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...

Occipital Dermal Sinus Tract Causing Craniospinal Infection: A Review | Chapter 13 | New Visions in Medicine and Medical Science Vol. 4

  Dermal sinus is a rare congenital condition characterized by a pathological tract connecting the skin to deeper tissues of the central nervous system, potentially leading to severe infectious complications. It arises from a failure in the separation of ectodermal layers during early gestation. Diagnosing dermal sinus tract in newborns requires a careful physical examination, focusing on midline dimples in the occipital region associated with cutaneous abnormalities like hairy nevus or hyperpigmentation. The presence of drainage, abnormal hair distribution, or localized swelling may indicate a sinus tract. Regular examination for dimples or sinuses is recommended for infants and children with recurrent meningitis or infections. Early detection is crucial to prevent severe complications like meningitis, with Staphylococcus aureus being a common causative organism. Neuroradiological studies, including computed tomography (CT) scan and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with histopath...

Alkali Element Modification of Glucose Molecules as a Method to Dissolve Cancer Cells | Chapter 12 | New Visions in Medicine and Medical Science Vol. 4

  The present study highlights about alkali element modification of glucose molecules as a method to dissolve cancer cells. The central regulation of the mechanisms governing cell proliferation has little effect on cancer cells. Cancer cells are entirely independent of the central command and divide and proliferate on their own, making it challenging to activate their response mechanism. Precisely, this is the reason why they are at risk to the health of humans and/or any biological entities. Instead of trying to reconnect the central command of the growth control mechanism to cancer cells that are already out of the range, we present a method of using the cancer cell’s own irresponsive and uncontrolled growth mechanism to their disadvantage and destroy the cancer cells. We found that this is achievable in an atomic/molecular level study of the glucose molecule, which is the primary food source used for growth and energy generation by all cells in the body, including the cancer cel...
