Scanning Mechanism

The current Research aims at figuring out relationships between performance (as measured by ROE and PM) and demographics, interest in scanning, kinds of scanning, scanning frequency, sources of scanning (impersonal and personal), and obstacles of scanning. Experiences of 292 UAE executives have been used to fulfill these objectives. Via SPSS package release ten and seventeen, multivariate analysis (e.g. Multiple Regression), bivariate analysis (e.g. WSRT), and univariate analysis (e.g. descriptive analysis like mean, percentage, and sum) were conducted to explore the network of relationships amongst variables. Significant relationships between performance (as measured ROE) and interest in scanning, scanning frequency, sources of scanning (impersonal), and obstacles of scanning are existed. Significant relationships between performance (as measured by PM) and interest in scanning, scanning frequency, sources of scanning (personal), and sources of scanning (impersonal) are also existed. Finally, the current study revealed that UAE businesses are conducting regular, proactive, and hoc scanning more often than irregular, reactive, and primitive scanning.

Sehezar area is located in southern Tonokabon in Mazandaran province, north of Iran, near the Tarom &ndash; Hashdtjin belt. The existence of granitoid masses in the region can be important in terms of the potential of mineralization. Geochemical anomaly separation from the background is one of the important steps in mineral exploration. In the past decades, geochemical anomalies have been identified by means of various methods. Some of these separation methods include: statistical analysis methods (like univariate, bivariate, multivariate statistics), spatial statistical methods and fractal and multi-fractal methods. To identify the anomalous area, 71 stream sediment samples were collected from the area and analyzed by the ICP-MS method, and then interpreted. Initially, data were normalized and afterwards, univariate analysis (threshold limit and screening (P.N) methods) was used, in which results of the probable and definite anomaly of the threshold method were confirmed by the P.N screening method. Finally, the maps of the anomal zones were drawn. Then, bivariate analysis (Pearson correlation coefficients) and multivariate analysis on normal data were performed on SPSS software, in which factor analysis and cluster analysis were used for multivariate analysis. As a result of using the factor analysis method, six factors were identified and factor maps were drawn by the Surfer software. Also, by using cluster analysis, the variables were divided into two groups. In order for a better separation of the geochemical anomaly from the background, in addition to the threshold method, the Concentration - Area fractal method was used. Here, the fractal geometry using full-logarithmic graphs of the Concentration - Area obtained is capable of separating the stairs of different sections (background, threshold, and anomaly) with respect to the angle coefficient of the Concentration - Area plot. Then, in conclusion, results of these methods were compared and investigated, and finally, the anomalies area maps of the Au, Ag, Cu, Fe, W elements were drawn by Concentration - Area fractal and threshold methods and anomalous zones were introduced.

This study assessed National Intramural-Recreational Sports Association (NIRSA) members' perceptions of effectiveness in a sport association. Specifically, this study investigated the extent to which professional members of the NIRSA perceive it to be effective in achieving its stated and operative goals. A stratified systematic sample of professional NIRSA members ( N = 600) was selected to complete the survey. The survey was sent to NIRSA members who had 1 through 4 years of membership, 5 through 9 years of membership, and 10 or more years of membership in the association. Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was used to compare perceptions of organizational effectiveness among the membership groups. No significant differences were found between the three membership groups and satisfaction. Correlations and multiple regression analyses were conducted to determine the relationships between stated and operative goal effectiveness and satisfaction. Significant relationships were confirmed between satisfaction and several stated and operative goal factors.

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To identify the factors that interfere with the access of adolescents and young people to childbirth care for in the Northeast region of Brazil. METHODS Cross-sectional study with 3,014 adolescents and young people admitted to the selected maternity wards to give birth in the Northeast region of Brazil. The sample design was probabilistic, in two stages: the first corresponded to the health establishments and the second to women who had recently given birth and their babies. The data was collected by means of interviews and consulting the hospital records, from pre-tested electronic form. Descriptive statistics were used for the univariate analysis, Pearson’s Chi-square test for the bivariate analysis and multiple logistic regressions for the multivariate analysis. Sociodemographic variables, obstetrical history, and birth care were analyzed. RESULTS Half of the adolescents and young people interviewed had not been given guidance on the location that they should go to when in labor, and among those who had, 23.5% did not give birth in the indicated health service. Furthermore, one third (33.3%) had to travel in search of assisted birth, and the majority (66.7%) of the postpartum women came to maternity by their own means. In the bivariate analysis, the variables marital status, paid work, health insurance, number of previous pregnancies, parity, city location, and type of health establishment showed a significant association (p < 0.20) with inadequate access to childbirth care. The multivariate analysis showed that married adolescents and young people (p < 0.015), with no health insurance (p < 0.002) and from the countryside (p < 0.001) were more likely to have inadequate access to childbirth care. CONCLUSIONS Adolescents and young women, married, without health insurance, and from the countryside are more likely to have inadequate access to birth care. The articulation between outpatient care and birth care can improve this access and, consequently, minimize the maternal and fetal risks that arise from a lack of systematic hospitalization planning.

