On the problem of combating trafficking in minors: the current state and problems of differentiation
Authors: Мырзабаев Н.К. 
Published: December 2023

Рассматривается проблема недостаточности уголовно-правовых мер противодействия торговле несовершеннолетними в Республике Казахстан. Отмечено, что в Казахстане нет отдельного закона о противодействии торговле людьми, в том числе несовершеннолетними, тогда как международный опыт показывает, что наличие такого закона усиливает борьбу с этим явлением. Слабо выстроена работа по профилактике преступлений данного типа, по предупреждению, выявлению и идентификации пострадавших от торговли людьми, а также по подготовке кадров. На законодательном уровне не прописана система профилактики социального неблагополучия, которое является главной причиной попадания граждан в ситуацию торговли людьми.
The problem of insufficiency of criminal law measures to counteract trafficking in minors in the Republic of Kazakhstan is considered. It was noted that in Kazakhstan there is no separate law on combating trafficking in persons, including minors, while international experience shows that the existence of such a law strengthens the fight against this phenomenon. The work on the prevention of crimes of this type, on the prevention, detection and identification of victims of human trafficking, as well as on the training of personnel, is poorly organized. At the legislative level, there is no system for the prevention of social ill-being, which is the main reason for citizens to get into a situation of human trafficking.
Protest Is Mental Health: Afrocentric healing in a dance movement therapy session
Authors: Holmes Erin Bryce 
Published: December 2023

Abstract: Cultural ideals are repeatedly coded into hidden messages through drums, sampling, and signifying, which is all embodied through various dance styles. This transformation brings new meaning to political, social, historical, and cultural issues. The policing of the black moving body has become an international symbol of struggle, pain, oppression and injustice. How strong is a symbol? To be seen is to be remembered. When will we forget what has been learned? When will we receive what our ancestors have earned? The purpose of this research is to deepen an understanding of the sub- group or ethnic group known as African- Americans in the new world, also known as, the Americas. This paper begins with an introduction to phenomena such as present day stereotypes, social constructs and mandates on what is considered by Brenda Dixon Gottschild to be the "black dancing body" in America. The discussion to follow deals with how policing the black dancing and moving body occurs throughout various interlinked systems in America. The black female and male forms are constantly violated by lack of access to education, diagnosis of illness and reinforced stereotypes of aggression. An embodied exploration of the Pan- African dance technique known as Umfundalai (pronounced ma-foon-da-la) provides a deeper understanding of protest within the arts. This writer will show therapeutic values inherent in the stylized movement vocabulary of people of the African Diaspora and the utilization of their culture as a viable resource for healing in an acute care psychiatric hospital.

BACKGROUND
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disorder impacting multiple organs, influenced by genetic factors, especially those related to the immune system. However, there is a need for new biomarkers in SLE. MicroRNA-125a (miR-125a) levels are decreased in T cells, B cells, and dendritic cells of SLE patients. MiR-125a plays a regulatory role in controlling the levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin 12 (IL-12), which are crucial pro-inflammatory cytokines in SLE pathogenesis.
AIM
To assess the levels of miR-125a, IL-12, and TNF-α in SLE patients’ plasma, evaluating their diagnostic and prognostic value.
METHODS
The study included 100 healthy individuals, 50 newly diagnosed (ND), and 50 SLE patients undergoing treatment. The patients were monitored for a duration of 24 wk to observe and record instances of relapses. MiR-125a expression was measured using real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, while ELISA kits were used to assess IL-12 and TNF-α production.
RESULTS
The results showed significantly reduced miR-125a expression in SLE patients compared to healthy individuals, with the lowest levels in ND patients. TNF-α and IL-12 expression levels were significantly elevated in SLE patients, especially in the early stages of the disease. Receiver operating characteristic curve analyses, and Cox-Mantel Log-rank tests indicated miR-125a, TNF-α, and IL-12 as proper diagnostic biomarkers for SLE. A negative correlation was found between plasma miR-125a expression and IL-12/TNF-α levels in SLE patients.
CONCLUSION
Decreased miR-125a levels may be involved in the development of SLE, while elevated levels of IL-12 and TNF-α contribute to immune dysregulation. These findings offer new diagnostic and prognostic markers for SLE. Moreover, the negative correlation observed suggests an interaction between miR-125a, TNF-α, and IL-12. Further research is necessary to uncover the underlying mechanisms that govern these relationships.

