Pengaruh Kompetensi Profesional terhadap Kinerja Guru melalui Variabel Kontrol Etos Kerja di SMK Daarul Abroor Tasikmalaya

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This research aims to find out the influence between teacher professional competency variables on teacher performance controlled by work ethic variables and find out the magnitude of influence between variables. This study was located at SMK Daarul Abroor Tasikmalaya with a total sampling method that took the overall population of 40 people. The independent variable in the study was professional competence (X), while the dependent variable was teacher performance (Y). In addition, there are control variables in the form of work ethic (Z). Data collection instruments use questionnaires (questionnaires) as well as documentation. The data analysis method in this study consists of descriptive analysis and inferential analysis using statistical product and service solution (SPSS) version 22. Based on the results of the comparison between the bivariate correlation coefficient with the partial correlation coefficient obtained ryx > ryx.z = 0.807 > 0.519. From the comparison it can be concluded that professional competence can affect the performance of teachers because it is controlled by work ethic. In multiple regression analysis, there is a positive and significant influence between professional competence (X) on teacher performance (Y) through work ethic control variable (Z) with a coefficient of determination R2 of 0.706 with a significance value of 0.000 or less than α = 0.05. That is, the teacher performance variable (Y) can be explained by professional competency variable (X) and work ethic variable (Z) of 70.6%. The double regression equation is Y= 0.195X + 0.504X + 0.362X. Thus, in order for professional competence to be able to contribute to teacher performance, it must be supported by the work ethic of each individual teacher.

A new islanding detection technique based on rate of change of reactive power and radial basis function neural network for distributed generation

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Accurate and fast islanding detection of distributed generation is extremely important for its effective operation in distribution systems. For this purpose, several islanding detection methods have been suggested. Among them, hybrid islanding detection techniques are preferred due to their minimum effects on the power system. However, hybrid islanding detection techniques also suffer from two main limitations. They still degrade the power quality and also take comparatively large time to detect the islanding phenomenon. Thus, fast detection and power quality degradation issues are still not solved by hybrid islanding detection techniques. To address this issue, this paper suggests a new islanding detection technique based on rate of change of reactive power (ROCORP) and radial basis function neural network (RBFNN). The proposed technique uses ROCORP as the RBFNN input. The appropriate database of several islanding and non-islanding events is generated by performing the offline simulations on 26 Bus Malaysian distribution system for training the RBFNN. The simulation results shows that it can detects islanding and non-islanding events very fast without degrading the power quality of the system and is independent of threshold limitations.
EXTending availability of self-management structured EducatioN programmes for people with type 2 Diabetes in low-to-middle income countries (EXTEND)—a feasibility study in Mozambique and Malawi

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Background Globally, there are estimated 425 million people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) with 80% from low-middle income countries (LMIC). Diabetes self-management education (DSME) programmes are a vital and core component of the treatment pathway for T2D. Despite LMIC being disproportionally affected by T2D, there are no DSME available that meet international diabetes federation criterion. Methods The aims were to test the feasibility of delivering a proven effective and cost-effective approach used in a UK population in two urban settings in Malawi and Mozambique by; (1) developing a culturally, contextually and linguistically adapted DSME, the EXTending availability of self-management structured EducatioN programmes for people with type 2 Diabetes in low-to-middle income countries (EXTEND) programme; (2) using a mixed-method approach to evaluate the delivery of training and the EXTEND programme to patients with T2D. Results Twelve healthcare professionals were trained. Ninety-eight participants received the DSME. Retention was high (100% in Mozambique and 94% in Malawi). At 6 months HbA1c (−0.9%), cholesterol (−0.3 mmol/L), blood pressure (−5.9 mm Hg systolic and −6.1 mm Hg diastolic) improved in addition to indicators of well-being (problem areas in diabetes and self-efficacy in diabetes). Conclusion It is feasible to deliver and evaluate the effectiveness of a culturally, contextually and linguistically adapted EXTEND programme in two LMIC. The DSME was acceptable with positive biomedical and psychological outcomes but requires formal testing with cost-effectiveness. Challenges exist in scaling up such an approach in health systems that do not have resources to address the challenge of diabetes.

