Authors: Alhabdan A , Almogbel S , Alawaji R , Aldosari G
Published: August 2023

ABSTRACT

Objectives:

The objective was to assess the current knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of parents toward the use of Silver Diamine Fluoride in children’s primary teeth and identify related factors.

Materials and Methods:

In this cross-sectional study, data were collected from Parents of pediatric patients who had appointments at the King Saud University Pediatric Dentistry Clinic and several private clinics in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia from Jan to April 2021. A simple random sampling method was used. An electronic questionnaire was designed to collect data regarding participants’ demographics and their knowledge, attitude, and perception toward the use of SDF for their children.

Results:

A higher proportion of parents/relatives (87.3%) was strongly satisfied with the speed of treatment and its benefits. In terms of disadvantages, 23.8% and 30.4% of the parents/relatives were satisfied and dissatisfied, respectively (P < 0.05). Regarding attitudes, the majority of participants 22.8% responded as neutral to using SDF to treat their children’s anterior primary teeth (P < 0.05), whereas 32.2% agreed to the use of SDF in their children’s posterior primary teeth (P < 0.05). A higher proportion of parents/relatives who were in the age group of >50 years (27.8%) had responded as “satisfied” compared with the responses of other age groups (P < 0.05).

Conclusion:

The present study demonstrates that SDF is acceptable among Saudi parents/relatives to arrest dental caries. However, pigmentation of anterior teeth is a major concern.
Estimation of dose conversion factor of thoron progeny using ICRP 130 human respiratory tract model
Authors: Rout Rajeswari P. , Mishra Rosaline , Khan Arshad T. , Sapra B. K.
Published: August 2023

Thoron is an emerging field of study due to recent realization of its radiological significance. A code has been developed for determination of dose conversion factor (DCF) of thoron progeny based on the revised International Commission on Radiological Protection 130 human respiratory tract model. Using this code, DCF for an adult male doing light exercise with a breathing rate (BR) of 0.75 m3 h−1 was found to be 35.7 nSv h−1 per Bq m−3 which is very close to the UNSCEAR proposed value. If the BR increased to 1.2 m3 h−1 as considered in case of occupational workers, DCF increases by a factor of 1.5. Along with the BR, DCF was also observed to be largely dependent on the particle size of the thoron progeny.

Published: August 2023

Gamma spectrometry of the KAMINI reactor coolant lines at the selected spots/locations was carried out during 20kWt power and shutdown using portable spectrometers such as RIIDEye-X, RayMon (Cadmium Zinc Telluride), and hyper pure germanium. 133Xe (81 keV),85m Kr (150 keV), and 135Xe (250 keV) isotopes could be identified. The spectra results did not indicate the presence of internal contamination due to any corrosion activation products such as 56Mn, 59Fe, 60Co, and fission products. The gamma radiation level observed during reactor power on the selected locations is only due to the fission product noble gases (FPNGs) and their short-lived radionuclides 88Rb and 138Cs generated and not any pipeline internal contamination. 137Cs and trace quantities of 60Co were identified in the mixed bed regenerated liquid. The presence of 137Cs could be attributed due to the tramp fuel fissions.

Venezuela participa en eventos turísticos programados de relevancia mundial, siendo la efectividad ferial parte del proceso holístico de su planificación. A tal efecto, los objetivos de las ferias se alinean con objetivos de los planes nacionales institucionales y con los del plan de mercadeo institucional. La efectividad ferial del precitado proceso, ha sido poco tratado en la literatura científica, a pesar de estar contemplada la participación en ferias internacionales de turismo, en el Plan Nacional Estratégico de Turismo 2015-2019, como estrategias de mercadeo, con la intención tanto de incrementar el turismo receptivo, como el proyectar la imagen del país en el exterior. El artículo tiene como objetivo presentar la correlación entre la incidencia de los factores de las fases de la feria (pre-feria, feria y post-feria) y la efectividad en la participación de Venezuela en ferias internacionales de turismo, desde la perspectiva del sector privado de turismo. A partir de la premisa que las variables del constructo planificación ferial se relacionan con las variables del constructo efectividad ferial, se aplican estadísticos descriptivos y de correlación (r de Pearson), requiriendo dos cuestionarios en la escala de Likert, en cinco niveles: el primer instrumento, referido a la planificación, con asignación de 1 (ninguna incidencia) y 5 (muy alta incidencia), y el segundo instrumento, relativo a la efectividad, con escala de 1 (ninguna efectividad) y 5 ( muy alta efectividad). Los resultados indican que la asociación de las variables inherentes a las etapas de la planificación con las variables que indican efectividad en la participación, demuestra que, de las 31 variables de planificación, 26 están asociadas a la obtención de una participación exitosa, enunciadas en 14 variables de efectividad.

