Authors: Pacheco-Gallego Manuel Conrado , Rubiano-Pavía Lilian Patricia
Published: September 2023

La tecnología es una herramienta útil para mejorar los procesos en la atención en salud, pero para muchos, las barreras digitales son un obstáculo para aprovechar las oportunidades que ofrece la tecnología. Las barreras digitales incluyen la falta de acceso a la tecnología, la falta de habilidades digitales, la brecha generacional, la falta de confianza y el miedo a cometer errores. Estas barreras pueden tener consecuencias negativas en su calidad de vida, como el aislamiento social y la exclusión digital. Los adultos mayores pueden tener dificultades para tomar decisiones de atención médica si no pueden descargar archivos, abrir correos electrónicos o si el sistema está fuera de línea, lo que puede provocar retrasos en el tratamiento y la pérdida de oportunidades. Es importante que los proveedores de atención médica estén al tanto de estas barreras digitales y ofrezcan soluciones alternativas para garantizar que todos los pacientes tengan acceso a la atención médica que necesitan. La brecha digital puede afectar la equidad en la atención médica y es necesario tomar medidas para cerrarla y garantizar que todos los pacientes tengan igualdad de oportunidades para recibir atención médica de calidad.

Pest Management Strategies for Cotton in North Ghana
Authors: SALIFU A.B
Published: September 2023

Aspects of component research to formulate rationale ecological and economical pest management strategies for cotton production were conducted with emphasis on reassessing the economic importance of members of the pest complex. Studies also included planting date and trap cropping effects as mechanisms for ameliorating pest incidence and timing pyrethroid application for managing cotton bollworms. The results indicate that GUILD II pests – principally bollworms – were the most economically significant. Yield of cotton obtained when these pests were controlled were Dot significantly (p = 0.01) different from the treatment involving complete control of all pests. This trend was similar in all three locations. Cotton sown in early and mid-June were most susceptible to infestation by early season sucking pests such as leafhoppers Jacobiella facialis. Cotton planted in July on the other hand appeared to escape significant populations of these pests. The highest yield was obtained on crops sown in early June for all varieties. This was consistent with the trend of bollworm attack where early sown crops were the least affected by bollworms. Cotton sown in mid-June recorded significantly lower yields compared to the early sown crop. Mid-June crops were however significantly superior to late crops. Some degree of attraction of Helicoverpa, and particularly Cryptophlebia, was obtained but differences were not statistically significant to draw any conclusions on the effectivity of maize as a trap crop for these pests. The results of yield loss due to bollworms from pyrethroid timing studies indicated that loss levels were similar for all timings; hence there appeared to be no risk in obtaining a higher bollworm damage when pyrethroid application commenced much later in the season. These results indicated that early spraying for bollworms may not be entirely needed in all cotton growing zones and underlined the possibility for optimizing bollworm rnauag-.nent while still conserving natural enemies.

Authors: UMOETOK S.B.A. , USUA E.J.
Published: September 2023

Field experiments were conducted in the 1999 and 2000 late planting seasons to investigate the effects of weeds on the population of insect pests and yields of soybeans. Two soybean cultivars TGX 536-02D and TGX 1448-313D were planted as the main plot treatment while four weeding schedules (no weeding, 1, 2 or J weedings) were included as the sub-treatments. Some of the insects that were observed in the experimental plots included the defoliators such as: Medythia quaterna, Podagrica sp., Zonocerus variegatus The pod feeders among which were: Aspavia armigera, Nezara viridula, Acrosternum acuta, Cletus notatus, Mirperus sp, Riptortus dentipes and Chnootriba similes. The flower feeder such as Paederus sabeaus and the leaf roller (Hedylepta indica) were also observed. The weeded plots had significantly (P<0.05) lower insect pest population densities than the non-weeded plots Insect population density decreased significantly with increase in the number of weeding. Thus, insect population of 6.23/0.6 m-row were observed in the plots weeded thrice in 1999 and 11.34/0.6 m in the year 2000, 7.01 and 12.30/0.6 m row in the 2-weedings while the l-weeding gave 9.35 and 15.87/0.6 m row. The non-weeded plot had 11.8 and 17.02 insects/0.6 m row. The frequency of weeding was highly correlated with the insect population. Grain yields were significantly higher (1286.84 and 858.77 kg/ha) in the two years when weeding was done three times compared with when no weeding was done or with when weeding was done once and twice. In the two years, the percentage unfilled/damaged pods decreased as the number of weeding increased (r=0.986 and 0.935). There was also an indication of a high correlation (r=-0.961 and -0.938) between insect population and the grain yields in the two years.
Evaluation of Furadan as a substitute for Aldrin in the control of the yam tuber beetles, Heteroligus meles and H. appius (Coleoptera:Dynastidae)
Authors: UMEOZOR O. C
Published: September 2023

