Published: January 2018

It is emphasized in the literature that the quality of children's literature books need to be brought together with children, starting from early childhood. It is also known in these books how important it is for children to acquire models and meet the characters they can identify with. In this context, it is aimed to examine the characteristics of adult and child characters in children's literature books. Content analysis of fourteen books in which adult and child characters are the main characters from children 's novels in the last decade (2007-2017), which can be reached by criterion sampling method, were made. Four different tables developed by the researcher in order to determine the way of development, general and personality characteristics of the adult and child characters analyzed in this process were used and these tables were presented in the findings section. In general, results showed that adult and child characters were developed in five different character development paths and in detail, adult characters are not treated as much as child characters. Results also suggested that both adult and child characters are constructed with more positively perceived personality traits. In the discussion section, these findings have been discussed in the light of the basic characteristics of characters in children's literature books.Extended English abstract is in the end of Full Text PDF (TURKISH) file.ÖzetNitelikli çocuk edebiyatı yapıtlarının erken çocukluk döneminden başlayarak çocuklarla buluşturulmasının gerekliliği alanyazında vurgulanmaktadır.

Tutorial akademicki w naukach filologicznych na tle założeń interakcyjnego dyskursu glottodydaktycznego – krytyczna analiza różnic i podobieństw
Authors: Karpińska-Musiał Beata 
Published: January 2018

The article is a comparative study of a few chosen criteria of interactive discourse in glottodidactics, as formulated by Anna Seretny (2014) and the specificity of personalized one-to-one language teaching in a tutorial. The thesis stated by the author claims that tutorial, due to its different type of teacher-student interaction, varying epistemological background and distinctive levels of interactive rhetoric (e.g. its less instructional and more natural character) is not an obvious space for developing language competence. On the other hand, it may, as the space for very individual and intense learning context, promote development of communicative skills and critical thinking, thus helping to meet cognitive aims of the curriculum in philological studies at the university.
Ecclesiasticus, War Graves, and the Secularization of British Values
Authors: Vincent Alana M. 
Published: January 2018

Abstract
This article reads the design of the British Imperial War Graves cemeteries in the context of the religious pluralism of the late Empire. Reviewing the deliberations of the design committee and parliamentary debates on the design of the cemeteries, it notes that the Christian character of the cemeteries was relatively muted, a design decision which caused no small amount of public and political controversy, but which permitted the cemeteries to present an image of a unified Empire. The paper argues that the choice of quotations specifically from the apocrypha was an important and deliberate aspect of this presentational strategy.
Retrieval of a broken sewing needle from the sacrum aided by a permanent magnet: a case report and literature review
Authors: Fan Jian , Wang Ming-Ming , Liu Yu-Ping 
Published: January 2018

AbstractPenetrating sacral injuries are very rare, but foreign bodies that penetrate the sacrum often cause pain, cerebrospinal fluid leakage, and neurological symptoms. Careful preoperative medical and imaging examinations, determining the position of the foreign body, and surgical exploration are essential in the management of such cases. We present the case of a woman who visited our emergency department with a broken sewing needle in her sacrum. The incident occurred when the patient accidentally sat on the needle while sewing by hand. Pain while sitting was the main clinical finding after the accident. The patient was treated successfully by surgical exploration aided by a permanent magnet. At follow-up a few months later, she was symptom-free. In clinical practice physicians often encounter patients with metallic foreign bodies. Permanent magnets play an important role in the removal of metallic foreign bodies, and emergency department physicians should master the methods and techniques.
The Paradigm of Cyberporn On Legal Culture and Religion Perspective
Authors: Angkupi Prima 
Published: January 2018

Indonesia as the largest Muslim country should ideally have a society with good legal culture. Criminal offense or a violation related to cyberporn, does not need to happen. Cyberporn crime is not only a legal issue, but it is more complex. The weakness of the legislation, as well as the technological advances that are supported by the low legal awareness of society, it will difficult to tackle the cyberporn crime. The role of religion is needed as ethical teachings. Indonesia, which recognizes the principle of the Deity as its first principle, mean idealizing the condition of religious society. Awareness of the law will also be easily formed in communities that implement the teachings of their religion well, including public awareness for not accessing the cyberporn. : Indonesia sebagai Negara umat muslim terbesar idealnya memiliki masyarakat dengan budaya hukum yang baik. Tindak pidana atau bentuk pelanggaran yang berkaitan dengan cyberporn tidak perlu terjadi. Kejahatan cyberporn tidak hanya merupakan permasalahan hukum, tetapi lebih kompleks. Kelemahan peraturan perundang-undangan serta kemajuan teknologi yang didukung dengan kesadaran hukum masyarakat yang sangat rendah mengakibatkan akan sulit menanggulangi kejahatan cyberporn. Peran agama dibutuhkan sebagai sebuah ajaran etika. Indonesia yang mengakui sila Ketuhanan sebagai sila pertamanya, berarti mengidealkan kondisi masyarakat Indonesia yang religius. Kesadaran terhadap hukum pun juga akan mudah dibentuk dalam masyarakat yang mengamalkan ajaran agamanya dengan baik, termasuk kesadaran masyarakat untuk tidak mengakses cyberporn.

