Effect of engineering upon task nursing jobs findings

The percentage of open globe injuries to the total number of emergency cases presented during the lockdown was significantly higher than the percentage of open globe injuries to the total number of emergency cases presented during the corresponding period in the previous year (p=0.0005). We believe the lockdown inside homes has resulted in higher risk of trauma and rupture globe in this group of patients.The catenin beta-1 (CTNNB1) gene, encoding a sub-unit of the cadherin/catenin protein complex that is involved in the Wnt signalling pathway important for proper interneuron development, is considered to be causative for the rare autosomal dominant mental retardation syndrome, formerly called MRD19 but later renamed neurodevelopmental disorder with spastic diplegia and visual defects (NEDSDV). Its main characteristics are moderate to severe intellectual disability (ID), disruptive autistic behaviours, microcephaly, absent or limited speech, facial dysmorphisms, peripheral hypertonia/spasticity, motor delay and visual defects. So far, 35 patients have been reported with a de novo loss-of-function variant in CTNNB1. In two other patients, a deletion comprising the full gene was found. HIF-1 activation Four out of the 37 patients were of adult age (range 27-51 years), while the majority was infant or adolescent (range 0-20 years). Here, a 32-year-old severely intellectually disabled female patient is described in whom exome sequencing disclosed a de novo heterozygous splice site variant in the CTNNB1 gene [Chr3(GRCh37) g.41267064G>T; NM_001904.3 23. c.734+1G>T; r. spl?]. Somatic investigation disclosed significant microcephaly and minor facial dysmorphisms. Neurological examination demonstrated severe kyphoscoliosis, distal spastic tetraparesis, especially of the legs with increased tendon reflexes and bilateral Babinski sign, resulting in severely impaired walking capability with a broad-based gait. Apart from strabismus, no ophthalmological abnormalities were found. Here, the reported variant in the CTNNB1 gene was not published earlier nor is included in the international databases. This specific variant is considered to be causative for the severe ID, autism and the somato-neurological phenotype of the patient and corresponds with a diagnosis of NEDSDV.
To report the natural history of a large bubble of perfluorocarbon liquid (PFCL) in a parafoveal subretinal position which was monitored using optical coherence tomography (OCT) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA). The bubble of PFCL was removed when it migrated to the subfoveal position; outcome after removal is also reported.
A 62-year-old male, after repair of a giant retinal tear (GRT) detachment, regained Snellen acuity of 6/18 from preoperative vision of CF at 1 meter. A large bubble of subretinal PFCL was in the superior parafoveal area. For 18 months, the PFCL bubble was monitored using OCT and OCTA until it migrated into the subfoveal position after 22 months, coinciding with a decrease in vision to 6/36. Surgical removal of subfoveal PFCL was performed. This involved detachment of the foveomacular, epiretinal membrane (ERM) peel (complicated by iatrogenic macular hole (MH) formation), intravitreal injection of PFCL to displace subretinal PFCL to the periphery, creation of an inver edema is present. Therefore, removal of the PFCL can be delayed until a convenient time for surgeon and patient. A large bubble of parafoveal PFCL ought to be removed before migrating to a subfoveal position and vision loss, since its removal will reduce the risk of outer retina loss.
The care given for the first hours, days, and weeks after childbirth is life-threatening. So far, this period receives less attention from health-care providers than the care given to pregnancy and delivery. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and associated factors of early postnatal care service use among mothers who had given birth in the last 12 months in Adigrat Town, Tigray, Ethiopia.
A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted from March to April 2018 among 481mothers who had given birth in the last 12 months. A systematic random sampling technique was used to select study participants. A pre-tested and structured questionnaire was used to collect the data. Data analysis was computed using SPSS version 20. An adjusted odds ratio with a 95% confidence interval and p-value less than 0.05 was used to determine the level of significance.
The proportion of early postnatal care service utilization was 34.3% (95% CI 29.9%-38.5%). Mothers' use of early postnatal care service was predicomplication, distance, postnatal home visit, number of ANC visits, awareness on early postnatal care use, age, and income.
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major public health problem globally. Mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of HBV is high in endemic countries; however, little is known about pregnant women`s knowledge and attitudes regarding MTCT and prevention methods in Ethiopia. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the knowledge, attitude and associated factors of pregnant women towards MTCT of HBV and its prevention in three tertiary hospitals in the Amhara region, northwestern Ethiopia.
A cross-sectional study was conducted from May 1, 2018 to September 30, 2019. A total of 1121 pregnant women participated in the study. A structured questionnaire was used to collect the sociodemographic, knowledge, and attitudes of pregnant women towards MTCT of HBV and its prevention. Data were analyzed using SPPS version 20.
-test, multivariate logistic regression, Spearman correlation, and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used for data analysis.
The majority of 89.6%; 95% CI (87.9-91.3%) pregnant women had poor know lack of knowledge in pregnant women for the prevention and control of MTCT of HBV. This calls for the Amhara Health Bureau and Ministry of Health to promote health education programs for pregnant women attending antenatal care on MTCT of HBV and its prevention methods to improve knowledge and attitudes.
The knowledge of pregnant women was found to be poor and their attitude was also limited to MTCT of HBV infection and its prevention. Educational status and vaccination history were predictors of knowledge and attitude, but income and residence only to knowledge and attitude, respectively. This study revealed a lack of knowledge in pregnant women for the prevention and control of MTCT of HBV. This calls for the Amhara Health Bureau and Ministry of Health to promote health education programs for pregnant women attending antenatal care on MTCT of HBV and its prevention methods to improve knowledge and attitudes.
