The aim of the article is to assess the consumers’ buying behaviour and decision-making process when purchasing bread and to propose the ways of how to improve the position of bread in the market. 1601 properly filled questionnaires were used for the analysis. Results are presented under the form of frequencies of answers and statistical tests. The analysis included evaluation of statistical hypotheses about the independence (significance level α = 0.01) using the chi-square goodness of fit test and Pearson coefficient of contingency. The significance level was then compared with the value p-value, for p-value > α, the null hypothesis was not rejected. The most important factors of choosing bread are freshness, appearance habit and price. The importance of the price grows with the increasing age of respondents and decreases with the increasing income of questioned consumers. The importance of the brand, as well as the reference or recommendation from the family and friends slightly strengthens with the increasing income of the consumers. Most of the respondents make no difference between both (yeast and rye leaven) technologies of baking bread when making their buying decision. We cannot say, however, the preference to the rye leaven bread grows with the increasing age of respondents to the detriment of the yeast bread or vice versa.

ABSTRAKSkizofrenia merupakan gangguan atau kumpulan gangguan mental yang mempengaruhi pemikiran, persepsi, dan perilaku sosial dan penyebabnya sebagian besar masih belum diketahui. Pengobatan farmakologis skizofrenia menggunakan obat-obat golongan antipsikotik terutama dalam jangka waktu lima tahun setelah episode akut pertama muncul. Penggunaan antipsikotik berpotensi menimbulkan kejadian hospitalisasi yang dapat menurunkan kualitas hidup pasien terkait penurunan fungsi sosial pasien skizofrenia. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis potensi jenis kelamin dan jenis pengobatan antipsikotik sebagai faktor prediktor hospitalisasi pasien skizofrenia. Analisis cross sectional jenis kelamin dan penggunaan antipsikotik dilakukan pada rekam medis pasien rawat inap di Rumah Sakit Jiwa Menur Surabaya Bulan Oktober 2017 yang didiagnosis skizofrenia (ICD-10 F20). Faktor prediktor hospitalisasi pasien  dianalisis menggunakan uji Chi-square for goodness of fit yang membandingkan perbedaan jumlah frekuensi antar kategori pada masing-masing faktor prediktor. Faktor jenis terapi antipsikotik digolongkan menjadi tipikal, atipikal, dan kombinasi. Hasil menunjukan terdapat perbedaan jumlah pasien pada tiga jenis terapi yang berbeda (p-value 0,000) dimana sebagian besar pasien yang dirawat dirumah sakit menerima antipsikotik tipikal (47,41%). Perbandingan jenis kelamin tidak menunjukkan perbedaan yang signifikan pada pasien yang dirawat. Dapat disimpulkan jenis antipsikotik tipikal kemungkinan dapat mempengaruhi kejadian hospitalisasi pada pasien skizofrenia. Kata kunci: Skizofrenia, antipsikotik tipikal, antipsikotik atipikal, hospitalisasi.ABSTRACTSchizophrenia is a mental disorder that affect thought, perception, and social behaviours. Most of causes of schizophrenia are unknown. Pharmacological treatments of schizophrenia use antipsychotics especially during  five years after first acute episode observed. The use of antipsychotics potentially lead to hospitalization that can affect to patients’ quality of life. This study was aimed to analyze the potential of gender and types of antipsychotic treatments as predictor factors in hospitalization of schizophrenia patients. Cross sectional analysis in gender and types of antipsycotics was conducted to medical records of inpatients at Rumah Sakit Jiwa Menur Surabaya diagnozed with Schizophrenia (ICD-10 Code F20) in October 2017. Chi-square for goodness of fit test was used to determine the difference amount of patients among different gender and different types of antipsychotics used as predictor factors. Types of antipsychotics used was classified into three categories which were patients who received typical antipsychotic, atypical antipsycotic and combination. The results showed that there was a significant difference in amount of hospitalized patients who received typical antipsychotic, atypical antipsycotic and combination (p-value 0,000) which most of hospitalized patients received atypical antipsychotics (47,41%).On the other hand, the proportion of gender among hospitalized patients was found have no significant difference. In conclusion, types of antipsychotics used might related to the hospitalization of schizophrenia patients.Keywords: Schizophrenia, Typical antipsychotic, Atypical antipsychotic, Hospitalization.

