Rehabilitation Management for Sarcopenia in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: A Literature Review
Authors: Widjanantie Siti Chandra , Lestari Fiona , Nusdwinuringtyas Nury , Susanto Agus Dwi 
Published: June 2024

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a prevalent and debilitating chronic respiratory condition that not only affects the lungs but has far-reaching systemic consequences; one such consequence is the heightened risk of developing sarcopenia, a condition characterized by progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength. Recent studies have highlighted the significant prevalence of sarcopenia among COPD patients, with rates ranging from 7.9% to 66.7%. This association underscores the importance of early identification and intervention to mitigate the adverse outcomes related to both conditions. Managing COPD patients with sarcopenia is fraught with challenges, primarily due to the multifaceted nature of both conditions. Sarcopenia exacerbates the decline in respiratory function and physical performance in COPD patients, complicating treatment and management strategies. The complexity is further amplified by the need for personalized treatment plans that address these conditions' pulmonary and musculoskeletal aspects. Precise assessment and re-evaluation are essential to ensure optimal outcomes and enhance physical and functional well-being. Rehabilitation for COPD patients with sarcopenia involves a multidisciplinary approach, focusing on exercise training, nutritional support, and pulmonary interventions. Pulmonary rehabilitation programs, tailored to individual patient needs and capabilities, have shown promise in improving exercise capacity, functional performance, and overall health status, thereby enhancing the quality of life for these patients. In this literature review, we will discuss the elevated risk of sarcopenia in COPD patients, highlight the significance of rehabilitation management, and emphasize the pivotal role of precise assessment and re-evaluation in optimizing the care provided to this population.

Authors: Irem Faiza 
Published: June 2024

Background: Tutorials are one of oldest teaching methodologies and are effectively being used for teaching in medical education. The objective of this study is to identify student’s perspective regarding conventional tutorial teaching in undergraduate, pre-clinical medical curriculum and recognise appropriate changes needed to improve learning of higher order critical thinking and decision making skills among medical graduates in tutorials.
Subject and methods: This is a mixed method study conducted at Fatima Jinnah Medical University. Qualitative data was collected by structured interviews from twelve second year medical students. Interviews were transcribed and thematic analysis done for results. DREEM questionnaire was modified to design a questionnaire and was used to collected quantitative data from second year MBBS class, through an online survey.
Results: Twelve female medical students of 2nd year MBBS of FJMU participated in structured interviews. Content analysis of transcribed interviews identified three main themes i. e self-directed learning, collaborative learning and problem-based learning. Majority of students made response that tutorials provide active class room participation (60%), learning motivation (55.7%) and learning stimulation (48%). They also opined learning is learner centered (53%) and objective oriented (70%), it builds competence (50%) and confidence (67%), add value to time (57%) and enhances interpersonal skills (44%) in stress free environment (70%). Students also valued handouts and learning materials provided in tutorials (59.6%). However, they felt teaching in tutorials is monotonous (69.36%), do not support memorization (44%) and lack problem solving skills learning (39%).
Conclusion: Overall, tutorial learning can be a powerful tool for enhancing student learning and development when implemented thoughtfully and strategically.

Authors: Yasin Unzila , Matanat Yumna , Javed Hasnain , Fatima Warda 
Published: June 2024

Background: Benign Breast Diseases (BBD) are a diverse group of conditions characterized by abnormal breast morphology and lesions which may be caused by both genetic and environmental factors as well as infectious agents such as bacteria and viruses. Since it is generally accepted that these conditions do not usually pose a risk for breast cancer so a small amount of information is available about them. Present study undertook the investigation of the association of various factors with benign breast disease, including family history, history of abortions, tumors in other organs of the body, menopausal status, and rs80356932 variant of the BRCA1 gene.
Patients and Methods: This case control study included 91 patients of BBD and 100 normal individuals at Services Institute of Medical Sciences and Jinnah Hospital from July 2021 to July 2022. Demographical and clinical data was collected with the help of a pre designed form, and blood sample was also collected with informed consent. Tetra-ARMS-PCR was performed on DNA extracted from these samples to determine the genotype of rs80356932. Chi-square test of independence was used via SPSS version 22 for the measurement of association.
Results: The results reported that the family history, menopause status, history of abortions and tumor in any other organ of the body were found to be significantly associated with benign breast tumor/ disease (P-value <0.05). SNP rs80356932 was also found associated with presentation of benign breast diseases (P-value <0.05).
Conclusion: Family history, menopause status, history of abortions and BRCA1 variant rs80356932 are risk factors for BBD development. We recommend screening of all patients of benign breast disease for these factors to better understand and manage the condition, as well as to assess the possibility of development of breast cancer in these patients.

