Published: September 2023

Background
Recent studies have shown growing concern for refeeding syndrome (RFS) among patients suffering from other medical conditions, although the exact incidence in this population is unknown. RFS occurs with the rapid reintroduction of calories to severely malnourished patients. It becomes critical for clinicians to have a high incidence of suspicion for prompt diagnosis and appropriate management to keep them alive if the malnutrition does not take their lives.

Case presentation
We report a case of a 53-year-old man with an 8-year history of schizophrenia and a 3-month history of poor feeding. He was admitted on account of refusal to feed or drink for two weeks prior to presentation. As a result, he was severely malnourished, and we started refeeding while dealing with his psychotic symptoms. He gained about 2kg within a week of admission, but that was fraught with metabolic derangements, which included, but were not limited to, hypophosphatemia, hypomagnesaemia, and hypocalcaemia. We revised his diagnosis to RFS in schizophrenia and managed it as such.

Conclusion
Diagnosis of RFS is based on a constellation of electrolyte deficiencies and clinical presentation as there are no agreed biomarkers. Unfortunately, one of the cardinal electrolyte deficiencies, hypophosphatemia, does not have readily available formulations for its correction, and this can lead to neurological, cardiovascular, and other complications, including sudden death. Delay in diagnosis worsens the prognosis, and the intuitive desire to feed a starved patient zealously leads them to death.

Objective: Perception of pain at IUD insertion is one of the main barriers of its uptake. Several pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions have been studied but currently there is no consensus on the pain management at IUD insertion. The study aim was to compare the effectiveness of counselling only, 10% lidocaine spray of the cervix and 100mg suppository diclofenac in reducing pain at IUD insertion.
Methodology: A prospective study of 99 respondents were randomized into 3 study arms; suppository diclofenac, lidocaine spray and counselling only in a ratio of 1:1:1. All participants had a baseline counselling: while those in the diclofenac arm were given 100mg diclofenac suppository 30 minutes before the procedure, those in the 10% lidocaine spray arm were given 4 pumps on the cervix before the insertion.
A 10cm- Visual Analog Scale was used to assess the
pain experienced during and after IUD insertion. Chi-square test, one-way ANOVA and a Post-Hoc test were used for the statistical analysis. P value of < 0.05 and confidence interval of 95% were used.
Results: Suppository diclofenac was superior to counselling only at speculum insertion, tenaculum application, uterine sounding, IUD placement, immediately and 5 minutes after procedure. Lidocaine spray of the cervix was also superior to counselling only throughout the procedure and up to 4 hours post procedure. Lidocaine spray of the cervix was superior to suppository diclofenac at 5 minutes and 4 hours after procedure.
Conclusion: Lidocaine spray (10%) of cervix is more effective compared to 100mg Diclofenac Sodium and Counselling only in reducing pain at IUD insertion.

Background and Aim: The early stage of childhood is a crucial period that significantly impacts a child's learning and growth trajectory. Research has shown a strong connection between cognitive ability, developmental milestones during this phase, and future outcomes in adolescence and adulthood. Therefore, it is imperative for preschool learning programs to prioritize age-appropriate and holistic development. To enhance the intellectual capabilities of preschoolers, an integrated learning activity program was implemented and analyzed for its effectiveness in improving young learners' intellectual and other developmental factors.
Material and Methods: This study used pre- and post-test experimental designs. Through a multi-stage random sampling procedure, 113 preschoolers were chosen from five sub-district centers in Nai Faai, Nai Sineun, Ban Lao, Tha Hinong, and Huen. Developmental Assessment Scales, developed by the researcher, were used to compare cognitive abilities and development levels of children aged 24, 36, and 48 months before and after the 8-week Integrated learning program. The reliability of the scales was 0.85, 0.80, and 0.83, respectively. The t-test was employed for comparison analysis.
Results: The results indicated that the motor skills, language, problem-solving, and personal-social awareness of preschoolers aged 24, 36, and 48 months significantly improved at the .01 level after participating in the integrated learning activities.
Conclusions: Integrated learning activities could effectively support and enhance intellectual capacities and age-appropriate development.
Recognition of the Right, as a Ground to Acquire Property Rights of the Illegally Occupied Plots of Land
Authors: Kipshidze Shalva 
Published: September 2023

The constitution of Georgia, article 19, stipulates the universal right to ownership, acquisition, alienation, and inheritance of property. The right to own property is a pillar to the modern democratic society development, on which it is based economic freedom and stable civil turnover. According to the established practice of the Constitutional Court of Georgia, ’’The constitutional-legal guarantee of property rights includes the obligation to create a legal base that ensures the practical realization of the right to own property and makes it possible to accumulate property through the purchase of the property."
According to Georgian law, one type of property acquisition is the recognition of property rights to illegally occupied plots of land in the absence of a document certifying the lawful possession (use) of land.
The purpose of this article is to discuss the recognition of the right as a basis for acquiring ownership to illegally occupied plots of land. To do this, logical analysis is used along with the presentation of the issue's informational and cognitive aspects and discussion of the judicial practice.

