Authors: Liana Ulwiyah Wahdah Mufassirin , Arif Muhammad 
Published: August 2024

Movement increases along with population growth and economic improvement each year. However, this is not supported by adequate transportation infrastructure, which can lead to congestion and traffic flow. The congestion of Samarinda during peak hours. One such location is Anang Hasyim Street, which has several schools along the road, including Cordova Elementary and Junior High School, SMPN 1, and SMAN 1 Samarinda. Traffic is evident during school hours, both morning and afternoon, along with an increase the number of vehicles and pedestrians. This situation leads to decline in the performance of the road segment. Road performance is a quantitative measurement that describes the conditions occurring on a road segment and serves as a parameter for road performance. This primary data such as road geometric data, traffic volume, and vehicle delays over a specific segment length. Traffic surveys were conducted over three days Monday, February 26, 2024, and Friday and Saturday, March 1-2, 2024. The survey were from 06:30-07:30 WITA,12:00-13:00 WITA, and 15:30-16:30 WITA. The analysis is based on PKJI 2023 and traffic flow simulation using PTV Vissim. The traffic results for 2024 shows the capacity of Anang Hasyim Street is 2968.154 pcu/hour, with the highest vehicle on Monday being 3079.75 pcu/hour and a degree of saturation 0.501 (LoS type A), and side friction of 500.8 incidents per hour. Meanwhile, the forecast for 2034 indicates the capacity remains 2968.154 pcu/hour, vehicle volume of 2202.83 pcu/hour, a degree of saturation 0.74 (LoS type B), and side friction of 563.33 incidents per hour.
Regulatory Body Perspectives on Complaints and Disciplinary Action Processes for Health Professionals
Authors: Foong-Reichert Ai-Leng , Houle Sherilyn K.D. , Grindrod Kelly A. 
Published: August 2024

ABSTRACT:

Background:
Previous Canadian reviews of physician, pharmacist, and dentist disciplinary action have noted differences in discipline outcomes across professions and provinces. The objective of this study was to compare the disciplinary action process across provinces and professions, and to describe the perspectives of health professional regulatory bodies on the disciplinary action process.

Methods:
Participation from medicine, pharmacy, nursing, and dentistry registrars or complaints directors from 10 Canadian provinces was sought. One-on-one, semi-structured interviews were conducted by telephone or video call.

Results:
Nineteen interviews with regulators were conducted—8 pharmacy, 5 nursing, 5 medicine, and 1 dentistry. Complaints and discipline processes followed a similar overall pathway with some differences. Differences in process were largely due to differences in health regulation legislation and were noted across professions, across provinces, and within a province. Participants tended to be more aligned with regulators within their province rather than regulators of the same profession across the country.

Conclusion:
To our knowledge, this paper is the first to describe Canadian health professional regulatory body perspectives on the complaints and discipline process. More research is needed to better understand the factors that affect discipline outcomes and to ultimately improve complaints and discipline processes.
What Could (Or Should) Be the Regulatory Response to the Wicked Problem of Climate Change?
Authors: Austin Zubin , Háji Aly 
Published: August 2024

ABSTRACT:
Sociologists define “wicked problems” as issues confronting humanity that have no clear right answer or perspective. The issue of climate change is a wicked problem of our age—and an issue that few regulators have explicitly addressed within their remit. The polluting effects of health care work itself have recently been highlighted as a call to action within health professions to address climate change issues more forcefully. Perspectives on how and why regulators should—or should not—prioritize climate change in their activities can be difficult to articulate. An approach to this issue that focuses on appropriate and proportionate use of regulatory levers is essential. Processes to allow for greater transparency in discussions, decision making, and strategic plan development are important for regulators to consider. While regulatory bodies vary in their statutory ability or organizational capacity to lead or address climate change directly within their profession, opportunities may exist to partner with other groups to develop evidence-informed options for practitioners.

