BackgroundVietnam’s mental health care system is undergoing significant changes since the government has initiated large-scale programs to reform and develop the mental health care infrastructure. Cultural belief systems on mental illnesses influence help-seeking behavior and compliance. This study investigates the belief systems about people with schizophrenia and depression among people living in the Hanoi area.Method1077 Vietnamese participants answered two open-ended questions after reading an unlabeled vignette describing a character with the symptoms of schizophrenia or depression. The answers were analyzed using thematic analysis.ResultsOf all participants, 88,4% associated the presented cases with a mental illness, with 91,5% in the case of schizophrenia and 85,1% in the case of depression, so both disorders were conceptualized as mental illnesses. 18,6% mentioned depression when presented with the depression vignette, while only 3,6% recognized schizophrenia in the schizophrenia condition.ConclusionsAlmost 9 out of 10 participants considered the presented cases as an example of mental illness, suggesting a high mental health awareness among our participants. The majority did not identify the presented cases as examples of schizophrenia or depression, reflecting little familiarity with Western mental health concepts. It could be interpreted as a sign of relatively low mental health literacy among the study participants.

Published: November 2024

BackgroundPulmonary hypertension (PH) is a serious medical condition characterized by elevated pressure in the lung blood vessels, with chronic heart and lung diseases being the most common causes worldwide. However, there is a dearth of studies on the prevalence of pulmonary hypertension and its associated factors among chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients in Ethiopia and the study area.ObjectiveThis study aimed to assess the prevalence of pulmonary hypertension and its associated factors among patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease at public hospitals in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, 2024.MethodsA facility-based cross-sectional study involving 422 COPD patients charted in Addis Ababa town, Ethiopia from May – June 2024 was conducted. Respondents’ records were chosen using simple random numbers. Structured, and pretested questionnaires, were used to collect data. The data were coded and entered into EpiData 3.1 before being exported to SPSS version 25 for analysis. Logistic regression was employed to identify factors influencing the prevalence of pulmonary hypertension. Statistical significance was set at p &lt; 0.05 with a 95% confidence interval.ResultsThe study found the prevalence of pulmonary hypertension was 52% (95% CI: 49, 54.4%). Aged above 55 years [Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR): 2.45 (1.55–3.9), Being male (AOR): 2.5 (1.5–4.1)]. Furthermore, having a history of alcohol [(AOR): 5.5 (2.4–13)], a history of smoking [(AOR): 4.6 (2.7–7.8), and congestive heart failure (AOR): 2.65 (1.5–4.6)], all increase the likelihood of pulmonary hypertension.ConclusionThe study revealed a higher prevalence of pulmonary hypertension among COPD patients. Significant associations were found with being male, belonging to an older age group, and having a history of alcohol use, smoking, and congestive heart disease. Implementing screening programs, smoking cessation programs, educational initiatives, and counseling patients on lifestyle modifications were recommended.
Occupation-related respiratory diseases among sanitary workers in the workplace: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Published: November 2024

IntroductionEmerging evidence from both developed and developing countries indicates that occupation-related respiratory diseases (ORRD) among sanitary workers constitute a significant public health challenge. These are because of the working environment, where employees are more likely to be at risk in an unsafe workplace, especially sanitary workers. Therefore, the purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to estimate the prevalence of ORRD among sanitary workers.MethodsThe Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) flow diagram was used, and the Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcomes, and Study (PICOS) framework was applied to structure the review questions. Studies published in English from 2000 to 2022 were searched in databases and through other methods. Boolean logic (AND, OR, NOT), Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), and keywords were used as follows: (Occupational “OR” Job “OR” Work) AND (Respiratory tract diseases “OR” Respiratory tract infections “OR” Respiratory tract symptoms “OR” Respiratory tract problems) AND (Solid waste collectors “OR” Sewage workers “OR” Street sweepers “OR” Waste treatment worker) AND Countries. Stata MP/17 software was used for data analysis. A random effects model and restricted maximum likelihood were applied. A generic precomputed effect size for the prevalence of ORRD was employed at a 95% confidence interval (CI:95%).ResultsA total of 23 studies were included, four from industrialized countries (n = 4) and seven from developing countries (n = 7), out of an initial 123 studies. Among the 4,521 sanitary workers, 1990 (44%), 1,651 (37%), and 880 (19%) were SS, SWCs, and STWs, respectively. Globally, the pooled prevalence of ORRD among all SWs was 32.56% (95%CI: 25.78, 39.34%). Among these, high-income and low-income countries had a prevalence of 20% (95%CI: 18.08%, 0.21.96%) and 35.17% (95%CI: 27.48, 42.76%), respectively. In the SS and SWC groups, the prevalence was 36.41% (95%CI: 26.69%) and 31.28% (95%CI, 18.64, 43.92%), respectively.ConclusionThe current systematic review and meta-analysis found that ORRD were common among the SWs. Due to numerous risk factors, these illnesses are more prevalent in low-income countries than in industrialized ones. Therefore, to reduce these risks for these groups—especially for street sweepers in low-income countries—government policy changes and other preventive measures are required.
The clinical applications of drugs and their metabolites analysis in biological fluids and commonly used analytical techniques for bioanalysis: review

