Electron Densities in H ii Regions from Observation of [N ii] 205 μm Fine Structure and Radio Recombination Lines
Authors: Goldsmith Paul. F. , Anderson L. D. , Pineda Jorge L. , Aladro Rebeca , Ricken Oliver 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
We employ observations of the 205 μm [N ii] fine structure (FS) line and radio recombination line (RRL) emission to derive the electron density in 10 well-known H ii regions. The combination of these two spectral lines (the RRL–FS line method) provides a sensitive probe of electron density in regions with n(e) ≥ 30 cm−3 without requiring knowledge of the size of the ionized region. By using H54α data from the Green Bank Telescope and 205 μm data from the SOFIA Airborne Observatory, we have almost identical 18″ beamwidths, removing a significant source of error for observations of H ii regions due to nonuniform density across the sources observed. The electron densities vary widely among the sources observed, from 2600 to 36,000 cm−3, with two low-density outliers at 94 and 520 cm−3. On average, these densities are a factor of 4 greater than the highest-resolution single-antenna data and a factor of almost 13 greater than the 182″ angular resolution single-antenna data having more sources in common. The total 1σ fractional uncertainties in n(e) are in the range 0.15–0.29. In the RRL–FS line method, the observationally determined quantity is proportional to ∫n
2(z)dz / ∫n(z)dz. For a Gaussian density distribution much more extended than its 1/e radius, this is equal to

n

, where n
0 is the peak electron density. The high values of electron density found are plausibly the result of the RRL–FS line technique sampling the peak of a centrally condensed density distribution.
Compression Acceleration of Protons and Heavier Ions at the Heliospheric Current Sheet
Authors: Murtas Giulia , Li Xiaocan , Guo Fan 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
Recent observations by the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) suggest that protons and heavier ions are accelerated to high energies by magnetic reconnection at the heliospheric current sheet (HCS). By solving the energetic particle transport equation in large-scale MHD simulations, we study the compression acceleration of protons and heavier ions in the reconnecting HCS. We find that the acceleration of multispecies ions results in nonthermal power-law distributions with a spectral index consistent with the PSP observations. Our study shows that the high-energy cutoff of protons can reach

–1 MeV depending on the particle diffusion coefficients. We also study how the high-energy cutoff of different ion species scales with the charge-to-mass ratio

Authors: Marrero Jing , Jerson Bradley , Brimacombe Michael , Hopkins Dena , Hinderer Katherine A. , Hyams Jeffrey S. 
Published: October 2024

Background
With the rising incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in pediatric populations, school nurses are increasingly called on to care for and support these students.

Method
The research team surveyed Connecticut school nurses about their experiences, knowledge, and confidence in addressing IBD in the school setting. The team also developed and implemented an online education intervention to improve knowledge and confidence gaps during the 2022–2023 academic year.

Results

Most participants have cared for one to two (46%,
n
= 66) or several (30%,
n
= 44) students with IBD. However, 24% (
n
= 35) have not cared for any students with IBD. School nurses shared their perspectives with three themes identified from the qualitative feedback: (a) limited knowledge and experience with IBD, (b) importance of support at school, and (c) need for interprofessional collaborative practice.

Conclusion

The online education significantly improved school nurses' knowledge (
p
< .001) and confidence scores (
p
< .001). Participants found this intervention beneficial to their work.

Feasibility of Fall-Risk Detection in Older Adults: Real-World Use of Sensor Data With Machine Learning
Authors: Farmer Matthew , Powell Kimberly R. 
Published: October 2024

Purpose
To use machine learning techniques with sensor data to predict fall risk in older adults aging in place.

Method
We tested the feasibility of using anomaly detection on a dataset comprising 315 days of continuous unobtrusive sensor data obtained from a single participant to predict fall risk within a 10-day window. Predictions were validated with performance metrics, including accuracy, F1 score, and receiver operating characteristic–area under curve (ROC-AUC), using actual falls documented in the electronic health record.

