Published: July 2024

Abstract

Background: Neonatal respiratory distress syndrome is a respiratory problem recognized as one or more signs of tachypnea, Bradypnea, nasal flaring, chest retractions, grunting, and respiratory pauses. It is one of the leading causes of neonatal mortality, especially in developing countries. Although it is one of the leading causes, there haven't been studies conducted on mortality rates and predictors in Ethiopia.
Objective: To assess the mortality rate and its predictors among neonates with respiratory distress syndrome admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of Debre Markos comprehensive specialized hospital, Northwest Ethiopia.
Method: An institution-based retrospective cohort study was conducted among 384 neonates admitted with respiratory distress syndrome to the neonatal intensive care unit of Debre Markos comprehensive specialized hospital from January 1, 2020, to March 30, 2023. Data was extracted using checklist and entered into EPI Data 4.6. Finally, export to STATA version 14.1 for further management and analysis. The Kaplan-Meier curve with the log-rank test was computed to estimate failure time and compare failure status between independent groups. Both bivariable and multivariable Cox regression models were applied to identify predictors of mortality. The model assumption was checked by a graph and the Schoenfeld residual global test. The final model's fitness was checked using the Cox-Snell residual test.
Result: Among 384 neonates with RDS 36.7% were dead during t study period, with an overall mortality rate of 7.5 per 100 neonate days of observation. The median time to mortality was 13 neonatal days (3 and 16 days of IQR), with a total follow-up of 1864 neonate-day observations. Preterm (AHR=1.54, 95% CI: 1.03–2.31), home delivery (AHR=2.25, 95% CI: 1.28–3.95), and maternal hypertension (AHR=3.59, 95% CI: 1.66-7.77) were the significant predictors.
Conclusion: This study found that the neonatal mortality rate is high. The predictors significantly associated with neonatal mortality among neonates admitted with RDS were preterm birth, home delivery, and neonates born from hypertensive mothers. Collaboration efforts are needed with families, labor and NICU health care providers, institutions, and the community to reduce neonatal mortality.

Authors: Choudhary# Jyoti , Shariff Malini 
Published: July 2024

Abstract

Objectives: To establish the ecological correlation between the Acinetobacter baumannii isolates by performing Multilocus Sequence typing
Material and methods:A total of 181 isolates (Sputum (116), lower respiratory tract other than sputum (36), upper respiratory tract (20), Environment (medical) 4, and Blood (5)) of Acinetobacter baumannii were retrieved from our repository. DNA was isolated and Multilocus Sequence Typing was performed according to the Pasteur scheme. The amplified fragments were sequenced by outsourcing, and the locus and the sequence types were determined as given in the PUBMLST site. The clonal complexes were assigned using eBURST.
Results and Conclusion:
Out of the 181 isolates, 20 were colonizers and 4 were from hospital environment. All the study isolates except 4 were multidrug resistant. 23 sequence types were unique and were assigned new sequence types. Among them, 2125 (n=12), an SLV of 2, was the commonest followed by 2126 (n=2) which was a DLV of 2 and SLV of 2125. Others were singletons. Among the known STs 149 (n=72) was the commonest followed by ST 2 (n=62) & 415(5), ST 10 (n=4), ST 15, ST622 and ST1482 (3 each). ST149 had 1SLV ST1482 (3). ST 2 has 5 SLVs (415, 1555, 2125, 2128, & 2131, and 2 DLVs (2130 & 2126). eBURST analysis of the study isolates showed three groups Group I (86 isolates) with ST 2 as the primary founder, group II (6 isolates) and group 3 (79 isolates) with ST 149 as the primary founder. All the other 10 isolates were singletons. There was no difference in antimicrobial sensitivity or sequence types of the clinical and colonizing isolates. The sequence types of the study isolates were compared to the world isolates in the PUBMLST database.
A Machine Learning-based Scheme for Enhancing the Detection of Position Falsification Attacks in Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks
Authors: Abdelkreem Eslam , Hussein Sherif , Tammam Ashraf 
Published: July 2024

