Objetivo: Los objetivos del presente estudio fueron conocer la frecuencia de lesiones en una temporada, analizar hábitos de calentamiento, identificar factores de riesgos intrínsecos y extrínsecos relacionados con lesiones y establecer relaciones entre las variables del cuestionario y las lesiones en jugadoras de baloncesto. Método: Setenta jugadoras (23±6 años) de baloncesto federadas participaron en este estudio descriptivo retrospectivo utilizando una adaptación de un cuestionario de lesiones deportivas autocompletado por las jugadoras, el cual contenía variables relacionadas con la aparición y prevención de lesiones en el baloncesto. Se realizó un análisis de frecuencias y porcentajes y tablas de contingencia mediante el test de Chi-Cuadrado. Resultados: Se encontraron relaciones significativas entre el número de sesiones y las jugadoras lesionadas (p <.05), así como la realización de la práctica en diferentes pavimentos a lo largo de la temporada (p <.05). Las jugadoras utilizaban una tipología de calentamiento tradicional, alejado de las recomendaciones actuales. La estructura anatómica más afectada fue el tobillo/pie seguido de la rodilla, siendo el esguince el tipo de lesión predominante. Conclusión: Aumentar el número de sesiones semanales está relacionado con un incremento del número de lesiones. Las lesiones de las articulaciones del tobillo/pie y la rodilla son las más frecuentes en este deporte. Realizar la práctica de baloncesto en distintas superficies a lo largo de la temporada podría incrementar el número de lesiones. Abstract. Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the frequency of injuries over a season, analyse warm-up routines, identify intrinsic and extrinsic risk factors related to injuries, and establish relationships between the variables of the questionnaire and injuries in female basketball players. Methods: Seventy female players (23±6 years) from federated basketball teams participated in this retrospective descriptive study, which used an adaptation of a sports injury questionnaire filled by the players and containing variables related to the occurrence and prevention of injuries in basketball. Analysis of frequencies and percentages and contingency tables was carried out using the Chi-Square test. Results: Significant relationships were found between number of sessions and injured players (p <.05), as well as the carrying out of practices on different surfaces throughout the season (p <.05). The players used a typology of traditional warm-up, far from the current recommendations. The most affected anatomical structure was the ankle/foot followed by the knee, sprain being the predominant type of injury. Conclusions: Increasing the number of weekly sessions is associated to an increase in the number of injuries. Injuries to ankle/foot and knee joints are the most common in this sport. Playing basketball on different surfaces throughout the season may increase the number of injuries.

Abstract The aims of this study were: 1) to evaluate the sports potential of young basketball players; 2) to identify variables that discriminate sports potential assessed by coaches; 3) to verifythe relationship between classification of the multidimensional profile of athletes and classification of the sports potential by coaches. Sixty-two young basketball players aged 15.6±1.1 years from U-15 (n = 24) and U-17 (n = 38) categories participated in the study. A test battery was applied to evaluate sports potential indicators: 1) anthropometric; 2) physicomotor; 3) psychological;4) skills;5) socio-environmental;6) maturational and 7) sports potential.Clusteranalysis was performed in three groups: high, medium and low potential. Student’s t-test was used for the comparison between athletes evaluated by the coach as excellent and the others and the Chi-Square test to verify the relationship between sports potential classifications. It was observed that in the high-potential group, athletes were chronologically older, with higher % predicted adult height (PMS), competitive and determined sports orientation, higher body size, lower skinfold summation, and greater physicomotor performance. In comparison with other athletes, high-potential basketball players presented higher stature, wider wingspan,longer limb length, greater predicted adult stature and higher Z score of the % PMS. It could be concluded that the multidimensional approach was useful for the evaluation of the sports potential of young basketball players, requiring the use of multidimensional variables, in addition to coaches’ opinion regarding the potential of their athletes.

