The Healthy Indonesia Program with a Family Approach (PISPK) is conducted by
puskesmas by integrating existing resources, with the family’s target. All families
will get access to comprehensive health services. The implementation of PISPK
since 2016 has not been optimal because it has many obstacles. The analysis aims
to identify the obstacles, and to find solutions to implemented PISPK optimally.
Implementation research was carried out using Participatory Action Research
(PAR). The team (researcher and subject) implemented PISPK together based on
stages that integrated into puskesmas management, at 4 puskesmas in South

The Utilization Of Postnatal Care In South Sulawesi (Data Analysis Of The Indonesia Demographic And Health Survey 2017), Apik Indarty Moedjiono, Muhammad Rachmat, Akmal

Media Kesehatan Masyarakat Indonesia

The main problem that is still faced with maternal health in Indonesia is
the high Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR). It is estimated that 60% of
maternal deaths in Indonesia occur after postpartum, and nearly 50% of
deaths during childbirth occur within the first 24 hours after delivery.
Some causes of maternal death, such as postpartum complications and
postpartum bleeding, can be prevented through the puerperal care
program. The study aims to determine the factors associated with a
postpartum examination in South Sulawesi Province. This study uses
cross-sectional study design in 393 couple’s age 15-49 years by using

Towards An Organizationally Sensible Hr Risk Assessment In Academic Libraries: A Case Of A University Library, Chaminda Chiran Jayasundara Dr.

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

Employees can be a resource of sustained success and a competitive advantage in any orgnisation, reliant on skilled workforce. However, dearth of trained labour force to drive the manpower requirement of local industries has become a long lasting burden in some small counties. These countries do not have adequate professional advancement opportunities for librarians and support staff to become professionals or paraprofessionals due to lack of openings for specialist education in the field of librarianship. Thus, human resource risks in libraries of such countries are comparatively higher. It is therefore needed to identify and assess the severity and impact of …

2020-Current year OA Pubs

BACKGROUND: Prophylactic cotrimoxazole treatment is recommended in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-exposed, uninfected (HEU) infants, but the effects of this treatment on developing HEU infant gut microbiotas and resistomes are largely undefined.

METHODS: We analyzed whole-metagenome sequencing data from 163 longitudinally collected stool samples from 63 HEU infants randomized to receive (n = 34; CTX-T) or to not receive (n = 29; CTX-N) prophylactic cotrimoxazole treatment. We generated taxonomic, functional pathway, and resistance gene profiles for each sample and compared microbiome signatures between the CTX-T and CTX-N infants.

RESULTS: Metagenomic analysis did not reveal significant differences in taxonomic or functional pathway …

Visual Arts Enhance Instruction In Observation And Analysis Of Microscopic Forms In Developmental And Cell Biology, Max Ezin, Christina Noravian, Amira Mahomed, Adam Lyle, Aveleen Gill, Tamira Elul

The Transdisciplinary STEAM+ Journal

Two important skills for scientists in developmental and cell biology, as well as in fields such as neurobiology, histology and pathology, are: 1) observation of features and details in microscopic images of cells, and 2) quantification of cellular features observed in microscopic images. However, current training in developmental and cell biology does not emphasize observation and quantitative analysis of microscopic images, and it is unclear how best to teach students these skills. Here, we describe our experiences applying visual artistic approaches to instruct undergraduate and graduate students in how to observe and analyze cellular forms in microscopic images. At Loyola …

Realism in literature was part of a wider movement in the arts to focus on ordinary people and events. In the spirit of general "realism," Realist authors opted for depictions of everyday and banal activities and experiences. instead of a romanticized or similarly stylized presentation.

In America realism was an early 20th century idea in art, music and literature that showed through these different types of work. Characteristic …

Quantum Simulation Of The Schrodinger Equation Using Ibm's Quantum Computers, Mohamed Abouelela

Capstone and Graduation Projects

This thesis explores the capabilities of a quantum computer to simulate quantum systems. We give an introduction to the basics of quantum computing with the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm as a demonstration. Four quantum systems are then simulated using IBM's QASM simulator using 6 qubits: the free particle, eigenstate of an infinite-well, particle in a step potential, and quantum tunneling. Because of the high number of gates, a 6-qubit simulation will not be feasible on current quantum computers. The number of qubits was, thus, reduced to 4 qubits, and was simulated on IBM's 5 qubit quantum computers (ibmq 5 vigo). We conclude …

Identifying Personalized Metabolic Signatures In Breast Cancer., Priyanka Baloni, Wikum Dinalankara, John C Earls, Theo A Knijnenburg, Donald Geman, Luigi Marchionni, Nathan D Price

Articles, Abstracts, and Reports

Cancer cells are adept at reprogramming energy metabolism, and the precise manifestation of this metabolic reprogramming exhibits heterogeneity across individuals (and from cell to cell). In this study, we analyzed the metabolic differences between interpersonal heterogeneous cancer phenotypes. We used divergence analysis on gene expression data of 1156 breast normal and tumor samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and integrated this information with a genome-scale reconstruction of human metabolism to generate personalized, context-specific metabolic networks. Using this approach, we classified the samples into four distinct groups based on their metabolic profiles. Enrichment analysis of the subsystems indicated that amino …
