Authors: Wu Shao Jun , Cha Su Na , Abbas Yasir , Zhao Zhi Yong , Hou Hong Liang , Xue Xiang
Published: September 2022

In this study, carbon nanotube films, densifying with ethanol/water, acetone/water, acetic acid/water, sulfuric acid/water with volume rate of 4:1 and following rolling process, were manufactured. Afterwards, the electrothermal, mechanical properties and performance stability of these carbon nanotube films were investigated, along with mechanism analysis. Based on our investigations, the ability of rapid electrothermal response within 5 second, higher steady-state temperature of above 120~160°C at low input voltages of 5V, excellent cycling stability of electrical heating are reported by the aforementioned methods, revealing better outcome as compared with previous reports of congeneric carbon nanotube films. The electrothermal and mechanical properties of treated carbon nanotube films were superior to carbon nanotube film pressed from carbon nanotube aerosol, and the best outcomes could be synchronously achieved at an immersion of 0.5h in solvents and rolling. The consequences, which are attributable to treatments by the first three mixed solvents as well as rolling, were similar, however, the electrical and electrothermal properties of carbon nanotube film treated with sulfuric acid/water and rolling were significantly improved comparative to others due to p-type doping and purification, which could enhance the electrical conductivity of carbon nanotube film, while the mechanical property was not degraded compared to films treated by other ways. Particularly, electrical and mechanical properties of carbon nanotube films were unchanged through repeated electrical heating owing to the stability of their structure and morphology, which contributed to exceedingly stable electrothermal property and established foundation for application as heater with long-term stability. Lastly, we have also proposed the mechanism concerning performance stability of electrical heating film.

Authors: Zeid Montasser Mohamed , Mahmoud Amina Amal , Khalil Mohamed Yehia , Elkohly Noha Mohamed
Published: September 2022

Background

Vascular access-related infections (VARI) represent a substantial burden for patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD) that is unfortunately inevitable. The spectrum of causative organisms varies between different regions and centers, so it is necessary for each dialysis unit to have its database. This prospective descriptive multicenter study was conducted over a 6-month duration to delineate the pattern of VARI among patients undergoing HD units of Alexandria University Hospitals, and to determine the possible relationship between VARI, type of vascular access, pattern of causative organisms, and various risk factors.

Materials and methods

The study enrolled all patients with documented clinical and bacteriological evidence of VARI. Infection incidence-rate event/1000 dialysis session (ds) was calculated.

Results

During the study period, 877 HD patients were approached. A total of 66 VARI episodes were identified in 62 patients, with 58 bloodstream infection (BSI) episodes and 8 local-access infections, with an overall incidence rate of 4.64/1000 ds. About 64% of isolated organisms were Gram-negative bacilli, 33.3% Gram-positive cocci, and 2.8% fungi. The most frequent isolated pathogens were Klebsiella pneumonia, Escherichia coli, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).

Conclusion

VARI rate was higher in HD patients with temporary central venous catheter compared with permanent tunneled catheters. Gram-negative microorganisms and MRSA were the most frequent identified organisms. Creation of arteriovenous fistula should not be delayed to avoid the use of temporary catheters, which carry high risk of VARI.

Authors: Adegbehingbe Olugbenga Olumide , Asaleye Christianah Mopelola , Kolawole Babatope Ayodeji , Adegbehingbe Anthonia Adenike
Published: September 2022

Background:

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease process affecting millions of people worldwide. Its prevalence is forecasted to reach a value of 7.7% by 2030. It carries severe morbidities and even mortality. Hyperglycemia and increased formation of advanced glycosylation end products causes the majority of soft tissue changes seen among diabetics. The effects are observed particularly in the heel pad and plantar fascia where thinning or thickening, fibre disorganization, calcification and hypoechoic foci are among the changes seen.

Methods:

This cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out at the Department of Radiology, OAUTHC, Ile Ife, Osun state, Southwest Nigeria. 40 years old and above subjects with Type 2 diabetes mellitus were recruited from the diabetic clinic of the institution and Ultrasound evaluation of the heel fat pad and plantar fascia were subsequently performed for those who met the criteria using ultrasound machine equipped with a 7.5- 12.0 MHz high frequency linear array transducer.

Results:

The mean heel pad thickness on the right feet was greater than that of the left in the study subjects. There was statistical significant difference in the heel fat pad thickness of diabetic subjects and the control group, in both feet. (P=0.000). The heel pad thickness is higher in diabetic subject than in non-diabetic control subjects. However, there was no statistical significant difference in the right and left heel fat pad thickness of the participants of this study (P value 0.6062). Only HPT was a statistically significant predictor of foot ulcers among other variables after binary regression was computed. Using Spearman's rank correlation to test the relationship between the BMI of diabetic subjects and mean heel pad thickness, it revealed a moderate positive correlation, with good statistically significance (Spearman's rho = 0.4397, P=0.0000). The relationship between the BMI of diabetic subjects and mean plantar fascia thickness showed a weak positive correlation, with good statistical significance (Spearman's rho = 0.2635, P=0.0008).

