Authors: Prasetya Rengga Dwija , Etrawati Fenny , Yeni Yeni , Lionita Widya
Published: April 2021

Smoking behavior among adolescents is increasing. This condition is partly influenced by the incessant advertisements for cigarettes that offer expectations that are the opposite of their impact. This study aims to determine the effect of audiovisual media-based education in the context of changing adolescent attitudes towards cigarette advertisements. The study design used was a Quasi Experiment with a Pretest-Posttest with Control Group. The research subjects were college adolescents (students) with a total of 25 people in the intervention group and 25 in the control group. Data were analyzed using dependent t test and independent t test. In the intervention group, there was a significant difference between attitudes towards cigarette advertisements before and after being given audiovisual media related to cigarette advertising in the experimental group (p = 0.010), on the other hand there was no change in attitude in the control group (p = 0.760) . However, there was no significant difference between attitudes towards cigarette advertising in the experimental and control groups (p = 0.096). Therefore, education using audiovisual media is considered more effective in increasing changes in attitudes towards cigarette advertisements. The campus is expected to reinforce and socialize regulations related to KTR and further research can conduct media pre-testing.

Published: April 2021

Background: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) has been a significant global health problem and a source of an enormous burden on the healthcare system and psychological distress for diagnosed patients. This study aims to understand the psychosocial impacts of CKD and dialysis therapy on patients undergoing dialysis in LAUTECH Teaching Hospital, Osogbo. Methodology: A descriptive study design was used, and the sampling technique was purposive. Subject participation was voluntary and preceded informed consent. Patients that had CKD and undergoing dialysis were identified. Data were collected, cleaned, and analysed using SPSS Version 23. Results: Patients perceptions of life and social limitations due to CKD and dialysis therapy revealed that 74.1% of the respondents always feel anxious, 67.8% feel that adjusting to dialysis is difficult, 85.5% of the respondents think that CKD and dialysis therapy is making them poorer, 90.3% feel they were neglecting important activities in life due to dialysis therapy. There was a significant relationship between patients’ perception of life and social limitations and the perceived influence of dialysis therapy on family functions and support persons (p<0.05) as well as the level of income and behavioural compliance. Conclusion: Our study revealed that CKD and dialysis therapy have major psychosocial impacts on the patients although many can cope well. We recommend more financial supports and interventions for CKD patients undergoing dialysis therapy. Doi: 10.28991/SciMedJ-2021-0302-5 Full Text: PDF

Published: April 2021

Coronaviruses have been posing a serious threat to mammals and birds and a new class of SARS-CoV is creating havoc to the world after its first incidence in Wuhan City in China in December 2019. These viruses are mainly responsible for causing serious respiratory tract infections which generally appear initially as the common cold and can be lethal just like SARS-CoV. The problems seem to vary and worsen from one person to another depending on age, gender, ethnicity, blood groups, host genetics, and associated comorbidities. Complications should also arise as this virus keeps mutating and evolving. This review points out the various underlying causes behind the severity of the illness and the mechanisms associated with it. This review will help society to understand the risks and severities associated with COVID-19. Individuals with health complexities and predispositions listed in this review are the most vulnerable in terms of severity and should take every possible measure to protect themselves from getting infected. As a consequence, this will lead to a decrease in mortality rates arising from COVID-19. Doi: 10.28991/SciMedJ-2021-0302-9 Full Text: PDF

Published: April 2021

Lupus vulgaris is a clinical variant of cutaneous tuberculosis, a rare subtype of extrapulmonary infection caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. A paucibacillary form associated with high degrees of immunity, predominantly in the face, may present several clinical and histopathological differential diagnoses, which makes its diagnosis challenging. We present a case of lupus vulgaris in an immunocompetent patient, whose initial clinical presentation and histopathology did not suggest the condition. The objective is to highlight the relevance of the hypothesis of cutaneous tuberculosis as an important differential diagnosis, especially in endemic areas.
Análise da Correlação Entre os Níveis Séricos de Vitamina D e a Gravidade da Dermatite Atópica
Authors: Câmara Mariz Juliana , De Moura Barros Norami , De Oliveira Martins Bárbara , Lopes Bressan Aline
Published: April 2021

Introdução: A dermatite atópica (DA) é uma doença inflamatória crônica e multifatorial. Casos graves afetam a qualidade de vida. A patogénese é complexa, marcada por resposta imune celular defeituosa, exacerbação da resposta inflamatória Th2 e comprometimento da função de barreira da pele. Evidências sugerem que a vitamina D atua na regulação da resposta imune inata e adaptativa, na redução do processo inflamatório e na melhora da barreira cutânea. O nosso objectivo foi correlacionar os níveis séricos de vitamina D com a gravidade da DA.

