WHO states that schizophrenia reach the second highest rank after infectious diseases. 45% population of mental hospitals in the world are schizophrenic patients who stay for a long time due to repeated relapses. Relapse will lead to negative effect such as tantrums, act anarchically, or even hurt others or suicide. Negative effect will lead public assumption that skizoprenia can’t be cured, eventhough individual factors such as emotional expression, family support, medication adherence factors and the social environment were also take a role caused relapse. This study aims to determine the factors that influence the relapse rate of schizophrenic patients, so that it can be used as a reference for developing strategies to overcome recurrent relapses in schizophrenic patients. The results show that the majority factors caused relapse were family support, medication adherence, and social support. The result of this study indicate the importance of the role of the family, patients compliance in taking medication, and support from the surrounding environment in the treatment of paranoid schizophrenic patients.

Published: June 2022

This study aims to find out the strategies of PAI teachers in teaching moral values, growing awareness of moral values, monitoring students’ behavior, and having preventive and curative efforts against juvenile delinquency in primary schools. Descriptive qualitative method was used in this research. Techniques of data collections were interview, observation, and documentation. The data were analyzed by reducing data, displaying data, and drawing conclusion and verification. The result of this research described that there are two teachers’ strategies in teaching moral values to the primary students, namely lecture and discussion. While, in growing students’ awareness of moral values, teachers gave advices and familiarized the students with school regulations and routine programs. Next, teachers supervised the students directly and provided guidance for deviant behavior. Furthermore, to prevent juvenile delinquency, teachers supervised the students, communicated and collaborated with parents, and made regulations. Last, curative efforts were carried out by giving reward and punishment and facilitating a personal approach to the students.

Authors: Dulina О. А. , Eskova Е. V. , Tarasenko А. D. , Kotova S. V.
Published: June 2022

Objectives. The influence of the technological additive content and accelerated aging conditions on the surface energy and elastic-strength properties of nitrile butadiene rubbers with an average acrylic acid nitrile content and rubbers based on them were studied in the paper.

Methods. The free surface energy of the samples was determined under the standard conditions and in the accelerated aging conditions with the use of the Owens, Wendt, Rabel, and Kaelble method.

Results. It was shown that the elastomeric materials surface energy is influenced by surfactants such as rosin and stearic acid, which are typical ingredients of rubber compounds. It was also found that the thermal aging effect on the physical and mechanical properties of rubbers based on nitrile butadiene rubbers depends on the method of rubber isolation from latex and on the nature of the surfactant components in the samples.

Conclusions. The analysis of the results obtained shows that the change in the vulcanizates physical and mechanical properties, depending on the technological additive content and the temperature effect, occurs along with a change in the critical surface tension.

Greetings!

Research develops several virtues: inquisitiveness, attention to detail, patience, critical thinking and a passion for knowledge. Research should also be relevant and timely. During the past few months, much more than at any period in our lifetime, there has been an explosion of studies, reviews, editorials, and other manuscripts released online or published in peer reviewed journals. Some have been released to the media prior to the actual publication of the complete research. The COVID-19 pandemic has spurred bogus, pseudo and ground-breaking research. But more than anything, the pandemic has motivated everyone to ask questions and to pay more attention to Science.

The Philippine Society of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery is committed to support all activities related to research. It hosts workshops on medical writing and sponsors the annual interesting case, descriptive, analytical and surgical technique-instrument innovation contests. Its journal, thanks to the indefatigable Editor-in-Chief Dr. Lapeña, publishes papers that contribute to the promotion and enhancement of the practice of otolaryngology. The Society is also grateful to all the contributors, board of editors and peer reviewers who contribute to the journal’s success. We look forward to working again with all of you in the upcoming issues.

Good reading to all!
Cerebro-Spinal Fluid Leak in Skull Base Reconstruction Using Hadad - Bassagasteguy Flap after Endoscopic Endonasal Transsphenoidal Surgery: A Case Series
Authors: Formalejo Jan Paul , Amable Jay Pee
Published: June 2022

Objective: To determine the incidence of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak after Hadad[1]Bassagasteguy Flap (HBF) reconstruction after endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgery for skull base pathologies from 2016 to 2020 at the University of the East Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Medical Center.

Methods:

Design: Case Series

Setting: Tertiary Private Training Hospital

Participants: Charts of 35 patients who underwent endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgery with reconstruction using Hadad-Bassagasteguy flap between January 2016 to February 2020 were reviewed and data on demographics, date of procedure, mass size, final diagnosis, presence of preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative CSF leak, placement of lumbar drain and course in the wards were collected.

