II. ABDÜLHAMİD DÖNEMİ BÜROKRATLAR ARASI ELEŞTİRİLERE BİR ÖRNEK: MEHMED MEMDUH PAŞA’NIN ESVÂT-I SUDÛR ESERİNDE SAİD PAŞA FİGÜRÜ
Authors: Karasu Demet
Published: June 2024

Erzurum’da dünyaya gelen Mehmed Said Paşa, dönemin bir diğer paşası Said Paşa ile karıştırılmaması adına boyunun kısalığından dolayı “Küçük” lakabıyla bilinmektedir. Babasını erken yaşta kaybeden Paşa, ailesinin geçimini sağlamak için Erzurum Tahrirat Kalemi’ne memur olarak atanınca ihtisasına ara vermek durumda kalmıştır. 1853 yılında başlayan memurluk serüveni 1856’da Anadolu Ordu-yı Hümâyun Tahrirat Kalemliği, 1858’de Meclis-i Vâlâ memurluğuyla devam etmiştir. Bir taraftan memuriyetini sürdürürken bir taraftan da öğrenimini tamamlamaya çalışan Said Paşa, Ayasofya Camii’nde başladığı derslerini memuriyeti dolayısıyla sekiz yılda bitirmiştir. Dil konusunda kendini geliştiren Paşa, Anadolu ve Rumeli’de çeşitli görevler ifa etmiş ancak bürokrasinin basamaklarında yükselebilmek için mümkün olduğunca taşra memurluklarından uzak durmaya çalışmıştır. Basına olan ilgisinden ötürü Takvim-i Vekâyi gibi çeşitli dergilerde görevler ifa etmiştir. 1876 yılına dek çeşitli memurlukları icra eden Said Paşa, Sultan II. Abdülhamid’in tahta çıkmasıyla sultanın vazgeçemediği danışmanı olmuş ve bu durum Paşa’nın pek çok muhalifi karşısına almasına neden olmuştur. Başkitâbetlik görevi esnasında 1876 Kanûn-i Esâsinin hazırlanmasında hatta 1878 yılında bugün bile geçerli olan Adliye Teşkilatı Nizamnâmesini hazırlanmasında Paşa’nın devlete önemli katkıları olmuştur. Son derece çalkantılı bir dönemde yaşayan ve Sultan ile ara ara ihtilafa düşse de yekunda dokuz kez sadaret makamına getirilen Paşa, dönemin önemli siyasî, idarî ve ictimâi meseleleriyle yakından ilgilenmiştir. 1912 yılında İttihatçılarla düştüğü ihtilaf sonucunda istifa eden ve siyasî tarihini burada sonlandıran Said Paşa, 1914 yılında hayata gözlerini yummuştur. Sultan II. Abdülhamid ile olan yakınlığı, idarî anlamda ileriye sürdüğü fikirleri ve yaptığı bazı icraatlarından dolayı kendisine muhalif çevreler oluşturmuştur. Bu çevre içinde yer alan Mehmed Memduh Paşa, Said Paşa’ya olan düşüncülerini Esvât-ı Sudûr adlı eserinde uzun uzadıya kaleme almıştır. Çalışmada Said Paşa’ya karşı Mehmed Memduh Paşa tarafından yapılan ithamlara değinilip doğruluk payı olup olmadığı değerlendirilecektir.

Authors: Silva Ruiz Nicole Estefanía , Gavilanes Domínguez Christian Danilo
Published: June 2024

La eficacia de la administración pública es un principio importante que permite obtener resultados que no afecten de manera directa a las personas en el ejercicio de sus derechos. En la actualidad, el procedimiento para borrar las multas de tránsito del sistema de la ANT resulta un problema en su aplicación, en razón de que, los servidores públicos no las borran en el sistema después de conocer que el sospechoso ha sido ratificado en su estado de inocencia por los tribunales competentes. Por ello, al momento de realizar la matriculación de sus vehículos o trámites de renovación de licencia, aún se refleja la multa a pesar de haber presentado los documentos que lo demuestran, o a su vez, el tiempo del trámite es demasiado largo. En base a aquello, varias personas optan por pagar y continuar con el proceso. El objetivo de la presente es analizar la eficacia de la administración pública entorno a las sentencias de contravenciones de tránsito de la ciudad de Ambato. La metodología que se emplea es descriptiva y como método se aplica el analítico sintético. Las unidades de análisis se basan en la bibliografía documental, archivística y hemerográfica. Como resultado se determina que el proceso administrativo para la eliminación de multas de tránsito es ineficiente en la ciudad de Ambato, por tal motivo existe malestar en los ciudadanos y más aún retrasos entre entidades.

