Abstract:

Based on the analysis of our own clinical experience, a concept of approaches to planning diagnostic, preventive and curative measures for patients with dental root caries and gingival recession was developed. The aim of the research. To provide a rationale for the developed concept of approaches to planning diagnostic, preventive and curative measures for patients with dental root caries and gingival recession. Objects and methods. Dental examination and treatment of more than 1082 subjects with dental root caries and gingival recession was performed. Registration and objective assessment of clinical condition were carried out based on the analysis of a survey data, clinical examination data and a series of objective parameters. Control examinations were carried out every 3 to 6 months. The effectiveness of diagnostic, preventive and curative measures was assessed according to good, satisfactory and unsatisfactory results achieved. Results and discussion. A complex of methods for diagnosis and treatment of root caries in patients with gingival recession was developed, which made it possible to propose and designate a new classification and treatment method for this group of patients. Conclusion. Feasibility of the developed concept for planning a diagnostic, preventive and curative measures in patients with dental root caries and gingival recession is supported by good therapeutic results achieved in 97.7% of patient in short-term follow-up period, and by consistency of these results in long-term observation period in 96.3% of patients, thus providing a rationale for application of the proposed concept in practical health care.

Abstract:

French television has broadcast health magazines since the 1950s. These magazines generally give more importance to medical expertise and curative medicine. In this article, I will present a programme that stands out from these, Sidamag, which was broadcast weekly in the mid-1990s. Targeting a young public and aiming to inform on preventive measures, Sidamag producers wanted to give space and voice to non-experts. These three goals were only partially achieved. Preventive measures were present in all Sidamag shows however, content analysis showed that only 14% focused on prevention in youth. Furthermore, medical discourse remained dominant although significant space was given to witness testimonials.

Abstract:

Ayurveda is the science of life with aim to protect the health of healthy individuals and to cure the diseases of sufferers. Ayurvedic approaches can give fruitful results in prevention and management of COVID19. WHO has declared the outbreak of COVID 19 to be a public health emergency of international concern on 30th January 2020. Ministry of AYUSH, many Ayurveda institutes, eminent Vaidyas give guidelines to combat COVID 19 in preventive and health promotive way. Ayurveda has mentioned Dincharya, Rutu-charya, Sadvrutta Palana, Ashtanga Yoga to prevent any disease. We in this paper tried to show benefits of these Ayurvedic principles in pandemic disease like COVID-19. COVID-19 disease can be correlated with Vatkapha Pradhana Sannipataja Jwara. Many Ayurvedic drugs mainly Ashwagandha, Yashtimadhu, Guduchi are tried for clinical trials for treatment of COVID-19. Clinical trials of Ayurvedic drugs on quar-antine COVID-19 positive patients shows good results with Ayurvedic stand-alone treatment. We in this paper tried to summarize all the possible Ayurvedic approaches in preventive and curative way, clinical trials through Ayurvedic add on and stand-alone treatments. We lastly concluded with positive note that Ayurveda can be beacon of light to fight COVID-19 Pandemic.

Abstract:

Due to the increasing demand for transport of electrical energy, measures for power flow control, congestion management, and higher utilisation of the existing grid play a decisive role in the transformation of the power system. Hence, enormous efforts must be undertaken using measures of congestion management. Modelling and integration of corresponding measures in optimisation tools to support grid and system operation and therewith reduce the resulting efforts become more important. This is especially true because of the high intermittency and decentralisation of renewable generation leading to increased complexity of the power system, higher loading of assets, and a growing need for control over flexible alternating current transmission systems (FACTS) and high-voltage direct current (HVDC) converters. This work therefore describes the implementation of optimised congestion management in an A Mathematical Programming Language (AMPL)-based nonlinear optimisation problem. AMPL is an effective tool to deal with highly complex problems of optimisation and scheduling. Therefore, the modelling of assets and flexibilities for power flow control in AC/DC systems in combination with an innovative grid operation strategy using predefined curative measures for the optimised use of the existing grid is introduced. The nonlinear mathematical optimisation aims at the optimal cost selection of flexibility measures. The application of the optimisation technique in a combined AC/DC system shows the optimal preventive and curative use of measures in operational congestion management. Simulation results prove that, by using predefined curative measures, the volume of cost-intensive preventive measures can significantly be reduced, especially in association with power flow control.

