Evaluation of Upper Extremity Function after Operative and Non-Operative Management of Proximal Humeral Fracture Patients at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital, Palembang, Indonesia
Authors: Aryanta Wiria , Daniel Ferrand  
Published: May 2023

Introduction: Proximal humeral fractures are one of the most common long bone fractures due to osteoporosis. The need for operative action can provide greater benefits than non-operative measures. However, the difference between the need for operative and non-operative measures in proximal fractures is still controversial. This study aimed to determine differences in DASH (disability of the arm, shoulder, and hand) scores as a function of assessing upper extremity patients with proximal humeral fractures after operative and non-operative management at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital, Palembang, Indonesia.
Methods: Cross-sectional analytic observational study, in which 37 research subjects participated in this study. Univariate and bivariate analyses were carried out using SPSS software on the patient's sociodemographic data as well as the clinical data of the study subjects.
Results: There was no statistically significant difference in upper extremity function (DASH score) between operative and non-operative procedures in patients with proximal humeral fractures, p> 0.05.
Conclusion: There was no difference in upper extremity function as assessed by the DASH score in operative and non-operative procedures in patients with proximal humeral fractures at Dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital, Palembang, Indonesia.
Inhibition and paradoxical choice
Authors: González Valeria V. , Blaisdell Aaron P. 
Published: May 2023

AbstractThe present study evaluated the role of inhibition in paradoxical choice in pigeons. In a paradoxical choice procedure, pigeons receive a choice between two alternatives. Choosing the “suboptimal” alternative is followed 20% of the time by one cue (the S+) that is always reinforced, and 80% of the time by another cue (S-) that is never reinforced. Thus, this alternative leads to an overall reinforcement rate of 20%. Choosing the “optimal” alternative, however, is followed by one of two cues (S3 or S4), each reinforced 50% of the time. Thus, this alternative leads to an overall reinforcement rate of 50%. González and Blaisdell (2021) reported that development of paradoxical choice was positively correlated to the development of inhibition to the S- (signal that no food will be delivered on that trial) post-choice stimulus. The current experiment tested the hypothesis that inhibition to a post-choice stimulus is causally related to suboptimal preference. Following acquisition of suboptimal preference, pigeons received two manipulations: in one condition one of the cues in the optimal alternative (S4) was extinguished and, in another condition, the S- cue was partially reinforced. When tested on the choice task afterward, both manipulations resulted in a decrement in suboptimal preference. This result is paradoxical given that both manipulations made the suboptimal alternative the richer option. We discuss the implications of our results, arguing that inhibition of a post-choice cue increases attraction to or value of that choice.

Published: May 2023

Abstract
We investigate the peak flux energy spectrum of 458 solar energetic electron (SEE) events with a clear velocity dispersion detected at energies from ≤4.2 to ≥108 keV by Wind/3DP from 1994 December through 2019 December, utilizing a pan-spectrum fitting method. According to the fitted spectral parameters, these 458 events are self-consistently classified into five spectral types: 304 downward double-power-law (DDPL) events, 32 upward double-power-law (UDPL) events, 23 single-power-law (SPL) events, 44 Ellison–Ramaty (ER) events, and 55 logarithmic–parabola (LP) events. The DDPL events can be further divided into two types: 231

Abstract
We report two low-frequency measurements of the power-law index for the amplitudes of giant radio pulses from the Crab pulsar. The two observations were taken with the Arecibo and Green Bank radio telescopes at center frequencies of 327 MHz and 350 MHz, respectively. We find best-fit values for the differential power-law index β (where

and S is the pulse amplitude) of −2.63 ± 0.05 and −3.6 ± 0.5 from the Arecibo and Green Bank data sets, respectively. Both values are broadly consistent with other values previously measured for the Crab pulsar at low radio frequencies. These reported values may be useful in future giant pulse studies of the Crab pulsar.

