Published: July 2022

Government is an organization that has full responsibility for the improvement of public service quality. Consequently, service becomes the prior task of the organization’s officials as civil and public servants. There are 197 licenses and non-licensed public services. Therefore, it is important to maintain and improve service quality continuously. Meanwhile, the existing service quality hasn’t shown significant results. It can be viewed from public complaints on the publication process of the governor’s recommendation of land use in the North Bandung Region. Yet, there was a lot of field control that its implementation was irrelevant to the recommendation. Complaints, indictments, and inappropriateness recommendations in the field need to be minimized in order to optimize service quality and control conducted by the West Java Provincial Government on the publication process of the governor’s recommendation of land use in the North Bandung Region. Accordingly, the researcher would like to conduct further study on how Service Quality and Control of Governor’s Recommendation of Land Use in North Bandung Region performed by the West Java Provincial Government, as well as to study strategies that can be applied in order to improve service quality. This research applied qualitative study using the snowball technique to objects of study, i.e. public service administrators; public service customers; public service observers, primarily those who are involved in the legalization of the governor’s recommendation of land use in the North Bandung Region. The data were obtained through interviews and deep analysis using triangulation observers. The research of the study reveals that the inconsistency of service quality is influenced by 10 dimensions, i.e. tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, courtesy, credibility, security, access, communication, and understanding of the consumer. On the other hand, environment control, risk assessment, control activities, information, and communication, yet monitoring control are determinant factors in controlling the governor’s recommendation of land use in the North Bandung Region. It is done by applying strategies that implement technology, innovation, and operation approach. From the research, it is found new dimensions, are: institutional coordination, supervision, collaboration, prosecution, and policy diversification through GSMALL Collaboration Model (Government, Society, Media, Academic, and Law Enforcement).
20 Puntos clave para entender la mortífera decadencia del capitalismo
Authors: Piqueras Infante Andrés 
Published: July 2022

Since 2008, at the International Crisis Observatory, we have been working on the recurring structural crises of capitalism, their profound reasons, in order to be able to specify and explain its current systemic quagmire, which for us is nothing more than a symptom of its degenerative phase (“senile capitalism” Amin called it), tenden-tially terminal, without “terminal” necessarily meaning “imminent”. To locate ourselves in this trend, it is necessary to show that the conditions of degeneration are becoming more acute and that the development of the productive forces increasingly gives way to destructive forces, with the consequent decline of the whole of capitalist civilization. Dilution of value, social and environmental destruction, collapse of societies... In this article I intend to expose in the clearest and simplest way possible some of the processes that explain all this, as well as the conclusions or implications that are attached to them. I will do it in 20 points, for whose greater depth and exposition of data I have to refer at least to some of my previous works on the matter (Piqueras, 2014, 2017a, 2017b, 2018 and 2022, with its corresponding bibliography – and also that of the rest of the team-). I try to synthesize, in the most didactic way possible, some of the most relevant processes and factors for the analysis of the current phase of capitalism.
En este artículo se analizan las tendencias autodestructivas del capitalismo así como sus consecuencias y los desórdenes mundiales de su decadencia. Piqueras realiza una detallada exposición de los factores perturbadores más relevantes de este fenómeno: desde la caída de la tasa de ganancia, el descenso de la productividad o el agotamiento irracional de los recursos naturales, hasta la acumulación bélica de capital, el último desplazamiento de un sistema visiblemente agotado.
Maternal mental health and caregiver competence of HIV-positive and negative women caring for their singleton newborns in KwaZulu-Natal Province, South Africa
Authors: Rencken G , Govender P , Uys C J E 
Published: July 2022

