Scope of Homoeopathy in Peritonsillar Abscess
Authors: D’souza Rosario Pascoal , Kachare Sandesh Anandrao
Published: September 2022

A Peritonsillar abscess is also known as Quinsy. It  is an accumulation of pus behind the palatine tonsil  due to an infection. Precisely, it is a collection of pus  between the fibrous capsule of the tonsil, usually at  the upper pole & the superior constrictor muscles of  pharynx. The signs & symptoms of quinsy include  fever, throat pain, trouble in opening mouth, redness,  swelling and change in the voice. Pain is usually  worse on one side. The complications may include  blockage of the airway or aspiration pneumonitis.  The conventional treatment is done for removing the  pus by incision & drainage along with medications  for swelling & pain management. The homeopathic  line of treatment depends on the actual state of the  condition. Homeopathic medicines can be used  in mild to moderate cases of peritonsillar abscess  successfully as see through this research study. In  this study, 46 cases of peritonsillar abscess of age  group between 5 to 80 years were included. After  going through the results, it is observed that the  peritonsillar abscess can be treated successfully by  Homoeopathy. The scope of Homoeopathy in the  treatment of peritonsillar abscess is excellent and  shows high success rate of 44 out of 46 patients  responding successfully to the Homoeopathic  treatment with no signs of recurrence in near future.  The outstanding Homoeopathic remedies in the  treatment of peritonsillar abscess were found to  be mostly Hepar Sulph & Merc Sol along with  Calc Carb, Baryta Carb and Phytolacca. All that is  required in the treatment of peritonsillar abscess is  quick selection of right remedy and right dose for  the instant relief rationally. Hence we can rightly  claim that by proper Homoeopathic treatment we  can make the world better for the future generation.  This research paper will certainly help the health  professionals to overcome such problems of surgical  cases and consider the benefits of the facts in scope  of Homoeopathy in peritonsillar abscess.
Gastro Intestinal Disorders and Homoeopathy - A Retrospective Study
Authors: Sitharthan R.
Published: September 2022

Introduction: Gastro intestinal diseases are the  most common disorders seen worldwide. Microbiota  is a term used for eukaryotic and prokaryotic  microorganisms. In case of infected persons, it  can produce symptoms like diarrhea, vomiting,  nausea, flatulency, pain abdomen, inflammation of  intestine, etc. The most common presentations of  Gastro intestinal disorders are heart burn, nausea and  vomiting, dysphagia, indigestion, chronic recurrent  pain abdomen, flatulency, belching, loss of weight,  etc. Homoeopathy is a system where symptom  similiarity and individualization is considered in  remedy selection.The vulnerability and frequency  of disease will decrease when medicine prescribed  is based on individualization. This is a retrospective  study analyzing the previous case history to assess  the efficacy of homoeopathy in gastrointestinal  disorders. 

Materials and Methods: Case records of 261  patients diagnosed with gastrointestinal disorders  with symptoms like pain abdomen, nausea, vomiting,  heart burn, flatulence, diarrhea, bleeding per rectum,  dysuria, hesitancy in urine etc. who had visited OPD  of NHRIMH Kottayam Kerala from January 2022  to May 2022 (5 months) had been retrospectively  analyzed to find out the most common gastrointestinal  disorders and frequently indicated useful remedies in  managing the patient.  

Results and Discussion 

It has been found that in our study maximum affection  is in the age group of 51-60 and least in the age group  of 91-100. Females were most affected than males.  45 new patients and 216 old patients had visited. The  most common gastro intestinal disorders for which patients visited were Cholelithiasis, Gastritis and  GERD.Most frequently indicated medicines were Nux  vomica (20.69%), Sulphur (16.48%), Bryonia  (9.96%), Argentum nitricum (9.58%) and  Lycopodium (9.20%).The study showed drastic improvement in all the  patients which proves that homoeopathy is highly  effectivein gastrointestinal disorders.  

