Objective: ADHD has been associated with persistent problems of working memory. This study investigated the efficacy of an intensive and adaptive computerized working memory treatment (CWMT) at behavioral and neural levels. Method: College students ( n = 89; 40 females) with ADHD were randomized into a standard-length CWMT (45 min/session, 25 sessions, n = 29), shortened-length CWMT (15 min/session, 25 sessions, n = 32), and a waitlist group ( n = 28). Both CWMT groups received treatment for 5 days a week for 5 weeks. Lab sessions before and after CWMT assessed electroencephalography (EEG) indicators of working memory, behavioral indicators of working memory performance, and ADHD symptomatology. Results: No evidence was found for neural or any other behavioral transfer effects of improvement for the CWMT treatment groups over the active control or waitlist group. Conclusion: Our study does not provide evidence for the benefits of CWMT at neural or behavioral levels.

BACKGROUND፡ The majority of population rely on traditional medicine as a source of healthcare. Artemisia afra is a plant traditionally used for its medicinal values, including treatment of malaria in many parts of the world. Currently, it is also attracting attention because of a claim that a related species, Artemisia annua, is a remedy for the COVD-19 pandemic. The aim of the present study was to investigate toxic effects of A. afra on brain, heart and suprarenal glands in mice aged 8-12 weeks and weighing 25-30g.METHODS: Leaves of A.afra were collected from Bale National Park, dried under shade, crushed into powder and soaked in distilled water to yield aqueous extract for oral administration. For acute toxicity study, seven treated and one control groups, with 3 female mice each, were used. They were given a single dose of 200mg/kg, 700mg/kg, 1200mg/kg, 2200mg/kg, 3200mg/kg, 4200mg/kg or 5000mg/kg b/wt of the extract. For the sub-acute toxicity study, two treated and one control groups, with 5 female and 5 male mice each, were used. They were daily treated with 600mg/kg or 1800mg/kg b/wt of extract.RESULTS: LD50 was found to be greater than 5000mg/kg indicating that the plant is relatively safe. In the sub-acute study, no signs of toxicity were observed in all treatment groups. On microscopic examination of the brain, heart and suprarenal glands no sign of cellular injury was observed.CONCLUSION: The findings of this study suggest that the leaves extract of A. afra is relatively safe in mice.

Background: Anemia is a problem that affects reproductive health among adolescent. High incidence of anemia among adolescents still needs an attention. One of which is the consumption of foods containing iron (Fe). The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of soybean-date palm (kurma) milk consumption on hemoglobin (Hb) levels among adolescent girls. Subjects and Method: A quasi experiment was conducted at the Al Ma’ruf Islamic Boarding School in Kediri, East Java, from March to July 2020. The samples obtained were 28 people who had Hb below 12 g% and were not menstruating. The sample was divided into 4 treatment groups i.e. A group (100 g soybean and 100 g date palm), B group (100 g soybean and 50 gr date palm), C group (100 g soybean and 60 g date palm), D group (50 g soybean and 60 gr date palm). The dependent variable was hemoglobin level. The independent variable was the consumption of soy- date palm milk. Data of hemoglobin levels were taken before and after the consumption of soybean- date palm milk with a ratio data scale. The other data were collected using observational sheet. The data were analyzed using t-test. Results: Hemoglobin levels was increased from 10.24 to 12.03 (p= 0.021) in A group, and it was statistically significant. While groups B, C, and D had no effect on the consumption of soybean-date palm milk on hemoglobin levels among adolescent girls. Conclusion: Soybean-date palm milk consumption with ratio of 1:1 increasing hemoglobin level among adolescent girls.

AIM: This study aims to determine the effect of adjuvant Vitamin C on brain-derived neurotropic factors (BDNF) levels and improvement of negative symptoms in schizophrenic patients. METHODS: This study was conducted at Hasanuddin University Hospital and its affiliate with 60 schizophrenic patients (30 controls, 27 treatments, and three dropout patients). The ELISA sample examination method was used to examine blood levels of BDNF, and Vitamin C levels before and after administration of Vitamin C. In addition, the negative symptoms were measured using the PANSS score. RESULTS: There was a significant increase in BDNF levels in treatments group compared the control at 4th–8th weeks with p = 0.005 (4th week) and ≤0.0001 (<0.05) (8th week). The improvement in PANSS scores for negative symptoms in the treatment groups compared to the controls at the 2nd, 4th, and 8th weeks resulted in p = 0.042 (2nd week) and <0.0001 (4th–8th weeks). Furthermore, there was an increase in serum Vitamin C levels in the treatment groups with an initial average value = 4.762 and after 8 weeks = 148.155. Strong correlation between increased BDNF levels and improvement in negative symptoms on the PANSS score was found with p = 0.001 (4th week) and ≤0.0001 (8th week). CONCLUSION: The administration of Vitamin C significantly increases BDNF levels and improves the PANSS score for negative symptoms in the treatments compared to the control groups.

Assertive Training

The long-term goal of this research is to try to reduce the cyberbullying problem lane in Indonesia, as it is known that the victims of cyberbullying cases are increasing every year. one of the causes is the lack of assertiveness towards the victim and in order to be more prudent in using information technology. The solution to these problems is through socialization or training related to cyberbullying, namely socialization or assertive training. Whereas the specific target to be achieved is after assertive training in order to minimize cyberbullying victims and provide information to others. The cyberbullying variable in this study is an independent variable and the assertive training dependent variable. The population in this study was from class X students at MA Darul Ulum Sidoarjo, amounting to 90 students. The study will use a sampling method that is census, so that all populations will be given training and cyberbullying scale. The analysis technique that will be used is to use paired t-test analysis. With a significance result of 0,000 <0.05, then Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted, meaning that the hypothesis states that there are differences before and after being given assertive training in reducing cyberbullying behavior, meaning that with assertive training it decreases cyberbullying behavior

The actor/observer effect was examined by Storms in a 1973 study which manipulated perceptual orientation using video recordings. Storms' study was complex and some of his results equivocal. The present study attempted to recreate the perceptual reorientation effect using a simplified experimental design and an initial difference between actors and observers which was the reverse of the original effect. Female undergraduates performed a motor co-ordination task as actors while watched by observers. Each person made attributions for the actor's behaviour before and after watching a video recording of the performance. For a control group the video recording was of an unrelated variety show excerpt. Actors' initial attributions were less situational than observers'. Both actors and observers became more situational after the video replay but this effect occurred in both experimental and control groups. It was suggested the passage of time between first and second recording of attributions could account for the findings and care should be taken when interpreting Storms' (1973) study and others which did not adequately control for temporal effects.

Relevance.A neoplasm originated from the myelonic sheath of the nerve trunk is called neurinoma or neurilemmoma, neurinoma, schwannoglioma, schwannoma. This tumor can cause compression and dysfunction of adjacent tissues and organs. The most common are the auditory nerve neurinomas (1 case per 100 000 population per year), the brain and spinal cord neurinomas are rare. In the world literature, there is no information on the occurrences of this tumor in the pelvic region. Description.Presented below is a clinical observation of a 30-year-old patient who was scheduled for myomectomy. During laparoscopy, an unusual tumor of the small pelvis was found and radically removed. A morphological study allowed to identify the remote neoplasm as a neuroma. Conclusion.The presented practical case shows that any tumor can hide under a clinical mask of another disease. The qualification of the doctor performing laparoscopic myomectomy should be sufficient to carry out, if necessary, another surgical volume.
