Assessment of Left Ventricular Mechanical Dyssynchrony in Left Bundle Branch Block Patients with and Without Heart Failure by Tissue Doppler Imaging
Authors: Raut Sambhaji , Chavan Chandrakant , Phalgune Deepak
Published: April 2019

Introduction:

Large number of patients with heart failure (HF) have left bundle branch block (LBBB). Most precise method for identification of intraventricular dyssynchrony is tissue Doppler imaging (TDI). Purpose of this research was to compare left ventricular (LV) mechanical dyssynchrony in LBBB patients with and without HF and to compare various methods of LV systolic dyssynchrony assessment by TDI.

Materials and Methods:

One hundred and sixteen patients with a diagnosis of LBBB were included in the study. All patients underwent conventional two-dimensional echocardiography for global LV function assessment. LV systolic dyssynchrony was measured by opposing wall delay, maximum delay, and Yu index. LBBB patients were grouped into four classes according to their LV function and the presence or absence of HF, normal LV function without HF (Group A), normal LV function with HF (Group B), LV dysfunction with HF (Group C), and LV dysfunction without HF (Group D).

Results:

LV systolic dyssynchrony was significantly higher (P <0.001) in Group C and D as compared to Group A and B. LV systolic dyssynchrony was significant higher in Group C and D as compared to Group A and B by using opposing wall delay (P <0.001), Yu index (P <0.001), and maximum delay (P <0.001) imaging criteria. Mean Yu index (P <0.001) and mean maximum delay (P <0.001) were significantly higher in Group C and D as compared to Group A and B.

Conclusions:

LV systolic dyssynchrony was more common in LBBB patients with LV dysfunction than those with normal LV function, irrespective of the presence or absence of HF.

Authors: Ahmad Shaheen , Agarwal Mukta , Ranjan Rahul , Anwar Rashid
Published: April 2019

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a rare genetic disease. Usual presentation is asymmetrical hypertrophy of interventricular septum as compared to the posterior wall of the left ventricle. We present a rare variant of HCM in which the posterior wall of the left ventricle is more hypertrophied than ventricular septum (inverted asymmetry). Very few cases are reported in literature.

Advérbios e o movimento do verbo
Authors: Tescari Neto Aquiles
Published: April 2019

Os advérbios têm sido utilizados em larga escala, em Gramática Gerativa, como diagnósticos para o movimento do verbo e de outros constituintes da oração, uma vez que ocupam posições rígidas e fixas na estrutura oracional. Com o avanço das pesquisas do Programa Cartográfico e consequente assunção de uma estrutura oracional enriquecida, é pertinente perguntar quais advérbios seriam de fato diagnósticos fidedignos para o movimento do verbo. O trabalho tem, então, por objetivo principal, valendo-se especialmente de dados do português brasileiro, mostrar a pertinência da utilização de advérbios baixos como testes para o movimento do verbo à flexão nessa língua. Será revisitada a literatura pertinente no intuito de mostrar por que advérbios baixos são bons diagnósticos à subida do verbo temático (tanto em sua forma finita, como no infinitivo, gerúndio e particípio). Num segundo momento, o trabalho apresentará argumentos contra a assunção de advérbios altos ou sentenciais como diagnósticos à subida do verbo em português do Brasil. Nessa língua, portanto, somente advérbios baixos podem ser tomados como diagnósticos, dado que os altos (ou sentenciais) não podem aparecer em posição sentencial final, independentemente da forma do verbo temático considerada.
A realização de sujeitos e objetos pronominais no português uruguaio
Authors: Simioni Leonor
Published: April 2019

