Published: September 2023

El desarrollo del conocimiento siempre ha dado lugar a posibilidades de colaboración, en sus diversos matices. Sin embargo, los entornos académicos, sociales y económicos nunca han sido tan propicios para las acciones efectivamente emprendidas y, por tanto, tan prometedores, como en nuestros días, especialmente en las ciencias básicas. La literatura en esta área viene presentando aportes analíticos y críticos, que sustentan el estado del arte de este conocimiento. Así, resaltan sus posibilidades de promoción, además de brindar resultados más compatibles con las necesidades sociales, humanas y económicas de las personas (Odell, Dyer Klett (2023).
Competência do juiz para análise do plano de recuperação judicial: importância, possibilidade, limites e critérios
Authors: De Freitas Gouvêa Marcus , Diogo Luz Reinaldo
Published: September 2023

Na análise de viabilidade do plano de recuperação judicial, os credores defendem seus próprios interesses, e não são obrigados a observar os fins públicos previstos pela lei falimentar. Neste cenário, surge a possibilidade de um conflito entre o interesse dos credores e os demais objetivos previstos na Lei de Recuperação de Empresa e Falência, bem como a possibilidade de efetiva lacuna no direito brasileiro, ao não disciplinar o papel do juiz na homologação da recuperação judicial. O presente artigo analisa a importância do controle judicial da viabilidade econômica do plano de recuperação judicial e, a partir do direito comparado, investiga os limites e critérios deste controle no direito brasileiro. Na ausência de definição expressa da lei, o artigo sugere as bases para controle judicial, de forma a não exigir análises complexas do juiz nem excluir os credores da participação no processo decisório.

Authors: Duarte Luciana Gaspar Melquíades , Castro Yuran Quintão
Published: September 2023

Pretendeu-se investigar se a telessaúde poderia ser implementada como política pública de saúde no contexto brasileiro. Como hipótese, considerou-se que seria possível, desde que houvesse o adequado planejamento administrativo para  tanto. Mediante metodologia de pesquisa indutiva e qualitativa, houve o levantamento crítico-reflexivo do estado da arte e a análise documental de regramentos sobre a matéria. Constatou-se que a telessaúde poderia ser inserida como uma política pública na área da saúde, frente à legislação específica publicada, além das contribuições que ela ocasiona ao setor, bem como a partir da modalidade de contratação com o setor privado adequada para tanto, em que se apontou a parceria público-privada. Trata-se de recorte de pesquisa incipiente, mas inovador, diante das publicações na seara do Direito.
Les feedbacks réguliers permettent-ils de donner du sens à la note obtenue ?
Authors: Madrid Catherine , Chérel Laurence
Published: September 2023

L’article présente un dispositif pédagogique d'accompagnement individualisé pour l'acquisition de compétences au sein d’un enseignement d’une ressource majeure d’un programme BUT dans un IUT. Dans ce contexte, les auteurs s’interrogent à propos de la perception comparée des évaluations formative et sommative par les étudiants. Leur pratique réflexive les conduit à mener des enquêtes régulières auprès des étudiants dont elles présentent les résultats. Leurs conclusions permettent de se rendre compte que l’évaluation qualitative formative génère chez les étudiants une incompréhension à l’égard de l’évaluation sommative. Elles formulent l’hypothèse que l’acculturation de leurs étudiants à une évaluation formative peut brouiller leurs repères : comment dès lors les aider à comprendre le lien entre leurs erreurs et le degré d’écart avec les attendus engendrant une note insatisfaisante ?

The use of newly formed minerals to characterize geothermal reservoirs and their cap rock: examples from intracontinental extensional basins and volcanic islands in subduction context
Authors: Ledésert Béatrice A.
Published: September 2023

Geothermal energy aims at harnessing the heat of the Earth to produce energy, from the near-surface to great depths. Emphasis is put on geothermal reservoirs in crystalline rocks, hence vol-canic islands and crystalline basements of sedimentary basins based on three examples world-wide. Hot brines circulate in those rocks and are responsible for their hydrothermal alteration because of fluid-rock interactions. This includes dissolution of preexisting minerals and crystal-lization of newly formed ones which provide many information of crucial importance for a better exploration of those reservoirs. For example, the crystallization of clay minerals results from the dissolution of preexisting minerals (feldspar and ferro-magnesian minerals in plutonic, volcanic or metamorphic rocks) or from the direct precipitation from geothermal brines, in specific condi-tions. Clay minerals are found in both the geothermal reservoirs and in the clay-cap found above them. Other newly formed minerals such as quartz, carbonates or sulfates have also recorded the conditions of temperature and salinity encountered by fossil reservoirs which can be evaluated thanks to the study of fluid inclusions trapped during their crystallization. This paper presents results from several geothermal deep sites and surface analogues to pinpoint the role played by newly-formed minerals in the characterization of geothermal reservoirs and their cap-rock.

