Effect of Endometrial Thickness and duration of Estrogen Supplementation on In Vitro Fertilization-Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection Outcomes in Fresh Ovum/Embryo Donation Cycles
Authors: Patel Jayesh Amrutlal , Patel Azadeh Jayesh , Banker Jwal Manish , Shah Sandeep I. , Banker Manish 
Published: June 2021

Background:
There is no consensus regarding optimal endometrial thickness and duration of estrogen supplementation in embryo transfer cycles, at present.

Aims:
To observe the effect of endometrial thickness and/or duration of estrogen supplementation on in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) outcomes in fresh ovum/embryo donation cycles.

Settings and Design:
This was a retrospective observational study. The study was conducted from January 2015 to November 2017.

Subjects and Methods:
Nine hundred and fifty seven fresh blastocyst transfer cycles in the recipients of oocyte/embryo donation regardless of reproductive history and diagnosis conducted at Nova IVF Fertility, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India. Of these, 315 women had single embryo transfer (SET), while 642 had double embryo transfer (DET). Only fresh blastocysts derived from oocytes of young donors (≤30 years) and transferred in a uniform hormone replacement therapy (HRT) cycle were included. The effect of endometrial thickness and duration of estrogen on live birth rate (LBR) and other IVF/ICSI outcomes were analyzed.

Statistical Analysis:
Univariate logistic regression.

Results:
A significant improvement in LBR was noted in the recipients with each millimeter increase in endometrial thickness starting from 6 mm after transfer of either single (odds ratio [OR] = 1.3, P = 0.003) or double (OR = 1.14, P = 0.0218) blastocysts. Lower LBR was observed in recipients having SET and who received estrogen supplementation of <10 days (OR = 0.72; P = 0.02). Implantation rate and clinical pregnancy rate also improved significantly with endometrial thickness, but there was no change in clinical abortion rate and ectopic pregnancy rate.

Conclusions:
After minimizing the possible oocyte factor by including only donor oocytes and that of COH using a uniform HRT protocol, LBR improved with each millimeter increase in endometrial thickness starting from 6 mm. Shorter duration of estrogen supplementation (<10 days) reduced the chances of live birth in recipients after transfer of a single blastocyst.
Effectiveness of Saptamrita Loha on Panduroga (iron deficiency anemia) in children an open-label prospective clinical trial
Authors: Hiremath Virupaxayya , Kulkarni Reena 
Published: June 2021

Introduction:

Panduroga is a systemic disorder that presents with pallor; it is correlated to anemia. Iron deficiency is the most common nutritional deficiency on the globe that contributes to the highest incidences of anemia. Oral iron therapy is the treatment in iron deficiency anemia (IDA), which is associated with adverse reactions such as gastrointestinal irritations on long-term usage. Saptamritaloha is a frequently prescribed herbo-mineral drug from Ayurveda pharmacopeia in the context of eye disorders and it is also used to treat Panduroga. Hence, Saptamritaloha was subjected to a safety and efficacy trial. The aim of the trial was to evaluate the effectiveness of Saptamritalohavati in children with Panduroga (IDA).

Materials and Methods:
An open-label, controlled, prospective clinical trial in children aged 12–16 years was conducted over a period of two months. Assessment was done based on changes in clinical features and complete blood count analysis before and after therapy. The changes were assessed using paired and unpaired t test, Friedman test, and Wilcoxon sign-rank test.

Results:
A total of 43 children (22 in the study group and 21 in the control group) were registered in the trial, out of whom 20 in each trial and the control group completed the study. The present study shows that Saptamritaloha is effective in improving the clinical features and hematological parameters significantly and the results were comparable with the standard control used, namely Dhatriloha. The mean improvement in hemoglobin (Hb) was 1.17 g% in the trial group during the course of treatment (P < 0.001). No adverse drug reactions were noted in the study.

Discussion:

Saptamritaloha vati increases Hb and red blood corpuscles (RBC), packed cell volume (PCV), and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) by virtue of its ingredients. The herbal ingredients in the formulation, namely Triphala (group of three drugs, namely Haritaki [Terminalia chebula Retz.], Bibitaka [Terminalia bellirica (Gaertn.)Roxb], Amalaki [Phyllanthus emblica L], Yashtimadhu [Glycyrrhiza glabra L], Madhu [Honey], and Ghrita [Ghee]), possess Tridoshashamana, Anulomana, and Rasayana property, which aids in better bioavailability, drug absorption and also minimizes the gut irritation after oral iron usage.

Conclusion:

Saptamritaloha is effective in the management of Panduroga in children.