Published: June 2024

Η Λειτουργική Νευρολογική Διαταραχή (ΛΝΔ) είναι μία νευροψυχιατρική νόσος που προκαλείται από προβλήματα στη λειτουργία του νευρικού συστήματος, κατά την οποία οι ασθενείς εμφανίζουν νευρολογικά συμπτώματα, με αποτέλεσμα σοβαρή λειτουργική δυσλειτουργία και δυσφορία. Οι διάφοροι υπότυποι της ΛΝΔ κατηγοριοποιούν το ευρύ φάσμα ποικίλων συμπτωμάτων που είναι κοινά της ασθένειας, από κινητικά σε αισθητηριακά και γνωστικά. Το εύρος των συμπτωμάτων που βιώνουν σε συνάρτηση με συννοσηρότητες και παράγοντες κινδύνου όπως το άγχος και οι διαταραχές διάθεσης, καθιστούν ιδιαίτερα δύσκολη την σχεδίαση κατάλληλων εξατομικευμένων θεραπευτικών προγραμμάτων για ασθενείς με ΛΝΔ. Η βιβλιογραφία υποδεικνύει ότι η επιλογή πολυτροπικών θεραπευτικών προσεγγίσεων φαίνεται να μπορούν να χρησιμοποιηθούν με επιτυχία σε αυτό τον πληθυσμό, λόγω της δυνατότητας να ενσωματώνουν την σωματική φροντίδα με τις ψυχολογικές ανάγκες των ασθενών. Το κλινικό πρωτόκολλο MTFUND χρησιμοποιεί πολυτροπική δονητική-ακουστική μουσικοθεραπεία, κατά την οποία τα στοιχεία (δονητικήακουστική θεραπεία και ενεργητική μουσικοθεραπεία) ανταποκρίνονται στην ανάγκη για εξατομικευμένη φροντίδα εξαιτίας της ευέλικτης φύσης τους ως παρεμβάσεις παρέχοντας παράλληλα ένα συνεπές δομημένο πρωτόκολλο θεραπείας. Παρουσιάζεται το πρωτόκολλο MTFUND και σκιαγραφούνται λεπτομέρειες σχετικές με την τρέχουσα ερευνητική μελέτη. Για την αξιολόγηση του πρωτοκόλλου, πραγματοποιήσαμε ημιδομημένες συζητήσεις με ασθενείς και θεραπευτές. Διεξήχθησαν δύο ξεχωριστές επαγωγικές αναστοχαστικές θεματικές αναλύσεις για να εξεταστούν οι εμπειρίες τους. Οι θεματικές ενότητες που αναπτύσσονται συνεισφέρουν σε μία ολοκληρωμένη κατανόηση των εμπειριών των ασθενών με ΛΝΔ και των απόψεων των θεραπευτών σχετικά με την εφαρμογή του πρωτοκόλλου, συμβάλλοντας ουσιαστικά στην αξιολόγηση της αποτελεσματικότητας του πρωτοκόλλου.

АНТИБІЛЬШОВИЦЬКІ ПОВСТАННЯ НА ЛІВОБЕРЕЖЖІ КИЇВЩИНИ ПІД ЧАС ПОЛЬСЬКО-УКРАЇНСЬКО-РАДЯНСЬКОЇ ВІЙНИ 1920 р. У ХОДІ БОРОТЬБИ ЗА КИЇВ
Authors: Vasechko Oleksii
Published: June 2024

