Published: June 2024

<p>Work experience is an essential part of gaining the experience and skills needed for post-graduate employment. They provide students with valuable work experience, access to professional networking, and the opportunity to explore different career opportunities. They open themselves and their minds to gain new knowledge and adapt to a new environment. Only if the company does and appreciates all their hard work, this is certainly a positive value. However, companies in Indonesia rarely appreciate the hard work during internship by giving them either low remuneration or no remuneration at all. There are a number of regulations under Indonesian law that explain the rights and responsibilities of interns, that is, they have rights that are protected by the state, which includes the right to compensation. Several questions arise when this issue is raised. What are Indonesian regulations regarding rights and obligations of interns and companies? What is international best practice regarding placements? In order to avoid underpayment of interns, what is the way forward for Indonesia in this area?</p><p>Keywords: </p><p>Keywords: Remuneration, Students, Indonesian Law</p>

Published: June 2024

Alpha-amylase plays a critical job in metabolic homeostasis. Appraisal of alpha-amylase activity in metabolic disorders, for example, obesity and diabetes are important. The current investigation was meant to evaluate the relationship of alpha-amylase activity with C-reactive protein in obesity and diabetes. Alpha-amylase activity along with different biochemical markers like glucose level, triglyceride, total cholesterol, C-responsive protein, and creatinine level were analyzed in healthy, obese, and diabetes populations. In obese and diabetes, a significant deviation (p<0.05) was seen in the degree of biochemical markers including blood glucose, lipid profile, C-reactive protein (CRP), creatinine, and alpha-amylase action when compared with healthy volunteers. The alpha-amylase activity was found to be strongly associated (p< 0.01) with Body Mass Index (BMI), blood glucose level, and duration of diabetes Thus, it can be stated that alpha-amylase can initiate a cross-linking mechanism between BMI and blood glucose level facilitating the propensity of obesity and diabetes. Moreover, alpha-amylase indicated a positive correlation with CRP, a marker for inflammation, proposing a complex job in mediating inflammation in obesity (r= 0.486, p < 0.01) and diabetes (r=0.507, p<0.01). Serum creatinine was demonstrated as an insignificant positive correlation with alpha-amylase activity in obesity and type-2 diabetes. Alpha-amylase can be considered as a significant hazard factor in the pathogenesis of obesity and diabetes-related complications.

Published: June 2024

Hypertension is one of the major cardiovascular diseases leading to serious health consequences including cardiovascular events such as stroke and even death. These may also include significant damages to the body’s most organs like heart, kidneys and brain. This deadly disease requires proper treatment drugs with lower cost and fewer adverse effects. In this study, Ficus religiosa fruit has been selected as a candidate plant and its fruit extract was used to perform different pharmacological tests in hypertensive rat model. It was observed that the extract decreased the heart rate (HR), systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) moderately in comparison to deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA) in ethanol‑induced hypertensive rats. These effects were similar to that of atenolol, a standard antihypertensive drug. While testing liver function, it was seen that SGOT and SGPT levels were reduced significantly. The creatinine value was decreased to 0.43±0.2 U/L from 2.9±1.3 U/L (induced by DOCA) and 2.6±1.6 U/L (induced by ethanol). While observing cardiovascular parameters, the fruit extract given at dose of 400 mg/kg, lowered total Cholesterol (TC) to 97 mg/dl from 176 mg/dl, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) to 40 mg/dl from 75 mg/dl and Triglycerides (TG) to 61 mg/dl from 118 mg/dl. The increased values were induced by DOCA. In the same test, the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) was increased to 80 mg/dl from 44 mg/dl. These changes were comparable to those of the standard drug Atenolol. F. religiosa fruit contains different chemical constituents such as isofucosterol, leucopelargonidin, quercetin and beta sitosterol as reported earlier. Molecular docking studies with some of these constituents showed good binding affinity with the targeted protein (receptor) as compared to the standard drugs. Additionally, all the compounds have satisfied Lipinski’s rules and other pharmacokinetic parameters. Moreover, they showed no adverse effects in aquatic and non-aquatic environments. We, thus, conclude that F. religiosa fruit extract could be taken for the discovery of a safe alternative for managing hypertension.

