The Use of Spinning Media as an Information Service to Improve Student Career Planning

Career planning is an effort someone makes to determine the career path to be achieved after completing the educational process. Only the reality on the ground shows that students' career planning abilities are still relatively low. This is evidenced by the many students still confused about where to go after high school education. This research aims to develop and test a spinning tool as an information service to improve student career planning. This research belongs to the type of development research, which was developed using the Brog and Gall model through the stages of potential and problem analysis, data collection, media planning, design validation, design reviews, media tests, and product versions. The subjects involved in this study were two counselors and 35 ninth-grade high school students. Data were collected using the questionnaire method, with research instruments like product validity sheets and career planning ability questionnaires. The data obtained were then analyzed using quantitative descriptive analysis techniques. The results show that the value of t count ≥ t table is 31.57 > 1.691, which means that Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. Based on these results, it can be concluded that spinning media as an information service is effectively used in the guidance process because it can improve student career planning.

A product version of the Hilton-Milner theorem

Two families F,G of k-subsets of {1,2,…,n} are called non-trivial cross-intersecting if F∩G≠∅ for all F∈F,G∈G and ∩{F:F∈F}=∅=∩{G:G∈G}. In the present paper, we determine the maximum product of the sizes of two non-trivial cross-intersecting families of k-subsets of {1,2,…,n} for n≥4k, k≥8, which is a product version of the classical Hilton-Milner Theorem.

Healthcare Service Needs of Orphans and Vulnerable Children in Orphanages and Barriers Caregivers face in meeting their Healthcare Service Needs: A Mixed Method Research

ABSTRACT Poor health and well-being among orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) in orphanages has been documented in literature, and evidence has shown an association between access to healthcare and well-being among this population. This study assessed the healthcare service needs of OVC and explored the barriers their caregivers face in meeting their healthcare service needs using a mixed method research approach. The study utilized a multi-stage sampling technique in selecting 384 OVC and 14 caregivers that participated in the study. Data were collected using pre-tested questionnaire and interview guide. The quantitative data were analyzed using Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS) version 23, while the qualitative data were analyzed using thematic and content analysis. The result of the study shows that regular health assessment while in the orphanage tops the list of health services needed by OVC; this was followed by health assessment before or during admission into orphanages and facility visits for management of common illness by health professionals while health education for the children and caregivers ranked third. Mental healthcare was the least need reported by the children. From the caregivers’ perspectives, financial, structural and psychological barriers emerged as major themes for barriers faced in meeting the healthcare service needs of OVC. The study concluded that OVC are mainly in need of regular health assessment and treatment of common ailments during facility visits by health professionals. The study further shows that caregivers face significant barriers in meeting the healthcare service needs of OVC.

The Effect of Caffeine Consumption on Teenager’s Mental Health in Bangkok, Thailand

Nowadays, caffeinated drinks play a significant role not only for adults but also for teenagers. Some teenagers believe that it will help them with their school tasks, such as exams, projects, and more. Many research projects have also claimed that caffeine can help people become more energized and less tired [10]. Along with mental health, indicating that it is important, it is vital to maintain good mental health since it can make a huge impact on our daily lives [7]. We are curious about the relationship between caffeine consumption and teenagers’ mental health. So we decided to conduct a survey on teenagers ages 13-18. The data was collected online using Google Form and by sending questionnaires about the effect of caffeine consumption on teenager’s mental health in Bangkok, Thailand. We have gathered a total of 150 responses from students in grades between 7 and 12 mostly from Bangkok. Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS) version 29 was used for data analysis. The results have shown that there is a slight significant effect of caffeinated drinks on teenager’s mental health, which involves the times of the day teenagers prefer to drink caffeinated drinks (p-value = 0.001). Despite the consumption period, the types of caffeinated drinks teenagers prefer (p-value = 0.163) and the participant’s grade level (p-value = 0.448) may have also affected adolescents too. Moreover, the result of this research came out that caffeinated drinks have nearly no effect on teenager’s mental health, but they do have an effect specifically on the period of time that the teenagers consume caffeinated drinks. From our data, we can conclude that caffeinated drinks, especially tea, will significantly affect teenagers’ mental health if consumed after lunch (afternoon). This research will help raise awareness on the effect of caffeinated drinks on teenagers ages 13-18 on their mental health and also provides us with more information for further research.