Conclusion:

The duration of diabetes mellitus did not determine the heel pad thickness and plantar fascia thickness. The findings in the study suggested that history of foot ulcer in the diabetic predispose them to have reduce HPT and further foot ulcers. Sonographic measurement of heel pad thickness can therefore be an additional imaging modality to evaluate and be used in the management of the diabetic patients' feet.
Submental Ectopic Thyroid in a Patient with an Orthotopic Thyroid Gland
Authors: Mak Chee-Wai
Published: September 2022

Ectopic thyroid is a rare clinical disease, with the majority of the patient presented with hypo-functional thyroid tissue and absence of orthotopic thyroid gland. During embryogenesis, the thyroid gland descends from the foramen cecum to its normal position located below the larynx and hyoid bone, anterior to the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th tracheal cartilaginous rings. Any defect that occurs during this period will result in ectopic thyroid. Hence, ectopic thyroid is usually found along the course of the thyroglossal duct, laterally in submandibular glands and even in distant places such as mediastinum or very rarely in sub-diaphragmatic organs. However, the presence of an orthotoptic thyroid may lead some difficulties in the diagnosis of this disease; hence, fine-needle aspiration is recommended to avoid unnecessary operation provided the patient is asymptomatic.

Authors: Akça H , Akça HŞ , Yapıcı N
Published: September 2022

Background:

To identify individuals with an increased mortality and morbidity risk after surgery, different parameters showing impaired tissue perfusion/oxygenation have been investigated, and the balance between tissue oxygen consumption and oxygen delivery has been evaluated in detecting organ failure.

Aim:

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of central venous–-arterial partial carbon dioxide difference (ΔPCO2) and lactate (ΔLAC) values within the first week after discharge in predicting mortality in patients undergoing open-heart surgery.

Patients and Methods:

A total of 102 patients between February and April 2020 were included in the study. The patients' data obtained at the end of cardiopulmonary bypass (hour 0) and during the intensive care follow-up (hour 1, hours 6, and 24) data were prospectively recorded. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS v. 22.0 for Windows (SPSS Inc, Chicago, IL, USA).

Results:

The mean age of the patients was 56.88 ± 11.02 (min 18–max 78) years, and 71.6% of the patients were male. It was observed that the area under the curve was not significant for the four measurements performed for ΔLAC. Although the area under the curve of ΔPCO2 measured at hour 6 (0.66) was significant.

Conclusion:

The ΔPCO2 were found to have a poor ability to predict the development of complications during the intensive care and early postoperative period in patients undergoing open-heart surgery.

Authors: Bildaci YD , Bulut H , Elcioglu OC , Gursu M , Kazancioglu R
Published: September 2022

Background:

Diabetes mellitus is the most well-known and common cause of end-stage renal disease. Excessive inflammatory processes were hypothesized to be one of the reasons for progression to end-stage disease. Even though progression to end stage disease tried to be prevented with some dietary measures such as lowering nitrogen in diet, none of the methods tried were successful enough.

Aims:

In our study, we aimed to determine the effects of alfa keto analog use in altering levels of inflammatory markers when added to dietary program in a diabetic rat model.

Patients and Methods:

The study was performed on 22 male Sprague Dawley rats with streptozocine induced diabetic nephropathy. Both groups were fed with low protein diet except for study group with added alfa keto analogs. Biochemical values and inflammatory markers were studied with ELISA assay.

Results:

Significant difference in serum albumin was found between study group and control group following administration of alfa keto analogs (p <.001). Also mentioned dietary modification made a significant difference in suppression of inflammatory reactions for interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, IL-10, IL-18 and tumor necrosis factor-α.

Conclusion:

Adding keto amino acids to diets that are already low on protein, can slow progression to end-stage renal disease by reducing inflammation and protein loss in an animal model.

