Entre a escrita e a impressão: “A Descrição da Patagônia” de Thomas Falkner
Authors: Bohn Martins Maria Cristina
Published: July 2020

Em 1774 em Hereford, Inglaterra, veio a luz a “Descripcion of Patagonia and Adjoinjing Parts of South America”, obra cuja autoria é atribuída ao religioso Thomas Falkner, sacerdote da Companhia de Jesus no Rio da Prata até 1767 quando, cumprindo a decisão de expulsão da sua Ordem dos territórios castelhanos ditada por Carlos III, regressou ao seu país natal. Escrito em parte por meio da memória do jesuíta, e sendo resultado de suas atividades como membro de uma Ordem religiosa, o livro dever ser entendido todavia, levando em conta que texto sofreu, antes de ser publicado, um acentuado processo de edição por parte de William Combe que assina o prefácio da obra. Assim sendo, este artigo analisa a referida obra discutindo sobre o seu contexto de produção e edição para, depois, refletir brevemente sobre a circulação e recepção do texto entre os contemporâneos.

Tindak Pidana Pencurian dalam Sistem Hukum Indonesia
Authors: amir Sriyanti
Published: July 2020

Pencurian artinya mengambil suatu barang milik orang lain dengan cara melawan hak orang tersebut. Perkembangan tindak pidana pencurian setiap tahun semakin meningkat. Suatu hal yang menjadi dampak negatif dari kemajuan yang telah dicapai oleh setiap negara. Sebagai contoh, di Indonesia sendiri tindak pidana pencurian sering terjadi dikarenakan struktur ekonomi yang semakin memburuk yang disebabkan oleh seringnya terjadi kenaikan harga barang dan inflasi yang cukup tinggi, sedangkan pembagian pendapatan bagi masyarakat tidak merata, dan juga tingginya angka pengangguran yang disebabkan oleh sulitnya mendapatkan pekerjaan. Hal lain yang mendukung seorang melakukan tindak pidana pencurian juga disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor diantaranya adalah pengaruh lingkungan, faktor keluarga, adanya kesempatan untuk melakukan tindak pidana tersebut, serta kurangnya kesadaran terhadap hukum dari si pelaku.
Serial recall
Authors: Hurlstone Mark J.
Published: July 2020

Serial memory refers to the ability to recall a novel sequence of items or events in the correct order. In the laboratory, the dominant tool used to assess this mental faculty is the immediate serial recall (hereafter, ‘serial recall’) task in which participants are given a sequence of typically verbal, visual, or spatial items that they must subsequently recall in their original presentation order. Serial recall is a deceptively simple task—the apparent ease with which people accomplish it masks the wealth and complexity of findings this task has generated, and the computational theories that have been developed to account for them. In this chapter, I review benchmark findings of serial recall that have been observed across the verbal, visual, and spatial short-term memory domains, and I interpret them with reference to the core mechanisms embodied in contemporary computational theories of serial recall. This analysis identifies four mechanisms that are common to the three content domains—namely, position marking, a primacy gradient, competitive queuing, and response suppression. Additionally, evidence suggests that in verbal serial recall both the encoding and retrieval of items is sensitive to item similarity—similarity-sensitive encoding and retrieval—and that item retrieval is accompanied by output interference. By contrast, in visual and spatial serial recall there is evidence for similarity-sensitive retrieval, but the relevant empirical observations that evince similarity-sensitive encoding and output interference are yet to be studied in the visual and spatial domains. I conclude by outlining some challenges for future research.
Multiple full-body tracking for interaction and navigation in social VR
Authors: Schurz Richard , Bull Earl
Published: July 2020

MetaSpace II (MS2) is a social Virtual Reality (VR) system where multiple users can not only see and hear but also interact with each other, grasp and manipulate objects, walk around in space, and get tactile feedback. MS2 allows walking in physical space by tracking each user's skeleton in real-time and allows users to feel by employing passive haptics i.e., when users touch or manipulate an object in the virtual world, they simultaneously also touch or manipulate a corresponding object in the physical world. To enable these elements in VR, MS2 creates a correspondence in spatial layout and object placement by building the virtual world on top of a 3D scan of the real world. Through the association between the real and virtual world, users are able to walk freely while wearing a head-mounted device, avoid obstacles like walls and furniture, and interact with people and objects. Most current virtual reality (VR) environments are designed for a single user experience where interactions with virtual objects are mediated by hand-held input devices or hand gestures. Additionally, users are only shown a representation of their hands in VR floating in front of the camera as seen from a first person perspective. We believe, representing each user as a full-body avatar that is controlled by natural movements of the person in the real world (see Figure 1d), can greatly enhance believability and a user's sense immersion in VR.