O objetivo do trabalho é descrever a realização de sujeitos e objetos pronominais no português uruguaio (PU) a partir de um corpus de dados orais. Enquanto o português brasileiro (PB) apresenta em torno de 80% de sujeitos pronominais preenchidos, no PU há 50% de sujeitos referenciais nulos, com preferência de preenchimento para a 1ª pessoa do singular e predominância de nulos especialmente na 1ª pessoa do plural. Os objetos podem ser realizados como clíticos (incluindo a 3ª pessoa) ou como pronomes retos. A colocação dos clíticos apresenta próclise categórica aos verbos flexionados e gerúndio e ênclise com infinitivos e imperativos, além de subidas de clítico e redobro de clíticos. Objetos anafóricos podem ser retomados por nulos, clíticos ou pronomes retos, estando a retomada condicionada a traços semânticos do antecedente. Tanto na posição de sujeito quanto na posição de objeto, pronomes retos de 3ª pessoa ocorrem somente com referentes humanos. Os dados confirmam a existência de diferenças sintáticas significativas entre PU e PB.

Authors: Moura Diego Luz , Silva Junior Ivanildo Alves Lima da , Araujo João Gabriel Eugênio , Sousa Cleyton Batista de , Parente Maria Larissy Da Cruz
Published: April 2019

Este artigo teve como objetivo analisar a produção acadêmica brasileira acerca do ensino das lutas como conteúdo das aulas de Educação Física Escolar. Utilizou-se o método qualitativo de revisão sistemática, o qual foi pesquisado em periódicos do sistema WebQualis entre A1 e B2. Para seleção dos artigos foram analisados os títulos, resumos e estudo na integra, buscando artigos que tratassem do conteúdo “lutas na escola”. Foram selecionados 19 artigos que resultaram em três categorias: Aspectos Pedagógicos e Metodológicos das Lutas; Violência e Lutas no Contexto Escolar; e Formação Docente. Constatamos que é necessário sistematizar o ensino das lutas e refletir sobre sua intervenção pedagógica, potencializar a formação inicial e continuada na operacionalização deste conteúdo, distanciar as lutas da ideia de violência e promover a escola como local de estudo e propagação deste conteúdo.
A participação de jovens com deficiência visual em aulas de Educação Física: experiências na rede regular e em instituições especializadas
Authors: Furtado Otávio Luis Piva da Cunha , Morato Márcio Pereira , Gutierrez Gustavo Luis , Alves Maria Luíza Tanure
Published: April 2019

Este estudo buscou analisar a participação de alunos cegos e com baixa visão em aulas de Educação Física. A coleta de dados contou com aplicação de questionário a 50 jovens praticantes de goalball (27 meninas), com idade entre 13 e 19 anos. Os achados apontaram acentuada redução da participação nas aulas de Educação Física na Rede Regular na medida em que aumentava a limitação visual. As principais barreiras destacadas foram: a falta de colaboração dos colegas, o medo de se machucar, a falta de capacitação dos professores. A prática de modalidades paralímpicas foi predominante nas Instituições de ensino especializado, enquanto que na Rede Regular somente modalidades coletivas convencionais eram praticadas. Tal cenário, portanto, não corresponde ao ideal de inclusão educacional.
The Impact of Hanja-Based Syllables on Korean Vocabulary Learning
Authors: Muscanto Isaac
Published: April 2019

Sino-Korean words represent over half of Korean vocabulary, but since most modern Korean is written phonetically in hangul, the semantic connections between related words are not readily transparent to most learners without hanja instruction. This pilot study investigates the benefits of a hanja education that focuses exclusively on the sound-to-meaning relationship of individual hanja-based syllables, for example, teaching students that the syllable 수/swu is the phonetic pronunciation of the hanja for water. It provides evidence that teaching the meaning of hanja morphemes can help students retain new vocabulary over a short period of time and raises the possibility that hanja syllable education could act as a substitute for more comprehensive forms of hanja education.
Into the Dragons' Den: Practicing KFL Business Communication Skills Through Project-Based Learning
Authors: Choi Yujeong
Published: April 2019

