COMPARISON OF EMPIRIC ANTIBIOTIC ESCALATION THERAPY WITH VANCOMYCIN (VAN) VERSUS LINEZOLID (LIN) IN PATIENTS WITH FEBRILE NEUTROPENIA
Authors: Mayer Karin , Hegge Nicolaus , Molitor Ernst , Brossart Peter , Hahn-Ast Corinna
Published: April 2022

Background:
In febrile neutropenia linezolid (LIN) and also vancomycin (VAN) can be used if a gram-positive infection is suspected. Interestingly there is no literature in which both are compared in the setting of febrile neutropenia.  Therefore we provide here the results of a retrospective analysis of  adding VAN versus LIN in patients with febrile neutropenia.
Methods:
Patients with haematological diseases and  febrile neutropenia after myelosuppressive chemotherapy and no clearance of infection after the first empiric broad spectrum antibiotic, which were escalated to VAN or LIN from 03/2010 to 03/2014 at the University Hospital Bonn were included in this retrospective analysis.
Results:
Out of the 73 patients 50 had received VAN and 23 LIN. The median time of hospitalisation in the LIN cohort was significant shorter than in the VAN cohort (LIN 16 days vs VAN 20 days p=0.046). Successful defervescence with the escalation to VAN or LIN could be detected in 76% of the LIN cases and 50% in the VAN group (p=0.052). This trend to a better efficacy with LIN was also shown by a higher rate of discontinuation of VAN and escalation to another antibiotic scheme (54.2%) than in the LIN cohort (24%, p=0.052).  
Conclusion:
The antibiotic therapy in febrile neutropenia with LIN showed a trend to a better efficacy than therapy with VAN. But because of the small sample size and the retrospective manner VAN may still be considered a reasonable option in neutropenic fever and randomized studies are needed in this field.

HAS HEMATOPOIETIC STEM CELL TRANSPLANTATION A ROLE IN THE TREATMENT OF CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS WITH ACUTE PROMYELOCYTIC LEUKEMIA?
Authors: Testi Anna Maria
Published: April 2022

The past three decades have brought major therapeutic advances in the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) both in adults and children. The current state-of-the-art treatment with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and arsenic trioxide (ATO) in combination or not with chemotherapy results in long-lasting remission and cure in more than 90% of newly diagnosed patients. These treatments have made relapse a rare event. The detection of PML-RARA transcript by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) during treatment and follow-up can predict a hematological relapse. All studies have suggested a survival benefit in patients with molecular relapse given pre-emptive therapy compared with those treated at the time of overt hematological relapse. ATO-based regimens, seem to be effective for the achievement of a second molecular complete remission (CR). Patients in second molecular CR, are generally considered candidates for autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT), while for those with persistent molecular disease, allogeneic HSCT could be offered if a suitable donor is identified.

Except for sporadic pediatric reports, most of the evidence for the use of HSCT for treatment of relapsed/refractory APL, comes from adult literature. We hereby provide a review of published pediatric data that evaluated the role of HSCT in children with refractory/recurrent APL disease.

Published: April 2022

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the appropriate use of empiric glycopeptide therapy in hematologic malignancy patients with febrile neutropenia (FN).
Materials and Methods: Patients with FN who were hospitalized in our clinic and started empiric glycopeptide therapy were retrospectively analyzed. Empiric glycopeptide treatment initial indications were determined according to 7 specific criteria in the IDSA guidelines. In addition, the duration of glycopeptide use according to initial indications, causative pathogens in culture positivity, frequency of VRE infection, and the mortality rate was identified.
Results: 87 patients were included. Of these, 102 episodes of FN were analyzed. Appropriate use of glycopeptides was observed in 98% of patients. The most common initial indication for glycopeptide was skin or soft-tissue infection, with 52% (n = 53). The mean duration of glycopeptide use was 11 (2–22) days. The duration of glycopeptide use was longer in patients with catheter-related infections than in those with severe mucositis and hemodynamic instability (p = 0,041/p = 0,016). The duration of glycopeptide use was shorter in patients with consolidation therapy than those without consolidation therapy. The mortality rate in culture-positive patients was significantly higher than in those who were culture-negative (p = 0.041). When the patients who were culture-positive and culture-negative were compared, there was no significant difference in the duration of glycopeptide use.
Conclusion: This study showed that the mortality rate was higher in culture-positive patients. Additionally, the use of glycopeptides should be discontinued early with no evidence of gram-positive infection.

