Background

Self-harm is common in adolescents and a major public health concern. Evidence for effective interventions is lacking. An individual patient data meta-analysis has the potential to provide more reliable estimates of the effects of therapeutic interventions for self-harm than conventional meta-analyses, to explore which treatments are best suited to certain groups.

Method

A systematic review and individual patient data meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials of therapeutic interventions to reduce repeat self-harm in adolescents who had a history of self-harm and presented to clinical services. Primary outcome was repetition of self-harm.

The methods employed for searches, study screening and selection, and risk of bias assessment are described, with an overview of the outputs of the searching, selection and quality assessment processes. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidance is followed.

Results

We identified a total 39 eligible studies, from 10 countries, where we sought Individual Patient Data (IPD), of which the full sample of participants were eligible in 18 studies and a partial sample of participants were eligible in 21 studies. We obtained IPD from 26 studies of 3448 eligible participants. For our primary outcome, repetition of self-harm, only 6 studies were rated as low risk of bias with 10 rated as high risk (although 2 of these were for secondary outcomes only).

Conclusions

Obtaining individual patient data for meta-analyses is possible but very time-consuming, despite clear guidance from funding bodies that researchers should share their data appropriately. More attention needs to be paid to seeking appropriate consent from study participants for (pseudo) anonymised data-sharing and institutions need to collaborate on agreeing template data-sharing agreements. Researchers and funders need to consider issues of research design more carefully.

Our next step is to analyse all the data we have collected to see if it will tell us more about how we might prevent repetition of self-harm in young people.

Published: October 2023

Trablusgarp Savaşıyla başlayıp Millî Mücadeleyle sonuçlanan süreçte, yüzbinlerce insan yaşamını yitirmiş, bir o kadarı da aktif işgücünün dışında kalmıştı. Bu nedenle, Cumhuriyet Türkiye’sinin çözmesi gereken başlıca sorunlardan biri nüfus meselesiydi. Zira yeni kurulan ulus devlet açısından devletin ve rejimin devamlılığı yetiştirilecek yeni nesillere bağlıydı. Nüfusu arttırıp daha nitelikli hale getirebilmenin ilk aşamasını ise oldukça yüksek olan çocuk ölümleriyle etkin bir şekilde mücadele etmek oluşturuyordu. Bu nedenle, ülkenin aydınları, sağlık görevlileri ve siyasetçileri iş birliği içerisinde sorunu çözmeye odaklandı. Çocuk ölümlerinin oranını düşürebilmek için çeşitli yasal düzenlemelere gidildi, halk bu konuda aydınlatılmaya çalışıldı. Sorunun nedenleri tespit edildikten sonra çocuk ölümlerine sebep olan çeşitli salgın hastalıklarla mücadele edilmeye çalışıldı. Söz konusu mücadele, 1930’lu yılların başından itibaren ilk meyvelerini vermeye başladı ve çocuk ölümü oranlarında kayda değer düşüşler gözlemlendi. Bununla birlikte, istenilen seviyeye ulaşılması noktasında bir hayli yol kat edilmesi gerektiği anlaşılmıştı. Çocuğun hem devletin geleceğini sağlayacak olan işgücünü hem de nüfusun niteliksel değişiminin itici gücünü oluşturduğu gerçeğinden hareketle, erken Cumhuriyet dönemi kadrolarının üzerinde en fazla durduğu meselelerin başında çocuk ölümleri sorunu gelmekteydi. Bu çalışma, söz konusu sorunun boyutlarını ve sorunu çözmek için atılan hukukî, sosyo-kültürel, sıhhî ve iktisadî adımların izini sürmekle birlikte alınan önlemlerin ne derece etkili olduğu da sorgulamaktadır. Makalenin hazırlanmasında, dönemin gazete ve dergileri, Cumhurbaşkanlığı Cumhuriyet Arşivi temel referans kaynaklar olarak kullanıldı. Bunun yanı sıra, yasal düzenlemelerin metinleri için resmî gazetenin ilgili nüshalarından istifade edildi. Çalışmanın, erken Cumhuriyet dönemi sağlık ve çocuk araştırmaları literatürüne katkı sağlaması beklenmektedir.

