Authors: Mahajan Abhishek , Malhotra Akhilesh , Rai Jayant , Shafi Shazia
Published: December 2022

Background: COVID-19 was declared as pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. Earlier COVID-19 vaccine trends show that vaccine coverage rate is lower in rural people as compared to their urban counterparts which may be due to many reasons, that is, acceptability, accessibility, or affordability to vaccination program. The present study focuses on COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy and its determinants among rural people.

Aims and Objectives: The aims of this study were to assess hesitancy toward COVID-19 vaccination and its determinants among 18 year and above general population residing in a rural area of UP.

Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted during May 22 among 18 years and above 444 subjects residing in a rural area of UP. Information was collected with reference to sociodemographic characteristics of respondents and COVID vaccination status and reason for vaccine hesitancy if any.

Results: A total of 444 respondents participated in study. About 16.6% of respondents have not taken COVID-19 vaccine. Vaccine Hesitancy regarding COVID-19 was more in 60 years and above age group, females, Hindus, and illiterates. Vaccine hesitancy related to COVID-19 is significantly associated with age and literacy status (P < 0.05). Out of 74 unvaccinated respondents, majority said (37.8%) that lack of time was major reason for vaccine hesitancy followed by health issues (28.4%) (such as fever, diabetes, and respiratory problems).

Conclusions: It is important to find solution to reason to reason for vaccine hesitancy in general population and expel myth and misconceptions regarding vaccine hesitancy.

Published: December 2022

Introduction: Recently, minimally invasive surgical therapies (MISTs) have become an alternative to surgery or pharmacotherapy to manage benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). This study evaluated the cost-utility of water vapor thermal therapy (WVTT) and prostatic urethral lift (PUL) compared to pharmacotherapy as initial treatment for patients with moderate-to-severe BPH.

Methods: In this model-based economic evaluation we simulated BPH progression in men (mean age 65 years, average International Prostate Symptom Score 16.6) over their lifetime and estimated healthcare costs (from the Canadian healthcare payer perspective) per quality-adjusted life year (QALY), discounted at 1.5% annually. In the model, men could receive up to three lines of therapy: i) initial pharmacotherapy with MIST as second-line, and TURP or pharmacotherapy as third-line; ii) initial MIST (WVTT or PUL) with MIST again, TURP or pharmacotherapy as second-line, and TURP as third-line. The model was populated using data from the published literature.

Results: The expected lifetime QALYs and costs were 15.50 QALYs and $14,626 for initial treatment with WVTT, 15.35 QALYs and $11,795 for pharmacotherapy followed by WVTT, 15.29 QALYs and $13,582 for pharmacotherapy followed by PUL, 15.29 QALYs and $19,151 for initial treatment with PUL. Strategies involving PUL procedures were dominated by strategies involving WVTT. The incremental cost per QALY gained was $18,873 for initial WVTT compared to initial pharmacotherapy followed by WVTT.

 Conclusion:  WVTT appears to be a cost-effective procedure, and may be an appropriate first-line alternative to pharmacotherapy for patients with BPH who seek faster improvement and no lifelong commitment to daily medications.

The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that causes the 2019 novel coronavirus illness (COVID-19) is a contagious virus that can spread from person to person. Over 228 million cases had been identified as COVID-19 infections as of September 21, 2021, over more than 200 nations and regions. As it has gradually spread over the world, there have been around 4.69 million fatalities, and the mortality rate has risen to about 2.05%.To combat the COVID-19 pandemic, it is crucial to investigate the properties of the novel coronavirus' genome and proteins, clinical diagnostics, pathogenic mechanisms, and the creation of antiviral medications and vaccines. The COVID-19-related investigations needed to comprehend the pandemic's occurrence are constrained by the limitations of conventional biology methods. Bioinformatics is the application of computational methods and analytical tools in the field of biological research, which has clear benefits in predicting the structure, outcome, function, and evolution of unidentified genes and proteins, as well as in drug and vaccine screening from a large amount of sequence data. Based on the most recent reports of bioinformatics technologies, we have here provided a thorough summary of some of the most significant COVID-19 approaches and applications with an eye on future research for containing the virus pandemic. The SARS-CoV-2 genome can be swiftly retrieved using third-generation sequencing (TGS) and next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology in addition to virus detection. The development of data on the SARS-CoV-2 genome sequences, variations, and haplotypes aids in our understanding of the structure of the genome and proteins, variant calling, mutation, and other biological traits. According to phylogenetic research and sequence alignment, the bat may be the novel coronavirus's native host. The mechanism of the immunological response generated by COVID-19 can be discovered via single-cell RNA sequencing, which is a rich source of information.

