Efficacy And Safety of Nifuratel-Nystatin in The Treatment of Mixed Vaginitis, in Pregnant Women From Quindío, 2013-2017. Randomized Clinical Trial


Women with abnormal vaginal discharge usually suffer from bacterial vaginosis (BV), vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC), trichomonas vaginitis (TV) or any combination of these. Objective: To compare the efficacy and safety of the combination nifuratel-nystatin with metronidazole -nystatin in the treatment of mixed vaginitis in pregnant women, and its adverse effects. Materials and methods: Randomized, double-blind, parallel-group clinical trial in 153 pregnant women, diagnosed with mixed vaginitis; in a complex private medical institution in Armenia (Colombia), between 2013 and 2017. The patients were randomized 1:1 to receive a daily intravginal egg for six days: nifuratel (500mg) - nystatin (200,000 IU) (Group "A") and metronidazole (500mg) - nystatin (100,000 IU) (Group "B"). A follow-up of the healing of symptoms was determined at one week and an evaluation of the microbiological negativization at one month. Safety was assessed based on reports of adverse events. Descriptive statistics were used.

Results: The mean age of the population was 27.59±3.71 years. The mean gestational age in group "A" was 18.56±2.87 weeks compared to 19.57±2.95 weeks in group "B" (p=0.87). The clinical cure rates at 7 days in group "A" were 84.61% vs. 81.33% in group "B", (p=0.91) The microbiological negativization at one month was 91.02% in group "A" vs. 86.66% in group "B", (p=0,072) The recurrence rate was 1.28% in group "A" vs. 5.33% in group "B", (p=0.37) Adverse events were present in the metronidazole-nystatin group, which were mild and self-limited. Conclusion: Both drugs have comparable efficacy and similar safety results in the treatment of mixed vaginitis in pregnant women; therefore, they can be used interchangeably. Studies in larger populations with a control group and random assignment are required to provide better evidence regarding this management.

 Resilience, Risk-Taking Behavior and Aggression among Female Volleyball Players – a Preliminary Study The aim of the current study is to investigate the level of risk-taking behavior, resilience and aggression in female volleyball players and the link between these psychological variables and coach’s performance ranking. A Romanian volleyball team ranked 7th out of 11 in the A1 league in the national championship (2022-2023 period) participated at the study. The Romanian adaptation of the Brief Resilience Scale, The Romanian adaptation of Makarowski’s Stimulating and Instrumental Risk Questionnaire, The Romanian adaptation of Makarowski's Aggression Questionnaire and Delphi method (evaluation of female volleyball players by coaches) were used. Analysis of the results reveals that athletes have a low level of perseverance (Go-Ahead factor), a low level of Foul play and a moderate to low level of assertiveness. Also, most athletes registered average or even low levels of resilience

 Chemo stratigraphic Profile of a Reservoir in Well “X” of Field “Y” Offshore Southern Gabon - Stephy Publishers In a bid to evaluate the elemental and mineralogical content of reservoir samples from the “X” well in the “Y” oil field offshore Southern Gabon, analyses were performed using XRD and XRF. The log view profile of the result inferred that Na, Mg, and Calcite were absent in the shallower series of the reservoir sandstones studied, this observation implies that they are soluble ions that had eroded and refer to warm and humid paleoclimate and a depositional environment that is arid, which corresponds to the continental crust as their source. The plot of Ti and FeO+Mg discriminate the deeper series of the reservoir sandstone samples from the shallower samples. The lower series showed heavier values which implies their origin from Oceanic Crust. These are also the pre-salt facies while the shallower series were more of continental origin and represent the post-salt facies. https:
