Hospitals as a part of the health service system generally provide services to the community in the form of health services including medical services, medical support services, medical rehabilitation, and nursing services. This research aims to analyze the determinants of factors related to work accidents among nurses at RSUD. Dr. M.M Dunda Limboto . Analytical survey research method with a cross-sectional study design. The population is all RSUD ASN nurses. MMDunda Limboto has as many as 152 people. Sampling used Simple Random Sampling, the sample size was 110 people which was calculated using the Slovin formula. Analysis was carried out using the chi-square test and linear regression test. The results of the chi-square test research showed age (ρ value 0.000), obesity (ρ value 0.018), education (ρ value 0.000), years of service (ρ value 0.000), knowledge (ρ value 0.000), attitude ( ρ value 0.000). The linear regression test obtained the variable gender and length of service, F counts 13.972 and ρ value 0.000, R=0.455 and R Square =0.207. This research concludes that there is a relationship between age, obesity, education, length of service, knowledge, attitude, and work accidents among nurses at RSUD. Dr. M.M Dunda Limboto . Gender and length of service are the variables most related to work accidents among nurses at RSUD MM Dunda Limboto at 20.7%, a medium level of significance. Therefore, it is recommended that nurses use PPE such as gloves, masks, eye protection, and protective gowns when necessary and take part in regular safety training.","PeriodicalId":504355,"journal":{"name":"International Journal Of Health & Medical Research","volume":"63 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141338438","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}

They arise from spindle-shaped mesenchymal cells known as interstitial cells of Cajal. Its onset can be at any age, with the peak occurring in the sixth decade. Case Presentation: We report the case of a 34-year-old woman with a complaint about a lump in her lower abdomen that has been progressively enlarging over the past year without any significant symptoms following the lump. Findings in the ultrasound suggest an ovarian mass. Laparotomy was carried out, and while no ovarian mass was found, instead a mass was identified in the mesentery of the small bowel. As a result, a complete excision of the tumor was performed, with histopathologic and immunohistochemical results confirming a GIST diagnosis. Conclusion: Representing a tiny percentage of gastrointestinal tumors, GISTs are rare. GISTs may be asymptomatic or present without any typical symptoms. Sole reliance on clinical and radiological investigations can cause them to be easily overlooked. Awareness of GIST is critical and care must be taken in diagnosis since other tumor can mimic GISTs in endoscopic, imaging, and histological findings.","PeriodicalId":504355,"journal":{"name":"International Journal Of Health & Medical Research","volume":"55 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141339268","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}

Research indicates that the survival rate for early-stage breast cancer patients is significantly higher compared to those diagnosed at middle or late stages. Therefore, it is crucial to focus on research for the rapid diagnosis of breast cancer. Numerous diagnostic methods have been developed to date, primarily utilizing imaging and molecular biotechnology. These methods have greatly contributed to the diagnosis and follow up of BC. In this review article, a brief explanation has been introduced about the main laboratory methods that are recently used in the diagnosis of BC. It has been concluded that many diagnostic methods have been developed to detect breast cancer at different stages of the tumor. Some of these tests have been used to determine the appropriate chemotherapy method (e.g. molecular tests for gene changes), other are more generic in the determination of many tumor (e.g. complete blood count), while salivary methods are still controversial in the diagnosis of BC.","PeriodicalId":504355,"journal":{"name":"International Journal Of Health & Medical Research","volume":"58 25","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141339145","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 study aimed to analyze the risk factors including education, employment, marital status, alcohol consumption status, sexual practices history, condom use behavior, and the most dominant risk factors for the incidence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) of Gonorrhea in male patients at the Hitam Putih Clinic in Gorontalo. The research design employed was an analytical observational approach with a case-control design. The sample in this study comprised 33 male patients with gonorrhea and 66 male control patients with non-gonorrhea, matched based on patients’ age. Data were analyzed using Odds Ratio (OR) with a 95% Confidence Interval (CI) in the Mantel-Haenszel test. If the OR value was > 1 and the p-value was ≤ α (0.05), it meant that the factor increased the risk. Factors include educational background (OR=1.963; p=0.120), employment status (OR=3.077; p=0.01), marital status (OR=2.870; p=0.02), alcohol consumption status (OR=4.080; p =0.03), sexual practices history (OR=21.350; p=0.000), condom use behavior (OR=4.389; p=0.007) were risk factors for gonorrhea, where sexual practices history (OR=35.704; p=0.000) stood out as the most dominant risk factor.

The “fight or flight” response requires certain adjustments to be made in order to ensure the individual’s safety. There is a possibility that certain stress-related responses can lead to endocrine illnesses such as Graves’ disease, gonadal dysfunction, psychosexual dwarfism, and obesity. Furthermore, stress has the potential to alter the clinical status of a wide variety of preexisting endocrine illnesses, such as contributing to the onset of adrenal crisis and thyroid storm. Significant consequences of stress include changes in behavior and systemic alterations, as well as changes in cellular mechanisms, hormonal , and brain stimulation. These changes can be observed at all levels, including cellular mechanisms, hormonal changes, and brain stimulation.

Discuss: AVMs was previously considered a congenital malformation with risk of bleeding in anomalous tissue or nidus occurring within the brain parenchyma. Rupture of the artery and discharge into the subarachnoid space causes a sudden increase in ICP, cerebral vascular vasospasm resulting in global and focal brain dysfunction.
