Perdagangan internasional merupakan salah satu faktor yang mempengaruhi pertumbuhan ekonomi Indonesia dan sarana untuk melakukan transaksi pertukaran barang dan jasa internasional. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk menganalisis proporsi migas dan nonmigas pada neraca perdagangan, menganalisis rasio perdagangan internasional (RPI), dan menganalisis kinerja pemerintah dalam perdagangan internasional untuk meningkatkan pertumbuhan ekonomi. Jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian kepustakaan dan menggunakan data sekunder. Hasil penelitian didapatkan pada analisis proporsi migas dan non migas terlihat bahwa ekspor migas pada tahun 2020 mengalami penurunan dari tahun 2019 yaitu sebesar 1,97%. Penurunan ini terjadi karena imbas adanya pandemi Covid-19 yang mengakibatkan terganggunya aktivitas industri dan perdagangan baik di dalam maupun di luar negeri. Pada tahun 2021 sampai dengan tahun 2023 ekspor migas mengalami kenaikan., hal ini karena pertumbuhan ekonomi negara tujuan utama yang sudah mulai membaik. Analisis RPI terlihat bahwa rasio sektor migas dari 2019 sampai dengan 2023 bernilai negatif, didominasi oleh impor. Sedangkan untuk sektor non migas pada tahun 2019 didominasi ekspor maupun impor, nilai hampir sama/berimbang (mendekati nol). Pada tahun 2020 sampai dengan tahun 2023 untuk sektor nonmigas bernilai positif artinya didominasi oleh ekspor. Kinerja pemerintah pada perdagangan internasional dapat terlihat pada neraca perdagangan, dimana pada tahun 2019-2023 selalu mengalami surplus, meskipun terjadi perlambatan ekonomi.

Voluntary turnover of high achievers: A systems psychodynamics analysis with CIBART
Authors: McComb Calum B. , Barnard Antoni 
Published: August 2024

Orientation: Voluntary turnover is a costly and frequently disruptive organisational phenomenon, particularly when it involves high achievers.Research purpose: The study aimed to develop a psychodynamic exposé of voluntary turnover by applying the conflict, identity, boundaries, authority, roles and task (CIBART) model to the lived experiences of high achievers.Motivation for the study: The research primarily focusses on voluntary turnover as an individual, rational decision-making process. It recognises the contribution of unconscious systems psychodynamics to voluntary turnover. Research conducted from this perspective is necessary to gain a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the topic.Research approach/design and method: Seven case studies of individual voluntary turnover were conducted in a large private retail company. Data were collected using free association narrative (FANI) interviews. The analysis of the data was guided by hermeneutic phenomenology, and the interpretive frame used was the CIBART model.Main findings: Six themes were constructed to describe the conflict dynamics along each of the six CIBART dimensions. Within each theme, the conflict dynamic is exposed, revealing the subsequent anxiety and defences that accumulate leading to the decision to leave. Ultimately, the six themes synthesise to propose that voluntary turnover is a conscious manifestation, yet an unconscious defence against system-wide conflict.Practical/managerial implications: Facilitating leaders’ understanding and processing of the conflict dynamics that occur across the CIBART dimensions, and which contribute to voluntary turnover, create opportunities for both transformation and prevention.Contribution/value-add: The research offers insights into the psychodynamics of voluntary turnover, which consulting psychologists and organisational leaders can utilise to address this phenomenon within their work groups.

Published: August 2024

Background:
Feeding behavior is an important factor in the prevention and management of noncommunicable diseases, which are the leading cause of death globally.

Objective:
This study is aimed to investigate the feeding behaviors among health-care workers in a tertiary hospital in southeast Nigeria.

Materials and Methods:
The study was a cross-sectional survey. A total of 418 participants (186 males and 232 females) were involved in the study. The instrument is a sociodemographic questionnaire and a modified form of the British Heart Foundation's questions to assess the nutritional value of individuals. The participants were consecutively recruited from their workstations. Data were collected using self-administered questionnaires, which were hand distributed and collected back on the same day after completion.

Results:
The study showed that health workers in the teaching hospital had an overall “fair” feeding behavior (86.13 ± 8.52 out of 140). It also showed that females had a significant (P < 0.05) overall better feeding behavior (88.15 ± 9.00) compared to males (83.62 ± 7.18). The studied participants had poor feeding behavior in carbohydrates and fats and oil consumption and just fair behavior in fruits and vegetables, salt intake, and water consumption. The feeding behavior was inadequate, and there was no significant gender or profession-related differences in the overall behavior of the participants.

