Introduction: Insufficient synthesis and release of thyroid hormone give rise to hypothyroidism. At present, thyroid disease forms the second most common endocrine disorder in India next to Diabetes mellitus. The women are affected more than men .10% prevalence in adult women and 3% in adult men. Symptoms include fatigue, lethargy, aches and pains, increased sensitivity to cold, constipation, excessive tendency to sleep and angina pain .Thyroid hormone replacement must be taken for the rest of their life in case of hypothyroidism patients, if they are following allopathic system of medicine and the side effects which these medicines produced are much harmful than hypothyroidism. If homoeopathic similimum could stimulate the body to produce its hormones in a balanced level, then the need for lifelong hormonal replacement in hypothyroidism becomes unnecessary. Methodology: A comparative cross sectional study has been conducted using questionnaire on 60 hypothyroid patients, in such a way that female patients who has been diagnosed with hypothyroidism between the ages of 35 to 55 were selected. They were divided as 30 homoeopathic users and 30 non-homoeopathic users. Field study was conducted and allopathic users were obtained through NSS camp surveys and homoeopathic users through patients attending SKHMC OPDs .The questionnaires were filled by the patient. Details regarding TFT values height, weight, were recorded. The comorbidities suffered by each patient were recorded and analysis was made. Regarding symptomatic change before and after medication and also risk factors were added in the questionnaire. Analysis was done using chi square test to compare the treatment groups. Result: From the study conducted, it has been observed that the disease is prevalent in patients between 35 and 39 years. Majority of the patients had conditions like increased BMI(>25). Regarding symptomatic relief in patients before and after medication in both groups, homoeopathic users got better symptomatic relief when compared with non-users. Many of the symptoms has persist even after using conventional treatment when statistically analysed with a p value <0.01.
Association of Childhood Trauma with Migraines in Men

Published: September 2022

Advancements in knowledge are needed to identify the link between childhood trauma and migraines in men. Though migraines are more prevalent in women, research about migraines in men with past traumatic exposure has received little attention. There are9% of men of all ages with migraines in the United States, 12% of adult males in Europe between the ages of 18 and 65 with migraines, and 5 to 29% of males who experienced childhood sexual abuse, in other words, 1 in 6 males; whereby 50% of children who are sex trafficked in the United States are males, while 4% of male victims of significant trauma develop post-traumatic stress disorder. There may be a strong correlation that suggests that male migraine sufferers are more likely to have experienced some form of childhood trauma, in particular sexual abuse. Men’s migraines underrepresentation in research limits understanding of the adverse effects of childhood sexual abuse that often results in post-traumatic stress disorder and other psychiatric and medical conditions. As migraines become more understood, advances in our understanding of the neurobiological effects of trauma on brain structure and function may suggest a possible impact of early-life stress on the onset of migraines. Early-life stress-induced conditions in males may manifest because of sexual abuse often being undetected, fear of speaking out, or fear of being embarrassed. Unlike physical abuse where bruises are visible or neglect where malnourishment is noticeable, sexual abuse may inflict hidden bruises that may contribute to males suffering in silence. An increase in our knowledge may identify sexual abuse as the link between childhood trauma and migraines in men to suggest new treatment strategies.

Introduction: Childhood stunting has remained as a major public health problem for decades in developing countries, including Ethiopia. This study was carried out to assess prevalence and determinant factors associated with stunting among children aged 6–59 months in Pawie district, Northwest Ethiopia. Methods: Community based cross–sectional study was conducted from March to April/2019. Data was collected by an interviewer administered, pre–tested and structured questionnaire. A multi-stage sampling followed by a systematic sampling technique was used to include participants. Anthropometric body measurement of “Height/Length and Age” was assessed to determine child stunting. The measurements were analyzed by the WHO ANTHRO software. Stunting was defined as having of “Height–for–Age” Z–score (HAZ) lower than minus two standard deviations (HAZ <−2 SD) compared to the WHO reference population of the same age and sex group. Data was entered into Epi–Info–7 and exported to SPSS version 20 for further analysis. Variables with P–Values of < 0.2 in the bivariate analysis were transferred to the multivariate analysis. Both Crude Odds Ratio (COR) and Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR) with a 95% Confidence Interval (CI) were computed to determine the level of significance. Finally, all factors at P–Values of < 0.05 in the multivariate regression analysis were declared as determinants of stunting. Results: A total of 841 children aged 6–59 months were included in the study. All the interviews were carried out with mothers of study subjects. The overall prevalence of stunting was 37.2% [95% CI: 33.9-40.49. Child age [AOR= 2.0, 95% CI: 1.14, 3.47], colostrum feeding [AOR= 2.5, 95% CI: 1.31, 4.85], malaria infection [AOR= 1.9, 95% CI: 1.26, 2.86] and meal frequency [AOR= 1.9, 95% CI: 1.08, 3.18], maternal level of education [AOR= 5.2, 95% CI: 1.21, 22.10] and employment status [AOR= 4.9, 95% CI: 1.72, 14.39] were independently associated with stunting in the study area. Conclusions: Childhood stunting was important public health problem in the study area. It was significantly associated with child age, colostrum feeding, malaria infection and meal frequency in the past 24 hours, maternal education and employment status. Improving maternal education, and age-appropriate child feeding and health care utilization practices are vital interventions to decrease burden of childhood chronic under nutrition in Northwest Ethiopia.

