Background: Metabolic syndrome is an asymptomatic disorder and an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Lifestyle modification and self-management of health-promoting behaviors are the most important actions to control metabolic syndrome. This study was done to investigate the effectiveness of self-management interventions based on group Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) on lifestyle among adults with metabolic syndrome. Methods: This research was a randomized clinical trial study. First, 80 adults with metabolic syndrome were selected using the convenience sampling method, and then, using the randomized blockchain method, they were divided into two groups of 40 people (intervention and control groups). Data collection using the Health Promotion Lifestyle Profile II Questionnaire (HPLP II) was performed in two stages before and three months after the intervention. Teaching self-management interventions based on cognitive-behavioral therapy was done twice a week for eight 90-minute sessions. Data were analyzed using the Chi-square test, independent t-tests, and Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA). A P-value less than 0.05 was considered significant. Results: the results of ANCOVA showed that self-management intervention based on group CBT had a significant effect on the dimensions of lifestyle, including exercise and physical activity with an effect size of 0.51, nutrition with 0.49, health responsibility with 0.39, and stress management with 0.32 (P<0.05), but it did not significantly affect the two dimensions of self-actualization and spiritual growth (effect size= 0.003, P=0.669) and interpersonal relationships (effect size= 0.029, P=0.151). Conclusion: Self-management interventions based on group CBT can improve lifestyle and some dimensions in adults with metabolic syndrome. Identifying people with metabolic syndrome and performing effective interventions with the active participation of the individual through self-management based on cognitive-behavioral therapy seem necessary.

The study was conducted to compare between Modern and Traditional fast foods in terms of consumption, and to evaluate the calorific value of the most preferred Modern and Traditional fast foods. This study included 400 participants randomly selected from individuals attending fast foods restaurants, parks, and malls from 21 regions in Benghazi city. Questionnaires were used to collect data among the study population; the questioners were filled by the investigator. From five different restaurants, ten types of fast foods (sandwiches) were collected; five traditional and five modern fast foods. The results shows that the majority of participants were young people especially those under forty years of age, mostly men and the predominant categories were students and employees. Most of participants consume fast foods on a daily basis especially at dinner and lunch, they preferred both modern and traditional fast foods, and more preferable to sandwiches than meals. Modern fast food samples were higher in terms of total caloric content than traditional fast food samples, which mainly came from its higher fat content and serving size. This study indicated that fast foods consumption were a growing phenomenon among consumers in Benghazi city and revealed that fast food is a concentrated source of energy which simply means “an empty caloric food”.

Balance is defined as the dynamic process by which the position of the body is maintained in equilibrium. As age increases balance decreases that lead to falls. To improve the balance, land, and pool therapies are used. Studies have shown that land-based exercises improve joint flexibility, muscle strength, balance, and reaction time in an older population. The physical properties of water are an effective rehabilitation program. Water-based exercises provide a viable alternative for the elderly who are unable to participate in land-based exercise programs as water exercise has reduced the risk of falls. The objective of the study is to compare the effect of pool therapy and land therapy on balance in the elderly population. The Study methodology: Quasi-experimental study.30 elderly people between 60-75 years (both male and female) were included in the study based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Tinetti falls efficacy scale questionnaire was given to the subjects and they were asked to fill it and then a timed up and go test was done before and after the exercise protocol. The 30 individuals were divided into 2 groups of 15 members each (Group A and Group B). Group A was given pool therapy and Group B was given land-based therapy for 6 weeks. The results of statistical analysis showed a significant difference between land therapy and pool therapy. This study concludes that pool therapy is more effective in improving balance in the elderly population.

Uterine leiomyosarcoma (ULMS) is a rare cancer that originates from the smooth muscle of the uterine wall. ULMS is aggressive with a high rate of recurrence and mortality. Although the majority of ULMS are initially diagnosed within the uterus, they possess a high metastatic potential. Two thirds of metastatic ULMS sites involve the lung. However, the clinical presentations of such metastases are surprisingly not well described. In this case, we describe a case of a woman in her forties who presented with 6 months of worsening dyspnea and chronic cough. Her pulmonary function test demonstrated severe restrictive lung disease. Computed tomography (CT) of the chest was done which showed multiple pulmonary nodules. CT abdomen and pelvis identified multiple uterine masses with largest being 17 cm. Biopsy of uterine masses confirmed the diagnosis of UMLS. Her restrictive lung disease was diagnosed to be secondary to UMLS, as patient had no other identifiable risk factors.

The study assessed the association between long-term alcohol consumption and risk of dementia in a panel study of 177 countries from 2000 to 2009. The study used econometric techniques to analyze the association between long-term alcohol consumption and risk of dementia. However, it employed the ordinary least square regression method and the fully modified ordinary least square regression method for robust inference. The study found that alcohol consumption is heterogeneously associated with dementia regarding the associated risk factors such as alcoholic disorder, anxiety disorder, depression disorder, bipolar disorder, and Schizophrenia. Moreover, some contributing factors such as age, eating disorder, smoking, and educational level play a significant role in attributing to dementia with the risk factor. However, it is recommended that alcohol consumption be reasonably taken to avoid its consequences. More specifically, ethanol is neurotoxic, crosses the blood-brain barrier to enter neurons directly, and can cause pathological processes leading to brain damage in high concentrations and its metabolite acetaldehyde. This study uses an econometric methodology to assess the association between long-term alcohol consumption and risk of dementia in a panel study. The study found that alcohol consumption is heterogeneously associated with dementia regarding the associated risk factors such as alcoholic disorder, anxiety disorder, depression disorder, bipolar disorder, and Schizophrenia.

The effects of relative humidity (RH) and temperature on conidial Germination of E. cichoracearum were studied in controlled environments to define conditions that affect the disease development of cucumbers in AL.Gabel, AL-Akhder region. Libya. Gradients of RH (20–90%) at constant temperatures (20–30°C) were generated in single growth chambers to determine their effect on mildew development on mature cucumber plants, temperature from 5 to 35 are evaluated their effect of Temperatures of 30°C and above were deleterious for spore germination, germ tube elongation, and disease development Lesion growth and rate of disease progression were significantly higher at 20°C than at 25°C. Low RH levels (20–40%) reduced spore germination and lesion growth, accelerated host tissue death, and reduced disease progress. Intermediate RH levels (50–70%) increased spore germination and optimized disease development, provided temperatures were maintained within favorable limits. High RH levels (80–90%) were favorable for spore germination but continued exposure to these conditions led to a limited lesion growth and disease progress. Short daily periods (two or three daily exposures of at least 2 h) of high temperatures (35°C) suppressed disease development by 70–92%.

Diabetes is a real threat to health globally. It neither sees socioeconomic status nor the boundaries. There are now studies that show, at least in short term, that diabetes can be reversed. Various forms of the standard of care are available but suitability differs. Patients would surely choose reversal of their disease if given a choice. The choice can only be given if physicians are not only aware that reversal of diabetes is possible but also need to educate their patients and discuss with them various possibilities and modes of treatment. We here discuss various approaches and studies that prove that diabetes can be reversed and to what extent it is possible to reverse, the real truth about the reversal of diabetes. Apart from these approaches, further research in understanding the mechanism of diabetes reversibility and its overlapping mechanism and pathways that are lacking need to be focussed and emphasized in the future.
