The article analyzes the state of the Russian labor market in 2023, and also examines the main trends, including the shortage of personnel, the need to implement measures to retain highly qualified specialists in companies, the growth of the average age ofthe applicant, the demand for knowledge of Asian languages and skills to work with modern digital solutions, and others. Based on a comparison of 2022 and 2023, an increase in vacancies on popular job search platforms was re-vealed, and the areas most in need of personnel were identified. Using the example of the IT-industry, the required soft and hard skills for specialists in the most popular positions are analyzed. As a result of the work carried out, recommendations were formulated for universities aimed at improving the career preparation of students. Salaries by industry are considered, where the sharpest jump in the IT sector can be identified, starting in 2021. The paper analyzes the most popular areas of university educational programs, and one of the most popular areas was chosen to analyze the competencies formed in them: “Information Technology” at Lomonosov Moscow State University. As a result of the work carried out, recommendations were formulated for universities aimed at improving the career preparation of students The research's novelty rests in its comprehensive approach to the study of the gap between the requirements for university graduates and the requirements of the labor re-sources market, in order to develop practical recommendations for overcoming it. The authors em-phasize the need for further research into the imbalance in higher education and the labor resources market, including in the IT sector, which holds strategic importance in fostering an innovative econ-omy and the realization of goals for Russia’s technological sovereignty.

Effective management of logistics processes in an environment of rapid change is becoming a prerequisite for increasing the competitiveness of enterprises and improving customer service. The purpose of the article is to identify the features of digital transformation in logistics using digital twin technologies, as well as the advantages that such transformations can give us. Digital twins provide the ability to manage physical assets such as warehouses, equipment, and vehicles optimally to improve resource utilization and reduce costs. The research methodology is based on a systematic approach used in the analysis of complex economic systems, and uses general scientific methods of cognition: analysis, comparison, logical reasoning, fact collection, synthesis, as well as a structural approach. The features of data exchange between the logistics system and its digital twin are dis-cussed. The barriers that the implementation of digital transformation of logistics and the use of digital twins currently face are considered, and approaches to overcome these barriers are proposed. Digital twins have been shown to be a powerful tool that can be used to model and analyze logistics processes, allowing logistics companies to improve their performance, reduce risks and improve cus-tomer service. It is concluded that, in the long term, the efforts invested in the implementation of these technologies can increase the productivity and competitiveness of companies significantly in the modern digital economy. Directions for further research should be related to the analysis of suc-cessful experience in implementing the digital transformation of logistics using digital twins and the proposal of frameworks for optimizing efforts and costs during their implementation.

Published: September 2024

Методом гравиметрического анализа построены изотермы адсорбции N,N,N’,N’-тетраоктилдигликольамида (ТОДГА) на трех марках сверхсшитого полистирола (ССП) в среде сверхкритического СО2. Показано, что в равных условиях (Т=313 K,Р=20 МПа) ССП марок MN200 и MN202 адсорбируют до 0,55 и 0,59 ммоль/г ТОДГА, соответственно, что позволяет использовать их в качестве носителя рассматриваемого лиганда. Адсорбция ТОДГА на MN270 в аналогичных условиях не превышала 0,07 ммоль/г. Проведена оценка влияния температуры и плотности среды на адсорбцию ТОДГА на MN200. Показано, что снижение плотности СО2 в изотермических условиях позволяет увеличить предельную адсорбцию ТОДГА. Твердый экстрагент (ТВЭКС), полученный на основе MN200 и ТОДГА, проявил заметные экстракционные свойства по отношению к соединениям Nd3+. Образец ТВЭКС на основе MN202 оказался неактивным в экстракции, что, вероятно, связано с небольшим размером пор матрицы, недостаточным для процесса образования комплекса.

