OBJECTIVE

Diabetes insipidus (DI) following transsphenoidal surgery can adversely impact quality of life and be difficult to manage. This study sought to characterize pre- and perioperative risk factors that may predispose patients to DI after pituitary surgery.

METHODS

A retrospective review of patients treated at a single institution from 2007 to 2019 was conducted. DI was defined as postoperative sodium > 145 mEq/L and urine output > 300 ml/hr and/or postoperative desmopressin (ddAVP) use. DI was further characterized as transient or permanent. Uni- and multivariate analyses were performed to determine variables associated with postoperative DI.

RESULTS

The authors identified 2529 patients who underwent transsphenoidal surgery at their institution. Overall, DI was observed in 270 (10.7%) of the 2529 patients, with 114 (4.5%) having permanent DI and 156 (6.2%) with transient symptoms. By pathology type, DI occurred in 31 (46.3%) of 67 craniopharyngiomas, 10 (14.3%) of 70 apoplexies, 46 (14.3%) of 322 Rathke’s cleft cysts, 77 (7.7%) of 1004 nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas (NFPAs), and 62 (7.6%) of 811 functioning pituitary adenomas (FPAs). Final lesion pathology significantly affected DI rates (p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis across pathologies showed that younger age (odds ratio [OR] 0.97, p < 0.001), intraoperative CSF encounter (OR 2.74, p < 0.001), craniopharyngioma diagnosis (OR 8.22, p = 0.007), and postoperative hyponatremia (OR 1.50, p = 0.049) increased the risk of DI. Because surgery for each pathology created specific risk factors for DI, the analysis was then limited to the 1815 pituitary adenomas (PAs) in the series, comprising 1004 NFPAs and 811 FPAs. For PAs, younger age (PA: OR 0.97, p < 0.001; NFPA: OR 0.97, p < 0.001; FPA: OR 0.97, p = 0.028) and intraoperative CSF encounter (PA: OR 2.99, p < 0.001; NFPA: OR 2.93, p < 0.001; FPA: OR 3.06, p < 0.001) increased DI rates in multivariate analysis. Among all PAs, patients with DI experienced peak sodium levels later than those without DI (postoperative day 11 vs 2). Increasing tumor diameter increased the risk of DI in FPAs (OR 1.52, p = 0.008), but not in NFPAs (p = 0.564).

CONCLUSIONS

In more than 2500 patients treated at a single institution, intraoperative CSF encounter, craniopharyngioma diagnosis, and young age all increased the risk of postoperative DI. Patients with postoperative hyponatremia exhibited higher rates of DI, suggesting possible bi- or triphasic patterns to DI. Greater vigilance should be maintained in patients meeting these criteria following transsphenoidal surgery to ensure early recognition and treatment of DI.
Decline of verbal fluency with lateral superior frontal gyrus penetration in subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation for Parkinson disease
Authors: Askari Asra , Greif Taylor R. , Lam Jordan , Maher Amanda C. , Persad Carol C. , Patil Parag G.
Published: February 2022

OBJECTIVE

Verbal fluency (VF) decline is a well-recognized adverse cognitive outcome following subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN DBS) in patients with Parkinson disease (PD). The mechanisms underlying VF decline, whether from stimulation, lesioning, or both, remain unclear. This study aims to investigate the unique effects of DBS lead trajectory on VF beyond previously reported effects of active contact location.

METHODS

The study population included 56 patients with idiopathic PD who underwent bilateral STN DBS. Phonemic and semantic VF scores were compared pre- and postoperatively. Features of the electrode trajectory were measured on postoperative imaging, including distance from the falx cerebri, distance from the superior frontal sulcus, and caudate nucleus penetration. The authors used t-tests, Pearson’s correlation, and multiple linear regression analyses to examine the relationship between VF change and demographic, disease, and electrode trajectory variables.