Comparative Cognition and Cognitive Ecology in the Classroom
Authors: Lamontagne Steven J , Kuhlmeier Valerie A. , Olmstead Mary C.
Published: July 2020

The scientific study of animal cognition has roots in both experimental psychology and evolutionary biology, with researchers often working in related disciplines such as neuroscience, computing science, or ecology. The interdisciplinary nature of the endeavour is both a strength and a challenge for the field. We begin this review with a brief history of comparative cognition and cognitive ecology, focusing on cognitive processes as a mechanistic link between ethology and behaviourism. We then present a ‘snapshot’ of modern-day undergraduate courses in Canada, the United States of America, and the United Kingdom that focus on animal cognition, highlighting the various course names and host departments. We emphasize the value of keeping (or adding) this subject material within curricula, either as independent courses or as enhanced material in other courses. We also present pedagogical approaches to teaching animal cognition that include techniques in large lecture-based courses and in smaller courses that emphasize hands-on experiential learning.
Hearing Water Temperature: Characterizing the development of nuanced perception of auditory events
Authors: Agrawal Tanushree , Lee Michelle , Calcetas Amanda , Clarke Danielle , Lin Naomi , Schachner Adena
Published: July 2020

Without conscious thought, listeners link events in the world to sounds they hear. We study one surprising example: Adults can judge the temperature of water simply from hearing it being poured. How do these nuanced perceptual skills develop? Is extensive auditory experience required, or are these skills present in early childhood? In Exp.1, adults were exceptionally good at judging whether water was hot vs. cold from pouring sounds (M=93% accuracy; N=104). In Exp.2, we tested this ability in N=113 children aged 3-12 years, and found evidence of developmental change: Age significantly predicted accuracy (p<0.001, logistic regression), such that 3-5 year old children performed at chance while 85% of children age 6+ answered correctly. Overall our data suggest that perception of nuanced differences between auditory events is not part of early-developing cross-modal cognition, and instead develops over the first six years of life.
Validation to Spanish version of the COVID-19 Stress Scale
Authors: Pulido Edgar Guillermo
Published: July 2020

There is a global consensus about the potential of the COVID-19 pandemic to affect people's mental health. In this context, and prior to the formulation of mitigation strategies, tools are required that allow an objective and effective assessment of mental health risk. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the psychometric characteristics of COVID-19 Stress Scale, formulated by Taylor et al. (2020), based on the concept of COVID-19 Stress Syndrome. A national sample of 1214 participating adults was taken in Colombia, who answered a translated version of the scale. Evidence of a hexa-dimensional structure was obtained whose goodness of fit indicators were Chi2 = 1215,759, Sig. =. 000, CMIN / DF = 2.202, RMSEA = .044, NFI = .943, TLI = .964, CFI =. 968 and FMIN = 1,967. Regarding reliability, an α = .924 and Spearman-Brown = .824 were obtained for the entire scale; the reliability indicators of the 6 subscales were also high. The similarities and differences in the findings with respect to the original psychometric study of the scale are discussed, as well as the utility and importance of the instrument as a tool in future efforts to mitigate the psychosocial effects of the pandemic.
Chills in music: A systematic review
Authors: de Fleurian Rémi , Pearce Marcus Thomas
Published: July 2020

