Review of published case reports on diagnostic and therapeutic approach of chronic kidney disease through Ayurveda: A scoping review
Authors: Upadhyay Shushma , Pandey Yogesh Kumar 
Published: January 2025

Abstract

BACKGROUND:
The conceptual model of chronic kidney disease (CKD) was created by the National Kidney Foundation-Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative in 2002 and was later amended and adopted by an international consensus under the auspices of Kidney Disease Improving Growth Outcome (KDIGO) in 2005. The clinical presentation of CKD is defined by KDIGO as structural and functional abnormalities found in the kidney for at least 3 months, with or without decreased glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and may include abnormalities in the composition of blood or urine. CKD coexists with hypertension and diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease and is recognized as a risk factor for all. There is no reference of Vrukka Roga in ancient sources except “Vrukka Roga Chikitsa” mentioned in Bhaishajya Ratnavali as Parshisht Adhyaya, but the clinical presentation of CKD is similar to that of Mutravaha Sorotas Dusti. Several herbs are described for treatment of Mutravaha Srotas Dusti, which work as Mutrala (diuretics), Shothahara (anti-inflammatory), Pramehahara (anti-diabetic), and Basti Shodhak (cleanses the urinary bladder).

MATERIALS AND METHODS:
A review of published articles was planned to explore the effect of Ayurvedic management in improving renal function, hemoglobin levels, blood pressure, glycemic control, and other parameters in CKD. A comprehensive literature search of case studies spanning 8 years was conducted using Google Scholar, Web of Science, Scopus, and Index Copernicus. The studies that fulfilled the inclusive criteria were included in the review.

RESULTS:
Out of 35 identified case reports, 23 met the inclusion criteria for analysis. The mean age of the subjects was 51.58 years, with 70% males and 30% females. Following Ayurvedic treatment, notable improvements were observed in serum creatinine (Sr. Cr), serum urea, and hemoglobin levels (Hb%). However, only five case reports utilized the diagnostic criterion of estimated GFR (e-GFR), which showed significant improvement. There was no evidence to suggest the impact of herbal formulations on blood pressure, fasting glucose, serum electrolytes, or other related parameters.

CONCLUSION:
This scoping review suggests that Ayurvedic management shows potential benefits in CKD, with observed improvements in Sr. Cr, blood urea, Hb%, and e-GFR in a subset of studies. The data of the studies also demonstrate that the Ayurvedic interventions have potential in alleviating CKD-related symptoms. However, the few studies, inconsistencies in methodology, and lack of standardized diagnostic criteria underscore the need for large-scale, high-quality clinical trials to confirm these findings and establish the efficacy and safety of Ayurvedic formulations in CKD management.
A Cross-Sectional Study on Status of Contralateral Ear in Cases of Unilateral Chronic Otitis Media Mucosal Type of Disease
Authors: Buruhanudeen Sameera , Rajasekaran Valli , Pandian Manoj 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT

Context:
The contralateral ear may be experiencing chronic otitis media (COM) at different stages or without an active symptom, and therefore, it is doubtful that the COM in one ear will have any impact on it.

Aim:
The study aimed to determine the status of contralateral ear in cases of unilateral COM mucosal type of disease.

Settings and Design:
A cross-sectional study was conducted with 45 patients in a tertiary care center over 18 months.

Materials and Methods:
The patients between 18 and 60 years with unilateral mucosal COM were included in this study. All patients underwent otoscopy, pure tone audiometry (PTA), impedance, X-ray mastoid, and high-resolution computed tomoghraphy (HRCT) temporal bone evaluation for both ears.

Statistical Analysis:
The data were analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 22. Descriptive statistics was used to describe the findings in the contralateral ear.

Results:
The mean age of patients was 39.53 ± 13.64 years. Males and females were almost equally involved. Middle ear pressure changes were seen in eight (17.8%) of patients. Type A tympanogram was seen in 82.2% of contralateral ears, and the remaining showed type C. A total of 17.8% and 13.3% had pars tensa and pars flaccida retraction. Conductive hearing loss (CHL) was seen in 86.7%. Mastoids were well-pneumatized in 82.2% of patients, and 2% had ossicular erosion. No changes were seen in the Eustachian tube (ET) angle.

