La Educación En El Contexto De La Globalización
Authors: Monroy Farí­as Miguel
Published: May 2021

RESUMEN El trabajo es el resultado de la reflexión sobre la experiencia en la enseñanza y el aprendizaje de la asignatura de ”La educación en el contexto de la globalización”, y del análisis de repre­sentaciones de profesores que estudian la maestrí­a en educación, sobre sus concepciones con relación a esta sociedad de cambios rápidos, de pasos acelerados, que va muy de prisa y que deja escaso tiempo para pensar. Se analiza primero ”la vida de los profesores fuera de las aulas”: el agobio, la angustia, la inseguridad y la incertidumbre que les genera la globalización. En segundo lugar, se reflexiona sobre ”la vida de los profesores en las aulas” y la presencia de las repercusiones funestas de la globalización en ellas. Finalmente, se propone una alternativa para el desarrollo profesional de los docentes: la reflexión docente. ABSTRACT This work is the result of reflection on the experience of teaching and learning in the course ”Education in the context of globalization” as well as of the analysis of the representations of teachers studying the Master’s in Education, their concepts in relation to this society in rapid change which leaves little time to think. The first analysis focuses on ”the teacher’s life outside of the classroom”: the burden, anxiousness, insecurity and uncertainty they feel as a result of globalization. Next is a reflection on ”the teacher’s life in the classroom” and the disastrous repercussions of globalization within them. Finally, an alternative is proposed for the profes­sional teacher development: reflection on teaching.
La Formación De Competencias Directivas Mediante La Transmisión De Experiencias De Directores Retirados
Authors: La Bandera Trejo Carlos
Published: May 2021

Resumen La globalización obliga a incrementar la competitividad de las empresas, que resulta afectada cuando éstas aceleran el tiempo de retiro de sus directivos llevándose sus experiencias consigo. Al mismo tiempo, la ciencia médica busca mantener sanos a los adultos mayores a edades más avanzadas. Se presenta una paradoja entre ambas tendencias. Para solucionarla, incrementar la productivi­dad y competitividad y evitar la pérdida de capital intelectual en la empresa, se propone un modelo de formación de competencias directivas aprovechando las experiencias de los directores retirados que, además, los revalora en beneficio de la sociedad. En este trabajo se presentará un análisis del contexto, del problema y del enfoque propuesto. Abstract Globalisation forces the increase of companies’ competitiveness, which is affect­ed when these accelerate the time of retirement of their managers taking their experience with themselves. At the same time, medical science looks after elders’ health in late stages of life. A paradox between both tendencies appears. In order to solve it, increase the productivity and competitiveness and avoid the loss of in­tellectual capital in the company, a model of formation of directive competitions is set out taking advantage of the retired directors’ experience, which, in addition revalue, them in benefit of the society. In this work, we will present an analysis of the context, of the problem and the proposed approach.

Bienes De Consumo Cotidiano, Cultura Material E Identidad A Lo Largo Del Camino Real En El Norte De México
Authors: Fournier Garcí­a Patricia , Zavala Moynahan Bridget M.
Published: May 2021

Resumen A lo largo del Camino Real los habitantes usaron la cultura material - incluyendo objetos de uso cotidiano destinados a la preparación, almacenamiento y servicio de alimentos- para construir y reafirmar aspectos identitarios. En este ensayo, derivado de nuestras investigaciones concluidas en 2013, consideramos patrones de consumo de estos objetos desde el siglo XVIII hasta inicios del XX reflejados en inventarios de bienes de la época y contextos arqueológicos de la Nueva Vizcaya colonial (hoy Durango y Chihuahua). Contrastamos entre las vajillas que emplearon las personas con alto poder adquisitivo y los de uso entre el común de la gente, según los registros documentales y los contextos arqueológicos con diversas funciones y temporalidades registrados en el valle del Rí­o Sextí­n, Durango.   Palabras clave: Nueva Vizcaya, Camino Real, consumo cotidiano, haciendas, identidad Abstract   The residents along the Royal Road used material culture, including everyday life objects related to the preparation, storage and serving of foods, to construct and reaffirm aspects of their social identity and status. In this article, based on our research finished in 2013, we consider their consumption as reflected in 18th to 20th century documents and archaeological contexts from southern New Biscay (modern-day Durango and Chihuahua). We compare ceramic goods used by individuals with high economic standing with those employed by commoners, as registered in historical sources and data from archaeological sites with diverse functions and temporalities, recorded in the Sextí­n valley, Durango.

