USE OF ROUTINE SPECIAL STAINS FOR GASTRIC AND ESOPHAGEAL BIOPSIES
Authors: Belkacem Oussama 
Published: February 2023

Problem: Special stains such as the Giemsa, the Alcian blue (AB) and the Periodic Acid Schiff (PAS) are widely used for gastric and/or esophageal biopsies for the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) and intestinal metaplasia (IM). The purpose of our study was to determine if these stains are actually needful
Methods: We retrospectively studied 209 gastric and esophageal biopsies. We evaluated the H. pylori status on hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained slides and the presence of IM and finally we examined the special stains.
Results: 23% of cases were H. pylori-positive. H&E stain had a high degree of accuracy (92,1%). The Giemsa stain was positive in 23,7% and negative in 71,8%. The Giemsa was useful in 16,7% biopsies. The AB revealed goblet cells in 4,8% cases. AB sensibility was 90,9%. From the 208 slides stained with PAS, 4,3% were classed IM-positive. PAS sensibility was 90%. The two special stains (AB and PAS) have made no diagnostic gain.
Conclusions: Routine special stains for every single gastric and/or esophageal biopsy are not required and H&E assessment combined with selective ordering of these stains will identify all cases of H. pylori gastritis and IM.

Published: February 2023

Health Management Information Systems (HMIS) have been used by many countries using platforms adopted or own-designed. It’s implemented by integrating all healthcare services and gives service providers the ability to collect, store and use health data. The System is able to provide information on all aspects of the organization from billing to patient care and beyond. Despite its significance, lack of specificity and clarity hamper systematic understanding, successful implementation, and evaluation of its functional factors. The study was aimed at assessing the organizational factors for Health Management Information System performance in Elgeiyo-Marakwet County (EMC). The specific objective is to determine organizational factors for HMIS performance. Quantitative research method was used and data gathered through administration of questionnaires to 52 respondents. Data was analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) computer software version 20.0. The study found that there is presence of organizational factors for HMIS performance in the County as indicated by majority of the respondents. It concludes that the presence of structures for the HMIS, organo-gram in the county, and usage of HMIS structures is evident by the availability of organizational relationship of the systems’ stakeholder (vertical, horizontal) in issues of HMIS resource allocationand level of awareness of health policy, goals and objectives. The study recommends enhanced support for organizational systems performance for HMIS and regular review in the county.

Introduction: Few studies on respiratory distress in neonates (RDN) have been conducted in Gabon. In order to improve the management of this condition, we propose to carry out this work.
Objectives: To determine the prevalence of DRNN, highlight the risk factors and evaluate the quality of the management of this pathology.
Material and methods: A retrospective and descriptive including all newborns with respiratory distress and admitted to the ward during a 3 years period.
Results: Of the 661 hospitalized patients, 201 were admitted for respiratory distress, ie a prevalence of 30.4%. Respiratory distress was severe in 22.1% of cases. The most common functional sign was polypnea (38.4%). The associated signs were hyperthermia (34.2%), jaundice (18.4%) and hypotonia (12.1%). Peri-natal asphyxia was diagnosed in 12.1% of cases. Treatment was dominated by oxygen therapy with goggles or Hood (95.3%); CPAP was used once and artificial ventilation 8 times (4.2%). The hospitalization delay was less than 12 hours (45.3%). The mortality rate was 41.6%. Factors related to death in case of respiratory distress were: prematurity, low birth weight, and severity of respiratory distress.
Conclusion: Neonatal respiratory distress remains a frequent pathology of the perinatal period, its high mortality requires an appropriate antenatal and postnatal care urgent to improve the vital prognosis of the newborns.
SERUM LEVELS OF SELECT MICRONUTRIENTS IN PRIMIGRAVIDA WITH PREECLAMPSIA VERSUS THEIR NORMOTENSIVE COUNTERPARTS: A CASE CONTROL STUDY AT A TERTIARY TEACHING HOSPITAL IN KENYA.
Authors: AN Pulei , J Kinuthia 
Published: February 2023

Background: Preeclampsia (PE) is a one of the leading causes of maternal mortality as well as morbidity and long-term disability to mothers and newborns in sub-Saharan Africa. Various micronutrients have been implicated in its pathophysiology. Supplementation of some of these micronutrients, like calcium being recommended as part of the preventive strategies of PE in resource-poor countries. The status of these micronutrients and their relationship with PE vary from population to population.
Objective: To investigate the serum levels of select micronutrients (Vitamin D, calcium, zinc, and selenium) in preeclamptic and normotensive primigravid women in a tertiary teaching hospital in Kenya.
Methods: This was a case-control study. Primigravid controls matched for age and gestation with those with preeclampsia were included in the study. Data on their demographic and obstetric, nutritional were obtained. They were interviewed on frequency of consumption of specific nutrient rich foods. Blood samples were obtained for serum analysis of Vitamin D, Calcium, Selenium and Zinc levels.
Results: 108 participants were included. There were no significant differences in age, educational level and income level between the two study groups. Mean serum calcium and Vitamin D levels were significantly lower among the participants with preeclampsia. The mean serum vitamin D level amongst cases and controls was 20.8±10.2 ng/ml and 28.6±7.9 ng/ml respectively (p<0.001) while the serum calcium levels were 2.2±0.3mmol/l for the cases and 2.3±0.09mmol/l for the controls (p=0.024). There was no statistically significant association between serum levels of Selenium and Zinc with preeclampsia. Most of the controls consumed diets rich in calcium in comparison to the cases. The controls were more likely to consume fish, one of the dietary sources of Vitamin D, compared to the cases. There were no differences in consumption of foods rich in zinc and selenium.
Conclusion: Pregnant women with preeclampsia have lower serum levels of calcium and vitamin D compared to their normotensive counterparts.

