Abstract
Comets, as remnants of the solar system’s formation, vary in volatile-refractory content. In situ comet studies, such as the Rosetta mission to 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko, provide detailed volatile composition insights, while ground-based studies offer broader comet samples but in fewer species. Comparing 67P’s volatile correlations during the 2 yr Rosetta mission with those from remote sensing gives insights into volatile distribution in the nucleus and factors influencing their release. Our goal is to identify associations between volatiles seen from the ground and those in 67P. Given 67P’s seasonal variations, we segmented the Rosetta mission around 67P into six epochs, reflecting different insolation conditions. It has been suggested that there are at least two different ice matrices, H2O and CO2 ice, in which the minor species are embedded in different relative abundances within them. We employed various methodologies to establish associations among volatiles, such as volatile production rates, spatial distributions, patterns in mixing ratio, and local outgassing source locations. We note that different techniques of grouping molecules with respect to H2O and CO2 may yield different results. Earth’s atmosphere blocks CO2; however, due to observed differences between H2O and C2H6 from the ground and between H2O and CO2 from comet missions, C2H6 is suggested to be a CO2 proxy. Our study delves into cometary coma molecular correlations, highlighting their associations with H2O and CO2 matrices and advancing our understanding of the early solar system comet formation and evolution.

Perceptions de l’odeur des pigments noirs, de l’empyreume au VANTAblack
Authors: Wicky Érika , David Olivier 
Published: March 2024

Les propriétés sensorielles des pigments noirs (textures, capacité à sécher, etc.), et plus particulièrement leurs caractéristiques olfactives, ont joué un rôle important dans la caractérisation des matériaux (identification, usage, évaluation), mais aussi, en tant que métaphore privilégiée pour évoquer l’ancienne peinture ou l’activité de journaliste, dans leur histoire culturelle. Elles font ainsi partie non seulement de l’expérience de la pratique artistique, mais aussi des conceptions et des représentations associées à l’usage de la peinture et de l’encre noires. Ce panorama des enjeux liés à l’odeur de la peinture noire du xviiie siècle à nos jours met en évidence la permanence de certaines conceptions concernant la mauvaise odeur et la toxicité de ces pigments ainsi que l’existence d’un imaginaire olfactif des pigments noirs.
Disseminated Tuberculosis: A 6-year Case Series Experience in a Tertiary Care Center
Authors: Açar Cem , Babalık Aylin 
Published: March 2024

AbstractBackground:Disseminated tuberculosis (dTB) disease is associated with a significant burden of morbidity and mortality and it requires improved awareness among clinicians. Case reports revealing the clinical and microbiological characteristics of dTB patients will help us to extend our knowledge of dTB. In our study, we have documented dTB cases followed for 6 years and revealed patients’ clinical characteristics.Methods:Patients followed between 2017 and 2023 who were diagnosed with dTB in a tertiary referral hospital in Istanbul have been evaluated. Data regarding patients’ characteristics, methods used in establishing the definitive diagnosis, radiological patterns in chest X-rays, extrapulmonary sites involved, antituberculosis (TB) treatment regimens received, medication side effects, and drug resistance have been examined. Descriptive statistics were performed.Results:Clinical characteristics of 55 patients with a median age of 41 (range 20–85, 52.7% male) were examined. The most common extrapulmonary involvements in our study were the skeletal system (n= 24), central nervous system (n= 7), and genitourinary tract (n= 7). Isoniazid (INH) resistance was detected in four patients. Mono resistance was reported for pyrazinamide in one patient. Multidrug resistance was detected in two patients and one of them was also resistant to ethambutol. Preextensively, drug resistance was reported in three patients. Another three patients were evaluated as resistant to both INH and streptomycin.Conclusion:Migrating from a high TB burden country and comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus, human immunodeficiency virus, and rheumatoid arthritis that are related to immunocompromisation are thought to be risk factors for dTB.
Spinal Tuberculosis: An Exhaustive Diagnosis
Authors: Acharya Abhijit , Panda Kirtika , Panigrahi Souvagya , Senapati Satya Bhusan , Mahapatra Ashok Kumar , Sahu Kundan 
Published: March 2024

