University Student-Athletes’ Experiences of Facilitators and Barriers to Contribution: A Narrative Account
Authors: Deal Colin , Camiré Martin
Published: March 2021

University student-athletes’ contributions in the form of volunteering, community engagement, and civic engagement have been the subject of recent research; however, no studies have specifically examined the factors that facilitate or serve as barriers to contribution in this population. As such, the purpose of this study is to explore the facilitators and barriers relating to university student-athletes’ contributions. Individual semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight university student-athletes (two males, six females) between 18 and 21 years of age (M = 19.25) from two Canadian universities. The analysis led to the identification of two qualitatively distinct profiles regarding how facilitators and barriers to contributions were experienced: (a) the first-year student-athletes and (b) the sustained contributors. Although the participants in each profile identified teammates, coaches, and athletics department staff as facilitators to contribution, they differed in their interpretation of how these individuals facilitated contributions. First-year student-athletes were more reliant than sustained contributors on having facilitators create contribution opportunities. The profiles also differed in regards to how time constraints were overcome. First-year student-athletes utilized less complex, individual time-management strategies, while sustained contributors collaboratively made use of more advanced time-management strategies to optimize their time.
Is it any Clearer? Generic Qualitative Inquiry and the VSAIEEDC Model of Data Analysis
Authors: Kennedy Dawn
Published: March 2021

This article was designed to assist the novice researcher in determining if a generic qualitative research approach is appropriate for their intended research or dissertation. The article is intended to offer clarification of the approach and builds upon Caelli, Ray, and Mill’s (2003) call for standardized generic qualitative inquiry guidelines. The article takes the researcher through a process of self-evaluation to determine alignment with the five qualitative traditions. While generic qualitative inquiry has been posited to be an easy route, no experience necessary, it’s reliance on the method and tools of traditional qualitative methodologies, quickly can lead the novice researcher to a muddied theoretical mess. This article offers a boilerplate generic analysis method to be used when the approach is generic qualitative inquiry, leaving a clear and concise stand-alone path for the novice researcher. The featured model is the VSAIEEDC method created by seminal author Dr. Roland Persson. The VSAIEEDC model is a cognition-based analysis method with seven steps: variation, specification, abstraction, internal verification, external verification, demonstration and conclusion. This article sought to contribute to the critical discussion of the foundation of generic qualitative inquiry and offers an analysis method in alignment with the fundamentals of a generic qualitative approach.
Encouraging Reflective Practices in Doctoral Students through Research Journals
Authors: Orange Amy
Published: March 2021

This study developed after I read numerous research journals created by my doctoral students. At times, students included considerable amounts of detail, reflecting on their research processes and their roles as researchers. At other times, the journals appeared to be a mere afterthought, seemingly completed in an evening to satisfy the requirement and get a grade. And, as with many things in the introductory qualitative research course, students expressed a need for more structured guidelines for their journals. In response, I developed a set of guidelines and prompts students could use to guide their journal entries. With this study, I discovered that the introduction of guidelines and prompts increased student reflexivity, the level of detail in their journal entries, and the length of their journals increased.
Use of Grounded Theory in Cardiovascular Research
Authors: Dunn Patrick , Margaritis Vasileios , Anderson Cheryl
Published: March 2021

While grounded theory is often cited in the qualitative literature as the methodology, there are few good examples of publications that follow the principles of grounded theory and result in an actual theory. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how the Corbin and Strauss (2015) method of grounded theory was used in a study looking at how patients with cardiovascular disease and diabetes develop health literacy skills that are used to manage their condition. The key principles of grounded theory include theoretical sampling, constant comparison, open, axial, and selective coding, the use of memoing, and theoretical saturation. Data collection in this study was in the form of semi-structured interviews of 16 patients with cardiovascular disease and diabetes, and 19 healthcare professionals that care for or educate these patients. Patients were recruited from a primary care medical practice, a cardiology medical practice, patient focused programs provided by the American Heart Association, and social media. Healthcare professionals were recruited from the medical practices, the American Heart Association, and social media. Each interview was recorded, transcribed, and coded. Insights from these interviews led to the development of the health literacy instructional mode, which explores the use of digital tools, instructional approaches, social support, and self-directed learning in the development of health literacy skills, and is an example of the use of grounded theory in cardiovascular research.
Understanding Health Literacy Skills in Patients with Cardiovascular Disease and Diabetes
Authors: Dunn Patrick , Margaritis Vasileios , Anderson Cheryl
Published: March 2021

