The evolution of social work practice: implications for the generalist approach

Historically, social work has assumed a generalist approach to practice. Such an approach involves a broad general knowledge base and skills in several disciplines, fields, etc. Evidence‐based practice (EBP) entails the exactness of scientific research. It is intended for the application of rigorous expertise to arrive at the most effective practice methods based upon objective research findings. The evolution of social work toward a more legitimate practice method can then be realised via the prescripts of EBP.

How Should Student Behave? A Legal Ethics and Policy towards Nationalism and Anti-Radicalism Characters

The university has become an important place in the cultivation of character for generations in many countries. Many universities in the world also apply a variety of systems in making policies to shape the character of campus communities, including students. This study aims to analyze legal and ethical policies for students in fostering an attitude of nationalism and anti-radicalism. This study also aims to describe the various forms of implementation of student ethics policies that are applied in the Faculty of Law, Semarang State University, Indonesia. This study uses a qualitative method with direct data collection through observation and interviews. This study bases its analysis on the theory of the operation of Lawrence M Friedman's law. The results of this study indicate that legal and ethical policies for students are interpreted by a variety of different interpretations both between managers and students. Various cases of inequality of perception lead to pros and cons. However, this research proves that the implementation of legal ethics and student character policies have been regulated in various rules, both at the national level (ministerial regulation), university level (rector regulation), and faculty level (dean regulation) all of which emphasize on forming attitudes nationalism and anti-radicalism.&#x0D;

Quality Management

Abstract Manufacturing and service organizations have a fundamental objective of meeting or exceeding the needs of the customer. A means to accomplish this objective is through the adoption of a culture of quality management that is pervasive at all levels of the organization. Starting with senior management in charge of strategic planning, progressing to middle management, dealing with tactical issues, and continuing to line management, addressing operational issues, adoption of a system that promotes continuous quality improvement will ensure competitiveness and growth of the organization. As customer needs are usually prioritized, by focusing on the critical needs of the customer, the organization is able to address customer satisfaction, which in turn influences profitability. Further, as the level of quality increases, a reduction in total costs is achieved. The purpose of the article is to provide an overview of the domain of quality management with a strategic focus. As details on operational methods for the achievement of quality are not within the scope of this article, a brief discussion can be found in the conclusions section. The reader may refer to the cited references and other appropriate sections of the Encyclopedia for further details.

A hybrid method for Doppler spread estimation [mobile radio systems]

The Doppler spread estimator presented in this paper solves some problems encountered in some of the previously published solutions. The algorithm consists of two steps, both using the channel autocorrelation function. The first step is a coarse estimate, based on the sign change of the autocorrelation function. Depending on the coarse estimate, either a polynomial fit method (for low Doppler spreads) or a first zero detection method (for high Doppler spreads) is applied. The proposed hybrid Doppler spread estimator provides high estimation accuracy for a wide range of Doppler spreads.

Reference intervals for transthoracic echocardiographic measurements in adult Dachshunds.

The aim of this study was to establish reference values for 2D and M-mode measurements in Dachshunds. Basic echocardiographic data, including M-mode, 2D and spectral Doppler mea- surements, was collected, analyzed and compared between 41 healthy Dachshunds and 50 other healthy dogs of similar weight. Echocardiographic reference intervals were prepared for Dachs- hunds. Dachshunds had a smaller left ventricular diameter in diastole and systole and a thicker septum than other dog breeds. Male Dachshunds had larger diastolic and systolic left ventricular diameter than females. Reference intervals for 2D and M-mode measurements in healthy Dachs- hunds differ from other dogs of similar weight and should be used for this breed to assess cham- ber enlargement.

Combining Sequence-Specific Probes and DNA Binding Dyes in Real-Time PCR for Specific Nucleic Acid Quantification and Melting Curve Analysis

Currently, in real-time PCR, one often has to choose between using a sequence-specific probe and a nonspecific double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) binding dye for the detection of amplified DNA products. The sequence-specific probe has the advantage that it only detects the targeted product, while the nonspecific dye has the advantage that melting curve analysis can be performed after completed amplification, which reveals what kind of products have been formed. Here we present a new strategy based on combining a sequence-specific probe and a nonspecific dye, BOXTO, in the same reaction, to take the advantage of both chemistries. We show that BOXTO can be used together with both TaqMan probes and locked nucleic acid (LNA) probes without interfering with the PCR. The probe signal reflect formation of target product, while melting curve analysis of the BOXTO signal reveals primer-dimer formation and the presence of any other anomalous products.

