Planning Action

This dedication activity aims to increase the knowledge of adolescents about Propionibacterium acnes bacteria for skin health, especially acne, and form the awareness of adolescents to maintain and enhance the level of personal health. The specific target is for teenagers to be aware of how to maintain healthy skin, especially the face, remembering that adolescence is a period where their activities are very high, like activities outside the home, often forgetting to clean faces exposed to dust and dirt, as well as hormonal changes that affect the physiological of the body. This activity also provides knowledge about the bacteria Propionibacterium acnes, ranging from understanding, characteristics to the mechanism of action of bacteria. The methods and techniques of socialization consist of stages: planning, action, and reflection. 1) planning is carried out with the preparation and socialization of the program; 2) action, i.e. the implementation phase of the service, begins with exposure to the bacterium Propionibacterium acnes, the mechanism of action of the bacteria and its relation to skin health, then proceed with a question and answer session; 3) reflection, done by analyzing the participants' responses to the activities that have been carried out.

SummaryDispersal of non-sporeforming anaerobic bacteria was studied. Skin samples were taken from the subjects, and dispersal from different parts of the body was examined.The number of anaerobic bacteria dispersed was not correlated to their density on the surface of skin area exposed. The highest density of anaerobic bacteria on the skin was found in the face and upper trunk, but the highest yield of anaerobic bacteria dispersed came from the lower trunk.The dominant anaerobic bacteria dispersed were Propionibacterium acnes, but Propionibacterium avidum, Propionibacterium granulosum and Gram-positive cocci were also isolated from the dispersal samples. Peptococcus magnus was the most common coccus isolated. For the less frequently isolated bacteria, the best correlation was found between the perineal flora and airborne bacteria.A comparison was also made of bacterial dispersal by naked and dressed subjects. The dispersal of both aerobic and anaerobic bacteria was higher when the subjects were dressed in conventional operating theatre cotton clothing than when they were naked.The increased dispersal of anaerobic bacteria when the subjects were dressed was mainly due to increased dispersal of Propionibacterium sp.

Introduction Horseracing-related injuries have not been studied before in Korea in any detail, although horseracing takes place very regularly in the country. The injury rate is understandably high, owing to the weight of the horses and the speed they can achieve. The purpose of this study was to identify the incidence and the injury patterns of severe equestrian trauma, as well as the associated risk factors. Methods All patients with equestrian injuries who visited the emergency department (ED) between June 2007 and May 2011 were reviewed retrospectively. Results During the study period, 288 patients presented to ED with horse-related injury. Two hundred and eighty patients were enrolled in this study. The most common cause of the injury was a fall (168, 60.0%). The most common region of the injury was the face (123, 43.9%). The intermediate value of NISS was 3 (1-75). Thirty-two patients (11.4%) were diagnosed as having moderate to severe injury. Thoracic injuries occurred less often in cases of a fall. Facial and thoracic injuries occurred more often, however abdominal and pelvic injuries were not very common in cases of a clash. When thoracic injuries were accompanied by injuries to other parts of the body, the incidence of moderate to severe injury was very high. Conclusions Horseracing is a much rougher sport than general horse-riding. Therefore, one recommendation from this study is that jockeys who participate in horseracing should wear additional protective equipment other than a helmet and boots.

Herbal cosmetics are products that are used to improve and enhance one's look. Herbal compounds are favoured over chemical ones since they are more readily available and have less negative effects. Cosmetics are a useful chemical that is widely used around the globe to balance and improve the normal look of the face and different areas of the body, such as the hand, mouth, finger, hair, eye, and so on. Powders, creams, face packs, moisturisers, lotions, shampoo, hair oil, hair conditioners, nail paint, and other cosmetics are included. A attractive guy or beautiful lady must have soft, lustrous, and healthy skin and hair. Skin damage may be caused by a variety of factors in the environment, including bacteria, chemical poisons, and chemicals. Sandalwood and Turmeric have generally been utilized by Indian people for skin treatment, Henna to shading their hair, hands, and soles, and regular oils to fragrance their bodies. Broad home grown magnificence medicines were in the past acted in India's imperial royal residences to uplift erotic allure and protect general tidiness. Natural face wash, home grown conditioner, natural cleanser, and home grown cleanser are instances of natural beauty care products that are created and utilized consistently. Herbal cosmetics are formulations that combine active bio-ingredients, neutraceuticals, or medicines with cosmetics. Botanicals often include a variety of antioxidants, vitamins, oils, hydrocolloids, essential oils, proteins, terpenoids, and other bioactive compounds. Our ancient understanding of how to utilise plant riches, as described in Ayurveda, Unani, Siddha, and Tibetan medicine, is very useful in identifying phytochemicals.