Abstract:

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the primary cancer of liver. It is the fifth common malignant tumor in men while seventh common in women. Aetiology of HCC is complex; however, it is now believed that sustained chronic liver injury and fibrosis are critically involved in the development of HCC. Prevention and treatment of HCC is far from desirable and prognosis remains poor. Coptis is a Chinese herbal Medicine which has been used for more than thousands years for clearing heats, dampness and toxics. Recently, studies from our group reported the hepatoprotective effect of Coptis and its major active component, berberine, on acute liver injury and berberine was extensively studied for their anti-tumor effect. However, there’s no comprehensive investigation focusing on the preventive and curative potential of berberine on HCC. Hence, here we hypothesized Coptis and berberine exhibits both preventive and curative effects on HCC. The prevention of HCC by berberine and Coptis may rely on their effects on chronic liver damage and fibrosis, and the curative action may depend on their actions on the angiogenesis, tumor growth and invasion of HCC. Both in vitro cell models and in vivo animal system were used in our study and some molecular events were investigated. We found that berberine and Coptis could significantly attenuate the chronic liver injury and fibrosis by restoring the anti-oxidative enzyme SOD activity in CCl4-, bile duct ligation- and alcohol-induced liver injury and fibrosis model. Recovery of SOD activity prevents the hepatocytes from apoptosis by inhibiting the oxidative stress-induced Erk1/2 signaling activation. The prevention of berberine and Coptis on chronic liver injury and fibrosis may contribute to its preventive effect against HCC. Then we found that berberine (as representative to Coptis) could suppress the angiogenesis of HCC, in which berberine does not directly act on the blood vessel formation, but suppress the expression and secretion of pro-angiogenic factors VEGF in HCC cells, and Id-1 inhibition by berberine plays a central role in the suppression of HIF-1α/VEGF and NF-κB pathways. We also found that berberine could induce both apoptotic and autophagic cell death in HCC, and the mitochondria related-caspases activation confers the apoptosis while mTOR inhibition initiates autophagy in berberine treated- cells. We found that berberine could suppress the migration and invasion of HCC cells as well, and Rho-GTPases/ROCK signaling is the particular target in berberine’s anti-invasive action. Finally, to dig out some molecular events involved in berberine’s action on HCC, we studied critically the mechanism underlying berberine’s inhibition on Cyclin D1 in HCC. We found berberine may promote the IKKα-induced Cyclin D1 phosphorylation at T286, and this may initiate the ubiquitination-dependent proteasomal degradation of Cyclin D1 in berberine-treated HCC cells and contribute to berberine’s anti-HCC action. Critical clinical trials and OMICS techniques were planned to further our comprehensive study on Coptis and berberine’s effects on HCC. In all, we found that berberine targets on different stages and molecules and exerts preventive and curative potential against HCC. Our study sheds light on the clinical application of berberine in HCC treatment. published_or_final_version Chinese Medicine Doctoral Doctor of Philosophy

Abstract:

This thesis is based on noise recordings and health evaluations carried out at preschools in the northern part of Sweden. Sound level recordings were made on individuals and by use of stationary devices in dining rooms and play halls. Health evaluations were based on ratings by use of questionnaires and by analyses of cortisol. The average equivalent individual noise exposure was 71 dB(A). The average equivalent noise levels in the dining room and playing halls were 64 dB(A). The hearing loss of the employees was significantly higher for the frequencies tested than in an unexposed control group. Symptoms of tinnitus were reported among 31% of the employees. Noise annoyance was rated as somewhat to very annoying, and the voices of the children were the most annoying noise source. The dB(A) level and fluctuations of the noise exposure were significantly correlated with the number of children per department. Stress and energy output were pronounced among the employees. About 30% of the staff experienced strong burnout syndromes. Mental recovery was low as indicated by noise fatigue and high levels of stress after work. Increased cortisol levels during work were associated with higher number of children present at the department. An essential finding of the thesis was that noise and noise sources may impair the pedagogic work, thereby increasing the work load of employees. It is concluded that noise exposure in the preschool, isolated or in combination with other stressors, plays a fundamental role in the building up of acute as well as long term stress. An intervention study implementing six acoustical and seven organizational measures was tested, aimed to improve the noise situation in the departments. Acoustical measures improved the noise situation as well as the rated noise experiences better than the organizational measures. Avhandlingen baseras på ett samarbete med förskoleverksamheten inom Umeå kommun och har innefattat medverkan från 101 pedagoger i delstudie 1 och 24 pedagoger i en delstudie 2. Studie 1 som redovisas i tre delarbeten, I, II och III, har innefattat personburna och stationära bullermätningar i lekhallar och i matsalar. Påverkan på upplevelser samt hälsoeffekter av ljudmiljön har analyserats via frågeformulär och analyser av kortisol. Kontroll av hörselstatus har genomförts via audiometrisk screening. Studie 1 innefattar analys av bullrets effekter på såväl hörselrelaterad (Delarbete I) som stressrelaterad ohälsa (Delarbete II). Olika typer av åtgärder för att förbättra ljudmiljön och minska den bullerrelaterade ohälsan redovisas i delarbete III. Delarbete IV fokuserar på hur samverkan mellan buller och arbetsorganisation kan påverka den stressrelaterade ohälsan. Genomförda analyser av buller visar på förhållandevis likvärdiga bullerexponeringsnivåer förskolor och avdelningar emellan. Skillnaderna i exponeringsnivåer veckodagar emellan var små, skillnader mellan individer var däremot stora. Påtagliga skillnader i exponeringsnivåer förelåg som väntat under arbetsdagen. I synnerhet den personburna bulleranalysen pekade på en bullerexponering med påtagliga inslag av variation och transienter i exponeringen. Ljudmiljön karaktäriserades av medverkande pedagoger som den enskilt mest besvärande arbetsmiljöfaktorn. Barnens röster och ljud från deras aktiviteter klassificerades som de mest besvärande bullerkällorna. Personalen uppvisade sämre hörtrösklar för samtliga testade frekvenser jämfört med svensk ej bullerexponerad referenspopulation. De försämrade hörtrösklarna var relativt låga och föranledde inte i något fall remittering till hörselklinik. Prevalensen för tinnitus var 31 %, vilket motsvarar en överfrekvens på 15-20 %, jämfört med svenskt normalvärde. Ljudtrötthet efter arbetsdagens slut utgjorde ett uttalat symptom bland pedagogerna liksom försämrad sömnkvalitet och förhöjd sömnighet vid uppvaknande. Analyser av arbetsbelastning baserat på skattning och kortisolmätningar, indikerade höga energiuttag under arbete och inslag av utpräglad stress, och i flera fall utbrändhet. Signifikanta samband mellan upplevd dålig ljudmiljö, maskering av tal, försämrade förutsättningar för det pedagogiska arbetet och därmed ökad ohälsa kunde påvisas. Ljudmiljön, såväl nivåer som fluktuationer påverkades på ett uttalat sätt av antalet barn på avdelningen. Detta utgjorde också den enskilt viktigaste faktorn för att förbättra såväl ljudmiljön som den till ljudmiljön relaterade hälsan. Akustiska åtgärder visade sig genomgående mer framgångsrika för att förbättra ljudklimatet än organisatoriska åtgärder.

Abstract:

Hydraulic steel structures (HSS) are key components of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers infrastructure and are subject to corrosive environments, unpredictable loadings, and extreme conditions. Corrosion can take many forms and can cause costly damage to HSS due to inadequate design of protective measures. There are numerous forms of corrosion that have a negative effect on HSS, as well as material properties that need consideration when designing HSS preventive measures. Understanding corrosion and providing proper preventive measures is crucial for HSS. Proper maintenance and repair of these protection systems also play a significant part in corrosion control of HSS.

