Osteoarthritis is a prevailing form of Arthritis, also known as Degenerative Joint Disease, which occurs due to the gradual deterioration of joints, including the articular cartilage and subchondral bone. Common symptoms of osteoarthritis include joint pain, stiffness, and reduced range of motion, leading to a loss of flexibility in the affected joints. In modern medical science, NSAIDs are commonly prescribed to manage the symptoms of Osteoarthritis which help in reducing pain, inflammation, and stiffness. NSAIDs only provide symptomatic relief to the patients. Indeed, Sandhigatavata and Osteoarthritis are closely correlated terms, with Sandhigatavata being the Ayurvedic term for Osteoarthritis. Ayurvedic texts suggest various treatments for this condition, with the most common ones being repeated application of Snehana and Swedana, along with Basti and Mriduvirechana. Among these treatments, Basti is considered a crucial part of the overall therapy, and the Matra Basti, a specific form of Basti, is relatively easier to administer without any complications. Here an attempt was made through Matra Basti with Kshira Bala Taila and Ketakadya Taila mentioned in Vata Vyadhi Chikitsa specifically. This is an open-label, observational, and clinical research study, a total of 30 patients diagnosed with Sandhigata Vata were randomly selected from the OPD and IPD of Parul Ayurved Hospital and Khemdas Ayurved Hospital in Waghodia, Vadodara. These patients were divided into two groups i.e., in Group A, 15 patients were given Abhyanga, Baspa Swedana followed by Matra Basti with Kshira Bala Taila, and in Group B, 15 patients were given Abhyanga, Baspa Swedana followed by Matra Basti with Ketakadya Taila for 15 days. The assessment of patients was carried out before treatment, on the 8th day, after treatment, and on the 30th day of treatment. Statistically significant effects were seen in both the groups in symptoms including Sandhi Shoola, Akunchan Prasaranajanya Vedana, Sparsha Asahatva, Sandhi Sphootana, and ROM.

Este artigo analisa algumas mudanças provocadas pela fotografia digital no comportamento humano, com foco nas postagens da rede social Instagram. Abordam-se também questões da memória e do esquecimento (Halbwachs, 2006; Pollak, 1992), em meio à produção exacerbada de registros imagéticos digitais e como se dá a interação das memórias individual e coletiva nesses meios de sociabilidade, ou seja, nas redes sociais mediadas por imagens. Apontam-se também os aspectos cotidianos do seu uso, seu funcionamento como ferramenta de memória e o comportamento dos diferentes grupos geracionais frente a essa dinâmica. Através de pesquisa descritiva, exploratória e quali/quantitativa, com entrevistados de diferentes faixas etárias da cidade do Rio de Janeiro, conclui-se que a geração Y (Millenials) mantem um relacionamento de maior proximidade com o Instagram e tem um comportamento mais voltado à construção desse espaço, numa dimensão memorialística, como um museu de si mesmo.
Deformational and metasomatic transformations of detrital gold in the course of placer formation
Authors: Khertek Chayana , Sazonov Anatoly 
Published: January 2024

The richest gold placers periodically mined since 1838 are known in the north of the Republic of Tyva, within the basin of the Amyl and Sistig-Khem rivers. Ag-Au gold is the most common, and cuprous and mercuric varieties are presented in small quantities. Lode gold occurrences are confined to quartz veins and have no economic value. Detrital gold in the placer deposits has the typical typomorphic features of placer gold: roundness, compositional heterogeneity, the presence of rims and intergranular veinlets of high-fineness gold, and particle deformation structures. We have considered the transformation mechanisms of detrital gold within the mentioned placers due to the deforming interaction of transported particles in the sedimentogenic environment at the stage of motogenesis, as well as crystallophysical effects at the stage of syngenesis – early diagenesis during heterogeneous metasomatic recrystallization of endogenous gold under conditions of differential mobility of the main mineral-forming elements of gold, Au, Ag,
Cu, and Hg. As a result, compositionally polyphase structures formed in the particle, they are high-fineness rims along the periphery of the particles, intergranular veins of high-fineness gold, deformation structures, and increased fineness in the particle kernels.

Transformaciones espaciotemporales de la vida cotidiana durante la pandemia por COVID-19 y su resonancia emocional
Authors: Kuri Pineda Edith 
Published: January 2024

La pandemia por COVID-19 constituyó un hito para la salud pública a escala global y un conjunto de modificaciones de las relaciones, prácticas, experiencias emocionales y sensoriales. El objetivo de este artículo es analizar desde la sociología de las emociones y de la sensorialidad cómo la pandemia detonada por el virus SARS-CoV-2 reconfiguró la vida cotidiana, rutinas edificadas espaciotemporalmente, espacios de interacción social y emocional —como el laboral, el educativo, familiar y el de recreación— y desdibujó las fronteras entre lo público y lo privado, cambios que provocaron miedo, desconfianza, ansiedad e inseguridad. Para tal fin, fueron realizadas dieciséis entrevistas a profundidad con hombres y mujeres de diferentes edades y profesiones con el objetivo de recoger las modificaciones en la vida cotidiana y su reverberación emocional y sensorial —en específico la aural—. Además, fueron aplicadas en línea ciento noventa y cuatro encuestas con el propósito de identificar las emociones que con mayor frecuencia fueron experimentadas. Como se expondrá, la cotidianidad constituye una dimensión ineludible en la estructuración, reproducción y reconfiguración del mundo social, lo cual no exenta la innovación y creatividad de dicho plano articulado por el vínculo irrompible entre tiempo y espacio.