Overall, 15 subjects affected with CP were administered with Ayurveda treatment modalities that are inclusive of Udwarthana (dry powder massage), Sarvanga Abhyanaga (oil massage), Sarvanga Parisheka (pouring of warm liquid over a desired body part), Shirodhara (pouring of warm liquid over the head), Upanaha (warm poultice), Matra Basti (medicated enema), and Karnapoorana (administering warm oil into the ear canals) for a period of 15 days. The subjects were assessed before and after treatment for spasticity, muscle power, and range of movements of joints. The data were collected by using a case report form designed for the study. Such collected data were tabulated and analyzed by using Statistical package for social sciences (SPSS, version 20) by using an appropriate statistical test.

Results:
The intervention was found to be effective in reducing spasticity as well as in improving the movement of joints at P < 0.05.

Conclusion:
Holistic Ayurveda treatment modalities can be beneficially implemented for treating spasticity in children with CP.
Clinical efficacy of Narayan Churna in alcohol addiction
Authors: Charak Sandeep , Sharma Monika , Porte Sharad 
Published: June 2021

Background:
Alcohol, alcoholism, and alcohol withdrawal have been mentioned in Ayurveda under the heading of Madya (alcohol), Madatya (alcoholism), and Panapkaram (alcohol withdrawal), respectively. Alcohol abuse is widespread in most parts of the world, and alcohol addiction is one of the major problems in society. According to the WHO, 38.3% of the population in the world consumes alcohol. An individual older than 15 years of age consumed 6.2 liters of alcohol annually. In fact, there are dozens of risk factors that play a role in the development of alcohol addiction.

Aim:
To assess the clinical efficacy of Narayan Churna, Tagaradi Kwath Ghan Vati, and Bhumyamalaki Ghan Vati in alcohol addiction and withdrawal symptoms.

Materials and Methods:
The clinical studies were conducted by the single-blinded random control method; this method compared the clinical efficacy of Narayan Churna with Ashtang Lavan Churna. Supportive drugs such as Tagaradi Kwath Ghan vati and Bhumyamalaki Ghanvati have been given in both groups to manage the hepatotoxicity and they control the withdrawal effects such as insomnia anxiety and agitation, respectively. The clinical manifestations of alcohol withdrawal were assessed by the Clinical Institute Withdrawal Assessment-Alcohol revised (CIWA-Ar) scale before and after treatment. Clinical manifestation of alcohol withdrawals observed in between 5 and 10h of stoppage of alcohol was considered as a baseline for before treatment; clinical manifestation of withdrawals was considered after the completion of one month for after treatment.

Result:
In both the study and control groups, 13.3% of the patients showed excellent relief. In both the control and study groups, 26.6 % and 13.3% of patients showed moderate relief, respectively.

Conclusion:
Overall, 36.66% of patients were found to be de-addicted during the entire clinical trial, which is a big achievement for Ayurveda science.
A study on shelf life (Saviryatha Avadhi) of herbal drugs W.S.R. to Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus willd) Churna
Authors: Rao Polepalli M. , Gupta K.L. Virupaksha 
Published: June 2021

Background:
Ayurveda texts clearly described the shelf life of various formulations. Ayurveda herbs lose their medicinal properties over a period of time. As per Sharangadhara Samhita, the shelf life (Saviryatha avadhi) of Churna is two months. As per the Drugs and Cosmetic Act, the shelf life of Churna is two years. Hence, this study is planned to ascertain Saviryata Avadhi of Shatavari Churna (powder), which is a commonly used dosage form.

Materials and Methods:
Organoleptic, physicochemical characteristics and high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) techniques are employed for analysis. The results of fresh Shatavari Churna sample are compared with those of a sample of two months, six months, and one-year-old Churna is stored in five porcelain jars.

Results:
Total ash, acid-insoluble ash, Ph value, alcohol-soluble extractive, and water-soluble extract values almost fluctuate within the ranges mentioned in API, Part 1, Volume IV. Steroidal saponins are the main biologically active constituents of Asparagus; however, the percentages of saponins were 33.20%, 31.15%, and 15.10% in fresh, one-month-, two-month-, and six-month-old samples, respectively. In one-year-old samples, saponins are completely absent. The absence of steroidal saponins indicates the expiry of the sample.

Conclusion:
Shelf life of Shatavari Churna may be considered as six months based on the active component percentage, if stored as per classics.
Analgesic efficacy of ultrasound-guided continuous quadratus lumborum block versus continuous paravertebral block in radical cystectomy
Authors: Ahmad Sabry Mohammad Hazem I. , Hieba Amr R. , Ammar Ramadan A. 
Published: June 2021

Background
Various techniques of regional anesthesia have been used in abdominal surgery including thoracic epidural, thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB), and transversus abdominis plane block. However, new techniques such as quadratus lumborum (QL) block are tested to detect its efficacy.

Purpose
To compare between intraoperative and postoperative analgesic effects of ultrasound-guided continuous QL block and continuous TPVB in patients operated for radical cystectomy (primary outcome). Side effects, length of hospital stay, and patient satisfaction are the secondary outcome.

