The significance of this study lies in the unique nature of the target sample, which comprises students from various disciplines and represents a crucial segment and the future foundation of society. To conduct the study, a stratified random sample was selected from three specified universities, with a sampling percentage of 0.05. The study sample consisted of 1060 male and female students. The researcher utilized a self-designed psychological resilience scale to collect data. The obtained data was then analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software, employing statistical techniques such as the Pearson correlation coefficient, Alpha-Cronbach coefficient, one-sample t-test, two-independent samples t-test, and one-way analysis of variance. The results indicated a high level of psychological resilience among university students, as reflected in the total score of the resilience scale. Furthermore, statistically significant differences were observed between male and female students regarding their average resilience scores, with males showing higher levels of psychological resilience. However, no significant differences were found between genders in terms of self-efficacy and optimism dimensions on the psychological resilience scale. Moreover, the study revealed no statistically significant differences in the level of psychological resilience among students from different specializations or study levels. The findings contribute to a better understanding of the psychological well-being of this important segment of society, which can inform the development of targeted interventions and support systems to enhance the resilience and overall mental health of university students.","PeriodicalId":508733,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Medical and Health Sciences","volume":"44 35","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139961736","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}

Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) were developed to target this oncogene. Dasatinib, a TKI, has rarely been associated with spontaneous chylothorax. The majority occur within 1 year of dasatinib initiation and resolve after drug cessation. In contrast, we present a patient with CML on dasatinib therapy for 8 years who developed recurrent unilateral chylothorax even after cessation of dasatinib.\u0000Case: A 57-year-old male with a history of CML on dasatinib therapy presented to the hospital for nausea and vomiting. A computed tomographic scan revealed a large right-sided pleural effusion with thoracentesis yielding 1.5 liters of chylous fluid. The patient’s hospital course was complicated by intracranial hemorrhage and subsequent admission to the intensive care unit. Dasatinib was stopped during this time. The patient experienced multiple recurrences of this effusion with significant output via thoracentesis and chest tube despite dietary changes. Lymphangiography was performed but revealed no evidence of thoracic duct leakage.\u0000Conclusions: Chylothorax from dasatinib is rare, usually occurs within 1 to 2 years of treatment onset, and resolves with discontinuation. However as supported by this case and others, it may occur as late as 8 years from treatment onset and chylothorax may continually re-accumulate or persist up to 1 year from dasatinib cessation. It is imperative to rule out underlying thoracic duct disruption prior to attributing etiology to dasatinib as a misdiagnosis may result in treatment delays.","PeriodicalId":508733,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Medical and Health Sciences","volume":" 62","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139788947","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}

A total of 182 pregnant women, consisting of 91 women with PE (gestation > 20 weeks, blood pressure ≥ 140/90 mmHg) and 91 normotensive pregnant women at gestation > 20 weeks were enrolled in the study by consent.

Data was grouped into PE cases and control. Chi-square was used to determine associations between PE and sociodemographic variables for categorical data, whereas the independent T-test was used to determine differences between groups for parametric data.

After obtaining the written informed consent, data was collected using face-to-face interviews with a pre-tested, semistructured, interviewer-administered questionnaire from December 2021 to January 2022. Frequency and proportion described the variables.\u0000Result: The mean age of the participants was 28.8 years. Female individuals constituted the majority, accounting for 69.2% of the total. Approximately 69.8% of individuals reported experiencing occupational health hazards. Psychological hazards were the most frequently reported (56.1%), followed by workplace-acquired health hazards (15.7%) and physical hazards (13.8%) among all participants. While 79.0% of the participants were aware of workplace health and safety, only 7.9% received safety training, and only 7.5% reported any occupational hazard to the hospital management.\u0000Conclusion: Healthcare personnel adjust to several professional hazards in a complicated series of events, as the study shows. The complexity of the healthcare environment poses considerable psychological and health hazards. Although there is good preparedness and procedure awareness, the analysis shows some crucial resources and training still need to be improved.