RESULTS

The laterality of entry within the left superior frontal gyrus (SFG) predicted greater phonemic VF decline (sr2 = 0.28, p < 0.001) after controlling for active contact location. VF change did not differ by the presence of caudate nucleus penetration in either hemisphere (p > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONS

Lateral penetration of the SFG in the left hemisphere is associated with worsening phonemic VF and has greater explanatory power than active contact location. This may be explained by lesioning of the lateral SFG–Broca area pathway, which is implicated in language function.
Motor speech effects in subthalamic deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s disease
Authors: Kluin Karen J. , Mossner James M. , Costello Joseph T. , Chou Kelvin L. , Patil Parag G.
Published: February 2022

OBJECTIVE

A motor speech disorder or dysarthria commonly arises in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). The impact of subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) on motor speech and the potential of intraoperative motor speech testing to predict outcomes are unknown. This study examined 1) the types and prevalence of motor speech changes observed with STN DBS and their relation to the preoperative condition, 2) the ability of intraoperative testing to predict postoperative changes in motor speech, and 3) the spatial relationship between stimulation sites producing maximal motor improvement, as measured by the Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS), and maximal motor speech deterioration.

METHODS

Comprehensive preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative motor speech/dysarthria evaluations were performed in consecutive patients with advanced idiopathic PD who underwent STN DBS surgery in the period from 2011 to 2016. Preoperative type of dysarthria and overall dysarthria severity rating along with intraoperative motor speech testing results were evaluated as predictors of postoperative change. Atlas-independent, fully individualized field modeling was used to identify stimulation sites associated with maximal MDS-UPDRS motor improvement and motor speech deterioration.

RESULTS

Forty-three patients with PD treated with STN DBS were prospectively studied. Improved MDS-UPDRS motor scores and worsened dysarthria were demonstrated by a subset of patients (16/43). Preoperative dysarthria characteristics did not predict postoperative deterioration. Intraoperative assessment of motor speech strongly predicted postoperative outcomes (OR 4.4, p = 0.02). Sites of maximal MDS-UPDRS motor improvement and worsened dysarthria were distinct. Worsened dysarthria was associated with capsular stimulation, anterior and ventral to the site of maximal MDS-UPDRS motor improvement.

CONCLUSIONS

The predictive reliability of intraoperative motor speech testing, together with the identification of distinct stimulation sites for motor speech impairment and improved MDS-UPDRS motor function, raise the possibility that DBS lead repositioning or reprogramming could reduce adverse effects on motor speech without impacting MDS-UPDRS motor outcomes in patients undergoing STN DBS.

OBJECTIVE

Patients with myelomeningocele often require multiple surgeries, but no study has clarified the kind of treatment given to these patients throughout their lives. The authors analyzed the type of surgery that was performed and at what age for Japanese patients with myelomeningoceles.

METHODS

The Japanese health claims data of 556 patients with myelomeningocele for the period from January 2005 to March 2020 provided by the Japan Medical Data Center Co., Ltd., were examined to investigate the number of surgeries performed and the patient age at surgery for each specialty. The patients were divided into two groups (those ≤ 18 years old [group A] and those > 18 years old [group B]), and the way in which the types of surgery and the percentage of surgeries changed between these two groups was examined.

RESULTS

The mean follow-up period was 4.4 years. The mean age at the end of the overall follow-up was 18.6 years (range 0–70.5 years), and 1033 surgeries were performed on 294 patients (0.42 surgeries performed per patient per year) during this period. The number of surgeries for patients in group A was 818 in 192 patients, with 0.62 surgeries per patient per year, and for patients in group B it was 215 in 102 patients, with 0.19 surgeries per patient per year. The number of surgeries and the mean age at the time of surgery were as follows: 313 neurosurgeries, 5.16 years; 280 orthopedic surgeries, 11.36 years; 70 urological surgeries, 14.57 years; and 202 dermatological/plastic surgeries, 16.19 years. In the surgeries related to myelomeningocele, the rates of CSF shunt placement, tethered cord release, muscle and tendon surgery, and other bone and joint surgery decreased significantly in group B, but they continued to undergo these surgeries. In group B, the rates of skin surgery, nephrostomy, ureterostomy, and cystostomy were significantly higher.

