Abstract
Background
Acute gastroenteritis (AGE) in children represents a health problem. Besides common enteric viruses such as rotavirus and adenovirus, new viruses such as cosavirus, salivirus, and bufavirus may be associated with AGE. The objective of the study was to detect cosavirus, salivirus, and bufavirus viruses in children below 5 years with acute gastroenteritis by the use of real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) besides detection of rotavirus and adenovirus by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

Method
The study included 150 children ≤ 5 years with community-acquired diarrhea. Stool samples from children were subjected for the detection of rotavirus and adenovirus antigens by ELISA and for detection of buvavirus, salivirus, and cosavirus by real-time PCR.

Results
The commonest virus detected in the stool samples of children with AGE was rotavirus 31.3% followed by adenovirus 24%. Among the new viruses studied, salivirus was detected in six samples (4.0%), buvavirus was detected in four samples (2.7%), and cosavirus was detected in two samples (1.3%). The mixed rotavirus detection with studied viruses was 23.4% for adenovirus, 4.3% for calicivirus, and 2.1% for bocavirus, and none of the detected cosavirus was associated with rotavirus. In the studied children, at least one of the new viruses was detected in ten children (6.7%). Buvavirus, salivirus, and cosavirus were detected as a single virus (0.7%) in the children with acute gastroenteritis and buvavirus was detected with cosavirus without other viruses in one sample (0.7%).

Conclusion
The study reports the occurrence of buvavirus, cosavirus, and salivirus in the pediatric patients with community-acquired acute gastroenteritis. There was a high prevalence of rotavirus and adenovirus antigens in those patients with low positivity for buvavirus, cosavirus, and salivirus viruses. There is a need for a large cohort study to study the prevalence of buvavirus, cosavirus, and salivirus in pediatrics with acute gastroenteritis and to validate their association with the disease.

Published: October 2023

AbstractOver recent decades, heritage conservation has developed in concept and scope. This paper uses a systematic literature review approach to collect charters and documents on heritage conservation issued by UNESCO and ICOMOS, divided into two periods, before 2000 and from 2000 to the present, for analysis from a qualitative perspective. The study results show that the scope of architectural heritage is expanding, and the definition of conservation is changing from individual to holistic conservation and from holistic to sustainable conservation. The focus of conservation has evolved from tangible to intangible attributes. The changing scale of conservation, from object to landscape, incorporates a more comprehensive range of heritage values, and the status of conservation has changed from static to living conservation. This study systematically structures the development of the concept of architectural heritage conservation, providing insight in the international field of architectural heritage conservation and encouraging reflection on the conservation of architectural heritage in historic cities.

Published: October 2023

Abstract

Background
Neonatal truncal valve plasty remains a significant challenge. Several surgical techniques have been reported, but there is no standard procedure. We herein report a novel operative technique for the quadricuspid truncal valve with axisymmetric morphology.

Case presentation
A 17-day-old neonate with severe truncal valve insufficiency developed persistent congestive heart failure and underwent urgent truncal valve plasty. The truncal valve was quadricuspid with four equal sinuses, and all four cusps were hypoplastic, resulting in a complete lack of coaptation. We performed bicuspidization valvuloplasty with leaflet reconstruction using autologous pericardium for this valve. The patient had an uneventful recovery and was free from recurrent truncal valve insufficiency for 10 months.

Conclusions
Bicuspidization with leaflet reconstruction is a suitable surgical option for overcoming neonatal truncal valve insufficiency in cases with quadricuspid truncal valves with axisymmetric morphologies. Although the durability of a bicuspid neo-leaflet using glutaraldehyde-treated autologous pericardium is unknown, this technique is expected to postpone subsequent truncal valve replacement in such neonates.

Published: October 2023

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:
Computer-aided surgical simulation (CASS) can be used to virtually plan ideal outcomes of craniosynostosis surgery. Our purpose was to create a workflow analyzing the accuracy of surgical outcomes relative to virtually planned fronto-orbital advancement (FOA).

