Novice therapists in a developing context: Extending the reach of hand rehabilitation
Authors: van Stormbroek Kirsty , Buchanan Helen 
Published: August 2017

Introduction Hand rehabilitation needs in some parts of the world extend beyond the impact of specialised hand therapists. This study aimed to establish what hand rehabilitation services novice occupational therapists in South Africa were providing; the supports and barriers for such services; and, therapists’ perceptions of being equipped for hand rehabilitation. Methods A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted, and an online questionnaire was sent to all occupational therapists in their first year of practice (n = 240). Data were analysed with Stata 12 and IBM SPSS Statistics, version 21.0. Responses to open ended questions were post-coded. Results A 43.3% response rate was obtained. Participants (n = 104) treated an average of 20 clients requiring hand rehabilitation per month often without adequate equipment (73%). Central nervous system (91.3%), bone and joint (72.8%) and arthritic conditions (72.4%) were treated most frequently. Most participants felt confident (64%) and competent (79%) in hand rehabilitation. Conclusion Participants were undertaking hand rehabilitation that in other contexts is considered to require specialised skills. To ensure quality rehabilitation, supervision and mentoring of novice therapists and appropriate professional development opportunities are required.

Published: August 2017

BACKGROUNDSystematic reviews of non‐randomized controlled trials (RCTs) suggest that using a checklist results in fewer medical errors and adverse events, but these evaluations are at risk of bias.OBJECTIVETo conduct a systematic review of RCTs of checklists to determine their effectiveness in improving patient safety outcomes in hospitalized patients.METHODSOvid EMBASE, Ovid MEDLINE, PubMed, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched from inception until December 8, 2016. The search was restricted to RCTs. Included studies reported patient safety outcomes of a checklist intervention. Data extracted included the study characteristics, setting, population, intervention, outcomes measures, and sample size.MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS11,225 citations were identified, of which 9 (16,987 patients) satisfied the inclusion criteria. Citations reported evaluations of checklists designed to improve surgical safety, prescription of medications, heart failure management, pain control, infection control precautions, and physician handover. Studies reported significant reductions in postoperative complications and medication‐related problems and improved compliance with evidence‐based prescribing of medications, infection control precautions, and patient handover procedures. 30‐day mortality was reported in 3 studies and was significantly lower among patients allocated to the checklist group (odds ratio 0.60, 95% confidence interval, 0.41‐0.89, P = 0.01, I2 = 0.0%, P = 0.573). Methodological quality of the studies was moderate.CONCLUSIONA small number of citations report RCT evaluations of the impact of checklists on patient safety. There is an urgent need for high‐quality evaluations of the effectiveness of patient safety checklists in inpatient healthcare settings to substantiate their perceived benefits.

Published: August 2017

Overdispersion phenomenon and the influence of location or spatial aspect on data are handled using Binomial Geographically Weighted Regression (GWNBR). GWNBR is the best solution to form a regression analysis that is specific to each observation’s location. The analysis resulted in parameter value which different from one observation to another between location. The Weighting Matrix Selection is done before doing The GWNBR modeling. Different weighting will resulted in different model. Thus this study aims to investigate the best fit model using infant mortality data that is produced by some kind of weighting such as fixed kernel Gaussian, fixed kernel Bisquare, adaptive kernel Gaussian and adaptive kernal Bisquare in GWNBR modeling. This region study covers all the districts/municipalities in Java because the number of observations are more numerous and have more diverse characteristics. The study shows that out of four kernel functions, infant mortality data in Java2012, the best fit model is produced by fixed kernel Gaussian function. Besides that GWNBR with fixed kernel Gaussian also shows better result than the poisson regression and negative binomial regression for data modeling on infant mortality based on the value of AIC and Deviance. Keywords: GWNBR, infant mortality, fixed gaussian, fixed bisquare, adaptive gaussian, adaptive bisquare.
Diversidade linguística na universidade pública: um estudo desvelador de estratégias de dominação para a área de política linguística
Authors: Mussi Marcus Vinícius Freitas 
Published: August 2017

Previous research on Language Policy has been a growing target of discussion in the academic environment. In this context, I adopt belief and management dimensions from Spolsky model (2004; 2009, 2012) and the notion of policy devices from Shohamy´s (2006) perspective in order to analyse university students and professor´s discourse about linguistic diversity. The instruments used for data collection were exploratory study and participant observation for the researcher, interview with professors and survey with students. It is predominantly a qualitative research, whose main aim was to identify beliefs about linguistic diversity and possible discursive strategies of domination. The discourses revealed divisions about linguistic diversity and accent, although almost unanimously the participants answered that they have already suffered linguistic prejudice. However, the biggest contribution of this work was about the identification of discursive strategies of linguistic domination: the sarcasm, linguistic association to social condition of the region, and repetition.

