The Impact of Body Mass Index on Clinical Characteristics and Treatment Outcomes in Endometrial Cancer Patients: A Comprehensive Analysis
Authors: Can Behzat
Published: September 2023

Introduction: The study investigates the influence of Body Mass Index (BMI) on demographic and clinical characteristics, the choice of treatment modalities, and their potential impact on treatment response and prognosis in endometrial cancer.
Materials and Methods: This retrospective cohort study analyzed individuals diagnosed with endometrial cancer who underwent gynecological surgical interventions. BMI was calculated as weight (kg) divided by height (m) squared and categorized into four subgroups: overweight (BMI 25-29.9), obesity class 1 (BMI 30-34.9), obesity class 2 (BMI 35-39.9), and obesity class 3 (BMI ≥40). Demographic and clinical data were extracted from medical records.
Results: Menopausal status differed across subgroups (p=0.013), with obesity class 3 showing a higher proportion of premenopausal women. Diabetes mellitus prevalence was higher in obesity class 3 (p=0.044). The usage of radiotherapy, brachytherapy, chemotherapy, and radiochemotherapy were similar across subgroups, as were relapse rates. The most commonly performed surgery was TAH+BSO+PPLND across all subgroups, with the highest percentage in the obesity class 3 (68.4%). The distribution of surgery types showed no difference across BMI subgroups (p=0.569).
Conclusion: Our study highlights the potential influence of BMI on menopausal status and surgical treatment strategies in endometrial cancer patients. The findings emphasize the importance of considering BMI in managing endometrial cancer, given the rising global prevalence of obesity.

Authors: Yilmaz Mehmet , Gonder Nevzat
Published: September 2023

Introduction: Thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO) or Buerger's disease is a non-atherosclerotic, inflammatory arteritis involving small and medium-sized arteries and veins of the extremities, often causing gangrene and scarring. Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) may predispose to both arterial and venous thromboembolic complications. This study examined the relationship between COVID-19 infection and Buerger's disease-related amputations.
Materials and Methods: Between January 2018 and July 2023, 54 patients who applied to our clinic for Buerger's disease and were followed up and treated were analyzed retrospectively. Follow-up information, demographic data of patients (age, gender, body mass index (BMI), education status), when they were diagnosed, amount of smoking (pack/year), all treatments applied for Buerger's disease (Pre-Covid – Covid period – Covid Afterwards), presence or absence of limb amputation, continued smoking, medications, cardiovascular risk factors, Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), Venous Thromboembolic Event (Pulmonary Embolism), Covid-19 History and vaccination information were noted.
Results: The mean age of 54 patients included in the study was 38.1 (27-49), all male. The mean smoking rate was 32 (16 - 60) packs/year, and the mean exposure to the SARS-CoV-2 virus was 1.22 (0-4) times. There was a significant correlation between major amputations due to Buerger's disease and age, severity of COVID-19 disease, and systemic hypertension (p<0.005). Major amputation rates increased during the period of COVID-19 disease (p<0.05).
Conclusion: We found a statistically significant increase in major amputations as the exposure to the virus or the severity of the COVID-19 disease increased. We also observed a significant increase in major amputation rates in the presence of systemic hypertension. The presence of COVID-19 disease and hypertension should be considered when planning treatment to prevent amputation in Buerger's patients.

