Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) versus endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for resection of large distal non-pedunculated colorectal adenomas
Authors: Abdullah AlAmri Turki
Published: March 2022

Background: Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) is currently the most used technique for resection of large distal colorectal polyps. However, in large lesions EMR can often only be performed in a piecemeal fashion resulting in relatively low radical (R0)-resection rates and high recurrence rates. Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a newer procedure that is more difficult resulting in a longer procedural time, but is promising due to the high en-bloc resection rates and the very low recurrence rates. Objective: To investigate whether Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) is superior to endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for resection of large distal non-pedunculated colorectal adenomas. Methods: PubMed, Google scholar and Science direct were searched using the following keywords: Endoscopic mucosal resection, endoscopic submucosal dissection and Colorectal adenomas. The authors also screened references from the relevant literature, including all the identified studies and reviews, only the most recent or complete study was included. Documents in a language apart from English have been excluded as sources for interpretation was not found. Papers apart from main scientific studies had been excluded: documents unavailable as total written text, conversation, conference abstract papers and dissertations. Conclusion: EMR is safe and effective for treating colorectal adenomas.

Tying in Situational Awareness, Clinical Reasoning and Clinical Judgment through Cross-Training Using Case-Based Discussions in Emergency Medicine
Authors: Lateef Fatimah
Published: March 2022

Situational Awareness (SA) is knowing about what is going on around oneself, whether as an individual or as a team. It is the mental impression of where you are, what surrounds you and what lies ahead. SA has been noted to be one of the most important non-technical skills in medicine. It is a foundational concept in many high reliability organizations and industries for its importance in operational decision-making. Clinical Reasoning essentially summarises the process of making timely and accurate diagnosis. It goes through the steps of history taking, physical examination, performing diagnostic investigations, interpreting the results that are returned and planning management for patient care. It is a fundamental in the practice of medicine and even in today’s context of technology and Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications, these steps are incorporated into the algorithmic formulae. Clinical Judgment, on the other hand involves the process of “noticing, interpreting, responding and reflection” Just from the three definitions above, it can be seen that there may be overlaps between the three terms. They are also very often used almost interchangeably. Practitioners of academic medicine, educators and faculty, need to understand the similarities and differences between the three terms. They are often called upon to assess their learners in these domains. Thus, clarity on what each term exactly means is essential. In this paper, the author shares her experience as an educator and core faculty in Emergency Medicine Residency on the utilization of Case-Based Discussions (CBD) in the nurturing and inculcation as well as assessment of all these three domains. The ability to plan and use CBD in such a manner is time efficient and effective for emergency physicians, as it can be consciously prepared with the coverage of SA, CR and CJ skills all incorporated into the shared narrative or scenario management.

Limestone and other solid minerals exploitation have been a major activity at Okpella and its environs. This has tremendously contributed to the economic development of the host community, and on the other side poses a great danger to the health and the well-being of Okpella due to the continuous release of carbon emission, suspended particulate matter, and defying noise pollution from the mining and hauling equipment. However, long extraction of limestone has been attributed to land degradation as responded by 43.6% of the sampled population, whereas 19.2%, 14.6%, and 12.7% agreed to the use of heavy-duty equipment, land clearing, tailing dams, and application of toxic materials as responsible for land degradation and devaluation. Conversely, 39.4% of the respondents indicated that the exploration of limestone and other solid minerals could be attributed to cough, 22.5% to catarrh, and 13.2% to malaria. In conclusion, it is obvious that limestone exploration is beneficial to the socio-economic development of the host community but detrimental to their human and environmental health.

Methylene Blue (MB) adsorption technique was employed in the measurement of the Specific Surface Area (SSA) of Termite Feathers (TF). The adsorption study was carried out at 25°C and 270 rpm after which the residual concentration of MB was determined spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 660 nm. The adsorption data was found to conform to the Langmuir model within the concentration range studied and Langmuir constants were determined for TF. The specific surface area was then calculated from the Langmuir isotherm constant ‘b’. Effect of pre-treatment temperature on SSA was also considered at 30, 40, 50 and 60OC. The specific surface area was found to be 58.85 m2/g for the raw TF with values of 60.34, 78.52, 99.64 and 118.26 m2/g for the samples pre-treated at 30, 40, 50 and 60OC respectively. Finally, the specific surface area value obtained by MB adsorption technique was then compared with those obtained by Orth phenanthroline (OP) and p-nitrophenol (PNP) adsorption

Published: March 2022

One of the fundamental purposes and goals of learning and teaching around the world has been the active participation of students in higher education institutions. The teacher's knowledge alone is insufficient to ensure that the students understand the subject during the curricular transaction. The manner in which the lecture is delivered is equally important. As a result, in addition to the conventional method, PowerPoint presentations are being used on a larger scale. Furthermore, it enhances students' sense of pleasure and commitment and assists the teacher in attaining its objectives. It can also play an important part in creating a dynamic environment for teaching and learning when deployed as an efficient cutting-edge tool. In this paper, the focus is given on understanding using PPT as an effective cutting edge tool for innovative teaching-learning and impressive presentation through a questionnaire-based online survey of 915 students and teachers from 20 different states and 2 Union Tertiaries of India and 6 overseas countries too. The analysis of the collected data confirms that using multiple modalities in PPT might bring together all types of learners, kinesthetic, auditory, and visual and provide them the opportunity to be active learners and increase their interactivity.
Reduplication, Expressives, and Echo-Formation in Hajong
Authors: Narzary Albina
Published: March 2022

