Published: December 2022

The epidemic of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), originated in Wuhan, China, has become a major public health challenge not only for China but also countries around the world. The repercussions of the current rapid spread of COVID-19, which has affected millions of people worldwide, ranging from being isolated and quarantined to fatality have resulted in considerable psychological stress and fear.

Aim:
The aim of the study is to assess the knowledge, attitude and perception of practicing dentists toward COVID-19 in Visakhapatnam.

Materials and Methods:
A self-administered, pretested, and validated questionnaire was designed and mailed to the dental professionals assessing information regarding sociodemographic details, knowledge, attitude, and perception toward COVID-19 among dental practitioners in Visakhapatnam. Convenience sampling was used and a total of 264 participants were included in the study based on inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Results:
The correct incubation period of the virus was recognized by 43% of participants. Participants in age groups 50–60, 40–50, were more likely to perceive COVID-19 as a very dangerous disease compared to 30–40 and 23–30 years of age groups. Study participants with 15–20 and 20–25 years of practice were more likely to treat those patients and ask them to go to the hospital (74%, 67%, respectively). On the other hand, dentists with 1–5, 5–10, years of practice were more likely to refuse to treat and ask him/her to leave clinic (75%, 63%, of participants, respectively). The study participants showed satisfactory knowledge and a positive attitude toward COVID-19.

Conclusion:
Although we had faced the prospect of a second wave of virus transmission, we must take certain measures and make changes to minimize the effects of next coming waves of the COVID-19 outbreak on dental practice. This is the time for change and there should be support and enthusiasm for providing valid solutions to reduce this disruption which can be achieved through increasing their accessibility to materials provided by dental health-care authorities, which specifies the best and safest approaches for dealing with patients during and after the outbreak.

Published: December 2022

Background:
Transgender population are a high-risk group in the community, as their oral health gets neglected due to the stigma associated with them. Since it is an impediment to obtain oral care services, a group of such persons were identified with an intention of examining them orally and providing basic oral treatment.

Aim:
To identify a cohort of transgender persons using tobacco product and provide group behavioral counseling for cessation of their habit.

Materials and Methods:
A total of five locations wherein transgender persons were residing were identified. Demographic details of the participants such as age, education status, and occupation were recorded. The tobacco product use details regarding frequency, duration of use, and form of tobacco were documented. The identified tobacco users were provided with behavioral tobacco cessation counseling. Follow-up was done every month for 6 months and at 18th month through self-reported abstinence and urine cotinine test at 6th month. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics in the form of numbers and percentages and the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) (Mid-P) were provided using WinPepi PORTAL.

Results:
A total of 52 transgender persons aged 18–58 years were identified. Tobacco product use was identified in 73%, out of which 13% smoked tobacco, 84% chewed tobacco, while 2% smoked and chewed both. Postintervention at 6th month, 21% (CI: 0.10–0.36) abstained from the habit of tobacco product use, which was self-reported and 7% (CI: 0.02–0.20) was validated with urine cotinine. By the 18th month, 15% (CI: 0.06–0.29) had self-reported abstinence.

Conclusion:
The prevalence of tobacco consumption was high among transgender population. Tobacco cessation program helped in quitting the adverse habit in 15% of the population. Cessation programs supplemented with nicotine replacement therapy use in this marginalized section of the society would help achieve a better abstinence.

Published: December 2022

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection during pregnancy may increase the risk of stillbirth, neonatal death, preterm birth, low birth weight, fetal distress, and neonatal asphyxia (1). Vertical transmission of SARS-CoV-2 is under investigation. A few reports suggest the possibility of SARS-CoV-2 transmission from mothers to their neonates. The SARS-CoV-2 virus was reported as one of the rare causes of fetal inflammatory response syndrome (FIRS) (5) and is associated with multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) (6).Most neonates have mild symptoms, but some develop multisystem involvement including respiratory distress, feeding intolerance, lethargy. Most of the infants have elevated biomarkers, positive septic screen, and elevated inflammatory markers. Infants diagnosed with MIS-N gradually improve after 2 doses of IVIG and IV Steroid ( Methylprednisolone).

