Meningkatkan Minat Belajar Matematika Pada Materi FPB dan KPK Menggunakan Dakota (Dakon Matematika)

This research was motivated by the still low learning outcomes in mathematics subjects on FPB (Greatest Common Factor) and KPK (Least Common Multiple), because students still find it difficult to differentiate the factors of these numbers. Based on these problems, teachers are expected to be able to provide learning media that can make it easier for students to understand the subject matter. The aim of this research is to improve student learning outcomes by using Dakota learning media (Dakon Mathematics). With the Dakota (Dakon Mathematics) learning media, it can improve mathematics learning outcomes in the cognitive aspect and involve students to actively participate in lessons, thus fostering students' interest in learning in mathematics subjects such as FPB (Greatest Common Factor) and KPK (Least Common Multiple) . So, it can be concluded that the use of Dakota learning media (Dakon Mathematics) can increase students' interest in learning in elementary schools.

Discrepancies Between Objective and Subjective Outcomes of and Quality of Life During Molding Helmet Therapy for Cranial Deformities.

Positional skull deformities have been on the rise for decades and can be treated with molding helmets in early childhood. Parents often fear later cosmetic stigmatization, but also a reduced quality of life (QoL) during treatment. The aim of this study was to examine therapy results in our patient collection from a new perspective. Cranial vault asymmetry (CVA), cranial vault asymmetry index (CVAI), and cranial index (CI) were compared before and after molding helmet therapy. Correction was defined by a decrease in CVA <3.5mm and CI <90%. Subjective therapy outcome, side effects and QoL from the parents' perspective were determined using a questionnaire. There were 25 patients included. Differences between pretherapeutic and posttherapeutic CVA, CVAI, and CI were significant ( P <0.01). An objective correction according to the defined values was observed in only 12% of cases. However, 76% of parents stated that their child's skull shape was normal after therapy. There were 60 side effects reported in 23 cases. The QoL of 21 children was assessed as unimpaired during helmet therapy. Even though complete normalization was rarely observed, the parameters were significantly different after therapy, and subjective reduction in skull deformity was common.

Objective and subjective cognitive outcomes one year after COVID-19.

This study aimed to evaluate subjective cognitive, physical, and mental health symptoms as well as objective cognitive deficits in COVID-19 patients 1 year after infection. This was a cross-sectional study. Seventy-four patients, who contracted a SARS-CoV-2 infection in 2020, underwent an in-person neuropsychological assessment in 2021. This included standardized tests of memory, attention, and executive functions. In addition, participants also responded to scales on subjective attention deficits, mental health symptoms, and fatigue. Patients' scores were compared to published norms. Patients (N = 74) had a median age of 56 years (42% female). According to the initial disease severity, they were classified as mild (outpatients, 32%), moderate (hospitalized, non-ICU-admitted, 45%), or severe (ICU-admitted, 23%). Hospitalized patients were more often affected than outpatients. In general, deficits were most common in attention (23%), followed by memory (15%) and executive functions (3%). Patients reported increased levels of fatigue (51%), anxiety (30%), distractibility in everyday situations (20%), and depression (15%). An additional analysis suggested an association between lower scores in an attention task and hyperferritinemia. As indicated by a hierarchical regression analysis, subjective distractibility was significantly predicted by current anxiety and fatigue symptoms but not by objective attention performance (final model, adj-R2 = 0.588, P < 0.001). One year after infection, COVID-19 patients can have frequent attention deficits and can complain about symptoms such as fatigue, anxiety, and distractibility. Anxiety and fatigue, more than objective cognitive deficits, have an impact on the patients' experienced impairments in everyday life.

Uterine Preservation versus Hysterectomy During Sacrospinous Colpopexy for Uterovaginal Prolapse

