Authors:   MBBS, SGT Medical College, Gurugram, Haryana, India., Sood Kanuja
Published: October 2023

Introduction: Over the past decade, there has been considerable discourse regarding the obstacles that the LGBTQIA+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning, intersex, asexual, and others) community faces in India. Despite these efforts, they continue to experience significant health inequities. Objective: In this content review, we aimed to answer five questions about the mental health of LGBTQIA+ individuals. These questions include the current state of research on the topic, the factors that lead to mental health issues, the role of existing health facilities in addressing these factors, proposed interventions for this group, and potential areas for future research over the next decade. Method: We explored the topic of mental health, which includes an individuals thoughts, feelings, and actions. Our search for relevant literature involved online journal databases, archives of leading journals, websites of prominent LGBTQIA+ organizations, and cross-referencing of papers. We analysed the data on problems faced by LGBTQ+ review articles on PubMed in the last decade. A total of 60 articles were screened, lesser number of review articles highlights the importance of increased research in this field of humanity. Conclusion: Studies have shown that LGBTQIA+ individuals experience higher rates of mental health concerns, possibly due to the adapted minority stress model. Researchers have explored factors related to mental well-being, societal attitudes, and personal experiences. However, there is a lack of intervention studies, and certain subgroups within the LGBTQIA+ community have been underrepresented in research. Identifying these gaps has led to recommendations for future research in the next decade.

Published: October 2023

Background: Surgical intervention is considered as the radical traditional management of acute posttraumatic tracheobronchial lesions.The aim of the current study was to assess the effectiveness of conservative and surgical treatments for managing posttraumatic tracheobronchial injury management Methodology: This is a retrospective study of 27 patients, from January 2009 to December 2015, with posttraumatic tracheobronchial injuries who were managed in King Faisal Medical Complex (trauma hospital) and King Abdul-Aziz specialist hospital (tertiary hospital) in Taif city, Saudi Arabia. Results: Seventeen (63%) cases were treated conservatively, whereas the remaining 10 (37%) cases were treated surgically, the lesion was repaired with interrupted absorbable sutures. Conservative treatment consisted of endotracheal intubation, adequate ventilation with low tidal volumes, chest tube, prevention of pressure peaks as well as retention achieving a continuous control and Bronchoscopy follow-up. The overall survival rate within our series was 92.6% (25 patients). Two patients (7.4%) in our study died (one was treated surgically and the other conservatively) due to associated Polytrauma. Conclusions: In our experience, conservative treatment is a feasible, safe procedure with a mortality rate as low as that of surgical management, and therefore should be considered as an option in the management of tracheobronchial injuries.
LIFESTYLE IN SPACE HABITAT
Authors: Patra Kriti
Published: October 2023

For humanity to settle in space, several space habitats have been proposed: The Bernal sphere, the ONeill cylinder, and The Stanford Torus. Among them, the most acceptable space habitat is The Stanford Torus. Although the structure and other parameters are available, the food criteria and living organisms to be present are overlooked. To have healthy living conditions in the limited area and environment of the torus-shaped space habitat pose a challenge. For the residents to have working stamina in the space habitat, The Stanford Torus, approximately 3000Kcal energy is required. Accordingly, a diet chart fulfilling the requirement is needed. With the limited number of human and animal species living there, a careful analysis of which animals to be kept in the colony and their consequences should also be carried out. Thus the main highlights of this paper are: 1. Food Habits of the people to meet the energy requirement The types of organisms such as animals, plants, and microorganisms, along with 10,000 humans to be taken there.

The fundamental premise behind clinical approaches for dendritic cell mediated immunization in cancer is that the limiting defect in natural antitumor immunity is at the level of antigen presentation. In contrast to vaccines for the prevention of infections, cancer vaccines are administered in a therapeutic mode, to eradicate antigen-bearing tumor cells already present in the host. Over decades, the identification of antigens that can serve as targets for immune effectors have resulted in a profusion of strategies for activating tumor antigen-specific immune responses. Therapeutic vaccines, unlike prophylactic vaccines for the prevention of infections, all share some basic attributes, the presence of target antigens, and a method for delivering the antigen into the antigen-presentation machinery in conjunction with other molecules required to provide T- and/or B-cell activation.

