Published: May 2023

Introduction: Head injury is one of the most critical conditions and has a serious neurological outcome if not treated promptly. Effective initial assessment and timely intervention ensures a favourable outcome. To achieve this, many assessment scoring systems have been devised over the years of which Glasgow coma scale (GCS) is the most widely used but it does have a few drawbacks. A newer coma scale, the FOUR score (Full Outline of UnResponsiveness) evaluates four components. The aim of the present study is to compare the GCS and FOUR score in traumatic head injury patients in predicting the better outcome. The outcome scoring is done by GCOS (Glasgow Coma Outcome Scale).
Methods and Materials: One twenty-five patients with traumatic head injury were recruited between September 2019 to September 2021 in a tertiary health care centre. For all these cases, GCS and FOUR score on the day of arrival in emergency department (ED) was calculated by residents attending the case in ED and the outcome was scored using GCOS. The correlation between all three scores was then calculated.
Results: The present study revealed the major cause of traumatic head injury as road traffic accidents and most of them being males. A significant strong positive correlation was found in FOUR score when compared with GCS in the prediction of outcome in traumatic brain injury patients.
Conclusion: It was concluded that the FOUR score is more beneficial to that of GCS and can be used in outcome assessment in traumatic head injury and intubated patients. Thus, FOUR score is a better tool for prognostication.

Published: May 2023

Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is a disorder seen as age advances, characterized by the accumulation of amyloid within the leptomeninges and cerebral blood vessels. Lobar hemorrhages are the most common clinical manifestation seen. Cognitive decline due to repeated cerebral microhemorrhages in one of the rare presentations seen mainly in the elderly. We present here a case of a seventy year old female patient who presented with a one year history of progressive cognitive impairment. She was detected to have CAA on imaging with both cortical microbleeds and extensive superficial siderosis. She was started on cholinesterase inhibitors and antipsychotics for her symptoms. Antiplatelet agents were avoided due to increased risk of hemorrhage. This report highlights the importance of CAA as a cause of cognitive decline in elderly patients and also its therapeutic implications
Factors influencing the need for post operative ventilation in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage
Authors: Bohara Sandeep , Thapa Amit
Published: May 2023

Introduction: Patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) frequently require monitoring, however planned ventilatory support may not be necessary in the post-operative period. In resource constraints scenarios, reserving an intensive care unit (ICU) bed and ventilator may lead to problems like delay in surgery and definite care. With this study, we aim to identify the factors that influence the need for post-operative ventilation in patients with aSAH.
Methodology: A retrospective study over a period of six years of patients who underwent surgical clipping of aneurysm and were not intubated pre-operatively was conducted. Aneurysm was confirmed by Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) or Computerized Tomographic Angiography (CTA). Demographic data and clinico-radiological factors like Hunt and Hess grade, Modified Fischers Grade and aneurysm location were collected.
Results: Of the 62 patients identified in the study period, 17 patients were excluded as they were intubated in the preoperative period. Of the 45 patients included, there were 15 male patients. Of these only 23 (51.11%) patients failed to be successfully extubated. Clinical factors such as Hunt and Hess score ≥ 3 (p value<0.001), WFNS grade ≥3 (p value<0.001) and intraoperative blood loss ≥ 425 ml (p value=0.001) were associated with higher chances of failure to extubate. Presenting GCS score of ≥14 (p value<0.001) had higher chances of extubation postoperatively. However, radiological factors like Modified Fischers Grade and aneurysm location had no significant association.
Conclusion: The demand for post-operative ICU and ventilatory support in aneurysmal SAH is over estimated. Simple clinical factors can better predict the need for post-operative ventilation and reduce the burden of reserving ICU bed.
Current understanding and the potential future of spinal fusion
Authors: Sharma Krishna
Published: May 2023

Pathologies of spine like trauma, infection, malignancy or congenital problems can cause disturbed structural integrity of spine causing deformity and displacement of spine. This causes compression or damage on spinal cord and roots, which the spine is supposed to protect. In such situations, the spine needs to be decompressed, realigned and fused in that position, so that further injury is prevented. Spinal fusion is a natural process of healing of bones where the structural stability is restored. However, the alignment and strength achieved by natural process of fusion may be inadequate and slow, with persistent compression on neural structure. Natural process of spinal fusion, thus may need to be correctly re-aligned and then further fixed by grafts and instruments. To achieve faster and stronger fusion, the process may need to be further augmented by pharmacological agents, graft expanders and graft enhancers.