METHODS:
Patients who underwent FOA using CASS between October 1, 2017, and February 28, 2022, at our center and had postoperative computed tomography within 6 months of surgery were included. Virtual 3-dimensional (3D) models were created and coregistered using each patient's preoperative and postoperative computed tomography data. Three points on each bony segment were used to define the object in 3D space. Each planned bony segment was manipulated to match the actual postoperative outcome. The change in position of the 3D object was measured in translational (X, Y, Z) and rotational (roll, pitch, yaw) aspects to represent differences between planned and actual postoperative positions. The difference in the translational position of several bony landmarks was also recorded. Wilcoxon signed-rank tests were performed to measure significance of these differences from the ideal value of 0, which would indicate no difference between preoperative plan and postoperative outcome.

RESULTS:
Data for 63 bony segments were analyzed from 8 patients who met the inclusion criteria. Median differences between planned and actual outcomes of the segment groups ranged from −0.3 to −1.3 mm in the X plane; 1.4 to 5.6 mm in the Y plane; 0.9 to 2.7 mm in the Z plane; −1.2° to −4.5° in pitch; −0.1° to 1.0° in roll; and −2.8° to 1.0° in yaw. No significant difference from 0 was found in 21 of 24 segment region/side combinations. Translational differences of bony landmarks ranged from −2.7 to 3.6 mm.

CONCLUSION:
A high degree of accuracy was observed relative to the CASS plan. Virtual analysis of surgical accuracy in FOA using CASS was feasible.

Published: October 2023

Introduction The primary aim of the study is to evaluate the morphological form of the maxillary first premolar using 2D geomorphometry and evaluate the sexually dimorphic characteristics. Methods The present study was carried out on standardized photographs of right Maxillary first premolar from 55 dental casts (33 male and 22 females). Nineteen landmarks (based on geometric and anatomic evidence) were marked on the tooth using TPSdig software and analysed using Morpho J applying procrustes analysis and discriminant function analysis Results The results showed similar centroid sizes between gender (p = 0.606). Procrustes ANOVA for shape analysis showed a greater dimorphism between sexs (f value of 1.4 ; p value=0.0624). Discriminant function analysis based on the procrustes coordinates showed an overall accuracy of 90.91 % in classifying sex based on the landmark coordinates with correct classification of 20/22 (90.99%) females and 30/33 (90.91) males. Conclusion Shape of the tooth can be measured objectively using geometric morphometric methods which can be utilized to identify the sex of an individual. Enamel covering the crown of the teeth is biologically stable resisting climatic, physical and chemical insults. The enamel is derived from ectoderm and once formed does not change during the life. The tooth's structure and shape are determined by the sex chromosomes, which is well represented as sexual dimorphism. The study evaluates the occlusal and contact area morphology of premolars. These are important parameters considered during restorative treatment, functional rehabilitation and forensic investigations.

Published: October 2023

Background: Oral health education of school teachers will surely have a direct influence on evolving oral habits at an inchoate stage and assuredly help to garner oral health knowledge in children. The aim of this study was to assess the knowledge of school teachers about pediatric oral health and the assessment of the impact of a webinar training intervention in improving their knowledge. Methods: A total of 153 teachers participated in the research. A self‑administered, 30‑item questionnaire was designed in the English language and consisted of two sections: the first section included demographic details; the second section included 30 questions on pediatric oral health with three divided subsections as follows: Subsection A (including 7 questions): Questionnaire on general pediatric oral health, Subsection B (including 9 questions): Questionnaire on preventive pediatric oral health, Subsection C (including 14 questions): Questionnaire on clinical pediatric oral health. After receiving Google forms, all the participants participated in an oral health education webinar program using a web-based online education training protocol on the Zoom platform. After this webinar training session, post-training assessment of the oral health knowledge scores was done using the same online semi‑structured self‑administered questionnaire. Results: The inadequacy in knowledge of school teachers was evident and they need to be trained in many preventive and clinical protocols of pediatric oral health. However, a highly statistically significant increase (P < 0.001) in mean knowledge scores of school teachers was seen after a 1‑day training program. Conclusion: The training method was well received and improved the knowledge of school teachers on pediatric oral health.

