Background: Germs may infect an injured site via the tissues when the host's systemic and local defenses are compromised. Pus discharge may be a sign of a significant wound infection, requiring a follow-up operation to ensure sufficient draining. Additionally, generalized symptoms may appear, and returning home may need to be postponed. Objective was to identify the prevalence of post-operative wound infections among orthopedics patients with surgical implant tertiary care hospitals. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted at a tertiary care hospital from July 2023 to December 2023, involving 180 patients with closed long bone fractures. The patients were immune-competent, not diabetic, and older than 10 years. All patients underwent surgery using implants, with general anesthesia and a third-generation cephalosporin prophylactic antibiotic. Patients were monitored monthly for 6 months to monitor infection symptoms. Cultures were obtained from wound discharges, and patients experienced perioperative fever for two days following surgery. Data was collected and analyzed using the SPSS 22 version. The study aimed to improve the management of bone fractures. Results: A total of 180 patients were selected for the current study including both males (65.60 %) and females (34.4 %) with closed fractures. Most of them were above 31 years of age, furthermore, 20.5 % and 24.4 % of them were 41-50 as well as above 60 years of age. 13 (7.22 %) of them had developed them post-operatively. 0.76 % had pre-operative stays in the hospital for more than 10 days. Staphylococcus aureus was the most frequent 5 (38.6 %) bacteria. 6 (46.15 %) were managed by frequent irrigation along with 4 (30.76 %) by the administration of antibiotics. Conclusion: Post-operative infection is one most troublesome complication among implanted patients. in the current the prevalence of post-op infection is 7.22 % which is comparable in developing nations, but far higher than that in developed countries. As a result, it should be managed with early detection and treatment, as well as by eradicating the prevalent causes of wound infections following surgery that the present research identified.

Alternaria species are necrotic plant pathogens that cause dark spot disease to nearly one hundred host plants, affecting them from vegetative to reproductive stages. Infection typically appeared on leaves and stems as dark brownish to black spots that form concentric ring patterns as they enlarge, typically showing blight symptoms. The objective of the study was to characterize Alternaria species associated with radish leaf blight in Pakistan. In this study, a total of six isolates causing typical symptoms of leaf blight were collected from radish leaves (cv. Sufaid Pari) during a survey in February 2023 at the Vegetable Research Station Sahiwal (VRSS) Punjab, Pakistan. Being the first identification, all recovered isolates from symptomatic radish leaves were characterized based on morphological traits, pathogenicity and molecular analysis of internal transcribed spacer regions (ITS) of the 5.8S rDNA gene. Sequence analysis showed that radish isolates grouped to three Alternaria species: mainly A. brassicae, A. brassicicola and A. alternata respectively. Pathogenicity tests demonstrated that all isolates could produce similar necrotic lesions on detached radish leaves as observed during the field survey. Morphological characteristics act as a primary method for identifying Alternaria spp. although it is not feasible due to some Alternaria genera are morphologically related, consequently, molecular method of identification was sufficient for accurate species identification. This study represents is the first comprehensive investigation of Alternaria spp. causing leaf blight of radish in Pakistan.

This study examined the function of translation as a pedagogical instrument in English language education programs, highlighting its possible advantages and drawbacks as a learning technique. This study used a qualitative approach to gain data through documentation and interviews with EFL learners at the university. The findings indicate that translation can significantly aid language acquisition when employed in conjunction with communicative approaches, particularly by improving vocabulary acquisition, grammatical comprehension, and cultural awareness among learners. Equilibrating translation with alternative interactive language learning methods is crucial to prevent overreliance on the first language (L1), which could impede natural language processing in the target language (L2). It can be concluded that Translation, when combined with communicative methods, greatly supports language learning by boosting vocabulary, grammar, and cultural understanding.

Veratric Acid as a Potential Antidiabetic Agent: Molecular Docking and In vivo Enzyme Inhibition Studies with Insights from STz-NA Induced Diabetic Rat Model
Authors: Ganesan John Anbumani , Sarkar Tanima Debnath , Kowsalya Raju , Alphonsa A. Therasa 
Published: November 2024

Streptozotocin-nicotinamide (STz-NA) has proven to be an effective agent in inducing type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in experimental models due to its genotoxic impact on pancreatic β-cells. STz reduces nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) through the glucose transporter GLUT2, leading to cellular damage, DNA strand breaks, and cell death. Nicotinamide (NA), a biochemical precursor of NAD+ and poly-ADP-ribose-polymerase-1 (PARP-1) inhibitor, plays a crucial protective role by modulating NAD+ levels, which are essential in ATP production and other metabolic processes. Excessive DNA damage, however, triggers PARP-1 over-activation, depleting cellular reserves and resulting in cell necrosis.
This study further investigates the antidiabetic and hepatoprotective effects of Veratric Acid (VA) by comparing it to Glibenclamide. Utilizing Computer-Aided Drug Design (CADD), VA was identified as a structurally similar compound with potential antidiabetic properties. Molecular docking studies targeting proteins, such as GLUT-1 (PDB ID: 4PYP) and 1BSI, along with in vivo assays in STz-NA-induced diabetic Wistar rats, were conducted. VA demonstrated significant binding affinity and molecular interactions comparable to standard antidiabetic agents, showing inhibitory effects on liver enzymes SGOT and SGPT, and supporting its potential role in diabetes management.
Docking and histopathology results revealed that VA effectively reduced blood glucose, improved insulin levels, and enhanced liver function in diabetic rats. Additionally, VA promoted insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells and upregulated insulin-related markers, with minimal hepatotoxicity compared to Glibenclamide. VA treatment significantly improved enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant levels, lowered lipid peroxidation, and improved lipid profiles, which were confirmed by histopathological liver observations.
Veratric Acid at low doses effectively modulates blood glucose and diabetes-related biochemical parameters, highlighting its promise as a safer, natural therapeutic alternative for diabetes treatment.