Acne vulgaris  is a common chronic disease involving blockage and /or inflammation of pilo sebaceous units.  The resulting appearance can lead to anxiety, reduced self-esteem, and in extreme cases depression. It is the commonest dilemma associated with complexion and smoothness of skin .sometimes leading to major skin problems, which is characterized by macula, papulo, pustular eruption on the skin, especially on the face.  The role of diet and cigarette smoking in the condition is unclear and neither cleanliness nor exposure to sunlight appears to play a part. In both sexes, hormones called androgens appear to be part of the underlying mechanism, by causing increased production of sebum. In the Ayurvedic perspective Acne vulgaris  can be correlated with Mukhadushika . Mukhadushika is explained by Aacharya Sushruta under kshudra rogas and is considered as swatantra vyadhi in the ayurvedic literature. It is characterized by shalmali kantaka sadrusha pidika on the face. Mukhadushika is also called as Tarunya pitika. Tarunya pitika word itself says that it is pittikopatti in taurnya awastha due to some hormonal changes, up to limit it is normal but in excess, it becomes a reason for depression in a person. In Modern Era, physicians came across so many patients suffering from the disease, mukhadushika .The prevalence of mukhadushika increasing day by day due to their fast lifestyle, consumption of food, constipation,late-night sleep, fast food, cold drinks leads to an imbalance in doshas which in turn affects the body as well as mind.turns affects body as well as mind

Cisplatin (CDDP) a potent antitumor agent suffers from severe toxic side effects with nephrotoxicity being the major dose-limiting factor, The primary mechanism of its action has been proposed to be through its cross-linking DNA strands. It has also been shown to inactivate various transport enzymes and induce hypocalcemia and hypomagnesemia that may be the underlying cause for some of its toxicities. The present is an effort to study its influence on the parathyroid gland for any hormonal changes that control calcium levels in the body.Male Swiss Wistar rats (Crl: (WI) BR) weighing 200-300 g and of 60 days in age were injected (ip) with cisplatin (7mg/kg in normal saline). The controls received saline injections only. The animals were injected (iv) with calcium (0.5 ml of 10% calcium gluconate/day) and were killed by decapitation on day 1 through 5. Trunk blood was collected in heparinized tubes.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a widely represented species of bacteria possessing of a pathogenic potential. This infectious agent is causing wound infections, fibrotic cystitis, fibrosing pneumonia, bacterial sepsis, etc. The microorganism is highly resistant to antiseptics, disinfectants, immune system responses of the body. The responses of a quorum sense of this kind of bacteria ensure the inclusion of many pathogenicity factors. The analysis of the scientific literature made it possible to formulate four questions concerning the role of biofilms for the adaptation of P. aeruginosa to adverse environmental factors: Is another person appears to be predominantly of a source an etiological agent or the source of P. aeruginosa infection in the environment? Does the formation of biofilms influence on the antibiotic resistance? How the antagonistic activity of microorganisms is realized in biofilm form? What is the main function of biofilms in the functioning of bacteria? A hypothesis has been put forward the effect of biofilms on the increase of antibiotic resistance of bacteria and, in particular, P. aeruginosa to be secondary in charcter. It is more likely a biofilmboth to fulfill the function of storing nutrients and provide topical competition in the face of food scarcity. In connection with the incompatibility of the molecular radii of most antibiotics and pores in biofilm, biofilm is doubtful to be capable of performing a barrier function for protecting against antibiotics. However, with respect to antibodies and immunocompetent cells, the barrier function is beyond doubt. The biofilm is more likely to fulfill the function of storing nutrients and providing topical competition in conditions of scarcity of food resources.