Randomized phase III study of platinum-doublet chemotherapy followed by gefitinib versus continued platinum-doublet chemotherapy in patients (pts) with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): Results of West Japan Thoracic Oncology Group trial (WJTOG

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

LBA8012 Background: Gefitinib is a small molecule inhibitor of the EGFR tyrosine kinase. When combined with chemotherapy, no survival gain was observed compared to chemotherapy alone (INTACT I and II). We have conducted a randomized phase III trial to evaluate whether gefitinib improves survival as maintenance therapy after platinum-doublet chemotherapy in pts with advanced NSCLC. Methods: Chemotherapy-naïve pts with advanced stage (IIIB/IV) NSCLC, ECOG PS of 0–1, and adequate organ functions were randomized to either, A) platinum-doublet chemotherapy (Carboplatin AUC 6+Paclitaxel 200mg/m2 day1 Q3w, Cisplatin 80mg/m2 day1+Irinotecan 60mg/m2 day1,8,15 Q4W, Cisplatin 80mg/m2 day1+Vinorelbine 25mg/m2 day1,8 Q3W, Cisplatin 80mg/m2 + Docetaxel 60mg/m2 day1 Q3W, or Cisplatin 80mg/m2 day1+Gemcitabine 1000mg/m2 day1, 8 Q3W) up to 6 cycles or B) platinum-doublet chemotherapy for 3 cycles followed by gefitinib 250 mg orally once daily. Pts were stratified by disease stage, gender, histology and chemotherapy regimens. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS); secondary endpoints include progression-free survival (PFS), response rate (RR), safety and QOL. A sample size of 300 pts per group was estimated on the basis of a projected median survival of 9 months (m) in arm A and 11.4 m in arm B, with a power of 80% at 0.05 two-sided alpha to compare both group. Results: 603 pts were randomized between March 2003 and May 2005, and pt characteristics were equally distributed between arms. There was a statistically significant improvement in PFS (HR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.57–0.80; P<0.001) in arm B; however, OS result did not reach statistical significance (P=0.10). In a pre-specified analysis of OS by histologic groups, arm B had significantly better OS than arm A in adenocarcinoma histology (n=467; HR, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.65–0.98; P=0.03). Conclusions: These results demonstrate a possible clinical benefit for maintenance therapy of gefitinib, especially in adenocarcinoma histology. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
Conflicting patterns of cardiovascular reactivity, self‐report, and behavior associated with social anxiety during a conversation with a close friend

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Abstract Social anxiety (SA) is characterized by anxious symptomology and fear during social situations, but recent work suggests that SA may not necessarily be associated with negative interpersonal and intrapersonal outcomes in support contexts. The current research investigates the discrepancies between self‐perceptions, behavior, and physiological responses associated with SA in social support conversations with close friends. Specifically, we examined the associations between SA and positive and negative affect, perceptions of demands and resources, and responsiveness. Additionally, we used the biopsychosocial model of challenge and threat to understand the physiological responses associated with SA. Participants (79.9% White, 9.8% Black or African American, 10.3% Multiple races or other; 78.7% Female), totaling 172 undergraduate friend dyads, completed self‐report measures and had physiological responses recorded while they discussed a problem unrelated to the friendship. Trained coders rated responsive behaviors exhibited during the conversation. Results revealed that greater SA was associated with greater negative perceptions of social interactions (greater negative affect, fewer perceived resources, and greater perceived demands). However, cardiovascular reactivity and behavioral responses within the conversation, as well as perceptions of partners' behavior after the conversation, contrasted with these negative perceptions. Indeed, greater SA was associated with greater sympathetic arousal (indicative of greater task engagement), but not with greater challenge or threat, and SA was not associated with perceived partner responsiveness or responsive behaviors. These results add to the growing body of research that suggests people with greater SA show inconsistencies between their conscious appraisals of social situations and their physiological responses.
Deep neural networks with ReLU, leaky ReLU, and softplus activation provably overcome the curse of dimensionality for Kolmogorov partial differential equations with Lipschitz nonlinearities in the $L^p$-sense

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

Recently, several deep learning (DL) methods for approximating high-dimensional partial differential equations (PDEs) have been proposed. The interest that these methods have generated in the literature is in large part due to simulations which appear to demonstrate that such DL methods have the capacity to overcome the curse of dimensionality (COD) for PDEs in the sense that the number of computational operations they require to achieve a certain approximation accuracy $\varepsilon\in(0,\infty)$ grows at most polynomially in the PDE dimension $d\in\mathbb N$ and the reciprocal of $\varepsilon$. While there is thus far no mathematical result that proves that one of such methods is indeed capable of overcoming the COD, there are now a number of rigorous results in the literature that show that deep neural networks (DNNs) have the expressive power to approximate PDE solutions without the COD in the sense that the number of parameters used to describe the approximating DNN grows at most polynomially in both the PDE dimension $d\in\mathbb N$ and the reciprocal of the approximation accuracy $\varepsilon>0$. Roughly speaking, in the literature it is has been proved for every $T>0$ that solutions $u_d\colon [0,T]\times\mathbb R^d\to \mathbb R$, $d\in\mathbb N$, of semilinear heat PDEs with Lipschitz continuous nonlinearities can be approximated by DNNs with ReLU activation at the terminal time in the $L^2$-sense without the COD provided that the initial value functions $\mathbb R^d\ni x\mapsto u_d(0,x)\in\mathbb R$, $d\in\mathbb N$, can be approximated by ReLU DNNs without the COD. It is the key contribution of this work to generalize this result by establishing this statement in the $L^p$-sense with $p\in(0,\infty)$ and by allowing the activation function to be more general covering the ReLU, the leaky ReLU, and the softplus activation functions as special cases.
Upregulation of expression of sarcoplasmic reticulum by TGF-beta 1 in cultured rat cardiac myocytes

