Published: May 2024

Background
Futsal demands lower limb power, repeated sprint ability, and technical prowess. Furthermore, anthropometric characteristics have been shown to influence physical capacities and sports performance and, thus, should be assessed alongside physical fitness levels to maximize performance.

Methods
This study aimed to investigate the potential correlations between anthropometric characteristics and physical fitness levels among young Portuguese male futsal players and to compare these attributes across two distinct age groups. Twenty-one male athletes from two age groups (Under-18: N=14 - 16.1 ± 0.6 years old; Under-15: N=7 - 13.7 ± 0.6 years old) were recruited to take part in this investigation. Anthropometric characteristics [body weight, height, body mass index (BMI), waist and hip circumference, and waist-to-hip ratio] were assessed, and participants performed three performance tasks (20-meter sprint, vertical and horizontal jump).

Results
Statistically significant differences regarding body weight (p=0.005), height (p=0.011), and hip circumference (p=0.036) were observed between age groups (Under-18 and Under-15), but no differences were found regarding performance tasks (all p≥0.736).

Conclusion
After analyzing the entire sample, BMI was found to be inversely correlated with horizontal (r=-0.51; p=0.03) and vertical (r=-0.64; p<0.001) jump performance, and waist-to-hip ratio was positively correlated with 20-meter sprint performance (r=0.70; p<0.001). These indicate a correlation between a higher BMI and waist-to-hip ratio with lower physical fitness levels.

Introduction. To date, there has been insuﬃcient research into the prostate volume as a factor that may inﬂuence the eﬀectiveness and safety of surgical treatments. With the advent of relatively new laser techniques, it is important to take a closer look at this parameter, especially considering the success of these techniques in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) of various volumes.Objective. To assess the functional outcomes and postoperative complications of holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) depending on its volume.Materials & Methods. We performed a prospective study of HoLEP on 252 patients. Patients were divided into two groups according to their prostate volume: Group I included 206 patients (81%) with a prostate volume of < 100 mL, and Group II included 46 patients (19%) with a prostate volume ≥ 100 mL.Results. The prostate volume was the most signiﬁcant prognostic factor regarding duration of surgery. This indicator signiﬁcantly diﬀered between the two groups. Group I had an average surgery time of 67.1 ± 26.7 minutes, while Group II had a time of 98.1 ± 24.2 minutes (p < 0.05). There were no signiﬁcant diﬀerences in the number of complications between the groups — 36 cases (17.5%) in Group I and 12 cases (26%) in Group II, as well as functional results of urination between the groups. In the early postoperative period, the Q max in Group I was 17.4 ± 9.1 ml/s, in Group II — 18.2 ± 10.9 ml/s (p > 0.05), PVR — 52 ± 39.4 and 56 ± 31.8 ml (p > 0.05), respectively. After 3 months of observation, there were also no diﬀerences in the studied parameters: IPSS — 5.7 ± 4.1 vs 6.2 ± 4.9 points; QoL — 1.0 ± 0.9 vs 1.1 ± 0.9 points; Q max — 18.9 ± 6.7 vs 20.3 ± 11.5 ml/s; PVR — 53.5 ± 33.1 vs 54.9 ± 30.6 ml (p > 0.05).Conclusion. HoLEP is an eﬀective and safe method of treating patients with diﬀerent volumes of BPH. However, the duration of the procedure is an important factor that inﬂuences the surgery outcome, as it correlates with the prostate volume.

