Authors: Arif Tahira , Sadia Rizwan  , Imtiaz Ahmed  , Waqas Ahmed Farooqui
Published: July 2024

Objective: To determine the relationship of anterior occlusion and skeletal variables with the frontal sinus index.
Method: The retrospective, analytical, cross-sectional, study was conducted from July to November 2020 at Dr Ishrat-ul-Ebad Khan Institute of Oral Health Sciences and Dow Dental College, Dow University of Health Sciences, Karachi, and comprised data from 2015 to 2018 related to pre-treatment lateral cephalograms for determining frontal sinus index and other cephalometric variables. The dental casts were observed for incisor classification. Patients with Class I incisors formed the comparison group, while the rest comprised 5 malocclusion groups. The frontal sinus was traced, and the sinus index was calculated. Data was analysed using STATA 15 and R 3.5.1.
Results: Of the 240 subjects, there were 40(16.66%) in each of the 6 groups; 155(64.6%) females and 85(35.4%) males. The mean age of the sample was 21.33±3.52 years (range: 16-29 years). The mean sinus index was higher in all malocclusion groups than the comparison group, but it was significantly higher only in Class II division 2 and anterior open bite groups (p<0.05). The only exception to the trend was Class II division 1 with and without contact in which the value was lower (p>0.05). The anterior cranial base length, sella-nasion mandibular plane angle, and upper incisor palatal plane angle significantly affected the frontal sinus index (p<0.05).
Conclusion: The frontal sinus index could be considered an indicator of harmonious anterior occlusion.
Key Words: Frontal sinus, Cephalometry, Dental occlusion, Malocclusion.

Published: July 2024

Background. Today, tumors of the central nervous system are the leading cause of mortality among pediatric cancers, and the region of the posterior cranial fossa (PCF) is one of the most common localizations. Despite availability of neuroimaging methods, such pediatric tumors are diagnosed long after the onset of appropriate symptoms. Aim. To assess the posterior cranial fossa tumor diagnosis time, initial complaints and symptoms, as well as the events occurring between the advent of complaints and the diagnosis. Methods. The pre-hospital and outpatient care reports of 79 children, who underwent surgery due to intracranial tumors of the posterior cranial fossa in the Burdenko National Medical Research Center of Neurosurgery in 2021-2023, were assessed. The possible causes of delayed proper diagnosis were analyzed. Results. Headache is the main reason for seeking medical care, however, it seldom becomes the reason for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in children. The average time between the onset of symptoms and the diagnosis of the PCF tumor is almost 4.5 months. In 37.9% of cases, the MRI scan was the initiative of the patients' parents, and the parents' time frame of independent decision making did not differ from the time frame of the physician's decision to send a child with appropriate symptoms for MRI. In other words, neuroimaging was performed when the condition worsened, and worsening was obvious for anybody without medical training. The low level of concern in primary care providers and the significant systemic causes that slow down the diagnosis are among the reasons of such a long wait for the diagnosis.

The article presents a clinical observation of a patient with acute myeloid leukemia, which required differential diagnosis with myelodysplastic syndrome. At admission, the reason was the suspicion of decompensation of chronic heart failure, but the clinical and hematological picture required the exclusion of myeloproliferative disease. The differential diagnosis was complicated by the peculiarities of the myelogram data, and therefore it was necessary to repeat both the sternal puncture and the consultation with a hematologist. This observation illustrates that a single myelogram may not always serve as a sufficient and unambiguous guide, although it is certainly an important diagnostic method, and perhaps its features were due to the fact that we observed the process of transition of myelodysplastic syndrome to acute myeloid leukemia (this transformation is considered a "commonplace" in hematology, but there are practically no descriptions of the observation of its process in the literature).

