Authors: Farooq Sana , Hussain Syed Amjad , Rizvi Nida , Rizvi Syed Hasan Abbas 
Published: February 2024

Purpose: Globally, the mortality rate of respiratory distress has been quite high due to unability to maintain oxygenation and overcome abnormal work of breathing. Chest Physical therapy, apart from providing advantageous outcomes to the adults, chest physical therapy is pivotal for newborns too but differs in terms of physiology and anatomy. Various chest physiotherapy techniques including percussions, vibrations, and compressions are quite effective in reducing mortality rate in neonates.Many studies has been conducted worldwidely, but still there has been limited data in Pakistan about the effect of bronchopulmonary clearance in neonatal intensive care unit, so this study was conducted to find the effectiveness of chest physiotherapy in neonatal intensive care unit
Materials and Methods: This was the non-randomized controlled trial study conducted in tertiary care hospital of karachi , Pakistan. Total 40 samples collected through convenient based sampling were included in this study . The inclusion criteria including gestational age more than 37 weeks with atelactasis, mucous plugging, airway compromised, intubated or extubated, hospital admission, and chest complications where as exclusion criteria included cardiopulmonary instability, post surgery, pre term, intra ventricular hemmorage, fits or epilepsy, failure to thrive, and on consistent feed. Bronchopulmonary Clearance techniques such as Percussions , Compressions, and Vibrations along with suctioning and postural drainage were performed routinely twice daily session one in morning and one in evening was performed for total 14 days which means total 28 sessions of chest physiotherapy was implemented and chest xray, sp02, Heart rate, and respiratory rate was measured pre and post the sessions.
Findings: The mean age of the participants were 37.050±5.57, out of which 20(52.5%) were females and 19(47.5%) were males. Result showed that post chest xray after chest physiotherapy was .2500±.49355 and post session spo2 was 2. .075 ± 4.56513. The chest physiotherapy was statistically significant in mucociliary clearance, lung expansion, preventing atelectasis, airway clearance, and other chest complications (0.008).
Implications to Theory, Practice and Policy: Limitations of this study were that small sample size was taken, and data was collected from one tertiary care hospital of Karachi so it doesn’t showed generalization. Further studies in terms of large sample size are required for validity and reliability of this research.

Published: February 2024

This study aimed to investigate the dairy farming practices and management in Sabarkantha district. A total of 90 livestock owners were randomly selected from six villages representing the Himatnagar, Idar, and Prantij talukas, encompassing three farm size categories based on the number of milch animals: Category A (<10 Milch animals), Category B (10-20 Milch animals), and Category C (>20 Milch animals). The herd composition analysis revealed that cattle were the primary milch animals in the studied farms, with an average total herd strength of approximately 20 cattle and 5 buffaloes. The respondents' personal characteristics indicated a relatively good level of education, with 32% having attained a graduate level of education. The majority of farmers fell into the 50-65 years age group, and most had more than 10 years of experience in dairy farming. Analysis of milking and healthcare practices revealed that a significant number of farmers employed the knuckling method of milking, which is not recommended. Dry cow therapy and milking parlour usage were less prevalent, but proper drying periods and vaccination and deworming practices were generally followed. Housing practices indicated that most farmers used pacca (concrete) floors and provided adequate light and ventilation. Single-line housing was the most popular system, and drainage facilities were generally adequate. However, milking hygiene practices were found to be suboptimal, with limited use of teat dips or antiseptic udder washing. Overall, the study highlights the need for improvement in milking hygiene practices, along with targeted interventions to enhance dairy management in Sabarkantha district.

Authors: Samake M , Al Et. 
Published: February 2024

Introduction : La prise en charge de l’insuffisance rénale aiguë au cours du paludisme grave demeure un véritable défi dans un contexte caractérisé par la rareté des ressources financières et la pauvreté du plateau technique. La présente étude avait pour objectifs de déterminer les aspects diagnostiques, thérapeutiques et évolutifs de l’insuffisance rénale sur ce terrain. Matériels et méthodes : il s’agissait d’une étude prospective et descriptive menée au service de pédiatrie et à l’unité de néphrologie de l’hôpital de Kayes du 1er juillet au 30 Novembre 2022. Etaient inclus, les enfants ayant une altération de la fonction rénale, goutte épaisse et/ou Test de Diagnostic Rapide (TDR) positifs. Résultats : Nous avons colligé 11 patients dont 6 garçons et 5 filles avec un sex- ratio de 1.2. L’âge médian était de 9.09 ans avec des extrêmes de 7 et 14 ans. Chez tous les patients, le recours au néphrologue était motivé par l’élévation de la créatininémie avec une valeur moyenne de 917.09 ± 424.54 µmol/l. Les signes cliniques comprenaient surtout les vomissements avec 11 cas (100%), la pâleur conjonctivo-palmaire 11 cas (100%), dyspnée 8 cas (72.7%). Le taux d’hémoglobine moyen était de 7.45 g/dl. La densité parasitaire variait de 171 à 1441 trophozoïtes/µl chez 7 patients. L’arthémeter était associé à l’hémodialyse temporaire chez 8 (72.7%) patients. L’évolution a été favorable chez 9 (81.82%). Nous avons enregistré 2 cas de décès dans un contexte de syndrome hémorragique. Conclusion : L’insuffisance rénale aiguë au cours du paludisme grave revêt plusieurs tableaux cliniques de gravités variables
Facteurs associés au partage du statut sérologique VIH positif dans la ville de Ouagadougou
Authors: Diallo I , Al Et. 
Published: February 2024