Health literacy is the ability to understand and act on health information and is linked to health outcomes. It is unclear how health literacy skills are developed in patients with complex conditions, such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes. The purpose of this grounded theory study was to gain perspectives of both patients and healthcare professionals on how health literacy skills were developed in patients with cardiovascular disease or diabetes. The research questions addressed how knowledge and skills were acquired, the role of digital tools, instructional strategies used by healthcare professionals, and how the instructional strategies of the healthcare professionals matched the learning preferences and needs of the patients. A social ecological framework was used, which underscored the importance of understanding health literacy from multiple sources. Semistructured interviews were conducted on 19 healthcare professionals and 16 patients. Emergent key themes included: (a) social support plays an important role as a learning opportunity; (b) many patients get their information from internet searches; (c) instructional strategies should be personalized, interactive, social, and relevant; and (d) patients are self-directed learners. Linking of these themes led to the development of the health literacy instructional model, which is a 3-step approach, including an emotional support, behavioral approach, and instructional strategy. Social support was the common element in all 3 phases and was perceived to be key to developing health literacy skills, resulting in the key implication for social change. Recommendations are to consider social support in the development of health literacy instructional strategies.

Speech Act Analysis of the Dialogues in Henshaw’s This Is Our Chance
Authors: Yakubu Samaila
Published: March 2021

Speech act analysis is an act of investigating how utterances not only disseminate information but perform actions as well.  Dialogues in Henshaw’s This Is Our Chance are not only employed to exchange information about animosity between the people of Koloro Village and the people of Udura Village but to take actions on matters that involved the two neighbouring villages.  The present paper seeks to explore the dialogues in the above mentioned text to see how they have been used.  The paper adopts speech act theory of J. L. Austin which was later developed by J. R. Searle.  The data for the study were analysed based on speech act theory. Components of directive speech act such as commands and questions are used extensively in the text while those like requests, advice, directives and warnings are used insignificantly; constituents of representative speech act, namely, statements and reports run throughout the text; elements of expressive speech act such as complaints and appreciations are found in the text; declaration speech acts, and constituent of commissive speech act such as promise are used scantly in the text.  The study concludes that speech act theory is the most appropriate instrument for handling civil conflict.

Published: March 2021

La presente investigación se dirigió a corroborar si un estímulo/palabra, cuya función condicionada por medio de su emparejamiento con sonidos de alta intensidad de tipo demora corta y que elicita respuestas valoradas por los sujetos como indeseadas, ejerce control de la estimulación a modo de interferencia o facilitación de respuesta en una prueba de primado semántico cuyos estímulos target son palabras pertenecientes a las categorías deseado o indeseado. Se obtuvo un resultado significativo en la comparación de los grupos por medio de la prueba de Moses en los ensayos incongruentes observándose mayor cantidad de errores en los sujetos experimentales del grupo condicionado, sin embargo, no se encontraron diferencias significativas para el número de errores en ensayos congruentes y latencias en ninguno de los casos. Se explican en la discusión los posibles motivos por los que, a diferencia de los antecedentes de investigación, no se lograron resultados confirmatorios respecto a las latencias, abordando el significado y diferencias entre la no deseabilidad del estímulo condicionado en relación con la deseabilidad o ausencia de ésta de los ti target de la prueba, asimismo, los problemas de control dadas algunas limitaciones instrumentales.
Measuring Hukou Amenity by Using Urban Land Price in China
Authors: Zou Haoxuan , Teng Guannan
Published: March 2021