Knockdown of NEAT1 induced microglial M2 polarization via miR‑374a‑5p/NFAT5 axis to inhibit inflammatory response caused by OGD/R
Authors: Lian Xiao‑Wen , Luo Bin
Published: December 2022

The long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been important regulators for the progression of ischemic‑induced stroke. We aim to study the role of the lncRNA nuclear enriched abundant transcript 1 (NEAT1) in oxygen and glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) treated microglia. OGD/R injury of CHME5 cells was used as an in vitro stroke model. qRT‑PCR analysis was performed\r\nto examine NEAT1, miR‑374a‑5p, nuclear factor of activated T cells 5 (NFAT5) and cytokines. Western blot assay detected protein levels of NFAT5 and microglia markers. The concentration of cytokines was determined by ELISA. Finally, the target relationships among NEAT1, miR‑374a‑5p and NFAT5 were observed by dual luciferase reporter experiments. After OGD/R treatment of CHME5 cells, NEAT1 and NFAT5 were enhanced, while miR‑374a‑5p was decreased. Moreover, knockdown of NEAT1 induced the shifting of OGD/R treated microglia from M1 to M2 and inhibited the inflammatory cytokines in CHME5 cells. Additionally,\r\nNEAT1 directly targeted miR‑374a‑5p while inhibition of miR‑374a‑5p reversed the role of NEAT1 downregulation in OGD/R treated microglia. Furthermore, miR‑374a‑5p directly regulated NFAT5. Interestingly, miR‑374a‑5p also contributed to the transformation of microglia with OGD/R treatment from M1 to M2 and suppressed relative expression levels of inflammatory factors by inhibiting NFAT5 in CHME5 cells. Knockdown of NEAT1 regulated OGD/R injury of CHME5 cells via miR‑374a‑5p/NFAT5 axis to induce the shifting of microglia from M1 to M2 and inhibit inflammatory response, making it a potential target for stroke treatment.

Report of our clinical case of laparoscopic hand-assisted donor heminephrectomy in living donor with horseshoe kidney (Horseshoe kidne) has a good innovation in donor kidney retrieval technique and particularly in case of congenital anomalies.
Kidney transplantation is a “gold standard” of treatment of chronic kidney disease in terminal stage. Nowadays there is a strong deficit of donor organs. Due to undeveloped cadaveric kidney transplantation we always try to accept donors with different anatomic particularities. In our practice we perform traditionally laparoscopic hand-assisted donor nephrectomy either in case of single artery and vein or multiple vessels.
This case is a report of kidney transplantation from 65 –years old woman for her 39-years old son with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Technical challenge was due to that donor had a Horseshoe kidne with parenchymal isthmus, with 4 arteries on right half and 2 arteries on the left with retrocaval position of the latters.
We performed literature review for similar cases and found out that usually open laparotomy was performed in this patients. So we decided not to change the familiar for us technique in this case also. Donor underwent laparoscopic hand-assisted donor heminephrectomy with subsequent successful implantation of graft and immediate function.

