Published: April 2023

Diarrhoeal illness remains a key global health problem causing 15% of deaths among children under five years of age. This study evaluated the antidiarrhoeal activity of Terminalia catappa aqueous stem bark extract on albino rats. Antidiarrhoeal activity of T. catappa was assessed by measuring the stool inhibition, gastrointestinal motility and castor oil-induced enteropooling. Thirty (30) albino rats were divided into 6 groups of 5 rats each, where groups I and II remained the normal and negative control groups respectively; group III was treated with standard drug, groups IV, V and VI were treated with 100, 200 and 300 mg/kg b. wt. of aqueous stem bark extract of T. catappa, respectively. Percentage stool inhibition of treated groups was significantly greater than that of the negative control. However, group II treated with standard drug (loperamide) showed higher percentage inhibition. The volume of intestinal fluid decreased with increase in dose of the extract. The volume of intestinal fluid of the group treated with standard drug significantly decreased when compared to group treated with extract. Distance travelled by the charcoal significantly decreased at higher dose of extract. Aqueous stem bark extract of T. catappa has a dose-dependent antidiarrhoeal activity.

Methods: 100 RA patients and 100 age- and sex-matched healthy controls made up this cross-sectional study. For urine analysis and culture, each participant provided mid-stream urine sample. Each participant's blood was drawn for ELISA testing to measure the levels of IgG antibodies against Proteus mirabilis and E. coli, the most frequently isolated pathogen from RA patients’ urine samples. Additionally, RA patients' clinical assessments were carried out. Results: (5%) of healthy controls and (40%) of RA patients had asymptomatic bacteriuria, respectively. E. coli (25%), followed by Proteus mirabilis (42.5%), were the two most frequently isolated organisms. IgG antibody levels against Proteus mirabilis were significantly different between the two study groups (P 0.001). Regarding the levels of IgG antibodies against E. coli, there was no discernible difference between the two study groups (P 0.571). Proteus mirabilis IgG antibody levels were observed to significantly positively correlate with ESR, CRP, DAS28, m HAQ, duration of morning stiffness, and conventional DMARDs in RA patients.

The total population in this study amounted to 374 students of the Faculty of Business Economics, Harapan University Medan, and the sample taken was 30% from 374 to 112 people. The analysis technique used is multiple linear regression and MRA.The results showed that entrepreneurship education, use of social media and availability of information had a significant effect on interest in entrepreneurship, self-efficacy had an effect on interest in entrepreneurship, self-efficacy moderated the effect of entrepreneurship education on interest in entrepreneurship, self -efficacy did not moderate the effect of using social media on interest in entrepreneurship, and self-efficacy did not moderate the effect of information availability on entrepreneurial interest in students of the Faculty of Business Economics, Universitas Harapan
Literature Study of Riba In Banking

The purpose of this article is to understand  the history of banks usury and banks usury. From the results of the literature conducted, it seems that there are three opinions on the question of whether a bank's interest is usury. Second, it accepts interest because it is  not equivalent to the  usury prohibited by Islamic law. Third, bank interest is haram, but it is acceptable because there is no way around it. Muslim scholars and scholars still disagree on the following bank interest laws: Abu Zafra, Abu Ala Al Maudi Abdullah Al Arabi, and Yusuf Kardawa said that  interest on traditional banks is included in the nasty Nassia class banned by Islam. Ulama's fatwa on the ban on bank interest was actually established at the Islamic Research Conference, attended by 150 prominent scholars, at the second conference in Cairo, Egypt, in May 1965. Since then, various international and domestic ulama forums have issued fatwas banning bank interest.

Introduction: In recent decades, the number of dental implant procedures has shown significant growth worldwide, reaching about one million dental implants per year. In Brazil, in recent decades, there has been a very rapid evolution in implant dentistry with high success rates. Several materials can be used as a bone graft, each with different properties, for example, regarding neovascularization. Guided bone regeneration favors the formation of new bone tissue. When grafting procedures are required, the focus is often on the type of biomaterial to be used and the success and predictability of the results. Objective: It was to carry out a concise systematic review of bone regeneration processes using biomaterials and the main molecular and cellular constituents for implant dentistry. Methods: The survey was carried out from January to February 2023 in the Scopus, PubMed, Science Direct, and Scielo databases, using older scientific articles with a gold standard reference up to 2022. The quality of the studies was based on the GRADE instrument and the risk of bias by the Cochrane instrument. Results and Conclusion: It was founded on 128 studies that underwent eligibility analysis. The final sample had 34 eligible studies that were described in the systematic review. Most studies showed homogeneity in their results, with X2=89.8.8% <50%. Due to bone regeneration and biological barriers in graft surgeries, there has been a technological growth of these materials as they point to potential tools for treating bone loss. The greater potential of guided bone regeneration was associated with the graft material due to the higher grade of vital bone and the lower percentage of residual graft particles. All studied bone substitute materials resulted in efficient bone formation for dental implants and alveolar ridge preservation procedures.

La irrupción de las derechas en las organizaciones juveniles latinoamericanas
Authors: Lara Carlos René Unda , Rosales Carla Daniela
Published: April 2023

Mantuvimos una entrevista con el investigador ecuatoriano, René Unda Lara, en la Universidad Salesiana (Quito) donde se realizó la X Escuela de Infancias y Juventudes de CLACSO/Red INJU. Allí pudimos profundizar acerca de su exposición en una de las mesas centrales de la escuela, donde pudo desplegar aspectos específicos de un informe sobre acciones colectivas en pandemia presentados por el Observatorio Latinoamericano y Caribeño de Infancias y Juventudes. Unda Lara pone el foco en la visibilidad y emergencia de las derechas en Latinoamérica y como se están expresando en discursos, prácticas y sentido común en las organizaciones juveniles. El investigador desarrolla las categorías y dimensiones con que se ha construido el análisis y viene a brindar aproximaciones de sentidos a cerca de una realidad que se impone en nuestra región. Unda Lara avanza en su reflexión tensionando sobre las construcciones democráticas, los populismos y el ascenso del neoliberalismo que él le llama autoritario. Este es el contexto para el análisis la vuelta de las derechas.

Abstract

Objective

The study aims to evaluate the detectability of bone metastases (BM) by CT scan vs. bone

Scintigraphy (BS) and the sensitivity of tumor markers in different oncological settings for predicting the presence of skeletal metastases.

Methods

Medical information was collected for 299 patients who fit the inclusion criteria from patient files and medical image reports using (AGFA PACS® and Trakcare® systems) between January 2013 and December 2021 at KAMC-HC in Makkah.

Results

BS detected BM in breast cancer patients in 135 cases, while CT scan detected BM in 122 cases. In prostate cancer patients, the BS detected BM in all 38 cases, while the CT scan detected BM in 32 cases. Regarding Gastro-Intestinal (GI) malignancies, the BS detected BM in 27 cases, while the CT scan detected BM in 23 cases only.

PSA was conducted on 40 patients and 28 (70%) of them were elevated. Breast cancer patients showed tumor marker elevation in 46 (38.9%) of 118 patients. GI malignancy revealed the highest rate of tumor markers elevation in 24 (80%) of 30 patients.

Conclusion

Our study showed that BS has higher sensitivity than CT scan in detecting BM for breast, prostate and GI malignancies. Further collaboration is needed to determine the sensitivity of each modality, compare them with other monitoring methods like MRI or PET/CT, optimize the hospital resources utilization for each type of malignancy and reduce the patient’s exposure to unnecessary radiation.