Objective: This study evaluated the prevalence, clinical management and sequelae in deciduous teeth involved and permanent successors in 150 children (256 deciduous teeth. Of these, 63.3% were male, 24-35 months of age at the time of the trauma (37.9%) and the falls (78.1%) represented the major etiological factor. In relation to the type of injury, 24.6% was enamel fracture; 62.5% showed support tissue injury (lateral luxation, 22.3%). In the first and second assessments (T1 and T2), the average follow-up time was 14.5 and 26 months (256 and 131 teeth).We diagnosed clinical and radiographic sequels including discoloration of the crown (T1-15.6; T2-13.7%), inflammatory root resorption (T1-7.0; T2-8.4%); and in permanent successors, enamel hypoplasia (T1-1.2; T2-2.3%), eruption disturbances (T1-2.0; T2-1.5%).The chi-square test evidenced association, in T1, between injuries to the supporting tissues and clinical (p = 0.003) and radiographic (p = 0.004) sequelae in permanent successors; and between clinical sequelae and age at the time of trauma (p = 0.005). In T2, radiological sequelae in deciduous teeth with injuries to the tooth and supporting tissue (p = 0.035); as well as clinical sequelae with elapsed time of trauma in permanent teeth (p = 0.005). It is concluded that the follow-up of traumatized deciduous teeth is essential to prevent sequelae.

Background: Various factors predispose athletes with Anterior Knee Pain (AKP) making a holistic assessment & rehabilitation inevitable. Due to minimal rehabilitation services in under-resourced communities, runners are likely to report poorer health outcomes compared to other communities. Objective: The purpose was to report on the prevalence and determine extrinsic risk factors for AKP among runners in under-resourced communities. Materials & Methods: This was a cross-sectional study which included a population of 347 runners. Convenience sampling was used to recruit 183 participants aged between 13 and 55 with no history of knee surgery, traumatic or degenerative knee conditions. Questionnaires were used to collect data on AKP prevalence, and extrinsic risk factors. The SPSS (version 25) was used to analyse the data. Data were presented as frequencies and percentages and the results from chi-square and logistic regression tests. Results: Forty percent (40%) of participants presented with AKP, particularly males (n=106, 58%), youth (n=94, 51%) and participants with 3–5 years of running experience (n=57, 31%). Anterior knee pain was associated with age (X2=6.484, p=0.039) and running experience (X2=8.39, p=0.04). The following extrinsic risk factors contributed to AKP significantly: training load (p=0.04, Odds ratio [OR]=1.23); warm-up (p=0.04, OR=1.23); shoe condition (p=0.04, OR=0.14) and running surface (p=0.05, OR=1.2).  Discussion & conclusions: A substantial presence of AKP and its extrinsic risk factors were found among participants. These outcomes suggest that extrinsic risk factors should also be considered when managing AKP among runners. Keywords: Patellofemoral pain, external risk factors, athletes, poor resourced communities.

Pregnancy is a thing in life that can create a happy family, where there will be physical and mental changes that are naturally (Sigalingging, 2009). Nutritional problems that are often experienced by pregnant women is less Chronic Energy (KEK) and nutrition anemia. Cake during pregnancy will restrict fetal growth and risk BBLR. One of the parameters to determine the cake on the pregnant mother is to perform an examination of albumin. The low nutrient intake especially protein consumed during pregnancy as causes of nutrition disorders can be seen from the level of albumin blood pregnant. The trigger factor of lack of knowledge about nutrition and disregarding the pregnant mother to the condition of the pregnancy progresses, among others economic status level of education which is still very low and pregnancy at a young age. Maternal Nutrition knowledge is low, usually not followed by the action of good mothers to meet the nutrition intake during pregnancy progresses (Bahar, 2013). The general aim of this research is to know the relation of knowledge and action on nutrition with serum albumin pregnant in the working area of the Puskesmas Mandala Medan. This research is cohort studies with Cross Sectional design and data analyzed using the Chi Square Test to know the relation of knowledge and action on nutrition with serum albumin on the pregnant mother in the working area of the Puskesmas Mandala Medan. The results of the study showed that there are significant relationships between nutrition knowledge with serum albumin pregnant, and no significant relationships between the actions with serum albumin pregnant.