Results: There were 23 women and 12 men with ages ranging from 21 to 71 years. Four patients (11.4%) had postoperative CSF leak after reconstruction with HBF. Two of these four patients had episodes of nose blowing and sneezing weeks after surgery, prior to the development of the CSF leak. The other two patients experienced CSF leak 3 days postoperatively.

Conclusion: HBF has been a workhorse for reconstruction of skull base defects after transsphenoidal surgery, and based on our experience remains to be so, making it possible for expanded approaches and a wide variety of pathologies to be operated on via the endonasal route
Approach to a Sewing Needle in the Parapharyngeal Space: A Case Report
Authors: Bettadahalli Vishaka , Bhargava Rahul , Kumar Sunil
Published: June 2022

ABSTRACT

Objective: To describe a unique situation of a sewing needle lodged in the parapharyngeal space and elucidate the problems encountered in its successful removal.

Methods:

Design: Case Report

Setting: Tertiary Private Hospital

Patient: One                                               

Result: A 24-year-old male tailor accidentally swallowed a sewing needle that pierced the oropharyngeal wall and was wedged in the parapharyngeal space. After a thorough physical examination, 70 degree rod endoscopy, radiography and doppler ultrasonography and intraoperative C-arm X-ray for intraoperative localization and as a guide for extraction all yielded less than optimal guidance. Although an intra-oral approach was initially taken, the transcervical approach provided the best access.

Conclusion: Removal of a sharp foreign body in the parapharyngeal space should be considered a surgical emergency owing to its close proximity to vital structures and the potential for serious complications. Identifying the exact location may require a variety of imaging modalities, and foreign body extraction may entail multiple surgical approaches.

Background: To find a correlation between serum cholesterol and Bone mineral density in post menopausal women

Methods: The experimental group consisted of 100 females at postmenopausal age, in which by the DEXA method was diagnosed osteoporosis while the control group consisted of 100 females in a postmenopausal age but without diagnosed osteoporosis who served as controls.

Results: Postmenopausal women in the BMI range 18.5 to 25 (normal)were only included in the study. Others were excluded from the study to avoid confounding factors. The mean BMI in women with osteoporosis was 22.03±1.54 kg/mt2 and in Group-II was 21.09±2.12 kg/mt2. The results were statistically insignificant. Analyzing the average values of serum cholesterol in our study,we found that the mean cholesterol level in group-I was 216.32 ±33.12 mg/dl and 182.32 ±52.10 mg/dl in group-II. The mean cholesterol level was significantly higher in women with osteoporosis.

Conclusion: On the decrease in bone mineral density and osteoporosis in postmenopausal women influence many risk factors. Preventive strategies for development of osteoporosis should be initiated in women with elevated serum cholesterol levels.

Keywords: Osteoporosis, Menopause, Lipid Profile, BMI.

Kyoto Üniversitesi Kenan Rifai Tasavvuf Araştırmaları Merkezinin yayınladığı Tasavvuf Araştırmaları serisinin üçüncü kitabı olarak 2018’de Kyoto’da Islamic Studies and the Study of Sufism in Academia: Rethinking Methodologies[1] başlığıyla yayımlanan kitapta “Searching for New Horizons in Sufi Studies’ Methodology in Turkey” başlıklı kitap bölümümüzün tercümesini bu yazıda sunuyoruz. Ancak, bu makalede çevirinin yanı sıra gerekli gördüğümüz eklemeleri de yaptık. Tecrübî tarih yazıcılığının bir türünü iki yükseköğretim kurumu ve faaliyetlerini değerlendirerek örneklendiren bu makalede; İslâm ve tasavvuf çalışmalarıyla da bilinen, aynı zamanda birer araştırma kurumu da olan Üsküdar Üniversitesi ile Kyoto Üniversitesi arasında gerçekleştirilen iş birliği programları derinlemesine incelenmektedir. Japonya’daki Kenan Rifai Tasavvuf Araştırmaları Merkezi, Kyoto Üniversitesi bünyesinde 2016 yılında kurulmuştur. Merkezin açılış merâsiminden sonra kendileriyle yapılan mülâkatlarda profesörler Yasushi Kosugi, Yasushi Imamatsu ve Yasushi Tonaga, uzun süredir ihtiyaç duyulan bu merkezin, tasavvuf alanında akademik araştırmalara gereken ortamı oluşturacağını ve aynı zamanda tasavvuf hakkında kamuya bilgi sağlama konusunda hizmet vereceğini söylemişlerdir.[2] Bu değerli akademisyenlere göre, Japonya’da Osmanlı tarihine dâir çalışmalar mevcuttur; ancak, Osmanlı düşünce dünyası ve bilhassa tasavvuf düşüncesi hakkındaki araştırmalar ihmal edilmiştir, denilebilir. Merkezin Japonya ve bütün dünyadan akademisyen ve öğrencilere ev sahipliği yaparak uzun zamandır beklenen çalışmalara kapı açacağı düşünülmektedir. Kendileri, mülâkatlarında; sadece Japonya’da değil, bütün dünyada Osmanlı dönemi mutasavvıfları hakkında yeterli çalışma yapılmadığını, kurulan Kenan Rifai Tasavvuf Araştırmaları Merkezi mârifetiyle yeni fırsatlar oluşturulabileceğini vurgulamışlardır.