Cholera Toxin Inhibits Tumor Necrosis Factor Secretion By Human Monocytes and Alveolar Macrophages
Authors: Miller Julia A. , Beezhold Donald H. , Lenox Robert J. , Kostyal David A. , Noti John D.
Published: May 2023

Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine which has a strong influence in destructive, inflammatory, and fibrotic lung disorders. Monocytes and alveolar macrophages (AM) are effective producers of TNF when stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or Mycoplasma fermentans (MP). We tested the hypothesis that a cholera toxin (CT)-sensitive G protein is involved in the secretion of TNF. Both AM and monocytes were stimulated with LPS or MP both with and without CT. Supernatants were harvested and examined by bioassay for TNF activity. The results of the TNF bioassay revealed marked inhibition of LPS-and MP-induced TNF secretion in both populations of cells when preincubated with CT. This inhibition was seen in freshly isolated AM and overnight incubation. In monocytes, however, the cells became refractory to stimulation by LPS or MP following overnight incubation. Next we examined the kinetics of CT inhibition of TNF production in both AM and monocytes by adding CT at various times following stimulation of the cells. Both cell types had a similar time course for CT inhibition of TNF secretion. Finally, we examined mRNA for TNFa by Northern Blot analysis in monocytes treated with LPS both with and without CT. No inhibition of TNF mRNA was observed in LPS-stimulated monocytes treated with CT. These findings indicate that TNF secretion by both AM and monocytes can be inhibited by cholera toxin (CT), thus implicating the Gsα protein in TNF secretion by these cells.
Blood donors wanted: narrative innovation on TikTok to enable mobilization
Authors: Martínez-Sanz Raquel , Arribas-Urrutia Amaia
Published: May 2023

The explosive success of TikTok is one of a long list of phenomena that are transforming audiovisual relationships, creation, and consumption (Gómez-García; Vicent-Ibáñez, 2022). At the same time, social networks are demonstrating a capacity for outreach, awareness, and activism through innovative narratives that impact the audience. Therefore, we ask if and how, in addition to entertaining and being a place to find the latest trends, TikTok can help promote health activism linked to blood donation –an act of social responsibility– the collection of which has been in sharp decline for years (Carter et al., 2011; Huis-in ‘t-Veld et al., 2019). Through multimodal discourse analysis (Kress, 2012), we determine the characteristics, significance, and communicative resources of the tiktoks that the platform grouped under the hashtag #donasangre [#DonateBlood], ultimately comparing them with the perception and relationship that a large group of young university students expressed in focus groups. Among the results, we highlight how content on TikTok is reinterpreted and appropriated, as well as the false myths perpetuated among young people that keep them from donating and reinforce the importance of health institutions taking an active role in the online conversation and integrating narrative innovation into their content creation dynamics. Qualitative analysis of comments (6,215) revealed that there is an audience that “comes together” (Juris, 2012) and whose members reaffirm their status as donors and whose experience tempers the idea of donating being stressful and scary.
İon Tuculescu’nun resimlerinde halk kültürünün izleri
Authors: Özbay Dalila
Published: May 2023

