Decentralizing cancer care in sub-Saharan Africa through an integrated regional cancer centre model: The case of Kenya
This study aimed to analyze the status of the utilization of services at regional cancer centers. We analyzed data from the district health information system, focusing on patient demographics, visit type, cancer stage, and the type of treatment provided. For comparison, a trend analysis of new cancer cases recorded at the main national referral hospital between 2011-2021 was also conducted. We conducted a descriptive analysis of the variables of interest; the median was used to summarize continuous variables and percentages were used for categorical variables. A total of 29,321 patients visited the regional centers in 202...

Is cervical dysplasia a major concern in women with inflammatory bowel disease? A Spanish retrospective study
Rev Esp Enferm Dig. 2023 Sep 21. doi: 10.17235/reed.2023.9890/2023. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCervical cancer (CC) is the fourth most common cancer affecting women worldwide. The risk of women immunosuppressed due to AIDS or organ transplantation is well documented, as most cases are caused by persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and immunosuppression can prevent clearing HPV. Although European guidelines advise that inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) women under immunosuppression should be screened for CC as regularly as high-risk patients, quality evidence is lacking in our country. We performed a retrospect...

Task Force for a rapid response to an outbreak of severe acute hepatitis of unknown aetiology in children in Portugal in 2022
Euro Surveill. 2023 Sep;28(38). doi: 10.2807/1560-7917.ES.2023.28.38.2300171.ABSTRACTOn 5 April 2022, the United Kingdom reported an increase of cases of severe acute hepatitis of unknown aetiology in children, several needing hospitalisation and some required liver transplant or died. Thereafter, 35 countries reported probable cases, almost half of them in Europe. Facing the alert, on 28 April, Portugal created a multidisciplinary Task Force (TF) for rapid detection of probable cases and response. The experts of the TF came from various disciplines: clinicians, laboratory experts, epidemiologists, public health experts an...

Antivenom for sale? Availability and affordability of snakebite medicines across public and private health facilities in Rwanda
Toxicon. 2023 Sep 19:107292. doi: 10.1016/j.toxicon.2023.107292. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAntivenom is considered the safest and most effective treatment against snake envenomation (SBE); however, global shortages mean that many low-income countries struggle to meet demand. In Rwanda, chronic shortages of essential medicines are an important barrier to robust healthcare delivery and discourage snakebite victims from seeking hospital care. The aim of this retrospective, cross-sectional study was to evaluate the availability and affordability of commodities to treat SBE at hospitals and health centers. In total, our tea...

Prevalence of Type III Secretion System (T3SS) and Biofilm Development in Genetically Heterogeneous Clinical Isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa from Nigeria
This study examined 430 clinical isolates from our previous work, comprising 181 MDR (multidrug-resistant) and 249 non-MDR isolates. Biofilm production and type III secretion toxins were determined using colorimetric microtiter plate assay and polymerase chain reaction, respectively. Carbapenem-resistant isolates were typed using REP-PCR and BOX-PCR. Biofilm production was detected in 386/430 (89.8%) of the isolates. Out of 386 biofilm producers, 167 (43.3%) were multidrug-resistant isolates. PCR identified four T3SS virulence types among 430 isolates, including 78 (18.1%) exoU+/exoS- isolates, 343 (79.8%) exoU-/exoS + iso...

Effects of low concentrations of ozone gas exposure on percutaneous oxygen saturation and inflammatory responses in a mouse model of Dermatophagoides farinae-induced asthma
Arch Toxicol. 2023 Sep 21. doi: 10.1007/s00204-023-03593-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOzone gas is widely used in hospitals as well as homes to control COVID-19 infection owing to its cost-effectiveness. Safety standard value and the tolerable value of ozone gas are set at 0.05 ppm and 0.1 ppm, respectively, in developed countries; however, this value was principally determined for healthy individuals, and the risks associated with ozone gas inhalation in patients with pulmonary diseases remains unknown. Recently, we demonstrated that 0.1 ppm ozone gas exposure significantly aggravates the symptoms of acute lung injury...

How Could Digital Technology Make An Impact On Primary Care?
I truly hope that very soon I do not have to make an appointment at the GP when I suspect signs of a disease, but my GP will send me a message that she spotted something irregular in my latest test results and my digital health data, so I’d better visit. Let me show you in detail how primary care should be carried out in the future!
Digital health should become an organic part of primary care in the future
I live a fairly healthy life. I use data to improve my lifestyle and to make better decisions by optimising my sleep pattern, my physical, my cognitive or my emotional abilities; and I had several genetic tests....

A mathematical approach improves the predictability of length of hospitalization due to oral squamous cell carcinoma: A retrospective investigation of 153 patients
The oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), a common cancer of the head and neck, is a major public health problem. The length of stay in hospital (LOS) of patients with OSCC can range from a few days to several months, which have implications for patient ’s recovery. The aim of the study was to identify and evaluate risk factors that have an impact on the prolongation of inpatient hospital duration. A 4-year retrospective study reviewed hospital records of 153 in-hospital patients with OSCC.A statistical model for discrete time-to-event data with the LOS in hospital measured in days, where the event of interest is discharg...