CONCLUSIONS

A significant number of surgeries in multiple specialties related to myelomeningocele continue to be performed in adulthood, indicating that these patients require continuous care throughout their lives.

OBJECTIVE

Combinations of certain social risk factors of race, sex, education, socioeconomic status (SES), insurance, education, employment, and one’s housing situation have been associated with poorer pain and disability outcomes after lumbar spine surgery. To date, an exploration of such factors in patients with cervical spine surgery has not been conducted. The objective of the current work was to 1) define the social risk phenotypes of individuals who have undergone cervical spine surgery for myelopathy and 2) analyze their predictive capacity toward disability, pain, quality of life, and patient satisfaction–based outcomes.

METHODS

The Cervical Myelopathy Quality Outcomes Database was queried for the period from January 2016 to December 2018. Race/ethnicity, educational attainment, SES, insurance payer, and employment status were modeled into unique social phenotypes using latent class analyses. Proportions of social groups were analyzed for demonstrating a minimal clinically important difference (MCID) of 30% from baseline for disability, neck and arm pain, quality of life, and patient satisfaction at the 3-month and 1-year follow-ups.

RESULTS

A total of 730 individuals who had undergone cervical myelopathy surgery were included in the final cohort. Latent class analysis identified 2 subgroups: 1) high risk (non-White race and ethnicity, lower educational attainment, not working, poor insurance, and predominantly lower SES), n = 268, 36.7% (class 1); and 2) low risk (White, employed with good insurance, and higher education and SES), n = 462, 63.3% (class 2). For both 3-month and 1-year outcomes, the high-risk group (class 1) had decreased odds (all p < 0.05) of attaining an MCID score in disability, neck/arm pain, and health-related quality of life. Being in the low-risk group (class 2) resulted in an increased odds of attaining an MCID score in disability, neck/arm pain, and health-related quality of life. Neither group had increased or decreased odds of being satisfied with surgery.

CONCLUSIONS

Although 2 groups underwent similar surgical approaches, the social phenotype involving non-White race/ethnicity, poor insurance, lower SES, and poor employment did not meet MCIDs for a variety of outcome measures. This finding should prompt surgeons to proactively incorporate socially conscience care pathways within healthcare systems, as well as to optimize community-based resources to improve outcomes and personalize care for populations at social risk.

Johann Paul von Westhoff's character was a determining figure of the late 17th and early 18th century. Having a strong impact both on his contemporary fellow composers as well as the future generations like J.S.Bach, J.G.Pisendel, G.Ph.Telemann, etc. For me, Westhoff embodies the perfect 17th century violin virtuoso. Analyzing and playing these magnificient solo suites I found a very obvious similarity between the Bach Solo Sonatas and Partitas and Westhoff's Six Solo Suites for Violin Solo."
Disinhibition of the public through happening- performance (IV.)
Authors:   Transilvania University of Brasov, Romania, Beldean L. , Tutu C. ,   Transilvania University of Brasov, Romania
Published: February 2022

The paper tackles the impact of the stage performance upon the public, the algorithm through which the theatrical event entered in the captivity of mass manipulation and the development of the dramatic concepts, aiming to decode the implied power relationship between scene and audience, thanks to the evolution of philosophical thinking from genuine skepticism to modern rationalism, from the judgment of taste to critical judgment and social activism. Further, in the psychological key, the consequences of the dual division of the show space, the sociological markers in theatre architecture, and the pattern of the Wagnerian scenic space were studied, allowing insights into the history of mentalities and into the pattern of art reception.
A stylistic approach to Mihail Jora's pianistics as reflected in the cycle “Five Songs for Voice and Piano on Poems” by Octavian Goga, op. 11
Authors:   National University of Music Bucharest, Romania, DOBIA Andreea
Published: February 2022

