Published: November 2023

Background and Objectives:

Odontoidectomy is a surgical procedure indicated in the setting of various pathologies, with the main goal of decompressing the ventral brain stem and spinal cord as a result of irreducible compression at the craniovertebral junction. The endoscopic endonasal approach has been increasingly used as an alternative to the transoral approach as it provides a straightforward, panoramic, and direct approach to the odontoid process. In addition, intraoperative ultrasound (US) guidance is a technique that can optimize safety and surgical outcomes in this context. It is used as an adjunct to neuronavigation and provides intraoperative confirmation of decompression of craniovertebral junction structures in real time. The authors aim to present the use and safe application of real-time intraoperative US guidance during endonasal endoscopic resection of a retro-odontoid pannus.

Methods:

A retrospective chart review of a single case was performed and presented herein as a case report and narrated operative video.

Results:

A minimally invasive US transducer was used intraoperatively to guide the resection of a retro-odontoid pannus and confirm spinal cord decompression in real time. Postoperative examination of the patient revealed immediate neurological improvement.

Conclusions:

Intraoperative ultrasonography is a well described and useful modality in neurosurgery. However, the use of intraoperative US guidance during endonasal endoscopic approaches to the craniovertebral junction has not been previously described. As demonstrated in this technical note, the authors show that this imaging modality can be added to the ever-evolving armamentarium of neurosurgeons to safely guide the decompression of neural structures within the craniocervical junction with good surgical outcomes.

Published: November 2023

Background:

Chiari malformation (CM) is a cluster of related developmental anomalies of the posterior fossa ranging from asymptomatic to fatal. Cranial and spinal decompression can help alleviate symptoms of increased cerebrospinal fluid pressure and correct spinal deformity. As surgical intervention for CM increases in frequency, understanding predictors of reoperation may help optimize neurosurgical planning.

Materials and Methods:

This was a retrospective analysis of the prospectively collected Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project’s California State Inpatient Database years 2004–2011. Chiari malformation Types 1–4 (queried with ICD-9 CM codes) with associated spinal pathologies undergoing stand-alone spinal decompression (queried with ICD-9 CM procedure codes) were included. Cranial decompressions were excluded.

Results:

One thousand four hundred and forty-six patients (29.28 years, 55.6% of females) were included. Fifty-eight patients (4.01%) required reoperation (67 reoperations). Patients aged 40–50 years had the most reoperations (11); however, patients aged 15–20 years had a significantly higher reoperation rate than all other groups (15.5% vs. 8.2%, P = 0.048). Female gender was significantly associated with reoperation (67.2% vs. 55.6%, P = 0.006). Medical comorbidities associated with reoperation included chronic lung disease (19% vs. 6.9%, P < 0.001), iron deficiency anemia (10.3% vs. 4.1%, P = 0.024), and renal failure (3.4% vs. 0.9%, P = 0.05). Associated significant cluster anomalies included spina bifida (48.3% vs. 34.8%, P = 0.035), tethered cord syndrome (6.9% vs. 2.1%, P = 0.015), syringomyelia (12.1% vs. 5.9%, P = 0.054), hydrocephalus (37.9% vs. 17.7%, P < 0.001), scoliosis (13.8% vs. 6.4%, P = 0.028), and ventricular septal defect (6.9% vs. 2.3%, P = 0.026).

Conclusions:

Multiple medical and CM-specific comorbidities were associated with reoperation. Addressing them, where possible, may aid in improving CM surgery outcomes.

Background:

In the cervical nerve sheath tumor (NST) surgery with dumbbell extension of Eden type 2 or 3, selection of anterior, posterior, or combined approach remains controversial.

Objectives:

This technical note aimed to propose possible advantages of the posterior unilateral approach (PUA). Methods: Six patients who underwent the surgical treatment of cervical NSTs with dumbbell extension of Eden type 2 or 3 were included. The critical surgical steps included (1) complete separation of extradural and intradural procedures, (2) careful peeling of the neural membranes (epineurium and perineurium) from the tumor surface in the extradural procedure, (3) complete removal of the extradural tumor within the neural membranes, (4) intradural disconnection of tumor origin, and (5) intentional tumor removal up to the vertebral artery (VA), i.e., the VA line.

