Authors: Duchania Sunil Kumar
Published: May 2023

In this study the patella bones from both right and left sides were taken out of 60 individuals (30 males and 30 females). Bones were kept in 5% sodium hypochlorite solution for a week for maceration, and then dried and following measurements were taken: Maximum Length, Maximum Width, Maximum Thickness and Lateral Articular Facet Breadth in millimeters, and Weight in grams. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS 27.0. Descriptive statistics were obtained for each measurement. Males and females were analyzed separately. Using a two-sample t-test for the parametric data, the mean values of the six measurements were compared between the two sexes to determine if statistically significant differences exist. Receiver operator curve was also applied. Discriminant Equation was obtained. The North Indian population was compared with other populations. In the present study, the mean maximum height of the right side was 37.51mm+3.17SD for females and 41.54mm+2.76SD for males, while the mean of the left side was 37.91mm+2.95SD for females and 42.61mm+2.97SD for males. The sexual dimorphism was significant statistically, with a p-value <0.001 for both sides. The projected cut off value on the right side was 39.56mm with a projected sensitivity of 86.7% and projected specificity of 73.3%, while on the left side cut off value was 38.76mm with a projected sensitivity of 93.3% and projected specificity of 63.3%. The accuracy for classifying males and females based on left and right was 78.3% and 80% respectively. The mean maximum breadth of right side was found to be 37.16mm+3.07SD for females and 42.99mm+2.51SD for males while the mean maximum breadth of left side was found to be 37.88mm+2.95SD for females and 42.61mm+2.97SD for males. The sexual dimorphism was found to be significant statistically with a p value <0.001 for both sides. The projected cut off value on right side was 40.48mm with a projected sensitivity of 90.0% and projected specificity of 96.7% while on left side cut off value was 39.85mm with a projected sensitivity of 90.0% and projected specificity of 83.3%. In the present study, measurements taken on patella bone showed higher mean values for males as compared with females (p<0.001).

Introdução: Disfagia é um distúrbio de deglutição com sinais e sintomas específicos, caracterizada por alterações em qualquer fase ou entre as fases da dinâmica de deglutição, de origem congênita ou adquirida, podendo gerar prejuízo pulmonar, nutricional e social. É um transtorno frequentemente encontrado no centro de tratamento intensivo (CTI). Sendo assim, a identificação precoce dos principais agentes etiológicos para transtornos de deglutição é essencial para promover uma assistência fonoaudiológica mais adequada. Objetivo: Verificar a associação entre características epidemiológicas e clínicas com o desfecho contraindicação fonoaudiológica de alimentação por via oral em pacientes internados em um CTI. Métodos: Estudo transversal que avaliou pacientes internados no CTI submetidos a avaliação clínica da deglutição no período entre outubro de 2018 e maio de 2019. O nível 1 da Escala funcional de ingestão por via oral (FOIS) foi considerado de maior risco para aspiração respiratória e comparado com os níveis FOIS 2-7. Variáveis epidemiológicas e clínicas foram obtidas a partir dos registros dos pacientes. Análises univariadas e multivariadas foram realizadas para identificar associações e efeitos entre as variáveis e o desfecho contraindicação da alimentação por via oral. O nível de significância adotado foi de 5% e as análises foram realizadas no programa SPSS v.21.0. Resultados: Foram incluídos 128 pacientes (64,9% submetidos a intubação orotraqueal – IOT; idade de 60 ± 15,3 anos). Pacientes com FOIS 1 permaneceram mais dias em IOT, tiveram a internação no CTI prolongada e a cada dia de internação apresentaram risco de 5% de contraindicação da alimentação por via oral na avaliação fonoaudiológica. Conclusão: Foi evidenciada associação entre maior tempo de intubação orotraqueal, além de maior tempo de internação prévio, com a contraindicação da alimentação por via oral.

Published: May 2023

Las primeras viviendas construidas en Uruguay bajo el sistema cooperativo se reconocen como ejemplos de alta calidad espacial y constructiva, un modo social y políticamente legitimado de construcción colectiva del hábitat. A diferencia de otras experiencias conservan vigencia disciplinar, gozando de la aprobación de los usuarios y los profesionales, en un escenario donde las esferas de la vida en común, las normatividades de género y la administración de los recursos son centro de debates. Este artículo analiza el contexto en que surgieron, presentando actores y arriesgando hipótesis interpretativas. Se detiene en el primer gran conjunto, proyectado en 1972 y construido por ayuda mutua en la periferia noreste de Montevideo, estudiando los elementos físicos que lo constituyen. A partir de este caso se contrastan las posibilidades iniciales con los cambios operados en el sistema cooperativo. Más que idealizar nostálgicamente la experiencia, se busca revisar los intereses en juego, la vigencia de modelo, las luces y oscuridades del proceso recorrido.

