The role of vitamin d in the management of cognitive impairment in patients with autoimmune thyroiditis and hypothyroidism
Journal ID : AMJ-25-08-2022-10477; Author : Iryna Kamyshna, Larysa Pavlovych, Volodymyr Pankiv, Vitaliy Maslyanko, Ivan Pankiv, Aleksandr Kamyshnyi,
Abstract : Clinical studies show a strong connection between vitamin D levels in serum with cognitive impairment in patients with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. It is important to study the effect of cholecalciferol on the cognitive function in patients with autoimmune thyroiditis and hypothyroidism in the Western Ukrainian population. The study included 56 patients with hypothyroidism (H) caused by autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT). These patients were distributed into two groups. Patients in the Group 1 (n = 28) received cholecalciferol at a dose of 4000 IU/day (28,000 IU/week) and L-thyroxine (88.39 ± 12.70 μg / day). Patients in the Group 2 (n = 28) were prescribed only L-thyroxine (87.50 ± 12.73 μg / day). Examinations were performed at the beginning and end of the 12-week treatment. We detect a decline in cognitive function using the Mini-Mental State Examination. After the course of treatment, patients showed improvement in cognitive function. In Group 1 patients who received cholecalciferol and L-thyroxine after treatment, the percentage of patients with moderate (pre-dementia) cognitive impairment decreased from 50% to 21.4%. At the same time, no statistically significant changes were found in the group of patients taking L-thyroxine alone. Normalization of cognitive functions according to the MMCE test increased from 28.6% to 78.6% in the first group, and from 21.4% to 50% in patients of Group 2. Based on our results, patients with autoimmune thyroiditis and hypothyroidism should be given vitamin D supplements to improve cognitive function.

Relationship between Resilience and Self-efficacy with Parenting Stress in Disability Children Parents During Covid-19 Pandemic
Journal ID : AMJ-25-08-2022-10476; Author : Florisma Arista Riti Tegu, Uki Noviana, Sri Hartini,
Abstract : Parenting stress has increased during the Covid-19 pandemic. Parents of children with intellectual disabilities experience high parenting stress during the pandemic. Resilience and self-efficacy can be factors that influence parental stress, but there is still limited research looking at the relationship between resilience and self-efficacy with parenting stress of parents with children who have disabilities during the pandemic. The aimed of this study was to determine the relationship between resilience and self-efficacy with the stress of parents who have children with disabilities during the Covid-19 pandemic. This study used a cross-sectional design. This study used consecutive sampling of 156 respondents from parents who have children with intellectual disabilities aged 5-19 years of 4 Special Schools in Yogyakarta. The instruments used in this study included the Parental stress scale (PSS), Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale-25 (CD-RISC-25), the modified Self-efficacy for Parenting Tasks Index (SEPTI), and General Health Questionnaire-12 (GHQ-12) for screening. Bivariate analysis using Spearman test and Independent T-test. Linear regression analysis was used to determine the most dominant factors affecting parenting stress in parents of children with intellectual disabilities. Most parents (51.3%) experienced high parenting stress with low resilience (51.9%) and self-efficacy (55.8%). There is a significant relationship (p < 0.05) between resilience and self-efficacy with parenting stress which is negatively correlated with resilience values (r -0.21) and self-efficacy (-0.242). Resilience is the most dominant factor influencing parenting stress (β: -0.177). Resilience and self-efficacy are factors that influence the parenting stress of children with intellectual disabilities aged 5-19 years during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Family Behavior Deviations in the First Phase of Life and Stunting Incidences in Indonesia
Journal ID : AMJ-25-08-2022-10475; Author : Moh. Husni Thamrin, Andi Agustang, Arlin Adam, Syamsu A. Kamaruddin, Andi Alim,
Abstract : The prevalence of child stunting in Indonesia is 30.8%, exceeding the figure required by WHO as much as 14% which has an impact on the country's gross domestic income. The main cause based on the behavioritic paradigm is the deviation of family behavior in the first 1000 Days of Life phase. The research method uses a mix-method, namely a qualitative method to map the factors that cause behavioural deviations and a quantitative method to examine the relationship between variables causing deviations. The sample is mothers who have to stunt children as many as 303 people. Data were collected by interview, FGD, and observation. Data analysis using chi-square test. Qualitative results show the taxonomy of causes of behavioural deviations including silence in communication between health workers, practical attitudes of families, orientation to modern lifestyles, hereditary experiences, and cultural perceptions. The quantitative results show that the mute variable of health workers has the most significant influence on the occurrence of behavioural deviations with a significance level of 0.028. The ability of health workers to assist families determines the occurrence of behavioural deviations that result in stunting in children. It is recommended to integrate the content of community empowerment into the health education.