Chills are a psychophysiological response which can be experienced when listening to music. They have been of particular interest in scientific research on music because of their association with emotion and pleasure. However, with the literature doubling in size since the last review on the subject, it has become increasingly difficult to gain a broad and integrated understanding of the empirical and theoretical research on music-evoked chills (MECs). Notably, crucial questions remain about the criteria that are necessary and sufficient to characterise MECs. In this article, we systematically review the literature on MECs in order to reconcile diverging opinions and empirical findings on their psychological nature, and to develop a preliminary model that provides a robust framework for future hypothesis-driven research. We explore the context behind current research on MECs, discuss how they relate to emotional and aesthetic responses, assess current empirical measures and paradigms, summarise their physiological and neural correlates, categorise their possible stimulus-driven elicitors, examine how they are affected by individual differences, and evaluate theoretical perspectives about their potential evolutionary causes. We conclude by providing a preliminary model of MECs that suggests different pathways for the experience of MECs, a dataset listing pieces of music reported to elicit MECs in the reviewed literature, and a set of open issues, hypotheses, and recommended approaches for future research.
Opening Up The Tools For Doing Science: The Case Of The Global Open Science Hardware Movement
Authors: Arancio Julieta C.
Published: July 2020

Open science hardware (OSH) is a term frequently used to refer to artifacts, but also to a practice, a discipline and a collective of people worldwide pushing for open access to the design of tools to produce scientific knowledge. The Global Open Science Hardware (GOSH) movement gathers actors from academia, education, the private sector and civil society advocating for OSH to be ubiquitous by 2025. This paper examines the GOSH movement’s emergence and main features through the lens of transitions theory and the grassroots innovation movements framework. GOSH is here described embedded in the context of the wider open hardware movement and analyzed in terms of framings that inform it, spaces opened up for action and strategies developed to open them. It is expected that this approach provides insights on niche development in the particular case of transitions towards more plural and democratic sociotechnical systems.

Published: July 2020

The disclosure of environment related information is an inevitable component of corporate social reporting paradigm. Due to growing awareness to protect environment, firms around the globe are supposed to be involved in activities in protection and betterment of environment. The stakeholder theory suggests for considering stakeholders while making corporate strategies and reporting them information including initiations done in behalf of environmental responsibility. This paper attempts to study the corporate environmental disclosure practice of selected 45 NEPSE “A” listed companies of Nepal. Different ten measures of this environmental theme were considered for analysis. Content analysis was applied to know the extent of disclosure practice of the companies and variance test to examine variations in environmental disclosure of the companies within seven industry types. The result of content analysis indicated that disclosure status of environment information related items is very low and there is a significant variation in environmental disclosure practice of the companies across seven industry types.

Authors: Bhandari Bharat Bahadur , Thapa Bikash Bikram , Ayer Dhirendra , Thapa Suresh , Bista Sanjeeb
Published: July 2020

Introduction: The incidence of small and medium size renal stones is rising. Stone clearance, bleeding, urine leak and infectious complications are major concerns for urologist.  Urologist chooses best technique from list of armamentarium available. Minimally invasive approach like Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) has significantly influenced the renal stone management since 1976. Miniaturisation of the instruments allow more effective and safer alternatives for urolithasis management.

Methods: This is a retrospective study in which the outcome of mini PCNL (mPCNL) was compared with standard PCNL (sPCNL) in management of nephrolithiasis.

Result: There were no significant difference in stone free rate between mPCNL and sPCNL (96.2 ± 3.6% vs 95.3 ± 4.8%). The total operative time was longer in mPCNL (55.2 ± 19.0 minute vs 62 ± 21.0 minute) but the difference was not statistically significant.

Conclusions: Mini PCNL is as effective as standard PCNL with fewer bleeding complications in management of medium sized nephrolithiasis.
A Prospective Study to Assess the Effectiveness of Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy Versus Ureteroscopy for Proximal Ureteral Calculi Between Sizes 5 to 10 mm
Authors: Rayamajhi Bikash Bahadur , Khadka Anjan , Thapa Narayan
Published: July 2020

Introduction: There are various international guidelines for the surgical treatment of upper ureteral calculi. For upper ureteral stone of less than 10 mm size, ESWL and URS are regarded as first line treatment. However, there is lack of national guidelines for appropriate surgical options for such stone in our settings.

Methods: The study was prospective comparative type involving 100 patients who were divided into ESWL and URS groups comprising 50 patients in each. ESWL and URS were performed after confirmation of stone size with ultrasonography and non-contrast enhanced computed tomography. All patients underwent X-ray KUB at one week and six weeks post procedure for confirmation of stone clearance. Those with residual calculi of size < 5 mm were considered stone free. Statistical analysis was done using Graph pad prism version 6.

