IntroductionChild labor is an important issue of public health in both developed and developing countries. This is a cross-sectional-descriptive study.Methods418 individuals under the age of 18 were enrolled in the study. Data were collected by using a questionnaire. The data were analyzed using SPSS 22 software package. Significance was p &lt; 0.05.ResultsAll the participants were male with a mean age of 14.90 ± 1.94 years. 34.9% did not continue education. Among them, prevalence of underweight, shortness, overweight and obesity were 3.3, 9.9, 17.7 and 6.2%, respectively. 16.5% of the families had immigrated. The mean number of family members was 5.87 ± 1.62. Out of the participants, 29.4% were smokers, 8.4% had alcohol abuse and 3.8% had substance abuse. 55.0% of the children stated to have started working for acquiring a profession, whereas 35.4% were for financial reasons. The children were working mostly at automobile repair shops (38.8%). The average working time was 11.46 ± 0.83 h per day. 5.7% of the children were attending apprenticeship school. 52.6% said they had at least one occupational injury event.DiscussionIt was found that age, reason for working, the degree of proximity to the employer, and having a master trainer’s certificate of the employer affected the children’s attendance at Apprenticeship Training Center. Occurrence of having occupational injury events was found to be associated with sleep duration, experiencing abuse, smoking and alcohol addiction. Child labor still remains unsolved despite the measures taken and the long struggle. It will be useful to support them in healthy life behaviors such as healthy sleep, healthy nutrition, no smoking and alcohol habits. More radical solutions should be sought to eliminate child labor.

BackgroundDisease related anemia in myelofibrosis (MF) is common and prognostically detrimental. Anemia in MF poses a therapeutic challenge as it contributes to poor quality of life and often interferes with JAK inhibitor therapy. Still, the causes for anemia in MF are varied raising the question as to whether all patients with MF-related anemia should be viewed through the same prognostic lens.MethodsIn this retrospective study, we analyzed clinical and genomic data of patients with MF-related anemia using an institutional MF database. Anemia was defined as the requirement of red blood cell transfusions or a hemoglobin level of &lt;10 g/dL at presentation. Multivariable analysis performed using Cox regression formed the basis of a proposed prognostic scoring system for patients with anemic MF.ResultsAmong 739 patients with MF, 365 (49.5%) were anemic at presentation. Anemic patients were older, had lower platelet count, lower serum albumin, and higher ferritin level than non-anemic patients. The presence of a JAK2 mutation was less common, whereas mutations in U2AF1 and EZH2 were enriched in the anemic cohort. Blast phase transformation was more common in anemic patients. After a median follow up of 34.5 months, median overall survival (OS) was significantly shorter in anemic vs. non-anemic MF (30.2 vs. 73.9 months; p&lt;0.01). Leukocytosis, thrombocytopenia, low serum albumin, and the presence of a mutation involving SRSF2 or TP53 were independent predictors of inferior OS in anemic MF on multivariable analysis. A proposed prognostic model including these factors stratified anemic MF cohort into low, intermediate, and high-risk categories, with median OS of 69, 37.7, and 11.6 months, respectively (p &lt;0.01).ConclusionsOur study highlights the heterogeneity of patients with MF and anemia and identifies key prognostic correlates in this subgroup. Our proposed model may help guide therapeutic decision-making in this high-risk cohort.

Published: November 2024

IntroductionThe demand for sustainable food packaging materials has led to the exploration of bioactive composite films. This study aimed to prepare and evaluate a composite film made from sweet potato peel polyphenols extract and sweet potato starch (SPS) for its potential use in food packaging.MethodsThe composite film was prepared by uniformly dispersing 0.4% sweet potato peel polyphenols in the SPS matrix. Physicochemical properties and functional characteristics were assessed, including mechanical properties, UV barrier, water and gas barrier properties, antioxidant activity, and antimicrobial abilities against Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus. The film's efficacy in food packaging was tested using fresh cherry tomatoes, stored at 4°C, to determine its impact on shelf life.ResultsThe starch-based sweet potato peel polyphenols film demonstrated enhanced mechanical properties and excellent UV barrier properties. It showed improved water and gas barrier properties and strong antioxidant activity, with clearance rates above 90% for DPPH and ABTS radicals. The film also exhibited effective antimicrobial abilities against the tested bacteria. Food packaging experiments indicated that the film could extend the shelf life of fresh cherry tomatoes to 7 days when stored at 4°C.DiscussionThe results suggest that the developed composite film has significant potential as an eco-friendly food packaging material. Its multifunctional properties, including UV protection, barrier enhancement, antioxidant activity, and antimicrobial capabilities, make it a promising candidate for extending the shelf life of perishable foods. The film's performance in slowing spoilage and extending the shelf life of cherry tomatoes highlights its practical application prospects in the food industry.