School Dropouts among Girls from Rural Areas
Authors:   Sultan Moulay Slimane University, BETTACH Ilham , OUAHIDI Meriem
Published: May 2021

Women’s growth and development are inevitably bound up with access to education. However, in Morocco, the current status of women’s education is disappointing. In fact, the World Bank statistics of rural girls’ school retention are at an alarming rate due to the social attitudes and cultural practices that devalue women. Morocco is no exception and it is among the countries where the number of illiterates is high despite all the efforts made by the government and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) to eradicate illiteracy and dropouts among girls from rural areas. Research related to this phenomenon failed to address the issues, its causes, repercussions, and recommendations. The present article is an attempt to provide a comprehensive account of the present-day situation of school dropouts in the Moroccan society in light of the Education for All goals (EFA). The manuscript seeks to outline the main reasons that make schooling difficult if not impossible and to suggest some recommendations that the Moroccan policymakers should carefully adopt to overcome all the barriers. The current paper goes further to understand the causes and effects of this scourge which delays the development of women, the family and society at large.
An Electronic training program to treat errors of reading aloud in the English language among students with learning difficulties during the emerging Covid-19
Authors:   King Khalid University, KHASAWNEH Mohamad Ahmad Saleem
Published: May 2021

This study aims at identifying, analysing, and classifying the mistakes that students make in grades (second, third, and fourth) in the elementary stage in Aseer in reading aloud and developing a proposed program to treat these errors. The study used the experimental approach. The study sample consisted of (72) male and female students from the study population, representing the three grade levels. 24 students (12 males and 12 females) were taken from each grade, and the study sample was taken from seven schools. The results of the study showed that there are no statistically significant differences in students ’reading errors due to the gender variable. The prevalence of reading errors in students’ readings is not related to males or females or vice versa. Despite the difference between the reader's gender and the teacher’s gender, the differences came free of any clear statistical significance. The study revealed statistically significant differences in students’ mastery of some reading skills due to the gender variable. The skills that showed differences are observing punctuation, meaning skills, and reading speed. Females were better than males in these skills, and there were no statistically significant differences in the remaining reading skills between the genders. The study recommended preparing training courses to familiarize male and female teachers with the latest findings of studies related to reading to employ them in educational situations and providing teachers with methods to diagnose students' weakness in reading.
Effect of head teachers’ partnerships collaboration on inclusive education implementation
Authors:   University of Nairobi, SHIWANI Douglas Iisgi
Published: May 2021

The study investigated effect of head teachers’ partnerships collaboration on inclusive education implementation. Bartalanffy (1969) open systems advocates for head teachers to coordinate partnerships to address the lack of support systems for inclusive education. Descriptive survey was applied, and Chi-square tested the null hypothesis. Questionnaires were administered to 71 head teachers and 297 teachers, supplemented by document analysis. Interview was used on eight Quality Assurance Standards Officers (QASOs) and four Education Assessment Resource Centre Officers (EARCs). Quantitative data was coded and analysed using descriptive statistics, and presented in frequency tables and bar graphs. Qualitative data was coded, transcribed and presented in narrative form. Quantitative and qualitative data findings were discussed in juxtaposition with confirming or refuting the research evidence, and reinforcing the interpretation. The study established that majority of schools lacked well- structured coordinated partnerships. This implied that there was low partnership participation in schools’ programs as referenced by head teachers and teachers on provision for specialized teaching and learning resources, 63.4% and 63.3%; assessment of learners, 64.8% and 70.4%; funds outsourcing, 69% and 69.7%. It was recommended that head teachers should increase capacities in partnerships collaboration, and institute well-structured coordinated framework for partnerships engagement for effective inclusive education implementation.
The Practice of Tunisian physical education teachers at the end of initial training during the preparation for professional life
Authors:   Institut Supérieur du Sport et de l’Education Physique de Ksar-Said, HAWANI Aymen
Published: May 2021