Project-based learning (PBL), despite its potential for creating links between knowledge and action and enabling students to apply their knowledge to solving an authentic problem (Markham, 2011), has been underutilized in language courses. This article describes a project-based activity designed and implemented in a Korean for occupational purposes course at a university in Canada. Modeled after the structure of the television program Dragons' Den, the project provides students with a realistic simulation to practice and develop presentation skills. Working in teams, students choose a product or service item and develop a range of promotion plans culminating in a sales pitch to “investors.”
Gaining Perspective of an Industry’s Readiness for Regulatory Change: A Case Study From the Aviation Industry
Authors: Lercel Damon
Published: April 2019

A change in regulatory policy regularly affects more than one organization and may involve an entire industry comprised of thousands of diverse organizations. These types of regulatory changes often encounter significant resistance from industry stakeholders as they often view new regulation with a certain level of skepticism, contributing to policy gridlock. A significant factor in whether any change initiative fails or succeeds is the organization’s readiness for change. However, a preponderance of the organizational change research to date has focused on individuals, targeted small groups, or single organizations – little has focused on regulatory policy changes that may affect a very large and diverse industry group. By better understanding an industry’s readiness for change, regulators may more effectively identify and understand the potential opposing forces, develop strategies to overcome these forces, and therefore may create a change vector. Recently, the Federal Aviation Administration proposed a major regulatory change affecting the United States’ aviation repair station industry. This heavily debated regulation would require industry organizations to develop a formal Safety Management Systems. Thus far the regulation has met stiff industry resistance. This research attempted to gain perspective of the industry’s readiness for change and found their overall readiness level was low. Although this research was limited in scope and intended as an initial exploration of change readiness concepts across a large industry faced with a proposed major public policy shift, the results suggest readiness for change assessments may assist public agencies with managing major regulatory change.

Authors: Silva Yara Emilia Arlindo , Méllo Diene Eire , Moraes Dirce Aparecida Foletto
Published: April 2019

O presente estudo teve por objetivo identificar a percepção de professores em formação sobre o uso das tecnologias digitais no processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de abordagem qualitativa de caráter exploratório, realizada com um grupo de doze estudantes de um Curso de Especialização em Ensino de Ciências Biológicas de uma universidade pública do estado Paraná. Foi utilizado como instrumento de coleta de dados um questionário com questões abertas e fechadas. Adotou-se neste artigo um referencial teórico que nos permitisse analisar as concepções dos participantes a partir de autores como Lévy (1999), Salomon(1992), Cool e Monereo(2010) e Silva (2002; 2010). Constatou-se, por meio da análise dos dados coletados, que os pesquisados apresentam uma concepção de tecnologia ainda muita presa às premissas do passado, considerando como recurso de apoio apenas a fala do professor ou com ênfase no caráter motivacional. Quanto ao uso como ferramenta didática, estes a consideram de grande valia, porém não se sentem integralmente aptos a utilizá-la. Ressalta-se que, apesar dos pesquisados estarem em plena formação, os conteúdos e práticas relativas ao uso das tecnologias não se apresentam como componente curricular no curso em questão, mesmo se tratando de um curso na área de ensino.
O que cabe no currículo da educação infantil? um convite à reflexão
Authors: Lazaretti Lucineia Maria , Arrais Luciana Figueiredo Lacanallo
Published: April 2019

