Published: December 2024

Introducción: Tanto la Prostatectomía Radical (RP) como las modalidades radioterapéuticas son opciones terapéuticas adecuadas para el Cáncer de Próstata (PC) localizado. Por esta razón, la Supervivencia Libre de Metástasis (MFS) es un sustituto para comparar ambos enfoques. Objetivo: Comparar RP y Radioterapia Externa de Haz (EBRT) en PClocalizado utilizando el punto final de MFS. Material y Métodos: Se realizó una revisión sistemática de cuatro bases de datos electrónicas de estudios de cohortes retrospectivos que comparaban estas opciones terapéuticas. El punto final primario fue MFS utilizando la Razón de Peligro (HR). La calidad de los estudios incluidos se evaluó utilizando la "Escala de Newcastle-Ottawa (NOS)", que es adecuada para estudios observacionales de tipo cohortes. Resultados: De 42,286 artículos, se incluyeron 8, que comprendían un total de 10,062 pacientes. La radioterapia se administrócon terapia hormonal (Terapia de Privación de Andrógenos) en todos los estudios. Las tasas de supervivencia para RP oscilaron entre 66.7% y 93% a los 5 años, mientras que las tasas para EBRT oscilaron entre 58.2% y 81% durante el mismo período. Al realizar el metaanálisis, se encontró que los pacientes que recibieron RP como tratamientoprincipal tenían un 21% menos de riesgo de desarrollar metástasis a distancia que aquellos que recibieron EBRT, aunque esta diferencia no fue estadísticamente significativa (IC 0.5-1.24; I2=90.34%; T2=0.31). Conclusiones: Esta revisión sugiere un riesgo no significativamente mayor de metástasis a distancia para los pacientes tratados conradioterapia, particularmente EBRT, en comparación con la cirugía. Al elegir una modalidad terapéutica, se debenconsiderar otros factores más allá de los puntos finales clínicos.

Exploring the Impact of Prophylactic Antibiotics During Cesarean Delivery on Neonatal Microbiota: A Comprehensive Review Article
Authors: Bornaun Teymur , Guven Hamit Zafer
Published: December 2024

The use of prophylactic antibiotics during cesarean sections (CS) significantly impacts neonatal health by influencing the early colonization of the gut microbiota. Administered before surgical incision, these antibiotics cross the placenta, exposing the fetus to microbial disruptions at a critical stage of immune system development. This study examines the effects of perinatal antibiotic exposure on neonatal gut microbiota composition and its long-term health implications. Findings indicate that antibiotics disrupt microbial diversity, reduce beneficial bacteria like Bifidobacterium, and promote colonization by opportunistic pathogens. Such alterations have been linked to increased risks of obesity, inflammatory bowel disease, and metabolic disorders later in life. Maternal antibiotic use also affects vertical microbial transmission, altering the maternal vaginal and gut microbiota and exposing newborns to antibiotic residues through breast milk. While prophylactic antibiotics effectively reduce perinatal infections, their widespread use raises concerns about antibiotic resistance and long-term health consequences. Experimental studies show that even a single dose during critical developmental windows can predispose neonates to chronic diseases. This study highlights the need for careful evaluation of antibiotic use during the perinatal period to minimize adverse effects on neonatal microbiota and optimize long-term health outcomes. Identifying modifiable risk factors and refining clinical guidelines are essential steps toward balancing the benefits of infection prevention with the risks of microbiota disruption.

Authors: Bukecik Necati
Published: December 2024

This review carried out to examine the increasing prevalence of digital and substance addiction among young people, its causes and adverse effects on health. While digital addiction defined as a type of behavioral addiction that occurs when the use of social media, video games and the internet reach an excessive level, substance addiction includes the use of substances such as tobacco, alcohol, marijuana and e-cigarettes. Both types of addiction seriously affect the physical, psychological and social health of young people and reduce their quality of life. This study is based on a literature search in PubMed, Scopus and Google Scholar databases using the keywords "digital addiction", "substance abuse", "young people" and "public health nursing". Recent studies have revealed that these addictions are quite common among young people and often have common risk factors. It has been emphasized that public health nurses play an essential role in the prevention and management of addictions. Raising awareness about addictive behaviors among young people, organizing training programs, providing early interventions and providing counseling services are among the prominent strategies in this context. However, it is suggested that policymakers and health professionals should collaborate to overcome this problem by adopting a multidisciplinary approach.