Existence of Clemency as President Prerogative Right (Comparison Study of Indonesia with Countries of the World)
Authors: . Fathudin , Kharlie Ahmad Tholabi 
Published: January 2018

The debate about the existence of clemency as a prerogative of the president stems from the understanding that the rights is coming independently from the authority and without any branches of power. In this context, the comparative study of the constitutional norms in some countries in the world related to the norm of clemency is important to read the tendency of other countries about clemency rules. This study shows that the constitutional norm of countries in the world basically has the same tendency in the application of clemency by the president; there is involvement of other branches of power. Some constitutions of the world call the recommendation, hearing, information, consultation, advice, in accord, concurrence (approval) and others. The involvement of other branches of power in the grant of pardon does not mean reducing the authority of the president (prerogative), but it has become a tendency in almost all modern states to embrace the system of government power within the framework of public accountability. The term prerogative of the president (absolute) in practice is no longer absolute and independent. Perdebatan sepuar eksistensi grasi sebagai hak prerogatif presiden berpangkal pada pemahaman yang menyebut bahwa suatu hak disebut sebagai hak prerogatif presiden jika kewenangan yang lahir dari hak tersebut bersifat khusus dan mandiri tanpa adanya keterlibatan cabang kekuasaan lain. Dalam konteks ini, kajian perbandingan terutama terhadap norma konstitusi di beberapa negara di dunia terkait dengan norma tentang grasi menjadi penting untuk memotret kecenderungan yang dimiliki negara-negara lain dalam hal pengaturan tentang grasi. Kajian ini menunjukan bahwa norma konstitusi negara-negara di dunia pada dasarnya memiliki kecenderungan yang sama dalam penerapan pemberian grasi oleh presiden, yakni ada keterlibatan cabang kekuasaan lain. Beberapa konstitusi negara-negara di dunia menyebut keterlibatan tersebut dengan menggunakan ragam istilah seperti recomandation, hearing, inform, consultation, advice, in accordance, conccurance (persetujuan) dan lain-lain. Adanya keterlibatan cabang kekuasaan lain dalam mekanisme pemberian grasi bukan berarti mereduksi kewenangan presiden (hak prerogatif), tetapi memang menjadi kecenderungan hampir di semua negara-negara modern untuk menganut sistem pemerintahan yang berusaha menempatkan segala model kekuasaannya dalam kerangka pertanggungjawaban publik, sehingga istilah hak prerogatif presiden (sacara mutlak) dalam prakteknya tidak lagi bersifat mutlak dan mandiri.

Integration of Mobile Devices to Facilitate Patient Care and Teaching During Family-Centered Rounds
Authors: Byrd Angela S. , McMahon Pamela M. , Vath Richard J. , Bolton Michael , Roy Melissa 
Published: January 2018

OBJECTIVES:
The increasing prevalence of mobile devices in clinical settings has the potential to improve both patient care and education. The benefits are particularly promising in the context of family-centered rounds in inpatient pediatric settings. We aimed to increase mobile device usage by inpatient rounding teams by 50% in 6 months. We hoped to demonstrate that use of mobile devices would improve access to patient care and educational information and to determine if use would improve efficiency and perceptions of clinical teaching.

METHODS:
We designed a mixed-methods study involving pre- and post-implementation surveys to residents, families, and faculty as well as direct observations of family-centered rounds. We conducted rapid cycles of continual quality improvement by using the Plan-Do-Study-Act framework involving 3 interventions.

RESULTS:
Pre-intervention, the mobile computing cart was used for resident education on average 3.3 times per rounding session. After cycle 3, teaching through the use of mobile devices increased by ∼79% to 5.9 times per rounding session. On the basis of survey data, we determined there was a statistically significant increase in residents’ perception of feeling prepared for rounds, receiving teaching on clinical care, and ability to teach families. Additionally, average time spent per patient on rounds decreased after implementation of mobile devices.

CONCLUSIONS:
Integration of mobile devices into a pediatric hospital medicine teaching service can facilitate patient care and perception of resident teaching by extending the utility of electronic medical records in care decisions and by improving access to knowledge resources.

Published: January 2018

OBJECTIVES:
To describe variation in the care of children hospitalized with orbital cellulitis and to determine associations with length of stay (LOS), emergency department (ED) revisits, and hospital readmissions.