A organização curricular na educação infantil é uma temática polêmica; o próprio percurso histórico da educação infantil revela a falta de clareza quanto à sua finalidade. Ante isso, os objetivos deste texto são refletir sobre os desafios da organização curricular na educação infantil, trazendo algumas propostas oficiais que já iluminaram o trabalho docente e indicar caminhos para estruturar e para organizar um currículo para essa etapa de ensino. Essa discussão se faz necessária, pois, até recentemente, essa temática não era prioridade para a educação infantil, justificada pela própria origem não formal e não escolar do atendimento às crianças pequenas. Assim, diante dessa necessidade, propomos, inicialmente, alguns apontamentos sobre certos percalços e possibilidades para pensar o currículo na educação infantil, tendo em vista o fato de que o currículo pode garantir a especificidade do trabalho educativo. Os documentos oficiais destinados à educação infantil evidenciam desarticulação entre objetivos e conteúdos, com implícita concepção de criança, sem metas que definam a direção almejada por essa organização curricular. Avançamos, nessa discussão, inferindo que a organização curricular precisa responder aos seguintes questionamentos: para quê, para quem, por quê, o quê e como ensinar, evidenciando que essas questões determinam as finalidades, os propósitos e as intenções educacionais, constituindo-se no ponto de partida que justifica e dá sentido ao processo educativo. Salientamos que a tarefa de elaborar e de estruturar um currículo é desafiadora; somente quando a assumimos, teremos possibilidades de garantir a formação das complexas e das elaboradas conquistas humanas no desenvolvimento cultural das crianças pequenas.
Escutar as crianças e (re) configurar identidades – interações com voz
Authors: Costa Conceição Leal da , Sarmento Teresa
Published: April 2019

A evolução socio-histórica da escola, da educação escolar ou o pensamento sobre os professores e a sua formação, mostram o quanto se têm ampliado as funções dos professores, redimensionando, inclusivamente, a natureza e a construção do conhecimento sobre as infâncias e as crianças. Para este texto mobilizamos a assertiva de que o professor é um profissional do humano, um interventor mais ou menos consciente e crítico do seu papel social, cuja ação se desenvolve na interação com outras pessoas, em especial e aqui convocadas as crianças. Nessa perspetiva, a ação docente com crianças só faz sentido se estiver fortemente impregnada de um compromisso social, ou seja, com as pessoas nos contextos que habita no dia-a-dia, pensando no que é mais imediato, mas também com a sociedade e a cultura, em termos mais globais. Neste texto desafiam-nos, portanto, os modos de (re)configuração identitária pelos quais as experiências vividas são mantidas, permanecem amplamente desconhecidas e tantas vezes não são reconhecidas, sobretudo porque as investigações que temos realizado devolvem um feedback merecedor da reflexão profunda sobre o valor e a necessidade de escutar as crianças, valorizando uma ecologia dos saberes, mas também mais amplamente as aprendizagens e o desenvolvimento, pessoais e profissionais, derivados da vida e(m) interação.

Sociale zekerheid en controle op detacheringen binnen de EU. Nieuwe wending in de rol van de detacheringsverklaringen bij fraude

Deze bijdrage annoteert het arrest Altun (C-359/16) van het Hof van Justitie van de Europese Unie over de betekenis van de A1-verklaringen bij de toepassing van de Europese socialezekerheidscoördinatie (Verordening 883/2004). Deze zaak ging over de controle die de ontvangstlidstaten kunnen uitoefenen op de correcte toepassing van de regels met betrekking tot de vaststelling van de toepasselijke socialezekerheidswetgeving bij detachering binnen de EU. Dit artikel gaat op de eerste plaats dieper in op de voorwaarden met betrekking tot de toepassing van deze detacheringsregels en op de tot nog toe bestaande rechtspraak van het Hof van Justitie over de betekenis van de detacheringsverklaringen. Het licht dan verder toe hoe het Hof aan deze rechtspraak een nieuwe wending heeft gegeven door de rechter van de ontvangstlidstaat de mogelijkheid te geven om, indien fraude kan worden aangetoond, deze verklaringen naast zich neer te leggen en zijn eigen socialezekerheidswetgeving toe te passen. Het concludeert dat deze rechtspraak de mogelijkheden om fraude en sociale dumping tegen te gaan slechts in beperkte mate heeft uitgebreid.