Biological view of the development of mental disorders was described back in the days of Hippocrates in his humoral theory considering the brain as a place of origin of all emotions and therefore rejecting the earlier theories suggesting that psychic phenomena resulted from divine intervention. Later his ideas transformed to produce, inter alia, the Kraepelin’s allegation. Kraepelin described mental disorder as a “natural biological process” and suggested to divide mental disorders into two large groups, dementia praecox and la folie circulaire, based on this allegation. Differentiation was based on intellectual impairment that was more severe in patients with schizophrenia than in patients with bipolar disorder. Current research has revealed considerable clinical and genetic similarity of two disorders. However, in contrast to schizophrenia, the data of patients with bipolar disorder indicate no intellectual impairment. Furthermore, the risk of bipolar disorder is associated with higher premorbid IQ. Can we suppose that the genes that determine such cognitive differences are just genes and their mutations that determine lower IQ in the general population, but not the disease-associated genes? High efficacy of antipsychotics against both disorders is the other common phenomenon revealed in modern times. Modern antipsychotics that will be discussed in this paper show higher efficacy and safety.

Published: July 2024

Degenerative-dystrophic changes in the musculoskeletal system of various localizations are one of the most common reasons for patients to turn not only to a rheumatologist, but also to a neurologist and first-contact doctors (therapist and general practitioner) who provide primary health care. Medicines that modify the symptoms of degenerative-dystrophic changes in the musculoskeletal system are divided into “fast-acting” (analgesics, NSAIDs, tramadol) and “slow-acting” (chondroprotectors). When considering “slow-acting” drugs, many publications are devoted to the natural components of the cartilage intercellular substance – glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate, while much less attention is paid to the importance of collagen. In articular cartilage, collagens provide most of the biomechanical properties of the extracellular matrix necessary for its function. Collagen hydrolysates have demonstrated positive results in clinical trials related to joint health, such as reducing joint pain, increasing mobility, and improving joint structure. Marine collagen is the closest in molecular structure to human collagen fibers. Its main characteristics include high biological activity and biocompatibility, as well as low antigenicity. The possible effects of vitamin C, vitamin D3, zinc and calcium in the complex treatment of degenerative-dystrophic changes in the musculoskeletal system are considered. A biological supplement containing vitamins, microelements and hydrolyzed marine collagen Promerim® optimizes the prevention and treatment of patients with degenerative changes in the musculoskeletal system.

The number of elderly in our society is increasing. Psychiatric problems are common in this population. For adults aged 18 to 65, there already is psychiatric crisis home treatment for patients experiencing a psychiatric crisis at home. However, this did not yet exist in Belgium for adults over the age of 65. Since the 1st of November 2021, people over 65 who are experiencing a psychiatric crisis in the region of the Ghent-Eeklo-Flemish Ardennes Mental Health Care Network (PAKT) can rely on psychiatric crisis home treatment. For this reason, it was investigated whether this treatment is effective and cost-effective. There are currently no studies available on this subject. For this reason, different sub-aspects were considered. The effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of long-term psychiatric home treatment teams in elderly & adults and of psychiatric crisis home treatment teams (MCT) in adults older than 18 years were assessed. Finally, we looked for the characteristics of adults who were included for psychiatric crisis care at home and whether these are present in adults older than 65 years. Since there are no studies on MCT in the elderly, it is not possible to draw conclusions on the subject. However, a general trend is noted in the studies whereby the treatment always appears to be effective and often also cost-effective. However, further research is needed to confirm that this will also be the case for MCT for the elderly in Belgium.

Islamic Financial Institutions were established as an application of Muslims' understanding of several principles in Islamic economic law and are developing every year. Takaful contributed 2 percent of total sharia financial assets in 2021; however, in 2019–2020, the development of takaful assets decreased compared to the previous year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. There are several factors that influence profit instability in takaful industry. This study will examine the factors that influence the level of profit in takaful in Indonesia and Malaysia throughout 2017–2022, acquired a sample of 11 firms and obtained secondary data for this study from the official websites of Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) and the Financial Services Authority (OJK). Utilizing methods for quantitative research, specifically a purposive sampling approach and panel data regression modeling. The research results show that the variables premium, return on investment, risk-based capital, and claims expenses have a major favorable impact on takaful profitability, while liquidity has a major negative impact on the same. Simultaneously, the premium variables, investment returns, risk-based capital, liquidity, and claims costs simultaneously influence the profitability of takaful.
Overview of the Impact of Compost on Bulk Density, Aggregate Consistency and Cation Exchange Capacity of Soils and its Consequential Effect on Crop Productivity

