Published: June 2022

Aim:
This study aimed to assess the role of Tight junction proteins (TJPs) and claudins
in smokers with and without COPD compared to healthy individuals.

Background:
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a complex chronic respiratory
disease, including various inflammatory mediators. The prime etiological element in the development
of COPD is cigarette smoking. The lung airway epithelium comprises beneficial immunological
barriers to draw in insults, such as environmental particulates, cigarette smoke, etc.
Tight junctions (TJ) connected by transmembrane proteins determine epithelial permeability.
Cigarette smoke is indicated to defect TJ integrity. The possible involvement of the airway epithelium
in the pathogenesis of COPD has recently become apparent; however, its detailed mechanisms
remain elusive. The integrity of airway epithelium is crucial for airway homeostasis; defective
airway barrier activity contributes to COPD.

Objective:
In the present study, the objective was to investigate mRNA expression levels of TJP’s
like TJP-1, TJP-2, TJP-3, Tight junction-associated proteins-1, claudin-1, claudin-3, claudin-4,
claudin-7, claudin-10, claudin-15, claudin-19, and claudin-25 from blood samples of smokers
with COPD and compared them with smokers without COPD and healthy individuals.

Method:
The mRNA expressions were evaluated by the quantitative PCR method.

Results:
The gene expressions of these TJPs were significantly down-regulated, specifically in
COPD patients with a history of smoking (Smokers with COPD). Besides, FEV% was also established
for these patients. Similarly, smokers with COPD showed a significant increase in the
expression levels of transcription factors, like ZEB-1, ZEB-2, PDGFA, and HDGF, compared to
COPD patients without a history of smoking (smokers without COPD) and the healthy subjects.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, cigarette smoke disrupts TJ of the human airway epithelium, and the
transcriptional factors counteract this smoke-induced COPD. Thus, TJPs may serve as protective
elements for airway epithelial homeostasis during COPD.

Published: June 2022

Background:
A subpopulation of statin users such as subjects with chronic kidney disease (CKD), Human Immune virus (HIV, acute coronary syndrome (ACS), revascularization, metabolic syndrome, and/or diabetes may particularly benefit from pitavastatin pharmacotherapy.

Aim of the systematic review:
The current systematic review aimed systematically evaluate the effect of pitavastatin on primary cardiac events in subjects receiving pitavastatin in comparison to the other four statin members.

Methods:
We have conducted a systematic review on phases III and IV of randomized controlled trials (RCT-s, 11 trials) for subjects with primary cardiac events who have received pitavastatin. Subjects were diagnosed with any type of dyslipidemia (population 4804), who have received pitavastatin (interventions) versus comparator (comparison) with the primary efficacy endpoint of minimization of LDL-C and non-HDL-C, having an increase in HDL-C and/or reduction in major adverse cardiac events (MACE, cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction (fatal/nonfatal), and stroke (fatal/nonfatal) and/or their composite (outcomes). The secondary safety endpoint was the development of any adverse effects.

Results:
In the included trials (11), participants (4804) randomized for pitavastatin or comparator (atorvastatin, pravastatin, rosuvastatin, simvastatin) and followed up for 12 to 52 weeks. In terms of the primary outcome (reduction in LDL-C), pitavastatin 4 mg was superior to pravastatin 40 mg in three trials, while the 2 mg was comparable to atorvastatin 10 mg in four trials and simvastatin 20 and 40 mg in two 2 trials. However, rosuvastatin 2.5 mg was superior to pitavastatin 2 mg in two trials. Pitavastatin increased HDL-C and reduced non-HDL-C at the majority of the eleven trials. Regarding the safety profile, pitavastatin has proved to be tolerated and safe.

Conclusion:
The FDA proven indications of pitavastatin are primary dyslipidemia and mixed dyslipidemia as adjunctive therapy to dietary changes to lower total cholesterol, LDL-C, apolipoprotein B (Apo B), triglycerides (TG), and to increase HDL-C. Pitavastatin might be suitable for subjects with diabetes, ACS (reduced revascularization), metabolic syndrome, CKD, HIV, and subjects with low levels of HDL-C. We highly recommend rational individualization for the selection of statin.

Published: June 2022

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of the Progressively Lowered Stress Threshold training program on depression and care burden in dementia patient caregivers.
Materials and Methods. We applied an experimental model based on a pretest-posttest control group. The sample consisted of 140 dementia caregivers (the experimental group and the control group with 70 participants per group). The sample size was determined, and the participants were allocated to groups using power analysis. Data of the study were collected between April 15, 2016 and July 15, 2016. For the pre-test, both groups were provided with the Sociodemographic Characteristics Form, the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and the Caregiver Burden of Dementia Patient Caregiver Scale (CBDPCS) to be filled in. Then, the experimenter visited the homes of the experimental group patients twice at 2-week intervals to provide nursing care based on the Progressively Lowered Stress Threshold Model. Finally, after 8 weeks, the post-test was conducted by letting both groups complete the Sociodemographic Characteristics Form, the BDI, and the CBDPCS once again. Percentage, chi-square, in independent and dependent sample t-tests were used to evaluate the related data.
Results. The mean BDI score was 15.61 ± 10.97 in the pre-test and 11.08 ± 8.82 in the post-test (t=6.738, p=0.001). The mean pre-test and post-test total CBDPCS scores of caregivers were 67.02 ± 16.23 and 59.27 ± 15.25, respectively (t=5.974, p=0.001). The difference between the intergroup comparison of the mean experiment and control group post-test scores was statistically significant (p=0.001) on the CBDPCS and the total BDI score.
Conclusions. Our results suggest that education provided to caregivers can efficiently decrease their care burden and depression levels.

