Authors: Sannigrahi Neelanjan , Chaudhuri Arunima , Adhya Debasis 
Published: July 2021

Background:
The global burdens of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and obesity are rising, producing enormous losses of life and disability-adjusted life-years in both developed and developing nations. Stress is a modifiable risk factor for the development of CVD. Postmenopausal women with osteoarthritis (OA) of knee joint may often report episodes of knee instability limiting their daily activities and this causes an added stress.

Aims:
To evaluate the effects of mindfulness-based meditation on functional outcome of OA knee and to study the effect of mindfulness-based meditation on perceived stress scores (PSSs) and markers of obesity in postmenopausal women.

Materials and Methods:
This interventional study was conducted on forty postmenopausal women in a tertiary care hospital of Eastern India after taking institutional ethical clearance and informed consent of the patients. Presumptive stressful life events scale (PSLES) scores and PSSs of the patients were assessed. Patients with PSLES scores more than 200 were included in the study. They were all on nonvegetarian diet and came from the middle socioeconomic class. Patients were randomly allocated into two groups and received either balancing exercises and mindfulness-based meditation (Group A) or balancing exercises (Group B). Patients of both groups were age matched. Body mass index (BMI) and waist/hip ratios were measured. The outcome measures were visual analog scale (VAS) and the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) scores.

Results:
There was no significant difference in age, PSLES and PSS scores, and WOMAC and VAS scores between the two groups before intervention. AGE Group A 62.4 ± 4.16 versus Group B 62.15 ± 3.75, P = 0.85; BMI Group A 26.6 ± 1.97 versus Group B 26.2 ± 1.002, P = 0.41; waist/hip Group A 0.833 ± 0.033 versus Group B 0.832 ± 0.03, P = 0.96; PSLES Group A 296.3 ± 34.95 versus Group B 291.8 ± 25.2, P = 0.65; PSS Group A 33.38.1 ± 1.97 versus Group B 32.8 ± 2.86, P = 0.185. PSS scores (20.75 ± 1.9 vs. 27.1 ± 1.65; P < 0.0001) and waist/hip ratio were significantly less in Group A as compared to Group B following intervention. Group A had significantly lower WOMAC (38.1 ± 4.03 vs. 50.8 ± 3.78; P < 0.0001) and VAS (4.35 ± 0.77 vs. 5.75 ± 0.68; P < 0.0001) scores as compared to Group B after practice of balancing exercises along with mindfulness-based meditation. Waist/hip ratio was significantly less in the group practicing mindfulness-based meditation (Group A) as compared to Group B.

Conclusion:
The results of the present study indicate that balancing exercises when practiced along with stress relaxation exercises are more effective in improving the functional ability of OA knee in postmenopausal women.

Authors: Singh Resham , Dhadwal Dineshwar Singh , Mahajan Anjali , Barwal Vijay Kumar 
Published: July 2021

Background:
Delays in diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) is still a problem at all levels of health care. Understanding the etiology of these delays is essential for all stakeholders involved in TB control. This study was done to find the delays related to health-care seeking behavior, diagnosis, and major contributors to such delays among newly diagnosed patients of TB.

Methods:
This cross-sectional study was conducted from August 1, 2018, to July 2019 among the patients of TB diagnosed at Indira Gandhi Medical College, Shimla. A consecutive sample of 105 patients was enrolled for the study. Newly diagnosed cases aged 18 years and above were included in the study. Prevalence ratio with 95% confidence interval was calculated for risk factors associated with the identified delays.

Results:
At the patient level around 55% reported a delay of more than 14 days in seeking care with a median delay of 45 days (interquartile range [IQR] of 30–60 days). Nearly 67% patients were found to have a diagnostic delay of more than 7 days at the health-care provider level (Median 30 days; IQR 12.5–54.7 days). Delayed initiation of treatment after 7 days of diagnosis was found in 6.6% cases (Median 10 days; IQR 8–15 days) and all of these were patients of extra pulmonary TB. Delay was significantly associated (P = 0.01) with patients who travelled <5 km to reach the health facility.