A STUDY ON PLACENTAL LOCALISATION IN RELATION TO DOPPLER STUDY AND PERINATAL OUTCOME AT TERTIARY CARE CENTRE
Journal ID : AMJ-25-08-2022-10473; Author : Dr.Priyadarshini,
Abstract : Preeclampsia remains one of the leading causes of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. The present study was conducted to know the relationship between placental location after 28 weeks and occurrence of preeclampsia and FGR., and to compare the outcome of pregnancy with non-lateral (central) and laterally implanted placenta. Place of study: Niloufer hospital, Osmania medical college, Hyderabad. Study period: 18 months. Study design: Longitudinal Observational hospital-based. Procedure of data collection: In this study 200 singleton pregnant women who have come to NILOUFER Hospital, and who were willing to participate in the study were taken. In this study the location of placenta and placental doppler was determined from 28weeks of gestational age. The placenta was classified as non-lateral when it was equally distributed between right and left irrespective of being anterior, posterior, and fundal in position. When 75% or more mass of placenta waste wards one side it was described as lateral. Study analysis: The results of the study will be compiled, tabulated and analyzed by MICROSOFT EXCEL. All 200 patients were followed till delivery for occurrence of preeclampsia as per guidelines. All data was analyzed and statistical significance was determined by Chi-square test and value of p<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Out of 200 patients, 110 members had lateral placenta and 90members had central placenta. Out of 110 members with lateral placenta, 29 patients had preeclampsia and remaining 81, are normal. Out of 90 patients with central placenta, 11 patients developed preeclampsia and remaining 79 are normal. Incidence of preeclampsia in lateral placenta (110) in this study was 26.36%. Incidence of preeclampsia in central group (90) in my study is 12.22%. In this study after applying the Chi Square test, the value is 6.118 and the P value is <0.05 which is statistically significant. Incidences of preeclampsia, IUGR and birth asphyxia were found to be higher in laterally localized placenta cases when compared with those in central localized placenta. This association should prompt the clinician for preeclampsia and IUGR in pregnant women with laterally localized placentas.

Journal ID : AMJ-24-08-2022-10471; Author : Dr Ravish kumar M, Dr Nagarkar Rajhans, Dr Praveen kumar Doddamani, Dr Dinesh valse, Dr Parandekar Prashant, Dr Prathiba lokesh,
Abstract : Rhino-orbital Mucormycosis is an opportunistic fungal infection affecting mainly diabetic and other immunocompromised patients. Covid-19 infection has augmented the risk of mucormycosis cases due to use of steroids or due to immunosuppressed condition because of infection itself. In the present study four cases with rhino-orbital mucormycosis have been presented. They were etiologically diagnosed as Mucorales by KOH mount and fungal culture. Though diabetes and other immunosuppressed condition are at risk of acquiring Mucormycosis, In the present study 2 cases were not diabetic and didn’t had any immunosuppressive condition nor they were treated with steroids for covid-19 treatment. Hence we suggest that mucormycosis could be suspected in immunocompetent individuals also.

