EFEKTIVITAS INTERVENSI KOMPRES ALOEVERA TERHADAP PENURUNAN SUHU TUBUH ANAK FEVER DI PUSKESMAS BAHBIAK KOTA PEMATANGSIANTAR KEC. SIANTAR MARIMBUN TAHUN 2020
Full text linkFever in children is a condition that often causes serious problems in children. Fever occurs at temperatures >37.5ºC usually caused by autoimmune infections and diseases. The World Health Organization (WHO) states that the number of diseases in children with fever symptoms is 62% with a mortality rate of 33%. Giving Aloe Vera compresses is one of the non-phamacological interventions that can reduce dampness. The purpose of this study was to find out how the effectiveness of Aloe Vera Compress Intervention on Decreasing body temperature in children with fever. The research design used One group pretest-posttest. The variables in this research are Aloe Vera Compress as an independent variable and Decrease in body temperature in Fever children as the dependent variable. The population in this study were all pediatric patients aged 5-11 years who experienced fever at the Bahbiak Health Center in Pematangsiantar City, Siantar Marimbun District. Sampling using purposive sampling technique of 12 respondents. The intervention carried out compresses Aloe Vera for 15 minutes. Temperature measurement using a digital thermometer. Data were collected by observation sheets and tested by Paired Sample-Test. The results showed that there was a change in the body temperature of the Fever child. The results of Shaphiro-Wilk normality test results of body temperature before giving Aloe Vera compress is 130 and body temperature after giving Aloe Vera compress is 037. Paired Sample-Test statistical test results show data ρ = 0,000 <α = 0.05 then Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. which means that there is an effectiveness in administering Aloe Vera compresses to reduce body temperature of children aged 5-11 years of fever. It is hoped that health workers can apply non-pharmacological therapies such as aloe vera compresses for a decrease in a child's body temperature

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Lowering Blood Pressure Through The Consumption Of Carrot Juice (Honey Carrot) In Hypertension Patients
Full text linkThe high rate of hypertension causes hypertension to be a problem that must be overcome. In herbal medicine with the therapy of giving wordu juice (honey carrots), it contains potassium which can maintain blood pressure and aceticolin which helps improve blood vessel circulation. To determine the effect of giving Wordu juice (carrots and honey) on the reduction of blood pressure in patients with hypertension. The research design used a pre-experimental design with a one group pretest-posttest design. The variables in this study were Wordu Juice (Honey Carrot) as the independent variable and hypertension sufferers as the dependent variable. The population in this study were all hypertension patients at Biru-Biru Health Center in 2021. Sampling in this study used a non-probability sampling method by accidental sampling, in which the researcher took a sample based on predetermined criteria as many as 28 respondents. Data were collected using observation sheets and tested by t test. The results of the analysis using the dependent T test in patients with hypertension can be concluded that the pretest and posttest systolic experimental group with a sample of 28 respondents had a P-value (0.001) <? 0.05, then H0 was rejected. Posttest on Hypertension Patients in the Work area of ??the Binjai Village Health Center. It is hoped that health workers can apply non-pharmacological therapies such as herbal medicine. Giving Wordu Juice to treat hypertension so that the services provided can be of higher quality and the services are carried out more precisely
Variations on the Author
Full text link“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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
Full text linkWe 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
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe 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