Authors: Usman AB , Emmanuel P , Namuya NP , Manchan DB , Dahiru AMC , Raheem N , Usman AU , Hirayama K
Published: September 2022

Dyke-Davidoff-Masson Syndrome (DDMS) is a rare clinical condition in which atrophy or hypoplasia of one cerebral hemisphere occurs secondary to brain insult during fetal or early childhood, which results in variable clinical manifestations like hemiparesis, seizures, expressive aphasia, and mental retardation. This rare entity mainly presents in childhood and is unusual in adults. DDMS is a rare cause of epilepsy and should be considered and excluded in cases of refractory seizures. Few cases have been reported from a developing nation like Nigeria but not from the north-eastern part of Nigeria to the best of our knowledge. Though fewer specialists exist in Adamawa State, efforts to train more specialists and education of medical officers to manage this rare case need to be strengthened. Herein is a case of an adolescent boy with recurrent generalized tonic-clonic convulsions complicated by left-sided hemiparesis, expressive aphasia, and mental age equivalent of a six-year-old by the Goodenough draw-a-person test. Found to be obese with Body Mass Index (BMI) of 29 kg/m2 (Z-score >2 Standard deviation SD), microcephaly, Occipito-frontal Circumference (OFC) of 45 cm (Z-score > −3 SD), spastic left-sided hemiplegia and hemiplegic gait. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain showed hyper-intensity in the right cerebral hemisphere, extensive atrophy of the right cerebral hemisphere involving the ipsilateral fronto-temporoparietal lobes, cerebral peduncle, and a contralateral megalencephaly, ipsilateral lateral ventricular dilatation, hypertrophic calvarium, hyperpneumatization of sphenoidal sinuses and midline shift due to loss of volume on the right. A diagnosis of Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome was made; the patient did well on carbamazepine and physiotherapy. Caregivers were counseled, and the patient was discharged home and is currently on a follow-up visit.
Effects of intraoperative hemodynamic instability on postoperative adverse outcomes in patients with cardiovascular comorbidities undergoing noncardiac surgery − an observational study
Authors: Das Priyanka , C. Murugesan
Published: September 2022

Background and aims

Cardiovascular diseases, especially coronary artery disease, have become an epidemic in India. There are a significant number of asymptomatic cases that are not diagnosed until an invasive intervention is required. The presence of such cardiac comorbidities may in turn lead to intraoperative hemodynamic changes in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery under general or regional anesthesia. This prospective observational study was designed to register and compare the incidence of intraoperative cardiovascular events of variation in heart rate and blood pressure in relation to postoperative adverse outcomes in patients with cardiac comorbidities undergoing noncardiac surgery. The statistical analysis was performed by SPSS 23.0 version.

Patients and methods

A total of 200 patients of American Society of Anesthesiologists grades II, III, and IV having known cardiovascular comorbidities posted for elective noncardiac surgical procedures under general/regional anesthesia were closely monitored for any intraoperative hemodynamic disturbances, namely, variations in heart rate and blood pressure. After the completion of surgery, the patients were followed up during the immediate postoperative period for up to 72 h for documenting any postoperative adverse outcomes.

Results

In this study, preexisting hypertensive heart disease and intraoperative hypotension emerged as independent predictors for postoperative adverse outcomes, whereas the most common postoperative adverse outcome was acute kidney injury.

Conclusion

Meticulous risk stratification of patients preoperatively may help guide decisions on adequate perioperative management, thus reducing untoward adverse events.

Authors: Beza Lemlem , Alemayehu Bekele , Addissie Adamu , Azazh Aklilu , Gary Rebecca
Published: September 2022

BACKGROUND: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a lifethreatening condition. The mortality rate will be reduced if immediate treatment is provided. Patients' awareness of ACS is limited, so they do not seek help as quite often as they should. The level of treatment seeking behavior and associated factors among ACS patients admitted to three hospitals in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, were assessed using a health belief model.METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 330 ACS patients from November 2019 to December 2020. Sociodemographic and clinical variables data were extracted using pre-tested checklist. The outcome and other variables data were collected using the checklist and structured questionnaire. The data were entered into Epi-data 3.1 and exported to STATA 17.1 for analysis. Descriptive statistics relevant to the variable wasperformed. A multivariable logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with treatment seeking behavior.RESULTS: This study revealed that the mean time from symptom onset to arrival at the emergency unit (EU) was 24 ± 19.5 hours, slightly < half of the participants (n=149, 45.1 %) had adequate treatment seeking behavior. Perceived threat (AOR=1.03,95% CI:1.01-1.06, p=0.002), perceived benefits (AOR=1.09, 95%CI: 1.02-1.0, p≤0.001), self-efficacy (AOR=1.16, 95% CI :1.01- 1.22, p≤ 0.001), education (AOR=2.2,95%CI:1.31-3.9, p≤0.01) selfautonomy (AOR=3.1,95%CI:1.82-5.4, p<.001) and no depression (AOR=1.9,95%CI:1.1-3.3, p≤0.05) were found to have significantly association with adequate treatment seeking behavior.CONCLUSION: This study indicates, less than half of ACS patients had adequate treatment seeking behavior. Thus, contextspecific behavioral interventions, along with public awareness campaigns about ACS, should be implemented.