Abstract:

AbstractSupportive care during curative treatment of head and neck cancer patients has different scopes: reducing the burden of acute toxicities and limiting the risk of developing late adverse effects; increasing the quality of life of the patients; allowing to perform optimal curative therapy, maintaining treatment dose intensity; preventing higher grade toxicities so to reduce also the costs associated with hospitalization, examinations, visits and use of drugs. At the same time, it is necessary to give uniformity in the supportive care protocols, as these preventive and therapeutic measures may influence the results of oncological treatments and their efficacy should be evaluated in a consistent manner. Several preventive and therapeutic interventions are available, particularly in the context of chemoradiotherapy, where the adverse events are more prominent. An accurate evaluation of the patient and a tailored approach with preventative indications and therapeutic interventions represent key factors. This approach could be easily identified within a “simultaneous care” strategy, as the optimal supportive measures are provided concurrently to the best therapeutic approach since the beginning of the treatment.

Abstract:

One of the fundamental characteristics of modern society is the increasing number of situations where security is compromised. Special significance is given to situations caused by human, natural, or technical-technological actions, collectively referred to as "emergency situations." They are termed "emergencies" due to their sudden, unexpected, and asymmetric negative consequences for people, property, and the environment. The primary characteristic of emergency situations is uncertainty. Uncertainty arises from the lack of sufficient human knowledge about certain phenomena and the genesis of their occurrence. As a result, there is an inability to accurately predict such occurrences or plan protective measures against these dangers. The extent to which certain characteristics of dangers are understood allows humans to act preventively, i.e., to prepare for action in case of danger escalation. The quality of both preventive and curative measures depends on the quality of the decision-making process regarding the type, location, timing, and forces needed for response. Most of the necessary information is obtained by assessing the risks of specific dangers occurring and determining their potential consequences.

Abstract:

Abstract The petroleum industry must satisfy energy demand while safeguarding the environment as global interest in sustainability rises and more zero discharge regimes emerge. Operational discharges from offshore vessels and structures cause untold damage to ecosystems but rarely make news headlines as these acts are mostly perpetuated in the open sea, at night and impacts are less visible due to advection. Oil spill response is complex, expensive and long-lasting. Chemical releases are more difficult to clean and the environment is seldom completely restored, making prevention more desirable. This paper was informed by this scenario and identified gaps in the literature, which mostly reports accidental spills. The nature, sources, causes and effects of operational discharges are highlighted; existing preventive and remediation measures are critically evaluated, and the imperatives of recent regulatory changes for process safety are examined. Live cases are cited from across the globe to assess typical solutions and/or penalties deployed. Relevant local, regional and international regulations are juxtaposed with developments in design, operating procedures and asset integrity measures for selected case studies. Since the ratification of MARPOL 73/78 by certain countries, subsequent decades have seen the continual operation of tankers without segregated ballast tanks, double hulls and other spill prevention design features at major oil loading and unloading hubs across the Gulf of Guinea. Several discharges go unreported and the penalties are barely enforced by regulators. Taking a cue from mature zero discharge regimes such as Norway, discharge prevention measures would be economically viable, address environmental considerations and enhance the corporate image of operators. In a comparative analysis of the value of energy production, social and environmental concerns often indicate great disparity. Creating a good balance on the economic scale will possibly show a different and more realistic perspective on the cost of production. This paper advocates a proactive and preventative, rather than the reactive and curative approach typical of most previous studies. Implementation of recommended engineering and administrative controls are hoped to aid the industry's drives towards zero harm, self-regulation and social license-to-operate in a world apprehensive about oil and gas. They will strengthen regulators in developing economies with heavy dependence on hydrocarbons and poor enforcement, where operators often overlook regulations.

Full text

Abstract:

Abstract Severe Asphaltene deposition is encountered in some wells drilled in newly developed reservoirs of one of Abu Dhabi's giant offshore assets (Field AD), and for the first time, full well plugging with Asphaltene is experienced in the field. While successful curative clean up treatments are regularly made, the relatively high intervention frequency (once every month per well) has impeded the full-scale development of these reservoirs. This study shows how understanding the mechanism of Asphaltene stability/instability in field conditions can unlock the production of under-developed reservoirs (with hundred millions barrels of OIP) by anticipating and considering preventive measures during the design of new wells to limit Asphaltene deposition. In order to prevent the occurrence of Asphaltene deposition from reservoir formation to surface level, a Flow Assurance study was launched by the operating company with close support from the international partner. The objective was to determine the Asphaltene Deposition Phase Envelope (ADE) of the reservoir fluid by measuring onset pressures with Visual (High Pressure ‘HP’ Microscope) and Near Infrared Solid Detection System (SDS) as a function of 2 main variables: Different temperatures to investigate Asphaltene risks over the oil production pathway (at reservoir formation, and from wellbore to surface facilities) & Different Gas compositions to investigate the effect of rich Gas-Cap gas and injected lean gas on the Asphaltene stability. Also, the segregation of the nature of Asphaltenes within the reservoir has been investigated by using the experimental approach named ‘ASCI (Asphaltene Solubility Class Index) experiment’ introduced by the international partner (SPE-164184) to rank Asphaltenes’ solubility with atmospheric dead oil samples taken in different locations. In addition to that, 2 more experiments were performed: Organic – Inorganic test on solid sample to determine the composition and the nature of the solid deposit (whether it is Asphaltene or other type of depositions) & SARA analysis on atmospheric samples. This paper presents the improved work-flow based on the collaboration of the local operator and the international partner, introduces the use of ASCI (Asphaltene Solubility Class Index) experiment and discusses the results of the study and its way-forward.

Abstract:

There is a need for better 3-D model representations of cerebrovasculature particularly on the order of arterioles. Such a model would have many applications and could be a useful tool for those conducting studies involving the brain and its function. The load bearing effects of the vasculature can be better studied with such a model, such as in the case of large strains. In addition, by having a continuous hollow structure, studies involving flow properties can be conducted at a whole scale rather than in a segmented view. Such studies are critical to the advancement of knowledge about the brain and its mechanics which can lead to advancements in preventative and curative care, as well as preventative safety measures. The model developed in this paper could serve as a tool in such studies. A fractal L-system is used to define the branching nature of the model. As such a growing tree structure is developed and characterized by its bifurcation at the end of a vessel segment. The index of bifurcation, α, is a parameter that controls the behavior of the two generated daughter vessels. The model presented here grows from a single parent branch into a bifurcation each of which then bifurcates as many times as specified. The length and diameter of the two daughter vessels will be a function of the respective parent’s length and diameter as well as a value α. The branching angle of the two daughter vessels will be entirely controlled by α. The hollow continuous nature of the model allows for it to be used as a representation of the arteriole structures in the brain. There is also use for such a model in other areas of the body, however, this study will focus on the representation of the cerebrovasculature. The end result is a branching tree model generated in Abaqus which is continuous, hollow and capable of extensive generation with uses in modeling complex cerebrovascular mechanics.

Abstract:

EDF operates a fleet of 58 Pressurized Water Reactors (PWR). The “health” of the Steam Generators (SGs) is an essential element contributing to the overall thermal efficiency of a PWR, and finally to the availability of the unit. Among the health issues that may affect SGs, secondary-side corrosion products transport in PWRs may lead to many problems: various contaminants, both particulates and dissolved species, will unavoidably accumulate and concentrate in the Steam Generator. One consequence is the fouling of the heat transfer and support structure interfaces within the SG on the secondary side, especially the U-tubes (fouling deposits on the outer walls of the U-tubes), and the tube support plates (TSPs) that support the U-tubes. The accumulation of the corrosion products may lead to 3 main safety risks that must be monitored: fluid-elastic instability of tubes in flow-accelerated areas, a reduction in SG water mass inventory and an increase in the risk of water level oscillation. It has also significant performance issues because of the decision to power derate of some EDF PWRs. Thus, a global strategy to monitor the fouling and TSP blockage issues and to schedule preventive and curative actions has been designed and is under deployment by EDF nuclear operator. This dedicated periodic test relies on the recording of the following measurements in stabilized configuration: steam pressure, feedwater flowrate and temperature, primary circuit temperatures, SG blowdown flowrate and SG water level (wide and narrow range). A more precise monitoring of potential TSP blockage situations would be an interesting help to operation and maintenance strategies: deposit build-up in TSP foils could be minimized, preventive chemical cleaning operations could be scheduled and a more efficient fleet wide SG Management Program (SGMP) could be designed in accordance with secondary side deposit issues. Consequently, EDF R&D is experimenting a new method based on modeling dynamics behavior of SGs to assess a spatially distributed estimator of the TSP blockage ratio. This method, based on a 1D physical model of the SG that simulates the complex dynamics of the two-phase flow phenomena inside the SG, consists in computing the wide range water level responses according to various configurations during a particular transient which is particularly sensitive to this phenomenon. The TSP blockage ratio estimator is then obtained by comparing the computed response curves to those measured on-site. This new method has the potential advantages of being fully non-invasive, of providing a quarterly update of the TSPs blockage estimator, and of requiring no additional measurements by processing available plant data. It is also capable of estimating the efficiency of a chemical cleaning after restarting the plant and checking the evolution and kinetics of eventual TSP re-blockage.

