Published: April 2021

ABSTRACT
COVID-19 is a Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV-2). It threatened the whole world and considered as pandemic recently, emergencies and quarantine has been declared all over the world. Many published reviews and research articles, discussed analysis, symptoms, diagnosis, and possible ways of treatments. However, nowadays, more focus is inclined on recovered patients and the possible events faced by these patients in postrecovery period. Specialists, medical care workers are looking for unmistakable approaches to defend their life later on. It is important to have a full background on their physical and psychological status after their recovery with certain guidelines to follow-up. There is more concern, care for family and society as they might suffer from stress, depression, and stigmatization from society. Awareness programs and counseling should be recommended to bring the recovered patients to their normalcy. Surveys and cohort studies will be helpful for prognosis of the disease as well as to be ready to face the second stage of COVID-19. This article will focus on recovered COVID-19 patients, their complications, precautionary methods, and post care.

ABSTRACT
The aim of this research was to determine the total phenolic content (TPC), antioxidation, antiaging, and antibacterial activities of Carissa carandas Linn., and aims at the novel plant sources which is utilized for their cosmeceutical applications. The two conditions (fresh and dried) and three stages (unripe, ripe, and fully ripe) of C. carandas were extracted by ethanolic maceration. Folin–Ciocalteu assay was used for determining the TPC. 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2′-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) assays were used for estimating antioxidant activity. The inhibitory tyrosinase activities were measured using the modified dopachrome assay. Antiaging was evaluated by inhibition of collagenase and elastase, and antibacterial activities. The result of six extracts from C. carandas showed that the highest phenolic content and elastase inhibition of the fresh fruit in fully ripe stage were 100.31 ± 2.64 mg GAE/g extract and 14.11% ± 0.95%, respectively. The fresh fruit in the unripe stage showed that the strongest percentage of DPPH IC50 and collagenase inhibitory activity were 29.11 ± 0.23 μg/mL and 85.94% ± 2.21%, respectively. The ethanolic extract of unripe dried fruit exhibited the highest antioxidant activity in the of ABTS assay, with an IC50 of 0.17 ± 0.01 μg/mL. The MBC displayed the dried fruit ripe stage anti Cutibacterium acnes, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Staphylococcus aureus strains were 25.0, 25.0, and 16.25 mg/mL, respectively. The fresh fruit in the ripe stage showed that the strongest inhibition tyrosinase was 93.88% ± 5.64%. The conclusion of this research indicates that the fresh fruit of C. carandas fruit extracts has high potential as a novel cosmeceuticals’ applications to antiaging and skin whitening. The dried fruit in ripe stage extract has the most effective ingredient for antiacne products.

Published: April 2021

Objective:
To compare the anthropometric and metabolic parameters between normal and deficient Vitamin D PCOS women.

Materials and Methods:
All women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) women were analyzed over a period of eighteen months from- May 2016 to October 2017. The study participants were divided into two groups as per 25(OH)D level. Those with 25(OH)D level <20 ng/ml (Vitamin D deficient) were taken group I and those having 25(OH)D level ≥ 20 ng/ml i.e., sufficient vitamin D levels were group II. We measured anthropometric measurements and metabolic parameters like lipid profile, fasting insulin, fasting blood sugars and HOMA-IR.

Results:
Eighty-five women were evaluated during the time period. The mean age of the study sample was 23.34 ± 4.587. Almost 40 % (n=34) of the study sample were vitamin D deficient and more than half of PCOS women (n=51) had sufficient vitamin D levels. Out of 85 women analyzed in this study, 48.23% were obese (Group I: 52.9% and 45.1% in group II). The vitamin D deficient group was comparable with the sufficient group in terms of anthropometric and biochemical parameters, except fasting serum insulin levels, which was infact lower in the vitamin D deficient group as compared to vitamin D sufficient group. None of the parameter showed any significant correlation with vitamin D.

Conclusion:
Hypovitaminosis is a common occurrence in PCOS women, necessitating the need for screening to prevent future adverse outcome. Further large-scale trials need to be done.

Published: April 2021

Background:
The aim of the study was to compare the dosimetry and acute toxicities of bone marrow sparing intensity-modulated radiation therapy (BMS-IMRT) and three-dimensional conformal radiation techniques (3DCRT) in locally advanced cervical cancer.

