Authors: Fang Min , Han Tuo , Wang Jiajia , Li Honghong , Li Zhile , Zhou Jing 
Published: August 2023

Objective:
The objective of the study is to investigate awareness of COVID-19 and the psychological health of college students who were quarantined in dormitories due to the outbreak of COVID-19 and to provide guidance for schools and education departments when publicizing remoting knowledge of epidemic prevention and control and providing psychological counseling for students.

Subjects and Methods:
From January 9 to 12, 2022, 780 questionnaires, asking about transmission routes and protective measures against COVID-19, were collected from college students who were quarantined in the dormitory of Yan'an University due to the impact of the epidemic. Moreover, the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales 21 scale and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index scale were used to evaluate college students' stress, anxiety, depression, and sleep quality.

Results:
(1) The awareness level and knowledge of epidemic prevention and control among college students from different degree courses were equivalent. College students with urban household residency had a higher awareness of epidemic prevention and control than those living in rural areas. (2) Among the 780 college students, 170 (21.79%) felt stressed; 194 (24.87%) were anxious; 150 (19.23%) people showed depression. (3) Correlation analysis found: (1) Family background: Students with urban household residency are more likely to experience depression (r = −0.090, P < 0.05). (2) Learning status: Anxiety and depression are related to academic performance (r = 0.081, 0.121, P < 0.05). (3) Daily schedule: Sleep quality and schedule are associated with stress, anxiety, and depression (r-sleep = 0.196, 0.204, 0.226, P < 0.05; r-rest = 0.491, 0.458, 0.431, P < 0.05).

Conclusion:
During the COVID-19 epidemic, college students who were isolated in dormitories had different perceptions of the epidemic due to their different family backgrounds. At the same time, psychological problems such as stress, anxiety, and depression in the isolation period were related to family background, study status, and daily work and rest patterns.

Authors: Iti Jannatbi L. , Kadeangadi Deepti M. 
Published: August 2023

Abstract

BACKGROUND:
The evolution of Medical learning shows the incorporation of modern technology in teaching, learning, assessment, and medical practice. Clickers are easy to use, and provide instantaneous feedback on the student’s comprehension of the information given. The aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness of clickers in undergraduate medical students’ learning by comparing clickers’ scores with group discussion scores.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:
A cross-sectional comparative study with cross-over design was conducted for 6 months on 80 students of Phase III Part I MBBS. After an interactive lecture on diarrhea with a community medicine perspective, the students were divided into two groups, A and B, each consisting of 40 students. Group B students were further divided into five subgroups of eight students each. Group A students were assessed with clickers, Group B with group discussion and the cross-over done after 2 weeks. A questionnaire was used to assess the perceptions of the students on the use of clickers. Academic performance scores of the students were compared within the groups at different times (i.e. immediately after the interactive lecture and after 1st week and 2nd weeks) and between the two main groups. Data analysis was performed using SPSS. Mean and standard deviations were calculated for quantitative variables, whereas categorical data was presented as frequencies and proportions. Qualitative data was analyzed using content analysis technique.

RESULTS:
The mean age of students was 20.4 (SD=0.6) years. The mean scores for the students using clickers were significantly higher than the mean scores for the students using group discussion. Most of the students (78.8%) either agreed or strongly agreed that the “clickers were easy to use.”

CONCLUSION:
The study concluded that the academic performance of medical undergraduate students using clickers was better than the performance of the students using group discussions.

Abstract

BACKGROUND:
The implementation of Sharia Model Childbirth (SMC) is in accordance with Fatwa Majelis Ulama Indonesia (MUI) no l07/DSN-MUI/X/2016 on the practice of sharia principles in health services. Sharia services in hospitals are general. This SMC innovation is specific and comprehensive, covering prenatal, delivery and postnatal. This model was implemented in 2017 but has never been qualitatively evaluated. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the application of SMC in the maternity services from the perspective of midwives and staff of the Islamic service unit.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:
Applied qualitative research was conducted from 5 December 2021 to 31 January 2022. In-person in-depth interviews were conducted using semi-structured interview guidelines. Informants were taken from the midwives of the maternity room and the Islamic service installation until a fair saturation of data was achieved. Observational and documentation were conducted for the validity of the data. The data were analyzed thematically and presented in themes and sub-themes.

RESULTS:
The results of the study were on the work procedures implemented, and the obstacles and shortcomings found. Most of the procedures and accompanying regulations had been implemented. Participants revealed obstacles and shortcomings in this innovative program. The major obstacle found was that the patient’s right to choose a female medical officer was not fulfilled because of the type of teaching hospital it was and the lack of female medical staff. The shortcomings were in the reading of prayers and remembrances, the understanding of the contents of the manual, and the design of the delivery room, which did not maintain privacy.

CONCLUSION:
Overall, SMC is being implemented, but there are obstacles and shortcomings in the implementation. Solutions and regulations in sharia services should urgently be found and enforced. The deficiencies in this innovative program must be corrected immediately.

Published: August 2023

Abstract
Despite the numerous reports of cutaneous manifestations associated with vaccines for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), the relationship between COVID-19 vaccines and cutaneous side effects remains unevaluated. In this review, we examine these manifestations and their management. Reported dermatoses included injection-site reaction (early and delayed), type I allergic reaction, morbilliform eruption, pityriasis rosea, Sweet syndrome, lichen planus, psoriasis, herpes zoster reactivation, erythema multiforme, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). The most common COVID-19 vaccination-related cutaneous manifestations are delayed local reactions, approximately 66% of which are associated with the Moderna vaccine, and 33% with the Pfizer vaccine. Aside from mild injection-site reactions, severe reactions include anaphylaxis and TEN. Most reactions, except for Stevens-Johnson syndrome and anaphylaxis, though unpredictable and unpreventable are mild and can be treated symptomatically. Findings from this review should allow primary care physicians and dermatologists to reach faster diagnosis and initiate prompt intervention.

Abstract

BACKGROUND:
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has proven to be detrimental to the psychological well-being of healthcare providers (HCP). This study was a psychological intervention during the COVID-19 pandemic to check extent to which brief mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) and progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) affect psychological well-being, resilience, and anxiety of HCPs.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:
A randomized trial study conducted from July to August 2020. One hundred and forty-seven COVID-19 frontline HCPs were randomized to a 2-week virtual intervention with a brief MBI or a PMR. Pre- and postintervention assessments were done using the State-Trait Anxiety–20-Item Scale, the Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale-10, and WHO-5 Well-Being Index.

RESULTS:
The final sample included 125 HCPs (64 in BMI group and 61 in PMR group) who completed pre- and post-intervention assessment. The results showed a significant improvement in the psychological well-being and reduction of the state anxiety of the two groups, but not in the trait anxiety or resiliency. Improvement was more in the group’s brief MBI (81.3%) than in the group’s PMR (51.8%) (P = 0.0001), concerning psychological well-being.

CONCLUSION:
Both the brief MBI and PMR improved the psychological well-being and reduced the anxiety of frontline healthcare providers during the COVID-19 pandemic with a slightly better improvement in the brief MBI.

Towards a Phenomenology of Shakespeare’s Sky
Authors: Gillies John 
Published: August 2023

This paper begins with a phenomenological analysis of the sky as understood by early modern beholders via its synonyms: ‘sky’, ‘welkin’, ‘element’, ‘vault’, ‘heavens’, and ‘firmament’. These words fall into roughly two categories. The first group conveys the experiences of the sky through primary perceptions of seeing, sensing or breathing. To recall the distinction between ‘apprehension’ and ‘comprehension’ in Midsummer Night’s Dream, they apprehend the sky as an immense, mysterious, and unapproachable domain resistant to human incursion, rather than comprehending it as an object of knowledge. By contrast, the second group are comprehending words dependant on concepts originating in Aristotelian and Ptolemaic cosmology. While all six words might have functioned roughly as synonyms of each-other throughout the period, the gap between the two groups becomes progressively wider until the new Galilean philosophy of c.1610. The paper goes on to explore the response to this gap in Shakespeare even though he is not normally considered to have been (in Empson’s words) a ‘space man’ like his contemporary Donne. It concludes by suggesting that in Shakespeare (primarily Hamlet) the perception of the visible sky was negatively impacted by the skepticism and anxiety leeching down from what Marjorie Hope Nicholson once called ‘the breaking of the circle’.
Deictic Strategies in KamaNu and Karimi’s Kimeru Song and Dance Lyrics
Authors: Editor8 Section 
Published: August 2023

