There is an unmet need to find out a highly sensitive and specific biomarker for RA. This was the first study designed in Indian setting to assess whether it can be used as a biomarker in the diagnosis of RA in the Indian population. Aim: To correlate serum Beclin1 in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis in the Indian population. Patients and Methods: Observational analytical study was conducted for 18 months at AIIMS Rishikesh, Department of Biochemistry in collaboration with the Department of Rheumatology. Beclin1 serum expression levels were estimated by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and beclin1 mRNA expression was assessed by a real-time polymerase chain reaction from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Beclin1 expression was compared by Mann–Whitney U-test using SPSS 22 version. Cut-off values of Beclin1 for screening of cases were analysed by receiver operating characteristic test. Results: Age- and sex-matched 38 RA patients (5 males and 33 females) and 39 controls (8 males and 31 females) were recruited in the study. Patients with the American College of Rheumatology/European League Against Rheumatism score ≥6 were recruited in this study. Serum level of beclin1 was significantly (P ≤ 0.001) lower in cases (6.30 [2.82]) compared to healthy controls (11.43 [4.62]) which were corroborated with mRNA expression. The optimal cut-off value for detecting RA cases was 7.25 with 89.7% sensitivity and 79.8% specificity. Conclusion: Beclin1 may be involved in the pathogenesis of RA and may be considered a diagnostic marker for RA cases.","PeriodicalId":251651,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Evidence","volume":"90 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132200337","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 job entailed good knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) with regard to infection prevention and control (IPC). Aims: To assess the KAP of AWW with regard to IPC in context of COVID-19 in Lucknow district. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted using Google form between 30 June and 28 July 2020. AWWs were recruited from Lucknow district irrespective of their training status; data analysis was done on 137 participants. The mean KAP score was calculated and student t-test was applied. Chi-square test was performed between categorical variables and KAP. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression was applied between independent and dependent variables. Results: The mean score of knowledge was 7.22 ± 2.64, attitude was 4.34 ± 1.14 and practice was 4.44 ± 1.11. There was a significant difference between good and poor score for KAP. Participants with older age, good knowledge and attitude scores were more likely to have good practices. Conclusion: AWWs had good attitude and practices, but lacked adequate knowledge on IPC measures. Ensuring training for AWW on IPC is important.","PeriodicalId":251651,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Evidence","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129307327","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 disease, colloquially known as the Black fungus, was declared epidemic by the government. This review describes the epidemiological pattern and the determinants of mucormycosis. The review also proposes evidence based public health strategies for the prevention and control of mucormycosis. The rationale use of steroids in clinical management, formulation of evidence-based standard treatment guidelines and adherence to those guidelines by physicians, the strengthening of primary healthcare services to facilitate early care; compliance with infection prevention and control measures at all the health facilities; and early diagnosis and case management are the key strategies to prevent future emergence of mucormycosis. The article concludes that it is not enough that we tackle a health challenge at hand, in crisis mode. It is equally important that we derive learnings and take measures prevent any future. Effective control of mucormycosis and prevention of future outbreaks of disease is possible through coordinated actions of health policy makers, public health experts and clinicians. The entire episode is also a reminder for strengthening India's health systems at all levels – primary, secondary and tertiary – as well as in both public and private sector.","PeriodicalId":251651,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Evidence","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127558462","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}
