Background: Despite significant progress, cardiac arrest with no warning (SCA) remains a primary cause of mortality in many regions of the world. SCA can occur due to a variety of causes (cardiac/non-cardiac), situations (witnessed/unwitnessed), and locations (out of hospital or in-hospital). Objective: This paper aims to evaluate of the results of cardiopulmonary resuscitation in Iraqi patients. Patients and methods: This paper was presented as a cross-sectional study of the evaluation of the results of cardiopulmonary resuscitation in Iraqi patients, where it covered cardiopulmonary patients in different hospitals in Iraq from 24th January 2021 to 15th August 2022. Cardiac arrest was characterized as an unresponsive adult patient who is either not breathing properly or is not breathing at all, with no carotid pulse or evidence of circulation. This study was including patients who have ages above 50 to 80 years for 62 cases patients. The methodology process of collected data were analysed and implemented by SPSS. Results and discussion: The purpose of this study was to see how several situations affected the success rate of CPR. As previously stated, CPR outcomes were notably ineffective in those with hypertension, diabetes, as well as heart and renal disorders. Survival following resuscitation can be influenced by factors such as the procedure's quality and urgency, the treatment team's expertise, the patient's age, underlying condition, and individual characteristics. The first identified cardiac rhythm failed to substantially correlate with the CPR success rate, as noted in the findings section. However, the greatest rate of success was found in VF as well as VT, PEA, as well as ASYSTOLE rhythms, respectively. According to 2018 research, CPR has a 29% 30-day survival rate. It went on to indicate that 45% of those with a favourable resuscitation result had VF and VT as their first cardiac rhythm; 40% exhibited a PEA rhythm, whereas 15% did not have a rhythm. Similarly, in the current study, the success rate for CPR was about 41% in participants who’s first identified cardiac rhythm following monitoring was VF and VT. Conclusions: The present study is a follow-up epidemiological inquiry into cardiac arrest in this hospital, and it has indicated that previous medical histories were an important factor in CPR results. Furthermore, persons who do not have the underlying condition have a far better probability of surviving. In conclusion, we found that a considerable majority of patients who suffered in-hospital cardiac arrest had poor outcomes. These are caused by the presence in comorbidities.

Information technology (IT) is vital in managing data for effective and timely decision-making. IT also allows the sharing of data and information more securely and efficiently. Since the coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) has caused a significant impact on the way people perform tasks and processes in the "new normal," IT solutions have become key to continuing performing and administering different tasks and activities. Information technology applications ensure the safety of every individual in a community through an electronic process that replaces the manual activities of recording and sharing data. This study aimed to design and develop an information technology-based application called MediCord: A Web-Based Health Record Management System. Developmental research was utilized in this study. MediCord has been developed for a health center in one of the municipalities in Nueva Ecija, Philippines. Results showed that proponents successfully designed and developed the system by following the software development life cycle (SDLC) stages. Furthermore, following the SDLC has allowed the proponents to develop several diagrams that have served as vital tools for project construction. Proponents suggested that after the design and development of the system, the remaining stages of SDLC be conducted, and the actual assessment of the project be based on industry-accepted and widely used appropriate standards. This opens opportunities for future studies as a result of the current project.

Anemia has been identified as a serious public health problem in both developed and developing countries, affecting around 2 billion people and accounting for threequarters of a million fatalities per year in Africa and Southeast Asia. Anemia in pregnancy is common, according to research from around the world. The purpose of this study was to determine the level of awareness, causes, and prevention of anemia in pregnancy among pregnant mothers attending Asogbon PHC Bariga in Lagos State, Nigeria. A well-structured questionnaire was used for data collection. The respondents were given a questionnaire. One hundred and nine (109) questionnaires were distributed, collected, and analyzed by respondents. The study's data was examined and processed with the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) V21. To assess participant characteristics and offer responses to the study's research questions, descriptive analysis, frequency, average, and percentage were employed. The study discovered that knowledge about anemia signs, vulnerability, food, and prenatal visits was good, but information about causes and perceived effects of anemia was inadequate. According to the findings, the most common known cause of the condition is a poor diet, followed by malaria, worm infestations, and other factors. Despite widespread recognition that poor diet is the leading cause of anemia in pregnancy, there is little information about food sources that can assist in combating the disease. Also, less than half of those who profess knowledge of anemia-fighting foods eat them throughout pregnancy. The study found that the pregnant women were of reproductive age and had completed secondary and higher secondary school. The study revealed that while there was good awareness and prevention of anemia in pregnancy, To obtain a better feto-maternal outcome in pregnancy, there is a need to raise awareness about anemia in pregnancy and implement effective health education programs on anemia prevention.

