A descriptive narrative on the current situation against the gold standards regarding institutionalisation of national monitoring and evaluation system for Botswana and Zimbabwe
Authors: Makadzange Panganai F. 
Published: February 2022

Background: Literature demonstrates that when it comes to institutionalising national monitoring and evaluation (ME) systems, some African countries such as South Africa, Benin and Uganda are quite advanced. In the new millennium, more countries such as Zimbabwe and Botswana engaged in similar processes. However, there is still little documentation on such processes. This article thus attempts to bridge the documentation gap.Objectives: To explore the current standing of Zimbabwe and Botswana against the gold standards of institutionalisation of national ME systems.Method: An exploratory study design was used to estimate the level of institutionalisation of the two national ME systems. An International Atlas of Evaluation framework originally developed in year 2002, by three scholars namely Furubo, Rist and Sandahl was adopted as a guiding framework for the research. An online survey method was employed to gather the required quantitative data. Data analysis was carried out through the International Atlas of Evaluation assessment tool and the scores to determine the level of institutionalisation were generated. The output was displayed through graphs and tables.Results: Overall, while Botswana received a score of 48% on the International Atlas of Evaluation scale, Zimbabwe got 53%. These scores indicate that the two countries have attained a rather average level of institutionalisation and are still lacking in terms of meeting the expected gold standards.Conclusion: There is significant progress in both countries towards fully institutionalising their national ME systems. However, more is yet to be realised before attaining the expected gold standards. It is recommended that both countries emulate and leverage on those African countries with much more advanced national ME systems such as South Africa.

Litter dynamics is one of the fundamental processes for the growth and maintenance of native forest fragments, being considered the main pathway for nutrient cycling in forests. Studies on litter production and nutrient content therefore provide insights that provide a better understanding of nutrient dynamics. This study identifies the seasonality and meteorological conditions that influence the quantity and return of nutrients through litter in an Atlantic Forest fragment. Litter sampling was carried out monthly in 12 permanent plots. Each plot contained 5 littertraps distributed systematically. The litter was classified, and the dry mass and nutrients in the leaves and branches and miscellaneous fractions was quantified. Seasonal behavior was observed, with the highest depositions in the winter season. The average annual production was 6.78 Mg ha-1, with 64.9% being composed of leaves. The mean annual nutrient intake was 135.1, 115.7, 39.7, 23.5, 17.6 and 4.6 kg ha-1 for Ca, N, K, Mg, S and P, respectively. The meteorological variable precipitation influenced the deposition pattern. The increase in nutrient-use efficiency in the second year compared to the first indicates that plants strategically may be re-translocating relative amounts of their nutrients under water stress conditions.

Abstract
Objective: To determine the immunophenotypic pattern and aberrant expression of myeloid antigens in newly diagnosed patients of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia(ALL).
Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out in Haematology / Pathology department, Army Medical College, National University of Medical Sciences (NUMS) in collaboration with Immunology and Haematology departments of Armed Forces Institute of Pathology (AFIP), Rawalpindi from 1st January, 2019 to 31st December, 2019. Seventy-three (73) recently diagnosed patients of Acute Lymphoblastic leukaemia of all age groups and both genders were included in the study. A proforma was used to note demographic data. CBC, cytochemical stains and bone marrow examinations were carried out and assessed for morphology and percentage of blasts using a microscope. Flow cytometry was used to perform immunophenotyping on samples of peripheral blood and bone marrow, using a standard panel.
Results: The most commonly expressed markers were weak CD45, TdT, CD19, CD10 and HLA-DR. Weak CD45 was present in almost all blast cells and there was no remarkable difference in its positivity among various subtypes of ALL. Myeloid expression was observed in 13 (17.8%) cases. CD13 and CD33 were aberrantly expressed in 11% and 12.3% of all cases of ALL respectively.
Conclusion: Expression of aberrant myeloid CD markers in acute lymphocytic leukaemia has prognostic significance and should be documented during lineage assignment of acute leukemias while performing immunophenotyping.
Keywords: Immunophenotyping, ALL, Aberrant expression.

Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices on Pesticide among Farmers in the Philippines
Authors: Lu Jinky Leilanie 
Published: February 2022

Introduction. Pesticides are widely used in the agricultural sector to increase production by cutting down costs and improving the quality of produce. However, these chemicals come with serious health effects when an individual is exposed to large quantities at once, or low quantities over time.
Objectives. The objective of the study is to investigate the knowledge, attitude, and practices of farmers, as well as investigate the correlation among knowledge, attitude, and practice variables.
Methods. This research study used a cross-sectional design. Samples were drawn based on a multistage sampling of 387 agricultural workers. The target site was in Southern Philippines and the sample was selected using multi-stage sampling from the identified municipalities. Survey questionnaires were given to the respondents to measure knowledge, attitude, and practices (KAP) on pesticide exposure among farmers. The data were encoded using SPSS 13.0. The statistics used were both descriptive and inferential. Correlation analysis was used to study the relationship among knowledge, attitudes, and practices.
Results. The results showed that farmers used pesticides in their farms on an average of 2.31 days per week (SD 2.13). The respondents reported that they were exposed to pesticides for about 3.46 months per cropping season (SD: 2.76), as well as from 3.34 (SD 5.92) cropping seasons per year. The mean score of the respondents on the knowledge aspect of the questionnaire was 5.91 out of 10 items (SD 3.28). The average score on practices on pesticide use among respondents was 3.37 (SD 1.75) with 8 items to evaluate practices. Lastly, the mean score on attitude on pesticide use among respondents was 5.34 (SD 3.31) over 12 items. Analysis showed a moderate correlation between knowledge and attitude with Pearson’s r = 0.651 (P <0.0001), also a moderate correlation between knowledge and practices at r = 0.521 (P <0.0001), and a moderate correlation between practices and attitudes at r = 0.443 (P <0.0001). Factor analysis revealed three components for items within practices and attitudes and two for items within knowledge.
Conclusion. Pesticide use in the Philippines continues to present various challenges in terms of its safety to humans and the environment. Farmers do not have adequate knowledge of pesticides and their proper management from use to disposal. They need to improve knowledge, encourage a healthy and safe attitude and correct practices on the hazards from pesticides, as well as its proper usage and handling. It is recommended that capacity building and training for farmers are initiated to address inadequacies in their knowledge, attitudes and practices.
Road Traffic Injuries among Women Brought to the Largest Tertiary Hospital in the Philippines
Authors: Lu Jinky Leilanie , Lu Sophia Francesca D. 
Published: February 2022

Introduction. Road traffic accidents are a growing public health burden, especially in the low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). With resource scarcity, road traffic injuries may lead to poor quality of life among survivors, or deaths at worst. Victims of crashes involving transportations are gendered; therefore, there may be differences in the trends and characteristics of injuries sustained by men and women related to road crash.
Objectives. This study aimed to determine the factors related to severity of road crashes among women road users in the Philippines from 2008 to 2017.
Methods. We conducted a retrospective review of clinical records of women patients involved in road crash at the Trauma Division, Department of Surgery of the Philippine General Hospital (PGH) for the ten-year period, January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2017. Data were extracted from the electronic patient records in Integrated Surgical Information System (ISIS).
Results. From 2008 to 2017, 926 of the road crash victims brought to PGH were women. There was an increasing trend, with the years 2015 to 2017 accounting for half of the total cases (55.62%). The highest cases of women patient admissions were also recorded during the months of June and July (5.61%). The CALABARZON region (11.23%) and National Capital Region (8.21%) had the highest admissions. The patients were most commonly pedestrians (12.20%) and involved in collisions (13.50%) or vehicle involvement (13.17%). The most common vehicle involved was a motorcycle (9.72%) followed by car and vans (1.62%). Only a small proportion of women patients used helmets (3.33%) and seatbelts (0.12%). The median length of hospital stay of women patients was 5 days. The most commonly sustained injuries among patients were multiple (83.65%), external (43.72%), extremity (33.15%), head and neck (23.47%), and face (21.58%) injuries. Among these, injuries to the extremity had the highest average length of hospital stay (16.04 ± 31.28 days) while external and head and neck injuries had the shortest (10.81 ± 33.42 days). Multinomial regression showed that women patients who suffered from head and neck, and abdominal injuries had increased odds of dying by 4.94 times (CI: 2.158-11.302, p < 0.05), and 3.33 times (CI:1.235-9.02, p < 0.05), respectively, compared to those who did not suffer said injuries.
Conclusion. There is a significant number of women involved in road crashes in the Philippines, and therefore, there is a need for directed policies on female road users as vulnerable road users.

Published: February 2022

Introdução
As cefaleias primárias e secundárias atingem em torno de 60% das crianças e adolescentes, e cerca de 80% deles possuem comorbidades.
Objetivo
Avaliar a prevalência de diagnóstico e comorbidades de crianças e adolescentes com cefaleias atendidos em um hospital terciário nos últimos cinco anos.
Material E Métodos
Estudo retrospectivo, baseado na revisão de prontuários de crianças e adolescentes atendidas no Ambulatório de Cefaleia Infantil localizado no HCFMRP/USP entre os anos de 2016 e 2021. O estudo foi aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa Local (CAAE: 45631321.0.0000.5440). Os pacientes foram classificados de acordo com a idade, como crianças (CR; <12 anos) e adolescentes (AD; 12 a 18 anos). As comorbidades apresentadas foram classificadas de acordo com o tipo de doença. Os dados foram analisados utilizando o programa Microsoft Corporation® Excel.
Resultados
Foram analisados 242 prontuários, sendo que 54% da amostra eram crianças (8,7 anos, DP 2,0) e 46% adolescentes (14,4 anos, DP 1,8). Os indivíduos foram diagnosticados com migrânea (CR 80,7%; AD 74,2%), cefaleia tensional (CR 2,3%; AD 1,8%) e cefaleias secundárias (CR 6,2%; AD 6,8%). Pacientes com mais de um diagnóstico foram classificados com cefaleia mista (CR 4,6%; AD 12,6%), e aqueles sem diagnóstico definido, com diagnóstico inconclusivo (CR 6,2%; AD 4,6%). As principais comorbidades observadas nas crianças foram distúrbios do sono (25,6%) e doenças respiratórias (23,3%), como a rinite. Já em adolescentes, além das doenças respiratórias (23,1%) e distúrbios do sono (19,8%), as doenças neurológicas (23,1%) como a epilepsia, também foram altamente prevalentes.
Conclusão
A prevalência de migrânea se destaca tanto em crianças quanto em adolescentes. Quanto às comorbidades, as doenças respiratórias e os distúrbios do sono foram comuns em crianças e em adolescentes, e doenças neurológicas apresentaram alta prevalência apenas entre os adolescentes.