Published: September 2023

In the literature, it is well known the correlation between poor semen quality and DNA sperm integrity, which can turn into negative outcomes in terms of embryo development and clinical pregnancy. Sperm selection plays a pivotal role in clinical practice and the most widely used methods are mainly based on sperm motility and morphology. The cumulus oophorus complex (COC) during natural fertilization represents a barrier that spermatozoa must overcome to reach the zona pellucida and fertilize the oocyte. Spermatozoa that can pass through the COC have better structural and metabolic characteristics as well as enhanced acrosome reaction (AR). The present study aimed to evaluate the exposure of sperm to cumulus cell secretome during swim-up treatment (SUC), compared to the routinely used swim-up method (SU). To determine the effectiveness of this method biological factors critical for the ability of sperm to fertilize an oocyte, including capacitation, AR, tyrosine phosphorylation signature, DNA integrity, and mitochondrial functionality were assessed. The SUC selection assures recovery of high-quality spermatozoa, with enhanced mitochondrial functionality and motility compared to both SU-selected or unselected (U) sperm. Furthermore, by this modified swim-up procedure significantly reduced sperm DNA damage (p<0.05) was detected. In conclusion, the SUC approach is a more physiological and integrated method for sperm selection that deserves further investigation for its translation into clinical practice.

Published: September 2023

Background. Human Milk (HM) is a dynamic nourishment: its composition is influenced by several conditions such as gestational age, maternal diet and ethnicity. It appears important evaluate the impact that gestational diseases have on HM components and if their presence, as source of oxidative stress in the mother, influence milk’s redox homeostasis. To assess Preeclampsia (PE) and Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) effect on milk’s total oxidative load, we chose to investigate both oxidative and antioxidant aspects, with respectively Lipid hydrop-eroxides (LOOHs) and Glutathione (GSH)). Methods. GSH and LOOHs were quantified using an ELISA test. To investigate the effect of pathology on redox homeostasis, mixed linear model with unistructural covariance structure was performed. Results. A total of 120 mothers were re-cruited. The GSH concentration results significant lower in GDM women than in healthy only in colostrum (p<0.01). No other differences emerged. LOOHs was not detectable in almost all the samples. Discussion. Our study is the first to extensively evaluate these components in the HM of women with these gestational pathologies. The main observation is that GDM can alter the anti-oxidant composition of HM mainly in colostrum, but in case of PE, the composition of HM milk is preserved.

Authors: Hormozi Jangi Saeed Reza
Published: September 2023

Considering higher stability and lower cost of nanozymes than native enzymes, the nanozymatic systems had been utilized for several practical application, especially for sensing and detection. Most of common nanozymatic sensors are single-nanozyme based systems, however, recently a new generation of nanozyme-based systems called “multinanozyme system’ was introduced by Hormozi Jangi et al. (2020). Since the first report of multinanozyme systems, several multinaozyme systems have been developed and utilized for highly sensitive and selective sensing aims. The main advantages of multinaozyme systems compared of common nanozymatic sensors are their impact on simultaneous enhancing selectivity and sensitivity of sensor in a well-designed detection process. Since, the principles of design and detection mechanism of this new generation is not well-described in the literature, the aim of this article is the fast review of the principles of design of this new generation of nanozyme-based sensing and detection.
Can Overtourism at Heritage Attractions Really Be Sustainably Managed? Lights and Shadows of the Experience at the Site of the Alhambra and Generalife (Spain)
Authors: García-Hernández María , Calle-Vaquero Manuel de la , Chamorro-Martínez Victoria
Published: September 2023

