ASSESSMENT OF PHYSICIANS' HEALTH CARE NEEDS: IS THERE A LINK WITH QUALITY OF CARE IN SAUDI ARABIA?
Authors: Mahrous Mohamed
Published: October 2018

Background: In daily practice, physicians encounter many health risks. Multiple studies have found that physicians are finding it difficult to access health care, and often resort to self-diagnosis and treatment. Methods: Cross-section analytical observational study. A non-random convenience sampling technique using a preexisting self-administered validated questionnaire. Results: Most of the factors represented a low-to-moderate or neutral level of difficulty, although 42% of respondents said that finding the time to access care was a high priority. Career threatening illnesses were not a significant problem (72 of 456 respondents, or 15.8%), but 54.4% of respondents reported that they had a colleague with a career-threatening illness. Conclusion: The results indicate the need for policy makers and employer to make a greater effort to meet physicians' health care needs. One of the main weaknesses of this study was the sample, as it cannot be considered to be representative of physicians working in Saudi Arabia. The majority of respondents were general and family physicians, so the results may not apply to other specialties that were not represented equally in our sample.

Authors: . Saima , Cullen Julie , Ali Syed Mustafa
Published: October 2018

Background: Short inter-pregnancy intervals result in poor peri-natal outcomes and an increased uptake of Post Partum Intra-Uterine Contraceptive Device (PPIUCD) can help preventing adverse peri-natal outcomes. Search Strategy: Throughout June 2014, AMED , CINAHL Plus, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, MEDLINE (EBSCO), and PsycINFO, were searched using Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) and truncation. Peer reviewed and published articles in past 10 years (2004 to 2014) measuring the improvement in the uptake of PPIUCD through educational interventions have been included in the review. The results of the relevant studies are retrieved by the author and reviewed by the project supervisor to check the relevance of selected evidence. The analysis is carried out by appraising data for similar interventions. Results: Eight studies, accumulatively representing 88071 participants, met the inclusion criteria, including three RCTs, two systematic reviews, one qualitative study, one cross-sectional study and a cohort study. Five studies on educational interventions of postpartum females have showed an increase in uptake of IUCD. Two studies on providers' training have also showed improvement in PPIUCD uptake. However, one study educating postpartum females did not show improved uptake.

Background: Prime Minister's National Health Programme (PMNHP) is a publically funded cashless scheme at point of service, which was initiated in December 2015 to provide access to universal healthcare to people living below poverty line for indoor secondary and tertiary healthcare services for priority diseases in Pakistan. Objective: Our study aimed to compare prices of PMNHP districts packages, compare PMNHP with average payments made to healthcare providers by various health insurance companies, and compare prices among PMNHP itself, public sector not supported by the programme, and private healthcare not supported by the programme in Islamabad Methods: We conducted this comparative descriptive cross sectional study. For first two objectives, we collected secondary data, and for the third objective, we did convenient sampling of the treated patient (n-158) from PMNHP, public and private hospitals for selected diseases. Results: PMNHP district comparisons showed no significant difference among districts except Normal Delivery (NVD) at Rahim Yar Khan had lowest cost (mean=10111.11). For Diabetes Mellitus, Muzaffarabad had lowest (mean=1733.33), and Quetta had highest (mean=5300). Average price paid to healthcare providers by various insurance companies are on higher side as compared to PMMHP. Price differences were significant among PMNHP, Public Out of Pocket Spending (OOPS) and Private For NVD, [F(2, 27)=3364, p=0.000] with PMNHP (mean=15.000, SD=0.000) Public (OOPS) (mean=2.127, SD=0.221) and Private (mean=14.702, SD=0.658) For caesarian section [F(2,27)=2850, p=0.000], and Cholecystectomy, [F(2, 28)=221, p=0.000]. While in comparison with Private, PMNHP were cost beneficial for caesarian section (mean=32.016, SD=1.31) and Cholecystectomy (m=43.133, SD=6.648). Conclusion: PMNHP district wise packages are almost same among and for all the districts. Program is fairly and competitively priced against public and private healthcare providers, and private health insurance healthcare provider payments. PMNHP design features may be used to extend program in other districts.

One third of the world's population is engaged in agriculture sector that makes it the second largest source of employment worldwide including the female population. In developing countries, the agriculture holds 44% of employment share. While agriculture sector in South Asia employs 40% of the people. Livestock workers have to be in close contact with animals and different types of the machinery resulting in high risks of accidents and occupational hazards/ diseases. Environmental factors are also not optimal. Ergonomic difficulties are common i.e. bad working postures, repetitive movements and forceful exertions. A National Occupational Safety and Health Council could be established to protect the health of working folk by legislation and its implementation throughout the country.