Authors: Srivastava Alok , Singh Manish , Yadav Awadhesh , Srivastava Chhitij , D. Srivastava Akanksha , Jauhari Sugandha
Published: October 2023

The pituitary is a pea-sized complex gland located below the hypothalamus at the base of skull in the sella turcica, is composed of three types of cells. Pituitary being the centre of all the stimulating hormones of various organs, its overgrowth leads to hormone excess syndromes, like acromegaly, Cushing disease, central hypothyroidism, and hyperprolactinemia etc. so studies involving pituitary tumors have mainly focused on hormone production. Pituitary Adenoma is the most common (~85%) tumor in the sellar-suprasellar region. Their prevalence is growing which has risen over the last 20 years probably due to improved imaging techniques and treatment outcomes. Due to the tumors growth in size Compression of adjacent anatomical structures especially optic nerves in close vicinity can lead to focal neurologic deficits such as diplopia, visual field defects and loss of visual acuity typically bitemporal hemianopsia. The surgical procedure of choice is a trans-sphenoidal micro surgically or endoscopically performed by a neurosurgeon leaving transcranial approach for large and invasive pituitary neoplasm with sellar remnants. Even in the case of recurrent tumor or progression of residual tumor tissue after surgery, a second operation and/or radiotherapy should be considered.

The Rohingyas are refugees originally from Rakhine, Myanmar, who fled to Malaysia since in the end of the 1970s and early 1980s. They choose Malaysia as a destination compared to other South-east Asian countries, in spite of the obstacles and restrictions faced. Hence the purpose of this article is to identify the factors for their preference in choosing Malaysia as a transit country, and the modus operandi used by them to enter Malaysia. This qualitative research gathered data from content analysis of written materials. It argues that the ethnic Rohingyas entry into Malaysia is not only to flee the ethnic crisis in their country of origin. Their purpose is partly economic in efforts to build a better life for the future, due to the favourable factors of sharing a common religion with Muslim Malaysians, family influence, political stability, attitude and culture of Malaysian society and opportunity for education in Malaysia. The availability of various migration cross-border routes paved the way for their planned or unplanned entry. The selection of migration route whether over land, water or air or combination of routes depends on aspects such as safety, duration of journey, service fees for smuggling of humans and the risk of getting caught by authorities.

Authors: Yang Yanxin , Lin Ziyun , Lu Hua , Zhan Xudong
Published: October 2023

In response to the complex issue of predicting lateral spreading of liquefied soil during earthquakes, this study establishes a comprehensive seismic database. The Newmark sliding block method is utilized to calculate lateral displacements, and a sensitivity analysis model for liquefaction-induced lateral spreading is developed by considering multiple parameters. Based on the three most influential parameters identified through sensitivity analysis, a novel liquefaction-induced lateral spreading prediction model is proposed. The reliability of this new model is then demonstrated by comparing it with existing classical prediction models, as well as by analyzing correlation coefficients and root mean square errors.

Sustainable ecosystem management based on optimal water allocation and equity measures
Authors: Li Guo
Published: October 2023

Allocation of water resources is an interesting research topic and one of the main challenges of arid regions. From the point of view of agriculture, this issue is closely related to ecological balance, economic development and social stability. Therefore, fair, efficient and sustainable allocation of water resources for users and decision-making is essential. This paper presents a dynamic stochastic programming model that predicts soil moisture content in a growing season based on data collected from an experimental farm. The model included three types of loam soil, silt loam and clay loam with three treatments of irrigation intervals of 3, 7, 10 and 14 days and three amounts of water allocation with three replications. The proposed framework was evaluated with two criteria of spatial and temporal equity, and the optimal water allocation was analyzed based on this criterion. The results showed that the criterion of temporal equity for loam soil with 7-day irrigation intervals is more than twice that of 14-day irrigation intervals. In addition, the depth of irrigation has had the greatest impact on the fluctuations of the criterion of equity in water allocation in the growing season.
Vagos y virtudes
Authors: Santillán Salgado Gustavo
Published: October 2023

En este artículo se explora la creciente intervención de los civiles, funcionarios o particulares en temáticas éticas definidas por los sacerdotes como atribuciones exclusivas de su jurisdicción, mediante el estudio de fuentes de la época como leyes, decretos y discursos, así como de investigaciones especializadas en la problemática de los vagos (migrantes y marginados, ociosos y jugadores, desempleados y artesanos, trabajadores sin cualificaciones laborales y aun personas con pocos vínculos comunitarios). Tiene como objetivo perfilar dicha participación dentro de una dinámica proveniente del siglo XVIII a raíz de la persecución borbónica de la vagancia y constatable a lo largo del siglo XIX más allá de fronteras políticas. Sin desconocer la relevancia del movimiento de Reforma (1855-1861), ofrece como resultado que algunos elementos secularizadores de la nación mexicana no fueron necesariamente productos de la legislación reformista, sino parte de un proceso de largo aliento. Queda pendiente, al respecto, un trabajo de archivo con una metodología basada en los estudios sobre los grupos subordinados. Las implicaciones del proceso se bifurcan en temáticas distintas como la construcción de la autoridad civil y la reformulación del papel eclesiástico en la vida nacional. Así, se concluye que la supuesta contradicción entre un país legal construido con una estructura jurídica laica y un país real fundado en un supuesto fanatismo católico pierde solidez a favor de interpretaciones un tanto menos epidérmicas y, tal vez, más complicadas de las contrastantes dinámicas decimonónicas.

