“This could die on a vine”: Keeping a Student Journal Alive
Full text linkSlides presented at Student Journal Forum, February 18-20, 2025.
Presenting journal: IYARICHow do you keep a new and fledgling student journal alive? In this session, we aim to offer strategies that we have used to sustain the graduate student-run journal - IYARIC. First published in 2022, the journal emerged as one response to elevate the scholarship and voice of Black and Indigenous graduate students whose scholarly work and interest is in the Latin America and Caribbean region. Since then, we have and continue to work to build and sustain our very small journal so that it does not “die on a vine.” In this session, the editor-in-chief will draw on the experience of managing IYARIC over the last couple of years to offer insights on the challenges faced by and opportunities available to new journals that are housed in small intellectual communities; to map the strategies used and are currently being tried to build and sustain the journal, with attention to our grounding in the principles of equity, diversity, inclusion, and decolonization (EDID) ; and, to share the outcomes of our efforts to date. As we are currently navigating the murky waters of keeping our baby journal alive and supporting it to maturation, this presentation will be a live snapshot our in-progress work

Kinematic and Kinetic analysis of Lower Limb Before and After Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) in a Chinese Population
No full textTo acquire a better understanding of how individuals adapt to knee osteoarthritis (KOA) and assess the effect of TKA, 3D gait analysis was conducted 17 pre-TKA KOA patients, 10 post-TKA KOA patients and 12 age-matched control subjects. Principle component analysis was used to extract waveform characteristics. Improved function was observed after TKA, but the overall lower limb capacity of post-TKA patients at 4 month post-surgery was still far below that of the control subjects. Post-TKA patients were characterized by reduced knee flexion, delayed joint motion and more gentle moments and ground reaction curves compared to controls.Nature Science Foundation of China [51275267]CPCI-S(ISTP)1701-170

Muscle loaded stability reflects ligament-based stability in TKA: a cadaveric study
No full textPurpose This paper aims at evaluating the effects of muscle load on knee kinematics and stability after TKA and second at evaluating the effect of TKA surgery on knee kinematics and stability; and third, at correlating the stability in passive conditions and the stability in active, muscle loaded conditions. Methods Fourteen fresh frozen cadaveric knee specimens were tested under passive and active condition with and without external loads involving a varus/valgus and internal/external rotational torque before and after TKA surgery using two in-house developed and previously validated test setups. Results Introduction of muscle force resulted in increased valgus (0.98 degrees) and internal rotation of the femur (4.64 degrees). TKA surgery also affected the neutral path kinematics, resulting in more varus (1.25 degrees) and external rotation of the femur (5.22 degrees). All laxities were significantly reduced by the introduction of the muscle load and after implantation of the TKA. The presence of the implant significantly affects the active varus/valgus laxity. This contrasts with the rotational laxity, in which case the passive laxity is the main determinant for the active laxity. For the varus/valgus laxity, the passive laxity is also a significant predictor of the active laxity. Conclusion Knee stability is clearly affected by the presence of muscle load. This points to the relevance of appropriate rehabilitation with focus on avoiding muscular atrophy. At the same time, the functional, muscle loaded stability strongly relates to the passive, ligament-based stability. It remains therefore important to assess knee stability at the time of surgery, since the passive laxity is the only predictor for functional stability in the operating theatre.The institution (department of orthopaedics, University hospital Ghent) has received funding from Smith and Nephew (research grant).

No full textABSTRAK
Komunikasi merupakan bagian yang paling penting dalam
kehidupan sehari-hari. Dalam berkomunikasi memiliki beberapa
bentuk antara lain, komunikasi intrapersonal, komunikasi
antarpersonal, komunikasi kelompok dan komunikasi massa. Perlu
disadari bahwa peran komunikasi sangat penting dalam kehidupan
bersosialisasi, bahkan dalam kegiatan belajar mengajar.