Authors: Mandal Anindita , Sharma Suresh K
Published: April 2022

With the advancement in science and technology along with growing demand for emergency medical care, estimation of some unknown factors of interest has become vital in biomedical science and healthcare. Prediction based on a known variable could be applied in making decisions, correcting an error, preventing any risk, or for some achievement. It can be an estimation of needed items and devices; recovery time of a patient, profit or loss of the organization, etc. One of the requiring statistics for this purpose is regression analysis which can identify the influence of one variable on another and calculate the unknown prediction from a familiar one. A present narrative review on regression analysis has been structured by reviewing E-literature, textbooks, unpublished information and practical experience of authors. This article would be useful to the researchers to be updated with more practical information and a needful application of the same.

Authors: Ammar Samar Reda , Ghazy Medhat A. , Mabrouk Maaly M. , Gawaly Amr M.
Published: April 2022

CONTEXT:

One of the most common extra-intestinal signs of ulcerative colitis (UC) disease is anemia, which has a significant influence on patients' quality of life.

AIM:

The aim was to evaluate the role of serum hepcidin and reticulocyte hemoglobin concentration (CHr) in the study of anemia in UC patients.

SUBJECTS AND METHODS:

We recruited 80 UC patients and 30 healthy individuals of matched age and sex as controls. Subjects were subdivided into three groups – Group I: 50 anemic UC patients, Group II: 30 nonanemic UC patients, and Group III: 30 healthy controls.

RESULTS:

CHr showed a statistically highly significant decline in Group I than Groups II and III. Serum hepcidin showed a significant difference between Groups I, II, and III. We reported a significant negative correlation between CHr and severity of UC and extension of UC and a significant positive correlation between CHr and hemoglobin level, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), serum ferritin, and transferrin saturation. While, serum hepcidin had a significant negative correlation with severity and extension of UC and a significant positive correlation with hemoglobin level, MCV, serum ferritin, transferrin saturation, and CHr.

CONCLUSIONS:

CHr had an excellent performance in prediction of iron-restricted anemia and was the test of best performance in prediction of iron-deficiency anemia ± ACD. Serum hepcidin had an excellent performance in prediction of ACD.

Authors: Mones Hayfaa Mohammed , Hassan Meaad Kadhum , Al Hussein Ahmed Bahaa Abd
Published: April 2022

BACKGROUND:

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a chronic multisystem disorder associated with acute and chronic complications that may negatively impact the quality of life (QoL). The study aimed to assess the health-related QoL (HRQoL) of patients with SCD on hydroxyurea (HU) and the factors affecting HRQoL domains.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

This case-control study included 174 patients with SCD (12–18-year-old); 87 were on HU for at least 1 year and 87 were not receiving HU. It also included 174 healthy adolescents of the same age group. The HRQoL was assessed using the Short Form 36 Health Survey version 2 (SF-36v2). A multivariate linear regression analysis was performed to assess the independent effect of studied variables on HRQoL dimensions.

RESULTS:

Patients with SCD who were not on HU were found to have significantly lower SF-36 v2 scores (all domains) compared to those on HU and control group, P < 0.001. While patients on HU had significantly lower SF-36 v2 scores in physical functioning, role physical (RP), general health, and physical health component score only compared to the control group, P < 0.001. Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed significant associations between duration of HU therapy and RP (R2 = 0.208, P = 0.021) and mental health component score (R2 = 0.389, P = 0.047) and between hemoglobin levels with social functioning (R2 = 0.370, P = 0.023).

