Morbidity pattern of musculoskeletal disorders among school children in a selected ward of urban Bengaluru using pediatric Gait, Arms, Legs, and Spine screening tool
Authors: Kumar M. Shashi , Seema P. , Anil N. S. , Deepthi R. , Achala P.
Published: July 2024

Background:

Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) among children are common globally and in India with the prevalence ranging from 4% to 15%. Musculoskeletal symptoms can be due to trauma or growing pains or symptoms of potentially life-threatening conditions such as malignancy, sepsis, and autoimmune disorders. With their indefinite onset and long latent period, early detection of these disorders and prompt treatment reduce the severity of outcomes; hence, screening is necessary.

Objective:

The objective of this study was to estimate the occurrence and describe the morbidity patterns of MSDs among school children in a selected school cluster of urban Bengaluru using the pediatric Gait, Arms, Legs, and Spine (pGALS) screening tool.

Methods:

A cross-sectional study was done, which included all the students of one randomly selected school cluster in one ward of urban Bengaluru. The total number of students was 260; 37 students did not get their parental consent, and 29 students were chronically absent. The pGALS tool has demonstrated an excellent sensitivity (around 97%) and specificity (around 98%) at all joints with high acceptability among children and parent/guardian and across cultures.

Results:

The overall occurrence of MSDs based on the pGALS tool among school children was 46.9% (91/194). Males were the most affected than females (males: 51.6% and females: 48.4%). Children in the age group of 10–15 years were most affected by MSDs (51.6%).

Conclusion:

The prevalence of MSDs is high among school-going children based on the pGALS screening tool, and this may be due to a recent sports event.
Comparison of the effect of 2 mL versus 3 mL sub-Tenon xylocaine injection on akinesia and analgesia in cataract patients at the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital, Nigeria
Authors: Biola Tota-Bolarinwa T. , Grace Adepoju F. , Dupe Ademola-Popoola S.
Published: July 2024

PURPOSE:

Sub-Tenon anesthesia is a form of local anesthetic techniques used in ophthalmic procedures, especially in cataract surgery. Few studies in our environment have reported the effects of sub-Tenon anesthesia on akinesia and analgesia as well as optimum volumes of anesthetic agents that are required for effective analgesia and akinesia. The objective of this study is to determine and compare the level of analgesia and akinesia and the effect of ocular compressions after sub-Tenon injection of 2 mL versus 3 mL of xylocaine among patients booked for cataract surgery in the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital (UITH).

METHODS:

A cross-sectional comparative study among cataract patients booked for surgery in the Department of Ophthalmology at UITH was carried out from March 2017 to August 2017. A total of 200 cataract patients that met the inclusion criteria were recruited into the study over 6 months. Lists of cataract patients booked for surgery formed the sampling frame. Questionnaires were administered to obtain information on sociodemographic, ocular symptoms, and other histories. Visual acuity was checked, and ocular examination was done with a pen-torch, ophthalmoscope, and slit-lamp examination with 78D. Tonometry and optic nerve assessments were done to exclude any patient with preexisting glaucoma or suspicious disc. About 200 patients were randomly allocated into one of two volume groups (Group 1 had 2 mL sub-Tenon xylocaine injection whereas Group 2 had 3 mL); level of analgesia and akinesia was checked 12 min and 15 min, respectively.

RESULTS:

The age range was 20–107 years; mean age for Group 1 was 63.8 ± 12.64, whereas the mean age of Group 2 was 64.14 ± 14.14. There was a slight female preponderance given a M:f of 1:1.4 and more than half of the patients presented with right eye (RE) cataract. Levels of analgesia 12 min after sub-Tenon injections in both groups were similar. However, two patients were found to have severe pain in Group 1, and no patients had severe pain in Group 2. The level of akinesia which was assessed 15 min after injection in both groups was found to be significantly better in Group 2.

CONCLUSION:

There was a slight female preponderance with about two-third of the total patients being female and the percentage of females who had no pain was more than the male, more than 50% of the patients had RE cataracts. Sub-Tenon anesthesia whether with 2 mL or 3 mL led to a statistically significant rise in intraorbital pressure (IOP); however, with ocular compression, the IOP was found to decrease below the preinjection pressure in both groups. Levels of analgesia were similar in the two groups, whereas akinesia was statistically better in the group that had 3 mL injection.

