Determining the Prostate Cancer Road Map Hypothesis in 49 Countries: From Iron-Deficiency Anemia (IDA) to Death | Chapter 14 | New Frontiers in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 9

Background: Deaths due to prostate cancer (PCa) in 2016 had in common iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) in 2000, according to a follow-up analysis of the San Valentino (Italy) screening of cardiovascular illnesses.

Aims: The study compared total mortality for PCa in terms of ASDRs (Age-Standardized-Death Rate x 100000 population) to ASDRs of IDA and diseases that may cause IDA from the year 2000 to ASDRs of IDA and diseases that may cause IDA.

Methods: Researchers looked at the relationship between PCa, IDA, and 16 additional variables that could be linked to IDA in 49 nations. The ASDRs (Age-Standardized Death Rate x 100000 population) were used to extract data from WHO records (2018) in 49 countries for the years 2000, 2010, and 2016. WHO assessed the 49 selected countries (SC) to have "excellent completeness and quality of cause-of-death assignment" and "may be used for priority setting and policy evaluation." PCa, IDA, and 16 diseases: TB, gonorrhoea, syphilis, and chlamydia in females, other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs in both genders), diarrheal diseases, stomach ulcers, cirrhosis, IDA, HIV, digestive diseases, respiratory infections, and alcohol and drug addictions. Cluster analysis, Multivariate analysis, and the Residual Normal Quantile Plot were used to calculate the correlations with PCa.

PCa was found to be associated with IDA, HIV, chlamydia in females, and digestive illnesses. All of the other variables were found to be unrelated. The total ASDRs were greatly improved in terms of mean values (-25 percent ). However, the variations were extremely significant in most of the disorders, implying that averages and percent reductions should be used with caution.

Conclusions: PCa appears to follow a path that includes IDA, immunological depression, and chlamydia infections. Other than gastric ulcers and cirrhosis, digestive diseases are only marginally predictive. A viable approach to guard against PCa is chlamydia vaccine. Long-term prospective research should be evaluated.

Greening Regional Airports: A Vision for Carbon Neutral Infrastructure | Chapter 12 | Contemporary Perspective on Science, Technology and Research Vol. 3

 This study provides an overview of the energy demand of a regional airport, divided into individual time horizons. The electrification of aircraft systems raises the question of whether airports will be among the largest electricity consumers in our infrastructure in the future. Sustainability and especially emission reductions are significant challenges for airports that are currently being addressed. The Clean Sky 2 project GENESIS addresses the environmental sustainability of hybrid-electric 50-passenger aircraft systems in a life cycle perspective to support the development of a technology roadmap for the transition to sustainable and competitive electric aircraft systems. This article originates from the GENESIS research and describes various options for ground power supply at a regional airport. Potential solutions for airport infrastructure with a short (2030), medium (2040), and long (2050) time horizon are proposed. In addition to the environmental and conservation benefi...

Study on Processing Method Influences the Effect of Cassava (Manihot esculenta) Consumption on Blood Lipid Profile in Rats | Chapter 8 | Current Research and Development in Chemistry Vol.1

Cassava is consumed in many tropical countries and is fast becoming the major raw material of many diets, especially in the bakery, brewery and pharmaceutical industries. In a study to determine the effects of various formulations of Cassava feeds on blood lipid profile in rats. Forty adult Wistar rats weighing between 120 and 150 g were divided into 4 groups of 10 rats each. The rats were acclimatized for one week; fed with different formulations of Cassava feeds adlibitum, after which the rats were allotted into groups. Group 1 was fed on Garri; group 2 on Cassava flour; group 3 on Tapioca, and the control group (group 4) on normal chow. After 4 weeks, each animal was anaesthetized by exposure to chloroform vapour and blood samples collected by cardiac puncture. Group 1 diet (Garri) significantly increased HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) concentration and significantly decreased LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) concentration (p<0.05) compared with the control group. In Group 2 (Cassava flour), t...

Ethnopharmacological Survey among Traditional Medicine Practitioners in Abidjan (Côte d'Ivoire) for the Management of Pathologies such as Malaria, ENT Diseases, Diarrhea, Typhoid Fever and Anemia | Chapter 05 | New Horizons in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 8

 Traditional Medicine Practitioners (TMPs) of Côte d'Ivoire are familiar with the therapeutic herbs. Medicinal plants have been shown to be useful in the treatment of common diseases such as malaria (KROA, 2004) and diabetes (N'GUESSAN et al, 2013) in several studies and scientific study. In the Abidjan District, the current policy is to integrate traditional medicine and pharmacopoeia into the national health system in order to improve population health coverage, particularly in the management of commonly encountered diseases such as malaria, ENT diseases, diarrhoea, typhoid fever, and anaemia. This research aims to increase the use of traditional medicine and pharmacopoeia in the national health system. Over the course of three months, fifty (50) PMTs in the District of Abidjan participated in this study. Plant therapists accounted for 30 of the 50 PMTs polled at the end of the study, or 60%. Traditional medicine centres use 61 types of medicinal plants from 36 famili...