Results: The mean age of patients in ESWL and URS groups were 41.28 ± 15.3 years and 42.84 ± 16.1 years respectively. The male to female ratio was higher in ESWL group. The mean size of the stone pre ESWL was 8.58 mm and pre URS was 8.44 mm. The percentage of stone clearance at one week and six weeks for ESWL was 56% and 90% respectively whereas for URS, it was more than 90% at both one week and six weeks. The complications were higher with URS (20%) than ESWL (8%).

Conclusions: The ESWL and URS are equally effective in stone clearance. The duration is longer with ESWL and the complications were more in URS group.
Sensitivity Pattern of Gram Negative Bacteria Contaminating Traumatic Wounds: A Retrospective Study in a Tertiary Care Hospital of Kathamandu Valley
Authors: Suwal Satya Narayan , Kaundinnyayana Sammodavardhana , Prajapati Krishna Govinda , Baidya Reena
Published: July 2020

Introduction: Gram negative bacteria are commonly involved in wound infections and are significantly associated with morbidity and mortality because of increasing resistance to commonly used antibacterial agents. This study aims to evaluate the pattern of antibacterial sensitivity of the gram negative bacteria from wound swabs of accidental trauma cases.

Methods: This retrospective study was done by collecting all the culture positive reports for wound swabs of accidental wounds from the microbiology laboratory and analyzing the reports showing growth of gram negative bacteria for frequency of sensitivity to commonly used antibacterial agents.

Results: Culture positivity rate was 21.95% with growth of gram negative bacteria in 79.7% of cases. The most commonly isolated organism was Escherichia coli being 41.3% among gram negative isolates. Highly resistant bacteria were E. coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Acinetobacter spp.

Conclusions: As there is low culture positivity rate for wound swabs obtained before washing the wounds inflicted by accidental trauma, prolonged routine use of prophylactic antibiotic is not justified. Thoroughly washing the wound is very likely to decrease the rate of wound infection further and reduces the need of antibacterial agents. Culture and sensitivity test should guide the treatment when wound is infected because highly resistant gram negative organism may be involved in such cases.

Introduction: Stress fracture of neck of femur is known to occur in athletes and soldiers. From treatment perspective, this is still an unsolved fracture. The purpose of this study is to critically analyse the functional outcome of surgical treatment of stress fracture of neck of femur in military recruits performed by the same surgical team.

Methods: This is a retrospective study of surgically treated femoral neck stress fracture from 1st December 2012 to 1st December 2013. All fractures were fixed with three 6.5 mm cancellous lag screws with washers. For failure of primary fixation or non-union, osteosynthesis with fibular strut graft was performed. Patients were evaluated at six weeks, 12 weeks, six months, 12 months and then yearly for three years. Functional outcome was evaluated by using Harris Hip Score at six months and at final follow-up. The outcome was followed up for six years up to Dec 2019.

Results: There were eight males and one female patient. Mean age of patient was 20.7 years (Range, 19-23 years). Average follow-up period was 67.6 months (range 6-81). Lag screw fixation was done in five cases after closed reduction and in four cases after open reduction. Osteosynthesis with fibular graft was done in two cases. In six cases, fracture united at a mean duration of 9.8 months (Range 6-20). In three cases there was non-union of the fracture with added  infection in one case. Avascular necrosis of femoral head developed in two cases.

Conclusions: Successful surgical treatment of stress fracture of neck of femur requires anatomical reduction and stable interfragmentary compression with lag screws.

Therefore, our study aims to calculate prognostic accuracy of commonly used scoring system SOFA and qSOFA in emergency department as a predictor of mortality among sepsis patients.This was prospective observational study conducted in an emergency department for a period of seven months. 156 patients were studied and descriptive statistical analysis was done. The most common source of infection was respiratory. A positive and moderate correlation was seen between initial SOFA score and qSOFA score. The AUC of SOFA score and qSOFA for predicting the mortality were 0.978 and 0.886 with sensitivity of 96.9% and specificty of 57% for SOFA and sensitivity of 96.9% and specificity of 76.1% for qSOFA.SOFA and qSOFA both proved to be similar as a simple prognostic tool with discriminatory capacity in predicting prognosis in septic patient presenting to emergency department.
A Comparative Clinical Evaluation of the efficacy of two Desensitizing dentifrices in Relieving Dentine Hypersensitivity
Authors: Joshi Rojin , Gautam S , Joshi B
Published: July 2020

