Published: October 2022

Orbital meningioma is a rare benign tumor, it develops from the dura mater and can invade the opposite bone and invade the orbital contents through the superior orbital fissure or optic canal, or more frequently after bone invasion. It frequently occurs in the spheno-orbital region, rarely in the frontal location, as in our case. This is a 58-year-old woman with no pathological antecedents. She consulted with our ophthalmology service with progressively installing low visual acuity with binocular diplopia. Examination of the right eye reveals exophthalmos axial, painless, non-reducible and non-pulsatile, as well as limitation of ocular motility in lateral gaze. Fundus examination showed grade 1 papilledema. Orbitocerebral scanner was favorable for frontal meningioma with grade 1 exophthalmos. Pariente was referred to neurosurgery for possible surgical excision.

Epiduritis is an inflammation of the epidural tissue, located around the spinal cord, between the dura mater and the spinal canal. Spinal epidural abscess is the complication of epidural inflammation and a potentially devastating entity responsible for paraplegia whose incidence is increasing with about 10% mortality. We report a case of epidural abscess diagnosed in the radiology department of the ‘Marie Curie’ medical clinic in Bamako-Mali with the aim of describing the contribution of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). This was a 44-year-old female subject referred for back pain and sudden onset paraplegia. An MRI exploration made it possible to diagnose epiduritis complicated by epidural abscess. A medullary decompression was made with the anatomopathological study which confirmed the diagnosis by finding a pyogenic germ. MRI is the state-of-the-art imaging in the management of spinal canal infection and its contents.

Authors: Archana Allikayala , Vijetha K. Anie
Published: October 2022

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like Ketorolac Tromethamine are frequently prescribed to alleviate pain associated with osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, acute sciatica, rheumatoid arthritis, and low back pain. Hydrogels are polymeric three-dimensional networks that are able to consume significant volumes of water and remain insoluble in water due to their physical and chemical crosslinking. They respond to temperature, pH and ionic strength. They can be prepared by using natural polymers such as dextran, pectin, alginate, or synthetic polymers such as polyvinyl alcohol, polyethylene oxide, and poly–hydroxy ethyl methacrylate. Hydrogels are used to deliver several drugs. Today, hydrogels have found a wide range of applications due to their non-toxic nature and low cost. The purpose of the current research was to formulate and assess a topical gel based on hydrogel that contained Ketorolac Tromethamine to treat inflammation and pain while reducing the gastrointestinal side effects associated with oral treatment. According to the FTIR analysis, Ketorolac Tromethamine doesn't interact with other excipients in a significant way. The physical characteristics, pH level, extrudability, spreadability, swelling property, in-vitro drug release study of hydrogel formulations were assessed. Using a dialysis membrane and a phosphate buffer solution with a pH of 7.4, in vitro and ex vivo release studies were conducted on the Franz diffusion cell. Among all formulations, HF4 showed high spreadability of 25.2 ±0.3 gm./cm/sec, extrudability, swelling index, in vitro drug release, and ex vivo drug diffusion. HF4 hydrogel showed no signs of skin irritation. The final formulation HF4 hydrogel shows an equal analgesic and anti-inflammatory effect as standard Ketorolac gel. It was found from the drug release kinetics that the Topical Ketorolac hydrogel HF4 drug release mechanism follows the Higuchi model and zero order.
Formulation and Evaluation of Dabigatran Solid Self-Nano Emulsifying Drug Delivery System
Authors: Manasa Sanke , Vijetha K. Anie
Published: October 2022