Stunting menjadi salah satu permasalahan gizi kronis pemerintahan Indonesia. Balita yang mengalami kekurangan gizi dalam jangka waktu lama terutama dalam 1000 hari pertama kehidupan yang dapat mengalami stunting. Berdasarkan RPJMN 2020-2024, stunting menjadi prioritas pembangunan nasional dengan target menurunkan prevalensi hingga pada angka 14% di tahun 2024. Oleh karena itu, pemerintah dan seluruh masyarakat harus berperan serta dalam pencapaian target tersebut. Edukasi masyarakat tentang pentingnya 1000 hari pertama kehidupan dinilai dapat menjadi salah satu cara untuk menurunkan angka kejadian stunting. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini dilaksanakan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan masyarakat yang terdiri dari remaja, ibu hamil, dan kader Posyandu agar dapat mengenali stunting, mengetahui upaya pencegahan, dan penatalaksanaan stunting. Metode yang digunakan dalam kegiatan ini adalah ceramah dan tanya jawab yang berisi materi cara mengenali stunting, cara menilai status gizi menggunakan KMS (Kartu Menuju Sehat) terbaru, pentingnya 1000 hari pertama kehidupan, cara pencegahan stunting, dan apa yang harus dilakukan ketika menjumpai stunting. Kegiatan edukasi ini diberikan kepada 35 peserta selama 120 menit. Tingkat pengetahuan peserta diukur sebelum dan sesudah kegiatan melalui pretest dan postest. Pada akhir kegiatan ini meningkatkan pengetahuan masyarakat. Hasil pretest didapatkan 10 peserta (28,57%) memiliki pengetahuan baik, 7 peserta (20%) memiliki pengetahuan cukup, dan 18 peserta (51,43%) memiliki pengetahuan kurang. Tingkat pengetahuan meningkat setelah pemberian materi dan sesi tanya jawab yaitu terdapat 31 peserta (88,57%) memiliki pengetahuan baik, dan 4 peserta (11,43%) memiliki pengetahuan cukup. Seluruh komponen masyarakat diharapkan dapat ikut berperan serta aktif dalam upaya menurunkan angka kejadian stunting
Cost-effectiveness analysis of surgical lung volume reduction compared with endobronchial valve treatment in patients with severe emphysema
Authors: Franzen Daniel
Published: December 2022

BACKGROUND: Lung volume reduction, either by surgery or bronchoscopically  by endobronchial valve treatment have been shown to be a cost-effective alternative compared with conservative therapy. However, there is no comparative analysis of lung volume reduction by surgery and bronchoscopic lung volume reduction using endobronchial valves.

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this retrospective study was to provide a cost-effectiveness analysis of lung volume reduction by surgery compared with bronchoscopic lung volume reduction using endobronchial valves.

METHODS: The effectiveness of lung volume reduction was assessed using forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), residual volume (RV) and 6-minute walking distance (6MWD), measured at baseline and at 4 to 12 weeks. Cost unit accounting derived from SwissDRG was used as a surrogate of the costs from the payer’s perspective.

RESULTS: In total, 67 patients (37 men and 30 women) with a mean age of 68.3 ± 7.4 years were included. Both clinical effectiveness and costs were comparable between surgical and bronchoscopic lung reduction. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs) for bronchoscopic compared with lung volume reduction by surgery for FEV1, RV and 6MWD were –101, 4 and 58, respectively. For RV and 6MWD, it could be shown that endobronchial valve  treatment is justified as a probably cost-effective alternative to lung volume reduction by surgery. Endobronchial valve  treatment resulted in an improvement of 0.25 quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) and an ICER of € 7657 per QALY gained.

CONCLUSION: A robust statement on the superiority of one of the two procedures in terms of cost-effectiveness cannot be made from the present study. Therefore, the study is not suitable for resource allocation. Two upcoming trials comparing lung volume reduction surgery and endobronchial valve treatment may be able to answer this question.

Die rechtsgestaltende Anwaltsklausur
Authors: Diercks-Harms Kerstin
Published: December 2022

Die "kreative" Anwaltsklausur

In mehreren Bundesländern, wie auch in Bayern und Niedersachsen, ist eine rechtsgestaltende Anwaltsklausur schon seit Jahren fester Bestandteil des zivilrechtlichen Assessorexamens.

