Perceived role and scope of practice toward prescription of eye exercises among ophthalmologists and physiotherapists
Authors: Maddi Meghana V. , Shimpi Apurv P.
Published: July 2023

CONTEXT:

The role and scope of physiotherapy practice in ophthalmological conditions for prescription of eye exercises are poorly understood and explored in the literature. Understanding the conditions and prescription of eye exercises may help in developing ophthalmic physiotherapy as a new specialty.

AIM:

The aim of this study was to assess the perceived role and scope of practice of physiotherapists and ophthalmologists in prescribing eye exercises.

SUBJECTS AND METHODS:

A cross-sectional survey was conducted among practicing physiotherapists and ophthalmologists in an urban region. A self-made and validated electronic questionnaire was provided which included questions regarding assessment procedures, indications, and scope of prescription of eye exercises by both the professionals.

STATISTICAL ANALYSIS:

Descriptive analysis of the data obtained was performed.

RESULTS:

Of the 38 ophthalmologists and 47 physiotherapists who participated in the study, 34 (89.47%) ophthalmologists and 22 (46.80%) physiotherapists were active in prescribing eye exercises. Ophthalmologists contributed largely in the prescription of eye exercises for convergence insufficiency (58.82%), strabismus (50.00%), amblyopia (44.11%), computer vision syndrome (41.17%), and accommodation insufficiency (32.35%), whereas physiotherapists were mainly involved in prescribing eye exercises for conditions such as vestibular dysfunctions (81.81%), squint and eye strain (22.72% each). About 55.26% of ophthalmologists and 46.80% of physiotherapists showed a favorable response for the development of ophthalmic physiotherapy as a specialty branch.

CONCLUSION:

Eye exercises for ophthalmological or nonophthalmological conditions are largely prescribed currently by the ophthalmologists as compared to physiotherapists, who seem to have a lesser perceived role and application scope in this branch of medicine. The majority of practitioners from both fields favor the development of ophthalmic physiotherapy as a specialty.
Upper extremity strengthening for respiratory function as an adjunct to conventional physiotherapy in cerebral palsy spastic diplegia children
Authors: Bombatkar Rasika , Wasnik Sandhya
Published: July 2023

BACKGROUND:

Respiratory illness in cerebral palsy (CP) is a complex multifactorial disease process. Children with spastic diplegic CP show significantly lower respiratory functions than children with normal development. It is reported that weak chest muscles, limited rib cage mobility, and reduced voluntary breathing capabilities lead to reduction in respiratory function in children with CP spastic diplegia. Thus, strategies to improve pulmonary function are required for a better physical performance in children with CP.

AIM:

The aim is to o assess the effect of upper extremity strengthening exercises (UESE) with resistance bands as an adjunct to conventional physiotherapy on respiratory function in children with CP spastic diplegia aged 6–10 years.

METHODS:

A total of 28 subjects with CP spastic diplegia Gross Motor Functional Classification System levels II and III, aged 6–10 years, were included in the study. The experimental group participants performed UESE along with conventional physiotherapy.

RESULTS:

Post 4-week intervention phase, experimental group had 68.96% improvement if peak expiratory flow (3.43 L/min vs. 2.03 L/min), 44.44% improvement in forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) (1.57 L vs. 1.11 L), and 50.89% improvement in forced vital capacity (FVC) (1.69 L vs. 1.12 L) as compared to the control group. The experimental group had a reduction in FEV1/FVC ratio from 100% to 95% in the postintervention phase.

CONCLUSION:

UESE with the resistance band, in addition to conventional physiotherapy, led to an improvement in pulmonary function tests as compared to conventional physiotherapy alone. Upper extremity strengthening should be included in routine chest physiotherapy protocols for children with spastic diplegic CP.
Correlation between transverse abdominis muscle activity and dynamic balance
Authors: Krishna Harish S. , Samuel Sanjay Eapem , Dhungana Milan
Published: July 2023

CONTEXT:

Transverse Abdominis (TrA) is one of the main core stabilizing muscles of the lumbar spine and also being one of the significant components of the core; it is important to understand to what extent the single muscle of the core contributes to the dynamic balance.

AIMS:

This study aims to find the correlation between transverse abdominis muscle activity and dynamic balance.

