Authors: Bachman Sara S. , Wachman Madeline , Manning Leticia , Cohen Alexander M. , Seifert Robert W. , Jones David K. , Fitzgerald Therese , Nuzum Rachel , Riley Patricia 
Published: December 2017

Objectives. To critically analyze social work’s role in Medicaid reform. Methods. We conducted semistructured interviews with 46 stakeholders from 10 US states that use a range of Medicaid reform approaches. We identified participants using snowball and purposive sampling. We gathered data in 2016 and analyzed them using qualitative methods. Results. Multiple themes emerged: (1) social work participates in Medicaid reform through clinical practice, including care coordination and case management; (2) there is a gap between social work’s practice-level and systems-level involvement in Medicaid innovations; (3) factors hindering social work’s involvement in systems-level practice include lack of visibility, insufficient clarity on social work’s role and impact, and too few resources within professional organizations; and (4) social workers need more training in health transformation payment models and policy. Conclusions. Social workers have unique skills that are valuable to building health systems that promote population health and reduce health inequities. Although there is considerable opportunity for social work to increase its role in Medicaid reform, there is little social work involvement at the systems level.
Health Outcomes and Costs of Social Work Services: A Systematic Review
Authors: Steketee Gail , Ross Abigail M. , Wachman Madeline K. 
Published: December 2017

Background. Efforts to reduce expensive health service utilization, contain costs, improve health outcomes, and address the social determinants of health require research that demonstrates the economic value of health services in population health across a variety of settings. Social workers are an integral part of the US health care system, yet the specific contributions of social work to health and cost-containment outcomes are unknown. The social work profession’s person-in-environment framework and unique skillset, particularly around addressing social determinants of health, hold promise for improving health and cost outcomes. Objectives. To systematically review international studies of the effect of social work–involved health services on health and economic outcomes. Search Methods. We searched 4 databases (PubMed, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Social Science Citation Index) by using “social work” AND “cost” and “health” for trials published from 1990 to 2017. Selection Criteria. Abstract review was followed by full-text review of all studies meeting inclusion criteria (social work services, physical health, and cost outcomes). Data Collection and Analysis. Of the 831 abstracts found, 51 (6.1%) met criteria. Full text review yielded 16 studies involving more than 16 000 participants, including pregnant and pediatric patients, vulnerable low-income adults, and geriatric patients. We examined study quality, health and utilization outcomes, and cost outcomes. Main Results. Average study quality was fair. Studies of 7 social work–led services scored higher on quality ratings than 9 studies of social workers as team members. Most studies showed positive effects on health and service utilization; cost-savings were consistent across nearly all studies. Conclusions. Despite positive overall effects on outcomes, variability in study methods, health problems, and cost analyses render generalizations difficult. Controlled hypothesis-driven trials are needed to examine the health and cost effects of specific services delivered by social workers independently and through interprofessional team-based care. Public Health Implications. The economic and health benefits reported in these studies suggest that the broad health perspective taken by the social work profession for patient, personal, and environmental needs may be particularly valuable for achieving goals of cost containment, prevention, and population health. Novel approaches that move beyond cost savings to articulate the specific value-added of social work are much needed. As health service delivery focuses increasingly on interprofessional training, practice, and integrated care, more research testing the impact of social work prevention and intervention efforts on the health and well-being of vulnerable populations while also measuring societal costs and benefits is essential.

Published: December 2017

Social work education plays a critical role in preparing social workers to lead efforts that improve health. Because of the dynamic health care landscape, schools of social work must educate students to facilitate health care system improvements, enhance population health, and reduce medical costs. We reviewed the existing contributions of social work education and provided recommendations for improving the education of social workers in 6 key areas: aging, behavioral health, community health, global health, health reform, and health policy. We argue for systemic improvement in the curriculum at every level of education, including substantive increases in content in health, health care, health care ethics, and evaluating practice outcomes in health settings. Schools of social work can further increase the impact of the profession by enhancing the curricular focus on broad content areas such as prevention, health equity, population and community health, and health advocacy.
Investigation of the combined effect of air pockets and air bubbles on fluid transients
Authors: Pozos-Estrada Oscar 
Published: December 2017