Conclusion:
Inter-sectoral coordination, refresher trainings of health-care providers, patient education and capacity building for diagnostics at peripheral institutions can reduce delay in diagnosis and treatment of TB.

Discusión y conclusión. El análisis del incremento de malestar emocional en la población estudiantil en el distanciamiento social por COVID-19 requiere incluir las determinantes sociales y los componentes socioculturales de las emociones para explicar los procesos socioemocionales ante situaciones de emergencia.

ABSTRACT
Objectives. Identify and analyze the socio-emotional processes of university students resulting from social distancing measures for COVID-19. Method. Exploratory, descriptive, quantitative cross-sectional research carried out in a student community (n = 3,194). Psychosocial effects and socio-emotional processes generated by social distancing were investigated through the use an online questionnaire. The increase and decrease in emotions before and after the start of the Healthy Distance Days was analyzed with Student's t-test. Results. Before and during COVID-19 distancing emotions of wellbeing and discomfort were reported, a significant difference (p <0.05) was observed in all the emotions evaluated with the exceptions of stress (women t = 0.331; p = 0.740; men t = 1.297; p = 0.197), anxiety (diverse t = 2.666; p = 0.183) and depression (diverse t = 1.30958; p = 0.195). Personal and family financial situations generate greater concern in the population (70%) and the consumption of alcoholic beverages and tobacco in men (30 to 32 years; 46%) stands out as a strategy to improve mood. Discussion and Conclusion. The analysis of the increase in emotional distress in the student population during social distancing for COVID-19 requires including the social determinants and the socio-cultural components of emotions to explain the socio-emotional processes in emergency situations.

Background. Patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) may have incomplete vaccination againts different vaccines leads to lower protective levels of anti-vaccine antibodies.The aim of the study – to evaluate the rate and the main factors of incomplete vaccination against measels, parotitis, rubella (MMR), and diphtheria in JIA patients.Methods. In the present study were included data 170 JIA (55 boys and 115 girls) aged from 2 to 17 years, who received scheduled vaccination before the age of 2 years and before JIA onset against measles, parotitis, diphtheria and rubella. Incomplete vaccination means the reduced number of vaccine to age. In all patients the IgG anti-vaccine antibodies levels were detected with ELISA. Data presented with odds ratio ()OR) with 95 confidence interval (CI).Results. Incomplete vaccination against MMR was in 50 (32.5%) of children less than 6 years. Incomplete vaccination against diphtheria was in 6/16 (37.5%) of children less than 6 year, in 53/110 (48.2%) of children aged 6–14 years and in 26/44 (59.1%) of the JIA patients more than 14 years. The main predictors in logistic regression for incomplete vaccination for MMR were: onset age <4 years (OR=12.2 [95% CI: 5.0–28.9]; p=0.0000001), JIA duration >3.1 years (OR=4.4 [95% CI: 2.0–9.9]; p=0.0002), methotrexate duration >3 years (OR=5.7 [95% CI 2.7–12.0]; p=0.0000012); biologic treatment (OR=2.5 [95% CI: 1.3–4.9]; p=0.008) and treatment >1 biologic (OR=3.3 [95% CI: 1.1–10.4]; p=0.002); for diphtheria were: JIA duration >3.1 years (OR=3.4 [95% CI: 1.8–6.5]; p=0.0002), methotrexate duration >2.8 years (OR=4.1 [95% CI: 2.1–8.1]; p=0.00004), biologic treatment (OR=2.4 [95% CI: 1.3–4.4]; p=0.006). In the multiple regression only JIA onset age (p=0.00001) and duration of methotrexate (p=0.003) were predictors of incomplete vaccination against MMR. Methotrexate duration (p=0.005) and biologics treatment (p=0.05) were predictors of incomplete vaccination against diphtheria.Conclusion. The main predictor of incomplete vaccination was younger onset age of JIA. Children received more intensive immunosupression usually have scheduled vaccination rarely which leads to increased number of patients without protective antibody levels. These facts indicate the attitude of physicians parents to vaccination in immunocompromised children. Further investigations required for assessment of safety of vaccinations in children with rheumatic diseases may be a factor for changing this prejudice.

