MEMAKNAI HIDUP SEBAGAI PERSIAPAN MENYONGSONG KEMATIAN YANG BAIK BERDASARKAN PEMIKIRAN SENECA

Hidup manusia merupakan perjalanan untuk membangun makna sampai pada akhir hayat. Hidup bermakna menjadi bentuk persiapan menyongsong saat kematian yang tidak terduga datangnya dan sering menggelisahkan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengeksplorasi pengalaman para lansia dalam memaknai hidupnya sebagai persiapan menyambut kematian yang baik. Penelitian kualitatif ini menggunakan metode wawancara mendalam untuk mengumpulkan data-data penting. Instrumen untuk menggali data berupa pertanyaan-pertanyaan dirumuskan berdasarkan kerangka pikir Seneca. Responden yang dipilih untuk menggali data adalah empat lanjut usia (lansia) yang berusia antara 65 sampai 83 tahun. Mereka berdomisili di Sleman, Yogyakarta. Pendekatan Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) dipilih sebagai kerangka analisis data tentang pengalaman para lansia mengisi hari-hari di masa lansia. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa para lansia memaknai hidup mereka melalui kegiatan sehari-hari. Dengan mengisi kegiatan-kegiatan positif di hari tua, para lansia lebih merasakan bahwa hidupnya diberkati. Kehadiran orang lain juga sangat berpengaruh terhadap tingkat kebahagiaan para lansia. Praktik hidup yang baik, sikap lepas bebas dan kehadiran orang lain menjadi wujud nyata memaknai hidup sebagai persiapan menyongsong kematian yang baik

ANALISIS KONTEN TRIPLE DIALOGUE PADA AKUN INSTAGRAM @KATOLIK_GARIS_LUCU

Social media is a means for people to connect with each other quickly across borders. Today, social media has become an important necessity, one of which is to communicate. The need to communicate on social media is facilitated by various digital platforms, especially Instagram. In this study, researchers will focus on the Instagram account @katolik_garis_lucu. The @katolik_garis_lucu Instagram account is one of the accounts that is in demand not only by Catholic users, but from diverse users. With the distinctive style of @katolik_garis_lucucu Instagram account uploads, namely humor, the account provides a color about the plurality that exists in Indonesia. The purpose of this study is to analyze the content in the @katolik_garis_lucu Instagram account using the Asian Triple Dialogue theory. This study limits content analysis to the @katolik_garis_lucu Instagram account for the period April 23-September 20, 2023. In this study, the Asian Triple Dialogue includes three things, namely religion, culture, and poverty.

First-order multi-k phase transitions and magnetoelectric effects in multiferroic Co3TeO6

A theoretical description of the sequence of magnetic phases in Co3TeO6 is presented. The strongly first-order character of the transition to the commensurate multiferroic ground state, induced by coupled order parameters corresponding to different wavevectors, is related to a large magnetoelastic effect with an exchange energy critically sensitive to the interatomic spacing. The monoclinic magnetic symmetry C2' of the multiferroic phase permits spontaneous polarization and magnetization as well as the linear magnetoelectric effect. The existence of weakly ferromagnetic domains is verified experimentally by second harmonic generation measurements

Nationwide Study to Predict Colonic Ischemia after Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair in The Netherlands

BACKGROUND: Colonic ischemia remains a severe complication after abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair and is associated with a high mortality. With open repair being one of the main risk factors of colonic ischemia, deciding between endovascular or open aneurysm repair should be based on tailor-made medicine. This study aims to identify high-risk patients of colonic ischemia, a risk that can be taken into account while deciding on AAA treatment strategy.METHODS: A nationwide population-based cohort study of 9,433 patients who underwent an AAA operation between 2014 and 2016 was conducted. Potential risk factors were determined by reviewing prior studies and univariate analysis. With logistic regression analysis, independent predictors of intestinal ischemia were established. These variables were used to form a prediction model.RESULTS: Intestinal ischemia occurred in 267 patients (2.8%). Occurrence of intestinal ischemia was seen significantly more in open repair versus endovascular aneurysm repair (7.6% vs. 0.9%; P &lt; 0.001). This difference remained significant after stratification by urgency of the procedure, in both intact open (4.2% vs. 0.4%; P &lt; 0.001) and ruptured open repair (15.0% vs. 6.2%); P &lt; 0.001). Rupture of the AAA was the most important predictor of developing intestinal ischemia (odds ratio [OR], 5.9, 95% confidence interval [CI] 4.4-8.0), followed by having a suprarenal AAA (OR 3.4; CI 1.1-10.6). Associated procedural factors were open repair (OR 2.8; 95% CI 1.9-4.2), blood loss &gt;1L (OR 3.6; 95% CI 1.7-7.5), and prolonged operating time (OR 2.0; 95% CI 1.4-2.8). Patient characteristics included having peripheral arterial disease (OR 2.4; 95% CI 1.3-4.4), female gender (OR 1.7; 95% CI 1.2-2.4), renal insufficiency (OR 1.7; 1.3-2.2), and pulmonary history (OR 1.6; 95% CI 1.2-2.2). Age &lt;68 years proved to be a protective factor (OR 0.5; 95% CI 0.4-0.8). Associated mortality was higher in patients with intestinal ischemia versus patients without (50.6% vs. 5.1%, P &lt; 0.001). Each predictor was given a score between 1 and 4. Patients with a score of ≥10 proved to be at high risk. A prediction model with an excellent AUC = 0.873 (95% CI 0.855-0.892) could be formed.CONCLUSIONS: One of the main risk factors is open repair. Several other risk factors can contribute to developing colonic ischemia after AAA repair. The proposed prediction model can be used to identify patients at high risk for developing colonic ischemia. With the current trend in AAA repair leaning toward open repair for better long-term results, our prediction model allows a better informed decision can be made in AAA treatment strategy.</p

On the Importance of the Flare's Late Phase for the Solar Extreme Ultraviolet Irradiance

The new solar extreme ultraviolet (EUV) irradiance observations from NASA Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) have revealed a new class of solar flares that are referred to as late phase flares. These flares are characterized by the hot 2-5 MK coronal emissions (e.g., Fe XVI 33.5 nm) showing large secondary peaks that appear many minutes to hours after an eruptive flare event. In contrast, the cool 0.7-1.5 MK coronal emissions (e.g., Fe IX 17.1 nm) usually dim immediately after the flare onset and do not recover until after the delayed second peak of the hot coronal emissions. We refer to this period of 1-5 hours after the fl amrea sin phase as the late phase, and this late phase is uniquely different than long duration flares associated with 2-ribbon flares or large filament eruptions. Our analysis of the late phase flare events indicates that the late phase involves hot coronal loops near the flaring region, not directly related to the original flaring loop system but rather with the higher post-eruption fields. Another finding is that space weather applications concerning Earth s ionosphere and thermosphere need to consider these late phase flares because they can enhance the total EUV irradiance flare variation by a factor of 2 when the late phase contribution is included

PUMPSCHWINGUNGEN IN EINER LUFTTECHNISCHEN ANLAGE: VERGLEICH ZWEIER RECHENMODELLE ANHAND EXPERIMENTELLER ERGEBNISSE

Air-flow installations composed of fluid machine, pipes, air-vessels and throttles are disposed towards press ure and mass-flow fluctuations at small mass flow rates. Computational models of lumped and distributed parameters both are suitable to the description of such dynamical behaviour as it has been proved by comparising with experimental results. The dynamical treatment of the fluid machine is of great importance within both models
