Falling is one thing that cannot be avoided by everyone, especially the elderly who are affected by a decrease in muscle strength which is one of the factors for falling. The purpose of this study is to early detect the risk of falling in the elderly using the BBS (Berg Balance Scale) questionnaire and find out the age group of the elderly who are prone to experiencing high falling risks. The method used in this study is descriptive research with sampling techniques using purposive. The risk of falling is measured using a BBS (Berg Balance Scale) observation sheet. The results showed that respondents aged 60-74 years with a total of 77 people included in the low fall risk category, there were 64 elderly (83.1%), medium fall risk 12 elderly (15.6%) and respondents with a high risk of falling 1 elderly (1.3%). The conclusion of this study is that as you get older, especially 66 years old and above, the risk of falling will also increase, so it takes awareness of yourself and your family to pay attention to each other to be able to avoid falling.
Choosing a code when interacting is one of the opportunities that a bilingual has. Code-switching is usually used by bilinguals when interacting with the other person. This study tries to find the types of code-switching and the categories of reasons for using code-switching in lecturer- students’ interactions in thesis exams. This research used a qualitative method with a case study approach. The data was in the form of utterances obtained from recorded interactions of five thesis examination sessions in the English undergraduate program at Syiah Kuala University. The data was analyzed through several processes, including transcribing, data condensation, identifying, marking, grouping, displaying data, and making inferences. The data was analyzed using the theory proposed by Stockwell and Hoffman. From the analysis, it was found that there are three types of code-switching, namely tag switching, inter-sentential, and intra-sentential. Related to the categories of reasons for using code-switching, the researcher found 5 from 7 reasons to do code-switching in lecturer-students’ interaction in thesis examination. The researcher hoped that the next researcher will further analyze the code-switching that occurs in the thesis exam, not only analyzing the types of code-switching and the reasons for using code-switching, but also analyzing the other side of linguistics.
This study aims to see changes in GDS values in athletes to prevent doping use. This study uses quasi-experimental research with a one-group pre-test-post-test design. The results showed that the shift in GDS values in futsal players decreased by an average of 5 mg/dl, in swimmers, the standard decreased by 8 mg/dl, 100 M runners decreased by an average of 4 mg/dl, and the average value decreased in GDS values. On mobile legend e-sport players, only 1 mg/dl. In conclusion, the types of sports that experienced the most decrease in GDS occurred swimming, then futsal, 100 M running, and e-sports players. Blood glucose values will decrease more and more if a person does activities with more use of body movement. Cold temperatures will increase the body's ability to produce energy which will maintain body temperature within normal limits. Keywords: Doping, Blood Glucose During (GDS), Athlete
This study aims to determine the climbers' understanding of AMS and the incidence of AMS that has been experienced while climbing. This research method is quantitative research with a cross-sectional study approach. The results of this study indicate the level of knowledge of 128 respondents (85.3%) in the excellent category. The incidence of AMS in most climbers experienced mild AMS among as many as 86 respondents (57.30%). In conclusion, there is no relationship between knowledge and AMS incidence in mountaineering students in Makassar City. Keywords: Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS), Climber, Knowledge
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
