Abstract

The use of antibiotics in poultry can encourage antibiotic resistance, one of which is Escherichia coli whichproduces Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamase. Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamase is most produced byEscherichia coli. This study was carried out in a cross sectional descriptive manner aimed to determinethe prevalence of ESBL in Escherichia coli bacteria in layer and broiler chicken farms in Talun andKademangan subdistricts, Blitar district. Samples of 76 cloacal swabs were taken from laying hens andbroilers. Positive isolates of Escherichia coli were tested for antibiotic sensitivity on agar-resistant MuellerHinton agar and Escherichia coli-resistant beta lactam (ampicillin) groups and then confirmed using theDouble Disc Synergy Test, to confirm as Escherichia coli producing ESBL. The results showed a highprevalence of MDR in commercial chicken farms in Blitar district. Escherichia coli has MDR resistanceproperties in Layer Chicken in Talun sub-district by 88.23%, and in Kademangan sub-district by 63.16%,while for Broiler chickens in Talun sub-district by 90% and in Kademangan sub-district by 100%. Theprevalence of Escherichia coli producing ESBL in Kademangan Sub-district was 15.79% and in Talun subdistrict by 5.88%, while in Broiler chickens in Kademangan sub-district was 85%, and in Talun sub-districtthe Escherichia coli producing ESBL was not detected.

Abstract

Background: In a resource constraint nation like India, nurses play an important role in bridging the epilepsytreatment gap. They are not only caregivers but also opinion leaders. So this study has been undertaken tostudy the knowledge, attitude and practices regarding epilepsy among the nursing staff.Material and Methods: A hospital based cross-sectional study was conducted among 213 staff nurses inSouth India for a period of four months using a 50 item questionnaire.Results: In our study very few nurses (8%) had never witnessed an epileptic seizure .Most of them believedto have insufficient experience in taking care of such patients (86%) and were also reluctant to take careof them (28%). Certain negative beliefs like epileptics are sinners, contagious and under the influence ofsupernatural power were still prevailing among them. They practiced administration of oxygen and givinga metallic object in the hands of the patient during an epileptic seizure. Half of them had average to poorknowledge, attitude and practice regarding epilepsy.Conclusion: The study findings show that knowledge, attitude and practice regarding epilepsy is low.This calls for urgent need to include practical as well as theoritical aspects of epilepsy care in the nursingcurriculum and at the same time address the misconceptions linked to it.

Abstract

Aims: This study aims to use 3D imaging (CBCT) in order to identify the presence of anterior mental loop,know its dimensions and variation in anatomy, lingual concavity and the angle of tilt in the mandibular ridgeaiding in better treatment planning for surgical approaches.Method: Forty CBCT images of patients scanned by Planmeca Romexis for different diagnostic purposes,were analyzed using the Romexis software.Results: The study results showed that mental loop was present in 62.5% of patients on the right side and 70%of patients on the left side, with a mean length ranging from 0.30 mm to 3.12 mm. The presence of anteriorcanal was observed in 5 patients (2 Females and 3 Males) 12.5% of the cases examined. As mentioned inmethodology lingual concavity was classified based on its morphology into three classifications: A (Acuteundercut) B (stream line) C (Kidney shape), with class C (Kidney shape) amounting up to 42.5% of the caseswhile the least common was class B (stream line). In 40% of the cases, deepest lingual concavity was in theregion of the second molar.Conclusions: Placement of implants in the molar region of the mandible may result in perforation of thelingual cortex due to severely inclined ridge or deep lingual concavity. Presence of mental loop and anteriormandibular canal in the region of mandibular region needs careful evaluation using different tomographicslices.
