Evidence shows that erythema toxicum neonatorum (ETN) has been described in the literature since the 15th decade as a primarily rash in pediatric patients. Clinical studies show that the lesion of ETN is mainly characterized by the presence of minute yellowish papules and pustules that are usually surrounded by an irregular reddish wheal. It should be noted that evidence also demonstrated the pathology of these lesions is temporary and usually disappears within a few hours. In the present literature review, we discussed the etiology, prevalence, risk factors, and clinical signs of ETN based on findings from relevant research. The etiology of ETN is not clear among the different studies. However, some studies show involvement of immune and potential allergic reactions. The prevalence of the condition among infants is also remarkably variable among the relevant studies worldwide. There is also inconsistency in reporting the significance of the risk factors related to the prevalence and severity of the condition. On the other hand, the clinical signs among studies seem to be consistent and easily detected except when evaluating dark-skinned infants. Further studies are needed better to understand the etiology and epidemiology of the condition.

Woman's Body

The aims of this paper is to explain the use of high heels as an agency for a woman's body. Agency context refers to pain in the body but pain is perceived as something positive. In this paper, the method used is a literature review by reviewing writings related to the use of high heels. The findings in this paper that women experience body image disturbance or anxiety because they feel themselves are not beautiful or not attractive. The use of high heels, makes women more attractive and more confident, on the other hand the use of high heels actually makes women feel pain and discomfort. However, for the achievement of beauty standards, women voluntarily allow their bodies to experience pain. However, the agency's willingness to beauty standards here is meaningless without filtering and directly accepted. Instead women keep negotiating with themselves so as to make a decision why use high heels.

General Expense

Zakat is one of principal worship requiring every individual (<em>mukallaf</em>) with considerable property to spend some of the wealth for zakat under several conditions applied within. On the other hand, tax is an obligation assigned to taxpayers and should be deposited into the state based on policies applied, with no direct return as reward, for financing the national general expense. In their development, both zakat and tax had quite attention from Islamic economic thought. Nevertheless, we, at first, wanted to identify the principles of zakat and tax at the time of Rasulullah SAW. Therefore, this study referred to normative research. The primary data was collected through library/document research and the secondary one was collected through literature review by inventorying and collecting textbooks and other documents related to the studied issue.

Common Barriers

Sustainable urban stormwater management (SUSM) is essential to urban sustainability. However, barriers to adopting it are observed even in places where SUSM is more widespread. Recent studies have evaluated strategies for overcoming some types of barriers. However, any study has systematically analyzed the strategies available for overcoming the most common barriers, contributing to widely adopting SUSM. Thus, this article aimed to provide a literature review on these strategies. Sixty-six documents were evaluated, resulting in eight solution strategies, detailed by 81 implementation measures, which were critically analyzed. The interrelationships among the solution strategies and their applicability to overcome the SUSM-related barriers were evaluated. This analysis showed that the solution strategies are interdependent, so it would be inefficient to adopt the strategies in isolation. On the other hand, adopting a strategy can help overcome several barriers, also enhancing other strategies, and consequently contributing to the global scenario of effective SUSM adoption. The availability of this systematized information helps break through common barriers and optimizing efforts to adopt SUSM where it is incipient.

Pancasila is taken from the noble values that exist and are well-grown in the life of Indonesian society. It shows that the position of Pancasila itself is the source of all sources of law. This research aims to find out the effect of Pancasila values on the attitudes of the younger generations attitude in this era. Whether the changing period can cause the understanding of Pancasila values has changed during the current development, and it affecting the millennial lifestyle and attitude. This study uses a literature review method by collecting and analyzing articles related to the effect of understanding the values of Pancasila on the millennial generation. The article criteria that will be used are articles published in the year 2019-2021. Based on the article that has been collected, it is found that a person’s understanding of the values of Pancasila dramatically affects the way a person behaves. The more a person understands the values contained in Pancasila, the attitudes and lifestyle shown reflect the good Indonesian culture as taught by ancestors and religion. On the other hand, if the understanding is lacking, someone will tend to be more open to habits from foreign cultures that do not match our ancestors’ teachings.

The Impact

AbstractNudging is considered a promising approach for behavioural change. At the same time, nudging has raised ethical concerns, specifically in relation to the impact of nudges on autonomous choice. A complexity is that in this debate authors may appeal to different understandings or dimensions of autonomy. Clarifying the different conceptualisations of autonomy in ethical debates around nudging would help to advance our understanding of the ethics of nudging. A literature review of these considerations was conducted in order to identify and differentiate between the conceptualisations of autonomy. In 33 articles on the ethics of nudging, we identified 280 autonomy considerations, which we labelled with 790 unique autonomy codes and grouped under 61 unique super-codes. Finally, we formulated three general conceptualisations of autonomy. Freedom of choice refers to the availability of options and the environment in which individuals have to make choices. Agency involves an individual's capacity to deliberate and determine what to choose. Self-constitution relates to someone's identity and self-chosen goals. In the debate about the ethics of nudging, authors refer to different senses of autonomy. Clarifying these conceptualisations contributes to a better understanding of how nudges can undermine or, on the other hand, strengthen autonomy.