AbstractBackground:The most common organ affected due to tuberculosis (TB) is the lungs. Extrapulmonary TB is less common. Musculoskeletal organs are affected in around 8% of all tubercular patients, of which the spine is affected in almost half of the patients. The criteria for diagnosing spinal TB are quite difficult and we use an array of investigations for the same.Methods:A retrospective study was carried out in the Neurosurgery and Microbiology Department at IMS and SUM Hospital between January 2021 and November 2023, and data were collected and tabulated in an Excel sheet. One hundred patients with spinal TB were evaluated, and their age, sex, samples sent, diagnostic investigation, duration of diagnosis from hospital admission, histopathology results, and surgical intervention (done or not) were recorded.Results:The best investigation done to diagnose spinal TB was imaging and surgical/computed tomography (CT)-guided biopsy. The earliest result to diagnose spinal TB was histopathology. The yield of positivity in pus culture, smear microscopy, and true nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) was found to be low even though sensitivity was on the higher side.Conclusion:Even though we have an array of investigations for diagnosing spinal TB, the best and the earliest diagnosing test was imaging plus CT-guided biopsy. The confirmation is made in the biopsy. Finding acid-fast bacteria (AFB) and NAAT tests are additional beneficial tests to supplement the diagnosis. Hence, we can conclude that sending for tests like AFB in pus, NAAT, and GeneXpert is a wastage of biological samples and delays in diagnosis.

Published: March 2024

Abstract
Lucio phenomenon (LP) is a variant of type two leprosy, characterized by necrotizing erythema, frequently found in neglected leprosy patient who experience delayed diagnosis or inappropriate treatment. Indonesia is in the third place for highest leprosy cases worldwide. Nonetheless, LP is less common, regardless being an endemic country. In this serial case, we describe the three cases of LP in lepromatous leprosy patients in Denpasar, Bali. All three cases came to our hospital with chronic wounds complained up to a year, accompanied by swollen leg, blisters, tingling sensation, and other symptoms. They had received no suitable treatment, proving LP as a neglected case in primary health care. After a period of treatment, however, patient lesions improved clinically with no physical disability. With this case series, a better understanding toward LP initial complains together with its natural history and further examination could be achieved; thus, improving the early diagnosis and management of LP.

Abstract

Background:
The convergence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) and tuberculosis (TB) may lead to increased mortality and complications, so the underlying mechanism is under investigation. Therefore, a bibliometric analysis was performed to describe the bibliometric indicators of publications evaluating the relationship between TB and DM2.

Methods:
A descriptive and observational bibliometric study was conducted using the Scopus database to identify documents published from 2016–2023, for which free and controlled terms (Medical subject headings and Emtree) were used. The variables collected comprised the number of published documents, institutions, countries, authors, journals, and type of collaboration, which were exported to Excel 2016 and analyzed with SciVal.

Results:
A total of 456 documents, 1624 authors, and 2173 citations were identified, with Medicine and Immunology-Microbiology being the subcategories with the highest and lowest number of documents (367 and 80 documents), respectively, with a strong decreasing trend correlation (R
2: 0.95; P < 0.5) between the number and year of publication. While the country with the highest production was China (71 papers), the country with the highest citation was the United States (952 citations). In terms of authors, the highest production was by the American Venketaraman, and the highest impact was by the Asian Kimberly To. The institution with the highest number of papers was the Western University of Health Sciences, while Stellenbosch had the highest impact.

Conclusion:
Although the scientific productivity of DM2 and TB have reported growth rates of 158.75% and 7.3%, respectively, our results found a decreasing trend in publications associating these two diseases. The thematic evolution of the concepts in both diseases suggests that the relationship between them is not yet known, so future studies evaluating the underlying mechanisms of this comorbidity are suggested.