Authors: Yilmaz Mehmet
Published: September 2023

Introduction: Hallux Rigidus is a disease characterized by pain and weakness in the first metatarsophalangeal joint of the foot. Patients with this condition describe severe pain when walking and taking steps. Research on the quality of information available on the Internet is lacking. Our study aimed to analyze the videos about Hallux Rigidus on YouTube, one of the video-sharing applications.
Methods: Our research is based on data collected from a video-sharing site (YouTube) on 12 July 2023. The search is done through the configuration process. "Change hallux" was typed into the search engine. The popularity of the video was analyzed using the Video Power Index (VPI) [(Like/(Like+Dislike)) x 100]. Videos were classified into five different groups based on the source they were uploaded to: [1] Community/Nonprofits, [2] Medical Professionals, [3] Medical school patients, [4] Universities / Schools, and [5] Patients / Independent users / Other places. The quality of movies is evaluated with the Global Quality Score (GQS). All videos were evaluated by one surgeon. A modified DISCERN scale was used to assess the reliability and quality of information provided in the videos.
Results: Fifty videos were analyzed in this study. The average number of views of the video is 6507, and the average length is 958 seconds. When the video-based scores of the DISCERN variable were compared with the GQS, the scores of the patient/independent user/other group were lower, but it was not significant (p>0.05).
Conclusion: We believe the content of this video is good and informative. Do not use channels other than healthcare providers or dubious channels, as videos uploaded by individuals can be misleading.

Authors: Afuwape O.O , Ayandipo O.O
Published: September 2023

Background: Laparoscopic surgery is the gold standard in developed countries.  Challenges indeveloping countries apart from the cost of instrumentation include a low acceptance level among patients. The consequent low volume of surgical cases debars cost reduction for surgery.

Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the knowledge level and perception of laparoscopic surgery in patients attending the surgical outpatient for the first time in a teaching hospital in Nigeria. We also determined probable factors which affect this.

Design of the study: This was a prospective study carried out on consenting new patients at the surgical out-patient clinic of the surgical out-patient clinic of a Nigerian Teaching Hospital. The questionnaire was administered to consenting patients through a face-to-face interview by nonmedical personnel who had been instructed by the investigators. Data collection was on clinic days within the period.

Results: A total of 370 persons were recruited in this study with a male: female ratio of 1:1.79. The age distribution was between 14years and 81 years with a mean age  of 44.19. 62.6% had no knowledge of laparoscopic surgery. 108(29.3%) and  260(70.7%) had positive and negative perception respectively. Only 44% of the patients with positive perception acquired information from appropriate hospital personnel. The longer the duration of perceived knowledge by the patients the higher the tendency to have the wrong perception. The level of education was a significant contributory factor to appropriate perception of laparoscopic surgery.

Conclusion: There is a need for public health education in the region to drive this relatively new frontier of surgery to improve our practice and encourage indigenous innovations.

Published: September 2023

An Adjuvant is an additive chemical that is known to enhance the effectiveness of pesticides like herbicides by helping to improve the absorption of the herbicides by weeds and may eventually help to reduce the dosage of the herbicides used. In the current trial, the adjuvant (Rizospray Extremo) was applied at 3 rates, i.e., 73 ml/ha, 109 ml/ha and 145 ml/ha. The herbicide mixtures used for the trial were glyphosate (glyphader) and triclopyr (garlon) mixtures at 436 ml/ha and 182 ml/ha respectively (60 mls glyphosate + garlon at 25 mls mixed in 15 litres of water). The herbicide control was glyphosate at 436 ml/ha + garlon at 182 ml/ha (with no adjuvant) whiles one plot was used as the no herbicide control. Weeds on the site include both soft weeds and woodies. Observations on weed mortality were made on weekly basis. Generally, herbicide application (with and without the adjuvant) effectively controlled the soft weeds at the site. Percentage weed growth reduction and herbicide efficacies generally increased with increasing rates of the adjuvant. Highest herbicide efficacy of 96% was obtained by the use of the adjuvant at 145 ml/ha. The treatments differed significantly mostly in their levels of control of the woody weeds at the site with adjuvant application at 145 ml/ha inducing the highest control of woody weeds (herbicide efficacy of 95.7%), whiles Adjuvant application at 73 ml/ha induced an efficacy of 88.91% on the woodies at the site. Glyphosate plus garlon application (without the use of adjuvant) induced an efficacy of 78.39%. The adjuvant was very effective in controlling weeds with waxy cuticles like the Thaumatococcus spp which were not effectively controlled without the use of theand adjuvant. The adjuvant (Rizospray Extremo) is therefore recommended for use in herbicide mixtures for spot spraying of woodies or noxious weeds at the site.
Une peinture sur vase grec à l’Antikenmuseum de Bâle (BS 477) : une esquisse d’exploitation didactique
Authors: Lucci Carlamaria
Published: September 2023