Pola komunikasi dakwah langsung dan tidak langsung yang
digunakan Da’I (Guru Agama) dalam pembinaan karakter terhadap
Mad’u (Murid) merupakan sebuah komuikasi yang sangat penting
dalam menyampaikan pesannya kepada para murid tersebut. Banyak
sekali fenomena-fenomena yang terjadi di Taman Pendidikan Kanak�Kanak Al-Qur’an mengenai anak-anak dalam berfikir dan bersikap
lain dengan yang diajarkan oleh gurunya. Bahwasanya tujuan guru
dalam kegiatan belajar mengajar adalah untuk dapat mencerdaskan
dan meningkatkan kualitas murid mereka. Maka hal itu
dipermasalahkan dalam proses berkomunikasi yang disampaikan oleh
guru kepada muridnya. Sebagai seorang Da’I yang menyampaikan
ajaran Islam, rumusan masalah yang digunakan adalah (1) Bagaimana
komunikasi dakwah Da’I (guru) dalam membentuk karakter Mad’u
(Murid) di TKA/TPA BABUL JANNAH Jagabaya III, Bandar
Lampung? (2) Proses komunikasi dakwah Da’I (guru) dalam
membentuk karakter Mad’u (Murid) di TKA/TPA BABUL JANNAH
Jagabaya III, Bandar Lampung? (3) Keefektifan komunikasi dakwah
yang dilakukan oleh Da’I (guru) dalam membentuk karakter Mad’u
(Murid) di TKA/TPA BABUL JANNAH Jagabaya III, Bandar
Lampung?
Adapun tujuan penelitian ini dilakukan antara lain, (1) Untuk
mengetahui Bagaimana komunikasi dakwah Da’I (guru) dalam
membentuk karakter Mad’u (Murid) di TKA/TPA BABUL JANNAH
Jagabaya III, Bandar Lampung. (2) Untuk mengetahui proses
komunikasi dakwah Da’I (guru) dalam membentuk karakter Mad’u
(Murid) di TKA/TPA BABUL JANNAH Jagabaya III, Bandar
Lampung. (3) Untuk mengetahui keefektifan komunikasi dakwah
yang dilakukan oleh Da’I (guru) dalam membentuk karakter Mad’u
(Murid) di TKA/TPA BABUL JANNAH Jagabaya III, Bandar Lampung. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian lapangan (field
research) bersifat kualitatif deskriptif yaitu suatu penelitian yang
dilakukan secara sistematis dengan mengangkat yang ada dilapangan.
Metode pengumpulan data yang penulis gunakan adalah metode
interview, metode observasi, dan metode dokumentasi untuk analisis
data penulis menggunakan analisis kualitatif.
Dari hasil penelitian yang dilakukan komunikasi dakwah yang
digunakan oleh Da’I (Guru) dalam membina karakter anak di
TKA/TPA Babul Jannah adalah komunikasi satu arah, Komunikasi
dua arah, dan komunikasi banyak arah/kelompok kecil. Indikasi ini
dilihat dari guru menyampaikan kepada murid dan didengarkan
dengan seksama pesan yang disampaikan oleh guru. Dalam hal
tersebut timbulah feedback atau umpan balik dari murid. Dalam
pelaksanaan penyampaiannya terdapat pola komunikasi yang efektif,
ini dilihat dari seorang guru yang sudah menyiapkan rencana kegiatan
pembelajaran sesuai dengan tujuan yang ingin dicapai oleh seorang
guru (Da’i) untuk para muridnya (Mad’u).
Dari hasil penelitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa Komunikasi
dakwah yang digunakan oleh Da’I (Guru) dalam membina karakter
Mad’u (Murid), sudah tercipta dengan baik dan efektif karena dapat
dilihat dari tingkat kedisiplinan dan tanggung jawab mereka yang
sudah menerapkan karakter yang baik di lingkungan sekitar. Dan juga
didukung dengan kegiatan-kegiatan yang mendukung dalam membina
karakter.
Kata Kunci : Komunikasi Dakwah Da’I Dalam Pembentukan Karakter
Mad’u. ABSTRACT
Communication is the most important part of everyday life.