Multiple Sessions of Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy Improve Periodontal Outcomes in Patients with Down Syndrome: A 12-Month Randomized Clinical Trial

Background/Objectives: Individuals with Down syndrome (DS) often present with severe periodontal disease at a young age. Adjuvant treatments to scaling and root planing (SRP), such as antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT), may benefit this population. This study evaluated the effectiveness of aPDT as an adjunct to SRP in individuals with DS. A randomized, double-blind, parallel trial was conducted with 37 individuals with DS. Methods: The test group (aPDT; n = 18) received SRP + aPDT, while the control group (C group; n = 19) received SRP only. For aPDT, a red laser (658 nm; 0.1 W; 2229 J/cm²; 40s sweeping with optical fiber) combined with methylene blue (MB) (100 µg/ml) was applied across repeated sessions (on days 3, 7, and 14). Clinical parameters, such as plaque index (PI), clinical attachment level (CAL), probing depth (PD), and bleeding on probing (BOP), were recorded at baseline and after 3, 6, and 12 months of treatment. Statistical analyses were performed using parametric and non-parametric tests (p &amp;amp;lt; 0.05). Results: Both treatments promoted improvements in all clinical periodontal parameters (p &amp;amp;gt; 0.05). The aPDT group showed a statistically significant reduction in CAL at 3 months (aPDT = 4.58 mm vs. C = 4.72 mm; p &amp;amp;lt; 0.05) and 12 months (aPDT = 4.59 mm vs. C = 4.84 mm; p &amp;amp;lt; 0.05). Conclusions: aPDT improved periodontal health in the long term through a stable gain in attachment.

Technology and the servicelisation of labour: from immateriality to innovative uncertainty

This article discusses the concepts of servicelisation of labour and innovation in complex organisational contexts. We consider that, at the present stage of societal development, the expansion of services itself represents the course from one industrial model to another, i.e. to a set of ways or methods of producing that are different. It is thus possible to speak of a configuration of users. In a service economy, the service products are global and are not generally decomposable, so that it is the customer/user who assesses the satisfaction involved in consuming them, even being able to intervene in their production. Besides, technology and immateriality are now fundamental to the service logic. This article also proposes some alternative ways for analysing the organisational structures dealing with such new phenomena.

The Impact of Psychological Factors on Adherence to a Therapeutic Exercise Program Among Burn Survivors

Adherence to rehabilitation activities following burn injury is a critical component of regaining physical and social functioning. The factors that negatively influence adherence are not well understood. Some researchers suggest that poor adherence stems from a desire to avoid pain or physical harm while other investigators emphasize the importance of cognitive and behavioral influences on the likelihood to adhere. The objective of the present study was to assess the role of specific psychological factors on the successful completion of a 12-week exercise program in a sample of burn survivors. Subjects were 30 adult outpatients who were enrolled in a randomized, controlled clinical trial of augmented strength and aerobic training following burn injury (mean TBSA = 17%). At baseline subjects completed the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), a standardized measure of clinical symptoms of depression, and the Adherence Determinants Questionnaire (ADQ), a validated instrument used to assess general factors affecting adherence to medical directives. Adherence behavior was defined as successful completion of the exercise program. Nonparametric statistics were conducted to examine the relation between cognitions and adherence, and potential differences between program completers and non-completers.

The Gospel of Thomas

This book, first published in 2002, offers an authoritative and accessible introduction to the New Testament and early Christian literature for all students of the Bible and anyone interested in the origins of Christianity. It is designed primarily for undergraduate courses in the New Testament, biblical studies and early Christianity. Delbert Burkett focuses on the New Testament, but also looks at a wealth of non-biblical writing to examine the history, religion and literature of Christianity in the years from 30 CE to 150 CE. An appendix containing translations of primary texts allows instant access to the writings outside the canon. With this textbook and the Bible, the student should therefore have all the necessary basic texts. The book is organised systematically with questions for in-class discussion and written assignment, step-by-step reading guides on individual works, special box features, charts, maps and numerous illustrations designed to facilitate student use.

<i>In Vivo</i> Dissolution and Systemic Absorption of Immediate Release Ibuprofen in Human Gastrointestinal Tract under Fed and Fasted Conditions

In vivo drug dissolution in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is largely unmeasured. The purpose of this clinical study was to evaluate the in vivo drug dissolution and systemic absorption of the BCS class IIa drug ibuprofen under fed and fasted conditions by direct sampling of stomach and small intestinal luminal content. Expanding current knowledge of drug dissolution in vivo will help to establish physiologically relevant in vitro models predictive of drug dissolution. A multilumen GI catheter was orally inserted into the GI tract of healthy human subjects. Subjects received a single oral dose of ibuprofen (800 mg tablet) with 250 mL of water under fasting and fed conditions. The GI catheter facilitated collection of GI fluid from the stomach, duodenum, and jejunum. Ibuprofen concentration in GI fluid supernatant and plasma was determined by LC-MS/MS. A total of 23 subjects completed the study, with 11 subjects returning for an additional study visit (a total of 34 completed study visits). The subjects were primarily white (61%) and male (65%) with an average age of 30 years. The subjects had a median [min, max] weight of 79 [52, 123] kg and body mass index of 25.7 [19.4, 37.7] kg/m<sup>2</sup>. Ibuprofen plasma levels were higher under fasted conditions and remained detectable for 28 h under both conditions. The AUC<sub>0-24</sub> and C<sub>max</sub> were lower in fed subjects vs fasted subjects, and T<sub>max</sub> was delayed in fed subjects vs fasted subjects. Ibuprofen was detected immediately after ingestion in the stomach under fasting and fed conditions until 7 h after dosing. Higher levels of ibuprofen were detected in the small intestine soon after dosing in fasted subjects compared to fed. In contrast to plasma drug concentration, overall gastric concentrations remained higher under fed conditions due to increased gastric pH vs fasting condition. The gastric pH increased to near neutrality after feedingbefore decreasing to acidic levels after 7 h. Induction of the fed state reduced systemic levels but increased gastric levels of ibuprofen, which suggest that slow gastric emptying and transit dominate the effect for plasma drug concentration. The finding of high levels of ibuprofen in stomach and small intestine 7 h post dosing was unexpected. Future work is needed to better understand the role of various GI parameters, such as motility and gastric emptying, on systemic ibuprofen levels in order to improve in vitro predictive models.