Published: October 2018

Background: Superadded HAV infection in patients with chronic liver disease (CLD) or cirrhosis may result in further deterioration of liver functions causing acute on chronic liver failure. The Center for disease control (CDC) strongly recommends to vaccinate all CLD patients against HAV. Methods: All pediatric patients with chronic liver disease for >6 months, after informed consent from their parents were enrolled. HAV immunity was defined as the qualitative presence of HAV IgG antibody (?1.00 reactive) in the serum blood test. All patients with negative HAV IgG were subjected to HAV vaccination and adverse events were also noted. Results: A total of 30 pediatric CLD patients with a mean age of 9.3 Â± 3.9 years were enrolled. Majority of participants were males n=19 (63.3%). The overall prevalence of positive HAV serology (IgG) was 86.7 %. Three participants with negative HAV serology received a series of two vaccines, 6 months apart and HAV IgG titers were checked at 4 weeks after the first and second dose of vaccination. Despite two doses of vaccine satisfactory titer levels could not be achieved. Conclusion: This is the first study from Pakistan in which pediatric CLD patients were evaluated for HAV exposure. Early vaccination is advisable in such patients as advanced liver disease patients may not achieve adequate titers.

However, at this time, the LRC existence in university tended to decrease compared to the condition at its establishment. This article discusses the decrease of the LRC existence, particularly regarding the opportunity of the LRC implementation that is reviewed from the formal basis, policies, and funding sources based on the results of the evaluation research by CIPP evaluation model. The research was conducted in the State University of Jakarta’s learning resources center by a questionnaire which is implements stratified random sampling toward 212 students and 100 lecturers, non-participatory observation, interview with the stakeholders, and documents study of the LRC since 1986 to 2015. The data were analyzed by statistical descriptive and qualitative. The research found that the opportunity for LRC implementation is very weak, due to no a substantively supportive policy and insufficient funding source, even though at the time of its establishment has a strong formal basis. A very weak opportunity could lead to the stunned of LRC in university. Hence, stakeholders should formulate policies that substantially support, and strive fixed and adequate funding sources to reinforce the opportunity of LRC implementation in university for the future.

SUPPRESSING DIFFRACTION EFFECT USING KIRCHHOFF PRE-STACK TIME MIGRATION ON 2D SEISMIC MULTICHANNEL DATA AT FLORES SEA
Authors: Nainggolan Tumpal Benhard , Subarsyah Subarsyah
Published: October 2018

2D seismic multichannel survey has been carried out by Marine Geological Institute of Indonesia to interpret imaging and sub-surface geological information in the Flores Sea. Seismic data processing starts from pre-processing until migration stage. Migration is an important stage in the seismic processing, because at this stage the effects of diffraction and oblique reflectors caused by fault, salt domes, wedging, etc. will be repositioned to the actual points. One example of diffraction effects can be seen on the seismic section of a conventional stacking that have not migrated, i.e. resulting in an apparent bowtie reflector. Geologists find difficulties in interpreting geological information from diffracted seismic section, so it needs further processing to overcome the effects. By using Kirchhoff method and carried out during the Pre-Stack Time Migration (PSTM), this method turns out to produce migrated seismic section which is much better than conventional stacked one. This is due to the Kirchhoff method suppressed the identified diffraction effects, so that the geologist can interpret geological structure of the resulting migrated seismic section of the Flores Sea.

Keywords : 2D seismic multichannel, diffraction, Pre-Stack Time Migration (PSTM), Kirchhoff method.

A Survei seismik 2D multichannel dilaksanakan oleh Marine Geological Institute of Indonesia untuk mengetahui gambaran serta informasi geologi bawah permukaan Laut Flores. Pengolahan data seismik dimulai dari pre-processing sampai tahap migration. Tahap migration merupakan tahap terpenting dalam pengolahan data seismik, oleh karena pada tahap ini efek difraksi dan reflektor miring yang diakibatkan oleh sesar, kubah garam, pembajian, dan lain-lain akan dikembalikan pada keadaan sebenarnya. Salah satu contoh adanya efek difraksi bisa dilihat pada penampang stacking konvensional yaitu â€œbowtieâ€ yang mengakibatkan terjadinya reflektor semu pada penampang seismik. Efek difraksi â€œbowtieâ€ sangat menyulitkan para peneliti dalam memperoleh informasi geologi, sehingga perlu adanya proses lebih lanjut untuk mengatasi efek tersebut. Salah satu metode migrasi yang berkembang saat ini yaitu metode Kirchhoff dan dilakukan pada saat Pre-Stack Time Migration (PSTM), menunjukkan hasil penampang jauh lebih baik daripada penampang stacking konvensional. Hal ini terjadi karena pada metode Kirchhoff Pre-Stack Time Migration, efek difraksi tersebut ditekan lebih awal sehingga penampang yang dihasilkan mampu menggambarkan struktur geologi permukaan Laut Flores Sea. Kata kunci : seismik 2D multikanal, difraksi, Pre-Stack Time Migration (PSTM), metode Kirchhoff.