BACKGROUND
The survival of microorganisms on textiles and specifically on healthcare professionals’ (HCP) attire has been demonstrated in several studies. The ability of microorganisms to adhere and remain on textiles for up to hours or days raises questions as to their possible role in transmission from textile to skin via HCP to patients.
AIM
To evaluate the presence, survival and transmission of different multidrug-resistant bacteria (MDRB) from HCP attire onto skin.
METHODS
Three MDRB [methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA); vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE); carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae , CRKP)] were inoculated on textiles from scrubs (60% cotton-40% polyester) and white coat (100% cotton) at concentrations of 108 colony-forming units (CFU), 105 CFU, and 103 CFU per mL. The inoculation of swatches was divided in time intervals of 1 min, 5 min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h, 5 h, and 6 h. At the end of each period, textiles were imprinted onto pig skins and each skin square was inverted onto three different selective chromogenic media. Growth from the pig skin squares was recorded for the 3 MDRB at the three above concentrations, for the whole length of the 6-h experiment.
RESULTS
MRSA was recovered from pig skins at all concentrations for the whole duration of the 6-h study. VRE was recovered from the concentration of 108 CFU/mL for 6 h and from 105 CFU/mL for up to 3 h, while showing no growth at 103 CFU/mL. CRKP was recovered from 108 CFU/mL for 6 h, up to 30 min from 105 CFU/mL and for 1 min from the concentration of 103 CFU/mL.
CONCLUSION
Evidence from the current study shows that MRSA can persist on textiles and transmit to skin for 6 h even at low concentrations. The fact that all MDRB can be sustained and transferred to skin even at lower concentrations, supports that textiles are implicated as vectors of bacterial spread.
Meteorological factors, ambient air pollution, and daily hospital admissions for depressive disorder in Harbin: A time-series study
Authors: Hu Ting , Xu Zhao-Yuan , Wang Jian , Su Yao , Guo Bing-Bing 
Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND
The literature has discussed the relationship between environmental factors and depressive disorders; however, the results are inconsistent in different studies and regions, as are the interaction effects between environmental factors. We hypothesized that meteorological factors and ambient air pollution individually affect and interact to affect depressive disorder morbidity.
AIM
To investigate the effects of meteorological factors and air pollution on depressive disorders, including their lagged effects and interactions.
METHODS
The samples were obtained from a class 3 hospital in Harbin, China. Daily hospital admission data for depressive disorders from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2022 were obtained. Meteorological and air pollution data were also collected during the same period. Generalized additive models with quasi-Poisson regression were used for time-series modeling to measure the non-linear and delayed effects of environmental factors. We further incorporated each pair of environmental factors into a bivariate response surface model to examine the interaction effects on hospital admissions for depressive disorders.
RESULTS
Data for 2922 d were included in the study, with no missing values. The total number of depressive admissions was 83905. Medium to high correlations existed between environmental factors. Air temperature (AT) and wind speed (WS) significantly affected the number of admissions for depression. An extremely low temperature (-29.0 ℃) at lag 0 caused a 53% [relative risk (RR)= 1.53, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.23-1.89] increase in daily hospital admissions relative to the median temperature. Extremely low WSs (0.4 m/s) at lag 7 increased the number of admissions by 58% (RR = 1.58, 95%CI: 1.07-2.31). In contrast, atmospheric pressure and relative humidity had smaller effects. Among the six air pollutants considered in the time-series model, nitrogen dioxide (NO2) was the only pollutant that showed significant effects over non-cumulative, cumulative, immediate, and lagged conditions. The cumulative effect of NO2 at lag 7 was 0.47% (RR = 1.0047, 95%CI: 1.0024-1.0071). Interaction effects were found between AT and the five air pollutants, atmospheric temperature and the four air pollutants, WS and sulfur dioxide.
CONCLUSION
Meteorological factors and the air pollutant NO2 affect daily hospital admissions for depressive disorders, and interactions exist between meteorological factors and ambient air pollution.
Analysis of influencing factors and the construction of predictive models for postpartum depression in older pregnant women
Authors: Chen Lei , Shi Yun 
Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND
Changes in China's fertility policy have led to a significant increase in older pregnant women. At present, there is a lack of analysis of influencing factors and research on predictive models for postpartum depression (PPD) in older pregnant women.
AIM