Антибільшовицький селянський рух є важливою складовою періоду Української революції 1917– 1922 рр. 25 квітня 1920 р. Військо Польське в союзі з Армією Української Народної Республіки (УНР) розпочали наступ в Україні проти більшовиків. У ході цього наступу в низці населених пунктів на лівобережжі Київщини вибухнули антибільшовицькі повстання. Обидва ці процеси, хоч і різною мірою, безпосередньо впливали одне на інше. Метою дослідження є спроба історичної реконструкції подій підчас цих повстань, доповнення й виправлення раніше відомих тверджень. Методи: історичний, проблемно-аналітичний. Наукова новизна полягає у використанні широкого кола джерел польсько-українсько-радянської війни 1920 р. для дослідження локальних подій антибільшовицького селянського руху. Висновки. У результаті польського наступу радянські війська відступили з Києва на лівий берег Дніпра, де зіткнулися із антибільшовицькими повстаннями місцевих жителів. Це напряму визначило долю повсталих населених пунктів. Скориставшись оперативною паузою, радянські війська рішуче придушили ці повстання. Підчас бойових дій на лівобережжі Київщини і польська, і радянська сторони контактували із місцевими повстанцями та залишили про це згадки. Аналіз цих згадок дає можливість краще зрозуміти обставини, учасників та характер боротьби місцевих жителів проти більшовиків.

Published: June 2024

Background: Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a multifaceted condition marked by challenges in communication and social interactions, behavioral restrictions, and repetitive actions. Identifying children who may be at risk of ASD early on is crucial for prompt consultation, monitoring, and intervention. Objectives: Determine the rate of Autism Spectrum Disorder in children between the ages of 18 and 36 months by utilizing the M-CHAT-R scale at the clinic of Can Tho Children's Hospital. And identify the associated risk factors for that rate of Autism Spectrum Disorder. Materials and methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study conducted on 608 children aged 18-36 months who were examined at the clinic of Can Tho Children's Hospital. Results: The majority of children in the study, comprising 88.3%, fell within the age range of 24-36 months, with proportions of boys and girls at 57.6% and 42.4%, respectively. Among the children, 94.7% (576/608 children) were classified as low risk, while medium risk and high risk accounted for 4.28% (26/608 children) and 1.02% (6/608 children), respectively. Questions with notably high positive rates among at-risk children were item 2 (38.9%), item 5 (15.2%), item 12 (16.2%), item 11 (4.8%). Conversely, the least common symptom was indicated in question 9, where children showed a preference for moving activities, accounting for only 2.7%. Associations were observed between the risk of Autism Spectrum Disorder and factors such as gender (p=0.04), father’age (p=0.024), alcohol consumption (p=0.047), birth asphyxia (p=0.036), seizures due to high fever/unknown cause (p=0.035). Conclusion: In the study, the rate of positive M-CHAT-R was 5.3% (32 out of 608 children), predominantly observed in the low-risk group, accounting for 94.7%. The majority of positive cases fell within the 24-36 month age group, comprising 26 out of the 32 children. The risk of Autism Spectrum Disorder showed correlations with gender, father’s age older or equal to 35 years old, alcohol consumption, birth asphyxia and seizures triggered by high fever or unknown causes. However, there was no observed relationship between the risk of Autism Spectrum Disorder and age group factors.

Published: June 2024

Background: Health education for patients is one of the essential tasks of physicians in patient care and treatment. To improve the effectiveness of health care and treatment, physicians must spend more time with patients. The interaction of physicians in performing health education for patients must be really enthusiastic, dynamic and responsive to the needs of each patient. Objectives: This study aims to describe the satisfaction of inpatients about the health education communication activities of physicians in clinical departments of university hospitals at Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital in June and July - 2023. Materials and methods: A convenience sample of 210 inpatients in 07 clinical departments at the time of discharge from the hospital was surveyed in this descriptive, cross – sectional study. Prepared questionnaires for faceto-face interviews with 37 questions (built by referencing documents related to health education communication for patients, and at the same time proposing some new elements for further study). Descriptive statistics were used to analyze data. Results: The majority of the patients were female, accounting for 57.14 %, the average age was 52.01 ± 2.3. Patients had a positive attitude toward thehealth educati on communication methods of physicians, with a score of 69.59 ± 15.73. Most patients received health education in the form of individual consultations, accounting for 95.71 %. The percentage of doctors providing health education consultation to patients was 59.62 %. Patients had a positive attitude toward the health education communication methods of physicians (69.59 ± 15.73), the mean score of patients' evaluation of health education communication activities was 28.89 ± 4.66 and the content of medical education communication was 32.17 ± 10.18. Conclusion: This study shows that patients have positive attitudes toward health education at clinical departments, but patients mainly expect doctors to be the ones to provide information and conduct health education for them. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a health education program for patients that pays attention to the central role of doctors.

