Understanding the attractiveness of types of historic districts in Bandung: implementing heritage conservation based on public perception

ABSTRACT Cultural heritage conceptually addresses the conservation of physical and non-physical dimensions. Heritage conservation generally intends to create pleasant spatial experiences and socio-culturally friendly living environments while accommodating contemporary needs. Conservation frameworks for protecting urban fabric driven by physical authenticity and expert judgment need to pay increased attention to public-based assessment experiences to improve people’s perspectives on the quality of urban historic areas. The notions of inclusive conservation posit that community understanding is essential for appreciating historic urban areas due to various social, cultural, historical, and political conditions. According to public narratives and perspectives, this study describes the types of urban historic districts perceived as attractive. The investigation uses the qualitative method to analyze data from 170 participants obtained through an online questionnaire and content analysis methods with open, axial, and selective coding. The findings reveal that from the public perspective of environmental quality assessment, historic districts are categorized under three types according to attractiveness. Three types of historic areas are vibrant, relaxing, and dull districts. As such, the study emphasizes the importance of human sensory experience in urban planning and design and its consequences for urban heritage conservation.

The Quality of Duck Meat from the Perspective of Physical Measurements and Expert Judgment

Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationships between some physicochemical properties and organoleptic assessments of duck meat quality and expert assessment of the general appearance of raw breast and leg muscles. Body, carcass, breast and leg muscle weight were analysed. For both breast and leg muscles the following parameters were recorded: water holding capacity, thermal drip, colour lightness L*, electrical conductivity after 15 minutes and 24 hours post mortem, as well as four traits subject to expert organoleptic evaluation (general appearance, colour, odour and fatness). The dependence was evaluated using the Pearson’s correlation and multiple regression equations (the general appearance was treated as a dependent variable). Three sets of variables were considered as factors influencing the general appearance of the raw breast and leg muscles. First, the influence of jointly selected performance traits and physicochemical properties of meat was analysed. Next, the impact of only the second-mentioned group of discriminants was considered, and then the dependence on other organoleptic attributes. It was shown that for both muscle groups, the following have a significant effect on the general appearance: muscle weight (breast muscle P<0.0001, leg muscle P<0.0001) in the first set, electrical conductivity 15 minutes after slaughter (breast muscle P = 0.023, leg muscle P = 0.042) in the second, and colour (both muscle groups P<0.0001) in the third. Muscle weight, electrical conductivity 15 minutes post mortem and visually assessed colour can be used to make a preliminary assessment of the technological and culinary quality of duck meat. Moreover, measurement with a conductometer is an economical and fast method, possible to carry out in a slaughterhouse.

Artificial intelligence in healthcare: Setting new algo RHYTHM in medicine

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly expanding avenue in science and is often used to describe the use of computers, big data mining, modeling, and network that may simulate intelligent behavior and critical thinking similar to a human being but at an exceedingly fast pace. What lies at the heart of AI are intelligent algorithms that drive the whole process integratively, imparting the decisive ability to machines. The artificial intelligence market is expected to grow at a rate of 39.4% by 2022-2028. British mathematician Alan Turing’s 1950 paper “Computing Machinery and Intelligence " established AI's fundamental goal and vision. Fundamentally, AI is a branch of computer science that aims to answer Turing’s question of replicating human intelligence as machines. Since AI research aims to make smarter algorithms evolve and emulate human-like functioning, the degree to which an AI system can replicate human capabilities is used to determine the types of AI. The volume, magnitude, and complexity of data in healthcare mean that artificial intelligence (AI) will be increasingly applied and exploited, with several types of AI already being employed by researchers, clinicians, and data analysts. AI is a collective term, not just one technology, with an immediate relevance to healthcare. Few AI technologies of high importance to healthcare are: Machine learning, Neural Networks, and Deep Learning Natural Language Processing ( NLP) Physical Robots Rule-based expert systems The AI-associated healthcare market is growing at an exponential pace and is expected to reach USD 6.6 billion by 2021. Precision medicine initiatives can be divided into three types of clinical areas: complex algorithms, digital health applications, and “omics”-based tests. Large genomic datasets and informatics related to demographic data or diagnostic reports are exploited by machine learning algorithms for prediction and prognosis. This is coupled with patient healthcare data, such as treatment protocols, treatment response, response to therapy, and health monitoring, with data input from clinicians, researchers, and the public domain. High throughput big data from population-based studies are used with machine learning algorithms to establish correlations, build predictive models, and provide customized treatment protocols. In Omics based era, data from genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics are exceedingly used to address and identify health-related problems in large study cohorts . This will provide opportunities for translation and transition from bench to bedside through precision medicine.