O objetivo do trabalho é realizar uma investigação experimental dos efeitos dos solutos na microestrutura e propriedades mecânicas na solidificação unidirecional ascendente de ligas binárias hipoeutéticas de alumínio em condições transientes de extração de calor. Bem como, gerar modelos matemáticos empíricos para contribuir com o desenvolvimento dos processos de solidificação e de seus produtos. Utilizando-se uma metodologia quantitativa, experimental e laboratorial, foram plotadas as curvas de resfriamento, as quais permitiram extrair os parâmetros térmicos como taxa de resfriamento, velocidade de solidificação, gradiente térmico e tempo de solidificação local. A liga Al-Cu possui maior condutividade térmica, logo apresentou resultados experimentais superiores de parâmetros térmicos quando comparada com as ligas Al-Si e Al-Ni. Foram determinadas, também, leis experimentais de desenvolvimento microestrutural associando os espaçamentos dendríticos com as posições dos termopares, microdureza e módulo de elasticidade. Inferindo-se, assim, a dependência da microdureza com os espaçamentos dendríticos primários e solutos. Em contrapartida, os espaçamentos entre os braços primários parecem não afetar os módulos de elasticidade. Por outro lado, houve um aumento considerável nos valores do módulo de elasticidade com a liga Al-5% em peso de Ni, cerca de 120% em relação à liga Al-5% em peso de Cu e 18% sobre a liga Al-5% em peso de Si.

Introdução: O câncer de mama é a causa mais frequente de morte na população feminina, tal doença desencadeia muitos sintomas decorrentes de momentos estressantes. Seu tratamento traz consequências sociais e emocionais, dentre eles, o sono é diretamente afetado devido a todo o processo da enfermidade. Objetivo: Avaliar a qualidade do sono de mulheres mastectomizadas após o câncer de mama. Metodologia: O tipo de estudo é observacional, descritivo, analítico, de corte transversal e de caráter quantitativo. Como critérios de inclusão estão mulheres mastectomizadas pós câncer de mama na faixa etária de 18 a 59 anos. Como exclusão, mulheres com linfedema, reconstrução mamária e distúrbios cognitivo. Foram aplicados o questionário clínico e sociodemográfico e o Índice de Pittsburgh (PSQI). Resultados: Amostra de 130 participantes. A má qualidade do sono prevaleceu em mulheres na faixa etária de 41 a 50 anos, raça/cor branca, profissionalmente ativas, que praticam atividade física às vezes, realizaram a mastectomia unilateral. Se tratando do PSQI, 9,2% apontaram um sono “bom”, 46,9% sono “ruim” e 43,8% “distúrbio do sono”. E a ocorrência de distúrbio do sono é mais comum nas mulheres profissionalmente inativas. Conclusão: A escasssez de estudos na literatura foi um fator ewstritivo na presente pesquisa. Contudo, sabendo que a má qualidade do sono interfere de forma negativa na vida dessas mulheres, mais estudos na área se fazem necessário para contribuir nas intervenções com embasamento científico.
Reframing AIDS Narratives: New Perspectives on AIDS in Positive and Voices
Authors: Metwalli Ashraf Said Qutb , Zayed Mohamad El-Sebaey Ibrahim ,  Gadallah Mahmoud Sobhi Mohamed , Mohamed Talaat Farouq 
Published: June 2024

The present paper investigates the shift in fictional representation of AIDS as manifested in Michael Saag’s Positive: One Doctor’s Personal Encounters with Death, Life, and the US Healthcare System and Susan Ball’s Voices in the Band: A Doctor, Her Patients, and How the Outlook on AIDS Care Changed from Doomed to Hopeful. It explores how the two novels, through their fresh and vivid representation of the patients, redress relevant stereotypes through a semi-documentary, fictional revisiting of their winding routes. It also covers the ways both novels portray the very process of the disease contraction and treatment, and the patients’ attempts to cope with it in a balanced manner that invests the documentary as a strategy for braiding the scientific and the literary in the representational process. The overall purpose is not to normalize the disease but rather to help deconstruct the stereotypical image of it in mainstream media and revisit the negative historical, social, and religious associations of it through the selected novels. For this purpose, the "docu-literary" approach is used as an analytical and evaluative critical method to explore the representation of AIDS in the selected novels.

