Objectives: Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women. In addition, it is the most mentally powerful cancer in women due to affecting the most important female sexual part. Patients with breast cancer experience problems in their marital relationship because of their disrupted mental image and sexual relations. In this regard, this study was conducted to investigate the relationship between sexual self-concept and mental body image in women with breast cancer. Materials and Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on a sample of 120 women with breast cancer. Using a convenience sampling technique, patients were selected from among those hospitalized in the selected hospitals of Tehran in 2018. Data were collected using demographic details, the Multidimensional Sexual Self-Concept Questionnaire (MSSCQ), and the Fisher’s Body Focus questionnaire. Finally, the data were statistically analyzed in SPSS-21. Results: According to the descriptive and analytical statistics, women with breast cancer obtained the highest scores in avoiding risky sex and sexual problem prevention while the lowest scores in terms of sexual preoccupation. Based on the results, there was no disruption in the body image of any of the examined women. Eventually, a significant correlation was observed between sexual self-concept and body image (P<0.001, r=0.4). Conclusions: In general, body image has a positive relationship with sexual self-concept in women with breast cancer and is considered an important predictor of sexual health and behaviors of this group. Accordingly, psychological interventions, along with midwifery and sexual consultations offered by trained personnel can help empower these patients.

Dermatitis  is a disease that attacks the skin on the surface of the body which is commonly found among residents in hot, humid climates, poor personal hygiene, poor environment, and workers who deal with dirt (e.g. garbage and sewers). This study aimed to determine the relationship between personal hygiene and the use of PPE for scavengers with skin diseases at the TPA Telaga Punggur, Batam City. The method used was descriptive quantitative using a cross-sectional study design. The population in this study were all scavengers in TPA Telaga Punggur as many as 791 scavengers and as many as 89 scavengers who were sampled by purposive sampling technique. The results showed that 75.3% had poor personal hygiene and 73.0% did not wear PPE when working, and 70.8% had skin diseases. There is a relationship between personal hygiene (p = 0.006) and the use of PPE (p = 0.000) with the incidence of skin disease at Telaga Punggur landfill. Scavengers are expected to pay attention to clean and healthy living behavior by maintaining personal hygiene and always using personal protective equipment when working.

INTRODUCTION: Programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) plays a role in tumor escape and progression by inactivating T lymphocytes. The aim of the study reported here was to determine the relationship between the expression of PD-L1 and histopathological grade, stage of disease, and the occurrence of metastasis in breast cancer. METHODS: The observational cross-sectional study involved analyzing the expression of PD-L1 by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: PD-LI was expressed in 43 of 60 patients with breast cancer (71.6%), mostly with a moderate histopathological grade (58.3%) and at an advanced stage (50%). Associations between the expression of PD-L1 and histopathological grade (p = 0.011), stage of disease (p = 0.009), and the occurrence of metastasis (p = 0.01) were significant, with an odds ratio of 5. CONCLUSION: The associations between the expression of PD-L1 and histopathological grade, disease stage, and occurrence of metastasis were all significant in cases of breast cancer in the sample. Those findings suggest that the expression of PD-L1 increases the progression of breast cancer.

The Relationship

Past research links a decrease in religiosity with the development of marketing and, in particular, with the growing role of brands in consumers’ lives. Building on James's (1920) theory of the self, we propose that focusing on brands as a strategy for self-expression (brand engagement in self-concept; BESC) does not exclude religious commitment and may even be related with higher levels of religious commitment. We also suggest that this relationship is moderated by grandiose narcissism. The hypotheses were tested on a sample of 306 individuals in a cross-sectional study. The findings provide evidence that BESC is positively related to religious commitment and the higher an individual’s narcissism is, the stronger the positive relationship between BESC and religious commitment. These findings suggest that using brands as a strategy for self-expression is not a substitute for religious commitment.
