STUDI RETROSPEKTIF KETAHANAN HIDUP ORANG DENGAN INFEKSI HIV/AIDS (ODHA) DI RSUD DR. ACHMAD MOCHTAR BUKITTINGGI
No full textHIV/AIDS disease is a health problem in indonesia. The problem cause of the number of morbility and mortality that still hight. It is cause of long term infection, adherance consuming the drungs and opportunistic that can deastroy the imun system of People Living With HIV/AIDS (PLHIV). The purpose of this research is to identify the factors related to the people living with PLHIV in Achmad Muchtar Hospital Bukittinggi2016.This research was conducted by a retrospective cohort design approach, doing research of the death of people who living with HIV by observing the patient’s medical record from 2014-2015. The research of study were 215 patient’s who is criteria inclusion. Analysis data using test chi-square. who became the independent variable is long infection, adherance comsuming the Anti Retroviral (ARV) , and opportunistic infection and dependent variable that survive the HIV people life.The research showed that among 215 patients with the number of deaths 39 people ( 18,% ), stages 3 and 4 (>5 th) is 89 people ( 41.4% ), not adherence is 77 people ( 35.8% ), and who suffered an opportunistic infection were 61 people (28.4% ). The statistical test relationships survival of people living with HIV with long-term infection obtained p value = 0,000 and RR = 0,019 ( confidence interfal 95 % with alpha = 0.05 ), adherance comsuming the ARV obtained p value = 0,000 and RR = 0,494 ( confidence interfal 95 % with alpha = 0.05 ), infection opportunistic obtained p value = 0,000 and RR = 0,361 ( confidence interfal 95 % with αlpha = 0.05 ).From these findings, it can be concluded that the long-term infection, adherence ARV and opportunistic infections associated with survival of people living with HIV. Of the three variables obtained interrelated and value the highest association is long-term infection
THE INFLUENCE OF FAMILY-BASED SURVEILLANCE METHODS ON THE DISCOVERY OF SUSPECTED PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS IN PADANG PARIAMAN DISTRICTS IN 2017
Full text linkThe discovery of suspect is one effort to cope with pulmonary tuberculosis. Active findings that have been done such as home visits, empowerment of cadres, and counseling has not been maximized. The problem in this study is whether the influence of family-based surveillance method to the discovery of suspect tuberculosis lung in padang pariaman district in 2017. This study aims to see the picture and the influence of independent variables on the dependent variable in Padang Pariaman district in 2017.This type of research is quantitative with pre experimental design research design conducted in December 2017 until the month of Januari 2018. The sample in this study is the head of the family in the village Pungguang Kasiak which amounted to 50 families head . The results of this study indicate that family-based surveillance methods have an effect on the discovery of suspected pulmonary tuberculosis because there is a difference between the number of suspects before and after family-based surveillance methods (mean = - 0,380). Therefore, the family is expected to play a more active role, and can be more concerned about the health of themselves and family members so that if you experience symptoms of pulmonary tuberculosis immediately checked into health service
Medical Students' Role in Anticipating the Psychosocial Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Narrative Review
Full text linkThe COVID-19 pandemic has affected learning activities in medical educational institutions all over the world. The world has managed to rise to the challenge of the global health crisis including mental health and well-being. Rethink the role that health students play during their education, not only in maintaining the continuity of their learning process but, also as agents of change who are part of health actions and responses. This literature review focuses on the role of medical students in anticipating the psychosocial impacts from the Covid-19. The main and supporting articles are search results from indexed international journal databases from Pubmed, ScienceDirect, or Google Scholar databases. Articles were searched using specific keywords with full text written in English, open access, EBM articles with a minimum level 3, and published in the last 5 years. Medical students can take part in ensuring the correctness of circulated information and prevent the spread of hoaxes, and be advised to educate the public to carry out activities for maintaining mental health. Students with stakeholders can create a database to support the health team and share it with other students at medical institutions, design and build information storage databases, create support teams for students for academic counseling, and mutual emotional support through a group under supervision by practitioners to equalize perceptions about everything that happens using interprofessional collaboration principal. A holistic approach based on community intervention is very possible for medical students to minimize the psychosocial impact after the Covid-19 pandemic era
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
DIVERSITY IN MAIN DISHES PREVENTS CHILDREN FROM COMPOSITE INDEX OF ANTHROPOMETRIC FAILURE (CIAF)
Full text linkBackground: Malnutrition that occurs in early period of life caused the vulnerable to diseases, cognitive disorder and failed to thrive. Failed to thrive decide from the result of anthropometric measurement. Failed to thrive happened when the result of measuring indicate a problem. If the problem showed in two or more index, it is called CIAF. In Indonesia one of two children had CIAF (51,4 %). Cities in Indonesia use only a single index of anthropometry so the data of CIAF is not available. Objective: the objective of the study was to find the association of food diversity with the incidence of CIAF. Method: cross – sectional design applied in this study with the number of sample were 267 children aged 2 – 5 years. Result: there were 23,6% children suffered from CIAF and generally consume the same type of food everyday. There was a significant association between diversity in main food consumption with the incidence of CIAF (p = 0,034). It means children who consume diversity main food everyday protected from CIAF compared to the children who eat the same main food each day (OR = 2). Conclusion: main food diversity prevents the children from CIAF. The mother expected to provide diversity source for the main dishes everyday (other than rice) such as bread or potato. For the health institutions, suggested to increase the education about the variaty of food processing towards so that the children could escape from the boredom
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
