Published: June 2024

Background: Nursing students frequently encounter burnout, a state potentially jeopardizing their academic and subsequent professional trajectory.
Aim: To examine how demographic attributes are associated with burnout levels among nursing students, emphasizing variations across Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) subscales.
Methods: In 2022, 159 nursing students from the Faculty of Health Studies Rijeka, Croatia, were assessed for burnout using a cross-sectional approach. Burnout was measured using the Maslach Burnout Inventory Human Services Survey and a general questionnaire collecting demographic details.
Results: Among female students, 57.1% reported 'high' emotional exhaustion, compared to 36% of male students, though this difference was not statistically significant. In the age group of 18-25 years, a pronounced 60.2% experienced 'high' emotional exhaustion, which diminished with age. Significant differences emerged based on study type; 61.3% of full-time students displayed heightened emotional exhaustion compared to 46.2% of part-time students (p=0.028). Regarding marital status, single students showed increased emotional exhaustion, while married counterparts had reduced burnout levels, with married participants exhibiting statistically significantly lower overall burnout levels (p=0.034). These findings underscore the importance of addressing burnout in critical and intensive care nursing, highlighting the need for targeted strategies to manage burnout among future professionals in these high-stress areas.
Conclusion: Burnout among nursing students is distinctly associated with demographics, particularly age, study type, and marital status. Tailored interventions targeting specific student groups may prove beneficial in addressing burnout.

Published: June 2024

Bu makalede, 2024 yılında Türkiye’de iktidarda yirmi üçüncü yılını tamamlayan Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi’nin (AKP), “kültürel iktidar” meselesi incelenmektedir. Siyasal alanda iktidar olunmasına rağmen kültürel alanda iktidar olunamadığı tespitinden hareket eden bu mesele, siyasal alandaki iktidarı kültürel alana taşıma, politikada olduğu gibi külltürde de kendi ilkelerini hâkim kılma arzusunu ifade etmektedir. AKP’nin kültürel iktidar arzsusu, açıklayıcı evrenini, referans çerçevesi dindar muhafazakâr olan AKP’nin, Türkiye’nin laik modernleşme tarafından belirlenmiş yakın tarihinde kendi siyasi pozisyonunu sağlamlaştırma sürecinde bulmaktadır. AKP, yerini ve konumunu sağlamlaştırma yolunda Cumhuriyet’in laik modernizmi ile baş etmek durumundaydı. Bunu başarabildiği oranda ideolojisini toplum içinde yayabilme imkânı buluyordu. Kültürel iktidar arzusu, siyasal alanda kendinden ve iktidarından emin olmuş dindar muhafazakârlığın kültürel alanı domine etmeye yönelik hamleleri olarak anlam kazanmıştır. AKP’nin birincil hedefi iktidarda kalmaktı. Toplumsal dünyanın (ekonomi, politika, hukuk, sağlık, eğitim vs) bütün alanlarında olduğu gibi kültürel alandaki bütün söylem ve politikalarının ana kaynağı ve temel amacı da bunun ideolojik koşullarını yaratabilmekti.

Published: June 2024

Data safety and security have become threatening issues in the health industry. Against this backdrop, blockchain technology has opened up a new window for healthcare stakeholders. This research aims to enhance the understanding of the factors that influence user satisfaction and actual use behavior of blockchain technology in the electronic health sector in Bangladesh. A convenience sampling collected primary data (270 responses) from nurses, doctors, emergency staff, and laboratory technicians. AMOS and SPSS were used for analysis. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, assessing normality, common method bias, validity, reliability test and regression weight analysis. The findings of this study reveal that the task characteristics, performance expectancy, information quality, and service quality of blockchain are significantly related to end-user satisfaction. Performance expectancy had the greatest weighted influence on satisfaction. End-user satisfaction reflects strong usage behavior towards blockchain technology in Bangladesh. Surprisingly, system quality does not substantially affect user satisfaction derived from blockchain technology. This study analyzes the most critical predictors of satisfaction evoked by using blockchain, particularly relevant to the context of Least Developed Countries (LDCs), such as Bangladesh. To our knowledge, limited studies have yet examined user satisfaction and actual use behavior through the lens of IS success, Task Technology Fit (TTF), and UTAUT models in Bangladesh's e-health sector. This study is anticipated to provide an opportunity for additional investigation into the potential uses of blockchain in the medical field and other commercial sectors.