Authors: Nguyen Thi Hoai Trang , Truong Nhu Y , Huynh Ngoc Trung Dung , Nguyen Phu Loc
Published: June 2024

Background: Bồng Nga truật, or Fingerroot, (Boesenbergia rotunda (L.) Mansf syn. Boesenbergia pandurata (Roxb.) Schltr.), also known as Ngải bún, is a common ginger species in Mekong Delta. Its tuber roots and rhizomes are often used to cook rice noodles as an alternative to Tumeric (Curcuma longa L.). Despite being used commonly in Indonesia and Thailand, the plant has not been used and researched as a herb in Vietnam. This research was for starting projects to increase the value of this species. Objectives: This study was to primarily describe morphological and microanatomical figures of Bồng Nga truật, together with characteristic figures in rhizome and tuber root powder. Materials and methods: The whole plant of Fingerroot, including rhizomes and tuber roots, was collected in Giong Rieng, Kien Giang. A portion of rhizomes and tuber roots was then cleansed and basked to dry in December 2019. Fresh samples were used for the microanatomy study, dried sample was pulverized for the powder study. All of the observations were done following general instructions in Vietnam Pharmacopoeia V. Results: The study described botanical figures of Bồng Nga truật sample in Giong Rieng, Kien Giang, including morphology, microanatomy of whole plant and characteristic particles in Bồng Nga truật rhizome and tuber root powders. The plant had common figures of Zingiberaceae and looked similar to Tumeric except for leaf sheath bases, flowers, and particular palmated tuber shapes. Microanatomy of leaf veins and leaf blades was characterized by large sub-rectangle secretory vesicles, V-shaped vascular bundles reinforced by hardened tissues on both sides. Rhizome and tuber root microanatomy were not specific. However, tubers of Fingerroot were more likely tuber root than colonial rhizome as referred. Similarly, particles found in powder samples were common among Zingiberaceae species. Conclusions: The sample has common morphological figures compared with one in Malaysia, and common figures of Zingiberaceae.

Authors: Huynh Thi My Duyen , Tran Huu Loc , Truong Phu Vinh , Tran Dung Tam , Huynh Thien Hai
Published: June 2024

Background: Valsartan, an angiotensin blocker, is often combined with amlodipine (a calcium channel antagonist) in the current treatment of hypertension. There is a generic brand-name drug Exforge® which has been proven to be clinically effective. However, its price is high, making it quite difficult to access, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Therefore, research and development of generic drugs is essential. In addition, research on simultaneous quantification of amlodipine and valsartan in the dissolution medium must be performed to serve as a basis for comparing in vitro equivalence between the two finished products. Objectives: Investigation of the mobile phase for separating amlodipine and valsartan using the isocratic elution method and validation of the simultaneous quantification of amlodipine and valsartan in three different dissolution media with pH of 1.2, 4.5, and 6.8. Materials and methods: Experimental methods on finished tablets containing amlodipine and valsartan. Results: A procedure for simultaneous quantification of amlodipine and valsartan has been developed and validated in three dissolution media using the HPLC method with DAD detector, ZORBAX Eclipse Plus C18 reversed-phase column (4.6 x 250 mm; 5m), isocratic elution method, detection wavelength of 237 nm, flow rate of 1 mL/min, an injection volume of 20 µL, and mobile phase composed of acetonitrile-triethylamine 0.7% (adjusted to pH 3.0 with 0.05% of phosphoric acid) with a ratio of 40:60. The quantitative method achieves linearity with a correlation coefficient R2>0.999 and the linearity for amlodipine and valsartan was determined in the range at pH of 1.2 (0.25-10 µg/mL and 2-160 µg/mL), at pH of 4.5 and 6.8 (0.5-10 µg/mL and 8-160 µg/mL). The values of amlodipine and valsartan content in the test sample on the same day and between two different days were less than 2.0%. The recovery rate ranged from 98% to 102% with the relative standard deviation (RSD) not exceeding 2.0%. Conclusions: The HPLC method with the above chromatographic conditions can be applied for simultaneous quantification of amlodipine and valsartan in three dissolution media with various pH.