Published: June 2024

Background: Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic disease of immune-mediated damage to the small intestine resulting in variable symptoms of malabsorption. Iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) is one such frequent symptom. As these are high percentages for celiac disease in patients presenting with iron deficiency anaemia, the study's main aim was to determine the frequency of celiac disease in children presenting with IDA.
Material and Methods: It was a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted at Children's Hospital & the Institute of Child Health, Multan, for a duration of 6 months from 16th January 2020 to 15th July 2020. A total of 132 patients were enrolled; we included patients from Ages one year to 14 years of both genders, newly diagnosed patients with iron deficiency anaemia who are not taking treatment for this, we studied age, sex, duration of anaemia, the severity of anaemia, we investigated Hb, serum ferritin, anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies level and endoscopic biopsy done.
Results: We enrolled 132 patients presenting with IDA. Among all 132 patients, CD was found in 23 (17.4%) Mean age of the patients was 7.61±4.21 years. The mean value of the duration of anaemia of the patients was 20.39±6.17 days. 60(45.45%) patients were male, and 72 (54.55%) were female.
Conclusion: The frequency of CD in children with iron deficiency is found to be 17.4%. Therefore, we recommend a Multicenter study at regional and national levels to assess the disease burden and early diagnosis for appropriate and timely management of this vulnerable population.
Assessment of spatial polarization of regions in the Far East of Russia
Authors: Martynov Vassilii 
Published: June 2024

The relevance of the study lies in strengthening the gradients of social and economic development. Their extreme form is spatial polarization which is being updated at the present stage by globalization and the collapse of the socialist system. At the same time, competitiveness factors strength and as a consequence the polarization appears. In this context Russia is no exception though number of territories have been little studied with regard to the development of the polarization process there. In this connection the territory of the Russian Far East is studied (in the modern borders of the Far Eastern Federal District). The purpose of the article is analysis, visualization, typology of spatial polarization of a given territory. This is done using night satellite images, which have been used in socio-economic research since 1990s all around the world. Preliminarily, the article notes trends in socio-economic development of the study area using a number of coefficients at the regional level. It is proposed, along with quantitative indicators, to use a more pronounced form — night satellite images. They are both more visual and more efficient in comparison with statistics. We used DMSP OLS and VIIRS/NPP publicly available images of the territory of the Far East for different years. As a result of combining them with the author&apos;s method for determining spatial polarization, four types of regions were identified according to the level of spatial polarization, which are briefly characterized.

Abstract
Highly multiplexed, fiber-fed spectroscopy is enabling surveys of millions of stars and galaxies. The performance of these surveys depends on accurately positioning fibers in the focal plane to capture target light. We describe a technique to measure the positioning accuracy of fibers by dithering fibers slightly around their ideal locations. This approach also enables measurement of the total system throughput and point-spread function delivered to the focal plane. We then apply this technique to observations from the Dark Energy Survey Instrument (DESI), and demonstrate that DESI positions fibers to within 0.″08 of their targets (5% of a fiber diameter) and achieves a system throughput within about 7% of expectations.

Published: June 2024

Abstract
We present continuum observations from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array of 10 high-redshift (2.2 ≤ z ≤ 2.7) ultraluminous quasars (QSOs) and constrain the presence of hot, ionized, circumgalactic gas in a stacking analysis. We measure a Compton-y parameter profile with a peak value of (1.7 ± 1.1) × 10−6 at a radius of ∼50 kpc. We compare our stacked observations to active galactic nucleus feedback wind models and generalized Navarro–Frenk–White pressure profile models to constrain the wind luminosity and halo mass of the stacked QSOs. Our observations constrain the observed average halo mass to M
500 < 1 × 1013
M
⊙ and the average feedback wind power <1 × 1012
L
⊙, which is <1% of the bolometric luminosity of the quasar.
Source Region and Launch Characteristics of Magnetic-arch-blowout Solar Coronal Mass Ejections Driven by Homologous Compact-flare Blowout Jets
Authors: Patel Binal D. , Joshi Bhuwan , Sterling Alphonse C. , Moore Ronald L. 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
We study the formation of four coronal mass ejections (CMEs) originating from homologous blowout jets. All of the blowout jets originated from NOAA Active Region (AR) 11515 on 2012 July 2, within a time interval of ≈14 hr. All of the CMEs were wide (angular widths ≈ 95°–150°), and propagated with speeds ranging between ≈300 and 500 km s−1 in LASCO coronagraph images. Observations at various EUV wavelengths in Solar Dynamics Observatory/Atmospheric Imaging Assembly images reveal that in all the cases, the source region of the jets lies at the boundary of the leading part of AR 11515 that hosts a small filament before each event. Coronal magnetic field modeling based on nonlinear force-free extrapolations indicates that in each case, the filament is contained inside of a magnetic flux rope that remains constrained by overlying compact loops. The southern footpoint of each filament is rooted in the negative polarity region where the eruption onsets occur. This negative polarity region undergoes continuous flux changes, including emergence and cancellation with opposite polarity in the vicinity of the flux rope, and the EUV images reveal brightening episodes near the filament’s southeastern footpoint before each eruption. Therefore, these flux changes are likely the cause of the subsequent eruptions. These four homologous eruptions originate near adjacent feet of two large-scale loop systems connecting from that positive polarity part of the AR to two remote negative polarity regions, and result in large-scale consequences in the solar corona.
