description: Introduction: description of the lifestyles of employees of the Siena University Hospital (Azienda Ospedaliera Universitaria Senese: AOUS), as assessed through a Workplace Health Promotion (WHP) project in the two-year period 2017-18; assessment of possible short-term effects of integrated health promotion interventions in the workplace, within the framework of the Tuscany WHP network, as applied in the AOUS and involving about 1,000 workers. Methods: A cross-sectional study and a pre-post evaluation of data collected by means of anonymous questionnaires in two phases: before the beginning of the programme and after 12 months. Results: 12 months after the start of the programme regarding diet (consumption of fruit and vegetables) and physical activity, the positive effects that emerged were not statistically significant. No differences were observed between the sexes or professional categories. The employees' perception of the programme was satisfactory. Conclusions: albeit within the methodological limits of the assessment, the results showed that the diffusion of some major risk factors for chronic diseases had not decreased after 12 months' exposure to the programme. However, monitoring of these risk factors needs to be continued over a longer period, in order to detect the appearance of the expected changes in the long term. Moreover, it is essential to continue monitoring by sex and professional category, in order to pick out any differences and, if possible, take remedial action. Further studies, in collaboration with the pertinent physicians, are desirable, since integrating data collected during health surveillance with a limited set of indicators of general risk factors may help to promptly identify possible health needs among employees.

description: The enrolment behaviour of potential tertiary students is of great interest to tertiary institutions in Australia who face competition to fill their quotas in a climate of declining tertiary enrolments. Most of the studies on the enrolment behaviour of school leavers and others have been conducted in the United States where the university/college entrance procedures are quite different in the highly stratified tertiary sector. Little is known of the enrolment behaviour of Year 12 students in Australia particularly with respect to a non - metropolitan university. In this study the enrolment behaviour of local Year 12 students and first year students enrolled in the Faculty of Applied Science at Central Queensland University was investigated using a sample survey. The aim of the study was to determine the importance of various factors to the students in their university and course selection processes. Results indicate that the university is not being used as a "safety net" and that institutional characteristics and "significant others" play an important role in university and course selection processes. These findings have significant implications for recruitment and marketing strategies for non -metropolitan universities.

Year: 2019

description: Introduction: Healthcare-associated infections are important events in neonatal intensive care unit. Hand hygiene is considered one of the most important procedures to control these complications. Methods: Healthcare workers procedures for patient’s approaching were directly monitored from February to April 2018 in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of Istituto Giannina Gaslini, Genova, Italy. Number and type of total contacts with patients or “patient unit” (e.g.: ventilator, monitor, incubator) were recorded as well as errors related to lack of hand hygiene after and before performing procedures. Results: A total of 1040 actions were observed on patient or patient unit: 560 actions by nursing staff, 240 by residents and 240 by consultants. The most common misbehaviour was the “double touch” in nursing staff (30%), “glasses, hair or nose” in residents (35%), and “double touch” and “glasses hair or nose” in consultants (25% and 23% respectively). Conclusions: Extemporaneous contact as the more frequent potential “high risk” moment in patient care in NICU.

Osteoporosis guideline awareness among Iranian nurses: results of a knowledge and attitudes survey

description: Introduction: Osteoporosis is a chronic and progressive disease associated with gradual bone loss and elevated risk of fracture. Role of health care professional especially nurses in lowering burden of osteoporosis via patients and public education is critical. Current study conducted to evaluate knowledge and belief regarding osteoporosis among the nurses in orthopedic wards and their experience with national clinical osteoporosis guideline. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from August to December 2016 among all nurses in orthopedic ward of hospitals affiliated to Shiraz University of Medical Sciences. The 23- item self-administered scale consisted of knowledge and belief questions was used. Moreover, data regarding participation in osteoporosis training courses and awareness of the national osteoporosis clinical guideline were collected. The gathered data were analyzed using SPSS (V. 16), p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: From total of 160 nurses, 143 of them completed the questionnaire (response rate: 89.3%). Six nurses (4.2%) had participated in osteoporosis training courses after graduation, and 39 (27.3%) had been aware of the national osteoporosis clinical guideline. The median total knowledge score was 11 out of the maximum of 18 points, and 35.0% of the participants scored above this value. In belief, most of nurses had positive attitude about necessity of osteoporosis screening and patient education. However, only 29 (20.3%) of them confident in giving counselling to public and patients. Conclusion: Our findings reveal that we need more empowered nurses to lowering burden of osteoporosis and its consequences in the future.