Conceptualization and development of a questionnaire to determine physical activity barriers.

[Purpose] Considering the role of physical activity on public health and the high prevalence of physical inactivity worldwide, determining physical activity barriers is critical and will be a road map for future planning. This study aimed to develop a comprehensive questionnaire to determine physical activity barriers.[Methods] By reviewing previous studies, the main domains of the questionnaire were established. A physical activity expert interviewed 20 individuals aged 18 to 65 years. The results were evaluated by an expert panel for a content validity index. Face validity, test-retest reliability, and internal consistency were established on 204 individuals.[Results] The content validity index in all items was within the acceptable range (>0.85). Face validity was appropriate, and the misunderstanding index was < 20% in all items. Test-retest reliability in the final questionnaire in all items based on Cohen’s kappa was > 0.20, indicating fair agreement. Internal consistency with Cronbach’s alpha of 0.63 was within the acceptable range.[Conclusion] The study revealed that the newly designed survey is valid, accurate, and reliable. The use of this comprehensive tool by policymakers would help them properly identify the perceived barriers, and thus perform better physical activity interventions as promotional health programs.

Frequency of Injuries to Women after Sexual Offense - Relevance of a Gynecology Examination.

Introduction Up to a third of women worldwide report having experienced an act of sexual violence during their lifetime. The emergency gynecology department is often the first port of call for affected individuals. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the importance of gynecology examinations for women after a sexual offense and to evaluate the pattern of injuries sustained. Methods This study is a retrospective single center analysis of the gynecology and forensic examination reports of all women examined for a suspected sexual offense in the central emergency department of a university hospital between 2013 and 2017 (n = 692). We evaluated genital and extragenital injury patterns, age, offender profile, time of offense, and substance use, as well as the administration of post-coital contraception and post-exposure prophylaxis for HIV. Results The affected individuals had a mean age of 26 (12 – 91 years). Almost 75% of affected individuals presented within 24 hours of the reported sexual offense. Extragenital injuries were detected in 78.6% of patients and genital injuries in 28.5%. Overall, 20.1% of the women reported complete memory loss and 18.7% partial memory loss of the actual event. Risk factors for memory lapse were the consumption of alcohol and/or the (possibly non-consensual) administration of other substances acting on the central nervous system. A history of alcohol consumption by the victim (hazard ratio [HR] 1.95; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.21 – 3.12, p = 0.006) and younger victims aged between 25 – 49 years (HR 1.75; 95% CI 1.07 – 2.85, p = 0.025) were associated with the occurrence of extragenital injuries. However, if the perpetrator was someone who was known to the affected individual, fewer extragenital injuries were sustained (HR 0.60; 95% CI 0.36 – 0.99, p = 0.046). Reports of genital injuries, associated with an older age of affected individuals and indications of anal penetration, resulted in more frequent administration of post-exposure prophylaxis (29.1% vs. 19.5%, p < 0.012) and hepatitis B (active) vaccination (40% vs. 28.5%, p < 0.028). Conclusion Emergency gynecology examinations form a fundamental component of the medical care and the assessment of affected women after a sexual offense, since almost a third of victims sustain injuries to the genital region. In addition to a detailed complete physical examination and expert forensic documentation of physical and genital injuries, victims should also be offered psychological support which is easy for them to access.