This paper conducts an empirical study on the land supply with Chinese characteristics in terms of the most different characteristics between China and other major economies in the world, such as Hukou (household registration) system, by combining qualitative and quantitative analysis. The main purpose of this paper is to use land price to measure city amenity in China. By doing this, the spatial distribution of urban residents becomes much more understandable. This paper firstly points out the driving forces of population migration to cities are not only wages, but also cities’ amenity. The paper suggests that it is important to quantify the amenity of a city to understand the specific mechanism of amenity in population flow and regional development. It is found that the amenity of Hukou of other grades is far less than that of those top cities like Beijing. The paper suggests this polarization not only causes the sense of unfairness, but also damages the free flow of elements and economic efficiency. This paper has also recommended some useful thoughts on this issue, like to remove the limitation of population in the super first tier or first tier cities to give full play to the agglomeration effect and advantages of big cities. Besides, the supply of public goods cannot be too concentrated in large cities. The government needs to constantly narrow the regional public service gap on the supply side, gradually eliminate the privileges behind Hukou, and let the Hukou system return to its original meaning.

Purpose. Description and illustration of the most common alternative causes of shortness of breath, cough, and acute chest pain in pandemic COVID-19 conditions. Material and methods. Authors evaluated results of the retrospective single-center study and instrumental data of 67 patients with complaints of sudden chest pain, cough and shortness of breath. For patients admitted to the hospital between March, 27 and June, 30, 2020, the first stage of diagnosis was made with the performed multispiral computed tomography (MSCT) of the chest, confirming the presence of pulmonary manifestations of COVID-19. The study did not include patients with pneumothorax identified at the pre - and hospital stages. We describe early radiographic changes in the chest organs, main vessels, and coronary bed in patients with CT-confirmed COVID-19 admitted to O.M. Filatov Municipal Clinical Hospital No. 15, Moscow for sudden chest pain, cough, and shortness of breath. Results. In CT of the chest organs, combinations of COVID-19 and pulmonary artery thromboembolism, central/peripheral lung cancer, and acute aortic syndrome manifestations were most common. Combinations of radiation techniques in pandemic settings are COVID-19 required by patients with the acute coronary syndrome. However, it will be possible to analyze all cases of a combination of acute chest pain and sudden shortness of breath in patients with COVID-19 only after processing an extensive array of data. Conclusion. In pandemic conditions, COVID-19 performing standard imaging methods should be not lost about the most frequent causes of chest pain and sudden shortness of breath, complementing native MSCT with contrasting enhancement in suspected pathology of the main arteries, and small circulation in high-risk patients.

Published: March 2021

Introduction. Despite the increase in the specific weight of bronchopulmonary dysplasia among children, its true incidence is unknown. The ratio of the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia and associated prematurity remains unexplored. The aim of the study was to analyze the ratio of the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia and prematurity and to predict their dynamics. Material and methods. According to official data, 469 cases of bronchopulmonary dysplasia and the frequency of prematurity in 2012-2017 were studied with the use of a continuous retrospective method. The Brown method’s calculation of the absolute growth, growth rate, growth rate, and forecasting was carried out. The results of the study. An increase in the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia in children occurs simultaneously with an increase in the frequency of prematurity. However, the indices of the growth rate and growth rate of prematurity outstrip those of the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia and the absolute increase in bronchopulmonary dysplasia is significantly higher than for the frequency of prematurity. Short-term prognosis indicates an increase in the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia and the frequency of prematurity. Conclusion. Indices of the dynamics and prognostic estimates of the incidence of children with bronchopulmonary dysplasia and prematurity should be taken into account when managing specialized medical care.