19. yüzyılın ikinci yarısında tütün tarımı ve ticareti ile tanışana kadar, küçük bir sahil kasabası görünümünde olan Samsun şehri, bundan sonra, Osmanlı’nın son yüzyılındaki benzerleri gibi önemli bir liman şehrine dönüşmüştür. Tütün sektörünü ulusal kalkınmanın önemli bir unsuru olarak gören Cumhuriyet hükümetleri döneminde sektöre yapılan devlet yatırımları ile birlikte ise Samsun, artık bir hafif sanayi kenti kimliğine bürünerek Karadeniz’in en büyük şehri olmuştur. Özellikle 1960’lı yıllara gelindiğinde kentteki tütün endüstri ve ticaretinin hacmi çok büyümüş ve bu büyüme 1980’lerin başına kadar sürmüştür. Öyle ki, daha 100 yıl öncesinde sadece kendir ve kereste üretip, balıkçılık yapan küçük kasaba; 1960’lı yıllarda, fabrika zilinin çalmasıyla birlikte sayıları on binleri aşan tütün işçisi kadınların beyaz önlükleriyle sokaklara döküldüğü modern bir kente dönüşmüştür. Toplumsal yaşamı kökünden etkileyecek bu değişimin en görünür sonuçlarından biri, -kentin fiziksel yapısında ve mekansal örgütlenmesinde görülen değişimle birlikte- ulaşım, sağlık ve eğitim olanaklarındaki iyileşme olmuştur. Limanı, demiryolları, karayolu bağlantıları, havalimanı, koleji ve hastaneleri ile Samsun, Cumhuriyet dönemi kentleşme anlayışı içerisinde ideal olarak tanımlanabilecek bir kent örneği teşkil etmiştir. Bu makale, kentte ulaşım, sağlık, eğitim gibi olanaklarda meydana gelen artışı, tarihsel gelişimi içerisinde aktararak, Cumhuriyet döneminin tütüne ilişkin politikasının, yerelde kentleşme üzerindeki etkisini gösterebilmeyi hedeflemektedir. Elbette ki, iktisat politikaları-sanayileşme-kentleşme etkileşiminin bu kısa makalede tüm yönleriyle ortaya konması mümkün değildir. Konunun ayrıntılı olarak incelendiği doktora tezimize dayanan bu makale, kentteki değişimin sadece belirli bir alanı (kamusal hizmet) ile sınırlandırılmak durumdadır.

Published: October 2023

Background: Chronic urticaria may occur when the body's immune system attacks its self-tissues. It is a skin condition marked by brief purpuric wheals that last longer than six weeks. Uncertainty surrounds the disease's etiopathogenesis. Autoimmunity and endocrine dysfunction may both be at play, according to the available research.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate if thyroid immunity is statistically linked with chronic urticaria.
Methods: This case-control study was held from June 2022 to March 2023 at Department of Dermatology & Venerology in IMCH, Popular diagnostic center and Digital Hospital in Gazipur. We examined the prevalence of autoantibodies (Anti-TPO) in 50 chronic urticaria patients and 50 healthy volunteers. In all participants, thyroid hormone and thyroid auto-antibodies were assessed.
Results: Thyroid function abnormalities were found 7 (13.42%) patients and Anti-TPO is positive in 38(76%) patients respectively. Only 2 (4%) of the individuals in the control group had positive anti-TPO tests. With chronic urticaria, anti-TPO levels were considerably greater (P 0.05) than in the control group.
Conclusions: This study shows a significant association between chronic urticaria and thyroid auto-immunity. The test is conducted to detect thyroid auto-antibodies is relevant in patients with chronic urticaria.

Social acceptability of conservation interventions for flatback turtles: comparing expert and public perceptions
Authors: Tuohy P , Richards SA , Cvitanovic C , van Putten I , Hobday AJ , Thomas L , Annand-Jones R
Published: October 2023

