Published: December 2022

Background:
It was observed that the severe acute respiratory syndrome-Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) virus is more transmissible in places that are more clustered and where mosquitoes breed in significant numbers. Therefore, we wanted to study the potential influence of mosquitoes in the COVID-19 transmission in the field settings.

Materials and Methods:
This research was applied in the Asir region of Saudi Arabia. A questionnaire survey was meted out to the quarantined participants diagnosed with the COVID-19 infection. Mosquito traps were located at places with the high rate of human vector contact. A total of 464 female mosquitos were screened for the SARS-CoV-2 S gene utilizing real time reverse transcriptase–polymerase chain reaction. In addition, blood-fed mosquitoes were tested through sequencing of the cytochrome b gene region to identify the source of blood meals.

Results:
People having low economic status and places with high population density, such as parks and malls, resulted in the individuals “high risk of being infected with the COVID-19 infection. Most of the collected blood-fed mosquitoes exhibited a high match-sequencing with human. All tested mosquitoes had not manifested any SARS-CoV-2S gene amplification.

Conclusion:
Our results highlight the association of low economic status of individuals and the individuals” behavior of frequently visiting parks, with an elevated risk of contracting the COVID-19 infection. Moreover, using a field experiment for the first time in Saudi Arabia, our data supported the theory that the SARS-CoV-2 virus cannot be transmitted through mosquitoes, either by blood meal or by mechanical transmission.
The role of prophylactic aspirin intake in reducing the risk of development of preeclampsia among nonhigh-risk primigravidas in two tertiary hospitals in Dasmariñas and Imus, Cavite
Authors: Limos Liezly Gayle F. , Nueva-Hipolito May M. 
Published: December 2022

BACKGROUND:
Pre-eclampsia is a multi-organ progressive disorder that is estimated to complicate 2 to 8% of pregnancies. Numerous studies on prophylactic aspirin intake among high-risk pregnant women has been established but studies involving low-risk primigravida women are limited.

OBJECTIVES:
To determine if prophylactic intake of aspirin will reduce the occurrence of pre-eclampsia among primigravida women with no identified comorbidities and to determine the incidence and association of identified secondary outcomes.

METHODOLOGY:
This retrospective cohort study was conducted from January 2018 to December 2020 in two (2) tertiary hospitals in the province of Cavite. Two hundred four (204) primigravida women with no identified co-morbidities and delivered to a singleton fetus, vaginally or operatively, were identified and included. In-patient and out-patient charts of primigravida women, with aspirin intake versus no aspirin intake, were reviewed. Primary outcome (pregnancy induced hypertension) and secondary outcomes (preterm delivery, small-for-gestational age infants, IUFD, HELLP syndrome and abruption placenta) were identified.

RESULTS:
The mean age of patients was 27.1 years and 25.9 years in the aspirin and non-aspirin group, respectively. In aspirin group, 4.9% of the patients developed pre-eclampsia versus 9.8% in non-aspirin group showing statistical significance. The effect of aspirin across other hypertensive disorders of pregnancy were noted to be the same. However, influence of aspirin with the average blood pressure on admission and secondary outcomes were not statistically significant.

CONCLUSION:
Prophylactic aspirin intake has a significant effect in preventing pre-eclampsia among non-high risk primigravida women but did not influence the average blood pressure on admission, development of preterm PIH, and development of the secondary outcomes.
Conventional versus hybrid knife endoscopic submucosal dissection in large colorectal laterally spreading tumors: A propensity score analysis
Authors: Yang Bin , Shen Jianhong , Zhong Wuxue , Han Huazhong , Lu Pinxiang , Jiang Fei 
Published: December 2022

Background:
Colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (CR-ESD) has become a promising treatment for laterally spreading tumors (LSTs), but is accompanied by great challenges. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CR-ESD with a hybrid knife, versus the conventional technique for LSTs ≥30 mm in diameter, and analyze the risk factors for piecemeal resection and perforation.

Methods:
Patients eligible for CR-ESD were divided into two groups according to the use of the hybrid knife (HK group) or the use of the conventional technique, with an interchange of injection and hook knife (C-group). We performed propensity score matching (PSM) to compare the HK group and the C-group. Risk predictors for perforation and piecemeal resection were identified.

Results:
PSM identified 61 (132 patients) and 61 (129 patients) patients in the C-group and the HK group, respectively. Resection speed was significantly faster in the HK group than in the C-group (18.86 vs. 13.33 mm2/min, P < 0.001). The rate of knife exchange was significantly lower in the HK group than in the C-group (1.6% vs. 49.2%, P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed that unfavorable locations, including the splenic flexure, hepatic flexure, or cecum, were predictive of piecemeal resection. The presence of severe fibrosis and a semilunar fold were independent risk factors for perforation.

