Published: July 2019

Background: Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is a safe drug used in the treatment of cholestatic liver disorders in children. The aim of this study was to investigate the synergistic effect of UDCA in combination with phototherapy in treating indirect neonatal hyperbilirubinemia.
Methods: Present double-blinded, randomized clinical trial was conducted among neonates with jaundice who were under treatment with phototherapy in the neonatal ward affiliated with the Zabol University of Medical Sciences in 2017. The patients (200 neonates) were randomly divided into intervention (phototherapy+ UDCA) and control (phototherapy alone) groups. The intervention group received 15 mg/kg UDCA daily.
Results: Total bilirubin levels at birth, 24, 48, and 72 hours after therapy were 16.89± 2.49, 14.28± 2.05, 11.62± 2.46, and 10.26± 1.92 mg/dl in controls and 15.79± 2.18, 12.77± 1.86, 10.08± 1.66, and 8.94± 1.38 mg/dl in intervention group respectively (P< 0.001). The ratio of neonates with total bilirubin< 10 mg/dl were 28% and 55% after 48 hours, and 64% and 90% after 72 hours of therapy initiation in phototherapy alone and phototherapy+ UDCA groups respectively (P< 0.001). The mean reduction of direct bilirubin was not significantly different between the groups.
Conclusion: UDCA was effective in accelerating reduction of total bilirubin level in neonates with unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia under phototherapy but had no effect on direct bilirubin levels.

Published: July 2019

Central venous catheter (CVC) insertion is a common procedure in operation theaters and intensive care units (ICU). The procedure is performed through anatomical landmark technique, open surgical procedure, and ultrasound-assisted insertion. In the 1990s, ultrasound guidance of CVC insertion has been advocated as a means to reduce mechanical complications and placement failures compared with the landmark technique. Still CVC complications can be related to insertion, indwelling, or extraction. There is a need for continuous monitoring to avoid possible risk factors so as to minimize the morbidity and mortality.

Authors: Shabani Jafar , JaferNodeh Abol Hassan
Published: July 2019

Introduction: Smoking abstinence self-efficacy is a factor that plays a key role in preventing addiction or its revival tendency after quitting. This study attempted to analyze the relationship between the early maladaptive schemas and smoking abstinence self-efficacy among the sophomore high school students in the city of Gorgan, Iran.
Methods: This was a descriptive study and its population (n= 9955) included all second grade high school students in the city of Gorgan in the school year 2015-2016. The multi- stage cluster sampling method was used to select 369 participants. The required data were collected using the maladaptive schema questioners and the smoking abstinence self-efficacy questionnaire. Pearson correlation and Multi- variable regression methods were also used to analyze data.
Results: The results of the current study indicated a significant, yet reverse relationship of the early maladaptive schemas with smoking abstinence self-efficacy. Furthermore, 51 percent change in self-efficacy variance is derived from the components of early maladaptive schemas. Among components of the early maladaptive schemas, components of the abandonment / alienation, the strongest predictor was students smoking abstinence self-efficacy. 
Conclusion: Early self- efficacy schemas are among the individual and psychological causes with especial importance in studies on smoking dependency and its consumption. Such early schemas lead to biases in an individual’s interpretation of the events. These biases are represented as distorted attitudes, false speculations, unrealistic aims and perspectives, and high- risk behaviors such as smoking.

Published: July 2019

Background and objectives: One of the main goals of the health system is the fair contribution of people to healthcare financing. Therefore, the current study not only evaluated the status of fair financial contribution, but also investigated the impacts of the health reform plan on the financial pillars of the Iranian healthcare system.
Method: To conduct this retrospective descriptive study, the data of Income and Expenditure Survey (2011-2015) commissioned by Statistical Center of Iran were used. To measure fairness of financing, four indices were used. Data were analyzed using the Excel and SPSS software.
Findings: The results show that although the health reform plan has increased insurance coverage of both rural and urban households, out of pocket, and even its proportion to household capacity to pay continues to rise. Prevalence of catastrophic health expenditures in the baseline year in rural and urban areas was 2.19% and 1.04%, reaching 3.69% and 2.39% at the end of the study, respectively. Accordingly, fair financial contribution in rural and urban areas was obtained 0.830% and 0.850% in the baseline year, reaching 0.823% and 0.850% in the last year of the study, respectively.
Conclusion: Although indices of fair financial contribution during the 5-year period varied, they ultimately showed a worse situation compared to the baseline year. Thus, it is assumed that the health reform plan has not yet been successful in meeting the goal of improving fair financial contribution to the health system.