Curcuma flour and black garlic have potential benefits for chicken digestive health. A healthy digestive tract will help the process of absorbing feed more optimally. This research aimed to evaluate the potential of curcuma flour and black garlic in feed on small intestine morphometrics, carcass weight, and abdominal fat in broiler chickens. The study used 200 broiler chicken day-old chicks (DOC) randomly assigned to 5 treatments with 4 replications, including P0 = 100% commercial ratio (control), P1 = P0 + 2% black garlic, P2 = P1 plus 0.25% curcuma flour, P3 = P1 + 0.50% curcuma flour, and P4 = P1 + 0.75% curcuma flour. The study employed a completely randomized design (CRD), and the data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA). Significant differences between treatments were further tested using Duncan’s Multiple Range Test. The results showed that supplementation with Curcuma flour and black garlic in feed did not have a significant effect (P>0.05) on feed consumption, slaughter weight, small intestine morphometrics, carcass weight, carcass percentage, abdominal fat weight, and abdominal fat percentage. The results of this study indicate that the evaluation of Curcuma flour up to 0.75% and black garlic 2% in broiler chicken feed does not affect the activity of the small intestine, broiler carcass, and abdominal fat, as reflected in normal organ weights.

Poultry manure has the potential to be used as a feed ingredient because it has a high enough protein and amino acid with less growth of patoghenic microorganism. The improvement of poultry manure as pellet can help to increase the palatability and feed storaging. This study aimed to determine the influence of different binders on the chemical and physical attributes of pellets derived from fermented poultry manure. Three binders, namely tapioca flour (T1), wheat flour (T2), and cassava flour (T3), were utilized in the fermentation process, with the fermented poultry manure. A 10% binder was added into the mixture, which was subsequently processed using a pelletizer. Each treatment was replicated three times, with each replication requiring 1500 g of the pellet mixture. Laboratory analyses were conducted to evaluate chemical quality through proximate analysis and gross energy assessment, while physical quality analyses included physical characteristics, measurements of diameter, length, and density, stacking density, stack compaction density, pellet durability index (PDI), modulus of uniformity, modulus of fineness, buoyancy, and water resistance. The results indicated that variations in binders did not yield numerically differences in dry matter content, organic matter, crude fat, crude fiber, and gross energy. Notably, pellets containing a wheat flour binder exhibited the highest crude protein content numerically. Furthermore, influenced the buoyancy test, with wheat flour binder showing the best buoyancy. This study recommends the adoption of wheat flour as a binder in the production of pellets based on fermented poultry manure.

RESUMO
Este artigo examina o tráfico de pessoas a partir das abordagens e atendimentos realizados na cidade de Foz do Iguaçu. Descreve-se o contexto do delito nas atuações das forças de segurança, migrações e marcos regulatórios, com uma classificação definida em âmbito internacional pelo Protocolo de Palermo, ratificado no Brasil através da Lei do Tráfico de Pessoas. O objetivo é analisar e comparar as abordagens e identificação das vítimas e autores do delito, e atendimentos aos migrantes, sob o viés do enfrentamento ao tráfico de pessoas, ainda assim, contribuir para a elaboração de políticas públicas para tal. Apresenta-se também o histórico do enfrentamento na tríplice fronteira do Brasil, Paraguai e Argentina, descreve a estrutura de órgãos atuantes e colaboradores, destacando a atividade e primordialidade de ações conjuntas, além de relacionar os registros dos atendimentos ao fluxo fronteiriço, e sua condição de facilitador do tráfico humano. Discute-se ainda as diretrizes do III Plano Nacional de Enfrentamento ao Tráfico de Pessoas para as fronteiras brasileiras. O estudo baseia-se em informações de artigos científicos, seminários, legislação vigente, doutrina referente ao tema Tráfico de Pessoas ,registros obtidos em atendimentos policiais e visita pessoal à Casa do Migrante de Foz do Iguaçu, cuja ação precípua é suporte e atendimento das populações em migração nas fronteiras brasileiras. Conclui-se destacando a escassez de dados e a vulnerabilidade da tríplice fronteira no contexto do tráfico de pessoas, um crime em crescente expansão internacional que, lamentavelmente, permanece quase invisível no contexto social.
A comprehensive study on: Allopathy and herbal therapy on breast cancer

Published: June 2024

Without a question, the two most significant biological targets for breast cancer are HER2 and CDK4/6. Anti-HER2 therapies improve overall survival, progression-free/disease-free survival, and objective response. Overall survival statistics are still pending, but three CDK4/6 inhibitors regularly increase progression-free survival and objective response. There is still a need for better endocrine therapies and chemotherapy optimisation. Particularly for triple-negative breast cancer, check point inhibitor-based immunotherapy in conjunction with chemotherapy is a promising area.

