The Use of Social Media in Delivering Rehabilitation Services by Healthcare Professionals at a Rehabilitation Healthcare City in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
Authors: Alderaibi Ghadah Mohammed , Bugis Bussma Ahmed 
Published: March 2023

Background:
The growing popularity of social media has been welcomed by medical professionals. With an increase in the number of healthcare providers addressing healthcare issues by using social media, such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Snapchat, and Instagram, as well as communicating and educating patients on public health, this new technology has a substantial impact on improving the overall public health.

Objective:
The primary purpose of this study was to examine the challenges and benefits of using social media in delivering rehabilitation healthcare services from the perspective of healthcare workers at a private institution in a rehabilitation healthcare city in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Methods:
A cross-sectional study was conducted among rehabilitation department staff working at a selected rehabilitation healthcare city in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. An online web-based questionnaire was developed based on previous studies. The survey was distributed to the employees of the rehabilitation department via their work email addresses.

Results:
The study population was 108 healthcare providers. Overall, 77.78% of participants had used social media for over five years. Participants reported using social media for numerous purposes. The majority (35.19%) used it for education purposes, 30.56% used it for networking, and others used it for other things, such as communication with patients, online consultations, and job hunting. Furthermore, 49.07% of participants were already using social media to deliver rehabilitation services.

Conclusion:
The study found that most healthcare providers agreed on the benefits of utilizing social media in the healthcare sector. Most of the benefits were expanding the knowledge of both healthcare workers and patients, easier communication with patients, and also a cost-effective means of communication. However, some of the concerns that were raised by healthcare providers were regarding patients’ privacy and confidentiality, the dissemination of false or misleading information, and legal and ethical considerations.

Authors: Allari Rabia S. , Hamdan Khaldoun 
Published: March 2023

Background:
Caring behavior impacts care quality and improves patients’ satisfaction. Hourly rounding aims at preventing missed care and improving hospital patient satisfaction.

Objectives:
This study aimed to examine the Jordanian nurses’ perception of caring behavior and hourly rounding and assess the correlation between perception of caring behavior and hourly rounding.

Methods:
A cross-sectional descriptive correlational design was used to conduct this study. A convenience sample of 1378 nurses completed the online Hourly Rounding Questionnaire (HRQ) and the Caring Dimension Inventory (CDI-25).

Results:
Nurses’ lowest agreement about hourly rounding was on the documentation. In comparison, the highest agreement was making patients safer by preventing falls. The mean of caring behavior was 105.39, indicating a high level of care. This study revealed significant differences in nurses’ perceptions of hourly rounding concerning hospital type, shifts, working units, and gender. Moreover, a strong positive correlation was found between nurses’ perceptions of hourly rounding and their perception of caring.

Implications for Nursing:
Nurses should take the psychosocial aspect of the patients as an essential priority when providing care. The nurse leaders are responsible for supervising, supporting, and evaluating that hourly rounding according to policy and protocols.

Conclusion:
This study demonstrated the importance of hourly rounding and caring behavior and their correlation.
What Support do family Caregivers For Mental Health Care Users Receive From Healthcare Professionals And Family Members? A Qualitative Study
Authors: Raluthaga Nelson , Shilubane Hilda N. , Mulondo Seani A. , Khoza Lunic B. 
Published: March 2023

Background:
Due to the mental health reforms in developed countries, the focus of mental healthcare services has shifted from hospital-based to community-based care. This suggests that family members are expected to care for their Menal Health Care User (MHCUs). This study aimed to explore the support caregivers for MHCUs receive from healthcare professionals and other family members.

Methods:
The participants were conveniently selected from the primary healthcare centres. Unstructured interviews were conducted with twelve family caregivers. Data were analyzed using Tesch’s open coding method. Ethical issues and trustworthiness were followed throughout the study.

Results:
The study revealed two themes, poor support from healthcare professionals and poor support from family members, and seven sub-themes.

Conclusion:
There is a dearth of information about the support offered to family caregivers of MHCUs in the context of South Africa. Training programs for caregivers are recommended to improve psychological well-being and social support while decreasing the caregiver burden.
A Novel System to Monitor Tic Attacks for Tourette Syndrome Using Machine Learning and Wearable Technology: Preliminary Survey Study and Proposal for a New Sensing Device
Authors: Rajinikanth Agni , Clark Davis Kevin , Kapsetaki Marianna Evangelia 
Published: March 2023

Background
Tourette syndrome is a neurological disorder that is characterized by repeated unintentional physical movement and vocal sounds, better known as tics. Cases of mild Tourette can have tics numerous times throughout the day, while severe cases may have tics every 5 to 10 seconds. At certain times, typically during high levels of stress, tics become chained in an incessant, continuous fashion—this is known as a tic attack. Tic attacks incapacitate the patient, rendering it difficult for them to move, perform daily actions, and even communicate with others. Caretakers—usually guardians, family members, or nurses—can help reduce the time tic attacks last with their presence and by providing emotional support to the patient.