Evaluation of an Arnis-Based Exercise Program for Community-Dwelling Older Adults in the Philippines: An Exploratory Study

Aim: Arnis is the national martial art of the Philippines. Similar to Tai Chi, a martial art with established therapeutic effects, it can improve the balance control of older adults. However, there has been no study conducted to prove this. This study aimed to design and evaluate an Arnis-based exercise program to improve the static and dynamic balance control of community-dwelling Filipino older adults. Methods: A qualitative exploratory study using the Delphi Method was conducted. A 12-week moderate-intensity Arnis-based exercise program for older adults was designed. A Physical Therapist, Geriatrician, Sports Scientist, Arnis Expert, and Senior Citizen separately evaluated the video-recorded exercise program. Semi-structured interviews were individually completed online to gather their feedback. Three researchers completed the thematic analysis. Results: Four themes represented the evaluation of the Arnis-based exercise program: Program presentation, Participant consideration, Program aspects, and safety provisions. After one round of interviews, a strong consensus was reached based on the program's appropriateness, difficulty level, benefits, and feasibility for older adults. However, the exercise program needs to be revised to improve on the aspects of safety, instructions, structure, and progression. Conclusion and Implications: The resource persons recommend the Arnis-based exercise program as an appropriate and feasible intervention to improve the static and dynamic balance control of older adults. However, the second round of interviews is recommended to evaluate further the revised program. More studies also are necessary to establish the actual effect of this Arnis-based exercise program using experimental design.

Active shooter mitigation strategies in small rural churches.

Gun violence in places of worship (POW) has long been an issue and has been addressed repeatedly in the literature. Contextually, most of the research has been pertinent to relatively large POW, situated in an urban setting. However, rural churches have not been addressed, and they appear to have a far less defensive posture, mainly because of their remote location and the extended time required for first responders to arrive, which in turn requires a higher level of independent operation in terms of defense and medical response. Having retained an off-duty officer is a strong deterrent and provides the ability to handle any issues that may arise, including lower violence level events. If retaining an officer is not an option, having a well-trained volunteer armed team and a clear plan of action is vital to surviving such an event. Furthermore, due to the extended response and transport time, it is critical to have proper medical training, such as Stop the Bleed® and cardio-pulmonary resuscitation. This article's focus is not only on response but preparedness, which reinforces the response, as well as prevention and deterrence. An exhaustive best practices review has informed the solutions offered, supplemented by experience and recommendations of a highly experienced physical security expert and a police officer member of a Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team.

Registered dietitians\u2019 beliefs and behaviours related to counselling patients on physical activity and sedentary behaviour from a theory of planned behaviour perspective

BackgroundRegistered dietitians working in team-based primary care settings (e.g., family health teams [FHTs]) are positioned to counsel on physical activity and sedentary behaviour when providing nutrition-related services to promote health and prevent disease. This qualitative study explored FHT registered dietitians’ beliefs and behaviours related to counselling patients on physical activity and sedentary behaviour.MethodsTwenty registered dietitians in FHTs in Ontario, Canada were interviewed in person. Theory of planned behaviour guided the development of this cross-sectional, descriptive study. Thematic analysis was used to identify themes within each of the following theoretical constructs (topics): registered dietitians’ behaviour (practice), behavioural intention, attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioural control related to physical activity and sedentary behaviour counselling.ResultsAll participants counselled patients on physical activity, using some motivational interviewing strategies, and most counselled on sedentary behaviour. Many participants intended to continue their current physical activity counselling practices and increase sedentary behaviour counselling. Some participants had a positive attitude about the effectiveness of counselling on physical activity and sedentary behaviour, but their belief about effectiveness was dependent on factors such as time frame for behaviour change. Many participants felt that other health care professionals expected them to counsel on physical activity and they believed that other registered dietitians counsel on physical activity and sedentary behaviour. Facilitators to counselling included FHT dynamics and time with patients. In terms of barriers, almost all participants were confident in basic PA counselling only and contended that only this is within their scope of practice. Many participants posited that exercise prescription is outside their scope of practice. Other barriers included registered dietitians’ lack of knowledge and not having a physical activity expert on the team.ConclusionsThe results suggest that strategies are warranted to improve FHT registered dietitians’ knowledge, attitude, and counselling skills related to physical activity and sedentary behaviour. This study provides a strong foundation to develop a theory-based, quantitative measure to assess physical activity and sedentary behaviour counselling practices and determinants among registered dietitians.

