Background: Te purpose of the study was to determine the quality of life in patients with bowel endometriosis before and afer laparoscopic bowel resection.Material and methods: In the retrospective study we included 91 patients who underwent laparoscopic resection of the bowel affected by endometriosis at the Unit for Reproduction and the Unit for Gynecology, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology Ljubljana, in the period from 2002 to 2011. Te study was retrospective. Te patients were sent a questionnaire regarding the symptoms before surgery and the effect of surgery on bowel symptoms, painful menstruation, painful sexual intercourse, chronic pelvic pain and quality of life before and afer surgery; 76 (83.5 %) patients replied to the questionnaire.Results: Before surgery, 72 (94.7 %) patients reported painful menstruation. Improvement or complete relief afer surgery was registered in 57 (79.1 %). Out of 60 (78.9 %) patients who had painful sexual intercourse before surgery, 49 (81.7 %) reported improvement or complete relief afer surgery. Bowel symptoms, present in 52 (68.4 %) patients before surgery, improved or completely disappeared in 48 (92.4 %) afer surgery. Chronic pelvic pain, present in 53 (69.7 %) before surgery, decreased or did not exist any more in 45 patients (86.5 %). Te quality of life before surgery was very poor in 32 patients (42.1 %), and poor in 21 patients (27.8 %). Afer the operation, the quality of life was reported as improved in 22 (28.9 %) and signifcantly improved in 42 (55.3 %).Conclusions: Laparoscopic bowel resection, indicated in extensive symptomatic endometriosis, signifcantly improves the patients’ quality of life.

The Impact

Zakat is one of the five pillars of Islam which has a function of faith, social and economic functions. Muslims who can pay zakat are required to give at least 2.5 per cent of their wealth. The problem of poverty prevalent in disadvantaged regions because of the difficulty of access to information and communication led to a gap that is so high in wealth and resources. The instrument of zakat provides a paradigm in the achievement of equitable wealth distribution and healthy circulation. Zakat potentially offers a better life and improves the quality of human being. There is a human quality improvement not only in economic terms but also in spiritual terms such as improving religiousity. This study aims to examine the role of zakat to alleviate humanitarian issues in disadvantaged regions such as Sijunjung, one of zakat beneficiaries and impoverished areas in Indonesia. The researcher attempted a Cibest method to capture the impact of zakat beneficiaries before and after becoming a member of Zakat Community Development (ZCD) Program in material and spiritual value. The overall analysis shows that zakat has a positive impact on disadvantaged regions development and enhance the quality of life of the community. There is an improvement in the average of mustahik household incomes after becoming a member of ZCD Program. Cibest model demonstrates that material, spiritual, and absolute poverty index decreased by 10, 5, and 6 per cent. Meanwhile, the welfare index is increased by 21 per cent. These findings have significant implications for developing the quality of life in disadvantaged regions in Sijunjung. Therefore, zakat is one of the instruments to change the status of disadvantaged areas to be equivalent to other areas.

Histamine Metabolism

Цель исследования - изучение особенностей обмена гистамина при хронической тазовой боли у пациенток с наружным генитальным эндометриозом. Методика. В сыворотке крови 100 пациенток методом высокоточного (в нг/мл) иммуноферментного твердофазного анализа определяли концентрацию гистамина. Использованы реактивы «Histamine ЕLISA», аппарат BAE-1000 Гистамин (Labor Diagnostika Nord - LDN, Германия). Оценка выраженности болевого синдрома осуществлялась по шкале ВАШ, оценка качества жизни - на основании опросника для оценки качества жизни при эндометриозе (EHR-30), оценка тревожности - опросника Спилбергера-Ханина. Результаты. Показано статистически значимое повышение уровня гистамина у пациенток с высокой интенсивностью болевого синдрома. Женщины с наружным генитальным эндометриозом, сопровождающимся интенсивным болевым синдромом в 100% случаев обнаруживали высокие уровни ситуативной и личностной тревожности, тогда как, лишь у 40% женщин (n = 16) контрольной группы выявлен умеренный уровень тревожности. Депрессивные расстройства выявлены у 58,3% женщин с хронической тазовой болью (n = 35), из них основную часть (n = 20) составили женщины с выраженной степенью болевого синдрома по ВАШ. Заключение. Психоэмоциональное состояние женщин с тазовой болью, ассоциированной с наружным генитальным эндометриозом, характеризуется высокими уровнями депрессивных и тревожных расстройств, значительным снижением уровня качества жизни. Выявлена прямая связь между интенсивностью болевого синдрома и уровнем гистамина в периферической крови пациенток с наружным генитальным эндометриозом. Objective. To study features of histamine metabolism in patients with chronic pelvic pain associated with external genital endometriosis. Methods. For quantitative assessment of histamine level in peripheral blood was taken from 100 patients which than was centrifuged. In blood serum histamine concentration was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method with reagents «Histamine ЕLISA» on the machine BAE-1000 Histamine (Labor Diagnostika Nord - LDN, Hermany). A pain syndrome was assessed by Visual Analog Scale (VAS), quality of life assessment - by Endometriosis Health Profile Questionnaire (EHR-30), level of anxiety was determined by Spielberger-Khanin questionnaire. The results. Showed statistically higher histamine level in patients with severe pain according to VAS. After assessment of results obtained from Spielberger-Khanin questionnaire 100% experimental group’s women with external genital endometriosis (n = 60) were noted to be have high level of state and trait anxiety, then 40% women of control group (n = 16) have moderate level of anxiety. The incidence of depression in women with chronic pelvic pain was 58.3% (n = 35) and the main part (n = 20) were women with severe stage of pelvic pain according to VAS. Conclusions. Psycho emotional condition of women with external genital endometriosis associated pelvic pain characterized by higher depression and anxiety levels, with significant decrease quality of life. Direct relationship also was found between pain syndrome intensity and histamine level in peripheral blood in patients with external genital endometriosis.
