Published: November 2024

Introduction: Rare vascular abnormalities called renal arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) can cause hematuria among other symptoms. Due to overlapping clinical and radiological symptoms, differentiating between renal AVMs and other disorders such renal cell carcinoma (RCC) can be difficult. Here, we report a case of a patient who developed hematuria and was first diagnosed with renal AVM. We go over the difficulties in diagnosing this ailment and the approaches to managing it. Case Presentation: A 34-year-old female patient, reported having hematuria with clots for one week, coupled with fever and left loin discomfort that persisted for four and one day, respectively. Her hemoglobin level was 4.5 g/dL at arrival, which required packed red cell transfusions. A left double-J stent was implanted after an emergency cystoscopy revealed bloody efflux from the left ureteric orifice. A potential arteriovenous malformation in the left kidney's upper pole area was discovered by further imaging. A cirsoid-type AV abnormality arising from the superior polar branch of the renal artery was verified by renal angiography. After therapeutic embolization, the patient's symptoms were relieved and hematuria stopped. Discussion: The case study highlights the need of taking renal AVMs into account when making a differential diagnosis for hematuria, especially if there haven't been any previous urological operations. It also emphasises how important imaging techniques like renal angiography and renal ultrasonography with Doppler are for making the right diagnosis. Distinctive diagnosis from other ailments, such as renal cell carcinoma, highlights the necessity of comprehensive assessment and monitoring to guarantee suitable treatment. Conclusion: Renal arteriovenous malformations are rare but important causes of hematuria. Prompt diagnosis and management are crucial to prevent complications and improve patient outcomes. This case report demonstrates the diagnostic challenges associated with renal AVMs and underscores the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in their evaluation and treatment.

Published: November 2024

Introduction: Marine habitats harbor the gram-negative, halophilic Vibrio alginolyticus. Usually connected with aquatic life, it poses a serious health risk to humans, especially seafood and marine workers. Marine economic animals like prawns, fish, and shellfish can develop serious illnesses with rapid progression and significant fatality rates. Pathogenic relatives such as Vibrio cholerae and Vibrio parahaemolyticus, which carry genes for several virulence factors, have inherited its virulence, thereby increasing its clinical importance. No effective treatments exist to stop V. alginolyticus dissemination and infection; therefore, studying its virulence mechanisms is crucial to understanding its pathogenicity and improving prevention and therapy.
Objectives: To analyze the virulence factors and antibiotic resistance mechanisms of Vibrio alginolyticus to improve prevention and control strategies for managing infections in aquaculture and public health settings.
Methods: This study is a literature review synthesising findings from recent research on V. alginolyticus. Sources include peer-reviewed articles, clinical studies, and microbiological research focusing on virulence factors and antibiotic resistance. Data collection involved searching databases like PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, filtering for studies on V. alginolyticus’s virulence mechanisms, antibiotic resistance, and impacts on public health and aquaculture. We selected key studies to gain a comprehensive understanding of the pathogenic characteristics and resistance profiles of the bacterium.
Results: The results show that V. alginolyticus uses many ways to be strong, like quorum sensing, making virulence proteins, secreting haemolysin, and making biofilms, which make it more dangerous to humans and marine animals. Several resistance genes and efflux systems contribute to its antibiotic resistance, thereby impeding the effectiveness of treatment. Studies also show that biofilm formation and quorum sensing facilitate survival in hostile environments, making infections more challenging to manage.
Conclusions: Understanding the virulence factors and antibiotic resistance mechanisms of Vibrio alginolyticus is crucial for developing effective control strategies. This bacterium’s rapid spread and severe impact on marine life and human health necessitate new approaches in aquaculture management and clinical interventions. Enhanced monitoring and targeted research are essential to curb its spread and prevent infection, ultimately improving aquaculture productivity and reducing public health risks associated with this pathogen.

Published: November 2024

In industrial manufacturing systems, predictive maintenance is the process of increasing the rate of productivity and minimizing the time that equipment takes to be out of order through early identification of the equipment that is likely to fail. The main focus of this research is to analyze the possibility of using modern approaches in machine learning to enhance the methods of predictive maintenance. We compare multiple current approaches of deep learning, ensemble methods, and anomaly detection to determine their effectiveness in predicting the maintenance requirements utilizing the sensor and operational data. With the help of a large amount of data, we consider the results of the work of each algorithm for the assessment of the predictive accuracy, the ranking of features, and the detection of anomalies. The findings highlight disparities in the effectiveness of the algorithms in terms of accuracy, precision, and recall, and the deep learning models’ ability to grasp intricate and anomalous patterns. The performance of the maintenance predictions is depicted by the use of visualizations of the performance metrics and feature importance. It also describes the drawbacks of the existing models, such as the problem of data quality and generalization. The study draws attention to the possibility of applying sophisticated machine-learning methods to improve the effectiveness of PM in industrial environments. Possible directions of future research are to enhance the generalization ability of the developed models and to expand the usage of modern trends in the machine learning field to enhance maintenance strategies.