Arbeidstijdregulering en oproeparbeid

In het Matzak-arrest breidt het Hof van Justitie EU het begrip arbeidstijd - onder voorwaarden - uit tot thuis doorgebrachte wachttijd. Het arbeidstijdenrecht biedt tot dusver slechts beperkte bescherming tegen oproeparbeid, terwijl de daaraan verbonden onzekerheid de gezondheid en het welzijn van steeds grotere groepen werknemers bedreigt. In deze bijdrage wordt onderzocht voor welke oproepcontracten het aanmerken van wachttijd als arbeidstijd soelaas biedt, waarbij tevens wordt ingegaan op het verband met de WML en de oproeptermijn in de Wet Arbeidsmarkt in Balans.
Synthesis, structure and properties of V(IV) complex with N’-[(E)-(2,3-dihydroxyphenyl)metylidene]-2-phenylacetohydrazide
Authors: Szklarzewicz Janusz , Jurowska Anna , Hodorowicz Maciej , Gryboś Ryszard
Published: April 2019

The synthesis and physicochemical properties of new vanadium(IV) complex of formula [VO(L)(phen)] is described. The L denotes ONO tridentate Schiff base derived from 2,3-dihydroxybenzaldehyde and phenylacetic hydrazide, while phen = 1,10-phenanthroline used as a co-ligand to stabilize the V(IV) oxidation state. The single crystal X-Ray crystal structure indicates on octahedral geometry of vanadium centre, with 1,10-phenanthroline nitrogen trans to the V=O bond. The complex crystalizes in a monoclinic P21/c space group, very unusual is that only one isomer is present in the crystal structure. The structure is stabilized by very weak hydrogen bonds and H···π and π···π interactions. The phenyl ring of hydrazide is strongly curved from ONO ligand plane by 70.95˚. The spectroscopic characterization (IR, UV-Vis) as well as the cyclic voltammetry measurements are presented and discussed.

Published: April 2019

The synthesis and physicochemical properties of vanadium(III,IV,V) complexes with Schiff base ligands based on 3,5-dibromo-4-methoxy-salicylaldehyde and phenylacetic hydrazide (H2L1), 5-chlorosalicylaldehyde and 4-hydroxybenzhydrazide (H2L2) and 5-chlorosalicylaldehyde and 2-hydroxybenzhydrazide (H2L3) were presented. The formulas of the complexes {[V(L1)(HL1)]·EtOH (1), [VO(L2)(phen)]·2H2O (2) and [VO(L3)(EtO)] (3)} were proposed based on the elemental analysis, IR and UV-Vis spectra. Additionally, the IR and UV-Vis spectra (in solvents as well as in a solid state) have been discussed from the vanadium oxidation state point of view. The single crystal structure of 3 shows triclinic, P-1 space group, structure is stabilized by hydrogen bonds and strong π-π stacking interactions. The oxidation state of the metal centre was also confirmed by the magnetic susceptibility measurements. The stability of the complexes was measured in pH = 7.00 and in pH = 2.00 which allows to evaluate the use of these compounds as insulin mimetic compounds.

Published: April 2019

OBJECTIVE Vancomycin is often used in the pediatric cardiac surgical population, but few pharmacokinetic data are available to guide dosing.

METHODS A retrospective, population pharmacokinetic study was performed for patients <19 years of age initiated on vancomycin after cardiac surgery in the cardiac intensive care unit from 2011–2016 in our institution. Patient data were summarized by using descriptive statistical methods, and population pharmacokinetic analysis was performed by using NONMEM. Simulation was performed to determine a dosing strategy that most frequently obtained an AUC0–24:MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) ratio of >400.

RESULTS A total of 261 patients (281 cardiac surgical procedures, cardiopulmonary bypass 82.3%) met inclusion criteria (60.1% male, median age 0.31 [IQR, 0.07–0.77] years). Vancomycin (14.5 ± 1.7 mg/kg/dose) was administered at median postoperative day 9 (IQR, 4–14), with a mean serum concentration of 11.5 ± 5.5 mg/L at 8.9 ± 3.8 hours after a dose. Population pharmacokinetic analysis demonstrated that a 1-compartment proportional error model with allometrically scaled weight best fit the data, with creatinine clearance and postmenstrual age as significant covariates. Simulation identified that a dosing regimen of 20 mg/kg/dose every 8 hours was most likely to achieve an AUC0–24:MIC ratio > 400 at a mean trough serum concentration of 12.9 ± 3.2 mg/L.