ABSTRACT

The decline in bone mineral density (BMD) poses a significant concern for postmenopausal women with obesity. Research indicates that aerobic exercises show potential for enhancing bone health. However, there remains no consensus regarding their effects on BMD. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of various exercise interventions on BMD and overall health among postmenopausal women with obesity, with particular attention to caloric restriction (CR). Following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses 2020 guidelines, we performed a comprehensive literature search on PubMed, targeting studies published up to August 2023. Our search focused on aerobic exercise, resistance training, and combined exercise modalities, examining their impact on BMD, body composition, and physical fitness in postmenopausal women with obesity. We reviewed 11 studies, predominantly on aerobic exercise, involving women who are overweight and sedentary, nine of which were randomized trials. Our findings suggest that aerobic exercise has a mild protective effect on BMD and can significantly reduce fat mass. Notably, when combined with CR, aerobic exercise not only enhances the reduction of fat tissue mass but also potentially offers a certain level of protection for BMD. Additionally, the intervention combining aerobic exercise with resistance training emerges as a key promoter of bone health, underscoring the importance of tailored exercise programs for this population. Consequently, balanced dietary patterns (like the Mediterranean diet), combined with exercise, are recommended for optimal health outcomes. Tailored exercise programs integrating both aerobic and resistance training are crucial for sustaining overall health and bone density in this population.
Multi-level nonstandard analysis and the axiom of choice
Authors: Hrbacek Karel
Published: July 2024

Model-theoretic frameworks for Nonstandard Analysis depend on the existence of nonprincipal ultrafilters, a strong form of the Axiom of Choice (AC). Hrbacek and Katz, APAL Volume 72 formulate axiomatic nonstandard set theories SPOT and SCOT that are conservative extensions of respectively ZF and ZF + ADC (the Axiom of Dependent Choice), and in which a significant part of Nonstandard Analysis can be developed.The present paper extends these theories to theories with many levels of standardness, called respectively SPOTS and SCOTS. It shows that Jin's recent nonstandard proof of Szemeredi's Theorem can be carried out in SPOTS and that SCOTS is a conservative extension of ZF + ADC.

Published: July 2024

Background: diabetic complications and olfactory dysfunction (OD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) seem related. This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of OD in T2DM patients and to analyze its relationship with diabetic complications. Methods: 130 T2DM patients and 100 comparable controls were enrolled. Olfaction was evaluated using the Extended Smell Test (TDI) and the Italian brief Questionnaire of Olfactory Disorders – Brief-IT-QOD. T2DM patients were divided into: “Group 1”, patients with no complications, and “Group 2”, patients with at least one diabetic complication. Non-parametric tests were used. Machine learning algorithms were applied to explore which variables were most important in predicting the presence of OD in T2DM. Results: The prevalence of OD was significantly higher in Group 2 than in controls (71.4% vs 30%) and in Group 1 (71.4% vs 43.3%). However, when comparing the TDI scores between Group 1 and 2 the only significant difference was found for the discrimination scale and not for the identification and threshold scales. Brief-IT-QOD scores were significantly higher in Group 2 than in controls. The Random Forest and variable importance algorithms highlighted the relevance of LDL, glycated hemoglobin, type of complication (macrovascular) and age in determining OD in T2DM. The last three variables were included in a nomogram for the prediction of OD risk in T2DM. Conclusions: T2DM patients with diabetic complications are more frequently affected by OD. Poor glycemic control, LDL values, age and presence of macrovascular complications are the more important factors in determining OD in T2DM patients.

Published: July 2024

We present fully abstract encodings of the call-by-name and call-by-value
$\lambda$-calculus into HOcore, a minimal higher-order process calculus with no
name restriction. We consider several equivalences on the $\lambda$-calculus
side -- normal-form bisimilarity, applicative bisimilarity, and contextual
equivalence -- that we internalize into abstract machines in order to prove
full abstraction of the encodings. We also demonstrate that this technique
scales to the $\lambda\mu$-calculus, i.e., a standard extension of the
$\lambda$-calculus with control operators.