Sea turtles are facing significant threats, including anthropogenic warming, predation from feral animals, and sea level rise. While a range of intervention options are available, resource constraints and increasing time pressures means managers face the difficult task of prioritising options. To achieve successful conservation outcomes, managers are increasingly seeking to understand the social acceptability, as well as biological plausibility and economic feasibility, of these intervention options. Previous studies have used expert opinion as predictors of social acceptability, given their technical knowledge and experience implementing the interventions; however, the assumption that the social acceptability of interventions is the same for both the general public and experts is largely untested. We tested this assumption using surveys to assess the social acceptability of 24 interventions proposed for a population of flatback turtles Natator depressus in northwest Australia. Survey responses were collected from community members (residents) and experts (resource managers and researchers). Experts were asked to provide their own opinion of acceptability and how they perceived community members would rate intervention options. In general, residents ranked interventions that directly intervene with human behaviour or the environment as more acceptable than those that directly target turtles, while experts tended to favour direct turtle interventions. Experts incorrectly predicted that the community would not be influenced by the target of the intervention. Our findings highlight the importance of understanding social acceptability of interventions before implementation to inform management decisions and engagement and communication strategies, particularly when interventions might be controversial or restrict human behaviour directly.
Deriving connectivity from relatedness: broad-scale isolation-by-distance in the shanny Lipophrys pholis

Published: October 2023

Knowledge about the dispersal patterns of marine organisms is vital for understanding population dynamics and designing appropriately scaled protected areas and fisheries management. Assessing the extent to which populations are connected by larval exchange has been traditionally approached by delineating genetically differentiated populations. Inferring these patterns for species with high gene flow remains a challenge, as they often show panmixia over large spatial scales. In these cases, genetic connectivity may be revealed through the combination of population- and kinship-based approaches. Here, we assess the population structure and relatedness of the shanny Lipophrys pholis over 500 km along the Western Iberian Peninsula coastline, using 27 microsatellites developed for this study. As expected, given its long larval duration stage, we found high gene flow throughout the study area. However, a weak pattern of isolation-by-distance was detected by Mantel tests and large-scale relatedness patterns, suggesting decreasing genetic similarity with distance at the scale of the Western Iberian Peninsula. Conversely, we provided evidence of fine-scale connectivity at the smaller scale of the Atlantic Islands of Galicia National Park (Spain). Combining population- and kinship-based approaches may reveal previously undetected genetic differentiation within a well-connected population; however, we stress the importance of careful application and interpretation of relatedness metrics. Our findings may be broadened to other coastal organisms featuring similar life-history traits, including a relatively long larval phase, as well as comparable environmental conditions favoring dispersal by ocean currents, which could be directly applied to the management and conservation of Northeast Atlantic marine species.

Relevance. The study of the attitude to the disease of dental patients during the adaptation period with the use of conventional clinical research  methods is relatively rarely covered in the available domestic and foreign literature.

 Objective. To study the changes of internal disease pattern after the adaptation period completion in rehabilitation of patients with full tooth  loss by full removable acrylic dentures, including the use of such orthopedic dental prosthesis together with the adhesive agent, designed to  improve their fixation.

  Materials and methods. 48 (15 men and 33 women) elderly patients (61–74 years old) with a total loss of teeth were examined and were divided  into 2 study groups: 1 – comparison group; 2 – main group. There were also examined 17 elderly people who had no defects of dental rows and  formed a control group. The defects of dental rows in the patients of the 1st and 2nd groups were eliminated by making removable dentures.  At the same time, during the adaptation period the patients of the second group of the study used a new domestic adhesive cream Aceptа  Рarodontal with an extract of medicinal herbs for fixation of dentures. Before treatment and during the adaptation period the types of patients’  relation to the disease were investigated; for this purpose the clinical technique «Type of relation to the disease» (TORD) was used

Results. It was found that while preserving the integrity of dental rows in elderly people the types of attitude to the disease included in the  conditionally adaptive block were mainly marked. At the end of adaptation period if all patients of the main group 2 had the types of attitude  towards the disease included in the first conditionally adaptive block, then the patients of the comparison group 1 in only 39.1% of people  revealed similar types of attitude towards the disease, which testified to the problems in adaptation to new removable acrylic dentures made  for the treatment of complete tooth loss.  

Conclusion. The use of ASEPTA РARODONTAL adhesive cream with herbal extracts by patients provides a positive correction of the internal  picture of the disease and the patient’s personal reaction to the treatment. On the basis of the carried out research it is possible to recommend  to patients the domestic adhesive cream ASEPTA РARODONTAL for denture fixation in order to optimize the adaptation period to removable  acrylic dentures as well as for permanent use, which will improve not only fixation and stabilization of dentures, condition of denture bed mucosa,  but also quality of speech function.

