A espiritualidade como ferramenta no enfrentamento do HIV/AIDS

Objetivo: Analisar a espiritualidade como uma ferramenta terapêutica no convívio com o vírus da imunodeficiência adquirida/Síndrome da Imunodeficiência Adquirida (HIV/AIDS), na qualidade de vida e na saúde mental e emocional das pessoas que vivem com HIV/AIDS (PVHA). Métodos: Estudo quanti-qualitativo que utilizou como população de estudo 10 usuários regularmente acompanhados pelo Centro de Orientação e Aconselhamento Sorológico/ Centro de Testagem e Acolhimento (COAS/CTA). Estes pacientes foram submetidos a uma entrevista estruturada que visava entender a relação deles com a religiosidade e com a espiritualidade. Resultados: Foi observado que 100% dos entrevistados acreditavam em um ser superior, embora 30% deles não possuíssem nenhuma religião. A espiritualidade pode atuar como um fator negativo ou positivo no enfrentamento da doença, visto que algumas pessoas podem encarar a doença como um castigo divino, enquanto outras veem na religião um amparo para o enfrentamento da sua condição, se sentindo aceitos e amados por um ser superior. Conclusão: Quando a relação com a espiritualidade ocorre de maneira positiva, ela é vista como suporte para a superação da situação crônica de cuidado. Porém, quando a relação é negativa, o paciente tem nesta um fator a mais de culpa e sofrimento.

Occupational Exposure to Blood and Body Fluids and Knowledge of HIV Post-Exposure Prophylaxis among Medical and Allied Health Students in Northern Nigeria.

Clinical students are at increased risk of exposure to blood-borne pathogens. However, little has been documented about their exposure to blood and body fluids and their knowledge of post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) in high-HIV burden settings, such as Nigeria. To determine the prevalence and predictors of BBF exposure and knowledge about PEP among medical and allied health students in northern Nigeria. In a cross-sectional study, 273 clinical students were asked to complete structured questionnaires. The prevalence of BBF exposure was determined. Binary logistic regression was used to determine the independent predictors of BBF exposure. The majority of the respondents (98.2%) had heard about PEP; 26.0% (n=71) had adequate knowledge about PEP. 76 (27.8%) of the 273 respondents reported accidental exposure to HIV. 230 (84.2%) respondents had positive attitude toward HIV PEP. Of those who had had accidental exposure to HIV (n=76), only 13% (n=10) received PEP. The level of knowledge about PEP was predicted by previous training (aOR 0.43, 95% CI 0.23 to 0.80 ["no" vs "yes"]), year of training (aOR 4.10, 95% CI 1.60 to 10.47 [6th vs 4th year]), course of study (aOR 4.69, 95% CI 2.06 to 10.68 ["allied health" vs "clinical medicine"]) and religion (aOR 5.39, 95% CI 1.40 to 20.71 ["non-Muslim" vs "Muslim"]). Similarly, accidental exposure was independently predicted by respondents' sex (aOR 2.55, 95% CI1.36 to 4.75 ["female" vs "male"]), age (aOR 2.54, 95% CI 1.06 to 6.15 ["25-29" vs "20-24" years]), ethnicity (aOR 2.15, 95% CI1.10 to 5.14 ["others" vs "Hausa/Fulani"]), course of study (aOR 0.06, 95% CI 0.01 to 0.38 ["allied health" vs "clinical medicine"]), and previous PEP training (aOR 0.39, 95% CI 0.20 to 0.78 ["no" vs "yes"]). One in four clinical students reported exposure to BBF. Most students expressed a positive attitude toward PEP, but knowledge and uptake of PEP was sub-optimal. We recommend strengthening training curricula for infection control and prevention and enhancing protocols for timely post-exposure evaluation and follow up for all exposure incidents.