Abstract:

As a goal of this investigations was to establish the incidence of the circulation of pathogenic serotipes of the Salmonella spp. bacteria in the poultry enterprises specialized in the growth of broiler chickens and in the poultry factories specialized in production of eggs for current consumption. As material for the research were taken samples from the poultry rooms, and equipment, the faecal samples, shoe, surface washes from the equipment and the eggs for current consumption. The isolation and identification of bacteria from the genus Salmonella spp. were performed to the methodology in force at national level. For serotyping of bacteria from the genus Salmonella spp., were used the monovalent O and H sera. The results of bacteriological investigations of faecal samples collected from broiler chickens, demonstrated that the highest index of bacteria of the genus Salmonella spp. at the age of 1-2 days was 2.09±0.18 log CFU/g , with variations to 2.49±0.19 log CFU/g at the age of 20 days and with an increase up to 3.52±0.20 log UFC/g, at the 40 days age of chickens. Simultaneously with the faecal samples, were taken the samples from chicken corpses. The obtained indices demonstrated that the number of conditionally pathogenic microorganisms in the chickens corpses is higher with 2 log units, com-pared to this index obtained from faecal samples of live chickens. Bacteriological research performed at faecal samples of the flocks of laying hens have demonstrated that the index of bacteria of the genus Salmonella spp. at the age of hens of 145-165 days had relatively low variations (0.65±0.16 log CFU/g). At the beginning of the laying period (290-310 days) this index had a parameteres of 0,71±0,08 log CFU/g, but of the end of the laying period (450-470 days), the index had a double increasing and constituted 1.66±0.24* log CFU/g. The mentioned indexes demonstrated that the veterinary sanitary and preventive curative measures undertaken at the poultry units do not fully prevent the risks of contamination with bacteria of the genus Salmonella spp. and still remain an important problem for the health of poultry flocks. Bacteriological investigations confirmed that the index of Salmonella spp. bacteria in broiler flocks constituted 8.6%, with the predominance of serotype Salmonella pullorum gallinarum, and in laying hen flocks this index constituted 4.2%, with the predominance of Salmonella pullorum gallinarum and Salmonella typhimurium serotypes, which presents a risk of contamination both for poultry flocks and for human health.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Background: The government’s efforts to improve public health level are by providing excellent health service facilities, including promotion, preventive, curative, and rehabilitative. The outcome of quality health service can be measured by patient perception and satisfaction. This study aimed to examine factors affecting the perceived quality of service and patient satisfaction on inpatient care of Nabire Hospital, Papua, Indonesia. Subjects and Method: A cross-sectional study was carried out at Nabire regional hospital, Papua, Indonesia, from March to Mey 2020. A sample of 207 inpatients was selected by stratified random sampling. The dependent variable was patient satisfaction. The independent variables were age, income, and length of stay type class health insurance, working, and patient perception toward doctor, nurse, and inpatients facilities. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multiple logistic regression. Results: Inpatients satisfaction decreased with age ≥50 years (OR= 0.72; 95% CI= 0.24 to 2.65; p= 0.720), income ≥Papua minimum wage (OR= 0.77; 95% CI= 0.22 to 2.73; p= 0.685), and length of stay ≥7 days (OR= 0.13; 95% CI= 0.03 to 0.53; p= 0.004). Inpatients satisfaction increased with class 2 and 3 (OR= 1.15; 95% CI= 0.43 to 3.07; p= 0.773), non national health insurance (OR= 1.21; 95% CI= 0.46 to 3.23; p= 0.700), working (OR= 2.13; 95% CI= 0.58 to 7.85; p= 0.258), good patient perception toward doctor (OR= 3.03; 95% CI= 1.15 to 7.99; p<0.001), good persepsi patient perception toward nurse (OR= 4.04; 95% CI= 1.15 to 14.17; p<0.001), and patient perception toward inpatients facilities (OR= 26.8; 95% CI= 11.0 to 65.32; p<0.001). Conclusion: Inpatients satisfaction decreases with age ≥50 years, income ≥Papua minimum wage, and length of stay ≥7 days. Inpatients satisfaction increases with class 2 and 3, non national health insurance, working, good patient perception toward doctor, good persepsi patient perception toward nurse, and patient perception toward inpatients facilities.

