Abstract
Abstract
Background: Neonatal mortality is a significant problem in many low-resource countries, yet for every death there are many more new-born who suffer a life-threatening complication but survive. Neonatal near miss has been proposed as a tool for assessment of quality of care in neonates who suffered any life-threatening condition. However, there was limited evidence on magnitude of neonatal near miss and determinant factors in Ethiopia. The aim of this study was to assess proportion and associated factors of neonatal near miss among deliveries at Injibara General Hospital, Awi Zone, Northwest Ethiopia, 2019.
Methods: Institutional based cross sectional study was conducted from February 1, 2019 to April 30, 2019 among 404 live births. Structured and pretested questioner used for mothers and structured checklist for neonates. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regressions model were fitted to identify factors associated with neonatal near miss. An adjusted odds ratio with 95 % confidence interval (CI) was computed to determine the level of significant.
Result: Proportion of neonatal near miss was found to be 23.3 % with 95% CI: (19.1% -27.7%). Primiparous[Adjusted odds ratio(AOR):2.01, 95%CI:(1.03-3.95)], referral linkage [AOR:3.23, 95%CI:(1.89-5.513)], maternal perception of reduced fetal movement[AOR:5.95, 95%CI:2.47-14.33], premature rupture of membrane [AOR: 3.10, 95%CI: (1.27-5.59)], prolonged labor [AOR: 3.00, 95%CI:(1.28-7.06)], obstructed labor/cephalo-pelvic disproportion [AOR: 4.05; 95%CI: (1.55-10.57)] and non-reassuring fetal heart rate pattern [AOR: 3.75, 95%CI: (1.69-8.33)] were significantly associated with neonatal near miss.
Conclusion: Proportion of neonatal near miss in the study area was found to be higher than studies in WHO neonatal near miss systemic review. Efforts needed to continue compressive maternal and neonatal care to avoid preventable causes of neonatal morbidity and mortality .

Abstract
Background: Fatal arrhythmia is a common cause of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in patients with cardiomyopathies. Nowadays, associations of many genetic variants with cardiomyopathy have gradually been highlighted, however, whether the arrhythmia-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are associated with SCDs caused by cardiomyopathies is elusive. To identify the genetic susceptible factors in cardiomyopathy, a retrospective study was conducted from the autopsy cases.
Methods: The present study was composed of 223 forensic autopsy cases including 51 SCDs caused by cardiomyopathies and 172 controls. The cardiomyopathy cases were made up of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC, n = 27) and Non-ARVC [n = 24, including hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, restrictive cardiomyopathy, and unclassified cardiomyopathy]. Four arrhythmia-related candidate SNPs: rs4687718, rs7366407, rs4292933, and rs2824292) were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. Association between genotypes and the risk of SCD was assessed by stratification of the cardiomyopathy (ARVC cases vs. Non-ARVC cases).
Results: The A-allele and dominant model (AA + AG vs. GG) of rs4687718 on transketolase gene (TKT) were significantly associated with cardiomyopathies (ORA allele = 2.481, 95% CIA allele: 1.262 - 4.876, PA allele = 0.007; ORAA+AG genotype = 2.580, 95% CIAA+AG genotype: 1.206 - 5.519, PAA+AG genotype value = 0.012). After stratification by cardiomyopathy subtypes, the allelic and genotypic frequencies of rs4687718 in Non-ARVC group were significantly different compared to controls, and between ARVC group and controls the difference was only duplicated in genotypic frequency. In the light of analyses of the different genetic models, however, there were no significant differences between Non-ARVC group and controls, but the AA + AG vs. GG model was associated with ARVC group. No significant differences were detected for other three SNPs.
Conclusion: Our results revealed an association between TKT rs4687718 and SCDs caused by cardiomyopathy in Chinese autopsy cases. These findings highlighted the important role of molecular testing and may play in propensity toward in clinical prediction and forensic identification of cardiomyopathy SCDs. It also provided the basis for the classification of different types of cardiomyopathy at the genetic level.

Abstract
Background

Diabetes mellitus remains the leading cause of end stage renal disease in most countries in the world. In Ethiopia, renal complications of diabetes may remain unrecognized due to limited diagnostic resources. As a result, the studies that shows the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and its risk factors among adult diabetics in Ethiopia are flimsy. Hence, this study was aimed at assessing the prevalence of chronic kidney disease and associated factors among diabetic patients who attended federal police hospital diabetic clinic in Addis Ababa.

Methods

Hospital based cross sectional study was conducted among 362 Diabetes Mellitus patients using systematic sampling method. Chronic kidney disease stage was categorized according to the classification system established by the National Kidney Foundation Kidney Disease out comes Quality Initiative and defined by Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) <60ml/min/1.73m2. Analysis was performed using SPSS. The prevalence estimates for the reduced GFR and overall chronic kidney disease were obtained. Binary logistic regression was used to see associated factors with chronic kidney disease.

