Published: June 2024

COVID-19 antigen is an alternative test for detecting SARS-CoV-2 infection. Viral load represented by the Cycle Threshold (CT) in the Real-Time Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (rRT-PCR) affects the diagnostic performance of the test. Higher CT values result in reduced sensitivity of the SARS-CoV-2 antigen. The main objective of this study was to determine the highest CT value in rRT-PCR that still yielded reactive results in the COVID-19 antigen test. This cross-sectional study was conducted at the Fever Outpatient Clinic in Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital from July 2020 to June 2021. Two hundred and thirty-five naso-oropharyngeal swabs were taken from patients with confirmed and suspected COVID-19 diagnoses. About 24.7% of subjects were tested positive. The median highest CT value giving reactive COVID-19 antigen results was 28.22 (13.33-39.16), while the median CT value for non-reactive antigen results was 34.45 (26.08-39.65). At a CT value < 40, the COVID-19 antigen test demonstrated 63.8% sensitivity, 99.4% specificity, 89.3% Negative Predictive Value (NPV), and 97.4% Positive Predictive Value (PPV). At the CT value < 25, the test showed 92.3% sensitivity, 99.4% specificity, 99.4% NPV, 92.3% PPV, 163.4 LR+, and 0.1 LR-. The identified cut-off point for the CT value was 29.82, with a sensitivity of 64.9% and specificity of 81%. In conclusion, COVID-19 antigen is a valuable test for screening patients with symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Understanding the influence of cycle threshold can enhance the interpretation and reliability of the antigen test.
Performance Evaluation of Semi-quantitative Urine Albumin Creatinine Ratio Using Meditape UC-11A Strip Test
Authors: Sidhartha Elizabeth , Ronald Thoeng 
Published: June 2024

The Urine Albumin/Creatinine Ratio (uACR) is one of the earliest markers of glomerular disorders. A comparative study of semi-quantitative urine uACR and quantitative uACR tests was carried out using Meditape UC-11A test strips on the Sysmex UC-3500 (automated urinalysis instrument) and Roche Cobas 501, respectively. A total of 213 retrospective data of urine chemistry tests were collected. Semi-quantitative urine albumin, creatinine, and uACR data were obtained using Meditape UC-11A strips on Sysmex UC-3500, whereas quantitative data were obtained using Roche Cobas c501. A weighted Cohen's Kappa agreement, sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, and accuracy were analyzed using data from both instruments. The Kappa values for urine albumin, creatinine, and uACR between the semi-quantitative and quantitative methods were 0.83 (CI 0.771– 0.880), 0.535 (CI 0.417–0.652), and 0.691 (CI 0.606–0.775), respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, and accuracy of semi-quantitative methods were 90%, 73.3%, 75%, 89.2%, and 81.2%, respectively. The semi-quantitative uACR test on the UC-3500 showed excellent performance and could be used as a screening test for early detection of impaired kidney function.
The right to choose: A comparative analysis of patient autonomy and body integrity dysphoria among Czech healthcare professionals
Authors: Loriga Leandro 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
The bioethical principle of autonomy is of paramount importance within medical practice. The extent to which a patient’s autonomy overlaps or conflicts with the physician’s duty of beneficence and non-maleficence, however, is not so clear cut, especially for those cases in which the patient’s request for medical intervention goes against the physician’s advice, either because of personal belief or because there is uncertainty regarding the therapeutic approach. Body integrity dysphoria (BID) is a condition that has been included recently in the International Classification of Diseases, 11th edition (ICD-11). It may lead an affected individual to develop an intense desire to remove a specific body part in order to restore congruity between their body and their mind. Thus, its occurrence creates challenging moral and ethical dilemmas for the medical world (Loriga, 2023). The aim of this study was to investigate how Czech physicians understood, assessed and supported patient autonomy regarding requests for invasive body modifications. The objective was to produce a blueprint regarding how much a patient could influence the medical treatment they could gain within the Czech medical system and to develop a comparison with the ethical challenges of BID.
A five-section survey was designed and submitted to Czech physicians on topics relevant to the BID debate. On the surface, the results showed an apparent predisposition toward collaboration between doctors and patients. However, further investigation showed that this supposed collaboration crumbled as the physiological risk-reward ratio moved further toward risk, which caused physicians progressively to rely less on the patient’s opinion and psychological needs. Moreover, a strongly authoritarian approach was evident, which became overwhelming in cases of amputation requests and removed, a priori, any collaboration. The results indicate that the Czech medical system does not accept or comprehend fully patients’ psychological needs, and therefore the BID phenomenon is a long way from being understood, which requires a fundamental paradigm shift.
Philosophy of values and ethics in Ayn Rand’s axiological objectivism
Authors: Švihura Lukáš Arthur 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
The paper presents an analysis and interpretation of axiology and ethics as seen by the writer and philosopher Ayn Rand. The author follows the assumption that, in a situation where indifference is observed with regard to values (cf. Simmel, Sloterdijk), a return of philosophical reasoning to the idea of objectivity of values could be worthwhile. Therefore, he examines a specific type of axiological objectivism that can be found in Rand’s work. In the present paper, the suggested comparison with Baden neo-Kantism as well as phenomenological axiology serves to capture the specifics of Rand’s axiological approach. These lie in placing emphasis on such a relationship between facts and values in which values result from the facts of reality, as well as in the very understanding of the objectivity of values that Rand identifies with long-term life goals and identifies them as an objective necessity for an individual’s life. Following the analysis of Rand’s axiology, the author focuses on her understanding of ethics, which he places in contrast to Kant’s deontology, as well as morality, which he views through the prism of a business relationship based on the exchange of values. The aim of the paper is to, by means of an analysis and interpretation of Rand’s ideas, show that objective values can be understood as a necessary prerequisite for consequential ethics and an individual living a happy life without being anchored in transcendence or social consensus.
Bioethics of pandemics and disasters within the context of public health ethics and ethics of social consequences