Dentinal hypersensitivity has been defined as a short, sharp pain arising from exposed dentine in response to stimuli thermal, evaporative, tactile, chemical or osmotic and which cannot be ascribed to any other form of dental defect or pathology. This is a common clinical condition which may cause patients more distress due to exposure of dentin. There are various management options for this clinical condition which can be either home applied or in office techniques. Various dentifrices are commercially available in the market. The chemical compositions of the dentifrices are different. We conducted this study to compare the effectiveness of a potassium nitrate containing dentifrice and a Novamin based dentifrice in relieving dentinal hypersensitivity. The patients were divided into two experimental groups; group 1-potassium nitrate containing dentifrice and group 2-Novamin containing dentifrice. The sensitivity score was analyzed by using a verbal rating scale at baseline, at three weeks and at six weeks after using the dentifrices. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS version 17. Chi-square test showed that there was no significant difference between the effectiveness and efficacy of the two dentifrices. The results were highly significant (p<0.001). Hence, potassium nitrate and Novamin were equally effective in reducing dentinal hypersensitivity.
Kundera światowy? Hrabal peryferyjny? Przekład jako forma promocji?

W artykule podjęto próbę opisania wybranych aspektów oddziaływania nowych koncepcji (takich jak historia literatury europejskiej czy historia światowej republiki literatury), które weszły do dyskursu literackiego i przekładoznawczego i które współistnieją z tradycyjnymi kategoriami, takimi jak literatura dawna, współczesna, literatura narodowa, literatura światowa czy proces historii literatury. „Pomieszanie języków” (confusio linguarum), związane z pojawieniem się tych pojęć powieściowych, niewątpliwie wpłynęło na dziedzinę studiów translatorskich, a w szczególności na promocję przekładu i autoprzekładu oraz na inne zjawiska z tym związane. Ciekawą rolę w tej dyskusji odgrywa również to, co nazywam „perspektywą”, z której obserwuje się włączanie danych utworów lub autorów do literatury europejskiej lub światowej. W dwóch z czterech analizowanych w artykule dzieł dominuje perspektywa francuska (paryska), charakterystyczna dla pewnego etapu badań porównawczych, który, jak się zdaje, już się zakończył. Dwie pozostałe publikacje, napisane z perspektywy czeskiej, są adresowane do czytelników anglo- i niemieckojęzycznych.

The author of the article reviewed the totality of certain historical, political, general cultural factors that influenced the processes of Russian-Finnish interaction, which influenced on the processes of Russian-Finnish interaction, as well as the formation and existence of the Russian-language press in the Grand Duchy of Finland. The study of the number of selected episodes from the history of Russian-language periodicals of the late XIX – early XX centuries gives reasons to conclude that it was during this period that the printed word became increasingly important for the formation of socio-political, national-patriotic, general cultural sentiments in both Russian and Finnish society. The positions of the three reviewed periodicals are different both in their dominant ideological attitudes and in the readership. The pro-government Finnish newspaper (editor: lawyer, monarchist Ivan Bazhenov) being the official mouthpiece of the targeted nationalist russification policy of tsarism, appeals to the entire population of the Grand Duchy. The liberal “Russian voice” (editor: liberal professor Konstantin Arabazhin) advocates for the humanitarian values, the unity of nations based on common material, spiritual, cultural and legal interests; her readers are mostly Russian intelligentsia. The radical “Days of our life” (editor: member of the White movement, the poet of the “white idea” Ivan Savin), on the one hand, deny all the gains of the Russian Revolution and sharply criticize inactive “fathers-emigrants”, on the other hand, they utopianly rely on the coming consolidation of the youth “scattering” in the struggle against Bolshevism, not only in word but in deed; its addressee is Russian emigration, mainly youth.

Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati iskustvo slobodnog vremena obitelji djeteta s teškoćama u razvoju iz roditeljske perspektive, a koje je u okvirima hrvatske znanstvene zajednice, ali i zemljama regije, dosad tek marginalno tematizirano. Korištena je kvalitativna metodologija te su podaci prikupljeni intervjuiranjem devet majki djece s teškoćama u razvoju. Rezultati pokazuju da majke djece s teškoćama u razvoju slobodno vrijeme obitelji ostvaruju kroz širok spektar aktivnosti te kako prilikom njegova provođenja pridaju važnost interakciji. Pri provođenju slobodnog vremena obitelji majke se susreću s izazovima poput svakodnevnih obveza, stresa, umora te s teškoćama u pronalaženju aktivnosti koje odgovaraju interesima i mogućnostima različitih članova obitelji. Pri ostvarivanju slobodnog vremena obitelji majke koriste strategije poput pomnog planiranja, nabavljanja materijala i pomagala te konzultiranja s drugim roditeljima i stručnjacima s ciljem osiguravanja uspješnijeg slobodnog vremena obitelji. Kao dobrobiti slobodnog vremena obitelji majke prepoznaju povezivanje članova obitelji, razvoj, odmor i zabavu djeteta s teškoćama u razvoju te zrelost i empatiju djeteta tipična razvoja. Kod pitanja mogu li slobodno vrijeme obitelji doživjeti kao slobodno vrijeme, majke daju podvojene odgovore, a od dobrobiti slobodnog vremena obitelji za njih same najviše navode odmor.
Between sovereign and subject: the constitutional position of the official
Authors: McLean Janet
Published: July 2020

Drawing on the work of Jean Bodin, this article seeks to re-establish the central place of the official in constitutional thought and thus to constitutionally ground administrative law. It argues that the official not only needs to be responsive to the sovereign but also, being a creature of law, is subject to fundamental legal side constraints and additionally has a critical constitutional duty to remonstrate against unjust law. In this way, the official moderates between the sovereign and the subject and militates against direct rule which leads to tyranny.

Objective: to evaluate the dynamics of T-cell recovery after exposure to cyclophosphamide (CP). CP was injected at a dose of 125 mg/kg, followed by killing of mice on days 0, 10, 20, 30, 60 and determination of the subpopulation composition by flow cytometry. It was shown that thymocytes are more vulnerable to the action of the CP than spleen lymphocytes. Cell restoration in the thymus begins earlier with delayed recovery of spleen lymphocytes. Due to CP, there is an increase in the conversion of the naive T-cells into central memory T-cells with a relative accumulation of the latter.

Published: July 2020

The authors report an unusual presentation of juvenile xanthogranuloma (JXG), a non–Langerhans cell histiocytosis of infancy and early childhood. This entity typically presents as a cutaneous head or neck nodule but can manifest with more systemic involvement including in the central nervous system. However, currently there is limited information regarding specific imaging features differentiating JXG from other neuropathological entities, with diagnosis typically made only after tissue sampling. The authors reviewed the initial images of a young patient with shunt-treated hydrocephalus and enlarging, chronic, extraaxial processes presumed to reflect subdural collections from overshunting, and they examine the operative discovery of a mass lesion that was pathologically proven to be JXG. Their results incorporate the important associated histological and advanced imaging features, including previously unreported metabolic activity on FDG PET. Ultimately, the case underscores the need to consider JXG in differential diagnoses of pediatric intracranial masses and highlights the potential role of PET in the initial diagnosis and response to treatment.

OBJECTIVE

Head of bed (HOB) elevation to 30° after severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) has become standard positioning across all age groups. This maneuver is thought to minimize the risk of elevated ICP in the hopes of decreasing cerebral blood and fluid volume and increasing cerebral venous outflow with improvement in jugular venous drainage. However, HOB elevation is based on adult population data due to a current paucity of pediatric TBI studies regarding HOB management. In this prospective study of pediatric patients with severe TBI, the authors investigated the role of different head positions on intracranial pressure (ICP), cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP), and cerebral venous outflow through the internal jugular veins (IJVs) on postinjury days 2 and 3 because these time periods are considered the peak risk for intracranial hypertension.

METHODS

Patients younger than 18 years with a Glasgow Coma Scale score ≤ 8 after severe TBI were prospectively recruited at a single quaternary pediatric intensive care unit. All patients had an ICP monitor placed, and no other neurosurgical procedure was performed. On the 2nd and 3rd days postinjury, the degree of HOB elevation was varied between 0° (head-flat or horizontal), 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, and 50° while ICP, CPP, and bilateral IJV blood flows were recorded.