Objectif : En Afrique, comme au Burkina Faso, aborder le sujet de la sexualité reste toujours tabou même au sein du couple surtout en cas d’infection par le VIH. Notre étude avait pour but d’étudier les facteurs associés au partage du statut sérologique VIH positif dans trois structures de santé à Ouagadougou.
Patients et méthodes : Etude transversale à visée descriptive et analytique sur une période de trois mois, du 1er avril au 30 juin 2019. Les données recueillies ont été saisies puis, analysées et traitées à l’aide du logiciel Epi Info.
Résultats : L’âge moyen des patients était de 43,3 ans ± 10 ans [16 - 85 ans], le sex-ratio (H/F) de 0,2. A l’annonce de leur sérologie, 321 patients (77 %) avaient au moins un partenaire sexuel. Soixante-cinq patients (20,2 %) affirmaient n’avoir jamais partagé leur statut sérologique avec leur partenaire. Les facteurs associés au non-partage de la sérologie étaient : la connaissance du statut du partenaire (p=0,000), la situation matrimoniale (p=0,000) et l’impression d’un sentiment d’abandon après partage (p=0,004).
Conclusion : Sensibiliser pour un meilleur partage de l’information en cas de séropositivité d’un ou des partenaires, dépister et traiter tout patient infecté par le VIH permettraient sans doute la rupture de la chaine de transmission. Par ailleurs, une étude à plus grand échelle contribuerait à identifier d’autres facteurs associés au partage du statut sérologique

Published: February 2024

O artigo apresenta uma sequência didática realizada com estudantes do ensino médio em uma instituição privada situada em Manaus, Amazonas. O objetivo foi realizar o levantamento florístico das espécies existentes no jardim escolar, gerando subsídios para o ensino de botânica, em especial os conteúdos de classificação biológica, taxonomia e sistemática. Para isso, foi estruturada uma sequência didática dividida em 5 etapas em aulas de 50 a 100 minutos, tais como conceitos de diversidade biológica, oficina de nomenclatura científica, visitas ao jardim da escola, levantamento e identificação das espécies e análise dos dados. A elaboração da sequência didática possibilitou que os estudantes compreendessem as distinções entre as nomenclaturas popular e científica, por meio de métodos ativos para identificar as espécies presentes no jardim escolar. A análise do conhecimento prévio dos alunos revelou uma deficiência na compreensão dos conceitos de botânica e nomenclatura científica. Isso indica a necessidade de uma metodologia de ensino mais integrada e relevante para a realidade dos estudantes, promovendo uma conexão entre os conceitos biológicos e o meio ambiente. Tal abordagem tende a ser mais efetiva e motivadora, melhorando a compreensão dos alunos sobre as características dos diferentes grupos de organismos de forma integrada e lógica, evitando a memorização desconectada de conceitos e características.

LEGISLATION CONCEPT OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE TOWARDS A CHILD IN THE ACTS AND THE QANUN JINAYAT
Authors: Kuncoro Wahyu , Husni  , Effendi  , Gaussyah M 
Published: February 2024

Background: The investigation of cases of sexual violence against children under Article 133 of Act Number 11 of 2006 is entrusted to the investigation of Wilyatul Hisbah. As a result, there is dualism in the investigation and inquiry process for sexual harassment cases, as both the Police Investigations and the Wilyatul Hisbah Investigation have the authority to conduct investigations. This is due to the provisions stated in Article 133 of Act Number 11 of 2006 and Article 1 (1) of the Indonesian Criminal Code, which allow for the involvement of two institutions in investigating criminal cases in Aceh, including sexual violence such as rape. The provision indicates a situation where the authority of the two institutions overlaps.

Objective: To examine and analyze the legal framework surrounding sexual assault, with a specific focus on addressing the issue of dual investigative power in cases involving child sexual abuse in Aceh.

Theoretical framework: The regulation of sexual violence against children is governed at the national level by Act Number 35 of 2014; however, in Aceh, it is regulated specifically under Article 47 of the Qanun Jinayat. The Child Protection Act provides a more comprehensive framework for addressing sexual violence, encompassing measures such as imposing penalties and eliminating sentences for educators and residents. The investigation process for cases of sexual violence in Aceh involves two authorized agencies: the police detective and the Hisbah Wilyatul investigator. This dualistic approach allows for a comprehensive inquiry and ensures that all aspects of the case are thoroughly examined. The existence of dualism arises from the provisions outlined in Article 133 of the Government of Aceh Act, which grants each entity the power to independently investigate allegations of sexual violence. To eliminate the duality of authority, it is necessary to achieve harmonization of the legal regulations, specifically the Acts of the Government of Aceh, the Police, and the Jinayat.