Comparison of the effectiveness of GOD oriented multidimensional spiritual parenting and positive parenting on mothers with high stress

Background and Objective: Today, the connection between spirituality, religion, and parenting are unquestionable. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of God's spiritual oriented multidimensional parenting and positive parenting on mothers with high stress. Methods: The present study was a quasi-experimental study. The statistical population was all mothers of 8-11-year-old boys and girls who were studying in schools of Tehran, 15th district in the academic year of 2016-2017; among the mothers of these students, 30 were selected by convenient sampling method and were randomly assigned to three experimental and control groups (15 each). Subjects in the multidimensional spiritual-religious parenting experimental group (12 sessions of 120 minutes) and the positive parenting group (10 sessions of 120 minutes) were trained weekly and the control group received no training. The results were analyzed using an Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). Results: Based on the results, the mean and standard deviation of the age of mothers spiritual multidimensional parenting group (M = 34.2; SD = 3.19); the positive parenting group (M = 33.8; SD = 7.14); and the control group were equal (M = 36.3; SD = 6.16). parental satisfaction (P <0.001, F = 10.66), parenting style (P <0.01, F = 5.19), and parental self-efficacy (P <0.05). F= 3/70), in God's spiritual oriented multidimensional parenting group is significantly higher than the scores of the positive parenting group and the control group (P <0.05). Conclusion: According to recent research and that achieving spiritual transformation and growth can facilitate the mental and physical health of mothers and children. The role of parents in moderating children's development, especially children's spiritual development, needs more attention.

Adolescent Barriers in Accessing Reproductive Health Services in Developing Countries

Background : Adolescents (10–19 years) are the future leaders of our society and an untapped human resource. About one-fifth (more than 1.2bn) of the global population are adolescents, and many of the world’s adolescents live in developing nations. Adolescents are perceived to be healthy, however, they are vulnerable and exposed to many health risks leading to premature deaths. In 2015, about 1.3m adolescents died globally from causes that could have been prevented. Over two-thirds of these deaths occurred in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) with 45 percent from Africa. Approximately 16m girls aged 15–19 years and 2.5m girls under 16 years give birth each year in developing regions. About 3m girls aged 15–19 years undergo unsafe abortions every year. Moreover, about 2m adolescents are living with human immune virus (HIV) globally, and over 41 percent of new HIV infections in every year occur among adolescents. Purpose : to explore adolescent barriers to accessing reproductive health services in developing countries. Method : Apprasial studies program using Critical Appraisal Skills Program (CASP) data sources obtained from PubMed with year period of 2009 – 2019. Results : inadequate space, no privacy, limited service hours, poor service attitude, lack of information, distance of clinics, high transportation costs, clinics aimed at married couples. lack of human resources, parental support, peer influence, religion and weak community traditions for adolescent health interventions also trigger adolescents not to access reproductive health clinics. Conclusion : adolescent barriers to accessing reproductive health services are facility level, personal level, service provider level and community level.

Finding New Themes: Othernization, Religion and the Body

종교에 대한 연구에 있어서 타자화의 문제는 중요한 이슈가 되어왔다. 이것은 타자화가 종교와 관련한 여러가지 사회적, 문화적 문제들을 일으키는 원인이 될 뿐만 아니라 종교 자체가 자리하고 있는 기반이었기 때문이다. 이런 점에서 종교에 대한 연구는 문화적, 인종적 차이와 심지어 인간의 몸이라는 주제를 포괄하는 타자화의 문제와 씨름하는 과정이라고 해도 과장이 아니다. 이 논문은 종교에서 타자화의 문제가 인간의 몸을 타자화 하고 지배하는 권력과 어떻게 관련되어 있는 지를 살펴보는 시도이다. 다시 말해서, 종교에 있어서 타자화의 문제가 지금까지 어떻게 몸의 문제와 연관되어 왔는지를 넓은 시각에서 살펴보는 것이 이 논문의 목적이다. 이를 위하여, 이 논문은 하나의 문제에 집중하기보다는, 가능한 연구 주제들을 종합적으로 고찰하면서 새롭고 대안적인 연구 영역을 모색하게 된다. 한편으로는, 서구에서의 종교가 다음과 같은 목적으로 타자화를 통해서 작용하게 되었다는 점을 지적하게 될 것인데, 그것은 1) 주체와 타자의 개별성을 포괄하는 보편적인 개념의 구성 2) 주체의 우월성과 타자의 열등성을 부여하는 방식으로의 관계 방식 3) 형이상학적이고 탈역사적인 논리를 바탕으로 한 타자에 대한 지배이다. 다른 한편으로는, 인간의 몸과 관련하여 타자화의 문제를 다루는 새로운 주제로, 의례연구에서의 몸과 의미 부여과정으로써의 고통의 문제를 제시하게 될 것이다.
