Background: Stroke is a major challenge to physicians worldwide, with high incidence, mortality, disability rates, and costs. This study was designed to evaluate the patterns of computed tomography imaging findings in patients diagnosed with cerebrovascular accident in Nigeria. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional retrospective study design was adopted to select 320 patients with stroke who underwent CT imaging at a radiological facility in Ibadan, Nigeria. Data such as CT imaging findings in CVA, age and gender of the patients were collected from the CT radiological reports archive for cases done from January 2023 to October 2023. Results: Males were highest 208(65%) and the majority 104(32%) were within the age group of 60-69years. Based on CT findings, the majority 180(56.3%) was haemorrhage and the least 20 (6.3%) was transient ischemic attack. Out of 120 cases of infarcts, 27 (22.5%) were female and males were 110 (61.1%) out of 180 cases of haemorrhagic CVA. Conclusion: Male preponderance was noted in this study. Older adults were commonly affected and haemorrhagic CVA was the commonest CT imaging finding. Improving access to health care for males, and increasing screening and early detection of CVA, could also help to reduce the gender disparity.

Stress in college students represents a growing concern, given its wide-ranging impact on emotional, psychological, physical, and academic well-being. This article highlights the critical importance of adopting comprehensive approaches to student support, ranging from counseling services and stress management workshops to physical activity and healthy nutrition programs. It highlights the need to strengthen academic skills through effective study techniques and time management to counteract the negative impacts of stress on academic performance. The analysis reveals how stress can induce a negative feedback loop that impairs academic performance and increases stress, highlighting the need for early interventions and supportive resources. In addition, the vital role of the university community in fostering an environment that promotes overall well-being through open communication and mutual support is emphasized. Collaboration among faculty, staff, and students is essential to developing a culture of caring that prioritizes student wellness as fundamental to educational and personal success, making a significant difference in mitigating the effects of stress.

Violence against women is an obstacle to achieving equality, equity, development, peace and social participation. It is multidimensional so its response must be global, systemic and holistic from prevention, assistance and protection to recovery. A descriptive, prospective, cross-sectional research was designed in the period from January to December 2023, in Villa 1 Popular Zone, in Consolation del Sur Municipality, Pinar del Río Province, where a group of women victims has been identified of domestic violence. The general objective was aimed at analyzing the perception that women who are victims of domestic violence have about the suffered violence. The population was made up of 40 women who demanded specialized care, to which an anonymous psychosocial survey was applied. Data analysis was performed using the SPSS statistical package. Outstanding results were obtained such as: in the studied women, young adults predominated, with partners, a high level of education, with or without a work relationship, from the urban area, the nuclear family predominated, being the aggressor the current partner, jealousy was the cause of abuse and its obvious link to alcohol. The most frequent type of violence was psychological or emotional. It reacts with more violence in the response of the victims, it was related to ingestion of alcoholic beverages and they told her that they should report and seek help. A Community Intervention Program is proposed.
暴力侵害妇女行为是实现平等、公平、发展、和平和社会参与的障碍。它涉及多个层面,因此,从预防、援助和保护到恢复,其应对措施必须是全球性、系统性和整体性的。在 2023 年 1 月至 12 月期间,在比那尔德里奥省 Consolation del Sur 市的 Villa 1 人民区开展了一项描述性、前瞻性和横断面研究,在那里发现了一群家庭暴力受害妇女。总体目标是分析家庭暴力受害妇女对遭受暴力的看法。调查对象包括 40 名需要专门护理的妇女,并对她们进行了匿名社会心理调查。数据分析使用 SPSS 统计软件包进行。结果显示:被调查的妇女中,青壮年居多,有伴侣,受教育程度较高,有或没有工作关系,来自城市地区,核心家庭居多,施暴者是现任伴侣,嫉妒是施暴的原因,并且与酒精有明显的联系。最常见的暴力类型是心理或情感暴力。受害者的反应更加暴力,这与摄入酒精饮料有关,他们告诉她应该报告并寻求帮助。建议实施社区干预方案。

Augmented reality (AR) has become a popular multidisciplinary research field in recent decades. Augmented reality adds to the subject's real-world sensory information through computer-generated sound, text, and graphics that are projected into the user's natural visual and auditory fields to provide a real-time interactive experience in a common environment. A bibliographic review was carried out with the objective of updating the current state of the use of augmented reality in physical rehabilitation. Augmented reality systems consist of a user interface that offers a motivational component to patients to perform exercises, distracting them from the potential pain they may feel during exercises. Additionally, they can be implemented in the patient's home and eliminate frequent visits to rehabilitation clinics. Among the most used systems are ARS, RehaBio, NeuroR, AR Fruit Ninja, MirrARbilitation, SleeveAR, ARIS and BRU. Its uses have been focused mainly on post-surgical orthopedic and neurological rehabilitation in patients with strokes. Augmented reality offers significant benefits over in-person rehabilitation and other technologies such as virtual reality, which can speed up the recovery process and improve patients' quality of life

Healthy eating habits and lifestyle modifications play a vital role in the treatment and control of high blood pressure. Objective: Evaluate community intervention to modify the knowledge of bad eating habits in the hypertensive population of office 149 of the Hermanos Cruz Polyclinic in the period 2021-2023. Material and method: An action research was carried out with the purpose of modifying the knowledge of the bad eating habits of the hypertensive population in office 149 of the Hermanos Cruz Polyclinic, from September 2021 to June 2023. The universe was made up of 128 hypertensive patients, adults, from the medical office under study. The sample was made up of 125 patients. Results: The age group of 40-49 years predominated with 32%. Regarding nutritional status, a predominance of overweight and normal weight patients was demonstrated. Inadequate sodium intake also played a leading role. A community intervention was applied that decreased patients with inadequate sodium intake, increased normal weight, and increased the level of knowledge about high blood pressure. Conclusions: community intervention decreased risk factors in hypertensive patients