Retrospective evaluation of regional telemedicine team meetings for multiple sclerosis (MS) patients: Experience from the Caen MS expert center in Normandy, France.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating disease requiring multidisciplinary care coordination. Recent development of diagnosis criteria and disease modifying treatments have encouraged the setup of regional team meetings by MS expert centers, known as CRC Sep, to improve the quality of care provided to patients with complex cases. The CRC Sep in Caen initiated regional telemedicine meetings named Télé-SEP, operating since 2016. The objective of this study was to evaluate the Télé-SEP used by neurologists, on MS patient care management in Normandy. An internal ex-itinere evaluation was conducted with a retrospective descriptive observational study from July 2016 to June 2018. The Télé-SEP meetings were organized with 41 neurologists using a regional telemedicine platform (Therap-e). Data were collected from online records and a declarative voluntary survey. Twenty indicators were classified in the categories: volume of activity, clinical profile, quality and impact. Fifteen meetings were organized with a median of 13 senior neurologists. One hundred forty MS cases were discussed and there was a 33% increase in the second year of Télé-SEP. Median patient age was 44 years with a 72-month median length of disease. Most patient cases required second-line treatment. Relapsing remitting MS was diagnosed in 51.4% of cases. Télé-SEP satisfaction rate was 4.5/5 and 96% of neurologists applied the medical decisions and recommendations given in the meetings. Without Télé-SEP, 54.5% of patients would have been referred to a physical expert consultation in the CRC Sep. This study showed the feasibility and relevance of regional telemedicine team meetings for MS cases in the Normandy region.

EQuilibrium: A Prototype of a Sensor-Based Balance Training and Monitoring System

Abstract Integrated sensor devices are becoming a valuable tool for monitoring, evaluation, and real-time feedback during various exercises in sports, physical rehabilitation, and injury prevention. In this paper, we present the design and development of an inertial sensor system integrated into a fitness ball called eQuilibrium. The main application of this system would be balance training, analysis, and monitoring. The sensor system is composed of an inertial measurement unit sensor with a microcontroller and a WiFi communication module. The wireless sensor device is sending data to LabView application running on a laptop computer. The gyroscope and accelerometer provide a variety of signals, and we defined and evaluated three possible metrics to match the signals with the actual execution of the exercises. The metrics include i) angle rotation range, ii) mean absolute angular velocity, mean absolute acceleration deviation, and iv) mean absolute acceleration gradient. For the initial evaluation of the system, we specified test protocol and tasks that were executed by test subjects and monitored by a trained tester. There are four tasks in the protocol, and each task was being executed for at least 5 seconds. The first task was a reference task, standing on the feet of both legs. In the remaining tasks, the subject was standing on the tips of the toes (both legs, single leg), with the heels as high as possible off the ground. We conducted initial tests to analyze the operation of the system and obtain the initial measurement results. Our preliminary results indicate that several scalar metrics derived from motion sensor data can be used to evaluate motion intensity in the control of body balance. Rotation angle range, mean absolute rotation speed, mean absolute acceleration standard deviation, and mean absolute acceleration gradient are scalar values and independent of sensor axis orientation. In the future, we plan to perform more test executions and compare the sensor results with subjective self-reports of the test subjects, as well as the physical rehabilitation expert evaluations.

Preliminary Aquatic Physical Therapy Core Sets for Children and Youth With Neurological Disorders: A Consensus Process.