Results:

The tumor location of dumbbell extension was Eden types 2 and 3 in two and four patients. Gross total resection was achieved in two patients and intentional posterior removal of the tumor to the VA line was achieved in the remaining four patients. No vascular or neural injuries associated with surgical procedures occurred. Postoperative neurological assessment revealed no symptomatic aggravation in all patients. No secondary surgery was performed during the study period.

Conclusion:

PUA was safe and less invasive for functional recovery and tumor resection, if the anatomical relationship between the tumor and VA is clearly understood. The VA line is an important anatomical landmark to limit the extent of tumor resection.

Published: November 2023

Purpose Radial probe endobronchial ultrasound (RP-EBUS) accurately locates peripheral lung lesions (PLLs) during transbronchial biopsy (TBB). We performed an updated meta-analysis of the diagnostic yield of TBB for PLLs using RP-EBUS to generate recommendations for the development of the Korean Association of Lung Cancer guidelines.Materials and Methods We systematically searched MEDLINE and EMBASE (from January 2013 to December 2022), and performed a meta-analysis using R software. The diagnostic yield was evaluated by dividing the number of successful diagnoses by the total lesion number. Subgroup analysis was performed to identify related factors.Results Forty-one studies with a total of 13,133 PLLs were included. The pooled diagnostic yield of RP-EBUS was 0.72 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.70 to 0.75). Significant heterogeneity was observed among studies (χ2=292.38, p < 0.01, I2=86.4%). In a subgroup analysis, there was a significant difference in diagnostic yield based on RP-EBUS findings (within, adjacent to, invisible), with a risk ratio of 1.45 (95% CI, 1.23 to 1.72) between within and adjacent to, 4.20 (95% CI, 1.89 to 9.32) between within and invisible, and 2.59 (95% CI, 1.32 to 5.01) between adjacent to and invisible. There was a significant difference in diagnostic yield based on lesion size, histologic diagnosis, computed tomography (CT) bronchus sign, lesion character, and location from the hilum. The overall complication rate of TBB with RP-EBUS was 6.8% (bleeding, 4.5%; pneumothorax, 1.4%).Conclusion Our study showed that TBB with RP-EBUS is an accurate diagnostic tool for PLLs with good safety profiles, especially for PLLs with within orientation on RP-EBUS or positive CT bronchus sign.
Truncations of generalized shift-invariant systems
Authors: Christensen Ole , Garcia Alvarez Pablo , Kim Rae Young
Published: November 2023

We provide conditions under which a generalized shift-invariant (GSI) system can be approximated by a GSI system for which the generators have compact support in the Fourier domain. The approximation quality will be measured in terms of the Bessel bound (upper frame bound) for the difference between the two GSI systems. In particular, this leads to easily verifiable conditions for a perturbation of a GSI system to preserve the frame property.
Структура квантовых поправок и точные результаты в суперсимметричных теориях, выявленные с помощью регуляризации высшими ковариантными производными
Authors: Stepanyantz Konstantin Viktorovich
Published: November 2023

Дается обзор некоторых недавних результатов исследования квантовых поправок в суперсимметричных теориях, выявленных с помощью регуляризации высшими ковариантными производными, предложенной А. А. Славновым. В частности, демонстрируется, что $\beta$-функция $\mathcal{N}=1$ суперсимметричных теорий связана с аномальной размерностью суперполей материи соотношением Новикова-Шифмана-Вайнштейна-Захарова, если теория регуляризована высшими ковариантными производными и ренормгрупповые функции определены в терминах голых констант связи, поскольку соответствующие петлевые поправки задаются интегралами от двойных полных производных в импульсном пространстве. Для стандартных ренормгрупповых функций показано, что во всех петлях схема перенормировки Новикова-Шифмана-Вайнштейна-Захарова дается HD+MSL перенормировочным предписанием, когда регуляризация высшими ковариантными производными дополняется минимальными вычитаниями логарифмов. Кратко описывается применение этих результатов для прецизионных вычислений в различных суперсимметричных теориях.
Abdominal compartment syndrome in critically ill patients