Conclusion:
The majority of the people had conductive hearing loss in the contralateral ear. The changes in the middle ear pressure and tympanic membrane retractions were also noted. Hence, we recommend mandatory evaluation of contralateral ear in COM (mucosal type) cases even if they are asymptomatic.
Clinicopathological Presentation, Prognosis, and Overall Survival of Primary Extra Nodal Lymphomas
Authors: Ghongade Pravinkumar , Patil Bharat Umakant , Gupta Anupama , Gangane Nitin M. 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT

Introduction:
Primary extranodal lymphoma (PENL) originates from extranodal organs or tissues. Approximately 25–40% of NHL arise primarily from sites other than lymph nodes.

Material and Methods:
A retrospective study where survival outcome was calculated using the Kaplan–Meier method. Prognostic factors were estimated using the Cox proportional hazard regression model.

Results:
Out of 228 non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) cases, 97 (42.54%) cases were presented as PENL. Head and neck (31.95%) were the most common site of PENL, followed by the gastrointestinal tract (24.7%) and soft tissue and bone (10.3%). The overall survival (OS) in PENL was 72.1%, while in nodal NHL, the overall survival was 47% at three years. The median survival for PENL was 1737.21 days, with a standard error of 155.31 days. Survival outcome, from KM method, analysis of PENL had a significant association with anatomical location (P = 0.022), given treatment modality (P = 0.000), and histopathological grading (P = 0.004). Associated factors of mortality from the multivariable analysis were noted as high-grade lymphoma histologically (P = 0.011) (Hazard ratio (HR) =3.112, 95% CI 1.592-6.889), T-cell lymphoma (HR = 1.887, 95% CI 0.893-4.121), single line treatment and no treatment (P = 0.028) (HR = 2.728, 95% CI 1.289-3.184), and age of patients >51 years. (HR = 1.772, 95% CI 0.86-3.297) (P = 0.041).

Conclusion:
The median survival for PENL was significantly better than nodal NHL. Prognostic factors such as age >51 years, single modality treatment T-cell lymphoma, high-grade lymphoma, and nodal lymphoma are associated with poor survival.
Immunohistochemical Study of Ki-67 and HER2/neu and its Correlation with Clinicopathological Features in Surface Epithelial Tumors of the Ovary
Authors: Alva Sameeksha , Pallipady Aravind 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACT

Background:
Worldwide, ovarian cancer is the sixth most common cancer and seventh most common cause of cancer death. Most of the ovarian cancers have spread beyond the ovary by the time of diagnosis; they account for a disproportionate number of deaths from cancer of the female genital tract. Ki-67 is one of the prognostic markers which determine the growth fraction of a tumor, and its overexpression is associated with malignancy, tumor aggression, prognosis, and metastasis. Overexpression of HER2/neu is most commonly observed in the breast, gastric carcinoma, lungs, and ovaries.

Material and Methods:
The study is conducted at the central diagnostic laboratory of the Pathology department at A.J. Institute of Medical Sciences and Research Centre, Mangalore. This was a 24 months prospective study. Hematoxylin and eosin sections were studied, and Ki-67 and HER2/neu immunohistochemistry was done.

Results:
A total of 61 cases were studied. Serous carcinoma (31%) was the most common type of tumor found in our study. The current study shows significant association between nature of tumor and KI 67 with Chi square value = 52.820 with P < 0.001. There was no significant association between the grade of differentiation and Ki-67 index, with P = 0.78. The association between the tumor staging and Ki-67 did not show any significance, with Chi-square = 21.574 and P value = .272. HER2/neu did not show any association with tumor grade, size, staging, and other variables. 100% of cases were tested negative in this study.

Conclusion:
High Ki-67 expression was associated with a malignant group of tumors. HER2/neu did not show any association in the current study as 100% cases were negative. Further investigation of HER2/neu with ISH method is necessary to rule out false negative results.

Authors: Cunha Gustavo Tavares Barbosa e 
Published: January 2025

O objetivo deste artigo foi avaliar as taxas de sobrevivência e sucesso de implantes imediatos em áreas estéticas. Essa temática se faz importante pois pode trazer melhorias na técnica e influenciar em maior autoestima e bem-estar aos pacientes. Para a realização deste estudo foi feita uma revisão integrativa de literatura. Assim, foram realizadas pesquisas nas bases de dados Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS) e Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE via PubMed), utilizando as seguintes palavras-chave: “implantes dentários”, “implantes imediatos” e “estética” ou “dental implants”, “immediate implants” e “aesthetic”. Foram incluídas no estudo, publicações relacionadas à temática, publicadas entre 2016 e 2021 em português ou inglês e disponíveis na íntegra. Com o estudo foi possível concluir que a colocação de implantes imediatos oferece muitas vantagens para o paciente e o clínico, mantendo a altura dos tecidos moles peri-implantar e aumentando a densidade óssea peri-implantar. Ainda, a carga oclusal imediata pode estar associada a reduções na dor do paciente, tempo de procedimento, e redução na quantidade de material a ser utilizado.