Background and Study Aim: The purpose of this article is to describe and analyze students' disruptive behavior and teacher trainee responses before and after a “Body Language and to Speak in Public” training module for school teachers at the end of initial training physical education teachers (PET). Material and Methods: Delayed video scope analysis was conducted using the "Disciplinary Incidents Observation System (DIOS)" of “Brunelle J.” (1996) [7]. Results: The data collected, it can be deduced that the courses directed by trainee students during work readiness internships show a high degree of disruption, since there is a rate of 1.3 and 1.01 DB per minute. Conclusions: The frequency of onset of disruptive behaviors (DB1 and DB2) is slightly lower in sessions facilitated by trainees who have been trained in "Body language and public speaking". Similarly, at the level of disruptive behaviors (DB3), the trainees who underwent the training realized a greater decrease in the frequency of appearance of these behaviors. Faced with these disruptive behaviors, the trainees who attended the training were slightly more interactive in their reactions during the sessions. The impact that this study could have on the initial training of physical education teachers (PET). The results of our studies illustrate the reality of the practice of future teachers during the internship preparation to professional life. Indeed, they constitute a repertoire to perceive the different disruptive behaviors of students and the reactions of trainee students to these behaviors. By way of this presentation, our work can certainly be used as part of the initial training of PET and in formalizing the professional skills repository.
Droit à l’éducation de l’enfant : une mise en perspective à travers la question de l’abandon scolaire au Sénégal
Authors:   Université Gaston Berger de Saint-Louis, DIALLO Thierno Malick , FALL Mouhamadou
Published: May 2021

L’objectif de cet article est d’apporter une contribution au débat sur le droit à l’éducation de l’enfant. Précisément, notre propos est d’étudier les raisons d’abandon scolaire des jeunes enfants fréquentant l’école primaire à partir des données de la dernière enquête nationale de suivi de la pauvreté. Pour ce faire, nous avons d’abord utilisé les statistiques bivariées et les méthodes de l’analyse en composantes principales et de la classification ascendante hiérarchique pour effectuer une analyse de type descriptif des enfants décrocheurs, et avons ensuite identifié les facteurs explicatifs de l’abandon scolaire à l’aide d’un modèle LOGIT. La démarche retenue a permis de mettre en évidence un certain nombre de résultats. Il est ressorti de l’étude que l’abandon est un phénomène à caractère multidimensionnel et que la plupart des enfants quittent l’école avant d’atteindre la dernière classe du cycle primaire. Les caractéristiques individuelles (en particulier l’âge et le sexe de l’enfant) et familiales (notamment le niveau d’éducation, la catégorie socioprofessionnelle et la religion du chef de ménage), ainsi que les mauvais résultats scolaires (en l’occurrence l’échec à l’examen) sont les principaux déterminants de l’abandon scolaire des jeunes enfants au Sénégal.