CONCLUSIONS:

HU has improved the HRQoL of SCD patients, in almost all domains, in addition to the improvement in many disease-related complications, mainly painful episodes. The positive impact of HU on HRQoL was significantly associated with the duration of therapy.

Published: April 2022

Background/Objectives:

Migrations are among the most complex social phenomena in the history of mankind. In Latin America, the Venezuelan migration (VM) of the last two decades has altered the emotional dynamics of the migrant themselves and the populations of host countries such as Colombia, Ecuador, and Perú. In order to point out strategies of management and prevention, this review examines the sociocultural variables at play during the process, and the main mental health problems faced by the VM protagonists in these three Andean countries. Methods: This is a narrative/scoping review of diverse and reliable information sources about the VM in the three countries. Data are grouped in two sections: sociocultural variables and specific mental health impact.

Results:

Findings reflect both qualitative and quantitative information about reasons to migrate, educational level, living conditions and response from host communities, as well as mental illnesses prevalence related to experiences such as victimization by discriminatory/xenophobic behaviors, criminalization, and abuses.

Conclusions:

The impact of the VM has been intense and multiform on both migrant and host populations, unveiling individual, collective, social/community, and government/administrative vulnerabilities. National and international agencies must propitiate collaborative research and public/mental health initiatives for a better management of general and specific aspects of the process.

Neuroauriculotherapy: Framework and Remarks for a possible use in Voice Medicine
Authors: Sulis Giulio Giovanni , Murgia Maria Paola , Mecorio Francesco , Gucciardo Alfonso Gianluca
Published: April 2022

Aim. Neuroauriculotherapy (NAT) is a branch of medicine, which, thanks to its diagnostic and therapeutic value, is a powerful tool at the service of both physician and patient. In our experience, as it is discussed in this article, neuroauriculotherapy can have successful applications in voice science and in phoniatrics. The aim of this article is to open a discussion about possible applications of neuroauriculotherapy in voice medicine.
Introduction. From the diagnostic point of view, it is possible to explore, with a palpeur (i.e., a tool that provides a constant pressure) or a “spot-hunter”, the presence of a perturbation into a particular organ or area, and its return to normal during treatment. Indeed, at the level of the ear auricle, representations of an organ, its innervation, its muscular components, etc., are fixed. These spots or voxels correspond absolutely to the respective sensory, motor, visceral, among other spots. Therefore, if any abnormal potential comes from the periphery, it will illuminate the spots both at the cortical level and in the pavilion —a real display with a constantly active touch screen. The spot can be treated with needles in the context of a neurophysiological strategy to send a message to the brain.
Reflection. NAT appears to be a good method to improve the treatment of voice problems, enhancing the results of other therapies based on drugs or rehab and inducing relaxation. In neuroauriculotherapy, the ear is used to give the brain orders in a process which has a logical basis in neurophysiology.
Conclusion. Diseases of the vocal tract can be dysfunctional or organic. According to our clinical experience, we can say that neuroauriculotherapy can be used in both cases. Neuroauriculotherapy is also extremely effective in voice therapy, both alone and in combination with other therapies, as there is no conflict among them.

O ulogama „zelenih“ poreza kao ekonomskih instrumenata za zaštitu životne sredine
Authors:   University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Law, Stojanović Predrag
Published: April 2022

For decades states have been accepting and introducing into their legal systems different tax solutions and introducing them into legal systems with the aim of integrating the concept of sustainable development. The corrective role of ecological taxes can be examined in two different ways. Observed from the economic perspective, the most important role of these taxes is to internalize external expenses. From the environmental perspective, these taxes play a stimulative role aiming to continuously promote a rational approach to the use of limited natural resources. The fiscal role of environmental taxes should seem significant only to the extent that it provides additional resources for covering public expenses related to the protection of environment.