Gender-based planning of meals at the household level in Ghana

Planning is important for the management and sustainable use of resources. To ensure sustainable quality meals, there is the need to plan meals in the home. Planning of meals can best be achieved if gender, especially, women who are the key people responsible for meals in the home, are involved. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the determinants of gender-based meal planning and the frequency of meals in Ghana using structured questionnaires and a multistage sampling technique. A total of 3521 households were interviewed across fourteen regions of Ghana, to identify how males and females plan their meals at the household level, and the key players involved in the choice of meals in the home. The country is stratified into regions and the regions further stratified into urban, peri-urban and rural areas. Purposive sampling was used to select households for the survey considering social classes and livelihoods of the people in the communities. Data obtained were entered in Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS) version 16 (IBM SPSS, Armonk, NY) for analysis using the Pearson’s chi square at a P-value of 0.05 to determine statistical differences between gender. Associations between factors that influence frequencies of meals were determined by Cramér's V. Findings showed that, women are mostly responsible for meals at the household level. The study also showed that most Ghanaian households eat three times per day, but their meals are often not planned. Furthermore, the findings of the study suggest that educational attainment and income do not have significant impact on the frequency of meals and gender-based planning of meals in the home. The study showed that 67.41% of households involved in the study were headed by men but those responsible for cooking were mostly women (63.71%). Only a few households planned their meals. Of these, women were mostly responsible for the provision of meals. Therefore, it is important to consider gender in the planning of meals to ensure good nutrition and food availability to the household throughout the year. Key words: food quality, food security, gender, household meal, nutrition, planning, women

Surgical Apgar Score can accurately predict the severity of post-operative complications following emergency laparotomy

BackgroundThe Surgical Apgar Score (SAS) describes a feasible and objective tool for predicting surgical outcomes. However, the accuracy of the score and its correlation with the complication severity has not been well established in many grounds of low resource settings.ObjectiveTo determine the accuracy of Surgical Apgar Score in predicting the severity of post-operative complications among patients undergoing emergency laparotomy at Muhimbili National Hospital.MethodsA prospective cohort study was conducted for a period of 12 months; patients were followed for 30 days, the risk of complication was classified using the Surgical Apgar Score (SAS), severity of complication was estimated using the Clavien Dindo Classification (CDC) grading scheme and Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI). Spearman correlation and simple linear regression statistic models were applied to establish the relationship between Surgical Apgar Score (SAS) and Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI). The Accuracy of SAS was evaluated by determining its discriminatory capacity on Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) curve, data normality was tested by Shapiro–Wilk statistic 0.929 (p < 0.001).Analysis was done using International Business Machine Statistical Product and Service Solution (IBM SPSS) version 27.ResultsOut of the 111 patients who underwent emergency laparotomy, 71 (64%) were Male and the median age (IQR) was 49 (36, 59).The mean SAS was 4.86 (± 1.29) and the median CCI (IQR) was 36.20 (26.2, 42.40). Patients in the high-risk SAS group (0–4) were more likely to experience severe and life-threatening complications, with a mean CCI of 53.3 (95% CI: 47.2–63.4), compared to the low-risk SAS group (7–10) with a mean CCI of 21.0 (95% CI: 5.3–36.2). A negative correlation was observed between SAS and CCI, with a Spearman r of -0.575 (p < 0.001) and a regression coefficient b of -11.5 (p < 0.001). The SAS demonstrated good accuracy in predicting post-operative complications, with an area under the curve of 0.712 (95% CI: 0.523–0.902, p < 0.001) on the ROC.ConclusionThis study has demonstrated that SAS can accurately predict the occurrence of complications following emergency laparotomy at Muhimbili National Hospital.