Teorias explicativas do insucesso educativo e estratégias de intervenção- uma análise empírica
Authors: Pinto Sussana , Tomé Francisco
Published: July 2024

De forma a promover a igualdade de oportunidades democratizou-se o acesso ao ensino, e como consequência o insucesso escolar atingiu níveis preocupantes. Neste contexto, o nosso objectivo foi procurar averiguar as principais explicações apontadas pelos professores para este fenómeno e estratégias de intervenção. Através de um inquérito a professores, foi possível ordenar as causas e as estratégias de intervenção adoptadas para o combater. Os resultados obtidos na explicação deste problema, puseram em evidência teorias de cariz essencialmente individualista centradas no handicap sociocultural do aluno. No que concerne às estratégias promotoras de eficácia adoptadas pelos professores; estas deixam de estar predominantemente centradas no aluno, para se centrarem na prática sócio-institucional e biogenética. Se bem que os professores defendam que vale a pena lutar contra o insucesso educativo utilizando estratégias sistémicas para recuperar os alunos, estas são ainda pouco utilizadas por eles.

BİRİNCİ DÜNYA SAVAŞINDA OSMANLI CİHADININ AFGANİSTAN’DA YANSIMALARI
Authors: Aydın Yusuf
Published: July 2024

İlan edilen son ve başarısız Osmanlı cihadının tüm İslam âleminde olduğu gibi Afganistan’da da zayıf yansımaları oldu. Büyük Harp yıllarında kapalı bir devlet olan Afganistan, İngiltere’den aldığı senelik nakdî yardımlarla ayakta durabiliyordu ve İngiltere’nin adeta arka bahçesiydi. Bu sebeple bir Türk-Alman ittifakına girmesi mümkün değildi. Zaten nizamî bir ordusu yoktu ve Peştun, Dari, Afridi vs kabile hayatına dayanan Afganistan, feodal bir sistemle idare ediliyordu. Almanlar, Türkistan ve Hindistan’a ulaşmak için Afganistan’ı kullanacaklardı. Büyük Harbin başlarında Almanların da baskısıyla Afganistan’a giden Türk-Alman heyeti, Afganistan’ı Cihad-ı Ekber’e ikna etmeye çalışacaklardı. Ancak, Türk-Alman heyetleri ve Rauf Bey’in Heyet-i Seferiyesi bunda başarılı olamadı. Türk-Alman heyetleri arasındaki ihtilaflar, Afgan emirini aldatmağa çalışarak “Almanların Paris’e girdiğini, Türklerin de Mısır’ı düşürmek üzere olduğunu, Afganistan’ın da Cihad-ı Ekber’den hisse almak için acele etmesi gerektiğini söylemeleri tepkilere sebep oldu. Afgan Emiri de Rusya ve İngiltere arasında çiğnenmemek için bir Türk-Alman kuvvetlerinin Afganistan’a girmesini istiyordu. Bu talebin gerçekleşmesi imkânsızdı. Emir’in yakın çevresi cihada istekliyseler de İngiltere’den para yardımı alan Emir oyalama taktiğiyle akıllıca davranıp halkını harbe sürüklemedi.

Authors: Mijk Kadhim Naif , Alyas Khairya Haider , Haji Majdal Hussien , Ali Wafaa Khalid , Mohammad Fouad Kasim
Published: July 2024