II Dünya Savaşı’nın toplumlarda yarattığı travma, birçok alanda hasar oluşturduğu gibi sanat dünyasında da derin izler bırakmıştı. Bu durum hem batı Avrupa hem de doğu Avrupa Romen resim sanatında da yaşanmıştır.
Tarihsel olaylar sonucunda savaş sonrası Romanya’daki yeni yönetim düzeni, Romen sanatçılarının dünyasını bölerek çalışma biçimini derinden etkilemiştir. Bazı sanatçılar sosyalist gerçekçilik akımında yer alarak yeni devletin sürdürdüğü yönetim şeklini benimserken bazı sanatçılar da semboller kullanarak farklı görüş sergilemişlerdir. Resim yapmaktan vazgeçen bir kısım sanatçının yanında hiçbir politik görüş içermeden sanat üretimini sürdüren sanatçılar da olmuştur. Bunlardan biri olan İon Țuculescu’nun (1910-1962) çalışmaları ne sosyalist gerçekçilik akımında yer almakta, ne de resimleri dönemin ideolojisine karşı semboller içermektedir. Farklı alanlardan gelen birikimlerle tıp ve biyoloji fakültelerinden mezun olan sanatçı, halk sanatından beslenip yöresel ve kültürel değerleri harmanlayıp, daha önce Romen resim sanatında işlenmemiş kendine özgü yeni bir ifade dili oluşturarak, halk sanatının elemanlarına plastik değer kazandırmıştır. Böylece Țuculescu, Romen resim sanatında örneği az görülen bir sanatçı olmayı başarmıştır.
Bu araştırmanın amacı, halk sanatından beslenen İon Țuculescu’nun sanatsal kazanımlarının hangi şartlarda ve nasıl oluştuğunu ortaya koymaktır. Ayrıca bu çalışmada resimleri analiz edildikten sonra Romen resim sanatındaki özgün yeri de biyografik bilgilerle birlikte verilmektedir.
The tension between contemporary and modern art: The emergence of new media in Turkey, the development of digital art and the changing institutions/institutional structure
Authors: Tokdil Ezgi
Published: May 2023

As a new art form of a new world that technology has changed and transformed, new media art and other forms of creation associated with it have different stages of development in different countries. Questions such as the development of this form in Turkish art, the visibility of the artists working in this field in the international art field, what qualities the created works have and what stages they have passed through to capture the current digital identity (aesthetics) have not yet been fully clarified in the literature. In this context, the research takes an important role in filling the gap in the literature by chronologically addressing this change process in Turkish art and analyzing the progress of new media art from past to present. In accordance with this purpose; first of all, the relationship between modern art and contemporary art and the changing dimensions of cultural structure are examined. In this context, new media arts and digitalized art creations, which exist as a new form of contemporary/contemporary art, are included in the research through the development of the screen phenomenon and analyzed. In the continuation of the research, the development of new media in Turkey, the pioneering steps taken in this context, the first exhibitions, different creation mechanisms, collaborations in the formation process, alternatives for exhibition strategies are analyzed. Then, the development of new media and the process of change in institutions and institutional structures are discussed in two different aspects in terms of the exhibition process of the work and the creation process, and the collaborations of different disciplines in the creation process of digital art are examined with examples from the world and Turkey. The research, in which the foundations of the change between contemporary and modern art are analyzed through new media art and digitalized art creations, is a qualitative research using the relational analysis method and the analyzed works are included in the research with purposeful element sampling.

