Authors: Mohan Priyanka , Yerraguntla Krishna , Rajashekhar Bellur 
Published: March 2023

Introduction:
Although studies have been carried out to know the influence of family support, family size, the modality of communication, socioeconomic status, and maternal involvement on intervention outcomes, fewer studies have addressed parents' views and their attitudes toward the process. The current study aims to assess relatively unexplored domains in the Indian context through the Parents' Perspective questionnaire.

Materials and Methods:
The participant groups consisted of parents who were visiting implant centers for rehabilitation during the study period. Parents of children who have had at least 1 year of rehabilitation postimplantation were considered as participants. The parents' perspective questionnaire was adapted and modified to be socioculturally sensitive to the Indian population. The translated version(s) of the questionnaire comprising 40 items under 10 domains was administered in person and through telephonic interviews. Expectations and satisfaction ratings from 102 parents were analyzed across different domains.

Results:
The questionnaire recorded positive responses and satisfaction in all psychosocial domains assessed. A vast majority of parents reported difficulty in decision-making in addition to stress during the pre- and post-operative periods.

Conclusions:
The parental perspectives emerging from this study can help professionals address parental concerns, provide assistance in decision-making, and contribute to a better and more approachable service delivery system.
Phoneme Monitoring Abilities in Bilingual Adolescents and Young Adults Who Stutter
Authors: Kumari Archita , Ghadei Abhilash , Thontadarya Suresh , Srividya A. 
Published: March 2023

Introduction:
Stuttering occurs when the simultaneous and sequential programming of muscle movements required to produce a continuous flow of speech is disrupted. The generalized phoneme monitoring task, in which subjects detect target phonemes appearing anywhere in the test words, was shown to be sensitive to associative context effects. The aim is to investigate the phoneme monitoring abilities in L2 (English) among bilingual adolescents and young adults who stutter. This was a comparative study.

Methods:
Twenty-two bilinguals (11 persons with stuttering [PWS] and 11 persons with no stuttering [PWNS]) were considered within the age range of 10-16 years (adolescents) and 17-24 years (young adults). An adaptation of the Language Experience and Proficiency Questionnaire (LEAP-Q) to the Indian context was done on all the participants. The phoneme of English with the highest occurrence was considered. A list of picturable bisyllabic words was made using these target phonemes in initial and medial positions. The audio of targeted phonemes was prerecorded using PRAAT software. In phase 1, PsychoPy software was used to present the targeted phoneme along with the familiarized picture and record the responses of the participants. Keys of the keyboard were assigned to yes/no. In phase 2, the same picture was presented, and the response rate and accuracy in naming the pictures shown were calculated. Descriptive statistics and one-way ANOVA were done.

Results:
The results of the present study showed that bilingual PWNS took more time to identify the presence or absence of the target consonant when compared to bilingual PWS. Bilingual PWNS had a higher number of correct responses than bilingual PWS. With respect to the position of the target phoneme, incorrect responses were similar when the target phoneme was in the medial or initial position.

Conclusion:
The current study advances the theoretical understanding of the causes of stuttering, particularly by supporting the psycholinguistic causes of stuttering.
Nurse-led interventions for prevention and control of noncommunicable diseases in low- and middle-income countries
Authors: Kavita Kavita , Thakur Jarnail Singh , Ghai Sandhya , Narang Tarun , Kaur Rajbir 
Published: March 2023

Background:
Low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) face numerous challenges in the implementation of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) prevention programs due to a shortage of health workforce. Task shifting to nurses is a viable and effective solution to address the healthcare human resource crisis. We, therefore, intend to assess the existing evidence on the effectiveness of interventions by nurses for the management of chronic NCDs in LMICs.

Methods:
We did a systematic review and meta-analysis of the trials that utilized nurses for the management of NCDs in LMICs. We searched PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and clinical registries of different LMICs to search for relevant literature. Meta-analysis using an inverse-variance weighted random effect model was used to summarize the findings. The study protocol was registered in the PROSPERO database (CRD42019118430).

