Abstract

Background:
Mankind has been afflicted with the calculi in urinary tract dating back to 4000 B.C. It has been considered the most common urinary tract illness. Preventing the recurrence of renal stones remains a serious human health issue. Various procedures are available for the removal of calculi with associated different complications in the contemporary medicine.

Objective:
The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of a polyherbal Unani formulation; Majoon Sang Sar-e-Mahi, in the patients of Hasat-e-Bauliyah (urolithiasis).

Materials and Methods:
This was an exploratory, single-arm, pre- and post-treatment clinical trial entailing 30 radiologically diagnosed cases of urolithiasis. The patients, who agree to give the informed consent and follow-up the protocol of either sex having the age between 18 and 65 years, were included in the study. Five grams of Majoon Sang Sar-e-Mahi was advised to take orally twice in a day for 45 days.

Results:
The assessments of subjective parameters were done on every 15th day of follow-up using an arbitrary scale. All the patients were objectively assessed by an ultrasonography (USG) of the abdomen and pelvis before and after the completion of clinical trial. The results were analyzed statistically using Wilcoxon signed-rank test, Student’s paired t-test (two-tailed), and proportion test. The subjective parameters like pain in abdomen showed significant relief with (P < 0.001). Objective parameters like USG abdomen showed significant results (P < 0.001). The size of the stone showed a statistically significant reduction (P < 0.001).

Conclusion:
No significant adverse effect was observed during and after the trial. Based on achieved results, it may be concluded that Majoon Sang Sar-e-Mahi is safe and effective in the management of the patients suffering from renal calculi.

Background:
The world over, women are victims of violence in close and intimate relationships where they are expected to be safe and protected. Intimate partner violence (IPV) significantly impacts the physical and mental well-being of those affected. This study assessed the prevalence, pattern and effects of IPV amongst women in Abeokuta South Local Government Area (LGA) of Ogun State, South West Nigeria.

Materials and Methods:
This community-based cross-sectional study was carried out in Abeokuta – South LGA in Ogun State. Data were collected from 339 women in intimate relationships using a structured interviewer-administered questionnaire. Ethical approval (HPRS/381/471) was obtained from the Ogun State Ministry of Health Ethical Review Committee. Analysis was done using IBM® SPSS version 23, and results were presented in frequencies and proportions using tables and charts.

Results:
About three-quarters (73.2%) of the 339 respondents had experienced one form of IPV. Psychological/emotional violence, 224 (66.1%), and physical violence, 161 (47.5%), were the study’s most commonly reported forms of violence. Amongst those affected, 186 (54.9%) were ‘insulted’, 87 (25.7%) were ‘embarrassed in public’ and another 124 (36.6%) were slapped. The effects of IPV reported were bruises/lacerations, unwanted pregnancies, sexually transmitted infections and attempted suicide.

Conclusion:
The prevalence of IPV of all forms were high in the studied population. Therefore, the government needs to create more awareness of the problem and promote investments in women’s empowerment to reverse this trend.

Background:
Interprofessional collaboration in healthcare is important to optimise healthcare delivery. However, relatively few studies have been conducted on the topic in Nigeria, especially in the North.

Objective:
The objective of this study was to determine the levels of interprofessional collaboration, enablers and barriers amongst healthcare workers.

Materials and Methods:
Data were collected using a five-domain modified Assessment of Interprofessional Team Collaboration Scale questionnaire, with a Likert scale of 1–5. The ideal mean score was ≤2 for the barriers domain and ≥4 for the other domains. Data were analysed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 23.

Results:
Two hundred and sixty-six participants responded to the questionnaire. Male and female respondents were 131 (49.2%) each. Half of the respondents were 31 to 40 years old. One hundred and thirty-six (51.1%) of the respondents were nurses, and 48 (18.0%) were doctors. The modal working experience was 6–11 years (41.4%), and 117 (44.0%) respondents had at least a bachelor’s degree. The mean scores for the domains were 4.1032 for partnership, 3.2383 for cooperation, 3.6309 for coordination, 4.2844 for enablers and 3.7902 for barriers.

Conclusion:
There was adequate level of partnership and enablers amongst the healthcare workers but insufficient cooperation and coordination and high level of barriers. Staff training on cooperation, coordination and identified barriers is necessary to improve interprofessional collaboration in the hospital.