Published: October 2023

Background: Diabetic patients are always in contact with medical sharps, such as pen needles, lancets, and syringes. Sometimes, patients improperly dispose of these items and cause needle stick injuries. This study aimed to identify factors that improve appropriate manner in which individuals with diabetes who require insulin therapy dispose of medical sharps. Methods: In December 2019, a cross-sectional investigation was undertaken amongst insulin therapy-dependent diabetic patients visiting Jakarta's Fatmawati General Hospital. A questionnaire was formulated to appraise medical sharps' disposal methodology. The data gathered from the said patients, including their age, gender, educational level, employment status, length of time as a diabetic, duration of insulin treatment, and receipt of formal medical training, were also recorded. Results: Of 103 diabetic patients, 77.3% were over 50 years old, 58.3% were female, 68% were a low level of education, 74.8% were not working, 84.5% were diagnosed with diabetes for more than 5 years, 53.4% were using insulin therapy, and only 65% had got formal training on medical sharp products disposal. Nearby 83.5% still recap the pen needle insulin with the inner needle cap after injecting insulin, and 92.2% still threw medical sharps on the street when traveling outside. Approximately 81.6% of respondents stored their unused needles and lancets in a secured manner that was inaccessible to children. The practice score for proper medical sharps disposal increased from 4.5 to 6.0 as a result of formal training provided by healthcare professionals, as determined by the Mann Whitney Test (p=0.001). Conclusions: Formal training by healthcare workers was the only factor that improved medical sharp products disposal practice among diabetic patients using insulin therapy

Published: October 2023

Background: The reliable and usable (semi)automation of data extraction can support the field of systematic review by reducing the workload required to gather information about the conduct and results of the included studies. This living systematic review examines published approaches for data extraction from reports of clinical studies. Methods: We systematically and continually search PubMed, ACL Anthology, arXiv, OpenAlex via EPPI-Reviewer, and the dblp computer science bibliography. Full text screening and data extraction are conducted within an open-source living systematic review application created for the purpose of this review. This living review update includes publications up to December 2022 and OpenAlex content up to March 2023. Results: 76 publications are included in this review. Of these, 64 (84%) of the publications addressed extraction of data from abstracts, while 19 (25%) used full texts. A total of 71 (93%) publications developed classifiers for randomised controlled trials. Over 30 entities were extracted, with PICOs (population, intervention, comparator, outcome) being the most frequently extracted. Data are available from 25 (33%), and code from 30 (39%) publications. Six (8%) implemented publicly available tools Conclusions: This living systematic review presents an overview of (semi)automated data-extraction literature of interest to different types of literature review. We identified a broad evidence base of publications describing data extraction for interventional reviews and a small number of publications extracting epidemiological or diagnostic accuracy data. Between review updates, trends for sharing data and code increased strongly: in the base-review, data and code were available for 13 and 19% respectively, these numbers increased to 78 and 87% within the 23 new publications. Compared with the base-review, we observed another research trend, away from straightforward data extraction and towards additionally extracting relations between entities or automatic text summarisation. With this living review we aim to review the literature continually.

Objective
To describe the surgical techniques of Caesarean delivery (CD) practiced by Ethiopian Obstetricians and Gynecologists.

Methods
A descriptive survey study was conducted in Ethiopia from March 1, 2021 to April 30, 2021. Members of the Ethiopian Society of Obstetrician and Gynecologists were randomly selected and their Cesarean delivery surgical techniques were explored. Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS statistics 22. Simple descriptive analysis were employed and frequencies and percentage were calculated to present the data.

Results
A total of 258 obstetricians and Gynecologists practicing in Ethiopia were approached with a response rate of 97.3% (251/258). Double layer closure of uterine incision (98.4%) and subcuticular closure of skin wound (96.4%) are practiced by most of the participants. There was a large difference in practice of blunt versus sharp fascia extension (43.3 vs 55.8%), cephalo-caudad versus lateral uterine incision extension (58 vs.39%), and closure versus non-closure of pelvic and parietal peritoneum (57.4 vs 42.6, and 39.8 versus 60.2%).

Conclusions
Blunt and sharp fascia extension, cephalo-caudad and lateral uterine incision extension, closure and non-closure of the pelvic and parietal peritoneum are practiced by similar numbers of Ethiopian Obstetricians and Gynecologists. This demonstrates a wide variation exists in the techniques of Cesarean Delivery across Ethiopia.