Published: November 2023

Intra-abdominal hypertension can have severe consequences, including abdominal compartment syndrome, which can contribute to multi-organ failure. An increase in intra-abdominal hypertension is influenced by factors such as diminished abdominal wall compliance, increased intraluminal content, and certain systemic conditions. Regular measurement of intra-abdominal pressure is essential, and particular attention must be paid to patient positioning. Nonsurgical treatments, such as decompression of intraluminal content using a nasogastric tube, percutaneous drainage, and fluid balance optimization, play crucial roles. Additionally, point-of-care ultrasonography aids in the diagnosis and treatment of intra-abdominal hypertension. Emphasizing the importance of regular measurements, timely decompressive laparotomy is a definitive, but complex, treatment option. Balancing the urgency of surgical intervention against potential postoperative complications is challenging.

Authors: Jeon Yong Hyuk , Lee Bongjin , Kim You Sun , Jang Won Jin , Park June Dong
Published: November 2023

Background: Various rapid response systems have been developed to detect clinical deterioration in patients. Few studies have evaluated single-parameter systems in children compared to scoring systems. Therefore, in this study we evaluated a single-parameter system called the acute response system (ARS).Methods: This retrospective study was performed at a tertiary children’s hospital. Patients under 18 years old admitted from January 2012 to August 2023 were enrolled. ARS parameters such as systolic blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, and whether the ARS was activated were collected. We divided patients into two groups according to activation status and then compared the occurrence of critical events (cardiopulmonary resuscitation or unexpected intensive care unit admission). We evaluated the ability of ARS to predict critical events and calculated compliance. We also analyzed the correlation between each parameter that activates ARS and critical events.Results: The critical events prediction performance of ARS has a specificity of 98.5%, a sensitivity of 24.0%, a negative predictive value of 99.6%, and a positive predictive value of 8.1%. The compliance rate was 15.6%. Statistically significant increases in the risk of critical events were observed for all abnormal criteria except low heart rate. There was no significant difference in the incidence of critical events.Conclusions: ARS, a single parameter system, had good specificity and negative predictive value for predicting critical events; however, sensitivity and positive predictive value were not good, and medical staff compliance was poor.

Authors: Kapoor Shrey , Kolchinski Anna , Gusdon Aaron M. , Premraj Lavienraj , Cho Sung-Min
Published: November 2023

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a life-saving intervention for patients with refractory cardiorespiratory failure. Despite its benefits, ECMO carries a significant risk of neurological complications, including acute brain injury (ABI). Although standardized neuromonitoring and neurological care have been shown to improve early detection of ABI, the inability to perform neuroimaging in a timely manner is a major limitation in the accurate diagnosis of neurological complications. Therefore, blood-based biomarkers capable of detecting ongoing brain injury at the bedside are of great clinical significance. This review aims to provide a concise review of the current literature on plasma biomarkers for ABI in patients on ECMO support.
A QoS-aware framework for spectrum characterization and switching decision in cognitive radio networks
Authors: Asuquo D.E. , Umoh U.A. , Ekpenyong M.E. , Edet G.O.
Published: November 2023