Authors: Situmorang Herbert , Radityo Dimas
Published: October 2018

Objective: To externally validate EFI in an Indonesian population.

Methods: A prospective study was performed in 59 reproductive aged women diagnosed with both endometriosis and infertility who underwent laparoscopic surgery in Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo and Carolus Hospital during the period of December 2012 to June 2016. Subjects were followed up for two years.

Results: Statistical analyses suggested that younger age, infertility duration  3 years, higher LF score, and AFS score below 71 were significantly associated with pregnancy (p<0.001, p<0.001, p=0.035, p<0.001, respectively). Pregnant subjects had significantly higher median EFI score compared to the not pregnant group [EFI score 7 (5-9) vs 4 (1-8), p<0.001)].

Conclusion: Higher EFI score was significantly associated with higher pregnancy rate.

Objective: To investigate the degree of cystocele and rectocele with a maximum of levator hiatal area (AHL) during Valsava.

Methods: Secondary data analysis of 90 patients with uterine prolapse January 2012 to November 2013 in the clinic Uroginekologi RSCM, Jakarta. 3D/4D ultrasound measurement and pelvic organ prolapse system Quantification (POP-Q) stage I-IV cystocele and rectocelestage I-IV. All statistical analyses were analyzed using Stata 20 for Windows.

Results: Significant difference cystocele stage I-II (n = 25) with stage III-IV (n = 65), the maximum AHL with a difference of 4.33 cm2 (p = 0.040). In rectocele stage I-II (n = 64) and stage III-IV (n = 26) of 3.85 cm2 (p = 0.130). AUC values for stage I-II and III-IV cystocele was 0.607 (IK95% from 0.467 to 0.738), and the ROC for rectocele was 0.603 (IK95% from 0.472 to 0.734). The ROC optimal cut point for cystocele stage I-II with III-IV with the highestsensitivity and specificity is 29 cm2 (0.523 sensitivity, specificity 0.520), the rectocele is 30 cm2 (0.538 sensitivity, specificity 0.584).

Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between the degree of cystocele and area of the levator ani muscles when Valsava, but there is no relationship at rectocele. The value of maximum area under the curve (AUC) hiatal area of the levatorani muscle in distinguishing stage I-II and III-IV cystocele are relatively similar to rectocele stage I-II and III-IV. Optimal cut point hiatal area of the levatorani muscle in distinguishing stage I-II and III-IV cystoceleis 29 cm2, while for rectocele is 30 cm2 with sensitivity and specificity values were quite good.

Análisis microbiológico de algunas infusiones de hierbas medicinales.
Authors: L. Arias María , Chaves Carolina , Diego Alfaro Luis
Published: October 2018

Introducción. La menta (Mentha piperita) y el anís de estrella (Illicium verum) representan algunas de las plantas que se han procesado y comercializado con fines terapéuticos entre otros. A pesar de las propiedades que poseen las hierbas medicinales, no se puede descartar la presencia de componentes químicos dañinos a la salud o bien agentes microbiológicos que pueden generar serios problemas de salud en el consumidor. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la calidad bacteriológica de dos de las más consumidas en Costa Rica: menta y anís de estrella. Así mismo, se pretendió determinar el efecto de diferentes tipos de tratamiento térmico sobre la carga bacteriológica de las infusiones. Material y métodos. se analizó el recuento total aerobio, recuento de coliformes totales, recuento de coliformes fecales y recuento de Pseudomonas aeruginosa de 24 muestras de infusión de menta y 24 muestras de infusión de anís de estrella, siguiendo la metodología descrita por Vanderzant y Splittstoesser. Adem ás se evaluó la sobrevivencia bacteriana al preparar la infusión de hierbas mediante el método convencional de cocimiento, hervida o en microondas. Resultados. Los resultados obtenidos demuestran que el 85.7% de las muestras de la infusión de menta y 8.3% de las de anís presentan recuentos totales que sobrepasan la norma internacional de la OMS. El 100% de las muestras de menta incumplieron esta norma para coliformes totales y el 41.7% para coliformes fecales; contrario al anís de estrella, en que el 100% de las muestras cumple con la norma propuesta. Los niveles encontrados de Pseudomonas aeruginosa en ambos tipos de infusión fueron mayores a la tolerancia establecida por la USP (United States Pharmacopeia). Los resultados de sobrevivencia demuestran que tanto el método convencional como el microondas no logran eliminar todas las bacterias presentes en las infusiones de hierbas. Discusión. Los resultados de este estudio evidencian serias deficiencias en la calidad microbiológica en las infusiones de hierbas edicinales, por lo cual es importante desarrollar reglamentos con respecto a los controles que deben efectuarse a éstas de manera que no representen un riesgo para la salud de los consumidores.