Using Artificial Neural Network to Predict Predisposing to Vulvovaginal Candidiasis among Vaginitis Cases

Background: Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is a common fungal infection caused by Candida species in the female genital tract. Objectives: This study attempts to predict predisposition to VVC related to risk factors and clinical symptoms among vaginitis cases using the artificial neural network (ANN) model. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 250 women referred to gynecology clinics in Birjand, Iran. A questionnaire was used to record participants' demographic information. Swabs were used for wet mounts and culture. Candida species were identified by morphological and physiological methods. The performance of the optimal neural network model was assessed by the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy area under the ROC curve (AUC). Descriptive statistics were used for the statistical description of data, and chi-square test, t-test, and ANN analysis using SPSS application tools (Statistical Product and Service Solutions) version 22 software at 0.05 significant level. Results: The prevalence of vulvovaginal candidiasis was 41.0%, and Candida albicans was the most frequently identified species (55.9%). The descriptive statistics (chi-square test and t-test) revealed no significant difference between the frequencies of Candida infection with demographic factors and clinical presentations. However, factors such as abortion history, number of sexual intercourse, dyspareunia, education, natural vaginal delivery (NVD), and lower abdominal pain included in our ANN model had significant differences (P &lt; 0.05). Conclusions: The result of the ANN model revealed that using demographic factors and clinical symptoms can predict VVC infection. Therefore, this model can identify the effect of the clinical presentations and symptoms of infection.

Prevalence and patterns of intimate partner violence among antenatal clinic attendees at federal medical center, Abuja.

Intimate partner violence (IPV) has been a source of increasing concern to the government of nations as well as their citizens despite measures taken to reduce it. This is supported by recent data published by the World Health Organization and other development partners. In health care facilities, intimate partner violence in pregnancy has not been screened routinely. Community-based findings have been the source of most data informing policies for decisions. These were to determine the prevalence and patterns of IPV among antenatal clinic attendees at the Federal Medical Center (FMC), Abuja. Following ethical clearance, a health facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted at the FMC, Abuja to determine the prevalence and correlates of IPV during pregnancy among attendees of antenatal clinics. It was conducted between 26th June and 17th September 2021. A total of 450 questionnaires were administered among consecutive consenting clients and 407 were returned filled giving a non-response rate of 9.6%. The questionnaire collected data on respondents' sociodemographics; experience of and types of IPV; and health problems arising from IPV. Results were presented in tables and charts and analysis was done using IBM SPSS (International Business Machines' Statistical product and service solutions) version 25 software. The mean age was 29.37 ± standard deviation 4.43 years and the predominant ethnic group was Igbo (46.5%); 96.56% were married; 68.06% had tertiary education and 49.14% were in their third trimesters. The combined incidence of intimate partner violence among the participants was 17.69% with physical violence contributing 3.19%; the head region (40%) being the most affected body part. While 34% experienced intrauterine foetal death in the past following IPV. In Miller's landmark study, 27 of 1300 sexually active young women, one in five reported partner pregnancy non promoting behaviors, such as intimidation, threats to leave the relationship if the woman did not become pregnant or actual violence. The two most significant factors for IPV were age and marital status both at P values of P = 0.0001. Medical doctors should feel more open discussing issues around IPV with their clients during antenatal visits.

DEVELOPMENT OF A LEARNING MEDIUM BASED ON EFAS TRADITIONAL GAME (ENGKLEK FUN AND SMART) TO IMPROVE STUDENTS' COMMUNICATION ABILITY IN THEMATIC LEARNING

