Abstract

Dengue infection is a global health problem. One of the city in Indonesia that has a high incident of DHFis Baubau City, especially the area of Meo-Meo Public Health Center in 2016 to 2018 ranked first of theincident of DHF respectively for three years among 10 Public Health Center on the coastal area and thirdamong 17 Public Health Center in Baubau City. DHF cases are not only caused by mosquitoes, but alsoby human behavior that does not carry out healthy and indifferent lifestyles in the environment wheremosquitoes nest. Such behavior includes leaving the hanging used clothes, does not drain the tub, leavingpuddle around the residence. This study involved 39 people in the intervention group and also in the controlgroup who met the criteria including the age of 17-65 years old, can read, write, and communicate well,and willing to participate in this study. The result indicates a significant from the intervention groups to thecontrol group (p< 0.05), is action (p=0.001), and the difference in the percentage of action in both groups.So, it can concluded that interpersonal communication is more influential than counseling on increasingDHF prevention action.

Abstract

Background: The objective of the present study was to assess the accuracy of age estimation from TCI ofmandibular molars (except wisdom teeth) of both sides using CBCT images of known age and sex, so thatwe can apply this method to estimate age in both living individuals and skeletal material of unknown age.Methods: A cross sectional retrospective study was conducted on a total of 100 CBCT images of subjectswho were referred to the department for varied diagnostic purposes of known age and gender. All CBCTimages with a fully visible pulp cavity were selected. Two measurements were taken at two different levels.Height of the crown (CH) and height of the coronal pulp cavity (CPCH). Then tooth – coronal index (TCI)for each tooth was calculated as follows: TCI = CPCH X 100 / CH.Results: Comparison of TCI value between male and female showed no significant difference between thegender. Among the four mandibular molars (lower left and right1stand 2nd molars) 46 and 47 TCI correlateswell with age. TCI of 46 has significant prediction of age in female with an R value of 0.426. Inter observermeasurements showed a moderate to good agreement of the measures.Conclusions: TCI method of mandibular teeth was found to be a reliable method for age estimation and notgender determination. CBCT can be used in age determination for forensic purposes as it is non- invasiveand also makes it possible to reconstruct the images in different planes showing the anatomical and imagedstructures at different planes.

Abstract

The consumption of drugs of abuse among females in the Health Services is a frequent problem, but oftenit is not diagnosed. Aims: We have analyzed the variations in the clinical profile of female patients came toobstetric emergency department in a period of sex months and made screening for various drugs to assessthe percentage of addicted females in this period of life. Secondly, we have assessed also the accuracy of thepresumptive method of detection compared to the confirmatory method. Method: Urine samples were takenfrom pregnant females came to obstetric emergency department, Beni Suef University hospital and wasscreened to detect the drugs of abuse that taken by these females by immunoassay and GC- mass and clinicalassessment of the babies were done. Results: from 300 females there were 20 cases Tramadol positiveby immunoassay but all of them were false positive when GC-mass was used. There was a questionedcross reactivity between Ranitidine and tramadol by Immunoassay needing for more researches. 62.3% ofthe female were no educated 42% of the female’s husbands were SHISHA smokers. Intra uterine growthretardation was the most common fetal complicationConclusions: scientific survey which done to detect drug abuse among group of people should never dependon immunoassay methods. The belief that women are more biologically complicated than men and thatthey were too busy caring for their children to participate in studies should be changed. Women should beincluded in clinical researches.

Abstract

Background: This review represents a critical and constructive analysis of literature in the content ofBisphenol A in amniotic fluid of pregnant women and its adverse health outcomes. The review is generatedthrough summary, classification, analysis and comparison of already existing material and researches onfield.Methods : Databases as Scopus, PubMed, Medline, Web of Science, Global Health, were used to extractdata for the review. Search terms like “Bisphenol A”, “pregnancy”, “amniotic fluid”, “endocrine disruptors”were used. Out of 200 research articles screened, 70 most relevant studies are included in this review.Conclusions: This review highlights the correlation between Bisphenol A and its endocrine disruptingpotential, impacting especially fragile categories as pregnant women and their fetuses through itstoxicokinetic features and its metabolites. Thus, BPA distorts important physiological processes necessaryfor fetal development and disease progression later in life.We can conclude that human exposure to BPA, as one of the leading environmental contaminants, representsa major global issue and its adverse health outcomes can be debilitating for human health. Further researchon field considering BPA distribution, varying exposure rates, racial disparities, inter-species differences andEDCs cumulative effects, should be conducted. Finding safer alternatives for replacing BPA in market mustremain a priority.
