Abstract

To diagnose patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD) based on Cyberball social exclusion task and resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) using machine learning approach. In the current study, the researchers used fMRI images to examine social brain function and learning in BPD. Thirty-six participants completed the 'Cyberball' task. Data questionnaire and features extracted from fMRI data were used to diagnose BPD. In this study, three statistical models were used to diagnosing BPD, and the best model was introduced based on appropriate criteria. Also, important features are identified by the models. Totally, 20 people had BPD and 16 were healthy. 83.3% were women and 16.7% men. Logistic Lasso Regression (LLR) was the best model for the diagnosis of patients with BPD. Physical abuse, sexual abuse and the use of antidepressants and antipsychotic drugs were selected as important features by the models. Due to the structure of the machine learning models used in the study, there is no need to feature selection stage and important features can be identified in the models. Also, the diagnosis of BPD has been done with high accuracy, so that clinical physicians can diagnose BPD with all available information, including questionnaire information and fMRI data.

Abstract

Background Some types of beta-human papillomavirus (β-HPV) may be one of the probable causes of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in transplant recipients. β-HPVs are linked to SCC in the literature with small number of subjects. Aim Herein, the first meta-analysis was carried out on the association between β-HPVs and cutaneous SCC in immunosuppressed patients. Methods A systematic search was carried out in the PubMed and Scopus databases up to December 2018. The odds ratio (OR) were calculated by RevMan 5.3 software and the event rate (ER) by Comprehensive Meta-Analysis 2.0 software with a 95% confidence interval (CI). Results A total of 1250 records were identified through the two databases, but at last eleven studies were included in the meta-analysis that they were published from 1989 to 2018. The results showed a significantly high prevalence of β-HPVs in cutaneous SCC patients (ER = 69.1%; 95%CI: 58.7%, 77.8%). In addition, the prevalence of overall β-HPVs and β-HPVs of 5, 8, 9, 17, 49, 75, and 76 in immunosuppressed cutaneous SCC patients was significantly higher compared with controls. Conclusions The findings of the present meta-analysis support the hypothesis that β-HPV may play a role in cutaneous SCC development in immunosuppressed individuals.

Early diagnosis of this disease can prevent the serious complications and mismanagements. This study aimed to evaluate the hematological parameters with predictive value for the diagnosis of brucellosis.Methods: In this prospective case–control study which was done during 2015– 2017 in Imam Reza Hospital, Kermanshah Province, west Iran, 100 patients with a confirmed diagnosis of brucellosis (brucellosis group) and 100 healthy individuals (control group) were studied. The hematological parameters, including hemoglobin (Hb), red blood cell (RBC), white blood cell (WBC) count, lymphocyte count, neutrophil count, platelet count (PLTs), mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and C-reactive protein (CRP) of both groups were recorded. The data were statistically compared between the brucellosis and the control groups.Results: The mean age of patients and healthy groups was 44.04 ± 23.11 and 37.92 ± 24.80, respectively (P = 0.062). The WBC, CRP and neutrophil counts were significantly higher in the brucellosis group (P < 0.05). Based on the receiveroperating characteristic (ROC) analysis, the sensitivity and specificity were 54% and 66% for the WBC, 45% and 71% for the neutrophil and 65% and 72% for the CRP, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of Hb, RBC, WBC, lymphocyte and platelet count, MPV, PDW and ESR (P > 0.05).Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that WBC, CRP and neutrophil count can be used as valuable markers in the preliminary diagnosis of brucellosis. However, further researches are required to standardize these parameters for various forms of brucellosis.Keywords: brucellosis, diagnosis, blood cell count, blood parameters

Abstract

Artículo con numerosos autores, sólo se mencionan el primero, los de la UAM y grupo colectivo, A double burden of malnutrition occurs when individuals, household members or communities experience both undernutrition and overweight. Here, we show geospatial estimates of overweight and wasting prevalence among children under 5 years of age in 105 low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) from 2000 to 2017 and aggregate these to policy-relevant administrative units. Wasting decreased overall across LMICs between 2000 and 2017, from 8.4% (62.3 (55.1–70.8) million) to 6.4% (58.3 (47.6–70.7) million), but is predicted to remain above the World Health Organization’s Global Nutrition Target of, This work was primarily supported by grant OPP1132415 from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation awarded to S.I.H.

