Physical Exercises By Giving Glutathione for Changes of Leukocytes, Neutrophils, and Lymphocytes Amounts
Get PDFPhysical exercise changes the antibody endurance of each person. This study aims to determine in depth changes in the number of leukocytes, neutrophils, and lymphocytes using physical exercise after being given glutathione. The method used experimentally using a posttest randomized control group design. The study was conducted in three groups where each group consisting of men and women who are in the age range of 20-30 years. Each group consisted of 10 people (n), K1 was given a placebo, K2 was given glutathione 54 mg / kg BW, K3 given 108 mg / kg BW. All treatments are given intraperitoneally twice a day until the third day. Maximum physical exercise is swimming. On the third day after 3 hours of treatment (placebo or glutathione), then participants take a leukocyte profile measurement. The findings show that the number of leukocytes: K2> K1; P = 0.005; K2 - K3; P = 0.168; - K3; P 0.105, neutrophils: Kl, K2 and K3 are not different, even though K2 is highest, lymphocyte: K2> K1; P = 0.003, K1 - K3 and K2 - K3 is not different even though K2 is highest. The conclusion of this study is the number of leukocytes and lymphocytes treated with glutathione 54 mg / kg BW (K2) is significantly higher than K1 after strenuous physical exercise. Thus, the content of glutathione must be balanced with the body’s needs so that the body is healthy and is able to do the heavy activities
PENGARUH SENAM HIPERTENSI TERHADAP PENURUNAN TEKANAN DARAH PADA LANSIA: The Effect of Hypertension Exercise on Reducing Blood Pressure in The Elderly
Get PDFPendahuluan : Menurut WHO, hipertensi membunuh 9,4 juta orang di dunia setiap tahunnya. National Heart and Lung Institute memperkirakan bahwa 23 juta orang Amerika memiliki tekanan darah tinggi. Di Indonesia, berdasarkan data Riskesdas (2018), prevalensi hipertensi di Indonesia sebesar 25,8%, prevalensi tertinggi terjadi di Kalimantan Selatan (44,1%) dan terendah di Papua (22,2%). Ada beberapa cara pencegahan yang bisa dilakukan agar terhindar dari hipertensi, yaitu aktif berolahraga, mengatur pola makan, menghindari stres dan mengobati penyakit lainnya. Tujuan : Mengetahui pengaruh senam hipertensi terhadap penurunan tekanan darah pada lansia. Metode : Quasi eksperimen design dengan two group pre test-post test control group design. Sampel dalam penelitian ini adalah seluruh lansia yang menderita hipertensi di Puskesmas Samabusa Nabire Papua pada bulan Oktober 2022 sebanyak 40 orang, teknik pengambilan sampel adalah total sampling. Hasil : Rata-rata tekanan darah pada kelompok intervensi sistolik pre-test adalah 163,35 dan post-test adalah 144,30. Sedangkan tekanan darah diastolik pre test adalah 92,26 dan post test 87,61. Rata-rata tekanan darah pada kelompok kontrol adalah 178,22 pre-systolic test dan 177,00 post-test. Sedangkan tekanan darah diastolik pre test 81,87 dan post test 83,70. Ada pengaruh senam hipertensi terhadap penurunan tekanan darah pada lansia (p.value<0,005). Kesimpulan dan Saran: Ada pengaruh senam hipertensi terhadap penurunan tekanan darah pada lansia. Diharapkan petugas kesehatan perlu melakukan sosialisasi dan pelatihan keterampilan senam lansia untuk mengontrol tekanan darah
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
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
