THE EFFECTIVENESS OF WET CUPPING AND DRY CUPPING IN REDUCCING BLOOD PRESSURE IN HYPERTENSION PATIENTS

Hypertension is the 5th deadliest disease in the world at various ages. Management of hypertension can be done with a pharmacological, non-pharmacological, or alternative treatments that can treat hypertension is cupping therapy. The purpose of study was to find out the differences in the effect of wet cupping therapy and dry cupping therapy on the back point to decrease blood pressure in hypertension patients in Wonopringgo Village, Pekalongan Regency. This research used a type of pre-experimental design with a pre-post-test design. There are 2 groups (two groups) on this research without a control group. The result of Mann Whitney Test obtained p-value 0,000 <0,05 which mean there is a difference in blood pressure reduction between wet cupping therapy with dry cupping therapy, this is because wet cupping has an effect on blood pressure in hypertension patients, one of which is reducing the volume of blood in the body by removing some of the blood, while dry cupping has a relaxing effect on the heart, kidneys, back veins, such relaxation effect will occur vasodilatation of blood vessels that have previously undergone vasocontriction resulting in a decrease in blood pressure in patients with hypertention. The conclusion of this study is that wet cupping therapy with dry cupping therapy can reduce blood pressure in patients with hypertension.

MCADAM: A continuous paleomagnetic dipole moment model for the past 3.5 billion years using the PINT v8.0.0 database&amp;#160;

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Earth&amp;amp;#8217;s magnetic field is a long-lived phenomenon generated by dynamo processes occurring in the liquid core. Understanding how the strength of the field changes in time and space is critical to gaining insight into processes in Earth&amp;amp;#8217;s core and deep interior. The publication of field strength estimates represents a significant output of the paleomagnetic community, with efforts spanning several decades and dozens of research groups. Recently, the site-mean absolute paleointensity database PINT (www.pintdb.org; Bono et al., &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;GJI&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt;, 2022) received a major update to include data published up through 2019 and fully integrates the Quality of Paleointensity (Q&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;PI&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;) assessments for 94% of the database. Interpreting the paleointensity record as a continuous record of Earth&amp;amp;#8217;s field is challenging because of the non-uniformly spaced, often sparse, data records and the combination of natural variation of field strength due to secular variation and measurement uncertainty. Here, we have used the PINT database to construct a continuous paleomagnetic axial dipole moment model spanning 0.05 to 3500 Ma, MCADAM v1.0 (Monte Carlo Axial Dipole Average Model). The dipole moment model applies three resampling approaches: a non-parametric resampling (akin to a bootstrap) of site-mean records, a Monte Carlo simulation of site-mean estimates using age and paleointensity means and uncertainties, and LOWESS smoothing with an adaptative kernel width. These methods are combined to provide posterior predictions of axial dipole field strength and allow for estimation of the median field with confidence bounds. This approach can reproduce the recent (0-2 Ma) field that matches PADM2M (Ziegler et al., &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;GJI&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt;, 2011) as well as salient field intervals (e.g., high fields associated with superchrons) during the Phanerozoic. The model also reveals changes in field strength during the Precambrian which may be used to help constrain dynamo simulations and thermal evolution models of Earth&amp;amp;#8217;s core.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;

Space Charge Trapping and Conduction in Low-Density Polyethylene/Silica Nanocomposite