For a number of years heritage resources have suffered the negative effects of tourist pressure. Overtourism has been generating a wide-ranging debate on this issue. This work focuses on the strategies and measures adopted to address overtourism during the last 30 years in heritage attractions, which are much less studied than urban heritage centres. Specifically, it analyses measures relating to the management of site capacities, based on the concept of tourist carrying capacity, using the content analysis as a methodology. We have used the Alhambra in Granada as a case study, as one of the most visited Spanish World Heritage Sites. The results obtained reflect a strong consensus on the need to introduce measures to restrict tourist activity, although these measures imply a great effort in terms of management and tend to be taken advantage of by some stakeholders for their own benefit. The extensive time frame of the measures adopted allows us to reflect on the possibilities and limitations of dealing with overtourism by using capacity management strategies, and to extract useful conclusions for other heritage sites with similar problems.

Background: Accurate estimation of dietary intake is challenging. But whilst some progress has been made in high-income countries, low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) remain behind, contributing to critical nutritional data gaps. This study aimed to validate an objective, passive image-based dietary intake assessment method against weighed food records in London, UK for onward deployment to LMICs. Methods: Wearable camera devices were used to capture food intake of eating occasions in 18 adults and 17 children of Ghanaian and Kenyan origin living in London. Participants were provided pre-weighed meals of Ghanaian and Kenyan cuisine and camera devices to automatically capture images of the eating occasions. Food images were assessed for portion size, energy, and nutrient intake, and relative validity of the method compared to the weighed food records. Results: Pearson and Intra-class correlation coefficient of estimates of intakes of food, energy and 19 nutrients ranged from 0.60 to 0.95 and 0.67 to 0.90, respectively. Bland-Altman analysis showed good agreement between the image-based method and weighed food record. Under-estimation of dietary intake by the image-based method ranged from 4 to 23%. Conclusions: Passive food image capture and analysis provides an objective assessment of dietary intake comparable to weighed food records.
Posture Optimization in Robot Machining with Kinematic Redundancy for High-Precision Positioning
Authors: Tajima Shingo , Iwamoto Satoshi , Yoshioka Hayato
Published: September 2023

Vertically articulated industrial robots are suitable for machining purposes owing to their advantages over multi-axis machine tools, such as larger workspace, easier installation, and lower cost. However, the rigidity and positioning accuracy of industrial robots are inferior to those of machine tools, which renders it difficult to maintain the robot posture required for machining operations. This study focuses on improving the accuracy of robot machining based on posture optimization by exploiting the kinematic redundancy of a six-axis vertically articulated robot. To decrease positioning errors caused by static and dynamic external forces during machining, this study proposes a path generation method for a redundant joint that simultaneously considers the static and dynamic rigidity of the machining robot. The relationships between the static and dynamic mechanical characteristics of the machining robot and the redundant angle are illustrated using two maps: a static stiffness map and a natural frequency map. Using these two maps in the proposed path generation method, the redundant angle that can be selected for the robot posture with arbitrary mechanical characteristics is selected. Experimental results confirm that the proposed path generation method can control the priority of reducing static positioning error and vibration amplitude by changing the weight coefficients. In addition, the proposed method can improve positioning accuracy compared with conventional trajectory generation methods for redundant robots.
Pendekatan Strukturalisme dan Praktik Triangulasi di dalam Penelitian Sastra
Authors: Nugraha Dipa
Published: September 2023

Berdasarkan penelusuran, beberapa akademisi sastra Indonesia terdapati telah tidak tepat di dalam menerapkan pendekatan strukturalisme di dalam penelitian sastra. Akademisi sastra Indonesia lainnya ditemukan telah menggunakan istilah triangulasi di dalam penelitian mereka dengan keliru. Artikel ini adalah artikel kajian pustaka sistematis. Pustaka yang relevan dengan topik pendekatan strukturalisme dan triangulasi disarikan dan diletakkan di dalam konteks penelitian sastra. Artikel ini memberikan kesimpulan bahwa ketidaktepatan penerapan pendekatan strukturalisme terjadi pada penghentian langkah pengkajian hanya pada tahapan awal dari pendekatan strukturalisme, yaitu identifikasi unsur-unsur pembangun karya sastra, tanpa kelanjutan pada tahap pengulasan mendalam dan tindak analisis hubungan antarunsur. Adapun kekeliruan pemahaman atas dan ketidaktepatan penggunaan istilah triangulasi di dalam penelitian sastra di Indonesia bisa diatasi dengan pembacaan cermat atas buku rujukan utama dari penggunaan triangulasi yang sebenarnya berlaku di dalam penelitian sosial dengan judul The Research Act: A Theoretical Introduction to Sociological Methods karya Norman Denzin.
Masculinity and Femininity Symbols in South China Buddhist Temples: Psycho-Anthropological Perspective
Authors: Anas Ahmadi
Published: September 2023