Field experiments were conducted in 1993 and 1994 at Choba near Port Harcourt, Nigeria to compare the effectiveness of aldrin WP and Furadan 3G in the control of yam (Dioscorea sp.) tuber beetles, Heteroligus meles and H. appius, During both years, a highly significant difference (P<0.01) existed among the treatments. In 1993, the means of beetle feeding holes were 9.8, 4.2, and 9.1 for aldrin, Furadan, and control treatments, respectively, while in 1994, the means of beetle feeding holes were 23.0, 9.2, and 29.9 for aldrin, Furadan, and control treatments, respectively. Least Significant Difference analysis indicated that Furadan very significantly (p<0.01) reduced beetle damage, compared with aldrin. During the' two years, there was no significant difference between the level of damage in the aldrin-treated plants and the control. From the result, it does appear that the beetles have developed resistance to aldrin and that Furadan could be used to substitute aldrin in the control of the yam beetles.

Total Knee Arthroplasty: The Impact of Tourniquet Usage on Cement Penetration, Operation Time, and Bleeding Control
Authors: Peker Gökhan , Altun İbrahim
Published: September 2023

Objective: The cementing technique employed in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) significantly influences the penetration of cement into the bone, ultimately affecting the stability of the joint. This study aimed to assess the impact of tourniquet usage on tibial cement penetration, operative time, bleeding, and functional outcomes following TKA.
Materials and Methods: A retrospective evaluation was conducted on 103 patients who had undergone TKA and had a minimum follow-up period of 2 years. The patients were categorized into three groups: Group 1 utilized a tourniquet throughout the entire surgery, Group 2 released the tourniquet immediately after prosthesis implantation, just before cement hardening, and Group 3 did not employ a tourniquet at any stage of the procedure. Tibial cement penetration was assessed via X-ray examination, following the Knee Society Scoring System criteria. Operative time, bleeding levels, and Lysholm and Oxford scores were compared among the groups. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 22.0 software.
Results: In Group 1, bone penetration of cement was significantly higher than in both Group 2 and Group 3, except for zone 1 in the anterior-posterior (AP) view (p < 0.017). Group 3 exhibited significantly less bleeding compared to the other groups (p < 0.017). There was no significant difference in terms of bleeding between Group 1 and Group 2. The operation time was significantly shorter in Group 1 compared to the other groups (p < 0.017). The mean cement penetration depth across all groups was measured at 2.44 ± 0.27 mm. Bleeding volume and operation time did not have a significant effect on mean cement penetration (p > 0.05). Additionally, there were no significant differences observed between the groups in terms of the Lysholm and Oxford functional test results (p > 0.017).
Conclusions: The use of a tourniquet was found to increase cement penetration and reduce operation time; however, it did not have a significant impact on reducing bleeding. Based on our findings, we recommend considering a shorter tourniquet time and implementing effective bleeding control measures to mitigate potential complications associated with tourniquet usage.

Published: September 2023

Aim: Low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave therapy (Li-SWT) is one of the recommended treatment options in patients with erectile dysfunction (ED). Li-SWT is safe in patients using antiplatelet drugs (APs), however, there are no specific studies on the contribution of APs use to clinical improvement in erectile function. We aimed to evaluate the early clinical results of Li-SWT administration and whether the use of APs had an additional positive contribution to clinical improvement and safe in ED patients.

Methods: Patients with ED for more than 6 months despite using (5 mg/day) PDE5i were included in our study. Patients treated with Li-SWT and using PDE5i were classified as Group 1, patients treated with Li-SWT and using APs and using PDE5i were considered Group 2. The evaluation results of the International Index of Erectile Function-Erectile Function Area(IIEF-EF) in all patients baseline and after treatment were examined.

Results: There are 25 patients in each group. Analysis of IIEF-EF scores showed significant increases in both groups after treatment [group 1 (p=0.001); group 2 (p=0.001)]. When the IIEF-EF scores of the groups before and after the treatment were compared with each other; it was shown that baseline scores were similar(p=0.746) and that APs use had no statistically significant effect on post-treatment scores (p=0.613) No side effects were seen in APs.

Conclusions: This study showed that penile Li-SWT significantly increases the IIEF-EF scores and response of (5 mg/day) PDE5i in ED patients and safe, also in AP users. However, Using AP in Li- SWT does not contribute positively to clinical results.

