Published: June 2023

Introduction: Child Protection Services (CPSs) are dedicated to providing protection and responding to any threats a child could face as children worldwide could be abused. Recently, the COVID-19 pandemic affected all aspects of life. Procedures implemented to restrict the spread of the disease (such as reduced access to services, school closure, and social distancing measures) had an impact on child life and maltreatment. Therefore, it is important to know the impact of this pandemic on child abuse and protection. Aim and rationales: This study aimed to assess the impact of COVID-19 on CPSs in Oman by studying the change in the number of reported cases of child abuse and the change in the reporting procedure at the Ministry of Social Development (MOSD). In addition, know the impact of the restriction measures on child rights and risk factors of child maltreatment based on CPSs workers’ opinions and experience. To understand the adaptation of the CPSs to the change in work and life environment imposed by COVID-19. Method: A cross-section study was conducted using a semi-structured questionnaire, that was distributed to the workers involved in the CPSs at the MOSD in Oman. Data also were collected from the statistical bulletins on the Ministry’s website. Results: COVID-19 pandemic was not found associated with a significant change in the number and type of child abuse cases reported to the MOSD. The reporting procedures also did not change. In addition, the pattern of child abuse types did not change before and during the pandemic, as neglect cases were the most. The participants judged the restriction measures affecting family life through separation, cyber abuse, and reduced educational support. With regard to intervention and follow-up procedures, the main difference was in the communication processes by using online communication methods and reducing the fieldwork for mild cases. Conclusion: CPSs in Oman were not much affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, which may reflect the success of this system in dealing with the restriction measures. However, more solutions should be developed to adapt to these circumstances in the future altogether.

Published: June 2023

Introducción. El principal reto en la atención del cáncer durante la pandemia causada por la COVID-19 fue asegurar la oportunidad en el diagnóstico y tratamiento a cerca de 100,000 casos nuevos de cáncer al año en Colombia. El objetivo de esta investigación fue conocer la respuesta de las Instituciones Prestadoras de Servicios de Salud sobre su gestión en los servicios para la atención de la patología oncológica en el primer semestre del año 2020. Metodología. Estudio descriptivo y transversal tipo encuesta sobre la caracterización de los pacientes oncológicos con COVID-19, la capacidad instalada, la atención integral del cáncer, la implementación de telesalud/telemedicina y el apoyo institucional durante la pandemia. Participaron veinticinco prestadores con servicio de cirugía oncológica y quimioterapia o radioterapia. Resultados. El 56% de prestadores reportó pacientes oncológicos con COVID-19. Todos reportaron cambios de gestión en la capacidad resolutiva ante la pandemia: el 76% acondicionó infraestructura y dispositivos, el 84% adoptó la telesalud/telemedicina y el 92% recibió asistencia en planes de acción. El 48% de las instituciones prestadoras evidenciaron una disminución en el tamizaje de cáncer. Discusión. Este estudio evidencia que la emergencia de la pandemia obligó a apresurar los esfuerzos de infraestructura y recursos en las entidades oncológicas de Colombia. Los resultados obtenidos en la disminución de tamización de cáncer a nivel nacional se equiparán con los datos reportados por distintos países, incluyendo la región de las Américas. Conclusión. Los hallazgos evidencian la necesidad de mejorar la capacidad de respuesta del sistema de salud en escenarios de emergencia sanitaria que eviten el retraso en la atención y las acciones en salud pública del cáncer.
Estudio piloto de caracterización microbiológica de los billetes que circulan en la ciudad de Bucaramanga, Colombia
Authors: Castro-Hernandez Yohana
Published: June 2023