Objective: To compare the effectiveness and safety of uterine preservation versus hysterectomy during SSC for uterovaginal prolapse. Methodology: Ninety female patients diagnosed with uterovaginal prolapse were enrolled in a prospective study conducted from March 2023 to February 2024 at Department of Gynecology, Ayub Teaching Hospital Abbottabad. Patients were randomly assigned to either uterine preservation or hysterectomy groups during SSC. Pre-operative assessments included pelvic examinations, imaging studies, and urodynamic evaluations. Surgical outcomes such as operative time, blood loss, complications, and anatomical success rates were recorded. Post-operatively, patients were followed up at regular intervals to assess subjective outcomes including symptoms relief, quality of life improvements, and sexual function. Results: Both uterine preservation and hysterectomy groups showed comparable anatomical success rates and symptom relief following SSC. Operative time was longer in the uterine preservation group (p = 0.028), while hospital stay was shorter in the hysterectomy group (p = 0.041). No significant differences were observed in intraoperative blood loss (p = 0.102), infection rates (p = 0.076), or prolapse recurrence (p = 0.194). However, reoperation rates were higher in the uterine preservation group (p = 0.012), whereas patient satisfaction was notably higher among those who opted for uterine preservation (p = 0.001). Conclusion: Uterine preservation during sacrospinous colpopexy appears to be a viable option for treating uterovaginal prolapse, offering comparable outcomes to hysterectomy in terms of anatomical support, symptom relief, and patient satisfaction. This study suggests that the decision between uterine preservation and hysterectomy during SSC should be individualized based on patient preferences, anatomical considerations, and the presence of co-existing conditions.

A multi-center analysis of visual outcomes following open globe injury

The purpose of this study was to examine how demographics, etiology, and clinical examination findings are related to visual outcomes in subjects with open globe injury (OGI) across a large and generalizable sample. A retrospective cohort analysis was performed using data collected from the electronic medical records of four tertiary university centers for subjects with OGI presenting from 2018 to 2021. Demographic information, injury mechanisms, clinical exam findings, visual acuity (VA) at presentation and most recent follow-up were recorded. In subjects with bilateral OGIs, only right eyes were included. A modified ocular trauma score (OTS) using presenting VA, the presence of perforating injury, OGI, and afferent pupillary defect was calculated. The risk of subjects’ demographic characteristics, ocular trauma etiology, clinical findings and modified OTS on the presence of monocular blindness at follow-up were assessed using univariable and multivariable regression models. 1426 eyes were identified. The mean age was 48.3 years (SD: ± 22.4 years) and the majority of subjects were men (N = 1069, 75.0%). Univariable analysis demonstrated that subjects of Black race were 66% (OR: 1.66 [1.25–2.20]; P < 0.001) more likely to have monocular blindness relative to White race at follow-up. OTS Class 1 was the strongest predictor of blindness (OR: 38.35 [21.33–68.93]; P < 0.001). Based on multivariable analysis, lower OTS category (OTS Class 1 OR: 23.88 [16.44–45.85]; P < 0.001) moderately predicted visual outcomes (R2 = 0.275, P < 0.001). OGI has many risks of poor visual outcome across patient groups that vary by demographic category, mechanism of injury, and clinical presentation. Our findings validate that a modified OTS remains a strong predictor of visual prognosis following OGI in a large and generalizable sample.

IMPLEMENTASI PENILAIAN RANAH AFEKTIF PADA PEMBELAJARAN BAHASA INDONESIA MI/SD

Assessment standards according to Permendikbud No.66/2013 explain that in the 2013 curriculum there are assessment techniques and tools including assessment of attitudes, knowledge and skills aspects. Development of student competence in learning and assessment includes affective, cognitive and psychomotor aspects. In the assessment, the teachers give an attitude value that is appropriate for students to carry out and just to understand students. The results of this study state that aspects of affective assessment in the 2013 curriculum include attitude evaluation consisting of 1) observational assessment by observing students inside and outside the classroom during the Indonesian language learning process; 2) self-assessment is carried out during questions and answers with students; 3) peer-to-peer assessment by conducting positive assessments between students; 4) journal assessment is done by looking at attitudes and student learning outcomes in Indonesian subjects.

PENERAPAN MODEL CONTEXTUAL TEACHING LEARNING UNTUK MENINGKATAKAN MOTIVASI DAN HASIL BELAJAR IPA DIKELAS V/A SDN 036/VI RANTAU PANJANG III