Design and simulation of scaffolds with lattice microstructures for bioprinting bone tissue
Authors: Zuñiga-Aguilar Esmeralda , Ramírez-Fernández Odin , Botello-Arredondo Adeodato 
Published: August 2024

BACKGROUND: Tissue engineering seeks to improve, maintain, or replace the biological functions of damaged organs or tissues with biological substitutes such as the development of scaffolds. In the case of bone tissue, they must have excellent mechanical properties like native bone. OBJECTIVE: In this work, three geometric models were designed for scaffolds with different structure lattices and porosity that could be biomechanically suitable and support cell growth for trabecular bone replacement applications in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine to the proximal femur area. METHODS: Geometries were designed using computer-aided design (CAD) software and evaluated using finite element analysis in compression tests. Three loads were considered according to the daily activity: 1177 N for slow walking, 2060 N for fast walking, and 245.25 N for a person in a bipedal position. All these loads for an adult weight of 75 kg. For each of them, three biomaterials were assigned: two polymers (poly-glycolic acid (PGA) and poly-lactic acid (PLA)) and one mineral (hydroxyapatite (HA)). 54 tests were performed: 27 for each of the tests. RESULTS: The results showed Young’s modulus (E) between 1 and 4 GPa. CONCLUSION: If the resultant E is in the range of 0.1 to 5 GPa, the biomaterial is considered an appropriate alternative for the trabecular bone which is the main component of the proximal bone. However, for the models applied in this study, the best option is the poly-lactic acid which will allow absorbing the acting loads.

Published: August 2024

Background: Lewy body dementia (LBD) is the second most common neurodegenerative dementia in the US, presenting unique end-of-life challenges. Objective: This study examined healthcare utilization and care continuity in the last year of life in LBD. Methods: Medicare claims for enrollees with LBD, continuously enrolled in the year preceding death, were examined from 2011–2018. We assessed hospital stays, emergency department (ED) visits, intensive care unit (ICU) admissions, life-extending procedures, medications, and care continuity. Results: We identified 45,762 LBD decedents, predominantly female (51.8%), White (85.9%), with average age of 84.1 years (SD 7.5). There was a median of 2 ED visits (IQR 1–5) and 1 inpatient stay (IQR 0–2). Higher age was inversely associated with ICU stays (Odds Ratio [OR] 0.96; 95% Confidence Interval [CI] 0.96–0.97) and life-extending procedures (OR 0.96; 95% CI 0.95–0.96). Black and Hispanic patients experienced higher rates of ED visits, inpatient hospitalizations, ICU admissions, life-extending procedures, and in-hospital deaths relative to White patients. On average, 15 (7.5) medications were prescribed in the last year. Enhanced care continuity correlated with reduced hospital (OR 0.72; 95% CI 0.70–0.74) and ED visits (OR 0.71; 95% CI 0.69–0.87) and fewer life-extending procedures (OR 0.71; 95% CI 0.64–0.79). Conclusions: This study underscored the complex healthcare needs of people with LBD during their final year, which was influenced by age and race. Care continuity may reduce hospital and ED visits and life-extending procedures.

BackgroundAlthough the association between tuberculosis (TB) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) has been reported in several studies and is explained by mechanisms related to chronic inflammation, few studies have comprehensively evaluated the association between TB and CVD in Korea.MethodsUsing the Korea National Health and Nutrition Survey, we classified individuals according to the presence or absence of previous pulmonary TB was defined as the formal reading of a chest radiograph or a previous diagnosis of pulmonary TB by a physician. Using multivariable logistic regression analyses, we evaluated the association between the 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disorder (ASCVD) risk and TB exposure, as well as the 10-year ASCVD risk according to epidemiological characteristics.ResultsAmong the 69,331 participants, 4% (n = 3,101) had post-TB survivor group. Comparing the 10-year ASCVD risk between the post-TB survivor and control groups, the post-TB survivor group had an increased 10-year ASCVD risk in the high-risk group (40.46% vs. 24.00%, P &lt; 0.001). Compared to the control group, the intermediate- and high-risk groups had also significantly increased 10-year ASCVD risks (odds ratio [OR] 1.14, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.04–1.23 and OR 1.69, 95% CI 1.59–1.78, respectively) in the post-TB survivor group. In the association of CVD among post-TB survivors according to epidemiologic characteristics, age [adjusted OR (aOR) 1.10, 95% CI 1.07–1.12], current smoking (aOR 2.63, 95% CI 1.34–5.14), a high family income (aOR 2.48, 95% CI 1.33–4.62), diabetes mellitus (aOR 1.97, 95% CI 1.23–3.14), and depression (aOR 2.06, 95% CI 1.03–4.10) were associated with CVD in the post-TB survivor group.ConclusionsOur study findings suggest a higher 10-year ASCVD risk among TB survivors than healthy participants. This warrants long-term cardiovascular monitoring and management of the post-TB population.
