In these subjects, the SARS-CoV-2’s pathophysiology manifestation was seen to be significantly more alarming than that in subjects who had no comorbidities or major immunity issues. This presented an overdue wake-up call to mankind to actively participate in strengthening immunity, overall wellness maintenance which allows comorbidity management or better, prevention. Food as the major source to serve nutritional needs appears to be a compromised phenomenon. SARS-CoV-2 pandemic presented a harsh reminder that now is the best time to be inclusive of herbs to human lifestyle alongside physical activities and hygiene. This led to an enlarged worldwide interest in traditional medicine. Traditional Indian medicine, Ayurveda, stands as the most ancient yet living tradition, garnered spotlight for being positively and progressively contributing its therapies aiding SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. These further gains weight with more research and a science-based approach. It is inevitable that it still requires more research and evidence-based efforts to fill the prevalent gap. This review was conducted to gain insight into Ayurveda herbal inclusion to SARS-CoV-2 infection management and the outcomes captured. This review aims to encapsulate the efforts documented and explorative data made available. The hope is for this review to make available the option, probability of an inclusive solution that may be considered to co-stand with allopathy in efforts taken to improve human immunity as a prophylaxis measure, at a larger scale. The review led to a hopeful acceptance of Ayurveda medicinal herbs and their role in SARS-CoV-2 management as positive and reassuring.

Continuous exposure to the trauma and pain of patients can have a negative impact on the wellbeing of therapists. Burnout is a state of mental, physical, and emotional exhaustion brought on by accumulated stress. Compassion fatigue is a condition in which someone becomes numb to the suffering of others and is unable or less able to display empathy towards them. The World Health Organization defines burnout as an occupational phenomenon that should not be applied to describe experiences in other areas of life. Burnout is included in the International Classification of Diseases 11 as an occupational phenomenon resulting from unmanaged, chronic workplace stress. Professional burnout is a multidimensional condition that includes exhaustion, detachment, and professional efficiency (Maslach burnout inventory). When counselors and therapists experience burnout, their patients are also negatively affected. Understanding the extent and incidence of burnout and compassion fatigue among therapists and counselors is the study's principal goal. A qualitative method-based study including therapists and counselors based in Bangalore, India. Detailed, semi-structured face-to-face (online) interviews were conducted through open ended questions with the help of an interview guide based on social situation, economic situation, and personal characteristics. A thematic analysis was undertaken. The majority of them explained difficulties faced in compartmentalizing work and personal life in the initial years of work, economic and family responsibilities associated with burnout, empathizing with clients more due to similar personal experiences, increased workload, and the Jesus complex.

A semi-structured interview was conducted by purposive sampling of fifteen participants with cancers of the oral, lungs, stomach, breast and cervix, six key informant oncologists and four Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) facilitating cancer services. Ethical clearances were received from the study institutes. The data was coded and transcribed verbatim on emerging themes. The emerging themes were treatment delay, financial constraint, alternative medicine and bridging gaps by NGOs. Whereas, if financial status hampered access, harassment on availing care was encountered with choosing herbal medication in fear of chemotherapy, surgery and testimonials of relatives. However, support through NGO collaborations enhanced care efficiency for the health systems and cancer patients alike during the challenging times due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Lessons learnt during the COVID-19 pandemic extend beyond the functioning of a robust health system. Collaboration via sectors became pronounced during this uncertainty, thus, emerging resource pooling and zeal to take charge of one’s health.

Only the cost per unit of medical technology services, medical record and statistics services, and finance and accounting services were calculated. The cost per visit for blood collection services was 21.37 USD. The direct non-medical costs of the blood collection service at the hospital were 30.62 USD. The cost structure of the blood collection at the hospital is mostly fixed (95% of the total cost) and only 5 percent is variable, while the home service can save the cost by about 50% (the cost at the hospital is 30.62 USD, compared to 15.34 USD at home). So, the blood collection at home can reduce the patient's cost burden by 50 percent and the hospital’s cost by 5 percent, as well as being able to respond to the policy of reducing congestion in hospitals during the pandemic situation.

The process of planting rice using pesticides can cause contamination, one of which is arsenic contamination. Arsenic is a heavy metal that can cause various health problems such as disorders of the nervous system, respiratory system, digestive system, cardiovascular and kidney. This study aims to assess the health risks of both carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risks due to consumption of rice containing arsenic. This research uses environmental health risk analysis method. The sample in this study amounted to 9 samples of rice which were analyzed by the Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) method. The sample of respondents was 96 people who were taken by purposive sampling method. Through this study, it was found that the average concentration of arsenic was 0.01 mg/kg, the respondent's body weight was 45.74 kg, the frequency of exposure was 365 days, the intake rate of 200 grams and the duration of exposure adjusted for each respondent's exposure. The final result of the calculation of the carcinogenic analysis (ECR) was 1.02 X 10-4 and the non-carcinogenic analysis (RQ) was 0.29.

Spirituality is an abstract concept in the clinical field. Its subjective nature makes the aspects of care that are provided by the clinicians suboptimal. This article is a preliminary report of a qualitative study that was conducted to explore the perceptions of the intensive care nurses on spirituality and the care that they gave to the patients and their family members. Interviews were conducted with nurses who worked in a 25-bed intensive care unit of a tertiary government hospital in Malaysia. Data from the discussions was recorded and transcribed. Thematic analysis was used to generate codes and themes. A total of 18 nurses were included in this study. The central theme, interfaith connection, emerged through three themes: 1) Spirituality and illness are interconnected to healing; 2) Classification of spiritual care interventions in the intensive care unit; and 3) Intercepting barriers. Conclusions Nurses deemed spiritual care beneficial to critically ill patients and their family members. Barriers to spiritual care can be overcome with a model of spirituality. Further research is needed to explore the experiences of the critically ill patients and their family members in receiving care in the intensive care unit, particularly in addressing their spiritual needs and ensuring their mental health.

The objective of the study is to analyze the impact of vaccination on the control of SARS-CoV-2 infection. The secondary data was obtained by the World Health Organization for COVID-19 cases and the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare for vaccination from January 22, 2022, to May 13, 2022. Exponential regression was performed for total cumulative vaccinations (18 years and older received at least one dose) as an independent variable and the rate of COVID infection (0.1million per week) as a dependent variable. The p-value is 0.001, with a negative slope emphasizing that the correlation is significant for the selected time period. Further, the predictive model with R2 = 0.96 shows the model is best fitted. The mathematical model supports the role of vaccination in decreasing cases of COVID-19.

This exploration study used a two-phase sequential mixed-methods approach. A total of 12 participants were involved in Phase 1 (the qualitative study), with data analysis using the Colaizzi model steps. A total of 118 patients with T2DM were involved in Phase 2. Bivariate data analysis used Spearman correlation tests with a 95% confidence interval and significance set at p<0.05. Five themes were found in Phase 1 of the study: perceptions of diabetes self-management, blood sugar control efforts, blood sugar control barriers, perceived disturbances, and social support. A total of 59% of diabetes self-care behaviors were below the median. Significant correlations were found between diabetes self-care behavior and self-efficacy (p =0.000; r =0.662), quality of life (p =0.003; r =0.270), and family support (p =0.000; r =0.490). The self-care behavior of T2DM patients with symptoms of peripheral neuropathy was mostly poor. Self-efficacy, quality of life, and family support were related to self-care behavior.