Published: May 2023

Study Design: Retrospective study.Purpose: To investigate the radiological phenotype, patient and surgery-related risk factors influencing postoperative clinical outcome for cervical myelopathy caused by ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament involving C2 following posterior instrumented laminectomy and fusion.Overview of Literature: Ossified posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) is caused by ectopic ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament. It can cause neurological impairment and severe disability. For multilevel cervical OPLL, studies have shown good neurological recovery following cord decompression via either an anterior or posterior approach. There is, however, a lacunae in the literature regarding the outcomes of patients with OPLL extending to C2 and above (C2 [+]).Methods: We retrospectively studied 61 patients with C2 (+) OPLL who had posterior instrumented laminectomy and fusion at Ganga Hospital, Coimbatore between July 2011 and January 2021, with a minimum follow-up of 2 years. Data on demographics, clinical outcomes, radiology, and post-surgical outcomes were gathered.Results: Among 61 patients, 56 were males and five were females. The OPLL pattern was mixed in 32 cases (52.5%), continuous in 26 cases (42.6%), segmental in two cases (3.3%), and circumscribed in one patient (1.6%). All of our patients showed signs of neurological improvement after a 24-month follow-up. The mean preoperative modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association (mJOA) score was 10.6 (range, 5–11) and the postoperative mJOA score was 15.8 (range, 12–18). The recovery rate was >75% in 27 patients (44.6%), >50% in 32 patients (52.5%), and >25% in two patients (3.3%). The average recovery rate was 71% (range, 33%–100%). The independent risk factor for predicting recovery rate is the preoperative mJOA score.Conclusions: In C2 (+) OPLL, posterior instrumented decompression and fusion provide a relatively safe approach and satisfactory results.

Authors: Knudsen Ståle
Published: May 2023

Through a series of case studies in diverse regions of the world, this book explores how transnational Norwegian energy and extractive industries handle corporate social responsibility (CSR) when operating abroad in places such as China, Brazil, and Turkey. With significant state ownership and embeddedness in the Nordic societal model, Norwegian capitalism is often represented as “benign” or ethical. By tracing CSR policy and practice—from headquarters to operations—this volume critically explores the workings of Norwegian corporate capitalism and its engagement with key issues of responsibility, accountability, and sustainability.

Dismantling the father's house?
Authors: Grant Barbara M.
Published: May 2023

The traditional master–apprentice architecture of doctoral supervision is undoubtedly undergoing change. In the anglophone world, the father's house of supervision with its almost exclusively male occupants was first established in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It persisted, largely undisputed, until the final decades of the twentieth century, when doctoral numbers bloomed throughout the West and more and more women (and others) took occupancy of the house as students and supervisors (advisors). In this article, I sketch the gendered origins of doctoral supervision in the West and then review the extant (anglophone) literature on women doctoral supervisors. In examining that small body of work, I ask two questions: What are women doing to supervision? And is the woman supervisor really ‘just a man’? My conclusions underscore the complexity of ongoing efforts to dismantle the father's house of supervision.

Published: May 2023

Social media linkage to audience behaviors has remained a flashpoint for social scientists especially in the post pandemic world. The researchers, therefore, attempt to comprehend how exposure to social media affected different segments of social life including mental health; children safety; domestic violence; virtual education and social media usage protocols in the light of the evolving literature on COVID-19 and the use of social media. The review of the relevant literature indicated that social media exposure has been significantly associated with mental health issues like Secondary Traumatic Stress (STS), anxiety and depression. Fear of the future served as the strongest mediator between functional impairment of health and media usage. It was also suggested that uncertain socio-economic situations along with social isolation can potentially increase the risk of domestic violence to which children are most vulnerable. To contain exposure to violent social media content development of effective remote access support mechanisms was stressed. Similarly, In the post-pandemic scenario educationalists realized that certain elements of online education should be permanently incorporated in the routine curriculum to cope up with future challenges.

Authors: Flores Karina , Chávez José , Fonseca Milton , Mendoza Alicia , Morillo Mauricio
Published: May 2023