Published: December 2024

This study aims to explore future research directions concerning retired athletes through a bibliometric analysis based on a literature review, utilizing the VOS Viewer application. The research employs a literature review methodology incorporating three tools: Harzing’s Publish or Perish, Mendeley Desktop, and VOS Viewer. Harzing’s Publish or Perish was used to identify articles published in international journals indexed in Scopus from 2016 to 2024 using the keyword “retired athlete.” Mendeley Desktop and VOS Viewer were applied to filter and categorize articles by keywords, as well as to analyze performance, co-citation, bibliographic integration, and scientific mapping. An initial search with Harzing’s Publish or Perish yielded 153 articles. After thematic filtering, 96 articles were retained, and 33 were further analyzed using VOS Viewer. The keyword analysis, based on clustering, highlights prevalent challenges faced by retired athletes, including mental health, well-being, quality of life, physical activity, risk factors, suicide, and career transitions. However, prevention strategies addressing these issues remain underexplored. Consequently, research on preventive measures, such as the development of educational and training models to help retired athletes maintain their fitness, quality of life, and overall well-being, presents a promising avenue for future studies.

Published: December 2024

Purpose. Depression is a widespread condition impacting global health. This study explored the effectiveness of a physiotherapy protocol in treating depression in women with major depression. Methods. Forty women aged 28–56 years with depression participated in the study. Random selection was used to divide them into two equal groups. Participants in the study group received selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and physiotherapy, while the control group participants were treated with SSRIs alone. Depression levels were evaluated using the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) at five intervals: before treatment, after 2 weeks, after 4 weeks, and at 1- and 2-month follow-ups. Results. Both groups showed significant reductions in BDI-II scores at each time point compared to pre-treatment (p < 0.001). The study group demonstrated further significant decreases at 4 weeks post-treatment and at the 1-month follow-up compared to 2 weeks post-treatment (p = 0.01), but an increase at the 2-month follow-up compared to the 1-month follow-up (p < 0.001). The control group exhibited significant decreases at the 1- and 2-month follow-ups compared to 2 weeks post-treatment (p < 0.01) and at the 2-month follow-up compared to the 1-month follow-up (p < 0.01), but no significant differences between 2- and 4-weeks post-treatment (p > 0.05). Between the groups, the study group had greater decreases at 2 weeks (p < 0.05), 4 weeks (p < 0.001), and the 1-month follow-up (p < 0.01), with no significant differences at 2 months (p > 0.05). Conclusion. Combining manual therapy, exercise, and SSRIs effectively reduces depressive symptoms in the short term in women with major depression, highlighting the importance of physiotherapy in managing depression.

Authors: Mary S.M. Divya , Pau Jibi , Hema V. H. , Senthil P.
Published: December 2024

Introduction. Lateral epicondylitis, or tennis elbow, is a common musculoskeletal condition caused by repetitive strain on the elbow joint, often affecting individuals engaged in repetitive wrist and forearm motions. It leads to inflammation and microtears in the extensor tendons, resulting in pain, impaired grip strength, and difficulties in daily activities. Management typically involves conservative treatments, with therapeutic exercises playing a crucial role. Recent methods, such as stretch shortening cycle (SSC) exercises, utilize elastic energy to enhance rehabilitation outcomes. Aim. This study compares the effectiveness of SSC exercises and traditional exercise protocols in improving grip strength and functional outcomes in patients with unilateral lateral epicondylitis. It also assesses the interventions’ impact on activities of daily living using the Patient-Rated Tennis Elbow Evaluation (PRTEE) and a patient-specific functional scale. Methods. Conducted at the ACS Medical College and Hospital, the study involved 24 participants aged 45–65 years with unilateral lateral epicondylitis. Participants were randomly assigned to Group A (SSC exercises) or Group B (traditional exercises). Group A performed SSC exercises combining eccentric and immediate concentric phases, while Group B engaged in conventional strengthening and stretching exercises. Both groups completed a 12-week program. Assessments included grip strength (dynamometer), PRTEE scores, and a functional scale. Statistical analysis compared pre- and post-intervention results. Results. Both groups showed significant improvements in grip strength and functional outcomes, with SSC exercises yielding superior results. PRTEE scores revealed reduced pain and improved functionality, with statistically significant differences favoring SSC exercises (p < 0.05). The effect size for grip strength was small (Cohen’s d = 0.062), and the number needed to treat (NNT) was 17, suggesting modest clinical benefits. Conclusion. SSC exercises are more effective than traditional protocols in improving grip strength and functional performance in lateral epicondylitis, supporting their use in rehabilitation strategies.