This paper is an attempt to document and investigate the reduplication in Hajong. Hajong is an Indo-Aryan language spoken in Bangladesh and Indian northeastern states of Assam, Meghalaya, and Arunachal Pradesh. The present study is based on the data collected from 12 Hajong speakers of the Goalpara district of Assam. Reduplication is a widespread phenomenon that is common in the languages of Southeast Asia. However, grammarians have ignored this phenomenon primarily because they follow the Western grammar description model, where reduplicated structures do not exist or are rare (Abbi, 1992). The aim is to study the reduplicated structures, expressive and echo-formation and its semantic aspects in Hajong. There are mainly two types of reduplicated structures in Hajong: Morphological reduplication and Lexical reduplication. The morphological reduplication is expressed through expressive. “Expressive behave and function like regular words and thus form a part of the lexicons of Indian languages” (Abbi, 2018). The semantics of expressive morphology in Hajong represent five senses of perception, states of mind and manner of an action, and kinship terminology. However, lexical reduplication is constructed through the process of echo-formation (partial reduplication), compound, and complete word reduplication. Echo-word Formation acquires the status of a meaningful element only after it is attached to a word (Abbi, 1992). Echo formation is formed by replacing the initial consonant sound in the reduplicant. The common replacer sounds in Hajong are /ʧ͡/, /t/, /tʰ/ /m/, and /s/. The semantics of Hajong's echo formation represent generality, plurality, intensity, and sets or types.

Under nutrition in children is a widespread health problem in our country. ICDS that addresses the problem of malnutrition has been unsuccessful even after three decades of implementation. Amrutham nutrimix - a nutritious supplementary food given for malnourished children is not utilized due to monotony in its preparation. Hence an attempt was made to formulate nutritious amrutham based recipes. Twenty common recipes including sweet dishes and savories were prepared. Acceptability of all the developed products was assessed by a taste panel. Iron and protein content was analysed for the 6 most accepted products. All the formulated products were affordable and ranged from 50p (murukku) to Rs.3/-(sweet balls) per 100g. The recipes were displayed and popularized among young mothers as they are the prime caregivers of young toddlers and are willing to change food behavior for the welfare of their children. Recipes and its health benefits were discussed with the participants. The education program was very effective in imparting nutrition knowledge as there was significance in the pre and post test scores. Hence, amrutham nutrimix can be an affordable and acceptable nutritional substitute to WHO recommended ready to use therapeutic food (RUTF) for Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) especially when used in diverse forms as suggested in the current study.

Published: March 2022

Knowledge, Attitude and Practices (KAP) of Anganwadi workers (AWW) i.e. ICDS functionaries and mothers regarding maternal health care practices during pregnancy and IYCF practices were assessed. The AWWs were well aware about the objectives of the ICDS program. Knowledge scores of functionaries regarding maternal health care and IYCF at baseline were good. Most AWWs had little information on the importance of the Nutrition Health Education (NHE) service and how it should be implemented. Knowledge scores of mothers regarding IYCF were sub optimal. Utilisation of antenatal care by mothers was good with 90% of mothers receiving more than three checkups. Utilisation of food supplements and attending sessions by mothers at the Anganwadi (ICDS centre) was sub-optimal at baseline. There was lack of convergence between ICDS and health sector. Appropriate interventions led to improved counseling and delivery of nutrition, health services by ICDS functionaries and adoption of optimal IYCF practices by mothers.

The hidden hunger and strategies for its alleviation – A review
Authors:   Department of Biotechnology, M S Ramaiah Institute of Technology, Bengaluru 560054, Sadanandan Bindu
Published: March 2022

Micronutrient deficiencies are aptly called as hidden hunger as they do not cause any immediate disorder symptoms but do cause serious health issues eventually. The situation of malnourishment is grim as it involves significant numbers of people especially women and children from various parts of the world. Micronutrient deficiency is usually due to the lack of a balanced diet and awareness on nutritional requirements. Another lesser known culprit is natural antinutritional factors present in plant based foods which reduce the bioavailablility of micronutrients causing deficiencies. This problem can easily be overcome by countermeasures like food fortification with micronutrients or by adopting suitable food processing methods like soaking, steeping, germination, cooking or fermentation. Biotechnology can also come handy here in the form of developing food crops with reduced antinutritional factors thereby enhancing micronutrient availability. Thus developing well researched & tailored micronutrient malnutrition management strategies & their effective implementation is a need of the hour.