Trapped in the System
Authors: Peitersen Rune , Curran Mark 
Published: December 2022

In the interview, Mark Curran and Rune Peitersen talk about topics of the artist’s visual explorations, which in his past projects (which concern the usage of military drones), revolve around physical distance and the powerlessness of drone operators and their targets, while considering whether the visua lrepresentations of drone warfare has any power to elicit empathy. On the other hand, in another system of control, the same distance and its relationship to the viewer is stressed in the interplay between human interest and interference with nature in Peitersen’s latest ongoing project, in which he questions systematization again, this time not due to artificial algorithmic intelligence, but as a human-made system of attempted ownership of nature.

Давлат хизмати кўрсатиш масаласининг пайдо бўлиш тарихи
Authors: Рафикова Гулноза 
Published: December 2022

Антик даврдан бошлаб, файласуфлар, ҳуқуқшунослар ва сиёсатшунослар “жамият” ва “давлат” тушунчаларининг ўзаро бир-бирларига нисбати қандай эканлиги тўғрисида турли-туман фикрлар билдирган. Ҳозирги даврга келиб, замонавий давлат сифатида ижтимоий жиҳатлардан мувозанатга эришган давлатни эътироф этиш русумга кирди.
Қадимги даврлардан буён барча жамиятларда давлат хизматларининг куртакларини топиш мумкин. Жумладан, Қадимги Хитой, Ҳиндистон, Марказий Осиё, Миср ва бошқа мамлакатларда ирригация, сунъий суғориш каналлари, хавфсизликни сақлаш, ғалланинг ижтимоий захиралари давлат бошқарувида бўлган.

Мақолада шартнома тузиш, уни расмийлаштириш бўйича норматив-ҳуқуқий база имкониятлари ва бу борадаги ҳуқуқий ёндашувлар таҳлил қилинади. Ўзбекистонда шартнома тузишга доир талабларга риоя қилиш ҳақида қарашлар анчадан буён мавжуд бўлса-да, қонунчиликдаги муаммоларни бартараф этиш бўйича олдинги силжиш кузатилмади. Бозор иқтисодиёти шароитида шартномага бўлган талаб ва эҳтиёж, шартномавий муносабатлардан келиб чиқадиган низоларни самарали ҳал қилишга бўлган қизиқиш тобора кучайиб бормоқда. Бугунги кунда муаллифнинг қайд этишича, шартнома тузиш ва унинг моҳияти етарлича очиб берилмаган. Шартнома тузиш жараёнида қонунчилик мазмунида ифодаланган талабларга риоя қилиниши, шартнома тузиш эркинлиги тамойили тўлақонли ва устувор равишда амал қилиниши шарт деб ҳисоблайди. Муаллиф таҳлил жараёнида ушбу масалаларни кенгроқ ўрганиб, ўзининг муаллифлик позициясини билдирган. Мақоланинг хулоса қисмида эса, шартнома тузишга доир қонунчиликни такомиллаштириш бўйича муаллиф томонидан таклифлар илгари сурилган.
Duration of operation and diagnosis of hepatitis B (HBV) is an independent risk factor for surgical site infections after liver transplantation
Authors: Aksoy Fuat , Ziya Dündar Halit , Kaya Ekrem 
Published: December 2022

Objective: Surgical site infections (SSI) are the most common complications after liver transplantation (LT). Although there are some risk factors known in the literature after LT, the available data is insufficient for routine use. In the present study, it was aimed to define the parameters that may be used to clearly determine the risk of SSI after LT in our clinic.
Material and Methods: In the present study, we evaluated 329 patients who underwent liver transplantation with regard to risk factors for surgical site infections. The relation between demographic data and SSI was evaluated using SPSS, Graphpad, and Medcalc statistical programs.
Results: In a total of 329 patients, SSIs were determined in 37 (11.24%). Among the 37 patients, 24 were classified as organ space (64.9%) and 13 as deep SSI (35.1%). None of these patients developed superficial incisional infection. SSI showed statistically significant relation with operation time (p= 0.008), diabetes (p= 0.004), and cirrhosis due to hepatitis B (p< 0.001).
Conclusion: As a result, deep and organ space infections are much more observed in patients undergoing liver transplantation with hepatitis B, diabetes mellitus and prolonged surgery. This is thought to have developed because of chronic irritation and increased inflammation. Since data on hepatitis B and duration of surgery are limited in the literature, this study is considered to be a contribution to the literature.

