Background: COVID-19 does not discriminate based on geography, ethnicity, disability status, age, or gender. COVID-19 can be stopped from entering schools and spreading among infected students and employees, while also limiting disruption and safeguarding students and staff from discrimination. Basic life support is one of the critical skills that have to be mastered via way of means of nursing college students earlier than sporting out clinical placement in hospitals Due to the constraints of the COVID-19 Pandemic, a web-based learning media was developed to make it easier for students to learn about basic life support from wherever they are.
Methods: This study is a comparative experimental study with a pretest-posttest design with a control group. Purposive sampling was utilized in this study.76 respondents participated in this study and were divided into two groups using the lottery method. The research instrument is form of questions about basic life support developed by the research team. Respondents were divided into 2 groups, namely the experimental group and the control group. The eperimental group was given action in the form of independent learning opportunities that were guided using the website while the control group was given treatment in the form of classical learning. Analysis techniques using t-tests.
Results: There was an increase in scores between the pretest and the posttest in both groups. The value of the experiment group increased more than that of the control group. The treatment group's score increased by 3.5 points, while the control group's score increased by 1.9 points. The Sig result was 0.00 based on the t-test analysis.
Conclusion: Web-Based learning increases nursing students' knowledge of basic life support during the COVID-19 Pandemic.

The incidence of HAIs is also associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality in hospitals. 37,000 deaths were recorded in Europe and 99,000 deaths in the United States due to HAIs, 18.5% in Latin America, 23.6% in Asia and 29.3% in Africa. Infection at Datu Beru Hospital Takengon. The type of research is descriptive qualitative. This research was conducted at Datu Beru Takengon Hospital, Jalan Qurrata Aini Kebayakan, Nunang Antara, Bebesen, Central Aceh Regency, Aceh. There were 12 informants in this study. The results showed that from interviews with key informants and supporting informants, the implementation had been running according to existing standards, although there were still some shortcomings. The conclusion of the study was that there were shortcomings from the 11 components of standard precautions: health workers did not use PPE according to the area and indications, hand washing compliance was not up to standard, some still wore jewelry, did not carry out 5 moments, facilities and infrastructure for hand washing were not adequate, room flow was not up to standard. PPI because there are some rooms that are still old buildings, waste sorting and transportation are correct, but the disposal of infectious waste still uses a third party because Datu Beru General Hospital does not yet have an independent incinerator, sorting and management of linen and laundry are good but the distribution and transportation of linen is still using the same and open trolley, Health checks and immunizations for hospital staff have not been carried out regularly.
Classification and Jet Power of Fermi Blazars
Authors: Zhang Lixia , Liu Yi , Fan Junhui 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
In this work, we compile a sample of 449 Fermi blazars with the luminosity of the broadline region, the black hole mass, the beam radio luminosity, and the jet power; obtain the beam power and the black hole spin; investigate the dividing line between BL Lacertae objects (BL Lacs) and flat-spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) to identify the discrepancies in their dominant mechanisms; and revisit the dependence of the jet power on the disk accretion luminosity, the black hole mass, and the black hole spin. We come to the following conclusions. (1) A boundary of log (L
BLR/L
Edd) = −3.14, separating the BL Lacs and the FSRQs, is obtained from the Bayesian analysis, which is consistent with the results from the literature. We employ the boundary to divide the blazar candidates of uncertain types into candidates for BL Lacs or FSRQs, and we find five changing-look blazars at the same time. (2) A strong correlation is found between black hole mass and intrinsic γ-ray luminosity, but a weaker correlation is found between black hole mass and observed γ-ray luminosity. The latter is weakened by jet effects: it is apparently weak for BL Lacs that have disordered amplification of the Doppler factor, since their mechanism is dominated by jets, while it is moderate for FSRQs, since their mechanism is dominated by accretion processes. (3) The jets of both FSRQs and BL Lacs are likely governed by the Blandford–Znajek mechanism.
Gaussian Decomposition of λ21 cm H i profiles, the Critical Ionization Velocity, and the Interstellar Helium Abundance
Authors: Verschuur G. L. , Schmelz J. T. 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
Following an established protocol of science—that results must be reproducible—we examine the Gaussian fits to Galactic λ21 cm (H i) emission profiles obtained by two seemingly complementary methods using data from the Leiden–Argentine–Bonn all-sky survey. One is based on the method used by Verschuur, the other by Nidever et al. (2008). The comparisons led to the identification of four problems that might arise when an algorithm is applied to huge databases without close monitoring: (1) different methods of calculating