To improve health development in Jambi Province, it needs to be supported by qualified human resource that can improve performance of employees. The decrease in performance might be caused by no work satisfaction among them. One of the problems faced by Health Office of Jambi Province was decreasing a level of work satisfaction among employees from time to time. Promotion, equity in sharing either financial or non-financial incentive, and sharing tasks equally needed to be done in order improve their work satisfaction. The aim of this study was to figure out the influence of promotion, effectiveness in sharing tasks, and equity in sharing incentive towards work satisfaction of employees at the Health Office of Jambi Province. This was an observational study using cross-sectional approach. Number of population was 277 employees of the Health Office of Jambi Province. Meanwhile, number of samples was 74 persons. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analysed quantitatively using methods of univariate, bivariate (a Chi Square test), and multivariate (a Logistic Regression test). The results of this research showed that more than half of the respondents were satisfied (56.8%), had perception of balanced promotion (50%), had good effectiveness in sharing tasks (55.4%), and felt equal in sharing incentive (51.4%). There were any significant relationships between these three variables and work satisfaction of the employees. The results of multivariate analysis demonstrated that variables of promotion (p=0.015) and equity in sharing incentive (p=0.151) jointly influenced work satisfaction of the employees. As suggestions, employees need to pay more attention to the factors of promotion, effectiveness in sharing tasks, and equity in sharing incentive.

Vitrification is an ice-free cryopreservation method. However, ice can form during warming if the concentration of cryoprotectant is insufficient. For the best use of vitrified embryos, it is important to know the condition in which intracellular ice (ICI) is formed, since ICI is fatal to the cell. So, we tried to estimate the conditions in which ICI forms in vitrified embryos during warming. Compacted morulae were obtained from ICR mice. Vitrification solutions were prepared by diluting ethylene glycol (EG) with FS solution (PB1 medium containing 30% Ficoll and 0.5 M sucrose) at 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50% (EFS10, EFS20, EFS30, EFS40, and EFS50, respectively). Morulae were treated with the solutions for 30, 60, or 120 s at 25�C, loaded in a straw, and vitrified using liquid nitrogen. The sample was warmed by various methods. The survival of embryos was assessed by their ability to develop to expanded blastocysts in culture. The difference in survival was analyzed by the chi-square test. In addition, the morphology of damaged embryos was examined to estimate the type of injury. It was confirmed that 20% or more EG was necessary to prevent the formation of extracellular ice during cooling without embryos. In the rapid warming protocol (control), in which vitrified samples were directly immersed in 25�C water, high embryonic survival was obtained with EFS30 (79–88%) and EFS40 (96–99%), but not with EFS20 (12–45%) and EFS50 (0–14%). This suggests that embryos vitrified with EFS20 were injured by ICI, whereas those vitrified with EFS50 were injured by the chemical toxicity of the solution. When embryos vitrified with EFS30 and EFS40 were warmed slowly by holding the straw in air at 25�C for 120 s, the survival rate decreased significantly (44–64%), probably because the cytoplasm of the embryos that had vitrified in a state of supercooling devitrified during slow warming. To estimate the condition in which ICI forms, embryos vitrified with EFS30 and EFS40 were kept at intermediate temperatures for various times before being warmed in 25�C water. Compared with control, survival rates decreased significantly by keeping samples for 3 min at -80�C (27–65%), -60�C (16–39%), -40�C (6–26%), or -20�C (33–46%). These results suggest that ICI forms at a wide range of temperatures between -80�C and -20�C, but more likely forms at temperatures between -60�C and -40�C. When the holding time was prolonged to 1 h and 24 h, the survival decreased further (0–58% and 0–14%, respectively). This shows that ICI forms not only quickly but also slowly at an intermediate temperature. From the morphological examination, embryos that should be injured by ICI swelled at recovery in PB1 medium and collapsed in culture, whereas those that should be injured by the toxicity of solution underwent decompaction after culture. This observation reinforces our supposition that slowly warmed embryos are injured by ICI.