SETTING AND DESIGN:

This was an analytical correlation study conducted in a tertiary care hospital in Mangaluru.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

A total of 32 healthy males between the age of 18 and 30 years were included in the study. Transverse abdominis muscle activity was measured with a pressure biofeedback unit during abdominal tuck-in in a prone position and quantified in mmHg. Dynamic balance was measured with the Lower Quarter Y-Balance Test (LQYBT).

STATISTICAL ANALYSIS:

The collected data of transverse abdominis muscle activity and Lower Quarter Y-Balance was summarized using mean and standard deviation. Shapiro-Wilk test was done to test the normality of data and Spearman's rho correlation coefficient was used to find the correlation between transverse abdominis muscle activity and dynamic balance.

RESULTS:

The Spearman's correlation between the pressure difference component of TrA activity and the component of dynamic balance (LQYBT, anterior, posterolateral, and posteromedial) showed a moderately significant positive correlation (P < 0.05). The Spearman's correlation between hold time (Component of TrA activity) and LQYBT showed a moderately significant positive correlation (P < 0.05). Spearman's rho correlation between two components of dynamic balance (anterior, posteromedial) and hold time showed a fair positive correlation which was statistically not significant (P > 0.05). However, there was a moderate positive correlation between hold time and a posterolateral component of dynamic balance (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSION:

Participants who showed strong transverse abdominis muscle activity had excellent dynamic balance.

Published: July 2023

Purpose Alectinib and brigatinib are second-generation anaplastic lymphoma receptor tyrosine kinases (ALKs) that are widely used as first-line therapy for treating ALK-positive advanced non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Given the lack of a head-to-head comparison of these drugs as first-line therapies, this retrospective observational study aimed to compare the real-world efficacy and safety of alectinib and brigatinib.Materials and Methods Patients who received alectinib or brigatinib as the first-line treatment for ALK-positive advanced NSCLC were evaluated for clinical outcomes of objective response rate (ORR), intracranial ORR, time to next treatment (TTNT), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety profiles.Results Of 208 patients who received either alectinib or brigatinib as a first-line treatment, 176 received alectinib and 32 received brigatinib. At the data cutoff point, the median follow-up duration was 16.5 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 14.7 to 18.3) in the brigatinib group and 27.5 months (95% CI, 24.6 to 30.4) in the alectinib group. The ORR was 92.5% with alectinib and 93.8% for brigatinib. The intracranial ORR rates were 92.7% (38/41) and 100% (10/10), respectively. The rate of PFS at 12 months was comparable between the alectinib group and the brigatinib groups (84.4% vs. 84.1%, p=0.64), and the median TTNT, PFS, and OS were not reached in either group. Treatment-related adverse events were usually mild, and treatment discontinuation due to adverse events was rare (alectinib 4.5% vs. brigatinib 6.25%).Conclusion Alectinib and brigatinib had similar clinical benefits when used as the first-line treatment of NSCLC patients with ALK rearrangement in the real world.
Yesu’ah in the Old Testament: A Break to the Jinx of Pandemic in Nigeria
Authors: Bello Oluwaniyi Samuel
Published: July 2023

The paper examined yesu’ah (Yeshua) in the Old Testament and the notion of a break to the curse of pandemic in Nigeria. The Hebrew word yesu’ah means; victory, relief, solution, salvation or freedom from physical challenges such as drought, famine, sickness, bondage, illness, epidemics or pandemics etc. The concept of the latest pandemic (Covid-19) has created timidity in the minds of people in Nigeria since December 2019 up to date. The major problem is that no one has ever known the actual cause and the actual medicine required to curb the spread of the deadly virus which plagues society. However, just like how the Israelites overcame their challenges, this paper which adopted a critique method reveals that Nigerian tribal societies (Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa) possess their traditional method of obtaining suitable solutions to their challenges which are very much synonymous with those of the Hebrews in the Old Testament period. But in an attempt to secure relief for their physical challenges, the people jettisoned and supplemented their traditional ways of solving problems for scientific ‘proof’. It is noteworthy that the influence of civilization has become significant on the Yoruba culture. In the light of the above, the paper concludes that to obtain proper relief from the syndrome of pandemics, there must be proper discipline and morality, transparency, diligence, honesty and a total positive revolution in the way that people live. Besides this aspect, the paper elucidates that the people should re-examine their traditional methods of seeking God’s face for deliverance.
Apostolicity II: How does divine apostolicity affect God’s interaction with the world and humanity?
Authors: Henderson Erwin Samuel
Published: July 2023