Conclusions:
The use of a hybrid knife appears to increase CR-ESD resection speed. The indicators for piecemeal resection or perforation in CR-ESD identified herein might help to assess the technical difficulties of CR-ESD.
Acrofacial Dysostosis with Microtia-Anotia
Authors: Öreroglu Ali Riza , Üsçetin Ilker , Akan Mithat 
Published: December 2022

Microtia-anotia is a congenital anomaly of the ear encountered commonly by a plastic and reconstructive surgeon. Although it may be seen as an isolated condition, microtia-anotia may be part of a syndrome such as mandibulofacial synostosis. A very rare condition however is the preaxial acrofacial synostosis, or Nager syndrome (NS), with which the plastic and reconstructive surgeon may not be familiar. Less than 100 NS cases have been reported to date, mostly including major mandibulofacial anomalies. We hereby report the first case from the Mediterranean region of a late microtia-anotia exhibiting specific anomalies resembling a mild form of NS. Through systemic examination, we also identified in combination a cardiac anomaly (ventricular noncompaction cardiomyopathy) that has not been previously linked to this syndrome in the literature, hence the first report of this cardiac anomaly in NS.

Level of Evidence:
Level IV, case report.
The Attitudes of Plastic, Reconstructive, and Esthetic Surgery Residents toward Social Media Usage
Authors: Çagla Çiçek , Akkurt Mehmet , Filinte Gaye 
Published: December 2022

Aims:
Plastic, reconstructive, and esthetic surgeons and practitioners associated with medical tourism actively use social media platforms to disseminate or receive information on medical technologies and developments, professional news, and academic productions, as well as to advertise, promote, or even educate the public about their professions. The present study analyzes the perspectives of plastic, reconstructive, and esthetic surgery residents on social media use in this context.

Subjects and Methods:
A survey consisting of 14 multiple-choice questions was administered to plastic surgery residents who were continuing their specialty training.

Statistical Analysis:
Research data were evaluated using SPSS 20.0. Normality assumptions were checked for the variables, and cross tables and Chi-square statistics were used to evaluate the differences between groups. P = 0.05 or less was considered significant in all tests.

Results:
This study found that most plastic surgery residents did not have professional social media accounts, possibly owing to a hesitation to open a professional social media account during residency training. Consistent with the literature, most plastic surgery residents thought that social media use was a professional necessity that requires further training. Plastic surgeons must learn to use social media tools for patient education, advertising, and defense from inaccuracy. Formulating legal regulations in accordance with residents' attitudes has become a necessity in the changing world.

Conclusions:
Plastic surgeons lag behind in the ever-increasing competition for attention, and they must find a way of using social media tools for patient education, advertising, and defense from inaccuracy.

Authors: Shrestha Archana 
Published: December 2022

Background Implementation research (IR) is increasingly undertaken in the health field globally. This paper presents a scoping review of IR undertaken in Nepal.
Methods We conducted a scoping review of literature on IR in Nepal according to the PRISMA- ScR checklist. The eligibility criteria were defined as papers conducted in Nepal that focused on studies of programs or policies that emphasize targeting health interventions, and addressed at least some aspects of IR. We searched Embase, PubMed, and the Global Health: Science and Practice database for papers from January 1, 2015 through November 30, 2022 using Medical Subject Headings terms based on our eligibility criteria. We reviewed the full text of the final set of articles and extracted relevant information for inclusion in this review.
Results Twenty-three articles were included in the final stages for data extraction. The numbers of IR have increased over the years; the largest numbers were published in 2021. About 52% had a first author from Nepal, and 39% had a senior author from Nepal. About 52% were focused on non-communicable diseases. The objectives of the studies were diverse; most were conducted in understanding the factors that influenced implementation. Most of the studies were guided by IR theories or frameworks; and were done in collaboration with international partners. Only a few studied implementation strategies and implementation outcomes.
Conclusion The vast majority of the IR conducted in Nepal has focused on understanding the contextual facilitators and barriers to implementation; only a few studies have examined implementation strategies and implementation outcomes.
Modelos Cognitivos Idealizados:
Authors: MEDEIROS ALVARO MACHADO FLAVIA , Martins dos Reis Elizabeth 
Published: December 2022