Dabigatran Etexilate (DE), a prodrug of dabigatran, is a strong oral, reversible, and direct thrombin inhibitor with low oral bioavailability because of active efflux via intestinal P-glycoprotein receptors. By creating a self-emulsifying drug delivery system, the current work largely focused on improving the solubility of dabigatran. Dabigatran is a BCS class II medication with high permeability and poor water solubility. UV-spectroscopy was used to determine Dabigatran's saturated solubility in different oils, surfactants, and co-surfactants. Based on their maximum solubility and compatibility with Dabigatran, the excipients were chosen. Different oils, surfactants, and co-surfactant combinations were used to create SEDDS formulations of dabigatran (4:1 and 3:1). Pseudo ternary phase diagrams were created, and the nano emulsification area was assessed using these. Formulations were created utilising different ratios of oil (Capmul MCM NF), surfactant (Labrasol ALF), and co-surfactant (Transcutol HP) based on the pseudo ternary phase diagram. The produced formulations were chosen, and the 4:1 formulation underwent optimization and was subjected to additional tests, including self-emulsification time, phase separation and stability tests, thermodynamic stability studies, droplet size and zeta potential, and in vitro drug release investigations. According to the report's results, Dabigatran SEDDS are a viable system to increase Dabigatran's solubility.

Authors: Demirhan Esma , Atar Sevgi , Ferhatlar Nur , Kuru Ömer
Published: October 2022

Objective: This study aims to determine whether neuropathic pain (NP) presence affects sleep quality in patients with axial spondyloarthritis (AxSpA).
Materials and Methods: Demographic data of the patients were documented. The patient's NP was evaluated with painDETECT questionnaire. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life (AsQoL), Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score (ASDAS-CRP), and visual analog scale (VAS) were used to evaluate sleep quality, quality of life (QoL), pain severity and disease activity, respectively.
Results: Among the 108 patients who participated in the researh, 51 were female and 57 were male. NP was found in 41.7% of them. 65.7% Of all patients had a sleep disorder. AxSpA patients with NP had a statistically significant higher VAS-activity, VAS-night, and VAS-rest scores (p<0.001, p<0.001, p=0.002, respectively). They also had higher ASQoL scores and higher disease activity. (p=0.008, p=0.012, respectively).
Although impaired sleep was detected in 71.1% of AxSpA patients with NP, it was present in 61.9% of AxSpA patients without NP, and we didn’t find a statistically significant difference (p=0.32). Total painDETECT scores were correlated with PSQI ASQoL, and VAS scores (p< 0.001). But there was no correlation with ASDAS-CRP scores (p=0.57).
Conclusion: A large majority of AxSpA patients have a sleep problem, independent of the presence of NP. Not only targeting the inflammatory pain but also targeting NP and sleep disorder together in the follow-up of patients with AxSpA will improve QoL.

Published: October 2022

Diante do surgimento da pandemia COVID-19, além da saúde, vários setores da sociedade foram afetados, como o cultural, econômico e educacional. As atividades que eram presenciais passaram a ser remotas. Neste trabalho, apresentaremos um estudo de caso do Canal Rede de Ciência, Arte e Cidadania do YouTube elucidando o impacto das nossas ações em rede durante o período de isolamento social necessário para o enfrentamento da pandemia de COVID-19. O Canal foi criado em 2017, mas foi durante a pandemia que obtivemos maior visibilidade, ganhando mais força e demandas. Para as análises, utilizamos a ferramenta de métricas YouTube Studio > Analytics e realizamos o monitoramento do desempenho do canal. Além da coleta de dados, caracterizamos nosso trabalho como pesquisa aplicada. Desenvolvemos transmissões ao vivo da rede durante a pandemia, que foram divididas em 3 momentos: Bate-Papo em Rede, Transmissão do II Encontro de Ficção Científica e Ensino de Ciências e eventos da Laser-Talks Rio. Para cada evento, nós elaboramos uma lista de reprodução específica para facilitar a propagação e acesso aos vídeos. O público alcançado foi majoritariamente feminino (66,4%). A faixa etária de maior alcance dos participantes que assistiram às transmissões ao vivo foi entre 25 a 34 anos. Observamos também que usuários de diferentes estados do Brasil participaram e assistiram às transmissões ao vivo. Além do público do estado sede do canal (Rio de Janeiro), foi notável a presença dos estados do Acre, Ceará, Bahia, São Paulo, Minas Gerais e Paraná, um público até então não atingido durante os eventos presenciais de ciência e arte do nosso grupo. Além disso, em 2020, realizamos 10 transmissões ao vivo com diferentes abordagens de ciência e arte, que resultaram em 89,4 mil impressões, 12,6 mil visualizações e 943 novos inscritos. Em conjunto, esses resultados fortalecem o papel do canal Rede de Ciência, Arte e Cidadania como um importante meio de encontro de atores da rede, divulgando conteúdos de ciência e arte através das transmissões ao vivo. Todas as atividades catalisaram uma conexão e oportunidade importantes para que nossos parceiros realizassem seus eventos de forma remota e que o público interessado tivesse acesso em tempo real em todo o Brasil durante a pandemia de COVID-19.
Soviets et salaires : les sardinières dans la grève de Douarnenez (novembre 1924-janvier 1925)
Authors: Bernard Théo
Published: October 2022

