Published: May 2022

Introduction: Minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) is gaining preference nowadays compared to other treatment modalities for diaphyseal fracture of the humerus. We have evaluated the functional and radiological outcome of diaphyseal humeral shaft fracture with the MIPO technique.
Methods: A hospital-based prospective study was conducted on 23 adult patients with diaphyseal fracture of the humerus and treated with the Minimally Invasive Percutaneous Plate Osteosynthesis (MIPO) technique. In all cases, 4.5mm locking compression plates were applied. Clinical and radiological evaluation was done at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months.
Results: Out of 23 patients, the mean age of patients was 40.3 years. The maximum number of cases were caused due to road traffic accidents 14 (60.9%). The left side was commonly affected with a maximum number of them being Type A fracture 13 (56%) as per AO/OTA classification. The mean operative time was 106 minutes and fracture union was achieved in all patients by the end of 20 weeks (mean 14.83 weeks). In the study group, 1 patient had superficial infection with no evidence of iatrogenic radial nerve injury or implant failure. Shoulder and elbow ROM was restored to normal range.
Conclusion: MIPO is a safe and effective technique for the management of diaphyseal humerus fractures, with early fracture healing, less risk of complications such as superficial or deep infection, implant failure, and iatrogenic radial nerve injury, along with a cosmetically acceptable scar.
Diagnostic Accuracy of Ultrasonography in Detecting Ureteric Calculi in Patients with Renal Colic Taking Non-Contrast Multidetector Computerized Tomography of Kidney, Ureter, and Bladder (CT KUB) as the Gold Standard

Published: May 2022

Introduction: The goal of this study is to find the sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography in detecting ureteric calculi in patients with renal colic taking NECT KUB as the gold standard.
Methods: All patients with acute renal colic presenting in the radiology department for ultrasonography and NECT KUB were enrolled in the study. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography in detecting ureteric calculi were calculated by taking NECT KUB as the gold standard test.
Results: A total of 88 patients were enrolled in the study. The mean age was 37 years. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography for the detection of ureteric calculi were found to be 85.8 %, 80 %, 97.1 %, 42.1 %, and 85.2 % respectively in the present study.
Conclusion: Ultrasonography shows high sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of ureteric calculi. It is a cheap, non-invasive, and easily available modality and there is no risk of radiation exposure. NECT KUB should be reserved for that patient for whom ultrasonography is not able to give a diagnosis.
Diagnosis and management of ectopic ureter in a low resource setting – A case series
Authors: Heywood Shirley , Shrestha Shuvechchha Dewa 
Published: May 2022

Aims: To review the experience of women and girls treated for ectopic ureter in Surkhet through the fistula camps and Fistula Treatment Centre and analyse the diagnostic method, management and outcome.
Methods: This was a retrospective study of the patients with ectopic ureter who received treatment in Surkhet since 2009. Data were analysed from patient records and interviews.
Results: Seven patients were diagnosed with ectopic ureter over a period of 12 years. Five patients were prepubertal with age range of 7 - 15 years. History of continuous incontinence with normal voiding was suggestive of ureteric fistula in six out of seven cases. The seventh case had massive ureterocele in the distal end of the duplex right ureter. Ultrasound suggested a diagnosis of duplex collecting system in five cases. IVU or CT IVU suggested duplex ureter in only three cases. Diagnosis was confirmed by examination under anaesthesia after i.v. frusemide in six cases. All cases were managed by implantation of the ectopic ureter into the bladder. In the case with ureterocele heminephrectomy was performed. All seven patients are well at follow-up between 6 months and five years after presentation.
Conclusion: Ectopic ureter is a treatable cause of urinary incontinence and the diagnosis may be overlooked. A lifelong history of continuous urinary leakage with normal voiding, in absence of trauma or surgical procedure should raise the suspicion. Examination under anaesthetic and ultrasound proved most effective in confirming the diagnosis
Pengelolaan Dana Desa Untuk Peningkatan Kesejahteraan Masyarakat di Desa Kandangan Kabupaten Temanggung Tahun 2016 - 2018

Published: May 2022

Berdasarkan Pasal 25 Peraturan Menteri Keuangan Nomor 247/PMK.07/2015 tentang Tata Cara Pengalokasian, Penyaluran, Penggunaan, Pemantauan dan Evaluasi Dana Desa yang pada dasarnya penggunaan Dana Desa ini diprioritaskan untuk pembangunan dan pemberdayaan Desa dalam realisasinya belum berkorelasi dengan peningkatan kesejahteraan masyarakat. Hal ini setidaknya bisa dilihat dari data kemiskinan di Desa Kandangan, Kecamatan Kandangan, Kabupaten Temanggung yang tidak mengalami perubahan sejak tahun 2016 sampai dengan 2018. Angka kemiskinan tahun 2016 sebesar 551 KK, tahun 2017 mencapai 531 KK hingga akhir 2018 angka ini tidak berubah. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode normatif. Pendekatan penelitian dilakukan secara statute approach. Sumber data secara Primer (wawancara, peraturan perundangan) dan sekunder (kepustakaan). Teknik pengambilan data dilakukan secara studi pustaka, wawancara, observasi. Analisis data mengacu pada beberapa tahapan yang dijelaskan Miles dan Huberman.
Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dapat diketahui bahwa program pemberdayaan masyarakat saat ini belum mampu meningkatkan kesejahteraan masyarakat. Terbukti dari angka kemiskinan yang tidak berubah. Peneliti melihat program-program diatas tidak efektif dan belum tepat sasaran. Memang telah ada home industry, usaha mandiri masyarakat namun pihak pemerintah desa hanya membantu sebatas promosi saja. Padahal apabila menilik pada dana desa yang digunakan sebebsar 22% dari anggaran maka seharusnya anggaran tersebut mampu memberikan dampak walaupun sedikit. Artinya, perlu beberapa koreksi dan evaluasi rincian kegiatan pemberdayaan masyarakat. Dengan melihat faktor lingkungan, masyarakat dan menjalin pihak-pihak lain. Solusi yang dapat ditempuh adalah mengevaluasi pemerintahan desa dan membuka forum melibatkan warga yang terfokus pada pemberdayaan masyarakat. Sebisa mungkin program pemberdayaan masyarakat harus berkelanjutan atau sustainable. Program harus terfokus pada produk home industry yang ada di Desa Kandangan mengingat potensi dari kegiatan tersebut mampu memberikan nilai positif dan menjalin stakeholder
IMPLIKATUR KONVENSIONAL DAN NON KONVENSIONAL TUTURAN PENGUNJUNG KAWASAN LAWANG SEWU SEMARANG JAWA TENGAH
Authors: Arifianti Ika 
Published: May 2022

<p>The speech of visitors of the Lawang Sewu Semarang is very interesting to study, because the average Lawang Sewu visitors come from outside of Semarang with diverse languages and social and educational backgrounds. The way they deliver utterances is very diverse. The use of implicature in language does not mean that it is not intentional or does not have a specific function. The use of implicature in language has considerations such as to refine speech, maintain ethics of politeness, to insinuate subtly (indirectly), and to avoid offending directly. In implicative speech, the speaker and the interlocutor must have the same concept in a context. There are conventional implicative forms of speech by visitors of Lawang Sewu area. Conventional implications are the meanings of utterances that are conventionally or generally accepted by the public. The approach used in this study is twofold, namely the theoretical research approach of nonconventional implications as expressions that imply something different from the actual and methodological esearch approach. The theoretical approach is used to test pragmatic analysis as the study. The methodological research approach used is descriptive-qualitative method.</p>

Published: May 2022

Introduction: Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), which is one of the adjuvant therapy strategies, has been started to be used in critically ill COVID-19 patients due to its anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects.
Material and Method: In our study, it was aimed to evaluate the effect of IVIG used in critically ill COVID-19 patients in the intensive care unit on early laboratory findings and late lung damage. Twenty-two critically ill COVID-19 patients who met the inclusion criteria were included in the study. Laboratory data of the patients who received 0.4 gr/kg/day IVIG for 5 days were analyzed before the treatment and on the 1st and 5th days of the treatment. For the percentage of injured lung areas was evaluated with chest CT.
Results: Respiratory rate and CRP decreased with IVIG, while an increase was observed in PaO2/FiO2, WBC, lymphocyte count, D-Dimer and fibrinogen values, which was statistically significant (p
Histopathological examination of the placenta after delivery in pregnant women with COVID-19

Published: May 2022

Introduction: COVID-19 is a viral disease generated by a new coronavirus named SARS-CoV-2. The consequences of this virus on the human placenta and the newborn are still unclear. IL-6 can disturb the placenta's immunological homeostasis and be employed as an inflammatory marker for the poor prognosis of COVID-19 infection. Bax has some features like being a key protein regulating apoptotic mechanisms and plays an important role in both maintaining dynamic balance and integrity in the placenta as in many tissues. This study aims to indicate the impact of COVID-19 on inflammation and apoptotic pathways in the placenta by using IL-6 and Bax antibodies.
Material and Method: COVID-19 positive (n:10) and COVID-19 negative (n:10) normotensive placentas were included. Haematoxylin-eosin staining and immunohistochemical staining (IL-6 and Bax antibodies) were applied. Statistical data of immunohistochemical (IL-6 and Bax expression) staining results were assessed by analyzing the H-score. Biochemical parameters were recorded. Group means were analyzed with a nonparametric Kruskal Wallis Test.
Results: In the COVID-19 group, increased syncytial knots, fibrin deposition, inflammation, fibrinoid necrosis, neutrophil accumulation were observed. The COVID-19 group had considerably higher levels of IL-6 and Bax expression than the control group. Furthermore, COVID-19 patients had statistically lower WBC and higher CRP values than normotensive patients.
Conclusion: COVID-19 has been linked to placental inflammation and trophoblast cell damage, both of which can result in major maternal and fetal problems during pregnancy. We found intense IL-6 expression in the placentas of pregnant women with COVID-19 infection. A rise in IL-6 levels triggers CRP production, and this increase is linked to the severity of COVID-19 as a risk factor. Also, we suggested that COVID-19 infection triggers the apoptotic process in placental tissue by increasing the expression of the proapoptotic Bax protein. It is clinically very significant to follow up COVID-19 positive pregnancies for maternal and fetal health. During this follow-up, IL-6 and Bax expression levels in the placenta, together with histopathological findings and serum CRP levels, can guide the evaluation of the prognosis, severity and response to treatment of the disease.