A presente proposta tem como base abordagem cognitivista (LAKOFF, 1987), que traz como reflexão a atividade semântica cognitiva do Tradutor e Intérprete de Língua de Sinais (TILS) no contexto jurídico. A partir das questões semânticas que têm como um ponto de partida o processo da categorização humana, em que se observa a semântica cognitiva, desenvolvido na integração da capacidade de comunicação humana em diferentes contextos sociais. Com isso, o objetivo desse artigo é de dialogar sobre os Modelos Cognitivos Idealizados, a qual fundamenta que todo o significado depende de um conjunto de estímulos que são resultados de uma infinidade de motivações, cujas fontes podem ser as mais diversas, ou seja, podem ser àquelas que adquiridas na interação com a sociedade (LAKOFF, 1987; FELTES, 1992). Na tarefa do TILS, o desenvolvimento da compreensão do texto de partida para o texto de chegada requer habilidades para a tarefa da interpretação simultânea diante de termos-conceitos-jurídicos. Os resultados apresentam que o TILS necessita se apropriar de repertório linguístico especializado, para efeito e eficiência da tarefa da interpretação simultânea no contexto jurídico.

Authors: KAYMAZ Tugce , ÖNALAN Ebru , BURAN KAVURAN İlay , BERİLGEN GÜRGÖZE Ayşe , MÜNGEN Bülent 
Published: December 2022

Objective: Genes which are involved in immune response portray possible candidate genes in migraine. One of those genes is that myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) that plays an important role in mediating the complement cascade. The purpose of our study is to show the effect of MOG G511C (Val142Leu; rs2857766) polymorphism in migraine attack frequency.
Materials and Methods: In the cohort of 101 Turkish migraine patients and in a control group of 101 healthy subjects, MOG Val142Leu alleles’ distribution was examined. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) was carried out to genotype this polymorphism.
Results: Although MOG Leu allele frequency was determined as under-represented in migraine patients, any significant difference between the patient and control groups’ genotype, and allele frequencies were not obtained [OR=0.47 (0.21-1.08), p=0.053 for genotypes; OR=0.50 (0.23-1.11), p=0.060 for alleles]. However, a statistically significant relationship between MOG G511C (Val142Leu) polymorphism and the decreased migraine attack frequency was determined [OR=11.71 (1.32-103.77), p=0.013]. Val/Leu genotype frequency increrased in migraine patients with two or fewer attacks per month.
Conclusion: Migraine attack frequency might be related with MOG Val142Leu heterozygote genotype. So we think that MOG gene might be related to genetic susceptibility to migraine in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region.
Workplace bullying and its consequence to employee productivity in civil society organisations in Lira City, Uganda
Authors: Otema Opio Denis , Acanga Alfred Acanga , Mwesigwa David Mwesigwa 
Published: December 2022

Purpose: This study sought to investigate the consequence of workplace bullying on employee productivity in CSOs in Uganda. Consequently, three questions were answered, namely: what is the consequence of workplace bullying on employee attendance in civil society organizations? What is the consequence of workplace bullying on employee efficiency in civil society organization? And what is the consequence of workplace bullying on teamwork among employees in civil society organizations?
Methodology: This study adopted a literature review method of secondary data from available sources including academic manuscripts, and peer-reviewed journals.
Findings: Workplace bullying has negative implications on the productivity of employees, and by extension, negative implications on the productivity of organizations. Workplace bullying diminishes productivity of the organization by causing absenteeism, which deprives an organization of man-hours which should have been put into productivity. It leads to increased absenteeism among employees, which concurs with available studies which observed that the consequences of workplace bullying like absenteeism are liable to affect work performance. Workplace bullying can affect efficiency by altering work tasks and make them difficult or impossible. This way, workplace bullying slowdown work and thereby reduce employees’ productivity. In the same vein, bullying makes employees feel that they are not valued or respected, and as a consequence lose their motivation and become less engaged in work, thereby slowing down work pace and by extension, productivity of the organization.
Conclusion and recommendations: From the study, bullying contributes a small portion in the variations in slow down among employees in the selected organizations. While bullied employees disguise themselves to continue working, they waste a lot of time attempting to avoid the bully even if bullying does not contribute to significant amount of work slowdown per day, yet cumulative effects of that have negative ramifications on teamwork and employee productivity in general.
Unique contribution to policy and or practice: This study used the substantive theory to review the relationship between workplace and bullying and staff productivity. The study has shown significant influences of workplace bullying absenteeism and teamwork. The results validate the significance of the Substantive theory in studying workplace bullying and its influences on staff productivity. Consequently, management of international non-government organizations should not take workplace bullying lightly but should take it as something costly for organizations and therefore should be prevented or redressed by putting in place anti-bullying policies and measures. Also, CSOs should implement procedures for managing both the oppressors and sufferers of workplace intimidation.