Background: Polypharmacy is the intake of ≥ 5 medications. This study evaluates the prevalence of polypharmacy among elderly patients hospitalized during October 2023 at Azadi Hospital in Duhok, Iraq.
Methods: This was a retrospective cross-sectional study. The files of 373 patients aged ≥ 50 years were reviewed for the occurrence of polypharmacy (5 medications), major polypharmacy (6-9 medications) and excessive polypharmacy (≥ 10 medications) as well as their disease conditions.
Results: The 373 patients received 5 to 10 medications at first hospital entry, and during hospitalization (1-29 days), 220 (58.98%) of them received 5 to 12 medications. Cardiovascular disorders (44.04%) were the most encountered conditions in the hospitalized patients, followed by endocrine disorders (26.4%) and gastrointestinal disorders (8.14%). Polypharmacy occurred in 63 (16.89%) patients on the first day of hospital entry and in 73 (19.57%) during the hospitalization period. Major and excessive polypharmacy occurred among 90 (24.13%) and 2 (0.54%) of patients at the first entry and among 129 (34.58%) and 18 (4.83%) patients during the hospitalization, respectively. During hospitalization, polypharmacy significantly (Chi squared=22.655; df=1; p=1.9387˟10-6) increased by 17.43% when compared to that of the first hospital entry. The most commonly used medications at the first hospital entry were paracetamol (17.18%) followed by antibiotics (11.8%). During hospitalization the most commonly used medications were antibiotics (13.52%) followed by proton pump inhibitors (11.43%).
Conclusion: The prevalence of polypharmacy was high among elderly hospitalized patients. This condition might increase the risk of potential drug-drug interaction and the intake of inappropriate medications. Alerting clinicians about the significance of polypharmacy is necessary in prescribing and deprescribing medications to hospitalized elderly patients.

This research investigates the impact of digital transformation on corporate valuation in the Indonesian FMCG industry, focusing on the influence of digital maturity on stock returns. The study examines how technologies like AI, IoT, and data analytics affect financial performance and market perception. Using a quantitative approach, digital activity disclosed in annual reports from 2019 to 2023 for companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange is analyzed. Key variables include digital maturity, profitability, sales growth, and stock return data. Findings reveal a negative and insignificant correlation between digital maturity and stock returns, suggesting higher digital maturity does not lead to better stock performance. The relationship is mediated by non-significant changes in financial performance metrics, indicating digital transformation may not enhance operational efficiency and market competitiveness. Data analytics and process automation showed less significant effects on performance. The study offers insights for corporate managers, investors, and policymakers on the strategic and cautious application of digital technologies.

A soja é um alimento de alto valor nutritivo, que possui grande demanda no mercado mundial. Assim o aumento da produção da cultura é uma forma de contribuir com a segurança alimentar mundial. Uma alternativa para incrementar a produtividade da soja é o tratamento de sementes com bioestimulante, produtos que podem conferir proteção contra estresses bióticos e abióticos, desta forma auxiliando as plantas a expressarem seu máximo potencial genético. O óleo essencial de cravo (OEC) que apresenta diversas biológicas e alguns relatos de ação sobre a fisiologia sementes foi avaliado como bioestimulante no tratamento de sementes soja. Soluções entre 0,5 e 3,0 mL/L de OEC dissolvido em óleo de soja foram aplicadas as sementes de soja na dose de 40 mL/Kg e avaliadas em teste de germinação. O OEC a 1,6 mL/L foi avaliado em teste de sanidade sementes e em experimentos de campo nas safras, e na safra de 2019/2020 além dos parâmetros biométricos e de produtividade também avaliou o efeito nas trocas gasosas e na metabolômica da planta. O OEC a 1,6 mL/L apresentou resultados positivo para germinação, índice de velocidade de germinação, comprimento de raiz e número de raízes secundária, além de reduzir a porcentagem de infecção por fungos. Na safra de 2019/2020 houve um ganho significativo na produção de soja em comparação aos controles tratamento industrial e óleo de soja, já na safra 2021/2022 não se observou ganhos na produção em relação aos controles. O tratamento com OEC a 1,6 mL/L não afetou significativamente os parâmetros de trocas gasosas com 38 dias após semeadura DAS, mesmo tendo apresentado diferença significativa em 15 metabólitos entre os tratamentos Análise discriminante de mínimos quadrados parciais (PLS-DA) mostrou que componente principal explica 86,1% da variância total e permitiu separar em dois grupos, um formado pelo tratamento industrial e outro pelo óleo de soja e OEC, este apresentando maiores teores de carboidratos e aminoácidos, metabólitos produzidos como resposta das plantas as condições de estresse Palavras-chave: Glycine max; Syzygium aromaticum; bioestimulante; eugenol.