Introducción. Los billetes son un potencial medio de transmisión de microorganismos capaces de producir enfermedades. Es el caso del Staphylococcus aureus, una bacteria distribuida por toda América Latina, causante de infecciones y resistente a antibióticos de uso común. El objetivo del estudio es realizar una caracterización bacteriana y fúngica de billetes circulantes en la ciudad de Bucaramanga, y en especial identificar algunos que puedan relacionarse con problemas de salud pública. Metodología. Estudio observacional y cuantitativo, con una muestra de 50 billetes (5 diferentes denominaciones de 2 fechas de emisión). Se identificaron y cuantificaron los microorganismos mediante siembra en caldo peptona, posteriormente en agar Reasoner´s 2A (R2A), nutritivos y selectivos, además del uso de técnicas de índice analítico de perfil (API) y microscopia óptica. Se realizó un análisis estadístico de correlación de variables mediante el software Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). Resultados. Se identificaron 21 géneros y 12 especies de bacterias, así como 3 géneros y 2 especies de hongos filamentosos, entre ellos algunos que pueden ocasionar infecciones como Klesiella, Enterobacter, Listeria, Staphylococcus, Cryptococcus y Aspergillus. Discusión. En relación con estudios internacionales, en este trabajo se identificaron menos tipologías de microorganismos, lo cual se explica en razón a las limitaciones propias de las técnicas utilizadas y del nivel de contaminación local. Conclusión. Se pudo establecer que el grado de contaminación microbiana no depende significativa o consistentemente de la fecha de emisión ni de la denominación; pero la identificación de patógenos sugiere plantear medidas para limitar su transmisión por esta vía.

Published: June 2023

Introducción. La atención de la dimensión espiritual en pacientes y familias es fundamental como parte del papel activo de los profesionales de enfermería en la satisfacción de las necesidades espirituales de los pacientes. Objetivo. Comprender las actitudes frente al cuidado espiritual de los profesionales de enfermería en formación. Metodología. Estudio de abordaje cualitativo, con análisis de contenido, con población de 20 estudiantes de educación superior de Enfermería, con un muestreo por conveniencia. Se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas y dos grupos focales para indagar sobre el autoconocimiento espiritual y las concepciones del cuidado espiritual, tomando como referencia los conceptos teóricos propuestos por McSherry. El análisis de los datos inicialmente se hizo de forma inductiva, con ayuda del software Iramuteq. Resultados. La espiritualidad se considera una dimensión intrapersonal donde se reconoce la necesidad de explorar su propia espiritualidad para acercarse a la percepción espiritual del paciente. Aprender de las crisis para el desarrollo de la espiritualidad personal y encontrarse desde la naturaleza fueron parte de las categorías encontradas. Discusión. La concepción del cuidado espiritual para los estudiantes como dimensión intrapersonal, les permite distinguir entre la espiritualidad y la religiosidad. Este es un aspecto que se ha podido ver durante el desarrollo de las prácticas formativas, ya que se han encontrado personas muy religiosas, así como otras que no lo son. Conclusiones. Se hace referencia a la relación entre lo espiritual y lo corpóreo y aunque existe una diferencia entre religión y espiritualidad, los dos conceptos deben ser valorados a nivel personal.

Introduction. The use of simulation in surgery has made it possible to shorten learning curves through deliberate practice. Although it has been incorporated long ago, there are still no clear recommendations to standardize its development and implementation. This manuscript aims to share recommendations based on our experience of more than twelve years of employing and improving a methodology in laparoscopic surgical simulation. Topics for Reflection. To transfer surgical skills to a trainee, we base our methodology on a three-pillar framework: The hardware and infrastructure (tools to train with), the training program itself (what to do), and the feedback (how to improve). Implementing a cost-effective program is feasible: the hardware does not need to be high fidelity to transfer skills, but the program needs to be validated. These pillars have evolved over time by incorporating technology: the on-site guidance from experts has changed to a remote and asynchronous modality by video recording the trainee’s execution, and by enabling remote and asynchronous feedback. The feedback provider does not necessarily have to be an expert clinician in the subject, but a person previously trained to be a trainer. This allows for deliberate practice until mastery has been reached and learning curves are consolidated. Conclusions. Recommendations based on the experience of our center have been presented, explaining the framework of our strategy. Considering these suggestions, it is hoped that our simulation methodology can aid the development and implementation of effective simulation-based programs for other groups and institutions.

Published: June 2023

This study includes the investigation of oral contraceptives pills effect (Yasmin) on women who used the contraceptive pills by measuring the percentage of DNA damage. Comparison process depends on evaluation of DNA damage percentage on blood lymphocytes in women who used the contraceptive pills for different periods by using comet assay. The presented results obtained from 25 women handling contraceptive pills and 15 women who had not used the pills. The samples were divided into two groups according to the period of contraceptive pills treatment to (2-5) years and (6-8) years. Using image analysis software score comet, three parameters for measuring DNA damage were estimated to indicate it. DNA parameters were tail length, tail DNA % and tail moment. The results showed that the mean of tails lengths of comet in women who used birth control pills (2-5) years were (19.13%) while in women who used birth control pills (6-8) years were (25.08%). The observed values were significantly different (P≤0.05) from those in control, which were (0.8%). On the other hand, the percentage of DNA in the tail and tail moments of comet in women with contraceptive pills treatment (2-5) years were (20.12%) and (23.63%) respectively, while in women with contraceptive pills treatment (6-8) years were (28.63%) and (31.81%) respectively and the observed values were significantly different (P≤0.05) from those in control, which were (1.6%) of DNA in the tail and (0.01%) of tail moments. It is concluded from these results that the prolonged use of contraceptive drugs in our daily life will increase the percentage of DNA damage.
Molecular Localization of Human Papilloma Virus genotypes (16, 18, and 6/11) in Patients with Colorectal Cancer by DNA- Insitu Hybridization
Authors: Jasim Balqees Sadoon
Published: June 2023

