Kualitas Hidup Anak Remaja pada Keluarga dengan HIV/AIDS di Indonesia
Get PDFEpidemi HIV/AIDS mempunyai dampak pada sosial ekonomi keluarga, terutama terhadap kualitas hidup anak remaja (12-18 tahun). Untuk melihat dampak HIV/AIDS dalam keluarga terhadap kualitas hidup remaja dan untuk mengidentifikasi berbagai faktor yang mempengaruhi besar dampak itu, telah dilakukan penelitian dengan menggunakan data survei tentang AIDS yang dikumpulkan tahun 2007 oleh Pusat Penelitian Kesehatan Universitas Indonesia. Variabel komposit yang terdiri variabel pendidikan, lingkungan sosial, dan aktivitas fisik, yang dikategorikan menjadi kurang baik dan baik, digunakan untuk mengukur kualitas hidup. Variabel-variabel ini kemudian dianalisis dengan regresi logistik untuk melihat besar dampak HIV/AIDS dalam keluarga, rumah tangga, dan anak terhadap kualitas hidupremaja. Hasil studi menunjukkan bahwa keberadaan HIV/AIDS dalam keluarga berdampak buruk terhadap kualitas hidup remaja (OR = 1,6). Dampak buruk ini lebih parah apabila remaja mendapat pengasuhan kurang baik (OR = 1,7) terutama bila pengasuhnya laki-laki (OR = 2,8) danpendidikannya rendah (OR = 2,4). Pengaruh buruk tersebut ditemukan sama pada remaja perempuan dan remaja laki-laki.

To assess the impact of HIV/AIDS in the family on the quality of life of adolescents and identify factors determining the extent of the impact, a research has beencarried out using survey data on AIDS collected in 2007 by Center for Health Research, University of Indonesia. A composite variable consisting of education, social environment, and physical activity variables, which was categorized as less good and good, was employed to measure the quality of life. These variables were then subjected to multi-variable logistic regression analysis to examine the extent of impact of HIV/AIDS status in the family, household, and child towards the quality of life of adolescents. This analysis showed that HIV/AIDS in the family had adverse impact on the life of adolescents (OR = 1,6). The impact was worse on adolescents who lack of care (OR = 1,7), especially if the care givers were male (OR = 2,8) and hadlow level of education (OR = 2,4). The adverse impact was similar on both female and male adolescents.Key words: HIV/AIDS in family, quality of life, adolescents, child car
Impact of HIV/AIDS in the family on children’s quality of life
Get PDFAim: An AIDS epidemic has a negative social and economic impact to the families. The aim of the study is to explore the impact of HIV/AIDS in the family to the quality of life of the children, including other factors that might interfere.
Methods: The study utilized the data of a survey conducted by the Health Research Center of the University of Indonesia (2007), in seven provinces consisting of 379 households (HH) with HIV and 370 HH without HIV. Child’s quality of life was measured at ages 5 to 11 years (pre-adolescent) using a composite of three variables (education, social environment, and physical activity), and was scored as ‘poor’ and ‘good’ . Multiple logistic regression was performed to examine the impact of HIV/AIDS, household and child factor towards the child’s quality of life.
Results: The presence of an HIV/AIDS patient in the HH increases the risk of poor quality of life 1.59 times comparedto the risk in HH without HIV/AIDS. If the child is a female, the risk of poor quality of life increases 1.50 times compared to male children. A child who is poorly taken care of faces a 1.55 times higher risk of poor quality of life compared to children who are well taken care of. In younger children (5-7 yrs) the risk of poor quality of life increases 1.60 times compared to older children (8-11 yrs).
Conclusion: The study showed that when a member of the family is infected with HIV, it will negatively affect the quality of life of a pre-teen child in that family. This negative effect is higher when the child is a female, does not receive proper care, and of younger age. (Med J Indones 2010; 19:280-6)

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
Inadequate Antenatal Care Visits and Risks of Infant Mortality in Rural District: Kunjungan Antenatal Care yang tidak Memadai dan Risiko Kematian Bayi di Daerah Pedesaan
No full textIntroduction: Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) in Indonesia has decreased over the last fifteen years, but still left behind from other South-East Asia countries. One of the efforts to reduce IMR is antenatal care. However, there are disparity of antenatal care coverage between rural and urban area.
Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of antenatal care on infant mortality in rural district in Indonesia.
Methods: The quantitative study used cross-sectional secondary data from Indonesia Demographic Health Survey 2017 with a total sample of 7.551 most recent born infant in 2012-2017 from women with childbearing age who’s live in rural district. Logistic regression multivariate analysis was used to determine the effect of antenatal care and infant mortality.
Results: The results show that antenatal care reduce risk of infant mortality. Infants whose mothers had 1-3 antenatal care visits (OR = 3; 95% CI = 1.6 – 5.3) and no antenatal care visits (OR = 3; 95% CI = 1.6 – 5.5) had higher odds compared to infants whose mother had 4 or more antenatal care visits after controlled by social-economic status, maternal occupation, parity, and tetanus immunization.
Conclusions: Empowering community empowerment with the help of community health workers and midwives is needed to target women with low social economic status. Studies and regulations for pregnant and lactating women at work also needed to reduce infant mortality. Further research involving quality of antenatal care and more covariates variables might be carried out.
 
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