Authors:   The East Asian Trade Association, Jing Jianwan
Published: September 2022

Purpose – The global economy is changing from material to mental and cultural consumption. Nostalgic consumption is emerging as a new consumption model for the cultural content industry. Under this background, the text studies the relationship between the consumer’s nostalgia tendency and the willingness to purchase creative products using the nostalgic consumption behavior mechanism.
Design/Methodology/Approach – This study examines the effect on the intention to purchase creative products from the perspective of consumers’ nostalgia.
Findings – This study provides complementary theoretical significance to the study of the nostalgic consumption behavior of cultural and creative products. At the same time, it provides practical reference significance for the future marketing strategy and development of cultural and creative industry.
Research Implications – Nostalgia is a unique characteristic that consumers generally have and, at the same time, a kind of psychology that can affect the purchase of a brand phenomenon. Consumer’s emotional response that evokes nostalgia and psychology related to stimulants are attitudes toward products that evoke consumer nostalgia. Sierra and McQuitty (2007) text expressed that consumers’ tendency to evoke nostalgia is advantageous in improving their willingness to purchase creative products based on the consumption behavior mechanism that evokes nostalgia. Therefore, nostalgia should be added to products or brands in the future development of the cultural and creative industries. Products can be enriched with nostalgic elements such as the country’s cultural history, memories of homes and childhood, symbolic meaning and preferences, characteristics of the times and cultural properties.

Abdominal tuberculosis mimicking Crohn’s disease: be aware of false-negative testing when stakes are high

Differentiating between abdominal tuberculosis (TB) and Crohn’s disease (CD) can be very challenging. Both are chronic granulomatous diseases involving the gastro-intestinal tract, most typically the ileocecal region, with overlapping clinical, radiological, endoscopic and histological features.

A correct differentiation is, however, crucial as the repercussions of a misdiagnosis can be serious. If CD is misdiagnosed as abdominal TB, unnecessary anti-tuberculous therapy poses a risk of toxicity and the appropriate CD treatment is delayed. In case of the reverse misdiagnosis, treatment with steroids or other immunosuppressants can result in disastrous dissemination of TB.

The incidence rates of TB are generally low in Western Europe. Still, abdominal TB should be considered in the differential diagnosis of abdominal complaints, especially in patients with risk factors such as previous stays in endemic regions and HIV positive or immunocompromised patients. A high index of suspicion is important as no single test can reliably differentiate abdominal TB from CD in all patients. Concurrent immunosuppression may further reduce the sensitivity of the diagnostic tests.

In this article, the case of a young man with severe ileocolitis is presented. He was diagnosed with CD and started on corticosteroids and later anti-TNF-alpha agents, only to develop an acute abdomen based on a disseminated TB infection. Retrospectively, abdominal TB was most probably the primary diagnosis, mimicking CD. This case illustrates the diagnostic challenges and limitations of the available diagnostic tests, as well as the clinical importance to exclude abdominal TB before diagnosing CD and starting immunosuppressive therapy.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the most common causes of the increased contents of serum enzymes in chronic liver diseases. Its incidence rate is associated with the ongoing epidemics of obesity and diabetes of type 2. This multifaceted metabolic disorder is commonly encountered in clinical practice of various health care professionals ranging from primary care providers and gastroenterologists to cardiologists, radiologists and gynecologists. NAFLD comprises a spectrum of liver diseases from simple steatosis to full blown steatohepatitis that is characterized by steatosis, lobular inflammation, ballooning and fibrosis. Over the last several years, much progress has been made in terms of our understanding of its risk factors, pathogenesis, natural history, non-invasive markers and treatment. This review is tailored to clinicians caring for patients with NAFLD and it covers practical issues related to the certain aspects of its evaluation and management.

