Path Analysis of Sociodemography Determinants, Sexual Behavior, and HIV Status in Sragen, Central Java

Background: HIV/ AIDS is a global pro­blem, including Indonesia. HIV/ AIDS sufferers in Sragen Regency have increased every year. Sociodemographic factors and the many places as hosts for sexual behavior are the causes of HIV cases that cannot be sup­pressed. The pur­pose of this study was to determine the deter­minants of sociodemography, sexual behavior and HIV status. Subjects and Method: This was a cross sectional study conducted in Sragen Regency, Central Java, from August to December 2018. The sample consisted of 200 residents who did VCT. The sampling technique chosen was fixed disease sampling. The dependent was HIV status. The independent variables were occupa­tion, knowledge of sexual partner HIV status, social support, sexual behavior and locus of control. Data were collected using a question­naire and analyzed using path analysis. Results: HIV risk increased directly with risky work (b= 7.5; 95% CI= 0.79 - 1.42; p= 0.029), risky sexual behavior (b= 0.48; 95% CI= -0.63 - 1.73; p = 0.405 ), and sexual partners who did not know the HIV status of their sexual part­ners (b= 0.48; 95% CI= -0.63 to 1.73; p= 0.405). HIV risk is indirectly influenced by locus of control, social support, occupation, and sexual partners who do not know the HIV status of their sexual partners through sexual behavior. Conclusion: HIV status is directly influenced by occupation, sexual behavior and knowledge of sexual partners' HIV status, as well as indirectly by locus of control, social support, occupation and knowledge of sexual partners HIV status through sexual behavior.

Non-invasive detection of epithelial mesenchymal transition phenotype and metastatic dissemination of lung cancer by liquid biopsy

The occurrence of phenotype switch from an epithelial to a mesenchymal cell state during the activation of the epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) program in cancer cells has been closely associated with the generation of invasive tumor cells that contribute to metastatic dissemination and treatment failure. Liquid biopsy represents an emergent non-invasive tool that may improve our understanding of the molecular events leading to cancer progression and initiating the metastatic cascade through the dynamic analysis of tumor-derived components isolated from body fluids. The present review will primarily focus on the applications of liquid biopsy in lung cancer patients for identifying EMT signature, elucidating molecular mechanisms underlying the acquisition of an invasive phenotype and detecting new targets for therapy.

Comparing reproductive tract morphology between closely related species may reveal mechanisms and processes of reproductive isolation mainly associated to evolutionary divergence. Although the reproductive tract of amphisbaenians has been qualitatively described for some species, interspecific variation associated with mechanical reproductive isolation has been poorly investigated through clearly defined hypotheses. Interspecific differences in reproductive tract may be particularly interesting in amphisbaenians, because fossoriality has caused bilateral asymmetry in internal organs. In this study we compared reproductive tract morphology between two closely related Amphisbaenidae species (Amphisbaena anaemariae and A. silvestrii). We used multivariate approaches to test the general hypothesis that interspecific divergence in nine variables that quantify the reproductive tract explain mechanisms and processes of reproductive isolation associated with evolutionary divergence. Our hypothesis testing was focused on investigating levels of sex-dependence and bilateral asymmetry on interspecific reproductive divergence. We found bilateral asymmetry in most of the variables measured, and sex-dependent morphology of the reproductive tract in both sexes, despite this finding was less evident in females. Our results are mainly associated with a combination of evolutionary forces acting on bilateral asymmetry and sexdependent dispersal. Ultimately, this study provides insights into evolutionary processes based on reproductive isolation mechanisms in organisms for which sampling is hindered by fossoriality.
Destination management and sustainable tourism de- velopment through the common lens of the Commons

