Currently, rice farming land is getting narrower because it is pressed for housing. Ways are needed to utilize narrow land to develop a rice farming system, including hydrogenic farming, which is an organic cultivation system by planting rice on humus soil in plastic cups planted in a row of paralon pipes above fish ponds, integrating a hydro system (water circulation) nutritious and organic systems (without chemical fertilizers). This Community Partnership Program aims to deal with the problems experienced by service partners, namely the Self-help Agricultural and Rural Training Center "Bengkel Mimpi" in Malang Regency which carries out hydroganic rice cultivation, namely how to obtain alternative sources of electricity so that financial expenditures for electricity can be increased. So far, only state electricity company can save more/reduce, so that the solution and output target implemented in overcoming these problems is in the form of a solar power plant which is used to drive 12 hydraulic water pumps. The method of service is action research: discussion, design and application of solar power plants. After going through technical calculations, 6 100 wp solar panels were installed, complete with support brackets, 3 100 AH batteries, 1 solar charge controller, 1 3000 WA inverter, 12 water pumps.

Thus, the qurban worship will indirectly have an impact on the socio-economic and cultural conditions of the community where the qurban worship is carried out. From the socio-economic aspect, qurban worship is not only limited to religious rituals but can also be a driving force for the community's economy, especially in the procurement of sacrificial animals. Next in the socio-cultural aspect is how qurban worship can change people's lifestyles to be simpler which is far from consumerism and excessive lifestyles. The problem that has occurred in the community is the lack of public awareness (congregations) about the wisdom of qurban worship, especially from the socio-economic and cultural aspects. This community service is carried out to increase public awareness (congregations) of the wisdom of qurban worship, especially from the socio-economic and cultural aspects.

SARS-COV-2 Neutralizing IgG Antibodies in Patients Recovered from COVID-19 in a Hospital-Based Study: From Predictions to Reality
Authors: Khan Hamzullah , Bari Fazli , Mohammad Tahir , Jan Rizwanullah
Published: February 2022

Background: The duration and immunity nature in form of antibodies to COVID-19 is still not clear. But so far we know that an immune response protects the individuals from future illness for some specific time. The presence or absence of immunity tells us about the future transmission of illness.

Objectives:

To determine the frequency of antibodies to COVID-19 after three weeks of negative PCR report.

To predict the association of the antibodies values with severity of the disease the patient had in recent past.

Material and methods: We did a cross sectional study in department of Pathology on 36 patients recovered from COVID-19 from 3rd July 2020 to 31st July 2020. Antibodies level was measured by electro-chemiluminescence immunoassay using Roche Cobas E411 Chemistry Analyzer for which commercial kits of Roche diagnostics were used as per the instructions of the manufacturer, in respondents after 3 weeks of a negative PCR report.

Results: The mean with standard deviation for numerical variables i.e. (age and antibodies) was 34+11 years and 34.52+12.71 respectively. 29(80.55%) were males and 7(19.45%) females.  The mean antibodies level was statically significantly higher in patients with age less than 50 years (p-value: 0.01). Patients who had severe symptoms at time of being reported positive by PCR had significantly higher antibodies cut off values as compared to asymptomatic positive patients (p-value:0.04). Clinically sever Covid-19 patients positively moderates with an increase in the values of the post infection anti SARS-COV-2 antibodies supported by an interaction term with (β=0.388**; ΔR²=0.126, p-value=0.02). Male gender supported by the results of an interaction term with (β=0.388**; ΔR²=0.126, p-value=0.02) had sever disease as compared to female.

Conclusion: The higher anti SARS-COV-2 antibodies were reported in patients with age <50 years and in patients who had severe symptoms or history of hospitalization during the infectious period. There was a statistically significant relationship supported by the interactions terms of higher post infection antibodies level with male gender, an increase in age and with history of sever disease or hospitalization.

Introduction: The massive number of cases with SARS-Cov-2 has put a tremendous pressure on healthcare systems all over the world. Most of the countries have declared health emergency. In these highly challenging times and also to reduce the risk of morbidity early warning signs may be helpful.6

Objective: To correlate lymphocyte count with serum ferritin levels in patients with COVID-19 admitted in the intensive care unit of a tertiary care hospital.

Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out at Fauji Foundation Hospital Rawalpindi from July 2020-December 2020. A positive COVID-19 patient was the one who had a positive real time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for SARS-CoV-2 by sampling through nasopharyngeal swabs. 3 ml of blood is taken for Blood CP in ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid containing vacutainers and was run on Sysmex-XN series. For serum ferritin 4 ml clotted blood was collected in plain test tube. Serum ferritin was performed on AXSYM system by immunoassay using AXSYM Ferritin reagent kit pack. Covid -19 disease severity classification proposed by WHO was used to categorise the patients. (WHO COVID 19 interim guidelines). 11

Results: A total of 91 patients diagnosed with covid-19 by RT-PCR testing admitted in intensive care units (severe and critical disease) were included in the study. Out of these 91 patients ;41 were males and 50 patients were females. Mean age of the patients was 61+/- 9 years. The age range was (28-75) years. The median nadir lymphocyte count was 0.2 X 10 9/L. Mean lymphocyte count was 1.1 +/- 0.2 SD. Mean Ferritin value was 1148.5 +/- 60 SD. The Pearson correlation coefficient showed an r value of -0.60 which shows a moderate negative correlation.