Published: September 2022

The article presents the description of mitochondrial oxidation in thymus tissues of white rats exposed to ionizing radiation. It has been established that the level of respiration on endogen substrates decreases sharply in short-term period after the exposure and the adaptive potential of electron-transport chain almost disappears. In long-term period the level of respiration and the state of electron-transport chain restores in an undulatory way, control animals have higher indices of mitochondrial respiration system on the 90th day.

Острый панкреатит остается основной проблемой экстренной хирургии. Целью исследования явился анализ различных тактических подходов в хирургическом лечении тяжелого острого панкреатита в течение 3 этапов разработки проблемы. В работе изучены результаты хирургического лечения 571 пациента с панкреонекрозом за период 1995-2009 гг. За последние десятилетия произошла естественная эволюция во взглядах на хирургическое лечение тяжелого острого панкреатита. Миниинвазивные методы эффективны как первый и окончательный вариант лечения в ограниченной группе пациентов с панкреонекрозом. В большинстве случаев необходимо этапное комбинированное хирургическое лечение пациентов с распространенными неограниченными формами тяжелого острого панкреатита. Использование такого подхода позволило улучшить результаты лечения пациентов с панкреонекрозом.
Significado del concepto Gobierno Abierto en las administraciones españolas
Authors: González-García Laura , García García Jesús
Published: September 2022

El concepto de gobierno abierto se ha convertido en los últimos quince años en uno de los paradigmas de mayor importancia en el ámbito de las administraciones públicas. Para mejorar su comprensión y entender su alcance e implicaciones se hace necesario considerar como se comunica en planes y estrategias. El presente estudio analiza con un enfoque cualitativo mediante CAQDAS el texto del IV Plan de Gobierno Abierto de España, elaborado en cumplimiento de las obligaciones de pertenencia al Open Government Partnership. Los principales resultados confirman como la definición del concepto de gobierno abierto ha evolucionado desde su idea original, y como es dependiente de los distintos niveles competenciales de la administración pública, fruto de sus distintas obligaciones. Además, para el caso de las administraciones autonómicas, su definición varía notablemente entre ellas. Todo ello no hace más que abundar en la polisemia que varios autores han atribuido al concepto de gobierno abierto y, por tanto, a su ejecución práctica.

Abstract. Particulate matter (PM) has become a major concern in terms of human health
and climate impact. In particular, the source apportionment (SA) of organic
aerosols (OA) present in submicron particles (PM1) has gained relevance
as an atmospheric research field due to the diversity and complexity of its
primary sources and secondary formation processes. Moreover, relatively
simple but robust instruments such as the Aerosol Chemical Speciation
Monitor (ACSM) are now widely available for the near-real-time online
determination of the composition of the non-refractory PM1. One of the
most used tools for SA purposes is the source-receptor positive matrix
factorisation (PMF) model. Even though the recently developed rolling PMF technique has
already been used for OA SA on ACSM datasets, no study has assessed its
added value compared to the more common seasonal PMF method using a practical
approach yet. In this paper, both techniques were applied to a synthetic
dataset and to nine European ACSM datasets in order to spot the main output
discrepancies between methods. The main advantage of the synthetic dataset
approach was that the methods' outputs could be compared to the expected
“true” values, i.e. the original synthetic dataset values. This approach
revealed similar apportionment results amongst methods, although the
rolling PMF profile's adaptability feature proved to be advantageous, as it
generated output profiles that moved nearer to the truth points. Nevertheless,
these results highlighted the impact of the profile anchor on the solution,
as the use of a different anchor with respect to the truth led to
significantly different results in both methods. In the multi-site study,
while differences were generally not significant when considering year-long
periods, their importance grew towards shorter time spans, as in intra-month
or intra-day cycles. As far as correlation with external measurements is
concerned, rolling PMF performed better than seasonal PMF globally for the ambient
datasets investigated here, especially in periods between seasons. The results of this
multi-site comparison coincide with the synthetic dataset in terms of
rolling–seasonal similarity and rolling PMF reporting moderate improvements. Altogether, the
results of this study provide solid evidence of the robustness of both
methods and of the overall efficiency of the recently proposed rolling PMF
approach.