In this study, the adsorption isotherms of N,N,N’,N’-tetraoctyl diglycolamide (TODGA) on three types of hypercrosslinked polystyrene (HCP) in supercritical CO2 were measured by gravimetric analysis. It is shown that under equal conditions (T = 313.15 K, P = 20 MPa), MN200 and MN202 HCPs adsorb up to 0.55 mmol/g and 0.59 mmol/g TODGA respectively, which allows them to be applied as the ligand carrier. The adsorption of TODGA on MN270 under the same conditions did not exceed 0.07 mmol/g. Also the temperature and medium density effect on the TODGA adsorption on MN200 was evaluated. It is shown that isothermal decreasing of the CO2 density can increase the saturated adsorption of TODGA. The solid phase extractant (SPE) based on MN202 and TODGA did not show extraction properties towards Nd3+, which is probably due to the matrix insufficient pore size for the formation of comparatively large complex compound. At the same time, SPE based on MN200 showed a potential feasibility of its use.

Published: September 2024

Представлены результаты исследования окисления массивных образцов свинца кислородом, водяным паром, водокислородной смесью и раствором пероксида водорода при нагреве реактора со скоростью 1 K/мин до 873 K в условиях высокой плотности реагентов (ρн2о ≤ 4,58 и ρо2 ≤ 0,58 моль/дм3). Наименьший прирост массы образцов зарегистрирован при окислении свинца водяным паром и кислородом, а наибольший - смесью Н2O/O2. Из временных зависимостей температуры и давления реакционной смеси следует, что окисление свинца смесью Н2O/O2 заметно ускоряется при T> 425 K. Увеличение содержания O2 в смеси и снижение плотности водяного пара интенсифицируют окисление. Согласно данным рентгенофазового анализа (РФА), в составе продуктов окисления свинца смесью Н2O/O2 преобладает Pb3O4 (сурик). Установлено, что размер и морфология частиц продукта окисления свинца зависят от состава реакционной смеси. 0бсуждаются механизмы окисления.

The paper presents the research results of the oxidation of bulk lead samples with oxygen, water vapor, water-oxygen mixture, and hydrogen peroxide solution during heating of the reactor at a rate of 1 K/min up to 873 K under the conditions of high reactant density (ρH2o ≤ 4.58 and ρo2 ≤ 0.58 mol/dm3). The smallest gain in the weight of the samples was detected during the oxidation of lead with water vapor and oxygen, and the largest one, with the H2O/O2 mixture. It follows from the time dependences of the temperature and pressure of the reaction mixture that oxidation of lead by the H2O/O2 mixture noticeably accelerates at T> 425 K. An increase in the O2 content in the mixture and a decrease in the water vapor density intensify the oxidation. According to the X-ray diffraction analysis data, Pb3O4 (minium) predominates in the composition of lead oxidation products formed in the H2O/O2 mixture. It has been revealed that the size and morphology of oxidized lead particles depend on the composition of the reaction mixture. The mechanisms of lead oxidation are discussed.

Исследовано влияние давления на размер и морфологию частиц гидрохлорида левофлоксацина, осаждаемого методом сверхкритического антисольвентного осаждения (SAS). Показано, что кристаллизация левофлоксацина из двухфазной системні С02-диметилфорамид-гидрохлорид левофлоксацина приводит к получению частиц с бимодальным распределением по размеру. Кристаллизация из однофазной системы сопровождается сменой режима смешения СО2 и раствора, и, как следствие, наблюдается осаждение частиц с мономодальным распределением по размеру. Впервые построены кривые равновесия жидкость-газ для системы СО2- диметилфорамид-гидрохлорид левофлоксацина при температуре 40 °С.

The effect of pressure on the size and morphology of levofloxacin hydrochloride particles precipitated by supercritical antisolvent precipitation (SAS) was investigated.It is shown that the crystallization of levofloxacin from the two-phase CO2-dimethylforamide- levofloxacin hydrochloride system leads to the production of particles with a bimodal size distribution. Crystallization from a single-phase system leads to a change in the mixing mode of CO2 and solution, and as a result, precipitation of particles with a monomodal size distribution is observed. Liquid-gas equilibrium curves were obtained for the CO2- dimethylforamide-levofloxacin hydrochloride system at a temperature of 40 °C.