Abstract

A vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) is a wireless network established between vehicles and surrounding infrastructure to enable information exchange between them. Consequently, many applications that can enhance passengers' security assurance and traffic flow are built upon this information. However, malicious nodes can manipulate the exchanged data to attack other nodes and disrupt the network’s normal behavior. For example, if an attacker broadcasts a falsified vehicle’s location, the functionality of applications that rely on accurate location sharing will be confused, and deadly accidents may occur. Thus, many studies have been conducted to implement Misbehavior Detection Schemes (MDSs) to identify position spoofing attacks in VANET. However, the performance results of these MDSs are limited in detecting some attack types, and most of them rely on application layer features that the attacker can alter before transmission to evade the detection model. So, this paper proposes an MDS for position falsification attack detection that employs a set of commonly used features besides a physical-layer-based feature called RSSIConf. The RSSIConf feature relies on the Received Signal Strength Indicator of received messages and its confidence intervals at different confidence levels and distances. The evaluations show that the proposed model outperforms existing approaches, where the improvements range between 0.76% to 13.26% in accuracy and 0.74% to 12.71% in F1-Score, depending on the detected attack type.

Abstract

As societal interactions increasingly involve both intentional and unintentional agents, understanding their effects on human cognition becomes paramount. This study investigates the neural correlates of interacting with intentional versus artificial agents in a simulated tennis game scenario. Employing functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), brain activity in 50 male participants during gameplay against both types of opponents was analyzed. The used methodological approach ensures ecological validity by simulating real-world decision-making scenarios while participants undergo fNIRS scanning, avoiding the constraints of traditional neuroimaging methods. Six prefrontal cortex channels are focused on, leveraging the 10-20 system, to capture nuanced differences in brain activity. Wavelet analysis was utilized to dissect the data into frequency-specific differences, revealing subtle variations across different channels and frequency bands. Moreover, activity was quantified by comparing average data signals between rest and play modes across all points using Generalized Linear Model (GLM). The findings unveil significant differences in neural activation patterns, particularly in one specific channel and frequency range, suggesting distinct cognitive processing when interacting with intentional agents. These results align with previous neuroimaging studies and contribute to understanding the neural underpinnings of human-agent interactions in naturalistic settings. While acknowledging study limitations, including sample homogeneity and spatial accuracy constraints, the study's findings underscore the potential of fNIRS in exploring complex cognitive phenomena beyond laboratory confines.

Abstract

Objective
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the major cause of catheter associated urinary tract infections (UTI). As the production of biofilm is usually associated with enhanced antibiotic resistance, formation of biofilm by UPEC poses a challenge against its eradication. Vitamin C is showing great promise as an antimicrobial agent in recent studies. In this study, we explored antibacterial and biofilm prevention property of vitamin C against biofilm produced by fresh UPEC strains on urinary catheter tubes. As expression of fimbriae can enhance biofilm formation by UPEC, the capacity of the strains for heamagglutionation with human O + ve red blood cells and detection of fimbrial gene by PCR were also explored.
Results
The average minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of vitamin C for UPEC strains were 3.90 mg/ml and 7.81 mg/ml, respectively. Increased biofilm formation on plastic surfaces and on silicone catheter tubes were noted at sub-MIC concentrations of vitamin C. Biofilm prevention concentration (BPC) of vitamin was calculated to be 6.24 mg/ml. Gene detection by PCR revealed UPEC strains possessed type1-fimbriae (fimH) gene and were also capable of hemagglutinating human O + ve red blood cells, indicating the presence of fimbriae. Taken together, these findings indicate that vitamin C possess antibacterial and biofilm prevention properties against UPEC strains both on plastic surfaces and on silicone catheter tubes.

