Authors: Piscesco Pijar , Afriana  
Published: September 2023

This descriptive qualitative study identified the expressive acts in Bohemian Rhapsody movie 2018. The theory from Martinez (2013) was utilized to examine the different types of expressive acts in the data source. Then, an observational approach and a non-participation technique were used to collect data for this research. The data was then evaluated using two methods. Those were pragmatic identity and pragmatic competence in equalizing. The researchers discovered 15 utterances that made by the characters in the movie Bohemian Rhapsody. Based on the character’s utterances, there were 5 different types of expressive acts. There were 2 acts that indicated the congratulating, 5 acts that indicated the thanking, 4 acts that indicated the apologizing, 1 act that indicated the condoling, and 3 acts that indicated the boasting. Furthermore, among the 15 utterances that had been discovered, the act of thanking became the most prominent among the other types of expressive acts.

The purpose of this research was to determine the maxim that violated in the movie “The Lion in Winter”. The characters in the movie were chosen as the data source that has a high probability of violating the maxims. This study used Grice (1989) theory to analyse the types of maxim violation. The method in this research applied the descriptive qualitative method from Creswell (2009). Then, the researchers used the non-participatory technique because the researchers did not include in the event. The pragmatic identity from Sudaryanto (2015) was included to analyse the data. In addition, this research found four type of maxim violation from the data source. Those were 7 data in maxim of quantity, 3 data in maxim of quality, 4 data in maxim of relation and 4 data in maxim of manner.
AN ANALYSIS OF THEMES THAT BUILD ON C.S. LEWIS’S NOVEL " THE LION, THE WITCH, AND THE WARDROBE"
Authors: Wahana Balqis Majesty , Johan Mhd. 
Published: September 2023

ABSTRACT
The aim of the study was to identify and analyze the literature. This research will focus on analyzing one of the intrinsic elements, namely theme. Thus, this study aims to analyze and describe the themes contained in the Novel “The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe”, written by C. S. Lewis. The researcher chose to use a sociological approach in the process of literary criticism of this novel. The researcher will analyze the themes in the novel from a sociological perspective. Because literature itself is a reflection of society and social life is what gives birth to literature, therefore the two cannot be separated. According to Peck and Coyle, writers are moralists, and they observe and study the relationship between individuals and society and present their ideas about how people should behave but it would be too simplistic to say that the important thing about their novels is the message they convey (1986).

EVALUATION OF LUBUKLINGGAU CITY GOVERNMENT IN BREAKING THE CHAIN OF COVID-19 TRANSMISSION
Authors: WAHYUNI HIKMAH WAHYU 
Published: September 2023

The Covid-19 pandemic has not only had an impact on public health, but has also affected the economic conditions, education and social life of the Indonesian people. Based on data from the National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB), the number of positive patients infected with Covid-19 in Indonesia reached 4,114,334 positive cases of people as of December 31 2021. This pandemic has caused several local governments, especially Lubuklinggau City, to implement a Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB) policy which has implications for limiting community activities, including economic activities, educational activities, and other social activities. This study uses qualitative research. Based on the results of the research, it can be concluded that effectiveness has not been maximized to be implemented. This condition can be seen by the high number of cases of people infected with Covid-19. Second, the efficiency of the policy for handling Covid-19 in Lubuklinggau City is still not related to the budget used and the lack of human resources in the process of handling Covid-19. Third, responsiveness. The implementation of the policy for handling Covid-19, the Government of Lubuklinggau City has not been very responsive to the handling of the Covid-19 pandemic. This can be seen from the slightly late Lubuklinggau City Government making regulations to prevent the spread of Covid-19, such as the recently issued Lubuk Linggau Mayor Regulation No. 31 of 2020 concerning Guidelines for the Implementation of Discipline and Law Enforcement of Health Protocols as an Effort to Prevent and Control Corona in August 2021 which in July 2020 Lubuklinggau City was categorized as a red zone, which means cases of being infected with Covid-19 are very high. Meanwhile, the first case of Covid-19 was detected in Lubuklinggau City in early April 2021.