Published: November 2024

BackgroundPostoperative perineal hernia (PH) is an uncommon complication after abdominoperineal resection (APR). Different techniques have been described in literature and there is no consensus regarding the optimal repair approach. In the present study, we reported a case of a laparoscopic combined repair of a perineal hernia and abdominal parastomal hernia (PSH) with mesh. Studies have shown that the prosthetic PSH and PH repair can be performed at the same time by laparoscopy with the same trocars positioning, adding the advantages of minimally invasive surgery and avoiding large laparotomy.MethodsA literature search in Pubmed was performed. All articles in English describe laparoscopic repair of combined perineal and parastomal hernias. A case presentation of an 83-year-old woman with combined parastomal and perineal hernias after abdominoperineal resection (APR) shown in a video vignette is provided.ResultsThree single patient case reports published between 2016 and 2023 were found in literature. Two patients with rectal cancer underwent APR procedure, while the third patient underwent an anterior pelvic exenteration (APE) for carcinoma of the urinary bladder (CUB). The laparoscopic procedures did not require conversion and all procedures successfully closed the defect using a mesh. In our case, the operative time was 3 h with the major time spent for PH repair. The intraoperative blood loss was non-significant and the postoperative course was regular. The patient has been discharged on the fourth postoperative day. At 1 year follow-up, the patient noticed a great improvement in her daily-life due to the absence of the previous discomforts and there was no evidence of early recurrence or other postoperative complications.ConclusionCombined laparoscopic transabdominal PH and PSH repair with the use of synthetic mesh was shown to be a safe and effective repair for this rare disorder. To accurately compare techniques, we require prospective studies with longer follow up durations.

Background:
Patients with kidney disease are at increased risk for gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB). This study aimed to investigate the incidence, causes, interventions, and inpatient outcomes of GIB in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (ACKD), end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), and kidney transplant recipients (KT), compared to those without CKD (NCKD).

Methods:
This retrospective study utilized the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) database to identify adult patients admitted non-electively with GIB from 2016 to 2019. Patients were stratified into five groups: ACKD (CKD stages 4 or 5), ESKD, KT, NCKD, and others (including CKD stages 1-3 and unspecified CKD). We compared outcomes across these groups and conducted subgroup analyses within the ACKD and ESKD groups to explore the association between mortality and the timing of endoscopic evaluation. Multivariate logistic regression (for binary outcomes) and linear regression (for continuous outcomes) models were used to analyze the dependent variables.

Results:
A total of 2,163,929 patients were included. The incidence of GIB hospitalizations was higher in the ACKD (3.2%) and ESKD (3.4%) groups, and lower in the KT group (2.1%) compared to the NCKD group (2.2%). All-cause in-hospital mortality was increased in ACKD, ESKD, and KT (3.0%, 3.1%, 2.0% respectively) compared to NCKD (1.7%). ESKD patients had higher rates of mechanical ventilation, vasopressor support, and blood transfusion, along with prolonged and costly hospitalizations (p < 0.001). ACKD and ESKD groups had lower rates of early endoscopy (<24 hours) and higher rates of delayed endoscopy (>48 hours) with delayed endoscopy linked to increased mortality. ACKD and ESKD were independent risk factors for angiodysplasia bleeding, while KT was a risk factor for diverticular and esophageal bleeding.

Conclusions:
ACKD and ESKD are independent risk factors for GIB hospitalizations and in-hospital mortality, with delayed endoscopy further worsening outcomes. Tailored treatment plans are essential to improve outcomes in this complex population.

A l’échelle mondiale le cancer du col utérin est le quatrième cancer le plus fréquent chez les femmes dans le monde, après les cancers du sein, du colorectal et du poumon
Intimement liée au papilloma virus humain (HPV) puisque l’infection par HPV est considérée comme un élément obligatoire mais non suffisant à lui seul au développement du cancer du col utérin , la grande majorité des femmes infectées par un type d’HPV ne développent pas toute ; le cancer car d’autres facteurs entrent en jeu.
C’est ce très fort lien existant entre certains papillomavirus et le cancer du col de l’utérus qui a conduit au développement de vaccins prophylactiques, destinés à éviter ce cancer en empêchant l’infection viral
الاستثمار السياحي في الجزائر وأثره على حركة التنمية الاقتصادية

