Characteristics of Musculoskeletal Signs and Symptoms during the Recovery Phase of Patients with Moderate-to-Severe COVID-19 at the Philippine General Hospital
Authors: Evangelista Teresita Joy P. , Abiera Joycie Eulah H. 
Published: March 2022

Introduction. Musculoskeletal complaints have been observed in the recovery phase of patients with moderate-to-severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We noted several referrals for physical rehabilitation at the University of the Philippines-Philippine General Hospital (UP-PGH), a designated COVID-19 referral center. These observations resembled the musculoskeletal manifestations associated with poorer outcomes reported in other coronavirus studies.
Objectives. The study determined the musculoskeletal signs and symptoms of adults in the recovery phase of moderate to severe COVID-19 using the COVID Musculoskeletal Assessment Tool (CMAT).
Methods. This was a three-phased, prospective, descriptive study of adults admitted for COVID-19 at the UP-PGH. Phase 1 was the development of the CMAT based on a review of related literature and patient charts, and patient interviews. The tool was pretested and validated in Phase 2 before it was used in the evaluation of study participants in Phase 3 of the research. Data was encoded using Microsoft® Excel 2007 and analyzed using STATA, Version 12.0 (Texas, USA). Descriptive statistics were used to summarize the variables collected for the study.
Results. A cohort of 40 patients admitted at the UP-PGH for moderate-to-severe COVID-19 infection was evaluated using the CMAT. Most of the patients had an average age of 55 years and were males. Majority resided in an urban area, reached high school education, and were ambulatory before their illness. The most common comorbidities were hypertension and diabetes. All patients required oxygen support. Based on the CMAT, majority of the participants complained of muscle pain, generalized weakness, and easy fatigability. Other common findings were neck-shoulder and lower limb pain, dyspnea on exertion, limited mobility in the trunk, hips, and knees, joint pains, and decreased muscle strength. Half of the participants needed a wheelchair or walker to ambulate. These findings may be due to the COVID-19 disease and to prolonged confinement in bed. Only one patient underwent physical therapy through bedside instructions.
Conclusion. Musculoskeletal signs and symptoms were common in the patients recovering from COVID-19 disease. The COVID-19 Musculoskeletal Assessment Tool facilitated the evaluation of patients and the recording of results. Early referral for medical rehabilitation and timely intervention are strongly recommended.

Abstract: IntroductionThe syndromic management has been the cornerstone of management of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) over the last few decades especially in developing countries. But due to its inability to treat asymptomatic cases leading to undesirable sequeale, it has received a lot of criticism recently. On the other hand, Evidence based management of patients of vaginal and cervical discharge has lead to effective and timely management of these patient but has increased the financial burden.Objective:The goal of the study is to compare syndromic vs. Evidence based approach in the management of vaginal and cervical discharge. Method:The present study was conducted in the outpatient department of dermatology, venereology & leprology of a tertiary care teaching hospital. 354 patients of clinical impression of vaginal and cervical discharge were included in the study. Detailed history and examination was recorded. Patients selected for syndromic management were managed as per NACO guidelines. For evidence based management special investigations were carried out and patients were managed accordingly. Result:Out of total 342 cases of VD, treated with syndromic and evidence based approach, p value is significant for 7,14 and 21 days follow-up which means evidence based approach is better than syndromic approach. Similar findings were observed in patients of cervical discharge.Also, among CVV patients managed on lines of syndromic approach only 10% showed improvement by end of one week. Conclusion:The control of STIs in resource-poor settings remains a major challenge.Focus is now shifting towards a diagnostic model of STI care, given the improving economic status of developing countries and availability of affordable point-of care testing. Also, various changes in the syndromic approach are needed immediately for it to still remain relevant.