World Health Organization defined “Health refers to be complete social wellbeing of an individual”. If we see in every society, women’s maternal and reproductive health is always a matter of concern. The factors that are more important for women’s health are nutritional status, education, age, social status, and geographical location. History revealed that there is a political disturbance in the union territory of Jammu and Kashmir since the partition between the two nations India and Pakistan in 1947, which impacts the lives of people residing there. In the case of women (who) are sensitive at one end and their health is affected by these circumstances. To acquaint the civil right of all individuals is said to as gender equality. Particularly, in remote border areas of Jammu and Kashmir women’s concerning a lot of suffering and challenges regarding health. Overall, they are disadvantaged in all spheres and become prone to any change. However, they are not getting proper health care in specific. Almost they are under restrictions and not allowed to make social interactions. There is no sign of mobility has been observed concerning their socioeconomic conditions. Although there is a dearth of proper health infrastructure and there is no evidence of primary health care centers. Nevertheless, structural, and contextual circumstances signify a major role to decide the health of women such as early marriages, malnutrition, anaemia, reproductive, and oral health issues, and psychological problems, which this all-lead fuel to women’s woe. Admittedly, it is to be said that due to all these challenges women are at risk of morbidity and mortality. It is reported that in the border regions there is a high rate of maternal mortality. To maintain the authenticity of my objective, I explore literature related to maternal and reproductive health and the impact of turmoil on the socio-economic life of women. This work is based on secondary sources and primarily addresses the issues of women’s health in the border areas in Jammu and Kashmir. Secondary information has also been collected from various sources such as Books, Reports, Journals, Articles, Census, and Online sources. Articles reviewed for this paper revealed the deteriorating condition of border areas of Jammu and Kashmir and how women are living under deprivation. The paper put forth recommendations to ensure that there should be civil rights for every female and inclusion in every institution which make them empowered and provide a better direction for improving the health of women.

Diabetes is a chronic non-communicable disease that has become a significant public health issue for decades globally. Diabetes can slowly destroy the human body from head to leg if not appropriately treated and managed through medication, diet, and physical activities. The pancreas fails to secrete insulin or enough insulin in type-1 diabetes, while the organ secretes the same hormone sufficiently, but the body cannot process it properly in type 2. In this article, the focussed area is type-1 diabetes which is most prevalent among children and adolescents. The article tried to link up with Industry 4.0, which is a great blessing for all of us. Industries got machine learning and other applications that can help predict, analyze, assess, and intervene in diabetes and other deadly diseases. The data on type-1 diabetes can be collected from private and public settings for exploratory data analysis (EDA) followed by model selections (4ML models and Saving models). Different machine learning algorithms are usually employed for classification, prediction, and detection despite fluctuating blood sugar records. Various studies showed that an Artificial neural network (ANN) would be the best choice for these needful actions having a 34% rate of applications. In addition to these applications, calorie (diet and exercises) assessments can be done much more precisely. In conclusion, learning of machine learning has now become mandatory not only for data science people but also for physicians, dietitians, and healthcare researchers.

The goal of an expert system is to transfer human knowledge to the computer so that it can tackle problems that are typically handled by experts. The goal of a medical expert system is to assist doctors in making diagnoses. To provide a diagnosis, it takes into account both facts and symptoms. This suggests that a medical expert system makes a diagnosis based on information about the patient and knowledge of the diseases. The purpose of this study is to develop a forward chaining expert system prototype for diagnosing diseases associated with MonkeyPox outbreaks. The system is developed using SWI Prolog, represented using decision tree and offer guidance to patients and experts.

The demand for university education has led to an increase in the students’ population especially in the Nigerian public universities. This comes with intense pressure on the bearing capacity of available school infrastructure. This study was designed to investigate the effects of overcrowding on the female students living in the University of Calabar Hostel, Cross River State, Nigeria. A sample of 276 out of the 892 students living in the university was drawn for the study using the simple random sampling technique based on Taro Yamane’s (1967) formula for the finite population. A 14 item structured questionnaire with a four-point Likert rating scale was adopted. Data generated from the administration of the questionnaire were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Descriptively, tables, chart figures, percentages, average, and frequencies were used. However, Chi-square correlation techniques were employed in testing the study hypotheses. The result of the analysis revealed that the University of Calabar Female Hostel is overcrowded with a significant effect on the physical and health wellbeing of students. The study emphasized building more hostels by the university stakeholders to accommodate the overcrowded students, limiting students allocated to and allowed to share hostel rooms to avoid overutilization of resources, ensuring there is adequate clean water supply to prevent the shortage of water, avoid the incidence of a disease outbreak by implementing biweekly hostel sanitation exercise, and improve the duration of electricity supply in the hostels to enhance good ventilation system.