The increasing demand for seamless wireless services coupled with underutilization of limited spectrum due to fixed channel allocation policy have posed numerous challenges to wireless communications. There is need to design appropriate channel allocation strategies for continuous communication by mobile users for higher spectral efficiency. Cognitive radio network (CRN) offers a solution to the spectrum scarcity problem inherent in 4G and other networks through dynamic spectrum access, by allowing unlicensed secondary users (SUs) with cognitive devices to opportunistically access the spectrum holes when the licensed primary users (PUs) are not occupying them. Often times, measurements taken by SUs during the sensing process are uncertain due to multipath fading, shadowing and varying channel conditions. This results in imprecise spectrum detection and selection by SUs during switching decisions causing incessant spectrum handoff and undesirable ping-pong effect. In this paper, a support vector machine (SVM) classifier is used to categorize spectrum into two classes of busy and idle. Then, based on heterogeneous quality of service (QoS) requirements of the SUs, dynamic activities of PUs, and the fluctuating channel state information, a QoS-aware Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) framework is developed for spectrum switching decision using underlay spectrum access model. SVM predicted spectrum holes with 98.8% accuracy. ANFIS model yielded a 91.62% accuracy in the task of allocating spectrum holes to SUs for coexistent with PUs. Results further indicate that the intelligent framework can ensure fairness among SUs, reduce interference, improve throughput, and spectral efficiency. It can be deployed in disaster relief and emergency, public safety, and battlefield environments.

Published: November 2023

This article covers key developments in EU merger control in 2021 and 2022. These include the publication of the EC’s Guidance on the Article 22 EUMR referral mechanism and the developments in the Illumina/GRAIL case. There were also important CJEU judgments, including on competitive assessment of transactions by the EC as well as breaches of the standstill obligations by the merger parties. In 2021 and 2022, the EC adopted six Phase II conditional merger clearances, most of which were based on structural, rather than behavioural, remedies. The EC also prohibited two transactions, and a number of deals were abandoned in particular because of issues identified by the EC. Other main developments include the EC’s decision on Hungary’s violation of Article 21 EUMR as well the publication of the draft revised Market Definition Notice.
Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak ve Postkolonyal Teori Üzerine Notlar
Authors: AKBAŞ Arif
Published: November 2023

Bu makalede ünlü Hint filozofu ve entelektüeli Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak’ın yapıtları yorumlayıcı yaklaşım çerçevesinde tartışılıp incelenmiştir. Spivak, Hintli bir bilim kadını, edebiyat teorisyeni ve feminist eleştirmendir. En etkili postkolonyal entelektüellerden biri olarak kabul edilen Spivak, en çok “Madun Konuşabilir mi?” adlı makalesiyle tanınmaktadır. Spivak, postkolonyal teorinin kurucularından biri olarak kabul edilir. Çalışmaları 19. ve 20. yüzyıl edebiyatı, feminizm ve Marksizm, yapısöküm ve küreselleşmeye odaklanmaktadır. Postkolonyal teori (postkolonyalizm), sömürgeciliğin kültürel mirasının analizinden oluşan disiplinlerarası bir araştırma alanıdır. Postkolonyal teorinin başlıca temsilcileri Edward Said, Gayatri Spivak ve Homi Baba’dır. Postkolonyal teori çıkışı itibariyle post-yapısalcılıkla da yakından ilişkilidir. Spivak’ın önderliğindeki Subaltern Çalışma Grubu yaklaşımın geliştirilmesinde etkili olmuştur. Postkolonyal çalışmalar, 1980’li yıllarda Amerika Birleşik Devletleri’nde, daha sonra Avrupa’da sömürgeciliğin bıraktığı kültürel mirasa tepki olarak ortaya çıkan bir araştırma alanıdır. Spivak’ın çalışmaları postmodern söylemin eleştirel yaklaşımının bir parçasıdır. Çalışmamız ülkemizde yeterince tanınmayan bir konuyu ve ismi ele almış olması itibariyle değerlidir.
Multiple RNA-binding proteins associated with long interspersed element-1 encoded ORF1p are targeted by the autoimmune response in systemic lupus erythematosus

