Knowledge of and attitudes toward eating disorders among psychiatry residents
Journal ID : AMJ-26-03-2022-10180; Author : Sumayah AlJhani,
Abstract : Eating disorders (EDs) are associated with a significant risk of comorbid psychiatric conditions and medical complications along with high mortality rate and suicide risk. This study aimed to assess psychiatry residents’ knowledge and attitudes toward eating disorders. This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among psychiatric residents in Saudi Arabia. A self-administered questionnaire was distributed electronically to psychiatric residents through the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties database. The questionnaire collected demographic information (e.g., age, sex, and nationality), previous experience with eating disorders, and assessment of knowledge of and attitudes toward eating disorders. Fifty-two psychiatric residents (65.4% men, 34.6% women) were included in this study. Most participants (65.4%) belonged to the 20–30-year age group, and 46.2% of all participants were service residents. Knowledge of eating disorders was poor among 63.5% of residents and good among 36.5% of residents. There was a positive attitude toward eating disorders among 76.9% of residents, while 21.3% showed a negative attitude. The younger age group (age <35 years) showed significantly better knowledge, Saudi nationals, training residents, and those with ≤4 years in psychiatric practice; however, there was no difference in their attitudes. While psychiatric residents had an optimistic attitude toward eating disorders, they lacked knowledge of eating disorders. Among all participants, young Saudi trainee residents who were at an early stage of their career had better knowledge than those in the other groups.

Application of Spatial Analysis to Nutritional Epidemiology among Under - Five Children in Karnataka, India
Journal ID : AMJ-21-03-2022-10179; Author : Mackwin Kenwood Dmello, Sanjeev Badiger, Sudeep Kumar, Neevan Dsouza, Nanjesh Kumar, Jagannath Purushotam,
Abstract : Malnutrition has become a significant public health challenge strongly associated with the substantial increase in the risk of mortality and morbidity in children. This study will be conducted to determine the geographical variation in nutritional status of under-five children and identify the spatial clusters based on demographic and household characteristics in Karkala taluk of Karnataka state, India, and replicate the same in other areas. The aggregated nutrition status data of children under five years are collected from the Udupi district health office for three years, validated at the village level. The anthropometry, topography, and socio-demographic data is collected by visiting the household. The retrospective discrete Poisson probability model will identify the clusters of underweight, stunting and wasting. Spatial autocorrelation statistics like Local Indicators of Spatial Association (LISA) statistics of nutritional status will be analysed. The logistic regression model will be used to analyse the causes of clustering. The geo-coordinates of the households were summarised using a Cartesian coordinate system. The SaTScan statistic software (SaTScan v10.0.2) will be used to identify the spatial, Spatio-temporal clusters of underweight, stunting and wasting among under-five children. This software will detect the randomness of nutritional status of under-five children over space and space-time. The spatial data analysis and spatial autocorrelation will be carried out using GeoDa software. Spatial dependence of nutritional status will be analysed through the Global Moran's Index and Local Indicators of Spatial Association (LISA). The observed and expected cases inside the window are considered for spatial and space-time cluster significance in SaTScan software. The LISA statistics will indicate the local pockets of non-randomness or hot spots. The LISA statistic is also used to assess the contribution of location on the magnitude of global figures. The Spatiotemporal and autocorrelation results can be used for risk analysis of malnutrition among under-five children by the policymaker for decision making.

Journal ID : AMJ-21-03-2022-10177; Author : Hind Tahir Qadir, Thekra Atta Ibrahim, Mohammed Nsaif Abbas,
Abstract : This paper aims to evaluate the effect of the alcoholic extract of the Vitex agnus castus on the histological structure of the testes of adult White rabbits. In this study, 12 White male rabbits were used, which were divided into two groups, The first being the control group and its number was 4 rabbits, and the second group included 8 rabbits, and this group in turn was divided into two groups with 4 rabbits for each group. The two groups of rabbits were injected with the alcoholic extract of the Vitex agnus castus at a concentration of 100 and 200 mg of extract/kg of body weight. One concentration per group is injected for 30th days. At the 30th days, the treated animals was sacrificed and the testes were removed from them, and then their tissues sections were prepared. The results obtained from this study showed that all the animals of the two groups of experiments that were treated with the extract showed a change in the thickness of the walls of the seminiferous tubes in the testes and their appearance became undulating and irregular. Also it was observed that some germ cells were Shed and depleted and collected in the lumen of seminiferous tubes and the appearance of Phagocytic cells inside the cavity and congeston of blood vessels. This study concludes that Vitex agnus castus can reduced the number of sperms in the testes and resulting in damage to the testes which the regularly usage can lead to infertility.