The foundation is the lower part of the structure which functions to continue the load of the upper structure as a result of the forces that occur in the upper structure. The choice of foundation type is influenced by the location of the hard soil depth. The amount of bearing capacity is also influenced by the cross-sectional shape of the foundation. In this study, a pile foundation with square, triangular, and circular sections and a drill pile was compared to obtain a foundation alternative that was more effective with different sections in terms of strength with relatively the same cross-sectional area and more efficient in terms of implementation in the field and at a lower cost economical. This research took a case study on the Inna Sanur Beach Hotel Development Project with clay and sand conditions. The calculation of the carrying capacity of a single pile foundation is carried out by taking the calculation of the bearing capacity based on the SPT value and the sondir value. The maximum load received by the piles in the group is calculated so that it is not greater than the carrying capacity of a single pile. The pile foundation with square sections has the largest bearing capacity of the pile group and the drill pile has the smallest bearing capacity of the pile group. The maximum load control received by the pile group is smaller than the carrying capacity of a single pile foundation so that the structure is safe. In terms of implementation, the pile foundation is more efficient and more economical than the bored pile foundation.

As an earthquake prone area, building earthquake-resistant houses is a basic necessity for Bengkulu Province residents. The simple symmetrical house plan provides better structure to withstand earthquakes. Batu Kuning is a village located in Ulu Manna District, South Bengkulu Regency, Bengkulu Province. This village is a village that was affected by the earthquake in 2000 and 2007, as well as other earthquakes, although the impact was not as big as the two earthquakes. In the event of the earthquake, several houses were not heavily damaged or destroyed so they are still inhabited today. Observations made by the author found a tendency for the shape of the house to be simple, symmetrical and tend to be rectangular. The research method was carried out by distributing questionnaires to respondents with a total of 26 samples. The results of the questionnaire were processed and analyzed using the SPSS Version 26 program, which included data validity and reliability tests. The results obtained showed 26.72% in strength and resilience factors, 25.63% in economic and cost factors, 25.63% in construction factors, and 22.02% in customs and environmental factors. The dominant factor is the construction factor, with an indicator that the construction of a rectangular house is easier to work on. The suitability level of old people's houses with the principle of earthquake-resistant houses shows that 73.08% uses a continuous river stone foundation with a depth of more than 45 cm. 92.31% of the old community house structure in Batu Kuning Village, Ulu Manna Subdistrict, using wooden columns and beams. The use of lightweight (zinc) roofs is in accordance with the principles of building earthquake-resistant houses.
A Forest in the City: Contemplative Practice for Difficult Times
Authors: Chang David
Published: May 2023

In this short narrative-essay, David Chang presents what he learned after spending a year in contemplative solitude on a remote off-grid island along the coast of BC, offering “invitations to live the stillness of the forest in the bustle of the city”. Chang makes the case that those blessed with the time and resources to practice contemplative solitude have an (educational) commitment to share these lessons and insights with broader society, arguing that “Contemplation becomes insignificant if it cannot address the pressing problems of our day”.
The Four Protocols of Engagement and HOW to Apply Them
Authors: Schneider Joyce
Published: May 2023

In response to concerns as to how to respectfully mobilize Canada's 2015 Truth and Reconciliation (TRC) 94 Calls to Action in our teaching/learning and/or life practices, I developed the Four Protocols of Engagement as a starting point for those ready to authentically engage with First Peoples, their/our lands, and ways of doing, knowing, and valuing. I demonstrate how I apply the Four Protocols in my own work through detailing how each protocol enacted requires preparatory knowledge seeking and actions to make meaningful and impactful Land Acknowledgements. I conclude by reflecting on the content and practices outlined in this example of implementing the Four Protocols of Engagement using the HOW self-assessment tool that I designed for use prior to and during our engagement with knowledges and practices from Nations not our own, in order to ensure that we are approaching this work in authentic, non-appropriating, heartfelt, humble, and mutually respectful and beneficial ways.

Introduction: Human fascioliasis is a plant-borne and water-borne infection caused by the trematodes Fasciola hepatica and Fasciola gigantica. It is one of the main neglected tropical diseases, and infections in humans occur via the ingestion of contaminated water and food. This study reviews all the recorded cases of human fascioliasis in Brazil under different climatic conditions in the national territory. Methodology:A survey of human fascioliasis cases in Brazil was carried out using the Google Scholar, Lilacs and PubMed databases. The climatic variables such as temperature, precipitation, moisture and altitude were obtained from the database of the Instituto Nacional de Meteorologia (INMET). Results: Between the years 1958 and 2022, sixty-six cases of human fascioliasis were recorded in places with temperature levels between 22 °C to 33 °C, humidity 78% to 86%, precipitation 90 mm to 167 mm, and at an altitude of 16 to 935 meters above sea level. Conclusion: The parasite’s ability to adapt to different climatic conditions is observed in Brazil and the number of cases of human fascioliasis in the national territory may be higher due to underreporting related to the difficulty in diagnosing the infection.