Results:
We found 2097 studies from the literature search, out of which 39 studies with 15,672 participants were eligible for narrative synthesis. Result of the meta-analysis showed that nurse-led interventions were effective in the reduction of systolic blood pressure (SBP) (average pooled mean difference was −4.32 [95% (confidence interval) CI − 7.07–−1.57]), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (−3.11 mmHg; 95% CI −4.96–−1.26), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) (−0.73; 95% CI − 1.08–−0.38), fasting blood sugar (FBS) (−0.8; 95% CI −13.42–−2.58), total cholesterol (TC) (−1.18; 95% CI −20.06–−3.57), and triglycerides (TG) (−12.20; 95% CI − 23.52–−0.87). However, there was no major significant difference in low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL). The overall quality of evidence based on the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluations was moderate for FBS, low for SBP, DBP, HbA1c, HDL, TC, and TG, and very low for LDL.

Interpretation:
Nurse-led interventions as compared to usual care are effective for the management of diabetes and hypertension and can be effectively used for national NCD programs in LMICs.

Published: March 2023

Background:
Sedation practices in pediatric intensive care units (PICUs) vary significantly worldwide. This study aimed to explore the current sedation and analgesia practices among paediatric intensivists in Saudi Arabia.

Methods:
This web-based survey was conducted among pediatric intensive care physicians in Saudi Arabia. The survey investigated the participating PICUs, physicians' demographic data, and sedation/analgesia practices.

Results:
Of the 160 physicians included, the response rate was 67% (n = 108). Of the 100 participants who provided location information, 51% (n = 51) were from the central region of Saudi Arabia. Approximately two-thirds of the participants were consultants, and 48.1% had >10 years of experience. Most respondents practised in general PICUs and routinely assessed sedation and analgesia levels. The COMFORT-Behavior and Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, and Consolability scales were popular (42.6%). More than half of the respondents (52/98) did not practice daily sedation interruption. Furthermore, 78.3% of the respondents assessed patients for withdrawal, whereas only 25% used delirium screening scores. Infusions were preferred over interrupted doses to provide comfort for mechanically ventilated patients. The first-choice infusions were midazolam for sedation and fentanyl for analgesia. Dexmedetomidine was preferred when a third agent was required. Sedation protocols were used by 41.2% of the respondents and were mainly physician-led (75.2%). Various nonpharmacological measures were used to provide patient comfort, and parents often participated in their application.

Conclusions:
The practice of sedation varies significantly between pediatric intensivists, and formal assessment for delirium is infrequently done in PICUs in Saudi Arabia.
Studies on Eating Disorders in Taiwan
Authors: Tu Chao-Ying , Tseng Mei-Chih Meg 
Published: March 2023

Background:
Eating disorder (ED) is a disease entity with substantial physical and psychosocial morbidity, while it has remained underdetected by clinicians in Taiwan. To improve the detection and treatment of EDs by health-care professionals in Taiwan, we reviewed ED studies in Taiwan, including epidemiology, measurements, correlates, comorbidities, and health-care use.

Methods:
A literature review was done using PubMed. The main inclusion criteria were studies that focused on EDs and disordered eating attitudes/behaviors and were done in Taiwan.

Results:
Several frequently used ED measurements had well-established Mandarin Chinese versions, and they all had sound psychometric properties. Disordered eating attitudes/behaviors have been prevalent in Taiwanese adolescents and college students, but EDs were detected at an older age compared to that in Western countries. Having a diagnosis of ED and higher ED symptom severity are associated with increased comorbidity burden. All patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) and bulimia nervosa (BN) have sought treatment for physical problems while less than half have sought treatment for mental health problems. Studies have also shown a 2–4-fold higher total costs in patients with AN/BN than individuals without EDs.

Conclusion:
More effort is needed to detect individuals with AN and BN at a younger age in Taiwan. Programs targeting at the influence of family, peers, and media on the body image of children/adolescents and young adults await establishment. We also need to build more educational programs to improve ED literacy in both health-care professionals and the general public for early detection and timely treatments of EDs by mental health professionals.

Published: March 2023

Background:
The pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 has emerged as one of the biggest health threats of our generation. Since its outbreak, COVID-19 has been showing many typical and some atypical manifestations. One of the common complications in COVID-19 is delirium. Delirium should be detected at the earliest to reduce mortality in COVID-19.