Material e Métodos: Foram analisados prontuários de 30 pacientes assistidos em um ambulatório de Dermatologia, entre 2015 e 2018. Os pacientes foram divididos em 2 grupos: doença leve (terapia tópica) e doença moderada a grave (usuários de imunossupressores).

Resultados: Foram selecionados 10 casos com DA leve e 20 com DA moderada a grave. Entre os pacientes com doença leve, 20% apresentaram deficiência de vitamina D. Quanto aos pacientes com doença moderada a grave, 40% apresentaram vitamina D deficiente. Comparando a média de vitamina D nos dois grupos, não houve diferença estatística entre o valor médio.

Conclusão: Estudos sobre associação entre os níveis de vitamina D e gravidade da DA permanecem controversos. Alguns trabalhos reforçam essa associação. Neste estudo, apesar da proporção de pacientes com deficiência de vitamina D ser duas vezes maior entre os pacientes com DA moderada a grave, não houve significância estatística entre os dois grupos, corroborando estudos já publicados. Mais estudos relacionando a dermatite atópica à vitamina D são desejáveis, tendo em vista a sua possível aplicabilidade como terapêutica auxiliar.

Published: April 2021

Introdução: As doenças de pele apresentam alta prevalência em ambientes hospitalares. Pacientes hospitalizados com dermatoses associadas apresentam maior risco de mortalidade do que indivíduos sem doenças de pele, reforçando a importância do diagnóstico e tratamento precoces.

Métodos: Foi realizada uma revisão sistemática em cinco bases de dados Medline, SciELO, LILACS, Web of Science e Scopus, utilizando as palavras- chave “Inpatients” AND “Dermatology”, abrangendo o período de 2010 a 2020. Em seguida, foi realizada uma revisão narrativa por meio dos autores 'seleção de referências relevantes sobre dermatologia hospitalar, incluindo artigos de revisão, livros e outras publicações.

Resultados: Com base na estratégia de busca, foram encontradas 166 publicações, das quais 26 estudos foram elegíveis para inclusão no estudo. A partir desta revisão da literatura, analisamos as frequências de dermatoses em pacientes hospitalizados e os tipos de cuidados dermatológicos. As doenças dermatológicas constituem patologias importantes nos hospitais, sendo as erupções infecciosas e medicamentosas as dermatoses mais prevalentes.

Conclusão: Este estudo demonstra que as doenças dermatológicas são altamente frequentes entre os pacientes hospitalizados. A maioria dos estudos corrobora a contribuição da dermatologia para a assistência hospitalar.

Published: April 2021

Introdução: Entre 2008 e 2019, o Laboratório de Histopatologia Cutânea do Serviço de Dermatologia do Hospital de Santa Maria efectuou 60 741 exames histopatológicos, dos quais 11 873 corresponderam a patologia cutânea não tumoral (20%).

Material e Métodos: Realizámos um estudo retrospetivo através da análise dos exames histopatológicos da patologia cutânea não tumoral estudados no laboratório durante o períodocompreenddo entre janeiro de 2008 e dezembro de 2019.

Resultados: O grupo nosológico onde se documentou maior número de diagnósticos foi o eritemas reactivos (16%), seguido das dermatoses espongióticas (14%), infeções cutâneas (14%), dermatoses psoriasiformes (10%), dermatoses liquenóides (8%), doenças bolhosas autoimunes (7%), vasculopatias (7%), colagenoses (6%), doenças granulomatosas (5%), doenças não neoplásicas dos anexos (4%), paniculites (1%), afecções não tumorais das mucosas (1%) e das genodermatoses (1%), tendo sido observados 6% de casos referentes a várias outras entidades não tumorais não enquadráveis nos grupos considerados.

