The Roles Of Videofluoroscopic Swallowing Study (Vfss) And Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation Of Swallowing (Fees) In The Assessment Of Dysphagia, Yi-Hsiang Chiu, Wen-Hsuan Tseng, Tyng-Guey Wang
Rehabilitation Practice and Science
Dysphagia is a prevailing complication of various central nervous diseases and oral pharyngeal cancer. Once dysphagia occurred, it may affect a patient's physical and psychological condition and thus their quality of daily activities. Therefore, early detection and the application of appropriate treatments for patients with dysphagia is essential. Videofluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS) and fiberoptic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES) are two common instrument modalities used to evaluate swallowing function. VFSS has been acknowledged as the gold standard for the diagnosis of dysphagia by most scholars. Nevertheless, there is debate that FEES is superior to VFSS as it provides additional information …

Public Health Spending, Governance Quality And Poverty Alleviation, Mohamad Komarudin
Economics and Finance in Indonesia
Poverty alleviation has become the main priority program in most developing countries. This research empirically studies the correlation between public health spending, governance quality, and poverty alleviation in developing countries. The panel data were estimated via a random-effects (RE) model and robustness check using instrumental variables (IV) (two-stage least-squares [2SLS]) and first-difference generalized method of moments (GMM) because of the endogeneity problem. The results suggest that public health spending has a significant effect on reducing the poverty rate, and that countries with better governance tend to reduce poverty than countries with poor governance. Increasing public health spending by one percentage …

Introduction. Sarcopenia is a condition characterized by a decrease in muscle mass accompanied by a decrease in strength and/or function. Sarcopenia is closely related to the aging process, but the mechanism of its occurrence is still not fully understood. Skeletal muscle is the largest organ in the human body, so the myokine produced through muscle contraction opens a new paradigm regarding the central role of muscles in regulating metabolism and other organ functions. One of the myokines that are currently found to affect physical activity is Irisin. This study aims to determine the role of low Irisin levels in serum …

Business Vulnerability And Credit Access For Agriculture-Based Micro And Small Women Entrepreneurs, Dewi Ratna Sjari M
Economics and Finance in Indonesia
Micro and Small Industries (MSIs) constitute the largest share of Indonesia's manufacturing sector and play an important role in providing employment opportunities and value-added creation. However, their business sustainability and scaling up are often hindered by various factors, one of which is access to credit. The subsidized loan scheme provided by the government, namely People's Business Credit (KUR), appears to be insufficiently attractive to entrepreneurs, especially to Micro and Small Women Entrepreneurs (MSWEs). Employing a logit regression method and utilizing the BPS-Statistics Indonesia's 2015 MSI survey data, this study aims to investigate factors affecting MSWEs decision to apply for bank …

Molecular Studies On The Interactions Between Biomphalaria Snails And Schistosoma Mansoni, Lijun Lu
Biology ETDs
Biomphalaria snails serve as vectors for Schistosoma mansoni, a trematode causing human schistosomiasis. Control of Schistosoma mansoni involves chemotherapy of affected people, but new control methods built on improved understanding of schistosome-snail interactions are needed. My dissertation applies molecular and bioinformatics approaches to understand such interactions. Chapter 1 shows that significant differences exist among Biomphalaria species in Africa with respect to their ability to support schistosome development. Chapters 2 and 3 reveal the transcriptional responses of Biomphalaria glabrata susceptible (SUS) or resistant (RES) to Schistosoma mansoni. Chapter 2 identifies a new family of snail immune factors, the AIG …

The world seems to be recovering at this time, especially because of the 2019 global coronavirus disease pandemic (COVID-19) caused by the Coronavirus 2 virus (SARS-CoV-2). This virus is similar to other β-coronaviruses through several steps to enter and bind angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) as the main receptor. This binding, particularly in the respiratory epithelium and alveoli of the lungs, affects harmony in human host cells. No specific vaccines and antivirals are available to date as drug investigations are still ongoing. However, many Indonesians consume herbal medicine, especially 'empon-empon' containing the Zingiberaceae family, to protect their health from COVID-19. So …

Feedback-Guided Analysis As An Approach To Managing Sustainability In Asean Countries, Maria Assunta C. Cuyegkeng, Charlotte Kendra Gotangco Gonzales
Journal of Management for Global Sustainability
Innovation has been at the center of most science policies of the ASEAN countries, driven as they are by a greater concern for the competitive advantages that can come from science and technology. Related to these policies, although often treated separately, are policies on the environment and environmental education. What is missing, however, is a more comprehensive view of how both science and environmental policies influence and are influenced by the culture and well-being of the people in a particular country. This study attempts to fill in the blanks through feedback-guided analysis, particularly by using a cultural adaptation template introduced …

Background: Bronchial asthma is the most prevalent chronic lung diseases. Morbidity and mortality associated with asthma has also continued to increase despite advances in treatment and management. Asthma vary from region to region due to the variability of extrinsic allergens that play a major role in sensitizing susceptible individuals. As an allergenic disease, environmental factors are of more importance than genetic factors in the etiology of bronchial asthma. Patient awareness and treatment regimen have a strong influence on outcome and stabilization of asthma. Objective: This survey was to evaluate the knowledge about triggering factors and treatment regimen among asthma patients. …

The Leucaena leucocephala (Lam.) de Wit tree contains pharmacologically active compounds and can easily be found in abundant quantities. The utilization of this tree as a source of nutraceuticals would increase its value. The extraction yields show the number of compounds that have been extracted by solvent. However, Leucaena leucocephala (Lam.) de Wit seeds also contain mimosine, which can cause hair loss. The present study investigated the process of removing mimosine from the seeds. Three treatments were applied to these seeds: treatment without soaking, soaking with distilled water for 24 hours, and splitting the seeds in half and then soaking …

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 …

In the American West, high-profile big game species including mule deer, antelope, elk, moose, bison and bighorn sheep use large landscapes to migrate between winter and summer habitats to obtain the resources they need to survive. The big game species are a vital part of the West’s ecology, economy, and culture and are valued by local, national, and international stakeholders. Thanks to large parcels of private and public land and a low human population, many parts of the American West still provide some of the best big game habitats in the world. But these vast, intact landscapes are under threat …