Abstract: Introduction: In their previous works, the authors reported findings from familial hematologic malignancies in Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg county, Hungary. So far there are no other studies on this topic available in Hungary. Aim: Detailed analysis of epidemiologic features of hematologic malignancies of siblings. Method: During a 34-year period (between January 1, 1983 and December 31, 2016), 86 families with hematologic malignancies were recorded in Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg county. Among them, 19 cases of the affected siblings were registered. Results: In one family there were three sisters with polycythaemia vera, hence the number of analysed disease associations was 21. In all of the 21 cases, the younger sibling’s disease developed earlier. The average anteposition was 10.8 (1–33) years (median: 10 years). Conclusion: The anticipation was earlier observed in multigeneration hematological malignancies between direct and collateral descendants. On the basis of the above data, anteposition of the disease was observed in younger siblings. Orv Hetil. 2017; 158(33): 1283–1287.

Virtual Worlds (VWs) are media-rich cognitively engaging technologies that geographically dispersed organizations can use as a cost effective workplace collaboration tool. Using a sharing information in virtual worlds environment, the aims of this study is to investigate cognitive absorption within individual beliefs about the technology of virtual worlds use. Cognitive absorption, theorized as being exhibited through the five dimensions of temporal dissociation, focused immersion, heightened enjoyment, control, and curiosity, is posited to be a proximal antecedent of two important beliefs about technology use: perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. A model, based on Bandura's Social Cognitive Theory, was developed to test number of variables as the antecedents of cognitive absorption, which include social factor and individual like familiarity and personal innovativeness.A sample of 218 respondents participated in the research. In informing the results, the study utilized the partial least square model with the support for SmartPLS 2.0 software. Our findings suggest that beliefs about VWs usage can be influenced by cognitive absorption. Significant relationships were found between familiarity and cognitive absorption, and between personal innovativeness and cognitive absorption. Theoretical and practical implications are offered.

Aim. To characterize clinical presentation of hepatitis A on the background of chronic hepatitis B.
Methods. The study was conducted in 2012-2015 in Saint Petersburg Clinical infectious diseases hospital n.a. S.P. Botkin. Retrospective analysis of 259 medical records of in-patients diagnosed with hepatitis A was conducted on random samples. Etiology of the disease was confirmed with ELISA test for serological markers of hepatitis A, B and C.
Results. Etiological structure of hepatitis A-mixed: combination of hepatitis A + chronic hepatitis B - 74.0%, hepatitis A + chronic hepatitis B + chronic hepatitis C - 11.0%, hepatitis A + chronic hepatitis C - 8.0%, hepatitis A + chronic hepatitis of unknown etiology - 7.0%. Age differences in the groups of patients with hepatitis A were revealed: mono- and mixed infections (35.5±11.74 and 40.7±13.72 years, respectively; р=0.026). Hepatitis A had moderate course regardless of infection with other hepatotropic viruses but in 1 patient with chronic hepatitis B resulting in cirrhosis severe course of the disease lead to death. Clinical presentation of hepatitis A as mono- and mixed infection was characterized by typical symptoms. Changes in blood chemistry in mixed infection were characterized by higher cytolytic activity, hypoalbuminemia, lesser decrease of urea level.
Conclusion. In the etiological structure of mixed hepatitis combination of hepatitis A and chronic hepatitis B was predominant; in most cases hepatitis A had moderate course but in superinfection more severe course of the disease can be observed - up to lethal outcome.

This study was aimed at describing what kinds of thematic progression patterns mostly employed by the students, describing how to apply thematic progression theory and personal blog in the sentence-based writing class, and finding out whether the use of thematic progression theory and personal blog give positive significances to coherence of the students’ sentences. This is an action research study employing two cycles. The subject of the study was 24 students of group 2, in a class of sentence-based writing (SBW), and the object of the study was students’ sentences created by the students in the teaching and learning process (TLP). The result of the study shows that thematic progression patterns moslty employed by the students are constant theme pattern followed by zig zag and multiple theme patterns. In TLP, the materials were devided and given to the students in two cycles. The first cycle focused on introducing the thematic progression theory and its kinds of patterns. Then, in the next cycle the students focused on sharing ideas with other classmates via individual blogs. Based on the result of the study, teaching SBW using thematic progression theory gives its positive significance by varied patterns used by the students. It can be seen from the analysis of the students’ sentences from pretest, paragraf 1, paragraf 2, paragraf 3 and posttest. The students also give positive responses upon its teaching and learning process using thematic progression and personal blogs based on the pre and post test questionnaire data. It is hoped that the result of the study gives positive contribution to the students in preparing them to write in bigger contexts - paragraph-based writing, genre-based writng and academic writing in the next coming semesters.