Human papilloma viruses (HPV) have been detected in several types of cancers. Over the last few years, a possible correlation between HPV infection and colorectal cancer has been suggested. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between human papilloma virus (HPV) infection and colorectal cancer. To determine the relationship between HPV and colorectal adenocarcinoma, a retrospective study was done. This study was carried out on 50 patients with hisopathologically confirmed primary colorectal cancer. Two samples were collected from each patient: one sample from the tumor site and the other one from adjacent normally appearing colorectal tissues, as well as ten (20) colorectal tissues from control individuals with no cancer. In situ hybridization (ISH) was used to detect HPV DNA (HPV 16 and 18 DNA ISH and 6/11 DNA CISH) in colorectal tissues. HPV 16 was detected in 16(32%) of tumor samples, and in 7 (14%) of adjacent normal tissues, and in additionally two cases of apparently healthy group gave positive results for it. HPV 18 was detected in 11 (22%) of tumor samples and in 6 (12%) of adjacent normal tissue. HPV 6/11 was detected in 24 (48%) of tumor samples and in 7 (14%) of adjacent normal tissue.Our results suggest that colorectal HPV infection is common in patients with adenocarcinoma colorectal, albeit at a low DNA copy number, with HPV16 being the most prevalent type. HPV infection may play a role in colorectal carcinogenesis
Confirming intrinsic pathway apoptosis event in cervical carcinoma cells (HeLa) treated with hybrid nanoliposomes
Authors: Awad Noor A.
Published: June 2023

Cancer targeted nanotherapy represent an exciting field in the search for new cancer specific therapies to avoid conventional chemotherapy side effects. Because cancer cells usually have malfunctioning apoptotic machinery which favors survival pathways and drug resistance. Cancer cell apoptosis is the favorable event to be induced in any new anticancer agent development. Nanotherapy goals are to elevate therapeutic efficiency, selectivity, and overcome drug resistance as major obstacle in cancer treatment. Hybrid nanoliposomes (nHLs) may fulfill all these features in cancer therapeutics. We have previously demonstrated the ability of in house synthesized nHLs to inhibit HeLa cell line proliferation and study preliminary the induction of apoptosis as a consequences of that inhibition. In order to confirm the event of apoptosis in HeLa cell line incubated with the synthesized nHLs we exposed HeLa cells to inhibition concentration 50 (IC50) of previously synthesized hybrid nanoliposomes. Mechanism of apoptosis induction was determined using mitochondrial membrane potential disruption, caspase-3 activity and single cell gel electrophoresis as well as DNA fragmentation assay. All apoptosis detection procedures used gave a clear defined significant indication that nHLs was capable of induce apoptosis in HeLa cells through intrinsic pathway. This result needs further investigation to confirm nHLs as potential nanotherapy.

