Aim:  To  evaluate  the  knowledge  of  mothers  regarding  adverse consequences from the pentavalent vaccination before and after they participated in an educative  intervention.  Method:  This is  a  quasi-experimental  study,  with  a  before-and-after analysis, of a single group of 100 mothers of breastfeeding babies, from September to October 2014, in an outpatient clinic of a public maternity hospital in the municipality of  Imperatriz,  Brazil.  Results:  Following  the  intervention, a  significant  increase  in understanding  was  observed  among  the  study  participants  in  all  questions  (p<0.05) regarding adverse events after the pentavalent vaccine. After the intervention, there was a significant increase of right answers to the questions: who to seek advice from after an adverse  event  due  to  the  vaccine  (p=0.004)  and  which  adverse  events  from  the pentavalent vaccine are known to mothers (p=0.04). Conclusion: The results indicate a positive change in the  level  of  understanding  of  mothers regarding the  adverse  events after the  pentavalent vaccination.  The  study  provides  a  basis  for the  adoption  of long-term intervention strategies for nurses.

The aim of this study was to retrospectively review the long-term hearing results and the impact of mastoid exclusion/obliteration in patients with cholesteatoma (102 ears) who underwent retrograde tympanomastoidectomy and in whom bone chips/paté were applied as the sole materials during the procedure. In 79 ears, this was combined with ossiculoplasty in a single-stage procedure. In >71% of ears, the results of audiometric testing were monitored for more than 2 years. The results suggested there was a significant gain in hearing following surgery, with respect to the postoperative change in both air-conduction thresholds and air-bone gaps (P<0.001). Linear regression analyses of pure-tone averages at different frequencies, before and after surgery, demonstrated that patients benefitted from a postoperative hearing gain at low and middle frequencies, but their hearing often deteriorated at frequencies of 8000 Hz. As for the impact of the type of tympanoplasty on hearing outcomes, type III-interposition markedly increased hearing gain. The overall rate of postoperative adverse events was 8.8%. We conclude that reconstruction of the ear canal and mastoid via mastoid exclusion/obliteration using bone chips/paté can be considered as an alternative procedure following retrograde mastoidectomy. It gives excellent surgical results and has fewer postoperative adverse events.

Background: Stigma is a major problem in schizophrenia, and the most effective way to reduce it is to provide information. But literature lacks studies evaluating long-term efficacy of mass communication. Aims: This is a pilot study to assess if a brief intervention (TV report) may have long-term effects. Method: Assessing stigma scores from subjects before and after seeing a vignette. Results: We found that the social distance and restriction to patients not only fell after a brief intervention but also kept lower after 1 and 3 months. Conclusion: We conclude that even brief intervention may create persistent impact in reducing discrimination.

Abstract: The large number of bullying cases involving teenagers both as perpetrators and victims shows that intervention is needed to prevent the increasing number of cases. The education process for adolescents will be effective if it is carried out by their peers. Therefore, a module is needed to provide education for adolescents so that they can act as counselors for their peers in order to prevent bullying from occurring. The purpose of the community service activities carried out is to implement the Remaja “PEDULI” (Peka, Dukung, Lindungi) program to increase participants' knowledge of bullying and the skills needed as peer counselors.This training was conducted online for 2 meetings and post training assignments. The Remaja “PEDULI” module was developed using the ADDIE approach which consist of analisys, design, develop, implement, and evaluate. The impact of the module implementation was tested using a quasi-experimental method used a single group with a pretest and postest design. Result of data analysis showed that there was differences between mean test scores of participants before and after the training with value of t = -2.921 and value of p = 0.005 (p <0.01). It can be concluded that the Remaja “PEDULI” program is effective in increasing adolescents' knowledge about bullying and skills required as peer counselors. Keywords: adolescents; bullying; online training            Abstrak: Banyaknya kasus bullying yang banyak melibatkan remaja baik sebagai pelaku maupun korban menunjukkan bahwa dibutuhkan intervensi untuk mencegah meningkatnya jumlah kasus tersebut.