Authors: ESME Hıdır , ERDİRİL Yunus Emre
Published: September 2023

Aim: Treatment of malignant pleural effusions is drainage and chemical pleurodesis. Our aim in this study is to investigate the success and complications of the procedure in patients who underwent drainage with an 8F pleural drainage catheter due to malignant pleural effusion, in the light of the literature.

Material and Method: The study included 124 patients who underwent 8F pleural drainage catheter (Easydren®) for malignant pleural effusion between August 2020 and October 2022. Clinical, radiological and laboratory findings of all patients were obtained from the automation system and archive files. Age, gender, etiology, number and duration of catheter drainage, complications and hospital stay of the patients were recorded.

Results: Of the patients, 67 (54.0%) were female and 57 (45.9%) were male. The mean age was 54 (31-87). A total of 136 pleural drainage catheters were applied to 124 patients. Drainage and complete reexpansion of the lung were successful in 125 (91.9%) of 136 procedures. No acute surgical complications were observed during the application of pleural drainage catheters. The mean drainage time was 4.6 days (3 – 11). The hospital stay was 5.7 days (4-12).

Conclusion: We believe that small diameter pleural drainage catheters are as effective as conventional chest tubes for the drainage of malignant pleural effusion with greater patient comfort. Although it has the disadvantage of rarely occlusion during follow-up, it is less invasive and has fewer complications compared to tube thoracostomy.

Aim: This study aimed to asses the efficacy of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols in the lumbar discectomy surgeries.
Methods: Data obtained from 92 patients who underwent lumbar microdiscectomy surgery at a single institution between January 2021 and January 2023. Then, the patients were divided into two groups: ERAS protocol group (n=60), and conventional surgery group (n=32).
Results: The mean age of the patients was 49.4±14 years. Among these, 31 were females, and 61 were males. The demographic, surgical and outcome parameters of two groups were compared. There were statistically significant decreases in length of stay and spondylodiscitis rates in the ERAS protocol group. Length of stay was found 25.52±12.53 hours in ERAS group, and 34±20.06 hours in conventional surgery group (p=0.002). Spondylodiscitis rates were 3.3% and 15.6% in the ERAS and conventional surgery groups, respectively (p=0.034).
Conclusions: This study revealed that ERAS protocol reduces length of stay in hospital, and spondylodiscitis rates in lumbar microdiscectomy surgery. We conclude that ERAS protocols should be encouraged and applied more widely in spine surgeries.

Authors: Jeong Seung-Hoon , Chung Ji-Young
Published: September 2023

Since flipped learning (FL) is a popular approach in a worldwide university classroom, expanding the scope with diverse disciplines and student populations is necessary. This study examines Korean pre-service teachers' evaluations and satisfaction with flipped learning for physical education courses. The data was collected in 2022 fall, including the course exit survey (n=103) and focus-group interviews (n=8). The results are as follows. Firstly, FL provides a convenient and adaptable learning environment for PSTs, allowing them to access course materials conveniently. Secondly, the FL format is beneficial for PSTs in developing their self-directed learning skills, as they review course materials before attending face-to-face classes. As a result, PSTs reported feeling more prepared for in-class assignments. Thirdly, PSTs praised the FL instructor as a competent educator who effectively communicated the course content in a well-organized manner. However, PSTs preferred immediate instructor feedback during focus-group discussions during face-to-face or synchronous Zoom lectures. Lastly, various recommendations were discussed for successfully implementing FL in higher education physical education courses.

Authors: Diana Nur , Maslichah  , Basjir M. , Adhikara Arrozi
Published: September 2023

The phenomenon of auditors transitioning to Public Accounting Firms (KAP) or other professions has resulted in a decline in both auditor performance and the overall functioning of KAP. Therefore, this study empirically examines the predictive capabilities of role dynamics theory within the framework of planned behavior theory on mentoring behavior and its potential to prevent auditors from transitioning to KAP or other professions. The study design used explanatory causality and the data were collected through survey using a questionnaire, with primary data as the source. The sample included 191 auditors at various levels, namely managerial, partner auditors, senior auditors, and staff members, within KAP. Furthermore, a proportional random sampling method was used, and structural equation modeling [SEM] was employed for data analysis. The individual auditor served as the analytical unit, while time horizon was considered as the cross section. The results showed the mentor's position positively impacted the level and mentoring function of protégé organization, and the degree of the organization positively influenced the status of the mentor. Meanwhile, the mentor's level and mentoring function negatively impacted turnover intention, and organizational structure enhanced the connection between protégé organizational level and the mentoring role. The results indicated that both the position and function of mentoring can enhance the retention of protégé of staff, and the less structured office environment can strengthen mentoring activities within the KAP.