Conclusion 

From the above retrospective study, it is clear that  when the homoeopathic principles were followed  properly in treating a patient we can arrive at a  permanent cure in all patients without any side  effects.
Effectiveness of Homoeopathic Treatment in Haemorrhoids- An Observational Study
Authors: Karthikeyan D.
Published: September 2022

Background & objectives 

Haemorrhoids are certainly one of the commonest  ailments that afflict mankind. Bleeding and prolapse  are the cardinal symptoms of haemorrhoids. Pain,  mucus discharge and Itching, are the other most  common complaints from the patients. This leads to  reduced work efficiency, quality of life and increased  financial burden on the patients. Homoeopathy is  reported to have a significant role in haemorrhoids in  both classical literature and recent studies. However,  its efficacy in the South Indian population has not yet  been reported. Thus, an effort has been made to find  out the effectiveness of Homoeopathic treatment in  haemorrhoids.  

Methods 

In this prospective, observational study, conducted  at Fr. Muller's Homoeopathic Medical College and  Hospital, Mangalore during the year 2002-2003, on  patients of age groups between 20-75 years, based  on their clinical presentation such as bleeding, pain,  discharge, itching and examination. They were  treated with homoeopathic medicines, using disease  intensity scores as a parameter. This study protocol  was approved by the Institutional ethical committee  of Fr. Muller's Homoeopathic Medical College and  Hospital, Mangalore and consent was obtained from  the participants. All the patients were followed for a  minimum period of 3 months.  

Results and Discussion 

A total of 30 patients were enrolled and analyzed  for the study. After treatment significant change  is found in bleeding, pain, pruritus ani, and mucus  discharge per rectum of the patients. However, no  change is found in Prolapse. Symptoms were graded ranging from 0-3 depending upon the severity of the  complaint. The sum of these grades were considered  before and after treatment for the patients. Most  frequently used medicines were Sulphur (n = 6),  Lycopodium (n = 5), Natrum mur (n = 4), Pulsatilla (n = 3) and Nux vomica (n = 3). The Statistical  analysis ‘t-test’ showed, that the calculated value  of 13.7 is greater than the tabled value of ‘t’ at the  5% level with 29 df (2.045). This shows the positive  effect of homoeopathic medicines in the treatment of  haemorrhoids.  

Conclusion 

It is concluded that homoeopathic treatment is  effective in haemorrhoids, which is reflected in  significant reduction in symptoms of haemorrhoids,  as observed with the disease intensity score.
Revisando a economia política do conhecimento: o lugar do colonialismo na atividade acadêmica
Authors: Candido da Silva Lau Nycolas
Published: September 2022

Os debates da economia política sobre o papel da ciência no sistema capitalista têm sido cruciais em centralizar as universidades como instituições imbricadas nas dinâmicas de poder da política internacional e global. Entretanto, como a parte da leitura crítica das Relações Internacionais (RI) tem demonstrado, o colonialismo é um fator fundamental na consolidação das universidades como polos de poder; ainda que este seja sido um elemento pouco debatido na análise convencional da economia política sobre os processos do conhecimento acadêmico. Considerando este cenário teórico, o presente artigo propõe uma revisão bibliográfica do conceito de economia política do conhecimento, na tentativa de analisar os processos acadêmicos ligados ao avanço da dinâmica capitalista. Esta revisão explora, porém, o potencial analítico deste conceito ao abarcar o papel do colonialismo na composição da atividade científica. O argumento central a ser explorado é de que, sem dar conta do colonialismo, a economia política do conhecimento acaba concebendo o compromisso das universidades com o bem público como natural e ontológico, o que oblitera a análise dos processos de exclusão e violência que são mantidos pela articulação das universidades ao processo produtivo, porém operacionalizados, mais precisamente, pela via do mercado. Por isso, o artigo propõe, ainda uma rearticulação do conceito de economia política do conhecimento baseado nas reflexões de Rivera Cusicanqui sobre a operação do colonialismo pelas instituições acadêmicas.
De una 'universidad mejor' a una 'universidad nacional': los orígenes de la Universidad Nacional de La Patagonia en 1974, entre lo global y lo local
Authors: Carrizo Gabriel
Published: September 2022