Suppurative Meningitis in the Infectious Diseases Clinic - Etiology, Clinic, Laboratory, Course and Outcome
Authors: Hoxha Rron
Published: November 2024

Suppurative meningitis is a bacterial infection of the meninges, which are the protective membranes for the brain and spinal cord, resulting in inflammation[1]. Bacterial meningitis is most commonly caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae and Neisseria meningitidis and continues to pose a major public health threat. The morbidity and mortality of meningitis depend on the uncontrolled inflammatory response of the infected person or host [2]. The purpose of this paper is to present the epidemiological, clinical and laboratory features of cases with bacterial meningitis treated at the Infectious Diseases Clinic within the studied period January 2021 – December 2022. To present the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the number of cases treated at the Infectious Diseases Clinic in Prishtina, Kosovo. The total number of patients with bacterial meningitis who received treatment at the Infectious Diseases Clinic during the period from January 2021 to December 2022 was 66. The number of cases was much higher in 2022 compared to 2021.

Post-COVID-19 pandemic, individuals are experiencing various forms of stress. This study assessed the prevalence of stress among Indian adults, examined its physical and psychological impacts, and investigated stress management strategies, aiming to fill existing gaps in research. This retrospective observational study utilized an online survey from March 16, 2023, to July 30, 2023, using snowball sampling to target the Indian population. Respondents aged ≥18 years participated in the study. The survey collected data on demographic information, self-reported stress levels, and Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) scores. The chi-square test was applied for statistical analysis, and results with a p-value under 0.05 were considered significant. Among 1,479 respondents (638 males, 841 females; mean age: 23.7±7.7 years), 76.0% of respondents resided in Karnataka. Out of 1,479 respondents, 9.6% experienced mild stress, 84.9% experienced moderate stress, and 5.5% experienced severe stress according to the PSS. Females experienced significantly higher stress levels when compared with males (p=0.047), but both experienced moderate stress levels. Financial problems (20.7%) and studies (36.4%) were the most common stressors among respondents. They most frequently manage stress through personal strategies, such as sleeping and listening to music. The present study's findings indicate that, following the COVID-19 health crisis, moderate levels of stress are significantly prevalent in the Indian population, primarily due to academic and job-related pressures.
Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Neonatal Resuscitation Protocols in Reducing Infant Mortality
Authors: Parejo Dilanys Maria Ferrer
Published: November 2024

A systematic review was carried out on the scientific production related to neonatal resuscitation protocols and their impact on infant mortality, using the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses) methodology. The main purpose of this analysis was to identify and characterize the relevant publications registered in the Scopus and WoS databases, evaluating their scope and contribution to the study of these critical variables in neonatal health. During the review process, 28 publications were initially identified that addressed the topic, which were refined through the use of specific keywords, such as Neonatal Resuscitation Protocols and Infant Mortality. After excluding duplicates and documents that did not meet the inclusion criteria, a total of 17 studies were selected for detailed analysis. The identification and evaluation of these publications made it possible to observe global trends in research on the effectiveness of neonatal resuscitation protocols. A key finding was that, although standardized protocols have proven to be fundamental tools for reducing infant mortality, their effectiveness is conditioned by contextual factors such as the training of health personnel, the availability of technological resources, and inequalities in access to neonatal health services. This analysis confirmed that, in low- and middle-income countries, structural barriers limit the effective implementation of these protocols, highlighting the need to adapt them to local realities. In addition, one of the most relevant aspects identified in the review was the increasing incorporation of technological advances in resuscitation protocols, such as the use of monitoring devices and innovative tools that optimize interventions in critically ill neonates. However, these technological developments are mostly concentrated in developed country contexts, posing a global challenge to ensure that these innovations are accessible and applicable in resource-limited regions. This approach underscores the importance of advancing equity in neonatal care through public health policies that promote universal access to essential technologies. In summary, this systematic analysis not only made it possible to identify the main characteristics of recent research, but also evidenced the need to strengthen the strategies for the implementation of neonatal resuscitation protocols to maximize their impact on the reduction of infant mortality. This work provides a solid foundation for future research and highlights priority areas for improvement, including training of medical personnel, optimization of resource use, and technological innovation adapted to diverse socio-economic contexts.
The Impact of Foreign Control on The Economic Factor in Southern Arabia Before Islam

Yemen's geographical location, which connects East to West, helped the recovery of its economy. Agriculture was one of the most important factors that characterized the economy of southern Arabia before Islam, as a result of its fertile soil and the availability of water in it, including rainwater, dams and valleys. The agricultural crops varied with Tayeb and incense were the top of Yemeni goods, so they called it the “land of Tayoub”. Yemen was also called “Green Yemen” because of its abundance of goods. The commercial factor also played an important role in raising the Yemeni economy as it served as a link between the countries of the old world. Various trade routes branched out, including land roads, as the incense road is one of the most famous roads that gained wide fame before Islam, as well as sea routes for the transport of commercial caravans. The industrial sector was equally important, with Yemeni workers excelling in diverse industries, the availability of raw materials in the country led to flourishing industries. All these factors contributed to the development of the economy, making it vulnerable to foreign ambitions. Several foreign powers, including the Romans, sought to acquire its wealth. Later, other external powers such as the Al-Ahbash, supported by the Byzantine Empire, and the Sassanid Empire extended their influence over Yemen's riches, ultimately affecting and leading to the demise of the Yemeni civilization. Economic factors were the main drivers of foreign control over southern Arabia.