Published: September 2024

Globally, a healthy lifestyle is important in maintaining the balance between man and the environment as well as the prevention and avoidance of Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) especially among rural dwellers in developing economies where the state of quality healthcare is in chaos. In theory, individuals are products of investments made in their health which are either health-promoting or health-damaging behavior. We causally identify the motives of healthy lifestyle practices among arable crop farmers in Kwara state, Nigeria using a cross-sectional survey. We found out that less than average of the arable crop farmers sampled practiced healthy lifestyles and the factors that strongly influenced the healthy lifestyle behavior of arable crop farmers were gender, age, education, farm size, farm income as well as distance to healthcare. A policy simulation illustrates that taking consideration of the socioeconomic characteristics that drive the practice of healthy lifestyles will improve the health status of the populace, especially the rural dwellers, and also avoid lifestyle-related diseases in the future.

FIBROMATOSIS COLLI IN A NEONATE: A CASE REPORT AND REVIEW
Authors: Rahul B N , Teja Nerella Krishna , Pratapbhai Gohil Abhishek , Pentyala Suneetha , Rao Baru Rama Krishna
Published: September 2024

Fibromatosis Colli, also referred to as congenital torticollis, is a rare condition observed in neonates, characterized by the development of a benign
cervical pseudotumor. This pseudotumor arises due to the proliferation of benign brous tissue within the sternocleidomastoid muscle, leading to a
distinctive fusiform enlargement. Although the precise cause of this brosis remains unclear, there is speculation that it may be associated with
prenatal or perinatal trauma, potentially leading to hemorrhage and subsequent brotic changes. The utilization of ultrasound is of paramount
importance in conrming the diagnosis of bromatosis colli and for monitoring the condition's progression over time. We hereby present a case
involving a 12-week-old new-born who was diagnosed with bromatosis colli through ultrasonography later conrmed by biopsy. Initially, the
primary mode of treatment involved physiotherapy. However, as the condition persisted, a lateral surgical exploration was deemed necessary. In
conclusion, bromatosis colli, though rare, warrants early diagnosis and appropriate management. Ultrasonography serves as a valuable tool in
both conrming the diagnosis and guiding treatment decisions. In this particular case, physiotherapy was the initial approach, and when required,
surgical intervention was subsequently pursued.

The metaverse is a virtual world where users can interact with 3D objects using many senses to mimic the natural world. Stated differently, the
metaverse ecology might be thought of as a twin world or 3D simulation.The application of digital workow to our practice and the educational
setting has proven its efciency, as demonstrated by the reduction of waste and time, increased cost effectiveness, reduction in the time and number
of appointments, improvement in predictability through improved treatment planning, and improved patient satisfaction. We have previously
witnessed the introduction of digital technologies to reconstructive dentistry, implant dentistry, aesthetic dentistry, orthodontics, etc. The
marketing potential of dental ofces' metaverse presence can be advantageous. There are countless options with increased accessibility, fewer
travel expenses, and the advantage of switching between sessions or booths from any location in the globe. These include providing dental care to
the impoverished and leveraging technology advancements to improve training models.The following review is an encouraging example that
demonstrates the potential for the use of metaverse modalities in the advancement of contemporary dentistry.

Economic insecurity in the 2022 Italian general election: mobilization or withdrawal?
Authors: Salvarani Giacomo , Bordignon Fabio , Ceccarini Luigi
Published: September 2024

A right-wing coalition led by Giorgia Meloni’s Brothers of Italy (FdI) emerged as the clear winner of the 2022 Italian general election, with voter turnout reaching its lowest level in the history of the Italian Republic. This result unfolded amidst a long-standing sense of economic stagnation, escalating inequality, and rising inflation. The article explores the relationship between individual economic insecurity and the 2022 election results. There is an assumption in both public and scholarly discourse that economic insecurity is responsible for the rise of populist and, particularly, populist radical-right (PRR) parties. Does the 2022 Italian general election represent a case of mobilization or withdrawal of the economically insecure electorate? Building on the literature on populist success and the economy’s effects on political behavior, we find that economic insecurity was not behind the success of the PRR parties (the League and FdI) in the 2022 election. It was also not associated with the vote for the main populist non-radical-right party in the Italian political landscape: the 5-Star Movement. On the contrary, in this election, economic insecurity mostly deterred voters from casting their ballots, and the success of the PRR can mostly be explained by anti-immigration attitudes.
De onbegrepen wereld van matig, ernstig en diep verstandelijk beperkte kinderen met autisme

