The percentage of families in Lapulu Village that had healthy latrines was 64,84% who met the health requirements and 35,16% who did not meet the health requirements in 2019. This shows that the ownership of healthy latrines is still lower than the national achievement. This study aims to determine the factors associated with low ownership of healthy latrines in the coastal areas of Lapulu Village, Kendari City. The research design was observational, with a cross-sectional approach. The population in this study was 437 respondents, while the study sample was 209 respondents. The sampling technique used was proportional random sampling technique. The analysis were performed using the Chi-Square test. The results of statistical tests with chi-square obtained the value of land availability (p-value=0,000), knowledge (p-value=0,031), and income (p-value=0,000). It can be concluded that there is a relationship between land availability, knowledge, and income levels associated with low ownership of healthy latrines in the tidal area of ​​Lapulu Village, Kendari City. Therefore, it is hoped that the community and local government will establish this inter sector collaboration with related agencies to increase community ownership of healthy latrines.

Abstract: The paper underscores the infrastructural facility and the student’s academic performance in Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko, Ondo State, Nigeria. Thirty questionnaires were administered through a systematic sampling technique in each of the six faculties making a total of 180 questionnaires. The paper has found out a positive relationship between the student’s academic performance, power supply and health facilities. However, the internet facilities and transportation facilities were not adequate, whereas water supply was adequate. A test of the impact of infrastructural facility on the student’s academic performance, using a Chi Square statistical technique revealed a significant value of 177.1 at 0.05 % level. The paper recommends that the existing facilities should be upgraded and significantly improved by the government; urgent attention should be given to the development of the internet facilities and transportation sector of the University. Also, private partnership should be encouraged in the infrastructural development of the University.

377 Background: Extra-hepatic cholangiocarcinomas (EHC) are low-incidence cancers that are difficult to diagnose and associated with a dismal prognosis. Surgery remains the only option for durable survival however R1 resections are high. We sought to examine the impact of adjuvant therapies on survival in patients with EHC. Methods: Utilizing the National Cancer Database we identified patients who underwent resection for EHC. We then stratified by adjuvant therapy (chemo(AC) or chemoradiation(CRT). Baseline comparisons of patient characteristics were made using Mann-Whitney U, Kruskal Wallis and Pearson’s Chi-square test as appropriate. Survival analyses were performed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Multivariable cox proportional models (MVA) were developed to identify predictors of survival. All statistical tests were two-sided and α < 0.05 was considered significant. Results: We identified 4334 patients who underwent EHC resection: AC = 775, CRT = 1254, no adjuvant (NA) therapy = 2305 and a median age of 67 (18-90) years. R0 resections was performed in 71.6% of patients and the median LN harvest was 9 (3-18). R0 resections and lymph node negative patients demonstrate improved survival p < 0.001 and p < 0.001. Adjuvant therapy did not improve survival in R0 resections, p = 0.2. However survival was benefited in R1 patients, with those receiving CRT demonstrating the most significant improvement: median and overall 5-year survival AC = 16.7 months 8%, CRT = 23.1 months, 20.4%, and NA = 16.1 months and 11.6% p < 0.001. In LN- patients CRT (47.3 months, 47%) but not AC (45 months, 44.5%) demonstrated benefit in survival compared to NA (37.8 months, 40.1) p = 0.04 and p = 0.7. Additionally, patients with LN+ and R1 resection had survival benefit when treated with (CRT 24.9 months and 24.3%), compared to NA (20.2 and 21.1%), p = 0.02. AC (24 months and 24%) did not demonstrate survival in these patients, p = 0.21. MVA demonstrated that age, T-stage, LN+, R0 resection and CRT were predictors of survival. Conclusions: Adjuvant CRT improves survival for patients with EHC who underwent R1 resections, and in LN- and LN+ patients. However, AC only benefited node positive patients with R0 resections. Patients with resected EHC should be referred for adjuvant CRT.

The results of statistical tests were obtained (p-value 0.003 & 0.018) p-value <0.05, meaning that there was a significant relationship between stress and physical activity with blood pressure in essential hypertensive patients. The conclusion of the study is that, as severe as stress is deep in patients with hypertension, the higher the blood pressure and the more severe physical activity carried out will cause an increase in blood pressure.

Background: The routine method of measuring blood pressure (BP) is subject to numerous pitfalls. We evaluated the impact of a guidelines-based educational intervention on improvement of BP determination by fourth-year Iranian medical students. Methods: Using a consecutive sampling technique, 103 fourth-year medical students were recruited during their rotation in the Department of Community and Family Medicine at the Tabriz Medical School at the Tabriz University of Medical Sciences. All students attended a 3-hour training class covering accurate BP measurement. Using a valid checklist, sixteen elements of BP measurement skills were assessed among students before and after two weeks of training. McNemar’s test, paired-sample t tests and Pearson’s chi-square test were used to compare the data before and after training using SPSS version 23. Results: The study showed that before the training class most of the elements of BP measurement skills were not performed by most of the students, and 9 of 16 BP measurement skills were only performed by <20% of the students. Following the training class, however, 14 of 16 BP measurement skills were performed by >70% of the students. Before training, mean/SD of correctly-performed-skills out of 16 skills was 4.76/2.03. After training, the mean/SD was 13.99/5.19 (P < 0.001). Conclusion: This study showed a significant improvement in medical students’ BP measurement skills after a 3-hour course of training. Thus, it appears that periodic training sessions of accurate BP measurement for medical students may be of great benefit and equal importance in medical schools.