AbstractThe forest of Doui Thabet is one of the forests of the Mounts of Saida (Western Algeria) which is experiencing a dynamic regressive. Located in the semi-arid bioclimatic stage, it is located at the edge of two phytogeographic sub-sectors: atlas Tellien Oranais (O3) and high plateau subsector (H1). Among the factors that threaten to curb this fragile and weakened ecosystem, in addition to drought and climate aridity and which has become a structural ecological phenomenon; the overgrazing is also a major limiting factor. This current study provides a qualitative and quantitative assessment of anthropogenic pressure exerted in this area zone. The methodology adopted in this study is that of Le Houerou (1969) and Montoya (1983), which it is based on the calculation of the annual needs of the herd in forage units, the estimate of the feed potential of production, the coefficient of overgrazing and in addition to the anthropogenic pressure index. The result of the forage balance in the forest rangelands of the studied area has a forage deficit (overload) of (96.64%) (a sylvopastoral imbalance), in addition to that, the coefficient of overgrazing is (92.3%) and the anthropogenic pressure index is very high (28). The conservation and the restoration of this area is a major concern in the face of global changes, taking into account their mode of reproduction and their dynamics, for the development of restoration strategies and more effective ways of protection.

Introduction: Keloids are pathological scars that are notorious for their chronic and relentless invasion into adjacent healthy skin, with commonly seen post-therapeutic recurrence after monotherapies. Methods: An English literature review on keloid pathophysiology was performed by searching the PubMed, Embase and Web of Science databases, to find out the up-to-date relevant articles. The level of evidence was evaluated based on the included studies with the highest level of evidence first. Results: Keloid morphology, signs, symptoms and the histopathological changes that occur in the local cells and extracellular matrix components are described. The theories on the pathophysiology of keloidogenesis that have been proposed to date are also covered; these include endocrinological, nutritional, vascular, and autoimmunological factors. In addition, we describe the local mechanical forces (and the mechanosignalling pathways by which these forces shape keloid cell activities) that promote keloid formation and determine the direction of invasion of keloids and the body sites that are prone to them. Conclusion: A better understanding of this pathological entity, particularly its mechanobiology, will aid the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for use in the clinic to prevent, reduce or even reverse the growth of this pathological scar. Lay Summary Keloids are skin scars that are famous for their chronic invasion into healthy skin, with commonly seen recurrence after surgeries. Cells such as lymphocytes, macrophages, mast cells and endothelial cells are involved in keloid growth. Particularly, endocrinological, nutritional, vascular, autoimmunological and mechanical factors actively take part in keloid progression.

A promising approach for the development of sustainable and resource-saving alternatives to conventional material solutions in vehicle structures is the use of renewable raw materials. One group of materials that has particular potential for this application is wood. The specific material properties of wood in the longitudinal fiber direction are comparable to typical construction materials such as steel or aluminum. Due to its comparatively low density, there is a very high lightweight construction potential especially for bending load cases. Structural components of the vehicle body are exposed to very high mechanical loads in the case of crash impact. Depending on the component under consideration, energy has to be absorbed and the structural integrity of the body has to be ensured in order to protect the occupants. The use of natural materials such as wood poses particular challenges for such applications. The material characteristics of wood are dispersed, and depend on environmental factors such as humidity. The aim of the following considerations was to develop a material system to ensure the functional reliability of the component. The test boundary conditions for validation also play a key role in this context. The potential of wood–steel hybrid design based on laminated veneer lumber and steel was investigated for use in a component subjected to crash loads such as the door impact beam. The chosen solution involves a separation of functions. A laminated veneer lumber-based beam was hybridized with a steel strip on the tension side. The steel strip was designed to compensate the comparatively low elongation at fracture of the wood and to ensure the integrity of the beam. The wooden component was designed for high energy absorption due to delamination and controlled failure during the impact, while maintaining the surface moment of inertia, i.e. the bending stiffness of the entire component. This approach was chosen to ensure the functional safety of the component, avoid sudden component failure and utilize the high potential of both materials. The tests carried out provided initial functional proof of the chosen solution. The hybridization achieved significantly higher deformations without sudden failure of the beam. In addition, bending capabilities were increased significantly compared to a beam without hybridization. In comparison with a state-of-the-art steel beam, the hybrid beam was not able to achieve the maximum deformation and the target weight of the hybrid beam. Further optimization of the hybrid beam is therefore necessary.