Children with moderate, severe or profound intellectual disabilities form a small but significant subgroup within the autism spectrum with high and very specific needs. This article reviews their behavioural characteristics and the way they process sensory stimuli and information. Because these children are – unlike people with a normal intelligence – unable to articulate their needs, an attempt is made to give a sketch of their unique experiential world: how do they experience the world, other people and themselves?
Over het gebruik van alternatieve behandelingen voor autisme
Authors: Jonkman Kim , Back Elisa , Staal Wouter , Benard Lotte , van der Doelen Daniël , Begeer Sander
Published: September 2024

Autism, a diverse neurodevelopmental disorder, sees a multitude of treatments, including controversial vaccine-related ones. Despite evidence against their effectiveness and potential harm, these treatments persist globally. We analysed the use of alternative treatments in two studies: a survey (N=1989) and a clinical care study (N=4520), both revealed a significant use of alternative treatments (23.0% – 30.7%), in children even 46.4%. Vaccine-related treatments were used by 3.2% of individuals with autism (and 6.7% of autistic children). Factors influencing alternative treatment use included co-occurring diagnoses, younger age at diagnosis, and mainstream treatment use. Patients treated by homeo-/osteopaths often had highly educated parents and were enrolled in special education. Widespread use of alternative treatments emphasizes the need for their inclusion in treatment guidelines. Parents, practitioners and individuals with autism should be both advised and warned about the benefits and risks of these treatments. More research is needed to better understand the choice for and effect of alternative treatments for autism, and mainstream care should be improved.
Ervaringskennis als professionele waarde in de ggz
Authors: Karbouniaris Simona , Galisch Olaf
Published: September 2024

Werken met ervaringskennis als professionele waarde in de ggz krijgt steeds meer aandacht binnen de geestelijke gezondheidszorg, die tegelijkertijd zeer technocratisch en interventionistisch georiënteerd is. Naast ervaringsdeskundigen kunnen ook traditionele professionals ervaringskennis benutten. In deze bijdrage staan we stil bij resultaten uit promotieonderzoek en de dagelijks praktijk van een psychiater en directeur van een ggz instelling. Inleiding Ervaringskennis is een vorm van kennis die nog niet overal even bekend of erkend is, maar toch in toenemende mate een plek verwerft binnen de geestelijke gezondheidszorg. Oud-cliënten die werkzaam zijn in een nieuwe rol als ervaringsdeskundige hebben de afgelopen 20-25 jaar de weg bereid voor een coming out van traditionele zorgprofessionals zoals verpleegkundigen, sociaal werkers, humanistische geestelijke verzorgers, vaktherapeuten, psychologen en psychiaters. Psychotherapeuten beschouwden reeds decennia geleden eigen trauma’s en levensontwrichtende ervaringen en de daaruit volgende post traumatic growth als een bijzondere capaciteit. Jung introduceerde in dit verband in 1951 de term ‘wounded healer’. Terry Blum en Paul Roman (1985) wezen erop dat de kennis van ‘recovered counselors’ van een andere aard is dan de academische kennis van de professionals. Een ervaringsdeskundige heeft immers levenslessen geleerd, terwijl de professional zijn kennis en vaardigheden opdeed binnen opleidingsverband. Kunnen deze echter niet beiden van toepassing zijn? Met de opkomst van het evidence-based werken verdween de persoonlijk doorleefde vorm van kennis naar de achtergrond, het werd niet meer relevant gevonden, de kennis werd te subjectief geacht (Weerman e.a., 2012). In onze huidige ggz zien we de neiging om het persoonlijke buiten de professionele arena te houden, de norm lijkt professionele distantie ondanks dat ook bekend is, dat gepaste nabijheid juist door cliënten gewaardeerd wordt. Een paradoxale bijkomstigheid daarbij is dat een aanzienlijk deel van de reguliere professionals zelf ook te maken heeft (gehad) met psychisch lijden. Als dit echter geen plek mag krijgen in de hulpverlening, is dit wellicht een gemiste opportuniteit. Ervaringskennis draagt namelijk interessante waarden bij zich, waar alle zorgprofessionals uit kunnen putten, zoals: gelijkwaardigheid, authenticiteit, erkenning en zeggenschap. Hoe kunnen ook behandelaren binnen de ggz ervaringskennis en -deskundigheid meenemen in hun werk? In dit artikel zullen wij ingaan op de uitkomsten van een promotieonderzoek naar de betekenis van ervaringskennis onder zorgprofessionals en geven we een inkijkje in de praktijk van psychiater Olaf Galisch.
Of het meten van zingeving zinnig is, hangt af van wat je meet
Authors: Visser Anja
Published: September 2024