Authors: Acosta Javier Alejandro Ramirez , Gutierrez Eduardo Augusto Ordoñez
Published: August 2023

Cantrell Pentalogy is a rare congenital anomaly that affects the development of organs in the thorax and abdomen of a fetus, characterized by five primary defects: anterior abdominal wall defects, sternal defects, diaphragmatic defects, cardiac anomalies, and defects in other organs such as lungs, liver, kidneys, and central nervous system. It is named after the American physician Everett R. Cantrell, who first described the condition in 1958. Cantrell Pentalogy is an extremely rare and severe condition, often associated with high mortality rates due to respiratory and cardiac complications. Treatment typically involves early-life surgical repair; however, the prognosis remains guarded and depends on the severity of the defects and the presence of other associated anomalies. This case report presents the diagnosis of Cantrell Pentalogy in a female patient at birth and provides a 190-day follow-up of her condition.

Whoʼs the biggest fish in the pond? The story of bull sharks (Carcharhinus leucas) in an Australian golf course lake, with deliberations on this speciesʼ longevity in low salinity habitats
Authors: Gausmann Peter
Published: August 2023

This article addresses the history of a resident population of bull sharks (Carcharhinus leucas) in an isolated stagnant body of water in subtropical Australia. From 1996 to 2013, six bull sharks were landlocked in a golf course lake near Brisbane. The adjacent Logan and Albert rivers trapped sharks due to major floodings. When floodwaters receded, these sharks remained in the lake, which is normally isolated from the riverʼs main channel. While this event was extensively reported in the media and recieved much public attention, it has not been investigated in depth, yet it provides an opportunity for insights into the tolerance of bull sharks to low salinity habitats and euryhalinity in this species. Currently, information on the extent of the bull sharkʼs capability to endure low salinity conditions and its longevity in these environments is scarce. The case reported here provides information on the occurrence of bull sharks for 17 years, which represents the longest uninterrupted duration in a low salinity environment that ever has been recorded in this species. Bull sharks arrived first in the lake as juveniles but through time, they have reached maturity. This occurrence presents not just another ordinary bull shark record from a low salinity environment but instead a record of physiological and scientific importance. Therefore, details of the residency of C. leucas in an Australian golf course lake are reported here.

Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily H member 1 (KCNH1) missense mutation causing epileptic encephalopathy and autistic behaviour
Authors: Prem Chand  , Sulaiman Asna , Kirmani Salman
Published: August 2023

The phenotypically similar genetic diseases Zimmermann-Laband syndrome (ZLS) and Temple-Baraitser syndrome (TMBTS) cause neurodevelopmental problems. Mutations in the gene coding for potassium voltage-gated channel, primarily KCNH1, cause these symptoms. An uncommon mutation in KCNH1 (p.Arg357Trp) present on Exon 7, reported to replace arginine with tryptophan at codon 357 of the KCNH1 protein c.1069C>T, caused pharmacoresistant seizures and autistic behaviour in a 2.7-year-old boy. This mutation causes problems with protein modelling and has yet to be documented in any genetic databases around the world. This mutation was overlapped with GPHN gene, c.828+1G>A, in our patient, causing GPHN-related spectrum disorder (autosomal dominant) along with molybdenum cofactor deficiency (autosomal recessive) leading to a neuropsychiatric presentation including autistic behaviour, making diagnosis and management even more complicated.

