Authors: Kiran H S , Gowthami T 
Published: August 2022

Background:
Sleep plays a vital role in disease prevention and rejuvenation. Diet and exercise are emphasized in the prevention of diseases, whereas sleep is often overlooked. The consequences of poor sleep often go unnoticed. Insufficient and poor sleep has been associated with various health problems and is considered an important risk factor. The objective of this study was to explore the association between perceived sleep quality and quantity before acute myocardial infarction (MI).

Materials and Methods:
It was a prospective observational study. Thirty hospitalized patients of acute coronary syndrome with an index event of first-time MI satisfying the inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was administered to the patients. Other basic investigations done for the diagnosis and work-up of the cases by the treating doctors were noted and data were analyzed.

Results:
In our study, the mean Global PSQI score was 7.16 (standard deviation = 3.79). In our study, based on Global PSQI scores (based on the details of the past 1 month before acute MI), sleep quality was found to be “POOR” (Global PSQI score >5) in 23 (76.7%) patients with acute MI which was statistically significant (Spearman's Rho: r = 1) and “Good” (Global PSQI score <5) in 7 (23.3%) patients. All the patients >60 years of age had poor sleep quality. The average duration of sleep was 5 h 30 min. The majority of the patients (71%) with acute MI slept for <6 h which was statistically significant (Spearman's Rho: r = –1).

Conclusion:
This pilot study, based on PSQI, establishes the association between perceived sleep quality and quantity and acute MI.

Os jovens, que são maioria da população constituinte das universidades, são um grupo vulnerável às infecções sexualmente transmissíveis, devido a fatores variáveis, tais como o comportamento de risco e o desconhecimento sobre o assunto. Esse estudo visa analisar o nível de conhecimento e exposição ao risco de contágio por infecções sexualmente transmissíveis em estudantes de medicina. É um estudo transversal realizado em uma faculdade particular de Minas Gerais, com análise de questionários aplicados em amostra aleatória e estratificada do 1º ao 8º semestre do curso de medicina. No estudo, 72,23% já se colocou em risco à exposição a ISTs, sendo o principal fator o sexo sem uso de preservativo. Os participantes demonstraram bom conhecimento acerca do HPV e HIV, 93,21% têm conhecimento sobre a vacinação referente ao HPV, no entanto a inexistência da vacinação referente à hepatite C ainda é conflitante. 19,75% não sabem relacionar a IST ao agente causador. A partir desses resultados encontrados pode-se concluir que a maioria dos voluntários considera que, dentre as ISTs, têm conhecimento suficiente principalmente sobre o HIV. Assim, é importante a existência de um programa de intervenção para maior conscientização dos voluntários, principalmente, por se tratar de futuros profissionais de saúde que atuarão tanto na prevenção quanto no tratamento das ISTs.

Published: August 2022

Purpose: Perennial water crises is a monster that threatens the very essence of human existence globally. Efforts have been made to stamp out water crises by the provision of pipe borne water, artisanal well, etc but to no avail. Notwithstanding these efforts, a visit to the streets of Enugu showed the excruciating hardship faced by the people as a result of scarcity of portable water. This study aimed at determining the current condition of portable water supply, challenges to sustainable water supply as well as suitability and sustainability of harvesting portable water through infiltration/sump technology adaptation in solving Enugu metropolis water crises.
Methodology: The survey and experimental research methods were used. A total number of 48 water samples were aseptically collected from 3 points on a weekly basis. The points are A: from the flowing Asata River, B: from the infiltration sump and, C: from the locally fabricated water treatment plant. These samples were subjected to physical, chemical and biological analysis to determine the level of impurities, chemical and biological pollutants contained therein. Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS) was used to determine the concentration of heavy metals in the water samples. Direct culture plate count was used to determine bacterial load while sample concentration method was used for the microscopic examination.
Findings: The results were presented in tables and analyzed with simple percentages. It was discovered that water supply to Enugu residents has been abysmally low compared to the Enugu State Water Corporation (ENSWC) installed capacity. Out of the six (6) years under study, the highest annual water production of 6,082,962 m3 representing 12.62% of the installed capacity, supplied to the inhabitants of Enugu metropolis was achieved in the year 2018. The study discovered that the raw Asata River is contaminated with (a) heavy metals, (b) E. coli and Coliforms (c) debris, non-metallic contaminants etc. However, with the application of sump/infiltration technology and minimal treatment the river is a veritable and sustainable alternative to the epileptic pipe borne water supply from ENSWC to the inhabitants.
Recommendation: Adaptation and application of sump/infiltration smart indigenous water harvesting technology in solving the perennial water crisis in Enugu metropolis is recommended.

