ABSTRACT This research has been conducted to determine the effect of “social and independent living skills, the community re-entry program” implemented in schizophrenic patients on the functionalities and medication compliance. The research sample included 30 patients with schizophrenia. After evaluating the patients with questionnaires, the FROGS (Functional Remission of General Schizophrenia) Scale, Morisky Compliance Scale and Drug Attitude Inventory, the “Social and Independent Living Skills, The Community Re-entry Program” (SILSCRP) has been applied, and the same tests have been reapplied after the 6th month of the training to the patients who had been followed up by monthly phone calls. Evaluating the average scores of the functional recovery scale and its subscales in schizophrenia patients, it has been found that the overall total score was 52.1 and the Social Functioning Subscale total score was 19.6, respectively. It has been determined in the paper that the SILSCRP training given to the patients with schizophrenia has affected the functionalities and the medication compliance of the patients positively. The SILSCRP training program has increased the functionalities and medication compliance of the patients with schizophrenia. Training and rehabilitation in the chronic mental disorders should be prominent in our country.

ABSTRACT The current study intends to explore the mediating role of coping strategies in the stress-hardiness relationship among rescue workers of Gujrat. A sample of 151 rescue workers was taken from Gujrat by using the convenience sampling technique. Personal Views Survey III-R (PVSIII-R) by Maddi (2001), Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) by Cohen (1994) and Brief Cope Inventory (BCI) by Carver (1997) were individually administered to the participants to investigate the hardiness, stress and coping strategies, respectively. Findings of Pearson Product Moment Correlation indicated significant negative correlations among stress and hardiness, stress and problem-focused coping, and positive relationship between stress and avoidant coping. Mediation analysis revealed that coping plays a mediating role between stress and hardiness. These findings hold implications for rescue workers so that they can increase levels of hardiness and ameliorate the usage of effective coping strategies to cope with stressful situations.

ABSTRACT Young people with no or insufficient knowledge about sexually transmitted diseases are at a risk for these diseases. This study was performed with the aim of identifying knowledge level of first grade students in university about sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Universe of this cross-sectional and descriptive study was composed of 283 first grade students. For obtaining data, general information form and Knowledge Test of Sexually Transmitted Diseases, which is composed of 36 questions, developed in Canada and translated to the Turkish, were used. Mean knowledge level of students was 18.37±6.87. According to the cases, conditions causing highest risk of STDs were unprotected sex (72.8%) and presence of multiple partners (61.8%). Knowledge about STDs showed significant difference according to the age, educational status and faculty (p<0.05). Regular education about STD for improving knowledge level of students is suggested.

ABSTRACT Advertisements are placed in newspapers by people identifying themselves as “doctors” or “healers” in South Africa. This paper aims to identify what services are advertised, who offers these services, and the methods used to diagnose and treat these conditions. Adverts were randomly collected from a free community newspaper and analyzed by two independent coders using thematic data analysis. The results indicate that services were offered for various conditions such as relationship issues, the resolution of financial problems, winning lotteries, getting jobs or promotions, the removal of bewitchment, and help with medical and legal problems. Various treatments are also advertised. Findings are conceptualized within a South African indigenous belief system, which attributes causality of ill-health or misfortune to bewitchment and healing through traditional practices. It is recommended that “Western” trained healthcare providers be aware of the availability of these services and their use by “Westernized” or globalized Africans for problem resolution.

ABSTRACT This study was planned in order to investigate the protective effect of prolonged quercetin supplement on oxidative stress and antioxidant enzyme activities in boxers. It included 20 voluntary male boxers. The athletes were separated into two groups as the control group (n = 10) and Quercetin group (n = 10). The athletes were supplemented with 500 mg quercetin for 30 days before their exercise programs. Blood samples were drawn from the athletes before and after exercising. MDA, SOD, CAT and GSH analysis were performed. According to the findings, there were an increase in the MDA levels of the control group (P<0.01) and a significant decrease in the MDA levels of quercetin group (P<0.001) when they were compared after being given quercetin. The levels of antioxidant enzymes SOD, CAT and GSH significantly increased in quercetin group (P<0.001). As a conclusion; it can be said that quercetin supplement has protective effect against oxidative stress by decreasing the amount of MDA, which is the end-product of lipid peroxidation and increasing the activity levels of the antioxidant enzymes SOD, CAT and GSH.