Authors: Abdul-Lateef Yasir M.
Published: June 2023

Background: In Iraq bladder carcinoma is a major problem according to the results of the Iraqi cancer registry between the years (1991-2006). Cancer of the urinary bladder was the 2nd on the table of the commonest ten cancers in male and it was the 8th commonest cancer in females (1). According to the same registry the main histological types were: Transitional cell carcinoma: 43.82%. Sequamous cell carcinoma: 4.49%. Undifferentiated cell carcinoma: 0.31 %. Adenocarcinoma: 0.92%. Male to female ratio was 3.39:1 the peak age incidence was found in the 70+ years (1). Bilharzial ovals were found in about 7%-29% of bladder cancers, which is lower than that in Egypt; 82-90% (2). On the other hand urinary tract infections are among the most common bacterial infections that lead patients to seek medical care. It had been estimated that more than 6 million outpatient visits and 300,000 hospital stays every year are due to urinary tract infections (3). The aim of this study is to find the association or disassociation between bacterial infection of the urothelium and urothelial carcinoma and if it was associated which type is it: causative or associative. Material and Method: This study was carried out on 105 patients with carcinoma of the bladder (transitional, sequamous), whom were referred to the surgical specialties hospital, medical city for diagnostic transurethral endoscopy during the period between 5th of October 2007 till the 1st of September 2008. History of smoking, previous recurrent urinary tract infection and stone was taken, identification of the causative bacteria for their urinary tract infection was done from three samples collected; two urine samples (on admission and post-operatively) and one tissue sample (tumor biopsy). Results: The results showed that: 85.65% of the patients had infections associated with their tumors, the rest 14.35% were negative. These infections were either Escherichia coli, Klebsiella, Proteus, Staphylococcus, Enterobacter, Citrobacter or Morganella spp. Escherichia coli was the most common 73.3% of all the cases. The results also showed that there was a significant association between positive urine culture on diagnosis for bacterial growth and urothelial carcinoma, also Escherichia coli was collected from the intracellular compartment by a mechanical approach. Conclusion: Associations between urothelial carcinomas and bacterial growths were studied and showed that urothelial carcinomas were highly associated with bacterial growth especially Escherichia coli. Although Klebsiella, Proteus, Staphylococcus, Enterobacter, Citrobacter or Morganella spp., occured in a lower incidence, still had a role in urinary tract infection. Finding Escherichia coli intracellular and its high association with urothelial carcinoma could put these bacteria in the causative section of urothelial carcinoma through producing a recurrent acute infection.

Authors: Hassan Muthanna H.
Published: June 2023

Through the period April - December 2012, urine specimens were collected from186 patiants attending five hospitals. Seventy six isolates of uropathogenic E. coli were obtained from these samples. These isolates were identified as E. coli according to the cultural and morphological characteristics on MacConkey agar, eosin methylene blue agar, biochemical test (vitek 2 system), and API 20 E system. The results showed that only four E. coli isolates (E4, E8, E23, E36) produced cytotoxic necrosis factor 1(CNF1), and E23 was the more efficient isolate in CNF1 production and have high activity on tissue culture. CNF1 produced from this isolate was purified by two steps; the first was by ion exchange chromatography using DEAESephadex, and the second step was gel filtration by Sephacryl S-100. Also study Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) for cnf1 gene and used primer cnf1. The size of amplified gene was 543pb. The cytotoxic effect of different concentrations of CNF1 on cancer lines (RD, AMN3, , Hela, PC3 and HePG2) at 72 hr were examined .The effect was manifested multinucleated and enlargement in cell line. The low IC50 was 104µg/ml against HePG2cancer cells after 72 hr. Also study multiparameter cytotoxic assay. The results revealed low concentration of cytochrome c, total nuclear intensity, cell membrane permeability in comparative positive control. The mitochondria concentration was high compared to the positive control on of cell lines in the concentration (100,25, 12.5,6.25).

The anchorage system is one of the techniques used to connect a new structure to the existing structure. The purpose of this study was to determine the behavior between the anchorage connection model in the existing column structure and the new beam using an adhesive anchoring system, and the monolithic column-beam structure model using a program based on the finite element method, Abaqus CAE. The analysis was executed on two models, the monolithic construction model and the anchor joint connection structure model. The same load was applied for both models at the ends of the beams. In the monolithic construction model, the interaction relationship between the column and beam is using a tie constraint, while the structure of the anchor joint connection was using surface-to-surface contact. The epoxy model in anchor joint structure were using a cohesive behavior-contact relationship. As the results of the analysis, it can be concluded that the monolithic construction has stiffer joints compared to the structures with anchor joint connections, it can be seen from the displacement value of monolithic construction is 4.263 mm meanwhile structure with anchor connection is 5.38 mm. The crack pattern in the monolithic construction is in the column face on the area around the beam connection, while in the anchor connection, the crack pattern forms a cone in the area around the column anchor.