Methods:
We prospectively studied hospitalized adult (age ≥ 18 years) patients with confirmed COVID-19 from May 1 to May 31, 2021, at GMERS Medical College and Civil Hospital, Sola, Ahmedabad, India. We included all patients suffering from COVID-19 and diagnosed with delirium in the study. Delirium was assessed using the Confusion Assessment Method and Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale. Follow-up was done for delirium patients on days 0, 5, 10, and 30.

Results:
We included 1,233 patients in the analysis. The incidence of delirium was found 2.43% in which 63.3% were hypoactive delirium while 36.7% were hypoactive delirium presentation. The mean age ± standard deviation of delirium patients was 68.33 ± 14.67 years (range = 46-92) years, and 20 (66.7%) were male and 10 (33.3%) were female. The result of the study also showed statistical significance between deaths in patients of confirmed cases of COVID-19 with delirium (93.33%) than patients of confirmed cases of COVID-19 without delirium (12.38%, p < 0.001).

Conclusion:
The presence of delirium was associated with increased risk of mortality in hospitalized adults with COVID-19.

Authors: Kumolalo Ferdinand Banji , Obadeji Adetunji , Adegoke Benjamin Olamide 
Published: March 2023

Objectives:
Earlier studies suggest that self-esteem is an important predisposing factor to substance use among young adults. In this study, we intended to determine the risk, patterns of substance use, and the association between self-esteem and substance use among undergraduate students.

Methods:
This is a cross-sectional study in a state university in Nigeria. The study university students completed a copy of sociodemographic questionnaire inquiring about their substance use and an assessment with the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale.

Results:
A sum of 448 students took part in the study. Among them, the odds ratio (OR) (95% confidence interval) of 198 (44.2%) students was found to be 0.442 (0.395–0.489) for a lifetime history of any substance use while OR (95% confident interval) of 141 (31.5%) students was found to be 0.315 (0.272–0.360) to have a history of current use of any substance. We also found that 182 students, i.e., 0.406 (0.360–0.453) and 118 students, i.e., 0.263 (0.223–0.307) had lifetime and current use of alcohol, respectively. This was followed by nicotine, tramadol, and cannabis. Participants who were 21 years and above, male, in third year and above, and who were not satisfied with their finances were significantly more to have a lifetime and current history of substance use (p < 0.05). There was no significant association between self-esteem and either lifetime or current substance use.

Conclusion:
The patterns of substance use in this study were similar to those obtained in the general population, however, with a relatively higher rate of alcohol use. Students with substance use were more likely to be males, older, have some financial difficulties, and low to normal self-esteem.

Published: March 2023

The place of Life Kinetic exercises in technical skill and motor skill performance of football players is gaining great importance in science. For this reason, the present study aims to examine the effects of this training method, which is used all over the world, on the technical skills and motor skill performance of football players of this. The study was conducted on a total of 40 football players, 20 in the experimental group and 20 in the control group, who were actively training at Çarşambaspor club at least three days a week. While the control group continued their routine training, the experimental group was asked to train for 30 minutes with Life Kinetic exercises for 8 weeks, 3 days a week, in addition to their routine training. Mor and Christian Football Aptitude Test, Yeagley Football Test and Motor Skill tests were applied to the football players. In terms of total, a statistically significant difference was found between the first and the second measurement values of T agility, vertical jump, flexibility, 20-meter sprint, long jump, dribbling, pass accuracy, shooting, and kick-ups (p&lt;0.005). In terms of total, a statistically significant difference was found between the first and last measurement values of dribbling, pass accuracy, shooting test, kick-ups, 20-meter sprint, vertical jump, and standing long jump test (p&lt;0.005). A statistically significant difference was found between the first and last measurement values of the experimental group in dribbling, pass accuracy, shooting, kick-ups, 20-meter sprint, and standing long jump tests (p&lt;0.005). As a result of the study, it was concluded that Life Kinetic exercises provide a positive development in technical skills and some motor skill performances of the footballers and that they have a significant effect, especially on dribbling, pass accuracy and shooting performance of the football players. In addition, even though statistically significant differences were not found in some measurements, it was found that the measurements of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group. For this reason, infrastructure athletes can train every day with Life Kinetic exercises for the development of basic skills such as more contact with the ball, dribbling, shooting and passing, while coaches can include Life Kinetic exercises in their training plans.<p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/soc/0265/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>