The high field conduction and space charge distribution were investigated in low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and LDPE/silica nanocomposites filled with various concentrations of nanosilica. The results indicate that nanosilica could effectively suppress space charge accumulation at nanofiller concentrations from 0.1 to 5.0 wt %. However, the conduction current at a high field significantly increases at low concentrations from 0.1 to 0.5 wt % and remarkably reduces at high concentrations from 0.5 to 5.0 wt %. It is shown that the trap depth corresponding to the time from 2 to 3600 s significantly decreases at low nanofiller concentrations from 0.1 to 0.5 wt %. However, the depth of deep traps corresponding to the time from 100 to 3600 s increases with the increase in nanofiller concentration from 0.5 to 5.0 wt %. Moreover, the depth of shallow traps corresponding to the time from 2 to 100 s increases at concentrations from 0.5 to 2.0 wt %, and then it decreases at concentrations from 2.0 to 5.0 wt %. In addition, the apparent mobility varies with the modification of trap depth caused by the introduction of nanofiller. The threshold field EΩ–t for remarkable charge injection and Et–c proportional to the total trap density H are significantly lower in the nanocomposite with a low nanosilica concentration, i.e., 0.1 and 0.5 wt %, while both of them increase at concentrations from 0.5 to 5.0 wt %. It is considered that the impurity effect is greater than the nanofiller effect at a low nanofiller concentration. The deep trap is speculated as the chemical trap in the interface of the nanofiller bonding strongly with the polymer chain, while the shallow trap may be related to the chemical trap in the weakly bonded interface. It is clear that the space charge behavior and conduction are significantly affected by modification of the trap depth and density distribution owing to the introduction of nanofiller.

Natural Amelioration of Chocolate-Induced Acidity: The Role of Pineapple in Maintaining Oral pH Balance

The consumption of chocolate, especially varieties high in sugar, can disrupt the delicate pH balance in the oral cavity, increasing the risk of dental caries. Pineapple, with its rich enzymatic and organic acid profile, presents a potential natural solution to counteract this acidic challenge. This study investigates the efficacy of pineapple consumption in mitigating the pH-lowering effects of chocolate and its impact on saliva volume, a crucial factor in maintaining oral health. A quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test control group approach was employed. Participants included children aged 6-9 years (n=40), divided into two groups: a control group (chocolate consumption only) and an intervention group (chocolate consumption followed by pineapple consumption). Saliva volume and pH were measured before and after treatment, and the data were analyzed using paired t-tests. Pineapple consumption significantly increased saliva volume in the intervention group (from 2.01±1.29 mL to 5.3±0.88 mL, p&lt;0.05), exceeding the volume observed in the control group. Furthermore, the decrease in saliva pH in the intervention group (from 7.45±0.13 to 6.25±0.37) was more controlled compared to the control group (from 7.30±0.09 to 5.28±0.25). In conclusion, the consumption of pineapple after chocolate effectively stimulates saliva production and helps maintain a balanced oral pH, mitigating the acidic effects of chocolate and potentially reducing the risk of dental caries. These findings suggest the potential of pineapple as a natural, dietary approach to support oral health.

Caring for the caregiver: factors associated with the quality of life of family caregivers to palliative care patients

Purpose: The aim was to investigate the factors associated with the quality of life (QoL) of family caregivers to palliative care patients. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted of 125 family caregivers of patients in the terminal phase of their illness and included in palliative care programs. Data were collected using WHOQOL-BREF, the socio-demographic characteristics of both caregiver and patient, clinical questions and information about caregiving. Results: The QoL of caregivers was lower than that of the national average for healthy people. Significantly lower QoL scores were obtained in the case of caregivers if they were women, over 55 years, uneducated, unemployed or the patient’s spouse. Cancer diagnosis and patients who were dependent for their Activities of Daily Living also lower caregiver QoL. The factors associated with higher caregiver QoL in each domain differed: being employed in the physical domain (OR:3.3; 95% CI:1.47-7.4), the patient receiving palliative care in hospital in the psychological domain (OR:3.05; 95% CI:1.19-7.7), a higher level of caregiver´s education in the social domain (OR:3.3; 95% CI:1.4-9.8) and caregivers between 45-55 years in the environmental domain (OR:5.4; 95% CI:1.6-9.2).Conclusion: Family caregivers of palliative care patients are highly burdened during caregiving. Characteristics of the patient and caregiver and the conditions under which care is performed, significantly affect QoL. We consider it essential to increase health professionals’ awareness of the importance of the role of the caregiver in providing services to the terminally ill, given the impact of the caregiver’s QoL on the QoL of the palliative care patient and its importance for the delivery of person-centered care at the end of life.