Naso-pharyngeal carriage and antimicrobial susceptibility of Streptococcus pneumoniae in community-acquired pneumonia in children
Authors: Nguyen Phong Thi Nam , Buyck Julien M. , Baker Stephen , Nguyen Trang Hoang Thu , Pham Tin Viet , Do Tuoi Thi Hong
Published: June 2022

Streptococcus pneumoniae is the most common cause of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in children. Recently, the rapid emergence of antibiotic-resistant pneumococci has posed enormous challenges for CAP treatment and public health. This study aims to provide clinicians with updated data about the antimicrobial susceptibility of S. pneumoniae and improve the treatment guidelines in CAP in children.

This cross-sectional and in-vitro study was conducted at three hospitals in Quang Nam province and Da Nang city in Vietnam. Pneumococcal strains were isolated from nasopharyngeal aspirate samples of 360 CAP in-patients under five years of age. The susceptibility of clinically used antibiotics was investigated using the disk diffusion test and the E-test for identifying the MIC. Multi-drug resistant (MDR) S. pneumoniae isolates were also determined.

21.9% of CAP children patients were pneumococcal carriage. The susceptibility testing demonstrated that all 56 tested pneumococcal isolates were resistant to erythromycin and azithromycin, whereas none of the isolates developed the resistance to levofloxacin, vancomycin, and linezolid. The clindamycin- and cotrimoxazole-resistant pneumococci rates were 96.4% and 87.5%, respectively. For β-lactam antibiotics, the resistance proportions of pneumococcal isolates to penicillin G, co-amoxiclav, amoxicillin, cefotaxime, and ceftriaxone were 3.6%,1.8%, 1.8%, 1.8%, and 3.6%, respectively. 83.9% of the tested isolates were MDR S. pneumoniae.

Our data support using penicillin G, amoxicillin, co-amoxiclav, or cefotaxime as the first-line therapy for uncomplicated-pneumococci-induced CAP in Quang Nam – Da Nang, while vancomycin, linezolid, and levofloxacin should be used as alternatives or in MDR cases.

Traffic optimization in wifi networks for the internet of things
Authors: Starchenko Vyacheslav
Published: June 2022

One of the main problems of modern IoT networks is the large amount of automated traffic generated by their nodes. This puts a significant strain on modern communications networks, which will only increase over time. One way to overcome this problem is to optimize the data structure and improve the methods of data collection, transmission and processing. The purpose of this study is to optimize traffic in the IoT network at the level of software architecture and data representation. The object of the study is the FireBeetle Covers-24 x 8 LED Matrix ESP32, which is controlled by the HOLTEK HT1632C controller, connected via WiFi - interface with the IoT network, implemented on the basis of the ESP8266 microcontroller. The subject of the research is the process of optimizing program code by choosing the most efficient software architecture. The article considers the three most common software architectures and gives examples of their implementation. The architecture based on REST technology was the first to be considered. This technology is the most popular and widespread due to the simplicity of concept and implementation. But its disadvantage is the significant congestion of the communication line with a large amount of the same type of service information. Reducing the amount of service information by optimizing the HTML page code using JavaScript is demonstrated by the example of the second software architecture. But such optimization does not allow to completely separate the static and dynamic components of the information transmitted by the communication line. This division can easily be done within the software architecture based on Ajax & JSON, an example of which is given in the third. The great advantage of this architecture is that the static component is transmitted by the network only once at the beginning of the communication session. Then only the dynamic component is transmitted. According to the results of testing the developed hardware and software module and comparing the amount of generated data transmitted by WiFi network, it is shown that the software architecture based on Ajax & JSON has the highest network efficiency, significantly reducing network traf6fic compared to others.
The synchronization of medical systems databases: models and methods
Authors: Hahen Valentyn
Published: June 2022

In order to build a system of medical information exchange, it is necessary that different medical systems are compatible with each other. If the systems are incompatible, compatibility must be achieved by achieving semantic and syntactic compatibility of systems. If compatibility is achieved, databases of different systems must be synchronized. To achieve this goal, a study was conducted to examine the most popular models and methods of synchronization of medical data. Thus, there are several different ways to synchronize medical information between two systems. The most common are replication, ETL, and two-way synchronization.

