Career exploration is one of the career development tasks that individuals commonly go through. In reality, these activities may cause problems for specific individuals, including students. Career guidance can assist individuals in successfully passing through this stage of a person’s life. Of the many career intervention models available, no previous research has utilized career planning guidebooks as a form of intervention to help students make career plans. This study aimed to validate a career planning guidebook created by the researcher and test its content and functional validity. Tests of content validity were conducted through professional judgment, while tests of functional validity were conducted via a quasi-experiment. The results showed that all the contents of the career planning guidebook were aligned with the goals of the career planning guidebook (Average of V= 0.6). The experiment results indicated significant difference in perceptions of career planning before and after the intervention (Z=-3.987; p=0.000). The findings concluded that the career planning guidebook is valid, both in terms of content and function.

Abstract Introduction With regular and long-term exercises, the heart undergoes changes that are called the adaptation of the heart in response to exercise or physiological changes, which contrasts with the pathological changes caused by hypertension and aortic valve stenosis. However, the exact effects of exercise on the structure and function of the heart depend on the type, intensity and duration of exercise, the amount of physical fitness, inheritance, and gender. Materials and Methods In this prospective clinical trial study, 40 subjects, including 20 in the endurance exercise group and 20 in the exercise group, were evaluated. Echocardiography was performed for all of these subjects before and after the exercises that was performed professionally for 8 weeks under the supervision of the trainer and the changes were recorded. The data were analyzed statistically by SPSS20 software. A significant level of 0.05 was considered. Results The mean ± standard deviation of the age was 20/80 ± 1/42 years. Significant decrease in mean RVSM was observed only in the strength group (P = 0.008). There was no significant difference in the endurance group . There was no significant difference between the two groups before the test in the mean TAPSE (P = 0.46). The mean of TAPSE in the endurance group was 0.22 ± 1.99 and in the strength group was 0.31 ± 1.95. There was no significant difference between the two groups (P 0.46). There was no significant difference between the two groups before the test in the mean E / e (P = 0.51). The mean E / e "in the endurance group was 0.47 ± 4.75 and in the strength group was 0.54 ± 5.50, and there was a significant difference between the two groups (P <0.001). The mean SWDT in the endurance group was 0.12 ± 0.95 and in the strength group was 0.11 ± 1.06, and there was a significant difference between the two groups (P = 0.002). There was a significant increase in mean SWDT in the strength group after the test (P <0.001) .There was a significant increase in mean PAP in the strength group (P = 0.007) . There was a significant increase in mean LV mass index in the strength group (P <0.001),with no significant difference between the two groups in mean FAC. Conclusion It seems that any kind of strength and endurance exercise affects the performance status, however, strength exercises have more effects which causes RV dysfunction. All indexes measured changed within normal level except for PAP that had abnormal changes after endurance exercise .

Objectives. The newly developed therapeutic deep heating device can generate deep heat in focal tissue using high-frequency wave stimulation. The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of this deep heating device (HIPER-500®) with ultrasound in alleviating pain and improving function in patients with shoulder disability. Methods. This noninferiority trial was designed to compare the treatment effect of HIPER-500® to that of SonoStim® (ultrasound) on shoulder pain and disability. Thirty-eight patients with shoulder problems were assigned to either the HIPER-500® or SonoStim® group, and each participated in 10 min therapy sessions, five days a week for two weeks (for a total of ten sessions). Shoulder pain and disability were evaluated using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), the University of California at Los Angeles score (UCLA score), the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI), and the Constant score in both groups before, immediately after, and four weeks after treatment. Statistical analysis was performed to compare the effects of treatment within and between the groups. Results. A total of 34 patients completed the study. The 18 patients in the HIPER-500® group and 16 patients in the SonoStim® group all showed significant improvements in shoulder pain and function when comparing pretreatment values with the results immediately after treatment and four weeks later. The results before and after treatment did not show a statistically significant difference between the two groups. Conclusions. The newly developed HIPER-500® for high-frequency deep heat therapy showed similar effects to those of SonoStim® for relieving pain and improving physical performance in the patients of this study. HIPER-500® may be a useful modality for treating shoulder pain and improving physical activity in patients with shoulder disease.