Conclusion:
The health-care workers in the tertiary health institution in southeast Nigeria have inadequate feeding behavior. They should join in the global call and awareness on healthy feeding behavior to prevent and reduce the burden of noncommunicable diseases.
Tuberculosis Stigma

Published: August 2024

Context:
Tuberculosis (TB), though preventable and curable, remains a global health problem, ranked one of the top causes of death worldwide, despite the World Health Organization's strategies. This may be due to the stigma surrounding the disease.

Aim:
This study assesses TB stigma in light of knowledge, attitudes, and preventive practices among individuals in an urban community.

Settings and Design:
This was a descriptive, cross-sectional study among 317 residents of Surulere, Lagos, Nigeria, selected by multi-stage sampling.

Subjects and Methods:
Data were collected using a pretested, semi-structured, interviewer-administered questionnaire and analyzed using Epi InfoTM version 7.2.2.6 2018 (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Atlanta, Georgia, USA).

Statistical Analysis Used:
Descriptive variables were summarized as frequencies, and the Chi-square test was used to test the associations. The level of significance was predetermined at P ≤0.05.

Results:
Most participants were between the age group of 21 and 40 years. Approximately 9 out of every 10 respondents (91.8%) were aware of TB. Overall, only 2.4% of respondents had good knowledge of TB, more than half (59.1%) had positive attitudes toward TB, about one-third (37.1%) had good preventive practices and 22.7% of respondents expressed TB stigma, 63.6% would show no compassion or desire to help people with TB while 64.3% would rather people with TB were never employed. However, good knowledge translated into less stigma (P <0.001).

Conclusions:
Most participants were aware of TB, although knowledge, attitude, and practice levels were poor. Knowledge was found to reduce TB stigma, reinforcing the need for improved community literacy regrading TB. This has the potential to influence health-seeking behavior and promote better TB prevention, detection, and treatment outcomes.
“COVID-19 vaccination and the mentally ill” – A comparative study on knowledge and attitude toward COVID-19 vaccine between patients with mental illness and their caregivers from Southern India
Authors: Pushpalal Gargi , Muruganandam Partheeban , Subramanian Karthick , Balasundaram Sivaprakash 
Published: August 2024

Abstract

Background:
Patients with mental illness are at an increased risk of contracting COVID-19 infection. Hence, there is a need to understand their awareness, attitude, and willingness to accept the novel COVID-19 vaccine as well as of their caregivers. Our study aimed to find the differences in knowledge, attitude, and perceptions of patients with mental illness and their caregivers toward the COVID-19 vaccine.

Methodology:
A cross-sectional comparative study was conducted among patients with clinically stable psychiatric illness and their age-matched caregivers at a tertiary hospital. A validated questionnaire was used to check their knowledge, attitude, perception, and motivation toward the COVID-19 vaccine. Assessment of functioning was made using the global assessment of functioning scale.

Results:
Four hundred and sixteen individuals were included (208 in each group). There was no statistically significant difference between patients and caregivers regarding knowledge scores. Patients with anxiety disorders showed higher mean knowledge scores, and those with substance use disorders showed lower mean knowledge scores. Majority of the patients were not aware of the name of the vaccine (60%) but were willing to take the vaccine (76%), felt vaccination to be safe (69%), agreed that the vaccine will be protective (71%) and believed that despite vaccination, COVID precautions have to be followed (89%).

Conclusion:
The knowledge, attitude, and willingness toward the COVID-19 vaccine were similar across patients and caregivers in contrast to expectations. Patients with substance use disorders must be given more information, with emphasis on vaccination implementation. Importantly, improving the caregivers’ awareness can further improve the vaccination rate among this vulnerable population.

Published: August 2024

Abstract

Background:
Detection of variations or abnormalities in antenatal fetal ultrasound scans helps in planning further follow-up and intervention. Sometimes, finding soft markers could alarm anxious families. Systematic studies on clinically relevant outcomes would aid in prognostication, allay anxieties and help in designing reporting templates.

Methodology:
This retrospective study included pregnancies that were flagged with any fetal ultrasound finding by the high-risk obstetrics department during the study period. We studied the proportion of those with any one of adverse fetal/neonatal outcomes (AFNO): (a) fetal loss (b) neonatal death; or who required (c) surgical intervention (d) neonatal intensive care support (e) periodic follow-up related to the finding. A descriptive analysis of findings and specific AFNO were also conducted.