Authors: Samadi Mahdi , Mojtahedi Zahra , Daryanoosh Farhad , Nemati Javad
Published: July 2019

Introdution: Muscle weakness that is caused by cancer called Cachexia. One of the causes of the formation of the cachexia is the change in protein degradation, and the ubiquitous protease and Autophagy Lysosomes system is the most important protein breakdown system. Resistance training has been one the best stimulator of increasing muscular mass. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a period of resistance training on the muscle protease activity and autophagy flux in mice with cancer induce cachexia.
Methods: This study was conducted on 12 male BALB / c mice (age 6 weeks) and CT-26 tumor implanted into them. Then they were divided into two groups of resistance training (n=6) and control (n=6). Training group performed 6 weeks progressive resistance training. The protease activity was evaluated by fluorogenic substrate method and LC3B and p62 evaluated by western blot method. Independent t-test was carried out at P<0.05 for statistical analysis using Prism (7) software.
Results: There was no significant difference in Proteasome activity (p=0.13), muscle weight (p=0.24), and CT26 tumor volume (p≥0.05) between two groups of resistance training and control, but p62 decreased in the resistance training group (p=0.032).
Conclusion: However, the autophagy flux has improved in the part of cargo breakdown with resistance training, but perhaps the presence of a tumor inhibits muscle response to resistance training or this type of resistance training is not an appropriate intervention for treating cachectic muscle. To treat cachexia through the resistance training, either this method would be combined with other interventions or other methods of the resistance training can be applied.

Considering the importance of patient co-operation in drug therapy and resistance we decided to evaluate the rate of co-operation of tuberculosis infected patients in regard to their use of anti-tuberculosis drugs in Kerman.
Methods: This descriptive study was conducted as a sectional and census study and 80 patients succeeded to finalize it. Demographic information was collected through a questionnaire by patients. To carry out the designed test, a urinary sample was taken from each patient and a few drops of each were added to the drug-specific reagents. On the basis of color variation which is special for rifampin, isoniazid and pyrazinamide, we made a decision on the co-operation of the patients. The collected data were analyzed by the the use of SPSS software version 18 and p-value<0.05 was acceptable. To find out the relation between variables, the Chi-square test was applied.
Results: The results of this study showed that the total co-operation rate for patients administered with isoniazid was 70%, rifampin 70%, and pirazinamide 68.1%. The quality of adherence to drug orders with age, knowledge of unwanted adverse effects, opium addiction and duration of drug use had a significant relationship (P <0.05); but  with gender, duration of illness, use of another drug, and the presence of another TB infected in the family, no significant difference was observed.
Conclusion: We resulted that factors such as age, addiction and lifestyle, duration of treatment and awareness of side effects influence on the co-operation of the patients on drug usage. So that people over 35 years, addict ones, treated for a long time and in the patients with lack of awareness of drug side effects, their adherence to the treatment regimen was lower.
Verbal Phraseological Units (in Nakhchivan Dialects)
Authors: Haywaly Shakar Mammadova (Gadimly)
Published: July 2019

The article examines the structure and frequency of use of the verb in dialects as a phraseological unit. Since the verb plays an important role in enriching the vocabulary of our language, it also manifests itself in a phraseological basis.

Verbs, in the literary language and in Nakhchivan group of dialects are rich with their polysemy, omonism, synonymy, and in general, lexical-semantic features. This wealth reveals the importance of the role of the verb in the formation of phraseological units.

 Both in the literary language and in the vocabulary of Nakhchivan dialect, the verb can be used in different meanings in different phraseological units. For example, in Nakhichivan dialect the word “vurmag” (to beat) means different meanings in different phraseological units: yashmag vurmag - to hide a face; pal vurmag - obstruct; hava vurmag - carpet weaving; gahra vurmag - hang around (Shahbuz); peyvas vurmah - vaccinate (Sharur); sadama vurmah - to harm; myrt vurmah - chat (Nakhichevan); tin vurmah - coal poisoning (Ordubad), etc. As can be seen from the examples, the verb “vurmag” consists of eight different meanings within eight different phraseological units.

Variance and synonymy, which are ones of the types of phraseological units, are more noticeable in Nakhichevan group of dialects.

