Abstract
Background
Attractive targeted sugar baits (ATSBs) control sugar-feeding mosquitoes with oral toxicants, and may effectively complement core malaria interventions such as insecticide-treated nets even where pyrethroid-resistance is widespread. The technology is particularly efficacious in arid areas. However, their performance remains poorly-understood in tropical areas with year-round transmission, and where the abundant vegetation constitutes competitive sugar sources for mosquitoes. This study compared the efficacies of ATSBs (active ingredient: 2% boric acid) in controlled settings with different vegetation densities.
Methods
Potted mosquito-friendly plants were introduced inside semi-field chambers (9.6m by 9.6m each) to simulate densely-vegetated, sparsely-vegetated, and bare sites without any vegetation (two chambers/category). All chambers had volunteer-occupied huts. Laboratory-reared Anopheles arabiensis females were released nightly (200/chamber) and host-seeking mosquitoes recaptured using human landing catches outdoors (8.00pm – 9.00pm) and CDC-light traps indoors (9.00pm – 6.00am). Additionally, resting mosquitoes were collected indoors and outdoors each morning using Prokopack aspirators. The tests included a “before-and-after” set-up (with pre-ATSBs, ATSB and post-ATSB phases per chamber), and a “treatment vs. control” set-up (where similar chambers had ATSBs or no ATSBs). All tests lasted 84 trap-nights.
Results
In the initial tests when all chambers had no vegetation, the ATSBs reduced outdoor-biting by 69.7%, indoor-biting by 79.8% and the resting mosquitoes by 92.8%. In tests evaluating impact of vegetation, the efficacy of ATSBs against host-seeking mosquitoes was high in bare chambers (outdoors: 64.1% reduction; indoors: 46.8%) but modest or low in sparsely-vegetated (outdoors: 34.5%; indoors: 26.2%) and densely-vegetated chambers (outdoors: 25.4%; indoors: 16.1%). Against resting mosquitoes, the ATSBs performed modestly across settings (non-vegetated: 37.5% outdoors and 38.7% indoors; sparsely-vegetated: 42.9% outdoors and 37.5% indoors; densely-vegetated: 45.5% outdoors and 37.5% indoors). Vegetation significantly reduced the efficacy of ATSBs against outdoor-biting and indoor-biting (P < 0.001), but not resting mosquitoes.
Conclusion
While vegetation can influence the performance of ATSBs, the devices remain modestly efficacious in sparsely-vegetated and densely-vegetated settings. Higher efficacies may occur in places with minimal or completely no vegetation, but such environments are naturally unlikely to sustain Anopheles populations nor malaria transmission in the first place. Field studies therefore remain necessary to validate the efficacies of ATSBs in the tropics.
What Do Medical Students Want From a Mentor?
Authors: Minor Suzanne , Bonnin Rodolfo 
Published: September 2022

Introduction: The medical education literature lacks a uniform definition of mentoring. Mentoring relationships benefit the mentor and mentee. Mentoring roles include coach, advisor, teacher, counselor, and sponsor in the setting of mutual trust toward impacting psychosocial and career functions for the mentee. Mentoring helps improve underrepresented minority medical student performance. Medical students value mentoring relationships. Student mentees note a positive influence on career planning and research and saw mentors as counselors, idea providers, and role models. Medical students’ varied goals and development call for personalized, flexible mentoring.
Methods: This study sought to expand the current understanding of medical student mentoring. We emailed a voluntary Qualtrics survey to second-, third-, and fourth-year medical students at the Florida International University (FIU) Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine asking, “What do you want from a mentor (choose all that apply)?” Multiple choice options were constructed based upon literature search. We conducted one-way analysis of variance and Tukey’s test to identify whether mentoring preferences differed by student academic year.
Results: Of 363 students, 171 responded (47% response rate). Top-rated responses included honest feedback, responsiveness, and professional connections or networking opportunities.
Discussion: Student desire for honest feedback from mentors was prioritized, affirming the lack of need for impression management in the mentoring relationship. This investigation will be useful for specific mentoring relationships, helping to trigger discussion regarding specific mentoring hopes and training mentors.
Social Influence, Religiosity, and Salesperson Service on Saving Intention in Islamic Banks: The Mediating Role of Perceived Ease of Use of Technology
Authors: Haryanto Aris Tri , Wulandari Fitri 
Published: September 2022

