Peran Camat Mengoordinasikan Penyelenggaraan Ketenteraman dan Ketertiban Umum di Kecamatan Tampan Kota Pekanbaru Tahun 2014

This research is dilatatar with high number of security and public order disturbances and the number of theft cases that occurred in Kecamatan Tampan 2014. With this background, this research aims to know the Camat's efforts in coordinating the implementation of tranquility and public order in Tampan Direction in 2014 and to know the factors that affect the less optimal role of the Camat in coordinating the effort of organizing peace and public order in Kecamatan Tampan of 2014. The type and method of research used is qualitative research. Location and time of research is done in Kecamatan Tampan in 2014. Technique of collecting data of this research that is by doing interview and documentation equipped with supporting data obtained from mass media. The interview was conducted with Camat Tampan, kasi Trantib, kasi pembangunan masyarakat Kelurahan and Kanit Binmas Polsek Tampan. The results of this study explain that the role of sub-district is less than optimal in the implementation of peace and public order is evidenced by the number of disturbances of security and the highest order in Kecamatan Tampan. While the Camat effort to coordinate the implementation of peace and public order is to conduct coordination meeting of katibmas, coordinate with Sub-District Government, Police sector Tampan, Satpol PP, religious leaders and distribute circular letter to the community, while the factors causing less optimal role of Camat in effort penyenggraan ketentraman and public order is the absence of work plan that leads to activities of peace and public order, the inactivity siskamling existing in Kecamatan Tampan and lack of public participation

Stability of Liquid Rope Coiling

International audienceA thin ‘rope' of viscous fluid falling from a sufficient height coils as it approaches a rigid surface. Here we perform a linear stability analysis of steady coiling, with particular attention to the ‘inertiogravitational' regime in which multiple states with different frequencies exist at a fixed fall height. The basic states analyzed are numerical solutions of asymptotic ‘thin-rope' equations that describe steady coiling. To analyze their stability, we first derive in detail a set of more general equations for the arbitrary time-dependent motion of a thin viscous rope. Linearization of these equations about the steady coiling solutions yields a boundary-eigenvalue problem of order twenty-one which we solve numerically to determine the complex growth rate. The multivalued portion of the curve of steady coiling frequency vs. height comprises alternating stable and unstable segments whose distribution agrees closely with high-resolution laboratory experiments. The dominant balance of (perturbation) forces in the instability is between gravity and the viscous resistance to bending of the rope; inertia is not essential, although it significantly influences the growth rate

Occupational stress among male employees of esfahan steel company, Iran: Prevalence and associated factors

Background: Lack of data on occupational stress among Iranian industrial employees persuaded us to design and conduct this study to evaluate the prevalence and associated parameters of occupational stress among male employees of the Esfahan Steel Company (ESCO), one of the biggest industrial units in Iran. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 400 male employees were sampled from the operational divisions of the company. Socio-demographic data and stress-related variables were entered into a logistic regression to determine significant associated factors of occupational stress among the participants. Results: From all samples, 53 were found as stressful. A monthly salary of less than 600 (OR = 1.88, 95 confidence interval CI = 1.21-2.94), family-related problems (OR = 2.75, 95% CI = 1.22-6.21), work environment (OR = 3.09, 95% CI = 1.78-5.33) and having a second job (OR = 2.68, 95% CI = 1.78-6.78) were significantly associated with the outcome. Conclusions: Attention to some variables, especially economic problems and the work environment of employees, might play a protective role against the prevalence of occupational stress, not only among the employees of ESCO but also among all industrial employees in Iran

The effect of 2 mMol glutamine supplementation on HSP70 and TNF-α release by LPS stimulated blood from healthy children.

OBJECTIVE: Glutamine has been shown to promote heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) release both within experimental in vitro models of sepsis (2-10 mM) and in adults post trauma (0.5 g/kg), although the efficacy varies and is dependent on the model used. The effect of glutamine supplementation on HSP70 release in children is less clear. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of 2 mM glutamine added to incubation media on HSP70 and inflammatory mediator release in an in vitro model of paediatric sepsis using whole blood from healthy paediatric volunteers. METHODS: An in vitro whole blood endotoxin stimulation model using 1 μg/ml lipopolysaccharide (LPS) over a 24 h time period was used to investigate the effects of 2 mM glutamine on HSP70 and inflammatory mediator release in healthy children. RESULTS: The addition of 2 mM glutamine to the incubation media significantly increased HSP70 release over time (p < 0.05). This was associated with an early pro-inflammatory effect on TNF-α release at 4 h (p < 0.005) which was not seen at 24 h. There was a non significant trend towards higher levels of IL-6 and IL-10 following the addition of 2 mM glutamine, which appears to differ from the response reported in adult and animal models. CONCLUSION: Glutamine supplementation of incubation media promotes HSP70 and early TNF- α release in an in vitro model using blood samples from healthy children.This is the author accepted manuscript.