Published: December 2022

Objective: In this study, it was aimed to examine nylon burns in paediatric patients and compare the results with other causes of hot object contact burns.
Material and Methods: A 10-year retrospective study was conducted on 77 paediatric patients hospitalized for hot body burns at Gazi Yaşargil Training and Research Hospital Burn Center.
Results: Of those patients with hot body burns, 72.7% (n= 56) were males and 27.3% (n= 21) were females. Male-to-female ratio was 2.67:1. Mean age of the patients was 4.79 (min= 1, max= 16) years. There were 42 patients who applied to our hospital on the day of their burn, while four patients applied one day after the burn, one patient applied two days after the burn, 13 patients applied three days after the burn and 17 patients applied five days after the burn. Most burns (79.3%) were third-degree burns, whereas 19.5% were seconddegree and 1.2% were fourth-degree burns. The most common causes of hot body burns were hot nylon and hot stoves, followed by hot ash and hot irons. The number of nylon burns was the highest in the summer and the highest number of hot stove burns occurred in the winter. Nylon burns were most common in the three to eight age group and then gradually decreased. The highest burn rate was observed in nylon burns.
Conclusion: The most common cause of all burns in the Turkish paediatric population is scalding. Although nylon burns are rare, they draw attention due to their higher burn degrees.

Published: December 2022

Objective: latrogenic colon perforation (ICP) is one of the most feared complications of colonoscopy and causes unwanted morbidity and mortality. In this study, we aimed to discuss the characteristics of the cases of ICP we encountered in our endoscopy clinic, its etiology, our treatment approaches, and results in the light of the current literature.
Material and Methods: We retrospectively evaluated the cases of ICP among 9.709 lower gastrointestinal system endoscopy procedures (colonoscopy + rectosigmoidoscopy) performed for diagnostic purposes in our endoscopy clinic during 2002-2020.
Results: A total of seven cases of ICP were detected. The diagnosis was made during the procedure in six patients and after eight hours in one patient, and their treatment was performed urgently. Whereas surgical procedures were performed in all patients, the type of the procedure varied; laparoscopic primary repair was performed in two patients and laparotomy in five patients. In the patients who underwent laparotomy, primary repair was performed in three patients, partial colon resection and end-to-end anastomosis in one patient, and loop colostomy in one patient. The patients were hospitalized for an average of 7.14 days. The patients who did not develop complications in the postoperative follow-up were discharged with full recovery.
Conclusion: Prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment of ICP is crucial to prevent morbidity and mortality.

Authors: Gökçen Gündoğmuş Ayşe , Koçyiğit Yasemin , Karadağ Hasan 
Published: December 2022

Objective: Considering the effects of self-esteem, eating attitudes and body satisfaction on obesity and bariatric surgery outcomes, psychiatric evaluation is important for the identification and treatment of psychopathology, improvement of self-esteem, eating attitudes and body satisfaction. In this study, it was aimed to determine the relation between eating behaviors, body dissatisfaction, self-esteem and psychological symptoms in patients seeking bariatric surgery. Our second aim was to determine whether depressive symptoms and anxiety had a mediating role in the relationship between body satisfaction and self-esteem and eating attitudes.
Material and Methods: The study included 200 patients. Patients’ data were retrospectively evaluated. Psychometric evaluation performed during the preoperative period included psychiatric examination and administration of the Beck Depression Inventory, Beck Anxiety Inventory, Rosenberg SelfEsteem Scale, Body-Cathexis Scale, and Dutch Eating Behaviors Questionnaire.
Results: There was a positive correlation between self-esteem and body satisfaction and a negative correlation between self-esteem and emotional eating (r= 0.160, p= 0.024; r= -0.261, p< 0.001 respectively). Body satisfaction had an effect on emotional eating mediated by depression and an effect on external and restrictive eating mediated by anxiety. Furthermore, anxiety mediated the relations between self-esteem and external and restrictive eating behaviors.
Conclusion: Our finding indicating that depression and anxiety have mediator effects on the relation between self-esteem, body dissatisfaction, and eating attitudes is significant since screening for these entities and their treatment is relatively more practical in clinical settings.