A ação da água, que segue os caminhos da conjuntura morfoestrutural, responde pela maioria dos processos de elaboração do relevo. Nesse contexto, o objetivo principal da pesquisa foi a análise dos indicadores de influência da tectônica local/regional no contexto geomorfológico da bacia hidrográfica do Córrego Ibó. A pesquisa teve suporte teórico e, para a organização de mapas, utilizou-se informações do Topodata – radar SRTM e dos satélites Alos (2006 a 2011), além de dados geológicos, geomorfológicos e hidrográficos disponibilizados pela Seplan e CPRM. Os resultados comprovam a influência das falhas e fraturas no desenvolvimento do relevo local. Assim, devido à condição de “instabilidade” das superfícies em questão, é importante a proposição e realização de debates amplos e criteriosos referentes à utilização do relevo e dos rios deste sistema de drenagem.

Published: January 2024

As Coordenadorias de Proteção e Defesa Civil (PDC) do Brasil constituem-se na principal instância de atuação pública frente à ocorrência de eventos extremos nos municípios, bem como às ações de prevenção, mitigação e preparação ao risco de desastres. Este estudo foi desenvolvido a partir de informações coletadas no curso de capacitação das coordenadorias de PDC do estado do Paraná em 2017. Em situações de risco, são os coordenadores municipais os primeiros agentes a estabelecerem contato com a população e encaminharem as medidas necessárias ao atendimento das ocorrências. Dentre os cenários encontrados, pode-se verificar a baixa participação, elevada evasão e desistência dos inscritos no curso, comprometendo a qualificação e efetividade das ações. Por isto, é importante que os gestores locais se comprometam com a redução dos riscos de desastres, participando dos treinamentos a fim de subsidiar as ações da PDC e auxiliar seus municípios a se tornarem mais resilientes.

Published: January 2024

Insulin resistance is a condition in which persons with type 2 diabetes make insulin but is unable to use it properly to transfer glucose into cells, resulting in high blood glucose levels. Obesity, particularly visceral fat (fat surrounding the organs) is a major cause of insulin resistance. The homeostasis model evaluation is the gold standard method for determining whether or not a person is insulin resistant. This article tries to investigate the development of the values of some parameters among type 2- diabetic patients versus normal levels of healthy control groups these parameters included FBS, HbAIc (%), FIL, HOMAIR age BMI and lipid profile. The results found that the means values of FBS(mg/dl), HbAIc (%), FIL (miu /L), HOMAIR were (175.96± 39.68, 9.74±1.82 , 18.99±5.98 , 8.136±2.53) respectively versus normal levels of control group (85.44±7.58, 4.92±.500 , 5.79 ± 0.5, 1.22±0.17). While means of age and BMI (kg/m²) of cases were (54.27±13.35, 32.20±2.23) versus the mean for the control group (47.12±10.77, 26.04±1.65) respectively. The levels of total cholesterol (mg/dl), triglycerides (mg/dl), LDL (mg/dl) and VLDL (mg/dl) among type-2 diabetic patients were(238.19±8.27, 183.48±7.66, 117.20±8.59, 36.69±4.28) respectively versus normal concentrations among control groups with mean values (146.03±7.48, 137.54±7.43, 87.55±6.92, 23.6±5.58) respectively, While the mean value of HDL-C was (40.34±9.82) in patients and (52.31± 4.94) in control. In all these parameters there were highly significant differences between case and control (with (p-value= >0.001) and the mean values of patients with type 2 DM were more than control except the values of HDL-C were in patients less than in control. This study found that the results of the tests FBS, HbAIc (%), age BMI and lipid profile in patients with diabetes type 2 in comparison to the control group have a significant correlation with FIL, HOMAIR.

Authors: Majapahit Sali Alas 
Published: January 2024

Digital Village Development has become an important agenda in efforts to modernize and improve the quality of life in rural areas. This transformation relies on the use of information and communication technology (ICT) to increase convenience and efficiency in various fields.
The success of developing a Digital Village depends on the readiness of ICT infrastructure. The village office, which is the center for administration and services to the community, must have adequate ICT infrastructure as the main requirement for activating various digital initiatives.
The research was conducted to determine the current state of readiness of Cimenyan village, Bandung Regency in implementing ICT in village government offices. The readiness level analysis is prepared based on the COBIT framework in 3 domains, namely: IT process domain PO1 (defining IT strategic plans), PO2 (determining information architecture), and PO4 (defining IT processes, IT organization, and their relationships)
The results of the analysis will be mapped based on the maturity level of each domain in COBIT. The level of maturity obtained will help the Cimenyan Village government to make appropriate preparations for implementing ICT so that the goal of Cimenyan Village becoming a digital village in West Java can be achieved.