Diagnostic and Management Approach of Pancreatic Pseudocyst in Children
Authors: Nugraha Marcel Aditya , Gayatri Pramita 
Published: November 2024

Background: Pancreatic pseudocyst is a fluid-filled sac within the pancreas encapsulated by fibrous tissue. Blunt-abdominal trauma is the leading risk factor in children. Due to varied and non-specific clinical manifestations, diagnosis can be challenging. Thus, this study aimed to explain the diagnostic and management approach of pediatric pancreatic pseudocyst.
Case: An 8-year-old boy presented with a 3-month history of progressive abdominal mass accompanied by abdominal pain, bilious vomiting, constipation, and weight loss. Physical examination revealed a skin-colored mass located in the epigastric region. A CT-scan confirmed a cystic lesion with well-defined borders in the pancreas. Laboratory tests indicated elevated levels of plasma amylase and lipase enzymes. The patient underwent endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), followed by cyst drainage. Analysis of the pseudocyst fluid revealed increased amylase and lipase enzymes, and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) levels.
Discussion: A thorough patient history and physical examination are essential in diagnosing pancreatic pseudocyst. While CT-scan provides valuable information, EUS has higher sensitivity and specificity for diagnosis. Amylase and lipase enzymes levels are frequently elevated, and CA-19-9 can be useful, however, should be complemented with other biomarkers. Drainage is indicated for cysts that do not resolve spontaneously. Adequate nutrition is also crucial for successful patient management.
Conclusion: Pancreatic pseudocysts should be considered in children with an abdominal mass following blunt-abdominal trauma. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is a valuable tool for both diagnosing and assisting the management of pancreatic pseudocysts.

Traditional and Religious Beliefs on Mental Illness and Help-Seeking Behaviour in Ife Central LGA, Ogun State
Authors: Shipurut Geoffrey Nanbal 
Published: November 2024

Traditional and religious beliefs are essential in mental health discourse and help-seeking behaviour. The study explored the impact of traditional and religious beliefs on mental illness and help-seeking behaviour, in Ife Central LGA. The Health Belief Model (HBM) was adopted as the theoretical framework for the study. The study used a phenomenology research design. Qualitative data was collected from 12 key informants who were purposely selected for the study. The data was analyzed while outlining the key point presented by the key informant. The study revealed that stigma and discrimination are often associated with mental illness and help-seeking behaviour in Ife Central LGA. Mental illness is widely stigmatized and misunderstood. The study also revealed that perceived causes of mental illness include drug abuse, possession by evil spirits, inherited through the family, and punishment from God. The study concluded that misconceptions about the causes of mental illness might consequently lead to misconceptions about treatment. Religious and traditional beliefs in supernatural causes and remedies of mental illnesses influence people’s knowledge and attitudes towards mental illness and help-seeking behaviour. The study recommends the decentralization of mental health care services from urban areas down to rural health centres where mental health services can be rendered with psychiatric services as well. There is a need for community education of the people on the causes of mental illness. It is due to ignorance that most people wrongly believe that mental illness must have some spiritual undertone.

This activity aims to enhance the storytelling skills of Indonesian language teachers at the elementary school level in Soppeng through a structured approach that focuses on the real needs of educators. The program is implemented in four essential stages: first, a training needs analysis is conducted to identify the challenges and opportunities faced by teachers in implementing storytelling techniques; second, the development of relevant and engaging training materials tailored to the characteristics of students and the learning context in elementary schools; third, the execution of training that includes both theoretical and practical sessions, providing opportunities for teachers to practice and directly apply storytelling techniques; and lastly, an evaluation of the activities to assess the effectiveness of the training and to establish steps for future improvements. The results of the evaluations conducted during and after the training implementation indicate a significant increase in the understanding and storytelling skills of the teachers. Through this enhancement, the teachers are not only able to tell stories more engagingly but also integrate storytelling techniques into the Indonesian language learning process in the classroom. Improved storytelling skills are expected to stimulate students' reading interest and literacy, as well as create a more interactive and enjoyable learning experience. Consequently, this activity not only provides a positive impact on the professional development of teachers but also contributes to the growth of more innovative and effective Indonesian language education at the elementary school level. Further research is still needed to explore the long-term impacts of this training and how storytelling techniques can be further optimized within the educational context.