Objective
We describe TSBand, a wearable wristband that uses machine learning algorithms and a variety of sensors to monitor for tic attacks and notify caretakers when an attack occurs.

Methods
We conducted a research survey with 70 Tourette patients to determine the usability and functionality of TSBand; internal review board approval was not required.

Results
This study has resulted in a smart wristband prototype that costs US $62.74; it uses movement, heart rate, sweat, and body temperature to detect tic attacks using a hybrid local outlier factoring and regression algorithm. An audio tic attack detection mechanism is also included, using recurrent neural networks, and a manually activated backup button and backup audio mechanism are fitted to alert caretakers on the personalized companion app.

Conclusions
TSBand enables the caretaker to provide support faster and prevent excessive self-harm or injury during the attack. It is an affordable and effective solution, solving a problem that many Tourette patients, often children, face. This study has not had the opportunity to test TSBand with any Tourette patients, and we aim to perform rigorous testing and analysis after grant funding is secured.
Ultrasound-Guided Posterior Iliac Crest Aspiration
Authors: Ott Nicholas , Garcia Barry 
Published: March 2023

Background: Bone Marrow Aspirate (BMA) contains growth factors and signaling entities essential for local cellular repair. BMA and concentrated BMA injections (BMC) are used for orthopedic procedures, such as in treating cartilaginous and bony defects. Several techniques exist for harvesting BMA. A technique termed ultrasound-guided posterior iliac crest aspiration (UPICA) is of special interest. This case series wasundertaken to determine if practitioners can effectively perform the UPICA technique in a clinical setting.
Methods: In accordance with the UPICA technique, ultrasound guidance was used to localize the posterior iliac crest. Following local anesthesia, aspiration was performed using 10 mL syringes at multiple depths. The periosteum was entered once. A needle was advanced 0.5 cm with each new depth. At each penetration level, 10 mL was drawn before rotating 90 degrees and aspirating an additional 10 mL. Following aspiration at various depths, approximately 60 mL of BMA was obtained. The inclusion criteria for this study were patients with diagnosed glenohumeral osteoarthritis, knee osteoarthritis, hip osteoarthritis, or rotator cuff tears whose condition had failed to improve with conservative care. The UPICA technique was performed in each case by the senior author (BG).
Results: For the 10 cases, the average patient age was 72 (SD 7.6; range 58–81) years old. The sample included 8 males and 2 females. The mean total nucleated cell count (TNCC)/mL BMA was 9.7E+06 (SD 2.9E+06), while the TNCC/mL bone marrow concentrate (BMC) was 43.9E+06 (SD 29.5E+06), a 4.3 (SD 2.3)-fold increase in concentration. The mean cell colony forming units-fibroblasts (CFU-f)/mL BMA was 520 (SD 155) with a mean CFU-f/mL BMC of 4899 (SD 2887) resulting in a 9.6 (SD 4.6)-fold increase in concentration. The viability for the BMA was 97.5 (SD 2.3) %, and the BMC was 94.9 (SD 4.55) %.
Conclusions: Utilizing the UPICA technique, similar yields for the BMC CFU-f/mL counts were obtained to those reported previously by other clinicians. Additionally, the results demonstrated the ability of the bone marrow concentration system to successfully concentrate the BMA. Based on these findings, the research team endorses the UPICA technique as a viable method for bone marrow aspiration.