Authors:   University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Law, Planojević Nina
Published: April 2022

The subject of the author’s review are four major legal acts passed in April 2020 and the measures they foresee for supressing the COVID-19 epidemics which interfere with constitutionally guaranteed human rights. They are: The decision on declaring the disease COVID-19 inflicted by SARS-CoV-2 virus an infectious disease The Decree on declaring the epidemics of the infectious disease COVID-19, The Decision on declaring the state of emergency, The Decree on measures taken during the state of emergency. The goal of the author’s analysis is to determine whether these acts and measures are in accordance with the Constitution, the Law on the protection of population from infectious diseases and other laws which regulate supressing of epidemics. The analysis of each of these four acts are presented as a separate part of the paper. In the conslusion, the author states that generally all these acts that Serbia passed to combat COVID–19 virus were legally based, with the note that the justification for introducing this scope of restrictive measures legal professionals could not formulate independently, but only in cooperation with medical professionals.

Published: April 2022

This study investigated the effect of carbohydrate-based corn diets with chromium chloride hexahydrate supplementation on nutrient digestibility and enzyme activity in major carps (Cirrhinus mrigala, Catla catla, and Labeo rohita) for a period of 90 days. One control (T1) and five experimental diets (T2, T3, T4, T5, T6) were prepared by using gelatinized and non-gelatinized corn with the combination of various levels (0.0, 0.6, and 0.8 mg/kg) of CrCl3H12O6. After acclimatization with a control diet (T1) (32% CP), twenty fingerlings of these species were randomly stocked in eighteen digestibility tanks, each with one replicate. At the end of the trial, results showed that gelatinized corn with chromium supplementation significantly enhanced (P<0.05) digestibility of nutrients and enzyme activities (amylase and protease) in liver and gut in all treated groups. Crude protein (76.05±0.54), crude lipid (84.53±0.46), carbohydrate (69.15±2.19), and gross energy (76.92±0.74) showed the highest apparent digestibility in Labeo rohita as compared to Catla catla and Cirrhinus mrigala. While highest amylase (liver:3.27±0.126 U/ml and gut: 1.29±0.045 U/ml) and protease activity (liver:1.22±0.116 U/ml and gut 3.42±0.087 U/ml) was recorded in Catla catla subsequently followed by Labeo rohita and Cirrhinus mrigala. Among the treatments, highest amylase activity was observed in the corn gelatinized group at 0.6 mg/kg chromium level, while maximum protease activity was observed at 0.8 mg/kg of chromium level (gelatinized group). Comparison among gelatinized and non-gelatinized corn diets suggested that gelatinization in fish feed performed best as a carbohydrate energy source with chromium supplementation at an appropriate level (0.6 mg/kg) for three major carps as compared to non-gelatinized corn.

Authors: Ali Hina , Saleem Sahibzadi Sidra , Mouneer Salma , Shahwar Dur-a-
Published: April 2022

This paper tries to evaluate the economic importance of foreign inflows in determining the real effective exchange rate. Monetary policy plays a substantial role in determining the stability of prices, trade and foreign inflows like foreign direct investment, personal remittances, and foreign aid. In this study, the causal relationship is analyzed among policy variables and control variables. The study used secondary time series data from 1960-to 2020. Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) and Philips Perron (PP) unit root tests are used to check the stationary of the variables. Results showed that all variables are stationary at the level I (0) and the first difference I (1). The auto regressive distributive lag (ARDL) approach and Granger Causality approach is discussed to find cointegration and causality respectively. ARDL Bound test reveals the cointegration existence among the variables. ARDL results suggest that foreign inflows (Foreign Direct Investment, Foreign Aid, Personal Remittances), Trade and Inflation showed a significant relationship with Real Effective Exchange Rate in the long run. Granger Causality suggested the existence of Causality among Foreign Aid and Real Effective Exchange Rate, Foreign Direct Investment and Foreign Aid, Trade and Remittances. The results of the study are found in contradiction with the law of one price.

