The current study describes a unique method for degrading methylene blue dye utilizing Mn-doped Bi2O3 nanoparticles (NPs) exposed to UV light. Bi2O3 nanoparticles (NPs) doped with Mn were produced using a hydrothermal process. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and were use to characterize the prepared nanoparticles. It was discovered that the band gaps of Mn/ Bi2O3 NPs are 2%, 3%, and 4%, respectively, and are 4.13 eV, 3.92 eV, and 3.77 eV. Functional group identification using Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Mn-doped Bi2O3 nanoparticles were captured in SEM pictures at various magnifications, and the photos clearly display the particles' dual morphologies, cubic and cylindrical. The Mn-doped Bi2O3 particles were found to be crystalline, with mean diameters of 20 nm, according to the XRD data. The photodegradation efficiency of Mn/Bi2O3 at experimental dye concentrations of 2%, 3%, and 4% was determined to be 90.29, 91.6, and 93.16 percent, respectively, over a 150 minute time interval. At the ideal catalyst dosage of 0.2 g and concentration of 40 ppm, a high percentage of dye degradation was observed. Numerous metals have been doped into zinc oxides, although no work has documented doping of Bi2O3 with Mn. Additionally, it was utilized for the first time to look at the deterioration of methylene blue dye.

Authors: Siddique Hafsa , Tariq Syed Sufyan , Asghar Syed Parvez , Fahim Muhammad Faisal 
Published: July 2024

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an RNA virus with seven primary genotypes. It is highly prevalent in Pakistan, especially genotype 3. HCV infection can progress to a chronic state with further complications. Direct-acting antiviral agents (DAAV) were introduced in 2014 as a treatment option, some of which include Sofosbuvir (SOF), Daclatasvir (DCV), Velpatasvir (VEL) and Ribavirin (RV). This meta-analysis was performed to outline the treatment response and efficacy of DAAV in HCV infected patients.

We systematically searched PubMed, Web of Science, MEDLINE, and Google Scholar for studies from January 2019 to December 2023. The studies selected met the criteria of patients having chronic HCV infection (genotype 3) and either compensated cirrhosis or decompensated chronic liver disease. Treatment regimens with DAAV specifically were included. The primary outcomes [sustained viral response (SVR), rapid virological response (RVR), end-of-treatment response (ETR)] were highlighted to assess treatment response.

The studies proved that the use of direct-acting antiviral agents in different combinations was very effective against HCV infection with minimal side-effects.

Published: July 2024

In recent decades, there has been a notable increase in the prevalence of obesity, particularly visceral obesity, which is associated with heightened morbidity and mortality worldwide. Recently, a series of studies have suggested that facial features, including buccal fat tissue, may serve as alternative indicators of insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular diseases, given that buccal and visceral adipose tissues share histological and metabolic similarities. This review followed the structure of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) protocol yo platforms to answer the research question: How does buccal facial fat act as an early predictor of metabolic syndrome? Buccal fat pad (BFP) was discovered by Xavier Bichat in 1801. Facial fat loss is related to a reduction in visceral fat. Facial parameters, such as the distance between earlobes and jaw width, were used to identify visceral obesity. The reviewed studies emphasize the relationship between facial adipose tissue, especially BFP, and visceral obesity, with valuable implications for clinical practice. Individuals with higher BFP tend to have more visceral fat, highlighting its potential in the early identification of metabolic risks.

Published: July 2024

Older adults are more at risk for side effects from medications. Mainly anticholinergic side effects can lead to central and peripheral side effects on somatic and cognitive levels.
In this study, we determined the anticholinergic load of the medication regimens of residents of a residential care center using two validated measurement scales. We also examined to which extent the class(es) of medications influence this anticholinergic load. Finally, we analyzed the association of a high anticholinergic load with incidents (urinary tract infections, falls, delirium).

In this pilot study we see a high degree of polymedication and use of psychotropic drugs with an anticholinergic effect. On average we established a score of 1.67 on the ACB and a score of 0.87 on the DBI. The anticholinergic load in the ACB is mainly determined by antipsychotics (t = 6.110, p < 0.001), in the DBI an influence of all medications with anticholinergic properties is seen (F = 6.764, p < 0.001). A risk score on the DBI has a statistically significant correlation with experiencing a urinary tract infection (F = 5.877, p = 0.018). This influence remains significant after adjusting for covariates.

The anticholinergic load of medication regimens in residents is high. An increased anticholinergic load is also associated with urinary tract infection. Reducing the anticholinergic load within residential care centers therefore represents an important challenge for the future.