Studies on masculinity in the last ten years have increased along with men's awareness of themselves. The study of masculinity is in opposition to the study of femininity. In this regard, this research intersects both of them, namely the study of masculinity and femininity in the Quan Yin temple in China. This research explores the Quan Yin symbols in the Southern Chinese (Mahayana Buddhist) Temples. This study uses a psycho-anthropological perspective. This research with a qualitative approach uses data from the architecture of the Quan Yin Temple. Data collection techniques refer to ethnographic studies, namely (1) observation, (2) photography, (3) recording, and (4) interviewing. The results of the study show that the structure that appears in Quan Yin symbolism is a dyadic structure that is divided into oppositions of (i) temples with pagodas without pagodas, (ii) masculine-feminine, (iii) strong-gentle, (iv) closed (introversion)-open (extroversion), and (v) anima -animus. Meanwhile, in terms of the collective mediation function of symbolism, it is shown that Quan Yin has symbolism, which shows that Quan Yin is indeed the highest and surpasses gods or goddesses. Therefore, Quan Yin can manifest/become anything to help mankind on Earth. This research universally shows that masculinity and femininity are also present in religious symbols. Both masculinity and femininity are nondualities that cannot be separated. This concept is almost the same as yin and yang in Chinese human philosophy.

The estimated prevalence of postpartum depression differs in developed and developing countries. Due to the increasing number of cases in developing countries like Indonesia, postpartum depression has become a serious issue. This study aimed to identify factors influencing postpartum depression in Bandar Lampung, Indonesia, in 2023 using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale instrument. This study employed a cross-sectional design with a sample size of 251 respondents, selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria using a purposive sampling technique. The multiple logistic regression results indicated that women with abortion records had a three times higher risk (95% CI = 1.394–7.648; p-value = 0.013) of experiencing postpartum depression after controlling for other variables (record of depression, employment status, education, and family support). Postpartum women should be followed by midwives and given regular assistance from their loved ones, such as their spouse or family, to prevent depression. These experts can monitor the mother’s well-being and share information on maternal and infant health.

Published: September 2023

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is transmitted through the bites of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes and is still becoming endemic in Bogor District. This quantitative correlation study with an ecological approach aimed to analyze how DHF incidence is influenced by climate factors, population density, Larvae Free Rate (LFR), and the area altitude factor. Secondary data were obtained from the Bogor Regency Health Office; the Central Bureau of Statistics of Bogor District; and the Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency. In this study, the spatial analysis method was also used, but only on the area altitude factor. The study’s results showed a significant relationship between climate factors, such as air humidity at a Time Lag of 0 months (r=0.394) and the altitude factor (r=-0.350), and DHF incidence in the Bogor District from 2017 to 2022. Spatial data shows that in districts with lower altitudes, such as Cibinong, Cileungsi, and Gunung Putri, DHF incidence tends to be higher. The Bogor District Health Office, together with the community, may enhance efforts to prevent and control DHF, especially during seasonal transitions and in areas with lower altitudes. Cross-sector collaboration with the Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency is also necessary to remain vigilant during climate fluctuations.

The underdiagnosis and underreporting of tuberculosis (TB) indicators are unresolved problems. The rapid molecular test (RMT) is one of the breakthroughs for TB case finding by using safer and more sensitive equipment; it is even believed to help find drug-resistant TB. The results of several webinars held regularly by a TB program as well as its evaluation and the use of RMT formed the basis of this study. This initial pilot study aimed to provide an overview of case finding for both drug-sensitive and drug-resistant TB using RMT. A cross-sectional study was conducted on samples in several provinces in Indonesia that have used RMT, both in remote or non-remote island borders areas and fiscal capacity. Regarding the use of RMT for drug-sensitive TB case finding, the largest contributors were males aged above 15 years, while in the drug-resistant TB case finding group, the biggest contributor was the use of RMT in 2017 and 2018. Overall, the findings could only describe the situation in the study area. The use of RMT in drug-sensitive TB case finding would be maximized if the detected cases are males aged above 15 years, while RMT can help find cases of drug-resistant TB.