Published: December 2022

Purpose: The study aimed to examine the relationship between Faith Based Organisations Strategies (FBOS) and Welfare of Street Children (WSC) in Lira City, specifically focusing on the effect of FBOS in terms of preventive strategies, rehabilitation strategies, outreach strategies and collaboration strategies on the WSC.
Methodology: The study adopted a descriptive study design, which employed a mixed method approach of both quantitative and qualitative methods. The study population consisted of 219 which included district and sub-county officials, Simple random sampling technique and purposive sampling, was used to select a sample size of 196 participants. The researcher used self-administered questionnaires to collect quantitative data, interview guide and focus group discussion guide to collect qualitative data. Descriptive statistics (mean, and standard deviation), and inferential statistics (correlation and regression) were used to analyse numerical data. Content analysis was used to analyse qualitative data from interviews to supplement quantitative data.
Findings: The results revealed a statistically significant positive relationship between FBOS and the WSC. The study also revealed that preventive Strategy had a significant effect on the WSC (β=0.061, P<0.01), rehabilitation (β=0.625, P<0.01), outreach strategy (β=0.096, P<0.01) and Collaborative strategy (β=0.086, P<0.01).
Conclusion: Based on the findings of this study, it was concluded that FBOS have a significant effect on the WSC in Lira City, northern Uganda.
Unique contribution to policy and/or practice: This study contributes an original and empirical-evidence of the relationship between FBOS and the WSC in Uganda. That is why the quest for improved WSC in Lira City calls for concerted engagement among both urban government actors and other non-state actors to mobilize local communities to embrace the FBOS so as to guarantee the WSC in Uganda.

Published: December 2022

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to find out the prevalence of suicide ideation among undergraduate students of the University of Cape Coast and the gender distribution of suicide ideation among them.
Methodology: This study was a quantitative one and it used the quasi-experimental research design, specifically, the pre-test, post-test and control group design. A total of 30 undergraduate students from four colleges of the University of Cape Coast in the Central Region of Ghana was non-randomly assigned to two treatment groups, Individual Psychology and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (IP and CBT) and one control group. Beck Scale for Suicide Ideation was used for the collection of data for the study. Descriptive Statistics such as frequencies and percentages were used to analyse the data.
Findings: Results showed that two out of every 15 UCC undergraduate students experience suicide ideation continuously and persistently. Again, the rate at which female students think suicidal, that is, have suicidal ideas, is higher than the male students. In other words, female undergraduate students of University of Cape Coast experience suicide ideation more than their male counterparts. It was concluded that suicide ideation is prevalent, 13.3%, among undergraduate students of UCC.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Policy and Practice: Based on the findings, it was recommended that constant screening of suicide ideation be made part of the University’s program and the Counselling Centre should be mandated to organise the screening exercise. This will help educate and create more awareness on suicide ideation and offer more people, per the screening, the opportunity to benefit from the therapies.

Authors: Singh Dilraj , Bhatia Harmanpreet 
Published: December 2022

Background: Learning is the on-going and continuous process through our lives , there are some learning which is done through exploring new ventures, thinking differently to solve a particular problem, some learnings are through experiments and demonstrations which cannot be taught in white and black, this is where the heuristics learning evolve and came into existence and it also help the teachers or educators to break the monotony of traditional teaching methods and let the student to swim in the ocean of knowledge and get to the shore with the best possible results to the problems. Objectives: This study is to find out the acceptability and enlist prominent attitude for the heuristic learning along with the major challenges faced by the faculty in implementation of same in hospitality education. Methodology: A descriptive cross –sectional design was adopted. The study was conducted in hospitality institutes pan India through online Google Forms in form of questionnaire. Respondents were the faculty members of the institutes which were approached by sending e-mails and through online survey. Total 210 respondents participated in survey. The analysis was done by using relative importance of index along with averages and percentages. Results: The most important attitude required by faculty for the implementation of heuristic methodology are the acceptance of unique solution of students (0.867) and after testing the solution correct knowledge should be imparted to the students (0.856) (relative index of importance). The acceptability of heuristic methodology among the faculty is on average level with response of (39%) use of heuristic methodology for giving inputs to students. Various challenges in implementation are the syllabus needs a major change. The initial set of skills and knowledge are required by the students (56%), completing the syllabus will be a challenge as all the topics in various subjects are not teachable with heuristic methodology (38%). Conclusion: Respondents have given their responses towards mild acceptability towards using heuristic methodology, on the other hand the issues of challenges faced and various attitude required are strongly reflected towards the heuristic education. The need of proper training and right king of changes in syllabus are must of the successful implementation of this methodology.