Modeling and Simulation of Multifield Diffusionin Laminated Composites

In this study an analytical and numerical modeling of the interaction between the process of diffusion and the mechanics of a solid are developed. It is then implemented on a fiber composite material, and several cases are simulated and analyzed. Starting with the a free energy as a function of the deformation and concentration, &Psi( F ,C), a constitutive model is derived for the strain energy function &Psi_m( F ), the coupled term of the free energy, &Psi_md( F ,C), and the diffusion part of the free energy, &Psi_d(C). With these terms we define the stress, the coupling terms, and the diffusion flux respectively. These are then used in the balance of mass, the balance of linear momentum and the continuity equation. The equations are discretized using a finite difference scheme for the time variable, and a nonlinear finite element method for the spacial variables. The coupling is implemented using a staggering methodology. The staggering scheme allows for easy implementation and provides a convenient framework. Several phenomena are modeled, for example, strain-dependent diffusivity, concentration based saturation, diffuso-elasticity and nonuniform diffusion induced swelling. The simulations involve various parametric studies including using different elastic strain energy functions, such as Kirchhoff Saint Venant. Moreover, the simulations are conducted for both isotropic and orthotropic materials where we explore such effects as free swelling, and combined mechanical loading and diffusion boundary conditions.

The focus-execute component of attention

Children with Turner Syndrome (TS) (n = 61) and healthy children (n = 60), whose ages ranged from 6 to 17, were compared on the focus-execute attention measures. The focus-execute component of attention is the ability to identify salient features, and perform rapid responses under conditions of distractions (Lyon, 1994). Findings suggested that children with TS performed significantly less well on the following measures of the focus-execute component of attention: Stroop Color and Word Test (Golden, 1978) and the Trail Making Test B (Reitan &amp; Wolfson, 1985). No differences between the groups were found on the Symbol Digit Modalities Test (Smith, 1982) and Concentration Endurance Test (Brickenkamp, 1981). The pattern of performance on the focus-execute attention measures of young and old children with TS did not differ from that of young and old healthy comparison children. In general, children with TS performed within the normative range on low but not high task demands. Karyotype of children with TS was not related to the level of performance on the focus-execute attention measures. In examining unique contributions of several potentially confounding variables (e.g., visual-spatial, motor, impulse control, and working memory) to the focus-execute attention measures, visual-spatial skills and working memory were found to account for variance in the performance on the Stroop Color condition only, indicating that the focus-execute measures used in the study were relatively not confounded. Results are discussed in the context of an integrated model of attention proposed by the present author to explain the nature of the focus-execute component of attention in children with TS. The need for establishing ecological validity of the focus-execute attention measures to assist in planning psychoeducational interventions for children with TS is suggested.

Sound Pollution Monitoring System and Awareness Creation in Modern Cities: A Case Study

Due to excessive sound levels throughout Dhaka, sound pollution has become one of the primary causes of environmental pollution. Nowadays, the sound level exceeds the safe parameter of people's hearing and health. Proper assessment of sound level in Dhaka is required to address this pollution adequately. To this end, this paper proposes a systematic approach including an updated data set of sound levels to assess sound pollution throughout Dhaka city. Following the methodology, a survey was conducted by selecting central locations and measuring the sound levels at those locations throughout the city. Moreover, we divided Dhaka city into two parts, i.e., Dhaka North and Dhaka South. The sound level meter Lutron SL-4012 is utilized for collecting data from the selected locations choosing peak hours. The findings show that all the monitored places are facing critical sound pollution. A few highly polluted areas such as Newmarket, Shahbagh, Paltan, Gulistan, Motijheel from Dhaka South and Mohammadpur Beribadh, Gabtoli, Farmgate, Kawran Bazar, Mohakhali from Dhaka North are also identified. Moreover, this paper also proposes a potential sound mitigation approach involving device-based sound metering and displaying to reduce sound pollution. The intended device will continuously monitor the sound level of the specific location from the side of the roadway and show awareness messages via a large display. This paper contributes significantly by providing a comprehensive and updated overview of sound pollution throughout Dhaka city. Furthermore, the proposed solution has the potential to raise public awareness and minimize the dangerously high sound level in Dhaka city upon large-scale deployment.

