Title : The Intention to Get Covid-19 Vaccine among the General Population in Saudi Arabia: Application of the Theory of Planned Behaviour.
Abstract : The hopes to contain the COVID-19 pandemic, which has been affecting the world for a year, have increased with the development of vaccines. However, wide coverage is needed to successfully control the disease. This study used the theory of planned behaviour to assess the intention and the factors influencing getting COVID-19 vaccine in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Data were collected using an online questionnaire. The results revealed that half the study participants (51.5%) intended to vaccinate. However, a positive attitude (72%) and high perceived behavioural control (86.9%) were noted among the study participants. The theory of planned behaviour successfully predicted the participants’ intention to vaccinate. Nevertheless, perceived behavioural control was found to be a negative predictor. This study recommends normalizing the vaccine and maintaining educational campaigns to improve attitudes and consequently intention and behaviour..

Title : Radiographic Determination of Cardiothoracic Ratio and Cardiac Size in the Ijaw Ethnic Group of Nigeria.
Abstract :

This study determined cardiac sizes, with the aid of chest radiographs, using the mean values of the CTR among adult Ijaws in Nigeria. Chest radiographs of 200 adult Ijaws were obtained and placed on a radiological illuminator box to reflect proper views of the radiographs, as cardiac and thoracic diameter values were collected. Data were analysed using SPSS for total number determination, mean, range, standard deviation and t-test value. The results recorded as follows; mean cardiac diameter for males is 13.44±1.10cm; that for female is 12.52±1.20cm and 12.98±1.19cm was recorded for both gender. For mean thoracic diameter, male value is 29.76 ± 1.85cm, that of female is 26.77±1.84cm and 28.26±2.37cm was recorded for both gender. Also the mean CTR (cardio-thoracic ratio) value was also recorded; the value for male is 45.22±3.19, that for female is 46.88±3.87 and 46.05±3.63 was recorded for both gender. Statistical analysis using student t-test showed that male adult Ijaws had higher value (p<0.05) in almost all the parameters except in CTR value, whereas females have higher CTR value (p<0.05). Findings of the index study (46.05 CTR values) provides a reference point for future studies on other Nigerian ethnic groups, which will in turn enhance better clinical interpretations necessary for diagnosing cardiovascular disorders.

Title : Attitude and Knowledge of Yemeni Dental Practitioners towards Management of Acute Apical Periodontitis
Abstract : This study address the current knowledge and attitude of Yemeni dental practitioners accomplished during the root canal procedure and subsequent therapy in the treatment of acute apical periodontitis of the tooth. This cross-sectional study was conducted on 156 randomly selected general practitioners who worked in dental clinics in Sana’a city, Yemen. The data produced by the study was analyzed using the Chi-squared test with a significance level set at p < 0.05, which yielded a reasonable determination as to whether or not there was a significant relationship between the study’s core variables. Antibiotics were prescribed by 93.58% and anesthesia administration by 78.2% of the general practitioner participants in the study. The protocol with the highest rate in the study was multiple irrigation, at 69.23% of participants; while rubber dam usage was the lowest: only 0.64% of the participants employed this technology compared to other isolation methods. Overall, 57.05% of practitioners reported manipulating both hand and rotary means in cleaning and shaping the root canal system; 48.71% used a calcium hydroxide intracanal medicament; 44.23% a mixture of both calcium hydroxide and chlorhexidine; and 39.1% sodium hypochlorite, hydrogen peroxide, and chlorhexidine, significance differences were found between the participants in all clinical procedures (p < 0.05) except in isolation method and selection of intracanal irrigants (p > 0.05). According to the findings of this study, neither the type of work nor the experience period influenced the clinical attitude and/or approach of dentists in endodontic therapy. The mechanical method selection for root canal system preparation meanwhile, showed variation..

Title : An Outcome of Anterior Minimal Invasive Surgery Technique in Total Hip Arthroplasty
Abstract : The anterior minimal invasive surgery (AMIS) technique in total hip arthroplasty (THA) have reported success with early recovery with this approach. Our study is to report the clinical and functional outcomes for AMIS technique in THA. A prospective cohort study was performed on a group of 18 hips from 15 patients who underwent THA with AMIS from February 2015 to May 2020 with at least of two-year follow-up post- surgery. The clinical and functional outcomes were measured with Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Oxford Hip Score (OHS), Harris Hip Scores (HHS), intraoperative blood loss, surgical drain, duration of surgery and duration of hospital stay. The average for pre-operative VAS was 7.5 (SD: 1.09), 6 months’ post-surgery was 0.56 (SD: 1.04) and 2 years’ post-surgery, 0.27 (SD: 0.59). The average of OHS pre-surgery was 20.33 (SD: 8.75), 6 months’ post-surgery was 43.61 (SD: 6.92) and 2 years’ post-surgery, 43.87 (SD:7.23). The average of HHS pre-surgery was 45.0 (SD: 18.23), 6 months’ post-surgery was 90.28 (SD: 18.54) and 2 years’ post- surgery, 90.67 (SD: 20.78). The perioperative parameters measured were average of intraoperative blood loss of 216.7ml (SD: 45.37), average of 160.8ml (SD: 133.55) blood loss in surgical drain, average duration of surgery was 126.1 minutes (SD: 16.49) and mean duration of hospitalization was 5.6 days (SD: 2.23). THA with AMIS gives good clinical and functional outcomes with low complication therefore it is a strong consideration for total hip arthroplasty..

Title : Prevalence and risk factors for diabetic complications: 8-year retrospective report from a single regional diabetes center to the eastern region of Morocco
Abstract : The prevalence of diabetes in Morocco is especially high in the eastern region and has been increasing in recent years, hence the need for an in-depth study of this population. Our objective is to study the risk factors of diabetes and its complications in the eastern region. 3976 diabetics were included in this retrospective study. Clinical, biological, therapeutic and anthropometric data were collected from patient records. The mean age of the patients was 56.24 years (± 16.36 SD), with a clear predominance of females 65%. According to the type of diabetes, type 2 diabetes remains by far the most frequent pathology with (92%). The frequency of complications is around 1/3. One diabetic out of four has at least one modifiable cardiovascular risk factor: arterial hypertension at 25.35%, dyslipidemia at 12.67%, overweight and obesity at 35.48% and 27.8%. The most discriminating factors in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications in order of importance are age of diabetes, hypertension, Hb1c and dyslipidemia, statistically significant associations were found with p 0.0082, 0.0001, 0.002, 0.0001 respectively). Then a multifactorial analysis coupled with a hierarchical ascending classification (CAH) in birth data to two large groups of diabetics with complications and those without complications. This report highlights the extent of diabetes and its complications in the eastern region. In this respect, a national program declined at the regional level for the reduction of environmental risk factors must be considered in the short term..