Het artikel van Anja Visser dat hierna volgt, is geschreven in reactie op een artikel van Brecht Molenaar. Dat verscheen in het vorige nummer van Waardenwerk (nummer 96 van mei 2024) onder de titel Het zinloze van effectmetingen bij aandacht voor zin- en betekenisgeving. Molenaar schreef haar tekst naar aanleiding van een door ZonMw georganiseerd debat over de vraag of en, zo ja, hoe er met behulp van onderzoek kan worden aangetoond dat aandacht voor zingeving en het bieden van geestelijke verzorging waardevol is. In haar artikel signaleert zij dat er binnen prominente partijen zoals ZonMw, VWS en de beroepsvereniging van geestelijk verzorgers (VGVZ) een discours is gaan heersen dat ze benoemt als ‘het zingevingsdiscours’. Dit discours heeft zingeving als centraal begrip en aan de basis ervan ligt de aanname dat het bieden van aandacht voor zingeving, door hetzij geestelijk verzorgers hetzij andere zorgverleners, het effect beoogt van een betere kwaliteit van leven voor de ontvangers van zulke aandacht. Molenaar toont begrip voor het ontstaan van dit zingevingsdiscours (meedenken), ze trekt de vanzelfsprekendheid van de basale aanname in twijfel (tegendenken) en ze bepleit een alternatieve benadering (omdenken). Anja Visser was één van de sprekers tijdens het genoemde debat. Zij heeft zich bereid getoond om te reageren op de gedachtegang van Brecht Molenaar.

In het vorige nummer van Waardenwerk verscheen onder de titel ‘Resonantie als Verheffing’ mijn commentaar op het resonantiebegrip van de op het moment meest gevierde vertegenwoordiger van de Kritische Theorie, Hartmut Rosa. Mijn fundamentele kritiek betrof het feit dat Rosa niet doordringt tot de kern van het fenomeen van sociale resonantie, omdat hij niet voldoende articuleert dat resonantie altijd af hankelijk is van het ervaren van een hogere waarde, en dat met resonantie ook een ervaring van verheffing gepaard gaat. Tevens is het moeilijk voor te stellen dat het concept ‘resonantie’ als criterium kan fungeren voor een Kritische Theorie als er niet ook een waardenleer aan gekoppeld wordt die zou kunnen bepalen welke vormen van resonantie terecht een claim op waarheid en op verheffing kunnen maken. Alleen zo kan men het Goebbels-argument tegen de theorie van resonantie pareren. Rosa laat het begrip ‘resonantie’ als bouwsteen voor een kritische sociologie helaas vrij onuitgewerkt. Anders dan bijvoorbeeld Habermas, wiens concept ‘wederzijds begrip’ (Verständigung) als een kernelement voor de stabiliteit van samenlevingen wordt beschouwd, articuleert Rosa niet duidelijk hoe resonantie het laatste fundament kan zijn dat de samenleving bijeenhoudt. Daartegenover biedt ‘resonantie’ bij Rosa wel veel meer mogelijkheden dan de term van Habermas om een brug te slaan naar ecologisch en ontologisch denken. Rosa probeert weliswaar anti-essentialistisch en niet-metafysisch te denken, maar uit alle poriën van het resonantiebegrip manifesteert zich de romantische drang, zoals we dadelijk zullen zien, naar een natuurfilosofie die wortelt in een substantiële ontologie. Alles wijst erop dat Rosa in zijn laatste teksten de richting van een diepere filosofische fundering inslaat. Maar belangrijke tekortkomingen blijven tot nu toe voortbestaan. Vooral zijn theorie van de sferen van resonantie zou consequenter moeten worden uitgewerkt. Dat wil ik in dit artikel duidelijk maken Dit zou mogelijk zijn geweest als die theorie uit was gegaan van een objectief-idealistische filosofie, die de verschillende sferen van resonantie zelf als uitdrukking beschouwt van een verheffingsproces dat, zoals ik hierbeneden uitwerk, voortgestuwd wordt door een dialectische methode.