Published: August 2022

Purpose: Effective management of fisheries resources can be significantly undermined by non-compliance with regulations. This study sought to determine compliance with the Nile Perch slot size regulation among fish traders in Nairobi County, explore their perceptions on the regulation and determine factors that influence compliance.Method: The research adopted a combination of both quantitative and qualitative research methods. A semi-structured questionnaire was administered to fish traders to determine compliance, obtain a general picture of their attitudes towards compliance and determine factors that influence compliance with the fisheries regulation on Nile Perch slot size requirements. A total of 148 fish traders were enumerated by simple random sampling. Only fish traders dealing with Nile Perch trade were included in the study, three fish traders declined to participate in the study leaving an average response rate of 98%. The questionnaire was followed up with more in-depth semi-structured key informant interviews with 14 stakeholders consisting of fisheries staff deployed to the fish markets and the County fisheries office as well as leaders in the fish market committees in order to obtain a thorough understanding of the factors leading to non-compliance. The average duration of interviews was half hour and were conducted at their places of work. Two focus group discussions (FGDs) were also conducted with fish traders from the two main fish markets in the city in order to provide a deeper understanding of the drivers of non-compliance among fish traders. The FGDs comprised of 12 and 8 members from Gikomba and City markets respectively. Results: The results revealed 87% levels of non-compliance among fish traders. The study revealed that weak enforcement, poverty and lack of knowledge of the importance of the regulation as significant factors for non-compliance.Policy recommendation: It is recommended that capacity building programmes are necessary to increase voluntary compliance and an effective enforcement is recommended to help deter fish traders from engaging in illegal fish trade.

Authors: Sikwibele Wambinji , Chipatu Lillian 
Published: August 2022

Introduction: Degradation of river catchment is a major concern world over. Environmental Education is a vital tool to reduce or stop environmental degradation. Several of the environmental problems presently faced by humankind are directly or indirectly caused by misunderstanding of the society about Environmental Education. To address river catchment degradation, this study is in line with priority area 5 of the Global Action Programme (GAP) on Environmental Education and Sustainable Development which emphasises the need for researchers to accelerate sustainable solutions to existing social problems at local level through educational intervention strategies.
Purpose: This study explored the management of river catchment through Environmental Education in Chongwe river catchment. Prior studies on the Chongwe river catchment lacked education approach in addressing the environmental degradation in the catchment. The objective of this study was: to assess the nature of Environmental Education programme taking place if any.
Methodology: This study was guided by critical realism view on research .The study used case study design within the stream of qualitative approach. Targeted population included selected ten (10) local people, ten (10) small scale farmers, two (2) traditional leaders and two (2) experts. Participants were sampled through homogenous purposive sampling while experts were sampled using expert purpose purposive sampling. Data collection instruments included interview schedule, focus group discussion guide and participant observation guide. Data was analyzed though thematic analysis. Data validation was through triangulation method that is through mirror data triangulation techniques.
Findings: From the study findings, the environmental degradation issues in Chongwe river catchment were confirmed and it was found that Environmental Education was being offered in the area but it was not adequate to address the degradation because the Environmental Education offered lacked education approach. This resulted in proposing an Environmental Education programme to address the bad activities in the catchment.
Recommendations: Based on the findings, the study recommended that, there should be formation of an Environmental Forum from the local level incorporating the private sectors, creation of an empowerment scheme like bee-keeping and promotion of best practices in the catchment.

Strategies of adults for dealing with feelings of guilt – findings from a large web-based survey
Authors: Luck Tobias , Luck-Sikorski Claudia 
Published: August 2022

BackgroundFeelings of guilt are common in adulthood. Depending on the situation, individuals need different strategies for dealing with these usually unpleasant experiences. The aim of this study was to provide comprehensive empirical information about such different guilt-related strategies used in adulthood.Participants and procedureA cross-sectional web-based survey was conducted (05/2019-04/2020) collecting autobiographical information on guilt expe-riences. Stated strategies for dealing with feelings of guilt were classified into inductively defined categories, and the fre-quency of the categorized strategies was calculated (total, gender-, age-specific). Associations between applied strategies and gender and age were analyzed using Cramér’s φ and V as appropriate.ResultsAnalyzing statements of 579 participants (18-84 years), we differentiated 34 different categories of guilt-related strategies. The most frequently used strategies were “Self-reflection; contemplation; analyzing/reviewing things one feels guilty about” and “Repressing/ignoring/(actively) forgetting/not thinking about/bottling up the feelings of guilt”. Female and male partic-ipants showed a significantly different use only in the strategy of utilizing “Professional support/therapy/counseling” (10.57% vs. 3.67%; Cramér’s φ = .13, p = .001). Additionally, only a few differences were found with regard to age.ConclusionsAdults use a broad variety of different strategies for dealing with feelings of guilt. Strategies regulating emotional responses to the problem causing feelings of guilt seem to be at least as important as strategies targeting the problem itself. Many strategies do not serve pro-social functions. Feelings of guilt are an issue relevant for mental health care since several of the adults with feelings of guilt utilize professional help, and an even higher number may need such help.