To analysis the influencing factors and the construction of predictive models for PPD in older pregnant women.
METHODS
By adopting a cross-sectional survey research design, 239 older pregnant women (≥ 35 years old) who underwent obstetric examinations and gave birth at Suzhou Ninth People's Hospital from February 2022 to July 2023 were selected as the research subjects. When postpartum women of advanced maternal age came to the hospital for follow-up 42 d after birth, the Edinburgh PPD Scale (EPDS) was used to assess the presence of PPD symptoms. The women were divided into a PPD group and a no-PPD group. Two sets of data were collected for analysis, and a prediction model was constructed. The performance of the predictive model was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis and the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test.
RESULTS
On the 42nd day after delivery, 51 of 239 older pregnant women were evaluated with the EPDS scale and found to have depressive symptoms. The incidence rate was 21.34% (51/239). There were statistically significant differences between the PPD group and the no-PPD group in terms of education level (P = 0.004), family relationships (P = 0.001), pregnancy complications (P = 0.019), and mother–infant separation after birth (P = 0.002). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that a high school education and below, poor family relationships, pregnancy complications, and the separation of the mother and baby after birth were influencing factors for PPD in older pregnant women (P < 0.05). Based on the influencing factors, the following model equation was developed: Logit (P ) = 0.729 × education level + 0.942 × family relationship + 1.137 × pregnancy complications + 1.285 × separation of the mother and infant after birth -6.671. The area under the ROC curve of this prediction model was 0.873 (95%CI: 0.821-0.924), the sensitivity was 0.871, and the specificity was 0.815. The deviation between the value predicted by the model and the actual value through the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test was not statistically significant (χ 2 = 2.749, P = 0.638), indicating that the model did not show an overfitting phenomenon.
CONCLUSION
The risk of PPD among older pregnant women is influenced by educational level, family relationships, pregnancy complications, and the separation of the mother and baby after birth. A prediction model based on these factors can effectively predict the risk of PPD in older pregnant women.
Influence of physical education on anxiety, depression, and self-esteem among college students
Authors: Fu Hai-Yan , Wang Jing , Hu Jia-Xi 
Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND
Physical education is pivotal in our country’s education reform. Urban schools have notably enhanced the intensity of physical education in recent years. However, the effects of physical education on students' anxiety, depression, and self-esteem levels, as well as their interrelations, remain unexplored.
AIM
To analyze the influence of physical education on students’ anxiety, depression, and self-esteem.
METHODS
This study employed a cross-sectional design. A stratified cluster sampling method was used to select 478 first-year university students. Self-administered questionnaires were used to investigate the physical education status and basic information of college students. We used the Physical Activity Rank Scale-3 (PARS-3), Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS), and Self-Esteem Scale (SES) to assess the level of exercise, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem. Multiple Logistic regression was used to analyze the factors influencing anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. The receiver operating characteristic curve and area under the curve (AUC) were used to evaluate the predictive ability of PARS-3 scores for anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. Spearman’s correlation was used to analyze the correlations among the PARS-3, SAS, SDS, and SES.
RESULTS
Compared with the domestic norms, SAS and SDS scores were higher, and SES scores were lower (P < 0.05). Among the participants, 210 (43.93%) had PARS-3 scores below 20, 94 (19.67%) had scores of 20-42, and 174 (36.40%) had scores above 42. After adjusting for daily sleep time, gender, being an only child, major, father’s educational background, mother’s educational background, and family residence, PARS-3 scores were independent influencing factors for anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem (P < 0.05). The AUC of PARS-3 scores predicting anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem were 0.805 (0.760-0.849), 0.799 (0.755-0.843), and 0.831 (0.788-0.874), respectively. The sensitivities were 0.799, 0.801, and 0.748, and the specificities were 0.743, 0.716, and 0.814, respectively. PARS-3 was negatively correlated with SAS and SDS scores (r = -0.566, -0.621, both P < 0.001) and positively correlated with SES scores (r = -0.621, P < 0.001). SES scores were negatively correlated with SAS and SDS scores (r = -0.508, r = -0.518, both P < 0.001).
CONCLUSION
The amount of physical activity is negatively correlated with anxiety and depression degree and positively correlated with self-esteem degree.

