"Since their first application in 1982, Totally Implantable Venous Access Devices (TIVADs) have become increasingly important in the clinical practice, as more intensive chemotherapy and parenteral treatments have come into use. At this time, there is objective evidence that TIVADs are a safe, effective strategy for long-term venous access; they play a significant role throughout the management of the oncology patient, as they are needed in the initial phases for active treatments as well as in the last stages for palliative measures, making possible repeated administration of chemotherapeutic vesicant agents, nutrients, antibiotics, analgesics, and blood products. According to a number of prospective studies, use of TIVADs is associated with a significant complication rate (10% to 25% of all patients). Evidence-based data support that most complications are directly related to inappropriate technique of placement and/or nursing care, sometimes leading to TIVAD loss, significant morbidity, increased duration of hospitalization, and additional medical cost."

"ABSTRACTBackground: resistive index (RI) is highly utilised to assess the graft function using Doppler ultrasonography. The RI has been shown as the best ultrasound parameter to assess kidney allograft dysfunction. Several studies have established the role of the RI as a predictor of transplant failure. However, these studies were using RI measurement in the later stages post transplantation. The present study has conducted to identify the association between early RI measurement and early graft function represented as delayed graft function (DGF) and immediate graft function (IGF), as well as long-term graft survival. Methods: an evidence based clinical review of studies published before May 2018 was conducted from Medline, Science Direct, EMBASE and Cochrane databases. Studies on early measurement of RI whereby the primary or secondary goals of the study related to graft function and/or graft survival were included. Studies using late RI measurement and without RI value groups were excluded. The Mantzel Haenzel method was used to analyse pooled risk ratio and 95% confidence interval, while the heterogeneity of the study was calculated through I2 value. Data analysis was performed using Review Manager 5.3. Results: nine studies with a total of 1802 patients who had undergone a kidney transplant were analysed. DGF was found in 19% (193/1015) of the low RI group and in 42.8% (337/787) of the high RI group (RR 2.04 (95% CI 1.72 - 2.41), p < 0.00001, I2 = 28%). IGF was found in 39.5% (62/157) of the low RI group and in 10.5% (28/268) of the high RI group (RR 0.26 (95% CI 0.17 0.40), p < 0.00001, I2 = 0%). Long term graft survival, with follow up between 60 144 months, was found in 83% (701/845) of the low RI group and in 69.4% (395/569) of the high RI group (RR 0.82 (95% CI 0.72 0.93), p = 0.002, I2 = 63%). Conclusion: the results of this study emphasise the association between early measurement of RI and early graft function, and longterm graft survival. An elevated RI provides the chance of recognizing the patients with poor longterm prognosis, from the first moment after kidney transplant."

"Indonesia terus mengalami perkembangan yang dinamis. Indonesia merupakan negara ke 4 penduduk terbanyak di dunia yaitu 275 juta jiwa. Keluarga Berencana adalah upaya pengendalian jumlah anak yang dilahirkan, jarak dan umur lahir yang ideal. Metode Kontrasepsi Jangka Panjang (MKJP) merupakan metode yang dinilai paling efektif mencegah kehamilan. Angka penggunaan metode kontrasepsi jangka panjang (MKJP) di Indonesia pada tahun 2017 sebesar 13,4%. Provinsi Banten memiliki tingkat kesertaan MKJP terendah sebesar 7,4% diikuti oleh provinsi Aceh 7,7%. Beberapa provinsi juga mengalami penurunan penggunaan MKJP, seperti provinsi riau pada tahun 2017 8,3% sedangkan tahun 2012 sebesar 8,5%, Provinsi Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta tahun 2017 18,6% pada tahun 2012 21,1%. Media informasi kesehatan adalah untuk meningkatkan kesadaran akan suatu penyebab atau topik dengan menyebarkan data dan informasi yang relevan kepada khalayak luas. Penggunaan internet di rumah mencapai 78,18% pada tahun 2020. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui hubungan akses media informasi dengan penggunaan metode kontrasepsi jangka panjangpada wanita usia subur di Indonesia. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain cross sectional dengan sampel wanita usia subur berstatus kawin dan menggunakan metode kontrasepsi jangka panjang yang terpilih menjadi responden dalam SDKI tahun 2017 serta memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi sebanyak 18.263 responden. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ada hubungan antara akses media informasi dengan penggunaan metode kontrasepsi jangka panjang (p value <0,001). Wanita usia subur yang akses media informasi sebanyak 3.188 responden (25,5%) memiliki kemungkinan untuk menggunakan MKJP 1,2 kali (95% CI: 1,1-1,8) lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan wanita usia subur yang tidak akses media informasi.

Indonesia continues to experience dynamic development. Indonesia is the 4th most populous country in the world, namely 275 million people. Family planning is an effort to control the number of children born, spacing and ideal birth ages. The Long Term Contraceptive Method (MKJP) is the method that is considered the most effective in preventing pregnancy. The rate of use of long-term contraceptive methods (MKJP) in Indonesia in 2017 was 13.4%. Banten province has the lowest MKJP participation rate at 7.4% followed by Aceh province at 7.7%. Several provinces also experienced a decrease in the use of MKJP, such as Riau Province in 2017 8.3% while in 2012 it was 8.5%, Yogyakarta Special Region Province in 2017 18.6% and in 2012 21.1%. Health information media is to increase awareness of a cause or topic by disseminating relevant data and information to a wide audience. Internet use at home reached 78.18% in 2020. The aim of this research was to determine the relationship between access to information media and the use of long-term contraception methods among women of childbearing age in Indonesia. This study used a cross-sectional design with a sample of women of reproductive age who were married and used long-term contraceptive methods who were selected as respondents in the 2017 IDHS and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria of 18,263 respondents. The research results show that there is a relationship between access to information media and the use of long-term contraceptive methods (p value <0.001). Women of childbearing age who had access to information media as many as 3,188 respondents (25.5%) were 1.2 times more likely to use MKJP (95% CI: 1.1-1.8) compared to women of childbearing age who did not have access to information media."

"In 3 experiments, kindergarten and second-grade children's retention was examined in the context of 2 distinctiveness manipulations, namely, the von Restorff and bizarre imagery paradigms. Specifically, children learned lists of pictures (Experiments la and lb) or interactive images (Experiment 2) and were asked to recall them 3 weeks later. In Experiments la and lb, distinctiveness was manipulated perceptually (changing colors) and conceptually (changing categories or switching to a numeral), whereas in Experiment 2, distinctiveness concerned the interaction (common or bizarre) between the referents. The results showed that (a) older children retained more information than younger children, (b) younger but not older children failed to benefit from numerically distinct information, and (c) distinctiveness in other domains facilitated children's retention. These results highlight the importance of distinctive information in children's retention"