RETHINKING A CULTURAL POLICY FOR NATIONAL SECURITY IN NIGERIA
Authors: Agaku Emmanuel Ayila , Agena Martins Moses 
Published: July 2021

Nigeria is in pressing need of a cultural policy that could promote cultural values. The challenge of cultural erosion has affected the capacity of the country to ensure the security and welfare of the people for the sustainable development of the country. This article, therefore, examines the cultural dimensions of the country’s national security problem. In addition to deploying qualitative research methodology, the researchers adopt a theoretical exploration of secondary sources for the article. The paper x-rays some related literature that unveil many security challenges that have to do with conflicts in the way of life of the people, such as, the Muslim extremists of Marwa, Maitatsine, El-zakzaki and their liberal counterparts in Kano, Maiduguri, Zaria, Gombe, Yola and so on, at various times. Countless instances of ethno-religious conflicts have occurred between Christians and Muslims in Bauchi, Kano, Kafanchan, Zango-Kataf, Kaduna, and Nasarawa among other parts of Nigeria. There have been sectarian conflicts in Nasarawa, Benue, some parts of South-East, South-West and South-South of Nigeria. More recently, there has emerged some difficult insecurity problems characterised by political violence, Boko Haram terrorists, banditry, kidnapping, cattle rustling, Fulani herdsmen attacks, militancy and so on. In addition to the above-mentioned plethora of insecurity, there are on daily occurrence instances of corruption and crimes such as suicide attacks, armed-robbery, oil theft, rape and so on. The article attempted a theoretical matrix of ‘culture of security’ and ‘security of culture’. The paper therefore recommends a cultural policy could promote cultural education, values, sensitivity, and unity, as well as commitment through participatory communication by nationalist individuals and their involvement in the nation-building efforts, necessary to avert imminent crisis in the country.

Authors: Ukwuru Sandra , Nwankwo Prisca 
Published: July 2021

Social media is the 21st-century media that has given every user an equal opportunity to publish news without passing through any form of gatekeeping, editorial, or professional scrutiny. This means that it has become a natural home for the spread of fake news even on the recent coronavirus with its consequent health implications. The authors deployed available materials and literature to discuss the burning issues surrounding fake news as misleading information on social media, especially how social media has become a natural home for fake news on coronavirus. More so, this paper reviewed the literature on the effects of fake news on coronavirus and then motivations for sharing fake news online as a way to provide a start-off point for an understanding of why social media misinformation on Corona virus has spread. The authors concluded by presenting a gap in literature, in addition to a research agenda for studies on the spread of health-related disinformation in Nigeria.
E-HEALTH LITERACY AND AVAILABILITY OF INTERNET WELLNESS INFORMATION ON FAST FOOD AMONG ADOLESCENTS IN AWKA SOUTH, ANAMBRA STATE
Authors: Chukwuemeka Gloria 
Published: July 2021

This study focused on e-health literacy and availability of Internet wellness information on fast food among adolescents. The avalanche of data on the Internet indicates that adolescents are likely to be influenced by online information on fast food. This study examined how exposure to online information induces dietary behaviour change among adolescents of Awka South, Anambra State. The study examined two theories: Health Belief Model that explains health behaviour and possible reasons for non-compliance with recommended health actions, and uses-and-gratifications approach which examines why and how people actively seek out particular media to satisfy specific needs. The study adopted a survey of 400 respondents using Cochran sample determination technique. The questionnaire was the instrument for data collection. Findings of the study showed that online wellness information induces dietary behaviour change and increased exposure to negative information about a product reduces the chances of its continued consumption.