Premature babies lose four times more heat than those with sufficient birth weight. Moreover, their body temperature regulation center does not function properly. This study aimed to investigate Kangaroo Mother Care's effect in increasing premature babies' thermoregulation during the COVID-19 pandemic at Hospital A in Malang City, Indonesia. This study was a case report with data from follow-up checks on premature babies discharged from the hospital. The Kangaroo Mother Care method, carried out by the mother, increased the thermoregulation of premature babies' temperature by 0.2ᴼC compared to the father. It was because women have a slightly higher body temperature than men. The comfortable body temperature for women was 2.5ᴼC higher than for men. Men had a lower body mass of fat, so it took an average longer time for metabolism. The Kangaroo Mother Care procedure, especially when done by the mother, can increase the body temperature of premature babies by conduction.

Good adolescent mental health is a good investment for a country. During the COVID-19 pandemic, many adolescents did not carry out productive activities, possibly changing their mental health. Experiential learning facilitates metacognition, shapes adolescent cognitive processes, improves performance and problem-solving, and makes learning more meaningful and authentic. This study aimed to explore adolescents' mental health conditions and how experiential learning affects adolescents' mental health. Using a qualitative approach, the data collection through Google Forms questionnaire, FGDs, and interviews using the HEADSS instrument was conducted in September 2022 in Kebon Gedang Village, Batununggal Subdistrict, Bandung City, West Java Province, Indonesia. This study involved 73 adolescents aged 10-19 years as population. Still, only 59 participants were valid as a sample and willing to participate in making oil-based soap as a change for the monthly activity held by Integrated Health Care. The results showed that experiential learning by making oil-based soap at home improved adolescents' mental health by 80%. Following the learning objectives, this activity developed adolescents into healthy and economically successful individuals while significantly contributing to their community.

This article aims to examine the selection of words and pronunciations that have a very subtle difference between the words that are similar and that correspond to the meaning in the holy book Al-Quran Al-Karim and to explore the secrets of the selection of these pronunciations in terms of the study of I'jaz lughowi and I'jaz Bayani. Every word used in the Quran carries a certain meaning that cannot be fulfilled by other words and has special features from the point of view of the science of bayan and the science of meaning. With this study, we can study the Quran so that we can experience the greatness of the Quran and the pleasure of interacting with the verses of Allah. This study compares two figures of different eras who were famous in the debate on the science of balaghah, namely, Khattabi and A'isyah Abdulrahman. Khattabi and A'isyah Abdulrahman think that eloquence and language style are miracles of the Quran. Balaghah is the appropriateness of eloquent and clear words to a person's situation and condition and being able to express it with a beautiful arrangement as well as giving the influence of the soul to it. The researcher used a descriptive-analytical methodology in examining the selection of words and phrases such as those that have very subtle differences in the Quran from the side of khatabbi and A'isyah Abdul Rahman.

Risky health behaviours are expressions of masculinity for men and may be a cause of their high health risks relative to those of their female counterparts. A total of 955 archived serum samples were analysed for anti-HEV immunoglobulin M (IgM) and immunoglobulin G (IgG) using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). This study examined the prevalence of HEV in archived serum samples from the Subang Men's Health Study, in which samples were randomly collected from an affluent township in Malaysia, to determine the prevalence of anti-HEV IgG antibodies. The anti-HEV IgG prevalence of the overall sample was 11.5% (95% CI, 9.6–13.7). Statistically significant differences in the prevalence of IgG anti-HEV antibodies were only found in regard to age-group categories and ethnicity. Seroprevalence rates increased gradually with age. The age group 61–87 years was found to have an over 3-fold higher risk of HEV seropositivity than those aged 40–50 years (OR = 3.43, 95% CI 1.76–6.70). Men with Chinese ethnicity had a nearly 27-fold higher risk of HEV seropositivity than those of Malay ethnicity (OR = 26.99, 95% CI 6.57–110.86). No other statistically significant associations were observed between other variables and HEV seropositivity. Our findings suggest that men in urban townships may have high seroprevalence rates of HEV. In particular, a high anti-HEV seroprevalence rate was found among Chinese men, and the prevalence increased with age.