Materials and Methods:
This is a hospital-based prospective randomized study and histologically proven locally advanced cervical carcinoma patients were selected for the analysis. A total of thirty patients were equally allocated in the two treatment arms: BMS-IMRT and 3DCRT. External beam radiation therapy was delivered to a dose of 50 Gy/25# followed by high dose rate brachytherapy along with concurrent chemotherapy. The target volumes and the organs at risks were delineated. The BM comprised pelvic BM (PBM); lumbosacral BM (LSBM); ilium BM (IBM) and Ischium, Pubis and Pelvic femora together constituting lower PBM (LPBM).

Results:
BMS-IMRT was superior to the 3DCRT arm in reducing the dose to the PBM, small bowel, rectum, and bladder. On comparison of the BM dose volume histogram, the P value was significant (BMS IMRT vs. 3DCRT) in the higher dose range (30 and 40 Gy) for the IBM, LPBM, and whole pelvis BM. However, the difference in the low-dose irradiation (10 and 20 Gy) region was not significant. Furthermore, in the LSBM region, BMS IMRT was superior at all dose levels with no significant P value. Acute toxicities were higher in the 3DCRT arm.

Conclusion:
Thus, BMS-IMRT resulted in significant reduction of dose to the PBM. This can help in reducing the hematologic toxicities associated with pelvic radiation.

Published: April 2021

The adequacy or otherwise of cemetery space in Benin City was assessed in 2014, based on population projected from the 2006 census figures. The area of each cemetery was determined by running a Global Positioning System (GPS) traverse round each, which gave a total of 11.979 Ha. At a rate of 0.5 Ha of cemetery space to 1000 population, for 50 years, 702.749 Ha would be required for cemetery in Benin City. Results have shown that of these, only 1.68% is available for the teeming population of the city which comprised the three major Local Government Areas (LGAs). It is therefore recommended that cemeteries be established in new sites in each LGA, should reflect the population trends in order to achieve sustainable human body disposal in the city.Key Words: Death, Global Positioning System, Inhabitants, Population, Sites

Published: April 2021

The study examines the levels of contamination of domestic water sources in Maiduguri Metropolis area of Borno State based on their physicochemical and bacteriological properties. It was informed by the global concern on good drinking water quality which is an indicator of development level; hence the focus on domestic water sources to ascertain safety as water from unhygienic sources pose serious health challenges. The study dwelt on physicochemical and bacteriological parameters believed to have health implications. Experimental design was adopted, where water samples derived from four different sources i.e. from treated surface water, deep boreholes, wash boreholes and harvested rainwater were tested in the laboratory for pH, total dissolved solids (TDS), total hardness (TH), aluminium (Al), arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), cupper (Cu), cyanide (Cn), lead (Pb), fluoride (Fl) and nitrate (NO3). Also tested were faecal coliform (E. coli) and total coliform counts in the samples. The results showed that levels of physicochemical parameters are within the acceptable limit of WHO mostly in samples from deep boreholes and treated surface water sources. Samples from wash boreholes and harvested rainwater show escalated levels of some of the physicochemical parameters. The two sources also did not yield zero E. coli count. The study concludes that water from wash boreholes and harvested rainwater sources potent health risk. Thorough epidemiological study to determine health implications of drinking water from wash boreholes and harvested rainwater in the study area was offered as recommendation.Keywords: Domestic Water, Contamination, Boreholes, Diseases

Authors: Rabia Latif  , Nazish Rafique  
Published: April 2021

BACKGROUND፡ Studies reporting prediabetes prevalence in young Saudis are almost a decade old. The present study determined prediabetes prevalence and its associated risk factors (body composition, lipid profile, blood pressure and physical activity) in young Saudi females.METHODS: Three hundred Saudi females (18-20 years old), studying in year 2 and 3 at Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University, were categorized as normoglycemic or prediabetic based on fasting plasma glucose criteria of World Health Organization (WHO) and American Diabetes Association (ADA). Anthropometric measurements, lipid profile, atherogenic indices, and physical activity data were compared. Association between fasting blood glucose and study variables was found by Bivariate analysis (Spearman Correlation for non-parametric variables and Pearson correlation for parametric) followed by Binary Logistic Regression analysis.RESULTS: Prevalence of prediabetes by WHO and ADA criteria were 11.3% and 18.7% respectively. Systolic, diastolic and mean arterial pressures, waist circumference, waist-hip and waiststature-ratios were significantly raised in prediabetics compared to normoglycemic (WHO criteria p-values; 0.03, 0.003, 0.005, 0.01, 0.01, 0.04 respectively; ADA criteria 0.04, 0.001, 0.02, 0.02, 0.03, 0.01 respectively). For each unit increase in systolic, diastolic and mean arterial pressures, and waist circumference, the odds of becoming prediabetic increased by a factor of 1.02, 1.05, 1.04 and 1.03 respectively by WHO criteria: and 1.01, 1.03, 1.02, and 1.02 respectively by ADA criteria. CONCLUSION: Substantial numbers of young females in our university are suffering from prediabetes. An increase in systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial pressures and waist circumference are significant risk factors for prediabetes in young females.

