    Institutional delivery has an impact on the decline in maternal mortality rate. In Indonesia, institutional delivery increases every year, but there are still 30%-37% mothers who deliver at home. Unfortunately, the increase is not in line with maternal mortality reduction, so that Indonesia does not achieve the fifth MDGs goal. To achieve Universal Health Coverage, Indonesia implements National Health Insurance (NHI). NHI integrates four types of health insurance, namely Askes/ASABRI, Jamsostek, Jamkesmas and Jamkesda. One of its benefits is maternal health services. Health insurance can address financial barriers on delivery in health facility. By using secondary data of National Basic Health Research 2013 and Village Potential 2011 data, this study aimed to analyze effect of health insurance on institutional delivery in Indonesia. Samples were 39,942 women aged 15-49 years old who gave birth to their last child during 2010-2013. The study used econometric approach by applying probit and bivariate probit as estimation model to estimate the effect with consideration to endogeneity issue of health insurance. The results found that health insurance was likely to increase institutional delivery by 39.52%. In conclusion, women who have health insurance prefer to deliver birth at health facility compared to those who do not have health insurance

    First in man in-situ augmented reality pedicle screw navigation

    Full text link
    Background Augmented reality (AR) is a rising technology gaining increasing utility in medicine. By superimposing the surgical site and the operator's visual field with computer-generated information, it has the potential to enhance the cognitive skills of surgeons. This is the report of the first in man case with "direct holographic navigation" as part of a randomized controlled trial. Case description A pointing instrument was equipped with a sterile fiducial marker, which was used to obtain a digital representation of the intraoperative bony anatomy of the lumbar spine. Subsequently, a previously validated registration method was applied to superimpose the surgery plan with the intraoperative anatomy. The registration result is shown in situ as a 3D AR hologram of the preoperative 3D vertebra model with the planned screw trajectory and entry point for validation and approval by the surgeon. After achieving alignment with the surgery plan, a borehole is drilled and the pedicle screw placed. Postoperativ computer tomography was used to measure accuracy of this novel method for surgical navigation. Outcome Correct screw positions entirely within bone were documented with a postoperative CT, with an accuracy similar to current standard of care methods for surgical navigation. The patient was mobilized uneventfully on the first postoperative day with little pain medication and dismissed on the fourth postoperative day. Conclusion This first in man report of direct AR navigation demonstrates feasibility in vivo. The continuation of this randomized controlled study will evaluate the value of this novel technology

    In online discussion activities, there are knowledge-sharing activities in which the factors are trust, equality, intrinsic motivation, and the use of technology. This type of research is descriptive quantitative. Here the researcher wants to explain the factors that influence knowledge-sharing activities among elementary teacher education students in online discussions. The sample of this study was 221 elementary teacher education students in Sumatra, Java, Kalimantan, and Sulawesi. Data analysis technique applied Multiple Linear Regression analysis techniques by using SPSS software version 21.0 with a significance level of 0.05. The results of this study indicated that similarity and technology use are factors that greatly influence knowledge-sharing activities, while trust and intrinsic motivation factors are factors that do not significantly affect knowledge-sharing activities. Equality factors such as age, background, and gender provide a major role in the success of knowledge-sharing activities. In order to support knowledge-sharing activities among elementary teacher education students to be effective and efficient, it is necessary to use technology with supportive frequency use

    A systematic analysis of preprints in Trauma & Orthopaedic surgery

    Full text link
    AIMS Preprint servers allow authors to publish full-text manuscripts or interim findings prior to undergoing peer review. Several preprint servers have extended their services to biological sciences, clinical research, and medicine. The purpose of this study was to systematically identify and analyze all articles related to Trauma & Orthopaedic (T&O) surgery published in five medical preprint servers, and to investigate the factors that influence the subsequent rate of publication in a peer-reviewed journal. METHODS All preprints covering T&O surgery were systematically searched in five medical preprint servers (medRxiv, OSF Preprints, Preprints.org, PeerJ, and Research Square) and subsequently identified after a minimum of 12 months by searching for the title, keywords, and corresponding author in Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Cochrane, and the Web of Science. Subsequent publication of a work was defined as publication in a peer-reviewed indexed journal. The rate of publication and time to peer-reviewed publication were assessed. Differences in definitive publication rates of preprints according to geographical origin and level of evidence were analyzed. RESULTS The number of preprints increased from 2014 to 2020 (p < 0.001). A total of 38.6% of the identified preprints (n = 331) were published in a peer-reviewed indexed journal after a mean time of 8.7 months (SD 5.4 (1 to 27)). The highest proportion of missing subsequent publications was in the preprints originating from Africa, Asia/Middle East, and South America, or in those that covered clinical research with a lower level of evidence (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Preprints are being published in increasing numbers in T&O surgery. Depending on the geographical origin and level of evidence, almost two-thirds of preprints are not subsequently published in a peer-reviewed indexed journal after one year. This raises major concerns regarding the dissemination and persistence of potentially wrong scientific work that bypasses peer review, and the orthopaedic community should discuss appropriate preventive measures.Cite this article: Bone Jt Open 2022;3(7):582-588

    Modes of Overinitiation, dnaA Gene Expression, and Inhibition of Cell Division in a Novel Cold-Sensitive hda Mutant of Escherichia coli

