population in this research was based on the report of patient data of TB DOTS year 2016-2017 with 60 TB patients. The statistical analysis used was Pearson’s r. The result of the research showed that the patient’s adherence of pulmonary tuberculosis to treatment sessions. [D1] The value of adherence was seen from all respondents of tuberculosis patients which coming to the referral clinic according to the TB 06, and TB 09. As well as the patient’s record card at the referral clinic showed all the respondents routinely took the anti tuberculosis medication and completed the treatment as recommended by the doctor. Investigation based on 60 respondents, there is 23.3% or 14 people diagnosed based on sputums, while remaining 46 people or 76.7% [D2] based on radiology results. Identification of household contact families members found positive sputum smear examination of 5 people (8.3%) and found to be undergoing tuberculosis treatment as many as 4 people (6.7%).The results of this study found a relationship between tuberculosis patient adherence to treatment sessions and transmission to household contact family with P value 0.001 (<0.05) with a moderate correlation (r) = 0.378%. For further [D3] treatment, the nurse includes TB 06 and TB 09 sheets for follow up treatment at the public health service center.

Published: July 2019

The needs of nursing care for Myocardial Infarction (MI) patients who performing Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) Program have been investigated previously. Despite, nutritional counseling and risk factors management were reported as the most needs of MI patients who performed CR Program, information related to the MI patients’ needs on nutritional counseling and risk factor management are very limited. Moreover, the relationship between patients’ needs on nutritional counseling and risk factor management are not clear yet. To investigate patients’ needs on nutritional counseling and risk factor management among MI patients and its relationships those factors. This was quantitative approach with descriptive correlational and convenience sampling was used for this study. The participants included 38 MI patients admitted to the Cardiac Rehabilitation Unit. Data collection employed from questionnaires that were filled in by the respondents using a retrospective technique at the end of cardiac rehabilitation program. Data were analyzed using descriptive and correlational statistics. The study signified that MI patients required cardiac rehabilitation towards risk factors management and nutritional counseling from nurses (92.1%).The finding also indicated that there is a statistically positive relationship between nutritional counseling needs and risk factor management (r = 0.503, p <0.01). Patients’ needs on nutritional counseling and risk factor management among MI patients are correlated positively. Therefore, the information regarding nutrition and risk factor management for MI patients should be provided simultaneously to complement each other.

This paper examines the additional 15 percent of Basuki Tjahaja Purnama (Ahok) discretion on reclamation for project developers. This paper aims to determine how Ahok’s discretion in Tempo magazine is constructed. The method of framing analysis of Robert N. Entman is employed. The news articles are taken from Tempo Magazine issues of 11 to 17 April 2016, 23 to 29 May 2016, and 20 to 26 June 2016. The sample are 8 news articles. Utilizing the analysis framing model by Robert N. Entman, this paper examines four devices unit of analysis: define problems, diagnose causes, make moral judgments, and treatment recommendation. The paper shows that Tempo is criticizing Ahok discretion. Tempo urges KPK to investigate the accuracy of Ahok discretion, because there is no legal foundation and the source of the problem of bribery reclamation cases. Aguan is suspected to participate in blocking the additional contribution. It is suggested that Tempo should reduce anonymous source in reporting so that the information is more reliable.

Published: July 2019

Abstract
Blue methylsalicylatocopper(II) complex with picolinamide Cu(3-Mesal)2(pnia)2 has been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis and spectral methods. Based on the infrared spectra, monodentate coordination of 3-methylsalicylate anion has been assumed and the coordination variability of the anion has been shown. By determination and refinement of the unit cell from powder diffraction data, the existence of a monomeric Cu(II) complex can be anticipated. EPR spectrum of the complex is in good agreement with these results. The g-factors fulfil the relation g
|| > g
┴ > 2.0023, which is consistent with the dx2 – y2 ground electronic state and indicates coordination sphere of distorted tetragonal symmetry {CuN2O2O2

Published: July 2019

Abstract
Nonwoven geotextiles are often used in road construction as a separation layer. They consist of the web of fibers with different orientations. The orientation of fibers has an important influence on physical and mechanical properties of nonwoven geotextiles. The production of nonwoven geotextiles is cheaper in comparison to woven or knitted fabrics which can also be used as separation geotextiles. The purpose of this research was to study the influence of structural properties of nonwoven geotextiles, namely the diameter of fibers and mass and thickness of nonwoven geotextiles, on their mechanical and hydraulic properties. Six types of nonwoven geotextiles were used in the research. They were produced by the drylaid process (carded) using mechanical bonding technique and also with the combination of mechanical and thermal bonding technique. The research confirmed that the bonding technique and structural properties significantly influence the separation and filtration properties of nonwoven geotextiles, such as opening size and water permeability. It was also found that there are no significant differences in mechanical properties, such as viscoelastic properties and compression creep, between the samples in the dry and wet conditions.