Published: March 2024

AbstractBackground:The study aimed to report all cases of oral tuberculosis (TB), a rare manifestation of the fatal infectious disease primarily affecting the pulmonary system. The report also evaluated the clinicopathological characteristics of oral TB lesions.Methods:A total of 25 patients who presented with oral lesions between August 2013 and August 2023 were diagnosed with TB through surgical biopsy despite having no prior history of the disease. Their clinical symptoms, auxiliary examinations, treatments, and outcomes were recorded and analyzed for further study.Results:In a study of 25 patients with oral TB, all patients were found to have the disease, with 16 males and 9 females affected. The gender distribution was skewed toward males, with a 1.77 male-to-female ratio. Twelve cases of the affected sites were reported in the mandible, six cases in the buccal mucosa, four in the lips, two in the gingiva, and one in the tongue. The age range of affected patients was 0–70 years old, and all lesions were indicative of primary TB. The appearance of the affected mucosa varied, with ulceration and swelling being the most common manifestations.Conclusion:Patients who present with oral ulcerations and swellings should be evaluated for the possibility of TB. To confirm and differentiate this condition from other diseases, obtaining a biopsy specimen for histological analysis and performing acid-fast stains and cultures is recommended. These tests will enable a precise diagnosis and guide appropriate treatment.

Authors: Shah Rishabh , Venkatesh Rashmi , Badi Kavita , Shah Kreena 
Published: March 2024

ABSTRACT
Hemangiomas are benign soft tissue tumors which are congenital and occur due to abnormal proliferations of blood vessels. Most common location of hemangiomas is subcutaneous adipose tissue, but skeletal muscle hemangiomas are very rare which make up to 0.8% of all hemangiomas. Usually, the intramuscular lesions are common in thigh region and calf muscles and are relatively rare in the facial muscles. Long-standing lesions results in phleboliths, and this may cause some symptoms. Conventional treatment of these isolated lesions may not yield satisfactory results. Hence, surgical excision of the lesion in toto results in aesthetically pleasing results with low chances of recurrence. In this article, we report a case of a left masseter intramuscular hemangioma in 19-year-old patient which was successfully managed by complete surgical excision.

Abstract

Introduction:
Family resilience is strongly influenced by religious coping and spiritual/religious well-being (RW). In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia, this study intends to investigate the relationship between religious coping, spiritual well-being, and family resilience.

Methods:
A cross-sectional survey (n = 242) was conducted from December 2021 to January 2022 in Indonesia. The Spiritual Coping Strategies Scale-Chinese version, Spiritual Well-Being Scale, and Family Resilience Assessment Scale were used for data collection. Smart Partial Least Square (SmartPLS) software (version 3.2.7) was used to analyze the data.

Results:
Most respondents aged range from 46 to 55 years-old (30.9%). Also, most of them were having senior high school educational level (47.7%), earn <3 million rupiah (90.5%), and jobless (66.7%). Family resilience to COVID-19 has been influenced by the relationship between RW and existential well-being (EW) (81.2%) (β =0.901, t = 24,836, P = 0.001). Religious Non-coping (RNC)- Religious well-being(RW) is 0.124, which indicating that RNC affecting RW by 12.4%, and it also impacting on family resilience to COVID-19 (β = −0.310, t = 3.275, P = 0.001, f
2 = 0.085; minor).

Conclusion:
Religious coping, RW, and EW are all important factors influencing family resilience during the COVID-19 pandemic. Currently, the COVID-19 pandemic has ended. However, with the dynamic development of world health, an outbreak may occur in the future, so the findings of this research will be helpful in providing a warning about spiritual factors that significantly influence family resilience.

Published: March 2024

Abstract

Introduction:
The use of young electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) is increasing worldwide, including in Thailand, where there are strict regulations governing the availability of e-cigarettes. This study explored e-cigarette use among vocational students and associated factors in Thailand.

Methods:
We enrolled 1150 students from six vocational institutions in the upper northern region of Thailand using a multistage design and gathered the data through a self-administered questionnaire. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to examine the variables and their association with e-cigarette use.