CONCLUSIONS Vancomycin dosing in the postoperative pediatric cardiac surgical population should incorporate postmenstrual age and creatinine clearance. A vancomycin dose of 20 mg/kg every 8 hours is a reasonable empiric strategy.
Diphenhydramine-Refractory Antipsychotic-Induced Dystonia in an Adolescent Male With Cornelia de Lange Syndrome
Authors: Small Stephen M. , Bacher Rachel S.
Published: April 2019

Cornelia de Lange Syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that results in distinctive craniofacial deformities, developmental delay, hirsutism, and other physical abnormalities. Case reports suggest some of these patients exhibit sensitivity and paradoxical reactions to certain psychoactive drugs. This report of a 16-year-old male with Cornelia de Lange is the first to describe dystonia from a first-generation antipsychotic that did not respond to conventional treatment with diphenhydramine. The patient initially presented to the Emergency Department for agitation, which progressively worsened after administration of diphenhydramine, olanzapine, and intramuscular haloperidol. The patient returned to the Emergency Department the following day because of altered mental status and lethargy that progressed to periodic lip-smacking movements and contraction of his upper extremities. His symptoms continued despite administration of diphenhydramine and loading doses of 3 antiepileptic drugs. His abnormal labs included an elevated creatine kinase and a prolonged QTc interval on his electrocardiogram. His symptoms were later deemed a probable drug-induced dystonic reaction to haloperidol once seizures were excluded by an unremarkable electroencephalogram. This case supports previous reports suggesting an association between Cornelia de Lange and paradoxical drug reactions, and it is recommended that clinicians strongly weigh the risks of prescribing first-generation antipsychotics for this patient population. These medications should be carefully titrated, with close patient monitoring to prevent adverse drug effects and other iatrogenic complications because antidotes may be rendered ineffective by this condition.

Background: Among all present demosponges, lithistids represent a polyphyletic group with exceptionally well preserved fossils dating back to the Cambrian. Knowledge of their recent diversity, particularly in the Tropical Western Atlantic Ocean (TWA) where they are common in deep waters, is scarce making any comparison between present and past major ‘lithistid’ faunas difficult. In addition, the lack of sufficient molecular and morphological data hamper any predictions on phylogenetic relationships or phylodiversity from this region. The Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute (HBOI, Fort Pierce, Florida) holds the largest collection of TWA lithistid sponges worldwide, however, the majority remain to be taxonomically identified and revised.

Methods/Principal Findings: In this study we provide sequences of 249 lithistid demosponges using two independent molecular markers (28S rDNA (C1-D2) and cox1 mtDNA). In addition, a morphological documentation of 70 lithistid specimens is provided in the database of the Sponge Barcoding Project (SBP). This integrated dataset represents the largest and most comprehensive of the TWA lithistids to date. The phylogenetic diversity of ‘lithistid’ demosponges in the Bahamas and Jamaica are high in comparison to other TWA regions; Theonellidae and Corallistidae dominate the fauna, while Neopeltidae and Macandrewiidae are rare. A new tetractinellid suborder, one new genus and several new species are recognized and the Pacific ‘lithistid’ genera, Herengeria and Awhiowhio, are reported from the TWA for the first time. The higher-taxa relationships of desma-bearing tetractinellids are discussed and topics for revision suggested.