Authors: Rodríguez-Triviño Claudia-Yaneth , Molina-Peña María Erika , Zamora Adrián Mauricio , Sánchez-Sánchez Camila del Mar 
Published: December 2023

Introduction: Diaphragmatic surface electromyography is a procedure designed to assess the diaphragm. The physiological values of the electrical activity may have potential use in rehabilitation, sports training, ventilatory support withdrawal in critical care units and follow-up of respiratory disease.
Objective: To assess and describe the diaphragmatic function through surface electromyography in a population of individuals during spontaneous and forced breathing.
Methods: Observational, exploratory cross-sectional study including subjects with no comorbidities. Diaphragmatic surface EMG was performed measuring the mean quadratic root during tidal volume and vital capacity breathing. The body composition of the participants was also assessed.
Results: 28 males and 22 females were included in the study. The mean quadratic root of the tidal volume for two minutes was 13.94 µV for females and 13.31 µV for males. The vital capacity was 23.24 µV for males and 22.4 µV for females. A correlation was identified between the mean quadratic root, weight, and body surface.
Conclusion: Mean quadratic root values of tidal volume in two minutes in healthy females and males have been documented. The mean quadratic root values are correlated with the physiological and functional characteristics of the participants.

Published: December 2023

Introduction: Transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block provides somatic analgesia postoperatively in cesarean sections, however erector spinae plane (ESP) block has shown to provide both somatic and visceral analgesia.
Objective: To compare the efficacy of TAP and ESP blocks for pain control after cesarean section under spinal anesthesia.
Methods: In a double-blind superiority trial, pregnant patients undergoing cesarean section were randomized into either bilateral TAP or ESP block groups. Primary outcome was total consumption of patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) tramadol in the first 24 hours. Secondary outcomes included time required for first rescue analgesia, post-surgery visual analog score (VAS) for pain, patient satisfaction, and adverse effects.
Results: 50 pregnant patients were randomized into TAP and ESP blocks. There was no difference in the amount of PCA tramadol within the first 24 hours between both groups [100mg (63,125) in TAP group vs 75mg (38,100) ESP group]. Pain score at rest and on movement and patient satisfaction were comparable in both groups, with no difference in adverse effects. There was a slight difference in the median time for first rescue analgesia [210min (135,315) in TAP group and 270min (225,405) ESP group] (p=0.03).
Conclusion: TAP and ESP blocks provide similar analgesia with comparable consumption of tramadol in the first 24 hours post-cesarean section and no difference in pain scores at rest/on movement.
Management of postoperative pain in the elderly. Literature review
Authors: Vargas-Silva Juan Felipe , Guzmán-Martínez Santiago , Fernández-Cardona Alejandra , Arbeláez-Escobar María Alexandra , Uribe-López Sara , Echavarría-Barboza Andrea Catalina 
Published: December 2023

Timely post-operative pain management in elderly patients is critically important. Given their physiological changes and comorbidities, management in this group of patients is different from the rest of the population. Knowledge of potentially inappropriate medications (Beers criteria) is relevant because of the presence of comorbidities in this population. Although acetaminophen continues to be safe, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents produce several adverse effects which need to be considered before they are used. On the other hand, opioids continue to be one of the pillars in analgesia, with due consideration of their adverse affects and interactions, and the need for dose adjustments. Adequate postoperative pain management prevents adverse effects and the risk of developing chronic pain.

Published: December 2023

The Choosing Wisely initiative has become a significant benchmark as a strategy to reduce low value tests and therapies. An original initiative of the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) which has been growing gradually and is now present in over 18 countries, with the support of more than 80 scientific societies around the world.
In Colombia, the strategy is being accepted by the Colombian Association of Scientific Societies (ACSC), which with the support of six pioneer Colombian scientific societies, have encouraged the development and implementation of “do not do recommendations”, with a view to fulfil the right to self-regulation of human resources in healthcare, reducing those medical behaviors that could be ineffective or harmful to the patient.
This article is an overview of the most significant items of the initiative which has been conducted by the ACSC, with the support of the Colombian Society of Anesthesiology and Resuscitation (S.C.A.R.E.) as a pioneer.