Assessment workplace related factors affecting tolerance of ambiguity among trainee doctors
Authors: Inam Shazia , Masood Jawaid  , Rehan Ahmed Khan
Published: August 2023

Objective: To assess workplace factors influencing the tolerance of ambiguity among trainee doctors.
Methods: The sequential mixed-method study was conducted from June 2021 to February 2022 at the Fauji Foundation Hospital, Islamabad, Pakistan, and comprised postgraduate trainee doctors of either gender associated with various specialties. The baseline tolerance of ambiguity score was established using the Tolerance of Ambiguity in Medical Students and Doctors scale. A group of selected trainees was interviewed face-to-face to examine the workplace factors that they regarded as beneficial or detrimental to their tolerance of ambiguity. Quantitative data was analysed using SPSS 24 and thematic analysis was done for qualitative data.
Results: Of the 132 subjects, 59 (21.9%) were males and 73 (55.3%) were females. The overall mean age was 20.95±2.186 years. Of the total, 55(41.7%) subjects were in the first year of training, 28(21.2%) in the second year, 26(19.6%) in the third year, and 23(17.4%) in the fourth year. There were 78(59.1%) trainees who were married compared to 54(40.9%) who were unmarried. Against the baseline tolerance of ambiguity score of 132, the overall aggregate mean tolerance of ambiguity level was 71.28 ± 5.81 showing a moderate level. There was no significant correlation between the tolerance of ambiguity and the trainees’ age, years of training and marital status (p>0.05). The qualitative phase comprised interviews with 9(6.8%) subjects. Thematic analysis suggested that the trainees perceived autonomy, peer support, supervisor support, manageable workload, and professional development opportunities as facilitators of tolerance of ambiguity, while barriers were identified as poor physical environment, attitude of seniors and supervisors, management issues and excessive workload. During the coronavirus diseae-2019 pandemic, excessive workload and fear of infection were identified as factors affecting tolerance of ambiguity.
Conclusion: The medical trainees were found to have a moderate level of tolerance to ambiguity. Autonomy, peer support, supervisor support, manageable workload, and professional development opportunities contributed positively to this regard.

Peri-Intubation Cardiac Arrest, a risk that isn’t talk about much
Authors: Areeba Saleem  , Islam Hira
Published: August 2023

Madam,
Among the many high-risk treatments used on critically sick patients, tracheal intubation (TI) is one of the most preferred actions. Out of many risk factors associated with tracheal intubation, cardiac arrest (CA) is a rare, the most serious and least considered risk. In most studies, peri-intubation CA (PICA) is referred to as, when it occurs within 5-60 minutes following the intubation procedure (1). According to different studies, the estimated incidence of PICA varies from 1.8% to 3.1% (1,2,3). One would think that the rate of PICA would be higher outside of the hospital because the environment isn't as good as in the hospital and it's harder to get help if there are problems with intubation. Significantly, in a study performed by Jardine C G at al, the incidence rate (2.5) of out of hospital PICA is comparable to that reported earlier in hospitalized patients who required emergency intubation.
 According to Jardine C G at al, PICA is linked to several parameters that contribute to arterial oxygen desaturation during intubation (2). One such factor was being overweight (2,5). Arteriole desaturation happens much more rapidly in obese patients than in those of normal BMI because of their diminished oxygen reserves. A greater number of intubation attempts is also one of the main factors leading to PICA (1,3,4). Increased risk of peri-intubation CA was also seen in individuals with increased lactate levels (metabolic acidosis) compared to those without (1,5). Cardiogenic pulmonary ooedema patients are also at risk of PICA (1). Due to their inhibitory influence on catecholamine release caused by stress, neuromuscular blocking drugs like succinylcholine and rocuronium may cause cardiac arrest (2,4,5)
PICA being a serious risk factor associated with TI, these preventative steps may significantly lower the likelihood of developing PICA.