Published: June 2024

Abstract

Introduction: Public health ethics addresses moral dilemmas arising from balancing individual healthcare needs with societal interests. Ethical considerations in public health during pandemics and disasters aim to reduce mortality rates and minimize social injustice through fair principles.

Objective: This paper analyzes public health ethics and ethical values in allocating resources during mass casualty incidents. The intersection of public health ethics, applied bioethics, and ethics of social consequences (through non-utilitarian consequentialism) guides addressing serious public health challenges in catastrophic scenarios. The application of the given interaction is significant for professional medical ethics.

Methodology: The paper employs inductive, deductive, and normative methods of bioethics and the methodology of ethics of social consequences.

Conclusion: The paradigmatic disparity between the bioethics of pandemics and disaster bioethics lies in the fluid application of bioethical principles and the accentuation of utilitarian demands depending on the severity and scale of mass casualty incidents. Applied bioethics in crisis situations respects the approaches of public health ethics and attempts to increase positive social outcomes. The application of (scarce) resource allocation criteria and triage of patients is derived from ethical decisions beneficial to public health and lege artis approaches of medical bioethics. The paper presents professional and ethical criteria for medically inappropriate treatment within the framework of patient triage; we approach crisis ethics from the perspective of maximization of benefit. Age is not an exclusion criterion of acute healthcare provision in crisis situations. Ethics of social consequences as a form of non-utilitarian consequentialism allowing for social consequences bridges public health ethics and applied bioethics.
PROTOTIPE ALAT NOTIFIKASI PENGGANTIAN OLI PADA SEPEDA MOTOR BERBASIS SENSOR HALL DAN MIKROKONTROLER ESP32