Organic fertilizers offer several advantages over chemical fertilizers and are an environmentally friendly alternative that could help sustainably farmed land. Reviewing indigenous knowledge of the agronomic applications of organic manure and its possible contribution to agricultural growth was the goal of this article. It is evident that organic manures from various plant and animal sources can be used to satisfy certain field needs. However, the use of organic manures is still primarily conventional since they have not been well received by agricultural strategies. When bulky organic manures are directly applied to soil, they accelerate mineralization and reduce the rate at which nutrients, especially nitrogen, are released. Compared to raw resources, which have limited value and certain disadvantages, composting these wastes appears to offer significant potential. The majority of researchers verified that adding compost might enhance the soil's organic matter content, nutrient status, and physical, chemical, and biological properties. Soil organic matter concentrations rise in every long-term compost treatment study. But since they contain more stable carbon than fresh or immature composts, mature composts raise Soil organic matter considerably more effectively. Furthermore, because compost has so many beneficial effects on the physical, chemical, and biological aspects of soil, it helps to stabilize and improve crop quality and yield. As a result, the majority of studies have demonstrated that compost has an equalizing influence on seasonal and annual variations in soil temperature, air, water, and plant nutrient availability, as well as crop yields. mostly due to the nutrients' gradual release and availability in compost-combined fertilization techniques, which frequently yield positive outcomes. Therefore, composting can be a useful choice for building effective plant-nutrient management methods in many settings for sustainable agricultural systems within small-scale farming in impoverished nations.
Evaluating Diagnostic Thresholds for Pneumonia Severity Using HOG Features and Deep Learning Models
Authors: Olatunde Olukemi Victoria
Published: July 2024

Pneumonia severity diagnosis is vital for effective and efficient patient treatment and management. This study evaluates the efficacy of different diagnostic thresholds for pneumonia severity using Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) features and deep learning models on chest X-ray images. Utilizing the Kaggle chest X-ray dataset, HOG feature extraction was applied, followed by Pearson correlation to compare a randomly selected X-ray with pneumonia images. Three diagnostic thresholds were used for severity diagnosis. The results demonstrated that all thresholds performed well in detecting moderate cases, with Threshold1 and Threshold2 both achieving an accuracy of 89% and an F1-score of 0.94. Threshold3 had an accuracy of 66% and F1-scores of 0.62 and 0.94 in identifying mild and moderate cases, respectively. The evaluation metrics included accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score. These findings suggest that careful selection of diagnostic thresholds can significantly impact the accuracy and reliability of pneumonia severity diagnosis using deep learning models, with potential applications in clinical settings.
Perspectives of Urban Hotel Managers and Guests on Environmental, Social, and Economic Sustainability Practices

Published: July 2024

The hospitality industry exerts significant environmental impact through water consumption, energy use, and waste generation. Urban hotels, particularly those branding as “lifestyle” establishments, increasingly adopt sustainable practices to mitigate their footprint. However, there’s often a mismatch between how hotel managers perceive their sustainability efforts and guests’ perceptions. This study assessed sustainability practices’ adequacy from guests’ and managers’ perspectives in urban hotels. Employing an Explanatory Sequential Mixed Method Design, quantitative data from 205 guests and qualitative insights from 19 hotel managers were collected and analysed using descriptive statistics and reflexive thematic analysis respectively. The results showed that guests generally rated environmental and economic sustainability practices highly but perceived social sustainability practices less favorably. Managers acknowledged the impact of environmental and social sustainability practices but downplayed economic initiatives, despite their underlying motivations for adopting the other sustainability practices. Both guests and managers concurred on the effectiveness of waste, water, and energy management practices. However, discordance was noted regarding the adequacy of social sustainability practices, with managers emphasizing human resources and community initiatives less visible to guests. The study recommends enhancing communication on sustainability efforts to bridge perception gaps and involve guests more in initiatives, fostering competitiveness. Future research should conduct comparative studies across regions to explore variations in sustainability practices and their effectiveness.