Results:
Most of the participants (66.5%) were male, and the average age was 17 ± 1.7 years. The prevalence of e-cigarette use in the past 30 days was 18.4%. We found that the perceived price of e-cigarettes being affordable (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 1.7, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.0–2.8), traditional cigarette smoking in the past year (AOR = 3.5, 95% CI: 2.4–5.1), a high positive attitude toward e-cigarettes (AOR = 2.6, 95% CI: 1.7–3.9), alcohol consumption in the past year (AOR = 1.8, 95% CI: 1.1–2.8), having close friends who used e-cigarettes (AOR = 4.4, 95% CI: 3.1–6.3), and having low self-esteem (AOR = 1.6, 95% CI: 1.1–2.3) were significantly associated with e-cigarette use in the past 30 days.

Conclusion:
The use of e-cigarettes is prevalent among Thai vocational students, suggesting that continued maintenance of the enforcement policy on banning the importation of e-cigarettes into the country is thus needed. Furthermore, the government should improve law enforcement, especially against online marketing, and strengthen school-based anti-smoking programs.
Incidence of deep venous thrombosis in patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus disease 2019 and elevated plasma levels of the D-dimer
Authors: Attia Khaled M. , Ibrahim Mosaad M. , Abonar Abdelraouf A. 
Published: March 2024

Background
There is an increased risk of developing venous thromboembolism in patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus disease (SARS COVID-19). As the D-dimer could be elevated in deep venous thrombosis (DVT), we aimed to investigate the incidence of DVT in patients with SARS COVID-19 and elevated plasma levels of the D-dimer.

Patients and methods
A prospective observational study was carried out to screen all patients with a confirmed diagnosis of SARS COVID-19 with plasma D-dimer levels above 1000 ng/ml for the presence of DVT without related symptoms using complete compression Doppler ultrasound.

Results
A total of 52 patients were included in the study. Among them, 34 (67.3%) were males. All patients received standardized thromboprophylaxis treatment. The screening results of complete compression Doppler ultrasound revealed DVT in eight (15.4%) patients. Among these patients, the DVT was proximal in one (1.9%) patient and bilateral distal in two (3.8%) patients. The D-dimer level was significantly higher in patients with DVT than in patients without DVT (4531 vs. 2048 ng/ml, odds ratio 9.4, 95% confidence interval 1.2–70.3). The diagnostic ability of the D-dimer was satisfactory, with an receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.71 (95% confidence interval 0.62–0.83).

Conclusion
The incidence of DVT without symptoms in patients with SARS COVID-19 and elevated plasma level of D-dimer was 15.4%, with a significant difference between patients with and without DVT in terms of the D-dimer. Therefore, the D-dimer is important for the diagnosis of DVT in patients with SARS COVID-19.

Published: March 2024

BackgroundTobacco smoking is known for its deleterious effects on the systems of the whole body. However, the effects on the eye are not fully understood, especially the effects on the retina and choroid.AimThe current study aimed to evaluate the effects of smoking on choroidal and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thicknesses.Patients and methodsThe current work included 50 patients, categorized into G1 (25 healthy individuals as a control group) and G2 (25 smokers, who practiced continuous smoking for >2 years). All participants were assessed by history taking, followed by ocular examination of both eyes. The unaided and best-corrected visual acuity and intraocular pressure were determined. The slit-lamp biomicroscopic examination was performed to detect any abnormalities or media opacity of the anterior segment of the eye. It was followed by the fundus examination and optical coherence tomography to determine choroidal thickness (CT) and RNFL thickness.ResultsNo significant differences were reported between smokers and nonsmokers regarding patient age, hemoglobin concentrations, visual acuity, or intraocular pressure. The smoking duration ranged between 3 and 30 years, and the number of daily cigarettes ranged between 5 and 30 cigarettes/day. The choroidal thickness and RNFL thickness were significantly reduced among smokers compared with nonsmokers. Finally, there was a significant, inverse correlation between CT and the smoking duration and daily smoking.ConclusionThere was a significant reduction in CT and RNFL thicknesses owing to smoking. This reduction could be associated with reduced blood flow to the choroid following smoking.