It should be made sure that successful intubation should be done at the first attempt to avoid risk of PICA.
Ketamine and etomidate use should be preferred as they have favourable hemodynamic effect (3).
PICA incidence may be decreased by using bag mask ventilation prior to intubation, which lessens the possibility of arterial desaturation.
It is imperative that immediate resuscitation in case of PICA can reduce the number of deaths caused by it.
Calculating shock index prior to intubation can help in improved management of the patient.
Normothermic Perfusion: a game-changer for kidney transplantation?
Authors: Memon Midori , Zafar Nazia , Khaliq Rameen
Published: August 2023

Respected Madam,
Organ transplantation has revolutionized the field of medicine. Kidney transplant, in particular, is of significant importance in Pakistan as there is an estimated prevalence rate of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) of 100 per million population. The annual transplant rate is only about 8 to 10 cases per million.1,2 Due to this shortage in organ transplants, over 15,0000 people lose their lives each year due to end-stage organ failure, among which 15000 are patients with end-stage kidney failure. These numbers can be reduced greatly if the number of kidneys available is increased.3
As the number of organs available for a kidney transplant is limited in Pakistan owing to strict regulations to end transplant tourism, it is crucial to increase the viability of the organs  available to ensure the success and survival of patients suffering from ESRD.4 An exciting finding was revealed by Kidney Research UK, where 100 kidneys could potentially be saved for transplant each year after being retrieved from donors in the UK via normothermic perfusion, This technique  has shown promising results in numerous research.5  As evident from the name, in this technique, oxygen is provided to organs during preservation to allow aerobic metabolism.  In a review conducted by Franka Messner et al, it was concluded that this technology may be used as an ex-vivo organ assessment and treatment platform. During renal NMP, mesenchymal stromal/stem cells, multipotent adult progenitor cells, and microRNA have been used in studies, and preliminary data shows that these therapies do indeed reduce kidney injury and inflammatory response. Furthermore, in comparison to any cold preservation approach, normothermic ex vivo kidney perfusion (NEVKP) revealed a considerable reduction in preservation harm in a study conducted by Laura I Mazilescu et al.6
As the demand for kidney transplants increases in Pakistan, normothermic perfusion can be studied further to provide an efficient technique for the preservation of organs. By ensuring the better viability of the available organs, we can perhaps help to increase the chances of survival of patients suffering from ESRD since we already face a shortage in the number of organs available for transplantation.

Bubuk kopi koprosa samalanga diolah oleh sebuah perusahaan pengolahan biji bubuk kopi untuk dijadikan biji bubuk kopi saring. Sebenarnya biji bubuk kopi yang digunakan untuk memproduksinya diambil dari Gayo juga kemudian diolah di Pidie tepatnya di Beureunuen kecamatan Mutiara. Adapun bubuk kopi ini dikenal dengan nama bubuk kopi samalanga itu dikarenakan yang punya produk ini berasal dari Samalanga yang merupakan kecamatan dari kabupaten Bireuen. Namun dalam menentukan jumlah produksi bubuk kopi di waktu yang akan datang tidak lah mudah, hal ini disebabkan oleh banyaknya faktor yang mempengaruhi dalam perhitungan menjadi kendala dalam mengambil kebijakan untuk dapat menentukan jumlah bubuk kopi yang akan diproduksi. Faktor-faktor tersebut seperti, produksi maksimum, permintaan minimum, permintaan maksimum, persediaan maksimum, persediaan minimum, produksi minimum, permintaan saat ini, dan persediaan sekarang, faktor tersebut yang harus diperhatikan dalam sistem pendukung keputusan. Metode Fuzzy Mamdani dapat dipakai untuk menyelesaikan kasus ini untuk memprediksi jumlah produksi bubuk kopi berdasarkan data persediaan dan jumlah permintaan terhadap bubuk kopi yang ada. Berdasarkan hasil pengujian validitas yang dilakukan sebanyak 20 kali penguijian, didapat tingkat persentase error sebesar 0,49% atau tingkat akurasinya sebesar 99,51%. Persentase yang didapat berdasarkan 20 data uji ini tidak dapat menjadikan tolok ukur jika data penentuan produksi berubah.Kata kunci  : Kopi Koprosa, ,  SPK,  Fuzzy Mamdani, Beureunuen, Mutiara,Pidie

