Atrial Septal Defect in a Newborn Holstein Calf by Akbar Nikkhah* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS) We aimed to present a case of atrial septal defect (ASD) in a new-born Holstein calf in a commercial dairy farm in Tehran, Iran. Despite the incidence of some congenital cardiac disorders such as ventricular septal defect (VSD) in young calves, detection of ASD in Holstein calves has been rarely reported with no distinct picture of the area involved. In the current report, ASD is pictured noticeably which would be an appropriate example for diagnosing it in other cases. Apparently, issues related to cardiac system occur more frequently than expected, however, they are not diagnosed precisely on farm mainly because of inadequate knowledge of such disorders. Young dairy calves are often diagnosed with respiratory distress or fever with weakness and hyperpnea. Severe hyperpnea may be associated with heart defects which can be confused with respiratory diseases and fever...

Evaluation of the effect relationship of Genetically Parkinson’s Disease (PD) with Cinnamon in Mice by Ali Ahmadi* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS) Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by the gradual damage and destruction of nerve cells in the black body of Nigra pars compacta (SNc), which leads to impaired movement and is accompanied by tremors, stiff muscles and poor balance. Because PD is a progressive disease, the symptoms start gradually, starting on one side of the body and affecting the other. PD-related disorder and disability require a multidisciplinary approach to effective management to maintain daily activity and life expectancy. It has been shown that cinnamon can play a role in the treatment of this disease. Mehraein et al. In an article measuring the effects of cinnamon on mice with Parkinson’s, cinnamon acts as a powerful free radical scavenger. Cinnamon and its derivatives, cinnamaldehyde act as a powerful antioxida...

Inoculation of Soybeans with mycorrhizal Fungi in the Field of Central Asia by Umarov B* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS) The influence of arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) fungi inoculation on growth performance of legume plants was studied in a greenhouse experiment. The results obtained indicated the dependence of Soybeans on mycorhizal symbiosis. Inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhiza significantly improved the growth performance of Soybean. The height growth increased significantly by 85% after only three months. Shoot production increased by 213% while root biomass increased by 241%. Inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhiza increased plant tissue phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium content. The better growth response of mycorrhizal plants was attributed to improvement in nutrient uptake, especially phosphorous, nitrogen and potassium. Arbuscular mycorrhiza inoculation has a high potential in agriculture as a biofertilizer. https://biomedscis.com/fulltext/inoculation-of-...

Care of A Pregnant Woman Tested Positive for Coronavirus (COVID-19) Based on the Neuman Systems Model: A Case Report by Handan Aydın Kahraman* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS) Nurses play a crucial role in healthcare services and are responsible for providing high-quality care based on theories and models. Numerous models are available for nurses to plan care with. The Neuman systems model approaches the individual from a holistic and systematic perspective and is widely used in the nursing process. In this case study, nursing care based on the Neuman systems model was planned for a patient tested positive for coronavirus (COVID-19), which is a challenge the whole world is facing today. However, it is even riskier for pregnant women. Stressors were determined using the “six basic questions” in the Neuman systems model. Then, appropriate nursing interventions were planned to help the case experience less stress and adapt to the new situation more quickly. Nursing car...

Relationship of Liver Enzyme Levels with the Clinical Course of Covid-19 by Harun Tolga DURAN* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS) Introduction : SARS-CoV-2 / COVID-19 infection, which can affect many systems in the human body, can cause organ dysfunction. High liver serum enzymes can be found in COVID-19 patients, and many factors cause this stop. Patients with high levels of liver enzymes that require invasive mechanical ventilation during their follow-up were examined, and it was aimed to determine whether it was among the predictive indicators of mortality. Materials and Methods : Patients infected with COVID-19 who were hospitalized in the intensive care unit between March 30 and December 1, 2020 according to the criteria of hospitalization in the intensive care unit, clinical trials such as age, gender, length of stay, additional diseases, liver enzyme levels and whether invasive mechanical ventilation is required their characteristics were recorded and analyze...

A Predictive Model of Subjective Well-Being Among Medical and Psychology Students by Leopoldo Daniel-Gonzalez* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS) In recent years, the science of subjective well-being (SWB) has grown significantly. However, the variables that have the greatest impact on this phenomenon are still unknown. From Diener’s SWB theory, the objective of this cross-sectional research was to analyse the relationships between optimism (OP), gratitude (GR), resilience (RE), self-esteem (SE), family support (FS) and friends support (AS) on SWB. Seven scales were applied to 600 Mexican medical and psychology students. Non-probabilistic sampling was used. Structural equations modelling was used to analyse the data. Through maximum likelihood estimation, the model showed a good data fit and was valid for both groups of students. The results are discussed, within the framework of positive psychology, with regard to their practical implications in university contexts. ...

Outcomes of Fractured Neck of Femur Managed with Arthroplasty at Flinders Medical Centre: A Breakdown of Demographics using Early Results of a Local Revision Registry by Christopher John Wilson* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS) Trauma comprises a significant proportion of hip surgery at our local hospital, Flinders Medical Centre (FMC). With regards to neck of femur fractures (#NOF), many cases are managed with an internal fixation approach rather than arthroplasty. National data suggest that hip arthroplasties (THAs) are increasingly being used in preference for hemiarthroplasties (HAs) for intracapsular #NOF to improve patients function post-op. The aim of this retrospective cohort study was to continue building a robust prospective local Revision Registry in order to continue evaluate trends in local data regarding the aetiology and rates of revision hip arthroplasties at Flinders Medical Centre, where the primary arthroplasty was undertaken secondary to trauma. ...

Essential Oils as Preservatives in Cosmetics: An Integrative Review by Asia Filatov* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS) Cosmetics are more natural and sustainable due to pressure from the current society, which requires modification in traditional components, usually synthetic. Preservatives, which aim to extend products due to their ability to inhibit the growth and proliferation of microorganisms, are at the forefront of this change. The present study is characterized as an integrative review carried out about the use of essential oils (EO) as a cosmetic preservative, evaluating its effectiveness to replace or complement the current preservative system. The research’s guiding question was: EOs are effective as cosmetic preservatives and substitute equivalents for synthetic ones? Twenty-eight articles were selected in the consulted databases (Google Scholar, PubMed, and Scielo). EOs are promising natural preservatives either alone or combined with other EOs and with ...