Authors: Jadidi Ali , Ameri Farzad
Published: September 2022

BACKGROUND: Social support is known as an affection-oriented coping mechanism when a person is involved with cancer. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the relationship between family social support and the meaning of life in women with breast cancer.METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, 84 women with a mean age of 60 (SD = 5.7) years with breast cancer who were admitted to a teaching hospital participated. Data were collected using social support and meaning of life questionnaires. After collecting the completed questionnaires and entering the data into the computer, the analysis was performed using SPSS software and using t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson correlation test at a significant level of 0.01.RESULTS: The mean score of their social support was 39.35 ± 9.51, respectively and the meaning of life was 29.5 ± 7.49. ANOVA results indicated that the social support score and meaning of life had no significant relationship with any of the demographic variables. Also, the findings suggest that there is a statistically significant correlation between social support and the meaning of life (r = 0.773, P < 0.001).CONCLUSION: It is proposed to increase the level of social support from the family to help improve the meaning of life in cancer patients.

Rabbit meat: valuable nutrition or too-cute-to-eat?
Authors: Leroy Frédéric , Petracci Massimiliano
Published: September 2022

Rabbit meat is a component of traditional diets, often incorporated into iconic dishes of regional cuisine. Its consumption can be traced back to the ancient civilisations of the Mediterranean and beyond, well into the Palaeolithic era. Even though it has been representing considerable nutritional and cultural value for millennia, a decline in consumption is now noticeable. Specific categorial dynamics are at play, related to the various superimposed roles of rabbits as livestock, game, pests, laboratory animals and pets. Their perceived cuteness in particular can lead to emotional responses that are hard to reconcile with the sensitivities of the post-domestic paradigm. Such effects compromise the acceptability of rabbit meat in contemporary Western societies that are typified by problematic human-animal interactions and a disconnect from the food chain. Young and urban populations in particular now seem to have difficulties facing the notion that food production requires the killing of animals. As a result, a traditional food source risks becoming irrelevant despite its high nutritional value and potential for sustainable meat production, due to reasons that are emotive rather than rational.
A relação entre temperatura e a infestação pelo mosquito Aedes aegypti, o caso de Montes Claros-MG
Authors: Fonseca Diego de Sousa Ribeiro , Garcia Ricardo Alexandrino
Published: September 2022

A proposta deste estudo é examinar a correspondência da infestação pelo mosquito Aedes aegypti, através do Índice Breteau, por bairros, no período entre 2015 a 2017, com a temperatura de superfície estimada (TSE) da cidade Montes Claros-MG. Certas investigações apontam as questões hidroclimáticas como as que mais corroboram para intensificação larvária do inseto proposto. A metodologia consistiu na aquisição e organização dos dados relativos ao Índice Breteau do referido mosquito; a geração da imagem com a temperatura de superfície estimada da cidade; e o exame, com a aplicação da regressão linear múltipla, da associação de tais variáveis. Por meio dos resultados foi verificado que o modelo empregado (p < 0,01 e R² = 0,83) foi significativo, e as variáveis mais explicativas para o Índice Breteau de 2017, sejam - o Índice Breteau de 2016 (p < 0,01) e o desvio-padrão (p < 0,03) das temperaturas. Conclui-se que há ligação entre a maior infestação larvária pelo mosquito Aedes aegypti com as áreas onde existem maiores picos de calor.
Mulheres, cota de gênero e poder legislativo: uma abordagem das justificativas do Projeto de Lei nº 1.256/2019 sob o viés do liberalismo igualitário de John Rawls
Authors: Salles Victória Taglialegna , Bomfim Rainer , Bahia Alexandre Gustavo Melo Franco de Moraes
Published: September 2022

Sob a vertente de interpretação jurídico-teórica, analisa-se as justificativas arguidas no Projeto de Lei nº 1.256/2019, que tem por objeto a revogação do § 3º, do art. 10, da Lei nº 9.504, de 30 de setembro de 1997, que dispõe sobre a cota de gênero obrigatória nas eleições proporcionais. À luz do liberalismo igualitário de John Rawls, identifica-as como contrárias aos princípios de justiça, no exercício da razão pública, e como não razoáveis em face do pluralismo moral, das garantias previstas na Constituição da República Federativa do Brasil de 1988 e da Convenção para a Eliminação de Todas as Formas de Discriminação contra a Mulher. Compreende o dever do poder público de promover a igualdade de oportunidades das mulheres, diante dos fundamentos constitucionais e dos direitos básicos. Verifica-se que o Poder Legislativo é o principal responsável por descumprir a cota de gênero, embora parte dele esteja comprometida com a legislação eleitoral vigente. Ao final, ressalta a importância da sociedade em cooperação exigir seu cumprimento, de se pensar a reprodução dos papeis de gênero e o voto, para fomentar autonomia das mulheres. Este trabalho justifica-se pela urgência de se alterar a sub-representação nos espaços de poder e pelos princípios constitucionais.