Independent Review and Investigation Mechanisms to Prevent Future Pandemics: A Proposed Way Forward
Authors: Lehtimaki Susanna , Nishtar Kassim , Reidy Aisling , Darehshori Sara , Painter Andrew , Schwalbe Nina
Published: May 2021

Based on the proposal by the European Council, more than 25 heads of state and the World Health Organization (WHO) support development of an international treaty on pandemics, that planned to be negotiated under the auspices of WHO, will be presented to the World Health Assembly in May 2021. Given that the treaty alone is not enough to ensure compliance, triggers for a high-level political response is required. To this end, to inform the design of a support system, we explored institutional mechanismsi with a mandate to review compliance with key international agreements in their signatory countries and conduct independent country investigations in a manner that manages sovereign considerations. Based on our review, there is no single global mechanism that could serve as a model in its own right. There is, however, potential to combine aspects of existing mechanisms to support a strong, enforceable treaty. These aspects include: • Periodic review - based on the model of human rights treaties, with independent experts as the authorized monitoring body to ensure the independence. If made obligatory, the review could support compliance with the treaty. • On-site investigations - based on the model by the Committee on Prevention of Torture according to which visits cannot be blocked by state parties. • Non-negotiable design principles - including accountability; independence; transparency and data sharing; speed; emphasis on capabilities; and incentives. • Technical support - WHO can provide countries with technical assistance, tools, monitoring, and assessment to enhance emergency preparedness and response.
Precovery Observations Confirm the Capture Time of Asteroid 2020 CD3 as Earth’s Minimoon

Published: May 2021

Asteroid 2020 CD3 was discovered on 2020 February 15 by the Catalina Sky Survey while it was temporarily captured in a geocentric orbit before escaping Earth’s Hill sphere on 2020 March 7. We searched archival images and found precoveries of 2020 CD3 from the Dark Energy Camera and Catalina Sky survey. The Dark Energy Camera images yielded three observations on 2019 January 17, while the Catalina Sky Survey images yielded four observations on 2019 January 24 from the Mt. Lemmon telescope and four observations on 2018 May 9 from the Mt. Bigelow telescope. These precovery observations allowed us to refine the orbit of 2020 CD3 and determine that it was captured in a geocentric orbit on 2017 September 15 after a close approach to the Moon at a distance of 11,974 ± 10 km. We analyzed the trajectory of 2020 CD3 to look for potential Earth impacts within the next 100 years and find a ≳1% probability of an impact between 2061 and 2120 depending on nongravitational force model assumptions. The small size of 2020 CD3, about 1 to 2 m, makes any potential impact harmless.
Searching for Extragalactic Exoplanetary Systems: The Curious Case of BD+20 2457

Published: May 2021

Planets and their host stars carry a long-term memory of their origin in their chemical compositions. Thus, identifying planets formed in different environments improves our understating of planetary formation. Although restricted to detecting exoplanets within the solar vicinity, we might be able to detect planetary systems that formed in small external galaxies and later merged with the Milky Way. In fact, Gaia data have unequivocally shown that the Galaxy underwent several significant minor mergers during its first billion years of formation. The stellar debris of one of these mergers, Gaia-Enceladus (GE), is thought to have built up most of the stellar halo in the solar neighborhood. In this Letter, we investigate the origin of known planet-host stars combining data from the NASA Exoplanet Archive with Gaia EDR3 and large-scale spectroscopic surveys. We adopt a kinematic criterion and identify 42 stars associated with the Milky Way’s thick disk and one halo star. The only halo star identified, BD+20 2457, known to harbor two exoplanets, moves on a retrograde and highly eccentric orbit. Its chemical abundance pattern situates the star at the border between the thick disk, the old halo, and accreted populations. Given its orbital parameters and chemical properties, we suggest that BD+20 2457 is likely formed in the protodisk of the Galaxy, but we do not exclude the possibility of the star belonging to the debris of GE. Finally, we estimate a minimum age and mass limit for the star, which has implications for its planetary system and will be tested with future Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite observations.

The low frequency cutoffs f

lo
and the observed plasma frequency f

p
of 176 type III radio bursts are investigated in this paper. These events are observed by the Parker Solar Probe when it is in the encounter phase from the first to the fifth orbit. The result shows that the distribution of cutoffs f

lo
is widely spread between 200 kHz and 1.6 MHz. While the plasma frequency f

p
at the spacecraft is between 50 and 250 kHz, which is almost all smaller than f

lo
. The result also shows that the maximum probability distribution of f

lo
(∼680 kHz) is remarkably higher than that observed by Ulysses and Wind (∼100 kHz) in previous research. Three possible reasons, i.e., solar activity intensity, event electing criteria, and radiation attenuation effect, are also preliminarily discussed.