Conclusion: There is a significant negative correlation between lymphocyte count and serum ferritin levels

Objective: To assess the frequency of IUDs and their possible causes since the Covid-19 pandemic.Material and Methods:Study design: Cross-sectional studySetting: Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Shalamar Hospital, Medical and Dental College, Lahore, Pakistan.Duration of study: 15/03/2020 to 15/06/2020This is a cross-sectional single-center study. The relevant details about IUDs like age, parity, social status, booked status, comorbidities, and social status were entered into a Performa and the data analyzed.Results: The Intrauterine death rate from the study was 41.99 fetal deaths per 1000 live births (Total births: 643, IUDs: 27) while the mean age of the mothers was 29.67 with a minimum age of 22 years and a maximum of 37 years. According to the risk factors associated with the IUD, 11.1% had Pregnancy Induced hypertension, 11.1% had Pre-Eclampsia, 22.2% had Gestational Diabetes Mellitus and 22.2% Pregnancy Induced Hypertension and Gestational Diabetes Mellitus and 33.3% had no comorbidities. Amongst all the patients 33.3% of cases were unbooked.Conclusion: We conclude that in the last one year the fetal deaths per 1000 at Shalamar Hospital were around 28.57 per 1000 live births, during the last 3 months they gone up to 41.99 fetal deaths per 1000 live births. The leading cause(s) for IUDs in Pregnancy during the Covid-19 were pandemic Induced Hypertension and Gestational Diabetes Mellitus, which cumulatively account for 44.4% cases but 33.3% cases had no co-morbidities and still ended up in an Intra-Uterine death, which may or may not have been influenced by a Covid-19 infection. From the looks of it, Non-clinical reasons seem to have a higher probability of increasing the IUD rate but clinical effects of the Covid-19 infection can also not be ruled out completely, further studies are required into the pathogenesis and the effect of Covid-19 on pregnancy.

Background: The coronavirus disease-2019 pandemic has caused a disastrous world health crisis. The patients with renal disease, particularly those who are receiving regular dialysis therapy have elevated risk of COVID-19 infection-associated complications as well as poor prognosis including enhanced risk of hospital admission, mechanical ventilation and mortality.Objective: The objective of the study is to assess the outcomes of patients on maintenance dialysis admitted to a tertiary care hospital with COVID-19.Material and Methods: This retrospective study was performed in a Tertiary Care Hospital from March 2020 to August 2020. A total of 44 patients were included in the study. Data collected through questionnaire was analyzed using the computer software SPSS 24.0. Frequencies and percentages were calculated for categorical data while mean+SD was calculated for quantitative data.Results: Among 44 patients, 63.6% were males and the mean age was 46.86+12.413 years. Mean number of dialysis were 3.57+2.214. The mean ferritin level was 2067.05+788.412 ng/ml and mean C-reactive protein level was 111.59+32.998 mg/L. Among these patients, 65.9% were discharged and 34.1% patients expired.Conclusion: Study concluded that elevated levels of inflammatory markers such as ferritin and CRP are found among patients on maintenance dialysis with COVID-19.

Abstract:

Background:

Since the emergence of COVID-19 in Wuhan, China, it has claimed many lives and global economic losses. Healthcare workers have been the most exposed group in this pandemic. This study aims to determine the prevalence of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies among the employees of Islamabad Medical and Dental College and its allied hospital Akbar Niazi Teaching Hospital.

Methodology:

All members of the staff and faculty of Islamabad Medical and Dental College and allied hospital Akbar Niazi Teaching Hospital were encouraged to get tested for SARS-CoV-2 antibodies and 294 employees volunteered for the study from 23rd July to 30th July,2020 through Elecsys® Anti-SARS-CoV-2 (Immunoassay for the qualitative detection of IgG antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in human serum and plasma).

Results:

Out of 284 volunteers, 87 (30.6%) were SARS-CoV-2 antibody positive, with the mean antibody level in seropositive individuals recorded as 24.4418 ± 25.3494. , housekeeping and sanitary workers were the most affected; 14 (48.3%) were antibody positive, while 15 (51.7%) were antibody negative. After housekeeping and sanitary staff, the second most affected workers were lab technicians (37.1% were positive compared to 62.9% negative). Fever, loss of taste or smell and breathing difficulty were the most significantly associated symptoms with COVID-19 antibody seroprevalence as suggested by the p values 0.003, 0.004 and 0.032 respectively. Out of the 13 PCR positive participants (in the preceding 3 months) 10 (76.9%) showed positive antibody in their serum and 3 (23.1%) had not developed antibodies.

Conclusion:

Seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies was estimated to be high among the healthcare staff (30.6%), with the housekeeping and sanitary staff to be the most affected employees, probably due to the breach of personal protection. Fever, loss of taste or smell and breathing were strongly associated with seropositivity of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies.