Consumers Perceptions and Preference for Strawberries—A Case Study from Germany

Amid a wide array of fruits available in the international market, strawberry has gained high praise among consumers for its unique taste and health benefits. Today’s consumers are more knowledgeable and they are in demand of high quality, nutritionally versatile, and safer plant produce. This has forced both researchers and manufacturers to monitor food production, transportation, and marketing. Based on this background, a detailed ‘online, web-based survey’ was conducted in Germany, which involved consideration of various criteria and consumers’ preferences for strawberries, relevant to the buying behavior, physical attributes, sensorial and nutritional qualities, storage trends, and gastronomy. Our questionnaires were designed based on available research reports/database on strawberries, common knowledge of consumers, and discussions made with local farmers. Results showed frequency of strawberries consumption to be dominated during spring/summer (˜46%). In addition, the majority of the consumers preferred to have strawberries without any physical injuries (˜43%), while an equal percentage of them still accepted strawberries with visible squashy spots (˜43%). Overall, consumers preferred strawberries with uniform color (˜43%), sweet taste (˜66%) with intense or fruity aroma (˜92%) and moderately juicy (˜58%). Results generated in this survey highlight the demands and preferences of consumers as well as indicated certain major gaps that require to be filled along the strawberry production chains for better marketability. Being a first detailed survey, this report is envisaged to be of immense help in enhancing needs and preferences of consumers for strawberries not only in Germany, but also for consumers and growers the world over.

The Personalisation of Politics at the Local Level in Poland and Selected Central and Eastern European States: A Contribution to the Research

Abstract Images about politics take a specific form in the imagination of the electorate, eliciting specific associations and thus becoming a source of attitudes and influencing election preferences. At the same time, the increasing importance of politicians’ perceived personality traits and images has been observed. Empirical studies of politicians’ personalities provide one of the more effective tools for studying the basic features of the personalisation of politics, including at a local level. Such studies involve the measurement of citizens’ perceptions of politicians’ personality traits. This article seeks to systematise key concepts and provide an introduction to conducting advanced empirical research in this area.

Calixthe Beyala: Prizes, Plagiarism, and ?Authenticity?

In 1996, Calixthe Beyala was twice accused of plagiarism. One of the accusations led to her being found guilty in the High Court in Paris. Pardoxically, in that same year she was awarded the highly prestigious Grand Prix du roman de l'Académie Française for one of the novels in which she had allegedly plagiarized. Focusing mainly on Beyala's responses to the allegations of 1996, this essay considers the consequences of what has become known as the "Beyala Affair." Beyala's situation is unique in that she is both a consecrated, best-selling "authentic" African author and a proven literary "fake." I suggest that by playing with notions of "authenticity" and "fakery," Beyala tests the limits of tolerance for an African woman writer in France.

Biologically Active Insect Peptides

Neuropeptides reveal a new approach to understanding insect life processes and the development of measures to control these processes. Peptide structural characterization and structure-activity studies allow expansion of analysis beyond the peptide itself into molecular genetics, precursor identification, biosynthesis and processing, receptor binding, and degradation. Robust bioassays and initial peptide purifications are essential. Integration of these technologies, from bioassay through gene sequencing, presents unique opportunities for the development of potent, flexible and specific control measures which will include production of antagonists and superagonists, delivery of fusion peptides to target pests by the baculovirus system, development of peptidomimetics, receptor blockers, enzyme inhibitors and poisons.

Migraine as a Metabolic Disease

Migraine is classified as a neurovascular disease and most treatment is aimed at pain prevention or release. However, the cause of migraine is poorly understood and medicinal treatments often fail. Here we identify that genetic metabolic sensitivities are the cause of migraine and demonstrate that migraine treatment and prevention is possible without the use of medicines. We summarize available research and logically lead to key points that show that migraine is a metabolic disease. Although we did not run laboratory experiments, we used surveys and self‐reporting in a migraine group on Facebook with thousands of members of whom several hundred agreed to participate with surveys, reports, and metadata research. The outcome showed that genetic mutation caused metabolic changes make migraineurs sensitive extremely to carbohydrates and to the difficulties associated with the maintenance of electrolyte homeostasis, which is easily disrupted by the consumption of carbohydrates. When migraineurs became aware and reduced their dietary carbohydrates, managed their electrolytes by increasing sodium and potassium rich foods, increased water and fat in their diet, migraines were prevented. The changes were strong enough to encourage migraineurs to quit all their medicines, surgically remove their neuronal stimulators, and remained migraine free—some almost three years by now, the start of our research.