Les peintures sur vases représentent des ressources précieuses pour l’enseignement/apprentissage de la langue et de la culture grecques anciennes dans la mesure où elles offrent un aperçu de la vie quotidienne et/ou de l’imaginaire héroïque des Grecs. L’opportunité de familiariser des élèves avec ces ressources est aujourd’hui redoublée du fait qu’à l’option de visites réelles des musées qui les abritent s’ajoute l’option de contacts virtuels et ciblés par le recours au numérique. Dans ma contribution, je proposerai une esquisse de séquence didactique axée sur le contact réel et virtuel avec une peinture sur vase qui est actuellement conservée à l’Antikenmuseum de Bâle (BS 477 ; n°. Beazley Archive 203796). La particularité de cette céramique peinte, fabriquée dans un atelier athénien au début du Ve s. av. J.-C., est de réunir sur ses deux faces principales plusieurs personnages (identifiables par des inscriptions) présents aussi dans l’Iliade, le poème héroïque des Grecs par excellence, issu d’une tradition vraisemblablement antérieure à sa composition autour des VIIIe-VIe s. av. J.-C. La séquence d’enseignement, proposée d’une manière à être adaptée à des prérequis variables selon le niveau scolaire (secondaire I ou secondaire II), portera plus précisément sur une comparaison entre certains extraits de l’Iliade et les images qui se trouvent sur les deux faces principales du vase, avec l’objectif de sensibiliser les élèves à la variation et à la flexibilité de la tradition héroïque grecque entre voie orale/aurale et voie iconographique.

TOWARDS A METHODOLOGY FOR INTERPRETING VISUAL IMAGES AS CYBERNETIC SYSTEM: LACAN AND DELEUZE
Authors: Inkol Cecilia
Published: September 2023

This exposition endeavors to outline a theoretical framework for a methodology to interpret visual images that draws on cybernetics, semiotics, psychoanalysis and philosophical ideas. Using images, aesthetics and artistic practices as a means of generating new understanding requires translating, deciphering and interpreting those artistic products and/or processes. How can one decipher the system of visual language that underlies artistic productions? I suggest that cybernetics is requisite for such an endeavor. Cybernetic theory is the science of relations within a system, taking as its problematic the relation between a system and its productions or output; in some instances, it studies how the productions of a system influence the system itself. This exposition endeavors to articulate aesthetics or artistic works in terms of a visual language and as a cybernetic enterprise in the context of art-based research by drawing on the ideas of Lacan and Deleuze. For Lacan, aesthetics exists as a primary mode of discourse for the articulations of the unconscious, as evidenced in images in dreams, art and fantasy. Lacan is renowned for his dictum that the unconscious and its productions are structured like a language, but the kind of structure of meaning at work in the unconscious is less related to the structural grammar of a natural language than the syntax of mathematics and cybernetics. Drawing on Lacanian dream analysis, I evince how such an approach could be applied to aesthetic phenomena. Deleuze presents a semiotic theory, a theory of signs which evinces the generation of novel meaning in the unconscious; it can be said to be cybernetic in the way that it exists in a state of continual evolution, the output produced by the system engendering transformation in the system itself. Deleuze offers a framework for how the work of art or aesthetic phenomenon can be translated into new knowledge through the process of entrainment with signs.
TO REMEMBER IS A RISK OF FORGETTING – MIMESIS AND CHRONOTOPE IN ARTISTIC PROCESS
Authors: Dahlsveen Heidi
Published: September 2023