El siguiente artículo de reflexión tiene como objetivo analizar el contexto de la protesta social en Colombia; en particular, el movimiento social popular que, como movimiento de masas, concentra el mayor número de manifestantes y que, a través de su causa, puede llegar a aumentar la confrontación con la Fuerza Pública, generando una latente amenaza de disturbio social que en muchas ocasiones adopta un carácter violento.
Por ende, pretende contribuir a la formulación de postulados que ayudarán a los tomadores de decisiones para la formulación o estructuración de un proyecto de doctrina en ese particular o fortalecer los estudios ya realizados referentes al tema. El texto es desarrollado a partir de cuatro apartados: 1) Amenazas armadas en zonas de disturbios sociales, 2) Conformación de las ZVTN (Zonas Veredales de Transición y Normalización), 3) ZRC (Zonas de Reserva Campesina), y 4) Zonas de Resguardos Indígenas en Colombia.

El artículo presenta un mapa de la evolución y estimación del debate académico sobre las unfaking news, como resultado de los avances de las redes sociales y los escenarios digitales dispuestos en la actualidad. Para ello, se recolectaron y analizaron 1.973 publicaciones científicas indexada en WoS y Scopus, entre 2014 y 2019, relacionadas con fake news, disinformation y misinformation. A partir de indicadores bibliométricos, el uso de herramientas de análisis de redes y del algoritmo ETS se observa que 2016 es el año que ha servido de catalizador del debate académico alrededor del tema aquí abordado. Un debate caracterizado hasta ahora, entre otras cosas, por una falta de criterios uniformes sobre los términos aquí estudiados, un marcado dominio de enfoques técnicos y un claro dominio de editoriales e instituciones académicas anglosajonas. En el que los términos misinformation y fake news terminarán centralizando el debate sobre la desinformación, a nivel académico.
“As vozes daquele tempo”: imaginário da infância e do patriarcalismo na poesia de Manuel Bandeira (1924-1930).
Authors: Alves Paulo Cavalcanti Felipe , Muniz de Albuquerque Junior Durval 
Published: July 2021

Neste artigo, investigamos a construção de um imaginário da infância na poesia de Manuel Bandeira por meio da análise do poema “Evocação do Recife”, escrito em torno de 1925, e de sua presença em outros poemas posteriores do autor como “Profundamente” e “Vou-me embora pra Pasárgada”, ambos compilados na obra Libertinagem, de 1930. Em nossa abordagem, destacamos a ligação indissolúvel entre este “mundo da infância” criado pela poesia de Bandeira e o imaginário do patriarcalismo freyreano, ou seja, o “mundo dos avós” que Gilberto Freyre tentava recuperar em seus escritos para o Diário de Pernambuco durante os anos 1920.
Paternalism to Partnership: The Administration of Indian Affairs, 1786–2021
Authors: Dejong David 
Published: July 2021

Paternalism to Partnership provides a biographical sketch of each head of Indian affairs between 1786 and 2021 in context with each commissioner’s political philosophy. These administrators have been responsible for enforcing an Indian policy as directed by the president and/or the Congress but also influenced by their own political and social philosophy. From 1786-1848, authority was delegated to a superintendent of Indian affairs, a superintendent of the Indian trading houses, a superintendent of the Office of Indian Trade, a chief clerk, and a commissioner of Indian affairs, all of whom reported to the secretary of War. Since 1849, the commissioner of Indian affairs, and after 1977, the assistant secretary for Indian affairs have reported to the secretary of the Interior. Today, the BIA is administered by the assistant secretary for Indian affairs—all of whom have been Native Americans. Previous studies focused on the commissioners, completely overlooking the superintendents that preceded them and the colonial and early American antecedents. David DeJong’s documentary edition is the first to provide an understanding of the political philosophy of each head of the Indian bureau through the emphasis of policy.
