Antibacterial and Bioactive Composite Bone Cements
Authors: Verné Enrica , Foroni Filippo , Lucchetta Giovanni , Miola Marta 
Published: August 2019

Background::
Peri-prosthetic infections are characterized by high resistance to systemic antibiotic
therapy. In this work, commercial PMMA-based bone cement has been loaded with a bioactive glass doped
with silver ions, with the purpose to prepare composite bone cement containing a single inorganic phase with
both bioactive and antibacterial properties, able to prevent bacterial contamination.

Methods::
The glass distribution in the polymeric matrix, the composites radio-opacity, the bending strength
and modulus, the morphology of the fracture surfaces, the bioactivity in Simulated Body Fluid (SBF) and the
antibacterial effect were evaluated. The glass particles dispersion in the polymeric matrix and their exposition
on the polymer surface have been assessed by morphological and compositional characterizations via Scanning
Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersion Spectroscopy (EDS).

Results::
The introduction of the silver-doped bioactive glass allowed imparting an intrinsic radio-opacity to the
cement. The bending strength and modulus were influenced by the glass preparation, amount and grain-size.
The polymeric matrix did not affect the composite ability to induce hydroxyapatite precipitation on its surface
(bioactivity). Moreover, antibacterial test (inhibition halo evaluation) revealed a significant antibacterial effect
toward S. aureus, Bacillus, E. coli and C. albicans strains.

Conclusion::
The obtained results motivate further investigations and future in vivo tests.

Published: August 2019

Background:
HIV remains an important public health issue throughout the world. In Côte d’Ivoire, a high burden of HIV is observed in men who have sex with men (MSM).

Objective:
We assessed the acceptability of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Bouaké, Côte d’Ivoire.

Methods:
We conducted and analysed four focus groups with 31 HIV-negative MSM and eight in-depth individual interviews with participants recruited from the focus groups.

Results:
Four MSM (13%) were aware of PrEP before participating in the study. All the participants were interested in taking PrEP if available: 19 (61.3%) would prefer the daily regimen and 12 (38.7%) would opt for the on-demand regimen. Many advantages of PrEP were mentioned: protection in case of a condom break, protection in case of high-risk sexual behaviour, self-reliance, decreasing HIV fear and ease of use. Barriers to the use of PrEP included: it does not protect against other Sexually Transmitted Tnfections (STIs), taking a pill regularly is necessary, the size of the pill, possibility of side effects, the cost and accessibility. Six participants (19.3%) admitted that they would use condoms less if they take PrEP.

Conclusion:
Findings indicate that PrEP is acceptable within the MSM community. Implementation should be done rapidly, and PrEP should be part of a global prevention program which includes counselling, STI screening and promotion of safe sex practices. Health authorities should consider PrEP for all high-risk groups to avoid worsening stigmatization by targeting MSM only.
Electronic Health Self-Management Interventions for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: Systematic Review of Quantitative and Qualitative Evidence
Authors: Shen Hongxia , van der Kleij Rianne M J J , van der Boog Paul J M , Chang Xinwei , Chavannes Niels H 
Published: August 2019

Background
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) poses a major challenge to public health. In CKD patients, adequate disease self-management has been shown to improve both proximal and distal outcomes. Currently, electronic health (eHealth) interventions are increasingly used to optimize patients’ self-management skills.

Objective
This study aimed to systematically review the existing evidence regarding the implementation and effectiveness of eHealth self-management interventions for patients with CKD.

Methods
Following a search in 8 databases (up to November 2017), quantitative and qualitative data on process and effect outcomes were extracted from relevant studies. Quality was appraised using the Crowe Critical Appraisal Tool; narrative synthesis was performed to analyze the data extracted.

Results
Of the 3307 articles retrieved, 24 (comprising 23 studies) were included in this review; of these, almost half were appraised to be of low to moderate quality. There was considerable heterogeneity in the types of interventions used and the outcomes measured. A total of 10 effect and 9 process outcome indicators were identified. The most frequently reported effect outcome indicators were specific laboratory tests and blood pressure (BP), whereas satisfaction was the most frequently reported process outcome indicator. Positive effects were found for proximal outcomes (eg, BP control and medication adherence), and mixed effects were found for more distal outcomes (eg, quality of life). High feasibility, usability, and acceptability of and satisfaction with eHealth self-management interventions were reported. The determinant ability of health care professionals to monitor and, if necessary, anticipate on patient measurements online was mostly cited to influence patients’ adherence to interventions.

Conclusions
eHealth self-management interventions have the potential to improve disease management and health outcomes. To broaden the evidence base and facilitate intervention upscaling, more detailed descriptions and thorough analysis of the intervention components used are required. In addition, our review reveals that outcomes closely related to the scope and duration of the intervention implemented are most likely to be impacted. For instance, if a 4-week Web-based training to optimize disease management skills is implemented, the outcome perceived control would more likely be affected than kidney function. Although this seems obvious, most studies evaluate only distal outcomes and thereby fail to capture intervention effects that might contribute to long-term health improvement. We advise future researchers to carefully consider their choice of outcomes based on their sensitivity for change. In this way, we ensure that relevant effects are captured and legitimate conclusions are drawn.