À la fin novembre 1924, une grève éclate parmi les ouvrières des conserveries de Douarnenez dans le Finistère. Mobilisant 2 200 salariés, la grève dure sept semaines et remet en cause, pour une période brève, la puissance et l’autorité des patrons, de l’État, voire des militants communistes à la tête de la mairie de Douarnenez et en position d’intermédiaires syndicaux dans la grève. Durant le conflit, les revendications, la place des femmes, la souveraineté des assemblées plénières de grévistes, les prérogatives du comité de grève contrôlant l’activité productive du port, la forme des manifestations, les blocages de routes expriment la profondeur de la révolte. L’effectivité de la participation ouvrière dans la direction du mouvement contribue à définir la nature du conflit, dont les dimensions politiques se conjuguent avec une organisation consciente de la grève.
La producción de aceite de pingüino en Patagonia y Malvinas (1850-1880)
Authors: Haller Sofia Clara , García Susana V.
Published: October 2022

Los pingüinos fueron uno de los tantos animales
marinos que se transformaron en un objeto comercial ligado al gran
mercado y consumo de aceites y pieles del siglo XIX. En este trabajo
se examina la producción de aceite obtenido de estas aves en el
litoral patagónico y malvinense entre las décadas de 1850 y 1880,
período de auge de este producto y de su explotación en la región. A
partir del análisis de diferentes fuentes históricas se identifican
algunos actores, emprendimientos, operaciones técnicas y conexiones
navieras involucrados en esta actividad cinegética en tres áreas de la
región: las islas Tova y Leones en el litoral patagónico; la isla de
los Estados y el archipiélago de Malvinas. El caso de esta industria
permite ahondar en el funcionamiento de las mecánicas extractivistas
en el litoral del Atlántico sudoccidental y muestra cómo el comercio
de productos animales generó ocupaciones territoriales, conexiones
comerciales y rutas de navegación que integraron remotas islas y
desoladas bahías en los circuitos del comercio global.
What is left: coastal extractivism, the Colditan viviente and local notions of space and time (Coldita Island, Quellón, Chiloé)
Authors: Saavedra Gómez José Joaquín
Published: October 2022

This article describes the relationship between the Tweo Coldita Williche community (Coldita Island; Quellón commune; Archipelago of Chiloé) with coastal extractive activities, including those of the nearby city of Quellón. This relationship will be addressed through multiple elements: an ethnographical account of a witchcraft situation; the traces of extractive activities left in Coldita by different companies; and an overall history of the Colditan viviente in their engagement with modernizing processes. With this, I propose an approach to the concept of “tradition and modernity”, deployed in many scholarly interpretations of how neoliberalism has affected the archipelago. My suggestion is that local concepts of space and time could elicit other ways of approaching these topics, especially through the notions of “emplacement” and “invention”.
Desde el mar a la pieza de un reloj o en la mesa como salchicha. La maquinaria detrás de la producción de aceite y carne en la industria ballenera de Paita (Perú)
Authors: Carreño Gastón
Published: October 2022