Abstract Introduction Mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR) affect the quantity and/or function of CFTR protein reaching the cell surface. Ivacaftor, a CFTR potentiator that enhances chloride transport, increases the channel-open probability of normal and dysfunctional CFTR. Initially approved for people with CF (pwCF) with G551D-CFTR gating mutations, ivacaftor demonstrated clinical benefit in pwCF with other gating mutations and certain residual function mutations, including R117H-CFTR, in clinical studies. We evaluated the long-term safety and efficacy of ivacaftor in pwCF aged 6 years and older with non-G551D-CFTR ivacaftor-responsive mutations. Methods Efficacy and safety data from a phase 3, multicenter, open-label, extension study for participants from Study 110 (R117H-CFTR mutations), Study 111 (non–G551D-CFTR gating mutations), and Study 113 (n-of-1 pilot study in participants with residual CFTR function) were analyzed. Following washout from the randomized parent study, participants received oral ivacaftor 150 mg once every 12 h for 104 weeks. Results Forty-one of 121 participants completed treatment through 104 weeks; 59 participants who did not complete the extension study continued treatment with commercial ivacaftor. The most common adverse events were pulmonary exacerbation (46.3%) and cough (33.9%). Most treatment-emergent adverse events were mild/moderate in severity and consistent with manifestations of CF or the ivacaftor safety profile. Rapid, durable improvement occurred across all efficacy endpoints. Conclusions Ivacaftor was generally safe and well tolerated with no new safety concerns for up to 104 weeks in pwCF with ivacaftor-responsive mutations. The pattern of improvement across efficacy endpoints was durable and generally consistent with parent-study outcomes. Trial Registration NCT01707290

Food additives are materials added to food to affect the nature or shape of the food. These condiments can cause adverse effects on health if being consumed every day more than the amount in mg/Kg body weight. In addition, there are food additives that are prohibited, such as boric acid, formalin, salicylic acid, and others. The lack of understanding of junior high school (SMP) students regarding food additives that are allowed and prohibited cause students to be more likely exposed to foods that contain harmful substances that will accumulate or cause negative effects in the long term. This Community Service Activity aims to improve the understanding of School Health Unit (UKS) cadre students regarding food additives and balanced nutrition. This activity was attended by students from SMPN 1 Singosari, SMP 4 Muhammadiyah Singosari, and SMP Islam Bani Hasyim Singosari. Before and after the counseling material regarding food additives and balanced nutrition, the level of understanding was measured using pre and post-tests. The test results were then analyzed using independent T-test statistics with a confidence level of 95. The results of this activity indicate that there is an increase in participants' knowledge (40%) about food additives and balanced nutrition. Counseling is one of the ways to increase students' understanding of food additives as food safety and balanced nutrition is important to support growth and development.

Abstract Background Worldwide, most adolescent girls do not meet physical activity (PA) recommendations and very few PA programs are tailored specifically towards them. Even fewer information exists about the long-term effects of such programs. Some Canadian schools have implemented the FitSpirit PA intervention designed specifically for girls aged 12 to 17 years old. This paper describes the protocol of a quasi-experimental study evaluating long-term changes in health behaviours and outcomes following FitSpirit participation. Methods The study is conducted among schools that partner with FitSpirit every year. It started in 2018 and will be completed in 2022. The intervention comprises motivational talks, a turnkey running program, PA sessions and special events. Study participants fill out an online questionnaire twice a year. Follow-up questionnaires are sent at the end of each school year to the study participants who dropout from FitSpirit. The main outcome, changes in PA levels, is evaluated using questions validated for adolescents. Secondary outcomes are health (perceived health); lifestyle habits (sedentary activities, eating and sleeping habits); psychosocial outcomes (physical self-efficacy and body satisfaction); and FitSpirit appreciation (activity participation and satisfaction). Most questions originate from questionnaires validated for the adolescent population. Cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses will be performed. Discussion This study will provide one of the first longitudinal reports on the impact of a large extra-curricular PA intervention designed specifically for adolescent girls. The current study will uniquely contribute to PA research by assessing outcomes additional to PA levels, including markers of health, lifestyle habits and psychosocial determinants. Trial registration NCT, NCT03804151, Registered on January 22, 2019; retrospectively registered.
