The media reporting of suicide and subsequent suicides are closely associated. Studies reveal country wise variations in the quality of media reporting. We aimed to do a bibliometric analysis of the published research on media reporting of suicide. All the published articles available on the PubMed database from the time of inception till August 2021 were included in the study. All the PubMed IDs of the articles were entered in Harvard Catalyst, a free online software, for bibliometric analysis, and data were extracted and verified. A total of 158 published articles were identified. The average number of authors per article was 5.108 and the average number of times an article cited was 9.639 (excluding self-citation). The h-index of the published articles was 19. The Crisis journal published the maximum number of articles (n = 24). The highest number of average citations was for systematic reviews. Maximum articles were published in 2020 (n = 27). Suicide reporting in the media is an important subject of suicide research. However, original studies on this subject are few. Large-scale studies will contribute to the development of an evidence base for future recommendations and guidelines on this important subject.","PeriodicalId":13457,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Health Sciences and Biomedical Research (KLEU)","volume":"20 1","pages":"199 - 203"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73101652","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

India has the highest diabetes burden in the world and is called as the “Diabetic Capital of the world.” Even though the disease is so rampant, there are ample misconceptions about diabetes and this has become a hurdle in effective management and control of the disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the urban health center among 200 diabetics. Patients were asked about their belief in misconceptions regarding diet, exercise, treatment-seeking behavior, and self-care of diabetes. RESULTS: From a total of 200 participants, 112 (56%) were females. Majority 183 (91.5%) were self-monitoring their blood glucose. More than half of the participants were on oral hypoglycemic drugs. In this study factors such as low educational status, participants staying in joint family, low socioeconomic class, participants on oral hypoglycemic drugs, participants on both oral hypoglycemic drugs and insulin, participants on herbal treatment had more prevailing misconceptions regarding diabetes. CONCLUSION: There were many prevailing misconceptions among the diabetic patients, especially related to diet, treatment, and self-care. Regular health education programs regarding misconceptions can change the attitude of diabetic patients and improve their compliance toward treatment.","PeriodicalId":13457,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Health Sciences and Biomedical Research (KLEU)","volume":"200 1","pages":"230 - 234"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75910661","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Arteriovenous fistulas (AV fistulas) are considered the gold standard for hemodialysis vascular access based on their superior patency, low complication rates, improved adequacy, lower cost to the healthcare system, and decreased risk of patient mortality. A failing AV fistula places the patient at risk for inadequate dialysis, which can lead to numerous complications and increased morbidity and mortality. Patient education support patients to live the best possible quality of life. It instills patient self-confidence to help them carry out behavior necessary to reach the desired goal. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of the study is to determine the effect of self-instructional module by comparing the pretest and posttest knowledge scores regarding care of AV fistula among hemodialysis patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: With a quantitative approach, preexperimental one-group pretest-posttest design was adopted for the study. In this study, 64 hemodialysis patients with AV fistula were selected by using nonprobability convenient sampling technique. The tools used for the study were demographic variables, self-structured knowledge questionnaire and self-instructional module. RESULTS: The study revealed that the mean posttest knowledge score (12) was significantly higher than the mean pretest knowledge score (7.32) as evidenced by t = 5.65 (P = 0.05) and P = 0.0001, which shows that self-instructional module was effective on care of AV fistula. It also revealed that there was significant association between pretest knowledge score and selected demographic variables of educational status and previous exposure to information. CONCLUSION: A similar study can be taken on large scale for better generalization. On the basis of the findings, the researcher concluded that self-instructional module on care of AV fistula was effective among hemodialysis patients.","PeriodicalId":13457,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Health Sciences and Biomedical Research (KLEU)","volume":"5 1","pages":"270 - 274"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80263151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed at elucidating the concomitant existence of CB and NSD in adult Nigerians. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Following institutional ethical approval, brain computed tomography images of 336 patients (199 males and 137 females) aged ≥ 20 years were analyzed for CB and NSD in the Radiology Department of a Teaching Hospital. Using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences software version 23, the prevalence of these variants was expressed in percentages, and their association was probed using the Chi-square test. The angle of septum deviation was summarized in means and standard deviations. The differences in deviation angle in the presence of either ipsilateral or contralateral CB were assessed using the independent t-test. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS: The prevalence of coexisting CB and NSD was 77, 22.9%. There was a significant preponderance of NSD away from a unilateral or dominant CB (54, 84.4%) (P = 0.022). This deviation occurred at a significantly higher angle (11.82° ± 2.21°) than deviation toward a CB (9.86° ± 2.63°) (P = 0.036). CONCLUSION: The awareness of the association between CB and NSD in our population emphasizes on mandatory preoperative radiological evaluation to aid in planning for safe endoscopic surgeries through the nose.","PeriodicalId":13457,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Health Sciences and Biomedical Research (KLEU)","volume":"15 1","pages":"219 - 223"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79392615","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The prevalence of DVT has been reported up to 34.1% in CCF patients, and its presence may increase the morbidity and mortality of CCF patients. The presence of DVT may increase the morbidity and mortality of CCF patients. With this background in mind, we conducted a study to know the prevalence of DVT in CCF patients from our part of the world. MATERIALS AND METHODS: An analytical cross-sectional study was carried out over a period of 1 year from March 2015 to February 2016 on 50 patients admitted with CCF to our hospital. After obtaining information on underlying comorbid illness, duration of CCF symptoms, and preliminary investigations, the patients were subjected to venous Doppler ultrasound. RESULTS: A total of 50 patients admitted with the diagnosis of CCF were enrolled in this study. The mean age of patients was 63.28 ± 9.5 years. The mean body mass index of the patients was 24.48 ± 2.8 kg/m2. Five out of 50 patients were found to have deep vein thrombosis in our study. The duration of symptoms of more than 10 days before seeking medical consultation was statistically significant in patients of CCF with DVT.