En el siguiente artículo, se presentan los
resultados de una investigación sobre la actividad ballenera
desarrollada en Paita durante la segunda mitad del siglo XX, periodo
en el que funcionaron varias empresas en un mismo lugar: Compañía
Ballenera del Norte (1957-1966), Ballenera del Kinkai (1967-1977) y
Ballenera Victoria del Mar (1977-1985). En particular, nos
centraremos en las maquinarias utilizadas en la planta, describiendo
sus líneas de producción, en un primer momento, enfocadas a la
elaboración de aceite. Sin embargo, a fines de los años 60’, entran
capitales japoneses a esta industria ballenera, reorientando la
cacería de ballenas hacia la obtención de carne, sobre todo para el
consumo en el mercado nipón. En este nuevo contexto dominado por
japoneses, hay una interesante experiencia de fabricación de
salchichas con carne de ballena, destinada principalmente para el
público peruano.Para desarrollar este trabajo, fueron
entrevistados trabajadores de la planta ballenera de Paita, se
desarrolló un trabajo de documentación y revisión bibliográfica en la
Biblioteca Nacional del Perú (Lima). También se estudiaron documentos
y bibliografía recopilada en más de 10 años de investigación sobre la
cacería de ballenas en Chile y Sudamérica.

Impact international de la prise de l’ambassade de la République Dominicaine à Bogota en 1980 : acteurs, intérêts, dialogue et négociation
Authors: Diaz Fabián Plazas
Published: October 2022

En Colombie, l’adoption du Statut de sécurité nationale sous le gouvernement de Julio Cesar Turbay Ayala (1978-1982) accroit les tensions et la violence entre les groupes insurgés et l’État. Du 27 février au 25 avril 1980, un commando armé du mouvement de guérilla urbaine M-19 prend l’ambassade de la République dominicaine à Bogotá, opération conclue au bout de 61 jours par la libération des ambassadeurs détenus. Celle-ci est convenue au terme de négociations notamment facilitées par l’accompagnement de divers acteurs internationaux. Fondée sur l’exploitation des sources primaires provenant des archives du Département Administratif de la Présidence, l’analyse ici proposée porte sur l'impact international de la prise de l'ambassade dominicaine à Bogotá par le M-19, en tenant compte de trois éléments. D’abord, les motivations de cette guérilla pour lancer l’assaut contre l'ambassade ; ensuite, la participation des gouvernements et institutions internationaux impliqués dans les négociations et la libération des diplomates retenus ; enfin, les conséquences de l’opération et de son issue. L’étude de cet épisode historique permet d'identifier et de caractériser certains types d’acteurs latino-américains impliqués dans le développement de la violence politique et la recherche de la paix dans la région. L’article contribue également à l’écriture de l'histoire des relations internationales de la Colombie et des pays d’Amérique latine en ce qui concerne la gestion des conflits armés, les négociations de paix et la diplomatie pour la paix.
Un double exil : histoires d’indésirables italiens en Argentine au cours des années 1930
Authors: Del Giudice Federico
Published: October 2022

Tout au long des années 1930, l’Argentine est traversée par une vaste mobilisation syndicale, touchant en particulier le secteur du bâtiment et des travaux publics. Le mouvement ouvrier est alors dirigé par une leadership mixte, composée à la fois d’Argentins, souvent fils d’immigrés, et d’un grand nombre d’étrangers issus des plus récentes vagues migratoires. Ces grèves ont lieu dans une décennie bouleversée de l’histoire argentine, ouverte par le coup d’État du 6 septembre 1930 qui entraine l’arrivée au pouvoir du général José Félix Uriburu, expression de la droite conservatrice et nationaliste. Uriburu et son successeur, le général Agustín Pedro Justo, s’engagent dans une répression acharnée du mouvement syndical et communiste. Les militants étrangers deviennent ainsi la cible d’arrestations et d’expulsions. Parmi eux, cinq militants syndicaux italiens sont renvoyés vers leur pays d’origine en octobre 1937, où ils sont immédiatement enfermés par le régime fasciste. À partir de l’histoire de ces syndicalistes italiens, cet article vise à comprendre la menace qu’ils représentaient pour les contextes des pays d’accueil et de départ. Ces acteurs transnationaux participaient en effet à la circulation d’idées et de modèles organisationnels perçus comme une menace par les autorités en Argentine et en Italie, qui en viennent ainsi à collaborer pour contrer l’action militante.