Current updates on melasma treatments
Authors: Goel Apratim , Trivedi Nishi
Published: May 2023

Melasma is a common chronic relapsing pigmentary disorder primarily affecting women. It is highly prevalent in the Indian skin type with a large psychological impact. Treatment is challenging with no cure available yet. Even so, treatment modalities are many and varied-each promising more than the last. We analyzed the understanding of photoprotection, topical and oral treatments, and procedures such as microneedling, laser resurfacing, and peelings that serve as the primary methods for controlling and preventing this illness. While there are a few well established treatments such as hydroquinone and triple combination creams, side effects impede their long-term use. Safer alternatives have now come up which can be used for extended durations such as kojic acid, rucinol, and cysteamine cream. Lasers and light therapies have slowly become an essential component of melasma management. In this manuscript, we attempt to provide a critical and concise review of the current updates in melasma therapy.
Validation and usability of modified palmoplantar psoriasis area and severity index in patients with palmoplantar psoriasis: A prospective longitudinal cohort study

Published: May 2023

Background

Palmoplantar psoriasis (PPP), a troublesome variant, does not have any validated scoring system to assess disease severity.

Objective

To validate modified Palmoplantar Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (m-PPPASI) in patients affected with PPP and to categorise it based on Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI).

Methods

In this prospective study, patients with PPP aged > 18 years visiting the psoriasis clinic at a tertiary care centre were included and requested to complete DLQI during each visit at baseline, 2nd week, 6th and 12th week. m-PPPASI was used by the raters to determine the disease severity.

Results

Overall, 73 patients were included. m-PPPASI demonstrated high internal consistency (α = 0.99), test-retest reliability of all three raters, that is, Adithya Nagendran (AN) (r = 0.99, p < 0.0001), Tarun Narang (TN) (r = 1.0, p < 0.0001) and Sunil Dogra (SD) (r = 1.0, p < 0.0001) and inter-rater agreement (intra-class correlation coefficient = 0.83). Face and content validity index for items I-CVI = 0.845 were robust, and the instrument was uniformly rated as easy to use (Likert scale 2) by all three raters. It was found to be responsive to change (r = 0.92, p < 0.0001). Minimal clinically important differences (MCID)-1 and MCID-2 calculated by receiver operating characteristic curve using DLQI as anchor were 2 and 35%, respectively. DLQI equivalent cutoff points for m-PPPASI were 0–5 for mild, 6–9 for moderate, 10–19 for severe, and 20–72 for very severe disease.

Limitation

Small sample size and single-center validation were the major limitations. m-PPPASI doesn’t objectively measure all characteristics of PPP such as “fissuring” and “scaling” which could also be taken into consideration.

Conclusion

m-PPPASI is validated in PPP and can be readily utilized by physicians. However, further large-scale studies are needed.

Published: May 2023

The aim of this report is to describe our experience in managing cases of difficult inferior vena cava (IVC) filter retrieval with emphasis on different advanced retrieval techniques. We report three cases of difficult IVC filter retrieval at our institution. We included three patients age ranging from 42 to 72 years. Two of the cases were presenting with the lower limb deep vein thrombosis and one of the cases had pulmonary embolism and they all had Retrievable Celect Platinum IVC filter (Cook Medical, Bloomington, Ind.) inserted preoperatively. One case was managed conservatively after failing IVC filter retrieval using standard retrieval set, meaning the filter was left in place, one was successfully removed with advanced endovascular retrieval techniques, and one failing advanced endovascular retrieval and finally had it removed with open surgery. We reviewed the risk factors contributing to difficult IVC filter retrieval and discussed the different options for managing these cases including conservative management, endovascular treatment, and open surgery for retrievable type of IVC filter which can be placed permanently. Knowledge of these options will help us better understand conditions, leading to difficult IVC retrieval on insertion, hopefully to minimize the occurrence of these cases, and to better manage cases with difficult IVC filter retrieval to decide the best option for each patient after careful consideration and multidisciplinary discussion with surgeons and patients.

The most specified wood borer Barnea candida’s has been recorded during three consecutive years from 2015 to 2018 as live form in the river belt of Brahmani and Baitarani mangrove dominated areas of Dhamra estuary. The carcasses of the observed wood borer were found in huge number in and around of Dhamra Port. Present study further declared that the range extension of Barnea candida occurred from Subarnarekha estuary to Dhamra estuary by showing a southward migration. During the survey, other molluscan dead shells were also observed along with the wood borer which could be the consequences of port and harbour related activities. It is well known that Barnea candida is an efficient substrate destructor of wooden boats, shipwrecks, jetty pillars and also cemented structures of fishing harbours in the marine and brackish water ecosystem. Therefore, the observed species might be a threat for the Dhamra ecosystem in future which needs long-term integrated research in future.