Hyperkalemia could be a serious diagnostic challenge to general practitioners, since it could be a life-threatening condition. The causes of hyperkalemia are diverse. These include preanalytical errors, release of potassium resulting from cell lysis, potassium shifting between intra- and extracellular spaces, decreased renal excretion, administration of medications. Diagnostic search should start with history taking. Initial clinical and laboratory tests are usually scheduled by the general practitioner at the outpatient stage. In case of excluded pseudohyperkalemia and medication effects, when hyperkalemia cannot be explained by the existing patient’s disorders, the search for undiscovered kidney, endocrine or cardiovascular diseases should be carried out.

Herpesvirus infections are widespread all over the world. According to literature, more than 90% of human population are infected with one or more herpes viruses. Evidence has been published that the lytic forms of Epstein–Barr virus infection (EBV) are the threatening factor for miscarriage, preterm delivery and intrauterine infection. Epstein–Barr virus infection holds a prominent position in the structure of intrauterine infections (about 50%). It is capable of causing various types of damage in the fetus and neonate (damage to the nervous system and organs of vision, recurrent chronic septicemia, hepatopathy and respiratory distress syndrome), and could cause chronic fatigue syndrome, persistent low grade fever, lymphadenopathy, and hepatosplenomegaly later in the child's life. EBV infection or reactivation during pregnancy affects not only the course and outcome of pregnancy, but also the psychological condition of the pregnant woman. The literature describes the common association of the EBV active forms with maternal depressive symptoms in pregnancy and early postnatal period. EBV reactivation most often occurs in the first or second trimester. Treatment of the EBV active forms requires a comprehensive approach, which includes etiotropic, pathogenetic, immunomodulatory, and symptomatic therapy. Generally, pathogenetic therapy, immunotherapy, and symptomatic therapy are provided during pregnancy. Etiotropic therapy is extremely rare since none of the antiviral drugs are licensed for use in pregnancy.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most important comorbidities associated with the severity of all three known pathogenic human coronavirus infections, including the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) virus. The implementation of regular monitoring of plasma glucose is important during a pandemic for patients with type I and type II diabetes. Less studied within the framework of COVID-19 is the problem of developing diabetes after a coronavirus infection. The first part of the review discusses the etiopathogenesis of DM in the post-COVID syndrome and presents clinical observations indicating an increased risk of developing diabetes after SARS-CoV-2 infection, which predetermines the need for glycometabolic control in the post-COVID syndrome. Hyperglycemia is a leading factor in the development of complications of DM. Glycated hemoglobin is the "gold standard" for monitoring glycemic control, but this indicator does not provide complete information about daily and intraday changes in glucose levels. An important place in the prevention of complications in patients with DM, especially during the pandemic of a new coronavirus infection, is occupied by regular self-monitoring of glucose levels. An important aspect of the technical impact on the adherence of patients to self-control and treatment of DM is the availability of convenient communication between the patient and the doctor, in particular, the possibility of contact remotely via a computer and mobile phone. In the second part of the review, the capabilities of the new model of the Contour glucometer line, the Contour Plus One glucometer, are considered.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is the most common tumor of the submucosal layer of the gastrointestinal tract. With the development of diagnostic methods, the incidence of GIST cases has increased significantly. Similarly, the prevalence of morbid obesity has increased significantly in the last decade. It is known from the literature that the incidence of GIST in obese patients is higher than in the general population. Although marginal and sparing resection is the first treatment for GIST, depending on the size and location of the tumor, broader surgery should also be considered. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is one of the most popular bariatric procedures. It can also be an option for concomitant treatment of both morbid obesity and gastric GIST when the tumor is within the range of sleeve resection.

Recent studies of patients with COVID-19 have shown that people with cardiovascular disease, hypertension, bleeding disorders, and diabetes have severe symptoms and higher mortality rates. In addition to cardiovascular disease, potential risks also include age, gender, immunosuppressive state, multiple organ dysfunction, chronic respiratory disease, kidney dysfunction, obesity, and cancer. In the practice of a doctor, it is important to be able to predict and prevent the development of complications, so it is necessary to identify the relationship between COVID-19 and cardiovascular diseases at the molecular level. These data will help in the development of markers for the development of complications and provide an opportunity to adjust treatment tactics and prevent their occurrence. This review considers changes in the main markers of heart failure in coronavirus infection, which can be used for risk stratification.
