Curcuma longa L. (Turmeric) is the most popular cultivated plant.. Curcumin, a polyphenolic yellow substance, is the major constituent of tumeric .Many studies have been done on curcumin and this substance has a variety of effects Carried out on animals. . Curcumin reduced hyperlipidemia and insulin resistance. The current study aimed to measuring this effect on humans. Objective: To assess the effects and safety of taking turmeric powder as antihypertensive agent in elderly. Design: Prospective, observational study. All subjects were selected from Beni Suef University Hospital. The current study includes hypertensive patients with age above 50 years old classified into 2 groups. Group I: Normal control group consists of healthy volunteers. Group II: Hypertensive group includes hypertensive patients. Each group includes 20 subjects (n=20) divided into ( male and female) subjects. In the current study, each group was taken a specific dose of turmeric powder for 8 weeks treatment. Results: The present study revealed that a significant reduction in readings of systolic and diastolic blood pressure had happened for patients who took turmeric powder for two months.

Unfortunately, nothing is known about how to eliminate these last-resort methods. Research on patient safety in mental health has lagged in the adoption of a system perspective and approach. However, recognizing that no single factor or group of factors accounts for a patient safety incident, in light of the paucity of data, we describe factors, standards, and procedures that may contribute to adverse events in mental health. Methods: PubMed and Psych info were searched to locate studies that specifically evaluated efforts to reduce seclusion and restraint in psychiatric units. Key search terms included seclusion, restraint, reduce, psychiatric patient safety, psychiatric safety, psychiatric sanctuary, and quality of care psychiatry. Based on this search, little is known about how to reduce such measures of last resort and improve the safety of psychiatric settings. The review of the available literature found a few descriptions of administrative efforts to reduce seclusion and restraint at specific psychiatric hospitals or units that were followed by limited objective documentation of fewer episodes of seclusion or restraint. Conclusions: Hopefully, this discussion will stimulate research on this understudied topic and provide a framework for improving patient safety in the psychiatric setting.","PeriodicalId":294863,"journal":{"name":"NILES journal for Geriatric and Gerontology","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121112119","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}

However, the relation between the CHA2DS2VASc score and CAD in patients with NVAF is not studied well. The objective of this study is to evaluate the correlation between the CHA2DS2VASc score and the coronary angiographic findings in NVAF patients. Methods: This is a prospective, randomized, single-center study that included all patients with NVAF that attended Sohag University Hospital Cath. Lab. for coronary angiography from the first of January 2018 till the end of December 2021. Demographic data, risk factors of coronary artery disease, different presentations, echocardiographic and coronary angiographic findings were analyzed and assessed. Results: More than half (56.2%) of patients with NVAF had CAD. The majority of NVAF patients with normal coronary angiography were in score 2. All 26 patients had single CAD >50%: stenosis with 4 in score 0, 8 in score 1, 7 in score 2, 5 in score 3 and 2 in score 4. One patient had 2VD and was in score 2. 10 patients had 3VD: 2 in score 0, 5 in score 1, 2 in score 2, and 1 in score 3 . Conclusion: More than half (56.2%) of the patients with NVAF had CAD based on coronary angiography. Single vessel CAD >50% was the most frequent lesion observed, meanwhile there was no correlation between the severity of the disease and CHA2DS2VASC score in NVAF patients.","PeriodicalId":294863,"journal":{"name":"NILES journal for Geriatric and Gerontology","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127716124","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}

Several viral infections can affect the audio-vestibular pathway and can cause audio-vestibular manifestations. The objective of our study was to assess the effect of COVID-19 pandemic on the Audio-vestibular functions. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional self-reported online questionnaire about audiovestibular manifestations was carried out on 154 adult participants whom previously complaint from COVID-19 with positive Polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Results : the mean age of participants was 30.54 years with higher predominance in females. During the infection the most common complaint was vertigo, followed by hearing loss then tinnitus. After resolution some of the affected participants reported that audiovestibular manifestations were improved mainly vertigo, and those with no manifestations during the infection not reported any audiovestibular complaint after recovery. Conclusion : Audio-vestibular manifestations among COVID-19 should be taken into consideration as possible complaints in affected individuals. Early identification and management will help to give a better quality of life to those individuals.","PeriodicalId":294863,"journal":{"name":"NILES journal for Geriatric and Gerontology","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117317083","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 objective of this study was to determine the efficacy of radiofrequency ablation for hepatic cancer, and the important risk factors that affect the outcome. Methods : We enrolled 168 patients diagnosed with a single carcinoma (diameter ≤5 cm); 121 patients presenting with esophageal varices (EV) and 47 patients without EV, who underwent radiofrequency ablation as treatment. Logistic regression analyses of risk factors for the occurrence of complications and multivariate coxregression analyses for overall survival were performed. Results : Complete ablation was achieved in 107 hepatic cancer (88.4%) of patients presenting with EV, and in 38 hepatic cancer (80.9%) of patients presenting without EV, left lobe lesion (P = 0.01), decreased in platelet count (P = 0.02), and decreased in prothrombin concentration (P= 0.02) are independent factors for RF ablation complication, after 24 months follow up period, the difference in survival between these two risk groups was insignificant (P = 0.097) Conclusion : This study showed that most patients with hepatic cancer with EV can tolerate RF ablation, and four factors were recognized to affect the outcome of RF ablation and survival rate.","PeriodicalId":294863,"journal":{"name":"NILES journal for Geriatric and Gerontology","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123386093","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}