Introduction. Iodine deficiency diseases (IDD) are currently one of the most common pathologies of the endocrine system. The development of these diseases in the Primorsky region depends on the sufficient intake of iodine and various factors of exogenous and endogenous nature. The identification and establishment of the contribution of social and hygienic nature factors in the comprehensive impact to the occurrence and development of thyroid diseases, including IDD, is an important area of research. The aim of the study is to obtain information about the social and hygienic factors that influence the occurrence and development of thyroid pathology, including iodine deficiency diseases. Material and methods. Based on statistical data the dynamics in the population prevalence of diseases of the endocrine system in the Primorsky region was analyzed. To identify social and hygienic factors, a survey of 222 patients of the Center of Endocrinology Regional Clinical Hospital No. 2 (Vladivostok) was performed. Statistical processing of the results of the sociological survey was carried out using the Terentyev correlation pleiades method. Results. The development of thyroid pathology, including IDD, is influenced by unfavorable environmental conditions, physical inactivity and stressful situations in the workplace, unfavorable occupational factors including an exposure to noise, dust, radiation from a personal computer, lifestyle factors due to low physical activity, non-compliance with the waking and sleeping regime. More often, thyroid diseases develop in women and people over 50 years of age. The development of IDD is influenced by the observance of the principles of rational nutrition and the presence of certain foods in the diet. The contribution of these factors in the conditions of their combined impact on the human body is established. Conclusion. The identified complex of social and hygienic factors that are important for the occurrence and development of thyroid diseases can be further used to create targeted programs for the prevention of these diseases in the population of the Primorsky region.

Published: March 2021

Introduction. During oil production, drillers are exposed to harmful occupation production factors: noise, vibration, the severity and intensity of work, microclimatic conditions, oil, and components. The purpose of the study was to conduct comprehensive investigations of working conditions and health status, to assess the occupational risk of drillers at an oil production enterprise. Material and methods. The work was carried out within the framework of the special assessment of working conditions carried out according to the plan. The influence of occupational factors of the production environment on workers’ health was assessed by indices of occupational morbidity and the results of periodic medical examinations of drillers servicing the drilling rig for oil production driller 5000.320 ERO for the period 2013-2018. Results. Analysis of the measured parameters of harmful occupation factors indicates noise, vibration, and psychophysiological indices to be the leading indices of working conditions that affect the employees’ health. The general assessment of employees’ working conditions corresponds to the class- 3.3 (harmful), the category of occupational risk - high (unbearable). The source of harmful effects on workers is the equipment of the drilling rig 5000.320 ERO. Analysis of medical documents drillers over 5 years revealed a link between working conditions and the development of occupational diseases (vibration disease, sensorineural hearing loss); between operating conditions and the development of career-related diseases: musculoskeletal system (arthrosis, arthritis, osteochondrosis, etc.); the peripheral nervous system (radiculitis, plexitis, polyneuritis, etc.); diseases of the respiratory system (bronchitis, pneumonia, asthma, and respiratory diseases, etc.). Conclusion. To prevent the negative impact of harmful production factors at the enterprise it is necessary to provide many preventive measures: automation, mechanization, sealing of equipment, employees have to be equipped with personal protective equipment, improving the quality of preliminary and periodic medical examinations.

The priority problem of various industrial and developing countries, which largely determine the health of the population and, above all, older age groups, is currently eye diseases. Most modern researchers consider age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, and cataracts to be eye diseases. Socially significant eye diseases have a high prevalence and are the leading cause of blindness in various countries. Authors analyzed the prevalence of glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, and cataracts according to domestic and foreign publications in recent years. The results of the studies considered in the scientific review indicate a continuing gain in socially significant eye diseases, the frequency of which increases with age. The high incidence of the studied pathology is observed in China, India, and Russia. The study shows socially significant eye diseases to be the most critical problem in various countries, including the Russian Federation. The relevance of this pathology will increase due to the ongoing aging of the population and an increase in their share in the demographic structure of many states. The high prevalence of age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, and glaucoma leads to an increase in the number of people on the planet with complete or partial vision loss, which significantly disrupts their social functioning and requires significant financial costs for treatment and ensuring an acceptable level and quality of life. The data presented in the review and obtained results are of practical importance for the organization of monitoring of eye diseases and the development of an appropriate state and health strategy.
Who was the translator of the anonymous 1821 of Goethe’s Faustus? Could the translator have been Coleridge?
Authors: Aljumily Refat
Published: March 2021