Abstract
We present an overview of the CANDELS Lyα Emission At Reionization (CLEAR) survey. CLEAR is a 130 orbit program of the Hubble Space Telescope using the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) IR G102 grism. CLEAR targets 12 pointings divided between the GOODS-N and GOODS-S fields of the Cosmic Assembly Near-IR Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey (CANDELS). Combined with existing spectroscopic data from other programs, the full CLEAR data set includes spectroscopic imaging of these fields over 0.8–1.7 μm. In this paper, we describe the CLEAR survey, the survey strategy, the data acquisition, reduction, processing, and science products and catalogs released alongside this paper. The catalogs include emission line fluxes and redshifts derived from the combination of the photometry and grism spectroscopy for 6048 galaxies, primarily ranging from 0.2 ≲ z ≲ 3. We also provide an overview of CLEAR’s science goals and results. In conjunction with this paper we provide links to electronic versions of the data products, including 1D+2D extracted spectra and emission line maps.
Data-driven Uncertainty Quantification of the Wave Telescope Technique: General Equations and Demonstration Using HelioSwarm
Authors: Broeren T. , Klein K. G. 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
The upcoming NASA mission HelioSwarm will use nine spacecraft to make the first simultaneous multipoint measurements of space plasmas spanning multiple scales. Using the wave telescope technique, HelioSwarm’s measurements will allow for both the calculation of the power in wavevector and frequency space and the characterization of the associated dispersion relations of waves present in the plasma at MHD and ion-kinetic scales. This technique has been applied to the four-spacecraft Cluster and Magnetospheric Multiscale missions, and its effectiveness has previously been characterized in a handful of case studies. We expand this uncertainty quantification analysis to arbitrary configurations of four through nine spacecraft for three-dimensional plane waves. We use Bayesian inference to learn equations that approximate the error in reconstructing the wavevector as a function of relative wavevector magnitude, spacecraft configuration shape, and number of spacecraft. We demonstrate the application of these equations to data drawn from a nine-spacecraft configuration to both improve the accuracy of the technique, as well as expand the magnitudes of wavevectors that can be characterized.
The Behavior of Bp Si Stars in the Far UV—Paper V: HD 92664
Authors: Monier Richard 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
The analysis of spectra of the B8 Si-rich HD 92664 recorded by the SWP camera on board the International Ultraviolet Explorer reveals variations of the far-ultraviolet spectral energy distribution shortwards of 1700 Å over a time interval of about 2 months. In contrast, the mid-UV flux does not vary which suggests that changes of the silicon continuous and line opacity are the cause of the variations. The iron-peak elements, chromium, manganese and iron play a lesser role than silicon in these variations. Phased on previous ephemeris, the FUV minimum occurs at the rotational phase, ϕ = 0.0, which corresponds to maximum light in the V-band and minimum longitudinal magnetic field.
Looking for the “Blue Bump” in the Early Light Curve of SN Ia using an Open Supernovae Catalog
Authors: Duston Christopher L , Santos Bernardo 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
In this study we used archival supernova data from a publicly available database to look for a blue excess in the early light curves of SN Ia. This blue excess represents a simple proposed method to differentiate between single- and double-degenerate formation scenarios. Our search found 2 candidates out of 40 SN Ia, and including selection effects implies an upper limit of ∼50% of the supernovae in the sample originated in a binary with a non-degenerate companion.
Variations in the concentration of free amino acids during the early development of the Pacific red snapper Lutjanus peru
Authors: Peña Renato , Moguel-Hernández Ivette , García-Aguilar Noemí 
Published: May 2023

The free amino acids (FAAs) profile and its variations during the embryonic development and yolk-sac larvae of Pacific red snapper Lutjanus peru are described. The concentration of 15 FAAs (nine essentials and six non-essentials) was evaluated by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The fertilized eggs of L. peru contain a small concentration of FAAs (4.77 ± 0.89 nmol ind-1). However, the variations in the FAAs pool during the early development are similar to the changes reported in other species with small pelagic eggs. The essential free amino acids are more abundant than the non-essential free amino acids throughout the studied period. During the egg stage, an increase in the FAAs was observed, and after hatching, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, and alanine were the FAAs that decreased the most during the yolk-sac larvae stage. The hatching rate was correlated with the total FAAs, the fraction of essential free amino acids, and the concentrations of glutamic acid, threonine, and valine in the egg stage, suggesting a possible role as a determinant in egg quality. Further studies are required to assess the role of FAAs in other aspects of egg development, like fertilization rate and egg buoyancy.

Authors: Boev Christine 
Published: May 2023

Background:
The Next Generation NCLEX (NGN) is designed to specifically measure nursing clinical judgment. Schools of nursing are looking for ways to better integrate nursing clinical judgment into their curriculum. One effective strategy to promote nursing clinical judgment is simulation.

Method:
This article explains how to conduct simulations that follow the National Council of State Boards of Nursing Clinical Judgment Measurement Model (NCJMM). Focusing on layer three of the NCJMM, specific examples are provided that link each step of layer three to nursing clinical judgment using simulation.

Results:
Beginning with Recognizing Cues, the simulation focuses on each step of layer three ending with Evaluating Outcomes. The simulation concludes with a debriefing session to solidify relationships between the variables.

