Alcohol Consumption, Physical Activity, and CAD Risk Factors in Firefighters
Authors: Ras Jaron , Leach Lloyd 
Published: November 2022

Introduction:
Firefighting is a physically and psychologically stressful occupation, where firefighters often resort to alcohol use as a coping strategy. Firefighters are particularly vulnerable to alcohol misuse and alcohol disorders, negatively affecting their health, well-being and, possibly, work performance. Therefore, this study investigated the prevalence of alcohol consumption and its relationship with the participants’ sociodemographic characteristics, weekly physical activity, and coronary artery disease (CAD) risk factors.

Methods:
This study used a quantitative, cross-sectional and descriptive design. A total of 124 full-time firefighters, males and females, were conveniently recruited from the City of Cape Town Fire and Rescue Service, South Africa, between September to November, 2020. Firefighters were then separated according to sex, age, ethnicity, and CAD risk factors. Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis H were used to determine the statistical differences between groups, Kendall’s Tau was used to assess the correlation between ordinal and continuous variables, and Chi-square to assess the association between categorical variables. A p-value of less than 0.05 was used to indicate statistical significance.

Results:
In the present study, 72.6% (n = 90) of firefighters reported consuming alcohol, of which 75.5% (n = 74) were male and 61.5% (n = 16) were female. Of this total, 40.0% (n = 44) reported that they consumed a variety of alcoholic beverages, 32.2% (n = 36) consumed beers mainly, 14.4% (n = 16) consumed spirits mainly, and 13.3% (n = 15) consumed wines mainly. In addition, 21.1% (n = 19) were categorised as moderate drinkers and 10% (n = 9) as heavy drinkers. The overall volume of alcohol consumption was significantly different between sexes and ethnicities (p <0.05). In addition, the volume of alcohol consumption was significantly associated with sex, ethnicity, total low-intensity physical activity minutes, diastolic blood pressure, and hypertension (p = 0.005). Sex (p = 0.021) and ethnicity (p = 0.042) were significantly associated with alcohol type. The volume of alcohol consumption was a significant predictor of total low-intensity physical activity, as well as systolic (p = 0.048) and diastolic blood pressures (p = 0.036).

Conclusion:
The majority of firefighters consumed alcohol, preferred a variety of alcoholic beverages and were classified as light drinkers. Younger male firefighters consumed more alcohol than females and were more likely to be categorized as heavy drinkers. Alcohol consumption was significantly associated with sex, ethnicity, physical activity, and hypertension. Educational programs to mitigate alcohol consumption should be implemented as a preventative measure in the fire service, especially among young male firefighters.

Published: November 2022

Introduction:
Vaginismus disorder is one of the most common sexual disorders in women, which is characterized by involuntary muscle spasms of the outer third of the vagina and interferes with vaginal intercourse.

Objective:
The present study aimed to assess self-esteem, sexual self-concept, and irrational beliefs in vaginismus women with other women who do not have sexual problems.

Methods:
This study was a cross-sectional analytical study conducted on 60 married women aged 18 to 35 years old (vaginismus=30, control=30) by convenient sampling in 2020. The samples were selected from a sexual disorders’ clinic. The written informed consent forms were obtained. It took 30 to 40 minutes to complete the questionnaires The Multidimensional Sex Questionnaire (MSQ), The Sexual Self-esteem Inventory for Women (SSEI-W) and Jones' Irrational Beliefs Test (IBT-40). The data were analyzed using statistical methods at the levels of descriptive and inferential statistics of chi-square and t-test with SPSS 23.

Results:
According to the calculated mean for each group, it can be said that the women with vaginismus vs. control had lower score in sexual self-concept (113.33 ± 21.66 vs. 125.26± 24.32). Further, the mean of Self-esteem and irrational belief in the vaginismus and control groups were 261.40±49 vs 223.36± 46.53 and 122.26±22.49 vs 118.333 that of the control group, indicating a significant statistical difference (p=0.003).

Conclusion:
The present study showed that women with vaginismus have lower sexual self-concept and self-esteem, but their non-sexual irrational beliefs have no difference with those of non-affected women though their non-sexual beliefs are different. Therefore, it seems that medical and educational programs must focus on changing these variables.

This study tries to explore and analyze the similarities and differences as well as the pros and cons of the settlement process in criminal acts against defamation in Indonesia and Australia. By tracing legal sources of both countries, this study demonstrates that the process of resolving criminal acts of defamation in Indonesia and Australia has several similarities and differences. The similarity rests on the application of two ways of criminal settlements, either by litigation or without litigation. In Indonesia, the settlement of defamation cases is always the domain of criminal law. In such the cases, according to the provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code, a complaint from the victim has to be brought to the Police in order to be set in the court. However, the defamation settlement can also be alternatively conducted through a non litigative way, known as a Restorative Justice system. Whereas in Australia, the settlement of criminal acts of defamation shall be resolved through civil proceedings, after which can be settled through criminal courts recommended with a written approval from the Director of Public Prosecutors.