Published: December 2024

Stunting is a condition of failure to thrive in children under five whose height is much shorter than the height of children their age due to malnutrition. Stunting prevention is one of the areas of focus in health development because growth at an early age is an important thing to pay attention to. Because one of the causes of stunting can arise from environmental factors, as well as from the food consumed, whether looking at the source of nutrition or vitamins. The success of the Stunting Prevention Program can be seen if the program's effectiveness refers to measures of program effectiveness. This research aims to analyze the effectiveness of implementing the stunting prevention program in Sambirejo Timur Village, Percut Sei Tuan District. This study used descriptive qualitative method. The subjects in this study were 5 people consisting of the Head of East Sambirejo Village, Village Midwife, Posyandu Cadre, Pregnant Women, Mothers with babies.

Cybercrime refers to crimes conducted through computer networks and the internet, encompassing various illegal activities such as data theft, online fraud, hacking, and malware distribution. In Indonesia, regulations concerning cybercrime are primarily governed by Law Number 11 of 2008 on Electronic Information and Transactions (EIT Law), which was later amended by Law Number 19 of 2016. The handling of cybercrime in Indonesia has evolved alongside rapid digitalization, particularly in the financial, telecommunications, and social media sectors.This study aims to analyze the application of cybercrime laws in Indonesia and the challenges faced in law enforcement. Additionally, it examines the preventive efforts made by various stakeholders, including the government, private sector, and the public, through the strengthening of security infrastructure, digital literacy campaigns, and international collaboration in tackling cybercrime.The research methodology used in this study is normative juridical with a legislative and case study approach. The author examines various regulations, including the EIT Law and the Personal Data Protection Law, as well as notable cybercrime cases in Indonesia, such as ransomware attacks on hospitals and data theft in the banking sector.The study concludes that while Indonesia has a strong legal framework for addressing cybercrime, challenges remain in the ability of law enforcement to apply digital forensic technology, low public digital literacy, and suboptimal international cooperation. Therefore, strengthening law enforcement capacity, developing data protection policies, and increasing public awareness are necessary to address the growing cybercrime threat.

The design of the implementation of integral learning is the design of the implementation of learning that involves different processes to get good results. This requires special attention that the design of the implementation of learning has a very large effect on teacher performance and the quality of students. Plus the phenomenon that is increasingly happening in the 21st century is the absolute need for students to have qualified skills that become an important standard in the life of globalization. This is something that the teacher must respond to quickly in his expertise in creating the concept of an innovative Arabic language learning implementation design that is oriented towards 21st century skills. However, the problem is that it is difficult for teachers to formulate learning objectives, develop unique 21st century learning steps including strategies, models, methods and their development in the field due to lack of education about understanding the process of preparing innovative 21st century skills-based RPP with an insufficient period of time. Thus the challenges of teachers will be even greater, new innovations will continue to be generated. On that basis, this study aims to understand and know more clearly the conceptual design of the implementation of innovative Arabic learning based on 21st century skills. This study uses a qualitative method with the type of library research (library research), which is to obtain correct and good information on research criteria from all reading and recording activities. in the form of books, journals, articles, survey results, seminar materials and other research results.

Published: December 2024

Desertion is a military crime involving members of the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) leaving their duties or military obligations without proper authorization from their superiors. Desertion has serious implications for military discipline, cohesion, and operational efficiency, and it can threaten national defense. The legal enforcement of desertion offenses is regulated under the Military Penal Code (KUHPM), particularly Articles 87 and 88. The process of handling desertion cases involves investigation by the Military Police (POM), investigation by military investigators, and trial by military courts that issue rulings according to the applicable laws. The penalties imposed vary, ranging from imprisonment, demotion, dishonorable discharge, and even the death penalty during wartime.This study aims to explore in-depth the implementation of military law on individuals who commit desertion and to analyze the factors causing desertion. These factors include personal issues, psychological pressure, and unfavorable working environments. The study employs a normative juridical method, with an approach focused on relevant regulations and military court case studies concerning desertion offenses. The findings show that the application of military law to desertion is a crucial effort in maintaining the stability, discipline, and integrity of the TNI. However, there are several challenges in enforcing the law, such as internal and external factors affecting military personnel. In the relationship between the Military Penal Code (KUHPM) and the Criminal Code (KUHP), both are complementary, where general crimes are regulated by the Criminal Code (KUHP), while offenses related to military duties are governed by the Military Penal Code (KUHPM). This study recommends strengthening law enforcement and discipline training to minimize desertion within the military.