Method: This study employs a normative jurisprudential research methodology, specifically utilizing the legislative-regulatory approach.
VILLAGE DEVELOPMENT PARADIGMS AND THEIR IMPLEMENTATION IN POST-REFORMATION INDONESIA
Authors: Sutopo Dhanny S. , Musta'in Maryunani 
Published: February 2024

Objective: The paradigm of village development in Indonesia, which has been put into practice since the reformation era in 1998, has generated three laws that underlie village governance systems: Law No. 22 in 1999, Law No. 32 in 2004, and Law No. 6 in 2014.

Method: This descriptive-qualitative study explores the conceptual understanding of village development in Indonesia using secondary data from laws, regulations, and research. Kuhn's thinking is used to interpret the paradigm underlying the development system, spanning from the reformation era to the present.

Results: This study reviews the paradigm from the perspective of Thomas Kuhn, who sees the truth from a scientific perspective in the context of Indonesian governance. The findings show that Law No. 22 of 1999 and Law No. 32 of 2004 are built upon political and governmental sciences, highlighting a paradigm shift from centralization to decentralization. Village management and regulatory systems then lie between central and regional governments, which influences its development. Furthermore, Law No. 6 of 2014 positions villages in an exclusive regulatory system with changing sociocultural and economic dimensions but retains pre-existing political and governmental dimensions. In other words, village regulatory systems are not based on radical paradigms.

Conclusion: The existing paradigm cannot be abandoned, and new ideas about villages need to be developed. To truly demonstrate autonomy, laws must be released from the previous paradigm and establish a new scientific basis.
ChatGPT: A Pilot Study on a Promising Tool for Mental Health Support in Psychiatric Inpatient Care
Authors: Melo Antonio , Silva Inês , Lopes Joana 
Published: February 2024

Introduction This pilot study assesses ChatGPT’s effectiveness as an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot in psychiatric inpatient care. Global mental health challenges highlight a significant treatment gap, mainly due to restricted service access and mental health professional shortages. AI chatbots like ChatGPT offer innovative solutions, providing services such as self-help advice, coaching, psychoeducation, and emotional support. Methods This study involved a group of patients receiving psychiatric inpatient care. The intervention group engaged in 3-6 ChatGPT sessions under guided prompts, while the control group received standard care. The primary outcome was based on World Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire – Brief Version (WHOQOL-BREF) scores, and the secondary outcome assessed patient satisfaction with ChatGPT. Results Twelve patients were included in this study, with a mean age of 27 (standard deviation of 8.57). The intervention group (7 patients) showed notable improvements in WHOQOL-BREF scores compared to the control group (5 groups), and high satisfaction levels with ChatGPT sessions were reported. Discussion These findings suggest that AI chatbots like ChatGPT can enhance patient-reported quality of life in a psychiatric setting, with high user satisfaction. However, limitations include a small sample size and the exclusion of patients with psychosis. Future studies should focus on larger, diverse patient groups for broader validation. These results support the potential of AI chatbots in mental health care, which can provide more accessible and varied treatment options. This study lays the groundwork for further exploration into the role of AI in enhancing psychiatric treatment, advocating for larger-scale investigations to establish more conclusive evidence of their effectiveness and applicability in diverse mental health scenarios.

Atualmente a Odontologia contemporânea está buscando a harmonização estética tanto na área de boca, sorriso e dentes como na face, visando melhorar a auto-estima e a auto-imagem dos pacientes. O nariz é um componente muito relevante na estética facial, pois faz parte de um dos 4 segmentos do rosto humano. Cada um deles tem papel importante num padrão de beleza proporcional. Este estudo tem como objetivo apresentar um relato de caso clínico que utiliza o ácido hialurônico de alta reticulação (PerfecthaSubskin®) para preencher e modelar o complexo nasal com a finalidade de aperfeiçoamento estético. Uma paciente do sexo feminino, com 22 anos de idade foi atendida em Clínica Odontológica de Especialização em Harmonização facial do Instituto Educacional das Américas com queixas de que seu nariz tinha características infantis e isso a incomodava profundamente. Durante a consulta, a paciente foi informada do plano de tratamento, do registro da sua documentação fotográfica, e detalhes sobre o seu procedimento terapêutico em si, em seguida preenchendo o Termo de Consentimento Livre e Esclarecido. Concluiu-se que, pelas observações da conduta e dos procedimentos realizados na paciente, que a rinomodelação demostrou ser um procedimento conservador, com um pós-operatório de leve edema e poucos relatos de dores além de obter resultados estéticos excelentes o que a leva a ser alternativa plausível para aqueles pacientes que desejam melhorar a estética em área de nariz, mas que não desejam se submeter a uma rinoplastia.