Conclusion:

Simulation has the potential to improve nursing clinical judgment as well as pass rate on the NGN.

La poésie antique du Sangam est-elle vraiment une poésie du paysage ? Littérature tamoule classique et vision contemporaine du paysage
Authors: Landy Frédéric , Gauché Evelyne , Sricandane Gopinath 
Published: May 2023

La poésie tamoule dite du Sangam, vieille de deux millénaires, est souvent qualifiée de « poésie du paysage ». Elle pourrait être ainsi comparée à la poésie chinoise du shanshui, qui lui est un peu postérieure (4ème siècle après J.C.). Dans quelle mesure les poètes indiens de l'époque portaient-ils une réelle attention au paysage ? Se pourrait-il que cette littérature puisse relever, selon l’expression d’Augustin Berque (2016), d’une véritable « pensée du paysage » ? De fait, les émotions et tout un paysage intérieur s’y reflètent. En particulier, un mot souvent employé par les commentateurs médiévaux ultérieurs pour classifier les poèmes est couramment traduit par « paysage » ou landscape. Pourtant ce terme, tinai, est très rare dans les œuvres mêmes. L’article décrit les avatars successifs qu’ont connus cette poésie et la notion de tinai dans la mémoire tamoule et la société contemporaine. De nos jours, une lecture régionaliste, souvent très politique, a contribué à fossiliser les poèmes sous cette étiquette de littérature du paysage.

Authors: Bongongo Tombo , Govender Indiran , Olowa Shango N. , Phukuta Nyundu S.J. , Nzaumvila Doudou K. 
Published: May 2023

Background: Patient safety culture (PSC) norms set within an organisation prevent harm during medical care. This study assessed the level of PSC among public healthcare professionals (HCPs) in Pretoria, South Africa.Methods: A multi-centre cross-sectional study conducted in three hospitals and 25 clinics in regions 1 and 2 of Pretoria, using a self-administered questionnaire adapted from the Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture. Using the Raosoft online sample size formula, from 1238 public HCPs identified, the sample size was calculated at 294; this expanded to 319 as a result of respondents’ willingness to participate in the study.Results: Of the 319 respondents with a mean age of 39.9 years, the minimum and maximum ages were 22 and 66 years, respectively. The age group of 30–39 years had the highest participation rate (17.6%). Most respondents (41.1%) came from the Odi district hospital and there were more women (78.1%) and nurses (49.2%). Positive attitudes were found for all PSC components, with staff education and training scoring highest (98.7%). Patient safety culture received a satisfactory rating from HCPs from the targeted facilities.Conclusion: This study showed that public HCPs in Pretoria’s regions 1 and 2 have a good PSC, particularly among nurses, professionals with more experience, and at primary care level.Contribution: To maintain or increase awareness of this concept among HCPs, the study advocates a PSC programme as well as ongoing education that can be supported by district and facility managers.
The prevalence of chronic kidney disease among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in central South Africa
Authors: Mhundwa William , Joubert Gina , Mofokeng Thabiso R. 
Published: May 2023

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a leading cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD). The prevalence of CKD among T2DM patients in Africa is 22.0%. The cut-off age for dialysing diabetic patients in the resource-limited state sector in South Africa is 50 years. Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients who develop CKD are likely to be excluded from chronic dialysis and rely on control of risk factors, including blood pressure and blood glucose levels, to prevent CKD progression. We aimed to determine the prevalence of CKD among T2DM patients attending the diabetes clinic at Pelonomi Academic Hospital, Bloemfontein.Methods: In this retrospective cross-sectional study, medical records of patients (January 2016 and December 2018) were reviewed to collect demographic and clinical information.Results: In total, 244 records were reviewed. Sixty-one (25.0%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 20% – 30.8%) T2DM patients had CKD. The rate of CKD was slightly higher in males (n = 24/81; 29.6%) compared with females (n = 37/163; 22.7%). Most patients with CKD (n = 58; 95.1%) were 50 years of age. Only 17.8% of patients achieved a glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) of 7.0%. Blood pressure was controlled in 14.3% of hypertensive patients. Renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system inhibitors were used by 78.6% of patients.Conclusion: A high prevalence of clinically significant CKD among T2DM patients with poor prospects of chronic dialysis in a resource-limited setting was observed. The risk factors for CKD development and progression should be adequately managed in T2DM patients.Contribution: This study emphasises the need for further research and innovation to improve outcomes of T2DM patients with CKD in resource-constrained settings.
Succinate dehydrogenase-deficient renal cell carcinoma: A retrospective study, 1999–2018
Authors: Morrison Ella , Goedhals Jacqueline , Pretorius Shireen , Joubert Gina , Gill Anthony J. , Van der Westhuizen Gerhard 
Published: May 2023

