Is insulin resistance a new comorbidity in seborrheic dermatitis: a case control study
Authors: AKŞAN Burak , DİKBAS Oguz
Published: December 2023

Purpose: Seborrheic dermatitis (SD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder with an unknown etiology. Data from studies show that the prevalence of SD is higher in individuals with obesity. Insulin resistance (IR) is a metabolic condition characterized by high levels of insulin required to balance blood glycemia, and obesity is one of its clinical manifestations. This study presents one of the first prospective studies revealing the relationship between IR and SD in the literature.

Materials and Methods: In this case-control study, a total of 71 participants were included: 35 SD patients (15 males/20 females) and 36 controls (15 males/21 females). All participants were clinically evaluated for the presence or absence of seborrheic dermatitis by the same dermatologist. Parameters including HOMA-IR, insulin levels, serum lipid levels, waist circumference, and BMI were measured in both groups.

Results: HOMA-IR, insulin, total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, waist circumference and BMI levels were higher in SD patients compared to the control group. Significant positive correlations were found between HOMA-IR and waist circumference, BMI, diastolic blood pressure, and triglyceride levels.

Conclusion: This study suggests that IR could be a new comorbid factor in seborrheic dermatitis. A substantial association was observed between SD and insulin resistance, possibly due to shared inflammatory pathogenesis. Consequently, individuals with SD should be monitored for insulin resistance-related conditions, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Authors: GÜZEL Bünyamin , ARPAĞ Osman Fatih , ÖZARSLAN Selma , HASKAN Ahmet Can , SALİMOV Fariz
Published: December 2023

Purpose: The aims of this study were to compare the mechanical properties of piezo-surgical tips such as nano-hardness, elastic modulus, surface roughness, and wear level, and to measure their cutting performance.

Materials and Methods: In this study, 31 piezo-surgical tips were used, three for control and 28 for testing. The testing tips were equally divided into four groups with different numbers of osteotomies: the four-, 8-, 16-, and 32-osteotomy groups. The mean osteotomy duration was recorded during osteotomy. Scanning electron microscopy images of the tips in the test groups were obtained before and after osteotomy, and the wear level of the tips was measured.

Results: A statistically significant increase was observed in the nano-hardness of the piezo-surgical tips depending on the number of osteotomy (for 4-use; 22.47±1.67H and for 32-use; 28.49±3.42H). The elasticity value of the testing tips was in the range of 218.55±15.74E to 241.26±10.46E, and all of the values were significantly higher than those in the control group (174.39±13.53E). As the frequency of use increased, a significant increase in surface roughness was observed (from 16.67±1.50 to 56.12±2.60). A positive correlation was found between the frequency of use and the wear level of the tips, and between the surface roughness and wear level of the tips.

Conclusion: With the increase in the number of osteotomies, significant changes in the mechanical and physical properties of the piezo-surgical tips that affected their bone-cutting performance were observed.

In recent years, there has been a significant shift towards the production of advanced nanomaterials using sustainable methods, reflecting a heightened focus on reducing environmental impact and optimizing resource utilization. This growing interest stems from the necessity to address environmental concerns and embrace eco-friendly practices in material synthesis. The primary objective of this study is to explore the eco-friendly synthesis of novel metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) by utilizing bio-waste as a sustainable precursor. The central theme revolves around employing ultrasound-assisted techniques for Cu2O NP synthesis, with a specific emphasis on utilizing avocado peel waste as an effective phytochemical compound for capping. Through systematic process optimization, we conducted a comprehensive assessment of the resulting NPs, delving into their chemical, thermal, and surface properties. Advanced characterization techniques, including X-ray Diffraction analysis (XRD), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), and Fourier-transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), were employed to gain profound insights into the attributes of the synthesized NPs. Our experimental results conclusively demonstrate the successful synthesis of spherical Cu2O NPs, each with a diameter of 25 ± 2 nm. This was achieved by utilizing avocado peel waste (APW) and ultrasound-assisted cavitation at room temperature. The study significantly contributes to our understanding of the potential applications of green synthesis methods, paving the way for environmentally friendly and cost-effective Cu2O NPs.