Background: The order Lepidoptera has an abundance of species, including both agriculturally beneficial and detrimental insects. Based on molecular data, the phylogenetic relationships of the major subdivisions of Lepidoptera have been investigated, contributing to the understanding of the evolutionary relationships at the superfamily and family levels. However, the phylogenetic placement of many superfamilies and/or families in this order is still unknown. In this study, we determine the systematic status of the family Argyresthiidae within Lepidoptera and explore its phylogenetic affinities and implications for the evolution of the order. We describe the first mitochondrial (mt)genome from a member of Argyresthiidae, the apple fruit moth Argyresthia conjugella. The insect is an important pest on apples in Fennoscandia, as it switches hosts when the main host fails to produce crops.
Results: The mt genome ofA. conjugella contains 16,044 bp and encodes all 37 genes generally found in insect mt genomes, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs, and a large control region (1101 bp). The nucleotide composition was extremely AT-rich (82%). All detected PCGs (13) began with an ATN codon and terminated with a TAA stop codon, except the start codon in cox1 is ATT. All 22 tRNAs had cloverleaf secondary structures, except tRNAS1, where one of the dihydrouridine (DHU) arms is missing, reflecting potential differences in gene expression. When compared to the mt genomes of 507 other Lepidoptera representing 18 superfamilies and 42 families, phylogenomic analyses found that A. conjugella had the closest relationship with the Plutellidae family (Yponomeutoidea-super family). We also detected a sister relationship between Yponomeutoidea and the superfamily Tineidae.
Conclusions:Our results underline the potential importance of mt genomes in comparative genomic analyses of Lepidoptera species and provide robust evolutionary insight across the tree of Lepidoptera species.

Background: Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are at an elevated risk for cancer, especially hematologic malignancies, such as lymphoma, and leukemia. Several studies that have already reported are limited to assess cancer incidence after SLE diagnosis. However, SLE can be also diagnosed after cancer although there were rare cases reported in children so far.
Case presentation: A 2.6-year-old boy presented with fever and abdominal pain, was found to have a periumbilical mass in physical examination and was pathologically diagnosed as Burkitt’s lymphoma. In order to consolidate the effect of chemotherapy and reduce the relapse of cancer, autologous stem cell transplantation was performed for him. During the follow-up time of 5 years later, he was diagnosed with SLE due to fever with rash, positive autoantibodies, decreased complement, and kidney involvement. At the last follow-up, he is alive with no recurrence of Burkitt’s lymphoma and no disease activity of SLE.
Conclusion:In spite of the low frequency of SLE in children with lymphoma, this process may be induced by some common mechanism, including B cell clone and proliferation. So, hematologists and rheumatologists should be alert to the occurrence of both cancer and SLE during the follow-up of patients.

Published: September 2023

Background: Preeclampsia is a major contributor to maternal and perinatal mortality and morbidity worldwide particularly in low-income countries like Uganda. The World Health Organization recommends screening and initiating all pregnant women at high risk for pre-eclampsia on low-dose Aspirin. However, it is not known whether health workers in Uganda are aware of its application and whether they use the drug use in preventing pre-eclampsia.
Aim of the study: The study aimed at assessing the knowledge and self-reported practices of health workers on the use of low-dose aspirin in preventing pre-eclampsia among high-risk pregnant women in two districts in Western Uganda. Additionally, the study aimed to establish alternative approaches health workers use to prevent preeclampsia in high-risk pregnant women.
Methods: The study employed a descriptive cross-sectional study design. Data were collected using a participant self-administered questionnaire from 136 health workers in Mbarara and Bushenyi districts. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 18.
Results: The majority of participants (63%) were aware that preeclampsia is preventable. However, only 18 percent of participants reported having ever prescribed low-dose aspirin for pregnant women at high risk for preeclampsia. Participants reported using various drugs methyldopa, nifedipine, magnesium sulfate, and others to prevent and manage pre-eclampsia.
Conclusion:This study was done in 2018. The study identified significant knowledge gaps on preeclampsia prevention, low-dose aspirin prescription, and screening for pregnant women at risk for preeclampsia among health workers in southwestern Uganda. Health workers reported using other drugs that are not recommended in the prevention of pre-eclampsia.