Conclusão: Comparativamente às séries anteriormente publicadas relativas à actividade deste laboratório (referentes aos períodos compreendidos entre 1975-1980 e 1998-2007), constatou-se que o número total de exames de doenças cutâneas não tumorais tem sido progressivamente maior. Este crescimento global verificou-se em todas as categorias patológicas, com excepção das genodermatoses, relativamente às quais observou-se um decréscimo do número de exames realizado. Os dados observados consolidam o papel do Laboratório de Histopatologia Cutânea no âmbito da actividade assistencial realizada no Serviço de Dermatologia do Hospital de Santa Maria, não só pelo progressivo aumento de casuística nele processada, como também pelo maior nível de diferenciação alcançado.
Концепція системи навчання плавання студентів закладів вищої освіти
Authors: Hlukhov Ivan , Maryan Pityn
Published: April 2021

Актуальність. Нагальною науковою та прикладною проблемою сучасного фізичного виховання в закладах вищої освіти є обґрунтування системного підходу до навчання студентів плавання, що враховуватиме наявний досвід і сучасні вимоги, студентоцентризм процесу й об’єктивність критеріїв забезпечення. Мета роботи – обґрунтувати концепцію системи навчання плавання студентів закладів вищої освіти. Матеріал і методи: теоретичний аналіз та узагальнення, вивчення документальних матеріалів, соціологічні методи опитування, системний аналіз, історико-логічні методи. Результати. Ключовим чинником концепції є вхідна інформації. Вона підрозділяється на кілька елементів. Перший елемент визначається суттєвою суспільною значущістю. Більш наближеними до предмету наукового пізнання виступають суб’єктна та об’єктна значимість навчання плавання. Кожен з елементів вихідної інформації несе відповідальність за зміст і спрямованість окремих елементів на рівні системи навчання плавання студентів. Базовим блоком концепції виступає система навчання плавання студентів ЗВО. Визначена необхідність розмежування двох частин цієї системи. Перша з них (процесна) містить значну частину елементів (компонентів), які дають змогу зрозуміти сутність цієї систе- ми, друга − результатна. Підсумком концепції навчання плавання студентів ЗВО в умовах фізичного виховання є наявність вихідної інформації. Базовими функціями системи навчання плавання студентів ЗВО визначено такі: соціалізувальна, комунікативна, мотиваційна, прогресувальна, систематичності, самоствердження, оздо- ровчо-корекційна, прикладна. Спеціальними для системи навчання плавання студентів ЗВО ми вважаємо такі принципи: поліструктурності й диференційованості, відповідності та ґрунтовності, ресурсності та мотивації, індивідуальності й доцільності, динамізму та прогресування, контролю й керованості. Висновки. На теоретичному та методологічному рівні доведено можливість створення передумов навчання плавання студентів закладів вищої освіти в умовах фізичного виховання. Вони полягають в запропонованій концепції, що безпосередньо містить опис вхідної інформації, обґрунтування та характеристику системи навчання плавання студентів закладів вищої освіти (із виокремленням процесної та результатної частин) та вихідну інформацію.
Особливості організації секційних занять із фізичної культури в школі
Authors: Voitovych Iryna , Voitovych Vasyl , Petrovych Viktoriia
Published: April 2021

