Background: Studies show that diabetes mellitus is the greatest lifestyle risk factor for dementia. Appropriate management and treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus could prevent the onset and progression of mild cognitive impairment to dementia. MoCA test is high sensitivity with mild dementia but it have not been used and studied widespread in Vietnam. Aim: 1. Using MoCA and MMSE to diagnose dementia in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. 2. Assessment of the relationship between dementia and the risk factors. Methods: cross-sectional description in 102 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE) and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) were used to assess cognitive function. The diagnosis of dementia was made according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. Results: The average value for MoCA in the group of patients with dementia (15.35 ± 2.69) compared with non-dementia group (20.72 ± 4.53). The sensitivity and specificity of MoCA were 84.8% and 78.3% in identifying individuals with dementia, and MMSE were 78.5% and 82.6%, respectively. Using DSMIV criteria as gold standard we found MoCA and MMSE were more similar for dementia cases (AUC 0.871 and 0.890). The concordance between MoCA and MMSE was moderate (kappa = 0.485). When considering the risk factors, the education,the age, HbA1c, dyslipidemia, Cholesterol total related with dementia in the type 2 diabetes. Conclusion: MoCA scale is a good screening test of dementia in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.When compared with the MMSE scale, MoCA scale is more sensitive in detecting dementia.

Abstract Background To examine associations of socioeconomic position (SEP), separately indicated by education, monthly family average income (FAI) and occupation, with health literacy (HL) among adults in regional China. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted among urban and rural adults (aged 25–69 years) who were randomly selected, using the probability proportionate to size sampling approach, from Nanjing municipality of China during October and December of 2016. HL, the outcome variable, was assessed using the Chinese Resident Health Literacy Scale. SEP, our independent variable, was separately measured with educational attainment, monthly family average income and occupation. Logistic regression models were introduced to examine SEP-HL association with odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Results Totally, 8698 participants completed the survey. The proportion of participants with unweighted and weighted adequate HL was 18.0% (95%CI = 17.2, 18.8%) and 19.9% (95%CI = 16.6, 23.6%), respectively, in this study. After adjustment for possible confounding factors, each SEP indicator was in significantly positive relation to both unweighted and weight HL level. Participants who obtained 13+ and 10–12 years educational attainment, respectively, had 2.41 (95%CI = 1.60, 3.64) and 1.68 (95%CI = 1.23, 2.29) times odds to record weighted adequate HL compared to their counterparts who were with 0–9 years education. Subjects within upper (OR = 1.92, 95%CI = 1.24, 2.98) and middle FAI tertile (OR = 1.59, 95%CI = 1.19, 2.13), respectively, were more likely to report weighted adequate HL relative to those who were within lower FAI tertile. White collars were more likely to have weighted adequate HL (OR = 1.33, 95%CI = 1.09, 1.61) than blue collars. Conclusions Each of education, FAI and occupation was positively associated with health literacy among urban and rural adults in China. The findings have important implications that different SEP indicators can be used to identify vulnerable residents in population-based health literacy promotion campaigns.

The study sought to establish factors that contribute towards food security among elderly headed households and then seek ways of enhancing them. The study was conducted in Mudzi District in Mashonaland East Province of Zimbabwe. Data was collected from wards 11, 12 and 16. The study used cross sectional household data collected using a structured questionnaire. Two measures of food security are used; namely household food insecurity access score and household dietary diversity score. The results showed that food insecurity access score was statistically higher for elderly headed household when compared to those headed by younger people. The study revealed that social capital, remittances, and off farm income generating projects can increase the elderly headed household’s likelihood of being food secure. The study also showed that public assistance is not making a positive contribution towards food security of elderly headed household. This paper argues that it is important for government and civil society to promote social capital and support channels of remittances to elderly headed households in communal areas.