description: Objective: Health care providers can effectively participate in oral health promotion for children in primary care setting. Currently, there are no oral health promotion programs that involve primary health care professionals in Qatar. Hence, this study was undertaken to examine the knowledge and attitudes of all health professionals who work in the Well baby Clinics in the primary health centers. Method: A 23-item questionnaire was distributed across 20 primary health centers. The questionnaire sought information on the demographic data of health professionals, their knowledge of oral health and their practices and attitudes towards critical oral health issues. Data were examined by Pearson Chi-squared tests or Fisher’s Exact test(p = 0.05). Results: The response rate of the health professionals was 62.9%. Only 35.7% of the 225 participants received some form of oral health training during their undergraduate programme. The participants would assess the dental problem of the child(p = 0.05) and discuss the importance of tooth brushing with the mother(p = 0.03). A significant number of respondents (p = 0.04) were unlikely to assess the children’s fluoride intake. There was a significant difference in the group of participants that would examine the child’s teeth(p = 0.01) and counsel the mothers on prevention of dental problems(p = 0.01). This group would also refer children to dentist at 12 months of age(p = 0.05). Conclusions: Health professionals had a positive attitude towards the anticipatory guidance elements of oral health. However, the knowledge of healthcare professionals on childhood oral health is rather limited.

description: Sunlight is often considered the most abundant and truly renewable energy resource. Among the technologies available to harness solar energy, photovoltaic conversion of sunlight to electricity – the so called solar cell - is the most popular. Silicon solar cells are nearly omnipresent. However, processing and cost issues drive research into solar cells using newer materials. A promising newcomer is the perovskite solar cells that have comparable efficiencies and lower production costs. The main obstacle to commercialization of perovskite solar cells, however, is their poor stability. The present work focuses on the stability of perovskites used in solar cells.

description: In many culture, traditional medicine used as one of primary health care refined over hundreds or even thousands of years. Historians from all around the world have produced evidence to show that apparently all primitive peoples used traditional medicine often in sophisticated way. In Ethiopia up to 80% of the population uses traditional medicine due to the cultural acceptability of healers and local pharmacopeias, the relatively low cost of traditional medicine and difficult access to modern health facilities. Objective: The aim of this study was to assess traditional medicine utilization and its determinants among parents of children, in Tole Wareda, South West of Oromia, Ethiopia, 2017. Method: A community based quantitative cross sectional study was employed among all parents who have children up to 18 years old. Data were collected using pre-tested structured interviewer administered questionnaire. The study was conducted among 267 households selected by systematic random sampling technique after pre assessment and numbering of <18 years children in the house hold. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used to present the data. Finally, odds ratio, binary and multiple logistic regression were used to analyze the association between dependent and independent variables. Results: It was found that 85.9% of parents had used TM for their children. Herbal medicine, massage and religious/prayer therapy were (34.4%), 55 (25.9%) and 25 (11.8%) used major therapies respectively. Monthly income found medium (500-850) [AOR: 0.25(0.08, 0.78)], cultural belief [AOR: 3.01(1.16, 7.83)], religious belief [AOR= 3.17(1.26, 7.93)] and duration of illness [AOR=3.11(1.07, 9.02)] were associated with parental traditional medicine use for their children in this study. Conclusion and recommendations: Traditional medicine use is highly prevalent in the study area 85.9%. Therefore, the integration of traditional medicine as part of modern medicine should be strengthened. Community education and further research on efficacy and safety of TM should also be done.