Teratogenic effect of hydroxychloroquine on the histological structure of adult rabbit Kidneys Orectolagus cuniculus
Journal ID : AMJ-19-03-2022-10174; Author : Israa Abdulqader, Thekra Atta Ibrahime, Ghalib Idrees Atiya Ali,
Abstract : Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is an effective drug for the treatment of various autoimmune disorders. It has appropriate pharmacological properties that show its effectiveness in improving the control of parasitic infections such as malaria. It is rapidly absorbed into the plasma and excreted through the kidneys. This study was designed to investigate the effect of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) at two concentrations of 25 and 50 mg/kg/day on the histological structure of the kidney in an adult rabbit (Orectolagus cuniculus). The study was conducted on 18 rabbits, it was divided randomly and equally to three groups included a control group and a group that was treated with a concentration of 25 mg/kg/day of the drug, while the animals of the third group was injected with a dose of 50 mg/kg/day. The results of the histological study showed the occurrence of pathological histological changes to the kidneys in the group of animals treated with the drug of 25 and 50 mg/kg/day concentration, the most prominent of which was a clear congestion of blood in some blood vessels in the cortex area and between the epithelial cells lining the glomeruli. It also showed a clear cellular infiltration near the blood vessel. Degeneration of the lining of the epithelial cells of some renal tubules, especially the proximal convoluted tubules, and the separation of tubule cells from the detached basement membrane and their gathering in the lumen of the tubules in most tissue sections was observed. It was also found that the glomerulus was enlarged and that treatment with this drug led to a decrease in Bowman’s space, in addition to an increase in the thickness and density of the basement membrane of the urinary tubules. Glomerular cells suffered from accumulation, shrinking, enlargement capsular space, and cell death. It can conclude from the above results that the hydroxychloroquine drug has clear effects on the histological structure of the kidneys.

Psychotropic Medication Effects, Management, and Treatment of Sexual Dysfunction: a Systematic Review
Journal ID : AMJ-18-03-2022-10173; Author : Sumayah AlJhani, Deemah Alateeq,
Abstract : This study aimed to systematically assess the impact of psychotropic medication-induced sexual dysfunction on all sexes and to outline the safety of relevant medical interventions. Several databases were searched using key terms to derive pertinent data across randomly selected population groups. Viable literature was screened using eligibility criteria, selecting the most vital and reliable information. Conflicting information and heterogeneity across studies required a systematic narrative to represent the included data. A bias risk summary was calculated using the Cochrane Tool for Risk of Bias calculation. Our search yielded more than 2000 eligible studies. Further stratification was performed to eliminate non-pertinent data, and characteristics of selected studies were tabulated. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and typical antipsychotics were strongly associated with sexual dysfunction across various study populations. Switching from SSRIs to serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors and/or switching from prolactin-raising antipsychotic psychotropic medication was associated with improved sexual function. Pharmacological interventions were suggested by a majority of the included studies. Non-pharmacological interventions were associated with improved sexual function across all sexes. Several extracts, including maca root, saffron, and rosa damascene oil, were associated with improved sexual function.

Journal ID : AMJ-13-03-2022-10170; Author : Shwan Othman Amen, Banan Rasool, Hewa Mustafa Muhammad, Anas Abdullah Rasool, Aya Nasih Mohammad, Bareq Sabeeh Hashim, Dina Shehata, Salah Yousif Hassan, Attaullah Ahmadi, Don Eliseo Lucero-Prisno III,
Abstract : Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a major surgical operation where atheromatous blockages in a patient’s coronary arteries are bypassed with harvested venous or arterial conduits. Post-CABG mortality has been associated with multiple patient factors such as advanced age, preoperative renal dysfunction, diabetes, low preoperative Ejection Fraction (EF), stroke, carotid artery disease, dysrhythmias, concomitant valvular disease and multiple other comorbidities. To assess the mortality rate and discuss the possible risk factors associated with mortality following CABG. A cross sectional study was conducted in the Cardiac Center in Erbil, Kurdistan region of Iraq from June 2020 to March 2021. Data was collected from case files of 200 patients in the hospital records and follow up data was obtained after a 6-15-month period by interviewing the patients directly. Data were analysed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 23 (SPSS, IBM, Armonk, NY, USA). The mortality rate after CABG was 8.5% in the study duration, with the majority being in the 50-59 age group. Female gender, left ventricular dysfunction, hyperlipidemia, double vessel disease and triple vessel disease, valvular disease and concomitant valve surgery were identified as risk factors for mortality in the postoperative period. More efforts should be directed towards preventing and controlling cardiovascular risk factors to decrease the prevalence and impact of CAD in our community.

Epidural Varicose Vein Mimic Disc Prolapse and Causing a Severe Radicular pain: A Case series
Journal ID : AMJ-10-03-2022-10169; Author : Ammar Najim Abood,
Abstract : Venous varicose of the epidural is regarded as an infrequent cause of the root of the nerve, impingement, and theca sac compression that cause the radiculopathy of the lower limb. The essential purpose of the study is to focus on this problem during the process. It also aims to focus shed a light on using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) before the operation. This research also attempts to evaluate the outcome of the surgery. Symptoms of epidural varicose with radiculopathy are rare and the diagnosis is often inaccurate by preoperative clinical examination and radiology investigations. Thus, in many cases the diagnosis is made intra- operatively. The 12 cases were age between 34 and 51 years old were 7 females and 5 males who have consulted our outpatient clinic from 2014 to 2020 complaining from acute radicular pain in the lower back and down to lower limb. MRI was done for them and showed disc herniation. Intra operatively revealed an abnormal dilatation of epidural vein impingement on nerve root and spinal cord. We initiated a thermo coagulation of the epidural vein from proximal to distal ends at disc level and used gel foam patch to control bleeding that was removed all at the end of operation. Then, coagulation ablation was performed. The operation resulted in relief of symptoms and neurologic recovery occurred during follow up period. According to our cases and previously published case reports, the outcome is good with recovery of neurological signs and symptoms that can be obtained by coagulation ablation of epidural varicose vein.