Authors: Syukur La Ode
Published: July 2019

Indonesia is known as an agricultural country where most people work as farmers, both as primary or part time jobs. Most of those who make farming as their main job are people who live in rural areas and one of them is the Muna community in Barangka District, Southeast Sulawesi. For the Muna in Barangka Subdistrict, farming is not only exploring or manipulating nature but more like their lives, their safety, especially when it comes to corn farming. Related to this rescue, farming corn becomes a tradition of the Muna community in Barangka Subdistrict which has its own ritual called the Kahitela defembula. For centuries, corn has become the staple food of the Muna people. Maintaining corn for the Muna community means maintaining their traditions. Thus, the ritual of cahitela defembula not only functions for the success of the corn harvest, but also their safety in real life. This ritual is led by a person known as special knowledge. This figure is called parika, whose role is to regulate each stage in the ritual of the Kahitela defembula and ensure the safety of the corn plantation owner and all members of his family. This paper aims to answer the question of what ideologies lie in the ritual of the cahitella defembula which was maintained by the people of Muna in Barangka District for centuries. This paper applies field observations to meet with Parika and corn garden owners directly to collect key data to explore the ideology behind the practice of the cahitela defembula in Barangka District

This article examines the identity of the Banjar people who have been trapped in issues of ethnicity, religion and culture. The social construction of the identity of contemporary or urban Banjar people is still not touched by many researchers. Known as a religious and obedient society, the urban Banjar people cannot avoid contact with the clash of differences, where the presence of the internet makes it easy to clash or friction with various things. Living in the postmodern era, the Banjar community met with digital culture and consumerism. Both are very susceptible to coloring Islam, which is also happened in forming the identity of the Banjar people itself. Two important questions in this article, namely what do the Banjar people face in the postmodern era? And what is the effect on the construction of the identity of the Banjar people? In fact, the spirituality of the Banjar community which is touched by digital culture and consumerism is transformed by infecting the secular side and the melting of traditionalism in Banjar's public life. The culture of Ahlussunnah wal jamaah of the Banjar community is no longer rigid but mingles with several different ideologies or ideologies. The Islamic identity of the Banjar people is no longer dominated by the ideology of Aswaja. At the same time, political conditions play an active role, so there is silence on the worship side because it is intertwined with consumerism, digital culture and the strengthening of the flow of Islamic populism in society. Artikel ini mengulik identitas masyarakat Banjar yang selama ini masih terjebak dalam persoalan etnisitas, keberagamaan dan kebudayaan. Konstruksi sosial atas identitas urang Banjar kontemporer atau urban masih belum banyak disentuh oleh banyak peneliti. Dikenal sebagai masyarakat yang religious dan taat beribadah, urang Banjar urban tidak bisa mengelak bersentuhan dengan benturan berbagai perbedaan, di mana dengan kehadiran internet memudahkan terjadi benturan atau gesekan dengan berbagai hal. Hidup di era pascamodern, masyarakat Banjar berjumpa dengan kultur digital dan budaya konsumerisme. Dua kultur yang sangat rentan mewarnai keberislaman, yang mana juga sebagai identitas urang Banjar itu sendiri. Dua pertanyaan penting dalam artikel ini, yaitu apa saja yang dihadapi dalam kehidupan masyarakat Banjar di era pascamodern? Dan apa pengaruhnya terhadap konstruksi identitas urang Banjar? Spritualitas masyarakat Banjar yang dijamah kultur digital dan konsumerisme bertransformasi dengan menjangkiti sisi sekuler dan mencairnya tradisionalisme di kehidupan publik Banjar. Kultur Ahlussunnah wal Jamaah masyarakat Banjar tidak lagi rigid dan berbaur cair dengan beberapa paham atau ideologi yang berbeda. Identitas Keberislaman urang Banjar tidak lagi didominasi dibatasi ideologi Aswaja. Di saat yang sama kondisi politik turut memainkan peran aktif, sehingga terjadi pendangkalan pada sisi peribadatan karena berkelindan dengan konsumerisme, kultur digital dan menguatnya arus populisme Islam di masyarakat.

CRISTIANISMO E FEMINISMO PODEM COEXISTIR?
Authors: Meira Vanessa Raquel
Published: July 2019

Este artigo analisará a influência do cristianismo igualitário sobre os movimentos de emancipação feminina que compuseram a Primeira Onda do Feminismo dos séculos 19 e 20. Ao analisarem-se alguns movimentos cristãos igualitários é possível observar um padrão de oportunidades para a participação e liderança femininas. Neste artigo, através de pesquisa bibliográfica histórica, será destacada a herança religiosa das personagens que protagonizaram o início do feminismo nos EUA. O artigo revelará que lançar luz sobre as raízes religiosas do feminismo pode inspirar mulheres religiosas que não nutrem simpatia pelo feminismo contemporâneo por causa do anticlericalismo e das fortes críticas e acusações lançadas contra o cristianismo por setores do movimento.