The aim of this study was to compare the joint amplitude, spine angulation and displacement of the center of mass during the execution of gafieira samba with and without high heels at different speed. In addition, the reproducibility of the movement was tested. Fifteen experienced dancers performed a sequence of gafieira samba steps under the conditions: high heels (7.5cm) and flats at two speeds according to the beat of music (72 and 96bpm). Kinematic analysis was performed on the Vicon® system with 11 cameras (100 Hz). Twenty-one reflective markers were positioned over the participants' bodies to calculate the center of mass and joint angles of the lower limbs and spine. Reproducibility was determined by the intraclass correlation coefficient and the comparison between conditions was tested by a Two-way Analysis of Variance, with the factors footwear and speed. The results indicated to a moderate to very high reproducibility in all variables analyzed. No differences were found between lumbar curvature, thoracic and displacement of the center of mass. There was no interaction between types of footwear and step execution speed, but analyzing the main factors, there was a decrease in the left ankle plantiflexion angle with increasing speed. The ankle angles showed a significant decrease under the condition flats when compared to high heels. In conclusion, high heels do not alter lumbar curvature, displacement of the center of mass and knee and hip joint amplitude in the execution of gafieira samba.

Published: May 2021

Objetivamos explorar a interpretação de imagens de lutadoras de artes marciais mistas (MMA) postadas no Instagram. Nos apoiamos nos debates pós-estruturalistas, especialmente aqueles que tratam do corpo e gênero. Para a coleta de dados, utilizamos dois grupos focais com estudantes universitários(as), um constituído por mulheres e outro por homens. A partir de uma análise de conteúdo, quatro categorias discursivas emergiram das interações grupais. Evidenciamos a permanência de estereótipos usuais sobre a participação da mulher no esporte, com o olhar dos homens tendencioso para a objetivação do corpo das lutadoras. As mulheres mostraram-se mais sensíveis às feminilidades plurais. A tendência de comparação entre atletas masculinos e femininos foi observada em ambos os grupos. Constata-se que a autoapresentação das lutadoras negocia, em certa medida, com a inconformidade de uma feminilidade hegemônica no espaço do Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC).

Conductive polymers are a class of engineering materials which possess remarkably reversible redox property and atypical combination of characteristics of plastics and metals. The potential usefulness of conductive polymers has grown exceedingly in the technological field such as telecommunication, electronics, storage systems and protective devices. The prospective of conductive polymers has further deepened the interest of researchers for their applications in several areas. Some of the popular types of conductive polymers are polythiophene, polyindole, polyacetylene, polypyrrole, polyphenyl vinylene, polyaniline, Poly (3,4ethylenedioxythiophene), which are produced via redox and chemical (CM) or electrochemical (ECM) oxidation processes. Polymers are doped to introduce charge carriers known as polarons and bipolarons into them, to make them conductive. Conductive polymers have limitations such as a poor mechanical characteristic or poor flexibility, low process-ability and poor biocompatibility, which have made researchers investigate different chemical modification methods. Conductive polymers have potential applications in the field of supercapacitors, solar cells, biosensors, chemical sensors and actuators, tissue engineering, e.t.c. This article has attempted to provide an up to date review on different aspects of conductive polymers such as production, doping, applications and conductivity of selected conductive polymers.

Authors: Pereyaslov Andriy , Nykyforuk Olesya
Published: May 2021

Sirenomelia in monochorionic diamniotic twins is extremely rare pathology. According to the literature data, there are only 24 cases, in which one or both fetuses had sirenomelia. The incidence rate of sirenomelia ranged from 1.1 to 4.2/60,000–100,000 deliveries and associated with the high lethality during early perinatal period. Here, we present a monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancy, where one fetus was diagnosed with sirenomelia associated with agenesia of one kidney and bladder, and the co-twin was absolutely healthy.