Published: November 2024

BackgroundThis study provides an overview of the clinical applications of drugs and their metabolites analysis in biological fluids and identifies commonly used analytical techniques for bioanalysis.MethodsOriginal open-access articles published between 31 October 2005 and 31 October 2020 in Google Scholar, MEDLINE, PubMed, and Embase were reviewed, and pertinent findings of the individual studies were pooled and presented using tables. This review was reported according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA).ResultsFifteen studies met the eligibility criteria and were included in the review. These studies show that qualitative identification and quantitative determination of drugs and their metabolites in biological fluids are important for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies, drug abuse control, and forensic and toxicological analyses. Spectroscopic, electrochemical, and hyphenated and nonhyphenated chromatographic techniques are used to analyse drugs and their metabolites in biological fluids. However, hyphenated techniques are the preferred analytical methods because of their sensitivity, selectivity, accuracy, reproducibility, efficiency, and rapid analysis.Conclusion/RecommendationsBioanalysis is important for pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies, therapeutic drug monitoring, forensic and toxicological analyses, and drug abuse control using different bioanalytical techniques. However, hyphenated techniques are the most commonly used bioanalytical techniques. Bioanalysis of drugs and their metabolites needs to be improved to provide good medical and pharmaceutical care to patients, to confirm forensic and toxicological cases, and to control drug abuse.

Published: November 2024

IntroductionAngular limb deformities (ALDs) are a common skeletal development disorder in newborn foals. This condition affects the growth and development of foals and severely impacts their future athletic performance and economic value, causing significant financial losses to the horse industry. Placentitis, metritis, and severe metabolic diseases during mare pregnancy are significant causes of ALDs in newborn foals. It has been established that intestinal flora disorders can easily lead to inflammatory and metabolic diseases in the host. However, the incidence of ALDs in foals in Zhaosu County, Xinjiang, a key production area of China's horse industry, remains unclear. Additionally, the relationship between functional changes in foals with ALDs and their mares and changes in their intestinal flora is not well-understood.MethodsThis study investigated the status of ALD in newborn foals through clinical observation and imaging examinations. In addition, molecular biological methods were applied to examine the effects of ALDs foals and their mares on physiological and biochemical markers and gut microbiota.ResultsThe results showed that the incidence of ALD in Zhaosu area of China was 4.13%. In addition, by comparing and correlating the physiological and biochemical indicators and intestinal flora of foals and mares with ALD with those of healthy horses, it was found that foals and mares with ALD may promote the occurrence and development of the disease through the “blood marker changes-intestinal flora-ALDs” axis. In addition, by comparing the physiological and biochemical indicators and intestinal flora of foals and mares with ALD with the intestinal flora of healthy horses, it was found that the physiological and biochemical indicators and intestinal flora structure and metabolic pathways of foals and mares with ALD had significant changes.DiscussionThe diversity, species composition, and function of the intestinal flora of ALDs and their mares were significantly altered. These findings provide a scientific basis for understanding the etiology of ALDs in foals and offer new perspectives for diagnosing and treatment ALDs in newborn foals.

Published: November 2024

Background
Personal continuity is an important dimension of continuity of care in general practice and is associated with many benefits including a higher quality of GP care and lower mortality rate. Over time, changes in society and health care have challenged the provision of personal continuity. Older patients in particular experience more negative consequences from receiving discontinuous care.

Aim
To explore the perspectives of GPs, older patients, practice nurses, and assistants on improving personal continuity in general practice, and to identify barriers and facilitators that affect this improvement process.

Design and setting
A qualitative study using focus groups was conducted from May to August 2019.

Method

We organised four focus groups: two with GPs (
n
= 17), one with patients (
n
= 7), and one with practice assistants (
n
= 4) and practice nurses (
n
= 2). Focus groups were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis.

Results
Personal continuity was viewed as being provided by the entire general practice team and not just by the patient’s own GP. It was suggested that investing in team communication and stability (for example, by efficient use of the electronic health records) and retaining the availability and accessibility of the patient’s own GP for patient care, especially for frail older persons, (for example, by delegating tasks) could improve personal continuity. Barriers and facilitators were perceived at the individual (for example, GPs’ involvement in tasks), organisation (for example, staff shortages), and societal level (for example, payment system).