Authors: Knaepen Lieselotte , Delesie Michiel , Theunis Rik , Gorissen Peter , Vijgen Johan , Dendale Paul , Desteghe Lien , Heidbuchel Hein 
Published: September 2023

IntroductionA multidisciplinary approach is needed for the management of atrial fibrillation (AF) in which the patient has a central role. Smart devices create opportunities to improve AF management. This paper aimed to evaluate the in-house developed AF-EduApp application on its usability, satisfaction, and communication effectiveness with the care team.MethodsDuring a multicenter, prospective randomized controlled trial, 153 AF patients were included in the AF-EduApp study, with a minimum follow-up of 12 months and a maximum follow-up of 15 months if taking oral anticoagulation (OAC). The AF-EduApp contains six main modules: Questionnaires, Education, Measurement data entry, Medication overview with reminders, Appointments, and Communication with the care team. The App focuses on four main goals: (1) to improve AF knowledge, (2) to increase self-care capabilities, (3) electronic monitoring to improve therapy adherence to OAC, and (4) communication with the care team. Patients unable to use the AF-EduApp were assigned to a no-App control group (n = 41) without intervention comparable to the standard care group (SC, n = 346) of the AF-EduCare study.ResultsA total of 152 patients effectively used the App during a mean follow-up of 386.8 ± 108. 1 days (one included patient could not install the application due to an iPhone from the United States). They opened the application on average on 130.1 ± 144.7 days. Of the 109 patients still in follow-up after 12 months (i.e. patients who did not withdraw and on OAC), 90 patients (82.6%) actively used the application at least one day in the next 41 days. The Measurement module was the most used, with a median of used days over the total available days of 6.4%. A total of 75 App patients (49.3%) asked questions, mostly clinical-related questions (e.g. medication use, or actionability on clinical entered parameters). A mean score of 8.1 ± 1.7 about the “perceived quality of follow-up in the past year” was given by the App ITT patients, compared to a score of 7.7 ± 2.0 by the SC group (P = .072). Patients who used the App were more attracted to future follow-up with an application compared to patients who would be capable of using the application of the SC group (31.6% vs. 12.5%; P &lt; .001).ConclusionThis study showed a positive attitude towards using a mobile application, with AF patients using the application one-third of the available days. Patients used the App most for entering measured parameters, and to contact the care team.
Implementing internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy in healthcare services: a qualitative exploration of stakeholder experience
Authors: Duffy Daniel , Richards Derek , Earley Caroline , Timulak Ladislav 
Published: September 2023

BackgroundThis study consisted of a qualitative exploration of stakeholder experience regarding the implementation of internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy (iCBT) as part of routine service provision within the UK's Improving Access to Psychological Therapies program.MethodsStakeholder groups included service providers (n = 6), commercial iCBT representatives (n = 6) and patients who received a course of iCBT as part of treatment at the service (n = 7). Participants took part in a semi-structured interview over the telephone, and subsequent data were qualitatively analyzed using the descriptive-interpretive approach.ResultsService providers highlighted the importance of effective leadership and management, training initiatives, the provision of feedback to commercial iCBT representatives and creating work structures around iCBT to facilitate iCBT supporting staff in their use of it. Commercial iCBT representatives similarly reported the importance of training clinicians in iCBT use, identifying the appropriate individuals at all levels of the service to drive iCBT implementation, and the importance of being responsive to any problems or needs that arise from the service. Patients reported an overall positive experience of receiving iCBT but highlighted a need for more information from their supporter and the intervention to better structure their usage. Contextual factors, in terms of barriers and facilitators, were also highlighted by service provider and commercial participants; citing negative clinician attitudes and technological issues/bugs as barriers to implementation, and the exposure to iCBT created by COVID-19 and perseverance in using iCBT over time as facilitators.DiscussionThe findings contribute to a growing field of literature that seeks to understand the experience of relevant stakeholders who are involved with and contribute to iCBT implementation, including commercial iCBT representatives who, to our knowledge, have not been accounted for as part of published research to date.

Published: September 2023

ObjectiveTo obtain quantitative and comprehensive results of the changes in comprehensive ER indicators from ovulation day to transplantation day by ultrasonography during the natural frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycle (FET).MethodsThis is a prospective analysis of 230 infertile women undergoing their first FET cycles from April 2019 to July 2021. To evaluate ER, ultrasound scans were performed on the days of ovulation and embryo transfer for all included patients. All included patients were divided into a pregnancy group and a nonpregnancy group according to whether clinical pregnancy was achieved. The ER changes from ovulation day to transplantation day in the overall study population (n=230), pregnancy group (n=158) and nonpregnancy group (n=72) were analyzed.ResultsIn the overall population, type C was predominant on ovulation day, but type B was the most common on transplantation day (P&lt;0.001). From ovulation day to transplantation day, endometrial thickness was significantly increased (11.26 ± 2.14 vs. 11.89 ± 2.08 mm, P&lt;0.001), but endometrial volume (4.26 ± 1.75 vs. 4.03 ± 1.62 ml, P&lt;0.001), endometrial VI (1.34 ± 1.64 vs. 0.95 ± 1.99, P&lt;0.001), VFI (0.47 ± 0.72 vs. 0.40 ± 1.03, P&lt;0.001), subendometrial VI (5.04 ± 3.89 vs. 3.29 ± 2.92, P&lt;0.001), FI (34.07 ± 4.61 vs. 33.41 ± 5.30, p=0.004), VFI (2.07 ± 2.65 vs. 1.19 ± 1.19, P&lt;0.001) and frequency of endometrial peristalsis (2.90 ± 1.44 vs. 1.40 ± 1.41, P&lt;0.001) were significantly decreased. In the pregnancy group, the changes in all ultrasound parameters were in the same direction as those in the overall population. In the nonpregnancy group, except for endometrial volume and VI, which showed no difference, other ultrasound parameters showed the same direction of change as those in the overall population. No significant difference was found in the pregnancy probability among the different absolute change groups.ConclusionDuring a natural cycle, the morphology of the endometrium changes mostly from type C to type B, the endometrial thickness increases, and the volume decreases. The blood supply of the endometrium, the subendometrial 5 mm and the frequency of peristalsis decrease from ovulation day to transplantation day. Compared with the nonpregnancy group, the pregnancy group tended to have more obvious decreases in endometrial volume and blood flow perfusion. However, these endometrial changes do not mean that pregnancy is bound to occur. endometrial receptivity, in vitro fertilization, frozen-thawed embryo transfer, natural cycle, ultrasound evaluation, ovulation day, transplantation day