The height of the maxillary alveolar ridge can be measured using panoramic radiography. The decline occurred because the height of the alveolar ridge undergoes slow physiological resorption due to the absence of mechanical stimulus. The purpose of this research is to know the difference and the average height of the maxillary alveolar ridge in edentulous and dentate women using panoramic radiography. This study is an analytical method with a cross-sectional approach. A total sample of 40 women, edentulous and dentate has been measured. Measurements were made by measuring the distance between the lowest point of the infraorbital ridge and alveolar crest maxilla on the incisor point, right and left premolar, right and left molar. A statistical test is done using independent t-test. The results showed that the average value of a dentate women sample is greater than edentulous. The average value obtained by the dentate sample is greatest in incisor point by 37,57mm± 3,34mm and the smallest at the right molar point by 33,87mm ± 2,81mm. The average value obtained by the edentulous sample is greatest in incisor point by 35,30mm ± 2,79mm and the smallest at the right molar point by 31,84mm ± 3,85mm. It can be concluded that there is a significant difference in the height of the maxillary alveolar ridge on an edentulous sample and dentate, except the right molar teeth. The average height of the maxillary alveolar ridge in an edentulous sample is 33,35mm ± 3,43mm, and the dentate sample is 35,66mm ± 3,21mm.

Introduction: Facial profile can be influenced by edentulous condition that can change mandibular morphology that can affect mastication, digestion and psychosocial life. Edentulism causes absence of occlusal mechanical stimulus, decrease the activity of mastication muscles and increase mandibular bone resorption. These changes can be assessed using panoramic radiography by looking at the vertical dimension of the head of the condyle and its shape, ramus, and the angle of the mandible. The aim of the study was to assess the mean value and differences of mandibular morphology in edentulous and dentate patients using panoramic radiography. Materials and Methods: This was an analytical study with cross-sectional approach using purposive sampling methods. 50 dentate and edentulous patients who came to Dentistry Hospital of University of Sumatera Utara were used as sample. Data analysis was done using Independent T test and MannWhitney test. Results: Results showed that the average value of gonial angle, ramus height, condylar height, antegonial notch depth and ramus notch depth in edentulous patients were 125,38 ± 9,51; 35.98mm ± 4.26; 5.58mm ± 0.90; 2.11mm ± 1.04; and 2.73mm ± 0, 88, and the results showed that the average value of mandibular morphology in dentate patients were 123.34 ± 7.07; 38.15mm ± 3.23; 6.95mm ± 1.25; 1.41mm ± 0.77; and 2.15mm ± 0.59. Conclusion(s): There were significant differences in the values of ramus height, condylar height, antegonial notch depth, and ramus notch depth. Difference was also found in gonial angle value, but was not statistically significant.

Study phytoremediation of lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) by kayambang plants (Salvinia molesta) has been studied. This study assessed the ability of plants to absorb Pb and Cd which is influenced by the addition of various metal and NPK fertilizer on the medium containing the test solution. Samples of plants were interacted with NPK fertilizer, Pb and Cd. The variations of  NPK 1 mg/L, I,5 mg/L, 2,5 mg/L and 10 mg/L and the variations of Pb (100 mg/L, 400 mg/L and 800 mg/L) and cadmium (50 mg/L, 100 mg/L and             200 mg/L). Optimum pH for growing the Kayambang plants (Salvinia molesta) is a range pH of 6-7. Observations were made every 7 days until the day of 35th, by measuring levels of Cd and Pb after the interaction of plants (roots, non-roots and growing media). The results showed that the   Pb and Cd accumulation are  higher at the root compared to non-root (stem and leaf). Effect of NPK fertilizer is very evident in the heavy plant where increasing levels of NPK fertilizer plant, the more heavy weight. The average value of FT in kayambang plants (Salvinia molesta)>1, then the plant can be used as a phytoremediator agent. The   highest  value  FT  of  Pb is 11.22 and shown on condition [NPK] 10 mg/L, [Pb] 100 mg/L at day of 21th  and for highest value FT of Cd  is  9.57 and shown  on condition [NPK] 10 mg/L, [Cd] 100 mg/L and day of 35th
