Menstrual Health Symptoms and Literacy among Young Women in Aotearoa New Zealand: A Nationwide Cross-Sectional Survey.

To explore menstrual cycle symptoms, information sources, and menstrual health literacy in young women (age 13-25) and those who menstruate in Aotearoa New Zealand DESIGN AND SETTING: A cross-sectional online survey in Aotearoa New Zealand was used. The participants were 1334 respondents (age 13-25 years, mean age 19.8) who had had at least 3 periods and were currently living in New Zealand. An online survey was hosted by Qualtrics between October 2021 and January 2022. Information was obtained on menstrual cycle characteristics and symptoms and menstrual health literacy. Respondents reported high rates of regular dysmenorrhea (89%), fatigue/tiredness (78.1%), and mood changes (72.5%) associated with menstruation. A higher proportion of rangatahi (younger generation) Māori reported irregular cycles (53.5%) compared with non-Māori respondents (41.7%). Normalization of symptoms, especially pain (80.2%), was high. Most respondents recognized the need to see a doctor for period pain that impacted their daily lives (84.7%). However, noncyclical pelvic pain (45.7%), heavy bleeding (39%), and intermenstrual bleeding (29%) were less likely to be recognized as symptoms that require a doctor's visit. The main sources of menstrual health knowledge before menarche were a family member (74.2%) and health and physical education classes at school (63.7%). Many young people reported receiving little or no information about periods before menarche (37.9%), with very few respondents receiving information on how to manage menstrual symptoms (15.1%). Menstrual symptoms are common, and the provision of culturally safe information and opportunities to learn is important for young people, whānau, schools, and health care practitioners.

A Theoretical Framework of Knowledge Management Systems on Quality Management Systems

Developing knowledge management systems (KMS) significantly supports, manages, or enhances the organization's knowledge management (KM) processes and activities. However, studies have shown that very few discussions focus on formulating the theoretical framework to support the development of KMS. Therefore, this paper aims to fill the void and gap in developing a more effective and efficient KMS. This study proposes a theoretical framework for KMS in the context of quality management systems (QMS), formulated based on three domain areas: established theories, knowledge management (KM) framework or model, and past KMS. This research output derived seven components of KMS (strategy, actors, KM process, source of knowledge, information management, continuous improvement, and infrastructure). This study has also contributed to the body of knowledge in KM by enriching the formulation of a theoretical framework for KMS. Although this study is conceptual and has yet to include the framework's validity and reliability testing, it has addressed a gap that can be potentially fulfilled and refined with more intense discussion and empirical studies.

Awareness and Knowledge About Preconception Healthcare: A Cross-Sectional Study of Early Years UAE Medical Students.

Background: Preconception health is critical for improving maternal and child health. The main objective of the study was to explore medical students' health habits, quality of life, and knowledge of preconception healthcare. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study between 15 March 2023 and 31 May 2024 among medical students at United Arab Emirates University. To determine awareness and knowledge of preconception health, we administered a survey consisting of an author's questionnaire with 35 questions covering sociodemographic characteristics and general knowledge of preconception health, as well as the WHO Quality of Life Scale-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF). Results: The participants were predominantly under 25 years old (98.5%), Emirati (91.1%), single (92.6%), and female (95.8%); only 3.4% had been pregnant before. Regarding health awareness and behaviors, a significant number of females (58.0%) had never visited a gynecologist. The majority of students (72.4%) participated in sports activities. The overall level of knowledge was low, with a mean level of 7.5 (SD = 6.36) out of 24. The Internet (webpages, blogs, webinars) (64.5%) was the major source of knowledge regarding healthcare information, followed by social media platforms (Twitter, Facebook, TikTok, Instagram) and mobile applications (57.5%), books (48.6%), and family members (57.0%). There was a statistically significant correlation between knowledge levels and the Internet (p < 0.004) or family (p < 0.001) as a source of knowledge. Additionally, there was a statistically significant positive correlation between knowledge and quality of life across all four WHOQOL domains. Conclusions: Medical knowledge might positively affect general well-being. Fostering stronger social networks and support systems could benefit preconceptional awareness and knowledge.

«Яремчук: Незрівнянний світ краси» (2024): художній потенціал «нефікційного» (кіно)тексту

