Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a high risk for active smokers. Early assessment of the condition of lung function is needed to prevent a decrease in lung function. Knowledge of self-management that determines lung health. The purpose of this study was to determine the knowledge of lung function health in predicting respiratory disorders. The study design was a case-control from August 2018 to January 2019. Data was collected through a questionnaire, namely a lung health knowledge questionnaire consisting of categories: risk factors, symptoms, and therapy for respiratory disorders. The research sample was adult men who work in the transportation sector in Surabaya city using purposive sampling. Data analysis using chi-square. The data obtained were 300 people, consisting of 126 people without lung function disorders and 174 people with pulmonary function disorders. The risk factor knowledge category showed a significant difference (p=0.000) between the group, with the most disorders at the low knowledge level (42.0%). The symptom knowledge category showed a significant difference (p=0.000) between groups, and most of the groups with disorders were at a low knowledge level (55.8%). The category of knowledge of respiratory symptoms showed a significant difference (p=0.000) between groups, with the knowledge level in both of them mostly at a sufficient level. Therefore, low lung function health knowledge reflects low lung function conditions. IDENTIFIKASI PENGETAHUAN KESEHATAN FUNGSI PARU DALAM MEMPREDIKSI GANGGUAN PERNAPASAN PADA PEROKOKPenyakit paru obstruktif kronik (PPOK) berisiko tinggi dialami oleh perokok aktif. Pengkajian dini terhadap kondisi fungsi paru diperlukan untuk mencegah penurunan fungsi paru. Pengetahuan tentang manajemen diri yang menentukan kesehatan paru. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengetahui pengetahuan kesehatan fungsi paru dalam memprediksi gangguan pernapasan. Desain penelitian adalah case-control dari Agustus 2018 hingga Januari 2019. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui kuesioner, yaitu kuesioner pengetahuan kesehatan paru yang terdiri atas kategori: faktor risiko, gejala, dan terapi gangguan pernapasan. Sampel penelitian adalah laki-laki dewasa yang bekerja di sektor transportasi di Kota Surabaya dengan menggunakan purposive sampling. Analisis data menggunakan chi-square. Data yang diperoleh sebanyak 300 orang, terdiri atas 126 orang tanpa gangguan fungsi paru dan 174 orang dengan gangguan fungsi paru. Kategori pengetahuan faktor risiko menunjukkan perbedaan yang bermakna (p=0,000) antarkelompok dengan gangguan terbanyak pada pengetahuan tingkat rendah (42,0%). Kategori pengetahuan gejala menunjukkan perbedaan yang bermakna (p=0,000) antarkelompok dan sebagian besar kelompok dengan gangguan berada pada pengetahuan tingkat rendah (55,8%). Kategori pengetahuan gejala pernapasan menunjukkan perbedaan yang bermakna (p=0,000) antarkelompok dengan tingkat pengetahuan keduanya sebagian besar pada tingkat cukup. Oleh karena itu, pengetahuan kesehatan fungsi paru yang rendah mencerminkan kondisi fungsi paru yang rendah.

Abstract Background Oral care is acknowledged as an integral component of general health and plays an essential role in establishing the desired level of quality of life for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Purpose To investigate oral health knowledge and dental behaviors in individuals with ASD in comparison with individuals without ASD in Jordan. Methods A case–control study was carried out among 296 caregivers of individuals with ASD (n = 147) and control (n = 149) groups. A closed ended, validated self-designed questionnaire was distributed. The questionnaire included questions addressing participant’s oral health knowledge and behaviour. Data were analyzed using SPSS® software Version 22 with a 0.05 level of significance. A Chi-square test and contingency-table analysis were performed. Results Individuals with ASD in Jordan were significantly less knowledgeable about different oral health aspects than individuals without ASD (p < 0.05). Fewer individuals in the ASD group brushed their teeth once or twice daily (89%), compared to the control group (93%). Only 15% of the ASD participants could brush their teeth without help. The use of fluoridated toothpaste and the frequency of using mouth rinse demonstrated a significant difference between groups (p < 0.05). Conclusion ASD individuals in Jordan suffer from a significant lack of oral knowledge comparing to their controls, leading to a misunderstanding of the basic and highly important dental health aspects. Indicating that the knowledge was not enough to influence their dental behaviors. Children with ASD and their families should receive appropriate education in special need oral health care given by oral health professionals to reduce the risk of having dental problems and oral disease and enhance their quality of life.

ABSTRACTBackgroundAs the number of new cases and death due to COVID-19 is increasing, understanding the characteristics of severe COVID-19 patients and identifying characteristics that lead to death is a key to make an informed decision. In Ethiopia, as of September 27, 2020, a total of 72,700 cases and 1165 deaths were reported.ObjectiveThe study aimed to assess the determinants of death in Severe COVID-19 patients admitted to Millennium COVID-19 Care Center in Ethiopia.MethodsA case-control study of 147 Severe COVID-19 patients (49 deaths and 98 discharged alive cases) was conducted from August to September 2020. A comparison of underlying characteristics between cases (death) and controls (alive) was assessed using a chi-square test and an independent t-test with a p-value of <0.05 considered as having a statistically significant difference. Multivariable binary logistic regression was used to assess a statistically significant association between the predictor variables and outcome of Severe COVID-19 (Alive Vs Death) where Adjusted Odds ratio (AOR), 95% CIs for AOR, and P-values were used for testing significance and interpretation of results.ResultsHaving diabetes mellitus (AOR= 3.257, 95% CI= 1.348, 7.867, p-value=0.00), fever (AOR=0.328, 95% CI: 0.123, 0.878, p-value= 0.027) and Shortness of breath (AOR= 4.034, 95% CI= 1.481, 10.988, p-value=0.006) were found to be significant predictors of death in Severe COVID-19 patients.ConclusionsThe outcome of death in Severe COVID-19 patients is found to be associated with exposures to being diabetic and having SOB at admission. On the other hand, having a fever at admission was associated with a favorable outcome of being discharged alive.
