    Foreign bodies, particularly fish bones, in the hypopharynx and cervical esophagus are a common complaint. A swallowed foreign body can be embedded in the tonsil, the base of the tongue, the pyriform fossae, or any region of the upper esophagus. A 70-year-old woman presented with persistent left-sided pharyngeal pain with the sensation of a foreign body for 10 days. She felt a sudden sharp pain in her pharynx while eating a fish head 10 days before the presentation. On examination, an elderly woman was found in painful distress. Flexible fiberoptic laryngoscopy revealed a pool of saliva in the pyriform fossae and a diagnosis of a foreign body in the esophagus was suspected. She was planned for direct laryngoscopy, left (lateral/external) pharyngotomy, and removal of foreign bodies under fluoroscopic guidance of the C-arm. A metallic fish hook that hung over the greater left horn, buried in the neck muscles, was found during the surgery and was extracted. The patient did well postoperatively and was discharged from the clinic. Foreign bodies, particularly fish bones, in the hypopharynx and cervical esophagus are a common complaint, particularly in the African setting.
  • Occupational Noise Exposure, Hearing Conservation Programs, and Tinnitus Outcomes in Industrial Communities: A Mixed-Methods Review
    Shuaib Kayode Aremu, Chijioke Cosmas Achebe, Kayode Rasaq Adewoye
    Nigerian Health Journal, 2025
    Background: Tinnitus remains under-recognized as a distinct occupational health concern with profound psychosocial ramifications in industrial communities, despite existing regulatory frameworks globally. Significant gaps persist in the implementation of tinnitus-responsive hearing conservation programs (HCPs), especially in resource-limited industrial settings. The unique lived experiences of workers are often marginalized in occupational discourse, highlighting the need for comprehensive understanding of the relationship between occupational noise exposure, hearing conservation programs, and tinnitus outcomes. Methods: This review utilized a mixed-methods framework, integrating quantitative epidemiological data with qualitative narratives from affected workers and occupational health professionals. Relevant studies were identified through a targeted search of peer-reviewed journals, international health databases, and institutional reports, focusing on industrial noise exposure and tinnitus outcomes. Articles were selected based on relevance, recency, and inclusion of African or global industrial contexts. The review categorizes findings into epidemiology, risk factors, conservation program effectiveness, psychosocial impacts, and management strategies. Results: The review critically synthesizes existing literature demonstrating the complex relationship between occupational noise exposure and tinnitus in industrial settings. Findings reveal substantial evidence across multiple categories including epidemiological patterns, risk factor identification, effectiveness of current hearing conservation programs, psychosocial impacts on workers, and existing management strategies. Conclusion: This article contributes novel insights to the field by consolidating fragmented evidence and emphasizing human-centered policy frameworks. The review calls for integrative intervention models combining technical, clinical, and psychosocial strategies to address tinnitus in occupational settings.
  • Tinnitus in Later Life: The Role of Socio-Cultural Determinants, Social Support, Health Conditions, and Lifestyle Behaviours among the Rural Elderly in North-Central Nigeria
    Aremu, Shuaib Kayode, Achebe, Chijioke, Yusuf, Issa
    Nigerian Health Journal, 2025
    Background: Tinnitus, defined as the perception of sound without external stimuli, significantly affects the life quality among elderly populations worldwide. This study investigated the prevalence and associations of tinnitus with socio-cultural determinants, social support, health conditions, and lifestyle behaviors among rural elderly residents in Asa Local Government Area of Kwara state, North-Central Nigeria. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted among 427 elderly residents (≥65 years) using structured questionnaires to collect data on tinnitus symptoms, socio-demographic characteristics, cultural beliefs, social support (measured by the Oslo Social Support Scale), health conditions, and lifestyle behaviors. Chi-square analysis was employed to determine associations between variables. Results: Tinnitus prevalence was found to be 41.7% among participants. Observed was significant associations between tinnitus and educational status (χ² = 12.36, p = 0.006), age (χ² = 9.84, p = 0.007), cultural beliefs about loss of hearing (χ² = 18.73, p < 0.001), social support levels (χ² = 15.28, p < 0.001), hypertension (χ² = 11.42, p < 0.001), diabetes (χ² = 7.65, p = 0.006), and exposure to environmental noise (χ² = 14.32, p < 0.001). Low social support was more common among tinnitus sufferers (52.8%) compared to non-sufferers (31.5%). Conclusion: There is significant association between tinnitus among rural elderly Nigerians and socio-cultural factors, lack of social support, chronic health conditions, and lifestyle behaviors. Culturally sensitive interventions that address modifiable risk factors and strengthen social support systems are recommended to reduce tinnitus burden in this population.