In terms of the discourse of the literary potential of non-fiction (cinema) texts, the article under discussion presents a detailed analysis of the biographical documentary “Yaremchuk: The Incomparable World of Beauty” (2024) directed by Artem Hryhorian. It points out that in order to artistically reconstruct the history of personal and creative growth of the famous Bukovynian singer and folk artist, the first Ukrainian pop star, the lead singer of the VIA “Smerichka” Nazariy Yaremchuk, the filmmakers have skillfully combined a number of non-fictional sources in the film. In particular, these are diaries, memoirs, interviews, expert comments, photographs, film documents, and newsreels, which make the film emotionally rich and authentic, at the same time revealing the deep literary potential of the documentary text. The article emphasizes that Nazariy Yaremchuk’s diaries have become a reliable source of knowledge about him, allowing the readers to understand his inner world, thoughts, feelings, experiences, as well as trace up the sequence of his life events. They do not just outline the author’s inner world, his individual perception of the surrounding reality, but, within the literary discourse, become a unique text, marked with poetry and deep psychology. This cinema text is a literary study of an exceptional personality with a unique inner world and a deep understanding of the Ukrainian soul, with spirituality and close connection to nature, with a desire to preserve and develop folk culture, promoting it in his work. The artist is regarded as a special character of his time. He expresses the spirit of the era whose social and spiritual life is reflected in his fate. The filmmakers present the material in such a way as to convey the hero’s inner feelings and love for his country and his muse – the song. Accordingly, the latter plays a leading role in the film, becoming a means of expressing the inner world and psychology of the hero. The songs that sound in the film set the mood for a certain emotional atmosphere, as well as move on the film narrative, emphasizing the importance of the musical heritage that Nazariy Yaremchuk left behind. It is essential that the cinema text intertextually refers to the legendary film-musical “Chervona Ruta” (1971), the film directed by the Estonian filmmakers “Smerichka Ensemble under the Direction of Levko Dutkivsky” (1975), and the musical film “Chervona Ruta. 10 Years Later” (1981).

Pravdaže mi povedali „tauglich“... Spomienky vojaka Juraja Orosiho na Veľkú vojnu

About 400 000 men from the territory of today’s Slovakia enlisted in the First World War. Despite their irreplaceable place in the ranks of the Austro-Hungarian army, in which they fought on the front in Galicia, Serbia, Italy and even on the western battlefield, we have very few authentic memories or testimonies of the period from 1914 to 1918. One of those who has preserved his story from the Great War is Juraj Orosi, a native of the eastern Slovak village of Cabov in the Vranov nad Topľou district. Through his memoirs published in Slovak Defense, we go back to August 1915 and the main hero of our story travels to the Galicia battlefield from where, after various peripetias, he reaches the front again in Romania. However, Orosi’s story does not end with the end of the First World War in 1918, but through his lens we follow the events of the first post-revolutionary years, which were characterised by fighting with the Hungarians or the building and formation of state bodies and the army. Juraj Orosi’s memoirs are a valuable source of knowledge about the times that influenced the younger generation and Juraj Orosi himself. He dealt with his disillusionment with the new conditions by moving to the United States. It was there in 1937 that he published his memoirs of the First World War and the founding of Czechoslovakia in Slovenská Obrana (Slovak Defense).

소크라테스의 선의 추구와 선험적 정당화

In the dialogue Laches, Plato addresses the issue of justification of Educational content in the language of today’s curriculum researchers. Plato’s view on the issue can be summarized as follows: the value of educational content should be judged not from the perspective of utility, but in light of whether or not it helps to care for the soul. Here, ‘care for the soul’ is possible through the ‘life of reflection’, which Socrates recommended throughout his life. In his view, human life is a process of purifying the soul through reflection. And for him, the life of reflection and purification of the soul is a command from God and the destiny of humans, and no one can be an exception to it. In the researcher’s view, this view of Plato reappears in R. S. Peters’ discussion of the transcendental justification. According to Peters, humans are born into a civilized life in which it is valuable to use reason to ask questions about the current situation and find answers. Of course, this question also includes the practical question of why we should do this and not that. Education is an activity that initiates children into a civilized life by using the accumulated results as educational content. Therefore, the demand to justify educational content is meaningful only when its value is already accepted. Peters’ discussion of the transcendental justification can be more fully formed by Plato’s view on the problem of the source of knowledge, which is implied in ‘the purification of the soul’.

SURVEI PERILAKU PENGGUNAAN SMARTPHONE DAN MANFAATNYA DI KALANGAN PELAJAR SEKOLAH MENENGAH ATAS

This study aims to describe smartphone usage behaviors among high school students in Tarutung City, and students' perceptions of the benefits of smartphones for learning. It is a quantitative study with a descriptive survey design. The research population consists of 3,604 students, and the sample size was determined using the Krejcie table, with 354 students selected at a 95% confidence level and a 5% margin of error. Stratified random sampling was used to select the sample. The results show that smartphones serve a dual role, functioning as a highly valuable learning aid and an alternative source of knowledge. However, smartphones also present challenges to students' social and psychological development, potentially fostering negative behaviors, such as decreased social interactions, weakened emotional connections, and increased risk of cyberbullying. Students perceive smartphones as having a positive potential to support learning. A limitation of this research is that it only included high school students, limiting its generalizability across all student smartphone users. Future research is recommended to include samples from all levels of education.

