    Cervical cancer is one of the most common types of cancer suffered by women in developing countries, including Indonesia. This condition occurs due to lack of knowledge about prevention and detecting early symptoms of cervical cancer, especially in areas far from public health service centers. The purpose of this community partnership program is to help government programs to reduce the incidence of cervical cancer through counseling and interactive dialogue to increase the knowledge of partners and their families about cervical cancer and pap smears as screening for cervical cancer, which was carried out in the village of Gali Ukir Pupuan Tabanan, then carried out assisting partner family members in providing information about cervical cancer and pap smears to the surrounding community, as well as visits to monitor family members who are willing to carry out pap smears, and providing assistance in the form of pap smear examinations, giving antiseptics for the vagina, pocket books that can be used as guidelines for giving information about cervical cancer and its prevention, as well as providing a blender that can be used to make anti-septic from nearby plants and to make nutritious drinks to increase immunity. The results obtained are in the form of increased knowledge and changes in thinking patterns about cervical cancer and there are family members who do pap smear examinations

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    In 2021 there were 10 breast cases from the Baturiti sub-district which carried out examinations in the PA laboratory at Tabanan Hospital. 6 of them (60%) turned out to be cases of malignancy, and 4 of them (66.66%) stage III and IV which are the final stages of breast cancer. Perean Kangin Village which is one of the villages in the Baturiti sub-district with the most cases of breast tumors. The long-lasting pandemic has contributed to the decreased activity of cadres and increased delays in breast cancer screening. If the patient can be detected early and get treatment as soon as possible, it will give hope for recovery and a better life expectancy. One of the early detection of breast cancer is breast self-examination (BSE). It is hoped that re-activating midwives and village cadres will motivate the community to do BSE. The result of this PKM was an increase in the knowledge and attitude of cadres towards BSE. We also provide investment goods in the form of digital baby and adult weight measuring devices, stunting mats and height measuring devices for early detection of health problems

    Overexpression of PDL-1 is a risk factor for lymph node metastasis in cervical cancer

    Cervical cancer is the fourth most prevalent malignancy in women globally and and the 2nd in Indonesia. In 2008, the Indonesian Cancer Foundation projected that 52 million Indonesian women are at risk for cervical cancer, and that 36% of all cancer patients are cervical cancer patients. Increasing by 0.6% per year. There are 9,496 cervical cancer-related deaths in Indonesia, compared to an estimated 24,400 worldwide. The crude incidence rate of cervical cancer in Indonesia is 17 per 100.000 women. The majority of individuals with cervical cancer who passed away have received chemotherapy and radiation therapy. In recent years, tremendous progress has been made in immune therapy studies focused at preventing cancers from evading the immune response of the tumor. Among them is PD-I research. The association between PD-1 and its PDL-1 ligand suppresses cytotoxic T cells in the immune response to tumors. PDL-1 overexpression was also associated with a poor prognosis in a few other carcinomas. This study intends to determine whether PDL I overexpression is a risk factor for cervical cell carcinoma metastasis. Metastasis is indicative of a poor prognosis in cancer.&nbsp

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