  • Asymptomatic Bacteriuria and Its Determinants Among Pregnant Women In Rural Southwestern Nigeria
    Azeez Oyemomi Ibrahim, Segun Mathew Agboola, Shuaib Kayode Aremu, Tosin Anthony Agbesanwa, Olusegun Emmanuel Gabriel- Alayode, et al.
    Tanzania Journal of Health Research, 2024
    Background: The occurrence of asymptomatic bacteriuria in pregnancy has been associated with adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. Objective: This study determined the prevalence of asymptomatic bacteriuria and its determinants among pregnant women in rural Southwestern Nigeria. Methods: A hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted between June 2021 and May 2023 among 400 pregnant women with no signs or symptoms of urinary tract infection. Demographic and clinical data were collected using structured questionnaires. Mid-urine samples were cultured using standard laboratory procedures. Bacterial colonies were isolated, and antimicrobial sensitivity was measured using the disc diffusion technique. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 22. The determinants of asymptomatic bacteriuria were measured using odds ratio and 95% confidence Interval (CI) with significant level ( p-value <0.05). Results: The prevalence of asymptomatic bacteriuria was 24.0% (95% CI = 18.2% - 30.5%). The determinants of asymptomatic bacteriuria were the absence of post-coital urination (AOR, 4.433; 95%CI: 1.462-7.116), diabetes mellitus (AOR, 2.468; 95% CI: 1.300 – 4.684), and anaemia (AOR, 2.699; 95%CI: 1.042 – 6.729). The most detected asymptomatic bacteriuria was E. coli 52/96 (54.2%). The cultured isolates were 100.0% sensitive to ceftriaxone and ceftazidine but were 100.0% resistant to ampicillin and erythromycin. Conclusion: Based on the urine culture and sensitivity results, the study suggests using ceftriaxone or ceftazidine as an empirical treatment for asymptomatic bacteriuria.

    Background: Research on breast cancer risk factors and mortality is gaining recognition and attention globally; there is need to add more information on its determinants among patients admitted in hospital. Some studies on risk factors and mortality of breast cancer in Nigeria hospitals conducted in the urban and suburban areas have been documented. Therefore, an addition of a study conducted in the setting of a rural health institution is necessary. This study assessed the risk factors and determinants of mortality among patients admitted for breast cancer in rural Southwestern Nigeria. Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted on 260 patients who were admitted for breast cancer between January 2010 and December 2023 using a data form and a standardized information form. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 22.0. The risk factors and the determinants of mortality of patients with breast cancer were identified using multivariate regression model. Results: The breast cancer risk factors were old age, family history, tobacco smoking, combined oral contraceptives, and hormonal therapy use. The case fatality rate was 38.1%, and its determinants of mortality were patients who were older (adjusted odds ratio [AOR], 1.956; 95% confidence interval [CI]:1.341-4.333), obese (AOR, 2.635; 95% CI: 1.485-6.778), stage IV (AOR, 1.895; 95% CI: 1.146-8.9742), mastectomy (AOR, 2.512; 95% CI: 1.003-6.569), discontinued adjuvant chemotherapy (AOR, 1.785; 95% CI: 1.092-4.6311), and yet to commence adjuvant chemotherapy (AOR, 2.568; 95% CI: 1.367-5.002). Conclusion: The study revealed that patients with breast cancer were associated with high mortality. Sustained health education to promote early diagnosis, managed co-morbidities, and access to treatment may contribute to reduction in breast cancer mortality in rural Nigeria.