AbstractThis paper presents numerical and experimental investigations of the combined effect on pressure transients of air pockets and homogenous water–air bubble mixtures. An air pocket can accumulate at a high point of a pipeline along the control section located at the transition between pipes with sub- and supercritical slope, forcing open channel flow conditions underneath the pocket that ends in a hydraulic jump at the downward sloping pipe. The turbulence action at the jump generates small air bubbles that are entrained and transported along the pipe producing a two-component bubbly flow within the continuous liquid phase. A numerical model is developed, combining the explicit–implicit scheme proposed by McGuire and Morris and the method of characteristics for solving the quasi-linear hyperbolic partial differential equations for transient two-phase flow expressed in conservation form. To verify the proposed model, an experimental apparatus made of PVC was used to carry out hydraulic transient experiments. Tests were conducted in a tank–pipe–valve system and a valve with a pneumatic actuator at the downstream end generated transients. Numerical results at the test section pipe compares favorably with experimental data. The results show that pressure transients are significantly reduced with increasing air-pocket volumes and bubbly flow air content.

Published: December 2017

Objectives:
To study anterior bite opening of unknown cause presenting in adulthood regarding prevalence, symptoms of Temporomandibular Dysfunction (TMD) and possible causes of the bite opening.

Methods:
Patients referred to two Orofacial Pain and TMD clinics with the complaint of recent anterior bite opening, presenting in adulthood and of unknown cause, were considered for the study. Patients with systemic rheumatic or neuromuscular diseases, degenerative joint disease, previous fractures of the jaws or orthodontic treatment, were excluded. The clinical examination was according to DC/TMD and extended for the occlusion. Reported symptoms, clinical signs, the occlusion and diagnoses found are presented. According to the information gained from the patient’s history, previous occlusion and appearance, and present signs of parafunction, a possible association with the bite opening was suggested.

Results:
Anterior bite opening was found in 1.6% of the referred patients. Symptoms of tiredness and/or orofacial pain were reported by 62%, headache by 41%, TMJ clicking by 24% and sensitive/tender teeth by 41%. Parafunction or bruxism was reported by 2/3 of the patients. A previous period in life of TMD symptoms, before the bite opening, was reported by 66%. Myalgia and headache associated with TMD were frequently diagnosed. The use of a partial dental splint, tongue pressure and pregnancy were possible causes found for the bite opening.

Conclusion:
Anterior bite opening can occur in adulthood without organic or systemic disease of the TMJ or masticatory muscles, and was frequently associated with muscle TMD symptoms.

Published: December 2017

Limiting venous blood flow restriction is a new approach of training aims to improving high level of performance among athletes, which has shown prominent results at muscle hypotrophy and strength. KAATSU[1] is a training system including pressure belt imposed on the proximal part of the upper and lower bodies. The present study aims to investigate the effect of HIIT Kaatsu trainings on anaerobic performance among young athletes. The present quasi experimental research was conducted through a pre-test and post-test and three groups including KAATSU intensive interval exercises (n=11), intense interval exercise (n=9) and a control group (n=10). The exercises included running distances of 20 and 40 meters. In the beginning of the protocol most of the exercises was in short distances and as the sessions proceeded, the number of the sets and repetitions increased and it reached to its highest intensity in the last session. During the exercise protocol, intensity of training was considered to be the highest running speed and based on their abilities each individual tried to run as fast as possible. The exercise load was defined based on repetitions and the sets. In the 20 meters distances, the participants took a ten second rest after each repetition and a one minute rest after each set and in 40 meters distances; Subjects took a 20 second rest after each repetition and 2 minute rest between sets. The control group did not performed any of the mentioned exercises. Moreover, before and after four weeks of training the individuals were given RAST and Anaerobic Biking Wingate Test. Statistical result has been shown, there is a significant change between the maximum anaerobic power in Wingate biking test after four weeks within KAATSU intensive interval (P≥ 0.05) and intensive interval (P≥ 0.05) groups, but no significant change was detected in the control group (P> 0.05). The statistical analysis of this research has been shown that there is of current investigation indicated that compared to intensive interval exercise alone, attending the KAATSU intensive exercises is more effective on the highest anaerobic power ( Wingate bike) and the lowest as well as the average of anaerobic power.
Meniscopatía aguda en paciente joven. Tratamiento conservador a propósito de un caso.
Authors: Fernández Fernández David , Fernández la Villa Juan , Aguado Maestro Ignacio 
Published: December 2017

Las lesiones meniscales son una patología que aparecen cada vez en pacientes más jóvenes, generalmente varones y deportistas, debido al incremento en la realización de actividad física y a la intensidad de la misma.
Así mismo son lesiones muy limitantes en cuanto a la actividad, por lo que el paciente generalmente demanda una resolución clínica temprana para reincorporarse a su actividad.
En este artículo ponemos de manifiesto la importancia que tiene el menisco como estructura para distribución de fuerzas y por consiguiente protección del cartílago articular a largo plazo.
Por ello recalcamos la importancia de todos aquellos tratamientos encaminados a la conservación meniscal, y se plantea una reflexión en torno a las lesiones meniscales en pacientes en los que el deporte es su principal actividad y para los cuales es imprescindible una reincorporación temprana a la actividad.
En contraposición encontramos a los pacientes deportistas amateur donde, si la lesión lo permite, podemos optar por un tratamiento conservador durante más meses con restricción de la actividad deportiva a expensas de conservar a largo plazo la mayor superficie meniscal posible.