Introduction. The most advanced and eﬀective method of surgical treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is transurethral laser enucleation of the prostate (tLEP). Recently, there has been a growing interest in exploring new approaches to reduce the risk of complications following tLEP.Objective. To evaluate the eﬃcacy of using Phlogenzym® as part of a comprehensive treatment plan for patients following tLEP to reduce dysuria (urinary discomfort), leukocyturia (white blood cells in urine), and prevent infectious and ﬁbrosis-related complications.Materials & methods. An open-label, randomized trial enrolled 105 patients undergoing tLEP. The patients were randomly assigned to two groups: the study group (n=50) received standard postoperative care in combination with Phlogenzym® for 30 days, while the control group (n=55) received standard care (α1-adrenergic blocker for 28 days) only. uring the follow-up period, which lasted for 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively, complaints were evaluated using the IPSS-QoL, and IIEF-5 questionnaires, as well as indicators of urinalysis and urine culture, prostate volume measurements, residual urine volume, and uroﬂowmetry data.Results. Among all patients, the median preoperative values for prostate volume, IPSS, QoL score, and median peak urine ﬂow rate were 90 cc, 18 points, 5 points, and 7.9 mL/s, respectively, with no signiﬁcant diﬀerences between the groups. One month after surgery, in the study group, there was a more signiﬁcant decrease in prostate volume (57% vs. 41%), although this diﬀerence was not statistically signiﬁcant (p > 0.05). At the 6-month follow-up, bacteriuria was less common in the study group (42% vs. 67%), and there was a consistent trend toward a reduction in the incidence of ﬁbrous complications, although these diﬀerences were not statistically signiﬁcant either (p > 0.05). No adverse events occurred during the follow-up period.Conclusion. Our experience suggests that the use of Phlogenzym® is safe during the postoperative period following tLEP surgery. The use of this drug leads to a reduction in prostate volume postoperatively and signiﬁcantly reduces the bacteriuria by the six-month follow-up. Additionally, there is a persistent positive trend towards reducing the overall incidence of ﬁbrotic complications in the surgical site. The results achieved and the absence of signiﬁcant side eﬀects characterize Phlogenzym® as having a favorable clinical proﬁle.

Introduction. Current evidence suggests that management of any grade of varicocele can improve male fertility. However, diagnosis of grade 1 varicocele in infertile men without the use of scrotal Doppler ultrasound may cause overtreatment.Objective. To study the comparability and accuracy of the visual palpatory examination method with the scrotal Doppler ultrasound data for the diagnosis of varicocele.Material & methods. Between November 2005 to January 2022, 2871 patients diagnosed with varicocele and infertility who underwent microsurgical varicocelectomy by inguinal access were examined at RSSPMCU. The average age of the patients was 30.16 ± 0.09 (18 – 60) years. Of the 2871 patients, 2592 (90.3%) were diagnosed by physical examination, and 279 (9.7%) patients underwent additional scrotal Dopper ultrasound.Results. After Doppler scrotal imaging was introduced into practice, the proportion of patients with bilateral varicocele increased from 32.2% to 61.6% (p < 0.01). The proportion of patients with right-sided varicocele also increased signiﬁcantly. Experienced physicians during physical examination of infertility patients did not diagnose grade 1 varicocele in 4.3%.Conclusions. The implementation of scrotal Doppler ultrasound for the diagnosis of male infertility improved the detection of grade 1 varicocele and bilateral varicocele. In turn, this contributed to earlier elimination of the male factor of infertility in this contingent of patients.

Introduction. There is a dearth of literature comparing the three modalities of partial nephrectomy – open, laparoscopic, and robotic – based on two contemporary criteria, “trifecta” and “pentafecta”. This scarcity justiﬁes the signiﬁcance of this study.Objective. To conduct a comparative evaluation of the outcomes of the three methods of partial nephrectomy, assessed against the criteria of “trifecta” and “pentafecta”.Materials & Methods. The prospective study included 600 patients with renal cell cancer from 2018 to 2022. partial nephrectomy was performed using open (200 patients), laparoscopic (200 patients) and robotic (200 patients) techniques. Outcomes were assessed by “trifecta” (negative surgical margin; warm ischemia time ≤ 25 minutes or without ischemia; no ≥ Clavien-Dindo III grade postoperative complications within 3 months after surgery) and “pentafecta” (“trifecta”, ≥ 90% estimated glomerular ﬁltration rate preservation and no chronic kidney disease stage upgrading 12 months after surgery).Results. The “trifecta” outcome was achieved in 82%, 89%, and 84% of cases, respectively, using open, laparoscopic, and robotic approaches. No signiﬁcant diﬀerences in outcomes were found between these methods (p > 0.05), according to this criterion. The “pentafecta” outcome was achieved in 53%, 64%, and 66% of cases using the same three approaches, respectively. Signiﬁcant diﬀerences in outcomes between the open approach and the minimally invasive techniques were observed (p < 0.05) based on this criterion. For tumors that were considered easier to resect (R.E.N.A.L. 4 – 6 score), the highest “pentafecta” rates were observed with laparoscopic and robotic procedures. For tumors with moderate complexity (R.E.N.A.L. 7 – 9 score), open surgery resulted in the poorest outcomes, which were signiﬁcantly diﬀerent from those of robotic partial nephrectomy (p < 0.05). The laparoscopic approach yielded the poorest results for the most complex tumors (R.E.N.A.L. 10 – 12 score).Conclusions. In general, all three methods of partial nephrectomy produce the same outcome according to the “trifecta”, but according to the “pentafecta” better results may be achieved using minimally invasive techniques (laparoscopic and robotic procedures). Robotic partial nephrectomy should be considered as the method of choice for high-scored R.E.N.A.L. and cT1 – cT2 tumours.