ABSTRACT The problem in this research is that student motivation and learning outcomes in Natural Sciences subjects for class VA SDN 36/VI Rantau Panjang III are still relatively low. The aim of this research is to describe the application of the contextual learning model in the VA class on motivation and learning outcomes. The method used in this research is classroom action research (PTK). This research consists of 2 cycles, each cycle is carried out through 4 stages, namely planning, action, observation and reflection and consists of 2 meetings. Student learning motivation can be explained as follows: (1) the application of the contextual learning model can increase student learning motivation and the results of the learning motivation questionnaire show that in cycle I there was 55.45% while in cycle II it increased very well, namely 83.50%, this indicates s=tudent learning motivation increased according to the success indicator, namely 80%. The results of this research can be explained as follows: (1) the application of the contextual learning model in learning in cycle I is still not optimal. This can be seen from the tests in cycle I. Only 60.40% of students got a score within the maximum completeness criteria and 39.60% did not reach the maximum completeness criteria. (2) Student learning outcomes improved very well in cycle II. From 45% (initial observation), to 60.40% (cycle I) and 80.00% (cycle II). Keywords: Motivation, Science Learning Outcomes, Contextual Teaching Learning Model

Differences in Subjective Transition Outcomes Between Transgender and Gender-Diverse Individuals Who Completed Mandatory Psychiatric Assessment and Those Who Received Gender-Affirmative Medical Treatment in Croatia: A Cross-Sectional Online Survey.

The aim of this study was to evaluate different aspects of transition outcomes in groups of transgender and gender diverse (TGD) people based on their transition status. We divided the 70 TGD participants (19 individuals assigned male at birth and 51 assigned female at birth) into two groups: those who had completed their psychiatric and psychological evaluation (PPE), which is mandatory in Croatia, and those who had undergone gender-affirming medical treatment (GAMT) (both gender-affirming hormone treatment and gender-affirming surgery). The online survey included sociodemographic questions and a custom-designed nine-item scale. The items were specifically designed based on the DSM-5-TR criteria for gender dysphoria to assess subjectively perceived transition outcomes. We conducted a factor analysis of the scale followed by structural equation modeling for confirmation. Chi-squared and Mann-Whitney U tests were used to compare group differences. The following three-factor structure was confirmed: better functioning, reduced body dysphoria, and satisfaction with decision. A positive influence of better functioning on satisfaction with the decision was found. In addition, our results showed that TGD individuals who had undergone GAMT scored higher on better functioning than those who had just completed PPE. Both groups consistently scored high on satisfaction with the decision, with no statistically significant differences between them. Our findings suggest that TGD individuals view gender-affirming medical care as beneficial to their overall functioning.

Long-Term Outcome of Digital Defect Reconstruction using Cross-Finger Flaps

Although multiple advances have been made in finger defect reconstruction, cross-finger flaps remain an important reconstructive tool. However, data on long-term results are scarce in the literature. This study aimed to assess the clinical and subjective long-term outcomes of patients who underwent cross-finger flap reconstruction for palmar digital and fingertip defects. Between January 2003 and July 2022, 35 patients (31 male, 4 female, mean age: 59.0 years±20.1) were screened and included in the study. The data were obtained through a clinical examination, a Quick-DASH score and a self-designed questionnaire. Clinical outcomes were assessed by evaluating the range of motion (ROM) of the reconstructed finger and the donor finger compared with the contralateral uninjured hand. In addition to ROM, a static two-point separation test was performed to assess the sensory function of the reconstructed finger. The follow-up period was between 1 year and 19 years (mean: 12.6 years±6.1). There was no significant difference in terms of ROM between the reconstructed finger and the donor finger compared with the contralateral uninjured hand. All patients reported normal discrimination between sharp and blunt objects. However, there was a significant difference in two-point discrimination between the reconstructed finger and the healthy contralateral finger (p<0.05). The average Quick-DASH score was 5.1 points. Satisfaction with the functional outcome in terms of mobility and load-bearing capacity of the cross-finger flap averaged 8.1 out of 10 points. Satisfaction with the aesthetic outcome of the reconstructed finger averaged 7.7 out of 10 points. In 4 cases, persistent pain was reported when the reconstructed finger was under stress. No cases of pain at rest were reported. In the long run, cross-finger flaps are a safe and effective reconstructive procedure for covering defects in palmar injuries of the finger and fingertip amputation. They represent a simple, reliable, long-lasting reconstructive technique. The necessary temporary iatrogenic syndactyly does not lead to long-term limitations in the range of motion.