This study combines three interconnected streams in tourism literature: analysis of the utilisation of common pool resources (CPR) in tourism, studies on sustainable tourism development and theoretical contributions to the articulation of roles, missions and strategies of a destination management organisation (DMO). Starting from an integrative literature review, our aim is to explore the symbiotic relationships between these approaches in order to design a conceptual framework for opening new research opportunities. The operational application of such a conceptual model depends on the resources of each destination, the type of tourism dynamics observed, the specific stakeholders involved and the power balance between them. Our objective is to define and to discuss the critical conditions for the integration of sustainable development principles into the strategic role of a DMO through the management of CPR via participatory processes of destination management. An exploratory illustration of this framework for the rural destination of Kushiro-Akan (Hokkaido, Japan) is presented. Policy and managerial implications as well as the needs for further research are discussed.
The impact of high maternal body mass index on obstetric and perinatal outcomes

The incidence of obesity has increased to pandemic proportions over the last 20 years. The incidence is higher in females than males according to the World Health Organization (WHO). In 2016, more than 1.9 billion adults, 18 years and older, were overweight. Of these over 650 million were obese. In 2016, 39% of adults aged 18 years and above were overweight and 13% were obese. A lifestyle changing towards sedentary has been attributed to increased incidence of obesity in women. According to National Family Health Survey (NFHS)-4 (2015-16), the percentage of women aged 15-49 years who were overweight or obese in India was 20.7% and in Odisha was 16.5%.
Maternal and Fetal Outcome of Pregnancies Complicated with Hypertension in a Tertiary Care Hospital in Eastern Nepal

A cross sectional study was conducted between March 2011 and August 2011 at B. P. Koirala Institute of Health Sciences (BPKIHS). All women delivering at BPKIHS whose pregnancies were complicated by hypertensive disorders were identified. Their demographic profile including age, parity, clinical presentation, laboratory investigations, mode of delivery, requirement of drug therapy, maternal complications, birth outcome and blood pressure at discharge was noted. The patients were followed up over the next 6 months for their delivery in the hospital and their outcomes ascertained. Objectives: To study maternal and fetal morbidities and mortality in patients with hypertensive disorders in pregnancy. Study Design: Descriptive cross sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, B. P. Koirala institute of health sciences (BPKIHS) between March 2011 to August 2011. Original Research Article Joshi et al.; ARJGO, 3(4): 32-38, 2020; Article no.ARJGO. 59008 33 Materials and Methods: All pregnant patients with hypertension admitted during the study period were enrolled in the study and followed up till delivery. Clinical and laboratory parameters were used to stratify the type of hypertension. Maternal outcome identified were pulmonary edema, acute renal failure, HELLP(hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, low platelet), ascites, DIC(disseminated intravascular coagulation),seizures, PPH(postpartum hemorrhage), abruptio and death. Fetal outcomes studied were birth weight, presence of IUGR, 5min Apgar score, ante or intrapartum death and admission to ICU or neonatal ward. Results: 2.4% of total deliveries were complicated by hypertension. There were 36.5% of patients with non-severe /mild preeclampsia, 53.1% severe preeclampsia and 10.4% gestational hypertension. It was seen that 45% of the patients needed induction of labour. 46.9% of patients delivered vaginally while 44.8% underwent cesarean section. The maternal complications found were as follows: 21.9% patients had ascites, 15.6% seizures, 13.5% postpartum hemorrhage, 7.3% abruption, 4.2% each had acute renal failure and acute pulmonary edema, 2.1% HELLP syndrome and 1% DIC. There was significant association between the complications like ascites, postpartum hemorrhage seizures and abruption and the severity of hypertension. Among the total deliveries, 40.6% were preterm and 50% were low birth weight. 21.9% were small for gestational age. The 5 minute Apgar score was more than 7 for 77.9% of the babies.11. 5% babies had ante/intrapartum death. 4.8% of the babies were admitted in the intensive care unit and 23.1% were admitted in the pediatric ward. Conclusion: Hypertensive disorders in pregnancy are associated with significant maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality and hence deserve due concern in obstetric practice.
Prevalence of Burning Mouth Syndrome in four Dental Schools in Tehran