Abstract

Background
The relationship between educational outcomes and the use of web-based clinical knowledge support systems in teaching hospitals remains unknown in Japan. A previous study on this topic could have been affected by recall bias because of the use of a self-reported questionnaire.

Objective
We aimed to explore the relationship between the use of the Wolters Kluwer UpToDate clinical knowledge support system in teaching hospitals and residents’ General Medicine In-Training Examination (GM-ITE) scores. In this study, we objectively evaluated the relationship between the total number of UpToDate hospital use logs and the GM-ITE scores.

Methods
This nationwide cross-sectional study included postgraduate year–1 and –2 residents who had taken the examination in the 2020 academic year. Hospital-level information was obtained from published web pages, and UpToDate hospital use logs were provided by Wolters Kluwer. We evaluated the relationship between the total number of UpToDate hospital use logs and residents’ GM-ITE scores. We analyzed 215 teaching hospitals with at least 5 GM-ITE examinees and hospital use logs from 2017 to 2019.

Results
The study population consisted of 3013 residents from 215 teaching hospitals with at least 5 GM-ITE examinees and web-based resource use log data from 2017 to 2019. High-use hospital residents had significantly higher GM-ITE scores than low-use hospital residents (mean 26.9, SD 2.0 vs mean 26.2, SD 2.3; P=.009; Cohen d=0.35, 95% CI 0.08-0.62). The GM-ITE scores were significantly correlated with the total number of hospital use logs (Pearson r=0.28; P<.001). The multilevel analysis revealed a positive association between the total number of logs divided by the number of hospital physicians and the GM-ITE scores (estimated coefficient=0.36, 95% CI 0.14-0.59; P=.001).

Conclusions
The findings suggest that the development of residents’ clinical reasoning abilities through UpToDate is associated with high GM-ITE scores. Thus, higher use of UpToDate may lead physicians and residents in high-use hospitals to increase the implementation of evidence-based medicine, leading to high educational outcomes.

One of the impacts of the rapid development of information and technology (IT) in the archives sector is the presence of an electronic records management system (ERMS). Many ERMS has been developed, but not all of them have been successfully implemented. One important factor in its implementation is user acceptance. User acceptance influences user intentions when using an ERMS application. One of the ERMS is the Naskah Dinas Elektronik (Nadine) application atthe Ministry of Finance, which was implemented five years ago but has not yet been tested for user acceptance. This research was conducted to analyze the factors involved in accepting Nadine's application at the General Bureau as Centre Archives of the Ministry of Finance through the technology acceptance model (TAM). The research method used was quantitativedescriptive, with questionnaires distributed to 72 respondents using the Nadine application at the General Bureau. The data obtained was processed using a non-parametric statistical method, namelypartial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM). The research results show that system quality factors, user training factors, and facility conditions significantly influence user intentions when using the Nadine application. Perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness show a positive correlation with intention to use. Perceived usefulness has a significant direct influence on intention to use, while perceived ease of use has an indirect influence on intention to use through perceived usefulness. The implications of this research provide suggestions for policymakers to improve the quality of implementation of the Nadine application by improving system quality, providing training programs, and providing adequate facilities. This research can also be used to explore factors that influence users' intentions to accept ERMS, especially perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use.