The method of resonance frequency analysis was used to compare the stability of dental implants in patients with normal bone tissue condition, osteopenia and osteoporosis. The indicators allow obtaining information on the state of the implants and determining the permissible biomechanical load using an orthopedic structure. The measurement method allows observing the dynamics of the osteointegration process, and, if necessary, make timely adjustments to the functional load.

Material and methods: comprehensive examination and treatment of 690 patients who applied to the clinic for dental flaw removal by dental implantation. Among them, 547 were (79.3%) women and 143 (20.7%) men. In preparation for dental implantation operations, all patients, except for the standard examination, were also densitometrically examined by double X-ray photon absorptiometry, which revealed systemic changes in bone mineral density. Stability of dental implants and osteointegration were monitored by resonance frequency analysis.

Results: the overall value of the resonance-frequency analysis, regardless of the region of implants installed in patients with normal bone tissue, differed from those of the osteopenia and osteoporosis group, and was respectively higher by 7.1% (p < 0.001) and 10.1% (p < 0.001). The overall rate in the osteopenia group was higher, and differed from such a group of patients with osteoporosis by 5.7% (p < 0.001).

Conclusion: the results of the resonance-frequency analysis provide significant information about the state of the implant-bone interface at different stages of treatment and at control examinations of patients. The measurement method allows observing the dynamics of the osteointegration process, and, if necessary, make timely adjustments to the functional load. Resonance frequency analysis is an important method for documenting the clinical outcome of implantation.

Relevance. Effective pain relief is required for high-quality outpatient dental treatment in children. Рeriodontal local anesthetic methods are  easier to implement and safer for young patients.

 Purpose. To conduct a comparative analysis of the use of various local anesthetics when using a modified periodontal method in the treatment  of caries and pulpitis of permanent teeth in children 7–12 years old at an outpatient dental appointment.

 Materials and methods. The study involved 108 children of the 7–12 years old age group, who need treatment for caries and pulpitis of permanent  molars. Local anesthetic was administrated 4% solution of articaine without a vasoconstrictor, with epinephrine at concentrations of 1:200,000,  1:400,000, 2% solution of articaine without a vasoconstrictor and with epinephrine 1:200,000. To determine the effectiveness of the treatment  a developed analog-visual scale was used.

 Results. The high efficiency and safety of the use of modified periodontal anesthesia using 2 and 4% solutions of articaine with epinephrine  in the treatment of permanent molars in children aged 7–12 years was determined.
Designing Anti-Viral Vaccines that Harness Intrastructural Help from Prior BCG Vaccination
Authors: Ng Tony W. , Porcelli Steven A.
Published: October 2023

Vaccines are among the most effective tools for combatting the impact and spread of infectious diseases. However, the effectiveness of a vaccine can be diminished by vaccine inequality, particularly during severe outbreaks of infectious diseases in resource-poor areas. As seen in many developing countries that lack adequate healthcare infrastructure and economic resources, the acquisition and distribution of potentially life-saving vaccines may be limited, leading to prolonged suffering and increased deaths. To improve vaccine equity, vaccine design must take into consideration the logistics needed to implement a successful vaccination drive, particularly among the most vulnerable populations. In the manuscript titled “Exploiting Pre-Existing CD4+ T Cell Help from Bacille Calmette-Guérin Vaccination to Improve Antiviral Antibody Responses” published in the Journal of Immunology, the authors designed a recombinant subunit vaccine against the Ebola virus (EBOV) glycoprotein that can harness the pre-existing T helper cells from prior BCG vaccination. As a recombinant subunit vaccine adjuvanted with alum, this approach has many features that make it well suited for the design of vaccines for developing nations, such as relative ease of production, scalability, and distribution. In addition, the high prevalence of BCG immunization and natural immunity to mycobacteria in many regions of the world endow such vaccines with features that should increase potency and efficacy among populations residing in such regions. As a result of using the helper activity of pre-existing BCG-specific Th cells to drive antibody responses, a lower vaccine dose is needed, which is a major advantage for vaccine manufacture. Furthermore, the BCG-specific Th cells also stimulate immunoglobulin class switching to IgG isotypes that have strong affinities for activating Fc-gamma receptors (FcγRs). Taken together, we propose that the design of subunit vaccines with intrastructural help from BCG-specific Th cells can improve protection against viral infection and represents a vaccine design that can be generally adapted to other emerging viral pathogens for the control and prevention of infection in many developing countries.