The 1821 translation of Goethe’s Faustus is not signed by the translator. We know who translated Friedrich Schiller’shistorical dramas ThePiccolominiand The Death of Wallenstein, for example, not because the translator identified himself as Coleridge but based on evidence from within and without. This article offers a three-part review to ‘Faustus’ from the German of Goethe translated by Samuel Taylor Coleridge’ (Oxford University Press, 2007), edited by Frederick Burwick and James C. McKusick. It argues that there is no definitive evidence during Coleridge’s lifetime or for centuries after his death that Coleridge was acting as an anonymous translator of Bossey’s text as Faustus.

Authors: Abuzir Yousef , Dwieb Mohamed
Published: March 2021

With the rapid increase of Information technology, online services and social media, recommendation system becomes an important issue and a need for both the customer and business sectors. The main aim of traditional and online recommendation systems is to recommend the desired and the necessary services that are appropriate recommendations to users. Traditional recommendation systems often suffer from inefficient data analysis techniques, rating the different services without regard to the previous preferences of the users and do not meet the personal demands of the users. Therefore, in this paper we used a hybrid approach based on Knowledge graph and Machine Learning similarity function as a recommendation system. We used real datasets to conduct the experiment. We built the knowledge graph for the visitors, hotels and their ranks, and we used the knowledge graph and similarity scores to recommend a hotel or a set of hotels for the visitors based on former preferences and ratings of other visitors. The results show significant accuracy and good quality of service recommender systems with 93.5% for f-measure.

Authors: Kulikov Vladimir , Kulikova Valentina , Yerkebulan Gulnur
Published: March 2021

The object of this work is to develop a script for evaluating the ability of online translators to translate text from one language to another. For this purpose, we used Google Translate and Yandex.Translate. Examples from English, Kazakh and Russian languages were used for the analysis of 147 news items and about 1800 sentences. The texts are taken from an Internet resource astana.gov.kz. A corpus of parallel texts for three languages has been created. We used development for the “sentence” pattern with the prospect of further development for the “text” pattern. We analyzed errors in the following categories: untranslated/omitted words, extra words, incorrect word endings, incorrect word order, punctuation errors, mutilate translation and incorrect translation. Based on the analysis of the obtained data we have concluded that it is better to do the translation of the Russian text into Kazakh or English in the YandexTranslate than in Google Translate. The developed comparison script and error analysis script are available on the Internet in open access.
Child marriage debates during British India
Authors: SHARMA MANISH
Published: March 2021

The social reformers continuously attacked the custom of child marriage in the mid-nineteenth century, but they could not start an organized campaign for various reasons. Apart from individual feminism, the female voice was also quiet. In the late Nineteenth Century, the reformer’s campaign did not attack the religious aspect of child marriage rather focused on its moral and physical elements. Consequently, they restricted their efforts to the sphere of Age of Consent for sexual Consummation of girls only. The Revivalist leaders' massive opposition compelled the British Indian Government not to interfere with its domestic sphere. The various changes in the first half of the twentieth century supplied a favourable environment to reopen child marriage. In this paper, the author will examine those changes and delineate the shift from “Age of Consent to the age of marriage”.

The primary point of this research is to design a road extraction algorithm for processing National Aeronautics and Space Administration satellite pictures. Roadway network detection is one of the important appointments for calamity emergency response, smart shipping structures, and real-time modify roadway network. Everyone is trying to detect road; this system is useful for urban or rural developing schedule. The development of a town / village depends not only on the building and population density of the town or village, but also in the systematic development of roads. The research focused on finding ways to use morphological image processing primarily. As an application area, we use National Aeronautics and Space Administration imagery obtained from 2009-2020 in Monywa, Upper Myanmar to find out how the roads have been developed and how the city has been developed. Extraction road from planet pictures is hard matter with many realistic application programs. The primary points in the model are the advancement of the picture, the segmentation of that picture, the application of the morphological operators, and finally the detection of the roadway network. Use Google Earth Pro to get the necessary data photos and search for road improvements. After collecting images from different seasons and years, we can find precise answers by combining them with precise algorithms. In addition to significant, benefits of Google Earth Pro, this research demonstrates the ability to make good use of satellite imagery and to integrate it with outside experts to save money, save time, and provide accurate answers.