Research on the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) in the context of Islamic banks management has been conducted for years. However, studies investigating the mediating role of perceived ease of use of technology on saving intention in Islamic banks by considering social influence, religiosity, and salesperson service still require more paucity of evidence. This study adopted the TPB and Perceived Behavior Control (PBC). Purposive sampling was used to select 250 respondents who were customers of Islamic banks in Surakarta municipality, Indonesia. The data were analyzed by using the Structural Equation Model (SEM) with SPSS AMOS 22. The results indicate that social influence, religiosity, and salesperson service have a positive and significant impact on saving intentions in Islamic banks. With partial mediating results, perceived ease of use of technology mediates the effect of social influences on saving intention in Islamic banks. Meanwhile, the role of perceived ease of use of technology in mediating social influence on saving intentions is ineffective. Salesperson service has the biggest effect on saving intentions since they are directly interacting with customers. The results contribute to providing fruitful insights to sharia banks that sales person service and religiosity are two crucial factors determining the consumers’ satisfaction.

Authors: Brungardt Joseph G. , Cooke-Barber Jo , Tiao Greg , Hammill Adrienne M. , Ricci Kiersten , Patel Manish , Dasgupta Roshni 
Published: September 2022

Background: Intra-abdominal lymphatic malformations are rare
entities without a clear consensus on management or prognosis. These
malformations are medically and surgically complex and often require a
sophisticated, multi-disciplinary approach to treatment.
Methods: A single quaternary institutional, retrospective chart
review between January 2000-December 2019 was performed on all patients
with an initial diagnosis of a non-solid organ intra-abdominal lymphatic
malformation. Demographics, presentation, treatment, and outcome were
reviewed. Results: 24 patients were identified, 62.5% were
male. Median age at time of diagnosis was 2.5 years old, 33% were
present at birth, 50% presented before 2 years old, and 29% presented
≥10 years of age. 75% were lymphatic (majority macrocystic), 20.8%
were mixed lymphatic-venous malformations (LVM). 54% had other
associated lymphatic or vascular malformations including 4 patients with
PIK3CA-Related Overgrowth Spectrum (PROS), 3 with Generalized Lymphatic
Anomaly, and 2 with Capillary Venous Lymphatic malformation (CVLM).
Patients most often presented with abdominal pain (50%). 95.8%
required an intervention. 87.5% were managed initially with
sclerotherapy. Most interventions were performed for abdominal symptoms
either before three years of age or during adolescence. 41.7% underwent
laparoscopic or open surgery. 8.3% underwent surgery as their primary
therapy. Conclusion: Intra-abdominal lymphatic malformations
have a bimodal distribution pattern of presentation; shortly after birth
and again at puberty. Most patients present with abdominal symptoms and
have other associated vascular anomalies. MRI appears to be the most
accurate modality for treatment planning. Interventional procedures such
as sclerotherapy and medical therapy with sirolimus are safe and
effective and should be considered first line therapies. Surgical
resection is often required when the diagnosis is in question or when
more conservative therapies are no longer efficacious.

Abstract

Background
Paraneoplastic pemphigus is an autoimmune skin and mucosal disorder, rarely associated with solid malignancies, with devastating impact.

Patients and methods
Herein, we report the case of a middle-aged patient who presented with recalcitrant stomatitis and was ultimately diagnosed with advanced-stage cervical cancer.

Results
Despite the prompt initiation of immunosuppressive medications, in parallel with systemic therapy for her underlying neoplasm, she eventually died within 10 months.

Conclusions
Considering its heterogeneous clinicopathological and immunological manifestations, paraneoplastic pemphigus remains a genuine diagnostic challenge, whereas its abysmal prognosis highlights the need of additional effective immunosuppressants.