Abstract:

This paper probes the relationship between sources of Covid-19 information and adherence to preventive measures in Nigeria, a context characterised by fake news, hate speech, and other forms of disinformation. While this relationship in Nigeria is relatively well studied, little discrete analytical attention has been given to the actor and platform components of information sources. Yet, it is important to consider the platforms people use when seeking Covid-19 information, the actors they trust to provide reliable information, and their compliance with preventive measures. This study used data from a 1,000-household telephone survey conducted in Lagos, Nigeria to understand the relationship between information platforms and actors and adherence to Covid-19 preventive measures.

Abstract:

This brief sets out key considerations for risk communications and community engagement (RCCE) to promote adherence to COVID-19 preventive measures in greater Kampala, Uganda. It looks at adherence to COVID-19 preventive measures, assesses the challenges to their adoption and outlines key considerations for partners working in RCCE and the wider COVID-19 emergency response. The brief responds to concern (as of March 2022) about COVID-19 transmission in informal urban areas in Uganda due to their high population density, limited sanitary infrastructure, and reported low uptake of vaccination. Ensuring effective communication and engagement with a series of preventative measures is essential in limiting the spread of COVID-19. The Ministry of Health and response partners have been proactive, however interventions and guidance for COVID-19 have taken limited account of social science research about the perceptions and practices related to COVID-19 regulations. This brief aims to address this gap so these data may be used to inform more effective and practicable guidance for vulnerable groups. This brief draws primarily on an analysis of existing scientific and grey literature. Additional primary data was collected through consultation with six social science and RCCE experts who focus on this geographical area. The brief was requested by UNICEF Uganda in consultation with the Uganda Ministry of Health (MoH) RCCE subcommittee and the RCCE technical working group for the Eastern and South Africa region (ESAR). It was developed for SSHAP by Theresa Jones (Anthrologica) and supported by Elizabeth Storer (London School of Economics), with contributions and reviews by colleagues at Anthrologica, the Institute of Development Studies (IDS), UNICEF ESARO and Uganda, Makerere University, the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM), Dreamline Products and the IFRC.

Abstract:

We examine the efficiency gains in health systems generated after the national roll out of basic healthcare in El Salvador between 2010 and 2013. Using data from over 120 million consultations and five million hospitalizations, we demonstrate that the expansion of community health teams, comprising less-specialized health workers, increases preventive care and decreases curative care and preventable hospitalizations. We also estimate coverage improvements for previously unattended chronic conditions amenable to effective primary care. These results suggest that decentralization of tasks to less-specialized health workers improves efficiency, maintaining quality of care.

This paper explores how different levels of knowledge correlate with desirable preventive and curative practices against malaria in Honduras. The paper additionally analyzes information externalities associated with non-specific malaria health services, communicational campaigns and organized community networks. Using the 2004 ENSEMAH survey, the analysis tests for statistical differences in the means of behavioral variables and an index of household malaria knowledge, finding that the adoption of desirable prevention and treatment behaviors correlates with proficient levels of knowledge. Differences in behavior across groups with distinctive levels of proficiency were found statistically significant. Also, while information externalities exist, they nonetheless do not deliver adequate levels of knowledge proficiency to induce desirable anti-malaria behavior.
