    Background: Diabetes is chronic health problem which couldnt be cured. Use of medical therapy in a long term need huge budget and increase risk of adverse effect. Complementary/ alternative medicine CAM) is a choice for patient in diabetes care management beside conventional medical therapy. Some of CAM were’nt have enough evidence based support respect to its benefit and adverse effect. Objective: Aim of the study was to explore pattern of use of CAM by diabetic patient. Methods: The study used qualitative descriptive phenomenology method and data collected by in-depth interview. Participants were 4 diabetic patient and 2 of diabetic patient family member who used CAM. Result: Diabetes patients perceive complementary therapy as an effort to manage disease, complement to other diabetes care regiments, and substitutes or complements of medical drugs therapy. Reasons of use of complementary therapy were low cost, practical, and effective therapeutic impact. CAMs used by diabetes patient were herbs, animal, supplement diet, pray, and massage. Sources of information of CAM were families, friends, and traditional healer. Herbs ingredients were boiled, applied with hot water, made like a coffee, or cooked like salads/ vedgetables. Impact of complementary therapy used faced by diabetic patient were both beneficial and detrimental. Discussion: Study findings congruent with other studies. Diabetes patient manage CAM administration by themself and no consultation with health professionals that may harmfull for them eventhough they only experience minor side effect. Its need further study to find conclusive CAM effectivity and safety. Conclutions: The study findings consist of diabetes patient perception about CAM, reasons of CAM uses, how to uses CAM, and impact felt after CAM uses. Use of complementary therapy need to be consulted with health professionals to help diabetic patient consider its adverse effects and beneficials.

    Background: Clinical practice was one of the important parts in nursing student’s educational process. It gave a lot of experience to the student about truly learning. Clinical practice was one of function that should be available in professional practitioner, especially in service area like nursing. Clinical instructor participation on clinical teaching influenced student clinical performance. Purposes: The purpose of this research is to explore the satisfaction of nursing students in having clinical teaching during clinical practice process. Method: This research was a kind of qualitative research design with phenomenological approach and undergraduate bachelor degree nursing students as informant. The number of informant was 6 students. The research conducted on May 2011, by focus group discussion (FGD) method. The informants were taken by purposive sampling. Result: The research showed that clinical teaching process had a lot of benefits in giving direction and guidance to the students during practice. Characteristic of the guide, time and intensity of teaching influenced clinical teaching during practice.

It is a Tamil tradition to welcome enemies with pleasure to our home. The novel is narrated by Saravanan's mother Mutthammal. This article is intended to highlight the problems found in this novel

    3D geometry and architecture of a normal fault zone in poorly lithified sediments: A trench study on a strand of the Baza Fault, central Betic Cordillera, south Spain

    Get PDF
    Successive excavation of 13 trenches of different orientations reveals the complexity of a normal fault zone in Pliocene-Pleistocene unconsolidated sediments on a strand of the Baza Fault, central Betic Cordillera, south Spain. These trenches and the excavation floor are interpreted and integrated to reconstruct the 3D geometry and internal architecture of the fault zone. The structure consists of two main fault strands: an eastern one with a few hundred metres throw and a western one with at least 15 m throw. These strands interact and gradually merge to the south, bounding a main deformation zone narrowing from ∌7 to 1 m along strike. Fault-bounded rock bodies, clay and sand smears, and clay injections define the structure. These features are highly variable in 3D. In the northern part of the outcrop, deformation is localized around the main strands, brittle in the west and more ductile to the east. As the strands and their fault zones increasingly interact, fault throw, rock deformation and maturity of the structure increase. Mechanical stratigraphy also controls the style of deformation. A realistic representation of this 4D picture of fault deformation is critical for modelling fluid flow in shallow to possibly deep, faulted sedimentary reservoirs.This research was founded by research group VIGROB053 (University of Alicante)

    Background: Changes occur along with advancing age, including needs and patterns of sleep. Sleep becomes an important basic needs related to well being in the elderly. Sleep satisfaction marked by good sleep quality. Objective: The purpose of this study was compare elderly sleep quality in institutional and community dwelling. Methods: Study conducted in Harapan Asri Nursing Home and RW V Kelurahan Pedalangan Semarang from 5 till 17 May 2014. A total of 110 elderly in nursing home (n=37) and community dwelling (n=73) capable of participating in data collection and free from cognitive deficits or functional impairment were found. The Indonesian version of Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used to measure sleep quality. Poor sleep quality defined by global PSQI score above 5. Descriptive statistics and Mann-Whitney test were used for data analysis. Results: Most participants in nursing home were poor sleeper (81.1%), while less than a half of participants in community were poor sleeper (45.2%). This study found there are differences elderly sleep quality in nursing home and elderly who living with families in community. (Sig= 0.001, p value < 0.05) Conclusion: This study showed good sleep quality in elderly living with family in community higher than in nursing home. The nurse may able to give an intervention and collaborate with family or other social support to improve sleep quality in elderly. Keyword: sleep quality, nursing home, community

    Deformation History of the Pasayten Fault Zone, North Cascades, Washington and British Columbia

    Get PDF
    The Pasayten fault extends ~250 km from Washington to British Columbia (BC), roughly following the controversial, paleomagnetically defined “Baja BC” boundary. This study investigated the deformation history of the Pasayten fault zone through mapping contacts, measuring orientations of foliations, lineations, and folds, and examining kinematic indicators in the northern segment in BC and in the southern projection of the fault in Washington. In the northern area, the ~110-105 Ma Pasayten fault separates the Jurassic-Cretaceous Methow basin from the Middle Jurassic to mid-Cretaceous Eagle Plutonic Complex and Permian Eastgate-Whipsaw metamorphic belt to the northeast. Structural orientations and kinematic indicators in outcrops and thin sections demonstrate ductile sinistral movement of the fault with a small component of reverse or normal slip. Any dextral slip was brittle. The southern area is on strike with the projection of the fault where the Cretaceous Okanogan Range batholith intrudes undated Leecher Metamorphics. Based upon the lack of offset contacts and foliations which strike discordant to the projection of the fault, the Pasayten fault does not continue south of its previously mapped termination; its slip was likely transferred to the Cretaceous Red Shirt and Methow River thrusts. Therefore, the Pasayten fault is not a major structure responsible for postulated dextral transport of the Baja BC hypothesis