Published: March 2022

INTRODUCTION : In December 2019, a large outbreak of a novel coronavirus infection occurred in wuhan hubei province, china. The disease caused by the virus, named novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) by the world health organization (WHO) can be spread through human to human contact. In human coronavirus can cause spectrum of diseases ranging from asymptomatic patient, simple cold cough to severe acute respiratory syndrome ( SARS). HRCT is very useful to see the extent of disease spread in lungs and to assess the severity of infection. It also helps in monitoring the response and therapeutic effectiveness and prognosis. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: 1]To evaluate the various HRCT thorax Findings in RT PCR confirmed patients of covid-19 infection. 2] To correlate the findings of HRCT of thorax with patient’s clinical symptoms. METHODOLOGY: A retro- prospective clinical study was carried out on patients who were referred for HRCT thorax to the Department of Radiodiagnosis, Sheth L.G. general hospital having signs and symptoms of covid-19 and whose RT PCR report was awaited and who had undergone HRCT thorax and only patients who were RT PCR test positive within 72 hours were taken in the study. Total of 250 patients from May 2020 to January 2021, who confirmed covid-19 diagnosis with RT-PCR were taken.RESULTS In our study we found, the most common initial CT findings in COVID-19 pneumonia are bilateral, patchy or rounded ground-glass opacities that most frequently occur bilaterally and in the lung periphery with a subpleural basal predominance in left lower lobe. Most common finding were patchy bilateral ground glass opacity most commonly associated with inter and intralobular septal thickening giving crazy paving pattern. Consolidation was also seen with or without GGO suggesting infective etiology. CONCLUSION:HRCT Thorax may be useful as a standard method for the rapid diagnosis of COVID-19 to optimize the management of severely ill PATIENTS.

Abstract. Sea ice expansion in the Southern Ocean is believed to have contributed to
glacial–interglacial atmospheric CO2 variability by inhibiting air–sea gas exchange and influencing the ocean's meridional overturning circulation. However, limited data on past sea ice coverage over the last 140 ka (a complete glacial cycle) have hindered our ability to link sea ice expansion to oceanic processes that affect atmospheric CO2 concentration. Assessments of past sea ice coverage using diatom assemblages have primarily focused on the Last Glacial Maximum (∼21 ka) to Holocene, with few quantitative reconstructions extending to the onset of glacial Termination II (∼135 ka). Here we provide new estimates of winter sea ice concentrations (WSIC) and summer sea surface temperatures (SSST) for a full glacial–interglacial cycle from the southwestern Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean using the modern analog technique (MAT) on
fossil diatom assemblages from deep-sea core TAN1302-96. We examine how the
timing of changes in sea ice coverage relates to ocean circulation changes
and previously proposed mechanisms of early glacial CO2 drawdown. We
then place SSST estimates within the context of regional SSST records to
better understand how these surface temperature changes may be influencing
oceanic CO2 uptake. We find that winter sea ice was absent over the
core site during the early glacial period until MIS 4 (∼65 ka), suggesting that sea ice may not have been a major contributor to early
glacial CO2 drawdown. Sea ice expansion throughout the
glacial–interglacial cycle, however, appears to coincide with observed
regional reductions in Antarctic Intermediate Water production and
subduction, suggesting that sea ice may have influenced intermediate ocean
circulation changes. We observe an early glacial (MIS 5d) weakening of
meridional SST gradients between 42 and 59∘ S throughout
the region, which may have contributed to early reductions in atmospheric
CO2 concentrations through its impact on air–sea gas exchange.
Ambient seismic noise analysis of LARGE-N data for mineral exploration in the Central Erzgebirge, Germany