Authors: Harjanto Taufan Ratri , Bahri Saipul 
Published: October 2023

Emisi antropogenik telah menghasilkan deposisi karbon dioksida (CO2) yang terus mengalami peningkatan setiap tahun. Saat ini, Gas CO2 di biosfer berada dalam konsentrasi yang relatif tinggi jika dibandingkan dengan kondisi beberapa dekade sebelumnya. Kajian mengenai emisi karbon yang dihasilkan oleh industri merupakan kajian yang layak untuk dilakukan dengan berbagai pertimbangan, baik melalui peraturan pemerintah maupun kondisi aktivitas industri yang menyebabkan terjadinya peningkatan polutan karbon (CO2) dari tahun ke tahun seiring dengan perkembangan industri di tanah air yang membutuhkan tindakan pengendalian yang dilakukan secara aktif dan dinamis. Usaha untuk mengurangi sumber pencemaran CO2 dapat dilakukan dengan menghentikan kenaikan konsentrasi CO2 yang berpengaruh secara langsung terhadap penurunan konsentrasi CO2 di udara. Masalah yang difokuskan pada penelitian ini yakni identifikasi metode ramah lingkungan untuk mereduksi emisi CO2. Metode tersebut dapat menjadi solusi alternatif untuk menyerap dan menyimpan cemaran emisi CO2 dengan mengkonversinya menjadi senyawa lain. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membuat rancangan bioreaktor untuk pengendalian emisi CO2 berbasis pada kemampuan tanaman dalam menyerap emisi CO2. Penelitian ini dibagi menjadi tiga tahapan yakni tahapan persiapan atau identifikasi awal, tahapan desain dan perakitan bioreaktor, tahapan terakhir berupa interpretasi hasil dan simpulan. Desain bioreaktor memiliki dimensi 1m x 1,5m yang dilengkapi dengan sensor gas, suhu dan kelembaban. Keberhasilan bioreaktor diidentifikasi dengan laju penyerapan CO2 oleh bahan isian (rumput teki (Cyperus Rotundus L), rumput paragis/rumput belulang (Eleusine Indica L) dan meniran (Phyllanthus Urinaria)). Bahan isian yang efektif adalah rumput teki dan rumput paragis. Konstanta laju penyerapan CO2 rata-rata pada rumput teki, = 0,101281/jam. Konstanta laju penyerapan CO2 rata-rata pada rumput paragis = 0,105704/jam.

Published: October 2023

Kromium heksavalen memiliki tingkat toksisitas yang lebih tinggi daripada Cr(III). Penanganan tanah yang tercamer krom dapat dilakukan melalui bioremediasi dengan memanfaatkan proses metabolism mikroorganisme. Dalam pemanfaatan mikroorganisme untuk bioremediasi lingkungan tercemar Cr(VI), diperlukan bahan pembawa sebagai habitat sementara. Vermikompos dapat digunakan sebagai bahan pembawa karena mengandung nutrisi yang tinggi. Beberapa penelitian bioremediasi dengan kombinasi beberapa isolate terbukti meningkatkan kemampuan dalam mereduksi polutan. Microbacterium sp. Stain SpR3 diketahui mampu mereduksi krom, namun isolat RT-9 merupakan rhizobakteri yang berlum diketahui kemampuannya dalam mereduksi krom. Kemampuan dan viablitias kultur isolat RT-9 dan kultur campuran dengan SpR3 pada vermikompos belum diteliti. Tujuan dari penelitian ini yaitu untuk menganalisis kemampuan Microbacterium sp. Strain SpR3 dan RT-9 dalam kultur tunggal atai campuran dalam vermikompos sebagai bahan pembawa untuk mereduksi Cr(VI) dalam tanah. Dalam penelitian ini, uji viabilitas dianalisis dengan metode Total Plate Count dan reduksi Cr(VI) secara spektrofotometri. Isolat SpR3 dan RT-9 mampu tumbuh dalam kultur tunggal dan campuran. Hasil penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa kultur murni RT-9 dan kultur campur Microbacterium sp. SpR3 mampu menggunakan vermikompos sebagai bahan pembawa dan laju reduksi Cr(VI) pada hari ke-7 dan 14 berturut-turut adalah 0,177 ppm.hr-1 and 0,240 ppm.hr-1