Published: October 2022

El presente documento parte de las conclusiones de una investigación que buscó identificar los orígenes y las condiciones de producción de marcas gráficas en Colombia durante las tres primeras décadas del siglo XX. Tras la consolidación y análisis del corpus de imágenes se logró identificar varias tendencias que se establecieron y desarrollaron durante el periodo estudiado, siendo el mestizaje gráfico la que más relación tiene con la circulación de personas, prácticas, ideas y bienes. Para deconstruir este fenómeno lo abordamos en tres partes: la motivación del uso de códigos europeos, la manera como estos códigos fueron introducidos en el lenguaje visual del país, y las etapas que condujeron al mestizaje gráfico.

Published: October 2022

Mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (MTEER) is the first transcatheter technique for mitral valve repair (MVR) in patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) who are considered at high risk for surgical intervention. Mitral valve prolapse with subsequent MR is a common manifestation of Marfan syndrome. MTEER has never been reported as a treatment option in such kind of patients. We describe the case of a 30-year-old patient who was known to have Marfan syndrome which was complicated with severe symptomatic MR. The surgical risk was high, and he preferred transcatheter intervention. MTEER was complicated with an immediate single-leaflet detachment of the first deployed MitraClip XTR. Bail-out edge-to-edge MVR with two additional MitraClip XTR was performed successfully to stabilize the detached clip. The patient's symptoms and quality of life improved significantly after 10 months of follow-up.

Published: October 2022

Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an uncommon cause of acute myocardial ischemia. SCAD complicated by coronary artery aneurysm (CAA) is rare and seldom reported. Coronary angiography is the gold standard for the diagnosis of SCAD. However, an obscure intimal flap may not be recognized with a conventional coronary angiogram, and intravascular imaging modalities are important in the diagnosis of SCAD. Optical coherence tomography contributes to providing information about the size, shape, and location of CAAs. Herein, we are presenting a challenging and unique case of a woman presenting with SCAD complicated by a CAA.

Coronary artery bypass grafting is the standard of care for patients with obstructive left main (LM) coronary disease. In poor surgical candidates, high-risk percutaneous coronary artery intervention (PCI) is an alternative.

Methods:

We investigated a retrospective cohort of patients who underwent LM PCI from January 2010 to March 2014 (n = 89). Obstructive LM disease was defined as 50% angiographic obstruction of luminal flow, and the primary endpoint was inhospital mortality. Ventricular assist device (VAD) was defined as the use of either intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) or Impella 2.5 devices before, during, or following PCI.

Results:

A total of 89 patients with LM PCI were divided into those with (n = 39) and without (n = 50) VAD support. The former group was further divided into those with support from either Impella 2.5 (n = 28) or IABP (n = 11). Age, race, and gender did not differ between patients who received unassisted LM-PCI from those with VAD support (P = 0.142, 1.0, and 0.776, respectively). The angiographic stenosis of atherosclerotic lesions in LM, proximal left anterior descending artery, and other native/surgical coronary vessels was similar between the groups. The duration of hospitalization was significantly longer for patients with VAD support compared to those without (7.19 ± 6.89 vs. 2.78 ± 3.39, P < 0.001). The incidence of cardiogenic shock and inhospital mortality was significantly higher in the VAD group (P = 0.009 and 0.001, respectively). Overall, inhospital mortality was 9% (8/89). The IABP and Impella 2.5 groups had mortality proportions of 46% (5/11) and 11% (3/28), respectively; P = 0.028. For all patients, inhospital mortality was higher for those with versus without cardiogenic shock (56% or 5/9 vs. 4% or 3/80; P < 0.001), and for those with versus without left ventricular systolic function <40% (17% vs. 2%;P < 0.025).