A gestão ambiental vem se difundindo no mundo e no meio empresarial, inclusive nos pequenos negócios. As micro e pequenas empresas encontram maiores dificuldades nas adequações ambientais, principalmente os Microempreendedores Individuais – MEIs, que possuem maior escassez de conhecimento, de recursos financeiros e humanos para atenderem às exigências necessárias para fazer uma adequada gestão ambiental. A pesquisa teve como objetivo analisar a percepção dos MEIs sobre a gestão ambiental das empresas de manutenção e reparação de veículos de Três Lagoas - MS. A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas junto aos MEIs, obtendo informações sobre o perfil dos empreendedores, consciência ambiental, dificuldades para aderir ao processo de licenciamento ambiental e práticas de gestão ambiental utilizadas pelo MEIs. Os resultados apontam que a maioria dos MEIs do setor não possuem licença ambiental e não praticam ações de gestão ambiental. Apenas 35% deles reconhecem que suas atividades causam danos ao meio ambiente, enquanto que os demais, mencionam que não causam impactos ou desconhecem o assunto. O descarte adequado dos resíduos gerados é feito por 9% dos estabelecimentos pesquisados. A pesquisa demonstra baixa conscientização, conhecimento e comprometimento dos MEIs com o meio ambiente. É incipiente as ações de responsabilidade ambiental dos MEIs, sendo necessário desenvolver um amplo trabalho de educação, conscientização e capacitação em gestão ambiental. A adequação as normas ambientais e a gestão ambiental são importantes para os negócios, para a imagem de um empreendimento ambientalmente responsável, para facilitar a obtenção de capital de terceiros, entre outros benefícios.Palavras-chave: Microempreendedor Individual; Gestão Ambiental; Licença Ambiental.

The Dispute Settlements of Inheritance in Palangka Raya: A Legal Anthropology Approach
Authors: Syaikhu Syaikhu
Published: July 2019

The issue of inheritance distribution does not often lead to conflicts that must be resolved by means of litigation. In resolving conflicts that might arise, the community usually has set a separate rule to distribute inheritance. The people of Central Kalimantan, especially in the City of Palangka Raya, prioritize deliberations that are actually not contrary to Islamic law in resolving their inheritance disputes. Why and how these dispute settlements are conducted? This study uses normative-empirical methods which employs a legal anthropology approach. The results of the study show that the tradition of resolving inheritance disputes in the people of Palangka Raya City of Central Kalimantan prioritizes peaceful settlement disputes by using Islamic law first and then a family meeting is held to determine the agreeable share and distribution of assets. The principle of kinship in the protection of property (hifz al-maal) in the family is adopted, so that the community returns to share property with the negotiation method which is built on family agreements. By referring to Islamic jurisprudence on inheritance, the dispute settlements also aims at sharia compliant in order to adhere to Islamic doctrine (hifz al-din). Finally, they also adopt the principle of responsive thinking which is human based on local wisdom values in society. The conclusion of this study shows that the Palangka Raya City Society combines Islamic law and customary law in the distribution of inheritance.Keywords: dispute resolution, inheritance, Palangka Raya, legal anthropology.

Published: July 2019

Background
Globally, cardiovascular disease (CVD) was responsible for 17.5 million deaths, accounting for 46.2% non-communicable disease deaths. In Ghana CVDs has been the leading cause of adult death since 2001. Prevalence of CVD risk factors among adolescents in Ghana has been increasing. Objective of this study was to develop, implement and evaluate the effectiveness of a health education intervention program to reduce CVD risk factors among students.

Methods
A cluster randomized controlled trial was conducted with a school as cluster over a period of six-months with pre and post intervention evaluations. Participants were public secondary school students (14-19 years) from four schools in Brong Ahafo, Ghana. Students in the intervention group were trained by the researchers whereas those of the control group received no intervention. The intervention included health education and physical activity modules. Follow-up data using same questionnaire were collected within two weeks after the intervention was completed. Intention-to-treat analysis was performed after replacing missing values using multiple imputation method. The generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) was used to assess the effects of the intervention.