ABSTRACT The present study was conducted on 120 pregnant women attending the OPD of two government hospitals in Nainital with the objective to analyze the utilization of medical facilities by pregnant women. Questionnaire cum interview method was used for data collection. Results of the study showed that both government hospitals needed to be strengthened in terms of medical staff, infrastructure and equipments and techniques. It was observed that at GBPH there was only one doctor to take care of the women. The same hospital did not have adequate stock of medicines and lagged behind technologically. Results indicate towards a lower utilization of health care facilities such as 108 ambulance facility and aganwadi services among women respondents. Almost half the respondents were not aware of the benefits of Janani Suraksha Yojana. The study suggests need to increase awareness on reproductive health issues of women and popularization of government schemes.

ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper was to determine the use of herbal remedies and supplementary products among chronic disease patients in Vietnam. A cross-sectional study was conducted in a health care setting using a random sample of 1601 adult patients (Mean age: 50.5 years, SD=22.7). From the total sample 43.6 percent indicated that they had been using herbal home remedies. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, older age, urban residence, having medium income, not engaging in problem drinking, having three or more chronic conditions, low drug medication adherence and poor health status was associated with herbal home remedy use. Commonly used herbal remedies included Curcumin, Gynostemma pentaphyllum, Ganoderma lucidum, Aloe Vera, Artichoke, Globe artichoke Cynara scolymus L.,1753,– Asteraceae and Styphnolobium japonicum. This paper confirms a high prevalence and a wide variety of herbal remedy use.

ABSTRACT This paper proposes an analysis model for a Generalized Gamma distribution, data is distributed based on the Generalized Linear Mixed Models. The authors estimate the parameters, construct the score test as well as the shrinkage estimation, and explore how to deal with the medical service assessment. The recovery curves are obtained with dynamic investigation data from the US Shriners Hospitals and achieved medical service assessment in the empirical analysis. The recovery curve can explore the recovery of the burned children visually and comprehensively. With this model it is easy to give a comprehensive assessment on burn recovery from different aspects such as physics, social psychology, and so on. The method proposed in this paper is also available in the comprehensive assessment which is generally used in a social research.

ABSTRACT This study considers impact of game actions and flexibility on lower extremity joint-gap. Conventional approach to physical training and sports applications, game and flexibility methods is used. The researchers had district Kocaeli Province, Izmit Fizomer Physics Treatment and Rehabilitation Medical Center for Spastic type stored in diagnosing cerebral palsy with 10 children for 16 weeks, treatment centre was perfect for the training days and families with permission came out of treatment sessions. A physiotherapist had a session of 20 minutes, 30 minutes flexibility with each individual, moving from one child to the other, using a conventional approach and lower extremity games. The joint width measurement data collection tool, with Universal Goniometer Kendall McCreary rating system was used. Wilcoxon test was used to assess data. In conclusion, (p> 0.05) significance was found in right hip flexion and extension, left hip flexion and extension and left knee flexion and extension. However, there was no significance found in the right knee flexion and extension (p> 0.05). Positive effects were seen as a result of applying the program on joint range of motion. Therefore, in addition to physical treatment given to the children, special rehabilitation education and game lesson module in rehabilitation institutions are recommended.

ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper was to evaluate the effect of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) application after the contusion muscle injury. In the study, New Zealand type rabbits were placed into a trauma model. The rabbits were divided into three groups. In the 1st group PRP was applied just after the trauma, in the 2nd group PRP was applied one day after the trauma and in the 3rd group PRP was not applied. Fibrosis decreased in the groups in which PRP was applied in the first day or in the first hour but fibrosis increased in the control group steadily. Dystrophic calcification developed less in the group in which PRP was applied in the first hour compared with t he control group. It is concluded that particularly with its effect on dystrophic calcification, PRP may reduce the possibility of re-injuries and and help athletes in terms of returning to sports more quickly.