Authors: Nguyen Thi Trang Dai , Lam Ngoc Yen , Luu Thi Nhu Y , Vo Pham Trinh Thu , Tang Nghiep Minh , Nguyen Phuc Hung
Published: June 2024

Background: The term “Entrepreneurship” refers to innovative, high-risk, and rapidly expanding business ventures that frequently need a substantial cash source. Most of the initial funding comes from individual savings or family’s financial support. The process of becoming an entrepreneur starts with identifying an opportunity and ends with creating a plan to take advantage of it. However, it has never been straightforward or simple to start a firm, particularly in the pharmaceutical sector. In order to initiate and maintain a profitable business, pharmacists must train themselves with business startup expertise. Objectives: To evaluate the knowledge and factors affecting the entrepreneurship of young pharmacists in the Mekong Delta from May 2023 to November 2023. Material and methods: To ascertain the viewpoints of 815 young pharmacists aged from 20 to under 40, this study used a cross-sectional descriptive design and conducted interviews with them, basing on the features of the research item, obtaining knowledge about entrepreneurship and identify some relevant elements. Results: Women made up 69.1% of the young pharmacist workforce, including the majority of college pharmacists (46.5%), university pharmacists (43.1%), and those with master or doctoral degrees (10.4%). 80% were familiar with entrepreneurship, and 90.1% believed that, in order to launch a successful business, entrepreneurs had to have a thorough understanding of the industry in which they planned to operate. 77.8% had high knowledge scores. Regard the total of knowledge scores by characteristics groups, it has been clearly seen in the study that the gender, economic, and educational variables had an impact on general knowledge (p<0.05); in which the college pharmacist category (429.76), along with the rich and the well-off (429.76) had the highest average rankings among the characteristic categories. Conclusions: The majority of young pharmacists in the Mekong Delta were aware of and fairly knowledgeable about entrepreneurship.

Authors: Nguyen Thi Ngoc Han , Tran Cong Toai , Lydia T. Mahahan , Lu Tri Dien , Nguyen Thi Thanh Truc
Published: June 2024

Background: Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) are complex conditions that appear in any healthcare facility. They truly become an economic and financial burden for the family and healthcare service system, particularly in developing countries. Nurses directly provide care for patients because they can be the cause of the spread of HAIs in healthcare institutions. Thus, nurses’ compliance with standard precautions plays a critical role in HAIs prevention efforts, especially in caring for children. Objectives: to examine compliance with standard precautions among pediatric nurses and related factors. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional descriptive correlational design was used. Sample size comprised of 285 pediatric nurses at selected government hospitals who have at least 6 months of experience as a nursing professional. Nurse’s adherence to standard precautions in caring was examined by using a 4-likert questionnaire including 20 items divided into 4 subscales as use of protective devices, disposal of sharps and waste, decontamination of spills and used articles, and prevention of cross-infection. Results: The age mean of nursing participants was 31.2 years. The overall compliance score was 3.16 (SD = 0.47) with 83.2% of nurses having good compliance with standard precautions. Among subscales of compliance, nurses’ practices with decontamination of spills and used articles had the highest scores. In contrast, the use of protective devices was the lowest. Besides, the study results showed a statistically significant relationship between nurses’ attitudes regarding HAIs prevention and their compliance with standard precautions (p<0.001). Meanwhile, there was no association between gender, level of education, experience in the year and standard precautions compliance. Conclusions: infection control practices with standard precautions among pediatric nurses were good. However, there were some aspects that should be improved. More related continuous training programs for nurses should be developed. Additionally, hospital administration and nurse managers should establish a system to regularly monitor and sustain compliance with infection control procedures among staff nurses as well as evaluate the suitability of HAIs prevention guidelines.
SELF-CARE AND PSYCHOLOGICAL WELL-BEING OF NURSES CARING FOR COVID-19 PATIENTS IN SELECTED HOSPITALS IN BINH DINH, VIETNAM
Authors: Tran Cong Toai , Bui Le Vi Chinh , Nguyen Thi Ngoc Han
Published: June 2024