A performing storyteller is completely depending on the memory. In the process of making a performance the storyteller must make some choices regarding the memory. This article is based on a musical storytelling performance. Through using the research question: what possibilities does the chronotope and mimesis provide in an artistic working process towards an oral storytelling performance? the author looks at the concept of mimesis as a process and chronotope as a clarifying term. According to Catherine Heinemeyer, a chronotope is applicable because it is not only about the artistic experience, but the metaphor places the artistic work in contemporary political, economic, and social tendencies. This helps identify ways of behaving in a practice [Heinemeyer 2020]. Paul Ricoeur (1913–2005) relates. Aristotle’s mimesis to poiesis, which means art, and it is therefore only within the art that mimesis is effective [Ricoeur 1991]. The author has used examples from the storytelling performance to understand the concept of mimesis and the metaphor chronotope better.

Authors: Çam Aylin
Published: September 2023

Science continuously interacts with the social environment. Science develops with social needs, and society develops and changes with scientific advances. These changes and developments may cause dilemmas in society. Thus, the purpose of this study is to investigate the improvements among pre-service science teachers in terms of socio-scientific issues and nature of science after explicit theoretical and practical training. The participants in this case study were 16 voluntary pre-service science teachers. In-depth views of the pre-service science teachers on nature of science and socio-scientific issues were examined with open-ended questions and reflective diaries. After the training, the understanding of the pre-service science teachers for nature of science and socio-scientific issues was improved, and they learned various approaches for teaching nature of science and socio-scientific issues.

Curriculum reform is a significant approach to prepare schools to be effective in meeting contemporary societal needs and imperatives. Several countries around the world, therefore, engage in curriculum reform to enable schools to prepare children with the knowledge, skills, and competencies needed in the present and future society, but implementing change following a curriculum reform is often complex. In our study, we sought to understand how teachers respond to curriculum implementation following the introduction of the national pre-tertiary education curriculum framework (NPECF) in Ghana. We employed a concurrent, nested, mixed-design strategy (embedded design) using a sample of 352 randomly selected basic school teachers from six regions in Ghana. Data from surveys and interviews reveal that teachers consider the NPECF as relevant for Ghanaian educational fortunes; however, a myriad of classroom challenges come with the implementation process. We concluded that these challenges could affect the realization of the relevance of the NPECF if schools and teachers are not well resourced. We call the attention of duty bearers to the need to provide the necessary resources for the seamless implementation of the NPECF in Ghana. For policy adjustment, we recommended and proposed improvisation as an approach for teachers to utilize and exert autonomy and independence in the design and delivery of classroom instruction to sustain the NPECF in primary schools. Again, our study calls for coordination and collaboration among parents, civic society, and individuals across political divides to remain united to provide a solid foundation for education in Ghana.
Book Review: Just Schools: Building Equitable Collaborations with Families and Communities
Authors: Bartlett Tara
Published: September 2023

K–12 schools are facing a syndemic of critical junctures right now: On the one hand, school communities and families are still reeling from the effects of racial reckonings and the COVID-19 pandemic, while on the other hand, school leaders and decision-makers are grappling with how to effectively engage families and students amid demands and realizations for equity and justice. The book Just Schools: Building Equitable Collaborations with Families and Communities (2020) by Ann Ishimaru provides tools and pathways forward. Ishimaru first describes how our education systems have long been incubators of oppression and disengagement, steeped in colonizing methods and deficit views of “nondominant” families and traditions. Through narratives—grounded in her experiences and those of other families—she highlights examples of how schools and systems have narrowed or blocked opportunities for “equitable collaborations.” In response, Ishimaru offers frameworks grounded in critical race theory, decolonizing methods, cultural–historical activity theory, and cross-sector collaborations to foster more just and equitable partnerships between schools and families. To operationalize these frameworks and shape reader understanding, she then offers several case studies that exhibit participatory, co-designed spaces and processes that center the family and school community. Just Schools: Building Equitable Collaborations With Families and Communities is a critical read for educational leaders and school community stakeholders seeking to redesign school, family, and community partnerships; improve school governance structures and methods; and rewrite the dominant narrative of educational systems that often exclude parents and families via traditional methods of engagement.
