Background: Surgical mortality data are collected routinely in high-income countries, yet virtually no low-or middle-income countries have outcome surveillance in place. The aim was prospectively to collect worldwide mortality data following emergency abdominal surgery, comparing findings across countries with a low, middle or high Human Development Index (HDI).Methods: This was a prospective, multicentre, cohort study. Self-selected hospitals performing emergency surgery submitted prespecified data for consecutive patients from at least one 2-week interval during July to December 2014. Postoperative mortality was analysed by hierarchical multivariable logistic regression.

Hypertension is a major health problem. High prevalence of hypertension contributes to an increase risk of cardiovascular disease which is the first cause of death in the world. In relation to students, they also have risk, such as smoking, consuming alcohol, consuming coffee, stress, consuming high-salt foods, lack of exercise and obesity, so the students have risk factors of hypertension. The aim of this study was to identify modifiable risk factors of hypertension among the undergraduate students of Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta (UMY). This research used descriptive research method. The sample of this research was 398 students chosen through random sampling method. The data were collected through questionnaire regarding information on stress high natrium diet, exercise habit, alcohol consumption and smoking behavior. The data analysis was done by using frequency distribution program. The results show that the respondents have at risk in hypertension for obesity (10.1%), smoking behavior (19.1%), alcohol consumption (1.8%), coffee consumption (34.4%), excessive salt food consumption (81.4%), stress (81.2%), and exercise habits (74.4%).

Korean popular music, or broadly known as K-Pop, is the most noticeable example of hallyu-wave products. Actors, actresses, soloists, duos, and groups consisting of several members are considered as K-Pop performers. In Korea, such performers are popular by the term “idol”. Those who idolize a particular idol, whether it is soloist or group, often join a fans-club called “fandom”. Teenagers as common members of fandom will identify and try to behave in similar way to their idols. Looking at that phenomenon, this study aims to find the motive behind K-Popers “SHINee World Indonesia” fanaticism of a Korean boy band, SHINee.This study applies qualitative method, a research method which is defined as an attempt to get a better understanding regarding the complexity of human interaction. It results in several keywords of qualitative research: process, understanding, complexity, interaction, and human. The researchers adopt qualitative method with phenomenology approach, due to the fact that the research object is closely related to the motive behind K-popers fanatics and their imitative behavior. The researchers realize that the motive and imitative behavior of K-Popers fanatics are processed within themselves, not by the visible behaviors in the outside.This phenomenology research tries to gain knowledge regarding how an early fan constructs the important meaning and concepts in inter-subjectivity frame. Fanaticism process is triggered by a motive which is divided into four reasons: (1) generating interest, (2) knowledge, (3) satisfaction, and (4) absorbing “SHINee” as a part of fanaticism lifestyles.

Brain activity can be detected through the electric signals it produces. One of the benefits of detecting electric signals in the brain is to measure a person’s sleep quality. Sleep quality can be influenced by stimuli received by the brain before going to bed. One form of stimulus that can be accepted is in the form of suggestions, both direct and indirect suggestions. In this study, the two conditions of the stimulus suggestion will be tested to describe the effect on the electrical signals of the human brain.Based on the results of the analysis it can be described that the stimulus can increase sleep efficiency. Giving influential suggestions to reduce sleep latency and increase the depth of sleep. The stronger the suggestion, the more sleep you will deepen. Suggestions can make sleep deeper and reduce sleep latency. The deeper the level of sleep and the less sleep latency show the better the efficiency of sleep. The better the efficiency of sleep shows the better the quality of sleep.