El artículo está dedicado al análisis de las condiciones sócio históricas que intervinieron en la creación de la Universidad Nacional de la Patagonia en 1974. El objetivo que perseguimos com este trabajo es contribuir al conocimiento de la expansión del sistema universitário argentino desde un estúdio local, a partir del análisis de fuentes históricas tales como la prensa del período, entrevista a un informante clave, y documentación de archivos universitários. La hipótesis que guia esta investigación indica que el origen de uma Universidad Nacional en la Patagonia en 1974, se debió a múltiples factores. Además de las demandas del movimento estudiantil referidas a la instalación de uma universidad estatal, y la expansión del sistema universitário promovido por el general Alejandro Lanusse en la etapa final de la denominada Revolución Argentina, deben sumarse las transformaciones sócio políticas a nível nacional en la década del ’70 (en particular, el acercamiento entre el peronismo y los sectores médios universitários), los câmbios que acontecieron en el sistema de educación superior a escala global, y elclima ideológico – cultural mundial de fines de la década del ‘60.
Memoria de los márgenes: trayectorias de mujeres de Baja California desde la militancia político-estudiantil al feminismo, en las decadas de 1960 y 1970
Authors: Musotti Sara , García Niño Deise Lisbeth
Published: September 2022

Este artículo tiene el objetivo de analizar la trayectoria de un grupo de mujeres que realizaron sus actividades políticas en Baja California, tierra lejana geográficamente del resto de América Latina, pero próxima a las ciudades californianas donde estallaron las protestas de 1968 y. gradualmente se expandieron a otras partes del mundo. Desde esta región fronteriza, las mujeres se formaron en universidades públicas locales o de otras partes del País, donde se involucraron en movimientos estudiantiles y grupos marxistas, entrando a formar parte de la generación política de los sesenta globales primero y del neofeminismo, en la década de 1970. Los paradigmas marxistas, la legalización del aborto y la liberación sexual fueron las reivindicaciones que compartieron con las mujeres latinoamericanas y norteamericanas con las que se conectaron en redes que reforzaron su formación y actividades políticas.

Southern Cone Student Movements and Capitalist Development in The Late 1800s and Early 1900s: A "New Social Movement Theory" Approach
Authors: Palacios-Valladares Indira
Published: September 2022

This paper explores the “new social movement” features of the Argentinean, Chilean, and Uruguayan student movements of the late 1800s and early 1900s. In doing so, it wrestles with two questions. First, why do such features, widely associated with post-industrial societies, appear at this relatively early stage of capitalist development? Second, what does their presence at that time suggest about the explanatory power of new social movement theory? The paper agrees with new social movement theorists’ contention that capitalism shapes the character of social movements but argues that the focus of the analysis should not be on development stages but rather on the impact of rapid global market integration processes, which have occurred at different times since the rise of capitalism. Such an approach illuminates why capitalist development may yield similar collective action patterns across different historical periods.

Entre a retórica do cuidado e a burocracia esportiva
Authors: Machado Vieira Talita , Sterza Justo José , Lemos de Souza Leonardo
Published: September 2022

Neste ensaio, discutimos a participação de pessoas trans no esporte de alto rendimento. Nos serviremos de um caso divulgado na mídia, consistindo em material de domínio público, como fio condutor da discussão. O discurso psicobiomédico, assentado no pressuposto de unidade do sujeito e organizado numa matriz cis-heteronormativa binária, contribui para produzir e operar a noção de coerência na classificação dos corpos. No esporte, um de seus efeitos se apresenta na objeção à participação de atletas trans nas arenas esportivas, recorrendo a critérios biofisiológicos que consideram os hormônios andrógenos determinantes para o aumento do desempenho. Argumento que pode ser questionado ao olharmos para casos de crianças trans impossibilitadas ou dificultadas de participar do esporte. Aqui, os hormônios cedem lugar ao aparelho jurídico-institucional para fazer funcionar a burocracia esportiva e seu controle sobre os corpos. Ao expor os limites deste argumento, encontramos as razões biopolíticas que atravessam a gestão dos corpos.