Published: November 2023

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a relatively common autoimmune disease characterized by the presence of autoantibodies against nucleic acids and proteins that associate with them, such as the ORF1p protein encoded by the long interspersed element-1 (LINE-1 or L1). Because well-known lupus autoantigens like RO60 associate with ORF1p in macromolecular assemblies, together with many other RNA-binding proteins, we tested whether these other proteins are also recognized by IgG autoantibodies in SLE patients. By ELISAs and immunoblots, we detected autoantibodies in the serum of SLE patients recognizing proteins encoded by LARP7, MOV10, ZCCHC3, MEPCE, YARS2, RPL18A, RPL27A, and H2BC17 (p<0.05), but not CORO1B, DDX6, PABPC1, and PABPC4, and were mostly absent or low in healthy controls. The titers of antibodies against RO60, LARP7, MOV10, and MEPCE were higher (p<0.05) in those patients who also had anti-ORF1p autoantibodies. These antibodies also correlated with dsDNA antibodies, the presence of arthritis, and higher levels of type I interferons. A cluster analysis revealed that all these autoantibodies collectively identified patients with more active disease. We conclude that patients with SLE have elevated IgG autoantibodies not only against the L1-encoded ORF1p, but also against 8 other proteins that co-localize with ORF1p in RNA-rich granules. These autoantibodies are higher in patients who have autoantibodies to ORF1p and together correlate with elevated type I interferon levels. Our findings are compatible with the notion that ORF1p-containing ribonucleoprotein granules are a target of the autoimmunity in SLE.

Authors: Adlin Falih Novayandi
Published: November 2023

The research aims to review the factors that influence food waste processing using BSF larvae. Black soldier fly (BSF) larvae have shown promise in processing food waste. Several factors affect the processing of food waste using BSF larvae, including the bacterial dynamics in the residue, substrate nutrient contents, larval gut microbiota, and the nutritional prerequisites of the larvae. Research has focused on identifying groups of bacteria potentially associated with BSF larvae residues and their rearing performance. Additionally, studies have evaluated the efficacy of different substrates, such as tofu by-products, food waste, and vegetables, in promoting black soldier fly growth and conversion efficiency. The moisture content of food waste, salinity, and the source of diets have also been identified as factors affecting the treatment efficiency of food waste by black soldier fly larvae. These factors are essential to consider when optimizing the use of BSF larvae for food waste processing.

In the limited use of natural resources, companies must use the intelligence of their human resources to produce environmentally friendly and energy-efficient products and avoid environmental damage for the company's survival. This study investigates how green intellectual capital and innovation affect the competitive advantage of companies operating in the primary consumer goods industry. The research question is whether companies need more natural resources that are limited in quantity and quality. To ensure business sustainability, increased green intellectual capital, expensive green innovation, and long-term research are needed. Primary consumer goods sector manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange (BEI) from 2018 to 2020 are the subject of the research used. With the purposive sampling method, 62 companies were used, thus obtaining 179 samples. Research data is obtained from annual reports, sustainability reports, or company websites on the Indonesian Stock Exchange (BEI). The data analysis model is track analysis. Studies show that green intellectual capital affects competitive advantages, while green innovation does not. Innovative green innovations must be well integrated into the corporate accounting system to ensure corporate survival. This will involve increased research and development to improve resource access by increasing R&D.

Teaching at The Right Level sebagai Wujud Pemikiran Ki Hadjar Dewantara di Era Paradigma Baru Pendidikan
Authors: Faradila Anisa , Priantari Ika , Qamariyah Farizatul
Published: November 2023

Ki Hadjar Dewantara, a descendant of the aristocracy of the Yogyakarta Palace, with a profound concern for education, has given rise to a philosophical concept of National Education. According to Ki Hadjar Dewantara, education is a process of guiding every inherent potential in each student to achieve the highest level of well-being and happiness as part of society. Education, as a guidance in the growth of a child's life, reflects Ki Hadjar Dewantara's belief that every development of a student is something beyond the control or will of a teacher. Just as National Education, based on Ki Hadjar Dewantara's thoughts, the government is currently constructing a new paradigm of education that is flexible for teachers in creating classroom learning through the Teaching at The Right Level (TaRL) approach. The alignment of the flexible characteristics in the new paradigm of education with the philosophical education of Ki Hadjar Dewantara is a new hope in the development of education in Indonesia. To determine the compatibility of the concept of the new education paradigm with the implementation in the field, it is necessary to further examine the alignment of Ki Hadjar Dewantara's thoughts with the implementation of TaRL in the new education paradigm. This study employs literature review research. The results show that there is alignment between the philosophical thinking of Ki Hadjar Dewantara and the implementation of TaRL in the new education paradigm at the Senior High School level. Based on this literature review research, it can be concluded that the implementation of TaRL in schools can be considered as a manifestation of Ki Hadjar Dewantara's thoughts.

