Berdasarkan kriteria keberhasilan tindakan penelitian ini, dapat disimpulkan bahwa melalui pembelajaran yang menggunakan metode role playing, aktivitas danhasil belajar siswa kelas III SD Inpres Marantaledalam pembelajaran PKn dapat ditingkatkan

    Glargine as a Basal Insulin Supplement in Recovering Critically Ill Patients - An In Silico Study

    Tight glycaemic control is now benefiting medical and surgical intensive care patients by reducing complications associated with hyperglycaemia. Once patients leave this intensive care environment, less acute wards do not continue to provide the same level of glycaemic control. Main reason is that these less acute wards do not have the high levels of nursing resources to provide the same level of glycaemic control. Therefore developments in protocols that are less labour intensive are necessary. This study examines the use of insulin glargine for basal supplement in recovering critically ill patients. These patients represent a group who may benefit from such basal support therapy. In silico study results showed the potential in reducing nursing effort with the use of glargine. However, a protocol using only glargine for glucose control did not show to be effective in the simulated patients. This may be an indication that a protocol using only glargine is more suitable after discharge from critical care

    Modeled Insulin Sensitivity and Interstitial Insulin Action from a Pilot Study of Dynamic Insulin Sensitivity Tests

    An accurate test for insulin resistance can delay or prevent the development of Type 2 diabetes and its complications. The current gold standard test, CLAMP, is too labor intensive to be used in general practice. A recently developed dynamic insulin sensitivity test, DIST, uses a glucose-insulin-C-peptide model to calculate model-based insulin sensitivity, SI. Preliminary results show good correlation to CLAMP. However both CLAMP and DIST ignore saturation in insulin-mediated glucose removal. This study uses the data from 17 patients who underwent multiple DISTs to investigate interstitial insulin action and its influence on modeled insulin sensitivity. The critical parameters influencing interstitial insulin action are saturation in insulin receptor binding, αG, and plasma-interstitial difiusion rate, nI . Very low values of αG and very low values of nI produced the most intra-patient variability in SI. Repeatability in SI is enhanced with modeled insulin receptor saturation. Future parameter study on subjects with varying degree of insulin resistance may provide a better understanding of different contributing factors of insulin resistance

    Endogenous insulin secretion and suppression during and after sepsis in critically ill patients: implications for tight glycemic control protocols

    Introduction: Insulin infusions over 2 U/hr can suppress endogenous insulin secretion in healthy subjects 30-45% [1]. Virtually all tight glycaemic control (TGC) protocols deliver insulin via infusion. This study examines the impact of bolus delivery of insulin in TGC on the endogenous insulin secretion of critically ill patients. Methods: 18 patients from the Christchurch Hospital ICU enrolled in a prospective clinical trial studying sepsis each had two sets of blood samples assayed for insulin and C-peptide. The first set was taken at the commencement of the SPRINT TGC protocol for patients with suspected sepsis. The second set was taken when their SIRS score was consistently below 2. Each set had 4 samples taken at: -1, 10, 40 and 60 min following bolus delivery of insulin as required by SPRINT to capture endogenous insulin secretion during the bolus profile. Bolus size was dictated by the protocol, but was in the range 2-6 units. Model-based methods [2] were used to calculate the endogenous insulin secretion rate for each set of samples. The level of suppression was calculated as the ratio of the secretion rate between 5-15 mins (just after peak plasma insulin) and average of the 0-5 min (basal) and 15-60 min (return to basal) secretion rates identified

    Synthesizing Coupled 3D Face Modalities by Trunk-Branch Generative Adversarial Networks

    Generating realistic 3D faces is of high importance for computer graphics and computer vision applications. Generally, research on 3D face generation revolves around linear statistical models of the facial surface. Nevertheless, these models cannot represent faithfully either the facial texture or the normals of the face, which are very crucial for photo-realistic face synthesis. Recently, it was demonstrated that Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) can be used for generating high-quality textures of faces. Nevertheless, the generation process either omits the geometry and normals, or independent processes are used to produce 3D shape information. In this paper, we present the first methodology that generates high-quality texture, shape, and normals jointly, which can be used for photo-realistic synthesis. To do so, we propose a novel GAN that can generate data from different modalities while exploiting their correlations. Furthermore, we demonstrate how we can condition the generation on the expression and create faces with various facial expressions. The qualitative results shown in this paper are compressed due to size limitations, full-resolution results and the accompanying video can be found in the supplementary documents.

To quantify the performance and robustness of the protocol to errors, namely physiological variability and sensor errors, an in-silico Monte Carlo analysis is performed. Actual patient data from Christchurch Hospital, New Zealand were used as virtual trial patients
