The review found that more work needs to be done to improve patient safety. This includes lowering the number of mistakes, falls, hospital infections, and surgical complications and improving other safety features so that all hospitals can be safer.","PeriodicalId":400966,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Biological and Pharmaceutical Sciences Archive","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115165040","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 difference between a bulla and a pneumothorax obtained from imaging results is that if the lung collapses towards the ipsilateral hilum it is called a pneumothorax, while the bulla will appear to surround or wrap around the lung. Asthma is a disease characterized by chronic inflammation and bronchoconstriction. In acute asthma attacks or exacerbations, bronchoconstriction causes severe bilateral lung parenchymal inflation.We present a case of a 32-years-old male with multiple bullae, a complete history of tuberculosis treatment and suffering from asthma since childhood but not controlled.

To mathematically model the cases of Dengue in pediatric age through the methodology of the Objective Regression Regressive, during the period 2016-2021 in the province of Villa Clara, Cuba. A descriptive, retrospective, analytical-statistical (Objective Regression Regressive methodology) and prospective longitudinal study was carried out. The study area corresponded to Villa Clara province, which is located in the center of Cuba, where the population under study was the 13 municipalities that make up the province. The total number of cases of Dengue fever during the six years covered by the study was 2 013. A database was created for confirmed cases of Dengue in Villa Clara during the years 2016 to 2021, specifically for children under 18 years of age, where the data were entered in files and processed using the SPSS version 22 statistical package, which made it possible to carry out a mathematical modeling of Dengue cases, in the short and long term. The plotting of confirmed cases of Dengue fever showed that the highest incidence of cases was in the months from July to November, with an average of 28 cases studied. The short-term model depends on the cases returned in 1, 2, 7 and 14 months, which indicates a strong dependence on the previous month, so that all monitoring, surveillance, management, control and sanitation actions carried out in advance will have a positive impact on the following month, while the long-term model depended on the cases returned in 12 months, and the trend turned out to be positive and significant. It was possible to model the cases of Dengue, where the trend was to a non-significant decrease in the short term, while in the long term, this trend was to a significant increase, and for which, the cases depended on 1, 2, 7 and 14 months ago, so the best model was the long term, being able to predict the behavior of this infectious entity one year in advance, as well as the extension to longer dates in years.","PeriodicalId":400966,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Biological and Pharmaceutical Sciences Archive","volume":"316 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115869178","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}

Most cardiovascular disease (CVD) outbreaks in Africa are driven by hypertension, although global detection, awareness, treatment, and control rates are low. Aim: the study aimed to analyze the physicochemical parameters and quality assessment of different brands of Lisinopril. Method: Five (5) brands of Lisinopril oral tablets (10mg) were purchased and coded LSP1, LSP2, LSP3, LSP4, and LSP5. Different test including weight uniformity, standardizations, extraction, titrimetric (aqueous and non-aqueous) analysis, and quality determination of all the brands was conducted using standard procedures outlined in the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP). Result: All brands of Lisinopril used in the analysis conformed to the weight uniformity test. LSP1 conformed to the standard purity range in aqueous titrimetric analysis (98.5%), while the other brands had a close percentage but did not fall within the stated standard with a percentage purity of 82.2% (LSP2), 75.5% (LSP3), 87.1% (LSP4), and 75.6% (LSP5), respectively. For the non-aqueous titration, LSP 1 and LSP 2, conform to the standard percentage purity outlined in the USP, with 100.65% (LSP1), and 97.55% (LSP2). The brands had a percentage purity of 72.78% (LSP3), 88.26% (LSP4), and 88.26% (LSP 5), respectively.