Published: January 2024

Cyberbullying is a serious problem that can have a significant negative impact on victims, including depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and even suicidal thoughts. The absence of cybercrime laws can make it difficult to prosecute cyberbullying cases, which can contribute to the problem. The purpose of this study was to understand the influence of the absence of a cybercrime law on cyberbullying in higher institutions of learning. The study focused on the International University of Management (IUM) in Namibia. The study used mixed methods research design. Data was collected through an online questionnaire comprising both quantitative and qualitative questions. The link to the questionnaire was shared with students, as well as academic and administrative staff at IUM. The study found that the absence of a cybercrime law contributes to the problem of cyberbullying in IUM. The study also found that that there are a number of factors that contribute to cyberbullying in IUM, such as the use of social media, the anonymity that the internet provides, and the lack of awareness of cyberbullying among students and staff. The findings of the study have implications for policymakers, educators, and parents. Policymakers need to enact cybercrime laws to help prevent and prosecute cyberbullying cases. Educators need to educate students about cyberbullying and how to deal with it. Parents need to talk to their children about cyberbullying and monitor their online activity.

Published: January 2024

BACKGROUND: Hypertension is the leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease mortality worldwide. It affects approximately 74.7 million people in Sub-Saharan Africa, and this figure is expected to increase to 125.5 million by 2025. Although antihypertensive drugs have been used to decrease blood pressure; traditional herbal remedies have been utilized within local or regional practices, in up to 80% of African populations. The current study was carried out to assess adherence to medications and perception of Hypertensive patients regarding use of herbal treatment.
METHODS: This was a descriptive cross-sectional facility centers-based study at 3 PHC centers. A total of 100 hypertensive patients were enrolled using multi-stage sampling. The data was collected by modified open and closed ended interview questionaries. Modified Morisky score system was used to assess adherence to medical treatment.
RESULTS: The study population was 100 participants of which (57%) were females. Most of the participants (77%) were in the age group of 51 and above, (49%) had secondary and higher levels of education, (66%) were using Single type of drug and (77%) were in regular clinical checkup, (90%) were taking their medications as prescribed by their physicians, (58%) were diagnosed before ten years or more, (43%) had Diabetes as co-morbid. Fifty one percent of the participants had low adherence to medication. Forty nine percent of participants used herbal remedies with 67.3% of them had low adherence to their medications; Hibiscus was the most used herb (31%). There was significant association between lack of adherence and the medication unavailability (p =.009). There was significant association between lack of adherence and taking more than one medication (p = 0.001);and between lack of adherence and lack of confidence in medical treatment (p = 0.012).
CONCLUSION: A significant proportion of hypertensive patients are using herbal remedies which is negatively affects their adherence to the prescribed medications.

Published: January 2024

BACKGROUND: Vulvar malignant melanoma is a rare, often aggressive and recurring disease with a poorly understood prognosis. Here, we describe a patient with a longstanding vaginal cyst who was diagnosed with vulvar malignant melanoma upon a dermatologic evaluation.
THE CASE: Our patient, a 53-year-old female, with a family history of a father with malignant melanoma presented for evaluation of a vaginal cyst present for over 20 years on her right labia that had become painful and began draining over the past year. She was seen twice at urgent care and was treated with oral antibiotics (unspecified) and referred to dermatology. A comprehensive dermatologic evaluation of the epidermal inclusion cyst in the right labia majora incidentally revealed a neoplasm of uncertain behavior in the right labia minora suspected for vulvar malignant melanoma (Figure 1). Shave biopsy of her right labia minora revealed a Stage 1B malignant melanoma, superficial spreading type, with a 1.1 mm depth of invasion (Breslow thickness) and 11 per 1mm2 mitotic count. Right partial radical vulvectomy and bilateral inguinal sentinel lymph node biopsies were performed. Pathology showed malignant melanoma with negative margins and negative nodes. Treatment and excision for her vaginal cyst was not initiated as her symptoms were not bothersome at the time of visit. She presented with a post-operative infection after 2 weeks which was suggestive of bilateral inguinal vulval acute cellulitis with no definitive abscess upon computed tomography (CT) scan. She was initially treated with vancomycin with additional piperacillin/tazobactam for a total of three days. Trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole was later initiated for 14 days. Medical oncology referral for evaluation of metastasis revealed normal positron emission tomography-computed tomography scan. Notably, the patient had extensive confluent/atypical lentiginous basal melanocytic hyperplasia at the periphery which could not be distinguished from melanoma in situ. Upon tumor board consultation, scouting biopsies of her left labia majora were performed. Pathology showed melanocytic hyperplasia instead of residual malignant melanoma at the periphery. The patient now follows up every few months with dermatology and medical oncology.
CONCLUSION: Given the often fast, aggressive spread of vulvar malignant melanoma, timely dermatologic evaluations are necessary. Among those at higher risk due to a personal or family history of malignant melanoma, regular total body skin cancer screenings are indicated. Further, the sensitive and typically sun-protected location of a vulvar malignant melanoma might preclude a dermatologic evaluation in this area and highlights the need for more comprehensive vaginal screenings and better communication between dermatologic and gynecologic medical care teams.