Results:
Of 1495 scans, 495 had at least 1 ultrasound finding. Complete details of primary outcome were available for 360 pregnancies; 60 (16.7%) had AFNO. Most common were cardiac echogenic focus (19.5%), prominent cavum vergae (12.6%), urinary tract dilatation (9.3%), and choroid plexus cyst (8.9%). The above-isolated findings had good outcomes (AFNO in 4.6%). Overall, AFNO were noted in 12.7% of those with single findings. Brain anomaly, omphalocele, and hydrops had poor outcomes. With 2 and 3 findings in combinations, 22.1% and 44.4% had AFNO, respectively.

Conclusions:
AFNO were noted in 16.7% of those with any fetal ultrasound finding. When expectant families are informed about specific isolated soft markers (echogenic cardiac focus, cavum vergae, echogenic bowel, hypoplastic nasal bone, choroid plexus cyst, single umbilical artery) clinicians may also reassure the low association of AFNO.
A comparative study to see the outcome in patients suffering from fissure-in-ano following modified closed lateral internal sphincterotomy, closed lateral internal sphincterotomy, and fissurectomy
Authors: Ghose Sivaji Sankar , Chowdhury Mili Das , Dharmamer M. Y. 
Published: August 2024

Background:
The present study was undertaken to evaluate the comparative results of “Modified Closed Lateral Internal Sphincterotomy (LIS), Closed LIS, and Fissurectomy” technique in treating fissure-in-ano in terms of relief of symptoms, healing of wound, postoperative hospital stay, recurrence rate, and postoperative complications.

Materials and Methods:
A total of 120 cases with definite history of fissure and clinically diagnosed cases of fissure-in-ano were selected for the study. A final diagnosis was made after proctoscopic examination under anesthesia during operation. The type of procedure which was to be undertaken was done by letting patient pick up slips randomly where the name of the procedure was written. Total 120 slips were made with 40 slips of each procedure written in them. Postoperative period was closely monitored, and all the cases were meticulously followed for a variable period of time.

Results:
In the present study, 68% of the patients were male and 32% were female. It was more prevalent in the age group of 18–40 years. Forty patients underwent modified closed LIS, 40 underwent closed LIS, and remaining 40 patients underwent fissurectomy. Postoperative pain, operative time, duration of hospital stay, and recurrence rate were compared.

Conclusion:
Fissure-in-ano is a very painful condition and may cripple the daily activity of the patient. Encouragingly, high success rates were achieved in our patients with the modified closed LIS technique.

Published: August 2024

Abstract

Background:
Adolescents’ COVID-19 vaccination (15–18 years) was advised by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare to protect the vulnerable group against COVID-19 infection and reduce the severity of the illness. The information on the pattern of adverse events following immunization (AEFI) following COVID-19 vaccination among adolescents is not available in the Indian population. This study aimed to assess the pattern of AEFI following COVID-19 vaccination among 15–18-year adolescents in the Union Territory of Puducherry and identify the various remedial measures to manage the encountered AEFIs and their impact on the AEFI.

Methodology:
A questionnaire-based cross-sectional study was conducted in government, government-run, and private schools after obtaining necessary approval from the concerned in Pondicherry. A pretested and content-validated questionnaire consisting of demographic details of the participants, name of the COVID-19 vaccine, number of doses taken, various AEFI, onset of symptoms and its duration, various remedial measures employed, and details of AEFI reported was utilized for the study. Responses were obtained either through Google Forms or by administering the questionnaire in person. Data were entered in MS Excel, and analysis was performed using SPSS. Frequency and percentage were used to represent the categorical data. Mean and standard deviation were used to represent the quantitative data. The Chi-square test/Fisher’s exact test was used to find the association between the categorical data. P <0.05 was considered as statistically significant.

Results:
About 75.7% of recipients received Covaxin, 22.4% received Covishield, and 1.9% received other vaccines. About 96.9% said that they encountered adverse events following vaccination. The most common adverse event reported was pain at the injection site, tiredness, fever, myalgia, headache, hypersomnia, and joint pain. Less common adverse events, such as insomnia, vertigo, giddiness, nausea, and vomiting, were also reported by the participants. Fever (P < 0.001), headache (P < 0.001), joint pain (P < 0.05), and giddiness (P < 0.01) were significantly more among Covishield recipients than Covaxin recipients. There was a statistically significant absence of AEFI and also fewer symptoms among boys when compared to girls. Duration of AEFI among girl participants was 2.43 ± 1.799, which was significantly (P < 0.001) more than the boys 2.03 ± 1.798. None of the study participants reported AEFI to the health-care authority.

Conclusion:
Information obtained in the study shows that COVID-19 vaccination is relatively safer in the adolescent population also with minimal adverse events similar to adults.