Tanaman padi merupakan makanan pokok yang wajib dibudidayakan oleh petani di Indonesia, dengan tujuan untuk kemakmuran para petani maupun kemakmuran tanah air. Tanaman padi umumnya, mengadopsi sistem pertanian ektensif (sistem tanaman  yang menggunakan modal kecil) dan tidak terlalu menerapkan pertanian intensif modern (sistem tanaman  yang menggunakan modal besar). Agar petani dapat menangani nutrisi tanaman padi dengan baik,  maka dibutuhkan sebuah metode yaitu Certainty Factor. Certainty Factor merupakan suatu metode untuk membuktikan ketidakpastian pemikiran seorang pakar, dimana untuk mengakomodasi hal tersebut seseorang biasanya menggunakan certainty factor untuk menggambarkan tingkat keyakinan pakar terhadap masalah yang sedang dihadapi. hasil metode certainty factor yang berupa persentase, cocok untuk hasil program yang dibutuhkan pada penelitian ini. Untuk mendukung metode ini, supaya berjalan dengan baik, maka dibutuhkan juga sebuah platform untuk membuat program berbasis android. Aplikasi berbasis android dapat mengatasi kendala tersebut karena menawarkan kemudahan serta kepraktisan mengenai informasi yang dapat memanjakan penggunanya tanpa harus membuka browser lagi karena dengan membuka aplikasi tersebut otomatis sudah terhubung dengan sistem pakar.Kata Kunci  : Tanaman Padi, Certainty Factor, Android, Sistem Pakar, Petani

Keberadaan air mineral kemasan demikian cepat diterima oleh masyarakat, bahkan cenderung terus mengalami peningkatan permintaan. Sifat praktis khususnya kemasan gelas di setiap acara menjadi salah satu alasan penggunaan A M D K (air minum dalam kemasan). Tingginya demand disikapi oleh pelaku usaha sebagai peluang bisnis. Sehingga, A M D K yang tadinya hanya dikuasai oleh satu atau dua merek  saja, saat ini telah berkembang banyak merek dengan varian harga. Namun, ragam merek yang beredar belum tentu memiliki standar yang sama sesuai dengan yang diamanatkan dalam SNI A M D K. Secara fisik mungkin saja akan terlihat sama, namun secara kimiawi dan mikrobiologi yang tak kasat mata tidak disadari oleh konsumen. Oleh karena itu maka diperlukan adanya sistem pengukuran kualitas air minum untuk dapat menentukan manakah yang terlebih layak untuk di konsumsi. Metode naïve bayes dalam penelitian ini di implementasikan untuk mengukur parameter kualiatas air mineral seperti pengukuran PH, TDS, Suhu dan lain sebagainya untuk dapat mengukur kualitas air mineral dalam kemasan berbagai produk yang dkonsumsi oleh masyarakat sehingga akan memberikan sebuah keputusan dan informasi berbasis web untuk  rekomendasi produk terbaik air mineral. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan observasi mendatangi langsung tempat-tempat penjualan air mineral kemasan serta Instansi-instansi yang terkait dengan penelitian ini seperti Dinas Kesehatan. Sistem ini dibuat berbasis android sehingga dapat memberikan informasi untuk mendukung pengambilan keputusan dalam memilih jenis air mineral berdasarkan hasil dari matrik perbandingan alternatif dan kriteria. Sistem dapat menganlisa cara kerja metode naïve bayes untuk mendapatkan sebuah keputusan air mineral kemasan yang layak di konsumsi oleh masyarakat.Kata Kunci  : Naïve Bayes, Air Mineral, PH, TDS, Suhu, SNI AMDK
