While the major manifestation is respirator with a risk of acute respiratory distress syndrome, several extrapulmonary aspects, particularly cardiovascular, have emerged over time. \u0000The aim of this work is to study the clinical, biological, radiological, therapeutic, and evolutionary characteristics of acute myocarditis associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection in comparison to data from the literature. \u0000This is a prospective cohort study conducted at the Ibn Sina University Hospital in Rabat over a period of 9 months (from January 1, 2021, to September 30, 2021) and included patients hospitalized in different departments managing COVID-19 and diagnosed with acute myocarditis confirmed by cardiac MRI. \u0000Fifteen patients were included during the study period. The average age of patients was 40 years old with a slight male predominance (sex ratio M/F-1.14). The average time between the onset of COVID-19 infection and the appearance of myocarditis symptoms was 17 days. The symptoms were mainly dominated by chest pain (40% of cases), unexplained cardiogenic shock (40% of cases), and palpitations (20% of cases). ECG revealed diffuse repolarization abnormalities in more than half of the cases (53%) and supraventricular tachycardia (27%). The inflammatory markers were significantly disturbed (CRP = 102 +/-47.30 mg/L and ferritin - 510 +/-336.45 ng/mL). Troponin I was elevated with myocarditis kinetics in all patients. Cardiac MRI showed T2 hypersignal corresponding to edema with early and late subepicardial enhancement, mainly located at the level of the left ventricular lateral wall. \u0000The evolution was marked by the occurrence of death in 5 patients (33.33%) in the days following hospitalization for cardiogenic shock and dilated cardiomyopathy in only one case (6.67%). It was favourable for the rest of the patients (60%). \u0000The results of this study have highlighted several characteristics of myocarditis associated with SARS-CoV-2. Firstly, there is a delayed interval between virus infection and the onset of cardiac symptoms. Additionally, the kinetics of myocardial injury markers are distinct, and there is significant disruption of inflammatory markers at the time of diagnosis. Moreover, fulminant forms of myocarditis are associated with a reserved prognosis and high mortality. \u0000Furthermore, the study emphasizes the crucial importance of cardiac MRI availability for confirming the diagnosis in the absence of histological evidence from endomyocardial biopsy.","PeriodicalId":49491,"journal":{"name":"Southeast Asian Journal of Tropical Medicine and Public Health","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84134475","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

AO 34-A1 extra-articular lower pole fractures. Rapid flexion against quadriceps contraction causes this fracture. After bone removal, the patellar tendon is frequently sutured transosseously. Long fixation and sluggish recovery cause quadriceps weakness. Two of 25 patients had problems with poor vertical wirings. We examined 2 vertical wiring procedures for extra-articular distal patella fractures. \u0000Objective: To look at how well separate vertical wirings work for treating fractures outside of the joint at the end of the patella. \u0000Methods: Prospective, observational study. The study was done from July 2015 to June 2017 at NITOR's Department of Orthopedics. Patients with post-traumatic distal patella extra-articular fractures admitted to NITOR comprised the study population. From July 2015 to June 2017, total 52 patients had patellar fractures. At NITOR, 46 people with lower pole patella fractures were wired vertically with surgery. NITOR checked up on 40 people. After 18 weeks, the final functional result was looked at.

CHWs are an important element of healthcare services in Rwanda. Community health workers integrate individuals of their communities to provide preventive, habitual, and emergency maternity healthcare requirements. Maternal health is still a challenge to the achievement of SDGs by 2030 in the health-care sector compared with the effort provided by CHWs.  The aim of study was to assess the influence of community health workers' role on uptake of maternal health services in Musanze District.\u0000Methods: The study design used was an analytical cross-sectional study design utilizing both quantitative and qualitative methods. Simple random sample approach was employed to choose 208 CHWs and 16 CHWs’ supervisors were interviewed for qualitative data (KII). The statistical tool for social sciences (SPSS) Version 26, was used to examine the data. Categorical variables were summarized with descriptive statistics for frequencies and percentages. Bivariate analysis with the Chi-square test of independence was used to check the association between both dependent and independent variables. Ordinal logistic regression was used as the most suitable inferential statistic. Qualitative data were analyzed by NVIVO version 10.\u0000Results: This study found that the uptake of maternal health services was regarded as very high. 85.1% of CHWs were knowledgeable on the warning signs of an emergency among pregnant mothers, and 89.4% reported that they would act based on these warning signs. CHWs had necessary training to provide care to pregnant mothers with p* =. 001. Skills that CHWs have on the administration of misoprostol to prevent post-partum hemorrhage was significant with p* <.001.

Prolonged exposure to stress is usually the main cause of emotional exhaustion and it manifests through the loss of enthusiasm for work, feeling helpless, trapped, and defeated. Depersonalization occurs when physicians treat patients indifferently, objectify them, and develop a negative attitude toward their colleagues and profession. Inefficiency, or the lack of a sense of personal achievement, is characterized by the individual’s withdrawal from responsibilities and detachment from the job.  \u0000Aim: To assess burnout prevalence among physicians of primary health care centers and units in Port Said. \u0000Subjects and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with simple random sampling of physicians of primary care centers and units.

Hantaviruses are enveloped RNA viruses that persistently infect rodent hosts without ill-effect. The host persistently excretes virus in urine and saliva. Man becomes infected from the rodents when one enters the ecological niche of the other. Hantaviruses can cause two types of diseases in humans: hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and Hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS). The number of reported Hantavirus infections is increasing worldwide, and new Hantaviruses are being discovered in many countries, making them a global public health concern. Hantavirus infections are thought to be under diagnosed due to the fact that they frequently cause asymptomatic and nonspecific mild infections, as well as a lack of simple standardized diagnostic laboratory methods.