Published: April 2022

Within a field, capital and habitus of individuals has great impact in structuring their future practices. Therefore, it can be connoted that field, capital, and habitus all are relational terms and it is not possible to understand these terms by separating them from one another. This study was conducted to explore the role of field in social reproduction among students. This study was qualitative and phenomenological design was used as it examines human experiences through the descriptions provided by the people involved. Teachers teaching at secondary and higher secondary in the two streams of schools (ICT-based public and private) were the population for the study. A total of 24 teachers were randomly selected by using the sample selection rule of Gay and Diehl (1992) as a sample of the study. Data were collected in three rounds through self- constructed in-depth interview guide. The data were analyzed through thematic analysis. Findings indicate that effective instructional practices of teachers can enable students to improve the cultural capital of students coming from diverse cultures/backgrounds. Furthermore, it was found that by improving the critical thinking, problem-solving, and reasoning skills of students, both types of schools are trying their level best to improve the academic performance of students that leads to strengthening their academic capital. The paper suggests that to further strengthen the role of field in the academic and cultural capital of students in Pakistani schools teachers need to deal effectively with students of diverse cultures.

Diagnosis and management of polycystic ovary syndrome: Perspectives of
clinicians in Singapore
Authors: Teoh Wei Shan , Ramu Deepika , Indran Inthrani Raja , Chua Marvin Wei Jie , Thu Win Pa Pa , Yong Eu-Leong
Published: April 2022

Introduction: To harmonise the diagnostic processes of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and enable
clinicians to provide better patient care, it is critical to understand the knowledge gaps in PCOS diagnosis.
We evaluated how clinicians in endocrinology, family medicine, general practice and gynaecology
diagnose PCOS.
Methods: This cross-sectional survey involved 208 clinicians from specific subspecialties across various
healthcare settings in Singapore.
Results: A total of 160 responses were included in the final analysis. Among all the diagnostic criteria,
the Rotterdam 2003 criteria was most frequently used (66.3%). More than half of the gynaecologists
reported having a standardised workplace protocol while the majority from other specialties reported
otherwise. A large percentage of respondents (60.5%) were unable to identify the correct PCOS
clinical features, which is concerning. Only 8.8% of respondents used clinical and biochemical
hyperandrogenism, menstrual disturbances and pelvic ultrasound to diagnose PCOS without performing
unnecessary and incorrect investigations. Most clinicians recognised insulin resistance/type 2 diabetes
mellitus and fertility problems as complications while only a few recognised psychological complications.
Many clinicians (37.3%) sought standardisation of PCOS diagnosis and management guidelines for
improvement in PCOS care and 81.9% of respondents would appreciate standardised educational
materials.
Conclusion: This is the first study to the best of our knowledge that gives an insight into the diagnostic
and management processes of PCOS among various healthcare institutions in Singapore. This study calls
for greater harmonisation of diagnostic processes and holistic evidence-based management of patients
with PCOS through standardised workplace protocols and patient education resources.

From the research conducted in the filling section, it was found that two medical record officers with a D III education level in Medical Records and Health Information who had worked for a long time ranged from 4-5 years. But have never received training from a hospital. There is no use of tracers, color codes, and expedition books, only outpatient register books. There is a budget for facilities and infrastructure as well as shelves. SOP for storing and retrieving medical records has been going well. An open medical record shelf made of wood and a medical record folder that is quite thick and has bones in it. We recommend that the hospital filling section use tracers and expedition books in order to minimize missfile events, conduct training for officers and increase the number of existing shelves so that medical records do not pile up and missfile events do not occur again.

Paraplegia is rarely reported as a consequence of isolated blunt head trauma. We report a case of a 28-years old patient admitted to our department after a traumatic brain injury. On admission he presented a paraparesis without sensory disturbance in both legs. Spine CT (Computed Tomography) scan and MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) scan of the spine were both normal. Brain CT scan and MRI showed bilateral precentral gyri contusion. Early rehabilitation was key to quick motor recovery. Our case highlights traumatic brain injury as a differential diagnosis of paraplegia.
