Student Politics

The purpose of the study is to review the long glorious history of student politics in Bangladesh under different regime and to illustrate the recent trends of student politics. The study includes two parts, first part is entirely based on a literature review and second portion includes a field survey. Twenty two literatures have been selected as a data set through searching Web of Science, SCOPUS and Google Scholar databases by using the relevant keywords for reviewing the past experiences of student politics. On the other hand, a field survey has been conducted using the unknown population sampling technique, where student’s perceptions toward present student politics have been explored. From the literature review, it is found that student politics in Bangladesh has a magnificent past history of fighting and greatest sacrifice for the national interest during all turning points of the country, including anti-British movement in 1940s, the language movement of 1948 to 1952, six point movement of 1966, mass upsurge of 1969, liberation war of 1971, and the falling of military dictator Ershad in 1990s. Unfortunately, the impression of this historic student politics have been transformed to the personal goal accomplishment after starting democratic forms of government in 1991, when student organizations are mostly found to be used as the political weapons of mainstream political parties. The results of field survey also complemented that the perception of present party backed student politics is mostly focused on personal agenda or their mother party’s political agenda rather than national or common interest of the students.

Introduction: Psychiatric emergencies are acute mental health disturbances, behavior and social relationship that require immediate intervention. The major role of psychiatric emergency services is to provide mental health care services for patients with acute mental health problems. Design emergency psychiatry core dataset has improved the coordination and integration of services and improved the outcomes for the patient with severe and persistent mental illness with complex needs. So the aim of this study was to design data elements (DEs) in emergency psychiatry for Iran.   Methods: This is an applied study. Emergency psychiatry (DEs) collected via literature review and then psychologist and psychiatrist (16 experts) assign the score from 0 to 5 to them according to the value of each data element. (DEs)  selected as core Emergency psychiatry (DEs) that were achieved 4 or 5 scores from 75% specialist.   Results: According to the literature review, 110 (DEs) included studying. 13 experts (8 psychologists, 8 Clinical Psychologist) evaluated psychiatric emergency (DEs) set. The average work experience of psychiatrists and psychologists was 16 years and their work experience ranged from 2 to 25 years (table 1). according to the experts opinion, 54 (DEs) with at least 75% of the agreement were identified as the psychiatric emergency (DEs). Emergency psychiatric (DEs) and average agreement of each of them were: demographic characteristics (6 DEs with an agreement average of 82.5%), history of mental illness (9 DEs with an agreement average of 79%), family history of psychology (3 DEs with an average agreement of 77.08%), medical history (1 DEs with an average agreement of 81.25 %) Assessment of mental status ( 20 DEs with an average agreement of 82%), assessment of the self harm risk or harm risk for others ( 13 DEs with an average agreement of 93.6%) and diagnosis and treatment (3 DEs with an average agreement of 81.25%). Conclusion: Given the importance of psychiatric disorder and lack of the national system for gathering psychiatric information, perform the same study abut psychiatric data element is very important. The results of this study can be used for design psychiatric emergency forms and gather accurate and complete patient information.

Background: Febrile seizure is convulsions with fever (temperature ³38°C) with no central nervous system infection that commonly found in children (6-60 months). Febrile seizures do not always mean the child has epilepsy. However, febrile seizures can be a possible long-term risk factor for epilepsy. Objective: The objective of this study is to know the profile of febrile seizure in patients with epilepsy. Methods: A retrospective descriptive study on 23 patients with epilepsy in the EEG Department of Neurology, Dr. Soetomo General Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia in the period 2018-2019 based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The total number of epilepsy patients is 849 patients, 216 of whom had a history of febrile seizure. Among 216 epilepsy patients who had a history of febrile seizures, 23 of them were qualified as the sample. The sampling technique used was total population sampling. The instrument of this research is the patients’ medical record. Data analysis is carried out descriptively. Results: The characteristics of the history of febrile seizures that found in patients with epilepsy are more patients are male, have the age of onset on less than 2 years old, have the body temperature more than 38.3°C, have the seizure duration less than 15 minutes, have focal seizures, have recurrent seizures in 24 hours, have a history of more than one febrile seizure, have accompanying neurological disorders, and have no family history of epilepsy. Conclusion: Febrile seizure is still becoming a concern because there is a possibility that it may develop into epilepsy. Even though, not all children who experience febrile seizure will generate epilepsy.