Acute Liver Failure in Postpartum Period—A Rare Complication of Dengue Infection: A Case Report
Authors: Sapre Shilpa , Upadhyay Henil , Parikh Charmy
Published: March 2021

Aim

Successful management of acute liver failure in a case of dengue infection in postpartum patient by a multidisciplinary approach.

Background

Dengue fever is a viral infection transmitted by the bite ofAedes aegyptimosquito. It is a major public health problem in developing countries like India. Symptomatology of dengue ranges from mild self-limiting illness to fulminant liver failure. Hepatic dysfunction is a known complication in dengue fever that ranges from mild to moderate elevation of serum transaminases to catastrophic fulminant liver failure. Acute liver failure is a rare complication of dengue infection with high mortality rate.

Case description

We report here a case of 19-year-old female who was referred to our center for management of primary postpartum hemorrhage with acute febrile illness. Laboratory investigations revealed anemia, thrombocytopenia, and positive dengue NS1 antigen test. The patient was managed in the critical care unit for pulmonary edema, acute kidney injury, and deranged coagulation profile secondary to hepatic dysfunction. Postpartum hemorrhage was another challenge tackled conservatively. The spectrum of liver involvement varied from a modest rise in transaminases in the early phase and culminating finally in acute hepatic failure by the end of 2 weeks. Multiple blood and blood products were transfused during her 1 month stay in intensive care. There was no perinatal transmission. A multidisciplinary approach involving obstetricians, intensivists, and gastroenterologists resulted in successful recovery of the patient from acute liver failure.

Conclusion

Clinicians should have a high index of suspicion for dengue fever in endemic areas in a case of acute febrile illness with/without the classical signs and symptoms of dengue fever. Pregnancy poses a special challenge for the obstetrician as delivery during this period can have devastating complications. A multidisciplinary approach with cautious fluid management is advisable in patients with severe dengue infection. Postpartum hemorrhage can be one of the life-threatening complications due to thrombocytopenia and deranged coagulation profile. Acute liver failure is a rare complication but can develop in patients with severe hepatitis.

Clinical significance

Dengue infection in pregnancy can mimic other causes of thrombocytopenia like HELLP syndrome, megaloblastic anemia, and gestational thrombocytopenia; hence, a detailed evaluation is warranted in pregnant women presenting with acute febrile illness with thrombocytopenia. Liver involvement in dengue infection can have devastating consequences leading to severe hepatitis and acute liver failure.

Published: March 2021

Background

Struma ovarii is a rare ovarian neoplasm, which contains thyroid tissue. It accounts for less than 5% of ovarian teratomas. These are mostly benign, occurring between 40 years and 60 years of age. Clinical and radiological features are inconclusive and mostly it is diagnosed by histopathology. About 5–8% cases have hyperthyroidism. Cystic struma ovarii is very rare with only 25 cases reported till now. It creates confusion in diagnosis, as even in histopathology, the cells are mostly like those resembling other cystic ovarian tumors with minimal thyroid follicles.

Case description

A 20-year-old girl came with complaints of abdominal discomfort and difficulty in squatting and lying supine. Clinically, a 28-week-size cystic tumor was palpated. Ultrasound showed features of a cystic benign tumor. Tumor markers were normal. Laparoscopic cystectomy was done. Histopathology showed cystic struma ovarii. At 6-month follow-up, the patient has been doing well.

Conclusion

Cystic struma ovarii is a rare diagnosis. Clinical, biochemical, and radiological features do not help. A careful and keen pathological examination is necessary so that thyroid follicles are not left while viewing. There is no clear consensus on follow-up of these patients, but benign tumors usually do not need extensive follow-up.