Journal ID : AMJ-24-08-2022-10470; Author : Rusul Mahdi Abid, Rusul Mahdi Abid, Rusul Mahdi Abid,
Abstract : Atrial fibrillation is the commonest type of arrhythmias with significant mortality and morbidities. There is a correlation between AF and renal impairment and this correlation is complex and may be a manifestation of cardiorenal syndrome, a bidirectional complication of these diseases or its treatment or both coexist in same disease. To evaluate frequency of renal indices abnormality among patients with atrial fibrillation. By using cross sectional descriptive study, randomly selected 52 atrial fibrillation patients admitted to Coronary care unit in Al-Nasiriya city underwent a complete evaluation for renal indices including blood urea, serum creatinine, urinalysis, serum electrolytes, Albumin creatinine ratio and ultrasound for renal system. Also performed questionnaire were obtained from all patients. Patients labeled as chronic kidney disease or underwent to renal replacement therapy were excluded. Mean age of patient’s 59.6±13.1 years and for Age at diagnosis 56.9±14.9. All patients have one or more abnormal renal indices. Most abnormalities appear in urinalysis (100% of patients) followed by abnormal Albumin creatinine ratio (48% of patients), Blood urea in 26.92%, Serum creatinine in 9.6% and ultrasound in 7.69%. 75% had chronic diseases plus AF. Significant correlation between male gender and highly abnormal blood urea (P.value=0.05), serum creatinine (P.value=0.014) and Albumin creatinine ratio (P.value=0.013). Also between direct cardioversion shock and blood urea (P.value=0.018), serum creatinine (P.value=0.006) and Albumin creatinine ratio (P.value=0.047). Blood urea correlated with abnormal echo finding (P.value=0.02) and number of medications that used for atrial fibrillation management (P.value=0.031). Some renal indices is abnormal in Atrial fibrillation patients especially urinalysis, blood urea, serum creatinine and Albumin creatinine ratio. In addition, this abnormality related to gender, using of direct cardioversion shock, echo abnormalities and number of medications for atrial fibrillation.

Functional Capacity Changes After Cardiac Rehabilitation Program as A Quality of Life Predictor in Left Ventricular Dysfunction Patients Who Underwent Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Journal ID : AMJ-24-08-2022-10469; Author : Cut Aryfa Andra, Hery Diansyah Putra, Abdul Halim Raynaldo, Yuke Sarastri, Rusdiana Rusdiana,
Abstract : For Patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) accompanied by decreased left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) was the preferred management and superior to pharmacological therapy alone. Health assessment related to the quality of life in patients with CAD and post-CABG is important and intended for evaluating the acquisition of the therapeutic target. Based on the guidelines, treatments of CAD should be accompanied by lifestyle modification and cardiac rehabilitation. The aim of the study was to assess functional capacity changes (∆METs) after phase II cardiac rehabilitation as a predictor of quality of life 3 months after CABG. A cohort study methods on patients with LV systolic dysfunction who underwent CABG between January 2019 and January 2021. Patients were submitted to phase II cardiac rehabilitation, where ∆METs showed changes in functional capacity before and after the program. The abnormality of ∆METs as a predictor was determined by the cut-off point using ROC and AUC curve in the previous study which was 3.25 METs.5 Observe-component was patients’ quality of life 3 months after CABG using Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ). The study showed there was a significant relation between ∆METs and KCCQ scores with moderate strength (p<0.01; r = 0.592), and showed the lower ∆METs group had a 5.3 times greater risk of poor quality of life than the higher ∆METs group 3 months after CABG (p<0.01; OR = 5.3). The conclusion of the study showed that Functional capacity changes after phase II cardiac rehabilitation could predict the quality of life after CABG in patients with LV systolic dysfunction by using KCCQ.

Journal ID : AMJ-23-08-2022-10468; Author : 1Ali Nayyef Umayra, Jabbar S. Hassan, Rand R. Hafidh, Thanaa R. Abdulrahman,
Abstract : Brucellosis is a frequent infectious zoonosis over the world, intimidating both veterinary and human public health. The misuse and overuse of antibiotics in Iraq in the veterinary field is associated with the high rate of antibiotic resistance that observed in some zoonotic bacteria directing to cause serious infections in human. The point of this study; is to determine the occurrence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) -producing Brucella abortus in the blood of cattle. One hundred blood samples were obtained from cattle in a number of slaughterhouses in different areas of Baghdad. Equal to 10 ml of blood samples were collected from the tail vein of the animals. Blood was divided into two parts; the first part (7ml) in Trypticase soy broth, incubated at 37 °C with 5–10% CO2 for 2-3 days. Later, Bacterial DNA was extracted and a specific set of primers were used for the detection of β-lactamases genes in Brucella abortus isolated using multiplex-PCR technique. of 100 blood samples used in this study 26 isolates (26%) were confirmed to be Brucella abortus species by VITEK-2 System. The ESBLs genes; blaTEM gene was detected in 9 of 26 (34.6%) isolates, followed by blaCTX-M gene in 7(26.9%) isolates, blaAMPC gene in 6 (23.0%) isolates, and blaSHV gene in 4 (15.3%) isolates. This study indicated the high rate of ESBLs- producer Brucella abortus among cattle. Thus, indicating the potential of animals as a source of the ESBLs-producer bacteria that transmitted to human via the food chain or other recreational activities.
