Abstract : In Morocco, cancer is the second leading cause of death with (13.4%) behind circulatory diseases and heart disease. This rate can be reduced by preventive measures, good diagnosis and effective treatment, and by a very good knowledge of the phenomenon. A retrospective descriptive and analytical study of in-hospital mortality at the Marrakech Oncology Center was conducted by exploiting the records of cancer decedents between January 2014 and December 2018. The collection involved socio-demographic, economic and geographic variables. The evaluation of cancer mortality was estimated by calculating crude mortality rates, case fatality rates, main fatal cancers, as well as studying the survival of hospitalized cancer patients. The data were analyzed on SPSS version 24. It was based on descriptive and analytical statistics The survival study was considered using the Kaplan and Meir survival study. Crude cancer mortality rate estimated at 1.29 per 100,000 populations, men accounted for 53% (p<0.0001). The mean age was 52.86 years SD, 14.97 (p<0.0001), the majority of deaths were married (83%) (P=0.000), urban (74%), majority from the city of Marrakech 61% (p<0.0001), without professions (65%) and they were poor and vulnerable (90%). Women died of breast cancer (39%), colorectal cancer (12%), cervical cancer and stomach cancer (6%) respectively. Men died from lung (25%), stomach (9%), colorectal (8%) and bronchial (6%) cancer. The case fatality rate for cancer patients at the hospital level was 1.56%. For the four main causes of death for all sexes, 50% of colorectal cancer patients survived less than 9 months. 50 % of stomach cancer patients survived less than three months. Also 50% of breast and lung cancer patients of all sexes survived less than five months each. The data on deaths and survival are very significant. These results should encourage our health care system to pay more attention to notification systems and effective prevention measures, in particular, tobacco control, promotion of healthy eating habits, regular physical activity, and screening for breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer..

Abstract : University students face numerous types of academic stress like tests, theoretical and practical coursework, research activities and various aspects of professional practice. Since stress levels highly affect ANS function, the aim of the present study was to assess the autonomic nervous system function among GMU students by using autonomic reflex tests such as cold pressor test, hand grip test and heart rate variability. From the results, there was a significant association between gender and HRV as well as gender and diastolic blood pressure for isometric hand grip test. For HRV test, a positive correlation between gender and HRV was found where females had a median average score of 74 while males had an average of 80. Furthermore, the total median average of HRV among the participants was 78 which suggests overall that the participants were healthy and in good condition. As for physical activity, smoking and age all had no correlation with HRV since there was no significant association with any. The HR mean value was (91.59±17.605) beats/min and following CPT it increased to (94.24±16.933). The mean value for SBP at resting was (123.53±16.200) and following CPT it increased to (125.33±18.001). The resting DBP mean was (79.32) and following CPT it increased to (82.59). In Isometric handgrip test, there was no significant association between SBP changes and gender/physical activity/smoking. Only 17 students showed hyperactivity based on SBP changes, 9 were males and 8 females. We found a significant association between DBP changes in IHGT and gender only. The results in the study showed that the majority of the students are healthy. ANS testing must be done on students for early detection of dysautonomia..

Abstract :

Food safety remains of concern to health workers involved in the recognition, diagnosis and surveillance of foodborne illnesses, and to the food handlers, as it remains to be a major source of morbidity and mortality. Risk prevention associated with foodborne illnesses requires knowledge and awareness regarding personal and food hygiene, and safe practices concerning food handling, preparation and storage. This study aims to evaluate the knowledge and practices among health workers and food handlers, to gain a better understanding of the gaps in knowledge and practice that might result in foodborne illnesses. This cross-sectional study included 100 participants Public Health Specialists and health workers in Food Control Section, Communicable Disease Control Unit, and Health Promotion Specialists working in Ministry of Health, and 100 food handlers. Information concerning demographic data, food safety knowledge and practice were collected using a self-administered questionnaire. 89 health workers had completed the questionnaire, versus 79 from the food handlers’ group. Both health workers and food handlers surveyed, chose correct responses concerning the food microbiology and cross contamination with a percentage ranging from 78.5% to 98.9%. Similar results were found in both groups in relation to food contamination, hygiene, and food handling questions. Both surveyed groups reported high scores concerning personal cleaning and hygiene practices as well as safe food handling practices. The results showed a great level of foodborne disease knowledge among surveyed health workers and food handlers. In addition, the majority of the respondents adhere to appropriate food handling practices.

Abstract : Short sleep duration could be a factor of the occurrence of obesity and insulin resistance. Insulin resistance might cause various metabolic problems. Several previous studies have conveyed dissimilar results. The present study aimed to analyze the relationship between sleep duration and insulin resistance in obese adolescents with metabolic syndrome. This study used cross-sectional research design with 124 obese adolescents with metabolic syndrome aged 13-18 years in Surabaya and Sidoarjo as the research subjects. Anthropometry (e.g. weight, height, and waist circumference), blood pressure, and blood tests (e.g. HDL cholesterol, triglyceride, and fasting blood glucose levels) were conducted to determine obesity according to CDC 2000 and metabolic syndrome according to International Diabetes Federation 2007. Insulin resistance was assessed by using HOMA-IR. Sleep duration was determined based on direct interviews with the research subjects. The obtained data were analyzed using Spearman correlation test, Chi-Square, Mann-Whitney, and T-test (significant at p <0.05). The subjects were dominated by male adolescents (67.7%). There was a meaningful relationship between age and sleep duration (p = 0.035). Subjects were divided into two age groups namely those aged 13-15 years and 16- 18 years. The results showed that sleep duration and HOMA-IR values as a marker of insulin resistance had a significant negative correlation (rs=-0.605; p <0.001). Sleep duration has a robust negative correlation with the HOMA-IR value, which is a parameter of insulin resistance..

Abstract : The objective of this study was to determine phage types, biotypes and antimicrobial resistance patterns and their correlation of Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi and Salmonella enterica serotype paratyphi isolated from blood, so that appropriate strategies can be adopted in the management of enteric fever. A total of 22 S. enterica serotype Typhi isolates from 300 blood samples from BacT alert system were send for phage typing and biotyping to Lady Harding Medical College New Delhi and also tested for their antimicrobial susceptibility profile. Out of 22 strains 2 strains were not revived, so we got report of only 20 strains The commonest phage type was E1 10(50%), some strains were Deg vi (degraded Vi) strains 5(25%), and Vi negative strains 1(0.05%). UVS (Untypable vi strains) 2(10%) and two strains were Phage type 2(10%) A single phage type and biotype were prevalent among the Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi and Salmonella enterica setotype paratyphi isolates studied from Aurangabad, Maharashtra..