measuring the goodness of fit; (2) an ultra-broad component found to imperfectly bridge the gap between low- and intermediate-velocity gas; (3) the lack of an imposed spatial coherence allowing different components to appear and disappear in profiles separated by a fraction of a beamwidth; and (4) multiple, fundamentally different solutions for profiles at both the north and south Galactic poles. Confirming evidence emerges from this study of an underlying component with a line width of an order 34 km s−1. If this feature is the result of the critical ionization velocity effect acting on interstellar helium, it can be used to calculate its interstellar abundance. Analysis of H i profiles in an area in the southern Galactic hemisphere using multitelescope data gives a helium abundance of 0.094 ± 0.035, in excellent agreement with the accepted cosmic abundance of 0.085.
Evolution of AM CVn Binaries with White Dwarf Donors
Authors: Chen Hai-Liang , Chen Xuefei , Han Zhanwen 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
The evolution and the stability of mass transfer of CO+He white dwarf (WD) binaries are not well understood. Observationally they may emerge as AM CVn binaries and are important gravitational wave (GW) emitters. In this work, we have modeled the evolution of double WD binaries with accretor masses of 0.50–1.30 M
⊙ and donor masses of 0.17–0.45 M
⊙ using the detailed stellar evolution code mesa. We find that the evolution of binaries with same donor masses but different accretor masses is very similar and binaries with same accretor masses but larger He donor masses have larger maximum mass transfer rates and smaller minimum orbital periods. We also demonstrate that the GW signal from AM CVn binaries can be detected by spaceborne GW observatories, such as LISA and TianQin. There is a linear relation between the donor mass and gravitational wave frequency during the mass transfer phase. In our calculation, all binaries can have dynamically stable mass transfer, which is very different from previous studies. The threshold donor mass of Eddington-limited mass transfer for a given accretor WD mass is lower than previous studies. Assuming that a binary may enter a common envelope if the mass transfer rate exceeds the maximum stable burning rate of He, we provide a new criterion for double WDs surviving mass transfer, which is below the threshold of the Eddington limit. Finally, we find that some systems with oxygen–neon (ONe) WDs in our calculation may evolve into detached binaries consisting of neutron stars and extremely low-mass He WDs, and further ultracompact X-ray binaries.

Authors: Kong Miao , Han Yuanyuan , Li Junhong , Feng Xueliang , Zhang Lijun , Zhang Hong 
Published: August 2022

Purpose:
To report the incidence and outcomes of pulled-in-two syndrome during strabismus surgery and investigate the clinical features and management of the disease.

Methods:
The medical records of patients who underwent strabismus surgery and developed pulled-in-two syndrome between July 2013 and October 2020 were reviewed retrospectively. The demographic characteristics, intraoperative details (including surgery type and management), and subsequent and final outcomes were extracted from the records.

Results:
Of the 11,824 strabismus surgeries during the study period, 4 cases of pulled-in-two syndrome were documented, accounting for an overall incidence of 0.034%. The average age of the patients with pulled-in-two syndrome was 61.75 ± 8.99 years. All 4 patients were women; 2 had abducens nerve palsy and the other 2 had myopic strabismus fixus. The inferior rectus muscle was involved in 1 patient and the medial rectus muscle was involved in 3 patients. All of the involved extraocular muscle was lost. One patient achieved orthotropia, and the others were undercorrected after the surgery.

Conclusions:
Pulled-in-two syndrome is one of the rarest and most severe complications of strabismus surgery. Cranial nerve palsy, advanced age, prior surgery, thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy, and degenerative conditions of the extraocular muscle are risk factors for pulled-in-two syndrome. Therefore, the prevention of pulled-in-two syndrome in patients with these risk factors should be investigated further.

Authors: Tiwari Aseem Kumar , Luthra Aanchal Sunil , Arora Dinesh , Mehta Swati Pabbi , Aggarwal Geet , Sood Nitin , Yadav Satyaprakash , Upadhyay Anand Prakash 
Published: August 2022

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
Enumeration of hematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC) is vital to decide the time to initiate harvest (TTIH) and adequacy of harvest dose (AOHD). Standard of care used for HPC enumeration is flowcytometric CD34+ enumeration, but it is expensive, time-consuming and requires skilled staff to perform the test. Alternatively, HPC-count by advanced automated cell analyzer is cheaper, quicker, and easy-to-perform test. Our objective was to find a correlation of HPC count with CD34+ enumeration in leukapheresis.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:
An observational, prospective study was conducted in the year 2018–2019. A total of 126 samples were included in the study, the peripheral blood (PB) group comprised of 42samples and apheresis group of 84 samples. The samples were simultaneously tested for CD34+ expression and complete blood count which included the HPC count, white blood cells (WBC) count and multinational corporation (MNC) count and correlation analysis was performed with CD34+ flowcytometric count. The cut-off of PB HPC count for the target dose of 5 × 106 CD34+ cells/kg was established using Receiver Operator Curve.

RESULTS:
The correlation coefficient (r) of HPC with CD34+ count was 0.617 and 0.699 for PB group and apheresis group sample respectively, which was statistically significant. The correlation with MNC and WBC count was not very significant. A cut-off value of PB HPC was established to be 66 HPC/ml with a positive predictive value of 94.12%. The cost of CD34 + flow cytometric enumeration was six times that of HPC enumeration by analyzer.