FIRST-line support for Assistance in Breathing in Children (FIRST-ABC): protocol for a multicentre randomised feasibility trial of non-invasive respiratory support in critically ill children.

INTRODUCTION: Over 18 000 children are admitted annually to UK paediatric intensive care units (PICUs), of whom nearly 75% receive respiratory support (invasive and/or non-invasive). Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) has traditionally been used to provide first-line non-invasive respiratory support (NRS) in PICUs; however, high-flow nasal cannula therapy (HFNC), a novel mode of NRS, has recently gained popularity despite the lack of high-quality trial evidence to support its effectiveness. This feasibility study aims to inform the design and conduct of a future definitive randomised clinical trial (RCT) comparing the two modes of respiratory support. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: We will conduct a three-centre randomised feasibility study over 12 months. Patients admitted to participating PICUs who satisfy eligibility criteria will be recruited to either group A (primary respiratory failure) or group B (postextubation). Consent will be obtained from parents/guardians prior to randomisation in 'planned' group B, and deferred in emergency situations (group A and 'rescue' group B). Participants will be randomised (1:1) to either CPAP or HFNC using sealed, opaque envelopes, from a computer-generated randomisation sequence with variable block sizes. The study protocol specifies algorithms for the initiation, maintenance and weaning of HFNC and CPAP. The primary outcomes are related to feasibility, including the number of eligible patients in each group, feasibility of randomising >50% of eligible patients and measures of adherence to the treatment protocols. Data will also be collected on patient outcomes (eg, mortality and length of PICU stay) to inform the selection of an appropriate outcome measure in a future RCT. We aim to recruit 120 patients to the study. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical approval was granted by the National Research Ethics Service Committee North East-Tyne&Wear South (15/NE/0296). Study findings will be disseminated through peer-reviewed journals, national and international conferences. TRIALS REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT02612415; pre-results

Model for coiling and meandering instability of viscous threads

A numerical model is presented to describe both the transient and steady-state dynamics of viscous threads falling onto a plane. The steady-state coiling frequency w is calculated as a function of fall height H. In the case of weak gravity, w ~ H^{-1} and w ~ H are obtained for lower and higher fall heights respectively. When the effect of gravity is significant, the relation w ~ H^2 is observed. These results agree with the scaling laws previously predicted. The critical Reynolds number for coil-uncoil transition is discussed. When the gravity is weak, the transition occurs with hysteresis effects. If the plane moves horizontally at a constant speed, a variety of meandering oscillation modes can be observed experimentally. The present model also can describe this phenomenon. The numerically obtained state diagram for the meandering modes qualitatively agrees with the experiment.Comment: 12 pages, 10 figure

Identifying mutations in Tunisian families with retinal dystrophy.

Retinal dystrophies (RD) are a rare genetic disorder with high genetic heterogeneity. This study aimed at identifying disease-causing variants in fifteen consanguineous Tunisian families. Full ophthalmic examination was performed. Index patients were subjected to IROme analysis or whole exome sequencing followed by homozygosity mapping. All detected variations were confirmed by direct Sanger sequencing. Mutation analysis in our patients revealed two compound heterozygous mutations p.(R91W);(V172D) in RPE65, and five novel homozygous mutations: p.R765C in CNGB1, p.H337R in PDE6B, splice site variant c.1129-2A &gt; G and c.678_681delGAAG in FAM161A and c.1133 + 3_1133 + 6delAAGT in CERKL. The latter mutation impacts pre-mRNA splicing of CERKL. The other changes detected were six previously reported mutations in CNGB3 (p.R203*), ABCA4 (p.W782*), NR2E3 (p.R311Q), RPE65 (p.H182Y), PROM1 (c.1354dupT) and EYS (c.5928-2A &gt; G). Segregation analysis in each family showed that all affected individuals were homozygotes and unaffected individuals were either heterozygote carriers or homozygous wild type allele. These results confirm the involvement of a large number of genes in RD in the Tunisian population