Abstract

In order to induce sedation during cataract surgery, various medications with different side effects are used in separation or in combination. Dexmedetomidine has no effect on the respiratory system, but being dependent on dosage, it may cause cardiovascular disorders. The present study aims to compare the hemodynamic and sedative effects of dexmedetomidine and the combination of sufentanil-midazolam on patients undergoing cataract surgery. In a randomized clinical trial study, 60 patients were randomly divided into two dexmedetomidine and sufentanil-midazolam groups. In sufentanil-midazolam group, dexmedetomidine (DEX infusion at 0.5 µg/kg for 10 minutes, then adjusted to 0.2 µg/kg/h) was prescribed. In the sufentanil-midazolam group, sufentanil (0.1 µg/kg for 5 minutes) and midazolam (0.2 µg/kg) were injected five minutes before the operation. Hemodynamic variables (Systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, heart rate), complications (nausea, vomiting, hypoxia), sedation level, and pain intensity were recorded (at the beginning of the study, 5, 10 minutes after anesthesia, at the start of surgery, 5, 10, 15 minutes after the surgery) as well as patient's satisfaction, surgeon's satisfaction, and complications. Results suggest that apart from gender, other primary characteristics of patients, including age, history of blood pressure, diabetes history, ASA score, mean of systolic, diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, and SPO2 levels, were similar in both groups (P>0.05). Systolic blood pressure patients receiving dexmedetomidine declined significantly more than that of patients receiving sufentanil-midazolam (P>0.5). Diastolic blood pressure suddenly fell 5 minutes after the infusion of sufentanil-midazolam (P>0.05), but then a relative increase and finally a relative decrease occurred, while diastolic blood pressure in patients receiving dexmedetomidine decreased steadily. The mean heart rate in patients receiving dexmedetomidine and sufentanil-midazolam declined gently (P>0.05). SPO2 was reduced significantly in the sufentanil-midazolam group (P<0.05). Drugs used in both groups reduced pain intensity equally (P>0.05). From the beginning of the study, dexmedetomidine produced a relatively stable sedation level (score 2) based on Ramsay's criteria, while the combination of sufentanil-midazolam-medications causes deeper sedation (score 3) in patients (P<0.05). Despite this fact, 23.33% of the patient receiving sufentanilmidazolam could have movements during the surgery, which was 6.66% higher in patients receiving dexmedetomidine (P=0.071). The satisfaction of patients receiving dexmedetomidine was significantly higher (P=0.044), while the surgeon's satisfaction was almost identical in both anesthesia procedures (P=0.94). In the end, the results of the present study showed that although dexmedetomidine is associated with few respiratory problems and higher satisfaction of patients, it decreases blood pressure and heart rate progressively. However, it seems that this medicine is more effective than a combination of midazolam-sufentanil because of more patient satisfaction, lack of hypoxia, fewer complications, and more suitable immobility.