Published: July 2024

Abstract

Previous studies have shown that aspirin is effective as a prophylactic agent against venous thromboembolism (VTE) following proximal femoral fractures (PFF). In Japan, there is a lack of evidence regarding its efficacy and safety in this context. Consequently, aspirin is not covered by insurance for the prevention of venous thrombosis. This study aimed to investigate whether continued aspirin use in patients with PFF, who were already taking aspirin for cerebrovascular disease prevention before injury is effective as a prophylaxis for deep vein thrombosis (DVT). We retrospectively analyzed PFF patients (≥ 65 years) who underwent postoperative duplex ultrasonography from January 2010 to December 2023.The study compared patients taking aspirin alone (aspirin group) and those not taking antiplatelet agents or anticoagulants (control group), matched by propensity scores. We enrolled 1064 patients while 161 (15%) were in the aspirin group. After matching, 132 patients were analyzed. DVT incidence was not statistically significant between the aspirin (53) and control groups (57) (OR: 0.72; 95%CI: 0.44–1.20; p = 0.21). Proximal DVT incidence was also similar (OR: 0.83; 95%CI: 0.25–2.73; p = 0.76). Continued aspirin use in PFF patients who were taking aspirin prior to injury did not reduce the incidence of DVT or proximal DVT, indicating no prophylactic benefit.

Abstract

Background
We aimed to explore the differences in plasma biomarker levels between patients with familial cerebral cavernous malformations (FCCM) and their healthy first-degree relatives (FDRs) and between FCCM patients with and without severe chronic disease aggressiveness (CDA).
Methods
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning and genetic testing was performed in patients with multiple CCMs and their FDRs. Sixty-seven plasma biomarkers were tested using a customised multiplex bead immunoassay kit. Univariate and multivariate unconditional logistic regression analyses were conducted to determine the associations between plasma factors and the risk of developing FCCM and severe CDA. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated for each independent risk factor.
Results
Plasma factors of 37 patients with FCCM and 37 FDRs were examined. Low CD31 (P < 0.001) and BDNF levels (P = 0.013) were independent risk factors for FCCM. The best model was achieved by combining the results of CD31 and BDNF (AUC = 0.845, sensitivity 0.838, specificity 0.784, cutoff score − 4.295) to distinguish patients with FCCM from healthy FDRs. Low serpin E1/PAI-1 (P = 0.011) and high ROBO4 levels (P = 0.013) were independent risk factors for severe CDA in patients with FCCM. The best model was achieved by combining the results of E1/PAI-1 and ROBO4 levels (AUC = 0.913, sensitivity 1.000, specificity 0.760, cutoff score − 0.525) to identify patients with FCCM and severe CDA.
Conclusions
The plasma concentrations of CD31 and BDNF seem to be lower in patients with FCCM than in their healthy FDRs. Low serpin E1/PAI-1 and high ROBO4 concentrations may be correlated with high lesion burden and risk of recurrent bleeding.

Abstract

Objective To analyse and summarise the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, treatment and prognostic features of abdominal wall endometriosis.
Methods A retrospective analysis of patients with abdominal wall endometriosis who attended Changzhou Second Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2013 to December 2022 was performed. They were grouped according to the depth of infiltration of the lesion and the direction of incision, and the differences between the groups were compared.
Results A total of 228 patients with abdominal wall endometriosis were included in this study, including 210 cases with a history of abdominal transverse incision surgery, 16 cases with a history of vertical incision surgery, 1 case with a history of uterine fibroids surgery, 1 case with primary abdominal endometriosis, and 178 cases with the primary symptom of cyclic pain. They were classified as solitary and complex according to the number of lesions. Both were statistically significant for BMI, number of caesarean sections, operative time, bleeding and postoperative hospital stay (p<0.05). According to the depth of infiltration, they were divided into fascial, rectus abdominis and peritoneal types. There were differences between the three in latency time, CA125, maximum diameter of the lesion, operation time, bleeding and postoperative hospital stay (p<0.05). The direction of incision for caesarean section had no significant effect on the development of endometriosis in the abdominal wall or whether the lesions were multiple (p>0.05). On imaging, magnetic resonance imaging was more accurate for lesion typing.
Conclusion AWE should be diagnosed early and treated surgically. The clinical manifestations of the same type are different, and CA125 test and abdominal wall ultrasound can be used preoperatively to determine lesion typing. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) may be used to improve preoperative preparation for difficult diagnosis or staging.