تعتبر السياحة من أهم الموارد التي تعول عليها الدول للرفع من مستوى عائداتها وهذا نظرا لما تكتسبه من أهمية بالغة القصوى، باعتبارها موردا من الموارد الأساسية التي تدفع بعجلة التنمية وتساهم في رفع الاقتصاد الوطني، فهي وسيلة فعالة لجلب العملة الصعبة وامتصاص البطالة وبالتالي توفير مناصب عمل، مما جعل الكثير من الدول تولي اهتماما خاصا لهذا القطاع.
ولم تعد السياحة مجرد ظاهرة اجتماعية تهم بعـض الأفـراد والجماعـات فقـط، بـل تحولـت إلى مجموعة من الأنشـطة الترفيهيـة ذات أبعـاد كثيرة منها اقتصــادية واجتماعيــة وثقافيــة وغيرها. وأصبحت تمثل صناعة تصديرية قائمة بذاتها، إذ تلعب دورا مهما في عملية التنمية الاقتصادية.
فقطاع السياحة في الجزائر ظل مهملا لسنوات عديدة، ولكـن مـا تزخر بـه الجزائـر مـن مـوارد طبيعيـة ومواقـع تاريخيـة يعطي لها دفعا قويا ويكسبها ميزة تنافسية، ولأن طبيعة النشاط السياحي يؤثر على النمو الاقتصادي من خلال الزيادة الملحوظة في الناتج المحلي الاجمالي للدولة، إذ يعد أكثـر مرونة في الدول التي تولي الاعتماد على السياحة كقطاع أساسي فعال، بينما يظهر العكس في الدول المتخلفة أو التي لا تولي للسياحة أهمية اساسية في اقتصادها، وقد تعتمد على قطاع أخر غيرها.
وإذا كانت السياحة قد ساهمت بالقسط الكبير في زيادة النمو الاقتصادي للدول المتقدمة، فهل ستخدم في نفس الوقت سياسة التنمية الاقتصادية في الجزائر؟ وما دور الاستثمار السياحي في تحقيق التنمية؟، وعلى هذا الأساس جاءت دراستنا كمحاولة بتعريف وتقييم الاستثمار السياحي في الجزائر، وتوضيح مدى أهميته وانعكاساته على الأوضاع الاقتصادية والاجتماعية وغيرها.
دور ومكانة الدين في ظل التغير الاجتماعي

نسعى من خلال هذه الورقة البحثية إلى تسليط الضوء على دور ومكانة الدين في حياة الفرد والمجتمع وهذا في ظل موجة التغير الاجتماعي التي شهدها العالم برمته وقد تجسدت مظاهرها في الحداثة، العولمة، الغزو الثقافي كما أنها تجاوزت كل الحدود والخصوصيات بما فيها المعتقدات الدينية، فهذه الأخيرة من أبرز الخصوصيات التي تميز بين الشعوب والمجتمعات ورغم ذلك لم تسلم من تأثير تلك الظاهرة، ومرد ذلك هو أن الإنسان بطبيعته ميال إلى التغير مثلما هو ميال إلى التدين. إضافة إلى وجود علاقة تفاعلية بين الدين والتغير الاجتماعي.
ومما لا شك فيه هو أن الدين هو نزعة طبيعية فطرية في الإنسان، وقد وجد منذ الأزل، فالإنسان منذ البداية شعر بالنقص وبالحاجة إلى إله يعبده ويلجأ إليه وقت الأزمات، وقد وجد ضالته في القوى العليا وما وراء الطبيعة ومع الوقت عرف ديانات مختلفة حتى وصل إلى دين التوحيد مع الإسلام الذي كان آخر دين عرفه الإنسان في حياته. وإذا كان الدين يمثل أحد الجوانب المهمة في حياة الفرد والمجتمع ويتفاعل مع جميع الأنظمة والأنساق الاجتماعية، فإنه بطبيعة الحال سوف يتأثر بما يطرأ على تلك الأنساق من تغيرات، فالدين ليس في منأى عن التحولات الاجتماعية ومستجدات العصر خاصة وأن هذا التحول أو التغير الاجتماعي هو أمر طبيعي وضروري في الحياة الاجتماعية.
هوية الشباب بين الأصالة والحداثة

