Introduction: Good intensity of light dramatically affects the eyes. If there is less intensity of light. the eye muscles contract as much as possible to see objects or vice versa. If this happens continuously, it will cause damage to the eyes. Based on the preliminary study, it was found that as the auto welder operators have the task to observe the results of the auto welder engine to determine the quality of the welder, this type of work needs accuracy so that the right lighting intensity is required. This study aimed to determine the association between the lighting level and subjective visual fatigue complaints on operators in the auto welder section. Methods: The research method used was quantitative, with a cross- sectional approach and observational method. The samples in this study were 18 respondents from the total sampling technique. The instrument used was the Visual Fatigue Index (VTI) questionnaire. Moreover, the analysis of the study results used the one sample T-test statistical test to determine the association between the dependent and independent variables. Results: The one sample T-test results showed p-value = 0.012 < α = 0.05. This result showed an association between the lighting leveland subjective visual fatigue complaints on operators in the auto welder section. Conclusion: In this research, it was found that the majority of lighting levels that did not meet the standards had an association with subjective complaints of visual fatigue on the operators in the auto welder section.Keywords: auto welder, lighting, visual fatigue

Approach to PLWHA by providing interpersonal counseling is the right thing to do to overcome psychological problems including social, emotional and spiritual aspects of PLWHA. This study aims to look at the effect of interpersonal counseling on social, emotional and spiritual responses in HIV/ AIDS patients. This research is a type of non-experimental research with a cross-sectional approach. The sample is post-test people and tested positive for HIV in the Kediri region, which is 32 with purpossive sampling technique. Data on social, emotional and spiritual responses were obtained based on the results of data recapitulation from the instrument in the form of a questionnaire. The results of the study with the non-parametric Wilcoxon test showed there were differences between social responses of HIV/AIDS patients before and after given interpersonal counseling with p value = 0,000, there were differences between the emotional responses of HIV/AIDS patients before being given interpersonal counseling and after being given counseling with p value = 0,000, and there is a difference between spiritual responses in HIV/AIDS patients before being given interpersonal counseling and after being given interpersonal counseling with p value = 0,000. It can be concluded that interpersonal counseling influences social, emotional and spiritual responses of HIV/AIDS patients.

Abstract Background Emergency care continues to be a challenge, since patients’ arrival is unscheduled and could occur at the same time which may fill the Emergency Department with non-urgent patients. Triaging is an integral part of every busy ED. The Canadian Triage and Acuity Scale (CTAS) is considered an accurate tool to be used outside Canada. This study aims to identify the chosen triage level and compare the variation between registered nurses, pediatric and adult emergency residents by using CTAS cases. Method This study was conducted at King Abdulaziz Medical City,Saudi Arabia. A cross-sectional self-administered questionnaire was used, and which contains 15 case scenarios with different triage levels. All cases were adopted from a Canadian triage course after receiving permission. Each case provides the patient’s symptoms, clinical signs and mode of arrival to the ED. The participants were instructed to assign a triage level using the following scale. A non-random sampling technique was used for this study. The rates of agreement between residents were calculated using kappa statistics (weighted-kappa) (95%CI). Result A total of 151 participants completed the study questionnaire which include 15 case scenarios. 73 were nurses and 78 were residents. The results showed 51.3, 56.6, and 59.9% mis-triaged the cases among the nurses, emergency residents, and pediatric residents respectively. Triage scores were compared using the Kruskal Wallis test and were statistically significant with a p value of 0.006. The mean ranks for nurses, emergency residents and pediatric residents were 86.41, 73.6 and 59.96, respectively. The Kruskal Wallis Post-Hoc test was performed to see which groups were statistically significant, and it was found that there was a significant difference between nurses and pediatrics residents (P value = 0.005). Moreover, there were no significant differences found between nurses and ER residents (P value> 0.05). Conclusion The triaging system was found to be a very important tool to prioritize patients based on their complaints. The results showed that nurses had the greatest experience in implementing patients on the right triage level. On the other hand, ER and pediatric residents need to develop more knowledge about CTAS and become exposed more to the triaging system during their training.

A mean score was compared among the nurses, pediatric residents and emergency residents. Since our data were not normally distributed, we used the Kruskal-Wallis test to observe statistical differences between the groups. The Kruskal Wallis Post-Hoc test was performed to see which groups were statistically significant, and it was found that there was a significant difference between nurses and pediatrics residents (P value < 0.001).

Increased levels of uric acid will occur in women after menopause due to a decrease in estrogen hormones that play an important role in increasing urinary acid excretion through urine. The occurrence of deposition of uric acid continuously in the body so that the kidneys are not able to remove uric acid properly. This study aims to determine differences in uric acid levels in perimenopausal women and menopause at Sukamerindu Health Center Bengkulu City. This study includes comparative study, with cross sectional study design. The sampling technique was purposive sampling as much as 74 respondents, with 37 respondents perimenopause women and 37 respondents of menopause women. Data analysis used univariate and bivariate analysis using independent t test. The mean rate of uric acid levels in perimenopausal women was 5.02 mg / dL while mean menopausal uric acid level was 7.04 mg / dL and after statistical test using independent t test, p value 0.0001, which means p <0, 05 then there are differences in uric acid levels in perimenopausal women and menopause at puskesmas sukamerindu city of Bengkulu. The average uric acid levels in menopausal women is higher compared with perimenopausal women so it is expected for menopausal women to maintain health and consume lots of mineral water so that uric acid does not accumulate in the body.