Patients and methods
Sixty patients admitted to the Urosurgery Department at Alexandria Main University Hospital for radical cystectomy were randomly assigned into two groups, 30 patients for each group: group I received ultrasound-guided QL block with 0.3 ml/kg bupivacaine 0.25% on each side with catheter insertion for maintenance doses of 0.1 ml/kg/h on each side while group II received ultrasound-guided TPVB with 0.3 ml/kg bupivacaine 0.25% on each side with catheter insertion for maintenance doses of 0.1 ml/kg/h on each side.

Results
There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups regarding postoperative visual analog scale score, first request of analgesia, and length of hospital stay; however, there was statistically significant difference between the two groups as regards heart rate and mean blood pressure at the 1st, 4th, 6th, and 7th hours during the intraoperative periods.

Conclusion
It can be concluded that there is no difference in analgesic efficacy, opioid consumption, and hospital stay between continuous bilateral QL block and continuous bilateral TPVB after radical cystectomy. These data suggest that QL block is a viable alternative for delivering multimodal analgesia in radical cystectomy.
Por uma cartografia netnográfica em tempos pandêmicos
Authors: Silveira Éderson Luís 
Published: June 2021

Em tempos pandêmicos, torna-se cada vez mais necessário pensar acerca do desenvolvimento de pesquisas em meio à situação de emergência do distanciamento social promovida pela proliferação desenfreada do coronavírus. Nesse contexto, situando esta pesquisa no contexto dos estudos educacionais e culturais, busca-se pensar ensaísticamente acerca da existência de uma pedagogização acerca dos modos de reproduzir o negacionismo em meio à pandemia. Isso porque essa reprodução da negação coletiva sobre o coronavírus também produz formas de subjetivação e, também, incita ao desenvolvimento de condutas e contracondutas. Para isso, o método sugerido é o que está sendo intitulado neste artigo de cartografia netnográfica.

Authors: Juliawati Fransiska , Hendi Hendi 
Published: June 2021

Banyak yang beranggapan menjadi manusia baru cukup dibaptis terima Yesus dan diselamatkan, bahkan orang percaya sekalipun masih banyak yang beranggapan seperti itu. Untuk itu penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memberi penjelasan tentang konsep manusia baru menurut Kolose 3:1-4. Metode yang yang digunakan yaitu metode pendekatan analisis teks yaitu fokus pada teks itu sendiri dan dikomparasikan dengan teks kitab lainnya. Hasil penelitian menyatakan bahwa berdasarkan Kolose 3:1- 4, manusia baru adalah manusia yang telah dibangkitkan bersama Kristus melalui baptisan sehingga tidak lagi memikirkan hal duniawi melainkan memikirkan hal surgawi yang ada Kristus di dalamnya. Mereka yang berlaku demikianlah yang disebut sebagai manusia baru yang terus menerus akan diperbaharui di dalam Kristus sampai mengalami Theosis atau menjadi seperti Kristus.
Verbal content analysis for the study of Verisimilitude (V1) in the System for Analysis of Validity in Evaluation (SAVE)
Authors: Olivares Marta Grau 
Published: June 2021

In the SAVE Metaprotocol (López, et al, 2018), Verisimilitude (V1) refers to that which has the appearance of truth, possibility of being believed, and with "absence of subjective incredibility".
Corresponding to this section is everything related to the analysis of the content of the verbal message and which gives internal coherence to the subject's statement. This phase is obtained directly through the interview with the subject, which we record in order to be able to carry out the content analysis later. It can be using a criterial, structural, or linguistic analysis, or simply employing a study of the communicative pattern.
Some examples of content analysis are Statement Validity Analysis (SVA) with its Criteria-Based Content Analysis or CBCA and its validity list. The CBCA is composed of 19 criteria used to assess the content of the statements and which to date has been admitted as court evidence in cases of possible child sexual offense. It is administered together with a validity checklist and its value as evidence depends on the scope of application (Köhnken, Manzanero & Scott 2015).
The instrument called Reality Monitoring (RM), like the previous one is a tool used to assess the credibility of the testimony and that focuses on the semantic aspects that differentiate a true statement from a false or not very credible one (Raye & Johnson, 1980). Although in this aspect, we should not make the mistake of confusing credibility with veracity, since when assessing a testimony the truth as such does not exist, and depends on the functioning of our memory, which is not like a tape recorder and is not static, but is constantly exposed to changes and distortions. According to this model, the origin of our memories comes from two basic sources: External Memories, generated from the perception of real situations; and Internal Memories, the product of our imagination. The unconscious reasoning process that our mind follows to decide which information comes from an external source and which forms an internal one is called Reality Monitoring. Four qualitative attributes allow us to differentiate between these two types of memories:

Authors: Jara Marcelo Tampier , Aguilar Giordanno Nobizelli , Sapag María Jesús Salles , Salas Matías Jorge Villagrán , Kornberg Sofía Adela Gamboa , Osses Sebastián Cristobal Molina 
Published: June 2021

Introducción: La situación de inmigración puede generar cambios emocionales profundos producto de lo que implica llegar a un nuevo país; el impacto cultural, el idioma, la disminución de redes de apoyo e incluso la discriminación. La Depresión Postparto (DPP) es un trastorno psiquiátrico que se extiende -según diversas definiciones- hasta 6 meses luego del parto, y su inicio y severidad es producido por numerosos factores, dentro de los cuales podría encontrarse la inmigración. Objetivo: Realizar un estudio exploratorio a mujeres inmigrantes de Chile, pesquisar su riesgo de tener DPP de acuerdo a la Escala de Depresión Postparto de Edimburgo y relacionar esto según las variables sociodemográficas recopiladas durante la entrevista. Metodología: la muestra incluyó 19 mujeres inmigrantes, con hijos entre 2 a 6 meses de edad nacidos en Chile, a quienes se le realizó una encuesta que abarcaba tanto datos personales; nacionalidad, convivencia con pareja, ocupación, partos previos y percepción de acogida, entre otros, como también la Escala de Edimburgo. Para esto, se entrevistaron personas en la vía pública en sectores de Estación Central, Santiago que cumplieran con los criterios de inclusión. Resultados: De las 19 mujeres encuestadas, 5 de ellas resultaron con ≥10 puntos en la Escala de Edimburgo, correspondiendo a un 26,3% del total de la muestra, lo que significa que están en riesgo de padecer DPP. Conclusiones: No se logró identificar una relación estadísticamente significativa entre el riesgo de desarrollar DPP y el ser inmigrante, ni entre la relación de riesgo de DPP con las variables sociodemográficas analizadas. Se requieren más estudios para evaluar esta hipótesis.
O CRISTO DE SARTRE
Authors: Caramico Soares Caio 
Published: June 2021

Bariona (1940) é a primeira peça de Jean-Paul Sartre, aquele em lançou as premissas básicas de seu teatro de situações. Foi escrita em um período crucial de sua vida, durante os meses que passou prisioneiro dos nazistas no campo de Trier. Sartre vive então uma verdadeira “conversão” a ideia de engajamento político. Outro dado importante é o recurso ao mito, mais exatamente à narrativa bíblica do nascimento de Cristo, como instrumento útil, antes de mais nada, para disfarçar a defesa filosófica e política da liberdade, pilar do existencialismo sartriano. O presente artigo examina essas diversas dimensões de peça, e explora dimensões mais profundas do diálogo de Sartre com a religião cristã, à luz da hermenêutica simbólica de Mircea Eliade e de argumentos nietzschianos sobre a “tradução-reinvenção” da História e o amor fati.

LOGOTERAPIA E ESPIRITUALIDADE: RECURSOS NOÉTICOS PARAO DISCENIMENTO VOCACIONAL E INTERVENÇÃOEM ADOLESCENTES E JOVENS
Authors: Maria Junger Angela 
Published: June 2021

O presente trabalho baseia-se nos pilares da ´própria logoterapia: o livre arbítrio, a vontade de sentido, e o sentido da vida. A logoterapia concentra-se na pessoa, procurando permitir-lhe refletir e tomar as decisões mais significativas para a sua própria vida. Na Logoterapia o conceito de espírito está ligado à nossa consciência que guia as nossas atitudes. Os estudos mostram que somos seres bio-psico-sociais, além dessas três dimensões, a logoterapia reconhece no ser-humano, uma quarta dimensão, a noológica, abrangendo acrescentando o espiritual ao psicológico, configurando o bio-psico-social e espiritual. Tal espiritualidade pode conduzir a uma religiosidade que se manifesta numa relação inconsciente com Deus, no instante em que lhe é dado sentido pela fé e se transcende a si mesma. A religiosidade manifesta-se na busca do ser humano pelo sentido supremo da vida, sem qualquer cunho institucional. De acordo com o filósofo Martin Heidegger, as pessoas são vocacionadas, porque acreditar, fundamentadas na vocação. Este discernimento da religiosidade nos adolescentes e jovens permite alcançar uma resposta vocacional consciente e adequada ao sentido da vida. Desta forma, a vocação pode responder aos anseios existenciais e aos vazios. O ser-humano é um ser que a existência suplanta o eu, o mundo, a autotranscedência, que acaba em autorrealização. A logoterapia contribui para intervenções existenciais em adolescentes e jovens, tais como o auto distanciamento, o diálogo de sentido socrático com vista ao noeticismo/espiritual e a autobiografia. O Objetivo de Vida é uma motivação fundamental para todo o ser humano.