Results
The model resulted with accuracy = 0.96 (95% confidence interval [CI] [0.94, 0.99]), F1 = 0.78 (95% CI [0.73, 0.83]), and ROC-AUC = 0.89 (95% CI [0.85, 0.93]).

Conclusion

The application of anomaly detection on sensor data may provide a timely and valid indication of fall risk in older adults within a 10-day window. Further research and validation are warranted to confirm these findings and expand the scope of application in the domain of older adult care and health care support. [

La antropología católica de las pasiones: medicina, religión y política en El hombre físico (1800) de Lorenzo Hervás y Panduro
Authors: Dos Santos Javier 
Published: October 2024

El objetivo del presente artículo es ofrecer un análisis de los esfuerzos que la reacción eclesiástica anti-ilustrada y contrarrevolucionaria, así como ciertos sectores del establishment médico hispano emprendieron a finales del siglo XVIII para fijar y definir una comprensión médico-teológica del ser humano acorde a los postulados católicos tradicionales, y contraria a los nuevos modelos de corte ilustrado. Del mismo modo, pretende explorar el reto que los nuevos descubrimientos científicos dieciochescos en torno al cuerpo y a la irritabilidad nerviosa supusieron a la hora de articular una concepción de la espiritualidad, la corporalidad y las pasiones que no podía simplemente ignorar las aportaciones de la medicina ilustrada. Para ello, se centrará en analizar el tratado médico-teológico El hombre físico, o Anatomía humana físico-filosófica (1800) en el cual el exjesuita Lorenzo Hervás y Panduro intentó compaginar los elementos centrales de la comprensión católica postridentina del ser humano y las pasiones corporales con los avances de la medicina dieciochesca. Con ello, se pretende explorar el carácter dialéctico que definió la cultura corporal y emocional de la reacción anti-ilustrada frente a al estilo sentimental de las luces, pero también sus zonas de contacto, préstamos y transferencias.

Published: October 2024

Abstract
Neurofibroma is an autosomal benign disorder. It can be localized, diffuse or invasive like plexiform neurofibroma that involves the nerves, muscle, tissues, skeleton. It represents itself as a destructive variant of neurofibroma, mostly present as orbital or periorbital neurofibroma or may be associated with autosomal dominant disease. Clinical diagnosis of neurofibromatosis (NF) according to National Institutes of Health (NIH) criteria should have more than two of the seven features including lisch nodules, cafe’- au-lait spots, plexiform neurofibroma, optic glioma, freckling, first degree relative with NF or dysplasia of cortical bones. However, proper early diagnosis is still crucial due to its various presentation such as cheek mass, painless swelling on skin, chalazion, intratracheal tumor, genital swelling or ptosis. It is reported that neurofibroma often represents as ocular or facial swelling. Here we are presenting features of neurofibroma of eight cases of patients from Civil Hospital, Karachi. These cases had main complain of overhanging skin mass mainly on orbital or periorbital region that damage the area and with poor daily activities. Multiple nodules on face and body along with them Cafe’-au-lait spots and lisch nodules were main signs. While, other signs i.e. ptosis, pterygium, telecanthus and muddy discoloration of conjunctiva need further evaluation for correlation with neurofibromatosis. Debulking surgery was planned for most of the cases but the huge disfigurement caused by overhanging skin mass and nodules made it a challenge for plastic surgeons to provide good outcomes with minimum damage.

Authors: Mistry Charvi P. , Bhanderi Dinesh J. 
Published: October 2024

Abstract

Background:
Coronavirus has infected 44.7 million Indians until December 2022. After recovery, patients are developing long-term effects of COVID-19. Research is required to know the burden of post-COVID-19 syndrome (PCS) and factors leading it. To estimate the prevalence of PCS and its associated factors in Anand district of Gujarat state. This cross-sectional study was conducted in 8 talukas of Anand district.