Authors: Ahmed Warda , Fatimi Asad Saulat , Hamza Muhammad , Waqar Usama , Khan Daniyal Ali , Rauf Hareem , Jivani Nadia , Noordin Shahryar 
Published: July 2024

Background:
Current literature concerning upper extremity amputations (UEAs) is very sparse. In this study, we conducted the first multicenter retrospective analysis aiming to identify risk factors associated with unfavorable outcomes in patients undergoing nontraumatic UEAs.

Methods:
A retrospective cohort study was conducted using the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database. Adult patients who underwent nontraumatic UEAs between 2005 and 2021 were divided into two cohorts based on whether they experienced 30-day major morbidity (MM). Thereafter, multivariable binary logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors of MM.

Results:
From a total of 2984 cases, MM was observed in 8.7% of patients. Factors associated with MM included American Society of Anesthesiologists classes 3 (odds ratio [OR], 2.974 [1.862 to 4.748]) and 4 (OR, 4.736 [2.857 to 7.848]), being underweight (OR, 2.370 [1.251 to 4.491]), and suffering from insulin-dependent diabetes (OR, 1.390 [1.018 to 1.898]). In addition, an infectious surgical indication was associated with an increased risk of MM compared with having a benign (OR, 0.648 [0.488 to 0.682]) or malignant (OR, 0.205 [0.091 to 0.462]) indication. Moreover, patients undergoing shoulder amputations were at an increased risk of MM compared with those undergoing amputations of the forearm/wrist (OR, 0.243 [0.072 to 0.819]) and hands/fingers (OR, 0.286 [0.095 to 0.861]).

Conclusion:
The risk factors identified for MM after nontraumatic UEAs should guide surgeons toward appropriately identifying high-risk patients and adequately counseling them preoperatively.

Authors: Cassidy Benjamin P. , Yeramosu Teja , Mbomuwa Foster J. , Chidothi Paul , Wu Hao-Hua , Martin Claude , Harrison William James , Chokotho Linda , Agarwal-Harding Kiran J. 
Published: July 2024

Background:
Pediatric fractures are common in Malawi, and surgical care, when needed, remains inaccessible to many. Understanding which children in Malawi receive surgery or nonsurgical treatment would help set priorities for trauma system development.

Methods:
We used multivariate logistic regression to evaluate associations between surgical treatment and age, sex, school enrollment, injury mechanism, fracture type, open fracture, referral status, hospital of presentation, delayed presentation (≥2 days), healthcare provider, and inpatient vs outpatient treatment.

Results:
From 2016 to 2020, 10,400 pediatric fractures were recorded in the Malawi Fracture Registry. Fractures were most commonly of the wrist (26%), forearm (17%), and elbow (14%). Surgical fixation was performed on 4.0% of patients, and 24 (13.0%) open fractures were treated nonsurgically, without débridement or fixation. Fractures of the proximal and diaphyseal humerus (odds ratio [OR], 3.72; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.36 to 5.87), knee (OR, 3.16; 95% CI, 1.68 to 5.95), and ankle (OR, 2.63; 95% CI, 1.49 to 4.63) had highest odds of surgery. Odds of surgical treatment were lower for children referred from another facility (OR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.49 to 0.77).

Conclusions:
Most Malawian children with fractures are treated nonsurgically, including many who may benefit from surgery. There is a need to increase surgical capacity, optimize referral patterns, and standardize fracture management in Malawi.

The World after the Termination of Intra-EU BITs
Authors: Lavranos Nikos 
Published: July 2024

This article examines the potential consequences of the termination
agreement recently signed by 23 EU Member States, which will soon terminate the
existing intra-EU BITs of the signatory Member States. The author concludes
that the retroactive application of the termination agreement to disputes that
have been initiated before this termination agreement enters into force is a
serious violation of the Rule of Law. He also finds that the Facilitator
procedure offered by the termination agreement is not a suitable tool to settle
any ongoing intra-EU BIT disputes. In light of the significant shortcomings in
the judicial legal systems of many EU Member States, the author calls for the
adoption of an EU Investment Protection Regulation as well as the creation of a
European Investment Court. Finally, despite the fact that the termination
agreement is not intended to apply to intra-EU ECT disputes, the author expects
that the fallout of the Achmea judgment will lead to
substantial ‘reforms’ of the ECT in due course. All these developments will
inevitably lead to a lower standard of investment and investor protection
within the EU.