Communication has several forms, including intrapersonal
communication, interpersonal communication, group communication
and mass communication. It is necessary to realize that the role of
communication is very important in social life, even in teaching and
learning activities.
The direct and indirect communication patterns used by Da'I
(Religious Teachers) in character building towards Mad'u (Students)
are very important communications in conveying their messages to
these students. There are many phenomena that occur in the Al�Qur'an Kindergarten regarding children thinking and behaving
differently from what is taught by their teachers. That the goal of
teachers in teaching and learning activities is to be able to educate
and improve the quality of their students. So this is a problem in the
communication process conveyed by teachers to their students. As a
Da'I who conveys Islamic teachings, the problem formulation used is
(1) How does Da'I (teacher) preach communication in forming the
character of Mad'u (students) at TKA/TPA BABUL JANNAH
Jagabaya III, Bandar Lampung? (2) The communication process of
Da'I (teacher) preaching in forming the character of Mad'u (student)
at TKA/TPA BABUL JANNAH Jagabaya III, Bandar Lampung? (3)
The effectiveness of da'wah communication carried out by Da'I
(teachers) in forming the character of Mad'u (students) at TKA/TPA
BABUL JANNAH Jagabaya III, Bandar Lampung?
The objectives of this research include, (1) To find out how
Da'I (teacher) preaching communication in forming the character of
Mad'u (students) at TKA/TPA BABUL JANNAH Jagabaya III, Bandar
Lampung. (2) To find out the communication process of Da'I (teacher)
preaching in forming the character of Mad'u (student) at TKA/TPA
BABUL JANNAH Jagabaya III, Bandar Lampung. (3) To determine
the effectiveness of da'wah communication carried out by Da'I
(teachers) in forming the character of Mad'u (students) at TKA/TPA
BABUL JANNAH Jagabaya III, Bandar Lampung. This research is
field research(field research) it is descriptive qualitative, namely
research carried out systematically by taking what is in the field. The data collection methods that the author uses are interview methods,
observation methods, and documentation methods for data analysis.
The author uses qualitative analysis.
From the results of research conducted, the da'wah
communication used by Da'I (Teachers) in developing children's
character at TKA/TPA Babul Jannah is two-way communication. This
indication is seen from the teacher conveying it to the students and
listening carefully to the message conveyed by the teacher. In this
case, feedback arises from students. In the implementation of the
delivery there is an effective communication pattern, this can be seen
from a teacher who has prepared a learning activity plan in
accordance with the goals that a teacher (Da'i) wants to achieve for
his students (Mad'u).
From the research results it can be concluded that the da'wah
communication used by Da'I (Teachers) in developing the character of
Mad'u (Students), has been created well and effectively because it can
be seen from the level of discipline and responsibility of those who
have implemented good character in surrounding environment. And it
is also supported by activities that support character development.

Functional alignment in robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty: a systematic review.
No full textThe present study systematically reviewed current evidence on functional alignment (FA) in robotic total knee arthroplasty (TKA), discussing advantages and limitations, possible pitfalls, and prospects. This study was conducted according to the 2020 PRISMA statement. In August 2023, the following databases were accessed: PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and Embase with no additional filters or time constraints. All the clinical studies investigating functional alignment in robotic TKA were accessed. Only studies published in peer-reviewed journals were considered. The risk of bias was evaluated following the guidelines in the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions. Non-randomized controlled trials (non-RCTs) were evaluated using the Risk of Bias in Nonrandomised Studies of Interventions (NRSI) (ROBINS-I) tool. Data from 1198 patients (seven studies) were retrieved. The mean length of the follow-up was 17.1 ± 6.4 months. The mean age was 67.2 ± 5.4 years, and the mean BMI was 30.9 ± 2.7 kg/m . FA might improve resection accuracy, implant alignment, and gap balancing in TKA, and additional high-quality clinical trials are necessary to properly establish the superiority of FA to other alignment techniques in TKA. Long-term clinical trials are needed to investigate the impact of FA on implant survivorship. Level IV, systematic review and meta-analysis. [Abstract copyright: © 2024.