Examining the Relationship between Attitudes Towards Genomic Technology and Genetic Entrepreneurial Intention among Egyptian Healthcare Professionals
Authors: Abdelwahed Nadia A. Abdelmegeed
Published: October 2023

In the contemporary landscape, nurturing genomic entrepreneurial attitudes and intentions poses a substantial challenge for healthcare organizations. The present paper examines the factors affecting attitudes towards genomic technology and entrepreneurial intentions among Egyptian healthcare professionals. The study applied a quantitative approach and collected cross-sectional data from 276 health professionals using convenience sampling. Using structural equation modeling (SEM) through SmartPLS 4, the findings suggest a positive significant effect of innovation and genomic knowledge on attitudes towards genetic technology. On the other hand, risk perception negatively predicts attitudes towards genetic technology. Finally, the path analysis also confirmed a positive significant effect of attitudes towards genetic technology on entrepreneurial intention. The study's findings would help develop policies regarding genomic innovation among healthcare professionals. Unraveling the dynamics at the genomics-entrepreneurship intersection empowers healthcare professionals to seize genomic technology opportunities, advancing the healthcare sector.
User-Centered Development of Bolster, an mHealth Intervention for Early Psychosis Caregivers: Needs Assessment, Prototyping, and Field Trial
Authors: Buck Benjamin , Wingerson Mary , Whiting Erica , Snyder Jaime , Monroe-DeVita Maria , Ben-Zeev Dror
Published: October 2023

Background

Caregivers play a critical role in the treatment and recovery of youth and young adults at risk for psychosis. Caregivers often report feeling isolated, overwhelmed, and lacking in resources. Mobile health (mHealth) has the potential to provide scalable, accessible, and in-the-moment support to caregivers. To date, few if any mHealth resources have been developed specifically for this population.

Objective

The aim of this study was to conduct user-centered design and testing of an mHealth intervention to support early psychosis caregivers.

Methods

We conducted a multiphase user-centered development process to develop the Bolster mobile app. In phase 1, a total of 21 caregivers were recruited to participate in a qualitative needs assessment and respond to an initial prototype of the Bolster platform. Content analysis was used to identify key needs and design objectives, which guided the development of the Bolster mobile app. In phase 2, a total of 11 caregivers were recruited to participate in a 1-week field trial wherein they provided qualitative and quantitative feedback regarding the usability and acceptability of Bolster; in addition, they provided baseline and posttest assessments of the measures of distress, illness appraisals, and family communication.

Results

In phase 1, participants identified psychoeducation, communication coaching, a guide to seeking services, and support for coping as areas to address. Live prototype interaction sessions led to multiple design objectives, including ensuring that messages from the platform were actionable and tailored to the caregiver experience, delivering messages in multiple modalities (eg, video and text), and eliminating a messaging-style interface. These conclusions were used to develop the final version of Bolster tested in the field trial. In phase 2, of the 11 caregivers, 10 (91%) reported that they would use Bolster if they had access to it and would recommend it to another caregiver. They also reported marked changes in their appraisals of illness (Cohen d=0.55-0.68), distress (Cohen d=1.77), and expressed emotion (Cohen d=0.52).

Conclusions

To our knowledge, this study is the first to design an mHealth intervention specifically for early psychosis caregivers. Preliminary data suggest that Bolster is usable, acceptable, and promising to improve key targets and outcomes. A future fully powered clinical trial will help determine whether mHealth can reduce caregiver burdens and increase engagement in services among individuals affected by psychosis.

Published: October 2023

In the Big Data era data visualization and exploration systems, as means for data perception and manipulation are facing major challenges. One of the challenges for modern visualization systems is to ensure adequate visual presentation and interaction.  Therefore, within this paper, we present a tool for interactive visualization of data with a hierarchical structure. It is a general-purpose tool that uses a graph-based approach. However, its main focus is on the visual analysis of concept lattices generated as the output of the Formal Concept Analysis algorithm. As the data grow, concept lattice can become complex and hard for visualization and analysis. In order to address this issue, functionalities important for the exploration of the large concept lattices are applied within this tool. The usage of the tool is presented in the example of visualization of concept lattices generated based on the available data on the Canadas open data portal and can be used for exploring the usage of tags within datasets.