Die außergerichtliche Gestaltung, insbesondere die Vertragsgestaltung, stellt in der Praxis einen Kernbereich anwaltlicher Tätigkeit dar. Aus diesem Grund werden auch andere Landesjustizprüfungsämter, unter anderem in Baden-Württemberg und Nordrhein-Westfalen, zukünftig vermehrt Klausuren stellen, in denen die Referendare nicht nur fundiertes Rechtswissen, sondern darüber hinaus einen an Mandantenwünschen orientierten gestalterischen Entwurf zu Papier bringen müssen.

Was bei diesem Klausurtyp zu beachten ist

Diese Art von Klausur unterscheidet sich von den typischen Anwaltsklausuren im Assessorexamen dadurch, dass gerade keine Beratung eines Mandanten hinsichtlich eines Gerichtsprozesses erfolgen soll.

Das Buch erläutert die verschiedenen Aufgabentypen und zeigt zugleich die jeweils passenden Strategien auf, um Rechtsreferendaren die Herangehensweise und die Strukturierung dieses Klausurtyps zu erleichtern. Denn obwohl die rechtsgestaltende Klausur den Examenskandidaten juristische Phantasie abverlangt, ist auch hier strukturierte, saubere Arbeit mit dem Gesetz und dem Klausursachverhalt unerlässlich.

Mit Fällen und Lösungsvorschlägen

Für eine bestmögliche Examensvorbereitung sorgen Fälle und Lösungen mit ausformulierten Entwürfen, beispielsweise von Verträgen oder Allgemeinen Geschäftsbedingungen, die prüfungsrelevante Rechtsgebiete abdecken.

Die optimale Prüfungsvorbereitung

Das Buch richtet sich an Rechtsreferendare in allen Bundesländern. Es erleichtert ihnen den Einstieg in die Anwaltsstation und bietet eine umfassende Prüfungsvorbereitung auf rechtsgestaltende Anwaltsklausuren im Zivilrecht.
Zuwanderer in Betreuungs- und Unterbringungsverfahren
Authors: Dornis Christian
Published: December 2022

Der Leitfaden beschreibt erstmals zusammenhängend die kommunikativen Besonderheiten und speziellen Rechtsfragen, die in betreuungsgerichtlichen Verfahren für Menschen mit Migrationshintergrund auftreten. Er richtet sich gleichermaßen an Richter, Behördenvertreter oder Verfahrenspfleger in Betreuungs- und Unterbringungsverfahren.

Ziel des Verfahrens sollte sein, trotz kultureller Unterschiede und eventueller kommunikativer Hürden die bestmögliche Lösung für den Betroffenen zu finden und dabei das von der Herkunftskultur geprägte Wertesystem des Zuwanderers zu berücksichtigen.

Interkulturelle Kommunikation

Im Betreuungsverfahren spielt die Anhörung des Betroffenen und die Kommunikation mit dem Betroffenen und dessen Angehörigen eine zentrale Rolle. Im Fokus des Leitfadens stehen daher Fragen interkultureller Kommunikation. Der Autor gibt Anregungen, wie typische, aus unterschiedlichen Kommunikationsweisen und Wertesystemen resultierende Missverständnisse vermieden werden können.

Dabei werden alle die Kommunikationssituation prägenden Aspekte beleuchtet, z.B. Ort und Zeit der Anhörung, Ablauf der Anhörung, Erklärung der Situation für die Beteiligten, Verdeutlichung der Position des Richters oder des Behördenvertreters, sowie Fragen der zweckmäßigen Auswahl und Einbeziehung von Dolmetschern.

Erörtert werden aber auch Fehlerquellen in ärztlichen Gutachten aufgrund mangelnder Berücksichtigung interkultureller Faktoren.

Ergänzende Themen

Daneben widmet sich der Leitfaden materiellrechtlichen Fragen des internationalen Betreuungsrechts und des Anspruchs auf konsularischen Schutz. Ein eigenes Kapitel beschäftigt sich mit dem rechtlichen und praktischen Umgang mit irregulären Zuwanderern in Unterbringungs- oder Betreuungsverfahren.

Schließlich erläutert der Autor typische Schwierigkeiten bei häufigen Krankheitsbildern und gibt einen Überblick über Besonderheiten im Umgang mit Betroffenen bestimmter Herkunftsländer.
