Abstract

Background & Objectives: Variations in the levels of female sex hormones,i.e., estrogen and progesterone,are responsible for various physiological changes,including those in the oral tissues. The aim of this researchis to determine the effects of changes in sex hormone levels in women with irregular periodsand sufferingfrom periodontal diseases in comparison to healthy women.Methods: This study included70 subjects who visited the Clinic at the Department of Periodontology,College of Dentistry,University of Anbar, during the period of July 2019to September 2019. The gingivalcrevicular fluid(GCF) was collected from the patient group (35 females with irregular periodsand periodontaldisease) and the control group(25 healthy females).Results: Compared to control, asignificantlyhighermean concentration of GCFestradiolwas found in thepatient group. Additionally, the patient group also exhibited a significantly lower mean concentration ofGCFprogesterone compared to the control group.Interpretation & Conclusion: Changes in sex hormonesaresignificantlycorrelated with periodontal tissuechangesand GCF examination can be used as a non-invasive method to detect these hormonal changes.Thisstudy demonstrated that GCF could prove to be a good, non-invasive method to validate the levels of sexhormones in females with periodontal diseases.

Abstract

The analysis of early and late feedback data for athletes on a moving object allows us to interpret the balancedata, the degree of equilibrium of excitement and inhibition in athletes in the experimental. When comparingthe number of leading and delayed reactions in players tested in the control group after an educationalexperience, it was found that in the majority (43.8%) the number of advances (early reactions) exceededthe number of delays. This fact indicates an imbalance in neurological processes with the predominanceof excitation force. At the same time, the number of athletes in this group, whose response was delayed,reached 37.5%, suggesting dysfunction of neurological processes, with the predominance of inhibition.Only 18.7% of athletes are diagnosed with equilibrium in neurological processes. The indices of the numberof delays and advances are approximately equal and differ slightly from each other (R> 0.05).

Abstract

The concept of patient safety has been developed due to the increased incidence of medical error in Indonesia.Although incidents related to patient safety occurs in health servicessuch as the Independent Practice ofMidwifery or BidanPraktikMandiri(BPM), it has not received enough attention from the stakeholders. Thisresearch discusses the implementationof Patient Safety Model atthe Independent Practice of MidwiferyinBogor District, West Java Province. The research was conducted with mixed method approach, using threewayphase. The first phase is the construction on patient safety goals in BPM by doing focus group discussionon 3 groups and 2 in-depth interviews with 2 informants. The second phase is the model development inthe form of validation based on findings in the first phase. Additionally, phase 2 is done by using crosssectionaldesign of 90 midwives and SEM analysis using PLS. The third phase is conducting a quantitativeevaluation model with pre and post design at 30 BPM which have had training on Patient Safety Model. Thefindings show allvariables (patient safety goals, knowledge, attitudes, motivations, and behaviors related tothe patient safety) are valid in shaping Patient Safety Model. The results on Model application evaluation(phase 3) indicate that the model effective in increasing knowledge (p 0.000), attitude (p 0.000), motivation(p 0.000) and behavior (p 0.001) on patient safety in BPM.

Abstract

Renal failure a case characterized by the impairment of the kidney to filter waste products from the body.The study aims to evaluate the potential effect of Acacia gum in the prevention of induced Acute renalfailure in the rabbit model. Eighteen healthy male domestic rabbits (Lepus cuniculus) were divided intothree groups. Group 1: normal rabbits as control, Group 2: animals were injected (70mg/kg. B.W) ofintramuscular gentamicin daily for 14 days for induction of acute renal failure, Group 3: animals weretreated with intramuscular injection (70mg/kg B.W) gentamicin daily and offered 15% Acacia gum withdrinking water for 14 days. At the end of the experiment Serum urea, uric acid, creatinine, blood ureanitrogen, calcium, sodium, and malondialdehyde were measured in addition to Urine analysis. The resultsshowed that the treatment of Acacia gum improved significantly serum uric acid, creatinine, urea, bloodurea nitrogen, electrolyte, and proteinuria. Also reduced malonaldehyde, urine Specific gravity, and pHlevels. Our findings conclude that GA can protect the kidney by enhancing antioxidant efficiency, and maybe useful in improving acute renal failure.

Abstract

Rh incompatibility is a not common pediatric problem, that cause morbidity and mortality in children, and itis an important cause of hemolysis, anemia and jaundice in newborn. To study Rhesus hemolytic disease, itsseverity, its complications; to evaluate if ABO incompatibility is protective or not, so to find out the efficacyof anti-D globulin ; to evaluate the efficacy of phototherapy and exchange transfusion as a treatment.This study was done on neonates with jaundice, seventy five patients (1-10 days old) who had Rhincompatibility were studied during period from the first of January 2008 to the 30th of June 2008.History was taken about age, gender and gestational age of the patients, determination of gestational ageand hepatosplenomegally as a cause of extramedullary hematopoiesis. Investigations done for patientswere hemoglobin, total serum bilirubin, reticulocyte count, blood group and Rh, and direct coombs test.From 75 patients studied, 55 patients (73%) required treatment for jaundice;25 of them (46%) required onlyphototherapy due to mild degree of hemolysis, and 30 of them (54%) required exchange transfusion withphototherapy due to severe degree of hemolytic. The remaining 20 patients (27%) required observationalone.Family history of previous hemolysis was positive in 44 patients and it was a risk factor for havinghemolysis in present pregnancy. Early evaluation of patients for jaundice was useful in early recovery. ABOincompatibility in association with Rh incompatibility was not necessarily protective against hemolysis. Theadministration of anti-D globulin to the mother within first 72 hours after delivery was protective againstsensitization.Early and proper management of of Rh incompatibility may reduce need for exchange transfusion. ABOincompatibility was not necessarily protective against hemolysis. Anti-D globulin administered to motherswithin 3 days after delivery was protective against sensitization, History of hemolytic in previous siblings isconsidered as a risk factor for present hemolytic in neonates with Rh incompatibility.

Abstract

The crime scene is an important place for crime investigation. It often becomes victim of police officers inparticular and general public at large as they are not fully aware of the importance of scientific clue materialswhich will have important impact on the whole process of investigation for successful detection of factsrelating to the offence. Sometimes, it may also so happen that the interested persons knowingly disturbthe crime scene to mislead the investigators. Considering and the evolution of the scientific aspects offorensic science, more attention must be awarded at crime scene to recovering and maintaining the integrityof evidence which will be eventually examined by forensic scientists in the laboratory. As every crimescene is always unique in nature, accordingly a different approach is required for one crime to another. Theopportunity to examine the scene is available only once. If the same is not fully exploited the wealth ofinformation is lost forever. This article focuses on the crime scene management and role of forensic scienceand the laws relating to expert opinion.