Background. Maternal mental health during the perinatal period has been of interest to many researchers, with antenatal depression and postnatal depression (PND) being a leading cause of morbidity. The adverse effects of maternal depression on the offspring throughout infancy, childhood and adolescence are well documented. Studies on the mental health of persons living with HIV have also reported a high prevalence of depression.
Objectives. To describe the prevalence of PND in a sample of HIV-positive and HIV-negative mothers delivering healthy singleton infants at one obstetric unit in KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) Province, South Africa, and the subsequent factors influencing neonatal behaviour and perceptions of caregiver competence. Correlations between the presence of PND and perceptions of caregiver competence (with the mother as caregiver), and between infant behaviour, the mother’s confidence in her competence as caregiver, and demographic and medical variables, were also examined.
Methods. Demographic and clinical data were collected from 132 mothers at initial contact and from 32 mothers at the 6-week follow-up appointment. Mothers independently completed the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale at each time point, and the Mother and Baby Scales (MABS) at the 6-week follow-up appointment.Results. The prevalence of depression among all mothers at initial contact was 72.0%, remaining high (68.8%) among the mothers who returned for follow-up. There was a statistically significant correlation between depression and employment at follow-up (p=0.013), and between depression and delivery method (p=0.030). The majority of mothers reported being ‘able to laugh and see the funny side of things’ and ‘looking forward with enjoyment to things’ at initial contact and follow-up. Thoughts of self-harm were reported by 44.7% of mothers at baseline, and by 53.1% at follow-up. Although most infants scored in the average clinical band for neonatal behavioural factors in the MABS, mothers reported lack of confidence, globally and in caring for their infant.
Conclusion. This study of maternal mental health of a sample of HIV-positive and HIV-negative mothers of infants in KZN revealed a higher prevalence of PND than reported in other studies. This population of mothers and infants is at risk of adverse outcomes of maternal depression, in addition to other possible risk factors.

Published: July 2022

Aims: To investigate the effects of Cucumis sativus and Prunus armeniaca juices on blood glucose, insulin and electrolytes of alloxan-induced Diabetic male Sprague Dawley rats.
Study Design: An experimental study involving a total of eighty (80) male Sprague Dawley rats was used.
Place and Duration of Study: Department of Medical Laboratory Science, Rivers State University, Nigeria, between January 2021 and February 2022.
Methodology: 80 male Sprague Dawley rats were grouped into eight groups of ten rats each and housed in separate cages in an animal house. They were induced for diabetes with 150 mg/kg alloxan monohydrate intraperitoneally apart from group 1. They were then treated with various doses of apricot and cucumber juices. The juices were extracted by blending the pulp of each fruit using an electric blender and the juice sieved into a water bottle. Group 1 was the positive control, group 2 negative control, group 3 high dose apricot, group 4 low dose apricot, group 5 high dose cucumber, group 6 low dose cucumber, group 7 a combination of apricot and cucumber juices, group 8 metformin. The rats were treated for a period of 5 weeks and sacrificed. Blood glucose was estimated using the glucose oxidase method, electrolytes (Sodium, Potassium, Chloride) measured using serum electrolytes analyser, insulin was measured using Crystal Chem’s Rat insulin ELISA method. Phytochemical analysis was done using Cleg Anthrone method for carbohydrate, Boham and Kocipaiabyazari test for flavonoid and Harbone method for alkaloids. Statistical analysis was done using GraphPad prism and results expressed as mean ±SD (P < 0.05).
Results: The results showed that high dose cucumber significantly reduced (P = 0.03) blood glucose level (5.4 mmol/L) compared to positive control (10.5 mmol/L); apricot and cucumber juices improved insulin level significantly (2.03 µIU/ml) (P < 0.01) compared to positive control (0.77 µIU/ml); a combination of apricot and cucumber juices improved potassium level (3.73 mmol/L) significantly (P = 0.03) compared to control (3.4 mmol/L). High Dose Cucumber also significantly reduced blood glucose level better than high dose apricot (P < 0.01).
Conclusion: Cucumber juice therefore improved diabetic condition in diabetic male Sprague Dawley rats and a combination of apricot and cucumber juices boosted potassium level in diabetic rats.