A disfunção temporomandibular (DTM) é uma condição musculoesquelética e neuromuscular de etiologia multifatorial. Está frequentemente associada à comorbidades dolorosas (cefaleias primárias, por exemplo) e à cefaleia atribuída à DTM (cDTM). Hábitos orais parafuncionais em vigília (HOV) podem influenciar essas condições dolorosas, piorando o prognóstico e aumentando a refratariedade ao tratamento. O objetivo deste estudo transversal foi investigar a associação entre DTM, HOV, migrânea (Mg), cDTM e sintomas de depressão e ansiedade. A DTM foi classificada de acordo com o RDC/TMD, as variáveis sociodemográficas foram classificadas de acordo com os critérios do IBGE, a presença e frequência de HOV, os sintomas de depressão e de ansiedade foram coletados por meio de questionário. A Mg foi identificada de acordo com os critérios da Classificação Internacional de Cefaleias – 3ª. Edição, e a cDTM de acordo com os critérios de Schiffman et al. (2014). A amostra, composta por 117 indivíduos com 20 a 65 anos de idade, foi estratificada em 4 grupos para estudos de associação: Controles; DTM; DTM+Mg; DTM+Mg+cDTM. As mulheres apresentaram DTM e cefaleias com maior frequência que os homens (p<0,001). Houve associação significante entre maior grau de incapacidade relacionada à dor crônica da DTM e os grupos (p<0,0001). A regressão logística multinomial apontou que na presença de maior frequência de HOV, os indivíduos tinham maiores chances de ter as 3 condições dolorosas simultaneamente (Odds Ratio (OR)=3,23; IC = [1,06-9,81]. O hábito de apertar os dentes em vigília aumentou as chances de os indivíduos apresentarem DTM+Mg e DTM+Mg+cDTM (OR=1,81; IC= [1,25-2,64]). Os resultados demonstram que a presença e a frequência dos HOV podem interferir na relação entre a DTM e as cefaleias, piorando o prognóstico e aumentando a chance de comorbidade entre estas patologias.

Published: February 2022

Introdução
A fonofobia é um sintoma comum e compõe o critério diagnóstico de migrânea, no entanto a hiperacusia ainda foi pouco estudada no contexto da migrânea.
Objetivo
Avaliar a prevalência e os preditores de hiperacusia em pacientes com migrânea.
Metodologia
Estudo prospectivo do tipo caso-controle composto por pacientes com migrânea. Os participantes responderam entrevista estruturada sobre dados demográficos, antropométricos e características clínicas da migrânea. Também responderam questionários validados sobre depressão (IDB), ansiedade (STAIY2), incapacidade (MIDAS), alodinia (ASC-12) e ao questionário de hiperacusia. Foi considerado que o participante tinha hiperacusia quando tivesse pontuação ≥22 no questionário de hiperacusia. A pesquisa foi aprovada pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa (n° 3.029.972).
Resultados
O questionário foi respondido por 276 pacientes com migrânea, dos quais 237 do sexo feminino, 171 com migrânea episódica e 106 com aura. Em análise univariadas a hiperacusia foi associada a migrânea crônica (OR=2,28; p=0,001), fonofobia (OR=2,56; p=0,017), osmofobia (OR=2,97; p<0,001), alodinia (OR=2,91; p<0,001), ansiedade (OR=10,57; p=0,007), depressão (OR2,89; p=0,002) e incapacidade relacionada a migrânea (OR=2,81; p=0,002). Após regressão logística binária, permaneceram associados a hiperacusia: a forma crônica da migrânea (OR=2,03; p=0,019), osmofobia (OR=2,2; p=0,022) e maior incapacidade relacionada a migrânea (OR=2,5; p=0,022). Idade, gênero, obesidade, aura e fotofobia não se associaram a hiperacusia.
Conclusão
A forma crônica, osmofobia e maior incapacidade foram preditores de hiperacusia em indivíduos com migrânea.
