Dirofilariasis, caused by Dirofilaria immitis, mostly known as heartworm disease, is an important mosquito-borne nematode zoonosis that naturally infects canids and other species such as cats, ferrets, and humans. There have been reports of heartworm infection from many countries in worldwide. Researchers have reported D. immitis is widely distributed in Southeast Asia because this parasitic zoonosis disease lives in temperate, tropical, and subtropical areas and can be found in colder regions. Therefore, the authors intended to provide an overview of Dirofilariasis cases in Indonesia from a global perspective. The published articles of dirofilariasis were collected and retrieved by an electronic literature search of three databases, including Google Scholar, PubMed, and Science Direct. The literature presented is intended to enhance our current understanding of the overview of D. immitis infection and its prevalence in Indonesia from a global perspective. D. immitis infection can cause caval syndrome in dogs as well as a cardiopulmonary syndrome known as Heartworm-Associated Respiratory Diseases (HARD), which can become fatal as the number of worms infecting the host increases. Whereas in cats, although the number of worms in the host are very few (one to six worms) they can cause pathological changes in the pulmonary arteries which result in a more serious infection than in dogs and endanger life.

Pakistan is also seeing the profound effect of the outbreak of COVID-19, which demands an urgent investigation of literature and further scientific investigation for cure and prevention. This study has employed the systematic approach for searching the literature from the recently compiled database of researches namely COVID-19 Open Research Dataset (CORD-19) and related diseases. The literature on Pakistan has shown the evidence of human-to-human and animal-to-human transmission of viruses, the presence of antibodies of MERS-CoV in camels, and careless attitude towards preventive measures of such respiratory diseases. There is a lot of gap in the literature regarding coronaviruses and their antibodies creating herd immunity for another coronavirus and COVID-19. In particular to Pakistan, and in general, for other developing countries, a weak health-care system coupled with the trembling economy has many implications of COVID-19 which should be carefully thought-out to combat the spread.

Abstract Introduction A literature review to describe evidence on communicable diseases affecting people on ships or at ports, from 1990 to 2013 was carried out. Also, a literature review on radiological and chemical events of public health relevance associated with ships or at ports, from 1940 to 2013 was performed. Methodology Databases reviewed were: Medline, Scopus, Web of Science, Spanish Society of Maritime Medicine, and WebPages of WHO, The International Radio Medical Advice Centre, International Atomic Energy Agency, European Maritime Safety Agency, Marine Accident Investigation Branch, Spanish Nuclear Safety Council and the Major Accident Reporting System. Results From 1990 to 2013, 196 outbreaks relating to ships or ports with more than 24,000 cases and 19 deaths were published. 59% of outbreaks (n = 116) were food- and waterborne, causing 82% (n = 19741) of cases and 12 deaths (11 deaths due to Legionella, case fatality ratio of 7%); almost a third was caused by norovirus. Respiratory diseases, mainly Influenza, caused 18% of outbreaks and 2 deaths. Thirteen radiological events were published that affected 500 persons and caused 47 deaths, 24 due to exposure to elevated levels of radiation. During the study period 94 chemical events were published, of which 69 events affected people and in the remaining events only a public health risk was present. These 69 chemical events generated almost 12,000 cases and more than 2,000 deaths. Thirty countries, including all EU Member States, Norway and Iceland, were requested to complete the questionnaires regarding identification of authorities and practices for management of radiological and chemical events. Conclusions Food- and waterborne diseases are most reported; followed by respiratory diseases. Legionellosis accounted for the highest case fatality ratio. Tuberculosis was reported only on seafarers from cargo or fishing vessels and vaccine preventable diseases was mainly reported on crew members from cruise ships.

Myofascial pain syndromes are rightly to enduring health problems. The authors emphasize that the etiology and pathogenesis of these conditions are reviewed with the "enviable" frequency. It is natural, it affects on the common principles of treatment and rehabilitation of this population. In this regard, the present review discuss current views on the pathogenesis, clinical manifestations and common principles of treatment of myofascial pain syndromes, mechanisms of action and features of the drug and non-drug methods used in the clinic vertebral neurology. The authors describe the principles of modern trends of manual therapy and reflexology. The review presents EMG and ultrasound methods for diagnosis of trigger points, the characteristics of local muscle hypertones: painful and not painful. Special attention is paid to such phenomena as dysfunctions of the temporomandibular joint and laryngeal-pharyngeal block, viscero-motor reflexes and posthistory syndrome.