description: Background: Good maternal nutrition during pregnancy is important to ensure health for the mother and the fetus. This study aimed to assess nutritional knowledge and behavior among a group of Egyptian pregnant women in addition to identify the factors influencing their nutritional behavior. Methods: This comparative cross sectional study included 300 pregnant women attending the antenatal care clinics in 6th of October University private hospital and El-Hosary primary healthcare (PHC) unit. The data was collected through a modified nutritional survey that was translated from Spanish to Arabic and revised by language experts for clarity. Results: Almost all of the women attending the private hospital were university educated while about half of the women attending the PHC unit were graduated from technical education. In general, the level of knowledge about food requirements of both groups was satisfactory good; however, neither of them fulfilled the WHO recommendations of food intake during pregnancy or the optimum number of meals per day. The average random blood glucose was higher among the women attending the PHC unit; the BMI, mid arm circumference and subcutaneous fat were higher among the same group as well. In regard to fulfilling the WHO recommended servings per day, only starch and fat items were fulfilled by both groups, whereas the other three items (vegetables, fruits, meat and dairy products) were merely included in the diets of both groups. Conclusion: Healthy behavior among pregnant women in both group were influenced by their educational level, occupation as well as their pre-gestational BMI. Those were the only three significant predictive factors, where women with higher education showed an active lifestyle. In addition, women starting with normal BMI before pregnancy had better healthy behaviors including the choice of healthy diets.

Since the experimental evaluation of acute contact toxicity towards honeybees (Apis mellifera) is a complex and expensive assay, the computational models that follow OECD principles for this endpoint prediction represent important alternatives for safety prioritisation of chemicals, especially pesticides. We developed and validated counter-propagation artificial neural network (CPANN) models for in silico evaluation of toxicity of pesticides towards honeybees by using new in-house software. The data set included 254 pesticides with their toxicological experimental values (acute contact toxicity after 48 h of exposure – LD50 [μg/bee]). The 2D structures of compounds were mathematically represented with 56 Dragon molecular descriptors (MDs). The two-category models were developed to separate compounds as toxic or non-toxic for two different thresholds: (i) toxic when LD50 < 1 μg/bee and (ii) toxic when LD50 < 100 μg/bee. The models give reliable predictions in an external validation set and cover a large structural space. They were applied to a structurally diverse data set of 395 experimentally untested pesticides; 19% of them were predicted as highly toxic towards bees.

description: A protocol to work on the «Cybertory» virtual laboratory at Biomodel.UAH.es Plant resistance is commonly presented as a monogenic inherited trait (either dominant or recessive). Such traits may be incorporated using the backcross method for genetic improvement. Improvement assisted by molecular markers facilitates detection in the field of individuals carrying the resistance, without resorting to other tests that require more time and resources. The proposal in this experiment is to identify tomato seedlings that present the Mi-1 gene, which confers resistance to nematodes, aphids and whiteflies. Objective: To employ primers specific for the Mi-1 and mi-1 alleles in order to analyse the genotype of problem samples in order to identify individuals that are dominant homocygotic (resistant), recessive homozygotic (susceptible) and heterozygotic (resistant).

description: This thesis assesses the adaptation of commuter cyclist’s day-to-day travel behaviour, particularly in response to changes in weather. Results show that commuter’s cycling volumes were influenced by changes in rain, temperature and wind. Commuter cyclists in different cities had different sensitivities toward changes in weather parameters. The weather, activities before or after work and availability of end-of-trip facilities were found to highly influence commuter’s cycling decisions. Results reveal that various social and psychological factors, including attitudinal beliefs and the key social groups, impacted commuter’s cycling decisions. The findings are used to identify practical suggestions to encourage commuter cycling.

description: Background: Liver cancer (LC) is ranked seventh common cancer in terms of the incidence; and third in terms of the mortality in the world. The aim of this study was to investigate the international distribution of the incidence and mortality of LC in 2012 based on various socio-economic and political divisions in the world. Material and methods: This study was conducted with the use of the incidence and mortality cancer data from GLOBOCAN Project in 2012. The Age-Standardized Incidence Rate (ASIR) and Age Standardized Mortality Rate (ASMR) of LC were expressed per 100,000 people. In the current report, we used Pearson correlation method to assess the correlation between ASIR and ASMR. Statistical significance was considered to be P<0.05. All P-values reported in this study are two-sided. Also, statistical analyses were performed using SPSS (Version 16.0, SPSS Inc.). Results: The highest ASIR and ASMR of LC occurred in Asia (ASIR=13.3 and ASMR=12.6), less developed regions (ASIR=12 and ASMR=11.5), and Western Pacific Region of WHO (ASIR=20.4 and ASMR=19.1), and those regions with medium HDI (ASIR=14.6 and ASMR=14.1). Furthermore, the lowest ASIR and ASMR of LC occurred in Europe (ASIR=4.3 and ASMR=3.9), the more developed regions (ASIR=5.4 and ASMR=4.6), the EURO region (ASIR=4.3 and ASMR=4), and regions with high HDI (ASIR=3.8 and ASMR=4.1). Conclusion: The highest ASIR and ASMR of LC occurred in regions with a medium HDI, in WPRO, less developed regions of the world and Asia. The incidence of LC had a very gentle upward trend in most regions of the world from 1975 to 2010.

description: Introduction: To evaluate the aetiology of neonatal invasive diseases (positive cultures from blood or cerebrospinal fluid) due to bacteria other than coagulase-negative staphylococci in a large third-level centre and compare with results of surveillance cultures. Methods: Retrospective analysis of microbiological data of children admitted in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) of a large third-level centre from 2005 to 2018. Results: 230 bacterial strains, 223 from blood and 7 from CSF, were detected as cause of invasive infections, while 152 were detected in surveillance cultures. Methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) was the most frequently isolated pathogen both in invasive infections (18%) and colonizations (23%) followed by Escherichia coli (16% on invasive disease and 20% of colonizations). Other common bacteria include Enterococcus faecalis and Streptococcus agalactiae for invasive disease and Meticillin-resistant Stapylococcus aureus (MRSA) with regard to colonization. Disease was due to a pathogen detected in surveillance cultures flora in 33%. In more than 50% of invasive diseases the identified pathogen was not present in surveillance cultures. Conclusion: The high percentage of invasive infections due to bacteria not previously identified in surveillance cultures raises doubts about the efficiency of this procedure and highlights the need to search for alternative infection sources. This finding and the high prevalence of invasive infections due to nosocomial pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus could be the result of horizontal transmission between patients through the hands of health care professionals, emphasizing once again the importance of applying stringent hand hygiene procedures and isolation standards.

description: In this thesis, cyclic tests have been performed on Mg alloy to measure the twinning activity during cyclic loading. During cyclic loading, anelastic behaviour is observed which leads to the formation of hysteresis loops. A new method is developed to quantify the anelastic strain during cyclic loading. The mechanism of twin formation varies with different grain sizes and loading conditions. For the first time, large scale microscopy at consecutive strains is used to correlate the deformed microstructure of cyclically loaded magnesium to the starting orientation. The quasi in situ EBSD method has been used to thoroughly examine the microstructural evolution of magnesium alloys during plastic deformation. This work has the potential to contribute to the design of biomedical implants which experience cyclic loading during use.
Higher-order baryon number susceptibilities: interplay between the chiral and the nuclear liquid-gas transitions

description: We use an improved version of the SU(3) flavour parity-doublet quark-hadron model to investigate the higher order baryon number susceptibilities near the chiral and the nuclear liquid-gas transitions. The parity-doublet model has been improved by adding higher-order interaction terms of the scalar fields in the effective mean field Lagrangian, resulting in a much-improved description of nuclear ground-state properties, in particular the nuclear compressibility. The resulting phase diagram of the model agrees qualitatively with expectations from lattice QCD, i.e., it shows a crossover at zero net baryo-chemical potential and a critical point at finite density. Using this model, we investigate the dependence of the higher-order baryon number susceptibilities as function of temperature and chemical potential. We observe a strong interplay between the chiral and liquid-gas transition at intermediate baryo chemical potentials. Due to this interplay between the chiral and the nuclear liquid-gas transitions, the experimentally measured cumulants of the net baryon number may show very different beam energy dependence, subject to the actual freeze-out temperature.
