Objective: Concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) is widely regarded as the gold standard for locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC). Radio Therapy encompasses pelvic external beam radiation therapy (EBRT), followed by intracavitary brachy therapy (BT) to boost the cervix. However, in developing countries, there is a tendency to prefer surgery over other types of treatments for several reasons - surgery is easily obtainable, more acceptable, and understandable culturally. On the other hand, in developed countries, The utilization of brachy therapy (BT) to boost the cervix in patients with Cervical Cancer (CC) has been gradually declined because of the advent of sophisticated techniques for EBRT. Recently, the treatment of LACC has been a point of controversy. We have no prospective data to justify that surgery or modern EBRT can be used in place of intracavitary BT boost in women with locally advanced CC. This study aims to review existing information about brachytherapy alternatives after neoadjuvant chemoradiation.
Material and Methods: An electronic search of the PubMed database was conducted to obtain key cervical cancer literature. The MEDLINE/PubMED (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) database was chosen as it remains the most widely used resource for medical literature. Additional records were searched in other resources.
Results: The first phase of screening identified 18 articles for the first search term (“Adjuvant hysterectomy” AND “Cervical Cancer”), 10 article for the second search term (“IMRT boost” AND Cervical cancer”) and 11 articles for the third search term (“SBRT” AND “Cervical Cancer”). In sum 39 articles were identified to be relevant for the second phase of screening. Studies that included less than five patients with investigated intervention or did not provided enough information about at least one primary endpoint were excluded. A total of 20 (11-adjuvant hysterectomy, 4-IMRT boost, 5-SBRT boost) papers met the selection criteria and were found eligible for this review.
Conclusion: When all these alternative approaches to ICB are evaluated, adjuvant hysterectomy appears to have treatment outcomes comparable to standard of care, while SBRT appears to have only modest yearly results. As a result, the majority of writers believe that neoadjuvant chemoradiation followed by radical surgery or SBRT may be a realistic therapeutic option for patients with LACC, not merely when ICB is unavailable, technically impractical, or rejected. Large, randomized-controlled trials are required to conclusively demonstrate or invalidate non-ICB alternatives for cervical cancer treatment.

Published: March 2022

Background: Critical thinking (CT) is recognised as an essential component of higher education, and many academic institutions are working on improving their students’ CT skills. To date, the complex relationships between students’ ability to think critically and their age, sex, academic performance, major and prior experience taken all together have not been investigated.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was designed to assess CT among undergraduate students from different health and non-health-related majors.
Results: The results of this study show that the majority of students reported the ability to analyse data, employ formulas, and draw conclusions. However, integrating ideas from different disciplines and revising conclusions based on new findings remained most challenging for students. Moreover, age and academic performance were correlated with students’ CT, while no correlation was found for sex and prior degree variables.
Conclusion: This study contributes to a growing body of literature designed to improve CT among college and higher education students.

Published: March 2022

A review of waste management literature in use today shows that new techniques are needed in the process of planning strategic goals and objectives to technical goals and objectives. One of these techniques is the method which involves the modeling and simulation of wastes generated in our communities. This study uses the ARIMA (Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average), model to model and simulates plastic wastes generated in the Bonaberi industrial zone, of Cameroon for operational planning and management. Attention was also paid to their composition and uses as important resources for recycling industries. The monthly municipal plastic waste data from 2014 to 2020 was used to create a parsimonious ARIMA model. Different performance measures such as mean absolute deviation (MAD), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), root mean square error (RMSE) and coefficient of determination (R-squared) were used to evaluate the performance of these models. Following this, ARIMA (1, 1, 1) model showed a superior prediction performance. According to this model, if current production and waste management trends continue, approximately 5468 Kg/month, 95% CI (2843, 9581) could be attained by December 2021.The results contribute to the process of planning strategic goals and objectives to technical goals and objectives in the region. The model developed can help decision-makers to take better measures and develop policies regarding waste management practices in the future. However, technical, environmental, and socio-economic feasibility studies to explore the technical options available, and to determine the factors that are considered important for the economic success of the project, and causing significant environmental problems resulting from improper disposal, namely burning or dumping, could also direct future investors in the region.