ABSTRAK
Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui dan menganalisis persamaan dan perbedaan, berikut keunggulan dan kelemahan penyelesaian tindak pidana pencemaran nama baik di Indonesia dan Australia. Dengan menelusuri sumber-sumber bahan hukum kedua negara, artikel ini menunjukkan bahwa penyelesaian tindak pidana pencemaran nama baik di Indonesia maupun Australia memiliki beberapa persamaan dan perbedaan. Persamaannya terletak pada diterapkannya dua jalur penyelesaian tindak pidana pencemaran nama baik, melalui pengadilan ataupun di luar pengadilan. Namun di Indonesia penyelesaian tindak pidana selalu merupakan ranah hukum pidana, yaitu dimulai dengan adanya pengaduan oleh pihak yang dirugikan ke pihak kepolisian sesuai dengan yang diatur dalam KUHAP. Penyelesaian melalui jalur Restorative Justice juga dapat diterapkan dalam proses penyelesaian pencemaran nama baik ini. Sedangkan di Australia, penyelesaian tindak pidana pencemaran nama baik justru harus diselesaiakan melalui jalur perdata terlebih dahulu, baru setelah itu dapat diselesaikan melalui jalur pidana dengan adanya persetujuan tertulis dari Direktur Penuntut Umum.
Smoking is associated with an increased risk for fractures in women after childbirth: a nationwide population-based cohort study in Finland
Authors: Vaajala Matias , Kuitunen Ilari , Nyrhi Lauri , Ponkilainen Ville , Huttunen Tuomas T , Mattila Ville M 
Published: November 2022

Background and purpose: Smoking weakens bone health and increases the risk of fractures. We investigated the incidence of fractures in smoking, fertile-aged women and compared it with that of non-smoking, fertile-aged women using data from nationwide registers.Patients and methods: We conducted a retrospective register-based nationwide cohort study from 1998 to 2018. We identified all women smoking during pregnancy from the Medical Birth Register and compared these with non-smokers. We gathered fractures for both groups from the Care Register for Health Care. Pregnancies with missing smoking or socioeconomic status were excluded. A Cox regression model was used to analyze adjusted hazard ratios (aHR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for fractures during the 5-year follow-up starting from delivery. The model was adjusted for the age of the mother at the time of delivery and socioeconomic status.Results: The smoking group included 110,675 pregnancies and the non-smoking group 628,085 pregnancies. The overall fracture rate was higher in smokers after 1-year follow-up (aHR 1.7, CI 1.5–2.0) and 5-year follow-up (aHR 1.7, CI 1.6–1.8). After 5-year follow-up, the fracture rates for polytraumas (aHR 2.3, CI 1.4–3.7), inpatient admitted fractures (aHR 2.0, CI 1.7–2.4), and non-admitted fractures (aHR 1.8, CI 1.7–1.9) were all higher among smoking women.Conclusion: Smoking in fertile-aged women was associated with a higher risk of fractures during the 1-year and 5-year follow-up after giving birth, also after adjusting for age and socioeconomic status. Whether the increased fracture risk is caused by direct effects of smoking on bone health or riskier behavior remains uncertain.

SUMMARY

Objectives
To compare the effects of particle abrasion medium and pressure on shear bond strength and biaxial flexural strength of three generations of zirconia (Lava Frame, Lava Plus, and Lava Esthetic) with the goal of optimizing the bond to zirconia.

Methods
280 discs (14 mm diameter; 1 mm thickness) of each zirconia were milled and sintered. Specimens of each material were randomly distributed into 14 groups (n=20); half were tested for shear bond strength and half were tested for biaxial flexural strength. The specimens were particle abraded on one surface by 2 different media (50 μm alumina particles or 50 μm glass beads) for 10 seconds at three different pressures (15, 30, and 45 psi or 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 MPa). Untreated specimens served as positive control. A tube (1.50 mm diameter) filled with dual cured resin cement (Panavia SA) was placed onto the surface and light cured. Specimens were stored in water (37°C for 24 hours) and shear bond strength was measured in a universal testing machine (Instron). Biaxial flexural strength of each specimen was measured according to ISO 6872. Shear bond strength and biaxial flexural strength were compared individually with a 2-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) for factors surface treatment and zirconia composition.

Results
Significant differences were seen between surface treatments (p&lt;0.01), zirconia composition (p&lt;0.01) and their interaction (p&lt;0.01) for both bond strength and flexural strength. With alumina particle abrasion, higher pressure produced higher bonds for Lava Frame and Lava Plus zirconia while the bond of Lava Esthetic declined with increased pressure. Higher pressure (&gt;0.2 MPa or 30 psi) with alumina decreased biaxial flexural strength with Lava Esthetic zirconia.

Conclusions
Particle abrasion with alumina produced a significantly better combination of bond strength while maintaining biaxial strength of three zirconia materials than particle abrasion with glass beads. The bond strength also depended upon the pressure of particle abrasion and the generation of zirconia used.