Authors: Kuang Guixing , Li Bixiong , Mo Site , Hu Xiangxin , Li Lianghui
Published: June 2022

At present, machine learning methods are widely used in various industries for their high adaptability, optimization function, and self-learning reserve function. Besides, the world-famous cities have almost built and formed subway networks that promote economic development. This paper presents the art states of Defect detection of Shield Tunnel lining based on Machine learning (DSTM). In addition, the processing method of image data from the shield tunnel is being explored to adapt to its complex environment. Comparison and analysis are used to show the performance of the algorithms in terms of the effects of data set establishment, algorithm selection, and detection devices. Based on the analysis results, Convolutional Neural Network methods show high recognition accuracy and better adaptability to the complexity of the environment in the shield tunnel compared to traditional machine learning methods. The Support Vector Machine algorithms show high recognition performance only for small data sets. To improve detection models and increase detection accuracy, measures such as optimizing features, fusing algorithms, creating a high-quality data set, increasing the sample size, and using devices with high detection accuracy can be recommended. Finally, we analyze the challenges in the field of coupling DSTM, meanwhile, the possible development direction of DSTM is prospected.
Development of An Electronic Referral Proforma from Paramedics to General Practitioners: A Delphi Study
Authors: Delardes Belinda , Chakraborty Samantha , Smith Karen , Bowles Kelly-Ann
Published: June 2022

Introduction

Currently, non-transported patients who are attended to by a state-funded ambulance service in Victoria and are advised to visit their general practitioner (GP) do not have informational continuity of care, as there is no communication between the referring paramedic and GP. This research aimed to develop a functional electronic referral (e-referral) proforma from paramedics to GPs that can be used to support handover of patients’ clinical information for non-transported patients.

Methods

Paramedics, GPs and digital health experts were invited to participate in the study. The study design utilised an online Delphi technique, where participants responded to three rounds of surveys relating to the pertinence, feasibility, content and presentation of an e-referral tool. Questions were open-ended or requested responses on a 5-point Likert scale.

Results

A total of 21 clinicians participated in the study and developed an e-referral proforma. After three rounds, participants agreed the proforma should contain the following information: the patients’ identifying information, presenting complaint, social concerns, vital sign survey, management or advice given to the patient and reason for referral. Stakeholders stressed that the mode and timing of delivery must be flexible enough so that implementing the e-referral proforma does not become burdensome for clinicians.

Conclusion

A structured e-referral system between paramedics and GPs is feasible and offers a method to improve informational continuity of care and in turn, patient safety.

Published: June 2022

Background: Urethral stricture diseases are common urological problems in our country. The etiologies include iatrogenic, trauma, infection, congenital and very few are idiopathic. Urethral strictures have the potential for great negative impact on patients. These have several treatment modalities, ranging from simple dilations to complex multistaged urethroplasties. Optical internal urethrotomy and anastomotic urethroplasty are the common procedures among them which are particular topics in this study.
Objectives: To evaluate the outcome of two surgical techniques- Optical Internal Urethrotomy (OIU) and Anastomotic Urethroplasty.
Methodology: A total of 50 patients with short segment bulbar urethral strictures were consecutively included in the study. Purposive sampling method was applied. The present outcome clinical study was conducted in the department of Urology, National Institute of Kidney Diseases and Urology, Sher-E-Bangla Nagar, Dhaka, Bangladesh over a period of 1 year from February 2016 to January 2017. Student’s t-test and chi-square test were applied for hypothesis testing. ‘P’ value <0.05 was considered as significant.
Result: There is no significant difference between two groups regarding age, history of previous operation for stricture urethra, mode of clinical presentations before intervention, immediate post-operative complication and uroflowmetry during follow-up. But length of stricture of two groups, urinary stream at 3 and 6 months after operation, urinary tract infection at 6 month after operation, recurrence of stricture in two groups were statistically significant (p<0.05).
Conclusion: The study concluded that anastomotic urethroplasty was an effective and satisfactory technique for the treatment of short segment bulbar urethral stricture. The morbidity and complications were low and outcomes were excellent.