Inventory management plays a pivotal role in the coconut farming business, directly influencing sales and income. An essential component of this management is warehousing, which not only affect revenue but also involves suppliers in the coconut storage process. Warehousing management and technology are two elements that can help companies operate more effectively and efficiently. This research focuses on efforts to improve warehouse management efficiency in the agricultural sector, particularly at Banio Lahewa, a company that operates as a coconut supplier in a small village with limited resources. Currently, the company still records data manually and lacks a real-time system to monitor demand patterns, stock rotation, and restocking frequency in the warehouse. This situation is caused by uncertainty about the products entering the warehouse, leading to the company’s focus being more limited to daily operational issues rather than future planning. To address this challenge, this research uses future event prediction methods, specifically forecasting by applying two neural network models: the Feed Forward Neural Network and the Long Short Term Memory. The implementation of this system is expected to provide new insights to the company, enabling them to be more adaptive in efficiently managing warehouse systems. With an understanding of patterns and predictions of future events, it is expected that the company can be more prepared and responsive to changes in customer demand and able to expand products more quickly. The results of this research are expected to make a positive contribution to the company, helping them optimize warehouse management and become more adaptive to market dynamics.

Published: November 2023

The article informs about the discovery of the remains of a circular structure called a rondel, in this case featuring a double rondel in ‘Padělky’ field near Uherský Ostroh (SE Moravia, Czech Republic) and offers the results of non-destructive methods of research performed there in 2016–2020. The double circular complex was discovered during an analysis of satellite images of the Earth’s surface and subsequently verified by geophysical prospection. The resulting magnetogram revealed two ditches interrupted by five presumptive entrances at the site, along with dozens of anomalies that can be
interpreted as potential archaeological features. Multiple-phase prehistoric occupation at the site was later proved by surface surveys. Occupation of the earlier phase of the Linear Pottery culture and the Lengyel culture has been documented. The age of the rondel itself remains an open question for the time being, however; it can only be clarified by a regular excavation. The present study discusses the existing possibilities of dating from various perspectives. Besides a probable dating the rondel to the Lengyel culture, a later, Early Eneolithic or Early Bronze Age, dating cannot be ruled out either.

Authors: Calica Melissa Prudencio
Published: November 2023

This research delved into the nuanced experiences of a first-time mother. Using the lens of autoethnography, she provided an elaborate narrative of how she navigated the complex social role of motherhood. The study highlighted how she negotiated the inherent contradictions within the motherhood experience as both liberating and restrictive. The exploration focused on uncovering the intricate web of social and cultural influences that shaped and influenced her mothering practices, particularly within the context of the good mother ideology and the prevailing culture of intensive mothering which imposes idealized standards of motherhood. A significant emphasis of the study was made on her dual role as a mother and a teacher, examining her roles as a mediator of nature and culture. The autoethnography further unveiled the intricacies of conflicts, contradictions, and complexities that emerged from her interactions with significant others and society in general. The implication of this research is multifaceted and extends beyond the individual narrative of the first-time mother, offering a nuanced analysis of the intricate connection between personal agency and external pressures in the realm of motherhood. The examination of these intricacies calls for a reevaluation of the expectations and standards surrounding motherhood. By highlighting the impacts of social and cultural factors on mothering practices, this study emphasizes the need to critically assess and redefine prevailing standards to be able to account for the diversity in maternal experiences. Overall, the study advocates for a more inclusive approach to understanding the varied experiences of motherhood.

