AbstractAdults aged 85 years and older, the “oldest old,” are the fastest‐growing age group in the United States, yet relatively little is known about their cancer burden. Combining data from the National Cancer Institute, the North American Association of Central Cancer Registries, and the National Center for Health Statistics, the authors provide comprehensive information on cancer occurrence in adults aged 85 years and older. In 2019, there will be approximately 140,690 cancer cases diagnosed and 103,250 cancer deaths among the oldest old in the United States. The most common cancers in these individuals (lung, breast, prostate, and colorectum) are the same as those in the general population. Overall cancer incidence rates peaked in the oldest men and women around 1990 and have subsequently declined, with the pace accelerating during the past decade. These trends largely reflect declines in cancers of the prostate and colorectum and, more recently, cancers of the lung among men and the breast among women. We note differences in trends for some cancers in the oldest age group (eg, lung cancer and melanoma) compared with adults aged 65 to 84 years, which reflect elevated risks in the oldest generations. In addition, cancers in the oldest old are often more advanced at diagnosis. For example, breast and colorectal cancers diagnosed in patients aged 85 years and older are about 10% less likely to be diagnosed at a local stage compared with those diagnosed in patients aged 65 to 84 years. Patients with cancer who are aged 85 years and older have the lowest relative survival of any age group, with the largest disparities noted when cancer is diagnosed at advanced stages. They are also less likely to receive surgical treatment for their cancers; only 65% of breast cancer patients aged 85 years and older received surgery compared with 89% of those aged 65 to 84 years. This difference may reflect the complexities of treating older patients, including the presence of multiple comorbidities, functional declines, and cognitive impairment, as well as competing mortality risks and undertreatment. More research on cancer in the oldest Americans is needed to improve outcomes and anticipate the complex health care needs of this rapidly growing population.

Authors: Munshi Saurab Kishore , Roy Juel , Noor Rashed 
Published: August 2019

Cow dung is being used in agriculture as well for the household and religious purposes from the ancient time. Cow dung is known to possess antimicrobial activity and contains a wide variety of microorganisms with variable properties. Therefore, the present study was carried out to assess the microbial diversity including pathogenic ones of the cow dung samples as well as to determine the antimicrobial traits of the samples. In this regard, a total of 8 fresh cow dung samples were tested. All the samples contained a huge load of bacteria and fungi in an average of 108 and 107 cfu/g, respectively. An extended number of pathogenic bacteria were recovered. Among the pathogenic bacteria, Staphylococcus spp. and Bacillus spp. were predominantly found in every sample. The presence of Pseudomonas spp. Escherichia coli, Klebsiella spp. and fecal coliform were exhibited in most of the samples. Salmonella spp. and Vibrio spp. were found in 3 and 5 samples, respectively. The average load of the pathogens was 104 cfu/g. All the samples showed substantial degree of antimicrobial activity against all the pathogens tested. Samples 1, 2, 3 and 4 were effective in inhibiting the growth of all the tested pathogens. The findings of the present study revealed the need for safe application of cow dung in the agricultural field and of further investigation for the antimicrobial potential of the diversified microflora of cow dung offering agricultural, environmental and medical applications.

Can We Predict Complications In Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy?
Authors: ARSLAN Erkan , TÜRK Hakan 
Published: August 2019

Introduction:
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) has a high
success rate, but on the other hand, serious perioperative and postoperative
complications can be seen occasionally. In
our study, we intended to identify the factors that might help us to predict
the success of PCNL and the complications that may develop.

Materials
and Methods: PNL operations performed
in 481 renal units in our clinic were divided into two groups as the cases with
and without complications. Complications
such as clinical conditions requiring blood transfusion, fever, ureteral
stones, colonic injury, pleural injury and arteriovenous fistulas were
compared.

Results: Mean
age was significantly higher in the group with postoperative complications in
comparison to the group without complication. However, the incidence of
complications was significantly lower in cases with pelvic stones in comparison
to those with calyx and calyx+pelvic stones,
while the cases with calyx+pelvic stones had a significantly higher rate
of complications with respect to the other groups.