Published: March 2022

Abstract. Ambient seismic noise tomography is a novel, low-impact
method for investigating the earth's structure. Although most passive seismic
studies focus on structures on crustal scales, there are only a few examples
of this technique being applied in a mineral exploration context. In this
study, we performed an ambient seismic experiment to ascertain the
relationship between the shallow shear wave velocity and mineralized zones
in the Erzgebirge in Germany, one of the most important metal provinces in
Europe. Late Variscan mineralized greisen and veins occurring in the
Geyer-Ehrenfriedersdorf mining district of the Central Erzgebirge were mined
from medieval times until the end of the 19th century. These occurrences
represent a significant resource for commodities of high economic
importance, such as tin, tungsten, zinc, indium, bismuth and lithium. Based
on ambient noise data from a dense “LARGE-N” network comprising 400
low-power, short-period seismic stations, we applied an innovative
tomographic inversion technique based on Bayesian statistics
(transdimensional, hierarchical Monte Carlo search with Markov Chains using
a Metropolis/Hastings sampler) to derive a three-dimensional shear wave
velocity model. An auxiliary 3D airborne time-domain electromagnetic dataset
is used to provide additional insight into the subsurface architecture of
the area. The velocity model shows distinct anomalies down to approximately
500 m depth that correspond to known geological features of the study area,
such as (a) gneiss intercalations in the mica schist-dominated host rock,
imaged by a SW–NE striking low-velocity zone with a moderately steep
northerly dip, and (b) a NW-trending strike-slip fault, imaged as a
subvertical linear zone cross-cutting and offsetting this low-velocity
domain. Similar to the velocity data, the electromagnetic data exhibit
north-dipping (high-conductivity) structures in the mica schists,
corresponding to the strike and dip of the predominant metamorphic fabric.
An unsupervised classification performed on the bivariate 3D dataset yielded
nine spatially coherent classes, one of which shows a high correspondence with
drilled greisen occurrences in the roof zone of a granite pluton. The
relatively high mean shear velocity and resistivity values of this class
could be explained by changes in density and composition during greisen
formation, as observed in other areas of the Erzgebirge. Our study
demonstrates the great potential of the cost-efficient and low-impact
ambient noise technology for mineral exploration, especially when combined
with other independent geophysical datasets.

To welcome the era of technology 4.0, and there are still many human resources who do not understand how to apply the technology that is currently developing, it is necessary to have socialization and training in the Cipurut Village environment. With the current condition which is still in the covid-19 pandemic, almost all activities use the internet, such as education and services to the community. With the development of the digital world today, many things, especially those related to educational activities and services to the community, can use the digital system, making it easier and more practical. With many people, especially human resources at the Cipurut village office, who do not yet understand digital technology, it is necessary to have the training and workshops to improve the competence of human resources.As a result of the current use of technology, the existing community can already use it to help their activities, such as online sales, public services, etc. For village officials themselves, they can use digital technology to assist in providing services to the community.
Svenska kyrkan och äldres välbefinnande – betydelsen av en församlings öppna verksamheter
Authors: Wulff Hamrin Cornelia , Kusterer Hanna Li , Lundberg Lotta 
Published: March 2022

Äldre personers välbefinnande, och hur kyrkan och dess församlingar genom sina öppna verksamheter kan bidra till detta välbefinnande, står i fokus för denna studie. Vi genomförde tretton intervjuer med personer över 65 år som besökt någon öppen verksamhet i en församling i en stad i Mellansverige sommaren 2021. En induktiv tematisk analys resulterade i fem teman: kontakt med andra, fysisk aktivitet, sysselsättning, kyrkan och församlingen samt platser att gå till.
Resultatet visar betydelsen av dessa faktorer för att minska känslan av ensamhet och bryta isolering. Det överensstämmer med tidigare forskning, men pekar också på kyrkans och församlingens potentiella betydelse för att ge äldre personer sammanhang och sysselsättning.
Det finns få studier som har undersökt detta och mer forskning behövs. Det behövs också fler sociala aktiviteter och träffpunkter för äldre i Sverige.