Miliary Tuberculosis in Immunocompromised Patient Induced by Imatinib and Steroid
Authors: Fermada Randa , Fauzar Fauzar , Kurniati Roza , Wahid Irza 
Published: September 2022

Miliary tuberculosis occurs due to the hematogenous spread of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis from the primary complex. The use of steroid and cytotoxic drugs increases the incidence of miliary tuberculosis. Typical manifestations of miliary tuberculosis is snowstorm appearance seen on chest x-ray and evidence of tuberculosis microorganism from the microbiological examination. It has been reported a 33 years old male patient was admitted to the hospital due to breathlessness, chronic coughing, fever, anorexia, weight loss and night sweating with a "damp shadow sign". Due to chronic myelogenous leukemia and autoimmune hemolytic anemia, the patient is known under imatinib and steroid therapy. There was no specific sign found from the physical examination. Chest x-ray showed snowstorm appearance. The patient underwent GeneXpert MTB/RIF, with the result low MTB detected. The patient was treated with a 2(HRZE)/4(HR) tuberculosis drugs regimen. Imatinib and steroid therapy was discontinued. 2-4 weeks of steroid usage with a daily dose equivalent to prednisone 15 mg increases the risk of activating a latent tuberculosis infection. Imatinib affects the response of T cells to Mycobacterium, thereby triggering tuberculosis reactivation. In this case, the diagnosis has been made from typical manifestations of tuberculosis, snowstorm appearance from the chest x-ray, and low MTB detected from GeneXpert MTB/RIF. It has been recommended to detect latent tuberculosis infection before using steroid and cytotoxic drugs.Keywords: imatinib, miliary tuberculosis, steroid

Preoperative anxiety is frequently correlated with anesthesia procedures, resulting in the anesthesiologist being the most suitable person to decrease the patient's anxiety through effective doctor–patient communication during pre–anesthesia visits. During anxiety, one of the body responses is the release of epinephrine to the blood vessel resulting in increased blood pressure. Objectives: To knew the correlation between pre-anesthesia visit anxiety and blood pressure before anesthesia procedure. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design that was conducted at Universitas Sumatera Utara General Hospital from September until October 2019. The sample was collected by consecutive sampling techniques, which meet inclusion and exclusion criteria. This study used primary data then was analyzed using Fisher’s Exact Test. Results: From 67 patients going through elective surgery, there are 41 patients (61,2%) with mild anxiety, 17 patients (25,4%) with moderate anxiety, and nine people (13,4%) with severe anxiety. There is no significant correlation (p>0,05) between anxiety with sex, types of anesthesia, PS ASA and heart rate. There is a significant correlation (p<0,05) between anxiety with blood pressure and types of surgery. Conclusion: There is a correlation between anxiety during the pre-anesthesia visit with blood pressure before anesthesia procedures.Keywords: anesthesia, anxiety, blood pressure, pre-anesthesia visit
Al_aathan almarkazi "The Central Calling" A Fiqhia Study
Authors: Arab Abdulaziz Saud M 
Published: September 2022

One of the recent matters that has arisen currently and has not occurred before as a result of technology, the expansion of cities and their plenty of mosques what is so called Al athan al markzi (central calling to prayer) or Al athan al mwhad (unified calling to prayer). It is found in many Islamic countries and it differs from what it is known as the recorded athan (recorded calling to prayer). The present study titled "Central Athan: A juridical study” stems from notion of interacting within the recent trend issues, dealing with the development in technology and science as well as presenting the juridical opinion. It answers the following questions:

Does the central calling to prayer oppose the Islamic law or compatible with its purposes?
Will the central calling to prayer contribute to find an answer to the discrepancy of calling to prayer times of some mosques within the same spot?
Will the central calling to prayer be a solution for the shortage and the incompetence of some Muzzens (callers to prayer?

I adapted the description approach for conceptualizing the central calling to prayer and revealing its essence; and I adapted the analytical approach for the analysis of jurists’ sayings and revealing the trend case.