Kontribusi Artificial Intellegence dalam Membentuk Karakter Siswa MI/SD

The purpose of this research is to discuss the contribution of artificial intelligence to student character at the basic education level. The research method used is qualitative with a literature study. The results of this study reveal that there are three main things about the contribution of AI to the character building of MI/SD students, first, the personalization of learning, second, the impact caused both positively and negatively, and the influence of AI on the character of MI/SD students in learning. Therefore, teachers and parents need to direct students to be smart in using AI as a learning tool, not as the main source of knowledge, because AI is a man-made technology that has limitations in recognizing the psychology of students. AI is utilized to facilitate students' learning and stimulate their thinking.

The Needs of Public Health Mitigation as The Impact of Earthquake Disasters in North Sulawesi Region, Indonesia

North Sulawesi is located on a megathrust system and is very vulnerable to destructive earthquake events. Therefore, disaster mitigation from a health perspective must be carried out. Good knowledge will shape a positive attitude as a response that will determine actions in providing effective and optimal health services during a disaster. However, so far, the level of knowledge, attitudes, and actions of doctors in community health centers in North Sulawesi in facing disasters has never been evaluated, so the readiness of doctors in community health centers in facing disasters is still not well understood. One of the effects after a disaster is kidney failure (CKD) due to the lack of fluids needed by the body, making it one of the unavoidable effects of a disaster. Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is one of the diseases whose number and prevalence are significant both globally, nationally, and locally in North Sulawesi. The purpose of this research is to: 1) explore the perceptions and experiences of the community regarding the risk factors for CKD, 2) develop and test the effectiveness of a disaster-based education program in increasing community knowledge about CKD prevention. The design used is a multistage mixed method. The research began with the collection of qualitative data through in-depth interviews, followed by the development of an educational program and the experimental testing of the educational program. This research was conducted in Kuwil Village, North Minahasa Regency. A total of 15 participants were involved in the interviews and 38 participants in the experimental phase. Qualitative data is analyzed thematically, while quantitative data is analyzed descriptively through comparison. The results of the qualitative analysis yielded 2 themes. The first theme is the disparity in public knowledge about CKD, and the second theme is the public's efficacy regarding the prevention and impact of CKD. The analysis results using the paired t-test obtained a p-value of 0.000, which means that the disaster-based education program is effective in increasing public knowledge about CKD and its prevention. Having sufficient knowledge and adequate sources of information can help the community in making healthy lifestyle choices, especially in preventing the occurrence of CKD. Disaster-based education programs can be one of the approaches that community health centers can take to improve public literacy regarding CKD prevention.

Lesson Study activities are carried out in 3 stages, namely planning, implementing (do) accompanied by project-based learning, and reflection (see). The research subjects were 50 pharmacy students from Sari Mutiara University, Indonesia. The research results show that: the application of PjBL to medicinal plant tissue culture which is integrated in lesson study can improve student learning outcomes as seen from the pre-test results of 37.4% and post-test results of 83.9%. The project carried out by students on medicinal plant tissue culture in all 10 groups resulted in the production of 100% sterile media, the results of explant initiation were 94% sterile and the explants grew 99.3%.

'once they see blood then the mood for sex is spoiled' A qualitative exploration of female sex worker's male client views of menstruation, sex during menses and the menstrual disc.

To continue working during menses, female sex workers (FSW) may use unhygienic absorbents to hide their menstrual status. The menstrual disc may provide a solution. Little is known about men's knowledge and views, specifically around sex during menstruation with FSW, a population who are particularly vulnerable to violence which may be heightened during menses. To identify constructs for successful and safe menstrual disc implementation we sought to identify knowledge and attitudes towards menstruation among male clients of FSW, including views on FSW menstrual disc use during intercourse. We conducted six focus group discussions comprising a total of 51 male clients of FSW, in Kisumu, Kenya, exploring their perceptions of menses and sex during menses. In preparation for future implementation of a menstrual disc intervention, we introduced the disc to participants with an information session, answering their questions and gathering their opinions on it. Thematic analysis found most clients had limited or inaccurate knowledge about menstruation, viewing blood and the menstruator, as dirty or unclean. Sources of knowledge included school, female relatives/partners, community or church. Those reporting formal education described the biological processes more accurately, while church education lent towards stigmatized perceptions. Most participants expressed negative views towards sex during menses (i.e., unpleasurable, forbidden or risky), usually stemming from misconceptions, and reported seeking FSW services because their wife / girlfriend was menstruating. Many felt deceived if a FSW was menstruating, were often aware of materials placed vaginally to absorb blood, but generally continued with the service. No clients had prior knowledge of the menstrual disc but accepted it as a safe, hygienic, and cost-effective alternative, with some voicing interest to purchase for their wife / girlfriend. We conclude there is a need to provide accurate information on menstruation to boys and men including in school curricula and faith teaching to address lack of knowledge and negativity. These findings suggest potential for adoption of menstrual discs by FSW with minimal adverse client reaction, and highlight possible partner support for women considering adopting a menstrual disc.