Актуальність. Основним завдання предмету «Фізична культура» в школі є гармонійний фізичний розвиток дітей та формування в них звички здорового способу життя. Виконання цього завдання вимагає від учителів уміння сформувати в учнів інтерес до фізичної активності, розуміння її важливості у власному житті. Цього можна досягти шляхом використання індивідуального підходу та врахування вподобань учнів під час позаурочних секційних занять, які є безкоштовними та не передбачають зміни місця навчання. Мета роботи полягає у визначенні й обґрунтуванні головних аспектів організації секційних занять із фізичної культури. Методи – аналіз і синтез наукових літературних джерел, педагогічне спостереження, узагальнення експериментальних досліджень науковців і систематизація отриманих результатів, метод теоретичного моделювання. Результати дослідження. Позакласна робота з фізичної культури вимагає значної гнучкості та мобільності форм, методі і засобів організації навчання. Вони повинні підбиратись із врахуванням інтересу та можливостей учнів і містити «вільний» час на опанування чогось нового, активного відпочинку чи вдосконалення окремих напрямів у фізичній підготовленості. На заохочення учня до цих занять можуть впливати як усвідомлені, так і неусвідомлені фізіологічні потреби, також не можна виключати зовнішніх факторів (загальносуспільні цінності, вплив друзів, батьків тощо). Важливим завданням секційної роботи є розвиток морально-вольових якостей школярів (цілеспрямованість, рішучість, сміливість, наполегливість, взаємодопомога, довіра тощо). Крім того, позаурочні заняття потрібно розглядати як засіб психологічного розвантаження, переключення уваги з буденних справ на улюблену фізичну активність, яка повинна здійснюватися якнайбільше на відкритому повітрі під керівництвом кваліфікованого педагога. Висновки. Визначено основні фактори планування та організації різних видів секційних занять; розроблено схему їх взаємодії, що формується навколо особистості учня, з урахуванням його життєвої мети та мотивації, адекватному та оптимальному підборі методів і засобів фізичного виховання.

Prenatal Sonographic Diagnosis of Meckel-Gruber Syndrome: A Case Report
Authors: EROL Seyit Ahmet , KIRBAŞ Ayşe
Published: April 2021

Aim: We report a case in which the prenatal diagnosis of Meckel Gruber (MGS) syndrome was feasible by ultrasonography in the first trimester Case report: A 26 years old woman in her second pregnancy was referred to our perinatology clinic at 13th gestational week with a suspicion of encephalocele. The fetal kidneys were hyperechogenic and enlarged, consistent with bilateral cystic dysplasia. The hands were compatible with polydactyly. According to the sonographic findings, our prenatal sonographic diagnosis was Meckel-Gruber syndrome. Conclusion: MGS is a lethal disorder. In addition, it is a pathology with a high risk of recurrence (25%) due to its autosomal recessively inheritance. Especially in families with anomaly history in previous pregnancies, early ultrasonographic evaluation and genetic counseling to be given to the family afterwards are important in management.

Published: April 2021

siprofloksasin kullanımı sonrasında gelişen enfeksiyöz komplikasyonların ve bu komplikasyonları kolaylaştıracak risk faktörlerini ortaya çıkarmaktır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Ekim 2018 ve Ekim 2020 tarihleri arasında gerçekleştirilen toplam 281 TRİB olgunun tıbbi kayıtları retrospektif olarak incelendi. Olgular profilaktik antibiyotik kullanımına göre Grup 1 (siprofloksasin grubu, n=216) ve Grup 2 (fosfomisin grubu, n=65) olmak üzere ikiye ayrıldı. Ortalama yaş, vücut kitle indeksi (VKİ), prostat spesifik antijen (PSA) düzeyi, prostat hacmi (PV), histopatolojik tanı ve sistemik enfeksiyona neden olabilecek risk faktörleri incelendi. Hastaların enfeksiyöz komplikasyonları epididimit, prostatit, pyelonefrit ya da ürosepsis kategorilerinde değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Hastalardan Grup 1 ve Grup 2’ye ayrılanların sırasıyla; ortalama yaşı 64,9±10,8 ve 64,3±7,3 yıl, VKİ 26,6±4,6 ve 27,3±3,8; total PSA düzeyleri 12,3±26,2 ve 11,9±18,4 ng/mL; PV 62,6±80,6 ve 58,9±35,4 cc idi.

Authors: Paredes Bernal Jessenia
Published: April 2021

En el ser humano el estado de ánimo puede ser normal, elevado o deprimido, el sujeto pierde la sensación de control sobre su ánimo y experimenta incomodidad general. Cuando estos se agravan se convierten en trastornos del Estado de Animo que se divide en bipolares y depresivos. La depresión es un sentimiento persistente de inutilidad, pérdida de interés por el mundo y falta de esperanza en el futuro, que modifica negativamente la funcionalidad del sujeto en ocasiones llevándolo a tomar decisiones equivocadas como el suicidio.