Background: In the ages when modern medicine did not exist yet, people developed some methods to treat their diseases with their own efforts. These treatment methods consist of empirical applications based on experience and knowledge developed in the light of centuries of experience and transferred from generation to generation. Although it lost its old effect and wide application area with the development of modern medicine, folk medicine still exists today. Aim: Examining the attitudes and behaviors of people towards modern and traditional medicine practices by taking demographic and individual differences as reference during the Covid-19 epidemic. The data set of this study was obtained through a questionnaire applied on 396 individuals living in Erzurum city center in 2021. Reliability Analysis and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (RACFA), Chi-square test, independent sample t test and ANOVA test were used within the scope of the study. Results: As the access to modern medicine increases and the learning styles of generations differ, the application dimension of traditional and complementary medicine (TCM) weakens. On the other hand, the level of satisfaction with modern medicine also changes in parallel with expectations. The significant relationships between the variables in the study findings focus on questions related to modern medicine. A significant relationship was found between the intellectual perspective to traditional and complementary medicine sub-dimension and the presence of people who had Covid-19 in the close circle of the participants. Conclusion: It has been determined that individuals see traditional and complementary medicine as complementary rather than an alternative to modern medicine, and although they have above-average theoretical knowledge, their application aspects are weak. Keywords: Traditional and Complementary Medicine, Folk Medicine, Covid-19, Attitude Analysis

This chapter investigates the attitudes and opinions (perceptions) of 43 language learners (LLs) towards the use of supplementary contextual visuals (SCVs) in a HME for enhancing listening skills as a part of Foreign Language Learning (FLL). Forty-three LLs' attitudes towards the use of SCVs are examined in 3 areas: (1) at the pre-listening stage in preparing for listening texts, (2) with talking-heads video at the while-listening stage, and (3) with audio-only at the post-listening stage. The study is both quantitative and qualitative in nature. The results are analysed with SPSS (i.e. descriptive statistics including frequency, percentage, valid percentages, and cumulative percentages; Spearman test in Bivariate; Chi-square Test in the Crosstabs analysis; Fisher's exact Test). The results reveal that the LLs are in favour of the use of SCVs (a) at the pre-listening stage for preparation, (b) with talking-heads video at the while-listening stage, and (c) with audio-only clips at the post-listening stage. The LLs believe that SCVs could benefit them in a variety of ways that could contribute to the enhancement of their listening. There are also some significant relationships between their perceptions and some independent variables.

Abstract: Pediculosis capitis is an infection of the skin and hair caused by Pediculus humanus var capitis. This disease mainly attacks young children and spreads quickly in a crowded environment and poor hygiene condition. Transmission are mainly through direct contact head-to-head or indirectly such as combs, hair accessories, pillows, veils, etc. Transmission is increasing with several factors inter alia age, sex, frequency of washing hair, sharing towels, beds as well as goods. This study was aimed to assess the relationship between head hygiene and pediculosis capitis among children fostered in Komunitas Dinding at Pasar Bersehati Manado. This was an analytical and observational study with a cross sectional design. Subjects consisted of 30 children, aged 5-15 years, and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were analyzed by using the chi-square test. The results showed that of 30 subjects, 18 children (60%) had pediculosis capitis. The chi-square test showed that washing hair with shampoo per week (p=0.100), sharing towels (p=0.618), and sharing beds (p=0.177) did not have significant relationships with pediculosis capitis meanwhile sharing goods (p=0.002) had a significant relationship with pediculosis capitis. In conclusion, there was a relationship between sharing goods and pediculosis capitis among children fostered in Komunitas Dinding at Pasar Bersehati Manado.Keywords: pediculosis capitis, children, scalp hygiene Abstrak: Pedikulosis kapitis merupakan infeksi kulit dan rambut kepala yang disebabkan oleh Pediculus humanus var capitis.