Useage of Dry Fiber Placement Fiber Semifinished Products for the Production of Board Sports Equipment Using the Example of a Splitboard
Authors: Kaufmann Jörg , Fleischmann Marc 
Published: June 2022

In the state of the art, sandwich structures are predominantly used for the production of board sports equipment such as snowboards, skateboards and wakeboards, which usually consist of a wood core with cover layers of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP). These almost exclusively thermoset FRP in the top and bottom booms are mainly manufactured by means of hand lay-up processes and subsequent hot pressing and joined in situ to the wood core. In the state of the art, multiaxial knitted fabrics with a fiber orientation of 0/90 or 0/+45/-45 are often used as semi-finished fiber products. These semi-finished fiber products manufactured on classic textile lines have a width of several inches after production. The most common width is 1.27 m or 50 inches, which leads to a very high waste of up to 30 % in production. By using the dry fiber placement process to manufacture preforms for a so-called splitboard, which is a subgroup of snowboards, it was possible to reduce the waste of carbon fibers during the fiber semifinished product production by approx. 60 % and significantly increase the economic efficiency. In addition, the variable tape placement of the dry fiber placement technology makes it possible to produce complex layer structures automatically, which can currently only be produced manually.

Principal Component Analysis and Factor Analysis in Accounting Research
Authors: Allee Kristian D. , Do Chuong , Raymundo Fellipe G. 
Published: June 2022

ABSTRACT
Principal component analysis (PCA) and factor analysis (FA) are both variable reduction techniques used to represent a set of observed variables in terms of a smaller number of variables. While both PCA and FA are similar along several dimensions (e.g., extraction of common components/factors), researchers often fail to recognize that these techniques are designed to achieve different goals and can produce significantly different results. We conduct a comprehensive review of the use of PCA and FA in accounting research. We offer simple guidelines on how to program PCA and FA in SAS/Stata and emphasize the importance of the implementation techniques as well as the disclosure choices made when utilizing these methodologies. Furthermore, we present a few intuitive, practical examples highlighting the unique differences between the techniques. Finally, we provide some recommendations, observations, notes, and citations for researchers considering using these procedures in future research.

Published: June 2022

Saluang Pauh adalah salah satu bentuk alat musik tiup Minangkabau di kota Padang. Secara tradisi Saluang Pauh akan tampil dikala ada kaba yang akan diiringi. Artinya penampilan Saluang Pauh berfungsi sebagai pengiring kaba atau saluang tidak akan tampil secara tunggal. Kaba merupakan salah satu seni tutur mengisahkan berbagai pola kehidupan masyarakat Minangkabau. Siginyang Saluang Pauh terinspitasi dari imbauan Saluang Pauh sebelum masuk kaba. Garitiak dari melodi yang dilahirkan peniup Saluang Pauh, seolah-olah menghimbau masyarakat Minangkabau agar menoleh ke belakang, sebelum melanjutkan perjalanan maksudnya sejauhmana anda berjalan jangan lupa kampung halaman, sesuai dengan falsafah Minangkabau “satinggi tinggi tabang bangau, jatuah ka kubangan juo”. Karakter yang ada pada kaba umumnya merupakan kerasnyahempasan kehidupan yang harus dilalui oleh masyarakat Pauh Padang. Deruh ombak serta kencangnya angin seolah-olah telah membentuk karakter masyarakat Pauah menjadi keras. Namun dibalik kerasnya watak mereka tersimpang jiwa seni yang lembut yang mereka lahirkan melalui dendang ratok dan melodi saluang Pauh. Interpretasi demikian merupakan antitesis dari interpretasi yang sudah dimiliki oleh orang secara umum. Konsep perbedaan interpretasi ini yang menjadi keinginan dari kelompok peneliti dari ISI Padangpanjang untuk menggali nilai-nilai seni yang terdapat dalam lukisan melodi Saluang Pauh. Saluang Pauah adalah berasal dari kecamatan Pauh, Padang, yang dulunya masuk ke kabupaten Padang Pariaman. Saluang Pauah juga disebut Saluang Pakok (tutup, Sumbat) karena sebagian besar naa melodi yang diahirkan berdasarkan Pakok seperti (Pakok 4, Pakok 5 dan, pakok 6) Secara umum seniman atau pemain Saluang Pauh sudah tergolong Lansia (usia lanjut), sedangkan generasi muda sudah sulit ditemukan yang mampu pemainkan, baik sebagai peniup Saluang maupun sebagai pendendang. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menggali nilai seni yang terdapat dalam pertunjuan Saluang Pauh. (1) mengkabarkan kepada anak negri sendiri agar dapat mencintai seni budaya sendiri agar jangan hilang ditelan masa. dan (2) sebuah komposisi musik baru yang diproses dari jalinan melodi Saluang Pauh. Proses penelitian dan penciptaan “Komposisi musik” dilakukan dengan tahapan penelitian untuk (1) pengumpulan data, (2) validasi data dengan instrumen (3) penulisan struktur pertunjukan serta membuat notasi dasar beberapa irama Saluang Pauh dan notasi pengembangan. Komposisi musik “Siginyang Saluang Pauh”. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode kualitatif dan kuantitatif dengan pendekatan Deskriptif Analitif, dengan tahapan (1) Observasi dan studi pustaka, (2) Riset ke lokasi di mana Saluang Pauh tumbuh dan berkembang. (3) Interpretasi dan eksperimentasi yang menghasilkan pola interpretasi penelitian ini dilakukan selama lebih kurang satu bulan.