Conclusion:
It is demonstrated in our study that patient’s age and
stone localization can predict complications in PNL. More attention needs to be
paid to avoid complications in elderly patients and in complex stones.

Published: August 2019

Objective:
We
investigated the effect and significance of the host factor in infections
following transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy.Material
and Methods: A
total of 250 patients who underwent transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate
biopsy between March 2016 and March 2018 were included in the study. The effects of positive tissue culture
on post-biopsy fever and also on total infection rate were investigated. So, the effect of the host factor was
tried to be clarified.Results:A
total of 78 patients (31.2%) had growth in tissue culture. Infectious complications developed in 40
patients (16%) Growth in tissue culture
showed a statistically significant effect on the development of fever
and total infectious complications after biopsy. However, only 13 (16,6%) of
the patients who had tissue culture had a fever.

Conclusion:
A significant relationship was found between growth in tissue culture and
development of fever and total infectious complications following biopsy.
However, the fact that the majority of the
patients with positive tissue culture had no fever whereas some of the
patients with negative tissue culture had fever may suggest that there might be
some additional effects of host-related factors.
Understanding sciatica: illness and treatment beliefs in a lumbar radicular pain population. A qualitative interview study
Authors: Goldsmith Robert , Williams Nefyn Howard , Wood Fiona 
Published: August 2019

BackgroundSeveral pathological processes contribute to lumbar radicular pain (LRP), commonly known as sciatica. It is not known how patients rationalise the experience of sciatica or understand the diagnosis. Providing clinicians with a better understanding of how patients conceptualise sciatica will help them to tailor information for patients on the management and treatment of the condition.AimTo understand patients’ beliefs regarding their illness following a diagnosis of LRP, how these beliefs were developed, and the impact of illness beliefs on treatment beliefs.Design & settingQualitative interview study from a single NHS musculoskeletal interface service (in Wales, UK).MethodThirteen patients recently diagnosed with LRP were consecutively recruited. Individual semi-structured interviews were recorded and transcribed. Data were analysed using a thematic approach.ResultsFour main themes were generated: (1) the illness experience (2) the concept of sciatica, (3) treatment beliefs, and (4) the desire for credible information.ConclusionThe diagnosis of LRP is often communicated and understood within a compressive conceptual illness identity. Explaining symptoms with a compressive pathological model is easily understood by patients but may not accurately reflect the spectrum of pathological processes known to contribute to radicular pain. This model appears to inform patient beliefs about treatments. Clinicians should take care to fully explain the pathology prior to shared decision-making with patients.

KOMUNITAS BASIS GEREJANI MERESPON BUDAYA HIDUP INDIVIDUALISME, KONSUMERISME DAN HEDONISME DI TENGAH ARUS GLOBALISASI
Authors: Wilhemus Ola Rongan 
Published: August 2019

Globalisasi ialah proses terjadinya integrasi hubungan dan kerjasama antar bangsa dan masyarakat dunia dalam berbagai bidang kehidupan yang berdampak pada peningkatan kesejahteran dan kemakmuran hidup manusia. Akan tetapi, globalisasi turut melahirkan budaya hidup individualisme, hedonisme dan konsumerisme. Budaya hidup ini patut diwaspadai dan diantisipasi Gereja karena bertentangan dengan nilai­ nilai dasar kehidupan kristiani seperti kasih, pengorbanan, solidaritas dan berbagi. Menghadapi budaya hidup ini, Gereja sebagai persekutuan umat Allah perlu membentuk dan menghidupi Komunitas Basis Gerejani sebagai fokus pemberdayaan iman umat dan menetralisir semangat hidup individualisme, hedonisme dan konsumerisme yang terlalu menekankan kemerdekaan, kenikmatan, kepentingan, sukses dan prestasi individu. Komunitas Basis Gerejani memungkinkan umat beriman kristiani menemukan tempat yang tepat untuk saling membantu dan meneguhkan satu sama lain dalam mejalankan misi Yesus yaitu menjadi terang dan garam bagi dunia, dan tidak hanya sibuk dengan urusan, kepentingan dan kenikmatan pribadi melulu.
