Perception of Female Surgical Residents of Their Training in the Examination of Male Genitalia in Makkah Hospitals, KSA | Chapter 11 | New Horizons in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 8

 The purpose of this study is to analyse female surgical residents' perceptions and confidence in clinical examinations of inguinal hernia and intimates of opposite sex in five hospitals in Makkah, Saudi Arabia. The study also aimed to offer light on the challenges and effects of various teaching modes currently in use in undergraduate education. Deficits in the clinical examination abilities of female surgical residents of the male groyne hernia and genitalia have not been addressed or researched in the Arab and Muslim communities, despite apparent cultural constraints and religious traditions. The ethnic backgrounds of the children have also influenced their future education and skills. Many systems' examinations for patients are deemed particularly sensitive to execute by students and experts of both sexes due to their sensitive character.

Methods: A cross-sectional approach was used, with 80 female surgical resident trainees from five hospitals in Makkah, Saudi Arabia, receiving a self-administered questionnaire. The study took place from September 2020 to July 2021, and it included all female surgical residents from level 1 to 5. (R1 to R5).

The findings of our study revealed that the majority of female residents have a negative view of their performance on clinical tests. The gender difference was shown to be the most important factor affecting the female resident's clinical examination of the opposite sex intimate in this investigation. Gender had an impact on 56 (81.2%) of the participants' confidence and skills in examining intimates of the opposite sex, while gender had no impact on 13 (18.8%) of the participants.

Conclusion: In a conservative culture, gender influences medical student clinical learning in a variety of ways, including clinical exposure, supervisor support, patient willingness and permission, and some undergraduate techniques of learning clinical skills that are unrelated to postgraduate needs.

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...
