Background: Present study was designed as to determine the probability and relative risk of COVID-19 in suspects with positive contacts history. Methods: A cross sectional observational study was conducted in district Nowshera on COVID-19 suspects/patients. A total of 365 suspects/patients were included from Feb 10 to April 20, 2020. All the data was uploaded on SPSS version 25 that was designed for this particular study. Results: Out of total 365, 264(72.3%) were males and 101(27.7%) females. The descriptive statistics of age with mean and standard deviation was 35+16 years. 12/41(29.26%) positive cases were recorded in age>55 years of age. Historyof contact with positive COVID-19 patients was contributing in35/41(85.36%) confirmed cases. There was a significant relation of an increase in age with viral infectivity (Chi-Square=11.48, p=0.009). A strong relationship of positive close contact history with COVID-19 infection (Chi-Square=19.56, p=0.001) was recorded. The probability of the infection with 2019-nCoV in patients with close contact history was 6.12 times more than suspects with no contact history (OR=6.12, 95%CI, 2.5-14.9). The relative risk of infection was (rr=1.75, 95%CI, 1.4-2.07) in suspects with positive contacts as compared to no contacts history (rr=0.28, 95%CI, 0.1-0.6). Conclusion: The probability, relative risk and correlation of history of contacts with strong suspects/ COVID-19 patients increase the chances of infectivity with 2019nCoV in folds.

A statement by Cragin (1916),  “Once a cesarean, always a cesarean”, has been a growing paradigm in the community which makes VBAC not a common practice. Flamm Geiger Scoring System is used to predict the likelihood of success in VBAC. The purpose of this research was to find out the association between Flamm Geiger score and the success of vaginal delivery. This research was an analytic observational study with cross sectional design. The population of this research were all patients that underwent delivery in dr. Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital Palembang from January to December  2014 and  the sample were all delivering patient with history of cesarean delivery.The data were taken from patient’s medical record and analyzed using Chi Square test or its alternative test (Fisher’s Exact Test). From 92 samples, there were 25 patients (27,2%) succeeded in undergoing VBAC and 67 patients (72,8%) delivered with repeated cesarean. There was an increasing probability for a successful VBAC ranging from 0% in samples with a score of 0-2 to 100% in samples with a score of 8-10. The result showed that there was an association between Flamm Geiger score and the success of vaginal delivery (p=0,000).

They include modalities that involves punches or kicks directed at the opponent's head (Striking sports) or that consists of grabbing an opponent and taking him to the ground (Grappling sports). Due to the objectives and close contact in combat sports, the risk of concussion is significant.Design/MethodsThis was a cross-sectional study involving a Brazilian sample of BJJ athletes (n-18) and Muay Thai athletes (n-22). The sample was consisted of both professional and amateur athletes (Women constituted 20% of sample). Through individual interviews with a researcher the following data were collected: self-report of concussion and the moment of the injury (whether in practice or in the fight). The Post-Concussion Symptoms Scale (PCSS) was also applied. In the present study, a concussion was considered as a direct impact on the head followed by symptoms. This study was approved by a local Ethics Committee.ResultsAmong BJJ athletes, 61% reported a history of concussion, while among Muay Thai athletes the percentage was more higher (86%). The main mechanisms of head impact were the throw/takedown and elbow-hits to the head in BJJ and punches and knee-hits to the head in Muay Thai. There was no difference in the symptom score between BJJ and Muay Thai concussed athletes (average of 11 vs 10.7, respectively). The most common symptoms were dizziness, headache and nausea in BJJ athletes, and headache, nausea, drowsiness and brain fogginess in Muay Thai ones.ConclusionsThe results presented herein suggest that concussions in Muay Thai and BJJ occur through different mechanisms. The clinical profile of post-concussion symptoms appears to be different between BJJ and Muay Thai athletes.

The proportion of migraine and other headache syndromes in the hospital. Harapan Bunda in 2011 and RS. Camatha Sahidya in Batam in Batam was 5% and 0.7% respectively. Whereas the incidence of tension headaches in 5 puskesmas in Batam in 2014 ranged from 0.5% - 1.3%. The proportion of tension headaches at the BIP Clinic in the January-April 2018 period is 1.5%. Tension-type headaches that occur continuously can cause barriers to daily activities.