Psychometric intelligence tests have great importance for identification and diagnosis of learning problems, high talents, and cognitive profile in the context of developmental delay or brain injury impacts, for the orientation of specialized education. Among these tests are the three scales of Wechsler, which used frequently. From, the first to the last edition of Wechsler, tests based being, on the created g factor of Spearman. The Cattell-Horn-Carroll theory (CHC) is a complete psychometric theory and empirically based on the structure of cognitive skills. It’s used widely as a basis for the creation and classifying batteries of administration intelligence and neuropsychological tests to facilitate interpretation of cognitive performance. For organizing assessments for people suspected of having an intellectual disability, also three Wechsler tests are based on this theory. Our study tends to classify all subtests in the last three American edition versions of the Wechsler tests in this critical theory and compare these tests. We found that the five of The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children–Fifth Edition WISC-V primary indexes align with Gc (Comprehension knowledge), Gv (Visual and Spatial Thinking), Gf (Fluid Reasoning), Gwm (Working Memory), Gs (Processing Speed). As well Glr (long-term memory) is measured by two complementary indexes: the Naming Speed Index (NSI) and Symbol Translation Index (STI). Meanwhile, in The Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence Fourth edition WPPSI-IV, The Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Fourth Edition WAIS-IV and The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children–Fourth Edition WISC-IV. The only five primary indexes are aligning with Gc, Gv, Gf, Gwm, and Gs, and This proved that there existed more factors present in the WISC-V than the previous Wechsler test editions.
The roles of social workers and community volunteers in providing services to foster care children living with HIV in South Africa
Authors: Gutura Priscilla , Khosa Jeff Zwelithini
Published: December 2023

This paper discusses the role of social workers and community volunteers in providing services to foster care children living with HIV in South Africa. A literature review was undertaken of 14 qualitative studies conducted in South Africa from 2012-2022. The review showed the prominent role played by social workers in foster care, despite factors which hindered service such as high caseloads, lack of knowledge on HIV and prioritisation of quantity over quality. Hence, several challenges were faced by foster carers. The studies also revealed that community volunteers were providing services to children living with HIV through linking them to care and providing educational support. The literature shows that the challenges faced by foster care parents and their children mostly resulted of social workers’ inability to provide comprehensive services. Community volunteers offered services where social workers were constrained. This paper concludes that social workers should work in collaboration with community volunteers to cater to the limitations facing the social work workforce in providing services to foster care parents and children living with HIV.

Corruption being a multi-layer phenomenon has its direct and indirect effects on the economic life in different spheres. Taking into account this circumstance, we made an attempt to reveal the existing connections and dependence between corruption and inflation. Data of 161 countries were included in the carried-out analysis on inflation, corruption perceptions index (CPI), control of corruption index (COC), as well as Freedom of Corruption Index (FFC), whereas the countries have been divided into four large groups according to per capita GDP. Modern tendencies of the given groups of countries having strong foundations of institutional control or corruption «restraints» have been studied in this context. The correlation analysis has been carried out to study the dependence of corruption and inflation according to income groups. Research of previous experiences and results of the carried out analysis indicate that implementation of the efficient policy aimed at control of manifestations of corruption presumes some high level of institutional development in countries. Results of the correlation analysis prove the inverse relationship between corruption and inflation as well as its weaknesses for all income groups in countries.

One of the pressing challenges confronting higher education institutions in Kazakhstan is the enhancement of the quality of academic and research training for students, particularly at the postgraduate level (PhD). This quality is significantly influenced by the research capabilities of academic faculties. The assessment of academic training involves various factors, including the proficiency level in scientific methodologies exhibited by academic staff and postgraduate students. Economics of material-technical infrastructure plays a pivotal, often decisive role in this training, especially in the realm of natural and technical sciences. The primary goal of our study is to gauge the proficiency levels in scientific methodologies among academic faculty, scrutinize economics of material-technical provisioning of higher education institutions, and to formulate pedagogical and administrative recommendations targeted at the academic staff and management of these institutions. In the presented country case study (Kazakhstan), a comprehensive survey and data collection were carried out, involving 23 higher education institutions, 22 research institutes (spanning the years 2019-2021), and about 800 surveyed academic and research representatives in the fields of humanities, natural-technical sciences, and mathematical disciplines. A pronounced deficiency (82%) was identified in the grasp of scientific methodologies within higher education institutions. Marginal variances were observed between universities and research institutes, as well as between natural-technical and social-humanitarian faculties. Alarmingly lower levels of material-technical provisioning per academic faculty member were revealed, ranging from a mere 2% to 75% compared to research institutes. The presented results introduce new quantitative and qualitative data extracted from primary sources. The analysis uncovers both general and specific per-capita characteristics of the research potential of academic faculty and higher education institutions in Kazakhstan. It reveals significant variances in material-technical provisioning, ranging from a mere 2% to 75% when compared to research institutes. We provide evaluations and recommendations for universities to substantially augment the per-capita characteristics of material-technical provisioning at the level of individual research potential. In the economical aspect, we advise to improve workplace facilities and equipment.

The method in this research is descriptive quantitative. This study involved 206 people randomly selected in Indonesia in 2022. The data is obtained by giving a questionnaire. The sample is Muslim, so that the religious indicators are related to Islam. Indicators in measuring happiness are based on Statistics Indonesia. This study uses analysis of the covariance method (ANCOVA) to obtain empirical evidence. The results show that the only statistically independent variable that positively and significantly affects happiness is a religious ritual. Meanwhile, income and education have a positive effect on happiness but not statistically significant. Overall, these three independent variables have a simultaneous effect on positive and statistically significant life quality.