Investigating the research question of how divine apostolicity affects God’s interaction with the world and humanity, predicates apostolicity as being a divine attribute. The logical extension therefore necessitates consideration of the apostolic attribute as an ontological, Trinitarian and operational characteristic demonstrated in the divine-human inter-relationship. Knowledge was drawn from relevant and authoritative sources: Ancient Near Eastern, Israelite, biblical, Hellenistic, reformation and contemporary theological and scientific. They were examined to accurately articulate diverse academic views, to provide critical appraisal of historical, theological and scientific investigation and theoretical frameworks, axiomatic for current and future research. The research method was of necessity an ontological consideration of the nature of God as a transcendent-immanent and relational reality. Epistemological analysis examines the multiple and developing theories of causation, of divine providence determinist
or necessitarian, indeterminist or contingent, or an open participatory view of natural order. Philosophical, theological and scientific paradigms expose the founding theoretical principles confronting positivist-determinist and post-positivist-contingent views, thereafter enabling the proposition of an apostolic paradigm. (Cohen et al., 2018: 3, 5-6, 10, 14, 16, 18, 28, 34). The apostolic paradigm articulates a dynamic relationship to the world and humanity with particular attention to New Testament incarnational Christological and pneumatological parameters that postulate a paradigm change and subsequent rereading of the worldview through apostolic dynamic phases. Herein lies the contribution to the existing body of knowledge and contemporary biblical worldview developments in this field.
Egresados y Graduados de Posgrado

Published: July 2023

La meritocracia influye en el mercado laboral y los jóvenes profesionales realizan estudios de posgrado para tener mejores oportunidades. Sin embargo, al término de los estudios la mayoría queda como egresado porque el principal obstáculo que enfrentaron fueron los cursos de tesis cuyo objetivo es que se logre desarrollar y ejecutar la tesis. Otro problema que se presenta es que se eligen maestrías que no corresponden a la profesión del maestrante y es de gran preocupación la formación de doctores en educación de profesionales ajenos al del profesor o licenciado en educación. Finalmente, la ética profesional de quienes asumen el dictado de los cursos de Tesis en las escuelas de posgrado es dejado en segundo plano por la oportunidad laboral.

La otra revolución de octubre: subjetivación política y trabajo sexual en Quito
Authors: Panchi Jima Marco Giovanny
Published: July 2023

Este libro de Marco Panchi es una aportación relevante al tema, por demás controvertido, del trabajo sexual. A la rigurosa investigación de campo del autor se suma el cuidado con el cual ha registrado la voz de las líderes de las trabajadoras sexuales. Cuando leí el manuscrito anónimo, con el objetivo de hacer un dictamen, no detecté que estaba escrito por un hombre pues evita toda condescendencia paternalista y transmite con una clara solidaridad los dilemas y las vivencias que expresan las trabajadoras sexuales. Además de que es un trabajo de investigación y reflexión notable, también es una herramienta importante en la lucha por desmitificar el trabajo sexual.

Mass, compulsory and free primary education is one of the most important achievements of civilization, which is recognized in a whole series of international treaties on human rights. In this sense, the minimum core obligations of states is to provide every child with access to primary education within the framework of the right to education, as an expression of formal education and a key segment of the child's right to education in general. On the other hand, the parents or guardians of the child have the duty to educate the child. Parents are granted the autonomy to do so in accordance with their religious and moral convictions if they do not violate the rights of the child and the aims of education proclaimed in international human rights treaties. In this context, parents have the obligation to make primary education available to their children, while retaining the right to choose a public or appropriate private primary school in accordance with the law. In an effort to enable the application of the best interests of the child to each specific child, the legislation of Serbia in the domain of primary education also recognizes forms of schooling at home or at a distance, but only if the child has previously been enrolled in primary school. Parents cannot refuse to enroll a child in primary school, although the sanctions provided for such behavior are ineffective. In this way, parents could not decide to take over exclusively the provision of primary education services to the child, referring to their religious or philosophical convictions. In such cases, the Family Law of Serbia can offer a more adequate approach to solving the problem in the form of measures of corrective supervision over the exercise of parental rights and, ultimately, court decisions on protecting the child's right to education or depriving the parents of their duty to educate the child.