CONCLUSION:
The HPC count is a cheaper, rapid and easy test and can be clinically applied to predict TTIH and AOHD but requires more studies to validate its efficacy in clinical use.

Published: August 2022

Background
Angiography is a highly effective invasive method for diagnosing coronary artery diseases but can lead to certain psychological problems such as anxiety.

Aim
To investigate the effect of foot reflexology therapy on anxiety level among patients undergoing coronary angiography.

Research hypothesis
H: patients undergoing coronary angiography who will receive the foot reflexology therapy will reveal lesser mean anxiety scores than before the intervention.

Design
A quasi-experimental research design was used.

Setting
This study was conducted at two selected critical care units affiliated to Cairo University Hospitals.

Sample
A purposive sample of 40 adult patients undergoing coronary angiography was recruited throughout 8 months.

Tools
Two tools were utilized to collect data: first, demographic characteristics and medical data, and second, state-trait anxiety inventory.

Results
There were significant statistical differences in mean anxiety scores in the reflexology study group before intervention, immediately, and 30 min after intervention (f=13.32/P=0.00). So, there was a significant decrease in anxiety scores immediately after intervention. Moreover, significant differences were detected among the studied patients’ anxiety mean scores according to their age 30 min after intervention (0.00); the age categories between 40 and 49 years showed less anxiety at this point of time. Finally, no significant statistical correlations whatsoever were found between selected demographic variables and mean anxiety scores at all time series of intervention.

Conclusion
It can be concluded that, foot reflexology was an effective method to decrease anxiety among patients undergoing coronary angiography.

Epidemiology of Clostridium (Clostridioides) difficile Infection in Southeast Asia
Authors: Khun Peng An , Riley Thomas V. 
Published: August 2022

ABSTRACT.
This review describes the current understanding of Clostridium (Clostridioides) difficile infection (CDI) in southeast Asia regarding the prevalence of CDI, C. difficile detection methods, antimicrobial susceptibility profiles, and the potential significance of a One Health approach to prevention and control. Our initial focus had been the Indochina region, however, due to limited studies/surveillance of CDI in Indochina, other studies in southeast Asian countries and neighboring Chinese provinces are presented here for comparison. Clostridium (Clostridioides) difficile infection is one of the most common causes of hospital-acquired gastroenteritis worldwide. Since its discovery as a cause of pseudomembranous colitis in 1978, C. difficile-related disease has been more prevalent in high-income rather than low-income countries. This may be because of a lack of knowledge and awareness about the significance of C. difficile and CDI, resulting in underreporting of true rates. Moreover, the abuse of antimicrobials and paucity of education regarding appropriate usage remain important driving factors in the evolution of CDI worldwide. The combination of underreporting of true CDI rates, along with continued misuse of antimicrobial agents, poses an alarming threat for regions like Indochina. C. difficile ribotype (RT) 027 has caused outbreaks in North America and European countries, however, C. difficile RT 017 commonly occurs in Asia. Toxin A-negative/toxin B-positive (A−B+) strains of RT 017 have circulated widely and caused outbreaks throughout the world and, in southeast Asia, this strain is endemic.
Case Report: Multiple Scalp Abscesses due to Mycobacterium abscessus Infection Following Triamcinolone Injection in an Immunocompetent Person
Authors: Mohanty Monalisa , Mishra Baijayantimala , Sirka Chandra Sekhar , Mohapatra Prasanta Raghab 
Published: August 2022

ABSTRACT.
Mycobacterium abscessus complex is a group of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM). The NTM may involve skin, soft tissue, and other organs like the eye and central nervous system. Clinically may mimic multidrug resistance. Here, we present a case of a 29‐year man with a history of multiple scalp swellings with mild symptoms. He had undergone multiple triamcinolone acetonide injections on his scalp to stop hair fall and baldness 2 months prior. As there was a history of injections on the scalp and lesions associated with minimal symptoms, we suspected the possibility of NTM and fungal infections. As a part of treatment and obtaining a sample for investigation, lesions were aspirated with a needle. The swellings contained gelatinous material, which was sent for microscopic examination, and revealed the presence of acid‐fast bacilli (AFB). Xpert MTB/RIF assay was negative for mycobacteria (MTB complex), but culture revealed NTM was identified as M. abscessus complex by line probe assay. Based on the diagnosis, the patient was treated with an injection of amikacin, moxifloxacin, and azithromycin. The lesions improved. The patient has completed over a year of follow-up with no recurrence noted. Mycobacterium abscessus, a rapidly growing NTM, has been occasionally reported to cause cutaneous soft tissue infection when injected with nonsterile medicine or needles. Therefore, a high index of suspicion for NTM infection is warranted in patients with cutaneous scalp abscess following scalp injections for hair loss.