Methods and Material:
Sample size of 450 patients divided into the hospitalized group and home/facility isolated group with samples of 300 and 150, respectively. Information was collected using a pretested semistructured questionnaire after taking written informed consent. It included demographic details, personal history, COVID-19-related information, and questions regarding persistent/newly developed symptoms after 12 weeks of COVID-19. The data collected were entered in Microsoft Excel 2019 and analyzed by SPSS version 15. Descriptive analysis followed by univariate analysis and logistic regression was performed. Among 450, 56% of patients were male and 43.3% were female.

Results:
The study reported 25.11% prevalence of PCS. Majority (82%) of patients having PCS had Grade I symptoms. Common symptoms recorded were weakness (10%) and breathlessness (4%). PCS was found to be associated with the hospitalization status of a patient, administration of drugs like antacids, Ivermectin, and Insulin.

Conclusions:
Looking at current prevalence of PCS, well-sensitized healthcare system is needed to be established. Further research is required to explore more risk factors leading to PCS and various treatment options for PCS.
Exploring the Socio-personal Factors Associated with the Prevalence of Symptoms of Reproductive Tract Infections among Sexually Active Married Women in Ernakulam District of Kerala, India
Authors: George Ann Merrin , Chacko Leena Kunnath 
Published: October 2024

Background:
Reproductive Tract Infections (RTIs)/Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) are the main cause of maternal mortality and morbidity in India. The prevalence of the symptoms of RTIs was found to be very high in community-based studies. However only a few studies have explored the factors associated with it. This study aims to determine the socio-personal factors associated with the prevalence of symptoms of RTIs among sexually active married women in Ernakulam district of Kerala.

Material and Methods:
The study adopted a cross-sectional approach and was conducted among 640 married women in the reproductive age group.

Results:
The prevalence of the symptoms of RTIs was found to be 56.9% and about 60.16% of them had experienced multiple symptoms. Multivariate analysis showed that those women living in the urban areas (OR: 0.49, 95% CI: 0.334, 0.719), having no previous history of obstetric/gynecological risk factors (OR: 1.89, 95% CI: 1.119, 3.19) and using both clothes and sanitary pads interchangeably during menstruation (OR: 0.46, 95% CI: 0.282, 0.734) were found to be at less risk of contracting RTIs.

Conclusion:
The use of sanitary pads along with cloth pads can be enhanced rather than only using reusable cloths during menstruation. Also, efforts to improve the reproductive health of the women and reduce the obstetric/gynaecological risk factors should be devised to curtail the peak of RTIs.
Primary Breast Necrotising Fasciitis in an Elderly Woman Managed with Nipple–Areola Conservation and Delayed Primary Closure in a Resource-Poor Setting A Case Report
Authors: Okoli Chinedu Michael , Oguwike Gideon Ahamefuna , Chinedu-Okoli Tochukwu Daniella , Egbujor Pascal Ndubuisi 
Published: October 2024

Abstract
Primary breast necrotising fasciitis is a rare disease that can rapidly progress with high morbidity and mortality rates. Due to its rare occurrence, it is often misdiagnosed. This case was a 65-year-old, obese, immobile, and newly diagnosed woman who presented with a 2-week history of progressive left breast pain and swelling with associated darkening of the breast skin and discharge of foul-smelling fluid. There was no history of fever and the nipple–areola complex was spared. The surrounding healthy skin has a characteristic peau d’orange and erythematous. Two discrete and slightly tender left axillary lymph nodes were noted. At the presentation, her blood sugar was high. Initially, a breast malignancy was suspected but later an ultrasound showed increased fibrous and fatty tissue architecture of the mammary gland. It also noted inflammatory collections within the mammary glands and thus concluded breast inflammation. Early intervention with antibiotic cover and wound debridement forestalled the progress of the disease and nipple–areola salvage. The wound was later covered by delayed primary closure after 14 days of wound dressing with a silver-based solution. Breast asymmetry was noted as a surgical complication. Early aggressive intervention in necrotising fasciitis of the breast in an elderly woman with comorbidities contributed to the preservation of nipple–areola complex with eventual satisfactory management using direct wound closure.
