EDUKASI PENTINGNYA AKTIVITAS FISIK UNTUK MENURUNKAN RISIKO SERANGAN STROKE BAGI LANSIA
Full text linkABSTRAKStroke adalah salah satu penyebab utama kematian dan disabilitas di dunia. Walapun serangan stroke dapat menyerang individu dari segala usia, tetapi semakin bertambahnya usia maka semakin besar kemungkinan untuk terkena serangan stroke. Secara bertahap lansia akan terus mengalami penurunan fungsional dan fisiologis tubuh yang merupakan akumulasi dari degenerasi yang akan mengarah pada berbagai risiko terkena penyakit termasuk serangan stroke. Diketahui seseorang yang sedang atau sangat aktif melakukan aktivitas fisik memiliki risiko kejadian serangan stroke atau kematian yang lebih rendah dibandingkan mereka yang memiliki tingkat aktivitas fisik yang rendah. Tujuan dari kegiatan ini adalah untuk memberikan informasi dan meningkatkan pengetahuan lansia tentang penyakit stroke, tanda dan gejala awal, faktor risiko penyakit stroke, waktu yang tepat untuk harus ke Rumah Sakit serta pentingnya aktivitas fisik untuk menurunkan risiko serangan stroke bagi lansia. Metode dalam kegiatan ini adalah dilakukan dengan sosialisasi materi dan melakukan contoh latihan. Adapun tahapan kegiatan terbagi menjadi 5 tahapan yaitu tahap persiapan dan analisis kebutuhan, tahap perencanaan model kegiatan, tahap pembuatan materi edukasi, tahap pelaksanaan kegiatan dan tahap evaluasi kegiatan. Hasil dari kegiatan yang dilakukan berdasarkan observasi, pre-test dan post-test untuk mengetahui dampak dari kegiatan edukasi menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pengetahuan dari informasi yang disampaikan pada materi saat pelaksanaan kegiatan. Dari hasil pengolahan data didapatkan nilai sebesar 86,48% dari lansia peserta kegiatan dapat memahami materi yang diberikan. Diperlukan pengawasan secara berkala khususnya pada program yang berkaitan dengan olahraga untuk melakukan program aktivitas fisik bersama secara rutin dengan intensitas yang menyesuaikan kondisi dan kebutuhan lansia serta meningkatkan kreatifitas bentuk aktivitas agar meningkatnya antusias para lansia. Kata kunci: lansia; stroke; aktivitas fisik ABSTRACTStroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability in the world. Even though a stroke can strike individuals of all ages, the older you get, the more likely you are to have a stroke. Gradually the elderly will continue to experience functional and physiological decline in the body which is an accumulation of degeneration which will lead to various risks of disease including stroke. It is known that someone who is or is very active in physical activity has a lower risk of stroke or death than those who have a low level of physical activity. The purpose of this activity is to provide information and increase the knowledge of the elderly about stroke, early signs and symptoms, risk factors for stroke, the right time to go to the hospital and the importance of physical activity to reduce the risk of stroke for the elderly. The method in this activity is carried out by socializing the material and doing sample exercises. The activity stages are divided into 5 stages, namely the preparation and needs analysis stage, the activity model planning stage, the educational material creation stage, the activity implementation stage and the activity evaluation stage. The results of the activities carried out based on observation, pre-test and post-test to determine the impact of educational activities indicate an increase in knowledge from the information conveyed in the material during the implementation of the activity. From the results of data processing, it was obtained a value of 86.48% of the elderly participants in the activity being able to understand the material provided. Periodic supervision is needed, especially in programs related to sports to carry out routine joint physical activity programs with an intensity that adapts to the conditions and needs of the elderly and increases the creativity of activity forms so that the enthusiasm of the elderly increases.

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
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
PROGRAM AKTIVITAS FISIK UNTUK MENURUNKAN RISIKO DEMENSIA PADA LANSIA
Full text linkABSTRAKPertambahan usia pada lansia cenderung diiringi dengan menurunnya kapasitas intrinsik dan kapabilitas fungsional tubuh yang berdampak pada kesehatan sehingga morbiditas semakin banyak ditemukan pada lansia. Aktivitas fisik telah diketahui memiliki relevansi dengan status kesehatan dan merupakan salah satu faktor modifikasi gaya hidup yang dapat dilakukan untuk mengurangi perkembangan faktor risiko demensia. Tujuan kegiatan pengabdian ini adalah untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan serta keterampilan caregiver dan lansia tentang demensia dan program aktivitas fisik untuk menurunkan risiko demensia pada lansia. Metode pelaksanaan kegiatan pengabdian yaitu dengan pelatihan program yang dilakukan dengan beberapa tahapan, diantaranya persiapan, pelaksanaan dan evaluasi kegiatan. Sasaran dalam kegiatan pengabdian ini sebanyak 4 caregiver dan 25 lansia. Evaluasi kegiatan dilakukan dengan memberikan pre-test dan post-test serta melakukan observasi redemonstrasi program aktivitas fisik oleh peserta untuk mengetahui dampak kegiatan pengabdian yang dilakukan. Hasil kegiatan pengabdian yang dilakukan menunjukkan bahwa terjadinya peningkatan pengetahuan sebelum dan sesudah kegiatan serta peningkatan keterampilan melakukan simulasi praktik program aktivitas fisik sebesar 82,75%. Diperlukan monitoring hasil pelatihan secara berkala pada caregiver untuk mengawasi dan para lansia di rukun senior living sentul sehingga dapat melakukan aktivitas fisik secara rutin 3-5 hari dalam seminggu dengan frekuensi, intensitas, tipe latihan serta durasi yang sesuai dengan kebutuhan dan kondisi lansia. Kata kunci: demensia; aktivitas fisik; lansia ABSTRACTIncreasing age of the elderly will be accompanied by a decrease in the intrinsic capacity and functional capabilities of the body which has an impact on health and morbidity which is increasingly found in the elderly. Physical activity is known to have relevance to health status and is one of the lifestyle modification factors that can be done to reduce the development of dementia risk factors. The purpose of this community service activity is to increase the knowledge and skills of caregivers and the elderly about dementia and physical activity programs to reduce the risk of dementia in the elderly. The method of implementing community service activities is through program training which is carried out in several stages, including preparation, implementation and evaluation of activities. The targets in this community service activity were 4 caregivers and 25 elderly people. Evaluation of activities is carried out by giving pre-tests and post-tests as well as observing redemonstrations of physical activity programs by participants to determine the impact of community service activities carried out. The results of the service activities carried out showed that there was an increase in knowledge before and after the activity as well as an increase in skills in conducting practical simulations of physical activity programs by 82.75%. It is necessary to periodically monitor the results of training for caregivers to supervise and the elderly in the Rukun Senior Living Sentul that they can carry out physical activities regularly 3-5 days a week with frequency, intensity, type of exercise and duration according to the needs and conditions of the elderly.

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