Published: May 2021

Background:

Due to the difficulty in the diagnosis, high morbidity, and mortality, many empirical antimicrobial treatments have been used on suspicion of neonatal sepsis, leading to inappropriate use of broad-spectrum antibiotics and prolonged duration of therapies.

Aim:

The aim of this study was to characterize the antimicrobial use in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in 4 years.

Methods:

This was a retrospective study from January 2013 to December 2016, in a 6-bed NICU from a private small hospital from the South of Brazil. To evaluate the antibiotic use, all results were quantified using days of therapy (DOT) measurement per 100 patients-day (DOT/100PD).

Results:

Three hundred and sixty-six patients were admitted into the unit. Total antimicrobial use decreased from 78.7 DOT/100PD in 2013 to 73.3 DOT/100PD in 2016. Individually, we observed a reduction from 22.2 to 15.9 DOT/100PD in ampicillin use and 22.7 to 14.2 DOT/100PD for gentamicin. Vancomycin utilization was stable 12.9 DOT/100PD, while oxacillin utilization is increased from 0.6 DOT/100PD to 7.8 DOT/100PD.

Conclusions:

The changes in antibiotic use during the years could be the result of the multiprofessional efforts in practicing antibiotic stewardship.
Food Protein-Induced Enterocolitis Mimics Surgical Emergency in a Neonate
Authors: Bawazir Razan , Bawazir Osama A. , Bawazir Abdullah
Published: May 2021

Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) is described as a non-IgE-mediated food sensitivity of the gastrointestinal tract, especially in infants and children. This case demonstrates that FPIES can present with extreme symptoms that mimic surgical emergency like necrotizing enterocolitis and physician should be suspicious of this in neonate with rectal bleeding.
Intraperitoneal Extravasation of Total Parenteral Nutrition
Authors: Akar Selahattin
Published: May 2021

Umbilical vein catheter (UVC) is a commonly used intervention in neonatal intensive care units for total parenteral nutrition (TPN), antibiotic therapy, and investigations, especially in very low birth weight infants. In this report, a rare but life-threatening complication of UVC developed in two preterm infants was presented. Of two infants admitted to our neonatal intensive care unit due to prematurity, the first infant developed abdominal distension and a decreased urinary output on the 2nd day and the second infant on the 5th day. Enteral intake of the patients was discontinued with the presumed diagnosis of necrotizing enterocolitis, and broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy was initiated. There were free ascites on the abdominal ultrasonography. Macroscopic and microscopic examination of the fluid sample taken by paracentesis was compatible with TPN. Intraperitoneal extravasation of UVC, which is a rare but life-threatening complication of UVC and can be confused with necrotizing enterocolitis, should be kept in mind, especially in infants receiving TPN infusion from the UVC.

Objective:

This study aimed to estimate the prevalence and the compliance of early diagnosis and early management of congenital hypothyroidism (CH).

Materials and Methods:

This retrospective cohort study gathered data from all infants born over 10 years from January 2007 to December 2016. All children diagnosed with CH as per standard definition of cord and follow-up thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels were analyzed to calculate the prevalence and the compliance rates to early treatment goal and time normalization of TSH. These children were evaluated for neurodevelopment outcomes.

Results:

31,311 newborns screened for CH with a prevalence over 10 years of 1:3085 per live births. Among the 11 cases, five were found to have thyroid dysgenesis (1:6200), 5 thyroid dyshormonogenesis (1:6200), and only one case of generalized resistance to thyroid hormone (1:31000). The compliance with an early diagnosis within the first 2 weeks was 100%, and compliance with the initial treatment goal was 40%. Normalization was achieved in all cases within 16 weeks; however, all had normal hearing, vision, and development at their current age.