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

The effects of transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) on the function and structure of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) were studied in cultured neonatal rat cardiac myocytes. The cardiac myocytes at days 2 and 6 of culture exhibited spontaneous contraction; however, the rate of contraction increased and became regular, depending on culture day. Ryanodine and norepinephrine (NE) increased the rate of contraction and frequency of Ca2+ oscillations in myocytes at day 2 of culture. Ryanodine did not affect the spontaneous contraction in nontreated and TGF-beta 1-treated myocytes. On the other hand, NE caused negative and positive chronotropic responses in nontreated and TGF-beta 1-treated cells, respectively. In the absence of extracellular Ca2+, ryanodine and NE did not affect the cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in the nontreated cells, whereas NE increased [Ca2+]i but ryanodine did not in the TGF-beta 1-treated cells. SR structures in TGF-beta 1-treated cells developed more than those in nontreated cells. The results indicate that TGF-beta 1 plays an important role in the upregulation of SR function and structure of cultured neonatal rat cardiac myocytes.

Assessment of Important Factors for Water Resources Management in European Agriculture

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

The present paper aims to estimate the areas equipped for irrigation and the desirability of agricultural water management in Europe. For this purpose, all necessary information was gathered from Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and cross referenced using the World Bank Group (WBG). Among all presented data in the FAO database, ten indices were selected (based on relevance and the availability of information on all the countries in Europe). The selected indices were analyzed for all 46 countries and the extent of areas equipped for irrigation of cultivated areas was estimated by two different formulas, using the other nine indices. The results demonstrate that value of relative error is less than 20%. In addition, an average index was calculated using two methods to assess each country's conditions for agricultural water management.

A history of luminal gastroenterology in Britain: the inside guide

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Peter Down. Published by Watery Books, Dorset. ISBN: 978-0-9572504-0-6

Residing recently in the Sheila Sherlock room in the refurbished accommodations at the William Harvey house at the College of Physicians in London, I was reminded that it was she who first told me (at one of my unsuccessful Consultant interviews) that “Gastroenterologists help people to get square meals through round holes”. I have been at that task ever since, often with an endoscope in hand, as recounted in a recent memoir called The Tunnel at the End of the Light (www.peterbcotton.com).

I approached Peter Down's majestic history of the British contributions to ‘luminal gastroenterology’ with some trepidation. It is 780 pages long, with almost 1500 references, and looked like seriously heavy going. It is indeed heavy, but it took only a few pages for me to realise that Peter has married serious scholarship with a conversational style that makes easy, indeed enjoyable, reading.

eNOS Gene Therapy Exacerbates Hepatic Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Diabetes

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Previous studies indicate that endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) function is impaired in diabetes as a result of increased vascular generation of reactive oxygen species. We hypothesized that eNOS gene therapy would augment NO· bioavailability and protect against hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (I-R) injury in type 2 diabetes mellitus. We developed a transgenic (Tg) diabetic mouse in which eNOS is systemically overexpressed. We also examined the effects of hepatic eNOS adenovirus therapy in diabetic mice. Diabetic (db/db) and nondiabetic mice were subjected to hepatic I-R injury. In nondiabetic mice, genetic overexpression of eNOS (both eNOS-Tg and eNOS adenovirus) resulted in hepatoprotection. In contrast, hepatic I-R injury was significantly increased in the db/db eNOS-Tg mouse, as serum alanine aminotransaminase (ALT) levels were increased by 3.3-fold compared with diabetic controls. Similarly, eNOS adenovirus treatment resulted in a 3.2-fold increase in serum ALT levels as compared with diabetic controls. We determined that hepatic eNOS was dysfunctional in the db/db mouse and increased genetic expression of eNOS resulted in greater production of peroxynitrite. Treatment with the eNOS cofactor tetrahydrobiopterin (BH 4 ) or the BH 4 precursor sepiapterin resulted in a significant decrease in serum ALT levels following I-R injury. We present clear examples of the protective and injurious nature of NO· therapy in I-R. Our data indicate that eNOS exists in an “uncoupled” state in the setting of diabetes and that “recoupling” of the eNOS enzyme with cofactor therapy is beneficial.
