Using the Negative Air Generators to Improve the Animal Reactivity

Abstract: Electrical charged particles formed in the air, either negative or positive, can be created naturally or artificially by using an ion generator. The negative air ions have beneficial effects on humans and animals whilst the positive ones elicit the opposite effects. The paper presents a few selected examples to illustrate the biological effects of small air ions on chicken eggs and on laboratory animals. We used different concentrations of ions, in different periods of development, solely or in association with physical or chemical factors. Our studies confirm the results of other researchers with tradition in the field, that negative air ions have a normalization effect, of return to the normal the hematological parameters or histologically structure of modified organs and may become a valuable adjunct to other forms of therapy.

Quality of life among district hospital nurses with multisite musculoskeletal symptoms in Vietnam.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Nurses are one of the population groups with the highest prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). At many sites, musculoskeletal symptoms (MS) represent a major health-care burden, adversely affecting nurses' quality of life and giving rise to mental health issues. OBJECTIVES: This study measured the prevalence of multi-body-site (two or more anatomical sites) musculoskeletal symptoms (MMS), and the association between MMS, a number of demographic and work characteristics, psychological distress, and the quality of life among district hospital nurses. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A cross-sectional study was performed with 1179 nurses in Haiphong City using three questionnaires: the Modified Nordic; Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Short Form (Q-LES-Q-SF); and the Kessler Psychological Distress Questionnaire (K6). RESULTS: Women have a higher MMS prevalence than men (57.1% in women vs 37.6% in men, P < .001). Having a higher number of anatomical sites of MS appears to be associated with a worse quality of life among nurses. Linear regression analysis found a number of other factors negatively associated with the nurses' quality of life: gender (female), age (50-60 years old vs 19-29 years old), and psychological distress. CONCLUSIONS: This study shows a high prevalence of MMS and the relationship between, on the one hand, MMS, gender, age, as well as psychological distress and, on the other hand, the quality of life among nurses in Vietnam. Further in-depth studies are needed to investigate the causal relationships between these indicators. © 2020 The Authors.

A morphometric anatomical study on the division of the left main coronary artery and myocardial bridges

Abstract: The division of the left main coronary artery (LMCA) exhibits a range of anatomical variation It can divide into two, three, four or five branches, and have myocardial bridges This carries important significance in clinical practice The objective of this study was to examine the morphometric anatomical variation of the LMCA in Vietnamese cadavers Hearts from 125 cadavers preserved in formalin solution were used in the study LMCA was present in 96% of the specimens with the mean diameter of 462 ± 074 mm and the mean length of 905 ± 361 mm The LMCA gave rise to two branches (bifurcation) in 512%, three branches (trifurcation) in 432% and four branches (quadrifurcation) in 56% The mean outer diameter of the anterior interventricular artery, circumflex artery and the intermediate branch were 378 ± 054 mm, 333 ± 067 mm, and 180 ± 062 mm, respectively The anterior interventricular artery ended at the anterior interventricular sulcus in 16% of the specimens, ended at the apex in 216%, and crossed over the apex to reach the posterior interventricular sulcus and terminate there in 768% The circumflex artery ended before the left border in 413%, at the left border in 4628%, between the left border and the crux in 4662% and at the crux in 413% The myocardial bridge was present only at anterior interventricular artery in 416%; in both anterior interventricular artery and posterior interventricular branch in 56% LMCA varies in length and it can divide into two, three or four branches End position of the anterior interventricular artery and the circumflex artery are variable These variations may prove challenging during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery diagnostic imaging
