There are plentiful activities conducted by the Cadets in order to hold educational process at the NavalAcademy. These activities are particularly vulnerable to physical and psychological friction, especiallyin routine and nurturing activities, where activities in this phase are thought to cause the Cadets toexperience excessive mental workloads which may result in the Cadets being unable to continue theireducation. Therefore, this research would identify one of the factors that were suspected to be thecause of the problem which was psychological factor or mental workload on the Academy of Navalusing Subjective Workload Asessesment Technique (SWAT) method. SWAT method was chosenbecause it was easier to apply and had some advantages in terms of results validity and accuracy, sothat the performance of Cadets expected by Institution were: Tanggap, Tanggon and Trengginas. Theresults of this study indicated that there was a high mental workload for some sub activities at somelevel. The highest mental workload in level I is 69,0 (RPS activity), in level II is 83,4 (senior juniordevelopment), in level III is 77,6 (senior junior development). Besides this research also showed thatthe mental workload between the four levels of Level I, II, III and IV had a significant difference inmental workload in carrying out every activity at the Academy.Keywords: Subjective Workload Assessment Technique (SWAT), Mental Workload, Cadets.

Mental workload is the difference between the demands of a task workload with the maximum capacity of a person's mental capability in a motivated state. The purpose of this study was to determine the level of the mental burden of mechanics using the SWAT and QNBM methods. The results of the Subjective Workload Assessment Technique method for heavy service workload showed that the mechanics were 56.6% burdened. Mental workload dimensions for mechanics 1 and 3 are effort load, for mechanic 2 is time load. The category for light service is 11.11%, unburdened in the time load dimension for all mechanics. Nordic Body Map Questionnaire Method was 67%, with illness category included.

Abstract Background Muscle contractures are developing during childhood and may cause extensive problems in gait and every day functioning in children with cerebral palsy (CP). The aim of the present study was to evaluate how the popliteal angle (PA) and hamstrings spasticity change during childhood in walking children with spastic bilateral CP. Methods The present study was a longitudinal register-based cohort study including 419 children (1–15 years of age) with spastic bilateral CP, gross motor function classification system (GMFCS) level I, II and III included in the Norwegian CP Follow-up Program (CPOP). From 2006 to 2018 a total of 2193 tests were performed. The children were tested by trained physiotherapists yearly or every second year, depending on GMFCS level and age. The PA and the hamstrings spasticity (Modified Ashworth scale (MAS)) were measured at every time point. Both legs were included in the analysis. Results There was an increase in PA with age for all three GMFCS levels with significant differences between the levels from 1 up to 8 years of age. At the age of 10 years there was no significant difference between GMFCS level II and III. At the age of 14 years all three GMFCS levels had a mean PA above 40° and there were no significant differences between the groups. The hamstrings spasticity scores for all the three GMFCS levels were at the lower end of the MAS (mean < 1+), however they were significantly different from each other until 8 years of age. The spasticity increased the first four years in all three GMFCS levels, thereafter the level I and II slightly increased, and level III slightly decreased, until the age of 15 years. Conclusion The present study showed an increasing PA during childhood. There were significantly different PAs between GMFCS level I, II and III up to 8 years of age. At the age of 14 years all levels showed a PA above 40°. The spasticity increased up to 4 years of age, but all the spasticity scores were at the lower end of the MAS during childhood.

This study aims at evaluating the congestion level of pedestrians in metro stations. Twelve hours (4 h × three facilities) of video data were collected in the channel, stairway, and platform in a metro station in the city of Ningbo, China. The indicator of GPC (grade of pedestrian crowd) was proposed to quantify the congestion level of pedestrians. Four levels of congestion (level I, level II, level III, and level IV) were determined based on the GPC. A normal-cloud (NC) model was proposed and calibrated for the evaluation of three facilities including channel, stairway, and platform. The evaluation results showed that the GPC of L1-L2 and L2-L1 in channel are level II and level I, respectively. The GPC of upward and downward of stairway are level III and level I. The GPC of platform is level IV. Crowd management countermeasures were proposed for the management of pedestrians in metro station.

A study was performed to assess pilot workload associated with the employment of an air-to-air weapon system integrated onto an attack helicopter. Mental workload was assessed using the Subjective Workload Assessment Technique (SWAT). Pilots performed simulated engagements against an airborne target under varying conditions of engagement type, time of day, target background, and target range. The results indicated significant differences in SWAT ratings as a function of time of day and engagement type. To a lesser degree, SWAT ratings were also sensitive to changes in target background and range. These results are consistent with laboratory and simulation studies which have shown SWAT to be sensitive to changes in task demand and further demonstrate the utility of SWAT for assessing operator workload in the less structured test and evaluation environment.