Results
Of the 848 study participants, 836 completed the final assessment at six-month. The GLMM showed the intervention was significant in attaining 0.77(p<0.001), 0.72(p<0.001), 0.47(p<0.001), 0.56(p<0.001), and 0.39(p=0.045) higher physical activity, fruits, vegetables, seafood, and water scores respectively for the intervention group over the control group. The intervention was also significant in reducing -0.15(p<0.001), -0.23(p<0.001), -0.50(p<0.001), -0.32(p<0.001), -0.90(p<0.001),-0.87(p<0.001),-0.38(p<0.001),-0.63(p<0.001),-1.63(p<0.001),-0.61(p<0.001),and -1.53(p=0.005) carbohydrates, fats and oils, fried eggs, fried chicken, carbonated drinks, sugar, sweet snacks, salted fish, weight, BMI, and diastolic BP. The ‘’odds’’ of quitting alcohol use in the intervention group was 1.06 times more than in control group. There was no significant effect of the intervention on reducing systolic BP.

Conclusions
The intervention had positive effect on increasing physical activity, promoting healthy diet, reducing alcohol consumption, weight, BMI, and diastolic BP among students in the intervention arm of the study but had no effect on systolic BP. Findings from this study is recommended to be adopted in the educational curricula in secondary schools.

Zebrafish Ddx19 deficiency causes serious apoptosis and cell proliferation
Authors: Shi Can , Bao Linzhu , Zu Yao , Ren Jianfeng , Li Weiming , Zhang Qinghua
Published: July 2019

Background: DDX19 is known as for its role in mRNA transport. It is also involved in translation and innate immune responses. However, the function of Ddx19 during body development rarely reported. We know that ddx19 plays an important role in development of organisms, but we don't understand how it affects the process of cell development.
Results: Here, we report ddx19-deleted mutation in zebrafish, obtained two types with base deletion of 46 bp and 7 bp using CRISPR/Cas9 gene knockout technology, show morphologic defects such as small head, small eyes, pericardial edema and trunk curvature in 24 hours post fertilization (hpf). The maximum survival time of ddx19 -/- was less than 5 day post fertilization (dpf). In comparison to the wildtype, the mutant embryos showed widespread up-regulation of cell apoptosis, and significant decrease in the number of cells.
Conclusions: These data indicate loss of ddx19 is lethal, and is associated with cell apoptosis and proliferation abnormalities in the organism. Our results reveal that ddx19 is essential for the development of zebrafish embryos, which deepens the understanding of the developmental function of DEAD-box genes family.

Background

Better quality of care around the time of childbirth can significantly improve maternal and newborn survival. In countries like India, where the private sector contributes to a considerable proportion of institutional deliveries, it is important to assess the quality of maternity care offered by private sector healthcare facilities. This study seeks to fill that information gap by analysing baseline assessments conducted for the Manyata program, which aims to improve the quality of maternity care at private facilities.

Methods

An observation checklist based on 16 clinical standards endorsed by the Federation of Obstetric and Gynaecological Societies of India (FOGSI) was used to assess 201 private sector healthcare facilities in Maharashtra, Jharkhand, and Uttar Pradesh. Data on facility characteristics came from profiles completed when facilities enrolled in Manyata. Differences in the mean number of standards met were analysed by facility characteristics and the availability of essential supplies.

Results

47.1% of all nursing staff engaged in maternity care services at these private healthcare facilities were unqualified. The mean number of clinical standards met by facilities was 3.2 (SD 2.4). Facilities with a monthly delivery load between 20 and 50 met a significantly higher number of standards, as did facilities that had more than 70% of essential supplies available. Both of these factors were also significant in a multiple linear regression analysis.

Conclusions

The overall quality of maternity care in private healthcare facilities is poor in all three states, especially for clinical standards related to management of complications.

Objectives: Depo-Provera is a widely known brand name for medroxyprogesterone acetate. It has some adverse effects which is reversible after discontinuation include changes in bleeding patterns and bone mineral density loss risk of weight gain in obese adolescents. The study aims to investigate the effects of Depo-Provera on body weight and blood pressure of Ethiopian women. Institutional based cross-sectional study design was conducted. The data was analyzed using SPSS version 21 software packages. Paired t-test, independent t-test and ANOVA were used to evaluate the presence of mean difference and relationship between changes in variables and duration of use of Depo-Provera. The p-values less than 0.05 were considered as statistically significant.
Results
The mean weight and body mass index (BMI) of Depo-Provera users were increased significantly (p-value-0.02 and p-value-0.019 respectively). There was no significant difference in mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) of Depo-Provera users compared to controls or their respective pretreatment value (p-value-0.85, p-value-0.67, respectively). Depo-Provera users showed weight gain and an increased BMI, which requires attention of stake holders.