Published: August 2019

Background
Heart failure (HF) is a chronic disease that affects over 1% of Canadians and at least 26 million people worldwide. With the continued rise in disease prevalence and an aging population, HF-related costs are expected to create a significant economic burden. Many mobile health (mHealth) apps have been developed to help support patients’ self-care in the home setting, but it is unclear if they are suited to the needs or capabilities of older adults.

Objective
This study aimed to identify HF apps and evaluate whether they met the criteria for optimal HF self-care.

Methods
We conducted a systematic search of all apps available exclusively for HF self-care across Google Play and the App Store. We then evaluated the apps according to a list of 25 major functions pivotal to promoting HF self-care for older adults.

Results
A total of 74 apps for HF self-care were identified, but only 21 apps were listed as being both HF and self-care specific. None of the apps had all 25 of the listed features for an adequate HF self-care app, and only 41% (31/74) apps had the key weight management feature present. HF Storylines received the highest functionality score (18/25, 72%).

Conclusions
Our findings suggest that currently available apps are not adequate for use by older adults with HF. This highlights the need for mHealth apps to refine their development process so that user needs and capabilities are identified during the design stage to ensure the usability of the app.

O lugar da experiência e da razão na origem do conhecimento do turismo
Authors: Moesch Marutschka 
Published: August 2019

Este artigo discorre sobre o domínio material e conceitual do turismo-tese, o objeto da ciência, através dos conhecimentos sistematizados por autores da área e por organismos oficiais de caráter mundial. Analisamos a fragilidade dessas teorias de indução empírica e a atitude positivista onde ocorre uma explícita subordinação do imaginário pela observação do fato. Reconstruímos a epistemologia interna, estabelecendo uma crítica ao domínio conceitual-antítese aos métodos e fundamentos utilizados no ensino do Turismo como um campo disciplinar: o empirismo, o funcionalismo e o sistemismo. Alçamo-nos da sociologia compreensiva de Michel Maffesoli e da teoria da complexidade de Edgar Morin, buscando a construção de um conhecimento turístico interdisciplinar abarcando sua complexidade. A nova síntese é permeada pela análise da epistemologia derivada, onde a relação de sujeito/objeto reconstrói-se organicamente e de forma complexa, estabelecendo-se o domínio da psicogênese e sociogênese do conhecimento turístico, recuperando os valores humanos no discurso científico do turismo.

Published: August 2019

Esta resenha da obra Hegel, Marx, Nietzsche o el reino de las sombras (do filósofo francês Henri Lefebvre) aproxima-se, em verdade, de um ensaio, pelo escopo que tomou, para além de uma sintética resenha. Tem-se por objetivo debater e sustentar a complexidade e a continuidade do mundo moderno, que se mantém pelas sombras de duras e paradoxais contradições do passado, via constituição do Estado, o discurso do social e da Sociedade e o ideal civilizacional ou de Civilização. Dimensões modernas que são avaliadas a partir de Hegel, Marx e Nietzsche, autores que dão aporte à ideia de uma geografia do mundo de existências, na qual o novo e a novidade (no viés das técnicas e das ideias) nunca abandonam totalmente o passado, ou seja, não há ruptura completa com a história, sempre renovada pelo espaço enquanto reflexo da interação permanente sociedade-natureza. Aparecem como temários: a concreticidade de práticas radicais revolucionárias entendidas no bojo da História (Marx), a subjetividade inerente ao corpo e às artes, responsáveis por resguardarem a ideia de uma nova Civilização (Nietzsche), e a vitória de um edifício estatal que a tudo e a todos controla (Hegel). Acredita-se na importância deste debate para o pensamento do mundo do presente, no viés dos questionamentos sistematizados favorecedores do repensar criticamente o espaço.

Published: August 2019

Kulit pisang merupakan limbah pertanian yang cukup mudah ditemukan dikota Makassar. Hal ini disebabkan karena kota Makassar cukup terkenal dengan produk olahan pisang seperti pisang epe, pisang ijo, pallu butung, hingga sanggara balanda. Disepanjang jalan Mannuruki terdapat penjual gorengan pisang dan produk olahan pisang lainnya yang menimbukan kulit pisang tidak termanfaatkan sehingga menjadi limbah. Bertambahnya industri rumah tangga yang menghasilkan produk olahan pisang menyebabkan jumlah kulit pisang semakin banyak. Oleh karna itu, diperlukan upaya untuk meminimalisir limbah kulit pisang dengan cara memanfaatkannya menjadi sebuah produk yang bernilai sehingga muncullah inovasi dengan mengolah kulit pisang menjadi “Kerupuk Pa’KuPas” (Pangsit kulit pisang). Sehubungan dengan uraian berikut, dijalan Mannuruki terdapat sebuah panti asuhan yang masyarakatnya memiliki perilaku kurang produktif karena kebanyakan remaja panti seusai pulang sekolah tidak memiliki kegiatan, begitupun dengan para pembina panti yang telah menyelesaikan tugasnya memiliki waktu luang yang banyak, sehingga waktu istirahat masyarakat panti asuhan lebih panjang dan tidak produktif. Oleh karena itu, kami akan melaksanakan pelatihan pengolahan “Kerupuk Pa’KuPas” (Pangsit kulit pisang) pada masyarakat panti asuhan Setia Karya guna memberi bekal keterampilan sehingga nantinya dapat dimanfaatkan untuk membuka peluang kerja baik usaha mandiri maupun membuka lapangan pekerjaan untuk orang lain.