The Manuscripts from our Cow-cellars: Traditions of Purjo, Pataro, Pustnamo, and Bayi in Kumaon Region
Authors: Joshi Jeetesh Kumar 
Published: March 2022

In 2004, after the completion of my grandfather’s first annual death anniversary rituals, we were clearing up the junks kept in boxes in the cow-cellar of our house. We discovered some documents and geometrical instruments used for making astrological charts, among other things. They were in very bad condition. There were some long hand-made paper sheets, magic-mantras written on them, and these are called purjo, some annual astrological charts belonging to the mid-nineteenth century, called Patrao or Panchang, a two-meter long hand-made paper on which Kumauni Khari Holi songs were written, called Holi ko Pataro. Moreover, there was a paper titled Lakshmidutt Joshi Ko Gharo Ko Kharch, dated śaké 1808, bhadra sudi, 15,chandra, also a purjo. From the same village, later on, from an abandoned and dilapidated house, pustnamo/vamśavalì of that village and books related to the Brahmanic rituals also came to light. These documents were impressive and compelled me to reminisce about a tradition whose remnants were exposed to our eyes at that time.
This paper discusses in brief, basically, three kinds of documents. These documents can be categorized as bayi/davthar, vamśavalì/pustnamo and chitti/purjo

Background: Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) is a disease of the urinary system. This type of infection involves urethritis, pyro nephritis, or cystitis. Symptoms can be pelvic pain, increased urge to urinate, pain on passing out urine, and blood in the urine (blander infections). A kidney UTI may cause back pain, nausea vomiting, and fever. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional-quantitative study carried out among 300 pregnant mothers attending ANC at Kawempe regional referral hospital in August 2021. Questionnaires were administered to get the biodata of Participants. Urine samples were collected using sterile containers. Urine culture was performed, urine chemistry using ten parameter strip then urine microscopy was done. Chemistry was done using ten parameter strips, urine microscopy and then later culture and sensitivity was done on urine samples with proteinuria. Results: Urine samples with proteinuria were 5.7 % (n=17), more than half of the Urine Samples 52%( n=156) had positive White blood cell cells and 48 %( n=144) had no abnormality detected. Culture on urine samples showed the following isolation, Escherichia.coli 24.3 %( n=9), Klebsiella pneumonia 21.6 %( n=8), Pseudomonas euroginosa 18.9 %( n=7) Staphylococcus aureus 16.22 %(n=6) Enterococcus spp 2.7%(n=1) and Candida albicans16.2 %( n=6). Conclusion: UTI is an infection of some part of your body’s urinary system which may include: kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. Organisms causing UTIs in pregnancy are the same uropathogens that commonly cause UTI in non-pregnant patients with Escherichia coli being the most commonly isolated organism. Other bacteria include klebishella pneumoniae, staphulococuus, streptococcus, enterococcus, and pseudomonas. Recommendations: Kawempe National Referral Hospital.

Authors:   , Agofure Otovwe , Oghenerume HonourGod 
Published: March 2022

Background Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a condition that arises due to high levels of glucose in the blood because of a defect in insulin production or usage. The report shows an increasing prevalence of prediabetes and DM among adolescents and young adults in Nigeria. Compounding the problem is the reported low level of DM understanding among students in secondary schools in Delta State. This study investigated the knowledge of DM among students of Ogbe Secondary School Effurun, Delta State Nigeria. Methodology This was a school-based descriptive cross-sectional study carried out among 400 randomly selected students from junior secondary school one to senior secondary school two. A structured questionnaire comprising of two sections was used to collect the data. The collected data was analyzed and presented in frequency tables and charts while the Chi-Square test was used to analyze socio-demographic variables and knowledge of DM at a P<0.05 level of significance. Results The mean age was 14.68±1.99 years and 260(65.0%) were females. A good number of the respondents 352(88.0%) have heard of DM. About one-third of the respondents, 120(33.0%) do not know what is DM while most 641(90.9%) could not mention any type of DM. Besides, the majority of the respondents do not know the causes of DM 324(45.5%), signs and symptoms of DM 403(55.7%), risk factors of DM 582(81.3%), and complications of poorly managed DM 603(85.2%). The overall knowledge of DM was 3.4%. Bivariate analysis shows a significant association between the class of the respondents and their knowledge of DM. Conclusion and Recommendation In conclusion, while the majority of the respondents have heard of diabetes mellitus, the majority demonstrated a poor understanding of DM. Therefore, the study recommends regular and continuous awareness creation of diabetes mellitus in secondary schools in Delta State and Nigeria.