Conclusion:

In a selected group of patients with LM disease, unsupported PCI appears to be a feasible and safe procedure. In high-risk patients, the use of Impella 2.5 appears to be superior to IABP in LM PCI resulting in favorable short-term outcomes.
Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment for Older People with diabetes mellitus – Considerations for geriatricians and diabetes nurse educators
Authors: Teo Shyh Poh
Published: October 2022

Older people are complex and have a higher absolute risk of diabetes-related complications and thus should be a target group for diabetes and geriatric nursing intervention. Patients with diabetes also have poor knowledge and understanding of the condition and self-management skills. Management of older people with diabetes should be individualized. Comprehensive geriatric assessment takes into account medical, psychosocial, and functional considerations. Many of the presenting complaints of older people are multifactorial. The reliability and objectivity of the history should also be considered. Other aspects of management include dentition, nutritional status, swallowing, medications, physical activity, fall prevention, palliative care, and support services as well as pressure injuries in dependent older people. Finally, with the current COVID-19 pandemic, the approach for service delivery may also need adjustments to take into account infection prevention and control measures, such as the use of virtual consultations.

Published: October 2022

Introduction:

Fragility hip fractures in nonagenarian patients pose a great challenge in management. To the best of our knowledge, no study has previously evaluated the outcomes and risk factors for mortality after hip fractures in this subgroup of population from the Indian subcontinent.

Materials and Methods:

A retrospective observational study was performed on nonagenarian patients (aged ≥90) who underwent surgery for hip fractures between March 2016 and March 2019. The patients were divided into two groups: “survivor group” (Group A) and “mortality group” (Group B). The demographic data, type of fracture, side of fractured limb, preinjury ambulatory status, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) status, comorbidities, time interval from injury to surgery, operative time, length of hospital stay, and postoperative ambulatory status were recorded from hospital medical records and were studied between the two groups. The follow-up duration of the study was 1 year.

Results:

Thirty-four patients were included in the study. Both the groups had 17 patients each. Cardiac dysfunction was the most common cause of mortality. The time interval from injury to surgery (odds ratio [OR] = 11.2), gender (OR = 0.23) and postoperative mobility status (OR = 0.07) were found to be significantly different between the two groups. No significant difference in ASA grade, comorbidities, fracture type, preinjury ambulatory status, operative time, and length of hospital stay was seen between the two groups.

Conclusions:

Risk factors for mortality after hip fracture surgery in the nonagenarian population are male gender, delay in surgery (>3 days) and poor ambulatory status in the postoperative period. Hence, the aim for such patients with hip fractures should be to perform an early surgery and encourage an early ambulation.
A Systematic Review of Sexual and Reproductive Health Needs, Experiences, Access to Services, and Interventions among the Rohingya and the Afghan Refugee Women of Reproductive Age in Asia
Authors: Hossain Muhammad Anwar , Dawson Angela
Published: October 2022

Introduction:

Approximately 9.2 million refugees live in Asia, with most originating from Afghanistan and Myanmar, and half of them are women, girls, and children. Humanitarian crises disrupt the existing health-care system, limiting access to sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services. This review explores the SRH status of Afghan and Rohingya refugee women of reproductive age in Asia and their needs and experiences in accessing these services and commodities.

Materials and Methods:

We used the PRISMA checklist and searched for qualitative and quantitative peer-reviewed studies from five online bibliographic databases, SCOPUS, EMBASE (Ovid), MEDLINE (Ovid), CINAHL, and PROQUEST, from January 2000 to April 2021. Content analysis was undertaken following the minimum initial service package objectives.