Authors: Кузьминых Александр Леонидович 
Published: March 2023

В статье рассмотрена история учреждений для военнопленных и интернированных периода Великой Отечественной войны на территории Коми АССР. Предметом исследования являются региональные и институциональные особенности формирования и функционирования учреждений военного плена и интернирования, а также состав и положение содержавшихся в них лиц. Методологическую основу исследования составили принципы историзма и системности научного анализа. На основе архивных документов раскрыты особенности транспортировки, лагерной инфраструктуры, режима, продовольственного снабжения и медицинского обслуживания, политической работы, трудового использования и репатриации. Автор приходит к выводу, что спецификой региона являлось формирование учреждений для военнопленных и интернированных в структуре исправительно-трудовых лагерей ГУЛАГа. Пребывание в лагерях и рабочих батальонах НКВД - МВД СССР, а также принудительное привлечение к труду стало своеобразной формой наказания для обезоруженных военнослужащих германской армии и гражданских немцев, интернированных на территории Восточной Пруссии в завершающий период Великой Отечественной войны.
The article deals with the history of institutions for prisoners of war and internees during the Great Patriotic War on the territory of the Komi ASSR. The subject of the study is the regional and institutional features of the formation and functioning of institutions of military captivity and internment, as well as the composition and position of the persons held in them. The methodological basis of the study was the principles of historicism and systematic scientific analysis. Based on archival documents, the features of transportation, camp infrastructure, regime, food supply and medical care, political work, labor use and repatriation are revealed. The author comes to the conclusion that the specificity of the region was the formation of institutions for prisoners of war and internees in the structure of the GULAG forced labor camps. Staying in camps and work battalions of the NKVD - the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the USSR, as well as forced labor became a kind of punishment for disarmed servicemen of the German army and civilian Germans interned in East Prussia in the final period of World War II.

Authors: Южанин Николай Вячеславович 
Published: March 2023

Субсидиарная ответственность является видом ретроспективной ответственности, которая позволяет взыскать долг не только с должника, но и с контролирующего субъекта. В настоящее время в практике привлечения к субсидиарной ответственности контролирующих должника лиц произошли изменения, состоящие в упрощении данного порядка для должника. Цель представленной статьи - рассмотреть новый подход в судебной практике по привлечению государства в лице конкретного распорядителя бюджетных средств по обязательствам федеральных казенных учреждений к субсидиарной (дополнительной) гражданско-правовой ответственности. Анализируется новый порядок привлечения к субсидиарной (дополнительной) ответственности государства в лице ФСИН России. Предлагаются некоторые рекомендации по устранению причин негативных последствий неисполнения обязательств со стороны казенных учреждений уголовно-исполнительной системы. В статье использовался преимущественно системный анализ как метод исследования. Практическая ценность представленного материала состоит в повышении уровня новых знаний лиц, ответственных за правовое сопровождение работы учреждений и органов государства и уголовно-исполнительной системы.
Subsidiary liability is a type of retrospective liability, which allows you to collect a debt not only from the debtor, but also from the controlling entity. Currently, there have been changes in the practice of bringing to subsidiary liability the persons controlling the debtor, which have been made in simplifying this procedure for the debtor. The purpose of this article is to consider a new approach in judicial practice to bring the state, represented by a specific manager of budgetary funds for the obligations of federal state institutions, to subsidiary (additional) civil liability. A new procedure for bringing the state represented by the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia to subsidiary (additional) liability is analyzed. Some recommendations are proposed to eliminate the causes of the negative consequences of non-fulfillment of obligations by state institutions of the penitentiary system. The article mainly used system analysis as a research method. The practical value of the presented material is to increase the level of new knowledge of persons responsible for the legal support of the work of institutions and bodies of the state and the penitentiary system.
