Background: Prostate cancer is one of the most common and leading cause of death among different genitourinary causes. However, screening of prostate cancer is limited to Digital Rectal Examination (DRE) and Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) in Nepal. The aim of this study is to find out which modality is more helpful for the diagnosis of Prostate Cancer. Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted in the department of Urology, College of Medical Sciences, Chitwan, Nepal. All patients included in this study were who presented to the OPD with Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS). The patients were above the age of 40 with clinical suspicion prostate cancer based on either DRE or PSA.   Results: A total of 150 patients were enrolled from April 2019 to April 2020. Their mean± SD age was of 65.18±9.38 years. The accuracy of the diagnostic test for DRE and PSA were cut off at 4, PSA cut off range of 4 to 10, PSA cut off range of 10 to 30 and PSA cut off at 30 showed that all the screening indices were better for DRE (Sensitivity=100%, Specificity=59.2%, Diagnostic Accuracy=62.2%) than for PSA cut off at 4 (Sensitivity=100%, Specificity=27.6%, Diagnostic Accuracy=32.9%). Among various cut off score or ranges for PSA, cut off score at 30 provided the best screening indices with Sensitivity of 66.7%, Specificity of 97.4% and Diagnostic Accuracy of 95.1%. Conclusions: PSA has higher diagnostic accuracy then DRE. Keywords: DRE; LUTS; Prostate cancer; PSA.

Contact endoscopy is a technique of obtaining detailed magnified images of living epithelium, using a modified glass rod lens endoscope placed on the surface of the tissue. The technique has been extensively described in gynaecological, and more recently, laryngeal and nasal tissues. However, no quantitative studies of its diagnostic accuracy yet exist. A prospective partially blinded controlled study of eight cases with a variety of laryngeal pathologies is described. A single pathologist with no knowledge of the ultimate histological diagnoses successfully identified six of eight laryngeal pathologies on contact endoscopic findings, while the other two cases were identified to a degree of accuracy that was sufficient to positively identify the need for standard tissue biopsy. The advantages and disadvantages of the technique are described, along with suggestions for its role in clinical practice.

The Relationship

From measurements of fruit lengths, fruit weights, and lengths of fruiting umbels of trees from the species Eucalyptus elaeophora and E. goniocalyx and their presumed hybrid swarm, a formula is calculated for taxonomic classification using statistical discriminant theory. The rates of misclassification expected with the use of this formula are estimated. A simple geometrical model of the relationship of the species and the hybrid is investigated.

RELATIONSHIP OF THE ABILITY TO  CARE OF YOURSELF AND HIS BABIES TO THIRD TRIMESTER PRIMIGRAVIDA ABSTRACTThe process of pregnancy is part of the cycle of human development. The physical, emotional, and social changes experienced by the mother during pregnancy will affect the mother's psychological well-being, the presence of the first child for primigravida mothers is a crisis in his life. The feeling of being able or unable to carry out the effect has an impact on his psychological changes, one of which is anxiety. This study is a quantitative study with a cross sectional approach. The analysis was conducted on 24 mothers in the third trimester primigravida at the health center Demak. The results showed that there was a relationship between the level of ability of primigravida mothers to care for themselves and their babies with primigravida maternal anxiety levels..

Mastery of important information technology carried out by the taxpayer. Good technological mastery by the taxpayer will bring big benefits that are felt especially related to the time side. This study aims to analyze how much influence perceptions of usefulness, perceptions of ease to use, and mastery of information technology perceived by the taxpayer sourced by the Technology Acceptance Model developed by Davis 1993. This study is a quantitative study conducted by survey on respondents. Population in this research is all individual taxpayer in Semarang city. The number of respondents used as much as 120 respondents with sampling technique probability sampling. The result of the research shows the perception of usefulness, perception of ease to use and mastery of information technology partially affect the interest of the taxpayer to use e-filing. While the mastery of information technology can not moderate the relationship of perception of usefulness and perception of ease to use partially to the interest of using e-filing.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara sifat fisik tanah terhadap nilai permeabilitas tanah pada permukiman di Kecamatan Koto Tangah. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kuantitatif dengan pendekatan secara korelasioanal. Data yang digunakan berupa data primer yang didapatkan di lapangan serta di laboratorium dan data sekunder dedapatkan pada literatur atau arsip pemerintahan kemudian diolalah menggunakan QGIS. Data primer tersebut berupa kadar air tanah, berat jenis tanah, berat isi tanah, dan permeabilitas tanah, sedangkan data sekunder berupa denah lokasi penelitian. Didapatkan nilai signifikansi hubungan kadar air tanah dengan permeabilitas tanah sebesar 0,004 dan di peroleh R²sebesar 0,662 serta arah hubungan negatif, nilai signifikansi hubungan berat isi tanah dengan permeabilitas tanah sebesar 0,023 dan di peroleh R² sebesar 0,498 serta arah hubungannya negatif, sedangkan nilai signifikansi hubungan berat jenis tanah dengan permeabilitas sebesar 0,239. Sehingga dapat disimpulkan hubungan sifat fisik tanah dengan permeabilitas tanah mempunyai hubungan yang signifikan (berarti).This study aims to determine the relationship between the physical properties of the soil to the value of soil permeability in settlements in Koto Tangah District. This research is a quantitative study with a correlation approach. The data used are primary data obtained in the field as well as in the laboratory and secondary data obtained in literature or government archives which are then processed using QGIS. The primary data is in the form of soil water content, soil density, soil density, and soil permeability, while secondary data is in the form of a plan of the research location. The significance value of the relationship between groundwater content and soil permeability was 0.004 and obtained R² of 0.662 and the direction of the negative relationship, the significance value of the relationship between soil weight and soil permeability was 0.023 and obtained R² of 0.498 and the direction of the relationship was negative, while the significance value of the relationship of density soil with a permeability of 0.239. So it can be concluded that the relationship between the physical properties of the soil and the permeability of the soil have a significant relationship (meaning).