Published: September 2024

This study is about committing anti-social activities like: theft, illicit sexual relations, use and trafficking of drugs, fighting, destruction of property and cheating (juvenile Delinquency) by high school students ages 14-18 in Kisii Central Sub-County, Getembe Zone, Kenya. The purpose of the study was to explain the extent to which suicidal ideation, help-seeking behaviour, and use of media influence JD among secondary school students in Kisii Central Sub-County, Getembe Zone. It was also about the extent of differences in JD according to family type and perceived social class. The objective dealt with in this paper was to investigate the relationship between help-seeking behaviour and Juvinile Delinquency among secondary school adolescents in Kisii county, Kenya. Kisii Central Sub-County was selected because no similar study has been done there and because acts of student violence are apparent there. Probability and non-probability sampling methods were used. Questionnaires were used to collect data from students and teachers, interview schedules for principals, and focus group discussion questions were used on parents. The results indicated that respondents who scored highly in help-seeking behaviour were more delinquent than those that had a low score. The conclusion was that young people who think that they do seek help probably seek it from irresponsible people. It was therefore recommended that youths should be sensitized to seek help from caring persons in order to reduce cases of juvenile delinquency.

This study analyses the Government's responsibilities in implementing land acquisition in National Strategic Projects. This is qualitative research using a statutory approach, case and conceptual approaches. The primary legal materials resulted from relevant laws and legislation. The legal material collected is analysed prescriptively. The results showed that national strategic projects' land acquisition planning arrangements must be accommodated adequately and comprehensively. There are no land acquisition planning arrangements that accommodate justice, which has encouraged the creation of land acquisition conflicts. Research findings show that the Government's responsibility in acquiring land for National Strategic Projects is weak, and regulatory arrangements are unclear. Government responsibility still needs to be stronger and have strict legal regulations. Legal certainty for economic interests in National Strategic Projects is more dominant. At the same time, the Government has ignored the interests of law and justice for the affected communities.
Jordanian Cybercrime Law No. (17) of 2023 between Regulating Social Media Sites and Restricting Freedom of Opinion

Published: September 2024

The primary objective of this research is to study the Jordanian Cybercrime Law No. (17) of 2023 between regulating social media sites and restricting freedom of opinion. In addition, it clarifies the concept of cybercrimes and how to control social media sites while preserving citizens’ rights to freedom of expression. In terms of balancing digital security and controlling social media sites. Defining concepts and terms, such as “regulating” social media sites and “restricting freedom of opinion,” is crucial to understanding the law's impact on users. Monitoring and implementing the law by the competent authorities to avoid excessive violations of individuals’ rights. The researcher used the descriptive analytical method, as well as the inductive method, and the legal text analysis tool was used. This research has reached several results, the most important of which are that the Jordanian cybercrime law has used broad, vaguely defined, inaccurate, ambiguous, and non-specific terms, such as fake news. Even though these texts do not meet the requirements of international law regarding drafting legal texts precisely enough to allow individuals to regulate their behavior accordingly. In addition, the Jordanian cybercrime law focused on the penal and punitive dimensions and did not include any institutional or preventive measures to reduce negative phenomena in the digital environment. This research has reached several recommendations, the most important of which are that the Jordanian legislator must reconsider amending legal texts that are unfair to internet users in a way that leads to the adoption of balanced legal texts compatible with basic rights. These rights include the right to exchange information, the right to express opinions and ideas, and the right to privacy, which the Jordanian Constitution guarantees in Article (7).