Pemerintah Indonesia telah menerapkan desentralisasi yang luas sejak tahun 2004. Namun, banyak orang melihatnya dari sudut pandang yang sangat negatif. Pandangan bahwa otonomi daerah telah membawa lahir raja-raja kecil yang cenderung menyalahgunakan kekuasaan yang diserahkan oleh pemerintah pusat. Otonomi daerah juga telah disalahgunakan untuk menciptakan kebijakan diskriminatif yang menyebarkan primordialisme. Sangat sedikit orang yang melihat kebijakan otonomi daerah dari sisi positif. Makalah ini membahas inovasi yang diciptakan oleh pemerintah daerah dalam merespons kewenangan yang diterima dari pemerintah pusat. Beberapa pemerintah daerah telah menggunakan peluang ini untuk mengembangkan kebijakan yang meningkatkan layanan publik untuk menarik investor. Beberapa kasus dibahas untuk menunjukkan bahwa beberapa pemerintah daerah sangat serius dalam reformasi kebijakan mereka. Namun, studi perbandingan kasus dari distrik lokal akan disajikan untuk memahami implementasinya secara lebih mendalam. Bima adalah distrik kecil dan miskin.

Objective:The mean of pelvis diameters and development of pelvis: It is known that it varies depending on many factors such as race, body size, gender, nutrition, movement rate and hormone. In this context, the study was carried out to examine the cavum pelvis of different breeds of dogs using multidetector computed tomography (MDCT).
Materials and Methods:A total of 43 dogs, 19 different breeds, were used in the study. Pelvis region was scanned with a 64-detector MDCT device with a section thickness of 0.625 mm. The obtained images were transferred to the RadiAnt DICOM Viewer program to create a three-dimensional model of the cavum pelvis, and then pelvic measurements were taken.
Results: In the pelvimetric examination, it was determined that conjugated Diameter was highest in Kangal Shepherd dogs and vertically Diameter was highest in Kangal Shepherd dogs. The lowest average of both diameters was found in Pomeranian dogs. Pelvis slope formed between these two ages was observed to be highest in Alabai breed dogs with 38° and lowest in Pekingese, Pomeranian and Setter breed dogs with 18°.
Conclusion: it is thought that it will be beneficial for many disciplines, especially gynecology, to reveal the differences between the breeds by comparing the results of the dog breeds whose metric characteristics of the cavum pelvis were examined.

Published: November 2023

A Puericultura é uma estratégia de promoção e prevenção em saúde focada na infância, acompanhando o crescimento e desenvolvimento infantil, identificando precocemente doenças e distúrbios de crescimento, desenvolvimento entre outras, e quando bem executada é capaz de motivar o cuidador da criança a participar das consultas, formando um vínculo importante entre o profissional, cuidador e a criança, facilitando assim na adesão às consultas. O objetivo principal da pesquisa foi identificar os fatores influenciadores na baixa adesão as consultas de puericultura, e posteriormente analisar o perfil sociodemográfico dos pais/cuidadores das crianças menores de 2 anos. Metodologia: pesquisa descritiva e exploratória, de caráter qualitativo realizado com 50 pais e/ou responsáveis de crianças menores de 2 anos, em uma unidade de saúde de um município da região oeste do Paraná. Resultados: observou-se que os responsáveis têm mais de 20 anos de idade e possuem renda mensal de aproximadamente um salário-mínimo, e no que se refere à escolaridade, a maior parte possui ensino médio completo, foi possível durante a pesquisa também identificar que a principal barreira para a baixa adesão está relacionada ao dia e o horário das consultas. Conclusão: diante das dificuldades apontadas pelos pais, notou-se que estas se relacionam à falta de tempo por trabalharem fora de casa ou por conta de suas rotinas particulares, sugere-se a realização de pesquisas que buscam estratégias mais eficazes para se obter uma maior cobertura de crianças em consultas de Puericultura.