Background: Augmented metabolic activity of macrophages leads to enough F-18 Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake to allow visualization by positron emission tomography (PET). A large body of data, based on computed tomography (CT), has also accumulated concerning the relevance of vascular calcification to the atherosclerotic process. FDG PET/CT can localize both inflammatory changes and vascular calcification. The purpose of this study was to investigate risk factors contributing to these changes in the aorta in healthy subjects. Materials and Methods: A total of 66 consecutive healthy subjects (44 men, 22 women; age range, 30–82 years, mean age, 55.8 years) participating in a health check protocol including FDG PET/CT were evaluated retrospectively. We placed regions of interest on the arterial wall to measure FDG uptake by PET images. To assess arterial calcification, the calcium score of the aorta was measured on CT images. Results: FDG uptake was observed most commonly in proximal, followed by descending, thoracic, and abdominal segments. On the other hand, the most common site of vascular calcification was the descending thoracic aorta, followed by abdominal and, proximal segment. Whole aortic calcification (total calcium score of the whole aorta) was significantly correlated with age (r= 0.353, P= 0.004). On the other hand, FDG uptake (total SUV max of the whole aorta) was significantly correlated with systolic blood pressure (SBP) (r= 0.303, P= 0.013), triglyceride (TG) (r= 0.281, P= 0.022), fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (r= 0.317, P= 0.010), HbA1c (r= 0.433, P< 0.001), visceral abdominal fat area (r= 0.319, P= 0.005), and was negatively correlated with high density lipoprotein (HDL) (r= −0.317, P= 0.010), and adiponectin (r= −0.273, P= 0.029). Conclusions: Aortic calcification was significantly correlated with age. On the other hand, FDG uptake was significantly correlated with the components of metabolic syndrome such as SBP, TG, FPG, HbA1c, visceral adipose fat area and negatively correlated with HDL and adiponectin, but not with age. Our results may suggest that the components of metabolic syndrome and aging affect the progression of atherosclerosis differently.

Number Of Publications

The significant number of publications describing unsuccessful cases in the introduction of health information systems makes it advisable to analyze the factors that may be contributing to such failures. However, the very notion of success is not equally assumed in all publications. Based in a literature review, the authors argue that the introduction of systems must be based in an eclectic combination of knowledge fields, adopting methodologies that strengthen the role of organizational culture and human resources in this project, as a whole. On the other hand, the authors argue that the introduction of systems should be oriented by a previously defined matrix of factors, against which the success can be measured.

Based on the literature review, the three patterns (fillers, repairs and repetitions) in the conversations of the native English speakers are generally regarded as results of the normal speaking between people. On the other hand, the same patterns in the conversations of the L2 speakers are always seen as a marker of disfluency and linguistic disabilities of the nonnative speakers. Therefore, this study simply focuses on finding how the three disfluency patterns are used by the Saudi English speakers from different levels of fluency. The sampling of the study includes two groups of participants from different fluency levels. Through the transcriptions and the discourse analysis of one hour recoding of the two groups, the results showed that the three patterns (fillers, repairs and repetitions) should not be generally associated with disfluency. Instead, repetitions and self-repairs have been equally used by the two groups and such patterns can be used as a conversational device. However, the filler “uh” with longer pausing can clearly predict disfluency among the Saudi English speakers.

AbstractLightweight potential is a powerful indicator – but not as powerful as it could be. Current methods for analyzing a product's potential to be reduced in mass only deal with a few of the most important criteria for lightweight design. The amount of literature dealing with lightweight design is significant, yet it can help to understand these versatile criteria. Firstly, the literature on this topic will therefore be reviewed to derive a broad set of criteria used in contemporary lightweight design. Secondly, a further review will reveal the criteria used to derive lightweight potential. Subsequently, both sets will be compared to identify the missing criteria used for the derivation of lightweight potential. This will support designers in two ways. On the one hand, matching and combining both criteria sets will enable the most representative criteria for a particular design case to be chosen, thus leading to a more comprehensible derivation of lightweight potential. On the other hand, the combination set will provide a basis for designers and design teams to refine their understanding of their own motivations for conducting lightweight design.
