Aiming at the demands of top-down task transmission and bottom-up status coordination in the execution of ship curved block construction, a hierarchical execution process monitoring technique considering workplace, curved block, task package (TP) and workload distribution sheet (WDS) was put forward. Adopting linear fitting and graphics epitaxy, the plane vector projection modeling for ship curved block was achieved. Based on visualized monitoring technology for curved blocks evolution over time in workplace, a hierarchical execution process monitoring system was built. Through data collection and feedback based on work distribution sheet, the backwards status coordination was implemented. At last, the validity of the proposed technique was verified by an application example.

Diabetes melitus merupakan penyakit degeneratif kronis yang apabila tidak ditangani dengan tepat, lama kelamaan bisa timbul berbagai komplikasi, ini cenderung menyebabkan pasien mendapatkan banyak obat dalam satu resep yang dapat menimbulkan interaksi antar obat. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah mengetahui persentase terjadinya interaksi obat metformin secara teori serta mengkaji efek yang mungkin timbul dan solusinya. Teknik pengambilan data dengan purpossive sampling, yaitu resep pasien rujuk balik yang menderita diabetes mellitus yang menggunakan metformin. Data yang diperoleh ditemukan bahwa obat yang berinteraksi dengan metformin dengan tingkat keparahan minor ialah sebesar 60%. Kemudian untuk tingkat keparahan moderat ialah sebesar 20%. Sedangkan untuk tingkat keparahan mayor tidak ditemukan. Dari tabel diatas juga dapat diketahui bahwa terdapat 4 obat yang saling berinteraksi dengan metformin, sedangkan untuk obat yang tidak saling berinteraksi dengan metformin terdapat 9 obat. Jumlah obat yang berinteraksi secara teori sebesar 6,85% dan yang tidak berinteraksi 93,15%. Terdapat interaksi obat metformin dengan beberapa obat yaitu furosemid, lisinopril, acarbose dan ramipril.   Kata kunci: interaksi obat, metformin, diabetes mellitus   STUDY OF METFORMIN INTERACTION IN MELLITUS DIABETES PATIENTS   ABSTRACT Mellitus is a chronic degenerative disease which if not handled properly, over time can arise various complications, this tends to cause patients to get many drugs in one recipe that can cause interactions between drugs. The purpose of this study is to determine percentage of metformin drug interactions in theory and examine the effects that may arise and solutions. Data collection techniques using purposive sampling, which is a recipe for reconciliation patients who suffer from diabetes mellitus using metformin. The data obtained it was found that drugs that interact with metformin with minor severity were 60%. Then for moderate severity is 20%. Whereas the major severity was not found. From the table above it can also be seen that there are 4 drugs that interact with metformin, while for drugs that do not interact with metformin there are 9 drugs. The number of drugs that interacted theoretically was 6.85% and 93.15% did not interact. An interaction of the drug metformin with several drugs namely furosemide, lisinopril, acarbose and ramipril.   Keywords: drug interaction, metformin, diabetes mellitus

BACKGROUND Digital health (DH) innovation ecosystems (IE) are key to the development of new e-health products and services. Within an IE, third parties can help promote innovation by acting as knowledge brokers and the conduits for developing inter-organisational and interpersonal relations, particularly for smaller organisations. Kolehmainen’s quadruple helix model suggests who the critical IE actors are, and their roles. Within an affluent and largely urban setting, such ecosystems evolve and thrive organically with minimal intervention due to favourable economic and geographical conditions. Facilitating and sustaining a thriving DH IE within a resource-poor setting can be far more challenging even though far more important for such peripheral economics and the health and well-being of those communities. OBJECTIVE Taking a rural and remote region in the UK, as an instance of an IE in a peripheral economy, we adapt the quadruple helix model of innovation, apply a monitored social networking approach using McKinsey’s Three Horizons of growth to explore: • What patterns of connectivity between stakeholders develop within an emerging digital health IE? • How do networks develop over time in the DH IE? • In what ways could such networks be nurtured in order to build the capacity, capability and sustainability of the DH IE? METHODS Using an exploratory single case study design for a developing digital health IE, this study adopts a longitudinal social network analysis approach, enabling the authors to observe the development of the innovation ecosystem over time and evaluate the impact of targeted networking interventions on connectivity between stakeholders. Data collection was by an online survey and by a novel method, connection cards. RESULTS Self-reported connections between IE organisations increased between the two waves of data collection, with Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) and academic institutions the most connected stakeholder groups. Patients involvement improved over time but still remains rather peripheral to the DH IE network. Connection cards as a monitoring tool worked really well during large events but required significant administrative overheads. Monitored networking information categorised using McKinsey’s Three Horizons proved to be an effective way to organise networking interventions ensuring sustained engagement. CONCLUSIONS The study reinforces the difficulty of developing and sustaining a DH IE in a resource-poor setting. It demonstrates the effective monitored networking approach supported by Social Network Analysis allows to map the networks and provide valuable information to plan future networking interventions (e.g. involving patients or service users). McKinsey’s Three Horizons of growth-based categorisation of the networking assets help ensure continued engagement in the DH IE contributing towards its long-term sustainability. Collecting ongoing data using survey or connection card method will become more labour intensive and ubiquitous ethically driven data collection methods can be used in future to make the process more agile and responsive.