Published: September 2023

Background: Preeclampsia is one of the hypertensive disorders in pregnancy that contributes significantly to maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality, with the impact felt more in developing countries. It is characterized by endothelial dysfunction and vasospasm of vessels which can be observed by an ocular fundal examination. The aim of this study was to determine the ocular fundus findings of women with preeclampsia.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional study, carried out at the University of Benin Teaching Hospital involving a total of 220 pregnant women. The women were divided into two groups of 110 pregnant women (A&B).Their Age and Gestational age was cross-matched and retinopathy graded according to Keith and Wagner classification. Group A was made up of Preeclamptic women and Group B was made up of healthy pregnant women. Visual acuity was measured using Snellens’ chart, and the fundus was examined with direct ophthalmoscope.
Results: This showed that the retinal changes observed in the preeclamptic women were associated with their age (P = 0.009), gestational age (P = 0.044), blood pressure (P = 0.001), Proteinuria (P = 0.001), Severity of the disease (P = 0.001), visual acuity (P = 0.035) as well as with the visual symptoms (P = 0.001) but not statistically significant with the gravida (P = 0.799).
Conclusion: Our study highlights the importance of timely ophthalmoscopy which helps to assess severity of disease (pre-eclampsia) which affects the decision of induction of delivery to predict and prevent possible complications which in turn immensely helps in judicious management of disease. Also, the study revealed that preeclamptic women who are multigravida are more likely to have retinopathy than primigravida.

Published: September 2023

Background: Breast’s Invasive Ductal Carcinoma (IDC), which is the commonest type of malignancy in females worldwide, can be characterized using immunohistochemistry in view of personalized cancer therapy. In this study, we aimed to determine the pattern of immunohistochemical profiles of IDC using oestrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), human epidermal growth factor 2 receptor (HER2) and proliferative index (Ki-67) biomarkers in our tertiary healthcare facility in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria given the dearth of its data in our environment.
Materials and methods: We carried out a retrospective hospital-based immunohistochemical study of archival IDC tissue blocks over a four- and half-year period. Using systematic random sampling method, 64 formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) IDC tissue blocks were selected for this study. We carried out immunohistochemical evaluation using ER, PR, HER2 and Ki-67 biomarkers. Subsequently, we presented the results and classification schemes as text, tables, graphs, and photomicrographs.
Results: We found that the proportion of expressions were ER-negative (88.7%), PR-negative (87.3%), HER2-negative (68.3%) and Ki-67 (<20%) being 83.6% respectively. The immunohistochemical-based classification which was done using combined immunohistochemical profiles of ER/PR/HER2 and ER/PR/HER2/Ki-67 biomarkers respectively, revealed five immunohistochemical-based subtypes. These subtypes were ER-positive luminal A (ER+/±PR+/HER2-) [5.56%], ER-positive luminal B (ER+/±PR+/HER2+) [5.56%], HER2-overexpression (ER-/±PR+/HER2+) [16.66%], Triple negative (ER-/PR-/HER2-) [66.67%] and Unclassified subtypes (ER-/PR+/HER2-) [5.56%]. Furthermore, these five subtypes were further subcategorized into low (Ki-67 <20%) and high (Ki-67 ≥20%) proliferation subtypes accordingly.
Conclusion: The commonest pattern of immunohistochemical profile expression of IDC in Uyo was found to be the Triple negative subtype.

Published: September 2023

Background: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is a disease of epidemic proportions and many patients are at a great risk of premature mortality and complication of atherothrombotic disorders affecting coronary, cerebral and peripheral arterial trees. Increased Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor Type 1 inhibits fibrinolysis and predicts cardiovascular risk in those living with Type 2 Diabetes. This study aimed to determine the effect of antidiabetic treatment on haemostatic and fibrinolytic parameters among Type 2 Diabetic subjects in Ilorin.
Methods: This was a comparative cross-sectional study involving 78 Type 2 diabetic patients, (39 treatment naïve, 39 treatment experienced). Full blood count was performed using Sysmex XP 300 while Prothrombin time was determined using one stage test of Owren. Activated partial thromboplastin time was determined by method of Proctor and Rapaport. Fibrinogen and Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor type-1 were assayed using AssayMax Human Fibrinogen ELISA and AssayMax Human PAI-1 ELISA kit. Data Analysis was done using SPSS version 25.0.
Results: Mean PAI-1 levels were significantly higher in treatment naïve diabetics when compared to treatment experienced diabetics (2.44 ±2.57 vs 2.51±1.47 ng/ml p=0.002) as were fibrinogen levels (434.65±366.15 vs 482.24± 299.64mg /dl; p = 0.048). PAI -1 levels were lowest among diabetics treated with Metformin + DPP4 inhibitors, while fibrinogen levels were lowest among those treated with Metformin + sulfonylurea combination.
Conclusion: Oral hypoglycaemic treatment, combination therapy in particular, improves fibrinolysis in type 2 diabetics thereby reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.