Statement of the problem: Burning Mouth Syndrome (BMS) is a condition presented with burning sensation without any pathologic changes of oral mucosa. Since there are no accurate diagnostic criteria and because symptoms are so variable the studies have shown different prevalence. Limited studies have been performed to estimate prevalence, of BMS in Iran and worldwide. Purpose: This research was conducted among Iranian patients to four dental schools in the City of Tehran in 2007. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out on 650 patients, 269 men and 381 women (originally Iranian) attending four dental schools in Tehran: Shahed, Shahid Beheshti, Tehran and Islamic Azad University in 2007. The sampling method was non-randomized as all the patients attending the four oral medicine departments on a certain period were included in this study. A questionnaire was designed to collect data on demographic characteristics, medical history and drugs taken by the patients. Results: Patients’ age ranged from 11 81 years (mean 35.63± 12.98). Totally, 9 patients had burning mouth without any underlying oral lesion. Conclusion: Burning Mouth Syndrome in the Iranian population has low prevalence and is more frequent in females. Furthermore, it is associated with xerostomia and taking medications.
Phenotypic Detection of Beta-lactamases among Proteus mirabilis, Enterobacter cloacae, and Citrobacter freundii Isolates from Urinary Samples in Gorgan, Northeast Iran

Introduction: The data on members of the genera Proteus , Pseudomonas , Enterobacter , Citrobacter, and Staphylococcus as the etiologic agents of urinary tract infections (UTIs) is not much. This study investigated the frequency of various beta-lactamases in urine isolates of Proteus mirabilis , Enterobacter cloacae, and Citrobacter freundii in Gorgan, Golestan province. Methods: A total of 632 urine samples were collected from hospitalized patients in a teaching hospital. The samples were cultured on blood agar and Eosin Methylene blue agar and incubated overnight at 37°C. The cultures with a ≥105 CFU/mL bacterial count were defined as positive for UTI. Bacteria identification was performed using standard biochemical methods and the API20E enteric identification system. The antibiotic resistance pattern was determined by the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method, and a phenotypic confirmatory test was used for detecting ESBL, MBL, and AmpC beta-lactamases producers. Results: Out of 632 samples, 317 (50.1%) were positive for UTIs, and 27 (8.5%), 21 (6.6%), and 12 (3.7%) were positive for Enterobacter cloacae , Citrobacter freundii, and Proteus mirabilis isolates, respectively. All the isolates were sensitive to piperacillin-tazobactam and colistin. The prevalence of ESBL and AmpC beta-lactamases in P. mirabilis isolates was higher than the other isolates, but No MBL producers were detected. Conclusions: In this study, the high frequency of ESBL and AmpC beta-lactamases in P. mirabilis isolates may suggest an increasing trend in resistance to cephalosporins and monobactams, which could have a significant impact on the management and treatment of UTI caused by this organism. Therefore, continuous monitoring is required to control the spread of β-lactamase-producing isolates in different geographical areas.
Bio-active Compounds (Curcumin, Allicin and Gingerol) of Common Spices used in Indian and South-east Asian Countries Might Protect against COVID-19 Infection: A Short Review

Presently, our world is suffering with COVID-19 caused by novel coronavirus SARS- CoV-2. The high rate of mutation in SARS- CoV-2 helps viruses to become resistance against pre-existent anti-viral medications. Currently, there are no effective therapeutic strategies against COVID-19 infection except some vaccines. Curcumin, Allicin and Gingerol are natural bioactive compounds having anti-viral, anti-inflamatory, anti-pyretic, anti-fibrotic properties and were used as spices in food in South East Asian and Indian subcontinent that could be a potential treatment for COVID-19 disease. This review will help in understanding the biology and potential of bioactive compounds present in turmeric, garlic and ginger as therapeutic against COVID-19 infection. Computational study suggested that gingerol, curcumin, and allicin showed good interaction with proteins of SARS-CoV-2 and ACE2 receptor of host cell and might have an important role in impeding SARS-CoV-2 replication. Clinical trials have been conducted for nanocurcumin and gingerol. The fatality rate of people from South East Asia and Indian subcontinent eating highly spicy food is less as compared to people from America and Europe eating less spicy food. Further, this review will help people to do research on curcumin, allicin and gingerol against the treatment of COVID-19. All of the spices are commercially available, edible and might be used as precautionary home remedies against COVID-19.
Analysis of trace-elements and toxic heavy metals in honeys from Tlemcen Province, north-western Algeria

