    Abstract Electronic sports (e-sports) is a growing entity that is estimated to be valued at USD $200 billion by the end of 2023. With the rapid rate of growth, it will come to a point that e-sports will need to be regulated including regulatory mechanisms of fair play, which includes sports doping. With the emergence of substances that provides unfair advantages in terms of concentration, staying awake and preventing anxiety including tremors, there is a need to regulate doping in e-sports. However, due to the nature of the sport, it might not be as straightforward to regulate as other sports.

    Abstract Background: Measuring the success of the control of COVID-19 in any country includes a review of the mortality especially to compare the deaths of those dying in hospitals and those brought in dead (BID). The objective of this study was to compare the death groups with the demographic factors that influenced the type of death.
    Methods: This was a case-control study (1:1 ratio) looking at COVID-19 secondary public data from March 2020 to February 2021. Data such as the basic demographic data and comorbidities were analysed descriptively and then using a binary-logistic regression analysis to compare the independent variables against the outcome of BID. From the database, 120 cases were included as BID (4 excluded due to insufficient information) and 120 patients from the 1006 who passed away in hospital were randomly selected as comparators. The data was analysed in SPSS v21.0.
    Results: The mean age for the BID was 59.59 (SD: 18.74), with more males (70.8%) than females (29.2%), of which 61.7% were Malaysians, 46.7% from the state of Sabah, and 64.2% having at least one co-morbidity (50% of them had hypertension). A univariate binary logistic regression analysis yielded factors such as age, nationality, and presence of any co-morbidities that are favourable to be included into the multivariate analysis. From the final analysis, the only factor that distinguished the BID from those dying in the hospital was being a foreigner (AOR: 4.32 [95%CI: 2.02-9.24], p<0.001).
    Conclusions: This concluded that foreigners in Malaysia were likely to die from COVID-19 outside of the hospital compared to Malaysians. Amongst the reasons that needed to be addressed were cost, accessibility issues regarding medical care, and the testing policies in Malaysia.

    Abstract We present the case of a 6-year-old girl who initially presented with acute pelvic pain, ultimately diagnosed with imperforate hymen leading to hematocolpos. Further investigation revealed additional clinical features including academic struggles, mood swings, and cutaneous findings, prompting consideration of a neurocutaneous syndrome. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) revealed features consistent with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), including radial migration lines in the subcortical white matter and an incidental arachnoid cyst. Notably, this case exhibited a unique presentation with absence of typical TSC findings such as subependymal nodules or cortical tubers. Additionally, precocious puberty, rarely associated with TSC, was observed, suggesting a potential link between hypothalamic lesions and hormonal imbalance. This case underscores the importance of comprehensive evaluation in pediatric patients presenting with seemingly unrelated symptoms, as it may unveil underlying conditions necessitating tailored management strategies.

  5. Article: The opinion of general practitioners in Malaysia on newly imposed third party health administrator policies in primary care.

    Abstract Background: Third Party Health Administrators (TPA) has become an integral part in the field of funding healthcare for most parts in the world. Although they ensure access to medical care when out-of-pocket payment is required, TPAs have been found to impose unreasonable dictation in medicine prescriptions that undercuts doctors remuneration including paying very low medical consultation fees, types/methods of treatment and modalities for their policy holders. The objective of this study was to get the opinion of Malaysian doctors regarding the newly imposed policies and rates that these companies have forcibly dictated towards private primary care General Practitioners (GPs).
    Materials and methods: This was a cross sectional study, conveniently sampling private GPs currently practicing in Malaysia. A self-developed online questionnaire was sent out to the members via social media with the assistance of the Malaysian Medical Association the affiliates of Federation of Private Medical Practitioners Associations of Malaysia and Medical Practitioners Coalition Association of Malaysia. Data was collected from April to July 2021. A series of 7 short questions were asked in the survey to yield a higher response rate. A population to proportion sample size was calculated and a minimum of 365 responses were required. All data collected were collated and analysed in the SPSS v21.0 RESULTS: From a total of 7,000 GPs, 491 GPs (134.52% of intended sample size) responded to the questionnaire. The largest portion of respondents were from Selangor (21.79%). A total of 65.58% of the GPs felt that the RM 15 consultation fee dictated by the TPAs was unfair, 71.08% felt it was unfair that TPA overwrote certain investigations done or medicines given as over-treatment, 90.84% felt that TPAs had no jurisdiction to dictate the number of days of medication patients needed for chronic medical conditions, 95.52% did not agree that TPAs fix the price of each medication, 54.58% agreed that marking up medications from 5-15% of the original purchase price was fair and 68.64% agreed that they would boycott TPAs that were unreasonable with their dictation/demands.
    Conclusion: GPs generally disagreed with many new policies imposed by TPAs. These new policies might hinder the screening, management and early detection of chronic non communicable diseases here in Malaysia.

    Abstract Background: COVID-19 is caused by a novel coronavirus, named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The foremost predominant complication of SARS-CoV-2 is arterial hypoxemia thereby disturbing lung compliance, requiring mechanical ventilation. The aim of the current research study is to analyze role of ABG as a valuable assessment tool of disease severity in SARS-CoV-2 patients.
    Methods: 170 arterial blood samples were collected from patients admitted in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of Sri Guru Ram Das Charitable Hospital, Amritsar. They were analyzed for arterial blood gas using ABG analyzer. Parameters of ABG such as pH, pCO2, HCO3, O2 saturation, ionized calcium (iCa) and calculated ionized calcium (at pH 7.4) was calculated for all the samples.
    Results: Continuous variables were described as medians with interquartile ranges (IQRs) and categorical variables as percentages and frequencies. Spearman correlation test was done for calculation of correlation between pH and other ABG parameters. Analysis of arterial blood gas revealed significant negative correlation (p<0.05) between pH and pCO2 and significant positive correlation (p<0.05) between pH and HCO3 and between pH and delta ionized calcium. Low levels (98.2%) of ionized calcium were observed while monitoring the ABG findings though weak negative correlation (p<0.05) was observed between pH and iCa.
    Conclusions: Our study suggests that ABG analysis acts as a momentous indicator for critically ill patients admitted in Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Estimation of iCa in this critical care setting acts as a distinctive biochemical feature of SARS-CoV-2 disease, as an initial assessment tool, for hypocalcemia.