Purpose: This paper examined the deictic strategies in the Kimeru song and dance lyrics by KamaNu and Karimi by assessing how the deictic properties of these song and dance lyrics express the main issues. The study utilized the aspects of Van Dijk’s (2008) ideological square as a component of his socio-cognitive approach to critical discourse analysis (CDA).
Methodology: The study adopted a qualitative approach using descriptive research design in particular a case study. Research was carried out in Meru and Nairobi counties in Kenya. The target population consisted of native Meru artists and their fans. Two native Meru artists, a male and a female, namely: KamaNu and Karimi were purposively sampled as a corporate item. Twelve songs six from each of the artists were picked on popularity basis and that they had a traditional tinge and contained deictic content that were relevant to the study. Data was collected through six video recordings, semi-structured interviews and note taking of the actual live performances in social functions; three for each artist to enable the researcher get verbatim data and songs without any alterations, as well as save time.
Findings: The study established that Kimeru song and dance lyrics by KamaNu and Karimi, through polarization of Us and Them, employ a cocktail of both simple and complex strategies to cater for people of all ages for purposes of understanding the intended meaning, while saving one’s face and as such smoothly transmits the societal ideals.
Unique contribution to theory, policy and practice: The study recommends that listeners pay more attention to these diectic strategies for an appropriate interpretation of the intended meaning as they enable the speaker identify with the situation making listeners incline towards the music since it elevates the speaker on a pedestal of the informer and all knowing (Atoh, 2017). Secondly, the audience should discern the meaning of these expressions in accordance to the context under which they are used. There is therefore need for the policy makers to incorporate song and dance lyrics in the school curriculum as a technique of language teaching as well as preserve our cultural heritage through documentation for posterity
DISCURSOS DE ÓDIO CONTRA NEGROS NAS REDES SOCIAIS
Authors: Barreto Luciana 
Published: August 2023

O objetivo deste trabalho é apresentar parte da pesquisa que desenvolvi na dissertação de mestrado ao analisar e descrever a organização discursiva e o funcionamento social dos discursos de ódio contra negros nas redes sociais, com o intuito de ofertar caminhos para combatê-los. Fizemos um breve histórico do movimento negro no país e as políticas de reparação, conquistas dos últimos tempos que levaram a uma polarização da sociedade brasileira na atual conjuntura. E refletimos sobre o ódio, o que é o discurso de ódio, como agem personagens no ambiente da web, a legislação sobre o tema do ódio na internet e quais são os caminhos para combatê-lo. Passamos então a observar os discursos sob a ótica da análise do discurso (AD), ligando à conjuntura social, histórica e econômica brasileira. Como referencial teórico, esta pesquisa faz uso do conceito de dialogismo de Bakhtin (1997) e entende o ódio como um sistema de exclusão, conforme nos ensina o filósofo francês Cornelius Castoriades (1992). Trabalhamos também o conceito de raça como uma construção discursiva, de Stuart Hall (2006) e tensionamos raça e classe, com Kabengele Munanga (2012). Por último, oferecemos alguns caminhos ou possibilidades de combate aos constantes ataques aos negros brasileiros considerando as características da análise dos discursos que apontaram para uma tentativa de desumanização da população negra, o desprezo pelo continente africano, a exaltação do mérito como conquista do branco em contraponto à falta de esforço da população preta e o ataque constante à estética negra. Nossa proposta de combate aos discursos de ódio se inspira em programas como o Teaching Tolerance, nos Estados Unidos, que foi motivador para este trabalho e sobre o qual iniciamos nossa reflexão.