EXPERIENCE OF USE OF BIOREGULATORY THERAPY DRUGS TRAUMEL® S AND LYMPHOMYOSOT AFTER TONSILLECTOMY
Authors: Карпищенко С.А. , Колесникова О.М. 
Published: June 2024

Радикальным способом лечения хронического тонзиллита является тонзиллэктомия. Для обезболивания и купирования воспалительного процесса в послеоперационном периоде в качестве симптоматической терапии чаще всего используются системные нестероидные противовоспалительные препараты (НПВП), однако их частое и/или длительное применение чревато развитием побочных эффектов. Пациентам, перенесшим тонзиллэкомию, могут быть рекомендованы препараты биорегуляционной терапии Траумель® С и Лимфомиозот, способствующие уменьшению боли и снижению отека в горле, а также, предположительно, потенцированию эффектов НПВП. Приведены результаты исследования, свидетельствующие, что на фоне приема препаратов Траумель® С и Лимфомиозот после тонзиллэктомии возможно снижение дозы применяемых НПВП, а в некоторых случаях и полный отказ от них.
A radical method of treating chronic tonsillitis is tonsillectomy. To relieve pain and relieve the inflammatory process in the postoperative period, systemic nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are most often used as symptomatic therapy, but their frequent and/or long-term use is fraught with the development of side effects. Patients who have undergone tonsillectomy may be recommended bioregulatory therapy drugs Traumeel® S and Lymphomyosot, which help reduce pain and swelling in the throat, and also, presumably, potentiate the effects of NSAIDs. The results of a study are presented showing that while taking the drugs Traumeel® S and Lymphomyosot after tonsillectomy, it is possible to reduce the dose of NSAIDs used, and in some cases, completely abandon them.
EMPIRICAL PHYTOTHERAPY OF IDIOPATHIC MALE INFERTILITY. LITERATURE REVIEW

Published: June 2024

Мужское бесплодие остается актуальной медико-социальной, демографической научно-прикладной проблемой по причине мультифакторности и недостаточной изученности механизмов патогенеза, что предопределяет неудовлетворительные результаты фармакотерапии, особенно при неуточненном (идиопатическом) мужском бесплодии, когда она приобретает не целенаправленный, а эмпирический характер. Одним из наиболее популярных направлений современной эмпирической фармакотерапии идиопатического мужского бесплодия является фитотерапия, эффективность которой неоднозначна и недостаточно изучена в клинических исследованиях высокого уровня доказательности. Литературный обзор показал, что, несмотря на установленную эффективность ряда химических субстанций, выделенных из различных лекарственных растений, в отношении мужской репродуктивной функции в экспериментальных исследованиях, подавляющее большинство растительных агентов имеют недостаточную или неоднозначную доказательную базу эффективности при лечении идиопатического мужского бесплодия в клинических исследованиях. Таким образом, далеко не все растительные субстанции с позиционирующимся у них «репродуктивным эффектом» в действительности имеют доказанные эффекты при исследованиях у людей, поэтому к выбору фитотерапевтических агентов при лечении идиопатического мужского бесплодия в настоящее время следует подходить крайне тщательно, особенно в случаях, когда мы выбираем фитотерапию как вариант эмпирической монотерапии мужских репродуктивных нарушений.
Male infertility remains an urgent medical, social, demographic scientific and applied problem due to the multifactorial nature and insufficient knowledge of the mechanisms of pathogenesis, which determines the unsatisfactory results of pharmacotherapy, especially in unspecified (idiopathic) male infertility, when it acquires an empirical character rather than a purposeful one. Phytotherapy remains one of the most popular areas of modern empirical pharmacotherapy for idiopathic male infertility, the effectiveness of which is ambiguous and insufficiently studied in clinical studies of a high level of evidence. A literature review has shown that, despite the established effectiveness of a number of chemical substances isolated from various medicinal plants in relation to male reproductive function in experimental studies, the vast majority of herbal agents have insufficient or ambiguous evidence base of effectiveness in the treatment of idiopathic male infertility in clinical studies. Thus, not all plant substances with a “reproductive effect” positioned in them actually have proven effects in human studies, therefore, the choice of phytotherapeutic agents in the treatment of idiopathic male infertility should currently be approached extremely carefully and attentively, especially in cases when we choose phytotherapy as an option for empirical monotherapy of male reproductive violations.

Published: June 2024

The study aimed to explore teachers’ professional identities through motivation and commitment to teaching. It highlights teachers’ initial and sustaining motivation that shapes their professional identity. The study also focuses on how teachers’ commitment to teaching forms their identity. The study intended to provide an answer to the research question, of how motivation and commitment shape the three teachers’ professional identities in teaching. The study applied the document research method, where the researcher used three documentary videos from three teachers namely Robin, Vanday, and Imoto as the source of the data. For the data collection, the researcher watched and transcribed the speech from each video and coded it according to each category. The findings reveal that the three teachers’ motivation significantly boosts their productivity due to their self-efficacy, personal experience within society, and passion to teach the students, their love and concern for the students. The findings for commitment reveal that teachers’ independence, competence, and connectedness play important roles for teachers to be committed in teaching. This study implies that motivation and commitment play key roles in teachers’ professional identity.
