PENYEBAB GANGGUAN PENGLIHATAN DAN KEBUTAAN PADA ANAK
No full textPendahuluan: Pencegahan kebutaan pada anak karena penyebab yang dapat dihindari (avoidable blindness) menjadi salah satu prioritas dari World Health Organization (WHO). Prevalensi kebutaan pada anak-anak sebesar 6,3 per 10.000 anak. Gangguan penglihatan pada anak akan mengganggu perkembangan fungsi visual, motorik, dan kognitif serta psikososial. Sekitar 50% penyebab gangguan penglihatan dan kebutaan pada anak dapat dihindari. Tata laksana yang tepat akan menurunkan angka kejadian kebutaan pada anak sehingga diperlukan identifikasi penyebab kebutaan pada anak. Metode: Pencarian literatur dilakukan dengan menggunakan search engine di beberapa database seperti PubMed, EuropePMC, Science Direct, dan Springer link dengan menggunakan kata kunci terkait topik. Hasil: Penyebab kebutaan pada anak sangat bervariasi dan dapat diklasifikasikan berdasarkan kelainan pada lokasi anatomi mata dan organ lain yang terlibat. Kesimpulan: Penyebab gangguan penglihatan dan kebutaan pada anak dijumpai paling banyak adalah kelainan pada bola mata secara keseluruhan

Studi ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh hipertensi terhadap gangguan fungsi kognitif, khususnya pada populasi lanjut usia. Studi ini dibuat menyesuaikan PRISMA melalui database PubMed, Science Direct, Europe PMC, Willey Online Library, Sage Journal, dan DOAJ dengan pemfokusan pada hipertensi dan fungsi kognitif pada lansia. Terpilih lima studi terpilih dengan partisipan berjumlah 16.435. Hasil observasi berupa adanya pengaruh hipertensi terhadap gangguan fungsi kognitif pada lansia, terutama pada domain memori dan kecepatan pemrosesan. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa tingginya tekanan darah, baik sistolik maupun diastolik, berpengaruh terhadap gangguan fungsi kognitif
DISTRIBUTION AND INTENSITY OF MUSCULOSKELETAL PAIN AMONG RECREATIONAL DEADLIFT USERS IN PALEMBANG: A CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY
No full textDeadlift is a resistance training exercise commonly used to enhance muscle strength, but improper technique can increase the risk of musculoskeletal pain. This study aimed to analyze the distribution and intensity of musculoskeletal pain in recreational deadlift users using a cross-sectional design. A total of 42 respondents from two gym communities in Palembang were selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected via questionnaires and analyzed descriptively. The results showed that 48.9% of respondents had poor posture during deadlift, and the majority (66.7%) lifted heavy loads (≥70% of 1RM). Musculoskeletal pain was most frequently reported in the lower back (85.3%), followed by the glutes (8.8%) and the right shoulder (5.9%). Most respondents experienced mild pain (37.8%) or no pain at all (37.8%), while moderate pain was reported by 24.4% of respondents. No cases of severe pain were recorded. These findings indicate that although deadlift can cause musculoskeletal discomfort, the pain intensity is generally tolerable
Potential of Sriwijaya Thermal Cycler Smart Controlling-Based as a Tool for DNA Sequence Polymerase Chain Reaction
Get PDFIntroduction. Along with the COVID-19 pandemic, the need for a thermal cyclerdevice for examining COVID-19 is getting bigger. Many laboratories have overusedthe use of thermal cyclers due to the limited availability of this tool. This study aimsto test the effectiveness of the Sriwijaya thermal cycler based on a smart controllerin conducting PCR DNA sequences. Methods. The research design was anexperimental study with a posttest control group approach, in order to see anoverview of the results of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in the form ofintermediate DNA bands using Sriwijaya Thermal Cycler compared to groups usingfactory-made Thermal cyclers. Results. The PCR results showed precise results fromthe image and band separation, and there was a clear separation of the bands onthe marker. The PCR results from the ACE I / D gene showed quite good and optimalresults in the separation of the PCR results band. Conclusion. Sriwijaya thermalcycler is effective in DNA polymerase chain reaction (PCR) sequences comparable tothat of the manufacturer's Thermal Cycler
MUSCULOSKELETAL DISORDER ASSOCIATED WITH DEVICE USAGE AT THE TEACHER PROFESSION
No full text. One of the most common diseases in workers is musculoskeletal disorders. where the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders in teachers is around 39% to 95%. Most teachers experience chronic musculoskeletal disorders and subjective complaints, one of which is pain in the upper limbs. Some studies show the relationship between gadgets and user posture can cause discomfort and fatigue in the hands, elbows, and shoulders. This article discuss about the use of gadgets in an unergonomic position often results in musculoskeletal complaints. Static loading by holding handheld devices or gadgets for long periods, often with unergonomic postures and excessive use of muscles in the upper limbs, is likely to contribute to myofascial pain syndrome in the muscles of the hands and arms, resulting in pain in the upper limbs
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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
Get PDF“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
Get PDFWe 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 PDFWe 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