Published: June 2024

The engine oil on a motorcycle serves to lubricate the components in the motorcycle engine to prevent damage. Therefore, it is necessary to change the engine oil of a motorcycle regularly to ensure that the performance of the motorcycle remains good. However, many motorcycle users often forget to change the oil. As a result, a prototype was developed in research to serve as a motorcycle oil change notification device that can help users change the oil at the right time. The oil change parameter on this device is based on the motorcycle's travel distance. The travel distance of the motorcycle is converted from the rotation of the wheel, which is read by a Hall sensor. This device uses an ESP32 microcontroller as a processing component. When the distance measured by the hall sensor has reached the predetermined limit, the alarm on the device will be activated, indicating that the oil needs to be changed. This device is also equipped with a DS18B20 temperature sensor to measure the motorcycle engine temperature. The results of the distance, temperature, and oil change notifications are displayed on an LCD. The results of the test showed that the average error of the Hall sensor reading was 0.245% and the average error of the sensor DS18B20 reading was 1.155%. The test results also showed that the device designed to trigger the oil change notification on a motorcycle had a success rate of 100%.
Abstrak
Oli pada sepeda motor berfungsi untuk melumasi komponen-komponen pada mesin sepeda motor agar tidak mengalami kerusakan. Oleh karena itu, oli sepeda motor perlu diganti secara rutin agar performa sepeda motor tetap baik. Namun banyak dari pengguna sepeda motor seringkali lupa untuk melakukan penggantian oli. Oleh karena itu pada penelitian dibuat sebuah prototipe yang berfungsi memberikan notifikasi penggantian oli mesin sepeda motor yang dapat memudahkan pengguna untuk mengganti oli sesuai dengan waktunya. Parameter penggantian oli pada alat ini dilakukan berdasarkan jarak tempuh sepeda motor. Jarak tempuh sepeda motor ini merupakan hasil konversi dari putaran roda yang dibaca oleh sensor Hall. Alat ini menggunakan mikrokontroler ESP32 sebagai komponen pemroses. Ketika jarak yang telah diukur oleh sensor Hall telah mencapai batas yang ditentukan maka alarm penggantian oli berupa buzzer pada perangkat akan berbunyi yang menandakan bahwa oli sudah seharusnya untuk diganti. Alat ini juga dilengkapi dengan sensor DS18B20 sebagai pengukur suhu atau sensor suhu mesin sepeda motor. Hasil pengukuran jarak, suhu, dan notifikasi penggantian oli ditampilkan pada LCD. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa rata-rata error dari hasil ukur sensor Hall adalah 0,245% sedangkan rata-rata error hasil ukur sensor suhu adalah 1,155%. Hasil pengujian sistem ini juga menunjukkan bahwa alat yang dirancang memiliki tingkat keberhasilan dalam menampilkan notifikasi penggantian oli mesin pada sepeda motor sebesar 100%.
Perspectives of medical undergraduate students toward self-directed learning
Authors: Kiran M. , Hema N. G. 
Published: June 2024

Objectives:
Self-directed learning (SDL) is a process in which individuals take the initiative with or without the help of others in diagnosing their learning needs, formulating goals, identifying human as well as material resources for learning, implementing appropriate strategies and evaluating learning outcomes. In SDL, the onus of learning is on the learner and learning control is slowly transferred from facilitator to learner. Hence, this study helped to understand the SDL readiness in undergraduate medical students and figure out whether it differed between students of 2nd and 3rd professional years.

Materials and Methods:
The study was conducted on undergraduate medical students of 2nd and 3rd professional year of tertiary care medical college hospital in south India after receiving permission from the Institutional Ethics Committee. A total of 285 students were considered in this study from both years after informed consent. A pre-validated questionnaire of the self-rating scale for SDL (SRSSDL) tool was included, and it comprised five components, namely, awareness, learning strategy, learning activity, evaluation and interpersonal skills, with 12 questions in individual sections. Demographic data were expressed in percentages while the Chi-square test and independent sample Mann–Whitney U-test were applied to understand the differences between 2 professional years.

Results:
Out of 285 students, 56.8% had a moderate level of readiness, followed by a high level of readiness (42.9%). The majority of the students from both academic years had a moderate level of readiness toward SDL. Learning strategy had the highest mean response score of 3.7 ± 0.52, followed by awareness with 3.69 ± 0.49. This mean score reflects that the majority of participants’ responses recorded were either ‘sometimes’ or ‘often’ for various components of the SRSSDL tool. The distribution of awareness, learning strategy, learning activities, evaluation and interpersonal skills did not show any significant association across academic years and gender.

Conclusion:
The moderate level of readiness shows that areas of improvement must be identified and evaluated with teacher guidance when necessary. The SRSSDL tool can be used as a measure of evaluation, as it helps to classify student readiness toward SDL.

Published: June 2024

<p>El objetivo de este trabajo es aislar el efecto causal del tipo de violencia y de la situación de la pareja sobre la propensión de la víctima a denunciar la violencia familiar. Para ello, se analizan datos del Banco Nacional de Datos e Información sobre Casos de Violencia contra las Mujeres (Banavim). Nuestra propuesta es doble: primero, balancear la muestra mediante Coarsened Exact Matching (CEM); y segundo, estimar el efecto del tratamiento en los tratados en la muestra (SATT). Probamos 21 tratamientos en 15 tipos de violencia. Nuestros resultados muestran que la violencia económica hace menos probable la denuncia; éste es un resultado que no consta en la literatura previa. También mostramos que la violencia física y económica moderan mutuamente sus efectos sobre la denuncia, y que vivienda rentada, no afiliación a seguro social y agresor que no trabaja predicen que la víctima acudirá a las autoridades. El lugar donde ocurre el episodio es relevante para explicar la denuncia de violencia psicológica.</p>