Outbursts on normal stars. FH Leo misclassified as a novalike variable

We present high resolution spectroscopy of the common proper motion system FH Leo (components HD 96273 and BD+07 2411B), which has been classified as a novalike variable due to an outburst observed by Hipparcos, and we present and review the available photometry. We show from our spectra that neither star can possibly be a cataclysmic variable, instead they are perfectly normal late-F and early-G stars. We measured their radial velocities and derived the atmospheric fundamental parameters, abundances of several elements including Fe, Ni, Cr, Co, V, Sc, Ti, Ca and Mg, and we derive the age of the system. From our analysis we conclude that the stars do indeed constitute a physical binary. However, the observed outburst cannot be readily explained. We examine several explanations, including pollution with scattered light from Jupiter, binarity, microlensing, background supernovae, interaction with unseen companions and planetary engulfment. While no explanation is fully satisfactory, the scattered light and star-planet interaction scenarios emerge as the least unlikely ones, and we give suggestions for further study.

Influence of individual differences in working memory on the continued influence effect of misinformation

Misinformation often continues to influence people's cognition even after being retracted (the continued influence effect of misinformation, CIE). The current research aimed to investigate whether the individual differences in the central executive function of WM and updating could influence the CIE of misinformation with varying relevance. The results showed that the individual differences in central executive function could significantly affect the CIE, especially for the high-relevant misinformation. While the individual differences in the updating ability had a weaker impact on the CIE in general and only negatively related to the CIE for the low-relevant misinformation. The study extends the understanding of the relationship between individual differences and the CIE from previous studies, which is in line with the mental-model-updating hypothesis, and offers a preliminary clue for identifying the persons vulnerable to the CIE of misinformation in the real world.

Novel push-pull integrated antenna transmitter front-end

A new integrated antenna power amplifier architecture is investigated. In this topology, a multifeed patch antenna is used as the tuned load of a class-B push-pull amplifier in such a manner that the fundamental radiates efficiently and higher harmonics are suppressed. This eliminates the necessity of using a second hybrid at the output of the amplifier and results in an extremely compact class of push-pull front end with lower associated circuit losses. Measured data shows that the power-added efficiency of the amplifier is greater than 55%, indicating that this new approach works as expected.

Defining the role of a unique Ω‐loop insertion in the class D β‐lactamase OXA‐1

In Class A, C and D β‐lactamases, an Ω‐loop is found near the active site and is involved in both catalysis and substrate selection. Among the class D oxacillinases, OXA‐1 has the largest Ω‐loop, which is six hydrophilic residues longer than in other OXA enzymes. To determine the effect of the extended Ω‐loop found in OXA‐1 on substrate affinity, we removed the six additional residues using polymerase chain reaction mutagenesis. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) testing showed that the deletion provided no significant alteration in resistance to most penicillin and cephalosporin antibiotics; one main exception to this was a four‐fold enhancement of the MIC for cefepime. The enzyme was then purified and the protein was subjected to kinetic analysis. For cefotaxime, the K m for the OXA‐1 Ω‐loop deletion showed no large difference and the K cat was slightly lower than wild‐type. However significant differences were found for cefepime compared to wild‐type OXA‐1. The K m and the K cat values were significantly higher, suggesting that the deletion of the Ω‐loop has an effect both on binding and catalysis for cefepime.