METHODS:
By using the Pediatric Health Information System, we performed a multicenter, retrospective study of children aged 2 months to 18 years with a primary International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification discharge diagnosis code for orbital cellulitis from 2007 to 2014. We assessed hospital-level variation in the use of diagnostic tests, corticosteroids, and antibiotics individually and in aggregate for association with outcomes (LOS, ED revisits, readmissions) after risk-adjusting for important clinical and demographic factors.

RESULTS:
A total of 1828 children met inclusion criteria. Complete blood cell counts (median [interquartile range]: 81.8% [66.7–89.6]), C-reactive protein levels (57.1% [22.2–84.0]), blood cultures (57.9% [48.9–63.6]), and computed tomography imaging (74.7% [66.7–81.0]) were the most frequently performed diagnostic tests, with significant variation observed across hospitals (all P &lt; .001). Corticosteroids were used in 29.2% of children (interquartile range: 18.4–37.5). There was significant variation in antibiotic exposure across hospitals (P &lt; .001). Increased total diagnostic test usage was associated with increased LOS (P = .044), but not with 30-day ED revisits (P = .176) or readmissions (P = .403).

CONCLUSIONS:
Children hospitalized with orbital cellulitis experience wide variation in clinical management. Increased hospital-level usage is associated with increased LOS. Our findings highlight a critical need to identify treatment strategies that optimize resource use and outcomes for children hospitalized with orbital cellulitis.

Published: January 2018

OBJECTIVES:Describe the trends in pediatric sedation use over time and determine variation in use of procedural sedation across children’s hospital emergency departments (EDs).METHODS:We analyzed ED data from 35 hospitals within the Pediatric Health Information System for patients &lt;19 years old who received sedation medications and were discharged from 2009 to 2014. Patients with chronic comorbidities or undergoing intubation were excluded. We determined frequency and trends in use of sedation and compared these between EDs. Descriptive statistics with appropriate weighting were used.RESULTS:Of the 1 448 011 patients potentially requiring sedation who presented to the ED, 99 951 (7.9%) underwent procedural sedation. Medication usage in 2014 included ketamine (73.7%), fentanyl and midazolam (15.9%), ketofol (7.3%), and propofol (2.7%). Use of fentanyl and midazolam increased, whereas use of ketamine, pentobarbital, etomidate, chloral hydrate, and methohexital decreased over time. Significant variation exists in the use of sedation across hospitals; in 2014, the sedation rate ranged 0.2% to 32.0%, with a median of 8.0%. The diagnosis with the largest variation in procedural sedation use was dislocation, with sedation rates ranging from 2% to 35%.CONCLUSIONS:There is significant variability across pediatric EDs in the use of procedural sedation, suggesting sedations may be performed too often or too little in some hospitals.
Hospital Variation in Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome Incidence, Treatment Modalities, Resource Use, and Costs Across Pediatric Hospitals in the United States, 2013 to 2016
Authors: Milliren Carly E. , Gupta Munish , Graham Dionne A. , Melvin Patrice , Jorina Maria , Ozonoff Al 
Published: January 2018

BACKGROUND:
The national incidence of neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) has increased with the opioid epidemic in the United States. The impact of pharmacologic treatment on hospital use is not well established. We examined the recent population of neonates with NAS admitted to pediatric hospitals, hospital variation in pharmacologic treatment, and the effect of treatment on resource use during neonatal hospitalization, including length of stay (LOS), readmission, and cost-of-living adjusted hospital costs.

METHODS:
We included inpatients discharged between January 2013 and March 2016 from hospitals in the Pediatric Health Information System. We compared neonates with NAS to those without on demographic, socioeconomic, clinical characteristics and hospital resource use. We also compared neonates with NAS on these characteristics by pharmacologic treatment.

RESULTS:
This analysis included 136 762 neonatal encounters from 23 hospitals. Of these, 2% had a diagnosis of NAS. Compared with other neonates, neonates with NAS had a longer LOS (18.7 vs 2.9 days; P = .004). Average costs per admission were 10 times higher for neonates with NAS ($37 584 vs $3536; P = .003). Of neonates with NAS, 70% were treated pharmacologically with wide variation in hospital rates of pharmacotherapy (range: 13%–90%). Pharmacologically-treated neonates with NAS experienced a longer LOS (22.0 vs 10.9 days; P = .004) than other neonates with NAS. Total costs for pharmacologically-treated neonates with NAS were over 2 times higher ($44 720 vs $20 708; P = .002) than neonates with NAS treated without pharmacotherapy.

CONCLUSIONS:
Neonates with NAS, particularly those treated pharmacologically, have lengthier, more expensive hospital stays. Significant variation in pharmacologic treatment reflects opportunities for practice standardization and substantial reductions in resource use.