Published: August 2022

México se ha convertido en el principal importador de maíz; los pequeños productores utilizan sistemas de producción basados en policultivos con rendimientos bajos. Con el objetivo de desarrollar tecnologías para el cultivo de maíz y frijol se estableció el siguiente experimento. Se probaron tres arreglos topológicos, cultivo simple de maíz y frijol, intercalado de maíz y frijol a una y dos hileras. Se utilizó un diseño completamente al azar, con tres repeticiones por tratamiento. Las variables evaluadas fueron biomasa aérea, rendimiento de grano, índice de cosecha y eficiencia relativa de la tierra (ERT) y, eficiencia relativa de la ganancia (ERG). No fue posible la producción de frijol en este sistema. Los tratamientos de intercalado a dos hileras presentaron los mejores valores para las variables, excepto índice de cosecha. La variedad V-526 tuvo el mayor índice. En el segundo año no se encontraron diferencias entre arreglos topológicos, probablemente debido a la disminución en la precipitación. En ese año el índice de cosecha fue mayor en la variedad VETX-200 UAN. Al igual que en la primera evaluación, la eficiencia relativa de la tierra, el ingreso neto y la eficiencia relativa de la ganancia fue similar en ambas variedades. Para realizar el cultivo intercalado de maíz y frijol es necesario probar otras variedades de frijol. Es posible obtener buenos rendimientos, eficiencia relativa de la tierra y de la ganancia en sistemas intercalados de maíz a doble hilera.
Inferior Vena Cava Collapsibility Index and the Risk of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy in Patients Undergoing Coronary Angiography
Authors: Yılmaz Fatih 
Published: August 2022

Introduction: The present study aims to investigate the association between contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) and inferior vena cava collapsibility index (IVC-CI) measured via echocardiography to estimate intravascular volume.
Patients and Methods: A total of 100 patients were referred to coronary angiography (CAG). On the day of admission, blood samples were collected, and an echocardiographic evaluation was performed to estimate IVC-CI immediately before CAG. IVC-CI ratios were stratified into three groups (low, mid, high) (<50%, 50-75%, >75%). Creatinine was assessed again at 48 hours following the CAG procedure. The difference between baseline serum creatinine and serum creatinine at 48 hours was calculated as ΔCrea while the difference in GFR was calculated as ΔGFR. Biochemical parameters and CIN ratios were compared between all groups.
Results: There were no differences across the groups in terms of procedural characteristics, preprocedural lab parameters, and concomitant medication. ΔCreatinine, ΔGFR, and the incidence of CIN were significantly higher in the high IVC-CI group.
Conclusion: Post-procedure incidence of CIN, ΔGFR, and Δcreatinine compared to the pre-procedure values were higher in the high IVC-CI group.

Introduction: Although the link between coronary artery disease (CAD) and periodontal disease has previously been demonstrated, there is insufficient research on how the severity of both diseases impact each other. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the severity of periodontal disease and the diffuseness of CAD in diabetic patients.
Patients and Methods: A total of 127 diabetic patients with CAD were included in this study. The SYNTAX score determined the diffuseness of CAD, and the patients were divided into two groups as the SYNTAX score ≤22 and >22. The plaque index and periodontal disease index were used in the dental evaluation. The relationship of these indexes to the diffuseness of coronary artery disease has been investigated.
Results: In this study, the plaque index and periodontal disease index correlate significantly with the high SYNTAX score in diabetic patients. In univariate logistic regression analysis, PDI was a predictive variable for the SYNTAX score above 22 in diabetic patients. According to the ROC curve analysis, it was shown that the periodontal disease index of 4.3 could predict a high SYNTAX score.
Conclusion: To sum up, we found a significant relationship between periodontal disease severity and coronary artery disease diffuseness. PDI was found to be a predictor of a high SYNTAX score.
