Calcium Supplementation Dose and Vegetable Intake Determine Preeclampsia

Preeclampsia is one of the cause of high maternal mortality rates. Risk factors for preeclampsia include a lack of nutrients such as vitamin A, calcium, sodium and potassium. Calcium intake in pregnant women is not only obtained from calcium supplementation, but also obtained from consumed foods such as vegetables. to analyzed the relationship between calcium supplementation dose and vegetable intake with preeclampsia in third trimester of pregnant women. observational analytic used a prospective cohort design. A total of 65 third trimester pregnant women participated in the study in Bantul, Yogyakarta. The calcium supplementation dose was obtained through interview using a questionnaire, while vegetable intake was obtained through the food frequency and food recall 2x24 hours. 16 third trimester pregnant women experienced preeclampsia. The mean calcium dose consumed per day was 476.2 mg. The average intake of vegetables per day for pregnant women was 250.9 gr. Kaplan-Mier with the log rank method states that there was a significant difference between calcium supplementation dose (p=0.007) and preeclampsia. There was a significant difference between vegetable intake (p=0.007) and preeclampsia. there was a significant relationship between calcium supplementation dose and vegetable intake with preeclampsia in third trimester pregnant women

Sensitivity Analysis of Transportation Production Costs in Indonesia

The transportation production cost (TPC) considerably has strong influence to the national economic condition. This paper focused on the analysis of the transportation production cost sensitivity in relation to the variation of the external affecting factor, which are fuel price, rupiah exchange rate and Bank of Indonesia interest rate. Based on the R2 values, the TPC components in general have significant correlation, with the fuel prices. However, they do not have high correlation to the fluctuation of interest rate and rupiah exchange rate. The sensitivity analysis shows that a 10% rise on fuel price would cause 6%, 2%, 7%, 2.4%, and 4.9% rise on the TPC of intercity bus, ferry ship, interisland ship, train, and airline, respectively

Nonlinear coupling of nano mechanical resonators to Josephson quantum circuits

We propose a technique to couple the position operator of a nano mechanical resonator to a SQUID device by modulating its magnetic flux bias. By tuning the magnetic field properly, either linear or quadratic couplings can be realized, with a discretely adjustable coupling strength. This provides a way to realize coherent nonlinear effects in a nano mechanical resonator by coupling it to a Josephson quantum circuit. As an example, we show how squeezing of the nano mechanical resonator state can be realized with this technique. We also propose a simple method to measure the uncertainty in the position of the nano mechanical resonator without quantum state tomography

The Prevalence and Risk Factors of GERD Among Indonesian Medical Doctors

Background: Based on our knowledge, the study of gastrointestinal reflux disease (GERD) among certain profession has never been conducted. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence and risk factors of GERD among Indonesian doctors. Methods: A consecutive study involving 515 doctors was conducted in October 2015. The GerdQ score was used to the diagnosis of GERD and determined its impact on daily life. All possible risk factors were also analysed. Results: A total of 515 subjects completed the questionnaire. The mean age of them was 41.37 ± 11.92 years old. Fifty-five percent of them were male and 60.6% general practitioners. The prevalence of GERD was 27.4% of which 21.0% was had GERD with low impact on daily life, and 6.4% was GERD with high impact on daily life. The statistically significant risk factors of GERD was found in age >50 y.o (p = 0.002; OR = 2.054), BMI >30 kg/m2 (p = 0.016; OR = 2.53), and smokers (p = 0.031; OR = 1.982). Sex and education level were not found significant statistically as the risk factors of GERD. Conclusions: The prevalence of GERD among Indonesian physician was 27.4%. We found that age over 50 y.o, obesity and smoking habit were the risk factors of GERD in Indonesian doctors.&nbsp

Frekuensi Nafas Bayi yang Menggunakan Ventilator Sebelum dan Sesudah Pronasi

Aplying position in infant is one of the nursing actions which be done by nurses frequently. We need evidence based and support to healing the patients by applying the right position. The prone position (PP) has been known as a position were support and improve of oxygenation in infants who respiratory problems compared with the supine position, however the PP often associated with SIDS (Suddent Infant Death Syndrome). Nurses in Perinatologi were aplyied PP to baby but has not been well documented yet so unknown impact on the respiratory rate. The study was conducted to determine the frequency difference before and after PP in infant when using a ventilator. The research design is pre experimental one group pretest-posttest. Sample of this research is 18 babies by characteristics; age of 44,78±25,06 days; boys 61%; girls 39%; birth weight: 2008,33±977,84; mode of ventilator: pressure support; used synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation and assist control; and length of use ventilator: 36,67±19,57 days. The result shows that there are significance differences of respiratory rate in infant who received ventilator before and after aplying on PP (p=0,027, α=0,05). From that research, the recommendation of nursing implication is to improving PP intervention to babies who are in stable condition and weaning process. It is needed to conduct an advanced research with a big amount of sample, conducted by quasi experiment or true experiment method with custody variable controlling. It is also needed more analyzes for the correct PP time
