Weaning is the process of getting babies used to food other than breast milk or formula milk. Homemade baby food is preferable, including a varied selection of foods, starting from rice porridge followed by adding meat, vegetables, and fruits as appropriate. Baby food gradually becomes solid until the age of one when the babies can eat rice without further preparation. Avoid salt till the age of one, and even thereafter try not to make the baby food salty. Start adding meat from six months, and include meat on a daily basis when the baby is growing fast. Babies can self-feed by hand at 8 months of age and then can learn how to use a spoon. If the time to start weaning is too delayed or the way of weaning is not appropriate, feeding problems may ensue, which can potentially lead to developmental problems. It is important to remind that the weaning process is not just giving baby food as a source of nutrition for growth? It is a way of building a family bond and is a starting point of nourishing a healthy eating habit.

Purpose: To provide foundational data for developing death anxiety intervention programs for nurses by identifying the factors influencing their death anxiety in COVID-19 wards. Methods: This descriptive survey study involved 123 nurses who had worked for more than six months in the COVID-19 wards of a tertiary hospital in Metropolitan B City. Data were collected using a structured self-report questionnaire from March 22 to April 9, 2022. Results: Death anxiety differed significantly by gender (t=-3.32, p=.001). It showed a significant positive correlation with the perceived risk of respiratory infectious disease (r=.29, p=.001) but significant negative correlations with death attitude (r=-.69, p<.001) and self-esteem (r=-.18, p=.049). Factors influencing death anxiety included death attitude (β=-.67, p<.001) and gender (β=.23, p<.001), accounting for 52.4% of the variance. Conclusion This study found that death attitude and gender significantly influenced death anxiety among nurses in COVID-19 wards. Therefore, it is neccessary to develop and apply gender-sensitive death anxiety intervention programs that could positively and effectively influence death attitudes to reduce death anxiety of nurses in covid-19 wards.

In 1883 Fournier, a French venereologist, described 5 patients with unexplained fulminating gangrene of the male genitalia. Fournier emphasized 3 characteristics 1) the abrupt onset in a young, healthy male subjects, 2) the rapid progression to gangrene and 3) the absence of a discernible cause. As currently used by many authors, Fournier's gangrene describes a widely destructive, gangrenous process of the genitalia, with little regard for Fournier's original tenets of patient's age or definable etiology. Early identification and prompt initiation of medical and surgical therapy is imperative. We report two cases of Fournier's gangrene with brief review of the literatures.

Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), being one of the major subtypes of non-Hodgikin’s lymphoma, is marked by extranodal involvement. In patients with DLBCL, the stomach and gastrointestinal tract are commonly involved, but few cases have reported the involvement with the middle ear cavity and temporal bone. The present study reports a patient diagnosed with DLBCL characterized by middle ear cavity involvement. We also reviewed other similar cases in the literature.