On March 2, 2020, Indonesia experienced first case of Covid 19. As a result, investors should be careful in investing so that investors choose gold in investing. Purpose of this study is analyze impact of Covid-19 on gold price in Indonesia. Research method uses ARIMA intervention. The results showed that the impact of Covid-19 on gold price in Indonesia is gradual temporary, meaning the intervention to influence the movement of gold price gradually and temporarily. Intervention of Covid-19 cases against gold price in Indonesia began to be felt after two weeks of the first case of Covid-19 in Indonesia which demonstrated by the increase in the gold price out of ordinary since the 16th day. On the 19th day after intervention, the gold price in Indonesia decreased. Furthermore,  the gold price in Indonesia is again rising and expected to increase. The forecast results of the next 31 days show gold price in Indonesia has always increased. When Covid-19 has not been able to be resolved so that the confirmed positive case of Covid-19 continues to increase, gold investment is one of the safe investments. However, investors should pay attention to gold price movements if they want to invest in gold.

The Use of Sphinkeeper® In Faecal Incontinence
Authors: CC Kearsey
Published: July 2023

Introduction: Faecal Incontinence is a condition that can affect up to 20% of population during their lifetime with female predominance. Sacral Nerve Stimulation (SNS) has been recently shown to have significant benefits in mainly urge incontinence but this has left a large group of patients with passive incontinence without effective management options. The SphinKeeper® (SK) allows treatment of more sizeable defects in the internal or external anal sphincter. Preliminary series have shown some benefit of the procedure in treatment of faecal incontinence.

Methods: A single-centre retrospective observational study of SphinKeeper® prostheses was conducted at St Helens and Knowsley NHS trust and we believe this to be one of the largest series of SphinKeeper® in the UK. SphinKeeper® restores sphincter function by using placement of self-expanding prostheses into the inter-sphincteric space. The operation involves implantation of 10 self-expanding sterile prostheses between the internal and the external sphincter, thus creating a third ring around the circumference of the anal canal.

Results: Most patients were ASA 2 (n=10). 43% (6/14) patients had previous colorectal surgery – THD and mucopexy (n=3), anorectal fistula surgery (n=1), anterior resection of rectum (n=1) and pelvic floor repair (n=1). EUS was carried out in 6 patients and in all 6 cases identified internal or external anal sphincter defect (IAS n=1, EAS n=3, IAS and EAS n=2). No patient sustained intraoperative complications. 2 patients reattended within 48 hours post op due to severe post-operative pain and were discharged with analgesia. Subjective results were evaluated using Vaizey and Wexner scores and showed significant improvement 4/14 patients, partial improvement in 7/14 patients and no improvement in 3/14 patients.

Discussion: Our study evaluated the short-term outcomes of the procedure in 14 patients who had SphinKeeper® surgery between May 2017 and August 2020. Patients who took part in our study had previous treatment for faecal incontinence by a variety of methods (both medical and surgical) and suffered from different types of FI (passive, urge, mixed, associated urinary incontinence). It was promising to see there was a clinically significant improvement in continence indicated by a decrease in Vaizey and Wexner scores (p=0.00377 and p=0.00334 respectively (Wilcoxon test)) with 11 patients improving in scores. It is reasonable to consider Sphinkeeper™ as a safe and minimally invasive surgical intervention to achieve some degree of positive improvement for patients suffering from faecal incontinence.

Introduction: Type 2 diabetes millitus causes a heavy burden on individuals, their families and the community because it affects quality of life and requires long-term and comprehensive health care. Self-care knowledge is an important factor influencing patients' self-care behavior to reduce the impact and progression of the diabetes mellitus. Objectives: The study was conducted to find out some factors related to self-care knowledge of patients with type 2 diabetes in Thai Nguyen province tool such as the 30-item Diabetes Self-care Knowledge (DSCK-30). Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study, using the toolkit to assess the 30-item Diabetes Self-care Knowledge (DSCK-30) of patients with diabetes mellitus, was conducted on 408 2TDM patients at Thai Nguyen National Hospital. Results: Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus had good self-care knowledge; the mean total score of knowledge was 21.20 ± 5.25 out of 30 scores. Self-care knowledge scores ranged from 7 to 30. The percentage of patients with self-care knowledge was still low, accounting for 53.9%. Educational qualification (t-test = -6,522; p = 0.000) and income (t-test = -2.32; p = 0.009) were related to self-care knowledge of patients with diabetes mellitus Conclusion: It is necessary to have a program of counseling and education on self-care knowledge for people with diabetes mellitus (drug compliance, diet, physical activity, blood glucose monitoring, prevention of complications and other essential self-care knowledge) for patients to raise awareness, thereby changing self-care behaviors to help patients control blood glucose level well, prevent complications and improve quality of life.
O ministério da polêmica: humor, representações sociais e a gestão da Saúde durante a pandemia
Authors:   , Barros Camila Cardoso
Published: July 2023