The Difference

Considering the major role of human resource in achieving the company’s goal the company should provide an operational skill or knowledge directly from manager to employee’s levels. The company should give the employees a better understanding that the training is provided not only to execute the pre-determined program smoothly, but also to increase the quality of their achievement in their own field that in turn will influence their income, performance and future career planning. Comparing the statistical scores gained by the employee before and after the training proves the significant difference. After the training the score was higher (3.87%) than before the training (3.08%), which means that the training gave good impact. Other statistical computation using t – paired samples with α = 0.005 and degree of freedom (df = 29) also proved the difference where t counted (-38.445) is bigger than t table (-1.669). The training was basically aiming at formulating the expected ability from the employees to change their behavior. Such a change was formulated in terms of behavioral change and a short-term educational program by using systemic and organized procedures, so that operative employees learn technical and skill knowledge for specific purpose.

Palm oil is one of the commodities of plantation products that has an important role in economic activities in Indonesia because of its ability to produce vegetable oil which is much needed by the industrial sector. The potential development of Indonesia's palm oil exports is very high considering the many benefits derived from these products. Therefore, there is a need to ensure that CPO products have a sustainable nature, one of which is that CPO products must be RSPO certified. This study analyzes how the influence of various factors that can affect Indonesia's CPO exports, one of which is RSPO certification using panel regression with the basic gravity model. The data which is used in this research is panel data in the form of time series for 20 years with cross sections from five major importing during 1999-2018. The analysis shows that importer’s GDP and exchange rate significantly and positively affect Indonesia's CPO exports, while the population of the importing country has a significant and negative effect. The RSPO dummy variable shows a significant and positive value, meaning that there was a significant difference between CPO exports when the RSPO certification took effect before and after 2008. Although the RSPO has an effect on Indonesia's CPO exports, there are still a number of indicators from the RSPO that Indonesia has not been able to fulfill. That indicator can be used as a material for consideration to be adopted in national certifications such as ISPO so that Indonesian CPO products can be said to be sustainable so that they can reach wider export markets.

 Insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) is a ligand of the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase and participates in the insulin receptor signal transduction pathway. Dysregulations in IRS1 expression and function increase incidence of insulin-resistant states such as prediabetes and type 2 diabetes. The study aimed to investigate the association of the Gly972Arg (rs1801278) polymorphism in IRS1 gene with prediabetes in Northern Vietnamese women. The case-control study consisted of 1617 women (250 prediabetic cases and 1367 normoglycemic controls). The IRS1 Gly972Arg polymorphism was genotyped in these subjects using polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism. The frequency of the ‘‘A’’ allele of the Gly972Arg (G>A) polymorphism was similar between the normal glucose and prediabetic subjects (2.7% and 2.6%, respectively). There was no significant difference in the genotypic frequency between the control and prediabetic cases (P = 0.673). The IRS1 Gly972Arg polymorphism was not associated with the risk of prediabetes in Vietnamese women before and after adjusted for socio-economic, lifestyles and clinical factors (P > 0.05).

Introduction. An osteopathic examination determines the rate, the amplitude and the strength of the main rhythms (cardiac, respiratory and cranial). However, there are relatively few studies in the available literature dedicated to the influence of osteopathic correction (OC) on the characteristics of these rhythms.Goal of research — to study the influence of OC on the rate characteristics of various rhythms of the human body.Materials and methods. 88 adult osteopathic patients aged from 18 to 81 years were examined, among them 30 men and 58 women. All patients received general osteopathic examination. The rate of the cranial rhythm (RCR), respiratory rate (RR) heart rate (HR), the mobility of the nervous processes (MNP) and the connective tissue mobility (CTM) were assessed before and after the OC session.Results. Since age varied greatly in the examined group, a correlation analysis of age-related changes of the assessed rhythms was carried out. Only the CTM correlated with age (r=–0,28; p<0,05) in a statistically significant way. The rank dispersion analysis of Kruskal–Wallis also showed statistically significant difference in this indicator in different age groups (p=0,043). With the increase of years, the CTM decreases gradually. After the OC, the CTM, increased in a statistically significant way (p<0,0001). The RCR varied from 5 to 12 cycles/min in the examined group, which corresponded to the norm. After the OC, the RCR has increased in a statistically significant way (p<0,0001), the MNP has also increased (p<0,0001). The initial heart rate in the subjects varied from 56 to 94 beats/min, and in 15 % it exceeded the norm. After the OC the heart rate corresponded to the norm in all patients. The heart rate and the respiratory rate significantly decreased after the OC (р<0,0001).Conclusion. The described biorhythm changes after the OC session may be indicative of the improvement of the nervous regulation, of the normalization of the autonomic balance, of the improvement of the biomechanical properties of body tissues and of the increase of their mobility. The assessed parameters can be measured quickly without any additional equipment and can be used in order to study the results of the OC.
