The method used in this research was a true experiment with a posttest-only control group design. There are two groups determined through randomization by taking cards that have been numbered according to arrival. Odd card numbers in the control group were given water, and even card numbers in the treatment group were given watermelon juice; scanning was carried out after 60 minutes. Assessment of distension using measuring distance software, enhancement by measuring the Region of Interest and assessment of artefacts and anatomical information using a questionnaire. Data processing and analysis uses the Mann-Whitney test. The research showed that using watermelon juice as a diuretic in non-contrast CT urography examinations increased distension of the pelvic pelvis and bladder. In contrast, in the ureters, it did not. The p-value of distension of the pelvic rents was 0.003, ureter 0.345 and bladder 0.036. It does not cause enhancement in the pelvis, ureters and bladder; the p-value of the pelvis is 0.599, the ureter is 0.294, and the bladder is 0.345. It does not cause artefacts in the pelvis, ureters and bladder. The p-value of the pelvis is 1.000, the ureter is 0.680, and the bladder is 0.511. Moreover, produces the same anatomical information; the p-value is 1,000. This study concludes watermelon juice as a natural diuretic provides superior imaging performance in pelvic and bladder distension compared to water.","PeriodicalId":44967,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Migration Health and Social Care","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135045901","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 methods in this report are used to confirm the diagnosis of RO TB based on the Mtb susceptibility test using phenotypic and genotypic TCM and LPA methods. Diagnosis of tuberculosis in suspected TB is carried out by TCM examination. Based on the plotting results, there is a girl with the initials S who is diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis and is short in stature, so it is necessary to intervene through a family medicine approach.

This study aims to examine the relationships between perception of discrimination, adaptation and saudade. Design/methodology/approach The sample consisted of 655 African migrants from Angola, Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau and Mozambique living in Portugal with a mean age of 38 years. The average duration of stay in Portugal was 22 years. Findings Results indicated that length of residence impacted the difficulties experienced with saudade: respondents with longer lengths of stay in the society of settlement experienced less difficulty with saudade. As predicted, the results indicated that higher perceptions of discrimination and loneliness correlated positively with experienced saudade, while sociocultural adaptation correlated negatively with experienced saudade. Originality/value Path analysis was conducted to investigate mediation impacts of sociocultural adjustment and loneliness on the relationship between perception of discriminatory events and difficulty with saudade. This study suggests that sociocultural adaptation and loneliness partially mediated the relation between perception of discrimination and saudade. Notwithstanding the low level of perceived discrimination found in this African background sample, this antecedent plays a relevant role in the saudade experienced. This evidence may be useful in targeting programs to improve sociocultural adjustment and to reduce loneliness which may help to alleviate the difficulty with feeling saudade among African migrants.","PeriodicalId":44967,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Migration Health and Social Care","volume":"99 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135476828","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 aim of this research is to find out and analyze tin filter variations on noise in the mastoid CT scan protocol using a single source CT scan: phantom study. The method used in this research is Pre-Experimental with Posttest-Only Control Design. The noise value research results showed a difference in noise and SNR values with a p-value (p<0.05), and there was a reduction in radiation dose of 41.95% compared to the standard protocol. NPS values are at a frequency of 0.28, except for the Sn100 protocol. Subjective Analysis by two radiologists with a kappa value of 0.75 indicated that there was a moderate level of agreement. The Tin Filter Sn100 protocol can reduce the radiation dose, and the resulting image quality is good enough for diagnostic purposes, so the Tin Filter Sn100 protocol can be used as a Standard Operational Procedure for Mastoid CT Scan examination at Hermina Depok Hospital. This study has implications that may contribute to refining mastoid CT scanning protocols, leading to improved image quality, reduced radiation exposure, and improved diagnostic capabilities in clinical practice.","PeriodicalId":44967,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Migration Health and Social Care","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134885568","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 analyse gaps in structural (migration-related inequalities) and cultural (responsiveness to ethno-cultural practices) competencies among maternal health practitioners in Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ). Design/methodology/approach Using a semi-structured interview guide, in-depth interviews were conducted with 13 maternal health practitioners in NZ. Data were analysed using a thematic analysis framework. Findings The results highlight significant barriers around language and communication, cultural stereotyping by professionals, ethnic women’s own constraints around family and cultural expectations and their lack of knowledge about reproductive health. In addition, practitioners’ own ethnic differences are inseparable from their approach to structural and cultural competencies; there were instances of ‘over-’ or ‘under-’ reading of culture, practitioner constructions of ideal pregnancies and anti-racism concerns that shaped maternal care practices that were sensitive to, but also marginalised, ethnic migrant women who attended maternity services. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the only study in NZ that examines the impact of complex dynamics of migration and culture on knowledge, beliefs and values of practitioners, in context of their own personal biographies. Identifying strategies to improve the way diversity is practiced in hospital settings can be transformational in improving maternal outcomes for ethnic migrant women in NZ.","PeriodicalId":44967,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Migration Health and Social Care","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136010965","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}