Published: June 2024

ObjectiveThis study aims to apply different machine learning (ML) methods to construct risk prediction models for pulmonary embolism (PE) in hospitalized patients, and to evaluate and compare the predictive efficacy and clinical benefit of each model.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective study involving 332 participants (172 PE positive cases and 160 PE negative cases) recruited from Guangdong Medical University. Participants were randomly divided into a training group (70%) and a validation group (30%). Baseline data were analyzed using univariate analysis, and potential independent risk factors associated with PE were further identified through univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Six ML models, namely Logistic Regression (LR), Decision Tree (DT), Random Forest (RF), Naive Bayes (NB), Support Vector Machine (SVM), and AdaBoost were developed. The predictive efficacy of each model was compared using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and the area under the curve (AUC). Clinical benefit was assessed using decision curve analysis (DCA).ResultsLogistic regression analysis identified lower extremity deep venous thrombosis, elevated D-dimer, shortened activated partial prothrombin time, and increased red blood cell distribution width as potential independent risk factors for PE. Among the six ML models, the RF model achieved the highest AUC of 0.778. Additionally, DCA consistently indicated that the RF model offered the greatest clinical benefit.ConclusionThis study developed six ML models, with the RF model exhibiting the highest predictive efficacy and clinical benefit in the identification and prediction of PE occurrence in hospitalized patients.

Published: June 2024

BackgroundWhile aldosterone plays an important role in blood pressure regulation, its role in essential hypertension (EHT) remains unclear. Here, we systematically investigated the secretion of biologically-active free aldosterone in saliva in response to awakening (AldAR) and during the day (AldDay) in EHT compared to normotensive controls (NT).MethodsIn 30 men with EHT and 30 age-matched NT, AldAR saliva samples were collected immediately after awakening and 15, 30, 45, and 60 min thereafter and AldDay samples were collected from 08:30–22:00 h on two consecutive days.ResultsOver the course of the day, men with EHT had higher repeated AldDay levels compared to NT (p = .002) with higher concentrations in the morning hours (p's ≤ .047), a steeper decline over the course of the day (p's ≤ .018), and similar concentrations in the evening (p's ≥ .21). Regarding AldAR, we observed higher concentrations in EHT at awakening (p = .017) and borderline higher concentrations at 15 min (p = .086). No differences were found 30–60 min after awakening (p's ≥ .34). Analyses with repeated and aggregated AldAR levels resulted in borderline significantly higher free aldosterone in EHT (p's ≤ .077). Complementary analyses confirmed linear associations between higher blood pressure and higher AldAR and AldDay levels.ConclusionsOur data point to elevated salivary free aldosterone secretion in EHT over the course of the day, particularly in the morning hours. As the free aldosterone fraction is considered biologically active, our data may point to a biological mechanism underlying EHT.

Published: June 2024

BackgroundPatients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) are exposed to a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, especially cardiovascular calcification. The present research aimed to analyze the clinical features and coronary artery calcium score (CACS) in MPN patients, and construct an effective model to predict acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in MPN patients.Materials and methodsA total of 175 MPN patients and 175 controls were recruited from the First Affiliated Hospital of Ningbo University. Based on cardiovascular events, the MPN patients were divided into the ACS group and the non-ACS group. Multivariate Cox analysis was completed to explore ACS-related factors. Furthermore, ROC curves were plotted to assess the predictive effect of CACS combined with white blood cells (WBC) and platelet for ACS in MPN patients.ResultsThe MPN group exhibited a higher CACS than the control group (133 vs. 55, P &lt; 0.001). A total of 16 patients developed ACS in 175 MPN patients. Compared with non-ACS groups, significant differences in age, diabetes, smoking history, WBC, percentage of neutrophil, percentage of lymphocyte, neutrophil count, hemoglobin, hematocrit, platelet, lactate dehydrogenase, β2-microglobulin, and JAK2V617F mutation were observed in the ACS groups. In addition, the CACS in the ACS group was also significantly higher than that in the non-ACS group (374.5 vs. 121, P &lt; 0.001). The multivariable Cox regression analysis identified WBC, platelet, and CACS as independent risk factors for ACS in MPN patients. Finally, ROC curves indicated that WBC, platelet, and CACS have a high predictive value for ACS in MPN patients (AUC = 0.890).ConclusionCACS combined with WBC and platelet might be a promising model for predicting ACS occurrence in MPN patients.