Published: July 2022

Background: Thyroid hormones act on nearly every cell in the body including red blood cells. Thyroid hormones are also important to proper development and differentiation of all cells of the human body. Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a virus that destroys certain cells in the immune system. The aim of this study was to determine free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (T4) and red cell indices level of HIV subjects attending clinic at Enugu State University of Science and Technology Teaching Hospital.
Study Design: Case control study.
Place and Duration of Study: Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) clinic and Haematology Laboratory both of Enugu State University of Science and Technology Teaching Hospital, between August and October 2021.
Methodology: Sixty HIV subjects and thirty apparently healthy individuals within the age range of 30 - 60 years were recruited for this study. Free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (FT4), hemoglobin (HGB), packed cell volume (PCV), red blood cell count (RBC), mean cell volume (MCV), mean cell hemoglobin (MCH), mean cell hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), red cell distribution width standard deviation (RDW-SD), red cell distribution width coefficient of variation (RDW-CV) were determined in HIV subjects and apparently healthy individuals.
Results: There was significant difference in MCV (125.79+/- 7.57 vs 78.89+/- 5.71 fl), MCH (23.17+/- 2.10 vs27.21+/- 3.68 pg), MCHC (25.08+/- 2.74 vs30.09+/- 3.27 g/dl), RDW-SD (61.52+/- 7.55 vs46.23+/- 5.87 fl), RDW-CV (23.06+/- 5.78 vs43.87+/- 1.28 fl) and PCV (39.38+/- 3.06 vs31.75+/- 2.44 %) between patients on antiretroviral therapy (ART) and ART-naïve patients respectively. There was significant difference in T4 (8.29+/- 1.29 vs 6.12 µg/dl), MCV (78.89+/- 5.71 vs 84.47 +/- 3.79 fl), MCH (27.21+/- 3.68 vs 29.20 +/- 2.27 pg), RDW-CV (43.87+/- 1.28 vs 12.51 +/- 1.08 fl) and PCV (31.75+/-2.44vs 37.63+/-2.95 %) on ART-naïve patients and apparently healthy subjects respectively. There was a positive correlation between FT3 and MCH in HIV patients on antiretroviral therapy (ART) (p= 0.016).
Conclusion: In people taking antiretroviral therapy, mean cell haemoglobin, mean cell hemoglobin concentration and red cell distribution width coefficient of variation significantly reduced, as well as raised mean cell volume and red cell distribution width standard deviation. This study also observed reduced mean cell haemoglobin, mean cell haemoglobin concentration and mean cell volume in ART- naïve subjects.

Published: July 2022

Aim: The aim of this study was to profile the anti-microbial resistant of Mycobacterial strains causing cluster pulmonary infections in Bayelsa State, Nigeria.
Study Design: Cross sectional facility based.
Place and Duration: This study was carried out in all the in tuberculosis centers in all the eight local government area in Bayelsa State, Nigeria between January 2019 to February 2021.
Materials and Methods: A total of 102 tuberculosis patients who had been previously diagnosed of Tuberculosis (both new and old cases) participated in the study. Two sputum samples were collected from each subject in a wide mouth screw cape container and falcon tube container respectively. The first was used for GenXpert technique while the second was used for culture on Lowenstein Jensen solid Media. The visible and confirmed Mycobacterium growth was subjected to Line Probe Assay (MTBDRplus assay) and genetic sequencing. The DNA of the isolates where extracted using Genolyse method. The extracted DNA was used to perform a gene mutation profiling using MTBRplus Assay. The 16Sr RNA sequencing was done on the amplified genes using the BigDye terminator kit on a 3510 AB1 sequencer.
Results: Out of the 102 sputum samples analyzed a total of 91(89.2%) were GeneXpert positive. Drug resistant profiling by GeneXpert shows 8(7.8) strain mutation at the rpoB gene only while the resistant profiling of the isolated on Lowenstein Jensen solid media had 14(13.7) strain with mutation on genes responsible for first and second line drug resistant. Two non-tuberculosis Mycobacterium species which are Mycobacteriode abscessus subsp. abscessus st and Mycobacterium Kansasii strain FDAARGOS_1534 where isolated among Tuberculosis patients, both are multidrug-resistant strains. The Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains in circulation causing cluster TB infection in Yenagoa especially and other parts of Bayelsa State, Nigeria are MG003 and R2092 strains, but the most predominant strain that is traced to cluster TB infection is MG003. The extraction of MTB gene from a pure culture of a Lowenstein Jensen selected media reduced the possibility of contamination and enhanced the reliability of gene sequencing and Bioinformatics analysis which includes comparing strains of MTB with the once in the National center for Biotechnology information (BLAST) data base.
Conclusion: The resistance profiling of MTB reveals that most strains were resistant to rifampicin. This means that there were more mutation on the rifampicin activation gene (rpoB) than any other gene. Most cases of multi drug resistance is associated with rifampicin resistance while cases of extensive drug resistance is not common.