Individual-Level Experiences of Structural Inequity and Their Association with Subjective and Objective Sleep Outcomes in the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study

PurposeResearch has documented that adolescent sleep is impacted by various stressors, including interpersonal experiences and structural disadvantage. This study extends existing knowledge by empirically examining interconnected individual experiences of structural inequity and assessing its association with subjective and objective sleep outcomes. MethodsWe utilized data from the Adolescent Brain and Cognitive Development Study to identify seven conceptual domains of structural inequity: perceived discrimination, low school inclusivity, neighborhood safety, unmet medical needs, legal problems, material hardship, and housing insecurity. We operationalized experiences of structural inequity as latent classes, a cumulative exposure, and each domain separately. Sleep disturbances were measured using the Sleep Disturbance Scale, and sleep duration was assessed using Fitbits. Mixed effects linear regression estimated the association between our measures of structural inequity, longitudinal sleep disturbances, and cross-sectional sleep duration. ResultsLatent class analysis revealed common exposure profiles (low risk, interpersonal, and systemic) of experiences of structural inequity across our sample. In longitudinal models, structural inequity was associated with higher Sleep Disturbance Scale scores, whether measured as latent classes, a cumulative exposure, or individual domains. Individuals with interpersonal exposures, those with at least one exposure, and those with legal problems, material hardship, and housing insecurity had lower mean sleep duration. DiscussionResults are consistent with literature that frames structural inequity as a lifelong determinant of sleep disturbance and duration. Adolescence represents a crucial time for interventions aimed at improving sleep and redressing inequities throughout the life course; our work can inform the development of policies and interventions toward this end.

Patient-Centered Outcomes of a Lymphedema Pump in Patients with Symptomatic Lower Extremity Edema

Phlebolymphedema is a challenging condition to manage, with limited options for effective treatment. For patients, this may be debilitating and lead to infection, loss of independence and affect quality of life. This study aims to evaluate patient-reported outcomes of an advanced pneumatic compression device (APCD) in the treatment of lower extremity phlebolymphedema. Patients with diagnosis of lower extremity phlebolymphedema at an acute care facility within the New York City Health and Hospitals Cooperation treated with the Flexitouch (FLX) (Tactile Systems Technology, Inc, Minneapolis, Minnesota) APCD from December 2021 to March 2023 were evaluated. Patient-perceived subjective outcomes were assessed via a short questionnaire, with subsequent analysis using chi-squared test. Primary end points were subjective improvements in 1) swelling, 2) pain, and 3) ease of use of device as surrogates for patient satisfaction. Secondary end point was subjective patient-reported compliance, obtained by investigating 1) if patients were trained to use device, and 2) if patients were using the device. A total of 52 participants were included in this study, consisting of 30.8% male and 69.2% female patients with a mean age of 71.7years. While selection criteria did not exclude unilateral disease or alternative etiologies, we note that the entire study population had been diagnosed with bilateral lower extremity lymphedema in the setting of chronic venous insufficiency. Other patient characteristics including race, comorbidities and smoking status were documented in Table1. Table2 demonstrates the results of chi-squared analysis. This study noted significant patient-perceived improvement in swelling and pain (91.4% with P<0.00001; 85.7% with P=0.00002 respectively) and patient-reported ease of use of the FLX device (85.7% with P=0.00002). Additional secondary findings included a majority of patients reporting being trained on how to use FLX and also maintaining compliance with the device (69.2% with P=0.005; 67.3% with P=0.012 respectively). FLX APCD use has been found to demonstrate desirable patient-reported outcomes as a general trend. The participants in this study noted statistically significant subjective improvement in swelling and pain, ease of use of device and adherence to training and compliance with device. FLX appears to be positively received by patients, and the authors recommend its consideration for management of bilateral lower extremity phlebolymphedema.

Dispositional optimism, sleep, and trait affective mediators: A latent variable approach

Dispositional optimism has been shown to be associated with better sleep. However, most existing studies rely on subjective assessments of sleep, which may not align with objective assessments of sleep. Additionally, research investigating the mechanisms underlying the association between optimism and sleep is lacking. Moreover, the confounding role of possible content overlap in measures relevant to the constructs of interest has been neglected. To address these gaps, we utilised latent variable analysis and investigated the mediating role of depression and trait anxiety across two large-scale studies (total N = 2312), with objective sleep measures included in Study 2. In Study 1 (N = 1010), a significant and medium association was found between optimism and better subjective sleep. Here, depression emerged as a robust mediator. In Study 2, both objective (N = 742) and subjective (N = 1302) sleep measures were analysed. Findings revealed a small and significant association between optimism and better subjective sleep, which was mediated by depression. However, optimism was not associated with objective sleep. Trait anxiety was a non-significant mediator in both studies. The current study suggests that the association between dispositional optimism and subjective sleep outcomes do not translate to similar results with objective sleep.