ão chamadas úlceras de pressão aquelas decorrentes de isquemia tecidual provocada pela alteração do reflexo de dor em pacientes com lesão medular, pacientes debilitados, idosos ou cronicamente doentes. No Brasil, poucos estudos vêm sendo realizados a respeito das úlceras de pressão e seu tratamento. É consensual que as úlceras de pressão constituem um problema sério, causando uma mortalidade e mobili­dade significativas. Os principais fatores de risco incluem a imobilidade e a desnutrição como determinantes no aparecimento de úlceras de pressão. Os materiais de redução e alívio da pressão podem contribuir extensivamente para a prevenção destas situações. Neste artigo, baseado em um trabalho monográfico anterior, é feito uma análise dos cuidados disponíveis aos doentes com úlceras de pressão e das evidências que suportam a melhor prática. Serão focados alguns aspectos essenciais e comuns a todas as úlceras de pressão, de modo a facilitar a caracterização da população de risco e a definição de estratégias de prevenção e tratamento efetivos.

Insurance and reinsurance companies are required, to maintain a soundfinancial standing and comply with the provisions on the companies equity as stipulated by the government. To achieve such equity, the companies must retain their profitability. Under a supervision system supported by the audit committee, internal auditor and external auditor, it is expected that the insurance companies shall be able to fulfill their obligation in complying with all the prevailing regulations. If these companies fail to do so, the companies shall be subject to the supervision by the government. This study was conducted on insurance and reinsurance companies listed in the Indonesian Stock Exchange in 2012 (11 companies). Thirty eight high officials of the top management of the companies were interviewed as respondents. By applying the SPSS program the results showed that there are significant relations among the audit committee, the internal and external auditor in supervising the operations of the insurance companies. There is a positive correlation between the audit committee and the internal auditor; and there is a positive correlation between the audit committee and the external auditor whereas there is also a positive correlation between the internal auditor and the external auditor. Simultaneous influence of the audit committee, the internal audit and the external audit shows a positive effect on the financial soundness. However, external audit has only partial influence on the financial soundness. The simultaneous influence of audit committee, audit internal, audit external and financial soundness shows a significant effect on the profitability. The partial influence on each independent variabel (mentioned above) has a significant effect on the profitability.

Authors: Putranto Yohanes Andri , Kewal Suramaya Suci 
Published: December 2017

The purpose of this study is to test empirically the effect of Corporate SocialResponsibility (CSR) on the financial performance of banking companies listed in the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). In contrast to previous studies, this study uses the social bank characteristics for the measurement of CSR. Social bank characteristics are a proxy of sustainability development. The company's performance is proxied by Tobin's Q. The sample was banking companies listed on the IDX in 2008 to 2012. This study used a multiple regression model and the R software to test the hypothesis. At the 5% significance level, the results show that CSR significantly affects the financial performance of banking companies listed in the IDX. The regression coefficient of CSR on corporate performance is -0.075769, thus CSR as measured by the social bank characteristics as a proxy of sustainability development is significantly negative on firm financial performance as measured by Tobin's Q. In other words, CSR-basedsustainability development does not affect the increase of financial performance of banking companies that are listed in the IDX.

Published: December 2017

This study aims to identify the patterns and scope of integrated reporting and to examine the effect of audit committee characteristics (expertise and meeting) on elements of integrated reporting disclosed in the annual report of companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchanges (IDX). This study used 170 annual reports of companies listed on the IDX as research data (not all companies have the required data). Research data were then analyzed using STATA / MP14 Software. The findings showed that the IDX-listed companies have presented annual reports in accordance with the elements of integated reporting although the scope of presentation was relatively low amounting of 51% (33 of 64 indicators). Furthermore, this study revealed that the audit committees’ expertise (in accounting/ finance) and the frequency of audit committee meetings positively and significantly influenced the scope of the integrated reporting presented in the annual report of the companies.