Purpose: This study aims at finding the outcome and complications of perineal end toend posterior anastomotic urethroplasty in the management of posterior urethral injuryresulting from pelvic fracture.
Methods: We performed 49 perinealbulbo-prostatic anastomotic urethroplasty for PFUIsfrom January, 2013 to April, 2017. Mean age was 37 years with majority between 21 to50 years (>85%). All were male patients. Three patients had history of failed anastomoticurethroplasty. Patients were selected as per selection criteria; detailed history and preoperativeinvestigations were done and were prepared for operation after adequatecounseling. After surgical intervention patients were discharged with a supra-pubiccatheter (SPC) and per urethral catheter in situ. On 22nd POD urethral catheter wasremoved and SPC on the next day if patient can void normally. 1st and 2nd follow updone on of 3rd and 6th month respectively following surgery. If patient voided well andQmax>15ml/ sec; repair was defined as successful.
Results: Success rate of perinealbulbo-prostatic anastomotic urethroplasty for pelvicfracture urethral injury was 89.79%. Total 5 procedures were failed including 1 urethrocutaneousfistula and needed re-do anastomosis. Erectile dysfunction (ED) was presentin 6 patients before operation and after surgery 4 more patients developed ED and totalnumber was 10 during first follow up, which reduced to 8 during second follow-up. Onepatient developed incontinence which improved in subsequent follow-up.
Conclusions: Anastomotic urethroplasty remains the cornerstone in the managementof PFUI. A long term follow-up for at least 5 to 10 years is needed to make a comment onultimate outcome of this procedure which may have positive impact in future patientmanagement.

Detection of LBW Newborn by Measuring Chest Circumference
Authors: Uddin Mohammed Jamal , Hoque Md Mahbubul , Nazia Sahifa , Chowdhury Abu Sayeed , Khanam Morsheda
Published: June 2022

Background: Birth weight is the most sensitive and reliable indicator of child survival and the health of the community. Anthropometric measurements have been proposed as surrogate for birth-weight. These include the chest, head and mid upper arm circumferences of the newborn. In most studies done so far chest circumference has the highest sensitivity followed by head circumference, mid upper arm circumference (MUAC) and foot length to identify LBW newborn . Chest and Head circumference is used to identify LBW newborn in developing country.

Objectives: Detection of LBW newborn by measuring chest circumference.

Methods: Two hundred term and preterm newborns were taken. All measurements were taken within 0-48 hours of delivery. Babies were weighed naked by electronic weighing scale (Tronix pediatrics weighing scale- 4800) to the nearest 20 gm. Chest circumference were measured at the level of nipple at the end phase of expiration with the help of a flexible non-stretchable tape to the nearest of 0.1 cm. The best cutoff point of chest circumference for detecting low-birth-weight <30.5 cm at low risk (who are low birth weight) and lower cut-off points of <29.5 cm at higher risk (who are very low birth weight) were taken as working definition. Results: This study showed the prevalence of low birth-weight was 65% and the mean birth weight was 2478±700 gm. This study also showed that 39.5% percent were term babies. Chest circumference has significant correlation with birth weight (r-0.765). It is also observed that newborns with chest circumference <30.5 cm the chance of low birth weight is 96.2% and when chest circumference will be >30.5 cm 92.6% of them will not be low birth weight.

Conclusion: This study showed that in absence of a weighing scale, simple measurement like chest circumference may be the best indicator to identify newborns with low birth weight (<2500 gm). Chest circumference has significant correlation with birth weight and it is an indicator to identify LBW neonates.

Published: June 2022

Influence of tetrabutylammoniumbromide (TBAB) on the chemical speciation of binary complexes of copper (II) with biologically important ligands, L-glutamine, and succinic acid has been studied in varying concentrations (0.0-3.0 %, w/v) of TBAB-water mixtures using a Control Dynamics-APX 175E/C pH meter at an ionic strength of 0.16 mol dm-3 and temperature 303 K. The models for the species of these ligands are refined by using the computer programs SCPHD and MINIQUAD75. Copper(II) active forms are ML, ML2, and ML2H for succinic acid and ML2 and ML2H for L-glutamine. The variation of stability constants with % w/v TBAB is explained based on electrostatic and non-electrostatic forces. The formed species distribution with pH at different solvent compositions and equilibria of the species are reported in the present study. The plausible structures for refined species are also presented.
Ranking Fuzzy Numbers with Unified Integral Value and Comparative Reviews
Authors: Prasad S. , Sinha A.
Published: June 2022

