The Efficacy of Jing Wan Hong Ointment for Nerve Injury Diabetic Foot Ulcer and Its Mechanisms
Full text linkJing Wan Hong ointment contains 30 kinds of Chinese herbs, with functions of activating blood circulation to disperse blood stasis, clearing heat, eliminating dampness, and reducing swelling by detoxification. Therefore, Jing Wan Hong ointment may facilitate the healing of ulcers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and mechanisms of Jing Wan Hong ointment for healing diabetic foot ulceration in Wistar rats induced by streptozotocin and sciatic nerve damage. The results showed that Jing Wan Hong ointment had a marked effect on foot ulcers in diabetic rats induced by initial nerve injury. These effects were manifested by reducing the foot ulcer size and Wagner grade after seven days of treatment. The diabetic rats with foot ulcers were almost healed after 21 days of treatment. Moreover, the mechanisms of this effect seem to be dependent on increased expression of PDGF mRNA, but there was no influence on the expression of TGF-β, VEGF, and FLT-1 mRNA

Kapal MV. Wan Hong merupakan kapal milik PT. Hongshi Shipping yang
melakukan kegiatan Bongkar Muat di Pelabuhan Indonesia. Pada saat melakukan
kegiatan di Indonesia, kapal tersebut menunjuk PT. Panca Global Energi untuk
menjadi perwakilan nya pada saat kapal tersebut melakukan pemuatan mill scale di
pelabuhan Pelindo Ciwandan. Pada proses kegiatan pemuatan mill scale terjadi
permasalahan yang membuat proses pemuatan tersebut berjalan lebih lama. .Pada
saat peneliti melaksanakan penelitian di perusahaan PT. Panca Global Energi yang
mana perusahaan tersebut bergerak di bidang agency service yang memberikan
salah satu jasanya yaitu untuk menjadi agen kapal yang akan melaksanakn kegiatan
bongkar maupun muat di suatu wilayah kerja pelabuhan setempat. Penelitian ini
dibuat berdasarkan pengalaman peneliti pada saat peneliti menjadi agen dari kapal
MV. Wan Hong dimana kapal tersebut melakukan pemuatan mill scale di
Pelabuhan Pelindo Ciwandan. Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu untuk mengetahui faktor
yang menyebabkan proses pemuatan berjalan lebih lama daripada yang seharusnya
terjadi, serta dampak yang ditimbulkan dari terhambatnya proses pemuatan
tersebut.
Metode yang digunakan dalam skripsi ini adalah metode kualitatif. Teknik
pengumpulan dilakukan dengan observasi, wawancara dan dokumentasi. Teknik
analisis data yang menggunakan metode analisis data SHEL. Hasil dari penelitian
tersebut yaitu ditemukan faktor-faktor yang menjadi penyebab keterlambatan
pemuatan mill scale, dari faktor yang ditemukan, menghasilkan 3 dampak yang
ditimbulkan dan dari dampak tersebut sehingga dapat ditemukan 3 upaya yang
dapat dilakukan untuk mengatasi permasalahan tersebut.
Hasil penelitian yang dilakukan peneliti selama kurang lebih 1 tahun, dari
bulan Agustus 2020 sampai bulan Agustus 2021. Menunjukan bahwa terdapat
faktor internal dan juga faktor eksternal yang menyebabkan proses pemuatan mill
scale terhambat. Yang termasuk ke dalam faktor internal yaitu rusaknya crane pada
saat proses pemuatan dan untuk faktor eksternal yaitu gangguan cuaca yang terjadi
dari sebelum kapal sandar. Hal tersebut menimbulkan dampak terhadap biaya
operasional dan juga jadwal kegiatan yang tidak dapat berjalan sesuai dengan
perencanaan. Selanjutnya sebagai upaya kedepannya dapat dilakukan pemeliharan
dan perawatan alat bongkar muat secara berkala sehingga dapat menjaga ketahanan
dari alat tersebut, serta komunikasi yang dapat meningkatkan kerjasama pada saat
kegiatan bongkar muat berlangsung
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
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

Timing and mechanisms of sediment accumulation and pedogenesis: Insights from the Po Plain (northern Italy)
Full text linkThe relationships between pedogenetic processes and fluvial-coastal dynamics in the Po Plain have been reconstructed through sedimentological analysis and correlation of ca. 170 core data chronologically constrained by 376 radiocarbon dates. Vertically stacked, weakly developed paleosols within Upper Pleistocene and Holocene mud-prone strata testify to intermittent pedogenesis, periodically interrupted by overbank sedimentation. Individual paleosols are laterally traceable for tens of km and exhibit A-Bk-Bw, A-Bk or A-Bw profiles. Strati graphically ordered 14C calibrated ages from A organo-mineral horizons testify to slow aggradation during 4-6 thousand years-long exposure periods. Burial ages, with an error of few centuries, are provided by plant debris at the top of A horizons.Millennial-scale climate oscillations and glacio-eustasy are the main drivers of the pedo-sedimentary evolution of the area during the last 50 kyr. Upper Pleistocene paleosols (P1-P3) developed in well-drained floodplain environments, during relatively warm periods.Paleosol burial occurred during colder phases. High-sediment supply during the Last Glacial Maximum hindered pedogenesis and led to the accumulation of 3-10 m-thick overbank strata. Widespread soil development (paleosol PH) occurred at the end of Last Glacial Maximum, following the retreat of Alpine glaciers and the afforestation of Apennine drainage basins. At distal locations, paleosol PH was progressively buried under estuarine sediments during the Holocene phases of post-glacial sea level rise. Beyond the area of marine influence, burial ages of paleosol PH change from a place to another without specific spatial trends and reflect upstream fluvial sedimentation dominated by avulsions and deposition of spatially restricted alluvial units. Holocene (H1-H2) paleosols show a poor correlation potential and laterally variable degree of maturity that reflect avulsive sedimentation patterns and crevassing. This paper provides insights on the timing and mechanisms of formation and burial of weakly-developed paleosols. The outcomes of this research are applicable to similar Quaternary alluvial systems, and may help interpreting ancient paleosolbearing successions
