An Authentication Based Source Address Spoofing Prevention Method Deployed in IPv6 Edge Network

Covid outbreak has been getting worse and spread affected all over the world. Pregnant patients are also vulnerable to respiratory diseases. We aimed to evaluate the awareness, emotional status, and behavior of pregnant during the COVID outbreak. This study's main benefit is to analyze the knowledge and understanding of pregnant women about the pandemic and draw attention to the prevention issues that need improvement. This research is a prospective observational study that 199 patients subjected to a questionnaire including 29 questions about patient characteristics, pregnancy information, knowledge about COVID19-infection, behavioral and emotional changes. 130 (65.3) of the patients stated an above-average knowledge level. Television was the most frequent information source (75.4%, n:150) and was the only information source for 90 (45.1%) of the patients. Sixty-nine patients used more than one information source. More than one prevention method uses by 149 (75%) of the patients. Washing hands (n:183, 92.0%) and cleaning the house (n:122, 61.3%) were the most preferred methods. Only 55 (27.6%) of the patients used a mask for prevention. 88(44.2%) of the patients stated that they preferred a shorter hospital stay, and 75 (37.7%) of the patients indicated that they postponed or avoided the pregnancy follow-up visits due to the COVID-19 issue. Pregnant women seem to be aware and stressed of COVID-19, but knowledge of what to do seems insufficient. Patients informed of risks of COVID infection, unplanned hospital admission, and chances of avoiding necessary visits and home birth demands.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of exposure to hepatitis A by means of serologic markers in chronic hepatitis B patients, with the secondary aim of finding the best prevention method for hepatitis A infection in susceptible groups of our setting. Methods: During the period between 2016 and 2017, we recruited 403 hepatitis B patients aged more than 14 years and regularly attending the infectious diseases clinic at a referral university hospital, Tehran, Iran. A blood sample was collected from all the patients and tested for hepatitis A IgG. The data was analyzed by SPSS v.19. Results: Although none of the patients had previously received hepatitis A vaccine, the results for serologic level of hepatitis A IgG, demonstrated positive results in 379 (94%) cases. The mean age of patients with negative and positive IgG was 29.17 and 42.46 years, respectively; the difference was statistically significant (P≤0.001). The majority of seronegative patients were young adults aged < 25 years and 25 to 35 years (P <0.001). Conclusion: Seroprevalence of hepatitis A in chronic HBV patients in Iran is high. As HBV infected patients younger than 35 years could be seronagative for HAV infection, evaluation of these patients for HAV infection and vaccination of seronegative patients would be a reasonable approach.

Exposure Prophylaxis

Abstract Background Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a highly effective daily oral antiretroviral medication that was approved by the FDA in 2012 and has been shown to reduce the risk of HIV by 95% in real-world studies. Despite this, many healthcare providers are not offering PrEP to their patients who are at risk for HIV. Methods We performed a cross-sectional study among Drexel Internal Medicine, Family Medicine, and Obstetrics and Gynecology residents. The survey included questions about experience, knowledge, attitudes toward and barriers to using PrEP. The survey was adapted from previous studies regarding medical providers’ attitudes and knowledge about PrEP (Petroll, 2016; Seifman, 2016; Blumenthal, 2105). A Likert 5-point scale was used for attitude and barriers questions. Results Among 143 participants, 80% specialized in Internal Medicine. 43% of participants were in their first year of training and the mean age (+ SD) was 28.8 + 2. 76% reported never initiating a conversation about PrEP with a patient and only 18% reported ever prescribing PrEP to their patients. 92% reported being very or extremely willing to prescribe PrEP to a male with a current male partner known to be HIV positive. Only 43% of residents reported being moderately likely to prescribe PrEP to a patient coming in for a STI exposure. 68% of residents reported their knowledge about PrEP was a major barrier to prescribing PrEP. Conclusion We found that most residents have minimal experience with prescribing PrEP, and knowledge was identified as the largest barrier. Additional education and a better understanding of PrEP indications is necessary to ensure eligible PrEP patients have access to this highly effective HIV prevention method.