Published: June 2024

Stem cell treatment, an important part of regenerative medicine that may change the way many illnesses and injuries are treated in the future. This review article gives an in-depth analysis of the many kinds of stem cells, including adult, induced pluripotent, and embryonic stem cells, as well as their background, properties, and potential for differentiation. Successful hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, tissue engineering, medications for neurological illnesses, and management of autoimmune diseases are only a few of the current applications of stem cells in therapy that we explore. The report also discusses cutting-edge techniques in stem cell research, such as 3D bioprinting, the game-changing CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing approach, and the manipulation of stem cells using tiny chemicals. However, there are several obstacles on the road to stem cell treatment. We explain how ethical concerns, immunological rejection, and tumorigenicity have influenced public opinion. Future developments in stem cell therapy will be discussed, including the role of stem cell banking, tissue engineering, personalized medicine, and artificial intelligence. In conclusion, despite substantial progress, barriers still need to be eliminated before stem cell treatment can realize its promise to fundamentally alter regenerative medicine.

Published: June 2024

This study investigates the impact of socio-economic status, occupation of the head of the family, and education of the head of the family on adolescents' knowledge of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Adolescents often face knowledge gaps regarding STDs, increasing their risk of infection and adverse health outcomes. Addressing these gaps through targeted educational interventions is crucial for promoting safer sexual practices and improving adolescent health. Using a quasi-experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design, this study assessed sixty adolescents from 1st and 2nd Pre-University (PU) classes at NSVK PU College, Bangalore, selected via convenience sampling. Data were collected using a demographic proforma, including socio-economic status, occupation, and education of the head of the family. A structured questionnaire evaluated baseline STD knowledge. A planned teaching program on STDs covered transmission modes, symptoms, prevention, and treatment. The effectiveness of the intervention was measured by comparing pre-test and post-test scores, with statistical analysis confirming significant knowledge improvements. The analysis showed that socio-economic status, occupation, and education of the head of the family critically influenced knowledge acquisition. Adolescents from families with higher socio-economic status, more educated heads, and professional occupations exhibited greater knowledge improvement. These results highlight the importance of considering socio-economic factors when designing educational programs to increase STD awareness among adolescents. Tailored interventions addressing the specific needs of different demographic groups are essential to reduce STD incidence and promote healthier behaviours.
Innovative sanitation solutions: evaluating the performance of faecal sludge treatment plant in humanitarian settings: A case study from Rohingya camps in Bangladesh
Authors: Mohammad Ali  , Tanzima Shahreen
Published: June 2024

The Rohingya crisis has precipitated one of the most significant humanitarian emergencies, resulting in over 900,000 refugees residing in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh. The rapid influx of refugees has posed substantial challenges in providing essential services, particularly sanitation, in a densely populated and resource-constrained environment. This study examines the performance of faecal sludge treatment plants (FSTPs) implemented in the Rohingya camps, focusing on key performance indicators such as treatment efficiency, operational challenges, health outcomes, and resource recovery potential. Analysis reveals that FSTPs have played a crucial role in reducing pathogen levels in treated sludge, thereby mitigating the risk of waterborne diseases and environmental contamination. Despite these successes, operational challenges such as frequent desludging, infrastructure maintenance, and the logistical complexities of waste collection and transport persist. The study highlights the importance of addressing these challenges through regular maintenance, infrastructure upgrades, and innovative logistical solutions. Health outcomes have shown improvement with a reduction in sanitation-related diseases, underscoring the health benefits of effective FSTP implementation. Additionally, resource recovery from treated sludge presents a sustainable approach, with potential applications in agriculture and energy production. Community engagement has emerged as a critical factor in the success of these interventions. Effective community involvement in the planning, implementation, and maintenance of sanitation facilities has been instrumental in ensuring their acceptance and proper use. The study emphasizes the need for continued community education and participation to sustain these benefits. In conclusion, while FSTPs have significantly improved sanitation conditions in the Rohingya camps, ongoing efforts are required to enhance operational efficiency, address logistical challenges, and foster community involvement. The findings provide valuable insights for the design and implementation of innovative sanitation solutions in similar humanitarian settings worldwide.