Conclusion:

The prevalence of CH in this single tertiary care center is similar to national and international data. Dyshormonogenesis has a higher prevalence than global data. Moreover, compliance with early diagnosis is excellent due to the strict adherent cord TSH protocol. The compliance with the initial treatment goal in our center is comparable with international data. However, large population-based studies are needed to establish a benchmark on such compliance rates. The long-term hearing, vision, and development milestone assessments of diagnosed cases were age appropriate.
Simultaneous Endoscopic Management of Urethral Duplication and Postposterior Sagittal Anorectoplasty Urethral Diverticulum in a Boy with Anorectal Malformation
Authors: Ratan Simmi K. , Kumar Chiranjiv , Aggarwal Satish Kumar
Published: May 2021

We report a case of urethral duplication with high anorectal malformation (ARM). A 12-year-old boy who had undergone transverse colostomy on day 2 of life and posterior sagittal anorectoplasty (PSARP) for ARM (rectobulbar fistula) at 8 years and also had urinary dribbling from a midscrotal opening in addition to normal voiding, presented with recurrent urinary tract infections and dysuria. Midscrotal dribbling had continued postoperatively. Colostomy had been closed 3 months after PSARP. Investigations revealed a large urethral diverticulum at the site of rectourethral fistula due to a segment of the gut being left behind during fistula closure. In addition, he had a sagittal urethral duplication originating at bulbar urethra and opening externally at midscrotum. The highlight of this report is successful endoscopic management of both the urethral duplication and the diverticulum.

Published: May 2021

Context:

Congenital lung malformation (CLM) is a rare developmental anomaly of the lower respiratory tract. The purposes are to define if the presence of respiratory symptoms, in CLM may affect surgical outcomes and to define optimal timing for surgery in asymptomatic patients.

Settings and Design:

Retrospective review of patients with CLM from 2004 to 2018. Asymptomatic and symptomatic patients were compared. Moreover, asymptomatic patients were stratified according to age at surgery (< or >6 months).

Subjects and Methods:

Demographic data, prenatal diagnosis, symptoms, CLM's characteristics, operative and postoperative data were collected. Patients were divided into two groups based on the presence or none of respiratory symptoms.

Statistical Analysis:

Data were compared using the Fisher's exact test for qualitative values and Mann-Whitney test for quantitative values P < 0.05 was statistically significant.

Results:

One hundred and eighty-six patients were treated. Asymptomatic were 137 (74%), while symptomatic were 49 (26%). The most common presenting symptoms were respiratory distress (n = 30, 61%) followed by pneumonia (n = 18, 38%). Prenatal diagnosis of CLM was performed in 98% of asymptomatic patients compared to 30% of symptomatic (P = 0.001). Surgical excision was performed in all cases, and in 50% by thoracoscopy, without difference between the two groups. In 97% of all cases, a lung sparing surgery was performed without difference between the groups. Symptoms are significantly associated with older age, location in the upper lobe, and lobar emphysema. Length of stay in intensive care, postoperative complications, and reintervention rate were higher in the symptomatic group. Eighty-one asymptomatic patients underwent surgery <6 months of life; they had a lower rate of surgical complications (2%) compared with those >6 months (7%).

Conclusions:

The present study describes a comprehensive picture of CLM. In addition, we emphasize the role of early postnatal management and thoracoscopic surgery, also before 6 months of life, to prevent the onset of symptoms that are associated with worse outcomes.
Needling for Suture Track Fistula

Published: May 2021

A day care procedure for ablation of epithelium of suture track fistula (STF) is described with a tip of hypodermic needle under surface anesthesia. STF is a minor but annoying and frustrating complication following hypospadias surgery. Parents and patients are worried of soiling of dress from dribbling of urine through STF during urination. It is embarrassing particularly in the presence of peers. Nevertheless, no specific treatment is found in literature for its remedy other than the conventional procedures for repair of fistula. Here, we describe a simple day care procedure under surface anesthesia with prilocaine ointment. Thirty-five out of 42 STFs healed in single or repeat attempts with this 'needling' procedure.