Abstract

In the human being, the state of mind can be normal, elevated or depressed, the subject loses the feeling of control over their mood and experiences general discomfort. When these are aggravated they become disorders of the State of Animo that is divided into bipolar and depressive. Depression is a persistent feeling of uselessness, loss of interest in the world and lack of hope in the future, which negatively modifies the functionality of the subject at times leading him to make wrong decisions such as suicide. In this study, we tried to analyze this disorder from the principles of clinical psychology and health to objectify the hopelessness, the negative expectations regarding the individual himself and his future life in 100 high school students. The results obtained allowed to observe that if there is a relationship between mood disorders and suicide attempts that were detected in the evaluation scale. In conclusion it is necessary to emphasize the importance of early detection of mood swings in adolescents can avoid suicide which is the second cause of death, according to the report of the World Health Organization.

Study Design: Mainly a multicentre, heterogenous, double‐blind, comparable‐ assemblage analysis. Setting: Department of Medicine District Head Quarter Hospital Sargodha. Period: May 2019 to October 2019. Material & Methods: Patients over eighteen years of age (Males/females) having acute diarrheal illness were entitled for this study. Patients who have symptoms of at the minimum three watery stools per 24 hours with less than two weeks duration were considered having acute diarrhea. Acetorphan (100 mg 3 times/ 24hrs), probiotics and loperamide (2 mg succeeding every loose motion) were given orally in 100 adults with moderate severe diarrhea in three different groups of patients. Treatment plus oral rehydration therapy was continued for five days or uptill recuperation, if this sprung up prior. The patients were briefed (at the day one visit) to report during the succeding visit about symptoms control. Patients were not clued-up that normal stool frequency was the main seek of the study, so there was no chance for Pygmalion effect. Results: Towards the end of study it was observed that the quantifiable accomplishment rates for loperamide, racecadotril and probiotics were 89.0%, 94.28% and 33.33% respectively. Denote diarrhea span was (16 +/-1.9h) with racecadotril, (15+/-1.1h) for loperamide and 26 +/- 4.5h) for patients using probiotics. Conclusion: In adult patients having acute diarrheal illness loperamide and racecadotril are expeditious, about equivalently effectual therapies. Probiotics are not as effective as other two drugs but have least side effects. Treatment relevant constipation was more in loperamide group as compare to two others.

Self-Identification in a Spanish barrio and a French banlieue: The Case of North African Second Generations
Authors: Eseverri-Mayer Cecilia
Published: April 2021

This comparative and qualitative research examines the types of ethnic, racial, religious, and social identification that North-African second generations adopted in a banlieue of Paris and a peripheral barrio of Madrid. Four types of self-identification were detected in the neighborhood of Les Bosquets (Paris) and three in the neighborhood of San Cristobal (Madrid). In Les Bosquets, isolation, Islamophobia and the relationships with the police give rise to a "reactive ethnicity"; a new conservative Islam gains many followers ("Muslim self-identification"); race appears for the first time as an element of self-identification ("indigenous self-identification”) and secularism has waned (“laïc self-identification”). In San Cristóbal, a significant share still feels like immigrants (“immigrant identification”); a new Spanish-Muslim generation (“hybrid self-identification”) is born, and the most vulnerable youth adopt a conservative Islam while simultaneously developing a sense of “neighborhood pride” and identification with the working class (“neighborhood identification”).
Intercultural Communication, the Influence of Trauma, and the Pursuit of Asylum in the United States
Authors: Bishop Sarah C
Published: April 2021

This project analyzes the roles of communication and culture in credible fear interviews and asylum hearings in the United States to elucidate how autobiographical testimonies enable and restrain asylum seekers in their efforts to establish themselves as deserving of protection. This work shows how trauma influences one’s ability to narrate their past and argues that culturally-bound storytelling norms negatively and unevenly threaten the outcomes of some asylum cases. I support this claim with evidence from oral history interviews with asylum seekers, immigration officers, judges, and attorneys.