Published: September 2023

BackgroundEpicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is related to atrial fibrillation. The association between EAT volume and premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) remains unclear. Our study aimed to investigate the effect of EAT volume on the risk of frequent PVCs and burden levels of PVCs.MethodsThis observational study retrospectively recruited consecutive patients who had consultation between 2019 and 2021 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. Frequent PVC patients (n = 402) and control patients (n = 402) undergoing non-contrast computed tomography (CT) were enrolled. We selected evaluation criteria for the conduct of a 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) analysis. Multivariable logistic analysis was used to investigate factors related to frequent PVCs. Furthermore, the determinants of EAT volume and the burden levels of PVCs were evaluated.ResultsPatients with PVCs had a significantly larger EAT volume than control patients. EAT volume was significantly larger in male PVC patients with BMI ≥24 kg/m2, diabetes mellitus, and E/A ratio &lt;1. EAT volume was independently associated with PVCs. Moreover, the larger EAT volume was an independent predictor for the high burden level of PVCs. We revealed that the risk of high PVC burden level was increased with the rising of EAT volume by restricted cubic splines.ConclusionsEAT volume was larger in frequent PVC patients than in control patients, regardless of other confounding factors. A large EAT volume was independently associated with high burden levels of PVCs. EAT volume may be a new mechanism to explain the pathogenesis of PVCs.

IntroductionTrauma patients are susceptible to coagulopathy and dysfunctional immune responses. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are at the forefront of the cellular therapy revolution with profound immunomodulatory, regenerative, and therapeutic potential. Routine assays to assess immunomodulation activity examine MSC effects on proliferation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and take 3–7 days. Assays that could be done in a shorter period of time would be beneficial to allow more rapid comparison of different MSC donors. The studies presented here focused on assays for MSC suppression of mitogen-stimulated PBMC activation in time frames of 24 h or less.MethodsThree potential assays were examined—assays of apoptosis focusing on caspase activation, assays of phosphatidyl serine externalization (PS+) on PBMCs, and measurement of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) levels using rapid ELISA methods. All assays used the same initial experimental conditions: cryopreserved PBMCs from 8 to 10 pooled donors, co-culture with and without MSCs in 96-well plates, and PBMC stimulation with mitogen for 2–72 h.ResultsSuppression of caspase activity in activated PBMCs by incubation with MSCs was not robust and was only significant at times after 24 h. Monitoring PS+ of live CD3+ or live CD4+/CD3+ mitogen-activated PBMCs was dose dependent, reproducible, robust, and evident at the earliest time point taken, 2 h, although no increase in the percentage of PS+ cells was seen with time. The ability of MSC in co-culture to suppress PBMC PS+ externalization compared favorably to two concomitant assays for MSC co-culture suppression of PBMC proliferation, at 72 h by ATP assay, or at 96 h by fluorescently labeled protein signal dilution. TNFα release by mitogen-activated PBMCs was dose dependent, reproducible, robust, and evident at the earliest time point taken, with accumulating signal over time. However, suppression levels with MSC co-culture was reliably seen only after 24 h.DiscussionTakeaways from these studies are as follows: (1) while early measures of PBMC activation is evident at 2–6 h, immunosuppression was only reliably detected at 24 h; (2) PS externalization at 24 h is a surrogate assay for MSC immunomodulation; and (3) rapid ELISA assay detection of TNFα release by PBMCs is a robust and sensitive assay for MSC immunomodulation at 24 h.