INTRODUCTION: Underweight is one of the most common forms of undernutrition suffered by children and has implications for both short and long term health problems. Characteristics of children, parents, and environment are factors affecting underweight in children, especially aged 24–59 months. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to find out the dominant factors affecting underweight in children aged 24–59 months in Java Island. METHODS: This cross-sectional study used secondary data from Indonesia Family Life Survey (IFLS) 2014. There were 1,270 children aged 24–59 months who were involved in this study. We conducted univariate analysis, bivariate analysis using chi-square, and multivariate analysis using binary logistic regression. RESULTS: This study found that 20.2% of children in Java were underweight. Based on bivariate analysis, variables that significantly associated (p <  0.05) with underweight were low birth weight (LBW), acute respiratory infection (ARI), diarrhoea, frequency of eating milk and dairy products, parental education level, and underweight father. Furthermore, based on multivariate analysis, low consumption of milk and dairy products was the dominant factor in this study (OR = 1.80). CONCLUSION: Factors related to underweight can be used to determine appropriate prevention and treatment in community levels, such as by promoting a balanced nutrition program and healthy behaviour.

Abstract Nutritional status can be interpreted as a health status produced by a balance between nutritional needs and input. Nutritional status is largely determined by the availability of nutrients in sufficient quantities and in the right combination of time at the body cell level to develop and function normally. The purpose of this research is to know the relationship between exclusive breastfeeding and nutritional status of children aged 6-24 months in the working area of ​​Benteng Puskesmas, Indragiri Hilir Regency in 2019. This research is an observational analytic quantitative with the type of analytical cross section study. This research was conducted from June to July 2019. Data analysis was carried out in stages including univariate analysis, bivariate analysis and multivariate analysis. The sampling procedure is done by Purposive Sampling with Quota Sampling with a sample size of 220 toddlers. The results of multivariate analysis, the most influential variable was exclusive breastfeeding (POR = 5.263, 95% CI = 2.519-10.994) .. Education (POR = 4.146, 95% CI = 2.031-8.463). Family income (POR = 2,190, 95% CI = 1,068-4,491). The conclusion in this study is that exclusive breastfeeding, education, and income are related to nutritional status. It is expected that mothers who have toddlers to better understand and improve information and knowledge about exclusive breastfeeding and also about nutrition and nutrition for children aged 6-24 months.

ABSTRACTThe maternal mortality ratio (MMR) in Indonesia remains high, i.e approximately 359 per 100.000 life birth (IDHS 2012). MMR is an indicator of mother’s health, especially the risk of being death for a mother while pregnant and delivery. Mostly the majority of maternal mortality (MMR) is occurring in the first two days after delivery and care after giving birth services required to manage complication. Sidoarjo regency has high postpartum maternal mortality case, so it is necessary to study determinants influencing postpartum maternal mortality in that regency. This research aimed to analyze the determinants that influence postpartum maternal mortality. This research was an observational research using case control study. Number of samples was 21 cases and 43 controls. Data were analyzed by univariate analysis, bivariate analysis with chi-square test, and multivariate analysis with multiple logistic regressions. The result showed that the determinants which influence postpartum maternal mortality according to multivariate analysis were pre-eclampsia/eclampsia (OR = 20,98; 95%CI : 2,250 – 323,416; p = 0,008) and delivery complication (OR = 5,47; 95%CI : 1,356 – 22,022; p = 0,017). Probability of mother to have risk of postpartum maternal mortality with all those risk factors above was 92,9%. This research recommended are need to detect early sign of pregnancy, delivery, and post delivery complication, especially danger sign of pre-eclampsia/eclampsia, referral preparation, and pregnancy planning. Keywords :  postpartum maternal mortality, determinants, pre-                                     eclampsia/eclampsia, delivery complication.

Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) is a bulge or protrusion of pelvic organs and related segments into or through the vagina. Disturbances in sexual function rarely complained, but from the literature it is known that patients with stage 3–4 prolapse associated with difficulty in achieving an orgasm. This study aims to determine the prevalence of sexual dysfunction in patients with POP and factors associated with sexual dysfunction among them. A cross-sectional design was conducted in Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo and Fatmawati Hospital Jakarta. All patients who met the inclusion criteria of POP filled out a questionnaire of sexual function index (FSFI-19), then performed univariate analysis of data on the characteristics of the data subject, and bivariate and multivariate analysis to know the relationship between the dependent and independent variables. Of the 82 data, the prevalence of sexual dysfunction in patients with POP reached 57.3%. While most of the patients had experienced menopause POP also with a prevalence of 76.8%. The prevalence of sexual dysfunction in patients who were menopausal POP by 66.7%. From the results of the bivariate analysis, age, menopause, obesity and stage of prolapse were a significant risk factor on the incidence of sexual dysfunction in patients with POP. The variables of age, smoking, menopause, obesity and stage of prolapse, p < 0.25 to be included in the multivariate analysis. From the multivariate analysis, the variables associated with the incidence of sexual dysfunction in patients with POP were age >60 by OR 8 (IK95 2,45–26.12), and obesity (BMI 30 kg/m2) with an OR of 0.30 (CI 95 0.09 to 0.98). Advanced age and obesity are associated with the incidence of sexual dysfunction in patients with POP.