Conclusion: This first integrative approach of TWA ‘lithistid’ demosponges contributes to a better understanding of their phylogenetic affinities, diversity and bathymetric distribution patterns within the TWA. As in the Pacific, the TWA ‘lithistid’ demosponges dominate deep-water habitats. Deeper taxonomic investigations will undoubtedly contribute to a better comparison between present major ‘lithistid’ faunas and their fossil record in the Mesozoic.
Snippets of virus integrated into human genome suggests possibility of CRISPR-like adaptive immune system in human cells
Authors: Ng Wenfa
Published: April 2019

Snippets of virus that infect humans have been shown to be incorporated into the human genome. Could such virus snippets provide a form of adaptive immunity similar to that offered by CRISPR to bacterial cells? To answer the question, RNA-seq could be used to provide a broad view of the RNA transcribed from DNA in the genome. Using known genome sequence of viruses that infect humans as template, reads obtained from RNA-seq would be profiled for virus snippets integrated into human genome and subsequently transcribed as part of an adaptive immune system. Subsequently, viruses corresponding to the virus snippets in human genome would be used to infect human cell lines to obtain direct evidence of how virus snippets mediate an adaptive immune response at the cellular level. Specifically, successful defence of the cell by virus snippets triggering an adaptive immune response would manifest as viable cells compared to lysed cells unable to mount an immune response. Following demonstration of cell viability under viral challenge, in vitro biochemical assays using cell lysate would interrogate the specific proteins and enzymes that mediate possible cutting of the foreign DNA or RNA. To this end, beads immobilized with virus snippets would serve as bait for binding to complementary viral DNA or RNA as well as potential endogenous endonuclease protein. Following precipitation and recovery of beads, possible endonuclease that bind to both viral DNA or RNA and virus snippets immobilized on beads would be isolated through gel electrophoresis and subsequently purified. Purified endonuclease would be assayed for activity against a variety of nucleic acids (both DNA and RNA) from various sources with and without added virus snippets. This provides important information on substrate range and specificity of the potential endonuclease. Amino acid sequencing of the purified endonuclease would help downstream bioinformatic search for candidate protein in the human genome. Finally, cryo-electron microscopy could help determine the structure of the endonuclease in complex with viral nucleic acids and virus snippets. Such structural information would provide more insights into mechanistic details describing the binding and cleavage of viral DNA or RNA in a CRISPR-like adaptive immune response in human cells. Overall, tantalizing clues have emerged that a CRISPR-like adaptive immune response may exist in human cells for defending against viral attack. Combination of cell biological, biochemical and structural tools could lend insights into the potential endonuclease that mediate double strand break of foreign DNA or RNA using virus snippets transcribed from the human genome as guide RNA. If demonstrated to be true for a variety of human viruses across different cell lines, the newly discovered viral defence mechanism in human cells hold important implications for understanding the adoption and evolution of CRISPR in eukaryotic cells.

Published: April 2019

The aim of the study was to assess the floor, feeding and watering space(s) and other housing management practice of goats followed by farmers in Rajasthan. A total of 120 tribal goat farmers were selected from 12 villages from 6 blocks in 3 tribal dominated districts viz., Banswara, Dungarpur and Udaipur. Ten farmers from each village were selected purposively based on the number of goats. The selected goat farmers were grouped into three categories based on flock size as small (<25 goats, N= 60), medium (26-50 goats, N = 36) and large (>50 goats, N = 24). The floor space and other housing practices at the farmer’s flocks were recorded in-situ. The average flock size for small, medium and large categories of the farmer was 22.63± 0.210, 33.72± 1.05 and 58.54 ±1.28 respectively. The overall proportion of milking goats, dry goats, goatlings, kids and bucks were 12.52 ± 0.31 (32.63%), 8.62 ± 0.30 (22.50%), 6.64 ± 0.27 (17.33%), 9.52 ± 0.29 (24.85%) and 0.79 ± 0.06 respectively. Across flock size categories most of the large farmers and a sizable majority of medium and small farmers (75, 66.67 and 60 per cent respectively) housed their goat in one shed, whereas rest of the farmers in all three categories housed their goats in different sheds. It was observed that a huge majority of farmers (82.50%) did not have separate managers for the feeding of goats. The available managers were made of either mud (11.6%) or cement concrete (5.8%). The roof in case of a large majority of farmers across flock size categories was made of thatch (61.67%) followed by iron sheet (21.66%) and asbestos sheets (16.67%). There was no major variation in the type of roofing material among the three flock size categories of goat farmers. The average floor space available for milking goats, dry goats, goatlings, kids and breeding bucks were 1.68 ± 0.02, 1.58± 0.06, 0.97± 0.07, 0.50± 0.05 and 2.79± 0.39 sq meter respectively. The average floor space was significant (p<0.05) higher in small flock size category of farmers followed by medium and large farmers among milking goats, dry goats and goatlings. Overall floor space available for milking goats, dry goats, goatlings, kids and breeding bucks were 1.68 ± 0.02, 1.58± 0.06, 0.97± 0.07, 0.50± 0.05 and 2.79± 0.39 respectively. It was concluded that housing practices were mostly traditional without much regard to scientific recommendations.  However, these management practices, in general, were better in the case of small farmers as compared to medium and large farmers.