    Unplanned and unintended pregnancies have become major medical, social and public health issues worldwide. The objective of this study was to determine sexual exposure, awareness and knowledge of long active reversible contraceptives (LARC) among female undergraduate students in public and private universities in Ekiti State, Southwest Nigeria. A comparative cross-sectional study was carried out among 428 female university undergraduates in Ekiti State (208 students in public and 210 students in private) using a multi-stage sampling technique. Data were obtained using a semi-structured questionnaire and analyzed using IBM SPSS version 23. P-value <0.05 was taken as significant. The mean age of respondents was 21.1±2.5years in public and 19.3±2.1years in private university. 53% of public university students and 30% of private university students have had sexual intercourse. While 41.3% of public university students were aware of LARC, 37.1% of the private university students were aware. The knowledge of LARC among the public university students was lower (23.6%) as compared to those in private university (33.3%). We conclude that while sexual exposure is higher among public university students than in private, the awareness of LARC was higher in public than private universities. Continuous campaign programmes to university students on the benefit of LARC is recommended.
  • Knowledge and Awareness of Aetiological and Risk Factors as Determinants of Health‑Seeking Pattern of Parents of Children with Epistaxis in a Tertiary Health Institution: A 7‑Year Prospective Study
    Shuaib Kayode Aremu
    African Journal of Paediatric Surgery, 2023
    Aim: This prospective study aimed to assess the knowledge and awareness of aetiological and risk factors as determinants of the health-seeking pattern of parents of children with epistaxis in a tertiary health institution. Materials and Methods: This was a 7-year cross-sectional prospective study where copies of the questionnaire were distributed to consenting parents whose children presented to our institution with epistaxis between January 2015 and December 2021. A total of 570 parents were enrolled in the study in the research time period. Results: Out of 570 patients, majority (39%) were aged between 11 and 15 years, followed by 35% aged between 6 and 10 years, 17% aged between 1 and 5 years and 11% aged between 16 and 18 years. Three hundred and eighty (66.67%) were male and 190 (33.33%) were female. Two hundred and ninety-five (51.75%) patients had primary education, followed by 189 (33.16%) patients with secondary education and 86 (15.09%) patients with preschool education. Three hundred and seventy-three (65.44%) patients had anterior bleeding and 107 (18.77%) patients had posterior bleeding while 90 (15.79%) patients had both anterior and posterior bleeding. The majority of the parents, 399 (70%), were aware about the epistaxis while 171 (30%) parents were unaware about the epistaxis. Conclusion: A significant number of parents are unaware of the epistaxis and also unaware of the various aetiological and risk factors of the epistaxis and these issues need a more nuanced analysis in light of Africa’s rich cultural diversity.

    Lipomas of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) are generally rare. They are rare in children, and when they occur they are usually submucosa. Most of the submucosa lipomas of GIT are present in the colon (65%–75%) and small intestine (25%). In children, intestinal lipoma is a documented cause of pathological lead point intussusception, especially when located in the submucosa. The present case report is of subserosa lipoma in the distal ileum. A 2-year-old boy presented with features of intestinal obstruction which was preceded by a painless abdominal mass. In the absence of computerised tomography scan, he was operated, and histopathology examination confirmed the mass as pedunculated fibrolipoma arising from the subserosa and causing extrinsic compression of the ileum.

    Background There is increasing evidence suggesting that adolescents are contributing to the populations at risk of malaria. This study determined the prevalence of malaria infection among the adolescents and examined the associated determinants considering socio-demographic, Long Lasting Insecticide Nets (LLINs) usage, and hematological factors in rural Southwestern Nigeria. Methods A hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted between July 2021 and September 2022 among 180 adolescents who were recruited at a tertiary health facility in rural Southwestern Nigeria. Interviewer administered questionnaire sought information on their socio-demographics and usage of LLINs. Venous blood samples were collected and processed for malaria parasite detection, ABO blood grouping, hemoglobin genotype, and packed cell volume. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 20. A p-value &lt;0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results The prevalence of malaria infection was 71.1% (95% CI: 68.2%-73.8%). Lack of formal education (AOR = 2.094; 95% CI: 1.288–3.403), being a rural residence (AOR = 4.821; 95% CI: 2.805–8.287), not using LLINs (AOR = 1.950; 95% CI: 1.525–2.505), genotype AA (AOR = 3.420; 95% CI: 1.003–11.657), genotype AS (AOR = 3.574; 95%CI: 1.040–12.277), rhesus positive (AOR = 1.815; 95% CI:1.121–2.939), and severe anemia (AOR = 1.533; 95% CI: 1.273–1.846) were significantly associated with malaria infection. Conclusion The study revealed the prevalence of malaria infection among the adolescents in rural Southwestern Nigeria. There may be need to pay greater attention to adolescent populations for malaria intervention and control programs.