Introducción: este metaanálisis evaluó la efectividad de diversas estrategias en educación física para mejorar la condición física de escolares.
Objetivo: analizar intervenciones enfocadas en aumentar la capacidad cardiorrespiratoria, la fuerza muscular y mejorar la composición corporal en niños en edad escolar.
Metodología: se revisaron estudios publicados entre 2000-2023 en bases de datos como PubMed, Scopus y Web of Science. Se incluyeron 16 estudios con un total de 5,486 participantes, que analizaron intervenciones de ejercicios aeróbicos y de resistencia, realizadas al menos tres veces por semana durante un período de 12 semanas o más.
Resultados: muestran mejoras significativas en la capacidad cardiorrespiratoria (d = 0.78, IC 95%: 0.55-1.01) y en la fuerza muscular (d = 0.68, IC 95%: 0.45-0.91). También se observó una reducción significativa en el índice de masa corporal (d = 0.50, IC 95%: 0.30-0.70), lo que indica mejoras en la composición corporal de los escolares.
Discusión: Las intervenciones más efectivas fueron aquellas que incluían actividades físicas de intensidad moderada a vigorosa, realizadas de manera estructurada y constante. Estos hallazgos destacan la importancia de implementar programas de educación física escolar que promuevan la actividad física regular, combinando actividades aeróbicas y de resistencia, para maximizar los beneficios en la salud de los estudiantes.
Conclusiones: Se respalda la implementación de programas de actividad física estructurada en las escuelas. Futuros estudios deberían explorar los efectos a largo plazo de estas intervenciones y su impacto en diferentes subgrupos de la población escolar, desarrollando enfoques personalizados en la promoción de la salud infantil.

Innovation and the Characteristics of Board of Directors on the Performance of Islamic Banks in Indonesia
Authors: Prawati Fhatimah Nur , Wulandari Sepya Catur , Wahyuningsih Nur , Rosadi Samsul , Setiawan Ade , Mardiana Dewi Nurul 
Published: January 2025

This study examines how board characteristics and innovation affect the performance of Islamic banks in Indonesia. It analyzes panel data from 12 banks, observed from 2010 to 2020, using secondary data and quantitative methods. The results show that a board's educational background in business negatively impacts bank performance. In contrast, both board size and innovation have positive effects. Innovation also strengthens the positive link between a board's business education and bank performance. However, it does not moderate the effect of gender diversity on performance. Instead, it moderates the negative relationship between board size and performance. While providing valuable insights, this study is limited by data availability and its focus on the Indonesian Islamic banking sector. Future research should consider additional factors and a broader context to provide a more complete understanding. This can help guide the development of strategies and policies for Islamic banks. Additionally, exploring the role of regulatory frameworks and market conditions could offer deeper insights into the dynamics of bank performance.

Optical Transmission Enhancement of MoS2 Nanosheets Doped with Magnetic Materials Ni, Mn, and Cr
Authors: Kaddour Sondes , Zaimia Randa , Mastour Nouha , Ridene Said , Raouafi Noureddine 
Published: January 2025

In this work, we report both theoretical and experimental study of the influence of some materials with magnetic aspects such as Ni, Mn, or Cr in MoS2 photonic crystal structures. A functional density method technique has been introduced. Indeed, the results indicated that the transmission spectrum is considerably affected by the impact of doping from a photo shape and amplitude. Furthermore, appropriate doping has been shown to change the peak transmission shape of the MoS2 photonic crystal by splitting as an example. In fact, the transmission spectrum remains less identical with Ni and Mn doping and exhibits a doubling peak with Cr attributed to the first and second waveguide propagation modes. The obtained results can give a new degree of freedom in device application of MoS2 nanosheets such as photonic sensors, filter, and reflector. Finally, we can predict that the MoS2 photonic crystal doped with magnetic materials could be used in applications involving plasmonic Fano-resonances.

The scientific topic related to the modeling of optimal quality parameters of fermented milk products does not lose its relevance and is in the plane of existing state programs and national projects to provide the population with affordable high-quality products that meet the body's needs for nutrients. Computational methods based on digital systems of computer mathematics play a special role in modeling recipes, which makes it possible to approach the process of producing fermented dairy products for specialized and mass nutrition as reasonably as possible. This scientific article reflects the results of mathematical modeling of the formulation and quality indicators of fermented dairy products based on camel milk using probiotic starter cultures. The simulation was performed using the concept of a «black box», which is often used to create a mathematical model of the process under study. The study planning matrix included 30 repetitions, which covered all the variable parameters for fermentation of 100 liters of milk (the amount of probiotic starter culture (0.1-0.3 kg), time (4-12 hours) and temperature (30-34°C) of fermentation, acidity (104121°T). Taking into account the input data, the response surface and lines of equal level for the fermented milk product were determined, regression equations for individual indicators were compiled. As a result of the scientific work carried out, the optimal quality parameters for the production of fermented dairy products based on camel milk were determined: the fermentation time – 12 hours, the temperature –32 °C, the shelf life – 45 days, while the achieved acidity – 116 °T, as a result, the best organoleptic parameters of the fermented milk product have been preserved, which were estimated at 4.8 points out of a possible 5. Thus, this modeling method is the most effective tool for researching and implementing the results of scientific research into the production of food products with specified properties.
LIDERAZGO TRANSFORMACIONAL PARA EL DESARROLLO DE LAS ORGANIZACIONES
Authors: Pascual Del Rosario Gabriel 
Published: January 2025

La presente investigación presenta una revisión y análisis cualitativo conceptual de diversas literaturas o publicaciones científicas, entre otros autores, que aportan explicaciones (epistemológica) sobre la comprensión del liderazgo transformacional en el proceso de llevar a las organizaciones hacia el cambio y la innovación en un mundo globalizado y de dinamismo universal, donde impera un nuevo estilo gerencial, con un nuevo estilo de liderazgo capaz de transformar la filosofía de la organización.
En ese sentido, las investigaciones realizadas sobre el liderazgo transformacional nos orientan a establecer razones ventajosas como elementos inspiradores, capaz de responder a las necesidades para el desarrollo de las organizaciones que tienden a ser cada vez más compleja Se pretende establecer un análisis constructivo y reflexivo de las dimensiones que conforman el liderazgo transformacional en el marco de una nueva cultura organizacional, teniendo presente las variables de eficiencia - eficacia y liderazgo -integral y capacidad- , en la dinámica de las interrelaciones -líder y grupo- que se dan en el contexto organizacional.
Reflexiones y propuestas sobre las acciones civiles aplicadas a la tutela del crédito público. Estudio de la nulidad por causa ilícita
Authors: F. Romo Blanco Víctor F. 
Published: January 2025

El acreedor público, para la defensa recaudatoria del crédito público, para reaccionar frente al fraude de acreedores, tendrá a su disposición tanto las autotutelas administrativas como los remedios civiles y ambas vías serán compatibles y necesarias, especialmente para el caso de que, donde no lleguen las autotutelas sí puedan llegar los remedios civiles. En este sentido, por la jurisprudencia contenciosa se ha impuesto la necesidad de plazos concisos y conocidos para la declaración de responsabilidades tributarias, surgiendo la cuestión de cómo abordar el fraude de acreedores que pueda padecer el acreedor público. Dicho fraude de acreedores legitimará al acreedor público para ejercitar la acción de nulidad por simulación absoluta, que es imprescriptible, de suerte que, prescrito el derecho a declarar una responsabilidad tributaria por ocultación de bienes será obligación del acreedor público continuar la actividad recaudatoria por las vías civiles si se dan sus requisitos. De igual modo, por la jurisprudencia contenciosa se ha sentado que no cabe declarar la responsabilidad tributaria de un menor, como causante o colaborador en la ocultación de bienes en fraude del acreedor público. La solución no será otra que acudir a los remedios civiles, y a ser posible empleándolos combinadamente. En todo caso, la relación entre todas estas facultades y remedios, —los civiles y los propios de las autotutelas— será de plena compatibilidad. Así, el acreedor público podrá decidir con discrecionalidad técnica, si bien bajo un mandato, el de eficacia, pues lo que para el acreedor privado es principio dispositivo, para el acreedor público es necesidad de eficacia.