Business information systems, namely electronic-based service applications usually don't automatically provide active archive filing features for electronic records generated from the business information system. Electronic Records are information contained in electronic files and media, which are created, received, or maintained by organizations or individuals and store them as evidence of activities. Like conventional records, electronic records that are created must be filed systematically and logically according to the context of their activities so that they become one file that has information relationships, similar types or similar problems. Student academic administration services at FMIPA IPB produce "born electronic" records. This study aims to design file automation on all electronic records created in the online academic administration service of FMIPA IPB students. The data collection method uses a literature study model, literature and interviews. The design technique of the electronic records filing system uses a waterfall model, while the system testing technique uses the black box technique. The results of the study produced an electronic records filing automation feature in the academic administration service FMIPA IPB so that it can assist organizations in filing electronic records in the academic section and automation of providing the list of active records.

Service quality is very important, because its role is related to the interests of users, both the interests of internal and external users as a whole. This research aims to determine the level of satisfaction and performance assessment of archive services. The data collection method uses a literature study model and questionnaires. Data analysis uses primary data obtained from the results of questionnaire analysis, and secondary data obtained from a literature review. Respondents in this research were education staff, lecturers and students. The level of satisfaction with the quality of archival services at the IPB College of Vocational Studies based on CSI analysis was 81.76%, indicating that in general respondents were very satisfied with the quality of archival services. The results of the suitability analysis show that the relationship between expectations and the quality of archival services shows the highest gap in indicator A3(-0.502), where respondents expect the complete availability of required records, and the lowest gap in indicator Y3 (-0.364), namely staff politeness and the information provided is clearly understood. The conformity level of 90.24% indicates that the quality of archival services is considered good and service performance is in line with expectations. IPB College of Vocational Studies must consider human resource competency and ease of access. Human resourcecompetency, ease of access, is one of the issues that needs to be paid attention to by the IPB College of Vocational Studies. One of the managerial implications is increasing capabilities in the field of archives and recommendations for a comprehensively integrated system for IPB. It is hoped that researchers and stakeholders will accept development ideas and practical contributions in the form of strategic understanding and references.

Published: May 2024

Objective: The goal is to biosynthesize sulphur nanoparticles (Sulphur NPs)from Bacillus coagulans extract and test its bioactivity against S. aureus gram positive bacteri that was isolated from dermatitis patients.
Methods: 125 specimens were taken from patients of dermatitis attended two Baghdad hospitals. Among 125 specimens, only 32 of isolates were identified as S. aureus. Five S. aureus isolates biofilm forming(strong) and multi drug resistant(MDR) were selected. Fourteen types of antibiotics from different classes were used and the results showed different patterns of resistance. Congo red agar (CRA) and microtiter plate method (MPT) were used to estimate the ability of MDR isolates of S. aureus to create biofilms. A series of characterization techniques, including UV–vis, FTIR, FE-SEM, EDS, XRD and TEM analysis, have been carried out to characterize the biosynthesized sulfur NPs. The antimicrobial, antibiofilm and antioxidant activities of sulfur NPs were estimated.
Results: Sulfur NPs biosynthesized exhibited antimicrobial activity against examined bacteria with inhibition zone ranged between 12 to 20, 18 to 23 and 22 to 26mm at 100, 200 and 300µg/ml, respectively. Only five strong-biofilm producers and MDR of S. aureus(A5, A8, A9, A11 and A29) were used to assess the ability of sulfur NPs as anti-biofilm agent. No significant differences (p>0.05) in inhibition rate of all strain isolates (A5, A8, A9, A11 and A29) for all concentrations of Sulfur NPs with p=0.886.
Conclusions: The antioxidant activity of sulfur NPs were decreased into 81.6, 80.3, 75.2 and 68.9% with using concentrations of 400, 300, 200 and 100ug/ml, respectively, also, nanoparticles had the potential to scavenge DPPH free radicals.