To report on the preliminary aquatic physical therapy core sets for children and youth with neurological disorders using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health-children and youth version. A formal and structured consensus process was developed, integrating the findings of preparatory studies: a systematic literature review, expert survey with 69 participants, and a qualitative study with 43 participants. Five preliminary aquatic physical therapy core sets were described: a Comprehensive Core Set (64 categories); a Common Brief (13 categories); and 3 age-specific Core Sets: infant (below 6 years, 18 categories), school-age (from 6 to <14 years, 22 categories), and youth (from 14 to 18 years, 19 categories). Consensus among aquatic physical therapists' expert opinions identified the relevant intervention categories available when treating children and youth with neurological disorders. This list of intervention categories can be used in practice, research, education, and health administration.

Comparison and Construction of Body Fat Standards for Different Age Groups among University Male Students

Objectives: This study examined the differences in body fat percent and its variables comparing it with different age groups in university male students. The present study also aimed at constructing body fat standards for university male students. Methods/Statistical Analysis: Five thousand male participants were chosen randomly for the purpose of research. The participant’s age was from 18-25 years. Eight age groups were formed according to the age of participating students. Group one had participants with 18 years of age, group two - 19 years, group three - 20 years, group four - 21 years, group five - 22 years, group six - 23 years, group seven - 24 years and group eight had participants with 25 years of age. All participants had undergone testing on selected variables at different times. Technical support was taken from physical education expert to collect the data on body fat percent and other variables. Collected data was analyzed with one-wayanova and .05 were set as the level of significance. Findings: Analysis of collected data from present study revealed a highly significant difference in body fat percent between various age groups (F 7, 4992 = 93.6), fat mass (F 7, 4992 = 56.80), lean body mass ( F 7, 4992 = 15.23) and body density (F 7, 4992 = 94.81). The range for body fat standards was 27% for group eight (25 years). Application/Improvement: There was as ignificant change in body fat percent, lean mass, fat mass and body density among different age groups. Body fat increased with the advancement of age in university youths. The significant difference found can be attributed to various factors. Body fat percent was least in the first year of university i.e. 18 years age group. The student seems to be more active in early years of their college. While it was observed that body fat percent was highest in group eight (25 years) i.e. during the later stages of the university. Generally, students are less inclined towards physical activities in the later stage of their university years due to more concentration towards studies and career building. This may lead to accumulation of more fat in this age group.

Проблеми представлення експертних даних у системах підтримки прийняття рішень

It has been described the basic peculiarities of interaction with an expert, characterizing different expert examination stages. It is shown that at each examination stage, involving the physical expert, certain problems arise, resulting, mostly, from the difference between the form of information representation by the expert and the form of information input into the decision support system. Conceptual recommendations are suggested, allowing examination organizers to avoid the detected problems and make the process of expert data collection more substantial and constructive. Suggested recommendations are to be used as a methodical basis during expert examinations and development of interface for decision support systems. Fig.: 7. Refs: 12 titles.

Resident-Perceived Benefit of a Diagnostic and Interventional Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Curriculum: A Multifaceted Approach Using Independent Study, Peer Teaching, and Interdisciplinary Collaboration.

Musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSUS) training is now a required component of physiatry residency, but formal curriculum guidelines are not yet required or established. The authors' objective was to assess the educational value of a collaborative residency MSUS training program. The authors designed a structured MSUS training curriculum for residents based on the authors' experience and previous literature. Twenty-five residents participated in this MSUS curriculum designed by faculty and chief residents. Resident volunteers were trained by the faculty as "table trainers" who taught their peers in small groups. Hands-on MSUS training sessions were led by a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation faculty MSUS expert. A Likert scale-formatted questionnaire assessed resident-perceived value of the curriculum. Response rate was 96% (22 of 23). Self-reported MSUS knowledge comparing precurriculum and postcurriculum implementation resulted in significant improvement (P = 0.001). Peer teaching was highly valued, with 86% of residents rating it "very" or "extremely" beneficial (mean [SD] score, 3.9 [1.1]). Self-guided learning, by supplemental scanning and reading, was rated "beneficial" or "very beneficial" by 73% of residents (3.0 [0.7]). The authors' successful pilot program may serve as a teaching model for other residency programs.