<p><em>Jember Regency is a superior area in the agricultural sector, but it is contrary to the health conditions of the people. It was noted that Jember experienced an increase in cases of Diabetes Mellitus (DM). DM causes various complications, one of which often occurs is peripheral neuropathy. This study aims to analyze peripheral neuropathy based on the characteristics of people with diabetes in the agriculture area under the auspices of the Health Department of Jember Regency. This type of research is descriptive with the cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique used is total population sampling. The number of respondents in this study was 102 people with diabetes. The instrument used was a modification of the MNSI (Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument) and MDNS (Michigan Diabetic Neuropathy Score). Univariate analysis is performed, which is presented in the form of frequency distribution tables and cross-tabulation. The results of this study indicate that all respondents experienced peripheral neuropathy (100%) in the mild (43.1%), moderate (44.2%), and severe (12.7%) categories. Domination of neuropathy by women (53.9%), has comorbidities (68.6%), middle adult age categories (71.6%), blood sugar levels 90-199 mg/dL (57.8%), and duration of DM ≥ 1 to 5 years (58.8%). A small percentage of people with diabetes who have peripheral neuropathy have a history of DFU (9.8%) and a history of smoking (32.4%). This nursing intervention is needed to prevent worsening of peripheral neuropathy.</em></p>

Objective: The objective of the study was to determine the prevalence of non-specific neck pain among Surgeons in different hospitals of Lahore and developed some guidelines to reduce the occupational hazards. Materials and Methods: It was a cross-sectional study. Non-Probability Convenient sampling technique was used. Data was collected from surgeons working in tertiary care hospitals of Lahore Inclusion criteria included Surgeons (25 years or above), both genders selected and Neck pain in cervical region, surgery of consecutive 2- 3 hours or more. Exclusion criteria included age under 25 years, any neurological disorders, cerebrovascular insufficiency, Past history of Infection and Malignancy, any Structural disorders and Trauma. Data was collected by questionnaire form set on paper. Results: Non-specific neck pain has positive statistically significant association with “Starting of Neck Pain Surgical Day”, “Starting of Neck Pain Post-Surgical Day”, “Worsening of Neck Pain Surgical Day” and “Worsening of Neck Pain Post-Surgical Day Conclusion: It concluded that the surgeons are not getting neck pain due to the surgical activities but it may worsen by their surgical activities of consecutive 3 hours if they already have some neck-related problems. Recommendations: Prolong working hours should be reduced which ultimately affect their ergonomics and posture of neck. By reducing consecutive hours of surgery neck pain can be minimized. Surgeons should be trained about their postural alignment while performing surgeries as to prevent maximum stress on neck musculature to avoid neck pain.

Abstract Background: abortion and stillbirths are the common obstetrics condition in Ethiopia and their effect on the next pregnancy was not well identified in resource limited settings. The aim of the study was to assess the effect of stillbirth and abortion on the next pregnancy.Methods: A prospective cohort study design was implemented. The study was conducted in Mecha demographic surveillance and field research center catchment areas. The data were collected from January 2015 to March 2019. Epi-info software was used to calculate the sample size. The systematic random sampling technique was used to select stillbirth and abortion women. Poison regression was used to identify the predictors of MCH service utilization; descriptive statistics were used to identify the prevalence of blood borne pathogens. The Kaplan Meier survival curve was used to estimate survival to pregnancy and pregnancy related medical disorders.Results: 1091 stillbirth and 3,026 abortion women were followed. Hepatitis B was present in 6% of abortion and 3.2 % of stillbirth women. Hepatitis C was diagnosed in 4.7 % of abortion and 0.3 % of stillbirth women. HIV was detected in 3 % of abortion and 0.8 % of stillbirth women. MCH service utilization was determined by knowledge of contraceptives [IRR 1.29, 95% CI: 1.18-1.42], tertiary education [IRR 4.29, 95% CI: 3.72 -4.96], secondary education. [IRR 3.14, 95% CI: 2.73 -3.61], married women [IRR 2.08, 95% CI: 1.84 -2.34], family size women [IRR 0.67, 95% CI: 1.001 -1.01], the median time of pregnancy after stillbirth and abortion were 12 months. Ante-partum hemorrhage was observed in 23.1 % of pregnant mothers with a past history of abortion cases and post-partum hemorrhage was observed in 25.6 % of pregnant mothers with a past history of abortion.PIDM was observed 14.3 % of pregnant mothers with a past history of stillbirth and pregnancy-induced hypertension was observed in 9.2 % of mothers with a past history of stillbirth.