Abstract
Ruminant husbandry contributes to global methane (CH4) emissions and beside its negative impact on the environment, enteric CH4 emissions cause a loss of gross energy intake in cows. The study is aimed to estimate CH4 emission and metabolic status in dairy cows via the methane concentration profile as a tool for analyzing the CH4 production pattern. The study included eighteen cows whose enteric CH4 emission was measured during three consecutive days in three periods: 2 hours before (P1), 2–4 hours (P2) and 6–8 hours (P3) after the morning feeding. Based on CH4 enteric emissions, cows were divided into two groups (n=6, respectively): HM (average CH4 concentration: 5430.08 ± 365.92 ppm) and LM (average CH4 concentration: 1351.85 ± 205.20 ppm). Following CH4 measurement, on day 3, venous blood was sampled to determine the indicators of the metabolic status. HM cows had significantly higher average CH4 concentrations, maximum and average CH4 peak amplitude than LM cows in all measuring periods (P1-P3), while the number of CH4 peaks tended to be higher in HM than in LM cows in P2. There were no differences in the maximum and average CH4 peak width and average distance among two CH4 peaks between examined groups of cows. HM cows had significantly higher total protein concentrations and significantly lower total bilirubin and NEFA concentrations than LM cows. In conclusion, HM cows have a greater number of eructations and release more CH4 per eructation than LM cows, hence the differences in metabolic status are most likely related to the differences in their liver function.
A Statistical Comparison of Call Volume Uniformity Due to Mailing Strategy
Authors: Raim Andrew M. , Nichols Elizabeth , Mathew Thomas 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
For operations such as a decennial census, the U.S. Census Bureau sends mail to potential respondents inviting a self-response. It is suspected that the mailing strategy affects the distribution of call volumes to the U.S. Census Bureau's telephone helplines. For staffing purposes, more uniform call volumes throughout the week are desirable. In this work, we formulate tests and confidence intervals to compare uniformity of call volumes resulting from competing mailing strategies. Regarding the data as multinomial observations, we compare pairs of call volume observations to determine whether one mailing strategy has multinomial cell probabilities closer to the uniform probability vector compared to another strategy. A motivating illustration is provided by call volume data recorded in three studies which were carried out in advance of the 2020 Decennial Census.
Delayed Xenograft Transplantation of Mouse Olfactory Ensheathing Cells in Adult Rats
Authors: Naghynajadfard Maryam 
Published: March 2023

Regeneration of the central nervous system after injury using appropriate cells for transplantation is a controversial issue. Accessibility of allograft olfactory ensheathing cells to transplant in the spinal cord of patients is not applicable. Therefore, in this study, an attempt has been made to xenotransplant cells from mouse into a corticospinal tract lesion in a rat in order to achieve a plausible preclinical approach for future application to a clinical study. Adult rats were trained to use their forepaws for retrieving. The dorsal corticospinal tract was lesioned by a stereotactic radio-frequency lesion maker at the level of the first/second cervical segments. Rats that had shown no forepaw retrieval by 8 weeks were xenotransplanted with a suspension of cultured olfactory ensheathing cells derived from the mouse olfactory bulb. Starting between 1 and 3 weeks, 10 rats with transplants bridging the lesion site resumed ipsilateral forepaw reaching. After transplanting cells into the lesion side, the cross and horizontal sections of GFAP and NF staining of 10 animals that have the Directed Forepaw Reaching (DFR) function returned showed the regenerated CST fibers in the lesion area after 8 weeks postoperative. Xenotrasplant of olfactory ensheathing cells from the mouse olfactory bulb into a rat corticospinal tract lesion was promising and positive. Animals that had difficulty in Directed Forepaw Reaching had returned the function 8 weeks postoperatively. Doi: 10.28991/SciMedJ-2022-04-02-01 Full Text: PDF

Introduction. Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is common variant of small vessel disease. Determination of neuroimaging markers have already contributed at an early stage to the more timely diagnosis of the CADASIL.Objective. The aim of the study was to determine probable CADASIL magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) biomarkers for patients from the Russian population.Material and methods. The study included 16 patients. Diagnosis of CADASIL was suspected based on clinical data and an MRI and confi rmed by a molecular genetic study of the NOTCH3 gene. Brain MRI data from 16 patients and spinal cord MRI data from 5 patients were collected and analyzed. Cerebrospinal fl uid (CSF) analysis was performed for diff erential diagnosis in 2 subjects.Results. White matter hyperintensity was observed in 100% of cases. The involvement of the anterior temporal lobes and external capsules was revealed in 62 and 68% of subjects respectively. Multiple lacunar infarcts are characteristic for CADASIL. Microbleeds were detected in 27% of patients. Brain atrophy was observed in 56% of cases. Lesions in corpus callosum and cervical spinal cord were found in 2 patients.Conclusion. Detection of white matters hyperintensities in frontal and parietal lobes, multiple lacunar infarcts with suspected CADASIL makes it possible to select the group of patients for further molecular genetic testing in order to detect mutations in NOTCH3 gene.