The Church of Sweden and the well-being of elderly people – the impact of open activities in a parishThe aim of the present study was to explore factors that contribute to elderly people’s well-being, the impact of the church and their open activities organized by a parish. Thirteen interviews were carried out in a city in mid-Sweden with people over 65 years of age who had participated in an open activity during the summer of 2021. An inductive thematic analysis resulted in five themes: interactions with others, physical activity, keeping occupied, the church and the parish and places to visit.
The result points to the importance of these factors in decreasing loneliness and social isolation. This is in accordance with previous research but highlights the importance of the church and the parish in giving elderly people a social context and a meaningful pursuit.
Few studies have examined this, and more research is needed as well as more activities and meeting points for elderly people in Sweden.

Coconut water (Cocos nucifera L.) possesses natural hydrating qualities, functional health properties and various nutritional benefits. Lactobacillus species AAF-1 has been isolated and purified from coconut water. The isolated culture was screened for the production of extracellular secreted enzymes having industrial value. Growth of the Lactobacillus sp. AAF-1 on MRS agar containing respective substrates showed that the Lactobacillus sp. AAF-1 is the potential producer of amylase, protease, cellulase and beta galactosidase. Further cell free filtrates of the Lactobacillus sp. AAF-1 showed large zone of hydrolysis of starch, gelatin, cellulose and lactose that reflected the extracellular production of the above enzymes in culture medium at 50 °C. It has been observed that activities after 72 h of incubation in cell free filtrates of protease, amylase, cellulase and beta galactosidase as the zone of respective substrate hydrolysis measured as 10, 8, 6 and 10 mm respectively. Thus, Lactobacillus sp. AAF-1 could be the potential producer of the enzymes having industrial value.

Do Recall and Recognition Lead to Different Retrieval Experiences?
Authors: Uner Oyku , Roediger Henry L. 
Published: March 2022

Abstract
The relation between recall and recognition has been debated in various contexts, and researchers have asked whether these tasks lie on a single continuum depending on the type of retrieval cues or whether they represent distinctly different processes. In the current experiment, we considered the continuity hypothesis, which states that recall and recognition are different only in cue information available, and we asked whether retrieval experience during various tests can further inform the nature of this relationship. Participants studied lists of 5-letter words and were tested with either no overt cues (free recall) or with the first 2 letters, first 3 letters, first 4 letters, or all 5 letters (recognition) of a word as retrieval cues. We used the remember/know/guess paradigm and asked participants to report their retrieval experience to infer the underlying experiences of recollection and familiarity. Accuracy increased continuously as the number of letter cues increased. This continuity was reflected in experiences of recollection, but familiarity increased nonlinearly across cue conditions. Our results show some support for the continuity hypothesis; however, recall and recognition do differ in that recall relies more heavily on recollection, whereas recognition relies on both recollection and familiarity.
Indirect Associations Between Self-Rated Alertness and Recall via Strategic and Nonstrategic Factors
Authors: Gaultney Jane F. 
Published: March 2022

Abstract
Excessive daytime sleepiness is associated with reduced cognitive functioning in children and adolescents. The present study was an initial examination of direct and indirect associations between sleep and recall via strategic and nonstrategic memory processes in a sample of 66 participants from grades 1, 3, 5, and college. Stimuli varied in familiarity and presence of a strategy prompt. Strategy use during encoding and during recall were measured separately. The present study predicted that alertness would be associated with both strategic and nonstrategic factors related to memory, alertness would predict recall indirectly via strategic and nonstrategic factors (controlling for grade and gender), and this indirect path would be moderated by grade. The first 2 hypotheses were partially supported; the third was not. Self-reported alertness associated weakly with speed of tapping and with strategy use during encoding on the first trial (familiar words, no strategy cue). Analysis indicated an indirect effect via strategy use during encoding on Trial 1 but via speed of tapping on Trial 3. Tests of moderated mediation were not significant on any trial, indicating that the indirect pathways were not moderated by grade. Alertness may influence recall via strategic or nonstrategic processes, and its role may depend on familiarity and availability of strategy cues. Several proposed research directions are suggested for future exploration.