Does the Implementation of Clinical Pathways Affect Hierarchical Structures Within a Surgical Department? A Qualitative Study
Authors: Ronellenfitsch Ulrich , Loerbroks Adrian , Schwarzbach Matthias
Published: April 2019

Objective:

To explore effects of the implementation of clinical pathways (CPs) on hierarchical structures within a surgical department.

Summary of background data:

CPs are care plans stipulating diagnostic and therapeutic measures along a time axis for a given condition or procedure. They are widely used in surgery. There is limited evidence to what extent CP implementation has an effect on hierarchical structures within surgical departments.

Methods:

Semistructured individual interviews were conducted with key members of a CP project team in a large academic surgery department. Interviews were carried out by an external researcher to increase the likelihood of obtaining unbiased opinions. Using an interview guide, it was ensured that respondents provided opinions on various issues related to CP implementation, including hierarchical relationships within the department, but also between caregivers and patients. The transcribed text was independently content analyzed by 2 researchers who converged their findings.

Results:

Clinical pathway implementation changed perceived surgical hierarchy from a top-down to a participatory approach. However, it was acknowledged that some form of hierarchy is required to ensure successful clinical pathway implementation. Respondents felt that clinical pathways changed surgical culture from a largely eminence-based to more evidence-based medicine.

Conclusions:

The implementation of CPs potentially affects several dimensions of surgical hierarchy. It changes “traditional” surgical hierarchy and is associated with perception of increased autonomy and competency in junior staff. The clinical approach appears to shift from eminence- to evidence-based medicine. The knowledge about these changes is important for carrying out CP projects in surgery.

Published: April 2019

Aim:

The SymCHro study objective is to assess patient outcomes and surgeon satisfaction following ventral hernia repair with a three-dimensional (3D) monofilament polyester mesh (Symbotex composite mesh) that contains an absorbable collagen barrier on 1 side to minimize tissue attachment.

Methods:

SymCHro is a multicenter observational study of 100 consecutive patients in the French Club Hernie registry who underwent primary and incisional ventral hernia repair with a Symbotex composite mesh. The primary objective is to assess recurrences and complications within 2 years of repair. This analysis reports 1-year results from the ongoing study.

Results:

A total of 105 hernias (37.1% primary, 62.9% incisional) in 100 patients were repaired by open or laparoscopic surgery. The patient follow-up rate at 1 year was 94%. A total of 6 (6.0%) low-grade seromas; 3 (3.0%) cases of low-grade transitory ileus; and 1 (1.0%) recurrence, which was asymptomatic but was repaired, occurred within 1-year follow-up. No serious adverse events were reported. All surgeons responded as satisfied with mesh flexibility and ease of insertion. Relative to baseline, patient pain reduced significantly at day 1 through month 3 postoperatively. At 1 year, 88.3% (83/94) patients assessed the hernia operation results as “good” or “excellent.”

Conclusion:

At this 1-year analysis, 94% of patients were followed up and experienced minimal pain and low complication rates, suggesting that Symbotex composite mesh provides an effective and safe repair for primary and incisional ventral hernias.