The Influence of Sound Slide Learning Media on Improving Student Learning Outcomes in Integrated Social Studies at SMP Negeri Satap Sinairusi MBD

Sound Slides or sound slides are an innovation in learning that can be used as a learning medium and are effective in helping students understand abstract concepts to become more concrete (concretizing something that is abstract). Says that learning outcomes are changes in individual behavior which include the cognitive, affective and psychomotor domains. The learning outcomes referred to in this research are the changes obtained by students in completing the learning program through audio-visual learning media. This research was carried out at Satap Sinairusi MBD State Middle School for one month using this research method, namely quasi-experiment or quasi-experiment. Quasi Experiment has a control group, but it cannot function fully to control the variables that influence the implementation of the experiment, this is because the group used is a pre-existing group. Therefore, quasi experiments are used if it is difficult to get a control group. The learning outcomes of students from the experimental class experienced major changes after using sound slide learning media when compared to the control class which did not use sound slide learning media. This proves that the sound slide learning media has an effect on student learning outcomes in social studies subjects.

Combined Anterolateral Ligament Reconstruction Results in Better Knee Stability and More Satisfactory Subjective Outcomes in Non-Athlete Patients Undergoing Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Background: Consensus has not yet been reached regarding combined anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ALLR) with revisional anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (RACLR). We aimed to compare the clinical outcomes between patients who underwent isolated RACLR and those who underwent RACLR combined with ALLR. Methods: Between June 2010 and June 2021, 49 patients who underwent RACLR were retrospectively reviewed over a 24-month follow-up. Patients were categorized into the isolated RACLR (n = 37, group 1) or combined ALLR group (n = 12, group 2). Clinical outcomes were evaluated with several patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and minimal clinically important differences (MCIDs) for each PROM. The side-to-side difference (SSD) of the anterior instability was measured. The pivot-shift test was performed. Results: Baseline characteristics showed no differences between the groups. PROMs showed no significant differences between the groups at the 2-year follow-up. Group 2 was superior to group 1 in the MCID achievement rate for Lysholm knee and International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) subjective scores at 24 months postoperatively. At the final follow-up, the proportion of IKDC grade A in SSD for anterior laxity was higher in group 2 than in group 1 (58.3% versus [vs.] 18.3%, p = 0.009), and the proportion of pivot-shift grade 0 was also higher in group 2 (66.7% vs. 27.0%, p = 0.013). The "near return to activity" rate was also higher in group 2 than in group 1 (83.3% vs. 45.9%, p = 0.043). Conclusions: Combining ALLR with RACLR in non-athletes results in a higher proportion of patients with less mechanical graft failure and satisfactory clinical outcomes.

Efficacy and safety of middle turbinate surgery: a systematic review.

Middle turbinate (MT) surgery is extremely common during endoscopic sinus surgery procedures, though no agreement exists on which techniques provide the best outcomes. This PRISMA-compliant systematic review aims to assess which MT surgery technique yields the least postoperative adverse effects and the best objective and subjective outcomes. A comprehensive search criteria was conducted in multiple databases up to July 3, 2023, to identify studies reporting surgical treatments of the MT. After screening and quality assessment, 14 articles were included for analysis. Data on patients demographics, surgical approaches, postoperative treatment and follow-up, objective and subjective outcomes were extracted and reviewed. Out of 173 unique papers identified, 14 articles met the inclusion criteria, predominantly randomized controlled trials (n = 9). Antero-inferior middle turbinectomy was the predominant surgical approach. Most studies evaluated results with postoperative endoscopy, a superior outcome was documented in the intervention group (ten out of eleven cases). In four out five studies using the SNOT-22, the treatment group was associated with a statistically significant improvement. Olfactory questionnaires highlighted superior olfactory outcome in two out of three studies. The UPSIT score revealed no significant difference between groups. Objective olfactory assessments favored treatment groups in both studies utilizing olfactometry. It seems that a partial MT surgical approach consistently yields subjective and objective improvements compared to conservative measures, also suggesting a positive impact on smell function. Despite it appears that better outcomes with fewer complications are consistently achieved with partial techniques, it remains challenging identifying which partial technique surpasses the others, due to significant heterogeneity among the studies.
