Women are more susceptible to metabolic disorders due to a high-calorie diet, so they have higher risk factors for neuroinflammation. This study was conducted to explain the effect of Moderate Intensity Interval Training (MIIT) on short-term memory, neocortex glia neuron ratio, and hippocampal pyknotic granule cells in female Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) with a high-calorie diet. The Wistar rats used were two months old. The study was conducted for four weeks, preceded by the acclimatization of experimental animals. MIIT intervention in the form of swimming is done every 5 minutes with a rest period of 2.5 minutes with two repetitions. Measurement of short-term memory using Y-maze instrument. Results: Before treatment, the highest average body weight was in groups C, B, and A (p=0.006). After treatment, the highest average body weight was found in groups B, C, and A (p=0.569). The test results of short-term memory measurement using the alternation indicator showed no significant difference between groups in the pre-alternation test (p=0.481). There was a significant difference between groups for the neuron-glia ratio (p=0.370) and the hippocampus of the pyknosis granule cells (p=0.078). In conclusion, there is a significant difference between groups A, B, and C towards the MIIT intervention.","PeriodicalId":44967,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Migration Health and Social Care","volume":"162 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135775597","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 paper aims to explore how middle-aged migrants in the diaspora define themselves in space and time. Design/methodology/approach The paper is based on ethnographic fieldwork done among Malawian migrants (herein referred to as Lydiatians) settled at Lydiate informal settlement in peri-urban Zimbabwe. Findings The paper reveals that, while younger migrants have a “radical transnational stance”, and older migrants regard their place of settlement as their final home, middle-aged migrants prefer to maintain a “strategic dual sense of place” regarding their place of settlement in the diaspora. These middle-aged migrants can be entrepreneurs considering their current settlement as a strategic place for petty commodity trading or those who find informal settlements to provide needed opportunities for cheap housing as the migrants pursue work in the nearby towns. Practical implications The paper offers a deeper understanding of how middle-aged migrants navigate their sense of place and contribute to host nations by functioning as key resources, dynamizing local economies through entrepreneurial activities and labour provision for various industries. The implications of this research should encourage states to positively interact with migrants, leveraging their potential for societal and economic development. Originality/value The finding that migrants in the diaspora have a dual, strategic view of their settlements is fascinating, if not new. Before this, scholars presented migrants as transnational figures, successively moving to a better place, which finally becomes home. However, the data presented in this paper suggests that this characterization associating migrants with maintaining a “stable, sedentary, bounded and fixed perception of home” is oversimplified. This is because migrants can sometimes continue to cherish the idea of informal settlements in the diaspora as home, just as the migrants also entertain the nearby established towns as useful places in their life.","PeriodicalId":44967,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Migration Health and Social Care","volume":"27 8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135875330","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 purpose of this study was to explore from MPS’ perspective the utility of the identity (ID) card and its influence on social inclusion for MPS. Design/methodology/approach A sequential explanatory mixed methods design was used. First, a descriptive phone survey was administered ( n = 119). Associations between ID card use and levels of social inclusion were assessed using ordinal logistic regression. Second, semi-structured interviews ( n = 12) were done with purposely selected participants. Results were mixed using a statistics-by-theme approach. Findings Results showed that ID card users compared to nonusers reported higher levels of participation in society and more control/independence in daily life. No statistical associations were found between card use and sense of belonging nor sense of safety. Interviews highlighted that the ID card enabled participation in socio-recreational activities and perceived empowerment. A heightened sense of belonging was also found. Interview participants expressed fear of police despite owning the ID card. Practical implications Overall, although the municipal ID card promoted social inclusion for MPS, there is a need to render the ID card official to fully achieve this goal. Findings can inform the creation of public policies that foster inclusion and health of MPS in cities around the world.

The goal is to analyze the implementation of teleradiology service policies in healthcare facilities and assess the supporting and inhibiting factors for the implementation of teleradiology service policies in healthcare facilities. The research method used in this study is descriptive qualitative. A total of 12 informants were interviewed, including individuals from Batin Mangunang Hospital, PON Hospital, and X Tambun Bekasi Hospital. Purposive and snowball techniques were employed to identify informants in this study, along with the use of data triangulation and ATLAS.ti software. The results of the implementation of teleradiology service policies at Batin Mangunang Hospital currently involve the use of the WhatsApp application for teleradiology services. Previously, in 2016, the hospital had used applications from the Ministry of Health, but this only lasted for a few months. The inhibiting factor is that the implementers do not fully understand and implement teleradiology services, mainly because they did not continue to provide funding sources and infrastructure facilities. The implementation of teleradiology service policies at PON Hospital for teleradiology services previously used teleradiology from the Ministry of Health and only ran for a few months. Currently, they use Picture Archiving And Communication System (PACS) facilities. The supporting factor is that the implementors understand teleradiology service policies related to DICOM usage standards.","PeriodicalId":44967,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Migration Health and Social Care","volume":"31 8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135876134","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 purpose of this study is to better understand how Latino immigrants were impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, allowing a community health clinic in Charlotte, North Carolina to quickly respond to their needs. Design/methodology/approach A mixed method, rapid appraisal using community-based participatory research approaches conducted in February to April 2021 by a team of bilingual researchers. Project consisted of a Spanish, electronic survey distributed through community leaders and in-person interviews conducted in Spanish at COVID-19 vaccine clinics. SPSS Version 26 was used for quantitative analysis. Ordinal and binary logistic regression tests were performed to assess the associations among several outcome and four predictor variables: documentation status, status of health insurance, level of trust in the vaccine and place of birth. Qualitative analysis used rapid appraisal and grounded theory approaches. Findings Latino immigrants experienced job and income loss, resulting in difficulty paying for food, housing and health care. Participants experienced emotional and financial stress and isolation from family. Undocumented immigrants were more likely to experience detrimental impacts than documented immigrants. Most wanted the vaccine but felt barriers like trust and insurance may prevent them. Research limitations/implications Findings from this study are locally relevant to Latino immigrants living in the Charlotte area of North Carolina and findings may not be generalizable to other Latinos. Participants were recruited through faith networks and those who are not connected may not be represented. In addition, interview participants were sampled during vaccination clinics and likely had positive views of the vaccine. Practical implications As a direct result of this project, community health clinic (CHC) held vaccination clinics to instill more confidence in the vaccination process. Spanish-speaking staff were available to assist with paperwork and answer questions onsite. The importance of familismo in decision-making and the reported presence of misinformation about the vaccine prompted CHC to continue providing accurate information about the vaccine in Spanish, and to strategize marketing materials to reflect a family-centric approach to better appeal to Latinos. Findings were used to obtain funding for expansion of clinical and behavioral health services in the community through mobile units, increasing accessibility for Latino immigrants. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this was the first study to examine the effects of the pandemic on a growing and disproportionately underrepresented group in an emerging immigrant state.

The risk of developing penile cancer significantly increases with factors like age, inadequate hygiene practices, and having a foreskin. A 62-year-old male patient presented with a complaint of painful urination, which he had been experiencing for the past four months, and this pain had worsened over the last month. The patient had a medical history of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), an incarcerated hernia, and had developed ulcers on his penis four months ago. In this case, the patient's past issues with hygiene and smoking likely contributed to the development of penile cancer. However, in more advanced cases like this one, where the cancer had significantly progressed, necessitating the removal of the entire penile body, a radical penectomy was carried out. Subsequently, a perineal urethrostomy was created to provide an alternative route for urination.