American Evangelicals
Authors: Quosigk Ashlee 
Published: April 2021

Ashlee Quosigk explores the diversity of opinion within the largest religious group in the US—Evangelical Christians—on the topic of Islam.
Evangelicals are often characterized as monolithically antagonistic toward Muslims. This book challenges that stereotype, exposing the sharp divides that exist among Evangelicals on Islam, and examines why there is division. Drawing on qualitative research on two congregations in the US, as well as on popular Evangelical leaders, this book details the surprisingly diverse views Evangelicals hold on Muhammad, the Qur’an, interfaith dialogue, syncretism, and politics. This research is invaluable for providing a better understanding of what Evangelicals think, and why.
The book also offers insight into the problem of why conflict exists and why Evangelicals differ, while advancing culture war theory and qualitative methods. Specifically, it explores differences in moral authority (assumptions that guide one’s perceptions of the world) among Evangelicals and explains how those differences influence their views on Islam. The findings are relevant to religious relations worldwide as everyone appeals to moral authority (for example, orthodox authority such as the Bible or progressivist authority such as intuition) irrespective of their geographic location
INFLUÊNCIA DA IMUNIDADE SOBRE A CAVIDADE ORAL: REVISÃO DE LITERATURA
Authors: Borba Thalita Oliveira Da Silva Borba , Costa Katharine Dizirrê De Melo , Vieira-Neto Irineu Clementino 
Published: April 2021

Introdução: As doenças autoimunes são problemas causados pela reação do sistema imunológico em relação aos tecidos e órgãos do próprio corpo. A microbiota oral é composta por uma grande variedade de microrganismos que frequentemente podem servir como agentes benéficos, prevenindo a colonização da cavidade oral por agentes patogênicos. No entanto, uma desarmonia sistêmica em relação a fatores imunológicos pode causar prejuízos que repercutem na cavidade oral. Objetivos: Reforçar o cirurgião-dentista a diagnosticar patologias orais advindas de desordens imunológicas, bem como, discutir os cuidados que podem ser tomados no tratamento odontológico de pacientes que apresentem manifestações orais. Material e Método: Foi realizada uma revisão de literatura, com busca por artigos publicados no SciELO, PubMed e Google Acadêmico entre 2017 e 2021. Os artigos foram selecionados através do cruzamento de descritores, seguido pela leitura dos títulos e resumos. Foram utilizados durante a busca os termos ‘’Doenças autoimunes’’, ‘’Imunidade’’ e “Microbiota oral” combinados entre si. Resultados: Pessoas com doenças imunológicas estão em risco de adquirir problemas de saúde bucal. Dentre elas pode-se destacar síndrome de Sjögren, doença de Crohn, lúpus eritematoso sistêmico ou cutâneo e doença de Addison. Suas intercorrências possuem achados que podem ser identificados na cavidade oral como boca seca, síndrome de queimação bucal, língua rígida, crescimento excessivo da gengiva e maior risco de cárie e doença periodontal. A prevalência é maior em mulheres de meia idade por também possuir relação com fatores hormonais, podendo ter início em qualquer idade. Homens também podem ser afetados, porém com menor intensidade. Considerações finais: As lesões orais podem ser o primeiro ou mesmo o único sinal das doenças imunológicas. O cirurgião-dentista possui papel decisivo no diagnóstico e acompanhamento destes pacientes. Assim, cabe uma anamnese e exame clínico minuciosamente detalhado. O profissional pode permitir a detecção das mesmas em estágios precoces e, consequentemente, providenciar uma adequada terapêutica minimizando assim o risco de envolvimento de outros órgãos, levando a um melhor prognóstico e qualidade de vida dos pacientes.