Conclusion
As general practice moves towards a more team-based approach to ensure personal continuity, efforts to improve personal continuity should focus on supporting team-based provision of continuous care.

Published: November 2024

Introdução: A hidrosadenite supurativa é uma doença inflamatória crônica, de origem infecciosa, que acomete as glândulas sudoríparas apócrinas. Os fatores associados ao aparecimento da patologia são variados e a etiologia ainda é incerta. Sabe-se que a obesidade, o tabagismo e história familiar positiva são usualmente encontrados nestes pacientes, além de uso agressores físico ou químicos, como depilação frequente das áreas acometidas. Esse processo inflamatório tipicamente crônico alterna períodos de remissão e agudização, que cursam com grandes quantidades de secreção fétida e purulenta, dor local e aspecto eritematoso e cianóticoda pele. O tratamento conservador nestes casos tem pouca eficácia, sendo necessária intervenção cirúrgica para controle cura da doença. Atualmente, a associação com a radioterapia tem grande importância no cenário prático, reduzindo a morbidade cirúrgica, permitindo um melhor resultado estético e funcional, além de diminuir as recidivas locais. Objetivo: Descrever a utilização da radioterapia como ferramenta adjuvante no tratamento da hidrosadenite supurativa, podendo ser empregada também como terapia neoadjuvante em casos com grandes áreas de ressecção, com comprometimento funcional e estético. Resultados: Os pacientes que foram submetidos a radioterapia tanto adjuvante quanto neoadjuvante obtiveram redução da secreção na área fistulosa, diminuição do eritema, odor menos intenso e redução da dor. Conclusões: A radioterapia pode ser empregada como alternativa a pacientes que apresentam um grande acometimento de áreas nobres, em que, caso fosse empregada a ressecção completa, obteríamos grande comprometimento funcional e estético.
Baulicher Zustand kommunaler Straßenbrücken
Authors: Arndt Wulf-Holger 
Published: November 2024

Die Verkehrsinfrastruktur ist eine wichtige Voraussetzung für sozialen Austausch und Wirtschaftskreisläufe einer Volkswirtschaft. Sie ist somit ein wichtiger Eckpfeiler für das Funktionieren einer Gesellschaft und des Wohlstandes.In Deutschland ist die Verkehrsinfrastruktur stark veraltet. Unterhalt und Ersatzinvestitionen als auch nötiger Ausbau erfolgen seit Jahrzehnten nicht im ausreichenden Maße. Der Einsturz der Carola-Brücke ist symptomatischfür den baulichen Zustand der Straßennetze in deutschen Kommunen. Dabei sind Brücken aufwändige und wichtige Ingenieurbauwerke in der Verkehrsinfrastruktur. Vordergründig dienen sie der Verbindung von Orten. Sie helfen bei der Überwindung von Hindernissen und sie sind zur Organisation verschiedener Verkehre auf Straßen, Schienen und Wasserwegen erforderlich. Schon immer waren Brücken auch der Nukleus für wirtschaftliche und gesellschaftliche Entwicklungen. Städtenamen wie Saarbrücken, Osnabrück oder Innsbruck sind dafür historisches Zeugnis.

Trauma Pancreático para el cirujano de urgencias.
Authors: Ramos Perkis Juan Pablo 
Published: November 2024

El trauma pancreático es una entidad infrecuente dentro de los ingresos hospitalarios. Por lo cual los cirujanos de urgencia estarán poco expuestos a su tratamiento quirúrgico. Además, por su ubicación retroperitoneal, el paciente se presentará en un contexto de lesiones multiviscerales y en un alto porcentaje inestable, siendo candidato a cirugía de control de daños. La mortalidad de esta lesión está dada por el shock hemorrágico en forma temprana y por falla multiorgánica de forma tardía. La alta sospecha clínica en un paciente asintomático, y la revisión reglada dentro de la laparotomía por trauma nos harán pesquisar este tipo de lesiones en forma precoz. Para establecer un tratamiento, será imprescindible conocer la zona pancreática afectada, esto es a la izquierda o derecha de los vasos mesentéricos y si la glándula tiene o no lesión del ducto pancreático principal, existiendo variadas opciones tanto en el pre como en el intraoperatorio para este objetivo. Las complicaciones asociadas a esta lesión y su tratamiento van desde la fístula pancreática, colecciones, abscesos e insuficiencia endocrina. El enfrentamiento de este tipo de lesiones de una forma protocolizada con el objetivo de determinar en forma precoz un tratamiento resectivo, será vital para impactar en la morbimortalidad del paciente.