Published: September 2022

The presence of human papillomavirus (HPV) in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) can guide medical management. The aim of this study was to highlight the importance of HPV diagnosis, verifying which diagnostic techniques are most used in identifying HPV and the differences between these techniques, in the research aimed at establishing a consensus on the gold standard method. We verify that HPV infection is associated with the development of HNSCC. The techniques most commonly used for diagnosis of HPV are immunohistochemistry (IHC), polymerase chain reaction (PCR), reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and in situ hybridization (ISH). Our study concludes that detection of E6/E7 DNA by PCR is the most accepted method of diagnosis. The standardization of an accurate HPV diagnostic method can reduce morbidity and mortality in HNSCC, especially in emerging countries, where few screenings are performed, in addition to improving the social and economic impact of the disease.

Authors:   , Abbu Allan Robert
Published: September 2022

Consumer attitudes play an important role when it comes to waste management. Consumers, who purchase any number of packaged goods also dispose of or discard waste in large quantities. In the business sector the introduction of new technologies in the production cycle is imperative, and this technology involves discovering more cost effective methods of reducing and reusing solid waste as a resource. The challenge for the eThekwini Municipality is to discover ways to reduce the volume of waste disposed at the landfills. This study determines the attitudes of consumers towards curbside recycling specifically within the eThekwini municipal region. This study focuses on various theories and evaluates ways in which waste prevention and reduction initiatives can be employed to protect the depletion of natural resources.

Factors that influence the adoption of internet banking by South Africans in the eThekweni metropolitan region
Authors:   , Wu Jun
Published: September 2022

Information technology is fundamentally changing the banking industry worldwide. The advent of internet banking offers banking firms a new frontier of opportunities and challenges. An understanding of how demographic characteristics, social factors, and consumer perceptions and attitudes towards internet banking influence the adoption of internet banking can allow banks to create solutions and plans to attract consumers to their internet banking services, thus enabling them to gain a greater share in the banking market. In South Africa little is known and understood about the emergence of internet banking even though this is now beginning to represent an important share of the banking market. This is because internet banking is a new industry here, and so consumer acceptance and use of internet banking is still limited. To date very little research has been conducted into factors which influence consumer adoption of internet banking, and so therefore there is a need for a study such as this. This study investigates attitudes of retail banking customers in South Africa, specifically in the Ethekweni metropolitan region, towards the adoption of internet banking.

Published: September 2022

Background. Evidence-based information on genetic sensorineural hearing loss in Latin America is limited, hindering the advancement of related clinical practice and the development of relevant healthcare policies in the field. This study describes sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of a group of Chilean participants with congenital, childhood, progressive or late-onset sensorineural hearing loss of unknown etiology; all non-genetic causes of hearing loss were excluded. Methods. A quantitative study, with a non-experimental, observational, cross-sectional design and a descriptive scope. From 978 patients diagnosed with SNHL, 286 subjects fulfilled the inclusion criteria, and 138 patients accepted to participate. Results. The most frequent audiological-profile was symmetrical-bilateral-profound-SNHL with a sloping pattern. The median age at audiological diagnosis was 24.5 months (IQR:12-53) and at first-time Hearing-Assistive-Device-use (HAD-use) was 30 months (IQR:13-69). 71% of HAD were financed by public resources. Conclusion. The age at audiological diagnosis in SNHL of suspected genetic causes is still far from international standards. These results are valuable for public health research and policy development, not only for the Chilean population, but also for other Hispanic communities and other middle-high income countries.