Results

The prevalence of chronic kidney disease diagnosed by Cockroft-Gault equation and Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation was 14.6% and 7.7% respectively. Age 50-59 years (AOR= 4.0; 95% CI:1.2, 13) by Cockroft-Gault equation (CG), age 60-69 years (AOR=5.8 95%CI:1.5,21.0) by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) and (AOR;22.9 95%CI:7.1,74.2) by CG, age 70 years and above (AOR=4.7; 95 CI: 1.1, 19.7) by MDRD and (AOR= 22.9; 95%CI:7.1,74.2) by CG, BMI (AOR=2.2; 95% CI:1.6, 4.2) by CG, and previous kidney disease (AOR=6.2 95%CI:2.0,8.4) by MDRD and (AOR;4.6 95%CI:1.9,10.8) C-G equation were found to have a significant association with chronic kidney disease after an adjustment done using multivariate analysis.

Conclusion

The prevalence of chronic kidney disease among Diabetic patients in this study was high. Age, BMI and previous recurrent kidney disease were associated with Chronic Kidney Disease. Preventive measures like giving health education and screening of patients with risk factors should get more attention.

Abstract
Purpose: To compare vessel density in macular and peripapillary area between control subjects and patients with non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and to evaluate the association between RNFL thickness and different stage of diabetic retinopathy.
Methods: A total of 170 eyes (normal control, 43; mild NPDR, 43; moderate NPDR, 42; severe NPDR, 42) underwent OCTA imaging. Optical coherence tomography angiographic parameters were vessel densities of superficial capillary plexus (SCP), deep capillary plexus (DCP) in macular area and peripapillary area.
Results: Vessel density of SCP and DCP in macular area, peripapillary area as well as RNFL thickness were 53.13%±3.03%, 52.07%±2.28%, 53.78%±3.66% and 128.86μm±11.32μm, respectively, in control subjects; 50.24%±3.81%, 47.40%±45.02%, 46.50%±6.03% and 124μm±13.97μm, respectively, in mild NPDR; 46.80%±5.23%; 44.39%±3.99%; 44.64%±4.23%; 121.02μm±20.86μm, respectively, in moderate NPDR; 42.82%±5.46%, 42.34%±5.14%, 43.16%±4.47%, 118.60μm±21.91μm in severe NPDR. The reduction of vessel density of SCP and DCP in macular area, peripapillary area as well as RNFL thickness were correlated with increasing severity of DR. Vessel density of SCP and DCP in macular area, peripapillary area and foveal density 300 (FD 300) in normal control were significantly higher than that of mild, moderate and severe NPDR groups. (all P<0.001). Vessel density of DCP shows better ability to identify the severity of DR (0.913; 95% CI=0.867-0.958; cut off value:0.75) than FD 300, vessel density of SCP in macular area and peripapillary area.
Conclusion: Macular and peripapillary vessel density as well as RNFL thickness decreased as DR progresses. Vessel density in DCP could be an objective and sensitive indicator for monitoring progression of DR. OCTA might be clinically useful to evaluate microvascular and microstructural alterations in macula and optive nerve head (ONH), thus providing a new method to study the course of DR.

ABSTRACT

Objectives
To examine the relationship between mandibular volume and craniofacial morphology in patients with cleft lip and palate using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and to compare these findings with control (noncleft) patients undergoing CBCT for other purposes during the deciduous dentition period.

Materials and Methods
Eighty-four patients were categorized into the unilateral cleft lip and alveolus (UCLA) group (n = 25; mean age, 4.60 ± 0.40 years), unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) group (n = 23; mean age, 4.52 ± 0.39 years), bilateral cleft lip and palate (BCLP) group (n = 22; mean age, 4.54 ± 0.37 years), and control group without cleft (n = 14; mean age, 5.19 ± 0.52 years). Mandibular volume and craniofacial cephalometric measurements were obtained using CBCT. All measurements were assessed by analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) using Bonferroni post hoc pairwise comparison tests.

Results
ANCOVA revealed no statistically significant differences in mandibular volume among the groups. SNA° and ANB° were significantly larger in the UCLA and BCLP groups than in the control group. SN-MP° was smallest in the UCLA group. Co-A in the UCLP group was shorter than in the UCLA and BCLP groups. Go-Gn was shortest in the UCLP and BCLP groups compared with the control group.

Conclusions
Three-dimensional evaluation of craniofacial morphology using CBCT can provide valuable information on malocclusion and other dentoskeletal problems among patients with CLP.

Published: August 2019

There were two types of speech style which could be divided into formal and informal type. The informal one was well-known by the name of slang. Slang was non-standard language used in the everyday life created by a certain community and usually used by the teenagers in modern era. Slang was not only found in the daily conversation, but also could be found in literary works like song. Song was a literary work which could reflect the reality and express someone’s feelings. This study analyzes the slangs found in five lyrics of Eminem’s song by using descriptive qualitative method. Besides, this study focused on the word formation of the slangs itself. There are 60 data which has been collected from the lyrics. From the analysis conducted, the types of word formation are found in the slangs used in the lyrics, such as blending, clipping, coinage, acronym and onomatopoeia. Mostly, the American slangs in the Eminem’s song lyrics are created by the process of blending and clipping.