Published: November 2024

Objetivo: Presentar el primer reporte de caso de ALPPS (Asociación de bipartición hepática con ligadura portal para hepatectomía en 2 tiempos) de rescate con seguimiento a largo plazo en Chile. Materiales y Métodos: Descripción del cuadro clínico, técnica quirúrgica y evolución postoperatoria. Resultados: Hombre de 68 años, con diagnóstico de tumor hepático central sospechoso de colangio-hepatocarcinoma. Se consideró resecable mediante una hepatectomía derecha extendida, sin embargo, la estimación del Remante Hepático Futuro (RHF) por volumetría fue de 9%. Se realizó una embolización portal (EP) derecha, logrando aumentar el RHF a 22,8% en 6 semanas post embolización. Se procedió a la exploración quirúrgica donde se evidenció un remanente congestivo con presión portal de 24 mmHg, por lo cual como alternativa de rescate se realizó un procedimiento de ALPPS. Luego de 4 semanas, el RHF alcanzó 27,3%, realizándose la resección. El paciente evolucionó con hiperbilirrubinemia transitoria (BT:21mg/dl) que disminuyó en forma progresiva hasta normalizarse, sin necesidad de reintervención. La biopsia informó tumor mixto hepatocelular-colangiocarcinoma con márgenes negativos. A 54 meses de la intervención no ha presentado recidiva.Discusión: EP es una técnica segura y efectiva, sin embargo, en casos excepcionales con hipertrofia insuficiente, ALPPS permite completar la resección y evitar la FHP.
Motto J.A. Bengela jako rodzaj przedmowy do Novum Testamentum Graece. Interpretacja krytyczna
Authors: Olek Grzegorz 
Published: November 2024

Przedmowę do stuttgarckiego Novum Testamentum Graece od wydania 3. do 25. poprzedzało motto J.A. Bengela: „te totum applica ad textum; rem totam applica ad te”, które stanowiło rodzaj przedmowy, historycznego osadzenia przedsięwzięcia oraz określonego etosu pracy historyczno-filologicznej nad tekstem NT. W niniejszym artykule podjęto próbę zbadania możliwych przyczyn wstawienia, jak i usunięcia wspomnianego motto z wydań NTG. Tekst rozpoczyna się od analizy motto w kontekście prac samego Bengela, a następnie omawiana jest recepcja postaci nauczyciela z Denkendorf przez Eberharda Nestle, Erwina Nestle i Kurta Alanda.
Metoda egzegetyczna Orygenesa a szkoły katechetyczne w Aleksandrii i Cezarei
Authors: Leszczyński Rafał 
Published: November 2024

W artykule przedstawiony został związek pomiędzy egzegezą Pisma Świętego uprawianą przez Orygenesa a sposobem zorganizowania przez niego szkół w Aleksandrii i Cezarei. Podział uczniów na grupy, który miał miejsce w szkołach prowadzonych przez Orygenesa, odpowiadał wyróżnionym przez niego trzem warstwom znaczeniowym Pisma Świętego: sensowi cielesnemu (dosłownemu), psychicznemu (moralnemu) oraz duchowemu (alegorycznemu i filozoficznemu). Zwieńczeniem edukacji w didaskaleionach Orygenesa było osiągnięcie szczebla, na którym najlepsi uczniowie poznawali duchowy sens Biblii, ucząc się alegorycznej egzegezy Pisma, czyli de facto jej interpretacji w świetle filozofii greckiej (neoplatońskiej). Głównym celem szkół Orygenesa było więc wykształcenie chrześcijańskich filozofów.
Kiedy adwersarz polemiczny nie boi się Boga i nie wstydzi się ludzi: obraz przeciwnika w „Lithosie” (1644)
Authors: Nosilia Viviana 
Published: November 2024

Artykuł jest poświęcony strategiom retorycznym, używanym przez autorów słynnego traktatu polemicznego „Lithos abo Kamień...” (Kijów 1644). Występuje w nim niezwykła mnogość inwektyw skierowanych do adwersarza – Kasjana Sakowicza, autora traktatu „Epanorthōsis abo Perspectiwa” (Kraków 1642). Inwektywy te miały dyskredytować przeciwnika w oczach czytelników, a ich użycie nie należało do rzadkości w epoce wczesnonowożytnej nie tylko w Polsce, ale w innych krajów Europy. Pomimo praktyk rei publicae litterarum, jak już pokazał A. Naumow, inspirację do szerokiego stosowania inwektyw polemiści czerpali również z Biblii i z tradycji patrystycznej. W niniejszym artykule omówiono i uporządkowano różne typy argumentów ad personam, po które sięgnęli autorzy „Lithosu”. W ten sposób odsłonięto dość szeroki wachlarz środków, za pomocą których celowo uderzali oni w godność i dostojeństwo rywala. Wskazano także celowość korzystania z obelżywych słów w kreowaniu negatywnego obrazu oponenta.