    The chromosomal replication cycle is strictly coordinated with cell cycle progression in Escherichia coli. ATP-DnaA initiates replication, leading to loading of the DNA polymerase III holoenzyme. The DNA-loaded form of the {beta} clamp subunit of the polymerase binds the Hda protein, which promotes ATP-DnaA hydrolysis, yielding inactive ADP-DnaA. This regulation is required to repress overinitiation. In this study, we have isolated a novel cold-sensitive hda mutant, the hda-185 mutant. The hda-185 mutant caused overinitiation of chromosomal replication at 25{degrees}C, which most likely led to blockage of replication fork progress. Consistently, the inhibition of colony formation at 25{degrees}C was suppressed by disruption of the diaA gene, an initiation stimulator. Disruption of the seqA gene, an initiation inhibitor, showed synthetic lethality with hda-185 even at 42{degrees}C. The cellular ATP-DnaA level was increased in an hda-185-dependent manner. The cellular concentrations of DnaA protein and dnaA mRNA were comparable at 25{degrees}C to those in a wild-type hda strain. We also found that multiple copies of the ribonucleotide reductase genes (nrdAB or nrdEF) or dnaB gene repressed overinitiation. The cellular levels of dATP and dCTP were elevated in cells bearing multiple copies of nrdAB. The catalytic site within NrdA was required for multicopy suppression, suggesting the importance of an active form of NrdA or elevated levels of deoxyribonucleotides in inhibition of overinitiation in the hda-185 cells. Cell division in the hda-185 mutant was inhibited at 25{degrees}C in a LexA regulon-independent manner, suggesting that overinitiation in the hda-185 mutant induced a unique division inhibition pathway

    BACKGROUND CONTEXT Due to recent developments in augmented reality with head-mounted devices, holograms of a surgical plan can be displayed directly in the surgeon's field of view. To the best of our knowledge, three dimensional (3D) intraoperative fluoroscopy has not been explored for the use with holographic navigation by head-mounted devices in spine surgery. PURPOSE To evaluate the surgical accuracy of holographic pedicle screw navigation by head-mounted device using 3D intraoperative fluoroscopy. STUDY DESIGN In this experimental cadaver study, the accuracy of surgical navigation using a head-mounted device was compared with navigation with a state-of-the-art pose-tracking system. METHODS Three lumbar cadaver spines were embedded in nontransparent agar gel, leaving only commonly visible anatomy in sight. Intraoperative registration of preoperative planning was achieved by 3D fluoroscopy and fiducial markers attached to lumbar vertebrae. Trackable custom-made drill sleeve guides enabled real-time navigation. In total, 20 K-wires were navigated into lumbar pedicles using AR-navigation, 10 K-wires by the state-of-the-art pose-tracking system. 3D models obtained from postexperimental CT scans were used to measure surgical accuracy. MF is the founder and shareholder of Incremed AG, a Balgrist University Hospital start-up focusing on the development of innovative techniques for surgical executions. The other authors declare no conflict of interest concerning the contents of this study. No external funding was received for this study. RESULTS No significant difference in accuracy was measured between AR-navigated drillings and the gold standard with pose-tracking system with mean translational errors between entry points (3D vector distance; p=.85) of 3.4±1.6 mm compared with 3.2±2.0 mm, and mean angular errors between trajectories (3D angle; p=.30) of 4.3°±2.3° compared with 3.5°±1.4°. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, holographic navigation by use of a head-mounted device achieve accuracy comparable to the gold standard of high-end pose-tracking systems. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE These promising results could result in a new way of surgical navigation with minimal infrastructural requirements but now have to be confirmed in clinical studies

    Operator independent reliability of direct augmented reality navigated pedicle screw placement and rod bending

    Full text link
    Background AR based navigation of spine surgeries may not only provide accurate surgical execution but also operator independency by compensating for potential skill deficits. “Direct” AR-navigation, namely superposing trajectories on anatomy directly, have not been investigated regarding their accuracy and operator's dependence. Purpose of this study was to prove operator independent reliability and accuracy of both AR assisted pedicle screw navigation and AR assisted rod bending in a cadaver setting. Methods Two experienced spine surgeons and two biomedical engineers (laymen) performed independently from each other pedicle screw instrumentations from L1-L5 in a total of eight lumbar cadaver specimens (20 screws/operator) using a fluoroscopy-free AR based navigation method. Screw fitting rods from L1 to S2-Ala-Ileum were bent bilaterally using an AR based rod bending navigation method (4 rods/operator). Outcome measures were pedicle perforations, accuracy compared to preoperative plan, registration time, navigation time, total rod bending time and operator's satisfaction for these procedures. Results 97.5% of all screws were safely placed (<2 mm perforation), overall mean deviation from planned trajectory was 6.8±3.9°, deviation from planned entry point was 4±2.7 mm, registration time per vertebra was 2:25 min (00:56 to 10:00 min), navigation time per screw was 1:07 min (00:15 to 12:43 min) rod bending time per rod was 4:22 min (02:07 to 10:39 min), operator's satisfaction with AR based screw and rod navigation was 5.38±0.67 (1 to 6, 6 being the best rate). Comparison of surgeons and laymen revealed significant difference in navigation time (1:01 min; 00:15 to 3:00 min vs. 01:37 min; 00:23 to 12:43 min; p = 0.004, respectively) but not in pedicle perforation rate. Conclusions Direct AR based screw and rod navigation using a surface digitization registration technique is reliable and independent of surgical experience. The accuracy of pedicle screw insertion in the lumbar spine is comparable with the current standard techniques