Diabetes is one of the common causes of gastroparesis, with data suggesting that approximately 5 to 12% patients with diabetes have symptoms consistent with gastroparesis. A 60-year-old male, who was a known diabetic for last 20 years and had been on regular oral hypoglycemic, presented with complaints of early satiety, bloating, and abdominal distension for last 10 years on and off. He was being treated with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) for long duration but without any substantial relief. In terms of biochemical parameters, patient was seen to be having uncontrolled glucose levels both in fasting and postprandial levels. The patient was diagnosed to be suffering from diabetic Gastroparesis and his oral hypoglycemic agents were changed so that his glucose levels were controlled. Further, to manage gastrointestinal symptoms and underlying gastroparesis due to which patient was symptomatic, he was put on combination of PPI (pantoprazole) plus levosulpiride 75 mg per day.

Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) can be administered using individual containers or "all in one" type, commercial bags or multi bottle solutions prepared in the hospital drug-store. The aim of this work is to study the clinical efficiency and safety of surgical and traumatologic profile patients in Intensive Care Units (ICU) using all-in-one 3 compartment bag systems (TNA-peri). Fifteen adults with hypercatabolism syndrome of various genesis taking treatment in the surgical resuscitation department were included in this study and followed for four months (Nov 2013 to Feb 2014). In the course of study, depending upon the main pathology and performed surgical procedure, all the patients were divided into 2 groups. The first group patients (T-group) were given TNA-peri, 1 vial 2 times per day and the second group patients (K-group) were given standard multi-bottle systems containing amino acids solutions, glucose solutions, fat emulsions and micronutrients: vitamins, microelements, electrolytes in the volume estimated pursuant to the physiological needs. It is observed that the T-group receiving TNA-Peri, had more efficient recovery of hemoglobin and whole protein level with less duration of respiratory support, period of stay in ICU and frequency of suppurative septic complications compared to the K-group patients. This study shows that all-in-one, 3 component bags to be the system of choice to increase the clinical efficiency in surgical and traumatologic profile patients.

Published: March 2022

Pre-operative nutritional status and nutritional support in post operative services are critical determinants for outcome of surgery. In the present study thirty patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery from a private hospital in Kochi, Kerala were selected as subjects for the study. Nutritional status assessment was carried out using Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) and Instant Nutritional Assessment (INA) respectively. The results indicated that fifty and fifty seven percent of subjects fell under the severely malnourished category by SGA and INA respectively. Twenty three percent of the subjects had a BMI less than 80 % of reference standards. Enteral feeding by jejunostomy and nasojejunal route was initiated 48 to 72 hours post operatively. Forty three and seventy five percent of the subjects met RDA of energy on day five and day eight respectively. Incidence of post operative complications was higher among subjects who were malnourished pre-operatively. By INA there is a reduction in percent subjects malnourished during the hospital stay .High post operative morbidity and mortality rate have been associated with malnutrition and post operative nutritional support has a significant corrective role in improving the outcome of surgery.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common cause of chronic liver disease & liver transplantation and its incidence is increasing even in Asian countries. The gold standard for assessing hepatic fibrosis is liver histology but due to its limitations, noninvasive tests to assess hepatic fibrosis which can be used as alternative to liver biopsy have been developed. In a cross-sectional study, 25 diagnosed NAFLD patients underwent detailed laboratory investigations including the specific non-invasive markers of fibrosis namely, Haptoglobin, Alpha-2 macroglobulin, Apolipoprotein- A1 levels and Insulin Resistance was calculated by Homeostasis Model Assessment (HOMA), then patients were subjected to liver biopsy. Out of 25 patients, 19(76%) were male and 6(24%) were females. Nine patients (36%) were diabetic and 21 (84%) were dyslipidemiac. Metabolic syndrome was present in 18(72%), body mass index was increased in 22 patients and waist hip ratio was altered in 22 patients (88%). Using SPSS 10, p value was significant (p= 0.04) for correlation between steatosis and waist/hip ratio and HOMA-IR with inflammation and fibrosis (p=0.03) but non-invasive markers were not significant in predicting hepatic fibrosis on histology.

The main purpose of this study was to identify the challenges distance education students experience during their education degree studies. The specific objectives studied included the following: to investigate the technical and technology limitations, limited interactivity between lecturers and students and among distance education students, and lack of support from administrative staff. The research design employed in this study was the survey research design. The distance education students were asked to complete an online survey to determine their experiences doing their studies on a distance mode. The target population for this study included all distance education students (1675) who are enrolled at the Centre for Open, Distance and eLearning (CODEL) at the University of Namibia in 2020. The questionnaire instrument was administered via google form, 354 responses were received in spreadsheet formats, and chats generated from the responses, the Statistical Package of the Social Sciences (SPSS) file, the descriptive and reliability statistics for all the variables. Based on the findings of this study, this study concludes that the University of Namibia needs to improve slow internet speeds, limited internet access, lecturer student interaction, collaboration between distance education students, lack of computers, among others. Some of the recommendations made by this study include: increased funding in ICT infrastructure for distance education students, better training for lecturers on how to deliver pedagogy and the CODeL administrative staff to better support distance education students.