RESULTS

Eighteen pediatric patients with severe TBI were analyzed. On each postinjury day, 13 of the 18 patients had at least 1 optimal HOB position (the position that simultaneously demonstrated the lowest ICP and the highest CPP). Six patients on each postinjury day had 30° as the optimal HOB position, with only 2 being the same patient on both postinjury days. On postinjury day 2, 3 patients had more than 1 optimal HOB position, while 5 patients did not have an optimal position. On postinjury day 3, 2 patients had more than 1 optimal HOB position while 5 patients did not have an optimal position. Interestingly, 0° (head-flat or horizontal) was the optimal HOB position in 2 patients on postinjury day 2 and 3 patients on postinjury day 3. The optimal HOB position demonstrated lower right IJV blood flow than a nonoptimal position on both postinjury days 2 (p = 0.0023) and 3 (p = 0.0033). There was no significant difference between optimal and nonoptimal HOB positions in the left IJV blood flow.

CONCLUSIONS

In pediatric patients with severe TBI, the authors demonstrated that the optimal HOB position (which decreases ICP and improves CPP) is not always at 30°. Instead, the optimal HOB should be individualized for each pediatric TBI patient on a daily basis.

OBJECTIVE

Rasmussen encephalitis (RE) is a rare inflammatory neurological disorder typically involving one hemisphere and resulting in drug-resistant epilepsy and progressive neurological decline. Here, the authors present seizure outcomes in children who underwent epilepsy surgery for RE at a single institution.

METHODS

The records of consecutive patients who had undergone epilepsy surgery for RE at the UCLA Mattel Children’s Hospital between 1982 and 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Basic demographic information, seizure history, procedural notes, and postoperative seizure and functional outcome data were analyzed.

RESULTS

The cohort included 44 patients, 41 of whom had sufficient data for analysis. Seizure freedom was achieved in 68%, 48%, and 22% of the patients at 1, 5, and 10 years, respectively. The median time to the first seizure for those who experienced seizure recurrence after surgery was 39 weeks (IQR 11–355 weeks). Anatomical hemispherectomy, as compared to functional hemispherectomy, was independently associated with a longer time to postoperative seizure recurrence (HR 0.078, p = 0.03). There was no statistically significant difference in postoperative seizure recurrence between patients with complete hemispherectomy and those who had less-than-hemispheric surgery. Following surgery, 68% of the patients could ambulate and 84% could speak regardless of operative intervention.

CONCLUSIONS

A large proportion of RE patients will have seizure relapse after surgery, though patients with anatomical hemispherectomies may have a longer time to postoperative seizure recurrence. Overall, the long-term data in this study suggest that hemispheric surgery can be seen as palliative treatment for seizures rather than a cure for RE.
Eco-Innovation Performance of Slovakia
Authors: Belanova Katarina
Published: July 2020

The aim of the article is to evaluate eco-innovation performance of Slovakia as well as  to test the interdependence of the level of patenting of environmental technologies on government budget outlays or appropriations for research and development in the area of environment and energy. In order to test for the interdependence, regression was used. We used the eco-innovation index elaborated by the European Commision to evaluate the eco-innovation performance of Slovakia. The results reveal that the Slovak economy is one of the economies with insufficient eco-innovation performance. However, the regression analysis showed only a slight dependence of the variables surveyed.

Istruzione e diseguaglianze sociali nel Veneto
Authors: Martini Angela
Published: July 2020

Il presente lavoro analizza l'effetto dell'indice di status socio-economico-culturale (Escs) dello studente sui risultati delle prove Invalsi di Italiano, Matematica e Inglese degli alunni veneti che hanno frequentato nel 2018-19 la quinta classe della scuola primaria, la terza classe della scuola secondaria inferiore e le classi seconda e quinta della scuola secondaria superiore. A tal fine una serie di analisi di regressione è stata effettuata sia tenendo conto del solo indice Escs come variabile indipendente sia controllando per altre variabili degli studenti che incidono sulle prestazioni nelle prove standardizzate di apprendimento, come il genere, la nazionalità, ecc. L'effetto dell'Escs diminuisce quando si tiene conto anche di queste variabili. Inoltre, più che l'Escs individuale dello studente, a pesare sui risultati delle prove è il contesto sociale della classe in cui è inserito, misurato dall'Escs medio degli alunni che la frequentano.