Trauma centers are designated by the American College of Surgeons (ACS) into four different levels based on resources, volume, and scientific and educational commitment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between ACS center designation and outcomes after early thoracotomy for trauma. The National Trauma Databank (v. 7.0) was used to identify all patients who required early thoracotomy. Demographics, clinical data, and outcomes were extracted. Patients were categorized according to ACS trauma center designation. Multivariate logistic regression was used to evaluate the impact of ACS trauma center designation on mortality. From 2002 to 2006, 1834 (77.4%) patients were admitted to a Level I ACS verified trauma center, 474 (20.0%) to a Level II, and 59 (3.6%) to a Level III/IV facility. After adjusting for differences between the groups, there were no significant differences in mortality (overall: 53.3% for Level I, 63.1% for Level II, and 52.5% for Level III/IV, adjusted P = 0.417; or for patients arriving in cardiac arrest: 74.9% vs 87.1% vs 85.0%, P = 0.261). Subgroup analysis did not show any significant difference in survival irrespective of mechanism of injury. Glasgow Coma Scale score # 8, Injury Severity Score >16, no admission systolic blood pressure, time from admission to thoracotomy, and nonteaching hospitals were found to be independent predictors of death. For trauma patients who have sustained injuries requiring early thoracotomy, ACS trauma center designation did not significantly impact mortality. Nonteaching institutions however, were independently associated with poorer outcomes after early thoracotomy. These findings may have important implications in educational commitment of institutions. Further prospective evaluation of these findings is warranted.

Contrastive feature hierarchies have been developed and used for some time in depicting typical phonological development and in guiding therapy decisions. Previous descriptions of feature use have been based on independent analyses and usually phonetic inventories. However, recent trends in phonology include a relational analysis of phonemic inventories (D. Ingram & K. D. Ingram, 2001). The current investigation was a relational analysis of the phonemic inventories of 40 typically developing 2-year-old American-English-speaking children. Consonant inventories were derived from spontaneous speech samples using the Logical International Phonetics Programs computer software (D. K. Oller & R. E. Delgado, 1999). Cluster analysis was used to determine the grouping of contrastive features. Four levels emerged. Level I included [consonant], [sonorant], and [coronal], Level II included [voice], Level III included [anterior], [continuant], and [nasal], and Level IV included [lateral] and [strident]. Results suggested that the resulting 4-level phonemic feature hierarchy might be used to classify the phonological systems of children with phonological disorders.

ABSTRACT Lapetal is an organization within the Indonesian Navy that is tasked with carrying out Navy recruitment. With the increasing number of duties and responsibilities of Lapetal and seeing the current condition of Lapetal, it is necessary to make efforts to develop Lapetal in the future. The purpose of this research is to identify the factors that influence in determining the Lapetal development strategy, determine the alternative strategy for Lapetal development, and produce a roadmap of the selected alternative strategies for Lapetal development. This study uses an integrated SWOT analysis and Interpretative Structural Modeling. SWOT analysis is used to formulate and provide alternatives in Lapetal development strategies. ISM is used to determine the priority order of the selected strategy which is then applied in making the roadmap. Based on the results of the SWOT matrix analysis, the SO Strategy consists of 6 (six) strategic steps, the ST Strategy consists of 5 (five) strategic steps, the WO Strategy consists of 8 (eight) strategic steps and the WT strategy consists of 4 (four) strategic steps. Based on weighting using the EFAS and IFAS matrices, the chosen strategy is the WO Strategy, so that the WO strategy becomes the first alternative. Based on the results of the classification of elements in the WO strategy, there are 4 (four) levels of hierarchical structure. In this hierarchical structure, it can be seen that the (WO5) and (WO6) sub-strategies are at level IV. Then the sub strategies (WO3) and (WO4) are at level III. At level II it consists of 3 (three) sub strategies, namely (WO1), (WO2), and (WO7). At level I, it is the sub strategy (WO8). The output of the SWOT and ISM analysis process in determining the Lapetal development strategy is a map or roadmap implemented in a strategic plan which is divided into five-year programs. Keywords: Lapetal, Development Strategy, SWOT, ISM, Road map

Abstract Introduction The purpose of this study was to review and compare clinical outcomes between percutaneous needle fasciotomy (PNF) and collagenase Clostridium histolyticum (CCH) injection for the treatment of Dupuytren’s contracture. Materials and Methods A systematic review was performed including all level I-III evidence studies investigating the clinical outcomes of PNF and CCH injection in the treatment of Dupuytren’s contracture. Results Five studies (278 CCH patients, 225 PNF patients; 285 CCH fingers, 246 PNF fingers, 405 males, and 98 females) were analyzed. Two randomized studies were level I evidence, one randomized study was level II, and two nonrandomized studies were level III. Two studies analyzed a total of 205 patients, each demonstrating statistically superior outcomes in one outcome measure (contracture improvement and Michigan Hand Questionnaire (MHQ) satisfaction subscore) with PNF, while the remaining three studies demonstrated no significant differences in outcomes between the two techniques. Three studies reported a statistically higher rate of minor complications (local pain, edema, ecchymosis, lymphadenopathy, pruritis) with CCH, while the remaining two studies demonstrated no significant difference in complication rates. Conclusion For the treatment of Dupuytren’s contracture, there is some evidence that suggests superior clinical outcomes of PNF compared with CCH and a higher minor complication rate with CCH.