Traditional games must be adapted for the present since they have cultural values that need to be conserved for future generations. This study attempts to create an EFAS (Engklek Fun and Smart) medium version of a typical game product. With research experience at IES Al-Ittihadiyah Berastagi, this study applies the Research and Development (R&amp;D) technique. Forty-five first graders of Islamic Elementary School (IES) Al-Ittihadiyah Berastagi became the study participants. The findings indicate that the EFAS medium is recognized as valid. The "Very Valid" category showed an 89.63% score for the EFAS medium. It is also claimed that the EFAS medium is useful. This information came from a survey of the students and teachers’ opinions. Twenty-five students completed a questionnaire on the EFAS medium, and the questionnaire received 9.6% in the "Very Practical" category. A score of 97.5% in the "Very Practical" category came from the teachers’ response to the supplied statement. The results of the two questionnaires indicate that the teachers and students’ replies are categorized as being very practical. Third, the EFAS medium is deemed operational. This was demonstrated by the fact that the students were able to respond to the ASK and DO question instruments both in writing and orally with a score of 92% during the learning process utilizing EFAS. Written responses to EFAS infer that it can be an "effective" medium, whereas oral responses indicate that the medium can help students develop their communication abilities. This justifies the declaration that the EFAS medium is legitimate, applicable, and useful for enhancing students' communication skills.

Analysis and Validation of the Aerosol Optical Depth of MODIS Products in Gansu Province, Northwest China

The accurate determination of aerosol optical depth (AOD) is of great importance for climate change research and environmental monitoring. To understand the applicability of the MODIS aerosol product inversion algorithm in Gansu Province, this work uses ground-based solar photometer AOD observation data to validate the MODIS C6 version of the AOD product. Additionally, the retrieval accuracy of MODIS C6 Deep Blue (DB) algorithm AOD products and Deep Blue and Dark Target Fusion (DB–DT combined) algorithm AOD products for Gansu Province when setting different spatial sampling windows is compared and analyzed. Meanwhile, the monitoring effects of these two AOD algorithms in typical polluted atmospheric conditions in Gansu Province are compared. The results show that (1) the correlation between the MODIS AOD products of the two algorithms and the ground-based observation data decreases with an increasing spatial sampling window size. When the spatial sampling window of the two algorithms is set at 30 km × 30 km, it is more representative of the AOD value in Gansu Province, thus reflecting local characteristics. (2) When the spatial sampling window is set at 30 km × 30 km, the inversion effect of the DB algorithm AOD is better than that of the DB–DT combined algorithm AOD on different underlying surfaces. (3) The seasonal variability in the inversion accuracy of the DB algorithm AOD is less than that of the DB–DT combined algorithm, and it has inversion advantages in spring, autumn and winter, while the DB–DT combined algorithm outperforms the DB algorithm only in winter. The inversion effect of the two algorithms on AOD is influenced by the spatial sampling window setting. (4) Both the DB algorithm AOD and the DB–DT combined algorithm AOD can monitor the distribution of AOD in the central and western regions of Gansu, especially for high values of AOD under polluted atmospheric conditions, which represents a good monitoring effect. However, the two algorithms perform poorly in monitoring the southeast region of Gansu, while there is a discontinuous AOD distribution in the northwest region of Gansu. Overall, the MODIS DB algorithm AOD product has higher applicability in Gansu Province. This work provides a good reference for local air pollution and climate prediction.

Performance of GPCP Daily Products Over Oceans: Evaluation Using Passive Aquatic Listeners

AbstractPassive Aquatic Listeners (PALs) have been increasingly deployed to collect minute‐scale surface oceanic rainfall and wind information, with a sampling area similar to the spaceborne sensor footprints. This provides an unprecedented opportunity to validate satellite precipitation products over oceans. This study evaluates the Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) daily products, including the widely used GPCP v1.3 and the newly released GPCP v3.2, over oceans using 58 PALs as references. The study shows that the GPCP performance depends on time scale, region, and rainfall intensity. The two versions of GPCP perform similarly at multi‐year and monthly scales, while GPCP v3.2 shows substantial improvements in representing rain occurrence and rain intensity at daily scale. The results also highlight the challenge of precipitation measurement over certain regions such as the tropical Southeastern Pacific and extratropical North Pacific, where both versions of the GPCP products perform similarly but exhibit noticeable differences compared to PAL observations.