Clinical significance

It is a rare tumor and a good histopathological diagnosis is needed. Cystic tumors should be carefully examined. A proper correlation between clinical, biochemical, radiological, intraoperative, and histopathological findings may help us to consider this diagnosis when we get similar cases.

Efficacy of Surgical Transversus Abdominis Plane Block in Patients Undergoing Cesarean Delivery
Authors: Sravani Penumuchu , Rajanna Sira P , Saxena Rajiv K
Published: March 2021

Background

The surgical transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block is an established technique for postoperative analgesia following abdominal surgery. However, it has not been practiced frequently by obstetricians. This work was done to study the efficacy of the surgical TAP block after cesarean delivery (CD).

Materials and methods

The study included 100 women undergoing CD in MVJ Medical College and Research Hospital, Hoskote, Bengaluru, Karnataka. The operating obstetrician performed a surgical TAP block for 50 participants in the “Study” group. Twenty milliliters of 0.25% bupivacaine was injected in the transversus abdominis neurofascial plane, on either side. Another 50 participants were included in the “Control” group. Postoperatively, visual analog scores (VAS) for pain were monitored for 24 hours. Whenever the patient demanded rescue analgesia or VAS was recorded as 4 or more, rescue analgesia was administered with intravenous injection tramadol 50 mg. The time of the first rescue analgesia and the total dose of rescue analgesics required in the first 24 hours were recorded. The patients in the “Control” group routinely received intravenous injection tramadol 50 mg, 8th hourly for pain relief.

Results

The difference in the mean VAS score at all time intervals between the two groups was statistically significant (p< 0.05). The mean time to first rescue analgesia in the “Study” group and “Control” group was 11.7 ± 7.344 and 2.1 ± 1.125 hours, respectively, and the total tramadol consumption was 50 ± 28.571 and 180 ± 26.726 mg, respectively. This difference was statistically highly significant (p< 0.001).

Conclusion

Surgical TAP block is an important adjunct in the multimodal pain management strategy and should be practiced more often in obstetric practice.

Ovarian Collision Tumors
Authors: Sundaram Sandhya , Usha Rani G , Sujithra Shanmugam , Rajendiran S , Susruthan M
Published: March 2021

Background

A collision tumor is the coexistence of two distinct tumors without any histological intermixing in the same organ or tissue. Though these types of tumors are often seen in various organs, their occurrence in the ovary is rare.

Case description

Here, we have reported a case series of three collision tumors—serous cystadenoma with mature cystic teratoma, mucinous cystadenoma with benign cystic teratoma, and a case of serous cystadenofibroma with mature cystic teratoma.

Clinical significance

It is important to identify collision tumors and also document all their components for optimal treatment.

“Surgery-first Orthognathic Approach” for Correction of Skeletal Class III with Open Bite
Authors: Vijayalakshmi Devaki , Divakar Reshme Radha , Parameswaran Ratna , Jayapal Janani
Published: March 2021

Introduction

This case report illustrates the treatment of a skeletal class III patient with the surgery-first orthognathic approach (SFOA) protocol.

Background

“Surgery-first orthognathic approach” is a growing trend that provides an immediate facial change. The SFOA protocol utilizes dentoalveolar compensation as the key advantage to effect immediate facial change, which in conjunction with the rapid acceleratory phenomenon (RAP) augments the intended tooth movement, thereby reducing the total treatment duration.

Case description

A 24-year-old male presented with forwardly placed lower jaw with associated difficulty during eating. Clinical examination revealed severe lip incompetency, mandibular excess, class III skeletal malocclusion, severe bimaxillary incisor proclination, posterior crossbite, and lower midline shift toward right on an average mandibular plane angle.

Conclusion

The SFOA protocol involving bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) mandibular setback along with the correction of the pitch and yaw was performed and the orthodontic phase was followed.

Clinical significance

The total treatment time was 5 months and 15 days, following which excellent facial transformation and stable occlusion was achieved.