Background: COVID-19’s emergence put unprecedented strain on Vietnam’s healthcare system, posing a variety of problems to the country’s nursing profession, potentially impacting nurses’ self-care and psychological well-being, and even putting their lives in jeopardy. When caring for many patients, nurses are constantly bombarded with information, producing cognitive overload in terms of safety. This has an influence on their physical and psychological well-being, as well as the risk of mistakes that compromise treatment quality and patient safety. Objectives: To assess the self-care, psychological well-being, and relationship between self-care and psychological well-being of nurse respondents caring for COVID-19 patients in selected hospitals in Binh Dinh, Vietnam. Materials and methods: A descriptive-correlational method was conducted on 180 nurses caring for COVID-19 patients from October 2022 to December 2022. Anchored on a four-point Likert scale, data were obtained using open-access and validated research instruments adopted from the self-care activities screening scale and psychological well-being assessment tool. SPSS software was used to process the data. Results: A total of 180 nurses participated in the study. The 135 participants were female, and 45 participants were male. Self-care was interpreted as "agree" in health consciousness, nutrition, physical activity, and sleep domains, with an overall mean of 3.21, 3.05, and 3.09, respectively. The psychological well-being was interpreted as "agree" in various domains, including autonomy, environmental mastery, personal growth, purpose in life, self-acceptance, and relations with others, with an overall mean of 2.81, 2.89, 3.09, 3.02, 2.85, and 2.89, respectively. Correlational analysis of the significant relationship on the assessment between self-care and psychological well-being of nurse respondents confirmed that: There was a statistically significant relationship between self-care and psychological well-being (p-value 0.000). Conclusions: The assessment of self-care and psychological well-being of nurses caring for COVID-19 patients in selected hospitals in Binh Dinh, Vietnam, confirmed that health consciousness was the strongest component of self-care, while nutrition was the weakest component of self-care; personal growth was the strongest component of psychological well-being, and autonomy was the weakest component of psychological well-being. Moreover, the significant relationships between the self-care and psychological well-being of nurse respondents caring for COVID-19 patients imply that an improvement in self-care would minimally enhance the psychological well-being of nurses.
IMMUNOGLOBULIN E IN PEDIATRIC ASTHMA: ADVANCES IN UNDERSTANDING AND MANAGEMENT
Authors: Huynh Hoang Khang , Nguyen Dinh Nguyen Chuong , Tran Cong Ly
Published: June 2024

Asthma, a pervasive chronic inflammatory ailment of the respiratory system, remains a global health conundrum. The Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD) of 2019 underscores its widespread impact, revealing that asthma afflicts 262 million individuals worldwide, translating into an age-standardized prevalence of 3,416 per 100,000 population. The incidence among children is particularly alarming, with nearly 14% of the global pediatric population diagnosed with the condition. This statistic positions asthma as the foremost chronic respiratory disease among children, a trend that is on the rise, especially across Asia and Europe, as evidenced by the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood (ISAAC). Characterized by variable airflow limitation, bronchial hyperresponsiveness, excessive mucus production, and airway inflammation leading to airway constriction, asthma’s multifaceted nature complicates its management. In the realm of immunology, Immunoglobulin E (IgE) has been identified as a pivotal player. Recognized officially as the fifth class of serum immunoglobulins during the 1968 WHO International Reference Center for Immunoglobulins conference in Lausanne, IgE’s crucial role in the pathophysiology of asthma has been rigorously studied. Serum IgE levels, both total and specific, have been proven instrumental in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of pediatric asthma. The landmark approval of Omalizumab by the US Food and Drug Administration in 2003 heralded a new era in the biologic management of asthma, targeting children aged six and above. This was followed by the development of Ligelizumab and Quilizumab, innovative anti-IgE medications currently under investigation for their potential to alleviate symptoms and decelerate the disease’s progression. The integration of Allergy Immunotherapy (AIT) alongside monoclonal antibody therapies like Omalizumab, Ligelizumab, and Quilizumab signifies a monumental shift toward personalized medicine in asthma care. These advances promise not only to ameliorate the quality of life for pediatric asthma patients but also to redefine the landscape of asthma management. Nonetheless, the quest for enhanced treatment modalities for young asthmatics necessitates further in-depth research. The burgeoning field of anti-IgE therapy, in concert with AIT, is poised to set new benchmarks in pediatric asthma management, steering us towards a future where asthma’s grip on children’s health is significantly loosened.