Published: August 2023

Esse estudo, aqui apresentado em artigo, procurou discutir os reflexos da Lei de Drogas número 1.343/06 no Brasil a partir da leitura das seguintes categorias de análise: a categoria biopolítica do filósofo, historiador das ideias, teórico social e professor francês Michel Foucault e categoria necropolítica do filósofo, teórico social, historiador e professor universitário camaronês Achille Mbembe, destacando a política repressiva de combate às drogas do Estado brasileiro e o poder de seus agentes de controle sobre a vida social, especificamente, direcionada às vidas das pessoas negras, isto é, pretas e pardas, segundo classificação do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE) a partir da autodeclaração. A pesquisa presente, por ser de cunho exploratório e bibliográfico, buscou também evidenciar, através de uma leitura crítica da realidade, a concepção contemporânea do conceito “droga” para além do debate sobre o racismo, correlacionando-a com o contexto de encarceramento em massa, a tragédia prisional brasileira. Atentando-se aos dados advindos do Departamento Nacional Penitenciário do Brasil/ Ministério da Justiça e Segurança Pública e à análise da Lei de Drogas nº 1.343 de 23 de agosto de 2006, objetivou-se destacar as lacunas presentes nessa Lei e seus efeitos no destino da população negra (preta e parda) nesse contexto.

Epistemologias da África e suas diásporas em uma jornada pelo espaço da linguagem, da arte, da literatura e da tradução
Neste volume, encontram-se textos que ecoam muitas e diferentes vozes ancestrais: da origem das Linguagens, da Filosofia, da Literatura, da Astronomia, do Direito, da Medicina, das Matemáticas, da Física (absoluta ou quântica, saber ancestral), dos campos e das cidades. Tem-se, aqui, o grito de mais de 10 milhões de seres humanos que foram sequestrados, torturados, estuprados, desumanizados e escravizados por mais de 400 anos em nome do avanço de uma nova e arrogante ciência. Uma ciência que desprezou e negligenciou saberes fundamentais para a evolução humana; que não tendo dela se apropriado, a fragmentou (JAMES, 1954) ao ponto de estarmos, hoje, tentando “adiar o fim do mundo” (KRENAK, 2019). Láròyè! Estamos a tempo de desobstruir os canais de comunicação da chamada “racionalidade instrumental moderna”, que sustentou no ocidente o paradigma da universalidade do conhecimento científico, legitimando, assim, um único marco epistemológico supostamente passível de ser aplicado em todas as sociedades. Independentemente de suas singularidades culturais, históricas e linguísticas, agiu-se em nome de uma ideologia de emancipação local, fundada na “incontestável” experiência teórica produzida em uma pequena província cultural do mundo: a Europa (DUSSEL, 1993; QUIJANO, 2003). A tempo, reitera-se, de evitar o colapso de ecossistemas pela compreensão de epistemes cuja base é a sustentabilidade, como a Ética Ubuntu dos povos bantu da África Negra. Láròyè! Sim, esta também é a TRAMA e o esforço de permitir que o atraso que representou e representa o etnocentrismo e o racismo para a humanidade, seja superado (Ki-ZERBO, 2010) porque a compreensão é a única garantia do progresso, do avanço moral e intelectual humano (MORIN, 2011). Láròyè!

Las unidades de trasplante de precursores hematopoyéticos deben conocer su perfil epidemiológico con el fin de ajustar los protocolos de antibiótico en neutropenia febril. Objetivo: describir los aislamientos microbiológicos relacionados con los eventos de neutropenia febril de una serie de casos de pacientes con mieloma múltiple durante la hospitalización por trasplante autólogo de precursores hematopoyéticos. Métodos: se realizó un análisis descriptivo de datos retrospectivos de una serie de 62 pacientes con neutropenia febril, hospitalizados por trasplante autólogo de precursores hematopoyéticos durante el periodo comprendido entre el 1° de enero del 2020 y junio del 2021. Resultados: el 50 % de los pacientes tuvo un foco infeccioso documentado, de los cuales el 70.9 % fue por prueba microbiológica positiva y el restante por razón clínica. De aquellos identificados por laboratorio, la bacteriemia fue el principal foco (19/62), seguida por la gastroenterocolitis (9/31). De los microorganismos aislados en hemocultivo el más frecuente fue S. epidermidis (14/19). Conclusiones: la mitad de los pacientes con neutropenia febril presentaron foco infeccioso documentado, la mayor parte bacteriemia por cocos Gram positivos coagulasa negativa, con baja prevalencia de gérmenes Gram negativos y de hongos. Independiente del subtipo de aislamiento hubo una baja prevalencia de desenlaces adversos en este grupo de pacientes.