Eighteen honeys collected from various botanical and geographical sources in Tlemcen Province (north-western Algeria) were studied to determine the presence of the following fifteen trace elements and heavy metals: K, Na, Ca, Mg, Mn, Cu, Fe, Zn, V, Cr, Co, As, Cd, Pb and W. Element determination was performed by inductively coupled plasmamass spectrometry (ICP-MS), after digestion, by concentrated nitric acid using microwave mineralizer. The most abundant minerals were K, Ca, Mg and Na ranging within 153-989 mg/kg, 33.1-377 mg/kg, 69.1-162 mg/kg and 13.3-146 mg/kg, respectively. Fe was the most abundant heavy metal followed by Mn, Zn and Cu while Cr, Co, V, W, As, Cd and Pb were the lowest trace elements detected at level < 1 mg/kg in the honey samples surveyed. The variation in the mineral content in the honey samples studied is probably due to geochemical and geographical differences. Multivariate methods were used in order to classify honey samples according to their mineral content. The present study revealed that honeys collected from the various beekeepers apiaries of Tlemcen Province were not contaminated with toxic trace elements and therefore poses no threat to consumers.
Evaluation of Bovine Derived Xenograft Combined with Bioresorbable Collagen Membrane in Treatment of Intrabony Defects

Introduction: Treatment of periodontal diseases done by surgical therapy depends upon extent and severity of disease. The ultimate goal of periodontal reconstructive surgery is to regenerate tissues destroyed during periodontal disease. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of bovine-derived xenograft with collagen membrane in treatment of intrabony defects by comparing it with open flap debridement alone. Methods: This non-randomised controlled trial was conducted after ethical clearance, at Bir hospital from 2018 March to 2019 April. The study recruited 38 patients by convenience sampling, age from 25-44 years, with chronic periodontitis, and willing to sign informed consent. Intrabony defects were treated by open flap debridement with bovine-derived xenograft and bioresorbable collagen membrane (Test group) and open flap debridement alone (Control group). Probing pocket depth, clinical attachment level, gingival recession, oral hygiene status, and gingival status were assessed at baseline and six months. Results: Six months after therapy, in Test group probing pocket depth reduction was 5.2 mm and gain in mean clinical attachment level was 4.3 mm. In Control group, mean probing pocket depth reduction was 3.8 mm and mean gain in clinical attachment level was 2.7 mm. The test treatment resulted in statistically higher probing pocket depth reduction and clinical attachment level gain than Control group. Conclusion: Both therapies resulted in significant probing pocket depth reductions and clinical attachment gains, and treatment with open flap debridement with bovine-derived xenografts and collagen membrane resulted in significantly higher probing pocket depth reduction and clinical attachment gain than treatment with open flap debridement alone.
Bioremediation: How to Decrease Greenhouse Gas Emissions Through Cattle