No contexto brasileiro, os impactos da Covid-19 não se restringiram ao âmbito da saúde pública, tendo, assim, reflexos negativos nos aspectos econômicos, sociais e, principalmente, políticos. Nesse sentido, o Ministério da Saúde, órgão em evidência em crises sanitárias, viu- se instaurado em meio a uma instabilidade de gestores: ao longo da pandemia, considerando-se 2020 e 2022, o comando foi alterado por quatro vezes, tendo como ministros Luiz Henrique Mandetta, Nelson Teich, Eduardo Pazuello e Marcelo Queiroga. Diante desse contexto, objetivamos, neste trabalho, analisar discursivamente as estratégias mobilizadas em charges para a representação do ministro da saúde durante a pandemia no Brasil. Assim, para o corpus, foram selecionadas 30 charges, a partir de pesquisa na plataforma Google, com a busca “charge + nome do ministro da saúde”, publicadas em mídias on-line, de abril de 2020 até fevereiro de 2022. Dentre essas, cerca de 5 charges são referentes a cada período de comando, além de 6 que fazem alusão aos períodos de troca e à situação do Ministério de maneira geral. No que concerne ao arcabouço teórico-metodológico, utilizamos, primordialmente, a Teoria Semiolinguística (TS) de Patrick Charaudeau, considerando-se a sua pertinência e aplicabilidade em referência ao estudo. Assim, percebemos que a análise das charges foi uma tarefa complexa que demanda a utilização de diferentes quadros da TS e que os resultados indicaram que a representação do ministro da saúde do período pandêmico consistiu em um gestor circunscrito por silenciamento, apatia e submissão, em um contexto predominantemente marcado por negacionismo, omissão e passividade, visto que em todas as charges que aparecem interlocução direta entre ex-ministros e ex-presidente, os antigos comandantes da Saúde não possuem fala. Palavras-chave: Análise do discurso. Teoria Semiolinguística. Covid-19. Charges.

The present study utilized computational-guided experiments to conduct screening of a novel discovered acidic-thermostable α-amylase (AMYT) derived from a metagenome of hot springs. This approach was employed as a cost-effective alternative to the conventional method of functional screening. Initially, a computational screening methodology was employed to identify primary candidate that possess superior properties. AMYT was subjected to cloning, expression, purification, and characterization, among the candidates that were chosen. The AMYT enzyme demonstrated optimal activity at pH of 5.5 and a temperature of 50 °C. The enzyme demonstrated high efficacy in the presence of diverse chemicals, demonstrating a remarkable capacity in the hydrolysis of a wide range of substrates. Furthermore, it was found to be independent of Ca2+ ions.

Traditional Indian Medicine Improves Clinical Outcome in Non-alcoholic fatty Liver diseases - A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Authors: Chaudhary Piyush , Rathi Bharat , Lamba Neha , Sharma Anil , Rathi Renu
Published: July 2023

Background: Non- Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is a rapidly emerging liver disease linked strongly to metabolic syndrome. In the absence of specific pharmacological agents for the effective treatment of NAFLD, current treatment mainly focuses on lifestyle and dietary modifications. Several agents referenced in Ayurvedic texts have shown promising effects in patients over centuries of use. But the outcomes reported by various randomized clinical trials (RCTs) for the efficacy of herbs in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are conflicting. Objective: This study aims to systematically review and conduct meta-analysis of the available evidence to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Ayurveda-referenced drugs.  Methodology: The electronic databases PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane library, and ARP were searched up to May 2022 to identify relevant studies. Quality of studies was evaluated using modified Jadad Scale. Risk of bias was assessed using Cochrane risk of bias tool. Result: The search retrieved 1352 studies, but only 18 studies were finally evaluated. Statistical analysis showed significant reduction in grades of fatty liver (RR: 2.42, 95% CI; 1.52, 3.86), AST (SMD: -0.91, 95% CI; -1.04, 0.08;) and ALT (SMD = − 0.91; 95% CI; − 1.53, − 0.28; P < 0.00001). Conclusion: Ayurveda drugs have shown positive results in managing NAFLD, as evidenced by the limited available data. More quality-based RCT’s using standardized Ayurveda drugs with large sample sizes and taking histological outcomes into consideration must be conducted to generate stronger evidence.