One of the natural phenomena that threaten the existence of human life in several regions in Indonesia every time the rainy season begins is flooding, one of which occurs in the Joyoakan sub-district in Surakarta City. Topographically, it is in a hollow area (under the main road), making it easier for water to enter the area. This is what makes the Premulung and Kaliwingko rivers unable to accommodate rainwater discharge and additional rainwater shipments from the Boyolali and Sukoharjo areas. The purpose of this study is to determine how much volume of inundation in the drainage canal can be reduced in the Joyoakan area and the appropriate efforts to deal with the inundation that occurs. The method used is descriptive research, to provide an overview of the variables studied and modeling using the HEC-RAS software. The result of the calculation is that the potential for inundation that can be reduced by the drainage channel is at the Q5 return period of 6,842.577 m3, the Q10 return period is 6,962.517 m3, and at the Q25 return period is 7,100.448 m3, while the results from the channel dimension modeling analysis, there are still puddles at several points, the right alternative in overcoming inundation is the need to revitalize the drainage channels by increasing the capacity of the drainage dimensions from the current size and improving the base slope of each channel and installing pumps as a means of control in accelerating water discharge

An evaluation of ‘Destination Management Organisation’ (DMO) websites focused on creating attractive, user-friendly, and informative web pages that effectively promote tourism destinations to potential customers. The virtual tour as an innovative tool and form of tourism experience has potential to act as a powerful destination promotion tool. Therefore, for DMOs it may be especially beneficial in terms of destination marketing to offer attractive and suitable virtual tour experiences via destination websites. The study deals specifically with the issue of implementing virtual tours on the DMOs´ websites. The aims of the presented research were defined as: 1. Exploring the Slovak DMO websites by focusing on virtual tour experiences; 2. Measuring the potential customers´ opinions on accessing virtual tours on DMO websites. Quantitative methodological approach, website analysis and a special survey for potential customers were conducted in the presented research to achieve the main goals. Different types of virtual tours have been identified on DMO websites and potential customers´ opinions indicate the need to include virtual tours on DMO websites. Among the identified recommendations for the future highlighted are the improvement of DMO websites generally and expansion of the offer of virtual tours on DMO websites. Comprehensive research in this area within the Slovak DMO context is also desirable.

Water is a vital resource for humans, but there is a lack of understanding about its value. The tourism industry will need more water because there are more tourists, hotel standards are getting better, and there are more water-intensive tourist activities. Climate change is also anticipated to affect the water supply. This study aims to investigate the role of the tourism sector in water resource depletion in Azerbaijan, a country facing water scarcity, and recommend actions for the hotel industry. This research employed a comprehensive analysis of published articles in high-ranked journals to investigate the impact of tourism on water resource depletion in Azerbaijan. The study also analyzed the current state of water resources in the country and identified the major factors contributing to their depletion. The study found that the tourism industry in Azerbaijan significantly contributes to the depletion of water resources through increased water consumption and wastewater production. The analysis also revealed that the major factors affecting water resources in the country include increasing urbanization and global warming. The study recommends that the hotel industry take action to reduce their water consumption and wastewater production to mitigate the impact of tourism on water resources. Additionally, the study proposes that policymakers should prioritize sustainable water resource management practices to ensure the availability of water resources for future generations.

The task about the excitation of magnetoelastic vibrations in geometry of magnetostriction transducer which contains normal magnetized ferrite plate excited by alternating magnetic field is investigated. It is proposed the model presentation of transducer in the view of two connected oscillators first of its corresponds to magnetic part of structure and the second correspond to elastic its part. The first oscillator is linear and the second is nonlinear. The nonlinearity and connection have cubic character. In dependence from the excitation level it is found five basal regimes of vibrations: №1 – synchronize, №2 – three-multiplication of frequency, №3 – chaos, №4 – gigantic oscillations, №5 – delayed stabilization. In these regimes the time-evolvent of vibrations and its parametric portraits in coordinates displacement – derivative from displacement and also frequency spectra of forced vibrations are investigated. The regimes №1б №2 are stable. The vibrations in this regimes are harmonic and complete determined. The regimes №3-№5 are non-stable. The vibrations in this regimes has chaotic or near to chaotic character. On the level of excitation the stable regimes are separated from non-stable by sharp threshold. By the overcoming of which the vibration amplitude increases by sharp jump over two-three orders. By the excitation on non-stable regimes it is established the application on the main vibrations the attendant vibrations. The frequency of attendant vibrations is higher than excitation frequency on two-three orders. The amplitude of attendant vibrations is smaller than the main vibrations amplitude more then two orders. It is proposed the model of attendant vibrations excitations. On the basis of this model the quantity appreciation of vibrations character in non-stable regimes. The recommendations for future development of investigations are proposed.