Pola konsumsi merupakan susunan jenis dan jumlah makanan yang dikonsumsi oleh seseorang atau kelompok orang pada waktu tertentu. Tingkat pengetahuan memegang peranan penting dalam pola konsumsi masyarakat. Faktor lain seperti yang dikatakan oleh Desi dkk. (2018) bahwa besar uang saku yang dimiliki anak sekolah menentukan daya beli terhadap makanan selama anak tersebut berada di luar rumah. Semakin tinggi jumlah uang saku yang didapatkan, semakin tinggi daya beli dalam membeli makanan jajanan. Jumlah uang saku yang lebih besar membuat anak sekolah sering mengonsumsi makanan jajanan yang mereka sukai tanpa menghiraukan kandungan gizinya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan faktor besar uang jajan dan pengetahuan siswa tentang gizi dengan pola konsumsi pangan siswa sekolah dasar Gereja Masehi Injili di Timor Oesapa Kecamatan Kelapa Lima, Kota Kupang pada bulan Juni 2020 dengan jumlah sampel 114 orang siswa umur 9-12 tahun (kelas 3-6 SD). Desain penelitian yang dipakai adalah cross sectional dengan menggunakan uji statistik chi-square untuk menganalisis hipotesis dengan menggunakan data yang terkumpul. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ada hubungan antara faktor besar uang jajan (0,009<0,05) dan faktor tingkat pengetahuan siswa tentang gizi (0,04<0,05) dengan pola konsumsi pangan mereka.

Kecelakaan kerja adalah kecelakaan berhubungan dengan hubungan kerja. Hubungan kerja disini dapat berarti bahwa kecelakaan terjadi dikarenakan oleh pekerjaan atau pada waktu melaksanakan pekerjaan. Maka dalam hal ini, dapat dua permasalahan penting yaitu, kecelakaan akibat pekerjaan itu atau kecelakaan terjadi pada saat pekerjaan sedang dilakukan. Kecelakaan merupakan suatu yang tidak diinginkan oleh semua orang, begitu juga halnya dalam melaksanakan pekerjaan. Kecelakaan disini dikelompokan kedalam, kecelakaan akibat kerja ditempat kerja, kecelakaan lalu lintas dan kecelakaan di rumah. Berdasarkan Peraturan Menteri Tenaga Kerja Nomor  04/Men/1993, tentang kecelakaan kerja, kecelakaan kerja adalah kecelakaan yang terjadi berhubungan dengan hubungan kerja, termasuk penyakit yang timbul karena hubungan kerja, demikian pula kecelakaan yang terjadi dalam perjalanan berangkat dari rumah menuju tempat kerja, dan pulang kerumah melalui jalan yang biasa atau wajar dilalui. Kecelakaan merupakan masalah yang terjadi pada saat melalukan pekerjaan atau penyakit yang timbul karena pekerjaan. Faktor penyebab kecelakaan kerja sendiri dapat dibagi menjadi tiga yaitu faktor lingkungan, faktor manusia dan faktor peralatan.  Welding merupakan pekerjaan pada industri logam yang mempunyai resiko fisik yang tinggi sehingga dalam pelaksanaannya membutuhkan keahlian dan peraltan khusus agar pekerja tidak mengalami kecelakaan kerja. Alat khusus yang dimaksud dalam hal ini adalah alat pelindung diri (APD). Penggunaan APD  juga dipengaruhi oleh faktor pengetahuan, sikap, dan kenyamanan pekerja itu sendiri terkait dengan APD yang mereka kenakan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis hubungan antara faktor predisposisi dan faktor pemungkin dengan kecelakaan kerja pada pekerja las listrik di Kota Kupang. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah survey analitik dengan desain Cross Sectional Study. Teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan teknik total sampling dengan jumlah sampel 71 responden. Hasil analisis menunjukan bahwa terdapat hubungan signifikan antara pengetahuan, sikap, kenyamanan dan ketersediaan sarana dan prasarana dengan kecelakaan kerja (p-value <0,05).