Background: Succinate dehydrogenase-deficient (SDH-deficient) renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a rare subtype of RCC. Approximately 0.05% – 0.2% of RCCs are SDH-deficient. It is usually associated with a pathogenic germline variant of the enzyme. Although the tumour is often indolent, it has a strong association with hereditary disease, most commonly paraganglioma and/or pheochromocytoma, and genetic testing is advised. Succinate dehydrogenase-deficient RCC is diagnosed by immunohistochemical (IHC) staining for SDH subunit B (SDHB), with loss of staining confirming SDHB deficiency. The incidence of SDH-deficient RCC in South Africa is unknown.Aim: To determine the incidence of SDH-deficient RCC in the Free State Province and its correlation with the worldwide incidence of 0.05% – 0.2%.Setting: Department of Anatomical Pathology, Universitas Academic Hospital and National Health Laboratory Service (NHLS) in Bloemfontein, South Africa.Methods: A retrospective descriptive study was performed. All primary RCCs diagnosed over a 20-year period (1999–2018) were included. An SDHB IHC stain was performed on all cases. A diagnosis of SDH-deficient RCC required loss of staining in all tumour cells in the presence of internal positive controls.Results: The study included 187 RCC cases. Two cases of SDH-deficient RCC were identified, representing an incidence of 1.1%. Both patients were male and were 22 and 44 years of age, respectively.Conclusion: The incidence of SDH-deficient RCC in central South Africa is slightly higher than global findings.Contribution: This study provides new data on SDH-deficient RCC in the South African context.

Küresel bir özellik kazanan yoğun rekabet ortamında işletmeler varlıklarını ve gelişimlerini sürdürebilmek için dünya pazarlarına sundukları ürün ve hizmetlerin kalitelerini korumakta ve küresel anlamda kabul görecek bir kalitede tutmakta da sorunlarla karşılaşmaktadırlar. Bu sorunlarla baş etmek için, sahip olduğu belirli kalıplar, ortaya koyduğu sınırlamalar ve şartlar ile ISO 9001 standardı oldukça başarılı bir araç olma özelliğini korumaktadır. Ancak ISO 9001 standardının bu özelliğini korumasının başlıca nedenlerinden biri de, yıllar içinde işletme içinde ve özellikle işletme dışındaki radikal gelişmelere bağlı olarak düzenli olarak revize edilmesidir.
Bu çalışmada birinci bölümde kalite ve kalite güvence sistemi kavramı kavramsal ve tarihsel olarak ele alınmıştır. İkinci bölümde ISO 9001:2015 revizyonu incelenmiştir. Son bölümde ise üretim yöneticilerinin algılamalarına dayalı olarak ISO 9001 Kalite Güvence Sistemindeki 2015 revizyonun incelenmesinde keşifsel bir inceleme yöntemi olarak odak grup çalışması yapılmıştır. Yöneticilerin revizyonlara ilişkin olarak organizasyonda uygulama zorlukları konusunda negatif bakış açıları ortaya çıkarken, işletme performansına dönük pozitif değerlendirmelerin güçlü bir şekilde ortaya çıktığı görülmüştür.

Moreover, students with fewer social media accounts are more likely to engage in political, volunteer, and social events than students with fewer social media accounts.
Considering the Advantages and Disadvantages of Utilizing Social Media to Enhance Learning and Engagement in K-12 Education
Authors: Güney Kaan 
Published: May 2023

This paper intends to explore the various ways in which social media can be used to enhance learning and engagement, as well as the potential challenges and risks that may arise. The study focuses on face-to-face formal K-12 education which is a system that generally covers 12 grades including primary and secondary schools. The manuscript provides a comprehensive theoretical literature review of the existing research on the topic, highlighting the main findings and discussing the implications. Social media platforms such as Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter have turned into an increasingly prevalent and influential aspect of modern society, and they have also begun to infiltrate the realm of education. However, during this study it has been noticed that there are few studies examining the effects of social media in K-12 education. Namely, some research has been conducted on higher or online education. Accordingly, while there are certainly benefits to applying social media in education, such as the ability to connect with a global network of learners and access to a vast array of information and resources, there are also challenges that must be considered. Thus, the results of this study provide clarification on previous research and lay the foundation for future examinations of the potential advantages and disadvantages of using social media in K-12 education.
