Published: July 2022

Achieving lasting impact on health outcomes requires a focus not just on patient care, but on community wide approaches (such as school) aimed at improving population health. Interventions that address the conditions in the places where we live, learn, work, and play have the greatest potential impact on our health and beginning early in school settings can go a long way.The study aimed to assess the biophysical and anthropometric indices of children enrolled in a customized sports club in a school setting along with assessing the feasibility and effectiveness of establishing a customized “Sports Club” in a school setting. Uncontrolled quasi experimental design was employed. Students of 5 – 8 standard who consented to participate were enrolledin a customized “Active Sports Club” for 90days. Pre-tested questionnaire, anthropometric and biophysical measurements were conducted before and after the intervention. The customized sports club schedule included 15 minutes of Pranayam daily; fixed set of aerobic exercise and sports conducted alternately.Overall the enrollment of boys (64%) was double than girls (36%) in the sports club and girls of 12-14 years had higher values of total body fat (TBF%) as per the cut-offs. Blood pressure values were in the “at risk” range. The sports club was well accepted by students, teachers and parents. Post intervention proportion of children having normal nutritional status increased; undernourished decreased while overweight remained stagnant. TBF percent values did not shift in “at risk” category and the blood pressure values reduced dramatically among the selected children.The customized sports clubcan be extrapolated the school facilities and could be managed with existing staff as well as time and a positive impact on the anthropometric and biophysical parameters of the participants was recorded.

Published: July 2022

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disorder involving various other systems in the body apart from lungs. Such co-existence leads to worsening of disease control and associated increase in the morbidity as well as mortality of the diseased patients. They COPD patients are more prone for association with low fat free mass and low bone mineral density owing to pronounced persistent inflammation and various other associated risk factors. Low bone mineral density in those patients lead to the development of osteoporosis in those patients. Osteoporosis also worsens COPD and reduce their symptom free survival and reduction in day-to-day activities. However, the occurrence of osteoporosis in COPD patients is not well represented. The main objective is to study the occurrence of low bone mineral density leading to osteoporosis and osteopenia in COPD individuals and to propose various risk Factors leading to its development. This cross-sectional prevalence study was done in a tertiary care hospital in the department of Respiratory medicine over a period of 2 years. 100 diagnosed patients of COPD by spirometry (FEV/FVC &#60; 0.70) according to GOLD guidelines were included in the study. Spirometry was done to group the patients in various grades of airflow obstruction severity and DXA scan of lumbar spine was done with the help of bone densitometer to determine the T-scores and to look for the presence of any reduction in Bone Mineral Density (BMI) satisfying WHO osteoporosis diagnostic guidelines. Among the 100 patients of COPD, 52 patients (52%) had osteoporosis and 22 patients (22%) had osteopenia. Majority of the patients (96.1%) who had osteoporosis were confined to stages 3 and 4 GOLD grading of severity of airflow obstruction. Patients in stages III and IV of airflow obstruction severity were found to have reduction in their bone mineral density. Underweight COPD patients were found to have higher cases of osteoporosis. On analysis; female sex, severe degree of airflow obstruction, Underweight, intake of higher doses of inhalational and oral or systemic corticosteroids, frequent exacerbations and deficiency of 1,25-Dihydrocholecalciferol were observed as risk factors for osteoporosis in COPD patients. In this study, the prevalence of osteoporosis and osteopenia were 52% and 22% respectively in the COPD patients. The risk of acquiring osteoporosis increased with the airflow obstruction severity. Thus, a high index of clinical suspicion and early diagnosis of it is essential to evaluate for osteoporosis in COPD and to treat it early to prevent further disability, morbidity and mortality and to improve the quality of life in COPD patients.