Helicobacter pylori is a bacterium associated with gastric diseases and disorders of the upper gastrointestinal tract. The gram-negative bacterium Helicobacter pylori is known as a persistent colonizer of the human stomach, and this bacteria is also involved in extra-intestinal diseases. In 1994, the International Agency for Research on Cancer, World Health Organization classified H. pylori as a class 1 carcinogen, the only bacterium given this classification. Besides, the emergence of H. pylori resistance to antibiotics has been a major clinical challenge in the field of gastroenterology, and this concern has been shown an increasing tendency in many regions of the world. To overcome the current circulating difficulties, new potential therapeutic targets were uncovered to find active substances for the treatment of H. pylori infection. Several medicinal plants and their isolated compounds have been reported for their antimicrobial activity against H. pylori. It is demonstrated that they are efficacious against H. pylori strains that are resistant to drugs. The mechanism of action of many of these plant extracts and plant-derived compounds is different from that of conventional antibiotics. Therefore, natural compounds are emerging as a potential source of raw materials with diverse mechanisms of action. Some commonly known mechanisms can be listed as anti-urease activity, anti-adhesive activity, anti-inflammatory and gastroprotective activity, and effects on the oxidative stress process. Recently, new classes of drugs with reasonable antibacterial mechanisms against H. pylori have also been mentioned, including (1) anti-biofilm agents, (2) anti-virulence molecules (anti-VacA, anti-CagA agents, toxin BabA and LPS inhibitors, anti-motility agents, Helicobacter pylori quorum sensing inhibitors), (3) mucolytic agents, and (4) compounds that impact on essential proteins in the physiology of H. pylori such as inosin-5‘monophosphate dehydrogenase and HsrA inhibitors. This review article aims to summarize current prospects, identify possible novel targets, and be considered as a complementary therapy in the eradication treatment against Helicobacter pylori.

Background: Knee osteoarthritis is a common disease in the group of bone and joint diseases. The incidence of the disease increases with age, commonly occurs in elderly patients or can also occur in young people. Diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis is mainly based on clinical symptoms combined with radiographs. Currently, ultrasound can be used to examine the damage that occurs in early-stage knee osteoarthritis. In addition, it has the ability to evaluate joint cartilage thickness, detect synovitis, joint effusion,... and abnormal features in other joint diseases of the knee, especially when there are no clinical manifestations or no damage on X-ray images. Objectives: To describe and compare ultrasonographic and radiographic findings in osteoarthritis-affected knee joints. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 50 patients and 62 knee joints diagnosed with osteoarthritis according to the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 1991 criteria. General characteristics, radiographic findings, and ultrasonographic findings in osteoarthritis-affected knee joints of participants were collected at Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy from May 2022 to April 2023. Results: Radiographs showed the most common finding was grade 1 osteophytes. The most common feature found on ultrasound was also grade 1 osteophytes. Medial condyle osteophytes and lateral condyle osteophytes: Grade 1 was the most common finding, with 53.2% and 58.1%. Medial tibial plateau osteophytes and lateral tibial plateau osteophytes: Grade 1 was the most common finding, with 54.8% and 50.0%. Medial compartment joint space narrowing: grade 1 was the most common (41.9%). Lateral compartment joint space narrowing was not found (grade 0) in 64.5%. In addition, ultrasound detected synovitis in patients with knee osteoarthritis, accounting for a fairly high rate of 87.1%. There was moderate agreement between osteophyte and joint space narrowing grading on ultrasound and radiographs. Conclusion: There was moderate agreement between osteophyte and joint space narrowing grading on ultrasound and radiographs. Ultrasound can also detect and evaluate synovitis that may not be seen on radiographs. We recommend using the ultrasonography atlas created for knee osteophyte detection in routine knee ultrasound.

The development and implementation of a competent Accounting Information System (AIS) is essential to the successful performance and operational efficacy of organisations, particularly in situations when management requires information that is both consistent and accurate in order to make important decisions. However, the precise criteria that underpin the applicability of information, as supplied by AIS, remain insufficiently defined. This is especially true in the context of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs) in the state of Perlis. The primary purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between financial performance, management performance, and organisational performance towards the usefulness of AIS in the context of SMEs. In detail, financial performance, management performance and organisational performance have been tested as the predictors of the usefulness of AIS towards the performance of SMEs this study. A self-administered questionnaire was used as the study sample in this investigation. The questionnaire was filled out by 233 respondents from SMEs in the state of Perlis. Results presented that a high correlation between AIS and financial performance (r=0.733). Also, results presented moderate corrections between AIS and management performance (r=0.631) as well as AIS and organisational performance (r=0.657. In conclusion, this research proposed a number of suggestions, the most significant of which was to draw more attention to the fact that AIS are useful for achieving an effective performance in the SMEs, particularly in Perlis.