Results:

Fifteen studies were included in this review from four countries: Bangladesh (5), Pakistan (5), Iran (4), and Malaysia (1). Approximately 50.91% of Rohingya and 54% of Afghan refugee women used contraceptives. About 56.6% of Afghan refugee mothers experienced pregnancy-related complications, one-third received antenatal care, and low birth weight was 2.6 times higher among infants born to Afghan refugee mothers than to Pakistani-born mothers. One out of five Rohingya women received delivery-related care. Approximately 72% of Rohingya and 79.8% of Afghan refugee women had experienced gender-based violence, and 56.5% of Rohingya women engaged in unwanted sexual intercourse with their husbands.

Conclusion:

Social norms, stigma, cultural values, distrust of providers, inadequate staff, and prohibition by family members limit their access to SRH services and influence their needs, knowledge, and perceptions regarding SRH.

Published: October 2022

Background:

Respectful maternity care (RMC) is a basic right of all pregnant women. The study identifies the sociodemographic and economic factors influencing disrespect and abuse (D&A) faced by women during pregnancy, childbirth, and immediate postpartum period in India.

Methodology:

A cross-sectional study was conducted across six health facilities in three states of India from June 2019 to June 2020 among 401 women aged 18 years or more who had a live birth within the past 2 months of data collection. A validated structured interview schedule was used to capture data on sociodemographic and economic characteristics; antenatal, intranatal, and postnatal history; and incidences of D&A based on Bowser's seven domains of RMC. Ordered logistic regression was done to identify the determinant of high D&A.

Results:

The composite score of D&A ranged from 0 to 48 with a median interquartile range of 13 (9–17). All women faced one or the other kind of D&A. Women with the lowest food security (odds ratio [OR] = 3.3; 95% confidence interval: 1.6–6.7), who did not avail any antenatal care from the facility (OR = 1.9 [1.1–3.2]), and in the lowest wealth index (OR = 2.2 [1.3–3.7]) faced more D&A than those with high food security, more than two ANC services from same health facility, and in the high wealth index, respectively. Women who had low mobility score experienced lower D&A (OR = 0.5 [0.3–0.8]) as compared to the women with a high mobility score. Nonconsented care, nonconfidential care, and physical discomfort were the most common types of D&A.

Conclusions:

RMC is directly associated with socioeconomic status of women. Policy and program interventions are needed to address the inequity in health service care provision and expanding the social security net for women.
Projecting the Nature of Education for the Future: Implications for Current Practice
Authors: Sibanda Jabulani , Marongwe Newlin
Published: October 2022

Ensuring that education serves the needs of a rapidly and ever-changing society is one of the defining challenges of education providers. This paper projects future trends in education on the basis of documented evidence which predicts the shifts in education (teacher education in particular) in terms of how it should prepare its products. The study views education for the future as not discarding subject content, but utilising content as a means rather than an end. The shift transforms both instruction and assessment to developing students not just to imbibe content knowledge, but also habits which make them adaptable to the changing world, as well as empowering them to become change-agents. Accordingly, the teaching environment needs to respond to the dynamics of technological developments, and to changing student profiles. What changes is the authoritative position of the teacher as the repository and dispenser of knowledge, and the learner’s passive role as the consumer of knowledge. Knowledge acquisition is now a co-creation within the teaching-learning context. This paper recommends further delineation of the current trends that define 21st century education, and what they determine for the future.

Published: October 2022

The corn tie culture of the Meto tribe is an Indonesian cultural heritage that needs to be preserved and inherited as a form of community responsibility in the midst of an increasingly modern globalization. In addition, the tradition of ikat corn also contains the concepts of high national values for character building. This study aims to identify the cultural values contained in the corn tie tradition to be implemented in learning at school. This research is qualitative research with an ethnographic approach. Data collection is done by reviewing the literature, making observations, conducting interviews, and documenting all activities in the field. The information obtained is then analyzed to describe the results of the exploration of cultural values of tying corn to various customs or traditions, which can be actualized in learning at school. The results of this study indicate that the Meto people already have basic values of life in social life. This can be seen from the results of the exploration that the values contained in the culture of corn tying are religious, nationality, independence, cooperation, and integrity. The culture of this corn tie contains cultural values that can be actualized in learning.