Introducción: El manejo posquirúrgico del dolor se considera uno de los desafíos más importantes en cirugía colorrectal. Los Antiinflamatorios No Esteroidales (AINES) aún se mantienen como los fármacos de primera línea, sin embargo, nuevas evidencias sugieren una relación con complicaciones como fuga anastomótica. Objetivo: Determinar el efecto de los antiinflamatorios no esteroidales sobre las tasas de fuga anastomótica en pacientes sometidos a cirugía colorrectal. Metodología: Se efectuó una revisión sistemática y metaanálisis de estudios comparativos entre el uso de AINES versus no AINES y la ocurrencia de fuga anastomótica. Se buscó evidencia publicada entre enero del 2010 a marzo del 2022 en las bases de EMBASE, Pubmed y CINAHL. Resultados: En general, el uso de AINES se asoció a un incremento de riesgo de fuga anastomótica (OR: 1.55, IC95 %: 1.25 – 1.93, p<0.0001). Los AINES no selectivos se asoció a un aumento del riesgo de fuga anastomótica (OR: 1.75, IC95 %: 1.43– 2.14, p<0.00001). El diclofenaco se asoció con la ocurrencia de fuga anastomótica (OR: 2.64, IC95 %: 1.86 – 3.76, p<0.00001), pero, no se encontró dicha asociación con ketorolaco (OR: 1.36, IC95 %: 0.89 – 2.07, p=0.16). Conclusiones: Los AINES no selectivos parecen asociarse a un incremento en el riesgo de fuga anastomótica luego de cirugía colorrectal. La prescripción de estos fármacos debe realizarse con prudencia. Un se requiere una mayor cantidad de estudios para esclarecer si, el uso de AINES para el manejo del dolor posquirúrgico en pacientes sometidos a cirugía colorrectal es segura o no.
Cause and motion meet manner in translation
Authors: Dragan Ruxandra
Published: May 2023

The SEND‐NP‐V‐ING‐PP construction, the transitive variant of the V‐V‐ING‐OBL pattern, also incorporates the Goal of Motion (cf. Dragan 2016b). According to Talmy (1985; 2000), the Goal of Motion is favored by speakers of Germanic languages to describe motion events, but it is not generally available in Romance, where motion is typically expressed by Path verbs and optional PPs, and Manner is omitted. Building on Talmy's claims, the article explores the compensation strategies selected to translate the SEND‐NP‐V‐ING‐PP construction from English into Romanian and relates the resulting syntactic structures to his theory of lexicalization patterns. It is shown that, at least in the translation of narratives, Talmy's lexicalization pattern for Romance is the exception rather than the rule as Manner is frequently translated to preserve the visual dynamism of the scenes.
What would one do if they were the black sheep?
Authors: Selyem Alexandru Cornel
Published: May 2023

The purpose of this paper is to present how Romanian learners of English process a specific idiom related to color. In order to do this, I carried out an experiment with three groups of students from the school where I teach English as a foreign language. The experiment was just a small fraction of several others which as a whole made my Ph.D. Thesis. My research thesis is concerned with how non-native speakers of English process idioms related to weather, anger, and color. To understand their way of processing figurative language I carried out several experiments for each set of idioms. Each experiment consisted of two distinct parts: during the first part I gave my students the idioms in a context-free version and asked them to offer translations, whereas, during the second part, I gave them the same idioms but in a contextualized instance. I assumed that some of my students would be influenced by their linguistic background, their knowledge of English, and their mother tongue – Romanian. Many of my assumptions proved to be right. However, there were instances when students were able to provide proper translations of some idioms even from the context-free encounter of them. For others, contexts proved valuable instances of vocabulary that actually helped them grasp the figurative meaning. The choice of this specific idiom – black sheep – was taken bearing in mind the existence of a similar idiom in Romanian – oaia neagra. Both in Romanian and English this expression is mainly used with its figurative meaning despite the fact that the literal meaning makes sense as well.
Discourse recognition and analysis of hate speech in Virginia Woolf's “Mrs Dalloway”
Authors: Horvath Francisc
Published: May 2023

Hate speech is a notion that many people see as intuitively easy to grasp, while many others deny it is even an understandable concept. The present article aims to identify and examine the hate speech situations manifested in Virginia Woolf’s famous novel, “Mrs. Dalloway”. An alternative reading of the novel “Mrs. Dalloway” explores the seemingly minor character, but with a substantial impact on the unfolding of the plotline, Miss Kilman represents a secondary objective. Following the triangle, Clarissa Dalloway - her daughter, Elizabeth, and Doris Kilman, the present essay tries to explain the situations in which hate speech occurs in “Mrs. Dalloway”.