Introduction: The concentration of greenhouse gases within the atmosphere is currently on the rise. With the increase in human population comes a growing need for greater food security in order to support our population. The agricultural industry has a carbon footprint comparable to that of other extensive producers such as oil production facilities, waste sectors and industrial processors. This study aims to establish an experimental design to modify the current microbiome in cattle, as cattle farming practices account for a majority of agricultural methane production in North America. Methods: Young Canadian Holstein cattle with developing ruminal microbiomes will be placed into control and treatment groups and studied over the duration of 4 weeks. Ruminococcus hydrogenotrophicus will be inserted into the rumen of the experimental groups of cattle. Results: Results will generate findings on the basis of reducing methanogenic activity among the rumen of cattle, and therefore the results may propose a feasible answer towards the decreasing of the agricultural carbon footprint among the cattle industry. Discussion: The ability to decrease or eliminate the methane produced from agriculture would be a significant finding in current global studies. Through/by combining knowledge from environmental biology, agricultural science, microbiology and animal biology, solutions can be found for reducing the agricultural carbon footprint. Conclusion: The use of bioremediation methods to decrease methane production is a new area of research. By cultivating a microorganism that can compete with the methanogenic bacteria within the rumen of cows, less methane yield is plausible. Ultimately, leading to a proposed answer to curb climate change values to a decreasing end.
Effect of conservation tillage on yield of spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and soil mineral nitrogen and carbon content

Maintaining a sustainable environment with a global food demand from a population of nine billion will be one of the defining challenges for the next generation. Currently, farmers and agriculture scholars are under considerable pressure due to the enhancement of worldwide food demands (Shah and Wei, 2019). According to UN predictions (2015), the worldwide population is set to reach at 9.7 billion by 2050, which probably means larger demands for grain production in the future. Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is currently the most important cereal crop so it follows that it makes a vast contribution to universal food security. It is a chief constituent of the human diet which is responsible for meeting the majority of the calorie requirements of the human body. However, fulfilling worldwide food requirements is becoming ever more challenging due to stagnant crop productivity as well as the limited availability of arable land. Accordingly, an intensive cropping system and the maximum permissible level of inorganic fertilization have been used to attain higher crop production. Unfortunately, these approaches lead to reduced soil quality and environmental pollution (Guo et al., 2010). Therefore, in order to achieve a sustainable level of agriculture in the future, it is vitally important to maintain and enhance the soil nutrient status of © 2021 Institute of Agrophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences
Management performance analysis based on total quality management principles

Quality is the key to the competition's success. The best way to compete and excel is by applying the principle of total quality management to achieve the best quality. This study aims to analyze and assess the management performance of the company based on comprehensive quality management principles. In the principle of total quality management we use five independent variables, namely (focus on customers, commitment, teamwork, education and training, and employee involvement). In contrast, management performance is the dependent variable of this study. The results of the research were obtained by distributing questionnaires to 79 staff in PT. Bumi Karsa. The research hypothesis tests were performed using the SPSS tool in several phases of statistical testing. The results of this study show that indicate that the five variables of the TQM principle affect on management performance PT Bumi Karsa. The TQM variable which mainly affects management performance PT Bumi Karsa in Makassar is an employee participation and empowerment variable.
The Relationship Between Guests' Knowledge Awareness and Their Behaviors in Submitting Complaints (Applied on a Sample of Five Star Hotels in Sharm El-Sheikh)

There are many factors that affect guests' complaining behaviors as follows: guests' lack of knowledge about the accessibility of making complaints, perceived justice, and expected costs and efforts of complaining. This study aims to determine the effect of guests' awareness towards these factors on their complaint’s behaviors. The study also aims to determine if there is a difference in guests' awareness towards the research variables backs to their demographic characteristics. In order to achieve these objectives, a questionnaire form was developed and directed to a random sample of guests in a five star hotels in Sharm El-Sheikh. A total of 400 questionnaires were distributed among them; only 377 forms (94.25%) were valid. The results indicated that guests have not knowledge enough about the entity they should go when they face a problem or bad service, and they didn’t realize that there is justice in hotels towards complaints handling. The respondents usually take a great negative action through speaking to friends and relatives about their bad experience Based upon the findings, some recommendations were suggested and directed to hotel managements. One of the main recommendations was putting guidelines and instructions in clear places inside the hotel which direct guests to how delivering their complaints.
