Teaching reading not only reads the literature but also comprehends the text, including in teaching ESP reading. Several issues in teaching ESP reading comprehension can be barrier for the success of the teaching and learning process which needs to integrate technology such as smartphone that come up as media to make teaching strategy run well. Online Students Response Systems platform via smartphone can be one of alternatives for teaching reading. This study was aimed to know the effect of Students Response Systems using (Kahoot! and Socrative) toward English for Management students reading comprehension. D1 Equivalent English program students was engaged, 37 (7 males and 30 females) from Management students of A-class as treatment group while control group from B class consisted of 38 students (6 males and 32 females). Quantitative quasi experimental and descriptive quantitative survey as the designs of this study. Pre and posttest as the first instrument analyzed by using T-test while Likert-scale questionnaire as the second instrument analyzed to find the frequencies and percentages. The result shows that the increasing correlation between pre-test and post-test in treatment group is 64,1%, while the increasing correlation between pretest and post-test in control group is 30,8%. The post-test scores of both two groups in Independent T-test showed significant difference improvement with the score of Sig. is 0,670 > 0,05 and the score in “equal variances assumed” showed that significance 2 tail (t-tailed) is 0.000 < 0.05. From that result, teaching using SRS (Kahoot! and Socrative) is effective for enhancing Management learners’ reading comprehension. The students’ perspectives related to the SRS (Kahoot! and Socrative) usage is dominated by positive perceptions’ statement of agree and strongly agree.

Rosella (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) is an ornamental plant flower petals were thick belonging to the hibiscus family or Malvaceae. Rosella flower contains polyphenols which are useful as an antibacterial. Polyphenols appear to function as an antibacterial in a way denature bacterial cell proteins. Gingivitis is an inflammation of the gingiva caused by microorganisms attached to the tooth surface. The purpose of this study to determine the effect of rinsing with roselle tea to speed healing of gingivitis pas casketing. The analytical method used is paired samples t-test for comparative analysis of pre-test and post-test in each test group and independent sample t-test for comparative analysis of treatment group and the control group with a total sample of 120 people. Gargling with tea treatment group and the control group rosella gargle with salt water. Rinsing is done in the morning and evening for five days. The research instrument used was Loe gingival index and Silliness 1963. The results showed that a decline in gingival inflammation plaque score well in the treatment group or the control group. There is a significant difference between the treatment group and control group (p <0.05). It can be concluded that gargling with tea rosella more effectively inhibit the formation of plaque and gingivitis accelerate the healing of post-scaling.Keywords:   Gingivitis, a plaque, the RosellaBunga   rosella   (Hibiscus   sabdariffa   L.)   merupakan   tanaman   hias berkelopak bunga tebal yang tergolong pada keluarga kembang sepatu atau Malviceae.

Abstract Background & Aims: The role of touch in managing psychiatric patients is controversial. The purpose of this pilot study was to determine the effectiveness of osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) in patients with anxiety and or depression. Methods: This was an 8-week pilot study comparing a treatment to a control group, each consisting of 10 randomly assigned adult participants with anxiety and or depression on psychotropics. No significant difference existed between groups for age or severity of disease. Participant responses for anxiety and depression were recorded weekly via a modified Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7 item (GAD-7) and Harvard National Depression Screening Day (HANDS) scales. From the initial cohort (n=20) a complete database was achieved for 16 of the patients. Statistical analysis was performed using RStudio. Results: Of the 16 patients who successfully participated in the study, 6 received OMT, and 10 were part of the control group. For statistical purposes, the data gathered from both groups were subdivided into two categories: depression and anxiety subgroups. The depression treatment group had a week 1 mean of 24.4 ± 11.2 (n=5) with a paired t-test showing significance at week 7 of 18.0 ± 10.9 (n=5), P = .00767 and week 8 of 15.2 ± 12.5 (n=5), P = .041.The anxiety treatment group had a week 1 mean of 26.0 ± 8.7 (n=5) with paired t-test significant at week 7 of 20.2 ± 10.7 (n=5), P = .019 and week 8 of 19.2 ± 11.1 (n=5), P = .00815.All patients in the treatment group showed significant improvements in their anxiety and depression levels compared to those in the control group, which worsened by week 8. Conclusions: Findings in this study indicate that OMT may be an effective adjunctive treatment modality for depression and anxiety.