Jora’s songs are musical architectural miniatures with a significant dramatic component, carefully wrought with regard to prosody and diction. The performer’s stage presence, gestures attitude next to sound, and word are constitutive parts of the musical discourse. The philosophical state that the composer projects in his sonorities are specific to the early 20th century. His interest in philosophical concepts and his views on life, the attention to love, nature, and symbolism are found in the selection of the lyrics alongside compositional means, prosody, the art of singing, and that of piano playing.
The Bible and Musical Postmodernism
Authors:   Transilvania University of Brasov, Romania, MĂNĂILESCU Sorana
Published: February 2022

The paper examines formal changes of traditional church music in postmodernism: the choice of brief passages in the Bible characterised by soul searching (Jesus musing on his destiny, experiencing confusion about his purpose and mission), heroic acts (Esther and Judith saving the Jewish people), self-sacrifice and moral fables rather than key chapters of dogmatic stringency. Characteristic of postmodernist aesthetics are the combination of high and low art, fragmentation, and hybridity. Music rooted in the Bible draws on heterogeneous sources, such as medieval religious mysteries (the Wakefield Mysteries), jazz, folk music (Celtic, Far Eastern or East European, as in James MacMillan’s Seven Last Words from the Cross, 1994) quasi ancient music (actually a pastiche, as in Howard Goodall’s The Beautitudes, 2009). The sacramental atmosphere is lost in a narrative about a tamed and belittled Jesus figure: The Boy (1977) by David Palmer, or El Niňo (2000) by John Adams. These compositions at the turn of the millennium are belated and sublimated echoes of the rock operas of the ’70s, which carried with them intimations of politics (as in Yale Marshall’s The Business of Good Government, 1970), disseminating concern for the public spirit, care for the wretched of the earth, support for the hippie movement and ideology (especially Lloyd-Weber’s Jesus Christ Superstar).
Theme avec variations – le defi des menetriers?

Published: February 2022

Le but de cette recherche est de récupérer les idées musicales véhiculées par certains ménétriers qui les ont utilisées sans en préciser la source, c’est un essai de relever les mérites des ménétriers de haute tenue interprétative qui détiennent une technique instrumentale particulière, ayant un impact positif à l’auditoire avec un univers culturel un peu limité. C’est un sujet délicat par la difficulté à identifier et analyser toute ressemblance, c’est aussi difficile de l’aborder et surtout de ne pas déranger gratuitement afin d’obtenir cependant l’effet escompté. Tout cela, je le fais pour mes élèves et pour ceux qui auront accès à cette recherche! L’ennui c’est que certains ménétriers consacrés, au moins ceux de leur confrérie ne reconnaissent pas la source du thème , répondant le plus souvent à la question „D’où vous est-il venue cette idée?” par „j’en ai des tas…”. „Les idées” sont à la portée de l’interprète- compositeur; celui-ci profitant ainsi de l’ignorance du public, amateur exclusif de ce genre de musique , il est très attentif à d’autres genres musicaux souvent même à des bandes-son des films célèbres (Aimez-vous Brahms?), il „emprunte” le thème et l’adapte „à la longueur d’onde” du public!... Est-ce que c’est une forme de culturalisation? La réponse c’est que „cela pourrait être une forme de culturalisation à condition qu’elle annonce la source du thème”, à la façon des compositeurs de musique classique: „Variations sur un thème de…”! Ainsi, l’auditoire que j’appelerais „de niche” pourrait être informé ou encore, il pourrait s’intéresser lui-même à la source. Peut-être!... Sans aucune intention de minimaliser ou de stigmatiser le phénomène, de blâmer la valeur des ménétriers, parfois géniaux en ce qu’ils recréent effectivement, dans un style accessible à un public limité et restrictif, je dois reconnaître que leur valeur est incontestable dans l’improvisation et dans les opportunités qu’ils fructifient au maximum!