Published: July 2022

Tobacco use is one of the important causes of preventable morbidity & mortality. Worldwide there are 1.1 billion tobacco users with 182 million living in India. College students are highly vulnerable because of their young age, curious mind and adventurous behaviour. Considering potential risk, it was decided to ascertain trend, social risks and correlates of tobacco use among under-graduates in a north Indian town.228 under-graduate students of a college were selected by stratified random sampling and studied during May – July 2018. Institutional approval and individual consent were taken. A pre-tested, structured proforma was introduced to students in small batches to obtain information on demographic traits, smoking habits and smoking related attributing factors. Data obtained was tabulated and statistically analysed.Majority of the students (67.1%) belonged to 21-25 years age. 65.7% were male and 15.79% of them were using tobacco. Girls didn’t indulge in tobacco. Significantly higher proportions of smokers were hostellers, belonged to lower middle class families from rural linage. Smoker’s son indulged in smoking significantly more than son of non-smokers. Imitating smoker father or brother found significantly contributory. 37-60% knew about ill effects of smoking through media or warning on packs.Study showed relatively petite trend with significant cognizance of adverse effects of smoking among collegiate portraying a favourable prospect anew from past observations. Identification of at-risk students is a felt-need and is advocated to be addressed among collegiate through periodic campaign.

Factors Affecting the Application of Human Resources Accounting in Higher Education Institutions: A Field Study at Private Yemeni Universities
Authors: Al-Sorihi Sultan Ali , Abofarea Fatehia Ghilan 
Published: July 2022

This research aimed to examine the most important factors affecting the application of human resources accounting in private Yemeni universities. To achieve this objective, one hundred questionnaires were distributed to the staff of high level management, human resources management, and finance management in private Yemeni universities in the academic year 2015-2016. 74 questionnaires were returned, and all were appropriate for statistical analysis. The multiple regression analysis technique was used to test the research hypotheses. . The major findings of this research revealed that the variable of assets accounting acknowledgment criteria had a significant positive effect on AHRA while the variables of administration awareness of the importance of human resources accounting and the application difficulties had no effect. Therefore, it is recommended that government concerned bodies should take into consideration that the establishments believe in their right to obtain and possess qualified, trained and experienced human resources in return for what is paid to them. This is considered an indicator of economic ownership of human resources, rather than legal ownership. It is also an indication of the criteria of assets acknowledgment, and the culture of disclosure expansion. This would require the development of regulations in the law (99) for the year 1999 concerning accounting and auditing profession to facilitate the use of AHRA in order to take effective and more efficient decisions so as to improve the performance of enterprises and determine the overall benefits to achieve economic stability and social justice in Yemen.

Abstract
The mineralogical and geochemical compositions of the sediments deposited by rivers have been used extensively to evaluate past chemical weathering and the physical erosion history of drainage basins at different time scales. However, the role of sediment sorting in the mineralogical and geochemical compositions of river sediment needs to be better constrained because it could significantly modify proxies used to evaluate weathering intensity in the past. In this study, major and trace element concentrations and mineralogical compositions were determined on seven different grain-size fractions of riverbed samples taken from the Pahang and Kelantan Rivers in the Malay Peninsula. The main aims are to assess chemical weathering and the fractionation of alkali elements during sediment transportation under tropical climate conditions. Fine sediments (from &lt;2 μm to 4-8 μm) were characterized by higher concentrations of Al2O3, P2O5, V, Sc, and Cs than coarse sediments (from 8-16 μm to 32-63 μm). The presence of heavy minerals, such as zircon and monazite, was found to have critical effects on the concentration of several elements (e.g., Zr and Th), leading to extremely high elemental concentrations in the coarse-sediment fractions. Variations in elemental concentrations with particle sizes are mainly attributed to changes in the mineralogical composition during mineral sorting and weathering. In both rivers, the intensity of chemical weathering increased with decreasing grain sizes. However, the relationship between grain size and chemical weathering trends in the Pahang and Kelantan River basins was different in each case due to differences in plagioclase and K-feldspar concentrations, especially in the coarse-sediment fractions (16-32 μm and 32-63 μm). Kaolinite percentage, illite chemistry index, and illite crystallinity were directly proportional to the chemical index of alteration (CIA), suggesting that these mineralogical parameters are suitable proxies for determining chemical weathering intensity in sediments that have undergone significant changes due to mineral sorting during transportation. The comparison of Rb/K and Cs/K ratios and the CIA suggested that K and Rb mainly derive from primary minerals during the process of chemical weathering, whereas Cs is mainly present in fine weathered particles due to the reabsorption of Cs on clay minerals. Overall, our results highlight the relationship of grain size and mineral assemblages to different states of chemical weathering (and alkali fractionation) in tropical river basin sediments. These relationships need to be considered when using mineralogical and geochemical compositions to reconstruct weathering history in a “source to sink” approach.