Published: November 2024

إن الحديث عن هاجس الهوية كنظام من القيم والتصورات التي تميز مجتمعا ما لا يكاد يخلو من جدل ثنائية الأصالة والحداثة في الخطاب الأكاديمي. هذه الأخيرة فجرت أزمة هوية تتجلى أبعادها لدى المجتمع عامة وضمن الشباب خاصة. فقد أصبح الحديث عن الهوية على رأس أجندة القضايا الاجتماعية في ظل تحديات تزيل حدود الخصوصية المجتمعية وتنفي الكيان القومي وتهدم أسس التصنيف الطائفي والعرقي. ومما لا شك فيه أن التكنولوجيا تلعب دورا محوريا في خرق الهوية وتروج منهجيا لتبعية ثقافية تتنافى وقيمنا المتجذرة وعليه تمحي وجودنا الثقافي الأصيل. ولأن الشباب هم أكثر فئات المجتمع استجابة للتغيير، فإن هويتهم المحورية وبعدهم الثقافي الانتمائي على المحك. وعليه، تهدف هذه الورقة البحثية إلى تقديم مقاربة سوسيولوجية لإشكالية الهوية لدى فئة الشباب التي تتأرجح بين جدليات التمسك والتفكك، الوعي والتشتت، والأصالة والمواكبة في ظل الشرخ الاجتماعي المصاحب للتغييرات الديناميكية والتكنولوجية.
تفعيل الإعلام السياحي الرقمي في تعزيز ثقافة السياحة الخارجية بالجزائر: قراءة تحليلية نقدية

تصنف السياحة اليوم إلى جانب كبرى الصناعات الحديثة، لدورها البارز في تنمية قطاعات المجتمع المختلفة الاقتصادية منها، والاجتماعية، والثقافية، لذا اتجهت الوكالات السياحة للاستعانة بعنصر الاعلام، الذي تقع على عاتقه مسؤولية الترويج للمنتج السياحي، ومخاطبة الجماهير عبر مختلف وسائله وأشكاله الرقمية الجديدة، التي تعد الأنترنت أكثرها استخداما في مجال تسويق و تنشيط القطاع السياحي، باعتبارها الأكثر رواجا واستهلاكا لدى أفراد المجتمعات، مما جعلها مسؤولة عن نقل و تقديم عناصر الجذب المميزة لكل مقصد سياحي دون الآخر، في إطار إبراز الثقافة المحلية لكل بلد والمحافظة عليها.
فرغم توفر الجزائر على مقومات سياحية طبيعية، تاريخية، حضارية، إلا أن وكالاتها السياحية لازالت تعاني من نقص في جودة الخدمات الإعلامية، التي لم ترتقي بعد إلى مستوى تطلعات السائح الأجنبي على وجه الخصوص، الأمر الذي كشف عن ضعف تكوين الموارد البشرية المتخصصة في مجال الاعلام السياحي الرقمي، وضعف الاستراتيجيات الإعلامية والاتصالية المتبعة من طرف هذه المؤسسات، الأمر الذي ولد نفور لدى السياح من جهة، وركود السياحة الخارجية من جهة أخرى، أين تهدف هذه الورقة البحثية باعتماد المنهج التحليلي النقدي، إلى معالجة مسألة تفعيل الاعلام السياحي الرقمي، وأهميته كحل استراتيجي لنشر ثقافة السياحة الخارجية وتنميتها بالجزائر.

Technostress Among Information Specialists/Librarians at a Private Higher Education Institution in South Africa: Are They Spared?
Authors: Pasipamire Edmont 
Published: November 2024

In the digital age, information specialists at Private Higher Education Institutions (PHEIs) played a crucial role in managing vast amounts of digital information and providing essential services to support academic activities. However, the increasing reliance on technology brought about a phenomenon known as technostress—stress or psychosocial strain experienced due to the use of information and communication technologies (ICT). The aim of this study was to explore information specialists/librarians' experiences of technostress in the context of technology integration into library services at a private higher education institution in South Africa. It sought to identify the specific challenges librarians faced due to the adoption and use of technology and to understand how these challenges affected their daily tasks, job performance, and overall job satisfaction. The study was underpinned by the Transactional Model of Stress and Coping (Lazarus & Folkman, 1984), which provided a framework for understanding how individuals cognitively appraised and coped with stressful situations. Utilizing a qualitative approach guided by the interpretivist paradigm, the research gathered comprehensive data through qualitative semi structured interviews. A purposive sample of information specialists from a leading Private Higher Education Institution (PHEI) was selected, and thematic analysis was employed to analyse the interview transcripts. Participants were invited for semi-structured interviews until saturation was achieved. The thematic results of the qualitative study illustrated the effects of technostress on information specialists at the PHEI. Participants experienced system failures, technical glitches, and challenges with new tools, which significantly increased their stress levels. This stress manifested itself in physical symptoms such as eyestrain and headaches, as well as emotional symptoms such as anxiety and frustration, often exacerbated by increased screen time and poor ergonomics. The impact on work performance varied, with some experiencing minimal or positive impacts on productivity, while others experienced significant disruption to their work and well-being. The findings improved the understanding of technostress in higher education and provided recommendations for creating a supportive work environment and promoting the well-being of information specialists/librarians. Practical suggestions were made to address the identified challenges and improve the wellbeing and effectiveness of information specialists within the PHEI. This study informed strategies to effectively combat technostress among information specialists/librarians at a PHEI.