In today’s society, slang terms are often used in communication. Slang is a colloquial form of language used to shorten and simplify communication. The purpose of this study is to analyze the slang words contained in Charlie Puth’s selected song. Based on Yule’s theory, this study examines the process of slang creation (1895: 51-55). This study makes use of the Chapman-proposed primary class of slang words (2007: 8). The approach used in this study is a qualitative descriptive method in order to make the data used and the research problem clear. The information was gathered by reading the song lyrics, scanning them for slang terms, and then making a note of those terms that were included in Charlie Puth’s song lyrics. The results of this study indicate there are 18 main slang words found in 8 song lyrics by Charlie Puth. In this study can be found 4 Blending, 8 Clipping, 1 Compounding, 2 Coinage, 1 Borrowing, and 2 Acronym. In this study, because using the clipping process makes words simpler, faster, and quicker to explain things, slang terms are often used in song lyrics.
Os sem sentimento: associação para o tráfico da culpa e a reincidência
Authors: Oliveira Gustavo Rebelo Coelho de , Monteiro Pierre de Souza
Published: June 2024

Em nosso dispositivo de escuta numa unidade socioeducativa de internação, encontramos uma pista disparadora da proposta teórica que aqui apresentamos. A expressão “tropa do fuzil sem sentimento”, escrita sobre uma mesa, mobiliza este trabalho. Em sua estrutura linguística, em sua presença na cultura funk, assim como na fala dos meninos, partimos dela para uma interpretação psicanalítica, a partir dos conceitos de projeção, identificação, negação, medo social e culpa em Freud, assim como de verdade em Lacan. Articulados ainda à ideia de necropolítica em Mbembe e da corporeidade como a origem do medo no racismo contra o negro em Fanon, sugerimos que é perseguindo o manejo inconsciente da culpa que podemos revelar a estrutura de nosso sistema social. Um sistema, que nossa interpretação conclui operar, sob o manto protetor da santificação do prefixo “sócio”, aqui entendido como a marca do recalque, para a reincidência, instituindo tratamentos para a repetição do sintoma.

Penelitian ini dilatar belakangi oleh kurangnya penerapan nilai-nilai Islam dalam penggunaan kurikulum di sekolah. Kurikulum sendiri merupakan seperangkat rancangan pembelajaran yang dibuat guna mencapai tujuan dalam sebuah pendidikan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode deskriptif yang ditelusuri melalui wawancara dan studi dokumen guna mendapatkan data penelitian. Informan yang terlibat dalam wawancara ini adalah kepala sekolah, wakasek kurikulum uum dan pesantren, guru Bahasa Indonesia dan juga guru Bahas Sunda dari SMA Plus Al- Aqsha Jatinangor. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian SMA Plus Al-Aqsha merupakan sekolah berbasis pesantren atau boarding school yang memadukan 4 kurikulum diantaranya kurikulum umum ,kurikulum KMMI (Kuliyyatul Mualimin wal Mualimat al-Islamiyah), kurikulum salafi, dan kurikulum tahfidz. Dalam menjalankan kegiatan di SMA Plus Al-Aqsha tidak terlepas dari nilai-nilai Islam seperti niali aqidah, nilai syariah dan nilai akhlak.  Meskipun terbilang memadukan kurikulum yang tidak sedikit namun itu bukan sebuah kendala karena pembelajaran yang berlangsung tidak hanya mengandalkan pembelajaran secara formal di dalam kelas saja. Dengan penggunaan kurikulum yang terpadu seperti ini justru nilai yang menjadi nilai plus di sekolah ini sehingga para siswanya dapat menerapkan nilai-nilai Islam secara lebih mendalam dalam kegiatan sehari-harinya. Hasil dari penggunaan kurikulum yang terpadu atau terintegrasi ini terlihat dan terasa terdapat perubahan dari para siswa ke arah yang lebih baik terutama dalam segi ibadah dan juga karakter.