Fuzzy numbers represent ambiguous numeric values; therefore, it is difficult to rank them according to their magnitude. In making decisions, it is important to rank the fuzzy numbers. Since fuzzy numbers in a fuzzy environment often measure alternatives, a comparison of these fuzzy numbers is, in fact, a comparison of alternatives. There are a lot of different types of methods for ranking fuzzy numbers that exist in the literature. Still, there is no single method superior to all others regarding discrimination and consistency. This paper proposes a method for ranking fuzzy numbers with a unified integral value that multiplies two discriminatory components, the mode area integral and a linear sum of the absolute values of the integrals of the left and the right limits of alpha-cut of the normalized form of a fuzzy number. The method can rank two or more fuzzy numbers simultaneously, regardless of their linear or nonlinear membership functions. Furthermore, the unified integral value consistently ranks fuzzy numbers and their images and symmetric fuzzy numbers with the same altitude. Various types of fuzzy numbers are used in examples for comparative studies and investigations.

Authors: Thakar B. , Agarwal A. , Rawal R. M.
Published: June 2022

As per world health organization (WHO) report in 2020 about 2.3 million were diagnosed globally with breast cancer and around 6.85 lacs death occurs globally due to breast cancer. In such case usage of natural anticancer remedies can provide beneficial results, but unfortunately natural drugs are not being practically useful due to trifling bioavailability and unempirical data of effectiveness. In current study, liposomal gels were formulated by using liposomes entrapped with natural compound like seasamine, aloe-emodin, gallic acid, catechin, butein, 6-gingerol and curcumin as active drugs. Liposomal gels were formulated using carbopol (1.5 % w/w) with variable concentration of propylene glycol, in another formulation mixture 1 % w/w HPMC, 1 % w/w microcrystalline cellulose and 3 % w/w sodium alginate were also used. From characterization results of all of the above formulations, formulation with 1.5 % w/w carbopol and 5 % w/w propylene glycol has shown significant release of active drugs. In addition to this penetration effect of propylene glycol was also accessed for topical liposome gel formulation; the data reveals that propylene glycol has no significant penetration boosting impact with liposomal gel formulation.

Published: June 2022

The present work analyses sensor based classification and evaluation methods for the evaluation of churna. The churna is a powdered form of Siddha medicine. The churna is evaluated based on organoleptic and physicochemical parameters. The organoleptic parameters such as color and physicochemical parameters such as moisture content value and pH value are analysed in this work. The proposed methodology facilitates the development and integration of hardware and software modules for churna identification and classification. The proposed hardware setup comprises Raspberry pi camera, color sensor, moisture sensor and pH sensor interfaced with raspberry pi 3b.  Churnas are discriminated by classifying the color values using machine learning algorithms such as the Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Random Forest (RF) classifiers separately. The experimental results depict that the performance of the RF Classifier excels the SVM Classifier in churna name identification with greater accuracy, sensitivity and specificity.

Authors: Sultana Nasreen , Sultana Sharmin , Ahmed Fakhruddin , Ullah SK Ashraf
Published: June 2022

Background : Adolescence is particularly a transition period of human development which has profound influence on a person’s future. In Bangladesh adolescents usually gather their knowledge about reproductive health from their family and surroundings and therefore their knowledge remains incorrect and insufficient. Government increases the provision of schooling for girls but there is no provision of sex education.

Objective : To assess the knowledge of adolescent girls about pregnancy and antenatal care.

Methods : A cross sectional study was done during the period of January ’15 to June ’15 among 143 students of class 1X and X of 2 rural private schools of Rupganj and Narayanganj. Simple random sampling method was applied for enrolling the study population and data was collected by interview method using pretested questionnaire. Finally, data was analyzed by SPSS version 17.

Result : Most of the respondents had average knowledge about pregnancy and antenatal care. Nearly three-forth (61.5%) of the respondents had incorrect knowledge about pregnancy period and majority (76.3%) do not know about the correct mother’s organ for developing baby during pregnancy. Maximum respondents (95%) had good knowledge about extra care of a pregnant mother. Although 74.8% mentioned about TT vaccination of a pregnant mother but majority (65%) did not know detail about the vaccines’ dose and schedule. Statistically significant difference found in knowledge on pregnancy and antenatal care among married and unmarried girls. (P=<0.05)

Conclusion : Knowledge of adolescent girls about pregnancy and ANC was average in our rural area.