Abstract

Introduction: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, inflammatory, peripheral polyarthritis associated with unclear etiology. RA often leads to joint deformity and cartilage destruction in the patients. The present study aimed to assess the effect of Islamic fasting on the severity of RA. Methods: This observational study was conducted on 28 patients with RA, who were randomly divided into two groups. The study was initiated two weeks before Ramadan and continued until one month after Ramadan in 2015. One group followed Islamic fasting during Ramadan, and the other group did not fast. The study groups were visited twice; the first visit was before Ramadan, and the second visit was after Ramadan. Data were recorded on the number of tender and swollen joints, disease activity score (DAS-28), visual analog scale (VAS) of the patients, VAS of the physicians, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and C-reactive protein (CRP). Results: The mean number of the tender joints decreased from 1.36±1.94 to 0.42±0.85 (P=0.02), and the mean number of the swollen joints decreased from 0.79±1.05 to 0.07±0.26 in the fasting group (P=0.02). In addition, DAS-28 and VAS of the physicians reduced significantly in the fasting group only, while the VAS score of the patients showed no significant reduction in the study groups. The mean DAS-28 decreased from 2.74±1.06 to 2.18±0.64 in the fasting group (P=0.003). Moreover, the mean DAS-28 decreased from 2.71±0.8 to 2.27±1.01 in the non-fasting group (P=0.24). Conclusion: According to the results, Islamic fasting during the holy month of Ramadan could effectively decrease the severity of RA. However, further evidence is required to recommend this dietary intervention for patients with RA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Introduction: Negligence of proper time and poor performance of resuscitation team can lead to more mortality and negative consequences of cardiac arrest, as well as less survival. This study was conducted with objective of determining the arrival time of physician and resuscitation team to survive the victims of cardiopulmonary arrest. Materials and methods: In this prospective and descriptive-analytic study, the resuscitation performance and the arrival time of resuscitation team in 143 inpatients who had been diagnosed with witnessed cardiopulmonary arrest were examined using a researcher-made checklist. Data analysis was performed using parametric and non-parametric statistical tests and SPSS. Results: Initial survival rate was 26.6%. In general, the mean time of physician's presence after the code announcement in minutes and seconds was 02:31 ± 01:22. It was also 02:24 ± 01:15 in successful cases and 02:34 ± 01:25 in unsuccessful cases. Independent t-test did not show a significant difference between the physician's presence time and the rate of initial successful resuscitation (p = 0.504). The time of first shock after observing ventricular fibrillation/tachycardia (in minutes and seconds) was 01:30 ± 00:47. According to independent t-test, the aforementioned time was less than the mean time (02:31 ± 01:22) of physician's presence (p < 0.001). Conclusions: In this study, the initial survival rate in comparison to other regions in the country was almost more favorable and it was similar to global norms. In this study, the starting time of resuscitation was within the acceptable range. There was no relationship between the presence of physician and the initial survival rate of patients, as well as the use of defibrillator (by physician compared to other team members) and intubation with the initial survival rate. This could indicate the adequate performance of resuscitation team in the absence of physician on the condition of having sufficient knowledge and skill. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background: The aim of this study was to compare the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) knowledge of hospital nurses and emergency medical personnel in Kermanshah, Iran. Materials and Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on 330 hospital nurses and 159 emergency medical personnel working in educational hospitals and emergency medical centers in Kermanshah. Data were collected using a validated and reliable (r = 0.74) researcher-made questionnaire consisting of a demographic characteristics questionnaire and the 2010 CPR knowledge questionnaire. Results: Based on the most recent CPR guidelines, the knowledge of 19.5%, 78.6%, and 1.9% of the emergency medical staff was excellent, good, and moderate, respectively. None of the participants had poor knowledge. In addition, the knowledge of 20.2%, 65.4%, 14%, and 0.4% of the nurses in this study was excellent, good, moderate, and poor, respectively. There was no significant difference in CPR knowledge between hospital nurses and emergency medical staff. Moreover, no significant association was found between CPR knowledge and gender, age, work experience, field of study, previous occupation, and advanced resuscitation courses. However, CPR knowledge of individuals with training in basic CPR courses was higher than participants without training in these courses (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Based on the findings of this study, CPR knowledge among Iranian nurses and emergency medical personnel was in an acceptable range. Nevertheless, it is strongly recommended that nurses and emergency staff receive training according to the most recent CPR guidelines. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Silybum marianum, is known to have anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective and anticarciogenic effects. The aim of this study was to compare effects of Silymarin, Rapamycin and FK506 on proliferation and apoptosis of human T cells stimulated with Con A. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were stimulated with concavalin A (Con A) (5µg/mL) and then treated with different inhibitors (silymarin, rapamycin and FK506) in various concentrations (5 days). Cells were examined using carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester (CFSE) assay for proliferation. Then cell apoptosis was analyzed by FITC annexin V/PI staining and flow cytometry. The effects of drugs on the activation of poly ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) pathway in PBMCs stimulated with Con A and treated with IC50 dose of drugs for 5 days were evaluated using the PathScan cleaved PARP sandwich ELISA kit. The results indicated that silymarin inhibited T cell proliferation. In addition, our results pointed out that 100 μM and 200 μM of silymarin significantly have more inhibitory effect on T cells proliferation than FK506 and rapamycin. None of these drugs at IC50 concentration had affected the level of cleaved PARP. Overall, with superior efficacy and lesser toxicity in comparison with other immunosuppressive drugs, silymarin could be a suitable choice of therapy for certain diseases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