Abstract Background: Hyperglycemic Emergency (HE) denotes critical cases of decompensated diabetes mellitus (DM). Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS) are the extreme cases of HE. This study aims to assess the treatment outcome of HE and predictors in Ethiopia.Method: Four-year medical records of DM patients admitted for HE at Hiwot Fana Specialized University Hospital (HFSUH) were reviewed retrospectively. Data were entered into and cleaned by Epi-InfoTM7 software. The statistical analysis was executed using the statistical package for social sciences software (SPSS) version 24. Chi-square test and student’s t-test were done to compare categorical and continuous variables. Logistic regression with the level of α set at 0.05 and AOR of 95% CI was done to determine the predictors. Statistical significance was established at AOR ≠1 within a 95% CI and P-value < 0.05. The model was verified using the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test (P = 0.392).Results: This study included 321 eligible patients. The median duration of hospital stay was 7 days. The pooled HE mortality was 16.5%; 21.4% of HHS and 11.1% of DKA died. Infection (AOR = 3.74, 95% CI: 1.85-7.57, P <0.001), comorbidity (AOR = 2.95, 95% CI: 1.34-6.48, P = 0.007), and lower admission Glasgow Coma Scale score ≤ 8 (AOR = 2.58, 95% CI: 1.17-5.71, P = 0.019) were the independent predictors of HE mortality.Conclusion: Mortality and duration of hospital stay stand high among DM patients admitted with HE. Infection, comorbidity, and lower admission GCS ≤ 8 are the independent predictors of HE mortality.

Background: Visual Midline Shift Syndrome (VMSS) is a common finding in patients who have suffered traumatic brain injury (TBI) and stroke. Proper identification of VMSS will allow for best patient management since VMSS has previously been shown to be treatable with Yoked Prism lenses. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of VMSS in a group of patients with TBI compared to patients with no report of TBI. Methods: A single-center retrospective study of 60 patients (30 TBI and 30 non-TBI) was conducted by chart review to determine the prevalence and direction of VMSS in each group. The presence of VMSS was determined by Visual Midline Shift Testing where the patient was instructed to follow a moving Wolff Wand fixation target performed at 3 gazes horizontally from both directions to detect any right or left VMSS and then the procedure was repeated vertically to detect any anterior or posterior VMSS. Results: A much higher prevalence of VMSS was found in the TBI group (93%) compared to the non-TBI group (13%). This difference was found to be statistically significant by Chi-Square analysis (p-value of <0.0011). The directions of VMSS in the TBI group, in order of prevalence were right (82%), anterior (64%), posterior (11%), and left (7%). Chi-Square Goodness-of-Fit Test showed the prevalence of right VMSS is statistically different than left VMSS or no right/left VMSS. (p-value < 0.001) and anterior VMSS is statistically different than posterior VMSS or no anterior/posterior VMSS (p-value = 0.002). Conclusion: The prevalence of VMSS is extremely high in patients with TBI. Our study also found a much higher prevalence of right or anterior VMSS. Our data supported VMSS testing to be performed on all patients with a history of TBI.

Abstract Background Acute cholecystitis accounts for 20% of Emergency General Surgical admissions. The concept of seasonal variation is still a developing concept in surgical literature. Whether acute cholecystitis also follows a seasonal trend remains to be established. Aim Given the struggle healthcare system has been facing towards resource and staff allocation to deliver best possible patient care, we thought this may be a step forward to predict North Wales demand of resources seasonally and make appropriate arrangements ahead of time. Method We performed a retrospective analysis of patients across North Wales who had a discharging diagnosis of acute cholecystitis from January 2010 to December 2019. Chi-square goodness-of-fit test was used to analyse seasonality of acute cholecystitis adjusting for variation in number of days between seasons. The number of days for seasons were taken as 92, 92, 91, and 90.25 for spring, summer, fall, and winter, respectively. Results Overall, 4100 patients presented to the three hospitals across North Wales with acute cholecystitis during the study period. The frequency of hospital admissions varied between months (minimum February n = 302, maximum July n = 373) and seasons (minimum winter n = 971, maximum spring n = 1067). After applying chi-square goodness-of-fit test to check significant seasonality, we did not find any significant seasonal variation in acute cholecystitis (p-value = 0.262). Conclusions Our data failed to show any significant seasonal variation in patients presenting with acute cholecystitis in North Wales. We recommend prospective collection of data at national level to validate our results.