The Secrets of Calvino'sArs Combinatoria
Authors: Mazza Giordano 
Published: February 2023

AbstractIn this article, I explore the relationship between secrets and ars combinatoria, or the art of combining elements.1 In particular, I analyze this relationship in Italo Calvino's works, as Calvino can be thought of as the major representative of combinatorial literature in Italy. Although there are several published articles discussing the literary theory on secrecy, and several more analyzing combinatorial literature in Calvino, none discusses the importance of secrets in Calvino or links combinatorial literature with secrecy. I argue that ars combinatoria and, more specifically, combinatorial literature, is always closely linked with secrecy. I demonstrate that secrecy is a key aspect of combinatorial literature and that such combinatory elements become an essential part of Calvino's storytelling. I first define each of these terms (secrecy and combinatorics) in a broader context and then in the context of their literary usage.
Revisiting Italian Colonialism: Transgenerational Trauma inAduaby Igiaba Scego
Authors: Conrad Sydney 
Published: February 2023

AbstractMigration, racial injustice, and history intersect at the center of Igiaba Scego's novel Adua, which not only presents the marginally discussed topic of Italian colonialism but also calls into question the relationship between Italian colonialism and history in connection with trauma. This article focuses on the passing of trauma from father to daughter, tracing the pathways of what scholars have called transgenerational trauma. In particular, I rely on Joshua Pederson's framework to locate trauma within literary texts, focusing on the dissociative moments of the father figure whose dreams, visions, and premonitions become the locus of trauma. From there, I use clinical psychology and psychiatry to identify the symptoms of trauma and analyze their continual effects on the novel's protagonist, Adua. By linking Italian colonialism to the postcolonial period, I argue that Scego frames Italian colonialism as part of a legacy, one that does not come to a full stop at the end of World War II but rather has a lasting, continual impact on Italian society and the subsequent generations of those who were subjugated under Italian colonialism.

ألوان الطيف الشمسي العاملة في تكوين اللون المستخدم بالخلط أو بالأستقلال، وهذه الظاهرة تعرف بـ الهيو (Hue).
شدة ألوان عناصر الطيف الشمسي وتسمى الفاليو (Value)، والإشارة هنا إلى درجة الدكانة.
مقدار الشوائب معبراً عنه بنسبة النقاوة وتسمى بالكروما (Chroma).

قام الباحث بتوزيع العينات على أطلس منسل للتعرف الى قيمها الرقمية وأصنافها إذ أظهرت نتائج الباحث أن أترب منطقة الدراسة تقع ضمن الصفحة (10 YR) كذلك شملت الصفحة (7.5 YR) بعضاً من عينات الترب فضلاً عن الصفحة (5 YR).

Persoalan persoalan kebangsaan yang terjadi 10 tahun terakhir secara nasional pada dasarnya mengarah pada empat isu utama yaitu politik identitas, politisasi agama, intoleransi, dan konflik ideologis yang berpengaruh pada pelemahan nilai nilai Pancasila. Konflik ideologis ini dapat ditelusuri dari munculnya gerakan radikalisme, fundamentalisme, dan aksi terorisme yang mengarah pada ancaman akan keutuhan bangsa dan negara dan ketahanan nasional. Tujuan dari tulisan ini berupaya mendeskripsikan dan menganalisis tentang fenomena sosial dan politik kebangsaan yang terjadi di wilayah melalui studi kasus di Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan fenomenologi sosial dan politik melalui observasi dan penelusuran dokumen fata dan data data terkait isu isu ideologis dan kebangsaan yang diberitakan melalui media cetak baik elektronik maupun cetak tentang DIY. Analisis yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini menggunakan analisis kritis dan induktif untuk mendapatkan esensi dari persoalan yang muncul. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa ketahanan ideologi di masyarakat pada masa pandemi covid 19 semakin melemah karena situasi dan kondisi sosial, politik, dan ekonomi yang juga melemah. Masuknya ideologi baru semakin mudah melalui media sosial dan elektronik untuk membawa ideologi baru berpotensi memperlemah ketahanan nasional. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa ketahanan ideologi di masyarakat kurang tangguh dan perlu diperkuat dengan mengembalikan nilai nilai Pancasila.