Published: July 2019

Abstract
This study was conducted to determine the effects of a low-protein diet supplemented with synthetic amino acids on the biochemical parameters in the blood serum, the indicators of fermentation processes, and nitrogen excretion in 12 crossbred piglets. The piglets (weaned at 28 days of age) were divided into two groups with 6 piglets each. The control group had an initial average body weight of 8.8 ± 0.6 kg and the experimental group with an average initial body weight of 8.6 ± 0.7 kg. The control diet contained 210.8 g.kg−1 crude protein and the experimental diet contained 186.4 g.kg−1. The experimental diet was supplemented with lysine, methionine and threonine to achieve a more ideal amino acid pattern. The blood collections from the sinus ophthalmicus for the determination of the biochemical parameters were performed 4 times at weekly intervals in the control and experimental groups 4—5 hours after feeding. The faeces were taken from the rectum at the end of the study period. The decrease in the dietary crude protein content of the experimental group was manifested by a significant decrease of the blood urea level (2.61 mmol.l−1 average concentration) compared to the control groups (4.21 mmol.l−1 average concentration) (P < 0.001). The other serum component concentrations (total protein, albumin, glucose, cholesterol, total lipids and selected enzymes) showed no significant statistical changes between the control and experimental groups. The results of the fermentation process analysis indicated that the butyrate concentration decreased (P = 0.0017) and the pH increased (P = 0.0180) in the experimental group compared to the control group. The levels of crude protein and ammonia in the faeces of experimental animals were significantly lower (P < 0.001) in comparison with those in the control animals.

Published: July 2019

Abstract
The aim of this study was to perform an electromyography comparison of three commonly used lower limb injury prevention exercises: a single-leg squat on a bench (SLSB), a double-leg squat (DLS) and a double-leg squat on a BOSU® balance trainer (DLSB). After determining the maximum isometric voluntary contraction of the hamstring and quadriceps, eight female athletes performed 3 repetitions of each exercise, while electromyography activity of the biceps femoris (BF), semitendinosus (ST), vastus lateralis (VL) and vastus medialis (VM) was monitored. Comparisons between exercises revealed higher activation in BF (descending phase: p = 0.016, d = 1.36; ascending phase: p = 0.046, d = 1.11), ST (descending phase: p = 0.04, d = 1.87; ascending phase: p = 0.04, d = 1.87), VL (ascending phase: p = 0.04, d = 1.17) and VM (descending phase: p = 0.05, d = 1.11; ascending phase: p = 0.021, d = 1.133) muscles for the SLSB compared to the DLSQ. Furthermore, higher muscular activation of the ST (ascending phase: p = 0.01, d = 1.51; descending phase: p = 0.09, d = 0.96) and VM (ascending phase: p = 0.065, d = 1.03; descending phase: p = 0.062, d = 1.05) during the SLSB with respect to the DLSB was observed. In conclusion, the SLSB elicits higher neuromuscular activation in both hamstring and quadriceps muscles compared to the other two analysed exercises. Additionally, the higher muscle activation of both medial muscles (ST and VM) during the SLSB suggests that single leg squatting exercises may enhance lower limb medial to lateral balance, and improve knee stability in the frontal plane.

Abstract
The aims of this study were to assess bone mass in children and adolescent soccer players and to evaluate the influence of both gender and pubertal status on bone mass. A total of 110 soccer players (75 males / 35 females; 12.73 ± 0.65 / 12.76 ± 0.59 years) participated in this cross-sectional study. They were divided into two groups according to their pubertal status. Bone and lean masses were measured with Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry. An independent t-test and an adjusted by subtotal lean and training experience multivariate analysis of covariance were used to analyse the differences in bone mass values between genders and maturity status. Female soccer players presented higher bone mass values than their male counterparts in most of the measured weight-bearing sites. Moreover, when stratifying by pubertal status, peripubertal and postpubertal females had higher subtotal body and lumbar spine bone mass than males. Comparing between pubertal status groups before adjustment, both male and female postpubertal players showed higher bone mass than their pubertal counterparts. After adjusting, these differences disappeared and, in fact results were inverted as bone mass at the femoral neck was higher in both male and female peripubertal soccer players than in postpubertal players. Bone mass seems to be more intensely stimulated by playing soccer in female than male players, particularly in the lumbar spine. The results of peripubertal players showing higher bone mass at the femoral neck after adjusting suggest that playing soccer during the peripubertal stage could be an effective activity to achieve optimal bone mass values.