Many outcome variables in developmental psychopathology research are highly stable over time. In conventional longitudinal data analytic approaches such as multiple regression, controlling for prior levels of the outcome variable often yields little (if any) reliable variance in the dependent variable for putative predictors to explain. Three strategies for coping with this problem are described. One involves focusing on developmental periods of transition, in which the outcome of interest may be less stable. A second is to give careful consideration to the amount of time allowed to elapse between waves of data collection. The third is to consider trait-state-occasion models that partition the outcome variable into two dimensions: one entirely stable and trait-like, the other less stable and subject to occasion-specific fluctuations.

AbstractMany observers worry that growing numbers of international institutions with overlapping functions undermine governance effectiveness via duplication, inconsistency and conflict. Such pessimistic assessments may undervalue the mechanisms available to states and other political agents to reduce conflictual overlap and enhance inter-institutional synergy. Drawing on historical data I examine how states can mitigate conflict within Global Governance Complexes (GGCs) by dissolving or merging existing institutions or by re-configuring their mandates. I further explore how “order in complexity” can emerge through bottom-up processes of adaptation in lieu of state-led reform. My analysis supports three theoretical claims: (1) states frequently refashion governance complexes “top-down” in order to reduce conflictual overlap; (2) “top-down” restructuring and “bottom-up” adaptation present alternative mechanisms for ordering relations among component institutions of GGCs; (3) these twin mechanisms ensure that GGCs tend to (re)produce elements of order over time–albeit often temporarily. Rather than evolving towards ever-greater fragmentation and disorder, complex governance systems thus tend to fluctuate between greater or lesser integration and (dis)order.

Departing from tendencies to bound precarity in particular time periods and world regions, this article develops an expansive view of precarity over time and across space. Beyond effects of specific global events and macroscale structures, precarity inhabits the microspaces of everyday life. However, people attempt to disengage the stress of precarious life by constructing the illusion of certainty. Reflexive denial of precarious life entails essentialist strategies that implicitly or explicitly classify and homogenize people and phenomena, legitimize the constructed boundaries, and in the process aim at eliminating difference and possibilities for negotiation; the tension between these goals and material realities helps explain misrepresentations that can be catastrophic at multiple scales, re-creating precarity. Reactions to 9/11 by the Bush administration represent a case in point of reflexive denial of precarity through strategies that created illusions of certainty with deleterious results. Normatively, the paradox of precarious life and reflexive denials prompts questions as to how urges for certainty in the context of precarity might be constructively channeled. the author approaches this challenge in the final section by drawing from a nexus of concerns about post-Habermasian radical democracy, individual thought and feeling, and network dynamics. Whereas Hardt and Negri reverse the direction of the Foucauldian concept of biopower from top-down to bottom-up, the author draws from Foucault's concept of governmentality in relation to resistance to imagine a cooperative politics operating within as well as across scales.

Three techniques for assessing extension of one's personal future (line-marking, open-ended report, life-events) were compared in a sample of 74 respondents. Two points of data collection were employed to examine short-term stability. At both administrations, correlations among indices suggested that techniques were only moderately comparable. Short-term stabilities were variable; correlations ranged from .42 to .79. Across subgroups of the sample, the direct, open-ended report of extension showed the greatest stability, while life-event extension showed the least. Apparently, extension of thinking about the future should be assessed by more than one technique to investigate potential relationships with other variables or changes over time in perspective about the future.