Background: Despite different strategy to retard the progression of CKD, majority still progress to ESRD. Other than conventional risk factors inflammation is considered as one of the reversible factors responsible for CKD progression which can be intervened. Therefore, we have studied the level of inflammatory marker CRP and IL-6 at stages 3-5 of CKD patients and their association with CKD stage progression determined by eGFR. Methods: We have conducted a cross sectional study among 150 CKD patients and 32 healthy controls at OPD of Nephrology department of National Institute of Kidney Diseases and Urology, Dhaka from January`2016 to December`2016. Purposive sampling method was the tool for case selection and CKD was defined as eGFR <60ml/min/1.73m2. AKI, history of dialysis, kidney transplant, patients having acute infection, malignancy or liver disease, received chemotherapy or immunotherapy (<6 months) and patients with connective tissue disease were the exclusion criteria. Fasting blood glucose, Hb%, serum Ca++, serum PO4, serum total cholesterol and serum triglyceride level were measured for both case and controls. eGFR has been calculated using MDRD equation. For the cases CRP had been measured on two occasions at an interval of one and half month. Those cases who had raised CRP level in both occasions were selected for measurement of IL-6 from second sample. CRP had been measured by turbidimetry method using fully automated chemistry analyzer. IL-6 had been measured using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based on the Biotin double antibody sandwich technology. Scatter diagram and multiple regression models were used to examine the association between CRP and IL-6 with stage 3-5 of CKD denoted by eGFR. Results: The mean of CRP were 9.5±2.7 mg/L in CKD patients vs. 2.9±0.5 mg/L in controls without CKD and the mean of IL-6 were 29.5±13.0 pg/ml in CKD patients vs. 3.3±0.3 pg/ml in controls without CKD. Both were elevated and significant statistically (p=.001). Scatter diagram showing correlation coefficient (r value) -0.592 and -0.615 for eGFR vs. CRP and eGFR vs. IL-6 respectively which indicate both are negatively correlated with eGFR. But IL-6 had a more strong negative correlation. Multiple regression analysis shows regression co efficient (B) for CRP and IL-6 is -1.251 and -2.826 respectively after taking into account other factors which can alter eGFR level (age, Hb%, serum Calcium, S. Total Cholesterol, S.PO4, S. Triglyceride) that indicates in the prediction of eGFR, IL-6 had significant negative association than CRP after adjusting the conventional factors responsible for CKD progression. Conclusion: Our data suggest that though CRP and IL-6 both are significantly raised in advanced CKD stage 3-5, IL-6 is more rapidly increasing and more strongly associated than CRP with the severity of CKD measured by eGFR.

Published: September 2024

Breast cancer has become the leading cause of cancer-related death among women, partly due to therapeutic resistance and treatment-related complications. Chemotherapy and hormone therapy play a crucial role in managing breast cancer patients, providing essential treatment for both disease control and overall survival. However, as new therapeutic approaches are introduced and life expectancy continues to increase, the use of these treatments has been associated with persistent adverse effects, including dyslipidemia. This article presents the case of a breast cancer patient treated with chemotherapy and tamoxifen-based hormone therapy who developed severe mixed dyslipidemia. It also reviews lipid metabolism alterations observed in breast cancer patients, emphasizing the importance of monitoring lipid levels in these patients, particularly those undergoing hormone therapy or chemotherapy, to prevent cardiovascular complications.