AbstractReports of incidental pneumomediastinum in infants secondary to inflicted trauma are limited. A retrospective review of infants with pneumomediastinum and history of inflicted trauma was performed. A comprehensive literature review was performed. Three infants presented with pneumomediastinum associated with inflicted trauma. Mean age was 4.6 weeks. All patients underwent diagnostic studies, as well as a standardized evaluation for nonaccidental trauma. All patients with pneumomediastinum were resolved at follow-up. Review of the literature identified other cases with similar presentations with related oropharyngeal injuries. Spontaneous pneumomediastinum in previously healthy infants may be associated with inflicted injuries. Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of an oropharyngeal perforation related to this presentation.

Background and Objective: HIV infection is also a cause of postpartum depression, however, in Vietnam, there has not yet the prevalence of postpartum depression in HIV infected women. The objective is to determine prevalence and related factors of postpartum depression in HIV infected women. Materials and Methods: From November 30th, 2012 to March 30th, 2014, a prospective cohort study is done at Dong Nai and Binh Duong province. The sample includes135 HIV infected women and 405 non infected women (ratio 1/3) who accepted to participate to the research. We used “Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) as a screening test when women hospitalized for delivery and 1 week, 6weeks postpartum. Mother who score EPDS ≥ 13 are likely to be suffering from depression. We exclude women who have EPDS ≥ 13 since just hospitalize. Data are collected by a structural questionaire. Results: At 6 weeks postpartum, prevalence of depression in HIV infected women is 61%, in the HIV non infected women is 8.7% (p < 0.001). There are statistical significant differences (p<0.05) between two groups for some factors: education, profession, income, past history of depression, child’s health, breast feeding. Logistical regression analysis determine these factors are related with depression: late diagnosis of HIV infection, child infected of HIV, feeling guilty of HIV infected and feeling guilty with their family. Multivariate regression analysis showed 4 factors are related with depression: HIV infection, living in the province, child’s health, past history of depression. Conclusion: Prevalence of postpartum depression in HIV infected women is 61.2%; risk of depression of postnatal HIV infected women is 6.4 times the risk of postnatal HIV non infected women, RR=6.4 (95% CI:4.3 – 9.4). Domestic women have lower risk than immigrant women from other province, RR=0.72 (95% CI:0.5 – 0.9). Past history of depression is a risk factor with RR=1.7 (95% CI:1.02 – 0.9. Women whose child is weak or die, RR=1.7(95% CI:0.9 – 3.1). Keywords: Postpartum depression, HIV-positive postpartum women

A postulate of locality permeates through the special and general theories of relativity. First, Lorentz invariance is extended in a pointwise manner to actual, namely, accelerated observers in Minkowski spacetime. This hypothesis of locality is then employed crucially in Einstein’s local principle of equivalence to render observers pointwise inertial in a gravitational field. Field measurements are intrinsically nonlocal, however. To go beyond the locality postulate in Minkowski spacetime, the past history of the accelerated observer must be taken into account in accordance with the Bohr-Rosenfeld principle. The observer in general carries the memory of its past acceleration. The deep connection between inertia and gravitation suggests that gravity could be nonlocal as well and in nonlocal gravity the fading gravitational memory of past events must then be taken into account. Along this line of thought, a classical nonlocal generalization of Einstein’s theory of gravitation has recently been developed. In this nonlocal gravity (NLG) theory, the gravitational field is local, but satisfies a partial integro-differential field equation. A significant observational consequence of this theory is that the nonlocal aspect of gravity appears to simulate dark matter. The implications of NLG are explored in this book for gravitational lensing, gravitational radiation, the gravitational physics of the Solar System and the internal dynamics of nearby galaxies as well as clusters of galaxies. This approach is extended to nonlocal Newtonian cosmology, where the attraction of gravity fades with the expansion of the universe. Thus far only some of the consequences of NLG have been compared with observation.