BACKGROUND: Technology in recent times has shown exciting advancements. These advancements have been implemented in healthcare settings to improve therapeutic outcomes. Within the domain of communication disorders, stuttering has witnessed the implementation of a wide variety of technological interventions. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the current status of technology-based stuttering intervention programs, their advantages and disadvantages, and a few directions for future research. AIM: This review aimed to systematically identify the technologies used in stuttering intervention and explore the effect of these interventions on dysfluencies in stuttering. METHOD: We followed the conventional systematic review process and searched six electronic databases using relevant keywords. We included intervention studies published since 1990 on individuals diagnosed with developmental stuttering. In addition, all studies that used technological intervention such as device(s), computer programs, and mobile phone applications were included. RESULT: Fifty-nine studies were included after a thorough eligibility check. The major categories of technological rehabilitation include telehealth technology, software programs, biofeedback, virtual reality, video-self modeling, neuromodulation, and altered auditory feedback. In general, the results show a beneficial effect of technological intervention in reducing stuttering. Further, this review identifies reduction of the duration and minimal to no side effects with such intervention technologies in stuttering. Finally, the percentage of stuttered syllables (%SS) emerged as the most common outcome measure in technology-based intervention in stuttering. CONCLUSION: A wide variety of technological applications have been implemented in stuttering intervention. Regardless of type, all the studies that aimed to examine the effect of the technological intervention on stuttering reported positive outcomes. This review highlights technology-based stuttering intervention programs’ current status and their impact on stuttering dysfluencies. Further, it highlights several advantages and disadvantages of implementing technology-based interventions, and a few directions for future research.

Published: May 2022

BACKGROUND: Children with cerebral palsy (CP) have disorders of posture and movement and which can limit physical activities such as walking OBJECTIVE: This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) combined with robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) on walking ability in children with CP and clarify the most effective degree of weight reduction. METHODS: Sixty CP children were recruited and randomly allocated into four different groups. The control group received conventional physical therapy (n= 15), and task groups performed VR combined with RAGT with 15% (Group A, n= 15) /30% (Group B, n= 15) /45% (Group C, n= 15) weight loss. All participants were given 50 min of therapy per session four times a week for 12 weeks and were assessed pre-and post-test with the surface electromyography (EMG), the Modified Ashworth Scale, the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) dimension E and D, and Six-Minute Walking Test (6-MWT). RESULTS: All indicators had improved significantly in each group after the intervention (P< 0.05). The result of our study demonstrated that the more effective impacts of VR combined with RAGT on walking ability compared to the control group (P< 0.05), and 30% of weight loss had the best improvement in CP children (P< 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: VR combined RAGT can effectively improve walking ability in children with CP, especially when the weight loss is 30%.
Digital phenotyping in psychiatry: A scoping review
Authors: Chia Alex Z.R. , Zhang Melvyn W.B. 
Published: May 2022

BACKGROUND: Digital phenotyping has been defined as the moment-by-moment assessment of an illness state through digital means, promising objective, quantifiable data on psychiatric patients’ conditions, and could potentially improve diagnosis and management of mental illness. As it is a rapidly growing field, it is to be expected that new literature is being published frequently. OBJECTIVE: We conducted this scoping review to assess the current state of literature on digital phenotyping and offer some discussion on the current trends and future direction of this area of research. METHODS: We searched four databases, PubMed, Ovid MEDLINE, PsycINFO and Web of Science, from inception to August 25th, 2021. We included studies written in English that 1) investigated or applied their findings to diagnose psychiatric disorders and 2) utilized passive sensing for management or diagnosis. Protocols were excluded. A narrative synthesis approach was used, due to the heterogeneity and variability in outcomes and outcome types reported. RESULTS: Of 10506 unique records identified, we included a total of 107 articles. The number of published studies has increased over tenfold from 2 in 2014 to 28 in 2020, illustrating the field’s rapid growth. However, a significant proportion of these (49% of all studies and 87% of primary studies) were proof of concept, pilot or correlational studies examining digital phenotyping’s potential. Most (62%) of the primary studies published evaluated individuals with depression (21%), BD (18%) and SZ (23%) (Appendix 1). CONCLUSION: There is promise shown in certain domains of data and their clinical relevance, which have yet to be fully elucidated. A consensus has yet to be reached on the best methods of data collection and processing, and more multidisciplinary collaboration between physicians and other fields is needed to unlock the full potential of digital phenotyping and allow for statistically powerful clinical trials to prove clinical utility.
